These papers look very good.
Adam Curry, John C. Devorak.
It's Thursday, August 19th, 2021.
This is your award-winning Kimbo Nation Media assassination episode 1374.
This is no agenda.
With my jam-free job and broadcasting live from the heart of Texas Hill Country, FEMA region number six in the morning, everybody.
I'm Adam Curry.
And from northern Silicon Valley, where we say, screw your freedom and screw your privacy.
I'm John C. DeVore.
It's Craig Vaughn and Buzzkill in the morning.
Well, it's California.
Isn't that the state's slogan?
Screw your freedom, screw your privacy.
Yeah, it is.
Actually, not officially.
They're working on it.
There's a bill right now to pass.
I'll bet.
I keep reviewing those bills, the ones that are on the RSS feed for the Library of Congress, and they come through with just the titles without the text when they're first submitted.
There's some crazy stuff in there.
Like, mandates for everybody, every American.
And for other purposes.
It's really quite crazy.
Quite crazy.
And amidst all of that, we have a scorpion invasion here in the hills.
Woo!
This is not cool.
Motorcycle meetup, is that what you're telling me?
The scorpion club out of New York?
Yeah, yeah.
No, the actual, you know, the ones with the pincers and the evil-looking tail.
And really, they're not even that...
It's not dangerous at all, but something is...
There are some that are more dangerous than others.
Yes, yeah, yeah, but not the ones here.
It's like a bee sting.
Do you have to shake your boots out when you get up in the morning?
Yeah.
Oh, well, okay, so this was an unexpected surprise for the keeper.
She is not...
A Florida girl.
Well, you know, I have to say...
For Chicago, worse.
Yesterday...
Oh, it's a lightning bug.
How pretty.
Well, she almost stepped on one of her bare feet in the bedroom.
Then there was...
And these are all kind of...
Because we have pest control, these are kind of on their last legs if they get through.
But there was one in the bathroom with no outdoor connecting wall.
So how he got in there, I don't know.
And he was still fast.
He was...
Oh, and by the way...
I didn't know they were fast at all.
I thought they just ambled.
Oh, no, no.
I mean, easy enough to catch.
No problem.
What I did learn is the Dawn trick does not work on scorpions.
You know, the one we use for wasps and everything else and for red ants.
Scorpions, they don't care.
I think they've seen worse.
It's a moment to wash up.
Yes.
Anyway, so it's fun.
I'll be going to the Netherlands on Monday for a week for Christina's birthday.
First time I've seen her in 18 months.
And Tina will be here alone with the Scorpions.
And she's very happy about that, as you can imagine.
So, are you going to take a couple of scorpions with you?
No.
No.
We've had the weird weather.
That's part of it.
But, you know, we've seen four now.
That's a little much.
So, I don't know if we're under attack.
Might be.
If you see four, that means there's 40.
She's listening.
Okay.
Alright, it is the first Thursday of the week.
You know what that means, everybody.
It's time for 3x3.
Experiment by JCD. Comparing stories from ABC, CBS, and NBC. The never-ending 3x3.
That's right, he watches the morning news so you don't have to.
John, what did you catch today on the Big 3 Networks for your 3x3?
Well, a couple of things that are noteworthy.
And one of them is getting a little tiresome.
Because I turn it on, and boom!
I go to ABC, and again, I know it sounds like a joke, but I'm not kidding.
You're not going to tell me it's the shopping channel again.
You know, I turn to it, because I'm flipping around, I turn to it, and oh my god, no one's going to believe this.
What were they selling today?
Oh, this was the summer grab bag on Steals and Deals.
Oh, holy crap!
I missed something.
I can't believe I wasn't up.
So we have mandates, we have booster shots, we have Afghanistan, but it's Grab Bag Thursday on ABC. It seems to be grab bag every day.
And so they also are selling besides the grab bag, and they have these different people coming on.
And everything's 50% off, by the way, so it's probably, you know.
Yeah, it's probably some good deals, yes.
There might be.
They have mattresses, too.
When I saw the mattress, I said, oh, no.
These guys have resorted to podcasting level of advertising.
Yeah.
And then they mention that at the very end as they wrapped the segment before they went to the weather...
Wait a minute, can I ask you a question?
Can you call in on their shopping show?
No, they have a...
Studio audience?
They have a barcode thing.
What do they call it?
Yeah, QR code.
QR code on the screen.
But you can't call in and talk about how excited you are about that item?
Not yet.
Not yet.
That's coming.
Because I want you to be calling in.
Amen!
So, and then they mention at the end that ABC has partnered with the various advertisers.
Oh, so they do disclaimers, okay.
Well, it's not much of a disclaimer the way they do it, believe me.
No one would notice.
They think they're doing you a favor.
Alright, that's ABC. Who do we have next?
So now again, like I said, and all I do is keep proving this every time I do this segment, is that NBC's now trying to be like the old ABC Good Morning America, which was always about celebrity.
And so there was Hoda with Hugh Jackson.
Oh, no.
And she's going on and on about what a great guy he is.
And does Hugh have a new movie out?
I don't know.
Maybe.
I don't care.
Well, it's important to know who's promoting who.
Well, somebody's promoting somebody.
So Hugh Jackson was...
Or Jackman.
Jackman?
Jackman.
Jackson.
Jackson or Jackman?
Hugh Jackson.
Jackman.
The Aussie.
Oh, Jackman.
That's because Oprah loves Hugh Jackman.
Yeah.
Well, Hugh Jackman was on.
And then they went on and they were segmenting to...
Reminiscence.
That's the title of it.
Reminiscence.
It's new.
It's got a new movie.
I'm going to pack them in.
All right.
So then they went on with...
Things to buy for school for the kids.
So they do have a little sales segment in here too.
Oh, cool.
Whatever ABC does, NBC copies.
They went on with things to buy for school and they go on with school fashions for your 8th grader.
And the theme was, the 90s are back.
What happened?
I thought we were bringing back the 80s.
The 80s with the shoulder pads.
I thought that was coming back.
They said the 90s.
They also said shoulder pads, but they said the 90s shoulder pads.
Yeah, they're different.
They're very different.
Oh, please.
It's a very different kind of pad, man.
Oh, yeah.
And so then CBS actually had an, again, this is just, it's amazing.
Maybe it's just the hours that I look at this where I see this particular formula as the same block.
Well, what is the hour that you look?
I look at about 8.15 in the morning Pacific time.
Now, 8.15 is high traffic, high news.
I mean, they should be doing news, not fodder.
CBS does news.
Okay.
They did a couple different things.
The one that was going on, though, when I flipped to it, was the black woman there who's another Oprah friend.
I can't remember her name.
Sure.
She is in a conversation with, literally a conversation with Mark Zuckerberg.
But when you tune it on, it's like two cartoons talking to each other, literally cartoons.
And then they cut to the two of them, and they're wearing this stupid, that thing on their face, the Oculus.
Oculus Prime!
They're using the Oculus.
Oh, wait, were they going into the metaverse?
Yes.
And the metaverse is pretty boring, by the way, the way it was done.
So they're in this metaverse talking to each other at a table with really poorly drawn cartoons.
I mean, we have people that are much better.
I mean, did they have any sex objects in their metaverse?
Because that's what Second Life was all about.
Hey, come over here.
I've got some sex balls.
And then you sit on the sex ball and then, boing, you're dressed in assless chaps.
I never knew.
I guess that wasn't featured on the metaverse.
So they're going on about it, and then Zuckerberg was actually pretty talkative.
Was he in studio, or was it on location?
No, no, it was someplace.
It was remote.
He was not in studio.
Hawaii.
It could be.
And then that was about it.
And then they talked and he acted for a while.
So was there anything on mandatory vaccinations, anything in Afghanistan, or just back to business as usual?
I'm sure those segments are on there.
I just didn't catch them.
Hmm.
Interesting.
You would think that they would take every available bit of airtime to promote their agendas.
Well, the agenda was best promoted, in my opinion, by a clip that I have.
Uh...
I also want to tease the fact that I had my second cataract operation.
Yeah, well let's play some clips and then let's talk about the operation.
It's pretty...
Well shoot, let's do it now.
I'll tell you why.
I'm glad you bring this up.
No, it's important.
I think I may be developing a cataract.
Oh, if you are, I'm going to tell you some things you need to know.
Okay, so I didn't even know you were scheduled for another procedure.
You didn't tell your family.
I don't think people should waste their psychic energy worrying about me.
So when was this?
It was Monday.
Oh my goodness.
You didn't even tell me off air, like, hey, you know, I'm going to get this done tomorrow.
I mean, I'm not just everybody.
That's true.
I could have told you.
So, but I didn't.
I'm sorry I didn't.
That's okay.
But, so I go in, but this one here is going to be a little more complicated because this cataract got out of control.
This is the other eye?
This is the other eye?
The right eye, yeah.
Uh-huh, yeah.
Now, what turns out is that I have a condition that was undiagnosed until I got my first cataract operation.
A comorbidity?
Well, it was a condition called Fuchs dystrophy.
Mm-hmm.
Now, I'm glad I didn't do too much research into it because it would have freaked me out.
Fuchs dystrophy, which allows your cornea to easily get inflamed, and it got inflamed after my first operation.
And the doctor was kind of freaked out about it and figured out what it was, and then it calms down after a while.
Same thing happened this time.
But now he's expecting it.
It takes about three weeks for the swelling to go down.
Wow.
I can see now, but I won't be able to see 2010 for a little while.
Now, does ivermectin help with this at all, with fuchs?
No.
Okay.
Tylenol.
Okay.
And steroids.
So you have one eye is basically closed from this procedure now?
No, it's not.
It's fine.
It's better than it was.
Oh, okay.
But it's still blurry.
It's blurry, but before, when I had the cataract in the right eye, I basically couldn't see out of the right eye.
But it got really big, and it turns out, and this is what people need to know, if you've got a cataract developing, you should have those lenses removed immediately.
Okay.
And I can tell you the whole gory story if you want to hear it.
Which is shorter?
They're all long.
They're all boring.
Can you do gory short?
Yeah.
The cataract, when it starts to grow, it actually grows in size.
And this I did not know.
And so you have to be careful because when they get really big, they're hard to...
You have to...
Okay.
Here's how it works.
They make a decision in your eye and then they pull out the lens and put in a new lens.
Oh, wait.
They have to make the incision small because they don't want to wreck your eye.
So they make a small incision so instead they can't pull the lens out.
It's too big.
So they crack the lens into two or three pieces.
Oh, no.
Yeah.
Oh, shit.
This will gross everybody.
It grosses everybody out.
Yeah.
And so they pull the lens pieces out.
So my cataract got in such bad shape that I had a whole team of people in there, which I said, what are all these people?
They were worried sick they couldn't crack this thing.
They cracked it, luckily.
Shit.
They cracked this thing, and it cracked perfectly right down the middle so they could get it out, but it was a miracle.
In the process, because of my Fuke syndrome and the giant cataract, they couldn't get the pupil open wide enough.
Huh.
So they put some kind of a crazy micro device onto my eyeball and squoze open the iris.
I'm getting queasy!
Yeah.
And so they forced the iris open big enough so they could cut into the eyeball and get that damn thing out of there.
And did this hurt?
Did you feel anything?
Yeah!
Oh shit!
Because I remember the first operation, it was like smooth as glass.
It was like the laser comes in, you can hear the laser going, the thing comes out, and then the other one goes back in, and it's done.
You're done, and there's like three or four people in the room.
This time, there's like seven people in the room, and everybody's worried sick.
I don't know anything about this.
And they have that look on their face, and that's not making you feel very confident.
You're not seeing anybody's face.
Okay.
And you can't see anything.
Now, when they do this, do you smell the burning eyeball?
No.
Oh, okay.
Just so you know.
All right.
But what I learned, and what people need to know, is that don't let a cataract go too long.
Don't just, oh, you can get, well, you can still see, but yeah, yeah, yeah.
No.
Get it out.
Go to the ophthalmologist.
Tell them you want to get it out sooner than later.
Okay, all right.
So how do I know if I have a developing cataract?
The optometrist will tell you.
Okay.
It's not like sometimes my eye is fuzzy in the morning?
Ooh, sounds a little bit like fuchs.
You're a dick.
That's one of the symptoms.
No, no, no, no.
I refuse to have fuchs.
I refuse.
Wow, well I'm glad you're okay.
I guess, I mean, you could have also just started the show off by saying, hey, can you read the donations?
I mean, you didn't have to go through this whole thing.
You could have just made it easy on yourself.
But I will say this.
I did learn a couple of things.
And the worst part, when I was reading about fugues, a lot of times when you have it, you not only have to have the cataract removed, but you have to have a corneal transplant at the same time.
And I don't even know what that means.
Oh, man.
Fugues your freedom.
Anyway.
Well, I'm glad you're okay.
And it was successful.
So the crack is done.
Everything's good.
Everyone's happy.
You're going to live.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, that's good.
And I'm glad that they didn't...
Or did they at all ask you if you were vaccinated?
If you were...
Oh, okay.
Part two.
Planning on taking the vaccine into your life?
So they...
And here's the reason I want to...
I'll tell this part of the story.
I do have a clip of what's going on up in Washington.
And this could happen to anybody.
Where's my clip list?
Jason Rance?
Yeah, play the Jason Rance thing so we know what's going on around the country.
Last week we introduced you to a man named Derek Kovic, 41 years old, dealing with liver issues his entire life.
And he was on the transplant list to get a liver at UW Medicine, but he was told that in order to move forward with the transplant surgery, he would have to be COVID vaccinated.
He did not want to be COVID vaccinated and as a result they said well then you're not going to be able to just easily move forward here and he's been put in a really tough spot UW Medicine tells me that there's no specific policy that will deny folks a transplant surgery on the basis of their COVID status instead it's left up to the recommendations and requirements of the doctors since then I've heard from a number of patients Who have indicated to me that they have run into the same exact issue.
In the case of my next guest, Sam from Monroe, he was taken off the list for a heart transplant back in June over this very issue.
And he joins me now.
Sam, welcome to the show.
Thanks for having me, Jason.
So take us through, if you could, how did you get to the point where they denied you?
When did you find out?
Take us into the timeline.
Well, in May, I had an appointment with the cardiologist.
The cardiologist called me, and we had a discussion, and he informed me that, well, you know you're going to have to get a vaccination in order to get a transplant.
And I says, well, that's news to me, and nobody's ever told me that before.
And he says, yeah, that's our policy.
And he says, well, that's a problem, because I'm not getting the vaccination.
I just refuse to do it, and I'm not going to do it.
And so I got a call back saying that I would be taken off the list and put on an inactive list.
And a few days later, I received a letter saying that I was no longer on the inactive list.
I was not on a list at all.
Yeah, this is your medical freedom.
In fact, I'm surprised with how incredibly jam-packed the hospitals are that this elective surgery was even allowed to take place that you had.
Well, this is an eye center.
Okay, all right.
But I did grill the different people about who was, you know, who were they busy?
Were they out of staff?
So I asked this one.
The anesthesiologist comes in because they give you a drip or something to knock you down a little bit.
And, oh, yeah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
He goes on.
Oh, yeah, a big shortage.
Everything's bad.
Everything's horrible.
And so then the nurse who's still there, he leaves and she says, that's bullshit.
Yeah.
She says there's plenty of staffing, but everyone's overworked, and they're pissed off, and they're mad because they're doing too much.
They're working them to death, and everyone's getting burned out.
Now, before I had the operation, I was asked, make sure to check in with your vaccine card, the girl at the ophthalmologist.
And I said, I was thinking, I'm just phoning one up.
No, no, I don't have one.
Oh, well, then she said, well, then you're going to have to get tested.
So I said, that's good.
So I go through the process.
I had to have an appointment.
And here we go.
This is another story.
This will be my last one.
So I go over to some quick care health thing from Sutter Health.
I'm in the office, standing in line.
I'm in there waiting to check in to get my COVID test.
And I figure, well, you know, they're going to just say, okay, go over to room three.
They're testing to kick you out of there.
No, no, no.
I can't do that.
That's not theater.
So everyone's around.
I'm standing with my mask on the whole thing.
And they say...
Oh, get back to your car.
We'll call you.
You infected human resource.
Go away.
So they sent me back to the car.
And so they said, I get a phone call.
Like they had my cell with me, which was rare.
Wow, indeed.
Yeah.
And so they called.
Hello?
And yeah.
And they asked me a bunch of questions, which they just asked me the same questions at the desk.
You have a fever?
Do you, do you're throwing up?
Or do you have a cough?
You know, this is a whole round of questions that just try to trick you.
And so, yeah.
So I go back and I guess, okay, I'm going to be, you look over, there's a couple of big giant tents.
It's outside.
And there's lane one and lane two, and I'm thinking, you know, I'm thinking, because I just saw in the news, the lines to these testing facilities are miles long!
But no.
There's nobody, by the way.
No.
Nobody.
So I drive over there, and I'm driving, and I finally find it.
This is a tent.
It's lane one.
Nobody's there.
Lane one.
Nobody's there.
Okay, so I back up, and I go around.
Oh, there's lane two.
Okay, there's lane two.
So I drive into lane two.
Guy comes out.
I swear to God, he's in a hazmat suit.
With tongs.
With tongs.
An extender.
No, he doesn't have the tongs.
He's got the triple mask.
He's got the shield.
Like I'm going to throw up at him or something.
And then he's got those blue nitrile gloves, of course.
And so then he dips this swab into my right and then the left.
He does both nozzles and nostrils, sorry.
And then he says, okay, and he says, you can't.
Don't go out.
Don't see anybody.
Don't go anywhere.
Don't do anything for the next 48 hours before you go in for your eye surgery.
Don't do this.
Don't do that.
Then he gives me a sheet.
That tells me all these things I'm not supposed to do for the next 48 hours.
Self-quarantine, blah, blah, blah.
And I'm thinking, what a crock of shit.
And so then I go home.
Yeah, I have to do one for my flight to the Netherlands.
So because it takes one to two days, my flight's Monday.
I'm doing one Saturday.
Hopefully I have that Monday, but it will be probably close to 48 hours old.
There's all kinds of weird restrictions.
So by the time I arrive, who knows?
So I'm also doing one on Sunday, right after the show.
I have to boogie out.
You know, this is what they're doing.
It's like, make it difficult so that you just get the vaccine.
And...
They are really promoting this vaccine and they're serious about it and they want to let you know, informed consent before you take it.
Jen Psaki, White House spokesperson, she is always on point.
About why it's important to get vaccinated, why these vaccines are safe, why they can still kill you even if you are under the age of 27.
We need to be clear and direct about our messaging.
One of the better ones yet, right?
Wow!
That's the best one this month.
They can still kill you.
Wow.
Yeah.
Truth wants to come out.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Truth wants to come out.
So the thing, I mean, it was a little bit of a, it was irksome about the testing and the rest, but the, anyway, so I should be 20-20 vision in both eyeballs in about three weeks.
I want to just talk about, I'm happy to hear that.
Just going back briefly to what you said about the nurses, because I've really, besides people sending clips, and it's always appreciated, and a large amount of email coming in in the past couple of days, and the two big batches fall into two categories.
One...
Is healthcare and other services such as police, EMTs, and what's going on with them.
And of course the bogus hospitals are overflowing.
It's just not true.
But also mandates.
And this is...
This is...
For every three emails, there's one that goes something like this.
This is from Sir Null Void.
In the morning, gents, while my time has come, my company will make the following policy active on September 30th.
Vax proof required with the actual Vax card.
If no Vax, then two times a week testing.
He says, work from home option no longer available.
I read this notice, closed my laptop, walked out the door, got home, called my manager to state that if this policy stands, my last day is on September 30th.
Updating my resume is my main job now, then searching for a rational company to work for.
I have 20 years experience developing hardware for this medical device company.
And of course, he says, if you have any suggestions for me or job opportunities, let me know.
And I Go to noagendasocial.com or post and I'll boost it there.
But it's all these types of notes.
And none of them is really unique.
It's all the same.
And there's just no ifs, ands, or buts, vaccine, or you're fired.
You have no place to work in our organization.
Yeah.
And, you know, so, I mean, let's see what we have.
Going back to what you said, an Alabama doctor refusing to treat unvaccinated patients.
Get a shot, he says.
I can't watch you die.
CES this year, they just announced only vaccinated people can attend the show.
Well, I guess I won't be going.
And, you know, that'll be the Game Developers Conference, E3. They're going to do that, too.
All of it.
Every single big conference will be vaccine only.
Screw your freedoms.
Screw your freedoms, yes.
And a couple of producers picked up on what we were talking about.
If everyone in healthcare is vaccinated, what happens if something's wrong with the shot?
Like on airlines, the pilot and the co-pilot don't have the same meal.
So I'm getting notes from parents now saying, you know, thank you for saying that.
I'm going to get vaccinated.
My wife won't.
Someone has to be the pilot-co-pilot here.
Yeah, I agree.
But when you get down to that kind of stuff, wow, man.
That's harsh.
I've got to play this clip before we go on.
You have to have a pad and you have to start taking notes on this clip.
We played the clip from CNN last show about the doctor who comes on and I thought they were pushing back on the idea that the people who had COVID have natural immunity.
Oh yeah.
And this has been beaten up a lot by the experts, experts, people that are in the business of virology, medical, and the rest.
And the best immunity is natural immunity.
But if we go to CBS, we have a situation where I guess...
Pfizer would be the bad actor here.
Probably doesn't like this message going out there because it is screwing up.
Somebody admitted in one of the recent...
I didn't get a clip of it because it was on local news and I was just listening to it casually.
They said there's...
There was a question and answer about the booster.
Booster, booster, booster.
And this woman said, well, is there any difference between this and the regular shot?
She said, well, they've got a lot of excess shots, so no, it's just the third shot.
Thank you so much for saying this.
This was my immediate conclusion.
This push for the third shot for the booster is because these things are expiring at the end of this month.
Yeah.
And people will think we're crazy when they say that, but no!
So let's listen to this.
This is a clip.
This is the COVID staged...
I said it says CBS, but it says CBS. This is a staged report.
And I even wonder whether there's actors involved.
Wait, wait.
And I want you to listen to it and listen for the memes.
This is what I wrote about in the newsletter.
Every meme they're trying to push...
Is in this report.
And these are the memes that you're going to be hearing all over the place.
And you can kind of pick them up.
I think there's about five in here that are...
I could ring the bell, but I'm not going to.
I'll just mention them afterwards.
In addition to the people who got Pfizer and Moderna being told they need to get a booster, we expect that federal officials will say if you got that one dose of the J&J vaccine, you need a booster too.
If the FDA gives the green light, the boosters could begin as early as next month.
Healthcare workers and nursing home residents will be first in line, followed by the elderly and then the general population.
I think it's helpful that people can try to stick with what they started with.
So if you started with Pfizer, Get the third immunization with Pfizer and similarly with Moderna.
The case for boosters comes after new studies which include recent data from Israel.
Among people 60 and older who received the Pfizer vaccine, the risk of infection was 54% higher among those vaccinated in the winter compared to the spring.
We released those vaccines when we had to get people fully immunized in a hurry, and we did it.
In terms of durability and length of protection, doing spacing vaccines three to four weeks apart will often not be adequate for long-term durability and hence the need for the boost.
Hospitals continue to fill up, mostly with people who are unvaccinated.
Here at Baton Rouge in Louisiana, they had one ICU, but they opened up eight more just for COVID patients.
Jeffrey Oakes and his wife Carrie are in the ICU with COVID-19 together.
It's their second time contracting the virus.
They thought they had natural immunity after the first time, and so they waited to get vaccinated.
The Delta variant is really, really nasty.
And anyone who thinks that they can just come through this, they're wrong.
Dr.
Chris Thomas is their physician.
We have two pandemics.
We have a pandemic of a Delta virus that's ravaging our community, and we have a pandemic of misinformation.
I'm just frustrated that we've gotten to the point where we allow misinformation to equal medical science.
They're not the same.
Louisiana set a record today.
They have more COVID hospitalizations than at any other point in the pandemic.
The last time they set that record was yesterday.
Today, Louisiana's governor said, we are rapidly approaching a point where we're going to have a major failure of our health care delivery system.
David Begna with that warning tonight.
Thank you, David.
Exactly what we predicted.
Failure of the health care system.
So let's look at some of the bull crap in this report.
First of all, booster, booster, booster.
Booster, booster, booster.
J&J, you're going to need another shot.
Don't mix and match.
She slipped that in there, and that has never been reported by anybody.
In fact, they're still, what I read is, because I wanted to know too, they're still waiting on the clinical trial data to see if you need a second shot of J&J. But it seems clear they're not going to stay behind in this race to the finish to get all the vaccines out before they expire.
The government's picking up the bill for the shot.
But I think the government already prepaid that.
Yeah, I think so too.
Yeah, so I'm not sure if there's a real benefit to pushing it, but...
So they went on, they had the thing about the people had this COVID twice.
Yeah, with natural immunity.
They had natural immunity from having it once, supposedly.
Supposedly, they may have had the flu, they may have had a bad cold, who knows.
But no, they had COVID twice, and they got the second time before they could get the vaccination, because they should get the vaccination after you catch the disease.
So that is unbelievable to me.
I think it's egregious.
Then they said, and then they had the woman say, even though this segment was, they had to be beside themselves because this segment, the CIA must have been pissed.
And Pfizer.
If you heard it, the sound was so bad.
Yeah.
It was just poorly produced.
It was a very poorly produced segment.
Maybe they did it on purpose, but then the woman comes on.
She says, oh, this Delta is nasty.
It's worse, I guess, worse than the first time they had.
They must have had the original.
And now the Delta is the worst.
Don't believe anything they tell you.
It's terrible.
And then the guy comes in with the kicker of the biggest pandemic.
It's a pandemic of misinformation.
How is this allowed?
That report to me is one of the sickest things CBS has ever done.
Oh, we might be able to top it.
Well, I'm sure we can.
That's the joke of it.
Well, let me get back to the end.
We said the very end there about the health or the woman, the healthcare system is collapsing.
This is what I... What I think is happening, I think is quite intentional.
And my understanding is they had all the healthcare workers furloughed last year.
And let me read you an email from one of our producers regarding nursing staffing.
And I have nurses in very high regard.
I think they are, you know, the hospitalists may walk around with the title, but I think the nurses are the ones that keep you alive in the hospital.
They're your real contact.
So many people, she says, have quit in the last year.
They've been giving us incentive pay to pick up shifts for months.
30% of our staff is refusing the vaccine, so we shall see what happens come October 1st.
I also see large signing bonuses advertised, up to $20,000 in states that have mandated the vaccine for workers.
You think there's a problem getting people to take this thing?
And the question, by the way, and I will bring this up, not to interrupt, but Tucker does one of the better jobs on the mainstream, as it were.
He brings up this exact point, and he says, why isn't anybody...
Asking what the women, and these were a woman on, one of the nurses on, and she says, you can answer me that, but I'd like to ask the question, whatever happened to the flu?
She says.
Yeah, I saw that.
You saw her?
She slipped that right in.
Yeah, whatever happened to the flu?
She slipstreamed it in.
What happened to the flu?
There's no flu.
No one has the flu anymore.
What's going on?
And so...
Yeah, nurses notice this stuff.
Nurses notice this stuff.
Well, let me continue.
Yes.
She continues, I don't know if it's possible for people to appreciate how horribly nurses have been treated in this last year.
First, people were furloughed because there were no patients.
No patients.
Then in the winter, we were full, which is normal in the winter.
They were deploying us to COVID units without training.
Then it came time for our annual bonus.
Keep in mind, and I've redacted the name of her organization, made record profits last year as a non-profit.
They talked a big game about how everyone would get a full bonus due to everyone's hard work, etc.
Well, the bonus came and it was prorated based on the number of sick calls you made.
So many people actually got less this year than the year before.
People were irate.
No shit.
Not to mention the constant hounding from management about our patient satisfaction scores.
One of the higher-ups actually came to me and said there was a patient complaint that the nurses looked tired and overworked.
She wanted me to think of a strategy to help hide the fact that we were understaffed to the patients.
The healthcare system is so broken, there's no art to medicine.
It's here's a pill, go away, next patient please.
Or my favorite diagnosis.
Your symptoms are in your head.
Here, take this antidepressant.
I think this is absolutely true.
I'm working on getting out because it is sucking my soul to keep working in this toxic environment surrounded by sheep.
I've listened to this show for years and I appreciate that it keeps me sane, but it kind of makes me feel like I'm surrounded by idiots.
Maybe I just need to leave California.
Well, there's your problem, obviously.
But this is also happening with cops.
From the synonymous cop, from the police officer's perspective, crime is absolutely out of control.
He's in San Francisco area.
Yeah, he's in the peninsula.
Yeah, he's my guy.
You can leave out the part about me.
No, I'm just going to read this first part.
I'm not going to read this whole note.
Come on, I know how to redact, man.
You don't have to read, get your license renewed!
No, I wasn't going to.
It's not even in the show.
I took it all out.
People don't care until they're victims and ask, why is this allowed to happen?
The news is not wrong.
With the skyrocketing rates of burglary, murder, rape, etc., it appears that cops in every major metropolitan are being pushed to their limits.
None of the outlets or politicians want to talk out the why.
The COVID regulations that are forcing the courts to issue warrants the amount of $0 or under $1,000 are still in full effect.
The cycle in California is as follows.
A person commits a crime, gets issued a citation because the legislature and courts believe most crimes are mistakes, and people don't do them again after being caught once.
A person is released from the area and to go on commit crimes elsewhere.
A person gets booked into jail for now doing a worse crime, but then gets released from jail within 24 hours because of the same regulations with a court date.
The person misses said court date then gets one of those bull crap warrants issued.
The person is caught by police with a warrant, is then cited, and released with a new court date because the jail refuses to take those little warrants due to the COVID regulations.
The system is broken!
Do we hear something here that is common?
And the same person is running around committing all kinds of crimes, being kicked around from county to county in the San Francisco Bay Area.
I heard from Bad Chad.
Our buddy, the EMT in Colorado, he says people are so insane and they just are violent towards...
They have sometimes...
There's people lying on the street.
They have to wait until the crowd disperses to help somebody because the crowds attack the police and the medical...
And this is not new, but he says it's intensified.
But here's a weird one.
He says...
I've seen a lot of people die from the vaccine.
He said, I've seen a lot of these.
Now, it may just be because I'm focusing more on that.
But he says what he thinks is happening to some degree is people get this.
And this isn't, I think this is probably true on a big scale.
People feel bad.
They get tested.
They, oh shit, I have COVID. They immediately go and get a vaccine.
And then they die.
Because you can't do that.
It's not a fix.
So now your body's already in the state, and then you inject it, and you put more spike proteins in.
That's interesting.
I wonder if anyone's documented this.
Well, they should be talking about it.
That's an important one.
Because the other cop, Animas cop, he also talks about the fact that he's seen a lot of people die from getting...
They get the shot, they take two steps and drop dead.
And it's noticeable to a policeman.
Because, you know, after you've been doing the job for a decade...
There's a rhythm to it.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
And then all of a sudden, the rhythm changes and people are dying left and right from something that doesn't make any sense.
And it seems to be coincidental with the shot.
Greetings, Adam and John.
Just left my doctor's office.
I'm not vaccinated.
I'm overweight.
And my doctor was pushing me hard to get the vaccine.
He's actually a concierge physician in Houston, so he gets paid a monthly fee by me for primary care.
I also have United through my company.
I think I've input on why the physicians are on vaccine advocacy.
As I was talking to him, I was pushing back on why he wanted me to have a vaccine and why I wasn't going to get one.
Largely, the same argument took place on both sides.
His wife is a nurse at Methodist Hospital in Houston.
What he says is that she and all the other doctors are sick of dealing with COVID. They're tired of it.
They are tired of masking.
They're tired of the threat to them.
I think the doctors are pushing the vaccine to get people out of the way because they're worn out with COVID and the illness.
I agree.
Of course, doctors are just as tired of this stuff.
And I think that when you look at the elective surgeries going away, Austin has now stopped elective surgeries.
I think doctors are getting hit in the pocketbook, too.
Isn't that a big moneymaker for these guys?
COVID fatigue.
There you go.
COVID fatigue.
Exactly.
Exactly.
All right, let me get back to those things you were talking about.
First of all, natural immunity.
They're blanketing all of the airwaves.
Now, this was interesting because it's the Hugh Hewitt show, which I think is in Boston, and he's definitely a right-wing guy.
Yeah, but he's a right-wing guy.
Old school.
Yes.
That means right-wing guy, Trump hater.
Yeah, he's not a Trump fan, exactly.
And he had on Fauci's boss, Dr.
Francis Collins, and the natural immunity came up.
A dear friend who was sick, did not get vaccinated, ended up in the hospital for six or seven days, and it was a very rough situation, had a candid conversation with me that he believes he is now safer than me, who got the two Pfizer vaccinations as soon as I could.
Is he right?
Yes.
It's a little hard to say for sure, but I think he's not right.
When you look at people who've gotten reinfected a second time, there's a higher risk of reinfection, especially with Delta, from people who got natural infection than people who got vaccinated.
So he should still go ahead and get vaccinated, even though he had the infection.
The evidence for that in a Kentucky study from a couple weeks ago is pretty compelling.
You boost your protection significantly if you had COVID, and then you get vaccinated on top of that.
I mean, he might eat those words one day.
No, he won't.
No, he won't.
I mean, this is a real problem.
I was going to say...
Just kind of bouncing off of that clip, which is a good one.
I was watching something where they're talking about the booster.
And it says the booster doesn't just give you...
It gives you 10x more protection.
I have the clips.
No, it's more than that.
You don't know what you're talking about.
It's much more than that.
Let me see.
I have a couple of booster clips here.
And it's interesting because on the previous show, and I was adamant about it, they were so clear saying, this is not a booster, not a booster, it's a third shot.
And that lasted for one day.
And then it turned back into booster.
I think someone made a mistake in the messaging somehow that got out.
Do you remember that clip?
It's like, it's not a booster.
I vaguely remember that clip, but it was short-lived.
Okay, listen to this.
Because the immunocompromised may not get the same level of protection from two doses of Pfizer or Moderna, they would be eligible for a third dose of either vaccine, though it's recommended they stay with the same manufacturer.
There was no decision for those given Johnson& Johnson because there's not enough data.
The CDC pointing to studies that show 40% of hospitalized breakthrough cases involve those with weak immune systems.
But the agency is not calling the third dose a booster.
It's very clear the CDC is labeling this a third dose as appropriate because the first two doses were not adequate enough to get the full potential of immunity.
Very different from a booster dose.
So, what is that about?
That's the CDC. It's very clear.
And that changed the next day.
Well, let's think about this for a second, since this is what we're supposed to do.
I would say that because of the variant, they need to make it sound...
Maybe it's just what she said there.
Maybe the problem is she said, well, it just wasn't sufficient, so you need a third dose.
That's not the message you want to hear, you want to hear.
No, the variant's horrible.
That means, if you say third dose, that means you were bullshitted.
Exactly.
So you were bullshitted into believing these two shots, which were painful.
We're going to do the trick, and now you get a third dose.
No, no, no.
That's different than, you get a booster, and the booster really protects you.
I think that's all it is.
Ugh.
So people like boosters better than they like third doses.
It's just the semantics.
I like it.
Well, I think that Pfizer put in a call and said, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, we can't.
You're calling it a booster.
That's what we're calling it.
So here is the Fouch Man.
Oh, no, wait.
First, we're going to go to Good Morning America.
This is the third hour earlier this week, so it's really the prime time for moms, stay-at-home moms and dads, I guess.
Here is Dr.
Amy Robach about the boosters.
Well, we are going to move on to some questions from viewers, Dr.
Jen.
First one, is it possible...
I'm sorry, Dr.
Jen.
...that we would need to receive more than one booster shot in a year?
Well, this is a loaded question because I assume the question...
Loaded?
Yeah, you've got to listen to how she answers this.
Okay, hold on.
How is a simple question...
A loaded question.
Oh, because it's a pre-set-up question to which she already has a funny answer.
She should have said it's a great question.
That would have been much better.
...need to receive more than one booster shot in a year.
Well, this is a loaded question because I assume the question is referring to the COVID-19 vaccine because, of course, yes, it's possible you could need multiple boosters for other vaccines, you know, the big umbrella of them.
Yeah, what do we need multiple boosters of?
Give me one vaccine that we need multiple boosters of.
Okay.
That's one.
Well, that's it.
That's it.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, she makes it sound like, oh, under the umbrella of vaccines.
I know.
It makes it sound like a million.
Listen to the words, people.
Because, of course, yes, it's possible you could need multiple boosters for other vaccines, you know, the big umbrella of them.
But...
This pandemic has shown us that we have to say anything is possible.
We're still collecting data.
One situation in which this could be imaginably necessary is if we had a new variant and all of a sudden we needed an additional booster just for that variant suddenly in a short period of time.
Is that possible?
Yes, but it's really not likely.
And right now, the available data doesn't suggest that we would need a booster every single year.
We might get a little more time in between those booster shots, but we're still learning.
We're still learning.
We're still learning.
It's also good.
We're still learning.
Wait for the salesman to come back from their Pfizer call.
Then we'll know more.
We'll know what our budget is for next year.
Well, here is the head of sales for Pfizer on CBS, Herr Fauci.
Today in what the president said was an attempt to stay ahead of the coronavirus.
My administration has been planning for this possibility in this scenario for months.
We purchased enough vaccine and vaccine supplies so that when your eight-month mark comes up, you'll be ready to get your vaccination free.
This booster strategy comes from data, which shows that the vaccines are losing efficacy over time.
The current strong protection against severe infection, hospitalization, and death could decrease in the months ahead, especially among those who are at higher risk or who were vaccinated earlier during the phases of our vaccination rollout.
The case for boosters is building.
Three studies published by the CDC today show that the effectiveness of vaccines against infection declined when the Delta variant began circulating.
One study examined the records of more than 10 million New Yorkers and found that vaccine effectiveness against infection in May was 92%, but then it dropped to 80% months later.
Yet at the same time, protection against hospitalization continued.
Dr.
Fauci, if the vaccines are diminishing over time, how many boosters do you think people are going to need?
I would doubt if we're going to need many boosters when we try to find out the breadth and the depth of the response by a booster.
It is really extraordinary.
It goes up by multiple fold, at least 20 to 30 fold.
So we don't anticipate that beyond this we're going to need anything else.
Wow, what a lie.
Somewhere I have a clip where someone says 40-fold.
I mean, they're just all over the place.
There's no proof of this.
No, no.
This is by the seat of their pants right now.
And it's just, we don't care.
We have to get everybody vaccinated.
You know, we went from, here's 100 bucks, here's a chance at a million dollars to shut up and take it.
No job for you.
This is the governor of Kentucky saying, This guy's a nice...
He's a card.
Andy Beshear.
And he's tugging the heartstrings.
You've got to do it.
You've got to participate in getting everybody vaxxed.
If you know of anyone over 65 that hadn't gotten their vaccine yet, please have that uncomfortable conversation.
John, it's time for us to have an uncomfortable conversation.
You're not going to like what I have to say.
That's where we are.
But I want you to know I love you.
And that's why I'm saying this.
At this point, folks aren't going to believe me.
They're not going to believe somebody else in government.
They might not believe their doctor, but you, their family member or their friend, saying that you love them and that you care about them and that you're willing to even lose that friendship and that relationship.
If it means having that hard conversation to get them vaccinated, folks, I need you to do it.
And they need you to do it, even if they don't know it quite yet.
And I got one of these.
I got one of these emails.
You got an email?
Yeah.
In fact, I forwarded it to you a couple days ago and I said, how do I even answer this?
Oh, I must have missed it.
Sorry.
Oh, well, it was a follow-up.
It was a follow-up from Guy Kawasaki.
Oh, my God.
Yes.
I'm going to look for it now.
Well, I'll read it to you.
So, he had a couple questions about something I said on the show, and I guess he is doing some editing to put it all together, and he wanted something about ratings that I had mentioned.
So, he's doing journalistic follow-up.
Good for him.
And then he says, got it, thanks for the explanation.
Did the tablet and socks get to you?
I'm like, I don't know, he sent me socks, apparently.
The tablet?
Yeah, he has like a writing device called the Remarkable Tablet.
It's for handwriting only.
It's his thing.
Oh, he also said, you know, I listened to the first pass edit.
Your radio presence is great.
Your storytelling master.
And then, so this all goes on.
And then he comes back, and this was on the 16th, so it was that Monday.
Can I tell you something?
You are such a treasure.
Get your ass vaccinated so we don't lose you.
Oh my God.
And so I reached out to you.
How do I even answer this?
What am I going to say?
Now, you never saw it.
But anyway, so I talked it over with the keeper and here's my reply.
That is very kind and thoughtful of you, Guy.
Thank you.
No!
Boom.
Right?
I think that's the way to go.
We'll just do that.
I think that, yeah, it may or may not have been what I'd tell you to do.
Well, but because we've learned that this mass formation, this mass hypnosis, that...
Trying to go against someone who's convinced of certain things, it only makes it worse.
So just saying, hey, thank you, man.
That's very sweet of you.
That's very loving.
I appreciate that.
Now, the Kentucky governor, no, he doesn't see things that way.
Just the mere fact that you are breathing and walking around is really an assault.
Your individual liberty ends when it harms other people.
Screw your freedom.
Your individual liberty to swing your fist ends when it impacts somebody else's face.
That's called assault.
That's creative.
Hold on, stop the presses.
I've never heard that before.
Oh, well, it gets better.
Face.
I'll take it back a little bit here.
Sorry.
Your individual liberty to swing your fist ends when it impacts somebody else's face.
That's called assault.
And an individual liberty does not exist to actively spread a deadly virus that can harm and kill other people when we know some very small and basic things to stop it.
So not putting on a mask or not being vaccinated is an assault on other people.
And this is this is the thing that they did so early on with the asymptomatic spread.
That's where all the freak out comes from.
And of course, the fact that, you know, the vaccines just seem to actually not be all that great.
You know, and I know a lot of people were really, really happy about this and thought it was hilarious.
But, you know, this guy is vaccinated.
The governor's office just announced that he is asymptomatic.
We know that he had been taking these daily COVID-19 tests, and today he tested positive.
Right now, the governor is there at the mansion isolating.
We're told by his office that he is in good health.
We know Abbott has been vaccinated.
Woo!
state government leaders to ensure it continues to operate normally.
Now, we also know the governor has banned local governments from enacting any mask mandates, instead leaving it up to individual Texans to decide if they'll mask up.
Well, just last night, take a look at these pictures.
The governor was in Collin County there in the Dallas area to meet with supporters.
In these photos you see posted on the governor's personal Twitter page, he's right there on stage without a mask.
It appears very few people here in this crowd are wearing masks.
So he had a positive PCR test.
Whatever.
We know that that's common practice now.
You have as much COVID in your nostril as someone who's not vaccinated.
But we're going to...
They're going...
This is kind of a bullcrap thought, but I'm going to throw it out there.
They really don't like Abbott and they don't like DeSantis.
Those are the two.
Christy Noem is like half...
Inconsequential.
Inconsequential to them.
She's in a rural state of a bunch of hicks, a bunch of dummies.
No power.
It was.
Yes, exactly.
Even though they have the Sturgis thing.
I do have one clip about that from Joy Reid, which is a classic.
Oh, let's do that.
Let's do that as a little...
I'm going to get my start out of the way.
Do you think it's possible that you'd put an intel agent, a field guy...
Into the field to go infect these guys, go to one of these big get-ups and give them with a pricker, you know, that little thing.
Disease them.
Well, considering what's going on in Afghanistan, yeah, I think anything's possible.
Absolutely.
Is this your Joy Reid intro?
No, that was a thought I just had.
Because that means DeSantis is going to get the COVID next.
If my thesis is correct.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, that would make sense.
Yeah, that makes total sense.
Yeah, just go give him a little...
Give him a little COVID. Yeah, a little coof.
Sturgis?
Yeah, all right.
As events like the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally become a super spreader in the making, with its 700,000 attendees certain to spread COVID all across the country, Republicans are still screaming freedom!
It's about life and death.
Republicans know what side to be on, and it seems that they have chosen to be on the side of death.
Yeah, man, I drove into Austin yesterday, get my hair done, you know, go to the P.O. box, do some other errands, and I listen to MSNBC on the way in.
I mean, it's like, that's what, all day, all day, you're going to die.
You've got no vaccination, you're going to die.
Republicans are killing you.
They are making you dead.
In fact, are you not dead yet?
Because the Republicans are doing it.
Texas, Florida!
It doesn't matter.
They can terrorize all you want.
This is how it's really going down.
Well, next, the college saying no vaccination, no internet.
That's the policy being laid out by Quinnipiac University in Connecticut.
The school says students who are not vaccinated by September 14th will have their Wi-Fi access cut, and students who don't supply vaccination proof will get fined $100 per week.
Mm-hmm.
Cut your internet.
And that's helpful.
That'll show him.
That'll show the turd.
What school was this?
Connecticut.
University of Connecticut?
I'm not sure if it was the University of Connecticut, but you want me to check again?
Yeah, I would like to know.
Well, next, the college saying no vaccination, no internet.
That's the policy being laid out by Quinnipiac University.
Quinnipiac.
Oh, Quinnipiac.
Yeah.
Quinnipiac.
Oh, brother.
What's up with them?
It's a dipshit school.
They're best known for their surveys.
Alright, let's go to Scandinavia then.
Justin Trudeau making mandates very real.
Good morning, Prime Minister Marika Walsh with the Globe and Mail.
Following on your response to Louis' question, can you please be specific?
You're championing this plan, but we don't actually hear from you how it's going to work.
So, moving away from the Federal Service and looking at travelers and planes, trains, cruises...
What happens to those travelers who refuse to be vaccinated and do not have a medical exception?
Will they be allowed an accommodation or can they not travel?
Canadians know that the way to get through this pandemic is for everyone to get vaccinated.
So unless people have a medical exception...
By the way, that's some NLP right there that we really need to call out every single time it takes place.
Canadians know the only way to get through this pandemic is to get vaccinated.
That is truly misinformation.
Herd immunity is the way you get through.
There are many ways to achieve that.
This is a lie.
And our politicians here, everywhere, they're doing the same thing.
It's a lie.
Canadians know that the way to get through this pandemic is for everyone to get vaccinated.
So unless people have a medical exception, they will not be able to board a plane or a train in Canada if they are unvaccinated.
That is about protecting our young people.
It's about protecting Canadians.
We are absolutely unequivocal on that because this is how we get through this pandemic.
Damn, man!
How can anybody vote for that guy?
Oh, thank you to all the producers who explained how the Canadian elections work and calling new elections, because that's exactly what Trudeau has done, has called for new elections.
And you have to do it within four years.
Yeah.
like having everyone locked down and mailing ballots uh then they call the election cheat with and they call the real election real quick but yeah that's that's really happening you cannot get on a plane or a train it will be it's going to be law uh i guess in all of canada that's i mean and by the way it's all coming our way i'm sure um Now, the most important question...
Here's the one that's going to happen.
Vaccination passport stamp.
Well, let's talk about that.
A vaccination passport, and there's many different versions of it, and there's all kinds of entities doing this.
IBM never really caught the wave the way they should have, the way they did in the 40s, because they really had the number system down.
But I'm not talking about a vaccination passport.
You're talking about a stamp.
A stamp in your passport.
Oh, that would be a good idea.
Well, in the UK, they're already talking about if you get vaccinated, you get your digital vaccination pass and you also then immediately receive a digital birth certificate.
So they're starting to combine these things.
So why not?
An actual stamp.
I like that.
Yeah, in your passport.
So when you go across the border, they flip through to see if you've been to Saudi Arabia.
Yeah, yeah.
What were you doing there?
And then they see the passport stamp and they stamp it.
Remember when I had Kuwait in Iraq and I had all these stamps in my passport, Russia, and I kept getting stopped?
Duh.
Yeah, I used to have a passport that was stolen from me when I was in Spain and pickpocketed.
It had all kinds of cool stuff in it.
So the question with this, and actually you kind of solve the problem if we do a physical stamp in the passport because it can just be like a loyalty card.
The question is, with three, with a booster from Pfizer and or Moderna, with a possible second dose of J&J, what constitutes fully vaccinated?
Well, here's Fauci to answer it.
Will this change the meaning of fully vaccinated, meaning that we're seeing organizations and companies and governments now putting in mandates and they're talking about people who are fully vaccinated?
So if you get to that point and you haven't had your third shot, does that put you in the partially vaccinated category?
That's a very good question, Lessa.
Before I answer that, I want to make sure people understand.
Still, the most important thing we need to do is get the unvaccinated people to get their vaccine.
It is entirely conceivable that we will determine that actually the proper full component will be the prime followed by the initial boost and then multiple months later a boost that could actually give you an increase in level As well as an increase of durability.
That's entirely conceivable.
So, of course, he skirts the real question, which is, what does that mean?
How do you upgrade your vaccine passport?
None of these systems were ready for this.
This goes on the pile of getting bigger list of things that have to be corrected in 10 years when they pull the stunt again.
And they'll certainly do something so that this can't happen.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is calling for law enforcement to crack down on fake vaccine cards sold online.
He also wants the Justice Department to prioritize cases involving the cards.
The feds have to step up their efforts to ameliorate this problem before it gets worse.
The Department of Justice must ensure the fraud cases are prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
And starting today, New York becomes the first city in the nation to require proof of vaccination for indoor activities that includes entertainment venues, gyms, and indoor dining.
Okay, a couple of things.
There's some local stories on this.
For one thing, some people are selling these cards online.
Yes.
Which is, you know, easy to catch those guys.
$1,500.
A pharmacist in Chicago has been arrested for allegedly selling COVID vaccination cards on eBay.
Prosecutors say the suspect sold 125 of the cards for $10 each.
She's charged with a dozen counts of theft of government property.
If convicted, he could face 120 years in prison.
I think Jeff Begay's did a whole report on the $1,500 guy.
Yeah, I mean...
How stupid!
They also show some B-roll of a guy being hauled off in handcuffs.
I don't buy these clips.
This is just some random B-roll they had of a guy getting arrested.
I like to...
They don't tell you who these people are, for one thing.
They say a pharmacist, this or that, a guy online.
They give them very little details.
I think these are very hard to prosecute cases.
Because, for one thing, in all these venues in San Francisco right now, you have to have a vaccine card to go into a bar or whatever.
But they just flash the cards.
There's a guy outside.
He's just, you know, the guy flashes the card.
The guy goes rolling in.
He doesn't get any of the details on the card.
Yeah, but that's not how it works in New York.
In New York, the way they've put this together is there are 600 officers for the whole city, and they check on the venues.
So the venue has to check and get this.
It gets better with...
They have to compare it to a government-issued ID... And if someone is caught in an establishment, you know, when the Gestapo come to check your papers, your COVID papers, it's the restaurant in this case, in my example, the restaurant gets fined.
So this is going to happen.
And the funny part about it is, it's racist to ask for ID to vote, but I guess it's not racist to ask for ID to eat.
Yeah, everybody's making this point.
So do you want to hear the Jeff Begay's fake vaccine cards report?
Okay.
Oh, he's crowning big time on this one.
Arrests connected to fake vaccination cards are on the rise.
Jeff!
In California, this man was taken into custody after allegedly selling fakes in his bar.
And many look like the real thing.
The one on the right here is fake.
The FBI told us that it is cracking down.
It's about criminal activity that could possibly hurt someone else.
You know you didn't get the shot, you shouldn't be carrying around the card.
The market for fake cards, which sell for as much as $1,500, is growing as more businesses and institutions require proof that you are vaccinated.
I think you're right.
This is a baloney story because they never mention the guy.
I think you're right about that.
3,000 fakes from China were seized in Tennessee in the last several months.
On the encrypted app Telegram, there are currently 2,500 active sellers around the world.
That's a number that's going up.
Mark Ostrowski's...
I love that.
That's a number that's going up.
I love that soundbite.
Just jam that shit in there.
Go for it.
And there are currently 2,500 active sellers around the world.
That's a number that's going up.
Mark Ostrowski's company, Checkpoint Software, looked into it.
Not only is that number of groups going up...
But also the number of followers.
Yeah, they got some Yahoo who's putting together his own passport system and he's shilling.
Oh, I'm so sick of these people.
Don't even want to finish the clip.
Instead, let's talk about religious exemption.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Not in California.
Today, San Diego Bishop Robert McElroy said the Catholic Church will not offer religious exemptions for the coronavirus vaccine.
In a letter to priests in the diocese, the bishop wrote the vaccine is, quote, perfectly consistent with the Catholic faith.
Pope Francis, who received the vaccine back in January, has called getting the vaccine a moral obligation.
Bishop McElroy got his shots in February.
So, that's nice.
There's a lot of people looking for religious exemption for the contents of all vaccines or many vaccines.
They had a good argument for a religious exemption.
I'm supposed to send it to somebody.
I can't find the paperwork.
What, it's the fetal cells?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Seems reasonable.
If you're going to be a hard-ass about it, it seems very reasonable.
No, it's not going to work in San Diego, Bishop says so.
Before I play my last two clips of the COVIDs, I just, you know, we're talking about the mass formation people being completely hypnotized.
In New South Wales, This is the digital minister.
I guess he's in charge of digital.
But he showed up at a press conference.
Unfortunately, I don't have a clip.
He showed up at a press conference, and people noticed something was off, and he posted about this.
At this morning's press conference, a number of people commented on my droopy eye.
Some people thought I was winking at the cameraman.
Some thought I had a stroke.
I've actually been diagnosed with Bell's palsy.
About 48 hours ago, I felt a pain in my skull behind my right ear.
This morning, I woke up with pins and needles on the right side of my tongue.
I only got it checked this afternoon after a number of people reached out to see if I was okay.
Thanks to everyone who reached out.
The reason I'm posting this is because hopefully it will remind people to look after their health.
We are focused on COVID, but there are plenty of other health problems going on.
This guy got palsy from the damn COVID shot.
Who is this?
This is the Digital Minister of New South Wales.
So we got the COVID. Yeah, Bell's Pulse is one of the, for a lot of different vaccines, not just COVID. Yeah, exactly.
I've seen, we saw Glenn Greenwald had it a year or so ago from something else.
Yeah, I forgot how he got it, but it was terrible looking.
He got over it rather quickly because I've known other people that have it.
They never completely recovered.
Actually, I made a mistake.
There's two other short clips I need to play.
What the lockdown's under is freaking me out.
Australia probably being six months ahead of us now instead of the, by me reported, six months behind.
I think that they're just, if we don't watch out, we're going this way.
Now, still in lockdown in most major cities in Australia for very, very small amounts of cases.
This is the Minister of Health for New South Wales, and they're starting a mass vaccination drive for kids and kids only.
No parents allowed.
I want to stress that to the mums and dads, your children will be well looked after inside when they arrive.
They'll be literally ushered.
We'll have nurses, we'll have some of the youth command, we'll have some of the young police from the various operations within police there just to guide them through as to where they go.
They'll be looked after every moment inside the stadium.
And they'll be well cared for.
So mums and dads, feel secure.
We've got about 24,000 students we're aiming to get through next week.
The messages will come out this week.
And the opportunity is there, but really you've got to take it.
Grasp it with both hands.
I know if you talk to any of our Olympians, I'll tell you, you've just got to grasp opportunity.
And this is an opportunity, so don't waste it.
So just hand your children over to the state.
Don't worry.
We'll have the youth command there.
What the hell is the...
Opportunity, don't waste it.
What is the Youth Command?
The Union.
Well, that's where my brain went to.
Let me see.
Australia Youth Command.
Hitler Union.
What was it called?
Hitler Juegens.
It's the Juegens.
Hitler Juegens.
Juegens.
The New South Wales Police Force Youth Command.
Oh, let's take a look.
I might as well say Youth Brigade.
That would be better.
Youth Command.
Well, one of our producers is going to have to tell us about the Youth Command.
So, next door, Kaina, New Zealand Prime Minister, Jacinda.
Jacinda.
Now, they had one case, so they locked down the country again.
One case.
One case.
Locked it down, because that's their strategy.
That's their strategy.
Zero COVID. And she took a little playbook, a little out of the playbook of New South Wales.
Stay local and do not congregate.
Don't talk to your neighbors.
Don't talk to your neighbors.
I mean, it's too bad she blows it right in the beginning of the clip because it's just, it's so dystopian.
Don't talk to your neighbors.
Stay local and do not congregate.
Don't talk to your neighbors.
Please keep to your bubbles.
It comes down again to those very simple principles.
We know from overseas cases of the Delta variant that it can be spread by people simply walking past one another.
So keep those movements outside to the bare minimum, wear a mask, and make sure you keep up that physical distancing.
Okay.
Why do they elect these psychos as their leaders?
I don't think if they really knew that they would turn out to be leaders, but I think they elect them for representation.
But then they turn into these...
And of course, Miss Jacinda is also hypnotized.
She's completely narrowly focused on this.
She has no desire to go back to the pain of the lockdowns, which now in the UK... They say, reported this morning, nearly one million more people in England, more, one million more, are addicted to alcohol as a result of the COVID lockdowns.
One million addictions.
I thought they were already at the limit.
Well, it's the Daily Mail, but, you know, there's always some truth.
Denmark has abolished all corona measures as of October 1st.
We'll see if they make it.
No masks, no vaccination mandates, no vaccine passports.
No, they won't make it.
I don't think they'll make it either.
Nobody can make it.
Nobody's making it.
This is the hypnotic situation we're in, and it's just not going to end.
Well, let's...
Until April of 2022.
That's my drop-dead date.
There are a couple of people, and these are my last...
I don't intend to drop dead, then.
I'm just saying this is the end of this.
These are my last two clips in the Rona sequence.
These are intended to shake people up and wake them up.
I don't think it'll do any such thing.
But the first one is Professor Christian Perron, Vice President of the European Advisory Group of Experts in Immunization at the World Health Organization.
So he is a member of a group of experts in immunization that advises the World Health Organization.
and it's only 34 seconds but this is the last you'll ever hear of him vaccinated people are at risk for the new variants and transmitted it's proven now in different countries so vaccinated people should be put in quarantine and should be isolated from the society and unvaccinated people are not dangerous vaccinated people are dangerous for others It's proven in Israel now,
as I'm in contact with many physicians in Israel, they have big problems.
Now severe cases in hospitals are among vaccinated people.
And so the general idea...
Now, hold on.
This clip, which is hard to hear, is really profound.
Coming from this guy, yes, I agree.
Yeah, I would say this is the most profound, and this should be a clip of the day, because I know how you got this clip.
Well, I just recorded on the internet.
Clip of this clip.
On the internet?
Holy mackerel.
So, this clip is pretty much the exosomes clip.
Yes.
And we keep hearing stories about people, I get letters to the same ones I get, where you're hanging out with a vaccinated person, and the next thing you know, you have sex fantasies, or you've got the itches, or something's wrong for a couple of days and you can't see straight, and then you just snap out of it.
Yeah.
I think this is going on.
Which is one of the reasons when...
And by the way, it's just the mRNA, not so much the J&J. Yes, I agree.
I think when Mimi and I were talking a couple days ago and they said, well, you can't go to bars and restaurants in San Francisco without proof of vaccination.
It was like, okay, we've got plenty of restaurants around here and they're not...
They're not doing that in the East Bay.
Yet.
Even if they do.
So what?
I can cook.
No, I know, John, but obviously what's happening is we have businesses crippling themselves.
Workers are going to leave.
The health care system and policing, these are very, very tight markets right now.
There's just not enough people.
Austin, no one wants to be on the police force anymore.
They can't recruit them.
Yeah, no, Austin's going to blow up.
It's going to turn into Cleveland.
It's going to turn into a shithole country.
Haiti.
So I went there yesterday and I mean, so now we're August 17th.
You know, City Hall, they swept up.
City Hall is clean.
But not only do we still have entire tent cities under the overpasses of I-35, Mopac, 183, But the trash next to the highway.
That was never like that in Austin.
It's just the whole...
It doesn't matter where you're driving.
In Austin, there's trash everywhere.
And that's also part of the new people who are coming in, who have no respect.
They don't care.
We're here for the no taxes and Google.
Google and scooters!
Woo!
Woo!
Scooters.
I forget about the scooters.
The scooter thing has really dropped off to nothing around here.
Now they've come back here.
They've come back.
Yeah, that's part of the deal.
Austin, you will supply scooters for the tech bros coming in.
Final clip.
Now, this is an interesting one.
Oh, first let me go back to the vaccinated.
So what this Professor Christian Peron is saying, what other immunologists are saying, but of course all that would be deemed misinformation, is the variant factories are the people who are vaccinated.
They are...
They are responsible.
Well, because they're vaccinated, I don't want to say they're personally liable and responsible, but that's why the virus mutates, and it could get worse with each go-around, and what we heard consistently for a year and a half, maybe longer, no, a year.
You don't vaccinate during a pandemic.
That is just not done.
And these people have been really marginalized, told to shut up.
We've had many clips saying you don't vaccinate during a pandemic.
That's the worst thing you can do.
You just create more variants.
So whether that's purposeful or not, I don't know.
This final one is a typical setting, school board meeting.
This is southwestern Ohio.
Except it's not about critical race theory.
It's not about masks.
And I have to question if this was an activist making a point or if the guy is for real.
I could not easily find a Dr.
Sean Brooks in Ohio.
But what he had to say...
Well, we'll probably stop it a couple times during this clip.
My name is Dr.
Sean Brooks, PhD, Oxford.
I have 48 publications, including 23 books.
I've studied health medicine, anatomy, and physiology for approximately 21 years.
Dr.
Robert Malone, who created the messenger RNA vaccine, has said no one should ever take these jabs, ever, under any circumstance whatsoever.
He created it.
And he says, don't ever do it.
So let me explain what's going to happen to the people who have taken it.
Here we go.
You ready?
You ready for it?
This is a throwback to our earlier clips of the horror stories, I'm sure.
Well, this is the counterbalance to how you're going to die if you don't have the vaccine.
So we are fair and balanced.
Yeah, why not?
Exactly.
I mean, we listen all day to what's going to happen if you don't take the vaccine.
Let's listen to someone's opinion of what happens if you do take the vaccine.
Your RNA vaccine has said no one should ever take these jabs, ever, under any circumstance whatsoever.
He created it, and he says don't ever do it.
So let me explain what's going to happen to the people who have taken it.
Excuse me.
Yeah!
For three reasons.
Number one, you've dramatically decreased your own immune system by 35%.
The first jab did it by at least 15.
The second did it by 35.
Now, if you take any booster shot, you will die.
That's it.
You take a flu shot in the future, you will die.
That's what he said, you take a flu shot in the future, you will die.
By the way, I'm pretty sure Malone didn't say no one should take it.
I don't think that's what he said.
He actually had issues with variant creation, etc., Anyway, you want to hear more?
Because the guy is dynamite.
Oh, no, this is wonderful.
And he's dressed to the T. He's bald.
He's dressed to the T like he could be a doctor, a successful doctor, not necessarily your PhD professor.
Yeah, I will mention something so we can kind of push back on this guy a little bit.
Oh, we have to.
I'm looking at Sean Brooks in Amazon Books because he said he did 40 books.
Right.
No, no, he said 26.
48 studies, 48 papers, 26 books.
Oh, 26 books.
Maybe medical books.
Well, maybe this is not going to be in here, but okay.
I can't find one book.
I could not find this guy either.
Except this book.
It's all about you.
The Essentials of Creating, Building, and Managing Your Online Brand by Sean Brooks.
If the guy's not bald, it's not him.
Well, it's just a picture of a book.
But I've seen lots of Sean Brooks, even doctors, but none of them.
This guy is questionable.
I set it up as questionable.
No, you did.
I think you did a good job of it, but I just thought I'd look his books up.
But no more or less questionable than any other douchebag.
Dr.
Jen.
Dr.
Jen on ABC. By the way, I hate to say this, but I don't know why this happened.
Yeah, Dr.
Jen.
His Ulsterholm was on...
One of the shows, but I had never actually visually seen him.
He's harsh.
Like a bulldog.
He's a dick.
He looks like an a-hole.
Yes.
Arrogant and smug.
Yep.
I met him in person.
Same vibe.
We continue with our good doctor.
Percent.
The first jab did it by at least 15.
The second did it by 35.
Now, if you take any booster shot, you will die.
That's it.
You take a flu shot in the future, you will die.
The second reason, antibody-dependent enhancement.
Antibody-dependent enhancement is what is happening with these jabs with everybody who has taken them.
Unless, of course, you've taken a placebo.
But there's no way that you would know that.
So given that fact, antibody-dependent enhancement tricks the entire body into believing that the cell that's eating the pathogen is eating it when it isn't.
It ends up leading to what's called a cytokine storm, which causes organ failure.
I should mention he's not reading this.
He's doing this, you know, Off the cuff, seemingly.
That will cause your death.
And there's no stopping that.
No amount of drugs will stop that.
The third thing, blood clotting.
Everyone who has taken the jabs is blood clotting.
If you don't believe me, there's a way you can find out.
Take what's called a D-dimer test.
What that does is that detects blood clotting at the microscopic level.
They're cutting full blood clots out of people right now.
As I'm talking to you, millions have died from the jabs.
In your last meeting, you advocated for people to take the jabs potentially in the future, along with wearing masks.
And I heard parents say the same thing.
So to the parents who are actually considering jabbing their own children, you're going to sterilize them permanently.
People who have taken the jabs are sterilized.
Eighty percent.
This, by the way, is where I lost a little bit of belief because, you know, I know all these others.
And I think, you know, the way he came out with the D-dimer test.
But when you say sterilize, this is a big meme that's been going around where some guy says, well, these, you know, they don't sterilize these vaccines.
But that's a medical term for being sterilized of a virus, not for being sterile as in infertile.
I agree.
So far, all I've heard is a concise kind of summary of other things that individuals from Dr.
Threepenny or whatever her name is.
Or the No Agenda Show guys.
There's all these people that we've had clips of, and they have these little tidbits.
The D-dime was about three weeks ago.
Somebody came up with that.
Yeah, yeah.
So he reads the literature, he reads the stuff, but again...
When he brought this out, I thought, but there's something to it.
It's well done, this activist, because I'm pretty convinced he's not who he says he is.
So I'm glad we're almost to the end, because what comes at the end is the best.
Considering jabbing their own children, you're going to sterilize them permanently.
People who have taken the jabs are sterilized.
80% of women who have been jabbed have lost their children in the first trimester.
You can't have kids.
You've also injected yourself with the equivalent of HIV. You can now no longer breastfeed, donate blood, donate organs, donate blood plasma, nor bone marrow.
If you don't believe me, try to donate blood and blood plasma and find out what happens.
You will be denied.
Unless, of course, you live in California, in which case they're allowing people to donate toxic blood with spike proteins in it.
The jabs create spike proteins.
They're in the jabs themselves.
And they create it by snapping your RNA in half.
You are no longer a human.
Yeah, there it is.
You are something else.
And you are susceptible to countless diseases.
Now here's what's going to happen in the future very quickly.
You have 15 seconds.
Great.
I don't know what percentage of your staff has taken the jabs, but your school is going to close.
You will not stay open.
You will close because they will fall ill and they will die.
That will happen in all of your buildings.
It's already happening.
Thank you, sir.
I bet it is.
It's already happening.
Good luck, because nothing can stop.
Thank you, sir.
The applause!
Wow.
Wow, what was that applause?
What were they clapping?
For him!
They just really liked that speech.
Yes!
Yes!
Now that, by the way, another great clip, I will say is...
Because of the way it ended, the applause, is disconcerting.
Yes.
Because it's the same hypnosis on the other side of the coin.
Yeah, exactly.
And I would be freaked out if I was a Pfizer exec or anybody like that and I heard the applause.
I would be very...
And I think there is an element...
This whole thing is the hypnosis is falling apart.
Yeah.
And I think that clip I played earlier from CBS where they're trying to slam us with this bull crap...
Mm-hmm.
And all these memes, and then at the same time, there's other networks that don't get the Pfizer money.
CNN, I would guess, doesn't get the money that CBS does.
But here's really what I'm seeing.
So first of all, for the producers who have been vaccinated, I really don't believe you're going to be dead in, as he said, three months, no, three to six months, three to five years.
I mean, what is that?
I mean, that's...
Five years.
Now, I really don't believe that.
A little too vague.
Can there be all kinds of stuff that pops out that you had lingering and that, you know, just since your immune system is weakened, that, you know, shingles, all these different things, the pseudo-strokes.
Yeah, I think that.
And these things happen with all kinds of vaccines, certainly the blood clotting.
So I'm really not in that camp.
But we have this narrative-counter-narrative.
And when it comes to Tucker Carlson, Because I watch everything.
You can watch all of Fox News all day long, and everyone's saying, you know, the five, you got, you know, even, what's his face, Jesse Waters and Greg Gutfeld, like, yeah, you should get vaccinated.
Everyone's all in, get vaccinated, get vaccinated, except for that one hour.
Yes.
And the one hour has liquid vegetable advertisements, the local car guys.
And I think the deal was struck.
With Fox, we know that there have been issues in the past, and we know that this is bread and butter for their pharma income.
A deal has been made.
It's very similar to Joe Rogan, and this is something new in corporate America.
Joe Rogan is really able to say things that should not be possible in a corporate environment.
But he is not being taken down.
It's too big to fail.
Joe is not counter-programming, but by letting him say what he wants, he is.
And the same goes for Tucker Carlson.
And I think it's important.
Prisoners always have to think they can escape, you know?
I have a bunch of Tucker Carlson clips today, which I normally don't do.
And we've kind of banned him.
But I have to say, I've been watching him...
Pretty much every show.
And he's got the best writers at Fox...
He's got the best presentation.
He is extremely insulting.
Like, how can you even do this?
I don't want to do these clips now.
I want to do them later.
Especially the insulting clips where he just insults people.
With a plumb.
It's just like, wow.
I couldn't imagine even saying some of the stuff he says.
He's allowed to do that.
And you'll see more of this.
You'll see more of this.
It's intentional.
He's definitely got the mark.
He is the jewel at Fox for people who like entertaining news presentations.
Yes.
And personally, I think that he was, and I called this a long time ago, I expected him to be kicked off of Fox television.
That didn't happen.
They just took all the ads away.
But his Fox Nation stuff is journalistically quite interesting.
And he's really doing a Joe Rogan, probably getting paid about the same amount of money.
To do three shows a week, a long-form interview with somebody.
And in fact, I also pulled some clips, but from the Fox Nation stuff, we'll get to that later.
Good, because you probably got the Laura Logan stuff.
Yes, I did.
Yes, I did.
Well, Laura Logan definitely said a couple of things in there that were dynamite, and I hope you put that together.
Yep, I did.
But I will say this about, let's stay with the comparison.
Rogan is a better interviewer, naturally, than Tucker Carlson is by a long shot.
And Rogan is more informed.
Much more informed about all kinds of issues.
When Tucker did the interview with Laura...
He stopped the interview a number of times.
Yes, and said, oh my God.
And at one point, just as Laura was going to go into something.
Yes, I saw this.
You saw this.
Yeah.
She's about to say something that was going to be very interesting because she was doing a lead-in.
She was doing a A, B, C, D, and...
And then he stops her.
Mm-hmm.
Because he was so flabbergasted by what she was exposing that he felt the need to, right in the middle of her presentation, to interrupt her with a bunch of compliments.
He said, you're telling the truth right now.
It threw her off the track.
Yeah, it ruined the whole payoff.
I agree.
I saw that.
And Rogan would never do that.
No.
No.
He's much better than that.
So yeah, but I think that's necessary and I really believe all of this has been thought about.
They're screwing it up.
You're right, 10 years will do it again.
I think it's very disappointing to people like Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi who know that they will not really be here for the final win when they finally have those useless eaters under their boot.
I think they're sad about that.
You know, they really, really, really, really want to see it happen.
They're going to be too old, so they'll have to pass.
Yeah, she's 80.
She's too old.
But they'll hang in for a bit.
They'll hang in for a bit.
They'll be rounding her up.
And with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you, the man who put the sea in the cataract, Eagle Eye, John C. DeVore, ladies and gentlemen.
Well, in the morning to you, Mr.
Adam Kerr.
Also in the morning, all ships and sea boots underground, feet in the air, steps in the water, and all the days and nights out there.
In the morning, you trolls.
We have a lot to say today.
The trolls in the troll room.
You can find them at trollroom.io.
We do the show live.
That's when you can hop in, troll about, let us know what you think, troll other people, try and get kicked off.
It's a free-for-all.
It's mayhem.
Let's see how many trolls we have there in the troll room today.
Come on.
Come on, hands up there, trolls.
All right, here we go.
Oh, they're scurrying away.
Oh, look at him go.
I counted 21-16.
21-16 is not bad.
It's above our lowest average.
No, actually, I think the average is about 21-18.
We're close there.
No, not on Thursday.
One of our producers did the whole rundown, and Thursdays are higher than Sundays consistently.
Thursdays are the day that it should be above 2,000.
I have the whole rundown from every count we've done.
Well, I sit corrected if this is true, but I don't recall anything such as this.
I shall forward it to you.
It'll be right next to the Guy Kawasaki.
I will take a...
I will take a random pic of two or three and go back and listen to those shows and get those numbers to verify his accuracy.
Okay.
I shall forward the email to you.
Well, trolls...
The record was still, I believe, which is...
No, it was 23 or something, the record.
2314, and I believe that was on a Sunday.
Could have been.
We will evaluate the data and get back to you as we follow the science.
So that's the Troll Room.
Now you can listen to noagendastream.com, which is live 24 hours a day.
Now some of them are pre-recorded podcasts, but they're all from Gitmo Nation.
They're all value for value, and we have many live shows.
So be sure to check in at trollroom.io.
If you want and you're on the real metaverse, which is the federation, the federated network of Mastodon servers.
There's also other types, but they all work together.
In magical ways, decentralized.
You can follow John at John C. Dvorak at noagendasocial.com.
I'm Adam at noagendasocial.com.
Just follow us.
The conversation will start to flow through your system before you know it.
And you can also sign up to any of the affiliated federated Mastodon servers.
The only one I can remember off the top of my head is itmslaves.com.
If you're running one and you allow sign-ups, shoot me an email so that we can figure all that out.
And thank you to the artist who brought us the artwork for episode 1373.
We titled that Mass Formation.
This was Capitalist Agenda with a beautiful piece, a composite, as artists are quick to point out.
And I think we kind of have to step in on this calling people out for using pieces of clip art, etc.
It's taking the fun out of it.
No, but he also stylized the girl.
More than she already was?
They don't have the yellow outlines and all the rest of it like they do with...
You remember the Obama poster with...
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, he pulled one of those filters out and overlaid it on her.
He did a lot of work on this thing.
Yeah.
And it has a nice look.
And it just sticks out.
It looks very slick.
It's slick.
And if anyone wants to bitch and moan about it, it's slick.
If you have something that's slicker, show it to us.
We're the art directors here, and we're the ones picking the art.
You've got to appeal to us, and it doesn't help if you're a whining artist.
Oh, that's a very bad idea.
So who's the whining artist?
I'm not going to say anything.
Yeah, I know who it is.
There's a couple of them.
There's a couple of them.
Now, I also like the Kenny Ben piece that was next to it.
I like that one a lot.
Which is, please do not leave the house.
A little guy in a box.
Hold on a second.
Because I'm looking at the page now.
I can't even find the winning art.
Oh, there it is.
Ah, yes.
Well, the one that I really wanted was you delivering the, Mike Riley, you delivering the newspaper on your Velocipede.
That was an excellent piece.
It was really good.
My Velocipede.
That's a ten-penny or a three-penny?
I forgot what those things were called.
I have no idea.
It's a big wheel in the front, little wheel in the back.
Yeah, somebody in the chat room knows.
It's called a three-penny or a ten-penny?
Ah!
What was Velocipede?
That's not what it was.
No, Velocipede is just any bicycle.
This is a specific name for this thing.
I thought a Velocipede had a big front wheel and two small back wheels.
No, no.
No.
I think it's a 10-penny or 3-penny or something.
Oh, okay.
I think a Velocipede is any bicycle.
Early form...
Now we're getting...
Here it is.
No, a human...
Velocipede.
Early form of bicycle propelled by working pedals on cranks fitted to the front axle.
Hello?
It is indeed a Velocipede.
Okay, well, I'm on a Velocipede then.
Which is just the best visual.
You should use that somewhere.
Yeah, I should.
So what didn't work for us was a booster die.
Although it was very aggressive.
Sir NetNet, I think, did these.
I like the aggressiveness of it.
Why did that fall by the wayside?
Do you remember?
But it never got into the play.
It never got into the play.
It's also kind of a fist in your face kind of thing.
It wasn't attractive.
Yeah.
I like the...
Well, I think we've already used this one.
Then there's Trump giving the finger.
Nah, we're not going to use Trump giving the finger.
Oh, here's the one I like.
The Vaccidental Airlines.
That was a nice piece.
With the air stewardess.
And that's what she is because it's kind of like a 19...
Yeah.
450s...
It's also by...
No, I remember that piece, but it was also by Capitalist Agenda, so he had two slick pieces.
Right, and we chose that one.
So it was like, well, we could pick one or the other, and we just picked the one.
You are right.
You are right, sir.
He's got a dynamite style that...
And he'll do probably art for...
There's another one down here that's pretty good by Nessworks, the Happy Hour one.
I didn't notice this last time.
He's done a couple of these, this Nessworks.
It says, no agenda, Happy Hour, free jabs, booster, bonanza.
Yeah, yeah, down the bottom.
Best drinks in town.
It's not bad, actually.
It's a nice piece.
Not bad at all.
But Nessworks and Capitalist Agenda have kind of come in and they're like professionals.
If they're not professionals, they could easily be.
And they're kind of like elbowing their way around the guys that are in more often than not.
Yeah.
Yes.
And they're kind of, I think they're bullying the other artists.
Yeah.
I think there's a lot of bullying going on, to be honest.
I think there's more going on behind the scenes than we realize.
Yeah.
That's all right.
But you know what?
It's cutthroat.
They come and they go.
These two guys, I can already tell they'll be here for about two or three months.
They'll burn out.
Screw these guys.
Damn artist crap.
I don't even get anything.
Exactly.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Now, luckily, you listener, if you are trying out a new podcast app, which I think you should, you can see these pieces of art fly through on the screen, which is put together by Dreb Scott, who does all of our chapters.
And I'm pretty sure that the newest app, this I believe is iOS only, is Castamatic.
And they've got a whole suite of these features.
Podcasting 2.0, we're gaining speed every single day, especially now that Apple is pretty much broken.
If you are wondering where no agenda is, it's not updating on your Apple podcast app.
It's because of Apple.
So do yourself a favor.
Get a new podcast app, newpodcastapps.com.
Now, let us thank some of our executive and associate executive producers and our value-for-value model who support us.
That's why we can speak the way we do.
We're completely free and open to say whatever we feel.
No corporate creepy money, no advertisements, just you, the producers who compiled the program.
We'd like to thank our executive producers right off the bat.
Yeah, right off the top is Seronymous of Dogpatch, which is his time of month he shows up.
Seronymous of Dogpatch and Loris Lobovia.
He wrote a long note, but this number, he always has these coded numbers.
And I always count, he sends cash in almost always.
And, uh...
And I always have to count it two or three times to make sure I get it exactly right, because I think there's a code.
Well, we've been trying to figure out his code for, I don't know, five years?
How long has he been around?
So this was $1,443.
And he always writes a very nice note with no jingles, no karma at the end.
Yeah.
Thank you to all the producers for your outstanding research, insight, support, and commentary.
Or communities.
Vax privilege is becoming the latest form of discrimination imposed on us people.
Vax Privilege, this is not a bad title for a show, has many complications including imposing the role of enforcement under threat of fines on businesses and encouraging citizens to create fraudulent paperwork, just like in Nazi Germany.
These papers look very good.
Vax or not, participating in the program seems like drinking from a whites-only water fountain.
That's what Mo has been predicting.
We're going to have that vax and unvax water fountain coming.
Yeah, well, that's not going to happen, but it's definitely a visual.
If it continues, my international travel may become restricted even as the pandemic subsides.
Oh, well.
So he has been traveling, we have to note.
We don't know what he does, but he goes a lot of places.
I'm concerned about this because the whole reason I think I discussed it with you is like, I'm going to go to Holland, I've got to see my daughter.
And we both talked about, yeah, well, Anonymous goes around the world just by being tested before he gets on planes, but now he's concerned.
He's concerned, but he's still traveling.
I might note that.
I am sure other producers have greater insight into vax choice, but I learned from a local pharmacist that the J&J vaccine was discouraged by her company, and it had nothing to do with efficacy.
Virtually all the other vaccines, including the ordinary flu vaccine, generate payments of $50 to $60, while J&J is $10.
Oh no, this won't do!
So they get a $10 single jab reimbursement.
It was unprofitable.
As a result, management discourages J&J vaccination and kept inventories low.
My daughter had to get a vaccine because she's looking for work.
And she decided that, well, if she's going to have to do this, she'll do the J&J. And she actually had to get on a waiting list for it.
Hmm.
And that's what she got.
Right.
The business, because they didn't know, why don't you just take this?
Take what you can first get.
Take that.
Yeah, yeah.
By the way, what kind of advice is it?
Whatever comes in, just take it.
Yeah, that's informed consent.
Just take whatever you got.
Get your hands on it.
I know rich people who got it way before anybody else.
Like assholes.
Of course.
That's what rich people do.
He says, the business decision makes sense, but as a taxpayer, it's disappointing.
On the preventative side, during...
Yes, I would say this.
In other words, the taxpayer...
We're picking this up.
Oh, yeah.
Instead of picking up $10, we're picking up $50.
Yeah.
On the preventative side, during a visit to Lower Slobovia, I was greeted in the foyer by my cousin's pet ferret.
Yeah.
When I asked why Bob was in the foyer, my cousin responded, if the critter dies, we take our ivermectin.
Oh my god, it's a mine ferret.
So far, the ferret in the foyer has kept COVID at bay in his household.
Keeping it short, war, no peace, no jingles, no karma.
Very interesting.
But also, how sick is it?
How sick is it that people are pushing more expensive vaccines because they make more money on it?
That's sick.
Is it sick?
You're in business, and people will take you anything that comes along.
You're in business.
People take you anything that comes along.
They don't care.
You're dumb.
No, but I mean, it's like Pfizer.
If I was setting this up with the initial Pfizer deals, and we know that Pfizer has the inside track at FDA, then...
Why wouldn't they say, hey, let's make it 50 bucks, even though we could do 10 competitively priced?
Well, 50 is what we want, because they'll pay for it, because every person who administers wants to get the 50 buck bounty and not the 10 buck.
I'm sure there was a meeting about this.
They thought about it.
Johnson& Johnson.
There's always a meeting.
The idiots at Johnson& Johnson went, oh, let's keep it.
Hey, Bob, let's try and keep this efficient.
We're going to do a favor for the public and give them a shot for cheap.
Dummy!
We're all part of this.
We're all part of a team.
We're all in it together.
We're going to save the world.
Yeah, well, that's the difference between Pfizer and J&J, I guess.
Even though J&J gets sued more.
Well, J&J's in New Jersey.
They're Jersey guys.
You know, they're limited.
Limited in their imagination for business.
So, let me read the next one.
You can read a couple.
Okay.
Jane Yancey's next for $500, and she says, In honor of my granddaughter, Lexi, who's being seen at Children's Hospital in D.C. for chronic pain, In grateful appreciation to the producer who reached out to her, out to her mother to help her in her search for an answer and initiated this medical visit.
Don't know anything about this.
Lastly to my daughter, but we have a team.
Well, that's no agenda social, I'll bet.
I'll bet that that's where people find each other all the time.
Of course, it's a good group.
Lastly to my daughter, Dame Anne of Grey Rock and Dame Anonymous of Colonial Place, who are loyal followers of No Agenda.
All right.
Please play China is asshole for me.
Thank you.
Yeah, I know.
I'm just looking at this children's hospital in D.C. You heard the D.C. meetup.
We got connections.
If you need help in Washington, D.C., we got spooks for you, baby.
China is asshole!
Yeah, go there.
All right, Jay.
And we certainly wish your granddaughter the best.
Lily Patch from San Diego, California, 33333, our favorite executive producer donation.
I was hit in the mouth with my super hot husband, Rob Patch, last month, who had been a long-time listener.
The name is recognized here.
After my first episode, I immediately donated $50 because I was comforted by the community of your show and recognized the value for value.
How about that for conversion, John?
One show.
One and done.
That's odd.
That is odd.
Well, her husband's a Gitmo resident.
Most of the one-show reactions is, I don't know what they're talking about, and there's all these noises.
I don't like it.
It's like a morning zoo!
Anyway, she says, I donated $50.
I was comforted by the community of your show and recognized the value for value, thereby crowning my husband a douchebag to which he then donated $88 towards John's anniversary fund on 8-8.
He did write a note, but sadly it wasn't read, so please de-douche it.
You've been de-douched.
Yeah, to reiterate, notes guaranteed for execs and associate execs, and we try to keep them short.
Yours is an example of a longer note.
I'm not sure if this is considered a boots on the ground report as I'm a fairly new listener and learning the lingo, but I live in a suburb of San Diego, spent four hours at Tuesday's Board of Supervisors meeting with 119 constituents speaking against mandating vaccines and hundreds more showing up for support.
Well, this is exactly what you need to do.
I'm happy that you're reporting this because all politics right now is local.
You've got to do it for your own community.
Screw Washington.
We packed three overflow rooms for this meeting.
One of our county supervisors, Nathan Fletcher, who's a new scum butt boy, had just done a press conference the day before recommending all businesses require proof of vaccinations.
This board of supervisors meeting went on for six hours because of the giant turnout.
Supervisor Fletcher never took the time to even look or listen to any of the 119 people who spoke.
Instead, he was staring at his phone the entire time, angrily tweeting against us.
Impeach these people.
We did learn that his campaign contributions came from Big Pharma and vaccine companies like AstraZeneca.
Oh, go figure.
There were some comic relief moments, like when one speaker totally discredited County Health Officer Wilma Wooten's numbers, and someone in the crowd yelled out, BUSTED! Fletcher and his politician wife, Lorena Gonzalez, in addition to Wilma Wooten, are a disgrace to humanity!
I hope that after we successfully recall Newsom on the 14th that they are next on the eviction list.
And she provides a link to the meeting, which I'll link to her name.
And what does she say?
Oh, yes.
What is the final here?
That's a long note.
It's not fitting up.
That's it.
Lily Patch, San Diego, California.
Oh, no, wait.
Can you please give Fletcher, that would be Supervisor Fletcher, a giant douchebag and play Slave?
Douchebag!
Shut up, Slave!
I think that's what you mean.
All right, thank you, Lily Patch, for your boots-on-the-ground report and support of the show.
Drucy from Baltimore, Maryland, 33333, says, This is my one-year anniversary of listening to the best podcast in the universe.
After my cousin hit me in the mouth around 2008, it only took me 12 years and a global pandemonium to come around.
Welcome.
We've been waiting for you.
After discovering this was not some wild conspiracy podcast, but rather a therapy for the actual conspiracies, I fell in love.
Please de-douche me.
You've been de-douche.
I've smacked many others in the mouth who, as far as I know, are still douchebags, so call-outs for Nate, Rodney, Jamie, and Jenna.
Love is lit from Drucy.
Thank you very much, Drucy.
I gotta kick out of this note.
How Eric handles it?
Her last name is there.
I know.
But I handled it.
It was fine.
It worked out.
I watched you do it because I saw you kind of pause and then read the little notes and don't read last name.
Hey, hey, hey.
And a cold read, okay?
Cold read, baby.
Everyone knows that everything we do here is cold reads and that's why...
And it's amazing.
But you get good at it when you practice it enough.
Bored Stupid, by the way, is next on the list.
And it's Bored Stupid at NoAgendaSocial.com in Pueblo, Colorado, 33333.
Another one of the executive producer specials.
All year we're going to do this until everyone becomes an executive producer at least once in their life.
At least once.
Dear producers, donate bigly, frequently and succinctly.
No jingles, no karma.
More stupid.
Now that is the succinct aspect of his donation.
That is a very good donation note.
Sir Sean of the Allegheny Valley.
Natrona Heights, Pennsylvania.

Birthday donation.
I turned 56 today.
That was yesterday on the 18th, so this is my present to myself.
Another executive producer credit.
Sir Sean of the Allegheny Valley.
And he is MCC1701 at NoAgendaSocial.com.
Thank you very much.
I'll do this one.
Jocelyn, you're invalid.
What?
We are such a pair, man.
I can't hear, you can't see.
Damn.
I can see fine.
Sure.

Dear John and Adam, my husband hit me in the mouth several years ago.
However, this is my first donation.
Please accept this donation on behalf of my interior design studio, Ledger and Ladder Studios.
Ledger and Ladder Studios.
I began my career as a CPA and spent 14 years in consulting, honing my project management skills.
Somewhere in all of that, I fell in love with interior design.
As I ventured deeper into the industry, I realized this industry is chock full of leftist ideology.
It's enough to make anyone go insane.
However, your approach to media deconstruction has kept me sane as I go deeper into enemy territory.
Therefore, I'd like to request some business karma.
I hope you can send some clients my way that are looking for a designer that provides a refreshing contrast to the old guard of exclusive designers.
Check the studio out at ledgerandladder.com.
And thanks for all you do.
And here's a...
I'm going to give you some interior goat.
You've got...
karma.
That always helps.
So Arnest Selman's in Tallinn, I guess, and I think this is Estonia.
I believe.
E.E.? Yeah, I think that's Estonia.
Could be.
Look it up.
I will.
I will.
333, and he has the best, most succinct note.
He says, thank you.
Let me just see.
It's Tallinn.
Tallinn.
Let me see what that is.
I think you're wrong.
That might be right.
I think it's Estonian.
Tallinn.
I'll double check.
Well, you're looking at that.
I'm talking Sir Erededarian at Black Knight.
It is not just Estonia.
It is the financial and business capital of Estonia.
Ooh.
That's probably a nice town.
By the way, beautiful women in Estonia.
Era to Dairy and the Black Knight in Trabuco Canyon, California, 333.
Due to a merger, my daughter Grace needs to find a new job.
She has a degree in computer science with three years experience.
Well, there should be plenty of jobs around if you're living in Palo Alto.
Yeah, 200k a year.
Easy.
Yeah, so I am sure she will have no issues finding something.
Well, where's he from?
Oh, he's in Trabuco Canyon.
That's L.A., I think.
I am requesting job karma, so she finds an exceptional job.
Stay safe.
Stay safe!
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
Let's vote for jobs!
Now, a familiar name is back, Illuminatia.
Ah, we've not heard from our...
I don't want to reveal her job, but for a while.
Well, yes, she's a lab technician.
She has been very open.
She was doing podcasts with Nick Durant.
Oh, okay.
I don't know this.
Yes.
She was very upset in general with what was going on.
She was very upset.
333 from San Marcos, California.
First of all, apologies for being...
Did you mention her name?
Illuminatia.
Yeah.
First of all, apologies for being AWOL for a while.
It's a long story that involves being upset with my job and not feeling up to the stuff I usually enjoy doing.
Since my son was born, I feel like a plant that has been watered after not being watered for a while, slowly coming back to life.
That's nice.
And, you know, as your son grows older, he will slowly start to suck the life back out of you.
Yeah.
He'll be hopeless.
But you get a good 20 years.
Five years, yeah.
No, not five years, John.
Give the woman some hope.
Today, August 19th, is my husband's birthday.
He's been a rock and works his ass off for us.
He's a humble genius approaching all problems with sage-like wisdom and reserve.
Brandon, I love you.
You're an amazing father and husband.
Happy birthday.
Some time ago, an amazing anonymous donor, you know who you are, thank you my dear friend, made a $1,000 donation in my name.
I put it aside to knight my son, Riley Maverick Gruber, as was the donor's intention.
Riley, or Maverick as some call him, cool name, by the way, Mav.
Oh, Maverick's a great name.
We'll call him Mav, Mav.
Maverick's a great name.
Great name.
It was born on May 25th and has been such a light in my life I can't even begin to express.
Although his middle name is wrong.
It should have been at least Riley Maverick John Adam Gruber.
Just saying.
My family and friends.
That would have been a fabulous name.
I mean, that's even better.
That's like a royal name.
My family and friends have endured many hardships, including the sudden death of one of our close friends who died from vaccine complications.
He was only 50.
Riley was born the day of our friend's funeral and brought a lot of joy to those who were grieving so deeply that day.
I know every parent says it's about their kid, but there is something special about him.
At three months old, I suspect that he would be the youngest knight yet.
That's going to be close.
I'm not sure.
Please knight my son, Sir Riley Maverick, young knight of the enlightened.
He can only have breast milk right now, but when he's old enough, he'll have sausage rolls and sketti, which is how we say spaghetti in the Gruber household.
Thank you for all you do.
We love you and cherish your work.
Thank you for your courage.
Illuminatia.
Now that's super nice.
Yeah.
Riley.
Mav.
Maverick.
I think it might be one of the youngest.
It's never too soon to get your kids on the peerage ladder.
I guess she's set the bar.
She's set the bar.
Now they've got to go in the womb to get this nighties out.
We have a knight or a dame reveal.
It's no longer gender.
What are you having?
A knight?
Now you're talking.
Wait a minute.
Yeah, and they do it on this show.
On this show.
I'm pregnant with a Viscount.
Have all your friends listen in, and then we'll do the reveal on the show.
The reveal, yes.
That's the way to go.
Instead of taking a chance on starting a forest fire.
Andrew Sally's next on the list.
He's in Rochester.
He's our first associate executive producer.
$251.52.
Yeah.
Please attribute this donation to Pat E. Oh, switcheroo.
Hold on.
Yeah, switcheroo.
Okay.
Sorry.
That's okay.
Greater Minnesota.
Also, a F cancer karma for all out there fighting the good fight.
Why are all these characters here for...
I'm sure it's just quote marks.
Microsoft.
I love you guys.
Thanks for the weekly thought provocations.
Was that too long, John?
No, it wasn't.
You've got karma.
Christy Jensen is next from Huntington Beach, California.
248.18.
Interesting number.
Cheers, Adam and John.
Short donation and to the point.
Oh, 20 times 12 months of sanity plus 8.18.
My birthday.
Boots on the ground report from Huntington Beach.
Approximately 29 container ships waiting for the LB port on a daily basis.
No jingles, no karma.
XOXO, Christy.
XOXO, 73s, 88s, back to you.
You know, I'm going to take my camera, one of the cameras that does video, I'm going to record, I've got to do this pretty soon, one of those trains, every morning about, I think it's about 8.45, I have to get the exact time so I can go down to the tracks, and record these trains going by with the millions of cargo containers.
It just goes on forever.
I don't think people realize how much stuff is flowing in from China as we speak.
Oh yeah, and it's one way only.
Yeah, pretty much.
It's Deadhead.
So the cargo containers are building up on this side of the ocean.
Philip Lyons-Smith in Oakville, Ontario, 23456 is next.
I got my new phone, which has a loud ring.
Yes, I can hear it.
ITM, gents, after John's comments on Sunday regarding the effete Trudeau.
Let me say that again.
Regarding the effete...
And that coinciding with the calling of general election here, I knew it was time to make another donation.
Thanks for helping me stay sane.
We're all going to need it up here.
Phil.
Speaking of the Prime Minister of Canada and being effete, did you hear his most recent soundbite, du jour, that is traveling around?
Yes, I did.
Here it is.
You have it?
I do.
It is exactly the example of the kinds of things you need to do to counter the she-session and turn it into a she-covery.
Fact is… Why is he saying she-session and she-covery?
I mean, a man and a woman, okay, I can kind of see how you get something crazy like that, but it's recession and recovery.
Is he afraid of saying the word?
Is there something I'm unaware of?
The guy's a psycho.
He has to be.
And he stumbled over it, which is even worse.
Well, he had it in his mind.
He thought it was going to be clever.
And then everyone was going to comment on it, and he was going to get a lot of attention.
He choked.
And he choked.
Yeah, he choked.
He choked on it.
It's so dumb.
I mean, I can see herstory.
I see where you get that.
But...
Okay.
No, the guy...
I don't know how they're not embarrassed by this guy.
And he's looking more and more and more like the insane Fidel Castro kid that he is.
It's so obvious.
So Trudeau is a she-tard.
By his logic.
He's a she-tard.
I'm liking this.
I think it's totally valid.
I'm writing down as a show title.
Yeah, she-tard.
Okay.
Well done.
Let's see.
Where are we?
We did this.
Oh, yes.
Sir10T, Duke of the 7th Federal Reserve District.
One of our favorite numbers, 23456, just like Philip.
Crackpot and Buzzkill, thank you for all you do.
Keep up the great work.
Would appreciate some grad school acceptance, R2D2 karma.
All right.
Sir10T, Duke of 7th Federal Reserve District.
We got it.
You've got...
Karma.
Now we have M. Andrew Jones who came in with...
I can't tell if M. Andrew Jones is a man or a woman.
It's hard to say.
The handwriting looks...
Anyway, this is Viscount of America's Mountain.
In the morning, everyone should aspire to be an associate executive producer at least once in their life.
Be more like Hollywood bigwig, Dana Brunetti.
After two months, it's working, John.
Your plan is paying off.
I like the fact that Brunetti, who just...
Hates the fact that he was associate.
Yeah, because according to Brunetti, I'll just tell you what it is.
Now, this varies from...
Publishers now use these titles.
They started doing it when they went on the internet, so the web editor might now be an executive producer.
Oh, I was unaware.
I was unaware of this.
And they're using all the titles wrong, just the way Brunetti bitches and moans to me about the fact that associate executive producers is a terrible title.
And they do the same thing.
And TV uses them differently.
And Hollywood uses them.
They're all slightly different.
So podcasting really can call the shots on the way we want to use these titles.
And since we developed it, we call the shots.
Done.
Yeah.
But, you know, again, the same way I complain, we complain.
So it's nothing new.
It says also, please push my new book, Viscount of America's Heartland, M. Andrew Jones' Happy Anniversary, John.
Yeah, well, I have the book.
Well, please push it.
Because I went to the P.O. Box, and this is, the book is Metal, M-E-T-A-L, by M. Andrew Jones, and it's fiction.
It's not a very thick book.
No, it's a...
I don't know what you call it.
I'm looking for a blurb.
Does he have a blurb from you?
John C. Dvorak says this book is outstanding.
He's never asked.
I would give him a great blurb.
So it's mandrewjones.com.
So mandrewjones.com slash metal.
Metal, a rock and roll story of assorted obsession and cold hard cash.
How about that?
Is that a promo or what?
Yeah, that's good stuff.
That's a promo right there.
Thank you, Andrew.
Samantha Gonzalez, down south?
On the road down south.
Closer to me, actually, than Austin.
San Antone, 20821.
By the way, that's fascinating.
You're closer to San Antonio.
That's going to be your new home base.
Well, yeah.
How's the restaurants compare?
What do you mean?
Austin to San Antonio?
We know we don't have a-holes who book up all the restaurants just in case they want to go out.
And they make three reservations for Saturday night at three different places.
That's not happening in San Antonio.
You're talking about restaurants.
Well, in the Bay Area, in the superstar restaurants that we have around here, that ended years ago when all these superstar restaurants, I'm talking about the places that are expensive and well-known or two-star Michelin, they make you pay in advance.
Yes, but you know what's happening here in the Hill Country?
Waitlist.com, I think it is.
So the restaurants don't take reservations.
They have a link and it's waitlist and then you get on and you can see how many people are waiting before you and they move it up and it's much more efficient because you don't have a table for four sitting empty because it's being held for a reservation.
And, you know, you can pop up, you can meet 18 people and it can only take 10 minutes.
So people sit in their car, because you can park anywhere in the hill country, or out front, the restaurant, and it's a very efficient system.
I'm surprised.
It's much better than reservations.
I've never heard of this.
Yeah, I'll get you the link.
I think it's waitlist.com or something like that.
Almost done with the associates.
Samantha Gonzalez from San Antonio.
Can't say this enough.
God bless you both and the No Agenda Show.
You've both been a godsend during these crazy times.
My husband and I started listening after Adam's second JRE appearance.
We are currently expecting our first baby due in January.
You know the middle names.
Next month is my anatomy scan to find out the gender of the baby.
And unfortunately, my husband cannot be present for this appointment as the clinic recently instated a BS policy that does not allow visitors into the exam room unless they have proof of their vaccination.
To be fair, the clinic has not pressured me into getting the jab, but it still sucks he can't be there during this special moment.
Reveal this as a knight or a dame on the show.
We just offered this as a great promotion.
Anyways, this donation is for my handsome, supportive, and protective husband, Freddie, whose birthday will be on 8-21.
Would you be so kind as to play the following jingles for his birthday?
I'd like China is asshole, magical shape-shifting Jews, and something from Sharpton.
Well, we always have something from Sharpton on hand.
I love you, Freddy Bear, always and forever.
Thank you, Adam and John, for everything you do.
Stay safe, y'all!
Stay safe!
China is asshole!
R-E-S-P-I-C-T Boom.
Alright.
Onward with Anonymous.
Random Anonymous from Johnstown, Colorado.
Since UPS sold their freight division to T-Force, I didn't know this.
I didn't know that.
My driver told me they lost 40% of their business.
Really?
I don't know anything about this.
I don't either.
Stefan in Massachusetts is a douchebag.
Douchebag!
Get out of the blue.
P.S. Stay safe, John.
Stay safe!
I'm just going to keep doing that.
What is that?
Who is that?
Stay safe!
I don't know.
It's pretty good.
I like it.
It's very good.
We have a couple, I think.
We have...
What's this one?
No, this is the one.
It's the only one we really have.
It's a good one.
Anonymous from Johnstown.
Another anonymous?
What?
Yes.
Wait, also 233.
Wait.
That's interesting.
We don't have a place, but the same 233.
Anonymous donation.
In the morning, rest in peace, Trevor Moore, the best comedian of an era.
Are you familiar with Trevor Moore?
I've heard of him.
Millennial in international trade.
That's who I think this is.
FYI, FedEx Ship Manager software just changed Taiwan to Taiwan China in the early 2021 update.
How about that?
And he ends with Stephen in Colorado is a douchebag.
Douchebag!
Now maybe...
Now the other one was somebody in Colorado.
Maybe this anonymous was calling out the other one.
Maybe they're both named Stephen.
No.
And they're yelling at each other.
That's weird.
I don't know.
It's hard to say whatever the case is.
Whatever happened, happened.
Adair...
Dillaha, I think is how you pronounce that.
$200 as we wrap this up today.
You guys do exceptional work.
I sincerely appreciate the information and entertainment.
At least you said entertainment instead of infotainment.
I am beginning to believe that Elon is right.
Maybe we're all characters in a video game.
It's the only thing that would explain this insanity.
I think it's reasonable to think that.
Firmament first, but after that, yeah, definitely simulation worthy.
And he does wrap it up for today's donation segment at the beginning of the executive producers and the dreaded associate executive producers for show 1374.
I want to thank each and every one of them for making this show possible.
Indeed.
Thanks to everyone.
These titles are very real.
We've heard that discussed a number of times today.
So be proud of it.
Display it anywhere that it makes sense.
Anywhere credits are accepted.
IMDB is one.
Go look at the big Hollywood bigwigs.
You could have a title that's higher than a Hollywood bigwig.
Don't want to say too much about it, but it's true.
We'll also be thanking people who came in $50 and above in our second segment.
We really appreciate this.
This is how the show keeps going.
14 years for The Great Experiment.
It's your no agenda show.
You are responsible for producing the best podcast in the universe.
If you'd like to participate in this experiment, go to...
And thank you for your time, your talent and your treasure in producing episode 1374.
Our formula is this.
We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
I know.
I don't know why that is.
I can't help it myself.
It's pretty funny.
I don't know where that came from.
Did I do it?
I don't know.
Maybe.
Well, the whole idea is it's the new Heil Hitler.
Heil Hitler.
So let's go with the...
The big discussion now is going to be on Afghanistan.
I got one clip.
I want to put it in there right away to get this information out of the way because of all the misreporting.
You were talking about Carlson having his own niche.
It's funny to listen to Carlson bitch and moan about the Afghanistan situation and calling everybody out as boneheads.
And then he hands it off to Hannity It was old school and he goes on and he says, well, you know, everybody knew and blah, blah, blah, blah.
And then Biden, you know, hadn't these old school, Biden didn't listen to intelligence sources and he just went ahead and he screwed up everything, which is bullcrap.
And I have the definitive clip on this idea that Intel from the DIA, the State Department, and the CIA, and the NSA, all of these guys had a clue as to what was going on.
They may have, but did they inform anybody?
Here is Miley on collapsed Intel.
Let me make one comment on the intelligence.
Because I'm seeing all over the news that there are warnings of a rapid collapse.
I have previously said from this podium and in sworn testimony before Congress that the intelligence clearly indicated multiple scenarios were possible.
One of those was an outright Taliban takeover following a rapid collapse of the Afghan security forces and the government.
Another was a civil war, and a third was a negotiated settlement.
However, the time frame of a rapid collapse, that was widely estimated and ranged from weeks to months and even years following our departure.
There was nothing that I or anyone else saw that indicated a collapse of this army and this government in 11 days.
Central Command submitted a variety of plans that were briefed and approved by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Secretary of Defense, and the President.
These plans were coordinated, synchronized, and rehearsed to deal with these various scenarios.
One of those contingencies is what we are executing right now.
As I said before, there's plenty of time to do AARs and key lessons learned and to delve into these questions with great detail.
But right now is not that time.
This is a good clip.
I've been in contact with DIA in Afghanistan trying to get nine Terps, as they're known, out.
But this is not a DIA thing.
This is CIA who orchestrated this.
And whatever Millie just said there, what a bunch of, what a crock.
What do you think it's a crock for?
Well, that's the question.
Was their intelligence that said that these guys are all going to bail out in five minutes?
I don't think so.
Well, listen to what Dana Perino said on The Five.
She used to be Bush's spokeshole, Bush Jr.
Listen to this flub.
Truth wants to come out.
And the Secretary of Defense today, they indicated that they have better control over it.
But what's strange is that I watched the State Department briefing right before that and it sounded like the Taliban was not allowing people through.
And then we just have our own reporting.
And that is people that actually now they have cell phones and they can call and they're telling their people that they know in the United States saying, I can't get out.
And that is people that actually now they have cell phones and they can call and they're telling their people that they know in the United States saying, I can't get out.
What?
She wants to say handlers, but she corrects herself and then says people who they know in the United States.
Listen again.
And that is people that actually now they have cell phones and they can call and they're telling their people that they know in the United States saying, I can't get out.
Let's list handlers.
Mm-hmm.
So there's a bunch of spooks there.
By the way, look at these Taliban dudes.
Taliban banana.
This is new Taliban.
This is not your daddy's Taliban.
These guys know how to keep their finger off the trigger when they're standing around.
You never notice that in the pictures?
Yes, they're professional.
Yes, yes.
Any guy who's standing there with his weapon and his finger on the trigger has not been trained by America, okay?
So everyone who has their finger on the guard is going to shoot your foot off.
They are trained.
These are trained.
These are new people.
Well, it was also the guy that's the head guy, the new guy that took over them.
In the olden days, we have to remember, I mentioned this in the newsletter.
I wrote up a little short note.
That the old guy was this Mullah Omar.
Yeah, that guy.
Mullah Omar was a nut job.
And he's the one who was responsible for blowing up the Buddhas.
And he's the one who, it was, you could be stoned to death if you flew.
Couldn't fly kites.
Women couldn't show their faces.
These guys, they did a press conference.
They have a press guy.
Yeah, they had a press guy who just did a translation.
Yeah, no, this group is a little slicker.
And I don't believe, because everyone's fearful.
I've got a bunch of clips here.
We could play the clips and talk about it.
But I think that these guys know what they're doing.
And not that they're going to be a great operation, because they keep talking about Sharia law.
I'm sure the women aren't going to be too happy about it.
But they're not going to be doing this stupid shit they were doing before that was getting them a lot of negative attention.
In fact, listen to the Taliban spokesperson gets a question about free speech.
Because now all of a sudden they're international players.
They're on the scene.
They do press conferences.
And the press asks them questions at a press conference.
But listen to the answer.
question should be asked to those people who are claiming to be promoters of freedom of speech who do not allow publication of all information in I can ask Facebook company.
When the Taliban says you're a dick, you're doing something wrong.
I can ask Facebook.
That sounded very Putin-esque, by the way.
Taliban still has their Twitter account and Donald Trump doesn't.
No, of course not.
But if you look at Dorsey, have you seen that guy?
He looks like a Taliban guy.
With that beard.
Well, there's your answer.
Now you know why they still got their Twitter account.
When I saw Richard Engel on the ground, I knew something was up.
Oh, yes.
In fact, the one I don't have clips of, I have an Engel, I think I have a short Engel clip, but you probably have a better one.
No, no, I don't have an Engel clip.
Oh, Engel's best clip, which I didn't get.
Now, we know this guy to be a spook.
I mean, we have concluded this years ago.
Richard Engel is, and by the way, he's a liar.
He's a lying spook.
We've caught him lying so many times, and he's always there when something goes down.
Not just a spook, a lying spook.
A lying spook.
His best bit was on Rachel's show.
Oh, did you get it?
He went on there and went on and on.
No, I didn't.
I'm sorry.
But do I even have the Engel clip on the other show?
I don't think I do.
I did get a good piece from CNN, who I think were also in on it.
This is a very odd report.
Clarissa Ward, she was there when it first came down.
Because she's now iconic.
She's got her hijab on.
And she's running around in between the Taliban.
I cut a little bit out of her report here.
This is a site I honestly thought I would never see.
Scores of Taliban fighters and just behind us, the U.S. Embassy compound.
Some carry American weapons.
They tell us they're here to maintain law and order.
Everything is under control.
Everything will be fine, the commander says.
Nobody should worry.
What's your message to America right now?
America already spent enough time in Afghanistan.
They need to leave, he tells us.
They already lost lots of lives and lots of money.
People come up to them to pose for photographs.
They're just chanting death to America, but they seem friendly at the same time and It's utterly bizarre.
I can't get over that last statement.
They're saying death to America, but they seem very friendly at the same time.
What is that?
Well, this is like the group that took over Yemen, South Yemen.
Their motto was death to America, but they couldn't understand why we weren't going to do business with them.
And the conversation would go like this.
Well, you keep saying death to America.
Yeah, but that's just our motto.
Yeah, that's my slogan, man.
And it reminds me of the old joke about, the guy goes to the one-hour cleaners, and he says, I'd like to get these back in an hour.
And he goes, no, we can't do that.
He says, well, it says one-hour cleaners.
And the guy says, no, no, that's just the name of the place.
But let there be no mistake.
When we say this is the best podcast in the universe, it is.
Oh, well, that's, yeah, it's a lot different.
Okay.
I have a couple clips I want to move.
Blinken was the guy who was the funny one.
Blinken is our Secretary of State.
Yeah, he is like...
And listen to Tucker insult him.
In fact, let me just play the Tucker...
Do I have a Tucker insult?
Yeah.
TC, which one is that?
Excuse me.
Insulting.
Yes.
Which one?
Go ahead.
Oh yeah, here it is.
Blinkin' insult TC. Play that.
Okay.
Sorry about that.
Corona.
We could go on.
We could torture you with the failures and the details.
We haven't even mentioned our, quote, Secretary of State, Tony Blinken, a man so mediocre you gasp when you hear him speak.
Can you really be that dumb and run the Department of State?
Yeah, you can.
Yeah.
I'm liking this.
I mean, he's much closer to what O'Reilly was doing.
He's way beyond O'Reilly.
O'Reilly always had his foot on the brake.
O'Reilly would never do what you just heard there.
O'Reilly would never do that.
You're hearing a man who has no fear at all.
He has no fear of being fired.
He's already done.
He figures he's screwed.
It's like one year, about 15 years ago, the Simpsons have been on TV for like 30 years.
About 10 to 15 years ago, there was going to be the last season.
And so The Simpsons went nuts.
I can't remember.
Some people might know what season this was, but every show was insulting to everybody in Hollywood and everything else.
It was out of control.
And the ratings skyrocketed to such an extreme that they had to keep the show on, and it's been on ever since.
And that's what Carlson is kind of in that position.
So he says, well, more on the point, let's listen to just a few of these insults.
I want to play this before I get to Blinken.
This is O'Reilly.
I'm sorry.
Whoa!
Hello, Freud.
Vaccine.
This is vaccine.
This is Tucker Carlson insulting Bill de Blasio in just an unbelievable way.
We take you now to New York City, whose mayor is not only famously incompetent but also physically unclean.
Of the 340 million Americans now living in this country, Bill de Blasio is the single last person you would ever go to for medical advice.
His diet consists almost exclusively of bong hits and Pringles.
There's no chance he brushes his teeth every day.
Your 17-year-old stoner nephew has much better personal hygiene than he does.
And yet, somehow...
Because Bill de Blasio still has political power due to the fact that a tiny group of people once voted for him four years ago.
He has decided to overrule practicing physicians and force his subjects to take medicine they may or may not need, and in some cases that might hurt them, whether or not they want to take it.
That's the rule.
How does this work?
How does it work that he can do that?
And, you know, there's no Twitter mob that's able to take him down.
I mean, it's a deal.
It's a clear deal.
He has transcended somehow his own job.
Yes, yes.
And a sense of freedom seems to have come over him.
Mm-hmm.
And he's just...
Balls to the wall, I know.
He's like a podcaster.
He's in fact like a podcaster.
Yeah, I really admire what he's up to at the moment.
I mean, I can't see this going on forever because somebody's got to stop him.
Now, I have to say, in general, his show is reasonably boring because of the guests.
But his opening monologue and when he does stuff like this, it's really good.
But he's got a lot of mediocre, boring people on, too.
It's an hour long.
If it was a half-hour show, it would be so hot.
Yeah, that's right.
Cut him!
But that's not going to happen.
They've got to give them the hour.
They don't do that at a half hour anymore.
I mean, that's what it used to be.
Stuff like that used to be.
Let's listen to Blinken.
This is Blinken 1, MTP. We're going to listen to him.
He doesn't...
These guys, they can't say...
Meet the press?
MTP, meet the press?
Meet the press.
The fall of Kabul seems inevitable now.
Do you concur with that?
Look, what we're focused on now is making sure that...
Stop.
Back it up.
Stop it.
Start it over.
Tell me he can't even answer the simple question.
Yeah, it looks like it.
He can't say that.
No, he says, look!
He says, look!
And then he goes on to some other thing.
And then I think, by the way, I think there was one of those, what do you call it when you do a, you're going to go one direction and you decide to go a different direction because he didn't answer the question, you decide to slam him.
I think that's what happens here, but let's play this.
The fall of Kabul seems inevitable now.
Now, do you concur with that?
Look, what we're focused on now is making sure that we can get our people to a safe and secure place, that we can do right by the people who stood with us in Afghanistan all these years, including Afghans who worked for the embassy, worked for our military.
We have a massive effort underway to bring Afghans at risk out of the country, if that's what they so desire.
And ultimately, it's up to the Afghans themselves.
It's up to the Afghan government.
It's up to the Taliban to decide the way forward for the country, including Kabul.
He uses the phrase, if that's what they so desire, instead of the word want.
Yeah.
Kind of an asshole does that.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Okay, let's play partially.
So he doesn't get an answer and he doesn't follow up because I think they're kind of, you know, this is Todd, Chuck.
Chip, Chuck, Chip Gregory.
And it's like, okay, well, let's try this on him.
And so he goes after him with a pretty harsh little jab.
Goes harsh on him.
I want to play something you said in June about the withdrawal and get you to respond to it on the other side.
Here it is.
I don't think it's going to be something that happens from a Friday to a Monday.
So I wouldn't necessarily equate the departure of our forces in July, August, or by early September with some kind of immediate deterioration in the situation.
How did that assessment end up so wrong?
How'd that work out, man?
Is that an intelligence assessment that went wrong?
Is that Pentagon assessment that went wrong?
Your own?
How does not age well?
Two things, Chuck.
We've known all along that the Taliban was at its strongest position in terms of its strength since 2001.
When we came to office, that was the fact.
And we said all along, including back then, that there was a real chance that the Taliban would make significant gains throughout Afghanistan.
But on the other hand, I have to tell you that the inability of Afghan security forces to defend their country has played a very powerful role in what we've seen over the last few weeks.
It's really unbelievable when a program like Meet the Press, which at one point was really the bastion, I mean, now it's a daily, but they still have the weekly on Sunday, when the interviewer, and this place has been held by some pretty hefty journalists, I think, in the past, and this place has been held by some pretty hefty journalists, I think, in the past, when he literally Well, that tweet didn't age well, did it.
That tells you something about the state of journalism.
He didn't have anything to say, then, That didn't age well, did it?
What a dick.
He's not the best.
It's also true.
It's also true.
He's so smug.
Speaking of things that didn't age well, let's listen to the president from July, quickie.
Is the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan now inevitable?
No, it is not.
Why?
Because you have the Afghan troops have 300,000.
Well-equipped, as well-equipped as any army in the world, and an air force, against something like 75,000 Taliban.
It is not inevitable.
Well, it made sense to him.
Yeah, to him.
Sure.
I mean, if you're thinking about it, you're getting bad info.
And you're told just the basics.
You don't, you're not over there.
You don't go over there.
You don't really see anything.
You don't go wander around the streets.
You're clueless and you're hoping that you're intelligence people.
You get the briefing every day.
The guy comes over and says, hey, blah, blah, blah.
And you get the briefing and you're told that you got three, look, What are the chances of 75,000 people having an American well-armed 300,000 force of soldiers that can probably take over half the countries in the Middle East?
It's almost like the phony baloney.
Remember Saddam Hussein?
They had this guard of some sort that was going to be the greatest army in the world.
They just folded.
These guys fold.
They fold it.
And there was no evidence that they were going to do that, even though I suppose you could figure it out.
And Laura Logan, of course, you have some clips.
Let me get these out of the way we play her.
Here's another Blinken clip.
I don't know what this is from.
It's Blinken.
It says Lincoln.
Lincoln tube MP3. Lincoln.
Hold on a second.
Economic, diplomatic.
You don't think that Afghanistan now is going to become a hotbed of terrorism?
No.
Jake, we have tremendously more capacity than we had before 9-11 when it comes to counter-terrorism.
Yeah, and you really don't want to mess with the CIA. You don't want to blame them.
Back to Dana Perino.
Some stories coming out from the intelligence community saying that's not true.
And that has happened.
And NBC News had one earlier today from the CIA.
Again, anonymous sources.
We'll see if there are hearings on Capitol Hill.
This is obviously going to be one of the questions.
But a very dangerous thing for any president is to get in a fight with the intelligence community or to call them liars or to question their work.
Because any president really needs the intelligence community to be on their side and to be working for them, not against them.
What if they screwed up?
Well, then, again, it's the battle, right?
But the empire strikes back.
And they do it anonymously and the media will take it.
it and every single time the other thing i was going to mention is yeah yeah maybe that's uh how we get joe out yeah because i mean i'll take this is the same threat that was made against trump right away by schumer yep Do not screw with these guys because they're going to screw you over ten ways to Sunday or whatever he says.
Six ways to Sunday.
Yeah, and this is, okay, who's running the country?
Why don't we just give them the country if they're going to do it?
But they're not doing a very good job at some stage.
Although, maybe they're doing a great job.
And all we're seeing, this is all a smokescreen.
By the way, that clip I just played is part two of this clip, which is blinking with Jake Tapper also looking like deer in the headlights.
Political.
To work to sustain their rights.
And at the same time, as I said, to make sure that if the Taliban does not do that, if it's in charge, that it clearly faces the penalties for not upholding those rights.
And we will do everything we can to make sure that's the case.
Everything except for the U.S. military.
President Biden is intent on avoiding a Saigon moment.
That's a reference, of course, to the hasty and humiliating U.S. evacuation from Vietnam.
But with this troop surge to airlift Americans out of Afghanistan, aren't we already in the midst of a Saigon moment?
No, we're not.
Remember, this is not Saigon.
We went to Afghanistan 20 years ago with one mission, and that mission was to deal with the folks who attacked us on 9-11.
And we have succeeded in that mission.
The objective that we set, bringing those who attacked us to justice, making sure that they couldn't attack us again from Afghanistan, we've succeeded in that mission.
And in fact, we succeeded a while ago.
And at the same time, So remaining in Afghanistan for another one, five, ten years is not in the national interest.
You know, the British were there for a long time in the 19th century.
The Russians were there for a long time in the 20th century.
We've now been there twice as long as the Russians.
So we're twice as dumb?
I don't see.
And as I mentioned a moment ago, I think most of our strategic competitors around the world would like nothing better.
than for us to remain in Afghanistan for another year, five years, ten years, and have those resources dedicated to being in the midst of a civil war.
It's simply not in our interest.
You know what I found interesting about our Secretary of State, Blinken, and I've been looking at international news, so just so you know, yeah, this is America, America, America, but the conversation now in every country in Europe that participated, we have The Dutch flying in Afghan refugees.
Up to 20,000 Afghans will be granted the right to move to the UK as part of a new resettlement scheme.
There's refugees coming to the United States.
There's a lot of anger about...
About personnel who are in embassies.
There was no warning to any of our so-called allies.
Everyone was like, what?
They're leaving?
And this whole airport thing?
There's flights taking off from the base only at night.
But that's still happening.
The Laura Logan clips, I think, will give us a little more insight.
But Tony Blinken...
So, he talks to Jake Tapper, he talks to Chuck Chip, but who did Trudeau talk to when it came to a world leader about this?
I also spoke last night with former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who shares our concern for Afghan women and girls.
She welcomed our efforts and urged Canada to continue our work.
Now, the minute she shows up...
Yeah, what's that all about?
Because it stinks.
Because it stinks.
This whole thing stinks.
We are not this dumb.
It stinks.
It's lame.
I don't have the answers, but we may get closer.
Okay, well, let's play these last two of mine.
And one of them would go right back to Tucker, and he brings in this...
Now he's talking about the real apparent bonehead in the whole thing, which, of course, he insults, which is the guy who's the National Security Advisor.
Jake Sullivan?
Jake Sullivan?
I don't know his name.
Yeah, I think it's Jake Sullivan.
But he's got no credentials whatsoever.
I mean, they always, you know, they condemn Trump for some of the people he put in here and there.
Nothing compares to some of the stuff that Biden's done, but nobody says jack about it except Tucker, and here we go.
And then there's the Biden administration overseeing all of it, the group led by the senile credit card shill from Delaware and staffed by power-hungry non-entities who believe their God.
Hubris?
That doesn't describe the vibe at the current White House.
It's much more grandiose than that, and there's far less justification for it.
Here's our sitting national security advisor, for example.
He is 44 years old.
As far as we can tell, he has never had an actual job.
Outside of school, he has no accomplishments whatsoever.
Watch this highly respected Rhodes Scholar explain that, in fact, everything you're seeing on TV from Afghanistan is a victory.
How do you explain getting this so wrong?
Well, first, Savannah, to be fair, the helicopter has been the mode of transport from our embassy to the airport for the last 20 years.
But you know the larger point.
It's not the helicopter.
It's not the mechanism.
No, no.
It's the last-minute scramble.
You know that.
It's the last-minute scramble when the assurances from the president himself were, this was not what we were going to see.
The reason that there are U.S. forces at the airport effectuating a successful drawdown of our embassy, securing the airport to be able to get other people out, is because the president pre-positioned those forces, thousands of them, in the Gulf so they could be moved in rapidly in the event that there was a rapid collapse.
Oh, so they're effectuating a successful drawdown of our embassy.
So that's what we call it when you burn your files and flee in a helicopter from approaching gunfire.
You're just effectuating another successful drawdown.
Woohoo!
Hey, we're walking on our turf.
Back off, Carlson.
Back off.
We make the jokes around here.
The last one, I want to get this, and then we'll get the good stuff.
Let's get this out of here, because this I did not know, and this is just Tucker talking about stuff that I didn't know this was going on to this extreme.
He may be exaggerating, because I think he does.
Because I will watch him closely, and some of the stuff, you know, he gets criticized for it, and I think he might be a little over the top with some of this, but if this is true, this is pretty bad, but let's play this as him on the gender studies and what's going on in Afghanistan, which is driving up the Afghanis nuts.
Left-wing academics in the U.S. have used the developing world as a laboratory to test their theories about how societies ought to be ordered but aren't.
Over time, they've constructed a parallel government of NGOs that work alongside our Pentagon and our State Department, as well as with the United Nations, to impose radical social engineering projects on the world's poorest people who have no say in the matter.
Over the past 20 years, for example, Congress has allocated close to a billion dollars to export academic feminism to Afghanistan.
Where'd that money go?
Well, it went to programs like a two-year master's degree in gender and women's studies offered at Kabul University, something Afghans apparently never knew they needed.
Another U.S. government effort, meanwhile, funded, quote, activities that educate and engage Afghan men and boys to challenge gender stereotypes.
Right.
They weren't doing that enough.
And of course, always and everywhere, leaders enforce the most American of all cultural exports, affirmative action.
American-funded gender advisors demanded that women compromise at least 10% of the Afghan National Army and a still larger proportion of that country's political leadership.
Thanks to American-imposed gender quotas, dozens of women ultimately were installed as representatives in Afghan's parliament.
How'd that work?
Well, the whole thing was a sham, as always.
In fact, many of these new female legislators had never been to the provinces they claimed to represent.
Almost nobody in Afghanistan liked any of this, by the way, and why would they?
Yeah, there was a picture going around of a mural of gender equality, equity, and a whole bunch of Afghan women and children huddled around with guns trained on them.
There's a lot going on.
There's a lot of propaganda here.
When it's all about the women and the women, and then Hillary Clinton is calling Trudeau about the women and the girls.
This is the same with Boko Haram.
Where are the girls?
Think about the girls.
There's something going on here.
Yep.
And, you know, here's a guy who probably knows something, although he seems to have fallen from grace along with his jowls.
This is Leon Panetta, former CIA director.
Was he not Secretary of Defense at one point as well?
I believe so.
I think so.
He was all over the government.
Yeah, so here's a little blurb from him.
We went there for two missions.
One, to go after Al-Qaeda and the leadership of Al-Qaeda and Bin Laden.
Because of what they did in attacking our country on 9-11.
And we were successful at going after Al-Qaeda, and obviously I'm very proud of the mission to go after Bin Laden.
Obviously.
Even though he was in Pakistan.
But there was a second mission, which was to prevent Afghanistan from ever becoming a safe haven.
Was that the mission?
It's funny that not a single report mentions that, but this is Panetta's version.
For terrorism again.
Unfortunately, we have failed at that mission.
And with the Taliban now controlling Afghanistan, there is no question that they will provide a safe haven for al-Qaeda and for ISIS and for other terrorists to be able to reorganize, strengthen themselves again, And potentially use Afghanistan as a base for attacking not just the United States but other countries as well.
this is a national security threat so who says that well he's cia isn't i mean he's he's really a cia guy that he was also secretary defense was an anomaly and all the cia guys they all know it and come on the cia has been running ran obama didn't run trump if anything that was dia so now we're back to the cia running the show we know the Dear, dear President Biden is not running anything.
But to show you that Panetta knows, at least he has a story, this is General Lloyd Austin, who is the boss of the military here.
Listen to this, Jamoak.
But that doesn't answer the question.
I mean, you're still saying you're focused on the airfield.
These people can't get into the airfield.
We're going to do everything we can to continue to try to deconflict and create passageways for them to get to the airfield.
I don't have the capability to go out and extend operations currently into Kabul.
And where do you take that?
I mean, how far can you extend into Kabul?
And how long does it take to flow those forces in to be able to do that?
So it sounds like you're saying this depends on diplomacy with the Taliban.
That's it.
That's our only option, is getting them to agree to do this.
Well, let me add something here, Elaine.
They've got to jump in on him.
The guy is caught in the headlights.
I don't have the capability.
I'm going to...
No, no, no.
Clueless.
Clueless.
That's the guy running the military?
Please.
So now let's talk about the Taliban.
Caught this piece on the BBC about the Taliban and their funding.
And obviously they have to have money in order to have weapons and do things and run the show.
So how do they get all this money?
How do they do it?
So we know there's plenty of people willing to fight, but fighting is expensive, not just in lives.
You need to pay for weapons and actual fighters.
So how are they doing this?
Michael Semple, is it possible to know how rich the Taliban is?
There is one suggestion that in 2019-2020 they had about US $1.6 billion.
Is that plausible?
It's absolutely plausible.
I've done some work on this and arrived at figures not far off that amount.
And if we're going through the sources of success of the Taliban movement, they have embraced the challenge of managing the public finance of an insurgency.
They have been extremely effective in developing diverse sources of revenue.
Essentially, they tax everything in the areas that they control.
So they take money from the heroin trade.
They take money in the forms of customs duties from all goods moving through areas that they control.
They take a cut out of contracts which are implemented in areas they control.
They take money from the telecommunications companies that run mobile services.
So although they're famous for being largely funded from the massive Afghan trade in opiates, actually they tax everything.
And they have a pretty effective public finance system with budgeting, dividing up these proceeds between the different parts of the movement.
So I have a hard time believing that we were in Afghanistan for 20 years and they were able to build up a $1.6 billion kitty from taxes and deals with telecom companies.
They did this under our watchful eye, and the Taliban made money from opium?
The Taliban?
The Taliban.
We stick with LBC, the big London voice.
Here's a farmer, at least a farmer who has family in Afghanistan, who grow poppies.
And here's what he said about the poppy trade.
Let's go to Yasser in Surrey.
Yasser, you've also got family in Afghanistan.
How are you feeling this afternoon?
Yeah, hi, mate.
Yeah, just really sad about everything that's happening over there.
But the main point is, there's farmers out there.
You know, my family are farmers.
And what happened over the last 20 years was, when the Taliban were last in, we couldn't make as much money from farming poppies as we have been doing over the last 20 years since the Taliban kicked out.
Now, what those poppies are used for, we don't really care.
None of my family care.
But we were allowed to grow poppy fields, fields and fields of it, and make a lot of money from that.
Now, what's happening now?
Is that going to come in and burn all the fields?
Is that a good thing or a bad thing?
What do you think?
Well, these are the poppies that are used for opium and heroin, so many people listening to this will say, well, it's a good thing.
It might mean that the supply of those drugs falls, but what you're saying is that's your family's livelihoods.
That's the food on their table.
Yeah, so although it looks like they're doing a good thing, you know, there's not a lot because there's a bit of a small market out there.
There's only a few families that are allowed to grow them.
But they're going to basically shut down those families and not let, you know, I think when they were last in, they reduced the heroin export to 2%.
And when the Americans came in, it went up to 200%.
You know, there were Chinook helicopters flying out.
We were making a lot of money then.
But now it just seems to be that they're going to come in, take over, not let anyone grow poppies.
Well, it's not just poppies, is it?
Yeah, so they're not going to let women teach.
So that kind of goes against what the BBC said there.
And I love that this guy just says, well, we had American Chinook helicopters flying that shit out for us.
It was good times!
Wow!
I don't believe...
Okay, there's a number of things that need discussion.
Discussion?
Discussion.
I was getting into my British and my...
Yes, I... Yes, very good.
Sean Connery.
First of all, when we first heard about the poppy fields when this thing began 20 years ago, you'll recall...
They discussed a lot of the idea that the Taliban were burning the poppy fields.
Right.
Now, but then now that the Americans came in, the poppy fields were all replenished, and now they have seasons and the whole thing, and we read the reports, and the Taliban obviously has to get a cut of the action.
I did see some letters come through, some notes saying, well, we used to grow poppies, and the Taliban would just steal the crop.
That's possible.
And now the Americans came in.
At least we got paid.
But now is it possible to let this whole fiasco end the way it did?
And you also have to remember, and we had these clips about the screwy guys that Obama freed.
Yes.
During his era that were poppy kings.
They were poppy kings.
Afghani poppy kings.
And they sent them back there.
And we thought they were going to work with our people to do a deal so we could maybe pull out and then let them be the middlemen.
There's something business-y going on around these poppy fields.
And I think a deal was finally struck.
Between the CIA... I'm just guessing.
I don't have any evidence of this.
But it just seems like when you hear Laura Logan talk...
Yep.
She says some things that make you believe that something happened and the CIA did it.
Okay, we still need these poppies to help finance some of our black ops.
And they struck a new deal where it's a 40-50-50 deal, 40-60 something.
And the money is going to go into the Taliban coffers.
They're not going to be burning poppy fields anymore anymore.
See, you know, at least for now, they're going to split some, you know, we'll take care of the distributions.
The Taliban doesn't have that.
They're not outside the country with a distribution network.
We are.
Well, back to the $1.6 billion that they were just sitting on after 20 years of us watching over them.
This is indeed Laura Logan.
Now, I like her for a number of reasons, in this case in particular, because she was a wartime reporter in Afghanistan, lived there for a year.
She's the real deal when it comes to war reporting.
Very impressive.
And she was on Tucker Carlson today.
And I, of course, I adhere to the rules, cut as much of Tucker out as possible.
But she really blew me away right off the bat with something that I had never heard.
It even took Carlson by surprise.
So they know, for example, the United States could bomb the Taliban supply lines right now.
They're all coming from Pakistan.
Everybody knows it.
In fact, they're coming right through the Spin Boldak border crossing, one of the early ones that the Taliban took in the beginning of this offensive.
They know that the Taliban doesn't exist without Pakistan, right, and the Pakistani ISI. They know that the United States...
ISI being the Pakistani intelligence service.
Right.
And they know the United States funds the entire defense budget of the Pakistani military and intelligence services.
So, for example, you could stop the money.
You could stop the remittances of Pakistanis living in the United States.
You could put sanctions.
You could have visas.
Every time you try to address this issue, the immediate response for 20 years of this war has been, You're advocating for war in Pakistan.
No, you're not.
What they know is there are many things the United States could do right now to change what has happened and is happening in Afghanistan, and they're not doing it.
So when I heard that, this was one of those clips where we would typically say, whoa, wait a minute.
Certainly the follow-up question was, what?
The United States funds the entire Pakistan military and the ISI, their intelligence arm?
Which runs the Taliban.
Well, so that just passed by in that clip, and lo and behold, Tucker Carlson said, hold on a second, what did you just say?
Wait, can I just pause?
I'm asking a series of dumb questions.
Why would the U.S. government be funding the Pakistani military and its intelligence services?
You know, okay, so that's a fantastic question.
Now, this supersedes a great question, John.
A fantastic question is above and beyond that.
And really is one for the U.S. government.
But what I can tell you is that when we hear about the bureaucracy that is on Capitol Hill, which are the bureaucrats who survive from administration to administration, this has been their policy.
They have pushed through the Bush administration, through Clinton, through Obama, through Trump.
And now to Biden, that because Pakistan is a nuclear nation, they are the only country in that region that actually matters.
In fact, Joe Biden told Afghan's president, when Harman Karzai was still in power, exactly that.
On his listening tour after Obama won, he said to him, we don't care about Afghanistan.
And we believe that Pakistan is the most important country in that region and they always will be.
And that message never ever changed.
And what you're seeing in Afghanistan today is the results of that policy because the Taliban leadership is based in I mean, the Qaeda Shura, the Peshawah Shura, and the Miram Shah Shura.
Those are the three leadership councils that cover the entire war for the Taliban in Afghanistan.
They are not just in Pakistan.
They are in the loving and warm embrace of the ISI. And the United States has known this from day one.
I have two more clips here.
Her overall point in this interview, which was the whole hour, is that this is completely engineered, completely scripted.
The intelligence services know exactly what's going on.
The Taliban has been in our pocket through the Pakistani intelligence services for decades that we fund in its entirety.
And of course it makes total sense that the Taliban leaders are in Pakistan.
Bin Laden, whoever they got, was in Pakistan.
Pakistan, Pakistan, Pakistan.
Makes sense that Trump was all up Modi's butt.
And Pakistan's rival in India, probably more along the lines because the Chinese have quite a stronghold in Pakistan as well.
So this is a very interesting scenario where we know exactly what's going on.
According to Laura Logan, the ISI and the NSA know everything.
I mean, this is the staggering part to me, is that when you hear this debate, the intelligence agencies fail to see this.
Seriously?
Seriously.
The NSA is known as the crown jewel of intelligence collection in the world.
There isn't a digital signature in existence that they don't collect and store and analyze and have algorithms and everything else to sort through.
The idea that they miss this.
Do you know what it takes to do an invasion like this?
You have to stage forces.
You have to plan.
You have to have meetings.
You have to have, you know, weapons that are moving in.
I'm looking at our producers.
Are you listening to this?
You're making sense.
Keep going.
I mean, it's as ridiculous as believing that Ahmed Chalabi, some Iranian refugee in the U.S., persuaded the U.S. government to go to war.
I mean, that's literally our narrative on the Iraq war.
Seriously.
I mean, we get so caught up in the weeds of this.
What they want you to believe is that Afghanistan is complicated.
Because if you complicate it, it's a tactic in information warfare called ambiguity increasing.
Now, this ambiguity increasing is a real thing, and I put the document, which is a military document, in the show notes.
It is an entire system and strategy of creating confusion, and there's a lot of tactics to it.
It's a big document, but that's something to be looked at.
So she's speaking of something that exists, and now she comes to the end, which doesn't answer the question we all want to know, but she gets us kind of close.
So now we're all talking about the corruption and the this and the that, and there's all these complex parts.
But at its heart, every single thing in the world, in your personal life, professionally, on the global stage, at its heart, it's very simple.
It always comes down to one thing.
One or two things.
And in this space, in Afghanistan, this comes down to the fact that the United States wants this outcome.
Whoever's in power right now, whoever's really pulling the strings, and I don't know that, they could do anything they want to change this, and they're not.
And you see that on the southern border.
You see that with critical race theory.
You see that with the violations of big tech.
You see it with, I mean, in a thousand different ways, you see it all around you.
So there it is.
She says there's strings and she doesn't know who it is.
But this situation in Afghanistan could be changed, according to Laura Logan, who I think knows, could be changed at any given moment for any outcome because we control the whole thing.
Most people are, you know, compartmentalized, only know small pieces of it.
But now, finally, I think I understand Trump's weird...
The thing that he's been doing recently is he was on Hannity.
On defending this for years and years.
We've been there really now, not 20 years, but 21 and a half years.
So he's now upped his game because he's found out that Adam and John didn't quite understand what it was yet because he was saying 21 years instead of 20.
He always had a year, one year off.
And now he added a half year.
So he is claiming that this is pre-9-11.
Yep.
I think this is a way of saying, this is how 9-11 happened.
We've been running this show for 21 and a half years.
That's how I interpret it.
I think that's a good interpretation, because he keeps doing this, and now he's upped it to 21 and a half.
Mm-hmm.
Which predates 9-11, which means that something was going on that was all pre-planned and it was executed before 9-11.
The execution had already begun.
9-11 was...
He doesn't say it, because that would make it sound like a nutcase, but what he wants to say, or what you want him to say, what you want him to say, is that 9-11 was part of this whole scheme.
Yep.
And I think that's his message.
He keeps pushing it, and the math is like, it hurts my brain.
2001 to 2021, well, that means an extra year and a half, so yeah.
And it has to be a year and a half before, because it's not a year and a half coming.
Right.
With Laura, she made this interesting...
I think it's Lara.
It's Lara.
She made this point that the people in the streets of Afghanistan, they know what's going on.
And they think that...
And she does kind of say it there in that last clip, which is that The U.S. is getting what it wants.
It did this on purpose.
In other words, this...
This is the outcome.
That's why you called Miley full of crap.
In fact, I think Miley was just...
I think he wasn't.
I think this is what he had in front of him.
He was compartmentalized like everybody else.
Fair point.
He's not read in.
He's not read in.
Yeah, fair point.
He's not one of the...
No, this is the CIA. This is the real system.
And the CIA had made a deal.
They're back in the poppy business.
Everything's going fine.
And now we can get out and this mess is going to be interesting.
It's going to be played some way or another.
But it was part of the big scheme of...
Yeah.
And we're talking about it.
And it's part of the big scheme to get people.
It's a distraction of the week, which is a clip we never play anymore, even though for the last five years we have not played distraction of the week and we have not paid much attention to the distraction of the week.
But this is a crazy distraction, but it's a distraction of the week.
Distracting us from what?
You know, the problem is...
Uh...
That for some reason it's not named Distraction of the Week.
Don't look over here.
Nothing to see here.
No, look at that.
That's not it.
We had an actual Distraction of the Week.
No, that's not it.
No, we have a...
The Distraction of the Week.
Oh, on no agenda, right?
Distraction of the Week.
Hey!
On no agenda.
Don't look at Pakistan.
Whatever you do.
Don't look at Pakistan.
Look at something.
I don't even know if it's Pakistan.
It could be Somalia.
Oh man, we're bombing there too.
We're bombing Somalia.
Nobody's covering that.
Nobody's covering Hunter Biden's laptop, for God's sake.
They won't even cover that, which is a good story, because it's funny.
I mean, it's unbelievable what's not being covered, so we could be distracted from maybe ten different stories.
Not with our producers, John.
We have the best in the business.
I'm going to show myself all by donating to no agenda.
Imagine all the people who could do that.
Oh yeah, that'd be fun.
Yeah, on no agenda in the morning.
We do have a few people to thank for show 1374 that helped us get this show going, including Eric Kiyuragi.
I think it's Kiyuragi.
Eric Kiyuragi.
$100.
He's got a birthday for somebody coming up for Brian Mickey.
Texas Joe, by the way, came with another $100.
He's got a long note.
You want to look at it and see if there's anything there for us.
April Beering.
Oh, actually, I did want to say something about Texas Joe.
I think this is the group that were doing the homesteading in Texas.
Oh, yes, yes.
So it was such a success, they're taking it on the road.
So, it's Freedom and Farmsteading 2021-22.
Look it up.
Because they're going around.
They're going around doing stuff.
It's successful.
People want a homestead now and farm.
They don't trust the big box, the supply chains.
Yeah.
Yeah.
April Behrig in Amboy, Minnesota, 8222.
She sent a nice little card and she always has a heart and a love always, April.
I think she's a dame.
But I appreciate the little note.
And she sent a little bookmark and that was cute.
Ahmed Meehan in Calgary, Alberta, 80.
And now we have another hugely long note.
I don't know what this is doing.
Well, this is because he becomes a knight today, so we do read these notes.
Steve Webb, who was an OG godcaster from back in the early 2000s.
This donation puts me over the top for my knighthood, yay, accounting below.
John and Adam, it's a privilege to contribute a bit of treasure to the No Agenda cause, as this is a concrete way to say thanks to you folks for the truly important work you do for Gitmo Nation.
I've told you before, Adam, that you changed my life when you wrote that little Apple script that was the catalyst that made podcasting possible.
Because of that geeky action on your part, the course of my life definitely made a sharp trajectory shift.
As you know, podcasting became incredibly important in my life's work, and because of podcasting, I've had a successful voiceover career.
Ah!
Another life saved or created.
One of the gigs I got several years ago was a commission to record a very old translation of the Bible, which compelled me to write a book entitled, Web's Easy Bible Names Pronunciation Guide.
Yes, it is quite fun.
In and I give easy-to-use pronunciations for every name in the Bible.
There are nearly 7,600 entries.
It's been in print for nearly 10 years and I've received excellent reviews.
So as another way to say thank you, I'd like to make this offer.
Ah, here we go.
Always thinking on his feet, those Godcasters.
I'll make this offer.
My book is available at Amazon, but with no agenda producers, order it from my website, BibleNames.link, and use the promo code NASHOW. When they check out, they'll get a 16.5% discount, which is half of 33%.
I will donate another 16.5% of the sale to the show.
By the way, it's available in paperback, PDF, and MP3. Lastly, if I might be so bold, the 12th season of the Lifespring Family Audio Bible begins on September 1st.
This is the seven-day-a-week show where I read through the entire Bible in a year and give a brief commentary on each reading.
This is fun, actually, to listen to.
I've followed this in the past when he did this.
I invite noagenda producers to check it out at audiobible.link, and with one of the apps found at newpodcastapps.com, they can stream me some sats and boosts!
There we go.
I would like to be knighted as Sir OG Podcaster.
If it's not too much to ask at the round table, I'd like some fresh Maine lobster and filet mignon medium rare, please, accompanied with a wine...
Surf and turf!
Yes, do you...
Surf and turf.
Do you have a wine recommendation for him?
Well, for surf and turf, because you've got a combination of seafood and meat, I would recommend a fine Brut Rosé Champagne.
A Bollinger would be good.
Oh, Bollie.
Okay.
Bollinger.
Bollinger.
A year?
A vintage?
No, no, no.
Don't go.
No, it's too expensive.
It's just a night, after all.
Thank you very much, Steve.
We'll see you on the podium in a few moments from now.
Nice.

By the way, 76,000 names in the Bible?
Yeah, how about that?
Jeez.
Ezekiel Goodwin in Hurricane West Virginia.
And by the way, a lot of people name John in the Bible, so it's 7,600 individual names.
Yeah, that's what I would assume.
Yeah, crazy.
I don't know how much work it takes to pronounce John.
By the way, Ezekiel has a birthday thing for someone.
For his wife.

Just briefly, Ezekiel Goodwin, he did say to his wife, I love you more than words can say.
I want to make sure that message got there.
Steeler Grummel, he's looking for job karma.
I'm going to get that in a moment.
The reason why he accepted a position back in the airline industry after being furloughed when the pandemic hit, hoping the onboarding process is smooth.
Many people need jobs karma.
And, let's see, was that it?
Oh, yes.

Anne Dunev.
That's right.
We didn't have a note.
Thanks for reading my donation on the Sunday 15 August podcast.
Somehow my degree naturopath What's pronounced neuropath?
Oh, that's what you get from us.
I'm not sure what neuropath is, but if you would fix...
If it would fix crazy...
I think it would be a good degree to have, and I can think of a few people who might benefit.
I'm a humble, naturopathic practitioner with a post-doctorate in clinical nutrition.
Adam, I'm delighted to hear that you take Congaplex, part of my staple immune protocol, and one of the best ways I know how to stay safe.
Hey, listen, Doc.
I wish I had to stay safe.
Um...
We don't need no stinking poison jab when we have the natural immunity.
Love, Dr.
Anne Dunev.
Yes, indeed.
Not just Congoplex, but also Bacopa Complex.
And I went to the post office, the P.O. box.
When I came home, actually, the Sheboygan Bratwurst had arrived.
Did you get your Sheboygan Bratwurst?
Yes, I did.
Holy crap!
I still have to get a hold of Nemchek people because they will send me some too.
But you got from our producer?
Yeah.
He wants credit for that.
He said it was kind of expensive.
Okay.
I said that's fine.
But it came with meat sticks and all kinds of cool stuff.
Yeah, you can take credit for that.
I did it with the upcoming surprise with one of our producers up in Healdsburg.
Thank you to the No Agenda Shop guys for sending off the very handsome No Agenda Show coasters.
It was quite nice.
I didn't get any coasters.
Well, you know, what could I say?
Sorry.
We can probably get you coasters.
Yeah, here's the whole bratwurst thing.
Let me see.
Do I have all that?
There was a couple other things.
I got the Vermont...
Where is that note?
I got the Vermont maple syrup and Vermont...
No, not Vermont.
It was Kentucky.
Kentucky maple syrup?
Yeah, and Kentucky bourbon, I think.
14-year-old bourbon.
I didn't get any Kentucky maple syrup.
Well, maybe you're just not lovable enough.
I don't know.
I don't know what's going on with you.
Liam, no!
That was Sir Dodger.
No, I'm sorry.
It was from Vermont, not Kentucky.
Oh, it makes more sense.
I think it was a Vermont Kentucky and a Vermont maple syrup.
But he packaged this in a box, a beautiful box, with all kinds of pictures of the Nimitz and all kinds of references to the commander.
And he gave me, in this box, there's a slide rule from a commander from the U.S. Nimitz.
Oh, that's a collectible.
It's beautiful!
But there was no note.
Tina actually cut out his address, Sir Dodger, from the box I would have it, but there was no note.
The box itself was just beautiful.
We took pictures of it, posted it all.
So thank you very much.
I love going to the P.O. Box.
It's highly appreciated.
Thank you all for supporting the best podcast in the universe.

We've got the three-month-old Riley on deck and, of course, our OG podcaster, the Godcaster.
So let's get out some...
Here you go.
Ooh, that's an OG sword.
I like it.
Well, Raleigh Maverick Gruber, you can just sit there and drool, sit with your mom.
You can't quite climb up on the podium yet, but you'll appreciate it one day.
And Steve Webb, both of you have supported the No Agenda Show in the amount of $1,000 or more if you had some parents take care of it for you.
But I'm very proud to pronounce the KD as Sir OG Podcaster and Sir Raleigh Maverick Young Knight of the Enlightened.
For you, we've got...
Well, we've got sausage rolls and skeddy.
We've got lobster and filet mignon with a Bollinger champagne.
Don't let us have left off the hookers and blow and rent boys and chardonnay for this particular one.
So we still have breast milk and pablum.
Someone might like that ginger ale and gerbil, sparkling cider and escorts.
And eventually, our brand new knight here, we'll come to learn to love the taste of the mutton, and we'll love the nectar of the mead as Sir Riley Maverick grows in age, and we see him more often here at the Roundtable.
You can go to noagendanation.com slash rings.
Steve, you're going to love it.
I can't wait to see you at a meetup somewhere wearing that one.
And Riley, Sir Maverick, will grow into it, obviously.

Okay.
Um, I guess we're at ISOs.

What are we doing here?
Yeah, we should be killing this show.
It's too long.
It is a little long.
Good show, though.
Yeah, yeah, I'm happy.
I do have four ISOs.
Holy crap.

Well, mine are all, I think...
Good candidates?
Maybe.
Let me do mine first and then you do yours.

Actually, hold on.
Play Freedom, then screw your Freedom back-to-back.
Okay, well, let me just give you my ISOs, because that would work.
That would work.
Bring me to Corona, bitch!
Okay, I got that one.
I'm fully vaxxed, my friend.
Meh, meh, meh.
Maybe this one.
They've got our balls!
Oh, God, no.
Steve Gibson.
Okay, I think you're right.
Let me set these up.
So we've got...
Freedom, and then screw your freedom?
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, that means I'll just have to change the order of a couple things here, but that should make it flow really, really, really nicely.
Yeah, we gotta move, man.
The affiliates are pissed.
Pissed.
Coming up next on noagendastream.com.

We return on Sunday with another deconstruction just for you, by you, for you.
Remember us at dvorak.org slash na.
Until Sunday, everybody.
Adios, mofos!
And such.
Florida is COVID America's biggest mess.
Biggest mess.
biggest mess.
COVID America's biggest mess.
COVID America's biggest mess.
Yet Governor Ron DeSantis refuses to defend.
COVID America's biggest mess.
Schools in Palm Beach County today sent home more than 1,000 kids for possible exposure.
COVID America's biggest mess.
COVID-19 is the biggest mess.
My mission is to protect you.
People should know there is a virus.
It kills people.
And the only way we prevent it is to get vaccinated, to wear masks, to do social distancing, washing your hands all the time, and not just to think about, well, my freedom is being kind of disturbed here.
No.
Screw your freedom. .
Screw your freedom.
This is California.
Screw your freedom.
This is California.
Screw your freedom.
This is California.
Screw your freedom.
I am the hero, so shut up!
This is California.
Screw your freedom.
I don't really like you, right?
You brought me nothing but pain.
My freedom is being kind of disturbed here.
No.
No.
Screw your freedom.
This is California.
Screw your freedom.
This is California.
Screw your freedom.
This is California.
Screw your freedom.
Screw your freedom.
Hasta la vista.
This morning, terror among families in Kabul.
The first U.S. Marines arriving in Kabul to evacuate the embassy as the Taliban closes in on the capital.
As the Taliban take territory, they also gain strength.
Replenishing their ranks with Taliban prisoners they free along the way.
More Marine and Army units.
Our pressure is growing on the Biden administration to respond to that turmoil.
We cannot continue the cycle of the war.
Extending our military presence in Afghanistan, hoping to create ideal conditions.
Changing leadership here in the United States changes the picture worldwide.
The race to rescue American diplomats and other key personnel from the rapidly deteriorating security conditions in Kabul, Afghanistan.
It's about leadership, and look, there has been a restoration of leadership here on the part of the United States.
The Biden administration screwed us up beyond the least.
We lost more lives in Vietnam, but this debacle is more damaging to showing the failures of our institutions.
He assured Americans that Afghan forces could hold the line against the Taliban.
There's been some serious mismalculations made here.
How much damage is done?
We truly understand now that the emperor has no clothes.
As a matter of fact, we don't even know if he's wearing clothes right now.
He's playing dragon continuously, but the truth is, this did unfold more quickly than we had anticipated.
Afghans are thronging to Kabul's airport, desperate to get on planes and leave the country at any cost.
This is such a different kind of fight, the insurgency fight.
And just to expect that the Afghan army could just defend it, as if you're playing to have words that they need, it doesn't work that way.
The Biden administration is redefining the word in Kabul.
Anyone involved in the planning of this exit should be fired or court-martialed along with anyone who ever reported that the Afghan army was in any way ready for duty.
It's the wind of history...
That's the wind.
That's the wind of time.
You know, as the population who's in control, you know that the people are the politicians.
Once you get a power, you will never relinquish it.
You're about to open a pit of hell!
No!
Your children and your children's children will be subjugated!
They are begging you, and they are pouring through your veins.
You do not get a vaccine passport put on us.
No!
How many vaccines have you had?
Have you been a good little Nazi?
We shall not be our worst.
All of this is to watch us.
Hail Fauci!
The best podcast in the universe! .
Adios, mofo.
