	Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak.
	It's Sunday, November 26, 2017!
	This is your award-winning Gitmo Nation Media Assassination, Episode 9 or 8, 5!
	This is No Agenda.
	Still giving thanks from Texas to T-Time and broadcasting live from downtown Austin Teos, capital drone, Star State, in the Cludio, in the morning, everybody.
	I'm Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley, where the Zephyr has not really gone by, but it will, I guess, someday.
	I'm John C. Dvorak.
	It's Crackmon and Buzzkill.
	In the morning.
	You can't be seeing the Zephyr.
	You're in London.
	You know, the funny thing is, I've decided my openings suck.
	Wait a minute.
	When did you realize this?
	Episode 200?
	No, just like a couple episodes ago.
	Somebody pointed it out.
	Well, sometimes it feels a little uninspired.
	That's why I say this effort is going to come by sometime, but not until I get back home.
	Oh, okay.
	So this is a special best of show of the No Agenda podcast.
	Yeah.
	Another one of the Ramsey Cain.
	Yes, if you've never heard of Ramsey Cain best of show, then you really have not lived.
	And he's doing it with Sir Fettig, I think, as far as I know.
	Oh, it's a joint, as they say in the hip-hop business?
	It's a joint, JB. It's a joint, man.
	That's cool.
	Very nice.
	So now you talk to him, because last time he did one was quite a while ago, a couple years ago, I think.
	Yes, it's been a long time, and so I talked him into doing a couple, and he said, yeah, he'll do it.
	And so he's put this one together, which looks like a winner.
	And we'll cut right to it, and then we'll get back about halfway through to discuss it.
	All right, everybody.
	Brought to you by Sir Ramsey Cain, also known from NoAgendaCD.com, the best of Niner 8.5.
	These clips are pretty evergreen.
	Let me see if there's one thing here that...
	Great lead in.
	Play the great lead in for anything.
	We can use this as a lead in for anything.
	If you're one of over 50 million adults who suffer from a sore mouth...
	Then you're in the right place.
	The best podcast in the universe.
	Sore mouth.
	Okay.
	Thank you.
	That was well worth it.
	Okay.
	I just have a couple of things on the war on ammo.
	So, Erin Burnett, as we say here in Texas, because everything is Burnett Road, she...
	She did the most horrible thing.
	Now, we know that as a part of this whole gun conversation, which, by the way, I want to point out that we have military doing exercises over our cities.
	We're going to have the Sandy Hook children will be singing at the Super Bowl.
	Apparently, you're like, oh...
	It's like, oh, we can't have guns.
	Guns are bad.
	But, of course, the Super Bowl will start with jets flying overhead and military marching bands.
	It's like, guns are great in America as long as you don't have them.
	The insanity of this.
	And, of course, we are looking at insanity literally from a perspective of are people drugged?
	And now everyone's coming out and saying, well, you know, there's a high correlation between these mass shootings and these guys have been on drugs, except they never actually report that.
	They only say it after the fact a little bit.
	It's never like he was on drugs.
	Never, ever is that in the report.
	But the high correlation between video games, not the media.
	It's not television and movies because we give them a tax break.
	We love them because they help get our politicians elected and stay in office.
	So we will stay away from the media, but we will tackle video games.
	So Erin Burnett has a constitutional law professor on from Harvard.
	And she is going to state the fact that That video games turn men into violent mass shooters.
	Fact.
	And he's going to debunk it, and she's going to just steamroll over him, particularly when he goes off script.
	You'll like it.
	...far he's declined.
	There's the saying that guns don't kill people, video games do.
	Do you know this saying, John?
	I've never heard this saying, this old saying.
	This old saying that comes from the Wild West.
	Guns don't kill people.
	Video games kill people.
	Oh, but wait, there's more.
	Senator Grassley implies he made kids more violent.
	Does it add up?
	William Pollack is a psychologist and author of Real Boys Rescuing Our Sons from the Myths of Boyhood.
	Sir, I really appreciate your taking the time.
	Let me just ask you the point-blank question.
	It is a lot of people out there now.
	This is accepted as a fact, that all these violent games, and by the way, they are horrifically violent...
	It's accepted as a fact.
	It's accepted as a fact.
	Do you hear what she's saying?
	Yeah, she says it's accepted as a fact when in fact it's not accepted as a fact, just the opposite.
	It's why we are seeing this feeling, this seemingly explosion in mass shootings.
	True?
	No, not true.
	I mean, I agree with the senator.
	We should put some controls on those video games.
	But they don't cause the shootings anything more than one item does.
	So this is where already Aaron's like, who invited this guy?
	It's a fact.
	It's a fact.
	And that man did say that he trained on a video game.
	Oh, I have no doubt about it.
	I agree with Senator Grassley.
	We need controls over violence in our media and in our...
	Oh, no!
	Oh, no!
	He didn't!
	He didn't say violence in our media, did he?
	Oh, Aaron!
	Aaron, get to work, girl!
	Video games, especially for younger children.
	But that alone isn't the answer.
	We need those controls.
	Yeah.
	But what about, let me just ask you another question about Grand Theft Auto.
	So let's go right over the media thing.
	Let's go right back to video games.
	Grand Theft Auto.
	There's probably some viewers out there playing this all the time.
	All right, this turns, when you kill people, you win points, right?
	For example, you kill a prostitute, and that's a big thing.
	You get to win points.
	I mean, you know, I find that offensive and disgusting.
	Hold on, Aaron.
	As a prostitute, I find that offensive.
	Exactly.
	As a prostitute, I find that very offensive.
	You don't kill hookers.
	I find that offensive.
	That would be like me.
	Does that mean that those people who play that game are more likely to kill people?
	No.
	It's heinous.
	So he's saying no.
	Now she's going to have to discredit this guy.
	Law professor.
	It's disgusting.
	It's heinous.
	And it's possible that boys who watch that for a long period of time might stand back when fighting occurs and not protect someone or engage in domestic violence.
	But there's no proof that they're going to go out, get a gun, and shoot someone.
	Absolutely no proof at all.
	Alright.
	Well, thank you very much.
	We appreciate your taking the time and giving some provocative answers there.
	Provocative answers. Provocative answers.
	Still to come.
	New development.
	Provocative answers.
	You know, yes, controversial and provocative answers.
	So this is what it's going to be.
	Fact.
	Guns don't kill people.
	Video games kill people.
	Fact.
	When you kill hookers in Grand Theft Auto, you want to kill people for points in real life.
	Fact.
	She's an idiot.
	Oh, yeah.
	You're a douchebag.
	Oh, yeah, absolutely.
	Douchebag!
	She's a CFR member.
	She's in that drinking club.
	In case you missed this, John...
	This song makes me feel like she's with me and she's beside me singing along with me.
	Somewhere over the lake...
	Are you familiar with this song, John, or this particular version?
	Yeah, this is the Children of Sandy Hook, who have been appearing on shows here and there, performing the song Somewhere Over the Rainbow, originally performed, of course, by Judy Garland.
	In the Wizard of Oz.
	Now, if you were to Google MKUltra and Somewhere Over the Rainbow, you will get a million YouTube hits.
	This is the song that is meant to trigger MKUltra mind-controlled subjects.
	So that is very interesting.
	And I'm not making this up.
	This has been a topic of discussion for 20 years, maybe even longer.
	And now these children, the survivors of Sandy Hook or whatever they're called, are actually singing this song.
	What's even crazier, though, is that Judy Garland, did you know that she had a record company?
	No, I didn't know that she did.
	She had a record company and she released songs for Annie Go Get Your Gun.
	The name of her record company?
	Sandy Hook Records.
	That's a good one.
	They like to throw it in your face, my brother.
	I'm just saying.
	They like to throw it in your face.
	Sandy Hook Records.
	So I guess this is as good a moment as any for the PPOD. Okay, everybody, it's time!
	Okay, here's the deal.
	This actually got to me a couple of weeks ago, and then I heard this ad.
	With Ragu, you can give your kids veggies they'll actually eat.
	Ragu has more than a full serving of veggies in every half cup.
	So give them a good start with all-natural Ragu.
	Feed our kids well.
	Veggies?
	When did veggies become like a mainstream term?
	Oh, veggies.
	What is it?
	Are these people six years old?
	You know, I started seeing this word veggies cropping up, and you hear all the vegans all say, oh, veggies, veggies.
	Oh, I've got my veggies.
	And I saw what really got to me was on Yelp.
	You see these, oh, the veggies are really good.
	What veggies?
	What's veggies?
	I don't get what veggies is.
	It's like somebody saying, what do you like to eat?
	I like to eat meat.
	It doesn't mean anything.
	But the term veggies is so kind of like third grade that it just galls me.
	It just irks me to hear grown women say veggies.
	And then when I heard this commercial, it just took me over the top.
	And by the way, also when you do a Yelp post...
	I think you can say a little more than the word yum to describe the meal.
	Is that it?
	Yeah.
	It's a part of the dumbing down of the masses, John.
	It's so incredibly clear.
	I got a couple.
	We're getting near the end here.
	Yeah, we are.
	I do have a new segment of the show I'd like to do.
	Oh, okay.
	I just kind of maybe replaced the Ask Adam bit, which failed.
	Well, it failed because you never had a good question.
	Yeah, well, that could be it.
	I got another one, though.
	I got, for Adam, another Ask Adam, but it's called Guess the Movie.
	Ha, ha, ha, ha.
	Okay.
	Oh, I like this.
	You have to guess the movie.
	I'm really bad at this.
	I don't know any movies.
	This is why I dreamed this up, because you were bragging about all these movies you get to see.
	No, no.
	That's not true.
	Oh, I get to see all the screeners.
	Oh, I can't see you, the screeners.
	You're a peon.
	You can't see them.
	No, I didn't say I could.
	I was sending you the screeners.
	Mickey's afraid she'll get busted for, like, the SAG thing.
	They'll kick her out of the Union or whatever.
	That's a slave.
	Yeah.
	She's a good-looking one.
	Well, a lot of them were.
	Alright, guess the movie.
	Guess the movie, come on.
	Is this a current movie?
	Or do I get any help?
	No, there's always going to be movies, semi-historic movies.
	They're not going to be like a movie that just came out, because you probably wouldn't see it yet.
	Okay, so this is a...
	There's enough information in here for you to guess the movie.
	Alright, hold on a second.
	It's time for Adam to guess the movie.
	My colleagues in Argentina and Ontario have almost identical data.
	It's so hot here, we've had to seal off the mine.
	You double-check the numbers?
	I triple-check, my friend.
	I wish we were wrong, but...
	we're not.
	The Earth's crust is destabilizing It's too early Adrian, you have to begin the evacuation.
	My God.
	All our scientific advances...
	Our fancy machines, the Mayans, saw this coming thousands of years ago.
	Oh, wow.
	Well, there was some Indian dude in there, which was very...
	Ah, you can't guess.
	2012.
	The movie 2012.
	That was exactly what I was going to say!
	How soon they forget the movie 2012 came out when the world was supposed to end a couple months ago, and now we've completely forgotten about it.
	The people who Did that stupid movie, weren't being ridiculed.
	The idiots that had all these conventions in San Francisco, believe me, we went past one of them once.
	I snuck in to just hang out with the people.
	The 2012 is going to end the world group.
	Maniacs.
	You know what's funny?
	The chat room was being helpful by suggestions such as Caddyshack 2.
	At least they're good for a laugh.
	Wow.
	Well, I like the segment.
	In future, I would like you to give me a time, a little bit of time to...
	I'll set it up.
	No, you don't.
	Yeah, do you have a metronome?
	That's kind of cool.
	You know, this is interesting.
	So, Miguel listens to the show on higher speed, times 1.39.
	Yeah.
	And then, you know, sometimes when I'm listening to you guys on the stream, the normal stream, it feels like you're both asleep.
	It's quite funny.
	Can I just say...
	But from time to time, someone will make a YouTube clip, and it'll be of our show sped up.
	Let me just say something.
	This is not good for your brain.
	This is not a good idea.
	If you need to speed up our show to listen to it, you have problems much deeper than we can solve.
	I don't understand.
	John, what is this?
	What is this?
	I have no time to listen to the podcast.
	I don't listen to it really fast.
	Why?
	You actually do that very well.
	But it's...
	Yeah, but I don't understand what is the point.
	Is to save 10 minutes?
	I don't know.
	I think you miss too much nuance if you do that.
	I think you miss all the nuance.
	And, in fact, everyone is now banned from doing that.
	Well, I don't think Miguel's going to listen to you.
	Besides that, he's a 69-69 on his way to knighthood guy.
	Over and over again.
	Some people don't know.
	And here's a little clip of the mega-Obama-bot Barbara Boxer.
	Boxer?
	Is it Boxster?
	Boxer?
	Yeah, Boxer.
	Boxer.
	I like Boxster better than...
	Well, from now on, she's Barbara Boxster.
	She's the one, as you recall, that used to try to pick up the air pollution inspectors.
	Oh, do tell the story again, John.
	You really want me to tell you that?
	Yes, yes, because I... Yes, yes.
	We had two people, a member of the board, the Regional Air Pollution Board.
	One of them was Boxer and one was Feinstein.
	And I have these two anecdotes about both of them.
	But the Boxer one is the most interesting because...
	After one of the meetings, she would always try to solicit one of the air pollution inspectors.
	We all had cars.
	And you were an air inspection...
	Yeah, I was.
	I'm an expert on air pollution, believe it or not.
	Yeah, I believe it.
	So, we had these cars, and she would find some...
	Okay, can I get a ride home?
	And all the guys would bitch about this because she'd make a pass at everybody, trying to get them in the sack.
	Now, she's not...
	Certainly, back in the day, I think she's doable.
	Well...
	She still wears kind of whorish makeup.
	Yeah, but that's what's so great about it.
	Yes, but imagine this being 25 or longer years ago, a long time ago.
	She would look pretty good.
	Yes, that's what I'm saying.
	Yeah, no, I think she probably was.
	But it was very annoying.
	Nobody wanted to take her driver.
	It was like everyone would scatter when she came out of these meetings.
	She looks kind of like a news anchor.
	You know, she's sexy.
	How was her body?
	Was it okay back then?
	I don't know.
	I never fucked her.
	John!
	Jesus.
	Whatever the case, it would be the funniest thing to watch everyone scatter.
	Jump in their cars and drive off as fast as they could.
	Hey man, I gotta pick up the kids.
	Soon everyone took off.
	It looks like she had dark hair back in the day.
	She still does.
	No, no, no, no.
	No, she's like blondish, darkest blonde.
	Anyway, so she is a super-duper Obama bot, and here's her contribution.
	She's dumb, by the way.
	That's a real problem.
	Wait a minute.
	How about Feinstein?
	Was she whorish, too?
	No, not at all.
	But she was just the opposite.
	She was very prudish.
	But she was also, I would say, she was even dumber.
	Well, listen, you can't fix stupid.
	We all know that.
	That's what we say here in Texas.
	Okay.
	I have a thing to start off the second half with.
	Okay.
	So I've, yeah, digging through my, I have a pile of, not that it's a collection, but I have a pile of hard disks from various machines I once owned.
	I always take and discard the machine in some way to an electron, so I always pull the hard disks out with some intention someday in the future, taking a big giant drill and drilling a hole in each one so that you can't.
	Hold on, is this some kind of tech news?
	No, it's not.
	What, you want it to be tech news?
	I don't know.
	I'm just asking if it's tech news.
	No, it's not really.
	In the process of doing this, I have a couple of these disk readers.
	Now they're USB 3 versions of them.
	You just slam the disk into this device, the disk drive, and then it hooks it up and pretends to be a USB drive.
	And so you can go through old stuff.
	I don't know why I'd want to do this, but I'm looking for stuff I lost.
	And so I found this old clip from, I don't know, five or six years.
	Talk about stuff that gets forgotten.
	And I'm going to probably do one of these clips every show from now on.
	I don't even know if that's proper English.
	It gets forgotten.
	It gets forgotten.
	It's probably not.
	But let's play it so we can just remind ourselves that, you know, a lot of these news stories, they cycle out of the, they cycle away.
	We forget about them.
	And there's something that we need to be reminded that this actually happened.
	And this one is Al Gore sex molester.
	The sex that poodle.
	My exclusive interview with Bachelor Jake's coming up, but right now, another Al Gore scandal.
	First, it was the cheating rumors, and now, accusations of sexual assault.
	Jerry's got the police reporting what Al's saying today.
	The breakup, forced to deny cheating claims, and now Al Gore's bad month just got worse.
	The shocking allegation today, Gore, the target of a sex charge investigation.
	Extra with a 73-page police report listing Gore as the suspect.
	The allegation, unwanted sexual contact.
	The woman leveling the stunning claims of 54-year-old massage therapist who says it all went down during and after she gave him a massage in this posh Portland hotel.
	She says it was 2006, one day before Gore appeared at this fundraiser, just a few months after the premiere of Gore's documentary, An Inconvenient Truth.
	I am Al Gore.
	I used to be the next president of the United States of America.
	Gore attorneys have denied the story, calling it completely false.
	Now Extra launching our own investigation.
	Extra!
	Exhibit A. The case is already closed.
	Police shutting the book on this one back in 07, saying there was insufficient evidence.
	Police said they would have investigated.
	She never filed charges.
	Exhibit B. The National Enquirer says the woman only went back to police last month after she failed to sell her story for one million dollars.
	But the most important exhibit could be DNA evidence.
	One report says the woman has the pants she wore on the alleged day locked away in a safety deposit box.
	The question now, what should Al Gore do next?
	Until Al Gore comes out and talks about this in some capacity, these rumors are just going to kind of percolate and stay around.
	Today, a spokesman tells Extra, the Gores have no comment on the report.
	Do whatever you're going to do!
	I'm not scum like you!
	You go to your daddy Satan anytime you want!
	I'll never join you!
	You understand that filth?
	Well, since you're doing that, then why don't we...
	And by the way...
	What?
	This is a capper.
	This did not percolate in...
	No, nothing.
	Nothing happened.
	Something got bought off.
	Nothing happened.
	But I'm going to do some real news here, since you brought it up.
	And now, back to real news.
	Initial reports of the fatal accident along PCH had Bruce Jenner at the tail end of a chain reaction crash where a Lexus rear-ended a Prius and then Jenner's Escalade pushed the Lexus into oncoming traffic.
	69-year-old Kim Howe was killed when a Hummer hit her car.
	But AP sources now say video shows Jenner's SUV hit both cars and the Lexus never did hit the Prius to begin with.
	A version reflected in a new animated video created Even before the AP source came forward.
	Now, this is very annoying because I'm pretty sure that this happened so close to the Diane Sawyer interview.
	And now, of course, we're about to launch the reality show.
	I think it airs the end of this month or docudrama or whatever it is.
	Well, we better look at the timeline on this because my understanding is I've talked or people have talked to me about this and they claim people are a little out there.
	Uh-huh.
	That this happened before any of his decisions or anything else to become a woman.
	But you know that the deal was already set.
	Now, this happened, they had been negotiating with the ESPN, Omba, ABC. They negotiated all of this months ahead of time.
	So I'm pretty sure what happened is, this went down, we can't have this guy being in jail because we have an interview with him.
	Everything's planned.
	Yeah, it was all set up.
	It's all set up.
	So they had to kill it.
	But now they have video, and you see the video.
	It's very obvious what happened.
	Where'd they get the video?
	MTA. Did you listen to the report?
	Yeah, I thought they said they recreated it.
	No, they have the video.
	They don't own it.
	I didn't have a good clip, but I've seen the video.
	And it's from an MTA bus.
	Oh, okay.
	The buses are all equipped with cameras.
	In San Francisco, this to me is annoying.
	The buses are all equipped with cameras to keep, so they can have the license plates of people who happen to be in the bus lanes, so they can give them a ticket by mail to make more money.
	That's right.
	It's all going to end with the Google auto-driving car.
	It's all going to end, people.
	By the way, we now have the Bicurious section.
	Which includes the custom kilts and utility kilts.
	It's in the show notes.
	I'm going to get me a kilt.
	Yeah.
	I think it's a good look.
	You all...
	Yeah.
	Yeah, it's a great look.
	I like the camo kilt is the one I'm going for.
	Oh, yeah, yeah.
	So amidst all of this kind of crazy stuff that's been happening here in the United States, there was another one of these big fireballs in the sky, I think.
	Let me see where this one was.
	It was over Madrid.
	Madrid, Spain.
	A brilliant ball of flames streaked across the sky above the Spanish capital of Madrid.
	Dazzling stargazers and astronomers alike.
	What could it be?
	Well, I've done a little bit of research because I thought it was time to spruce up our second half of the show.
	And I stumbled across an interesting article from the Navy.
	Navy.mil, in fact, is where this comes from.
	Navy.mil?
	Navy.mil, exactly.
	NRL, which stands for Naval Research Laboratory, scientists produce densest artificial ionospheric plasma clouds using HAARP. I'm like, huh.
	So, essentially, they're creating plasma blobs in the sky...
	I'll read it from the press release.
	This is from the end of February from this year, this press release.
	These glow discharges in the upper atmosphere were generated as a part of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency-sponsored basic research on ionospheric characteristics and effect, also known as brioche.
	Oh, those guys are so funny with their code names, aren't they?
	Look, it's a piece of bread in the sky.
	Brioche.
	The Brioche campaign to explore ionospheric phenomena and its impact on communications and space weather.
	You know my theory on how essentially there's a space war going on all the time and that we're just kind of oblivious to it?
	Yeah, we haven't heard that for a while.
	Yeah, but when I see this, here, using the 3.6 megawatt high-frequency HAARP transmitter, the plasma clouds, or balls of plasma, are being studied for use as artificial mirrors at altitudes 50 kilometers below the natural ionosphere and are to be used for reflection of HF radar and communication signals.
	Now, this is bull crap.
	Well, I don't know.
	I mean, they've been saying since day one that the whole HAARP thing is about communications.
	Say what you will about the HAARP thing, but using plasma as mirrors?
	Are you kidding me?
	We have 100,000 satellites in orbit.
	They all have mirrors.
	You don't need plasma to act.
	In fact, plasma is a very bad mirror.
	This is total bull crap.
	What is plasma used for?
	Weaponry!
	And now that I'm thinking about that Russian thing, maybe it was just a ball of plasma that tipped over.
	And we keep seeing these things.
	I mean, these can't all be meteorites.
	I think this plasma thing needs to be researched.
	And I know that just by saying this, people are going to start sending me information.
	But this plasma, like, oh, we're using it to bounce radio transmissions?
	No, no, no, no.
	I know enough that plasma is not what I want to be sending my radio transmission into.
	At all.
	Interesting point.
	By the way, if we want people to send us stuff, which you just solicited, I need to mention that Thorin, our artist, He needs to send us a big version of the artwork for bag 33 because that's going to be the design we're going to use on our bags.
	Oh, wow.
	Great.
	Like it.
	So tell him to get a hold of me.
	Send me a note at johnatdvorak.org because I don't have Thorin's address.
	Nobody ever, of course, none of these artists are all holed up somewhere.
	They never talk to us.
	No.
	Did you know that asteroids or incoming space rocks are classified?
	What do you mean they're classified?
	Yeah, here's a big one.
	This is a B. No, no, no.
	This is a bigger one.
	This is a C. No.
	As in, it's military policy observations of, so if the Navy observes a space rock, an asteroid, meteorite, advertising, call it what you want, That that information is classified, not public.
	Why?
	Thank you.
	Good question.
	But apparently it's been that way for 10 or 15 years.
	They're classifying everything.
	Guy takes a poop.
	That's classified turd material right there, son!
	So, you know, I'm just saying, you take that along with this plasma thing...
	Do you know how many satellites?
	Amherst radio guys launching satellites all the time.
	Hey, Elon, can you throw one of our satellites out?
	Do you know how many satellites are up there?
	It's got to be an unbelievable amount.
	We should look at it.
	Seriously, there must be thousands and maybe 10,000 satellites, maybe even more.
	Who the hell knows?
	And they're all distances.
	It's weird.
	Yeah.
	The geosynchronous ones, they must be like lined up, bumped up against each other.
	Yeah, well, from time to time, you know, they knock each other out.
	We've seen this.
	We've seen this happen.
	There's space wars going on, people, and these plasma events, you know, that it's like, oh, well, it must have been a meteorite.
	Oh, it must have been an asteroid.
	Oh, well, we don't know what it is.
	No one cares anymore.
	Oh, just another flashing thing through the sky.
	Oh, well, I guess it's something.
	So where was all these attacks from Kim Jong-un?
	Yeah.
	He ain't got no plasma.
	He can't shoot no plasma.
	All right.
	So...
	So one of these babes in this band, KSM, she's really amazingly hot.
	She's going to be big.
	Let me see this KSM band.
	She's going to be big.
	She's going to be bigger than Miley Cyrus or Britney Spears if she plays her cards right.
	Let me see this KSM band.
	I'll tell you what I think of this.
	Which...
	I think these girls have already come and gone.
	I don't think...
	Oh, they play instruments?
	This one girl's got to make a move on her long-term career if she wants to get anywhere.
	Which one?
	The one with the spiky hair?
	Which one?
	I don't know which picture.
	No, not the one with the spiky hair.
	She's a brunette.
	They're all brunettes.
	She's got kind of bushy eyebrows.
	She's really pretty.
	Oh, right.
	She's in the middle.
	Well, it depends on the picture.
	I'm looking at like 40 pictures.
	She's over here.
	She's over there.
	There's a straight shot of her.
	I think they'll all be in the middle.
	If you just type in KSM and hit images, she's in the third row in the middle.
	Hmm.
	I don't know why you even got me to look.
	That's pretty sad.
	It is.
	You're just pathetic.
	And then there's some army guy in the middle of these images.
	It's funny.
	What are you thankful for?
	That's like Thanksgiving.
	Do you ever do that where you go around the table and everyone has to say what they're thankful for?
	No.
	God, no.
	That's my family.
	That's what my family does.
	Now, let's all hold hands and share a secret.
	Yeah, every single Thanksgiving.
	Share a secret.
	That's what they do.
	That's what they do.
	It's like we all say what we're thankful for.
	Come on, that's nice.
	That's the American way, John.
	That sounds like the Dutch way.
	No.
	Dude, I have no Dutch family.
	I'm sure that there are some families that sit around doing that bit, even though Thanksgiving is like a fake holiday, was actually created long after its invention, which actually came and went in the 1800s, finally made into a permanent holiday by Abraham Lincoln, and it had to do with being thankful for the end of the Civil War and the soldiers that fought.
	That's what it was about.
	It wasn't about pilgrims and Indians and turkeys and corn.
	Really?
	Yeah, really.
	And so then you find it somewhere morphed into this bogus holiday about pilgrims and Indians and corn, and you can find references to these little potlaps that they apparently had back when, that people would try to sell on the holiday.
	Oh, no, it's about that.
	It's not about...
	Technically, Thanksgiving, which was put into play by Abraham Lincoln, and it had to do with thanking us for the end of the war and the soldiers who sacrificed themselves.
	It had nothing to do with pilgrims and Indians.
	And meanwhile, the kids in school are propagandized about this fake holiday.
	It's unbelievable to me.
	Well, hold on a second.
	It's a pet peeve.
	Hold on.
	Wait a minute.
	You caught me off guard there.
	Here we go.
	Come see the Borax Pet Peeve of the Day.
	According to Wikipedia, which of course is the Bible, Thanksgiving Day is a harvest festival.
	Traditionally, it is time to give thanks for the harvest and express gratitude in general.
	It is a holiday celebrated primarily in Canada and the United States.
	While perhaps religious in origin, Thanksgiving is now primarily identified as a secular holiday.
	Lies!
	Wikipedia disagrees with you, John.
	Lies!
	They don't do a little history.
	Have a historian go in there and fix that piece of crap.
	Well, maybe you should go in and fix that piece of crap.
	I don't have you.
	I just did.
	Though the earliest attested Thanksgiving celebration was on September 8, 1565 in what is now St.
	Augustine, Florida, the traditional first Thanksgiving is venerated as having occurred at the site of Plymouth Plantation in 1621.
	Yeah, right.
	So you're saying that this was Abraham Lincoln, huh?
	Yep.
	That's fascinating.
	There's a very good history.
	Actually, I think if you go to dvorak.org slash blog, I think we have the outline of the history of Thanksgiving.
	I'll go dig it up and repost it.
	I usually post it every year in November.
	My kids are aware of it, and they argue with their teachers in school, of course, which gets them into nothing but trouble.
	Yeah, yeah, I hear you.
	Because heaven forbid that any real facts emerge from the educational environment.
	October 3rd, 18...
	It's well documented.
	Yes, yes, October 3rd, 1863.
	President Abraham Lincoln says, a proclamation which set the precedent for America's National Day of Thanksgiving.
	During his administration, President Lincoln issued many orders like this.
	And here's the whole proclamation for this day of Thanksgiving.
	So it's actually October 3rd.
	What are we doing Thursday in November?
	What the hell is it?
	When you follow the history of it, it kind of bounces around a lot and then somebody set it in stone.
	Well, how can I believe anything I'm taught in school now?
	This is a jip.
	A jip.
	Well, now I'm not going to celebrate anymore because I'm not thankful.
	Yeah.
	Well, there you have it.
	I'm sorry.
	This cornball idea that I'm going to sit around the table with a bunch of relatives I probably don't like and tell them what I'm thankful for, they can go look it up.
	Wait, I have to play it again?
	That's so good, John.
	I'm going to do that this Thanksgiving when we're all around the table and we're going to say what we're thanks for.
	I'm going to say I'm very thankful for President Abraham Lincoln who on October 3rd, 1863 proclaimed the following.
	And I'm just going to go through this whole thing.
	And I say, and by the way, you were gypped.
	You were just gypped.
	This has nothing to do with pilgrims and Indians and corn and turkeys.
	How'd the turkeys get in there, by the way?
	You were scammed.
	How do you think they got in there?
	Some poultry guy dreamed that one up.
	He says, what are we going to do with these damn birds?
	These things are like huge.
	They're impossible.
	Nobody wants to eat them every day.
	Well, I got an idea.
	Hey, let's add them on to that Thanksgiving day.
	I like it.
	We're talking about turkeys.
	This is a new segment I want to see.
	Maybe you won't like it.
	I try these new segments all the time trying to keep the show...
	Fresh.
	A living show.
	Fresh.
	Fresh.
	I always try to keep the show a fresh living show.
	And this one is going to be, this new segment is called Guess the Movie.
	And you have to guess the movie, because I know you're a great movie buff.
	Okay.
	Seymour Butts, 39.
	No, no, you've got to guess it after the clip.
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	Alright, Guess the Movie.
	And now, I see the clip is 40 seconds.
	Now, are you going to give me any frame of reference?
	Uh, no.
	Okay.
	It's such a classic clip that you'll guess it immediately.
	Everyone be quiet.
	I have to concentrate now.
	Top Gun.
	Just play the clip then guess.
	Wait, wait.
	This is much better.
	A Kerozone magic mixture.
	Let me help you.
	What do you think you're doing?
	Covering your wound.
	My wound is lower.
	We don't want an infection to spread.
	I'll spread your head open.
	This is what the world has come to.
	You try to help somebody, and what do you get instead of thanks?
	Great.
	Yay.
	Ha!
	This is a dumb segment.
	You're going to guess or not?
	I have no idea.
	I have no...
	Conan the Destroyer.
	Starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.
	Ah...
	All right.
	I thought you were more of a movie buff.
	Not at all.
	Oh, what did I think that?
	I don't know.
	I don't know anything about movies.
	Oh, okay.
	Well, I'll can the segment.
	Well, then let me...
	I got the clip on the porno teacher.
	Well, no.
	Why don't we do something interesting for a minute here?
	Oh.
	You're out of control with your clips.
	You're like, I don't have anything?
	Like I showed up to the party with no marshmallows?
	No.
	Go.
	This better be good.
	So I got one clip.
	Dr.
	Oz hit it.
	Dr.
	Oz?
	Let's take a little clip to show you how awkward it got in one moment.
	You can't answer this question.
	Best after-sex food.
	Lots of insights here.
	It's wonderful.
	What about for you?
	Oh, please, please.
	I like soaked nuts.
	Wait a minute.
	Did Dr.
	Oz really say that?
	Yeah.
	He said, I like soaked nuts.
	After sex.
	Okay, the guy just went up ten points in my book.
	Soaked nuts.
	Soaked nuts.
	Really?
	And this was on broadcast television?
	Yes.
	Wow.
	Wow, wow, wow.
	That's hardcore.
	Soaked nuts.
	I do have one kind of an oddball clip since you're going to play.
	You want oddball stuff.
	No, I want the truth and nothing but the truth.
	Well, this is the truth.
	You were mentioning journalists a little while ago and some of the things they do to phony up.
	Well, not just journalists, but the media period.
	So I think once in a while somebody gets a hold of the PBS people because I think there's a lack of respect.
	And so they get home and they give him a bullshit story.
	And I'm going to play this cloning tree story.
	Now, you have to remember, I don't want to, you know, go on to a thing, ask Adam or anything.
	But I don't know, but most people know, how do you propagate fruit trees?
	You take cuttings.
	This is with grapes, too.
	You take cuttings from the trees that exist.
	And you stick them in the ground and they root and you have another tree.
	You don't take seeds...
	From a peach and plant the seed and expect to get the same tree.
	It's just not going to happen.
	Is that true?
	I had no idea.
	Oh, okay.
	Well, now you know.
	Now, first of all, a peach has a pit.
	It doesn't have seeds.
	No, the pit is a seed.
	Yeah, but you made it sound like there was a whole bunch of seeds in a peach.
	No, no, no.
	It's a single seed.
	I mean, an apricot has a pit, and you drop that thing in the ground.
	Okay, well, hold on.
	So Johnny Appleseed, when he went out and just dropped apple seeds, that didn't grow the trees?
	That's not how the apple tree grows?
	You can grow a tree from a seed, and I suppose Johnny Appleseed could do that, but you don't have a type of tree.
	You can't get the same tree from every one of those seeds.
	They're all different because they're breeding, and God knows what.
	Most of them don't bear fruit.
	I have, for example, in my backyard, probably about 20 plum seedlings that are the result of my biting into a plum and then eating it and then chucking the seed out into the yard.
	Yeah.
	Along with the tires and stuff in the back there?
	Yeah, and the thing up on blocks.
	I can just see you go, hey, what's this?
	What's this in my plum?
	So they don't give you any plums.
	They just blossom and they blossom.
	But anyway, so the way you propagate grapes, for example, you take a Cabernet and you stick another piece in the ground.
	That's the way it's done.
	It's called cloning.
	Yes.
	Well, apparently somebody at PBS doesn't have any clue about this.
	It's including the whole staff.
	Wait, let me guess.
	And they thought that this was genetically modified?
	I guess.
	I'm not sure.
	The spring in Washington and the cherry blossoms have arrived.
	Hari Sreenivasan tells us how scientists are working to keep the trees blooming.
	More than a million visitors flock to Washington, D.C. each spring to view the cherry trees.
	But the stock of original trees is rapidly depleting.
	On Science Wednesday, learn about how the efforts are not just to replace the trees, but to clone them.
	All that and more is on our website, newshour.pbs.org.
	Science!
	Hey, so, that's funny.
	So NPR has Science Friday, but PBS has Science Wednesday?
	Yeah.
	What is this?
	I don't know.
	These people, they don't know anything about, apparently, nothing about science with that report.
	Science!
	Science!
	We're going to clone the cherry trees!
	That's how you do it, you idiots!
	We have to clone them.
	Oh, wow.
	You know, this would be great for our Wednesday Science Hour.
	Science Wednesday, everybody!
	Now, here's something I've picked up.
	You know, we are, of course, the word Nazis.
	We continuously work on ourselves to stop saying...
	Stop using certain phrases and descriptors that are overused, such as amazing, outrageous, fact of the matter.
	Yeah, no.
	Even the soul.
	Remember we had the soul?
	Soul.
	There's a new one.
	You ready for this?
	Now, people...
	I know it's getting difficult, or maybe not difficult, but people hear these things, and now you're hearing it everywhere.
	Once we tell you about it, so if you don't want to be bothered, don't listen to this.
	You have an opportunity to turn off the stream.
	One, two, three, go.
	It's so funny.
	This is a phrase...
	Somebody wrote us about a couple of these.
	Well, it's so funny is rampant.
	People are saying, you know, it's so funny that...
	It's so funny that...
	I have not heard this.
	Oh, you'll hear it everywhere now.
	And I think we do it too.
	I think we do it too.
	Oh, no.
	That means that one guy who keeps dogging us is going to put together another clip of us doing it.
	I don't think...
	God, I hope not.
	It's so funny how the elites are trying to kill us.
	The point is, it's not funny.
	It's not funny.
	So I've come up with a surefire remedy.
	Okay, you start a sentence off with, it's so funny.
	It's so funny.
	That's what you do.
	It's so funny.
	Just laugh hysterically.
	It's so funny.
	And then just say, yeah, you're right.
	It was funny.
	You're going to see this.
	You're going to see this everywhere.
	It's so funny.
	There was...
	I think I've mentioned many times it is so incredibly easy to do a little bit of promotion for the show on C-SPAN when they have the Washington Journal where they have guests.
	You can call in.
	You can call in on the Democrat line, Republican line, or the Independent line.
	And it's a great way to just throw in Best Podcast in the Universe, NoAgendaShow.com.
	There's a million different things you can do.
	I forget which, there was a congressman on the show and he was taking calls and this happened.
	Glenn called in from Salt Lake City, Utah.
	Glenn, good morning.
	Hi, good morning.
	My question is, since we're spending all this money, where are we getting the money from?
	And my second question is, if I can shit in your mouth.
	I apologize for that, Congressman.
	Don't take that kind of language here on the Washington Journal.
	We'll move on.
	Yeah, move on.
	Some asshole will go do that, but no one will come out and say, you know, no agenda show talked about this, blah, blah, blah.
	Right.
	I think that's my point.
	What should it be?
	I mean...
	That's a good one, though.
	Because what are you going to say?
	Depends on your definition of that's a good one.
	What are you going to say?
	Juvenile sense of humor.
	Yeah, that made my day.
	But I watch a lot of C-SPAN. When something like that comes along...
	Definitely a change of pace.
	I covet that.
	Somebody give me an appletini.
	Shut up.
	If you got the appletini, I gotta do one thing.
	I know that you don't like this.
	I'm trying to make it a positive thing.
	Oh, no.
	I don't have a jingle for it, but let me guess.
	Is it Guess That Movie Time again?
	Yes.
	All right.
	Do I play the clip?
	Yeah, but there's lots of clues in this one.
	You should be able to get it.
	Well done, Dr.
	Maffone.
	Let's celebrate.
	Cheers.
	The Titanosaurus controller is ready.
	As financier of this vast undertaking, I must say I'm extremely happy.
	Good, good.
	I'm indebted to you for believing my theory.
	I cannot thank you enough.
	Cheers, Doctor.
	Thank you, thank you.
	Father, a man from Interpol came.
	What, sir?
	Interpol?
	They asked to see you.
	They wanted to know about dinosaurs.
	They've arrived 15 years too late to ask me about that.
	Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
	I told them then I'd make them sorry.
	Now my theory has proved to be correct.
	Now take revenge on them all!
	On those fools who thought I was crazy and forced me to resign!
	Okay.
	No-brainer.
	It's either...
	Octopussy?
	Octopussy!
	Or...
	It's not Octopussy?
	That was my first game.
	See, you're not taking this segment seriously.
	I am.
	I don't know this movie, so I'm just trying to go by what I heard.
	I thought I heard someone say Bond in there.
	I thought it was a James Bond movie.
	I thought it was Godzilla.
	Well, no.
	It's a Godzilla movie called The Terror of Mechagodzilla.
	The guy has made a mechanical Godzilla to prove everybody else wrong, and he just starts to wreck the city, and then Godzilla itself comes up and saves the day as usual.
	Hey, by the way, I just got a text from Ms.
	Mickey.
	We have a strong gas smell coming from the outside of the house.
	I've called the gas company.
	They're on their way.
	Yeah?
	It's funny, because I thought I smelled something weird during the program.
	Yeah, go check your stove to see if it's like...
	I'm sure it's from outside the house.
	Oh, it could be anything.
	It could be a skunk.
	No, it's funny because we did have a skunk the other day.
	That's what skunks smell like.
	Ah, interesting.
	Or, it's finally time.
	It's going to blow up the place.
	Yeah, it happens.
	Hell yes, Mr.
	Curry had a gas leak.
	Yeah, and the whole house was blown up.
	It blew up.
	Two houses with it.
	I think, Mickey, I know you're listening, darling.
	It may be skunk.
	She's never smelled skunk.
	We talked about that.
	We saw the skunk the other day.
	Oh, if you saw a skunk, that's skunk.
	I think you're...
	If you saw a skunk, you have a rabbit skunk in the area.
	Yeah.
	You should not...
	It was during the day?
	Yes.
	Oh, not bad.
	Do you ever see a skunk during the day?
	This is my advice to people who don't know about skunks.
	Hold on a second.
	Ladies and gentlemen, we now have...
	Official news from John C. Dvorak, Skunk Awareness Week.
	Skunk Awareness Week.
	If you see a skunk out during the day, it's a nocturnal animal, you should realize he probably has, or she, has rabies.
	That will be the skunk tidbit of the day.
	Say that again.
	You sound just like you were in the club.
	Sounds like she should have rabies.
	On the pole, she's got rabies.
	Do not approach any skunk.
	I think you're right.
	I think it is a skunk.
	I think that's what it is.
	The difference is that the aroma that is in...
	I want to thank God and my manager.
	Now, before we go in, can I do a little something about the media?
	It threw me off this morning.
	I got some news that really freaked me out.
	I mean, it's not like horrible, but I wanted to share it because people have to understand how twisted the world of mainstream media is.
	You ready?
	Yes!
	Okay, now you remember that my daughter, I encouraged her to participate in this reality show in Namibia.
	Oh, it's going to be good.
	I can tell.
	Okay, so, and the whole idea was, it's called Jungle VIPs or something like that.
	And the idea is that you have these VIPs, you send them to a tribe, and they stay with this tribe for three weeks.
	And, you know, so it's challenging, right?
	It'll be cool because you see people who are used to the lap of luxury having to, I don't know, kill a pig and eat it in the morning and do tribe-like stuff.
	Right?
	Yeah.
	And I encouraged her to do this.
	I said, look, this is one of these things.
	Because she said, Dad, the money is whatever.
	Because she gets paid nicely for it, no doubt about it.
	But she says, I'll do it for the experience.
	I finally convinced her.
	With others, but I really pushed.
	I'm like, honey, when you get to be my age, I don't ask you to do this cool stuff anymore.
	Go do it.
	It'll be fun.
	And I had warned her.
	I said, you know, first of all, I helped her with the negotiation, you know, that she should get a phone call and et cetera.
	And she really got one phone call a week for the three weeks.
	So they screwed her on that.
	But it doesn't matter.
	She was in touch with her girlfriend and we'd hear that things were okay.
	And she would say, oh, you know, I got my tribe initiation.
	We had this whole thing and she got her tribe name.
	And so she was really into it.
	Right?
	And I had already warned her.
	I said, you know, this is a reality show.
	Even though no one gets voted off, they will try to do stuff like starve you, get you drunk, try to cause some commotion, because that's what these reality shows are based on.
	As long as you're aware of that, then, you know, you should be okay.
	So she's done.
	She's on her way back.
	She's still in Africa.
	And she calls up.
	Of all the things I could have prepared her for, what is the one thing that I didn't see coming?
	Douchebag producers?
	At the very last day, as they're about to say goodbye to the tribe, and they've been through tremendous tribulations, all kinds of stuff, I don't even know 10% of the stories, all of a sudden, The African tribe starts speaking Dutch.
	They put on their clothes.
	They were all actors.
	The whole thing was fake.
	What?
	And she's devastated.
	As am I. She thought she really went through this initiation.
	The whole time, they're just making fun of the people on the show.
	Wow, it's a meta show.
	So it's turned into this Truman Show big joke.
	We're just like, ha, ha, ha!
	Look at what we did to those saps!
	Oh, man!
	That's wild!
	I don't think you could have foreseen that.
	No, but she was devastated.
	She said, Daddy, I cried for hours.
	Because she really thought that she had...
	Because she said, I was so good, I really worked hard, and I really tried to be a part.
	And she was in the sweat hut and everything, and eating the poop.
	It's all bull crap.
	And these actors, right after everyone went to bed, they'd go and have steaks in the hotel like 10 miles down the road.
	The whole village was a set.
	Wow!
	But the arrogance, the elitist thinking of a television show, instead of...
	I mean, here was an opportunity...
	You could still have a great show to show people getting accustomed to someone else's life...
	This is like, fuck you, Africa.
	My mind is still boggled from this.
	That is really something.
	Welcome to modern show business.
	That's what it is.
	And she's destroyed.
	She's so angry about this.
	She's so angry.
	Isn't that crazy?
	Oh, it's totally crazy.
	It's very insulting.
	I could see her being upset about this for a while.
	Yeah, well, I'm upset because I'm the one that said, you know, it'll be a great experience.
	And if I see this, this is iWorks, by the way, the people who also produce Celebrity Splash and all that, and that little punk, Reinout Ulamont, if he gets in my path, I'm going to punch his lights out.
	He's a dick.
	Could you see them?
	This is so funny.
	Look what we've got them doing.
	They had like the fire rigged, you know, like one guy was supposed to do something special with the fire and then it would keep going out or then it would like flare up really bad and then the tribe were like, ooga booga, you're not doing it right, ooga booga, and they get all mad.
	Meanwhile, the production guys are sitting there with a gas flame turning it up and down.
	I mean, come on!
	And that is the level to which television has sunk.
	It's hunkin'.
	That's how low it goes.
	Anyway, so I'm sure I'm not supposed to be telling the story because it's supposed to be some big fucking secret.
	But screw them.
	So they roll it out at the end?
	Yeah.
	So in other words, the viewing audience doesn't know either?
	Well, they do now.
	Well, I know they do now.
	I don't know.
	I don't know what they're thinking.
	How can you possibly think that people are not going to talk about this huge hoax?
	How can you possibly think that that's not going to happen, that everyone's sworn to secrecy?
	And it's so funny.
	What I think is going to happen is they're going to roll it out as some Truman show, like, look at what we did, and it'll be hilarious to see these celebrities being dumb and being duped.
	Yeah, that's the way I would do it.
	That's the way I'd do it, too.
	Because, you know, you have to do it that way, because if the audience sees...
	Fooled, and then at the end they'll get mad too.
	Yeah.
	And they'll be sympathetic with the actors.
	So if you do it as a meta-meta show, in other words, you show the background and you show the guys eating steaks.
	Yeah.
	That's what I think they're going to do.
	That's the way I would do it.
	Yeah, that makes it worse, and it makes it kind of worse, but at the same time, since you're in on the joke, you get to kind of snicker at these idiots.
	And of course, what happens is because of the controversy, more people are going to watch it.
	That's the sick part of it.
	Yeah, no, it's totally sick.
	The whole thing is sick.
	It's terrible.
	However, Reinhold Ulamans is a marked man, and I have nights.
	Show me what you got.
	I'm making my bitch.
	John, just to wrap it up, I'd like to give you a pop quiz.
	Okay, Pop.
	What book has sold 25% more copies in the first half year of this year than it sold in all of last year?
	Shipping a total of 300,000 copies so far.
	What book could it be?
	Hold on a second.
	Hold on a second.
	I have...
	Again, your question.
	Atlas Shrugged.
	At least let the Jeopardy theme get in there a little bit.
	What is Atlas Shrugged?
	Yes, you answered in the form of a question.
	You are correct.
	You can go on to the Daily Double.
	That's right.
	Atlas Shrugged is seeing a huge resurgence because people are seeing the complete connections between what Ayn Rand wrote and what is happening today at this very moment.
	So it's time to go Galt, everybody.
	And again, something you heard on this show first before it became mainstream knowledge.
	Unfortunately.
	Have you read it yet, John?
	Yeah, I read it last week.
	Yeah, bullshit.
	You do not.
	This guy named Galt?
	Someone should stop him.
	He's a jackass.
	Alright.
	By the way, did you see...
	God, let me just bring that up for a second.
	One of our...
	I'll go unnamed.
	One of our producers in Finland sent me a test paper from his, I think, 12-year-old who was in Finnish school, but they have English lessons.
	Hold on a second.
	Because I tweeted it.
	Let me just bring up the image.
	He sent me the actual image of a test.
	Here we go.
	Mandela's 94.
	That's a nice age.
	Alright, so here is questions about the USA and Canada.
	And it's multiple choice.
	And so here's question number one.
	The capital of the USA is A, New York, B, Washington, D.C., C, Chicago.
	So interesting that Chicago was put on that list, but correctly answered, B, Washington, D.C. The United States of America has A, 50 states and 200 million people, B, 49 states and 300 million people, or C, 50 states and 300 million people.
	That was answered correctly.
	Dinosaurs and fossils.
	There are many dinosaurs and fossils in Yellowstone National Park.
	B, New Orleans is famous for dinosaurs and fossils.
	I think Hookers and Blow was crossed off.
	And C, many dinosaur bones and fossils were found in North America.
	That would be the correct answer.
	But here's where it gets interesting.
	Number five, Barack Obama.
	A, when Barry was a boy, he lived in Kenya.
	B, Barry was born in Indonesia.
	C, as a boy, Barry lived in Hawaii.
	So, this is like really interesting.
	So they're propagating the birther memes.
	Well, and this kid actually circled A when Barry was a boy.
	He lived in Kenya.
	That's how deep it goes.
	That's how deep.
	But his name is...
	The kid's...
	Is it a known fact that his name is Barry?
	Apparently.
	Because it's like, when did he become Barack Barack?
	When he wrote that book, I think, when he was at Harvard, Yale.
	The book where he said that he was actually from Kenya, that one?
	Yeah, that book.
	The book where in the bio on the book it says he's from Kenya.
	Right.
	But I found that fascinating, A, that that is a question, and B, that the kid answered it, Kenya.
	Yeah, I know.
	Well, that's interesting because it's obviously pushing the meme that it's okay, I think this might be it, it's okay to be a ruler, not born in the United States.
	This may be some globalist kind of agenda or some one world government thing, we don't know.
	But it seems that, though, this is entrenched, or it wouldn't be showing up in Finland exactly that way.
	Isn't that nutty that that's in Finland, man?
	Yeah, it's just a, you know, hmm.
	Well, we must make a note.
	Yeah, we should.
	I'm going to show my support by donating to no agenda.
	Imagine all the people who could do that.
	Oh, yeah, that'd be fab.
	Yeah, on no agenda in the morning.
	Wow.
	Yeah.
	Wow.
	Ramsey.
	Yeah, so far so good.
	Yeah.
	You know, it's like if I were to put together a best of, I'm sure I would have made different choices, and I'm really happy he did it.
	This is good.
	Well, it's better to have a third party.
	It's just it makes it a little more interesting.
	Yeah, which reminds me, I wanted to promote noagendaplayer.com, which is such a fantastic resource, but it really does need a little bit of help from people doing the annotations, because then you can really just go to that, go to noagendaplayer.com, look at the episode, and you can find exactly the topic that was being discussed.
	Just a little more crowdsourcing on that.
	And, of course, it links from our search page, our show notes search.
	So when you find something in the show notes at search.nashownotes.com, you click on the little headphones, takes you to know Agenda Player, right to that segment.
	It's a fantastic idea.
	It's two totally different people, two totally different initiatives, but yet they linked it all together.
	Actually, three with the show notes.
	Yeah, it's pretty...
	You know, if I was a student and I got wind of this show, I could kick so much ass with my papers.
	Yeah, it's funny you mention that.
	One of the Keeper's daughters, her thesis is going to be about pharmaceutical and mass shootings.
	And the correlation between the two, I'm like, I have an interesting resource you may want to check out.
	Yeah.
	Did she come up with this idea on her own?
	Yes.
	Did she ever listen to the show?
	Well, she has listened to the show, but this is for her poli-sci.
	Okay.
	This is definitely a top-notch idea.
	Yeah.
	And I say, well, I'm going to show you this little search engine we have.
	All you have to do is look for big pharma.
	You're likely to find stuff going back to, I don't know, 19...
	Or a decade.
	Yeah, almost a...
	Well, not quite.
	Almost a decade.
	Five years for sure.
	Anyway, we want to just stop and take a little breather here, and of course, thanks, Sir Ramsey, for the work that he's done so far, and remind you that the value-for-value model is still in full effect after 10 years.
	Right, and we're going to make sure everyone who contributes to this show, or the show 200X, which we just played on Thursday, that you'll all be mentioned on the next show, I guess the next Thursday show, when we're back in town.
	We'll be back in full effect, and we take it all the way up.
	Do we go all the way through to the new year?
	I guess so, except for Christmas, maybe.
	I think, yeah, maybe.
	I think you do do it.
	Does a show fall on Christmas or Christmas Eve?
	Yeah, Christmas Eve.
	We might take that off.
	Okay.
	It's been a long year already.
	Yeah, dvorak.org slash NA. That would help.
	Also, the newsletter, if you had a copy.
	And I want to mention a couple of things.
	In our last show, I noticed this.
	We did take questions on the last show.
	The people who got to ask the questions were the newsletter subscribers because a lot of people that don't subscribe, they don't pay that much attention, they don't care.
	But the one question that never came up is the origins of the intro theme that you just played, which is kind of a Beatles clone, the No Agenda Donation theme.
	I thought we did discuss it.
	It's Dave Fox, and I think it was Young Paulette who put that together.
	You mean the opening thing?
	No, the opening of the donation segment.
	Oh, that's Jeff Smith.
	No, that was Jeff.
	Jeff Smith?
	Oh, yeah.
	Oh, yeah.
	He made that one very early on.
	Yes, it was very early.
	Then he gave up on us.
	He's man overboard.
	No, he's not.
	He sent a jingle just recently, the Algos jingle.
	No, he's not man.
	He's saving children in Africa.
	How many times do I have to tell you?
	Anyway, the value for value model works on a non-commercial basis.
	So that we don't have to have meetings mainly with advertising.
	Yes, no meetings.
	But also we can be free to speak our minds and deconstruct at will something that is...
	Certainly you could not do a deconstruction of big pharma and mass shootings.
	No, you'd be fired.
	Fired the next day when you go on the air.
	Would you like to come into the office a little earlier today just so we could discuss it?
	So that's why we need you to think about what value you receive from the show and then return it in kind at Dvorak.org slash NA. And get ready, we're going back to part two of Ramsey Cain's formula.
	Our formula is this.
	We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
	Water. Order.
	Shut up, play.
	Bye.
	Shut up, Steve.
	Oh, man.
	Someone did send me a cool note about the Trump.
	you Have you ever heard of the Trump?
	Yeah, the Donald?
	No, Trump, that's T-R-O-M-P-E. Oh, the Trump.
	Are you familiar with this?
	I've heard of it.
	The Trump is a water-powered compressor.
	Right.
	And it's technology from like the 1600s.
	Right.
	They still use this technology in parts of Washington.
	Yeah, well, apparently it's gaining a resurgence.
	and what people are now finding out what they're doing is that so essentially it's a series of tubes and you and you take some water and you just as long as you have a constant supply of water from a stream or something like that it's two tubes and the water goes into one tube and then the bubbles go into another tube it compresses and then it then it poops it out and then it sucks in new water and it becomes kind of a an energy source And people are now hooking this up to air compressor generators and
	are subsequently able to power stuff.
	I'm like, this is from the 1600s?
	Yeah, they were pretty bright back then.
	It's really phenomenal.
	There's a lot of stuff with hydraulics that could be used to store energy.
	I mean, the thing they use in Washington is they get the generators that are going at a constant speed, and when they don't really have any reason to be throwing out the energy, they throw in these pumps, and then they push the water up the hill, and it's stored up there, and then when they're short of energy, the water comes down, and it powers the generators.
	It's a very crazy thing.
	Well, it's fascinating.
	I mean, it's kind of like free energy, as long as you have a water source, which is not available everywhere.
	The water is moving.
	It has energy in it.
	Well, yeah.
	By virtue of its motion.
	Right, but it's not an energy that you don't have to burn anything.
	You don't have to do anything.
	Just capture it in the tube, and then it kind of makes it work.
	Well, you know, dams are a very good source of energy, but they seem to be tearing them down more than building them.
	Yes.
	I don't get it.
	I think you saw this note, but in case you didn't, I wanted to read a little bit of this because I would like more feedback from our global producer pool.
	Anonymous producer, I felt by duty to report on multiple topics of personal expertise in the past.
	That's how it works.
	This is why we are the best podcast in the universe.
	We have the experts and we listen to the experts and don't pretend that we know more.
	We are very modern.
	This is where everything is going.
	We and the audience are one.
	Absolutely.
	That's what people like NPR and PBS don't get.
	I'm currently a slave of the health industry as well as a big foundation.
	I heard you bring up NOAA a few times.
	I feel the need to comment.
	I worked as an oceanographer for a local university a while back.
	NOAA, the National Oceanic Atmospheric Agency?
	Administration?
	was our main competitor and also a valuable resource.
	There's a limited amount of money that is offered every year.
	And these are the people who measure the global warming.
	That's what I should have prefaced this with.
	So NOAA, even though there's questionable or questions about the numbers, have they fudged them, doesn't matter.
	Everyone is all in.
	President, NOAA, you can't argue with NOAA.
	So he continues.
	There's a limited amount of money that is offered every year for oceanographic research.
	And NOAA is earmarked for a lot of it.
	Whatever scraps are left up for grabs to the rest, mostly universities who have a similar agenda, read climate change.
	Many times, NOAA ships are in an area that is of importance to a university lab, and they would let us aboard to perform a parallel test.
	The crew on these ships were frequently totally, I'm reading verbatim, totally fucking nuts.
	Many were career NOAA seamen, pun intended, and would happily kill a new captain or superior to maintain the status quo.
	The crews were often incestuous, literally, or were easily convinced into overtly perverted sexual acts.
	Think U.S. Navy, minus any training or oversight.
	They also had great vessels with world-class chefs and housekeeping crew.
	Unfortunately, the upper management tends to be not so great.
	And he said, you should really look into this.
	And, man, there was a huge scandal a couple of years ago that you and I missed.
	They bought this boat up in the Seattle area.
	I think they paid three quarter million dollars for it.
	And they were having sex parties and having family and friends and using a credit card to fill it up for $40,000 worth of gas.
	This NOAA outfit...
	He says, please look into and ridicule this organization.
	This is where part of the untold trillions of the national budget ends up.
	It's a damn shame.
	Um...
	The first thing they'll tell you when you get on a good research boat is rule number one.
	Oh, that's about a video he sent where the NOAA crew were jumping off the side of the boat and then a shark grabbed onto one of them.
	And, of course, they never should have been off the boat in the first place.
	But if you go back and just look at NOAA party boat, just search on that.
	This is a pretty corrupt organization.
	Sounds like a fun organization.
	Well, yeah.
	I mean, you get to go to these cool places.
	I'm sure they get to go to Paris.
	Sex parties all the time.
	We're in the wrong business.
	No kidding.
	No agenda sex parties.
	That's no good.
	You barely have a meetup.
	Oh, yes, there are.
	Please go to meetup.com slash no agenda.
	Somebody just sent a nasty note in about it.
	I went there and there was nothing.
	Yeah, but I don't think he was looking in the right place.
	There are net tests for the woman.
	Now entering second half of show.
	Well, I have something.
	We haven't really had a crack on second half of show, but I got something really good.
	I think this is pretty awesome.
	So there's this guy who worked at the CIA for many, many years.
	He is dying.
	I think he has emphysema, and he has an operation coming.
	He may live, but he's certainly not expecting to live after what he has gone on record saying.
	He has done an interview, and you can find it on YouTube.
	We have it in the show notes, of course, 512.nashownotes.com or now.nashownotes.com, so you can always get the latest.
	He talks about Area 51 and Which he saw and witnessed and was given a tour of.
	But more importantly, he talks about the president at the time who was so angry that Roswell and Area 51 commanders would not...
	Really would not tell him what he had, would not let anyone on base.
	And here is our formerly anonymous, really whistleblower from the CIA, now talking about his experience and what the president asked him to do.
	Yes.
	They called us in, went into the Oval Office, and President Eisenhower was there and Nixon, and they said, we called the people in from MJ-12, from Area we called the people in from MJ-12, from Area 51 and S-4, but they told us that the government had no jurisdiction but they told us that the government had no jurisdiction over what they were doing.
	So being a general, past general, you didn't tell them to go to hell without any real good reason, you know.
	So he said, I want you and your boss to fly out there.
	I want you to give him a personal message.
	He says, I want you to tell them, whoever is in charge, tell them that...
	They have this week, coming week, to get into Washington and to report to me.
	And if they don't, I'm going to get the First Army from Colorado, and we're going to go over.
	We're going to take the base over.
	I don't care what kind of classified material you got.
	We're going to Rip this thing apart.
	Eisenhower was going to invade Area 51.
	Yeah, with the First Army.
	So, the guy has my attention with this.
	And I'm pretty confident he's legit.
	I don't know if his story is true, but you know me.
	I'm very prone to believing this.
	It's a good story.
	So, would you like to hear his little story about what he saw at Area 51?
	Yeah.
	Nah, I think we got other things.
	I got a couple of clips from Extra and the OMG show.
	Shut up.
	Here we go.
	You fly out.
	You land.
	What happens?
	Can you describe this whole process?
	What you saw?
	It took us the 13 or 15 miles south of the S4 had like different garage door openings.
	And in these garage door openings they had like different saucer crafts.
	The very first one had Roswell Craft.
	It was kind of crashed up, but apparently every alien that was in it died except for a couple.
	So you see the Roswell Craft and what are some of the others that you see?
	Well, the Roswell craft was really strange because it looked like real heavy aluminum foil.
	We could rock next to it and you could rock it.
	The whole thing probably weighed 150, 300 pounds.
	Could they tell what the source of power was of this craft?
	Yeah, it was like a river's gravitational thing of some kind.
	In fact, one later on, I got the...
	The mathematical code for recursion gravity in a 3x5 card.
	What do you think?
	Well, here we go again.
	As soon as the anti-gravity thing comes up, my antennas go up because every other guy has got this formula.
	I want the formula.
	And yet we see nothing.
	I want the index card.
	It's on a 3x5.
	Yeah, I guess it must be a very short formula.
	Well, it's like E equals MC squared.
	It's not a big, massive formula.
	It's very simple.
	You know what's so upsetting to me?
	We're now in our sixth year of this program.
	People, I encourage you, go back and listen to the first couple of episodes.
	You'll hear that John was like, ah, New World Order bullcrap.
	Ah, that's not to occur.
	You're crazy.
	Oh, what are you talking about?
	So you've really way come over to my side on a lot of this stuff.
	No, I haven't.
	Big time.
	I'm nothing.
	Oh, what?
	You used to be nuts.
	I didn't.
	You had a car that got gas mileage from water, and you were going to meet an alien who never showed up.
	I mean, come on!
	Yeah, but here's the thing.
	On the alien stuff, I'm really...
	I can't believe it anymore.
	I mean, I just...
	So there's a couple things.
	The thing I didn't play in this, he was on the...
	The Blue Book team.
	So I was like, okay, that's already code for, like, Project Blue Beam.
	And he mentions in this briefly the alien autopsy.
	Like, that was what the CIA was watching.
	Like, nah.
	And, you know, I'm like, okay.
	This now, I think it's bullcrap.
	But it's very well done.
	Well, just imagine yourself, you know, you're a CIA guy.
	You're on your deathbed.
	And you think, well, you know, I've never really played a really great gag.
	Wait a minute.
	I could swap Brolf Blitzer or...
	Or...
	I know what I'll do.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, good point.
	Good point.
	But I'm disappointed because I can't get excited about it anymore.
	I mean, you know me.
	I'm totally into...
	The idea that there's an energy that has been withheld from us.
	I look at a lot of the work that Tesla did and think, why did they have to go burn all his books and his research?
	Why?
	It's kind of, in a way, there are so many questions that are unanswered that...
	I'm going to die searching for that.
	I don't know.
	Well, they burned all that Wilhelm Reich stuff, too, you know.
	Yeah.
	The Oregon Energy guy.
	Oregon Energy, yeah.
	Well, that's because it was basically, he was doing porn.
	Actually, I have a couple of his publications that were saved, because there was a lot that got out.
	Wait a minute, like a real document?
	His real thing that he was concerned about, he believed that aliens had already invaded, but they're in a different time frame, and they started a process called desertification.
	Hmm.
	planet to have one giant desert get rid of all these humans and you could do i don't know hydroponics you start over again yeah sure yeah you start over again there was no uh reason for it but but the one thing he points out and i do see this once every time i see it i go oh that's interesting he and he has he would he would go into like uh some place that is in the middle of nowhere
	uh dry a desert area and find like an old um uh building or structure of some sort and notice is that especially if they're made out of stone or bricks or something, He would notice this black, like a black mold or a black fungus in an area where there's really nothing else living.
	And it was on top of these buildings.
	So it would be like dirt where there was no dirt.
	In other words, it would be on top.
	You see this black.
	You see it in a lot of photos.
	It's just kind of a black goo.
	It's like soot on top of that's covering parts of the place where it lands.
	And that is, he believes, is part of the – that stuff, whatever it is, eats into the structure and just destroys and turns it into sand.
	Uh-huh.
	That was his theory.
	I don't know.
	He just never talked about it again.
	But I've always kind of monitored the growth of the deserts.
	We'll take a little break here for another episode of Guess the Movie.
	Oh, and we still don't...
	Do we ever get a jingle for that?
	No, by the time we get a jingle, we'll stop doing it.
	But this is a movie that they played recently, and I recorded it on the DVR because I haven't seen it for years.
	It's impossible to watch in one setting, but it's one of the greatest movies ever made, in my opinion.
	And here is a little clip from it.
	See if you can guess it.
	Mary tells me you're a very nice fellow.
	What do you do?
	Uh-oh, I'm on vacation now.
	What did you do?
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	Well, I work at LaPelle's factory.
	I'm a printer.
	Henry's very clever at printing.
	Yes, he sounds very clever.
	I happen to know this one because it's old enough for me to remember.
	This is, of course, Blazing Saddles.
	No!
	No?
	Oh, I was so sure I was right.
	How about Citizen Kane?
	No?
	No.
	I really don't know.
	This is the classic, and I recommend it to everyone, all the listeners, all the producers, and all the men and women on the ships on the ground and boots in the air.
	Eraserhead.
	David Lynch's classic.
	Wow.
	I don't remember the donkey.
	No, that was the girl who apparently just has fits randomly, having a fit.
	And she's cured from her fit when her mother brushes her hair.
	This has been so long that I saw Eraserhead.
	Hellraiser?
	Eraserhead?
	Eraserhead.
	I don't think I've ever seen Eraserhead.
	David Lynch.
	I don't think I've seen it.
	You would enjoy it.
	I'm sure I would.
	You and Mickey both.
	There's so many movies I want to see.
	Oh no, I'm telling you right now, you and Mickey should sit down some Friday night and just have a good time watching Eraserhead.
	Don't laugh.
	Why are you laughing?
	Shut up.
	So they should have two courses instead.
	They should just close down all the non-charter schools and then like college prep, which is all the charter school kids, they should have prison prep.
	Yes.
	And they should just put the kids into a...
	That's where you're headed.
	...a prison because they're going to go straight to...
	The Corrections Corporation of America, partly owned by Bill Gates and the Melissa Gates Foundation.
	And really, these people, they're getting the experience.
	They know how to run schools because they invest in the Corrections Corporation of America.
	They know how to run this thing.
	Yeah, so you have these prison prep schools and then you put the kids in there and you show them how to stand in line to get food and how to bang on the bars and how to drink from a tin cup.
	How to write a book on a grain of rice.
	How to make a shiv.
	Wait a minute.
	What do you call it?
	Prison prep schools?
	Is that what you call it?
	Prison prep.
	Is it just called prison prep or do you want us to call it school?
	Yeah, just like college prep.
	Prison...
	Because they're obviously going straight to prison because they've already been pushed aside for the other kids and you might as well just get them ready.
	I don't want to go to prison.
	Shut up.
	You learn how to do tattoos?
	Yeah.
	Hey, prisonprep.com is already taken.
	Well, screw that.
	Maybe we should do prisonprepschools.com.
	Don't you think that would be at least worth something?
	Might be.
	Because it's going to happen.
	How to get your kid ready for prison prep.
	Pre-prison prep.
	Yeah, you have to have the early, the head start.
	Let me just see who...
	Head start for losers.
	Prisonprep.com.
	Who is using Prisonprep.com?
	Oh, here it is.
	Prisonprep.com, the leading prison prep site on the net.
	Well, hello.
	What?
	Oh.
	Prisonprep for what?
	Okay.
	Click here to buy prison.
	No, no, no, no.
	It's a parking page.
	But it's a good parking page.
	It has a little justice hammer there.
	Interesting.
	You can buy it.
	Yeah, screw that.
	I'm not going to buy that from you.
	No, we're not buying anything.
	We're not buying anything.
	Well, prison prep.
	What else?
	I like that.
	And also learn how to bang your utensils on the bench.
	Yeah, bang, bang, bang.
	We have to call the prison guards.
	Screw!
	Hey, screw!
	Everyone gets to wear a name tag named Bubba.
	You get to wear a prison outfit, which is, gosh, fun.
	You get a number.
	And you get to pick up litter.
	There's a lot to do.
	With a blunt stick?
	Yeah.
	That's great.
	That's where the charter schools are headed.
	And let's just get out the middle, man, and just close the other schools.
	Put them straight through.
	Yeah, put them straight through.
	I think you're on to something.
	Yeah, I think so.
	London, Dateline.
	Agents for Britain's MI5 Intelligence Service have discovered Muslim doctors trained at some of Britain's leading teaching hospitals have returned to their own countries to fit surgical implants filled with explosives.
	That's being blogged as soon as the show's over.
	Women suicide bombers recruited by Al-Qaeda are known to have had the explosives inserted in their breasts under techniques similar to breast-enhancing surgery.
	The lethal explosives, usually PETN, of course, never heard of this before, are inserted during the operation inside the plastic shapes.
	The breast is then sewn up.
	Similar surgery has been performed on male suicide bombers.
	In their cases, the explosives are inserted in the appendix area or in the buttock.
	Both are parts of the body that diabetics use to inject themselves with their prescribed drugs.
	So, of course, you'll have your insulin injection, which, of course, really contains the ignition device, and you'll be on the plane, and you'll jam it in your ass and blow it all sky high!
	So I guess now when you say, hey, that babe's got dynamite boobs, you ain't kidding.
	See, you need no drummers and thing there for me.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Speaking of TSA, I was meaning, I have been holding on to this.
	So TSA is all over.
	Do you ever read...
	I mean, I subscribe to the blogger Bob, TSA's blogger Bob.
	Do you ever...
	I look at it once in a while.
	It's so lame, I gave up.
	Travel tips...
	He's the apologist, that guy, right?
	Yeah, there's another anti-TSA blogger out there that's pretty good.
	Yeah, but this is the TSA.gov blog.
	Yeah, I know, and it's horrible.
	Travel tips for football fans going to Super Bowl XLV11. Let me see, what is that?
	Super Bowl...
	47.
	47.
	Why don't they just say 47?
	Why does it have to be Greek?
	Is that to make it like more...
	That's Roman.
	That's what I mean.
	Why is it supposed to be Roman?
	Like it's games?
	Like we're throwing Christians to the lions?
	Hello!
	Okay, thanks.
	Just wanted to check.
	Okay.
	Things you may want to bring on the plane, but can't.
	This is uppercase.
	Air horns are prohibited in both carry-on and checked baggage.
	In checked baggage.
	Why?
	It's a compressed can of air which is prohibited.
	Can you imagine the reaction from passengers if one of those things went off in the cabin?
	Concealment flasks.
	We've all seen them.
	Binocular flasks, beer bellies, cell phone flasks, cane flasks, pen flasks, flip-flop flasks, you name it.
	You may be able to sneak these into concerts and sporting events, but we'll find them at the airport.
	Please get your libations in New Orleans if you're not going to check them in your baggage.
	So you can't, it can be empty, but you cannot have an empty flask.
	You can, however, have a 3.4 ounce or less bottles of approved liquids in a baggie.
	And why can't you say bag?
	Why is it to be baggie?
	Because that reminds me of a doggy baggie.
	What am I, a dog?
	Am I your bitch, TSA? Baltimore Ravens fans, if you're traveling with a live raven, please alert your airline and check out our page on traveling with pets.
	Who the hell is going to be traveling with a live raven?
	He's trying to be funny.
	He's trying to be funny.
	Blogger Bob is trying to be funny.
	Oh, Blogger Bob's hilarious.
	So anyway, Super Bowl fans may encounter TSA Visible Intermodal Prevention and Response, Viper, teams, at local transportation venues, including commercial and general aviation facilities.
	So when you're in your private plane, you're going to get on your own plane.
	You're going to have to go through an x-ray scanner.
	And mass transit.
	Teams augment other federal, state, and local transportation and law enforcement to reduce potential terrorist risks to the traveling public.
	TSA assets will also work with law enforcement at Mercedes-Benz Superdome during the high-profile game.
	High-profile.
	My terrorists like high-profile places.
	Fans are encouraged to report potentially dangerous situations to law enforcement or someone in authority.
	The Department of Homeland Security's If You See Something, Say Something campaign reminds the American public that security is a shared responsibility, just like your shared responsibility payment for health care.
	If you see something, say something.
	Use with permission of the New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority.
	Ah!
	If you see something, say something.
	And here is what it sounds like when you're at the train station as recorded by a no-agenda producer.
	Passengers are required to have valid identification at all times.
	Have valid identification at all times in the train.
	Why?
	Because.
	Shut up, slave.
	You don't ask questions.
	Listen to the whole thing.
	Passengers are required to have valid identification at all times.
	Randomly selected passengers with baggage, handbags, backpacks, or other personal items may be inspected.
	In addition, you may notice Amtrak police canine teams in the station.
	The dogs are trained to take specific materials on your person and around you.
	Please do not approach or pet police dogs.
	For your safety and security, remember to be aware of your surroundings and keep personal items in close proximity.
	If you observe suspicious activity or unintended luggage, notify Amtrak police or station personnel or call 1-800-331-0008.
	Remember, see something, say something.
	Thank you and be safe.
	Are they blowing up train stations?
	When did that happen?
	Was some trains being derailed by terrorists?
	When did that happen?
	When were trains being attacked or even retargeted or even talked about?
	In Madrid.
	Two thousand...
	Ten years ago.
	Yeah.
	But I love the whole Orwellian...
	Be safe, citizen.
	Do not approach the canine team.
	Do not pet the dog.
	Do not approach the dog.
	You may be randomly selected.
	Please travel safely.
	If you see something, say something.
	You must have identification on you at all times.
	Shut the fuck up, slave!
	All right, now I play it.
	Oh, it disgusts me.
	Is this America?
	Is this America, people?
	You need a Soviet Socialist States of America.
	Heil, everybody!
	Jeez.
	Hey, John, doesn't this...
	I guess at a certain point you don't give a crap anymore, do you?
	Are you just done?
	You just don't care anymore?
	No, I'm of the opinion this is hilarious.
	Because you don't need to take the train, maybe.
	Yay!
	I don't know how to use the word so.
	I do have a movie quiz.
	Hold on a second, ladies and gentlemen.
	It's pretty obvious.
	Hold on.
	Where's the...
	I've got to get my jingle here, and then I'll...
	Ah!
	I was still...
	I was still in my whole thing.
	And now it's time for another episode of Guess That Movie.
	All right.
	Okay.
	Whew.
	I have to reset and get set ready.
	Okay.
	Yes, that movie...
	This is actually quite obvious when you hear it.
	It's the game show that Adam sucks at.
	I was using the wires of another person.
	It's astute.
	It's possible, but we have the ringer, the collar.
	Yes, and I took the direction to the police's base on the robes of joyas.
	And... Selena Kyle...
	Here it says that they're about to try several times, according to reports.
	And it's good, but it's a matter of time for it.
	You have to send the police before it comes to the police.
	No, they liked it.
	They liked it too.
	And they weren't what I was looking for.
	What I was looking for?
	I was looking for my hair.
	There was a printer with graffiti in the strong pocket.
	Okay.
	You can guess any time.
	I'd like to hear the whole thing so I can, you know, I can collect my thoughts.
	I'm going to guess the Spanish version of RoboCop.
	Close!
	Ah!
	Dark Knight Rises.
	Ah, I should have known.
	Ah, damn.
	Well, I tried.
	It's time for another episode of Guess That Movie.
	Well, I tried.
	You know, I read Inspire.
	Actually, I've read 1 through 12 now.
	I don't think 13 is out.
	And I'm trying.
	I just can't seem to get radicalized yet.
	Are you radicalized, John?
	You've read a couple of these Inspire magazines, haven't you?
	Actually, I've never even bothered.
	Oh.
	On a lighter note, I have a clip.
	This is from the old Wonder Woman series.
	Wonder Woman versus the Nazis.
	What makes you so strong?
	On Paradise Island, there are only women.
	Because of this pure environment, we are able to develop our minds and our physical skills, unhampered by masculine destructiveness.
	Stop!
	Such information is utter rubbish!
	That reminds me of this clip that I played just before the show started.
	And here we go now.
	Nein, nein, nein, nein!
	Nein, nein, nein, nein!
	I'll have that one linked in the show notes.
	It's pretty good.
	Thank you.
	No entry in the second half is over.
	That's right.
	Now entering second half of show.
	As you know, I do not...
	I'm never afraid to explore areas that could put me into great ridicule.
	Or great danger.
	Great danger, too.
	Um...
	And I have a feeling there may be something, and this is all just speculation and who knows, this flat earth concept that's been going on.
	Well, not again.
	Yeah, it's worth talking about.
	I... And there's two parts to what I want to say.
	So this really is...
	I'm just seeing it everywhere.
	People are sending me lots of information.
	Then there's a number of...
	Not so much that people can prove the Earth is flat, but there are a number of things that are tough to explain that prove the world is not flat.
	It's a sphere or something else.
	Something else.
	Hold on a second.
	You've introduced a new element here.
	Yeah.
	Oblique.
	A block, perhaps?
	Oblique.
	Okay.
	Yeah.
	This is actually Neil deGrasse Tyson says it's oblique.
	He says that the world is a little fatter in the middle and we're kind of like a squashed sphere.
	That's what he says.
	The thing that bothers me is, and I tried to look up the etymology, could not find it.
	I never really even considered any of this, or it was probably not even open if someone sent me an email about Flat Earth.
	But for the past couple of years, it's been this.
	Oops.
	You know that's coming.
	Neither one of those.
	It's neither one of those.
	No, it's this one.
	Nobody has a monopoly on what is a very hard problem.
	But I don't have much patience for anyone who denies that this challenge is real.
	We don't have time for a meeting of the Flat Earth Society.
	Now, this is, I think, the first time in my life I've ever heard that phrase.
	Is this a phrase that you are familiar with?
	It sounds familiar, but I don't...
	But who used this in recent memory?
	The Flat Earth Society?
	Well, saying we don't have time for a meeting of the Flat Earth Society.
	That whole phrase?
	I don't know about the whole phrase.
	But I've heard of Flat Earth Society.
	Right.
	I think it's...
	Why does it come up all of a sudden?
	In fact, Flat Earth people are...
	Maybe it's code.
	Well, I think it's triggering is what it is.
	I don't think Flat Earth people are necessarily against climate change.
	In fact, I've found a lot of evidence to the contrary.
	But here's two questions I have for you.
	Oh, that's an interesting way to go.
	Did you know that most Flat Earthers are all in on climate change?
	Ipso facto.
	Ipso facto?
	Yeah.
	What's...
	That means the answer is obvious now that climate change is bullcrap just like the flat earth is.
	Okay.
	Well, the curvature problem is the one that interests me the most.
	Why are you doing that?
	Well, if you do the calculations, then because of the curvature of the Earth, you should not be able to see a lot of things.
	And the most prominent example that is used is a lighthouse.
	And if you look at the, you know, after six miles or so distance, you should not be able to see a 70-foot lighthouse because the curvature should drop it off more than 100 feet.
	And this is a mathematical problem that is being addressed, but no one seems to be able to explain exactly what's happening and why the rules, as we've been told, are not what we see.
	Well, there's a lot of anomalies, atmospheric anomalies, why you can see the lighthouse when you shouldn't be able to see it over the horizon.
	I mean, this is like those lights you saw in whatever the name of that town is.
	Marfa?
	Marfa.
	You know, that's some screwball anomaly, too.
	I mean, these things happen.
	But consistently, people are trying to make the measurements work based on the circumference of the Earth.
	And the drop that you should have in the curvature of the earth and the numbers just don't work out.
	Maybe the numbers are wrong.
	So the circumference of the Earth numbers are wrong?
	No, whatever numbers we're dealing with.
	These numbers are all pigeonhole numbers.
	I'm sure they're plugging these things down.
	It could be all bogus.
	Have you talked to an actual geologist?
	Who do you want?
	A geophysicist?
	Well, I'm bringing it up.
	You need to go to the university over there and talk to somebody.
	This is the moment of insanity.
	It's not insanity.
	I'm just asking questions in second half of show where it belongs.
	Yes.
	Well, I realize it's in the right part of the show.
	There's no doubt about that.
	But I'm hoping for more space aliens and flying saucer chit-chat as opposed to flat earth chit-chat.
	I think it's more interesting.
	I think there's a lot of people who are questioning, a lot of smart people who are questioning this.
	And I think we have a lot of smart people who can provide us with more information.
	Okay.
	Okay.
	Okay, no, that's good.
	I'm glad you're talking about this and getting it off my chest.
	It's just a simple question.
	Why do none of the calculations of the curvature of the Earth work?
	Why do they not work?
	Now, the second part is...
	Have you ever seen the moon when it comes up over the horizon?
	I'm not going to play the game with you because I don't have the answer.
	I'm talking about the curvature of the earth.
	That's all I have a question about.
	I'm just trying to get some answers because I'd be the first to scoff at people, but I have some very serious mathematical questions, which I'm not good at.
	And you're just saying the numbers are screwy.
	That's not much of an argument.
	Well, I don't know.
	I don't have an argument.
	Because I think this is such a nonsense topic.
	Do you know that there is no plain, just single picture of the Earth from space?
	That these are all composites?
	That NASA's pictures, they admit it, they're all composites of the Earth.
	There does not exist a single picture like the one you always see.
	It is a composite made of many different, even from light data, it's made up.
	It is not a true picture of the Earth.
	NASA says we can't do that, we can't take the picture, it would never look good, so we make a composite which is therefore true.
	Yeah, because if you need a wide angle lens it would be very difficult.
	A wide angle lens from the Moon?
	Well, the moon picture, I don't know what the deal is with that, but it seems sketchy.
	It's just little things like that.
	Alright.
	Is that it?
	I have a suggestion.
	Yeah.
	Theremin.
	Now entering second half of show.
	Leaving.
	Now leaving.
	Now leaving.
	You don't have an exiting.
	I don't have an exit.
	Okay, this is the one.
	This is the Obama in Africa.
	This is the local report about what's going on there.
	And then listen to this.
	Every life matters.
	And that is why this issue is so important.
	Black lives matter.
	You're playing the O'Malley clip.
	I'm so sorry.
	Obama in Africa, local report.
	Yeah, I know exactly what you asked for, and I have no idea how that came out.
	Here we go.
	He's the first sitting US president to visit the country.
	His first full day in Kenya brought a moment of controversy when he was asked about gay rights.
	When you start treating people differently, that's the path.
	Whereby freedoms begin to erode.
	Kenya's president said this is not a view he shares.
	In Kenya gay sex is punishable by up to 14 years in prison.
	This issue is not really an issue that is on the foremost mind of Kenyans.
	The rest of the visit has been smooth in a country where President Obama is considered a native son.
	What does that tell you?
	They know.
	They're happy, they're proud, but just get over it already and let's be happy about it.
	Meanwhile, Obama's aware of this, and so he gives a speech on 39 of Dover, Delaware.
	Private First Class, Mariano M. Ramundo, 21 of Houston, Texas.
	Specialist Ray A. Ramirez, 20 of Sacramento, California.
	Specialist Kyle P. Stokili, 21 of Mostly, Virginia.
	Staff Sergeant Job M. Regu, 30 of Austin, Texas.
	Where's that list?
	These are people who are dying in Afghanistan for no fucking reason.
	That's a list you should read once in a while.
	That's two weeks.
	No.
	Instead, Nancy Pelosi has the gall after that to say this.
	As far as I'm concerned, we've never, ever had a better speaker than Nancy Pelosi.
	Thank you very much, Mr.
	Thank you, Mr. Lester.
	Leader, for your generous introduction, but really, more importantly, for your very strong words of commitment to making sure that we honor our oath of office to protect and defend the American people.
	That is not your oath of office, bitch!
	You don't protect and defend the American people.
	These poor kids, these 20 and 30 year olds, are sent away to pretend to protect some kind of freaking interest over there in Afghanistan and you have the gall to stand there and say that you took that oath of office, which is not your oath at all.
	It is to protect and uphold the Constitution, not to protect the American people.
	You should be ashamed of yourself.
	And of the way you've manipulated all these well-intended mothers and women of America into following your insane agenda just to get more votes.
	Because that is the ugly, vicious truth of what you're really doing.
	Do I get to play it?
	Yeah, you might as well.
	I have a clip for you.
	Now this one here, this is a clip I took...
	This could have been a number of things.
	I could have used this clip earlier in the show to drop it in as though it was Gohmert and Holder talking to somebody.
	Or it could have been an Ask Adam about the movie.
	And I just decided this is probably the greatest dialogue I've ever heard on a film, ever.
	I'm really thinking which one would it be?
	Dialogue is the key word there.
	Sorry.
	I don't see it.
	I'm sorry.
	Dialogue of the decade.
	It should be right after that.
	It's alphabetical.
	I'm sorry.
	Who does that punk Zacharias think he's playing with?
	It doesn't make sense.
	Why would Zacharias hit us?
	Because he's trying to start a war.
	Somebody's knocking up his men, too.
	Man, I don't believe that for one minute.
	You know what I think?
	I think Zacharias did it himself, and he's trying to pin it on us.
	He's playing us for suckers, Jack.
	He wants our territory.
	I don't believe that.
	Because if there's war, he loses as much as we do.
	Oh, come on, Jack.
	Wake up!
	Wow.
	Great stuff.
	Yeah, how come we didn't just do a movie clip of the day?
	I don't know what that is, John.
	Death Wish 4.
	With Charles Bronson.
	Yeah.
	Wow.
	The overacting is just, especially with this character, it's just like, wow.
	Yeah, that's good.
	Anyway.
	I want to take the test real quick with you.
	Don't worry, because based upon your answers, it won't be very long.
	So this is the test that they actually used to come up with this 8% number, which is why I thought it was interesting to take it.
	So I have your age of 61, your gender male.
	What's your zip code?
	Is 94107, is that close enough?
	It's good enough so you can use any...
	Next question.
	Okay.
	Recently you may have noticed that global warming has been getting some attention in the news.
	Global warming refers to the idea.
	This, by the way, is KQED. This is PBS. Oh, our boys over here in San Francisco.
	Yeah, this is your public media online helping them with this bogativeness.
	Okay, global warming refers to the idea that the world's average temperature has been increasing over the past 150 years, may be increasing more in the future, and the world's climate may change as a result.
	What do you think?
	Do you think that global warming is happening?
	Answers, yes, no, don't know.
	I think it is.
	I would put yes on that because I think it's a cycle.
	I'm a cycle guy.
	Yeah, good.
	Because of your last answer, you do not need to answer anything here.
	Please skip ahead to the next question.
	Oh, don't worry.
	Next question.
	Hold on.
	Don't have to do four.
	Okay.
	If global warming is happening, do you think it is, one, caused mostly by human activities, two, caused mostly by natural changes in the environment, three, other, or four, none of the above because global warming isn't happening?
	I would say two.
	Natural changes to the environment.
	Okay, next question.
	How worried are you about global warming?
	Very worried?
	Somewhat worried?
	Not very worried?
	Not at all worried?
	Not at all.
	Not at all worried.
	Okay, here we go.
	Because we're going to determine your category.
	How much do you think global warming will harm you personally?
	A great deal?
	A moderate amount?
	Not at all?
	Don't know.
	What?
	Read those again?
	So how much do you think global warming will harm you personally?
	A great deal, a moderate amount, not at all, or don't know?
	Not at all.
	Not at all.
	Okay.
	When do you think global warming will start to harm people in the United States?
	You see how they're leading you down a path now?
	I've said it's not going to harm me, but it's like the EU having to revolve on it.
	Let's try you again on that question.
	Well, you do have some answers.
	They are being harmed now, in 10 years, 25 years, 50 years, 100 years, or never.
	Well, I would say never, but I could also say they're being harmed now by the propaganda.
	Yeah, but you know that's not the right answer.
	So we'll say never.
	No, it's specifically global warming, not the global warming propaganda.
	That would be a derivative of the global warming.
	We'll go to the next question.
	How much do you think global warming will harm future generations of people?
	See, you can't get out.
	How many times do I have to answer the same question?
	Okay, a great deal, a moderate amount, not at all, or don't know?
	Not at all, I would presume, right?
	That's fine.
	I don't know either one.
	Okay.
	How much had you thought about global warming before today?
	A lot, some, a little, or not at all?
	Not at all.
	Well, no, a some.
	Some.
	Because we talked about it.
	Yeah, we talked about it.
	That's what I answered, too.
	How important is the issue of global warming to you personally?
	Extremely important?
	Very important?
	Somewhat important?
	Not too important?
	Not at all important?
	Well, because we discuss it so much on the show, it's somewhat important.
	I answered this the same way.
	I answered it honestly.
	I could easily change my mind about global warming.
	Strongly agree, somewhat agree, somewhat disagree, strongly disagree.
	Easily is the operative word there.
	Yes.
	The operative adverb, I think.
	I would say, read them again.
	Strongly agree, somewhat agree, somewhat disagree, strongly disagree.
	I don't know.
	I somewhat disagree.
	We're almost done.
	How many of your friends share your views on global warming?
	None.
	A few.
	Some.
	Most.
	Or all.
	Some?
	Are you sure it's not a few?
	What's the difference between some and a few?
	I think it's more a few than some.
	You're in Berkeley.
	What are you talking about?
	Yeah, I'm in the right...
	If I was in Kansas City...
	Who's calling me?
	Go away, you crazy...
	Which of the following statements comes closest to your view?
	This is a big one.
	Global warming isn't happening.
	Humans can't reduce global warming, even if it is happening.
	Humans could reduce global warming, but people aren't willing to change their behavior, so they're not going to.
	Humans could reduce global warming, but it's unclear at this point whether we will do what's needed.
	Or humans could reduce global warming, and we're going to do so successfully.
	I would have that second answer.
	Humans can't do crap.
	Okay, even if it's happening?
	Okay, good.
	Got it.
	Do you think citizens themselves should be doing more or less to address global warming?
	Much more, more, doing the right amount, less or much less?
	This is also a trick question.
	I would say less.
	Less.
	Okay.
	I wonder what category you're going to be, and we're about to find out.
	Over the past 12 months, how many times have you punished companies that were opposing steps to reduce global warming by not buying their products?
	Oh, that is disgusting.
	So you can say never once, a few times, several times, many times, or don't know.
	Isn't that a horrible question?
	Actually, why don't they ask the opposite question?
	How many times do you punish companies that promote the global warmest agenda?
	Is that on there?
	Let me see.
	Is that question on there?
	Let me see.
	Do you think global warming should be a low, medium, high, or very high priority for the President and Congress?
	Low.
	Low.
	And the final question.
	People disagree whether the United States should reduce greenhouse gas emissions on its own or make reductions only if other countries do, too.
	Which of the following statements comes closest to your own point of view?
	The United States should reduce its greenhouse gas emissions, regardless of what other countries do, only if other industrialized countries, such as England, Germany, and Japan, reduce their emissions, only if other industrialized countries, developing countries, such as China, India, and Brazil, reduce their emissions, not at all, or don't know.
	Well, it doesn't hurt.
	But I'd say not at all insofar as that question is concerned.
	Okay, not at all.
	And here we go.
	Your climate profile.
	Guess what?
	What?
	John C. Dvorak!
	You are a dismissive!
	How can I be a dismissive?
	That's right.
	Would you like to know what this means?
	Because if I'm a dismissive, those earlier questions that I answered ambiguously are invalid.
	They don't account for anything.
	In the United States, the dismissives are mostly white, male, conservative, and Republican.
	They are politically active, strongly religious, and the group most likely identify themselves as born-again or evangelical Christians.
	Oh, what a crock that is.
	That doesn't apply to me in the least.
	It's all right.
	I'm the same.
	What?
	You came out as a dismissive?
	Duh.
	Amen, my brother.
	I can tell you what the answer should be for a dismissive.
	I think it's all bullshit.
	People in the dismissive group believe that global warming is not happening.
	And if it is, it is caused by natural changes in the environment.
	Most believe there is a lot of scientific disagreement about the issue.
	Let me just say something about this.
	Consensus is not science.
	Science is not consensus.
	Science is empirical facts with repeatable processes.
	Not a model that predicts something like, you know, the children of Britain will never see snow except in a snow globe.
	Okay?
	Science is not consensus.
	Am I wrong about this, John?
	No, it has to be repeatable and observable.
	In fact, we have it in the show notes.
	We had one of our listeners, oh, you guys are idiots for thinking that the world's not coming to an end.
	And he went on about it.
	I found it very insulting because of the way he phrased it.
	But then again, email is naturally insulting.
	I could be wrong.
	But I blew up.
	Yeah, you did.
	That was funny.
	Yeah, I know.
	You get the biggest kick when I do that.
	I do it about once a month, I get on some poor guy's case.
	But there is an upside to all this.
	But let me finish.
	The one thing that...
	We have in the show notes is the guy who went out and actually checked the tides.
	He says, you can talk all you want about these computer models.
	And by the way, we had a big fiasco recently about computer models and the world's economies because somebody had the wrong formula in an Excel spreadsheet.
	This happens all the time.
	Yeah.
	Or how about, remember the volcanic ash that erupted?
	It was going to, all airplanes had to stop.
	No flying!
	We had to stop flying because planes are going to be crashing everywhere.
	It was the most beautiful flying weather ever.
	Remember that?
	We had pilots emailing me.
	Like, this is crazy.
	It's fantastic here.
	Because they predicted where the cloud was going and they were wrong!
	Yeah, they can't even predict that.
	And so we have these problems.
	And so the guy goes out and measures all the ties that are supposed to have gone up and down and the rest.
	And he finds a lot of them are gone down.
	Yeah.
	And the title differences.
	And he doesn't see it.
	He says, I went out and looked.
	I went from, you know, he's a big shot in this.
	He goes around the world.
	And he says, I've not seen anything that they're talking about.
	There's no evidence.
	Beautiful.
	Oh, yum.
	Attention all human resources.
	Now entering the second half of the show.
	This is where I thought you were going, John, as you announced the second half of the show.
	And there's only one clip that needs to be played for this second half of the show.
	The mother of a missing Oxnard woman, Dawn Van Bunker, believes that her daughter is in the middle of a mysterious death investigation tonight and may be having a mental breakdown.
	This past week, police found a man's decomposing body in an SUV parked in the Palisades.
	And, at a townhouse down the street, they found hundreds of guns and tons of ammunition.
	Well, it turns out that the dead man's fiancée, Catherine Nebron, is Dawn Vadbunker's boss, and the two women were with the man when he died.
	But they never reported the death, because they believed he was a secret agent, but with a twist.
	He was part alien and part human.
	Nice.
	And he was out to save the world.
	And he was higher than the CIA. And that every time we were there, that we were being watched.
	And the women apparently believe that alien or CIA operatives would collect the man's body while they went to Oregon.
	There was craziness that was totally nuts.
	Harlan Braun is the fiancé's attorney and is shocked by what was discovered at the Palisades' home.
	We found guns.
	We found stuff that could be used for snipers.
	There are cars that were modified for desert travel.
	He could have been working for anyone.
	It's hard to imagine, however, that it's a total figment of his imagination because there was so much money involved.
	There's almost $5 million worth of guns that were taken by the police.
	The police also uncovered six and a half tons of ammunition at one condo in the Palisades.
	Laura Van Bunker isn't quite sure why her daughter believes the alien secret agent story, but she wants her to come home now and get some help.
	It's a great story.
	That's a great story.
	Where'd you pick that up from?
	Has been around.
	Probably tweeted to me 20 times.
	Yeah.
	And, you know, what can I say other than makes total sense to me?
	Yeah, I'm all in on that.
	And now it's time for another episode of Guess That Movie.
	However, I want you to guess my movie, John.
	I'm turning the tables.
	Oh, that's a good one.
	You turned the tables on me.
	I didn't expect that.
	Well, you can believe Mr.
	Pecker.
	My name is Peck.
	Or you could accept the fact that this city is headed for a disaster of biblical proportion.
	What do you mean, biblical?
	What he means is Old Testament, Mr.
	Mayor.
	Real Wrath of God type stuff.
	Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies.
	Rivers and seas boiling.
	Forty years of darkness.
	Earthquakes, volcanoes.
	The dead rising from the grave.
	Human sacrifice.
	Dogs and cats living together.
	Mass hysteria.
	Enough!
	I get the point.
	But what if you're wrong?
	If I'm wrong, nothing happens.
	We go to jail peacefully, quietly.
	We'll enjoy it.
	But if I'm right, and we can stop this thing, Lenny, you will have saved the lives of millions of registered voters.
	Yeah, Ghostbusters.
	Oh, very good.
	Very good.
	Come on, he's talking to me.
	You've got to come up with better stuff than that.
	Well, I thought it would fit in nicely with the cli-fi.
	Totally.
	Well, that was a dystopian situation.
	Yes.
	Okay, well, now you've got to play my clip and you've got to tell me.
	This is, I think, more...
	This is a dystopia.
	Wait, wait.
	This is a dystopia era.
	But it has all these nice memes that I like.
	Maybe I should have you killed.
	Who's going to complain?
	You always violate people's constitutional rights...
	This is my jail, Kersi.
	And I'm the law.
	That means I get to violate your constitutional rights.
	Son of a bitch!
	And now it's time for another episode of Guess That...
	Was that, um...
	Revenge of the Goonies?
	Death Wish 3.
	It's always Death Wish 3.
	No, it also was Death Wish 4.
	Huge difference.
	Yeah, I can understand.
	I'm sorry.
	It reminds me, the other thing that bugs me, in Berkeley, nobody knows how to make a left turn in a big intersection.
	You know, when you say you have a left turn lane and there's a bunch of people behind you, normally what a normal driver who knows what he or she is doing, you push yourself halfway into the intersection, especially in a crowded situation, the light turns yellow.
	You and the guy behind you and the guy behind you can all make the turn.
	Pop through, yeah.
	But do that.
	They stay at the line.
	Way back...
	That's actually illegal.
	That is the California law you're supposed to pull forward.
	I don't think you're allowed to stay at the line.
	No, no.
	I don't know that that is...
	I don't believe it is illegal.
	But they stay at the line, and then when the light turns, you know, yellow to red, they shoot out and make the turn, and everyone's stuck.
	It screws up all the traffic, and you behind them don't get to go.
	Oh, it's just annoying.
	Yeah.
	All right, well, I'll hit it for that.
	Home automation is so important.
	I don't know how people can't get by.
	I don't know how they get by before home automation.
	Your home must be totally automated.
	God knows when you leave for the office and you're, oh, I forgot to turn off the kitchen light.
	Here's how it works.
	Here's how it works.
	Mickey says to me, honey, can you turn on the back light before we leave?
	Sure, honey, I'll automate that.
	And I literally stick a plug into an outside socket.
	I'm not kidding.
	And then sometimes when we come home and it's all pretty and the lights are on, I'll say, gee, someone cares.
	And that's it.
	That's our auto.
	I usually forget the front porch light.
	But home automation, this has been going, remember X10? This is how it all started.
	No, I remember home automation in the 70s.
	What was that with strings and pulleys?
	No, I'm telling you, the X10 thing is predated by other crazy ideas that never went anywhere.
	When X10 came around, it was like, that's it.
	Finally, we standardized this.
	That's it, standardized.
	And you had these big, ugly things you had to plug in everywhere.
	Oh, yeah, a big clunker.
	So I put an X10 system in my mom's house.
	Uh-huh.
	Maybe she would...
	John, hello?
	Can you come in and take this stuff out?
	I can't figure out how to use it.
	Take this stuff out.
	You push the button and it turns it on.
	No, no, no.
	How you mock the dead.
	That's crazy.
	This is exactly what she said.
	Same thing with a microwave.
	Hold on.
	I've got to listen to the rest of this woman.
	Alright, so this is from a father, as in a religious father, and I'm not sure if I can mention his name, so I won't.
	In the morning, Adam, here's another story about training drills at schools with a little different spin.
	I'm the pastor of a small parochial school in a town of about 10,000 people.
	After Sandy Hook, because parents and staff were freaking out about school safety, we called the local police department to send a liaison to do a walkthrough of our facility.
	After the walkthrough, the liaison recommended that we invite the county's tactical response team, their version of SWAT, to provide training for our staff.
	This is great stuff, by the way.
	This is fantastic.
	During a teacher in service day when there were no students at the school, the TRT, the Tactical Response Team, came to train our teachers.
	While I was expecting a morning of being told to hide in the corner of a classroom if an armed assailant entered the school, it was a bit of a surprise when we learned that the TRT wasn't there to train the school staff.
	No, they were there to run drills themselves.
	They had 9mm Glocks and AR-15s set up to shoot paint-filled gas cartridges at each other.
	They were happy to have the floor plan of our school to add to their database and spent the morning shooting at each other and the walls and the hallways of the school with paintballs.
	The three scenarios that they set up were a random bad guy taking a class hostage, an angry parent taking a class hostage, and a U-M-Bomber-like lookalike wearing an IED... Again, taking a class hostage.
	It seems that the proper response to each threat was to scream at the assailant and then light him up with paintballs.
	Father, you're great.
	Except the IED-wearing perpetrator.
	Once the IED was identified, which in this case was a piece of cardboard with the word BOM written on it taped to his chest, they were just supposed to shoot him until he dropped.
	The best part was when they asked if I wanted to run through the scenarios.
	Not wanting to miss the opportunity to shoot off-duty police officers with paintballs, I gladly accepted.
	Yes, a man of the cloth.
	When the training was over, the officers swept up the empty gas cartridges and did their best to wash up the paint-filled walls.
	The next day, when the students were back in class, they discovered a few random paint splatters that were missed in the cleanup.
	When one of the students asked a teacher about the splatter, what else could she say other than, the paint is there to keep you safe?
	I will say, because this is a small town, I know a few of the officers and they're good guys.
	It's just unfortunate law enforcement training has turned into combat training, a fact you and John talk about regularly and hopefully is appreciated by your listeners.
	Yeah, the militarization of the local police.
	It's a military state, so let's make the cops part of the military.
	Exactly.
	They dressed like it.
	They wore the armor.
	They hold that gun in that funny position, that funny, crazy position.
	Yep.
	And they got automatic weapons and the whole thing.
	Yeah.
	Why does little towns even need a SWAT team?
	It's crazy.
	And I want to bring something else up, since we're talking about this sort of thing, these primaries.
	Who pays for these elections?
	Who pays when you have a primary in California?
	Who's paying the bill on printing the ballots?
	Corporations?
	The taxpayers.
	Oh.
	What do you mean the corporation?
	I'm just guessing.
	They're free of this.
	Do you know what it costs on average to do a primary or general election in terms of what it costs per voter?
	No.
	To put it on?
	Mm-mm.
	Between $10 and $17.
	Dang.
	A person.
	Dang.
	Dang.
	Now, so here's what got to me.
	The fact that South Carolina Republicans, or even the California Republicans who won't let you vote just in an open ballot, are bossing around the electoral people that have the money to put these elections on.
	So in other words, the California taxpayer or the South Carolina taxpayer...
	Is paying for the primaries of the Republicans and the Democrats when it's their little piece of business.
	It's not the national election that I can see.
	Okay, the states can pay for that because it's important.
	You're actually electing people.
	You're not electing anybody in these primaries.
	All you're doing is just saying, okay, I like this guy or I like that guy at the expense of the taxpayer.
	They should go.
	Iowa and some other states say, screw this.
	We're not going to spend this kind of money on these stupid things that these parties want.
	It's their business.
	Let them do their own thing.
	They have caucuses, and then they have their state convention.
	And the convention, like the national convention, chooses the guy who's going to run for their state.
	Right, right.
	So that doesn't cost the taxpayers anything.
	This entire taxpayer thing is an outrageous scam and what galls me about it is that South Carolina makes the candidate jump through hoops while the taxpayers pay picking up the tab for the whole thing.
	These things should be banned or the party should pay for them.
	The taxpayers should not pay for them.
	The only reason that they've even existed is because during the 50s and 60s there used to be a lot of publicity about, oh, these guys are being chosen in cigar smoke-filled rooms.
	And I remember that when I was a kid because there was a big complaint about these conventions choosing the candidates and the public should choose.
	Of course, the only benefit of anybody for the public to choose, and they're not even interested in voting in primaries, is that the media, again, gets to pick up a lot of free, you know, a lot of Advertising for their bottom line.
	So let's make these primaries and then stick the taxpayers.
	The media should be paying for these damn primaries.
	They're getting all the money out of it.
	The taxpayers are getting screwed.
	I thought you were over.
	Ten bucks a head, which is low, by the way.
	Well, tens of millions of dollars go to these primaries.
	It comes right out of the taxpayers' coffers during a depression.
	This is ridiculous.
	All right, maybe we should hit everyone with a little bit of...
	And now, back to real news.
	Dateline, Vancouver.
	Emergency shipment of 100,000 condoms sent to the Olympians in Vancouver.
	They were running low on rubbers.
	What are they doing over there?
	Now I know why people are willing to go compete in Olympic Games for no money.
	It's because you're getting laid like a crazy person over there.
	100,000 condoms.
	That's 14 per person.
	And by the way, that's 14 for every man and woman.
	You only need one for the two of yous.
	You know, you're getting late every single day at this rate.
	Or more, more than once.
	When we heard about the condom shortage in Vancouver, we felt it important to respond immediately as he'd carried Whiteside, CanFar's executive director.
	What is CanFar?
	I don't know.
	Let's look it up.
	Of course, why even explain it in the article?
	Oh yeah.
	Why bother?
	Yeah, why bother?
	Assembled three large boxes of about 8,500 condoms, much to the relief of libidos at the Olympic Village.
	They're expected to arrive on Thursday.
	Free condoms first started to be distributed at the Olympics in Barcelona at the 1992 Games.
	What is CANFAR?
	Oh, Canadian Foundation for AIDS Research.
	Hmm.
	Sounds like a PR stunt, actually.
	Yep, yep, yep.
	Totally a PR stunt that you bought.
	Well, no.
	I mean, I called it real news.
	Excuse me.
	I don't want to say I bought into it.
	Okay, I'm just, you know.
	Yeah, I think people should get it.
	Everyone should get a ham license.
	It's not a big deal.
	It's easy enough.
	If they listen to this program, they should.
	Yeah, they should.
	Yeah.
	It's not a big deal.
	It's good to have.
	It's kind of cool in some nerdy way.
	People are always like, I'm a nerd.
	I'm a geek.
	Well, then get your ham license if you're a nerd and a geek.
	Especially some of the women out there who like to call themselves geeky girls.
	Oh, I'm geeky.
	I'm a nerd.
	A lot of actresses do this.
	What's the name of that girl in the Love Miz show?
	She's always like, oh, I'm a geek.
	I'm a geek.
	I play games on the computer.
	I'm a geek.
	Oh, you mean Jolie O'Dell?
	Julie O'Dell.
	She's not an actress.
	Maybe she is.
	No, I'm thinking of Anne Hathaway.
	She claims to be a geek girl.
	Really?
	She's not a geek girl.
	No way.
	But she says.
	You ask her.
	Oh, I'm a geek girl.
	I'm like the computer.
	I'm buzzing her out.
	Molly Wood.
	Molly Wood.
	You should have a ham radio license.
	If Molly Wood doesn't get a ham license, I'm banning her from Twitter.
	You're banning her or you're blocking her.
	Which one?
	Blocking.
	Listen, Ev.
	John Ev Dvorak.
	Mickey should get a license.
	No, she does not claim to be a geek girl at all.
	No, no, no.
	She is not going to get her license.
	No, I think Natalie Del Conte.
	There's another one.
	Oh, Natalie Del Conte must get a license.
	How about Veronica Belmont?
	Absolutely.
	She makes a big deal out of being a geek girl.
	Yep.
	If you don't have your ham license, you are not a geek girl.
	I think we've gone to something here.
	This is 20, ladies and gentlemen.
	We're kind of rolling it out in advance.
	A little heads up on what we're going to be pushing.
	This is the new agenda on the No Agenda Show.
	I have a couple of oddball clips.
	I do have one just a little, because I know you've got a bunch of stuff left, but I do have a little entremant.
	Oh, an entremant.
	That's the little thing the chef has prepared specifically for you to cleanse your palate in between?
	Yes.
	And it comes in a little shot glass.
	Usually, yeah, a shot glass.
	I don't know why they just don't give you a shot of something.
	That'd be great.
	I don't know if you should drink it or you spoon it.
	It depends.
	Usually there's instructions that come with the entremant.
	I always like it.
	Chef has prepared this for you especially?
	No, he hasn't.
	He had a whole fucking thing he did earlier.
	Don't bullshit me with that.
	Yeah, I know.
	I hate that, by the way.
	I always want to throw it in the waiter's face when they lie to me.
	They're lying to me.
	And by the way, I've had a lot of success in Austin with my 142 degrees.
	What temperature would you like your meat, sir?
	142 degrees.
	Huh.
	66 Kelvin.
	You brought this up before I forgot about it.
	I think I'm going to try it.
	Has someone not asked you this yet?
	No, no.
	In the West Coast, they still don't.
	How would you like it done?
	They've not asked.
	What temperature?
	In Los Angeles, they do it.
	Some Texas thing.
	No, it's Los Angeles is where I heard this first.
	Oh, really?
	Yes.
	Well, it hasn't gravitated up here.
	Thank God.
	That's why we gave you the Fukushima Rati radiation.
	If I hear that, I'm going to spit at the guy and throw my napkin down and walk out.
	Okay.
	So I've got a couple.
	I guess just a little break.
	This is the lighter part of the show right here.
	I want you to try...
	What are you talking about?
	I thought the Iraqi, the ISIS army was, the Al-Qaeda army was the light part of the show.
	Yeah, that's really...
	I got a couple quizzes for you.
	Oh, good.
	We love quizzes.
	I got a...
	What is the network?
	This is a show that's about the aliens when they invade and what we're going to do about it and all the rest of it.
	And here's the clip, and I want you to tell me the network that it ran on.
	The theory is logical.
	Probes landed on the moon three years before humans did.
	NASA has sent probes to every planet in the solar system and beyond.
	If the aliens are not biological, the harvesters may not be collecting Earth's organic material for food, but for fuel, processing our planet's life forms into long-lasting processing our planet's life forms into long-lasting biofuel.
	Oh.
	If the invaders are simply drones, that is why they never answered our pleas for peace.
	That's why they display indifference at the destruction of intelligent lifeforms.
	If the aliens are machines, this may offer another tactic.
	In the case of non-biological attackers, there is one final step in the plans to fight the alien invasion.
	Somehow, we've got to get some troops inside the technology to shut the technology down, and a mission like that is definitely going to be high risk.
	The plan is simple, low-tech, and suicidal.
	Next.
	laughs Well, this is an easy one.
	Okay.
	Clearly, this is the Home and Garden Television Network.
	Close.
	I would say the History Channel, probably.
	Well, you know, that would make sense, because most recently they haven't done anything on history, except unless it involves Nazi flying saucer technology.
	Which is always nice.
	So this, no, this is, I think, another fine example of where this country's headed.
	This is the National Geographic Channel.
	Wow, Nat Geo, huh?
	Interesting.
	So instead of actually providing us with any useful information, we're actually doing reports that might have something to do with the National Geographic magazine, or at least the way we used to think of it.
	What happened to naked brown chicks?
	We used to watch for the boobs, get the magazine.
	Hey, man, my parents got National Geographic Magazine.
	There's some naked boobs in there.
	Anyway, so I just thought that was...
	Well, just to give you...
	Okay, since you got that one wrong, I'm going to have to do one more.
	Oh, no!
	Yeah, one more.
	This is What is the Movie?
	Guess the Movie.
	Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
	Hold on, don't we have a jingle for that?
	Yeah, we do.
	Hold on a second.
	Here we go.
	Guess That Movie.
	And now it's time for another episode of Guess That Movie.
	All right, everybody.
	Time for Guess That Movie.
	It's the show where if I get wrong, my nuts get electrocuted.
	This has happened before, thousands of years ago.
	And the ancients were there to see it.
	All the great constructions.
	The Mayans, the Chinese, the Egyptians.
	They made use of the gravitational effects of the convergence.
	And they left us a map.
	Stonehenge.
	Snowden.
	Great Orm.
	These are all coordinates taking us...
	Here.
	Greenwich.
	The walls between worlds will be almost non-existent.
	Physics is going to go ballistic.
	Increases and decreases in gravity, spatial extrusions.
	The very fabric of reality is going to be torn apart.
	I better get my pants.
	Well, this is another obvious one.
	You make it way too easy for me.
	You haven't been right ever.
	Clearly this is Ferris Bueller's day off.
	Or it could be Journey to the Center of the Earth.
	Or Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.
	Yeah.
	That's why this guy got his pants at the end.
	What?
	No, this is Thor The Dark World.
	It's on HBO or TMC or something as we speak.
	I have not seen that.
	Oh, then you're not keeping up.
	By the way, Wag the Dog apparently is playing this month on HBO. If you have not seen Wag the Dog...
	It is very apropos, and perhaps somewhat of a...
	Coincidence?
	I think not!
	that it is playing right now on HBO.
	It's a message.
	The best morning waking up is fluoride in my cup.
	You know, when I was a kid, they used to have cowboy and Indian fights.
	And now they don't do it.
	What happened to the cap gun?
	Hey, hold on a second.
	Stop, stop, stop.
	I'll bet you that if you do cowboys and Indians in school, that you get suspended.
	Oh yeah, absolutely.
	There's more than a few reasons.
	Yeah, one, it's Indian.
	Racism, violence, guns.
	Wow, I hadn't even thought of it.
	We used to play Cowboys and Indians.
	That's what she did.
	What are you going to do?
	What are you going to do?
	Mom, I'm going to play Cowboys and Indians.
	Okay.
	And then we had rock fights.
	You ever have a rock fight?
	But the Cowboys, you used to have these cap guns.
	Yeah.
	You can't find a cap gun if you...
	I don't know where you'd get one in an antique shop, but then you can't find the caps for it.
	There used to be these long strings of things.
	You roll it in there and you could shoot 20...
	I think it was about 100 shots.
	Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang.
	And it'd make a loud bang.
	A boom.
	Your mic stand is...
	You got a WD-40 around?
	No, I actually have the right stuff for it.
	It's called Ranch Hand or something.
	I found this lubricant that makes...
	It's the greatest stuff ever.
	We'll talk about it in the next show, and I'll put some on the stand so I don't have this...
	This constant squeaking.
	I know what you mean, because it would stop doing it so I didn't pay much attention to that today.
	It's actually funny, because a couple times during the show, I would hear the sound, and I thought it was a text message or something coming.
	I had no idea.
	And then I recall, ah, yes, it's this.
	It's just really bad today.
	Yeah, it is.
	It is.
	Yeah, it's worse than it has been.
	I'm going to write this down.
	What's it called?
	It's Ranch Hand or something like that.
	I'll give it the name.
	Ranch Hand?
	It's a very obscure lubricant that I saw.
	Yeah, I'll bet.
	Oh, no, I'm telling you, for like a WD-40 and just any sort of, it's a synthetic oil, so it's a very slippery product.
	Hey girls, want to try some ranch hands?
	And holy mackerel!
	Ranch hand.
	It's a little pricey.
	Be on the safe side.
	That must not be it.
	No, I don't know what you're talking about.
	I don't know.
	You know, I receive so many emails from people who go back to the beginning to episode one and listen to every single episode of this show.
	Why would anyone...
	This sounds to me like someone just feels like torturing themselves.
	Is there something important about this show that I'm missing?
	There's something we're doing that is striking a chord with people one way or the other.
	Yeah, but that really doesn't begin until Show 100.
	Well, yeah, true.
	But I guess people just want the genesis of how we got to Show 100.
	Well, I hope that they make sure...
	Show 100 actually was an important show.
	I remember where I was on Show 100.
	Yeah, you were in the dumps.
	Yeah, and we actually had a conversation about quitting the show.
	At show 100.
	I remember this.
	Yeah, you wanted to quit the show and I urged us to go on and fight the good fight.
	That's right.
	I think it went something...
	I don't think it went quite like that.
	I didn't hear you go, fight the good fight.
	I think it don't be such a pussy.
	Something like that.
	Well, that was probably what it was.
	Yeah, don't be such a pussy.
	Don't be such a pussy, man.
	I think we've done enough.
	Let me do you.
	I think we've done enough.
	We've done 100 shows, and I think we've touched on all the topics we need to touch on.
	I think we've made our points.
	This is bullcrap.
	We've made them.
	This is bullcrap.
	No, no.
	I had left my wife.
	I was confused.
	I was in love.
	Everything was nutty.
	And then something had happened.
	I can't recall what it was exactly.
	And it made us question everything.
	Don't you remember there was something that went down?
	Well, I think we were questioning stuff pretty early on.
	Not to the extent that we are now, where it's just like, pretty much everything.
	We finally figured it out.
	Everything over crap.
	IBM, you know, people think of IBM as, you know, like they make computers.
	No.
	IBM's main business is managing systems.
	In fact, under Lou Gerstner, they were even my client back in the 90s, They really built a huge, multi-billion dollar business on managing systems.
	And they manage systems for everything from healthcare to police forces to banks.
	I mean, that's really their business.
	Right, John?
	I mean, you know more about that than I do.
	Yeah.
	Well, this is where you say, yeah, and here's...
	Okay, but you don't have anything.
	All right.
	Normally you have an anecdote.
	No.
	Okay.
	So IBM this week sent over 200 senior IBM executives to Washington to help lobby for the passage of the CISPA cybersecurity sharing.
	All right, so let's go over this again.
	Why?
	Well, they...
	Now, if I'm a big company...
	I'm going to have to be doing a lot of work now for the government for free.
	No, IBM does this for their clients.
	Oh, I see what you're doing.
	Oh, they're the middle man.
	Yeah, they run the systems.
	No, they're all for it.
	You're right.
	Of course.
	But here's the kicker.
	Remember the last time IBM worked with sharing information with the government?
	No.
	No.
	Oh, shall I remind you that IBM actually put together the punch card system that helped...
	Oh, you're talking about the German, yeah, the Nazis.
	The Nazis sort out the Jews?
	Jews.
	So is this really something we want IBM doing again?
	That's a good one.
	Good catch.
	It's sickening is what it is.
	So you can look this up.
	IBM. In fact, it wasn't your buddy, Edwin Black.
	Isn't that your buddy?
	Yeah, Edwin Black.
	Ed Black.
	Great guy.
	Yeah, he wrote the book, IBM and the Holocaust, the Strategic Alliance Between Nazi Germany and America's Most Powerful Corporation.
	And they built, what was the name of that machine?
	It's a Hollerith card sorter.
	Hollerith, yeah, punch card technology, Hollerith.
	And that's what they used to sort out the population to find the Jews, to send them into ovens.
	That's IBM's legacy.
	And now IBM is in Washington trying to get your information.
	I wonder who they're going to go after this time.
	No, but this doesn't sound like a good idea.
	On that reason alone, this should be voted down.
	Just the whole idea that IBM is even involved.
	This is horrible.
	This is usually why you say that I'm following Britney Spears.
	No, but as you mentioned, it did happen the other day, and your name's still on there.
	And it shows up, so you see me as a tweet, and then it says, Adam follows Britney Spears.
	Is that how it works?
	No, no.
	Oh.
	On the left-hand column, this is who to follow.
	Oh.
	I wrote a whole column about how stupid this is, because I'm not interested in following half of these people.
	Right.
	Right.
	But they could do an analysis of who I talk to and what, you know, they could do a line analysis and figure out who I really should be following, but they don't.
	Anyway, so it shows up Britney Spears and it says, followed by, and it names a bunch of names.
	And I'm always on it.
	Oh, yeah, at the top.
	Could you turn up your microphone a little bit?
	Could you turn up your microphone?
	Microphone is good, but if you can turn up your microphone, that would be better.
	How's this?
	Yeah.
	Oh, wow.
	World of difference.
	Oh yeah, right.
	Would you like a fun fact while we're at it?
	You know, I am Mr.
	Fun Fact.
	Where does the name Taser come from?
	Uh...
	Uh-huh.
	I thought I knew that.
	It is an acronym.
	Yeah, I would think so.
	And the guy who invented this named it after one of his favorite science fiction characters, Thomas A. Swift.
	And the acronym stands for Thomas A. Swift Electronic Rifle Taser.
	And people who know me know that I have read all the Tom Swift books.
	I'm finding this hard to believe.
	No.
	I'm looking at the Wikipedia page now trying to find this.
	John's like, oh, wait a minute.
	It's not explained down here.
	Let me try this.
	Why do you not like my factoid?
	It's just one of those things that I think was...
	It sounds like it was reverse engineered.
	That's the reason I... You don't like my...
	Fuck!
	That's the reason.
	Remember, you can't say fact without act.
	This is my new one.
	What a great slogan.
	So without a doubt, my hobby, my passion outside of this program is high-frequency radio transceivers and antennas.
	I'm really into it.
	God knows why.
	There's something going on that I'm being pushed by the universe into this.
	So I go looking for a podcast.
	Because, you know, I don't know, I had something to do with that.
	And it's like, oh, this could be great.
	Because, you know, you're not going to find this on NBC. Discovery Channel doesn't have like a thing.
	Yeah, maybe a ridicule.
	So there's all these podcasts.
	Linux in the Ham Shack.
	Ham Nation.
	Ham Radio Today.
	And let me tell you something.
	They all suck balls.
	Every single one of them.
	It's horrible.
	And people think that it's fun.
	It's not fun to listen to you talk bullcrap about yourself for an hour before you get into what it's really about.
	What the point of your show is about.
	Yeah.
	I mean, yeah.
	Unless you have a show that's about talking bull crap.
	Well, okay, then that's good.
	But get into it.
	And you might want to consider when you do it, get a chat room who can sit there and yell at you.
	As far as annoying as it is, it works.
	Yeah, no, I think the chat room is valuable.
	Even though I'm sorry I said that.
	Wow, hold on.
	Let me pick myself up off the floor.
	It's valuable.
	All right.
	There's lots of stuff here.
	I want to save that for Sunday because we're going pretty long here.
	I do want to say one thing.
	Next time you see some kind of propaganda about North Korea, which they might bring back.
	I don't know.
	It depends.
	Do you think they'll have any North Korea stories between now and Sunday?
	I really doubt it.
	Or is that just stuff that they still had and they've got to get rid of it?
	I'm loving the news.
	They basically have two types of footage that everyone's using.
	Play this little game and point it out to your friends and family so that you know that the propaganda is working.
	They'll show you three things.
	You see a bunch of dudes marching on the street in perfect goose-stepping.
	You see two trucks with missiles on it bound to the top.
	And my favorite new one is you got like 30 guys in a field and the one guy does a somersault.
	Have you seen that one?
	No!
	Yeah!
	So they got like guns with machine guns and they're running through a field like they're attacking.
	And then one guy does a forward somersault and shoots his machine gun right in front of the camera.
	You got it.
	Well, the other one, you can't forget the one where they shoot a bunch of these missiles from the back of a truck.
	Right, right.
	Yeah, but they're not using that one.
	They're not using that one.
	Well, I saw it recently.
	And then, of course, Kim Jong-un in the binoculars.
	Yeah, but that's all.
	We've done that.
	It's not funny anymore.
	We've done it all.
	My advice is to have these five clips ideas in your pocket.
	Written down, and then when they start showing us and you're with somebody that, you know, is susceptible to the phony balloon, you say, here's what they're going to do, and you happen to hand them the card real quick before they run this.
	The Somersault guy is my favorite, though.
	I think, I don't know if he's exclusive to CNN, but he's really funny.
	And they look like little green army men for some reason.
	They look exactly like little green army dudes.
	And so, yeah, the former Somersault is pretty cool.
	There's a big push right now.
	And it's War on Weed.
	And at first I didn't see it, but I was lucky enough to be driving around a bit with Miss Mickey.
	We went to our dance class and stuff.
	As you know, I don't have a phone anymore, so we listened to the radio, the radio.
	Listening to National Public Radio, National Pentagon Radio.
	And a small study came out, a very small study, That says, ah, even casual marijuana use can mess up your brain if you're a young adult.
	20 pot users in the study, 20, this is a huge study.
	Ooh, a huge study of 20?
	Ages 18 to 25 said they smoked marijuana an average of about 4 days a week for an average total of about 11 joints.
	Half of them smoked fewer than 6 joints a week.
	Researchers scanned their brains and compared the results to those of 20 non-users who were matched for age, sex, and other traits.
	The results show differences in two brain areas associated with emotion and motivation.
	Yeah, the amygdala.
	No kidding.
	Hey man, I'll be here later.
	I don't want to clean up my room right now.
	I'm kidding.
	Don't worry.
	Users showed higher density than non-users, as well as differences in shape of those areas.
	Both differences were more pronounced than those who reported smoking more marijuana.
	Now, so this prompted an entire barrage, and this is clearly PR companies at work, an entire barrage of reports.
	And I heard this one on NPR, which is just a quick clip.
	It was like a seven-minute bit.
	And it was all about moms and parents and dads in Colorado and how they're dealing with their kids because you can't legally consume the devil weed until you're...
	Is it 18 or 21 in Colorado?
	I don't know.
	I think it's 21.
	Maybe 21.
	So you can't legally consume the devil weed.
	Now, I grew up in Amsterdam where there never has been an age restriction.
	It's not even technically legal.
	It's just allowed.
	And, you know, when I was 15, maybe even 14, I'd smoke the joint.
	I'm like, okay, that's great.
	Yeah, that felt kind of funny, but...
	Because it wasn't such a big deal, you don't walk around stoned all day.
	Same with alcohol.
	If you look 16 and you were 15, you could go into a bar and get a beer.
	No big deal.
	But listen, these parents...
	Instead of having a normal dialogue and a normal relationship with their kids.
	Now, these are teenage kids.
	This one parent really stuck out.
	And I can just visualize this woman.
	And she's so wired.
	I think she's just going to explode.
	I don't know.
	It's sad.
	Really sad when I hear this.
	One in six kids who uses marijuana eventually becomes addicted to it, according to studies cited by the National Institutes of Health.
	So we have this one study, really.
	This one study.
	Lisa Philholm is a Denver mom who attended the panel.
	She has had lots of open, very candid discussions with her two teen sons about the pressures and temptations to use pot.
	But at the end of the day, she says, kids need firm boundaries.
	And I think it's pretty clear, when you're an adult, figure it out for yourself.
	When you're a kid, nope.
	You already hear this, nope.
	Listen to this, Mom.
	Nope.
	Zero.
	I mean, we have a zero-tolerance policy in our house, which involves urine testing at home, if we think we need it.
	If we think we need it!
	No way.
	No way.
	The answer was no way.
	No way!
	And I think that is how you have to handle it.
	I have to handle it!
	No!
	Zero-tolerance policy!
	All right.
	Test your urine!
	Stop.
	You know what I'm looking for here?
	Do I get it?
	Yep, you get Clip of the Day.
	This woman needs to smoke a joint.
	That is unbelievable.
	What a horrible person that woman is.
	She needs to smoke a joint.
	You kids, okay, you're taking urine tests right now.
	Line up, you brats.
	No way!
	Zero tolerance!
	Policy in our house, which involves urine testing at home, if we think we need it.
	We put a foot down.
	No way.
	The answer is no way.
	And I think that is how you have to handle it.
	How you have to handle it!
	I feel bad for the kids.
	This poor woman, she's completely psycho.
	She's totally psycho.
	Over a plant!
	That's a horrible person, that woman.
	Now, here's the interesting thing that I learned.
	Urine testing?
	Yeah.
	Line up!
	Kids, it's a weekly urine testing.
	Here's the thing that I learned.
	Drink some beer if you have to pee.
	Okay.
	Guess the movie.
	Here we go.
	What am I guessing?
	Hold on.
	Is it titled Guess the Movie?
	Yes.
	Once again.
	Once again.
	Oh, oh, humanity.
	It's crashing.
	It's burning.
	I'm sorry.
	Jeffrey!
	Oh, my God!
	Oh, my God!
	Oh, Jesus.
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	I'm sorry.
	Everybody, I'm sorry.
	I didn't mean for this to happen.
	It's an accident.
	Look.
	I want to apologize to everybody here, please.
	I'm going to put everybody back together, I promise you.
	Well, first thing, I've got to put Elizabeth back together, because that's the whole point of this.
	And then I'm going to take care of everybody.
	I'm going to get to everybody.
	Just take it easy.
	First, we're going to take a little trip to New Jersey.
	It's just right over the bridge.
	They've got an estrogen-based blood serum there.
	It's going to do wonders for you.
	Oh, man.
	Wow.
	If you had ever seen this movie, you would have recognized that dialogue.
	Well, of course, Oh, the Humanity, but that I remember Oh, the Humanity from only two things.
	I remember it from, of course, the Hindenburg, the famous radio announcer, Oh, the Humanity, and I believe Police Academy 4, Citizens on Patrol.
	I think that was stolen from Star Trek.
	That's where...
	Oh.
	Where it came up with the Spock.
	He had this rock that there was a living rock and then he mind melded with it and then yelled, oh, the humanity.
	And what is the correct answer?
	For this particular clip, Frankenhooker.
	Oh, yeah.
	No.
	You're right.
	You're right.
	Once again, you have stumped me, John.
	Yeah.
	It's a funny idea.
	It's not funny.
	I would say the more likely scenario is the last clip, if you look at all the clip lists, there's one at the very end.
	Play it.
	And I think it summarizes the show.
	Okay.
	Too much cleavage.
	There you go.
	That would do it, ladies and gentlemen.
	He couldn't clip everything, but he got that one.
	Very nice.
	Too much cleavage.
	Too much cleavage.
	All right.
	Round of applause for Sir Ramsey Cain.
	Yeah, that wraps it.
	That was good.
	Really appreciate that.
	And everybody who helps produce the show, of course, with your support, your financial support, dvorak.org, but also the clips, the jingles, the artwork, the information.
	What a great community.
	And we will be back Thursday.
	Thursday.
	Thursday.
	You'll be back.
	I'm sure you'll have tons of stories from the Gitmo Nation GMT. Oh, a few.
	It's going to be cold.
	And maybe a meetup.
	Maybe some meetup stories.
	Yeah.
	Actually, yes, we're having a meet-up on Friday.
	It's too late for that.
	Hey, thanks for coming, everybody.
	I will have sent out a note.
	And with that, we'll see you on Thursday Live, coming to you from downtown Austin, Texas, FEMA Region 6, on all those governmental maps in the morning, everybody.
	I'm Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley, actually, London, what am I thinking?
	That's why the Zephyr's not going by.
	I'm John C. Dvorak.
	We'll be back on Thursday Live!
	Until then, adios, mofos!
	The best podcast in the universe!
