	When do I get to do a pet peeve?
	Adam Curry.
	John C. Dvorak.
	It's March 18, 2010.
	Time for your Gitmo Nation Media Assassination, Episode 183.
	This is no agenda.
	Transforming your view of the nation we call Gitmo.
	Deconstructing the media from the Hilltop Watchtower Crackpot Command Center in Gitmo Nation West in the People's Republic of Southern California.
	In the morning, I'm Adam Curry.
	And after that long delay there because of the latency, I'm here in Silicon Valley.
	I'm John C. DeVore.
	It's Crackpot and Buzzkill!
	In the morning!
	In the morning to you, my friend.
	I usually try to step on your line because we have a latency issue with this connection.
	Yeah, what happened?
	So at the end, when you say Adam Curry, I start talking just after the word Adam.
	Why don't you just admit that you're drunk?
	I wish.
	Just admit it.
	The whole chat room knows it.
	Everybody knows it.
	Yeah, right.
	And so, to cut down the latency.
	But I'm going over the no agenda donations list.
	I'm not paying any attention at all.
	Exactly.
	You are distracted.
	Well, a little bit.
	See, I haven't got a formula down.
	Although we do have a formula.
	Yes.
	In fact, everyone needs to adhere to it because it's very, very simple.
	Our formula is this.
	We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
	And we do it with pride, dammit!
	You know, somebody complains...
	Somebody complained about this particular jingle.
	Oh, really?
	Oh, really?
	But, you know, the funny thing is, I don't think people realize that one of the things that we do on the show, and the reason we use all these jingles, besides the fact that we mock the jingle, is that they are used as segues and bumpers and all sorts of different mechanisms so we can move from topic to topic, or, in the case of, like, we just used it there, we can stall because we're doing something.
	So if you don't know what the hell we're doing...
	We're fumbling around.
	Which, by the way, is why they're used in real radio, too.
	Yep.
	That's exactly what they're for.
	And of course...
	So you get organized, you know, you do this, you do that.
	That's why they used to play long cuts so the guy could go to the bathroom.
	I mean, there's a reason for everything.
	Well, yeah, that's true.
	That's true.
	Of course, the old classic, of course, was the DJ's in the room and he puts on a long cut of some album or whatever and goes to the bathroom and locks himself out of the studio and...
	Oh.
	Was that it?
	Hmm.
	New World Order.
	Well, there was one DJ who...
	Hold on a second, John.
	There was one...
	Hold on.
	Whoa, that was really interesting.
	You cut out, and then you came back.
	Let me see if we're still streaming.
	Yeah.
	Wow.
	All right.
	There was a story about the DJ who apparently locked himself into the studio and locked himself in.
	These are like urban legend stories, by the way.
	Played Surfer Bird for eight hours.
	Yeah.
	Everybody knows the DJ that locked himself in the bathroom and played Surfer Bird.
	I actually know the guy.
	Yeah, please.
	It's an urban legend.
	So who's our executive producers today, Adam?
	Well, if I were in charge of that, I would have it all neatly organized, and I could tell you, unfortunately, I'm not in charge.
	That's the only thing you have to do, and even that you've outsourced to your family.
	So, John, who are the executive producers for today?
	I'm waiting for the memo from the family.
	Actually, Spongberg Limited.
	Spongberg Limited?
	Yeah.
	As in LTD or really spelled out limited?
	LTD, yeah.
	LTD. What is...
	They're in Alberta.
	They make oil rigs or something.
	What?
	Wait a minute.
	Our top executive producer is an oil rig?
	An oil supply company.
	Really?
	Yeah, they supply big oil, different kinds of gear.
	You know, rope.
	I don't know.
	You're kidding me.
	That's awesome.
	Yeah, but they're also a knife.
	Wait a minute.
	They supply rope?
	Yeah.
	You've looked them up.
	Do they have a website?
	Well, you can look it up yourself.
	Spongberg, S-P-O-N-G-B-E-R-G. Big fans of the show.
	Really?
	Is that the whole company or just the CEO? How big is this company?
	I don't know.
	I don't know how big they are.
	The CEO sent us a note because now you've asked.
	Yeah.
	Okay.
	Anyway, they give us $275, so they're the executive producer.
	Oh, that's very nice.
	So the show's been being produced by an oil company.
	Yeah, there you go.
	Finally, you all, you guys can...
	It happened, finally.
	Yay!
	To the tune of $275.
	We're in the money!
	John, we've made it.
	We've officially made it now.
	Oh, my God.
	And then we have a new night.
	Okay.
	Cool.
	Um...
	So we have no associate executives?
	We just have one executive producer, Spongberg Limited.
	Well, we actually have a...
	There's something wrong with this list.
	Hey, this is not my fault.
	Well, while you're looking at the list...
	Okay, we got William Arcand.
	As what?
	As the Associate Executive Producer.
	Okay, William Arcand?
	Yeah, A-R-C-A-N-D. Arcand, okay.
	And he's in for $200.
	And he's also a knight now.
	We'll talk about that later.
	Okay, are we doing knighthoods at the top of the show, my friend?
	No, no, we do in the middle.
	Okay, good.
	And then Tom Schuring...
	From Zeist, Netherlands.
	S-C-H-U-R-I-N-G? Yeah.
	Oh, Tom is an old buddy of mine.
	Oh, really?
	I think he actually lives in Australia, or at least he did.
	Yeah, this is the guy that when I moved from the Curry Castle in Belgium, I had this whole, you know, I had my archive, like the Adam Curry radio archive, which consisted mainly of cassette tapes, you know, what we call skimmer tapes, where essentially whenever the microphone is open, the cassette recorder would record, and so there's no songs on it, no music.
	Yeah.
	It was a huge box.
	Yeah.
	I made a deal with him.
	He said, I'd love to archive that for you.
	I said, well, I'll send you everything.
	I sent videotapes and reel-to-reels and all kinds of stuff.
	I said, the only thing you have to promise me is that you also put it online.
	So if you go to clogwog.net...
	You will find my entire radio archive.
	And you know what else happened?
	Clogwog.net?
	Yes.
	Clogwog.
	I did a show in 1993 called Rave Radio, which was way ahead of its time.
	And someone put up a site, raveradio.nl, and they put all those...
	All those episodes, all those shows online.
	It's pretty amazing stuff.
	I was way ahead of the house curve.
	Some of the kids who built that site weren't even born when that show was on the air.
	By the way, I will mention that William Arcand is in Dracut, Massachusetts.
	So we want to thank Will Arcand, Tom Schuring, as our associate executive producers, and the executive producer...
	Can you say Tom's name again?
	Schuring.
	Gesundheit.
	In the morning!
	That's your one.
	And of course, our executive producer for this episode of No Agenda, episode 183, Spongberg Limited, supplying ropes to the oil industry since 1923.
	In Rocky Mountain House, Alberta, Canada, where, by the way, we get most of our oil here in the U.S. of A. It comes from Canada.
	It doesn't come from the Middle East, and nobody ever likes to mention it.
	And...
	Both Will and Tom, you can put this on your resume.
	It is known to get you gigs.
	It is known to get you laid.
	And it is known to just look generally good.
	And Spongberg, yeah, I don't know, maybe they should put it on their website, I guess, you know, as one of their activities.
	Supplying rope to the oil industry since 1929 and executive producer of No Agenda, episode 183.
	Perfect.
	I'm sure there's a lot of customers for Spongberg.
	He says business is good.
	Yeah, I betcha.
	What's oil at?
	81 bucks?
	Yeah, that's ridiculous.
	I betcha business is great.
	This is fantastic.
	Finally people can say, oh man, that new agenda is occurring to Vorak.
	It just shills for the big oil.
	Shills for big oil, I tell ya.
	Shills indeed.
	We did have somebody writing in that said...
	Hey, what difference does it make if you have commercials or you plug a website?
	You do that voice extremely well because that's exactly the voice I heard when I read the email.
	I was like, wow!
	Yeah.
	Well, of course, there's no difference, except we don't care about our sponsors.
	We care about our donors.
	We don't kiss their butts, and we don't care at all.
	We care about the listeners, especially the ones who contribute.
	Actually, we care about all of them.
	Yeah, we care about all of them.
	Everyone who supports us, we appreciate it.
	And we'll talk more about that later on in the show.
	So your top of the news is going to be, I'm guessing, I'm going to push you right into it.
	Okay.
	The airplanes, the airplane flight over that Northwest Airline flight that everybody's given up on even talking about.
	Oh, interesting you say that.
	It wasn't necessarily my top of the news, but yeah, let me just bring that one up.
	I was watching the Today Show yesterday, and they're top of the news.
	They go, whoa, news, big news, news.
	Tiger Woods.
	Yeah, of course.
	Bullshit.
	Here it is.
	The way I came upon this, I'm always interested in all kinds of aviation issues.
	I subscribe to a lot of geeky newsletters.
	And I found out that the NTSB, the National Transportation Safety Board, has released an entire...
	Actually, the link that I have in the show notes, nogenashow.com, under the Ministry of Truth Northwest Flyby heading, is actually the contents of a CD, which I guess they release...
	It has a whole bunch of affidavits and statements and everything from arrival charts to the Northwest Communication Procedures.
	And of course, the way this was played in the news was, oh, these guys, they fell asleep and they flew over Minneapolis!
	Or, they were arguing!
	So the news is that they're about to be...
	By the way, I love that they were arguing.
	Yeah, they're arguing.
	So they're about to be reinstated.
	They get their papers back and they can fly again.
	So I'm like, oh, that's interesting.
	So somewhere, someone made a deal.
	Because believe me...
	These guys, they've been dismissed with pay during this entire time, which is also interesting, because I think there was something else going on, and I don't really have, you know, like, aha, this is what was happening, other than that this plane was en route to Amsterdam.
	It had a stopover in Minneapolis.
	And where was it coming from?
	It was coming from San Diego.
	San Diego to...
	Via Minneapolis to Amsterdam.
	Well, actually, it's one of those code shares, so people would have to get off in Minneapolis and then go to Amsterdam.
	The reason I know that is I have the flight attendant statements.
	How many times do you read in the news what the flight attendants actually witnessed?
	Well, you don't.
	And there's a couple of them are handwritten.
	This one is from Barbara, who I think was the...
	Oh, she was in the galley aft.
	And just listen to this.
	It's kind of interesting.
	Brief before flight, normal procedures.
	Call during flight to cool off cabin.
	Call, turn on seatbelt sign.
	About 8.15 p.m.
	This is...
	8.15 p.m.
	is already 15 minutes into the flyby.
	They've already passed Minneapolis, according to all the other data.
	I called the pilots to find out our arrival time.
	We'd been told 8.01pm.
	Pilots said we would be in at 12 Greenwich time.
	I said I did not know the time.
	He said I was hosed and hung up.
	Bonnie, the lead, was on her way to the back, told her pilot's answer, and she said that it would be 9 p.m.
	Bonnie called from Ford phone at 8.30, got hung up on, once called again to get gate info for Amsterdam.
	Actually, it's spelled Amhersterdam here.
	I was there when she called, give and prepare for cabin that comes from the flight deck, landed at 9.15, met a gate by police and other officials and passengers asked to be seated and then deplaned.
	We had done arrival duties and left airports.
	They were completely unaware, actually, that they were an hour late and flew around in a big circle.
	So here's one from...
	What did he mean that he was hosed?
	The pilot told the flight attendant, if you don't know what 12 Greenwich Mean Time is, you're hosed.
	So they're supposedly either asleep, or they're arguing about work schedules.
	This is crap, because the flight attendants are basically saying, hey, aren't we supposed to land?
	So these pilots know something.
	Now here's from Carol Jones.
	There's a couple of interesting things here.
	Crew started out the day in MSP on flight 187 to San Diego.
	So the crew actually started in Minneapolis, flew to San Diego.
	Then there was a change in the flight deck crew out of San Diego.
	So different pilots came on board, which is not typical.
	Particularly because the Northwest hub is in Minneapolis.
	And she's making note of it.
	Change your flight deck crew.
	I introduced myself to the first officer and captain assigned to Flight 188.
	Had a conversation with the captain about turbulence from Minneapolis to San Diego.
	Asked about any turbulence from San Diego back to Minneapolis.
	He informed me that Flight 188 would be taking a different route.
	But he would be keeping us informed about turbulence.
	Left San Diego late.
	Now, she really says nothing interesting until she says, I felt we were in the air a little longer than normal.
	Upon landing, we disarmed the doors and received all call.
	Passengers got up and started moving bags.
	There was a PA that announced passengers should remain seated.
	Then there was a PA telling passengers they could deplane.
	I was in the back galley at this time.
	I could see individuals, including police officers, coming onto the plane, standing in the front galley, but they did not know why.
	Barb and I answered passengers' questions and waylaid concerns about the unusual deplaning process, connecting flights, etc.
	So, you know, there was no panic in the sky.
	The pilots were, in fact, another account here, the pilot actually went to the bathroom at 8.10 p.m., You know, so there's something, and the fact that these guys are being reinstated, I believe something happened up there, or they were put on this plane to purposely either delay the connections to Amsterdam or to, whatever they were doing, they were not supposed to land on time in Minneapolis.
	And they knew it.
	And they knew what was going on.
	I don't want to sound like you, but maybe this was a trial run for the crotch bomber in terms of setting up systems to bring people off the plane and the rest of it.
	What's also interesting is the cockpit voice recorder was purposely...
	Erased.
	Irregularly erased, I should say.
	After the plane landed, and you can see that in the cockpit voice recorder information.
	Oh, by the way, the cockpit microphone was damaged, so they didn't record anything in the cockpit.
	Uh-huh.
	Yeah.
	Oh, yeah.
	Coincidence?
	I think not!
	If the CVR had been deactivated or removed immediately after the plane was shut down, which you would expect after this type of event...
	The recording would have captured 17 more minutes of flight, assuming that power interruptions heard on the CVR occur at the same time it shows it was recorded.
	These subsequent power-ups, they get all kinds of times there.
	So what's your thesis here?
	My thesis is there was something, the fact that they're coming back, that they've been on the sideline being paid, and that they're going to be allowed to fly again, tells me that they've been told to shut up about whatever took place, And they absolutely were in control of the aircraft and their situational awareness at all times.
	And more people were aware of this, because you have the DEN, what does it stand for?
	Disaster Emergency Network or something.
	If an airplane has been out of contact with air traffic control for five minutes or more, immediately, that's when jets are supposed to get scrambled, essentially.
	Because then you contact the DEN, Which initially was not contacted, was contacted much later.
	And then DEN is basically the government who's supposed to take over.
	So my thesis is something went on that we're not being told.
	Well, I think we've got that figured out.
	Again, ladies and gentlemen, the great service of the No Agenda show.
	In the morning!
	But look, I just got this yesterday, so there's a lot of data I've got to go through.
	A lot of data.
	Well, which brings me to the suspicious story of the week.
	Tiger Woods?
	Oh no.
	Yes.
	No, the French Railway, SNCF, French high-speed trains, mistakenly put out a dramatic statement on its website saying that more than 100 people had died in a train explosion.
	And then everyone, of course, got into...
	When was this, John?
	When was this?
	This was like either...
	Do you have a link to this?
	Because I couldn't find a Google link anywhere to this.
	Well, I got a BBC story that ran on right here on March 16th, which is Tuesday.
	And...
	Yeah, you can look up French Train and you'll get it.
	I don't know how hard it would be to find.
	Let me try that Google search.
	French Train!
	And then hit the news button.
	French Train!
	Let me see.
	It's so hard to find.
	And then hit the news button.
	I'm following your instructions.
	Oh!
	French, you're right.
	French Railway SNCF in train explosion blunder.
	Wow!
	Let's talk about this, John.
	Yeah, so anyway, so here's what's suspicious to me.
	Besides the fact that this showed up at all as a train wreck, is the, is, and they say, well, maybe it was an exercise, we're doing it, there was a...
	Wait, wait, wait, wait, go back and tell the story.
	You gotta say exactly what the story was.
	Okay, on Tuesday, they released to the public the news that a French train, high-speed train from Paris to Dijon, had gotten, a big explosion happened on the train.
	Of course, these things go very fast.
	And so 102 people were confirmed dead.
	I'm reading it now.
	380 people injured.
	Yeah.
	So now it seems to me, and now they say, whoa, it was just an in-house training exercise.
	I'm going to read from the BBC report.
	The staff were asked to respond to a massive rail accident.
	A staff member had accidentally posted details of the pretend scenario on the official website.
	In the statement about the misunderstanding, the SNCF explained that it was obliged to practice emergency procedures for the safety of you.
	Yeah, okay, we know that.
	What mechanisms involved that would post us on a website is sketchy.
	And the other thing is, why would you have, you know, if you're going to do these exercises, you usually don't have something like 102 people dead, 380 injured.
	It's a little too specific.
	Right.
	So, what's your thesis on this, John?
	I think it was a...
	I think they were planning...
	They can't do it now, by the way.
	Which helps me on my thesis, because then, you know, it's undisprovable.
	But I think they were planning some sort of a scam...
	Trainwreck to incite people for one reason or another, for some political reason.
	You know what it reminds me of?
	Particularly, since this is a BBC story, this reminds me very much of...
	9-11, when the BBC announced World Trade Center 7 collapsed.
	Before it did.
	20 minutes before it collapsed.
	WTC 7 won't go away.
	So anyway, so this is a screwball story that falls into that category.
	I was watching, actually at the airport yesterday, coming back from, I was going from Oakland to Burbank.
	And I'm sitting there at the Southwest Terminal and I'm watching CNN. You can't hear it.
	It only has the subtitles.
	Right.
	And there's a...
	No, I'm sorry, not CNN. No, it's usually CNN. In Oakland?
	No, there was two screens.
	It must have been MSNBC because it was Rachel Maddow.
	Oh, okay.
	Or it must have been a repeat or something.
	I'm not quite sure.
	And it's Maddow interviewing little Timmy Geithner, our Secretary of the Treasury.
	And I read this on the subtitles, and when I got home, I had to find it, and luckily I was able to find it.
	As she talks about Timmy Geithner's political record and what he's done in his life, and I want you to hear the biggest lie in the entire universe coming straight out of his mouth, and of course, Miss Maddow does nothing to correct it, which is wrong!
	To speak in her vernacular.
	It's wrong!
	Listen to this.
	Your political image does not help them do that because you are seen as a Wall Street guy.
	She's talking about TARP and all that stuff.
	And of course this is all about the financial Wall Street reforms.
	Do you think that that image is unfair?
	First of all, you know this.
	I know you're not a lawyer.
	But everybody thinks you are.
	People think you worked for Goldman Sachs.
	They think you were a banker.
	I've never worked at Wall Street, just so your audience knows.
	You know, I spent every job I've had in life since I came out of graduate school, in effect, has been working as a public servant in government.
	Okay.
	Let me reiterate.
	Since I came out of graduate school, every job I've had in life has been as a public servant.
	Okay.
	In government.
	Please go to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York website And show me where it says that is a governmental institution.
	It is not.
	He is literally working for the banks.
	The Federal Reserve System consists of banks.
	They have financial statements that show their profit and loss.
	Nowhere on that do you say, oh, this is the government funding we get.
	Nowhere does it say that, because they are the broker for the United States.
	They are hired by the United States Treasury, but it is not a government service.
	He is not a public servant.
	Their financial statements are audited by Ernst& Young.
	You can download them right there.
	The same company, by the way, that helped Lehman Brothers, that signed off on Lehman Brothers' fake accounting before they took a dive...
	The exact same company, the same accountants who signed off on it, scam artists.
	Tim Geithner, you're a freaking liar.
	You did work literally for Wall Street.
	Every single Wall Street bank you worked for.
	All of them are on your board of governors.
	You bow to them.
	You are a...
	Shut up, slave!
	You are a slave to the bankers.
	And still are.
	And he sits there and he says, with complete Bambi eyes...
	I'm not a rock guy, but everybody thinks you are.
	People think you work for Goldman Sachs.
	They think you were a banker.
	I've never worked on Wall Street, just so your audience knows.
	You know, I spent every job I've had in life since I came into graduate school, in effect, has been working as a public servant in government.
	You know, I've never worked for a bank, never run a bank, never worked for a hedge fund.
	But, you know, I sat at the New York Fed, I sat at the Treasury, and I watched what financial crises do.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever.
	So it's funny that she doesn't say anything.
	Oh, nothing.
	Actually, I don't want to play the whole clip.
	And she's like, I know you're not.
	I know you're not.
	I know it's not true.
	Because I went to the White House for the Christmas party.
	I know.
	I know.
	Bitch.
	She's a part of it.
	You're an MKUltra slave, Rachel Maddow.
	Oh, brother.
	I can see where this show's headed.
	No.
	It just blew me away because people don't understand that the Federal Reserve and the banks that make up the Federal Reserve System are not a government institution.
	It is a play on words.
	Words matter.
	And Federal Reserve and Federal Reserve System is a commercial entity.
	They have a profit and loss statement.
	They publish it right there on their website.
	And they're a clearinghouse for the United States as per the Federal Reserve Act, which I am one of the people who believes that to be unconstitutional, since only Congress should be able to coin money.
	But that's a whole other show.
	Yeah, that we're never going to do, apparently.
	Maybe I'll do it on the Daily Source Code and it'll be a month-long show.
	Knock yourself out.
	You're going to start doing the Daily Source Code on Friday, understand?
	Tomorrow, yeah.
	Tomorrow.
	I figured I'd bring it back with a FUBAR Friday and the rest of my day.
	Today will be spent prepping for that.
	And, by the way, it's going to be different, although the same.
	I mean, everyone's like...
	Oh, you're going to have the hit test back.
	Oh, you're going to do this.
	It's like, the Daily Service card has always changed.
	It's always been something different.
	It's meant for experimentation purposes.
	And the only reason I'm doing it is because we have these sustaining producers for the No Agenda Stream at noagendastream.com and they're essentially supporting this coming back.
	So, that's why it's there.
	Okay, so, let's talk about something interesting.
	Unlike my uninteresting little bit there.
	Thanks, bastard.
	You're a Rachel Maddow hater.
	I sure am.
	So, I know you actually are.
	I mean, I can't even bring a Rachel Maddow clip on the show without you groaning about it.
	Here you run a long one.
	So, let's talk about the Toyota thing.
	Oh, you mean the warning to Japan?
	Yeah, the warning to Japan.
	But meanwhile, there's also...
	You know, why just have one thing going on at a time?
	Well, first of all, can I just remind our listeners that I predicted...
	First, my assertion, which I think you agreed to, was that this is...
	Yes, the government effectively owns General Motors, blah, blah, blah, blah, but Japan is now...
	A little bit larger in debt holdership of our debt over China, according to the numbers I've seen.
	And lest they get any ideas, this was essentially a, hey, shut up, take our debt and like it, or we'll bring down all of your companies.
	And I said, wait until they start doing recalls on Honda.
	And what did we see earlier this week?
	Honda recalls 410,000 cars for a brake problem.
	So I think I get to say I told you so on that one.
	Yeah, you do.
	And I think it was pretty obvious when we started talking about that's what this was all about.
	But there's also a secondary thing that keeps cropping up.
	And you know, the way I always say it, why do something with just one goal in mind when you can have numerous goals in mind?
	And the second goal is these black boxes that are put in these cars.
	Right, so I think it was actually, there's either a bill being written or proposed about putting a black box into cars so that we can, oh, it's only for statistics, of course.
	It's only, you know, hey, planes have black boxes, why not have one in your car?
	Of course, we know what the real hidden agenda is of that.
	But here's an interesting side story that came up, which is an ex-dealership employee has remotely disabled customers' cars in the United States.
	Yeah.
	More than 100 car owners had their cars remotely disabled after a sacked dealership employee in Austin, Texas.
	By the way, this is why you don't mess around with people who know how to use computers.
	Hacked into his ex-employer's computer and dealers in the U.S. have the ability, this I didn't know...
	To disable the cars of customers who default on their loan payments.
	They can also make the car's horns sound repeatedly to get the attention of loan defaulters.
	Honk, honk.
	Hey, honey, why is the horn honking?
	Honk, honk, honk, honk, honk.
	Pay, pay, pay.
	We have a voice in the thing yakking at you.
	Hey buddy, you gonna drive this car some more?
	Pay us, you owe us money.
	Yeah, this is an outfit called PayTech.
	Delivering innovative credit solutions for 10 years.
	And right there on their website, PayTech offers the potential to increase sales.
	How does that work?
	Well, here it is.
	The segment of credit risk customers has skyrocketed over the last several years.
	The addition of paytech controllers provides added protection and control to help you make sales targets and improve the bottom line at the same time.
	This is ridiculous.
	Yeah, so they can disable the vehicle and they can make the horn honk and apparently this was an employee who got fired and it's not like a big hack.
	I guess he had the password.
	He went in and he just at random started disabling cars and making their horns go off.
	The guy, of course, got arrested.
	Yeah, but you could probably, if somebody knew what they were doing, could probably have a lot more fun with this technology.
	And I would advise them to do so sooner than later, so we can get this crap out of these cars.
	Now, apparently in Australia, it's like a mandatory...
	I'm sorry, can I just say one thing?
	If you go to the PayTech website...
	On the website itself, there is a page.
	This is PayTech Online, the website for managing paytech devices.
	To manage WebTech Plus devices, please click here.
	So, essentially, and good luck.
	We don't condone this, but you can essentially start hacking away today, right on that site.
	They're asking for a login and a password.
	It's not secret.
	It's right on their regular website.
	Log in here to disable your customers' vehicles.
	This is terrible.
	Yeah, it's definitely not good.
	This is not a good thing in any way, shape, or form.
	People should know about this.
	I don't think half, I don't think 95% of the public realizes that this is going on.
	And how can this be legal?
	Does it say somewhere in your agreement, if you fail to pay, then we're going to disable your car?
	Which, by the way, could have potentially, it could create a dangerous situation.
	They make the common new, and if the car is actually running or moving, we will not do this.
	Right.
	But they obviously have the ability to.
	Right.
	I think it's pretty wrong.
	Yeah, but this is an overall meme.
	This is what One Star is about.
	This is what the black box proposal is about, is to essentially have more control over your life.
	And I say, go out and get yourself a 1999 Range Rover, where none of the electronics work.
	Or it will break.
	That's what you need.
	Some good...
	Which brings us to another point, which is how much of this stuff is on these Priuses and these newer Toyotas, and how much is hackable, even though they don't want to say anything.
	And they made a big point.
	Toyotas made a huge point to an extreme, despite people like Steve Wozniak, who's totally convinced it's the computer that's having these problems.
	And you'd think he might have a clue.
	But the Toyota people aren't even suggesting they're even looking into that.
	They're just in complete denial, or they're at least making public statements, in total denial of, oh no, there's no chance it's the computer.
	Now, with this kind of technology, and by the way, apparently in Australia, this is mandated.
	The Australians have been so screwed over, it's ridiculous.
	So everybody's got these black boxes.
	And by the way, if the black box can do this, it can see where you've gone.
	It can give you, you know, when is the next step, which is the obvious step, because we're trying to get more money into the taxpayers' coffers, when is the next step to say, we're going to look at everybody's black box, you know, from whatever years they are?
	I've been trying to look at plenty of people's black box and they haven't been very successful.
	Give yourself an in the morning.
	But anyway, when is the following scenario going to happen?
	And it will happen.
	Okay, hold on a second.
	We're writing this down.
	What will happen?
	John's making a prediction.
	The government is going to decide that it's okay to examine people's black boxes or during a smog check perhaps require the smog check people to do this.
	Look at the black box and see You know, look at the GPS data, see where you were, and then give you after-the-fact speeding tickets.
	Yeah, a ticket.
	Well, of course, this already happens in Gitmo Nation Lowlands, I know for sure, and I believe it's in other places as well, where they have...
	You know, metered lengths of highway.
	I mean, huge lengths of highway.
	So if your car rolls over step one, and then ten miles later, you arrive at checkpoint two, and you arrive there too fast, they'll give you a ticket.
	They calculate your average speed.
	That's been in the U.S. for a day.
	That's an old technology.
	By the way, have you seen these cop cars in San Francisco?
	I only noticed it yesterday.
	They've got three laser devices on the roof.
	Have you seen these?
	They got laser devices on the roof?
	Yeah, on the roof of the car.
	And what they do is they're scanning license plates as they drive by.
	They are?
	Yeah, they've got one on the left on the hood.
	Give me a second barcode reader?
	For license plates, yeah.
	They're scanning license plates.
	They're going to blind somebody with this technology.
	And then they issue a citation if your insurance has run out or whatever.
	Yeah, I've heard this from Tony.
	Tony, the guy who drives me to the airport.
	He's like, he, by the way, is a total nut job.
	I've connected with him.
	He's like, chemtrails, chemtrails.
	I'm like, okay, Tony, you're driving me all the time from now on.
	At least I can trust this guy.
	I'm not going to get too to the head from him.
	So, yeah.
	No, but what about your pacemaker?
	Hey, you didn't pay your insurance premium.
	Let's stop the pacemaker.
	Well, you might as well.
	This is just one more step before the total enchipment.
	Which you have scoffed at over the years when I say that they're on the road to this.
	But I see more and more evidence that, you know, it's chipping your pets and soon it's chipping your kids.
	And now I see, is it Verizon, I believe, who, oh, give your kid this cell phone in the mall.
	It's her first time alone in the mall, but you can track your kid, luckily, through your Verizon cell phone.
	This is all good, you know, so why not throw a chip in the kid?
	Well, we did look...
	What was the name of that website?
	The Chip Kid?
	What was it called?
	I think it's mychip.com, wasn't that it?
	Something like that, yeah.
	Maybe that's...
	Yeah, no, there's a site up there and they're claiming they chipped 200,000 kids already or something like that.
	Hmm...
	Huh, interesting.
	Mychip.com is just a single page now.
	I thought it was something else.
	Well, I was wondering whether it was a hoax.
	Oh, no, this is no hoax, man.
	This is the whole very chip, guys.
	No, this is real.
	My pets have been chipped forever.
	By the way, I got a pretty good...
	Mychip.org.
	Mychip.org.
	I got a pretty good site in the show notes how you can convert an old-fashioned flash camera into an RFID disabler.
	Because essentially, the flat, you have to do a little bit of hacking, but the old flashbulbs...
	They essentially create a little mini EMP event, and with that you can disable any RFID reader, and it's pretty easy to make.
	I am a little skeptical of that.
	I can't imagine getting enough oomph from an old flashbulb to do anything.
	You have to add a capacitor and a couple other things.
	You have to do a couple things.
	The thing blows sky high if you set it off.
	I'm lying!
	So, just briefly on the topic of sysadmins.
	But wait, before we go there, let's stay on this chip thing.
	I want to read something to people on mychip.org.
	It's from the Grand Lodge of the Massachusetts Child ID Program.
	It's some sort of a...
	What is this?
	It's a Masonic Youth Child Identification Program.
	It has identified more than 250,000 children since its inception.
	It goes on and on and...
	I find this whole thing to be weird.
	But anyway, people go out there.
	Go to mychip.org and check it out and see what you think.
	Well, they're starting here.
	It is fingerprinting, tooth prints, cheek swab.
	Yeah, that's for your DNA, so they can get the DNA in.
	And by the way, I don't have the clip today.
	I'm going to talk about this on Sunday.
	But, you know, we watch all these TV shows where, you know, they give the swab, and then ten minutes later, the guy's arrested for, you know, being a killer.
	They were talking about, I was recording, listening to C-San, listening to the FBI Mueller being grilled from one congressman after another, mostly kissing his butt, of course, but a couple of them asking some real questions.
	And they're like 90 days behind on normal DNA testing everywhere in the country.
	It would take three months.
	I'll tell you.
	Oh, yeah.
	You mean to identify?
	A really long episode if they actually did any of these things.
	That's such bullcrap.
	The Grand Lodge of Massachusetts dates back to 1733.
	It was the first in the New World.
	That's pretty scary.
	Let me put that into the show notes.
	A Q-tip is gently rubbed on the inside of a child's cheek to gather DNA material.
	Not my kid, buddy.
	Let me tell you that.
	Not my kid.
	No freaking way.
	So can I do my sysadmin thing?
	Yeah, go.
	So you know that we have a lot of system administrators and network admins who we appreciate, and I certainly appreciate them, because they hold a lot of secrets, they hold the keys to our connected universe, and they actually will save the world when the demise comes.
	And lo and behold, there's a short story written by, not a guy I'm a fan of, by the way, Cory Doctorow.
	This story is the winner of the 2007 Locus Award for Best Novelette.
	It's called When Cisadmins Ruled the Earth.
	It's a very bleak story, but it's well-written.
	It's factually incredibly correct when it comes to the culture of sysadmins and the honesty and the values they have.
	And it was so good that I actually, there's a little PayPal button there and I donated on behalf of No Agenda.
	Feel free to donate more if you want to.
	But it's a great story and I actually sent it to a couple of guys in the office and they said they couldn't stop reading it.
	It'll take you like 30 minutes.
	Once you start reading it, you just can't stop, and it's really, really good.
	Of course, you could watch the IT crowd and think you know what system, like, oh, these are all just geeks, but these are real people who have real values that I think are commendable.
	No, I agree.
	Actually, I had a clip from the IT crowd, which was kind of weird.
	They were doing like an anti...
	It was a spoof, but was it really?
	An anti-copyright warning, essentially.
	Let's see if I can find that real quick.
	Here it is.
	It's pretty funny when you listen to it.
	Hold on.
	The IT crowd piracy ad.
	So they're sitting down in front of the TV to watch television.
	Here comes the ad.
	You wouldn't steal a handbag.
	You wouldn't steal a car.
	You wouldn't steal a baby.
	You wouldn't shoot a policeman and then steal his helmet.
	You wouldn't go to the toilet in his helmet.
	And then send it to the policeman's grieving widow.
	And then steal it again!
	Downloading films is stealing.
	If you do it, you will face the consequences.
	The FBI comes in and shoots the downloader with two to the head with a silencer.
	The only thing that actually struck me...
	Where did that show up?
	What was that from?
	The IT Crowd.
	That's that sitcom.
	So this, of course, is a British series.
	What's interesting is you wouldn't shoot a policeman and steal his hat, and it's actually a bobby with one of those bobby hats.
	And then the next one is you wouldn't go to the toilet in the hat, and you see the guy with his pants down around his ankles taking a dump in the hat.
	I have heard, just as a side note, and my daughter actually said this was true, and I guess maybe it's an urban legend, but apparently if you are a pregnant woman in the United Kingdom and you have to pee...
	A Bobby is obliged to give you his hat to pee in.
	Has he got a pointy thing on the top so you can just stick it in the ground so it stands up?
	Yeah, exactly.
	She said that she was going to try the theory and I said, it'll be very hard to bail you out through PayPal.
	You may not want to do that.
	Can I crap in your hat?
	No, it's not for crapping.
	It's only for peeing and only if you're pregnant.
	Okay.
	But that apparently is a meme.
	For crapping.
	Hats are not for crapping.
	Okay, there's got to be somebody that knows whether this is a law or not.
	I mean, you know what, it doesn't surprise me if it was.
	It could be one of those really old things, you know.
	I was asked specifically by a number of our listener producers to bring this bill to light.
	Alright, so it's House Bill, Senate Bill, S-3081, known as the Enemy Belligerent Interrogation, Detention, and Prosecution Act of 2010.
	You will find this in the show notes at NoAgendaShow.com under Gitmo Nation.
	And, of course, the frightening thing about this, and this is about, here it is, Military Custody Requirement.
	Whenever within the United States its territories and possessions or outside the territorial limits of the United States, i.e.
	everywhere in the freaking universe, an individual is captured or otherwise comes into the custody or under the effective control of the United States who is suspected Of engaging in hostilities against the United States or its coalition partners through an act of terrorism or by other means in violation of the laws of war or of purposely and materially supporting such hostilities and who may be an unprivileged enemy belligerent,
	the individual shall be placed in military custody for purposes of initial interrogation and determination of status in accordance with the provisions of this act.
	So, we've gone from, you know, enemy combatant to belligerent.
	Belligerent.
	John.
	That's you, Adam.
	You're belligerent.
	That's my point.
	This is what I'm so worried about.
	So, I look up the word belligerent.
	Right.
	The military definition of belligerent is slightly different.
	Well, but this is the United States government.
	And belligerent, adjective, one, inclined or eager to fight, inclined, hostile or aggressive, two, of pertaining to or engaged in warfare, one, that is hostile or aggressive.
	I mean, that could be pretty much anybody who listens to this show.
	Yeah.
	Or likes Ron Paul.
	Yeah, or who produces this show.
	And of course, once you're in military hands, then you can be held indefinitely.
	And then you can get evaluated, and then you're either a high-value detainee or a high-value detainee interrogation group.
	Yeah.
	And then they waterboard your ass.
	Well, or whatever they want to do.
	You don't hear about this type of stuff, but it has a lot of high-profile co-sponsors.
	Yeah, who wrote the bill again?
	The bill is...
	Hold on a second.
	Let me...
	And I suppose this bill is needed because we don't have enough militarization of the country already?
	We need more.
	Why don't we just get rid of the court system and let the military do the whole thing?
	They do a pretty decent job.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Just bring them on the street.
	So the sponsor, and this bill was introduced on March 4th, 2010, Senator John McCain of Arizona.
	Oh!
	And then there's nine co-sponsors.
	The brand new senator from Massachusetts, Scott Brown.
	Right in on it.
	Right in.
	Then we have Saxby Chambliss, Inhofe, James Inhofe, George Lemieux.
	What is it, like a French bastard sitting there in the government?
	Mario Lemieux.
	Pepe Le Pew.
	Then we have Joe Lieberman.
	Jeff Sessions, John Thune, David Vitter and Roger Wicker.
	Oh yeah, all the supporters of human rights in the United States and privacy.
	And so these are pretty high-profile co-sponsors.
	And I guess we could, I'm looking at Thomas.
	I guess we could see what the status is.
	So right now it is, where's the status?
	Isn't there some place where I can see what the status is?
	Bill, Summary, and Status.
	Why doesn't it tell me what it is?
	Oh, latest major action referred to Senate Committee status.
	Read twice, referred to the Committee on the Judiciary.
	So it's now in committee already.
	Yeah, well, they could be killed there.
	It depends on whether the public gets wind of this.
	Luckily, McCain is a lightning rod for the conservatives who are trying to get him out of his job, basically, by running somebody against him that's more conservative than he is in the Republican primary.
	And it's possible that being a lightning rod, some of the right-wing talk show guys will pick up on this and start slamming it.
	That would probably end it.
	They seem to be pretty consumed, though, with the health care bill.
	Oh, yeah, that's the only thing you can think about.
	By the way, so the health care thing, which is becoming a fiasco, and it also had nothing to see here moment, there was something interesting.
	I have a clip.
	Let me see if I can find my clips.
	I have a clip from a Hannity show where he has Dick Morris on.
	Now, Dick Morris was a security advisor?
	No, no.
	Dick Morse was a...
	He's a campaign manager.
	He's like a Karl Rove type of consultant that used to work for Clinton.
	And he's the guy who got busted for being with a bunch of one-too-many hookers.
	Yay!
	And so they rousted him out of office, and now he's just been a mean-spirited, you know, shill for the Republican Party.
	But...
	Really?
	And he's still irked about it, and he writes a column that's always, he's the one who tried, but he's also like, he's talking about COINTELPRO in terms of his style.
	He's the one who was trying to push the Republicans into running, although they could have done worse, in terms of the fact that they lost.
	But he kept pushing them, thinking that Hillary was going to run.
	He said the only way the Republicans could win would be to run Condoleezza Rice for president.
	Oh, right, I remember that, right?
	And he was dead serious about it.
	I mean, he wasn't really...
	I think he was just trying to get him to do it because it would have been a complete fiasco.
	But so he shows up on Fox a lot now and he makes a bunch of weird comments.
	But he actually made something that was kind of interesting on Hannity.
	And the curious thing is that Hannity completely missed the whole point.
	It just flew right over his head and Hannity went on with something else.
	But I think we should play this little clip and then we can discuss...
	an aspect of it.
	He's going to tackle you.
	It's the same talking points.
	The administration has decided through all of its surrogates to get the message out that they're going to pass the bill.
	And I'm sitting here wondering why.
	Because if...
	Because there's no point in that.
	The more the bill is likely to pass, the more you're likely to vote against it.
	Because the first thing that's going to happen is it's going to ruin the health care system.
	Everybody's going to suddenly be paying a tax.
	Everybody's going to suddenly have their insurance premiums go up, which they might anyway, but now they'll blame the bill.
	You know what Colin Powell said about Iraq?
	You break it, you own it.
	Well, Obama will be responsible for everybody that doesn't have a stubbed toe properly treated once this thing passes, and the Democrats will take it on the chin.
	But And Becker will explain it later, but I think what he's saying is they've got an ace in the hole.
	They've shown a willingness to bribe.
	They've shown a willingness to do whatever it takes.
	Wait a minute.
	I missed something important there at the end.
	Hold on a second.
	For everybody that doesn't have a stubbed toe properly treated, once this thing passes, the Democrats will take it on the chin.
	So what is he saying there, John?
	Well, apparently Hannity didn't know, but that was pretty obvious if you listen to it.
	First of all, the triggering point for this message, and you have to assume this is true with a guy like Morris, when he says they were talking about how all the operatives of the Democratic Party are told by the administration to say that the bill is a done deal, they're going to pass the bill.
	And so Morris' triggering point here, if you want to break it down, is he says, I was wondering why.
	And then he explained that the reason he's wondering why is because if the bill is going to be so easily passed, it gives everybody in the Democrat Party, especially the Blue Dogs, the opportunity to vote no on it without having to worry about, you know, it not passing.
	Right, because they can always say, hey, look, I voted against it and it passes anyway.
	Yeah, it wasn't my fault.
	They can say it to their constituents, because there's a lot of Democrats that are in congressional districts where people don't want this bill to pass.
	And they're obliged to pass it because of the promises made during the campaign.
	But they just as soon vote no if they can.
	And if the message is out there that it's a done deal and it's passed, well, then they can obviously vote no.
	And so Morris says, why are they doing it?
	You know, this doesn't make any logical sense.
	Now, but if you take it one...
	And, of course, Hannity didn't pick up on any of that and went on something else.
	But...
	Which is unbelievable.
	Wait a minute.
	We have to play a little douchebag first.
	Douchebag!
	So here's what I was trying to say, well that's an interesting theory, and is there a way of looking at this in a meta way?
	In other words, can we look above it?
	And perhaps in Morris' bewilderment, let's assume that it's done on purpose and for a reason, which is to make sure that the bill actually doesn't pass.
	Because Morris makes a bunch of interesting points.
	If the bill passes and the insurance rates go up, and don't forget, we got the election in 2012.
	It's two years away.
	Let's say this thing passes.
	Next thing you know, the insurance rates go up.
	People don't get their stubbed toe fixed.
	All these things happen.
	All you start hearing is complaining for the next two years about, well, you passed this bill and we got screwed in the deal.
	And most people think, and by the way, today's the day the budget group comes out.
	Congressional, the CBO. CBO. So anyway, so the possibility exists that, and I believe this is the beginning, since Obama's got more money than anybody else from the insurance companies.
	No, this is fact.
	Go ahead and look.
	He got $800 million from Wall Street insurance companies and Wall Street banks.
	How about this for an idea?
	First they try this crazy scheme to just pass some sort of a memo to make it look as though they approve some bill, which nobody's going for.
	And then they have these talking points.
	It's almost as if the Democrats are doing everything they can at the highest levels, in other words, Obama's boys.
	To submarine this bill so it doesn't get passed, but in such a way that they don't get blamed for it.
	They can say, we tried, the Republicans screwed it up.
	This is despite the fact that they got this huge majority every which way.
	The Republicans screwed it up.
	We tried.
	And then they can be kind of blameless for the thing going down the tubes.
	Blame Rush Limbaugh.
	Blame the blue dog Democrats.
	They can just throw blame at everybody and try to move on to the next thing because this thing is already a fiasco.
	And the way it's headed, if it does pass, it could actually be more damaging than the fact that...
	That Obama couldn't get it passed.
	I mean, you have two things, two bad things that can happen.
	One, Obama doesn't get the bill passed.
	It's a season incompetent.
	Or if he does get it passed and it goes south, which is likely in the way Dick Moore sees it, then Obama gets blamed for all this idiotic, you know, the public didn't want it because, you know, they pushed the polls in the other direction.
	I mean, it just seems to me that this is rigged not to pass.
	It's interesting because another thing I saw yesterday is that Dennis Kucinich, who I believe to be the Democratic Ron Paul, after the president literally took him on the plane, on the Air Force One, and, you know, wined and dined him, the guy flipped.
	He says, okay, now I'm voting for it.
	It's really important.
	I've got to do this.
	And that was disappointing.
	Yeah, but it was also, yeah, but here's what it looks like.
	It was disappointing on the surface, but was it really, or was it just theater that went as follows?
	Obama's so hard up to get anybody to vote for this thing that he gives them a free ride home on Air Force One at the cost of some godly amount of money.
	Which, by the way, would get me to flip in a second.
	I'd be like, you're great.
	Can I ride in the cockpit?
	So they fly him up there for some ungodly amount of money that the cost of flight is $747, and he flips over, and it looks like he was bribed, and there's a meme out there, bribed, oh, everyone's bribing, the Nebraska guys bribed, bribed, bribed, bribed.
	Louisiana land purchase.
	It actually makes it look worse.
	Interesting.
	Interesting.
	Then it makes it look better, and I think it may be part of the theater.
	Now, whether Kucinich is part of the scheme, I doubt.
	But he played the role perfectly.
	What's happening there, John?
	Do you have helicopters flying over?
	It's the garbage truck.
	Oh, black garbage truck.
	It's garbage day.
	It's garbage day.
	Nothing exciting.
	Nothing to see here.
	Move along.
	It's garbage day here in Northern California.
	Well, that's very interesting.
	And of course, this is the week, or maybe next week, I guess, is when something's supposed to happen.
	Sunday.
	Oh, really?
	You think Sunday?
	That's what everybody thinks, yeah.
	Wow.
	Wow.
	Okay.
	So we'll see.
	I mean, I think we're seeing a lot of theater on both sides of the aisle, and it's like what they really want is still up in the air, and I think it's going to bomb out.
	So it won't pass is what you're saying?
	I'm thinking it's not going to pass, and I think the reason for it is Obama's boys have decided that they're going to have to pull back on this one.
	And they might as well just blame it on the Republicans and move on.
	Yeah, and this way Kucinich, by the way, gets off.
	You know, he doesn't get...
	It's like it could have been brought into the deal and said, look, here's what we're doing.
	You can flip now and then at least when the thing bombs out, you won't get blamed.
	But if you're one of the people that was on the other side, we're going to throw blame at you.
	So maybe it's a good idea, even though we know you hate this bill.
	Don't worry, it's not going to pass, but we know you hate it.
	So if you just flip over to our site for now, which will help us in our scheme, you won't get to take any of the brunt of it and everything's good.
	Although it just seems so perpendicular to his stance on the illegal war and all of this.
	It's just like, what?
	It just makes no sense that he did that.
	Well, it makes sense in that regard if you think about it as theater.
	Right.
	So I think the whole thing is going to fall down, and I think the reason is because of this...
	I think Morris has nailed it.
	I think he hit it right on the money.
	He says people are going to blame Obama for every stubbed toe over the next two years, and it's going to make it difficult for him to get re-elected.
	Meanwhile, we had our first earthquake here in Los Angeles.
	Yeah.
	There's a mild one, though.
	Yeah, actually it was very, very mild, and I'll tell you why in a second, but you have to go back four days when we had another earthquake off the coast of central Japan, which of course did not make the news at all.
	Tokyo felt it.
	It was 50 miles off the eastern coast of Fukushima Prefecture.
	And that was a 6.6 magnitude.
	And then, of course...
	We got a little flick of the switch of the earthquake machine here in Los Angeles.
	You know, they have a lot of earthquakes in Los Angeles, and they existed before these...
	Before the earthquake machines?
	It's funny, because it woke us up.
	You know, we were in bed, and I don't know how long it was going on, but all of a sudden, all the windows started to rattle, and we both woke up, and I said to Miss Mickey, I say, it's an earthquake.
	Is that your first earthquake?
	No, but it's the first one since I've been actually in California living.
	I've had a previous one.
	Where?
	In Los Angeles.
	I was at the St.
	James Club Hotel on the 12th floor.
	And I remember I'd been working all day.
	I was MTV days.
	And I had a beer.
	And I'm like, whoa, this beer really hit me.
	Oh, no, wait a minute.
	The building is swaying.
	It actually is swaying.
	But this was funny because I'm so into the earthquake machines and everything.
	Was that Mickey's first earthquake?
	Yeah, I believe so.
	What did she think?
	Well, here's what happened.
	So we both wake up.
	We're lying in bed.
	And I was like, yeah, it's an earthquake.
	Yeah, it's an earthquake.
	And I stopped.
	And then she grabbed me really tight and she said, I'm just taking advantage of the situation.
	And then we went back to bed.
	Or back to sleep.
	I was like, yeah, flick the switch again, boys!
	This is good news!
	However, it did make me research something.
	Actually, it was Eddie, formerly known as the intern, now full-time staffer at Mevio, who said, you know, that 4.4 is actually really low on the Richter scale.
	It's very low.
	But I remember we had talked about this, John, because the Richter scale is no longer used.
	In 2007, or 2008, I believe, you and I talked about this on No Agenda, they changed the measurement of earthquakes from the Richter scale to the moment magnitude scale, which actually measures higher than a Richter scale.
	So a 4.4 probably would have been maybe a 3 on the old Richter scale, and it's still kind of unclear why they made that change.
	That's interesting.
	I didn't even know that.
	Well, you forgot, but we did talk about it.
	Well, I think I'm going to talk to the...
	We have a seismology group over here at the University of California.
	And I'll go over there and find out what's going on.
	So here's the article which Eddie dug up for me from 2008.
	Trouble is the Richter scale doesn't work very well.
	The way it's defined means it can't measure quakes above 6.8, which is interesting.
	Because we had that 8.8 in Chile, so it means they're talking about the ML, or the Moment Magnitude Scale.
	What's more, when it comes to very faint quakes, which couldn't be detected back in the 30s, it gives a negative number.
	That's because it's a logarithmic scale.
	An increase of one point on the Richter scale is a tenfold change in the amplitude of the seismic wave being measured.
	Nowadays, geologists have a new scale, the Moment Magnitude Scale, or NW, It's much more useful because it measures the amount of energy released in the quake rather than the size of the seismic wave.
	So anyway, the bottom line is, we really don't know what this means anymore.
	I guess not.
	You know, it's like baseball statistics.
	They worry about these steroid users because now you can't really compare Babe Ruth to a new player today because they've got different muscles.
	And it's unfair.
	So now, in other words, we can't say, well, there was that big quake in Alaska, that 8 or 9 or wherever the heck it was that uplifted half the country, and compare it to what we have today because the scale is different, so we don't know.
	That's terrible.
	It's a plot, I tell you.
	Well, it makes it difficult to...
	Just on the...
	So anyway, let's get back to your little quake.
	It rattled the place and it was only a 4?
	4.4.
	I mean, it really rattled the windows.
	You must have been sitting right on top of it.
	It was actually exactly the same distance from downtown LA, only on the other side.
	But it was only, you know, it was East LA, basically.
	So how many miles was the epicenter from your abode?
	Well, I could check.
	I think I have the link somewhere.
	If it was in 10 or 20 miles, I suppose it could be pretty rough.
	I'll tell you right now.
	It was the epicenter...
	It was one kilometer from Pico Rivera, 17 kilometers from Los Angeles Civic Center.
	It was really shallow, though.
	Depth of only half a kilometer.
	Wow.
	That's weird.
	Yeah, it doesn't make any sense, really.
	No, I'm sorry.
	I misread that.
	18.9 kilometers.
	I'm sorry.
	That was the depth.
	Alright.
	But the funny thing was, I was completely not worried.
	I was like, oh, whatever.
	Yeah, no, actually, most Californians are that way.
	You always get a kick out of people on the East Coast who've never had an experience.
	They get hurricane after hurricane, killing people left and right, or tornadoes in the Midwest.
	And they're all scared to death of the idea of an earthquake.
	Yeah.
	We both agreed if both of our moms had been alive, they would have been on the phone immediately.
	Hey, hi, how you doing?
	Everything okay with the earthquake?
	You know how moms can be, right?
	No, it's all right.
	We're good.
	We're good.
	Oh, it was terrible.
	Yes.
	Send money.
	My sister, yeah, send money.
	PayPal me something, Mom.
	My sister actually did check-in from Italy.
	And it's funny, you know, it's crazy.
	You know, she's a fan of the show, that Willow.
	Oh, yeah.
	Oh, yeah.
	She listens all the time.
	She actually sent me a note.
	She said, you know, because she just recently bought a British car.
	Yeah, she's on a five-month, $5 a month plan.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Oh, yeah.
	Hell, yeah.
	I love my sisters.
	What about the other sister?
	Is she listening?
	Is she giving us a plan?
	No!
	She doesn't listen.
	She's not on the plan.
	She doesn't care.
	She does not care about the show.
	She doesn't care about the world, then.
	So, I was making kind of a weird transition here because let's just presume that we can go from earthquakes to climate change.
	I did not know the Bill Maher show was back on.
	The real time with Bill Maher.
	Yeah.
	And I think you hate Bill Maher with the same passion that I hate Rachel Maddow.
	I don't know that I hate him.
	Well, but there was a very interesting clip.
	With Amy Holmes.
	Yeah, sweet Amy Holmes.
	She's a black woman correspondent and a black conservative who's extremely intelligent, quick-witted, and...
	And hot.
	And hot.
	Go ahead and say it.
	She's hot.
	She's very pretty.
	And so it's about...
	So there's two people on the panel with her.
	One is a Republican who's just basically like a dishrag sitting next to you.
	He's not really doing anything.
	And then there's another guy who's written some book.
	And the topic of climate change comes up.
	And the reason why I'm playing this clip is not because of the video.
	I actually viewed it as a YouTube clip.
	And when I was watching it, I was watching it on my iPhone.
	And it came through really blocky and I couldn't really see it.
	So I wasn't even watching the video, but I was listening to the track.
	And that's why I want to play it for our listeners.
	And you tell me if you pick up on the same thing I picked up on, John.
	I'm just going to play a few bits here.
	I want to bring up this issue, because I think, as long as we're talking about healthcare, this is the ultimate healthcare issue.
	The environment.
	And here's the Weekly Standard, which is the Bible of conservatism.
	And there's Al Gore, you see?
	Exposed!
	Gotcha!
	See, it snowed this year, so Al Gore is a douchebag.
	Case closed on climate science.
	And this is my question for conservatives.
	Don't you want to live too?
	I do not understand.
	I just don't get it.
	The people who write this magazine, they're not intellectually deficient.
	They must know that every serious climate scientist in the world...
	You could have heard it by now.
	I presume you haven't heard it yet.
	I mean, if you read the newspaper, I know, an old-fashioned tactic...
	But every week there's something that's more frightening than the last.
	But Bill, these blizzards that we had in Washington, D.C., RFK Jr., he said, and he supports this global warming theory, he said that he would never see snowfalls like he did in his childhood because of global warming.
	And what did we get?
	We got three blizzards in a row this last Christmas.
	So I don't think that weather patterns tell us whether or not global warming is happening, but people who advocated for global warming, they told us weather patterns can tell you if it's happening.
	Are you skeptical?
	Are you a global warming skeptic?
	I'm a skeptic.
	You are?
	I am a skeptic.
	How could that be?
	Because I don't think...
	Okay, now it's going on the whole time and you're not picking up on it.
	What?
	It's a laugh track.
	There's a laugh track during this entire show.
	So I'm going to play you a laugh track.
	I'm going to play you a laugh track.
	And the way you pick up on laugh track, so this is basically coming from the Apple Logic Pro library.
	You pick up on a laugh track when you hear, there's always either a man or a woman going, and it's the same woman over and over again.
	Listen again.
	Right?
	Now, I'm just going to play little bits here.
	I'll take it back a little bit.
	It's happening the whole time.
	I never see snowfalls like he did in his childhood because of global warming.
	And what did we get?
	We got three blizzards in a row this last Christmas.
	So I don't think that weather patterns tell us whether or not global warming is happening, but people who advocated for global warming, they told us weather patterns can tell you if it's happening.
	Are you skeptical?
	Are you a global warming skeptic?
	I'm a skeptic.
	You are?
	I am a skeptic.
	How could that be?
	Because I don't think it's science.
	Do you hear the woman going, ha, ha, ha, ha?
	Yeah.
	You'll hear it the whole time.
	I just were involved in it themselves.
	And the thing is, they mix it in with the crowd actually clapping, because from time to time, you know, it's a very progressive, liberal crowd, and they will clap, but even then, and I hear this.
	I mean, it's so clear to me, and they're using standard libraries just to make it worse, but they're mixing it in with the actual crowd.
	You can hear the difference.
	Yeah, they're sweetening it.
	They're totally sweetening it.
	You know that Phil Jones also said...
	Hold on.
	You're so smart.
	You don't smoke the pot.
	You haven't blown your mind out in a car because you didn't notice...
	You don't know that, actually, she says about the pot.
	I see.
	But do you hear it?
	Do you hear it?
	Yeah, and what they're doing is drowning her out.
	Yep.
	So there it is.
	This is the actual track they're using.
	This is from the Logic Pro sound library.
	I mean, the whole thing is sweetened.
	And I went back and I looked at some episodes from...
	I got an episode from 2008 with Richard Dawkins...
	If you want, I mean, I can bring that one up.
	And they're doing it the whole time.
	They're sweetening these interviews with laugh tracks continuously.
	And I was just blown away by it.
	I'm like, oh my god.
	I spoke with the Oxford professor who's bestseller.
	Let me see if I can get a bit of laughter.
	I just want to ask you is...
	Maybe here.
	Their flight is cancelled.
	Uh...
	What I first want to ask you is, why is this book such a phenomenon?
	It was so much more than just a bestseller.
	It's hard because this guy's not very funny, actually.
	People would be interested to find out that in the book you establish a scale of one to seven of atheists.
	Come on.
	Seven being someone who is utterly certain there is not, but you yourself...
	There it is.
	You really hear it here.
	...fairies, but I think it would be unscientific.
	You hear it right over the guy.
	...commit himself to saying there definitely is not anything.
	I mean, I can't definitely commit myself to saying there are no fairies.
	I'm pretty sure there are no fairies, but I think it would be unscientific.
	Oh, yeah.
	Well, you can really hear that one woman.
	It's the same woman over and over again, and it comes, as far as I can tell, it comes directly from the Apple Logic Pro library.
	Yeah, no, you're right.
	That's totally sweet, and that is not a natural laugh in an audience like that.
	And we, you know, how easily do we forget?
	It's like laughing while talking to your neighbor kind of thing going on.
	Everyone's really happy.
	Yeah.
	So I was just like, wow, this show is so fake that they, you know, they have to punch.
	I mean, sometimes there's actual laughter, but then when you really focus on the show and you're listening really, really closely, you can hear the actual audience who sometimes do laugh and applaud.
	But then when you hear that...
	It's a sitcom.
	It's basically a sitcom.
	The thing is completely fake.
	Bill Maher is fake.
	He's a shill.
	It's fake.
	I recommend you not watch it anymore.
	Unless you're just going to watch it.
	Don't look at the picture.
	Just listen to the laugh track.
	Yeah, good catch.
	It's hilarious.
	You win this week.
	Thank you.
	Then I will bring you another good one.
	This is Barroso.
	I need to go over to Gitmo Nation East or to the United States of Europe.
	And there's a YouTube clip that someone pointed out to me.
	So we have this European Union, which is now the United States of Europe ever since the Lisbon Treaty, which was passed without the peoples of the European Union.
	Union actually voting on it.
	In fact, the French and the Dutch voted no when it was still called the European Constitution.
	And so now all the power is central in Brussels.
	And here is Barroso, who is the president of the European Commission, which I affectionately call Starfleet Command, talking to journalists.
	And, well, listen to what he compares the European Union to.
	Sometimes I like to compare the European Union as a creation to the organization of empires.
	The empires.
	And because we have the dimension of empires, but there is a great difference.
	The empires were usually made through force, with a center that was imposing a diktat, a will on the others.
	And now we have what some authors call the first non-imperial empire.
	There you go.
	They did it!
	We built an empire without force!
	We're really smart!
	Which is basically the confessions of an economic hitman, which we'll talk about probably again in the future, mainly because Perkins and people out there can go find this video somewhere.
	Perkins, a couple years ago, did Apologies of an Economic Hitman, where he brings up a few new issues, but essentially it's a documentary about it.
	Yes, I actually found a Google video version of that.
	Thank you for giving that to me on DVD. So I've put that in the show notes already so people can watch that for themselves.
	Yeah, it's entertaining.
	And the New York Times and some other high-end critics said, well, it's a little dramatic.
	Yeah, no, it's dramatic, yeah.
	In other words, it's not boring.
	Right.
	So here's a story I want to discuss.
	Which is, I have the clip here, and I think which kind of sets it up.
	This is from O'Reilly.
	About a couple of different, there's two episodes in Massachusetts of eighth graders that apparently were sexting or whatever.
	And I think that it needs a little bit of discussion because this phenomenon, I think O'Reilly's correct that it's an epidemic, but I don't think anybody's solution for it has been discovered yet.
	You want to play that clip?
	Yes, I do.
	Here we go.
	In fact, the following segment tonight is becoming very clear that cell phones are corrupting many American children.
	Almost every week we hear of kids sending explicit photographs of themselves or other kids to other kids.
	It's an epidemic.
	In Massachusetts, two recent cases are simply terrible.
	Joining us now from Boston Child Advocate and Attorney Wendy Murphy.
	You know, what's disturbing about these cases is that they're in suburbs that are affluent.
	Belmont, Sudbury, Massachusetts, you know them well, I know them well.
	Normal kids from homes that you would have supervision in, you would think.
	But let's take the Belmont case, that's the most recent.
	First, you know, some kid was selling pictures of a naked child, correct?
	Yeah, a girl in the eighth grade took a naked picture of herself, sent it to her boyfriend, and he then sold to a lot of boys...
	A fine entrepreneur.
	Sold pictures, those pictures, to his friends for five bucks apiece.
	Eighth grader.
	Eighth grade girl.
	Eighth grader.
	Both eighth grade.
	That's right.
	That's middle school.
	We're not even talking about high school.
	No, I know.
	That's why it's so shocking.
	Now, the school authorities, they know who was involved with this.
	What have they done?
	You know, it's such a good question and parents want to know.
	But a lot of this stuff is going to be hidden under that confidentiality claim.
	So we don't know publicly.
	The school has not said to the public or to the press, hey, we have done this to the kids involved.
	They haven't said anything.
	No.
	And I think that they won't, which is really sad.
	Parents have a right to know and they need to know.
	Parents should demand a school board meeting.
	Parents should go in, demand it.
	We'll be there.
	You'll be there.
	We'll find out.
	Now, the authorities, this is a crime.
	Well, it is a crime.
	And to the extent it's prosecuted as a crime, unfortunately, I think they're going to treat it as a juvenile crime, which is, again, all confidential.
	But, you know, the rumors are, I'll tell you this, the rumors are that the girl is gone and the boy that sold the pictures is going to go to court.
	But, again, if it's a juvenile court where nobody knows anything and eventually it gets wiped off his record, I'm not saying he should go to jail, don't get me wrong, but the public has a right to know and there's so much secrecy around this.
	Oh, my God.
	Alright, so this brings up so many interesting issues.
	You know, when I was in 8th grade, the only thing we did during recess was, if you show me yours, I'll show you mine.
	One of about 40 points that need to be made here.
	First of all, let's back up a little bit because this is impinging on or actually is about kiddie porn, which became an issue sometime in the 80s.
	And I remember in the 90s before the internet really started taking hold or before cam phones existed or the rest of it, there were stories that started to emerge about...
	A husband and wife being arrested because somebody that was printing out their photos at a Long's Drugs or someplace.
	Dude, let me just say that when Christina was very young, she was like three or whatever.
	And she used to dress up in her mom's clothes.
	And she had this really cute outfit.
	She was wearing her mom's high heels, red high heels.
	And she had Mickey Mouse ears on her head.
	She had done this herself.
	And she was wearing a little apron.
	And she was in the kitchen making something.
	And she was wearing nothing underneath.
	It was just her bare butt.
	And it's the cutest picture ever.
	I mean, it's just like completely cute.
	And Patricia took this to the, you know, back in the day, the one-hour photo developer, and the guy said, you know, ma'am, you come here all the time, so I know you, but normally I would have to report you for this.
	I'm like, what?
	What?
	Now, this happened over and over and over again.
	It was put into the public's consciousness that the picture of the baby on the bearskin rug, a tradition in America, a little baby just crawling around, their butt hanging on the bearskin rug, was somehow kiddie porn.
	And what happened, we kind of lost track of what the word porn is supposed to mean.
	A naked person is not a pornographic image.
	In the old school sense of things, when they were trying to crack down on porn, porn required some sort of sexual act.
	It had to be something.
	There had to be penetration.
	There had to be some sexual element to it, not just somebody standing around naked.
	With no artistic value, I think, is part of the definition.
	That too.
	But the point is, which was ironic because there was a bottle of Chateau Mouton Rothschild that had a stick figure drawn on it as one of their art labels.
	And there was supposed to be some 10-year-old or something like that.
	It was indecipherable.
	And they had to ban that label from the U.S. as porn.
	Now, what is porn?
	Is porn anyone who walks around naked?
	Now, this is kind of an interesting contradiction in some of the cultural things that have gone on.
	Are nudists and nudist colonies and natural...
	Is that porn?
	Is it all porn?
	Is it just a porn set?
	No, they're just weird.
	Crazy people.
	You're crazy.
	You want to be naked.
	By the way, this is very inherent to the United States of America, which, of course...
	Oh, really?
	So Patricia was getting her photos developed here in the U.S.? Yeah, that was in New Jersey when Christina was like three or four.
	Oh yeah, this was not in Europe.
	Absolutely not.
	But the crazy thing is, the best porn with the hottest people and the best pop shots are produced in America!
	Yeah, well we know that.
	But the thing I'm trying to get around to recognizing is the fact that we've redefined porn as nudity.
	Yeah, it's outrageous.
	And the fact of the matter is, this thing with the kids shooting pictures of themselves with their phones because they can, and they're in the room alone half the time, and taking a shot at somebody's breast and sending it to your boyfriend, is not porn.
	And even though it's like underage, yeah, you're underage for what?
	For sending out naked pictures of your top?
	The whole thing is something sinister about it, and I'm not absolutely sure what it is.
	But one of the things that got me about this particular episode here on O'Reilly was they made a big stink about the fact that this kid's name's not going to be revealed, and she made a point, though, don't get me wrong, I don't want him to go to jail.
	No, no, the kid needs to be made into a sex offender for porn.
	That's what they're going for here.
	Meanwhile, I don't see anybody outraged about the 14-year-old who kills somebody.
	Yeah, they bring it up if he's going to be tried as an adult, but there's a lot of crimes, theft, murder, all sorts of things that happens to underage kids that they don't make such a scene about.
	Oh, I don't understand why they're doing this in juvenile court.
	We should know.
	I don't want the kids in jail necessarily, although you do.
	I mean, the whole thing is completely blown out of proportion to humiliate these kids who are basically goofing around.
	And then this redefinition of nudity...
	Equals porn is really, really extremely oppressive and it's resulted in the same thing where the guys in some state, God knows where, taking a leak in public because he's drunk and he's peeing on a tree and now he's a sex offender.
	This is basically the way you marginalize true sex offenders.
	And you make this point all the time.
	There's a bunch of pedophiles out there and other kinds of creeps.
	And you marginalize them by making everybody a pedophile.
	By redefining everything.
	You redefine.
	Redefining is the best way to go about this thing.
	And redefining nudity as porn is what they've done.
	And they've done it very well.
	And most people would say that's why they're all freaked out.
	Your kid can't even wear, you know, you can't take a picture of your own kid.
	Your own kid.
	You can't take a picture of your own kid on a bare skin rug.
	So, the reason why this is happening, John, and yes, I will get into my theory, is because the upper echelons of the elite, particularly in the judicial system, over the years, the true pedophiles have collected there, have aggregated there, and I have four links in the show notes today, By coincidence, I guess.
	What you will not hear on Bill O'Reilly is the story of thousands of girls and boys who were raped and tortured and murdered in Canada's Aboriginal boarding schools up until 1985.
	Where the Christian churches ran 100 boarding schools for Aboriginal children.
	Link to this story in the show notes at noagendashow.com.
	What you will not hear is about the Dutch girl Millie, who was found dead in her, this is near Rotterdam, dead in her garden.
	A cop lived next door, and he was arrested.
	A cop.
	And of course you won't hear anything else about it.
	Or the BBC, as they're reporting today, about...
	Oh, this one really takes the cake.
	There's actually some audio that goes with this if you want to take the little sidetrack.
	There was some parents who found out that a teacher sexually molested their son...
	They then went to the teacher, this happened a couple years ago, and said, you know what?
	You're going to pay for this, and instead of taking you to court or reporting you, you're going to pay us.
	The guy wound up paying 18,000 pounds to the boy's parents.
	But then the boy, of course, as he's older, he pops out.
	Eventually this comes to light.
	The teacher is taken to court, and he's let off!
	With a slap on the wrist, the judge literally says, the judge, remember, part of the justice system, literally says, well, he's already been punished enough.
	He had to pay the 18,000 pounds.
	Instead of sending this guy to jail, instead of sending him to jail for engaging in sexual activity, actual child pornography, pedophilia, with a 13-year-old kid.
	Here's some audio from BBC. We're flabbergasted.
	I tell you, you...
	It goes beyond belief.
	And the judge...
	My wife is a social worker, and it's normally social workers that get lambasted when there are cases of abuse that come to light.
	And there are many.
	At NAPAC, we get 1,000 calls a week from survivors.
	But nobody seems to have a go at judges.
	And yet this judge, in this case, has let a man walk free...
	Who sexually abused a child on many occasions.
	Other children will still be at risk from this man.
	And some of the terminology, some of the language that the judge used, I just find incomprehensible.
	Stuff like troublesome, you know.
	It was a troublesome case.
	Clearly the parents are troublesome.
	They should never have accepted money in lieu of reporting the offence to the police.
	And I think the least the judge could have done Would be to award that sum of money to the child, put it in trust for the child, because he's going to have a troublesome life in future if he doesn't get a lot of help for the abuse that he suffered.
	And another thing that the judge said, and lots of judges do say this, Gabby, is that the perpetrator interfered with the child.
	You know, interfered.
	What a mealy-mouthed description of sexually assaulting a four-year-old child.
	And this is exactly why I continue to say that words really matter.
	When judges say this, like, interfered with a child, I mean, this guy is spot on.
	And you can listen to that whole interview.
	It's linked in the show notes under the Elite section.
	But I am convinced, convinced that this has been building and they're all blackmailing each other.
	And John, probably, I think this is the track that you're on to, the only, you know, by now they're all giving each other up.
	And by the way, Child Protective Services, the worst.
	The worst.
	If your kid gets into that system, forget about it.
	Churches, you know, everywhere, these priests, oh yeah, well they molested these boys, but they're not going to jail.
	Oh no, the Pope will write a letter.
	Thank you Pope for writing the letter.
	I feel much better now.
	And the only way for them to cover up this huge crap that is going on, and we've talked about this almost consistently with all these different examples for the past months, Is indeed to marginalize everything.
	Make everyone a potential sex offender and they can keep on their jolly old way.
	Right, and redefinitions, of course.
	So we have everybody scared to death and hypersensitive about taking a picture of your own child on a bare skin rug.
	So, anyway...
	Do I get to play these porn clips now?
	Well, this is kind of a real news.
	If you want to do real news...
	And now, back to Real News.
	I, uh...
	You're going to give me crap when I tell you this, but...
	Well, listen, so John's clips show up this morning, and the two clips, one is labeled Porn 1, and the other one is Prawn 2, which could either be a misspelling or purpose, I'm not quite sure, and so I'm excited.
	I'm ready.
	I'm a huge fan of porn.
	My first professional gig was overdubbing a porn movie called Hot Pursuit.
	It received the Fully Erect Penis Award from Hustler Magazine.
	I did the voice of the lead character.
	I own porn.
	I own subscriptions to porn sites.
	I love porn.
	Well, that's what these two clips are about.
	Guys like you, apparently.
	Like you've never watched porn.
	I've seen porn, but I don't watch it for 10 hours a day.
	No, you only need 8 minutes.
	8 minutes.
	Well, then tell me what's wrong with these guys.
	Now, here's what you're going to give me crap about.
	Not about the porn clips, but about the fact that this is the first time I've ever seen the show real life.
	What is that show?
	Aha!
	Good.
	Thank you.
	Real Life is a reality TV show on MTV that is about...
	Oh, Real Life.
	Yeah, I know what Real Life is.
	It's about losers.
	Play Porn One.
	It's about losers.
	My name is Brandon.
	I'm from Placenta, California.
	Is there such a place as Placenta, California?
	Yeah.
	Okay, this is good.
	No, I live with my grandmother.
	And I don't have a job at the moment.
	So what's happening today?
	I'm not too sure.
	I'm looking for a job on craigslist.com right now.
	I see one ad that says, great job.
	And then I see another ad that says, you know, check it out, free porn.
	I'd rather look at porn than look at jobs.
	This is the porn?
	Porn allows me to enjoy women without having to deal with their real-life drama.
	I love watching naked women, but it's ruined many of my relationships.
	First time I saw porn, I was just a little kid.
	I got this mild euphoria.
	It's not taboo, I'm getting away with something.
	When I turned 18, I definitely got into porn a little too much.
	I look at Orin for about 5 to 10 hours a day.
	What's up, dawg?
	Same s***.
	Yeah.
	Just watch your car.
	All right.
	Okay.
	So what's the point of that?
	Well, apparently the show is about people who are addicted to porn.
	And as I listen to this, I think there's something bogus about it because I can't...
	Okay, maybe there are some guys that can look at porn for 10 hours.
	Well, if you have nothing better to do, I mean, there are people who...
	Ten hours?
	Now, wait a minute.
	I have seen enough porn to realize that the only time you'd be looking at it for a long period of time is so you can walk away from the screen and say, Who are these people?
	Ha ha ha!
	It's like there's an infinite number of naked women that show their face where there's an infinite number of guys who won't.
	So play Pronto.
	This is the other guy.
	Hey.
	Hey.
	How are you?
	Good.
	How are you?
	Good.
	I was wondering what you guys were doing tonight if you wanted me to come over later.
	Um, I guess that should work.
	Alright, I love you.
	Alright, bye.
	Bye.
	I wish he'd say I love you back.
	Aww.
	Aww.
	How sweet.
	The guy is a big...
	What?
	The guy is this mega loser like the other character.
	Oh, okay.
	So what they're saying is if you just want to love somebody and you want to be in a healthy, loving relationship and you don't watch porn, you're a loser.
	Is that it?
	That's...
	Give me that one again.
	So, if you just want to be in a loving, healthy relationship where it's not all about sex and porn and you just want to have a relationship with another person, then you're a loser.
	No, no.
	I think you got it twisted, but you're half right as...
	It's often the case in these sorts of analyses.
	Well, I'm a half-wit.
	Do you want to hear the rest of it?
	Yes, because now you have to realize that this guy used to be apparently a fairly thin guy.
	He's addicted to porn.
	He's got a kind of a weird buzz-cut haircut.
	Oh, it's the same guy?
	No, a different guy.
	The other guy's got a bunch of studs in his mouth.
	He's into the kinky shit.
	Well, he's watching porn eight hours a day.
	I don't know what he's doing with this, you know, how that accomplishes anything.
	And he lives with his grandmother.
	That's the first guy.
	This guy's like been kicked out of the house.
	He's got four kids.
	And his wife won't have anything to do with him because he's addicted to porn.
	But he's so addicted he's gone to counseling and he talks about being sober.
	In relationship to not seeing porn, which is like, can we come up with some other kinds of love?
	Well, look, John, this has nothing to do with porn.
	People get addicted to alcohol, to drugs.
	People whose lives are screwed up will sit there and scratch their arms raw for 10 hours.
	Yeah, well, let's play.
	Pick at their skin, pull their hair out.
	I mean, he has deep underlying psychological issues, which has nothing to do with the porn.
	That's my point.
	But the other thing is, is they make this porn out to be some sort of, I mean, the guy with the 10 hours lives with his grandmother.
	They're trying to do the equation of, although, believe me, like you said, eight minutes.
	It's like, who is looking at porn for five to 10 hours a day, day in and day out?
	I mean, that guy, I don't know.
	He probably doesn't have a lot of friends.
	But play the rest of this clip.
	Live in Las Vegas, Nevada.
	This is a Valentine's that Denise made for me last year.
	I keep it on my workspace to help me keep focused.
	I met my wife, Denise, while we were in high school, and we were married exactly a year and a half after we started dating.
	At that point, I was masturbating and viewing porn probably every day.
	As it came out that I was viewing pornography regularly, that I couldn't control when it happened or how frequently it happened, I just had to finally admit that I was an addict.
	I love porn because it gave me an opportunity to escape from life to a fantasy world where I was in control.
	Hey dude, how about reading a book?
	My wife and I were working through counseling.
	I've been doing so many recovery programs, but I'm still not sober.
	And six or seven months ago, she asked me to move out.
	Alright, I don't want to listen to this anymore.
	So anyway, so there's a connection here between this...
	And the pedophilia, yes.
	And the pedophilia and nudity equals porn.
	Go for it.
	Well, I don't have anything to say except that something's up.
	Well, yeah.
	Something is up.
	Something is up.
	You know what's next?
	I guarantee you, while we are still doing this show, and that could be another 10 months or 10 years, there will be a vaccine against porn addiction.
	I guarantee you there's going to be a vaccine against porn addiction.
	It's totally coming.
	But this is a modern society issue, and I think it's also a mind-control programming issue.
	There's a lot of things going on with this.
	There really is.
	But at the bottom line, I'll say, naked is beautiful.
	Look at all the grandmasters.
	You know, when Renoir or...
	Oh, name any of the grandmasters.
	Well, you know, take a look at the big stink over Michelangelo's David when they, you know, they wanted to dress him up so the school kids wouldn't see the actual sculpture.
	I mean, that's one of the things that's part of this whole, this kind of a brainwashing thing going on where nudity equals porn.
	Yeah, and it's wrong.
	When it doesn't, it's nudity.
	It's wrong.
	And by the way, I'm naked right now.
	Well, that's the way you do the show, but, you know...
	Let's thank some of the people who support our show, John, because I feel that we still have a few things to go through.
	Yeah, we do.
	Let me go over the $55.10.
	Now, this is double nickels on the dime.
	Somebody wants to explain.
	Double nickels on the dime.
	A nickel is five cents, or the number five in American parlance, and a dime is ten cents.
	And so $55.10 is double nickels on the dime for you Europeans out there.
	So I'm just going to read all the Double Nickels on the Dime guys that Eric sent me a spreadsheet for No Agenda 183 for the Minutemen for that show.
	And I'm just going to read them off, and we'll go to some comments afterwards.
	Tom Bushy, St.
	Paul, Minnesota.
	Eric Braley.
	Paulsbo, Washington.
	Beautiful little town.
	If anybody's in the neighborhood of Paulsbo, make sure to take a drive downtown.
	Robert Pinder.
	Madison, Virginia.
	Pearl Mack.
	You're supposed to say Netrunner, but okay.
	Never mind.
	Keep going.
	Pearl Mack, Markham, Ontario, Canada.
	Nelson Ferreira, New Rochelle, New York.
	Wayne Bronikowski, Highlands Ranch, Colorado.
	We do have a German.
	Hans-Jörg Schultz from Bad Doberen in Deutschland, which is probably a nice little town, because anything with a bod in front of it means it was a bath or a resort town.
	Carl Bufa, Overland Park, Kansas.
	Richard Johnson, Spring Hill, Florida.
	Jason Laskowski, Salina, Kansas.
	David Jondrew, Victoria, B.C.
	Matthew Mongen, Hampstead, Maryland.
	Jason Fenwick, Arlington, Virginia.
	John Martinez, Gilroy, California.
	Keith Sarlous, Seal Beach, California.
	Justin Bach, Lafayette, Louisiana.
	Matthew Schauer.
	You know, Keith had a whole note.
	Do we want to talk about that?
	I don't have it on the spreadsheet.
	Okay.
	Matthew Schauer, Winthrop, Minnesota.
	Sean McGrath, Jersey City.
	Stephen Homer, Crook, Durham, UK. Vivian Hingsburg, Burlington, Ontario.
	Chris Engler, Milton, Ontario.
	Thomas Schaefer, Oswego, New York.
	Paul Love, Mechanicsville, Virginia.
	Bruce Martin, Mount Juliet.
	We're going to have our full contingent of green patches done here before we're done.
	It's going to be completely done, yeah.
	Matthew Schauer, Winthrop, Minnesota.
	Sean McGrath, Jersey City, did that one.
	Steven Horner, Crook Durham, I just did that one, Vivian Hong, I'm trying to catch up, Chris Engler, Thomas Schaefer, Oswego, Paul Love, Mechanicsville, Bruce Martin, Mount Juliet, Tennessee, Patrick Schaumer, Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, Michael Mayatico, Milton, Ontario.
	Robert Gold, Toronto.
	Todd Webster, Fort Worth.
	Where all the real money is in Texas, by the way.
	Sean Brady, Plattsburgh, Missouri.
	Scott Waldherr, Minnesota.
	Minneapolis.
	Scott Bodiford, Spanish Fort.
	We did him already.
	I think he did last week.
	Brian Rowley, Chantilly, Virginia.
	So that's our little group of Minutemen.
	Who donated double nickels on the dime?
	And I'll...
	Let's see.
	We've got one here from...
	And this was Keith Sarlos.
	Sarlos or Sarlos?
	S-A-A-R-L-O-O-S. Apparently...
	He's become a minute man for the No Agenda Militia on behalf of his family wine company, Sarlousandsons.com, and he would like to do his part in raising money for support of No Agenda by donating 5% of any wine purchased from Sarlousandsons.com when other obedient servants mention No Agenda in the purchase notes.
	Now you're talking.
	And he's also hooked up with Supervising Knight Sterling Ellsworth in Santa Barbara.
	So there's connections going on here, which are really good.
	I would like to welcome Bubba back to the fold.
	Bubba's been out for a bit, and he's back on the cage match at Dvorak.org and contributing to the show in every way he can.
	That's highly appreciated.
	And let me get a few more of these out of the way.
	We have another 5510 from Justin...
	And it's pronounced Bakay, Lafayette, Louisiana.
	And if we need sausages, he's our man.
	And here's an interesting donation of $50.50 from Heather Bean in Groton, Connecticut.
	This is the first, by the way.
	This is a first.
	She wants to call out her boyfriend...
	Jeff Glennon as a loser.
	I'm a lady so I don't use the douche word.
	Douchebag!
	She says he loves the show and he got her hooked and never donated.
	That's horrible!
	Before you know it, he'll be watching porn 10 hours a day.
	Donating to No Agenda helps your porn addiction.
	Jifee Yang, $99.99.
	John Martinez, we got him.
	We also mentioned our...
	We got a couple of night letterways that came in.
	Larry Corpy and John Petrucci.
	And let's see what kind of notes we got.
	What was that one note you said that somebody sent us?
	Oh, by the way, we did have another person going on $77.77, Seth Mooney in Brooklyn, and he wants to call out his friends Perkins and Walker as douchebags.
	We're not donating.
	Tom Humer, H-U-E-M-M-E-R, who always gives weird amounts of money, $88.43, loves the show.
	I've been listening since episode four.
	My donation is $55.10, so he wants to be on that list.
	It's 3333, which is an attempt to find some kind of job karma to my girlfriend, who's been having a hard time finding a job, keeping up the good work.
	Yeah, I'd just like to say something about that, because what we have noticed is that there is a lot of karma when you're looking for...
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs!
	Yay!
	Now, so I'm getting people saying, well, if I donate $500, I'm getting...
	No, no, no.
	The way it appears to work...
	Is either you take a lucky number, like a $30 or a $33, or you sign up for the $5 a month, which it's still a lot of money for people who have no income, It's weird, but we have scores of examples of people.
	The minute they donate, they get a job, they come back, they donate a whole bunch and really support the show.
	Long essay on how that works or why it works.
	There's something magical about it.
	I hate to say it.
	It's something magical.
	So let's go on.
	We've got a few donations.
	They're all 50 bucks.
	It's amazing.
	Greg Pollard of Madison, Alabama, just turned 33.
	He's hoping this donation will make this year the luckiest year of my life.
	But he's also calling out George Titsworth.
	Yes, that's his real name.
	No matter what he did.
	Just for the name alone.
	Just for the name alone.
	Lawrence Froncheck from Danville, California, $50.
	By the way, Pollard's from Alabama.
	Richard, we got him.
	We're going to get past the 55 tens.
	Here's a...
	Oh, Armin...
	That's it.
	We're done.
	I'm sorry, I just fell into last week's show.
	That's it.
	Oh, I got one Japanese guy that showed up.
	Here it is.
	Toshi Harada in Tokyo sent us $56.70, and he listens to the show in Tokyo.
	Nice.
	Oh, and finally, Keith Bradshaw, I don't want to leave him out, in Statesville, North Carolina, gave us $100.
	Okay, so it's really nice that we've got a lot of these 5510s, but we're missing bigger donations, clearly.
	And I'm a little disappointed.
	We have a lot of 5510s, though.
	So once we fill them up, we're going to close that and move to the next badge or something.
	But two nickels on the dime.
	You know, these are Minutemen.
	These people have to realize they've taken on a responsibility.
	Yeah, yeah.
	You get a patch, and you also actually have to come to our aid whenever, you know, it's deemed necessary within a minute.
	Like 60 seconds.
	Like the police.
	All right.
	Hey, let's do our knighthoods.
	Yes.
	Let me get back to the right page here.
	John, real professional there Well, it's using the spreadsheet.
	I have to go through these things like one at a time to find the right thing.
	I'm going to have to come up with another solution to this.
	This is like...
	Yeah.
	Will it involve hiring more of your family?
	Let me get the guy down here somewhere.
	I had it a minute ago.
	I can do something else while you're doing all that.
	Yeah, why don't you read something?
	Tell it where people can donate.
	Well, yeah.
	You can call it a donation.
	I call it support.
	Because we don't take any advertisement on this show.
	If you're new to No Agenda, you're wondering, oh, what are these guys doing?
	So this takes a lot of time.
	We're spending a lot of time.
	Notice the word spend.
	So it's actual effort that goes into creating this program.
	We're doing about five hours a week now.
	Which is kind of...
	We've almost really created the third show for you by definition, but I'd still like to see us actually go there.
	Tomorrow I crank up the daily source code for the sustaining NoAgendaStream.com producers.
	And compared to...
	Our national treasure, which is, as an example, NPR, National Public Radio, who pretend like it's coming from donors like you, but are actually taking advertisements, actual real advertisements and sponsorships, so they can't pull apart the media the way we do.
	There's no way for them to touch certain topics from companies like Monsanto, GE, Archer Daniel Midlands, and here's proof.
	Okay, moving on to money.
	How are NPR's corporate underwriting revenues holding up in the recession?
	And what about foundation grants?
	Two different stories.
	Underwriting is down.
	It's down for everybody.
	Okay, move it on to money.
	Underwriting is down.
	It's down for everybody.
	I mean, this is the area that is most down for us, is in sponsorship, underwriting, advertising, call it whatever you want.
	Yeah, call it whatever you want.
	Let's just call it advertising.
	Because you're done.
	You're toast.
	You're not a national treasure.
	You're completely part of the system.
	And we're not.
	So we'll be announcing our night on Sunday.
	Okay.
	We actually have two.
	Okay.
	Well, that's good.
	It's better to do the nights on Sunday, I guess.
	I got a note here from...
	There's a couple things I want to talk about.
	One was regarding the uniforms...
	That we've been harping on.
	Petraeus, McChrystal, these guys are all decked out in all of their garb.
	And so we've been saying, you know, what is going on with this?
	All these symbols, you know, they're trying to impress us.
	What does this mean?
	And I got a note from Specialist Snipes, Specialist Christopher Snipes, I guess, from the U.S. Army, who says the following in the morning, Adam and John.
	General Petraeus is the Central Commanding General.
	He oversees all military operations in Central Asia.
	In regard to your comments about his Class A uniform...
	His appearance in that uniform is in accordance with Army Regulation 670-1.
	I've attached the regulation for your review, which, by the way, oh my God!
	I mean, it even tells you how to wear your mustache if you have one.
	It's an amazing document.
	Please do not make ignorant statements about the Army uniform unless you are accurately informed.
	The awards, badges, tabs, and decorations are not garbage or stickers or anything to joke about.
	They are awarded for actions in combat, unit actions, military schools attended, etc.
	Sorry, I'm bummed that you said etc.
	Because some of the stuff, some of the etc.
	stuff is pretty lame.
	Some of those schools are so difficult, only 30% are able to complete the training.
	Please do not denigrate the uniform of our army by likening them to clowns or third world dictators.
	And please to make just about one of his awards...
	And pleased to make just about one of his awards for being a douchebag.
	Did we do that?
	He should have a douchebag award.
	Regardless of what you think, you know about our missions in Iraq and Afghanistan, there are many young men and women dying in defense of our nation.
	Those men and women are there because they are following the lawful orders of a democratically elected president.
	Love the show.
	Listen all the time.
	As I've stated before, once I'm promoted, you'll be receiving a donation for your hokers and blow.
	So let me say something about this note.
	First of all, and I speak on John's behalf, we have nothing but high regard for the men and women who serve this country.
	We thank them for their service.
	We appreciate it.
	We feel horrible That you're being sent off to an illegal war, not to fight for the protection of our country, but to fight for the New World Order, and you're effectively slaves of the New World Order, and guys like Petraeus and McChrystal are at the top of the frickin' pyramid, and they are horrible.
	It's horrible to send our young men and women, our boys and girls, out to die in deserts where they have no business being.
	Now let me correct you.
	They are not following the lawful orders of a democratically elected president.
	A war may only be declared by Congress, and that has not happened for either Iraq or Afghanistan.
	These are illegal wars, and you should not believe that they are following lawful orders of a democratically elected president.
	That is factually incorrect, and you should...
	Protest, lay down your arms, and quit that shit!
	How do you really feel?
	I feel horrible that...
	This mind control has passed on to these very brave men and women that they believe they are following the quote lawful orders of a democratically elected president.
	The president may not send you to war.
	He may not send you.
	Congress may send you as elected by the people of the nation.
	They did not sign a declaration of war for Iraq or Afghanistan.
	It did not happen.
	It is an illegal war.
	You are there for poppies No, I would suggest that he reads the Constitution.
	And it makes me feel even worse when I read that suicides are fourfold in the armed services.
	Abuse of pain medication up tenfold.
	Because you know it's wrong.
	You are so loyal to your country, but you know something is wrong.
	You're being fucked!
	So that's noagendashow.com, dvorak.org slash N-A. Can I use your jingle for a second?
	I really need it.
	Hit it.
	My whole family is government issue.
	I go to my family reunion, you know, the people in my family, they got fruit salad on, they wear their uniforms, they're proud of it.
	But they don't go on television to promote some bullshit wearing all their fancy little class A symbols.
	Because they know what's really going on.
	Sometimes they don't even because they've been compartmentalized.
	When do I get to do a pet peeve?
	When you have something you're really pissed off about.
	It angers me because of course I have nothing but respect.
	There's lots of cops.
	There's lots of sheriffs who are really seriously out there to help you.
	And to help the citizens.
	You know, you can't generalize and say they're all horrible.
	And the worst thing is, is all the real money, the people who are getting paid, all these freaking consultants like Blackwater and Zeke, who are taking the money, actually I believe our servicemen and women deserve.
	They're taking the money.
	They're the ones that are really cleaning up with all of this.
	You're being screwed.
	Absolutely screwed and it pisses me off because I do come from a service family.
	A serious one.
	Yes, you do.
	So anyway...
	So I will continue to joke about this clown with his symbolism trying to make me feel important about the bullshit he's propagating.
	Well, I am not a big fan of either Petraeus or McChrystal.
	And...
	And this outfit they wear is...
	Let me give you an example.
	CNN, part of the entire setup and system, what did they release yesterday?
	Oh!
	We have an audio tape, which by the way we don't have a copy of, nor do we link to it, which comes from, apparently, supposedly, allegedly, American-born Muslim cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, Who of course is now deemed as the true mastermind behind 9-11.
	And oh!
	Osama Bin Laden?
	Oh, we'll never find him.
	Who said that just the other day?
	I think he said that all along.
	No, no, no.
	It was...
	Here, Eric Holder.
	Listen to Eric Holder.
	He says he will never be captured alive.
	Because they know he's dead.
	Listen to it.
	This is crazy.
	I think there's...
	Either that or he's living in Chicago.
	Attorney General Eric Holder told Congress that Osama bin Laden will never face trial in the United States because he will not be captured alive.
	In testi exchanges with House Republicans, the Attorney General compared bin Laden to mass murderer Charles Manson and predicted that events would ensure, quote, we will be reading Miranda rights to the corpse of Osama bin Laden, not to the al-Qaeda leader as a captive.
	I mean, that's just basically admitting the guy is dead!
	He's been dead since 2002.
	Everyone knows it.
	He died of kidney failure.
	So, uh...
	Okay.
	Hold on a second, John.
	My microphone is falling down.
	I have to repair the mic.
	You mean the mic or the mic stand?
	Yeah, the mic stand.
	So anyway, everybody out there, we go a couple more weeks of 5510 and then we're going to go back to something else.
	But dvorak.org slash NA or channeldvorak.com slash NA and we will do our nighting.
	Yeah, noagendashow.com.
	Those are canned and others.
	Hey, and are we doing this email list?
	You sent me some code, right?
	Hello?
	Yeah?
	Are we doing the email list now?
	Yeah, yeah, we have to get this email list going.
	So I'll send you some code.
	It'll be at the bottom of the page.
	It's a JavaScript.
	Is that Glenn Beck?
	So it's some JavaScript.
	We want people to get on this mailing list so we can put the show notes in a more format.
	I'm sorry.
	This is my whole setup fell apart.
	I was so angry during my pet peeve that the microphone stand literally collapsed.
	This is bad news.
	Okay, so that means you can sign up for our show notes email.
	Free sign up.
	Cost you nothing.
	And because our show notes are just so long, it's even blowing up iTunes, we're not going to provide all of the show notes.
	Only the topics discussed on the show will be in the show notes, and then you can sign up for the free email in which you will receive.
	After every program, you'll receive the full show notes as intended and, of course, all the stuff we didn't get to.
	But there are some things that we will get to, such as, and I just love this because the punchline is in the...
	It's in the last paragraph.
	You probably heard about the $75 million worth of drugs stolen from an Eli Lilly warehouse in Connecticut over the weekend.
	John?
	No.
	Really?
	No.
	I was too busy following up on some other project.
	Ah, okay.
	So, this is from the Wall Street Journal.
	The thieves disabled the interior alarm system, went through a hole in the roof, and they stole a whole bunch of antidepressants and antipsychotic drugs worth wholesale $75 million.
	Wow.
	Now, that, of course, is the big bullshit because it's just a bunch of chemical pills compressed.
	Yeah.
	It's bullcrap.
	It's worth a street price.
	No, it's wholesale.
	Eli Lilly's spokesman says that's wholesale.
	No.
	So the street price might be twice that.
	That sounds like an insurance deal to me.
	Totally.
	So there's a couple things that's interesting about this.
	One is, the drugs have now gotten so expensive and so outrageous that they are becoming more valuable to gangs, and I will just say the mafia, than the drugs we're used to, like coke and heroin.
	This is now the real drug, and people are willing to go and steal it And it's drugs.
	It's like psychotic drugs.
	It's not like they're going to solve your problems.
	It's going to make you high.
	And here you go.
	The major pharmaceutical theft rings in the U.S. are in, can you guess, the three places, John?
	Four places?
	Well, they'd probably be like, you'd have Florida, New York, Chicago.
	Exactly.
	It's where the mob is.
	South Florida, New York, New Jersey.
	It's like, yeah, duh, this is the mob.
	This is, of course...
	The drug situation has become out of control.
	Well, luckily for Eli Lilly, it only costs two cents to make all those bills at once.
	All of it.
	All of it.
	It's nuts.
	We were talking about drugging kids at the office.
	Do you know Bryn, who is now 38?
	He's one of our engineers.
	Do you know that he was a hyperactive kid, which you can totally see, right?
	And, of course, I was joking.
	I said, oh, well, back in the day, you would have been...
	If you were that way, if you were younger, you would have been deemed...
	You would have had ADHD, and you would have been prescribed Ritalin.
	He said, oh, no.
	They tried to put me on Ritalin then.
	The guy's 38.
	This is how long this has been going on.
	They're drugging our kids.
	Really?
	He's 38 and they tried to get...
	His mom said, no way.
	You're not putting that in my kid.
	No freaking way.
	You have a hyperactive kid live with it.
	The nice little ditty here.
	Apparently, it's listed as the gun.
	I thought he had two.
	I thought he had two.
	You're talking about the Pentagon shooter?
	Yeah, yeah.
	But two guns used in high-profile shootings this year, the Pentagon shooting and another one in a Las Vegas courthouse, both came from Memphis, Tennessee and were sold by the cops who had seized them in criminal cases in Memphis.
	Yeah, I heard that story too.
	Supposedly, some jurisdictions, they confiscate guns and then they sell them as a profit center because everybody needs tax money or some income.
	And Tennessee, I guess, is one of these areas.
	And of course, it's places like San Jose.
	They crush it under a...
	I always thought they turned it into manhole covers.
	That's what I was brought up believing.
	Yeah, what a crock that is.
	Well, this is exactly what's happening to a lot of people who listen to this show.
	They learn to look at the world in a little different light and not believe everything you were told.
	Yeah, well, I think today's big lesson was the sweetening of the Bill Maher's soundtrack is pretty revealing.
	It's...
	Yeah, I don't know.
	So we got material.
	I got a whole bunch of stuff on this religion, or I'm sorry, a charity that I wanted to talk about.
	Yeah, let's do that to wrap it up, and then...
	Well, no, we're not going to do that.
	Let's just do a teaser, and we can talk about it on Sunday or later.
	Well, can we talk about the, this kind of ties into the kids, the recess coaches?
	Yeah.
	Because that really outraged me when I heard about that.
	Do you have that article in front of you, or a link to it?
	Probably not.
	Yeah, somewhere.
	No, I haven't.
	I can set it up and you can take it from there.
	How does that sound?
	Okay.
	So this article is from the New York Times and it talks about a number of schools.
	These are public schools.
	I don't know if they're charter schools yet, which is a whole other thing, John.
	We've got to get into that.
	Oh, there's so much bull crap going on with charter schools.
	And we have a lot of teachers listening, and they're sending us a lot of good information, so we're forming our opinion, not just the crap you read in the mainstream media.
	And so there's this charity which recently changed its name from Playtime to Play for School or something.
	John, you'll find that.
	We'll put it in the show notes.
	And they essentially place...
	Recess coaches at schools and the recess coach who has a whistle so the slaves can know when it's time to pay attention Kids are effectively no longer allowed to just go around and hang out and look at each other's private parts and beat each other up and dream or walk around or stand on their head or anything you need to do as a developing human being.
	No.
	Now they have structured games, and the recess coach makes the kids do these games and perform these tricks and behaviors, as I'd say in SeaWorld, during recess.
	So recess has now been hijacked by the elitist New World Order to train the slaves with a whistle to do games instead of what kids need.
	The definition of recess is like you get to go fuck off.
	Yeah, it's recess.
	Well, let's listen to the woman who runs that organization that has the coaches placed all over the place.
	She is one of many 2,500 fellows in this worldwide organization called Ashoka.
	Which we'll get into in more details because it seems to be something.
	I'm not warming up to this operation, let's put it that way.
	And there's an interesting point that this woman makes.
	Now, one of the things when you listen to anybody from a show could talk, and I have a whole bunch of different clips that we'll play next Sunday.
	There's a disjointedness to their conversation, which indicates to me that they've either gone through something like a life spring or something, God knows what.
	But there's a disjointedness to the conversation and the way they put words together and there's a neuro-linguistic aspect where they just drop words in, especially the guy who runs the operation.
	He'll just drop a word into a sentence structure that makes no sense.
	But the basic craziness of this recess, Coach, is kind of exhibited here, and we want to deconstruct this, and it'll lead to more deconstruction.
	Oh, it's going to lead to all kinds of nastiness, because this is exactly...
	Look, school is set up to make your kids dumb, and now they're setting it up to control your kids, to control them, like little slaves and animals who respond to a whistle.
	Now, the woman starts off...
	I have her name somewhere.
	I'm going to have to dig it up.
	I'm sorry.
	It's Ashoka.
	Ashoka is the name of the operation.
	The leader of this recess hijacking operation is all for human play, and she thinks people should be playing, but they need to be more coordinated, for some reason unknown.
	And she talks about the way it normally would be in a school setting and in a recess period and how they're going to fix it because, well, I guess they don't like what they're doing, but play the homophobic remark clip.
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	I had the wrong one queued up.
	Yeah, homophobic remark.
	Here comes.
	You spend an hour out at lunchtime in the average public elementary school and you will hear every slur, every...and you will witness kids just wrestling with those issues in a very open and tangible way.
	I mean, that's what they're doing.
	I mean, that's a huge part of what it's about, is you're figuring out how the world works.
	And that's what PSJA wrote all the stuff about.
	That's what's going on there.
	There's this great way of thinking about...
	About play, the idea that we don't play because we're young, but rather we have a period of youth so that we can play.
	It's that developmentally important.
	And so what we do with our staff is we talk about making a yard safe, making a schoolyard safe.
	What's involved with that?
	Making a schoolyard safe.
	It has to be safe.
	No!
	You're supposed to get into fights.
	You're supposed to get beaten up.
	You're supposed to, like, cheer on one side or the other.
	You're supposed to go show your private parts to some other kid.
	This is a part of growing up.
	You're supposed to argue.
	I'm just bringing it back.
	You're supposed to be walking backwards and twirling around and looking at clouds.
	Stop.
	So here's the deal.
	So if you remember her early commentary was, first she says all these kids have these slurs and they're nasty to each other, and then she says this is what play is about.
	So she actually predefines what play is about, and she does say play is good.
	Then how does she go from that to what she's about to say?
	Is that the same clip?
	Yeah.
	And we talk about different ways to resolve conflict.
	We talk about the smooth over.
	And sometimes, you know, the smooth over is really okay.
	But by and large, what we're asking our staff and what we really want our staff to do is if they hear a kid make a homophobic remark, one kid calls another kid a faggot, We want our staff person to do the totally counterintuitive thing and not pretend you didn't hear it and walk away and avoid that, but to turn towards it and really make the kids talk about it.
	And we go through all sorts of procedures.
	We bring in folks who have more expertise in different areas.
	We've worked a lot at that.
	So here's what you have.
	You have a bunch of goofball kids on their recess, and then somebody overhears something they don't like, and then they go over there, and then they make the kids talk about it, ruining the recess, obviously, and the kids won't say anything anymore.
	Do you know what a faggot is, Tommy?
	Do you know what that means?
	It stands for fag, which is homosexual.
	Do you know what a homosexual is, Timmy?
	And so what you end up with is a bunch of kids, because of this kind of onerous situation, becoming very circumspect and not playing at all, but worrying about big brother.
	This is essentially a training mechanism to get the big brother notion into every part of our lives, including recess.
	And this operation is part of a bigger group.
	And by the way, when they talk, when a Shoka guy talks, let me just play this one clip.
	And this will give you an idea.
	This is from another operation where they create these little messages.
	And this is, you'll hear the beginning of it, which is the intro.
	And then you hear the message from the leader.
	Which clip?
	This is a weird empathy bit.
	Okay.
	Hit it.
	Hit it.
	They are pioneers of innovation that benefit humanity.
	A single group of leading social entrepreneur Ashoka Fellows focuses on children and young people.
	Maybe 450 out of the 2,400 altogether.
	What really matters is whether or not children master applied empathy.
	Give me the definition of empathy, please.
	That means you can see things from somebody else's perspective.
	And whether young people, 12 to 20, master empathy, teamwork, leadership, and hit adulthood already knowing that That they are changemakers because they've already been changemakers.
	They've already been powerful.
	They've started a tutoring service, a teen-to-teen confidential hotline in the afternoon, a virtual radio station.
	It doesn't matter.
	Every child must master Applied Empathy or they are going to be marginalized.
	If you weren't given the tools...
	Oh, we need some tools!
	We need some tools!
	Applied Empathy as a young child...
	Which is inexcusable.
	If that didn't happen, we shouldn't be blaming you.
	We should be blaming us.
	Now that really makes me angry because we're doing that.
	Maybe 25-30% of the world's people are marginalized because we failed to do something so simple.
	We have to have a revolution analogous to the civil rights movement or the women's movement.
	So that all young people, not just the children of the few fortunate families who go to the best schools that actually encourage this, but everyone grasps empathy, practices it, and then practices empathy, teamwork, leadership.
	This is the most fundamental revolution that we have to get through.
	Global X is also on Social Edge at socialedge.org.
	New world border shutter slaves.
	So that guy is the head of Ashoka.
	He is Bill Drayton from Arlington, Virginia.
	Where all the spooks are from.
	And this operation, which is huge by the way, this woman who does the playground thing, she became a fellow with this group.
	By the way, Jimmy Wales is one too.
	Oh, really?
	Oh, yeah.
	Makes total sense.
	Well, that way you can control the Wikipedia.
	That's why the Wikipedia has no anti-global warming stuff in it.
	You put anything in the Wikipedia about skepticism about global warming, it is out within 10 minutes.
	And go try it.
	Anyone out there, try it.
	See how far you get.
	10 minutes.
	So anyway, the funding of this George Soros' boys?
	Oh, of course.
	Companies like Bain and Company is somehow linked.
	Oh, really?
	Yeah, you've heard about them and the Geekonomic Hitmen.
	It's a very interesting operation.
	They got millions and millions and millions of dollars.
	The woman who runs this operation out of Berkeley that we heard from earlier talking to the homophobic kids, she got a grant for $4.5 million to work on...
	Dude, we're begging for double nickels on the dime and she's getting $4.5 million to mind control the kids.
	We're trying to actually save them here.
	What's going on?
	The world is crazy.
	$4.8 million, actually, now that I think about it.
	Anyway, it's very interesting.
	And if you want to hear a good example, we should have time for one more clip.
	I've got a bunch of them, by the way.
	You know that guy we just heard?
	He was probably beat up at recess and called a faggot.
	That's probably the whole problem.
	Well, he's a very weird character.
	He's very slow talking.
	He's got a lot of neuro-linguistic tricks.
	He talks and throws in words out of the blue, and it's very interesting to listen to him and try to analyze him.
	But you might want to, let's see which one I have here.
	I have the Ashoka at Google, Ashoka film pitch.
	Well, play the film pitch while I try to figure out what the other one is.
	This is the pitch that the company uses to promote themselves.
	To identify extraordinary natural leaders who are emerging worldwide, Ashoka has built a rigorous five step selection process.
	Is this a guy British?
	Well, the guy that Drayton isn't.
	I don't know who this guy is.
	This guy is a douchebag.
	...process that in itself helps candidates hone their organizational vision.
	As Lee Hamilton said, Ashoka invented, refined, and globally implemented a highly rigorous adaptation of business venture capital methods that finds and helps launch the best new social entrepreneurs and their ideas and institutions.
	60% of those it selects change nationally.
	This sounds like Nazi propaganda.
	I swear to God.
	I swear to God.
	Listen to it.
	It's like, we will find the Aryan race, the best ones.
	We're social entrepreneurs.
	We'll bring them to the forefront and we will rule the world.
	Now back it up.
	...and helps launch the best new social entrepreneurs and their ideas and institutions.
	Sixty percent of those it selects change national policy within five years.
	What we're looking for first, very simply put, is this idea together with this person Going to change the pattern in their field, education, human rights, whatever, on a roughly continental scale.
	Ashoka's real power is that it is a many-faceted community.
	It enables these ideas and changemakers to weave together, to do far more together than they could alone.
	This community without borders is also building business society bridges that will have extraordinary impact.
	As community grows, change accelerates.
	Oh, my goodness.
	Oh, man.
	That's really rough.
	We're going about this all wrong, John.
	We are trying to teach people something.
	We're trying to help people transform their lives and the lives of their families and their children and their spouses and helping them understand.
	And these guys are just rolling out all the mind control.
	I would like to know, you know, they always say they're going to do this to change public policy, but who's determining what is good and bad public policy?
	Now, I don't know this for a fact, but I do know that the woman, the Berkeley woman, used the word the training, which indicates to me some sort of one of those.
	You know, like Est, Life Springs, they all stem from Mind Dynamics.
	And one of the things that these kinds of...
	And they go through, I guess, a lot of seminars.
	But one of these things, one of these types of environments, these Mind Dynamics type of environments, in the early stages, is very confusing to the brain.
	It shorts people out.
	And so they can't actually...
	Think in terms of linear constructs.
	So when they speak, it's just a mishmash of sentences and concepts and words that sometimes it's almost ludicrous to listen to.
	And a good example was this guy Drayton went to Google, because Google's got some guy over there who's a big fan of this thing.
	And he went to Google and he gave his little speech.
	That's where they played that movie.
	And then one of his first world women that ever did anything is this girl that they brought out who's going to China to help somehow fix their legal system.
	I can play him introducing her, which is interesting enough, but let's just play her, the piece of her little discussion, and listen to the disorganized mess of sentences that she throws together that have no continuity, and we'll talk about this more in the future, but just listen to this, Changemakers, Google Girl.
	A hard thing.
	What should we do?
	Well, one of the things that we do in China right now is we bring together these changemakers, these social entrepreneurs who are...
	This whole social entrepreneurs is freaking me out.
	Is that like Mark Zuckerberg or what is that?
	What defines a social entrepreneur?
	Well, you start this from the beginning again because you can't get the full impact.
	But the social entrepreneur is...
	Is essentially what they've done is they've found people who, instead of starting a company as an entrepreneur that would start like a software company and then go to a venture capital guy and get funded and then go make it into an operation that actually makes money.
	These are people that are in the, let's say, the do-gooder business or they're in the charity business or they're in some sort of a...
	Oh, you mean they're going to be in government eventually?
	There are NGOs, and many of them will probably never be in government because there's more money to be made doing this.
	There are non-governmental organizations of one sort that have some sort of a program, like the recess program, that can be blown out in a big way around the world to get some sort of message across or to help implement some, I think this is all about one world government, And another attempt to ruin or take the United States' sovereignty away at some point.
	That's what this is really all about.
	And that's why Soros and the rest of the people that are throwing money at this thing are so high on it.
	But there is some sort of a, some sinister aspect to it.
	I can put my finger on it.
	But just listening to this woman try to communicate and the way she, just play it from scratch.
	A hard thing.
	What should we do?
	Well, one of the things that we do in China right now is we bring together these changemakers, these social entrepreneurs who are criminal defense lawyers, into groups of a hundred.
	And they share their stories, work together, and also look at the laws.
	Many of them have at times said to us, you know, this is important.
	But what's also important is that we're able to come together as a community.
	So one poem, which I'd like to share with you, which we always read there, is this one.
	It is, Take courage, friends.
	The road is often long, the stakes are very high, and the path is never clear.
	But deep down, there is another truth.
	You are not alone.
	Now let's all hold hands and share a secret.
	Exactly.
	You know, the funny thing is that she's going on about these...
	Why don't we let these kids, you know, like read Yates or study Shakespeare, who, by the way, was a great guy.
	He was an early pornographer.
	Why don't we have them do that?
	What's this change-maker crap?
	Well, the changemakers are out there, and I've talked to a number of people about this.
	This is, by the way, a huge operation.
	Nobody has heard anything.
	They keep a real low profile.
	Meanwhile, they're indoctrinating our kids on the playground.
	Yeah.
	But it's for good.
	It's for good, Adam.
	Let me read a poem.
	I'll let you read the poem in a moment.
	I don't have a poem.
	It doesn't even rhyme.
	Everybody who has a kid who is a listener slash producer of No Agenda, ask your kid if they have recess coaches.
	Let's find out.
	Let's find out if this is really rampant.
	If this has really taken off.
	We need to know.
	This is so bad.
	Social entrepreneurs.
	We're like anti-social entrepreneurs.
	That's what we do.
	We're anti-social entrepreneurs.
	I like it.
	Yeah, why don't we leave it at that and I will write that down as a new mantra for us, the anti-social entrepreneurs.
	And let's pick this up on Sunday because this is clearly big.
	So don't forget to help us out here.
	If you like this sort of thing, noagendashow.com, dvorak.org.na, and the ever-popular channel, dvorak.com.na.
	And if you are migrating from PHP 5.1.6 to PHP 5.2, you will encounter a disappearing page issue for pages over a certain size.
	Would you...
	Care to guess what the size of the character string that blows out PHP 5.2, John?
	I don't know, 333?
	33,333.
	Oh.
	If the character string is 33,332, no error.
	If it's 33,333, it's an error.
	I'll put that in the show notes.
	Because this is more proof the magic number is with us everywhere.
	It's good to know.
	And you should donate $33,333 to noagendashow.com.
	Maybe we'll get a check from Soros.
	Coming to you from the Hilltop Watchtower in Southern California, Game Boy Nation West, I'm Adam Curry.
	And from Northern Silicon Valley, sunny California, I'm John C. Dvorak.
