Everyone looks like a douche bag now. Adam curry, John C. Dvorak.
It's Thursday, October 23 2014. It's time for your gizmo nation
media assassination episode 663. This is no agenda. Second that
allows in Jan broadcasting from FEMA Region six in the capital
of the DuroStar. State Austin Tejas in the morning, everybody.
I'm Adam curry
and from Northern Silicon Valley where we are actually coming up
on show 666. What? I'm John C. Dvorak, Levin Buzzkill. Rough,
rough. You've been
ill. And I wrote it down.
I want to stop you right there. Yeah,
I know. Exactly. I know. I know what you're gonna say, No, I
know what you're gonna say. You Pro. I wrote it down. You're
gonna say you're sick too often?
Oh, no, I wasn't gonna say that. You're wrong. Oh. I was gonna
tell the people that are gonna, that are gonna listen to the
next three hours. to 45 it should be but it goes to three.
And I could that string a guy who can be sick as a dog. When
he goes on the air. He performs like a pro. Sounds normally he
doesn't sound sick. Last time he was sick. He didn't sound sick
at all.
So I lose something in the in the lower register of my voice
and I can't quite the pressure coming out of my lungs is not
enough to project. It's right there. Is
this Louise proximity effect to make it?
It's hard. It's a
little different to make yourself aware. But yeah, you're
blowing my theory.
Well, so imagine, imagine that imagine a world after Sunday
show that of course, I must have already picked this up
somewhere. And I think it was at this hoity toity thing we had
Friday in Austin, which was pop Austin,
which was Boston very, I would
have to say a valent Valley and try by the art Alliance, Austin
commercial kids who are trying to get some modern art going in
Austin. But it's been a more coastal urban type setting,
which is desperately lacking in in Austin. And Mickey and I were
in there for about a total of eight minutes and like, Okay,
let's go. It was a good try. And no doubt about it. But it was a
Warren was a big, a big hall type setting where they do
weddings in town. So it was kind of cool. But they had all it
doesn't really matter. I'm pretty sure that's where I
picked it up. So Sunday, we have this benefit dinner we were
invited to after the show, which I typically don't do because I'm
already tired. And now I'm just already tired. And this was for
the exact theater. With all of the perform. It was beautiful
benefit. And we were invited by Eric, the constitutional lawyer
who let's put it this way. His last name is the name of the
street in front of the theater. So I mean, he's built this
place. Now where his arm candy and it's always fun. You may get
a free show free dinner
on one side in Mickey's on the other this guy.
Exactly. That's how we that's how we do it with it with Eric.
And and it's outside underneath a tent and it wasn't warm at
all. But I'm just like, wow, I'm sweating. And I thought it was
because I had a me was the material of my shirt. And Mickey
was like, Are you okay, so you feel okay, but I'm just
sweating. I don't know. It's just was on the Friday event?
No, no, this is the Sunday event. Oh, so you had already
been sick? That's what that's where I think. Yeah. Yeah. So we
come home at like 1030 or 11. And we go to bed and within 15
minutes, I'm shivering like before, like a like a monkey
with no hair.
Oh, you
got the heebie jeebies. And this turns into of course, you know,
that's because your internal thermostat is adjusting and it
needs to, you know, it needs to kickstart the sweat procedure.
And Mickey's like, what's wrong? I'm sick. And we take my
temperature. One Oh, 1.4. Now we know that one. Oh, 1.5 is the
Ebola magic number. And wait.
I thought it was one. Oh, that was what was yours again. I had
one. That was point four. That was the magic. No,
no one no one no one no. 1.5 As I looked it up. That's the magic
Ebola. You're
eating from your eyes, your ears and your mouth.
Well, Mickey Mickey kept saying oh, I can't wait for the
explosive diarrhea part. When is that gonna happen? But it will.
I'll tell you this at a certain point. It was one Oh 2.9. So
that was that was a little that was a little more extreme than I
had had bargained for. And this goes on for 48 hours straight.
Are you may have had Noro did you have the craps? No, not at
all. Nothing? No, no, it wasn't Nora then
No, maybe it was just the seasonal flu virus or, but you
know, at a certain point, I think
it's not a two to 48 hour product. Oh, it's a longer than
that.
Yeah. So I don't know what this was. It was just well, so and
then of course, you know, it
was something going around.
Yeah. And I'm thinking, how funny will it be for the guy
who's telling everyone this Ebola is such a big hoax to then
die from Ebola? That'll be funny.
That would be great. That
would be legendary, wouldn't it?
The books on that one? And then of course I did. That thought
actually crossed your mind.
Very briefly, kind of in a haha funny but not Not really.
Laughter kind of wait for a moment just for a brief brief
moment. Oh, or you know, that will certainly like I can just
see the meeting. Hey, you know what? We're so sick and tired.
This guy was given this just kill him. Make it look like he's
a little thicker. Make him look like a bola blood glow his head
explode. So of course, I did what we always do here. I went
to see the witch on the hill. And she, man she really did. She
did great for me yesterday.
Yeah, what did the witch do?
The witch. Then she she lives in this house on the hill. Wars.
And yeah, with with chicken
on a house on the hill with that kind of spooky or in a cave.
She's on the house on the hill. And you know, with with the the
iron gate that doesn't even open you have to walk around the
gate. My name is Deva de VA. And she's about five foot one. And
she's got a million cats and chickens walking through the
house that's to the house.
And that's the chickens in the house. Yeah,
yeah. Everything works. Then, she just takes me up to her her
treatment room. Yeah, I'm not kidding, John. This is real. And
that, no, I see her I see her off and be. And then she
massages as she says his whole massage and then removes
entities. And she mentioned that she does. And she talks to it.
She says no. She talks to it to the entity. Yeah. And then she
takes it out.
It's what you're saying, I'm sorry, I got mixed up.
And, and I woke up this morning, I had a great rest. And I felt
thoroughly refreshed. Now I'll tell you modern medicine today,
outside of you know, mechanical medicine, which has gotten
really good and our tools, you know, for fractures, and we can
do great things with stance. And we have great news on the real
mechanics of of the human body. And of course, antibiotics. And
we're extremely advanced, but everything else isn't just, you
know, pain management, we've got that down. And all this other
stuff. You know, it's like, your body is much, I think much more
sophisticated healing itself. So I'd rather have a witch doctor,
the Voodoo guy do some stuff and my body takes over and, and it
really works. All of a sudden, I could just imagine going to the
hospital. First of all, I would I'd have to sit there and say,
Yeah, I think I did visit West Africa, you know, just to see
what would happen. You know,
it'd be great. Days and isolation.
I don't think I could resist. Hey, but Ebola is over. John.
It's everybody's cured. Everybody's cured.
I know. Some of these guys got cured pretty
quickly. And in Nigeria. Nigeria is clean. Yeah, it's yeah, it's
a free
one case or they were afraid to win. It's because it showed up
in Lagos, which is one of the world's most densely populated
cities. If it didn't go crazy there. It's not good. This is
just diseases is a flop. Well,
here's what's interesting. Did you know what the what the exact
number of days is that the W H O. Requires for there to be no
new cases of Ebola and therefore to proclaim and area Ebola free?
Seven? Nope. 10 No,
it's a magic number John, not 33. But it is and so it's three
No. 42
Oh, 42. Yes. as well. It hasn't been 42 days since the Well,
okay. Maybe there's as we know, is
the answer to all things in the universe according to the
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Yes. 42. And so the
nurse Amber Vinson, she's Ebola free. Everyone, everyone's get
cleared up. It's, you know, you bring in this Tsar guy. And it's
amazing what you
can do. Exactly. Just got there. But let's
just let's just really state one obvious thing. This guy Ron
Klain, I think the only thing more offensive than this Ebola a
hoax. Is that guys rug? Oh, my goodness. That is the worst
toupee I've ever seen in my life
is well, I don't think it's the worst but it's pretty bad.
Come on that thing is horrendous he
wears it backwards. Someone should
create Ron cleans rug, you know a Twitter account? He certainly
is a toggle. Okay. He hasn't talked to anybody. Oh, actually
I got a clip. It's this is before he was the Tsar. And it's
a little out of context. But this is just a I think the
question was, what he thinks about the world in general, or
here's the here's his answer.
I think the
I think the top leadership is showing
our world today is how to deal with a continuing, growing
population, the world and all the resource demands places on
the world, and populations in Africa and Asia, that lack
resources to have a healthy happy life. And I think we've
got to find a way to make the world work for everyone.
Yeah, by killing a lot of those people in Africa. That's
Genesis. He's a huge sounds a bit like it.
Yeah. No, it sounds like that, to me, basically, is one of our
basic theses on the whole thing. As we'll stick with it was a
patient
via email, John, I said, Dude, I'm gonna be light. You're gonna
have to help. And I actually last night after after the witch
visit I Kate, stuff kicked in, I got a couple clips and stuff
kind of work.
What was that? We just got a note from some guy who sent us a
clip where were Obama's makes the comment that?
Yeah, I have the home. Here's what here's the note. Bart
Olson, right. On last Sunday show 24 minutes in, you're
playing an Obama clip about broken travel and no travel ban?
Can you use the phrase with a dis dis ease in place? That term
is commonly used when we are the one placing something like
troops in place. He made it sound like it was a strategy.
And of course, I pulled the clip. And let's have a listen to
that.
People do not readily disclose their information, they may
engage in something called Broken trap, essentially
breaking up their trips, so that they can hide the fact that they
have been to one of these countries where there's a
disease in place. As a result, we may end up getting less
information now.
Do we have a disease in place yet?
Wow. Well, this that these in place. And by the way, with the
NSA and all these hot shots following us all around, how
come they can't keep track of this, somebody's traveling on an
airplane, which is all public documents, as far as I can tell.
All I'm seeing is that the NSA is probably more interested in
us than they are and actually doing what we thought they're
supposed to be doing. Oh, yeah. I don't see how broken travel
can take place in a in a surveillance state like this.
I'm watching. I was watching persons of interest, which is
got a very interesting perspective on this sort of
surveillance state. And I have a clip that I think kind of
summarizes both there, there there. snideness and also kind
of kind of a maybe a truth, clean clip, what's happened is
that there's these two machines competing for control of the
earth. And they're trying to get information on somebody who is
floating around and that either somebody's trying to kill
somebody or somebody's gonna get killed, and they need to find
out as much information as they can. And that to the to the
principles of the show. We're discussing this, including the
guy who invented one of the machines clean,
no evidence, so she knew the election was fixed. Perhaps even
she was unaware. Either way, she's working for the wrong
side.
We have to find something. You tried the NSA.
We can't hack down but we can go to the NSA sources, the
backdoors. I'll do Google, you take Yahoo
go to the backdoors Batman. That's right.
You google you take Yahoo. That was just his line of the day
that show
that's pretty funny.
I want to circle back to Ebola, but there was something I was
reading from two different sources about the NSA. The
extracurricular activity of the NSA is very interesting. Let's
see of course, we know that Kaiser Alexander left and
started his own consulting company but apparently he didn't
millions. He has hired on a part time basis. The current CTO of
the NSA who works for Kaiser Alexander's iron net outfit 20
hours a week.
What Yeah, yeah, what? Yeah.
Yeah, I have. It's
ridiculous that you wish you could do this.
You think that's it? Oh, hold on. Let me see them. Current a
former US This is from Reuters current a former US intelligence
official some of whom requested anonymity. Of course, I bet to
discuss personnel matters. So they could not recall a previous
instance in which a high ranking US intelligence official was
allowed to concurrently work for a private sector firm. Let's see
Dowd wanted to join iron net. And the deal was devised as a
way to keep down technological expertise at least partly within
the US government, rather than losing in permanently to the
private sector. Obviously, this is what it is. Well,
we this is great scam. Yeah, we
in order to attract, you know, this kind of high quality
talent, we have to, we have to make good deals with them. I
wanted Pat to stay at the NSA. He wanted to come on board,
Alexander said he acknowledged the hybrid arrangement. It's
awkward, but I felt that his leaving the government was the
wrong thing for the NSA and our nation. Hey, you better go hire
Iron Men, because these guys, they can spy on all of your
competitors.
Yeah, that's what it sounds like. And then this is other
woman.
This is a much more extensive story. Her name is Shea she's
also at the NSA, let me get bring it up here. This is a
surprisingly enough, this was a story from BuzzFeed who wants to
while have some real, real reporting, unless this is some
kind of native ad. Who knows? You can't trust them. Really.
This woman Her name is her she and her husband Shay. Her
husband, James Shea was her name looking for her name. Teresa,
they have a company called SIG ant consulting. And,
interestingly enough SIG in consulting contracts with DRS
signal solutions, which does contracting for the NSA. She's
she, she's working for the NSA and then in a roundabout way
working for the NSA through a secondary contractor. The whole
thing is it's is ludicrous. And you know, if you want if there's
a huge distrust in government today, and this doesn't help,
no, of course not. But think of our president is the chief
executive think of the United States government or any
government as a as a corporation. Any company over
two P two employees sucks after a while it's just true.
Especially when it has hundreds of 1000s. It sucks. And it
becomes corrupt. And it's it happens. It just happens. I
quickly back to Ebola just because I found a couple of
things that I think will interest everybody I did want to
play because we were talking about this on Sunday, I want to
play a short clip from the man who I've lost all respect for
Ted Cruz, who jumped on the bandwagon the polluted the
politics of fear about the flight bans from countries that
have no direct flights to the United States, but do have Ebola
out look for?
Sorry, let me stop you. I'm not completely. I mean, I'm not a
big Ted Cruz fan. I don't I think he's creepy. I'm just
creepy. And so the reason I don't care much for him, but I
think he has to do this because the Republicans have a litany
and this is it. I mean, like I said in the newsletter, if
anyone you know, get their newsletter, they should. You
know, this is the part of the Republican strategy is to create
fear to get you to vote Republican, as opposed to the
Democrats strategy, which is to create fear, to get you to vote
Democrat,
right. But I really hadn't caught him in doing anything
like this. And now he's doing it. So like everybody knew him
screw
outlook, there were no doubts, mistakes that were made up and
down the line at the level of the hospital. And
I think it's also the sincerity with which he says it.
The health officials implementing protocols, but but
I'll tell you, the biggest mistake that continues to be
made is is now more than two weeks into this, we continue to
allow open commercial air flights from countries that have
been stricken by Ebola. That doesn't make any sense. We've
got upwards of 150 people a day, coming from countries with live
active Ebola outbreaks. For over two weeks, I've been calling on
the administration to take the common sense stand of suspending
commercial air travel out of these countries until we get the
air travel under under control. And for whatever reason the
Obama White House doesn't want to do so.
Yeah. Okay. So we have no
lights from Africa.
Let me see I have here or what was interesting? Yes. On the BBC
this morning, the CEO of GlaxoSmithKline. On the they are
fast tracking in Ebola vaccine. Oh, which I didn't I never
really saw the announcement that said, yeah, we've got it. We've
discovered we've cracked it. I think that that's a total
mistake. Huge PR opportunity. And it's just like, oh, yeah,
no, we got one, you know, when they should have there should
have been like champagne corks. You're the president standing up
everyone, you know, the queen. Good job, chaps. I knew he had
the technology. Now. None of that just yet. We're fast
tracking it. And we need indemnification and we need
money.
GSK is chief executive. Sir Andrew witty, joins us from
there now. Good morning. Good morning. Clearly that our
efforts going ahead to try to speed up the development of a
vaccine. How quickly do you think in ideal circumstances
could you get to the to the point where it really is
available for for widespread use?
So we're moving first of all, we're moving as fast as we
possibly can. We're, we should at GSK be in a position if all
goes well, in the next few months to have the initial
vaccine doses available just before Christmas. Now, I think
the right thing to do and at least the current expectation is
that those initial doses will be used around healthcare workers
in a clinical trial and
love to be a nurse their
environment to make sure we know exactly what the efficacy of
this vaccine is. And then as we move into 2015, we'd be in a
position to quite rapidly expand the number of doses available as
we go through the year. But I think we all need to recognize
that this is an unprecedented pace of development. We're
literally doing in maybe five or six months, what would normally
take five or six years.
That sounds quite unbelievable.
Sounds like bullcrap money
unprecedented. Now, here's the now we know, the Russians, by
the way, also have three of these vaccines that they're
working on. And that never gets discussed. And the Canadians say
they've got one and that never gets discussed. And no one's
seen as just bull bull. Yeah, manipulation. I think the reason
that you see you said Bull has come dropped off the new cycle,
I think is because the I know this is a little cynical, but I
think that the Democrat run media is told to get off it.
What are your realize that they're being used by the
Republicans?
I just want to hopefully we can finish it all up. But I do think
I have. Let's just listen to this guy for a second. He runs a
pretty big company. And then one more interesting clip that
pertains to the US and then we'll be done with it.
Um, as far as you're concerned, What guarantees do you need
about indemnity funding?
But in the US, of course, we have indemnification for our
pharma companies. For vaccines specifically in the UK, I guess
not. I think these guys got burned somehow. Although that
doesn't sound like the truth to me on the h1 and one, because
you lost a lot in the vaccine for bird flu. And the I think
they didn't lose anything. They sold everything and just got
thrown out, right?
I'm not sure. Yeah, maybe the stockpiling
of Tamiflu because you weren't indemnified? What do you want?
What guarantees do you need? Or do you? Well, I
think in in the early phase, so for this phase I just described,
we don't need any indemnities around that. But I think if it's
an irrelevant when a vaccine, particularly for vaccine gets
used in a broad way, before all the normal trials have been
undertaken, and if it's been used in let's call it an
unconventional environment without the normal healthcare
controls, then I think it's reasonable that there should be
some level of indemnification because the vaccine is
essentially being used in an emergency situation before we've
all had the chance to confirm its absolute profile. And that's
a situation where we've looked for some kind of
indemnification.
Now, listen to what he's doing. This guy is cranking it up. He
expects to sell this vaccine and lots of it
either from governments or from multilateral agencies. And do
you need
those guarantees before this work will take place?
No, we are doing that. So we've all the work at GSK has started
before anybody asked us to do anything. And I can tell you
we've we've progressed very quickly in the last four months
in the vaccine technical development, I've already
ordered five production lines to allow us to expand production as
we go through the end of this year and into next year and all
that's been done without any guarantee of any indemnification
or any financing because we we know we we know we are saddled
with a potential vaccine and we need to get on and make it
available as fast as possible. Okay,
five production lines.
Did I did you read the article that can't I, by the way, I have
two clips. I gotta run on this too before you kill this
segment. Did you read the article about the nurse who came
out and said that they're putting Ebola in vaccines that
they didn't and that's how it really got started.
That's the one in Ghana. Yeah. The the. The Red Cross has been
given it to everybody. Yeah. It's it had it in the show
notes. I keep putting it. We never talked about it. Yeah, we
did briefly. We did. We did. We discussed the New York Times
debunking the Ebola conspiracies.
Oh, right. The New York Times debunking that could Yeah.
Because you know, it's not just about Ebola conspiracies. I
watch. I don't watch the show often. And when I do, I'm always
I always I'm just kind of flabbergasted that what looks
appears to be a teenage kid has his own talk show. Oh, there's a
Sinatra kid, where he just reads notes in it, but they put him on
a track and this is a good example. It's a two parter. They
put him on a track to somehow bring make bats part of the
discussion of how this Ebola got started. Because Because patient
zero that little two year old. It's never really been fully
explained how he got this disease in the first place. It'd
be a likely candidate for a shot if you think about it at that
age. But let's play these this is the he brings on an expert
who has a good creds, and the expert just kind of just keeps
drifting away from the point that that Ron wants to make and
Ron has no skills. This is Ronan Sinatra on MSNBC. Sinatra. He
can't fool the guy back on track. He just has to keep
reading from his notes and it's actually kind of pathetic to
watch him work. But this play Ronan bats one
in contact with the virus through the process of
butchering.
It's something that we've looked at on the show there's a growing
body of literature that says that actually deforestation
literature. Even mean,
I think I have that in the morning. growing body of
literature, my morning confessional I have a growing
body and flushing towards the Gulf of Mexico
40 That thanks, writers. I'm sorry, he says a lot of things
like this, I'll be interrupt but
we know we should be using
that growing body of literature that's growing body of
literature,
in contact with the virus through the process of
butchering.
It's something that we've looked at on the show, there's a
growing body of literature that says that actually deforestation
and poverty that then drives people in newly deforested
areas. And that climate change, right, I guess, includes the
countries that are the origin points of this outbreak, to eat
bushmeat are at the heart of this, what policy changes need
to be considered if we want to decouple that deforestation.
We have to recognize that hunting wildlife and eating
bushmeat is certainly not unique to this area. And it's something
that's done out of necessity. There aren't other alternatives.
So it's naive to impose a policy that says hunting all together.
But I think we need to find ways to do it smarter and educate
people to be safer about which animals they choose to hunt, and
also personal hygienic practices like hand washing and your
butchering animals that may reduce the risk of contracting a
disease, Ebola or something else.
Hey, ooga booga booga
Did you bring a hand sanitizer?
Squeeze bottom
listen, you stupid Bush, man. You need your hands. What does
that stuff called the hand sanitizer?
Yeah, goop.
Did you bring the ham goop? Shoda one
of the giant bottles these huge site coolers filled with
chlorinated water that is used only to rinse off your hand
Purell
pure oil. Thank you cheering sure rail. Oh, I gotta you know
if I laugh really loud with this post Ebola. I get really
lightheaded.
Oh, good word and Pharrell. I
just gonna get nothing but be nasty, man. That is another
reason we don't have suits. Anyway. Is that the end of that?
No,
no, I'm sure there's one more seconds of your goodness. Let's
rock it. Tell
us about the specifics of transmissibility from these bats
transmissibility. This guy is too
smart. Guy debunks it immediately which just throws us
Ronan for a loop. Gosh,
is this just bushmeat or is this also inadvertent contact other
by the way?
What is Rona know about bushmeat. Seriously with these
bats. Well, it's
interesting in the case of Ebola, we actually don't have
evidence of direct transmission from bats to people in this
outbreak. We don't know which wildlife species may have been
responsible for that first case.
Oh, where's the producer of this show? I got
the wrong guy on
I'm telling you, here's what here's how the meeting went.
Hey, John. I got an idea for the ronin show. Yeah, let's see have
this, this kid's a bushmeat a lot, that'll be really funny. Be
funny,
but in past Ebola outbreaks, it's been primates, great apes,
gorillas are chimpanzees that have died from Ebola or have
been infected. And hunters will either kill these animals or
collect already dead animals and then come in contact with bodily
fluids just the same way this virus goes from person to
person, it can go from an animal that's been infected, or a dead
animal that's been infected into a person, presumably with bats,
the process of butchering, would put someone in contact with
their bodily fluids. And if a bat were infected, a person
could get exposed.
Here's the other interesting facet of how prominent bats have
become in the literature about a bowl right now.
Hey, you know what, you know, we have an Austin bats,
you got a lot of bats famous. Well, here's the way I saw this
thing. There's two things here that thank you for
making me laugh. By the way, they're really cleared up a lot.
A lot of shifts. That's good.
Tutsis need comment. One is the naivete of the producers of
MSNBC, they actually bought into the bad thesis, and assumed that
when they bring an expert on, he's just going to confirm it,
because everybody knows it's true. That's what it was. It was
bad. And so the guy doesn't do that, because these people are
so stupid. And, and the other thing I forgot what the other
point was that it was the real main point I wanted to make,
which is that there's a there's assumptions that are made on the
shows as to what the truth is.
Well, this is exactly how it happens. You know, these memes
get out there. And then oh, yeah, it's about the bats and
gotta get a bat expert. The Who Who are these producers? Look at
the host. What's the producer going to be behind that? Come
on? It's it's dumping. We have more people listening to this
show than watch the Sinatra kid believe me.
Well, here we go into the show the Sinatra kid gets a little
freaky. And he has to bring it back to bats. Because obviously
this whole thing was about bats. I
have all the graphics, the lower thirds, it's it's Halloween,
John is bats are perfect. It's the time of the season. It's
everything that'll get that'll pack them in. Yeah. So here we
go. Part two,
five, this 30 person rapid response a bola medical support
team.
Oh, I'm sorry, that was my clip. And I'm just so zonked out,
here's bats thrown into. So there's
some research into why they're immune to the virus. There are a
reservoir carrier that's been tested and is known, but they
don't exhibit symptoms more often than not explain that. So
this has been a tremendous area of fascination for researchers
looking at bat borne viruses that seem to have deadly
consequences when they get into people. But bats don't seem to
be affected. Now, the truth is, that's maybe minimally affected,
they don't exhibit signs of disease the way people do. And
that's probably because of a long term relationship, because
they're bats. They're not people.
That bats and these viruses have had over 1000s and 1000s of
years, to the point where the virus and their immune system
have come to an understanding when a virus gets into a new
species, like a person with an immune system that's never seen
that virus before it can have really deadly consequences. So
this is just a case of evolution that makes the virus more
benign. So bats are able to carry it and when it jumps,
species, it causes disease. I
know there's a lot of research going on right now to decode
exactly what those evolutionary traits are. Wow, really, there's
a lot of research going on right now to decode exactly what those
evolutionary traits are. The kid may be a genius, but you know,
come on.
I don't see that he's a genius. He's a genius at what
passing tests causes disease.
And I know there's a lot of research going on right now to
decode exactly what those evolutionary traits are is at
higher metabolism due to their ability to fly and Kennedy those
lessons be extracted for human treatments. That's
right. We know so little about the bad immune system or bat
physiology is Doogie Howser.
This kid. Okay. Onward. Yeah. So
my two clips. One is this kind of rapid response team, Ebola
rapid response team that the Department of Defense is putting
together which begs very obvious question.
And that question is, Well,
are you going to deploy a military team for an Ebola
emergency inside the United the United States okay, there's that
we have something that kind of says that you can't do that.
I thought that was overturned in the military authorization bill.
Posse calm and tada TARDIS.
I think you can do that now. I mean, you can't by the
Constitution, but nobody's nobody has sued over the
possibility.
Well, here's the question that was posed to Rear Admiral Kirby
who has this. He talks out of the side of his mouth. You don't
like not at all no, I don't like him at all. The guy who's who
Matt leap, slapped down viciously. Hey, Matt Lee slabs
in vicious Lee Um, which was an excellent little number he did
on him. And then he just has his he has a permanent smug smile
and just, I don't like
I don't, I can't think of this guy's face. I'm gonna look him
up while you play this clip and see if he can. Kirby what's the
first name?
I think it's John Kirby is at James Kirby
is an admiral or general, Rear Admiral Kirby just looked at
this 30 person
rapid response, a bola medical support team, I guess, better
late than never, and also how it will help prevent and protect in
this country?
Well, this team is going to be on what we call prepared to
deploy motors. There's about 20 nurses, five infectious disease
experts and five trainers. Now they're gonna get down to Texas
for some training this week, so that they have all the protocols
in place and they know what to do the preparation seems
like Texas where they don't know how to do it. Why would you send
them to Texas to train, this is where we mess everything up. And
then they're gonna be put on this.
Sorry, I was just gonna say I would like to advise people out
there to look bad Admiral Kirby and then hit images on Google
search and go look at images of this guy. Holy crap. What a
douchebag. Yeah,
he's a total douche knuckle. Hey, he's got all that fruit
salad and every this the guy who said like barely got a history
doing University of South Florida. I don't know about the
history of Russia.
It's got kind of a British mile and kind of the upper lip.
He looks like a Yes, man.
Yes, these pictures are unbelievable. This guy just
clownish Anyway, go on. They have all
the protocols in place, and they know what to do the
preparations. And then they're going to be put on this prepare
to deploy order status, where they can be ready in about 72
hours, that period will last for 30 days. So it'll be on that
ready status for about 30 days to go assist civilian medical
authorities anywhere in the country that might need them.
Enrolled Richard Haass to explain how it's impossible
legally, for US armed forces to take on the sort of role you're
describing within the United States, given the so called
Posse Comitatus rules and what they're allowed to do within our
territory.
Sure, we actually do have the legal authorities to do this.
This isn't gonna violate Posse Comitatus, which is a law
enforcement role. This is nothing more than potential
support and I stress potential support to civilian medical
authorities if and only if they asked for that, but there's no
violation of Posse Comitatus, the Northern Command commander
has the authorities that he needs to get this team ready to
go.
Not that he answered the question, but he just said Shut
up, man, we have the legal authority, but only as a
potential and to play a medical assistants role not in the
policing role or something like that. That's why it's a wedding.
Yeah, that's fine. It's a way to get the troops on the street. So
people get used to it not that they look any different from us
nowadays. Hey, write this down in the book if you don't mind.
I'd like to even though it may be over here and of course it
had to be over here we had to end this I said I'm surprised I
thought it would end after the election but they just run clean
guy the the Ebola to pay. He really pulled it off very
quickly. I'm gonna put Gabon on the map for Ebola for an Ebola
strike. Gabon, which is shell has just hit it big and some gas
there.
So I just wanted to see if that we can find a correlation. So
put that on the map and let's see if we got born get some
Ebola.
They have nobody get the yellow highlighter. Yeah, so as far as
I know, they have no Ebola right now. Yeah. And they just may be
on deck to get some Ebola and somebody bola help. I want to
make sure and then maybe just we'll wrap it up with this nice
little USA Today report because you know when USA Today has the
report, and it's kind of a general all clear, you know,
like, It's okay citizens Ebola is over, you may resume normal
activity.
Wednesday marks the first official day on the job for Ron
Klain, the new Ebola czar his hair started two days earlier
clean will head up the government's effort against the
deadly virus both at home and in West Africa. Claims work begins
as an NBC freelance cameraman leaves the Nebraska Medical
Center after testing negative for the virus on social media he
wrote the knowledge that there's no more virus in my blood is a
profound relief. I'm so lucky.
It's interesting how this is put there's no more virus in my
blood. And the nurse everyone's saying this the same way?
Yeah, this is a meme they've been saying they said about the
nurse Yeah, why
is that? What am I what am I missing? I think virus free but
virus in my blood. I don't get it.
I think that this is a little crack potty. But I think as the
it's to try to make it kind of commonplace that once you're
through with the Ebola you don't In other words, you don't have
any do anything in your blood that would indicate you ever had
a bola so no one could ever prove that you did or didn't
because they never did in the first place.
I you know, I'm totally there with you. Make sense? In this
case, it makes sense.
Everyone who got sick could feel like this. Also good news for
Dallas nurse Nina Pham, the first to contract Ebola while
caring for Thomas Eric Duncan. She has now been upgraded to
good condition. The Chief Clinical Officer at Texas
Presbyterian Hospital where fam worked, sat down with CNN and
admits the hospital quote, fell short in their treatment of
Duncan.
We missed a diagnosis on the 25th and 26th. Then we're we've
said over and again, that that's something that we deeply regret.
And wish we could have hit the diagnosis right then
meanwhile, the Department of Homeland Security announced
anyone traveling from the Ebola plagued areas of Liberia, Guinea
or Sierra Leone, must land at one of five US airports, or
enhance screening measures are now in place. That list includes
New York's JFK International, Washington Dulles, New Jersey's
Newark Airport, Chicago's O'Hare and Hartsfield Jackson
International and Atlanta. Ebola has killed more than 4500 place
can
you stop and back it up? Sure. To what part to the part before
they named the before they started talking about the
airport, which is a little bit back. It's about
how the Department of Homeland Security announced anyone
traveling from the Ebola played areas of Liberia Guinea or
Sierra
berry earlier.
No, that's yeah.
You want this? Do you want to play?
I was just thought they said something they didn't say
already announced
anyone traveling from the Ebola plagued areas of Liberia. Okay,
fine. We don't want to hear it again. Well, it's fine. It's all
good. Everybody all clear. Ebola is over. And if I want so
cynical, I think this this candy Navia thing? If not, let's just
put it this way. The coverage certainly is completely
overblown, and welcome to the party candidate Navia. Did you
see the front newspaper the front covers of all front pages
of all the newspapers. Tear on the hill, they attack us, you
know, we will not stand down. Oh, my goodness
maniac with a gun. One guy.
Before we go there, though. John. I'm just the timekeeper
here, I would like to thank you for your courage and say in the
morning to you John C. Dvorak.
Well, in the morning to you, too, I want to say in the
morning to you, Adam curry in the morning to all ships at sea
boots on the ground feet in the air subs in the water. And all
the Dames and all the nights out there and in
the morning to all of our human resources, who I think now are
able to check in at night. radio.com no agenda stream.com
Thanks for all being here. I know urgent chat dotnet, of
course, and artists, Brian tweed brought us the sorry, Brian
tweed bought brought us the artwork for 662. Again, a lot of
submissions. And I just wanted to regarding the submissions.
Try not to or try to make if you're gonna put letters or
words in the art, make it big. You can't put little thought
balloons and stuff. And it really rarely works. Because
it'll I have to shrink some of that stuff down at least by 50%
in order to get it into the album art, but boy do we love
some of the work that is being done for us.
I will say this, this is true. So we got a couple of
outstanding donations. Let me you get a letter from because
there's no letter that came with this donation from Matthew L.
wart. I'll check the L wa are meant to do this earlier and I
forgot all about it. Yeah, I
think I have it. Here it is. I got it. Got it. Okay.
There's a portion not to read on the ANA portion for on the air.
He wanted to send the longhand note. Okay. Fortunately read on
okay. Let me go back to the spreadsheet. And Matthew l Ward
is the top donor at 66666 matches, which is interesting
because he beat anonymous in Alpharetta, Georgia who donated
66600 which I find to be quite quite amusing. Okay, let me get
to the note. This is Matthew Alward in San Antonio, which is
as you know, just down the road. Yep. Just down the road. Is it
like a short five hour drive? Big State big state.
Congratulation on your seventh anniversary. And in addition to
the being the show anniversary, it's also my 30th birthday. You
haven't know it yet, but we don't know this. You got to get
your pen out.
Okay, pen is out, which consists of this modern thing called a
computer and I'm going to put him on the birthday list and
it's going to be 30 Yep. It's been listening to the show for
over three years now. And I've been a major douchebag who never
donated. I like douche bags have never done anything come in
right away big with 66666 For sure. I am ashamed of my
douchebaggery and hope to redeem myself with Is beast donation
and future donations your show has made my commute and time at
work much more interesting and entertaining. It's about time I
give you value for value back the value for value that I've
received your recent shows, analyzing and deconstructing the
Ebola nonsense and ISIL fearmongering has been
outstanding. Actually let me the way he said it has been
outstanding. From listening to your show, it opened my eyes to
just to just how corrupt the media is and with your recent
revelation regarding the repeal of Smith Mundt I can now I
cannot I now cannot help but laugh and much of the news I get
from the mainstream media. I agree with Adam show me the ISIL
beheading videos, and the people with Ebola bleeding out of their
eyes, ears and mouth if the media can show us the dead
Palestine, which is our point that the media can show the dead
Palestinian children's surely we can handle a beheading a real
one and Ebola patients keep up the great work and here's to
another seven years like the mice have a birthday shout out
and let me let me get Obama when the world needs a rescue
mission. That's the story followed by LG y. And some job
hunting karma for the coming months please.
Boy, we're a bunch of guys here. I'm hoarse you're
ingested. Lamb lamb.
A this is this is a very nice way to show your support for the
show. Matthew, really appreciate it. Thank you. And I think he
celebrates his birthday on the same day that we have our
anniversary but he wants to call out for today. Right?
It doesn't say specifically but we can call him up for today.
We'll do it for sure.
There isn't a need for rescue mission. When the world is
threatened. The world needs help calls on
and that's the store
jobs. Jobs. Jobs and jobs. Let's vote for jobs.
day Hello, LG why you didn't leave? You did
not use you're not here go Yay. Oh, no, I didn't. Oh my well,
because it's kind of baked into the same one. Okay, well, hold
on.
Sorry. Anonymous from Alpharetta, Georgia 666 dot 00
Which is nice. I don't have anything prophetic to say at
this time. Well, I do but it would be too long to read. How
about some good karma just like Satya Nadella says we should all
have
the Microsoft seat
next you women

it's gonna pay is the guy that paid doesn't pay the bills but
it makes you feel good How come
no one says that we should boycott windows.
Guys, but I've always said that. It's been his comments have been
a result of his religious beliefs. Isn't religion a
protected class in the US see if I don't cut it off. I could
ramble on forever. PS the no agenda book club link doesn't
work on your donation confirmation page.

It's a nice penmanship, but it's kind of a funky style. I've been
thinking about how I can make a special donation in honor of
seven years of the best podcast in the universe. A great show to
listen to while driving my commute perfect. And, and some
six Craig's of cable don't know what that means. Who, who
brought us in the month whose birthday is November 9. Sook is
maybe sue me. Look at this.

gonna give it to him anyway. Oh, man. I'm gonna take it. You've

And you're like it Mysterion entertainment 200 bucks from Los
Angeles, California. On show 659 Adam read my note on a server
with a surfer voice oddly before my donation was a donation from
Murfreesboro, Tennessee in 1998 at once purchased oddly vintage
and still shrink wrap Star Trek trading cards. Okay, from the
Davis market. There's where there's purportedly the center
of the universe, the Davis market link about the market the
end of the note the lesson is if you buy something there you end
up dying and Murphy's.
Bonus day.
On the same trip I went to a new age bookstore that was selling a
children's book about dealing with UFO presents. I regret that
I never bought it as the illustrations were incredibly
were incredible. With pictures of children playing on a
playground and often or an alien greys observing in the
background. The store was run by which I think is true in
Murfreesboro. Yeah, the store was run by Mark Davenport and he
wrote a book about UFOs he goes on anyway I thought it was
symbolic occurrence and show 659 and felt that I had to become a
producer So Adam becomes aware of the Mark Davis market I'm not
gonna purchase anything that hey this market I think he to go
purchase something now.
He would like karma first board games zone Plex. Kickstart in
his final week read about Davis market here and he's got some
links and he's happy now is 1/3 of the way to knighthood. will
obey you will obey you will obey.
You've got karma. Little extra obey karma.
All right, now I have another handwritten note.
No, all right, everybody. Everybody's looking forward to
brew some coffee.
Danielle? It looks like Gary's GRI II.
I don't know I can't read over your shoulder today, John.
No, it's right there on the on the number nine line. And she's
in weed and with her husband. And I think she actually sent in
two checks. That seemed to I think supposed to add up to 200
bucks, but it actually added up to 199 something or something
like that.
All right, got a penny. No problem. I'll throw that in.
Whatever it is. Now you need your pen out again. Because
there's another birthday going on here. I am proud to make my
first donation to the best podcast in the universe. This is
written in kind of a hybrid so I can read it easier. I guess you
could say my fiance hit himself in the mouth from listening to
John's DH unplugged. He found his way to no agenda. He
promptly hit me in the mouth and we thoroughly enjoy our weeklies
twice weekly. By the way, no agenda hold time. Keep it up. So

How could it be worth it? This was baffles me. Well,
if I had gotten my flu shot, I wouldn't be well, you don't
know that. There's only 75% effective a if you need who
knows if it was the flu B. And if you got the flu shot, why
would you walk away from a shot saying it was worth it? You
didn't dodge a bullet. It was like you bought some protective
armor and somebody shot at you and you said Why spend 1000s of
dollars for this Kevlar vest and it was worth it. Because then it
would have been worth it. So I don't
listen. Listen now. I got while you're talking about speech. I
should have busted you on saying that you're eating a crazy one.
The more I think about it, that is so uncool. Did you even stop
yourself and think oh my god, did I just say I'm eating a
crazy one. There's no such thing as a crazy one. It's a raisin
but because it's a cranberry. It's it's a crazy one and you
actually call it a crazy one.
Did it take you that long is that was that in your craw?
It's stuck with me. Yes. Apparently because I thought
your direct would have jumped on my throat if I'd said I was
Eating crazy and you're going
to go crazy. It's not a reason it's a crazy.
I can't even do it. I wish you could do it about yourself be
funny. No, I would like to sorry. I said it. Do you have
the harmonica?
I have a harmonica. Something said I'd like to.
I'd like to do a reading. I'd like to do a reading. Okay,
well, Hunter S Thompson. And I'd like a little accompaniment if
possible. Yeah, give a little bit. Okay. You hit it. This is
from September 12 2001. Hunter S, Thompson wrote, The towers
are now gone, reduced to bloody Rubble, along with all hopes for
peace in our time in the US or any other country. Make no
mistake about it. We are at war now with somebody, and we will
stay at war with that strange and mysterious enemy. For the
rest of our lives. It will be a religious war, a sort of
Christian Jihad fueled by religious hatred, and led by
merciless fanatics on both sides. It will be guerrilla
warfare on a global scale with no front lines, and no
identifiable enemy. This is going to be an expensive war.
And victory is not guaranteed for anyone. And certainly not
for a baffled little creep like George W. Bush. All he knows is
that his father started a war a long time ago, and that he the
goofy child president has been chosen by fate and the global
oil industry to finish it off. Beautiful.
And there you have it.
And he was so right. And I'd like to welcome Kenda Navia once
again to the party, welcome people. And it's interestingly,
I know very little about Canada, I It's, I think I'm just not
qualified at all to say much about it. But we have, of
course, a global intelligence network, so many fan really
fantastic notes that came in MJ wall. I really wanted to read
his note that he's Canada Navy. And of course, he says, you
know, there's so many, actually now that it's actually quite a
long note, but there's so many coincidences, so many things
that make so much sense for this to be happening right now.
Mainly, the resistance that Harper has been facing in the
House of Commons over a Canada Canada's military involvement in
the coalition. You know, they really needed this to kickstart
everything and you know, to have this, this guy now, you know, be
linked to ISIL recently converted. And the whole thing
is just, I gotta
have a couple of intro clips. Okay, good. That's a good idea.
Your little thing? Yeah. And let's, there's two of them
actually have the PBS NewsHour attack on Canada WTF clip and
then I have the sort of short part two of that then I have the
I think the better clip is CBS. The official MT one I think
which is more official mouthpiece than ABC, because I
think they try harder.
Well, which one do you want me to play?
Well, if we want to start PBS attacking Canada, and then you
play the second part, but you can shorten that if you want to.
Here's
came to the heart of Canada's capital city today, a rare mass
shooting left one soldier and a gunman dead and two people
wounded national shooting day of high drama that included
unconfirmed reports of multiple attackers and speculation about
whether a terror group was involved.
Just shooting
just just for a frame of reference, Brian, the gate
Crusader who lives in Chicago, he says I just want you to know
that there were more people shot and killed in Chicago the same
night are shot and killed in Ottawa.
Yeah, in the mass shooting.
The the mass shooting was in Chicago 00 coverage.
Now here they go on and on about this thing. Here's part two of
that clip
at the 9:52am this morning. The Armed Police Service received
multiple 911 calls regarding a shooting at the National War
Memorial.
Witnesses to that initial incident at the memorial site
say a man dressed all in black with a rifle gun down one of the
honor guard. From there they say he ran toward the main
parliament building a short distance away in central Ottawa.
Within moments more shooting erupted. police and soldiers
quickly descended on the building with weapons drawn.
video taken by a Globe and Mail newspaper reporter captured the
sound of gunfire echoing down the halls.
I hear this pop pop pop. Possibly 10 shots don't really
know I thought it was dynamite rather than working struction
rather than anything else, suddenly the security guards
down the hallways, posture is all through the
back of the parliament buildings.
A cabinet minister said the shooter ran right past a room
where Prime Minister Stephen Harper was addressing lawmakers.
Harper was hustled away and the building was locked down. Ottawa
police confirmed later the gunman was shot and killed, but
a search of the area continued through the afternoon.
So they take it to an extreme here with the CBS with it. And
this is, by the way short, that they went on and on with this
with this clip, and I actually just started kind of in the
middle when they bring on Peter Mansbridge, who is a guy that is
beyond me why they haven't brought this he's the main
Anchorman for CBC News. And it's always baffled me because Peter
Jennings used to be a Canadian, why they haven't brought this up
until he's
dead then he was no longer a Canadian. Well, that
was the end of dead Canadian but they brought this Peter
Mansfield should be one of the anchors on the big three
networks and they don't know why they won't pay him enough money
or, or he just hates the United States. I don't know what it is,
but he has the absolute he's a Walter Cronkite level of
authority is great. And here's the the Scott Pelley talking to
him and then discussing some of the crap about this bowls,
bullcrap story
into the parliament buildings and then heading up over some
time before they stopped him. This is a new kind of event for
Canada. And I wonder if you could give us a sense in the
new kind of event.
What's one guy got shot? What's the new kind of event? She's
early hours of?
Canada? I hope you see what's happening. It's about time you
got some of this medicine by the way. We have to deal with it all
the time down here. This is it is so so obvious that this is a
media hype of the situation. Yeah, of course. It's sucks.
This is no big no, no, no one wants to get shot way standing
guard at the Tomb of the Unknown soldiers. You know, it's pretty
symbolic, don't you think? But there's no I didn't hear any
jihad. No letters. No, nothing left around. Bing, bing. Well,
CBS changes that narrow thing,
national mood. A lot of people coast to coast to coast are
obviously in shock because of this. People crying in the
streets on the West Coast, St. Vancouver Island have this news
because it strikes so close to home in the sense of two major
national symbols where something like this has occurred. And
people just said, you know, this is Canada. This doesn't happen
in Canada. Well, today it happened in Canada. And the
consequences going forward now are still to be determined.
Peter Mansbridge chief correspondent and anchor of the
CBC, thank you so much.
Hey, man up Canada.
By the way that really I've never seen Peter Mansbridge used
as a correspondent in any US show. I mean, maybe I just
missed it. But it seems to me that this was his audition.
Yeah. Oh, they were crying in Vancouver. What
didn't have a lower third crying in Vancouver. That's a good
that's a good report name yes, dossier crying in Vancouver. The
Cougar from Vancouver is crying in Vancouver.
After the attack today NORAD, the North American Aerospace
Defense Command went on a heightened state of alert
because it went on high alert.
Yes, we could have Jihad ease flying Jihad ease. Does the same
guys have trek Santa's
wasting the taxpayers money on this bullcrap. And
we're on high alert in America. I'm reading right now Peter King
is on CNN, FBI field offices on alerts were on jihadi alert.
This is perfect. We use a bola backburner we back Bernie bola
Thank you candidate for letting us also make use of this because
you know you're you're still in North America. So if we've got a
crazy as long as bearded F's shooting up the you know, guards
of the and national symbol, we must be afraid people you know,
it would be so easy we could change all of our lives. It'd be
so easy. Here's what you do. Do you think every household has a
hammer? Every house has got a hammer right? Just a hammer. I
would hope just take the hammer who says national hammer day and
just go smash your television into bits can be fun. Have the
have the kids play a large Yeah, smash, smash, smash, smash smash
man. You still have the stuff infiltrating through BuzzFeed
and you know, whatever else is out there, but you just had to
turn it off and I have a jingle for that somewhere. Don't forget
where that is we don't play it enough.
Well fail. All right, play the rest of this clip and you'll
hear some more.
Bullcrap Hanson's Canada's National War Memorial was a
target security was beefed up at Arlington National Cemetery,
the cemetery, protect the dead DC,
Arlington because of this thing in Canada,
those jihadists are now attacking our dead people.
They're killing dead people. Wow, this is a good clip, John,
I like it.
Here's what President Obama had to say today.
Now, you know, when the President comes out and says,
you know, it's part of the messaging.
Obviously, we're all shaken by it.
We're gonna do everything we can to make sure that we're standing
by the murders in Chicago that take place all constantly where
he
just was. He was just there in Chicago on a little fundraiser.
Also in Washington, our HOMELAND SECURITY CORRESPONDENT Bob
Walker has followed me in
what is a difficult time.
It's a very difficult time right now, John, because we're all
shaken by the script that is unfolding the narrative, the
visuals, the fear, the pornographic fear that is being
shoved down our throats and be afraid. cower in the corner,
shelter in place, be vigilant. You're being played people are
being played
vestigation. Bob, what do you know?
It's got law enforcement sources tell us there is no intelligence
at this point, suggesting the shootings today in Ottawa are
connected in any way to a broader plot, or to any threat
against the US homeland
and the story.
No, that's no good. That's just that's just to make them so
they're not culpable. Hey, we said we said there was no
connection. Now. Let's go back to the fear.
The FBI and intelligence agencies, of course, are in
touch with their Canadian counterparts. And they're all
still working to pin down a motive for the shootings. Now,
we're told that some of the evidence suggests the attempt
to hate our freedom. I don't need a motive. I can tell you
right now that hate our freedom back
may have some kind of domestic link. But investigators have not
ruled out at the same time the possibility, the real
possibility that the gunman may have been inspired by terrorist
terror groups have called on sympathizers to attack soldiers,
police and other Western targets, essentially wherever
and whenever possible. And in fact, it's already happened.
That deliberate hitting run that killed the Canadian soldier near
Montreal earlier in the week was clearly a terrorist act carried
out by one radicalized man who struck out on behalf of ISIS.
With us airstrikes continuing now against Islamic State
targets in Iraq and Syria. The FBI and the Department of
Homeland Security are out warning a local police to be on
guard potentially for more retaliatory attacks by lone
wolves attacks got to look very much like what we've already
seen in Canada Bob or in our Washington newsroom
excellent report guys excellent good work excellent not found
that in any kind of reality or truth except for the one line
that you had to put in there so that we couldn't take your your
journalist license away. Oh, boy, MSNBC was live on the air
when this happened. They of course brought in their top team
as usual to report men top men to report live on what was going
on in Canada and Canada. Let me go to you first. What's the
latest tonight in Iowa? Well in Ottawa what this guy said Iowa
he said Iowa
no listen to it again. And I is so stupid. Can you play that
again? It's a beauty.
Let me go to you first. What's the latest tonight in Iowa? For
the day
I think I need to play it one more time before I can. I can
award anything how beautiful is that? Oh, I mean this this guy
is he he's just he's made he's made to well he's he's made to
give me Clip of the Day time and time again there's no thing
there's no one to
let me go to you first. What's the latest tonight in Iowa? Line
Ottawa global Yeah, how does that happen?
Do you think the someone talked to Chloe talked to Chloe? about
what's going on in Ottawa, Iowa Okay. Ottawa it's like the like
the commercial Do you have fraud protection fraud protection that
guy great.
It's unbelievable. And this is what this is one of their stars
at MSNBC challenge top we make a million dollars plus, we make it
a million dollars plus and he is he's got one of the highest
rated shows because they love him. I mean, they obviously the
audience at MSNBC are extremely stupid. But that's the same way
with the other networks to so I don't know can't be any much
smarter anyplace else but they don't have a gaff Meister like
this guy.
Hey the so Harper is in Parliament right now and he's
like whoa run scared we're not gonna let this guy bring us down
guys dead by the way they shot him and they want to know what
the motive was once you capture him alive maybe that would help
Oh thing is so obvious this bull crap people bull crap. Boom we
see another email here. Remember, had a lock down? It
was pretty much the same. It was good. I mean, what's not good as
it's so easy to dupe Canada? I'm surprised
why they were there. They're virgins.
Prediction diverge, jihadi virgins, Virgin sprang and
Vancouver virgins to the terrorists game. Oh man, Justin
Bieber should come out and make a statement. Bieber says we
won't back down. It won't be great. It can be done with that.
I think that I think it'd be appropriate at this point to
have have the Biebs come out and say something it Biebs if you
noticed, there's a war on Twitter. I've been seeing a
number of things kind of I think it's actually started with Leo.
And I why you weren't on the show. And it was very hard to
watch, of course. Because you weren't on the show. And I
didn't watch that. Listen, because because I had Ebola. I
knew that if I watched you have explosive diarrhea. And this
whole hate of Twitter, which I find very strange because it's
not like Facebook with Facebook kicks you off and Facebook
police's everything and Facebook is makes it a safe environment.
And this is also being propagated now by the the
GamerGate discussions. It's all Twitter. Twitter is no good and
and misogynist, have free rein on Twitter. And I'm thinking
this is a setup against Twitter. And let's face it, it won't take
much at being a public company for them to run into some real
hardship. And I think if I were running the strategy and I
wanted to kill Twitter, I would want to acquire it. Of course, I
want to take it over for pennies on the dollar. But first we have
to bring it all the way down. I'm just seeing consistently
this you'll you'll look out for it. Now you'll see that this is
happening in the most recent thing you want
me to put this in the book, you say yeah, I
think you should put in the book, The War on Twitter, or on
Twitter and the most recent example of this and I think I
know I think I can start to put together a case to say that
there is a structural war on Twitter, which plays into the
misogynistic, you know, women. And by the way, if you're being
threatened on Twitter, boohoo get off Twitter. You know, it's
it's just not like people are you know, you don't have to go
to Twitter, you have to go to school. And if someone's at
school, bullying you at school, that's different. If someone's
bullying you at work, that's different. But you know, it's
not like you have to be bullied on any computer, just remove
yourself from that service.
And get off Facebook to Yeah, so it or unfriend people. I don't
know, like some kind of right that you have a right to safety
there. But the most recent one was a very funny speech funny
from the perspective of me, by Monica Lewinsky. And Monica
Lewinsky, I don't have to explain who she is. She was
speaking at the Forbes Under 30 conference. And at this
conference, she launched her anti bullying campaign,
which everybody's trying to get into the act
for which I cannot find a name for the campaign. There was not
even a mention about it on the Forbes so I guess you just anti
bullying and that's her platform or whatever, heard that campaign
sucks. Gotcha. Right on the money. I am so sorry. I like it.
And we go in.
And I clip I have a two minute clip of of this. And it's very
sad, first of all, because you cannot read very poor. She has
no timing. She says some interesting things and then I'll
tell you why I believe that this training is needed. Yeah. I'll
tell you why. I believe this is a set up to bring down Twitter
or at least a part of it. Thanks to the internet
and it website that at the time was scarcely known outside of
Washington, DC. But a website most of us know today called the
Drudge Report. within 24 hours, I became a public figure, not
just in the United States, but around the entire globe. As far
as major news stories were concerned, this was the very
first time that the traditional media was usurped by the
internet.
I don't think that's true. What happened is this the STARR
report came out. And people were reading about it online. But
really, you serped? I don't know about that. It was well,
she does. She's got she's well, early in the timeline, because
it we started 93 is when the internet actually had impacted
so far as this sort of thing is concerned, because that's when
the web began to grow. And this, what did the 9896 Yeah, I think
it was like 98. So it was five years and it just before the.com
collapse. But so so but she's really saying the I know what
you're saying I
it's sketchy sketchy at best. All right, in 1998,
as you can imagine, there was a media frenzy, even though it was
pre Google. That's right. Pre Google, oh, Brig. The World Wide
Web, as we called it back then, was already a big part of life.
Overnight, I went from being a completely private figure, to a
publicly humiliated one. Stay with it. I was patient 00. My
God.
Now, you want to hear more of this.
So Google was founded in September 4 1998. That same
year,
just play a little bit more, you're
the first person to have their reputation completely destroyed
worldwide via the internet.
That's not true. She was in the newspapers, but okay, there's a
reason for this. I think
there was no Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram back then. But
there were gossip, news and entertainment website, with
dvorak.org pleat with comments. And emails could be forwarded.
We could forward emails back then John Roman days.
Of course, it was all done on the excruciatingly slow dial up.
Tears yet around the world, this story went viral phenomenon,
that you could argue with the first moment of truly social
media. If only I could collect some royalties.
Now the reason why this is a war against Twitter is to kick off
her anti bullying campaign, which has no name or website as
far as I can tell. She joined Twitter.
And yes, I realized that right
and the news stories are how the misogynist have come out to call
her slot and all these things on Twitter. And for Monica Lewinsky
may
be spared Twitter's you can block people of true.
And for Monica Lewinsky to be speaking at the Forbes Under 30
conference, it touched my brain a little bit. She's 38 So why is
she speaking in the under 30 conference?
I have no idea and I should not as you mentioned that simple
fact.
So I'm thinking and and we have it in the book. There is a war
on Twitter. The war is Twitter is a vehicle a free rein for
misogynist to hate on women and near the mind that you can just
not be on Twitter or get off Twitter or block people. There's
many ways not to be bullied. There's something afoot with
this.
I think you might be onto something. And that's all I have
for right
now. I just want her you to know that she is patient zero.
Patient Zero. What it what an area thing to say. Yeah.
Patient in Britain by the way. People found guilty of internet
trolling, which is such a loaded term by it so it doesn't mean
anything up could be jailed for up to two years under government
proposals outlined on Sunday.
The old jail
following a number of high profile cases of abusive and
threatening behavior on Twitter. Justice Secretary Chris grayling
told The Mail on Sunday newspaper. This laws to combat
cruelty and marks are determination to take a stand
against being a baying cyber mob. There has been increasing
concerns and sanity, there has been increasing concern in
Britain about the growing scourge of internet trolls, who
post hate filled messages on social media often threatening
their targets. And then of course, we pull out the parents
of missing girl Madeleine McCann. Last month a man was
jailed for 18 weeks for what prosecutors described as a
campaign of hatred against a female lawmaker quote these
internet trolls are cowards who are poisoning our national life.
So when you call someone a troll, certainly in the UK, you
are now as of today calling some criminal criminal
and by the way, in most countries Canada is a good
example of this or in the UK I'm sure is the same thing. This an
opportunity
Oh, and this business opportunity
money making opportunity Oh, let me write accused of a crime
joining my panel you have not been convicted, sentenced or
even anything you haven't even been accused by the government.
Somebody calls you a troll then you can sue them for slander,
slander. If you're not a troll,
yeah, if you're not because now they've defined troll in a legal
sense. And so now someone calls you a troll in England. And I
believe you know, my England's the only place to get this law
so it has to be England and they got very liberal laws about
people suing for slander. I mean they really always take the side
of the person slandered. I think you can make some serious cash
what what dictionary we should look at to look up a good
definition of troll
I think the urban
probably be you know I need to I need an official one sexual ones
in there and I need official dictionary
hangs from Rosa from one foot.
Interesting well, then I'd like to see the word troll is just
not a good word to use anymore. It's like glitch. You can't use
that anymore.
You use it all the time. You say you can't use it, but it's very
common.
No, I of course I am the word police. CHARGE OF ALL THINGS
words. Well, it's annoying. Troll.
Well, since we're on this topic, and it does involve Twitter, we
have a new there's a government agency mentioned in here that I
just I only heard when I was getting this clip and I'm gonna
have to look it up where the clip plays. But the State
Department is playing a big role in the anti ISIS thing because
apparently, and I don't can't find any real information about
these two girls in Denver. Oh, yes. Yeah, this is good. Or
three girls, three girls and teenagers, teenage teenage girls
in Denver, teenage trolls. I tell you they got on a plane and
they're headed to go fight with ISIL and I don't know about you
but generally speaking these these very strict and rigid
Muslims don't have women fighters working with
I thought they were gonna go there to to support them to
pleasure them as rewards for the fighters,
well, then they'd be whores and they'd be stoned. If they're if
they're if everyone says what they say which of these guys are
fundamentalists. So that's not gonna work. No matter how you
deconstruct this story, none of it works. And that's all bull
crap. I believe that would be so let's play. Here's a little
State Department stuff. This is State Department ISIL attacks
tit for
tat Facebook and Twitter post against is supporters. And a
project dubbed think again turn away into dissuading potential
is recruits here at the State Department. The 50 person
project is run out of the Center for Strategic Counterterrorism
Communications. It's been working in the anti Shi hottie
social media space in four foreign languages since 2010.
This year it added English
Okay, Center for Strategic Counterterrorism Communications,
which is obviously something that was set up by Hillary and
they she makes a big point of this very long piece but there
was a large package and so far as TV is concerned, this is a
discussing this operation and this got 50 People that are
online apparently they wouldn't show the what's going on there
because I guess I'm just sitting there looking at porn, and I
didn't want to catch him. So they didn't get to get camera
into this thing but it's 50 people and they're part of the
Center for Strategic Counterterrorism communication
and they're on Twitter making, setting up accounts and telling
the ISIL ISIS guys that they're bad people. And so what's
interesting to me is is cased within State Department clip to
where we weren't permitted to film its operation senator, but
we were able to catch up with a man spearheading its latest
efforts. Former Time magazine editor Richard Stengel, the
Undersecretary of State for Public Diplomacy,
what ISIL is doing is it's using social media and other platforms
to try to get mindshare of people who would be sympathetic
to their goals, young men that they're trying to recruit. So
when the President talks about contesting the space, he means,
get in there intercede between ISIL and those young men,
the State Department has worked to persuade Islamic governments
and religious leaders overseas to join the messaging campaign.
We're not always the best messenger for our message. That
doesn't mean we shouldn't do it. But part and parcel of what
we're trying to do is to enable and empower those better
messengers than we are those those people who can say that
this is illegitimate Islam
Hello, but some of the State Department efforts have proven
controversial especially this video entitled Welcome to
Islamic State land a collection of I SS own gruesome videos.
So this welcome to Islamic state lab
and seeing this way, if I see this, various,
they got they got some of the worst videos that the ISIS guys
did. And my favorite one is some guy that apparently throw off a
cliff or something like a Hollywood thing, this guy, the
second Simpsons episode, this guy's bouncing down the hill.
And this whole thing reeks of fabrications every which way
from the original ISIL ISIS videos and the mockery of the
ISIS videos and the Center for Strategic Counterterrorism
Communications which got to be just a bonanza. And the fact
that the ex editor in chief of New Zealand is running this wood
and if you remember Jay Carney came from time
why don't we do that? No, he didn't come from Newsweek no
time.
I think you're right time. Yeah. But you can look it up. Yeah.
But he it just reeks of this, of this, as some pundits would say
a government media complex, the media and do we have enough
trouble with people coming in from aerospace and then becoming
a lobbyist and then coming into the government and going back to
Boeing and now we have these media guys coming from Time
magazine and come and then going back and this is terrible. This
is the reason that no agenda show should be listened to
because we the rest of this is all just a meme. Just a
festering corrupt pimple
that's that's a show title for some other podcasts but a
festering corrupt pimple Yeah, I'm just gonna write it down
anyway
it's terrible. That's very upset by this I had no idea that and
it gets worse steagle was the
you know, the I think another fast one was tried to be pulled
on us with this this Beagle parachute drop.
Now the parachute drops story is that thing reeks and meanwhile
of course after the parachute the goodies in the parachute do
get a nice nice video coverage of the whole thing which our
head MoPhO in charge, sir had mofo in charge Black Knight of
the US Army was so kind to analyze for us. Ah, would you
like to hear his analysis?
Yes, we would love to hear his analysis. That's one of the
reasons that people listen to the show.
In the morning I was watching NBC News. As I was over at
family member's house for dinner and saw the report about the US
air dropped that was apparently mistakenly dropped in the air
and recovered by ISIS fighters, where they claimed ISIS fighters
are now in possession of a large quantity of us hand grenades.
One problem. The hand grenades shown in the crate in the video
are so horribly fake, I started laughing out loud, earning these
strange looks from my aunt and uncle who are all in on the ISIS
fear boo cocky. In the army, one of my additional skills is an
explosive ordnance clearance agent so I am somewhat of an
expert on US and foreign ordinance. However, this fakery
is so bad even a cherry as private fresh from basic
training could point it out. At around 50 seconds into the
video. You see him open a crate containing suppose at hand
grenades thrown in there are that are just loose. A few
problems. Live grenades would never ever be transported loose
in a crate like that. All grenades come from the factory
in case and foam packed in cylindrical tubes. They are not
unpacked from that until ready to be used to the bottom of the
grenade body has a hole in it because it's hollow. If you see
that these things are hollow When the kid is picking it up,
there are no fuses installed on the neck, no fuse, no spoon, no
pain at cetera. The grenade bodies have been spray painted a
different shade of green. With those grenades our training
versions of the MK two pineapple grenade, which was completely
phased out of service by 1970 are not even used for training
anymore. Training grenade bodies are stored in crates like the
one that video and they're stored loosely. Looks like
someone grabbed the grenade training kit from an old supply
room. And then he goes on to explain how they work and see
what else did he say I hadn't. I would also like to point out
some issues with the parachute is not your standard circular
AirDrop chute. It is a steerable chute much like the parafoil
design used by skydivers and special operation forces for
precision flight path touchdown, it is controlled by GPS to
deliver the payload to the intended Drop Location. Perhaps
the GPS malfunctioned and caused the drop to steer into ISIS held
territory. Sincerely yours sir hmm fic Blacknight at the US
Army well there you go. And when you look at this video you can
see the grenades are indeed hollow.
Well, I'm asking you now why didn't somebody in the
mainstream media that kept showing this clip say something
about this? There's they have all these experts?
Yeah, oh, I can't answer Oh, we
got our one guy mails us the obvious facts because it's, it
is apparent when you see the things are fake. Yeah. And the
pineapple grenade, the whole thing is just the end. I think
the funniest part of that note, of course, is that he is
laughing while everybody else is biting their nails. Right?
Fearful that they're going to be killed any minute by one of
these, these phony operators.
Isn't a grand?
It's just too too funny. How can we keep doing this show?
Well, if they just keep it up, keep the bull crap.
Bull crap just never stops.
And I keep reading notes about how Lebanon is now being pulled
into the war with Islamic State. You've seen this pop up from
time.
Notice this. There's ancillary information, got the
Associated Press, Lebanon pulled into war with Islamic State
group with all eyes, that says with all lies and the Islamic
State group's onslaught into Iraq and Syria, a less
conspicuous but potentially just as explosive front line with the
extremists is emerging in Lebanon, where Lebanese soldiers
and Shiite Hezbollah guerrillas are increasingly pulled into
deadly fighting with the Sunni militias. I'd say that's another
check mark on the west Clark seven.
So I came back to see him a few weeks later. And by that time we
were bombing in Afghanistan. I said, Are we still going to war
with Iraq? And he said, Oh, it's worse than that. He said, He
reached over on his desk. He picked up a piece of paper. He
said, I just he said I just got this down from upstairs means
Secretary Defense Office today. And he said this a memo that
describes how we're going to take out seven countries in five
years, starting with Iraq and then Syria, Lebanon, Libya,
Somalia, Sudan and finishing off Iran. There you go.
And then just briefly, I wanted to say, everyone is immediately
saying, Oh, the CEO of total oil to to the head, you know, they
killed him. It makes no sense. Yeah,
well, before you go, now, I do have two more ISIS clips.
I'm sorry. I didn't I Yes.
This is the kind of a nother report. It was and it has this
guy. This NCCT guy got the who's the new head of national
carrier. Awesome. Awesome. Yeah. Awesome. Yeah. Play ISIS online
first and then play the Wilson clip. Okay.
late yesterday word came that three teenage girls from the
Denver area were detained over the weekend in Germany. Did I
play the wrong one?
No, that's the right one. I believe I just didn't have it
named right. I would have had it played earlier because this is
the background to the den. The girls from Denver, okay.
by American authorities, their disappearance raise fears they
were on their way to Syria to join the Islamic State group.
That's because the militants have been there it is again,
Islamic State group. This is new. That's new. Yeah. The
calling Islamic State group was just just noticing
10s have been luring recruits from around the world with a
sophisticated web based media operation. US government is now
targeting chief foreign affairs correspondent Margaret Warner
has a story and a warning. It contains some graphic images.
Good.
The Islamic State group sweeping land grabs across Syria and Iraq
this year had been matched by an online onslaught as well.
Sophisticated they got a sophisticated outfit man that's
because involves computers
and here's guy Olson making As little commentary, Sal
disseminates timely, and high quality media content on
multiple platforms including hire them
to run Yahoo then there will be perfect
ISIL disseminates timely, and high quality media content on
multiple platforms, including on social media, all designed to
secure widespread fouling for the group
a sense last month, President Obama urged his fellow leaders
at the United Nations to join the fight against the Islamic
State in the realm of ideas.
That means contesting the space that terrorists occupy including
the internet and social media.
This is just so much bull crap. It's ridiculous.
Ya know, what's ridiculous is that we're not in on the money
making banana.
Oh, my God, can you imagine?
Yeah, but it also, you know, when you work for the
government, and you have to create reports,
and yeah, that's got to do a lot of Yeah, T TPS reports or
whatever. Yeah. And
then you have to take you know, guys out to lunch and bribe and
put a hooker on and to make sure the contract stays valid. Right?
These are over.
Yeah. Too much blackmail is it?
Those days are just over for me. It's just like, come on.
Meanwhile, I don't get the point of this story. But I think it
was to slip in some information that's old that they didn't
catch the first time around. And this is the fence jumper clip.
Yeah, that was interesting. That popped. I think something else
about that.
There's breaking news tonight and with details on this story.
We'll go to Deke Brennan.
A man has just jumped the fence at the North Lawn of the White
House. Chief White House correspondent Major Garrett is
in DC. Major what happened?
Good evening, Dick to US Secret Service confirms that a man
jumped the fence and onto the North grounds of the White House
about 7:30pm Eastern Time prompting Asia
so i i have this on the big HD screen. So evening, Dick. So I'm
watching I gotta write up, you know, I had his face. He's
reading this is all prompter. He's not actually saying
anything good. I can see his eyeballs moving in very subtle.
He's good. But he's not great. Major major is all scripted. And
this whole thing is like very scripted. It sounds like a lousy
children's play from high school the way they're doing going back
and forth. But anyway, just so you should know.
Oh, yeah, that sounds like it. Thank you very much, Dick. Now
over to you dick. I like how you pronounced the dick the
fence and onto the North grounds of the White House about 7:30pm
Eastern time tonight, prompting a White House locked down.
Secret Service agents and guard dogs descended on the suspect
and subdued him without incident. The suspect attempted
to kick the attack dogs in this process but to no avail. The
Secret Service has recently added new fences and posted
additional agents outside of the North ground to the White House
in hopes of deterring fence jumpers. Hey,
how that new low fence work. That really that really is
fantastic. That fan base of attack
I think I think they've introduced a new meme I just
thought of is heard this again. These bastards. Kick dogs.
Yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Who are police officers? That's a
felony to kick your dog that's a family dog
kicker
hampers the use of attack dogs. In this particular case, Dick
differs dramatically from the tactics the Secret Service used
during the September 19 incident at the White House, in which
Army veteran Omar Gonzalez climbed that same fence and
spread into the doors of the Executive Mansion. It made a
deep inside the White House complex before being tackled
near the greenroom. Gonzales resisted arrest and faces
numerous federal charges related to that fence jumping crime. He
was recently declared not mentally competent to face
trial. A trial date for Gonzales has not been said
fascinating report.
Yeah. I found that to be interesting in in regards to you
know,
I think there's I think there's this whole thing was a hoax.
Yeah. You know, it's like, hey,
we can do it. We
can sue guy in charge and we show Yeah, he does a better job.
Okay, we're done. Well, there
was also a secret service scandal that broke
right when they brought this back to the fore this would have
never been mentioned if it wasn't for this event. And this
again, is to demean the old the woman that was running the place
you have the clip because I have the clip. I don't have the clip.
I had the clip, but I don't but essentially, I have the clip
suit. Oh, okay. Well
play the clip or would you just like to say essentially and
explain that essentially
I meant it
to Secret Service agents were investigating threatening
comments on Facebook about the president. This guy is from
Who is this guy? He's
He's like that. He's the older correspondent for the local
Nashville station. Little Sally sounds like like he's talking
through a voice processor that can misconfigured it's a very
interesting way of speaking
to remote service agents. We're investigating three
think what's the meaning and I'm sure it's probably some horrible
stroke that he had that we're making fun of which is not going
to be funny in the
comments on Facebook about the president, and the initial man
who posted them had refused to let the agents into his house.
He shut the door in our face, and we're on the corner. And
we're not sure if he possibly had the gun in his hand.
In a litter first sits by Nashville's top cop to Secret
Service headquarters, Chief Steve Anderson wrote the
resident refused to come outside and shouted back show me your
warrant. So one of the agents didn't ask the police sergeant
to wave a piece of paper in an apparent effort to dupe the
resident into thinking they indeed had a warrant a
nice work Secret Service guys. So let me get this straight. So
this guy had posted something on Facebook, which they can just
read on this in this Newspace literally, so that we knew what
the guy said, but it was taken as a threat. And then the Secret
Service Oh, this guy's threatened we're gonna go pick
them up and the guy who says Yeah, show me your warrant.
This isn't the same scandal I'm thinking of. Oh, well, I
like this one.
The other scandal was a neighborhood dispute. Oh, I
don't know about that. Yeah, look of neighborhood dispute
secret certain I wish I had the clip are you looking at this is
a different clip was apparently some agents went rogue and came
off the White House duty. They were on the White House duty.
And there's one of their buddies in Maryland or one of these.
They're nearby states had some beef with a guy in his backyard
or something and they thought he'd bring in some muscle.
And he called his buddies from the Secret Service.
Yeah, they came into detail.
Well that's what you do. I mean, come on. If you live in Jersey,
I got my boys I call my boys from the from the department.
Come on down and help me out because I'm what we do in
Jersey. Jersey. Don't you and we stick to Gracie the
news is crazy.
We stick together as in Joisey. Oh, man. Yeah. But but to what
do you got to listen to this the because this is what I like is
the Nashville chief of police. He said screw this I'm gonna go
complain. I'm going to the feds say you know this is not okay.
What you guys are doing. You can't fake having a warrant.
This is this is a constitutional issue.
What he talks about is abuse of power by the Secret Service, not
just in Washington. But here in Nashville. Congressman
Jim Cooper is one of the members of the committee who just got
the Chiefs letter detailing the January 2013. Incident.
So you can't steamroll a citizen of this country because we all
have rights. And we should know how to exercise those rights.
Good point
because most citizens be like, okay. Oh, yeah. Okay. What do
you want me to do? Yeah, it's
like Boston. Remember the Boston Marathon? The Boston Marathon
bombing? And then they took over a whole town and started going
in and out of houses.
I'm coming in your house, just to make sure he's not here. Oh,
yeah. It's crazy.
The incident occurred here in this East Nashville
neighborhood. But the chief says when officers arrived, they
quickly discovered that secret service agents had no legal
basis to enter the man's house, and the man who had a legal
permit to carry a gun had not actually threatened anyone with
it. That's when officers decided to pull out since then Director
Julia Pearson had promised to clean up the Secret Service the
chief sent her a complaint about the incident, but Anderson said
she did not acknowledge my letter. Assistant Director at
Smith did call but his tone at best was condescending and
dismissive. The chief added I realized that I was being told
in a polite manner to mind my own affairs. Oh, that's when
Anderson demanded a meeting with bosses inside the secret
services Nashville office. He recalled asking do you think it
is appropriate to wave a piece of paper in the air and tell him
you have a warrant when you do not have a warrant? And sir I
don't know I'm not a lawyer
I don't know I'm not a lawyer. I'm just like the government I
don't know what should I know what should I know? Who should I
know? is sad and sorry status. Cop sorry state of affairs
ladies and gentlemen. Just sorry.
Top that you know, that's a toughy.
Okay, two quickies before we take a break. All right, sent to
me by one of our producers who did a fabulous job. A nifty job
of clipping little clips here. So many quality clips as of
course, I love the Kurt Vonnegut story about, you know, the
everyone is equal and how we are proceeding down a path in the
world. Just because we have so much media and we're good at it
here in America. We happen to have lots of reports on it and
clips. This this would fall under the heading of this
there's no winning. We don't like to foster a competitive
atmosphere but we laugh a lot. Now everyone hug and share a
secret.
All new this morning. School officials in Hillsborough County
are banning the term drop out
and said the Tampa Bay Times reports the district will refer
to their dropout prevention program as education alternative
services. School officials say they're changing the term
because it's negative and produces a stigma. They also
want to make sure the new program name emphasizes student
success.
Wow. That had been clip of the day if it wasn't for sharp is
another one that is to somebody said that that in
Yeah, one of our producers. Wow. And the second one Rei club.
That's local news,
I guess. And the
second one, yeah, second one ready.
Tim in Orange County is causing a lot of controversy. Under the
pupil progression plan metal, the
pupil progression plan. Wow. That's beautiful
system in Orange County is causing a lot of controversy.
Under the pupil progression plan middle and high school students
cannot get lower than a 50. When it comes to quarterly or end of
semester grades. School board members say the plan gives
students a second chance but teachers say they should be the
one setting the standard when it comes to those scores.
By taking it just to 50 we give the child the chance to steal an
F. But if they turn things around, they get tutoring they
they become more engaged in the classwork they understand the
important then at least they will not still fail the teacher.
You can't get below a 50 now
so you can't get a zero No, you can't get used to be able to get
a zero they give you a zero a zero
you can just can't get
it. Well, this what are they wine tasters? Ah, this is what
the wine tasting the 200 point scale does. You can't get below
a 50
Well not make why not make the scale 50 Then
I don't know is saying you can't get below 50. Anyway, sales of
wine is the reason so you get a lot of high scores no matter
what
this is why we are the future of media's is because we have the
experts. We have people in the field. We have people boots on
the ground with no ulterior motive other than to make us
laugh.
And laugh we do.
Absolutely. And we do it like this.
I'm going to show my school by Jonah to no agenda. Imagine all
the people who could do that. Oh, yeah, that'd be fun.
Got a really long note from I'm not sure if she wants me to
mention her name, Jen, would you say Jen? And I'm going to take
that I'm not going to read that. I'm just gonna read a sentence.
I'm going to deconstruct the note and then see if there's
anything in here that would is something we need to discuss,
John speculation that some people are put off by the format
of the show has merit. Oh, this was initially the case with me.
It really struck a chord and it is prompted me to send in my
first contribution for the best podcast in the universe, which
regrettably is not as not as much as she liked. And she goes
on. So I'm thinking that phenomena this two women both
are women, that first one brought this up, and she says
she's a huge fan. Now if you remember the last show of the
show before now we have Jen here who says the same thing. I find
interesting. I don't know if anything we do
at the format being what that because we have done
jingles that ridicule. Oh, that the ridicule the ridicule of the
news because I let's imagine that you're you're locked in to
the like, you know, an Obama by I think a lot of these people
may have been bots. Okay. As opposed to, you know, that kind
of the, because, well, independents have always been
skeptical and all we do is reconfirm that there's just
skepticism, but somebody that's all in, and then we come along
with the stuff that we say, and it's counter to everything that
the media does counter, almost one ad and
no, in most cases, it is exactly a turn we turn the world upside
down.
Yeah. And it may be it just it makes people nervous. Or may it
take I you know, I don't know. But this is a second female
woman who has mentioned this, but now they're all in. And so I
don't know. Well, we're good.
We're like Vegemite.
God, let's hope not. I could never get into bedroom. I mean
either. Brian, we want to thank a few people for show 663

Institute, and this was a half hour program on Sky Australia, I
think. And it was a point counterpoint about climate
change. And it was one of The best discussions I have heard
where even the host is to host I'm not quite sure what this
program is to hosts who also participate, but kind of
neutral. And I pulled three clips from it two short ones one
longer one. Because it also got funny, and it showed how when
the all in climate guys who are a turned out aren't really
scientists and this guy certainly isn't. And you may
want to look up the client, the climate Institute in Australia,
not the climate institute.org. But the climate institute.com.au
I think, to the show notes, it was it was just a really good
discussion. And I was very proud that this kind of conversation
is able to be broadcast still in Australia without the ridicule
and people having shouted down Yes, exactly. So here is the
first bit with Patrick Moore, co founder of Greenpeace,
he is since there's been any warming of the globe whatsoever
and going on about well, it's quite
spectacular, actually. Because there was a lot of concern that
the world would warm if we kept pouring carbon dioxide into the
atmosphere. And even though in the last 18 years, 25% of all
the co2 that humans have ever put into the atmosphere has gone
in there, there has been no significant warming of the
world's climate. And so therefore, it brings into
serious question, whether or not there really is a strong
relationship between carbon dioxide and warming of the
Earth's atmosphere. Professor Liu and
Jackson is in our Melbourne studio. I just wonder, What's
your response to that? Is the earth warming? Well, it is. And
there's no doubt about that. Really, if you look at the
observational record, you look at what's happening to our ice
sheets, you look at what's happening in the oceans, there's
all clear evidence that the world is warming. Yes, the rate
of warming has slowed. In the last few years, it's not as
hasn't been as rapid as it has been previously. But there are
potentially very good reasons for that there. We have natural
variability in the climate system. We also are seeing some
parts of the ocean heater heating up quite significantly.
So the extra energy we're trapping in the system is going
into different places, not just into our surface temperature. So
that's
just the opening there where the guy is already waffling a little
bit by saying well, you know the warming is in other places. It's
not just in the atmosphere. And now it's going to get
interesting as for the first time I've ever heard
counterpoint, point counterpoint on the Arctic ice loss versus
the Antarctic ice gain, I
think you would agree on that the Antarctic ice is at the
highest level, it's been the sea ice around Antarctica is more
extensive than it has been since we started measuring it. In
1979. If you add the area of sea ice around Antarctica, with the
area of sea ice in the Arctic, there is actually no trend
whatsoever since 1979. It's about the same as it was then.
And when you say it's slowing down, it's actually slowed down
to zero, which is what we call the pause. And the IPCC agrees
with that. The East Anglia University agrees with that.
I'm sorry, Patrick. That's actually not what the IPCC say,
Yes, that's what it is. Last three decades have been the
warmest on record, and they've been warmer than everyone before
it. They also say that the global increase in temperature
has increased over the period you're talking about, yes, not
as quickly as it had in the previous period. But they've
also said it's actually increasing so it's actually
incorrect to say if you look at the full body of the IPCC work
work
that was interesting to say the fall but you have to look at the
full body of the IPCC work which is filled with most likely kind
of likely we think so um, this is total total bull crap
to suggest that the world isn't warming and yes, they're parts
of the Arctic get parts of the Antarctic sorry, have a higher
level of sea ice than they have in the past and there's good
reason for that. But it's the global climate is changing,
which is promoting greater winds which is promoting greater ice
buildup in certain parts of the Antarctic.
So he's pulling out all the all the guys pretty good, but not
good enough for this very calm, cool and collected Patrick
Moore, now comes the death. What do you call that? The fun the
Death Blow, Blow Death Blow, which comes in in a 123 punch.
Where the host finally says look, has now has it warmed or
not in the past 18 years. And you're gonna find you to hear a
couple of funny things. And then finally, it's almost like the
Hitler card of the climate debate
as the Earth warmed in the last 18 years or not. Let's hear from
both men. Firstly, Dr. Moore.
Well, there, the satellite record shows zero warming in the
last 18 years, despite the fact that one quarter of all the sea
too we have ever emitted because of the rapidly increasing rate
of co2 emissions from China and Russia and Indonesia and India,
and the United States and around the world has happened in the
last 18 years. So there's a tremendous disconnect between
the rate of carbon dioxide buildup in the atmosphere. And
the warming, which has essentially disappeared, gone to
zero.
Well, first of all, first of all, I should clarify, I'm
actually not a professor. You can't be
oops, little little problem there in the production. So he's
not a professor been calling him professor for the whole show so
far. He's not a professor and other host says, Well, you can
be for one night you can because because it said everywhere,
Professor, everyone looks like a douche bag now. And so now he
cops to what he really is.
Tell our viewers what exactly opposition is.
I'm Deputy CEO at the climate Institute. Right.
So which you should look up, John, it is the Bonanza look at
their partners. But
I tell you, the core of the core issue is that Patrick's entitled
to his opinion, as the public and as policymakers or the media
commentators, we need to make it we need to make a judgement
based on the evidence. And I think everyone would agree with
that. If you look at the evidence that was put forward by
CSIRO, NASA, every major research institution on the
planet, they've all come to basically the same conclusion
that
the VA now he makes a very grave error by mentioning NASA
is continuing to boom, albeit not as fast as it was. And the
human activities is the principal cause behind that.
I don't know if blacks have sort of learned all this stuff off.
And you say, Well, if I keep repeating it often enough,
someone will believe me. You mentioned NASA, I've got a quote
here from NASA. In the 21st century, greenhouse gases have
continued to accumulate in the atmosphere, just as they did in
the 20th century, but global average surface temperatures
have stopped rising in tandem with Agassiz, Dr. Moore. Is that
what you were saying? Exactly?
By the way, you can say this till you're blue in the face to
people who are all in there. I'll just tell you that you're
crazy. You're stupid. That's not true. Now.
I actually stunned by the reaction, you have it. Michael
Crighton talked about this one in his last days about how they,
nobody listens. The reason they're all very few of them
have ever been scientists worked in science took science, they
don't know anything. But they were all lockstep with this. And
it's, you know, it's part of his hatred of the petroleum
companies. There's a lot of socio rational,
it's phobia.
It's totally irrational.
So but so when you do this, these guys have this guy, as the
climate Institute. It's a PR company. And they work with the
biggest all the big names are there. They are part of the big
movement, which is money, it's all about money.
Well, I'm gonna apply it I don't even have to put this in the
book, because I think it's already happening. But I will
predict that the climate change movement will shift years.
Because of this, at some point, people are going to look at and
say, This guy's right doesn't it hasn't been any change. It's
very interesting. You say this, but I think they're going to
shift gears and push to a cooler. No. Ocean acidification,
here it comes. I'm glad you said that. So first, the guy is going
to pull the hit record. And Patrick Moore is going to talk
about the ocean stuff. And the truth of what's really
happening. The issue is,
I think we need to disconnect two issues here. One is
absolutely right. The level of emissions that we're putting
into the atmosphere from carbon pollution has been increasingly
very rapidly in the last carbon pollution years. Surface
Temperature based on the on the all the evidence that's been put
forward by the survey by the international community are
increasing. But that doesn't mean to say other things aren't
happening at the moment. But we've created as a change in the
LNG balance balance of the of the climate system, which is the
equivalent roughly, of detonating a bomb about four
atomic bombs about the size of Hiroshima every every second.
And energy has to go somewhere.
Yeah, you heard it. And you and a bunch of more people are going
to start saying this, like every day we're putting so much carbon
pollution is the equivalent of detonating four Hiroshima bombs.
And Patrick Moore is going to put a stop to this some
of its going into the surface temperature some of its going
into the ocean some of its melting ice and the overall
picture is very clear that
that is a seriously silly analogy to talk about Hiroshima
bombs exploding. What you're saying is that you believe that
more heat is coming into the Earth system. And and you don't
know where it's going. You some people are saying it's in the
deep ocean now. It's hot. heading in the deep ocean,
that's where they postulated it must be, has been just because
it's not warming the atmosphere. But the fact is, is possible
that that heat is actually not coming in to the Earth's
atmosphere, because climate sensitivity to carbon dioxide is
nowhere near as much as people thought before. And many people
are now beginning to think that the positive feedbacks that they
were building into these computer models are wrong. And
there may in fact, be a negative feedback to co2 increase, all
else being equal, it is true that carbon dioxide would cause
some warming. But what if the water vapor actually suppresses
the co2 impact? Because all else is not equal? There are many
factors at work here,
and we're going towards cooling.
So it could be yeah, I've always said that on this show, it'd be
even though we're kind of, but I get a bit. But at the same time,
there are guys that from the 1970s, we talked about this
before, from the global cooling. Panic took place from 1976 to
1978. And many of the scientists, the same people, or
the same scientists on this side of it, and many of those that
were on board are still on board with global cooling, as well as
worth it. It was worth
it. Yep. But I liked that, you know, oh, it's in the ocean,
it's sitting in the deep, deep ocean, that's where the heat is,
it's coming. It's coming. We're doomed, we are doomed, our head
is gone. We're all gonna die. Well, it's an interesting to
watch, because at a certain point, there will be enough very
clear statements from the scientific community that people
will have to say, Yeah, you know, it's very hard, you know,
people they're all in, they really believe it. The President
keeps standing up there and saying it. But it's just, it's
just not not true.
It's so obviously political to me, too. That's the strange
thing about it is, and and I don't know, it's actually the
lack of discussion at any level that makes sense. And listen to
people like Joy Bay Haar, you know, go on and on about how I
miss her show. What show did is does she have a show now? Is
that what you're telling?
Oh, I think she was on the, you know, she was on the current
net. They tried to put her on current than that folded. I
don't think she has a show. And I think she's never gonna get
another one. But yeah, she was very entertaining, and to say,
kind of a female version of Al Sharpton in terms of her thought
process. But, yeah, I just baffles me because they do have
all the there's temperature information that we're not
saying what the guy is, right? There's no change for 18 years.
It's bullcrap. And these command people that are really naive
about computer science, and they buy into this idea of a computer
model, I sent a tweet around is ago showing the computer model
that predicted that the volcanic ash would win the first game of
the World Series, a computer model. And of course they lost
and no compute when the volcanic ash that's another good one. You
were always you moan about that one. Yeah, the computer models
suck. They can't even give us what weather is going to be like
tomorrow.
Weather is not climate.
Well, it is now that well, it is It depends on whether or not if
it if it validates, than it is climate. If it doesn't validate,
then it's not a climate. I mean, come on. Has anybody seen
through this charade? No,
no, no. No, they don't
know. And if you only have dinner with your robot friends,
they'll think you're nuts. Just a denier?
No, they know they don't like science. We know they think I'm
a nut. That's obvious. There's nothing new there. There was
actually there was one of our producers Glenn caught this and
I thought it was an interesting theory. It was about this
report. Evening.
It is great to start another week with you and we begin with
an urgent warning for drivers for families across this country
from the federal government. It involves airbags and millions of
cars on the roads right now. Are they at risk of exploding.
Tonight, they're urging nearly 5 million families to take their
cars to be repaired right now, because of a defective airbag
that can explode without warning, sending dangerous
materials shards of metal flying through the car. Safety
Advocates say This brings the total up to 20 million cars.
Today. Here we ask is your car, one of them and where were those
airbags made? ABC chief investigative correspondent
Brian Ross was
so Wow. What was interesting about this,
I noticed this story floating through but I didn't really
focus on it.
Well, what was interesting and this is what producer Glenn
said. He said, if you read the NHTSA that's the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration, if you read
their actual advisory, and instead advisory is and I have
it here, vehicle owners with defective airbags urged to take
immediate action. The mess which comes with urgency especially
pay note for owners of vehicles affected by regional recalls in
the following error areas. Florida, Puerto Rico, limited
areas of the Gulf of Mexico and Texas, Alabama, Mississippi,
Georgia, Louisiana, as well as Guam sigh pan America, Samoa and
the Virgin Islands in Hawaii, but mainly Southern Red states.
And his thesis, which I think is a good one, is that this so
called recall, which is it's really vehicles that are from
2000 to 2005. And it's an advisory
it's not a doesn't apply to my old 1993. Lexus.
Let me see I have the list here. He says he believes that is put
out there at this very interesting timing to give
current lawmakers in these in the States, you know, a reason
to pontificate and look how the government is trustworthy and
looking out for you vote Democrat.
That could be I think, almost if we interpreted all the news for
the next few weeks, it's all going to be like this. Every is
going to be vote Democrat or vote Republican depending on
what who plans what story
but you have a Lexus SC
Yeah, from what year 93
Let me say that 2002 News. Does yours even have an airbag?
Oh, yeah. Yeah, I gotta have to hand crank the engine.
Contact 2002 to 2005 Lexus SC potentially as also as
potentially potentially put in no one is gonna go in and get
the airbag replace got expensive. Yeah, I think
it's right now the airbag costs more than my car's worth.
The Dodge Ram 2003. So I'm lucky there. I have a 2002. So it's
not my Dodge and not your Lexus.
Good. Yay. Yeah.
We wind up with
older cars don't vote dead. They're all gonna vote
Republican anyway. So who cares?
I just thought it was not a bad theory. No, I
liked it. I like it.
Because it was such a strange story. Not a straight now. This
is just a throwaway clip. But holy crap. See this on an outfit
that wants to be serious about their news? Of course, Carol,
CNN, I mean, who can really take her serious at all? And by the
way,
you've got me interrupt you. I've got the dish, right. Yeah.
CNN has been pulled off the dish. What? Yes. All the Turner
stuff has been in dispute. Oh, so I go to the I go to see.
Yeah, guess what they substituted CNN with
MSNBC. That wasn't on already.
No, it was but now that's on two channels. Wow.
Well, that's no good. No, no. What's the dispute? Do we know
what the actual dispute is about what he wants money? Well, yeah,
I'd like to know. Well, this is interesting. If there was a good
article in let me see where's it would Michael wolf was at Wired.
Me see. Hollywood Reporter magazine. Very good article.
People should read that. Hollywood reporter.com Michael
Wolf. And he said something he his thesis is very good. I feel
about HBO and CBS are now starting to stream. Right. He
says if you think the internet is disrupting television, you're
wrong. Television is disrupting the internet. And I agree with
him. I think he's absolutely right. Television is taking
over. Every no one wants independently produced content.
They're all mind controlled into wanting ah, this was this whole
thing on Twitter for like 20 minutes about oh, if I you know,
I want to HBO and some sports and some CBS and everybody wants
all this mainstream content streaming and
yeah, Netflix. I know. It's kind of interesting, except for the
millennials who don't watch any of that stuff. And they've got
all their
the millennial chick who was saying it the whole time and
she's just on board. Maybe Maybe I don't know.
Well, we'll see because podcasting is one of the threads
to
it is the threat it is the threat it's I don't think it's a
threat anymore. I keep hearing you're pushing their podcast one
or our one app which
they're gonna pull that they can't. I know they can't the
lucky thing is is that terrestrial radio is so bad and
filled with commercials to such an extreme that I don't think
listeners can put up with it. It's different with TV TV has
still has incredible production values for some of the shows and
they're well written they pay people big money and they pay
writers money and there's a lot of
residuals and you set up as a real system that
works radio has got none of that
the problem is it unless it's by subscription the free
advertising model really is not going to work very
well
no in my opinion, we don't use it in my opinion. We don't use
it for a number of different reasons
for us but I'm just saying that for the TV services I
don't know the TV Oh no, they're going to bed yet but I've been
getting once in a while I'll miss a show that I didn't record
or something. And I'll just go stream it a lot most most of the
shows are streamable and they they don't have as many
commercials but they have commercials and slit and you
can't you can there's no way of getting or you can skip now got
the thing. Yeah, so you have to watch this commercial and they
didn't give you a countdown you got one minute
well you know, we know who the winner is in that Adobe Adobe
and I think they even say it right here in this article which
was it kind of slipped in let me just see this for a second let
me search for this was very interesting. Maybe it wasn't in
this article Adobe reports numbers to the to industries
because they have all kinds of reporting shit that's going back
to Adobe in their in their flash player. It's really quite
interesting to see this happen. Adobe really is not a good
company in their heart that Aspies now and got that way just
market position you I think he wants you to happened that
became the de facto way to distribute video. You know,
Flash video that was it? That's it. Yeah, HTML five. They're
trying to trying to trying but I don't think they keep trying and
trying. Anyway, this is back to the original point. This was a
very disturbing, certainly from a female point of view that this
took place on CNN.
Okay, I'm just gonna come right out and say this is quite
possibly the best minute and a half of audio we've ever come
across. We've come across it a long time and who way a massive
brawl in Anchorage, Alaska, reportedly involving Sarah Palin
kids and her husband. It was sparked after someone pushed
once
she thought it was so fantastic. They've just love the crazy
payloads. Wow, very disturbing.
It's very disturbing. What is right what is this preoccupation
stem from women again, of course pushing the Democrat agenda.
Yes.
And when and and what happened here is men were beating up on
girls and women and she finds this funny. I don't know what
happened there. I know. And are they possibly a bunch of the you
know, Yahoo, Alaskan rednecks, whatever you want to call them?
Yeah, maybe. But still, like, why would you find that so
great. What kind of bleed this really interesting how the how
that how Sarah Palin went from a vice presidential candidate to
to this. I find it very it's just it's an women women doing?
Men don't except for the Martin Bashir who said she would
shitting her face or something
with regards to creep. Yeah.
I am not okay with that. That's bullying. By the way. That's,
that's actual bullying. That's taking place. But okay. It's
unpopular to saying, What do you stick up for Sarah Palin?
Well, yeah, another another interesting meme. Yeah, she's
just a person, you know, whatever.
You stick up for Sarah Palin. Yeah, so So I got it. Well, I
got a clip that kind of along these lines. Yeah. There's a
female writer named NAS czar of FISI, who was Iranian. And she
just finished a book called The Republic of imagination. And
she's an intellectual that has interesting commentary. And so
she was on being interviewed by the PBS NewsHour that one of the
guys is at the end. And I just think this is some of the most
interesting commentary I want you to just it's not sure, but
it's not real long. Play and clip one.
So it's author is a czar, an FEC who previously addressed them in
the best seller Reading Lolita in Tehran. And welcome Azhar.
Thank you. So they're in Tehran in those years. literature was
dangerous here. Very different, right?
The way I feel is that books are dangerous in their own way in
every society, but the way we treat them here, the way we
destroy them here is not through guns or bullets or jail. We just
become indifferent towards the indifference. Yeah, you know, in
differences one of the most fatal Other weapons you can use
because you don't see you don't hear you don't touch. Ray
Bradbury says that you don't have to burn books to destroy a
culture only get people not to read. You know, I mean, they
almost sort of like flowers, they just wither and die if
they're no readers.
Okay? And she goes on and discusses she, by the way,
blames Common Core and everything else for this whole
phenomenon. But she she started noticing this in the 90s. And I
think I've noticed it to a word, you know, people aren't reading
even though I have to say Jeff Bezos has done more for readers
than anybody complimented and he's gotten the Washington Post
will be publishing forever. And he just wants people to read
because it's good for his business, but I get the sense
that he's a big time reader and people who are very adamant
about it. So let's play part two,
Bobby three presents
an opportunity to get Babbitt
Oh, I'm sorry. He was out of order. Yes, my mistake. Here
we go. And I noticed that when I returned to America, in 1997, I
noticed that in the way they were being taught at
universities a lot of time in many English classes, not all by
any means. They were taught as handmaidens to something
political, or ideological.
What books were handmade Yeah, they
were just used to promote some political agenda. And I noticed
this too, the book reading was a die seen in college campuses are
terrible. There's a bunch of propaganda is bulk of they don't
have anybody reading the classics anymore. It's his old
kind of shot away too. And
typically, there's always the professor's book is on the list,
which is really expensive,
price overpriced scam. And so she in her new book, she breaks
apart three famous American novels that have this ability to
portend the future or at least predict what's going on today.
And she talks a little bit about Babbitt, I want to recommend as
a really fun novel as the Sinclair Lewis novel, I think
was written in 1928 or so. And it was in Claire Lewis
is the not in our time. What is it?
Sinclair Lewis is one of our Nobel Prize winning novel,
right. But what is what is the book that we've discussed
before? I don't
know that we discussed and clearly this, of course, come
on, it can't happen here. Can't happen here. Exactly. Yeah.
That's what got him to the when he wrote it can't happen here.
He got a great book, by the way, great.
It's a great book, great book, very entertaining. And he got
thrown out of the intellectual elite circle because it's a book
about greatness about liberals. And so that was the end for him
in terms of that sort of John Dos Passos The same thing
happened him and so let me I'm gonna
order this book right away. Bob Babbitt isn't the name of the
book.
Yeah. Babbitt. I mean, it's a very funny book. It's a by the
way, she explains that a little bit, but then she goes into
condemning some of the thinking that's in the book. Okay. Not
not to, not to thinking that was written is the mockery of the
thinking. In other words, he points out the foibles of this
type of thinking, okay, Louis, does great book play. Yeah,
Bobby three presents is more than anything else.
Standardization of thought, you know, he's home the way he
speaks, all of them are according to a rule. But it is
that standardization of thought and embodied, you know, it's
almost it will soon be 100 years, since that book was
written the standard for success, like now is money. And
even the way he speaks, you know, the way we talk about job
creators, right
job creators, but you take it further. So you look into our
schools, you look at the emphasis on outcomes on testing
on the on the Common Core, and you see something that is too
much focused on utility on on jobs on outcomes.
Yes. And in Babbitt, his son Ted tells him, I don't know why we
have to read this Shakespeare and them to read and he said,
read Shakespeare and then because you have to pass, you
know that that is his philosophy. And that is what I
see in Common Core is that it's a manifestation of an attitude.
Yes, I agree. It is a manifestation of an attitude.
Very good panic. Yeah. And does she ever does she have a book
out as well as her book? This
is the one I mentioned, which is the Republic of imagination.
And this is about America. Yeah.
It's about her concerns. And she, she, it sounds like a good
book. I may get the book myself. I'll get a Kindle. I'm going
you know, I have resorted to paperbacks. And I it's only
because I've noticed my own habit where we, Mickey has one
of those paperwhites that you really like and I still have my
Original Kindle, which, when the Paperwhite came out, the
original Kindles went for nine bucks or what I can't remember.
And I just find that the key I don't know on the Kindle, I get
distracted. It's I when I read a book, I typically will read it
out in one sitting or in two sessions. And I can read very
fast and, and I know it's for some reason, just the paperback
paperback non hardcover paperback just works so much
better for me. i That's what you should get. Yeah, but it doesn't
seem to be available in paperback yet.
This book was just came out. You'll probably
get it in heartbeats in Kindle two, but I'll get an hardcover.
And I just picked up babbit three bucks.
Yeah, I have a first I have a collection of I know this is
literally a feat but I have a fairly decent collection of
first edition Sinclair Lewis's books. Oh, nice. And I have
Babbitt and they didn't get him for nothing gave me Sinclair
Lewis has been marginalized for so long. Eventually, he'll pick
up in value, I think, but nobody cares about the you know, it's
not promoting Democratic agenda.
A question for you of a technology nature. But yes, I
know you're a guy who would know this. Mickey wants to do
something. She has an art project with photography, and
she wants a projector to project images on a wall that would be
reasonably big. She doesn't want to spend a lot of money. Right?
How many lumens would she need? Or could you recommend a
particular device? The reason I asked is because it just pops up
on Amazon. So
depends on the environment. If it's in a darkened room, I still
think you need over 2000 lumens generally and I think you can
get some that are pretty high. She
would she might cheat she will she won't be using that's a good
question. Because if she uses flash, she won't see anything.
She would have to light it with no flash.
And I depends on how big she wants. If she wants 100 inches,
probably. Yeah, then it's gonna have to be in a dark room.
At the garage.
Okay, if it's dark, yeah, that would be fine.
But But she'll need some light is she'll have to have light
because she's gonna photograph with someone in front of it or
something. So
in front of the screen and there's image on her not flat.
She's gonna have to go she won't she won't be able to flash left.
Yeah, okay, so you have to go with high AASA and then she's
gonna have to she asked lenses yesterday.
Well, you know what she, you know, they she gave her to
borrow what they lent her that Pentax. Oh, that thing, Paul, do
you remember the model number of that thing?
Some like a 648 or some 600? Series? 52
megapixels? Yeah. Holy crap.
Yeah, I know. You can see a you can see a bug on someone. As he
was at
Oh, it's, I mean, I took a picture of that thing. And it
looked I took a picture and it looked like a picture. I'm I'm
stupid. I can't I have no talent for taking pictures. It look
real. I mean, this thing is amazing. Well, that.
Yeah. Yeah. Not too bad. She
has to bring it back.
Well, you know, she didn't save up and buy it. That's for sure.
There'll be used ones available. It'd be a little cheaper. I
think about the 100 megapixel model that will be available
to do you think? How many lumens 2000 lumens. You said?
I'm thinking 24 2000 And up. Okay, they get it more
expensive. More lumens are more expensive. Yeah. Be nice to have
3000 I think
and and what resolution?
Oh, you have to have? Oh, geez, that's a good question is x g?
You need the ones that there's a bunch of there's there's some
projectors now that are 1080 P, but my experience is that a
seven was what's the seven I can't remember anymore because
they don't use this this resolution 727 20 P excuse me,
which is I think most of these will do. Like it'll do like 1080
by seven DLP or LCD 1080 by 768 or nanopi. If you can get well,
you're gonna know it's alive. We'll talk about this later. You
know, help. I think I mean, it is boring. Because I'm flying.
You're floundering. That's why it's here is because I have to
go online.
That's okay. That's okay. You I know you'll help us out. Okay.
But it depends 720 P would be fine. Which is I think at 1080
by 768. Which in turn into 720 P pretty easily.
Did you make anything of that Russian submarine in Sweden's
coastal waters that you know, but that seems to happen every
20 years.
Did you understand anything about that story?
Oh,
the thing that I thought was funny, which, of course I don't
know if it's true, but it was reported didn't wasn't foreign
policy. Swedish Navy continues to stock the waters off the
coast of its capital for a foreign all but certainly
Russian submarine and the country's military brass on
Tuesday sounded an exasperated note to describe the
unsuccessful hunt. Notice the word hunt every single time.
Yeah, we get at Hunt for Red October. This is very serious.
This is very serious. sverker goransson The military's top
millet the country's top military commander told
reporters quote I would even go so far to say as That's fucked
up.
Nobody's watching watch. Yeah,
it's fucked up. He said. A Swede said that the top military
commander said it's fucked up. And that comes from Oh, we have
a we have audio or as a video of it I guess. So if we can get any
of our Swedish show that Do we have any for anyone? Sweden?
Yes, we
do. We have quite a few.
Which I'm surprised. I'm surprised and shocked. You have
not already told us what about this story? And if the guy said
that then hello. What does that mean? What am I supposed to make
of that?
No. But now that you mentioned I'm going to start looking into
it myself. Yeah.
Okay. The the total CEO of total oil okay, just briefly on this.
First of all, reports about being a light aircraft kit. This
is a Falcon 50. A Tristar three engine beautiful plane. I've
flown on one beautiful plane. Makes no sense to kill this guy.
You Well, yeah, sure. The. He said things about being you
know, we should be able to buy gas and oil products and euros
but at the set dollar price. I mean, sure. He said stuff like
that. But if you want to get rid of this guy, why try to do it in
the third largest airport in Russia with a snowplow. This is
not a this is not a good plan. And of course, we really know
absolutely nothing. We know nothing about what happened. We
have no audio. We have no data, we just have nothing. The only
thing is it is quite annoying for the rest of the United
States, certainly and for the pro sanction people that total
and Gazprom, Arsenio still have a was a 29. We killed them
through a $30 billion deal together working on fields in
Siberia. It's you know that the sanctions are just bullcrap. But
still, it makes no sense. Guy sounded like a hoot. By the way,
everyone says this guy was fun. Didn't need a lot of sleep. He
was always talking about world affairs and drinking like to
drink and hang out and talk until deepen the night. I liked
these kinds of guys. Yeah. And he was he went to see Medvedev,
but just none of it makes sense.
Well, we'll keep an eye on in the background. But you're just
ahead and I'm not I don't think so. I really don't I don't see
it. I don't think so. It doesn't make any sense to me.
Well, my most interesting story, and I'm going to finish this my
last clips. Okay. This is the women freezing eggs clip, which
I think is semi disgusting as a story. And this the intro,
for decades, medical advances have made it possible for women
to postpone or extend their ability to have children. Now
two big tech firms Apple and Facebook say they will pay up to
$20,000 to allow employees to freeze their eggs for later
fertilization. That decision has sparked a fair bit of
conversation about the benefits, the risks and the choices women
could face.
Ahead. So Apple and Facebook. And the reason of course, is the
sucker women into doing a lot of work because it looks like they
have a career path when in fact, if you look at the CEOs, and
there's plenty of women CEOs from I mean, there's plenty and
they're all in their late 50s. Just like most of the giants,
CEO, male CEOs or CEOs, males, a lot of them in the 60s and some
in their 70s Human and these are the big companies, not a little
companies got you know, a start up with a female CEO. I mean,
Sheryl Sandberg is not a CEO, for that matter. She runs the
place. I'm gonna ask you, I really doubt that but whatever
the case, and so they brought on that they talked about this a
little bit. They didn't get into the data. Two people one person
thought there was a bunch of bullcrap they shouldn't be doing
this. And the other girl I know is the one that I thought we'd
be my last clip is just one of these Silicon Valley sounding
women that uses the word opportunity too much, and then
even says awesome and she is kind of the apologist for this
idea because she wrote a book on how she had her eggs, Frozen
even though she's doesn't who knows why and then she So she
wrote a book on it, she kind of defends us a little bit, but
it's so weak. And she's so, so terrible. Listen to that I
thought I'd end with this and freezing your embryos.
So Elizabeth Richards, you've written a book about this.
You've talked to women about this, I understand you can have
your own eggs frozen. What are the advantages here?
Well, that's a great opportunity for women, the fact that these
companies are covering it, and the fact that other companies
are now being influenced to cover, it makes the option
available for more women who are maybe who wouldn't have paid for
it on their own or didn't have the opportunity to pay for it.
So they'll have more options in the future to have their own
biological children, which is awesome. That said, this is
really uncharted territory, because the first wave of women
who froze their eggs, when it first became available about a
decade ago, pretty much froze, because they didn't have a
partner or because they had gone through a divorce or weren't in
the right relationship. So they froze for love. Now we're seeing
you know, this being put out there as something you know,
what a 32 year old freeze because she wanted to put more
years in her career. So it is Uncharted, we don't know how
women will make those decisions in terms of planning their their
family and their work and their love lives and their dating
lives.
Hmm, the other woman says, this is one of the most uncomfortable
procedures, first, you have to take some pills to get a bunch
of eggs, because normally you don't have them coming out fully
formed, you know, it's like a chicken. And so you have to take
some, and then you have to have them removed, she says extremely
painful and inconvenient. It's just one of the worst things you
can do. And and doesn't see the rationale for it. The original
rationale, of course, was that she mentioned not not working
for some company, and for the cut to me, for companies like
Apple and Facebook to and I'd see the hand of Sheryl Sandberg
here for them to promote this idea, I think is borderline
sadistic, united, sick and offering false promise to win.
I also understand it's very positive, you know, you can have
a career and a child. If you have a partner. It's easier. You
can share burdens. I mean, this is this is not this has been
done before. Does it doesn't not unheard of. No. And that's very
interesting. Well, here's the question. Are you How old were
you? And when Jay was born, if you don't mind me asking.
But see, nine, you got it didn't think about it. Well, the I was
pretty old. Let me let me put it this way. It was in my 40s.
So Patricia had Christina, when she was 40, she was pretty much
a 40, almost 41. And I think there is a difference between
and this is just me from my perspective, there's a
difference between a parent who is closer and age. So Christina
is 2450. So I'm twice her age, her mom is 65 now and the
relationship is different. I don't know if it's good, or if
it's bad. I think that in the child rearing process, my
personal experience was I found it to be somewhat of a negative
from her mom's side and many things, mainly because of her
being from a different perspective of the world. And
one of the things they brought up in this discussion was kind
of contradictory. One was women are more equipped to have babies
if they had to, they're just their bodies when they're in
their late teens and 20s as opposed to when they're 40. When
Well, of course of course you have the health argument and
over
the counter argument to that is kids born of older parents tend
to be smarter. There's a bunch of documentation. I've have a
body of knowledge or body with evidence,
an ever increasing body of evidence using body
whatever that says. And the kids I knew in high school I do
remember this the oldest a parentage was this one kid who
was the smartest kid in the school.
Okay, there's something to that. Do you feel that having a child
at an older age detracted from your lifestyle?
No, actually, what my consideration is that it
actually helped me since I'm a writer. And you know, somebody
was supposed to be commenting on society of trend analysis. I'm
better off with. Of course, this is ending as Jay gets older, but
I could keep up with stuff a lot easier. Like JC still kind of
keeps up and guy getting he. You don't feel that it hampered your
life and I don't see a playboy in Hong Kong. Well,
how about how about from me? Does she ever did she complain?
No, she doesn't complain about at all. How old was she when
she had her? have Eric is the oldest so she was in her 20s
know when she had J? No, she was like 39. Okay. But, Eric, you
know, she had kids all along, so it wasn't as though she wasn't
equipped to for it.
And do you feel that? If you don't mind me asking, do you? Do
you feel that you've, you've produced a child who was going
into a world where she has no chance of becoming anything
because it's fucked? No, that's dumb. I mean, that is just dumb.
If you were my age right now, would you? If you had the
opportunity, would you have a kid?
I go to Hong Kong and be a playboy.
That's what I'm thinking. Thank you very much. And with that,
ladies and gentlemen, we have come to the conclusion of our
show. Yes, I do want to play my Jacob Appelbaum clip, please. He
was interviewed for on the media, which is on the media is
a pretty good show. I like listening to hazards
and hazards, but it's also kind of, you know, a tool.
Yeah. But he did not just submit to an interview he had. What
would you call it? He had some demands. Loo, which I found to
be in context of Jacob Appelbaum. Very interesting.
Jacob Appelbaum, the hacktivist from WikiLeaks only wanted you
to talk to him in a sauna naked.
He said he wanted to take Osama and that's where he wanted to be
interviewed. But later it occurred to me that clever that
that was one way to be sure I didn't have a concealed
surveillance device on me.
He was interviewing him.
What that what would the guy jumped to the conclusion about a
concealed surveillance device? He's recording him? Yes. He was
interviewing what you needed. What he was gonna have a
secondary he's gonna be carrying a wire. It was just Jacob Apple
Obama's weirdo. Yeah, that's, that would be my guest. Weirdo.
Just a weirdo.
Oh, well fall for it as you will.
Another possible Clip of the Day. But no,
well, thanks to the witch for at least getting me up and running
out of steam. Now the stand desk is down to sitting position. I
have my elbows on the desk. I'm barely getting through this.
Well, you sound like a pro. Wow.
The show must go on.
astonishing to me.
Well, I can do this is what I do. It's all that I do. And the
only reason I can do it is because people support this
program and I appreciate it.
Yes. And you Well, you shouldn't we do appreciate the support.
The vortech.org/na
is where you can show your support anything helps. It
really does make all the difference in the world. And
we'll be doing it again for you Sunday. Who knows what we'll run
into but clearly this Iowa thing is Iowa play that as an end of
show clip. What a moron. Good chat and as always, John.
And, Michelle. Yes.
still barely surviving Ebola here. And FEMA Region six. In
the morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry.
And from Northern Silicon Valley. I'm John C. Dvorak.
