Yeah, so what we do I mean, we manipulate the media because the
media is a bunch of idiots anyway, Adam curry,
John C. Dvorak. Sunday, April 17 2011. Time for your gizmo
nation media assassination, episode two Niner six.
This is no agenda. being distracted
here high atop the hilltop Watchtower crackpot command
center, get my nation West and the People's Republic of
Southern California. Yay. In the morning, I'm Adam curry.
And from Northern Silicon Valley where the fog is actually rolled
in as foggy again here in Northern Silicon Valley. I'm
John C. Dvorak. Buzzkill.
Well, in the morning to you, John,
in the morning to you, and in the morning to all ships at sea
and boots on the ground and feets in the air.
And all of our human resources in the chat room and no agenda
chat. dotnet no agenda stream.com I think we're at
seven or 800. Right now. They're all charged up and ready to go
exactly the way their government loves them and needs them to
complete their valuation of $9.1 million in a lifetime. Short
term short couple of days there between shows and tons and tons
and tons of interesting stuff.
Really, I found nothing. Well,
I found that right off the bat. I found it very interesting how
the Ministry of Truth came out with the secretly recorded audio
of Obama, which I have a copy of really does not do you have the
full copy where he's talking about the White House phone
system being lame. No, because because this is now reported as
if you have that copy. No, no, of course not. Because it's
fake. The whole thing is fake.
Da da winning.
Yeah. But it's like everywhere. It's like, well, you know, he
didn't realize the microphone was
realized. That sounds like he was reading from a prop. The mic
on? Is the mic on? Yeah. So President. It was so buggy. If
he wants to call these guys out as douchebags. What balls to do
it?
Well, he's campaigning now this is part of the you know, some
genius when I got a great idea when we got to make him sound
tough. And use words like we're not stupid. We're not stupid.
Yeah, we'll make a sound tough. That's it. That's it. Yeah. You
know, we're gonna do get that compromise guy from CBS. Which
one? Well choose one. They're all compromised. Yeah.
Here's the menu.
Meanwhile, there's just absolutely. It's like, I want
the whole recording, then, you know, where's the whole
recording? Now? It's just bits and pieces, the funny ones
that's around somewhere?
No, it's not. I hate to tell you what, it's not
telling me that they released this. And then they edited it. I
know. Exactly. Exactly what I'm telling you CBS News. And you
know, that would be that's the premier place to look because it
was a CBS reporter that was an ABC was this, you know, CBS not,
they're all compromised. Yeah. But there was a CBS guy, and
then the only thing you know, they have like two bits of it.
And then there's a couple of other mentions,
people know what we're talking about. Let's play. Let's play
this. I haven't a
draw. Like I don't have a clip of it. I didn't
think you'd distribute probably would have figured I would have
had a clip of it. Oh, no, no, I
never take that risk.
Did you hear what President Obama said at his fundraiser?
Now he didn't mean it for public dissemination. But he got
caught.
He didn't. He didn't mean it for public dissemination. He was
meant to be secret,
and it was taped. Now. Here's what he said.
You want to repeal health care? Go at it.
Alright. Because we'll have that debate.
You're not going to be able to do that by nickel and diming. Me
in the budget. Do you think we're stupid? Paul Ryan says his
priority is to make sure that we're on he's just being
America's accountant and not trying to be responsible. Is
this the same guy who voted for two wars that were unpaid for
voted for the Bush tax cuts of where I'm paid for voted for the
prescription drug bill that cost as much as my health care bill,
but wasn't paid for.
That's all you got. I got more than that.
Oh, you beat me. Yeah, that's all
you got. That's all you got? Oh, no, no. So
there he is. There he is. So finally, after four years, you
have a slide whistle. Congratulations, child. I'm so
happy for you.
I'm a little slow on the draw. Now the one that I really
wanted, maybe was this in Chicago where this took place?
Was that where this recording is from?
I'd already died somewhere. Okay,
because because then this is a report. It took place in the
White House Studio.
I'm sorry, what am I thinking? That's why in the White House
Green Screen Room. Donors in his hometown of Chicago, he said and
I wish this is the audio I want. He says we can get our phones to
work. Come on, guys. I'm the President of the United States.
Where's the fancy buttons and stuff and the big word the big
screens come up. It doesn't happen. I always thought I was
going to have like really cool phones and stuff. Wow, that's a
good. That's why one of the
one Yeah. He says, that's an embarrassing clip. So they
wouldn't play that. No, of
course not. This is why, you know, it's not true. He goes
even further answering questions about bottlenecks and technol
technological innovation. The president says, well, technology
purchasing throughout the US government is horrible is true
in the Pentagon. It's true in the agencies. It's true in the
Department of Homeland Security. He did, however, say that
federal government workers were on the whole smart and
dedicated. It's like really is, you know what? So anyway, so
here's the other clip of audio that I got that I that I liked,
because I saw this guy being interviewed by Wolf Blitzer, I'm
sorry, it's a Blitzer exclusive interview with the Emir of
Qatar, or you say Qatar, Emirates, his Qatar, and
whenever you say Qatar, like I always have to think of a when I
was a kid, we had a neighbor whose dog was named cutter,
because he's always cutting the cheese. Doesn't sound right
cutter normally wouldn't be Qatar. Sounds better than
cutter.
They saying pronounce it either way. But if you listen to a
cutter ease, speak it they say it in some really kind of a
guttural way that's different than both IRA.
Okay, so we should like your square we should say. So here's
Obama talking about and this should help you with the
Ministry of Truth, dissemination, dissection,
talking about his meeting with the Emir of Of course, he had
the you know, this is before wolf got to talk to him
is interesting. I had the Emir of Qatar come by the Oval Office
today. And they, you know, he owns Al Jazeera basically,
I liked that he says that he's he owns basically no, he owns
AlJazeera. Can we just like all understand this for a moment?
Yeah. Well, we all start to understand that he is also owned
by MI six da pretty influential guy winning. And
I love the slaves in the audience. Yeah,
yeah. Pretty influential guy go out.
He is a big booster big promoter of democracy all throughout the
Middle East. The former former former, you're saying now he
himself has not
you read over it. But he said something very interesting
listening in.
And he is a big booster big promoter of democracy all
throughout the Middle East. reform, reform reform. You're
seeing it on AlJazeera
here so he's literally saying if he's literally saying that, the
messages pouches Yeah, he's being pumped through AlJazeera.
Now, he himself is not reforming significantly.
Let me rattle my diamonds.
There's no big move towards democracy in Qatar.
This is such a hey, Emir. Oh, look at bitch, I got my eye on
you. That's exactly what this is.
You know, part of the reason is that the per capita income of
Qatar is $145,000 a year.
Yeah. So this was the story is like so the so now here's how
he's going to spin this and this will this will become something
and he said this, he said the capital income Yes. No, the
capitalist when he let's say,
you know, part of the reason is that the per capita income
per capita, but not but now listen to how he kind of like
muffles away would that mean that's our
is $145,000 a year? That will dampen a lot of conflict. If
everyone was as rich as we were, why would we be pissed off
slaves? $145,000 a year. Now keep in mind that what like 1.7
million people and 75% of you here
he's starting to do the math. Oh, genius president and watch
how he traps himself
aren't even Qatari. They're from all over the world. Yeah,
Filipinos and Pakistanis. But, you know, average incomes
$145,000 a year now. Granted, it's, you know,
if you look at the curve, Oh, right. Da yeah, there's 1.7
million people, of which 100,000 are multi billionaires and the
rest are slaves. Yeah. Then your average is 445,000 and he tries
to like get out of it sure that
not every Labor there is but but
crap ah, I'm gonna mess that up. Idiot
but he So funny man, he provides so much entertainment.
It's gonna get worse because he's on the road. And he's, you
know, campaigning now, which means he's gonna be in a lot of
these casual conversations where he's overconfident. Yeah,
leaked audio. Oh, he's always hubris is outrageous.
Do you know? I'm reminded of the hubris? Did you hear what AMC is
up to with their new reality show? Yeah. And the Department
of Homeland Security reality talking about hubris? How dumb
Do you uh, do you have?
Yeah, no, I love it. And you know what the show is going to
be called does not sound perfect. We can Jeff Smith's or
Jeff Smith. We can sell this to loosen Apollo tonto. She will
love it. And now ladies and gentlemen, it's time
for
when Lucy Apollo Tano, starring as
Lucy with the pat down of the six year old, and the eight
year old is a new one now. Oh, is there? Great. So our
president does his weekly address to everybody. And once
again, he pulls out the H word. And it's starting to really
bother me.
One plan put forward by some Republicans in the House of
Representatives aims to reduce our deficit by $4 trillion over
the next 10 years. But well, I think their goal is worthy. I
believe their vision is wrong for America. It's a vision that
says at a time when other nations are hustling to out
compete us for the jobs man they're hustling,
John, those those damn them. They're hustling again. We're
not hustling hard enough. Who's hustling? What does that mean?
Does it mean anything? Who is the word? Yeah,
he sure does. And he finally admitted that he's an elitist
bastard.
Well, we're surprised it took him this long, have a listen.
We'll reduce spending in our tax code with tax reform that's fair
and simple. So that the amount of taxes you pay doesn't depend
on how clever an accountant you can afford. And we should end
the tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans too. Because people
like me, don't need another tax cut.
Okay. I look like Okay. Wow.
Meanwhile, the other guy is who keep saying that about himself.
We don't I don't need another tax cut.
knows that Buffett. Oh, Buffett. You see now running on a chip.
And the big guy can't actually be doing anything. I don't trust
him. I don't like him. I know. Trust
him. Sorry. I mentioned his name. Yes. Sitting there in
Omaha. pedo bear. Yeah, he is. Oh, he's in Seattle and San
Francisco. Mostly?
The whole thing. The whole outfitted the whole operation is
in Omaha. Yeah. He's like you said he was always in Omaha.
He's
like at the donut shop for that one meeting.
I thought it was at the donut shop hanging out and pedo bear
central there. So I'm very annoying. Once again. On the
last program. We caught White House spokes hold Jay Carney
tripping over his word substituting Syria for Libya.
And of course, the White House press corps, that stellar group
of words Woodward and Bernstein's a. He made a funny
he was a you met Libya, not Syria. Now. He meant Syria. And
not not not. No sooner have we ended the show is what shows up?
You actually sent me a link to it as like,
soon as the show was over, I was annoyed by the fact we didn't
pick it up during the show. All right.
So if you want to know what the path to Persia is, and what what
is happening next, there's only two guys you have to listen to
only two because they are the front runners. They are the war
mongers. And it's McCain, George McCain. And this guy, Lieberman.
Lieberman does it again. And he's great at telegraphing. I
mean, can we just put a camera on Lieberman all the time?
Because you'd have
a reality show around Lieberman rather than around leucine,
Apollo Itano.
It's Larry Lieberman, everybody so he gets asked about Syria.
And I don't know if he was prepared or not. I have to
presume he was but he basically just pulled out the the. I was
asked about Syria. I'm sorry. He pulled out the Libya script.
What
should we do about Syria? Well,
let me say first, that it's very important for everybody to
understand that what we're doing with the world community in
Libya is what the Arab world wants us to do what the Arab
Street wants.
Isn't that great? So all of a sudden, now we do what the Arabs
want us to do. Okay. All right. So,
finally, we are on the side of the mass of people, yearning to
be free within the better world. Secondly, I think the world has
made a very clear statement of Libya, which is being heard by
both the Arab people and the Arab dictators elsewhere in the
region. And I'd say with regard to Syria that Assad has
not been that he has a good name, right, we've got to we got
to get used to the name Assad, Assad. So
you have to know the background here. You had the first Assad,
which was the guy around the place until he dropped into son
took over the second Assad. But the first Assad was a real,
nasty person that nobody was going to mess with and have even
said anything about him or even wrote an op ed in like a
national newspaper, he would get, you would get a desk,
right. And he's the guy who is notorious for if there were some
town that had a little skirmish, a protest, a couple of guys
holding signs. I can't remember the name of it, but it's easy to
look up town. It's, it's in Wikipedia, a town of 40,000
people. Because of this one protest. He killed everybody in
the town and then took bulldozers and bulldoze the
town. There's no town there.
Now, is this the guy currently or is this the dad? Oh,
nobody was saying nothing when he was in job because you don't
want to like get bulldozed. And so the good to go over and you
know, he just probably he's not he can't possibly be that
horrible person. His dad was a Stalin. And so they're gonna
push them over.
Running meme. So it's the Assad memes. Everyone's like, oh,
Assad. Yeah. Oh, he's bad. I've heard about him. He's bad. But
this is like the third Assad in the line.
It actually might be the third Biden I know for a fact is the
second the one before him. The dad was the one that was the
kick ass guy. I mean, this guy was just nasty. Well, I think he
was also responsible is believed for most terror operations, all
of them, including the the Lockerbie thing. And oh, he was
involved in that, too. He was involved in everything in his
his whole way. As I was explained to me once by an Arab
as a matter of fact,
the Hama massacre is what it was Hama. Yeah, that's it. Yeah.
And he was involved in just about everything. Because there,
there's one of the few countries that doesn't have a real big
supply of oil, if any. And they have something
though. I know what they have. They have something now all they
know they've got something. It's not oil. Let's let's listen to
Larry Lieberman show again. Its name, by the way, if you're new
to the show. Yes, we know his name is Joe. But for purposes of
his reality program, management has decided Larry, sounds better
dictator their decade or two, and probably is getting a very
clear message. If he turns his weapons on his people, it begins
to slaughter them as Qaddafi.
No, no, we stopped the same script as we stopped Qaddafi
from slaughtering Dude, what are you talking about? You can't
have it both ways.
We stopped it off. He
did. Yeah. He said, As Qaddafi did, as Gaddafi did, he turns
his weapons on his people and begins to slaughter them as
Qaddafi did. He's going to run the risk of having the world
community come in and impose a no fly zone and protect civilian
population just
to play now, because it works so well. And all of the slaves go.
In Libya, and therefore, Assad has one choice, and that is to
negotiate with the freedom fighters in Syria.
Oh, they've got freedom fighters there, too. All of a sudden, the
freedom fighters Yeah, it's not protests anyway, by the, by the
way. Anyway, it's not it's not it's freedom fighters. John
freedom fighters. Hey, how can you oppose a freedom fighter you
can
to create an entirely different government.
Let me just briefly, Senator Lieberman. We're running out of
time. But are you suggesting that you would support some kind
of international coalition to go in and do in Syria, what we're
doing now in Libya?
What kind of question is that you idiot, da.
If Assad does what Qaddafi was doing was just to threaten to go
house. Listen, listen, listen now the house and kill anybody.
How's that side? There's a precedent was
Qaddafi doing that John house to house, house to house.
Assad does what Qaddafi was doing, which is to threaten to
go house to house and kill anybody who's not on his side.
There's a precedent now that the world community has set in Libya
and it's the right one, we're not going to stand by and allow
this Assad to slaughter his people like his father did years
ago. And in doing so, we're being consistent with our
American values. And we're also on the side of the Arab people.
Let me let me
Arabs go Arabs I'm so confused nine Lebanon No bad Arab nouns
like good Arab. I don't know what to do anymore. So you asked
the question, John wise clip, the other scene of the clip?
Yeah, so I know. So you asked a question, dude, I liked that
clip. Well, I got a better one for you. Yeah, I'm shooting my
water early in the show. So now we know why Libya was important.
And it's too simple to say, Oh, my Oh.
It was simple but true. Yeah,
that's a little too simple. Because it was about the Chinese
and Chinese and oil. Well, yeah. But you you laid it out
quite clearly. And we know that there's a lot of people from
companies were evacuated out of Libya. But by far the most were
the 30,000 Chinese oil workers who were evacuated. So the and I
give you full credit for this. You said, Look, hear me now.
Believe me later. Listen. The Chinese were Libya was doing a
deal with the Chinese and then Britain and France and the
United States went, excuse me, we'll have none of that. And
whatever the reasons were, we have our suspicions, but that
was the that was really the impetus for going in and
kicking, kicking the Chinese out and trying to take it over.
Right. You wouldn't be on that.
That yeah, so this is my theory. Yes.
So Syria now why is why Syria? Why you
dug something up? No. Yes, I have. Well, let me say so
Chinese again. I don't know
why. Oh, it's not the Chinese. Oh, wait, wait, let
me guess. George Clooney? No. George Clooney only
if only. No. So I have a clip here from Russia today, now, and
they still are not taking our advice. In fact, they are doing
they are doing exactly the opposite. Instead of putting hot
babes in there with doctorates and blonde hair named Natasha
with a Russian accent. I live like an American chick. And I
know and she Bella, she's not winning. They don't get it. No,
they don't get it. And until they get it this, they'll never
They'll never make it. They won't. Have you
watched Tom Hartman on that thing. Please, you have an
operation or something. One thing he's lost a lot of weight
and apparently can't read from a prompter. Because when he does
his eyes bugged out.
Watch them, ya know, and he tries to hide it behind the
glasses, but it's not fooling me.
Yeah, his eyes get really big and they bug out when he's
trying to read from a prompter. This is what I call a bad habit.
Yeah.
So this woman from Russia today has Paul Craig Roberts on the
show, very long interview of which I've only clipped a two
minute piece. But it's exactly the piece I wanted came at the
very end. We have Paul Craig Roberts was a senior I think was
an advisor in the Reagan administration. You know what he
did?
No, I don't remember him. Yeah.
I mean, I'm sure he's part of the elite. But I think he's kind
of old now. And he's kind of on the sidelines. So he takes money
from Russia today. But he calls it he'd not only call Syria he
calls the reason why, and then how and when we're going to do
it basic Mediterranean.
One issue. I want to brought up you've written written a little
bit about Syria, where there is some, you know, protests and
going on now. Do you think that the United States Syria is much
closer to a Libya as far as its relation to the United States,
then Egypt or other countries where we've seen protests,
Bahrain, Yemen, do you think that Washington would get
involved in Syria?
I think that's the intention. You see, Syria provides the
Russian naval base in the Mediterranean.
There it is. They have the Russian naval base in the
Mediterranean. And of course, for people who don't know, you
know, these Northern African countries are kind of like, it's
like Southern mediterranea took me off. So now we're gonna have
the whole area, and we can't have a couple of rooskies
Floating their boats there. That's a little the Russians are
gonna put up with this one. Well, that's the question, of
course, is our fine interviewer asks,
How would How would it ever fly, though, because Russia has a
base in Syria, Russia would I mean, it would never get past
the UN Security Council, I don't think,
well, they won't necessarily go to the UN Security Council.
Who cares? Let's just go kick their ass. We got freedom
fighters, freedom fighters, we have to argue.
They will just act, they will say, Oh, these terrible things
haven't happening. We've got to save the Syrian people. You
know, who knows what they'll do? They'll do what they think they
can get away with. And I don't I can't predict that. But all I
can observe is that in the case of Syria and Libya, they have
there are these differences. If they can, so throw those
countries they can get Russia out of the Mediterranean and
they can get China out of the Mediterranean and that is
probably a goal of the people and Washington.
So you have three big players, Russia, China, the United
States, that kind of could all be pitted against each other in
these two countries. Do you think that this will escalate to
a much larger issue between these three world powers?
Yeah, horrible. She is. She's terrible. She
interrupts him at the wrong time. She's a very poor
interviewers get rid of her.
Well, I'd like to, but I want to hear Paul Craig Roberts a little
more.
They should fire
you or teach her to act risk.
That's I think the Americans are being too aggressive, given the
nature of the risk for miscalculation.
And just really quickly, what do you think it would take for
there to be a tipping point? What would the US do that would
make that tipping point?
Tipping Point tipping point?
push too hard? What? Shot up? You know, I don't know how China
in Russia will view the national interest, what they would think
is threatening, I can predict that because I'm not inside
their minds. But somewhere along the line, there has to be a trip
a trip point where you push too far. And the Americans are full
of hubris, arrogance. And they don't mind using military power
to extend their reach.
That's right. Go in and kick your ass take take your stuff.
I'm coming into your sandbox now. Okay, well,
here's it. Here's my I'm gonna give you my prediction if this
if this is good. Okay. So here's what I'm thinking. Now. I know
that the road to to Iran is Syria, and it was listed as one
of the places that is going to be a problem is called the path
to Persia. Yeah, that's it. But I say the road to Iran.
It's a really Ababa movie, The Road to around? No,
anyway. No. So there is something we want from Russia.
Yeah, better hosts on TV. That's all I want from Russia.
That's just something going on. There's a quid pro quo in the
background. I mean, it's like, you know, many years later, it
took us, it took us, you know, the Kennedy, the great Kennedy
showdown in Cuba. It took I think, 20 years or 30 years
before it was revealed that, you know, Kennedys showdown as you
know, debt, almost brought us into World War Three was a quid
pro quo that was not not discussed, which was they took
they took their missiles out, the Russians took their missiles
out of Cuba, but we took got missiles, a bunch of missiles we
had in Poland,
Turkey, Turkey, I think was turned I think it was Poland, I
think it was, I think, Turkey as well, well, why there
was some missiles that we bought some hardware. And that was the
deal. And I think there's something going on here. We had
to just kind of do a little more deconstructing and figure out
what it is because there's no way the Russians are going to,
you know, put up with this, that the Chinese were interlopers,
and they know it. They kind of snuck into Libya. They started
doing deals. And next thing you know, we rousted them. The
Russians aren't interlopers, they've been in the area
forever. So well,
the Russians and the Chinese are doing business together now in
oil in their own currency. They
don't trust each other. They're not really good business
partners.
Well, then what could it be? What could it be that we want
from Russia? For? I don't know, more hot spies and better TV
hosts?
I don't know. We will. I tell you what, I will figure it out.
Next week or so it'll be obvious, because we're now that
we're our note, you know, we're sniffing around. Yeah. There'll
be some little news article that will crop up.
Oh, that's it. Okay. All right.
So this is what we do on this little program of ours. This is
why I get up at 530 in the morning on show days. And I love
it. And you notice we weren't interrupted by a commercial
during that. And we didn't run out of time. John, I'm sorry. We
got to run out of time. He can't finish his excellent piece of
journalism. We
got to take a break. Right. How can we write this topic? In
fact, we're gonna move on with another topic right after this
break.
Squirrel. Do we have any producers helping us out for the
show?
Yeah, we got three executive producers, members of the 300
Club and a couple of associates that we want to mention. Okay,
let's begin with one. These are the people that help us produce

show two
Niner. Six, we only
got four shows left. And we're going to be a show 300 people.
That's right.
This is that's the biggie. Do you know that? We have been
doing the show since 2007?
Yeah, you keep saying that? It seems to be, it seems to the
numbers seems to be baffling to you. Yeah, it
is baffling to me. Because time flies, when you're having fun,
apparently, couple of quick PR mentions. Got a registration for
curry across america.com. Which is nice. Considering our
upcoming trip the second week of July still trying to figure out
how to get the wheels forward. I've got some nice offers on the
email. Why and, and like really nice offers like the one that
came closest, but I really just can't take him up on it. One of
our listeners has a 35 foot RV, and he's got a video of it.
Everything is beautiful. And he knows better than he's an ex
cop, ex Marine. He's retired now. And I'm like, wow, you
know, and he says, you know, the only caveat is I have to come
along, I have to drive. You know, I'll be great. I'll do
production work, etc. And I really, really, it's a lovely
offer. But I don't think that you know, I just don't I don't
get a picture really of me Mickey and the Marine. I do.
This guy is amazing. Yeah, he I think he left the Marines. And
then he became a cop when he was 49. And he had to retire because
at a traffic stop. He was hit eight times by ak 47 fire. I
mean, these are the kinds of guys that listen to our show.
And I love those guys. And he survived. And he's like, good.
Yeah. But I mean, we really need to just kind of it just has to
be kind of the two of us. Otherwise, I think it'll be a
very different type of
group is a group dynamics change? Yeah, does. But it's
very lovely.
And I really appreciate the offer. And we're just looking
for you know, we'll ensure the thing
was a big one if
it was amazing, really beautiful. It doesn't even have
to be that big. And that's pretty big. Yeah, board. And
that's yeah. Anyway, so we're still looking for someone to
hook us up with an RV. And when you look at it, you want the
marine now all of a sudden, oh, you want to talk
that way? She fears that you'll be ended up on the side of the
road.
Oh, she's 30 seconds behind.
Yeah, exactly.
I'll be like, hey, wait a minute. Where's Mickey in the
marine? John,
John, I'm on the cell phone for the show today. Nice forward to
no shit no agenda. show.com Baroness. ashton.com. That's up
there with Sean hannity.com As far as I'm concerned. Oh, that's
a good one. Yeah, Baroness. ashton.com. So if you're looking
for the latest Baron s, you're coming to us. This one I
couldn't believe was available. Particularly seen the state of
the industry? Best podcast in the world.com. How about
Rayleigh apples? Yeah. That's pretty awesome, right? Oh, we
had to put that one on our wiki page and best podcast in the
world.com/donate forwards to dvorak.org/na. So that's kind of
the new thing everyone's doing their custom domain name slash
donate and it goes to the goes to
devorah.org/and. A
friend of South of the Border don't want to be left out of
celebration of the lack of good education in both Mexico and the
USA got to misspell domains. This is Victor de de douche
without an e.me and D douche without an e.us to my friends
introduced me to the show a month back and now I'm a fan. I
would like to get them deduced. I might as well do this while
I'm at it. Their names are Julio Romero and Jenny Mendez. You've
been deep deuced we listen from Tijuana Mexico while we're
waiting in line at the border to come to work at San Diego.
I guess you get a whole show in
or two maybe they're the guys that want to third Joey
politically can imagine why political sock
puppets.com also forwarding to no agenda show by the
way, I want to say de douche.me is genius. Yeah.
Especially if it's the misspelled version for our our
Mexican friends. And then just want to reiterate that the
pocket no agenda app has been upgraded, and now has game
center support and all kinds of stuffs you can like interact
with other people while you're listening. The soundboard has
been expanded. And now I it has one for the DSC. I'm not quite
sure how to work it yet. But now we have individual show alerts
bad signals for the stream no agenda. stream.com did another
daily source code yesterday as part of our full service package
to human resources. And there's also the no agenda radio app
which I'd also like to take a look at show in the PR section
of the show notes, which also has some some interesting
features. So that's some PR mentions and of course we thank
our executive producers and 300 club members, Joseph Leaper
Edward beard house and Jesse Cruz and our other two executive
producers Hans York Schultz and Armand Boyer for supporting the
show. These are real credits people just like Hollywood but
unlike those phonies here will actually vouch for you if anyone
questions your credit for the show. And we want to propagate
the formula. Our formula is this we go out for yet people in the
mouth
same problem, everybody.
It'll get old. Oh, yeah. It'll get old,
but it's a beauty or now is it a big giant just steel butts?
Like, tin plated or something? I don't know.
I think the Congo may be off the map by the way for the pipeline.
Why we know we got Ashley Judd in there to be the celebrity
ambassador.
Well, then why it sounds like it's online to me. No, no, no,
he
quit. Looks like No, it looks like Uganda is is going to play
a part anyway. Uganda invites bid for oil pipeline. And
they've also blocked Facebook, Twitter, etc. I don't think it
could also be that they're just trying it. You know, like, Hey,
man, like everyone's in on this groovy deal. Like we got to be a
bit stern on Facebook. I want some of that. You know, and I
got no freedom fighters. That's what I'm waiting for. But the
Ugandan Government is firing on protesters so that they
understand everybody who isn't like, hey, we want some no fly
zone over here. Fire on some people. Just fire on him.
Literally, it's literally unbelievable with what's
happening in the world. I love it. I love it. Because what we
do here for you on the show is at least you understand it. And
then you don't
I have I have a couple of clips curiously about the Uganda
debate.
Oh, it's not curious and it's not coincidence. Well, I
would play the Bwana calm that's that's one of the it's one of
the secret taping of the of the of the of the negotiations with
Uganda. Now who's negotiating with who about what well you'll
hear when you hear it wanna come
get to know everybody and I want to see chief yumbo Tarzan
Stay where you are and don't let them see that you're nervous.
Run away You want to come want to come that's Tarzan douchebag
we have the we have the breakdown of the debates wanted
to
this is really really really the worst thing you've ever done for
cheap
I've got the chief said want to know God ready he got ready to
Chief I'm a Cujo. He flew out Juju and get bought bamboo. She
said he'd like to do
and that's the pipeline negotiation. One on One dude,
you was really really really bad John.
So I was watching this thing. This was the from the movie
Tarzan escapes. And I realized that, you know, I was thinking,
you know, Bill Cosby was going is going out of his way to find
all the original copies and destroy all the anything to do
with Amos and Andy. Why? Oh, because the roots of American
racism are in these Tarzan movies.
Is that what Bill Cosby is actually spending his time
doing?
Yeah, it's one of the main one of his main problems. Yeah,
digging up all the old radio shows. I mean, it's up have
we have to? I mean, is he Is he insane? This man, Is he insane?
I mean, if you want to actually have something to point to, then
you want to show this as like this is how bad it was. See, man
insane.
One of the things he's Cheese
Louise. That's unbelievable. guys insane.
I got some other really fascinating clips. I have joy
Bay Harbor.
You cannot go from two Tarzan's to a joy Bay heart. That's just
not okay.
She says she likes Obama. Awful. I'm stunned by this, by the way.
Really?
She likes Obama. Yeah, she likes
Obama.
Obama did it. The left was yelling at him the rights
yelling at him. Meanwhile,
he got plenty of things done. He's very good president. Don't
you like him?
I think he could be a better president. I don't dislike him.
And I don't think she rundown the president like in a time of
war. And we're always in war.
Roseanne?
I'm glad you picked up on that. All right. So if you imagine Joy
Bay Harbor and Roseanne Barr in the same give me this is like
scissors. I'm surprised that they didn't blow up. Critical
mass of so I was watching C span. It's what we do. You don't
have to see, I was watching C span two.
Well, I was watching C span and this very interesting program
was announced. And this is, you know, what do you think our
treasury is doing right now during this economic financial
armageddon of a crisis with of course the reality show known as
Will they raise the debt ceiling? looming? What do you
think our treasury is doing right now, John,
raising the debt ceiling.
But first this week on American artifacts. C span visits the
Treasury Building to learn about a $240 million restoration
project. And the visit several historic rooms including the
gilded West dome, the cash room, the Office of the Secretary of
the Treasury, the gilded
cat, the gilded dome, John, the cash room cash room, the Gildan
dorm
got $240 million to blow on this corner of
a billion dollars people a quarter of a billion dollars for
the cash for the cash room and
cash we get the cash.
We just need cash. I know a lot of people want to send blankets
and
water. Just send your cash.
So I think I think that Goldman Sachs is going down Johnny Boy
no bullcrap. Yes, I do. And, and I have a theory
about this. I'm all ears on this one. Okay, so
obviously, we have had just too many awakened human resources
going, Hey, wait a minute. Something's wrong here.
Something's fishy. Now, how come no one went to jail? Do you see
this all under the Reno it's a it's a means of the name right?
So the reason I pick up on is like, okay, hold on a second. It
started at the Academy Awards, but it did it started with the
guy who made inside job, right. And he yelled that out and they
want to let what is he talking about? And but then people went
home and I'm like, yeah, and then of course the Ministry of
Truth cranked up and starts Hey, well, huh? Okay, so now it's
everywhere. Everywhere you look they're talking about oh, we
know someone's got up. No one went to jail. The only guy was
Bertie made made off and so now this report came out. This
report is the Levin report. And the Levin report in that it
basically says everyone lied, screwed, cheated, messed around,
and no one, no one's going to jail. So now we have this
propagating throughout the media. And a couple and then
just a couple of side notes. Just a couple of headlines.
Goldman Sachs chief Blankfein could face criminal prosecution
for role in financial crisis. Cluny producing Wall Street
bailout pick, hello, does that tell you anything? So there's a
hit job common. Tell the Department of Justice
investigate Goldman Sachs. Goldman furious at being left
out of Glencore IPO this is where I went, Oh, okay. Then we
have on
the real punishment. Well,
that's part of it, but someone has to go to jail. And I think
it's going to be blank fine. And proof is in the pudding as this
isn't the
same as Goldman going down it's because they're going to isolate
one or two guys and throw them in jail or
of course
ritzy jail and of course,
but this is the mean is Goldman has to go down by the way, I
think is probably Citibank was going Yeah, yeah. Yeah. How can
we help? How can we help because you know, those guys are all
competitors. Then we have Eliot Spitzer, who was in the movie in
the Inside Job movie show up on Anderson Vanderbilt Cooper show.
So now you know, something's supposed to be communicated
because Anderson Vanderbilt Cooper is talking about it.
Along with Matt Taibbi, the Rolling Stone reporter who, as
we know is on the inside will remember the whole McChrystal
story.
Yeah, no, he has to be he he's on
the inside. He gets to do good work. And for some reason, yeah,
he must have blown somebody somewhere. But he and sometimes
you got to have a guy who just is really clean as a whistle.
And he you know, he's a great reporter, and he does not get
thrown in the hot tub with the cover on so right and He's
entertaining. He's very entertaining. They show up
together to talk about this. And they again, another eight minute
interview. But at the end, finally hater.
One of the articles you wrote mad, and I don't want to quote a
word for word, because it was quite,
because I'm gonna have to say the F word.
And I'm Anderson Vanderbilt Cooper. And I don't know if
well, descriptive, but but it just it was somebody saying that
basically, if one of these guys was sent to prison, that would
stop the shenanigans from happening again, that it all
that's really all it would take, which somebody if somebody was
held accountable, it would it would have a cooling effect.
Yeah, absolutely. I talked to one guy who was a former SEC,
investigator and and he said, basically, if you send, start
sending Lloyd Blankfein, or one of those guys put him in one of
those
blankie baby, but ever heart attack isn't a
real maximum security prison for six months, this whole thing
would be over very quickly, the whole the whole situation would
be cleared up. But the problem is there's no incentive for
these guys to change their behaviors, because they never
ever get put not only do they not get punished, they get a
bailout.
Because there have been any change in regulate. I mean, he
has the regulation better now is the oversight board.
Dodd Frank made some improvements and it was better
to have it than not have it. But it doesn't change the simple
fact that all you need is common law fraud on the books or or
there is a theory of profit. I'll shut up and get me some
hookers, Elliot. I don't care about what you're saying. So
there it is. I think Blankfein goes to jail is viewed as
Goldman going down Goldman gets bought Goldman will get bought
by someone now. Yeah, I think it will. And then it'll just, you
know, just go on his merry way. Nothing's going to change but
they need the it's there's an acute awareness amongst the
elite that they have to scapegoat somebody. They thought
Bernie would be good enough, but he's too wacky now. Right? And
he stole from the rich. So that was that was his mistake. We
need someone to go down go down hard and they're making this I
think Blankfein is the guy, and why wouldn't they just assume
that Goldman Sachs is tainted? They? I think they would, they
would assimilate it into something else. There's too many
guys out there. Why now? Why not just
because they're the ones who do that. They're the they're the
top dog. They're the ones who call the shots on this. They're
the ones who are going to give a blank feeling. They're
gonna give them up, okay? That makes sense. But Blankfein, if
someone's going to jail, it's going to be one guy, and it's
going to be really it's gonna be played up really big. And any
day name, the name I mean, when Ty EB said the guy's name, it's
Ryan farm. So Blankfein has got a target on his back, obviously,
he obviously did not play ball in some sense. I mean, this is
all recent. I mean, they could have targeted a half a dozen
guys, but this guy's name keeps cropping up. So he's got a
target on his back. He's the he is the target.
It's when he said we're doing God's work. That's when the
target got painted. He's the guy that said that. So he's the guy
that's got to go and then Anderson Cooper will get all the
way voted for keeping them honest.
I'm keeping them honest here everybody, keeping them honest.
That's me. That's me. Anderson. Vanderbilt Cooper keeping them
honest. Hey, keeping them honest. Uber, keep in mind all
right.
Yay. I got lots more like that. But I want to give some room.
Now you might have to take the show. No, no, no. Okay, well, I
got some more stuff. I told you the beginning of the show. I got
nothing more Bihar. No, they only had the one best best bei
heart could come up with I got a good one from Ron Paul had to
use a little long winded he was giving he's out on the stump
running for president. And of course, you listen to his
speeches, he was up in New Hampshire, he listened to his
speeches the guy is makes makes nothing but sense.
The public, I know is not a horrible, it's horrible.
And they're all sitting there. All these people, a lot of
college young people, old people, everybody's got a great
range of supporters. They're all loving him. This guy can't win
anything. Because he's obviously the media, the whole system is
against him. But he hasn't one interesting little he was doing
a question and answer thing after one of his little talks.
And I thought the blame the Fed when he's got this idea that
everything's still, we're still away from total real collapse.
And he says, We've got to get it done. She's the only way the
Feds ever gonna be beaten any old, you can play this in a
second. The only way the Feds ever going to be beaten, it's
just for one thing is not going to be beaten. But when things
start to fall apart, it's up to the public to, to intellectually
blame them for everything, until they finally are just shamed
into dissolving essentially, it's a kind of a long shot. But
it's interesting to listen to this little clip.
Thank you, Representative Paul, I have a question about the
money going to Libya via the Federal Reserve, I was very
disturbed what I read that on your Texas Straight Talk of last
week, why will no one at the Federal Reserve be held
accountable for that?
Because the Federal Reserve is a government unto itself, they're
very, very powerful. And, but they're also on the defensive
moreso than they've ever been before. They've been able to do
everything in secret. But fortunately for the two
lawsuits. By see, it was Bloomberg and fox that they did
for some of the information out. And because we had a
modification of my bill last year, we're getting some more
information in July, it does fall on me with some of the
responsibility, you know, in the committee to bring this to
light, and we will do our very best. But unfortunately, it's
going to be very, very difficult. They are very
powerful. And if you think about it, they have more economic
political clout than the whole Congress. They spent $3.3
trillion on those bailouts, you know, and the Congress spent 850
billion, you know, and it's all done in secret. Yes, they should
be held accountable. And some of the stories coming out here on
who's getting who's gotten these loans. They should be and
hopefully they can be, but the odds of them really being held
accountable. I wished I could be more optimistic. But the best
way to hold them accountable is as this system falls apart, that
we intellectually blame them. They've they've had a free ride,
they've always said that. If the economy is doing well, the Fed
has managed the money supply, right, and the interest rates
are exactly what they should be. And that's why we have a growing
economy. But then the economy would turn down because of the
Federal Reserve, then the Fed would come in and say, Well,
what we need to do is print more money and rescue people who are
in a, you know, in trouble. And they generally got credit for
getting us back out of the out of the slump. But that's not
going to happen anymore. They have to be blamed, because they
are responsible. Intellectually, the legal responsibility is
another matter. I think we should pursue that, but I'm not
very optimistic that much will happen.
Yeah, I mean, normaI.
Yeah. Well, he's at the head of the committee that oversees them
now, and he and he knows that he can't do anything. I mean, he
was like, you know, big proof and talk and then oops, whoa,
this is interesting. When he made the comment that they're
bigger than the than the Congress. Yeah. more powerful,
more powerful, more powerful. Yeah. Then they know that you is
up against you know, you can't fight city hall. I mean, it's
impossible, but he's still beaten punching Adam. Well,
well read his book and the Fed, which is a real quick read is
real nice. That's him for the no agenda book club. If you've
never read that. I know. We've talked about it before. I've
sent it to several people and they go like, Oh, that's a kook
from Texas. Oh, Right now, thanks. Okay. You
people should be listening to this guy, as opposed to calling
him a kook.
Yes. And so what he's referring to is the 46 emergency loans
that the Federal Reserve made to the Arab banking Corp during the
this time of enormous crises.
Yeah, not to mention the 200 million bucks we talked about
last week in the Matt Taibbi story to 200,000,001 of the
going to the Morgan Stanley women.
But see now that's a distraction. It's like that's,
that's a distraction. It's but it's, and now's the Libyan
freedom fighters are now looking for a $2 billion loan from the
Fed. 2 billion. Yeah, because they have a central bank.
What they can do is say for freedoms back to us freedom.
What do you mean? Yeah, of course, it comes back to us is
for freedom, my friend. How dare you question freedom. You are so
unAmerican, you I can't believe that. I'm either way regarding
Libya, I just wanted to play one thing from March 21 2011. That
is now almost four weeks ago, almost one month, a word not
used in the statement.
It is US policy that Qaddafi needs to go. But let me
emphasize that we anticipate this transition to take place in
a matter of days, and not a matter of weeks. Thank you. And
so I would expect that over the next several days, we'll have
more information. Yeah, more and more will be fully briefing the
American people and slaves.
So what's the date on that again?
March 21 2011. That's so he said what he said not days, not
weeks, but he certainly didn't mention months.
Well, so it hasn't been a whole month, last month, almost a
month. Okay, by the next by this time next week, it will be over
a month. And so we can revisit this in a few more weeks. And
then we can try to determine what his definition of days.
weeks is. Already been almost four weeks. That's
Mr. President, how many days old? Am I dark. So meanwhile, eu
something very embarrassing for the United Nations cropped up
little document. Now I understand November in we read
the two resolutions 1970 1973 and the 1970 Relief resolution.
It says, you know, we should have the International Human
Rights Council do an investigation. And when they
report back, then we'll decide you know, how bad the slaughter
of the civilians is. And the Human Rights guy said, okay,
yeah, that's a good idea. You know, we'll have it done in a
couple of weeks, which in Obama's beat means years, you
will have it done in a couple of a couple of weeks. And so they
didn't wait for that report. Because that was like, why the
longer they wait, John, eight days? Hey, wait, no report.
Okay, let's go in and bomb them. In January of this year of our
Lord 2011. The council was just about to vote on a report that
affirmed and praised Libya and Colonel Gaddafi for his human
rights record. The report states the Gadhafi government protected
not only political rights, but also economic, educational,
social, social and cultural rights and praise it for the
nation's treatment of religious minorities and human rights
training received by the security forces.
This is a must be a mistake in 2011
report linked in the show notes no gender showed icon right from
the UN website. how inconvenient
Well, somebody screwed up.
They should have disappeared that report. Unbelievable. Lies
All right, a little interlude John, I'd like to put some bling
in your flame can I do that?
You might as well. When I
know that I smell good. Tastes good. And look good. I feel
fantastic. And to jazz was three step system always makes me feel
that way. Step one. To Jazel scented body powder made from
the finest all natural ingredients. It's perfect for
women and also for men. Brush it on your most intimate areas
every day. So you always stay dry and smell fresh when it gets
hot. To to Jazel flavor so I can be deliciously intimate. Oh my.
What did you get? This
is a commercial for two jazil we were gonna do pay off here.
Delicious. So what step three? Step three. Be patient.
Oh Jazel is just so much fun.
To jazz was a three step personal confidence system. And
step three is where you put some bling in your flame.
There you go. So what's it for jazz have a Jazlyn kit with
fragrance and sweetness tasting. And this is being sold on
this rhinestone stuck in my tooth.
I feel dirty after washing that. This is the problem. And so when
I when I talk about, you know, the Federal Reserve with you,
and I see this on television, and like there's no hope.
There's no hope whatsoever
already discussed this. There never was any. No hope. The only
reason we did to be the reason that people listen to this show
is because they're also in the same boat saying, Boy, boy,
yeah, what are we gonna do? Well, Alicia, no, I mean, it's
kind of amusing. He's doing it in a room full of clones who
don't seem to get it. That is all a bunch of bullcrap. But you
know, whatever.
So there was another presidential action that puzzled
me in and for some reason, I never see this reported,
although it's like, the web, the White House has RSS feeds that
shows up and have it shows up twice in my aggregator because I
subscribe to the presidential Actions page. And then also the
White House Press Office. If you were reporting on the White
House, if that was your beat, John, wouldn't you like look at
what they release?
I would be probably glued to that.
So they, the they released a memorandum about section 315 of
title 32 of the United States Code. And you know, I love it
when I read something like that, like,
oh, is your favorites is my favorite stuff like 10 for that
Google? What is
this? So this was something that dictator Bush put into place by
presidential order. Allowing This is really quite crazy. Army
and Air Force personnel to be deployed anywhere as National
Guardsmen.
Oh, that's interesting. I like that.
No, I don't like it that much because of me. I
like the fact he discovered it because what it says is that
because we have all these, you know, things you can't do in
this country with our military posse common Tatas. But you can
do certain things with the National Guard, you can't do.
You can't you can't do it the military. So you just say hey,
it's just a matter of definition. You you, you marine
guy, you're now National Guard, right?
And it's without disregard for his rank or for his pay scale.
Now, this was already permissible. I didn't know this.
But I think before George W. Obama came out with this
memorandum, dictator Bush hair Bush came out with this idea,
but now, Georgia, the Obama has trans has changed this section
315 Title 32 so that it no longer is by presidential order,
but at the discretion of the Secretary of Defense. This is
concerning. So now this
should this I know what you This is obvious. This is one typical
Obama. He this way, he doesn't have to take the heat.
But obviously he so he doesn't have to say yep, it's okay. Go
ahead. I called our troops down to the streets because there
were freedom. I mean, rebels. I mean, anarchist. So he doesn't
want to have to say that. So just like, Hey, Bob, Bill Gates,
whatever your name is, by the way, it's going to be a new guy
any day now. So who's the new guy that's going to have this
awesome power?
I think they should move into Paula Tano to that job.
Yes, that would be a new guy for sure. Sorry, I couldn't resist.
Yeah, you You're terrible.
But that disturbed me somewhat. Yeah,
it's disturbing is it then of course Where's is anybody
bitching and moaning about this? Does anybody even know about it?
There's anybody complained about it but the two of us
Let me check. No, no.
It takes somebody from the mainstream media or even the
less than mainstream media you think thumb Hartmann even mom?
Yeah, he should be all over it. Yeah, he should.
But he's too bug eyed. Trying to read what they tell him to read.
Now. He's, you know, the his his overlords at Russia today
telling you what to do.
Is overlords. I don't know he's probably freaking out saying
where's all the hot chicks at this news channel. I got the
wrong news channels. Go to a news channel this is bad thing
here. Just a bunch of
push guys. I wouldn't even work at like a CNN or Fox just for
this for no money. Just let me hang out with the chicks.
Oops. I hope she did. Here she comes around and now She Bangs
right the back of the head. So actually, CNBC has got some
interesting women too. So okay, let's get back to the show. All
right. So
I think this is the most emailed a story and clip of the week,
John, I don't see it on your list, you probably were sure I
was gonna get a hold of it. The Shut up slave moment of the
week, courtesy of CNN.
If you get upset at airport security, you might want to
watch how you show it. Because behavior detection officers
deployed at the nation's airports to ferret out security,
which is BDO by
the way, just saying I want to be one of those guys, I think
I'm going to quit this job and become a behavioral detective
officer.
Well, you could get promoted immediately by you got a big
one. You can you can catch me. And you ain't gonna be like,
hey, that's curry. I know when I see I've
been watching him for four years, four years I've been
watching that guy.
on the lookout for among other cons. If you want to search my
cavity, all you have to do is ask honey, it's not a problem.
Anyone who displays arrogance and verbally expresses contempt
for the screening process, according to information
obtained by CNN civil liberties
obtained by CNN, it's like
I This is Lucy, and I need a piece on our BTOS because you
know, I don't want to give them a raise. They need some profile.
Sure. What do you want us to say? Just Say No watching
everybody.
Okay, group say it is absurd that the exercise of free speech
should be considered suspicious.
If you complain about the government. That's justification
for the government doing more intensive scrutiny of your
behavior, it seems, you know, just so anti American
terrorism experts also questioned whether it's used,
they say terrorists usually try to blend in and keep a low
profile because they don't want to draw attention to their
activities. Challenging airport security would have precisely
the opposite effect.
This idea that a terrorist would be very arrogant press contempt
for airport procedures. That doesn't make any sense to me
from a common sensical point of view, and also from the record
of what is known about behaviors of al Qaeda terrorists,
but the immigration agent who stopped the so called 20th 911,
hijacker from entering the US did use arrogant to describe
Mohammed Al Qahtani,
upon establishing eye contact, body language that appear
arrogant.
How do they like this guy into the country is my question.
He appeared he appeared arrogant. You only had to appear
arrogant.
That's right. That's all it takes. But yeah, go ahead. I
was thinking you when you go through, I was going through
these things with a blank stare it was Gavin
blank zombie looked like a zombie.
Yeah, he goes to look like a zombie. You know, when somebody
tells you to do some stupid, give them a zombie look. And you
go, and then you do it. And then you know, the very end by the
way, I always do this. The very end you get all this stuff,
because you had all these bins. And so you got a bunch of bins
counter. So you just take your sweet time about putting your
jacket on finding your shoes, putting your you know, do
everything. So you know that otherwise you'll lose something.
Yeah. And just you know, so what?
Well, you mean at the end after it's all gone through? Yeah. Oh,
yeah, I do that too. Because then I'm through and I figure,
okay, you know, the thing that I hate the most would really,
really, really annoys me. If you put your laptop and I have a
power book. And it must have something to do with the power
book and the plastic bins. I always get static electric shock
when I when I pick up my laptop. Oh, really, I've never gotten
that. Well, you don't have a Mac, you got like plastic stuff.
magnesium, magnesium device.
Don't ever have this because it really it's always. And it's
like, I'm not a small it's like patch like one of those really
like the spark,
you're gonna ruin that laptop, when you're gonna get started
going through those things.
Let's get I think it's the bin, the bin has something to do with
it. The plastic bin is your
airport has happened everywhere. I've never had that happen. It
happens so
often that I've now you know how it was one of those static days
where like, you're very conscious of it and you like you
want to go open the door you go like, you hit it really hard or
like really fast because you don't want to get that that
start as it started more than shock. I now do that every
single time with my laptop because I know that I have a 90%
chance I'm going to get a static charge from it. I'm just saying.
Anyway, this of course is not about this is not anything other
than promotion for the new show. You see something say something
is brought to you by Lucien to Palo Alto and the Department of
Homeland Security, enjoy the show. And maybe it's gonna be
it's gonna be great. It's gonna be a great show.
So I've been digging here on this machine trying to find a
reference to Um this guy wrote this book as I was watching C
span and book TV on the weekend of course it's quite
entertaining because all these book authors who seem to do more
work than reporters do and so you get a lot of good
information but I didn't realize this one I don't have the
author's name or his book sorry Oh, but he's a progressive just
to show that I have some balance here with my clips I you know,
we take from the right wing the left wing the middle of the you
know, in the Libertarians as long as
they're a douchebag we'll clip them
and but this guy has an agenda How many of you this was just an
interesting question somebody asked him about T bill ownership
and I didn't realize these numbers these percentages and
what is the T bill John you have to Treasury bill this is what
finances that our government so this is what China thinks that
the China owns a Japanese buy we buy you have one and somewhere
and yeah,
yeah, I'm buying T bills.
And here's this just play the who owns the T bills because I
don't think the public generally knows this guy. He's got a book
on I don't have the time maybe the chatroom can dig it up. It's
about it's like the 13th the economic facts you don't know or
some some title like that although I couldn't find it on
Amazon. So so it's obviously titled something else but it
stands alone nicely.
What about the right wing Chicken Little narrative
involving
who is that a racial slur?
Yeah, this is when you get a group of progressives in a room
they're the mean I mean, you don't see this from the right
wingers so much, but you sure Sear from the progressive the
progressive branch of the of the Democrat Party, the ultra
liberals, they are mean spirited. They think all the Tea
Party people are just racist pigs.
And what is it what is it? We have people as you can see from
our producers from all over Gitmo nation, we explain Chicken
Little reference.
Oh, that's a good point. Chicken Little is a is a is a child's
nursery rhyme or a story fable about a little chicken that
keeps running around saying that the sky is falling because it
you know, drop a hailstone hit him or something. And he's just
worried sick about everything and he's just becomes a fretting
lunatic in a short form and that's called a Chicken Little
What about
the right wing Chicken Little narrative involving who owns our
T bills. And I'm China of course being a big investor in this
kind of abstraction called treasury bills and and this
nervousness that has been associated that if we do
something that upsets this country or that country we will
completely go to hell in a handbasket because suddenly the
debt how
many more of these does she pull out Chicken Little hell on a
handbasket? Has she done by and large yet? This moment is
horrible.
I think this woman is scripted I think this whole this question
and answer thing I cut a bunch of this out by the really oh my
god is the guy actually says Oh, I love this audience because
they're asking the exact same questions I like to answer,
which is da so anyway, so while she wraps it up here and he
starts to answer it's kind of interesting to me the numbers he
pulls out this will
be called in
I don't know why it is that this that this idea that China owns
so much of our debt has become so prevalent, but the reality is
they're holding 9.6% of our public debt 9.6
I actually knew this John, I knew that it's it it's a me it's
just a whole bad guy thing.
American households and institutions own 42% more than
four times the amount it's an odd kind of thing I think part
of it is
screw the China man I don't
know why this is so prevalent I'm not sure that that's it's an
ideological thing. It seems to be that I meet everybody
everybody I meet whatever their political persuasion also seems
to think China holds this huge sword over our head and we we
need to do we need to let you know. I don't know Walmart go
there and do what we can't can't make China angry because Oh, no.
But more than four times the amount is held.
I like him.
I like him to like the Oh, no.
I like him. He's like, Yeah, with a little work. He could do
the show, you know, a little he needs to get on with a more I
think he's also bi curious like man that's kind of by
us. individuals and institutions have very big chunk of it is
held in the Social Security Trust Fund. Now, this is one of
the more pernicious lies that I think in my book, the Social
Security Trust Fund is a huge pile of treasury bills. Huge
trout pile of treasury Mills, according to the law of the
United States of America, the Social Security Administration's
finances cannot be used to either influence the the surplus
or deficit of the US Federal government's budget.
Wait a minute. What? Let me just hear that again. What did he
say? Exactly? According to the law,
the social claims, he says that the Social Security
Administration has these T bills, right, about $4 trillion
worth. And it's accumulating interest. I mean, some of the
interest payments are going to that, which is one of the
reasons I think there's something fishy going on, if
anything, if what he says is accurate, and I believe it to
be. But he says that this, most of this information we're
getting is bogus, that, Oh, you know, this, there's no money
there broke, you know, and it's all been folded into the budget.
And that's just the way it is. And it is all bullcrap,
according to him. And as he plays this out, but it's
actually interesting when he actually does the math on it.
And it looks like Social Security is gonna be around
forever, which I've heard from other people. And so it's like,
you know, I don't know why they're Why would we're hearing
us kind of a, a fake scenario about to Social Security, I
think a lot of it was they figured, well, look, they have,
would they have $4 trillion. If we can just change the law,
privatize Social Security, that'll throw 4 trillion into
our bank account, because we get to take that money. Now we get
to steal the money from Social Security, which will tell
everyone is broke. And that'll balance the budget. We can spend
more money on hookers and blow. And meanwhile, the public can
screw themselves because they don't know how to manage money
anyway, but let them
jam. My head just exploded from what you said. It's like, Oh,
wow. All right. Well, I was just listening to this I
flabbergasted
shins finances cannot be used to either influence the the surplus
or deficit of the US Federal government's budget, by law,
they are distinct by law. So you have this huge pile of cash 2.6
trillion, it's earning so much interest that even after we
start drawing it down, you hear so much about this date, oh,
we're gonna start drawing it down. Even after we draw it
down, start drawing it down. The interest payments are such that
it will increase continue to increase in size until it hits
$4.2 trillion with a tee. And I hear people who are so brazen as
to assault, this incredibly secure and popular retirement
program by saying these are worthless I owe us which is just
stunning. Because I want you to just think about this. Those
worthless IOUs are 2.6 trillion in T bills out of 14 trillion in
total. So that means that if they're worthless, so are the
9.6% held by China, and so are the 42% held in your 401 K's in
pension funds, et cetera, et cetera. They're not worthless
IOUs what they are is they're the safest investment on planet
Earth.
Okay, all right, let me get this straight. So first of all, his
last name is gotta be Geitner or something like that. is obvious.
The guy is a shill for the Fed. And he's Wow, this is
unbelievable. It's the most secure investment on earth. No,
my gold how how little of it I have left is the securest
investment on Earth. This guy is douchebag Hold on. No, I
understand what his point is. You can't say it's worthless
IOUs without saying the debt to China is a worthless IOU or the
or the T bills that the worthless it's all a worthless
IOU that's what I'm gonna say. It's all worthless. A bunch of
paper. It's a bunch of hooey circling around is like a turd
in a toilet. It's all worthless. That's what I'll say. Sure. That
guy is just not saying he's no, it's the most secure on Earth,
please.
Well, for paper it is.
Yeah, it's only a little thicker than the paper I wipe my behind
with.
Yeah, well give me a billion dollars worth of this worthless
stuff that only you're
you're older than I am. And you still care that much about
money?
I don't I really don't. Yeah, okay. No, no,
I took a vow of poverty when we started this show. And so far,
so good.
Yeah. And we don't get to donate when our producers don't help us
out and you're depressed for a week.
So why is that I wasn't depressed because of that.
So Let's go on let's go back to this guy. The fact of the matter
is we're being led down the primrose path of bull crap when
it comes to the social security situation,
right? Well, yeah, absolutely. So what can I say? Nothing. I
just thought that people could use the information I don't know
what to
say. That was that was good because it was like what really
unbelievable said we haven't done this in a while Jones so
some important things going on and now back to real is just
when you thought that losing Apollo Tonto with her brand new
reality that was everything. Oh, no. Oh no. Condoleezza Rice will
make her acting debut on 30 Rock. Huh? And even better, she
will be Alec Baldwin's love interest. Those guys in NBC,
they gonna do Ali she gonna do Alec Baldwin when Alec Baldwin's
obviously having this baby with his other blonde hottie.
Well, I don't know if she's playing herself. Or,
or she's acting, she'll be playing yourself
playing herself and he's gonna get all hot and bothered for
these guys will stop at nothing. NBC
so as you do so you promote a show. On which the irony of
course is that ball is a left wing lunatic and she's like, you
know from the right.
Tina Fey the show Star and Creator made the announcement
yesterday on NPR is Leonard Lopate show and the hotbed of
promotional activity that they're really I never heard.
Good job, Tina, and Paris Hilton, and a star in her own
new reality series, where she's going to show a different side
of Paris. The real Paris Hilton now apparently we're going to
say I loves me some jokes. And that's the real news that I
have. I do have some vaccine news. This is it's getting it's
been getting really crazy. I just want to reiterate for
people who are new to the show that vaccines are the health
care Bonanza, everything's running out of patent. Every
medicine, even Viagra, well, especially Viagra, Lipitor, all
this stuff that has been protected for years. And after
our donation segment, I want to come back to the protecting
protectionism of patents and copyrights because of something
going on with that as well. But vaccines are great because they
don't have to go through rigorous testing like everything
else is this this is the Bonanza all the companies have predicted
this to be their future income, you're actually giving it to
people who aren't sick, which is even better. So someone doesn't
need any other any other just a shot I have whatever it is, and
the companies can't get sued. This is the greatest thing about
it is deals were made between governments who by the way,
purchase many of these vaccines that sit idly until they go to
waste and pass their due date. And it's just in Georgia
usually then they usually dump them on some African country so
they don't comply.
There's always an extra Benny at the end here. So now the United
States has jumped into a plan a global vaccine sharing deal. And
this is a kind of like a timeshare. So now it's got this
so brazen. Virus samples will be shared globally in exchange for
vaccines produced from them under a landmark deal to improve
to improve preparedness for a flu pandemic, according to
diplomats at the World Health Organization. So if I understand
and they have a framework agreement now. The end is the
industry has pledged to quote donate drugs and know how
covering half of the $58 million annual cost of boosting defenses
in the poorest nations. Though essentially we will continue to
give you guys the really big contracts if you give some of
that surplus crap to poor people. And now it's official.
It's an official deal.
Well, that's fascinating.
You need to know this stuff. Glaxo SmithKline. One of the
makers of pandemics Yeah, Pan Pandemrix. I'm sorry keep
mispronouncing pandemics. This is the vaccine that has been
linked to kids contracting narcolepsy. In Finland, Finland
really broke the story now it's turning up everywhere Of course
now reading that a mainstream past press because well look at
the commercials Is the drug companies who are sponsoring all
of your media. So that's why it's not really showing up. And
so this is obviously a big problem. You know, oh my gosh,
it seems like the swine flu vaccine Pandemrix has been
causing at least lots of kids. Not everybody, but lots of kids
247 cases in 47 countries, narcolepsy. So what has the
government agreed with GlaxoSmithKline?
Probably not to sue GlaxoSmithKline for anything
now, they already can't do that. You they can't leave sooner what
they agreed to give more drugs. We went everybody falling
asleep. No, they've
recommended changes to the product label. May cause
narcolepsy is what they're gonna put on the label.
Okay, you know, I don't know about you, but I don't know
anybody. When's the last time you had a vaccine where somebody
handed you the bottle said, Would you like to read the
label? Right? No, of course, the last time you ever read a label
of a vaccine bottle? No, I
don't. I don't take vaccines. Well, I
mean, if you did, he or she does anyone get a vaccine? Have you
ever noticed how the process works? Do you ever look at the
button? No, of
course not. Yep. Take
it off the shelf at a drugstore. Bring it to the doctor say this
is the one I want.
I think this is more just about a legal thing. Like just put it
on the label. Okay. He had done could cause narcolepsy.
It should make you sign a waiver. That's what they should
do.
That's probably I think that happens. I'm sure you have to
sign a sign a waiver when you if you get a vaccination these
days. No. Oh, yeah. Oh, yes. I'm sure you do, too. Yeah, I'm sure
you have to sign something that in the fine print says, Dude,
have you ever been to the doctor recently? The minute you sign up
for a doctor, dude, dude, the minute you sign up for the
doctor, you sign everything away. Anyway, doesn't matter
vaccine exemptions likely to be more difficult soon. A new bill.
You know, parents have been trying to get out of these
mandatory vaccines for their kids. And it looks like that's
not going to be possible anymore.
I think it's time to take a break. Okay, let's do that.
Then.
I'm going to show my school by donating to no agenda. Imagine
all the people who could do that. Oh, yeah, that'd be fun.
A warning donating to no agenda may cause narcolepsy.
Hopefully it doesn't. We do have a few people to thank for this
week's episode, James Murray in Houston, Texas. $155.55. Always
a great show. We'd like a birthday call it we got that
list. And Cole has used no agenda topics for a couple of
school essays. And the teachers are not happy.
Really? Yeah, they should be delighted,
I would think but the teachers Well, actually, I have a clip.
Module interruptive. Take use and play this play the school
stories. It's a book. The old lady of Phyllis Schlafly, who is
actually I find more interesting than ever, with a partner of
hers wrote a book called The flip side of feminism and you
can play the school stories thing, I think this may be part
of the problem,
that set up was worthless, what the hell, I don't care about who
the author was sleeping with,
in order for men to be a certain way. And now with feminism. We
are not promoting that anymore. So now men are not growing up.
It's really very simple. But it didn't come out in the article.
Well, I would add to that the domination that women have
feminists have in the educational system. And it
starts in the elementary grades, which are mostly run by women,
and now largely feminists because of the power of the
teachers union. And your typical, not all but your
typical elementary school teacher looks upon unruly boys
as as just unruly girls, and they need to be made to behave
like girls. And they need to sit still, and do the little work
with a pen and pencil that girls can do very easily. And
unfortunately, a lot of new schools are being built without
playgrounds, and recess is being canceled in a lot of schools.
Now, this is a direct attack on the boys who gotta go out and
run around and beat each other up so they can come in and learn
something. The feminists won't tolerate that because that is
insane idea that boys and girls are the same. And I've already
mentioned the whole problem sports are trying to take sports
away. So the colleges are now 6040 female male. Well, nobody
likes this. The girls don't like it, but they've done it. The
feminists have done it.
Wow. Yeah, just don't send your kid to school at all. It's like
a concentration camp. I'm hola and this is
just take
your manslayer that's what I need some meds
so Cole actually that's there's a point to that meds thing the
kids are running around with this given Ritalin yeah give
them
some meds you know don't give them recess give them some meds.
I like this one we'd like boys need to go run around and beat
each other up Yeah, that's right.
So what we do so called needs some karma. Yeah, he
needs a lot of it apparently.
You've got karma. You're really bad for cold? Yeah, he's well,
but you keep trying and actually what you should do is just write
the right satires. In other words, take the opposite side of
what he knows to be right and write it up as though that's
right and see how far he gets Jeff Juniper white.
That's your entire philosophy. That's you don't tell the kid to
do what you do.
Yes, juniper, Whitehorse, Yukon Canada that's out there. I sold
some silver cents it's crazy high. shares the love Thank you

So we have COLE MURRAY turning 15 on the 19th That would be the
day after tax day. So that's Tuesday. That's courtesy of
James Murray. And Heather Aronson celebrates her birthday
and of course we never care to know how old our female
listeners are. As long as they're listening that's the
most important thing. Her birthday was yesterday on the
16th Happy birthday from all of the producers here the no agenda
show
excellent
so it was another thing that it was a couple of things actually
that I remember the New Zealand three strikes or outlaw they got
rammed through on these poor determination Kiwi people who,
you know, just getting over this earthquake.
Yeah, it was pretty sneaky. Yeah, I
can't remember that far back like the whole show again. I
really I can only remember what happened yesterday afternoon.
So another clip shows up from from this. This so called debate
they had and this is yeah, this is Claire Curran. And she is a
lawmaker there and I'm not quite sure how everything works in
Parliament. They're they're rowdy though I like it the kind
of like the bridge, they go next to one stock and like some guy
yeah, maybe he just doesn't know where he is.
At is do the same thing. They get really nasty. Well, it's all
you know, it's all owned by the Queen. So that's why, and you
saw they like to yell. Yeah.
I think it just like old guy who's waking up going, Oh, where
am I? And she came out with some really interesting information
that pertains the United States that I did not know. And what
turns out we're not supposed to know
our fairness to speaker to the Trans Pacific Partnership
Agreement. Now have
you heard of this, John, the Trans Pacific Partnership
Agreement? No, no good.
A Free Trade Agreement. Of sorts currently under negotiation, but
in between New Zealand and eight other countries including the
US. It's an attack on our sovereignty. And what it
currently contains in relation to intellectual property issues
is truly frightening. Leaked texts of the IP chapter reveal
that if it was accepted in its present form, and if New Zealand
signed up in the legislation would be chicken feet in
comparison and this is the next battleground for intellectual
property in New Zealand and we all need to unite around it.
Auckland based IP lawyer Rick Shearer has written about this
recently. He said, quote, the return of section 92 a guilt on
accusation repeat infringer termination of internet accounts
three strikes, the US wants us to effectively scrapped the last
three years of consultation around the replacement of
section 92 A and the reasonably balanced but still not perfect
approach we are working towards in the copyright infringing file
sharing Amendment Bill. Imagine you're an ISP who has had to
bear the cost of gearing up for that regime
I know she goes kind of off the rails you like ISP who gives a
crap. So I go look at this Trans Pacific Partnership deal which
indeed is marked calm confidential. And it may it
actually says this may be emailed but it may not be sent
to press etc. So of course that means you know the kind of
secret The whole thing John is hold
on so you mean it actually says it can't be sent to the press?
Yeah, let
me uh you want me to bring it up presses and all over this? Are
you kidding me with with losing the peloton Oh show coming out
we have other important things to attend to sir. I hope you
realize that. Hey, I can I can bring it up for you if you want.
Looking at it, it's this document contains TPP
confidential information modified handling authorized.
For years from entry, this document must be protected from
unauthorized disclosures, but may be mailed or transmitted
over unclassified email or fax discussed over unsecured phone
lines and stored on unclassified computer systems. It must be
stored in a locked or secured building room or container. Why?
Because if you actually knew I was in this, you would freak
out. This is all about evergreening. This is the main
thing here. And this is why they got to do this quite this is a
was obtained February 10 2011. This is so when you talk about
copyright, everyone's like its copyright and patents, or as
they would say in the Queen's English patents. And, but it's
kind of everyone's Red Herring is the copyright. So let's make
a lot of noise about copyright file sharing ISPs, blah, blah,
blah. But what it truly is about is evergreening copyrights. So
if a publisher owns the copyright to your book for a
certain amount of time, regardless of whatever the hell
you think you've got Mr. DeVore, AK is going to be evergreen
forever. So intellectual, nothing will ever go into the
public domain, there'll be owned by Hollywood Forever. That's
just to get the media on board for the true purpose, which is
evergreening of patents of medicines, genetically modified
organisms, they will own stuff for ever.
Where's the language in there that that says any of this?
Okay, I didn't highlight it for the purposes of this show. I
figured you just take my word for it.
I wrong.
I'm not wrong, though. Seriously.
And this is Oh, taking my lead. No,
no, no, I know. I know. I know. You don't believe me?
I don't believe you. I just think you may have been you may
have been doing overboard with your interpretation.
I don't think so. I don't think so.
Because it's a it's a violation of the Constitution. That's
probably why they want to keep it a secret. Right constitution
clearly outlines what what can and can't be done regarding
copyrights and patents.
This has already been changed before, we've already extended
the copy the copyrights and patents. In fact, the holders of
the Viagra patent got a 293 extension on that a 1994. These
things happen all the time. So you know, constitution, small
constitution, bomb Libya, bomb Syria, but now also now that
it's about your copyright over about your books. Now. You're
like, oh, this is no good. This is unconstitutional.
What do you mean, I've always, always said we seem
constitutionally sound
people to death in the desert, and you'd like to advocate of
this, let's kill them all. Great. Patent shall be available
for any new forms uses or methods of using a known product
and a new form. I'm trying to find that I mean, and now now
you're looking at
it. Now you're now seeing this goes into theme book is
something you have to follow closely, especially since
they're trying to cover it up those go ahead,
say Say, say, say it. Okay, so here it is. Overall, this is now
this I'm paraphrasing. So I'm gonna have to look into it. And
hopefully other people will do some of the work because this is
interesting. And of course, we only have parts of the document.
The proposal for the TC
WikiLeaks when we need them a please.
It's not important to them. And isn't this not? Overall, the
intellectual property chapter of this TPP agreement would include
a number of features that would lock in as global norm. Many
controversial features of US law, such as endless copyright
terms, create new global norms that are contrary to US legal
traditions, such as those proposed to damages for
infringement. This is a big one, by the way. It's like hey, go to
go away forever. The enforcement of patents against surgeons and
other medical professional professional rules. Oh,
you know what, that's all about Tomi. They have a lot of you
know, you have process patents now. And so there's a certain
you there may be a procedure that some surgery may develop
and right, right and you can't use that procedure without
paying the guy.
I'm dying. I'm sorry, this procedure is copyrighted.
Literally This is great. Isn't it? Great. Hey, we should get
into the porn patenting business. Now see that? See that
stuff? I just did that's patented. You can't do that
legally will combust your door down?
Well, you know, that's fine. That's where did this work?
That's where this all leads, it all leads to crazy things
happening.
But you're actually right. I think I think you've got a point
there rules concerning patents on biologic medicines.
disclosure of information from ISPs is crazy, undermine many
proposed reforms of the patent and copyright system such as,
for example, proposed legislation to increase access
to orphan copyright works by limiting damages for
infringement. This is interesting, or statutory
exclusions of non industrial patents such as those issued for
business methods. Wow, you're right. You're right. It's a
total takeover of everything. And but but the red herring is
Get everyone like bitching and moaning about you know, getting
thrown in jail for copyrights sharing, file sharing. That's
the red herrings bad. I'm gonna turn my black I'm turning my
icon black. Meanwhile, when you're when your lungs turn
black, and you can't get the procedure because you can't buy
the pay that for the patent the copyrighted move.
double stitch
someone feeding you lines, that was good. The double stitch? Oh,
I'm gonna go to jail for using that I use their patented groovy
sound.
So anyway, at some point, yeah, this whole show is going to
be a violation. Well, it's interesting. You bring that up,
because YouTube will enjoy by they can Yeah, please do because
we are soon to come, ladies and gentlemen. And John, you
actually, I think you said it on twit. And that's just DeVore ag
being wacky. That's not my Leo impersonation, by the way. That
is just just me. You have said, you know, where this is all
leading to is that you will have to have a license to do this
show. Just like we all have to have a license. And it's obvious
what we're so close to it, because now YouTube has
Copyright School. Have you heard of this? Live? Want to watch it
though? Okay, well, you'll listen to the audio, and then
you can watch it. So if you've been busted for copyright
infringement. What you have to do on your first strike is you
have to go and watch this cartoon, which by the way, is a
blatant Rocky and Bullwinkle rip off in itself, which is just
unbelievable that no one is calling BS on YouTube for this
on Google for doing this is totally Rocky and Bullwinkle.
Just you know,
they've ripped off those intellectual property
characters. They got the squirrel and they got the moose,
except they're called some melts now. So squirrel, squirrel, and
I said squirrel, you're right, I didn't comply. So I'm going to
play you three little clips from this, you have to watch the
whole thing. So first of all, it's the setup, because you're
too stupid to understand copyright, we've got to ram it
down. You're sad, sad slave throat. So
you didn't create that video, you just copied someone else's
content. Uploading someone else's content without
permission could get you into a lot of trouble. It's maybe
copyright infringement.
By the way, the squirrel is getting hit on the head with a
hammer. When he gets in trouble you get hit on the head with a
hammer. Apparently,
copyright is a form of protection for original works of
authorship, including literary, dramatic, musical, graphic and
audio visual creations. Copyright Infringement occurs
when a copyrighted work is reproduced, distributed
performed are publicly displayed without the permission of the
copyright holder or the legal right to do so. Even though
YouTube is a free site, you can get in serious trouble for
copyright infringement. You can be sued and found liable for
monetary damages, you can lose your duty. Worse, you could lose
your YouTube account. You only get a few chances. If YouTube
receives a valid notification of alleged copyright infringement
from a copyright holder for one of your videos. The video will
be removed in accordance with Allah you'll be notified via
email and in your account and you'll get us to write if
YouTube finds you're a repeat offender you will get banned for
life here's an idea why not make your own video
right so so this is the
they think we're idiots Yes. Who wrote who did who produced this
piece of garbage?
I don't know I didn't I don't know if they'd had credit thing
that I'd credits maybe
I can see why. So then,
of course we have this little something called fair use. So do
you think that they how would they explain fair use if we fair
use a prop We have a whole video about that because that's that's
actually very complicated but at the same time simple.
Okay, so the way they do this is the fair use, which is read
almost like a disclaimer, old school really fast and
unintelligible really small letters roll across the screen.
And you see the fair use sign is squeezing the squirrel because
honestly, you don't want to deal with this fair use is
complicated. You need a lawyer. No, don't don't think about fair
use Fair Use No, no, that's bad. You don't want to use fair use.
YouTube provides tools for rights holders to control the
use of their content.
I'm sorry, that's the wrong one. Here's the fair use club.
Did you get permission for it? mashups, or remixes the content
may also require permission from the original copyright owner,
depending on whether or not the use is a fair use. In the United
States copyright law allows for the fair use of copyrighted
material under certain limited circumstances without
permission. from nature, the Fair Use the nature of the
copyrighted work, the amount and substantiality of the work used
in relation to the work as a whole and the effect of the use
upon the potential market for the copyrighted work. Other
jurisdictions may have similar copyright provisions protecting
fair use or fair dealing. If you're uncertain as to whether a
specific use qualifies as a fair use, you should consult a
qualified copyright attorney. How horrible is that?
What Wait a minute, you did that?
No, that is the way the video is.
They sped it up. Yeah. Yeah, so one of the most important
protection aspects of free speech. Yes,
it's fair use and they and so they just trivialize it,
marginalize it with this bullcrap at the end like that
they should be ashamed of themselves. These people who are
they who's the head of this operation, Sergey Brin. Now he's
gonna need to down Excuse
me, excuse me, the way this the President of the United States
responsible is responsible for a lot of stuff. Screw Sergey Brin,
Sergey, you're evil. He should call a stop to this. He of all
people should call a stop to this who use fair use of
software all the time. This it I got very angry when I saw this.
It not only trivialize it. I mean, yeah, it trivializes the
whole idea of fair use, and completely squishes it and you
can hear the squirrel getting blown up by the Fair Use clause,
like getting squished. Because how the lawyer
need to consult a lawyer with Fair Use would
literally what they said consult a lawyer. You couldn't hear it
because it was sped up.
I heard that part. I heard him say consult a lawyer. Every time
he had to deal with fair use, which is most use, you know,
quoting is what bloggers do when they take a clip from some
buddies article and they dropped the clip the two sentences at
the beginning of an article in the headline, or a fair use, no
one's been sued over it. And you don't need to call a lawyer
every time you do it. It's ridiculous.
So of course, and this is the final bit. If you think that you
have been your account has been closed or your video taken down
unjustly, YouTube has tools tools available. But John, don't
you dare misuse those tools.
YouTube provides tools for rights holders to control the
use of their content. If someone takes down your video by
mistake, or as a result of a mis identification of the material
to be removed, there's a counter notification process for you can
send YouTube and notice that there was an error. But be
careful. If you misuse the process, you could end up in
court and then you would get in a lot of trouble. That's how the
law works. That's how the law works.
Well, I gave you you in that you win today's show.
How sad is that though? Really?
That's pathetic.
It's really really it's really hurts.
You can go into a funk again. donations.
No, I'm not going to know funk. Not over that. I could go into a
funk over the Belgian cleric Bishop row here. Pantelleria
wow, I didn't even I can't pronounce this try. It's pretty
bad. Let me try that again. From Hillier
as Belgian tight,
he went on TV to talk about how he sexually abused two boys. But
it doesn't see himself as a pedophile.
He's what is he that he's
kind of rough around six.
Oh, God. It had nothing to do with sexuality. He said,
Oh, I just like gay just like so the company. He says, Look, he's
asexual. Of course. We
know this was not good. I've confessed many times.
Oh, well, that there you got it. He describes
it. 13 years of sexual abuse to which he had subjected one
nephew from the age of five as more than a little piece of
intimacy, as with any says, as with all families, when the boys
came to visit, the nephew slept with me. That happens. Families.
Oh my god, I think we're puke.
It's terrible. Most these guys are diluted.
It began as a game with the boys. It was never a question. I
bet it was. It was never a question of rape. Oh my God, I
don't have the impression at all Muslim pedophile. He says it was
really just a small relationship. What? I did not
have the feeling that my nephew was against it. Quite the
contrary. God. This is unbelievable. This is just
unbelievable. You know, Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore. They,
you know, they have to save the world. And I don't know if
there's an ulterior motive. I think their hearts really in the
right place. But so they're going out and they were on Piers
Morgan. And they're trying to stop sex slave trafficking.
This has been by the way, I started spotting the sex, trade
sex trade sex slave meme has been floating around. And I'd be
honest about it. Whether there have been tensions are good or
bad. I've seen too much of it out of the blue to not be
suspicious of either a movie coming out. Outside. Yeah,
that's horrible. There's a movie coming out or something else up
because this is just dis as out of the blue. I mean, it's not a
new problem. It didn't start up last week. And now this is all
over the place. I didn't of course it's the old thing. Oh, I
will we want to make people aware of it. Well, so what so
they're aware of it doesn't change anything or change it get
out and get off Piers Morgan and go do something I mean, this
kind of talk talk taco, and now they're aware of it. I've done
my job, doesn't they? You haven't done anything. So again,
I want to like these people. I want to think that their hearts
in the right place, then for some reason, those two in
particular, I think they're just dumb, you know, and so they just
like they really mean well, that just dumb. But I hear them
talking. I don't have any clips or anything. I hear them talking
like, you know, it's so hard to get politicians involved. I'm
like, da, the politician, the most hookers in America are in
Washington, DC, you're not going to get anyone trying to help you
out. I mean, they're story after story of Judge of, you know, not
all police officers. But in the justice system itself. I've said
this many times the Netherlands, the entire Justice System was
one big, horrible mess of pedophilia. It's like you in
fact, you better watch out if you're not on board with some
program, you actually could wind up in the hot tub with the cover
on be very, very careful. And this is a non starter. So
I think there's a movie or something involved here because
this is coming out of the blue is a short lived phenomenon.
Nothing's going to change and there'll be some benefit to you
know that we'll have to start doing some research but will
last
No, probably not. And then as a final thing for me John woodshed
does include a little clip there was an interesting let me just
see if I can find it here. Interesting note and there was a
combat PR company that I have started to investigate and it
really like went like wow, this is this is pretty amazing. Just
see where is it here? This is the why can't I find it now this
is paying me off. It's the knife to search for time.
Well while you're searching for that I can put in a couple of
short clips from some guy named I think is hertz guard Mark
hertz guard is some warmest douchebag that was on Democracy
Now. Pretty much condemning everybody. For you know anyone
who doesn't believe in global warming I thought these guys
have given up on it and they've said they've changed the moniker
but apparently not you can play the warmest a hole or warm is to
play in both be able to science, skeptics and the media. I'm very
sorry to say the mainstream media at least calls them
climate skeptics. They are not skeptics. Genuine skeptics are
invaluable to science. That's how science progresses is with
skepticism. But a true skeptic can be persuaded by evidence.
They cannot. They have made up their minds for economic reasons
or ideological reasons that they're not going to believe in
us. And because our country has allowed them to dominate the
debate for 20 years. We're now stuck with 50 more years of
rising temperatures we're now locked in my daughter the rest
of generation hot are locked in to living under the hottest most
volatile climate our civilization has ever known.
What a
douche is debt generation generation hot
baby. Let's play the second clip.
My daughter and her generation are going to have to live with
this. And I think that's a terrible crime.
All the extreme weather in the past two years as a lot of
debate as to whether we can reasonably link that to climate
change, whether it's the heatwave in New York City,
record heat in 2010, the floods in Pakistan, the the the weather
problems in Europe in 2003, your sense of that the individual
events versus the general trends. There's only two
patient about that in the United States of America. And we get
this all the time our people say, Well, we, you know, there's
all this disagreement, there is not any disagreement, unless
you're watching Fox News and listening to the House
Republican Party. Look at the countries in Europe, for
example. Conservative parties are running Britain, Germany,
France, none of those conservative political parties
have
oh, my gosh.
The sciences in
science squirrel,
what an eighth hole.
That's what I said, Oh, my
God, well, this actually plays right into what I was about to
do. This plays right into it. So the reason why. So of course,
this all of is promoted by huge PR companies. And the way you
get something in the news, John, we've said it time and time
again, is you've got to have some science. Gotta have a
study. So I read about this particular because I read the
Polish administration has hired the PR firm of Burson Marsteller
to help run its EU presidency later this year, one of the big
ones, right, so they're Young and Rubicam, they're a part of
WPP. They're huge. So I'm like, I want to just go over and take
a look at the website for Burson Marsteller. Oh, my gosh. So that
the first thing I say, What do you want to do? You want to look
at case studies? Like what have they done so far? You know, in
case we wanted to hire them to promote our show.
So they've been beyond Easy Street.
So did you know that the Earth Our campaign is one of theirs,
you know, where you turn off the lights? You didn't think that
that just like cropped up somewhere useful? And everyone
went, Well, hey, this is a good idea. Oh, it's like what this
wasn't like a,
a Mary. It's done. My dying.
This wasn't like a Twitter thing. Now, this was a
sophisticated PR effort, and they were hired to. And by the
way, this Earth, our campaign was developed by the WWF, the
world wide. The World Wildlife Foundation, right to raise
awareness of climate change, encourage energy efficiency and
make a significant contribution towards reducing carbon
footprints. Yeah, a significant contribution. So they were
hired, they came to the game late, but I guess they stole a
piece of the business of Earth Hour. They were supposed to help
India join Earth Hour. So how did they do this? This is
fascinating because they, they put it on their website. So in
2010, they worked with the WWF. That's a client in the hope of
expanding the reach of Earth Hour to cities beyond Delhi and
Mumbai, through a cost effective, integrated PR
campaign that targeted a core audience of urban youth and
prominent corporations with the hope of exceeding previous
targets. So how do we do that? Well, we got to get some
celebrities. So Burson Marsteller developed a unique
campaign that kicked off with a press conference featuring
Bollywood superstar I'd be shocked bomb as the brand
advocate for Earth Hour 2010 Is it starting to come clear people
how this works, hire a celebrity. Then they worked in
conjunction with the Hindustan Times Group, ie, like a huge
media conglomerate media, the big media in a pro bono
arrangement, which means I know no money but blow me anyway.
There is I don't know where the pro bono comes from one way or
the other. Pro bluno. It's beside the point gone leveraging
print radio and outdoor advertising to convey important
campaign
got the ads for free. Exactly. Right.
The campaign was supported by HTS radio channel fever 102
radio DJs delivered targeted messages. Yeah, I bet they did
that for free. Then they developed a customized Earth our
2010 website is another 100 grand and created Facebook and
orchid community communities to register participants and
provide further details on the campaign. So the whole thing
this whole Earth Hour, which you thought foolishly was like, Oh,
this is I'm good. Hey, why don't we just I'll do this. Now. I'll
turn off the lights now. Like like It's like turning your
Twitter icon black, but you've been completely manipulated by
the compromised media. So now I start reading a little bit about
how they do their work. And they have two disciplines that are
unique to, to what I call b&m. Burson Marsteller, their unique,
unique, unique capabilities. And one of them, and John, This blew
me away is evidence based communications.
Ooh, this is you learn a lot from these, you
can learn a ton. I have this as their own promotional video, and
they have all their douchebags there. Evidence based
communications, which is code for scientists being paid to
come up with a study that proves your point.
Evidence based communications is a fundamental part of everything
we are doing moving forward at Burson Marsteller. Certainly,
it's part of client service, meaning in our everyday work for
the clients we already have, and showing them that research and
empirical tool empirical tools will make them better and will
make us better as an agency. Evidence based communications is
a way to say to our clients, first and foremost, you're going
to make this investment. And we want to show you what you get
out of it. What could that
investment be in? John, what do you think? Sounds to me like
they're investing in a study of some kind of science. They
employ scientists, and not
just in a software, because often what we do in
communications, is less tangible, it's a little harder
to measure. But what if we could come up with a way to actually
measure it, to show people and show our clients? Here's where
you are now. Or here's what your reputation is now. Or here is
what we believe the best message can be from now for now. And if
you do this, and you make these investments, here's what we
believe you can move to, here's how much better you can be. I
start
from that framework that I found many clients, were willing
really to go through all of the extra steps of not wanting the
answer first, but wanting to have a process of getting to the
answer.
Oh, I love that. Having a process of getting to the
answer. In other words,
can't wait, wait, in other words, more billable hours, but
go ahead,
obviously, more billable hours, but it's kind of defined as
like, you know, okay, we're gonna have all these hours that
we're going to build to you. But then you'll have a study at the
end of piece of paper that is definable, it's empirical. It's
empirical tools
that were supported not just with great creative and
messaging, but with really hard facts that lead to those
conclusions. Because the probability that they're going
to be successful, is so much higher when they go through that
process. And now we've expanded the tools out from just research
to so many other tools.
Look, at the end of the day, the prospect is going to spend their
hard earned money on an agency to help them achieve some
result. And we can either we can either make stuff up and guess
at a solution and walk into the room and pitch a solution that
hasn't been tested or isn't empirical. And we can all sort
of wonder, well, we like those guys. And they seem smart. And
we'll buy that. And we'll someday wonder if we were
successful or not. Or we can come into this process. And say,
we have empirical tools that will allow us to measure how
we're doing allow you to have confidence in us, as an agency,
allow us to have confidence in the recommendations that we're
giving you. And to me, that completely changes the nature of
a new business conversation
within our industry. There's no other firm, I think that can
bring together the capabilities of evidence based and infuse it
into our everyday client relationships. I think clients
today are demanding more from us, they're demanding more
evidence that the money that they spend is going to be
successful and is successful. It's about applying some of the
science. We have available today to help direct both the message
and evaluation of the programs that we do. And I think it makes
our work so much more valuable.
There you go. Evidence based communication. It's, it's how it
works.
Yep. Well, it's just been that way for I don't know.
It's nice to put a name to it.
That's actually great that they these guys keep I mean, this is
how I talk about hubris we talked about this was the theme
of the show, talking about hubris to actually come out and
just and this lay it all out and not, you know, not try to keep
it to themselves or to I mean, essentially, it's been long
since the dip these PR companies have long. I know many of the
people that are involved with this, and they're just debris.
Yeah, yeah. So what we do I mean, we we manipulate the
media, because the media is a bunch of idiots anyway. And the
public will go along with it, the media tells them and we can
tell them what to do. And, and they're very straightforward
about I mean, they're not trying to cover it up. They're not
trying to hide anything. It's just the fact that the public
doesn't seem to, you know, make the leap to figure this out that
this is what's happening to them. And as long as they don't,
this will continue well and they never will by the way,
well there is one more thing and that Is there a discipline known
as E fluent Charles? Because in 1998, Burson Marsteller
identified a group of online opinion makers, which they call
E Fluenz. Shells, which has little are by the way, it's a
registered trademark Oh, who have exponential influence
shaping and driving public opinion through the internet and
throughout the offline world. Compared with the average
internet user, ie flew inches are far more active and their
usage of email news groups, bulletin boards listservs other
online vehicles when conveying their messages, while they're
extremely influential online. influentials also spread their
opinions in the offline world as well. Their families and peers
regularly approached them for information, opinions and advice
on a wide range of subjects now, ie Fluenz shoals over the past
nine years. So you said you know the public will never hear about
it. Think about if you know anyone like this. Over the past
nine years, we have extended our knowledge of influential with
research on segments specific influential audiences, including
tech influentials, Mom flew essentials, and you flew
essentials. Each influential segment is nuanced in terms of
how its members influence their peers, and how they can be most
effectively reached by organizations. In other words,
people who you are listening to on podcast watching in online
video segments are paid for their communication. This is
what the mommy bloggers is all about, who actually get paid to
tweet about vaccines. Who knows who else is being paid to
promote something? Because these guys are talking to here's your
hubris right here. They actually pay people to influence your
technology buying. The mom flew essentials for the stuff that
you buy in the supermarket, and the youth flew angels for god
knows what.
Yeah, no, I know, this is a fact. Okay. Now here's the
interesting part of this. Burson Marsteller Ogilvy all these
guys, Ogilvy has a whole operation very similar to this
called Ogilvy 360 And which is about social media. And the idea
is that they can you know, they want to get these bloggers they
want to get you know who they are their name crops up all the
time. I am not one of them. I have not gotten a check from a
PR agency in my life. I have to
be honest. I have to be completely honest with you right
now. I am a member of the mill flu intial group.
Yeah, okay. Anyway, back to seriousness. So there is there's
the what they don't want to talk about. And I'm going to buy
people should people who listen to the whole show get a kick out
of this because he thought it people would never get to the
end of the show and they probably should. What they don't
want to talk about as this doesn't work. Oh, really? Oh,
oh, way works better. I mean, they still do the old way with
with the DJs and the hot Bollywood stars and the you
know, the George Clooney isn't that that still works. Let me
just read this is a report that has been suppressed came out as
for C and it was it was out of the UK talking about the UK
marketing mix. I don't have this, we have to do our own
report or do some research to prove this in the US too. There
might be a little different. But this was a study done on primary
influences on what the percent of shoppers that were where
people white people would go buy something from anyone buy an
idea, buy a product by any buy anything. And this is the order
of influence from top to bottom. The number one influence what
makes you want to buy anything is the familiarity with the
brand, right? That's 46% number two when it comes on. Sorry,
what? No, I just coughed. Sorry. Oh, number two is search engine
results really? 13% then promotional emails. 10%. By the
way, we have me up.
But he influentials do promotional emails, content, and
search results can also be resolved.
This is just a pure play. Word of mouth, which is another 10%.
TV, newspaper, radio magazine ads, internet ads, interaction
on social networks comes in at 3%. So in
other words, Obama is a shoo in for the next election because of
his brand awareness.
Yeah, probably right.
shopping comparison websites, by the way, came in at 2%, which is
bad news for them, blogs 1%. And product review websites, which
is the sorry, number 1%. is So these things are exaggerated.
They're been they've been hyped. They've been pumped. In fact,
the mechanism itself that these guys produce the PR people,
they've actually promoted this concept to themselves.
They've influenced themselves, they've influenced themselves,
you know, it's just they're just saying as anybody He runs a
corporation, what's the deal with this? Don't waste your
money.
Well, anyway, this once again proves that, that we, we have
the right idea. And the idea is don't try and sell anything
except for a great product and let people figure out if they
want to send you some money for it. And I'm and I quite, quite
simply, I wake up and I'm happy about it. I'm poor, but I'm
happy. And you should be well,
you're broke and I don't have to wear that douchebag suit these
guys are wearing.
Now I do have an end of show clip, which contrasts mightily
with what we've just been talking about. I think it is the
culmination of where TV is headed. It was a clip taken with
Elisha Cuthbert, they pretty blonde actress on the Jimmy
Kimmel show. And I think this summarizes the direction of
which television is headed and I'm not really complaining about
it that much. So we don't have to come back after that clip. We
can just go we're done. That clip ends the show. I remember
everybody
divorce.org/n A so the things we're looking for for our next
program, which will be on Thursday is why did we want to
kick Russia out of the Mediterranean? What do we want
from them? That's the one thing we got to look out for. And the
other one is we're still looking for an RV for the Gitmo nation.
Tour Hot Pockets across America. And your help, of course, is
highly appreciated. In finding that someone's got to have one
of these things that we can borrow for a couple of weeks, I
would hope. And it's always nice talking to you. Twice a week,
John.
Good talking to you too. Sir Adam,
breaker breaker. Coming to you from Gitmo nation West here in
the People's Republic of Southern California. Yay at the
hilltop Watchtower crackpot command center in the morning to
you all I'm Adam curry.
And it's in the morning someplace. Obviously, I'm from
Northern Silicon Valley. That's where I am anyway at the moment
in the buzzkill bunker I'm John C. Dvorak we'll talk
to you again on Thursday right here on no agenda
at random but you know what, you know when you're with someone
for a substantial amount of time it's hard especially with guys
to come up with great gifts. Oh, I never told you this story i i
ordered him a friend of mine said because we have a pool
table and he loves to play pool with with the guys and whatnot.
I don't play ball but he's great at it and so a girl friend of
mine said there's this website that does custom custom balls
you can custom
custom you can put there either like their name and their blog
in the ball. They're clear but they have you know a little bit
of it. So I thought that was like you know what, this is a
clever idea. Yeah, this is something here. This is like a
novel. Yeah, definitely not a one it's a nice no you know,
it's it was just a fun, unique. Yeah, yeah. So I get on the
phone I call it order them. And then they show up finally and I
open the box and you know what the balls know. They were
supposed to say Dion. They said Khloe and Lamar Odom why one guy
involved and the other athletes the other guys ball you swapped
balls with the Kardashians
the company swapped
our ball did you get the Mars balls in Hollywood
can I get my guys balls?
I definitely would have kept the Odom balls
what was the point of all that? devora.org/n A
