Did you ever get my stapler and we went out in the morning and
were burned a piece down if I'm going to do Adam curry,
John C. Dvorak on February 14 2010. Time for your gizmo
nation media assassination episode 174. This is no agenda
now in high fidelity. I am coming to you live from the
SoCal southern hilltop Watchtower crackpot command
centre, and get mon nation West in the morning, everyone. I'm
Adam curry,
and it's a foggy Valentine's Day here in Northern Silicon Valley.
And I'm John C. Dvorak. Greg Vaughn buzzkill the morning, do
you my friend. Shame to you. Say it in the morning?
Yes. Happy Valentine's Day.
Valentine's day it is.
And also the Chinese New Year I'm reliably informed Gunkel fat
joy. Yes. And I'd like some of that, please with an egg roll.
Yeah. You know,
I luckily now that I've so first First things first, we have a
real connection now. I only had to move to Los Angeles to get
it. But we are now broadcasting in 64 kilobits per second on the
stream and John, you sound wonderful.
Ah, yeah. That's weird. Because apparently from your
perspective, it was
always it's always your connection. But the good news
is, I no longer have to say minimum. Because I'm not in the
minimum minimum security containment cell.
You're in a maximum security genomes. No, I'm in
the hilltop Watchtower now. So I'm overlooking everything but
it's too bad because I finally got a jingle because I couldn't
pronounce a minimum. So so this is what came in
right? Yeah, well, you want to say it anymore. So you're
looking now?
No, I'm Have no fear. I'm overlooking all of Southern
California for
you. So you can be lobbing grenades from where you are,
dude, it's
the perfect place. Now, we've downsized a little bit. It's not
quite as big as the minimum security contain and sell but
you can't beat the view.
It looked pretty big to me.
Oh, no, no, square footage wise now. Now the other.
The other place was just kind of useless. Square footage was like
a bowling alley in there. Well,
if you're if you're a bowler, it's not useless.
You need to depend on the machine for
All right, well, anyway, I'm real happy man. Because now
we're kind of on equal footing. I can hear you there's almost no
delay. Did you send out a tweet? Go? Of course, she didn't.
Let me go do that.
So anyway, so we're on Time Warner Cable while you're doing
that, and I it's pretty good. We have 12 megabit megabits down
and one megabit up. And we're going to do today's show is a
full on full bore test. I've even asked Mickey to upload some
porn. I see if that breaks me. You're
really going for? Oh, yeah. No,
we're going all out, brother. It's nice that ADSL how much
crap was that? It was horrible. This is so nice. We could even
do video.
Yeah, we were practising on the scene the other day and you
could do video was pretty certainly we're not going to be
doing ladies and gentlemen now please
don't be don't be asking for it. You do not want to see me. I
can't I can't speak on behalf of my partner in crime, John. But I
have a feeling you don't want to see him in the morning either.
I would say that's true. Yes. Okay, you've tweeted right, you
know, I'm typing it out. Now.
For someone who writes for a living. You write pretty slow.
Well, while I'm sitting here with a microphone in my face in
the sink down on my lap, I'm not going to be speed right up to
speed typing I usually type my writing is usually tastebuds
with my legs up into the in the on the down the desk, the
keyboard on my lap, and I use ones with the trackpad
and your pants around your pants around your ankles.
Comfortable, and then I just type away but when I have to
when I'm like, you gotta this is gonna be slow typing
really. So you lean back with your feet on the desk and you
have the keyboard on your lap. That's how that's how you type
normally Yeah, that's the way when I first got to computer it
before there were mice there were you know, that's where you
would do it and it's actually very comfortable. And so then
when the mouse came along, it was like, oh, no, up and down,
up and down. Board. Save the bacon. Yes, true. So when they
came up with a trackpad keyboard or you know or any or even the
ones with the with the other pad. I could do the same You
keep doing that. And also you get your way back from the
monitor. I'm like, I don't know, four or five feet away from the
monitor. And so you have to like really exercise your eyeballs to
be able to read anything on the screen.
Have you considered one of those things called?
My eyesight has improved? Oh, sure.
But have you considered it's an it's a new device is called a
laptop?
What would it what? How am I going to leave with my day with
a laptop? It'd be good, heavy and hot. Forget it.
You know, this is exactly why they developed him. He's got
this outcome as
a cheap substitute for desktop space saving. And you know, for
people didn't want to actually have a real laptop. Okay,
laptop, I can't type with a laptop in that position. Yeah,
of course you can. Now they're perfect for that.
All right. But you need as you need something to stable you
don't need that, that awkward screen. Anyway, that's just what
I do. John,

that?
I don't know. But he shouldn't. Is his in Cincinnati. Gorgeous

mentioned him last week. And he's live in Hong Kong,
apparently. And it's unlimited. Anyway, that's our group.
Well, you know what, that's a great group. And it's a very
nice Valentine's gift. It's highly appreciated as I
certainly have had some additional costs.
I wouldn't say yeah, you had to move everything you had that you
owned in San Francisco. You moved it down there. Yeah.
And really, the thing that I was most excited about was the
connection. I swear to God, like, I'm gonna get a really
blast and look, we've upgraded everything the stream connection
is upgraded. What was that? What was your What were you running
the stream at before? 32? Oh,
yeah, I mean, still if I go on the road, I'm still gonna have
to keep it down with 32 kilobits because of hotel connections and
stuff. But for here at the at the hilltop watchtower,
fantastic. You sound great. I mean, who knew you had a voice?
I did. I listened to the horror which show
which you can hear on no agenda. stream.com So thank you very
much to our executive producers Robert b Lee is our executive
producer with his wife. Then we have Executive Associate
Executive producers. Ian Seamus from Ian sheamus.com Indira
Hoffman Paul Rudkin, Luca Hopkinson, Dylan Rebello, Eric
kurta and China Niels all of you are producers for episode 174
have no agenda executive producers, I should say, please
feel free to list that on your resume will vouch for you. And
once you become a night, by the way, then you get phone numbers,
right. And we'll actually do reference calls and stuff.
I do we're gonna have to put it up to a vote of the roundtable.
I think I think the the Knights will be okay with it. It's kind
of good. We'll find out what it is. It has been proven to get
you jobs. Yeah, a
couple of letters. Somebody was talking about that. And we got a
note in the email by the guy who's our friend who was from
New Zealand came out and saw set that maybe offices, gave us some
contribution and found $30 On his way home.
I don't know. Don't you love that? 30 I mean, how often do
you find 30 bucks on the street?
Heard often enough.
We also have some PR associates for this morning. Oh, yeah. So
the first one is mainly in Dutch. But it's short. It's
Hendrik Smith, who was at a symposium where they were
talking about conspiracy theories. And, and he was
actually arguing with, I think, the editor of the foolish
chromed which is, you know, probably the most respected
leftist it's kind of like the Guardian, I would say of the
Netherlands. So bit of a commie thing but you know, they've been
around forever. And he was saying hey, you know, you guys
just don't write about stuff that you deem to be conspiracy
theory. And of course, he worked us in so listen to our Dutch
listeners will appreciate this. Blame is not announced.
Websites, the door to door contact, MacIntyre, hatred and
hope, accomplish this kind of website, job law, job hooter.
He's here for VR change. Hi, no agenda. Yay. There it is. Pretty
cool. Yeah, no, it's awesome. And, and our buddy Maynard from
Australia. He sent me a note, he says, it's unbelievable what's
happened with the in the morning meme. He's even doing it without
being conscious of it. So he's being tossed to by one of his
colleagues on ABC Radio, Australian Broadcasting Company.
And he said he actually had to go back to the what they call
the logger, which is this. It's a machine essentially the just
law. This just recording
everything is straight. It takes it picks up the stream and puts
it on a cassette. Yeah, well, I don't think yes, nowadays.
Yeah. And I think the whole point is, it's actually logged
by hours. So if you want to go, you know, fast forward to a
certain clip, just kind of log into a little database. So
here's what he found himself doing. He says it was completely
subconsciously, but I find that hard to believe. I mean, can you
imagine well, let's listen to it and then I'll give you my
opinion. The bassoon that indicates it's time for Planet
manos. What we're
doing here grooving slowly. We are very slugger and I was I've
been driving around the hunt. And I was up at scone this
morning, in the morning. And then before that.
You know, do you think the guy is like, in bed with his
girlfriend going? Oh, yeah, baby. Oh, that's it in the
morning.
It's possible. It is
possible, but like, whoa. So Hendrix, Schmidt and and our
buddy made it from ABC. Both PR associates for this episode have
no agenda. It's appreciated, because that is as good as a
donation often.
Yeah. What we need is more listeners because to get the
word out is important. Yeah. And
it's a very simple formula. First of all, just to get the
word out is important. Second of all, it really helps us because
we know that approximately 1.5% of all listeners donate to the
show. So we have more listeners than then obviously it's going
to help
Oh, this is funny. It's got a tweet saying I missed a misspelt
no agenda stream Netcom. I gotta go put this back in.
Meanwhile, let me tell everyone about our formula. It is so
elegant is very simple. Our formula is this. We go out for
yet people in the mouth. That's right. And we do it twice a week
you can take that to the bank. So you know there's a bunch of
murder stories this week. Really? Well first of all, you
start off with the one that got my attention about this trend. I
mean, first of all, some guys showed up at some restaurant and
then there's this crazy star which I have a clip of, which is
kind of gross.
This is the 11 year old. Yeah.
Going to play there. Yeah, play it.
Let's check in again with our legal guys. We're gonna begin
with a pretty disturbing case involving a an 11 year old who
was believed to have shot and killed his father's fiance. The
child is now 12 Our league guys are back with us. Avery Friedman
is a civil rights attorney and law professor joining us from
Cleveland and Richard Herman is a New York criminal defence
attorney and law professor joining us from Las Vegas. We're
looking at the images right now of the crime scene. And there
was also the mug shot of this now 12 year old Jordan brown
the mug shot of I mean, you can't do that of a minor.
Apparently. That's crazy. Um,
so Richard, what
is the charge that is being considered is it Versary murder?
It's to counsel this homicide Fred for not only the woman but
for the eight month old foetus.
It's a classic circumstantial case. He got a shotgun for
Christmas. It was the gun that was in the house. The ballistics
match the gun. The seven year old daughter of the of the dead
woman said this boy did it. That's the testimony they have.
Wait a minute. So the story as I understand it, is this 11 year
old got a shotgun for Christmas. Yeah.
So we go right into it. Yeah, so So you gotta check out for
Christmas apparently was jealous about this woman who was dating
her his dad. And I guess he hated her. And so he had I
guess, late in the night or whenever she was sleeping in bed
and he put the shotgun up against her head and blew her
head off. And
we have a mug shot of the kid but we do we have a picture of
that. No, no, I
don't think we will.
I have a hard time believing this. I mean, this sounds so
much like a plant for the anti gun lobby. I mean, look at all
these beautiful pieces that fit together and well first of all,
what what Father gives his 11 year old shotgun in Nevada I
might remind room Nevada, this is not like Montana. And, and
doesn't have it secured and locked up properly and under
supervision. That just makes no sense. I mean, yeah, it's okay.
I mean, if you're giving your first firearm, the parents are
supposed to supervise children. You can't just say oh, here it
is be careful kid. That's just ludicrous.
Now the other weird story there's a couple miscellaneous
shootings here with the other weird which I don't have a clip
for I did have it I don't know where it went. But a professor
at the University of Alabama walked into a meeting a female
sociology professor armed a yes of the teeth with a nine
millimetre. And they didn't grant her tenure. So she shot
six people in the meeting killed three of them. Again, you know,
guns, but but this is an interesting story. Because this
goes back apparently the Fox had turned up the fact that she had
already killed her brother some years earlier. With a shotgun.
The story goes as follows. She shot whoever was witnessing this
sort of trip, there was a shotgun blast in the bedroom.
And then argument ensued between her and her brother. Then she
shot Gundam in the chest. And then apparently before leaving
and running off, she blew his head off with another blast. And
she got off as an accidental shooting because the former
police chief of like was Boston or some town some little town in
Massachusetts. This is a Massachusetts just dropped the
case. She ends up in Alabama with the you know, with a nine
and shoot set three kills three people. Yeah, this is like a
crazy story. And
I don't know. I mean, there's a lot of there's a lot of a lot of
pieces to that story. I think the Nevada story is just so much
more interesting and 11 year old with a shotgun in the house
unsupervised just makes no sense.
Yeah, there's some well, that your dolly stories are cropping
up right now and again, and I'm noticing you know, there's
there's there's two things that are going on. One is the anti
gun lobby is doing what it can to, you know, just basically
disarmed the public. And at the same time, we're getting a whole
bunch of we're getting more military coverage.
Well, yeah, Actually, I was going to say, Have we really
gotten more military coverage? Because there was a massive,
massive pre pre communicated attack on the Helmand Province
in Afghanistan. That, you know that it's very interesting to
read about this, you know about this huge surge they did. I have
a clip. Oh, nice, because I have a theory about it. So where's
the
clip may solve and she will have your theory in it. Okay, so
let me just, let's just get some of the facts here. 15,000 sorts
of soldiers strong, which was not just us, but apparently also
UK operatives. And it concentrated on the town of
Marcia, which, in most stories, you'll see mentioned as a
Taliban stronghold. But there is something else going on with
Marcia.
And yes, and
because the people of Marsha, were already preparing for this,
this surge up to almost three weeks ago, February 4, I have
articles of people in Marshalls saying hey, you know, we know
they're coming. We're getting ready for him, and perhaps,
supposedly told him that we're recovering in advance to to
separate the wheat from the chaff as it were. Good that
well, you know, this Well, anyway, the clip kind of says we
sell it based if anyone had listened to our show for a while
and they hear this good, they're gonna guess they're gonna all go
okay. Yeah, here it comes too early in an operation.
Taking a look at a map. Marcia is in southern Afghanistan about
360 miles southwest of Cabo. It is also a key area for drug
traffickers. Helmand Province is known for producing two thirds
of Afghanistan's Poppy crop needed to make heroin, which is
also financing the insurgency. A White House spokesman says
President Obama has received multiple updates from the White
House Situation Room on the operation and Marsha, and is due
to speak with national security adviser Jim Jones tonight about
this operation.
There you go. So it is so of course, they had to announce and
say hey, we're coming because we're coming for those poppy
fields. So don't burn them down. Protect them. I got I got some
great pictures from Marcia have a good like 12 year old kid
sitting peacefully amongst the poppy fields, and that
it's just like, a shotgun for them.
It's like how and by the way, they're in bloom. So once
they're in bloom, why isn't that too late? Then?
You know, I read we did this about four months ago before
they were going to do the October because October is one
of them did that you harvest those seeds I think twice a
year. So I think they wanted to harvest times is like the first
of November. I think there's another one in first of March or
April.
It's like this picture I just saw.
But you know the troubles I don't remember all the details
now, but I'm not sure that it is a dead bulb underneath the
flower that Wow.
Beautiful isn't the right white ones.
I saw there was a couple there's occasionally you'll see in the
red ones aren't? Isn't it? Why the red ones you see in the
United States? And there was a stunning plant?
No, it's It's beautiful. I remember. I mean poppies kind of
can grow anywhere, right?
Oh, yeah, you can affect it until recently. They had to
radiate or do something. Because when you bought poppy seeds from
the spice shop for your poppy seed rolls. Yeah. Those are
those puppies. Were the good ones. Yeah, so you could take
the take the box of the puppies and throw them out your backyard
and have a bunch of opium poppy.
So how can we don't grow opium? stateside? Why does it all have
to mean Afghanistan?
Has to do with the I think maybe it optimises there or maybe you
can set up those facilities to make the heroin easier.
Oops, he's still there, John. Oh, wow. What just happened?
Okay, we're talking about poppy seeds and the connection just
broke. Do you have a connection Mick? Did you kick something do
something nice back hold on hold on, John. You there. Yeah. I
swear to God, we start talking about the poppies and my
connection went down. I'm not kidding.
Well, it's just it's a coincidence. Coincidence? I
think not.
That's crazy man. The minute we start talking about you know,
can't you just grow poppies anywhere? But you know, the guys
are just sitting there going like, we have we have a fix on
him. Okay, he's moved. Apparently from San Francisco.
We can no longer or lock the doors on the amendment of
security containment. So he's up there and the hilltop
watchtower, they're talking about drawing poppies at home,
disconnect disconnect, pull the plug, pull the plug.
So anyway the you can use to be able to just grow them. I mean,
Trump is a disrupter heavy labour intensive process. I
don't think it's trivial to make the I mean, I there were some
poppies growing in a lavender field in scrim Washington that I
saw around yeah, actually took pictures, I should send it but
post them. It's like one of these puppies because he So this
took like opium poppies, and by the way, they're very tall. So
you're still not
answering the question is can we actually I mean, why? Why don't
we just grow them everywhere?
Because it's illegal.
It was marijuana. I mean, we don't have a problem growing
that can be grown indoors can you do under lights Poppy
is that you know, if you had a big poppy field instead of a
marijuana field, you'd lose money on the deal. In the
marijuana field, you just pull down the plant and start selling
chunks of it.
Just smoke it just
cut and little buds you gotta
work No, no, you're right. I'm sorry. It's work. What am I
thinking? That's a work
specialist back there.
So let me just say it's very clear what is going on here.
This whole raid which was Yeah, I have the Missy I have an
artist. This is the if you look at this article that I sent you
John actually says it's the worst kept secret in Afghanistan
the major offensive set to begin with within a few days. This is
posted February 4, if not a little post, if not ours will be
for Marja, a district just 15 miles from Helmand Province
provincial capital. Like Chaga Lashkar Gah as like an eschar
go, Lashkar Gah the military has been scattering leaflets. Abroad
hints everywhere else seemingly hoping that the insurgents will
follow recent patterns and melt away yet right I'd like to see
what was on the leaflet
Hey, you gotta guess copy of the leaflet Yeah, for sure. Yeah,
that'd be interesting to see but you know the thing is, I think
it was like we're coming to get you Taliban here's a beer if you
want to get out of town while we go pick these poppies it's okay
come no one sees this
gene Mackenzie and as easy a mark to solve he apparently see
it
here but they're not really linking to me if you look at the
whole story is not actually saying they're saying oh, well
we have to go get the poppies because that's funding the
insurgency a bull crap its funding the CIA and Wall Street
was doing a good job
and no it's not Wall Street is not doing so good. Well, maybe
we
did it up to production let me there's some other action it's
going on what was my son was telling me about some crazy the
talk the more toxic oh, by the way, click on a link on that
page that says The Dutch are cracking down on the marijuana
trade war and see what it says what does it say that picture?
Where does it say that it's right next to it on that and
that on the right just right of that article? It says Dutch
cracking down on marijuana
maybe I have a different page maybe it's dynamically generate
says most
popular just under the email article print version at a
Reddit I don't have it man. Are you? Are you well? That seems
click on that link you sent me. Yeah, I'm
on that link. I'm
looking at it right now. And there's no most popular. Oh,
okay. Well, here let me just send you the link you're gonna
crack up.
Okay, Dutch cracking down on on marijuana. Yeah, that's what it
was. Okay, well, would you send it already?
No, I'm just cutting it Geez.
Just it's Command L command alt tab and then to Skype and then
control
is right there. You got it.
takes you forever old timer.
You push what?
Some of Amsterdam. What didn't we talk about this just
yesterday? No, but look at the picture. It says free Adam.
Okay, that's funny. That's a good picture. Yeah, you know, we
identified something interesting as our producers have been
emailing in about the wacky weed so this was the story on
Thursday show about this air traveller who got arrested
because he was flipping out on weed and of course I highly
questioned that probability being an expert and
now they're trying to we're gonna see like we said before,
we're gonna see a lot of propaganda about this because
for some reason they do not want to Calif forcing us to pass the
legalised marijuana referendum. COVID Listen
Yeah, so I agree with you on that but I have received a
number of very disturbing similar emails from our audience
listeners producers and apparently potheads. Dude on
whenever. Whenever it starts with Dude, you're not doing yet
dude. Dude on episode 173 You're talking about the guy flipping
out on a plane on weed. Well, not quite the same thing my
girlfriend had a similar experience a few weeks ago. We
don't smoke much but have been regular smokers for a pretty
long time. She literally took two toks and flip the F out for
18 hours straight. I had two hits of the same bowl and I was
fine. But she completely flipped. She wasn't violent, but
she was way paranoid. Yeah, dude, that's kind of
like, sounds like PCP. Well, and this is
so he even says that he thought it might be PCP but he smoked
the same wheat and it didn't affect him at all. Well, and but
I'm thinking John, could it be a binary thing where maybe it's in
combination with something else? That you have some other
substance? like McDonald's french fries.
People got to go back to show 140 to get that reference. Yeah.
So a doctor emailed in. Okay, listening to the last episode.
About the guy in the San Francisco flight who double
dosed on weed you gave two reasons why he acted like that
one it was laced to it was a bullshit story. Well, as a nurse
I'm sorry, in a drug alcohol rehab and psychiatric facility
we've got quite a great audience don't wait John, we can get
hooked up anywhere. I give you option three. The most likely
because I see it all the time in Southern California. He was some
psychotic guy who happened to get a script for medical
marijuana. The guy would have done that regardless even if he
had smoked before the flight or not. So what this person is
saying is if you're already kind of psycho, then the weed can
make it worse but this makes no sense because I've never seen
that you've never you never after the Reefer Madness
campaign of the was that the 30s John Yeah Late 30s Late 30s
which of course was meant was built up by the paper people
yeah by Hearst wasn't it first?
Yeah first and then to Anslinger working for the government
because
they didn't want cheap paper being made out of hemp hemp,
right? So then they made up this thing about Mexicans raping and
killing women and kids going crazy and killing each other.
But really if you really go if you really look at the news
reports you just don't see very often guy smokes joint goes on
killing rampage by the
way. Here's the problem with the reefer madness I don't think
they ever got they shot the movie wasn't about killing was
about going crazy and going nuts sexually. And so you'd have
these guys smoking this a GREAT movie I want you to watch it
just to get the secondary message is goes like this A
guy's normal, shy character and he goes to a party and there's a
bunch of hotties there and then they started smoking dope this
morning and the girls go crazy. And they're all without saying
it. They're all apparently all having wild sex.
Which is like a good thing.
I'm thinking what is the teenager think? Wow. Smoking
pot. I gotta
I gotta get me some of that.
Yeah, I think it was a poorly done document well, not
documentaries of fictional bullsh crap story, but I think
it was I think the message I think they got gave the wrong
message.
It was a thinly veiled endorsement is what you're
trying to say?
Yeah, yes, exactly.
Meanwhile, while all of that of course is being outlawed, we
have the vaccines fourteens dotnet website John, which you
must take a look at.
And there's also by Ellie on that there's also a bunch of
Valentine billboards around get it get a date for Valentine's
got some of that in the show and what is the name of this thing?
It's here I'll send you the link because it's such a crazy when
you can't even spell it vaccines fourteens.net You have to look
at this
little brother so my they're going for broke with this. So
they've got the NBA and the WNBA cares. Yeah, so this is Relenza,
HPV, meningitis pertussis.
And what is pertussis? That's a respiratory diseases, whooping
cough, isn't it? What you get anyway, and this is a different
version I thought was whooping cough. Well, the
whole point though, is that essentially here they are. Once
again propagating drugs with vaccines, which we know is like
the big that's the big pipeline they've got like the Benetton
kids here on this on this website. Now, here's the
interesting thing. Who is vaccines for tiens.net What do
you think owns that domain name? John?
Pfizer? No,
it's even better than that. It's publicists. Multimedia. Yeah, of
course. Of course, of course public relations. There you go.
And
see what you can do.
Yeah, it's, it's pretty weird. And then on top of that, there
are now some legal bills in New York that are pending. If
passed, these two bills in New York State would allow health
care practitioners to vaccinate children under 18 against HPV
without their parents consent. Because of course, the the deals
either
way is targeting to black audiences of MBA endorsement.
Everybody in this picture is black, except one. I know I
think everybody laughs She looks like you know, she's black. So
here's how it works. Let me explain. And this is this is
really terrible. It is abhorrent, I think, is the word
you would use. So the way the way this is coming down is that
Gardasil and well, basically Merck and GlaxoSmithKline. So
they get the approval for this, and they've gotta sell it,
they've got to move this stuff. It's like, it's like 200 bucks a
shot, you have to get to this is big, big business. This is
really important for their bottom line. They're putting out
40 to $50 marketing kits in dorm rooms hanging on doors. They're
giving away $75 shopping sprees to kids in malls, and now
they're trying to DRAM through legislation. And you're right,
it is targeting the black audience because they think it's
an easy target. No, by the way, let's be like Mike, the NBA
endorses it. It's disgusting. It's absolutely disgusting.
Well, the black community has to be targeted a little bit because
there is a undercurrent within the black community that all
this is bullcrap. And it's just people. Just the white man
trying to kill some black men in some.
And that's what it is. Yeah, that's
the joke of it.
Haha, real funny. But in the meantime, when you actually get
the NBA, the NBA to endorse this. You know, that's like, you
know, we know the NBA helps sell tennis shoes and sneakers. So
yeah, it's a slam dunk for HPV and influenza.
And dunk No pun intended.
No, I try.
Okay, yeah, that's bad. That's bad. Oh, well.
No, it's It's beyond that. It's, it's highly irritating. And I
think someone should call them on. I mean, can we? Are we the
only people that see through this this scam?
Yeah, I think most of our listeners so they see stuff like
this. Red flags go up all over the place. Wow. Yeah. Who knows
how effective it is, is a crappy website that just showed up?
Nobody, probably nobody goes to it's one of those things where
publicist, whoever it is, that puts it up gets that being the
NBA for a bunch of money. And then there's black people wipe
anybody who's gonna go to this website? Well, but there's
a bigger there's a bigger organisation behind it, which is
the
US government,
society for adolescent medicine.
Oh, well, we need to look into them. Well, it's
adolescence, adolescent health.org. Is, is what it is.
And they call it Sam, a multidisciplinary organisation
of health professionals who are committed to advancing the
health and well being of adolescents by killing them. And
their family. There's an annual
population control issue here.
There's there's an annual meeting in the in Toronto on
April 7, adolescent clinical care how to kill your teens with
an injection. That's nasty Sam society for adolescent medicine.
Lovely.
Also the name of a StrikeForce missile
surface to air missile, I think is what it is.
Yeah, that's what that's what it is the SAM system so that's our
new douchebag. Yeah, they say douche bag after you name
somebody's name. I don't think you just do a generality about.
Okay, okay, let me try this. John C. Dvorak. doesn't quite
work. So, can we just stay away? I
have a pet peeve.
Before we do that. Can I just stay on hold for one second? No,
go ahead. No, no, no, please. I would not
want that unless you got something good to say John Cena
borax I really actually well, you know, I have actually a
couple today but this one really bugs me. So I got this paper
because I had to put it into print on the printer from print
works recycled multipurpose paper with a big lead picture of
a leaf on the cover and, and an element tree, a big fan of his
recycle symbol and another recycle symbol is all printed in
green. And it's packaged in plastic. How is this recycling?
It's it's impossible to open stick plastic packaging around
this recycled paper. This doesn't sound like recycling to
me. It's a scam. Anyway, that's it.
John, hold on a second. We have a stream fail apparently.
Oh, yeah. The stream somebody said the stream went down.
Although
it looked like it was broadcasting to me. Hold on. Let
me just set it up so people don't get all pissed off. It's
worth it. Oh, no. No, me. Wait a minute. That didn't work. Bear
with me
try that again. Okay, that's it. That's just bring it back up.
Okay, good. Sorry about that. So just so people can
What are you doing? Typing a Twitter are saying that you
started the stream?
Okay, do it do your pet peeve of the day again,
the pet peeve of the day is that I bought this recycled paper
that's got all these logos all over it. And it's recycled this
way. It's Elementary and Print Works recycled paper, a picture
of a leaf designed for everyday use contains recycled this and
that. And it's in its packaging this plastic package. It's
plastic
kind of recycling is this?
Yeah, it's faux green is what we call that. So green. Anyway.
Alright, so for those of you rejoining us on the stream. I
don't I guess they they, we dropped out the minute we
started talking about growing poppies at home in America.
They pulled the plug, advocating it by the way. No,
not at all. It was just a question. It was scientific
research. And all sudden, the we got the plug got pulled. But
like seriously, on my end, this connection has been up for 24
hours. And then the minute we talk about that, boom, it goes.
Yeah, coincidence? Yeah, exactly. I think not. So what
else we got here? So here's the thing. That's interesting. We're
talking about the gun situation. Now I'm cruising around the Dish
Network which just cavalierly you know, drops channels in and
out of the whole thing. So 9405 shows up. Okay, new channel.
Yeah. What is it? The Pentagon Channel?
You know, you can get that on UStream and a couple other
you can always get it so it's been around since 2004. But it's
but apparently gates during the Bush administration in 2008
decided instead of just because it was originally designed as a
kind of a TV each channel for a closed channel for the military.
So they can get you know official news internal only and
so then they said yeah, let's use this as you know, why should
we do press conferences with the media and there's a really nasty
so interesting story on ABCs blotter about it bitching about
this thing? Because you know, they don't have to. It just it's
just a propaganda.
You know, what the problem is with that channel? They don't
have any good reality shows. Oh, they will they need to show
yeah, they need to have like, yeah, like a cooking show where
you're
cooking show with the sergeant guy and he and it's like that as
far as I can tell, looking at the way these wars are going. We
don't even use army cooks anymore. They seem to be
outsourced.
I think we need a reality show like you know, some poppy
growers and Afghanistan and how they're always you know, it's
like and they have the G eyes come by and new will we're gonna
attack you next week. You better hide it. Kinda like that 70
show. That would really make the channel interesting right now is
pretty boring. I was always kind of interesting. When you see
everyone in uniform when they're on screen.
Guys, given the news he's wearing, he's got a bunch of
like, that doesn't really work. I bought a suit and tie. You
know, it's like,
some people want to check it out. You go to military
pentagon. channel.mil.
Yeah, though, they have streaming there.
They have all this stuff you they have. They have the kind of
there's a bunch of all the stories are there. You can click
on them. So I've diversified
John, I took the television package from Time Warner
With your cable Yeah, yeah, so that bone to Yeah, I got the
fully legible play. Yes.
And that feels good. I got triple play. That's I got triple
charges what you get? Damn, that's expensive. No wonder
people are giving up their cable subscriptions. It's
unaffordable.
It's free high. Ah,
I mean just to get a degree is
a passive business except for the fact they have to keep up
the internet.
Well, that's not entirely true because they do have to pay the
you know, HBO and Showtime and Cinemax and they have these
carry charges I mean there is actual costs involved with all
this it's not free for them to pass that on.
So let you get the full package The Full Monty
now of course I did. Yeah, no, I've got to be able to scan
you've got the Dish Network so you've got the the channels
they're covered. And I've got to see what's going on over here.
Of course. HD The first thing I flip this thing on the first HD
I get as a slo mo of the of the GA loser slamming into the into
the steel pipes at the at the Olympics. Oh my God.
They stopped showing that I didn't get to see it. I wasn't
interested. Oh, yeah.
No, I turned it on almost could have been more than an hour
after it happened. And they were running. repeats and slow Mo's
and look pretty good and HD. I mean, not for the guy. But wow.
So what happened? He went over the edge and slammed into a
pipe.
Yeah, so Well, first of all, you forget that these are actually
kind of dangerous sports. And in a way it's probably very good
for the ratings because people go oh, shit, man, that's like
NASCAR stuff can actually go wrong. So the guy you know he
can get killed? Yeah, you can. This is dangerous stuff. So he's
near the comes out of a turn into a short straight away. But
he loses control of his sled. And then you know, he flips over
and he flips out of the out of the track and hits the steel
beam. And of course, people are like, well, you know, we should
have had the beam padded. I'm like, listen, it's not speed
that kills. It's the lack of speed. And it doesn't matter if
you hit a steel beam or a padded steel beam. Your organs are
going 90 miles an hour and you bring those to a full stop.
You're gonna die. Now you're going to be severely hurt.
Yeah, he'd be a vegetable if it was padded.
Yeah, so he passed away. Of course, it's incredibly sad. But
great for the ratings. I can just hear the executives go,
Aha, okay. Oh. Now people are watching.
So I say Nelson Ferrara just sent us an email where he were
getting to the getting money for his wife. And he said, By the
way, her location is in Brazil, and it needs to dare me to
pronounce it right. You want to do it if you want to give it a
shot. Karina, Karina, Karina. But I think
as I say you failed. Probably. Hey, what's that story? Now? We
were talking about pharmaceutical companies. What's
that story? About 11 tonnes of plasma that was stolen? Yeah.
Can we do that last week? No, no, it came in during the week.
And apparently so here's the story in Poland police. Oh,
actually, they recovered 11 tonnes of human blood plasma
that had been stolen from Baxter International. Now Baxter, of
course, we know as the company that released the h1 and one
virus in the vaccine and sent it to 18 Ethics was the 13 or 18
countries in Europe. And luckily a lab technician discovered it
before people were infected and killed. And we know what his
backs are. I didn't know Baxter was in the plasma business,
which we know is a huge business. Oh yeah. It's a big
business sucking it out of poor people and selling it to rich.
Yeah. Yeah. 11 tonnes of plasma. That's a lot of suckin
a lot of plasma. Yeah. I don't know. It's another one of them
stories that will probably keep in the back of our minds and
then something will trigger a thought we'll figure out what
what's going on there. Maybe they're doping it up with some
sort of crazy virus or some
MMA you don't know. Anyway, so it's just to stay briefly on
these Winter Olympics. So you know the story now about
Whistler, and it said it's not just Whistler. It's the all the
big snow problem they have. And it seems like and and I'm no
weather expert and I'm certainly not a climatologist, although
looking at the IPCC. It doesn't take much to become one and
contribute to on report. But it seems like the lack of snow is
being used as a global warm a pro global warming tactic. Yeah,
and for what we're getting for a rainy
day, the ones who say it's because of climate and weather
no Is that the same thing? How can they they moan and groan
these people when you talk about those snow storms in Washington,
DC, but now they can use the same argument when it comes to
Vancouver. You're telling me that apparently, well, that
doesn't make any sense.
But it's whatever hits the headlines. So we're getting a
lot of interesting feedback on this from our Canadian
listeners. So we have quite a number of them. And they're
saying, you know, it's typically the weather, that's kind of what
the weather is the whole point of, of Whistler in particular is
that it's kind of nice, you know, it can get to like six or
seven degrees Celsius you know, and it's and but if you're on a
glacier up there, so you can still ski and snowboard I've
been up there and I have to say the weather was really nice. You
know, you can wear like, summer clothes almost.
But there's no Western notorious for having being warm and snowy.
Yeah, but so they don't have any snow and now that no LD official
like oh, this is freaky, and whoa, we this has never happened
before. Meanwhile, the rest of the world is in shambles. You
know, it's still snowing in Europe and in most parts of
Western Europe, the East Coast of the United States is under
snow Armageddon. Snowmageddon, Snowmageddon? Armageddon, Marcin
Armageddon? Sounds good. Yeah. And so it seems like this is
just being used a little bit. And, you know, the target Oh,
the whole all of the i That's all the snow was melted while
they were walking, you know, they're injecting water onto
the, onto the ski slope. And they actually, you know, that
like they left the hose on overnight or something or forgot
about it and screwed up the slope is screwed up the slope
should just do the Winter Olympics, instead of regular
skis have those skis that have wheels on them? Yeah, that'd be
fine. Down the dirt.
Isn't the the Olympics isn't that traditionally? isn't
supposed to be like a truce, like a ceasefire in all wars
around the world whenever the Olympics are held?
No, yeah, yeah. Yeah, that's what it is. Yeah, it made pre
World War One.
Well, I'm just saying because, of course, we had that massive
Marja offensive that was launched during the pretty much
at the same time, the Oh, but that was a nice distraction of
the week. Now come to think of it. Yeah, the Olympic Games, the
Winter Olympic Games open up and we move into the poppy fields.
Okay. There you go.
You know, you got to pick those things where you get to pick
them, you don't have a lot of choices. It's not like a big,
it's not like a huge two months, I don't think, you know, range
of time where you get to get in there and get that get the juice
out of there. The poppies I'm talking about,
right. Well, let's find out exactly when the harvest is. So
we know for sure. All right. Interestingly enough, the there
was a story that I found in the Atlantic. Online, the business
section, there saying that Greece's financial problems,
which, of course, a lot of it was just covered up. And their
deficit was supposed to be, you know, like 3%, or 3.1%. But, you
know, after they said, Oh, it looks like we had some
accounting error, it shot up to 12 or 13. A lot of news now
saying that this is because of the 2004 Olympics, that they
went so deep into debt. Oh, yeah. That that basically
screwed up the entire trade balance.
I remember when they were putting that was actually in
Greece, I think, a year before the they were still building out
for that for the Olympics come in 2004. And they were talking
about breaking the country, then. Well, it's gonna break the
country we can't afford this is ridiculous. Oh, we must have it.
We are Greece and Greece is where it began, you know, which
is nonsense, of course, because the whole thing is just a staged
commercial enterprise. And with huge gaps between you know what
happened, and it wasn't the same they were naked, by the way in
the original Olympics, which was cool back in the day. So Well,
that was
on I was seeing the thing was the Colbert Report. And they had
the guy on who was a curator for some museum and he was going
through the artwork for different Olympics. And it was
always about the individual and of course naked individual and
then even then, in the 40s, you had the Olympics in Berlin you
had the 30s I think is when the Bernese I'm sorry, the Berlin
Olympics and was all the individual the individual then
all of a sudden, it you know, we got these crappy logos and like,
you know, weird puzzle looking pieces. And and all this crazy
stuff it was no longer about the individual was basically about
the corporation the corporations that are sponsoring it
right and they've nationalist teams how many medals in the
United States get today? We got three golds one silver and one
bronze was
there was some some weird brouhaha. Let me see if I can
find it. Haha perhaps brouhaha.
Let me see if I can get the story right. So you have the the
Olympic the Winter Olympic logo, which includes this wacky set of
bears.
Right, but somebody made a picture and put what they call
the the pet the pedo bear in there. So the pedo bear is of
course that's short for paedophile bear. Okay, so you
know, bear with us, okay. So if you just Google it, you'll find
out so Okay, okay, so you have the Winter Olympics logo, which
is these bears, right? And these bears with the with the Olympic
rings on their chest. And then someone as a joke, I guess the
pedo bear was aired is originally devised by members of
the anarchic 4chan message board as a way of mocking users who
expressed a sexual interest in young people. And so they redid
the logo with this pedo bear. And bear.org. And, and so,
mainstream news is so stupid, they're publishing this. They're
just grabbing it from Google, right? Because it's got all the
juice and so that basically the pedo bearer showing up
everywhere,
Pico bear seal of approval.
Find this pedo bear.org.
Yeah, pedo bear.org
as bad it is, you know, Bear palushaj as a rod. Yeah, that's
the one. So you see if you just if you Google for the Winter
Olympic is the mascot here
is very funny.
It's showing up in programming guides and newspapers. It's
wrong Sarah Palin book that started showing up.
This is it's it's so it's almost I mean, it's like it's like
publishing goatse you know, it's just as bad.
Polish newspaper claims. pedo bear is 2010 Vancouver Olympics
logo. Pete, Pete Winter Olympics pedo, bear and Google and then
hit the news thing you'll get. Of course, to start with this
polish paper, it looks like
they're the ones that publish it first. But unbeknownst to me,
on that way, COVID magazine a bunch of different ones.
Stupid idiots. Well, then, of course, they can't go in and
debunk it on mainstream news, you know, because then we'd have
we'd be talking about we could be deemed sex offenders as news
as news readers. It would be so wrong
Pedobear joins Winter Olympics lineup is bad.
You're surfing and enjoying it, aren't you? Sorry. I'm
just one of the things that as you read the newspaper now all
these different little logo characters. Marriage in there
are great gag guys, whoever was pass it on to whoever they were
give us. Give them a compliment.
That's a good one. And we need more of that. So we need to know
agenda bear. Yeah, we
didn't bear them in here. And there are no agenda, some sort
of mascots or maybe a series of them that can be dropped in see
the thing that would be like official.
It's so bad, John. That's so bad. All right. I think we
should talk about how people can help us find these fantastic
little nuggets of internet lore and pass them on to you because
this, of course, will get you good yucks, at any cocktail
party. If you can turn people on to the
pedo. Bear. Yeah, definitely.
And as you know, we have no commercial interruptions on this
programme, because we're interrupted enough by the CIA
and the NSA disconnecting us, you know, so why bother with
even more disruption by putting in commercial messages and of
course, severely limiting our ability to actually speak about
topics. Can you imagine if we were sponsored by the Olympics?
Oh, yeah, we'd be in jail. We were. Yeah. You and me and a guy
named bubba?
Right. The real pedo bear. So let's go over calculi gave us
money. Let's start with To somebody we overlook
idiosyncrasy is his code name. And he wants us to plug Tajci to
dotnet to t s e to dotnet,
which is kind of a it's a it's a weird site. I mean, there's
some, there's all kinds of interesting stories, but there's
a lot of hostility as well.
Ability out there. Paul Stekelenburg 69 or 6699. He's,
he has an interesting idea from donors, especially in Europe.
He's in Brita Netherlands radar. How do you say Gouda again says
he says he thinks it's a great idea to donate now before the
Euro falls more. Oh, yeah, because it only get more
expensive. Yeah, you get more bang for your buck. Brandon K,
Kaylee Luscher, Minnesota 50 Elian Hemmings and by the way,
he's in Iliyan Hemmings is in born and bucking him sure. But
his he's on the street and or something I guess it's about
innovative but the name of the street is which and WA tch
the rear end of course,
which and Bill airburst. Also in London 5555 5420 from Brent
would watch an AUSkey an Oshkosh Wisconsin home of the Oshkosh
Air Show. Sorry,
how about the Oshkosh Air Air Show? Oh, that too, right. Oh,
yeah. Oshkosh is the mecca of of air shows you kidding me? Yeah.
And then statistic 60. From Dean ashore TA in Calgary, of whose I
think it would be four but he has a long note I'm going to the
second payment has resulted from cancelling the cable. I like to
think of it as my own programme for redistributing wealth from
giant media to no agenda signed up for a $5 per month plan to
supplement my personal layaway night programme. I'd be sending
more money to the no agenda stream programme a little later
in the month. But I want to keep the distribution, redistribution
of media cash on the main programme more people should try
it. I don't miss cable. And in fact, that was out of town on
Groundhog Day, and turned on CNN to see what was going on around
the world. The top two stores with a study about how people
watch more than four hours of TV a day are 80% more likely to get
heart disease.
You know what I'm done with that? And if you're thinking of
giving up your cable, think about it that's in your cable is
like six or 700 bucks
a year. If you're lucky.
That's all Yeah, exactly. And then you've got no internet with
it. But yeah, I mean, I pay 55 bucks for the premium package
that's on top of the $30 standard package. That's a
that's a knighthood. That's a knighthood right there on an
annual basis is crazy. And you can get everything you want. Oh,
so there's one show you want to see. I'll go get it from Hulu.
And then hook a brother up and
Yeah, talk to more people that watch Hulu all the time. $100
from Francis glare square it rhymes with squares where
Deerfield Illinois Tristan Lennon again from Wagga Wagga
another $100 from him, he's a regular
isn't he close to he must be like three quarters of the way
to a knighthood.
Yeah, he's almost there. But he died just like saying Wagga
Wagga, Ray mangwa from Jersey City $50. He wants to play Radio
guy.com. And then Robert Wright, a student from West Midlands, UK
says that he and he's donated 50 bucks. He says he's a student
and you know he can't afford it. But he's gonna do it anyway. And
finally Tong Andrew, who's in Hong Kong, another 50 from him
and he did say gungho fat joy. As a reminder, that's New Year's
Happy New
Year. Well, you know, it's heartwarming to want to hear a
student from the British Midlands who really can't afford
it, but it's still donating to the show. And he's, you know,
he's a great example to his peers. And by the way, donate to
all forms of alternative media,
I think, yeah, that you enjoy.
You know, what you can you we can set up a small economy of
money that's flowing around, I mean, I PayPal although
expensive, and not necessarily the best way it seems to be the
most ubiquitous way to send money online.
We're gonna add a Google thing to because some people just
insist
Okay, that's fine. You can never have too many ways to donate the
money but you know, I do use PayPal to send it back. You
know, I buy apps on my iPhone, which is not of course PayPal,
but it is the digital money. I donate other websites to other
shows they donate 10 bucks a month to twit or at least to
that's tip Leo. Then listen to the show. And I find myself
actually you know, This is a while back was like I'm a
freaking hypocrite. I listened to in one of the few shows that
I watch regularly. I actually watch it I like watching the
video a portion I think it's extremely well done. And now
like volley and then Leo starts his tip thing up again like
okay, I'll subscribe for 10 bucks a month, which I think is
the only option. And it's worth it. It's a 10 bucks a month show
no doubt about it. It's it's worth every every penny. But
then there's websites if they ever if they have a donation
drive, I'll donate to them. And even some of our listeners have
hit me up for cash because they're like starving, and I've
given money to them through PayPal.
So you can go to a no agenda show.com direct.org/n A and
channelled to vorak.com/n A and we would appreciate it we also
will be listing all the executive producers who were so
kind as weak to give us a great amount of donations. How much
are we we mentioned their names Robert Lee. Aeon. Diane in in
Chavez and Dara Hoffman V. Nelson Ferrara, Paul redkin,
Lucas Hokanson, Dylan, rebel Oh, Eric HERSA and China net
Niels and I'd also like to say that many of the no agenda
militia who you can always find hanging around in the chat room
with no agenda chat.com Our software developers and back in
the early days pre Pay Pal we had this thing called freeware
or shareware, and there would be a little little thing that say
hey, you know can you contribute seven of course then it was
check or money order which was very inconvenient. But if you
download a programme that is as for donation and if you find
yourself using it regularly, or if you you know if maybe it's a
one off deal, but in many cases you have these little programmes
that you're using over and over again and yet caution nothing to
download and to use but you know, since I'm one of those
guys, you know, this is this we can you can really create an
economy now John, I can't live off of this yet but we would
like to and I'm definitely you know, moving in that direction
just by setting myself up for it with a better connection. But
think about it I mean, it's already 100 bucks a month just
for the for the Internet and then surely want to know our
stream costs are going up by the way that's that's just not free.
No, we're gonna have that's one reason we started the industry.
And they don't and they don't take credit. They know that it's
a write off the credit card. And then finally, Adam and John,
despite your attempts, my name was still pronounced
incorrectly. During the donation section of no agenda 173 My name
is spelled g i e l e n that's the I before the E My name was
Chris kealan. He feelin not silence, which of course is not

character shooting and getting lucky number 30 Is this last
week that I recall by the way that we did get a couple of
checks which are sent in the box and I'm thank these people on
Sunday because it was a really interesting note that came with
it that I want to read. So Okay, back to work.
Yeah. Let me start off with this one. Because when I first
started talking about this over a year ago, even you John
scoffed at me when I talked about don't scoff Oh, you do you
go. Oh, brother. Oh, here we go again. As I told you that they
were they were going to shoot lasers from aeroplanes down on
objects either on the ground or flying around actual lasers.
Yeah, this is Dr. Evil stuff.
We got a couple of we told you so jingles
one is an opener one is a closer okay you ever disagree with the
fact that they were gonna shoot lasers from an aeroplane at some
point you were
at some point and I said they were already testing it and it
was working so let me just do this again it's time to rub it
in your face once again as we told you so that they were going
to shoot you with lasers from the sky. A high powered laser
aboard a modified Boeing 747 Jumbo Jet shot down an in flight
ballistic missile for the first time. Yeah, not really because
we've seen we know about the testing was going on
highlighting a new class of ray guns. Yes, the flying laser this
picture Have you seen this thing that Al TB The airborne laser is
blank
and fly after they fire this thing? Well, it has no recoil.
No I'm talking about the amount of energy it sucks in a bus put
up a magnetic field God knows what's going on and
it's a forward directed you know, it's a forward looking
laser. It's it's very it's a highly
laser with the recall would be great.
And then even talking about it now this is the stuff that I
remember you chuckling when I said directed energy weapons.
Here it is. And this is in the in the official rip this is
Reuters. directed energy weapons use highly focused rays to
attack a target rather than chemical powered arms. Those in
control can tweak the strength involved, unlike a bullet, a
bullet or a bomb allowing for less than lethal uses, ie stun
versus set to kill. This is great stuff. So you heard it
more than a year ago right here. I know agenda. Now it's official
on the record and you won't see it on the news.
The details are so sketchy on this story. They don't tell you
what the missile was Air Force does the air Armed Forces news
agency looks like put this out or that French operation? Not
sure. No. It's official website of the US Air Force. I'm looking
at their press release. Yeah, well, it looks like that'd be
blasting us and you know when you had to be right one of these
days a single fly over and then blow up the you know the
protesters?
Yeah, no, it'll be to just be targeted lock on, just fry you.
And I'm telling you, this is how they got Michael Jackson, they
fried that guy from outer space, whether it was from the
International Space. By the way, one more thing about Michael
Jackson. Okay, maybe you don't agree with my theory as to how
they killed them. But you can't deny that they now have a murder
suspect.
Listen to the show long enough, you realise that dad actually
went on to CNBC or one of these networks to talk about Michael
Jackson, who he knew and and said I don't know why they're
not looking into it as murder. This is like right after the
thing and they just kind of hung up on
it was fun. It was it was while they were announcing the big the
big ceremony the big thing they were gonna hold it at the Nokia
arena, whatever. And they needed some
filler in the morning and on that one.
I don't think we were doing in the morning at the time.
So I got a piece of I think we were well you're right. We
brought that in after the after that
much later much later than that. So I got a couple more clips
here that I
want to go over. But do you want to do something a little light?
Well, we could do
well, you know how there's a joke that goes around about
people who do the you know where they have to do a post edit and
they drop somebody's voice in or something like that to cover up
some mistake. You rarely see it done in you know in high and
mature network productions. Like perhaps you wouldn't expect to
see it on the Letterman Show.
Okay, hold on a second. So we're talking about is something went
went wrong or someone said a bad word or whatever.
It's like it's like, and here do here we have our guest Hello,
Mr. Adam curry,
because it said the wrong name. Right. Okay, got it.
Got it done. Yeah.
So this happened on the Letterman Show. Check it out.
Okay, here we go.
Wow, there they are. Survivor Heroes vs Villains premieres
Thursday, February 11. At 8pm Right here on CBS. Do you
remember?
He does that on purpose? No, yes. No, he messed it up. But
instead of trying to make it sound, you know, exactly the
same he decided, you know, this is the old if you can't cover it
up, turn it up. That's fine baby
as possible.
Wow. Oh, there they are. Survivor Heroes vs Villains
premieres Thursday, February 11. At 8pm Right here on CBS. Do you
remember?
It was important? Here's what happened. So he says it wrong,
but it's a plug for a CBS performance. So the network guys
are all freaking out. It's like we had the whole point of having
them on your damn show was to promote the performance on the
11. Then you said the 12 and then Letterman goes, alright,
I'll fix it. Watch this bitches.
Wow. There they are. Survivor Heroes vs Villains that
premieres Thursday, February 11. At 8pm Right here on CBS. Do you
remember?
Yeah, I think you're right. It's perfect. As far as what I would
do, that's funny. So but I cracked up when I heard it,
because it was just so out of it was just ridiculous. Yeah. You
gotta come. From the olden days when he was doing the show on
NBC. Late the later show. He used to do these experiments
constantly. Were one one show he would the host, they would
rotate the camera 360 Just show he was like, flat, and then it'd
be slowly angling to the right and then about halfway through
the show he'd be completely upside down. Yeah. But my all
time favourite one was they took the show, made a transcript of
it and then overdubbed everybody's voice with a guy
with a deep Mexican accent
All right. So the Democrats seem to be quite self destructing
here. If you haven't noticed.
I'm trying to stay away from it. I feel it's not good for my
heart.
So uh, but it's funny. There's a there's a show that's trying to
make trying to get traction that is getting none. Called the edge
show. Oh, it's a it's a ranting Democrat?
No, I've actually I saw a bit of the edge show. They seem to have
some reasonable reporting here and there that it's kind of
funny.
Yeah. But Edie is just a rant er, and he's trying to get
attention. But he but he's, he's definitely like a Democrat
renter. And here is a little clip where he starts, he just
rants about what's wrong with the party. And then he's got a
guy from the nation, which is another apologist for the
Democrat Party, explaining why everything is going to right.
And this is all based this the background and this is based on
the fact that apparently Al Franken came out publicly and
said that the Obama administration's the people in
the White House the managers, which would be Rahm Emanuel, and
the rest of them are incompetent Boobs.
Boobs, you say
these guys, they went on a little tirade. And what, what
network is
this error on CNN?
I think no, I think the edge show I thought it was MSNBC,
NBC subsidiary, okay, the edge show,
I have to realise is that now is the time we are in a critical
time right now, to get something done. And to put something off
on the back burner is only hurting themselves even further.
Harry Reid is going to lose, no matter how you cut it, he's
gonna lose it, it's going to take a miraculous comeback for
him to win in Nevada.
You know, there's this is a meme that's going on. I hear a lot of
this. Harry Reid is losing out. And I hear the Democrats say it
a lot, actually. Yeah.
So why doesn't he just say, let's go get it done. To hell
with the Republicans, they've obstructed. The people get that.
They understand that? What are the Democrats waiting for?
Well, they're there. They are waiting for what you said they
need to grow. But let's be blunt about this. The Democratic Party
has bad political leadership. Right now. The signal that they
are getting is that they should be a managerial party. They
should come in and manage the mess that the Republicans left.
The fact is nobody in America, not liberals and not Tea Party.
Conservatives want that mess to be managed. They want it to be
cleaned up. They may have different ideas about how to do
it, but they want somebody stepping into act. And as long
as this White House and too many people in this Congress decide
to manage the mess rather than to address it. They are they're
playing with fire. Al Franken was right. Yeah. Political team
in the White House is blowing it Yeah, blowing it badly.
And Debbie Wasserman Schultz congresswoman from Florida said
that they could lose up to 25 seats in the house. You think
that's an accurate number?
Yeah, I've charted it out. So meanwhile, of course, MSNBC
hosted according to this new story, AD, which is Ed Ed
Schultz is His name is cheering in the Robert Gibbs and the rest
of the Obama team telling the White House press press
secretary is full of shit.
Well, you know what they actually are and I have a the
most recent briefing the from Robert Gibbs where he gives up
the podium to Christy Romer. You know, Christy Romer is no, no
crusty Romer she is the cognitive Golic crusty now,
Christy Romer. She is She heads up the President's economic
team. And she has she never had a real job in her life. She's a
she's an academic and she is she presented the economic report.
And when you hear this woman talk, you want to slap her she's
like, she's like a kindergarten teacher. She's the most
irritating it's like, well, hello class. Let me just listen
to this. Listen for a second. I don't get a shot clock. I gotta
get a shot clock up here. You gives you a deck. I hate that
guy. Deck. So he's gonna introduce Christy Romer Google
her for a second John just she looks like a kindergarten
teacher spell it is Christina Romer. Err. Author. R O M er, I
believe, missy. Yeah, r o m e. R, Christina Romer. She is the
the chair port. Chairwoman. Oh, right.
Right. Right now I've seen this woman before you have so she's
speaking I'm gonna be forcing her to eat too many potatoes. I
can tell you that right now. You know, it's like we're just
discussing the like, she looks condescending. She is
the look sanctimonious. And this is this is something that is
happening all over the place. We get these women who just look,
they look condescending, they speak condescendingly. And what
does she have to back it up? She's an academic. She's never
been in any type of big business, little business or any
business as far as I can tell. But she's Ooh, she's so proud to
be the chairperson of the of the the President's Council of
Economic Advisers isn't John Doerr on that, and these are
some people who have been in serious business. And she's the
leader of them. It's just It's weird. Let me, let me just fast
forward and we'll get to her
three things. It talks about the challenges the economic
challenges that we face as a country. It talks about what
policies were put into place in the previous year and how they
worked. And it lays out the President's economic agenda
going forward. I think, you know, I like to think that this
year's economic report is particularly important, and not
not because of me, but because of the times that we are facing.
She
sounds like the principal from Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Listen
to her.
I think if you think about the economic challenges that we
face, there's probably not for a very long time been as great a
set of economic challenges. And of course, these span all the
way from, you know, of course, the immediate crisis, right when
we came in, if you remember back to a year ago, we were losing
close to 800,000 jobs a month, real GDP was plummeting. Our
financial system was certainly very stressed. And there were
real questions about what would be happening. Right. But we also
know that there was a reason that the President had run for
president on a lot of economic issues, even before the economic
crisis things
children before the economic crisis, and the President
inherited a little this Bueller
stagnating incomes for middle class families, soaring health
care costs,
the fact that as she says so cavalierly,
you know, she's never really looks like she went to, she went
to, right out of high school, she went to College of William
and Mary, and then got a PhD from MIT in probably an
economics obviously, which is, like, interesting, upon
completion of her doctorate is according to Wikipedia, because
she's probably sketchy. Upon completion of her doctorate, she
started working as an assistant professor right away at
Princeton. In 19. He moved to UC Berkeley and she was promoted to
full professorship and now she's never done anything but this
Yes, he's in charge of the advising the president on what
to do. How does that make sense?
Now that she probably talks a good game you know, they will
always remember you always have to remember there are some
people that are you know, when you get them in a certain kind
of a situation in a meeting they can talk you into hiring them
because they're actually natural salespeople and she must be one
of them. I mean, it's it's it's a skill set that you don't have
to have you know, it exists in all all areas of of life. I
mean, there's you sell yourself to become a professor, you sell
yourself to get a job as a writer, you so you're gonna go
out and sell cars. She must be really good at this. And she's
managed to talk her way to this into this position.
Well, I don't think is because she was blowing somebody, that's
for sure. But you never know, though.
Well, yeah. I'm guessing you're right, though. So anyway, yeah.
Well, Gibbs, Gibbs, Gibbs, Gibbs, the man writes on his
hand. So what else we got here? I got a couple more I want to
do, okay, because now I gotta get the other screen back up.
I can tell you I do it little increments so
Okay, so we have also want to get to a meme I am I am sensing.
And one of the reasons I got involved with the Pentagon
channel.mil is because of this meme that I keep. I'm starting
to hear more and more of and what's really worried about this
next clip is the Wolf Blitzer clip. This has got Jane Harman
arguing with a Republican and she's not getting a word in
edgewise Blitzer is essentially take the Republican tack. This
has to do with the never ending story about the Matala crotch
bomber, and the fact that the FBI arrested him and then within
55 minutes read him his Miranda rights, and everybody's all
upset about it, because we shouldn't be waterboarding the
kid. And so this has become a I think this is a big setup for
further militarization of the public in the United States.
No, you don't say?
Because they want they want the military to start, you know,
taking being involved in arrests, not reading people
Miranda rights, which
was right. Oh, of course. Yeah. So of course, yeah, that makes a
lot of sense. So we make a big deal about how we blew it this
time.
And and by the way, so what Blitzer does here is he points
to a public opinion poll that was probably questionable to
begin with saying a 76% that people disagree with the idea of
rushing the crotch bomber, and then he has, you know, by the
police and then sending him to civilian court that he should
have been tortured. Minimally, we've already gone over the meme
about how great waterboarding is. So but this one here, this
is the most egregious kind of railroad job I've ever heard
Blitzer do because he obviously got the word to just tell Harmon
to screw herself and then just go on with the Republican who
had who was on the side of why didn't they you know, they
shouldn't have done that. It is old news, by the way, but
there's still but he watched the way he handles this. The
conversation between the two people and then he cuts them
off, claiming that the satellite was going down when you can.
Nothing going on.
That's my favourite. Oh, sorry. We lost you. Oh, we'll have to
try to get back to them later.
It's a long clip, but did hear it out.
While you're talking to me. I
saw that phone call. When John Brennan called you and told you
he was an FBI custody. Abdul Farooq Abdullah Matala. Did you?
Did you ask whether he had been read his Miranda rights? No, I
did not. I was at a mistake.
Now in hindsight now that John Brennan is saying that you know
that we had that discussion. There are lots of questions that
I had that night that were not answered. It was a very quick,
cursory overview. And then as John Brennan said himself on
Sunday, we will stay in touch with you, Congressman, as we
move for
most Americans, according to this Quinnipiac University poll,
Congresswoman Herman agree with Congressman Hoekstra up on this
issue, the Christmas Day bombing suspect should be tried as an
enemy combatant. 76% say should be only 90%. Say you should be
tried as an ordinary criminal, which is what the Obama
administration wants to do. Who's right?
Well, I think this this argument is, is really foolish wealth.
And let me explain why we missed an opportunity right after 911
to put a very clear set of rules around interrogations and
detentions of all of these folks arrested after after that date.
We missed it and we've been in a in a hodgepodge system ever
since. This man was arrested on US soil and every single case of
of someone arrested on US soil means that he goes into the
criminal justice system. There was not just an FBI, FBI, CIA
and
you're in the minority, you're with an IT person.
Now, but let me let me respond to some of the things hold on,
hold on. Let's let's let Pete Hoekstra respond to that. You're
in the majority 76%. But I take it that that he was treated
Abdul Muttalib exactly the way Richard read the shoe bomber was
treated. He was read his Miranda rights within minutes he was
treated in a criminal court. Let me let Congressman huckster
respond to that. Were you complaining at the time of the
Bush administration's handling of these domestic domestically
arrested terrorists?
I think that you That's exactly you identify exactly the
problem. Wolf, Richard Reid was treated that way. There were no
alternative. Since that time, Congress has passed legislation
that would allow the Christmas Day bomber to that there would
be a decision that could be made that would put him into military
custody. That way, we could have had more thorough
investigations, he would not have had the, you know, the
right to stay silent. He would not have had the right to an
attorney while he was being investigated. We couldn't have
gotten more valuable information that perhaps would have been
actionable. And we could have done things in Yemen and going
after Al Qaeda. On the Arabian Peninsula, we missed opportunity
To be continued. Unfortunately, we're losing your satellite
connection right now. But I promise both of you will be back
to continue this conversation.
Now, in all fairness, I will say I think what he meant was he
might be losing the satellite window. But even that seems like
a pretty thin excuse.
While she was trying to get a word in hot mumbling in the
background, he just basically wasn't gonna listen to her. So
something's up because CNN and Wolf Blitzer are not. Yeah,
sending a message. There's two messages that are going out
besides this one, which is militarization of the of the
general public, or in the public space. In other words, here, you
know, in other words, somebody could just determine your
military, enemy combatant because you said something bad,
by the way that there are proposals to keep people from
talking. Even though you're not even at war, know if
you're a Ron Paul supporter, or if you carry the Constitution
around on your iPod as an app. Or if you listen to no agenda,
you could be deemed a military combatant, and then you can be
waterboarded and thrown before a military tribunal. That's the
whole point.
Now the other thing is, or after somebody's after John Brennan,
and I haven't gotten to the bottom of this yet, but he is
the, if you listen to that clip, again, to right off the bat,
John Brennan, John Brennan, John Brennan, and I've seen a lot of
they're slamming this guy's ex CIA, I believe.
Didn't John Brennan. Wasn't he running the Iraq? The whole Iraq
show for the first couple of years? Maybe wasn't he the
because I've I've always wondered Renner.
That's Brenda Brenner. Okay. All right. So this is a guy who was
ex CIA or he was going to be the ex CIA. He was assumed early on
in the memory of the entry here in his bio. It's assumed early
on that some that Brennan would be appointed the next director
of the CIA by Obama, Brandon withdrew his name from
consideration, or were concerned that his nomination would be a
distraction due to his previous association with controversial
hearts CIA interrogation day. So he's a waterboarding guy. Got
it. Now, I don't know what the deal is, with the way they're
out to get this guy or if this is part of the CIA, Obama feud,
or what. But he was the CEO, I think before he got involved
with the Obama campaign of the suddenly called the analysis
Corporation. Oh, that sounds Yeah, that sounds like you know,
some blog Blackwater kind of thing. If you look at their
logo, this is where technology and intelligence converge.
Private Company in McLean, Virginia, of course. And they
have a website,
it's a think tank, isn't it?
Well, it's called and it's also good to the Logos is tack.
Probably a think tank or some sort of a money laundering. You
know, I wouldn't say that necessarily. I'm not accusing
them of that. I'm just saying, it may be a conduit for moving
money around. And by the way, I just clicked on their website.
It's not coming up at all. So who knows? Maybe they closed
when he quit? I don't know.
So more investigation needed, I guess? Yeah. No, we had
to figure out what the deal is because they're out to get this
guy. A number of people are out to get this guy. And I don't
know who is even though Obama wants to keep him or maybe he's
got something to do with I have no idea. But this Wolf Blitzer
turned around, picking the side of you know, military justice
over civilian justice in the USA on our soil, I thought was
peculiar. We wouldn't lead to harm and get in a word edgewise.
And she's the Democrat. The whole thing doesn't make any
sense, unless it's a setup.
G on CNN, you think that would happen? You mentioned
Blackwater, just to make sure we don't overlook all the fun facts
to former employees of Blackwater worldwide. We know
that there's two whistleblowers, and of course, this is really
under reported news. They now are accusing the private
security contractor of defrauding the government for
years through phoney billing, including charging taxpayers for
alcohol filled parties, spa trips and a prostitute as the
one
prostitute.
And she was really good. All right. And well, they passed
around, but she was actually on the payroll. hookers and blow
paid for you. You paid for payroll. It was on the payroll.
Yeah,
that's pretty nice. That's like a column. A bunch of Christian
the characters that were evangelicals. I mean, the guy
who has Blackwater's a very religious person, I find it
harder to leave. This story may be bogus, because I find it hard
to believe that such a religious group
No, no, no, no, these are court papers because these
whistleblowers you know, they're this is a real case that is
taking place. And so court pape, and I don't have the actual
court white papers here I'm sure we can get a hold of him Mellon
Davis and in court papers that while working in black waters
finance department, she questioned how the company could
build a government for its workers travel expenses to and
from Iraq when it lacked the documentation for those trips.
She said later, she said she later travelled to a hotel in
Amman, Jordan where Blackwater personnel often stopped on route
to Iraq. While there she said corporate officers direct turn
to coat to co Walker's to co workers to generate reams of
false invoices for plane travel at inflated rates. So her bosses
could overcharge the government. So this is, you know, here we
go. Overpayments allowed the vendor to provide a barbecue pit
for Blackwater staff parties, which is nice by the way. And
the Davises This is a husband and wife
making enough profit that they can buy the damn barbecue pit
without phoney and up the records. This is sketchy.
The Davis is assert that Blackwater officials kept a
Filipino prostitute on the company payroll for a State
Department contract in Afghanistan and billed the
government for her time working for male Blackwater employees in
Kabul. The prostitute salary was categorised as part of the
company's morale welfare recreation expenses that's what
we need to call it, John. The no. Yeah, the no agenda morale
welfare recreation expense fund. Please send us your money. Oh,
my God.
I don't know this sounded like a straw man. Red Herring kind of a
thing here that some doesn't make doesn't add up. Because
we're making money hand over fist and they're phoning up
records selling by a barbeque pit. Come on.
Well, you know, once this type of corruption really gets to an
organisation that I mean, this is low level stuff, right? This
is not at the top. So that's just cultural. You know, when
everyone's everyone's doing it, hey, let's just get barbecue
pit. Hey, let's get some hookers in here. That's how it goes.
I mean, there's there's some truth to that.
level, it's low level unimportant, because even if
it's a conviction, like I had to clean up your books, fire the
people who are doing that shit. But it comes from the top.
Yeah, no, everything comes from the top. So I see a stack just
send me an email about we're talking about the Muttalib guy.
And apparently, Joe Biden on Meet the Press just now. Made a
gaffe, he keeps. Yeah. And this, let me just read about it. I'll
read it from this. This report, you got to love Joe Biden, watch
me depress, blah, blah, blah. When asked about merchandising
terrorists, Joe defended the decision, he went on to say that
we look good in the world's eyes. If we are fair and treat
terrorists fairly, then he went on to say that we're going to
find them guilty anyway, and he will be executed. Indeed,
Mr. oberheiden coming to get you know, we're gonna work. It
doesn't matter, dude, we're gonna kill you. It's just you
get into to the head. This is how I'm sorry. This is how it
works. You know, we know he said, yep. Yeah, and you did the
right thing. But you know, they didn't, you didn't read the fine
print of your CIA contract to get to to the head, my brother.
So I got one last clip, which will help in things and this is
from Tom Hartman show. And the only reason I'm playing this is
because I don't know whether any of this is true or not. But it's
disgusting. If so, and you have to you have to, I'm gonna look
into it. But I was kind of like, Whoa, I never didn't realise
this. You remember when we did the tar and all the rest of it.
There's all these bailouts and whatever. And they were going to
put in the, in within the law, where that was going to be
passed was going to be provisioned. You had to buy
American. Yes. And it had to be American cars and the American
cars that'd be American made American, this American that
everybody got all bent out of shape about including the
Canadians who say, Well, that doesn't make any sense. And and
the answer, there's a big brouhaha over this whole issue
and they took that proviso out, but but behind me brings up an
interesting point, which I thought was worth at least
considering when we discussed this in the future. Okay,
people Washington nuts. Yeah. Well, the answer
is they're not nuts. They're they're bought off. The the fact
of the matter is that when China passed an 820 some odd billion
dollar stimulus package a year ago, passed, I mean, they
mandated the Chinese stimulus 100% of that money had to be
spent on Chinese goods made by Chinese workers inside China.
When the Japanese passed their stimulus bill and their cash for
clunkers programme. They had one that was almost identical to
ours, both required that all products be made by Japanese in
Japan, period. When we passed ours there was a Buy American
provision put in there by Russ Feingold from Wisconsin as I
recall, and it was taken out it was taken out because the first
of all the Republicans insisted demanded that it had taken out
but even then, on when the Republicans were, you know, it
was they were able to get a pass, you know, pass the
filibuster, they could get 60 Democratic votes, the only way
they could get 60 Democratic votes was because you had
conservatives like Max Baucus saying, Oh, no, you can't have
by America only in there that would be that would be wrong.
And that would that would be inconsistent with free trade.
No, so that was kind of interesting. Well, so I'm not
sure what to make of it. But something to think about. I can
end the show with that, John. Besides, besides the fact that
we have way too much to talk about, for instance, the
Department of Justice on its official website has job
listings. And of course, you know, I look there from time to
time, you know, to supplement my income, it Civil Rights Division
is seeking 10 experienced trial attorneys for its voting section
in Washington DC. And of course, as federally mandated,
encourages qualified applicants with targeted disabilities to
apply. And if you then look at the targeted disabilities, it
includes mental retardation and mental illness as those who may
or may not apply, as trial attorneys for its voting
section. What? You weren't listening to me, where are you?
You're
looking at federal spending.org But then you're going on about
it. Apparently, mentally deficient attorneys for some
trials are okay,
so there's a job listing on the Department of Justice's official
website, the Civil Rights Division seeking 10 experienced
trial attorneys for its voting section in DC, and says
qualified applicants with targeted disabilities should
apply. And then if you look at you click on the link for
targeted disabilities, it says blindness, deafness, mental
retardation, and retardation and mental illness. What?
So what course that means that there's no for one thing, it
says you have to be qualified, you know, trial attorney, and of
course, nobody that has those disabilities is one so the whole
thing is a scam. So they could say, well, we asked for it and
they're nobodies appeared they didn't you know, they want a
job. And Americans know jobs Americans don't want but at the
same time, what kind of what have they got one of these guys
just have to take him criminally insane.
Just thought it was kind of interesting.
I thought it was kind of yeah, that is weird.
Let's see. There's I'm sure you've blogged about this, but
there's still some chatter in the in the wake of Davao where
the chief research and strategy officer for officer for
Microsoft said, you know, we really should have blogger
shouldn't be licenced. Should I have like a driver's licence?
Douche? Oh, there he is. There he is. What's his name again?
Craig Mundy, Chief Research Strategy Officer for Microsoft.
Here you go. Finally. Yeah, have
a freaking driver's licence for blogging.
I didn't hear this story, by the way.
Really? control freaks want web licence to end bloggers?
anonymity? That's it. I'll put it it's all in the show notes at
no agenda show.com. And I'll just say it myself a pat myself
on the back. The show notes are pretty good. There's, there's
definitely anxious
to say that the deal we made you give me like 15 bucks a week to
say it. You just wanted to hold out. I mean, I'm not gonna get
the 15 bucks.
Right. I'm welchen on it. Dude. I'm not giving you anything.
Airport body scanners apparently violates Islamic law. Make
sense? Makes nothing but sense. Yeah, it violates my law to it's
wrong. I think
it'd be funny if they said okay, well, you're a Muslim. Yeah.
Okay. Can you go on through the line? Yeah, exactly. A cool.
Line violates the
so there's apparently a fatwa that forbids Muslims from going
through the scanners at airports. And I had the choice
to SFO on the way down to Los Angeles and I went into the
longer line and I just looked at all those people. I look
something like you poor sheep. You poor sheep just waiting and
some of them actually think it's cool. You can tell people like
kind of excited
mission that you would when they don't know better. You got a
really long schlong when you like to go into thing just a
negative buddy go Hey, buddy. Good luck with your life.
We know Mickey shut out. Mickey refused to go through because of
course she's a staunch listener and supporter of no agenda and
makes the pancakes every Sunday morning. And so they forced her
through the Uh, the naked scanner. And she said, You know,
I really would like prefer a pat down I don't want to be scan.
And and so here's what happened to say okay, and then they put
the cordon you off in a like a three by three, they literally
pull that tape around, you know the one that that is on the on
the spring roll that you pull out and hook up to the other
pole. So they put her in this box, she waits for like 10
minutes for a female assist to come over than just to go behind
the glass, which I've never understood, you get patted down
behind the glass or when can see anyway, she gets patted down.
And so but she felt kind of like no stupid just standing there in
this little three by three cordoned off box. And then they
say,
so why didn't you want one? That's to make her feel stupid,
because you won't do it exactly. And
then they said, So why didn't you want to go through? And she
says, Well, you know, I'm 39 I'm still of childbearing age, I
have no idea what your scanner is going to do. When I don't
trust it. There's not enough information about it. And they
said, Yeah, you could be right. acceptable, acceptable answer,
please carry on, enjoy your shopping experience. So I
think the there's evidence, there's some evidence that does
Millimetre waves cause cause cataracts?
Well, they can cause all kinds of, I mean, you should not have
any form of I mean, you shouldn't stick your head in the
microwave either. But it's just radiation. You know, it's
who knows, but it's not. It's not gonna it's not, it's not
gamma rays. No, it's not. It's not that kind of radiation. It's
a it's like radio waves only. It's a
look for years, I'm telling you, you're gonna get brain cancer
from your cell phone yet, please step into this box. Well, the
other thing is me for years, when I was a kid, they used to
have these fluorescent devices in the shoe store and you'd put
your feet in there. And you could see how the shoes fit
because it was X rays.
I remember those Kenny's shoes,
they had them everywhere and then there was you know, then
somebody came up with a holy crap, this isn't good for you.
And so they stopped doing it. But you know, who knows about
these things are not tested? I'm sure these you know, take the
pat down rubbish about to get just make the other line longer.
Yeah. I mean, if the man if the Muslims don't go through it, you
know, what, what's the point? we're led to believe that all
the terrorists are Muslims. And it seems as though most least
all the ones that are trying to blow up playing seem to be so
they're not gonna go through this thing. And we're supposed
to be protecting us against the crotch bomber. The what? What is
what good is just a waste of the taxpayers money,
da. And of course, it's Michael Chertoff, who owns the company,
former Secretary of Homeland Security, he owns that company,
or he's one of the one of the owners and board members. It's
his company, in a total total scam. And they're buying 1000 of
them. It's in the budget. It's already in there. We read it so
you don't have to
other key date. They have minutes. SFO how many?
Only one at SFO at the International departure, which
is where Virgin America flies from.
You know, you can still get in there by going through the
United thing and then walking your way over to the
international temperature inside the Oh, really? Oh, yeah. Well,
I'm
just gonna ask I mean the half signs right there if you want if
you want a private pat down you can ask for it. So when it when
it gets to the point where you we have no choice between the
the metal detector or the or the the naked scanner? I'm just
going to ask for a pat down. I'm not I'm not gonna go through it.
I'm not gonna. No way. No, you're right. If I had a huge
long, I would consider it. Yeah, there you go. Other people up
for the two to the head of The Week award. Sergei on an ink
cough is now on trial. This is the spy who was immediately
picked up by the FBI who apparently worked for Goldman
Sachs. He took the code for the high volume to flash trading
system. And so it's gonna be very interesting to see what he
says while on the stand. I don't think it will be behove people
to hear him actually say what's going on with this. Because of
course, this is how the markets are manipulated and how Goldman
Sachs is becoming wealthy beyond their wildest dreams, completely
manipulating the market and admitting to it so he's on
trial. So we pray for him because of course, he is part of
the no agenda militia by extension, being a programmer.
And then we have this other guy, Baltasar Garson, and this is
interesting. This is a very well known magistrate in Spain. And
he is investigating the fate of 114,000 people who disappeared
with out a trace after the Spanish Civil War of the 1930s.
And the government is up in arms about about this. The Public
Prosecutor's Office says Mr. godstone has no right to conduct
the investigation because of an amnesty law introduced in 1977.
But of course, do you know anything about these
disappearing people John
said that Nazi concentration camps were just gunned down and
thrown in a pit. They were the people fighting the fascists.
So this guy will turn out to be a paedophile. Right? That's what
will happen with him either ends up killing himself or
boat. Yeah, that'd be something like that. Or that or, I mean,
because they said that there's an amnesty thing, which is to
protect the people that were involved. But it was only to
protect them from prosecution. It's not to protect them for
it's not a gag order. So you can so they were just irked by the
fact because he's gonna He's gonna name names if he can. Now
it's gonna be a lot of, you know, probably important people
that everyone had a high risk guard for and then they find out
they're part of a death squad.
And interestingly enough, right the day after, we once again
exposed the William Jefferson Clinton Foundation as sketchy at
best scam at the worst. With high executive salary, no
disclosure or in insufficient disclosure, according to the
Better Business Bureau. Then the guy has to go in for another
heart surgery. He's like, he's like, Hey, man, Bill. John and
Anna Moran it again? Oh, my chest.
Right. So funny of Bill Clinton actually listened to this
podcast, but he
was he was out the next day. Yeah, I
know. Isn't that weird? Yeah.
He was like, he went out to talk to reporters and he seemed fine,
but I guess what they did is they it's now they they put a
stent in his leg. I thought it was his chest that was bothering
him.
I think they put a bomb in him.
Exploding boobies. He probably he probably does have moves. But
anyway, he he hopped out to say hi to reporters the next day, so
I guess he's, he's doing okay. Something interesting out of
Iceland, who of course, are being squeezed to no end by the
by the British and the Dutch for these loans that
the Icelanders refuse to pay? Well,
it was the commercial banks that messed up and now and Britain
and the Netherlands paid off the was Icesave banks debts. And now
they're saying to the government, hey, you know, you
guys, you got to pay up. And I'm like, Well, hold on that was a
commercial bank. No, but the whole country is liable for it.
But now Iceland is has the Icelandic modern media
initiative. And they want to make it like a free haven for
bloggers and podcasters. And they want to kind of make it the
WikiLeaks of the world. I liked that idea. Yeah, you want to
hear a little bit of a clip? Yeah. Let's see, I got something
here from the VCs proposes
a very interesting proposals. It's very interesting is very
important that a country thinks hard about the law that protects
its freedom of expression. I guess my my, I have a couple of
comments about the proposed law though, first of all, I think
they are likely to be of more symbolic value than they are
practical, practical, that are very difficult to enforce
outside of Iceland. And secondly, it seems to me to be
interesting symbolically that they wish to ally themselves
with United States the freedom of speech fundamentalists,
rather than with many other countries. You take a very
different line on the appropriate balance between
freedom of expression and the protection of reputation.
Well, there you go, John, we can always live in Iceland. We'll be
okay there. We might be chilly, but we'll be okay.
It's just not that cold. I mean, it gets cold, but it's a nice
place. And it's actually kind of you know, they have the heat the
place of all the geysers that essentially run through them and
they they get free energy from geothermal and then they take
the waters from the geysers and they run them into town. And so
your hot water and your heating is that so that's free. It's
actually kind of interesting.
Microsoft just
talked about this before I repeat myself, that one funny
thing about it they
you're repeating yourself.
I know. The funny thing is they pumped that hot water into the
into the shower so we take a shower you stink to high heaven
afterwards.
Well, that kind of removes the whole point of a shower does
isn't it? Yeah, those Icelandic people. Microsoft, as of
yesterday, in Gitmo nation, East Great Britain. We found the
extension pack for Microsoft Flight Simulator, the UAV
predator module. There you go reconnaissance, surveillance and
target acquisition. Yes, kids, you too can learn now how to fly
a Predator drone. There's a future for you in the army.
This reminds me of the movie The last star fighter and under an
under credited classic cult film, where apparently these
aliens from outer space had planted a couple of video game
machines. And when any kid who could beat the game would then
become the next gen of the army because he could fly, you know,
to these missions. Yeah, cool. And I'm thinking that this is
just basically training.
Yeah, well, that's exactly what it is. It's preconditioning Yes,
getting you ready? Oh, absolutely.
I think there's gonna be 1000s and 1000s of these predators
eventually gonna be flying over everywhere. And I'm still still
thought it'd be funny if at the Superbowl, they flew about, you
know, 30 predators over information.
Well, they're going to be used in the over the 2012 Olympics in
in East London. So we already know that and they'll say, hey,
you know, it says only a small step to putting one of those
lasers on it. It shouldn't be that hard. Just to shoot me I'm
not a powerful one. Just one to stun you. Hey, slave, hey, hey.
You're not gonna bait.
When you get a sound effect for the laser going off,
I do have a sound effect for the earthquake machine. Which leads
me right into our next you smell what Barack is cook. Oops. You
smell what Barack is cook. As they turn the earthquake machine
vector towards the Canary Islands. There we go.
To desert roller coaster.
I know. I didn't make it. Okay, so some interesting information
about the Canary Islands. As you know, I rescinded my original
prediction of the next earthquake machine target being
Iran and have changed that to the Canary Islands and boy,
people have really been doing some research that producers out
there, first of all, this article, and it's all in the
show notes and no agenda show.com under the Haiti and
earthquakes section, which will be expanded to the Haiti and
Canary Islands earthquake section. The eruption of a
volcano in the Canary Islands could trigger a mega tsunami
that would devastate Atlantic coastlines with waves as high as
330 feet, scientists said on Wednesday. So it would actually
be pretty damn bad. There was actually a small earthquake two
weeks ago. 3.8 on the Richter scale, it's not really worth
mentioning. They do have an active volcano. And then here it
is Canary Islands information. Okay. Did you know John Canary
Islands is a major sub transatlantic underwater
telecommunications data hub. It is an excellent in excellent
position in relation to the Americas continent, Africa and
Europe. Even Columbus thought so when he sailed from Lago Mara
towards America, we knew that a strategically located, the
United States already used the Canary Islands as a hub for its
deployment to conflict areas. It's a hotspot for CIA rendition
flights. And the reports and we spoke about this, by Repsol, YPF
2008 Canary Islands has a major 1000 million barrel deposit of
oil that they know of. So it's a really very interesting,
interesting place and would make a lot of sense to take over.
Yeah, we need to take it over
and it wouldn't take much you know, just to say, hey, you
know,
we're coming to help you Yeah.
Oh, and by the way, sourced from the chat room. Ah, as if that
Everybody Hurts song wasn't bad enough. Now, I didn't even know
this was happening. This this is this is this isn't a complete
outrage. Ah, they have remade We Are the World for Haiti.
You assure her is that a hoax? No.
It's not a hoax. I have the video here. I'm going to bring
it up. It's introduced by let's see, I think Jamie Foxx was the
introduction recorded to help after this Lionel Richie. Now
it's time to help him. So please users download to donate and
world 25 that are that's what we need. John, we need Lionel
Richie and Quincy Jones eight made possible by Visa. Thanks
guys. Lionel Richie and Quincy Jones to get people to donate
for us. 25
years ago, Quincy Jones gathered an amazing group of artists and
musicians to create. We are the ones this hill so how
did it go? Yeah,
exactly. How did that work out that original? We are the world
USA for Africa. How did that work out? By the way? It was
that was 1980 I want to say it was 1982 Two weeks ago. 83. So
it's more than 25 years ago wasn't watching the final
abolish, I gotta play some of this for you, John. We got to
listen to some of the song.
I thought it was just the same song. They had to change the
lyrics. Yeah, of course. Well,
I don't know if they change the lyrics, but it's different
people singing it. It's a new arrangement. And now the money
goes to Haiti, which by the way, it's only for three years that
the licences is valid. Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie and
Quincy Jones after three years they got all the money from the
sale of the silent no longer went to Africa. That's proof I
have that. Okay, we see a kid waving on the oh, he's waving
he's so happy helped me now. I don't even know who this is.
When Little Wayne must come together
in this thing, John, can you Google that?
Yeah, pink little Wayne, Kanye West Nick Jonas LL Cool J. Robin
Thicke, Celine Dion, Akron, Ross. rages Vince Vaughn, Barbra
Streisand, Jordin Sparks, on and on and on Tony Bennett, Josh
board Snoop Dogg's laundry list.
Auto Tune
in the chat room, hey, that's a list of people who should be
waterboarded
Oh no, though. They mix it Michael Jackson. Oh my god. Oh
my God. They just mixed in Michael Jackson singing from the
originals. We're saving our own lives. I hate you. I hate you. I
hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you is so wrong. We
just need cash. I know a lot of people want to send blankets or
water.
Just send your cash shyster show up and take advantage of
people's goodwill and generosity. You're watching The
last inside the NFL was summarise the football game from
last Sunday, the Super Bowl. And they talked about you know what
it did for the city of New Orleans and what and what not.
And they ended up going and talking to people from the Lower
Ninth Ward and they have the folders nothing's changed. The
place is a disaster. It's still a mess. People are there
wondering what what was the money the Haiti were sold out
homeless here. And nothing's going on. What's
the deal?
Yeah. And you know what I saw a little clip. It must have been
made was Insider. You've got to help me find this hole. Well, in
the show with this Gary Coleman. He was I think he's an insider.
He so Gary Coleman, who of course is is a little a little
wacky. Ever since he went wacky. He's on there on this panel
being interviewed. And he's like, I'm sick and tired of
hearing about Haiti. And the panel goes what is I'm sick and
tired of it. This I'm not I don't want anybody to go to
Haiti, they need to send it to New Orleans. And of course, the
guy's making total sense. And they make him look like a total
idiot. Like, like a total crazy fuck. There must be I hope
there's a video of it somewhere. I can't find it anywhere. I just
remembered. I could not believe it. He was going completely nuts
on the panel was like, you know, we know we have bipolar
disorder. I mean, clearly it's, you know, there's medication for
this, Gary, and he's like, but he's right. He's saying you
know, until until we get some money for Katrina relief. We're
actually we shouldn't say that for the levee breaking because
the the Army Corps of Engineers didn't secure it enough relief.
Because I don't want any money going to Haiti. Why are we
sending money to them and not helping helping the people in
our own country?
I think I've got the clip for you.
Oh, really? Send me the link. Yeah. Oh, this will be the guy
was flipping out. A Skyping it to me
remember Yeah, no, I'm not instant here.
I know it takes Oh, it was
Victoria Kanye. That's hilarious. was it was it
was Victoria and that's funny. No, I don't think she was on the
show.
This is a Haiti clip from the interview on The Insider.
Is it? Is it? Yeah, but she's hasn't been on that show. That's
all. That's all. I'll find it. I'll play it on Thursday. It'll
because it was just like, what I can't I can't believe what's
going on.
Yeah, this is from two, this is old.
Okay, then just blown through a couple of things. Because there
is a lot of stuff that we just need to mention, because you
won't hear it anywhere. EU leaders now are agreeing on a
rescue for Greece. And it will be done through the IMF. So
please go read confessions. I agrees. Yes. Please go read
Confessions of an economic hitman. Once the IMF gets its
claws into you, which of course is funded by bankers. Yeah,
countries, sure. But it's really the bankers who own that, you
know, the minute they default, and then they own Greece. And
they'll have a nice couple islands all to themselves. So
indeed go by Greece. We'd asked our our producer Chris from New
Zealand, if you could send some New Zealand news. He said, You
know, there wasn't really a lot, although, you know, the internet
is being shut down. They're kind of the same as in Australia. But
Hillary Clinton was supposed to visit. And she didn't come and
it apparently cost the New Zealand taxpayers 100 grand in
planning costs. Why does it cost so much just to receive the
Secretary of State
doesn't make any sense. Apparently, somebody's
overcharging.
And this was an interesting vote, the ministers of the
European Parliament voted down a proposal that would give United
States authorities access to Swift banking transactions
between European member states. Which, of course, is a good
thing. But more important is this was proposed, I guess, by
the Starfleet Command, the Council of the European Union,
and the there were enough parliamentarians who are against
it, they voted that down. So that's pretty good.
Yeah. Well, you don't think that they we already have access to
the Swift data?
Of course we do. There's a backdoor everyone knows that
it's made by an Israeli company. Yeah. Everyone knows how that
works. The president now announced in the New York Times,
which of course is the propaganda arm for the
administration. Actually, Rahm Emanuel announced that we are
reviewing a list of presidential executive orders and directives
to get the job done across a whole front of issues, such as
cap and trade.
Yep, they're just gonna do it by executive order. That's right.
Welcome to the fascist state.
Yeah, the Environmental Protection Agency with the
Congress. That's right. The EPA will be moving forward with
possible regulations on heat trapping gases blamed for
climate change. While a bill to cap such emissions languishes in
the Senate, so the government doesn't matter. The House of
Representatives doesn't matter. Senate doesn't matter. Executive
Order, how does this work? John, executive order can just be
thrown out there whenever and I mean, this we do we need these
houses of Representatives.
Apparently not. Now. Here's the other thing. It's going to
happen. You're going to end up with those all those you need a
permit to sell your house.
Right. We already discussed that on the last show. Right. But But
how can it be? I mean, we have a congress and a Senate for a
reason. But apparently the president can just say, You know
what, I woke up this morning. I see like, yeah, like making some
laws. And you can just do that.
If you're in a dictatorship, you can never seriously legally
executive orders land to play some years ago, and then they
started getting more and more abused. You know, I think
Clinton was a huge user of these things. And even besides letting
off a bunch of criminals at the end of his term, it just, it's
ridiculous. There's nothing that anybody can do about it. And
just, you know, unless it somehow shows up in the Supreme
Court
constitutional How does that work? That doesn't make any
sense from a constitutional constitutional viewpoint
the President has, you can do things you can you know, take a
crapping out of the bathroom, we take a leak. You don't know that
it's not in the Constitution. You know, it's not in the
Constitution prohibiting it.
Interesting. Well, do you think we're the Americans will stand
for it.
It's just the way it is. And we're going to be screwed and
this stuff is going to be kept a secret we're going to be talking
about at once Well, one of them will crop up to someone say hey,
look at this. It's just terrible. I mean, just Clinton
abuse this thing. I think Bush had set it up to make it even
more powerful thanks to Cheney. I don't think you don't know how
much abuse he probably plenty but
is this because we're under a state of emergency that no,
this is this can be done anytime. All right. Executive
Orders this is like earmarks they started off with as a good
idea. And then they started abusing it. Oh, that's pretty
Oh, look we can do it we can just start giving ourselves
money who's gonna care who's gonna notice those without the
president decides executive orders? You can do anything
once. You know, let's do I think Klinsmann did the the some sort
of a huge, just a pile of money for people to make high fructose
corn syrup. I think that's part of an executive order for free
money here, take all this money and go build a refinery. Well,
okay,
that that makes total sense as, as we've been talking about the
artificial sugar crisis. And of course, we asked our producers
to do some research. Wow. Okay. It's real simple. So there's a
couple of all natural quote sweeteners that are on the list.
There's a Susta that is now being sold. There's a couple of
new sweeteners being and of course, it'll just go through
executive order now. It'll just be approved, the EPA will have
all the power Alateen is pending FDA approval, cyclamate, and of
course Stelvio side, which is not stevia, but it's a, it's a
hybridised version of stevia. And then this is the best and
it's probably if you look at outcomes razor, this is probably
the answer why we are in a synthetic sugar crisis is not
real. Aspartame is being rebranded and now marketed as a
natural sweetener. Under the name, amnio sweet.
How's it natural? Just because they say it is. Yep.
There you go. And you Ajinomoto maker of aspartame, which hopes
to pull the wool over the eyes of the public with its rebranded
version of aspartame called amnio sweet, all natural. Well,
you can call it all natural as long as it comes from the from,
you know, the universe around
us as Yeah, everything's natural from that perspective.
Yeah, Coke is natural. You know, the synthetic heroin everything
isn't a methadone. Everything is natural.
Yeah, it's not from outer space.
Not that we know of, although that's something I will look
into. I like to
make stuff from outer space is natural. It exists in the
universe.
So that's probably what's gonna happen. They're gonna rebrand
it, cuz, you know, I think the whole idea of the stevia stuff
will just taste like crap, and then boom, outcomes. amnio
sweet, it's all natural and good for you.
I think that they're going to find a new moniker is my
prediction for today. And then we can sign off, I think we're
done. Yes. My prediction will be they're going to rebrand high
fructose corn syrup. Really? They'll call it something else.
Hmm. Hi. Well,
maybe we can help them come up with a good name. They need a
good brand. Yeah. I'm sure we can help them something that'll
be funny.
makes you fat a lot.
Sweet and satellite. Yeah, that's it. All right. Well,
sorry. For the interruptions, I have to say that these
interruptions and the breaking of the stream came at very
interesting moments in this programme. I think, Matt, when
we're talking about heroin poppies, and we're talking about
the outrage, that is executive orders, bypassing the two houses
of government, which are kind of the way it's supposed to work,
poop the stream goes. And I mean, like, I was disconnected
here, like the plug was physically pulled. So you, you
tell me what's going on? Well, you know, the helicopters can
land right on the roof here. So as long as we record it, then
we'll be fine. I want to if I'm going down, I want it to be in
flames. Well, make sure that the connection is good. So perhaps I
need to get a backup connection. So I can mix them together. So I
need an ADSL. And that will cost more money. So please think of
us as if you're lucky in the United States, and you're
receiving some of those tax refund checks, I think have no
