	This needs to come out.
	Stop eating our dogs!
	Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak.
	It's Thursday, September 30th, 2021.
	This is your award-winning Get One Nation Media Assassination, episode 1386.
	This is no agenda.
	Softly adjusting my hardware and broadcasting live from the heart of Texas Hill Country, FEMA region number six.
	I'm a mess.
	Good morning, everybody.
	I'm Adam Curry.
	I'm Adam Curry.
	Wow.
	Well, from Northern Silicon Valley, as this effort just goes by, I'm John C. Dvorak.
	Total train wreck.
	No, no, the train went by fine.
	Oops, oops, oops, oops.
	Okay, there we go.
	Sorry.
	Oh, man.
	I need everyone's patience for just a second.
	New gear.
	I'm messing it all up.
	I had everything so perfectly rehearsed.
	Okay.
	Yeah.
	So you went out, I'm going to jump into this, you went out and got the new Tascam podcast special.
	Yes, the podcast.
	The P1. It's the Tascam Mixcast 4, actually.
	Oh, they had three before this.
	I guess, yeah.
	Nothing ever caught my eye until this one.
	It's very similar to the Rodecaster, which of course all is a derivative of the Podcaster Pro.
	Which is your steps back in your lips.
	Yeah.
	Because you're overjoyed.
	Yeah, I am.
	I'm totally jitty.
	Yeah, that was the original design that I came up with, with Sir Gene, and we tried to make that happen.
	And we have one device, which is no production, but we have one device.
	It was super fun.
	So I really wanted to try this out, and they came close.
	They came closer than the Rode guys.
	Well, you never got a Rode, did you?
	No, no.
	This one didn't come to me for free either, but I never wanted the Rode because they had no noise gate on the USB channel, which is the only way that I could get you to sound decent.
	What?
	Here's the thing that is so weird.
	When you record, it outputs, which is the way the chain is supposed to work, with the final compression and limiter after the end signal, so that you have a nice, smooth kind of, you know, if someone bounces up or down in the levels, it's going to sound nice and smooth on the recording.
	But you don't get that in your headphones.
	It's only on the actual recording.
	What?
	You don't actually know where your levels are.
	Can't you put a headphone jack somewhere between the real output and the recording?
	Yeah.
	No.
	It doesn't actually do that.
	But can't you do that yourself with a bunch of extra gear?
	No.
	See, the only thing that I'm thinking I could do is take the output from the line out and feed that into, of course, another device into some kind of compressor.
	Okay, I'll stop you because I know what you're going to say.
	The idea of these things...
	Is to eliminate the need for tons of different devices.
	And it's so close because I went from eight wires, I was able to get rid of an entire screen, I got rid of all kinds of USB cables.
	Beautiful.
	Only thing that's attached is a USB cable and one headphone jack cable and then the microphone and headphones.
	That's it.
	It's perfect.
	It's exactly what I wanted, but now I have to have another box to make it sound.
	Although, I tried it out with Moe, and the sound itself is pretty good.
	The recording sound itself.
	But it's so weird.
	It's like you don't get a good vibe, you know?
	I don't know how it sounds on your end.
	I'm sure it's not.
	Does it sound different?
	It's not as good.
	It's crisp, but it's not the big sound that you normally associate with an Adam Curry production.
	The recording will reflect that sound, but you can't get it while recording, which is just insane.
	Yeah, I know.
	Well, of course, I don't understand.
	There's obviously a missing piece of this puzzle, but I would assume that before they designed this thing, since it was for podcasting, I would make the assumption, because it makes an ass out of you and me, but I would make the assumption that someone from the engineering department at Tascam, big company.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	Would have called you and said, you know, you're like the podcasting guy.
	You're doing this 2.0 thing.
	Can you just listen, maybe give us a little feedback?
	We don't need a lot.
	We don't need a report.
	We don't need a big document.
	Maybe just say something.
	And then, so, did they do that?
	No.
	No, of course not.
	It doesn't make any sense because you would have worked for free.
	Of course I would.
	I would have loved to help them design.
	I'm baffled by this phenomenon.
	Well, part of it is because they still believe that podcasters all want to Do the big multi-track recording.
	Every track is recorded separately.
	And, oh, it's just fabulous.
	And you can tweak and arrange every little bit.
	But if you just want to get something on the air and boom, boom, boom.
	Oh, man.
	Difficult.
	But, you know, it's software, so they could upgrade it.
	They could fix it somewhere.
	Anyway, so Troll Room, thank you very much for being here, and producers, please run a recording on the stream, because in addition to reducing the gear, the workload is reduced because it has an onboard recorder, which is hardware.
	Oh, which you don't trust already.
	Of course I don't trust.
	Hey, man, this is the maiden voyage.
	Of course I don't trust it.
	Crazy stuff.
	Can't you run it?
	Hold on.
	Yes.
	Last question.
	Mm-hmm.
	If it is indeed.
	Mm-hmm.
	You can't run your own backup recording?
	Yeah, I could.
	Yourself?
	Yeah, I could run from the line out.
	From the line out, I could, of course.
	Okay, so you can.
	Yeah, but it's not...
	One other thing, and then I'll stop about it.
	The thing that is baffling to me, because I was very happy it has eight buttons and you can load up...
	Ooh, buttons!
	You can load up jingles the way I... Ooh, buttons!
	It has one of these, Dvorak, so that's a plus.
	I always like having the God voice.
	Yeah, so it has eight buttons.
	And you can program, you know, I think it's from 10 different memory banks.
	Doesn't the Rode have eight buttons too?
	Yes, it does.
	And so I'm like, okay.
	Why would they both have exactly eight buttons?
	Why not ten buttons?
	I agree.
	I would like to have 16.
	But okay, so they have eight buttons, and you can load up different memory banks.
	So I spent an inordinate amount of time yesterday loading up every bank.
	Here's the donation segment.
	Here's the opening segment.
	So I can run it all from this.
	But if you record directly to the built-in recorder, you can't switch between memory banks.
	That's only if you do the Phil Spector wall of sound recording all tracks at once.
	What?
	Yes!
	I'm telling you.
	Anyway, I'm going to make this work.
	I will figure it out because it's worth it.
	It's worth it for the form factor alone.
	And while I'm figuring it out...
	Now it's time for 3x3.
	Experiment by JCD. Comparing stories from ABC, CBS, and NBC. NBC. That's right, it's a 3x3.
	John C. Dvorak watches the three big networks for you on a Thursday morning so that you don't have to, and comes back with his report.
	What are you learning, John?
	What are you learning?
	Besides that you're choking to death, are you okay?
	You alright there?
	Yeah, early.
	Alright, so this was a crazy 3x3.
	You got to talk into the mic because now the sound...
	Man, I'm not even off axis by more than one half inch.
	Right, but you have to now do that just for me.
	Ugh!
	Alright, I'll just move the paper here.
	Alright, let's go with NBC. NBC had a special report about these three or four guys who had gotten brain implants because they were alcoholics.
	And so now they got this new deep brain device that they stuck in their brain.
	And oh, the staff of the NBC, oh, this is fantastic.
	They thought it was good?
	Oh, they thought it was fantastic.
	It's great because now nobody, they don't drink anymore and they're feeling okay.
	The guys, the stuff they said, like one guy says, every day feels like Christmas.
	And so...
	Really?
	That's pretty odd.
	Oh, every day feels like Christmas.
	This is great.
	This...
	We have to do more brain operations on any little ailment that anyone has to just dig into their brain and fix it.
	Wait a minute, who was this dude?
	Who was a part of this?
	Where'd they come from?
	What was the pitch?
	Why were they on?
	It was the staff that did it.
	I missed the very beginning, so I don't know what hospital it was, but there's some doctors who've decided that a lot of things where people have issues, and of course the Savannah and the rest of the crews, they have issues with...
	They're addictive.
	They're addicted to this, or they drink too much, and all this can be corrected with...
	And I'm thinking, wow, this goes right back to the 1930s, I think, when the lobotomy was like...
	Lobotomies were all the rage.
	They were given lobotomies, but you guys were doing them in Central Park, you know, with a big needle.
	They could put it right behind the eyeball and just clip.
	Wait a minute.
	Just like you could get a portrait drawn these days when you're in Central Park, you go to Central Park, sit down, they clip.
	Same thing.
	Yeah, exactly.
	And there was a line.
	Nothing.
	No.
	Yeah.
	A line of people volunteering to do this?
	Yeah, because it made you feel so much better.
	It cured all ills.
	Wow.
	And so, of course, it made all kinds of...
	There was a lot...
	One of the major issues with the lobotomized...
	And everyone in sales knows this trick, by the way.
	Yeah.
	A lobotomized person, who seemed very normal, would go up to a fire alarm thing that says, pull down.
	Mm-hmm.
	And they'd pull it down.
	Oh, it says, pull down.
	I'll do that.
	Boom.
	Yeah.
	Oh, so the lobotomized person takes all instructions extremely literally without really thinking it through?
	Yeah.
	Wow.
	Well, anyway, so this was a big deal, and everyone was giddy about it.
	Isn't this because of the Elon Musk idea of interfacing computers to your brain, and they, of course, think that's all super cool and rad?
	I think there's an element of that, but the sick thing was at the end where they thought this was good, too, by the way.
	The device that goes into the brain and also goes into some other part of your body to regulate it, it also sends data home saying how you're feeling all the time.
	And to your watch.
	So you know your watch will tell you how you're feeling at that very moment.
	That's coming.
	Wow.
	All right.
	You know, I was reading about...
	Did you see, by any chance, the Spartacus letter?
	We'll get to it later.
	Yeah, of course.
	Everybody saw that.
	What I found interesting in the Spartacus letter was the one guy...
	Well, you better explain what it is before you start...
	Okay.
	I don't want to interrupt your 3x3.
	No, the 3x3, believe me, is very interruptible.
	The Spartacus letter...
	Let me see where it is here.
	I'll just read the opening line.
	You can get it off of Zero Hedge.
	Yes, indeed.
	My name is Spartacus, and I've had enough.
	We've been forced to watch America and the free world spin into inexorable decline due to a bio-warfare attack.
	We, along with countless others, have been victimized and gaslit by propaganda and psychological warfare operations being conducted by an unelected, unaccountable elite against the American people and their allies.
	Now, this entire document, I think, is very thorough.
	A lot of it you will recognize listening to No Agenda.
	It goes to a lot of the technical details, and it looks like, oh yeah, I've read that.
	I have no idea if any of it is right or wrong.
	It's like 60 pages or something.
	It's huge.
	It's pretty detailed.
	And, but it also goes into the background of the lab versus the wet market.
	And in fact, the line that I liked is, this is not a conspiracy theory.
	This is a true criminal conspiracy.
	And they go on to explain it.
	And one of the guys who I guess was the subcontractor from Peter Daszak, Who are doing the gain-of-function research, which this Spartacus letter says, that is just nice language for bio-warfare research.
	The gain-of-function is nothing more, nothing less.
	And that may or may not be true.
	I like it, though.
	Yeah, I like that a lot.
	But that guy was connected to another organization who do all of the connecting of electrodes to the brain.
	And...
	Just with the whole mRNA, and they really put a nice little spin on that as to, you know, what kind of good or bad could this type of therapy do in conjunction with brain electrodes that are connected to your brain?
	And I think it's the same stuff Elon Musk is doing.
	These guys might actually be doing it for real instead of hooking up pigs and stuff.
	Well, this was a very disturbing NBC segment.
	Yes.
	And they're all, like I said, they're all jacked up about, ooh, you know, Savannah was, ah.
	Yes, Savannah.
	Now, we go to ABC. Big, big story.
	Uh-oh.
	Springsteen and John Mellencamp are teaming up.
	Yep.
	Wait a minute.
	They didn't have any shopping?
	I was looking for shopping.
	Never happened.
	No shopping.
	Then they went to James Bond.
	Daniel Craig is going to do Macbeth on Broadway produced by the people who produced the Bond movies, which I think has got to be hilarious.
	As far as I know, they have no Broadway experience.
	That should be a bust.
	He was James Bond, right, Craig?
	Yeah.
	No, he's in the last James Bond that just came out.
	Oh, okay.
	And so now he's going to do Broadway?
	Yeah, yeah.
	Is it going to be James Bond on Broadway?
	It's going to be Macbeth.
	Oh, Macbeth.
	My name is Macbeth.
	Every actor can do Macbeth.
	So then we go to, then they have, then they cut away to Michael Strahan.
	Wait a minute.
	What horrible job did they give to the black guy?
	Well, the black guy, no, instead they just decided, they're not giving him the good jobs anymore, they're ridiculing him.
	And he's putting up with it.
	I think they're trying to see how much he can put up with.
	Oh, man.
	Because they really give it to him.
	1999, where he was part of an NFL thing to sing.
	So all the NFL players that could sing, they were going to put some album together, country western, plus some pop.
	I don't know anything about this, but they showed a clip of Michael Strahan singing some country song.
	In kind of a Charlie Pride voice.
	Was it any good?
	Yeah!
	I thought it was like he has a really good voice, but no.
	They're laughing at him and pointing at him and laughing.
	Oh, what an idiot.
	Oh, really?
	Oh, my goodness.
	It was so racist.
	I couldn't believe it.
	Oh, I do.
	Of course.
	They're so colorblind.
	And then after the fact, you know, at least I think Stephanopoulos or somebody said, well, you know, you actually do have a pretty good voice.
	He said, well, I sound a lot better than I used to.
	And he, like, wimped out on the whole thing instead of saying, screw you, and throwing the mic down and stomping off, which is what he should have done.
	But he's making so much money.
	It's like...
	They're testing this guy.
	You know what, if you've ever seen the, I think it was the actor stage, actor studio, what is it, that PBS show?
	Yes, the actor studio.
	And I think it was, was it Martin Lawrence or was it, I think it was Martin Lawrence or maybe it was Chappelle who said, you know, the ultimate thing is they always want black men in Hollywood, they always want them in a dress.
	Oh no, that's Chappelle.
	That was Chappelle.
	Chappelle quit that original comedy show because of that.
	Yeah, because they wanted him in a dress.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Because I'm not wearing a dress.
	So have they put Strahan in a dress yet?
	Because it's coming.
	It's coming.
	It's either coming or it happened.
	Put Strahan in a dress.
	Is that a possible show title?
	Put Strahan in a dress!
	No, it's too long.
	Oh my goodness.
	That was classic ABC. You know, Disney, you know.
	It's also, it's like, I don't know, I've got mixed feelings about Disney.
	Okay, so CBS. Hold on a second.
	You should have mixed feelings about Disney.
	No, I have very mixed, but what I want to discuss is that how gay is Disney?
	Oh, yeah, super.
	And so I think there's some connection between Strahan, the macho football player, and that kind of gay undertone of Disney.
	Huh.
	I just can't put my finger on it.
	So CBS, we go on to CBS. And now we have Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
	Oh, he's still alive.
	Going on and on about how all the NBA... And I have a couple of clips I'm going to play after this discussion.
	Oh, yes, about the NBA vaccine controversy.
	We've got pro and cons, but the king has taken the backs.
	He's got the jab.
	Well, LeBron specifically said, and they did have this clip, that he's not going to tell people what to do.
	No.
	But Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who is probably, and I hate to say this because I think he's maybe the greatest basketball player outside of Bill Russell.
	I thought it was one of the most interesting to look at, for sure.
	Well, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is one of the greatest basketball players in history and ended up dead broke.
	Because Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and I hate to say this about this guy, since he went to UCLA, so he must be smart.
	He's got to be one of the dumbest guys in history, athletes, ever.
	And he's just a dummy.
	And he, like, lost all his – he made more money than anybody else in the NBA at the time and lost it all to some scammers who came along and says, hey, you can make a lot of money by putting all your investments in Bermuda.
	We've got some stocks down there.
	These days it's, hey, man, let's start our own crypto coin.
	Come on, man.
	Come on.
	Put some money in.
	It'll be good.
	So he lost everything.
	He was dead broke.
	And all these guys are very sympathetic to him.
	We got to find him jobs in movies and other things he wouldn't have ever had.
	Is that why he did Airplane?
	Because he was broke?
	I think so, yeah.
	Oh, I didn't realize that.
	He needed the money, literally.
	Oh, wow.
	So he comes out and he goes on about he thinks that people are dying in the streets of COVID and it's irresponsible for the NBA players not to get the jab, the shot.
	Mm-hmm.
	And he says they should be fired, removed, if they don't get the shot.
	And then he says it's also, I don't know what his connection was here, I didn't quite get it, but he says it was an extension, the shot is the extension of BLM. Really?
	Yeah, he says it's important because it's an extension of BLM. Oh, I understand.
	What he's trying to say is, there's only 30% of African Americans are fully vaccinated, and he knows that.
	But of course, those are only the Republican ones that are just vaccinated.
	Yeah.
	But the public push is to have figures that would inspire people who look like them to get vaxxed.
	And that's what Black Lives Matter was.
	It was about black lives.
	It was about protecting black lives.
	So there's your connection.
	Yeah, it's weak.
	Well, he says that they're ignorant and they're stupid.
	He went on and on about all these kinds of assertions.
	And so that brings me to these two clips I want to play.
	And I think that I can wrap the 3x3 with this particular thing.
	But I should mention they did play a...
	They had a couple other items that weren't that interesting.
	But I want to play these two.
	One of the NBA players who isn't taking the VACs, and this is Jonathan Isaac.
	He is a forward for the Orlando Magic.
	Oh, right.
	I saw him.
	I saw him.
	So you have to listen to him, though, because he's like, he should be a no-agenda listener.
	Yeah, and he's really calm.
	I really liked his, the whole vibe about him was cool.
	Well, there's two clips, two clips.
	He had the first clip where she didn't say anything about the fact that he's had COVID. He's not going to get the jab.
	I have COVID. What I need the jab for is what his comment is, the second one.
	But his first clip, which is long, but it's very interesting.
	It's like a deconstruction, very no-agenda-sounding thing.
	This is Jonathan Isaac Wand.
	Jonathan, Jamie Say, WKMG. I'm wondering if you can comment on the Rolling Stone article and your comments that appeared on that about you not getting a vaccination, why you don't want to get a vaccination, and were you misquoted in that article?
	I would start by saying that I was pretty badly misrepresented in the Rolling Stone article.
	And because of that, I can understand anyone who may say they don't transparently or overtly...
	Hold on.
	This guy sounds just like Denzel Washington.
	If you just close your eyes...
	I got it.
	I got it.
	I got it right away.
	He has that, right?
	No, he sounds just like Kenzel White.
	Totally.
	And because of that, I can understand anyone who may say they don't transparently or overtly trust the media.
	In a frustrated tweet yesterday, I had noted that true journalism was dying.
	And to that, I would say that I appreciate every single one of you, those that try their best to correctly share the thoughts, the ideas and the heart of the people that they're asking questions of.
	I'm not anti-vax.
	I'm not anti-medicine.
	I'm not anti-science.
	I didn't come to my current vaccination status by studying black history or watching Donald Trump press conferences.
	I have nothing but the utmost respect for every healthcare worker and person in Orlando and all across the world that have worked tirelessly to keep us safe.
	My mom has worked in healthcare for a really long time.
	I thank God I'm grateful that I live in a society where vaccines are possible and we can protect ourselves and have the means to protect ourselves in the first place.
	But with that being said, it is my belief that the vaccine status of every person should be their own choice and completely up to them without bullying, without being pressured or without being forced into doing so.
	I'm not ashamed to say that I'm uncomfortable with taking the vaccine at this time.
	I think that we're all different.
	We all come from different places.
	We've all had different experiences and hold dear to different beliefs.
	And what it is that you do with your body when it comes to putting medicine in there should be your choice, free of the ridicule and the opinion of others.
	Man, that was so good.
	He goes on and says, after this ran, the media took it this way.
	Jonathan Isaac cites Donald Trump!
	I was looking at these comments.
	Of course.
	Of course.
	So I guess the Rolling Stone made him look like an idiot or something.
	But whatever the case was, he doesn't sound like one, that's for sure.
	But let's listen to part two, because he doesn't really address that the vaccine is enough for this media that's asking him questions in the news conference.
	Jonathan, Josh Robbins with The Athletic.
	What is it about the vaccine that makes you...
	I would start with, I've had COVID in the past, and so our understanding of antibodies, of natural immunity has changed a great deal from the onset of the pandemic and is still evolving.
	I understand that the vaccine would help if you catch COVID and you'll be able to have less symptoms from contracting it.
	But with me, having COVID in the past and having antibodies with my current age group and physical fitness level, it's not necessarily a fear of mine.
	Taking the vaccine, like I said, it would decrease my chances of having a severe reaction, but it does open me up to the Albeit rare chance, but the possibility of having an adverse reaction to the vaccine itself.
	I don't believe that being unvaccinated means infected or being vaccinated means uninfected.
	You can still catch COVID with or with not having the vaccine.
	I would say, honestly, the craziness of it all in terms of not being able to say that it should be everybody's fair choice without being demeaned or talked crazy to doesn't make one comfortable to do what said person is telling them to do.
	Yeah, I would say that's a couple of the reasons that, you know, I would say I'm hesitant at this time, but at the end of the day, I don't feel that it is, you know, anyone's reason to come out and say, well, this is why or this is not why.
	It should just be their decision and, you know, loving your neighbors, not just loving those that agree with you or look like you or move in the same way that you do.
	It's, you know, loving those who don't.
	Man, it's so nice that they have that privilege.
	They can do that in the league.
	Well, they're trying to get rid of everybody.
	There's about five players, major players.
	And almost everyone's had COVID, it seems like, vaccinated or not.
	There's coaches, there's players.
	Everyone has to sit on the sidelines.
	They're all 95% vaccinated, I think.
	Yeah, most of them.
	The whole thing is nuts.
	I don't know what the big deal is.
	Well, the problem is not that, like in San Francisco, for example, we have this guy, Andrew Wiggins.
	And he is not going to take it.
	He's got, he says, religious reasons and he just doesn't want to take it.
	Right.
	Fine, some people don't want to take it.
	Some people don't like flying.
	And they take the train.
	Madden.
	Madden used to drive a bus.
	He's in a bus all the time.
	So what?
	That's his business.
	But San Francisco is the one that, no, you can't be in the building.
	Oh, you can't be in the building, right.
	Thank you, San Francisco.
	Because our health department says, no, you can't be even in the building, testing or no testing, no matter.
	Yeah.
	Of course, this is, to me, still a temporary thing.
	I don't believe this is going to continue forever.
	It seems to be falling apart in other countries, so that's the good news.
	I do have the Good Morning America ABC one-minute report on this NBA controversy.
	NBA superstar Kyrie Irving contends his vaccination status is his business.
	Irving, oh, he's a machine!
	The all-star Brooklyn Nets don't...
	How cool was that?
	When they talk about me when I'm dead, I just want to...
	We all remember the podfather, Adam Curry, and I just want them to immediately go to that clip.
	That's Marv Albert.
	That's who that announcer was.
	You've got to get Marv Albert out of retirement to say something.
	He's a machine!
	It's his business.
	Irving.
	Oh, he's a machine!
	The all-star Brooklyn Nets guard missed his team's in-person media day Monday, appearing instead via Zoom and repeatedly refused to discuss whether he's vaccinated or not.
	Honestly, I like to keep that stuff private.
	I just would love to just keep that private and handle it the right way.
	My team.
	Irving acknowledged he wasn't able to physically attend Media Day at the Barclays Center, which falls under New York City's executive order that requires people entering indoor arenas show they've had at least one dose of the COVID vaccine.
	There you go.
	And how does that make sense, that you can come in with one dose?
	I mean, everyone knows that you aren't fully vaccinated until you've had two doses, and if you're a special case, you need the third.
	But that's okay now?
	It's okay to just have one dose?
	They don't answer.
	I mean, I'm just saying.
	Rhetorically.
	Indoor arenas show they've had at least one dose of the COVID vaccine.
	With the season just weeks away, Irving could be forced to sit out the team's home games, which could deal a huge blow to the Nets' championship hopes.
	That's on Kyrie, and that's his personal decision.
	What he does is not on us to speculate what made it happen, but we trust in Kyrie.
	Though there's no league mandate, currently over 90% of NBA players are vaccinated.
	So, while that was taking place with...
	Are we done?
	Did we do all three?
	I'm sorry.
	Yeah, we did all three, right?
	Yeah, no, I'm good to go.
	With that, the NBA, I guess they still have some choice.
	They can make it be their own decision.
	Not so with the New York health system.
	No, hold on a second before you go with that.
	The problem is the NBA, yeah, they don't have a mandate, but they said the following, they made the following announcement.
	Any players that can't play a game in cities that don't allow unvaccinated people in the building, which includes San Francisco and New York, they will forfeit all the money that they would have made, which amounts to about $300,000 typically per player per game.
	They don't get paid.
	And so the players' union first was kind of against it, but I think the players' union, for some reason, buckled, and they went along with this.
	And so these players can lose half theirs, especially like Wiggins, who's in the San Francisco team.
	Half the games are in the San Francisco thing.
	He'd lose, I think, whatever his contract is, $20 million, but he'd lose $10 million.
	Yeah, that's a lot of money.
	It's a lot of money.
	So this is bull crap.
	Oh, we don't do what you want.
	Well, he could learn to code.
	Just a thought.
	Well, technically, you can make more money doing it.
	In New York City, the health system, as of Monday, right after Sunday show day, changed drastically.
	The new governor of New York, the Honorable Kathy Hochul, this is an interesting woman.
	I thought that she wouldn't be any fun for the show, but boy.
	She's great fun.
	She's a complete lunatic.
	Do I stand corrected?
	Let's just listen to this little ditty.
	And we'll be nation-leading with our...
	First of all, we'll be nation-leading.
	This woman is, and I looked her up, never had a regular job in her life.
	She's gone from university straight through to politics.
	And we'll be nation-leading with our mandate, which strikes at midnight tonight, whenever...
	Even this!
	Just thought, oh man, I have to stop this clip each time.
	It strikes at midnight tonight with like Cinderella.
	It just, it's so dramatic, this woman.
	Mandate, which strikes at midnight tonight when everyone is expected in a hospital in the state of New York or a healthcare facility to have been vaccinated.
	I will be signing an executive order to give me the emergency powers necessary to address the shortages where they occur.
	Okay, this is just something.
	I don't think a sentence like this belongs in any democracy.
	And that's what everyone's all, oh, our democracy.
	We have a republic.
	But okay, our democracy, our democracy.
	What she literally says...
	Is I just signed an executive order to give myself the power to do whatever I want.
	Have you ever heard?
	Play it again.
	I'm going to sign an executive order to give me the emergency powers necessary to address the shortages where they occur.
	That's going to allow me to...
	I'm going to sign an executive order to give me the power.
	That doesn't sound...
	That's great.
	That is a good catch.
	I've heard all this stuff that you're playing.
	I followed her and her, you know, come to Jesus moment with the vaccinations.
	Yeah, that's next.
	That's coming up next.
	Of course, of course, of course.
	But that, I missed that.
	But you're right.
	That's what she's doing.
	She's signing.
	This is what...
	Tin hat, what do you call them?
	Tin foil hat?
	Low-end dictators and small banana republics do.
	Right.
	She is like a...
	She is the worst.
	Now, that right now...
	I thought she was kind of funny, but now she's sick.
	She's a sick woman.
	She needs to be rousted.
	She'll look bald when we parade her through the streets.
	And walk her down the street bald.
	Signing an executive order to give me the emergency powers necessary to address these shortages where they occur.
	That's going to allow me to deploy the National Guard who are medically trained.
	Deploy people who've been retired, who may have had a license lapse.
	Bring in people from elsewhere.
	That is not my first position, though, my friends.
	My desire...
	Okay, this...
	Yeah, my friend.
	This is another thing.
	Who says this, my friends?
	I'm going to tell you now, my friends.
	Who says this?
	Who says my...
	We know there are other people...
	I couldn't put my finger on it.
	Who says...
	It's like John Kerry's...
	John Kerry says this.
	Mitt Romney talks like this.
	John Kerry says it.
	You're right.
	So she's in a weird milieu somehow.
	She's in some kind of weird-ass cult with this talk.
	And my friends, how about your constituents?
	How about my fellow citizens?
	My fellow citizens would be more appropriate.
	More appropriate.
	Bring in people from elsewhere.
	That is not my first position, though, my friends.
	My desire is to have the people who've been out there continue to work in their jobs, work in them safely.
	And to all the other health care workers who are vaccinated, they also deserve to know that the people they're working with will not get them sick.
	It's a patronizing thing.
	I've heard bosses do this.
	All right, my friend.
	You know, it's kind of like that.
	It's just...
	Word to the wise.
	But nothing, nothing beats this bit about the vaccine coming from God.
	I prayed a lot to God during this time.
	And you know what?
	God...
	By the way...
	Do we believe that?
	Do we know that she has a strong religious conviction?
	There's no knowledge of this.
	I couldn't find it on the wiki.
	She doesn't wear a cross.
	She wears a little pin that says vaxxed.
	I prayed a lot to God during this time.
	And you know what?
	God did answer our prayers.
	He made the smartest men and women, the scientists, the doctors, the researchers, he made them come up with a vaccine.
	That is from God to us.
	And we must say, thank you, God.
	Thank you.
	And I wear my vaccinated necklace all the time to say, I'm vaccinated.
	All of you.
	Yes, I know you're vaccinated.
	You're the smart ones.
	But you know there's people out there who aren't listening to God.
	They're the smart ones.
	I know you're vaccinated.
	They're the smart ones.
	You just insulted people who have issues or have immunity.
	Or people who have actually done some research or people who are smarter.
	Oh, yeah.
	They're the smart ones.
	We're the smarter ones.
	Thank you, John.
	I was viewing that all wrong.
	Yes, I know you're vaccinated.
	You're the smart ones.
	But you know there's people out there who aren't listening to God and what God wants.
	You know this.
	You know who they are.
	I need you to be my apostles.
	I need you to go out and talk about it and say we owe this to each other.
	Isn't it some kind of...
	Sacrilege to be...
	This is blasphemous.
	For her to say, now you need to be my apostles.
	If she's truly a believer...
	She is a blasphemer.
	Hello?
	Blasphemer.
	She's a blasphemer.
	Now the irony to this...
	The irony to this is that there's an association of atheists in New York where it's floated with atheists.
	I mean, atheism and New York, especially upstate.
	It's like Ebony and Ivers.
	But generally speaking, this is like the most atheistic state maybe anywhere.
	They're suing now because of this God demand for exemptions from the vaccine.
	Yeah.
	Yes, as they should.
	As they should.
	And I think they have a good case.
	Let's continue.
	I need you to be my apostles.
	I need you to go out and talk about it and say, we owe this to each other.
	We love each other.
	Jesus taught us to love one another.
	And how do you show that love?
	But to care about each other enough to say, please get vaccinated because I love you.
	I want you to live.
	I want our kids to be safe when they're in schools.
	Let me practice.
	John, John, please.
	Please get the vaccine.
	I love you.
	I want you to live.
	Please.
	Is it working?
	Live and find.
	Is it working?
	You want us to love one another.
	And how do you show that love?
	But to care about each other enough to say, please get vaccinated because I love you.
	I want you to live.
	I want our kids to be safe when they're in schools.
	I want you to be safe when you go to a doctor's office or to a hospital and are treated by somebody.
	You don't want to get the...
	Virus from them?
	You're already sick or you wouldn't be there.
	We have to solve this, my friends.
	My friends!
	I need every one of you.
	Help me.
	This is my friends thing.
	Seems to really get you.
	It's condescending.
	It's patronizing.
	She is the worst woman ever.
	And you're right.
	She's a godsend.
	She somehow has been presented to us as something else, a ridicule on this show.
	I was praying to God, and all I wanted was content.
	My friends, I was praying to God.
	We need more content, and God delivered.
	And that, I kind of believe.
	Virus from them?
	You're already sick or you wouldn't be there.
	We have to solve this, my friends.
	My friends.
	I need every one of you.
	I need you to let them know that this is how we can fight this pandemic, come back to normal, and then start talking about the real issues that we have to.
	Like what?
	Fighting systemic racial injustice, which exists today.
	I will take you on any date because I've seen it.
	I know it exists.
	And we are not going to have a blind eye to this ever again.
	What?
	She's seen it?
	She's seen racism?
	She knows it exists.
	Really?
	She lives in New York and she's seen racism?
	I don't know how that works.
	I can't believe that.
	That sounds so wrong.
	She should give examples.
	So this was kind of coordinated.
	Monday was the day for most hospital systems around the country where people were in forced vaccination mode.
	And from what I understand, somewhere between 80 and 100,000 people will no longer be working in the healthcare system.
	Yeah.
	And I wonder how well that's going to work out.
	It seems like they've been having some issues and might not have been the smartest thing unless you want to intentionally collapse something.
	And the same is going to happen with the educational system.
	We go back to New York.
	Overnight in New York City, a panel of judges clearing the way for the city's vaccine mandate for public school employees.
	The city's mayor giving employees until the end of Friday to get at least one dose.
	If you have not gotten that first dose by Friday, 5 o'clock, we will assume you are not coming to work on Monday and you will not be paid starting Monday.
	That's an assumption I wouldn't make.
	I'm sorry?
	So that's an assumption I wouldn't make.
	We're assuming, you know, if you don't get a shot, we're assuming you're not going to come to work.
	What if you do come to work?
	Huh?
	Yeah.
	Now, I have some proof of how the medical system works behind the scenes of how people really talk.
	When there's doctors and nurses, it doesn't surprise me.
	These people are completely insane.
	And it's not something that started with COVID. It's been going on for a long time.
	But now, I never really believed it.
	Oh, if you give someone a little bit of power, they'll take it and they'll run with it.
	Oh, absolute power of corruption.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	Well, this is what's going on.
	Five o'clock.
	We assume you are not coming to work on Monday and you will not be paid starting Monday.
	But some teachers in the state calling the mandate unfair.
	We taught your children during a pandemic.
	We went remote.
	We went digital.
	We don't want to lose our jobs over this.
	Sounds like she was from Staten Island, which, of course, is why they put her in, sounding like, you know, that's how Trump people sound now.
	We've been conditioned to believe that.
	And, of course, we also want to terrorize the children in New York.
	Dr.
	Ashton, we know some states were trying to say that some schools and some school districts couldn't even have their own masking mandates.
	But we're getting some new data just how important it could be to have those masks in place in all those schools.
	And really trying to take this issue about masking in the school setting out of the emotional realm and into the evidence-based realm.
	So, we do have some data out from the CDC. Oh, data.
	New data.
	All of a sudden, new data, everybody.
	It's amazing.
	New data.
	We have new masking data.
	Can you believe the new data?
	The evidence-based realm.
	So, we do have some data out from the CDC. In particular, they looked at what was going on in the state of Arizona because they went back to...
	I just thought of something interesting.
	Okay.
	You know, evidence-based is, I think, technically empirical, which is not the same as research-based.
	Evidence-based may actually be used as a weasel word.
	You think?
	Well, it's kind of the opposite of baseless without evidence.
	Evidence-based as opposed to research-based or scientifically proven.
	And by the way, nobody does scientifically proven because they won't do it.
	It's too much work.
	This is a good point.
	It can be research-based, conclusions based on research, but even evidence.
	Should we see evidence?
	It's evidence that goes to a jury to be determined by the jury.
	I'm sorry, what?
	Yeah, no, no, no.
	I'm talking with you.
	Yeah.
	Huh.
	So to say evidence-based is like, this is a weasel word.
	I never thought about it before, but now that I hear it, I guess one too many times.
	It's true.
	It's evidence-based, but that doesn't mean it's true.
	No, it doesn't mean it's true.
	It means you got evidence.
	It could be circumstantial evidence.
	Yeah, it's true.
	They might as well say circumstantial evidence says.
	Very good.
	Good catch.
	Circumstantial evidence is evidence.
	And into the evidence.
	So this is bullcrap.
	Sorry.
	Sorry.
	It is.
	A setting out of the emotional realm and into the evidence-based realm.
	So we do have some data out from the CDC. In particular, they looked at what was going on in the state of Arizona because they went back to school pretty early, so they're a little bit ahead of the rest of the country.
	They found that schools with no masks on students and staff, three and a half times more likely to have outbreaks.
	Another way of looking at that number, approximately 50 percent or a little more of outbreaks occurring in Arizona did occur in schools with no mask requirements.
	That is why the CDC from the beginning, certainly of this academic year, has been recommending what they're calling a layered approach.
	Masking, distancing, staying home when sick and vaccination if eligible.
	And of course, TJ, as you know, we should be hopefully getting some more information about vaccine in the 5 through 11 year old age.
	Oh yes, goody goody.
	They also do this.
	They did the percentage.
	Yes, you caught it.
	Three times more.
	That means if there was one, there could have been three.
	50% more means like there could have been, if there were three, there could have been another one.
	It's not even math based.
	No, it's just all percentages.
	It doesn't mean anything.
	These are meaningless terms.
	With no mask requirements.
	That is why the CDC, from the beginning, certainly of this academic year, has been recommending what they're calling a layered approach.
	Masking, distancing, staying home when sick, and vaccination if eligible.
	And of course, TJ, as you know, we should be hopefully getting some more information about vaccine in the 5-11 year old age group soon.
	That's so key.
	But yes, I mean, it seems like, and some places are saying, hey, the parents, you take responsibility, you want your kid to wear a mask, fine, but they don't want the mandates in place.
	But we have seen the evidence over a year and a half now.
	Oh, the evidence?
	No, we've seen evidence.
	Again, we've seen the evidence.
	Yeah, the evidence.
	Doesn't mean it's true.
	They never say anything for percentages, you know, this sort of thing.
	Three times as many doesn't mean anything.
	No, meaningless.
	It goes from one to four to one to six, two to six, you know.
	It's ridiculous.
	So there's this hospitalist, now that I no longer laugh at the term, now that I know what it means.
	A hospitalist is a doctor, usually.
	In upstate New York, this hospitalist, her name is Deborah Conrad, and she appeared on The High Wire with Del Bigtree.
	You know, that's the guy who used to produce the doctor's And other CBS medical programs.
	And she also showed up in a story on CBS mornings.
	And I'll play that.
	So listen to what the story is about her, and then we'll get into something she actually said and what her situation is and what she's looking at and what her story is.
	The unvaccinated are officially out of time at New York State's medical facilities.
	With 16% of the state's hospital workers not fully vaccinated, that means more than 83,000 are at risk of termination.
	Do you feel then it takes a mandate to get everybody vaccinated?
	I do think so.
	Stephen Corwin is president and CEO at New York Presbyterian Hospitals, one of the largest systems in the country.
	Before its own vaccination deadline last week, 30% of staff were unvaccinated.
	But after the deadline, less than 1% refused the shot and resigned.
	So out of 48,000 employees and affiliated physicians, we have less than 220 that have not chosen to get the vaccine.
	At Erie County Medical Center in Buffalo, about 5% of the staff, roughly 400 people, are unvaccinated and on leave.
	Hospital President and CEO Tom Quatrochi.
	Why do we have British guys doing our CBS News in the morning about New York?
	Do you understand that?
	Well, you're the one that has the theory about it, and I agree with it.
	What, that they're better than us?
	They're more...
	It sounds more official.
	They seem more informed.
	They seem more intelligent.
	Yeah.
	They have this air about them.
	Air.
	Air.
	A lot of air.
	We stopped a lot of inpatient surgeries.
	We stopped...
	Some of our outpatient visits.
	We stopped ICU medical transfers from other referring rural hospitals.
	We've asked for more time and to work on strategies with the state to ensure that as many people as possible get vaccinated.
	At a press conference Monday, Governor Kathy Hochul announced plans to send National Guard troops to short-staffed hospitals like ECMC. I'm wearing the same exact PPE I've worn the whole pandemic.
	And it's always kept myself and patients safe.
	Why is it change?
	Deborah Conrad is a nurse in Western New York suing the state over its vaccine mandate.
	She's still uncomfortable with getting the shot.
	Are you prepared to lose your job?
	A career that I've loved for almost 20 years, I am prepared.
	So, a little more than just suing the state, as it turns out, So she works in a relatively small hospital, 20 to 30 doctors, and she was researching the adverse effects of vaccination because she saw people coming in one or two days after their second jab,
	dying of heart attack, full-on sepsis, cancers, and this is all in about an hour-long interview that is in the show notes.
	And the way you heard her talk, she's very nice, and she's really like a very professional young woman, and she just wants to do her job right.
	And then she stumbled across this thing called VAERS, the Vaccine Adverse Event Reaction System.
	And she had never heard of it.
	She did not know about it.
	The CDC, the CDC and FDA did not, as she continuously says, have any education for anybody.
	She also then found out that it is a legal requirement by law, if you're a And you'll hear them talk about providers because no longer are they doctors.
	It's a provider.
	A provider provides you.
	A provider provides you with the medication, in this case, injected directly into your arm.
	It is the provider's obligation legally to report any...
	Adverse responses after vaccination, and it can be...
	If you think it's three months later, then you can still do that.
	So she finds out about this database.
	She's never heard of it.
	She said, okay, I'm going to put my patients in here.
	And she goes through the whole process.
	It's quite laborious.
	It takes a lot of time.
	You need a lot of information about the patient's medical history.
	And as it turns out, once you do that, the people at the VAERS database, they seem to be quite respectable.
	She said, oh, they call right away.
	I got case numbers.
	But they too, they're like, no, no one's reporting.
	They're just, the people are not reporting because mainly they don't know about it.
	They don't have time for it.
	And they don't even believe a lot of these things are adverse events.
	So she volunteered at her hospital specifically.
	She said, you know what?
	Why don't I just do this?
	I've got a week off and I can do this on my weekends.
	I can catch up on some of the reports.
	So just give me your reports.
	And here she is talking about that.
	An obligation?
	A law to fill out these VAERS reports?
	Yes, very much.
	And I actually went to my leadership and talked about it.
	And I said, you know, is anybody aware of this?
	We need to start doing this.
	And of course, because it is such an involved process, nobody really wants to do it.
	We don't have the time.
	There's no time in your day to do it.
	So they kind of came back at me and said, you know what, Deb, if you want to take this on, that's okay.
	Go ahead.
	Go ahead and start reporting to VAERS. And here I'm thinking I'm just taking on a couple of patients here and there.
	Meaning like I'll give you some of the cases I think are like vaccine injury.
	I don't have time for it, but if you really want to do it.
	Exactly.
	I kind of volunteered to do this job because I felt it was just...
	It's a little tiny side job.
	Yeah, because it's important, right?
	I recognize the importance of it right away.
	We need to do this.
	And so what I did was I put envelopes in our emergency room in our fast track.
	Because that's kind of where you're going to see these patients first.
	And I told the providers, hey, put any patients you think may have something to do with it or you're not sure.
	Just put them in there.
	I'll review the cases and I'll start reporting.
	And I did the same thing to many of my colleagues that I work with.
	Not all of my colleagues agreed with me because they really didn't want to even believe that these vaccines could even potentially cause any problems.
	Plus, we didn't even know what problems we're supposed to be looking for.
	So I had a lot of my colleagues not really give me reports, but a lot that did.
	But like I said, this volunteer position turned into my entire week off.
	That's all I was doing.
	So a lot more in the adverse reaction sphere than you would expect.
	And she continues to do this, and then she was emailing her colleagues.
	She is a leader within the organization, and she was telling, okay, you should really be doing this, but you can put in the envelope.
	I'll take care of it, make sure everyone else knows.
	And then she gets the call from management, and she recorded that call.
	New York is a one-side call state, so it's legal.
	And she recorded this call and, I mean, it's like HR from hell.
	It's almost...
	Well, we can stop this any time, but I think every single second of it just shows you exactly how true people on the work floor, the people who are dealing with the patients, are told how to be, how to manage, what to do, when to shut up by the healthcare system.
	I know you had sent out an email to some folks this morning, and so I wanted to make sure we had an opportunity to talk about this sooner versus later.
	You know you're in trouble when you get that call, right?
	Sooner versus later.
	You know, I, listen, I know you're, I absolutely understand your concerns about the vaccine.
	And I absolutely believe that your heart is in the right place with, you know, with wanting to make sure that we are doing our due diligence and reporting the adverse events.
	That said, the email that went out this morning really needed to be discussed, but I think that we really need to make sure that we're providing a This
	is interesting.
	So this is a system that the hospital was not using.
	None of the doctors knew about it or the nurses, maybe one or two, but this one knew it.
	This one got into it.
	This one started reporting.
	And now, oh, well, there's a...
	What did it say?
	Her managers were saying, oh, there's a risk of us underreporting or overreporting.
	We want to be just the way everyone else is.
	We don't want to stick out like a sore thumb.
	Exactly.
	We need to make sure that that's also in alignment with what...
	What our health system is asking us to do.
	There's a risk to the organization from a perspective of both under-reporting and over-reporting.
	A risk to the organization, no less.
	I like that.
	So how do we make sure that we're sending the right message out to our providers and that they have the information that they need to be doing this correctly?
	Yeah.
	But I think we have to be thinking a little bit more about the process and what sort of expected here.
	So, the problem might be that we're not the same as all the other hospitals in the system.
	We're over-reporting.
	So, yeah, Deb, we're probably going to have to do something here.
	From what our risk team is telling us.
	The risk team.
	What?
	The risk team.
	What?
	The risk team.
	The risk team.
	Oh, yeah.
	- Yeah, the risk team. - The process and what sort of expected here.
	From what our risk team is telling us is that, really, you can only be reporting on the patients that you are providing direct care for.
	And so you cannot, and I know you've been volunteering and trying to be helpful, but we need you to kind of dial it back and focus on the patients.
	Dial it back.
	I mean, come on.
	We need you to dial it back.
	You know it's coming.
	The accusation is coming.
	That you're providing direct care for.
	And so you cannot, and I know you've been, you know, like volunteering and trying to be helpful, but we need you to kind of dial it back and focus on the patients that you are directly responsible for.
	And then if folks do reach out to you because you've been saying, hey, reach out to me, they need to be directed to VAERS and they need to do the process themselves for the patients that they think need a report they need to be directed to VAERS and they need to I have been telling them to do it and they don't do it.
	The reason I took this on is because nobody else wants this response.
	I mean, it's brutal because you then will be getting phone calls from the CDC every single day as a result.
	I mean, the FDA, you know, really is the problem here because they did not advise hospital systems what we're supposed to be doing.
	But like I said, I brought this up back in February and I see no response.
	I mean, that's my frustration.
	We are not doing these patients a service.
	And again, the FDA, they did not tell us, and they still will not tell me, what conditions are we supposed to be reporting?
	They are vague.
	They don't know because they never got the clinical trials.
	They never did them.
	We are the clinical trials.
	Let's face it.
	Okay.
	All right.
	So at this point, John, you're the HR lady.
	What direction do we start going now when you hear this pushback?
	Wow.
	The problem is I can play act a little bit, but this one is a tough one because you have to be an incredible douchebag in the first place and a corporate shill to really pull this one off.
	So I have no idea how she's going to react to that, but you have to push back.
	I don't want us to go down any kind of rabbit hole here, but I think the thing we have...
	We bring in the rabbit hole right away?
	So, what rabbit hole did she just say?
	She said, we don't even know what...
	I mean, it's a real complaint.
	We don't know what to look for.
	The CDC has given us no information.
	They don't have the clinical trials.
	The FDA. I'm sorry.
	The FDA has given us no information.
	What are we supposed to do?
	And what comes back is, let's not go down the rabbit hole.
	They never did them.
	We are the clinical trial.
	That's basic.
	I don't want us to go down any kind of rabbit hole here, but I think the thing we have to be like...
	Clear about, and I think, and I'm just going to be frank with you because that's the only way I know how to be done, but I will tell you in reading, you know, in reading the few emails that you sent me and then in reading the email that went out to the provider, it does come across a bit very vaccine, I say very, but it comes out quite, it comes out quite Almost anti-vaccine.
	There it is!
	You are an anti-vaxxer!
	It comes out...
	How should I say it?
	I mean, very...
	I'll just say it, Deb.
	You know me, I'm honest.
	It comes across as very anti-vaccine.
	Comes out quite...
	Almost anti-vaccine, right?
	And, you know, clearly as an organization, as a health system, right?
	And as, you know, as an organization that's working on following CDC guidelines and following the guidance of the Department of Health, we are very much advocating We're very much working on, you know, there's tons of efforts out there to try to reduce vaccine hesitancy.
	I have some concerns, Deb, that the tone that you have with this a little bit is certainly being felt on the floor, right, and being felt by your colleagues.
	A little bit careful about that, right?
	You know, I support your mission and goal of wanting to make sure that we are following the law and that we are reporting adverse events.
	But I also want to make sure that as a leader in the organization and as a provider within the organization that you understand we want people to get the vaccine.
	Right?
	We want people to understand that, on the whole, this is a very safe vaccine.
	Right?
	And that the science supports that.
	I appreciate that.
	I do.
	But I can't understand why, as a whole, you know, in the world, people are acting like everything is grand.
	It's not.
	It's clearly not.
	Uh-oh.
	I think we may have to agree to disagree on sort of what's happening, you know, kind of.
	So she says...
	But yeah, on a whole, look at what's happening, what's going on in the whole world, these vaccines.
	And the answer is, well, I think we'll have to agree to disagree.
	Why, as a whole, you know, in the world, people are acting like everything is grand.
	It's not.
	It's clearly not.
	I think we may have to agree to disagree on sort of what's happening, you know, kind of globally with the vaccine.
	I do think that we're seeing Yes, just like other vaccines, there are folks who are going to be negatively impacted, but certainly on the whole, we've seen a Tremendous benefit to the vaccine.
	You and I are not individual providers.
	We're employed providers.
	We tow the company line.
	That's part of our responsibility.
	There it is.
	We tow the company line.
	That's part of our responsibility.
	It's part of the Hippocratic Oath.
	...impacted, but certainly on the whole, we've seen, you know, a...
	Tremendous benefit to the vaccine.
	You and I are not individual providers.
	We're employed providers.
	We tow the company line.
	That's part of our responsibility is to be supporting the missions of the organization.
	There you go.
	You thought you were helping people.
	No, no, no, no, no.
	Part of your responsibility is to tow the company line.
	Profit-oriented healthcare industry at this point in time.
	Now, the real issue here, the doctor who wrote the note and was doing the right thing by getting all these reports in the VAERS database, she made the error, which is something that everyone would normally do if you're not trained.
	And I'm going to kind of mention what happened to me.
	Oh, okay.
	When I was at the Air Pollution District, we had the opportunity.
	I always, always take seminars.
	I'm a big fan of these things.
	I took a one-day seminar on memo writing.
	It was called CYA 101?
	No, but you could get your CYA information out of this memo writing class.
	It was a whole day of how to write a memo, which seems like a stupid day off.
	But no, to this day, I can write some of the greatest memos you've ever read.
	An outside-of-government writer who's also been trained in writing memos.
	This woman did not know how to write this memo properly that she sent out to her email.
	It should have been written in the form of a memo and should have had all the disclaimers at the beginning about how great the vaccination is and how we're not trying to do anything.
	She could have had the whole thing put together in a package in such a way that she would have never gotten any kickback whatsoever.
	But would she have achieved anything?
	Yes, she would have been able to continue with this idea of filling the VARS database and what would have happened that would be even better.
	If it was done correctly, it would have gone out like a virus and hit all the other hospitals, so none of the hospitals would have shown any indication of reporting more or less than the average.
	Ah, right, right.
	It could have worked out, but because she was panicking...
	No, no.
	It's because she wasn't thinking about the organization.
	She's only thinking about patients.
	She wasn't thinking right.
	Well, no.
	She's not thinking right.
	It's a very endearing lady.
	You can still get the job done.
	You can still get the job done within these large organizations correctly and not get the blowback that she got and end up with her tit in a ringer.
	Are there some other tips you can give the producers when it comes to important memo writing?
	One of the main things about memo writing is you always open the memo.
	For one thing, they have to be formally formatted.
	They have to be formatted as a memo.
	Is that a template in Word?
	I never saw one, but there might be.
	Okay, I'm just saying.
	This is exit strategy time.
	There should be a no-agenda memo template.
	My only tip is going to be the following.
	The opening of all memos has to be extremely complimentary and kind of a rundown of how great everything is.
	Oh, really?
	Yeah, you open up with how fabulous everything is.
	And it's usually a short three-sentence paragraph, maybe two.
	And then from there, you go on to your grousing.
	The only memos I ever wrote started like this.
	To memorialize our conversation.
	That's the boss CYA note.
	To memorialize our conversation, where I told you you would no longer be reporting into the VAERS database.
	Actually, technically, a CYA note, which I've done.
	In fact, I saved my job once from doing one, and it was on accident.
	Okay, do tell.
	A CYA note is to constantly be pointing out stuff in writing.
	Uh, issues that you have with something that doesn't work or something that you didn't get any feedback from someone.
	Just, just little bitty things.
	Uh-huh.
	And you, and you, you put a string of those out, uh, asking for help.
	And what happened to me once was that, uh, I was not, some product I was inspecting when I was an inspector at Trailmobile.
	It was going out improperly.
	Because it couldn't be fixed.
	It was unfixable.
	The design of this product made for Pacific Far East or some company.
	It was a cargo container that was made out of fiberglass.
	It just wasn't going to work.
	And I immediately sent some notes in about it.
	And I never got any feedback.
	It went on for months until the final inspectors started catching these things.
	And I got called to the carpet for these things.
	You had your memos.
	I said, well, I sent it.
	Look at this.
	Yeah, I had my memos.
	And then, boom, I was back on the job.
	It was instant.
	Somebody else got fired.
	Of course.
	Someone bit the bullet for that one.
	Oh my.
	Anyway, so the medical system is clearly commercialized to a degree where the Hippocratic Oath is just a part of the responsibility.
	It's not the overarching thing.
	It's just a part of it.
	Corporate responsibilities always supersedes.
	Environmental social governance.
	Let's do what's good for the corporate structure, for the toe of the company line.
	So...
	Now we move on to boosters, so we can just power through this.
	The president got his third shot, his booster.
	What needs to be answered is why the president did this on a set, on a soundstage.
	But it's made to look like the White House from the inside with a fake backdrop outside.
	Oh, see, I didn't know this.
	Oh, my goodness.
	There's a picture.
	And the reporters are right there.
	You can see the side of the stage.
	It was a stage.
	It was a sound stage.
	It had lights, everything.
	And it's not a room.
	I don't know if it's a replica of a room in the White House.
	It kind of looks like it should be, but...
	Yeah, there's been a lot of this going on.
	What's up with that?
	The thing with the two little tables I talked about in the last show or the show before, that kind of set with a big screen.
	It's like Biden doesn't want to go into the White House.
	That's the setting.
	That's the one.
	That's the stage they're using.
	What I don't know is, is it in the White House or is it in Delaware?
	I have a feeling it's in Delaware.
	It's in the Eisenhower room, I'm told.
	Oh.
	But why?
	I don't think he wants to go into the Oval Office because he knows it's a bug.
	Because Obama's sitting there, that's why.
	Obama would kick him out.
	But I think the thing is bugged.
	It's completely so bugged that they can't get the bugs out.
	No, no.
	I've never seen the necessity for a set inside the actual White House where you can film stuff.
	You know, there's tons of rooms.
	And it's historically an interesting building.
	And, you know, I hope the First Lady redecorated.
	You know, you don't do a set.
	Maybe Beelzebub is sitting in the Oval Office.
	Yeah.
	That's more likely than Obama, actually.
	Anyway, so this decision, we know the FDA panel of experts said, no, we shouldn't really be doing it.
	Just any old buddy, we shouldn't really be doing that.
	And then that was overruled by CDC Director Walensky, who actually has some thoughts about who should really make these decisions.
	Here, I'm going to make a really controversial...
	I'm sorry, this is Leanna Nguyen.
	I get confused.
	Liana Nguyen, who is now going to explain what she thinks, how she thinks it should work.
	Here I'm going to make a really controversial statement, which is that I don't think that it should actually be up to the CDC or FDA to even be making these judgment calls.
	I think at the end of the day, it should be up to the White House.
	Because ultimately, this is a policy decision based on the values of the American people.
	The science is the science.
	Different people are going to interpret the science differently.
	And when it comes to policy, that policy should be made by our elected leaders, not by scientists.
	Wow.
	My head is exploding.
	Okay, I can kind of understand that with the Biden administration, but you're saying that should even have been true from 2016 to 2020?
	Let the White House make the policy decision?
	That was Guy Kawasaki.
	He had a long, he got on for a full interview as well worth listening to.
	How he just hates Trump?
	Oh yeah.
	With all his body and soul.
	That's all he could do.
	He could only bring it back to that.
	But listen to what she says.
	I think the president should do this.
	Really?
	I mean, then why don't we just have every governor of every state make these determinations?
	I mean, come on.
	How about no one decides this?
	There's a thought for you.
	Nobody.
	Well, what's interesting is that he really likes the idea of deferring to the technocrats and having them do the decision-making.
	Oh, yeah.
	The providers.
	Classic Silicon Valley myopia.
	People who have never read the Technological Society, for example.
	Yeah.
	By Jacques Elluel, which warns about the fact that Western societies are going to be, predictably, taken over by technocrats.
	They use that as an instruction manual.
	Seriously.
	It's going to be taken over by technocrats, which is already underway.
	I mean, the EPA writes their own rules and regulations.
	There's not the legislatures that are supposed to do it.
	They're supposed to write the laws, but the laws have long since been handed over to these agencies.
	Lawmaking has been handed over to the agencies, and they make the laws.
	And they tow the corporate line within the agencies.
	It's beautiful.
	So here's our CDC director giving us the rundown on CBS Face the Nation, where she was being grilled.
	Grilled.
	With softballs.
	So when you are talking about the formulation of the vaccine, you're saying the second and the third dose are the same thing.
	Does that change as the virus continues to mutate?
	Should we all be prepared that we all will need to go get boosters every single year?
	I want to emphasize that our goal right now is to stay ahead of the virus.
	We want to boost now so we don't end up in a vulnerable place.
	But your question is an important one, and it's one we don't necessarily have the answer for yet.
	We are working to stay ahead of the virus.
	We will see if we can get the amount of transmission down in this country and truly around the world, which we are also working to do, then we are anticipating and hoping that we will not have more mutations that will require more boosting in the future.
	Yeah, baby.
	Every year.
	It'll be every year.
	It's going to be so groovy.
	You know what?
	They already have the name for the last variant.
	Oh, what is it?
	Omega.
	Communism.
	Okay.
	I walked into that.
	I knew the answer to that.
	It came too late.
	And, of course, the big question, the only thing we need to know when we hit the end of September, it's what the United States, what America revolves around.
	Should kids go trick-or-treating on Halloween?
	Is it safe?
	Is it safe?
	Oh, gosh.
	They're masked up!
	Hey, yeah, now there you're talking.
	Yeah, they're masked up.
	What's your problem?
	They should be totally safe.
	Should kids go trick-or-treating on Halloween?
	Is it safe?
	Oh, gosh, I certainly hope so.
	If you're able to be outdoors, absolutely limit crowds.
	I wouldn't necessarily go to a crowded Halloween party, but I think that we should be able to let our kids go trick-or-treating in small groups, and I hope that we can do that this year.
	No, you don't.
	I'm a believer.
	I don't think they want that.
	They don't want any of that to happen.
	Did you see the Pfizer guy with Stephanopoulos?
	No, I missed him.
	Yeah, the Israeli guy?
	So he's basically doing a quarterly...
	What is it?
	Oh, it's September.
	Is the quarter up?
	You know, everyone has their...
	Is that the end of the quarter?
	Yeah.
	But for Pfizer, specifically, I want...
	I don't know when Pfizer's quarterlies come in.
	I mean, they come in...
	It all varies by a couple of weeks.
	I mean, why else would the guy appear other than to do a sales job or an investor...
	That's all he does.
	He's on everything.
	Investor relations job.
	Yes, this is investor relations the way I see it.
	That's what it is, of course.
	Oh, this is not Pfizer.
	This is the Moderna guy.
	Is it the Moderna guy?
	Wait a minute.
	Albert Bourla?
	I'm confused.
	Hold on.
	Moderna's CEO said this week that the pandemic is on course to be over.
	Yeah, right.
	He's talking to the Pfizer guy.
	Moderna's CEO said this week.
	No, he's setting up the question.
	He says, your competitor, I mean, he could do this on CNBC, really.
	So, Moderna, your competitor over there whose stock price is on fire, what's wrong with you?
	Moderna's CEO said this week that the pandemic is on course to be over in about a year.
	Do you agree with that?
	I agree that within a year, I think we will be able to come back to normal life.
	I don't think that this means that variants will not continue coming, and I don't think that this means that we should be able to live our lives without having a new...
	Without having vaccinations, basically.
	But that, again, remains to be seen.
	The most likely scenario for me, it is that because the virus is spread all over the world, that we will continue seeing new variants that are coming out, and also we will have vaccines that will last at least a year.
	And I think the most likely scenario is annual revaccinations.
	But we don't know, really.
	We need to wait and see the date.
	Hey, our product will be really good next year.
	It'll last for a year.
	This was supposed to be, like, forever.
	It was supposed to be forever.
	I can't listen to that guy because that accent is so screwy.
	Well, it's an evil dictator, like a Dr.
	Evil-type voice.
	Yeah, it's got some sort of...
	It's a very strange sound.
	I should mention that the train is going by the daily...
	I don't know how many of these, maybe two or three of these go by a day.
	The massive, massive...
	150 car, each with two containers, coming out of the Oakland Port train with two engines lugging in the front and two more engines in the middle.
	It just started like five minutes ago.
	It's still going by.
	I've got to get a camera down there and film this thing because no one can believe how long this thing is.
	Well, it just ended.
	That's what she said.
	Let's go down.
	Let me see.
	Was there anything else on boosters or mandates that you had?
	Yeah, I got a bunch of COVID stuff.
	Oh, crappy.
	Let's do it.
	Because CBS seems to be the one that had the On the 3x3, they had Abdul-Jabbar on there going on about the basketball and the rest.
	And CBS is really on a tear to do stuff.
	So here's four shorties.
	One's a little longer.
	One's only seven seconds.
	A special report they did in yesterday's CBS Evening News with Nora, who just looks stern.
	She looks like a horrible, stern woman.
	And she can barely crack a smile when she does.
	It's like, oh, she...
	Because I know they're telling her to smile more, but she can't do it.
	It's just hard.
	It's not easy for her.
	So she goes on.
	This report, you've got to listen to the first 17 seconds.
	And it just...
	There's commentary that's needed, so I'll have to go on after you play this first clip.
	In another big development, YouTube says it is now banning users who spread vaccine misinformation, and that includes anti-vaccine activist Robert Kennedy Jr.
	But tonight, our reporting on the pandemic takes us to an overrun hospital in Montana, where CBS's Meg Oliver got rare access.
	Such a mischaracterization of Kennedy Jr., The only thing he wanted is no mercury in vaccines.
	He's not a known anti-vaxxer.
	You lie, CBS! You lie!
	Of course they lie, but the thing is, at the end of this, when they introduced the segment, she says, we got rare access.
	To who?
	Who are you kidding, lady?
	Every network and every local station has got access and they're in these hospitals because they have to have the report about the guy in his deathbed wishing they got the vaccine.
	Oh, that's what she was promoting?
	Rare access to the hospital?
	Play the end of the clip again.
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	Why do I have the next one set up?
	In another big development, YouTube says it is now banning users who spread vaccine misinformation, and that includes anti-vaccine optimist Robert Kennedy Jr.
	But tonight, our reporting on the pandemic takes us to an overrun hospital in Montana, where CBS's Meg Oliver got...
	Okay, I got it.
	Rare access for the overrun hospital in Montana.
	Overrun.
	It's overrun.
	With mice.
	Play the end.
	Again?
	Well, you didn't play it.
	You cut it off with overrun.
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	I didn't know you wanted that.
	Where CBS's Meg Oliver got rare access.
	Yeah.
	And she emphasizes rare.
	Yeah.
	She got rare access.
	Okay, so we know this is bullshit right away, because rare access is bullshit.
	It's almost like, alert, alert, alert, this is going to be, uh-uh.
	Bullshit!
	And so now we go right into a non sequitur right off at the beginning of the report.
	So what's the problem?
	Why are you seeing another surge?
	What we're seeing right now is 80% of the COVID patients we have are unvaccinated.
	No!
	80?
	Yeah, well, that's what she said.
	But did you listen to the structure of what they put out there?
	Let's listen to it again.
	Hold on.
	The non sequitur.
	So what's the problem?
	Why are you seeing another surge?
	What we're seeing right now is 80% of the COVID patients we have are unvaccinated.
	Oh, wow, good catch.
	So why is there a surge answer?
	Because 80% of the people are unvaccinated.
	No, she didn't even say that.
	She didn't even say because.
	No, no, she just said.
	Oh, really?
	Let's listen again.
	So what's the problem?
	Why are you seeing another surge?
	What we're seeing right now is 80% of the COVID patients we have are unvaccinated.
	Yeah, they're slick.
	Do you think that's intentional?
	Are they really that?
	Yeah.
	It must be all scripted.
	Yeah, of course.
	Well, the worst part about it is because when I deconstruct these things, especially this particular report, it's loaded with this kind of, so Adam, it's beyond, are you still beating your wife?
	It's like, why is there a surge?
	She doesn't even say because of any reason.
	She just says, and by the way.
	Yeah, there's something else.
	Yeah.
	So this is CBS at its absolute best doing propaganda to get people vaccinated.
	And then, of course, everything is now predictable.
	They go into the hospital.
	It's not like it's hectic in there, by the way.
	But it's, you know, it's not a...
	You'll hear a bunch of it.
	Let's play the third clip, which is a little longer.
	Was that a live toss?
	Or do you think that was edited?
	It was edited.
	Oh, okay.
	So that's how they edited it, which makes it even funnier.
	I got it.
	Okay, so it wasn't scripted.
	They took those pieces, put them together.
	Okay, here's your next clip.
	In Billings, Montana, emergency room, Dr.
	Jamie Belsky can barely keep up with the surge of new COVID patients.
	Have you run out of beds?
	So we are, we're getting short on beds.
	We're running out of beds, to be frank with you.
	Here at...
	We're short on beds.
	We're running out of beds.
	I mean, are you running out of beds?
	We're short on beds.
	We're running out of beds, to be quite frank with you.
	What kind of response is this?
	Is that how they get the term overrun?
	Because they're running out?
	A lot of running.
	A lot of running.
	We're running out.
	We're short and we're running out.
	It's...
	Okay.
	That was another one.
	Now here's the long clip.
	This is the clipboard, which is just loaded with stuff I can't even break it up anymore because it's ridiculous at this point.
	Here at Billings Clinic, the largest hospital in the state, the ICU is running at 150% capacity with younger and sicker patients admitted daily.
	The National Guard is on hand to help care for and screen new patients.
	People need to get vaccinated because right now we're hurting them.
	I struggled with it being on a ventilator.
	59-year-old Frank Miller was hospitalized with COVID more than two weeks ago.
	The unvaccinated engineer spent more than a week on a ventilator.
	How scared were you?
	I was scared out of my mind.
	You were scared out of your mind?
	What did you think was going to happen?
	Because you don't know.
	You don't know what's happening.
	Afterwards.
	I thought I'd come right out of it and I'd be okay.
	Now all of a sudden I couldn't move my hands.
	I couldn't feed myself.
	In the past week, Montana averaged about 108 COVID patients in hospital ICUs, breaking the record seen during the winter of 2020.
	Have you reached your breaking point yet?
	You have good days, you have bad days.
	I have days I have to call my college buddies and say, hey man, it's been a bad day.
	We lost a tough patient last night, and they're great about coming up and saying, hey, what can we do?
	The patient, Frank, we spoke to here regrets not getting the vaccine and plans to do so.
	He still has a long road ahead of himself, including rehab, to learn how to walk again and defeat himself.
	Nora?
	Okay, we got a guy who can't walk now, and he plans to get the vaccine after he's gone through this rigmarole.
	It's a variation.
	It's not even a report.
	It's just a piece of blatant propaganda.
	It's trauma.
	It's trauma.
	It's trauma propaganda.
	And it's designed to scare people and freak them out.
	And, oh, my God, I can't move my hand.
	I can't walk.
	I don't know.
	I've known four or five people have had COVID. I mean, and I'd never heard anyone get paralyzed from it.
	But I guess it's possible because it gets, you know, it does crazy things.
	There was...
	There was a very odd report about, let me see, where was this?
	Let me see where this is from.
	BMC Infectious Diseases.
	Case report of restless anal syndrome as restless leg syndrome variant after COVID-19.
	And there's this case of this guy who, you know, we all used to laugh at restless leg syndrome, but it seems to be a real thing where you just, you know, you're always, your head leg is just moving around.
	And now one of the COVID after effects is restless anal.
	It sounds like a joke, but it's, uh, it's no joke.
	What does restless anal mean?
	You're pooping all the time or you're farting?
	Several weeks after discharge, he gradually began to experience restless deep anal discomfort. he gradually began to experience restless deep anal discomfort.
	Approximately 10 centimeters from the perennial region.
	The following features were observed in the agel region.
	Urge to move is essential, with worsening with rest, improvement with exercise, and worsening at evening.
	Colonoscopy revealed internal hemorrhoids without other rectal lesions.
	And then there's some other fun stuff.
	And so, conclusion, we reported a case presenting restless anal syndrome following infection of COVID-19 as restless leg syndrome variant.
	It's a variant of the restless leg syndrome.
	I think I'd rather have restless leg syndrome for sure.
	Ugh.
	All right, so everything seems to be going okay.
	I mean, in Montana, it's just the unvaccinated.
	But let's move ahead in our time machine.
	Let's go towards the future.
	That's where we have to go to COVID down under.
	They're six months ahead of us.
	Let's see what the latest stats are from New South Wales.
	As the minister said, tragically today, we announced the deaths of seven people who have lost their lives to COVID-19, four women and three men.
	One person was in their 40s, one person in their 50s, two people in their 70s, two people in their 80s, and one person who was in their 90s.
	All of those individuals had underlying health conditions.
	One person was not vaccinated.
	Three people had received one dose of a COVID vaccine and three people had received two doses of a COVID vaccine.
	Doesn't seem to be all that groovy.
	Wait a minute.
	So they had seven deaths, so they got the whole country locked down because of seven deaths.
	What is their average daily death?
	It's got to be a lot more than that.
	But okay, let's say we've got these seven.
	And all of them except one were old, 70 and older.
	And most of them had shots, had the vaccine.
	Yeah.
	So what does this tell you?
	COVID's a killer.
	That's what she just said.
	COVID's a killer, everybody.
	It's going to kill you.
	It's going to kill you, I tell you.
	But it doesn't matter because everyone's getting vaxxed.
	Yeah, well, they are.
	People who haven't read my last column in subsection, go read it.
	I didn't read it.
	That's odd.
	I didn't see it come through.
	What's it about?
	It's about fealty.
	Fealty?
	Yeah, this is a giant...
	I'm saying that all these facts and the shutdowns and everything in between is all a test to see how many people in the public, especially in Western democracies, are obedient.
	So this is a giant obedience test because...
	And I kind of bring it up at the beginning because I believe this is partly true.
	We see what's happening with China and I just saw the railroad go by.
	Oh my goodness, yeah.
	We see what's happening in China where you have an obedient population, very obedient.
	They've always been that way.
	When I was a kid, we were told about it, how the Chinese can do anything, get the public to do anything they want.
	That's why they had the one child per family thing.
	Okay, whatever.
	And so they're very obedient, and that obedience has resulted in them being the economic powerhouse that they are right now.
	And so maybe if we tested our own public for obedience, we could see if we're obedient enough, maybe we can compete with the Chinese that way.
	And the basis for this, which is not in the column...
	Is my reference to the mid-80s, the 1980s, when all these books came out about Japan and Japan's way of doing manufacturing.
	How we should be more like Japan.
	We should have these QC groups and we should do this and we should do that.
	And there was even a big giant book written about this.
	In fact, a number of books came out about how the Japanese miracle, how it works and how much better they are.
	This all took place just before the collapse of the Japanese economy and the stock market over there, which never fully recovered.
	But at the time, we should all be more like the Japanese.
	Now I think we're trying to get us to be more like the Chinese.
	And it's a giant test.
	Who's the obedient ones?
	And the ones who aren't obedient, they're going to be left behind.
	We need an obedient public to get to work.
	So it's like we're playing a huge game of Simon Says.
	Yeah, and the winner so far is New Zealand.
	Wow.
	The most passive, most obedient public in all Western society.
	Well, that was Australia.
	It was New South Wales, but I think...
	No, I know that was, but I'm saying New Zealand.
	We don't have reports from them because they're just shut down.
	They had one case.
	They shut down the whole time.
	You can't even get a report.
	I mean, we wouldn't even know if the whole place had sunk into the ocean.
	There's nothing coming out.
	And I do need more Yacinda.
	But, you know, the Lord giveth, the Lord taketh.
	He took Yacinda.
	He got your new Hochul woman.
	He gave us Hochul.
	She's better, actually.
	She's funnier.
	Now, the good news is that we're getting very close to the desired level of vaccination in Australia, which means Freedom Day is right around the corner.
	Let's find out how free you'll be in Australia on Freedom Day.
	Well, Mark, we're just 13 days away from our first so-called Freedom Day, easing restrictions only for the fully vaccinated.
	You'll be allowed five vaccinated visitors to your home.
	Groups of 20 will be allowed outdoors.
	Restaurants, pubs and other hospitality venues can reopen at one person per four square metres.
	Retail stores can reopen.
	Hairdresses and nail salons with a maximum of five clients.
	Gyms will be back, offering classes of up to 20 people.
	Now, weddings can have up to 50 guests, and dancing is allowed.
	Funerals, up to 50 people as well.
	Churches and other places of worship can open, but with no singing.
	Major venues, like stadiums, zoos, and theme parks can have 5,000 guests.
	Cinemas, theatres, museums, and galleries will also be back.
	Again, only for the fully vaccinated in this first stage.
	Freedom!
	Yeah, baby!
	Freedom Day!
	Sounds pretty free, Australia.
	I'd say you've been granted all kinds of beautiful freedoms.
	You should thank your overlords for that.
	We're going to see...
	I guess Cuomo and de Blasio already kind of spoke like that.
	This new hokul lady isn't far off.
	Oh, I like her.
	The vaxxed necklace.
	She's doing merch.
	I was like, okay, this lady's going to be around.
	Yeah, that is merch, and I'm sure they're selling like hotcakes.
	There's a number of funny merches out there that I'm going to grab a couple of them.
	One is the votive, that tall Mexican-style votive candle that looks like a giant prayer glass.
	Yeah, a prayer candle.
	Whatever, yeah.
	And it's got, there's Fauci.
	Fauci's got two or three of them on there.
	I have a Fauci prayer candle.
	You have a Fauci one?
	Yes, and I burned it halfway.
	If you recall, someone sent it to me almost at the beginning of this thing.
	And I was burning it.
	I was burning it every show.
	I was burning it.
	There's a lot of Fauci bobbleheads, which is pretty cool.
	Yeah, no, this is a collector's item.
	I agree.
	And you know me.
	I'm the expert on collector's items.
	And that Fauci candle's got to be one of them.
	Well, do you want my, I mean, is a semi-used one?
	No, I don't want yours half-burnt one.
	Okay.
	Beggers can't be choosers.
	I'm going to go search Etsy and see what kind of crap I can find.
	This will be collectible.
	It'll be one of those things.
	You go to the county fair and there's these little bins showing people's collections.
	You can get a gold medal or a blue ribbon, I'm sorry, or a second place ribbon, whatever, for these collections.
	This will be the COVID collection.
	There'll be all kinds of stuff eventually.
	It should be coming out by the Mugs?
	That is not an instruction.
	No agenda shop.
	We do not need any Fauci.
	COVID survivor mug is a winner.
	We already got one of those.
	Yeah, we have.
	We've got a lot of stuff like that.
	Before we...
	Oh, we should take a break.
	Before we do, did you see the Tony Awards?
	I did.
	Oh, my God.
	I would say...
	You were one of the few.
	Okay.
	I know.
	I stumbled on him.
	By mistake.
	It was totally by mistake.
	And I didn't catch the one on Paramount+.
	I caught the singing and dancing one on ABC, CBS. I don't even know the network.
	Yeah.
	So I watched it.
	It was disgusting.
	Oh, really?
	I didn't see it.
	I just have the ratings.
	That's all I really want to talk about.
	Okay, I watched it.
	It was out of control.
	It was virtue signaling.
	It's not even reviewable as far as I'm concerned.
	The last time the Chonies were on.
	It was 2019.
	They did not have a Chonies because there was no Broadway.
	Yeah, and they're giving awards out for the closed year.
	That's the other thing.
	It's humorous.
	Yeah, so since there was no Broadway, there was no Chonies in 2020.
	And the viewing numbers for the 2019 awards, so this would be pre-pandemic, was already pretty much no interest, 5.4 million.
	The show that you saw, thank goodness, When you were there, pulled in a whopping 2.7 million viewers.
	Wow.
	That's bad.
	That's bad.
	But now this Hollywood reporter wrote an interesting little line here.
	The bulk of the Chionis also streamed exclusively on Paramount +, with only the awards for Best Play, Best Revival of a Play, and Best Musical presented during the CBS special.
	Per usual, with streaming platforms, viewer figures for the Paramount +, Chionis presentation...
	Are treated like a state secret.
	And this is it.
	This is how the streaming guys, they're changing the metrics.
	Yeah, because nobody watched that.
	But they're changing the metrics to their benefit.
	They don't want anyone to know.
	They'll tell you.
	They'll tell you how good it was.
	Oh, it was very successful for us.
	Yeah, that's how it works.
	Biggest numbers ever.
	Biggest numbers ever?
	I don't think so.
	Was there anything notable in the show?
	It was probably one of the worst presentations of any show of its type.
	It made the Emmys look like the greatest show ever.
	It looked like P.T. Barnum put them on.
	I mean, it was just sad.
	They did all the musical numbers and you got to see a few things and that was poorly done too.
	It was way too woke.
	It was like just giving you more reason not to go to Broadway.
	Just give me an example of the woke.
	We should have had a clip.
	Well, they had Titus, what's his name, the actor, and his boyfriend up there singing some duet.
	Was there any men in dresses?
	Because we forgot to mention that that happened on the Emmys.
	Were there any men in dresses?
	No, but there were a lot of men singing love songs to each other, holding hands.
	Oh, yay!
	Lots.
	And it was just...
	I wouldn't say it was all 100% gay, but...
	And it wasn't necessarily offensive, if you like Broadway anyway, but it was, I would say, as a connoisseur, it was too gay.
	And it was too, come to Broadway, you know, and it was, it was just, it was, I had to take a shower afterwards.
	Yeah.
	I'd like to thank you for your obvious courage and say in the morning to you, the man who put the C in Conrad's memo.
	Ladies and gentlemen, please say hello to Mr.
	John C. Devorak.
	In the morning to you, Mr.
	Adam Curls.
	In the morning, chef C. Boots on the ground, feet in the air, subs in the water, all the days and nights out there.
	And in the morning to our trolls in the troll room who are there every single live show.
	But they're there all the time, really.
	24-7 you can find them.
	That's where they are.
	That's where they're all lined up.
	They're there for live shows, for pre-recorded shows.
	It goes along with noagendastream.com.
	It's 24 hours a day.
	It's a good time in there.
	It's a good hang.
	Let's count them for a second.
	Let's find out how many are in there in the troll room for today.
	Did I get a count?
	I didn't get a count.
	What's happening?
	Try again.
	Ah, there we go.
	2026.
	2026 trolls on deck.
	And we appreciate you all being there.
	And if you want a little more laid-back experience, you can follow John and I at knowagendasocial.com.
	It is our Mastodon instance part of the Fediverse, which means it's completely decentralized.
	Of course, our part is just us, but we interact with any other server.
	It's called Federation.
	You can follow me, Adam, at knowagendasocial.com and John John C. Dvorak at noagendasocial.com.
	And I had a pretty good email from someone who said, hey, I want to set up a Mastodon server.
	Would it be okay to get a subdomain of noagendasocial.com?
	And I thought that was actually kind of a good idea.
	Interesting idea.
	So they can do, you know, five, like, I think they want to do it for the Texas group.
	So they'll do na512.noagendasocial.com.
	Now, I want to say that that means that you are not completely independent.
	If I keel over and I forget to renew NoAgendaSocial.com and someone captures it, you could be really screwed.
	I don't know what happens in the Fediverse when you change your URL, but I'm thinking it's not going to be very good.
	But as a general community idea, I think it's dynamite.
	A very, very smart idea.
	I agree.
	Yeah, and you just said, email me and I'll map it to your server.
	And we've been struggling, been kind of looking for something like that to make it fit together better.
	So strap on to our life vest.
	Yeah, that's NoAgendaSocial.com.
	Now, we want to thank the artist for episode 1385.
	We have to start with the artiste.
	That was Capitalist Agenda, who brought us what I thought was a very Mondrian-esque piece of work.
	I think he himself titled it Bauhaus, which I disagree with.
	I don't think it was a very Bauhaus-y piece.
	I can see a little bit.
	No, I agree with that, too.
	But more importantly, lots of feedback.
	People love this piece of art.
	And I think that's kind of our mission, is to strike an emotional chord.
	Yeah.
	I thought it wasn't the piece I picked right away.
	You were really attracted to it.
	Yes, I was all jitty about it.
	You were jacked up.
	I had one execution complaint, which is I didn't like the...
	The little blue fill-ins on certain O's.
	On a B and an O and a D. Yeah, I... O, B, O. O, B, D. O, B, D. I don't know.
	Maybe that means something.
	But it was a real pretty piece, and it was...
	You were looking at something else, though.
	What were you looking at that you liked?
	Yes, I'm trying to find it.
	It was, I think...
	I think it was on page two.
	It's not on.
	We got something swamped.
	I can't remember.
	It wasn't the poop emojis.
	Enough fists, everybody.
	We're not going to do the fists.
	We don't like fists.
	Well, we've done it.
	It's like a lot of pooping stuff.
	A lot.
	And I'm always surprised by that.
	I mean, just putting the word poop, it's...
	I kind of like this piece, the Gitmo Nation Awards by Nessworks.
	It was like a...
	Is that the one that you mentioned that you liked?
	Messy looking awards.
	Big globe or something.
	It was kind of cool.
	No.
	Hmm.
	I can't remember what it was that you were looking at that you liked.
	Kenny Ben tried the monkeys again, and by putting our name in it, yeah.
	Too little, too late, pal.
	Yeah, it's a nice try.
	Was it?
	No, the awards.
	No, that was on the previous episode, the awards.
	Oh, maybe you're right.
	Yeah, let me take another look at the bottom of it.
	You've got to go higher.
	Was it the mug?
	I think, was it the mug?
	You know, it wasn't the mug.
	Wasn't it the mug?
	Maybe, did it get deleted?
	You were looking at something else.
	Were you looking at Evergreen?
	No, this is going to frustrate me.
	Oh, maybe it was an Evergreen piece.
	Let me look.
	Frustrate me.
	So you had a whole bunch of the pooping stuff.
	And...
	Oh, no.
	Burp.
	You like the whip.
	The no agenda from Moose.
	The whip?
	Yeah.
	It's on the front page about halfway down the right-hand side.
	The leather background.
	The leather whip that makes up the O of no agenda.
	No, no.
	No?
	No?
	You don't see it now?
	That was definitely not it.
	I'm just looking at it now.
	I don't remember ever seeing it before.
	Whatever.
	There was a lot of pieces to choose from.
	The artsy piece, I think I complained because it really was not topical, but it was so pretty that we went with it.
	Sometimes you just have to let the art move you.
	No, it was...
	I'm sorry, you're correct.
	On Evergreens, it was the Emmy Award.
	No, no.
	With the...
	No, that wasn't...
	I don't know.
	We look at everything, but there was too much poop art.
	Yeah, poop's no good.
	We don't like it.
	That's the basic problem.
	Thank you very much.
	And now I've forgotten who it was.
	It was...
	Gosh, golly.
	It was Capitalist Agenda, wasn't it?
	No.
	Was it Capitalist Agenda?
	Oh, man.
	He's the one who does that kind of stuff.
	Yeah.
	I think it was.
	Yeah, Capitalist Agenda.
	Okay.
	Sorry about that.
	Capitalist Agenda, thank you.
	Excellent work.
	We loved it.
	You've got our feedback.
	You can do even better next time.
	But truly, as a part of the value-for-value system, this is so beautiful.
	We're complaining about the art.
	That's how much selection there is.
	And every single piece is, by itself, fantastic.
	But we have to make a choice.
	And we have three choices.
	One for the pre-stream art, one for the show art, and, of course, we also have newsletter art.
	And all the artist work is highly appreciated.
	You can see them all.
	You can participate at noagendaartgenerator.com.
	And if you have a podcasting 2.0 app, which you can find at newpodcastapps.com, then you can see many of these images that we talked about coming by in sequence, timed with our chapters, and even some of them used later on in the show just because they fit the topic.
	And I got a text message this morning from Brett Weinstein.
	How about that?
	Which one is he?
	He's the one with Heather.
	He's the one with Heather.
	Heather.
	Who's Heather?
	Heather.
	Don't talk like that.
	Oh, okay.
	So he's the thin one.
	It's Brett Weinstein with Heather.
	There's Brett and Bart and Phil.
	I mean, there's a bunch of these Weinsteins.
	Okay.
	Well, Brett is the one with 600,000 followers on Twitter.
	And somehow, people pulled me into a thread, people, I would say, fantastic producers, who said, hey, man, you should talk to Adam Curry.
	He's a podfather.
	He can tell you all what's going on.
	He's fine.
	He'll come up.
	He is bad.
	And so I properly replied, you know, Brett, let me know if I can help you with anything.
	And then he DMed me.
	He sent me a DM on Twitter and gave me his phone number.
	We've been texting, and he wants to talk, and he's very interested.
	I mean, this could be a huge, huge push for Podcast Index and for Podcasting 2.0.
	He's got numbers.
	Yeah, well, Brett's the guy who was at...
	I had to look him up.
	Brett's the guy...
	The other guy who works for Peter Thiel.
	Yeah.
	Brett's the guy who cowed back down to the students at Evergreen and quit and took his wife with him.
	Yes.
	Correct.
	Correct.
	Oh.
	Yeah, he should be on Podcasting 2.0.
	Good, good.
	He should make a...
	Maybe he can get on his show.
	Oh, totally.
	Yeah.
	That's part of the deal.
	I'll help you, but you've got to put me on your show.
	I have nothing to say on his show.
	And the way he texted me, he said, yeah, I was just talking about you with Joe.
	So go Joe.
	Joe helping the podcasting 2.0.
	Both Weinsteins are just, they all want to be, both of them want to be friends with Joe.
	Well, why not?
	Everyone wants to be friends with Joe.
	Joe wants to be friends with Joe.
	Joe's got the direct connect to the horse dewormer, baby.
	We love Joe.
	All right, let's thank some of our other producers who have also done fine work.
	We love the time, talent, and treasure that everybody puts into it.
	And these are the executive producers and associate executive producers for today's show, which is episode 1386.
	On our way to 1400.
	Indeed.
	So if you get the newsletter, you're going to see a theme of 1400 in the photo, the first picture on the newsletter.
	Oh, you've started the pre-marketing for episode 1400.
	Nice.
	Yeah, first one was a Kawasaki 1400.
	Wait a minute.
	There was a Kawasaki 1400 motorcycle?
	Yeah, in the news, yeah.
	What do you mean there was?
	They still make it, I think.
	But a 1400cc?
	Yeah.
	That's an odd number.
	Isn't it typically like 1200cc?
	How'd they get an extra 200?
	They just made it bigger.
	Bigger motor.
	So I used to have a couple bikes.
	I had bikes too.
	I had bikes.
	Well, so my old roommate, Harden, was a real bike nut.
	He had a lot of bikes.
	So years went by, I hadn't seen him for a while, and he comes by the house with, in fact, one time the two of us drove, he had a Suzuki 750 water cool years ago, and that was a powerful bike.
	But today's world with this 1400s and all these bikes, I mean, there's no comparison.
	Well, the 1400 is a 750, I just found out.
	Oh, it's only a 750, but they call it a 1400?
	That's what Ned says.
	Well, the Heat came by with a 1250.
	That was 1200.
	Yeah, that's a Goldwing level.
	But this was like a cafe racer style.
	And so he comes by with this bike, and I hadn't driven a bike for a while, so I said, you want to drive it?
	I said, hell yeah, sure.
	That's a big bike.
	That's a big bike for just hopping on again.
	It's a little more powerful than you'd expect.
	So I go around the corner with this thing, and there's a back road that's wide open, so I decided just to give it a little gas.
	Holy mackerel!
	So it scared the crap out of me.
	So, I mean, just this thing took off like a rocket ship.
	And so I, you know, back it off and come back into the, put it back in the driveway, shaking.
	I said, holy, how do you even drive this thing?
	This bike is dangerous.
	Mm-hmm.
	Well, that's what most people drive nowadays.
	They're driving these bikes.
	I don't know.
	I don't know.
	Yeah, no, I never got into the...
	I had crossers.
	I had Kreidler 70cc motocross.
	I had a...
	Oh, my God.
	By the way, the most dangerous bike I ever drove was a Honda 50.
	It doesn't go.
	It doesn't stop.
	It just doesn't go.
	It doesn't stop.
	So you get it going.
	You know, it finally gets up to some speed.
	You can't stop the damn thing.
	That is a death trap.
	I'm glad they took them off the market.
	My last ride was a motocross.
	It was a celebrity ride.
	And I had always ridden like 125, maybe a 250.
	They gave me a KTM 450.
	Yeah.
	And I went up on the table jump and I landed and somehow my wrist just kind of went down and the bike shot off and I landed flat on my back.
	And that was it.
	I couldn't poop straight for a year after that.
	Weren't we doing this show when that happened?
	I have no idea.
	It's a horrible story.
	Well, let's start off with our donations.
	Yes.
	Instead of our tales of woe from the past.
	Tales of old dudes and bikes.
	Hey, that's another exit strategy.
	I hear that car talk is gone, so it can be old dudes with bike talk.
	Yeah.
	Well, first on the list, by the way, we have Anonymous.
	Sironymous.
	I'm sorry.
	Sironymous of Dogpatch of Lower Slobovia.
	Hey, he's back.
	It's his monthly donation.
	In his note, and he gave $18.50, which I counted three times to make sure it was accurate.
	In his note, in a subtext, he kind of confirms our suspicions.
	Can I ask you a question first?
	Yeah.
	You just said you had to count it three times?
	Did it come in and what was the form of...
	It came in at cash, $100 bills, and $50.
	Wow.
	But when I read the note, you'll see why I counted it three times.
	All right.
	Thank you for all the producers that make this such an informative and useful show.
	John...
	Thank you for counting the donations accurately.
	Flawed numbers result in flawed information, and there is already enough of that going around.
	Wow.
	Rubicon, anybody?
	Tell me about it.
	Cool.
	Either that or he's just giving it to us.
	That's fine.
	And that's that restless anal syndrome I heard about.
	I will keep it short as demands have accelerated in the past several weeks.
	I have zero idea if vaccines will be required after my travels, but I am staying dangerous.
	My experience continues to be don't ask, don't tell behavior, just fill in the forms around the world, although paying testing is I'm just going to read what it says.
	Although paying testing fees remain a staple of my life.
	And you've gone through that.
	You know how expensive they can be.
	Very expensive.
	For those considering vaccine mandates, I recommend they review the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 as their model.
	In that case, they applied Article 4, Section 4, Clause 3 of the U.S. Constitution, while for vaccine mandates, I assume they would have to apply compelling state interest.
	For those less familiar with U.S. history, the act required all law enforcement members to participate under penalty, effectively $34,000 in current dollars, punished those hiding or helping such fugitives financially for the value punished those hiding or helping such fugitives financially for the value of lost labor and cost of recovery and eliminated habeas corpus for the accused
	Consequences of the act seem obvious in retrospect, yet so were decisions on Afghanistan following our experience with Vietnam.
	Hmm.
	Mm-hmm.
	Mm-hmm.
	Wow, that's a lot in there.
	Thank you so much.
	You're going to have to deconstruct that on your own.
	Seronymous of Dogpatch and Lower Slobovia, a true gem and a scholar amongst gentlemen and possibly some spook sending on messages through the show.
	It's okay.
	No problem.
	We live and die by numerology.
	Thank you so much.
	No jingles, no karma.
	We have to be strict.
	He doesn't want it.
	He doesn't get it.
	I'll get this one.
	Sir Macanudo is next from De La Paz.
	$1,000.33 and he simply says, from Sir Macanudo, De La Paz, love you guys.
	A little goat, please.
	You've got karma.
	Gentlemen, Dave of the Clay Pits.
	Parts are known in the U.S., 3, 4, 6, 50.
	$346.50.
	I wonder if there's a reason.
	Ah, yes.
	My donation of $346.88...
	Wait a minute.
	Is that...
	Did PayPal ding a couple cents off of his donation, John?
	Is that possible?
	They don't do it when it comes to...
	All the donations on this list are gross, not net.
	Hmm.
	Okay.
	Well, here it is regardless.
	My donation of 34688 qualifies me for the title of Gentleman Dave of the Clay Pits.
	I will make that Sir David of the same at some point in the near future.
	God willing...
	So wait a minute.
	He's making up a title Gentleman Dave?
	It's not really a title.
	This cropped up some years ago.
	That's not a level, is it?
	Gentleman of the Squire.
	Well, if he's a knight and he wants to call himself a gentleman.
	No, that's not what he's saying.
	He's saying, I will make that Sir David at some point in the near future.
	There are people that call themselves Squires.
	It's just like a pseudonym.
	He wants to call himself Gentleman Dave.
	I don't have a problem.
	We have no say over it.
	you are more than welcome to the good gentleman Dave of the clay pits.
	And he says he will make that Sir David at some point in the near future.
	God willing, and the creek don't rise.
	The donation amount is 25 cents per episode, plus 38 cents to encourage you to keep going.
	Well, thank you.
	I appreciate that.
	That's a real attaboy.
	My second human resource, Joanna Lynn, was dating this guy named Ben, named Dave, now Sir Dave from Dementia B, or whatever, when he hit me in the mouth in the run-up to the 2016 election.
	The show was certainly an acquired taste, and it was not until after that election that I was hooked.
	I wonder how that worked.
	What was it after the election?
	Why were you hooked?
	What election?
	The 2016.
	Oh, maybe it was a big Trump supporter and he thought that since we were deconstructing news stories, which are mostly anti-Trump, he thought that was a big deal because nobody else was doing it.
	I'm sorry.
	That usually happens to you, but now people are calling me during the show.
	So anyway, that's when he was hooked.
	I've never been called during the show.
	The aforementioned 30-something kids we married at the beginning of the month, so no goat nuptials karma is hereby requested.
	They are also working hard on producing human resources of their own, so perhaps a second dose of karma for that as well.
	We do it all in one big one.
	Sir Dave's birthday is on October 2nd, so please add him to the list.
	Jingles are dealer's choice.
	Thank you, gentlemen, for promoting sanity in this world gone insane.
	There's much more I would like to add, but that's already about a minute.
	If you would like to spend about 50 seconds.
	Oh yeah, he sent a poem in, which I'll put in the show notes.
	And I've chosen a little bit of this ditty since we haven't heard of it in a while.
	It's a classic.
	The ants.
	I got ants.
	I got ants.
	You've got karma. - Ants.
	Ants and karma.
	Ants.
	All right, we've got Kevin Law, LAUX338, and he says, Can't write War and Peace and 250 characters.
	Thanks, PayPal.
	How's buying karma?
	Work six months searching, ended with karma, and one week.
	Wow.
	Check number from a sale of my house was 338, hence the donation.
	O.G. Pelosi jobs karma, please.
	Thank you for your courage.
	And they say numerology doesn't matter.
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs!
	Now we have Wes Baker from Wokistan, 3334.com.
	And I'm going to read a note and I'm going to do a little quiz for you asking you to guess.
	I'll give you three guesses.
	Because I just put Wokistan on here because this is one of those things that came in and Jay isn't here to scan this stuff so you wouldn't know.
	And Eric put California, Oregon, Washington.
	There's question marks I'm going to read.
	Wokistan.
	Wokistan is...
	Wait, don't tell me.
	Who is the queen of Wilkistan?
	Kara Swisher.
	No, I don't know where Wilkistan is.
	Well, I'm going to give you three guesses after we're done.
	Maybe there's a hint in here.
	ITM, I know where it's from because he put it on his check.
	I came to the best podcast in the universe from Twit.
	Who knows?
	I repeatedly hear Twit donation.
	I repeatedly heard JCD talking about the No Agenda show and decided to give it a listen.
	So I've been listening for a bit.
	Thousands of hours later, I thank you for the sanity.
	Once upon a time, I had a monthly donation set up, and after a car change, I thought I would just do annual donations and have since fallen down on the job.
	Oh, no.
	You two old dudes and the community on No Agenda Social have restored my faith in humanity.
	I live in a liberal area, or as I refer to it as Wokistan.
	And I look forward to the twice-weekly Thursday shows to give me a break from my Wokistan co-conspirators.
	Can I get a dedouching?
	You've been de-douched.
	I should have given you this earlier, but he needs an information man.
	New information has come to light.
	And fear is freedom for us shittisons in the Four Corners Restricted Zone.
	Thank you for your courage, Wes Baker.
	Wes, thank you very much.
	Of course we can do that for you.
	I've got information, man.
	New shit has come to light.
	Subjugation is liberation!
	Contradiction is truth!
	Those are the facts of this world!
	And you will all surrender to them!
	You pigs in human flow!
	Classic!
	One of our favorites, and it feels like we'll be using it more these days.
	So we know that Wokistan is in the Four Corners area, which is right in the middle of the country, kind of, where the four states come together in the corners.
	We can stand there and you can jump from state to state to state.
	Um...
	Where do you think it might be?
	The Four Corners?
	No, not the Four Corners.
	Wilkistan?
	My first guess would be Boulder, Colorado.
	Okay.
	I thought you were going to give me options.
	Yeah.
	Hints.
	Okay.
	Hints.
	The only hint I can give you is the four square states.
	Austin, Texas.
	Well, Austin, to us, all these awoken sense.
	I'm going to tell you what it is, because everyone out there will say, okay, you're driving.
	Yeah, I'm ready.
	Totally.
	Cheyenne, Wyoming?
	Really now?
	Yeah.
	So you can't get away from it.
	Now, that must be because that's where all the rich people are buying homes and building homes.
	I thought they were all moving to Casper.
	Casper, Wyoming?
	Maybe.
	I don't know.
	Maybe they're bleeding all over the place.
	I think if Cheyenne, Wyoming represents Wokistan, then we're all screwed.
	We might as well just give up.
	Well, thank you very much, Wes Baker.
	And Kristen Boettger.
	Boettger, I think.
	B-O-E-T-T-G-E-R. Boettger.
	Sounds about right.
	Boettger.
	She's from Deutschland.
	From Singen Deutschland.
	Singen.
	Boettger.
	33333.
	Boettger.
	This donation as executive producer goes to my smoking hot husband, Heiner, who turns 40 today.
	All right.
	So make sure we switcheroo that.
	Heiner.
	Heiner, here's the drink for you.
	He never misses out one single show for more than four years now, so I thought this would be a perfect birthday present.
	Now that, that is a great spouse.
	Please de-douche him.
	You've been de-douched.
	Also, make sure to send him some goat karma.
	We appreciate your work and thank you for keeping us sane while the rest of the world turns upside down.
	And to give something back, we try to raise our kids in the same spirit.
	Due to the fact that we listen to the show each Thursday and Sunday while having dinner, our eldest son, five years old, is already a no-agenda kid who hums the Gitmo Nation anthem and loves to listen to the Flight of the Valkyries.
	Yeah, we're getting to them early.
	This is good.
	They listen to the stream.
	Yeah, of course.
	They're live, baby.
	Give it the good work.
	And John, stay safe.
	Thank you very much.
	Heiner, and Heiner is on the list.
	And Kristen.
	Danke.
	You've got karma.
	Onward with Stephanie Francis.
	And she's in Chandler, Arizona, 33333.
	She's an executive producer.
	Thank you for all that you're doing to wake up people up.
	I have been seeing the threes everywhere in the last couple of days.
	So I know it's time for me to step up and make my first donation.
	A few more of these and I'll be joining my husband, Don Francis, at the roundtable.
	I'd love to connect with others in our area in Chandler, Arizona.
	So maybe I'll just have to plan a meetup to do so.
	gotta be meetups there.
	Can you play the get vaccinated no jingle and good karma for all?
	See ya, Stephanie.
	Of course we can.
	Get vaccinated.
	No.
	I love that one.
	You've got karma.
	Next up, another executive producer, Sir Vincenzo from Brooklyn, New York.
	Brooklyn.
	33333, it is the number for the executive producership.
	Everybody should have one at least once in their life.
	I have some fun new Ileana...
	Oh, this is Ileana's dad.
	I have some fun new Ileana clips that I think you'll enjoy.
	She is three today, September 30th, so I thought all those threes deserved a donation to the best podcast in the universe.
	It's so crazy.
	It was a year ago I sent the original Sleepy Joe clips on her second birthday, and now, John, she's back with some more new fun clips that will hopefully make it into rotation.
	I'm requesting you play them...
	Play them through for everyone in honor of her birthday.
	I also want to mention that...
	Okay, let's start with that.
	These are actually quite cute.
	A couple of them are outstanding.
	John, we have to do a little analysis of the new jingles from Ileana.
	This is child abuse at its best.
	I'm Ileana and I'm three.
	Happy birthday to me.
	Sorry.
	I guess that's for herself.
	That's her own little happy birthday thing.
	Let's see this.
	I mean, babe, get that vaccine!
	Could you understand what she said?
	No.
	Get that vaccine!
	Oh, okay.
	I mean, babe, get that vaccine!
	No, that's a tough one, tough one.
	How about this?
	Sleepy Joe!
	Ooh, there's a new Sleepy Joe.
	Sleepy Joe!
	But I think she gets better.
	I don't know if that bumps the old sleepy child.
	No, it doesn't.
	No, no.
	The other sleepy...
	It's a magical moment with kids.
	You have to grab it.
	This may be one of them.
	Go get a botanine!
	Like a good slave!
	I don't think you can understand it.
	No, I didn't get it either.
	It's too bad.
	It says, get the vaccine like a good slave.
	It's just, it's not quite, it's a little too...
	I think that's a good line for her.
	It's a good line, yeah.
	It needs to be recorded until it's clear.
	Until she nails it.
	Until she nails it, yeah.
	Go get the vaccine like a good slave.
	Yeah, it's good.
	And they also take a couple beats out of the pause.
	All right, here's another one.
	Grandpa Joe?
	Grandpa Joe.
	You gotta listen to Grandpa Joe.
	Let's see, there's two more.
	There we go.
	This one.
	This may be good.
	It's cute.
	And final one.
	I think this one is for you personalized.
	This is like a special one for you.
	What's up, John?
	What's up, John?
	Yeah.
	That's cute.
	I think the get the vax, get the vax a lean, like a good slave, is a good one.
	A little...
	Yeah.
	But you need...
	Rerecord it.
	Yeah.
	Rerecord.
	Do it a couple times.
	Anyway, continue with the notes.
	Thank you very much, Sir Vincenzo, for abusing your child.
	It was great.
	We appreciate that.
	It brings us lots of karma and good fortune.
	He says, I also wanted to mention I started working with Scout and Cellar as a consultant.
	It's clean-crafted wine that I think you and John will enjoy.
	Some is coming your way.
	Have you checked out this scoutandcellar.com slash Vincenzo website for the 2020 Galavant Bubbly Rosé?
	It's amazing, he says.
	They have interesting wines from around the world, all under the clean-crafted principle.
	Looking forward to hearing what both of you think of it.
	Thank you for the great work, Sir Vincendo.
	As always, please credit my executive producer ship to Vinnie Pedulla.
	Okay, happy to do that.
	I don't know anything about the clean-crafted principle.
	You might be able to enlighten us on that.
	Clueless.
	Oh, really?
	Okay.
	Did he need any other jingles or anything?
	I'm just going to give him a little karma for being so nice there.
	You've got karma.
	I did notice something else, Gray.
	I'm looking at the Michelin stars for the local restaurants and who got what awards and what they get grouse about.
	I don't know if the place isn't that good.
	So they have this new Michelin...
	It's called the Michelin Green Star.
	Oh, let me guess.
	Let me guess.
	You already got it.
	You don't have to guess.
	Yeah, you don't have to guess.
	Sustainable local.
	Sustainable local.
	Made of wood.
	Have a stick.
	Oh, nice.
	Nikki Reynolds is next on the list from Canyon Lake, California.
	She came up with $333.
	And she writes in, oh, another switcheroo.
	Ooh, okay.
	This is a switcheroo to my husband, Cody.
	ITM from the People's Republic of California.
	I'm making this donation in the original Wokistan.
	I'm making this donation in honor of my smoking hot husband, Cody, for our fourth anniversary.
	I think a thorough de-douching is in the...
	You've been de-douched.
	And a executive producer credit is a way better gift than the traditional fruit or flowers.
	Aww.
	Yeah.
	Happy fourth anniversary!
	Thank you for everything you do, for our human resources, and me, especially for hitting me in the mouth.
	I needed a second smacking after our friend Liz hit us both a few months ago.
	We both love No Agenda and truly appreciate that we can find out what's going on in the world without our amygdalas exploding.
	And...
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	Thank you, John and Adam, and all the producers for all you do.
	I hereby request your best L Sharpton, R2D2Karma, bye!
	Best L Sharpton?
	The best L Sharpton is the much we...
	Yeah, but resist we much.
	We must and we will much about that be committed.
	You've got...
	Karma.
	Uh, Cody.
	And what was her name?
	Cody and what?
	Who wished him happy anniversary?
	What was his wife's name?
	Oh, I've already moved along.
	I already changed it to...
	Nikki.
	Nikki Reynolds.
	Nikki and Cody, four years and they never had a fight.
	That's all I wanted to do.
	Andrew Fuller, $250, parts unknown in the United States.
	First off, I'd like to thank everyone last show for the donation.
	The karma is much appreciated.
	Quick question, John.
	Do you wear headphones?
	If not, why?
	Because you're always turning down your speakers.
	I'd like to call my dad out as a douchebag, by the way.
	Rich Fuller, you're a douchebag.
	But I love you, Dad.
	I would like to humbly request more surgery karma as I might be on the table right now.
	No jingles, just more karma.
	I mean, yeah, John doesn't use headphones.
	No, I sent him a note explaining the whole thing.
	Oh, okay.
	I personalized the response.
	As we do on this show, we are very closely connected with our producers.
	Yeah, well, it's because they're good, that's why.
	You've got karma.
	Always feeding back stuff, always.
	Sir, that was who?
	That was Andrew Fuller?
	Oh, God, I skipped around improperly.
	Philip Lyonsmith in Oakville, Ontario, Canada, 23456.
	He will be another associate executive producer.
	He needs Donald Trump, Don't Trust China as a jingle.
	Keeping it short, it's my birthday.
	You're on the list.
	And this donation at 23456 takes me to knighthood.
	Assuming it is acceptable to the peerage committee, I wish to be known as Sir Jeremy Chumfatty, the half-witted...
	Sir Jeremy Chumfatty.
	There's a pun in there or something.
	I'm not getting it.
	I don't know either.
	Chumfatty, the half-witted.
	It's...
	It's a...
	I humbly request, beseech, Wye Valley Hereford Pale Ale and Roast Swan as comestible.
	Interesting.
	At the round table.
	Now, Roast Swan is...
	I've never had it.
	I've never had it either.
	It's supposed to be delicious.
	It's supposed to be delicious.
	Now, do you think that's just any old swan, like the one in the river?
	I think the swans that they...
	Yeah.
	I think that's all swans in the river.
	I think the swans that they have in England in that one area around...
	I think it's in Windsor or is it around the Thames?
	I'm not sure where.
	One of the castles.
	The royalty used to eat those swans.
	Yeah, this is interesting.
	And I think, if I'm not mistaken, I could be wrong, I'm going to just say what I think I heard, is that it was illegal to eat swan unless you were a member of the royal family.
	It also seems a little creepy.
	Is that just because we've been programmed to think, oh, pretty swan, swan stands for love.
	Maybe that was part of a program back in the day when they wanted only elites to eat swan.
	You all should honor the swan while we eat it.
	Thank you, gentlemen.
	He continues with, thank you, gentlemen, for keeping my amygdala suitably sized, especially considering all the crazy stuff that has happened over the last 18 months and seemingly still continues on.
	Donald Trump, don't trust China!
	China is asshole!
	Thank you very much, Philip, and we will be seeing you at the roundtable with your swan.
	It's cooking away as we speak.
	David Dahan in Garden City, Michigan, 23456.
	This is one of our favorite sequential number donations.
	I was called out as a douchebag by my buddy, John Nazal, two Sundays ago, and my wife was pissed!
	She wanted to call both of us out, and he stole her moment!
	Whoa.
	Yeah, that's kind of low.
	No.
	First come, first serve.
	I request a de-douching that is long overdue.
	You've been de-douched.
	My dad, the martial art knight, hit me in the mouth several years ago, and I have listened ever since.
	Please play Resist We Much, because it always makes John laugh.
	By the way, John was giggling so much as he was calling me out that he forgot to ask for a de-douching for himself.
	I'm splitting this donation with my keeper, uh...
	With my keeper, her name is also Tina.
	So please deduce her too.
	Okay, we can do that as well.
	You've been deduced.
	Okay, so now what do we need here?
	We need the resist we much.
	That is interesting that we have that two times, random number theory.
	And what was it?
	Resist we much.
	We must and we will much.
	About that.
	Be committed.
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs!
	Mark Valentine, 23456, another one of these numbers in the UK. You guys are the dog's bollocks.
	No jingles, no karma.
	Thank you.
	This is kind of the short note of the day.
	Rita Harrington comes up from Sparks, Nevada.
	208, and she says...
	Thanks for presenting a wider angle of mainstream news, keeping it sane and digestible.
	Rita Harrington, another short note.
	We have to praise these people.
	And then Daniel Bober comes in from some parts unknown.
	He's an APO box.
	In Germany, he says.
	Oh, he's in Germany, yes.
	$200.60.
	Please dedouche my husband, Brian Bober.
	You've been dedouched.
	And Yella Bober, says D-Douche Brian Bober.
	This is his favorite podcast, and what a better place to congratulate him for his 15 years in the military.
	What a better place than here.
	We live in Germany and enjoy listening on our family road trips.
	We appreciate the show.
	Thanks.
	Thank you.
	And probably Rammstein.
	Rammstein.
	Yeah.
	Probably.
	It's probably.
	Samuel Baumann, Caledonia, Michigan, $200.33.
	That is a beautiful magic number at the end for your associate executive producership.
	First of all, please de-douche me, long-time listener, first-time boner.
	You've been de-douched.
	Boots on the ground in an agricultural city in Chile.
	Oh yes, I saw this coming.
	So this producer in Chile is filing a report.
	Most people are still wearing masks outside.
	Some even went alone in the car.
	But my university said, asking VAX status to enter campus is discriminatory and it feels like the tides are finally changing.
	Now, I'm seeing this in Europe, too.
	I'm seeing different countries just saying, screw it, we're done.
	No more VAX pass.
	No more requests to show.
	The test is over.
	Last show, you talked about the Haitians and forgot one of the countries with the most Haitian immigration.
	Well, first of all, we didn't forget.
	We just didn't know, which is why we have the best producer in the universe.
	When I came to Chile six years ago, the immigration offices in my town were designed to receive a maximum of 10 people per day.
	Yeah, like our border.
	A few years back, the lefty globalist president allowed thousands of Haitians to come in as refugees.
	First, the airports were filled, then the immigration offices.
	Lines were blocked long with people camping out in multiple days in order to receive their government identification and paperwork.
	Right-wing globalists took back the presidency in 2018.
	Right-wing globalists, interesting.
	And offered Haitians free flights back to Haiti, but they were almost empty.
	The Haitians made shanty towns, worked in the fields, labored on the farms was cheap, and the payments were under the table.
	Post offices filled with Haitians sending their money back to Haiti.
	Due to the pandemic, wanderlust, or Sleepy Joe border control, a huge number of Haitians started their trek north to the land of opportunity.
	When Haitians are interviewed at the border, many of them have a Chilean-Spanish accent, which amuses everyone here.
	Now, there's no one here to pick blueberries, so Chilean border control is lax and Venezuelan immigrants are flooding in.
	This is a mess worldwide.
	As to why everyone hates Haitians, I couldn't tell you.
	I don't know if that's true.
	Did we say that?
	We didn't say that.
	We talked about the Dominicans.
	Oh, right.
	They hate Haitians.
	They hate Haitians.
	The globalists jumped on the opportunity to be anti-racist and do photo ops, being nice to poor black people, but the general public is still kind of racist here.
	Go figure.
	There are reports and video evidence of Haitians catching and eating family cats and dogs, but it isn't too common.
	Hey, we need this meme over here.
	Dude, if people knew that Haitians were eating dogs, all of Wokistan would be defending the border.
	Yep.
	We need to get this.
	This needs to come out.
	Stop eating our dogs!
	You Haitians!
	Anyway, thank you for your courage.
	Immediate deconstruction has helped me keep sane while locked down in this globalist testing ground.
	Love is lit.
	The southernmost listener.
	Douchebag call out for Elsa Polindo.
	Douchebag!
	And then Jingle and Karma Request, House Building, Goat Karma, and Whoop'em with the Constitution, and WTC7 have not had a Whoop'em request for a long time.
	I think we'll actually play the extended version.
	Now get out there and whoop Obama's behind.
	Now get out there and whoop it.
	Too tight for this market.
	Alright, last but not least is Cavan.
	Is it Cavan?
	It says Cavan.
	Cavan.
	Cavan Drozich.
	Cavan.
	And he comes in with the $200.
	He's our last associate executive producer.
	And he says, thank you for your courage.
	Here's 200 bones from a lowly squire towards knighthood.
	Also, thanks for the links to the blister packs.
	Now I'll be the one who is invincible!
	No jingles, no karma.
	Thanks, Kevin.
	Yeah.
	Oh, so many people emailing me.
	I looked at the show notes.
	I couldn't find it.
	Okay.
	A lot of that.
	And then, hey man, this looks sketchy.
	Yeah, you're ordering shit from India with a PayPal.
	Yeah, that's the...
	Yes, have you found out that it's either $1,000 to get a small amount in the United States or not possible at all?
	This is how it works.
	You gotta jump on the illegal pill wagon.
	Of course it looks sketchy.
	It is sketchy.
	It's total sketchy.
	The thing that kind of freaked me out, though, is the PayPal that I got was, I think, registered to a Dutch person.
	I'm like, you know, that's kind of weird.
	People, you know, and what's Curry ordering?
	He's ordering 20 blister packs of ivermectin.
	He must have a big horse farm.
	Yeah.
	So, yeah, it's sketchy, but that's what you got to do for survival.
	Believe that.
	Thank you very much to our executive producers and associate executive producers for bringing the heat for episode 1386.
	Your time, your talent, your treasure, it's much appreciated.
	And we'll be thanking more of our producers in the second donation segment.
	If you'd like to become an executive producer of the No Agenda show, everyone should try it at least once in their life.
	It's good to have it on your resume.
	Once again, thank you for producing the number one podcast anywhere in the universe.
	Our formula is this.
	We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
	Water! Order!
	Shut up, slave!
	Shut up, slave.
	Shut up, slave.
	Um, yes.
	Oh my goodness.
	Climate change is back on vogue as, you know, we're reentering the Paris climate change and now that Sleepy Joe's in the White House, we got reasons to start talking about it again.
	We're going to get everybody's going to be on the electric car tip.
	And when you really want to get something done in climate change, you need to bring her back onto the main stage, and she is here.
	Greta Thunberg came back with a vengeance.
	Spoke for about 20 minutes.
	A really, truly riveting speech.
	I'm going to play for you the edit as done by the BBC. A little edit done by the Australians.
	But before you play any of it, play yours.
	It's probably longer, I think.
	Mine's 48 seconds.
	She's about 18 now.
	Yes.
	She grimaces.
	She sneers.
	She has a mean girl look.
	She looks like the bad seed in the movie.
	The bad seed.
	The bad seed.
	Holy crap.
	Only you, me, and my dead mom remember that.
	And she's like a bad seed and she's sitting up there and she's squinting and she's looking and then she's snarling.
	She is gross up there.
	She's like, why was anyone listening to this horrible person?
	She is just the worst.
	I mean, people should go find this speech and just look at the looks on her face.
	It's linked in the show notes, of course.
	But also what I noticed, she is an outstanding orator.
	She is doing this.
	From memory.
	She looks at her paper.
	And she has rehearsed.
	She's so good.
	You notice how well she speaks?
	And that she's not reading.
	I know she's not reading.
	She's memorized the speech, which doesn't take a genius when half the speech consists of blah, blah, blah.
	This is not about some expensive, politically correct, green act of bunny-hugging or blah, blah, blah.
	Build back better, blah, blah, blah.
	Green economy, blah, blah, blah.
	Net zero by 2050, blah, blah, blah.
	Net zero by 2050, blah, blah, blah.
	Net zero, blah, blah, blah.
	Climate neutral, blah, blah, blah.
	This is all we hear from our so-called leaders.
	Words.
	Words that sound great.
	But so far has led to no action.
	Our hopes and dreams drown in their empty words and promises.
	Of course, we need constructive dialogue, but they've now had 30 years of blah, blah, blah, and where has that led us?
	But of course, we can still turn this around.
	It is entirely possible.
	It will take drastic annual emission cuts, unlike anything the world has ever seen.
	And as we don't have the technological solutions that alone can deliver anything close to that, that means we will have to change.
	We can no longer let the people in power decide what is politically possible or not.
	We can no longer let the people in power decide what hope is.
	Hope is not passive.
	Hope is not blah, blah, blah.
	Hope is telling the truth.
	Hope is taking action.
	And hope always comes from the people.
	Oh, outstanding!
	Blah, blah, blah.
	Nah, bluff.
	I thought it was funny.
	So she's actually, most of her speech is espousing communist propaganda.
	Totally.
	And I should mention this.
	That's what it is, John.
	She looks like a young communist leader.
	She needs a tight little uniform.
	Oh, she needs the hair in a bun.
	She doesn't need those two hair hanging in her face.
	No, that's no good.
	The hair in a bun and a couple red stars on her collar.
	Yes, that'll help.
	Now, I'm reminded, I don't want to call out Darren O'Neill here.
	But he played one of the worst songs he's ever played on his pre-stream.
	It was called Revolution Now by Steve Earle.
	And I thought he was playing a parody of one of our guys.
	Because for one thing, the singing was weak.
	Not that all of our guys can't sing.
	But the guys who produce songs for us mostly are doing parodies and they're not worried too much about the quality of the singing.
	The singing was...
	So I thought it was just a joke.
	And all he's doing is moaning and groaning about, we should need a revolution now, we need it in the backyard, we need a revolution now, revolution now.
	This is what this girl's doing, and this is what all the lefties, Bernie bros, and everybody in between are doing this.
	They're pushing for a revolution about what?
	For what?
	For what purpose?
	To stick it to the man, bro!
	That's about it.
	Yeah.
	I mean, isn't that the whole point in the 60s?
	Stick it to the man?
	Stick it to the man.
	Drop out, tune in.
	Drop out, turn on and tune in.
	Oh, turn on and tune in.
	Let's get that right.
	Hey, I'm sorry.
	Not all of us were there.
	Well, you can't trust anyone over 30.
	That's another one.
	Yeah, never trust a hippie.
	That wasn't in it.
	Okay, I'm sorry.
	Do we want to play your version of the report?
	No, it's the same thing.
	Completely the same?
	Okay.
	Well, not completely.
	I would cut it off earlier.
	Now, was this part of the Youth Climate Action?
	Was that what this was?
	Yes, it was part of it.
	It just started.
	And she's the keynoter.
	And if you look at the video of her in the back, if you got back far enough, there was her at the podium, a bunch of old people at the dais, and then a giant head.
	In the middle of the thing.
	I missed the head.
	It was a video.
	I'm not sure what it was.
	Maybe it was a guy from a remote.
	I don't know, but it looked like a giant head.
	I missed the whole head thing.
	It was up there, and it was just gross.
	This thing, this is a lost cause.
	She's got to get off the stage.
	You have a clip I see.
	It's only the announcement of the youth thing with Amy announcing it coming up.
	She just does it in a very casual way because she's not into this.
	She wasn't invited.
	So she's a little irked because she's going to COP 28 or whatever, COP 50, whatever the next COP is.
	I think it's 26, 56?
	In Edinburgh, I think is where it is.
	Oh, road trip.
	Youth climate activists are staging a global climate strike today with actions planned in over 1,500 locations.
	There's a...
	By the way, that came and went.
	Do you remember it?
	Did it happen there in Austin?
	What?
	Wokistan?
	What?
	The great protest, the climate action of the youth?
	No one cared.
	No one cared.
	Nothing happened.
	The...
	What is it?
	There's a report.
	This is really funny.
	I don't know where this came from, this report.
	Young People's Voices on Climate Anxiety, Government Betrayal and Moral Injury, a Global Phenomenon.
	This is...
	Let's see who did this thing.
	Grist?
	Okay.
	Climate Justice Solutions.
	So they've got a report.
	More than half of young people think humanity is doomed.
	It's the first study to find that climate anxiety is connected to government in action.
	So there you go.
	That ties it right back around to blah, blah, blah.
	The largest study was...
	Well, now she's emphasized it.
	So now the blah, blah, blah has to go.
	I don't know what she wants.
	Why doesn't she bring out a program?
	She's old enough now.
	She can sit down and do a report with specific things that can be done.
	She said we should just cut all emissions.
	Just shut down.
	Don't drive.
	You know, we have this situation in England where you can't drive, and now all everybody's doing is bitching and moaning.
	These are impractical people.
	Idealistic, impractical people telling us to all revolt.
	Wait for it.
	No, this is the excuse for when you revolt, when you go ballistic.
	The largest study of its kind shows that the environmental crisis is causing widespread psychological distress for young people across the globe.
	In this paper, which came out Tuesday, researchers from the United States, United Kingdom, and Finland found that 45% of teens and young adults say climate anxiety is affecting their daily lives and ability to function.
	Well, yeah, you've terrorized these children.
	Let's take a look at this from an objective perspective.
	You have your ex-Geners and your baby boomers and some of the older millennials.
	These kids are coming up.
	You know they're going to be competition.
	Let's take them out early.
	Take them out early.
	Give them the bull crap.
	Let them get all depressed about it.
	They can't work.
	They're a bunch of nihilists.
	Now they're sitting around moping.
	Oh my God, we're all going to die from climate change.
	Why, we make all the money.
	Who's this we you're talking about?
	The X-Gens, the Baby Boomers, and the older Millennials.
	The Gen Xers, you mean the X-Gens?
	What is X-Gen?
	Sounds like a Marvel movie.
	The X-Men, the Baby Boomers.
	X-Gen coming to the rescue.
	Yeah, Gen X, older millennials.
	By the way, they have a term now that older millennials are called, oh man, what's the name for really old people?
	Geriatrics?
	Yeah, that's it.
	They're called geriatric millennials.
	How kind.
	Yeah.
	JC was at dinner bitching about this.
	So wait a minute.
	So you're saying that the Gen Xers and the Millennials, they're teaming up because they basically don't want the Zoomers because they're competition, so they want them to pretty much kill themselves.
	This has been going on for eons.
	And it fits perfectly with the Facebook news we got.
	Oh, you didn't follow it?
	Well, yeah, I think we did a clip on the last show, if I'm not mistaken.
	Oh, it might be.
	Yeah, I mean, that finally hit the mainstream.
	Oh, Facebook knows that it's hurting children.
	So instead of, hey, get your kids off of this crap, it's like, well, they're bad.
	It's so odd to see.
	There's never any...
	It's like a guy pounding himself, pounding his thumb with a hammer.
	Hey, this hurts!
	I pound my thumb with a hammer.
	Why don't you just stop doing that?
	Stop doing that.
	I don't think so.
	Bam!
	Oh, man, that hurts.
	But you're so pragmatic.
	You see, not everyone's like that.
	This is like the old joke about, hey, doctor, doctor, it hurts when I do this.
	Stop doing that.
	So I have to make this assumption that this is just generational, trying to take out the younger generations because they're going to come in as tough competition.
	Give them a lousy education, freak them out about the climate change, freak them out about everything so they can't function.
	They'll have to be 35 years old before they can even get a job.
	Yeah, I don't think we played this.
	This is a new clip from the custodian.
	Instagram says it needs more time with parents and experts before releasing a new version of the photo sharing app for kids 10 to 12 years old.
	It's a stunning reversal, but parent company Facebook is already under fire from 44 attorneys general, who urged the company to abandon the project, saying Facebook has historically failed to protect the welfare of children.
	I still strongly believe that it's the right thing to do.
	Instagram head Adam Masseri says the app is designed to keep kids safe.
	It's better for parents to have the ability to supervise and control the experience.
	The company is also fighting back after internal corporate documents surfaced in the Wall Street Journal showing Facebook's own research indicated about a third of teen girls who already feel bad about their bodies say Instagram makes them feel even worse.
	Facebook released data confirming that.
	But also countered.
	The majority of teenage girls who experienced body image issues still reported Instagram either made it better or had no impact.
	They just put out one page of that slideshow today.
	Right?
	And that's not enough.
	Psychology professor Jean Twenge says outside research shows social media can negatively impact kids' mental health.
	Instagram really can't be fixed in a way that would make it safe for kids 12 and under.
	I mean, it's already not particularly safe for kids over 13.
	This Thursday, Facebook executives will get a grilling on Capitol Hill.
	Oh, another grilling!
	Bring them in!
	So this is how it works.
	Every single time, and I think maybe the government or the CIA or the NSA or the FBI, the FBI has an office in the Facebook building, I'm just looking around, routing for something.
	Oh, we found something.
	Okay, boss, bring it back.
	Oh, you guys are bad.
	You guys are evil.
	Yeah, you better come in because otherwise we're going to legislate you.
	This is like a reminder.
	Is this the quarterly call that they need to come to D.C.? I mean, it feels like it.
	This whole thing is drummed up.
	Yeah, and by the way, drummed up.
	Oh, Facebook is giving teen girls a negative image of themselves.
	This is the oldest news in the world.
	In the 50s, in the 60s, in the 70s, they bitched and moaned about advertising.
	Oh, they got thin women.
	Models are too thin.
	Oh, they're all skinny.
	Oh, the runway models are too skinny.
	They're too thin.
	They're giving everyone a bad feeling.
	I mean, come off.
	This has been going on forever.
	And now that they all chunked up and they've got big butts, stop fat shaming!
	Yeah.
	It's one thing after another.
	So confusing.
	Women in general are just abused by the media.
	Just completely abused.
	I mean, most of the marketing, most of the advertising, it's all for women.
	Telling them that they're no good...
	Yeah, you're right.
	They've been talking about it forever.
	So now we kind of shift a little bit.
	This was funny, ABC. Push it over to blame Instagram.
	Yeah, wait.
	They put it even more bluntly on ABC. Internal documents from Facebook reportedly show the company targeting children, referring to kids between the ages of 10 and 12 as valuable, untapped audience.
	The Wall Street Journal reports Facebook formed a team to find ways to monetize children and playdates.
	The company just delayed plans to launch an Instagram kids app.
	A bit concerned about the effect Instagram is having on teens' mental health.
	Monetize children and play dates?
	Did he say that?
	I might have.
	Monetize children and playdates.
	I just like the whole idea.
	Monetizing children.
	I like the idea of monetizing children.
	I think that's really creepy sounding.
	It sounds very creepy.
	And you know that this is a setup for these DC... You know, come on down.
	We've got to talk to you guys.
	Because Don Lemon got the boule call.
	He's got to tell.
	He's got to warn everybody.
	He's jumping on.
	Oh yeah, I'm Don Lemon.
	I'm going to save you all from the evil social media.
	Okay, so you know this one I'm fired up about.
	Fired up!
	I've always felt this way, that social media should be regulated.
	They should follow the same rules that we follow here in Legacy Media.
	They should...
	You shouldn't just be able to...
	Wow!
	CNN's not Legacy Media.
	Wow!
	Why would you even say that on CNN? Dumb.
	That's like, isn't that kind of a non-starter?
	Full of himself.
	Don, that's kind of not how we talk around here.
	You know, we do want you to toe the line.
	They should follow the same rules that we follow here in Legacy Media.
	You should just be able to spread things about people that's not true.
	It has a big influence on someone's livelihood, their credibility, their career, even their lives.
	This is the guy who's telling people who don't want to get vaccinated, go pound sand.
	Yeah, that's a big responsibility, Don.
	And so I think that it should be regulated.
	I've always thought that.
	I don't think that I should be able just to go on Twitter or Facebook or Instagram and say whatever I want about Chris Cuomo, whether it's true or not.
	I don't believe that people should be able to do that.
	Or about anyone.
	Even someone who doesn't like me.
	I don't believe that you should be able to do that.
	I don't believe that people should be able to...
	I told you about there's a picture on social media of me and you, right?
	That people love to spread.
	I don't bother with it anymore.
	But they have photoshopped Jeffrey Epstein's face over your body.
	And they spread it and they say, Don Lemon doesn't want people to see him with Jeffrey Epstein.
	And social media won't take it down.
	This is the guy.
	What?
	Social media.
	Was there some place?
	Yes, he's got to go call the social media.
	Hello, social media, you there?
	Hello, social media.
	Yes, Don, what do you want?
	That's my new social media.
	Whenever something's wrong on social media, we call them.
	Yeah!
	What's wrong, Lemon?
	Shut up!
	Social media.
	I'm social media.
	What a whiner that guy is.
	Social media hotline.
	Social media hotline, how can I help?
	So what filter are you using to get the devil's voice?
	It's built in.
	That's all it has.
	Oh, really?
	So Tascam is working with the devil.
	It's actually built in.
	Stop that!
	Yeah, I know.
	I don't know what to do.
	It just pops up from time to time.
	Beelzebub!
	That does sound terrible.
	Well, I did tweak it.
	I spent a lot of time on making that sound just right.
	But this is the same network that sat there and accused some kid in a MAGA hat of being rude towards the American Indian veteran, tried to ruin his life, Yeah.
	Yeah.
	And they lost in a lawsuit.
	It probably cost them a few million bucks.
	Oh, I think more than a few million.
	And what Lemon is saying here is, well, I don't think you can just say whatever you want.
	You can't, you idiot.
	That's the whole point.
	No, there's libel and slander laws.
	You can't just say whatever you want.
	Yeah, that's what's so nuts.
	Shut up.
	He's just, you know what?
	All that report was about was his complaining about that picture of him.
	Yeah, exactly.
	That's the entire problem.
	Because, you know, people really think I was with Jeffrey Epstein, man.
	Social media won't take it down.
	Social media, what?
	And he made a sound, and I think, I bet you this is true, he has a person working full-time, calling up, you know, complaining.
	Oh, yeah, oh, sure.
	Oh, this guy posts, because people do post stuff.
	Hi, call on behalf of Donald, Donald Lamont.
	Donald is very unhappy with this picture.
	We'd like social media to take it down, please.
	You know what?
	Putting out fires.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	Let's see.
	Well, I've got a couple things.
	Here's a little aside.
	I got this clip.
	This is really hard to come by because it's going to be released.
	You can look it up.
	Beethoven's 10th Symphony was never finished.
	And so some genius, I think in Silicon Valley, came up with this idea of taking artificial intelligence and taking the pieces of it.
	Mm-hmm.
	And putting it together and what Beethoven would have done based on AI from Silicon Valley.
	And they're going to release it.
	You can just Google it.
	They're going to release it in Germany, I think in Germany.
	And they're going to bring it.
	It's like in a couple of weeks, they're going to play the whole concert and they're going to be drawing attention with the idea that we don't need writers.
	We don't need, you know, they've been trying to do this writers.
	We can write.
	We can write news releases without writers.
	We have the computer do it.
	And I ended up finding a little bit of it, because there's some of it online, and this is it here.
	It's Beethoven's 10th.
	You can hear what the computer does.
	Music Dum, dum, dum.
	I'm going to show myself old by donating to No Agenda.
	Imagine all the people who could do that.
	Oh yeah, that'd be fab.
	Yeah, on No Agenda.
	In the morning.
	Good one.
	We do have a few people to thank.
	That was very impressive.
	Well done, sir.
	You got me.
	AI. Yeah, AI, baby.
	So we do have a few people to thank for show 1386.
	1386, yeah.
	14 away.
	We're going to actually have our 14th anniversary coming up this month.
	It's crazy.
	Is today the first?
	No, the 31st.
	No, the 26th.
	The 26th of October is when...
	Sonesta Levy, $133.33, for some reason wrote a long note with requests and all these things, but there is a dedouching.
	I'll just read the beginning.
	Please accept this donation to dedouche my smoking hot boyfriend.
	And the love of my life, David...
	Dovid Dov?
	Dovid Dov.
	There you go.
	Dovid Dov.
	Dovid Dov.
	Yes.
	And he's on the birthday list.
	Yeah, definitely.
	We hit a bunch of people in the mouth, but he remained a douchebag, so he's no longer a douchebag.
	Will Robertson, sir, and he's on the list.
	Yep.
	Will Robertson, if you can pronounce his name correctly.
	Will Robertson, Sir Robertson of the Two Sticks in Dos Palos, California, 10179.
	He's got the 73s, this K6WJR. Yes.
	And he's on the birthday list.
	Certainly, yes.
	Does he have a dedouching?
	No, I don't think so.
	Legends Bookstore in Cody, Wyoming.
	In Wokistan, Wyoming.
	No, Cody's different.
	That's Cheyenne.
	Is that $100?
	Thank you for the Legends bookstore.
	I guess they're not in Wokistan.
	No.
	Steve Niles in Santa Cruz, California.
	$100.

	Paul Zimmerman in Dixie, Washington, 5705.
	Sam Von Hoer, 5555.
	He's in the U.S. He's looking for some house karma, buying karma.
	We'll give him that at the end.

	We'll put that at the end for all of these people.
	Yeah.

	Nick Cusantino in Hempstead, Maryland, 50-33.
	Jonathan Akers in Chatton Cho, AP. Hello?
	You there?
	Yeah, I'm listening.
	I'm trying to understand what the hell you're saying.
	You're just like spewing words.
	AP, what?
	What are you reading?
	I'm reading, Jonathan, go to line 35, 36.
	Yeah?
	What's chat and show AP? Chat and show.
	That's the line 36.
	I don't know.
	Chat and show.
	He's got AP for the state.
	No, that's got to be...
	I don't think there's any chat and show.
	Asia, Pacific...
	Maybe it's an APO. Oh, it could be an APO. Now, I was looking for Sam van Hoere because he has a donation email for Nighthood.
	He's from Amsterdam, so I was trying to figure out why we don't have that.
	It was sent to one of us.
	And if I get him, I send him on to Eric.
	I send him on to Eric.
	It was not sent to me.
	Aaron Velsgerber in Bend, Oregon becomes the $50 donor amongst the rest of them, which I'm going to name and location.

	And last is Baron Alan Bean there in Beaverton, Oregon.
	And there was a longer note.
	Well, let me see.
	Also, I think it's Sir Occult Fan.
	He has a birthday.
	I'm not sure if we got that one there.
	I found Sam's note, and I did forward it to the back office.
	Sometimes stuff gets lost in the shuffle, I guess.
	Hello, John and Adam.
	After 20 months of regular donations, I reach knighthood.
	I would like to be called Sir Van Hoor.
	Pronounce John's way with a rolling R. John, please.
	Brrrr.
	Vanhoor!
	For the round table, I would like some Lowlander beer and Kass Flinders.
	Mmm, yummy.
	Finally, could I have a big sponsorship Jobs Karma to speed up my move out of the EU? Oh my.
	Nice.
	I wonder why.
	Is it just, uh...
	You know, when we see hookers around here, I always say, hey, there's a hoor!
	What should be discussed.
	Oops.
	I was trying to nail it with the Jobs.
	Jobs!
	Go, John.
	You've got karma.
	There you go.
	We've got that for you.
	We did have a couple other make goods.
	Let me see what we've got going on.
	There's a slew of them.
	Yeah, we do.
	Let's see.
	We have Nick Vries.
	Yes, we were missing him.
	In the morning, I'd like to credit this executive producership to my father, Mike Vries, for his 60th birthday.
	He turned 60 on September 27th, so please add him to the birthday list.
	Let me just make sure he's on.
	I have a feeling he is.
	Huge birthday list.
	Yeah, he's on there.
	He hit me in the mouth in 2016.
	I've been a listener ever since.
	I thought the best way to show my appreciation for everything he's done for me was an executive producership to the best podcast in the universe.
	Thank you, John and Adam, for keeping us sane and always giving my dad and I something to talk about.
	Love you, Dad.
	Can I get anything by Sharpton?
	That's true.
	And a goat karma.
	We're going to have to forego that for today because otherwise we'll be playing a whole bunch of jingles with the make goods.
	But he is on the list.
	We got that.
	And thank you, of course, for your donation.
	Victor Cutting.
	Um, I was hit in the mouth a couple weeks ago by some random canuck on Twitter who was punching someone else in the mouth as a reply, and so I saved the name of your podcast in my notes.
	After getting locked out of my Twitter account, possibly for liking the wrong thing that was possibly making fun of our cringy Prime Minister Blackface during an election campaign...
	Ahhhh!
	I finally had the time to listen to the podcast and I'm hooked.
	Much thanks for your weekly antidote to M5M.
	I feel like a burden is lifted and that I am not insane and alone in the world on my views of this pandemic and what our governments and even fellow citizens are putting us through.
	I'm still locked out of Twitter, but I rarely feel the urge to check anymore.
	Who knew that no agenda was good for curing M5M social media addiction?
	Hey, stop that.
	I will definitely be looking to attend our host some meetups in my area.
	And then finally, Michael Biancella?
	Please do de-douche me as I've been listening since the first Trump impeachment and have only just now donated.
	You've been de-douched.
	I was hit in the mouth of my friend Adam and the two of us simultaneously hit skit in the mouth.
	Unfortunately, they are a couple of real douchebags, so please remind them of that.
	Douchebags.
	Anyways, thanks for your courage.
	Nice to know that not everyone has become brainwashed zombies doing as they're told by their preferred talking box.
	It's crazy to think that critical thinking is now looked down upon by science!
	Thank you very much, Michael Bianchella.
	Thank all of our producers for supporting the No Agenda show.
	And of course, everyone who came in under $50 for reasons of anonymity, or you may be on one of our multiple programs.
	And let me see.
	There's something else we wanted to mention.
	We got Sam.
	And did we do Sir Fahrenheit's whole email?
	I think he comes at night.
	So I think we have to read this.
	Sir Fahrenheit...
	This is interesting.
	California, Pennsylvania?
	With this donation, I cast...
	Oh, this is a title upgrade.
	I cast aside my title of baronet and become Sir Fahrenheit, the cognitive dissident baron of the baritone saxophone.
	Hey, now!
	With the permission of the Pierce Committee, my protectorate shall be the Monogahela River Watershed.
	Thanks.
	You know, I know how to pronounce that, but after listening to you, I'm now stuck.
	Oh yeah, sure.
	Sure you knew.
	Mahungahalan.
	Mahungahalan.
	And I'm going to have to say that...
	Mahungahalan River Watershed.
	I should refer to it as the land from three rivers to three rivers.
	Also, Tim is a douchebag.
	but a brave one.
	He's part of a group that is organizing to try to get a religious exemption from the Frankenstab mandate.
	Failing that, they want to force their hand to fire them.
	They deserve our support.
	I like Frankenstab.
	Frankenstab, yes.
	Write that down.
	Are you writing that down?
	I am.
	That's a good one.
	Failing that, they want to force their hand to fire them.
	They deserve our support.
	So, after he's de-douchebag, send those righteous people some jobs dog karma.
	Jobs, because they need it.
	Walter, the French bulldog, because I just love it.
	Thank you for your courage.
	Stay safe and such.
	Okay.
	Lots of people need that.
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs!
	You've got Karma.
	Thank you everybody for producing 1386.
	Remember, you can do it.
	You can get in now.
	Get in on the ground floor for Sunday's show.

	We'd love to hear your meetup report, and maybe someone from the following will let us know how the experience was.
	We've got today, Pierce County Washington Fall Meetup, 6 o'clock Pacific Time at Purdy's Public House.
	That's in Sumner, Washington.
	We have the Aloha Luan, no agenda style, 6 o'clock at the Maui Brewing Company.

	Yeah, get connected there in Montreal.
	There's got to be more than just one.
	Saturday, the Heart of Texas Hill Country meetup.
	That'll be at Allstadt Brewery, Fredericksburg, Texas.
	Oh, that's right up the road.
	That's at 1 o'clock on Saturday.
	Huh.
	I should probably see if I can go to that.
	Also on Saturday, Gitmo Nation Reindeer meet up at 3.33.
	That would be Finland time.
	Pear Gulag Slave Gathering.
	It's at Woodshed, Helsinki, Finland.

	We've already established there'll be clowns, jugglers, close magic, a bouncy castle, a motocross track.
	What else?
	I heard there's going to be a dunking tank.
	A dunking tank.
	I cannot wait for that meetup.
	The Keeper and I will be there.
	Thank you all so much for your reports.
	Thank you for setting these up.
	And just, you know, listen to the reports.
	These are people from completely different walks of life.
	When you come together, you've got one thing in common.
	You don't want to be a slave of Gitmo Nation.
	And you support the No Agenda family.
	Go to noagendameetups.com.
	Find one.
	If you can't, set one up yourself.
	It's easy.
	And they're always just like a party.
	Sometimes you want to go hang out with all the nights and days.
	You want to be where you want me.
	Triggered or held the blame.
	You want to be where everybody feels the same.
	It's like a party.
	Like a party.
	I have three ISOs to test with you.
	you I have two.
	Why don't you play yours first?
	Blah, blah, blah.
	An obvious one.
	There's this.
	My head is exploding.
	And then a new entrant.
	Hillary Clinton is a goddamn demon!
	I thought that might be fun.
	It's always punchy when the seed man brings it.
	It's a little profane.
	Very punchy.
	It's too profane.
	So let's go with...
	I got two.
	I got...
	I should have gotten the blah, blah, blah.
	I'm not sure why I didn't.
	But I do have this one.
	I sow words.
	Words that sound great.
	Okay.
	Okay, let's...
	In retrospect, not that good.
	Try this one.
	Nature abhors.
	You know, nature abhors a moron.
	That's Kennedy.
	Blah, blah, blah.
	I think that sums up a lot, doesn't it?
	Yeah, but I think there was another one in there you had.
	Play those three again.
	What, you thought there was a better one?
	Yeah.
	Hold on.
	It wasn't the...
	No, it was this one.
	My head is exploding.
	I think that one's better.
	Really?
	Okay.
	Yeah, because all the information we provide, it would be logical.
	Yeah, makes sense.
	My head is exploding.
	People's heads often explode after listening to the show.
	Yeah.
	Man, a lot we didn't get to.
	Oh, I got a ton of stuff about the budget.
	Oh, wait, wait, wait.
	What did I tell you just the other day?
	We were talking about something.
	I'll see you Thursdays.
	No, there was some trend.
	You had a clip of something, and I said, what's coming next is kids putting alcohol-soaked tampons in their butt.
	Oh, yes.
	That's what you did.
	You said this because you've seen it before.
	Kennedy!
	I blame the kids.
	I do, too.
	You know why?
	Because the kids have been soaking their tampons in Tito's, and then they put them in places that we shouldn't talk about on a family program.
	Here, I can tell you, they put them up their butts.
	Is this true?
	Yeah.
	Is any of this true?
	Absolutely.
	Yes, thank you.
	I got an amen and a hallelujah.
	And that is that.
	So they're the ones that have been burning through the good hooch, because anyone who's ever been a teenager or has teenagers, you know, teenagers are dumb.
	So this was a story about...
	By the way, that was a good...
	That would have been teenagers.
	Teenagers are dumb.
	I thought tampons and Tito's...
	Because she didn't say tampons, she said tampons.
	Tampons and Tito.
	Very odd, Kennedy.
	Tito's Vodka.
	Tito's Vodka, yes.
	From your neck of the woods.
	Mm-hmm.
	Right up the road.
	Overpriced vodka from Texas.
	I got to play this clip because, you know, in America, where never a boring moment with the politics...
	There's this huge $3.5 trillion bill, and that's not a piece of money.
	That's a big part of legislation.
	And the more you learn about it, which has now come out, is almost 3,000 pages.
	Both sides playing this like a bunch of dicks.
	Here's the GOP, so that's the Republican side, came out with a big giant stack of paper with a big red price tag dangling from it that said $3.5 trillion!
	They're trying to play to the audience.
	This is their bill.
	2,500 pages.
	If you take a look at $3.5 trillion price tag and you do the math, that's $1,400,000,000 for every page of this bill.
	And they want to pass it this week.
	How many Democrats do you think have read this?
	Think Nancy Pelosi's read it?
	Think Chuck Schumer's read it?
	Do you think Joe Biden, who is desperately begging Democrats to pass it, do you think he's read it?
	Do you think he knows what's in it?
	Have you read it, douche?
	No.
	You know, now I'm starting to understand, now that we've been doing this show for almost 14 years, I never quite understood how, you know, maybe 10 years ago or 8 years ago, but 10...
	I'm like, wow, look at this.
	They're going to shut down the government.
	Or they're doing this and doing that.
	And you were always kind of really...
	But now that I've been through the cycle twice myself, I get it.
	It's like, literally, I want to say, oh, brother!
	You haven't gotten that far.
	No, I'm getting there.
	It's just, you know, it's like, oh, we see this every single time.
	Yeah, you see it over and over again.
	When they want to ram something through and it's huge and it's filled with crap, including $700,000 fines for companies that have unvaccinated, seething, infected human resources in their employ.
	How do you intend to pass something like that if all that kind of crap is in there?
	It seems like it's only intended just to create a fight.
	Well, that's what it does.
	It does a good job.
	So if that's what its intent was, it succeeded.
	But here's the truth.
	Although I think it's purely a mistake, but at least shows you where her head is at.
	This is the Speaker of the House Pelosi, the 80-year-old marm who needs to retire, talking about this.
	Keep government open.
	We have to do those imminently, more imminently even, to address the full Obama agenda of building back better with, and I love to say, building back better.
	So, she says the full Obama agenda, which I think is just...
	Yeah, we all heard it.
	But I think that's really a flub, because it was never the Obama agenda.
	Yeah, it is the brand Obama's agenda.
	And then to say, I just love saying it, Bill Black better.
	I just love...
	It rolls off the tongue, Bill Black better.
	I'm glad we were on that tip.
	Which is still supposed to be, according to President Biden, it's supposed to be the Build Back Better World program, and they're bonding together to mess with China.
	And arguably, it's kind of working.
	The dude named Ben, actually named Ben, the protector of megawatts, got in touch with me.
	He said, oh man, when they boycotted Australian coal, they really screwed themselves.
	All of these blackouts in China is because they are out of coal.
	They can't get enough.
	And that makes sense.
	Well, and they screwed themselves, if that's true.
	Yes, they did, exactly.
	And then the big hydro power plant, I want to say in Zhendong province, only had 30% rainfall, so the reservoir is empty, so that looks like it's going to run out.
	We'll have no more power.
	We have that, too.
	Didn't you tell me that?
	Lake Powell?
	Was that what it was?
	You told me.
	We have a bunch of reservoirs that are low, but I think this year is going to be a wet one for California.
	It's going to bring everything back up to 100%.
	Let's get that sense because we had such a crappy summer.
	I have a bunch of clips.
	I have a million clips left, but I only have one that's kind of funny.
	It might be a good one to end with.
	It's the Dollar Tree report by our CBS woman.
	What's her name?
	I forgot already.
	CBS woman?
	I don't know.
	What's her name?
	You know, the woman that when it looks like a school mom that's stern.
	On CBS? Yeah, the CBS woman that does the reporting for the evening news.
	We talked about it earlier.
	Maureen O'Dowd?
	Oh, brother.
	He said it again.
	Oh, brother.
	I'll play the clip while you go look her up.
	No, wait.
	No, I don't want to look.
	I got to set the clip up.
	Okay.
	So they had her.
	Noreen.
	Is it Noreen?
	How could I lose her name?
	I don't know.
	She's such a dud, she should be fired.
	So she does the, she tries to be funny.
	And she not only isn't funny, she tries to deliver a line at the end of this report, and then she tries to save it with a little mumble thing that she says at the very end, and it is so pathetic.
	Here we go.
	Dollar Tree is breaking the buck.
	The store where nearly everything sells for $1 is now raising prices by up to 50 cents on some items to cover rising costs.
	But I don't think the name $1.50 tree has the same ring to it.
	a saying. - Whoa, sir.
	Is it Martin? - And then she uses the line, she says, I don't think it sounds the same ring to it, as though it's supposed to be...
	I mean, it could be funny if it was delivered by somebody.
	And then she says, just saying, at the very end, to try to like, is that cute?
	Is that supposed to be funny?
	I despise that.
	Just saying.
	Yeah, if you email us with feedback about the show, and you end it with just saying, that's a block.
	That's a block.
	It doesn't work that way.
	You know, you were really wrong.
	I'm telling you that because I know everything about just saying.
	That's how you use it.
	It's in the dictionary.
	It shows how to use it.
	Just saying.
	All right, everybody.
	That will be it for your media deconstruction for today.
	Let me see what we've got coming up on noagendastream.com.
	Oh, it's Hog Story episode 222.
	The Round of Boots featuring special guest me, Adam Curry.
	What?
	Yeah, I was on a boot.
	I did the show.
	Somebody said that this is the most second half of show stuff you've ever done.
	Yes, because they actually were interested in my stories.
	You have to understand, the second half of show has to be a conversation.
	It can't just be me saying something and you going, yeah, whatever.
	Theremin.
	Do they have the theremin?
	No.
	Nora O'Donnell.
	What are we thinking?
	We've got the end of show mixes from Tom Starkweather from...
	Oh, my goodness.
	I can't...
	Neil Jones, the Clip Custodian.
	Also, Thought Doc.
	Coming to you from the heart of Texas Hill Country in FEMA Region No.
	6 in the morning, everybody.
	I'm Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley, we'll get out of this without making a mistake.
	Nora O'Donnell.
	I'm John C. Dvorak.
	We return on Sunday right here on No Agenda.
	Remember us at Dvorak.org.
	Did I say Sunday?
	I said Sunday.
	I just doing Sunday.
	I just yelled Sunday.
	It's Sunday.
	Sunday, Sunday!
	In the morning, everybody.
	I'm Adam Curry.
	Remember us at Dvorak.org slash NA. Until then, adios, mofos, and such.
	And you know what?
	Deploy the National Guard, we're medically trained.
	God did answer our prayers.
	He made the smartest men and women, the scientists, the doctors, the researchers.
	I do hope that we soon get the approvals from the federal government for children and schools to be able to get vaccinated.
	Is your necklace if you talk about this?
	Does it say vax?
	It sure does.
	It's a vax.
	I want to see everybody wearing these.
	But how do we keep more people alive? - I will be signing an executive order to give me the emergency powers necessary to address these shortages where they occur.
	And we'll be nation-leading with our mandate, which strikes at midnight tonight when everyone is expected in a hospital in the state of New York or a healthcare facility to have been vaccinated.
	Yes, I know you're vaccinated.
	You're the smart ones.
	But you know there's people out there who aren't listening to God and what God wants.
	You know who they are.
	This is so unnecessary.
	I need you to be my apostles.
	I need you to go out and talk about it.
	And you know what?
	We are over it.
	We are done.
	We want to move on.
	Release the Kraken.
	My name is Greta Thunberg, and I'm not here to make deals.
	You've now had more than three decades of blah, blah, blah.
	Queen of the tree huggers, Greta Thunberg, is at it again.
	Blah, blah, blah.
	Blah, blah, blah.
	Blah, blah, blah, blah.
	Blah, blah, blah, blah.
	The girl goes around on her private jets, on her boats, leaving carbon footprints while she yells at other people about the fight.
	Blah, blah, blah, blah.
	But wait, there's more!
	Blah, blah, blah.
	Blah, blah, blah, blah.
	Blah, blah, blah.
	Blah, blah, blah.
	Honestly, I think it's funny.
	Blah, blah, blah.
	It's facts.
	Blah, blah, blah.
	You get the point.
	Snapchat logo is brighter.
	That means it consumes more energy when the screen lights up.
	Oh no, you can't do that.
	Hey guys!
	Hey citizen.
	Hey man, fist bump.
	Okay.
	Being a human is hard. .
	Especially if you're a woman.
	Uh...
	Wow.
	Are you talking about pooping?
	Um...
	I'm comfortable talking about poop.
	You can just say poop.
	Okay.
	Not a totally normal thing all humans do, but not all of them like to talk about.
	It's 2021.
	I think everyone knows that women poop.
	Okay.
	I asked my friend who is a nurse and she agrees.
	I love pooping.
	You poop, girl.
	Oh, are you poopsplaining me right now?
	No.
	Wow.
	Don't be shy about pooping.
	Pooping is power.
	This is my favorite part of the day.
	That's exactly how I felt about it.
	I poop.
	She poops.
	All women poop.
	It seems to work.
	I'm a woman.
	Okay.
	And I poop.
	I'm a woman.
	And I poop.
	I'm a woman.
	And I poop.
	Freedom!
	From the tubes?
	Regularly.
	Oh, yeah.
	Thanks for the poop-powerment.
	Wow.
	I'm not saying poop-powerment.
	Family farts.
	And it can even help maintain healthy pH and yeast lymph.
	Oh, are we talking about my vagina now?
	No.
	Get out of my vagina!
	Okay.
	I'm pooping right now.
	Yay!
	I didn't do it on purpose.
	Adios, mofo.
	Thank you.
	It's 15 seconds.
	Boom, boom, in your face.
	Boom, boom, boom.
	In your face.
	TikTok is fantastic.
	TikTok. TikTok.
	TikTok. TikTok.
	TikTok is fantastic.
	You can sit down and watch TikTok for an hour and you entertain.
	And if you can't break yourself loose, you can have a life.
	TikTok dances.
	It's like Top 40 Radio on steroids and crack.
	The best podcast in the universe.
	We'll be right back.
	Adios, mofo.
