Where's the FBI? Adam curry,
John C. Dvorak. March 26 2015 time via Gitmo nation media
assassination episode 707. This is no agenda, grooming the
shoemakers, kids and no shoes. broadcasting live from the
crackpot condo in downtown Austin Hay House and FEMA Region
six in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry
Nan from Northern Silicon Valley, home of bird doll. I'm
John C. Dvorak. Kill.
John, I gotta tell you, I have to die. For eight years now. We
have spotted trends. We have successfully deconstructed
mergers, acquisitions, government influence, and yet we
have never been able to capitalize and corruption. Yes,
we have. If I was a stockbroker, I would listen to the no agenda
show to pick up stock tips. Because we really do identify
these trends well in advance. Yeah, the problem is we never
ever do and we never act on it ourselves. No. jinxin
times the food company controlled by Buffett's
Berkshire Hathaway and private equity firm 3g capital, buying
Kraft creating a food giant in the process. Other more deals to
come from Berkshire Hathaway and 3g in addition to Heinz
Berkshire help 3g finance the Burger King acquisition of Tim
Hortons last year we all know that Warren Buffett loves food.
Coke is one of his favorite companies. There's been
speculation that maybe one day Berkshire and 3g could team up
to buy Coke Buffett as we know for a Fortune interview, he
loves to eat like a six year old Coke, Dairy Queen. Now you can
add mac and cheese. Okay, to the left.
Yeah. All right. We have been in fact that was your you started
at all about mac and cheese being the depression food. One
of the most astute investors in in the universe. Warren Buffett
heard the call. He knew that mac and cheese was the future. And
the price the price spike of the stock price. Yeah, you ready?
Okay. Yeah. 33% That's a good upon news of the merger please.
You slaves can get a mac and cheese macaroni and cheese
melted together mac and cheese mac and cheese mac and cheese.
Mac and cheese, mac and cheese by iron Rand. Maybe we can ask
Andrew Horowitz to just maintain a blind portfolio. And all he
has to do is just listen to the show. And you know, whenever we
say something like, you know mac and cheese is the future. It's
true. It's true, though.
Yeah, it was true and yeah, true as well. Yeah. We should also
mention that since I mentioned Bergdahl Burke Beau Bergdahl.
We're the I believe the first people that recognize that he
was a deserter. Because before the story even broke, just as it
was breaking. We had our
our producers Yeah, everywhere, exactly.
That were in the camp and told us the whole story. And then it
further evolved after. After they, after he was praised by
Susan Rice for being a great patriot or whatever. She said.
Crap. And she I mean this proving that she shouldn't be
even working for the government.
You know, do you know who who used to work for her, which I
only found out do some investigative work. Okay, Ted
Cruz's wife Wow, she's a she's a regional manager for Goldman
Sachs. But she also worked at well, she definitely worked
directly for Susan Rice.
And what capacity Ah, well, I wrote it this is this is
incestuous incestuous as
well the thing that I found is another hour sleep I would have
got the word but is this an incestuous message you know
sleep well? No, I
slept fine. But it's apparently I didn't where I'd be quicker on
the draw when it came to the you know,
the show so right. Let's just stick with this for a second
because I found this very interesting to see how the how
television let's just call it television became you call it
news or mainstream just television. That's easier how
television respond to television. I like it how
television responded to Senator Ted Cruz announcing his now he's
running for president.
Which a big news to you down there in Texas.
Yeah, but the but the thing I like what was this to us the
most was on the view. Now which I do not watch with any
regularity you apparently did however, it is I think a fact
that this a lot of people watch this program and will form their
opinions and derive their news information from these. Let me
see retarded morons I think just I want to put two together for
these people in particular will be Goldberg oh god of course the
idea is is to discredit Ted Cruz as you know, crazy tea party guy
birther nut jobs and believes that you know, the Earth is only
2000 years old whatever they can pull up is done then I
personally I find this offensive not because of Ted Cruz because
I find him incredibly creepy. We've discussed this but he's
not dumb by any means. Very, very successful lawyer
prosecutor, Senator and the connection with his wife and and
the banking industry. He's no slouch no slouch, he I agree
he's icky, icky, icky
spaces and put together properly.
But I find that offensive if somebody says hey, you know
what, I'm gonna run that you're ridiculed right? I mean, the
first thing someone should say is hey man, thank you for
considering to contribute it's a shitty job. But okay, here's the
view and they got it so wrong on so many things that I figured we
just have a little listen to this because this will no doubt
this will pop up and in discussions around the water
cooler at work in in Texas to especially in Austin. This is
the the the line that the view is taking and they have one
Republican girl on on the show.
Yeah, they always have the one gratuitous Republican
blonde, you know, all American girl. She's not density but you
all America, but she's
she's blonde. So thus, you know, yeah, a Republican.
He was not born in America. Okay, so this is, this is very
funny. He was not born in America, Ted Cruz. Now listen to
that. I'll tell you exactly what the Yeah, they're all
preoccupied with this. Yeah, yeah. But it's, I mean, it's so
simple to five minutes, and you know exactly what his
eligibility is, which is eligible. But let's just listen
to these. These ladies. In Canada. Yeah. So how long have
you run?
They said Canadian.
He's a Canadian. They say she's not but okay.
She said she was born in Canadia.
Oh, maybe she did. Let me say that again.
He was not born in America. He was in Canada. Yeah. So how long
did he run?
Don't get it? I don't get it. I don't get it. Tell you what
happened to you. Some producer said you know what's really
cool. He was born in Canada. So you can talk about this on the
show. And they wrote Rosie Perez is a guest and anyway, but it's
without any research without any background that just doing the
least of his problems. Oh
by the way, when you girls do that, it sucks balls. No one
knows what you're talking about. Stop that.
The Republican Party, there are people that Republican Party who
feel like Republicans like me have not been tough enough. And
he speaks to them. I'm a Ted Cruz. birther Yeah,
I want to say that him not being born in this country is the
least of his problem is insane. I love
your darling. But Jocelyn, I love you, darling. This is where
she turns into a dick. I love you, darling. I'm from Brooklyn,
birthers.
And all of that stuff. They made it where he was born and I never
asked for but I mean Well, this came out it has come up before
for this very week yours
will be who was reading the notes that the producer gave her
before we
producers must be doing this as a goof. Can you imagine
producing this show with these dimwits?
Well, I think they probably do the right thing. Just give him
this and let them run with it who gives a crap they can't
stick to anything. Anyway. Just a moment here on the on the
United States Constitution Article Two section one no
person except a natural born citizen or a citizen of the
United States of two different things. A citizen the United
States or a natural born citizen at the time of the adoption of
this constitution shall be eligible to the office of
president neither shall any person be eligible to that
office who shall not have attained at least the age of 35
years and be 14 years resident within the United States. So let
me clear it up very quickly. A natural born citizen means you
are born to a number of different classifications you
can have both American parents in wedlock both American parents
not in wedlock. One parent in wedlock. One parent, not in
wedlock. Either way, Ted Cruz to an American mother who was
living in Canada for the, for their job, right. And he became
naturalized, which do you have every right to do? 2005 which
completed the 14 year requirement. But being born to
it'd be crazy if you have you have American parents and
they're living in, in China, and you're born there that you're
not American, or even one of the two parents. So it's completely
stupid. But they're running with it.
Because you know, he's one of the people said, well, he
shouldn't have President. Well, huh,
what did you just say Whoopi? Why did she say what she's
trying to do? She's trying to say Ted Cruz was a birther,
which he added to my knowledge wasn't I don't believe he was it
but she's trying to say the rules a president listened to
it. It's really good. This is This is classic top notch
television reason,
because, you know, he's one of the people said, well, he said,
I'm president. Well, hon.
And now she's gonna do something really outrageous. What he wants
to see your birth certificate.
Listen to that, John, the future of the country is these hooting
and hollering.
I know the audience is.
Mixed, gentlemen. Right,
you you're a mixed gentleman. Oops, here comes racism.
You are mixed. I want to know, are you talking for the Cuban
side? Or the white side? What are you talking about? See now
when we turn it around? It's not very nice.
This is incredible what she just got away with. She's saying that
Ted Cruz is a racist, and then she's being racist on him.
What's sad, you talk for the white side of the Cuban side.
Wisco Tango Foxtrot? Five. This is no good.
Yeah, I heard this particular part.
Let me just finish 22nd.
Luckily, luckily, we have better stuff to concentrate on than
where you were born Ted, but do know that we are aware of some
of the things you've said and maybe being Cuban as part of it.
I'll give her I'll give her that. But some of this is
ignorance.
Yeah. Your ignorance you
do she say specifically nothing that shows ignorance
on nothing. It's just you say Ted Cruz and people. This is the
division that has been carefully created over the past? I don't
know. Let's just call it two decades, very carefully created.
So we have red and blue, black and white. A Republican
Democrat. saddening.
Well, that's why the party system stinks.
Yes. Also on television. I love watching Richard Quest. I just
can't get that image out of my mind.
You know, I saw a quest because I saw when the plane first we're
going to talk about the plane. Yeah, of course. I I saw the
early reports into CNN, which I recorded a bunch. I didn't clip
any. But Richard Quest was there. And he's now he acts a
lot different than he did when he was wild. And crazy. You
know, he's screaming all the time like a maniac. And how did
you become their aviation?
I know exactly how I know exactly how, because he was the
first he was doing a business show, which is more for CNN
International. People who are new to the program. If you do as
a little search on Richard Quest, CNN. The reason why we're
chuckling is because it was a few years ago, he was arrested
in wasn't Washington Square Park, I think in New York, they
remember the middle of the night and square in the middle of the
night and he only had a trench coat on and boots. And he had
like a was it a belt tighter up from from his genitals around
his neck and he had a he had meth on him and then you know,
the cops arrested like, I got meth on me and I got to deal
though my boot. He's like, Oh, okay, fine. This is the expert.
It was a rope. Not a belt. Sorry, rope. So I'm all for
kinky sex, but it's just hard. I just want to see
kinky sex.
Who knows what he was doing? It's not even fun. What's a rope
around the neck tied to their balls? I mean, come on. So he
was doing a business show where he was traveling all the time,
and he would profile airlines I met him when they opened the new
upper class back when I fly that fluid, upper class lounge for
Virgin Atlantic and Richard Branson was there and he was
doing a piece and flying. It was always the first flight to
somewhere biodome a direct flight to some Asian country.
And so he has contacts with All of the airlines that you know,
certainly with the PR department, so, you know,
therefore he is now an expert. He has no license. He has no
flight experience, but he's an expert. And sometimes, you know,
he makes sense, but he just the problem is this is
like in the setup late 70s and early 80s when they needed to
find a computer expert in some companies, and they asked around
and whoever owned the apple to you're in, was the computer
expert all of a sudden running it. Exactly. Yeah.
So I do have a quick What is this 37 Second background or
learning new details now about the deadly German wings plane
crash in the French Alps. The New York Times is reporting that
evidence from a cockpit voice recorder indicated one pilot
left the cockpit before the planes descent and was unable to
get back in. According to the Times investigators said quote,
the guy outside is knocking lightly on the door and there is
no answer. And then he hits the door stronger and no answer.
There is never an answer. You can hear he is trying to smash
the door down when senior military officials reported
saying we don't know yet the reason why one of the guys went
out but what is sure is that at the very end of the flight, the
other pilot is alone and does not open the door. So there's a
number of things that I take issue with with the reporting
and and the top issue is there's no information whatsoever
everyone's making the crap up and it seems the New York Times
jumped in pretty early leading the way are indeed leading the
way with I find a news piece. See, here it is Germanwings
pilot was locked out of cockpit before Kristen here, this is the
piece from from the times, journalistically bad, really,
really bad.
Well, before you go on with your analysis, which will conclude
this discussion, I should get a few clips in your because I
don't I won't have a conclusive anything. And my clips are all
from the Rachel Maddow Show.
Wow. She of course, also is an expert in rope and genitals and
math and dildos. So she can certainly wait
and bust the myth now. Whatever the case, of course, she blames
bush for this.
No bite of it. Oh, wow. Crap. He's my analysis when you're
going to roll this out on me.
Rachel with the bush memo, which is she puts she places pretty
straight but you can you can hear her viewers thinking dad
bush that guy wasn't thinking clearly.
For reference and for context here. This is the press release
from the US Federal Aviation Administration that was released
in January 2002, specifically, January 11 2002. Four months to
the day after the attacks of 911. This was the press release
in which the FAA announced mandatory new standards for
reinforced cockpit doors in all commercial passenger aircraft
authorized to fly in the United States with more than 20 seats
on board. The FAA is new rule announced four months after 911
required newly strengthened doors that quote resist
intrusion by a person who attempts to enter using physical
force. That new rule required cockpit doors to remain locked.
It required an internal locking device so that it can only be
unlocked from inside the cockpit.
Also not true. Just factually incorrect. But okay.
All right. Now we go with just a couple of hysterics here. She
has to be loose Derek once in a while. So let's play Rachel
supposes Hi, Jackie, this is your theory.
No, she's got his hijack theory good.
It is conceivably possible. I suppose you want
to think happened with her? Well, maybe I'll play this only
for 12 seconds and I'll tell you
it is conceivably possible. I suppose that a hijacker could
have entered the cockpit. Once one pilot had stepped out and
then overpowered or killed the remaining pilot and then that
hijackers who deliberately crashed the plane that is
as likely as me being able to fix you have your lesbianism
All right. That's what she's she's I suppose, she says I
think she does. Now she does her kind of a Nancy Grace imitation
with some hysterics Oh,
no, if it is the pilot who wants to crash the plane who has
locked himself or herself inside that cockpit? For if it is a a
healthy pilot who was locked out when the copilot inside the
cockpit has died or become incapacitated or who has gone
nuts? In that case, then this rule about that doubly
reinforced doors that resist all physical force. Then that rule
could be a death warrant.
You know what she's missing? Although she'll never say it.
Guy was 28. Maybe he was on Chantix to stop smoking. You're
up there. Yeah, but that's Not my theory or my conclusion or
anything, he's
out of the way. Okay, so let's go. I got one more these other
two questions and answers are things to test for later. That's
for you. It's a just a new ask Adam.
Oh, I'm gonna be tested and graded on my on your
ability to listen clearly. Anyway, here's where we're now
this is finally Rachel brought brought this guy which after she
went on and on and on this guy brought in a new fact, or he
believes a protocol. He's seems like an old pilot has been
around forever. And I wouldn't he said this, it was funny to
watch her kind of try to reformulate her crazy theories.
Another part of this that I'm puzzled about is that protocol
for most airlines says that no, at no time is there only one
pilot in the cockpit, that somebody else should be with
him, it may very well be a flight attendant that comes in
and sits there. So there are two people in the cockpit at all
times to take care of emergencies, like the ones that
we are speculating about now. So I'm curious to know if there was
another person there. And if we can hear that person's voice or
their entry into the cockpit later on,
in terms of that rule, or at least that protocol in the event
that a pilot had to leave to use the bathroom or do any other
normal thing. And a flight attendant was then introduced
into the pilot to sit with the second pilot who was still
there. What would that pilot that flight attendant, for
example, be expected to be able to do presumably they'd be able
to open that door but also to ensure there were no shenanigans
in the in the cockpit?
Obviously, would be capable of opening the door. What else goes
on in there? I cannot tell you a puzzle right now. No,
I'll tell you when the flight attendants are on the flight
deck. That's when the shenanigans start. Ladies and
gentlemen, that's when it all starts. You'll recall the the MH
370 crew had chicks up there taking selfies. Yeah, remember?
Yeah. Okay, so the first thing that I just find noteworthy is
that very much like the Boston bombers and where there's a
apparently a damning evidence of there was the knots kind of
generally accepted there is no such video of the sort it's not
enough brothers in particular, the younger one putting the
backpack into the trash can moments before it exploded. Then
even the governor said oh, yeah, so I guess I haven't seen it but
I'm reliably informed. So now we have all based on one report
from the New York Times which of course is the the paper of
record we have this report as they speak to this is I think we
just go through the words of this particular times piece for
a minute to really understand because they are the times not
stupid they're not going to let themselves get busted on really
shitty reporting. But here we have an investigator named we
don't know from what country what agency said evidence from a
cockpit voice recorder indicated one pilot left the cockpit
before the planes descent and was unable to get back in then
they have a senior French military official involved in
the investigation again no name this already is no good. But
okay, because it's not official described a quote very smooth,
very cool conversation between the pilots during the early part
of the flight from Barcelona, Spain to Dusseldorf Germany then
the audio indicated that one of the pilots left the cockpit and
could not reenter here's a quote the guy outside is knocking
lightly on the door and there is no answer now right there how
does anyone know from a voice that audio recording that the
person knocking was the the captain we don't really did just
making that up we have no proof other than someone knocking
there's no answer then he hits the door stronger no answer
there's never an answer. And you can hear he's trying to smash
the door down now it's okay to suspect that it was the captain
and the first officer was alone in on the flight deck. But this
is there's no proof of what is being said
here. You know in this morning's New York Times they've altered
the story a little bit Ah, okay, I'll just tell you what it is so
you can work it in yeah the late it be and I think it has
something to do with this the reporting that came in original
reporting of no the reporting that came in from the outside
from the pilots, like this guy that we just listened to about
the protocol where you're gonna leave you're gonna put somebody
else in there to sit around and may you know, do whatever they
do. As you you indicated the New York Times had to deal with that
and so now the way the story goes, and this is the this
morning, the co pilot who was suicidal I guess, or something
because he was he pushed them by he got the pipe pushed him out
and slammed the door shut before the other person could get in.
Yeah. Which of
course we didn't really hear, I guess. No, we didn't hear
anything. So in this original report, we don't know the reason
yet why one of the guys went out The use of the word guys said
the official who requested anonymity because the
investigation was continuing. Okay, sorry, this is wasn't
their point, John, where you had to have two sources on record
for you to really publish a story?
Well, that would that's you can publish the story with no
sources. I mean, you can tell you that, yeah. York Times has a
policy. And the policy is exactly what you say. You have
to have a yeah,
this is gossip. Yeah, there's no one on record at
all. Just put it under blogs, well, or the gossip blog,
or the the multitude of what used to be kind of cool pilot
forums, it was all infiltrated with dickheads. Everyone's got a
dumb question or a dumb theory.
I don't want to go off just off the track here, because this is
going to continue. But this is really getting on my nerves.
Almost everywhere you look, I was I'm working on trying to get
that to, I've got this new machine I'm running, which is a
beautiful machine. It's got display port out as 400
DisplayPort coming out of this thing, and it's got a mini
displayport regular display, Port HDMI has gotten none of the
other DVRs or any of the other fashion. Now the display ports,
your drive three monitors. And so you get to buy special gear,
you buy this little piece of gear and you put the two months,
two plugs into DVI plugs. And you get to two monitors. And but
it gives you an extended desktop.
Oh yes, you can move to a different. Yeah,
I get it. I don't want an extended desktop, I want two
monitors. I don't want two monitors have the same thing.
The old fashioned two monitors where you when you you have
monitor one and monitor two. So monitor one does most of the
work. It keeps all the stuff there on that monitor monitor to
slide stuff over to it. It's like an extended desktop, but
it's not an extended desktop. And there is a difference. Go
online and try to find out how you can change this. It is
impossible. You have any it's John? Oh, I see what you're
saying is Oh, buy a Mac. Yeah. It's just never ends. Okay, I
got and I see
what you're saying? Yes, it's a little more frustrating when
you're in a, you're talking about a very specific industry,
that there's really only I think there's only five or 600,000
pilots worldwide, or this helicopter I'm sorry, worldwide,
there's more fixed wing pilots, but it's a small group. And the
probably the worst are the the private, the private pilot's
ppls, who have you know, Cessna experience. I'm not saying that
I have any experience on this type of aircraft. But I, I've
hung out a lot with maintenance. And, and understand a lot of how
the mechanic I buy I owned a helicopter company. So I
understand the mechanics of how the business works. So they
mean, really this whole thing. So it's a 24 year old play. And
it's all they're all cretinous stop. We've been to that a
million times. Yeah, that, yeah, every single item on aircraft
has a lifespan, it has to be replaced. And before that it's
documented people are personally liable and responsible, multiple
people sign off. The only two reasons for an aircraft incident
are human error. And maintenance. There really is
nothing else. So if you get struck down by lightning human
error, you didn't check your weather report. Okay, that's
that's the level it's only those two can only be those two. So
the New York Times continues with an interesting sentence.
The data from the voice recorder seems only to deepen the mystery
surrounding the crash and provides no indication of the
condition or activity of the pilot who remained in the
cockpit. So now they're saying that you could technically say
yes, the recorded sound on the voice and the cockpit voice
recorder is data. But the next sentence is the descend from
38,000 feet over about 10 minutes, which is just that just
making numbers up how long did the sound was, I think that's
wrong, by the way, was alarming. By whose standards but still
gradual enough to indicate the twin engine Airbus A 320 had not
been damaged catastrophically. But they're just this has just
been like a rumor. We have no idea there's no data. Now the
thing that bugs me tremendously is and I believe that it didn't
even find the flight data recorder yet but very quickly,
we found the flight data recorder and the memory card is
missing. Oh, okay. In the show notes view, we'll find some
technical specifications for the A 320 and it's flight data
recorder and I just want to tell you that there is no there is no
memory chip. It's not like what you put in your smartphone your
being your camera, because that's that's the visual that
was given. I really don't like that in my reporting. So the
memory board which contains multiple stacks chips with
backup is surrounded by in order from outside in steel armor
insulation. Thermal block and then we get to the memory board.
And if you look at what these what these things can handle I
haven't hit 7200 G forces and I tried to calculate and I'm sure
we have producers in the maybe in the chat room but certainly
in the audience who could help me calculate if you are flying
around 350 knots and you come to a complete standstill because
it's the G forces are calculated by feet per second and all this
stuff and the weight that will be very important or because
typically the flight data recorder doesn't get crushed by
anything from the aircraft that kind of springs free I think it
was well under the 7200 G forces I believe it would seem but now
so apparently this thing popped open the steel armor insulation
thermal block popped open and the memory chip just popped out
I'm calling big bullshit on that
high dive guests are all on their hands and knees looking
for it because that of course we imported as such in the New York
Times
Yeah, well I think it's in the New York Times. You see here it
is a Baba French people in discussions or teams Catana that
is not an oh here at the crash site is senior a senior official
working on the investigation said workers found the casing of
the planes other so called black box the flight data recorder,
but the memory card containing data on the planes altitude
speed location condition was not inside apparently having been
thrown loose or destroyed by the impact or disappeared. But I'm
I'm not buying that this is an open flight data recorder. Oh,
and the memory cards popped out. It's not. It's not how it works.
This is not how the thing is constructed. So the New York
Times is full of crap regardless of what really happened. So we
have no real data we have one person who tells who told the
New York Times and even the French or the German prosecutors
who were doing these was a friend prosecutor who were doing
these these press conferences. They're even saying well I
haven't heard the the cockpit voice recorder myself. This is
just this doesn't ring true at all for them to come out so
quickly. Yeah, that was damaged we were still able to get some
sound off of it. But there was no timecode Come on. Come on.
This is unacceptable. The this is not being brought into
question. So I don't think that well here's the possibilities.
First of all, this whole lockout of the door is a big red herring
and I love it when looking at switches and you absolutely can
get back in yes, if the if someone on the flight deck does
not want you to come in obviously they can fort that but
it doesn't really vibe with and jive with all that we're hearing
of this guy just sitting there and they could hear him
breathing apparently as we're now going in a word. We're
descending at 4000 feet per minute, but you can hear the
book of the guy breathing very nice. So there's only a couple
of things I believe that coming out right now saying this was a
suicide is a lie. It's very dangerous to even unless you
have a reason for to just come out and say all this suicide
this guy did it based upon things we had no idea about
wide. Why on an hour and a half flight does someone need to get
up and go to the restroom doesn't happen often. But you
know if you gotta go, you gotta go. Sure. Maybe the not having a
second person on Deck is not mandatory. to that. Not
necessary. Not necessary, but we really don't know anything other
than what someone told The New York Times he heard on the tape,
which he might not have even heard himself but okay, so what
can this be? First everyone's saying, decompression we? We
cannot know. I'm not a fan of Airbus. We've talked about this
I don't like the composite called a plastic airplane.
Please don't email me and say the perfectly safe I don't care.
I don't like it I like sheet metal and rivets. I certainly do
not like the fly by wire system the Airbus 320 Really one of the
first planes to be completely automated you talk to a computer
every fright flight input every control input goes into the
computer the computer then controls the the the aircraft
and we have to remember that this particular I don't have the
clip, but this particular model the 320 is the one that crashed
at the Paris Air Show. Well there's yep they were doing a
Staz some sort of a almost land takeoff stunt that the plane
didn't like by according to one side of the story and it crashed
into the bushes just past the runway, and the pilot was blamed
for the whole thing even though they some lot of evidence
indicates that the plane itself drove itself into the into the
bushes. Yes. Now I have a an incident report from November
5 2014. This is So, what aircraft was this? Well it's a
it's an Airbus 320 And this is the flight safety foundation.
Here we go during climb 12 nautical miles northwest of
Pamplona been approximately flight level 310 So that's close
to where they were at was 7000 feet lower, the aircraft
unexpectedly decreased the pitch autonomous and started to
descend. The aircraft reached a rate of descent of up to 4000
feet per minute the crew was able to stop the descent at
flight level 270. So they they dropped a good one not as much
as this other they went from 31 to 6000 feet but it was a a
sudden thing that the aircraft just did by itself. The flight
was continued aircraft landed safely as destination Munich
Airport following this occurrence ESA released interest
new flight crew procedure which is as follows and occurrence was
reported when Airbus aeroplane encountered a blockage of to
angle of attack probes during climb leading to activation of
the Alpha protection Alpha prot, while the Mach number increased
flight crew managed to regain full control the flight and
landed uneventfully that is disturbing when aircraft start
to do these things by themselves. So that is one
possibility that there was a malfunction with the aircraft
that was unrecoverable. And all of this cockpit noise is just
completely made up by someone leaked in New York Times have
some authority, which is how I would do it. If I don't know if
I was Airbus, and I'm always fighting against Boeing. We've
got the American Senate and Congress coming up with a
trillion dollar increase in in spending. For military we've got
the actual military budget talks are ongoing. Airbus announced
they would they were looking to raise the output of the A 320
This year, going to perhaps 70 Or 80 aircraft a month. There's
a airshows there's orders being placed. Let me tell you in the
realm of this kind of business, 150 people spin the bucket who
gives a shit. So if something goes wrong, not that that no
one's got to kill people necessarily. But you don't this
is a bad time. A very bad time to have anything go wrong with
Airbus the certainly if the fleet would be grounded for
something that seems to be a real issue, I'll give you one
other theory that could have happened maybe if you want to
believe if we really ever hear this cockpit voice recorder, and
I don't see why we wouldn't. But I'm pretty sure we won't. We
were pretty sure it was. The A 320 is also one of several
aircraft who have had issues with cockpit fumes. December 18,
fumes in the cockpit on a 320 Actually, the pilots start to
become nauseous, they threw on their their oxygen masks and
landed and what's happening is hydraulic fluid from a damper
actually your damper actuator has has been leaking, and it
leaks into the inlet of the auxiliary power unit. And we've
been tracking fumes in aircraft for maybe five, six years, this
has been ongoing, but certainly on the flight deck. So you could
say maybe, and that would explain a lot of things that we
don't have answers to or have actually heard any proof of
maybe fumes got in pilot and commands. I'm not feeling good,
I'm gonna go to the bathroom, he walks out, and then possibly the
first officer becomes incapacitated. But that would
mean that the pilot in command who wanted to come back and was
banging on the door that he forgot the code he actually used
to get into to get out and get back into the on the flight
deck. That doesn't really make sense. I think none of it is
true. I think that this is a malfunction. There's something
incredibly wrong with this type of aircraft or maybe with a a
piece of the engineering, which in my mind, they never should
have gotten rid of Flight Engineers. This is what
technology does for you. This is where technology may be great.
But you had three guys on the flight deck, which is always
good because pilots Yeah, they get crazy. They get nutty to
become assholes if you have two guys instead of one and you can
read stories of flight engineers who have definitely intervene
with crazy pilot crap. Um, so not necessarily a benefit to
remove a person if that's why I don't think this will be used.
It shouldn't be used. I think if this is what I think it is to
remove pilots entirely from from the flight deck, because then
you'll have nobody left to blame these shitty airplane crashes
on. That's what I'm thinking.
That's a good theory. There are a number of screwy incidents
that have taken place with a 320 that seem to be computer
related. And in fact, the guy the same guy who was talking
about the protocol on Rachel show he didn't mention he said
that we Your thing to him about the crash was it? It did speed
was never changed, and it was going at full speed.
Well, let me let me stop you there it is my understanding
that there is a a bolus is called a toggle, but I don't
think it's an actual button, but maybe a virtual, you can make
the aircraft descend at maximum VMO. So it won't be coming
apart. And it will actually deploy air brakes automatically.
So you stay below your I think I'd have to look up the exact
envelope to know what to I'll have it here somewhere. However,
it was within the limit, so it was not coming apart. But that's
an automatic descent that that the aircraft can do with one
input from the flight crew, it'll automatically do that.
Well, what he said was somebody had to do something. But the
other possibility that was initial before they talked about
the pilot going nuts, and there's pictures of this guy who
doesn't look like a complete lunatic. In fact, there's a
picture that he posted on Facebook or someplace
overlooking the Golden
Gate Bridge here in San Francisco was that the initial
thing when you have a problem on the flight deck is you you try
to fix it as best you can and that's your number one priority.
And that's what he didn't he believes that isn't the one
possibility reason they didn't check in well here is now if
those other guys
here's the sequence in an emergency aviate navigate
communicate communicate is third, right that this is
drilled in your head at a VA to play the five fly the plane just
fly the plane where am I going and then tell someone what's
going on.
The thing about that other incident that you talked about
where they were all of a sudden the plane decided to do its own
thing these guys resolved it but Was there ever a memo about this
how they did it or anything for other pilots to this happens to
you or they just say well, let's don't talk about
it but that's what I just read is there is now a procedure that
that flight crew must must be trained in so you can only
suppose that they were trained in it. Who knows that now there
have been I did a little scouring around the book of
knowledge. I came up with five previous deliberate pilot cause
crashes as reported. That was the silk Air flight 185 Egypt
Air flight 990 Mozambique airlines 470 Japan Airlines 350
and Federal Express 705 Which
it was a Federal Express pilots that crashed a plane
deliberately
let me see that I got it's all links in the show notes. By the
way if you want to take a look at it here is
this is from wonder I didn't get that package. Well,
at McDonnell Douglas DC 1030 cargo jet carrying electronics
across the United States from Memphis to San Jose. This was
1994 Ahlborn Calaway Thoreau expressed employee facing
possible dismissal for lying about his reported flight hours
boarded the scheduled flight as a dead headed passenger with the
guitar case carrying several hammers and a spear gun. Good.
Also, you know the the merger of or the change of German wings to
Euro Wings by Lufthansa. And these guys were all looking at
pay cuts. And that could be a reason if someone wanted to do
this. I would say Chantix nobody be number one. I still don't
know why the pilot in command left the flight deck and why he
was not able to get back in but we don't know. This is what I
don't want all bullshit. Oh, it's completely there's no
evidence, no data, please let me hear at least the cockpit voice
recorder otherwise, I can't take any of it seriously.
Well, it's really a shame that the New York Times would be the
one to trigger All this gossip. Gee, seriously?
Are you kidding me? No. There's gambling going on here. I'm
shocked. I'm shocked. shocked to find that gambling is going on
in here. New York Times they run interference for everybody. This
is big. This is so big. This. The iAds are borders are called
now the Airbus Consortium. This is big. By the way,
I'll give you a prediction of whether it'll be blamed on the
pile one of the pilots
definitely. And who pops up immediately, Merkel and Alon
together. They're doing they're going to the crash side job.
Nothing wrong here. Of course, they're both in the in the
Airbus consortium, both countries. So to me, it sounds
like we just we need to let everybody know this has nothing
to do with our product. And I think the product is generally
generally safe. But there have been these strange computers
that are the problem. There was a book that
yes, it's called the Unabomber manifesto. So there was a
besides that one reminds me I gotta get to
it. It's linked in the show notes, you can always download
the copy. No, there
was a book that came out that was documenting all these crazy
follow ups that happened to people because of the computer
glitches. Bad programming is what it really is. Yeah, and my
favorites, but everyone, which is the most gruesome one is
there was a CT scanner, which is a massive X ray machine that was
computer controlled for the purposes of this very advanced
testing. And I guess the first round of software is that when
you punch it in and how much read read Dickens, you want to
drill the guy with. If you use the Delete key to back it off,
it just added more zeros.
It's a bug it happens exactly bugs.
So you say Oh, I don't want 10 million I want you know, 10,000
So you pop off three of the zeros, which added three zeros.
billion or something. And this poor bastard got roasted in this
thing.
This is why I'm saying it was not necessarily a great idea to
remove Flight Engineers. If you recall, there was a flight
engineer on every big aircraft. The guy sat sideways and he
monitored everything. Yeah, now. You know, we're seeing
unintended consequences of technology all the time. I
believe this is certainly one of them. I've seen this happen
myself. Well, I was I flew Eurocopter for a while. Which is
a nice craft. But it it's all managed by Windows NT and I've
seen the flight management crash while I was flying the NT crash
it rebooted. So I had effectively a bad there's some
steam gauges so I could know what my end one was for that was
a turbine engine, but had really had no other information.
Everything went out navigation the whole thing. So besides
obviously there's some some standard gauges so I could fly
if necessary. I could fly on that if necessary. But just to
have a computer or flight control system reboot mid flight
is not good. Well, let
me tell you my story. And I think this is the reason that
that people are dropping Microsoft sync. And Microsoft
sync of course is is was put in car so it could do some
entertainment stuff but they will there was no long term goal
is to you know, kind of simplify the vehicles wiring and all cars
to one bundle of network wiring instead of like a million wires
even when there's no reason to have a wire going from the
switch to the to the backlight and then another wire going from
the switch to another backlight and have it is just huge cables.
Most cars have this harness it's called have tons of wires. And
it could all be done by one wire on a network because that's how
networking works. You just have one wire touch everything and
then the network takes care of it. And so this is the long term
goal of autumn Beal engineer because it would save a fortune.
So passengers be damned. So I'm reviewing actually afford SeaMAX
and I'm up in Washington and I'm going to drive all the way to
California and this thing dragging my daughter now with
me.
What kind of automobile is this? Is this
funky looking for it? It's a car that it's actually a pretty nice
car to drive. But it's a it's a Hybrid Hybrid. So yeah, it's a
hybrid. Well, the one that people buy is the hybrid. This
one was just a straight gasoline. Got a good mileage 37.
So even though said 50 Those mileage things are bogus. So I'm
it's Christmas time. So I've got a CD in the player playing some
a song, it goes. And all of a sudden the Grandma
Got Run Over By A Reindeer, I'm just guessing it was something
stupid. And this and everything except the heater thank God is
controlled by this system, this computer that's in the car sync
Ford SYNC, which is actually Microsoft's product, all of a
sudden out of the blue after coming out of a gas station to
thing crashes. It crashes and this and it's just a blank
screen. It's just sitting there and I'm pushing buttons. I'm
trying to do anything I can to get it rebooted. I'm trying to
find out how to reboot it. It won't reboot. But the CD keeps
playing the same song over and over. And we've got 10 hours.
You couldn't shut it off, couldn't shut it off the country
down it was the whole thing was a mess. So I was playing this
stupid song the whole way. I'm getting tired after about an
hour of this and nothing works. But luckily the heater somebody
was wise enough and forward to disconnect some stuff from this
crazy device. And so you keep the heat on because it was
freezing out would have froze to death in the car. So this thing
is going on. So I finally got on the phone and called a couple of
dealers that are on the way down and saying what how do I fix
this thing? Or what can I do to have to come in and say oh yeah,
this and the guy says, oh yeah, this happens a lot. Good work is
terrible. So I'm finally about two hours into this I, I guess
just about 10 miles away from the dealer that'll that'll at
least look at it. It rebooted and started over again. It was
fine after that, and but it took like over two hours to reboot
and this is the this is a does this stuff sucks this
is these are the unintended consequences of relying on
technology. There's a lot of these things that are going to
happen. Look at well, that is more planned with look at online
banking, cash cash being outlawed, and what happens?
Well, you're gonna have little glitches, we'll be all
conditioned to trust a glitch. And you're not gonna have money
and just all these all unintended consequences.
You're not gonna that's gonna happen a lot. Yeah, where's my
money?
You know, the friendship just put a rule in you cannot pay
someone more than 1000 euros in cash. It used to be 3000. Now
it's 1009 for terrorist terrorist funding. Uh huh.
Really? Well, that's what they say. Yeah. I have it right here.
War on Cash. Yes. France steps steps of monitoring of cash
payments to fight quote, low cost terrorism. So from
September onwards, people who live in France will not be
allowed to make payments of more than 1000 euros in cash down
from the current $3,000 limit. 3000 year old limit. Any cash
deposit or withdrawal over the limit will be automatically
signaled to the truck thin anti fraud and money laundering
agency you get a knock at the door your own money you can't
use your money. The thing of another
thing that kind of backs up your theory there's another thing
that guys said that Rachel expert he says that the Airbus
320 is kind of self aware and it's pretty hard to crash it so
even if you flipped that switch and started to drop it would see
you would notice because it has radar that there's a big
mountain ahead and it would avoid crashing it does it does
that it doesn't like to crash tries to protect itself for the
benefit of the company that's what he said Yeah, and I know
they don't a lot of these planes you know you have these it'll do
stuff that you don't want to
here's the one here's the one thing I believe that these guys
were actually heroes and flew this thing into the mountains
they did what they could so it didn't you know, there's nuclear
reactors that are not far certainly if you're coming down
from 38,000 feet there's their populated areas where they
really pick the best place for you know, total disaster to put
that thing down. They even apparently turn towards it
because when you do aviate navigate communicate the first
thing you're doing is making sure you can fly the plane if
you can barely fly it okay where am I? Where's this thing going
to go down and then on the way you start to make calculations
the not the not communicating part I don't know.
Yeah, who knows? Well it would come out in the wash this is all
speculation is too much of it this is no speculation is
grading is our backup
yeah but it's no speculation on our part because I'm right up
front we don't even know if this this recording is real and why I
made
it I mean the news is calculating like crazy racial is
talking about guys going crazy terrorist jumping in the front
seat. Yeah on the planet flight from Barcelona to Dusseldorf
there's a there's a good one and then
that'll really get people's attention.
Yeah, let's go Alright,
do I have questions and answers I get to do here anonymous.
Well let we get to your Are we done with the ER discussion?
So bottom line when there is some actual data from well from
the missing memory card? He could see some some kid walking
around there in the Alps Heidi? Oh put in a camera bullshit
bullshit is not a it's not an SD card.
Oh look, I get free memory holy crap 128 gig is afford this car
when
we actually know something I'll be happy to happy to give you
some information but just the way this was done with unnamed
sources highly ranked anonymously to the New York
Times with with assumptions such as it was the other guy banging
on the door. Smells of a big pot.
Bullshit. Alright, so this is the new ask Adam segment.
Does that mean we play a jingle for Ascot him? Yeah, I think we
should do a little one. Yeah,
yeah. What's your this is Rachel, this is part of one of
her. This is either about the air bus crash or Bergdahl. I can
read one of the two but it's not just beside the point. I want
you in clip one. This is one question. This is the Rachel one
question. I want you to play this very short clip and tell me
what she says. Okay, these new sales
Hold on, bro. Get another one other guy. These new sales these
new dude tails, these new tails, new tails these new tails? No
she's saying something new tail she's saying something else NUDE
NUDE these new tails, no idea why you put it while you're
leading the witness, I am a stop and be quiet on tails, new tails
nude. These new tails. These I'm gonna stay these new tails.
All right now play that
telling you guys yes, I'm just guessing that was wrong,
and I'll play the bigger thing so you can catch context and
maybe understand what she tried to say
emphatically that NBC News has not independently confirmed
these new sales that have been provided to the times.
She was to try and say New details.
Yeah, yeah. Okay, I'm sorry. But But that leads me to the second
part the second part of the quiz. This is a infomercial for
our country western song set. And you're going to hear Charlie
pride. kibitzing with crystal Gayle
Oh from brown eye blue. I'm gonna make my brown eyes blue
eyed girl
beautiful song. Yes, she is says something and then they cut
right to Tammy why knits chest and tell me that she's not
saying what I think she's saying here.
Country music crossed over to the pop charts as radio stations
across America played the newest hits
there's a new direction. She says with new she says numerous
hits and new tips the newest
they played it played again to teach it's clearly says new
tips.
She says newest tips. She says new tips. New tips. Alright,
remember I haven't there's a new direction.
Country music crossed over to the pop charts. As radio
stations across America played the newest hits
the new she says the newest hits.
Oh newest, newest new new or newest. Now? They play Tammy
winning Yeah. She doesn't say newest hits.
No. She says newest hits. She says
newest tits.
Yes. Is what that's what's clearly on her mind is a
Freudian slip.
Yeah, I thought so. But you think they'd edit these things
out? Isn't that a live show? No, it wasn't live. It was a it was
a bull crap thing. They you know, one of those paid paid by
the hour.
But they couldn't because they already had the track
underneath. You can't separate that when you do it again. So I
understand. I understand how that works. And it's fun, then
it's let's face it. It's funny. Where I'm sitting here in the
control room like she said, yeah, keep it in. So we burn
that and I'll keep it even keeping us good. It's funny.
It's funny.
All right. I'm sorry I went this way.
That's okay. Because we're that and it's time for me to thank
you very much for your courage and say in the morning to you
John C where the C stands for cockpit voice recorded Dvorak.
And in the morning to you Adam curry also in the morning all
ships as he boots on the ground feet in the air subs in the
water and all the Dames and nights out there in the
morning to all the newest hits in the chat room. No agenda
stream.com Thank you all for being here. And depleting your
$9.2 million value. Lifetime value that is in the morning to
Lind Hartson. Lind Hartson did the album art for episode 706
And I think what was this another one we were not sure
what we're going to do? No actually I think we were we were
spot on we were agreeing scrubbing was the title. Oh yes.
The Islamic State group logo right. That was good.
Well we had I also use the Martin J J art for I believe the
Evergreen piece for the newsletters was yeah, it didn't
do that. Well Melissa newsletter that was pretty lame. I
guess I didn't think it was lame.
Didn't do didn't. Didn't people didn't go oh, oh, these guys.
And so we ended up with like, No, we got one. We actually have
one by default. The Baron AJ rice that who had actually
donated your show 700 and wanted a foreword of a second because
it was a double you get double credits. And so he got his
second credit, and he I don't see that he sent us a note.
She'll who caught it.
Now he emailed and I forwarded the email to Eric. Oh yeah, you
were copied on it. Don't worry.
That somehow I missed it.
He did LIFO and it worked for me. So yeah, that's good. Well,
okay,
good. Well, let's start with Baron AJ writes that who
contributed 707 Nice show 700 and B and also gets credit for
show 707 becomes remember the 707 Club Yeah, Caldwell, Idaho
no jingle requests but a birthday shout out for the
following human resources would be greatly appreciated. He talks
about his wife of 10 years Peggy on the 28th of March her
daughter Katie, who turns eight on April 2. All right, and then
Aries our son Nate, who turns five on the 14th of April. So
Aries on share rams. Again, thanks for that. By the way,
this is the year of the ram from Chinese New Year. So you get
this is the good one, you get the double hit. Again, thanks
for this special consideration for granting dual credits for
future episodes. If it only if only for me, it seems. Then we
have an executive producer named anonymous for 5678. No Name or
location, he says. Those are our two executive producers. That's
it. Yeah. And then so she's only got two of those lintas His wife
said the newsletter didn't do anything. Linden hairy Darwin,
north, the North northern territories Australia 200.
Thanks for the great show from Darwin. Go and then Dame
Francine Hardaway from Phoenix 200 And she says I want my bad
science and perky breasts please look up my balance like to see
if I become a baron.
She She posted something on Twitter. I think he said if I if
I make Baronet tests do I get bad science and perky breasts
and I've met David France. He just weird when women say they
want perky breasts. It's weird. I felt uncomfortable answering
the question. But Francine, we're happy to to do an
investigation once you have your title.
Yeah, we'll
just let me know where you use. Let me know.
And that's it. That's all we got. Thank you very much. I want
to remind people, we do have insurance. What is this? Today's
Thursday? Today's Sunday. Today's Thursday is on Thursday.
On Sunday, we got a show, which is a short week, which so we
have any input like this again, it's going to be crap. And we
would hope people were more enthusiastic about the show.
Since we're doing stuff nobody else does. I made that point
there.
Yes, that was the that was the newsletter did so well, when you
made that point. We also still have our Fletcher Fest on deck,
this is a special donation amount 314 15. We will have a
big a big who how mix of all the different shouts, he did already
send me that
we're not going to do this forever. By the way, if it
doesn't get any more traction, we're just going to end it. So I
do have by the way will mention I will apologize that did not
get to the post office box on time, okay? It was closed,
because I know I had to go out to Fry's to get gear to get this
double monitors to work. And I go there and nobody ended up. I
said, Well, I can't get the questions I want to answer on
line because everyone is the answer to everything apparently
is buy a Mac. Yeah. So I decided, well, you know, they
have people that help desk at Fry's. And there's a couple of
different ones. Nobody knows anything. DisplayPort is a huge
mystery. In fact, I wrote a note I just will be a complaint by
the way for a while. So I wrote a note to the display port.org
Folks, and I asked him about this problem abusers because
they have a they have a fac on their website because display
port is the way we're all going to be stuck using these
machines. So they have a huge fac 90% of it. Well, I this is
an exaggeration, but too many questions on the FAC as though
people are going to ask this question is, Does my display
port 2.2 or 3.0? Mate does it make sure that the copy
protection works, so I can be assured that I can't copy
anything from the video stream so I so it's all the copy
protection works. Like anybody cares about that. Except that
people that are putting out copyrighted stuff, right?
But I don't know you lost me five five minutes ago.
I just wanted nobody knew anything at Fry's either I
just wanted to play the Fletcher shots that we have now we're at
Fry's,
I'm sorry it's just as a thing as did so I didn't get to the
post office because that was so
these will be it's okay it's okay it's okay these will be
made available. We had Ron pepper who got that one and
pepper also wanted a Rebecca as well. Really bad guy. Got a good
one. And then the way
his voice cracks that makes it so entertaining and then we have
Tim nonnamous
tell us that so the way we're gonna, this will not last
forever. We'll have all of them available. Hopefully one of our
sound mixologist will make a cool mix of it all which I'll
put them all in a bin and everyone can grab them,
particularly for nameless pepper or Rebecca as good as Fletcher's
also expanding? They're gaining weight. No, he's he's done a new
form of Jingle. I thought somehow he did this. And I think
he nailed it. I wanted to discuss with the review board,
if the review board the full Board agrees.
Ha, Akbar, oh, Ali Akbar.
Somehow the way that Akbar comes in, I just thought was cute. I
played it
sounds like Appu at the end of the
lesson, I liked it. It's kind of cool. All right, thank you very
much to our executive producers and Associate Executive
producers for supporting the program. We do need more help
for the Sunday show. We're working on a better newsletter,
I guess, to remind you of the things we do to actually help
but there's also in today's program, a lot of producers
stepped up with the knowledge because they are in certain
industries. So that is coming up. The vortech.org/edie that is
the one vo rack.org/and Of course, we always need people
out there doing the credibly important work of propagating
the formula.
Our formula is this. We go out we hit people in the mouth
Amen. Shut up. Yo, yo, yo. Oh, all righty. Well, you got
Bergdahl to talk about I mean, yeah, I'm
glad you're doing that because I completely glazed over. Once I
heard the charges. I'm like, Okay, we were right about that.
And just left left for what it was all right. What do you got?
I got nothing. Just Bergdahl clip. I got the Bergdahl clip
and I don't do we could talk a little bit about it. And we're
done. Now more
on the case of us Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl. He has been back in
the US since being released by the Taliban last year in
exchange for the transfer of five Guantanamo detainees to the
nation of Qatar. Soon after that deal, some of the men who served
with Bergdahl came forward and said they believed he deserted
his post this afternoon at Fort Bragg North Carolina Army
Colonel Daniel King announced the charges against the soldier.
The US Army Forces Command has thoroughly reviewed the Army's
investigation surrounding Sergeant Robert Beaudry burgles
2009 disappearance in Afghanistan, and formally
charged Sergeant Bergdahl under the Armed Forces Uniform Code of
Military Justice on March 25 2015. With desertion with
intent to shirk important or hazardous duty and misbehavior
before the enemy by endangering the safety of a command
goes on and on now. Now what ensues to me is the one of the
funniest things I've ever seen on the news hour and something
everyone dreads they've apparently giving him a given a
block to
see block Oh, and then they can't fill it for some reason.
Well, they can fill it so JUDY WOODRUFF I guess was sold a bill
of goods on Berg doors attorney coming on to Yale for who was a
dud this comes on in he's also a kind of arrogant, a whole will
do really just kind of guys scruffy beard, and he's just
like a professor Oriole type of is apparently Yale Law. And
here's the way it starts. This is part one.
And with me now is Eugene Fidel. He is Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl is
a lawyer. He is also a scholar in law at Yale University.
Eugene Fidel, welcome. We know Sergeant Bergdahl got the news
while he was at Fort Sam Houston, Texas. Was he expecting
this charge? What was his reaction? Well, I can't tell you
what his reaction was because that would be breaching the
attorney client privilege.
So I'm just here to promote my firm and
firm. This is this. This is what his whole thing is. And she just
is irked by this, obviously, he won't even say what did Bergdahl
wink? Oh, I can't say that because he had an attorney
client privilege. So he goes on like this. This is his whole
thing. She got nothing out of him. So she decides to drop a
little bomb on him. And this is that, to me, is the only thing
she could do to actually kind of get at the guy.
Is he guilty? Going to go into that I've made a point of the
time since I was asked to represent Sergeant Bergdahl of
not attempting to try the merits of the case in the media. I'm
going to hold to that rule if you don't mind.
She just said, is he guilty? Yeah. This guy, you might as
well throw that one out there because that norm I've never
seen her do that ever.
It is it is indeed one of the worst things. And this is part
of the problem. And even though I sometimes think to myself
self, would it be great if I had producers here to write stuff
and collect stuff and clip stuff? And then I think to
myself, self? No, because it would suck because you have to
do twice the amount of thinking what's on the clip was I didn't
hear it, how it ended? What's the head? When you do everything
yourself? You don't run into these things. We would know if
it was shite if she had done her own little pre interview or
whatever with the guy. She would have known.
I don't know why she did. But I think she was off site and she'd
Yeah, she doesn't do pre interviews. I think I was off
site. So
why you bring this up, there was another interview, which is
doing the rounds. Excuse me. This is at the one of the former
Greenpeace guy who is now a consultant to was a lot of GMO
stuff. He see a merman to see if I can find this guy's name he
was being interviewed in France about but I think he was there
to promote this golden rice. And we've talked about this before
the golden rice with the vitamin A, which is going to save the
world of overpopulation. I'm just cutting to the chase.
That's what they're saying. That's really what they're
trying to tell you. So this guy is there and he's consults for
Monsanto, Patrick Moore is his name. And there was a report
that came out which I have not, not gone through detailed in any
detailed fashion yet saying that Roundup Ready the the main
Monsanto herbicide, insecticide, insecticide, no herbicide
herbicide, okay, that does not kill their genetically modified
seeds. Right? You know, Bill Gates, and these guys are trying
to spread all over Africa, because then we will own the
continent.
Well, we've been trying to kill off the Africans for some time.
Hello,
they're annoying. And they don't I have stuff on that, too.
Anyway, so I do. So he, so the the interviewer does something
really, really interesting when this guy is pontificating about
how safe Roundup Ready is.
I believe that glyphosate in Argentina is causing increases
in cancer. You can drink a whole quart of it and it won't hurt
you. If you want to drink some we have some here. I'd be happy
to actually. Okay.
You can drink a whole cord and it won't kill you. And the guy
says, Oh, you want some but got some right here. Yeah, I'd be
happy to
not Not really but I know it would not really, if you say so
I have some guidance. I'm not stupid.
versie says
a great interview. At first he says you can drink it. Anyone
would drink it?
If you want to. Or you have some here. I'd be happy to actually
not. Not really but I know it wouldn't hurt you. If you say
so. I have some guidance. I'm not stupid. Okay, so you know,
but I know that's dangerous. I know people try to commit
suicide. Fail fairly regularly. Tell the truth. It's not
dangerous to humans. No, no, no. So are you ready to drink one
glass of No, I'm not an idiot. interview me about Golden Rice.
That's what I'm talking about. Okay, then finish except then
the interview is finished. That's a good way to soften.
Yeah. You're a complete jerk.
You're a complete, complete jerk.
That is a great idea is it's borderline Clip of the Day, but
it's just why? Why wouldn't I give it to you? I think it's
because I think these kinds of things go on a lot all the
time. Okay, I'm an idiot. You're a complete
jerk. You're an idiot. It's good.
Well, this does come amidst a whole bunch of news about, by
the
way, let me Let's stop. If a guy comes on and makes a blanket
statement. You can drink a drink a quart of it, and you won't
even have a sip. What are you doing on the show? big boned.
That's
why he left he knew he had nothing left to do there. You
sucked.
But they here's another thing that people should be aware of.
You're gonna go on a show and pull a stunt like this. For one
thing you're dishonest to begin with. But if you're going to
leave the guy, say hang in there with your and you're not in
there. All he's going to do is rag on you. Of course, that's
what I would do. This guy would have only had one guy. When I
was doing I was doing real computing, I think was the show
or software Hard Talk one of the two. And I this was during the
early days of the mp3 era. And I had skunk Baxter on with who's a
very interesting character and himself. Isn't he a bass player?
Now he's the guitarist in guitars. And yeah, yeah, Guitar
Guy and his into his manager. And his manager was this guy. I
don't know what was wrong with the guy. But he was just yelling
and screaming like a maniac about people stealing music. And
it was it was crazy to the point where you couldn't ask him a
simple question without him yelling and screaming, we had to
kill the interview. We just killed it. We never had never
ran. And
I've had some tough interviews in my time you run into these
guys and or the worst, of course, is the guy who doesn't
say anything.
Yeah, I had one. Bryan Adams who was a huge fan of Bryan Adams.
And finally it was going to meet him interview when he was on
tour, which, you know, that's why I give him some leeway many
years after the fact but I was like excited, you know, like,
cool. Talk to Brian and he was a total dick. It's like, Borden
answer anything. Yeah. Just glib.
Those who I've always included you don't want it this whole
discipline models terrorism's so I got another story.
Let me I want to move on with Monsanto. Okay, going oh, I've
started we're still on Monday we're still on Monsanto that's
better because we have a jingle you know so we're gonna play the
jingle as often as possible and they should be licensing that
from us by the way it's a great
sound it's as good as say something say something Yeah,
it's just as good in fact they are they are right next to each
other in the on the jingle pad
perfect interesting on Bill Maher's over time which is the
only real thing you want to watch from that stupid show.
Then he I had a whole bunch of knit weights on but that one
woman I know who she was she was talking about how many children
she had and this is this is the defacto thinking of this is why
you see a lot of population control just nutty stuff. Bill
Maher really wants to have less children killed I think he wants
to ultimately kill people off the planet Earth and I listened
to this and
she had shown him the natural way but I think it was always
for less babies being born because we do not have a
horrible bill that's horrible. I'm a mother of five kids
shouldn't be
super selfish in a world Bursa? Absolutely. They will be
contributors they'll be takers of water we takers of water and
resources
in the rate the birth rate in the United States is a continues
to decrease at least the slabs are providing some extra kids
here and there well we don't need so there you go. And Irish
and German does not have enough resource. What do you mean come
on What is your problem
on the best podcast this could be fingernails on the blackboard
for those of there might be a few Democrats in the audience
just a few
genetically modified less water less fertilizer, less land you
can see a world of 9 million people which we're closing in on
but we get great resistance just to have an intelligent
conversation about it. And I think that's part of the
solution to the world population and Monsanto children are not
synthetic
telling you there's a there's a move there's a push and it's
it's no bueno
something's up with Monsanto well here's here's the here's
the well before you go on I tried to stop the clip I don't
think you can hear me not know it was what is it that guy said
he used the term and then it reminded me was that human
eaters are useless eaters
Yeah, that's who said that the useless eaters that was a
candidate different
version of the same thing that was that was
Prince wasn't Prince Charles I think was Prince Charles who
said that
I don't think so.
I'm pretty sure Hey, useless you know we do when we did
That's disgusting. I mean, some people you know, I don't know.
I'm trying to see useless eaters.
How is it selfish to have five Henry
Kissinger apparently I'm just reading now I don't believe that
either. Urban Dictionary term implied in national security
study memorandum 200. Written by Henry Kissinger basically
implies there are too many useless eaters consuming
valuable resources would be better used by a reduced world
population. Well, it
did Bill Maher and Kissinger the same thing. But it led company
Mar
but it is happening and there are now approved well listen to
this report.
Hey, Getting a new line of biotech fruits and vegetables
containing the
quite the way that biotech I like that better than GM biotech
fruits and vegetables that sounds so, so
sounds cool trendy
colonies most humans want indefinite use and perfect
aesthetics now,
most humans want their food for indefinite use and aesthetic
appearance. Fuck nutrition,
most humans want indefinite use, and perfect aesthetics. Now the
regular apples we're accustomed to eventually turn brown after
being sliced open or when rotting but the Arctic apples
approved by the FDA have been genetically engineered to stay
crisp and resist any kind of discoloration. So the fruit of
temptation will look flawless for hours or even days after
being sliced open. Meanwhile, the GMO and meat potatoes
approved by the US government will be altered to resist
bruising when fried they will reportedly produce less of a
potential carcinogen. Now advocates say keeping the
produce flawless will cut food waste and make the apples and
potatoes more appealing. But amid growing backlash and public
concerns surrounding GMO foods, some experts believe consumers
may abandon apples and potatoes altogether. The US government
claims that genetic Arctic apples and innate potatoes are
as safe as their conventional counterparts, but there's reason
for the public to be skeptical. In 2013, the US assured the
public that the widely used weed killer known as Roundup is safe
to use without unreasonable risk to people or the environment.
Yet last week, a branch of the World Health Organization
released a study indicating that an active ingredient in Roundup
can probably cause cancer, Monsanto, the world's largest
producer of GMO seeds, and round up dismiss the who study as
inaccurate and dramatic.
Now there's something called the cartina protocol. But I think
I want to before you go there, I wouldn't want an apple apples
have oxidized that's what happens when you cut one open
the surface. You know, is it living product and it's alive?
Its food, its food for the seeds to plant. It's a growing thing.
And it's it does things that naturally and did I'm sure these
apples are nurturers like eating, you know, there's
probably no like
you could eat a tennis ball or whatever the same nutritional
value might even be tastier, they
taste similar. I don't believe from it the problem that they've
always come up with, I mean, McDonald's has been breeding,
you know, certain kinds of tomato that that holds up better
in his stores veteran is firmer. But these things have no flavor
and zero flavor. Every once you are confronted with a real
tomato, which is you pretty much have to grow your own. Unless
you're in an area that has good farmers markets. Then they go
what is that it
looks ugly, but has all kinds of lumps on it. That's no good.
That's
not even the lumps is the flavors. They don't love what
the flavor they you know, there were a segment of the population
that was bland food. They want a bland potato and a bland piece
of lettuce and a bland tomato and a bland potato. It's
ridiculous.
Anyway, I'm sorry, I'm in total agreement, total agreement.
And you know, they never breed they're gonna they're gonna
breed this is going to breed that they never breed for flavor
ever. I've never heard of one product ever, ever genetically,
I should say genetically modified for flavor. They I
never heard of anyone saying oh, here we found a flavor of flavor
gene. Let's put it in this in this bud. Maybe the taste of
more potato II know they never do that it 2003 168
Nations adopted the cartridge things Cartagena Protocol on
Biosafety, which puts the precautionary principle as
primary. Ie if you've not sufficiently proven safety of
genetically modified organisms and other bio engineered crops,
protection of human health is primary, not the protection of
free trade, which is what this is really all about. Once the
protocol came into force, of course, we had huge lobby and
African governments and institutions were lobbying hard
for GMO crops to be accepted with minimal safety assessment.
And the USA ID is of course assisting the economic
communities in Africa to develop policies aimed at doing anything
but ensuring biosafety and business and the USA ID Hello,
the Belinda gates people you know, they they're big investors
in Monsanto.
Yeah, yeah, that in Corrections Corporation of America and some
other things that have nothing to do with vaccines or malaria,
right.
And so they're all over this because of course, the trick is
once you got the seeds in which are patented, trademark
copyrighted, etc, then you're stuck. You can't get out. Yeah,
you you're with that you're with Monsanto. And even if your
neighbor does it and stuff blows over you're with Monsanto or
you're arrested for stealing their valuable seeds
as they have patented their contaminants yeah
they have they've patented nature is beautiful thing
well this is like an issue in India where there's a people are
killing themselves all the time of suicides left and right
because they get stuck into one of these downhill spirals of
these crappy sees that they can't reproduce themselves the
natural way I used to always be done you'd grow something and
then part of the crop would be used for seeds for next year.
Yeah. And no, you can't tell you have to relicense every year
with Monsanto
you have to realize is that you can't even have to attend to
Caesar or you have to come right from Monsanto can't even use the
seeds that you made. No, they should be able to fix them and
oh, they should just theirs. They should take well just
having people aware of what's going on is important. I think
that's that's the well done there farmer farmers markets and
we've got a hey, you put in your body what you want. Yeah, you're
gonna get voted off the island eventually. All right, let's
roll into some caliphate.
Link, crap map. So we're still trying to get the author's
authorization of use of military force. Some changes up on the
hill as to the wording. But first, I would like to play a
little bit of retired commander of AFRICOM, the United States
Africa Command, quarter ham.
We are headquartered again. I forgot in Italy, I believe.
Yeah. Italy makes nothing but sense.
A quarter ham I believe. Was he the one who gave up reportedly
gave a stand down order to go and save our ambassador?
Oh, yeah. He was in on the he was in on the scam.
He has a good consulting gig couple of consulting gigs. But
yeah. But he has something to say about something he has
absolutely no knowledge of whatsoever, which always makes
it funny. So his job is to now respond and explain how
terrorists been compiled this hitlist of military personnel,
we've discussed these things before sub that a hit list of
800 I think family names of these are the military
personnel. That is ISIS ISIL are gonna go kill. And we should all
be really afraid instead of what we usually do. But they do this
through very, very evil ways in social media. And when you hear
a guy like Carter Ham talking about social media, like he
knows what he's talking about. pretty hilarious.
General ham, I want to talk to you about these threats to the
family specifically, and you just heard Chairman McCaul talk
about it could be possible they could carry out those traits.
What does that do to a military community?
Martha is very disconcerting, obviously, to the families, the
specific families that were identified in this in this
release, but more broadly across the armed services, to know that
those who engage in social media that that information now can be
corrupted and used by a terrorist organization to
threaten in worst case, what they hope to do is inspire or
motivate someone here in the United States.
Here's I went, General Carter, we got a gig for you. Oh, cool.
What is it? How you're gonna go talk about social media and
less? Okay. Did my talking points? Yeah, here it is. Yeah,
they can manipulate the information you post on social
media, no problem. I got it. I can wing this
to attack you use the term he used a term corruption or
corrupt he
can you can corrupt the data, how he's just full of crap. He
has no idea what he's talking about. That's why I liked it
or motivate someone here in the United States to attack or kill
these these service members or their families. And I have to
say that let's,
let's review. Let's review.
As this happened, no, oh, no. But
they found a list. They catch a guy trying to do it. They found
a list.
They found a list. Yeah. That was written a list themselves.
This could be bullcrap.
Do I have to play this gambling clip every single time or? Let's
hear that little bit
again, that that information now can be corrupted and used by a
terrorist organization to threat and in worst case, what they
hope to do is inspire or motivate someone here in the
United States to attack or kill these these service members or
their families. So
by posting on social media that can be corrupted, so they come
and kill you. So slight lead. Just Just bear with me.
And I have to say that last night when this first came out,
I went on Facebook to see if I could find those people that
they talked about very easy to find. The Defense Department
said, clean up your social media. I went on again this
morning. And some of those pictures were still public and
those names on Facebook accounts showing they're in the military.
Oh, I suppose you would say get that off social media as well.
Yes, the Department of Defense has been very active over the
past many years of reminding service members and their
families to be very cautious about the information that you
put on social media, disabling your geolocation, being very
circumspect about the location of the service members, for
precisely the reason that has now played out. And I worry that
this increasing sophistication by this, these Islamic terrorist
organizations, to manipulate social media to their own ends,
is a very worrying trend.
very worrying trend,
let me mention something. So the most popular show on television
is NCIS. NCIS has been NCIS has been all in their spin off shows
not so much. Especially NCIS LA, which seems to have its own
agenda. But NCIS is all in on whatever the government is
telling him to write. I think they're one of the members of
the leer Foundation, Hollywood script writing. So
the last show and this last week that was about people using
social media too much. And then so there's some woman in disarm
services talking about they're not they're not going to be
home, allowing some burglars to come in and rip off the place
because they've she the woman is always posting the husband was
in Afghanistan, and she was posting left and right when she
was at the beach. And so they came in and meanwhile, some
terrorists found out about this was expected to find her getting
home or something. And he she had to kill the burglar. And as
a terrorist, it is a convoluted story. That actually didn't make
any real sense. But this is all this, this anti social media
thing is getting steam in the regular mainstream dramas. I'm
going to ask you since you're the one that brought this
subject up, why? What's going on that they want? These they want
us all to be more circumspect with our social media.
This one? Well, I think I started the segment off by
telling you why is that we are working on the author's there,
which is my next clip, the authorization on the use of
military force against is at the same time the budget is be put
is being put together, we have three budgets, one from the
President, one from the Armed Forces Committee that I have all
these listed somewhere. They vary, but in general, they're
we're moving towards almost $700 billion annually for the
military budget, which is an increase along with the
sequestration removal, which will result in a trillion
dollars more spending. It truly is the only economy we have.
It's what we do. So we need to keep the people stupid and
afraid. I think
this has to do with these shysters like Richard Clarke and
the others who are trying to shoehorn in on something that's
not necessary, which is cyber. Yeah, well, that's the military
department.
Oh, yes. Well, we know the CIA is setting up a full cyber
department like, here's, this was an exchange, if you get
bored of it'll stop, but it was Moulton, not sure where Moulton
from talking with Ashton Carter, then Dempsey pops in. And this
is about the specific enduring. The time period for the
Authorization for Use of Military Force, I'm gonna say
AUMF. So you'll recall that in the actual proposal, I think I
have it here. The actual quote was the that this will be an
enduring operation enduring offensive ground combat
operations. And we of course, looked up the meaning of
enduring absence, we had Operation Enduring Freedom, we
pretty much know that it's at least 13 years, but they decided
to change this. And they put us in the proposal for this AUMF
they put in a big change with a sunset clause of three years.
Which is interesting. And listen now to Carter. And I thought was
pretty funny how Dempsey comes in the leprechaun, with a
supersuit. What that really means, because Does that mean
we're really going to stop? Because we can't have the
military industrial complex actually thinking that it's only
for three years. We need this to go on forever.
The time limitation has nothing to do with the length of the
campaign. It has it. I cannot tell you that the campaign will
be over In three years, I don't think anybody can tell you that
the that feature of the am AUMF is included. For reasons that
are not military related. They're related to the fact
they're derived from the fact that we will have a new
president.
So what he's saying here is this three year thing, that's only
because we have a new president, not because it's the ISIS is not
going to be beheading people
in three years. And the AUMF provides for a new president,
and for that matter, a new Congress to revisit this issue.
Now, that's not something that comes from the Secretary of
Defense, or I would say from, from our thinking, but we
understand, you know, God forbid, and respect it, it
derives from the way the Constitution regards Use of
Military Force as a very grave matter in which the Congress and
the executive branch play a role. So I understand that I
respect that. But the number three doesn't come from the
campaign. It comes from our political system. And again, as
I understand and respect that, and I hope the result of all
this is an AUMF, that tells our troops that we're behind them in
this fight. That's the key thing, to me, in addition to
having the flexibility to make to carry out the campaign that
will win. One of the one of the questions I had was the
hostility would the if the hostility doesn't say anything
about the termination of hostilities,
at this guy, he's trying to make the point he's using up all his
valuable time, when he wants to hear is whether he wants it to
be said or whatever. I'm not sure what side he's on. He wants
to hear that, oh, this three years. It's just that's just for
the new president coming in, we will probably up the whole AUMF
and have no more stuff. Yeah, it's gonna go up, up, up, up,
up, up, up up here. We don't want it just to be stuck in some
that think they actually realize they made a mistake. Oh, man, if
we put enduring in there, but we can't go back and change it to
put more crap in. Right, we can add
more money to this budgetary year period. Is it your feeling
that hostilities could continue, and that we could have actions
against ISIL beyond the three years as currently written and
implemented? General? My military experience and judgment
suggests that the answer your question is it will likely
extend beyond three years,
likely my military experience, dude, I'm a disc jockey, I can
tell you it's gonna last longer than three years. Come on. This
is what we this is the economy of the United States of America.
This is never ending this what we do any wastage? I said,
China's gonna attack any minute.
Okay, there's a need for a rescue mission. When the world
is threatened. The world needs help calls on America.
And that's the story. It's fun to play one more piece of this
clip where this guy asks a question, and I thought
Dempsey's comeback was pretty good it could it extend
could hostilities extend without a new AUMF by a new by a new
commander?
If I understood the question, the the enemy gets a vote, as we
say, and how long hostilities extend? I don't I actually don't
understand the question.
What the hell you're talking about son? No way.
Well, you always want to preface your and government hearings. If
you're anyone goes and does one. You if you can preface your
answer with some doubting commentary about you didn't
understand the question, which is that way that you can be
called out
and it certainly gives you time to think if you need it. Well,
it does that too. But the main thing is you never can perjure
yourself, right ever. If you say if
you say something like that. There's also I'll go along with
this. Almost this report MIT Technology Review. They showed
data mining Twitter data reveals the origins of support for
Islamic State. And somehow I'm now supposed to believe that the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology,
oh crap
has the Shah, the has, has really checked out all of these
accounts and the people behind them. And therefore has been
able to come over here to the sub head studying the pre
Islamic State tweets of people who end up backing the
organization paints a revealing picture of how support emerges
through social media. Doesn't inappropriate selfies have been
set up? Sorry, wrong one. I wanted to play the social media
song. The inappropriate selfies and that was never that's not
it. Oh, here it is. We have just to get everyone's ear going.
Hey now y'all can we just get real? Do we really care about
our fans or is this just another deal Said another way that we
lost our way alright everybody is about to get ready people to
be really good another life painters share so we need
another posters everywhere I hope that we scattered that we
never forget
this is the song isn't this when we come on here we go
social
perfect All right, well that reminds me there's a segue this
is this gonna go no further. No. So we have at six the birthday
of the famous poet beat poet who is something of a character in
Lawrence Ferlinghetti very famous beat poet from the 50s
and 60s. I had his 96th birthday and you explain
a beat poet is that when you instead of clapping you snap
your fingers?
Well, you you go to a coffee shop somebody be reading some
you know dry poetry. You'd be on the bongos and
be on the kazoo
you'd be on the bongos listening while drinking cappuccino and
probably stoned on reefer black turtleneck. black turtleneck,
right you look like
stoned on reefer
and listening to the guy read the poem. So but we anyway
Froning Gettys owns the city lights book shop, which was
opened years and years ago and it was in his still in San
Francisco. And he's got some complaints about you know, the
latest thing going on. And so here's what he says.
Today San Francisco is better known as a central hub of the
tech boom, a city of entrepreneurs and companies like
Twitter that have become international giants. And while
that move is credited with driving unemployment to an all
time low, it's also blamed for rapid gentrification, making the
city unaffordable for many. And that rankles Berlin getting
a new brand of dotcom millionaires. And generally,
Silicon Valley money moved into San Francisco with bags full of
cash and no matters.
That pace of change Ferlinghetti says has quickened beyond
control.
Okay, I get it. Yeah, he's right. Cash, no bags full of
cash, no manners. There's no manners, they're all douchebags.
And so this you know, he's an old guy from the area and you
know, he says there's a birthday should show some respect. But in
the in the manner of Oh, get a Mac as commentary, and by the
way, this is going to be our probably our ultimate demise
will be the similar kind of reaction from the No manners,
casual callous a holes who have taken over the place you get
this what you end up with,
of course Ferlin Gettys is not the only view of San Francisco
these days. When a version of this story was posted online
recently, he did draw support, but there were a few strong
blast as well. What a crank wrote one person. The city is
still as vibrant and creative as it ever was. Except now young,
ambitious people are in tech, another wrote in 60 years. I'll
be complaining about the new crop of San Franciscans fogies
gonna folk.
Oh, it's ageism. You're a crank. You're a fogy. And fogies gotta
folk Yeah, get
the Fogata here.
Anyway, I just thought that was a little insight into the area.
nobody actually knows who this guy is.
But once the once once the money runs out all these everyone will
be broken gone.
Oh, no, it does bound to happen. I've just witnessed it.
I wish twice you've seen it twice. I
think I saw it at least twice. I probably didn't notice it at
least one more time. But I saw it during the CD ROM ihraam Yes,
we're
multimedia multimedia right that's it that's the we're gonna
have magazines will be on disk multimedia
multimedia boo
HyperCard just before the internet natural mind director.
So you could buy all these different discs and have a
credit some interfaces on these days. Fantastic. And
what happened? The web happened boom.
They got wiped out and they were all singing the blues and then
we had.com one. What was the point?
John? What was that? There was a standard that came out around
that time for what To the device, I felt like multimedia.
There was some device a bunch of standards that came out. There
was an actual box that everyone was really excited about that
went absolutely nowhere. Don't come to me. I'd have to think
about it. Yeah, it'll come to whatever the
case was. That was wiped out, then the dot commerce were wiped
out in the some years later. Not that many years later, but 10
years later, and now we have this new boom, which I don't
even know what the basis of it is. But it's a huge it's the
biggest of the three. And these guys are going to get wiped out
too. But this time, they're building to an extreme in San
Francisco. They showed it on this thing, apartments going up
everywhere. They're not like the New York apartments, which are
you know, the 50 $60 million of an apartment apartment, which
has become a big deal by the way Norman Lear is in one of those
fancy ones z i
see the
I see a CD and thank you void zero CDI.
I remember no
apartment complex in New York City that's that took over as
the place to have a place which is 15 Central Park Central Park
West. And but I think they typically 30 million 40 million
for a have an apartment or a condo there condos, your biome.
And your buddy Norman Lear, who has been in fluid trying to
influence the television operations so that everyone has,
it's all liberals. I think most of you will live in these places
are liberals. We pointed this out before Norman Lear has a
place
right there. Right. Yeah, Central Park West. How do we
even get on that?
I was talking about curling get a is getting no respect. And 96
year old man being called a crank?
Oh, well, I think it's very interesting. You know, things
always centralized decentralize, the cycles come and go. And we
were at now I was watching some of the f8 the Facebook
developers conference yesterday, they stream that live. And then
it was all their thing. There was a Dutch girl who was doing
kind of like hosting and stuff, she was pretty good. We had a
she had a real heavy accent, but they'd never put up a below or
throat. I couldn't figure out who she was, was actually, she
did a pretty good job. So I'm watching this. And the big thing
now is that Facebook is saying, you know, if you news
organizations, if you really want to succeed, you need to put
your news into the Facebook feed, make it native to
Facebook. And I know, certainly a number of big media operations
are going to do this. And I and I just because you know, God
forbid, you have to click on a link and it opens a tab or a
browser and do that too much work. By the way, I want to say
one thing about iOS. I'm okay with you having the twitter
facebook app people. It's okay for me if you open up in your
own little browser thing. But then at least let me access my
bookmarks. So I don't have to open in Safari. It's like three
it's fucking annoying. So either pop it open to the browser or
let me access my face my bookmarks. Anyway. We have now
come full circle, John. Because the news and being safe in
Facebook, what have we just created? AOL. That's exactly
what it was. It was sated AOL
a while back.
But now with the news, the the actual news stories, being
native to Facebook not popping out to the open web.
Hey, AOL is never a bad idea. For people that don't have a
clue.
So here's the vision at the time of the little bit of Adam curry
history when I registered mtv.com And very early 90s. And
I talked to management at MTV and said, Oh, that's Go ahead.
We don't really believe in this internet thing. By the way, we
have the AOL keyword. That's when I knew they had no future.
So he had no future
they had no future when they were excited about the AOL
keyword instead of a keyword.
I've always just started putting which is put on our on our
flyers in our place. AOL keyword,
no agenda. It would be kind of good
I haven't seen anyone use that banner that probably doesn't
like it.
Oh, by the way, we got I think we got one of our producers gave
us information apocalypse.com Yeah, it's kind of weird to
spell but it's worth it anyway, Blitz. Want to go over to
Bureau's the Euro land for a moment I've been following this
Irish water thing. I think it popped up on board. Appeared
reappeared on my radar. Because of the Bogut of California. It
has one year left of water which by the way, you can go on the
street in five years from now and people will still be saying
it's a fact NASA said only one year left of water. It's it It's
really, it's amazing to me. No, it's not amazing. When did
NASA become this? I thought they were about space exploration.
When did it become the water barons and climate change
experts, mainly that one guy Hansen,
a government organization will do what they're told they're
looking for something to do, I guess. So in Ireland, not to be
confused with Northern Ireland. In Ireland, they've been running
into problems with the budget. And water is, as far as I know,
has been free in it's a free resource that your taxes are
already paying for your water. And he's good. They want to
change this now. And this has been going on for a while
they've been many protests. And let's just listen to a little
update. And I'll tell you what's happening. The government
obviously,
is very pleased that a majority of people a clear majority of
people have signed up to pay for water, it's an expensive
resource, went to provide huge investment in water and sewage
infrastructure into the future. And that can only be done. If
there is a significant contribution for people who are
using that facility. Obviously, there has to be fairness and
balance in the system. And if there are people who simply
decide not to pay, and are in a position to pay, that can't be
allowed to stand, that can't be a situation where any of us
decide not to pay our bills. You know, if you come to a
supermarket checkout, and said no, not paying the bill, and
walk off, that's just not the way the system works.
So how are they going to do it?
If it was a grocery store that said free food?
Now the analogy is shite. But now Irish water will be under a
proposal. I don't think it's been signed into law yet Irish
water will be able to deduct water bills directly from wages
and welfare payments.
How are they going to do this? There's no meters are there. You
wouldn't have a system with meters unless you were going to
charge people. So it was free. Why would they even put a meter
in so there's no meters they're gonna put meters in that'll cost
a fortune.
Those who do not register will be charged a default rate of 260
euros per year with fines of 30 euros being added per year for
single adult homes 60 euros per year for multiple adult homes. A
lot of this is principle obviously, also announced on
unpaid bills can be left as a charge on a property, meaning a
house cannot be sold unless the debt is paid. But this is where
your cashless society is so handy. We just we just grabbed
that money. Take it right out of your account.
Yeah, that's what that's the way this works.
I don't know how the Irish are you know, they're really going
to stand up against this. There are things that are big protests
happening on Saturday. They're, it's, it's quite a rigorous
change for that is the point.
They're just trying to gouge the public with some new tax. You
know, I bet you it's in some of these areas, they charge you for
the air you breathe, you can make an argument for that. You
have to go in once a year like you do with your car to get a
smog you have to go in once a year and they put a kind of a
mask on you and you breathe in and out of the mask for five
minutes. And they can calculate how much air which is a valuable
resource. How much air you're breathing and then they can send
you a bill I don't see why not. It sounds like just saying by
the
way they will send you a bill for carbon pollution.
Well, they could do that too. That'll happen I think that'll
highlight most of the people around this area of the Berkeley
Bay Area. Most of the people would buy into that because
carbon pollution coming from humans is bad too bad we have so
many humans we should all die
yeah yeah, well this will be the last one I like the they will
all die here we go. This is I actually only got this clip
yesterday but I've been looking around for the was under under
New World Order. Who the hell is this? This proposal which is
obviously a war on men thing on my camera. Oh here it banksters
listen to this. This is senator who is this Shelby. Now shoot.
I'm sorry. Now I can't find this all of a sudden. Where's this?
Talk me through a John. Well, I'm looking for the clip. Well,
nevermind that. Yep. Keep going. Yeah, no. Yeah, no, yeah. Yep.
No, yeah. No, yeah. No. Where the hell was oh, here it is.
Yes. Got it.
It's about time BBs.
Have you heard there's a growing movement this morning to give
the $20 bill a facelift. It's a mission to replace Andrew
Jackson on the 20 with a female American hero. Yeah,
when they narrow it down to one Howard says they'll ask
President Obama to order the Treasury Department. Do
you know who the female American hero is?
Well, it's not going to be Hillary because she's still
alive, but they'd love to put her on the bill. You I would
think I think tubs would be a good good possibilities tubs
whose tubs Tubman Tubman yet Chapman, the one woman who was
famous for helping the end of slavery expert Dining. Oh no, no
no no Harriet tone no nice Very good. Okay. No, no, no, no that
was on the little dollars. That was her name. I can't think of
her name but she would name the dollar was named after her as
she was gonna get.
I'm gonna give you a hint. So we're gonna give you a hint.
Kind of a hint is that I'm gonna give you the hint. That was just
announcing the hint. Here comes a hint. But do you have to think
killing people?
Oh, some woman that kills a lot of people. Yeah. Well, that good
then. Eleanor Roosevelt.
Let's listen
to order the Treasury Department to create a new 20 Just last
year, the President said he got a letter from a young girl
asking him to put a woman on us car.
She gave me a like a long list of possible women to put on our
dollar bills and quarters and stuff. Which I thought was
pretty good. Pretty good idea.
My personal choice would be Eleanor Roosevelt.
Presidential historian Doris Kearns Goodwin says Jackson, the
seventh president probably wouldn't even mind getting
replaced.
He didn't like banks anyway. I don't know that he would have
liked to be on a bill because he was the one who fought the idea
of the National Bank.
And I thought on this clip they would mention the name is
Margaret Sanger. Oh, no. Yes. of Planned Parenthood. Known
eugenicist. That's who they're proposing.
That is idiotic. Yeah. Well, they'll get a lot of pushback on
that. So I won't how I
want it but aren't most most of the most leads dead presidents?
Well, we tried to push it through and Republicans didn't
like it.
Republicans didn't like it. Exactly. All right. If this
doesn't get clipped at the gate, then I don't know what will
Well, you got something President Obama announcing by
the way let me just say something pre announcing Clip of
the Day as if you're going to get Clip of the Day is takes a
lot of nerve.
Alright, then we'll do this.
I'm going to show my school by Jonah did no agenda Imagine all
the people who could do that? Oh, yeah, that'd be fun
already backed off that and a few people that's okay. You can
do the clip later. You can sneak it in and see if you get it.
Robert Warner because you did that to me once. Right? I said
it's gonna be a clip of the day you never gave me Clip of the

to I empty my PO box. And then there were two things in there
that I wanted to share. First from Jonathan beras. That's with
the C. C's ed at the end. Just thought I would send out some of
our sample candles for you to try out. Ooh, perfect for you.
Exactly. My wife and I have been making them as gifts for a while
and decided to try selling them online into local shops. So he
gave me the get lucky. Didn't get like candles. So these are
candles in mason jars, which I like a lot I like that idea.
Till they break.
Okay, get lucky this smells a bit like cologne. This one it's
been a big hit with the women woods. A masculine scent with
Strong Oak tones. And just beachy and pine type really,
really nice. A whole box full of these if big mason jar candles,
but it's a carriage town. candle.com. Anyway, the other
one I got a handwritten card and this is from Jean and Brian
McGrew. But they also sent a cheque to me which please don't
do that. Because it really messes up
the you're just asking for trouble. Just $50 I'm doing that
just and
it's longhand on the on the card. It was really nice. Just a
quick note to thank I'm reading the longhand. For all you do. My
entire outlook has changed since listening to no agenda. I spread
the word wherever I can. But I get scoffed at all the time. But
over time, I still see I still see the seed of doubt in the
minds of family and friends. No current events are left out. On
in our no agenda discussions. My adult children really are not
into politics, but even even when now and then I tell them
how full of BS all of these idiots are only once in a while
when I tell them how full of BS all these idiots are. It's all
slowly seeping in good luck in your future. You have many loyal

Well, that's what you'd like to think.
I really like to think it's the universal language of comedy. Oh

yesterday. We congratulate you all here on behalf of the staff
and management the best podcast in the universe. Bang, oh, I
have to do the stupid jobs as well and an F cancer make sure
everybody gets what they need. Jobs, jobs jobs and jobs, got
everything taken care of the President was interviewed by the
Huffington Post, he's everywhere. And he loves it so
much. He loves doing shows, talk shows, interviews, heroes. And
of course, this is all meant, I believe, to distract from people
like Ted Cruz announcing and any other politics, because it's
fun, you know, it's much more fun on on the television, that's
what we call new shows, to show a clip of the President being
funny, which he's very good at very, very good at impromptu,
and just good at it. And he use one of my favorite terms, which
he has used before, which I believe is he really means
because these words matter, but it was not picked up on in this
interview, by the Huffington Post, about his legacy, really,
when you listen to it, and it's about 40 seconds,
wherever we see a possibility of increasing wages, creating more
jobs, making sure that more people are able to access
opportunity, we're going to seize it, and we're going to
wherever possible, try to reach out to Republicans and see if
they can work with us, where they're not willing to work with
us. We will do it administratively. Or we will
convene the private sector, by hook or by crook, we're gonna
make sure that when I leave this office,
by hook or by crook,
that the country is more prosperous, more people have
opportunity. Kids have a better education, we're more
competitive. Climate change is being taken more seriously than
it was. And we are actually trying to do something about it.
Those are going to be the measures by which I look back
and say whether I've been successful as President,
by hook or by crook, which means he's willing to stoop to illegal
activity.
Yes, crook is a very definitive word. If you call somebody a
crook, you can get sued for libel, you can get sued for
libel, because it assumes that they're criminal. So he is
saying that he's going to do criminal activity exactly what
he said. Well, I'm just joking.
So the exact definition by any means necessary by hook or by
crook, suggesting that one not need not be concerned with
morality, or other considerations when
accomplishing some goal, which he said would be he wants to
determine if he was successful as president so his, his legacy
will be cemented by hook or by crook. And where did this come?
Where did this come from?
But by hook or by crook, that term, yeah. Sounds like a
navigate Well, here it is faring.
This is interesting. Now, the origin of the phrase is obscure.
I'm reading from the book of knowledge, with multiple
different explanations and no evidence to support any
particular one over the others. For example, a commonly repeated
suggestion is that it comes from hook head in Wexford, Ireland,
and the nearby village of Crooke in Waterford, Ireland, and
others that it comes from the customs regulating which
firewood local people could take from common land. They were
allowed to take any branches they could reach with a bill
hook or a shepherd's hook. The word crook has a connotation of
crookedness, perversity, and wickedness, while hook might
suggest subtlety, deceit, cunning, chicanery or trickery.
Yeah, I'm liking
that. I'm liking the one for the irishtown You're gonna get there
by hook or by crook. Getting I'm gonna go by hook. Good puppet
hook. It close the place down. That's pretty funny.
All right. There was a representative Carolyn Maloney.
She is a congresswoman from New York, Brooklyn, I believe. And
this is one of these moments when you have these
representatives and they have a witness and they're talking
about doesn't even matter, the grandstand and pontificate and
need to get a message out to look good for a soundbite on TV
if they're lucky. But all it does to state their intent
towards the lobbyist and their loyalty towards the party. And
wow, Carolyn Maloney, she did it to ranking
member may I reclaim my time? I just want to end by saying that
President Obama saved the auto industry. He saved the auto
industry, and he saved the internet. And I believe very
strongly that Republicans are on the wrong side of this issue for
the economy and for the American people. This is lovely.
It's just somebody she's talking about Mr. auto industry auto
aide OTT.
But yes, auto mister auto industry, but I love how she
says he saved the internet.
He saved the internet was going to collapse. What was it? What
happened? I missed this news.
for equality for the net neutrality, this is why he's
saved the internet.
It nothing's changed. Oh,
but he's saved the internet. Do you understand this Rama
drive seen her before this that blonde dummy, as she's, she's,
it's part of Yeah, she read it. I think she's Manhattan part of
Manhattan and then party she's got it like it's a funny
district is gerrymandered just for her. So she can stay there
forever.
I think what we're going to just move into this just for a second
on the FCC vote. And, of course, we have lawsuits and everything.
But what we always discussed as a possibility, what this was
really about, I think we'll see come into play in the next weeks
and months, that this really is going to behoove and help the
approval of the Comcast Time Warner Cable merger. And here's
why I think this will happen. The minute this merger takes
place, that's when they can really rewrite all these rules,
because it's so they're so big. In order for this to get past
any anti competitive ruling or regulations. They're going to
have to rewrite stuff. And I think that is what is intended
is oh, we're going to now now will legally reclassify title to
a new rules that go along with that. Because of course, we want
to have this merger happen. Everybody wins. Everybody wins.
Except for except for the the
public useless eaters. Yeah, leaders they lose. So
the White House also came out with some new one is it to
expanding broadband deployment and adoption by addressing
regulatory barriers and encouraging investment and
training as a presidential memorandum. And they have a fact
sounds like free money.
Yes. And in fact sheet, and next steps and delivering fast,
affordable broadband. And of course, we're going to have
another steering committee that everybody's on. I think I think
as the Time Warner Comcast merger comes closer, you're
going to see how these things dovetail perfectly together, and
what it really was all about for them, the sideline being, of
course, the actual regulation of the content and devices and the
actual network traffic that you're allowed to utilize. And I
got a note from one of our producers anonymous, Adam and
Jonathan, IT Director for Public School District, I thought you'd
find this interesting. And he sent me a screenshot, which is
relevant for the story, a survey done for the FCC during the E
Rate application process. E Rate is a federal program that gives
schools money for it. As you can see, unless the school district
provides a listen to this, this is how stupid our government is.
Unless a school district provides at least one gigabit
per second of bandwidth per 1000 students, the FCC is is going to
classify it as having inadequate internet access. Which, of
course, is insane. Because that's not how it works. It's
not like you're born and you need a gigabit per day or
something.
Now, give me that number again. And that's a couple other
numbers.
I'll give you that. Let me read the whole thing. Unless the
school district provides at least one gigabit per second of
bandwidth per 1000 students, the FCC is going to classify it as
having inadequate internet access. At our district, we
provide an iPad or Chromebook to every one of our 3000 students.
Yet our daily bandwidth usage peaks at 500 to 600 megabits per
second makes sense. According to the FCC, we need to purchase
another two gigabits per second of bandwidth, which is very
expensive, especially if you're not using it for years to meet
their arbitrary benchmarks. Otherwise, we'll be classified
as having inadequate internet access.
Can't they? They want one gigabit per per case. So that's
essentially 100 100 megabits per second per student or no tandem
right?
It's a gigabit. It's 1000 1000. Wait, no, they
said one gigabit per 1000 Students usually divide the way
they're doing it. I know what they're trying to do. It doesn't
make any sense because that's the right it's not the way so
one gigabit is 125 megabytes,
rounded out Yeah. To you know, the giga, no, see what that
looks like.
But this is not how network
doesn't how networks work. So okay, so they're trying to do
one megabit per second per student. Now if you
know testing, it's 10. I think it's 10. Now it is
one because you have 1000 students you have if you have
one, if you have one megabit per second, and 1000 of that would
be a gigabyte or gigabit. So it No it's it's one one megabit per
second per student. Supposedly,
I'll tell you, I'll tell you one thing You and I are not the guys
to figure this one out.
Well now we can figure this out is that just simple math? It's
one meg
one meg. It's a little over one megabit per second per student
if they were all surfing at the same time all slamming it Yeah.
All downloading Netflix,
right all the time. So this is dumb.
Yeah. But this also determines the money that the schools get
if they're spending it on stupid band, which they don't need band
which
write that down band which
which as good band, whichever body so you have
what's interesting, they would come up with this arbitrary
number just as doing the stitch schools.
This is written by people who really don't understand how it
works. And let's just stay with schools for a moment this is the
reporting get ready for glitch reporting. This was a no but I
know exactly what happened a school entire school system in
Philly. The report is got hacked and we're held ransom of course
you know what this is is the ransomware stuff that someone
got on there. Now oh, by
the way, this stop right now with the ransomware thing and
let me ask a question. Where's the FBI? He got all these cyber
guys trying to crack it you know get into North Korea and they're
doing all this stuff and this bullshit has been going on for
what two years now longer
I think let me see if How
hard can it be? You have to pay these guys off? Yeah, we racked
up Money
With Bitcoin Bitcoin. Bitcoin they always ask for Bitcoin.
Yeah, well, they're gonna Yeah, that ever happened to me.
Listen to the clip.
If that ever happened to me, I just reinstall the operating
system and say Screw you. I'm not gonna get a Bitcoin
I'm with you. There's nothing really of any importance you can
have the whole damn thing. Now that anything is important I
carry with me. One copy. Don't you have a USB stick you carry
around? I do as a matter I always have an encrypted USB
stick with all my stuff that I want that I need that I'll need
anywhere. That's all you really need. Here we go.
Oh Jess, the FBI New Jersey State Police county a local
police all looking into this most unusual cyber attack. Cyber
attack targeted the computers of the swedesboro Woolwich school
district hear that hackers not stealing identities but instead
paralyzing the system and demanding a ransom payment to
get it working again. But apparently the the FBI well,
they're there he said right and the FBI or they're working on
it. They're working on it. We can do anything with the IT
director at any part of our network. You know, under this
kind of a cyber attack. Suddenly Monday morning teachers and
students at four elementary schools in the swedesboro
Woolwich district found hackers using something called
ransomware had kidnapped their computer system a person or
persons at this point unknown hacked our system remotely the
hackers message school officials they'd hold the computer network
hostage and
I would give 10 bucks the first person that use the term script
kiddies on TV, we have to find new words that hackers people
unusable until a ransom was paid the ransom that was demanded is
500 Bitcoin which the police let us know this morning is
equivalent to about $128,000 I don't have any idea how
something like this happens. And why they would attack a school
district I have no idea parents like Julie Smith found without
computers their kids couldn't buy lunch teachers couldn't take
attendance here
we go more unintended consequences of technology.
It's all internet so to not have that capability is a little bit
difficult. We can't check grades we can't check you know any of
those things, test scores any of those things.
Suddenly education went back to the 80s with pen and paper
replacing smartboard oh no session much as it might have
been 20 or 30 years ago before the advent of technology
Yeah, kids might actually learn something in the next day or two
to check in and Facebook Oh,
this is the beginning
it these guys are gonna attack anything schools are great. I
just love to hate you can't buy lunch without the computer let
network work and there's something wrong with you. Well,
that's cool.
Again. Well, the although a lot of these lunch rooms now they
have fingerprint scanners. We've we've discussed these why?
Because money, technology just to have it just to have Why is
Silicon Valley even inventing all this crap? Who needs these
things? Seriously, who needs this stuff?
So you go into the lunch room and you have to put your finger
your forefinger, not four fingers but for or finger on a
little thing and it's Oh, okay, John, that you you can you can't
see my face? No.
We did a couple stories on this a while.
Gasman is the God most galling thing going on right now. And
everybody's all in on it. Oh, it's great. Let's spend more
money on crap tech, junk tech. Tech Tech has upgraded make the
Common Core really a serious thing so we can buy more
computers so kids can take the test. No, this is a Microsoft
Surface great. Where two plus
three is approximately?
Go I like that a lot. I think that's it's all been prophesized
people. It's all going to end.
It's not gonna end well. No, it will not
end well. We are not going to start making predictions on what
a piece of society is going to fall apart next, based upon some
bogus belief that technology is really the answer.
But technology is not the answer. No, it's already over.
It's just too much too much.
People do things the answer the President just announced another
huge stem in some
money sink. This technology has become a complete Jip. Yeah, it
is. It is. And I'm a guy who covers technology as I make my
job. And I'm not happy, but not a happy camper stuff that I like
is and I can't find out anybody. You they change technology like
left and right now they're up to display port three, and nobody
knows anything about it. And by the way, I did write this what I
didn't say I wrote into the experts. Oh that they never
answered back. The experts. Yeah, the expert is that display
port.org I don't see any email answer to my question.
Did you hear that? There was a bomb threat in Petaluma.
There's always a bomb threatened pedal. There was a lot of at the
suite ends
up at the twit, Brickhouse.
Oh, there was yeah, I never heard this. Yeah,
march 23. This is the police of Petaluma police dispatch
received a phone call from a male who claimed he had placed
eight pipe bombs at 140 Keller street. When police dispatch
asked why they picked that address. The male caller said
because it was a twig brick house and they're all going to
die. But once the caller was asked why he was upset with twit
and the caller stated he was not just upset with them but his
whole life. The caller claimed he was going to take them all
out and the bombs he had placed in the building would go off in
three hours. The caller then made threats to go to the
business and shoot all of the occupants of the building before
the bombs went off. The caller hung up after the statement.
Petaluma police responded to the business and contacted the
management of twit
that'd be the time to watch the live feed or the
rich is a technology podcast company. Oh Leo will hate that.
Providing the latest perspective and trends in digital technology
phones. The management of the company was advised of the call
and the need for police to perform a visual inspection of
the inside of the building to attempt and locate any explosive
devices. company employees were not ordered to evacuate the
building however they were advised for the safety of their
employees it might be best for them to leave. Most employees
left until the business could be cleared by police. That's not
very nice.
No
funny funny but it's not
good material. I
won't use it. Meanwhile, the the Dutch transport ministry and
inspectors have raided the Uber offices in in Holland and
Holland. Yeah. Which is funny because I think it's one guy.
I've talked to know that
who probably right.
spokeswoman for the Transport Inspectorate said there were
signs the company continued to offer Uber pop. And the agency
was taking evidence from company computers to determine the scope
of Ubers non compliance with the ruling this is the the low end
where you're driving in some guy's Prius which I which I'm
telling you this is going to end if I were running this company
and be like Why Why deal with these with these people? They
complained. I'm sure that the customers complained about some
of these low end citizens shuttling citizens around. Just
take the taxis just take the old black cabs, everything's
fantastic. That's it's a great app for that. You will own
transportation, get rid of the stupid ride sharing it not going
to work as a commercial business. It's not going to
work. And I was talking to one of the Uber drivers the other
day here in Austin, they you know, you hear the guy. Oh,
where are you from? I'm from Jordan. Ah, I love doing that. I
love talking to these guys about their home countries. Because I
don't think many of their customers actually understand
anything that's going on. And it's such culture in the Middle
East to be talking about politics and geopolitical things
and they're living in the sand and getting drowned and mash it
all up man. Wow, that that whole Burning Man Jordan pilot that
was pretty bogus and he will Ah, yes, no, this goes oh, you know?
Ah, no, I told I spoke to Sister, sister of the Jordanian
pilot. It was a United Arab Emirates fighter jet with a
female pilot who shot down the Jordanian pilot according to my
Uber sources and the reason that it because it was a female pilot
is why I'm gonna give it some credence because that's a little
more information than just saying UAE but he did not agree
with my theory that Jordan was supposed to take out to Assad.
He wasn't too sure about that. But he totally bought into is is
bullcrap. It was beautiful.
I had the same experience with a guy I forget where this was, but
another Middle Eastern guy and I brought up some some ISIS stuff
and he even showed me he ended up showing making me watch all
these videos and collected a goal. Yeah, I'm gonna show
delete this. And so Okay, so I'm watching a lot of videos in the
back seat. If there's any actually the front seat I
usually do not sit in the back seat. I don't like sitting in
the backseat is I think is pretentious. What's the point?
I'd rather sit in the front seat where I could actually see where
we're going and look around. Maybe I've learned something on
the way. I don't like sitting in the backseat of these cars. No.
Cars and limo Even I wouldn't sit in the front if I can.
Oh, limos were the worst. I hated the stretch limos because
they're terrible. Your bacteria like like a caged animal worse
the minute
the guy breaks you're always flying through the
line around. Open the door for Yeah, you look like a some sort
of a douche douche? Do you look like a douche? Who's that
douche? That's what people say when they see it getting out
dudes that do shoot
of Angelina Jolie. The previously did this big
promotion for the bracha gene. This is the breast cancer gene
with the US Patent it's all over the news have this is this why
I'm bringing it up. It's patented or the news. Only one
company can tell you if you have this and make money off of it,
which is a you're then pre cancerous for breast cancer. Of
course, the pre is the funny thing because I'm also pre
cancerous, pre dead. We're all pre we're pre funding it pre all
kinds of stuff. Now, I don't want to say that you know that
this is necessarily bad. I think what the what the Affordable
Care Act did was allow for insurance companies or not
allowed but force insurance companies to cover
reconstructive surgery after a preventative mastectomy. And if
you look at Angelina Jolie, man, good job. Very good job. She had
that done first, and now she had her ovaries removed.
In 2013. Julie had a preventative double mastectomy.
After testing positive for mutation of braca the breast
cancer gene cancer took her grandmother aunt and mother.
After the test, Julie went to see her mother's surgeon. She
teared up when she saw me, you look just like her. I broke
down. But we smiled at each other and agreed we were there
to deal with any problems. So let's get on with it.
This is a whole op ed she did in the New York Times
an ultrasound and scan show no full blown cancer but there was
still a chance it was in an early stage with her family and
genetic history, Jolene. I
mean,
I mean, she has no cancer. But it's this preventative thing.
And I believe this is a trend that she is pushing willingly or
not, as she seems like a perfect MK Ultra candidate to me
as a self mutilation
Yes, it's exactly what it is. It's like you can get you can
cut off your leg. If you think you know, you're gonna get
diabetes, well might as well cut it off now. There's a lot of
things you could do, but it kind of goes against all principles
of medicine. Have we given up on everything now if there's never
going to be a cure for cancer, just rip out the bits. Oh, I can
get brain cancer. My eyes will take out a piece. i Oh, you know
what? I'm a candidate for prostate cancer. You know what,
take it out who needs it? That's where this is leading. And I
it's disturbing. It's also a part of the assisted suicide. I
don't know. I see it from a metal level and I see just
people being programmed to do things that are unnatural and I
don't think very good.
We have we had a letter long letter from a doctor to do like
a really long letter that was kind of agreeing with us on all
levels about this being kind of the Dark Ages of medicine and
some of these trends are just so negative.
Do you have the letter by any chance? I
can't find it.
Okay. Yeah, it's totally negative. Meanwhile, everyone's
screaming about vaccines and said, Oh, by the way, I'm on TV
two. I think it's tonight in TV two in Denmark, they have an
hour long documentary on the adverse effects of Gardasil, the
HPV vaccine. Oh, good. Somebody's
finally done that. Yeah.
Several Danish girls became seriously ill shortly after they
received the HPV vaccine. Many of them are blaming the vaccine.
And let's see, was there anything else about this
particular Well, someone will watch it and I'm sure we have I
know we have Danish shirtless because they're the happiest
people on earth.
I heard that. I heard they're really happy. I think it's a
high taxes fact.
It makes it real happy.
They love it that way. They know they're part of a bigger
community when they pay those taxes those high taxes
and the Connecticut home of Adam Lanza and his mother Nancy Lanza
has officially been demolished. Oh good.
It's about time after they had abolished the school they Mazal
demolish the where it began
and they completely into the incinerated all the everything
inside the home all the evidence rugs lighting fixtures, and it
was we talked about this a bank acquired the home and and then
said oh, well, we're just going to destroy it. That sounds like
something banks do. Just burning money.
Is the screw easiest thing ever? Well, though, another scary
thing. I got the clip. Lethal injection story.
Oh, yes. This was a someone sent this to me from the Netherlands.
It was in the newspaper there.
So Andrew know that we know there are 32 states where the
death penalty is legal. We know that.
Sorry. You say some? Yeah, it's
32. Not 33. Oh, yes, George mele? Israel. It's
Andrew know that we know there are 32 states where the death
penalty is legal. We know that Utah would become the only state
along with Oklahoma where the backup method would be a firing
squad to other states, New Hampshire, Washington state have
hanging as a backup. And then there are five more states that
use the electric chair as the backup In addition, Oklahoma
where I guess it's either or why is there so much concern about
these lethal injection? Sure.
You don't answer a question like that with the word. Sure.
That's a very Silicon Valley thing to do, by the way. Oh,
is that what you track it to? Because I every time I see and
this guy was the worst? And his answer to the long question was
sure. Yeah. I've been hearing as I bitched about this every time
it comes along, but this one was so outraged. It wasn't like the
Sure, blah, blah, blah. It was sure. And it was a long pause.
And the next word was, um, I wasn't gonna go any further
with. Oh,
sure. The way it works. It's usually one is based on a
question that the, that the person is supposed to have
complete knowledge of, and the person knows that the
interviewer doesn't know shit. And then it's just sure so let
me tell you about how our, how our networking fits together.
It's kind of like I'm such an authority. I'm just gonna say
Sure. I'll tell you that little little knowledgeable press
person you.
You think as an insult.
Yes, it is a subtle, it's a subtle down.
insult a subtle, I want to tell everyone out there. What does
any of this have? You're in the news business at all? And
somebody says, surely you stop them in their tracks and say,
Hey, man, viewing you not to be insulting. I don't you Why are
you insulting me with this shore? Nonsense. Sure.
Right. But okay, just that would be if it was true news and not
PR because there's all PR now. So this was a big
one with firing squads. No, I
believe that. So there's two parts to it. These drugs the
company that made the drug stopped making the drug. That's
that's what's been going on. It's been in short supply
everywhere. But now the fun thing is, is to and it comes
down to PR bad PR for Republicans in in states where
they are now going to put people in front of the firing squad
which is not necessarily the truth.
For they actually they do so few of these executions. They just
keep the guy in jail while they stole right.
But it makes for a good headline and it was in the headlines. I
was sent to me by a friend this morning. And she made a snapshot
scan of this Bob America going back to the firing squad. It's
just it's
dipping people in boiling oil. Well
again, I will say and I will say toward any bill by any
Republican Democrat libertarian Tea Party independent rent to
high party if you come up with a proposal that makes capital
punishment ie death as penalty mandatory shown on television
yeah I'll even take C span this would this is what will change
Bonanza This is our way out. Oh, yeah. Are you
in might you mean we when we do the TV show you mean?
Yeah. Three to four presents?
It makes so much sense. We put everything on television well,
they used to everything
this is used to be public executions. They had a lot of
them were like disgusting and but there'd be a big crowd
100,000 People with hangings
and I think it's I think we should not hide this this is
this is really important there's nothing
that makes them you know change the laws the only way all these
liberals all does a horrible with killing people which you
know, they don't mind just a philosophical thing but whatever
the case is they're bitching and moaning they want to put a stop
to it put it on television
and you know what you know why they won't do it because it will
be a huge hit. Everybody would want and we could make bank we
could have firing squad UK firing squad down under
firing squad you UK electric chair of
Estonia and we oh we know we can do we can have we'll reverse it
like with the voice where the chairs turn around. So the
chairs turn around but then one of them is wired. And you get
electrocuted.
Who's gonna be gets the job this week who gets fried tonight? It
should do a little interview with each one of the people
sitting in the chairs What are you thinking right now bill? I'm
sorry did it I didn't mean to kill those people.
Well, we've been we've been working a lot we've been working
on our TV shows for a while that's what everybody wants to
get to play we lose our drone. Will there be civilian
casualties? Will there be any dead children find out next on
the losers lose our drone but another great format squandered
Yeah, I can argue we have a lot of these good ideas that just
never come to fruition. We don't have anybody step up. You know,
you know some big real producers you know, big money I'm talking
about below drop a million.
Oh million.
Well make it 10. I think you do a pilot for a million.
Do a pie. Well, yeah, depends. I got one. You see, I have a
couple of things left on if you have anything you want to roll
out before we shut it down for the day.
I only have I have a bitch clip. If you want to play it.
It's clip I'll take a bit clip a lottery money. Okay, bitch clip
day always
taught, we want to know about the lottery, millions and
millions and millions of dollars a year is going to the
government from the lottery. Why doesn't anybody ever say what
they're investing in what they're doing with that money,
instead of helping us people that need the help. And the
where you can't retire at 65? No more. And the kids that have
worked and now have nothing to look forward to it until they
can retire? Where is all that extra money going to the taxes
that they're paying from 65 to 72 or whenever they can retire?
Okay, two different issues. So, Jim McIntyre, if
you could just take up the lottery issue. How does that
work? Well, in Washington State, I can't speak to Georgia. But I
can say that in Washington State, the lottery produces
about 100 100 and $20 million a year and has for several years.
So it's actually not a growing revenue source. It's a pretty
small part of our budget, but all of those funds are actually
dedicated to education expenditures. So in Washington,
we're pretty clear about how we spend a lottery money.
Actually, all the states do the same scam and it happened I
remember when it happened here in California, they instituted
lottery which are always against because it's public gaming, a
gaming it's a scam, and they all deny that, but half the money
goes to the middlemen. So the gods
and the producers and the TV shows and all the bullcrap
in between they get the state gets about half of the money,
and they started off as all the education in California we're so
in desperate need of money. So that's why we're going to do the
lottery, the education people are going to get it and so the
education people get the money to stay committed against you
know their head whatever they have is 120 million is probably
the typical everywhere. They get it and goes into education. So I
asked somebody when she was I forgot which government
official. And I should you know that, because they're always
bitching University of California keeps raising tuition
and everybody's out of money. And so what happened, we were
going along at a certain pace, and now there's lottery money
was supposed to do something for the education. I said, Why is it
worse than before? It's worse in California than before this
lottery came along. It's horrible. And I was told that
oh, yeah, well, no, it all goes education. But the old education
budget went to the general fund, they just pulled the plug on the
original amount of money that was going to education, they
just started using whatever the lottery could come up with. So
there's less money
in the Netherlands rageous scam. In the Netherlands, they have
they have perfected this scam to a tea. That's called the
National postcode lottery, the postal code being zip code, and
the way it works is zip codes, area, zip codes, when. And these
are usually down to a street level, maybe two streets. And so
what happens is, people buy and this thing was big money, of
course, people buy a national lottery ticket. But all of their
neighbors buy too. Because, you know, of course, invariably, on
the show, you see a whole bunch of people happy they want
millions. And there's that one sucker who didn't buy a lot of
lottery ticket. And he's the big loser.
Oh, yeah, that's the way to do it. That's a great idea. So it's
a SuperSkin shame the losers. Yeah,
yeah. And so because it's by by area by zip code, everybody in
that zip Yeah, we got to buy in. One of my neighbors become a
millionaire and I'm the fucking loser. I gotta get a ticket.
Perfection.
Do they go interview the losers course. But also feel now that
you didn't buy a lottery ticket, but also your friends are now
millionaires.
You can also do a quarter ticket or a half ticket or a full
ticket. Don't ask me exactly how it works. Until you see like an
hominids and they have the envelopes. They're all sitting
in a circle like a Dutch birthday party and they pulled
out like 5 million people or wedding themselves and then
here's the guy who do put in like one buck and one euro and
didn't get the full on lottery ticket 30,000 There's a lot of
shame shameful and it's shameful
they shouldn't have lotteries in any EU United States they
shouldn't mean they said Nevada which has got your you know
gambling legalized gambling right they do every player sells
to now thanks to the Indians getting you know some piece of
the action but it didn't state government should not be running
these things. You know,
the here's what I'm working on for Sunday. You mentioned it
earlier, but I do want to talk about the China crisis. There's
a lot of a lot of financial firms trusts which are like 50
or 60 just blowing up though Yeah, within a month and that's
more your wheelhouse certainly with the more whiskey Oh, no.
Did you talk about it all
and a little bit but mostly about the numbers coming in and
skewed?
Yeah, well, I'd love to I'd love to hear that. Let's do that
Sunday. I also have little Hollywood PR I mean of course we
have the finds that the final season of madmen coming up now
April
April five so yeah, everyone has lost interest by the way. Well,
they're trying to crank it up. They've gone to extreme measures
than the here it is. We have Jon Hamm the WHO IS THE he's the
dude lead lead the main character that has announced he
recently completed treatment for alcohol addiction. So I'm all
good now ready for the new season. As always, so quit
that's that must be tough man when the studio comes to you and
says Hey, John, man, ham. Listen. We don't have a lot of
interest for the new season. You know, it's very expensive show
and Well, I'll tell you what, we just did a little PR and I'm
sorry this what with this the best we could come up with I'm
sure I'm sure less you can come up with something better than
better. Something better
right? Yeah, maybe I can be drug addicted No, no, no, no, we
don't want that we wanted something that's a tie into the
show. Do you understand this tie into the show? Alcohol they
drink a lot on the show. It's like a drink fast on the show.
You're gonna have you carry it over to your real life.
Do you understand? Yes, you get it. And I have kind of end of
show things that we could play
for you play anything guy want. Now I really want to hear the
CLIP OF THE WEEK clip.
Now because I already played it, and it was and you didn't get
even a clip. Oh, I'm
sorry. I should have just given it to you for that one earlier.
You were
right. And but you were right. You called me out and I
shouldn't have said that. I shouldn't have prefaced
it I've done it made the same stupid mistake. And it turns out
that the clip of the week that You Think Tip of the Week is a
dud.
Well, it was not a dud you liked it but you didn't get a clip of
anything else. Okay, Abby Martin.
Yeah. Oh god that poor woman. You know, I feel sorry for her
now.
Let us review quickly then I want to hear why you feel sorry
I'd be Martin wound up on RT Russia Today hosting a program
called breaking the set which we have criticized heavily for
mainly her performance as a host
right and barely able to stand on heels was
it Shan she she said she laughed But we kind of know she was
fired. And I and in this clip, it becomes apparent why she was
she can't really be on any anything any channel that has an
alternative message to the to the talking stream main points.
She's from what she from Oakland. I think
she's from Oakland.
And actually been this this clip and she was at to in Berlin at Z
D Day for the Zeitgeist Movement. It was one of these
things like well, we'll pay for a ticket and cabana over on you
can stay. You know, you can share a room with Richard
Stallman. Yeah, it's up in the Pennsylvania. You imagine Abby
Martin and Richard Stallman bunking? Oh, my God. No, no,
I'll say they have a shot of her at this at the doing a Keynote
or whatever.
Stallman Chase stayed with Julio Delon, her husband.
He prefers not to stay in a hotel. I know he does. Yeah.
Yeah. They have a shot, which is kind of three quarter of her so
more profile. She looks gorgeous John, and I she is extremely
photogenic. I have never liked her look. And I don't know just
but Frau stunningly beautiful. Everything. Her hair is a little
different. Really. She's incredibly pretty. And for
people asking why we'd say this word television producers, we
evaluate this stuff. This is about only
reason we're not doing it. Because we get expecting to get
a date by being complimentary.
Hey, I would go out with her. If she asked.
You probably she'd probably be reading you the whole time. And
as we go on with the story.
Well, I wondered if you wanted to hear a little bit of her of
her speech? Yeah. Oh, it's two, two clips. You can stop them
anytime you want. It's a full 40 minutes. The whole thing? I just
I had to play that. No, but I just had to clip a
couple. I've heard about some of these shows. She cusses like
a truck. Yeah. Oh, a lot of F bombs. She F bombs a lot. What's
the it's pointless. But the reason is, I've already of
course analyze this. She is trying to she's trying to
portray a message in mainly of how the mainstream media
Television does not address the real issues that we should be
looking at which of course, in her mind is climate change. And
all these things that brush it today will have no business
warming, global warming precisely. But she does this by
trying to inflect and use fuck, she uses that word a lot. Just
to try and try and make her words have some impact. Which is
just it's uncomfortable when she says it. Thank you. Thank you.
She also has that dead monotone which is
she's very poor. We could we could fix that we
could teach her
best to late. She want is just too late. But go play. Okay.
Thank you. Thank you want to human family living on one
organism to one
human family living on one human organism? What does that mean? I
don't know. That's how she started off.
Yet man is embroiled in a war against himself. Unfortunately,
this blatant truth hasn't yet been realized by the vast
majority of humans living on Earth.
Again, what is she a philosopher?
Well, this is her script. And she cannot deliver a script if
he's trying to be Yeah, like a philosopher, but it doesn't come
out. Right. There's no academia is not that bright,
the war against ISIS, Russia, and now laughably Venezuela,
Venezuela
that she thinks is a war against Venezuela.
And it didn't headlines in the latest front of the information
war, but a far more deadly war is being waged against the
organism that we all share. We face the most severe
environmental crises in the history of this planet.
Listen to her numbers and facts. So just to read, whatever,
whatever is coming next. It's the worst environmental threat
and since the beginning of the Earth,
deforestation has at a rate of 36 football fields per minute,
per minute, minute by minute. terminal care. I could fix this
girl. I'm telling you,
we could do it. Let's play it. We're gonna just pass on fixing
her.
I want to fix her. She can be a great asset. Okay, we faced
the most severe environmental crises in the history. We have
this planet deforestation as at a rate of 36 football fields per
minute. Floating trash islands, the size of Texas across the
Pacific. And horizon
is bunches of them
across the Pacific. floating islands of plastic the size of
Texas
and half the world's species has been wiped out in the last 40
years. Really?
Half the world's species has been wiped out in the last 40
years.
She thinks, because are you gonna stop now? A
little more? A little more?
You told me I can stop you.
Okay, can we play the second one then?
Yeah, you can play the second one cuz I can't take her. Okay.
And I'll tell you what I'm thinking is going on. She is
extremely she is massively depressed. But go on. Yeah.
I want you to listen to this because this now talks about her
original blog, media roots, which
got it that catapulted her into the US into the realm the
limelight of RT.
Yeah. And I just wanted to bear with it. It's only two minutes.
The kooky talk is worth listening to
around that same time, I started a little website called Video
roots. It started as just a hub for sensor information. It grew
into a multimedia citizen journalism project, which
eventually brought me to Russia today and then breaking the set.
Now, if you actually look at media routes.org it's just a
it's a it's a blog about her law blog about her with videos of
her okay.
And it was a dream job to attack power on an international
platform. John,
this weekend, you and I were going to attack international
attack media on an international platform together. Okay,
promise, but I
decided I want to be meeting the people behind the stories and
telling them myself independent from any state or corporate
entity. I don't just want to react to mainstream media's
circle jerk of fuckery.
circle jerk of fuckery this is where I told you the cookie was
coming. I don't just want to react to the mainstream media
circle jerk of fuckery
I don't just want to react to mainstream media's circle jerk
of fuckery
maybe since that's something else but it sounds like these
issues. What is it? What does it sound bugger?
buggery? mainstream media's circle jerk of fuckery?
No, it's Twitter. Doesn't matter these issues deserve
in depth analysis and substances discussion.
She needs to take some acting lessons.
Yes, we can fix her picture, listen to this. These issues
deserve
in depth analysis and substances discussion, which is everything
that was seen here today. Hence the problem with the 24 hour
news cycle, right? Right incessantly reacts to what these
corporate elite assholes create for us. That's their reality.
And just to emphasize this point, Bush lackey, I don't know
if any of you know who Karl Rove is. brazenly told The New York
Times back in 2004, named Ron Suskind. He said this. We're an
empire now. And when we act, we create our own reality. And
while you're studying that too judiciously, as you will, will
act again, creating other new realities which you can study
too. And that's just how things will sort out. We're history's
actors. And you, all of you will just be left to study what we
do. Unfortunately, he's right. Reality is dictated by an out of
touch warmongering elite that doesn't apply to the reality
that 99.9% of us live every day.
She took 99% than 1% up to the point 0.1%
And it's only able to sustain on fear and war. Well, part of
this. There's nothing the establishment fears more than a
populace not living in fear.
No, that's not true. They just want the poppers uneducated. The
fear thing is just to make it that way.
People are disillusioned, of course, they've been called
crazy. They've been called the conspiracy theorists for wanting
more than two parties in America for questioning ludicrous,
paradoxical foreign policy,
ludicrous, paradoxical foreign policy. They also want
sustainable
energy. Three quarters of Americans want to transfer to
wind 71% want to transfer to wind power, I'm sorry, solar and
wind, according to Gallup in 2013. I'm not sitting up here
saying I have all the answers and I don't think anyone out
here claims to but a technological resource based
economy is the most thought provoking and groundbreaking
solution. I've seen it the price hawks
came to this he's winding it up she's a crescendo last 10
minutes as she finishes
soon
yeah, this thing appears saying I have all the answers and I
don't think anyone out here claims to but a technological
resource based economy is the most thought provoking and
groundbreaking solution I've seen to the crisis. The
civilization that we face. And there's an extensive roadmap on
how to get there. We don't have to wait for anyone but ourselves
to start implementing the ideals either. She should run for
office and then maybe it could be on the $20. Bill.
I think that's enough. Yeah, I'm
done. But it's worth watching. I
was I was looking at. I had followed her for a while. I know
you did. And she has and by the way, her new picture on her
Twitter feed is shows a woman that again, is photogenic and it
looks totally different than you've ever seen her before.
What's
her? What's your what's your Twitter handle?
Abby Martin, ABB y M AR ti n all one word. And then she sent
something out. And I recently and I just stopped following her
because she's not worth following anymore. She is
extremely I got the feeling that this loss of her job at Russia
today really seriously hurt her feelings. Yeah. And and she was
and if you've seen those old videos of her which she's an
artist, she does a lot of Yeah, and I think that her art is
pretty good actually your art is tends to be it's a little busy.
It tends to be a little amphetamine oriented and you
know the very busy but she has lots of
I'm sorry, amphetamine. Did you saying that? She's a speed junk?
Well, I'm saying that I've known artists on speed and they this
art looks like that. Okay. And but she's always was up tempo
with sunshine and the one thing she was doing on they've gone to
on the YouTube was painting these is all very positive.
Right? And then she tweets out some Oh, I love this guy. I love
this artist and I went to check this guy stuff out. So
depressing. The worst kind of like people hanging themselves
all black and white. A guy's drowning a woman choking a man
to death, all these kinds of things. And I think it this
woman has now has issues. I think she is extremely damaged
from this whole RTX experience. And I I don't want to have
anything to do with following her fixing her anything else? I
think she's just wrecked. And all if you look at her Twitter,
Twitter feed is all wood besides these artists that are horrible,
is all clips from her old show is out of that. Yeah, another
clip after another terrible, terrible, okay, she's in bad
shape. She needs to go see a shrink that
I will put out there. Abby Martin, I can fix you. So to
such a degree that you couldn't get another job on some news
television channel, but then you'll be okay. And you'll get
to slip in your little things. But you can do it this way.
Girl, this is not how it's going to work. And you got to do you
got to learn a little acting. I think she will be she's she's
free and available floating out there to help us combat the New
World Order. And she
probably will if she doesn't get this sense. She's gonna kill
herself for some. Oh,
oh, by the way. How's Brian Williams doing? I don't know.
Nobody says he's not he hasn't killed himself yet.
No, he hasn't. Less than 10 minutes to go. I think there's
less than two minutes to go. We're done. We're done.
You got it. Okay, China will do that. I have more Ukrainian
stuff. Russia. Truckers? Yeah. All kinds of good stuff. Oh,
yes. In one of our producers, who runs the strategy and
planning department of a major oil company and has feedback on
the real numbers in oil and drilling and fracking, etc.
which has been sent to me under agreement of anonymity. Oh,
loving it. Yeah, that'll be Sunday. And of course, I will be
coming to you from the capital of the drone Star State. Austin,
Texas. On Sunday, Sunday. So thanks for hanging out there.

diets. Coming to you from the crock pot condo in downtown
Austin in the morning everybody. My name is Adam curry
