Whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop!
Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak.
It's Sunday, June 20th, 2021.
This is your award-winning Kimbo Nation Media Assassination, episode 1357.
This is No Agenda.
Deconstructing the Delta 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 they just had the annual Juneteenth shootout in Oakland.
I'm John C. Dvorak.
It's Craig Vaughn and Buzzkill.
In the morning.
Oh, man.
You know, I am really pissed off about the media.
You know, if you look at what's happening on the streets of America, so there was the Juneteenth shootout in Oakland.
Was it four people shot?
How many?
Six.
Six?
And were there casualties?
Yeah, one guy died.
One guy died.
But it's, you know, Saturday in Oakland, I mean, Juneteenth or no Juneteenth.
Right.
So we had a mass shooting in Austin.
Was it last weekend?
And so now it's 15 people, one of whom has died, and it turns out it was two teenage punks, 15 and 17 years old, who were shooting at each other.
How is this not national news?
How is this not national news?
I mean, really big news.
Because instead, I'm going to see if I have a clip of this.
I thought I had a clip.
Let me see.
Yeah.
Instead, this is the headline.
And I saw it pop up yesterday.
And it's the top.
The top on Google News.
The top on Yahoo.
The top on...
I didn't check Apple News.
But, you know, it's the number one story.
Was it intentional or an accident?
That's the question authorities in Florida are asking after a driver slams into a crowd at a pride parade, killing one person and injuring another.
WFOR TV's Bobith Yates.
The truck was also participating in the parade and had a pride flag on it.
The driver was even wearing a pride shirt.
A senior official briefed on the incident tells CBS Miami that the initial indications are that this was an accident.
The driver of the truck is telling police that his foot got stuck between the gas pedal and the brake, causing him to lose control.
But you see, this didn't matter.
The details didn't matter.
The headline was, Pickup Truck Kills One in Pride Parade.
Unclear whether accident or intentional.
These a-holes were hoping.
First of all, let's just hope.
Hope it's a white guy.
First of all, let's start with that.
Okay, it's a white guy.
Good.
And did he have a Trump sticker on his pickup truck?
Meanwhile, there's death and destruction, black-on-black crime happening all over the country.
It's Chicago again.
Two people killed in cold blood, and it's on video.
You could roll that, play that over and over again.
You like the trauma.
That just drives me apeshit.
Apparently it does.
It really does.
Well, but you know, we deconstruct media and it just has to be pointed out while it's this moment in time so you can witness it for yourself that all these other horrible events that have taken place, even things that would be within the agenda of the news media, i.e.
guns.
I mean, just give up on that.
Let's play it.
I got a couple of these are clips I've just been rolling with for a while.
I've been moving them forward.
I used them at the end of the show.
I'm going to play them now.
Oh, holy crap.
Okay.
This is the C-SPAN call-in.
This is C-SPAN, two realities call in.
Line for Republicans, this is David out of Independence, Louisiana.
Good morning.
Good morning, Mr.
John.
And I'd like to say, first off, I want to thank you personally for being so nice to me over a couple years here.
It really has helped me.
And I just was surprised to see how happy...
You were with that last guest, you know?
And it just tells me a lot about you and the show.
It's supposed to be fair and balanced.
But think if there was no Fox News.
How fair and balanced would it be?
And as far as comparing Trump to Biden, he thinks that guy's seltzer.
He thinks that Biden is in reality.
And Trump produced so much, a thousand times more than Biden will ever have a chance to.
But, Mr.
John, this goes back to something I had told you before.
There are two realities that we live in.
The average person has a reality that they're immersed in.
And then there's another one that you TV people create.
And that last guest was the best example that I could think of.
That guy is in dreamland, man.
Well, David, let's give our current guest a chance to talk about these two realities that you talk about.
Okay, well, this is something that we have identified for many, many years, and it seems that we're not alone.
No, and there's also Scott Adams' version of it.
He has the two movies playing at the same time, the two dimensions.
Let's just play the second half of this clip, and then I have to talk about something that I heard on the radio.
Well, yeah, I think you have.
I mean, you've seen it more and more in the media landscape and the public landscape.
You know, Pew Research did a poll for President Biden's 100 Days, and the audience of CNN and MSNBC is disproportionately liberal.
They are sort of I think it's 20 or 30% more liberals in their audience than conservatives.
If you go to Fox News, I think it's about 30 points more conservatives than liberals.
I think people have chosen their media outlets a favor, and I think the executives of those outlets, the hosts of those outlets, know very well what their audience is, who's in their audience, what those people want to hear.
And so, yes, O'Brien Stelter, he was just here.
We'll tell the CNN audience what's most interesting to CNN audience, which is, you know, criticizing Republicans and finding good things to say about the Biden administration.
Yeah, fair enough.
That's pretty much the way we've seen it.
Yes, and I do, and what you're complaining about early on right there was the one of the sides of the two dimensions.
Dimension B, clearly.
So I'm listening, I spend a lot of time now listening to left-wing talk radio.
Ah, this is the same thing I put myself through with watching MSNBC all day.
Pretty much.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, good on you.
This deserves danger pay.
I want everyone to listen up.
This is hard stuff to do, people.
So this guy calls in and he's obviously an agent provocateur for the Republicans.
Mm-hmm.
And he gets into a debate with this guy.
And I don't know who this guy is.
They're pretty random.
And the guy goes on and says, you have no idea how much better Joe Biden is than Trump.
Joe Biden at the G5, G7, a red, red Putin, the riot act.
He's had a backbone.
He stood up.
He says, if you listen to both press conferences from beginning to end, if you did, you'd know that Joe Biden...
You know, laid down the law, and Putin backed down.
Yeah, at the press conference.
And Joe Biden is the strongest president we've had for a long time.
And he went on and on and on.
Cool.
And I'm listening to this thing, wow, I mean...
And I could kind of understand, again, if we go back to this common theme we've had for I don't know how many years, a decade at least, of these two dimensions.
And you can see...
Whatever you want, the way they're presenting the news, because they're not giving any facts.
It is, in essence, two versions of the simulation.
Now, well, now, I do have a little aside joke here.
Joke time.
All right.
Hold on a second.
Everybody stand by.
Joke time.
Now, I guess Joe Rogan...
Made some slams against Brian Stelter.
Yes, he made some slams.
And we've always called him seltzer water.
Yes, and rightly so.
Sure.
And we always wonder whether or not anybody at Fox or some of these other networks...
Listen to our show on the sly.
You know, just like, oh, let's see what we can steal from the boys.
Yeah, I've always thought that Tucker Carlson's producers at least check in from time to time.
I think that's fair to think.
We'll play this Judge Jeanine clip.
Oh, boy.
Podcast host Joe Rogan, just enough of this far-left hypocrisy, and called out fake news CNN's Brian Seltzer this week.
Well, I've heard...
We really do the full seltzer water, so I'm not sure.
I've heard other people say seltzer.
Okay.
I've heard it before, but...
I don't understand how she says seltzer when you know it's in the prompter and it's spelled correctly.
Yeah.
Well, hey, in the morning to you, Judge Jeanine.
Good to have you on board.
Yeah, I think she's fantastic.
That is a very interesting woman.
Well, she's definitely got opinions.
The whole package is interesting.
Go down to the border, hops on a horse.
I don't know.
She's got spunk.
She definitely has spunk.
I think spunk is exactly what Judge Jeanine has.
And, John, happy Seating Person's Day!
Oh, they came up with the male version.
Well, I did at least.
Or did you come up with it?
I thought we should launch it.
Seating Person.
Yeah, happy Seating Person's Day.
Yeah, I like it.
Yeah, I mean, what's wrong with it?
I mean, it's perfectly okay according to today's vernacular.
I think we're good.
Well, Happy Father's Day, I should say that, to all the fathers out there.
Well, Happy Father's Day to you and all the fathers.
Yes, all the fathers out there.
We have quite a few, and they appreciate Father's Day a little more than they did, let's say, three years ago.
Yeah, because...
When Father's Day and Mother's Day were notoriously a joke...
Duds, duds.
...to the point on the No Agenda show where it was going to be discontinued as a promotion.
Yes, it's true.
I like how you say that, discontinued as a promotion.
We're just not going to have any of that.
Okay.
There's a couple of interesting patterns that I'm starting to recognize since we're talking about the mind control, the manipulation of the individual simulations as spun out through the television, telescreen, play-out systems.
I think that's exactly what we said.
They're trying to do something else, they, collectively, although it seems to mainly be coming from the NBC camp, and that is to get us to be afraid of the Delta variant, and it's being done in interesting ways.
But first, we need to know that this is indeed some kind of PSYOP that's taking place, so we need to identify the code.
It has taken on new urgency as a highly contagious new variant sweeps through the country.
The Delta variant has now been detected in 49 states and is responsible for 10% of new U.S. cases.
It's a bad virus.
Dr.
Paul Offit expects that percentage to climb quickly and notes that studies show the first dose of the Pfizer vaccine is only 33% effective against this variant.
Okay, so we know we've got to pay attention.
Variant bullcrap on the way.
CNBC really doing a good job pulling out all the stops from the daytime programming where they have financial news, even to the evening lineup with Shep Smith.
On CNBC. But this first report is they just throw the entire kitchen sink.
This is like this is the start.
Like we're going with this.
We're going with this Delta variant.
This is what we're going to use.
We're going to use it politically to scare people.
We're going to use it financially to promote more vaccine.
Scientists are still learning about the Delta variant, but they agree it appears more transmissible.
In a new report today, Public Health England says it's associated with a 60% increased risk of household transmission compared with the alpha strain.
Now, that's the one associated with the U.K., which itself is more contagious than older strains.
And researchers here in the U.S. are worried about this because of the precedent set with that alpha variant.
It became dominant first in the U.K. and then here in the U.S. as well.
The U.K. is now seeing an uptick in new daily COVID cases as Delta takes over.
In the U.S., prevalence of Delta is still low, but it's spreading fast, according to Weill Cornell geneticist Chris Mason.
It's highest in states like Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas and Colorado, where in Mesa County this week, public health officials issued.
Delta is spreading rapidly.
Delta is spreading rapidly.
people under age 20.
And though the strain's been associated with reports of hearing loss, stomach pains, and nausea, it isn't clear that it causes those different symptoms more than other strains Scientists suspect it could lead to more severe disease overall, but say more research is needed.
And in India, where this Delta strain has been dominant, there's been an increase in cases of what's known as black fungus.
An infection that can require surgery to remove.
Some patients have lost their eyes, and for others, it's been fatal.
It's thought that it could be arising as COVID patients' immune system.
Oh, really?
Immune systems suppressed by drugs in their treatment?
Mm-hmm.
Oh, Ivermectors targeting.
Oh!
The good news is two doses of the vaccines are effective against the strain, but vaccination rates are uneven across the U.S. from more than 50% in the Northeast to around 30% in Southern states, which experts warn makes them vulnerable.
Crikey.
Yeah, the South will rise again with the lack of vaccines.
Well, now we've got to look at the trend.
So we know it's scary.
It's really scary.
They bring in the black...
Yeah, it turns into a black mold and your eyeball falls out.
Black fungus.
Yeah, you lost your eye.
You can't hear.
She literally just said, they've lost their eyes.
What does that even mean?
That's very bad.
So now we need to really...
In America, we know how it works, you know.
We know what you need to say if you want to get the American human beings to do something.
The Delta variant first showed up in wastewater in Branson, Missouri on May 10th.
Branson is about four hours away from here.
Within a week, it was detected in the wastewater right here in Brookfield.
It's been spreading across the state ever since.
Listen to what the president of one local hospital told us.
It's coming.
You're at risk.
You're a sitting duck if you're not vaccinated.
And we want you to vaccinate because our hospitals are filling.
The University of Missouri is working with the state's health department to detect and track COVID-19 in wastewater facilities all across the state.
Not only can scientists detect COVID-19 in wastewater and by default in specific communities, but they can also identify exact variants.
Scientists studying this tell us that what the data shows them in this state right now is that not only is the Delta variant prevalent, but it is spreading incredibly fast, particularly in smaller rural communities where less people are vaccinated.
Republicans.
Right here in Lynn County, only about a third of residents are fully vaccinated.
All right, let's just take it all the way to the children.
Bring in Gottlieb.
Bring in Shep Smith.
We've got to make it clear what's happening here.
Doctor, earlier today, a former White House advisor on COVID called the Delta variant COVID on steroids.
What are your thoughts?
This variant looks to be about 60% more transmissible than B.1.1.7, which was that U.K. variant that we know is more contagious.
It's doubling about every 10 to 14 days in terms of its prevalence here in the United States.
It's about 10% of infections right now.
It will become the dominant strain in the United States.
Now, the question is, is it going to be 90% of 10,000 infections a day or 90% of 100,000 infections a day?
I think as far as the summer is concerned, we're unlikely to see a big resurgence of infection, even with this new variant.
But this is a significant risk to the fall, and the effects of it are likely to be very regional.
We're likely to see a resurgence of infection from 617, from this Delta variant, in states that have low vaccination rates versus states where the vaccination rates are above 70 to 80 percent.
They should be pretty well protected.
There's some modeling out right now that shows that if you get to about 85 percent of eligible people vaccinated, which some states will approach as they head towards the fall, that should be pretty good protection against a resurgence of infection, even with this more transmissible strain.
Let's just do it, people.
Oh, won't somebody please think of the children?
Here she is, Dr.
Wen from the CDC. She is the expert who goes on every show, and she's now on C-SPAN. There is this fallacy...
That somehow coronavirus is not a problem for children, that kids can get it, they'll be mildly symptomatic, if at all, somehow they won't pass it on even, or some people even think that kids are immune, quote, from coronavirus, and it's not a problem.
And I just wanted to address this by giving readers and your viewers a thought experiment of imagine if this disease did not affect any adults, but only afflicted children.
Because I think what's gone on is we keep saying, well, children tend to not get as severely ill as Which is a true statement.
But just because that's the case doesn't mean that we should not pay attention to coronavirus and the impact on children.
As you mentioned and cited, there are children who have died tragically from coronavirus.
They've been hospitalized.
There are also kids who are living with long-term side effects, many of which we don't even fully understand.
For example, there was just a preprint paper that came out this week from the UK, a study looking at the effect of COVID-19 on people's brains.
They looked at adult brains, not kids' brains, but they found that there is a loss of gray matter, even in people who had mild COVID-19.
Now, we don't know the significance of this.
We don't know whether this happens in children.
But all I'm saying is there are potential long-term effects in children as well that we cannot dismiss.
We cannot dismiss the impact on children, the more than 400 kids who have died from COVID-19, by the way, disproportionately affecting African-American, Latino-American children as well.
Except in Africa and South America.
It's important for us to continue to emphasize protection for children.
It's all about children, children, children, children, children.
As far as I know, very little evidence, but we really don't know because the VAERS database is, who knows?
Corrupted.
Well, it seems that there are big gaps in data.
Of course, people download the data, they analyze it, and they looked at gaps in, like, an entire series of reports were just removed, which, now, they may have been detected as completely bogative, but there should at least be some trail, like a Wikipedia, you know, you go back to a previous version and see it was there, 140,000.
Have been deleted.
And right now, we're, I think, over 5,000 official or officially approved.
Actually, if 140,000 were removed, that means the ones that are there are real.
So even if that is the exact number, a little over 5,000 people died from the vaccine, then that's really significant.
Anyway...
The real story, besides that this thing now can eat up your brain, which no one's reporting on, okay, is what's happening in China, where they have had an outbreak of this horrible Delta variant, and they have shut down the Yantian shipping port, which is big.
So you think we have supply chain problems right now?
Holy crap!
I could not find any reporting on this.
Certainly not any video or any clips.
And I found this from a news...
I don't know if they're only on YouTube, but it's a news outfit called Freight Waves Now.
It's a podcast about shipping freight.
At least if it's a podcast with an RSS feed.
One of the biggest things that I'm watching right now, of course, is what's going on in Yantian.
And I'm really surprised that it's not getting the news that it should be getting because this is a major port.
There is a COVID outbreak in that part of China where, of course, you're not getting a lot of information from the Chinese government as it relates to this outbreak.
And you've had Marsk, you've had Halfpag Lloyd, do rerouting ships.
To avoid the area, you have 41 vessels anchored right now outside of that port.
This is a major port, guys.
It's a major port for both European as well as U.S. routes.
100 routes travel to and from this port alone.
60% to 80% of exports.
Have you even heard about this happening?
That they've shut this thing up?
No, it sounds like a Chinese scam.
Yeah, of course it is.
That's what I'm saying.
To keep us from getting our services.
Yes, and I think it's a big deal.
It is a big deal.
It should be covered a little better.
We don't cover this kind of thing because we've got too many other things, like the guy trying to kill a gay man in a gay parade.
Woo!
I have a second part to this report.
It's 50 seconds.
Yes, please.
Yeah, she goes in a little more detail.
This, by the way, is a reporter, I think, from CNBC. This is her side gig.
From the information that we've garnered, it looks like it's the Indian variant that we have unfortunately seen sweeping through Asia.
And what they're doing is you have 30% of the eastern portion of the terminal for Yintian open.
And that's according to MARSC. The western portion of that terminal is closed.
When you're looking at the vessels that are out there, 44 cargo vessels are anchored at the port, 7 of those are empty.
22 are partially full, 11 are fully full.
And when you're looking at that flow of trade, what's comprised of I can tell you about the short supply of empty containers.
The problem is that they ship out a lot of goods and services to the United States and they get 20% of the containers back with our exports.
We don't deadhead a bunch of empty containers and send them back.
No, we're no fools.
Well, we turn them into housing.
Ha ha ha!
Yes.
Remember back in the day I was considering that and you could get a ship.
I still think you should have done it.
You would have been in the property.
You would have been.
Well, you're good and bad side analysis.
You would have been earlier into the properties scam.
Oh, yeah.
I would have been a multimillionaire and I would not be doing this podcast with you.
Or you would have been stuck with a white elephant that you could never get off to ever sell ever.
You'd still be living there, in other words.
With a container on it.
A white elephant with a shipping container.
I remember they were about five grand.
I wonder what they go for now.
I don't know.
That's a good question.
It could have been discussed, and you'd think it would have been discussed.
Yes, they're short containers.
In the early days, I used to work as an inspector on a container line.
Of course.
In the early days, I had no idea.
Was it like on the docks, like in The Wire, Season 2?
No, it was at Trailmobile in Fremont.
Oh.
Yeah.
It's very different.
Trailmobile.
Okay.
Trailmobile made a lot of the containers.
They made the ones for Mattson and PFEL and somebody else.
That's all they did was make these things.
I was an inspector.
Hmm.
I have stories to tell.
I know.
That's why I won't interrupt.
But not now.
Okay.
A couple more COVID things.
Oh, yes.
I should mention, regarding the children, the CDC, as you know, they were going to do an emergency meeting.
Because of all these kids who have myocarditis, amongst other heart issues.
And on Friday, breaking news, breaking news.
CDC delays meeting on kids' COVID vaccine heart risk.
New federal Juneteenth holiday prompts rescheduling.
Oh, there's an interesting coincidence.
Can you believe that?
So first of all, Friday was June 18th.
But okay, I guess because it's June 19th, the first official time in history that it isn't officially...
Yeah, it's an excuse.
Yes.
That's a good one.
I mean, I was calling up the different services to cancel because we're almost ready to move.
And I called up Austin Utilities.
The office is closed due to the holiday.
On the 18th?
Yes.
Yes.
These guys, did Biden just sign the bill?
Yeah, they got it in under the wire.
He just signed the bill the other day.
They're all closing down immediately?
Yes.
Oh, there's story after story about how government agencies were scrambling to handle the extra day off on Friday.
So it wasn't just June 19th, Juneteenth.
That's fine.
We have all kinds of holidays.
That's great.
That's good.
I'm cool.
I mean...
I think you could have done differently.
The way you think the government should be doing it is that this would be the year where we sign it into law.
Luckily, it's on a Saturday.
Don't worry about it.
Next year, we'll take the extra day off or whatever it is, maybe midweek.
Who knows?
Yeah.
Instead of this, what you're describing...
But this kind of tells me also that the Biden administration is jumping around.
Stuff is going on and they're doing things to try and almost like a just-in-time manipulation.
You know, we saw it with the mask coming off immediately.
Then we have the Wuhan lab being walked back.
But not everyone's prepared.
You know, the mask mandate was done.
Everyone's complaining, well, you didn't prepare us for that.
And it's true.
Most governments do that.
They have weeks of pre-massaging.
Everybody knows what's coming.
And these guys just...
They just do whatever.
Anyway.
So there's that.
There's the...
Oh, this was a good one.
I like the little sound you made.
Whatever it was.
Story over the weekend about four British Airways pilots who died all after being vaccinated.
And this was tamped down very quickly by British Airways and by Reuters, who came out with a very full fact check.
So at least one of those pilots, I believe, was long-term, actually sick in Houston, had been here for some record number of days, 250 days.
They shuttled him back, comatose, and he unfortunately died when he got to the U.K., The other two, or possibly three, I don't know.
It's not unthinkable that of the 8,000 pilots that you're going to have a couple problems after the vaccination, just based on the numbers I'm seeing, whether it's specific to altitude and thrombosis and blood clots or not, because a lot of people were following that.
Then we have an easy one that we could have seen.
If you have something that works, but you've discredited it, and you still want to make money off of it, I don't know, maybe this is ivermectin, maybe it's hydroxychloroquine.
Who knows what it is, but this is the big money.
With COVID likely to remain a threat for years to come, the White House and NIH say they will spend $3.2 billion to develop new antiviral over-the-counter pills to treat COVID and future viruses at home, keeping people out of ERs.
So now we're going to get a pill, a treatment.
Yeah, so do you mean like the $2 little pill?
Not a pill, but a whole bunch of pills they sell in India and Goa, you know, the ivermectin plus a zinc pill plus something else?
Yeah, you would think.
And I think this contract is going to Merck, from what I can understand, $3.2 billion.
Instead of being $2, by the way, it would be $20 or $200, $200.
And Merck needed something.
They were pissed.
You know, it's like, hey, Pfizer got something.
Yeah, Johnson& Johnson got something.
I mean, just because, you know, we do pills.
Don't be a douche, Joe.
Okay.
What do you need?
Five billion.
I'll give you two.
Let's make it to three.
3.2.
Okay, you got a deal.
Make a press release.
So we're supposed to hit some goals as Americans.
We're not doing very well.
We are underperforming.
It's not who we are for our July 4th goals.
With his July 4th goal slipping away, President Biden touted a different milestone today.
300 million shots in arms in his first 150 days.
If you haven't gotten vaccinated yet, get vaccinated now.
Now!
Don't put it on.
Now!
The president had hoped to get 70%.
His marketing style is still, it's free.
Come on.
This always works with Americans.
It's free.
Now, don't put it off.
It's free.
The president had hoped to get 70% of U.S. adults at least partially vaccinated by Independence Day.
But the country is sitting at 65%, with just 16 days to go.
In Georgia, where the rate is even lower, the vice president framed the choice to get the shot in biblical terms today.
It's also about love thy neighbor.
Oh, yes.
And that is what the vaccine is about, too.
Yes, love thy neighbor.
That's what the vaccine is about, too.
Wow, these people are really struggling.
Do you think that they're going to make it up and pretend as if they got to?
I don't know who's really checking this.
Do you think that they'll just claim victory?
Wow, that's a good idea.
I never thought of that, but that makes sense.
That's what you do.
Just like a couple days before July 4th, they can make a big announcement, Biden comes out.
By the way, this is one thing we haven't talked about.
Biden's gait.
Yes, his forward-leaning gait.
Explain gait, because that's something most people...
G-A-I-T. The term refers to...
Horses are notorious for having a gait.
It's the way they jog.
A gait is the way you walk.
Do you look like you're balanced or unbalanced?
Do you look like an old person?
Do you look like an alky?
Now, the gait, I'm always...
I live...
There's a town, you know, in the Berkeley area, there's a lot of bars, and San Francisco's got more bars per capita.
But in some little towns, they have these bars, and at night, if you're driving around, you see people leave the bars, and they have a...
Kind of a...
I would call it a professional drunk's gait.
It's not like they're staggering all over the place like an amateur would do.
Because they've been, you know...
They're pros.
They're pro-drinkers.
These old-timers, and they have a specific gait.
And it's like a...
it's like you will it there used to be a comedian foster brooks who played a drunk and and he was on all these old road shows if anyone watches the old time tv they'll see some of these old things and foster brooks he developed an ability to copy the gate of a of a professional alcoholic and now there was someone who drinks all the time they're basically a brain shot and their system doesn't work right and so they walk funny and it's kind of like i i like a little hesitant said it's just not right
and biden has got the drunken gate and you people say well he's an old man i don't That's not an old man's gait.
Guys, you see these old men, they're steady.
Biden's not steady.
He's got a gait of a drunk.
Wow, putting it out there.
Just my observations.
I guess there's a reason why we don't hear that discussed.
I don't think you can get that in many other places other than on the free and open podcast ecosystem.
When you see him walking, pay more attention to it because I'm always like, oh man, is he going to fall?
He's like, he just walks funny.
But it's the gate of a drunk.
It's the gate of a real alcoholic, the type of people that just frequent bars and they've gotten just the right part of their brain eaten away just enough so they can't really, they're not steady.
Okay, so this proves one thing.
The whole adrenochrome thing is bullcrap.
Give this guy some extra, you know?
Come on.
Isn't that the whole point?
Is that you can be as spry as Nancy Pelosi and some of the other 80-year-olds in Congress?
You just have to have the right juice.
Yeah.
Pelosi's got a lot more going on than Biden does.
Yeah.
I mean, either they're not giving him the right stuff or it's not true.
It doesn't work.
It's not working on him.
And I want a refund.
But he's just something to see.
And it drives me nuts to see.
They don't show him walking on much of the mainstream media.
They do on C-SPAN and some of the other Fox.
They'll show him walking around.
But the mainstream media just cuts all that out.
And they really do a good job of covering his ass.
Oh, no kidding.
I mean, just hear the analysis of the G7. Oh man, even...
I've got to start clipping this show.
Pivot with Kara Schwisher and Professor Scott Galloway.
Yeah.
It's my hate listen.
Watch a hate listen and clip listen.
Yeah, I should.
And these are very intelligent people.
Hate clip.
Hate clip them!
Talking like, well, Biden really did a great job at the G7. Just the right balance.
Like, holy crap!
There's a lot of that.
It's what I'm hearing on these left-wing talk shows.
Okay.
It's like they just think he's the greatest thing ever.
I think we have to do some hate clipping.
You're right.
It's time.
Hate clip of the day.
Oh, we need a new jingle.
Okay.
Now, Australia for a moment.
It's not easy for us to imagine what's going on now with our brothers and sisters who are related to the Church of England.
We can only surmise what it's been like in Canada.
It's the closest to us, so we get the most kind of overflow of news.
Very, very, very horrible situation, how they're locked up like dogs.
And then in Australia, another country that I feel is very close to us in many ways, Some good, some not so good.
They've really had to be incredibly obedient for the good part of a year, a full year, even though they didn't have a horrible situation.
The actual people who got really sick and died is very small.
But the obedience and the beatdown that they've received there is crazy.
And then in that context, when Trump said Operation Warp Speed, the military is going to deliver it, that's kind of Will Smith, like, independence day, wow, here we come, we're going to come and save everybody.
But when you get this announcement in Australia with this whole obedience lockdown context, I find it creepy.
The PM has asked me to come and take direct control of the rollout and all of the resources and assets involved in the rollout.
This, of course, is building on the fabulous work that has already been done by many, including Brendan Murphy, Paul Kelly, Carolyn Edwards, many colleagues at the Department of Health and the whole vaccine taskforce.
But this is a new phase now.
The Minister's mentioned this new phase will be known as Operation COVID Shield.
And I am given the aim of ensuring as many Australians as possible get vaccinated as quickly as possible within the available resources, and that's what I intend to do.
I am presently conducting a comprehensive review of the program to date, and I will be looking for any opportunity to optimise the current plans to accelerate the rollout where we can as additional supplies come online.
We will, of course, be encouraging all Australians to get vaccinated as quickly as possible.
I don't know.
This seems a little more creepy.
We're calling in the military now.
They're taking it over now.
And we've got to get as many people vaccinated as possible.
I'm sure it'll all be, you know, volunteer.
But do you think the military will be coming through the street knocking just to check?
I don't know.
That doesn't sound good, but you need some boots on the ground reports.
We do need some boots on the ground reports.
I'm surprised they didn't try doing that here, or at least in California.
Have the California National Guard out.
You know, the real problem that they have with stuff like that in the United States, which is a real problem for the left, is that the states don't all act alike.
And you have a state like South Dakota where they never even did a shutdown.
I mean, even in Florida they had a little bit of a shutdown for a while.
They opened up really quick.
But in South Dakota they never did.
And Florida, for all practical purposes, never did.
And Texas is kind of half on the half and half.
And California was heavy into lockdowns and shutdowns.
In fact, it started in San Francisco when London Brief shut down San Francisco just before anybody did anything.
Right.
Just panicked and shut down San Francisco.
You're number one.
Foam finger.
You were number one.
And then when you see the numbers at the end of the day, and I use that term in this regard...
After all was said and done, another little phrase.
When you look at it after a year and a half and you compare numbers, deaths and cases and everything from state to state to state, South Dakota came out pretty much at the top of the list as did well.
And the harsh-ass states, especially New York and California, came out at the bottom.
More deaths, more problems, more this, more that.
More money.
And so you can't, you know, it's hard to ignore this.
I mean, you can't ignore it by being a left-wing talk show host.
It's being completely ignored.
Of course it's being ignored.
Yeah, people do ignore it.
But it's hard for any reasonable person who actually looks at the data to ignore what the facts are.
But this is also a unique...
Okay, so two things.
One, states' rights...
People who understand this are not surprised.
It's like, okay, that's why Texas now, as of September 1, you can carry a gun on your head if you want.
Yes, you can on your head.
Yeah, on your head.
You can have it concealed.
With no training.
By the way, have you noticed?
Oh, I have, because I'm listening to left-wing talk.
That's what they say, no training.
That's the talking point.
They make a big stink.
They don't make a big stink about everyone carrying firearms.
It's without training.
They make a big stink about the no training.
Hey, wait a minute, you are the same people.
You know training people that took gun training out of high schools.
It used to be a common thing.
Gun safety was like a thing you would learn in high school, but oh god no, can't do that.
And now you have Texas and there's no training and they make a big fuss.
Well, we train our own here just fine in Texas.
Yeah, by shooting at stray cats.
Sure.
And your point is...
Yeah, and swine.
It's the wild pigs.
That's the ones we got to get.
Yeah, but those are good eating.
But, you know, the way I think it works is let's make a lot of noise.
Let's make bills.
Let's do proposals.
Let's call everybody racist.
And then the immediate reaction is supposed to actually outrage the progressives, liberals in Texas so that you can kind of move the needle a couple of years down the road.
For example, we passed a heartbeat law, which I think is not okay, which means you cannot have an abortion once a baby's heart is detected, which – and that can be at six weeks.
I mean, I personally, I don't like any of it, but I have to say that if you're going to do any law, make it at least the first trimester, which is traditionally when you can even start to see something.
And I think it's meant just to outrage, and I think it'll get changed down the line.
It's kind of how the needle moves back and forth, and it's all just political.
Everything is political.
These a-holes, all of them, ugh, ugh.
So here's the passport shit.
Of course, Canada.
Hello.
It's the first Saturday since California fully reopened and crowds are filling the streets.
And California.
73% of adults in the state are at least partially vaccinated.
And there's a new digital system to show they got their dose.
No paper card needed.
It makes it more convenient to go places that, you know, require it.
Nationally, 65% of adults are at least partially vaccinated, but 30 states lag behind, with Mississippi, Louisiana, Wyoming, and Alabama at the bottom.
In three of those states, new COVID cases are increasing.
Dr.
Suzanne Judd is with the University of Alabama at Birmingham.
The concern if states don't catch up is that they could be facing another COVID outbreak in the fall.
How big of a risk does this Delta variant pose?
It's a big risk in people that are unvaccinated.
It spreads more rapidly than the traditional coronavirus variants that we've seen in the past.
Canada will keep its borders closed to American travelers for another month.
In Florida, cruises will soon resume after a federal judge ruled to lift the CDC's no-sale order.
So, you know, it's like all this random implementation of stuff.
By the way, what is there to stop me from just getting a screenshot from my buddy and just using their QR code on my phone?
Is this not a very simple to hack system?
I would think so.
It has to be simple to hack because it started off with, you know, just this little printed card you could pick up online because it was available.
I think the first time I saw it was on the Wyoming Health Department website.
Somebody pointed out on No Agenda Social.
And you could download copies of it there because that's what the doctors were using.
They would go to that same site and they'd download the image and then they'd print it out on their local printer and sign off on it and give it a piece of paper to the person.
uh These are the cards that are being given out to some of the meetups.
In New York, they have the Excelsior system.
Have you ever looked up the definition of Excelsior?
It literally means above.
It means above?
Yes.
So if you are Excelsior, you are above the rest of the plebs.
The plebs?
Who do not have the royal Excelsior.
Yes, Excelsior.
I think it's pronounced plebs, but it could be wrong.
I like saying plebs.
And Alex, one of our producers there, has all the documentation and provided a boots-on-the-ground report at a concert.
Attended by our producer.
Just got through security at a concert in New Yorkistan.
They claimed you had to have a clear test on you within 48 hours or a vaccine passport to enter.
Said you needed a mask to wear a mask when walking around.
Concert was sold at 30%.
Not a soul has a mask, nor has any one person asked for our test or vaccine.
I think this is all just legal jargon to save their asses, and none of these states can actually enforce these rules.
So this is New York, where they didn't even ask for proof.
So they just screwed the pooch on this.
We're going to have to wait until the next pandemic for the true mark of the beast.
And you're right, they'll probably go for the chip Now that we've figured it all out, now that we can eat...
Well, I've always believed this is something of a dry run for something.
Yeah.
Because it's got too many elements of the dry run.
I mean, it's got like the phony baloney...
First of all, it was accomplished a couple of things.
It did accomplish a couple of things.
It got rid of Trump.
They wanted to do that.
And they did.
And I don't think if it wasn't for the pandemic that...
Because the pandemic led to the absentee ballots and the vote innings.
Oh, yeah.
It was just terrific.
It was a fantastic ploy.
But it also got to test the systems.
And I think a lot of them worked to their benefit.
I think the systems kind of worked.
And in terms of getting the public all jacked up.
And yeah, but it's not perfect.
And there's a lot of mistakes.
This will be one of those when they do the post-mortem on this.
All right, everybody.
Before we do this next run, before we go live...
It's going to take a long time.
It's going to take at least a year or two to get it all.
Oh, maybe even more.
A lot went wrong with this one.
Yeah, maybe.
Now, this is just a couple more things about segregation, not just by vaccinated, unvaccinated, but Scandinavians.
Our brothers and sisters up north still locked down like dogs, can't get out for another month at least.
The border will be closed.
When they come to New Yorkistan, they will not be allowed to see Bruce Springsteen on Broadway.
Due to the fact they had the AstraZeneca vaccination, and that is just not approved here.
We do not want that in our states.
Where'd you get this idea?
Oh, it's all over the place, from the Guardian.
Oh, these Pfizer guys have gone too far.
This is one of the problems in the postmortem.
This is great.
They're going to determine that Pfizer had a little too much influence on everything because they were greedy.
Yes.
And they're going to be cut out of the deal on the next one.
The boss has laid down strict rules for attendees of Springsteen on Broadway, which reopens on June 26th at the St.
James Theatre.
For admission, ticket holders must be able to prove they have received one of the three COVID vaccinations with emergency use authorization from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the two-dose Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna vaccines, or the single shot, one and done!
Johnson& Johnson.
This means that those who have had doses of AstraZeneca Oxford jab, which is not approved for use in the U.S., but is popular.
It's popular in Canada, the U.K., and other countries.
The kids are loving it!
Like it's a rock star!
It's so popular.
They will not be allowed in for what the show's producers are billing as, quote, an intimate night with Bruce, his guitar, a piano, and his penis.
Jeez.
And his stories.
Understandably, the news was not well received in Canada.
I mean, come on!
You're right.
They went overboard on this one.
Yeah, they went overboard.
So is Broadway, well, they just...
Broadway, brought to you by Pfizer.
We care.
Might as well go that way.
Okay, a couple more things here.
So we have the treatments.
Oh yes, a couple of incentives.
We love the incentives.
Yeah, the incentives thing.
I mean, here in California, I don't have clips.
Here in California, Newsom gives a stupid press conference.
I had a picture of him in the last, not the last newsletter, but the one before.
And he gives a press conference at Disneyland, and he's got a bunch of Disney characters surrounding him.
And then he does a kind of a...
A lottery ball pick.
You know, he spins a thing, and he picks a bunch of numbers, and he's the people who get a million dollars.
I think there's five of them.
It's unbelievable.
In the Netherlands, every year, there is something called, there's an event called the Hollandse Nieuwe, the Nieuwe Harding.
And this is, I think it must go back hundreds of years.
This is when the fishermen bring in the first herring from the North Sea, the first catch of the season, because they're big enough, but they're just so fat.
I mean, I have become to love herring, of course, growing up in Holland.
Do you like the pickle or do you like the greasy?
Well, no, I like the pickled, so they've cooked it by pickling it, and they cut it open, take everything off, and they put in onions, a little bit of pickle, and then you hold it upside down.
You kind of swath it through the onions, through the chopped onions, and you hold it by the tail, and you suck the whole fish right off into your mouth.
God, that sounded horrible.
But I'm saying it because it's a big deal.
It's a big deal around the world for the Dutch...
And of course, you always drink a glass of Geneva with it, the Dutch chilled gin.
And it's so big that when I was in New York, the Dutch embassy would send a car for me back when I was super famous and mattered.
They'd send a car, you know, come on over because we're going to do our Hollandse Nieuwe, the new herring event, and it's a picture thing.
And it's a huge promotion for Holland.
But now this is, of course, being abused and these a-holes are jumping on the train, the fish industry, and they're offering the fresh, new herring to everyone who gets a COVID vaccination.
That's like, ugh.
It's a lot of things to be kind of disgusted by.
This I love, though.
You know, a tender one out from the...
This was an odd one for you.
Well, I wanted to talk about the herring.
There's a tender that went out for a government tender, so a request for proposal from the Westminster Council for London, a tender for temporary structures to put dead bodies in all over the 32 boroughs in London.
And I'm looking at the webpage here.
I mean, it really is a proper tender.
And it says here, the authority seeks to procure a framework agreement for temporary body storage in the event of an excess death situation for the 32 London boroughs and the City of London led by the Westminster City Council.
The framework agreement will appoint a single provider and will be good for a period of four years.
So, you know, that's kind of like your FEMA camp story.
But this is, hey, we want to make sure we have storage for dead people.
And maybe it goes along with this...
What are they expecting?
They don't have the dead people now.
They didn't get the dead people during the COVID thing.
They didn't have the dead people last year that much that they needed the storage.
But what are they...
What's going on?
I don't know.
Build back better.
I don't know.
Build back better.
That's what they should put on the side of each one.
Build back better body bags.
That's what we need.
The five B's.
Now, this is a story that I picked up off of...
You know, this is one of those, hey, I'm in the car, I'm going to tell you my life story.
We love these videos.
This is where the truth comes out.
This is, as she states herself, an HR executive for the oil and gas industry.
And she shares something very disturbing with us.
At least she found it disturbing.
She said it's going on in the industry.
And I am confident that amongst our many producers in Gitmo Nation, we have people who are in the HR industry, in the gas and oil fields, and maybe they can confirm or corroborate this story.
To this day, I am running a global gas and oil recruitment firm.
And the reason that this is important is because of what I am seeing as an executive in this industry happening right now as a result of the COVID vaccines.
And it's something called succession planning.
Basically what it is.
Is companies need to plan for what's going to happen as their staff move on.
Rather, they move up the line, they retire.
And succession planning is something that I help companies with professionally if I offer them recruitment services.
So they'll come to me and say, hey, we're going to need 100 guys to, you know, staff this rig, so on and so forth.
And so we'll provide them that service.
Well, what's really interesting, what's happening right now, and it's actually mortifying, not just interesting, executives are having their HR staff and their managers, superintendents, foremen, go through and look at the staff that have received the vaccines, and they're planning to have to replace them all within the next three years.
It's got some of these guys literally in tears as they're going through the company and literally checking off all of these individuals that have taken the vaccine knowing that most likely in the next three years they're going to have to plan to replace that person.
And this is a really big thing in the industry that I'm in and a lot of talk going on around this at the moment because these massive companies, massive gas and oil companies are looking to have to replace thousands of personnel And they're pretty petrified as for what's going to happen to their staff, but also their businesses, because they project that they're going to lose, you know, roughly half of their personnel.
There you go.
Sounds out there.
Sounds out there, but, you know.
Oh, that's totally out there, but it's great.
It's what we do, baby.
We have no idea if this is even remotely true.
Wait until we start hate clipping.
When the hate clips come, that'll do it.
I have a letter from one of our producers, Anonymous.
Oh, good.
Anonymous Tom.
I basically had to get my jab by mandate from my job.
Regardless, I had the Moderna.
My first one was okay, no major symptoms.
However, the second one laid me out.
I had the worst headache I've ever had.
A lymph node in my collarbone swelled up to the size of a large marble and is painful to the touch.
Additionally, I felt like I was on mushrooms but without all the fun trippy part.
The worst part, though, was the rolling fever I had for two days and the insane and terrifying nightmares.
Damn.
I never wanted this damn thing, but I need a paycheck more.
Honestly, I would have rather have had COVID than this bullshit.
Damn.
Anonymous.
Damn.
Another letter from a happy customer.
Yeah.
I'm sure he didn't report it to VAERS. That's totally reportable.
You can't have a marble sticking out of your collarbone.
I don't think so either.
Let's just step back from that, just in some overall context of horror movies.
If someone gets a vaccination and this marble pops up in your collarbone, you're like, you're getting out the zombie knife.
Yeah.
What the hell?
I'm glad I have that, by the way.
You have a zombie knife?
Yeah, don't you remember I got the zombie knife?
The big green?
Oh yeah, I remember.
We ordered it on the show.
It was a big deal at the time, yeah.
Well, I wanted to get it before they were outlawed because the UK was outlawing them.
They were outlawing scissors.
They were outlawing everything.
They still do.
Sharp sticks.
Let's see.
Anything else that we have here?
Yeah, this story about the so-called Chinese defector that keeps popping up.
Oh, yeah.
You know, it's funny I don't have any clips on that.
It's the Chinese defector.
There really aren't any clips to be had other than people just talking about it.
You're too busy following the truck guy who hit the gay guy.
Yes!
I think the truck guy also was a gay guy, FYI. No, he was, and he was probably an old gay guy.
Yeah, yeah.
Red State is the one that's following the story.
But, you know, Red State sources confirm that the defector is in fact Dong.
That could be an onion line right there from Babylon Bee.
The defector's name is Dong.
He was in charge of counterintelligence efforts in China and that he flew to the United States mid-February...
Allegedly to visit his daughter at a university in California.
When Dong landed in California, he contacted DIA officials and told them about his plans to defect and the information he brought with him.
Dong then hid in plain sight for about two weeks before disappearing into DIA custody.
Like, I need to know a little more about that.
Well, the way this story is portrayed is as if this guy has the goods on the FBI and the CIA, and the DIA had to ferret him off because they were killing him.
Well, you want to hear the list of the stuff he apparently has?
Yes, I read this article too.
Please read.
Early pathogenic studies of the virus we now know as SARS-CoV-2, models of predicted COVID-19 spread and damage to the U.S. and the world, financial records detailing which exact organizations and governments funded
the research on SARS-CoV-2 and other biological warfare research, names of U.S. citizens who provide intel to China, names of Chinese spies working in the U.S. or attending U.S. universities, financial records showing U.S. businessmen and public officials who've received financial records showing U.S. businessmen and public officials who've received money from the Chinese government,
Details of meetings U.S. government officials had, perhaps unwittingly, with Chinese spies and members of Russia's SVR, Special Victims Resuscitation.
How the Chinese government gained access to a CIA communications system leading to the death of dozens of Chinese people who were working with the CIA. Well, that last one...
That last one, we know that a lot of people were killed in China because they gained access.
Yeah, dozens.
So...
Because the Chinese have a...
There's a mole in the CIA. But here's the interesting connection.
Dong has also provided the Defense Intelligence Agency with copies of the contents of the hard drive on Hunter Biden's laptop, showing the information the Chinese government has about Hunter's pornography problem.
So, is this the same guy, then, who brought us the previous Hunter's Greatest Hits?
I don't think so.
Was it him all along?
I mean, that's kind of weird.
It's possible.
No, but the Chinese had nothing to do with it.
It showed up at a repair shop.
Yeah.
That little aspect of this story is what makes me skeptical that the whole thing is a hoax.
Yeah.
There is no guy.
There's no defector.
But if there was a guy and he had this kind of intel...
He has it on a thumb drive, supposedly.
It's on the blockchain.
The blockchain.
Then that could explain this about-flank, about-face on masks, on getting Bill Gates out of the way.
It could also explain the shutdown of the Chinese port.
Thank you for bringing that up again.
I cannot stress.
We should consider what comes from that damn port, if not 80% of all our stuff, that we should be hamstering right now, hoarding.
Oh, good boy.
Wow.
Now you're thinking like Horowitz.
Now you're thinking like Horowitz.
It's like, what stock should I buy?
Well, Horowitz, the reason I like working with him is that he does, if you're in that business for such a long time, everything you think about, it's all connected.
And so you can say, well, then you can buy this stock to take care of that situation.
And it's always something like, ah!
Yeah, it's obvious once you point it out, but unless you point it out, it just doesn't come to mind.
And that may be what you just did, which is point out the obvious that maybe there's a few things we should think.
Maybe you should get some toilet paper again.
I mean...
There may be some things out there that come from China that we need to hoard for a while until this gets straightened out.
So how do we figure out what it is?
I don't know.
I have no idea.
Very helpful.
Those Ace PCs might be a good idea.
I'm sorry, Ace?
Those cheap little $150 computers that are just dynamite.
I think toilet paper is a better bet than that, most likely.
I think most toilet paper is made here.
I don't know how much imported toilet paper we really use.
I just still get such a kick out of the fact that your mom said that the Chinese were stealing the toilet paper and then, you know, decades later that shit came true.
Yes, that's my mother.
The story really goes like this.
She'd call and say, you've got to go buy some toilet paper.
I said, why?
She says, because the Chinese are buying it.
I said, what are you talking about?
So she'd go to one of the local stores and if she saw a bunch of Chinese buying toilet paper, she assumed they knew something.
And so she'd buy a bunch of toilet paper.
I love that.
And tell the family.
I wish I could have met her.
That would have been good.
Now, we both got the same clip.
Of course, it's a story local to me, but I don't even know which version you have.
It doesn't matter.
I have the Houston version.
Yeah, so before we get to that, let's just play a couple of infrastructure, cyber pandemic, great reset type of stuff.
So we can keep our finger on the pulse of how we need to wreck the economy.
If we need to just create the illusion with ransomware and six-week cycle cyber pandemics, we can do that.
Let's bring in Will Hurd.
Will Hurd was the cool Silicon Valley guy who was – was he a senator?
I think it was a senator, wasn't it?
And he resigned.
He resigned his post.
I think he wanted to get back into being a venture capitalist or something.
But he still comes out and talks about stuff he says he knows stuff about.
And I found this interesting.
We're talking about infrastructure.
One thing that is part of infrastructure is our digital infrastructure.
And that is crumbling.
We're seeing that from the attacks in Florida on our water supply.
We've seen it on our energy supply.
And we're not even talking about what happens when the Chinese get to quantum supremacy and their ability to read all of our information and the impact that's going to have.
These are some of the conversations we should be having to make sure that this country has the infrastructure, digital and physical, to get things done.
Alright, stop.
I need a t-shirt that just says quantum supremacist.
That's what I want.
I need a quantum supremacist.
Quantum supremacist?
Yes, quantum supremacist.
A quantum percent with an arrow.
Yes, right.
With an arrow.
Quantum supremacist.
What the hell?
And how about, I love the mix of the metaphors from Mr.
Will Hurd.
Our cybersecurity infrastructure is crumbling.
Now, that's the actual infrastructure.
That's the highway, the freeway John keeps bitching about.
The cyber infrastructure doesn't crumble.
Since you mentioned Will Hurd, and you said he might have been a...
No, he was never a senator.
I have him here.
Yes, he was.
He was a congressman.
Oh, congressman.
He was a spook, though.
He was a congressman in Texas for, looks like...
Four years.
Three or four terms.
Yeah.
He's CIA clandestine officer.
Yeah, but this guy, he's the one that keeps saying, you know, when I was in clandestine services in Afghanistan with the CIA, to which every spook I know goes, that guy is a pencil pusher bullshit.
Yeah, it sounds like it to me too.
Yeah.
Because I've never seen this moniker, clandestine officer.
CIA guys, the old school ones, the good ones, the Catholics in action, they don't do that.
No!
They will never put that on their business card, clandestine officer.
That means you are like...
It means he might as well just put douchebag.
It's a douchebag.
Yes.
But he's still on the payroll.
Wait, wait, hold on a second.
Let me read this.
This is an intelligence career.
Now listen to this.
You talk about what your theory is, pencil pusher?
Yeah.
Now listen to this.
Heard worked for the Central Intelligence Agency for nine years, which is, okay, 2000-2009, stationed primarily in Washington, D.C. Ooh, clandestine.
Covert action.
He did get one tour of duty as an operations officer.
He was literally on a tour.
Pencil pusher in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India.
By the way, he looks Pakistani.
He speaks Urdu, which would make sense.
The national language and...
I don't know his...
Lingua Franca of Pakistan, where he worked undercover, he says.
Oh, in Pakistan.
One of the roles of the CIA was bringing members of Congress, which is what makes Hurd want to pursue politics.
Which is briefing members of Congress.
I'm sorry.
He returned to Texas after his CIA service and worked as a partner with the Crumpton Group, a strategic advisory firm, and as a senior advisor with Fusion X, a cybersecurity...
So he doesn't know anything about tech.
Well, hold on.
So what is he talking about quantum?
He doesn't know what a...
The guy's full of shit, this guy.
I'm reading from the Wikipedia.
In quantum computing, quantum supremacy...
Is the goal of demonstrating that a programmable quantum device can solve a problem that no classical computer can solve in any feasible amount of time.
Wait a minute.
Haven't the Google guys claimed this at least three times?
The Google guys claim they have done this at least once.
IBM claims it too, don't?
Doesn't IBM claim some kind of quantum?
No, IBM, I don't believe they've claimed it.
Then I'm claiming quantum...
Bull crap.
There's no...
No.
None of these guys can do this.
This is nonsense.
The No Agenda show claims quantum supremacy.
Okay.
Done.
I'm in.
We claim quantum supremacy.
That's a show title.
Quantum supremacy.
We are quantum supremists.
And we're in charge.
It's not white supremacy.
It's quantum supremacy.
So as an aside, I've always believed that this whole quantum thing just doesn't work.
And they can't get it to work, and they wish they could, but it's an interesting theory.
Well, how can that be?
Because the quantum financial system has already been implemented.
XRP is going to become the stable coin of the United States government, and it's even off-world on satellites.
Yeah.
So, I beg to laugh.
And we have quantum trolls.
I like that.
That's a good one.
So, the quantum thing was really popular to discuss in probably the last decade or so.
And when John Markov was the science writer for the New York Times and the computer guy, he was the top guy before he retired, he covered it.
He covered all the quantum guys, knows all the players.
And I call him up one day and I said, what is it?
You know, it was over one particular announcement that I read from one of these companies that is quantum computing.
It just read funny to me.
It read like some sort of a practical joke or a script for an April Fool's gag.
And he says, you know, all the work that he put into it all those years, he says he still can't, he still doesn't quite buy it.
This is bullcrap.
This thing is nonsense.
Yeah.
Well, I like that.
I mean, that's why I say he's kind of a Silicon Valley guy.
You just throw out some shit like that.
When China achieves quantum buzz phrases.
I know the type of guy who does this.
They don't know what they're talking about.
Randy Comazar.
Well, Comazar's been in the business long enough he should know what he's talking about.
No, I've heard him do stuff like that.
Well, a lot of these...
I just love...
It's a great line to just throw out at a cocktail party.
Well, you know, when China reaches quantum supremacy...
When China achieves quantum supremacy, it'll all be over.
We'll all be dead by then.
I mean, let's just get real people.
Finger snaps.
That's Will Hurd's life.
He's got a great life, that guy.
Yeah, I guess so.
Professional stooge.
So I have two more cyber-y kind of, and these are real issues, real problems.
They just get highlighted.
And of course, when it happens to an airline, it's always a problem.
This was from earlier in the week.
Fox 4 in Dallas with a second day of computer issues for Dallas-based Southwest Airlines.
Monday, a glitch stranded at airport terminals around the country.
The company's third-party weather data provider prompted the airline to ground its jets for several hours before some flights resumed.
Microservices!
I don't think that's a valid excuse.
There's no reason that, unless there's some insurance thing that I'm unaware of, but, you know, weather data is one of the number one things provided in the aviation industry.
All of these pilots have their own, you know, personal digital flight bag on their iPad or whatever they're toting around.
I think you glossed over what it is.
It has to do with, it's obviously a microservices.
Mm-hmm.
That they're subscribed to.
And by some...
It has to do either with insurance or some policy or something or other.
There's...
This is typical of any company that depends on microservices to this sort of extreme.
It goes down, you're screwed.
No, I don't think it has.
No, they can't just let some pilots go off and we're using their own, holding their iPhone and going, okay, we can make a left here.
John, hold on a second.
I'm not going to be just going to let the guy do that.
That was like a level of quantum supremacy I've not witnessed yet.
The guy's holding an iPhone and says, okay, hang a left.
No, okay.
All right, fine.
I'm just calling bullcrap on that being the reason.
Something else was going on, and that's just acceptable to the stupid sheep.
Okay, well, it's a possibility.
I'm not saying it's not.
It's like, oh, well, exactly what you said.
Well, we can't have the guy do it on his iPhone.
Okay, hang it left.
All right, we accept the others.
That's exactly what, yes.
All right.
There'll be a bean counter somewhere saying we can't do that.
Shut it down.
It's probably like, we can't afford it right now.
Shut it down.
Tell them whether.
Okay.
But in Australia there was something big that happened.
Australia's central bank and postal service and several commercial lenders were left grappling with internet outages on Thursday.
The disruption impacted customer accounts and financial transactions, although some services were restored later in the day.
Virgin Australia was also hit but said the situation has now been resolved.
The country's number two airline said it used Akamai, a third-party system for IT network authentication.
Representatives for Akamai did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Websites in Australia, including those belonging to the Central Bank, the Commonwealth Bank of Australia and others, had also started to come back online late afternoon.
The Reserve Bank of Australia cancelled an operation to buy government bonds because of the technical difficulties.
Websites of American Airlines, Southwest Airlines, United Airlines and Delta also experienced disruptions on Thursday So instead of just saying Akamai fucked up, which is really what the story is, Akamai had a problem and all these websites were connected to it.
But I do like this.
I like hearing these weaknesses in the system.
This is what you want.
This is where you want the ransomware to take place at Cloudflare, Akamai, Fastly, Microservices.
This is why you need some redundancy.
There's no redundancy in the system.
There's too much reliance on single point of failures.
If the one microservice that weather report doesn't have a backup that they can switch to, it's dumb.
Yeah.
And everything runs just in time.
This is what we're noticing.
This is the biggest problem we're having.
This all started with HP. I blame them.
Wait, who was the original just in time?
There's a different term for it.
HP. HP pretty much perfected it.
There's some training that a lot of people said, I've had my star 957s or something.
What is that called?
I forgot.
Six Sigma or some bullshit.
Yes, exactly.
The Six Sigma Phi thing.
Yes, that's it.
Yeah, that thing's dead.
So was it Dell or Toyota?
Dell, Toyota, HP? Well, the Six Sigma, I think, was promoted mostly by Jack Welch, wasn't it?
Right, right, right, right.
Six Sigma.
Yeah, Jack Welch.
That's it.
So Six Sigma always sounds like some kind of, you know, like, I don't know, like Keanu Reeves is in the club or something.
It sounds...
Yeah, it's got the...
Six Sigma reporting.
It's very spooky.
But the just-in-time stuff, you know, we...
And that's what I think we're seeing with government, certainly with the Biden administration.
They're doing everything just-in-time.
I think you might be right about that.
It's like, shit, what do we do?
Boom, boom, boom.
Let's do this.
Just-in-time.
Just-in-time.
Now, this is my last clip.
We should take a break, unless you've got something else.
What?
Nothing.
I'm just saying, what more doom and destruction can we discuss?
Well, China, because we learned, and I think it was not intended to be that way from President Biden.
He said, hey, the...
The B3W, our Build Back Better World project, is basically the 38 countries of the EOCE. I thought he had 72 countries on his list for this.
Did he say 72?
I don't remember, but it was a big number, and it was all about Belt and Road, which I think is what you're going to discuss.
Yeah.
Well, let me just replay that one clip that we had of him on the previous show.
Because, you know, nowhere is it mentioned in any of the documentation.
There's a lot of Build Back Better World on the White House website.
But nowhere does it say, you know, this is in particular against China, you know.
Screw the China man.
None of that talk anywhere.
But he says it here.
We also made a momentous commitment at the G7 to help meet more than $40 trillion need that exists for infrastructure in the developing world.
I put forward an idea that was called, we named the Build Back Better World Partnership, which is, we're calling it the B3W. The point is that what's happening is that China has its Belt and Road Initiative, and we think that there's a much more equitable way to provide for the needs of countries around the world.
And so it's a values-driven, high-standard, transparent financing mechanism we're going to provide.
Wow!
Wow!
I hadn't even heard this!
That's almost like quantum supremacy.
It's a high-value financing mechanism?
Hold on.
Countries around the world.
And so it's a values-driven, high-standard, transparent financing mechanism we're going to provide.
It's a values-driven...
What's the second part?
It's a values-driven, high-standard, transparent...
High-standard, transparent...
Financing mechanism.
Financing mechanism.
Uh-huh.
So what we're saying...
Values-driven, high-standard, financial...
I think it means, unlike China, if you decide not to pay us back, Africa...
We're going to come in with our military and F you up.
That's our high standard, and it's a finance mechanism.
And so it is going against the Chinese, the Belt and Road.
And so what maybe even started with President Trump is being carried forward by the American elites now, whoever is controlling Joe, And they're keeping the pressure on China.
And this is not just the United States.
It may, in fact, be some kind of cabal that is making the moves.
Now, this is a report from TFI Global News, which, I don't know, could be Taiwan news for all I know.
It's really one of the few current reports I could find on the strife between Australia, Scott Morrison in particular, and China.
We've all talked about how Australia has given China a bloody nose in the trade war which the paper dragon waged against the down-under country.
The Aussies have quite literally been landing solid kicks on the CCP's posteriors, and Xi Jinping is not liking this a tad bit.
What's worse, Chinese cities are going dark, Chinese factories are being forced to shut down, and ration electricity not to mention, and China's steel industry is being pushed to the brink of collapse.
All because Xi Jinping's eager war against Australia has gone awfully wrong for the paper dragon.
After having taught China a lesson, Australia has emerged as a formidable power not just in the Indo-Pacific, but across the world.
Australia is today recognized as a country which has successfully taken on an extremely belligerent China and taught it a lesson which shall never be forgotten.
Fully aware of its renewed stature in the Free World Order, Australia is now beginning to assume the leadership role in the democratic fight against China.
What do you think?
That's an interesting theory.
I mean, I'm just picking up this one report, but we know that they said, hey, screw that, your Belt and Road stuff.
We know Italy is now rejecting, I think, some of Chinese deals they have, the 5G implementation, the Huawei, that's off the table.
So maybe this is a big push, and I wonder, I mean, are they weak at all?
You know, what tools do they have to fight back?
Besides monetary, I guess they could devalue their currency again.
Well, and of course the ports, the ports in the southeast, close that off, sorry.
Rona.
They're at the point where they want to cut off, cut us off.
By the way, one of those boxcar trains, not boxcar, but container trains went by and it didn't have the full complement.
Did it have empty containers going back to China?
No, no, I'm talking about the one coming from China.
Oh, was it full?
Lots of stuff, or...
It didn't know.
It was short.
It looked like it was 75% of a normal train.
There you go.
This is the problem.
It's already starting.
Yeah, I think it has because the train normally consists of about 140 cars.
It has two engines in the front, two in the middle, and then another engine or two in the back.
And this one had...
Two in the front, none in the middle.
It was shorter.
The whole train was less than 100 cars.
And then two or three engines in the back.
So I would say go short Amazon because they're going to have no supply.
You can't recommend anything.
I have no idea what I'm talking about.
I have no idea what I'm talking about.
But I do question a money manager who makes the decisions that Andrew Horowitz makes.
Yeah, okay.
Now, what is...
You keep bringing this up, and that keeps making me wonder, what are the plays, stock market plays?
But there's got to be something, because if China's just going to say, we're going to shut the port down, even for 10 days, we know what happened to the whole world after that one ship was stuck in the Suez Canal for a week.
Yeah.
I mean, everything went crazy.
In fact, that ship is still, I guess, under embargo.
Well, let's just face it.
It just shuts down.
It shuts us down.
There's going to be a lack of stuff.
Well, actually, I guess it'll be good for kind of the big box stores because people will rush out.
They'll jack up the prices.
A little bit of that going on.
This won't even be...
I really worry about this.
I know so many truck drivers that I've met throughout the years through No Agenda, part of Gitmo Nation.
It's one thing if they don't drive.
If they've got nothing to drive, it ends real quick.
I mean, you're just days away from a problem, certainly in a place like Texas, like Austin, Texas.
The people here, if there's no HEB, Whole Foods, and what's the CM, the Central Market, people would lose their crap.
They don't know what to do.
Well, I mean, isn't most food, there's not that much food that's imported from China except in Chinese stores.
No, you know, there's a lot of food that comes from China.
I mean, apple juice, some apple juice comes from China, a lot of apple juice.
Well, a lot of Walmart stuff comes from China.
Walmart's all China.
Yeah.
Okay, so you can't say not a lot of food comes from, well, meat products.
Okay.
But, you know, at a certain point, Americans eat processed chemicals in a box.
Mac and cheese, that's it.
Man, if we had gone long mac and cheese and we started joking about this stuff, we would be very wealthy by now.
But no, once again, we screwed up.
Anyway, with that...
We didn't screw it up.
We looked at it with common sense and said, no, people aren't that stupid.
No.
With that, I'd like to thank you for your courage to say in the morning to you, the man who put the C's in mac and cheese, ladies and gentlemen, Mr.
John C. Dvorak!
Well, in the morning to you, Mr.
Adam Curry.
Also, in the morning, all ships of sea, boots on the ground, feet in the air, subs in the water, and all the dames and knights out there.
In the morning to our trolls in the troll room.
I'd like to do a little count.
If you could, please put your hands up.
We got trolls.
We're going to curl count.
Here we go.
Let's see what we got.
We have 1,909 trolls with us today, John.
That's pretty good on the Sunday, I believe.
No, it's short.
We're running 21, 2200.
Well, it's June 19th holiday weekend, so you've got to take that into account.
It's Father's Day.
And it's Father's Day.
I hadn't even thought about that.
Maybe people were with their father.
Possibly.
I have a registered domain name, trollroom.io.
I figured that would be smart.
Although, you know, just if you want to join the troll room, because people are always asking, well, where's the troll room?
Yeah, that's what they'd be asking.
Yeah, where's the Troll Room?
And it's at trollroom.io and that'll take you right to the Troll Room along with the No Agenda stream and you can listen along to the live shows, many of them, 24-7 that stream goes.
It's a whole beautiful system where the latest episodes around Gitmo Nation are implanted into the stream and And you can hang out there and talk about what you're hearing or just anything in general.
Troll and troll as much as you can.
That's noagendastream.com or trollroom.io.
And please follow either John or I or both of us for double your pleasure at noagendasocial.com.
Sorry.
Can I interrupt you?
You know, I never got the spreadsheet today.
Oh, I got it.
I got a copy.
Send it to me.
Oh, okay.
Well, that's odd.
Here we go.
It came late?
I just did a search for Eric and it's not here.
Oh, yeah.
I do know that it came very late, like 35, 40 minutes late.
Well, there's a lot of notes that he had to deal with.
Yes, I believe this to be true.
Okay, it's forwarded to you.
And I will get back to my little spiel telling people how they can follow both of us at NoAgendaSocial.com.
I'm at Adam at NoAgendaSocial.com.
He is at John C. Devorak at NoAgendaSocial.com.
It works across the Fediverse.
So whatever server that you may be on, you already know and enjoy the benefits of a non-AlgaWise network that is federated across many servers all around the globe.
And there's many places you can sign up and just follow us and eventually everything will flow over into your timeline as well.
And then thanking the artists for episode 1,356 that we did on Thursday.
The title of that was Chest Feeding.
Man, we are really all over our new speak recently these days.
We've got a seating person, chest feeding.
We're really, we're very woke here.
Now, this piece of art, which was created by Corrector Record, hands down one of the most beautiful pieces ever.
Just perfect.
It was like a comic was created custom for us.
It was the Build Back Better World Amusement Park.
The sign in front of the amusement park.
And it even said, join us for a violent summer.
It was a beautiful piece.
It was so perfect.
Really, really perfect.
So I haven't got your email yet.
Maybe something's wrong with your email because my email has gone on.
I just got some other emails from somebody else, but why don't you send me a copy to my Google email?
Okay.
Hold on a second.
Maybe a lot of people had trouble with your email, I think?
No.
The one guy who had trouble with my email was sending it to I-O-H-N at Dvorak.org.
Okay.
I'm just laughing at how you say it.
No.
Can you tell me your Google or do I have to go figure it out somewhere else?
Well, I can't tell you.
Then I'm going to get inundated.
Okay, let me go look at your Google then.
Hold on a second.
I can get it.
No, I don't have it from your Google.
Geez, I have to actually go to my Gmail.
I send all the clips from my Google email.
To my Gmail, which I have only for clips.
So now I have to go into that.
I always send a...
I guess you don't even get an error message.
Because I always send a CC to your regular email address.
Yes, and that always bounces.
Always.
Okay.
Yes, of course, because it has more than 10 kilobytes of attachments.
I've got to say that within three guesses, I probably could have figured out your Google email address.
Okay, right.
Well, have we done enough there?
It's on its way to you.
So, back to the artwork.
Did you send another copy to you?
Yes, yes.
This is irksome that the regular box has not showed up.
This is the problem with the internet.
It stinks.
No.
No, that's not the problem.
The problem is that you just claim to have the best email system in the universe, and sometimes you've got to question it.
Should I question myself?
Should I question the Googles?
Where is it going wrong?
I don't know.
But for sure, if you want to have the email of the future, you need John C. Dvorak's one and only Squirrel Band!
Hit it, ladies.
Microservices is your problem, my friend.
you Yeah, I'm sure it is.
Did you get it?
Because now I want to talk about the artwork.
You still don't have it?
Keep talking.
Okay.
Well, discussing the artwork is not as fun without you.
Oh, okay, good.
All right, you have...
Whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop!
What?
Damn it.
Just hang in there.
We'll do it live!
Come on!
Yeah.
So there was...
Yes.
So the basketball, yeah, I got it fixed.
So the basketball game, ah, this is a funny, I don't know, it's not worth the show, and it's not worth telling you because you don't like basketball.
I love basketball.
What are you talking about?
So I'm watching the championship game, you know, the finals for this one playoff.
I know, of course.
You think I wasn't watching?
Yes.
So every time Giannis gets up to do a, the big guy from Milwaukee gets up to do a free throw, the audience starts counting him down because you only have 10 seconds to shoot it.
Right.
That's by the rules of the game.
You can't sit there hemming and hawing and taking forever to shoot the fucking ball for a free throw.
Wait, this is the 10 foot tall Yugoslavian guy?
Yeah.
See, I know what I'm talking about.
So the audience starts going one, two, and they counted almost every time he's up there throwing free throws, they're counting to 13 and 14.
So it's a clear violation that should be called every single time and they don't do it.
Why not?
You tell me.
You know what that guy's using?
White privilege.
He's a big black guy.
Oh.
I guess he's not from Yugoslavia then.
No, no, you're thinking of the other guy.
And he was from Croatia.
I think the other guy's from Croatia you're thinking of.
Yeah, Croatia, yes.
But that's nuts.
So he gets to do that?
But does he get to second dribble too?
What the hell?
Boy, they're all double-dribbling.
The whole game is full of that.
But anyway, let's...
That game sounds rigged.
It is rigged.
It's a game.
Alright, let's talk about the artwork that did not make it on the show, but we always love to discuss because our artists do good work.
Well, first of all, let me say that I saw the piece that we chose, and I paid very little attention to anything else.
I thought this piece was so good and so well done that there's nothing that could even hold a candle to it.
For example, Darren O'Neill must have seen it because he normally pumps in about six or seven pieces, and I don't believe he did one.
Well, what this was is, I think on the previous show, you mentioned how Darren just craps all this art out.
And this was...
You said craps.
This was a self-portrait of Darren crapping out art.
And apparently some turds...
Oh, that's what that was.
Yes, he's pooping art onto the floor.
He's getting to...
You know what?
I don't want to insult him.
But he's turning into comic strip blogger.
Whoa, man.
He's just doing art as messages to us.
Yeah.
Well...
I mean, isn't that...
Part of the point?
I mean, you just want to keep impressing us for, you know, whenever we have a gig for you.
He did some pieces for today's show.
So he's in the mix.
He's backed off from crapping art.
So then there was also Kenny Benn, who did Camel of Down, which was the Air Force Two, with its wing breaking off with a fiery downward trajectory, which was pretty easy for us to say, no, I don't think that's a good idea to post that publicly.
No, we're not doing that.
And then Comicstrip Blogger put in the AI-generated vice president, which, I don't know, she looks like a sex doll, which is kind of weird.
Birthing person.
That was Comicstrip Blogger, too.
Yeah, you're right.
You're right.
And the birthing person one, which was designed as a tattoo, that's tattoo art, I thought was competitive.
The reason why we didn't use birthing person art or as title is because the joke was fun, you know, during Mother's Day.
That's when everyone had this birthing person thing.
That's why we have the seating person today.
The chest feeding.
No.
Today we have seating people.
Oh, today, yeah.
I'm talking about the title of the show.
Oh, yeah.
No, no.
We know what the title is.
We said we had...
I think that was kind of it.
Yeah, it wasn't a lot to pick from.
Yeah.
But...
Regardless, you can see all of these.
You probably saw some of them flashing by.

Now, I want to mention something.
Mm-hmm.
And I don't like doing this.
I've done it a couple times.
It usually doesn't work out, but I'm going to mention it this time.
You have to say something to the artist.
Are they getting a scolding?
The one?
No.
I'm going to just point something out.
Somebody didn't get the joke.
Um...
I got the joke, I think you, unless you were thinking something differently, but in the current art that's coming in for this show, the quantum supremacist cartoon or drawing by Nick the Rat has the arrow pointing in the wrong direction.
Wrong direction, yes.
Now, I don't know how Nick didn't get that joke.
Right.
But he didn't.
I know!
It's such an easy one.
That tells you a lot about Nick the Rat, doesn't it?
Yeah, Nick the Rat's a clean-cut guy.
Yes.
Because your reference was a slight...
It was lewd.
Thank you.
To be honest about it.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I appreciate the compliments.
Yes.
Thank you very much, Corrected Record.
And thanks to all the artists.
We love to review the work.
We love to give you our honest opinion.
And we really enjoy it.
It's like we're done with the show, but we're not done with the show because then we get to choose art and we get to talk about it and look at all this.
It's almost like you're done with the...
You've played the Super Bowl and then someone hands you a nice, cool bottle of beer.
It's like...
A rolling rock.
And you just guzzle that shit down.
That's just like the art.
It's a good cool-down activity.
Why don't you give a gratuitous plug to Rolling Rock?
It's a Pennsylvania beer, I believe.
You should have all these good beers in Texas.
I like Rolling Rock.
It's got 33 as their magic number.
That's their code.
Okay, well here we go with the thanks to the...
You had some other thing you usually had.
I usually say, no agenda art generator was what I usually say.
No agenda art generator.
You can add artwork and of course if you know any of these fine folks, reach out to them on noagendasocial.com.
They love hearing from you.
And the show's over.
Okay, good.
It ended waiting for your email to work.
That's when the show ended.
What?
I never heard of such a thing.
Sir Macinato de La Paz in New Brownsfeld, Texas.
The place that used to make these great barbecues.
$1973.33.
Wow!
Damn!
Sir Macinato de La Paz.
1973 was the year I met my wife and friend, Elizabeth.
She is known at the roundtable as Dame Sparkler.
Yes, of course we know Dame Sparkler.
Yeah, we know her.
Yes.
Yeah, Sparkler.
The producer credit is to her.
I switcheroo right off the bat.
Ah, switcheroo.
Okay, we got it.
We got it.
Excellent.
Dame Sparkler.
This makes her a double dame, but no title change at this time.
We will be at the roundtable, however, and would like to try some fresh Adrenochrome.
I don't know if the batch is any good.
We got the same dealer as Biden.
Yeah, you'd be staggering around.
It's not good.
And he wants to jingle Bugatti Bugatti?
What?
I have no idea what that is.
We have no Bugatti Bugatti.
Oh, maybe it's...
No, no, no, no, no.
I know what that is.
Yeah, took me a second.
Oh, boogity boogity.
Boogity boogity.
I'll do the long version for him.
Bugatti.
You've got karma.
From now on ever, that should be known as the Bugatti Bugatti.
Yeah.
It reminds me of a note I received of somebody, I think might be in the, we might read this note if it's in here, I'm not sure.
That was great.
But the guy says, it took me forever to figure out why do people want the ring with ceiling wax?
Who waxes their ceilings?
That's great!
Oh, I love it.
I love it.
Thank you very much, Sir Macanado de La Paz and Dame Sparkler.
And very nice.
73, it was a good year.
And we very much appreciate that.
Tremendous support.
Yeah.
I didn't even have to wait until the show in 1973.
No.
Sir...
Sir Carey is the Baron of...
Tricary is the Baron of Greater Boston in Dracut.
I think it's pronounced Dracut.
135791.
Almost a show.
They will give him his show.
Both these guys get show club.
Yeah, okay.
ITM gents requesting a heaping helping of karma, though I'll forego jingles to give back some time to the show.
Thank you.
Thank you.
With this donation, I'll have achieved the rank of eye count according to the, according to be sent, oh, the counting to be sent by my, oh, I'm sorry, I can't read.
Sir Carey's Baron of Greater Boston.
He's not on the upgrade list.
Are you sure?
You want to put him on there?
Um, I thought he was on, let me double check.
Um, let me just see.
Upgrades, titles, you're right.
And he becomes Viscount?
Viscount!
Okay.
Viscount.
All right.
Excellent.
Anonymous.
Yeah, I'll do this one.
I would prefer to stay mostly anonymous and just referred to by my moniker, Sir Gadgeteer.
To the esteemed gentle folk, Mr.
Curry and Mr.
Dvorak, this is a quick note to go with a donation of 1357.33.
I just sent your way via PayPal.
I have been a douchebag for many years.
As my wife, henceforth to be referred to as Pegatha, is fond of reminding me whenever we're in the car listening to the two of you.
If you would be ever so kind as to de-douche me, I would greatly appreciate it.
You've been de-douched.
Well, that makes sense.
You know, if you've never donated, been listening for a long time, then thank you.
You've definitely brought the arrears up to date.
At the same time, please send some medical karma to our mothers who are both advanced in years and wisdom.
Both have chronic health issues, live some distance from us, necessitating frequent road trips to connect with and assist them.
Sadly, both of our fathers have passed away many years ago, but we do remember them always.
Please knight me, Sir Gadgeteer of the Woods of Hazel.
No jingles, no karma.
While I am fond of echoing a wise man who once said, I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member, I am happy to make an exception in this case.
My choices for the roundtable would be Saurian Brandy and Jelly Babies.
What's Saurian Brandy?
Are you familiar with this product?
Saurian?
No.
You'll find the appropriate replicator patterns in the public domain.
Okay, I'm glad the staff is on that.
On the subject of fathers, I am a dude named Ben who would have been named Benjamin, but my parental grandfather objected.
He said that sounded too Jewish.
At the same time, my maternal grandfather was fond of claiming a bit of Jewish heritage on his side of the family.
Ah, family, the gift that keeps on giving.
Father's Day is a melancholy day for myself since I have never reproduced.
Not for lack of trying, mind you.
Please take the following statement with all the love and appreciation with which it is intended.
May you never ever find the successful exit strategy.
The amygdalas of Gadgeteer and Pegatha need you both.
And here's some big health karma for the mothers.
You've got karma.
Onward with David French in Pittsburgh.
These guys are all being the club.
Yes.
This is a big club today.
Huge club.
David French, 1357 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
You know, it's an obvious numerology, a numerological wonder, 1357.
I mean, you see the sequence.
People love that.
They're drawn to it.
Yes.
John and Adam.
Happy Father's Day.
A long time douchebag.
I'd like to correct that by joining this show club.
And...
Instaniting myself.
Love and lit.
David.
He needs a de-douche.
I think he needs a de-douche.
You've been de-douched.
I'll get this one.
Michael Van Slagenhorst.
In...
Coal Dale, Alberta.
Yeah, coal.
Well, they have a shale up there so they must have coal.
$1,000.
Jeez.
We got a lot of good donors today.
Yes.
First, could Adam say my...
This is the interesting note.
Ready?
Yes.
First, could Adam say my name properly?
I can't speak Dutch and can't properly say my own name.
Wow.
Okay, let's do this.
So now, how did you pronounce it?
He wants to know.
He's going to pronounce it correctly from now on, thanks to you.
Well, it's going to take a little bit because there is a pronunciation effort that goes into this name that we need to use you as a student.
So, this name is Michael van Slichtenhorst.
Slichtenhorst.
Close.
It's don't saliva at the sl, only on the ge.
So it's Slichtenhorst.
Slichtenhorst.
Very good.
Now, put it all together.
Slichtenhorst.
Slichtenhorst.
It's like some kind of horse.
Well done.
Now he knows.
Yes.
He continues his note.
My donation is $1,000 Canadian, so it was less than this, but it came out as $1,000 on this list.
I have been listening on and off for many years, but not, but the pandemic.
I found myself looking forward to each episode during the pandemic.
You have kept my wife and I sane this past while.
Thank you, and happy Father's Day.
Happy Father's Day to you.
Thank you, Meneer van Slichtenhorst.
Lily Noon in Seattle.
We can't find a note from her.
I'll look one up while you read the next note.
She came in with $500.
In Seattle, yes.
Anonymous interpreter with 382.20.
Interesting number.
Let's see what's going on in this message.
After the Biden-Putin meeting, there has been an increase in coronavirus-related panic in Russian news and social media.
Ah, this is our Russian producer.
They report cases are starting to spike, so new restrictions and new rules are hastily put in place.
This is interesting.
Because, of course, you will not hear this anywhere.
Several regions at this point, it's 7 out of 85, declared they will require vaccinations for at least 60% of all people working in the service industry, education centers, and for government employees.
Moscow hospitals and justices of peace courts will not serve people who are not vaccinated, with the exception of cancer patients and those with blood disorders.
This is said to be temporary, but no end date is given.
Restaurants are opening no COVID zones within access by QR codes with proof of vaccination.
Children who are not vaccinated may get access with a vaccinated adult.
What the hell is this bullshit?
Ugh.
There have also been articles on benefits of vaccines for pregnant women.
Yay!
Benefits!
Here's a benefit.
You want a marble on your collarbone, lady, with your kid?
It balances out that bump.
Some city mayors getting COVID after the shot, claiming that only vaccines save them from severe reactions.
Jesus.
I love that.
That's my favorite.
This reminds me of the old wine scam.
Oh, do tell.
Well, a good wine guy, you have a floor, guys, and the thing is, you know these wines, you can say, this wine's no good.
It's, oh, no, no, it needs age.
It needs about five years of age, so just buy it and lay it down.
No, not necessarily.
It's bullcrap.
It's an old excuse.
The way you sell the wine is with some bogus, because you're not going to be there five years later.
Very few people work a wine store for more than a few years.
Yeah.
So if anyone tells you it needs age, don't buy it.
Just tell them to get lost.
Okay.
Another tip?
Here we go.
Okay, the COVID shot claiming that only vaccines say the rumors that one Russian vaccine is substituted for another less effective at vaccination sites.
Long articles denouncing said vaccine is called Epivac, a competitor to Sputnik, and so on.
So it's a mess.
Before June 16th, it was really not...
You know what?
Shall I tell you what that is?
You know what this is?
That's your CIA in Russia mucking around with them.
Don't you think this sounds like someone's in there making problems, spreading misinformation, making people worry?
Don't you think it's like, it just feels icky?
It's an interesting theory.
Could be.
Well, I mean, it's possible that they just got to get some more data points.
So they've gone to Russia to screw with them because we're not going to, we've already, we've lost the plot here.
Yeah.
You know, thanks to South Dakota, Florida and Texas.
Before June 16th, it was really not that rampant.
People are starting to notice.
Some are afraid.
Some call government out, at least in the comments.
Make of it what you will.
Best regards, anonymous interpreter.
Thank you very much.
Anonymous interpreter.
Did you find a note for Louie?
I want the anonymous interpreter to get a hold of me so I can get some interpreting.
Or I need to get some translating to some of my personal writing product.
Oh, to be in Russian?
Into Russian, yeah.
But I needed somebody in Russia because it's just better to have somebody in Russia.
Yes.
Let me continue with Wyatt Vermes.
I think it's Vermes.
I don't know.
Nothing for Lily Noon, right?
You couldn't find anything from her?
No, Lily Noon, you're not there.
Send me a note and we'll put you in the next show.
We'll highlight you.
Yeah.
Wyatt Verums or Worms in Phoenix, Oregon.
3, 4, 5, 6, 7.
There's a couple of people.
A lot of people in Oregon and North Carolina.
ITM, thank you for your courage and happy Dad Day.
Relationship karma would be nice.
If we can get some Jobs karma.
Oh, he has Jobs.
J-O-E-B-S karma.
Well, technically it is Jobs.
That will be great as well.
I got some fresh moss fruit from Lordran for the round table as well.
Thanks by E. Jobs.
Jobs.
Jobs.
Job.
You've got karma.
It's in there.
Job's.
So that's the Job's one.
Dame Blackhammer.
33374.
Jingle requests.
Ooh, these are good, actually.
The pansexual meatloaf.
That is a classic.
It's such a classic that I have to boost the volume on it.
We're all gonna die.
And what else do we have here?
And that's true.
Okay.
Does she have a karma there?
I don't see it.
um, uh, ITM boys, Dame Blockhammer here donating for father's day in honor of my smoking hot husband, the future sir C Mike who decided to forgo his knighthood to make me a dame in February.
I believe this is the family that has 18 children.
Uh, At least two of them bear our names, and all of them were born during the show.
During the 14 years of the show, I think.
I think.
And it may only be eight, but it could be nine.
He is the wearer of many hats.
No, is this a switcheroo?
She's giving him the donation?
In honor of my smoking hot husband.
Okay, and honor's not the same.
That's not the same.
No, this is the kind of woman who will take, she will take the credit herself.
She's just making him feel good.
Yeah, good for her.
She's one of, yeah.
Yeah, this is literally her...
I get the feeling she's a tough cookie.
Yeah, I'm not going to argue that.
He is the wearer of many hats, not the least of which are devoted husband and father and a man of great faith.
He hit me in the mouth in 2019 and I've only missed a couple episodes since.
I would be lost without him and look forward to many more years with him by my side.
N.A., no agenda, has been my source of sanity during the covidiasy that has defined this past 16 months.
Thank you for all you do to help us wade through the muck they call news.
Dame Blackhammer, Catholic wife, homeschooling mother of nine, and jack-of-all-trades, master at none, we disagree.
You're a tough cookie.
Anyone gonna eat this meatloaf?
We're all gonna die!
That's true.
That was your classic line.
Anyone gonna eat this meatloaf?
That is you, believe it or not.
Yeah, the EQ was a little different back in the day.
Yeah, oh well.
Ryan Turney in Stevens City, Virginia, 333.33.
Happy Father's Day to my dad.
Sir, not Jake.
He has mentioned the show for years, but really hit me in the mouth a few weeks ago.
I have been a not Jake donation.
And I have been steadily listening to the show for each day since then.
I wish, it's on every day, it's only on twice a week.
I only wish I had listened to him sooner.
Ah, ah.
I think there's a lot of people in that boat.
No jingles, no karma.
Thank you very much, Ryan.
Welcome.
And thank you for that Not Jake donation.
I did Tom Woods.
I think the show dropped.
Oh, yes.
You did Tom Woods again.
I think it drops Monday.
I think it comes Monday.
Oh, it drops Monday.
They're not going to run it?
No, they're just dropping it.
Oh, that's too bad.
Like it's hot.
Mm-hmm.
Dan Kovach from Dickinson, North Dakota, 3333.
I'm giving the birthday gift of executive producer of show 1357 to my smoking hot wife, Brandy Kovach.
Now, this is a switcheroo.
It's a switcheroo.
Yeah.
Brandy gets it.
Okay.
Brandy is switcherooed.
This is the only gift that keeps on giving the whole year.
Special thanks to Melissa for the no agenda donation reminder.
Keep up the great work.
Jingle, just send your money.
I think he means just send your cash.
And karma, yes please.
I know a lot of people want to send blankets or water.
Just send your cash.
You've got karma.
So Dan, the man's up on the next up.
Protector of Cape Coral and the islands of Sanibel and Captiva.
Yeah, Florida.
In Cape Coral, Florida, 333.33.
As we continue with our push for executive producerships throughout the next six months.
The 333.33 puts me into baronet status.
I'd like to be baronet of Cape Coral and the islands of Sanibel and Captiva.
You got it.
Also, a happy Father's Day to my dad.
I've attempted to hit him in the mouth a few times without luck.
I believe his amygdala is already too large, which I believe, and I think, yes, if it gets, yeah, at some point you just can't listen to what we do.
You can't shrink that shit.
No, it's unshrinkable.
You can't take it.
Yep.
Oh, well.
Thanks for everything.
Anyway, Dad.
Sincerely, Sir Dan the Man.
Martin Williamson, Aberdeen, from the Gitmo Nation East, Great Britain, 33333.
Please credit me donating, 33333, as it's my 33rd birthday on Sunday.
We have had so many 33rd birthdays this year.
It's insane.
Please dedouche me.
You've been dedouched.
And then he wants some mac and cheese and some shape-shifting...
Where are they?
The magical...
They are shape-shifting Jews.
Yep, we got that for you.
Thanks.
Please note, I tried to send the first note via email to John, but it didn't go through, so I'm sending it again to both John and Adam to ensure it goes through.
Believe me, that is your fault, Martin.
Not John's email.
It is your fault.
The note he sent me, the second note came true fine.
If you spell my name wrong, it never goes through.
This is true.
Okay, I'm just joking around.
It's not your problem.
It's never your fault.
You get no spam.
You're great.
You get no spam.
Mac and cheese.
Get no spam. Roll up for the basketball safety news.
Step right this way.
Roll up. Roll up for the safety news.
You've got karma. .
Okay, you're going to have to read the next two because I've been fooling around on the spreadsheet and I borked it.
This is from Zee.
And Berkeley, California.
Or you might say Zed, depending on where you're from.
33333.
Yo, John, it's your neighbor Z from South Berkeley.
Peace!
J&A would like to try to get the real BTC OG Max Kaiser to come to the yay for a stand-up rage.
If so, donate dollars for drinks.
Request, play seven goat screams to break the simulation.
Z's...
I happened to catch the Orange Pill podcast yesterday since Max Keiser decided to compete with Chairman Jerome Powell's live Federal Reserve press conference.
Towards the end of the show, Max mentioned his stand-up rage event in Austin featuring Adam Curry.
Pictures of free adult drinks and meat.
What?
What is this?
It is the featuring Adam Curry free adult drinks and meat.
I guess I'm sponsoring this now.
Their only planned Cali trip is Los Angeles.
Yes, this is the F Elon tour.
Can you two bring him to NorCal?
Maybe Pete Buttigieg's Wine Cave is available for the gig.
Seriously, though, I'm writing to let John know he's not alone and that the Bay Area No Agenda family can help make this happen if you just ask.
As an executive producer, I'm offering to assist in whatever way is needed.
Just hit up one of your loaded friends in the North Bay and let's party in the woods, reggae on the river style.
Sounds like that's a great invitation, John.
Yeah.
Definitely consider that.
Lastly, I'd like to wish my father, Stephen Searles, and grandfather, Don Searles, love and happiness for their awesome presence and positive influence on our family's life.
Halfway to damehood.
Keep it gangsta.
So it's a she.
Do we, I think, don't we know Don Searles or Stephen Searles?
Why do I think?
Well, Searles is a pretty famous name in the East Bay, largely because of a political science instructor or professor, I should say, at Cal.
I don't know.
Maybe.
Huh.
And this is the last time we're going to do this, because this would happen one time before.
It's no longer acceptable.
You can't just say, oh, just give me seven goat screams.
You know, it has to be a jingle that is just a jingle, so it's the last time.
It's also quite traumatizing.
Okay.
Some reason thought we did this note last show.
That would be hilarious.
I don't remember that read I did, though.
I don't remember the read either, but I do remember Searles, and I remember the...
Maybe that's why I remember Searles.
Yes, interesting.
And I do remember the mention of Max.
Well, it's a freebie twofer.
And I do remember the multiple goats.
So I don't know what the deal is.
Okay.
Okay, she got her note read a couple of times.
There you go.
Uh-huh.
John Helmer in Shawnee, Kansas is next up on the list at 33333.
And he writes in, or is it Adam and John?
I couldn't pass up the opportunity to become an executive producer for show 1357.
The numerology is too overpowering.
What is the numerology?
1357.
Hello, prime numbers.
Oh, it's a prime number.
The fact that it's almost Father's Day and then I'm drunk helped too.
Please give a...
You know, I would have promoted that.
Please give a...
And we would have gotten more donations.
Please give a...
Actually, our audience knows these things.
I don't think you have to promote anything.
Please give a Father's Day shout-out to my dad, who I love so dearly, Larry Helmer.
And I'll give myself a shout-out from my three human resources, Alex, Carrie, and Andrew.
Love and Lit?
Could I get the following jingles, Drunk or Not Drunk?
We talked about that earlier in the show.
Reverend Manning?
Well, hell's gonna break loose.
Your slaves can get a used mac and cheese.
Sir Baronet Von Helmer, Knight of the Three-Way Handshake.
Yeah.
Shawnee, Kansas.
Hey, yeah, baby.
Oh, hold on.
I have a problem with this drunk or not drunk.
There's so much stuff that is named drunk or not drunk.
Drunk or not drunk.
Yeah, that's the one we want.
Oh, here it is.
Original.
Drunk or not drunk.
They're saying that all hell is gonna break loose and you're gonna need a Bitcoin.
You slaves can get used to mac and cheese.
Mac and cheese.
Hey, everybody!
I don't know what that's about.
That's the full jingle.
Where'd that buzzer come from?
That's on the jingle.
The jingle ends with that.
We just rarely ever play it.
Okay, so we got John Wynn...
Who has a number of notes.
I don't know why I sent these over.
So I have no idea why there's nothing here.
He's 3333 in Austin, but I do have the...
Let's look at failed attempt at donation.
One of the many that he sent me.
I got it right here.
Hey, John, I tried to leave a note on PayPal, but it didn't work out too well.
I clicked on the executive producer.
He says he sent you a note.
If I received it, I would have sent it to the back office.
Well, I have something of a note here.
No, I don't have anything here.
Alright, let me check.
No, I do not have anything from him.
Okay, well I have a note from him saying the note didn't come through.
You know, Eric has this whole system.
We allowed producers to just log in and do that shit themselves.
Seems like it's going to be, at this point, anyone who's already donated, I think he can get in that system.
Because this is just crazy.
And I'm not saying it's anyone's fault.
It's just too many moving parts.
Well, you know, when somebody sends me a note and then they send me another note saying they sent me a note and I didn't get it.
Well, if you said, keep the old note on the new note.
Don't send me a note saying you didn't get my note.
Yes, I've seen this behavior as well.
Yeah, it's very screwy if you ask me.
So here we go with, this is Old River Mark Knight in Napomo, California.
And this is a note he sent in, which is a typewritten note, I believe.
Yeah.
Here's a donation.
333 is the current night.
I've been negligent in recent donations.
At the beginning of the COVID insanity, I was laid off from a large technology software company as part of a right sizing.
There's a term you haven't heard for a while.
Reflecting on the situation, my wife and I decided to leave the Bay Area and move down to the central coast near Pismo Beach.
Jeez.
May I request a title change?
Please change my title from Night of the River Mark to the Night of the Monarch Dunes.
Okay, hold on, because we don't have that.
As you write it down...
Say again, what is his name?
Night of the River Mark is his old title, and the new title should be Night of the Monarch Dunes.
It's a little MKUltra reference there.
Okay.
All right.
As I begin to engage in a new job search, I kindly ask for some major jobs, Karma, for a new product engineering leader role.
In Pismo Beach?
Okay.
Good luck.
We're going to give you the Karma.
May I please ask for one other future request.
California and the southwest in general have been bad as a bad drought this year.
Yeah, especially Arizona.
A robust rainy season this fall and through 2022 with lots of snowpack would be very, or he said, very beneficial for everyone.
May I kindly also ask for two shakes of the rain stick later this year.
Yeah, certainly not now.
We've been drowning.
I thought November 4th might be a good time.
Is there now the Sierras today?
Okay, it goes on.
Thank you very much.
Oh, Rivermark night.
Hopefully rebrand this night.
Blah, blah, blah.
Throwing in a jingles of choice and a climate jobs, jobs, jobs, Wuhan virus.
I don't know what that is.
Climate jobs, jobs, jobs, Wuhan virus.
Jingles of choice.
Climate jobs, Wuhan virus is what it says.
Uh, okay, well, I think...
Just rip off a few.
I know, okay, I hear you.
You make it sound really simple.
I don't have any...
I wasn't prepared for this.
Hold on.
I know, I do make it sound simple.
Yeah.
I mean, I... I'm simple-minded.
I just want to get this one.
Here, why don't I just do this one, and that should suffice, I think.
The science is in!
Science!
I'll give you a go.
You've got...
Karma.
Oh, he actually needs the jobs karma for his...
Oh, jobs?
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
Let's vote for jobs!
He's on his way to a good job as we speak.
Yes.
Mika.
Mika Edgerton in Linden, Washington.
333.
Where's the name Mika come from?
Or Micah.
Could also be Micah.
Could be Micah, could be Micah, but where's it come from?
It's a very popular name I see a lot.
From Michael?
Just lazy-ass parents?
Like, call the kid Michael.
No, it's got to be for some soap opera star or something.
Oh, okay.
Hi, guys.
ITM. I could use a de-douching.
I love the show.
Also, I'll give her the de-douching.
You've been de-douched.
Also, might have missed it.
Have you guys covered the Brett Weinstein podcast episode where he interviews Pierre Corey about treating COVID with ivermectin?
It's fascinating.
Well, here's the problem.
It's like all of these things for us, it's like we're in the end zone and we're tired of dancing.
It's like I expect any day now there's going to be a big announcement because everything we've talked about has come true.
The lab, the ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, the PCR testing.
Before you know it, it's like Michelle Obama's a dude.
It's like I'm tired of being right.
I'm tired of being right.
Yes, it is fascinating.
And I believe he got at least a strike on YouTube for it.
And the big thing with Brett Weinstein now is he's saying, oh, this is my livelihood.
Yeah.
And I've seen so many producers saying, hey, podcasting 2.0.
Hey, value for value.
John and Adam have figured it out.
Go do this.
Yeah.
Does he reach out?
Does he respond?
No.
No, he's a progressor.
It doesn't come down to the people who have pioneered the medium and the process.
No, no, no.
Don't do that.
Just sit up there on your high, dark horse.
Yeah, and bitch and moan about YouTube.
But it is a good episode.
We have never complained about YouTube.
No, because we're not on it.
Right.
But it is a good episode, and yes, this is not surprising.
We have played testimony in the United States Senate.
We have played ivermectin stuff up the butt.
I wrote a thing on Substack about it.
Up the butt.
We've done too much.
But I love your phrase.
This is a keeper.
What's my phrase?
I want to make sure that I can borrow it and use it without attribution.
What phrase?
We're in the end zone and we're tired of dancing.
And that's from a sports guy like me.
I know, thank you.
That's excellent.
I actually wrote that one down.
So you can use it on the show?
Yeah, but I made it up myself.
I have a cheat sheet of things I want to say.
I appreciate the fact you made it up.
You don't have to brag about it.
I'm just asking you if I can use it.
Of course you can.
Of course.
I just wanted to make sure.
Of course.
I want to make it official.
Oh, of course.
Cal Corbin's next on the list, and he's yours to read.
In the morning, John and Adam, my last and only donation was many years ago while the 6969 promotion was still going on.
Yes, that went on for years and years and years.
And we said if we have one show without a 6969, we would retire the jingle.
And we did.
I would have kept donating that amount, but Adam discontinued it in a huff one show.
What?
Hold on.
I was not in a huff.
You were the one that was saying we're going to stop it when we don't get that donation.
Okay.
I like to blame you.
And I hate dogs.
You do.
So I, he continues, a little annoyed.
Oh, they had to put, Biden had to put Champ down.
He's dead.
He's in his place.
Put him in his place, that dog.
I'm really playing as well.
I think he's biting people.
Oh, totally.
They had to euthanize him.
Of course they did.
They didn't mention that.
They said he just died.
They gave him a COVID shot and he died.
And this is very lowbrow.
We're getting worse.
Just keep reading the notes.
By the way, that note is 333.
Yes, 333.
Spartanburg, South Carolina.
All right, so here we go.
So he says that he stopped donating because I in a huff canceled the 6969 promotion, which is not true.
We were going to cancel it when it no longer received a donation, which means you apparently stopped donating before I stopped it in a huff.
Otherwise, we would still be doing it.
Actually, you're right.
It's his fault because if he had donated 6969 on that day...
Thank you.
It would have continued.
So who do you think you are sending us 333 and complaining?
Death.
He wants to de-douchey.
You bet.
You've been de-douchey.
Oh, but wait, there's more.
I just have a few show notes and my dedication, and I'll try to be short.
Well, I can tell you it didn't work out so well.
First of all, I know you guys care about language a lot, so I wanted to let you know I noticed you guys used the word amount wrongly.
Wrongly!
We used the word amount wrongly, John.
I just want you to see the grammar here.
Wouldn't that be incorrectly?
I don't think there's...
Is there a thing such as wrongly?
It probably is.
I think he's trying to trick us.
Amount is for things that are not countable, like sugar.
But things that are countable use number instead, like grains of sugar.
So if we say the amount, what's the amount of that, what does the item cost?
Yeah, I guess.
Does he have an example of where we made a misstep?
I don't think so.
Oh, well then we can't.
What is good is it?
Where's the example?
I don't think we've, I would claim that we've never misused the word term amount.
Oh, that's possible.
But okay.
Secondly, a few weeks ago, Adam played a clip of a woman talking about the vaccine affecting menstrual cycles, and I could not believe it!
You guys missed her correcting herself from saying women to people who menstruate.
Yes, many people noticed this, and I think we even brought it up on a subsequent show.
I know, it's unbelievable.
Can you believe it, that of 50 clips in a three-hour show, that we miss stuff?
I know, it's inexcusable.
Other than that...
He's a producer.
He can say what he wants.
But of course, we need to take the criticism, but in our relationship, I get to yell back at the boss immediately.
That's the fun part.
And then he can donate and bitch back.
Other than that, the show is perfect.
Thank you.
This donation is dedicated to my dad, who will never hear it because he's completely brainwashed.
Oh, that's a shame.
And would probably fly into a rage at listening to you guys for two minutes.
And since he's been vaccinated, of course, I'd hate to give him a heart attack by subjecting him to the show.
Love you anyways, Dad.
And of course you do.
We all love our dads.
No matter what happens.
Dads are dads and they do the best with the tools they have.
I'd like to dedicate this also to my uncle, Sir Gator of Gitmo America.
Okay, he sounds like the cool uncle.
Sir Gator of Gitmo America, and thank him for hitting me in the mouth all those years ago.
I owe my extremely small amygdala in large part to him.
Happy Father's Day.
Shout out to my smoking hot Russian wife who loves you guys as much as me and my Aunt Dame of the Thrones as well.
Jingle requests.
No agenda like a kick to the crotch.
John's donate.
Trump arouse.
6969, of course.
And shut up, slave.
And a hearty baby making karma dosage.
Thank you very much!
The No Agenda Show, like a kick to the crotch!
It was hard to get it aroused, and it is hard to get it aroused, but we got it aroused.
69!
69, dudes!
Oh.
Oh, man.
Shoot.
It failed.
Let me try that again.
Here we go.
Epic fail.
Yeah, epic fail.
No, it's not firing.
What's going on?
Oh, crap.
Curva button's dead.
I'm going to have to do it all over then.
Otherwise, it just doesn't work with the sequence.
The no agenda show, like a kick to the crotch.
It was hard to get it aroused, and it is hard to get it aroused, but we got it aroused.
69!
69, dudes!
Shut up, slay.
You've got...
Donate!
Donate!
If that doesn't work, talk about your MKUltra.
That was good.
That was great.
Chelsea Heenan is up next.
I want to thank all these folks, by the way.
This is a very good day for us.
Thanks to the Father's Day turnaround.
Totally.
It's a nice Father's Day present for two fathers.
Yeah, we're two fathers.
That's right.
Chelsea Keenan in Fairmont, Minnesota.
That's 23456.
It's a donation I don't see enough anymore.
Hey, guys!
This donation is for my smoking hot husband, who is a great father to human resources.
I want him to have the title of executive producer.
Okay, switcheroo.
It's another switcheroo.
Mm-hmm.
I also want to watch...
Does he have a name or is it just...
Oh yeah, Michael.
Michael, okay, got it.
I also wish him a Happy Father's Day.
Michael, we love you.
And also to all the fathers listening to the best podcasts in the universe, we will also be celebrating our sixth wedding anniversary on 271 on the 27th.
On the 27th, yeah.
For jingles, can I get a little girl a Sleepy Joe?
A Fousey Wheeze?
A little girl a Yay?
Can I get a little girl a Sleepy Joe?
Oh, okay.
I'm trying to think what that was.

Happy Father's Day to my best friend of 22 years, and we've never had a fight.
Please give me some house-buying karma, along with the full Reverend Al role, with respect, and dogs are people too.

Well worth the jams.
Very nice.
Thank you.
Scott Smith, Noblesville, Indiana.
I was hit in the mouth by my neighbor Greg a couple years back.
I drifted away for a bit, then came back around to see what you fellas had to say about the global scandemic.
I was hooked once again as commentary on the show aligns closely with my views.
Yes, that's the bias.
Over the past year, I've had the show playing while my daughter Mackenzie is in the truck with me.
Mack loves the jingles and likes to sing along with them.
Of course, this is one of our secrets.
This is my third donation.
After my last one, Mack asked if I had officially been deduced.
I told her I didn't donate enough to get a letter read on the show, to which she replied, Oh, you're still a douchebag, huh, Dad?
So please de-douche me.
Yes, Mackenzie, you are right.
Your daddy's a douchebag.
No more.
You've been de-douched.
She will grow up to be a fine young American woman, I can tell already.
By the way, he continues, I've tried to listen to other podcasts, but the sound quality on most is so terrible, I can't stand it.
You guys set the bar for quality.
Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there, and health and jobs karma for all.
Well, absolutely.
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
Let's vote for jobs!
You've got karma.
Thank you, Scott.
You should be getting an award from the AEA or some audio engineering society.
I won't hold my breath.
No, not going to happen.
Along with our Webby.

I want a Webby.

$200.
By the way, Scott Smith was $200, too.
To keep the ship running, sir, that's it.
Alex, 200 bucks, another one.
Keep my name anonymous, just Alex.
Love ya, mean it, from Alex.
All right.
Sir Colin the Friendly Fat Man.
I haven't heard from Sir Colin in a while.
In the morning, John Adam, I've been hit in the mouth by the host of the Private Citizen podcast, thankfully already before the pandemic started to threaten the sanity of us all.
So one year ago, I subscribed by a small monthly donation amount, and since then I've never missed a show, which helped keep my amygdala so small.
To celebrate my first year of supporting the show and also my 53rd birthday today, which, being a father myself, I am pleased to learn also happens to be Father's Day in your country.
Please accept this special donation for episode 1357.
Thank you for your courage.
No jingles, no karma.
And thank you, Sir Colin the Friendly Fat Man.
You are on the list.
Appreciate it.
When does he come in from Cincinnati?
I don't know what that's all about.
Well, he's in Cincinnati, Ohio.
He's obviously not in Cincinnati.
How do you figure?
Well, he says that we celebrate Father's Day in our country.
Didn't he say something to that?
No.
In your country.
That means he's not in our country to know this.
I don't think he said that.
I'm pleased to learn it also happens to be Father's Day in your country.
Well, Cincinnati maybe has seceded and we just weren't paying attention.
Maybe it's China.
It wouldn't surprise me.
I know Texas is about to turn into five states.
It's the C and CCP, baby.
Cincinnati Chinese Party.
Zeus is next and last on the list.
200 bucks from Dublin, Ireland.
Alright!
Yes!
This is a group donation related to a meetup, a clip relating to which is attached to some other email or something.
Sorry, I'm unsure how exactly this works.
I hope this is appropriate.
Thanks, Zeus, from the Dublin-Ireland meetup.
All right.
Well, good news has it that Zeus figured it out, had absolutely no problem getting me this meetup report since it's only 38 seconds and the meetup was rather small.
Why don't we play it now as a special thank you for this meetup donation?
In the morning, John and Adam and everyone else who's listening, we're in Ireland.
Took your advice, Adam.
Since there were no meetups in the area, we organized our own one.
We had a massive gathering of two people.
It was ignored by the mainstream media, of course.
We talked about VPNs, we talked about CNN, JRE, DUP. Now tell me you don't feel like that was a meet-up you wanted to be a part of.
That sounds like those guys were hilarious.
Yeah.
And so they could do a top 40 morning show, those two.
They could.
They sound a little bit like a morning Zoom, just the two of them.
Yeah, that vibe was very good, very impressive, gentlemen.
Thank you very much.
Thank you for your courage, and thank you for the meetup donation.
And thank all of our executive producers and associate executive producers for episode 1,357 of the No Agenda show.
This is a good one, and the dadications have been very nice.
As a dad, I know how good it feels when you get just that little bit of attention.
My daughter did like a four-picture public display of affection on Instagram for me with pictures.
What did you get?
I won't know until after dinner tonight.
Oh, is everyone coming over?
Everyone love you and come hang out?
Yeah.
Nice.
Okay.
Well, there will be a quiz on Thursday.
And we'll thank the rest of our producers in our second segment.
If you'd like to join in this merry band of producership, you can do that for the next program.
Just go to this website.
Thank you again for your time, your talent, your treasure, and your producing skills.
Our formula is this.
We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
What's the God about that jingle?
I like that kid.
Yeah, it's a new regular jingle now.
Kick to the crotch.
Yes, yes, yes.
I want to get a couple of news stories out of the way.
Sure.
Unlike everything else we do.
Well, I mean, we...
Yeah, but when I say news, I mean international.
Yeah, I gotcha.
How about just catching up on what happened in Iran?
Yes, there was an election.
Yeah, and they brought in some...
And here's kind of a...
This is probably the best background.
This is an NPR backgrounder.
They brought some guy in and he chatted it up.
I think this is all you get.
We don't have to do anything besides this.
World leaders...
Sorry.
On this election.
Go ahead.
World leaders are sending congratulations to Iran's newly elected president, Ebrahim Raisi.
As expected, Raisi won a four candidate race in convincing fashion with the backing of Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
Raisi now has four years to try to turn Iran's depressed economy around.
NPR's Peter Kenyon is in Tehran and joins us now.
Hi, Peter.
Hi, sir.
So how did Raisi manage such a convincing victory?
Well, he's been known for some time as a prominent hardline cleric and judge.
He's known to be close to the supreme leader.
None of the other candidates were as familiar to the public, I think it's fair to say.
But perhaps the biggest factor in Raisi's success was the candidate selection process.
That's handled by a largely clerical group known as the Guardian Council.
They're charged with vetting potential candidates and, And critics say the Council made sure to disqualify the most serious potential rivals to Raisi, including people like Parliament Speaker Ali Larajani or Vice President Eshak Jehangari.
So Raisi had an advantage going into this very brief campaign.
There was a lot of talk about low turnout and even a call to boycott the vote.
How did that turn out?
Well, there are strong signs that the boycott message was heard.
I can tell you from going around to precincts in Tehran, many were seeing far fewer voters than in previous elections.
It made casting a ballot much easier for those who did turn out.
But for a country that prides itself on big election turnouts, it wasn't really a strong showing.
Independent groups put it at well below 50%.
Although the official estimate of turnout is higher.
Yeah, that seemed to be the main thing.
The people went, screw it, I'm not even going.
And so it was easy for this guy to shoo in.
But Trump was always yakking about this guy, so he said he was bad.
Yeah, he's a bad guy.
Is he?
Yeah.
I think so, but let's play part two and explain it a little better than I can.
And what can you tell us about Raisi?
Who is he?
He's a judge.
He's the head of Iran's judiciary, also a hardline cleric.
The main criticism you hear about him regarding his time as a judge was in the late 1980s.
There were mass executions ordered by the court that he was on.
Thousands of political prisoners were killed.
Beyond that, he's definitely seen as a protege of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the supreme leader.
It's also well known that Raisi has ambitions to succeed Khamenei as Iran's next supreme leader.
And moving forward, what are his political priorities?
Well, at the moment he doesn't have much room to maneuver there.
The top priority has to be Iran's depressed economy.
Years of US sanctions have devastated household incomes.
Every Iranian I spoke with this week said the number one task of the next president has to be raising the living standards of ordinary Iranians.
Now, how exactly he might accomplish that is another question, not exactly clear.
There are talks in Vienna aimed at restoring the 2015 nuclear deal, bringing the U.S. back into the agreement and Iran back into compliance.
That could lead to the lifting of sanctions and might give the new government a chance to work on improving the economy.
Peter, in the Iranian system, how much power does Raisi actually have to carry out his policies?
Well, good point.
The Iranian president is not the decider when it comes to policymaking.
That's the supreme leader.
One Iranian put it this way.
said the president's comparable to a general director who has a nice title but basically serves to carry out the wishes of the CEO.
That would be the supreme leader in this case.
On the other hand, Raisi's political views are said to be closely aligned with the supreme leader's own views.
So they may wind up working with little friction, but there'll be no doubt who's the boss.
One question world powers will be asking is how a Raisi government might engage with the outside world.
For instance, Raisi is said to be in favor of getting the 2015 nuclear deal restored to full operation with the U.S. back in it.
But to be safe, proponents of the deal say negotiators in Vienna trying to accomplish that would do very well to finish their job before August.
That's when the post-election transition in Iran ends, Rouhani exits, and Raisi takes office.
Well, that doesn't make any sense.
It was very informative.
It was, but the end of it doesn't make any sense.
What's the reason for rushing for a new deal before this guy gets in if this guy wants that?
Well, you know, it's interesting.
I also have an Iran report from CBS, and we don't have to play it because it was very similar.
You know, it goes back to the beginning of what we were saying at the beginning of this show.
This is, it's like digital threads that are being spun around us to bring you into an idea of what is happening in Iran and why we need to do X, Y, or Z. You know what I mean?
It's like, it's just all this media is just shaping what they want to do, and I think they have to deal with, they, I mean, the Biden administration has to deal with Iran one way or the other, so that they're pre-spinning something.
They're getting the silken threads out, making us, you know, preparing us.
Well, this guy's really not important, doesn't really matter, but, you know, it's really the supreme leader, you know, people didn't care.
And they did the same thing with North Korea.
Have you noticed any North Korean chatter in the media in the M5M? Not much.
CBS Evening News...
Now, just to recap, because we are so forgetful...
President Obama, by his own admission as far as I know, or at least he's confirmed it, told incoming President Trump, hey man, you really got to watch North Korea.
We had the axis of evil with the Bush administration.
We had all kinds of saber rattling during the Obama administration.
Then President Trump came in and said, I'll push this button and blow you up.
My button works.
Shut the F up.
Remember we had Hawaii go in lockdown running to bomb shelters because of a North Korean missile.
They were going to attack Hawaii.
I was in the Netherlands when people were saying, oh my God, we're so worried about North Korea, North Korea.
Remember, it was insane.
People had been jacked up about North Korea.
So now, no, nothing happened.
North Korea did not attack.
President Trump walked across the demilitarized zone, gave him a hearty, hey, hi, ho, how you doing?
And we didn't really hear much from North Korea at all.
But now the Biden administration is in.
So we need to have something happen.
And Well, we're not going to go back to that old, we're really afraid, because no one will buy that.
So instead, we're going to shape the narrative about Kim Jong-un like this.
There is news tonight from North Korea.
Kim Jong-un has warned his government to be prepared for a confrontation with the United States.
But what really caught the world's attention is the sudden change in Kim's appearance.
We get more now on all of it from CBS's David Martin.
Kim Jong-un holds all the power in North Korea, and because that power includes nuclear weapons, his every public appearance is scrutinized for clues to what is really going on inside his hermit kingdom.
One thing for sure, he's losing weight.
CBS News consultant Bob Carlin has watched Kim battle obesity over the years.
He was pretty seriously overweight, and now he's heading back down.
You can see it not just in his face but on his wrist where his watch band seems to have been taken in another notch.
Is he simply leading a more healthy lifestyle or are his genes starting to catch up with him?
Both his grandfather and his father died of heart problems.
In his speech, Kim said North Korea must remain ready for war.
But he also seemed ready for negotiations with the Biden administration.
He talked about what he called the evolving policy of the new U.S. administration.
He sounds as if he's saying things are moving in the right direction.
But U.S. intelligence has warned, quote, Kim remains strongly committed to nuclear weapons.
These efforts could include the resumption of nuclear weapons and intercontinental ballistic missile testing.
Kim's real intentions remain a mystery, but it's safe to say that while he's losing weight, he's also gaining nuclear weapons.
Tony?
I mean, what is this?
Nuclear weapons?
Oh, scary.
But he's losing weight.
I don't get it.
The Kim Jong Crossfit, everybody.
I don't understand the problem that they can't just report on what an actual threat may be.
Has anyone said anything?
No.
All they do is they notice the guy's lost some weight, so they got to come out and make a whole story about it.
It's TMZ. It's TMZ. Yeah, that's what it sounds like.
And then we have this little ditty.
I always get the biggest kick out of stories from the Hermit Kingdom.
Yes, the Hermit Kingdom.
They slip that in.
How do you get any stories out?
It makes no sense.
This is NBC now about China's latest space exploration.
Wait, before you continue.
Sorry.
Whatever happened to North Korea being this big cyber threat to a bunch of hackers?
Whatever happened to that?
Yeah.
Whatever happened to that storyline?
How come only Sony?
Why not Disney?
Why not anybody since Sony?
Yeah.
Go after CNN. Cyberhack.
They haven't gone after anybody.
It's all bullcrap.
They never had a cyber threat.
But okay, I just had to get there.
No, but what we did get is a lot of embarrassing stuff out on the street, which I think, didn't that ultimately lead to Harvey Weinstein in some odd way?
Maybe.
It's possible, right?
It might, because there's some notes in there.
Maybe.
Alright, here's NBC News on China.
Tonight of first, China sending astronauts to its new space station, blasting off from the Gobi Desert.
Six and a half hours later, docking 242 miles above the Earth.
This is a milestone for China.
It's poured billions into becoming a space power, and it's getting there fast.
The Chinese station called Tiangong or Heavenly Palace is a quarter the size of the International Space Station, but a rival.
China frozen out of the ISS by U.S. security concerns.
But with the ISS getting old, China could have the only space outpost.
This phase of the Chinese space program is something they've been chomping at the bit to do for a decade now.
The unusually public fanfare, timed for the Communist Party's 100th anniversary next month, shows China's growing confidence, having also just landed a rover on Mars.
Are China and the U.S. now technical equals?
The U.S. is more advanced, says the mission's chief designer, but China develops space programs for its own needs.
Despite a ban on cooperation, NASA sent congratulations, while tonight, high above the Earth, Chinese astronauts smiled, waved, and took their place in history.
So we have a counter to this, to this new bitchin' ass space station the Chinese have.
We have a program of our own which is going to really change space travel.
And NASA made a commercial.
At NASA, we're on a mission of equity, launching opportunity.
Equal opportunity to challenge and inspire.
To learn and thrive.
To reach those we've never reached before.
To use science, data, and technology to advance equity.
To shatter boundaries.
And break down barriers across America.
To create a better future.
We hope you'll join us on this mission.
There you go.
The mission of equity, John.
That is what NASA's doing.
So there's, let's see, we have two female pilots.
We have all, it's Benetton, all colors of the rainbow.
We're on a mission of equity.
Is that going to get us tomorrow?
Yeah, somebody's on a mission of equity.
It's, oh my goodness.
And I'm always confused by equity.
When people say, well, equity is not equality.
With equity, you're giving everybody an equal piece of the outcome.
I'm like, that doesn't sound right.
When we use equity, don't you have like equity in a company?
It doesn't mean you have the same as everybody else does.
You just have a piece of it.
I got a piece of equity.
Yeah, this equity term really needs clarification.
It does, because it's being used incorrectly.
Well, I think it's being used in a multitude of ways, and it's just like the code.
And it's also code.
Oh, well, it's all code.
Oh, yeah.
Well, speaking of such, here is the latest noodle gun, which could not have happened to a nicer guy, Manuel Miranda of...
Yeah, I've got the biggest kick out of this story.
Yeah, but he is.
So Bill Maher does a little piece on it on his show.
Here's just a quick clip explaining the sitch.
I was reading also about Lin-Manuel Miranda this week.
He of Hamilton fame and, you know, won a Pulitzer Prize for it.
He's got a new musical, The Heights, which is about Washington Heights.
I know that neighborhood.
My father parked in it every day of his life, going to New York, coming over from New Jersey and then taking the subway down to Midtown.
And he wrote the music and lyrics.
His parents are Puerto Rican, came to this country from Puerto Rico.
The book is by someone who's half Puerto Rican.
It got 96% rotten tomatoes.
People loved it.
Great reviews, for which he has apologized profusely.
Why?
Well, there's Latinx performers, one black lead, but no Afro-Latinx.
The committee that makes note of everyone's skin tone discovered this, and then Lin-Manuel Miranda had to say, I'm truly sorry.
I'm learning from the feedback.
I thank you for raising it, and I'm listening.
I promise to do better in my future project.
I'm gonna shoot you in the face with my noodle gun, you racist piece of shield.
I got my pasta glock locked and loaded.
It's one thing that somehow that becomes an issue, that it's news.
It's the other to go, oh yes, I'm so sorry, I'm learning from my mistakes.
I'll be a better person.
Learning from my mistakes is the one.
This guy's doomed.
Oy, oy, oy, oy, oy, oy.
That's just too much, man.
That's too much.
Way too much.
It's way too much.
You know, we never got to, I realize, and I'm not sure, I do know how it happened.
We never did your Houston clip, which is one of the best clips of the whole damn show.
The OTG summer, which is completely predicted.
I had this happen to me when I lived in the apartment in Austin.
Oh, I didn't know this happened to you.
Yes, we just, well, I don't want to give away the clip, so we'll play it and then everyone can, and we'll discuss it.
The main way ERCOT is asking everyone to conserve power is by turning up the temperature on their thermostats.
But what if someone else is doing it for you without your knowledge?
Matt Doherty is hearing from folks in Deer Park who say it's happening to them.
When Brandon English got home from work yesterday, the house was hot.
She had cranked it down at about 2.30.
It takes a long time for this house to get cool once it gets that hot.
Earlier in the day, Brandon's wife and their daughters decided to take their afternoon nap.
They had been asleep long enough that the house had already got 78 degrees.
So they wake up sweating.
Without anyone touching it, the thermostat was changed while they were sleeping, making their home unbearably hot.
It was my daughter at the point of overheating.
You know, she's three months old.
They dehydrate very quickly.
We're very careful when we go out places, let alone her covered up in the bed, just getting hot.
Soon after that, his wife got an alert on her phone.
The thermostat had been changed remotely, raising the temperature during a three-hour energy-saving event.
The family smart thermostat was installed a few years ago as part of a new home security package.
Many smart thermostats can be enrolled in a program called Smart Savers Texas.
It's operated by a company called Energy Hub.
The agreement says that in exchange for entry into a sweepstakes, electric customers allow for the company to access their thermostats during periods of high energy demand.
Their list of its clients include TXU Energy, CenterPoint, and ERCOT. Brandon says he unenrolled their thermostat as soon as he found out.
Because you never would have done it.
No, I wouldn't.
I wouldn't want anybody else controlling my things for me.
A scroll through a Houston Reddit board shows Brandon's not alone.
Several others say they found out during this week's heat wave that their thermostats were being accessed remotely as well.
Brandon says although it's been convenient, it's just not worth it.
If somebody else can manipulate this, I'm not for it.
In Deer Park, I'm Matt Doherty, KHOU 11 News.
So this is now a big surprise.
Again, a little end zone dance.
When Tina and I moved into the apartment together in downtown Austin, there was a Nest thermostat.
And I was starting to figure out, you know, I was just messing around with a pie hole, which locks off all kinds of nefarious communications.
You can filter your network usage.
And what I noticed immediately is this Nest, which came with the apartment, was already configured and talking, and you'd walk by it.
It would start sending data.
there was one of these hot summers and I got a message on the nest screen and said, would you like to enroll in the green energy, something or other.
And, you know, there was, and it was just, you could just twist the knob and press it down to say, yes, I went and looked at what it was and I saw that they could access your, your device remotely.
And so I opted out of that and then I, I disconnected it from the wifi.
So I don't know if it still might have been communicating somehow.
But this has been going on for a long time.
And now they finally employed it.
At least on a big scale.
And people are going, what?
What?
And it's just one way they're using you.
Think of all the information they really have and what they're really doing with it, with your finances, with your profile.
Not so fun when they turn up the heat.
That's the future.
But isn't it interesting that someone somewhere believes that to be a good idea?
Like, well, people will enjoy our product when they wake up sweating.
Seriously.
They wake up sweating hot.
What meeting was this approved?
With a dead baby in bed.
What meeting did this go through where people said, yeah, you know, this is a great product, and we'll make people sweat, and they'll love us even more when it happens.
This is the kind of meetings, we've seen this at Google when they've tried to do social networks, and they have a naive, they don't have a realistic view of actual life.
You're right.
That's a good point.
That's a good point.
It's gotten worse since they've, you know, kind of cocooned in their own environment.
You know, the Google campus, the Google, you know, you go there, you spend days and nights there because you have food service, free food, and, you know, little robots drive you around and free buses and everything's free.
Yeah.
Yes.
Not quite the way people live.
So they take a naive look at the world.
Yeah, and they just think that that's great.
Oh yeah, so cool.
I believe they're sincere.
Oh, I think you're right.
They could focus on my refrigerator ordering the milk when it's out.
But this is close.
They're doing something good.
It's good for the Earth, good for the planet.
People will love that.
They'll do things great.
So I have these three short clips on the free trade pact that's causing trouble.
Oh.
Because it's causing trouble because it turns out to be pro-union, pro-environment, pro-everything.
This is the pact that Trump put in place of NAFTA. Really?
And people don't like it?
No, they love it.
But now that this turns out to be a pretty cool idea and it's working pretty well, according to NPR, and we can play these three clips is free trade pack one, two and three is that they won't even mention Trump.
Oh, I see.
I see the problem.
Okay.
Yeah.
Clip one.
in an auto parts factory along its northern border.
As NPR's Carrie Kahn reports, the U.S. government asked for a review of complaints of unfair labor practices using a new provision of the Free Trade Pact between the two countries and Canada.
Okay.
Now, they mentioned the pact named it.
They do everything.
But they do everything they can to avoid mentioning.
Because they do this with stuff that didn't work or stuff they don't like.
Yeah, they say Trump's this, Trump's that.
Oh, Biden, Biden, Biden.
But no, no, no.
They assiduously avoid it.
And it's fun to listen to.
That's good.
The violation of workers' rights allegedly occurred at the Tritonex Auto Parts Factory in Matamoros, just across the border from Brownsville, Texas.
Workers at the plant, whose parent company is based in Philadelphia, say they were harassed and even fired in their attempts to organize a union not controlled by management.
Can I stop this clip here?
What company in Philadelphia?
I don't know.
They say there's a company, this American company, that's behind this operation, that's violating workers' rights, and they go out of their way not to mention the name of the company, because they mention other names of other companies in this report.
Hmm.
That's interesting.
I wonder what that could be.
I found it to be interesting and revealing, you know, the NPR bias.
Who knows what this company's not.
I'm sure if it was, what's his name, MyPillow, they'd definitely talk about him.
Must be Cheese Steaks?
How about Heinz?
Isn't Heinz from Philadelphia?
Heinz?
Yeah, Heinz ketchup?
Heinz.
Heinz, yes, Heinz.
There's no T in Heinz.
Did I say Heinz?
I said Heinz.
You said Heinz.
No, I didn't.
I said Heinz.
You said Achtun Heinz.
Okay.
No, it's not Heinz, I'm sure.
But it could be.
But I don't care.
I mean, why don't they mention it?
It just makes no sense to me.
Because John Kerry is part of the Heinz family.
If it's Heinz.
It could be.
Could be.
But if it's Heinz, you never know.
But I don't know that Heinz is in Philadelphia or where they are.
I don't know where Heinz is.
Yeah, they are.
I'm going to find out.
I'm telling you, they're in Philly.
They're in Philly.
Under the newly enacted USMCA, the trade pact that replaced NAFTA, complaints can be levied against individual factories and must be quickly investigated.
Mexico had 10 days to respond to U.S. allegations and 45 days to submit its results.
This is the second U.S. request for an investigation in Mexico.
The other involves a union vote at a General Motors plant in Guanajuato State.
They mentioned General Motors.
No problem with that.
Heinz is headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Isn't that crazy?
No, I didn't know where they were headquartered, but it wasn't you being crazy.
It was this assertive name, Heinz.
Heinz.
And they have Mexican beans with a Z. One of their products is Mexican beans.
I think it's them.
I'm telling you.
It makes nothing but sense, and then if that's even remotely true, which it could be.
Wouldn't that be great?
It's like, what a bunch of dipshits at the NPR, not to mention it.
Oh my God, it's going against the narrative, and maybe some Democrat will lose a vote.
Well, no, John Kerry is our climate, no, isn't he our climate czar?
Yeah, he's the climate czar.
Yeah, the watermelon head.
Watermelon head, watermelon, watermelon sugar head.
So, I will play my very short climate change clips then, just to let you know that, hey, it's hot outside, must be climate change!
And health officials are warning people to stay inside during the heat of the day.
The pavement and the sand is so hot in parts of the West that doctors are reporting seeing patients with second to third degree burns on their feet.
Because they're idiots.
Wait, but wait, there's more!
40 million people are sweltering tonight, living under a so-called heat dome.
It's melting high-temperature records and making dangerous drought conditions even worse.
I got a heat dome!
How about NBC? In sweltering Phoenix, doctors warning the public touching a doorknob, a car handle, or standing barefoot on asphalt could lead to severe burns.
Wow, it's like we've never had hot weather.
Nobody...
I've been to Phoenix in July.
Yeah, any idiot who's ever been in and out around Arizona knows these rules.
It's called summer.
It's called summer rules, everybody.
Last one.
Well, in Arizona, they're very...
You have to be really...
You know, it gets hot.
But...
This is a nonsense report.
People in Arizona aren't stupid.
NBC Nightly News.
As extreme temperatures blanket the west, southwest, and parts of the plains, new records are being shattered by 10 degrees, some cities at 30 above average.
According to the EPA, our nation is now suffering through more heat waves than ever before, many starting earlier and going later in the year.
Not only are they longer, but more intense than the past.
We're looking at driving our world to a climate where lots of places are going to be a real challenge to live.
These heat waves are going to be more common, more intense, and more devastating.
Tonight, our changing planet and a blistering threat across the West.
So yeah, there you go.
We're all going to die.
Although you guys actually have some problems there.
You really are kind of out of water, aren't you?
Yeah.
Well, kind of.
Kind of.
Even though there's a giant bay here.
But that's okay.
Well, you can't do anything with the bay.
Yeah, you can.
You get the water desalinization plant using solar power.
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
Free water.
Yeah.
Oh, free.
Yeah, I can see.
It'll be free.
Just as long as no one...
We can't do a rain stick.
We got the brunt of the rain.
We cannot have any more rain here.
We're done with that.
No.
It doesn't work here in California half the time.
No.
Get out while you can, John.
I'm going to show my support by donating to No Agenda.

And, you know, so it was like the other morning.
It was like 8 o'clock and I was up and...
I haven't had my coffee yet, and I see my sister-in-law calls me.
So what do you do when your sister-in-law calls you on a weekday, eight in the morning?
You pick up, right?
It's like, I was thinking something's wrong.
So she goes, so what's this Delta variant bullcrap?
I'm like, oh man, I haven't had coffee yet.
So she's donating for doing that to me.
Oh, well, that's nice.
Have her call more often.
She seems to be in Highland, Indiana.
I thought she was in Chicago.

So that's 2J in Weatherford, Texas.
The notes are very obvious if you just...
I don't know why people can't do it.

I don't know if I have it here.
I do.
She donates very routinely ever since she became a dame, which we urge.
In her note, she says, I worked at a pizza joint in my youth, and the owner let us experiment.
My favorite, this is after a commentary about Hawaiian pizza.
Oh, about, yes, Hawaiian pizza.
Shrimp and jalapeno on whole wheat crust.
Yum!
Then I got a shellfish allergy love and light at midnight.
Yum!
Until it wasn't so yum.
Yeah, and I was throwing up a lot.
Which sounds like a possibility.
And last on our list is Leanne Shipley in Covington, Washington.
$50.
I want to thank all these folks and people underneath them.
Yeah, there's a couple that I marked because even though they're Under the cutoff, I'm sure that Roger McKnight donated $33 in memory of Keith L. Nutt.
Although, I hope that's not a joke.
Could be.
John Train.
For Ed Train, the greatest dad of all time.
Love from John from Tucumacari, New Mexico.

Happy Father's Day to my dad.

He hit me in the mouth six years ago, and I've been listening ever since, Garrett, in Murrieta, California.
And I think we've satisfied all of the dedications.
There's one last one.
Oh, there is?
Okay.
From William.
I'll leave his last name out, but I'll say, J.S., rest in peace.
Love you.
And then we have one note, which I'm not sure if this is a make good.
Or if it came in...
It is for a damehood.
This is from Sir Mark.
In honor of my sizzling hot better house 50th birthday today, I'd like to bestow the title of dame on Tracy Goodband and welcome her to the Knights and Dames of the Roundtable.
It's a similar story of myself wandering around the house, listening to no agenda on the phone, and Tracy rolling her eyes until she muttered those immortal words.
Where are the boys?
Since then, we've spent the last year during the pandemic of unknown origin commuting back and forth from work listening to the best podcast in the universe with ever-shrinking amygdalas.
Thank you for keeping us both sane.
May she request copious bottles of Malbec and Yorkshire puddings with gravy.
At the round table.
And the following...
Okay, well...
I think we're a little beyond the jingles.
And we played Sharpton.
And John did a spooky donate.
So I think we got most of that.
Sir Mark of Menworth Hill.
And she is on the list.
And thank you very much for your courage.
And thank everybody.
Especially because you thanked all...
You did it for the dads.
You did it for the dads.
That's really worth something.
I feel good as a dad after this episode.
It's a good episode.
Yeah, it's good.
If you'd like to feel good, and it is totally possible, then all you have to do is follow the example of many before you for the value-for-value model, how we work.
We have no corporate money, no advertisements.
What we do is we produce the show with you, so you support us with your time, your talent, your treasure.

T-t-t-t-t-title changes.
Turn and face the slate.
Got changes.
Don't want to be a douchebag.
Nope, no douchebags here, just producers who are already members of the roundtable who are upping their titles, going, moving up the ranks in our peerage with an additional $1,000 accumulation.
Thank you so much.
Sir Dan the Man, you are now a Baronet.
Sir Karras, Baron of Greater Boston, becomes a Viscount.
And Knight of the River Mark becomes Knight of Monarch Dunes.
All of you, thank you very much for supporting the No Agenda show.
Now we've got a couple of dames and knights, so we will need appropriate bladage on hand.
There you go.
Get that other one, too.
We've got a lot of people.
I can do both hands.
Here you go.
Okay.
I've got one.
I'm holding two up.
One is a little shorter than the other.

Our guests have some words to say.
In the morning, douchebags.

Oh, I'm good as well.
Thank you.
First time here, Eddie and Ernie, and we're enjoying it and having a great time.
We have a report from the No Agenda Local 512 meetup, which I could not attend due to packing duties.
But a lot of people showed up.
I think they had 20 to see.
Today's meetup says Sir Scott, Baron Scott.
Today's meetup started slow with only...
Six producers in the first hour, but finished with over 22 when he posted a picture of it on noagendasocial.com.
Great conversation, no triggering ensued, of course not.
And Sir Scott, thank you for organizing as always.
Now we go to Ontario, Canada.
All right, it's Sir Rick of the Kawarthas up here in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada.
We got booted out of the pub, we did our compliance court to a table, and hey, we survived.
Hey, it's Baron Chris of the Kawarthas Highlands, Night of the Rare Encounter.
Stay safe, John.
Hey, it's Paul Kanabi here, and yeah, I'd just like to say, hey John, stay safe.
Hey, it's Bishop, and I just wanted to say, hey Tacos.
Also, DC Girl, can I have my Sibian back?
Thanks.
Hey, Rich Watson here.
First meet up, happy to be with some open-minded people.
I am no longer a douchebag, as of today's show, so...
Hey, Mark out of Hamilton, Ontario.
I'm really looking forward to this chest feeding thing that's getting popular these days.
And yeah, I'm not joking.
America, please save us immediately.
Carolyn, host of Hog Story with Fletcher.
In the morning, John and Adam, love you.
It's Joe Connor.
Hi there, this is Val, soon to be a night and in the morning.
In the morning, I'm Liz Lawson, an expat reporting from the front lines of Scandinavia.
Oh, that sounds so good.
I've got past blue ribbon on my mind.
Good morning!
I've got to say, for citizens who are locked down like dogs, they're having a pretty good time there in Scandinavia.
Thank you very much.

Have a look at noagendameetups.com.
It truly is a phenomenon that people have the production of this show in common, and it bonds us in an incredible way.
And you only know what it is when you've visited one of these.
And it's good to bring newbies to.
You know, if your partner isn't quite on board yet, hasn't spoken those, hasn't uttered those words, what do the boys think?
Where are the boys?
You know, move a little closer.
Go to a meetup.
Noagendameetups.com.
If you can't find one near you, why don't you start one yourself?
It's easy and it's like a potty.
Sometimes you want to go hang out with all the nights and days.
You want to be where you want me.
Triggered on hell's flame.
You want to be where everybody feels the same.
It's like a party.
Isos?
Oh, yes.
I have quite a few.
I don't think any of them are outstanding, but I think they're interesting.
Shall I play mine first, then, since you probably have a better one?
Yeah, play yours first, and I'll play mine.
Okay, so I have this one.
People are revolting.
And I have this one.
How could I be the President of the United States of America?
Well, I like the second one.
It's a little long.
Let's try this one.
Cooking.
Cooking your feelings.
I like that one, actually.
That's not too bad.
Cooking your feelings.
How about try fantastic?
Fantastic!
That's pretty good, too.
You're bringing it today.
Then let's go with suck.
Hold on.
Suck.
That's how much they suck.
That might even be the best one yet, yes?
Yeah, I don't think it's a good way to end the show, though.
Okay.
Try uh-oh.
Well, we could do the uh-oh in a combo with something else, possibly.
Well, the one you think fantastic was good.
I think that I really would like to use the how my president...
In combination with suck, maybe?
Ooh, okay, let's see.
Ooh, suck.
Okay, this might be fun.
How could I be the president of the United States of America?
That's how much they suck.
It's pretty long together, but I'm game.
I'm game.
Let's do it.
Yeah, what the heck?
It's a Sunday.
We're going crazy.
Throw your panties on the stage.
Do what you want.
Alright, I have maybe a clip.
Yeah, to get us out, to take us home, to wrap it all up.
Yes, I want to get this one out of the way.
I hate to pull clips off, but Ronnie Jackson, you're the...
Troublemaking congressman.
Has a good little tale to tell.
Unfortunately, he told on Hannity.
Oh, is he in there?
Is he in this recording?
I tried to cut him out, but I thought his little...
At least the end of his intro was probably needed to round out the clip.
So let's play this clip, and here we go.
Do you suspect what many Americans suspect?
That he's cognitively weak and in decline?
Absolutely, Sean.
You know, after this most recent embarrassing performance overseas, I thought it was time to come out.
We can't sit on this any longer.
I've been saying this for a year and a half, Sean.
I took care of three presidents over 15 years in the White House, including being the physician of the president for both Barack Obama and Donald J. Trump.
And, you know, I know what the rigors of this job are, both physically and cognitively.
It's demanding.
And after this performance, and we've been seeing this for a year and a half now, I've been saying that Joe Biden is not, he's not physically or cognitively fit to be our president right now.
And I just think that he's not inspiring confidence in the American people.
He's not inspiring confidence in our allies overseas.
And more importantly, he's sending the wrong message to our adversaries overseas.
This is a dangerous situation right now.
I feel like we really need to know what's going on, Sean.
I think if you remember the mainstream media and the far left and the Democrats, they were relentless in their pursuit of me when I was taking care of President Trump, just demanding that he have a cognitive test, that he have a physical exam that included a cognitive test.
They said that every president should have that.
It should be the new standard, that we should know that our commander-in-chief and our head of state is capable of leading the nation.
And so we did.
We submitted to that.
President Trump, as you mentioned, he hit a perfect score on his cognitive test, an outstanding performance.
And I'm just saying now, I'm saying that is the new standard.
The precedent has been set, and I'm asking Joe Biden and his medical team to get out there and to get this physical exam done, get this cognitive testing done, and get the results back to the American people.
We need to know that we can trust our president, and we need to know that he's in charge of what's going on, and that someone else is not pulling the strings from behind the scenes, because that's what it looks like is happening right now.
Wow.
I just think it's so funny because this is the Democrats' idea while Trump was in office and they said all presidents should have tested.
Well, now that she's on the other foot, what happens?
That's called whataboutism, man.
And it's illegal in progressive circles, baby.
You should not be doing that.
We are well over time here today.
But it has been a great dadication episode.
Dads and moms have done a great job during the plandemic.
Whatever it is.
And we thank all dads for their courage.
Whatever it is.
Whatever we're going through.
And we'll continue to be on the lookout for you.
And I can't wait.
I'm going to start my hate clipping right after the show.
It's going to be fun.
Hate clipping.
Yes, you should hate clip something yourself, too.
It'll be fun.

You have meddled with the primal forces of nature, Mr. Beale.
I want you to get up right now.
I want you to get mad.
Get up.
Bye.

I want you to get mad.
We sit watching our TVs while some local newscaster tells us that today we had 15 homicides and 63 violent crimes.
As if that's the way it's supposed to be.
We know things are bad, worse than bad.
I want all of you to get up out of your chairs.
I want you to get mad.
We sit in the house and slowly the world we're living in is getting smaller and all we say is, please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms.
Let me have my toaster and my TV and my steel-belted radios and I won't say anything.
Just leave us alone.
Well, I'm not going to leave you alone.
I want you to get mad.
I don't want you to protest.
I don't want you to ride.
I don't want you to write to your congressman because I wouldn't know what to tell you to write.
I don't know what to do about the depression and the inflation and the Russians and the crime in the street.
All I know is that first, you've got to get mad.
You've got to say, I'm a human being.
God damn it.
My life has value.
I want you to get up right now.
I want all of you to get up out of your chairs.
I want you to get up right now.
Get up.
I want all of you to get up out of your chairs.
I want you to get mad.
But first, you've got to get mad.
You've got to say, I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not dieting!
Best podcast in the universe!
Adios, mofo.
