Hey, good to see. Adam curry, John C. Dvorak and Sunday
October 26 2014. Time for your gizmo nation media assassination
episode 664. This is no agenda celebrating seven years by
exercising self quarantine in FEMA Region six here in the
capital of the drone Star State Austin, Texas in the morning,
everybody. I'm Adam curry,
and from Northern Silicon Valley where I'm also celebrating seven
years. I'm John C. Dvorak. Vaughn Buzzkill. Hey
yay, we live. Oh, wait a minute. Hold on a sec. What's this? Tape
now? Hold on. Oh, yeah, here's the tape and oh, wait, Miss
Mickey just walked through. What's this darlin? Oh, thank
you. John, she just brought in seven cupcakes with candles. I
have to make a wish. Yay. Thank you, darling. And happy seven as
well. All even later. Thank you, darling. Ah, take a picture.
That's great. Congratulations. You're
on my wish was that we do another seven years
that neither of us dies. That's the only thing I can definitely
the only thing I'm all in on that one. It's the only thing I
don't have under control. You wake up and then you read the
jack Bruce died. Was he 71?
Yeah. 71. That
sucks that a hard life compared to us. But that's a gyp man.
That's a gyp.
He wasn't performing anymore.
But doesn't matter. 71 How do you know he had a hard life?
Clapton still alive, Jack Bruce. Yeah, but it's ginger. Ginger
Baker still alive, isn't he?
Yeah, he's he's still leading the hard life. Yeah.
The there. Let me ask you a question. I had this horrible
thought.
And I saw this band when they first hit the USA. Oh, really?
Yeah, the Fillmore. And I remember this one because it was
we did courses where they had chairs. It has these folding
chairs at some of these performances. They weren't dance
bands with me this, there's like three, there's only like three
or four rows of them. And I was in one of them. And I remember
at the beginning of the concert, they played and then they
kicked. Two other bands came out and they played again, there was
two sets. And then I noticed that the folding chair I was
sitting in was three feet further back. These guys were
out
there last night, as I was sitting in my, in my duster,
smoking my pipe and drinking my scotch, as I often do on a
Saturday night before reading my medical journals. I thought man,
I am so so happy we do this show together. I can't imagine doing
any show like this. Why would they wouldn't be like this. It
was by myself. But I was just thinking, who was who was
writing the official version of the history of our time. Because
there seems to be the version that is on the mainstream media.
And then there's what we know. And I slightly different. Yes.
And if I didn't have you to bounce stuff off of, I'm pretty
sure I would have Yeah, I'd have to commit myself.
It was still a possibility.
It's so radically different often, you know, things are just
so proud.
Yeah, well, I find it disturbing to be honest about it.
Yeah. But perhaps all the history and perhaps has always
been this way.
I'm guessing it probably was like Henry Ford said history is
bunk. I didn't know he said that. Yes, he did. He said that
he was in fact I recorded in the history class as a as a point of
ridicule, then to indicate that four was an idiot. Okay. And but
now over time, yeah, well, it is actually makes more sense. Yeah,
maybe it was a visionary.
So the Euro land entered daylight savings time already.
Oh, it is now of course 13 minutes past 4pm UTC. Universal
Time coordinated. And I believe the United States of Gitmo
nation changes on November 2. So that next week, next Sunday,
we see it's of no mistake, you go forward in our fall forward
and spring back. Exactly
right. Yeah, you do that. I'll see you on the show Sunday.
Yeah. I'm and Russia, of course no longer changes.
There's no reason for anybody to change course
not a big deal unless it's just to confuse the slaves and throw
them off balance, which is exactly what happens. Anyway,
yeah, why can't it just be UTC you I was reading up on UTC last
night, as one does on a Saturday. And this, you know,
this coordinated universal time, if you look at the Wikipedia
entry, which seems to be fairly complete, adequate, it really
you get an A real understanding of the leap seconds and why
these were introduced and why. And, you know, this was, I think
it's 72 is when the leap seconds were introduced to counter the
gradual slowing of the spirit of the rotation of the Earth. But I
think there's like 19 of them, that are added every 10 years.
But at any rate, and the time is personal time, which is a
concept when you think about it
just doesn't make sense to me that you'd have to, you know,
check. Yeah, it should be just relative it can we
just have if we're all use UTC, which is what aviation does, it
would be fine.
Yeah. What time is it now?
It's 4:15pm UTC.
Okay, so we do the show that we'd get up, but to 2pm?
Yes, I got it earlier. I get it. Well, I
would like to, I'm Alexa, I get up at seven. So I gotta be
getting up at 2pm UTC. And I'd be going to bed or whatever, you
know, to 1012 hours later. I get complicated.
Are there UTC watches available? A bit just set it? No, I mean,
just purely YouTube. There's a point. Oh, my God. For a few
months. We just we have to remember that this one he has
invalid. Shit. Sorry about that. That was one of the worst things
I've ever said. I think yeah, just close it quietly Oh, boy.
Okay, that was dumb.
That's the guys arguing over whether we should do it six or
half a dozen. seven more years
of this, ladies and gentlemen. seven more years. Oh, man.
Since you're gonna get on that I do have a well now I'll do it
later. I want to talk a little bit about the Washington State
shootings because they've been so
do we have a name for the Washington State shootings? I
mean, can we just call them the Seattle school shooting or do we
have a we have nothing.
Washington State shooting seems to be what keeps coming up. I
think it's good. It's a dud. I know they tried to push this
bench. There's always shootings. I mean, there's shootings in
schools all the time. Yeah, I mean, there's a number of them
every year but they always find one to make a big deal out of so
you can push the gun thing I've noticed has been a lot of gun
and violent. I mean, just besides the shootings and the
cop that was shot and play play the violent teasers on, KTLA
just the way the news opens every day in Los Angeles.
A SWAT team store as a high end boutique in San Clemente finds a
man and a woman dead inside. Plus a deck and the rest two men
accused of firing a stray bullet that killed a nine year old girl
in Anaheim. And an LAPD officer is under investigation after a
man claims he was beaten and kicked in the head.
This is by the way great music bed. Did you hear how that thing
opened?
Yeah with gunshots and
it has this whole swell this cool bomb bomb bomb and they
don't want to hear that one again. Where is it? Here it is.
I was good. That's just a dumb Dakka Dakka Dakka Dakka file
man. That's good. Yeah, we should have one of those.
That's where we're headed.
That's a good one. Bom Bom lb like it? Yeah. Nice. Yeah,
although we never hear about the I'm sure Chicago local news has
it but we had Chicago is someone's killed every single
day.
Pretty much. Yeah. Sometime in groups. Yes. I know that. I
don't know. I think the Obamas just are it was because of Rahm
Emanuel they done a blackout on playing up to Chicago violence
and
possible well, it is the they do have the strictest gun laws in
the country. Supposedly.
I also think they they want to bring it to Middle America to
get the women to vote Democrat. So Washington State's perfect.
Let me just play three clips for the Washington State thing get
it out of the way for sure. Washington's shooting one is the
intro to the story.
And another shooting today outside of Seattle investigators
say this one happened in Washington State sorry.
He says another so we get in the mind of the listeners. Many of
these yes of
course High School and has left two people dead including the
shooter witnessed as a freshman Jalen Freiburg walked into a
crowded cafeteria at Marysville pilled Chuck High School and
open fire he ended up shooting five people killing one. I
jumped under the table as fast as I could. And when it stopped,
I looked back up. And I saw he was trying to reload his gun.
And when that happened, I just ran the opposite direction and I
was out of there as fast as I could. That irritates
me the most about this story is that there's this pictures
everywhere of him and his football jersey. Number 33.
Yeah, very annoying to give away, but very annoying to like
a part two, okay.
Three of the injured students were taken to a nearby hospital
where they immediately went into surgery, a fourth was
transferred to Seattle for treatment. Fryeburg was later
found dead of a self inflicted gunshot wound. Freiburg was
considered to be a well liked student and was even recently
elected freshman homecoming king. Police are still trying to
figure out a motive behind today's shooting.
Well, did you get the motive?
His girl either his girlfriend broke up with him or some girl
wouldn't did
some simple like that it was immediately reported properly on
Russia today. So let's play that clip Russian today in Washington
State shootings. This was the explanation which I think took
the air out of the whole thing. Investigators are
looking into a school shooting in the town of Marysville in
Washington State say it's still not clear whether the gunman
killed himself or accidentally or on purpose a high school
student Jalen Freiburg shot and killed a girl and wounded four
other classmates. Some reports suggest are two of the victims
were cousins who were linked in a love triangle. I want to hear
your link. What a love triangle. Yes. Ah. Whoa, love triangle
with his cousins. Yes, six.
So a lot of stuff going on.
boton love Well, this is interesting. I received an email
from one of our Of course our global intelligence network.
John Adam, this was my high school. I'm 35 now but I
remember what it was like there. It is near the Tulalip
reservations that I pronounced it or to the lip to the lip to
LA to LA to LARP. There are a lot of Indians that went to the
school and the other schools where I grew up in Marysville.
The fry Berg's were exceptional eight holes. I was a white kid
and the Indian family stuck together so you didn't mess with
them unless you get a beat down. They messed with everyone. When
I heard it was a Freiburg that did it all suspicion about a
possible BS story disappeared. Just little inside info for you.
Oh, this is interesting. Yeah, that I think that gives it
another perspective
that well there's all family well, that means bags, your
family would douche bag shooting each other hapless 33 is a
problem also the the story about who took the gun away from him
attacked him grabbed the gun. When then somehow he goes and
shoots himself. This never made any sense to me. But it was a
teacher. It was a janitor. It was various. I
have another piece of data for you. I want to hear
deconstruction, listen to this piece from CNN,
getting handed information. So bear with me as I just read this
cold, low local law enforcement under the direction of the
Marysville Police Department. We'll be holding SWAT training.
This was actually yesterday. This was yesterday they held
SWAT training happened that they held SWAT training yesterday in
the in the area around the school district. So I take a
look at this as we're watching people running
just gives you chills seeing students running one after
another after another. Always irritating.
Yes, it's always irritating that 33 is also now your friend or
friend, our buddy in the intelligence network that used
to go to the school and knew about this family being a bunch
of eight holes. That doesn't mean that this is actually
legitimate. It's possible that they they are a holes and
somebody finally killed one or two of them. Are the cousins. It
sounds like they all were were
all we're related sounds Yeah, this sounds like a family feud.
Yeah, a family feud that took it's the it was some guys shot.
And of course, these guys got shipped off to different
hospitals immediately. But the 33 is this was I think, I think
the media, I think this is going to be dropped. I just don't
think this is going to kind of lay eggs that it needs that
doesn't have the right kind of nutty shooter shooting shooting.
Can
we just call it that it was a shitty shooting? No, it wasn't
very good. Not a good one. It was a complete dud handle
stories. And you know, they had this initiative 594 out in
Washington State. Yeah. Which you would presume might have
something to do with it. Maybe and 594 This is the background
check on transfer law and the way this
is gonna have done I can pass this thing I got with the
President. The older they have exceptions the laws are written
kind of so you could do this but I can't even hand you a gun to
shoot at the rain. Exactly. This is getting a background check on
you,
Matt from Washington State. broden said if it passes
initiative five nine foreign Washington State would require
background checks for any transfer of a gun for example,
if it passes and I want to let my brother hold a new shotgun of
mine while we're duck hunting together, I would have to pay to
get a background check on him first. I have to background
check my brother the person I used to take baths with. I know
him better than any background check would anyways there is no
such thing as anyways, can we just point this out?
We only shade the market and well of course I hope he's
mocking it
no context and you
know we have a lot of people that write in and say anywho
yeah,
anyways, anyways support for the initiative is dropping as the
NRA has started aggressively advertising against it and then
this happens today. Yeah, so
this wouldn't this they didn't even get into the when they
reported on they didn't even get into the how we got the gun and
all the rest of it. They did. I think it was just a failed
attempt at getting a story with legs going Yeah. And that's
ended 33 was a giveaway for us I believe.
I have to say compared to what everything we saw and heard from
Sandy Hook. This was much more realistic I saw helicopter
trauma helicopters flying. I saw you know what looked like bodies
with covered being put in by saw wound it looked a little better
than the Sandy Hook stuff. You only saw something
kid Sandy Hook we had to see absolutely not there
was people walking around that made me feel a little better
about it.
Damn, Oh, damn. No, actually, if people want to go look at that.
There's some very good analysis of Sandy Hook online. Oh, yeah.
by people who are there, I think obsessed. Yeah, to the point
where they have little details that they uncovered here and
there. It's close to being embarrassing. It's so so
detailed. Yeah. Ah, that's the best they can do. Now.
I don't have anything else. But that's that's the best I have
to. Yeah,
I think that's it.
I think the Friedberg in combination with your cousin
clip, kissing cousins and the Freiburg being a bunch of a
holes. That would pretty much make it. No, that makes sense.
But some family feud. You know, barking cousins out there. Make
sense? It happens. It doesn't just happen in Texas. Let's
put it that way. And it doesn't need to happen in this data
school over this.
Well, of course course.
I guess Pac and school just football the kid. I'm sorry.
He's packing. He's, he's packing heat.
We used to go to I remember, you've packed heat when you were
in high school? No, I didn't go to high school in the US. But in
grade school in Maryland. It was not uncommon. You can bring your
BB gun to school. You could put it in your locker, you could
bring your 22 if you're going you know, range shooting later
on.
You have a gun club in the school that used to have Gun
Club. I'm
pretty sure they did. I'm pretty sure they did. I was too young
but I'm pretty sure yeah. It was part of part of culture was very
normal back in the day. Did you see? Mandate Canada? Cool boy.
I'm glad that they are now really a part of North America.
The way this caliphate is being picked up in the terror. They
are almost as good as we are except when they do the
militaristic stuff at sports games. It's a little cooler
because they do it in English and French
sounds like it's a little longer
it's longer but it sounds a little more international and of
course they got guys in the uniforms that are cool killed by
like killed. Not think it's too badass. Look, here's the opening
bars boss asked is what you said boss asked Yes. Boss as a boss
as look. That's right. This past weekend
to the people of all Canadians. Tonight we have an opportunity
to stand united as one how good voice how good is this voice as
great as what they're saying they've shown that they can we
ask them to please welcome honored guests. This as well.
And I'm Korea John C Dvorak
from purple Cyrillus Hamilton based regimen, the Argyll and
Sutherland Highlanders. Master Corporal Michael ash. Samuel
Shepard. Wow. Listen to this. Just listening. Yeah.
Did you see this? This is the NHL hockey game. This is a big
stadium, which I guess is based on Leftenant Colonel Ken Brooke.
Hey, Becca, I just want to get it up to the Combine flag party
of Canadian Forces members along
with John Sobia. Representing on the list first responders who
bravely rushed to the scene and who are sitting safe every
single day.
Wow, this is good. Very good candidate Navia. Please join us
in a moment of silence to honor and remember the victims warrant
officer killed and verbal Nathan Cirillo was slain at the War
Memorial in Ottawa and all those affected by these tragedies. It
was
in French, and then that they do a moment of silence, which was
long, it must have been 3040 seconds. It was really
impressive.
Wow, yeah. World War Two. Yeah.
Yeah. And there's lots of discussion on on the radio,
which of course, you you kind of need that, you know, CBC This is
on is this the current show. And they have some pretty decent,
pretty decent radio, I think in in Canada navy.
Until now, the biggest terrorist activity that occurred on or
near this territory, our our country was was Air India, many,
you know, 25 years ago. And it was only planned and started
here. It happened elsewhere. But I think the problem is that, you
know, the lapses in security come about for a number of
reasons. Somewhere, Obama, bin Laden is laughing Come on. Did
you hear it?
You know, these guys, by the way, do you hear what he said?
The sound was loud.
No, you missed it. Okay. Listen closely, is laughing. Listen,
listen more carefully. The host of the show didn't no one on the
show mentioned that,
you know, the lapses in security come about for a number of
reasons. It's somewhere Obama Bin Laden, his love bombing.
No one says that word of Obama and Obama bin Laden. But that
also means he's not dead.
He is a laughing in his grave Diddy.
I read a couple of reports that there's some document that's
been uncovered that proved that they didn't throw them
overboard, that they they actually brought the body back.
And they brought into some naval base. And I don't know what they
did with him. But apparently, he's not dead.
Well, that would, that would, it wouldn't surprise me
made notes. I don't know what they want to do with the Well,
I mean, we've had the thesis on and off that he was always as
always an operative and he was being extracted because nails,
the Navy SEAL team. That particular one was an extraction
action team wasn't a assassination team.
Right. And although they of course, took a bad helicopter
flight a little bit later, and we can't really talk to them
anymore.
Which is another, you know, it's the whole thing is awfully
fishy, that Peter King,
who we already think is an enormous douchebag. And he's a
Republican, as you know. Yes. And he's on the big Intelligence
Committee. He's, he's one of the guys who leads the show runs the
show on the security and intelligence of our nation. Now,
the thing you wouldn't want her to him to do is to ever say
things that would make you worried because he has inside
information? Right, and if he starts we assume so yeah. If he
starts getting worried then that could scare people.
Don't you think? Well, I think maybe, but I mean, sometimes I I
believe these people are being used by the intelligence
community. in various ways, I don't think necessarily they're
getting the straight scoop.
Okay. Well, he was on Monday, but I don't know. It's fine. It
looks how mad Feinstein got when she found out they were lying to
her.
Yeah. Yeah. Oh, she was pissed. Oh, man, was she pissed? And
then she just keeps on doing her own thing and her head is gone.
But here's Peter King. I think it was on CNN. But you know, I
mean, there are a lot of people don't know it's Greta Van
Susteren. So it'd be Fox. Sorry. Here we go.
But, you know, I mean, there are a lot of people that are at risk
with this. I don't want to scare anybody. Nobody should feel
safe.
I don't want to scare anybody. Nobody should know. Now listen
to the rest of what he says. It is unbelievable
terrorism, particularly evil group and ISIS, and they want to
attack as many people as they can They focus on the military
and the police and monuments because that will get more
attention. But they will kill anyone they can. If they can
attack a shopping center, they can attack a subway train, they
can attack an airport, they will do it. They right now, for the
sake of symbolism, they're talking about the military. But
now we should be guarding everything we possibly can. And
we should be aggressive. We should be on offense, we should
not be politically correct. And the only way we can really stop
discredit is to go into the Muslim communities and find out
who's good, who's bad get any kind of tips, informants,
whatever we ask. The NYPD was doing for years, and solos
people in the New York Times of liberal ideologues and the
associated press and Civil Liberties Union have tried to
stop that we have to have that type of effective strong pre
emptive intelligence gathering by the police
the guy is high isn't really the key it can't be any other way.
So did he just say let's go in and shake down some Muslims
Yeah, that's what he said and we and we can't listen to pinkos
like Archie Bunker all of a sudden his real
lives if money was a border length
not quite not quite but it's said borderline it's crazy this
guy is off his rocker you can't be saying these things
Yeah, he's the is off his rocker it's time
to we got to stop being politically incorrect. If screw
those pink goes over there The New York Times and AP well you
commies you fucking commies. We gotta go check them Muslims. Oh,
man. What is the point becoming sort of
politically correct and came up in the local news, which I have
to it all stemmed. I was just watching that getting clips and
listening to it and I got this story. And as soon as I got the
story had to go get the clip. And this is the Chinese racism.
In Oakland clippers actually took place in San Francisco.
A rally has been scheduled against promotion of racism and
hatred against the Chinese community. It will be today at
noon in Oakland Chinatown in front of the Pacific Renaissance
Plaza on Ninth Street. Organizers say the motivation
behind this event is the recent YouTube video of the female tour
guide bashing the Chinese community. A woman has since
apologized for her actions.
chanters needs him. Anyway. So what is this sounds like a bunch
of bullcrap. So there's this woman on a gray line tour one of
those double decker she's on the top. Yeah. And with a microphone
and she's giving a tour of Chinatown, San Francisco. Oh,
this is her last day at work. Okay. I gotcha. So she decides
to go off on the Chinese on Chinatown. Mostly not the
Chinese so much, right? And this and they've kind of re edit this
thing a little bit, but everything's here. And this is
the F Chinatown clip and that people who don't like to you
hear a couple of the What the f
word are you are you disclaiming something.
I'm just saying there's gonna be a lot of it in this clip.
Okay, but I want you guys to know your fucking ginseng. Buck
your little hair salons where nobody in there knows how to
fucking speak English. But this bullshit Buck your gates fuck
your little Bart stop that you're building here. Which is
fucking of traffic for the entire neighborhood walking down
the street every day. I can't even get home at night. Fuck
your preschools and your little preschoolers making all that
noise at six in the morning when I was trying to live here. But
your salons but your little herb garden stuck your seafood
fucking market markets with your turtles and your father. Okay.
Okay, when you come to America, you got to assimilate a little
bit. And here in America we don't eat turtles and frogs.
Okay, but they got it. They got to bring that here to to
America. Okay, there's a limit. Gotta simulate a little bit. If
your laundry hanging out the windows, fuck your three or four
people inside each one of your little SROs fuck your noise bump
your parades. Buck your dragons. This shit. Okay. Standing
ovation, chickens a round of applause
stand back, John. You know you got a shoo in man. Easy, easy.
Nice. That's actually an evergreen is pretty funny. I'm
putting that in the in the Evergreen folder. That was good.
Yeah, it was. Where did you get that from?
A real rant. Where did you dug it up? It was on it was on
YouTube. They kept it
oh, that's hilarious.
There's two or three versions of it. There's some little somebody
commenting on it. You know, maybe this is terrible. Anyways,
obviously black women probably living in Chinatown. I would
think they have a lot of prejudice. Isn't it? Oh, she
was black? Yes, Jude funny, Kentucky a little preschoolers.
Okay, I have a couple of the things to get out of the way
regarding the caliphate. By the way, when are we ever going to
see what is it? What is the town? Aleppo? No Urbani Urbani
what is it? Oh the one that they're pounding Yeah, it was
supposed to fall within hours. But I guess because Turkey just
isn't taking the bait and isn't jumping into the fight and isn't
going to allow themselves to be misused by NATO that just keeps
on going. This was supposed to be over an hour is under siege.
You know, no one cares about this town. It's a lot in the
news a lot for a town that just doesn't seem to want to go away.
There's a I only have one clip on ISIS and it's a Turkish one I
picked off RT was like, I can play play this before or after
yours, but it might be better before because it's kind of a
backgrounder. But you have to see the setting. This is an RT
reporter. That is at this at the, at the border. Border. He's
at the border
with a bunch of people and they have lawn chairs and coolers.
Yes, yes. I know. It's crazy. Yeah.
And he says he and then he has his report goes on he in when he
does the voiceover. He says later, when he puts the back as
he says I was told after I went there that it was very
dangerous. All kinds of horrible things. Oh, no. Like if it was
like a football tailgate party. At the border. There was no, he
was just it was it was so casual is ludicrous
Islamic State's power. It's mercilessness nuclear desire to
shed Kurdish blood. There appear to be those who see it as a
lesser evil.
It's very clear from Turkey's policies in the last several
weeks and kabbani that Turkey does not consider ISIS to be a
strategic threat to itself, but it does consider the Kurdish
liberation movement in the form of the YPG and PKK. As a
strategic threat to itself.
Branding Kurdish fighters as terrorists Ankara justified its
resistance to international plans to help defend combining
those, it wouldn't be wrong for the United States with whom were
friends and allies in NATO, to expect us to say yes to
supplying arms to Kurdish terrorist organizations.
Let's anchor his latest remarks suggest it is willing to help
contain the Islamic State, perhaps in a bit defend off
accusations that it is turning a blind eye to the jihadists and
even conniving with them. We all know the bias has
used the facilities and the logistic facilities that they
have been receiving, or at least afforded by the Turkish side.
This gave them a great advantage and they're fighting in Syria in
general and Kobani was no exception. So we decided
to go to a border crossing and see for ourselves where its
border crossing with Syria. The difference here is that manning
the checkpoints aren't Kurdish fighters. But the Islamic States
jihadist in fact, everything you can see behind that fence is
controlled by the Islamic State. It is very calm here. There are
no troops, no armored personnel carriers, no tanks, and there's
a sort of feeling that Turkey is more comfortable with the
Islamic State and its borders, rather than any incarnation of a
Kurdish state.
Nice NATO friends there. Yeah, gasoline in Austin. $2.77 a
gallon.
We're getting to the $2 point to go to the $3 break to 99. Right.
It's I seen as drawn 310. And now 330 for premium.
It's pretty interesting how that works. Oh, yes.
Considering that if they want it they can scare the you know,
they scare the public when they hit will usually when there's an
event in the Middle East, a gas prices go up but seems to be
going down.
Very interesting. One of the guys we promised to keep her eye
on whenever he shows up, he always has information that is
worth listening to Wesley Clark, retired General Wesley Clark
Clark. And he showed up on the Tavis Smiley show, which that's
PBS right. That's Public Television. I was smiling. I
like to have the smile. I'd like watching his show.
I didn't like him at first because I couldn't deal with the
his his cadence.
It is annoying, because it's kind of like a radio guy on TV.
But a radio guy on TV because yeah, black radio hosts have
different cadence than white radio host Sorry. Yeah. Geez.
Sorry.
It's a cadence that is annoying. Yeah,
it doesn't work when you're looking at someone. It's like,
Could you move on with it? Yeah. Now the good general has a book
out called Don't wait for the next war. And it was I thought
it was a very interesting appearance. And he has a new
list. We know we have the West Clarke seven, which is the I
won't play it. But as the list of countries that been 2001 Was
it? Was it right after the World Trade Center attack? Or was it
would be when he was running for president?
Right. I think he may be thinking about running again,
let's listen to what he's
just not just say acceptable to the public. Well,
or the part he
let me tell you something, the I think he looks very
presidential. But without looking like a douchebag. He
didn't look like an ex retired general douchebag didn't really
act like it. He had a very kind demeanor interacted well with
smiley, and he has a new top list, the top five list that I'd
like us to listen to.
Well, I want to mention a couple of one of the lowest point is
that Smiley is not an Obama fan, correct.
He he went on the bus tour with Cornell, West,
Cornell West, the two of them went around bitching and moaning
about about the policies. And of course, it did fell on deaf
ears. So that didn't work out for him. But he's you can just
tell he's so he's got an agenda.
So again, I'm not suggesting that you're declaring that
there's going to be another war. I guess what I'm getting at is
whether or not we should accept the fact maybe I should oppose
it this way. That war is a way of life these days, given the
world that we live in, and the terrorism that we're up against?
Is that a conclusion that we can, it's not something I want
to acknowledge to myself, but is that something that we need to
come to terms, we've got five long term challenges, and one of
them is terrorism, cybersecurity, stability, the
financial system, the ascent of China, and climate change, we
got to work against all five of those on a continuing basis.
Okay.
So there's your new five, which I think is astute and proper
notice China being in there? Well, yeah. As one of the the
actual things to look out for. Now. We're going to go from Oh,
yes. Here we go. This is West Clarke explaining Turkey, Syria,
Russia, Iran, the relationship between all of them, and he does
it in under a minute.
Here's the trick. We're focused right now on Iraq. We haven't
yet come to Syria, and serious, difficult. Why? Well, for a
couple of reasons. Turkey's a NATO member. If Turkey gets
attacked, we have to help defend turkey. Russia is helping Bosch,
Russia, the President said he doesn't like Bashar Assad
doesn't think he's legitimate. Okay, but when you go against
him, and you really put the power in there against him? What
if Russia says, No, we're supporting him? Are we going to
take out Russian anti aircraft systems? What if they got
Russian technicians in there? What if the Russians reinforce
it? So you have to be prepared to do that? And if you involve
Turkey in it, then what if Turkey, you know, is is bordered
by Iran? Iran has an ally of Syria, what if they're wrong and
says to Turkey, since you're trying to mess with Syria, we're
going to cause trouble for you inside Turkey with the PKK PKK
guerrillas. So you could have a lot of complicating factors in
there.
It's almost like the the Friedberg cousins, isn't
it? Yeah. Love Triangle.
I think it's pretty good. Here's his pitch. Here's where I think
he's, he's detailing his top five though he forgets climate
change. This, I think is his presidential pitch
may be that we have to use military forces against
terrorists, like we're doing now against ISIS may have to do more
against ISIS. But that's just one of the things we have to get
a grip on cybersecurity in this country. Yeah, and by the way,
you know, the stock market's been acting kind of crazy
lately. And it reminds us that the financial crisis, even
though it happened in 2008, we never really quite recovered
from it. And we're not really sure how stable the financial
system is. But we know this, we know the Federal Reserve has a
lot more debt. And that means a lot less dry powder, to be able
to handle the next problem. And then there's China every year
trying to get bigger armed forces get better. And they've
drawn a nine dash line in the South China Sea that takes up
ocean that belongs to other countries, it almost touches the
border of these other countries. They're saying what happened to
our law of the sea, you know, we're supposed to have the
seabed 200 miles offshore and China has taken it and there's a
lot of pushing and shoving going on out there. These are all
problems that we have to work with. But most of these problems
cannot just be resolved by the military now.
I think that some some clear talking there from the general,
but
you may I mean, it's possible that he would take a run at it
just to see if he catches Well, barely. I think everyone sees
Hillary as weak and and concluded that she can be taken
out she was taken out once already by all I'm a who's just
an amateur?
Yep. Well bear with me because here and now we're gonna wind
this up. And he needs to win. If you want to win the election in
America, there's one good
job is to be angling for Vice President with the underwater
and possible that'd be a good cause
if you want but if you want to run for anything certainly at
the national level in America, you have to have the Jewish
vote. This is no two ways about it. You got to go to AIPAC. You
got to do your thing. You shuffle your song and dance
President did it. Do you remember the convention? What
was that thing? Where there was like? Oh, yes. So yeah, yeah,
the Jerusalem is the capital. It was like the quick shuffle back
and forth, and they restated stuff. And just it's it's kind
of disgusting, how that all happens. But there you go.
I want to ask you how serious you were talking about ISIS for
the last couple of minutes here? How serious and how connected or
disconnected? Do you see the challenges for lack of better
word that Ukraine that are being presented inside of Ukraine?
Well, it's very serious. And I'll tell you why. Because for
the United States, to be a global leader, we have to have a
very tight relationship with Europe. And we've held that
relationship since the 19. Since 1949, when we establish the
North Atlantic Treaty Organization, NATO. It NATO's
the bond is a security bond. Ukraine is not a member of NATO,
but Ukraine's neighbors are members of NATO. And when they
see Putin, seizing the Crimea, saying he wants to come in to
protect Russian people that are in there, and using military
force and sneaking in these spreads, knots, snipers, and
other things to take those buildings and he created all
this. east Europeans, they had they've been around the block a
couple of times, they've seen this movie before. They know.
And they go back, you know, in history, and they say, Well,
this is kind of sounds a lot like, like Hitler. This where he
ever got started. Yeah, started by very cautious. He was very
circumspect, built up the army occupied the Rhineland, then he
wanted to protect the rights of German speaking people in
Czechoslovakia, and Britain and France, let him have it. And the
next thing, his appetite got bigger. So people are worried
about what that means for the rest of Europe. Putin has been
threatening. He's been threatening the Baltic states.
He's even sort of casually mentioned nuclear weapons. Well,
that's a total no go to those who think, to those who think
they just heard you, if ever so suddenly, compare Putin to
Hitler. How do you respond to that while you're sitting here?
Well, we don't know what Putin might become, you know, that's a
straw button. Let's not find out. We don't know what he told
him out. We don't know if he is going to move into Estonia or
try to take Latvia next. But he's set the process in motion
where he could. And they're both members of NATO. And if you
moved against them, that would be like a declaration of war
against NATO, which involves the United States and we'd be at
war. Now,
this illogical jump. I am taking Crimea, which is their base. And
Jen, traditionally a part of Russia traditionally a part of
Russia. They were always Russia. Yeah, dented take. And they're
their main base for the boat for the Black Sea, the Baltic area.
Yep. And for them to to get to the Mediterranean, to make that
leap to taking Latvia.
Well, here's what is interesting, because this is
still relating to Syria. And as I was listening to this,
watching this interview, I'm pulling out clips and I'm
surfing around. You know that we have the Holocaust Museum in
Washington, DC, big, big blue. It's a big thing that why the
Holocaust Museum? Do you know that they have an exhibit right
now at the Holocaust Museum, which is showing images of
Syrian killings and equating it to the Holocaust of World War
Two. I found this very interesting.
If I find it offensive, well, particularly using the Holocaust
as a political football. Yes,
sir. And let me let me tell you how deep this went, or this goes
actually so you know, right now we have closed door we have a an
insider who has proof of these atrocities. We have hearings
going on right now, which are closed door hearings. Then the
witness's name is Caesar, codename Caesar. And he has
pictures of these atrocities. He is testifying with a blue hooded
rain jacket on with glasses to keep him anonymous when he goes
in and out of the building. It's it's very unfortunate In the
pictures that he has evidence he in order to smuggle them out of
the country, he had to compress them so much. I'm not kidding,
John. He had to compress them so much that the x EXIF data was
lost so we don't have GPS coordinates and timestamps on
the photos. I hate it when that happens. Then I'm now looking at
this Holocaust Museum is this malarkey? Yeah, this is what's
going on and but listen to what's happening.
What the compression story is bullshit.
Bullshit, of course. Look at the Holocaust Museum. And please
take a look at the Board of Trustees. And the council. I'll
save you some time. It's the U S. H. M m.org. Uniform Sierra
Hotel. Mike mike.org. On the board here we have G. Haley, we
Aly weasel Of course you'd expect him to be on he is the
the, the Uber Jew of the of the Holocaust when he's on it's if
you're solid, but Michael Chertoff. This is kind of
interesting that he's on the board there. And there's a
couple other ex military guys who are a shirt off of a Jewish
I don't know. I don't know might be. I don't know,
it'd be. What's he doing on that board? It sounds like a conflict
of some sort.
And both Chertoff and weasel are writing op eds big articles
about Syria being exactly like
the Holocaust, which is key. We're just not giving up on this
Syria thing. We're going at it any way we can. And I find it
what is there? That's so important.
Well, it is bought, of course, Israel. Let's start with that.
Israel's right around there. That could be pretty important.
You know, this
isn't this is not new. This is not new. No. And the leadership
there is not new. And we had him be hanging around with all those
celebrities. Well, what is
the prob what is the province new that changed? What changed?
Oh, what changed is flat? And this is what I'll say.
Exactly what changed is Russia, we put Russia on the on their on
their on their back foot. Brush has always been the problem with
Syria. And that's exactly what the general just explained. Hey,
do you want to go in? Are you ready to be killing Russian
soldiers who are manning anti aircraft? Because they have a
base their base? Their base? Yes. So that's the problem. But
of course, the area of the Syria by itself is incredibly
strategic. It's a great little
patch always been that way. Yes. This is this is what they were
trying to do in 2003. Yes. But Russia is no slouch. So it's a
it's a twofer. It's so obvious. It comes into play becomes
clearer every single day. And I think the general just kind of
said it. Here's the problem. So what do we do? Oh, thank
goodness. Ha. Thank goodness. We have another couple of great
Putin stories. The watch for this week. I've been waiting for
it. Here it is. Finally we have a elections by the way today in
Ukraine. headline from The Daily Beast Ukraine, rebels love
Russia, hate gays threatened executions. Finally, how broad
only broadly in the breakaway regions actly. This playbook
that we've outlined exactly. In the breakaway region that calls
itself the Luhansk. People's Republican will used to be a
Ukrainian government administration building, the
place where rebels get together to exchange the most radical
ideas in the smoking room, and the dense atmosphere of tobacco
and conspiracy. One hot topic has been the death penalty. The
council reinstated capital punishment earlier this year.
But even such basic questions is what sort of political power
should be established have not been resolved? Should Losang aim
to be a Western democracy a communist Republic a monarchy
for failing to decide such key questions the council opted for
a law everyone in the smoking room seem to agree on punishment
of homosexuals. They voted to imprison people convicted of
being gay for two years and six months and they voted the death
penalty no question about that for the rape of a minor whether
of the same or opposite sex and it goes on and on. So the these
the opposition in Ukraine the rebels love Putin hate gays want
to kill them. Perfect. So this is right on script right on
message right on script now. This will be the main the big
main message for the people. George Soros is. He wrote a an
op ed in See what this is. But it was I'm sure it was Wall
Street Journal or New York Times or one of these. Then he's he's
saying Time to wake up. But you know, the we're out of time. We
have to, he said $20 billion is needed from the IMF in the
Russian war effort, existential threat from Russia. The thing
that I have not been able to find anywhere in news reporting,
is the speech President Putin made two days ago at the Valdai
conference, that I had never heard of it. If you ever heard
of the Valdai conference, the Valdai conference, the homeless
segment, I have it here. The AE L D, ay ay. I thought I had
evolved. Yes, the Valdai international Discussion Club,
international framework for the leading experts from around the
world to debate on Russia and its role in the world. And this
was pretty cool. They had, you know, the banners and everything
in the background of this, this event, the New World Order, and
what I think the subtext was, what is it as it turned out what
it was supposed to be or something like that. And they
have a whole bunch of from around the world from, from
America, from China, from Russia, obviously, this is it's
kind of like, I guess would be hold the equivalent be. No
different really, from Obama speaking at at some NATO
conference, I guess, but not the same stature, not the same size.
But Putin speaking. Now, the problem with Putin speaking is
he speaking Russian. So it's really is not good for
television is not good for sound bites. And it's really not even
appropriate for audio sound bites for our show, but I felt I
had to put a few, there is a translated version of his
speech. And I have a couple quotes from his speech. And then
one little quick q&a from an interesting person. And only,
this is one of the only places I guess where we can get down to
it, at least expose some of what he is actually saying, instead
of what other people are telling you. His thoughts are what he is
thinking. Fair enough. Yeah, go. Okay. So this is Putin. Now, of
course, this is the transcript that I have linked in the show
notes is more detailed is an after the fact transcript, I
encourage you to read it. Actually, it looks like we wrote
it, I have to, if you read through this thing's like holy
crap. This is everything. This is the no agenda show, read by
the Russian Russian president. It's really quite astounding,
here he is. And it's all about America and how America operates
at bit. Luckily, he does have some ideas at the very end, here
we go.
ways of influencing those defined, well known and have
been tried and tested so many times, there is immediate
pressure, there is interference in the domestic affairs and
attempts at attributing legitimacy to attempts to meddle
in the Interior Affairs. In recent years, we've had evidence
that certain national leaders had been blackmailed. The Big
Brother has been not just spending millions and millions
of dollars on a spying agency surveillance all around the
world, including spying on their closest allies.
So if I heard correctly, President Putin just said, not
only does the United States metal and everybody else's
affairs, but they blackmail leaders using their big NSA spy
apparatus,
which of course, we've always surmised. Yes.
Let's all ask ourselves, how comfortable and safe do we feel
living in a world like that? How, just and how irrational is
it? What would you say we have no reasons to be concerned with
and ask these are uncomfortable questions. Maybe the United
States is exclusive in pursuing its leadership. And maybe that
is a good thing. Maybe them interfering in everyone's
relations all over the world, is something that brings us peace,
stability, prosperity and democracy.
Clearly, he's being facetious, but I like that.
And maybe we all should simply, you know, let them do it to us.
I dare say this is not true. I've noticed that when you get
caught up in unilateral dictatorship and imposing their
own templates and US has actually led to something that
was very contrary to what they had intended. Instead of
resolving conflicts, we see escalation. Instead of
stability, we see increasing chaos. Instead of democracy. We
see them supporting some very murky activists from open Nazis
to very dangerous Islamic fundamentalists.
I'm sorry, I have to agree, I can't disagree. This is this is
there's a lot of evidence pointing towards that because
those forces are used initially as instruments. But then they
just go out of control. And they're so called masterminds
that get burned in that way. I can't help but wonder how time
and again, they can really continue to repeat their own
mistakes. They used to sponsor Islamic extremist movements to
fight the Soviet Union. They were tried and tested in
Afghanistan and later gave rise to Taliban and al Qaeda.
Pretty much true,
right? Oh, no, it's all true. It's all in the money. And I
think he makes a good point. He kind of indicates that we're a
bunch of Boneheads. Yes, yes, with a lot of money.
Well, speaking of the money, and that was the longest clip, I
have the shorter ones. Now. Speaking of the money
as for financial aid for terrorists, nowadays, it's not
only revenues from drug trafficking, which, by the way,
increased many fold during the US led military presence in
Afghanistan. But we also see various activities nowadays
funded by illegal oil trade and oil trafficking. They deliver
oil themselves, they transport it illegally, and they sell it
illicitly. It's illegal prices. But if there are sellers, then
there are buyers. Someone has been buying that oil. I'm not
kidding that. By virtue of that they effectively finance
terrorists who can one day come to their own countries and start
taking lives there. Yeah,
I was buying that. Oh,
this was that that was interesting. By the way, this
guy would be great on a talk show.
Putin or the translator. I I'm pretty. I know he speaks
English, but he's just you know, he's not just speak
the kind of English that he needs for this sort of,
but I'll bet if you when you said hey, vlog hookers and blow
your buddy, go you
bet he nobody illegal oil. Yeah, the illegal
sales for illegal prices. Now, hmm. Let's talk a bit about the
global strategy of the US.
We see what happens when you mix politics with the economy does
anyone you accept a logic of cooperation with a larger kind
of confrontation, even when it is country to national business
interests, joint economic projects, mutual investments,
bring countries together, and that's an objective fact. They
help us mitigate the existing through an intergovernmental
problems and issues. But nowadays, the global business
community is experiencing unprecedented pressure from
Western governments. What kind of progressivism Can we talk
about when they have this model? The free world is in danger,
democracy is in danger. We need to mobilize to repel the threat.
Well, that is mobilization policy. As they come, it's a
mobilization
policy Exactly. One day, I'm glad we're doing this now.
Because one day it will be unlawful to say the President of
Russia is saying something smart, they will it will be
unpatriotic, it will be wrong. You'll be seen as a red or
Russian lover a brewski gay hair oh, or a cow Hanko.
You're not even really communist anymore. But that's okay. Then
let's look at the mobilization strategy, which of course, Putin
is all all on to draw
our western counterparts used to try to exploit those situation
by engineering, so called we call the origin revolutions. And
by trying to court these extremist movements, but now the
genies out of the bottle. And we see that even those proponents
of this managed chaos concept, they don't know what to do with
the genie anymore. We see growing up discussion and
debates in the Western academic and expert community, it would
be enough to look at the headlines. In the Western media.
The same people are first portrayed as fighters for
democracy and then Islamic radicals. First, the Western
media tell us about people's revolutions, and then they get
described as coos and riots and unrest.
Well, to wind it up with with his little speech, he ends his
speech with a strategy for moving forward and I want
everyone to listen to this. When people say Putin wants to what
do we what are the key talking points? What are the key and of
course, this is only what he's saying doesn't mean that this is
what he's doing. But the key talking points are
hates gays, obviously, expansionist
expansionist backup revisionist wants to go back to
empires to go back to
the good one revision as well. Russia is what else does he want
to do is dogs, hates, hates dogs just wants to fight us. I would
say because he wants to fight a stubborn, he's stubborn,
dear colleagues, Russia has made its choice, that our priorities
are in favor of improving further improving democratic
institutions and developing our economy. Considering the global
trends after day, we want to consolidate our society based on
traditional values and patriotism. We have a peaceful
integration for your agenda. We work from Chris Kerrigan is
actively with our counterparts within the Shanghai Cooperation
Organization, just the BRICS, the Eurasian Economic Union and
others, our fiscal policy level pursues a unification rather
than break break down. So it is also baseless to argue that
Russia is trying to restore some kind of empire and trying to
destroy the sovereignty of its neighboring states. Russia does
not demand some kind of an exclusive role in the world. I
would like to emphasize in that stream, we do respect the
interests of others, but what we would like our interests and our
opinions to be respected. Likewise, it is obvious that the
world is is now entered into a period of deep and profound
transformation. And we all need to be cautious and very
deliberate. In order to avoid some he see in the interest
steps, some of the players in the global relations have
forgotten those rules. In the years following the end of the
Cold War, we need to go to go back to that. Otherwise, some of
the some of their ideas might prove a serious delusion. And
the current trend might prove to be the beginning of destruction
of the global world order. We're talking about some serious hard
work. We've managed, but we weren't managed to develop rules
of conduct Following the Second World War, we managed to agree
in the 1970s in Helsinki over the Helsinki Process. So it is
our task to come to terms in this new stage of development.
Thank you very much.
So there is the pacifist Putin rarely recognized as such,
saying, Hey, we all gotta calm down a little bit.
But here's my thinking along these Baptists, the Russians
used to be a very good, not as good as we are, since we
invented at public relations and propaganda,
although the Russians always get the, the label
or they have the label, yes. But where are the superstars?
There's no question about it. We, we we are we love to even do
it to our own people. We just love doing it. It's one of the
things we'd like to do. Yes, we enjoy it.
We live there ourselves in the luxury of propagandize
propaganda.
And that's why we you know, that's why the show we do is so
interesting to people who are lathered in it, and then they
get confronted with because we deconstruct that, and only
because we can also do that we could do propaganda. Oh, well,
the consulting company should be getting more gigs. We should,
we should be rolling in the dough. We should be rolling in
dough.
But the Russians have seemingly they still have these old
liners, these old Soviet types that are over in here that tried
to propagandize in favor of Russia or against us. And it's
always the same losers is the Workers Party out in New York
City? The answer group, that group is just part of them that
that Workers Party is the big stronghold of this stuff. And
they always push that, oh, capitalism is bad. Yeah, they
just take it wrong. They do everything wrong, they they push
the wrong buttons, the American public is not going to buy into
anybody, investor, just KPFA listeners, the local radio
station, the Pacifica you know, Amy Goodman and the rest of
these people that are just they hate capitalism, and they wish
there was all you know, Kumbaya in a circle, giving each other a
hug and telling a secret. Oh, you know, 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.
Now they're trying to do something with Russia today and
I think they're somewhat successful with some of the some
of their coverage and and they do some counter propagandizing I
have a clip that might be part of this discussion, which is the
RT This is the introduction to to a documentary they did on the
downing of the air.
Have you seen it? I thought it was well done. I Yeah. And
but you can't clip it because it was all subtitled again. A
blunder? Yes. Yes. Good shows like Was there anyone that could
you could clip it? If they would do voice a
call me? You know, I can do voice overs?
Yeah, he's good. Yes, I can No, no, they did also tell so it's
unusable. But this was the beginning of the show. This is
the intro.
The United States did its very best to sort of stirred sort of
the tensions of my dad. It was again, Victoria Nuland and a
number of American officials who made trips to my dad who weren't
distributing cookies there who were providing my dad with
political support. Victoria Nuland should probably
have been fired for the extremely inappropriate remarks
made on an insecure telephone line. Do our ambassador about
about the crisis? I think it was a mistake for her to pass out
cookies to the demonstrators on my DOD. Yep.
Yep. This is, you know, so ineffective.
So for the new listeners to the program. Victoria Nuland used to
be the spokesman for the State Department is now the Assistant
Deputy Deputy Secretary of State. And I think she received
the ambassador title somehow. Real name and Nudelman. Married
to Robert Kagan, brother of Frederick Kagan, Neo cons are
tourists into a rock. Thank you right now.
And most of the Russians have not, I don't know what happened
to their old apparatus that they used to do propaganda with
because when I was a kid, I was in the fight believe this was
the fifth or sixth grade. We had one of the teachers was a
staunch anti communist type, and so is everybody in the country.
And I did a paper that was a listing of the for my grade,
final grade. And I got into it, of finding all the Russian front
groups that were in California, all the communists. And I
remember doing it, and it must have been 100 of them. And they
were all they all had to read legitimate sounds. This is like
the you know, and we just find that the usual suspects, it's
usually some Global Warming scam or some other thing and it's
every there's always the same people involved in there on this
group and that group and this group, this is something the
Russians had perfected in the mid century, last century. And I
don't know what happened to it. I think they just give up when
the Soviet Union fell apart. And Russia says okay, whatever. I
don't know what to do. I think part
of it is the internet. They were caught a little flat footed. The
Internet consists of memes. So ISIS and ISIL is you know, they
speak Arabic, but they cut people's heads off. So you have
some visuals that you can use. The only visuals we have of
Russia is Putin without a shirt on purpose, and doing cool
stuff. But there's no sound bites. And I'm they just need
help. But look at look at RT look at Russia today. We said
this many times. Have you do you know you need sexier babes? I
think they've stepped up their game. It's certainly gotten
better. But you cannot do this. I saw the documentaries about
half an hour by coincidence or not the link to the YouTube
videos in the show notes at a 644 dot no agenda notes.com. If
you could take a look at it. It's well done. I think there's
a lot of merit to it. Of course, we still have not seen the
official data from the black boxes with the Russians keep
asking for immediately. And over and over again. And the Ducha
being complacent. The the Safety Board the Dutch Safety Board
said oh well, you know they gave us some facts. But that's it you
know Shut up don't talk anybody be quiet this we're done here.
Final thing that I have on this and this I think this is and by
the way, thank you Brian, the gay Crusader the guy who finds
the the information about Putin hate and gays who wrote the
white paper who is gay and doesn't believe it you know,
he's fighting against this feeling that it's crazy luck.
Yeah, he says there's more inequality for LGBTQ Qi a P in
the US than there is in Russia and and our friends in Saudi
Arabia it's illegal to be gay and you get beheaded is you know
that Brian put the G in gay so here I am now at this
brother though G and Brian.
He put the G and gay question now from the audience at this
forum from Toby de Gotti GA T I ever hear of this woman? No,
never forget she is former United States Assistant
Secretary of State for intelligence and research from
93 to 970 at the Clinton era
and she's at the event. She's at the event nice
in her role as let me see the NGO I'm sure none Consulting
Group International Law Firm Akin Gump Strauss and Hoyer and
fell
to some group, they probably middlemen between a lot of
American businesses in Russia that need. We're worrying. I
mean, we're screwing ourselves with this. Yes. Because we got
so many American businesses over there. Yes.
And I have a feeling that Toby and Vlad might be, you know,
enjoy a vodka together from time to time in the back room.
Frankly, I do not recognize the country you have described in
your remarks. My questions to you are the following. Who are
they are nee in your speech? Is it President Obama? Is it the
American foreign policy elite? Is that the American people? Or
is what you are describing in the genetic code of the United
States in the post war world? She's, you're saying in effect
that you can't, there
was also some little kerfuffle before that some Chinese guy was
trying to wrestle the mic away from her and she wouldn't give
it up. There was some strange thing that happened, and we only
I don't see it happen. But you see, as a long pause, and you
see Vladimir laughing and I think she wrestled the microwave
from some China guy. It's but yeah, she's nervous. It was a
strange situation he's talking to the man can't work
with the United States at all, or with its close allies. Why
would you expect the American response to be to this speech?
You first of all, I did not say the United States is a threat to
Russia. Like you said, President Obama does consider Russia
threat. But I do not regard the United States as a threat first.
I do believe that the policies of the ruling elite in the
United States, if you excuse me, this cliche, is erroneous. I'm
sure it is some country not only to Russia's interest, it also
undermines confidence for the United States. And as such, it
actually inflict damage on the US itself. It undermines its
confidence as one of the global leaders both in the economy and
in the world of politics. President Obama mentioned the
Islamic State as one other threats. Tell me who actually
initially helped arm the people who were fighting the Assad
governments in Syria, he was the one providing them with a
favorable media climate with a favorable media environment, you
might who facilitated arms sales to those people. Don't you know,
who's actually fighting in Syria? It's mercenaries. Do you
know that mercenaries are people who fight for money, and they
actually fight where money where the pay is higher, you know,
they get certain amounts of money as payments for waging
war, they have arms supplied to them. But once they find out
that in another country, the pay is higher, they will actually
migrate there. Because the they're looking for more pay,
they managed to gain control of some oil deposits in Iraq or in
Syria, they started pumping oil there, do they have buyers who
buy oil from them? Yes, they do. Why aren't sanctions imposed
against those buyers? Doesn't the United States knew who those
people are? Isn't it their own allies who actually buy oil from
terrorists? Do they have the capacity to influence their
allies? Or is it that they don't want to influence them. And as
for American policies, I would love to see people like you
heading the Department of State in the US, because maybe then we
could change the situation. Unless that is possible, I would
request you I would beg you to bring this idea over to the US
presidents or this the state secretary tell them that Russia
does not seek confrontation, as long as you respect our
interest, a lot of the issues between us will be resolved. But
that will have to be actually respect. Not only extensible
proclaimed respect,
edited, of course, for long pauses, et cetera.
Now, I want to mention that we on the show have said the same
thing about the oil. Why is it being bought and sold on the
international market? And when we could step in and just put it
into that?
There are some calls now for bombing pipelines in Syria. But
I don't think that's going to get very far because too many
people benefit from this. Yeah. It's good to hear a different
version. Of course, that's just words. Doesn't mean that, you
know, I'm careful. But man, you know.
I get by the way, I have an answer for a question. What do
you think the Americans America's response to this
speech will be? My answer is who is going to hear this speech?
Exactly. Nobody, nobody, unless they listen to the noise. Genda
show the whole speech.
The whole speech itself is, I mean, you can, I think there's
Brian found an alternate translator, which is a little
easier to listen to, but really just read read the document,
it's well written, I can only believe it's a true translation.
It's really good and you read it, you go, Holy crap, this is
everything we've been saying for years. Which is irksome, because
you know, when when you are saying the same thing as the
enemy. This does not bode well for the future of the show.
them well, I think we could survive. Talking about Putin,
I hope so. Well, yeah. But that would be messed up. That's the
whole beauty of
it. Talking code is like the olden days, in the olden days,
in the in the magazine published business there was it says
everybody's corrupt. And I talked about this endlessly on
the newsletter, and the last newsletter was no exception. And
so you're corrupted by advertisers. So the worst
corruption is in very, I would say focused, small publications
that were, for example, the Hi Fi magazines, you know, all
these magazines that talked about Hi Fi gear, high end ones,
but just a regular ones. Stereo review or whatever, I'd even
maybe that'd be a high end. Computers. We had to we had
magazines. Yeah, that was the only stereo magazines and they
end when you talk to the writers are they ever get interviewed,
they always said they had to talk in code, because they had a
piece of let's say, a Harman Kardon amplifier that they were
reviewing. And they were big advertisers. No, you don't say.
And so they did so and then the amplifier could be a piece of
crap. So they had to talk in code. And so they had all these
code words for a piece of crap. Oh, okay. What is the code under
most circumstances, and you know, this, I don't even know
what the weasel words are anymore. But they're all in
there. And then when there was a good piece of a really good
product that they liked, they would they would be very
straightforward about it's a terrific app, I would buy one I
can't. This is the best thing I've heard for months, right?
Totally different. And but they would never say anything bad.
And actually, I was in China once giving a lecture to some
Chinese journalists about this.
That by the way, you've got to, I think you should do that
differently. I was in China once giving a lecture. Anyway,
situate that.
I know it sounds like a toss. Don't throw it away. Just throw
it in. Yeah, it was a little I talked to the Chinese have to be
this way with everything, whether there's advertisers or
not, because they're culturally can insult people. So they have
to they use all kinds of very unique ways of saying bad things
about you. Right? But this is a part of the corrupt system. Deal
with and we don't deal with it. And on this show.
No, we don't. We don't. And the only way that we can do that is
by not having advertisers not to taking money any other way from
the people who are what we call producers. Yes, you all listen,
we all listen, we're all listeners. But we're
contributing we're producers. And people do that in many ways.
And the most important way for us to stay on the air is through
our financial contributions just like any big Hollywood
production, or any big news production we'd like to credit
the executive and Associate Executive producers in the
opening credits we always have a long opening because the show
and then we have a separate Thank you segment. So with that

do that. We've done this for years. And at some point that
stops happening. It's only it's a picadillo it's a little thing

although I have I am now finding myself and even miss Mickey's
backing me up when we walked down first street to grab a bite

Devil devil ad devil, Daniel Hochstein in Surprise Arizona
who did not change his clocks. Arizona does not participate in
this scam.
I admire them. I do. 3334 Dear John, and Adam attaches my
donation of 333 30 Forum. I'm heading your call heating and
heating your call for Sunday donations and everyone out there
should be doing the same. No agenda programming is
consistently top notch. And I congratulate you both on keeping
the quality of the show as high as it is nothing else even comes
close to educating the masses on what's really going on. Thanks.
Please send me some new business karma. A stuttering Porky Pig
Obama if you don't mind, I appreciate another mention of my
tech business media media technologies consulting. We
provide a unique in house promotion system that helps
restaurant and bar owners increase sales with their flat
screen TVs called dynamic edge. Oh yeah. In my kitchen. It's the
only system that lets them add promotional content to their
existing live TV program. Oh, this is what this is why I know
what they're doing. And
this is a good idea because almost every single restaurant
in America even high end great. And in Austin, particularly, the
bar always has TVs on.
Now I think what he's might be doing here, I don't know. It's
like a pass through st get to see a demo and get digital
signs.com. So try that out. But here's what I would here's what
I would think is a cool idea. By the way, he's, he's into IQ F
he's at ham, Ah, here's what I would do. I mean, if I was
divided this invention, I would look for there's a code that
comes across when the commercials begin, right? Shows
that code hits you play a local commercial to in your
restaurant. Hey, by the way, we got a real sale on Ramos Fizz,
you know, just ask the bartender kind of thing. And then when it
code now the code comes in saying we're going back to the
programming, you genuine pool of ads and boom, you're back to the
that's not that's not what they're doing. They have a
unique video wrap technology that lets you enhance your
existing TV program and giving you previously unused, giving
your previously unused screen space to customize and add
things like happy hour and meal specials, live sports or news
tickers, sports channel lineups, special events, and
entertainment calendars.
Well, that means there's room for another company he should
be. Well,
he should add. That's a good idea,
I think is a really good idea. That's a very good way. You
know, if you're playing something locally, I know it
might be a violation of some license, that you're playing
something locally, probably illegally. If it's in the bar,
you might as well pull those ads out and put your own ads in, and
maybe even some local businesses. Anyway, so just a
thought So Dallas
no no Whoa,

a donation slash donate we will make a donation to the show.
Chuck W ordered a bag of coffee for each of you. And you'll be
getting a bag of our reserve coffee. We are just poor slaves.
But this is how we can help support the show. John, please

You may have gotten some. And we appreciate all we do have
Russian listeners, which is tons of give us a lot of scoops.
But they I don't know if they have scoops. Yeah, I
think they're Yeah, you're probably right.
I just I just don't think it's
really awesome. I mean, Russians are big gossips. Where does that
come from? I don't know. I think so. You have to be view if
you're repressing the news media is like locked down. The
Americans are big gossips.
I, you know, I think it's I think it's a cultural thing
where they look, they like the Russians and Americans were very
alike. The people. I went to Russia before the wall came
before David Hasselhoff brought the wall down. Thank God for the
half. And I hung out with Russians. You know, they're very
much like us, as I think they are saddened to see how we are
kind of going through what they went through for decades. and
they just kind of standing back and they know that's it, they
probably know, it makes no sense to try and convince us of any
other path than the one we're on. Does that mean does that
sound about? Right?
I don't know. I mean, all I know is that we can't convince
anybody to listen to the show, or like, live down with him as
Obama box.
Well, there's that problem.
People don't change. I mean, you don't? I mean, you can, if
you're already kind of like, falling off the cliff. You can
push them, and they'll fall off. Right. But if they're, like, not
even near a cliff, you can't push them off the cliff.
Right. And also, they know that they're there elites are also
douchebags, I mean, it's, it's Yeah, Putin, of course, is not a
good guy, like Obama, of course, is not a good guy. Ultimately,
all people in power are just a whole, it's just the way it
works. That's just the way it works. It is what it is. What it
is, what it is, thank you all very much for your support of
the program, thank you to our executive producers, our
Associate Executive Producers means the world to us. For seven
years, I always get up with a smile on my face, not knowing
what the next paycheck is gonna be like, but I have faith. In
the show, I have faith in the partnership, I have so much
faith in our international or global intelligence network,
which is producing the show. So take a bow yourself, everybody,
let me give everybody an extra karma. And thank you once again

propagate our formula. Our formula is this we go out yet
people in the mouth
shot at us and also just a comedy podcast. Yeah, and I'm
really here just to make John laugh but when I make John C
Dvorak laugh It's just difficult the real life that I'm not the
not the horse, knowing you know you you have this girly laugh
when you're really laughing. This is a bit like that. I have
a different like when I'm really really
but you Mike and you don't embarrass yourself. I have to
will talk about funny Okay, you want to ever last in my life so
I get the laugh story. All right. This is the last story.
This is my this is a good one. This is the foot fonder on the
loose.
A bizarre arrest at a Southern California college after a man
reportedly fumbled a woman's foot and put it in his mouth
without her consent. Miko overwaitea was arrested on the
Cal State San Marcos campus Thursday night. Police say there
are reports he also harassed students at the campus library.
And at the Starbucks next door. He reportedly also harassed
students down the street at Palomar College. That's kind of
a weird fetish to have. But it's still creepy to know that
there's someone on campus like kind of, you know, being weird
to girls.
Wait a minute. He just walks up grabs your foot and puts it in
his mouth.
Apparently, yes. That's great.
That's great.
Totally in Southern California. I think it is going on
everywhere.
This is not
a buddy. There's a thing called Craigslist. Get to work.
Hey, Euro land is hilarious. This I am. Oh, I'm sorry.
I said this. We know. Yeah. Well,
there's a couple of things that have been going on. First of
all, everyone's out and you know, everyone's leaving. So the
been all kinds of fun speeches and perhaps a little fun speech.
But what was really funny is the there was a European Union says,
Oh, hey, you know, everyone has to contribute to the budget. But
we have done our recalculation. And you know that some countries
that owe some extra money including the United Kingdom's
of Gitmo nation East who've now have been sent a 2.1 billion
Euro bill an extra bill and surprisingly, the Netherlands
number two on the list with a whopping 642 million Euro bill
that they need to pay for the European Union and they're
deadbeats and yes, they are deadbeats for not paying and
this has resulted in an outbreak Ah, I would say outrage mainly
Well, first from the Prime Minister who is in a very
precarious situation now, he cannot seem weak regarding
Europe and Cameron was just he may be a deadbeat. But he's
going to say he's going to prove he's a dead baby. Just
make a couple of points about this. First of all, now,
according to the commission, it is an estimate. It is not a
final figure. And we need to make sure the commission start
answering questions. And the experts start answering
questions about how on earth these numbers were arrived.
Because then we put it like this. Of course, in an
organization like this, if your economy grows a little faster,
or your economy grows a little slower, there are adjustments,
and there can be adjustments every year. And we've seen them
sometimes you pay a little bit more, sometimes you pay a little
bit less. But it has never been the case that a 2 billion Euro
bill has suddenly been presented. And it is not
acceptable. It is appalling way to behave. I'm not paying that
bill on the first of December. If people think I Are they got
another, I'm gonna do they got another thing coming. It is not
going to happen. These emergency meetings need to take place, the
figures need to be thoroughly investigated an explanation of
how this happened, needs to be properly produced that people
should be in their day. As an important contributor to this
organization. We are not suddenly going to get out our
checkbook and write a check for 2 billion euros. It is not
happening.
Oh kid. Okay. Well Barroso, who was of course, on his way out, I
did have a few words to say. And he's saying, Hey,
what are bad? Yeah, he's
like, yeah, hey, man, is the way go Shut up. These
corrections are made very every year. In some years, the net
effect will be to increase a Member States contribution. That
is the case for the UK, the Netherlands and some others this
year. In either case, the case is the net effect will be to
reduce the contribution. This was the case for UK, for
instance, in 2008. The commission is of course ready to
provide my mistakes, any additional explanations in the
context of the MFF. The Commission and proposed
different criteria for establishing European budget
through own resources rather than GNI member states in the
council insisted on maintaining GNI as a key element of the
budget calculation base. The statistical effect is therefore
being built into the system by the budgetary authority. So
according to the information I received from the permission
services from my legal experts, this was a decision taken in
full independence by the statistical entities. And, of
course, I understand the concerns that it's raised, it
has raised in London, but I mean, any person that wants to
look at them with objectivity, and honesty, to the to the, to
the rules that were approved by Member States has to accept that
sometimes these decisions happen.
Yeah, so you need to shut the EFF up essentially, is what he
said Great
Britain get for this $2.5 billion that they spend on the
EU hold
on that is that's just an extra they spend 8 billion annually
they contribute 55 billion euros a day to the EU I can tell you I
looked
at 55 billion euros and millions I'm sorry, a million.
I looked at the here it is the EU budget 2014 and figures now
the entire budget of the European Union for Tuesday.
2014.
This is a good operation that just has meetings.
Let me tell you what's going on 142 billion euros, give or take.
And 142,000,000,640 and a half million 50% 59% of that. Well,
it's the what is the number one? Interest number one is? Okay,
here we go. The top chunk of the pie and this is from looking at
the European Commission website. 59 point to 2% goes toward you
gotta love it. Sustainable Growth. Natural Resources. There
sorry. Yeah, that's where most of the money goes to
sustainable and what is the your timing and you said the total
budget 140 4 million billion billion Yeah. Okay. And 59% that
goes to sustainable growth. Natural Resources. Yes.
Which is code for subsidies for farmers. That's most of what
that is.
Isn't that a WTO violation?
It has to do I don't know that I don't know this
but anyway, died. Okay. So they give. So that would be what 70
Let me accept but $80 billion goes to subsidies for farmers.
Yes. And of course most of this what the European Union about is
equality and be picking up the weak brothers and sisters, etc.
Then we have number two Whew 47 and a half percent of the money
goes toward economic, social, and territorial cohesion. I'm
sorry, I'm sorry, 33% of the letters that I got the numbers
wrong, and I'm sorry that I was looking at the number at the
amounts and not the percentages. So sustainable growth is 41.6%,
almost 60 billion. Okay. economic, social and territorial
cohesion is 33.3%. Then we have
does that mean? A fuck of I know where I'm just
asking territorial co he is bringing as probably meetings
meetings, then we have the third with 11.6% competitiveness for
job for growth and jobs, more meetings, then we have
administration, that is the building's the people, the right
people
have set up the meeting. 6%
So that is, how much would that be? So it looks that would be
quite a bit of money. You buy James billion seven, 8 billion,
maybe then global Europe gets 5.8% Whatever that means, then
security and citizenship 1.5%. But if you really look at the
explanation of the entire budget, I see I have another
link here. Let's look at the book of knowledge kind of
explains it. In layman's terms. The European Union has a budget
to pay for policies carried out at European level such as
agriculture assistance to poorer regions, trans European networks
research, some overseas development aid and for its
administration, including a parliament executive branch and
judiciary that are distinct from those of the member states.
These arms administer the application of treaties, laws
and agreements between the member states and expenditure on
common policies throughout the union. And the way the budget is
determined and what what the member states must pay is based
upon their economies. Here's a 17 second explanation. The
adjustment is
based on the growth of the UK economy compared to others in
the EU. After the recalculation, Germany reduces its EU fees by
614 million pounds, France by 789 million, while Britain adds
1.7 billion to its EU membership serves.
And I think there was a mistake that was made. You'll recall the
Office for National Statistics recalculated the size of the
British or the UK national income to take account of
unreported and other underreported parts of the
economy such as research and development, drugs and
prostitution.
And I remember that drugs and prostitution thing and they
added some money in today. Look at us they're adding money to
cook the books because economy was weak and now they get stuck
with a bill. Hey, ironic. Exactly.
George Osborne, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Finance
Minister, treasury secretary would be the equivalent that He
was God. gobsmacked smacked gobsmacked. smocks meet smart,
I think is unacceptable. It's an unacceptable way for this
organization to operate that countries like Britain, and
indeed other countries, Italy, Holland are just presented with
these demands for extra money, without any notice. David
Cameron, while we're doing what we were told earlier this week,
last week, earlier this week, which day? I think we've told on
Tuesday. So why did we only learn now about us? But because
it's surfaced as the European Council approaches, right? I
mean, we've the we've absolutely will ambush them. That's the
point. Really, I mean, ambush. If the even the president of the
European Commission yesterday said didn't have a clue about
this. That was yesterday. So somewhere in the organization,
they've produced these numbers. It's not acceptable. It's not an
acceptable way for the organization to work. And David
Cameron, alongside the Italian Prime Minister, the Dutch Prime
Minister, you know, the Greek Prime Minister are raising these
issues. As we're doing this interview at the European
Council. He honestly had no idea this was coming. We knew the
numbers have been revised. We knew there was a new assessment
is isn't it naive to say you wouldn't have known that this
was going to this was going to be this was this appears to have
been a calculation done, and handed in the bowels of the
European Commission handed out at a meeting of relatively
junior civil servants
based on hookers. Yeah, based on hookers and drugs. I would make
the argument and look at France isn't going to put their hookers
into the calculation in Italy's not putting it putting their
hookers in the calculation will give you a different number that
you can charge us for.
Everyone should be counting their hookers. Yeah, it's bad,
bad business. Well A sense otherwise had Have you ever seen
the the president of Lithuania? I think so blonde girl. blonde
girl no. Oh no wiki pedia she's known as the Iron Lady. You need
to check this check. I
think we talked about her before.
I don't recall Dahlia, group bow Skype T girbau Subterranea.
President. Look,
you got to look at it. You got to look at before I before I
play the clip. Okay. Yeah, look at her. This woman is all
business.
Oh, this one? Yeah, yeah. No, she's not a blonde girl. She is
a she is a
Iron Lady.
The i Yeah, she and I are a tough, a tough, a tough cookie.
A tough, tough woman. Tough, tough, tough, tough.
And here's what she had to say. John McCain actually never seen
in the same font got a
picture. I got damages up. John McCain showed up for some reason
in this. Google, HD wide. That's all about Google
algorithms.
Lithuanian President meets US Senator John McCain. Oh, there
you go. All right. Ready? Yeah, it is happening
every every time. And every year and nothing new. And that's the
case today with 7 billion. I mean, that's a lot of money that
Britain's Got to fight. I'm sorry. But better to be more
precise with calculations.
Yeah. Go ahead. argue with that. Mr. Cameron. Of course, one
person is delighted with this news. And that would be Nigel
Farage,
we already paid 55 million pounds a day, as a membership
fee to this club, to be asked for a whole load more, and give
him a few days in which to pay it. It's pretty outrageous. And
I think people will be very, very angry. And it just leaves
Mr. Cameron in a hopeless position. Because don't forget,
one of his big claims was he'd cut the EU budget, the result of
that cut was actually our contribution had already gone up
a little bit. And now it's come up a load. So, you know,
frankly, the sooner this all comes to a head, and the British
have a referendum on this subject, the better. Yay.
So and the Dutch Prime Minister Margarita, who was just a weasel
boy. He doesn't know what to say about oh, we'll have
conversations about this. And deisel Blum, who is the you
know, he was the guy coordinating all of the all of
the financial union, the fiscal union. He had said time and
again in the Netherlands, we won't we won't get a bill at the
end of the year now. We're all good. We're all good. And that
shows up and now he's looking like a douche. Yeah, then this
is all this is all very interesting that 642 Men
can afford it. But the United States look at those fancy
buildings they build and they hire me meetings. They haven't
they pay for travel. No, yeah. It adds up. It really, they
really, they really built up a fantastic operation. It's
beautiful. It's beautiful. But the place is in shambles. And
they just completed their stress test. Of the of the banks. Yeah.
And the numbers are in. I believe 25. Banks in the
European Union did not stand the test. And they now have to they
have they have a number of months have to see somewhere in
2015. They these 25 banks have to raise or at least have I
think 10 to 15 billion extra euros in their coffers in order
to be financially sound. The end to be able to withstand any kind
of any kind of Armageddon. Let me hear oh, here it is. 25 eu
banks fail. Over 31 point 68 billion capital shortfall. Yeah,
so each of these had they have to increase their capital by 15
billion euros This is nine months they have to cover that
so that guests have to issue shares in order to do that.
Staying with banks was real quick. Chianti Lee Lane lane.
Learn new lien. Dominique Strauss Kahn, former IMF head
ousted under false pretense. Dominique Strauss Kahn's
partner, committed suicide jumping from his 23rd floor
apartment. They have a hedge fund together.
What the heck you think happened here? Yeah,
this we don't know. Perhaps almost as interesting. Senior
Deutsche Bank regulatory Lawyer found dead in New York after
committing suicide, kalo Gero, gam, Gambino, 41, hung himself.
Perhaps nobody does, by the way, happen.
Thank you happens to be very well known by ex banker friend
here in Austin. So I will be getting inside information.
Let's assume these two were murdered. And if we do if we
make that assumption, the question remains why? What is
going on?
Well, the I'm not I don't know about the, the Dominique Strauss
Kahn guy, the Gambino guy was closely involved in negotiating
legal issues for Deutsche in their manipulate their role in
the manipulation of the LIBOR benchmark that scandal, which
during that whole scandal, yeah, so maybe, you know, it's
regulatory stuff, but still, I mean, the guy's 41 I, somebody
had to pick up the drug money from HSBC. I agree with you. I
don't I think this hanging thing is lane.
Ya know, we've talked to some suicide folks. Experts, they
expect two things. One, you don't hang yourself, and you
leave a suicide note.
I don't know if there was a suicide note. But we will find
out. We will find out. And I because I emailed my buddy. And
he said, he brought me back, it was apparent that he knew him
very well, to try to find stuff out. And I said, well, the
conspiracy nut jobs are out and about my way of kind of saying,
hey, you know, I'll clear his name for you. Just give me the
inside details.
Conspiracy. Yeah, we reach somebody is reported, we get
emails about it. I like the way you how you handled this is the
Adam curry division. On the no agenda show he handles all the
emails about suicide. So write to him. adam@curry.com.
Yeah. But oh, and by the way, thank you, everybody that I can
see that you're using Twitter more often, if you just want to
send me a link. And it's and I love it. And here's another
reason I like this to tweet if you have to actually explain
something to me. Of course, you can write me but I prefer not.
It's just it's, if you can just send the link with your 140
characters of explanation. Because if I can, whenever I've
seen the link, I clicked I favorite your tweet. So that you
know that I've seen it. It's a great, great ID
or do you favorite favorite? Do you actually favorite things?
I've never favorite anything?
So the only reason I do it is because that sends a signal back
to the person that I saw it. It's much easier than reply
hitting reply. Like, it's like it's like hitting a like, Yeah,
but it doesn't really send out a ping to anybody in my newsfeed.
And sometimes I retweet them if they're good. If they're really
good. I'm not going to retweet it. This is a little thing you
need to understand. Because I want to save it for the show.
And please consider put when you put both of us on emails and
tweets, it's not always a good thing.
Not just if it's really good material, like very deep
insights of just send it to me.
Yeah, exactly. So it can go into the void of nothingness. Do you
like dwell? Okay, so what you feel?
No, I'm just kidding. You know, I don't really mean that.
So we heard from our economic hitman.
Oh, okay. You had said that we had kind of lost him.
Yeah, it's because his Russian girlfriend he is. Yeah. Is that
still on? He didn't mention her in the email. So I don't know.
But he's in Africa. And floating around the place. Yeah. Well,
he's fun. Right. He claims that the were off the we're wrong.
About the Ebola being a hoax. He says he. Of course he hasn't
been. Yeah, let me read. Yeah, please. I'm listening to your
show from yesterday to 23 wanted to share some thoughts. Firstly,
Ebola is definitely occurring in the three countries and ever
said it wasn't
happening, wasn't it? Yeah, but I just don't know if it's real
that way. Right. It's not
that's a different way of looking at me. We something can
be happening, but the way it's presented is the hoax.
And I hope he talks about the 4000 troops we've sent over
there.
Nope. Okay. He just says that they were wrong about that. And
secondly, I do not prescribe to the fear bowl of flights that
the region generally returned to the state as mentioned there are
a couple of flights that are direct from Africa and he wanted
to correct us when I keep saying there's no flights No, it's not
true. Oh, there are some flights from South Africa which does not
fly by buy. Okay, claims there's also how appeal from getting can
take overland travel to Senegal, Senegal, there's direct flights
Senegal. There's direct flight on that So yeah, and the doctor
came from Guinea now as Ebola may have chosen this route,
those of us in the international development field know about
flights to and from Africa, I would guess that 95% Go through
Europe and or Dubai, which leaves Delta direct to South
Africa via Senegal, for refueling and back again the
same day JFK to Ghana, to Ghana to South Africa and back again.
So they jumping around. Okay. There are more flights from
South Africa to to the US to the USA, which do not hit West
Africa. So he's I don't know if he's telling us or wrong or
right or just clarifying. Okay. He just says my points possible
for people to travel in direct flight to the US from West
Africa. And I know this because I've done it. Okay. Okay, fine.
So he can no longer fly to New York, New Jersey, we are going
to force quarantine.
That's it. We read that carefully. It's only if you were
a doctor.
Okay. All right. I got sucked in.
My son is bringing his Son into the game. Oh, my son may be
moving to Senegal for a semester abroad and his mother's very
worried. Now I have to really question myself whether he will
be safe, that he's getting Jesus working on him. In Senegal,
which is a who and CDC certified Ebola free? Yeah, they bury
their dead differently than they do in Liberia, and Sierra Leone
so so should I believe like Adam, that Ebola is a hoax or
believe that it's real as I do, but I accept that there is a
little or no risk are my son in Senegal. So he's thinking these
just torn. And he says, he's always listening still finds it
funny when you make when you guys make fun of my friends like
Sylvia Mathews, burl Burrell, Beretta Burwell, head of HHS s.
Sylvie, the head of HHS is a buddy. Okay. She is an amazing
person and not just a one dimensional person, as Adam
suggested.
When did I do even talk about her?
I think made it once. It must have stuck out like a sore thumb
to him.
All right. But yeah, he doesn't. He doesn't like me. We know that
the Hitman doesn't like me. That's okay.
It doesn't not like you. Oh, yeah, I don't know, whatever the
case is, we find out nothing about his girlfriend. He's in, I
guess, somewhere in Africa floating around and living it
up?
Well, here's the things that we know currently. And I of course,
appreciate what the economic hitman says always. But he's not
really addressing the core issue. The test for Ebola by the
way is not so cut and dry as you'd think it is. I just
started reading this this morning. The test really is not
all that super conclusive. You have to do real DNA analysis to
find out if the Ebola is really in there. And if you now look at
the World Health Organization, they are they list the possible
signs of having Ebola equal just equal to seasonal flu. So this
is very sketchy. And now we find out through the New York Times
that there has always been an Ebola vaccine has been ready for
testing. But it was just on the shelf because there was no
market. So Gee, now we have a market we we certainly are now
testing it on some African some West Africans. Yep, EIA. We'll
see how that goes. If they die, or if they live, you know, the
human Rats of West Africa. That's how the pharmaceutical
industry loves to do it. And, you know, well, actually, I have
two clips regarding this. There were some congressional
hearings, the inspector general, this is the guy who provides
oversight over different bad Well, you have an inspector
general for each department within the United States
government, the upper acik, which is huge. Of course, we
have Department of Homeland Security, who have been spending
all kinds of money. We know they spend money very poorly. We know
they spend it on things that don't work or
waste money. Thank you. They waste the American taxpayers
money,
and he had a scathing report over the pandemic preparedness
of the department. In short, our audit connect concluded that DHS
mismanaged their program in three ways. First, we found that
DHS did not adequately conduct a needs assessment before
purchasing protective equipment and antiviral drugs. As a
result, we could not determine the basis for DHS has decisions
regarding how much or what types of pandemic supplies to
purchase, store or distributed. As a result, DHS may have too
much of some equipment and too little of others. Yay. For
example, we found that DHS has a stockpile of about 350,000 White
coveralls suits and 16 that Lilium surgical masks, but
hasn't been able to demonstrate how either fits into their
pandemic preparedness plans. It has a significant quantity of
antiviral drugs. But again, without a full understanding of
the department's needs in the event of a pandemic, we have no
assurance that the quantity of drugs will be appropriate.
Second, DHS purchased much of the equipment and drugs without
thinking through how these supplies would need to be
replaced. The material DHS has purchased has a finite shelf
life. For example, TSA stock of pandemic protective equipment
includes about 200,000 respirators that are beyond the
five year usability date guaranteed by the manufacturer.
In fact, the department believes that their entire stockpile of
personal protective equipment will not be usable after 2015.
Likewise, the antiviral drugs DHS purchased are nearing the
end of their effective life. Yay, DHS is attempting to extend
that shelf life of these drugs through an FDA testing program.
But the results of that are not guaranteed. Third, DHS did not
manage its inventory of drugs or equipment. As a result, DHS did
not readily know how much protective equipment and drugs
it had on hand, or where it was being stored drugs and equipment
had gone missing. And conversely, our audit has found
drugs in the DH in DHS inventory that the department thought had
been destroyed. We visited multiple sites and found drugs
that were not being stored in a temperature controlled
environment. Because DHS cannot be assured that they were
properly stored. They are in the process of recalling a
significant quantity of them. Because they not may not be safe
or effective. Let's close that thing down. Close it down
people. Wow. Yeah, that would be a clip of the day. No, no,
it's gusting. It would be a clip of the day. I'm
the reason the I thought Ebola was over and done with we know
the nurses are cure the doctors are cured. Nigeria is cured.
Everyone's getting cured. We're doing great there more people.
The app happy they're happy. But the problem is the Ebola is
testing off the charts. The ratings are this is everybody
wants to watch Ebola news.
Well, I've got some clips that prove it. Let's talk about let
me play my clips that I have the fam the first Ebola victim, this
the nurse and his little here's a little background and she's
the one we hugged Obama tried to get this off the news cycle even
though they can't quite manage it because Bonanza is Republican
and so you know, so Obama decides to get come forward with
this. So here's the Ebola famine, Bentley.
New this morning, the first Texas nurse infected with the
Ebola virus has returned home Ebola free, a private jet
carrying 26 year old Nina Pham arrived at the Fort Worth
airport just before midnight central time she was being
treated at the National Institutes of Health Clinical
Center near Washington DC. And before she left she visited the
White House and received a hug from President Obama.
first of the two Dallas nurses who were diagnosed. Nina Pham
was declared Ebola free than yesterday. I was proud to
welcome her to the Oval Office and give her a big hug.
I do not know how I can ever thank you everyone enough for
their prayers and their expressions of concern. Hope and
Love.
Fam says she is looking forward to being reunited with her dog
Bentley. Bentley is being held in quarantine for three weeks at
an old military base near Dallas to make sure he is not infected
with Ebola.
What old military base in Dallas? I don't know all the
military base. What's it what's it still in service for?
We should go take a look at it. Yeah, old military military
base.
Don't give us any details. Well in the area this is not even
anywhere near Dallas was causing quite a situation. This is the
Ebola Texas Halloween.
Texas man's Halloween decorations are causing some
controversy. He is poking fun at the Ebola outbreak. With a house
that's been decorated to appear like a hazmat scene. Some
neighbors have called the display distasteful due to the
local connection to the outbreak. The first person dying
to be diagnosed with Ebola in the US died at a hospital in
Texas.
I just love Halloween. It's fun. And what's the scariest thing on
the market right now? Unfortunately, it's Ebola.
The city of University Park Texas says the display is legal
even though it may be in bad taste.
Yeah, you know, I am so annoyed with Halloween in general. It
first of all, it's become a license for grown people to get
drunk and puke. And I hate it. It's disgusting. I won't go to a
Halloween party. Because I'm just getting drunk. But don't
like drunk people. I
don't think I've ever been to a Halloween party. Ah I've been my
dad used to always take the kids out with you we go off yeah, we
go trick or treating and eating and then it was over. We said
place on in Berkeley that around the corner about three blocks
away. We swear this guy's a pedophile because he had his
most elaborate. I mean you if you were a kid you could not not
go in there. It was a it was like a haunted house that his
whole house is
right and yeah, you have a maze you walk through all kinds
of stuff and you'd go in there and I remember a guy Hey, good
to see. And he was that all these kids in the house? It was
like Herbert to pervert on the show. I'm surprised he hasn't
done pervert. Yeah, Herbert the pervert on Family Guy. Oh, okay.
Herbert the pervert the old man. Yeah. And anyway, so it's very
entertaining. This is all very entertaining. The whole
Halloween thing.
Mickey and I like to dress up and scare kids who come up to
the you know we'd like to do it's good. I think that's wise.
Mickey gets a little too into it. Kids running away screaming
Yeah, well, that's dead. She's done her job. Yeah, she's I
would give her 10 points for that. And by Shay, she's gone up
a notch.
I I like that. But I do not like the parties. And
now that Mike
and I think this is perfectly appropriate. This is a great
idea. I haven't mentioned I want to have a bola suit as a
costume.
I think it was really funny. Walking around in a hazmat suits
got to be fun. It's to a patient with blood. Actually, Jay
thought this would be a good she used to really dress up in these
elaborate costumes. She thought it'd be great to go as an Ebola
patient with blood coming out your ears and your mouth and
anal cavity Well, it's not going to bend over and show anyone
your butt so it doesn't make any difference there. But the point
is, is that you'd go into this horribly bloody person and you'd
have a bowl or something scratched on your forehead to be
great. Anyway one more clip I this one is not important but I
want to play this clip because there's a there's an anomaly in
here. These are the two anchors after they gave a bunch of
reports on KTVU about a bola and this guy who I've never seen
before talks about how he just came in from Kansas City and
people are wearing face masks sorry yeah two different places
and beside the point that they neither one of them say this is
not an airborne disease this is dumb. There's actually a usage
in here that it needs comment and
it's still a serious situation flying back from Kansas City at
a stop at the airport in Dallas and a number of people we saw
wearing mask so really just regular passengers gate and
wearing masks obviously putting it on themselves there's no
requirement to wear masks but it is on the minds
Prakash still
at that airport in Dallas yes as a precaution Yes yes.
wearing masks stupid
it's stupid.
He says wearing mask
yeah wearing masks because he he's pronounced the cater Isn't
it like
wearing a mask or wearing masks? Now he says wearing masks This
is that usage? Like I'm going to university yeah let me ask you
some in hospital
well okay, this is European Oh wearing okay I got you wearing
masks well that's wearing mask Yeah, I am wearing mask I am
with child
with child's not even as bad as this. Well, I'm sorry. wearing
mask. There was an English professor on one of the song
upset that's actually going on and on about how this I you
know, he's at university or he's in high in hospital, in hospital
in hospital. This sort of thing and it did outline why this is
bad grammar. But I never heard anyone say wearing mask. I'm
sorry. Just a little side training.
I have one what each I have one clip. One.
I'm just now annoyed that you didn't pick this up. And
I'm sorry. I think I imagined the s. So if you didn't hear
Obama Bin Laden either it had
it right. Okay, we're even Bill Maher. Well, God, yeah.
Well, we don't really know what the situation is here because
the cat got out of the bag about a week ago. And it takes more
than that time to see if you've got the disease. So it should
have been quashed right away. I thought it was you know, I
thought America had this. I think there's one thing we can
do. Because when the first doctor came back, the one who
survived it, we saw him get out of the ambulance to get the suit
on it was like okay, this is not the Third World. Then one guy
comes here from Liberia. One guy, and we couldn't keep that
contained. Because those morons in that fucking hospital in
Dallas. He got my attention now. Sorry. Excuse me. I said I
wouldn't get this upset. Listen to the audience applaud him
saying Those morons in the fucking hospital in Dallas you
know where this is going don't you?
Do you know where the salsa dummy yeah but
I did some because they love their freedom down in Texas they
don't like rules and regulations oh god knows what to do and
revenues and the federal government look what could go
wrong this I've been told
you rarely rarely okay Mr. Once you come on down to Texas Big
Boy we're gonna we're gonna take your back son I'll talk that way
that's just rude it's very rude because we're because we love
our freedom here that says
the hospitals are crap because it's all post hoc arguments or
just we love our freedoms all crappy arguments that are that
he gets his audience worked up with his makes no logical sense.
The guy's a master at it. Yeah. And I know and he does it with
passion so that makes it okay.
Just nude just wanted to say that guy. I like he's funny.
Sometimes he's it's fun to watch to irritate but you can't just
you know, I It's strange when you live in Texas. You do kind
of get that thing.
But what do you think? Like don't
mess with taxes like this edge? Yeah, you don't Don't Mess With
Texas you get kind of or?
Well, it is a different place. Totally like Texas. I don't like
their liquor laws. I think this kind of lane some of
them are very lame. Ah, complete dry counties and stuff. Oh,
yeah. It's stupid. It's stupid.
And the rest of the state is you can drink while driving. Well, I
think that's
Hello. Hello. It's part of our culture. Yeah, you can drink
beer
while driving. You can drink hard liquor. You could
brewski that's no problem. Hey, we got it. We got a lot of
driving we do here is boring. It's got to entertain yourself.
John, it's been seven years. And we have a lineup of people who
want to thank us. I think we have some sacks of seven. I can
see them dangling there in front of me. So why don't we get right
to it here. I'm gonna show my son moved by Jonah. No agenda.
Oh, yeah, that'd be fun.
Yes, we have a few people to thank. And this is the show what

People it's it's coming to a head. Now you save up long
enough you stick with the show long enough then sure enough,
you can join the the it works for everybody. You don't have to
be a rich man or a woman $5 A month can get you there. So that
would take a while. And while some people spice it up from
time to time, but you get the same ring you get the same
certificate and we are very happy to bring you up onto the
podium and at superar a sword at you so please join us Simon boy,
Justin Hilton, Michael games and Joshua Dietrich. All of you are
now about to become members of the roundtable. The no agenda
Knights and Dames and I hereby pronounce the cave the SIR Boyd
Perth of West oz. Sir Hilton, sir Mike Knight of the high
places and CERN. Dietrich. Gentlemen, please for year we
have hookers and blow around boys and Chardonnay root beer
and Legos as cream and bear fillings porn stars and pot
mushrooms and Maker's Mark bad science and perky breasts, three
geishas and a bucket of fried chicken hot pans and booze, bong
hits and bourbon, and mutton and Mead. And please go to no agenda
nation.com/rings We have new rings coming in. You talking
about Eric?
Yeah, I want to mention a couple things. Eric, when he does the
little paperwork that you get a little certificate, it's
actually a little on like a quasi parchment thing. It's got
your actual title in like these longer titles that people
request, he gets them printed on there. And then some people
tweet them. Yeah. And I think that's a policy that everyone
should undertake up to two of us. Yeah, you get your little
ring and you got your paperwork and you put the ring there with
maybe the ceiling wax if you want and take a photo and then
tweet it, and I will retweet it.
I agree. Oh, yeah, I'll retweet it too. Yes. I'll retreat your
retreat. You we tweet. The dude named Ben sent us a little note
here, which he thinks will be a red book and that we've heard
from him before. He thinks he has a red book prediction this
would fall in line with a chip and pin conversion. Of course,
we're seeing lots of news reports now and we're all
getting ramped up now. The President has signed the
executive order that will help the banks with their integration
of the chip and pin cards. She had been pinched in pin. I've
written you previously about the target data leak. I have read
book entry that you prove myself to also be a time traveler. Yes.
Join me. As I stated in the past, I work with an onsite tech
service our newest pushes to replace all pin pads for
Walmart, Walmart, at least 2500 of them nationally. After
completing target, they had a leak within six months after
Home Depot. It was four months. I think the next one will be
bigger and sooner I give it three months after completion by
prediction as we've seen major data breach within four to six
months for Walmart. Good enough prediction, I'd say
was he working thesis? Is he working at Walmart
now he says he works on site tech service. He's a part of the
integration teams that put these new new terminals in place. And
that's what happened. Why would be a whopper well, would it ever
and it would be perfect timing, you know, a couple of months
just before we have to integrate everything and have some that's
why The Congress can say, Oh, we already have the executive
order. Let's put some money behind this. We need to protect
people. And
I think that the question is, would you want to do this before
or after the election has to be after it has to be I can't do it
because it's gonna reflect poorly on the administration.
You cannot do it now. I don't think that will work at all is
word out there for the I mean, if they hackers or a bunch of
Republicans, they could probably do it before the election, it
would be funny. It this.
It appears to me that this whole climate change business has
fallen apart. So they had the climate talks in Bonn, Germany.
And they just again, I'll read it to you here. Our concern was
high to perceive lack of urgency as United Nations Climate
Negotiations shuffled towards the close shuffled towards the
closing Bonn on Saturday with just 14 months left to finalize
a new global pact. This is from John Paul's press. The six day
meeting of senior officials in the form of West German capital
was meant to lay the groundwork for the annual round of
ministerial level un talks in Lima. In December then these
guys get around. Hey, where are we? Where's our next meet?
That's
another reason to be on board. Yeah, we get a lot of rooms
travel, it's go to Peru. I've always wanted to go to person
great. It's a great place. I was looking at the list of Michelin
three star restaurants. They got two of them in Peru now man
leave. I really love to try one of those places and buy some
blankets while I was there and come back
rate mastic nice. I'm going to take Christina to Tokyo in
March. Okay. I have to ask DeMasters if I can if the pads
available. Daddy daughter trip, though. Okay, that should be
fun. Scene to intern the Lima forum must pave the way to
historic PAC which nation so they just they don't make any
big decisions. I think that they all know it's bullcrap. Now, and
no one wants to be responsible. And also all these the lesser
nations, the African countries certainly are all saying, Hey,
can you send us money? Where's our check?
Yeah, that's there. This the whole thing? Yeah. They've been
running checks for a while. Yeah, it was our check.
It's it's kind of falling apart. It's not done really working out
very well. So I have here, war on Twitter. But you know, we
have this in the book where it's still evaluating if this is a
real war on Twitter. Of course, the Queen posted her first
tweet. And she was immediately trolled.
Yeah, well, if you want to call it that. I mean, the Pope has
been on Twitter forever. Nobody's you know, I mean, they
made such a big deal out of it. Everyone knows the Queen's not
tweeting.
While we saw her do it.
Yes. Yeah. It's proof I suspect she got she got trolled ignored.
What if you want to call it troll? I
don't like that. I hate the term trolls.
It doesn't really make sense.
It's just but it is a continuous trolls on Twitter trolls on
Twitter trolls on Twitter. There's a nonstop meme of trolls
on Twitter. Yeah, there's I'm still thinking Twitter.
And that might be under there might be targeted some kind of
trouble. But as I mentioned the poll by what caught this little
segment I didn't realize I haven't watched this for a while
I've been watching the real the daily talk show.
What I don't I'm not familiar with the show. The real no
way he I had clips of it. One clip after another, but it's the
ghetto show with the skanks. Oh, I'm
sorry. Yeah, okay. Yeah. And I remember very
entertaining. Yes. And I'm actually liking the show more
and more as I get more and more into this skanks.
You're into skanks. Now you're skinning
should be called skanks. railings. I ever really
understood what a skank was, until I started watching this
show. You just know it's like it's like fine. You know, it's
like porn. You see,
porn is this is a skank. Always female can the skank be male as
well? Well, and
this show is only females. Okay. I don't know, I know what a male
skank would be like. But that's beside the point. I went back
and I retro to the view. Now the views been completely redone. So
it's it looks kind of the same, but now they're at a table and
that's sitting on a couch around the table. It's like a corny,
old fashioned talk show, you know, Washington Weekend Review
or something like that.
And I've seen some of this. I do not like their new format. I
don't think it's very bad. And they've been they've been doing
like promotions and quizzes and tests and selling stuff has been
terrible. So yeah. And Whoopi Goldberg is the main host now.
And she is you can barely understand she sounds like she's
drunk all the time. And she can't open her eyes. And so she
goes off on this on this Pope stuff. And Rosie O'Donnell who
used to be running the show is at the other end, and she just
kind of makes comments every once awhile because she knows
she needs the money. Now you saw this is an exchange that took
place, which indicates to me the level of stupidity that you have
to deal with with these with this Show and why why the real
is a much better show.
for making headlines for his call to accept the gay
community, which was echoed in the document drafted by the
Cardinals yesterday, the pope closed his assembly of Catholic
Bishops by saying God is not afraid of new things, but his
skin like cardinals are, because the part about gay acceptance
has been removed from the document by that, which I find
extraordinary. Because as I was growing up, I was always told
that the Pope was the living representation of God, and he
was making the call. So basically, what are you saying
Cardinals is that the Pope don't know his stuff.
The president in Congress, the President does something. And
Congress says Sorry, we
don't know we're not gonna do that. Yeah, right. Yeah, kind of
freaky. So what we get out of this is that Rosie O'Donnell,
and I guess the rest of these women all think that Obama is
the Pope.
Yeah, exactly. They exerts
a one to one ratio. Do they even know how this our government
works? He is even have a clue. I I'm saying no, then I think the
Obamas the pope
Rosie, I do think has a clue. But she I go back and forth.
The one who said it.
I know. Miss Mickey identified some things. She said there's
something going on. There's a lot of push on NPR, about gays
in the church. And she said there's something going on pay
attention to it. And this is part of it. I'm not quite sure
what it is. But she said there was there is there are people
talking about changing the text of the Bible to make it more gay
friendly. And I'm like, yeah, why? Yeah,
why not? And it's been rewritten so many times. There's a bunch
of Bible sites, I recommend people check them out once in a
while. And you can look up like, you know, these various passages
that people like to hold signs up about and you can look at in
a good Bible site, they will have 20 different versions,
because they have 20 different Bibles. Sure. And they go back
to old Bibles, middle aged Bibles, new Bible, some of the
new Bibles and put a lot of the new ones the newest of the new
and because they're copyrighted, which is another thing is mind
boggling. The newest of the new Bibles are all copy written. And
they're transferred.
Wait a minute, wait a minute, who was copyrighted the newest
of the new Bibles and all
these new Bibles, the new American, this and the new the
new adopt blah, blah, Bible, really, if you look at all these
different Bibles, there's a bunch of them that are
copyrighted, Jewish, the newest versions, and they use all the
references, they use different reference materials. Some of
them have expert planetory texts, some of them don't. And
there's all these new Bibles as there's been a lot and a lot of
the most radical churches use, you know, a specific Bible that
they can use to backup their sermons. Yeah,
okay. Mom, that's interesting.
Yeah, it's always fascinated me. Okay. Thanks. A lot of work.
Nobody's going to do a new translation of the Bible and
then leave it on copyright. That's for
sure. That okay, I can understand that. There's a lot
of work to Yes. Holy moly, rewrite them the read
transcribed, rewrite the Bible. I think it's a good idea. I
think you should totally do that. Make it more.
You're not going to read it anyway. So what difference and I
have read the Bible that the New York gotta read the gay Bible.
What do you mean? I wrote it? Hello? Hey, it's Sunday. It's
Sunday, John. You know what that means?
On my phone, the way I see it, the only good phones a landline,
and the phone should be made out of Bakelite. Hey,
hey, there's some going on. Tech News. What this is tech snares
this tech news. Yeah, no,
I know. Tech News. That's the intro to tech news.
You got any tech news? You got anything? phones out that I know
of? Oh, come on. There's gotta be a new phone somewhere. I'm
sure we can talk.
I think the iPhone six is the newest phone and apparently,
people use a new phone ad is a new, very funny Android ad
that's floating around. And by the way, I think the new ads for
Apple not good.
I have not seen them. Ah. What are they? What are the
what is my nose? I look at my mouth. Joe said Steve would
never approve
this ad. What is the what is the essence of the ad? Yep, I
don't know. I can tell by some by Apple. You don't think they'd
put an Apple Store ad at one of these days? Oh, come by to the
Apple Store. We've got a million items all for sale. And no, I've
never seen an Apple Store ad. I think they should start doing
that.
Well, here. No. You got no tech news?
No, I do have
some tech news. Yeah, you can't.
But I want to say that when you come out of this go to the war
on chicken news.
Oh, yes. Oh, okay. Let me let me wrap it up. All right, I'm
racked up. Good guy
Zoll commentary. Yes.
Oh, it'll be just like that show. I'll read the news and you
comment on it. Are you doing that show today? You didn't
tweet today? No,
we're not that no, no. All right, you're gonna probably
have some important people on
according to sources, the computer network within the
Executive Office of the President has been down for
almost a week. Staff throughout various components still lack
basic access to their files, although apparently they now can
access email and the internet. The White House is not common
that's because we had these the new CTO and the other guys that
are running the smart guys that are running the I don't know
that's an issue. I would think the big white house things
shouldn't be down for more than you know, an hour why down at
all, there's no reason for it to be that it should never be down.
No down. No reason to be down at all.
There's these we've been having x flares, and this is big, big
sunspot that is just building up and won't go away. If you've
been following this at all. It's not at all on a cool yeah, this
thing if this thing in a blow. Yeah, why eventually of course,
it'll blow up. We don't know when but it seems like it's
really kind of bubbling. Getting ready to go and if it if it if
it really goes in our direction, it would be a fabulous one.
A great blow out a lot of stuff. It could Yeah.
Could I have two of those Chinese 70 centimeter two meter
handhelds in a Faraday bag.
Why? Well, you get blowed up by the flare coming through. Blow
it up, blow right up. Not even running, not even hooked
anything that just came right through the house and hit that
so I don't know. I don't know what up. I don't know could I
don't know. I don't know if they're wrapping aluminum foil
that would do the trick.
Well, it's it's a Faraday bag, which is aluminum bag.
Yeah, you don't need the bag. You can just get some aluminum
foil kites or aluminum. Pull it out and rip UPS piece off and
wrap it in that that's the same thing. You spent money for a
Faraday bag. No,
I did not. It's a bag that it was a promotional item. I didn't
spend any money on it. But did you get it on my case? Man?
I think people shouldn't be using aluminum foil more.
I'm trying to. Well, no, I agree with that. There are people you
know, people. And what is aluminum foil actually for? When
I met Mickey, here's here's a question for you. You can answer
this. This is part of tech news. I find aluminum usage to be part
of technology. Right? I
believe I believe I'm a big user of aluminum foil and I believe I
have the answer to whatever question you're going to ask.
Okay.
I have a two parter one. What is the primary use for aluminum
foil and two? Should aluminum foil be used to keep things
fresh in the refrigerator which is when I met Mickey she did not
use the plastic bag. She wrapped everything in aluminum foil and
I found that to be interesting. And personally, I did not
believe it was effective. Dr. vorak please your answer?
Well, aluminum foil is usually used in the cooking processes as
an underlying thing you can put stuff on top of or it can be
used as a tent
for various why why why why why why why
you would tent a turkey for example. You put an aluminum
foil tent because it doesn't melt in the oven. It's a high
temperature device and it's cools off really fast. Right?
Good product,
but what why do you just explain why do you put it underneath
something?
Well, I made a toasted cheese sandwich the other night. I put
the sandwich I put the I don't like kind of just get out of
Good. Bring pieces of gear out. Just put down a piece of
aluminum foil, put the bread down, turn on the broiler and
there's a sandwich there on top of that aluminum foil doesn't
die with the dirty a dish
and you don't have to do do you have to flip it over?
A little of what a toasted cheese sandwich
Have you only had one side of the one side open side with the
cheese? Cheese on top. What about cheese
regular toasted cheese sandwich I'll fry it what kind of usually
an olive oil there'll be a grilled cheese and that's a
grilled cheese. That's right. Exactly. Okay, but it's not
really grilled is fried. Grilled would be on South Side on a
grill. Yes. Or you know you put it on to over the fire and it
would burn the sandwich to a to a grill
talk about the tenting the tenting using the foil for
tenting what is the purpose of the tenting
so keeps do retain a little bit of moisture so that Turkey
doesn't dry out too much during a part of the cooking process.
It's optional. I mean I do it. You can also do have the same
effect by basting the turkey a lot but it's literally you know
tenting and some people use a aluminum cooking thing. The
disposable ones to cook the turkey and then you put a tent
over and you got to cook the steam is itself a little more
And now and so far is the second part of the question, which is
the Yes, it is. It is a good sealer. Oh, it works on cheese
and depends I mean I, it's an old fashioned is a very old
fashioned way of doing it before saran wrap and all these other
plastic goods. That's what everybody uses. They all use
aluminum foil for what you just described and it
does work and is Do you feel that it is better than plastic
or No,
plastic is the best. The plastic, you know, this thin
sheets of plastic, the saran wrap, or whatever wrap you want
to use. They're all slightly different as to the number of
different plastics used for these things. Some breathe a
little more, and so he did less chance of something rotting in
there. But the I think the plastics better. But I used I
still occasionally use aluminum foil if it's just convenient.
Well, I find aluminum
foil can and when you aluminum foil can be reused over and
over. Generally speaking plastic, once you stretch it
around something, you can stretch it and it gets all
floppy. It doesn't you can't stretch it again and it doesn't
fit right and you have to use a new piece.
I find aluminum foil to be good for two things outside of these
uses one in a pinch, you can grab a toilet paper roll, cut a
hole, about the size of a nickel, near one end of the
roll. And then you make a little cup, a little bowl of a little
piece of aluminum foil, put it in there with your thumb and you
get a toothpick and you poke or a pin is even better poke little
tiny holes in it. You may want to tape down the edges so that
it doesn't so it's not loose. And you have an instant
marijuana pipe in a pinch. Yeah, yeah, I can see that as very
handy. And of course I use it as a hat. Yeah, no, I
was gonna say suggesting a year or two uses. Yes.
And then to wrap up our tech news here, the head of the US
Patent and Trademark Office has said he said this on Thursday,
the agency is giving up on their plans to establish rules,
requiring greater transparency about patent ownership instead,
leaving the issue open to Congress. Yeah, there you go.
When it takes up legislation aimed at so called patent
trolls. This was a deputy director Michelle Lee was
recently nominated to the agency to do nothing, apparently, yeah,
that would be her job. And so I do not like the name, patent
troll, I find that very offensive to patent holders. I
am the first one to say the patent process does not work.
But it used to work and used to have a it certainly seemed to be
good or was a good idea.
Well, the day that allowed software to be patented, it was
the day it went downhill. Well, I swamped the system. It made it
impossible for real patents to like really get it get a good
look. It swamped the system, it ruined everything. And before it
happened, and I remember when it happened, it was in the believe
the early 80s. Late 70s.
I'm sorry, go on. I'm listening.
I'm just saying when it happened, everyone said well,
you can't patent software. This is just ideas. It's like
patenting. Two plus two equals four. Oh, you can't do this
patented. You can't have four. Two plus two has to be something
else. But that is for patented it.
I feel software patenting software's like patenting a
poem.
That's just that, yeah. No, it used to be covered the same way
as a copyright. Yeah, that's copyright software.
And I think that's valid copywriting software, but even
then routines and, and simple. To what, to what degree then you
get into almost like what sample of a copyrighted piece of code.
Well, that's an accordion, the idea was to originally was
copyrighted to prevent people from just lifting code and using
it, but that but that's how the fight Wait, let me finish. If I
had an algorithm that made the point a move to point B. And I
wrote it in C plus, plus, you could, you could look at the
algorithm say, Okay, I can't use this because it's copyrighted,
but I'll just rewrite it in JavaScript. I think that's
legit.
Well, not only that, the whole the whole point. You learn code
by copying it and we're really talking about scripting, in this
case, not compiled code, but that's how you learn that's how
we build that's how the best programs are built is Hey, Oh,
this guy wrote this code. This is fantastic. Let me prop plop
that in. And it works. Have you documented and Sim sala been?
It's become very complicated. That's why I like the
it's the whole thing. The patents were originally designed
to protect the little guy. Today's patenting of software
code does just the opposite. It's only to protect the big
companies. The little guy has been thrown out of the bus.
Not on not even under the bus was driving and just through
through the guy out on the pavement out the little guy yet
support you We're independent software developers people that
is that is the message here and that wraps up technique.
Everybody
phones a landline and the phone should be made out of Bakelite.
I have one story is is the clip egg news?
Oh, hold on a second. I was not prepared. Yes, here we go.
Several states are unhappy with California's new law concerning
the sale of eggs starting in January. The state will ban the
sale of eggs that are laid by hens kept in small cages. The
law requires out of state sellers to comply with the new
standards. Yesterday six states filed an appeal of a federal
judge's ruling upholding the ban. Those states say the law
will cost their egg farmers hundreds of millions of dollars.
Wait a minute, explain this to me what's going on here?
Well, you know most eggs that you buy who buy cheap eggs you
don't buy from a local guy nearby.
So I'm sorry, we buy our eggs exclusively from farmer Chris at
the farm. That's
the way to go. Yeah, and most eggs if you go to Costco and you
buy their age, you get like 18 eggs for a buck. You know, and
it's easy these eggs that are I wouldn't
I wouldn't buy those. Most people buy them
because they don't know the difference. It's just a shame
but they don't know the difference, especially people. I
don't understand how anyone in a rural community where you have
like you say this farmer guy and
that's a farmer guy farmer Chris he listened to the show guy,
Farmer farmer
Chris but he has a exist chickens. If you're in any rural
area, the United States if you drive around, you'll find eggs
for sale because people have a lot of chickens. And when
chickens lay too many eggs for people they can Dave's end up
selling them and that's the eggs you want because they have
actual flavor. Yeah, but no most people buy the Costco A's and
these cheap eggs and buy the cheapest egg best price. And
that's what they use. And those eggs always come from these
facilities that have a chicken literally imprisoned in a small
little cage that the chicken can't even stand up in and then
just and they have they cut their beaks off so they don't
have to worry about them picking themselves or anything so they
got no big cage and then they changed the lights to go on and
off and on and off all throughout the day. So the
chickens think it's a day has come and gone and they lay an
egg a day and for about a knot in about a year and then they
take the chickens out and butcher them because they don't
want unproductive chickens and that's the way most eggs are
produced in this country. And that's what the California some
where along the line got a hair up there asked about this and
said no more of this. And now it's going to be a huge I don't
know if it's because they hate eggs or they don't want it I
don't know what the rationale for this is. I'm sure it was a
do gooder behind it but I'm not sure
well so but so it's a good thing is we're trying to educate
people not to eat shit.
Yeah, yeah, no, I
think it's a good thing and that's good. No, I boy do I
taste the difference. Oh,
oh no, it's good egg are really uh you know yard egg or whatever
you want to call these eggs that are these chickens lamb all over
the place. The white actually tastes better than the yolk from
one of these. These farm chickens in the little cage.
Oh absolutely are tasteless. I won't even eat I won't eat one I
just won't eat one I'm not interested.
And then the yolk is like a really light yellow. And then
you're making them sick
just thinking of stop Yeah, most seriously. Oh man.
They don't even hold up in the pan they just make it big
generally and
they Yeah, and the yolk breaks really easily there's no there's
no structure to it. No no strength I just got byli my
throat God now it's farmer Christmas eggs are nothing if
you're ever in Austin on a Saturday go to Republic Square
the farmers market go to find farmer Chris. tall blonde surfer
dude. You can't miss him with eggs is like that's pretty
obvious. surfer dude eggs. And given that in the morning. Yeah,
it was always given in the morning and you'll get a big big
smile back.
Now I have one clip of bad acting.
Oh, nice.
And this is actually a clip that was on CI s The show where this
you know the original one of these detective stories that has
all new people that everyone's gone to have. They have the
blackface guy playing one of the characters and I'd like
to set this up for a second. We haven't done this in a while and
throughout the seven year history of the show. We have
done this from time to time where when you listen to acting,
and you don't have the visual. That's when you really hear the
bad acting.
Yeah, this is much better visually and this woman actors,
she looks like she can act but when you just listen to her
she's doing a bit where she she says something to this. She's
being interrogated for a crime I'm, and here's your bit is to
go. Kind of like she says something goes yeah, yeah,
there's some screwy and it's it, it makes for an interesting
dialogue, but this is about turns out, the woman is a
Wiccan. And so they're either slamming the Wiccans, or, you
know, the female witch, and she's a witch, and there's a
big, I guess, a coven in some school. And they go on about,
well, it's not important to us what you believe in, and I don't
even know what that means. But it's a bunch of pagans, and this
is back and forth. And I just thought this was a good case of
bad acting and kind of, like snide writing.
Misses just dandy. You actually think I heard Turk nonsense,
really?
You are sleeping with a student? who's now dead, murdered in your
school?
Not sleeping with Turk My God. We have your fingerprints
on the inside of his car windows and your DNA on his condom from
the backseat. Do I need to go on?
Tour with a team? She was perfectly legal. Israel
did your husband find it real? Your marriage your job you had a
lot to lose.
Every day I play pretend. I pretend to Pelican sports
matter. I pretend not to resent the fact that I'm a failed
interior decorator. But mostly, I pretend to not know that my
husband's having a weekly tryst with a stripper named tangerine.
Now I did not kill Turk but I can tell you this. I would kill
to bring him back.
Did you know that the Turks blood was removed from his body
after he was murdered? And that suggests a Wiccan ritual or
spell and that suggests you Holly
you people secret shovel your shirt dig deep for Coven said
that we'd be persecuted.
I don't care who or what you worship. I just care about the
truth. I didn't
kill Turk you said that the killer took Turks blood. Yes,
that's right. Her High Priests thought that my relationship
with Turk was was a threat to the Coven your high priest and
loss. The janitor.
Make it stop. And the writer also needs to be shot. A
stripper named tangerine or a stripper named tangerine. Yeah.
What? Yeah, no, no. This show is still on the air series. Yeah.
It's astonishing.
This is horrible.
This is horrible crab stripper named tangerine. Yeah, yeah.
I got some bad acting for you. And well, here's a bad acting by
Hillary Clinton. Don't let anybody tell you. You know,
it's corporations and businesses that create jobs. Yeah. You
know, that old theory of trickle down economics? That's right.
That has been tried. That has failed. It has failed rather
spectacularly.
Yes. One of the things my husband says when people say
well, you know, what did you bring to Washington? So I
brought arithmetic.
Yeah, companies don't create jobs. Wow. Really? Okay. She and
she's now on the Elizabeth Warren train.
Well, you have to assume that she has her people watching
Elizabeth Warren closely. And so they're saying what is working
for Elizabeth Warren, we have to use some of these some of this
stick that Warren is dreaming up. And so they're doing it I
think this will be they look more alike than different at the
time that they throw their hats into the ring. I agree or their
bonnets or their
whatever babushkas. Hey, John, thanks for seven years,
seven years, seven active thank the listeners for seven years.
I'm
just thanking you first, then now you're on your thing.
I appreciate that. I thank you for seven years. But the
listeners if it wasn't for them, because of our producers, we
wouldn't be here doing seventh anniversary show?
No, not at all. So we must be doing some people like Yes. And
one day we'll figure it out and really get big. Yeah, yeah.
Onward to the next seven. Happy to do it with y'all. And
welcome to the seventh anniversary party on the
Thursday show because we do have a lot of people that came in
after the midnight deadline. And so we'll thank them on Thursday
and we hope a few more join in
indeed we will We're in self imposed quarantine and FEMA
Region six, celebrating the seventh. In the morning,
