	I bet!
	Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak.
	It's Sunday, March 7th, 2021.
	This is your award-winning Gilmore Nation Media Assassination Episode 1327.
	This is No Agenda.
	966 dead and counting and broadcasting live from Opportunity Zone 33 here in the frontier of Austin, Texas, capital of the drone star state.
	In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley, where we can report an eight-car Zephyr, I'm John C. Dvorak.
	Ladies and gentlemen, right off the bat, we might as well alert the boys over Squawk Box CNBC. We have an eight-car Zephyr.
	We have a very stable, slowly growing economy.
	Bitcoin, 51,033.
	Oh, my God!
	Listen to that horn!
	Of course, the Zephyr was reported out of Denver.
	Wait a minute.
	Do we have other Zephyr outposts that I'm unaware of?
	We do now.
	Nice.
	We have our Denver producer.
	That's the way to go.
	That is very good.
	That covers Sunday, because there's no Zephyr going by here today.
	No, exactly.
	I was surprised.
	It's yesterday's Zephyr.
	Since CNN isn't doing it, I figure we might as well just keep the death count.
	You know, they did that for the past year on how many people died with COVID. So I think we should do how many people died from the vaccine.
	966 so far.
	I have the handout you get when you go get a vaccine from Pfizer.
	Oh, okay.
	Now, this is a big giant thing.
	I want to go over it because it's, I don't know how many pages, it's like six, seven, it's eight pages.
	Wow.
	There's a couple of pages in front to keep you from reading the real pages.
	Is it all in uppercase so you really can't read it?
	It just swims in front of your eyes like a EULA? The first couple pages are about V-Safe.
	V-Safe?
	The after-vaccination health check.
	Ah, yay.
	You're supposed to check in with them, or they're supposed to call you, or something like that?
	You aim your smartphone at the code, and then you end up getting in.
	They call you every few minutes.
	They say, you okay?
	You okay?
	You okay?
	Until you tell it to stop.
	Mm-hmm.
	And so this goes on for a couple pages, and then you, okay, complete, and then the V-Safe, it's all cool, it's all up-tempo, and in, uh, Arial.
	And then, boom, then the fact sheet for recipients and carriers.
	What font?
	What font is that in?
	It's also, that's curiously also in Arial.
	Oh, okay.
	Could, might be, I don't think it's Helvetica, but I'd have to look on a cheat sheet.
	Um, Now it goes, you've been offered the vaccine.
	It's like, this is six pages of just pages of stuff that seems normal until you get to, you know, I highlighted about eight of the sentences that should be read.
	There's no U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved vaccine to prevent COVID-19.
	It's on page one.
	Well, you know, stop right there.
	This is very interesting.
	One of our producers pointed out to me.
	If, you know, if the, if you don't feel comfortable with the, I'll just wait for, you know, I'll wait until it's my time, or I don't want to jump the line, you can also say, yes, I'll consider the vaccine once it's been approved by the FDA, to which immediately people go, there's three of them, man!
	Yeah, is any of them approved by the FDA, or do they have emergency use authorization?
	All of them.
	It's dynamite.
	It's dynamite to use this.
	And here goes a couple paragraphs later.
	The Pfizer-BioNTech, they'll put that in on each one.
	I guess they've been asking for more credit.
	COVID-19 vaccine may not protect everyone.
	Onward, the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine is an unapproved vaccine that may prevent COVID-19.
	Go to page two.
	Now this one I'm going to read, although I don't really want to.
	Because I can't.
	Okay.
	But it's the paragraph that says, what are the ingredients in the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine?
	Yeah.
	Well, here's your witch's brew.
	I'm going to try to read it.
	The vaccine includes the following ingredients.
	MRNA lipids.
	4-hydroxybutyl-azondyl-bis-hexane-6-1-diol-bis-2-hexane-decanoc.
	Oh, that's red dye number three.
	2-polyethylene glycol-2000-NN-ditetracycloacetamide.
	Vape juice.
	1, 2, di-sterol, SN-glycero-3, phosphocholine, and cholesterol.
	The good kind or the bad kind?
	Potassium chloride, monobasic potassium phosphate, sodium chloride, dibasic sodium phosphate, dihydrate.
	And sucrose.
	Mmm!
	A little sugar in there.
	Yeah, well at least it's not high fructose corn syrup.
	Next page.
	Vaccine is an unapproved vaccine.
	Next paragraph.
	The duration of protection against COVID-19 is currently unknown.
	Vaccine could cause a severe allergic reaction.
	Whoops!
	Um...
	I don't know why I highlighted this one.
	It says, what if I decide not to get the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine?
	It is your choice to receive it or not receive it.
	Does it have that emphasis in there?
	That's good.
	Or not.
	Should you decide not to receive it, it will not change your standard medical care.
	Oh, this is interesting.
	Now I know why I underline this.
	So...
	What it says here is that if you choose not to receive this vaccine, it will not, and think about this, change your standard medical care.
	That means nobody can require you to have the vaccine if it has anything to do with your doctor or going into the hospital or getting an operation or anything.
	Which should be between you and your doctor because that is what Roe v.
	Wade determined.
	Well, it's not Roe v.
	Wade.
	Oh, no?
	Well, don't want to keep going.
	It should be between you and your doctor, but if it's in your record, it is your doctor, and your doctor can't say you didn't get the COVID vaccine, so we can't remove this cyst.
	Or you can't come into the hospital because you didn't get the COVID vaccine.
	Uh-huh, uh-huh.
	I don't think people realize that.
	Well, and this goes to the whole passport thing.
	There can be no discussion of passport until at least these things are approved by the FDA, wouldn't you say?
	I think that's 100% correct.
	Yeah, and that is the first step.
	Because it'll take years to approve these.
	It's not going to just happen overnight.
	They'll never get approved.
	No.
	So that's a pretty interesting idea.
	Excuse me, you can't have a passport for something that's unapproved.
	End of discussion.
	There's only one last one.
	At the very end, I don't know, it does say this.
	People, of course, aren't going to read any of this.
	If I read this, I wouldn't take it back.
	You walk right out.
	You slam that syringe on the ground.
	The Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine has not undergone the same type of review as an FDA-approved or cleared product.
	Boom.
	That's it.
	That's it.
	So there's your answer.
	None of this can take place until that's approved, and I have high doubts.
	We don't know that much about the vaccine.
	In fact, San Diego did an interesting thing this past week, and they just say it outright.
	We really don't know too much about this vaccine.
	A group of great apes in San Diego have made history as the first animals to receive the COVID-19 vaccines in the U.S. According to a wildlife health officer, the decision to administer the vaccines came after eight gorillas at the San Diego Zoo became the first great apes in the world to contract COVID. The apes are expected to be tested to see whether they develop antibodies, which would indicate that the vaccine is working.
	You know what?
	They're endangered.
	And we could actually sort of learn a lot about how the vaccine works as well.
	Oh, learn how the vaccine works.
	Shoot it into the great apes.
	Which you should have done in the first place, I think.
	This reminds me of the Nancy Pelosi comment, let's pass this bill so we can see what's in it.
	So we have a new term, a new syndrome, which is very bad, which is now cropping up and has been given a name by the mainstream media as we go to 50 miles outside of Chicago for this one.
	Life was good for 48-year-old Ben Price.
	The married father of two was a farmer and business owner in Morris.
	In February, he contracted COVID-19 after riding in a car with others to Bible study.
	Two weeks later, he took his own life.
	He would never have left us.
	Our Ben did not leave us, and that's what we want to get out, is he was not our Ben.
	Price's widow, Jennifer, says her husband was hospitalized for four days with lung and oxygen issues.
	He came home a different man.
	He would just pace through the house and repeat things.
	And it wasn't even in his normal tone of voice.
	It was a very different tone.
	He was very scared.
	He just kept repeating, I'm sorry, I'm so scared.
	I'm so scared.
	And he just kept repeating, I'm And he would stare out the window, and he was just worried about things that weren't even happening.
	16 days from COVID diagnosis to death by suicide, despite doctors prescribing Xanax to try to calm him.
	While doctors have not yet been able to determine if Ben Price had something known as COVID psychosis, medical experts say the virus can definitely impact a person's brain.
	Okay.
	COVID psychosis.
	I think this is important to recognize because it can be a nocebo effect.
	Even for people who've had the vaccine, they can be so freaked out over everything.
	People are going crazy.
	Wow.
	It's terrible.
	The machine is turning full strength, man.
	I mean, counter to the Democrats who want to open up and take all their winnings.
	There's $350 billion for basically New York, Chicago, and New York, Illinois, and California.
	And the biosecurity state wants us to stay locked up.
	I'll tell you, I don't have any clips, but maybe I do, but this morning I watched television before I came in here to the studio.
	Yes, in the studio, sure.
	And...
	All that was on were all these different commentators on these news shows talking about Abbott, Abbott, Abbott.
	It's not as though he's the only guy who did this, but Mississippi dropped a mask mandate.
	I think South Carolina.
	There's a bunch of people that did.
	Of course, South Dakota never had one.
	Both clips.
	Abbott, Abbott, Abbott.
	They're all...
	It's always about Abbott.
	They are going nuts over your governor, Abbott.
	Oh, yeah.
	Well, Texas is the...
	Abbott!
	Texas is the largest state, you know, and we're a bunch of douchebags.
	I mean, you know this.
	This is...
	Remember when I had that business meeting with the guy in San Diego, the Hollywood guy, and he's like, Texas!
	At least you're in Austin.
	It's not like Texas!
	Yeah!
	Why don't you go stick it up your ear, brother?
	They've never been to Texas.
	I don't know anything about it.
	So what the machine is trying to do is trying to tell us a couple things.
	One, look at these nutjobs in Texas taking their mask off, even though that has nothing to do with the order that Governor Abbott and the other governors, they haven't said, take your mask off.
	They said...
	Look, we're not going to mandate this anymore.
	Y'all can figure it out.
	And they actually said, y'all, because that's what we say here.
	But that is immediately, not even, we discussed in the last show, it's not even turned into social distancing because that's gone out the window.
	But now it's just about the mask.
	So it's, even though everyone can do whatever they want, I think.
	The debate over wearing masks is raging.
	Now that Texas and Mississippi are lifting their mask mandates, despite the change in the state policy, some cities and large retailers, including Target and Kroger, are keeping their mask requirements in place.
	Dr.
	Anthony Fauci says the decision by Texas and Mississippi is ill-advised.
	President Biden went further in his criticism, calling it Neanderthal thinking.
	I think it's a big mistake.
	The last thing we need is the Neanderthal thinking that, in the meantime, everything's fine.
	Take off your mask.
	Forget it.
	So everyone jumped on the pile.
	These are ABC clips, by the way, including Governor Newsom, your governor out there, pretty boy.
	And in California, Governor Gavin Newsom calling out other leaders who forego mask mandates and other restrictions.
	We are encouraging people basically to double down on mask wearing, particularly in light of all of what I would argue is bad information coming from at least four states in this country.
	We're the disinfo state.
	Coming from at least four states in this country.
	Leaders like Texas Governor Greg Abbott, who doubled down on his decision to lift restrictions.
	Texans have mastered the safe strategies.
	They don't need an order from Austin, Texas telling them what to do.
	Now, Dr.
	Fauci says studies are being conducted right now on vaccinated people to find out which activities are safe and which restrictions could be possibly lifted in the future.
	Well, this is interesting.
	Now, all of a sudden, we're discussing and evaluating what restrictions could be lifted.
	I think we should remind everybody and ourselves that that was supposed to be kind of when we had the vaccine.
	That's it.
	You're done.
	You're vaccinated.
	You go out.
	No, no, no.
	Yeah.
	The timeline was, we've got to do all these things until the vaccine.
	It was always until.
	Until the vaccine.
	That was the promise.
	My buddy Dave Jones lives in Alabama, and they were all hoping that their governor would follow suit.
	Their governor, I think she's like 91 years old.
	Her nickname is like Marmee.
	Something like that.
	And she's just this old crotchety lady, but she buckled under pressure.
	Folks, we're not there yet, but goodness knows we're getting comfortable.
	Governor Kay Ivey's playing it safe.
	Extending Alabama's mask mandate another five weeks.
	Contrast that with Texas and Mississippi.
	Republican governors there announced this week they're lifting mask mandates.
	Reversals President Biden called Neanderthal thinking.
	Alabama's masking extension encouraged staff at this mass vaccination clinic near Birmingham.
	It really signals to everybody that we are not out of the woods yet.
	But five miles away at Archie's Barbecue, General Manager Michael Manikidis had hoped the mask mandate would go away.
	90% of my customer base is against it.
	I would say they feel like they shouldn't have to wear it.
	Masking rollbacks in Texas and Mississippi means 16 states will no longer have mask requirements by next week.
	Yeah, it's out of control.
	They can't handle it.
	Now it's become a problem.
	The fire has been lit.
	They can't stop these governors from opening up their states.
	And people are starting to realize that this is some crap.
	So now we start to get the announcements, as I expected.
	Gold's Gym will not require masks for its members.
	We'll reopen 100% capacity this coming week.
	That's in Texas.
	Yeah, but although this is not about HEB, this is what the grocery stores are doing.
	Randall's Grocery Stores now says it will require customers to wear masks after the state mandate is lifted Wednesday.
	It says frontline associates haven't had full access to vaccines.
	We've updated our story about which grocery stores will require masks and which won't.
	At KXAN.com, just search for mask stores.
	And HEB made a similar announcement, which is not going over well.
	They're a real Texas outfit, and I think a lot of people are disappointed by that.
	But the story that their frontline workers have not been vaccinated yet, well, aren't they frontline workers?
	Aren't these the people who were supposed to have it so we could all be safe and now you're continuing to mandate masks because they don't have their vaccinations yet?
	Everything is so crooked, man.
	So crooked.
	It's very strange.
	And now...
	Before we continue, which I want to do, I want to play this clip because I want you to explain to me what the deal is with this Neanderthal term.
	The Biden thing?
	Is the COVID clip...
	I have to tell you what it is.
	Okay.
	Well, while we're talking about COVID, not this relief bill, but something else this week, several governors announced, Jonathan, that they are lifting their mask mandates.
	And President Biden, when asked about that, said it was it sounded to him like Neanderthal thinking.
	He's gotten a lot of blowback since then.
	Smart thing to say.
	What do you think, Jonathan?
	Well, Judy, I'm going to leave aside the president's comments.
	A lot of people are upset that he used the word Neanderthal.
	One person emailed me and said that it was a pejorative, and I get where they're coming from.
	But we've got bigger issues to worry about here and don't want to hear any noise from the far right or from conservatives complaining about the president's language when after four years they completely ignored or pretended not to hear, see, or read any of the tweets from the previous president.
	What we're dealing with here is a pandemic where, at least here in the United States, we were within reach of getting it under control.
	Hospitalizations, infections, deaths were on the downslope.
	And we have seen over the last few days, at least, that the levels of infections have stopped going down.
	You take, on top of that, Texas and Mississippi deciding that they're just gonna give up.
	No more masks.
	Open up completely.
	I think what a lot of scientists are looking at is the possibility of an upswing in reinfections right when we were on the path, and it looked like we were on a very good path, to having a summer, late summer, certainly fall, where we could be back to what we used to think of as normal.
	I wish that the governor of Texas and the governor of Mississippi would spend more time thinking and looking at the science and what the science says should be done, which would then make it possible for those states to open up safely more quickly than they're going to now.
	And by doing all of that, you get people back to work, you get economies moving again, and you get back to normal.
	Who the hell was this jabroni?
	That's that Capehart guy who's going to take over from David Brooks.
	He's the one who argues with Brooks.
	Because I think Brooks is getting fired.
	Oh, no.
	Brooks is on the way out.
	He's got all kinds of backroom deals.
	Conflicts of interest.
	Conflicts of interest.
	Now, of course, he had to be because he considers himself a moderate or somewhat conservative.
	So he had to go.
	It's clear.
	Goodbye.
	But this guy, this is not a medical guy.
	He's just talking out of his butthole.
	But it's part, and this is what it is.
	It's to scare everybody.
	The irony to that clip is where he says, oh, if we would have just waited until fall, next, you know, six months from now, we could go back to normal.
	Well, that's what they're doing in Texas.
	No, and that's not even true.
	It's not even, by the way, here in Texas, that comment from the president about Neanderthal, everyone here is like, Ah, poor man's elderly abuse.
	Let him go.
	No one cares.
	They really don't care here.
	I don't get that.
	Capehart said in there, he says, it's a pejorative.
	To who?
	Maybe to Abbott, but who cares?
	No one took it personally.
	It was dumb.
	The only thing that maybe M5M is doing here is to say, see, just like Trump, when he says something off-color, we report on it.
	Could that be it?
	Because he did mention that.
	Oh my God, if that's it, that's the worst.
	Well, it came up in the report, didn't it?
	He said, you know, they've all forgotten what Trump tweeted.
	Yeah, well, he's going by some talking points that we're unaware of.
	It'll take a while to deconstruct how he's oriented.
	I can't figure it out yet.
	Back to the biosecurity state that is fighting against the political state.
	Here we have former FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb, and he has his own version of what's really going to happen and when we can expect to go back to some normality.
	One is these comments by Dr.
	Fauci over the weekend suggesting that we're all going to be wearing masks irrespective of whether we've been vaccinated or not into 2022.
	Do you agree with that?
	I don't think so.
	I think that there might be circumstances where some of us will want to wear masks.
	I don't think this is going to be linear, too.
	Dr.
	Fauci also said that he thinks things will be normal by December.
	I think things will be normal in the spring and the summer of this year.
	I think in the fall...
	We're going to have to take certain precautions, but we're going to be back doing stuff.
	And then as we get into the deep winter, as this starts to circulate again, I think come December we may start to pull back.
	That doesn't mean we're going to have shutdowns and be doing what we did this December, but it means we might not have holiday parties, board meetings in December, might be Zoom rather than in-person meetings.
	There's going to be things that we do differently.
	So this isn't going to be a linear progression over the course of the year where it gets progressively better, and then by Christmas time it's all good.
	I think this is a respiratory pathogen that circulates in the wintertime, and once it becomes wintertime again in 2021-2022, we're going to need to take certain precautions.
	I think if there's going to be a normal time over the next 12 months, it's likely to be this spring and summer.
	Let's decode this.
	What he's saying is...
	Hell yeah, you get a little break and then we're going to yank you right back down, you stupid, stupid, stupid slaves.
	And this summer?
	Oh yeah?
	Really?
	You think the machine is going to let you have a nice spring and summer?
	I don't think so.
	So with Florida having a quarter of the cases of the B.1.1.7 variant in the entire country, how concerned are you of another surge?
	This is the mayor of Miami Beach.
	A lot of things are happening simultaneously.
	We've got the variant down here, and we still are having sometimes dozens of deaths a day in our county.
	And at the same time, we've got incredibly cheap round-trip tickets for $40, you know, from anywhere in the North.
	Deaths per day.
	What's the average age of the Florida residents?
	Certainly during...
	I think it's...
	Let me guess.
	I think I pretty much know it.
	It's, I believe, 103.
	At the same time, it's got incredibly...
	And that's just Horowitz who's up in the ante there.
	Cheap round-trip tickets for 40 bucks, you know, from anywhere in the Northeast down here.
	Discounted rooms and people who have been really in there, you know, bent up and wanting to get out with no other place to go than here.
	So we are very worried that there's going to be a convergence of people here and a real problem in the aftermath of that.
	But all those people coming here go to bars, which are open per the governor's order, go to restaurants.
	And most of our restaurants have been really responsible.
	There's a lot of outdoor dining.
	Hotels have been incredible in terms of setting up all the protections for people.
	But it's really the bars and those other kinds of gatherings that That might become the kinds of super spreaders that I think we saw a year ago.
	Super spreader just like last year.
	They're just going to keep coming at you.
	They're going to lower...
	I don't know what's wrong with that guy.
	By the way, the governor didn't order the bars to be open.
	They love positioning that.
	Abbott ordered the mask mandate lifted.
	Average age in Florida, 42 years old compared to Texas, 34.6.
	But all of this talk about masks, it's all finally been resolved.
	Finally, now we know.
	Oh my goodness, I'm glad we have the final study.
	Tonight, Dr.
	Anthony Fauci says he's concerned that a recent drop in infections nationwide has now stalled and could start climbing again.
	New research from the CDC appears to back that up, suggesting that in places where in-person dining is allowed, the death rate from COVID goes up.
	At the same time, scientists at the CDC say they now have evidence that masks work, leading to fewer infections and deaths.
	They have evidence now!
	John!
	Aren't you happy to know that the debate is finally over?
	After a year?
	Yes.
	Yeah.
	Now, there's some interesting thoughts about the reaction, the response about the masks, certainly in Austin.
	And I would say, if you look on social media, the outrage is mainly from women.
	And I'm sure a lot of them are moms and they've been terrorized.
	But Cam B. over on NoAgendaSocial.com posted something.
	And I said, I have a theory.
	It's about face makeup.
	I found this out in Japan pre-COVID. I asked a local why there were so many women who wore masks on trains as opposed to the men.
	And the woman I was with told me it's because they couldn't be bothered doing their makeup in the morning and are just running errands and didn't want to take off, you know, just throw the mask on.
	It's the Lululemon stretch pants for the face.
	And I have a feeling there's something to that.
	Wow!
	That's a great post.
	Who's that again?
	That's from Cam B, No Agenda Social.
	And along with that comes, there was a, let me see, where is this now?
	There was a post about a whole bunch of Blue check marks on Twitter.
	And they're all...
	I'm looking for it here.
	They're all basically saying the same thing.
	Like, oh, here it is.
	Let me read this.
	And so these are quote-unquote verified people, and maybe they're journalists.
	The one who kicked off this tweet thread is Emily Ramshaw.
	I think she was the CEO of 19th News.
	It's kind of like these BuzzFeed Vox outlets.
	And here's her tweet.
	Suddenly today, I panicked about life inching back toward normal.
	I don't want to travel endlessly for work.
	I don't want my weekends to be overcommitted with activities.
	I don't want to miss bedtime with my kid.
	I don't want to wear blazers or hell, even shoes.
	And all these blue check marks start piling in.
	Yes, the thought of going back to my old routine horrifies me.
	Or yes to this a thousand times, yes.
	Another one.
	I started to feel so much of this week, too.
	I want to travel and eat out so badly, and yet I'm terrified about returning to the life I had pre-pandemic.
	What is going on here?
	Great reset.
	That's what it's about.
	Something's going on.
	This is very...
	And these are elites, obviously.
	These are not poor people.
	These are checkmark people.
	I wonder if there's a correlation in income and checkmarks.
	Now, just because you have a checkmark, I don't want to generalize.
	But there is something here about them not really even wanting to go back to normal.
	I think JC, who works from home, he works at a startup, a couple different ones.
	I think he's in this same camp.
	I think a lot of the millennials are in this camp.
	They don't like what they were doing.
	I mean, they liked the job.
	They liked the potential for income.
	They liked the money.
	But they didn't like to have to go to work.
	And jeez, it was so...
	You know, I had to get up.
	I had to put shoes on.
	I got to put makeup on my face.
	And I got to, you know, go all the way to work and back to the toll gates and all the rest.
	It's too much.
	It's too hard.
	Some of these must be teachers, too.
	I think there's a...
	Oh, teachers.
	All the teachers are on this camp.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Well, if there's no will...
	I gotta go see these brats?
	I gotta go and deal with these 25 brats?
	You know, I have heard teachers talk that way.
	Woohoo!
	Yeah.
	I have a couple other clips.
	Okay.
	I have a few more, so whenever you're...
	Well, here, let's do the COVID. First, let's get this out of the way because you hear all these people, oh, it's going to go back up, blah, blah, blah.
	And that Capehart guy, oh, we're within an inch, within a grasp.
	I can almost get there.
	And then they pull me back because of Texas, because there's a one guy in Texas.
	Yeah, the Neanderthal.
	The Neanderthal guy in Texas.
	COVID cases, meanwhile, they're still telling us this, COVID cases declining on PBS. The number of new coronavirus cases continues to drop in the United States, but the decline has slowed slightly.
	Yesterday, there were more than 65,000 new cases, a 12% drop from two weeks ago, according to the New York Times.
	Overall, there have been nearly 29 million cases of COVID-19 counted in the U.S. and more than 520,000 deaths.
	The drop in cases has prompted a growing number of states to loosen health restrictions.
	Yesterday, Arizona Governor Doug Ducey ended capacity limits on the state's businesses but kept mask wearing and social distancing requirements in place.
	Also yesterday, South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster lifted a mask mandate in government buildings And California officials announced that theme parks may partially reopen as soon as April.
	But public health officials like Dr.
	Anthony Fauci warned that loosening restrictions now could lead to yet another spike in COVID-19 cases.
	Oh, man.
	And all they have to do is just send out a memo and up the cycle count on the PCR. You're good to go.
	Boom, there's your spike.
	Good to go.
	That's all they got to do.
	And they've already done that in Ontario.
	They raised it from 30 to 35.
	Oh, they'll get their numbers up.
	Ontario, numbers going up.
	We can predict it now.
	Might as well.
	Don't even need to put it in the book.
	Here, play this one.
	This is the COVID UK report.
	This is where it's really crap.
	Hello there.
	Good evening.
	The health secretary has hailed what he called seriously encouraging evidence, suggesting that a single shot of one of the COVID vaccines available in the UK cuts hospitalizations by 80%.
	In an additional sign of the potential efficacy of the vaccination program, The number of patients over 80 admitted to intensive care with COVID in the UK has dropped to single figures.
	Meanwhile, Labour has accused the government of unforgivable incompetence as health officials continued their attempts to trace a person who tested positive for the Brazilian variant of the virus.
	And the deputy chief medical officer warned there was great uncertainty about the prospects of summer holidays abroad this year.
	Our science correspondent Thomas Moore reports.
	It is about as far removed from the Amazon as you can imagine, but the patchwork of South Gloucestershire is now the front line of an urgent attempt to contain a significant new variant in Brazil.
	Hey, that's racist.
	You can't say that.
	Can't say where it's from, man.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	The way it works, it seems as though some guy went through the system, and I guess to the right system where they had to test for the variants, they found the variant.
	The guy was gone when they came out.
	Tell him or whatever.
	I don't know.
	He disappeared.
	He escaped.
	Now the whole country's in a tizzy.
	Yeah.
	It's a manhunt.
	It's a manhunt for someone, dude.
	Bojo the Jabber is on a manhunt.
	We'll get him.
	Tackle him.
	Bojo the Jabber.
	I'll write that down.
	I'm liking that.
	Well, you can also jab in Joe.
	There's another one.
	Bojo the Jabber is like just hunting this guy down, sticking with a needle.
	Meanwhile, I should get this, this is more from South Africa, but the South Africans have pretty much the same ratio of deaths and everything to us.
	They're the only country in South America, I'm sorry, the only country in Africa that has this phenomenon.
	But they seem to be a lot calmer about it, with pretty much the same percentage numbers that we have every which way.
	They don't seem to be so jacked up.
	South Africa has moved into the lowest level lockdown, further relaxing restrictions on movement, gatherings, and economic activity.
	It comes after officials said it was a dramatic decline in COVID-19 cases over eight weeks.
	Now South Africa is the worst affected country on the continent, having recorded over 1.5 million infections and 50,000 deaths.
	A new variant that is more easily transmitted dominated a deadly second wave in the country.
	In a national broadcast on Sunday evening, President Cyril Ramaphosa said that the country had now emerged from that second wave and that the vaccine rollout was steadily progressing.
	Once the vaccination of healthcare workers has been completed, we will begin with Phase 2 of the vaccination rollout in late April to early May.
	Phase 2 will include the elderly, essential workers, persons living or working in institutional settings, and those with comorbidities.
	Now, South Africa recently signed an agreement with Johnson& Johnson to secure 11 million doses of the COVID-19 vaccine.
	The country is currently inoculating its frontline health workers, but some of them are opposed to the Johnson& Johnson vaccine because the government began administering the jab before its trial phase had concluded.
	I had little weeks into South Africa's vaccination program and there is growing resistance.
	So far, less than 8,000 people have received the voluntary jab.
	Oh, man.
	You know, the thing about that, though, is the South Africans paying careful enough attention to say, hey, we'll take the vaccine after it's been fully tested.
	Americans, we haven't even gotten to the Johnson& Johnson issues.
	We're just taking anything.
	You know, I was talking to Willow.
	I called her for her birthday on the 5th.
	And she's like, well, I think we have to take the vaccine.
	And, you know, she's been a little terrorized.
	And they're still in orange zone, which means they're partially locked down, curbside service only, etc.
	And I said, well, look, if you're going to take the vaccine, then my advice would be, take the Johnson& Johnson, because, you know, at least it's not the mRNA.
	And she texted me half an hour later.
	Alessandro, her husband, who has quite a follow in Italy, he just got deplatformed from Facebook because he tweeted, he posted that.
	Take the Johnson& Johnson, not the other ones.
	And they lopped him right off.
	In Italy.
	Wow!
	Yeah.
	Man, they've got the clamps out.
	This is terrible.
	There's no excuse for that.
	If you read what's now coming up...
	You can't have an opinion about what brand to buy.
	This is a brand...
	I think there's a restraining trade issue here.
	This is a brand decision.
	I might like one brand of soap.
	I might like Tide.
	I might like All.
	I might like one of these other off-brands, Clorox detergent.
	Ajax.
	I can't say to somebody that I think I would rather buy Tide.
	I think Tide Liquid, and by the way, Tide Liquid is quite good.
	Tide Liquid.
	I want Tide Liquid.
	And I get deplatformed for having an opinion about a brand?
	It's worse.
	That's what you're telling me.
	It's worse.
	Italy blocked a shipment of the AstraZeneca Oxford vaccine, which was destined for Australia.
	And they said, uh-uh.
	We ordered that first.
	We're taking it.
	There's shenanigans going on, man.
	There's shenanigans here.
	It's so obvious.
	None of this distributed equitably across all countries.
	No.
	It's every man for himself, whoever got paid the most by whichever big pharma company.
	Don't make me laugh.
	And...
	Go on.
	I was watching the different channels.
	There's something called Newsline.
	I think it's a new channel.
	It's like Newsmax.
	It's Newsline.
	I think it's called Newsline.
	Somebody in the chat room can correct me.
	But, and there's, Ashley Banfield has a show on it to clarify things.
	It may have some religious background to it, I'm not sure, but it's extremely slick.
	It's so much slicker than Newsmax, which is amateur hour.
	And so I say, I'm watching this and it looks like it's well produced, the sound is good, everything's good.
	I say, I wonder if these guys are going to last.
	They go to commercial?
	Drug, drug, drug, drug, drug, drug.
	And then after watching seven drug commercials, I said, oh yeah, these guys are going to do just fine.
	They'll be on the air.
	They're not going to give me any information I can find useful, but they'll be on the air, that's for sure.
	There was a German professor who came up with a, what do you call it, an antigen vaccine, which is kind of the old school way of taking the pus out of the smallpox.
	And he's being sued by the German government.
	All right, you shut up.
	You go away.
	And now the FDA is going after ivermectin.
	Oh, very dangerous.
	Oh, yes, the ivermectin thing.
	I didn't clip it.
	I'm going to clip stuff, just to summarize.
	Some guy came on and went over that, said that study's bogus.
	There was one study that says ivermectin doesn't work.
	You might as well just take an aspirin.
	But the study is bogus.
	It's a bogus study.
	And it was paid for by a bunch of drug companies that don't want ivermectin on the market.
	Oh, yes.
	And all of that is orchestrated by one guy.
	And I'd like to give a little bit of exposure to this man since the M5M only has their nose up his butthole.
	He gets awards.
	He's on SNL. It's Anthony Fauci.
	And finally, I was lucky.
	One of our producers found an episode of The Gary Null Show, brand new, as a podcast.
	And Gary Null had Dr.
	Reiner Wulmick on.
	Wulmick.
	And...
	German-American.
	Now he's one...
	This is interesting because he's another one of these medical attorney guys.
	And these medical attorney guys, they're still lawyers.
	So they really don't give a shit.
	In fact, it's better for them if you sue them for saying something because they're lawyers.
	They're like, oh yeah, that's great.
	They know what they're saying and they know how to say it.
	And when I was listening to this interview...
	And I said, oh, okay, I remember, not this guy necessarily, but the institute he worked for where he was doing legal for a treatment for AIDS back in, well, he was doing it much, much earlier, but I think I first heard him in the 80s.
	And what he, when I have a couple of clips here, so you can hear the parallel he draws between Anthony Fauci, same guy, the AIDS crisis, and All of the different issues on the table and how that connects to what's happening today.
	So he actually has a documentary, which I have not seen yet, that should be out.
	And when I find it, I'll put it in the show notes.
	In the 1980s and 90s, Fauci controlled the war on AIDS, and miserably so.
	I was an important part of that.
	In fact, this evening, we are premiering a new film from the Society for Independent Investigative Journalism that shows that at two different centers in New York, there was a successful treatment for AIDS. Successful in the sense that a person would still be HIV positive, but completely healthy.
	There'd be no opportunistic infections or diseases, and AIDS is not a disease.
	AIDS is 30 different diseases that have always existed, but in the presence of HIV, it's called AIDS. In the presence without HIV, it's called pneumocystis or Kaposi's sarcoma or thrush, etc.
	Thrush.
	I've heard of thrush.
	What's thrush?
	Thrush?
	Thrush.
	T-H-R. Thrush.
	Oh, thrush.
	Yeah, medical condition.
	I've heard of it.
	You're going to have to look it up on the book of knowledge.
	Okay, well, I'm looking that up.
	I've heard of it, and I can't remember at all what it is.
	It's not a rock band troll room.
	I've been treating people with AIDS since 1974, ten years before the official announcement.
	I was working with the leading gay physician, Dr.
	Stephen Kaiza, who didn't know what this was and couldn't help him with the medications, but he knew I was doing things with alternative lifestyle, and I got them all well.
	Over 400 people I helped get back to good health, mainly by...
	It's a natural non-toxic means, intravenous vitamin C, intravenous ozone, etc.
	In any case, I also had a center, which was the leading holistic center in the United States.
	I had all board-certified physicians and nurses, dieticians, psychologists, etc.
	But during a 15-year period, we treated...
	1,200 people with full-blown AIDS, all sick when they came.
	During that 15-year period, they all remained healthy, got their health back.
	None died.
	Not a single one of these died.
	By the way, we never charged a single penny to a single patient, not insurance or anything.
	It was free.
	So, if you listen to the whole interview, he's very long and drawn out, and all his credentials are laid out.
	But that's what I remember.
	I remember they were doing that with vitamin C, and, of course, you didn't hear much about it, and that's what he explains here, as they hired, you know, I don't know if it was Hill and Knowlton.
	They hired a top PR firm.
	They said, all right, everybody, press conference.
	They sent out thousands of invites, and, well, yeah.
	And so we can say legitimately, and scientifically, we cured AIDS. We also helped treat AIDS so that a person was healthy, though still HIV positive.
	Now, why is that important?
	Because the person who would not acknowledge this...
	The person who fought against any of this being made public, including where nobody came to a press conference where we had 100 of these individuals with their medical doctors and their medical records and a board of scientists.
	One of the people on that board was David Patterson, Senator Patterson, New York, who would later become Governor Patterson.
	And he said, why aren't the mainstream people looking at natural non-toxic methods?
	Instead, Fauci was promoting AZT, arguably the most dangerous drug ever presented to a person with AIDS. And there were very few deaths before AZT. There was just a skyrocketing of deaths after AZT. There was even a drug, Bactrim, that would help knock out pneumocystis.
	A form of pneumonia in the lungs, he wouldn't advise it.
	And yet, had he advised it, because it worked, the number one cause of death in the first years of the AIDS epidemic would have been stopped.
	And that's how Fauci does it, no matter what he's pushing.
	And it's no wonder that thousands of journalists did not appear at the press conference because they'd cured AIDS, because that's the pharmaceutical advertising business, as we just discussed.
	There is no way they're going to cover that kind of story.
	So let's wrap it all up.
	You can't have 7,000 journalists, including New York Times, Washington Post, et cetera, not show up, not even comment that they were invited on three occasions by one of the top PR firms in the world.
	in America that we hired to do this unless there is a concerted campaign to censor this and not allow that door to be opened to show, oh, gee whiz, they're in all, he's curing people with AIDS or getting them healthy, and no one's died.
	And that's when they jumped in, so, oh, you know, then you must be an AIDS denier.
	I said, no, I'm the only person in the world that's cured AIDS, and I have the scientific validation.
	By the way, that's the documentary independently done.
	Now, look today, we have necessary drugs that are non-toxic, are less toxic than an aspirin, including ivermectin.
	Over 40 scientific peer-reviewed studies show it works.
	We have hydroxychloroquine with zinc and zizromycin.
	It works, and we have over 220 of those studies.
	We have physicians who are mainstream, pro-vaccine.
	They're orthodox as orthodox can be.
	Outstanding reputations.
	MD, PhDs, head of epidemiology at one of the divisions of Yale.
	All of them are being attacked.
	None of their suggestions are being taken.
	They're actually making it impossible in some countries like South Africa to get ivermectin.
	Which has been used there for decades to fight parasitic infections.
	Same is true for hydroxychloroquine.
	You can't get hydroxychloroquine in most states in America.
	That's Anthony Fauci in the CDC. There you go.
	It's parallel.
	It's exactly the same process.
	Discredit everything.
	Listen to me.
	I am Pope Fauci.
	It's disgusting.
	This all began when they allowed advertising of drug companies to advertise on television and the media.
	That would be the simplest fix to a lot of this.
	Maybe the genie's out of the bottle, but...
	It's impossible.
	You could never get this to work.
	Just like I said, I watched this Newsline thing.
	Slick, beautiful, dynamite.
	Looks like it does the job.
	And add, add, add, add, add for big pharma.
	There wasn't anything else.
	It's just like TV Land.
	You know, before we go to bed, say it's like 10 o'clock, flip on TV Land, maybe it's Everybody Loves Raymond, maybe it's Two and a Half Men.
	It doesn't really matter.
	It's just kind of zoning out.
	And, you know, those sitcoms have such a wave that you'd laugh even if you didn't hear it.
	Like, ha, ha, ha.
	What did he say?
	I don't know.
	It's just I was going with the flow of the show.
	It's true though, right?
	That comedic wave of a sitcom is very timed.
	It works incredibly well.
	And every commercial is pharma.
	And it's all stuff that you've never heard of.
	And we have to turn the sound down because if I said before, I'm afraid I'm going to get it.
	If I hear all this stuff day in, day out.
	There is that element.
	You're going to get that stuff.
	There's always the suggestion, the element of the power of suggestion.
	That's why it's better to...
	Hypnotic suggestion.
	They have the music and the...
	Yes!
	The dog barking in the background.
	Yes!
	So if you only watch the video portion, it's okay because it's always animated butterflies and everyone's happy and everything's working and we're walking through the park.
	People are jumping up and down.
	They got no more osteoporosis or psoriasis or tardive dyskinesia.
	Oh gosh, and I feel bad.
	Restless leg syndrome.
	Restless leg syndrome.
	What else do we have?
	What's the multiple voices?
	That's the big one now.
	I don't know.
	Schizophrenia?
	Schizophrenia.
	Schizophrenia.
	When there's ads for schizophrenia on the TV, I know that I'm watching the wrong channel.
	We should play one of those schizophrenia ads again because they're so unbelievable.
	Schizophrenia.
	Unbelievable.
	I have two separate short clips about Fauci.
	I just want to lay this out because this guy needs to be...
	Taken to task by someone.
	It's never going to happen.
	You're beating a dead horse.
	Can I suggest a clip since you're going to play Fauci clips?
	Yeah, sure.
	My favorite clip of Fauci?
	Ooh.
	The don't wear a mask.
	It's stupid to wear a mask clip.
	It's my favorite.
	Because he's dead serious.
	And he later says, oh, well, you know, it was at the moment.
	Bull crap.
	I could hear his voice.
	He's dead serious that people are stupid.
	You're an idiot if you wear a mask.
	Right now in the United States, people should not be walking around with masks.
	You're sure of it?
	Because people are listening really closely to this.
	Right now, people should not be walking around with a mask.
	When you're in the middle of an outbreak...
	Wearing a mask might make people feel a little bit better, and it might even block a droplet.
	But it's not providing the perfect protection that people think that it is.
	And often, there are unintended consequences.
	People keep fiddling with the mask and they keep touching their face.
	And can you get some schmutz sort of staying inside there?
	Of course, of course.
	But when you think masks, you should think of health care providers needing them and people who are ill.
	And we fast forward once again to less than one year later.
	Tonight, Dr.
	Anthony Fauci says he's concerned that a recent drop in infections nationwide has now stalled and could start climbing again.
	New research from the CDC appears to back that up, suggesting that in places where in-person dining is allowed, the death rate from COVID goes up.
	At the same time, scientists at the CDC say they now have evidence that masks work, leading to fewer infections and deaths.
	And by the way, There's something in here that I have a problem with, this bit here.
	The death rate from COVID goes up.
	Back that up, suggesting that in places where in-person dining is allowed...
	So first of all, suggesting, okay, suggesting...
	Appears to back that up.
	Appears to back it up.
	This is good, actually, now that we deconstruct this.
	New research from the CDC appears to back that up, suggesting that in places where in-person dining is allowed, the death rate from COVID goes on.
	Bullshit!
	Yeah, I'm not buying that.
	I have not heard or seen a single report about a restaurant where someone died after contracting COVID from their indoor dining experience.
	And so what research suggests that it appears to be like that?
	Suggests.
	Please.
	Horrible, horrible, horrible people.
	They should not be giving these reports.
	Again, I would refer back to South Africa where they actually look at these things as positive.
	They say, well, the numbers are going down.
	It's been eight weeks.
	We're going to just pull back on all this stuff because it looks good.
	No, no, no.
	Us is, oh, at any minute now, it's going to jump back up.
	We're going to have a fourth surge.
	Fourth surge.
	Uh, now, what is, you know, no longer focused on is where did this come from?
	Was it from the lab?
	You know, it jumped to humans.
	What did it jump from?
	A bat?
	A pangolin?
	And how can you give it to a gorilla and not worry about it jumping back to a pangolin?
	I don't know.
	But, back in 2018...
	Fauci already understood the importance of these types of viruses and was interviewed about it.
	We've been talking about pandemics where people spread it or catch it.
	Do you have any concern or is there any risk that this could be weaponized?
	That, you know, any rogue nation or rogue group would weaponize with viruses?
	Well, there certainly is a risk, and that's the reason why back in 2001, after 9-11, when we had the anthrax attacks, even though that turned out to be a homegrown terrorist, that we put an extraordinary amount of money, investment, in developing a biodefense effort.
	Which is very closely allied with what we do against naturally occurring microbes.
	But in direct answer to your question, there certainly is a risk, which we have to be prepared for, that certain microbes can be weaponized.
	Oh, and was he prepared?
	But there's a part of me that wonders, I mean, there's a lot of trust in terms of people don't go rogue.
	I mean, whether it's with smallpox or anthrax.
	I mean, the trust factor is an important element in this.
	Well, it's...
	It's more complicated than just trust.
	Trust is important.
	But what we've tried to do among the recent...
	Wait a minute.
	What is he saying?
	It's more important than trust.
	I mean, the trust factor is an important element in this.
	Well, it's more complicated than just trust.
	Trust is important.
	What can be more complicated than trust?
	But what we've tried to do among the researchers who are in good faith working in the field is to create what we call a culture of responsibility.
	Meaning you don't do anything reckless.
	You don't do an experiment that might accidentally go awry.
	When you do experiments with agents that could be dangerous to the community, you do it under the appropriate containment facilities.
	And that's the reason why we've built those around.
	Wuhan, baby!
	What?
	He's associated with that place.
	Totally.
	He signed off on it.
	He signed the check.
	And it's considered one of the least secure of all the high-end labs in China.
	Yes.
	Perhaps in the world.
	It's rated poorly.
	Mm-hmm.
	And so they created this thing in the lab.
	It got out and, you know, somebody walked out with it, you know, like Homer Simpson with the atomic rod on his back, pretty much.
	And that's what happened.
	And they don't want to, nobody's going to admit it because it's careless.
	It looks suspicious and I don't know.
	This is a real flaw of the Chinese system, is this inability to, you know, be honest with people.
	Yeah, they're so accustomed to lying, generalizing here, but I think that is kind of something that we know.
	Yeah.
	Okay, a couple more things.
	Oh yeah, probably first, the French are bad.
	French are lame.
	French, no good.
	As you heard there, lots of fear.
	But there's nothing really new here, Florence, because vaccine skepticism runs rather deep in France.
	It sure does.
	France repeatedly tops the charts.
	For instance, in early 2019, there was a global Gallup study on public attitudes towards science and health.
	And you can see here, when asked whether vaccines are safe, French people disagreed the most out of 140 countries.
	33% of people in France disagree that vaccines are safe.
	But did you notice the emphasis?
	I thought it was almost end of show worthy.
	33% of people.
	Testing, testing, testing 1, 2, 3, not without its risks.
	Who knew that this could happen?
	And so close to home.
	New tonight, a woman says a routine COVID nasal swab test has led to excruciating pain and the need for surgery to repair the damage.
	This after Shari Tem went to have a routine COVID test.
	She was in need of a heart diagnostic test and protocol states she had to test negative for COVID before they could run any test.
	I might as well say trigger warning because it triggered me.
	She says the swab was inserted in her nose.
	She instantly felt pain.
	It started from the back of my head, just extended to the front of my head, and just my entire brain was in extreme pain.
	instantly as well there was a fluid just leaking from my nose.
	Shari was leaking spinal fluid.
	A neurologist from Methodist and an ear, nose and throat doctor diagnosed her with pneumocephalus days later.
	This is when there has been a rupture in the dural membrane or the lining that's around the brain, which allows air to enter the space that's normally occupied by the head.
	Experts say it's rare, but they are surprised it happened.
	Patients are asked to take their head back and trajectory.
	It's more parallel to the nostril or the bridge of the nose is what's followed.
	And that's what can bring that swab much higher up and put you in range of potentially, you know, having that COVID swab then rupture.
	Fortunately, there is a procedure to fix the hole.
	That would be a laparoscopy.
	While it's unlikely it'll happen to you, if you feel uncomfortable when getting swabbed, speak up.
	Speak up!
	Excuse me, I have a spinal fluid leaking out of my nose.
	I'd like to speak up.
	Ooh, the San Antonio.
	Which brings back, I'm going to bring back this thing.
	I brought it up once before.
	If the mouth contains so much COVID that any cough or sneeze and sometimes you can be loaded to the gills with COVID in the mouth, why don't you test the mouth for the COVID? Why has it got to be that stupid swab?
	What are you going back there for?
	I agree.
	It certainly makes me not want to let someone else administer one of these tests on me.
	I don't like that.
	Oh, speaking of...
	Well, I have not been tested.
	No, no.
	Well, I have been tested once, but it was just in the front of my nose.
	But it was a Rogan test, so who knows?
	Vacation planned April 6th to April 13th.
	It's the day after my birthday.
	Yeah.
	That's the beauty of it.
	Wait, what?
	You're angry now I'm gone during your birthday week?
	Well, I mean, birthday week is always a good show week.
	I'm so tired.
	I know you're tired, too.
	For your birthday, I bought you a gift.
	Whoa!
	Whoa!
	What's wrong?
	I just dumped over a cup of tea.
	Do you need a moment?
	No, actually, I do need a moment.
	Podcasts are down, everybody!
	Podcasts are down!
	Stand by!
	Stand by!
	I need to swab up this liquid before it falls on any electronic gear.
	Calendar to look at this date, and I knocked over this cup.
	Oh well.
	Alright, you can keep talking.
	Are you sure that was tea?
	Yeah, I'm pretty sure.
	Are you sure it wasn't something else?
	Maybe it's time for a refreshing break?
	If it was time for the refreshing break, you would hear this.
	That's right, ladies and gentlemen!
	Because that's the revenue that keeps on giving If I'm drinking and I am winning If it's in my belly and I feel nice That's the revenue that keeps on giving Some oddest price You get a beer that you taste twice Paps Blue Ribbon!
	That's right, everybody.
	It is the drink of champions in the podcast space.
	It is Paps Blue Ribbon.
	And I'd like to say in the morning to you, and thank you for your courage, John.
	C, where the C stands for COVID psychosis, Dvorak!
	Well, in the morning to you, Mr.
	Adam Curry.
	Also, in the morning to the ships at sea, where somebody bitched that I stopped saying that.
	Yeah, it's important.
	And I don't think we have any more subs in the water.
	I know for a fact we have subs in the water.
	We have lots of submariners.
	Lots of them.
	Lots of them.
	I'm talking about Navy men.
	Yes.
	In the morning to the trolls in the troll room at noagendastream.com.
	Trolls, hands up!
	It is a Sunday.
	Let's see how you did.
	Are you here?
	Woo!
	2193!
	Not bad.
	7 off the high.
	Seven off the high.
	Almost ATH day.
	Good to see you there, trolls.
	See?
	Couple in the Navy.
	Oh, they say they would prefer to be known as seamen.
	Got it?
	Uh-huh.
	The troll rule, the troll room is at noagendastream.com.
	Lots of people in there today hanging out.
	Trolling away, which is the entire point.
	Hand off one-liners.
	Sometimes they work.
	Usually people just sit there and troll, say horrible things, get me aggravated.
	But that's what's so cool about it.
	And you can listen to the show live, any of our shows that are live on the 24-hour day stream.
	And you can always, in concert with your fellow trolls, have a good time, no matter what podcast is playing.
	It's all talk, no commercials.
	And while you're there, ask for an invite.
	We have just a few left for NoAgendaSocial.com as we will just have to open up the federation part.
	We're going to lock down our instance at 10,000.
	Ask for an invite so you can check out our non-algoized federated social network.
	It's very calm on the nerves.
	You go there.
	Oh, I've already read this message.
	That's it.
	You're done.
	Go scroll back to the top and leave.
	There won't be anything for a while.
	NoAgendaSocial.com.
	And in the morning to our artist for episode 1326, this was an interesting random slash magic number episode.
	1326, we had a donation special running for the 3-3-21, which was the day before, which was all threes.
	The show, when posted, and I did not even know this until I was alerted to the fact, total run time of this episode?
	Three hours and 33 minutes on the dot.
	Now you tell me how that works.
	Random number.
	Very random.
	Magic!
	And Darren O'Neill brought us the artwork.
	He was very nice.
	Darren, we had commissioned him since noagendaartgenerator.com was down, which I see is back up today.
	John, you want to give us an update on Sir Paul Couture and how you tracked him down?
	He was in the wind?
	What happened there?
	Or did it just magically come back?
	He magically came back.
	Oh, okay.
	So there's no good story, huh?
	I couldn't get it.
	Well, yeah, there's a couple good stories, but they're not verified.
	Oh, okay.
	I'll bet there was good stories.
	I'll bet there was good stories.
	Yeah, so there's not that much to bitch and moan about other than just thank him for the excellent work.
	Let me see, what was...
	Oh yeah, this was the 33...
	We titled the show Freedom Bracelet.
	It was the 33 Fudge Numbers, which was a perfect, perfect no-agenda piece of art.
	And as many likely fellow artists noticed, much to their chagrin, once again, it was the red background that did it.
	No.
	I don't think so either.
	Technically speaking, the best background for art, or anything if you want to really get attention, is yellow.
	Is that so?
	It's been studied, actually.
	Well, he had a super fudgy star that was in yellow.
	Well, the yellow background for packaging.
	This was studied by Lotus Development when they were in business before IBM bought them.
	And they did a massive study with the aid of...
	It wasn't Hill& Nolton, but it was one of the big PR companies.
	And they determine, and it's been publicized, but people still don't pay attention to it, that your best box, if you're going to sell a box of software nowadays, nobody does that in the day, you want a big yellow box with big black lettering.
	It's just that simple.
	And how does that measure up against Apple with their black and white lettering?
	It will outperform on a blind...
	If it was all the exact same product in those different packaging, the yellow would outperform.
	Outperform it.
	People are attracted to that particular combination.
	Interesting.
	I was talking with producer Jack...
	Who was working on the NFT for the No Agenda show.
	And by now I'm sure you've heard this NFT everywhere, John.
	You can't avoid it.
	It's out of control.
	And I had dinner last night with a top Hollywood executive who happens to live in Austin.
	And his company's doing it too.
	And this is millions and millions of dollars.
	And so Jack has said, look, I've set it up.
	You know, you guys can do this.
	With show art, and he's already set up one example.
	And I thought by myself, so I've been looking into this.
	This is, whereas we thought Bitcoin was Beanie Babies, this NFT stuff, it's truly the analog.
	It is the Beanie Babies of cryptocurrency.
	And it's very scammy.
	And my, after some research, my initial thought was, we really want nothing to do with this.
	And then I thought, wait a minute.
	What if all of the producers, what if we all got in on the scam, because you can program who gets what when you sell it, and we drive this thing up like crazy and sell it all to some suckers who think that this thing is hot, even though it's really just a complete pump and dump by the no agenda nation.
	Yeah.
	Like collusion, full-on insider trading.
	I mean, can we do this?
	Yeah, it's called conspiracy to commit a felony.
	It's not a felony.
	What do you mean?
	It will be.
	No, we can get it under the wire if we do it now.
	You're no fun.
	I'm game for this, by the way.
	I'm not completely objecting to it.
	Oh, okay.
	So, we've got to work it out a little bit.
	But, you know, in essence, we just have to get people buying and selling this and tapping it up a little bit every single time.
	And until some sucker comes in, I mean, you have to have trust in the group, right?
	You have to have trust that if someone buys something for $500, that there will be someone there who's going to buy it for $501 because that person will know.
	So we all have to have some kind of code so we can identify fellow travelers.
	And the minute you're above, let's say, $10,000...
	You sound like you're starting the Communist Party the way you're doing this.
	I'm sorry.
	I'm exit strategy.
	I need a vacation!
	Noagendaartgenerator.com for all your NFT joy.
	And thank you to all the artists who have already started piling, and I can't wait to see what we can choose for artwork after today for episode 1327.
	Now let's thank our executive producers and associate executive producers.
	They are one of the tees in the time, the talent, and treasure that we love to receive in our Value for Value network.
	And we kick it off with...
	Who do we kick it off with here?
	Dame Amy.
	Yeah, she's in Clive, Louisiana.
	Alright.
	$567.89.
	She's our number one donor today.
	By my accounting, this donation pushes me over to the level to become a baroness.
	Please update my title to Dame Amy Baroness of the Central Iowa Bike Trails.
	What's it say states Louisiana?
	I don't know.
	She's in Iowa.
	A large severance package meant larger than usual income tax.
	Maybe an IA turned into an LA on the spreadsheet.
	These aren't put in by hand.
	Oh.
	Hmm, okay.
	It's magic.
	Um...
	I don't know.
	I mean, some people have these accounts from...
	You know, it's like Fugizoto is still in Missouri, according to these notes.
	Maybe he really has been in Missouri in this whole thing about Saudi Arabia.
	He's just a fiction writer.
	He's just a hoax.
	And then I was in the great...
	Photoshopping a few old photos.
	Dave, Amy wants to hear.
	Manning, boom, shakalaka, little girl.
	Boom, shakalaka, little girl.
	Yay, TPP, jobs, karma.
	Bingo, boom.
	Wait, wait, let's finish reading her note.
	She's the number one donor.
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	She repeats it at the bottom.
	I thought you'd already read her whole note.
	No, it wasn't even close.
	So sorry.
	She said she meant a user of a larger tax return and wanted to share some of the wealth.
	She's giving us, by the way, just important, $567.89, which is part of a severance pay, because she's been unemployed since January of 2020.
	Wow.
	Every time a producer comments in a note that job karma works, my husband reminds me to donate.
	Thanks for the sanity and media deconstruction.
	The best podcast in the universe has definitely kept my amygdala in check.
	Hugs and kisses.
	Dame Amy.
	Soon to be Baroness of the Central Iowa bike trails.
	Well...
	Your husband is right!
	Bingo!
	Boom, boom, shakalaka!
	Boom, boom, boom, shakalaka!
	Boom, boom, shakalaka!
	Boom, shakalaka!
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, that's a vote for jobs.
	That was actually pretty funny.
	I liked the combination of boom shakalakas.
	It's cool, right?
	Yeah.
	Douglas Garcia comes in next at $456.
	$45678.
	With this donation, I achieved the lofty pinnacle, I can't read today apparently, of knighthood.
	See accounting?
	Please dub me Sir Douglas of the Forest.
	Thanks for all that you two do.
	Aw.
	Thank you.
	You'll be welcome.
	Heather Rodriguez in Stockton, California.
	333.33.
	Been a while since my last donation show at 1275 where I was able to get my blazing hot husband his knighthood but failed to mention his name.
	Just his title.
	Well, you're like that actress with the big mouth.
	We always go through this.
	It's not Julia Roberts.
	No, no.
	No, it's the big mouth.
	She won two Academy Awards.
	One of them with...
	We just did this.
	She has a big mouth.
	She's got a big giant mouth.
	Yeah.
	The one who was doing...
	Gina Davis.
	She won her Academy Awards.
	Hilary Swank.
	We got it.
	She won the Academy Award and forgot to thank her husband that got divorced a week later.
	I'm laughing just because I'm lucky.
	Believe me.
	But I failed to mention his name, just his title, leaving Adam with a pregnant pause that made us both chuckle.
	Yeah, because it went through my ass.
	I know.
	I was triggered by it.
	Night Dag Bloodbane of the Mad River Tyson needs a birthday shout-out for March 11th.
	We got it.
	Thursday, I decided to donate for Sunday's show instead, as I can't enjoy the live Thursday shows, though I do listen to Pump Up for Sunday.
	Can I get a respict and a shaken nut courtesy of John?
	Love you both, Heather.
	R-E-S-P-I-C-T. Then he makes a fist around the night.
	There you go.
	Rodriguez!
	Justin Price in Blacksburg, Virginia, 333.33.
	In the morning, gentlemen.
	And...
	Wait, wait.
	This is Justin Price.
	You said Heather Rodriguez.
	We just did her.
	No, I said Rodriguez.
	I said Justin Price in Blacksburg, Virginia.
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	I didn't hear it.
	In the morning, gentlemen and fellow, or tello in his case, producers.
	I'd like to thank, or to thank, God.
	I'm going to throw with this one.
	I am to thank you for the awesome environment that No Agenda and the No Agenda could see the unity provides for the universe.
	Enclosed is my second donation.
	I made my first donation.
	Back in October when former President Trump was in the hospital with Dorona.
	I'm a 30-year-old millennial in the college town of Blacksburg, Virginia, home of Dr.
	Lindsey Marr of Virginia Tech, who told a local news station why two face masks are better than one.
	What a bunch of crap.
	I would like to request the jingles.
	He also did a little emoticon.
	You see it just in front of you, what a bunch of crap.
	He's got the positions reversed.
	This is basically two eyeballs with furrowed brows.
	Oh, you know, interesting you see that.
	So what we're seeing here is a colon and then a parenthesis close.
	No, no.
	That's what we would normally see.
	But he has it reversed and has the parenthesis closed followed by the colon.
	I've seen millennials do this.
	This is something that comes with the generation.
	Really?
	Yeah, I've seen it.
	I've seen it several times.
	What's it supposed to mean?
	I don't know, but you see the same thing with millennials putting the dollar sign behind the number instead of in front.
	Have you seen that?
	That's interesting.
	That's rampant.
	I just thought it was a typo since this note is filled with typos.
	No, no.
	Well, it looks like a furrowed brow.
	I would like to request the jingles listed in order from left to right at the top of this letter.
	I don't see them.
	I don't see them either.
	Oh, wait.
	Go ahead.
	Keep reading.
	Maybe that's the attached note.
	Maybe I have to get it from there.
	I'm currently in school.
	There is no attached note, is there?
	No, no.
	Eric did send...
	There was a separate note that came in.
	It could be the one.
	Oh, here it is.
	Justin Price.
	Oh, okay.
	I'll just...
	Oh, okay.
	I'll give you what they are.
	Yeah, he...
	Oh, I see.
	It's okay.
	You keep reading.
	I see him here.
	I'll do him.
	Oh, okay.
	Good.
	I got it.
	I got it.
	I would like to request the jingles list, blah, blah, blah.
	I'm currently in school for a computer science degree at WGU, Western Governors University.
	WGU is an excellent online school.
	And yes, it is online all the time and not just during the pandemic.
	For anyone wanting to pursue a college degree for a very affordable cost, then just about every...
	I'd like to check out their accreditation, if you don't mind.
	But I'll assume that you've done that.
	For anyone wanting to pursue a college degree for a very affordable cost, in just about every other college, I would recommend WGU.
	They charge a flat rate per term around $3,500, hardly cheap.
	This is an excellent deal, and you can take as many classes as you want.
	Well, that's cool.
	And each term without an increase in tuition.
	The college WGU has provided me value for my education in computer science, just as the No Agenda Show has provided me value in many ways, especially shrinking my amygdala.
	Hope this helps anyone listening out there who may be decided on going to college.
	It is much better value than other universities.
	I want to shout out to my little brother, Luke.
	Hey, Luke!
	Please add me to the birthday list.
	We got you on it.
	I'm pretty sure.
	Thank you for your courage.
	I hope this arrives for the show 1326.
	I did not, but it doesn't matter if it arrives later for another show since I always listen to each show since Adam's on JRE. Oh, yay.
	So is this now, is that an official Rogan donation then?
	Nah, it's too late.
	Okay.
	He wanted whole load Fauci wheeze and a TPP jobs karma.
	I'm going to give you the whole load today.
	Really?
	And Josh, you've got karma.
	Richard Bamsburger in Elko, Elko, Nevada.
	Uh, he's also came in with $33.
	What?
	My friend Grant in Placerville called me out.
	Please de-douche me with the shower of shame.
	You've been de-douche.
	Shower of shame?
	I'm a second-level rogue in a referral.
	Credit where credit is due.
	You guys bring, excuse me, smiles, an increasingly rare event in this down is up, black is white.
	Can I say that?
	World.
	Keep fighting the good fight.
	Biscuit.
	Massive dumps.
	China...
	China...
	Sil.
	Sivuple.
	It's French, you know?
	Oh, China Sivuple.
	Sivuple.
	And, uh, Rick and Elko.
	Yeah.
	I don't know of any China Sivuple.
	I know China is asshole.
	They always give me a biscuit on my birthday.
	They did dumps.
	They call them dumps.
	Big, massive dumps.
	Donald Trump don't trust China.
	China is asshole.
	Okay.
	Robert Vogel in Franklin, North Carolina, 266.
	Franklin, North Carolina.
	Sir Robert, the Smoky Mountain Brass gents, this donation comes to you for your continuing hilarious and excellent coverage of Hera Fauci, Uncle Joe, and the COVID fear mongers.
	Additionally, a birthday call out for me, turning 66 on March 8th.
	That's 33 times two.
	Only a few short years behind JCD. For jingles, how about a classic Sharpton and a Jen Psaki?
	Circle back, if you have one.
	Cheers from solidly red North Carolina's 11th district with the youngest congressman in Congress.
	That's right.
	There's no real conflict!
	I'll circle back if there's more I can share with you.
	I'll circle back with you if there's more to come.
	I'll have to just circle back with you.
	We can circle back.
	I'm happy to circle back with you.
	I can circle back.
	I will have to circle back on that one.
	Circle back.
	We'll circle back with you.
	It's an interesting question, but we'll circle back.
	I'm happy to circle back, but I'll have to circle back.
	It's a good question, but we'll circle back with you on this today.
	We will certainly circle back with you more directly.
	I hate to disappoint you, but I will have to circle back.
	Secret Agent Paul, everybody.
	Circle back.
	Sir John of South London is next on the list, and he's in London, UK. 253.33.
	Here's my donation of 253.33.
	This now takes me to barren status, accounting below.
	No jingles, just a big karma.
	Thanks.
	Bye.
	In regards, Sir John Kumar and Sir John of South London.
	Massive.
	You've got karma.
	Three to go.
	I'm a pilgrim in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
	$200.
	Hey, guys.
	I continue to work towards Damehood over halfway now.
	When I first started listening a few years back, John was starting every show with a Plato say.
	Oh, yeah.
	No, no.
	Confucius.
	Confucius say.
	Right.
	Nugget of wisdom.
	Any chance you have one on hand, John?
	No.
	Sorry.
	No.
	We had tons of them, and they were on a list, and I don't have the list handy.
	If I read these notes in advance, I may have dug one up.
	I would like to, I'll dig one up for you later, maybe.
	Maybe in a future show.
	I'll tell you what.
	The next time you donate, as you head toward your damehood, I will have one for you.
	You'll have one ready.
	You'll whip it out.
	Yeah, I'll have a couple ready.
	I would also love some Rev.
	Al mint tulips and a homeschooling goat karma, as I instruct our two oldest human resources, and Corral, the younger two, all of them are total chaos bringers.
	Every day, all day, it's like a party.
	I bet.
	I would like to let any Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania slaves know that my husband, Sir Andrew, is hosting the No Agenda Best Chili Cook-Off in the Universe meet-up at our house on March 21st.
	Check the meet-up site for info.
	Thanks for the infosainment.
	Love you, mean it.
	Oh, there you go.
	Dealing with terrorists.
	These little people ruining your home.
	You got it, Emma.
	You got it.
	They sit out on the sidewalk sipping mint tulips.
	Ha ha ha!
	You've got karma.
	Mint tulips.
	Nothing like that.
	I have a mint tulips.
	I love mint tulips.
	Nurse Anonymous comes in with 200 bucks, and she says she needs a de-ducing right away.
	A de-juicing?
	Whoa.
	A de-juicing?
	You've been de-douched.
	Shut up, it's science and heavenly farts if you have it.
	Thanks in advance.
	Hey guys, keep me anonymous.
	I am a curious nurse and love research.
	The story of Colorado Bad Chad's 30-year-old friend getting type 1 diabetes piqued my intrigue.
	The current school of thought is T1 DM, type 1 diabetes mellitus, is an autoimmune disease triggered by a viral insult.
	Whoa, whoa, whoa!
	A viral insult?
	Hey, douchebag!
	Hey, you!
	Is that a viral insult?
	And your mother, too.
	The most likely culprit appears to be a type of enterovirus, which are the same types as SARS-CoV-2.
	Most have heard that the vaccine is RNA-based and viruses are essentially little pieces of RNA DNA in a protein envelope.
	These little fellows, enteroviruses, can also cause viral encephalitis and severe symptoms are confusion, speech and hearing difficulty.
	We had that with our ENT guy.
	Loss of sensation and seizures were...
	which could fit Chad's complaints.
	I'm not saying the vaccine did it, but you can form your own hypothesis.
	Yeah.
	Boots on the Ground Report.
	No mask mandate in my state for about three weeks now, and the COVID cases take up only six beds out of 200, and our hospital now allows visitors in.
	Anyways, keep up the great work, gents.
	Love to you all...
	I'd love to all the nurses and EMSs out there, thanks to PubMed, National Library of Medicine articles, viral infections as potential triggers of...
	Oh, that's where she got it from.
	...of type 1 diabetes, PubMed, NIH.gov.
	And she gives a bunch of citations, which I'm not going to read because nobody's going to...
	Just go look that up.
	Jingles.
	Jingles.
	I'm sorry.
	Go on.
	Sorry.
	Well, I was going to say she used the anyways, and I was alerted to a post by Merriam-Webster that anyways is, in fact, proper use of the word.
	Anyways is proper.
	It is correct.
	You can use this.
	Yeah.
	That's annoying.
	I think so.
	And then people add a Z to it.
	That'll probably be okay too.
	With Merriam-Webster, they go along with anything.
	Two people used it in South Carolina.
	I'm going for it.
	I like the Z. Hey, this is our plan.
	We're going to get it to Z. And we'll make an NFT of any ways with a Z. Might as well make it a Z. It sounds the same.
	It sounds the same, yeah.
	I like it.
	Okay.
	As you jingles, what does she have here?
	She had de-douching, shut up, it's science, and heavenly farts.
	And the karma?
	I guess so.
	Shut up already!
	It's science!
	Before we begin, let's pray.
	Let's pray.
	Heavenly farts.
	Heavenly Father, our hearts.
	You've got karma.
	You've got to go to hell.
	Probably.
	Richard Bradowski is our last...
	Associate Executive Producer from Smyrna, Georgia.
	200.
	He needs a pew-pew of Fauci-Wees.
	Good night.
	Left Nut and Karma.
	Traditional Jobs Karma.
	Two years ago, I donated this amount asking for Jobs Karma because I was up for a promotion.
	Oh.
	One hour after clicking Donate Now, I received a call saying I received the promotion.
	Ha!
	Let's hope Jobs Karma works the same way again.
	Thank you for your pointing out the improper use of anyways.
	Joke's on you, buddy.
	Little did you know.
	Richard, you're wrong.
	No, in fact, he's correct, because the proper use is with a Z, or for you British, a Z. Zed.
	Anyways, that is now the way to do it.
	I'd stop myself from using it.
	Well, you can go back to it, but use the Z. Use the Zed.
	Zed.
	Zed.
	If you say that to someone, excuse me, you spell that with a Zed, they'll be so confused that they'll just believe you.
	Oh, they will.
	Oh, oh, he's an Anglophile.
	What?
	Zed, okay.
	I wonder if that idea's in beta.
	Beta.
	Ha!
	Also, vaccine.
	We say vaccine.
	They say vaccine.
	Why?
	Well, I like to know about some oregano.
	Who said oregano?
	And herbs.
	On the H. Oh my God.
	We're going to get in trouble.
	We go on and on.
	Yeah.
	I also thank you for keeping my amygdala small and all this time I thought it was just cold.
	Here's to my future attempts of hitting people in the mouth but getting blocked on social media instead.
	Oh well.
	It happens.
	Pew!
	Pew!
	Good night, left nut.
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs!
	Pew pew.
	And that's our group of associate executive producers and executive producers for show 1327.
	And you can now use these titles as exec or associate executive producer for episode 1327.
	You can put it anywhere.
	Well, first of all, you can present it anywhere credits are accepted.
	And this works on IMDB. Go ahead.
	Look them up.
	You'll see several Hollywood types who have producerships.
	Um...
	You can use it on your LinkedIn.
	It does tend to impress people.
	You can put it on your business card.
	Business card.
	Vistaprint, baby.
	That's right.
	Plop it right out there and just say it.
	And, you know, you can pick up chicks.
	Yeah.
	You just say, you know, what's wrong?
	Well, I'm an executive producer, and here's my card.
	And if only I could find an unknown, this would be great.
	That's how you do it, everybody.
	So, thank you for your treasure.
	If you'd like to support us for the following show, which will be on Thursday, we welcome that.
	Everybody, come to our donation page, because you can do a lot of different things.
	Thank you again for your time, your talent, and your treasure in our Value for Value podcast experiment!
	Our formula is this.
	We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
	Order.
	Order.
	Shut up, slave.
	I just like to finish off the vaccine thing with the final, final clip, which is from Tech Meme, the Tech Meme podcast.
	So this is going to be one of these jacked podcasts where everything's cool and exciting and great features.
	Oh, and there's unboxing, I bet!
	Gorilla Glass.
	Unboxing.
	What else do we have?
	Hands-on.
	First time.
	Oh, yeah.
	Integration.
	Really cool features.
	And we already discussed that the vaccine passport should be foreboding until we have something that is officially approved by the Federal Drug Administration, Food and Drug Administration.
	Until then, it should not happen.
	But it can't go fast enough for these techno boys.
	Listen how cool it's going to be!
	And Mike Murphy at Protocol takes a look at the race to build vaccine passports.
	If the prognosticators are right, and at least here in the U.S., the supply ramp-up is going so well that hopefully every adult that wants a vaccine can get one by June.
	The next question will become...
	Well, summer vacations?
	How can you prove that you have a vaccine in order to get on a plane or go to a concert or do whatever?
	Should it be a piece of paper, an app on your phone, QR codes, maybe something on the blockchain?
	Mike looks at all these possible solutions.
	Quote, It's entirely possible that as more people start to get vaccinated, vaccine passports start to become the norm.
	You walk to work, still masked, of course, scan a QR code reader in the lobby and are let in.
	You go out for lunch and your loyalty card app has a discount for in-store shoppers verifying they're vaccinated.
	Your concert ticket is also tied to health pass information that you shared earlier in the day with Ticketmaster.
	But there are more than a few hurdles ahead of the companies rushing to turn these concepts into realities, end quote.
	Something I learned from this piece is that places like Hawaii are considering requiring visitors from the mainland to have some form of vaccination passport, so keep that in mind when considering your summer plans.
	Yes, it's going to be so great.
	It's going to integrate with my loyalty points.
	It's going to be green so that I get rewards, and I will have to lock down less days in the future because I was a good doobie.
	I was a green doobie.
	That's where it's going.
	That's what this thing's going to be used for.
	Green passport.
	Reject the green passport.
	RGP. I can't believe these guys.
	They're giddy about this.
	Yeah.
	Oh, the Jacks.
	Oh, it's so cool.
	Oh, yeah.
	That paper he refers to, I put it in the show notes.
	It's interesting, talking about how this is all going to integrate.
	And the kicker is, the funniest thing, and we can't bring it up often enough, one of the driving forces now behind the back end of what is supposed to be the definitive vaccine passport is none other than the people tracking company themselves,
	IBM. And for those of you who are not familiar with the history, IBM built machines and punch cards specifically in World War II for the Nazi party to track Jews.
	In fact, isn't a friend of yours who wrote the book on it?
	Or did the documentary?
	Yeah, the big book, yeah.
	What's his name again?
	Ed Black.
	Ed Black.
	Yeah.
	And no one brings this up.
	Except us.
	No, of course they don't.
	They used to.
	They used to be brought up a lot.
	I used to write for Ed Black.
	He used to run the OS2 magazine.
	It's another one of those little things.
	I don't even have it on my bio.
	I probably should put it on there.
	Yeah.
	But, yeah.
	Good guy.
	Is he still alive?
	I believe so.
	He keeps doing the same kind of...
	He does a lot of deep dives into things that are like...
	He pops up every 10 years of the book?
	Yeah, because he's one of those guys who, instead of having the CIA write his books for him.
	Yes, which is one way to go.
	You could do that.
	It'd be a lot more productive.
	You can be very productive.
	You can do a book a year that way.
	Yeah.
	But since he doesn't have the CIA writing his books for him, his books come out once every five or six years because he actually has to write the damn thing.
	Yeah, what else has he done then?
	What other...
	Oh, you know, I've done a half dozen books that are really outstanding.
	I don't have the titles at the top of my head.
	And he hasn't sent me an autographed copy of any of them.
	Oh, well, he's off the list.
	He's 71.
	I'll track him down and get copies.
	Okay.
	Good, good, good.
	I think it's time for a little Joe Biden.
	It's Sunday.
	Sunday means Biden.
	It is.
	Hold on.
	Don't I have a jingle for Joe?
	Yeah, here we go.
	This is it.
	He's a little bit creepy, but mostly just sleepy.
	It's sleepy, creepy Uncle Joe.
	Joe!
	Come on, man.
	An elephant.
	A lion.
	Physical and mental filth, as well as my mental filth.
	Corn pop.
	You're a lion dog-faced pony soldier.
	There we go.
	Yeah.
	There's your jingle.
	Set you up.
	Could be worked on.
	First of all, we do have the same old, same old with Joe.
	He has these, let's play this clip, Biden empty chairs breakfast.
	Oh, the dead grandma again?
	For over a year, the American people were told they were on their own.
	We've seen how hard that has been on so many Americans.
	As of last night, 519,064 lives lost to the virus.
	That many empty chairs this morning at the breakfast table.
	How many chairs are in this breakfast room?
	A lot.
	Wow.
	You know, this to me is when President Trump said bullshit or other things that people just aghast that their children had heard this.
	This, what President Biden is doing, that's, you know, there are children who are so afraid that if they do something wrong, if their mask slips off their nose, that grandma will die, or maybe even their parents.
	There's report after report you can find about this.
	It's just terrorizing.
	It's really, it makes me mad.
	But there was a little thing he added.
	At the very end of that, he goes on to say something else.
	This is the Empty Chairs 400.
	And this one, you know, if this was the Washington Post, it was Trump.
	Oh, lies, lies.
	He's so wrong.
	But listen to this and tell me where you think the mistake is being made here.
	Gone.
	More than 400 small businesses closed unnecessarily.
	Millions of people out of work through no fault of their own.
	I want to emphasize that.
	Through no fault of their own.
	Wow, 400 businesses?
	Was that worldwide?
	400 businesses, yeah, shuttered.
	Does anyone correct him at least?
	No, no, I'm the only one that, it seems to me, that digs any of this stuff up and says something about it.
	He said 400 businesses have shut down.
	No, I should make my own list of lies.
	Okay, hold on, now I gotta, we have to talk about something, because now the media is really, I mean, they're not even correcting, they're not even saying, the president, of course, meant, you know, something else for us, whatever he meant.
	Kamala, Vice President Harris, is...
	Always pretty nearby.
	And I think, I don't think Joe is going to make it till the end of summer.
	They're going to pull him.
	You can put that in the book.
	Now, I have not done this yet, but I see Joe up there.
	There's a number of cases where she's standing to his right behind him, wearing all black and a face mask with her black hair.
	She looks like a terrorist.
	She has a hammer and sickle.
	No, she looks like Al-Qaeda, so I'm going to take that and Photoshop in the Al-Qaeda flag.
	No, I'm sorry, ISIS. The ISIS flag behind the two of them, and it'll look just like an ISIS meeting.
	Can you Photoshop in just a random person in an orange jumpsuit?
	Yeah, of course I can.
	I'm fire?
	I don't want to overdo it.
	Okay, well, it's just a suggestion.
	Artistic creativity, you know.
	So the 400, you know, nobody says anything about that.
	So let's listen to a couple of sentences here.
	Oh, he did sentences?
	Yeah, he actually does them.
	This was kind of confusing.
	He corrected himself, so I'm not going to give him too much grief on this one.
	The last one I have, this is the second to the last, this is the Biden three kids clip.
	For a typical middle class family of four, husband and wife working, making $100,000 a year total with three kids, they'll get $5,600.
	I mean, with two kids, they'll get $5,600.
	And they'll be on the way soon.
	They get five or four or two, but help is coming.
	He starts off a family of four with three kids.
	That's what he said.
	Play it again.
	For a typical middle-class family of four, husband and wife working, making $100,000 a year total with three kids.
	That's five.
	That's not a family of four.
	That's five, Joe.
	They'll get $5,600.
	I mean, with two kids, they'll get $5,600.
	They'll be on the way soon.
	Be on the way soon.
	But he always corrects it down the road, which is interesting.
	There's got to be some mechanism, either in his brain, which is the most likely, I would say.
	In his brain.
	He's slow.
	Yeah.
	Sadly, we just had that again with the actress who I... Hilary Swank.
	I'm not going to forget her now.
	It will.
	No.
	There is just age stuff going on.
	It ruins the bit, if you remember her name.
	That's right, man.
	It's a bit.
	Yeah, sure.
	It's a bit.
	Shtick.
	Shtick.
	Yeah.
	Good set, John.
	Good set.
	Okay, now this is the one that just, this is the real eye roller.
	I just got a big kick out of this.
	This is the WTF clip.
	The vast majority of economists, left, right, and center, from Wall Street to the...
	Private economic polling initiatives.
	Whoa!
	That was the doozy of all doozies.
	I'd say bend over.
	You deserve this one.
	Clip of the day.
	Wow, he couldn't even say private equity.
	He said polling.
	Initiatives.
	Initiatives.
	Repeat.
	Repeat.
	The vast majority of economists, left, right, and center, from Wall Street to the private...
	You know what?
	When he says from Wall Street, to me, the next sentence would be, to shining sea.
	And that's almost what it sounds like.
	The vast majority of economists, left, right, and center, from Wall Street to shining sea.
	Private economic polling initiatives.
	The private economic polling initiatives.
	The peppy.
	That's some sort of economist?
	The private economic polling initiatives?
	Well, before we laugh at the old man, let's just look it up.
	We could be dumb.
	Private polling...
	Wait.
	Polling...
	Was it private economic?
	Economic.
	Or was it economic polling initiatives?
	We need to understand what the President is saying.
	The mainstream media is not helping us.
	Private economic polling initiatives.
	Okay.
	Private economic polling initiatives.
	You know, it's probably a thing.
	We're probably just idiots.
	It could be, but I don't think so.
	Business and Economics Polling Initiative.
	That's Florida Atlantic University.
	That doesn't seem very...
	No.
	No.
	The only thing that pops up is the transcript of the president.
	It's the number one hit.
	It is remarked by President Biden on Senate Passage.
	Wow.
	He made something up completely.
	We should just start that organization.
	Yes, we're endorsed by President Biden.
	What would it do?
	That's what I'd like to know.
	Charge money to write newsletters.
	Come on, John.
	You know how we do this.
	It's not a bad idea.
	Because we can do polling.
	Biden's already blessed us.
	Private Economic Polling Initiatives.
	Yes, hi, I'm Adam Curry.
	I'm a co-founder of the Private Economic Polling Initiatives.
	And we've done a poll.
	And we do that in a very sophisticated manner, in what we call the Trolleroom.
	We have a special system, Trolleroom.
	And we just ask our trolls what they want.
	This is good, man.
	This is good.
	Kamala on deck.
	She's on deck.
	She's dressed like a ninja more than a terrorist.
	And she'll just be there all of a sudden.
	She's already taking calls.
	She's calling Bebe.
	Hey Bebe, it's Kamala.
	You know, because Joe was not available.
	KH. KH. KH. Oh, do you think that's what it is?
	Hey Bebe.
	It's gotta be.
	Hey Bebe, it's KH. I know KH. So Biden doesn't do the press conferences yet.
	Still not done one.
	But Psaki's there.
	She's doing it.
	And she gets a little miffed about this particular one, this question that comes out of the blue.
	This is Jen Psaki on immigration and Trump.
	A lot of Americans are saying that the surges are happening under President Biden's watch after he reversed some previous policy.
	So does the administration take any accountability for what's happening?
	Who are the Americans?
	Well, I know you don't want our answer to him, but the former president just released a statement saying that the Biden administration must act immediately to end the border nightmare that they have unleashed on Tarnation.
	Former President Trump?
	Yes.
	We don't take our advice or counsel from former President Trump on immigration policy, which was not only inhumane, but ineffective over the last four years.
	We're going to chart our own path forward, and that includes treating children with humanity and respect and And ensuring they're safe when they cross our borders.
	Children.
	17, 18, 19, 21-year-old men.
	Children.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	No, she's not happy about that.
	I got two more Saki ones you want to hear.
	Yeah, no, we love hearing about Jen.
	Here's Saki's whoops mix-up.
	It's addressing the threat of climate, whether it is economic partnership and relationships, and we'll continue to do that.
	We also have conversations about access to COVID, access to vaccines, and...
	You got one!
	Nice!
	I got one!
	Nice.
	Well, hold on a second.
	I've got to relabel this one so that I know that it's part of the mega mix.
	I don't know what your labels were.
	I would have used it.
	Oh, COVID gaffe.
	It's that simple.
	COVID gaffe.
	Yes, it's literally that simple.
	And then there's this other one which just became a different story, which I did some research on, because it's interesting to me.
	This is the question I was asked about.
	This is the most recent press conference, by the way.
	This was asked about the Microsoft breach, the big exchange server.
	Oh, yeah, the exchange server.
	Yeah, it was a big deal.
	Something happened.
	30,000 exchange servers, at least minimum, according to real experts, were affected.
	I guess we should just say that Microsoft is a big government supplier.
	Governments all around the world.
	The Exchange server is in many ways the living, breathing heart of an organization, particularly when you're using Microsoft products because everything ties into the Exchange server.
	And are you going like that?
	Yeah, because I can't find my sheet that's got my Cribs notes on this problem.
	You go look and I'll keep talking.
	Talk as much as you can.
	Oh, never mind.
	Why should I ask?
	Come on!
	Let me get some info out there!
	Everything's tied into Exchange Server.
	The teams, the meetings, the calendaring, all of this stuff, all messaging.
	You ask any dude named Ben, hey, how much fun did you have configuring Exchange Server?
	And you'll find out how much fun they have doing it.
	It is daunting.
	But if that gets compromised, I mean, just imagine what you can really get on email.
	And, you know, for some reason, Microsoft, I don't think, builds in encryption automatically.
	Why would they do that as a government contractor?
	So what did you have here on your crib?
	Yeah.
	Microsoft attributed the exchange server hacking operation to Chinese state-sponsored actors they dubbed Hafnium.
	Hafnium?
	The researchers who spoke to Brian Krebs claimed as many as 100,000 servers may have been breached.
	More than 100,000 is a little more than 30.
	Wow.
	Hammond noted that the breaches appeared to be so untargeted, I guess it was just a shotgun effect, that several servers appeared to host more than one version of, in other words, they've gotten multiple versions of this problem.
	It's a web shell.
	You mean variants?
	And it's called the China Chopper.
	Nice!
	Now, the reason I mention this is because...
	Yeah, we know why.
	Well, no, actually you don't.
	Yeah, I do.
	But go ahead.
	The reason I mention this is because here's a question that Saki's asked about it, and I only have 52 seconds of this clip, but I can assure you that the entire discussion, which didn't go that long, maybe three minutes, she never once mentioned China.
	She refused to mention China.
	Exactly.
	Just a couple on technology.
	You had a statement out from Jake Sullivan last night on the Microsoft-related breach.
	I'm just curious if that affected any government computers, departments, agencies, and any more color detail around it.
	Sure.
	And for anyone who didn't see National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan's tweet last night, he spoke to the Microsoft breach that's been reported.
	But this is a significant vulnerability that could have far-reaching impacts.
	First and foremost, this is an active threat.
	And as the National Security Advisor tweeted last night, everyone running these servers, government, private sector, academia needs to act now to patch them.
	We are concerned that there are a large number of victims and are working with our partners to understand the scope of this.
	So it's an ongoing process, Trevor, I would say.
	Okay, so why not pin it on Russia?
	Why aren't they doing the Russia thing?
	It's too late.
	They didn't have this one under control.
	This one's real.
	Microsoft already said it was China.
	They blew it, yeah.
	And now the Biden administration, they won't even mention China in any negative sense.
	Well, I feel that, you know, you should treat this virus as any other viral insult.
	And they should talk about variants, not versions, variants, and it should be racist to say the Chinese virus.
	China Chopper, super racist.
	China Chopper.
	But it's a great show title.
	We all know that.
	Feels good.
	Feels real good there.
	Damn.
	Jen.
	Although, you know, I'm still kind of leaning toward Bojo the Jabber.
	Bojo the Jabber.
	It's short enough.
	I want to do a little fake news.
	There's something I can prove is fake.
	Fake news.
	Just to show you how bad journalism is.
	It has a name when you read something in the newspaper that you are an expert at, or it's about you, and it's wrong, and therefore you can never take any news story seriously again.
	Isn't there a term for that?
	Yeah, it's called I Won't Be Fooled Again.
	Okay.
	The Minnesota Post wrote a very long and glowing story about, in their business section, the rise and fall of the Gopher Protocol.
	What?
	Yes.
	Why?
	Because it was developed at University of Minnesota.
	Okay.
	And now this is not a brand new story, but it went viral all of a sudden.
	You were the king of gopher.
	Thank you.
	So this is my point.
	And it's a very long article and they've got pictures and everything.
	Now, just so everyone knows, Tim Berners-Lee invented the idea of hyperlinking and the Gopher protocol was one of the first ones to really implement it at scale.
	And when you logged into Gopher and you type in your terminal Gopher and it'll bring up a top level list.
	Now, you could manipulate that, but if it was your university, it would have all these different places you could go to, just a list.
	And it was not Non-GUI, by the way.
	No, it was arrow.
	It was arrow keys or your JFK, you know, your HJKL keys.
	So people use the arrows.
	So if you tap, you know, arrow down, it goes down to the right.
	It'll go to the right to whatever that link was.
	And I loved it because there was no web at the time.
	That was like, holy shit, I'm connecting to a whole different computer seamlessly because I understood what was happening.
	And so I registered MTV.com.
	We've told that story a million times.
	And I set up a Gopher server.
	And I just had little pages of stuff and a couple of pictures.
	And it was just kind of a fun little project.
	Now, let me read to you what the Minnesota Post...
	Now, not that they called me.
	They put a picture of me in there and everything.
	They did?
	They put a picture of you?
	Yeah, and I'll tell you why.
	Because you're the only known user of Gopher?
	Here it is.
	In the years that followed, the future seemed obvious.
	The number of Gopher users expanded at orders of magnitude more than the World Wide Web.
	Gopher developers held gatherings around the country called Gopher Cons and issued a Gopher t-shirt worn by MTV VJ Adam Curry when he announced the network's Gopher site.
	Fact check false.
	Complete bullshit.
	Minnesota Post.
	What happened was quite the opposite.
	Wait a minute, stop.
	They must have just misunderstood you after they called you and asked you about this.
	And put my picture, because there's a video on YouTube of me wearing the Gopher t-shirt.
	They took a screenshot of that, put it in the article.
	Well, what did you tell them when they called?
	Well, if they had called, I could have told them something.
	But no, they decided that this was the story.
	Oh, okay.
	So they didn't call at all.
	They just did it.
	Well, so what's insulting is, A, when the network launched its service, MTV.com, excuse me, MTV.com, I registered that.
	MTV allowed me to have it.
	They didn't give a shit because they were on AOL. They had the AOL keywords.
	And that was totally my own deal.
	And it was years later that MTV.com reverted back to them.
	So that's not true.
	There was no launch of MTV.com with Gopher.
	And I don't want them getting that credit because they completely were against me doing it.
	Well, they let me do it, but they're like, who gives a shit?
	They did not care.
	The most forward-looking, cool media company in the world, in fact, was retarded that way.
	Two, I didn't wear the T-shirt when launching any service.
	I got an email from the University of Minnesota that said, you are using our software in a commercial manner.
	You need to pay us a $5,000 license.
	And I replied, dude, I'm doing this on my own.
	I don't have $5,000 for this.
	I'm just having fun with some shit I'm doing on the air.
	We went back and forth and they agreed in writing, if I would wear the Gopher t-shirt on MTV, they would waive the $5,000 fee.
	That's the story.
	Arguably much better than this piece of fluff in the Minnesota Post.
	That's a lot better story.
	It's a great story and it shows what a bunch of douchebags they are.
	Exactly.
	Exactly.
	So, that's why I do this show.
	That's a shameful...
	Well, again, like you said, this is the problem with the media.
	Yeah.
	They don't do a very good job of anything.
	Nope.
	Nothing.
	They don't care.
	You nailed it.
	Just like they don't care about what's going on with Texas energy.
	I'm just going to wager you didn't hear any reports about these $16 billion that no one can pay for here.
	Three companies are now chapter 11 and out of business.
	And the funniest one of them all is the company or a company or whoever owns the most of the windmills that froze.
	They are in serious financial trouble.
	Why?
	Not because they couldn't deliver energy.
	Because they had promised, with a futures contract, they had promised to deliver X amount of energy at X price.
	And so they wound up having to buy that energy to supply it for, instead of, you know, $25.
	Top dollar!
	$9,000!
	This is falling apart.
	That is what, by the way, if you want to trade in futures, this can happen to anybody.
	Yes.
	And so there's companies with a $1.8 billion hole.
	It's a mess.
	Now, of course, there's going to be some acquisitions.
	Nobody said anything.
	I've heard about a couple of the companies going out of business, but in kind of a passing way.
	Oh, look at these companies going out of business.
	We haven't heard any of this.
	The windmill story is dynamite.
	Yeah.
	But you have to understand that this problem did not have to happen.
	It was purely the hedging in the market.
	This is too dangerous.
	This cannot be done in this manner.
	It's the Enron system.
	only now it's been legalized and and and there's there it's like this is only about greed that's And people died because of it.
	And that's the story they don't want to tell.
	Eventually something will come out, I'm sure.
	Well, there should be some wrongful death suits.
	Oh, I'm sure there will be.
	Well, we're talking about energy.
	We mentioned earlier, Bitcoin is still around $51,000, $50,500.
	You can bet on it going up when you see $1.9 trillion being approved by the Senate, so it starts to quietly walk up, as some would say.
	And the minute the House reconciles that, then I think you'll see another increase.
	That's just...
	The Bitcoin economics of money printer go burr.
	And the BBC has been drafted to combat this scourge, this scourge known as Bitcoin.
	And they've got a traditional angle which is being played a lot these days.
	As the price of Bitcoin rises, more miners want to get in on the game.
	But when that happens, the system is designed to make the number harder to guess.
	So computing effort increases.
	Bitcoin miners are currently reckoned to be making 150 quintillion calculations a second.
	That is a billion billion.
	So if you're wondering what that sound is...
	Well, you'd need to ramp that up to more than 340 beats per second.
	And then play it every second since the universe formed 13.8 billion years ago to reach 150 quintillion.
	And that is how many calculations all those miners are doing in one second.
	Unsurprisingly, that uses a lot of electricity.
	And two-thirds of the energy used is reckoned to be created from polluting fossil fuels.
	So what does its energy consumption tell us about Bitcoin's future?
	Alex DeVries is the founder of the DigiEconomy website and has been studying the currency for the last few years.
	If Bitcoin were to be adopted as a global reserve currency, those miners will have more money than the entire US federal budget to spend on electricity.
	We'd have to double our global energy production for Bitcoin.
	A good currency should be an effective means of exchange and a stable store of value, says Kenneth Rogoff, professor of economics at Harvard University and a former chief economist at the International Monetary Fund.
	He argues Bitcoin fails on both accounts.
	Yes, one rich person sells it to another, but that's not a final use.
	And without that, it really doesn't have a long-term future.
	Since so many people are always asking me about Bitcoin, let me just give you two quick notes about this particular anti-Bitcoin statement, which is it uses too much energy.
	And there's a million different ways you can talk about what uses too much energy, etc.
	But interesting to note is that most mining is now actually being presented as very...
	environmentally friendly because they're going off grid.
	They're going to the taking containers filled with machines.
	It's all modular.
	They go to the gas drilling sites and the methane that they would otherwise burn off because it's not profitable to send that methane, which I think is really high.
	You would know better than I do, John.
	Really high quality or whatever.
	It burns like crazy.
	They would flare that off.
	And so now instead of flaring it off, they're using that to mine Bitcoin.
	And so that's changing.
	But I would like to go with this, and I think we should look at everything in our green economy.
	We should look at everything this way.
	How much electricity does it cost to do that?
	And you can shame people on that.
	And I think if you are a podcaster and you are worried about how much electricity is being wasted, you need to make shorter podcasts.
	Much, much shorter.
	All podcasts for green energy should be no longer than 15 minutes, really.
	We should have a green podcast.
	We should have a label.
	We should set up an exit strategy!
	Yeah.
	Oh, my God.
	Green podcast.
	No, no.
	We need a word.
	Green podcast.
	Seal of approval.
	Podcast.
	Green podcast certified.
	No, it has to be something better than that.
	Come on.
	It wouldn't take us more than a few minutes to dream something up that would work.
	And you being the inventor of the process and the promoter of Podcasting 2.0, you're in a perfect position to be part of this.
	Yes.
	What does LEAD stand for?
	LEAD is the certification, right?
	What?
	LEED. L-E-E-D. That's the certification for buildings.
	Leadership and Energy and Environmental Design.
	LEED. They have the certification.
	So maybe we should just make it PEED. There you go.
	No, that doesn't sound.
	PEED. That's it.
	Exactly.
	PEED. Your podcast is PEED certified.
	Nice.
	Yeah.
	We need a logo.
	It needs to look like the lead logo, or it'll just say pee.
	No, it needs to look like that little kid that's on the back of Vans that's peeing on something.
	There's your logo right there.
	We just licensed that.
	You too can have an official piss pod.
	I mean, it just keeps writing itself, John.
	Oh, yeah.
	Okay, potential exit strategy, ladies and gentlemen.
	We're doing really good this show.
	And I need one because the other day at breakfast, the keeper, my lovely wife, I haven't even started my coffee, and she says, you know, we should do some axe throwing.
	And that was a little startling to me.
	Is she good with throwing an axe?
	I don't know, but who comes up with that?
	It takes some skill to do it right.
	She wants to throw axes.
	Like, do you still love me?
	I just want to understand what's going on here.
	Throw them at each other.
	Oh, okay.
	Got that out of the way.
	Nice.
	One more.
	I do want to play these, and I'm going to mention something that you bitched about my Cuomo clips.
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	I did not intend to bitch.
	But your complaint was not unusual.
	It was the, oh, this is a distraction, is a distraction.
	This is what the right-wingers are all saying.
	Yeah, well, I'm clearly a Republican.
	Well, no, the right-wingers say it.
	The Republicans, I don't know what they say.
	But they say this, and I'm going to push back on that because the reason for doing this, for going after him on this sex thing to get him to quit, is if you don't get him out of this office, he's going to be hard to, because he's still got the controls.
	His hands are still in the controls.
	You're going to have a hard time indicting him.
	You want to knock him down out of the office and then you can go after him for murder.
	Okay, do you think that's the strategy?
	It has to be.
	So I have two more clips, a part of this.
	And this is the interview with his first accuser.
	And this is done with Nora.
	Nora does this.
	And you know, it's not that great.
	But you can see, for one thing, You do see that this woman is sincere.
	You know this is what happened.
	You know the guy's a douchebag.
	And he's just, you know, this is not, he's got to quit.
	But let's play these two clips.
	And turning now to our exclusive interview with Governor Andrew Cuomo's former assistant, Charlotte Bennett says New York's governor sexually harassed her and that he was trying to sleep with her.
	And tonight Bennett tells CBS News who she reported her claims to and what happened next.
	I was nervous.
	I was emotional.
	Days after Bennett says Governor Cuomo harassed her, she reported it to his chief of staff, saying she no longer wanted to work directly for him.
	What happened during that meeting?
	I sat down and pretty quickly Just said, I love working here.
	I love you guys.
	But the governor crossed a line with me last week and she asked me what I was referring to.
	And I said, he said he was lonely.
	He said he wanted a girlfriend.
	He asked me if I had slept with older men.
	He said he was willing to sleep with younger women.
	And at that point that was enough for her.
	And she was just like, what can we do here?
	Two days later, she says she was transferred to a new job.
	It felt to me like if I got a new job, we didn't have to investigate this.
	And I really did not want it to be investigated.
	I was terrified.
	You were happy with the deal?
	Yeah.
	But after the meeting, Bennett texted her mom saying she felt, quote, happy and relieved and sad.
	He shouldn't have robbed this experience or this path from me.
	Then on June 30th, Bennett was called into another meeting, this time with the Governor's Chief of Staff and General Counsel.
	It was a long and thorough conversation.
	What was the reaction?
	At first they apologized.
	They said it was inappropriate.
	When I asked them if they could let it go, I don't want this to be investigated, please drop this, you know, because I was scared.
	She said, you came to us before anything serious happened.
	It was just grooming.
	And it was not yet considered sexual harassment.
	So for that, we do not need to investigate.
	Deborah Katz represents Bennett in New York State's independent investigation.
	When she said, I am terrified, I don't want you to investigate, what they should have said is, we have a legal duty to investigate.
	Mmm, what a mess.
	Oh yeah, it's getting better.
	There's a third party that came out too with something, but it's a little more minor, but I think they'll find somebody else.
	The guy's a douchebag, but let's go to part two.
	Let's honor all the women who have suffered in 2019.
	The governor signed into law an amendment making it easier to prove sexual harassment.
	The law he signed himself makes clear that sexual harassment includes creating conditions that make someone feel uncomfortable because you're sexually propositioning them.
	Governor Cuomo was a champion.
	Of a law that made it easier for women to claim sexual harassment.
	That's correct.
	He also mandated employees in the state take sexual harassment training.
	On Wednesday the governor was asked if he took the training.
	The short answer is yes.
	In 2019, he did not take the sexual harassment training.
	How do you know that?
	I was there.
	I heard Stephanie say, I can't believe I'm doing this for you.
	I'm making a joke about the fact that she was completing the training for him.
	And then I heard her at the end ask him to sign the certificate.
	In a statement, Stephanie Benton, Cuomo's office director, categorically denies the exchange and says this is not true.
	What do you think should happen to Andrew Cuomo?
	I think he should start telling the truth.
	I'm really confident in this investigation, but if this investigation finds that he has conducted himself this way, which he absolutely has, because I have contemporaneous evidence, he should step down.
	Boom.
	Wow.
	So he didn't even take...
	This is, by the way...
	No, it's the same test I didn't take.
	Go ahead, say it.
	This is the same test I took.
	And I didn't.
	And you didn't.
	You were Cuomo-ing the thing.
	No, because I didn't have someone take it for me.
	I did not have someone take it for me.
	Okay, fine point.
	Point of personal privilege.
	It's a point.
	Yeah, you didn't have it.
	You're right.
	You didn't bluff your way through it with a bull crap.
	Like you did.
	I did not.
	I took it.
	You know what I did, though?
	Because I wanted to get through it real quick.
	This is just for anybody out there.
	I had a number of multiple screens open.
	Oh, right, right.
	If you have the computing power, you can do this test and get through it really quick because you have multiple screens open and you can check yourself and you can pre-take the test while taking it.
	It's just a complicated matter.
	But I did take it and I did have to...
	The stuff that's in this test is enough to make your hair stand on end.
	You can be sued.
	Well, I've seen you in many a situation where you could have been sued.
	But you could be standing outside your company.
	In California, by the way.
	This is California only.
	You could be standing outside your company.
	Outside.
	Outside the door.
	Outside the facilities.
	And a strange woman could walk by.
	And you could say, nice outfit you're wearing there.
	And your company could be sued.
	Mm-hmm.
	And there's precedent for all these crazy things.
	This test should be taken by everybody to show you how screwed up California is.
	But taking the test is not going to stop you from getting sued.
	It will stop you from doing certain things that you never got sued.
	No.
	They're just the opposite.
	I'm not a douchebag.
	You're not a douchebag.
	And you've been de-douched.
	I remember.
	But you could make a mistake.
	And I think this test is good for that.
	Oh, yeah.
	Oh, yeah.
	These days...
	Oh, he's too busy.
	Yeah.
	I remember 1996, took my company public, Nasdaq.
	And the minute we were on the board, like that week...
	There were lawyers downstairs.
	We were on the 20th floor, I think, a couple floors.
	There were lawyers downstairs, and a woman would walk out and say, Oh, do you work for Think New Ideas?
	Anyone talk to you in a degrading manner?
	And they were ready.
	And in fact, we once got a...
	Because what happens is you have insurance.
	Directors and officers insurance.
	and she got all kinds of insurances that come along with being a public company.
	And any lawsuit you get, we had shareholder lawsuits.
	I mean, it's normal business.
	It's always pretty much for the exact amount that you're insured for.
	And that's how the system works.
	It's disgusting.
	It really is.
	Oh, the whole thing's disgusting.
	It's hurt a lot of stuff, I think.
	A lot of people.
	Well, anyway, so Cuomo, he's fighting this as best he can, but when one more person comes out, Well, didn't we just get a third one today, or does this include the three?
	Yeah, the third one is wishy-washy.
	It's not a good third one.
	I have a short Cuomo clip, actually, just because I wanted to make you feel better, that you weren't alone.
	This morning, new allegations that New York Governor Andrew Cuomo's office concealed how many nursing home residents died from COVID-19.
	The New York Times and Wall Street Journal both reporting that top Cuomo aides altered the number of deaths from the virus at long-term care facilities on a state health department report in June.
	Those who died in hospitals after becoming sick in nursing homes.
	The result?
	An undercounting of nursing home resident deaths by the thousands.
	Cuomo's office and the Department of Health quickly releasing a statement overnight defending their decision not to include the hospital deaths, saying in part, the decision was made to initially release the report without the out-of-facility data and to later update the report to include the out-of-facility deaths.
	And believe fully in its conclusions that the primary driver that introduced COVID into the nursing homes was spread by its staff.
	You know what?
	Since we were talking about Fauci earlier and AIDS, that was kind of weird to hear her say this.
	This morning, new allegations that New York Governor Andrew Cuomo's office concealed how many nursing home residents died from COVID-19.
	The New York Times and Wall Street Journal both reporting that top Cuomo AIDS altered the number of deaths.
	It's weird.
	Cuomo's AIDS is after you.
	Brain does funny stuff.
	Yeah, brain does funny stuff.
	So he's in trouble.
	But it's unclear to me.
	He says he's not going to step down.
	I don't think there's anything that anyone can do at this point other than what should happen is an outrage of a lot of people whose parents or grandparents died going to the governor's mansion and calling for his head on a stick.
	Well, he's being attacked.
	Something's got to happen.
	This guy is just a big phony that needs to go.
	But I'd like to see, didn't they take the award away from the Milli Vanilli?
	Yes, they should totally take his Emmy away.
	Of course, of course.
	And I'm a little pissed because Tina was talking to one of the RFBs, the Republicans from Brooklyn.
	And I don't have a name, but they said, yeah, if Cuomo goes, his potential replacement is far worse.
	So I need to find out who that potential replacement is, because that's, it could be like a complete radical person, like an AOC type person.
	Oh, wow.
	Ooh, is that on deck?
	Have you heard anything about that?
	No, but I put it in the wind.
	Really?
	Wow.
	She'd love to be governor.
	Whenever you put something in the wind, though, you gotta be careful.
	Back up.
	I can hear her.
	She's overhead.
	Oh no!
	Oh no!
	There she is!
	I'm gonna show myself old 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.
	And we do have a few people to thank for show 1327.
	I should mention, you know that sound that bird makes, eagles and hawks do it too?
	Pterodactyl.
	That's a very funny thing.
	We have a red tail out here.
	I see quite a bit.
	We also have a golden eagle.
	There's a number of birds that fly over this area.
	And...
	Once in a while, I'll go outside and the bird will be up about, I don't know, 500 feet maybe, just standing, just standing, just sitting in one spot, you know, But the wind just perfectly still.
	Oh, yeah, just floating on air right in motionless.
	One single spot with an eyeball on something.
	Head into the wind and just a little bit of correction.
	And they make that noise over and over and over.
	And they do it, I'm pretty sure, because they have their eyes on a rodent.
	And that noise, I think the rodents hear it.
	Yeah.
	Because it's pretty high-pitched, but it's like little mice have these high-pitched voices.
	Right.
	And I think it's to scare them and get them to move.
	Yeah.
	Cuomo is the mouse, and here she comes.
	There it is.
	And your head is gone.
	Yeah.
	Let's start off with...
	Paulette Trotsky.
	Oh, the Trotskys.
	Oh, all right.
	Joliet, Illinois.
	One, two, three, four, five.
	And he got a birthday call for her husband, David.
	David Trotsky.
	Sir David, I believe.
	Sir Sanders next on the list.
	Zondam111.11.
	He says he misses Bambi.
	I don't remember Bambi.
	Yeah, Bambi was on stage.
	Oh, Bambi.
	That Bambi.
	Bambi.
	She's gone to pot.
	Good times.
	Sir Slam Bob Rolling Knight in San Jose, California, 101.

	You've got karma.
	For Buster.
	Buster.
	Come on, Buster.
	You can get through it.
	Mark Jackman in American Fork, Utah, 100.
	Birthday donation for Sunday birthday.
	He's some jobs coming.
	We give that at the end.
	Alan, 100.
	Yeah, hold on.
	Hold on.
	Hold on.
	Got to read his note.
	Got to read his note because Alan wrote us a note, handwritten, cursive, and says, Dear Podcasters, this is a very interesting opening.
	It caught my attention.
	I hope this $100 finds you well.
	Please put the money towards my mother, Doris' damehood, accounting below.
	Could you also please give her a birthday shout-out for February 27th?
	I've been unsuccessful at getting her to listen to the show, but I won't give up on her!
	Stay safe, Mr.
	Dvorak, Doris' son, Alan.
	He's a damehood for his mom.
	That's so sweet.
	Yeah.
	She doesn't even like the show.
	She doesn't even like him, probably.
	It's so sweet, though.
	Well, you know, you'd think she'd listen to him.
	He's got good advice for her.
	Yeah, obviously.
	He's a smart kid.
	He's a nice kid.
	You could tell by his writing.
	Yes, he's a very sweet kid.
	And he's probably from his paper route.
	Come on, Mom.
	Your son could grow up to be like John or I. I mean, how bad could that be?
	Yeah.
	Sitting here, we're podcasters.
	Instead of a, you know, my son is a Yale graduate, my son's a podcaster.
	Karen H. Blaine, is she on the birthday list?
	I would have hoped so.
	Yes.
	Karen H. Blaney in Aurora, Ontario, Canada.
	Oh, yeah.
	She sent me some pictures of blueberry wine, which might be interesting to get a hold of.
	8888 from her.
	Ashlyn Davis, $85.
	Timothy Lipton in Eden, Utah, $69.69.

	I thought he was in Tigard last time I looked.
	Tigard?
	Tigard.
	He gets around.
	Maybe he has that RV. Maybe he's moving around.
	Yeah.
	Alright, I want to thank all these folks for being the producers.
	We both want to thank all these folks for being the producers for show 1327.
	Yes, and thank you for supporting us in our value for value model.
	Very simple.
	If you get value from listening to the show, whatever it is, you're spending time on it.
	If it's valuable to you, make it meaningful to you with whatever you send in.
	It doesn't matter how much it is, as long as it's meaningful to you.
	Whether it's the number, or it's the amount you can afford, or even if it's douchebags, here's a buck.
	That's meaningful to you.
	We appreciate it, and if you want to learn more about it, go to...
	Thanks everybody who came in under $50, and as promised, Jobs Karma.
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs!
	Yay!
	You've got karma.
	Well, as we're into a brand new month here, we have a couple of birthdays to look at.
	You just heard Alan.
	He says happy birthday to his mom, Doris.
	She celebrated on the 27th of February.
	Good kid you got there, Doris.
	Paulette Trotsky, happy birthday to her smoking hot husband, Sir David Trotsky, celebrated yesterday.
	Mark Jackman's birthday is today, Sir Chris.
	We all know him from No Agenda Social and the meetups in that D.C. area.
	I believe 51 tomorrow.
	Robert Vogel will be 66 tomorrow.
	Heather Rodriguez says happy birthday to her blazing hot husband Tyson who will be celebrating on the 11th.
	And Justin Price getting in early.
	December 15th.
	Can never get in too early.
	Can you now?
	Happy birthday from everybody here at the best podcast in the universe.
	We got a couple of title changes you heard during the donation segments.
	Dame Amy becomes Baroness of Central Iowa Bike Trails, and Sir John of South London becomes the Baron of South London.
	And believe me, at Barony in London, that has meaning.
	And thank you both for upping the ante and supporting the No Agenda show in an additional amount of $1,000.
	And we really appreciate it.
	Before we get to our knights and dames, we have a make good.
	This is Eric Knauss, whose email we could not find on the previous show, even though he was the top donor.
	And I shall read it now.
	Gentlemen, I started listening in 2016 after I was hit in the mouth by a co-worker while we were on a project in Nome, Alaska.
	After a few episodes, I realized I was right when something just didn't make sense with the news I was hearing from the M5M. After a couple of months of listening, I started on an 11.11 subscription, and this 500 Canuckistan dollarettes brings me to knighthood, which, of course, we did on the previous show.
	Please dedouche me.
	You've been dedouched.
	Love the show, and as an offshore worker, I always appreciated John's ships at sea.
	You see?
	There you go.
	Our top donor felt slighted that you had dropped the ships at sea.
	I try to propagate the formula as much as I can, and with the help of your show notes, I can back up all these crazy ideas I have about COVID and other show topics.
	Please knight me, Sir Bird Dog of Glen Ray.
	I request Moose Burgers and Manhattans at the round table.
	Could I get a dealer's choice Sharpton, Don't Raff, Rubble Lizer, and the new Dog Karma?
	Yes, if I had that lined up, that would have been fantastic.
	So it's...
	Sharpton.
	Sorry about this.
	I should have done it.
	That's okay.
	While you're digging around about that, I was just thinking, I can't imagine anything better than a moose burger.
	Now, I have to say this.
	People should know this.
	Elk burgers are a little heavy.
	But a moose burger.
	And I think if the meat's too heavy, like an elk burger, if you mix it with some ground chicken, you'd have a dynamite product.
	Ooh.
	Yeah, I like the sound of that.
	Okay, I've got his clips.
	He wanted Sharpton, Respect.
	He wanted Don't Raff.
	He wanted a Rebelizer and an Asian Dog Karma.
	R-E-S-P-I-C-T. Don't Raff.
	Why are you laughing?
	India, Tango, Mike, stand by.
	33, 33, 33.
	Rob Eliza, out.
	You've got karma.
	And with that, we can commence with our knighting.
	We've got two on deck, so here we go.
	This is the blade for Eric.
	Before I pull this blade out, I want to tell people that I'm going to have a wine tip at the end of the show.
	I just thought about it.
	Okay, here we go.
	That's your champagne opening blade.
	I like it.
	Up on the podium, Douglas Garcia and Eric Knauss.
	Gentlemen, both of you are here because you have supported the No Agenda Show in the amount of $1,000 or more.
	That brings you up here to the round table of the knights and the names and all the accoutrements that it has.
	And I'm proud to pronounce KV as Sir Douglas of the Forest and Sir Bird Dog of Glenray for you, my friends.
	We've got hookers and blow, red boys and chardonnay.
	We got, they're heavy, but they're moose burgers and Manhattans.
	Cold brew coffee and cannabis, if you prefer.
	Cowgirls with coffin varnish, beer and blunts.
	Maybe redheads and ryes or harlots and haldo.
	Maybe bong hits and bourbon.
	Maybe ginger ale and gerbils.
	Breast milk and pablum, sparkling cider and escorts.
	I know what it is.
	It's always the mutton and mead.
	It's always the favorite.
	It's here in abundance at the table.
	And when you're done, slurping it all up, head over to NoAgendaNation.com slash rings.
	Eric DeShill will take care of you.
	Get the ring out to you, the sealing wax, and your certificate of authenticity, which rivals that of a PEED certification.
	And thank you all for supporting No Agenda Show.
	Remember us at Dvorak.org slash NA. No Agenda Meetups!
	It's like a party!
	Oh yeah!
	The party's been going just about everywhere.
	Everywhere you can think of, these No Agenda Meetups are taking place.
	They are a lot of fun, and I love it when people send in reports.
	Here's Flight 13 of the No Agendas in Los Angeles.
	Hi everybody, this is the flight 13 of the No Agenda meetups in Brewery X in Anaheim, and I'm passing the phone around for some words to say.
	In the morning, John and Adam, I just want to say, go podcasting, and John, stay safe.
	Baruch Hashem!
	It was really nice to be here with y'all.
	Crystal Dealer Matty in the morning.
	Hey guys, this is Jay Exotic from the land of Scrufflebutters.
	Just hanging out with all my erectionists.
	I mean, erections.
	Hey guys, this is Slick Rick.
	And hey, John, turn down your speaker, please.
	Hi, this is Angela in the morning.
	Rebecca Bravo here to have some fun.
	Hi, this is Angie representing La Rancho Los Amigos out of Downey.
	Karma, karma, karma.
	The juice bag.
	Okay, everybody.
	In the morning!
	Got a written report from the Big Island protest against not having fun.
	Meetup report from Sir Humperdink Superdank.
	Night of the Happy Juice.
	And he starts off by saying, which is in the morning in Hawaii, in case you were wondering.
	The inaugural Big Island Meetup definitely happened.
	I couldn't be more pleased with the results.
	Myself and my gorgeously glowing girlfriend, 3Gs, arrived at Punalu'u's Black Sand Beach with nothing but poo-poos and beverages to see who might show up.
	Right at noon, in which punctuality is very un-Hawaiian, we were joined by fellow producers Steve, Karen, and Judy.
	Once we spread out our food and got introductions out of the way, we continued to enjoy a rather windy day on the beach, having trigger-free conversation into the mid-afternoon.
	We had heard other party donation segments in the past, so we knew NA producers existed on the island.
	But with everything being two hours away here, it's always a toss-up if you can organize it in one place.
	Looking forward to our next meetup attempt.
	Any Big Island producers who are interested in hosting or joining, feel free to reach out to me to coordinate.
	Aloha and stay safe, he says.
	And we appreciate that.
	And here's what's on the calendar.
	NoagendaMeetups.com.
	You were wondering, John, why Meetups.com sucked and what happened to them while they got so bad?
	Yes, I was.
	I was wondering.
	Well, as it turns out, they were bought by WeWork in 2017.
	Must I say anything else?
	Oh, really?
	That's interesting.
	And then they sold them off.
	That's how the whole scene works.
	Yep.
	And now it sucks.
	That's why nothing...
	It's just unstable.
	Yeah.
	Unlike the No Agenda show on Gitmo Nation, we are completely stable.
	That's because we are self-contained.
	Yes, from viral insults.
	March 7th, that's today.
	Northern Arizona, that's Sedona.
	Meet up at 3.33 at the Old Sedona Bar and Grill.
	The Union Local 76 marched for the mutants in Maniak.
	Maniak, it's in Philly.
	That'll be 6 o'clock at the Union Tap House.
	On Thursday, show day, the Denver Shapeshifter meet up at 6.30 at Waters Edge Winery and Bistro.
	Friday, Tacoma, Washington won't be triggered or held to blame pub crawl.
	6 o'clock kicks off at the Odin Brewery next to the Dystopian State Brewery.
	Friday, Locale 33, Lake Oswego, Oregon, the Dullum Pub at 6 o'clock.
	And here's what's on the list for March.
	This is going to be a busy month.
	13th, Castroville, Texas, San Diego, Chicagoland, Maricopa, Arizona.
	The 14th, Durham, North Carolina, Nashville on the 17th.
	We've got Madison, Mississippi on the 19th.
	March 20th, Albuquerque, New Mexico, Ontario, Canada, and Kinney Store, Texas.
	21st, Pittsburgh, PA. 26th, Kawartha College, Cottage Country, Peterborough, Ontario, Canada.
	New ones, Melbourne, Australia on the 27th.
	Dayton, Ohio on the 27th.
	It's crazy.
	No Agenda Meetups.
	You've got to be a part of it.
	It's the NFT you don't want to miss.
	It's like a party.
	to meetups.com.
	Sometimes you want to go hang out with all the nights and days.
	You want to be where you want me.
	Triggered all hell flame.
	You want to be where everybody feels the same.
	It's like a party.
	So I can see this rail...
	There's a bunch of rail cars going by down at the bottom.
	And they're just these kind of weird looking, very shallow gondolas.
	Yeah.
	Filled with boulders.
	And it's just going along at about, I don't know, 40 miles an hour.
	And it's like, so far there's about 50 of these shallow gondolas.
	Oh, there goes the last one.
	Just filled with random boulders.
	That's what that's all about.
	Very Flintstone-esque.
	Oh, yeah.
	In fact, it looked like a Flintstone kind of thing, yeah.
	You're right.
	Let's roll out the cancel cannon for a moment.
	I'm gonna shoot you in the face with my noodle gun, you racist piece of shit.
	I got my pasta glock locked and loaded.
	This is the noodle gun.
	We already discussed David Brooks.
	Now, he had to resign from the Aspen Institute.
	Isn't that a big deal, the Aspen Institute?
	It's that thing run by that guy who wrote the Steve Jobs book, who we think is probably with white hair and seems to write a lot of big, thick books in a very short period of time.
	I think we may have discussed this kind of thing earlier in the show.
	It's a suspect.
	He was running it for a while.
	I don't even know what they're supposed to do.
	It's just some sort of a front.
	Yeah, he was one of the board members or something.
	I thought they were paying him, but he had to get special permission to even go there from the New York Times.
	And what it seems that he did while he was there, they started up another initiative where he got paid, I guess, a full-time salary.
	It'd be some muckety-muck, and the Times didn't like that.
	Neither did the Aspen Institute.
	But it was even worse.
	He had been...
	Consulting for a company, and there was a certain term, which I've now forgotten, and then he was writing New York Times articles about this particular term.
	Let me see how I find it now.
	I don't know what that was.
	And it was obvious that he was consulting for whatever this organization was and promoting it in his color.
	Weavers.
	I think it's called Weavers.
	Weavers, yes.
	Weavers.
	This concept.
	What is Weavers?
	What the hell is that?
	I don't know.
	It's some sort of a...
	I have no idea.
	I tried to find it out.
	I couldn't figure it out.
	It's financed by Facebook, though, and he wrote favorable articles about Facebook, and that's where he's going to get himself kicked out of New York Times.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	And he should.
	He should.
	Oh yeah, he should.
	He hasn't been good for years.
	And besides that, he's in the New York Times.
	The New York Times deal is you get paid good money, top of the line guild money.
	And you're locked up.
	And you're locked up for that, right?
	I think you get about $125,000 to $140,000 a year or something in that range.
	And you might get a bonus if you're a columnist.
	I'm not sure how much you can get.
	But you get a huge pension.
	That's almost the same amount for the rest of your life when you quit after like 20 or 30 years or 25 years, I think.
	And you're given the opportunity to write these books with the New York Times kind of blessing.
	So you're supposed to do books to make your extra money, not go work for some company thinking it's going to be a dot-com winner and you're going to walk away a billionaire, which is what I think was going on.
	Wow.
	Nah, he should have to resign from the Times, too, don't you think?
	I mean, if we're doing canceling, let's do it right.
	Well, with the staff that's there now, in fact, I was thinking about this, because somebody mentioned this, and I said, well, you know, maybe he's already been thinking about About getting out of the Times because of the nature of the new worker there, the new millennial, Zoomer, you know, weirdos that are running the New York Times at the lower level.
	I think he saw his days, maybe saw his days were numbered.
	Ooh.
	Ooh.
	I mean, he doesn't fit in with the culture that's there at the moment.
	Nobody does.
	No, no, no, no, not at all.
	Let's see.
	Austin City Council voted Thursday to formally apologize for the city's involvement in segregation and systemic racism.
	And they initiated a process for creating Black Embassy to assist Black-led businesses and organizations.
	Hmm.
	Here's the offense among one of many.
	1928.
	City master plan created a, quote, Negro district.
	A 1938 city seizing of...
	By the way, that was LBJ's entire plan, so you know.
	A 1938 city seizing Emancipation Park through eminent domain to build the first African-American housing project in the United States.
	Oh, God.
	And a 1959 vote for the creation of an urban renewal agency that led to mass displacement of black Austinites from their historic communities.
	All right, everybody.
	Black people, come back to Austin.
	You're safe now because we apologize.
	I got two clips.
	I'm not quite done yet.
	Oh, I thought you were done.
	I thought you were finished.
	The way you did it, you ended up with an emphatic boom.
	That to me was a cue.
	I'm sorry.
	I miscued you.
	I miscued you.
	I have the renaming of the James Webb Space Telescope.
	Yeah.
	To the Webb Hubble.
	Five guys will get that joke.
	Yeah, I gotcha.
	The successor to the Hubble Honors, a man who took part in the effort to purge LGBT people from the federal workforce.
	So, they want to take his telescope naming rights away.
	What's the name of the telescope currently?
	The James Webb Space Telescope.
	And James Webb is a notorious gay hater?
	Apparently.
	And I said it.
	According to Scientific American, in around 2015, the history of Webb's complicity with persecution came to light.
	Persecution yet?
	Ha ha ha ha!
	I guess he posted something on his blog that was wrong.
	Oh, he posted something and that's probably exactly what he did.
	I was talking to Willow, you know, because she wanted to know about the...
	I said, what the hell is going on with Dr.
	Seuss?
	She remembers Dr.
	Seuss.
	She's been in Italy for 26 years.
	And she said, look, Adam, there's two stories, and I get the one about the big industrial publisher who makes tons of millions a year, really knocked it out of the park with this removal of six titles.
	And they said, but, you know, there's, how about this, you know, the Read America Day?
	And so as we're talking about that, and then you came up with a newsletter.
	You know, Read America Day was tied into this cancel.
	Read America Day is Seuss' birthday, so let's remember that.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	But you sent out this whole list of the newsletters, in the newsletter, of all the things that March is.
	It's an incredible list.
	And lo and behold, it not only being International Women's Month, but I think tomorrow, International Nasty Woman's Day or whatever.
	If we can't have Dr.
	Seuss and Read America Day, how in the world can we have the Muppets where the only lead female role is portrayed by a pig?
	There's one other female, but you're right, she's the lead, and she's a pig.
	She's a pig!
	And by the way, there's only one female Smurf.
	What was she doing?
	I don't know what.
	Well, I don't know.
	She was real busy with the other Smurfs.
	And Big Bird is obviously a transphobic stereotype, so I think deplatforming can go on forever.
	Oh, they've got to get rid of the Muppets, you're right.
	The Miss Piggy has got to go.
	Has got to go.
	Miss Piggy is misogynist.
	The Muppets, misogynist Muppets.
	There you go.
	It's definitely on the chopping block.
	Yep.
	Not that you mention it.
	Let's get that hashtag trending, people.
	Misogynist Muppets.
	Hashtag International Women's Day.
	De-platform.
	I'm in.
	Yeah, I think we can do it.
	I think we can do it.
	Before you get your clips, what ISOs do we have?
	Because I think I had a couple.
	I got, well, you know, I really don't have anything.
	I have the, no, I got nothing.
	I'm sorry.
	That's okay.
	I tried and tried and tried, but I even went to things that were just obscure out there.
	I couldn't get anything.
	Okay, so we...
	You already showed one earlier.
	Yeah, I have one.
	That was very good.
	That was the...
	33% of people.
	We got that one.
	We have...
	That's a beauty.
	We have this one.
	We like a tidy package.
	Like a tidy package.
	We have this one.
	No one effin' cares.
	I like that one.
	That's a good one.
	We have this.
	Loins!
	Loins!
	I don't know why I like it.
	What is he even saying?
	Loins.
	It's coming from our loins.
	Loins?
	It's coming from our loins.
	People send me weird stuff.
	And the last one I have is Megyn Kelly.
	I brought facts, bitches.
	I'm bad.
	Could be okay.
	I think the...
	Obviously, this is the one we want to go with.
	No one effing cares.
	Yeah, that's the one.
	That's a good one.
	That's the winner.
	The 33 is good, too.
	Oh, actually, play the 33, then the no one effing cares and see how that works.
	Okay, we're doing a double shot.
	Let's see how this sounds.
	33% of people...
	No one effing...
	I fucked it up.
	Hold on.
	No one effin' cares.
	Nah, I just do the no one effin' cares.
	That's better.
	I thought it would be better.
	Yeah, that's okay.
	Now, let me just see what I'm leaving on the table here.
	Capital, violence, war against Americans, homegrown...
	Oh!
	Can I do two ABC promos before you do your final clips?
	Promos for what?
	Promos for ABC shows, for ABC specials.
	House ads is what they're referring to.
	House ads, yes.
	We have house ads...
	And the first one, they're both 30 seconds.
	This is what ABC is up to.
	Please, whatever we do in these very, very polarized times, I think it's important that everybody come together.
	We try to not be too polarizing, not to be too panicky.
	There's a lot of disagreement in the country.
	ABC is obviously doing their bit.
	It's happening right now across America.
	Fear, anxiety, hate.
	Attacks of brutal violence against Asian Americans rising in the shadows of a pandemic.
	What's really being done to stop it?
	Is it enough?
	It's a crisis that's been underreported until now.
	Stop the hate.
	The rise in violence against Asian Americans.
	The powerful new ABC News Live event special streaming everywhere tonight.
	Now, this is not about the racism at Yale University having quotas on too many, quote, Asian-Americans entering, or Asian-anythings.
	No, this is, they're going to pin this on QAnon, who blames Asian-Americans for COVID. That's their special.
	And here's another great ditty to look forward to.
	The reality is our country can collapse from within.
	Why?
	You see the white power movement on the march.
	You will not replace us!
	Klansmen and neo-Nazis, skinheads, it's meant to incite war.
	From the KKK to Oklahoma City to Charlottesville, the new documentary event special.
	We just need to start talking about race.
	Homegrown hate, the war among us.
	This is a real wake-up call.
	Streaming now on ABC News Live.
	These people are evil.
	They are.
	You know, as you look out the window, it's calm.
	It's a nice day out.
	It's sunny.
	These people make it sound as though there's nothing but death and destruction.
	It's bull crap.
	It's horrible.
	Just to scare old ladies.
	My mother was susceptible to this garbage.
	Aw.
	These people should be ashamed of themselves.
	Yes.
	One quickie little thing here.
	So I'm listening to that woman who followed her a little bit.
	She's on CBSN. And this is a two-second clip.
	And tell me if she's not dropping the D in what she says here.
	So Christina, President Biden.
	Yes!
	She's Biden.
	So Christina, President Biden.
	Biden.
	So Christina, President Biden.
	President Biden.
	That's cool.
	I like it.
	We can do it too.
	President Biden.
	President Biden.
	Biden.
	Just say Biden.
	She almost says a D in there, but it's kind of swallowed.
	It's beautiful.
	I'm so happy with this.
	I just found that very peculiar.
	I'm very happy with this.
	Okay, this is 17 seconds.
	And by the way, after I'm down at these two, I've got a quick Costco wine tip for everybody.
	Ooh, okay.
	What's our next one?
	Just make some stick around.
	Stick around.
	Art of the cheese.
	Yeah, you did it.
	Maybe I should do it in the next show.
	Yeah.
	Keep people coming back for the next show?
	California, no.
	California gender stereotypes proposed law.
	Listen to this one.
	State lawmakers are considering a bill that would require department stores and large retailers to have gender-neutral children's sections.
	Assemblyman Evan Lowe says that he wants to make the shopping experience more inclusive for children.
	Stores that violate the proposed legislation under specific toys and clothing that some groups claim perpetuates gender stereotypes.
	What?
	We're canceling all kinds of stuff, aren't we?
	Only in San Francisco.
	Dead raccoon.
	And here's the one under the radar.
	This is the under the radar clip.
	And this, I believe this, she's going to keep staying on this little thing and it's going to happen.
	It's going to happen sooner than later.
	This is the wealth tax, Elizabeth Warren style.
	Democrats determined to spend big to rescue the economy and address income inequality.
	Senator Elizabeth Warren wants to tax the ultra-wealthy to pay for it.
	This is a tax that hits only the top one-tenth of one percent.
	We're talking a lot about fairness in our tax system.
	Adding two cents in a wealth tax means they're still getting a great deal.
	But it's time for them to pay a fair share.
	I'm completely confident that this is a constitutionally responsible way to do it.
	Now, she's proposing an ultra-millionaire tax, a 2% annual tax on the net worth of households and trusts between $50 million and a billion dollars.
	Billionaires would face a 3% annual tax.
	Now she has to convince Washington and her own party's Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has said a wealth tax would be too, quote, messy to implement.
	Senator Warren told CNN's Matt Egan she and Yellen they'd need to talk about implementation.
	She says once a wealth tax is put in place, it would not be hard to monitor.
	Her bill calls for increasing the IRS's budget to build up the agency's audit firepower and modernize its systems.
	Yeah.
	Audit firepower.
	You know who's going to get audited once they upgrade the audit firepower?
	Yeah, everybody but the rich.
	Yeah, all the schlubs.
	Like me and you.
	Hey, audit.
	Ah, jeez.
	Alright, quick Costco tip.
	Yes, yes.
	A Costco tip, ladies and gentlemen.
	A wine tip.
	This showed up at our Costco, but Mimi said it showed up at the Port Angeles Costco like a month ago, and I find that to be a little annoying.
	And she bought some.
	But this comes out every good vintage.
	It didn't come out in 2017, probably for good reason.
	It was not a great year in Bordeaux.
	But the 2018 Bordeaux Superior that comes out at Costco, it's a Kirkland.
	It's actually made from a little chateau, which is named on the label.
	You can see it if you look carefully.
	It's a Kirkland label?
	Kirkland, but it's not a regular Kirkland wine label.
	It's the Kirkland Dark Navy Blue label.
	Almost a black label, Kirkland.
	I'm putting in the show notes.
	And the Dark Navy Blue labels that you see on Kirkland wines usually means that they put some extra effort or they found a really good wine.
	It's kind of code for people who buy Kirkland wine.
	But this particular Kirkland Boydow, I've bought it since 2015.
	And the 2015 was good.
	The 2016 was spectacular.
	They ran out of that very fast.
	The 2018 is the newest one.
	And it's...
	Maybe the best I've ever done.
	I think it's even gotten rated as a very high number.
	What does it cost?
	What's the price of this show?
	$7.98.
	Ladies and gentlemen, if you want tips, if you want to impress, this is your show.
	And aren't you glad you waited when you heard it being teased?
	It is the 2018 Bordeaux Superior, the Kirkland Dark Navy Blue Label, and it should be $7.99.
	Yeah, $0.99 is probably it.
	We're going there tomorrow.
	Well, hopefully you have it at your store.
	I mean, I don't know how many stores have it.
	I'll let you know.
	I'll let you know for sure.
	And they got lots of it.
	Cool.
	Coming up next on NoAgendaStream.com, the latest episode of Podcasting 2.0, the open source board meeting of the Podcast Index.
	End of show mixes.
	We've got a dude named James.
	We've got Fletcher and Blaney.
	Last minute submission.
	I've not listened to it, so who knows?
	And I figured we'd wrap it up with a nice little vaccine ditty, and that would be coming from Jason Lewis.
	And I'm coming to you from Austin, Texas, capital of the drone, Star State, Opportunity Zone 33, if you're looking it up on the governmental maps, FEMA region number six, and proud of it.
	In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley, where on the next show, I'll be discussing the slightly irksome letter I got from the FBI. I'm John C. Dvorak.
	With a tease like that, how can we not see on Thursday?
	Remember us at Dvorak.org slash NA. Until then, adios mofos!
	and such.
	Thank you.
	It's just, you know, super painful, but...
	Please don't take just because you care.
	Well, it's a paradoxical situation because things are getting worse right now.
	And so the next four or five months actually looks pretty grim.
	Plus, we can really double down on our behavior.
	Your smile is like the river's brain.
	Your voice is soft like summer rain.
	And I cannot meet you.
	vaccine he talks about you in his sleep there's nothing I can do to keep from crying when he calls your name vaccines my defects were not super severe I can easily understand how you could easily take my man but you don't know what he means Vaccines.
	Vaccine, vaccine, vaccine, vaccine.
	I'm making up, please don't hesitate.
	Some of these amazing vaccines.
	Vaccine, vaccine, vaccine, vaccine.
	Please don't hesitate, just because you can.
	What does Equinzu Orja mean?
	White devil.
	Well, tell them I'm not.
	I only met you.
	How do I know?
	Are you anti-racist?
	Are you transphobic?
	Are you anti-black?
	Like, give us the answers right now and quickly or you're going to get off the stage.

	Equinzu Orja.
	Rich white guys.
	Elon Musk.
	Joe Rogan.

	And then you get a whole bunch of other white guys coming in with attitude and basically taking over their act.
	Sure.
	Equinzu Orja.
	This is spicy, right?
	We'll continue.
	Right?
	And this nigga's not lazy.
	Sure.
	Equinzu Orja.
	He said, sorry white devil, but he must kill you now.
	Just imagine, you've had this place, and now there's these white guys saying it's Clubhouse, our Clubhouse, too obsessed with wokeism, whatever.
	Did you answer those questions?
	Do you support white supremacy?
	Are you anti-racist?
	And transphobia.
	Okay.
	Let me guess.
	White Devil, White Devil?
	Yes!
	You speak what you do?
	You're spicy, White.
	We continue.
	I don't understand why these people got angry.
	We've got a complete hijack of the community.
	Sure.
	Right, and this nigga's mad racist.
	And I think a learning moment is in place here.
	Sure.
	Okay.
	Listen, listen, White.
	We're in charge here, okay?
	We ask you some questions.
	You can answer them or you can go.
	All right!
	This white devil thing has gone far enough.
	Wednesday, I met a woman with COVID.
	And Wednesday, she coughs so all the time.
	So.
	And I thought that the rules were simple.
	And I thought, hell, I wore my mask.
	And even though I'm not wheezing, the doctor said that I did something wrong.
	COVID kills you.
	Yeah.
	mortality point oh oh two Friday she called to say she had corona I don't need to worry.
	Just go get tested.
	Go find a place to run in rapid test anywhere.
	I don't understand how it goes through air.
	I'm only testing negative.
	No, no, no.
	And my temperature ain't up, and my pulse oxen strong, but this woman said I had to go home.
	Results can be wrong, and you gotta stay awake.
	People are dying cause people don't obey.
	Reporters hover while we weep over others who've been dying since the day they were born well.
	This is not that the tests say I'm fine, but they don't.
	And I thought I'd live forever, but now I'm not so sure.
	They try to tell me that they're clever, but that won't let me out of here or anywhere.
	Mortality's .002.
	And you said that I was naive, and I know that I still feel strong.
	And I thought that I can leave, I can leave, oh, but now the doctor says I was wrong.
	COVID kills you.
	Yeah, at a rate of .002 You said you could have caught it, you didn't listen You wouldn't even know you'd try to quarantine and keep me home cause you're just so scared by the news.
	And you say...
	Stay You say Stay Stay at home until a vaccine.
	The best podcast in the universe.
	Adios, mofo.
