	Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak.
	It's Thursday, February 23rd, 2022.
	This is your award-winning Kimo Nation Media Assassination, episode 1428.
	This is No Agenda.
	No Agenda.
	Wagging the dog and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA Region No.
	6.
	Good morning, everybody.
	I'm Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley where we don't see any Russian fighter jets.
	But they're coming.
	I'm John C. Dvorak.
	It's Craig Vaughn and Buzzkill.
	In the morning.
	Oh, my goodness, John.
	What a glorious morning to be a podcaster.
	Well, it's also a glorious morning to have the phone ringing right at the beginning of the podcast.
	Back in the day, we used to take it off the hook.
	You could still do that, I guess.
	I usually do that.
	I still take it off the hook.
	You could still do it with your old school landline.
	Who even has a landline anymore?
	I do.
	I don't.
	I haven't had a landline for a decade.
	Yeah, I just try to minimize the amount of RF going into my brain.
	Yeah, I got ham radios.
	I can direct the RF away from my brain.
	So, first of all, I am so happy whenever the television shows us a new war, we get all kinds of cool opportunities for sound effects.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
	We can do our reporting.
	And they gave us a new one.
	There's a new effect that they used for this missile strike in Ukraine.
	Ukraine.
	Listen.
	How cool is that one?
	Doesn't sound that new to me.
	By the way, were they recording?
	So they had mic'd up to missile strike?
	This is...
	Yeah, of course.
	How did they do that?
	Listen to it.
	It's like a hypersonic super song.
	Listen.
	Oh, it's because of the hypersonic...
	Hold on.
	Listen to it.
	Listen to it.
	What is that?
	I've never heard that one before.
	Very creative.
	I love it.
	I love it.
	Wow, man.
	It looks like Putin was serious when he says he didn't want Ukraine ever to join NATO and he wants it on paper.
	Yeah.
	It sure seems like it.
	We, of course, ignored all this and said, nah.
	Don't worry about it.
	Trust us.
	I got a couple of fun things to start with.
	First of all, let's go back to October 21st, 2021.
	You've got to give the man the props when he does it.
	And I'm talking about Seed Man.
	Listen to what...
	This 30-second clip is quite astounding.
	Wait, wait, wait.
	Who's Steve Man again?
	Seed Man.
	Oh, Seed Man!
	Seed Man!
	Sorry.
	I heard you say Steve Man.
	We're looking at a giant war in February right now.
	Currently, that's the projections with the top people on the Earth who claim they're not with the New World Order Combine.
	There's war in February.
	And...
	This is the type of time, like right before World War I, right before World War II, when everything kicks off.
	And I hope that doesn't happen.
	But currently, that is the trajectory we're on.
	And there is a consensus.
	Way to go, Alex.
	That was a good one.
	That was a great clip.
	The February prediction is spot on.
	I love it.
	So all this began in earnest yesterday, right?
	Well, here's the clip from yesterday, which I guess kind of was the start.
	I mean, I got some mainstream stuff, CBS. In a national address tonight, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy issued a decree calling up military reservists to face off against a threat from Russia.
	President Putin may not have declared his intention to invade Ukraine, but he's dropping plenty of hints and demands.
	That the best resolution to the crisis is for Ukraine to drop its aims to join NATO and international recognition that Crimea is part of Russia.
	Ukrainians agree that the Russian invasion is already underway.
	With the Russian parliament giving Putin the green light to use military force outside the country, the fighting in the east could trigger a full-scale invasion.
	The mood in the capital is more subdued than normal tonight.
	All the people around me, they're worried, they're like, oh my god, we're going to die or something, but I'm okay.
	So all the news networks had their people, boots on the ground.
	This was, hello 1989, hello 1990, Gulf War I. Oh, let's put on a flat jacket, flat jackets.
	Oh, put on the helmets.
	This is a psyop of fantastic proportions.
	I mean, there's some real things happening, but holy crap!
	Well, the point I was trying to get to, which was that we got a lot of notes on the No Agenda Social.
	It's a good thing it started.
	Yesterday, and not on a show day, because of things they were supposed to do.
	I know.
	Thank God.
	They shot up the airport and they did some other stuff.
	So I think the thing started yesterday, which brings us to an earlier point we made weeks ago, which now changes everything.
	Wars in Europe never start on Wednesday.
	Okay.
	So that was bullcrap.
	Yeah, do we have that clip?
	What was that?
	I don't remember.
	It's back there.
	It's because of the last Wednesday was when it was supposed to start.
	Here it is.
	Speaking of intelligence, U.S. officials and others have heavily pointed towards this week about the potential start of an invasion.
	Specifically today, there was a lot of alarm across Twitter.
	Can you explain why it hasn't materialized?
	We've said for some time now that we are in a window where Putin could order an invasion or an attack on Ukraine at a moment's notice.
	That has been the case for some time precisely because this buildup of Russian forces along Ukraine's borders in Belarus, other tactics and moves that we've seen have poised, have positioned Russia to be able to do this at any moment.
	That remains our assessment.
	It could take place tomorrow.
	It could take place next week.
	It could take place before the end of the Olympics.
	It could take place after the Olympics.
	I want to be very clear.
	Our concern has not diminished an iota.
	And in fact, our concern continues to grow, given that we have yet to see de-escalation.
	And given that...
	I guess not.
	In the absence of...
	I guess not.
	That's not the clip.
	Sorry about that.
	It's okay.
	But John, just looking at it on its face, and looking at the people showing up, and I actually have categories of talking heads who have showed up all of a sudden on the scene, and the things that are being said.
	This escalated so quickly, and it was...
	I mean, we completely set all of this up, and as far as I can tell...
	I'm getting old footage from 2015.
	Nothing is trustworthy.
	Everybody is psyoping everybody.
	Everybody's lying.
	Putin's lying.
	Biden's lying.
	Zelensky's lying.
	The mainstream media's lying.
	The only people who are happy today and really smart are the ones who invested in energy stocks.
	Come on.
	Rocky Martin people aren't...
	And war, yes, and war, and war stuff, of course, of course, but the immediate bump is for oil.
	The funny thing is, today's market, just to kind of go there for a second, Amazon, Google, and Microsoft are all pretty well up today.
	Because they know what's coming.
	Why those three?
	Oh, because we're going into, I think we're going into severe issues like order from home again.
	Well, Amazon, that would make sense there.
	Work from home.
	It feels like it's coming.
	What did you say?
	Order from home.
	Work from the store.
	Order from home.
	All right, all right, all right.
	Hey, COVID. Hey, I thought you were over COVID. You got the sniffles.
	Yeah, my voice is a little higher.
	Your voice is not...
	It's not exactly the same.
	The opening was hard for me.
	Your voice is a little off.
	I don't consider it major.
	Tina has it.
	I just want to mention.
	Oh, she probably gave it back to you.
	How's she doing, by the way?
	Why don't you give us a little report on that before we get into the nuts and bolts here.
	She went okay.
	She had very little fever, and she looks fine.
	She looks beautiful, of course, but she looks just fine.
	And I know that she's like, holy crap, I don't feel good.
	Yeah, I know.
	She calls it a matrix glitch.
	Because you get this weird tunnel vision or video clips that are freeze-frame on the right.
	Brain frog is what people are calling it.
	Brain frog is better, actually.
	There's a show title.
	Brain frog.
	Today is better, but that's the weird thing about this.
	It comes and it goes and you get...
	I don't think I have anything else, but...
	I'm guardedly optimistic, I should say.
	So otherwise, okay, really.
	She knows it doesn't feel like a flu because it doesn't have all those classic symptoms.
	It has weird symptoms.
	Yeah, that's the weird thing.
	Someone mentioned us they had COVID toenail pain.
	Oh, that COVID toe, yeah.
	COVID toe.
	Have we talked about COVID toe?
	Yeah, we did.
	Well, when JC and Jesse got COVID, the alpha, it turned out that Theo ended up with COVID, though.
	Oh, no!
	Yeah.
	The adorable?
	The adorable four years old.
	He didn't have any other symptoms, but he had this toe thing.
	Weird.
	Well, we'll get to that.
	There's other weird stuff going on.
	Let's just stick with Russia because this is so fun.
	Can we start with the genesis of all the reporting that we're going to report on?
	Yeah, of course.
	Which is yesterday's State Department briefing with Ned Price.
	Yes.
	Ned.
	Hey, Ned!
	So Ned is the same, you know, kind of steady-as-she-goes weirdo.
	Ex-CIA. Ex-CIA. And he comes out and gives this little report, and then he goes right to Matt, and Matt has nothing to ask that's interesting.
	I didn't even include him, they were so bad.
	Started off being, I wanted to talk about Houthis.
	So it's mostly Ned that we're going to hear.
	I think there's one person that comes in with some questions.
	But this is yesterday's State Department briefing.
	Good afternoon.
	As we have noted in recent days and recent hours, Russia's invasion of Ukraine is beginning.
	Hours after Russia recognized the so-called Donetsk and Luhansk People's Republic as quote-unquote independent, President Putin authorized Russian troops to enter those regions.
	He has taken other steps that amount to a direct assault on Ukraine's sovereignty.
	We responded and turned quickly and decisively.
	Within less than a day, we'd announced the first tranche of sanctions with our allies and partners, including those in the European Union, the United Kingdom, Canada, Japan, and Australia.
	Our German allies yesterday took resolute action to ensure that the Nord Stream 2 pipeline, what had been a prized $11 billion investment on the part of the Russian Federation, is suspended indefinitely.
	And as you have just seen, President Biden today...
	Authorized sanctions on Nord Stream 2 AG and its corporate office holders.
	We have now taken complementary action using our own authorities to ensure that Nord Stream 2 is off the table just as we said it would be.
	In lockstep with our allies, we are blocking from the global financial system two large banks that are connected to the Kremlin and Russian military, and Russian sovereign wealth can no longer trade on U.S. or European financial markets.
	As you all know, we additionally sanctioned Russian elites, those elites who are in many ways complicit.
	This is the beginning of our response.
	If Putin escalates further, we will escalate further using additional sanctions and export controls, which we've yet to unveil, but are fully prepared to implement with allies and partners across the globe.
	So these sanctions were pretty lame.
	Because the, I think maybe the sanctions for the access to U.S. credit markets, that may be new, but from what I understand, the certification of the Nord Stream was not really even planned until this summer, so it rings a little hollow.
	But this is all the ramp-up, right, to the SWIFT. That's the one they're going for, is banning Russia from the financial system.
	That's going to happen today, I guess.
	They're going to do that.
	They've been talking about it.
	That's their big thing.
	That's the big stick we have.
	I think it's a mistake.
	Of course it's a mistake, unless you love Bitcoin.
	Then I would stick with my premise.
	Let's go to part two of this guy.
	Okay, we'll see you on the other end.
	The sequence of events that Secretary Blinken laid out at the UN Security Council last week appears to be proceeding exactly as he laid out.
	We've seen false flags.
	False flags!
	We've seen provocations.
	We've seen theatrically staged meetings at the Kremlin.
	We've seen cyber operations.
	Oh, I've got to stop.
	Unlike our president who had a whole studio built, I mean, is that the kind of fake things that we're talking about?
	This is great.
	He's referring to the giant table.
	Yeah.
	And also a more recent meeting where Putin is like a mile away from all these people.
	Now, the intelligence folks themselves said that Putin is like deathly afraid of COVID. He knows what it is, doesn't want to get it, so he doesn't get any around anybody.
	So I guess this is dramatically staged or whatever Ned said.
	Okay, fine.
	Let's keep going with Ned.
	This is fun.
	We've seen theatrically staged meetings at the Kremlin.
	I guess what I'm saying is, here's a CIA guy accusing Putin of doing CIA shit.
	The irony is not lost on anyone.
	This is the level of beauty.
	We've seen cyber operations, and the list goes on.
	So where do we go from here?
	Moscow needs to demonstrate that it's serious about diplomacy.
	Russia's actions over the last 48 hours have, in fact, demonstrated the opposite.
	If Moscow's approach changes, we remain ready to engage.
	The United States and our allies and partners remain open to diplomacy.
	We are eager to engage to avert what would be a brutal and costly conflict.
	But, as we have said, diplomacy cannot succeed unless Russia changes course.
	As we have said, we are prepared.
	We are prepared for any contingency going forward.
	So the question is, Does the American public buy this ruse that we should be paying $6, $7, $8 a gallon for gasoline because of Ukraine?
	I don't think they've done a very good job convincing anybody.
	Well, I think they can...
	I think they're going to blame Biden.
	Oh, no.
	No, no, no.
	Uh-oh.
	Sorry.
	I have proof that you're wrong about that.
	Well, let's finish up with Ned then because there's something he said later.
	Now, the Russians have already...
	I mean, this is before they bombed the airport, which was at 5 a.m.
	this morning, I think, which would have been...
	Which airport?
	Which airport?
	The Kiev airport.
	Mm-hmm.
	Was supposedly shelled.
	Yeah, honestly, John, I'm getting stuff from a lot of people and I don't believe any of it.
	Yeah, I don't believe anything that anyone says either.
	To me, it looks like military drills that they filmed and now everything's blowing.
	I have a hard time believing a lot of this.
	Well, let's just assume it did happen.
	Okay.
	But they've already moved in.
	I'm pretty sure they did something with the Donbass and those two breakaway countries.
	Probably the same as we've seen every single time that the Donbass region started it.
	Georgia was the...
	Yes!
	Same thing.
	And they said, oh, Russia started it.
	No.
	No.
	Well, let's just get back to this clip coming up as opposed to arguing about it.
	We'll see about this one.
	Sorry.
	Great.
	So, it's like, we're assuming everything they tell us is true, the State Department, which means that the Russians have moved in on the Donbass as a peacekeeping operation to keep the poor Russians that are in that area from being attacked by the Ukrainian army.
	Yes.
	And they're going to back it off and...
	So the Russians have invaded, for all practical purposes, and as of this morning, they've invaded.
	I want you to listen to this clip from the State Department with that in mind.
	What I'll say about those reports is they are entirely consistent with what we have been saying for some time now, that Russia has amassed forces along Ukraine's borders in Belarus, positioned the assets, the heavy weaponry, the soldiers, the service members it would need to undertake an invasion of Ukraine at a moment's notice.
	That has been true for some time now.
	Okay.
	Well, if they've already invaded, how are they going to invade?
	I don't know.
	I've listened to this clip and it goes on and it's like they do some time shifting in this press conference that just doesn't make any sense.
	Just saying it just seems to be odd both the way he presents all these details and the way he's talking about things that Supposedly already happened.
	Yeah, I agree.
	I agree.
	And whenever someone is sitting there saying, this guy's done false flags, he's done theatrics.
	Please, people.
	And it's like the world is on fire.
	Oh, we'll have to all be freaking out.
	No, not at all.
	Because Biden's not to blame, John.
	Gosh, I can't believe...
	I have the little stickers...
	No, no, no, no.
	...that say, I did that, and it points at the gas price.
	No, no, no, no.
	A lot of it had to do, they say, with Ukraine.
	But, Mr.
	President...
	You know, it's very interesting.
	It's very...
	I'm sorry, that's not the one I wanted to play.
	That was also good.
	This is the one.
	Why didn't Putin do this during the Trump administration?
	Because he thought Trump was weakening Ukraine, especially on these grounds.
	So the problem of Ukraine being unfortified goes back several years, and much of the fault lies in the Trump administration.
	Just to go back to the Trump years, because that's when Ukraine became so politicized.
	There was one call in particular, the so-called perfect call that Trump had.
	With, you know, Zelensky.
	Oh, listen to Andrea with a little tell laugh.
	There was one call in particular, the so-called perfect call that Trump had with, you know, Zelensky, which, you know, certainly telegraphed to the Kremlin that they could do what they wanted with Ukraine, that America would not stand up.
	Do you get it now?
	It's Trump's fault.
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	You're right.
	Those little stickers should have a picture of Trump saying that.
	Yes, I did that.
	Exactly.
	Oh, okay.
	I get it.
	Let's go to the front lines.
	Oh, I see.
	None of this is Biden's fault.
	Obviously, it's Trump's fault.
	Orange!
	Orange man bad.
	Let's go to the front lines of Ukraine with CBS Evening News.
	Today, as we approached the front line, there was heavy artillery fire.
	Get a Brit in there.
	It sounds good when you have war.
	We estimate just a few hundred yards away.
	A few hundred yards.
	Oh, let me get my jacket on.
	Those actually sound quite close now.
	Put my helmet on.
	My mask.
	Put your mask.
	Maybe eight or nine at this point.
	These Ukrainian soldiers told us it was Russian-backed separatists firing on their front-line positions.
	Ukraine's been fighting a war against Russian-backed separatists for nearly eight years.
	These muddy trenches now carve up this country.
	The Ukrainian military on one side, armed by the U.S., and fighters in breakaway regions now recognized by Russia on the other.
	Note, armed by the U.S. Good job!
	In recent days, there's been an escalation in the attacks, some hitting civilian areas, sending people into their basements for shelter.
	There's no electricity, no cell phone signal, and nobody cares about us, said this elderly lady.
	And today, the Ukrainians...
	Nice little human interest bid in there.
	Let's just replay that so we get where we feel.
	I bet it was one of those toothless women.
	You know what I mean?
	Toothless.
	There's no electricity, no cell phone signal, and nobody cares about us, said this elderly lady.
	And today the Ukrainians buried two of their fallen soldiers, killed in a conflict that's torn this country apart.
	U.S. officials say Moscow is arming the separatists, and there are fears that the surge in fighting could be used by Russia as a justification for its own military action.
	Okay.
	That was all yesterday.
	And this morning, right there on CNBC, which I prefer to watch because I want to see, you know, what the money people are talking about, they literally said, oh, there's heavy fighting between Russia and Ukrainian forces at Chernobyl, in the Chernobyl exclusion zone.
	This thing could blow again.
	I don't think there's an active reactor there anymore.
	Do you?
	Of course not.
	They've buried it in cement.
	Yeah, they capped that thing.
	But okay.
	It's called entombed.
	Entombed, yes.
	Thank you.
	And then maybe just the final terror report and we can go into some of the shows.
	Somebody actually said it would blow again?
	Yeah, on CNBC. I couldn't clip it.
	I was watching the streaming thing.
	Oh yeah.
	This is so nuts.
	Let's just listen to the ABC report where they just talk about the full-scale invasion.
	I want to bring in our senior foreign correspondent, Ian Pannell, who's been reporting live from Kyiv for several weeks now.
	And Ian, you reported moments ago that you have heard some noise already off in the distance.
	Yeah, the distinct sound of explosions on the horizon here in Kiev.
	We've heard at least four, what appear to be strikes, lighting up the night sky.
	Just in the last, really, ten minutes or so, as you say, it looks like the darkest day, has come to pass following this speech by Vladimir Putin.
	We decided to launch this special military operation calling on the Ukrainian military to lay down its arms.
	Talking about the denazification and demilitarization of Ukraine.
	I mean, judging by those words, this appears to be the worst case scenario, potentially.
	We have to wait and see.
	Not just forces moving into the east, these rebel-held areas.
	But potentially moving on other parts of the country.
	This seems to be a much larger ambition.
	It's no longer just about the Donbass, this industrial heartland in the east of the country.
	It doesn't really seem to be just about Ukraine per se.
	He again warned foreign countries not to interfere.
	He talked about NATO expansionism.
	And I think there you have it, really, what Vladimir Putin is really concerned about, about restoring the might of Russia at the expense of the people of Ukraine.
	This is once again a British voice.
	I want everyone to take note of these things.
	These are spooks.
	This is the early spook advance team.
	They come onto the news.
	They're all Brits.
	They're all talking.
	They set the narrative, set the tone.
	The Ukrainian president has spoken three times over the last three nights.
	He's been very clear that he will not leave the capital of Kiev despite being instructed to do so.
	By the Americans, or suggested that he do so by the Americans, that he and the people will stand and fight.
	And that's what we've been hearing from the Ukrainian military and from people who were called up in the last few hours.
	They've gone from being civilians to now being soldiers having to fight on the front line.
	We have to wait and see what targets were struck here in Kiev and reports of explosions in other areas.
	What is the military objective here?
	Okay, so that's the advanced team.
	Now we need to bring in the military-industrial complex.
	We're going to stay with ABC. Colonel Steve...
	What's his name here?
	Hold on a second.
	Colonel Steve Ganyard.
	Retired U.S. Marine Corps.
	What do you think he does these days?
	He works for an arms sub-dealer.
	Yes, Avacent.
	A-V-A-S-C-E-E-N-T. Their industries are aerospace and defense.
	So he's going to tell us all the truth about Ukraine.
	And he just sounds like a military guy, but he's a shill for the military-industrial complex.
	Russia seems to have struck first here, so how can Ukraine respond?
	Right there.
	Russia seems to have struck first.
	Russia seems to have struck first here, so how can Ukraine respond?
	Are they prepared militarily to respond to a Russian invasion?
	They are much improved.
	The U.S. and NATO countries have been working with them to improve their military since they were whipped in 2014 by the Russians in the Crimea and in the Donbass.
	So they've gotten better.
	Hey.
	They were whipped?
	Yeah.
	In Crimea?
	Do you remember any battle taking place in Crimea?
	Russia just walked in and annexed the place with a phony baloney or possibly a real election, if you recall.
	That was a referendum.
	Yeah, it was a referendum.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, there was no whipping.
	Yeah, we'd rather be with you because you're going to give us money and the Ukrainians are broke.
	And they just walked out of the place.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	That's called whipping.
	What was the fighting he's talking about?
	There was no fighting.
	It was the most peaceful takeover ever.
	Yeah.
	2014 by the Russians.
	So this guy's lying to us?
	What?
	...Cremea and in the Donbass.
	So they've gotten better.
	The problem is that the Russian military has also gotten much better.
	Over the last 15 years or so, Mr.
	Putin has put a lot of money into improving the Russian military in a way that makes it easier.
	Very, very capable military once again and sort of reflecting that past glory of the Cold War.
	That means that the Ukrainians, even though they sort of match up man for man on the ground...
	They need more of our stuff!
	It still means that the technological advantages that the Russian Army, Russian military, Russian Air Force has really is going to be no match.
	Will Mr.
	Putin be able to take large parts of Ukraine?
	Yes.
	It may take weeks, it may take months, but eventually he'll be able to do that.
	What he will not be able to do is be able to hold that territory.
	You think about it, it takes about three to one in terms of the number of troops.
	So if he has 150, 170,000 troops around here, if he's going to even hold this much of Ukraine, he's going to need double or triple that.
	And he can't afford that.
	He goes into an election in two years from now and can't have body bags coming home From some bloody occupation like he saw in Chechnya.
	So it's probably going to be a get in, get out.
	I think we heard that tonight where he says he doesn't want to hold terrain, wants to teach the government a lesson.
	What that lesson is, is yet to be to see.
	So get in, get out.
	Not really going to do anything.
	But man, he's got technology.
	We should be very worried about that.
	We need to buy more from Avacyn.
	That was his sales pitch.
	There's no doubt about it.
	Well, he's not over.
	For the Ukrainian's defense, how does the mobilization of reservists help?
	Because really what they're going to have to do is fight sort of a militia.
	And another laugh tell.
	Why?
	Why is he laughing about them having to fight?
	Play it again.
	For the Ukrainians' defense, how does the mobilization of reservists help?
	Because really what they're going to have to do is fight sort of a militia.
	I mean, is it funny to him?
	Does he think it's bullcrap?
	Does he think that they have no chance against the militia?
	I don't know.
	Insurgency.
	So remember, we saw insurgencies in Iraq and Afghanistan that we had to fight.
	It's actually quite difficult because you have people who believe in the defense of their country, that they've been invaded by a country.
	They're very proud that the national spirit of Ukraine has grown since the independence in 1991 from Russia.
	So you have Russians invading and killing Ukrainians.
	And so what they're going to have to do after they eventually get overrun is sort of go into the militias.
	What?
	I think there was another laugh tale when he said they're going to get overrun.
	You have Russians invading and killing Ukrainians, and so what they're going to have to do after they eventually get overrun.
	So when he does that, this is even better than the first one, what they're going to have to do when they eventually get overrun.
	I mean, does he think that's not going to happen?
	Is he gleeful that it will happen?
	These laugh tales are...
	The fact that you caught...
	We're catching a lot of them, but there's probably more that we're not catching, I have to assume, because they really shoot by really fast and you have to be on your toes.
	But it really is a giveaway that there's something phony baloney about this guy and what he's talking about.
	You don't laugh about that.
	Oh, yeah, the Russians are going to kill a million people.
	And so what they're going to have to do after they eventually get overrun is sort of go into the militias and fight a guerrilla war.
	And that ends up being very, very bloody, not only for the Ukrainians, but eventually for the Russians.
	I think he knows it's bullcrap that none of this is going to happen.
	He's talking about guerrilla warfare.
	That doesn't make any sense.
	Last short clip from him.
	And Colonel, last question here.
	American troops are overseas right now.
	What kind of support could they provide Ukraine and how will they engage?
	Zero.
	It'll be...
	Oh!
	Wow!
	Why does he crack up?
	Let's see what that was about.
	And Colonel, last question here.
	American troops are overseas right now.
	What kind of support could they provide Ukraine and how will they engage?
	Zero.
	Okay.
	I know what that means.
	I know what this tell is.
	Because American troops support zero.
	Instead, we do something called advisors.
	Remember that?
	The advisors in Syria, the advisors.
	Yeah, we send to the advisors.
	Yeah, the advisors, in essence, they said, watch, I'll show you how you shoot.
	I'll show you how you do it, Ukrainian.
	That's what the advisors do.
	Crikey.
	So he knows that this is bullcrap.
	It'll be.
	President Biden has made it very clear that this is not our fight.
	So Ukraine is not a member of NATO. It's never going to be a member of NATO. Someday maybe it'll be a member of the EU. But it is not our fight.
	It's not NATO's fight.
	But it is still very, very concerning.
	If you think about it, Andrew, this part of the world has a really bad track record for small wars turning into brush fires and world wars.
	So it's one of those things that needs to be watched because there's a lot of historical overhang here.
	That's quite scary.
	Oh, it's quite scary.
	Okay, good job.
	Go pick up your check, Shil.
	Now, over at CBS, 60 Minutes, they had to go a little more intellectual because that's their brand.
	And they brought in Dmitry Kuleba, who is currently the Minister of Foreign Affairs for Ukraine.
	And he previously worked as the Deputy Prime Minister of Ukraine for European and Euro-Atlantic integration.
	So, another shill!
	Let's see what he has to say.
	In the early 90s, when the Soviet Union broke up and Ukraine became an independent country, you gave up your nuclear weapons.
	You had a giant arsenal, I think the third largest nuclear arsenal in the world.
	You agreed to send the nukes back to Russia, and in return you got security guarantees from the United States and from Russia.
	Do you all look back on that and say, we should not given up our nuclear weapons?
	It was a mistake?
	I do.
	Do you feel that the United States owes you?
	Partially.
	You know, whatever mistakes were made in history, our current life gives all of us excellent opportunities to correct those mistakes.
	And given the fact that we abandoned our nuclear arsenal, given the fact that the security assurances that were given to us failed, Some countries should feel responsibility for this and work hard on finding the right and efficient security guarantee for Ukraine.
	Yeah, so that guy will never be invited back.
	He just didn't do a good job.
	Not a good job.
	Well, a couple.
	And the thing is, her and her leading questions, those were never Ukraine's nukes.
	It's not as though they developed a bunch of capability.
	No.
	They were Russian products, and they were Russian run by the Russians.
	It wasn't, you know, it was if they still had it, they probably blow themselves up.
	So now that we have this situation, we need to scare the American public.
	We need to set them up.
	Confusing, conflicting messages here in the U.S. growing concerns about Russian cyber attacks.
	Authorities are most concerned about the electrical grid, communication networks, pipelines, water facilities, banks.
	National security officials have been warning business leaders and local governments.
	Yeah, baby.
	If there ever was a time for the Great Reset, this is it.
	Did Russia do it?
	Three suspected white supremacists face up to 15 years in prison for plotting an attack on the U.S. power grid.
	What?
	The men from Ohio, Indiana, and Wisconsin have pleaded guilty to conspiracy charges.
	Prosecutors say the men were trying to ignite a race war and plan to use rifles to attack power stations, hoping it would lead to a financial crisis and civil war.
	So the same report, except saying white supremacists will do it, or was it Russians who were going to do it?
	Cyber attacks.
	Come on.
	Just unplug the grid already.
	What was that thrown in for?
	It's the same day, two different reports.
	They can't even make up their mind.
	I'd like to get a hold of that, find out more about that.
	Here's supply chain.
	By the way, how's beefing up the grid into some modern form going to change anyone from shooting up the place with long rifles?
	Long guns.
	What am I saying?
	Long guns.
	Now, what else can this result in?
	Well, it's gonna suck real bad, everybody.
	Another concern for Americans?
	Rising prices at the supermarket.
	Ukraine, known as Europe's breadbasket, and Russia account for nearly 30% of the global wheat market.
	The White House says Americans should be prepared for rising food and gas prices.
	What we're seeing as the impact of not enough competition in the industry.
	But the president has repeatedly expressed concern about costs for the American people.
	That's one of the reasons he continues to press for steps with Congress that will lower significant costs on people's budgets.
	And Russia is also a key producer of copper and aluminum.
	The war could cause more supply chain disruptions.
	Turns out they also do fertilizer.
	John, I just have to say that The more I look at this great reset idea, the more I think they're making it happen.
	I mean, Europe is screwed.
	They're paying...
	Oh, Europe is totally closed.
	Someone just...
	One of the trolls just posted they're paying €1.60 per liter of gasoline.
	So there's, what, three and a half liters to a gallon, I think?
	Or is it five?
	I like that, yeah.
	Or is it five?
	Let me see.
	Well, Norway's always been up in that league.
	Of course, nobody drives.
	Well, no.
	Well, you're looking at it.
	I have a Russian gas price clip.
	Play that.
	Hold on a second.
	Um...
	Got it.
	The Russian military buildup that's threatening Ukraine is also driving up global energy prices.
	Oil has come close to $100 a barrel, which we haven't seen since 2014.
	And U.S. sanctions on Russia could push prices higher.
	President Biden says defending freedom will have costs, but he also wants to protect Americans' pocketbooks.
	I want to limit the pain that American people are feeling at the gas pump.
	This is critical to me.
	NPR's Camila Domenoski joins us to talk about how oil markets are reacting and what's ahead.
	Hi, Camila.
	Hi, Aisha.
	So, oil prices are already close to $100 a barrel.
	How much worse could this get?
	Well, remember that prices were relatively high even before this crisis.
	And just the risk that a war could affect supply is what's already pushed prices up to here.
	So if things deteriorate, we really could see a dramatic jump.
	Some analysts think we could set new records.
	And that's because Russia is a major oil and natural gas producer.
	It's in the top three, right up there with the U.S. and Saudi Arabia.
	Battles could disrupt pipelines, sanctions could block exports, or Russia could slash exports to Europe strategically.
	Any of those things mean supply goes down and prices go up.
	Yeah, so I did the math.
	It's 3.7 liters to the gallon times 1.6 euros, 5.92 euros is $6.15.
	Getting there.
	Getting there.
	Yeah, well, it's almost hitting $6 in parts of California as we speak.
	Yeah.
	What's that?
	There's a dog in here.
	Oh, no.
	It's a dog whining.
	Do you need to take the dog out?
	Hey, what are you doing?
	Oh, man.
	Yes, sir.
	All right, stop the war.
	Stop the war, everybody.
	We'll be right back.
	This Intermezzo brought to you by John's Dog.
	Pull it!
	Who let the dogs out?
	Who let the dogs out?
	Are you back?
	Yeah.
	Oh, okay.
	Everything?
	No, that's okay.
	That's annoying.
	No, come on, man.
	It's just a dog.
	I just don't like...
	You shouldn't be kicking her, though.
	That was not cool.
	Don't kick her.
	Don't kick your dog.
	Yes, you did.
	I heard it.
	I heard it.
	You dog abuser.
	Ah, okay.
	Reset.
	We're going back to the sanctions.
	I want to talk about sanctions for a second.
	I have three clips.
	We'll go back to President Biden warning Russia.
	Today, President Biden warned Vladimir Putin was laying the groundwork to launch a large-scale incursion into Ukraine.
	This is the beginning of a Russian invasion of Ukraine.
	That's interesting.
	She says incursion and the president comes in with invasion.
	I don't know if that's purposeful or...
	I think this is very poorly coordinated.
	Incursion into Ukraine.
	This is the beginning of a Russian invasion of Ukraine.
	It sounded like he wanted to say incursion.
	He's made some bad prompter gaffes in this thing.
	He's no good.
	This is the beginning of a Russian invasion of Ukraine.
	Putin's decision to send troops into two Moscow-backed breakaway regions of Ukraine while recognizing their independence has deepened the crisis.
	Who in the Lord's name does Putin think gives him the right to declare new so-called countries?
	I don't think this came out right.
	Who in the Lord's name does he think is the name of the person who can tell what?
	Deepend the crisis.
	Who in the Lord's name does Putin think gives him the right to declare new so-called countries on territory that belong to his neighbors?
	This is a flagrant violation of international law.
	In response, the administration announced sanctions against two Russian financial firms and the country's sovereign debt, cutting it off from Western financing, plus sanctions on top Putin cronies and their family members.
	European allies also countered.
	Germany halted action on the Nord Stream 2 pipeline, a top Putin project that would carry natural gas from Russia.
	But it's unknown if the new penalties will stop Putin, who has up to 190,000 troops.
	We have 190 now?
	It was 50, 100, then we heard 150, and all of a sudden 40,000 extra.
	Overnight, 190.
	And today, in a potentially grim sign of things to come, the Russian parliament authorized the use of military force abroad.
	This is the most dangerous moment in European security for a generation.
	Despite a pledge not to get into a shooting war with Russia, Mr.
	Biden announced he is sending new firepower to the region.
	Up to eight fighter jets and 32 helicopters, along with approximately 800 additional U.S. troops that will beef up NATO's eastern flank.
	At home, some Republicans called for tougher actions now.
	The Biden administration has misjudged Putin about as badly as anyone since the world misjudged Hitler.
	I want a sanctions regime from hell next week.
	Wait, wait, wait.
	You've got to hear what he says about the sanctions regime.
	Misjudged Hitler.
	I want a sanctions regime from hell next week.
	But President Biden warned that sanctions could also cut off some oil supplies, driving up already high gas prices.
	Hey Georgia, vote that dick out of office.
	Lady G, Lindsey Graham.
	South Carolina.
	I'm sorry.
	Vote them all out.
	This guy, what a douche knuckle.
	I want heart.
	I want real sanctions.
	I want the sanctions from hell.
	Well, the only thing left on the table in the sanctions from hell is removal from the financial payment system.
	That's the only thing they've announced.
	And of course, we won't have any meetings in Finland.
	All right, Margaret, on the diplomatic front, those meetings that were supposed to take place, those seem to be done.
	I mean, is diplomacy dead?
	Well, this was already a diplomatic Hail Mary pass.
	Jeez, how about the metaphors, huh?
	Is diplomacy dead?
	Hail Mary pass!
	This was already a diplomatic Hail Mary pass, and clearly it's not going anywhere.
	Vladimir Putin had very low regard for the idea of even talking.
	What we know is that the war is already underway, and Vladimir Putin may be testing just how far he can go.
	He is already strangling Ukraine's economy.
	He is taking bites out of their territory.
	And so what happens next may determine how far he goes.
	What he knows is two clear things.
	No country in the world is going to send troops to defend his country.
	And that all of these sanctions hurt European economies.
	And there's also a bite back here at home with the United States.
	I mean, President Biden's already dealing with inflation at a 40-year high, and now oil is trading at $100 a barrel.
	Sounds like we're getting the sanctions.
	Just saying.
	We're getting screwed.
	Last sanctions clip.
	The president tried to make the case that the West is united against Putin.
	Any sign that that has deterred him.
	It has not deterred him.
	He's willing to take this pain, at least so far.
	And so this may be a chess game of where does that line...
	He's not paying for gas.
	What?
	He's not buying gas.
	It's like you have to say, you know, some of these observers have noted.
	All these elites are saying, well, so what if the gas goes to $8 a gallon?
	It should be that anyway because it encourages use of electrical vehicles.
	And this is all part of it.
	This is exactly...
	It's hard for me not to see all these connections.
	The financial system...
	By the way, if you throw Russia out of SWIFT, Doesn't that help burn a lot of dollars they have virtually?
	Because they just got virtual dollars.
	They don't have stacks of suitcases.
	They may have some stacks and pallets.
	But doesn't that burn a lot of cash?
	I don't know.
	I can't say that's true.
	Maybe?
	I'm just thinking it could.
	What they're doing, which is the annoying part, is that if any of this is even...
	half of what they're telling us.
	They're pushing Russia into the direction that since Nixon opened up China with Kissinger and allowed China to become part of the world community, it's doing what they've been trying it's doing what they've been trying to prevent since the end of World War II, which is turning Russia and China into close buddies.
	Eurasia.
	They generally don't like each other, but we've always been trying to keep them apart because if the two of them became dynamite.
	The Chinese could open factories in Russia, show them how to build things.
	The Russians could feed the Chinese.
	The Russians could give them all the gas back and forth.
	The two of them combined would be a powerhouse.
	And so what are we up to here?
	What are we accomplishing?
	Great reset!
	It has not deterred him.
	He's willing to take this pain, at least so far.
	And so this may be a chess game of where does that line get crossed.
	What we know is that the administration's argument to date has been, this time it'll be different.
	That sanctions, yes, they're usually punitive, not preventative.
	This time they're so much tougher because they're going after the oligarchs at the bank and the banks that it will deter him.
	Obviously it didn't.
	But we know President Biden has said he's holding some sledgehammer sanctions in reserve to escalate if Putin goes further.
	So many people watching to see if Putin takes that move and takes the capital of Kiev.
	Margaret Brennan, thank you.
	Takes the capital.
	Do you think we'll see Putin taking the capital of Kiev?
	All I've heard was there's some shelling and jets.
	I haven't heard about troops.
	No.
	Gaff from the president.
	This was kind of just a fun little gaff he made.
	Russia is making the global peace and stability.
	Yesterday, the world heard clearly the full extent of Vladimir Putin's twisted rewrite of history, going back more than a century as he waxed eloquently.
	Noting that, well, I'm not going to go into it, but nothing in Putin's lengthy remarks indicate any interest in pursuing real dialogue.
	So he flubbed the prompter.
	He said, noting instead of nothing.
	And then he plays it off.
	Well, I'm not going to get into that.
	Listen again.
	Going back more than a century, as he waxed eloquently.
	Noting that, well, I'm not going to go into it, but nothing in Putin's length of remarks indicate any interest in pursuing real dialogue.
	So he said noting instead of nothing, and then he had to ad-lib his way out of that the best he could, and then he said nothing and then followed with a prompter.
	So we're really fortunate as a podcast.
	We have a lot of Russians.
	A lot of people who speak all the dialects, Russian, Ukrainian.
	Sir Gene has been in constant contact.
	If you ask Sir Gene, you say, who's lying?
	He says, they're all lying.
	It's all crap.
	And the Russians are very skeptical of their own government, too.
	Well, they've been cynical since...
	Cynical, that's the right word.
	Cynical.
	Since the Russian Revolution.
	And rightly so.
	Now, if you have any other clips, let's play them, because then I have just...
	I got the NPR rundown.
	Good, good, good.
	Let's do those.
	Notice how jacked up I am.
	Good, good, good.
	Oh, goody, yeah.
	War is good for podcasting.
	By the way, my mother used to say good, good, good.
	Oh, really?
	So is it triggering for you?
	It's very triggering.
	It's upsetting.
	Okay.
	Sorry.
	Let's go Ukraine update Wednesday 1.
	The White House says the request by Ukrainian separatists for Russian military assistance in the face of supposed aggression by Ukraine's government is the sort of false flag operation the West has been warning about.
	Basically a pretext for invasion on Russia's part.
	U.S. also announced today the imposition of further sanctions and the movement of U.S. troops and military equipment to support NATO's eastern flank.
	Pentagon spokesman John Kirby saying today only Russian President Vladimir Putin knows what happens next.
	Russian forces continue to assemble closer to the border and put themselves in an advanced stage of readiness to act, to conduct military action in Ukraine, again, at virtually any time now.
	The Pentagon has estimated upwards of 190,000 Russian troops are on the border with Ukraine, 80 percent of whom, it estimates, are now combat ready.
	I don't know, but there's something there.
	I'm not sure what it is anymore.
	Go play part two.
	Ukraine, meanwhile, has declared a state of emergency as Russian forces are poised to enter the country's eastern breakaway provinces, as what Russian President Vladimir Putin has called peacekeepers.
	NPR's Eleanor Beardsley is in eastern Ukraine.
	After President Vladimir Putin's angry speech Monday, many Ukrainians believe Russian troops will not stop at the separatist-occupied territories, but move to take the entire provinces of Donetsk and Luhansk.
	Several hundred residents have gathered here in the Donetsk city of Kramatorsk to show unity and buttress each other amidst the uncertainty.
	To the south, people in the Azov Sea town of Mariupol sang their national anthem draped in Ukrainian flags.
	Thanks.
	Most Ukrainians are expressing confidence in their army, which analysts say is much better trained and equipped than in 2014 when Russian-backed separatists started the war.
	It's interesting the amount of church hymns and songs in these reports.
	Thank you.
	We've had two or three, this show alone.
	I thought you mentioned it.
	I wonder what that is.
	I mean, does that just show their peace-loving?
	No, but there's a reason they bring those things into the report.
	I don't know if they're that advanced.
	Oops!
	Hold on a second.
	Breaking news, John.
	Breaking news.
	Now, just like there's never a war on Wednesday, the United States, it's been said, has never ever attacked a country that has McDonald's in it.
	We've heard this before, correct?
	Yeah.
	McDonald's has just closed operations of all of their restaurants in Ukraine.
	Uh-oh.
	Uh-huh.
	And Chernobyl has fallen.
	I'm getting live reports.
	This is beautiful.
	Chernobyl has fallen.
	That's a good one.
	Chernobyl has fallen!
	Okay, so I have two clips from Putin's speech, each about two minutes in length.
	And I think they're worth listening to because, if anything, his speeches have not been really discussed.
	You know, they pick out little bits and say, oh, he's talking about this, he's talking about that.
	But I found even the translation was decent.
	I double-checked it, made sure it was pretty much on the mark.
	And he starts off his...
	This was like an...
	I think, what did he do?
	Like an hour, an hour and a half of...
	The guy is...
	When he gets up there, he goes.
	He just goes.
	He goes forever.
	But it's interesting to listen to him as he gives us a historical perspective of Ukraine, which is his.
	But have a listen.
	Once again, I would like to underscore that Ukraine is not just a neighboring country to us.
	It is an inherent part of our own history, culture, spiritual space.
	They are our comrades, relatives, not only colleagues, friends, but also our family, people we have blood and family ties with.
	from the south-west Since ancient times, people from ancient, southwestern Russian lands were calling themselves Russians and Orthodox.
	That was happening until 17th century when part of these territories rejoined the Russian Empire, the Russian state, and after that, it seems that we know all about this, that we are talking about Facts that everyone knows, but at the same time, we need to have understanding what is happening today to explain motives and aims that Russia has.
	We need to say a couple of words about the history of this matter.
	I would like to start by saying that the modern Ukraine was completely created by Russia.
	To be more exact, by Bolshevist, Bolshevik-Communist Russia.
	This process has started almost immediately after the 1917 revolution.
	And Lenin and his supporters did it In a rough way, if we talk about Russia, they were alienating parts of historical territories of Russia.
	And millions of people who lived there, obviously, no one asked anything.
	Then before the Great Patriotic War in Africa, Stalin added to the USSR and handed over to Ukraine some lands that belonged to Poland and Hungary.
	And as a compensation, Stalin gave some ancient German lands to Poland.
	And in the 1960s, Khrushchev decided to take Crimea away from Russia and also gave it to Ukraine.
	That's how the territory of the Soviet Ukraine was formed.
	Sounds historically pretty correct to me.
	Yeah, he leaves a few things out, like the starvation policy of Stalin toward that area, the Donbass, where they killed something like six, it was a Holocaust, six plus million Ukrainians starved to death.
	He did mention that in the whole speech.
	What did he say about it?
	Specifically, that Stalin starved the people to death.
	Oh, well, that's pretty much the summary.
	Yeah, so I think he kind of got that.
	It's just so interesting that, I mean, the stuff he's saying is, you know, it's like, okay, you know, this...
	Let me put it this way.
	I'm really tired when I see news models, and I'll put Tucker Carlson as a very cute news model, saying, Americans can't find Ukraine on a map!
	Alright, I'd like to counter that narrative.
	Google.com!
	Ukraine!
	Map!
	Come on.
	People are not that stupid anymore.
	They make Americans...
	Our very own American news media makes us sound like we're dummies.
	Like we can't...
	It's such a trope.
	Can't find Ukraine on a map.
	Our country, you can't find on a map.
	Yeah, I can.
	I just go to Google and type in Ukraine and it shows me a map, you dunce.
	It's just...
	And we're learning very, very quickly.
	Now, the second clip of Putin...
	Yeah, it pisses me off.
	You know, it pisses me off.
	Well, you know, there are some...
	I have to say, I defend your position.
	Thank you.
	But I have to say, there are some people that just don't seem...
	Because they ask me a question, and I just do a Google search and send them to search.
	And they always go, yeah, I guess I could have done that.
	Let me Google that for you.
	Does that still exist, that website?
	Remember that?
	Yeah, well, it might as well exist.
	It does.
	Let me Google that for you, and you can send a link.
	Yeah.
	Well, you can do that anywhere.
	Yeah, but it sends you an insulting page that says, oh, I Google it for you, dick, basically.
	Oh, yeah, that's a bit much.
	No, not at all.
	It's great.
	Alright, so now some...
	And by the way, I didn't know that Khrushchev gave Crimea to Ukraine.
	Yes, yes.
	Yes, he did.
	We talked about it before.
	It's been discussed on the show.
	Well, I certainly forgot.
	In the 60s.
	All of this is pretty recent history.
	I mean, you and I both were in Russia pre-David Hasselhoff bringing down the wall.
	This is true.
	I lived in...
	In Europe during some of this, I mean, even the Chernobyl accident, just all these things, it's been going on, it's pretty recent history.
	And now Putin talks about what the real problem is.
	And the way I understand it, you heard in an earlier report from one of those shills, that basically Western Ukraine is where all the Nazis were and possibly still are.
	In fact, John McCain had his arms around a couple of neo-Nazis.
	And so it's always been a strife between the Nazis in the West and the Russians in the East or people who consider themselves Russian or whatever.
	I mean, this is the problem with these borders and fuzzy understanding and people showing maps from different eras.
	But he's very clear about what happened in Ukraine and why he's upset.
	The whole idea of the so-called pro-Western civilizational choice of the Ukrainian democratic power was and is still not in creating better conditions for the good of the people, but to serve the geopolitical adversaries of Russia to save billions of dollars they stole from the Ukrainians and hidden by oligarchs.
	Some financial groups who paid politicians first, they based on radicals and nationalists.
	Others, they were saying for good, friendly relations with Russia, for cultural and language versatility.
	And they were coming to power using the votes of the people who really wanted to see it happen, including the people from the southwest.
	But after they were assuming office or forgetting high positions, they were betraying their people who elected them, their voters.
	And they followed their radical ideas in their policies.
	Sometimes they were even...
	Punishing people who wanted to cooperate with Russia, who wanted to keep both languages viable.
	And those people who supported them, of moderate views, who are used to trust the power, unlike radicals, they would never be aggressive to use unlawful means.
	But radicals were becoming more and more brazen.
	Their claims were becoming bigger and bigger, so they had no problem to influence the weak power that was weakened by the virus of corruption.
	And they were replacing cultural, economic, social interests of the people, actual sovereignty of Ukraine by speculations on nationalist ground.
	The stable statehood hasn't been built in Ukraine.
	And political, electoral procedures serve just as a screen to divide power and assets between oligarch plans.
	Corruption that is a problem to a lot of countries, including Russia, and Ukraine has become a thing of its own.
	He doesn't really do a good job or loses something in translation.
	Well, what he's saying is the oligarchs, you think Russia is filled with oligarchs.
	No, the oligarchs in Ukraine stole the money, stole everything.
	It's in Western banks.
	They hooked up their corrupt partners who got them into office.
	He's talking about Hunter Biden, among other things.
	They all got paid handsomely, and it's been a complete shit show in Ukraine, and I think that's true.
	I don't have a translated version, but Ukrainian parliament member Ilya Kiwa is calling on Russia and the Russian army to liberate Ukraine from Western occupation.
	Ukraine is drenched in Nazism and we need help.
	He is sure that Ukrainians, Belarusians and Russians are one people, one family.
	There will come a day where they will all be together again.
	But purely from the capture of Western banks and interest, that's true.
	Shit, every country is...
	But Ukraine is weak, and we put in all these shills.
	He's making points that the Russian people, I think, would agree with.
	Well, there's an interesting little thing you hear on NPR and PBS and some of these other places where the Russian people are about to revolt because they hate Putin.
	And I'm seeing just the opposite.
	He's sensible.
	He goes out there and he talks common sense.
	They all agree with it.
	There's no counterargument because it's not allowed.
	And, but it's not that, you know, the Russians aren't cynical in their own way, and they could probably think otherwise, but they seem to agree with him.
	Yeah.
	You gotta wonder.
	I mean, this is so good for...
	But first of all, this is great for CNN. You've got to wonder if Malone, not Dr.
	Malone, but John Malone, if he wasn't in on this, thinking, you know, this could be another bonanza, this is how CNN came...
	This is the only time CNN does well.
	Right, but he kicked all the idiots out.
	I mean, Don Lemon's still there.
	They kicked them all out, believe me.
	They kicked out all...
	What?
	He hasn't kicked them all out.
	No.
	At least...
	Well, we'll see.
	Stelter's still there.
	There's a lot of...
	Oh, you've got to have some color.
	Those guys are going to be gone.
	You've got to have some color in the show.
	So if I... And I'm a believer in...
	He's going to trim the fat.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, there you go.
	I'm a believer in the Great Reset.
	Not that I want it to happen, but I believe that these...
	When money people, bankers, talk about this stuff and they go around yapping it and have symposia and they think it's all great and the cyber pandemic is coming, the Opticon, and you're not going to have anything and central bank digital currency and all these...
	I mean, hold on.
	In fact, let me play you a Great Reset clip.
	What country would you say is the closest to being under total Chinese-like control at this moment in time?
	China.
	And after China?
	Well, India's gone to digital currency.
	That's always a possibility.
	Who else would it?
	I don't know.
	How about Canada?
	Oh yeah, Canada.
	I think Canada kind of shows it.
	They're freezing people's money.
	They are persecuting them and prosecuting them for protesting.
	The prime minister is calling them horrible things.
	We're talking about the truckers and protesters.
	And then the Canadian Bankers Association comes out with a little promo clip.
	They are so excited.
	This is going to change everything.
	It's going to be great to be Scandinavian.
	Canada is on the cusp of a revolutionary innovation that will transform the way Canadians authenticate themselves online and protect their identity.
	Digital ID.
	All of us are living in a digital world, but we're tethered to an analog model of how we identify ourselves, memorizing countless online passwords, carrying government-issued licenses, plastic cards, and more.
	Digital ID is a way for Canadians to identify themselves to government, businesses, and each other electronically with ease and rock-solid security, without the need to present physical documents.
	One interconnected network.
	A federated digital ID ecosystem developed in collaboration with Canada's best and brightest talent from our banks, telecommunication companies, law enforcement, and government.
	It would have the power and security to store every Canadian's electronic identity and attributes.
	And it would unlock countless opportunities for Canadians to verify who they are safely, quickly, and securely, while only revealing the information necessary for each transaction.
	Oh, yes.
	easy and secure way to bank, sign up for government services, renew driver's licenses or health cards, shop, travel, and more.
	And more.
	Canada's banks are perfectly situated to help lead the creation of a federated digital ID system between government and the private sector.
	The World Economic Forum agrees that banks and financial institutions should lead the path forward for digital ID. Banks are highly regulated and trusted.
	They have advanced cybersecurity and privacy technology, and they have the infrastructure to operate provincially and nationally.
	Banks are also at the forefront of working with fintech startups who are bringing revolutionary mobile and online products and services to Canadians.
	Digital ID can help consumers navigate between these apps and programs with trust and confidence, knowing their ID is protected at all times.
	A federated digital ID approach can also significantly reduce fraud, save taxpayer money, improve regulatory compliance, and make it easier to do business as an owner and as a consumer.
	In fact, the Canadian Bankers Association just launched a white paper with our recommendations on how to move forward with the Federated Digital ID Framework.
	I encourage you to read it to learn more.
	The Fetty verse of money.
	So what is this idea?
	He talks about bitching and moaning about cars.
	He says cards early in that presentation is a bad thing because he had all these cards.
	Yeah, it's too many cards.
	I'll tell you what's wrong.
	You are the main progenitor of the cards going into the digital ID. How many times have you not complained about some old lady who doesn't know she can stick her credit card in the machine before the cashier is done ringing up all the items?
	We need these old people, these annoying old people who don't know what the hell's going on, we need to fix them with the digital ID. And of course, she'll be too slow for you, so yes, you're right, chip.
	Chip them.
	This is about being chipped.
	The Bank of England.
	Which means you can gouge a chip out of somebody.
	Oh, yes.
	Okay.
	All right.
	The Bank of England.
	Specifically Tom Mutton.
	This whole thing, by the way, is so stupid.
	Wait.
	It gets better.
	Tom Mutton, director of the Bank of England, during a conference last Monday said, programming could become a key feature of any future central bank digital currency in which money will be programmed to be released only when something happened.
	Woo-hoo!
	He said, you introduce programmability.
	What happens if one participates in a transaction that puts a restriction on the future use of money?
	There could be some socially beneficial outcomes from that, preventing activity which is seen to be socially harmful in some way.
	So they're not in sync yet with the digital ID, but they have the right idea.
	Programmable money.
	Money that the government gives you that expires or money that cannot be spent on...
	Well, the expiration money is not new.
	No, not at all.
	I went to South Africa back in the...
	I forgot when that was.
	And I was given some money.
	I was given a bunch of money to spend.
	It expired.
	The money expired.
	I heard Sir Gene talking, the show he does with Darren.
	And Gene is interesting.
	He says he's hoarding cash.
	He believes that cash will be important.
	And he said until, of course, they start putting RFID into the banknotes and then let them expire too.
	It's not just an online thing.
	I think this is really the plan.
	I mean, listen, this is the Canadian Banking Association, and they're talking about the World Economic Forum.
	World Economic Forum thinks it's a pretty good idea.
	Anybody who mentions that is suspect.
	Well, how about the Canadian bankers?
	They're suspect.
	They're very suspect.
	I did look into the claim that Klaus Schwab made that Putin was a young global leader.
	This is not even really technically possible.
	The qualification for a young global leader of the World Economic Forum, you have to be 38 or younger when admitted.
	This is supposed to be a long time ago that he was a member.
	Well, so that would mean that he was under 38.
	He was still in the KGB in the USSR in the 1990s.
	I don't think he's in the program.
	No, you're going to make me look it up.
	Well, Schwab is 81.
	It doesn't make sense.
	Well, Schwab is, let's face it, old farts full of shit.
	Yeah.
	Dangerous.
	Dangerously full of shit, yeah.
	I think that they're closing in.
	All the pieces we've come, you know, we're kind of accustomed to QR codes, at least the unwashed masses.
	You know who else looks like a Sith besides the head of that economic forum operation?
	Soros, for God's sake.
	Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah.
	But I don't think old man Soros is doing stuff anymore.
	This is all Alexander, his son, who's on the World Economic Forum board.
	So I think the baton has kind of been passed.
	Maybe, but you know, during this little skirmish we see with Russia and Ukraine, the Russian ruble's falling like a rock, and as soon as I see some major currency move, I think Soros has got his hands in it.
	That's his whole thing.
	He would make the bet.
	He would make the bet, for sure.
	For sure.
	Man, so exciting.
	Good time to be a podcaster.
	It's always a good time to be a podcaster when the news media is not doing its work.
	It's following orders from Ned Price, of all people.
	Picked up a cool clip from the UK Parliament where the ESG and environmental social governance continues to stop people's freedoms.
	Freedoms from sending dick pics.
	Mr.
	Speaker, four in ten young women in this country have received an unsolicited naked image of a man's genitals.
	This sort of abuse has absolutely no place in our society.
	Will my right honourable friend please make sure that this has made a sex offence in the online safety bill?
	Yes!
	Minister!
	I want to thank my right honourable friend for her consistent championing of this disgusting form of abuse against women and girls.
	I can do more than refer to my right honourable friend, the Prime Minister, who is sitting behind me and has himself committed to introducing cyber flashing as an offence as soon as possible.
	Yay!
	Cyber flashing!
	Let's get this straight.
	So some guy, some jokers, let's face reality.
	How about a 17-year-old boy?
	Or a 16 or 15.
	Just a kid, a boy who thinks, giggler.
	You know they're giggling when they do this.
	Let's send it to Jane.
	She's like really uptight.
	Let's send her this and see what happens.
	We can see her.
	She's over there, standing over in the corner by the school room.
	Send it now.
	Okay.
	She's on her phone.
	Okay.
	Oh, look at her face.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Exactly.
	Oh, so now that's...
	Stand still, citizen.
	Stand still.
	You're under arrest.
	You're sending unfilled.
	You're sending dick kicks.
	You're under arrest.
	You're under arrest.
	It'll be a drone from the sky.
	Yeah, that'd be best.
	Don't you think?
	Put down your phone.
	Yeah, let's see.
	It'll be like...
	Get down your phone.
	Pack up your penis.
	Get down your phone.
	Pack up your penis.
	Flies off into the distance to report you to authorities.
	If we can just stay with Generalist for a moment, we had a very disturbing report two shows ago about which we had a couple of doctors, or at least one doctor, use the unbecoming term for penis, which is dick, and talked about a syndrome called COVID dick, which is just rude.
	How's that coming?
	Well, first of all, I wanted to mention, so far I've not been able to try the...
	We're sick here, so there's no COVID going on, no COVID lovemaking.
	And it's probably better because there's a new term that's been introduced as a vaccine adverse event reaction.
	And it has a term that you will find disturbing.
	But again, these are doctors.
	It's like the issue of sexual contract between men and women.
	And now they've come out with a new syndrome called winter vagina.
	Because women are having...
	We'll come right back with Dr.
	Lee Merritt.
	Wow.
	I'm Kate Daly, your guest host.
	Dr.
	Merritt, we can't let winter vagina go.
	I mean...
	What in the hell?
	You really need to comment on this.
	Winter vagina.
	Again, they're making up diseases to explain what they're seeing as a consequence of these damaging vaccines.
	So a man takes a vaccine and his wife gets a vaginal outbreak, a virus or a rash or something that's painful, and now it's winter vagina.
	Another example.
	Yeah, there it is.
	Cold weather can cause winter vagina.
	Oh my gosh.
	It's unbelievable.
	There you go.
	Well, I wish I'd known in advance you were going to go in this sort of sick direction because one of the Olympians had frozen penis.
	Yeah, I know.
	It wasn't quite the same thing.
	No, but it was just...
	But, but this, this is...
	Fell off.
	You ready for it?
	You ready for this new term?
	I read you from Euro Weekly.
	French number one, Gal Monfil.
	He's the 25th best tennis player in the world, I think.
	Number one in France.
	Withdraws from Davis Cup, citing a health glitch following the COVID vaccine.
	Ooh.
	This is dynamite.
	Health glitch.
	I like it.
	I love it.
	Oh, yeah.
	That's a show title.
	Well, not just the show title.
	It shows that...
	Because a glitch is typically related to technology.
	Ooh.
	Yeah.
	So, and the guy says...
	Writing on Twitter, the 35-year-old said, Hello everyone, I want to give you some news following my recent withdrawals from tournaments.
	I suffered a small health glitch following my third dose of vaccine.
	On the advice of my doctor, I decided to take some rest, so unfortunately I will not be able to play the Davis Cup next week.
	Hope to be able to return in the United States.
	The world number 25, who has not played for over three weeks, opened up further about his announcement after receiving hateful comments calling him an anti-vaxxer despite receiving three doses of the mRNA vaccine.
	See how evil this shit is?
	Is it evil?
	There's a couple other things going on with your health.
	CDC is now sending out alerts that you may get a false positive if you've been vaccinated on a sexually transmitted disease test.
	Syphilis, rickets, but also tuberculosis.
	These are all things that can happen regularly.
	Because you accepted the vaccine into your life, don't be worried.
	You don't have syphilis.
	It's just the vaccine doing its work.
	U.S. life insurers, as expected, making a large number of COVID-19 death benefit payouts last year.
	They're seeing surprisingly high cases of death.
	It's just another number that will be disputed, but I don't know if you've noticed, but we picked it up right away with Dr.
	Scott Gottlieb.
	The CDC is being thrown, not just under the bus, under the train, under the cruise ship, under everything.
	They're going to be blamed.
	While everyone's focusing on Russia, the news comes out, well, the CDC, they didn't publish all of the information.
	They lied to us.
	They withheld stuff.
	No, we need a new organization.
	We need to get rid of this.
	It's all, and it's probably Trump's appointees.
	New York Times is even in on this.
	There was a German report that the German insurers have come up with.
	They've made the announcement that the vaccine damages that they've had to pay out their health system is like 10x or 1,000x more than the numbers indicate and they're irked about it.
	I don't have a clip.
	I do have some Omicron clips if you want to play them before we go to the break.
	We'll finish out COVID before we go to the break, so let's have them.
	Really?
	Yeah, I think so.
	Stretching it, but okay.
	Well, okay.
	Why don't you run the show?
	Tell me what you'd like to do.
	You'd like to take the break?
	Well, I would like to go to the break and then do COVID, but...
	Well, then let's not do any more COVID. Let's go to the break.
	The reason I say that is because we are about an hour and a half in.
	One hour and 22 minutes.
	An hour and 22 minutes.
	Yeah, we usually go to about 1.30.
	And I don't think we can get these COVID clips in because I got one in here that really needs a lot of discussion.
	Then let me thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you, the man who put the C in the COVID clips!
	After the break, ladies and gentlemen, Mr.
	John C. DeVorex!
	It also teases the break.
	In the morning of you, Mr. Adam McCurdy, you're on your ships and sea boots and the ground, feet in the air, subs and the water.
	Dames and knights out there.
	That's a good job.
	I like that it teases the break.
	This is very good when we do the pews on the air.
	It's fantastic.
	In the morning to the trolls in the troll room.
	Trollroom.io.
	Hello, trolls!
	I want to count you hands up.
	All right, let me see.
	How many do we have?
	How many trolls do we have?
	Do we see a count?
	Oh, one, two, three.
	They're scurrying away.
	Uh-oh.
	Get your post-it note.
	What?
	3046.
	What?
	Yes, sir.
	You know why?
	Because when shit goes down, people listen to a podcast.
	What's the number again?
	3046.
	Great job.
	Good to have everybody here.
	You can join the trolls.
	You can listen live Thursdays and Sundays.
	We have a 24-hour stream, which has tons of live shows on it, but also replays or podcasts.
	Almost 250 over the previous record.
	Well, we're at war, John.
	Yes.
	We did it, boys.
	We got the trolls up to over 3,000.
	Okay, we can quit now.
	By the way, I don't want to interrupt your train of thought because we've got to go look at the art and the rest, but I do have to mention the Zephyr today.
	Sure.
	Why don't you do it now?
	Thank you.
	So the Zephyr today, if you're on the Zephyr train anywhere going up to Sacramento and beyond, I don't know how long this is going to last, but I would get and check this out.
	Instead of having the two engines at the front of today's Zephyr, There were four engines, which Zephyr doesn't need four engines, not these guys.
	It had four engines.
	There were two of the regular Zephyr engines, and then there were two commemorative engines that were all dolled up.
	They were quite the thing to see, believe me.
	Really?
	Yeah, they were all painted fancy.
	It was like some sort of a...
	I don't know what the point of it was or what they're going to celebrate, but these two additional engines are going to be obviously dropped off someplace for some reason.
	Not sure.
	Where else, ladies and gentlemen, can you get a sexy Zephyr report like that?
	Oh my God!
	Woo!
	Listen to that horn!
	I'm going to hit you right back.
	Tina and I are saving up.
	Next year, if we can travel, if the world is still here with us.
	They have revamped the Orient Express.
	Yeah, I heard this.
	Oh my God!
	I'm on the mailing list for that, so I've seen what they're up to.
	It's like a Michelin dinners, and if we can afford it at that time, because it's crazy expensive, we're going to get the clothes, we're going to do the whole, like, I want a smoking jacket, I want a tuxedo, I'm going to dance in the dancing car.
	I'm becoming a foamer.
	Well, I was looking at that.
	My attraction to that, it's not really that long of a trip.
	No, it's two days, overnight.
	Yeah, a couple overnights.
	And you don't even stay in the train, you stay at different hotels.
	No, no, you sleep in the train.
	What are you talking about?
	I've looked at this thing and I think they take you off the train.
	John, I've seen the pictures of the rooms.
	Well, you're on the poor people's mailing list.
	These are first class hotels.
	My idea is to take the Vladivostok to Moscow, Trans-Siberian.
	Yes, as soon as possible, please.
	That to me looks like a great idea.
	Great idea.
	Go for it.
	Bring your podcast rig.
	Yeah, well, there's that.
	So you can join the trolls at trollroom.io.
	Please do.
	Or you can surf along with us with the true Fediverse, not that Canadian banking federated crap that we're talking about.
	The Fediverse is our Mastodon server, part of the massive Mastodon federated network of servers.
	There's no algos, but man, does it work well when you just want to chat with people and have a good time.
	It keeps everything in check.
	You can follow John C. Dvorak at noagendasocial.com and Adam at noagendasocial.com.
	And it's been good.
	It's such a high signal to noise and we appreciate Aaroner for running that for us, which takes actual effort and time.
	And we thank the Mastermind for the artwork for episode 1427.
	We titled that one Seat Warmer.
	And we actually looked quite a bit at the art, and once we looked at this one a little closer, we were quite happy with it.
	This is the puppet hand, which is Obama's face.
	Once you look at it, and the puppet's hand is jangling strings with Biden, Putin, Kamala Harris, Greta, M5M, and Vicky, Vicky Newland.
	And we thought it was pretty good.
	I mean, it was a nice piece.
	I thought it was...
	I couldn't believe that because Mastermind has not submitted a lot.
	No.
	Yeah, we actually had to check it and make sure...
	Yeah, we were waiting for Comic Trip Blogger to tell us it was stolen.
	Yeah, but that never happened.
	That didn't.
	No.
	It should have happened within five minutes of it being posted.
	You know that's how it works.
	And so that never came up.
	So, okay, good work.
	It's really a dynamite piece.
	It's a great piece.
	There's a lot of nice pieces, but there's a bunch of these The Queen is Dead pieces, and we're not playing that stuff under any circumstances.
	It's sick.
	We like the Tantanil.
	Tantanil had a...
	Oh, no, it was Nessworks who did the Tantanil.
	Nessworks had some nice pieces.
	A lot of them, actually.
	There were some good things in here.
	Trying to think.
	What else was there?
	Biden with the little green.
	Was it Biden?
	Yeah, with the little green men.
	I did that.
	There's your Biden.
	A lot of Queen stuff.
	Somebody sent me like a bucket.
	I got to get their letter out and thank them.
	They sent me so many of those I did that stickers.
	Like thousands of them.
	Yeah.
	I'll never get them all posted.
	I'm not the only one posting them.
	I see them all over the place on gas pumps.
	Did we also look at Nestworks as the new look of America?
	I think we looked at that too.
	It's on the second page.
	Canadian flag with Chinese.
	I don't know.
	All of those would have been acceptable, but when someone comes in with just such a killer piece...
	Well, I was liking the other puppet thing, which was done by, I thought it was good, which was also done by Ness Wurst, which is the M5M Party Puppet Master.
	Also, did you use that in the newsletter?
	I thought you were going to use that for the newsletter.
	No, I forgot.
	I used this when I used the newsletter.
	So there's three animals the puppet there is controlling, the donkey, the elephant, and the bull?
	Buffalo, I think.
	Buffalo.
	What's the Buffalo for?
	It's the independent, whatever it is.
	Oh.
	Libertarian?
	Is that it?
	Maybe.
	I don't know.
	The libertarians, do they have an animal?
	What is that?
	Stupid animals.
	Why wouldn't you have the eagle?
	Why wouldn't you use something cool?
	Donkey.
	I like elephants, but...
	I also like the Transporters vs.
	Deceptionicons by TreeStyle.
	He's got that giant Transformers truck.
	Yeah.
	I thought that was good.
	I was almost going to use that in a newsletter.
	I looked at TreeStyle's history of art.
	It's all he does is that one piece.
	It's a nice piece, though, I have to say.
	I don't know.
	There was just a lot of stuff.
	The artists are kicking ass.
	It's one of the three T's of the time, talent and treasure which we appreciate so much because this is a show that has no listeners, no audience.
	We have trolls and we have producers and sometimes trolls can be producers and the other way around.
	And we really appreciate the work that all the artists did, of course.
	We also appreciate the work of Dreb Scott, who puts those into the podcasting 2.0 cloud chapter, so you can see all of the artwork that we were talking about.
	Or you can go to noagendaartgenerator.com if you so wish.
	I also want to thank the clip custodian this morning because he went to bed and woke up really early to get a couple of the current We're at War Russia clips, which was good.
	I really appreciated that.
	And if you'd like to see any of the new features, and if you'd like to protect podcasting moving forward, because it truly is the last place where we can kind of speak our mind, and they want to lock it down, they want to shut it off, they're going to attack and remove people from the legacy apps that you're using.
	Apple's done it.
	Spotify will do it.
	Google will do it.
	Amazon will do it.
	Get a new podcast app, modern one, at newpodcastapps.com.
	And that definitely goes for this show.
	I want to make sure that you can always receive us.
	We received quite a bit of treasure today for the show.
	And I presume some of that is for the palindrome.
	People love numerology when it comes to producing the show.
	But also just some people coming in who are claiming knighthoods, etc.
	And we'll kick it off with Brett Fanelli from Claysburg, Pennsylvania.
	$1,428.57.
	Which he says is one of his favorite numbers.
	Yeah, he's got a long spiel about it.
	Yeah, I don't think I can do it justice, but I'll get a little bit into it.
	I've been meaning to donate with my other favorite number for a while, but alas, I was a douchebag.
	Eventually I'll make that donation too, but now that you're dropping pod 1428, I just knew I had to make this one now.
	And he asks for a de-douching in his opening, and did he have a couple jingles?
	Yeah, he had some interesting jingles.
	You've been de-douched.
	We continue with his note.
	Per the Book of Knowledge, 142857 is the best-known cyclic number in base 10.
	Can we dispute that?
	No.
	I don't think so.
	He's got documentation in that little note of his.
	If it's multiplied by 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, the answer will be a cyclic number of itself and will correspond to the repeating digits of 2-7, 3-7, 4-7, 5-7, 6-7, respectively, meaning the result will always be the same digits in the same order at a different starting point.
	And then he has a formula, and he's really excited about this formula.
	He's excited about this number.
	This is his number.
	This is the shit, man.
	He says, those aren't factorials.
	It's excitement!
	Notice what digits are not included in the results anywhere.
	3, 6, 9.
	Supposedly understanding the significance of 3, 6, and 9 is the key to the universe, according to Nikola Tesla, according to some facebag post or some shit.
	But anyway, love is lit.
	Amen.
	Fist bump.
	Brett Finnelli, Sir B3, Knight of the 88 Fingers.
	That will be his...
	His night name and he humbly requests extra bong hits and bourbon for everybody at the round table, along with a dose of your most potent relationship, karma, and the following jingles.
	And now he asks for a couple of things which are all karma jingles.
	I don't think he needs bong hits, to be honest about it.
	Anyway, go on.
	Why do you say that?
	I think he's high.
	Okay.
	So he says he wants to...
	Life is a scam.
	Life is a scam.
	Hold on.
	I didn't have that.
	Life is a scam.
	Hmm.
	I know we have that.
	I don't...
	A scam...
	I don't remember ever hearing life is a scam.
	I think it's something you said, but I don't know if we...
	I have something here that's scam related.
	It's a scam.
	Goat scream, R2-D2 scream, but these are all karma jingles, so...
	Okay.
	And then a stereo scream.
	So you're pushing it a little bit, but we're gonna...
	Because your numbers are so fun, we'll do it for you.
	Life is a scam.
	Oh...
	You've got...
	Karma.
	You've got...
	Karma.
	Thank you very much.
	Yeah, that actually was the most interesting note of the day.
	Ross Jennings comes in next with $1,000.
	I can find no note from him whatsoever under Ross or Jennings, and I'm sure he'll get back to us eventually, but $1,000 is highly appreciated.
	I think that's an instant night number, and I don't know.
	I'm going to have to dig around.
	Tom and Jake comes in next, and they're from Provincetown, Massachusetts.
	That's at 444.44.
	Greetings from the No Agenda Married Gays.
	Hey!
	The Married Gays.
	Yay.
	Provincetown.
	Provincetown.
	Donating 2x222.22 to celebrate 2-2222 being the two-year wedding anniversary for the two of us.
	And they never had a fight.
	Sorry.
	Also, 22222 is the second of a series of monthly original song releases Jake is doing.
	Hope to Know Agenda producer community checks out LA is a ghost town by Jake or Jacob available on all the music platforms.
	Just regular karma for the many more years of happy marriage.
	LA is a ghost town?
	LA is a ghost town.
	Okay.
	Karma, karma, karma.
	Do you want regular karma?
	You've got karma.
	Let me see.
	L.A. is a ghost town.
	I was wondering if it was a...
	There you go.
	No?
	Josh and Jake?
	I'm going to have to look for that.
	I've heard his music.
	I want to hear it.
	It'll be fun.
	Thank you, Married Gays.
	Mike Nikolai Chuck.
	We know him as SirRoleSK, Saskatoon, Canada, 536-07.
	And he writes, I have finally completed my slow climb to Barron.
	I hereby claim the Canadian pre-Confederation region of Rupert's Land.
	Map below.
	He did.
	He sent in a map.
	Yeah, he has a map.
	Rupert's Land.
	That's an interesting part.
	That's quite a bit of Scandinavia there.
	So yeah, I think that's good.
	I don't think anyone's claimed it.
	According to the peerage map, there's only one other knight claimant in this region who is now my vassal.
	I would be willing to meet Sir Robert Goschko, Viscount of Sherwood Park and Strathcona County on the field of battle.
	You're not supposed to battle your fellow knights, man.
	Or negotiate an appropriate tax rate in exchange for me allowing him to manage the lands currently under his rule.
	I would manage these lands wisely and assure any lords or knights pay an appropriate tax for their peerage.
	Please keep up the great work because we need you now more than ever.
	Cyril S.K., Baron of Rupert's Land, home of the free unless you protest, regards, he says.
	And, of course, he was also an executive producer of the No Agenda Show, episode 922, and will become a Baron today.
	We appreciate it.
	Thank you so much.
	Next on the list is Chad Belcher in Biloxi, Mississippi, 355.55.
	Again, no note from a Chad Belcher that is in my inbox anyway, so I'll move on to...
	But he can always send a note in later.
	I'll move on to Susan Brigham.
	Brigham.
	In Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, $350.
	And she writes, this donation is in honor of my smoking hot husband's 65th birthday on February 23rd.
	Happy birthday to Scott Brigham, from his wife Susan, as well as his kids Tyler and Courtney, and son-in-law Ryan, all of whom he has hit in the mouth over the past 10 years.
	This is my first time donating, so I'm requesting a de-douching as well.
	You've been de-douched.
	Thank you for the show and the enlightenment it spreads.
	You're welcome.
	Florence Jennings, our favorite executive producer of Mount 333.33, she's from Great Britain, however, writes from Singapore, Scotland, and France, trying to navigate the biotechnocracy with better news decoding in the morning.
	And that's it, and we appreciate that, Florence.
	It was very nice.
	I'm glad that we can help.
	Sir Babaluchi from Hawaii, Honolulu, 333.33.
	Brian Eubanks is his name.
	What does Sir Babaluchi write on a note that he sent in?
	Donation from Sir Babaluchi at the Nashville Skating Rink.
	Thank you to the organizers.
	It is wonderful to see so many people outside their comfort zone.
	Love is lit.
	Sir Babaluchi, wife and daughter from Honolulu, Hawaii.
	We move right on to Chris...
	Willis from Hendersonville, Tennessee.
	I would say this is probably another skating donation.
	Dear Crackpot and Buzzkill, hard to believe, but I've been with the show since the Bush administration.
	Wait, did we already read this one?
	Well, I don't think so.
	I think we did.
	It's hard to believe, but I've been with the show since the Bush administration.
	I had the pleasure of meeting Adam and redacted.
	Yes, we've done this one, John.
	I remember the redacted.
	It's possible, but how did you get it?
	Because this came in the package from Dame Jennifer, this note and the one you just read from Honolulu.
	I'm reading it on the scans that I was sent this morning from the back office.
	Yeah, and those came in yesterday.
	Mm-hmm.
	From an envelope, a care package from Dame Jennifer, this note and the one you just read from Honolulu.
	Ah, right, but she sent those in advance.
	She sent them on a spreadsheet, remember?
	And then we read them off?
	I don't know, because you would have gotten that.
	I didn't get that.
	All I got is what came in the envelope.
	They were on our regular spreadsheet.
	We read this one, but I'll do it again.
	I had the pleasure of meeting Adam and redacted at the Big Bang Bar during the Hot Pockets Tour as well as the indomitable Right Honorable Sir Jeff Smith.
	Thank you for helping me have a sane perspective at least part of the time during all these insane times.
	All producers should be grateful for the foresight and wisdom to keep things decentralized and sustainable lest we all be listening to Rachel Maddow and NPR instead.
	And he asked specifically for...
	Now I know.
	Now I know.
	He said dealer's choice, and this was my point.
	This is where we got...
	Yes.
	Well, I have dealer's choice now.
	Dealer's choice.
	Now you're talking.
	There you go.
	That's it.
	You got your dealer's choice.
	Congratulations and thank you.
	Kellner in Rippon, California, 333.
	Needs a de-douching.
	We got that in store for you.
	You've been de-douched.
	Since COVID, I've listened to all the past episodes.
	Jeez.
	Amazing to relive history.
	F. Joe, F. Trudeau, F. W. E. F. F. Hillary.
	Too many to call out!
	I would like to hear the John Boobs compilation.
	Who doesn't love boobs?
	Is there a John's Boobs compilation?
	Boobs, boobs, boobs, boobs.
	Gotta have boobs.
	I'm a First Amendment absolutist.
	That's the song?
	Ah, here it is.
	I got it.
	Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies. Boobies.
	Who doesn't love them?
	What is a COVID boob donation?
	Uh, just, I don't know.
	Okay.
	Sir Gene, Duke of Texas, your buddy, he's there in Austin, and he's the one who helps you out.
	333, he used to be the sheriff.
	Yep, he is the sheriff.
	No, he says just keep on trucking, everyone.
	Sir Gene, Duke of Texas from the Unrelenting podcast.
	Honk, honk, honk.
	Honk, honk.
	Jeff Holland is in Winter Springs, Florida, 304.30.
	This palindrome donation, plus a boobs donation, 304.30, should get me into knighthood on show date 22422.
	Hip hip hooray!
	Please knight me, sir.
	Now, he spells it G-H-O-T-I, but I believe you pronounce it fish.
	I've received a pronunciation guide.
	So, you'd want to say Sir Goatee, Fisher of the Space Coast, but I've been told you pronounce G-H-O-T-I as Fish, and I don't know why.
	I can't remember.
	You're on your own.
	And he wants to be called Sir Fish, Fisher of the Space Coast, so he can attend the Orlando meetup this Sunday, February 27th, and not go as a douchebag.
	And he would enjoy a helping of classic mutton and mead at the Knights Roundtable.
	Of course, we have that.
	Adam, will you please let us know where the full list of N.A. jingles resides?
	I could only find the N.A. ringtone clips webpage, so my references are based on those titles.
	Allow me to tell you, we do not publish our jingles because other shows take them, have fun with them, steal them, and never give us credit.
	And it's not just podcasts.
	It's radio shows, television shows, so screw them all.
	We don't do that.
	Phone Boy does have a pretty good collection.
	He says, I believe it is your voice on the You Stupid Fools clip that I requested in my last donation.
	It was something I said on the show.
	It's not really a clip.
	Given today's current events, I really hope you can play the following jingles.
	Cruise missile sound effect.
	Oh, hold on a second.
	Ay-yi-yi-yi-yi.
	Cruise missile sound effect.
	We have a cruise missile somewhere.
	Okay, I got the cruise missile.
	What else does he want, John?
	Can you read that off for me?
	Uh, you stupid fools.
	I don't have that one.
	What's the cruise missile?
	Something's a scam.
	Putin.
	He's got Putin.
	I think we have Putin.
	The cruise missile sound effect Putin.
	Putin!
	This is a scam and you stupid fools and top it off with a karma.
	Huh.
	I don't have stupid fools.
	I'll just say stupid fools.
	You stupid fools!
	You've got karma.
	Thanks for the entertainment, guys.

	It's too late.
	Yeah.

	The reason I had the pleasure of meeting Rich at all and also find the great content that is no agenda show.

	It's hard to say.
	Rest easy, Rich.

	Please add me to the fun and frivolity of today's birthday list.
	Love is lit.
	Mike Newman, Georgetown, Texas.
	P.S., although the Texas barbecue legend was that John Mueller has prematurely passed, the round table is a powerful place, so maybe those beef ribs will show up anyway.
	Had to ask.
	We got them for you.

	Fothery?
	He's in West Worth Village, Texas at 224-66.
	First donation, please de-douche me.
	You've been de-douched.
	I'd like to call out my brother Taylor as a douchebag.
	Douchebag!
	That said, I would like to thank him for hitting me in the mouth and thank you both for producing bi-weekly InfoSainment.
	I would like to dedicate this donation to our late father whose birthday would fall on February 24th.
	I would like to request a honk honk followed by a ooh for jingles and a job karma for both mine and my brother's small construction businesses.

	Well, how about that, Brian?
	So, if your dad is 33, how old are you?
	Curious?
	This is very nice that you're doing that for your dad.
	It's cool.
	He's a long-time producer of the show, including art for episode 662, and hits people in the mouth every chance he gets, and clearly raised a fine young human resource.
	I only started listening after Adam's first appearance on JRE, though I haven't missed an episode since.
	We don't see each other often enough living in different states, but listening to No Agenda has definitely brought us closer together.
	Adam and John, thank you.
	May you never find an exit strategy.
	Jingles, a biscuit on my birthday, a new, we got a mac and cheese jingle, and an ooh.
	These are getting hard to parse.

	Lily Patch comes in with $224.22.
	And these are all palindromes, I should note.
	Yes, correct.
	In the morning, gents, after listening to Sunday's show regarding the World Economic Forum penetrating our highest offices, I felt beholden to write to the show and ask for support from my dear friend Amy Reichert.
	Of Reopen San Diego, who is running to replace Nathan Fletcher as supervisor.
	She found herself in a unique position after the county decided it needed redistricting.
	This remapping now places her in Nathan Fletcher's District 4.
	Nathan is part of the WEF. And has been a key player in stripping away San Diegans' rights these last two years with masking children mandates, tweeting disparaging comments during board of supervisor meetings to shutting down BOS meetings to the public entirely.
	Sorry, I just had to throw it in.
	Of all the board supervisors, he's the slimiest of them all.
	We need to collectively remove all Klaus Schwab indoctrinated politicians out of positions of power.
	I can't argue about that.
	Amy is doing her part and didn't hesitate the minute she found out she was able to run against him.
	She courageously entered...
	I'm starting to sound like a newsreel.
	I like it.
	I like it.
	She courageously entered the ring if you were not able to vote him out.
	Then please consider helping this movement to remove Fletcher from office with your donation to AmyForSanDiego.com AmyForSanDiego.com Amy is a true leader and has done so much for those who thought they did not have a voice during the course of the pandemic.
	But every bit helps, even if you're not in District 4.
	Let's join Amy in restoring life, liberty, and love to San Diego!
	Oh, and a jobs karma.
	Everything helps.
	Thank you, Little Patch.
	Lily Patch.
	Man, you started to sound like Ron Burgundy there for a moment.
	Say, all right, San Diego!
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs!
	As an aside, Will Ferrell will be keynoting the next podcast movement or something, whatever the conference is called.
	Because, you know, he does a very successful podcast, the Ron Burgundy podcast.
	He does?
	Mm-hmm.
	Well, they say it's successful.
	Who knows?
	Huh.
	Yeah, they make these mistakes.
	Like, why would you do that?
	Well, I know why you do it, because people want to go see him.
	Yeah, and the last time, like, oh, we've got Mark Cuban.
	He's going to change podcasting forever.
	With his, what was it, firehouse, fire brand, fire, fire, set your hair on fire.
	Remember he had some...
	He had a podcast?
	No, he had like a...
	No, he did the keynote at the last podcast conference because he was launching Fireballs.
	They launched it, but it was basically a clubhouse with podcast feeds.
	Oh, please.
	Fireside.
	And he stole the name from Fireside.fm.
	And, of course, the whole thing went to shit.
	People are not podcasters.
	Exactly.
	He's a basketball team owner and an entrepreneurial type.
	He's not a podcaster.
	He's never done broadcasting.
	Yeah, okay, he's on a broadcast.
	Shark Tank, but Will Ferrell is not a podcaster.
	He doesn't need to be a podcaster.
	What's the point?
	Yeah, well, that's typical.
	Anonymous 224.20 says, I need to remain anonymous.
	You got it.
	Birthday donation.
	Any group that would have me is not a group I would be a knight for.
	Thank you for promoting critical thinking.
	Here's my treasure.
	I'm not sure I understand.
	That's kind of a reworking of the Groucho Marx comment.
	Any club that would have me as a member...
	I wouldn't join any club that would have me as a member.
	Okay.
	Well, we're pretty degenerate over here, but okay.
	If you think you're better.
	I think I know what he means.
	Yeah.
	Tom Blowers is next.
	And he's in Brownsville.
	We had a lot of Texans today.
	Yeah.
	He's in the famous town of Brownsville.
	Where's Brownsville from you?
	Can you get there?
	Can you get there by walking?
	Dude, I can't even find Ukraine on the map, okay?
	So I don't know.
	2222.
	In the morning, I'm sending a row of waterfowl as I begin my own journey to the roundtable.

	Yeah, he threw down the challenge.
	Andy Collins is in Santa Fe, Texas, once again, with a row of ducks slash geese, 222.22, for his birthday, which was on 22222.
	First donation.
	Listener, since Adam's first Rogan appearance, keep up the good work.
	Can I get a little goat karma?
	Well, you may be a first-time donor, but you know what you want.
	You've got...
	Very nice.
	Thank you.
	Now we have Charles Hoffman in Des Moines, Iowa with 222.22 in No Note.
	Then we have Stephen Gann in Parts Unknown, 222.22.
	And he says, Trudeau is asshole.
	Thank you for your courage.
	Now see, that's the kind of succinct note that we really like.
	That's a note.
	That's a note right there.
	I'm sorry.
	Go ahead.
	I have to cough.
	Dame Dane is in Bingingen, and that's in Switzerland.
	Bingingen.
	Rove Ducks, my favorite show, 222.22.
	You keep me informed and healthy.
	Thank you.
	Can I please have some health karma for my dad, who has lost himself and some jobs?
	Who has lost himself?
	And some jobs karma for my beautiful man, the mainframe guy.
	Oh, love and light.
	Dang, dang.
	Well, of course, we'll combine that for you.
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs!
	And here's the kind of note I just feel good about.
	Marcus Müller in Montalbauer, Deutschland, 222.22, and he simply says, can't pass up this date slash number to donate to the best podcast in the world.
	Universe.
	Isn't that great?
	Oh, in the universe, sorry.
	That's the way I like to see it.
	You know, you put a number out there and everyone loves it.
	No, he's Deutsch.
	He gets it.
	He follows your orders.
	There's no orders.
	Hey, Brian.
	There are no orders.
	We got 222.22 from Brian and Susie Morris from Maine.
	Good friends.
	I've stayed at their place up there in Liberty, Maine is where they live.
	I met them on the Hot Pockets tour.
	Said we had a receipt.
	At L.L. Bean's flagship store today, we were number 33 and it was 2-2-2-2.
	Time to donate!
	Thank you for the reminder, universe.
	You guys are the best.
	Keep it up.
	No jingles, no karma.
	But we have been listening since the beginning and I realize we are way past $1,000 in donations.
	So please give the damehood to Susie.
	Dub her Susie Dame Head Gardener.
	And we shall certainly do that.
	And thank you.
	Good to hear from you guys.
	Glad all is well.
	In Liberty.
	Liberty, Maine.
	James Van Winsberg in Lovetsville, Virginia, 222.22, used the opportunity in paper to write this note.
	I replied to the newsletter.
	Hope it works!
	I didn't get anything and I definitely didn't have anything with the subject line donation, which I will remind people that has to be in there.
	Some guy wrote a couple of long notes and I just caught him by accident.
	They were not giving me the clue I need.
	I need a subject line that I can search before we file this spreadsheet.
	Peter Karnowski, 222.22, and he says, this donation is in honor of Rebecca, my truly amazing, beautiful, devoted wife.
	I send you all my love, Peter.
	No jingles, no karma.
	Well, that makes it easy, doesn't it?
	Yeah.
	Next up, we have Tyler Brown from Manchester, New Hampshire.
	222.22 wants Don't Trust China.
	He wants the full asshole.
	Okay, because we have short and we have full asshole.
	Full.
	Okay, we got the asshole.
	I'd like to call out Ryan M. of the Lower Hudson Valley, New York as a douchebag.
	Douchebag!
	This donation is in honor of my smoking hot wife, Sarah, mother to our three human resources, the youngest of which turns two on Tuesday, two, two, two, two, two.
	And we'll have our 10-year wedding anniversary later this year, and we're growing closer each year.
	Her smile and nurse humor light up every room she is in, as well as some other attributes, wink, wink.
	What could he possibly mean?
	We recently moved from New York State to the great state of New Hampshire due to both of us losing our jobs for not accepting the jab into our lives.
	I had worked in the solar industry for over a decade and she was a labor and delivery nurse.
	Now our family can live free and thrive in the granite state.
	We made the move in large part because of the Free State Project.
	You should check it out.
	They're doing very important work here to ensure that New Hampshire will remain free.
	We couldn't be happier.
	We found a real community of people who value freedom and liberty.
	From the bottom of our hearts, I want to thank the No Agenda Show.
	Thank you.
	And I would like to attend a meetup.
	Live free or die.
	Yeah, I'd love to live free and thrive.
	I've heard about the Free State Project.
	Isn't that an actual area, the Free State Project, or is it just all of New Hampshire?
	I have no idea.
	I don't know.
	My beat is keeping track of what's up at Jefferson.
	Jefferson?
	Yeah, Jefferson.
	The state that is part of Southern Oregon and Northern California.
	Oh, okay.
	Well, that's a good beat to have.
	All right, here's your jingles.
	Donald Trump don't trust China.
	China is asshole.
	That's true.
	Whoa, you got butt slammed!
	Ho, ho, ho, ho!
	Seamus Fleming in Ukiah, California.
	He's in the state of Jefferson.
	There you go.
	He chooses to be.
	Our buddy Brunetti's in the state of Jefferson.
	The lower part.
	222...
	Take my geese.
	I have been on a strict regimen of amygdala-shrinking therapy since last April, and I have failed to donate once.
	My friend Shane hit me in the mouth all those months ago, and yet he, too, has failed to donate.
	Please remove my douche and insert it firmly into my good friend so that he may remember our shared shame until he is...
	Cleansed of his sins.
	And we'll place the douche over here.
	There you go.
	It's been moved.
	Thanks for all the great deconstruction and authentic entertainment you two serve up twice a week.
	I know of no other show that offers shrewd analysis of the media.
	And the Elite Agenda.
	While making me crack up laughing, No Agenda really is a comedy podcast.
	Don't tell anybody.
	Don't tell anybody.
	I request a haunting solo from John's musical Rock.
	I think he's referring to...
	The recorder, I think.
	No, no.
	He's talking about the little rock I have that I talked about on the show.
	Do you have it there?
	Yeah, I have it.
	Goat Karma for all the beautiful souls out there.
	Love is lit.
	Yours truly, Seamus Fleming.
	You give him the Goat Karma and I'll play the rock.
	You've got...
	Karma.
	This is Little Rock.
	Little Rock.
	John's going to be performing.
	John's going to be performing.
	I don't know how anyone plays this thing.
	That rock sounds pretty good, actually.
	Is that the rock that just has a hole in it?
	No, it is a...
	This is actually made out of clay.
	We've talked about this rock.
	And then it has...
	It looks like a small rock.
	And it's got like five holes in it.
	And he's been tuned.
	I don't know how this guy ever...
	He said this a couple years ago.
	I don't know how he makes it work.
	The best part is it's been tuned.
	Yeah, we could tell.
	It was so tightly tuned.
	Well, it's been tuned.
	Stan Salisbury is in Gainesville, Florida.
	Sends us a row of ducks.
	His Tuesday donation.
	Thank you very much.
	Steve still also came in with a 222.222.22.
	And he says, would you mind?
	I guess he's taking his music off of Spotify.
	Who?
	Stephen Stills?
	It's not Stills, it's Stills.
	Oh, I see.
	It's not the same guy.
	And it's Steve with a V, not a PH. Who you would say, hey, nice to meet you, Stephan.
	I just imagine you meeting Stephen Stills and go, hey, Stephan, how you doing?
	Hi, fellas.
	He says, would you mind reading this on air and posting in the show notes?
	We don't really post your notes in the show notes.
	No.
	Oh, I see what he wants.
	Hi, fellas.
	Hi, fellas.
	Hi, guys.
	Smash that like button.
	Subscribe.
	I've been listening since Adam's first appearance on Twit.
	But this is my first donation.
	Can I please get a de-douche?
	You've been de-douched.
	I am one of the Illinois Shillanoisians and wanted to share with you my website, stillgoldens.com.
	S-T-I-L-G-O-L-D-E, stillgoldens.com.
	My wife, Faith, and I raise miniature golden doodles.
	Our hope is that we can leverage our love of dogs to help lift ourselves out of wage slavery.
	Our two adorable and available puppies are named Chewy and Little Bear.
	Here's a tip.
	Never get a puppy named Chewy.
	You know that's some bad news coming into your house.
	Little bear?
	I don't know.
	Could I get some puppy-selling karma for our website?
	Stillgoldens.com.
	Yes, of course.
	No agenda listeners can mention ITM for a $333.33 discount.
	I mean, they're practically giving these dogs away.
	Jingles.
	Dogs are people, too.
	Little girl, yay.
	Thank you, gentlemen.
	Stay safe.
	Steve Stills in Southern Illinois.
	Dogs are people, too.
	Yay!
	Cool, man.
	Stillgoldens.com.
	I bet they're adorable.
	And we finished with William Torres for $200 and no note, which is the way to go.
	He can send a note in later if he wants.
	I want to thank all these folks for making show 1428, I believe is the number.
	Yes.
	Possible and viable.
	Good work.
	We had a make good from Allison Kendall who donated $100 last week.
	Totally didn't know where to shout out my awesome husband.
	So we need to read this because she just didn't know what to do yet.
	We should read our FAQ and look at the donation page.
	It is his birthday tomorrow.
	I want to de-douche him for all his years of listening and not donating.
	Ha ha!
	You've been de-douche.
	All kidding aside, he has been an avid listener of the No Agenda show for years and shares your awesome podcast with everybody.
	Love you, Sean.
	Happy birthday and many more.
	You're the best hubby.
	Funkle and dog dad and PA I know.
	Funkle?
	What's a Funkle?
	Fun uncle.
	Oh, a Funkle.
	Thanks so much, John and Adam.
	You bet.
	Very cool.
	Thank you very much.
	And thank you to all of these executive and associate executive producers.
	Wow, that really helps.
	The palindromes.
	It's so lovely to see how important numerology is in this value for value model.
	And I think it adds extra value for people sending it, especially when it's like the episode number is your favorite number ever.
	And this is how it works.
	This is why value for value has a future, has kept us going for now our 15th year since the Bush administration.
	Since the Carter administration, we're doing value for value, and we're just hanging in there.
	It's a great time to be a podcaster, and you help us.
	You make it happen.
	You're the producers.
	That's why you get these credits.
	They're official.
	They're valid.
	You can use them anywhere credits are recognized, including your LinkedIn profile.
	IMDB, go check it out.
	There's a lot of Hollywood types who are cool, who post their no agenda executive or associate executive producer credits there.
	If you'd like to know more, go to our website.
	It explains everything.
	And thank you once again for bringing your time, talent, and treasure to episode 1428.
	Our formula is this.
	We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
	Order!
	Order!
	Shut up, play!
	Who's that?
	Shut up.
	All right.
	Hey.
	Oh, a little update.
	A little update.
	Just a little update.
	There's a pretty good video I put in the show notes that explains why this happened.
	Not specifically about this, but man, when you see what happens with those sea containers, they get jostled around quite a bit.
	Particularly the ones on top.
	Have you seen some of those new ships?
	That's crazy how big they are.
	Well, the number of cars that supposedly were in this thing is astonishing to me.
	Because I, in the olden days, when the cars used to come over, and they still do, over into one of the docks in Richmond, and they drop them off from Toyota and Honda, I believe.
	I think they would carry, you know, like 500, 600 cars.
	These things are thousands.
	It's incredible.
	I just love that they all burn because of electric vehicle runway battery thermal fire or whatever.
	Not confirmed.
	Obviously.
	Doesn't matter.
	I like it.
	We'll take it.
	I'm going to hit the truckers before we get into some COVID because we'll kind of work backwards from it.
	Um...
	This is, interestingly enough, we discussed this three shows ago.
	The title of our show was Honk Honk.
	We immediately got a note from Sir Brian of London who said, Oh, you're in trouble now!
	Of course, there was no trouble whatsoever, but now we learn exactly what Brian of London said was true from a recording here of the Scandinavian Parliament.
	How many guns need to be seized?
	How much vitriol do we have to see of honk honk, which is an acronym for Hail Hitler?
	Honk honk honk honk!
	Oh, jeez!
	I told you!
	I told you!
	Alright, now we have a problem, and I think I want to talk about this for a moment, and then we can talk about the solution.
	This trucker protest looks like it's being replicated.
	Well, here's two clips.
	ABC. This morning, the Washington, D.C. area bracing for a convergence of big rig truckers.
	The so-called people's convoy arriving to protest government COVID restrictions.
	Are you planning to park when you get to P.K.? I haven't made that decision yet.
	Trucker Bob Ballas leading a group from Pennsylvania.
	He says thousands more truckers will be coming by next week.
	Some from as far as California, planning to be in place before and after President Biden's State of the Union address on Tuesday.
	This is peaceful.
	We're not looking for trouble.
	So let them not create trouble.
	Okay?
	Because no matter what it is, there's other convoys coming from all over the country.
	I call this the first wave.
	We're going to surf on in there.
	It follows a similar protest in Canada that jammed the bridge crossing into Michigan, holding up trade and threatening the U.S. economy.
	Many of the D.C.-bound truckers say they want their freedom back, pointing out that COVID cases and hospitalizations are dropping nationwide.
	What we're looking for is to end the emergency declaration, to end the mandates on the vaccine and the mask mandates.
	In response, the Pentagon has approved about 700 National Guard troops to help with traffic control and security in and around D.C., and fencing may be reinstalled around the Capitol.
	I'm pretty sure they are indeed reinstalling the fencing around the Capitol.
	No, the fences have been shown that they're there.
	Yeah, there.
	Another quick clip.
	Hundreds of National Guard troops will be deployed around Washington, D.C., as security officials brace for trucker protests in the coming days.
	At least three truck convoys inspired by recent protests against COVID restrictions in Canada are set to arrive in the D.C. area as early as this week.
	Some protest organizers are promising to cause gridlock in the D.C. suburbs.
	The Pentagon has now approved 700 National Guard members to help control traffic and carry out other duties.
	We're told they will not be armed.
	Okay. um This is a very bad idea.
	It's a very bad idea to have a convoy going to D.C., certainly during a political speech.
	The chance that you get rousted into some kind of follow-on January 6th scenario, I would say, is quite high.
	What do you think, Dr.
	Dvorak?
	Well, there's a couple of things.
	One, I don't know what the point of it is.
	If they really felt the way they do about the Canadian stuff, they could drive up to Canada and go up there.
	I think it's pointless, to be honest about it.
	We don't have the kind of mandates.
	It's state by state.
	Some states have a lot, some have none.
	How about Florida?
	I don't get it.
	There's something else going on.
	I don't know what it is.
	But I do think it's interesting that they got the National Guard called out.
	When Trump asked for the National Guard before January 6th, they wouldn't do it.
	Right.
	Well, they learned their lesson because now the terrorists are coming again, the domestic violent extremists.
	I'm not even sure there's really a trucker organization that wants to do this.
	This sounds like a setup to me.
	The whole thing is sketchy.
	I have a better idea.
	And this would work for global.
	This is a global idea, okay?
	Now, we're not allowed to call for general strikes in the United States, and I would never do that.
	That's illegal.
	In fact, if I said that on the podcast, we need a general strike, could I get in trouble?
	Somebody wanted to get you in trouble for sure.
	Okay, so I'm not going to do this.
	However, I have the following proposal.
	Why don't we, truckers, I'll just be a trucker for a moment, why don't we admit, you know what?
	You were wrong.
	We were wrong.
	You were right.
	We didn't follow the science.
	We want to atone for our mistake.
	And we will do that next week by doing something we have never done.
	We want to follow the science.
	We're going to do Worship Science Week next.
	And since you were right on this COVID stuff, you're definitely going to be right on climate change.
	So in order to worship science all next week, we are going to save the globe by not driving our trucks at all.
	And we'd like to start Worshipping Science Week with New York and Washington, D.C. So while you have no food for the next week, please know that you are following the science.
	What do you think?
	I don't know if you'd make a good agitator.
	This is love, man.
	I love the earth.
	I want to follow the science and I want everybody to do that with us.
	Because, man, celebrating science and worshipping science in New York City without trucks coming in, you'll really atone.
	Kind of like the Jews do.
	You don't eat or drink for a couple of days.
	It'll be great.
	I will take that into consideration, and I don't think you will be arrested, but that's not calling for a general strike.
	No, that's why I'm not calling for a strike.
	I'm calling for Worship Science Week.
	Yeah, okay.
	Well, I think if you keep doing that every year, you'll probably end up having it work out.
	It takes a while.
	Oh, no.
	Don't do that.
	Oh, no.
	Don't do that.
	You'll get in trouble.
	So, let's look at COVID for a minute, because I've got a little point to make here.
	By the way, I want to play these clips, which is that the whole situation is falling apart.
	Yes.
	And being blamed on the CDC. Yeah, well, they can blame it on anyone they want, but it's beside the point, because the CDC is not the only one.
	But let's listen to these three clips.
	Besides the embalmer clots clip.
	This is a good clip, I bet.
	Well, let's play the embalmer clots and then play the other falling apart clip.
	I'm glad you got a clip because I've seen the story, but I never found a clip.
	I'm Steve Kirsch with the Vaccine Safety Research Foundation.
	Oh, who is this Steve Kirsch?
	I want to be his friend.
	I'm Steve Kirsch with the Vaccine Safety Research Foundation.
	I'm here with Richard Hirschman.
	Richard is a...
	Funeral director and embalmer has been doing this for 20 years.
	He works out of Alabama.
	He was featured on a video with Dr.
	Jane Ruby where he was talking about unusual blood clotting that he's observed since May or June of this year.
	And it's gotten progressively worse so that now this month it's over 60%.
	of the people that he embalms has these unusual clots that he'd never seen before in over 20 years of doing this and also other embalmers have not seen it before either and they're seeing it also for the first time this year and they're basically seeing the same weird stuff That you're seeing.
	So my first question is, Richard, because I'm assuming that people have viewed that Jane Ruby video of you where you describe the clots and have pictures of the clots and so forth, so we won't get into that.
	But let's talk about your peers.
	When you start to ask your peers to say, hey, have you seen this?
	Like, when did they notice this was going on or did they start to notice it after you tipped them off?
	They seem to notice it after I tip them off.
	Some of these peers, these people that I really highly respect been doing this for about as long as I live, don't do as much embalming now as they used to.
	I brought them these pictures after I had gathered several of them.
	Because I wanted to make sure, you know, this is not just me seeing this.
	This is like, okay, now I'm not crazy.
	I've not seen this stuff in the last 20 years and now I have all this stuff.
	Hey, you've got many more years of experience than I do.
	Have you ever seen it?
	Because I didn't want to come out with these pictures and be, you know, oh yeah, well, you know, he's just crazy.
	He's always been around.
	But no, they're just as concerned about these clots as I am.
	Oh no.
	So the guy shows a bunch of, you know, he's got these long clots that are coming through when they're doing the embalming process.
	Gooey, gooey, gooey strings.
	Yeah, yeah.
	It's kind of gross.
	But anyway, so that's like a thing that no one wants to talk about too much.
	Well, you know what's going to happen?
	Cremation will become mandatory.
	Well, he said that right now, he says he can't see if there's blood clots in the younger, the millennials, because they all get cremated.
	But I don't know if they're going to be able to do mandatory cremation because there's too many religions that won't allow it.
	So that's not happening.
	But this, whatever the case is, he had talked to the news.
	Nobody will talk to him in the mainstream.
	But what he doesn't say or even allude to is if it's from COVID or from the vaccinations.
	Could be either one.
	No, these are unvaccinated people.
	He does allude to it.
	Oh, these are unvaccinated people?
	Yeah.
	Really?
	No, no, no.
	I'm sorry.
	Oh.
	They're all vaxxed.
	Oh, okay.
	All right.
	Very few unvaxxed have these.
	None of them that I saw or he saw.
	It has these weird clots that are long and they're clogging up everything.
	The question is, are the clots appearing after the people die or were the clots already in there when they died?
	Well, they have to, I would, I think the Klotz killed them.
	How about that for an idea?
	Like that comedian that fell on stage, I put it in the No Agenda social feed.
	Heather McDonald.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, that was great.
	Now I think Bob Saget probably had the same thing because he was bragging about all these shots.
	No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
	Heather McDonald, she played it off by saying, well, I did just get my booster, but I hadn't eaten.
	I'm like, okay.
	Okay.
	She cracked her skull.
	Yeah, I know.
	It's an improvement.
	Well, she wasn't funny, that's for sure.
	Let's listen to this couple of the...
	I got a new vaccines clip.
	It's 31 seconds.
	These late to the party people, I don't understand what the point is.
	Let's play that.
	Which one?
	What am I looking for?
	COVID new vaccines is on to COVID. A couple of major drug makers say they intend to seek regulatory approval for a new COVID-19 vaccine.
	Drug companies Sanofi and GlaxoSmithKline say they'll move ahead with the process after the company's two-dose COVID vaccine showed a high level of protection against the disease.
	Late-stage trials show the vaccine about 58% effective in preventing infection and 75% effective in preventing moderate to severe disease.
	Drugmakers say they'll seek regulatory approval from both the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the European Medicines Agency.
	I think you get the same results from eating garlic.
	Yeah.
	And now we have the COVID narrative starting to go all over the place.
	This is an interesting clip.
	New COVID-19 infections are down more than 60% over the last few weeks.
	Deaths and hospitalization rates are dropping too.
	And if all this feels a bit familiar, well, here was CDC Director Rochelle Walensky last spring.
	If you are fully vaccinated, you can start doing the things that you had stopped doing because of the pandemic.
	In May of 2021, Walensky announced that fully vaccinated people no longer had to mask up.
	We have all longed for this moment when we can get back to some sense of normalcy.
	At the time, that guidance surprised a lot of people.
	Like Lena Wen, a professor of public health at George Washington University.
	The CDC seems to have gone from one extreme of over-caution to another of basically throwing caution out the window.
	That was Wen last year, but she told NPR that this moment is different.
	Now, the vaccination rate overall is much higher.
	Children five and older have been able to be vaccinated since November.
	She also said that while Omicron is highly contagious, it proved to be generally milder and has already swept through the country.
	And I think as importantly, there is a recognition that we cannot be in a perpetual state of emergency.
	The CDC has already hinted that future guidance will be more measured.
	Here's Rochelle Walensky again at a White House COVID briefing last week.
	We want to give people a break from things like mask wearing when these metrics are better and then have the ability to reach for them again should things worsen.
	Oh, pfft.
	All right, so as things fall apart with the narrative, this is the funniest of the clips.
	This is the COVID four, five, six shots clip.
	So how long does immunity last after people get vaccinated?
	If you got a booster shot more than a few months ago, should you think about a fourth shot?
	NPR's Aisha Roscoe spoke with global health correspondent Michaelene Duclef about that.
	So I understand that several countries are already starting to roll out fourth doses, including Sweden and Chile.
	Do people here in the U.S. need a fourth dose?
	Fourth dose?
	Yeah, so right now the data suggests that for the general population...
	Oh my God.
	This is bad radio programming.
	What is this?
	Is this NPR? What is this?
	Yep.
	This is bad programming.
	You do not toss to a reporter who has the same annoying voice as the one who's tossing.
	Oh, you've got to listen to some of these complete productions.
	They have two of...
	This is like...
	I'm noticing this with podcasting.
	And it began with Sophia with an F and her friend Alexander...
	Alex, the original Alex, not the one she's with now.
	You couldn't tell one from the other.
	And I'm noticing this on a lot of podcasts and sportscasts, and it's like you can't, I can't recognize, this is like casting, you know, people don't understand, well, that doesn't look like your sister.
	Well, sometimes you need to have a blonde, a redhead, a brunette, someone with their hair up and someone with their hair down.
	Yes.
	So you can remember the characters.
	Yes.
	If everybody looks exactly the same with the same hair color and same hairstyle, you can't figure out what the hell's going on.
	And this is the same thing with audio, even more so.
	That's why when two people work together a lot, you start sounding like each other.
	That's not going to happen with us since I don't have your mellifluous tones.
	Oh, yes, you do.
	But the point is, is that yes, yes, I know.
	What's interesting is that the Podcast Academy, one of these groups who, you know, if they wanted me, I would never join, kind of deals...
	They can always say, we need more women in podcasting.
	More women.
	Women are taking over podcasting.
	What are you talking about?
	They're everywhere.
	And it's fine.
	But these voices.
	So how long does immunity last after people get vaccinated?
	If you got a booster shot more than a few months ago, should you think about a fourth shot?
	NPR's Aisha Roscoe spoke with global health correspondent Michaelene Duclef about that.
	So I understand that several countries are already starting to roll out fourth doses, including Sweden and Chile.
	Do people here in the U.S. need a fourth dose?
	Yeah, so right now the data...
	I'm sorry.
	She says fourth dose.
	Come on.
	She can't even speak.
	Do people here in the U.S. need a fourth dose?
	Fourth dose?
	Yeah, so right now the data suggests that for the general population, people don't need a fourth dose, and here's why.
	Last week, a study came out of Israel looking specifically at what a fourth dose does.
	How much does it help?
	It's a preliminary study, and it's pretty small.
	It included only about 700 people.
	But it found that quite clearly that a fourth shot of either Pfizer or Moderna doesn't add much protection against infection beyond the third dose.
	Specifically, it increased protection by only about 10 to 30 percent, and that protection will likely wane over time.
	So, 10 to 30 percent increase.
	Why would the fourth shot not boost protection like the third shot did?
	Why isn't it the more the better?
	Yeah, I was talking to Jenna Guthmiller about this.
	She's an immunologist at the University of Chicago.
	She says, you know, this vaccine really isn't designed to stop Omicron, stop Omicron infections.
	It's designed to stop the original variants of the virus that circulated two years ago and are very different than Omicron.
	We know that this virus is way more...
	Likely to cause an infection just because it's more infectious, right?
	Right!
	What used to work for something like, you know, the Alpha variant and even to a certain degree with the Delta variant is perhaps not the same thing that's going to be necessary for Omicron.
	In other words, no matter how many shots you throw at it, four, five, six, it's just not going to stop infections.
	This is, first of all, it's completely scripted.
	Completely.
	Of course.
	Completely scripted.
	And I just want to remind everybody, I actually have this clip now on my phone, just in case.
	I won't play the whole thing, but just the beginning of it, where Bill Gates talks about this Omicron variant.
	In beating COVID-19.
	Well, you know, sadly, the virus itself, particularly the variant called Omicron, is a type of vaccine.
	That is, it creates both B-cell and T-cell immunity.
	I just noticed something new.
	It's not just Omicron.
	He says, this variant and others.
	Acts like a vaccine.
	Well, yeah, if you get any of the disease, you'll get it.
	It's like a vaccine.
	I know, he's making the case for natural immunity.
	Duh, yeah.
	It's this guy.
	This guy.
	Oh, did you...
	Oh, yeah, sorry.
	Now I want to get to a point, which has nothing to do with this falling apart.
	It's something else.
	And it starts with...
	I don't know if this really triggered it, but I have these two clips, Omicron BA.2, and I got two versions of it.
	And it has to do with the naming nomenclature.
	We were told that, oh, this is the Greek alphabet.
	We're going through the Greek alphabet.
	So we had Omicron.
	We skipped Z. Omicron should be followed by pi or rho.
	Mm-hmm.
	But then if you remember when they said, why did we go from Delta to Omicron?
	They said, well, it's because before Omicron is G or Z, I think it's XI, which you can't use because it's racist and insults China.
	But I'm looking at the Greek alphabet.
	There's Alpha, which, by the way, it was never Alpha until after Delta.
	It was never called Alpha.
	No.
	But now they call it alpha.
	But if you look at the Greek alphabet, you've got alpha, beta, gamma, then delta.
	What happened to beta and gamma?
	But between delta and Omicron, you have epsilon, zeta, eta, theta, iota, kappa, lambda, mu, mu, z.
	You can't use those names.
	Omicron.
	They're all fraternity names.
	There's something else going on, I think.
	But let's listen to this little spiel about Omicron.
	Instead of being...
	It would be after Omicron, it should be pi or rho or sigma or tau or epsilon or chi or phi.
	There's a bunch of them.
	Psi and they're not all...
	There's not omegas at the end.
	Um...
	Let's listen to this little bullcrap about this variant first.
	Scientists are watching a version of Omicron called BA.2.
	It has spread quickly in South Africa, Denmark, and other countries, although it's not clear if that'll be the case in the U.S. Here's Nathan Grubaugh with the Yale School of Public Health.
	A lot of us were assuming that it was going to quickly take off in the United States just like it was doing in Europe and become the new dominant variant.
	But that hasn't happened yet.
	Instead, Jeremy Lubin at the University of Massachusetts says cases of BA.2 have been steadily popping up.
	There are places where it's dominated pretty quickly, like Denmark.
	In the U.S., it's just kind of creeping up slowly.
	We asked NPR health correspondent Rob Stein to explain what people should be watching for.
	The CDC says BA.2 has now been found from coast to coast.
	Holy crap, what is this voice?
	What is this voice?
	What is this?
	Don't ask.
	Here's our health correspondent Rob Stein to explain what people should be watching for.
	The CDC says BA.2 has now been found from coast to coast and accounts for almost 4% of all new infections nationally.
	And Samuel Scarpino at the Rockefeller Foundation says BA.2 appears to be doubling every seven days.
	Mm-hmm.
	And so if it doubles again to 8%, that means that we're, you know, into the exponential growth phase and we may be staring at another wave of COVID-19 coming in the U.S. And that's, of course, the one that we're really worried about and kind of why we're all on the edge of our seats.
	Oh, John, are you on the edge of your seat?
	Not really.
	But, a couple of things.
	I mean, we can play the second part of this if you want.
	Then I have to go to my kicker.
	Can I say one thing about the correspondence in this clip?
	I think Daniel Lubin should hook up with Jeffrey Toobin.
	They'd make a great pair.
	Lubin and Toobin.
	Lubin and Toobin.
	They can both go on camera and do their thing.
	Do their thing.
	I'm not going to play the second part of this.
	It's just more of the same.
	All right.
	But I want to play something else because it was this trigger, this B, A, dot, two, instead of, let's see, let me look on this list again.
	Pi, rho, sigma, dou, epsilon.
	There's all these Greek alphas.
	But we were told that Omicron was picked because it was in the next, you know, all this.
	You remember.
	I remember.
	Delta.
	Delta.
	Omicron.
	The only two.
	They really actually pulled out of a hat.
	They pulled Delta and Omicron out of a hat of Greek letters.
	There's no rhyme or reason to it, no matter what they explained, right?
	Well, hopefully you have a deconstruction.
	You can tell us what it's about.
	Well, I'm wondering what it's about after hearing this 20-year-old clip.
	Now remember, there was never an elephant.
	It's always been Delta and Omicron.
	Delta and Omicron.
	So I found a 20-year-old clip of Art Bell in 2002 discussing flying saucers with our buddy Bob Lazar, who nobody knows if he's for real or not.
	But I got this clip.
	Listen to this clip and tell me if anything sticks out.
	I'm sure you've seen a million pictures and moving video now of UFOs and all the rest of it.
	You think the Belgian sightings were perhaps accurate with what you know about the drive systems.
	Have you seen any other film or stills of UFOs that That look like the real McCoy to you.
	Absolutely.
	Because once I started looking into it, now I don't research this stuff anymore, and I get a lot of people asking me UFO questions, and actually, believe it or not, it doesn't interest me.
	I liked being involved in the project, but I don't, you know, look into UFO stories or research this stuff.
	But when I did, when I said the craft operated in two modes, the Omicron and Delta configurations, when it's transitioning from Omicron to Delta, The way the craft flies through in space is belly first, not flying horizontal like you see in a science fiction movie.
	And as the craft leaves the ground in Omicron mode, they perform a roll maneuver where the craft raises and, you know, eventually you see it at a 45-degree angle and then it becomes straight up and down 180 degrees.
	The amplifiers come up to power, they focus on a point, and the craft flies belly first at the target.
	And you see a lot of UFO photographs here and there with crafts ascending in the sky at a 45-degree angle but flying up or sitting at odd angles in the sky.
	And at least from what I can guess from the photographs, if they in fact are genuine, it looks like the craft are transitioning from one mode to another.
	And so you've seen quite a few of those.
	I've probably seen three or four of those.
	Three or four?
	Yeah.
	So the majority of UFO photos are by you pretty much dismissed, but every now and then one hits you and you say, hey, hey, hey, look at that.
	Yeah, if it has something that clicks somewhere, but...
	You know, these days, boy, you just take a picture into Adobe Photoshop and, you know, you can make anything.
	I do know.
	Bob, I can't thank you enough for coming on tonight.
	With regard to your movie, Blue Book Show, hey, do you have any idea what the title might be?
	First, theremin.
	And after the theremin, the trolls are even calling for it.
	Clip of the day.
	Dude.
	So this is an alien space virus?
	I don't know what this means.
	To me, it was like code, because why was the spaceship anti-gravity mechanism having the two modes of Delta and Omicron?
	Why those two names?
	And it's interesting, because at a certain point, they actually had a 24-hour news cycle talking about a new variant as Omicron and Delta had converged, and it was called Deltacron, which we even joked about.
	Yes, they had the Omicron Delta.
	That was short-lived.
	Yeah.
	Yes.
	They still won't go to another Greek alphabet letter.
	As much as I... They keep on this Omicron Delta, Omicron Delta.
	What is going on?
	And then I play this 20-year-old clip where you have the same thing with a flying saucer mechanism.
	It's called the same thing.
	Yeah.
	What you would say to me is, okay, that's really cute.
	It is cute.
	I agree.
	But listen to this.
	Now, we have some consensus on the original transistor technology being given by aliens to...
	What was that one guy who created the transistor and never heard from again?
	No, you heard from all these guys again.
	Shockley was the guy.
	What happened with Shockley is that he never invented anything again.
	He took his operation...
	Fair enough.
	Fair enough.
	He was partly responsible for the valley.
	Fair enough.
	So what if...
	There was someone, maybe a scientist, who got the Delta Omicron space alien virus and decided, instead of to do better for the world, to clean up.
	And the reason I bring this up in context of your clips here is there's a substack called TrueCovid, and they now have what has been put together pretty well, succinctly.
	I've been hearing about this, and it's now, I think, beyond a theory.
	They have found, which others have found, but now they've published everything.
	There is a United States Patent Office patent from 2017 that patents a genetic sequence, which is a 100% reverse match with a genetic sequence found in SARS-CoV-2.
	Which really can only mean that that sequence was put into this virus.
	Now, of course, if you'd like to know who owns the patent on that sequence, what would you guess?
	It's easy.
	Fauci?
	Moderna.
	Oh, right, Moderna.
	Yeah, Fauci's involved.
	Yeah, I've heard this too, but how about this if you want to go another step?
	Okay.
	Because it doesn't make sense that we'd be giving a weapon that we're creating to China.
	It just doesn't make any sense.
	It's dumb.
	How about this if we're going to go in this direction with the theremin?
	You started it.
	It's a clip.
	It's a clip.
	Yeah.
	This was an alien virus.
	It wasn't necessarily what's floating around or Omicron.
	And they were looking for a way to stop it.
	And that's why this research was going on for looking for a real vaccine.
	And that's what Moderna and all these attempts to find a vaccine for this thing.
	That's where the code comes in.
	And so they were working on some way of preventing it.
	And China knew about this.
	And we knew about it, but China knew about it, and since they were working on it, they're the ones who freaked out the most when the thing escaped the stupid lab.
	Yeah, they're like, oh, we better lock people, bolt them in their homes.
	Because they see it as an alien thing that could kill all mankind, and it turns out that it couldn't quite.
	And then Omicron was released out of the blue, which we all know this.
	Omicron is on a separate timeline.
	It's the antidote.
	That to me is the alien antidote.
	That's what they were developing.
	The alien antidote.
	But it's just, I find this whole thing, because of those two words, and the fact that they were giving a bullshit story about, oh yeah, we can't use G, we have to use Omicron, but that doesn't follow, because the first one was Delta, Alpha was never used, and Delta, and then we jump from Delta to Omicron.
	This was code!
	Is it possible that, since we're doing this, that maybe the aliens took pity on us and said, Ah, shit.
	These idiots.
	Look what they did with the Delta and the Omicron.
	Hey, let's get the Omicron thing jacked up.
	We've got to fix these people down there.
	Yeah, I don't think...
	It doesn't seem likely.
	But, of course, none of this does.
	None of it seems very likely, yeah.
	I have a couple of, so mandates are coming down.
	It's all politically based, of course, because we have, in America, we have midterms, and I can only speak about the United States, our poor brothers and sisters in Canada, and everyone related to the crown of England, the dead queen, including Australia and New Zealand, you're all still screwed.
	We've got to work on that.
	But in New York City, change is a-coming, and that's good because 23rd of April, my dad is finally going to be laid to rest in Armonk, New York.
	The whole family's coming in.
	Of course, Adam's a problem because Adam can't stay anywhere.
	You can't stay anywhere in New York if you don't have your vaccine pass, your Excelsior Elite Pass.
	But the new mayor, Adams, is talking a big game.
	Let's listen carefully, though.
	Boston, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C. are all in the process or already have phased out the vaccine passports for entering indoor spaces.
	Does New York have a plan to do that?
	Do you have metrics to do that?
	Will it be phased out at some point, too, like those other cities?
	Yes, and I can't wait to get it done.
	I think that I take my hat off to New Yorkers through masks, through vaccines, through social distancing.
	We were hit with the uncertainty, the fear of COVID. Interesting, I just heard this now.
	The uncertainty and fear.
	What he, I think, wanted to say was the fear, uncertainty, and doubt.
	He takes two of those and reverses them.
	The uncertainty, the fear of COVID. I'm really proud of how we responded as New Yorkers.
	And every morning I meet with my health professionals because I always say that I'm going to follow the science.
	I'm not going to get ahead of the science because I'm ready to get ahead of all of this.
	This is what's interesting.
	He says, I don't want to get ahead of the science, but I'm going to get ahead of all of it.
	As I always stated, I'm going to follow the science.
	I'm not going to get ahead of the science because I'm ready to get ahead of all of this and get back to a level of normalcy.
	But they're giving us clean structures.
	They gave us benchmarks.
	We're going to follow those benchmarks.
	But I look forward to the next few weeks going to a real transformation that I don't have to wonder what you look like.
	I would know what you look like again.
	So he's really only talking about masks in this case.
	And it sounds like he's really wishy-washy about it.
	Like, oh yeah.
	Okay.
	He has to take action because the amount of money that goes into New York City if the Brooklyn Nets...
	Exactly.
	Exactly.
	They've got to drop all the...
	For the playoffs.
	Kylie has to play.
	Has to play.
	Yep.
	Yep.
	And so they're going to drop all this stuff for that reason, because we're talking millions and millions of dollars that are going to the economy, which he needs, and it's going to make him look good.
	He's got to find a way around it.
	So by the time that you have to go to the funeral, this will be done.
	I sure hope so.
	It will be, because they have to do it.
	They've got to get this, because right now the Nets are falling behind.
	They're having nothing but trouble.
	They got no Kyrie, right?
	Well, a lot of it has to do with Kyrie, which is weird, because I don't know how he plays here in San Francisco.
	I thought they had the same restrictions at Chase Center, but I don't know.
	That changed somewhere along the line.
	I was never told.
	Well, they didn't want to be racist.
	No, they were already racist.
	They already told Andrew Wiggins that he couldn't play unless he got vaxxed and all of a sudden he's playing and I don't know that he got vaxxed.
	So something's fishy about that.
	But just beside the point, they got to get Kyrie to play at home because those home games are important.
	They pack them in and people come in from all over the place and they spend a lot of money.
	It's not trivial.
	Unless they get wiped out in the first round, then the whole thing's a joke, but they can't take a chance.
	And they have to have Kyrie.
	New South Wales, Australia is taking a different tact instead of...
	They're actually just trying to, gee, I don't know, blame it on the medical system.
	In the last week or so is having a look, and we've had an expert clinical panel review how we capture COVID admissions to hospital.
	What we realised here in New South Wales is that we had a very conservative approach to that capture, and we were back capturing people coming into hospital who, and I think I touched on this a couple of weeks ago, so incidental COVID. Capturing all the way back 28 days prior to admission.
	And what that meant was that in our numbers, we were getting a skewing of our data.
	So, for example, if you were 22 years of age, you had COVID three weeks ago, you recovered from that, fell off your bicycle, broke your arm and came to hospital, we would count you as a COVID admission.
	After the review by our expert clinical panel, we've now reduced that back capture to 14 days to provide a more realistic picture of what we're seeing in our hospitals and our numbers reflect that.
	But on any scenario, whether it's 28 days, 14 days...
	Or whatever the number you use, the trend is the same, and in all cases, those numbers are following the same path down.
	I will also note that in New South Wales, that back capture exists, that does not exist in other states, where you would only be counted if you were COVID positive at the time of your admission.
	Okay, I'm sorry, but I think these podcasters knew that your counting was bullcrap two years ago, and now like, oh, we've made a discovery!
	You would mark this COVID even if you get COVID and recover.
	This has been discussed from day one on this show.
	That's why I said two years ago.
	Yeah, no, but I'm saying it's been discussed from day one on this show and others have noticed it and it just continued and we've traced it back to not some cautionary rationale, but we traced it back to the payments the insurance companies would pay out if somebody had COVID. It was all a money grab.
	Absolutely.
	That is not news.
	This last clip that I have, I had seen this whole session.
	This is from the Munich Security Conference.
	I even saw this piece, but I never saw the follow-up.
	So this is a panel of ladies and Bill Gates.
	A panel of ladies.
	It's a panel of ladies, and they're talking about masks and mask mandates.
	And Dr.
	Bill tries to be all cute about it, you know, and saying, oh, well, gee, oh, horrible.
	They make me wear a mask.
	I have to wear pants, toes, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
	So he's quetching with the ladies, and he tries to be coy and make this joke, and he gets butt slammed!
	What about masks?
	I think there are a lot of people in America who are confused about whether they should be wearing a mask.
	And in the United Kingdom, for example, they've scrapped that altogether.
	Well, that's interesting.
	You know, what is the downside of wearing a mask?
	I mean, it's got to be tough.
	You know, you have to wear pants.
	I mean, this is tough stuff.
	These societies are so cruel.
	Why do they make you wear pants?
	I'm trying to figure it out.
	We're very glad you have yours on.
	That will be on the web.
	That for sure will be on the web.
	Whoa!
	You got butt slammed!
	Yeah!
	I love it because everyone knows he's a creep!
	We're glad you got your pants on, you creep!
	You creepy philanderer, you creep!
	That was the subtext.
	You're absolutely correct.
	And it came out of her mouth and everyone's like, oh, and Bill Gates is like, I... It came out of her mouth smooth as silk.
	I love that.
	Because he's a creep.
	And everybody knows he's a creep.
	creep.
	He's a sexual deviant creep. Allegedly.
	Allegedly.
	Unbelievable.
	That made me really happy.
	It really did.
	It's very cute.
	It made me very, very happy.
	Let's see.
	Before we take another break.
	Oh, yeah.
	Another thing we've been tracking.
	You know we have to retire in a couple of years because everything that we've been talking about is now coming true.
	And it's so hard to...
	I mean, we're not going to sit and go say, we told you so.
	But also, it doesn't motivate.
	Like, I can't deconstruct this any further than we did 10 years ago.
	It's the same stuff.
	We knew it would happen.
	Yeah, it's getting repetitive.
	Yeah, so one of them is the bug thing.
	We've been tracking bugs.
	We've been tracking that the elites want us to eat bugs.
	You know, this is your protein of the future, bugs.
	You've got to eat bugs.
	And we've been laughing about this for well over 10 years.
	And it's worse than it seems.
	It's not just bugs.
	No, no, no.
	This is an article from Science.
	Insect ranchers pour $5 million into world's first large-scale genetic breeding facility.
	Genetically engineered mealworms could provide fertilizer and food for millions.
	And then it hit me.
	They want to turn us into bugs.
	Just like them.
	No!
	Reptiles love bugs!
	Oh, to eat.
	It's a snack!
	They want a snack on us!
	We eat bugs.
	You eat bugs.
	Mmm!
	Nothing like freshly caught bugs.
	You want to try?
	Ooh, thanks.
	I love bugs.
	Yeah!
	I mean, how bad is it we go from, okay, it's one thing to eat bugs, but now you want to genetically engineer them?
	Not modify, engineer the bugs?
	What is that going to do?
	Who needs mRNA when you can eat a DNA-devised worm?
	Worms aren't bugs.
	It's just like, holy crap.
	Does anyone else see this?
	You do.
	Rightfully so!
	I'm gonna show my support by donating to no agenda.
	Imagine all the people who could do that.
	Oh, yeah, that'd be fab.
	Well, there are a few people to thank for show.
	What is it?
	1428?
	1428, starting with the Phoenix Meetup.
	The Phoenix Meetup came up with $133 and they sent it in.
	Great time was had by all.
	Ducian Palmato in Oviedo, Florida, 101.
	Ian Field, 100.
	David Arneson, 100.
	Right down to...
	Do we have a short side of this?
	Sir Kevin McLaughlin.
	He's not missed a beat.
	Duke of Luna and Lover of America and Lover of Boobs.
	With a boob donation of 8008.
	Michael Rogan, 8008, and Tim Woodall, 8008, and he's at the Bowling Air Force Base.
	He had a note.
	Let's see if there's anything interesting in his notes, since he wrote a handwritten note.
	No, I don't think that's on the...
	Oh, it is.
	We do have a handwritten note from him.
	Yeah, there it is.
	Love the show.
	Thanks for what you do.
	Isn't that the handwritten note?
	Stupidly thought COVID was over and volunteered for a 100-day T.O. something to Ramstein Air Force Base in August 2020 after Adam's appearance and Joe Rogan.
	I haven't missed an episode.
	Anywho, Air Force talk.
	I barely made it home from Germany in January 21.
	Those fuckheads love them some lockdowns.
	Oh yeah.
	The Germans.

	Justin Newsome?
	He needs a de-douching.
	Kevin Newsome.
	You've been de-douched.

	Yeah, I can't think of it either.
	Okay, this is long COVID. I have hit many in the mouth but never donate.
	I want to call out Dario Douchebag and Scott as Douchebag.
	Okay.
	There you go.
	In fact, he even does his own podcast, the Good Times Culture Podcast.

	Gavin.

	Also, William Dolcini, he is founding producer Sir Richard of Kawarthas, and he wishes to acknowledge the separation karma worked and come celebrate with him at the Cottage Country Meetup in Peterborough, Ontario on March 18th.
	So we're happy when people stay together.
	We're happy when they leave for the right reasons.
	It's all good.
	It's all good.
	Thank you to these producers.
	And again, thanks to our execs and our associate execs that we thanked earlier on.
	And to everybody who came in under $50 for anonymity.
	A lot of people like doing that.
	Just keep out of the picture.
	Also, we have many of our subscriptions, which are great.
	We'd love for you to at least sign up for one of those.
	You can even make up your own, but they really do help sustain us as a base layer donation.

	Give everybody a goat karma who needs it.

	No douchebags here in In fact, only an upgrade for Sir Roll SK, who now is Sir Roll SK, Baron of Rupert's Land.
	Went through that extensively, and if you're in that protectorate, you may have to pay him some tax.
	But of course, this is all really good for when SHTF... That's when you want to be able to locate everybody in your protectorate.
	And thank you again for supporting the show, SirRollSK, now Baron of Rupert's Land, in the amount of an additional $1,000.
	We really appreciate that.
	A couple of dames and knights to bring up on the stage today.
	We have Blade for that.
	It's actually a bigger group than we've had in a while.
	All-purpose right here.
	All-purpose Blade.
	Nice.
	All right.
	We need Susie Morris, Brett Finnelli, Jeff Holland, and Mike Newman.
	All of you have succeeded in achieving the quest.
	Unlocking it!
	Become a knight and a dame at the Norwich on the round table.
	I'm very proud to pronounce the KB as...
	Dame Head Gardener, Sir B3, Knight of the 88 Fingers, Sir Fish, Fisher of the Space Coast, and Sir Mike of Georgetown, Texas.
	For y'all, we have hookers and blow, rent boys and chardonnay.
	We got extra bong hits and bourbon, 512 pecan porter, John Mueller, meats, beef ribs, and Texas peach cobbler with blue bell vanilla.
	We got some redhead and ryes.
	We got some organic macaroni and plasticized.
	We got some geisha and sake, bong hits and bourbon, of course, ginger ale and gerbils.
	Breast milk and pavlement, yes.
	The mutton and meat is here.
	And welcome!
	It's good to have a full table once again.
	I haven't had that many knights and dames in one go.
	What you have to do now is go to noagendanation.com slash rings, and that's where you will enter all your details so our back office can send everything off to you.
	That includes your beautiful signet ring, which you can use with the wax that accompanies it, so you can seal your official correspondence, typically when someone's sending stuff to the show, which you appreciate, and the official certification.
	By the way, I went to the P.O. Box earlier this week and I got the organic gummies.
	Let me tell you a little story.
	Remember this was, who sent those to us, John?
	The organic gummy woman.
	The organic gummy woman.
	So, you know, I had driven from Fred into Austin.
	I had to go to Costco, which was a nightmare.
	It was really busy.
	And I go to the P.O. Box and now I'm peckish.
	And I still have to go to my hair person.
	And I'm peckish.
	And I see the package from the gummies.
	I'm like, oh, cool.
	I could use an organic gummy right now.
	Which is made of elderflower, I think.
	And some other cool natural ingredients.
	And so I pop this thing open.
	And there's two bags.
	Have you tried them?
	Did you try the gummies?
	Yeah, I already ate them all.
	Oh, so I pop the bag.
	I'm like, mmm.
	I throw one in my mouth.
	And then I look at the bag.
	Yeah, they'd been there for a while.
	There was mold all over them.
	I ate a moldy gummy.
	I didn't feel bad, though.
	It tasted really good.
	But it was definitely fuzzy.
	And I'm sad.
	Don't send perishables to the P.O. box.
	You just can't do it.
	Not to his.
	Mine is fine, because I get an alert.
	I got an alert day in advance.
	I picked up the gummies the next day.
	The cold pack was still in there.
	It was still cold.
	See, I can get a...
	Put them right in the refrigerator.
	I can get a P.O. box out here, but I'm so worried that some of this P.O. box...
	Switching P.O. boxes is a hassle.
	It's a nightmare.
	I've done it once.
	And I'm not sure I want to do it again.
	But it might get me fresher gummies, so there's that.
	Not necessarily.
	It can be shipped to the old P.O. box and it goes through a forwarding process where you take two or three days.
	Perishable is not a good idea.
	Everything else?
	Love it.
	No Agenda Meetups.
	It's like a party.
	Party indeed.
	The No Agenda Meetups going strong.
	People love and hanging out together.
	That's what it's all about.
	And we have a brand new website at noagendameetups.com.
	Now you can do more faster.
	And it's just all around cooler.
	And you can get alerts and you can sign up.
	And I guess Sir Daniel is kicking ass over there.

	Just have a community in common and nothing else.
	But you'll love it.
	It works great.
	NoagendaMeetups.com.
	If you can't find no new you, why don't you start one?
	It's 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 flame.
	You want to be where everybody feels the same.
	Before we get to ISOs, I'd like to request a health karma for my Aunt Meg.
	Both she and Don are in the mid-90s, and she had a bad fall in the living room, broke several bones, had to have an operation.
	She has heart issues, and she was operated on two days ago.
	She's still in the ICU. Guardedly optimistic is the term.
	And I'm sure she and Don would agree that they've had great lives, but I would hate for it to end for them like this.
	So, health karma, and we're throwing a goat for Aunt Meg.
	You've got karma.
	Bye.
	Okay.
	Isos?
	Okay.
	Isos?
	I have two.
	What do you got?
	I have only one, so why don't you hit me with them first?
	All right.
	Why are you going...
	Why are you doing that?
	Well, because, you know, we don't have any...
	I can tell there's not going to...
	Well, maybe.
	Let's try this.
	Let's try prices.
	Prices go up.
	Okay.
	That's not bad.
	I like that.
	Prices go up.
	Okay.
	The other one's interesting.
	So interesting.
	Try mine.
	This is amazing!
	Didn't we just do this?
	I don't think so.
	It sounds like it's either one that we did last week or a week before.
	Oh, maybe you're right.
	Let me see.
	That's amazing.
	That was the one from last week.
	Yeah.
	This is different.
	It's obviously not the same one.
	This is amazing!
	You choose.
	I can't choose.
	Well, I like the prices went from the sounds of it.
	And it also was something we didn't talk about, but it's a fact.
	Prices go up.
	Up.
	Up.
	Let's do it.
	I like it.
	Yeah, we can use that.
	Number go up.
	Prices go up.
	It works for me.
	It works for me.
	Okay, um...
	I got a bunch of clips I can play, but I will just play the funnier ones.
	I have a weird one and a...
	Well, I got the Academy Award changes, which is not going to help.
	Oh, let's do that.
	I got one on the crappy cars at the post office.
	Let's do the Academy Award changes, because once again, no one will watch the award show, and it's fun to dance on the elite's grave.
	Yes, of course.
	What's it called?
	Academy Awards.
	Ah.
	Changes.
	After viewership for last year's Academy Awards plunged to a new low, the organization that hosts the Oscars is announcing big changes.
	Here's NPR's Mandelie Delbarco.
	At its height in 1998, the Oscars telecast pulled in 55 million viewers.
	Titanic won for Best Picture and Billy Crystal hosted.
	Last year's no-host Oscars hit a new low with just 10.4 million viewers watching Nomadland win for Best Picture.
	To try upping the ratings, Academy President David Rubin detailed changes in a letter to its membership.
	To streamline the event, categories such as film editing, original score, and makeup and hairstyling will be awarded before the live telecast with winner's speeches woven through the show.
	Oh, that sounds like a shit show.
	You're telling me.
	Oh my goodness.
	Who comes up with this idiocy?
	And then they're going to weave the bull crap, the ones they give out, they're going to weave the guys through the show.
	In other words, they're going to bring it in here and there just randomly.
	Oh, that is so annoying.
	That's like bad.
	You don't do that.
	No.
	Oh, gosh.
	It is bad.
	Oh, my goodness.
	Well, that's the death knell.
	There it is.
	It's done.
	No, there's never a death knell.
	It's done.
	It's done.
	Okay, I got the one funny clip.
	Well, it's kind of funny, if you think about it.
	All right, all right.
	Toddlers in blackface.
	Oh, it's a winner.
	In Massachusetts, a preschool temporarily shut down after a teacher had toddlers make and wear blackface masks.
	Our Boston NBC affiliate reporting the school has deactivated its Facebook page and the teacher involved was fired.
	Now, I'd like to know more about this.
	I'd like to know what they were doing.
	What was the plan?
	What was this teacher thinking?
	Well, they made these masks and the masks were like just black with the white around the mouth and white around, you know, they looked like a black face kind of design that you would do.
	And they get the kids to wear them.
	Did they have to do little skits or something?
	Did they have to dance?
	Like Mr.
	Bojangles?
	Mr.
	Bojangles?
	What the hell?
	The woman was fired.
	Oh, man.
	I'm going to put some blackface on my dog.
	It'll look good on her.
	Oh, that dog would be so funny in blackface.
	Well, we'll have to wait until Sunday to see what happens with the dog.
	Coming up next on NoAgendaStream.com, it is Double Thought Dimension, which has been on the stream for a couple of months, but this is their first post-show play.
	That means they're in hot rotation right now.
	Yeah, no kidding.
	We've got, I figured I'd roll out some Secret Agent Paul with a Putin Diddy as end of show.
	We have brand new end of show mix from B-Dubs and also, oh my goodness, Rolando Gonzalez rolling out his 48th end of show mix in his career so far.
	Coming to you from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA Region No.
	6 in the morning, everybody.
	I'm Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley, where the jets have not arrived, I'm John C. Dvorak.
	We return on Sunday with another Deconstruction Extravaganza.
	Remember us at Dvorak.org slash NA. Until Sunday, adios mofos!
	And such.
	F. W.
	And you don't know where there's fake news.
	Why don't you get your Gitmo fix?
	We'll be right back.
	Putin on the Ritz Dressed up like a million dollar trooper Trying not to look like Anderson Cooper Superpoopa Come let's mix where John Podesta walks with kids Oh,
	I mean pizzas in his midst Putin on the Ritz Sitting down with Harris, Zelensky thanked Vice President Harris for U.S. help and support over the years, but later in the day, he questioned why Western allies were waiting for the, a quote bombardment to begin bombardment to begin today we're gonna play a game that's as old as pain itself

	I'm all down for just baby teeth!
	Oh, how much longer can this go on?
	Please think of the children!
	How do you like bombardment?
	Bob-Bardman!
	Thousands of women and children are being evacuated on buses and trains.
	And let me be clear.
	I can say with absolute certainty.
	If Russia further invades Ukraine.
	There is no innovation.
	The United States together with our allies.
	And there is no such plan.
	If Russia escalating or de-escalating will impose significant and unprecedented economic costs.
	We are prepared.
	Families torn apart.
	To move forward with consequences.
	We have prepared.
	Washington's information.
	Together.
	Economic measures.
	Остаются факты.
	That will be switched, severe, and united.
	We will impose far-reaching financial sanctions and export controls.
	We will target Russia's financial institutions and key industries.
	It's astounding!
	And we will target those who are complicit and those who aid and abet this unprovoked invasion.
	The best podcast in the universe!
