	How come you didn't return my call?
	Adam Curry, John C. DeVore.
	It's Thursday, June 16, 2022.
	This is your award-winning Get My Nation Media Assassination, episode 1460.
	This is No Agenda.
	We're changing people's lives and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA Region No. 6.
	6.
	In the morning, everybody.
	I'm Adam Curry.
	And from Northern Silicon Valley where there's calls for Liz Cheney for president.
	I'm John C. DuBois.
	It's Crackpot and Buzzkill.
	In the morning!
	Now, who's calling for that?
	The Democrats?
	Yeah, of course.
	The Republicans, years and years ago, I remember this era when the Republicans were largely responsible for promoting the idea of Ed Muskie running for president.
	Ed Muskie?
	That sounds familiar.
	Ed Muskie is the guy who fell into tears during some speech or other and he was just, We just ruined this whole thing.
	Oh, back in the day when one small gaffe could actually ruin your career.
	That's changed?
	What?
	Oh, I think it's changed.
	You know why?
	The gaffes that ruined your career back then would ruin them now.
	Not like a Dean scream.
	I think it's, we have so many gaffes now.
	There's so much.
	No, but I think it was, I think you're generalizing from the perspective of Trump.
	No, no, no, not at all.
	Actually, Biden.
	From the perspective of Biden.
	Oh, no.
	Okay.
	Well, here's the deal.
	If you're going to use... Were you going to say, here's the deal?
	Were you going to say, here's the deal?
	No joke.
	I triggered that when I said Biden, all of a sudden.
	So here's the deal.
	Biden's being covered.
	I mean, the clips that we play, I have a few.
	I'm cutting my Biden clips down to a maximum of four.
	It's better for your health.
	No.
	I get a good laugh out of these clips, which is supposed to be good for your health.
	They're covering for Biden.
	These clips are never played by anybody but us.
	But he's saying this stuff.
	And the media covers for him makes him sound erudite when he's not.
	When he says things though, like this, this, uh, let's see, where's this most recent one?
	He, I mean, it's almost like we're living in a movie sometimes.
	You know, actually I've been, um, I'd never watched it before.
	Um, the, uh, what is it?
	The Man in the High Castle?
	Yeah, I couldn't watch it.
	I watched like the first two episodes and I thought it was tedious.
	Well, Tino was out, so, you know.
	I didn't watch any of it.
	I was like, just show me something.
	Any, and just, you know, let's see, is this the clip?
	Let me see.
	We're changing people's lives!
	I mean, it sounds so Der Fuhrer, you know, with a little bit of echo there.
	We're changing people's lives!
	What was the full, actually, here's the full quote.
	I don't want to hear any more of these lies about reckless spending.
	We're changing people's lives!
	Reckless spending does not create inflation.
	Just so you know.
	It's Putin.
	It's Putin.
	It's always been Putin.
	No, actually, it's not.
	It's some individuals.
	Some individuals and we must take care of them.
	This will come in handy.
	I don't know if you want to go to Biden, but I just have these two clips that are just bugging the hell out of me.
	Gina McCarthy, who used to be the EPA secretary under Obama.
	The worst.
	And she's dumb.
	She's not stupid.
	She's dumb.
	She's just dumb.
	And listen to what she says about social media companies and the issue of the great transition to green energy.
	And so the challenge is now that we're moving from denial to actually just trying to To disengage the public from understanding the values of solar energy, the values of wind energy, the benefits of clean energy.
	We have to get tighter.
	We have to get better at communicating.
	And frankly, the tech companies have to stop allowing specific individuals over and over again to spread disinformation.
	That's what the fossil fuel companies pay for.
	That's what folks who make money Can I just ask you a question?
	don't make money and don't care about saving consumers costs.
	That's what they do.
	We have to be smarter than that.
	And we need the tech companies to really jump in.
	Can I just ask you a question?
	If the oil companies are funding people on Twitter, where's our money?
	Where's our money?
	People are naive to think the oil companies do any of this.
	Well, of course they don't.
	Having worked for an oil company myself and then having worked as a government inspector of an oil company, a different one, I can assure you that they don't have a budget for this.
	It's really interesting that everyone's missing the one of the biggest, you know, issues as to, you know, why we have lost our energy independence.
	Um, let me see.
	Actually, do I have a, Here we go.
	Do you know John Kirby, who is now the National Security Advisor, I guess?
	He answered a question about this upcoming trip from the President, who just wrote a note to everybody saying, hey, make more oil, make more oil, get those prices down.
	Isn't Kirby still a spokesperson for the Defense Department or something like that?
	No.
	It's Jake Sullivan who's the other guy, who's the security advisor.
	Well, he was in the White House when he answered these questions.
	Oh, he's always full of ramblings.
	Well, here's Kirby about Saudi versus U.S.
	petroleum products.
	I have a question about U.S.
	national security.
	How is it that you guys have determined that it's in the U.S.
	national security interest to ask Saudi Arabia to drill more oil instead of just letting oil companies drill more here in the U.S.?
	Well, I think you know, Peter, there's some 9,000 unused drilling permits here in the United States as well.
	Look, the The oil production issue is a global issue and OPEC plus three has already increased preset increases by more than 50% just from July and August and we're grateful to Saudi Arabia's leadership on that but we've never said that we've never said it's a national security interest that somebody has to pump more oil and again there's unused permits here in the United States.
	What was never discussed and Peter Doocy never brings it up either, Mr. Fox News, is that there's no investment.
	They're talking about, oh, they have to do something right now.
	But the ESG rules have basically divested every large investment fund from anything.
	Exactly.
	And people say to me, why don't the companies just do this?
	Well, why would anyone, and it costs a lot of money to start anything up, and why would investors put something into that if with the stroke of a pen it can get blown away?
	I'm going to leave it alone.
	We made the jokes already.
	in there if you notice he says well there's 9 000 permits yeah exactly those nine could be 9 000 dry holes those permits there was everyone knew there was oil under those so what does a permit could be a permit in front of my house so what i'm gonna leave it alone we made the jokes already here's our energy secretary and and this is the most diabolical most twisted another dumb person dumb thing i've ever heard
	five years from now ten years from now are you telling me you want them drilling for more oil you want the refineries putting out more gasoline in five or ten years what we're saying is today we need that that supply increased.
	Of course, in five or ten years, actually in the immediate, we are also pressing on the accelerator, if you will, to move toward clean energy so that we don't have to be under the thumb of petro dictators like Putin or at the whim of the volatility of fossil fuels.
	Ultimately, America will be most secure when we can rely upon our own clean domestic production of energy.
	But that's the problem for these companies.
	These companies are saying, you know, you're asking me to do more now, invest more now, when in fact, five or ten years from now, we don't think that demand will be there.
	And the administration doesn't even necessarily want it Just one last question on Saudi Arabia.
	The President is going to Saudi Arabia, where we understand he will be meeting with the Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
	Is there any kind of promise beforehand that the Saudis will increase production?
	No.
	No, there's no promise beforehand.
	No, there's not.
	And let me just say, John, we really want to see us move to clean energy, but we also need to see this increase right now.
	And we are asking the oil and gas companies as well to diversify and make sure that they become diversified energy companies.
	To be able to produce other means of clean energy because they have huge deep pockets.
	They have a big ability to invest in the future as well as investing right now so that we don't see oil and gas causing the inflation numbers and people being hurt every day.
	Yeah, so please, make your big investments and in five years, you know, they'll pay off some other way.
	Magically.
	I mean, this is dumb.
	This is dumb.
	She had a pun in there that I thought was amusing.
	We don't want to deal with the volatility.
	The volatility of the oil market.
	What?
	What?
	Volatility, of course, is oil is, you know, volatile.
	It's because they light it on fire and whatever.
	There's a pun in there.
	It's a chemistry class point.
	Oh, I see.
	Okay.
	So, you know, blame inflation, not on the lies of reckless spending, it's Putin, of course.
	These horrible, horrible energy companies, which of course only makes for more funds and investment vehicles to not want to invest in them.
	Why invest in the old guys trying to transition?
	Go to the new, the new geniuses.
	No, the idea is to get, just to stop investment.
	Correct.
	Yeah.
	The ESG thing, plus the, you know, they're bad, bad, oil's bad.
	Yeah.
	This is crazy.
	Um, but the numbers came out, inflation even higher, doesn't seem like it's going to stop.
	Um, okay.
	I mean, I see bad times ahead, John, I really do.
	The world is so much more connected than it was in the 70s.
	Although we will have some good stuff.
	Some good things will happen.
	Maybe we will actually go back to the 1970s to solve something that was actually solved about, I don't know, when did Uber start?
	Did Uber start around 2010, 2012 maybe?
	No, later.
	I don't have the data off the top of my head.
	Originally, Uber was a ride-sharing app.
	Along with Lyft, and there's a third one that went out of business, curiously.
	But it was ride-sharing.
	You would share your ride.
	It was something that started kind of... I was going from here to there, and if you want to come along, you can share.
	Yes.
	You or your parents might remember gas lines from the 1970s, when gas was expensive and hard to find.
	Out of those days came carpooling.
	We're about to come get you.
	Where two or more people share the ride to split those gas costs.
	How you doing, son?
	You know, I think that we may see new apps appearing that are true rideshare, carpooling.
	Enough of this Uber stuff.
	Even the Uber drivers can't afford to drive the Uber.
	I love how you always laugh about these horrible things.
	You say uber is really what cracks me up.
	I'm sorry?
	It's your uber, your pronunciation of uber.
	It's like, it's like go.
	Oh, yeah, yeah.
	Well, there's an umlaut.
	It's a slightly German pronunciation.
	Because I've grown up saying uber.
	Yeah, you were just pronouncing it correctly, but it's a little like Stewie's pronunciation of cool whip.
	No, it's not.
	Because that's Stewie just being a dick.
	I'm just being a semi-German.
	Come on.
	Uber.
	California Uber Alles.
	Or as you would say, California Uber Alles.
	It's just a subtle difference.
	Uber Alles.
	Inflation, though, of course, has nothing to do really with Putin, has nothing to do with reckless spending, and who would know better than the former Secretary of Treasury, Uh, Larry Summers.
	Let's see what he blames inflation on.
	I think the banana Republicans who are saying that what happened on January 6th was nothing or okay ...are undermining the basic credibility of our country's institutions.
	And that, in turn, feeds through for inflation.
	Because if you can't trust the country's government, why should you trust its money?
	Psycho!
	Insurrectionists!
	January 6th!
	That's what caused it!
	That's an odd way of blaming Republicans.
	That's a good one.
	Or as he said... What did he call them?
	Banana Republicans.
	Banana Republicans.
	Which is good, by the way.
	It's creative.
	I've heard it in years.
	Oh, I don't know.
	Okay.
	News to me.
	Yeah.
	So, by the way, the hearings are... Yes, they were cancelled yesterday.
	Took off time immediately.
	And they were cancelled yesterday.
	They were supposed to have a hearing on Wednesday, and Monday they announced no hearing on Wednesday.
	You know, we have... They're going on right now.
	No, today.
	The one from yesterday was cancelled.
	There was one scheduled for yesterday and one for today.
	Oh, I thought they were gonna... I thought that was cancelled for a bad rating.
	It wasn't a bad rating.
	No, no.
	The excuse they gave was, you know, we're really short on staff, we're editing all this stuff together.
	Something happened, John, because this thing was scripted, it was tight, it was delivered, everyone knew their cues, everything was set, good to go.
	Perhaps because one witness couldn't make it because his wife is going to labor.
	I don't see how that could destroy the entire script.
	You're pretty lame.
	They went into rewrites on Wednesday.
	That's what happened.
	They went into rewrites and I think it's probably because after the initial tepid ratings, it died off and that was it.
	No one cared.
	Okay, we saw it.
	No one is interested in five more episodes.
	And so they're trying to do something I think something happened, and either it's panic or they have some crazy damning new evidence.
	They want to flip the script and bring this to the forefront, but I haven't seen anything pop up on the news wires yet, so doubtful.
	But the pilot, you know, the pilot basically bombed.
	Well, I mean, they had 20 million total, which means five per network.
	I got my phone ringing here for some reason, I wonder why.
	I was watching it today, because they're doing it now, it's like at two in the morning.
	It's really dull.
	I mean, these hearings, as you know, I know we both look at a lot of hearings and they're, they're extremely boring and you to find something funny in the whole hearing is hard.
	And then you have to cut it together.
	So it's tighter than it is.
	These guys can't just say hello.
	1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
	They got to go.
	Hello.
	1, 2.
	What do you mean between a cue and the clip?
	I don't have a clip.
	No, no, you said five seconds.
	What are you referring to?
	I don't understand.
	About what?
	What did I say?
	What you just said.
	You just said these guys are going one, two... No, I'm just saying if you play the clip, it would be somebody going one... Man, take that thing off the hook, please.
	Answer that or take it off the hook.
	No.
	It's only been 15 years that this damn phone has been ringing in the background.
	Take it off the hook!
	Or, shocker, get an answering machine with cassettes.
	Or, another shocker, maybe your phone company gives you voicemail.
	Well, I'll tell you something.
	I'm going to bring that up.
	Here's the deal.
	And you're giving me Bidenism.
	Stop!
	You're killing me this morning.
	It's no joke.
	I gave up completely on voicemail.
	I gave up on this machine.
	Remember the machines used to do the cute messages?
	Hey, you know, you do the messages and all this.
	So I used to have these machines.
	And so I'd come, I'd go on a trip.
	I'd come back and there'd be 40 messages on the machine.
	I can't answer these 40 messages or 60.
	Or a hundred.
	Wait, you wouldn't call in and do your little code and jot down all of your voicemails?
	No.
	Neither would I, of course not.
	But you can at least turn the ringer down.
	I'm supposed to take the phone off the hook before the show.
	No, because then we get D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D.
	Only you can hear that, by the way.
	Yes, yes.
	Super ears.
	Yes, yes.
	That only lasts about D-D-D-D-D-D about a minute max.
	Let me just play you.
	Well, let me finish.
	I'm sorry.
	So I go out to a meeting with some guy and he just- and it's some hotshot that runs some operation.
	And he chews me out for not returning his calls.
	And I started noticing this more and more.
	How come you didn't return my call?
	And so I'm not returning calls.
	I'm not getting a call to return.
	So I gave up on all of that.
	So I have no voicemail.
	If you don't get a hold of me live, you don't get a hold of me.
	There is a Google voicemail.
	I have a number of something that That gives me a Google voice.
	Now, I'm sure you never listen to it.
	I don't.
	No, I don't leave messages either.
	I'm like, ah, shit, wrong number.
	I gotta find you.
	You have 18 numbers.
	This was the same number.
	I've had the same number for 35 years.
	Yeah, well, finally, I got the real one that rings in your office.
	That one.
	In fact... Well, you're the one.
	Can't you just call me?
	Oh, I'm gonna start doing this now.
	I've never, 15 years, I've never thought of me calling you and saying... Just in the background, as you're talking, as I'm trying to make a point, you call me.
	Yeah, no, and then you pick it up and I'll say, take the phone off the hook.
	Exactly.
	So back to the conversation.
	So I'm listening to it this morning and there's this judge, they ask him, so what is it about you and why did you tell Mike Pence blah blah blah?
	And he says, and then he goes into his explanation.
	And it was so dull and it went on and the guy was pausing just like his usual pausing between every word because when I decided that when you're in a congressional hearing you have to be careful about what you say otherwise you can get, you know, thrown in jail.
	They get dinged for it, yeah.
	So you talk With very careful thought.
	And so it takes forever to get anything out.
	This is not good television.
	Unless you're gonna put a pie in your face, now that would be funny.
	What people need these days, and I hate to kind of say that Ron Bloom was right about that, because I hate it.
	They need shit flying on the screen.
	You know, you need sound effects.
	You know, you go to a clip and you...
	You need a lower third that just reiterates what is being said.
	Have you looked at cable news?
	Take a look.
	Whatever someone's saying, they put a lower third confirming what that person is saying.
	Yeah, and then there's noise between, you know, points.
	Yeah.
	That's what we need.
	Because Lord knows... Oh, I was going to play two more clips, but go ahead, what do you want?
	I was going to play the Biden clips, but I want you to wrap this up.
	Yeah, I just want to wrap up with the Ministry of Truth stuff.
	Dan Pfeiffer, who does not remember him, didn't he write scripts for Obama?
	I think he was...
	One of his main guys who somehow has now become a podcaster, so I guess he's not in the camp anymore.
	But that doesn't matter.
	On Morning Joe, he knows what to say.
	We absolutely should be able to pass them.
	We actually have to pass them.
	I think these social media companies are in many ways the tobacco companies of this era.
	They're exploiting loopholes in the law to deeply damage America at this capacity, or cancer metaphor.
	Yes.
	Social networks are cancer!
	Little to no regulation, and so we actually have to do it.
	Wait, hold on, back it up, stop it.
	The social media companies are exploiting loopholes in the law.
	Yeah, he's, I think he means section 203 with that?
	That's the law, it's not a loophole!
	If the law says stop at a red light, and then you stop at a red light, you're not exploiting a loophole.
	You're stopping at a red light.
	What is he talking about?
	Oh, well, this is all about regulations.
	More regulations.
	This is the same thing that Gina McCarthy was talking about.
	Regulations.
	We've got to crack down.
	We've got to be in partnership with these guys.
	They're not doing the right thing.
	They're un-American.
	And they're killing.
	What are they killing?
	Our democracy, John.
	We absolutely should be able to pass them.
	We actually have to pass them.
	I think these social media companies are in many ways the tobacco companies of this era.
	They're exploiting loopholes in the law to deeply damage America.
	It's a cancer metaphor.
	Wait, wait, stop again.
	I gotta get the whole thing straight.
	They're exploiting loopholes in the law to damage America.
	Yes!
	This is, don't you, where have you been?
	Don't you know that our democracy hangs by a thread?
	We've got Putin's price hike.
	We've got January 6, also known as Jan 6, J6, or 1 slash 6.
	That messaging never caught on either, you losers.
	Damn, man, they should just hire us.
	We would have called it something so stupid.
	They tried to carry through the meme of worse than 9-11 by making it 1-6.
	And it just doesn't take.
	The insurrection was probably the best thing that they had.
	The insurrection was close.
	The coup didn't work.
	No, of course not.
	Overthrow the government, please.
	But why would they- With no guns.
	Not one person was armed.
	And the only person shot was some protester.
	Poor girl.
	Let's continue this Dan Pfeiffer clip.
	By the way, of course I was joking, Dan Pfeiffer is still very much in the Obama camp because it is in fact Obama who's been pushing for this, pushing for it in his recent speech at the Silicon Valley Innovation Center, pushing for it since he was president.
	Remember, he was going to be the internet president.
	Here we go.
	This is really the extension of Obama speaking.
	Putting loopholes in the law to deeply damage America at this capacity, or cancer metaphor, and with little to no regulation.
	And so we actually have to do it.
	The reason that it is hard is it is right now not in the interests of a lot of Republicans do it.
	If you go to Facebook on a daily basis, the posts with the most engagement are from Dan Shapiro, or Ben Shapiro, Dan Bongino, Candace Owens.
	It is right-wing content.
	It dwarfs progressive content.
	It dwarfs mainstream media content, which is actually should be the part that scares us the most.
	That Ben Shapiro's daily wire has more-- That should scare you.
	No, no, no.
	There's something more.
	It's much scarier.
	That's what we need to be scared of.
	He's just saying it.
	He's blatantly saying it.
	be the part that scares us the most that ben shapiro's daily wire has more followers and engagement many times more than the new york times or cnn that's what we need to be scared of he's just saying it he's blatantly saying we we here mika we need to be scared that ben shapiro and dan bongino have more listeners engagement followers whatever he said than the new york times that's what we should be afraid of yes Yeah, exactly.
	Are you saying that, like, the Republican agenda is backed up by the freaks on Facebook and so they don't want to do anything about it?
	more followers and engagement many times more than the New York Times or CNN.
	That is a problem for democracy.
	Are you saying that like the Republican agenda is backed up by the freaks on Facebook and so they don't want to do anything about it?
	Absolutely.
	Absolutely.
	Just making sure.
	Yes, to be very clear is that Facebook is the most powerful messaging platform for the extreme MAGA message.
	That benefits the Republicans.
	They have very little, they like to cry about Facebook and big tech, and then they just laugh their way to the bank when Facebook pushes their message, including the big lie, into people's cerebrums all across this country.
	They're making money on it.
	They're making money.
	Let's get this straight.
	They're making money by pushing a MAGA message?
	How does this work?
	He in fact said... What did he say?
	He said... He didn't use the right one.
	They're laughing all the way to the bank.
	It wasn't the Ultra MAGA.
	The Mega MAGA?
	He said something else.
	Wasn't Zuckerberg the guy who put $400 million into trying to overturn the election in Minnesota or Wisconsin?
	He's been a huge Democrat supporter with his woke life.
	You're making a thinking mistake here.
	And then his wife is all into this thing, and now they're condemning the poor guy?
	I don't get it.
	They didn't condemn Zuckerberg, they condemned Facebook.
	They condemned Facebook because Facebook also wants the regulations.
	They want it!
	This is the whole point.
	Yeah, they want the regulation.
	And they want the regulation for exactly what the Department of Homeland Security Disinformation Governance Board was about to be operationalized to do.
	We talked about the whistleblower and the opera... opera... opera... opera... opera... When we get to the Biden clip, she'll feel better.
	When this first came out, we heard from Republicans, leading Republicans as well, people like Karl Rove who said, hey, look, this is an important mission for the Department of Homeland Security.
	They just chose the wrong person to lead it.
	So what we're really seeing here is this is the permanent Washington establishment seeing this quote-unquote ministry of truth, this information board as their propaganda arm and their means to control what we see, what we say, what we think.
	And it's really because they reject the Constitution and they see our freedom, our freedom of speech as a threat to their power.
	In To me, this sounds a whole lot more like a dictatorship than a democracy, which again is why we've got to get back to the Constitution, why we've got to stand up and take action to make sure something like this is not allowed to continue.
	The arrogance just is oozing out of them, and the fact that they don't seem to be aware of it is just as disturbing.
	But even when you look at how they're seeking to kind of work around the Constitution that exists to protect our rights and freedoms, they're doing this by partnering with these big tech social media companies and basically saying, hey, you're going to do our dirty work.
	You're going to go and work on this censorship.
	And kind of making sure people are not saying things we don't want them to say, because they know that if they just did it outright, if our government did this outright, the things that they were talking about in these documents you released, there would be an outcry.
	There would be protests in the streets.
	No.
	And so the fact that they are essentially working hand in glove with big tech shows just how much disregard they have for the Constitution.
	And you said they have no desire, no interest to work for the people or Constitution of the country.
	And they already had people ready to be operationalized.
	The Twitter's head of editorial for EMEA, Middle East and North Africa.
	Also serves with the 77th Brigade, which is an information warfare outfit.
	Uh, you know, he has a dual role.
	He's actually, uh, he's volunteering.
	In fact, uh, when questioned about, uh, about this... Who?
	Who?
	Gordon McMillan?
	Gordon McMillan.
	When, when... Oh, I thought... Oh, when, when, well, when Twitter was asked about this.
	Oh, is that what you meant?
	I'm sorry.
	When Twitter was asked about this...
	They say employees who pursue external volunteer opportunities are encouraged to do so in line with company policy.
	So you see, this being in the 77th Brigade is a volunteer opportunity.
	This whole thing is so... Stinks.
	Oh, but it's beyond stink at this point.
	But I disagree.
	I don't think... I disagree with Tulsi.
	I don't think the people would be running hair on fire in the streets if the government said, no, we're just cutting this off.
	In fact, in the UK, a man was just jailed for 20 days for posting George Floyd memes in a WhatsApp group.
	Wow.
	And someone took that, tweeted it out, um, now he's a, he's connected to law enforcement.
	So, you know, bad look for you, bro.
	But he, now he's been jailed.
	I mean, they've got, they've got these crazy, I mean, there is no freedom of speech in the, there's no freedom of speech in Canada or New Zealand or in Australia for that matter.
	But it's kind of being codified.
	So.
	Yeah, well, she's right about one thing.
	I think that that stupid disinformation operation would have probably gone further if they didn't pick a dingbat to run ahead of us.
	But this is not stopped.
	They haven't stopped this.
	No, you're right.
	The dingbat's still running it.
	It's still running.
	It's just running.
	I mean, the Chertoff.
	You think Chertoff's going to be like, oh, well, good try, everybody.
	No.
	No, they're doing that.
	And get a Mastodon account, people.
	Seriously.
	All right, let's walk into Biden.
	Okay.
	Even though it's a violation.
	Yes.
	So let's start the bottom up and go with that.
	This is the one I was thinking of when you were there stammering about it.
	I don't know what the problem was, but listen to this and tell me what he says here.
	This is Biden.
	WTF did he say?
	Not enough, but $800 million.
	That should help respond to the influx of refugees from Venezuela.
	I think.
	Let me hear it again.
	Not enough, but 800 million dollars, that says that will help respond to the influx of refugees from Venezuela.
	I think he wanted to say, it should be necessary to have that 800 million, I don't know, all I heard was 800 million dollars of our money that's going to Venezuela.
	Yeah, well, we got a lot of money flying around.
	Mm-hmm.
	Okay, so that one was...
	Now here he is, and all he's doing is reading, which is what's weird.
	Here he is, this is the visas clip.
	Okay.
	We're also dedicated to an additional 11,500 H-2B non-agriculture temporary work visas to open opportunities for workers from Haiti and North Central American countries.
	Mexico, Guatemala, Canada, and Spain.
	A lot of visas.
	Well, besides stumbling all over the whatever kind of visa he's talking about.
	What's Spain got to do with the Americas or anything?
	What's Spain?
	What is Spain?
	They're South America, aren't they?
	We got Mexico, we got Canada, we got Central America, we got Spain.
	From Haiti and North Central American countries.
	Mexico, Guatemala, Canada, and Spain.
	Canada!
	Canada.
	Canada too.
	Yeah, North Central.
	It's worth playing that little end exactly the same because he said, I think it just says North Central South America or something.
	I'll go back a little bit here.
	Temporary work visas to open opportunities for workers from Haiti and North Central American countries.
	Mexico, Guatemala, Canada and Spain.
	North Central American countries, Canada, Spain.
	Oh my goodness.
	Yeah.
	The mainstream, they said for Australia and that one woman will not play these clips.
	Let's go with this.
	This one here is just, I don't know, maybe this makes sense.
	Maybe it doesn't make sense.
	You know what the thing of the difference is with Sky News, the lady who, who plays all the gaffes and she's expanded to Kamala Harris now.
	Yeah.
	It's like we're embarrassed to play it.
	Oh yeah, she's gleeful.
	She's like, woo!
	I got another!
	Although, you know, by now, we've seen all the montages.
	They're a little bit behind, I think.
	They are a bit.
	They're slipping a bit.
	They don't have this one.
	This is smuggling.
	The United States has worked with our partner nations to raid stash houses and pound vehicles, use smuggling operation for use for smuggling operations.
	We're using smuggling operations, Joe?
	Alright.
	I could go on for days with these, but that was that one.
	Now here's the one, the last one, which I'm going to top is the key one.
	And it is, this is the second time this has happened.
	He cannot say the word autocracy.
	Huh.
	We had a clip before where he tried to say it and he was maybe can't read it when he sees the word and and by the way I think at this point some of the speech writers or at least somebody in the office are throwing putting I've read from prompters and I know that some people can write well for a prompter and some people can't.
	I mean, you can write your own copy if you want to, but then it tends to be tedious.
	But if you're reading somebody else's copy that's put on a prompter, you can get screwed up real easy by somebody who either can't do it well or is having fun.
	Well, as we know, Trump, who of course has done many of these even outside of political life, He had his own prompter guy, he had his own sound guys, he had his own microphones.
	You have to be that anal, that's what I learned in television.
	If you're not best friends with the prompter people...
	Then, uh, you know, in fact, that's the person you want to immediately buy a coffee or a drink or whatever, because they're going to be one with you.
	They're scrolling back and forth.
	When you screw up, they'll be able to go back.
	The ones that are active, are listening, are incredibly, in fact, I'm surprised they were not thanked at the Chonies.
	I'm sorry, I missed that?
	I'm surprised no prompter operators were thanked at the Chonies.
	The Chony Awards.
	The Chonies.
	The Tonys!
	Oh, the Tonys.
	Oh my, we can talk about that just for a second, but let's finish with this biting clip.
	Because I thought the Tonys were, it did me a huge favor.
	It showed me how many plays I definitely do not want to see.
	Including the number one.
	Are we talking about it now?
	Are we talking about it now?
	Okay, okay, okay.
	So back to this.
	I think that they throw the word autocracy into the prompter because they know he can't pronounce it.
	Oh, you think it's on purpose.
	I think it's on purpose because if a guy flubs so badly as he did before with the word, why are you putting it in another little speech?
	Now watch him flub.
	He flubbed it before and became self-conscious.
	This time it's unbelievable.
	Triggered by teen pandemic.
	Whoa, man, that is so sad.
	Now, part of that is his lifelong stutter, which, you know, I think they're just looking for words to actually trip him up.
	You may be right.
	in our region has led to record levels of migration. - Whoa, man, that is so sad.
	Now, part of that is his lifelong stutter, which, you know, I think they're just looking for words to actually trip him up.
	You may be right.
	And I think there's something to that.
	The New York Times, I'm sure you heard or saw the opinion piece that they put together.
	Should Biden run in 2022?
	Democratic whispers of no start to rise.
	They're out to get him.
	They are out to get him.
	Well, they don't want it because ever since he announced he was going to run in 2024, if you recall when he ran against Trump, he kind of made a point that he's going to run for one term just to get Trump out.
	He said that a number of times on the campaign trail.
	No, I'm just running for this one term.
	And of course, then he puts Kamala Harris in and you don't want her.
	So, and then all of a sudden he says, yeah, I'm running again.
	I'm gonna go run for reelection because it went to his head.
	Yeah, they got to stop that.
	And so, uh, no, so wait a minute.
	So in line with that, now they, now they need to put the trip words in.
	So he looks even less presidential so they can take him down.
	However, I mean, they're taking him down when Don Lemon, when the man who cried when Biden won the election, he cried, he cried.
	He literally cried.
	I wish I had the crying clip.
	Listen to him now as he discusses the president's autocracy, the president's stamina with Karine Jabbar-Jean-Pierre.
	Does the president have the stamina, physically and mentally, do you think, to continue on even after 2024?
	Don, you're asking me this question!
	Oh my gosh!
	He's the president of the United States!
	You know, he... I can't even keep...
	Does the president have the stamina, physically and mentally, do you think, to continue on even after 2024?
	Don, you're asking me this question!
	Oh my gosh!
	He's the president of the United States.
	You know, he... I can't even keep up with him.
	We just got back from New Mexico.
	We just got back from California.
	That is... That is not a question that we should be even asking.
	Just look at the work that he does.
	Look what he's... how he's delivering for the Americans.
	Now, there's a little bit more to this clip.
	This clip was cut off by most clippers on Twitter and YouTube, the stuff that goes viral, right after she said, that's a question we shouldn't even be asking.
	Which, of course, is a signal to Don saying, what the heck are you doing, bro?
	You should not be asking this question.
	But then after the cutoff part is where we see what's really bothering the administration.
	The United States, you know, he, I can't even keep up with it.
	We just got back from New Mexico.
	We just got back from California.
	That is, that is not a question that we should be even asking.
	Just look at the work that he does.
	Look what he's, how he's delivering for the American public.
	Look, that article that we're talking Okay.
	So she says that article that we're talking about... Maybe it was mentioned before this question?
	I doubt it?
	That's what's on her mind.
	Crap, it's the New York Times article.
	So this is full-on war.
	The knives are out.
	Look, that article that we're talking about is hearsay.
	It's salacious.
	That's not what we care about.
	We care about how we're going to deliver for the American people.
	How are we going to make their lives better?
	That's what the president talks about.
	That is his focus.
	And that's where we're going to continue to focus on.
	Do you think Kareen Abdul-Jean-Pierre at this point is regretting her decision?
	Oh yes, I'm getting handed the scepter by Jen.
	It'll be great.
	And this job sucks.
	Well, I have a couple of clips of her at the press conference.
	Ooh, good.
	That's a general ooh of excitement.
	Generally, I'm referring to her as KLP.
	Oh, okay.
	So, uh, she's asked about the economy.
	What does the L stand for?
	Does it lead to something?
	She's got an L in there?
	So she's got, she's got Corinne Louise Jean-Pierre.
	Well, I've got it down as KLP.
	Lucy.
	We'll just call her Lucy.
	Corinne Lucy Jean-Pierre.
	Yes.
	So, uh, I have KJP and KLP.
	I forgot which one is the right one.
	That's KJP, but one of them I mislabeled.
	Yes.
	Okay.
	Got it.
	Yes.
	Okay, so the KLP babbling.
	Now, she's asked about inflation and this and that.
	She's asked very specific questions.
	Again, it's by, usually the only guy who asks good questions is Doocy.
	And she can't answer the questions.
	She's not erudite.
	She stumbles and mumbles.
	She's kind of a goofball.
	I think that clip of her on Don Lemon that you play where she goes giddy.
	Like a little teenager is kind of indicative of her.
	And when she actually has to act smart, she can't do it.
	And here's a good example.
	With what we're seeing at the moment at inflation, you know, Putin, Putin's price hike, inflation coming coming out of a once in a generation global pandemic, all all of those things play a factor.
	And, you know, but the thing the way that we see this is that the American people are well positioned to face these challenges because of the economic historic Okay, so as you say that Americans are well positioned to weather this stock market decline, what is the President's message to somebody who might want to retire, but their 401k is getting wiped out?
	So, we know that high prices are having a real effect on people's lives.
	We get that.
	And we are incredibly focused on doing everything that we can to make sure that the economy is working for every American people.
	Every American.
	She's losing it.
	Every American people.
	She says that, but he's asking specifically about a 401k.
	She doesn't know what a 401k is.
	Wow.
	I'll make that assertion because he asked a very specific question about the 401ks.
	And she talks about inflation.
	And at the beginning, she uses the term Putin's price hike, which is Biden's term.
	It's dumb.
	It makes no sense.
	So she's into the Putin price hike, that crazy thing she said about the American peoples or something.
	And she doesn't know what a 401k is.
	She's dumb.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, I don't think she's the brightest light.
	She's got a lot of social credit.
	She's very high on the ESG score.
	Very low on the IQ scale, I think.
	Or maybe... She's not low on the IQ scale, but she's been programmed.
	She's been programmed with one message, and when it's challenged, she doesn't... because she's only used to MSNBC and CNN.
	She's not, you know, I don't think she's ever been on Fox or anyone's really ever...
	She may have not ever been challenged in her adult life because of what she looks like.
	Maybe.
	Let's play part two.
	But we are coming out of the strongest job market in American history, and that matters.
	And a lot of that is thanks to the American Rescue Plan, which only Democrats voted for that.
	Republicans did not.
	And it led to this historic economic boom that we're seeing with jobs.
	And it also leads to historic inflation.
	No, that is not how we're seeing the American Rescue Plan.
	No, it was not supposed to create inflation.
	That's not how we see it.
	I'm tired of these lies!
	No, that's not what she said.
	She said, that is, that is, that is, that is, that is, that is, that is, that is not how we see it.
	Oh man, it's so obvious.
	And now, does she identify as LGBT?
	And by the way, I hear her say LGBTQI+.
	That seems to be this administration's official terminology.
	LGBTQI+.
	Um, you know, the G's have been kicked out of the group.
	I don't know if she's an L or an I or a Q. I know she, I think she's, I don't know if she's married, but she has a partner and they have a kid.
	Um, but I don't know how she identifies because, you know, we have, I think, predicted that the L's would get kicked out of the group as well.
	Eventually, yeah.
	Well, it's happening.
	And it's happening on a big scale.
	This is from Pod News this morning.
	During Pride Month, Google Podcasts is blocking and hiding some podcast episodes, apparently because they use the word lesbian.
	RPG Realms of Peril and Glory's June the 13th episode, visible everywhere else, isn't available on Google Podcasts in the US, UK or Australia, even to logged in over 18 users.
	The podcast creators say there's nothing adult in this episode at all.
	Yeah, I'm gonna say that that's a mission.
	You can't just say lesbian by themselves.
	It has to be LGBTQI+.
	Holy mackerel, what a great clip.
	Thank you.
	You're welcome.
	I'm not giving you a clip of the day because it's too short.
	You might for this next one.
	Get it.
	Okay.
	This is our newly confirmed Department of State Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer.
	Uh, did you know, uh, that we had that, uh, division?
	No, no, it just sounds like another waste of the taxpayer's money, but go ahead and spend it.
	Well, here's what's interesting.
	Uh, this particular, let me just get, I, I pulled her, um, uh, somewhere, I pulled her, uh, her Wikipedia.
	This woman who is the new head of this, she's had an incredibly impressive career.
	She went to all the right schools.
	I mean, I'm talking Georgetown, everything you could possibly imagine.
	I'll look for it while I'm playing this clip.
	Her name is Gina Amber Crombie Winstanley, just to make it even more interesting.
	Oh, yes.
	I believe she is Ados.
	She has very natural hair, which she's displaying proudly, which I like.
	I like the cool fro, and she's got some gray streaks on the sides.
	She definitely looks cool, but holy moly, this is going to be nuts.
	Hello, Twitter World!
	I'm Ambassador Gina Abercrombie-Winstanley, the U.S.
	Department of State's first Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer.
	I'm delighted to welcome you to the State Department's newest Twitter account, at State Department DEIA.
	Secretary Blinken made it clear in his confirmation hearing that he would judge the success of his tenure based on how well he could build a State Department that reflects the rich diversity of our nation.
	Carrying that charge even further, President Biden issued an executive order almost a year ago today to ensure that all federal government agencies make advancing equity a core part of their work.
	Our DEIA work rests on three principles, intentionality, transparency, and accountability.
	Building a more diverse, equitable, inclusive, and accessible department is an ongoing mission that is the job of every single person in the department.
	We must be intentional in our actions if we're going to see the change that we want.
	When it comes to transparency, we have established an agency DEIA focused data team.
	What's a job series?
	Well, you got me.
	I mean, I could guess.
	a detailed picture of who we are as an organization, broken down by race, gender, disability status, employment category, grade, rank, and job series.
	What's a job series?
	Well, you got me.
	I mean, I could guess.
	No, if you don't know, it's okay.
	Accountability is about ensuring that individual State Department employees and our organization as a whole truly forward the DEIA mission.
	It's about creating incentives that reward those who advance DEIA, as well as strengthen consequences for those who discriminate, harass, or employ bullying or other toxic management practices in the workplace.
	When we advance transparency, accountability, and accessibility for the most underrepresented in our institution, this inherently creates a more equitable meritocracy for everyone.
	It's a win-win for all.
	Now change won't occur overnight.
	This is just the beginning.
	Follow our Twitter account and engage with us on this important topic as we forge ahead together to Advance DEIA at State.
	So this to me sounds totally like in a movie.
	Where the, you know, where the crazy regime is cracking down.
	It sounds like a science, it sounds like a dialogue.
	Yes.
	If you told me, hey, listen, you gotta listen to the script from this science fiction film.
	You would have believed it.
	Called, and you gave it a name, phonied it out, and played it, I'd be all in on it.
	Now the reason I want to follow this woman is listen to her career.
	She joined the United States Foreign Service in 85, posted to Baghdad.
	Then she served at U.S.
	embassies in Jakarta, Indonesia, Cairo.
	She became Special Assistant for Middle Eastern and African Affairs.
	I'm already at spook.
	Yeah, to Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Lawrence Eagleburger.
	After a year of intensive Arabic language training in Tunisia, she became a political officer at the U.S.
	Embassy in Tel Aviv.
	Focusing on Israel-Palestine relations, then she was assigned to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
	From 98 to 2000, she served roles in the National Security Council as Director for the Arabian Peninsula and Near East-South Asia Center, later as Director of Legislative Affairs.
	Consul General to Jeddah in Saudi Arabia.
	From 2002 to 2005, she was the first female Consul General in that location.
	It's like an ambassador.
	While there, she survived an Al-Qaeda attack on the consulate on December 6, 2004, was cited for acts of courage during the attack, won a medal for it.
	She served as Director for Middle East Area Studies and Foreign Service Institute.
	Spent two years as director for Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, and Jordan at the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs.
	2012, President Barack Obama nominated her to be U.S.
	Ambassador to Malta.
	That's a reward.
	Chill out, lady.
	We'll come back to you later.
	Yeah, there's a couple of these.
	Malta's one of them.
	Apparently, the Vatican is the best.
	Yeah, it's the best.
	Because it's just all dinners.
	So this is very significant, I think.
	You do not appoint someone like this to this bullcrap job unless you are dead serious about, like, really changing some shit.
	Don't you think?
	Either that or she's being punished.
	It seems like she did a great job.
	Yeah, but we don't know behind the scenes.
	Come on.
	She made me a loud mouth.
	She got the vacation in Malta.
	She's perfect.
	She's perfect for anything.
	The Malta thing is kind of the giveaway that she's been doing okay.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, you don't get Malta if people are mad at you.
	No.
	And Barack gave it to her.
	As you're by John.
	Barack gave it to her.
	So, no.
	I think this is really, there's more to be pushed.
	Always hilarious.
	You know, we gotta... this obviously has to be part of our... on our list of things to follow consistently.
	Yeah.
	Which brings me to... Can I please play something?
	Because it goes back to something you told us about, and I say us because I didn't know about it either.
	What?
	Well, propaganda or...
	Influencing, this is what we're talking about, or influencing people through visuals and through media, if it's broadcast or not, used to be very, very different.
	And you were telling us about the driver's education.
	Now, did you not teach driver's education, I think?
	Yeah, as a substitute teacher.
	Right.
	And you were talking about these horrific crash videos that they would show.
	Yeah.
	Red Asphalt, somebody pointed out, was one of them.
	But there's a number of them.
	They have these distinctive names.
	They are horrible!
	Oh, you got to watch one?
	Oh my goodness!
	I had to stop after the first video.
	Of course, I pulled 30 seconds of clip.
	But what you see is real car crashes with people really smashed up and bleeding and crying and puking and the jaws of life.
	And it's on-scene accident footage.
	It's better than anything I've seen today.
	These are the sounds of excruciating agony.
	There are no words to describe agony.
	These were not crisis actors.
	But then listen to the voiceover.
	These are the sounds of excruciating agony.
	There are no words to describe agony.
	There are only sounds.
	This is not a pretty motion picture.
	It is not supposed to be.
	It has only one purpose.
	To cause you to take time to think whenever you set foot in any powered vehicle.
	I mean, I'll bet you that shit works!
	It might, I don't know, I never saw any data on it.
	Can you imagine, like, Pete Buttigieg saying, hey, we have some new materials we're going to use in Driver's Ed, like, we think it'll be very effective against teaching children to be, you know, responsible drivers, and they roll that out?
	His head would be chopped off.
	Yeah, the parents would be upset.
	Yeah.
	Oh, we can't have this.
	You can't show my kid that.
	Exactly.
	Although, I'd love to see the data.
	I'll bet it was super effective.
	I don't know.
	I mean, I've never seen data at all.
	Link in the show notes, people, if you want to see them all.
	There used to be another series of these things that used to show in shop class.
	When you get your thumb zipped off?
	At least.
	Minimum.
	So I had, I've never seen these either, but I was at the, just another story, but I'll tell it anyway.
	I was at the University of California and they wanted, during when I was there, they used to do all these psychological experiments on you.
	Yeah.
	That's called MKUltra.
	No, no, you could sign up for these things and you get paid like a couple hundred bucks to go in.
	Yeah, MKUltra.
	Yeah, well, I suppose there was MKUltra stuff, but most of it wasn't.
	And somebody told me about one of the experiments and said, oh my God, they just strapped you in a lie detector lash up, and then they showed you these horrible movies, and they showed two or three of these movies, and I said, Wow, I gotta go check.
	I've heard about these movies, I've never seen them, so I went to the movies and they strapped me into a lie detector operation, I got like 200 bucks to do this, and they showed two of the movies I remember the most.
	One was this movie, I've never seen it, but it's very famous in, I guess, in the 50s, where these aborigines do a circumcision on a boy.
	Oh no!
	And so the idea is they, the boy is like, he finds out this is his day.
	It's almost like Logan's run.
	It's his day.
	They're going to do it.
	And so they chase this kid all over the place.
	And then they finally grab him and they grab him.
	They, they put his dick on a rock and they take another rock and they just start pounding the crap out of it until the end of it falls off.
	And it's like, holy moly, this is the worst thing I've ever seen.
	It's gruesome.
	And it's a famous movie.
	You can look that one up and watch it too.
	And then the other one was the shop class movie.
	Well, hold on, hold on a second.
	So you said you saw this.
	Did they have you wired up when you were watching?
	Yeah, yeah.
	Oh my god, I wonder what your MKUltra trigger word is.
	I don't know, but you can experiment.
	Okay.
	So, now the other one was the Shop Class movie where the guy gets his hand cut off, and they're pushing a beam, some big log, they're pushing it through a saw, and the saw catches a knot or something, and the log, this 2x4 or whatever it is, Flies across the shop and impales some guy.
	This black blood is coming out of his mouth.
	This one's a little more dramatized.
	But the guy afterwards, he looks at my results.
	These graphs.
	He says, I don't know what it is, but you seem to be anticipating this pretty well.
	He says, you were, you were all over the place.
	This is unusual because I guess most of the people caught, they got caught in by surprise, but I knew what these movies were because a friend of mine told me.
	So I was like, I guess like a nervous wreck waiting to watch them.
	And so I, they had to kick my numbers out.
	Let me try.
	Um, the trigger word is foreskin.
	Kill all humans!
	So I wanted to do a... That's a horrible story, by the way.
	Of all the things I've heard this week, that's the worst.
	It's worse than the accidents.
	Oh, when you see the movie, you'll be grossed out.
	Especially chasing this poor kid around.
	Hey, guess what?
	I'm not gonna watch this one.
	I am not gonna watch this one.
	Don't expect it.
	Do not expect it at all.
	Woo!
	Good story, by the way.
	Same voiceover guy.
	That's a deep voice.
	I wanted to do a new piece on this show called the millennial minute.
	And I hope somebody can come up with a nice jingle with a jingle because it, and I hope hopefully Jay's not listening.
	Cause I told her I was going to do this, but she's come up with stuff like this a lot.
	And I think a lot of millennials do.
	And it's a, and it was triggered by my discussions with her about in California.
	Wait, I think I have something.
	Millennial report.
	That's all I got.
	Yeah.
	It's close enough.
	Good enough for now.
	For now.
	Thank you.
	It was triggered by my discussion with her of, uh, a conversation I have with Brunetti and Alex at the, at the restaurant, whereas Alex had sold some property and I had said, well, what'd you get for it?
	And, and she said, she was like, looking back and forth, like, what are you asking me this for?
	As this, as if, you know, it's not normal in California, which I explained to Jay and even Dana mentioned.
	Yeah.
	Well, how would you, what'd you get for it?
	He wanted to know.
	So in California, we openly discuss real estate deals with each other as, as citizens of the state.
	You mean you discuss how much you paid your mortgage percentage, all of that stuff?
	Yeah.
	Very common in California to discuss in great detail.
	It's like, cause you're all part of the same team.
	And so you discuss what'd you pay for that?
	We paid this, we paid that we paid six.
	Well, we could have got, you know, we got overbid.
	Everybody talks about in other parts of the country.
	And I mentioned this to her.
	It's looked upon as rude.
	But not in California.
	So Californians always have to be aware of this.
	And I said, you know, in California, it's like no different than asking somebody what the salary is.
	And she says, and this is what the Millennial Minute's about, she says, oh, oh, that's illegal.
	Really?
	I said, what?
	She says, yeah, it's illegal.
	You can't ask somebody what, how much money they make.
	Yeah, you can.
	I said, what are you talking about?
	This is, well, how is it illegal in any sense?
	She says, no, no, it's illegal.
	I said, look it up.
	So she grabs the thing and looks.
	It turns out that this question is a, it's a huge issue on the internet because people think it's illegal and it's not.
	And she's looking at all these other people asking the question.
	She says, oh yeah, I guess it's not illegal.
	And I'm thinking, why did you think it was illegal in the first place?
	I was totally aghast.
	I can hear you're still kind of upset about it.
	It's like, what?
	And I've noticed this before.
	She's done this a couple of times.
	It's a millennial thing.
	This is the education system drilling weird stuff into our kids' brains.
	Why is it illegal to ask somebody how much money they make?
	I mean, tell me why she couldn't come up with an answer.
	She did this a number of years ago.
	Could it be that perhaps she's confused with the hiring process?
	Because it may be illegal, and you can certainly, in most states, it is illegal to ask someone how old they are.
	In a hiring situation, because that could be... Actually, I don't know if it's illegal.
	It may not be illegal, but you open yourself up to a lawsuit immediately.
	There may also be some perceived legality around a potential employer asking your previous salary, but I don't think that's illegal either.
	It's exactly what I was thinking.
	But she's not in that category of person that would be, you know, that had been trained in that regard.
	She had to get this from schooling or from her peers.
	I mean, it reminds me, I'll do one more of these because... Well, can I ask you a question?
	Can I ask you a question?
	Sure.
	So, when you, as the wise oracle that you are, said, no, that's not true, did she believe you or did she go with the science?
	She looked it up.
	She didn't believe me.
	She thought I was just another old fart that, you know, didn't know what he was talking about.
	I had another example of this.
	It goes back a couple of years.
	It was the same kind of thing.
	I'm driving with her in the car.
	I had a camera in the car.
	And across the street, this is like during Halloween or something.
	And there's a bunch of, it's a line of kids and they're beautifully lined up going up the street with their teacher in front holding a flag.
	And they're marching, marching, marching.
	They're dressed like ducks.
	And one's dressed like a rat.
	There's a bunch, it's a funny looking picture.
	I said, I got to take this picture.
	And she freaks out.
	Oh, no, no, no, you can't do that.
	It's illegal to take pictures of children.
	What?
	I said, what are you talking about?
	Same thing.
	I like the illegal part.
	I mean, it, uh, I think certainly, um, you can't just go up.
	What?
	Good catch because in both instances, it wasn't wrong or it wasn't a bad idea.
	It was illegal.
	I wonder what else is illegal.
	Well, that's why I want the Millennial Minute, because I'm sure there's tons.
	And I'm sure, and here's what I think, I think I'm not the only one observing this with their Millennial children, and I'm sure other people out there have got their own stories to throw into the pot, because it's outrageous.
	This is very interesting.
	I have not known, of course, I don't have Millennials around me, haven't had for a couple of years.
	Boy, do I miss it.
	I so miss the Millennials around.
	Um, that is fair around because you get, you get material, but it's like, wow, what kind of crazy material are we talking about?
	That's almost upsetting because that is some deep, deep rooted conviction there that I'm hearing.
	Oh no.
	Yes.
	Especially the, for sure.
	If you're just going to photograph some, some kids somewhere, it's polite to say, Hey, can I take a picture of your kids?
	She looks so cute.
	Which actually kind of immediately pegged you as a pedo.
	That's creepy.
	But catching a picture of a group of kids walking up the street on Halloween, it's not illegal.
	It's beside the point, whether it's creepy or not, it's not illegal.
	It's not illegal to ask someone how much money they make.
	I mean, this whole idea of all these things being illegal, I'm sure there's more on this list that I don't know about.
	I love this.
	I think this is a very good segment.
	And I know we have lots of millennials listening who will chime in and will let us know.
	And they may be surprised.
	You know, I thought it was illegal to ask somebody how much money they made.
	Just like I bet you there's a bunch of them out there.
	You know what's not illegal?
	Uh, what?
	Does it involve money?
	It's not illegal for me to say in the morning to you, and thank you for your courage, the man who put the sea in the cocks with rocks, ladies and gentlemen, Mr. John C. Dvorak!
	Well, in the morning to you, Mr. Adam Curry.
	In the morning all the ships and seaboats and the ground crew and the air subs and the water.
	In the morning to the trolls in the troll room.
	Trolls, how are you doing?
	It's a Thursday.
	Let's see.
	Oh, hold up your hands.
	They're scurrying away.
	You never know.
	Yeah, it's kind of what I expected at 1873.
	Thursday's still dragging.
	Still dragging at this new time for the troll room.
	But, I mean, to have all those people listening live and to have a lot of people trolling is quite enjoyable.
	We certainly like seeing you here.
	We do the show live on Thursdays and Sundays.
	If you're using one of the new podcast apps, it actually now alerts you.
	I think Podverse has a built-in ping.
	It'll say, hey, the show is live.
	That's the new bat signal.
	Check that out.
	Really?
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	And not only that, but you open it up and it starts playing the stream in your podcast app, but also gets the troll room right there in the app.
	Yeah.
	I know, we're kicking it.
	Before we go any further, may I play a short clip in this segment?
	I was going to wait for it.
	Okay, so Podcasting 2.0 started almost two years ago.
	The whole point was re-decentralize.
	Now, of course, podcastindex.org is a centralized resource, but there are now tens of thousands of copies of our database.
	We make a full dump available.
	There's an open API.
	Dumps, they call them dumps.
	Huge, huge dumps.
	Well, we have almost, I think, 58 or 59 podcast apps and services using the index.
	So, you know, this was anti-deplatforming.
	So, you know, if you want to listen to the X22 report, you can get it in a Podcasting 2.0 app.
	But in addition to that, we have all these new features that I always talk about, about the chapters and the transcript and on and on.
	And we also have something called Value for Value Streaming Payments, I'm sure you're aware, where you can implement in a digital fashion with the Lightning Network.
	So in real time, as you're listening to a podcast, you can say, I want to send like a dollar an hour in 60 increments to this podcast as I'm listening.
	It's pay-to-play, it's play-to-pay.
	And this goes completely from the listener to the podcaster.
	They can give a piece to the app and everybody can make it.
	I mean, it's all small, it's minor, but we have almost 8,000 podcasts now using this and actively receiving Satoshis for their content on a value-for-value basis.
	Some of them are learning how it actually works.
	We have to have that feedback loop like we're about to do right now.
	But then, this morning, someone sends me this clip of Mark Andreessen, who I kind of know from, like, 1993, when I had a Gopher server for MTV.com, and he said, hey man, try out this new thing.
	I built this web browser, Mosaic.
	And so I set up one of the first, you know, web servers, which worked, you know, with this new software, Mosaic.
	Now, Mark Andreessen went on to create Netscape, is now, I would say, a very wealthy Silicon Valley venture capitalist, Um, was it Andreessen Horowitz Ventures?
	And so he's being interviewed about Web 3!
	Web 3!
	Web 3.0!
	You know, which is this mythical bullshit that all of Silicon Valley is trying to sell to everybody.
	I think the metaverse has part of this to do with part of it.
	But now listen to what he says about Web 3, because, you know, whenever someone says, well, what's a great application for Web 3, man?
	What's it going to look like?
	What's it going to be?
	What I'm hoping and what we're actually seeking at the firm, what we're trying very hard to find.
	I'm hoping, for example, for podcasts, I'm hoping five years from now, there will be these thriving, you know, call it web three podcast environments that will be open and will be, you know, it will have this sort of anarchic uncontrolled kind of element that I think that I think you and I both like.
	However, we'll have a higher level of trust and we'll have a higher level of monetary incentive and economic incentive than the open networks of the past usually did.
	And so there's this third way.
	And this is still early, but we're quite optimistic that there might be a new way to build these systems.
	And I'm excited to see what happens.
	Does that not sound exactly like what I just described?
	He doesn't keep up with anything.
	And I love how he says, we're desperately trying to fund this.
	We did this with $30 and some masking tape, bruh.
	Stupid idiots.
	Alright, that was my commercial for Podcasting 2.0.
	No, it was your complaint.
	You were complaining.
	Well, it's kind of a complaint.
	A guy like that should know what the hell's going on, you'd think.
	Well, the worst part is he's gonna try and desperately fund something to create another piece of crap.
	Whereas it's all working just fine.
	No sweat off your balls.
	Thank you.
	Thank you for saying the obvious.
	So, uh, you can join us in those app, uh, in those apps, or if you're just at work and you want to check it out, go to trollroom.io.
	You can become a troll for free.
	Enjoy, or follow us on our Mastodon.
	You'll want to pretty soon because there's not going to be much leniency for anything that's not part of the normative narrative on the Twitter and Facebook.
	We've been playing clips of that all morning and it's desired by the Silicon Valley companies.
	Oh gosh, I need one too.
	I've been drinking squirt.
	Have you ever tasted squirt?
	God, why are you drinking squirt?
	I think Tina's sister bought some when she was staying with us and it was still in the fridge.
	And I look at it and I'm like, what is this stuff?
	Terrible.
	The name by itself.
	Who wants to drink an orange drink called squirt?
	Is it orange?
	I thought it was lemon.
	No, it's orangey.
	Squirt.
	Anyway.
	You know, it's gross.
	It's obscene.
	No caffeine though.
	It's obscene and the name is wrong.
	So you can follow John C. Dvorak at noagendasocial.com, Adam at noagendasocial.com.
	You better get yourself a Mastodon account.
	You can set up your own server.
	It's not that hard.
	You can rent one for five bucks a month and set it up for your family, for your neighborhood, for your school, for your club, whatever you want it to be, for your podcast.
	And then you just federate.
	You follow us and then everything starts to flow.
	It's a beautiful system.
	Big thanks to the artist for episode 1459.
	We titled that one Wig Out!
	And this is, I believe, a new artiste on the scene, Pointy Rhetoric, who had what we thought was by far the best Russian Ronald McDonald's gag for album art.
	With Ronald McDonald with his big mustache in front of the Kremlin.
	Yeah, it was the piece that made us crack up.
	Yeah, what else was there?
	Well, there's a couple of things I want to talk about.
	One was that Roundy got into a discussion with, I guess it was Tant and Neil, and he did this really good art, actual art.
	of the crocodile tears, which was indicative of the hearings just below it.
	You see?
	Yeah, I see it.
	The crocodile crying and using the American flag as a hanky.
	Which I wasn't going to let go away, so I used it on the newsletter, so that would be at least something.
	I mean, it was probably a superior piece on there, but it wasn't funny.
	I got some nasty email about this.
	About the crocodile tears?
	not about the crocodile tears, but about the crocodile tears from the Capitol Police.
	One retired...
	Oh, and you were complaining about...
	Yes.
	One retired law...
	What did you get?
	What was he...
	I'm going to tell you.
	I'm not going to read it because it was 18 paragraphs.
	Retired law enforcement officer was so mad that we said...
	The way he interpreted what we were saying was, oh, what are these pussies crying?
	You know, did they cry 9-11?
	Did they cry after all these?
	And he took it as, you don't know, first responders!
	You don't know, law enforcement officers!
	You don't know what we go through!
	I'm like, yeah.
	He's listening.
	He's hearing what he wants to hear.
	Well, it's unfortunate because the whole point was, we were actually saying quite the opposite, that the true heroes, the true brave first responders, of course, I've seen Marines cry in my arms in Iraq, like they didn't even know what they were doing there.
	The one thing American first responders and cops don't do is, you know, we're heroes.
	We all have that, you know, that action hero in us.
	And so when we're testifying, it's business and we're not full of shit.
	And we, and we, and we keep our, our own version of the stiff upper lip.
	That was my point that these people were crying over.
	It wasn't at an event.
	It wasn't in front of somebody who's dead.
	And it wasn't like an actual 9-11 event.
	That was my point.
	Yeah, and it was a phony baloney event that was exaggerated by the Democrats.
	That guy, whoever wrote that letter, should be ashamed of himself.
	Ah, well, I told him I was astounded that he misunderstood.
	And go talk to the New York Police Department orphans and widows.
	Ask if they know me or if I know some of their pain.
	There's a way.
	Okay.
	So anyway, I got to make this point back to this art.
	So that the art that Roundy says that he thought the Tantaniel piece was a sure winner.
	It was a surefire winner.
	And we looked at it was the one with Trump over the six and it had to do with, you know, this, whatever that movie was from 1999 or whenever.
	Oh, the six cents.
	Six cents.
	Yeah.
	And so I had to tell the two of them, because they're going back and forth, they should get a room on the Amastadon, and I'm saying, look, callbacks to 20-year-old movies, 23-year-old movies, it's never going to work, because it's like most people that listen to this show, or not most, but a lot of people that listen to this show weren't even born when that movie came out, let alone have seen it.
	I have seen the movie.
	I did not recognize this.
	Yeah, it was a reference to the movie.
	No, I understand, but I didn't see it when we were looking at the art.
	Oh, I saw it.
	So that's the kind of stuff we look at.
	We look at everything, but the point is that the thing that we both laughed at, because when you see this stupid Ronald McDonald with a dumb mustache in front of the Kremlin, you know, with a phony logo, it's not McDonald's anymore.
	It's funny.
	So, funny will usually win if it's funny and even moderately well done, so that's a problem.
	But we congratulate artists that actually are artists.
	And Rowdy's a fine artist, which technically he is, even though his style is kind of cartoony, but he's not really a cartoonist.
	I mean, O'Reilly's a cartoonist.
	Well, it was very similar, now that we're talking about it.
	Darren put in a picture of Bowser from Shanana.
	Yes.
	I mean, no, just no, just no.
	Nobody knows Bowser from Shanana anymore.
	That was like David Letterman, 1982.
	That is, yeah, you're right.
	That callback goes, that goes to the 70s or 80s where Shanana was a thing.
	Shanana.
	Yeah.
	Bows.
	Yeah.
	No, these old, you know, callbacks are very effective as humor, but it has to be within recent memory.
	Not, you know, you don't have to go dig through the history books and find you're doing a callback to Ptolemy or something, you know.
	Right.
	To Herodotus, you know.
	Yes, I remember that.
	The Iliad.
	It's hilarious.
	Thank you very much to Pointy Rhetoric for doing that artwork for us.
	Anybody can participate.
	If you're listening right now, live, you refresh noagendaartgenerator.com.
	It's fun, but you can also upload your own and participate in this grand contest of ridicule, which most artists seem to enjoy because, you know, we help you be better artists, I think.
	Well, I think so too.
	Certainly commercial artists who are taking up a gig, who are getting a gig, right?
	I could say this, but most professional artists This is kind of their life anyway, because they're selling stuff.
	Yeah.
	Either the public's bitching at them, or if it's a fine artist, the critics are bitching at them, or if they're a graphic artist, the client is bitching at them about, well, you know, it should be green, not blue.
	And they've all fallen in love with these art tools because they can change the background instantly instead of having to redo the whole piece like they used to have to do years ago.
	But they still get bitched at.
	Thank you again to all of our artists, NoahArtGenerator.com.
	Now it's part of our value for value system where we, who take no commercials, obviously, we, who take no creepy corporate money, we've been waiting for the oil company checks, which apparently some people on Twitter are getting them, but we're not seeing any of that.
	No water from Putin recently either.
	No, we say, is this program of any value to you?
	And if it is, then we'd like you to return that value in the form of time, talent, treasure.
	We definitely need some treasure.
	It has been slow the last couple of weeks, so it's good to see people stepping up.
	We're going to kick it off by thanking our first executive producer, Don Tommaso di Toronto, from Kettleby, Ontario, in Candanavia, sends us a row of ducks, $2,222.22.
	And he says, nothing to see here, move the show along, no jingles, no karma!
	Now that, and it's so funny to see this pyramid of donations, because the closer you get to the bottom, the longer the notes get.
	It's crazy!
	The big numbers, and let's face it, that's a beautiful number, especially the ducks.
	The ducks.
	All these short, short, short, and then it starts to pick.
	It's very interesting.
	There's a correlation here, which I think we could do a science project.
	I don't know what it has to do with.
	Self-esteem?
	I'm not sure.
	I don't know about that.
	Toronto also sent a secondary note that just asks us a couple of personal questions that you should take a look at.
	Oh, I haven't seen this.
	When did he send this?
	It came later.
	Oh, okay.
	I'll send you a copy if you didn't get it.
	Please.
	Sir, and meanwhile, next on the list, believe it or not, Sir Michael Minton, Earl Mittens, of a world distant in Louisville, Kentucky, came in with the same donation of two, two, two, two, two, two.
	That's crazy.
	It's very crazy.
	That does not happen often.
	We rarely get a Rolodex like this and when we get two in the same time and they're not coordinating, which they're not, and then to make it even more interesting, they're both Short notes.
	Listen to this note.
	To the dynamic duo of deconstruction, let's do the dukedom next time.
	Onward!
	Earl Mittens of a world distant.
	That's his note.
	Well, Mike Newman.
	Similar.
	He's from Sebring, Florida.
	$1,000.
	Found you on JRE.
	Now a no agenda listener.
	I'd rather be a knight than a douche.
	So please, de-douche me!
	You've been de-douched.
	Now, I don't see him on the nighting list.
	Is there some reason for this?
	It's clearly, uh, an instant night.
	So I'm not- Well, let's just put him on the list as Sir Michael Newman.
	Okay.
	No idea why you're not on.
	Assumptions were made.
	Kristen Smith comes up next on the list and drops down to 500 bucks.
	Yet.
	She's in Katy, Texas.
	Yet.
	Another short note.
	And she says, no comment needed for the show.
	Just a personal note to you both to thank you for the great content and time and energy you both put into the show.
	Thank you.
	Thank you.
	Thank you, Kristen.
	All right, now we dropped below 500 and you've got this one and now we have a note.
	Yeah, this is Bauke Overbosch from Leeuwarden in the Netherlands.
	So this is a Dutch donation.
	Bauke is a very traditional old-school Dutch name from that region.
	433.35.
	Ah, beste jongens, he says, which is the Dutch version of hi guys.
	The amount of this donation has absolutely no meaning other than me wanting to become a knight.
	And it has a 33 in it, which is always good.
	I was waiting with this donation for a massive boost in the crypto market, but since I saw my pension drop to about 20% from a year ago, that could have taken a while.
	It probably just means I have to work to my 80th now.
	Anyway, because it's our handsome son Leo's birthday this coming Saturday, I decided to do it now.
	Could you please put him on the birthday list?
	He's on.
	After a few years of sustaining donations, I would like to round it up this time to become Sir P.D.
	Artist... P.D.
	Artist... Knight of the Autonomous Frisians!
	For the round table, I would like some... Canina Knotels... Canina Kotels... And a nice bottle of Frisk Hinder Whiskey.
	Canina Kotels.
	This is clearly some food that is from the Frisian kitchen, but the literal translation is rabbit turds, so I'm sure it's something else than actual rabbit turds.
	Can I get an F-cancer for my mother-in-law and a yak karma for all the crypto-loving producers out there?
	Thanks for keeping us sane.
	Love you.
	No homo.
	Bauke Overbosch.
	Well, thank you, Bauke!
	You've got... Karma.
	Sir Eric and Dame Courtney's next, and they're from... Pilesville, Maryland.
	Mm-hmm.
	And at 333-33.
	Please send house-selling karma, yak-flavored, love is lit, Sir Eric and Dame Courtney P.S.
	If Donkey Karma would ever be on an option, our new family members Gabby and Abby, Gabby and Abby, would love, uh, would be much obliged, would be much obliged if you played that.
	Not for, not for tacos.
	Oh, okay.
	That's right.
	Reference.
	Okay, well I can do a combo.
	Alright, not bad.
	That's good.
	Well, tight.
	Anonymous Turk in Lawrence, Kansas.
	333.33, our favorite executive producer donation amount.
	Long time listener after seeing Adam on the Rogan Show a few appearances ago.
	After hearing Adam search for Turkish producers in episode 1459, this is my first donation.
	Please deduce me.
	You've been deduced.
	This is the power of no agendization.
	Now, I am a Turkish producer.
	First, let me say the Turkey-yay pronunciation is bullshit.
	Do you want to refresh our memory on this Turkey-A thing, John, from the last show?
	Well, there was a clip that we played that was a guy, there were NPR clips saying that the United Nations is changing the pronunciation and the name of Turkey to Turkey-A or Turkey-I or Turkey-I or Turkey-E or something.
	And it wasn't my idea.
	I mean, it's the best I can do.
	But they're still pronouncing it Turkey, it seems to me.
	Well, he says Turkey yay is bullcrap.
	Turks call the country Turkaya.
	Turkaya.
	I think that's almost the way the Dutch pronounce it.
	But I've never heard the yay version.
	Second, call it whatever you want.
	It's not like Turks are abiding by what other countries call themselves.
	Example, they refer to Germany as Almanya, not Deutschland, among other examples.
	That's true.
	That's the French version, Almanya.
	John, don't mention the Ottoman Empire.
	Some Turks still believe a delusion that they have any remaining hegemony from that era.
	Anyway, I've rambled on long enough.
	Please hit Walker in the mouth.
	Well, that's kind of your job, Anonymous Turk.
	Appreciate it.
	Jingles and Karma, I'd like ants.
	Uh, yeah, we got some ants.
	Hold on a second.
	Where's the ants?
	Uh, and he also wants Biden whole loads.
	Uh, we got some whole load for you and don't eat me, Joe Biden.
	Oh my goodness.
	Turks want everything here.
	Where's Don't Eat Me?
	Don't Eat Me, Bojiden.
	And Obama, you're- Oh, and R2-D2 Karma.
	Holy crap, man.
	I didn't have all of this lined up.
	Hold on.
	R2-D2 Karma.
	And Obama, you might die.
	Okay, let's see if we can- Whoopsie, we can get all- Oh, where's- Where's the bugs?
	I'm out of control, sorry.
	I got ants.
	I got ants.
	I'm gonna give you a whole load today.
	Don't eat me, Bojyden!
	You're scary!
	So scary!
	You might suck!
	You've got... ...karma.
	A little story.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Viscount Stephan of the Fox River Valley and the Chicago suburbs.
	His name is longer than his note!
	333.33 in his Oswego, Illinois and all he says is, uh, Viscount Stephan of the Fox River Valley and the Chicago suburbs.
	Beautiful.
	Micah Phillips, I believe it is, 333, from Ridgewood.
	Not Micah?
	I don't think so, I think it's Micah.
	Could be Micah, but we're saying Micah.
	From Ridgewood, New York, I've been listening to you since Cranky Geek's Daily Source Code and No Agenda Episode 1!
	I can no longer stand being a douchebag!
	Holy crap, how did you do it all these years?
	Yeah, long-term douchebag.
	Something is wrong with our messaging.
	It doesn't ask for it, but I guess I'll give him this one.
	You've been deduced.
	Please give me goat karma for my value for value podcasting 2.0 show, Extremely Live.
	Check it out at extremely.live.
	I'm currently doing an interview series called Pleb Stories, where I talk to regular people, not influencers, about how they found Bitcoin.
	If a No Agenda producer would like to do the show, hit me up on No Agenda Social.
	He's at Micah at NoAgendaSocial.com or contact me through various means at Extremely Live.
	Well, thank you very much and we're happy to give you some goat karma.

	Probably a member of Michigan Local 1.
	It's been a year since my last donation, and I have yet to thank you for the...
	For the meritorious karma you have delivered.
	Baby-making karma from episode 1341 gave me two nieces, which I could not be more grateful for, and then a hellacious mix of jobs karma in episode 1355 opened up the perfect position for my wife to snatch up And bring more joy to our lives.
	Good.
	I don't know what she's doing there.
	I am walking proof that the karma this show delivers can change and make lives.
	We're changing lives!
	On the five today.
	I don't think you have to read this whole thing.
	They do a segment on, do robots have feelings?
	Okay.
	Uh, I would love one of those yak karmas for my future endeavors, and if Buzzkill is up to it, a harmonica solo, uh, that would make Toots Tileman smile.
	Tilemans!
	Toots Tilemans.
	You know Toots.
	Who's Toots Tilemans?
	Toots Tilemans, one of the most famous harmonica players in the world.
	Toots, he's dead.
	Okay, he's not gonna smile, he's gonna grimace.
	Toots Tilemans.
	Well, if he's dead, he might be smiling.
	Or as many people say, there you go.
	That's it?
	And there you have it.
	Okay.
	Thank you.
	Ready to go on?
	No.
	No.
	You're smart.
	Harma.

	Being sunsetted is a lot less pleasant than it sounds.
	Okay.
	Is that meaning you're retired?
	Forceful retirement?
	Yeah, I think that's what it means.
	You're sunsetted.
	They sunsetted you.
	That's a horrible thing to say.
	Yeah, you've been sunsetted.
	You've been sunsetted, bruh.
	I'm gonna try working for myself.

	Oh, there you go.
	This is my second installment towards my beautiful wife's damehood.
	Please credit this to Tammy Collins.
	Okay, that's a switcheroo then.
	Alright, I'll just make the switcheroo.
	Switcheroo, switcheroo.
	Switcheroo, ladies and gentlemen.
	We have a switcheroo.
	We have a switcheroo on deck.
	Okay, switcheroo complete.
	The first show was 1444, and I forgot to ask you to de-douche her.
	If you could throw that in now, that would be appreciated.
	You've been de-douched.

	Hey!
	So enjoy the price of everything going up as a result.

	These people.
	Just trying to stay afloat, brothers.
	We love all that you do and hope you keep doing it.
	For selfish reasons, of course.

	Thank you very much, sir.
	Joshua McClain in Bryan, Texas.
	It's around the corner from you.
	$200.
	Please give my wife a double dose of recovery karma as she is recovering after delivering our fourth human resource in May.
	Thank you for all you do.
	All right.
	KG5, PDU, 73s.
	73s.
	Kilo 5, Alpha, Charlie, Charlie.
	You've got double up pharma.
	Double up.
	My hubby still listens to your godforsaken show and wants his gifts in the form of donations to you schmucks!
	Please give him whatever $200 gets him!
	God, what a racket!
	anywhere they're accepted, Susan.
	And she says, much to my chagrin, my hubby still listens to your godforsaken show and wants his gifts in the form of donations to you schmucks.
	Please give him whatever $200 gets him.
	God, what a racket.
	Anyway, happy Father's Day, Arthur Saint.
	Wow, that's just beautiful.
	Yeah, he has a supportive wife.
	Alright, we'll give a goat karma for you both.
	You've got... karma.
	I feel a little bad about that.
	She feels like... Yeah, he's gonna be in the doghouse for a few days for demanding a donation to the show.
	You know, Arthur, you can just do it yourself and just bypass the...
	Yeah, but you know, people sometimes really want to receive the gift that keeps on giving and hand it right to the show and for the work we do.
	I don't know, the God what a racket thing, that kind of pissed me off.
	A racket?
	Oh yeah, that's annoying.
	What a racket?
	She's a rude woman.
	Happy Father's Day!
	She's a rude woman.
	She is.
	Hey, she did it, though.
	She did it.
	So, whether she's rude or not, she loves her man, and she did it.
	And we appreciate that.
	And last on the list is Dame, Dame Sand Cat.
	Not a rude woman, she's an paw-rump.
	Nevada, $200.
	And she says the sad puppy got to her.
	Took her a while, but did.
	She wants the jingles, get vaccinated, no, and goat karma.
	Get vaccinated.
	No.
	You've got karma.
	And that is our group of producers and executive producers, associate executive producers for show 1460!
	Yes, thank you all so much.
	And these are official credits.
	This is to Arthur's wife.
	Your husband now will be able to be looked up on, I imagine.
	You're at the Bridge Club.
	Eh, what's Arthur up to?
	Oh, he's just executive producing some stuff.
	He's an associate executive producer on a show.
	Oh, really?
	Mmm, he's moving up in the world.
	Oh, girl!
	Or something like that.
	So, Arthur can now submit this and create an IMDB profile.
	Go ahead, look up... And then say, oh, you know, he has the same... He produced for the same show that the guy Dana Brunetti, who produced Fifty Shades of Grey.
	That'll perk up the women at the meeting.
	Uh-huh.
	You see what I'm saying?
	So, I don't know.
	I thought you might be in good hands.
	Thank you very much for this, and thank you for supporting us, because it's only going to get more difficult from here on out.
	There's no doubt.
	If you'd like to learn more about becoming an executive or associate executive producer, we have a website.
	Go check this out.
	And thank you all for bringing your time, talent, and above all, treasure to episode 1,460.
	Our formula is this.
	We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
	Shut up, Slade!
	Shut up, Slade!
	That little girl was late today.
	She was late.
	So, uh, I was, I was invited to be on the guest on the Hog Story podcast, uh, episode 300, and then they stiffed me and never gave me the invite and they never explained why.
	Yeah, I got, I got stood up.
	Yeah, Blaney and Fletcher, the two of them.
	Well, that's interesting, because they asked me if I could do this.
	Were they trying to get us on at the same time, those rat bastards?
	Did you go on?
	No, because I had to leave right after the show.
	I had an actual conflict.
	This is a show, it's very coarse.
	I think they should get it together and calm themselves down.
	I mean, what happened?
	I don't know.
	I never got a note explaining it.
	So the first they said, would you come on the show?
	And I said, yeah.
	And she said, I can get you a link on this, you know, where you clean feet.
	I said, okay, send me the link.
	And she goes, okay, with an exclamation mark.
	And then that was the last I heard of her.
	So you're sure that it didn't just get tripped up in your email somewhere?
	Yeah, I'm absolutely sure.
	Cause she's white listed.
	Okay.
	I just thought I'd throw that complaint out there for the people out there that do this stuff and think that we're just pawns in their silly games.
	I always love people like, I want to have both you and John on, you know, that'd be great.
	You know, I want to have you with Mo on, I want to have you with Tina on.
	No!
	That's called our show.
	Exactly.
	It's so odd that people don't understand that, no, we're not even fun together outside of the show.
	We're awkward.
	We have nothing to say.
	You're getting maxed out.
	This is all that can be done.
	Exactly.
	A reminder from producer Rick, this is the time of year when graduating medical students start their residencies in hospitals.
	So if you hear of death rate climbing or some other issues, that is very typical for this time of year, as is what we would call the Sommergrippe or the summer flu.
	So whatever is being thrown about, Please keep that in mind.
	And the vaccination hits just keep on coming.
	Well, I've got one.
	Okay.
	I think this is, since the timing is about two minutes even, they did go over a little.
	Do you think this was an ad for Pfizer?
	Could be a Pfizer ad, but this is the BC man who is paralyzed.
	More than a year ago, a BC man became partially paralyzed following his COVID-19 vaccine.
	Now the 40-year-old has become one of the first people in the country to be approved for compensation.
	But others are still waiting.
	CTV's Michelle Bernaro has the story.
	With special braces for his legs.
	I have no muscle or nerve movement or activity below my knees at this point.
	Ross Whiteman is walking again, though with difficulty, and his hands suffering nerve damage have become stronger.
	Both hands, they're, as you can see, they're They're curled in and I don't have a lot of wrist strength.
	That makes obviously doing pretty much everything a challenge.
	The former pilot and realtor developed a rare neurological disorder called Guillain-Barre syndrome after receiving the AstraZeneca vaccine in April of 2021.
	Recent BCCDC data indicates just 10 people in the province have ever been hospitalized with GBS after a COVID vaccine.
	I had full facial paralysis.
	I couldn't smile.
	I couldn't show my teeth or anything like that.
	I'm just going to focus on moving my feet.
	For Whiteman, who was also initially paralyzed from the waist down, physiotherapy became a full-time job as he learned to move again.
	My world got flipped upside down.
	He recently received a letter from the Federal Vaccine Injury Support Program validating his vaccine injury and saying he had been approved for compensation, one of only a handful in the country.
	It's vindicating.
	That's kind of the first thought that came to mind.
	Langley's Sean Muldoon, who developed serious blood clots after the AstraZeneca vaccine, is still waiting for compensation and unable to work.
	Meanwhile, Whiteman said while he's relieved to be getting funding, the real victory will be seeing small improvements in his health.
	I've got a long road to go, but I've got a lot of support.
	And he says he and his family are ready to face whatever challenges are still ahead.
	Michelle Bernaro, CTV News, Vancouver.
	Yeah, I saw this.
	I'm not sure what the message was here.
	If it was a native ad, what's the point?
	I don't know.
	I mean, but they did make sure they said AstraZeneca twice causing blood clots and then this.
	And then when they showed pictures, when they watched it visually, they had pictures of the Moderna vaccine.
	And it was like everything was mentioned but Pfizer.
	It may be some sort of some theory about counter-programming.
	I'm not sure.
	But it was about two minutes long, which is about the right length.
	Maybe it's kind of like The theory that sometimes you have to let a prisoner escape from prison so the rest of the prisoners at least have an idea that it's possible?
	I'm with you.
	I'm not completely sure, but it's high-end.
	If it was a native ad, it's so high-end that we don't even get it.
	The, uh, so what everyone is talking about now is SADS, the Sudden Adult Death Syndrome, which is, of course, completely made up, completely made up, completely made up.
	And so there's, you know, whenever, and I cannot help myself when I hear someone has something horrible happened to them, uh, drop dead, myocarditis, paralysis, Guillain-Barre, shingles.
	My mind is just trained to go, vaccine.
	Uh, this will definitely not happen to everybody, but I think there's a good, probably 3% That is going horribly wrong and it seems like in a lot of the Pfizer documentation, I have a clip about that in a minute, they were aware of this.
	So they have to come up with all these different ways to fill in this sudden adult death syndrome category and there's a new one as scientists have been studying temperature at which humans spontaneously die.
	And this happens in so-called wet bulb conditions.
	Wet bulb?
	I've never heard of this.
	Well, of course not, because it's new.
	Wet bulb conditions are when heat and humidity can cause otherwise healthy humans to overheat and die.
	I mean, does anyone believe this?
	Does anyone not see the obvious?
	And so now, I think there is actually a lot happening around the safety and efficacy of these vaccines.
	So there's a big push.
	The FDA, I think, unanimously approved 6 to 17 year olds.
	Now you're thinking, why 6 to 17 year olds versus 5 to 11, which is what the previous approval was.
	And I believe this is so that it gets on the schedule.
	Once it's on the schedule, it's a lot harder to sue them.
	In fact, why don't I bring out my favorite girl?
	Here she is!
	The newly-unwoke, the Magatard of all Magatards, Naomi Wolf!
	Uh, she is, uh, she's actually working with her company and quite an interesting group of lawyers to sue Pfizer.
	Why is this machine hurtling on and what we can do about it?
	Um, well, Leslie Manoukian, whose team there are a team of lawyers is suing Pfizer on our behalf.
	I'm allowed to announce that now.
	So please, everyone, support us all you can because we have the legal bills coming in now.
	Her argument is that Pfizer and the FDA are racing to roll out the emergency use authorizations to shield Pfizer from liability.
	So if you can fold it in under that EUA, It's harder to sue them.
	And we've also learned that it's hard to sue the FDA in spite of their public comment, which I think is window dressing, because you have to exhaust all kinds of internal remedies before you can sue them.
	So that's why I agree with her strategy.
	We're going after Pfizer first as a private corporation.
	And also, thank God, our lawyers are aligning with 20 attorneys general who have supported them in the past around the mask mandates.
	This may be premature to share, I hope not, but I think this is important because the Attorneys General can bring criminal charges.
	And what the lawyers have found abundantly is that there's civil and criminal causes of action.
	Whoa, whoa, whoa.
	Hang on a sec.
	Don't bury the lead.
	She was the, that's the group, we've had them on the show a bunch of times, they're the ones that went to Florida and had that massive win over, was it Mask?
	Are they now officially on the program and are suing?
	They are representing the Warp Daily Cloud volunteers, and they stepped up to do it, and they're the best legal team in the country for this kind of work, and we're very, very, very lucky.
	We also have all the 250 lawyers, and they filed five attorneys general letters in five states, but there's nothing like having the best team in the world.
	For this issue, the best team in America, I should say, U.S. law is different than any other law that already had this huge win to get masks off of you and your kids when you travel on planes and other federal transportation.
	Yeah, well, I love this.
	Yeah, I can already see that she's got, there's no standing, there's a standing issue, there's no standing to sue, which is always a problem and that happens all the time.
	You just can't randomly sue somebody when you've got nothing to do with it, unless she's been injured or something by a Pfizer vaccine.
	This is dead end.
	Well, it was the same group that sued over the mass mandate and they got that lifted.
	That wasn't a dead end.
	They were very successful.
	I mean... One's Pfizer and the other one's the state of Florida bureaucrats.
	I mean, the competition's a little different for one thing.
	This is going to go nowhere.
	This is my prediction.
	Okay.
	All right.
	Meanwhile, Canada is ramping up with some new terminology.
	Remember, it's 1984 all over again.
	What we also know from Dr. Tan.
	This is the Canadian Health Minister.
	And every other expert on COVID-19 is that although two doses still protects significantly well against severe disease and death, two doses are not enough now to protect against infection and transmission.
	And that is why we are transitioning now to an up-to-date vaccination definition of what it means to be adequately protected against COVID-19.
	So this whole thing from this guy is about we're stopping counting, we're just calling it up to date.
	I think you identified this months ago that this was happening.
	When you talk about what Canadians should do.
	So this whole thing from this guy is about we're stopping counting.
	We're just calling it up to date.
	I think you identified this months ago that this was happening.
	It was happening here, if I recall.
	Up to date.
	Yeah.
	So, up to date.
	So, that's an interesting little change.
	Might as well listen.
	Yeah, up to date.
	This is so silly.
	Since you're up to date?
	Uh, yeah.
	How many shots you get?
	Forty?
	Yeah, you're good to go.
	You're up to date.
	The Prime Minister of Canada was asked a question about how he seems to be very inconsistent with his mask usage.
	Remember, as the saying goes, rules for thee, but not for me, because I am Queen Justin.
	Your government continues to support mask mandates in the House of Commons and in federally regulated places like airports, for example.
	But it appears that you wear a mask inconsistently and depending on different situations.
	The Ontario government is lifting the remaining mask mandates very shortly.
	Do you still believe that a mask mandate should be in place?
	And if so, in what types of situations?
	Now, do you think he'll answer the question?
	And if so, how will he answer the question?
	Well, he's pretty good at beating around the bush and running off and going on with some, you know, just a bunch of bull crap.
	He's good at that.
	So I would guess that's what he's going to do.
	First of all, I understand how tired everyone is of the pandemic, of the different rules and restrictions that we have to go through.
	But most people understand that this pandemic is not over yet.
	We continue to see our hospitals filled with people suffering tremendous consequences.
	We continue to see more spreads.
	We continue to run the risk of new variants.
	And every step of the way, we will continue to be guided by the very best science we can, because our first and primary responsibility is to make sure we're doing everything we can to keep people safe.
	He got answered the question, which wasn't the question asked.
	No, but he answered some questions.
	Somebody must have asked somewhere, somewhere along the line.
	So as the FDA is now also discussing pre six or six month old vaccinations, uh, we have a real problem with measuring the longterm efficacy of these vaccinations.
	And the problem is as follows.
	Tens of thousands of people who volunteered to participate in the Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccine studies are still participating in follow-up research, though that's somewhat hampered because many people who had been given a placebo shot opted to take the vaccine instead.
	The control group is gone.
	They've lost the control group.
	Everybody went, uh, you know, I should probably get one.
	Yeah, after all that propaganda, that's what you do.
	No.
	I don't feel good about this.
	At all.
	The World Health Organization is renaming Monkeypox?
	Yes, yes, yeah.
	Do we have a name yet?
	Because, you know, Monkeypox is racist.
	It is.
	I don't know why it's racist.
	But, yes.
	What should we call it, though?
	They don't give us any cool ideas.
	No, we have to come up with our own ideas.
	Well, what could we do?
	Well, we could come up with some ideas right here on the show.
	Well, that's what I'm thinking.
	So it can't be anything about monkey pox at all.
	In fact, it can't even be called pox.
	So what is another word for pox?
	I think it should be just called boils.
	Okay, now we have to give an identifier to the boils.
	Contagious boils.
	Oh, CBS.
	Contagious boils syndrome.
	Contagious boils syndrome.
	I think we have a winner.
	I'm writing it down.
	CBS.
	Yep, CBS.
	Same thing, same as the network.
	Contagious boils syndrome.
	CBS.
	CBS.
	You got anything else on COVID at the moment?
	No, I only had the one thing.
	Oh, wait, I did want to mention just this one.
	Where is it here?
	Yeah, this is, this is all over the place.
	And I think we played a clip about it, but a study came out.
	It's M5M reporting severe COVID-19 is quote rare in unvaccinated people.
	And of course, you know, this is being blamed on the fact that vaccinated people are not careful because they think that, you know, it's safe and effective.
	Yeah.
	That's the irony.
	If that's actually the reason, then the irony is beyond compare.
	It's almost like saying, I got this great shot.
	I got a booster.
	I got double boosted.
	Let me go out and party.
	I'm going to kiss everyone I see.
	You see Fauci got COVID again?
	Yeah, I love that.
	Somebody else got it again.
	Lots of people get it again.
	Kids are getting it constantly, these guys.
	Or this could just be a summer, a little summer flu.
	No, he would know.
	Yeah.
	All right.
	I got one little intermediary thing to play here, because this guy might be, you know, we lost a lot when we lost Nigel Farage.
	From the scene.
	Spouting out on the floor of the European Parliament.
	And when you say we lost, that means the show.
	Yes, the show.
	We mean the show.
	We lost the winner, yes.
	And so he's gone, but there's another guy that, he's not quite the same because he's not like a pro-American, he's a communist, but he's got some, he's funny and he's, it's called, it's Mick Wallace.
	He's an Irish politician and he's, I've got a little spiel from him, this is a, Minute nine is very short, but he goes off.
	He likes to go off on NATO, and I think it's pretty good to listen to him.
	Then he may be a substitute down the line if we can get more of his clips.
	With Sweden and Finland making moves to join the most aggressive military bloc on earth, it is a sign of how rotten and corrupted the political class in Europe has become.
	We all know exactly what NATO is.
	A post-war mechanism designed to maintain US dominance and control over Western Europe, advance US geostrategic interests, and violently suppress socialism.
	To pursue these aims, NATO has partnered with right-wing terrorists and fascists to conduct long campaigns of bloody terror and destabilisation, both in and outside Western Europe.
	Everywhere it conducts operations, it leaves a trail of destruction and destabilisation behind it, and persists often for decades after the initial lack of aggression.
	As the Pope has recognized, NATO sowed the seeds of conflict in Ukraine.
	Who will pay for its facilitation and the prolonging of the war?
	The US caused the shots, but it's the EU and targeted states that have to deal with the fallout and instability.
	NATO will do nothing for a peaceful Europe.
	It never has and it never will.
	Wow!
	Spattering of applause.
	What I like is he's, you know, it's a minute.
	He delivers his message in a minute.
	That's pretty cool.
	Yeah?
	You know, whenever you get the United Nations type groups or NATO going into a country, what do they always leave behind?
	What do they always bring to a country?
	Cholera.
	Yes, sir!
	Cholera in Mariupol.
	There's a cholera outbreak.
	So, so obvious that that would happen.
	It's like clockwork.
	It really is.
	He was talking about that money and I think I recall you had a clip that broke down some of the 40 billion dollars that we've sent.
	Did you have something about that?
	Not on this show.
	I mean about three or four shows ago.
	Yeah.
	I have a new one that I wanted to play, which really shows you how corrupt, how full of crap this deal is.
	And it also explains why Zelensky is crying that they need more ammo.
	And I think the president is preparing another billion dollar package today.
	Yeah, one more billion.
	Just throw it away.
	One more billion.
	One more billion.
	Just throw it away.
	Yeah, because they're out of bullets.
	Well, it makes sense because pretty much none of the money went to bullets.
	Less than half of that is even available soon.
	Much of that money is going out all the way to 2031.
	Wow.
	Of the 19 billion that will be made available right away, only 4 billion – well, I'm sorry, 4 billion will go to U.S.
	troops in Europe to keep them there, the 10,500 troops we moved over there.
	$9 billion will help the United States military buy new weapons to replace the $3.3 billion of weapons they gave to, it's like they gave a Subaru to the Ukrainians and now they want to buy a Mercedes.
	And $4 billion of it goes to help Ukraine finance new weapons purchases, which won't be available for years to come.
	And $1 billion almost goes to reimburse our allies for stuff that they've already given to Ukraine.
	So almost none of that money has actually made it to the battlefield here yet, and the guys here say they're in desperate need.
	So, $4 million to troops out there already, plus the $9 million that went to buying new stuff.
	The military-industrial complex did about $13-14 billion on this deal.
	And then we paid for the shit the Europeans did?
	Boris Johnson boasting and bragging about the $150 million they spent?
	And it was our money, apparently?
	Unbelievable.
	It's crazy!
	And then taking credit as being the lead guy.
	There was this, someone sent me this, this is a podcast, Ray Peete, the Things Hidden podcast, Things Hidden podcast.
	And they had on this guy, it's very short, a minute.
	Now he's 84 years old, but he's a nutrition researcher, scientist.
	And so when you hear him, he's kind of talking like an 84 year old, which is Joe Biden at 78.
	So he does have a couple of stutters and stuff, but it's short enough that you can bear through it.
	He has some interesting background information on changes that were made in the 2014 putsch, Victoria Newland et al., who went over there and overthrew the government.
	And they changed some other things, such as constitutional law, and this guy explains it.
	It'll take you a second to focus in on how he speaks, but then it should be okay.
	Totally whitewash the origins of the war.
	West's reasons for supporting the Victoria New London, her Maiden revolution, supporting the Victorian New London or Maiden revolution.
	That was to impose a change of constitutional law on Ukraine because they had passed laws to protect
	the small or medium-sized farmers who wanted to produce the traditional crops not genetically modified.
	And the West wanted to destroy those laws to rewrite the Constitution so that Monsanto could write the laws.
	Monsanto Oh, Oof, haven't played that one in ages.
	This makes total sense.
	What?
	Yeah, this makes total sense.
	Monsanto came in, you gotta use our seeds, you gotta use our Roundup, whatever it is, and they rewrote the constitution to tell the farmers what they could do.
	And that makes so much sense because ever since Bayer bought Monsanto, It makes nothing but sense to have a chemical company responsible for your food.
	That sounds like a great idea.
	This is evil.
	This is evil.
	It is, if that clip is even remotely true.
	But this is what's been happening to farmers and ranchers in America for 50 years.
	Yeah, India.
	Did you see the pictures of all the reported 10,000 dead cows in Kansas?
	No.
	Oh, okay.
	It's going viral right now.
	And I asked Texas Slim, who's a, you know, 12th generation rancher of the Beef Initiative, and he says, oh, you know, the story is, well, it was so hot that the cows died!
	Climate change!
	Slim says, look at them.
	They were ready for slaughter.
	They're not healthy.
	They're unhealthy animals.
	So then, yeah, you're just unhealthy.
	You feed them Doritos and Cheetos and cat and crunch and it's, I'm not kidding.
	Yeah, I know.
	In the last, in the last, in the last few weeks to fatten them up and they die from it.
	Beef, American beef is going to be sold like caviar and we're going to get the bugs and the soy.
	Yes.
	Yes.
	Back to Ukraine.
	Let's play the more money clip.
	More money.
	Oh, here we go.
	President Biden today announced another billion dollars in military aid for Ukraine, the allocation being billed as the single largest tranche of weapons and equipment since the war began.
	The effort is intended to help stall Russia's effort to overtake and control the eastern Donbass region.
	The aid reportedly will include anti-ship missile launchers, howitzers, and more rounds for the high-mobility artillery rocket systems the U.S.
	is already providing.
	The U.S.
	will also provide more money for humanitarian assistance.
	Aid was announced in a meeting underway in Brussels.
	More than 45 nations to discuss aid to Ukraine.
	I don't like that.
	No, of course not.
	They're going to start sinking Russian ships.
	That'll do the trick.
	Did you see the latest video of Vladimir Putin?
	Where he's doing this.
	No, you have a.
	I don't have a clip because it would make no sense.
	But... Well, if it was translated... No, the... Yes.
	They're claiming, it's not about what he says, he's shaking.
	His arms are shaking, his legs are unstable, adding to the... to the stories that he has Parkinson's, you know, he apparently carries around a poop case, so that he can poop in the box, so no one can see, you know, can analyze his poop.
	We got stories.
	You're very creative.
	I think it's super duper.
	I like it a lot.
	I like the box.
	Hey, where's my poop box?
	And just one other thing, just for timing, and I'm sure you have some more in Ukraine.
	I got a note.
	That the US military is sending civil affairs soldiers to NATO countries now to prepare for rebuilding Ukraine in 2023.
	So they expect the rebelization to be over by 2023 and the civil affairs soldiers will be in pretty soon to help rebuild it all.
	Well, that makes nothing but sense that we've always believed that this is part of it, Bechtel somehow behind the war, so they can rebuild.
	But this is interesting, it's a little switcheroo on the methodology.
	In the olden days, we would do the rubbalizing, but this time we suckered the Russians into doing the rubbalizing, and they've done a pretty decent job.
	But we've given, you know, we've given the Ukrainians enough weapons that they can do some rubilizing themselves, but we didn't really do any rubilizing at all.
	So this is a step in the right direction.
	Well...
	Rubalize without really doing any rubalizing.
	I don't see how all of this waste and death and destruction can be any type of step in the right direction.
	Step in the right direction.
	Okay.
	John at Dvorak.org.
	Step in the right direction.
	Well, you mentioned climate change, you did warn climate.
	Wait, what about the Ukraine mercenaries?
	Oh, I was going to ask you, do you want me to play the Ukraine mercenaries?
	It's pretty interesting.
	Yes, well, I what I heard is a whole bunch of the dudes were arrested.
	They were all all American soldiers.
	I mean, consultants.
	I mean, was it Academy Z?
	There's a lot of it.
	A lot of it explained in these four clips.
	Yeah, I want to do this.
	The U.S.
	State Department says it is, quote, aware of unconfirmed reports of two U.S.
	citizens captured in Ukraine.
	It would be the first time Americans have been captured by Russian soldiers during this war.
	They are believed to be among the thousands of foreigners who have joined the fight in Ukraine.
	It is risky, dangerous, and the State Department encourages Americans not to travel there.
	Earlier this month, two British men also captured... Shouldn't you say discourages?
	To discourage from traveling there?
	Encouraging to not travel there is weird.
	The structure is dubious, yes.
	Thank you.
	Travel there.
	Earlier this month, two British men, also captured by Russians, were charged as mercenaries and sentenced to death.
	These men all have their own stories, their own reasons for going, and their own experiences once they are in Ukraine.
	That includes a group of Americans and Brits who have formed a unit that is fighting in the East.
	NPR's Ryan Lucas has their story.
	I'm very curious about this story, because what I know, what I've heard, and I believe, is that, you know, this is just our military, and we're paying for them, and we're handing out people to go and train, but, you know, that training goes, hey, watch how I do it!
	That's not really said, that's not expressed in this particular series.
	I didn't expect it to be.
	And this was a report that, I only have four clips, and I did jump a few elements because it was too long.
	It was like 20 minutes.
	Yeah, that's too long.
	And so I only have four clips out of it, but I think you get a kind of a feeling for it.
	There's a lot of these guys, yeah, you know, it's hard to say.
	This could be all propaganda for all I know.
	Hey, you know, this is big money, by the way.
	Vets all the time are getting calls.
	Hey, you want to go to a security detail over here?
	We'll go over to this country, do that country.
	This is an active industry.
	Yeah, you'd think so, but when you listen to these guys, you're not getting paid anything, supposedly.
	I don't know.
	In a video taken late last month in eastern Ukraine, a group of soldiers creeps through the woods and comes to the edge of a clearing.
	A Russian armored vehicle is rumbling about a hundred yards away.
	One of the soldiers kneels.
	He puts an anti-tank weapon to his shoulder and fires.
	The Russian vehicle explodes.
	The men in the video are a small group of Americans and Brits who came to Ukraine to fight the Russian invasion.
	During a recent break in Kiev for some rest, four men from that team agreed to talk to me about their experience.
	Some of them are comfortable using their first names, others spoke on the condition that NPR doesn't disclose their identities.
	We meet on a sunny afternoon in a hip outdoor cafe in Central Quay.
	Where would you like to start?
	That's the group's commander.
	Like most men on their team, he's a military veteran.
	In his case, a 30-year-old former captain in the British Army.
	He's got a shock of short blonde hair and his call sign, he says half-joking, is Princess.
	He says he was relaxing on a beach in the Middle East when the war started.
	And like many people, he didn't think it would last long.
	But after Ukraine held on for a few days, he decided to come help.
	I was shaking, my hands were shaking when I made the decision.
	And that was on, you know, day two or three, day three of the war.
	Yeah.
	I couldn't sit back drinking margaritas on the beach when I knew that I could have some sort of effect.
	Even if it had just been the humanitarian aid or just training the locals, I didn't expect to be doing what I am doing now.
	The other bit at the table, a former Royal Marine commando, followed a similar path.
	After the war started, he quit his job as a security contractor in Iraq and flew back to England.
	He packed a bag, caught a flight to Poland, and then crossed the border into Ukraine.
	New gig.
	In the early days, he says, were chaotic and included a run-in with Ukraine's intelligence service, the SBU.
	We had a few problems.
	I think the SBU kicked that door down a couple of times because we were spies.
	You know, put weapons to our heads and very quickly realized we were their friends and they were sweet after that.
	The Brits at the table are chatty, the Americans less so.
	One of them is a former Navy SEAL who listens closely but doesn't say much.
	The other is a 22 year old from Tampa, Florida.
	His name is Ed.
	Okay, so we're supposed to believe that this group of young men, 20, 30 year olds, that they just feel such pride in in what Ukraine is doing that they decide to go defend, fight against the bad Russki for free, just go over there and hang out and we'll form a little battalion.
	No.
	Wait.
	As you would say, I'm not buying it.
	And you probably shouldn't buy it.
	And the thing that's interesting to me about this is you listen to the report.
	This guy Who's doing the report for NPR does not talk at an NPR pace.
	There's no way he's ever worked for NPR.
	He's talking like he's a fast talker.
	He seems more like a spook.
	And I get the sense that this was produced and from scratch by one of the agencies.
	And delivered as a package?
	Yeah, I think it was delivered as a package.
	Because this guy, and the reason is, is that one, that one little aspect, you know, that they always screw up something.
	And in this case, it's the guy, the reporter himself.
	He's more like Ben Shapiro, a fast talker.
	Not quite fast talker.
	Not quite that, but yeah, he's a fast talker.
	No, no.
	Ben Shapiro is the standard of excellence for fast talkers.
	But he's definitely not the... Here at NPR, we are going to look at this incredible group of commandos in Ukraine.
	Well, even when they go into the field, they send a lot of people into the field to do reports like this, and none of them are like this guy.
	This guy is totally alien to the gestalt of the NPR environment.
	He just doesn't fit in, it seems.
	And the way he's presenting it is a little matter of fact, a little...
	A little too meta, in fact.
	It's got a lot of issues.
	So we skip over now, because I skipped a bunch and we continue with clip three.
	Former Airborne Ranger, 375.
	I got out in October and went to college, got a job, got my dream car.
	Which is?
	Dodge Challenger.
	Anyways, yeah, I had a really good life, you know, GI Bill.
	Got his, got his, okay.
	So he got his dream car from his signing bonus!
	Anyways, yeah, I had a really good life, you know, GI Bill, paying for my school, had an awesome girlfriend I was with for like four years, you know.
	But after the war started, he dropped it all.
	He sold his car, bought a plane ticket, two in fact, he says, because his family cancelled the first one along with his credit cards, and flew to Ukraine.
	And all of them are happy to be here.
	They feel a sense of purpose.
	But the decision to come to Ukraine hasn't sat well with their families back home.
	Here's Princess.
	Huh.
	So, initially, when I said I was coming over here, my mum was, like, holding onto my arm, screaming, crying, you can't go, you can't go.
	I had to persuade her that I was doing a humanitarian aid job, because that's what I was coming to do.
	But once he took up arms... Job!
	Job!
	Job!
	I'm sorry.
	He says it's a humanitarian aid job.
	He didn't say providing humanitarian aid, going to help the people of Ukraine.
	No.
	I'm doing a humanitarian aid job.
	There's your cover right there.
	You can't go out to persuade her that I was doing a humanitarian aid job because that's what I was coming to do.
	But once he took up arms, he says he had to cut contact with her.
	He's in a group chat with other family members who keep her informed, but he says he can't deal directly with her constant worrying.
	It's a similar situation for Ed.
	Yeah, really, it's the same.
	They're completely against it, but... I mean, I don't really care for their opinions.
	Like, there's a million people out here getting killed and stuff.
	I think that's more important.
	And then, for them to be against me leaving, I think that's selfish.
	But, yeah, I haven't spoken to my family since I left, and I really don't care.
	I think what I'm doing here is more important.
	Their motivations to come to Ukraine vary.
	They mention being outraged by the brutality of Russian forces, but this is also an opportunity to use the skills they learned in the military.
	And under the surface, perhaps there's also an attraction to the violence of war.
	These men are among the thousands of foreigners who flock to the country to fight, but unlike Ukrainian soldiers, the foreigners still have a lot of freedom to pick whom they team up with and where they fight.
	Now, at any point did this fast-talking NPR reporter, did he at any point ask, so how are you funding yourself?
	Do you have rent back home that you're paying for?
	Are you sending money back home?
	How are you paying for food?
	Yeah, he did.
	Oh, okay.
	Is it in this next clip?
	It may be in the next clip, which is clip four.
	There may be some mention of it, but I can tell you the rest.
	I listen to the whole thing and I can answer all the questions.
	Well, what are they doing for money?
	They're doing it, they're GoFundMe basically.
	They're spending their own money, they're bringing their own weapons, they're buying their own food.
	They're doing it, it's self-funded.
	So they're not getting paid according to this report.
	I'm just, that's, and you'll see, here's some of that in this last clip.
	Princess says that wariness on the part of the Ukrainians was not without reason.
	When the Legion was created, it got a very bad reputation because all of a sudden you had thousands of morons, Walter Mittys, inexperienced airsofters who thought they knew it all coming in and trying to tell everyone that they're amazing.
	And the Ukrainians saw straight through it.
	The Ukrainian military, though, has issues of its own, these men say.
	The Ukrainians don't really do a lot of planning in their process.
	They're sort of like, oh, here's the thing, go and do that.
	Which generally doesn't work very well.
	The Ukrainians' command and control, they say, is spotty at best.
	And they're beset with basic battlefield communication problems.
	As in, there's often no way for Ukrainian units to talk to each other or coordinate with artillery.
	In one recent operation, in the middle of a firefight, a Ukrainian wanted them to rush forward with him to retrieve his men somewhere in the woods.
	He wanted their help because he had no way to communicate with his own men other than talking to them in person.
	There's so many different units within there, we didn't have any comms with any other unit, and we had the drama of on the way out being fired at by another Ukrainian unit because, you know, the blue on blues that happen out here all the time, basically.
	Blue on blue is military lingo for friendly fire.
	Okay.
	Well, I guess I didn't put that clip in there, but yeah, they claim that they're doing all this on their own dime.
	Hmm.
	So... Well, the... This is a very dubious... I totally agree with you.
	This is a very dubious report.
	But once you started mentioning it, I started realizing this fast-talking reporter, who just doesn't... Yeah, it's not the one that fits in.
	It doesn't fit in with the NPR reports.
	And they have plenty of people in the field doing all kinds of reporting.
	And this guy, in this entire package, which again was long, I mean, I couldn't guide me clipping to be 30 clips to get the whole thing in there, but it's, it's very, it doesn't make any sense.
	The guy got his dream car.
	He had a girlfriend for four years.
	He's a good, happy family out of the military.
	And he's just says, screw it.
	So my car, I'm ditching my girlfriend.
	I'm going here to help these people because they can't help themselves.
	I don't know what the rationale is.
	I thoroughly wholeheartedly believe you have people like Malcolm Nance, the LARPer, um, who do this.
	But saddle up and get ready to go.
	I am seeing reports, just a couple of searches, that the official name is the International Legion of Territorial Defense of Ukraine.
	It appears that there's $3,300 a month in stipend to receive.
	Right.
	That was mentioned.
	It's $3,300 a month, which is a 33, a magic number in the report.
	But the $3,300 a month is what they were going to get.
	If you went through that system, which was this, they called a foreign legion by the one guy we're talking about.
	He says, yeah, I joined the foreign legion, but they didn't know what they were doing.
	And they were just a bunch of idiots.
	And this other guy kind of touched on it.
	There's a bunch of boneheads that came over.
	And so I had to quit that and find a battalion or group to go fight with.
	It's that the whole thing is bogus.
	It's not the Spanish Civil War.
	Russia Today had an interesting story about Babushka Z. Babushka Z!
	She is the new meme in Russia.
	Grandmother with the Soviet flag.
	In Russia, she is known as Babushka Z and has become one of the main symbols of support for the war in Ukraine.
	It all started with this video.
	Back in April, Babushka walks towards two Ukrainian soldiers.
	They offer her some food.
	Then they take the flag off her.
	And stamp on it.
	So the woman, feeling insulted, gives back the food.
	My parents died for that flag, she says.
	For the Kremlin, this was propaganda gold dust.
	A rare example of a Ukrainian who regrets the collapse of the Soviet Union and looks at Russians as liberators.
	Within days, Babushka started to appear everywhere in Russia.
	Murals, drawings, clothes, toys, bumper stickers, poems and songs dedicated to her.
	Russian officials even unveiled a statue of her in Mariupol.
	With color.
	Yeah!
	It's this old woman!
	It's a really iconic little, uh, little old lady there with her, uh, her Soviet Union flag.
	And she's Babushka Z. Z, of course, being the, uh, the Z being the forbidden letter in the alphabet, uh, in many European countries now, especially Germany.
	Can't just post a Z. If you post a Z, then you're carrying water for Putin.
	Babushka Z. What is that all about?
	Well, this Z with a little line through the diagonal, you've seen it.
	You've seen it on trucks.
	It's on the tanks.
	On the tanks, yeah.
	That is the liberation.
	That is the symbol for the Russian liberation of the Nazified Ukraine.
	Which, of course, is Russian disinformation, so we need to forbid that from being used.
	Are we done with Ukraine?
	Because I'm done with Ukraine.
	Yeah, I'm done with Ukraine.
	I just wanted to play a couple of these clips and see what the hell, what kind of bullcrap they're throwing at us.
	I think you nailed it.
	There's no information of any value coming out from the news media on this war.
	We really don't know anything.
	No, they're terrible.
	They're hopeless and useless.
	And there's reason for it, because... I know what the reason is.
	Yeah, to make excuses for hyperinflation.
	No, climate change.
	Well, and that, it's beautiful for everything.
	But that's part of it.
	Climate change, because of high prices, that's the move we have to make, and that's the way out of the inflation, is to switch to solar and wind.
	Did you see this, I mean, I had to laugh when I read it, this Lambda AI that this Google engineer, he posted a quote-unquote conversation he had with this AI and he got fired for presenting it to his bosses as sentient, so it's living, it's human.
	I find this story to be bullcrap from the get-go.
	Of course it is!
	Why would he get fired?
	Because he's clearly an idiot.
	There's a lawsuit waiting to happen.
	You just can't fire someone randomly.
	No, well they didn't fire him.
	They put him on administrative leave with pay.
	So he wasn't fired.
	I'm sorry, he wasn't fired.
	But he posts this thing where he's talking about feelings and, you know, and I showed it to a couple of AI experts.
	And I would say that 30%, a third of the three I spoke to, like, oh, yeah, this is how great it's going to be.
	They're nuts.
	And the other one's like, well, that looks exactly like the training data set that was entered.
	And it's really quite unsophisticated.
	That's probably the correct response.
	Yeah, and all you realize is the only thing that's really different between what this guy's Lambda and like Alexa or Google Home or Siri is it is it is just more conversational.
	They've just added more stuff about feelings.
	This sort of thing is an expert system that's been developed since the 1980s when these things were invented.
	It's bound to get fairly, 40 years, 45 years, or 42 years, it's bound to get better.
	Yeah.
	But to me, this is just as real as the ABBA, you know, projection.
	You know, it's a trick.
	You read this, you're like, oh my God, I can't believe this computer is talking in full sentences.
	I've never seen this before.
	Well, yeah, if you put in all those sentences for it to use, Yeah, and, you know, and I get emails from producers.
	Look at this!
	I'm like, this is bogative.
	Really?
	The guy got, you know, put on administrative leave for, for exposing it.
	It's no, no, no, no, no.
	Exposing it.
	Well, the subject of climate change.
	Oh, actually, let's do the hydrogen report.
	I gotta keep up with this.
	I promise I'm doing hydrogen.
	Yes.
	Okay.
	Hydrogen, as Queen Ursula calls it.
	No, that's Queen Ursula.
	So hydrogen plays a large part in the search for alternative fuels.
	Its waste product is just water.
	At the high-temperature fuel cells plant, researchers like Davide Pumiglia are convinced this combustible gas is the way forward.
	He designs and builds battery cells.
	This machine can produce not only hot water to heat the home, but also electricity.
	This machine is used to heat up fuel cells.
	Its function is to use hydrogen or any other combustible gas to produce electricity and heat in an extremely efficient way.
	For now, Pumiglia says the costs are still too high to produce this kind of energy on a larger scale.
	But newer technologies and wider public use could bring costs down eventually.
	In general terms, if you imagine that to produce a kilowatt of power with these machines costs about 10,000 euros, in order to be perfectly competitive with the current technology to produce power which we are used to, for example the combustion engine, we would have to lower that cost to about 4,000 euros per kilowatt.
	Where was that report from?
	I think it was an NTD.
	The most undynamic voiceover ever.
	Yeah, right up there.
	I've seen it.
	I got a letter from a guy who worked for a fuel cell company.
	Uh, Bill, and he writes, I worked on a product testing and programming and controls on a very cold day in Latham, New York at 10 degrees Fahrenheit.
	I got a call about testing rig.
	Operator could not start the rig.
	The exhaust line pressure was too high.
	I went outside and looked at the exhaust pipes.
	It had an ice ball in it.
	After hearing the producer's H2 car story, I can only picture fuel cell cars with the tailpipes frozen in winter.
	And I was thinking about this.
	These things produce water that goes out the tailpipe and splashes your car behind you.
	Can you imagine driving around in sub-zero weather with one of these things throwing these, because the ice is going to come out as ice, it's going to freeze by the time it hits the car behind you, it's going to freeze in the tailpipe.
	This is another technology, I was thinking about this today, that doesn't work in cold weather.
	Electric cars don't work in sub-zero weather either.
	No, they work very poorly actually, yeah.
	So most of these technologies, and the hydrogen, I didn't think about it until this story, is not going to work in Minnesota.
	No.
	No.
	Or in Texas in the winter, for that reason, for that matter.
	We've had some pretty cold winters recently.
	Yeah, we don't get sub-zero there, do we?
	Remember, we had snowmageddon?
	Oh, yeah, snowmageddon.
	Yeah, the ice cars wouldn't... or the ice cars.
	The fuel cell car would not work in that weather.
	There's the... what's the... is the Miara, I think, is one of these hydrogen cars?
	Yeah, that one from Toyota.
	Yeah, so they're giving, they sell you the car with $15,000 worth of fuel credit.
	Yeah.
	Which I think is necessary.
	It doesn't seem all that cheap, you know, the infrastructure for this hydrogen.
	$70,000, but there's a bunch of discounts.
	You get it down to about $30,000 and, which you can do that with an electric car too, there will be a hydrogen Around the corner from me, I'm looking at, where do you get the hydrogen?
	Well, you have to drive to California, of course.
	That's where you get your hydrogen.
	They're going to have four, not one pump, but four pumps just around the corner from me at a union station.
	They're going to have four hydrogen pumps they're going to install.
	So I can monitor how many people go there and stuff like that because I go by that station.
	Yes, what I'd like you to do is I'd like you to go there, monitor, write down all the license plate numbers.
	And then report back.
	Ask John.
	Ask John.
	He knows what's going on.
	A rare Ask John, but I do have one for you.
	I'm interested if you've heard this report and if not, if you can tell me at the end Well, I'll have the question for you after this clip.
	Do you have any idea what this inanimate object might have been?
	as well.
	They report more than 3,300 illegal crossings over the weekend, as well as 900 known Godaways.
	And listen to this to wrap up.
	They arrested a man from El Salvador, a sex offender who was sentenced to 20 years for forceful penetration of an inanimate object.
	No further details on that one.
	Do you have any idea what this inanimate object might have been?
	Watermelon.
	I'm going to show myself old by donating to no agenda.
	I'm Imagine all the people who could do that.
	Oh yeah, that'd be fab.
	We have a few people to thank for the show.
	1460.
	Or is it 50?
	It's 60 today.

	Anything there?
	Uh, nope.
	He says I complain too much.
	Yes.
	That's part of your charm.
	That's what I do.
	Yeah, it's part of the job.
	I'm paid to complain.
	All right, stop complaining about the complaint email.
	Jeez.
	Sir Grease Monkey of West, the West Texas oil fields in Odessa, Texas.
	144, what was the inanimate object, by the way?
	I don't know.
	It was not meant... I know, that's why I wasn't asking John.
	I had no idea.
	I was hoping you could shed some light.
	I like watermelon.
	The TV show could be a watermelon, but remember the movie American Pie?
	Yes, could be an apple pie, yes.

	$49.99 is popular for that, because we'll never read your note there.
	But we do see them, we do look at the donations ourselves, and sometimes there's little funny notes to us.
	And lots of people are using or taking advantage of the sustaining donations.
	These are highly appreciated.
	They're subscriptions.
	They're lower numbers, but you keep them going and get enough of those.
	We can go forever.
	In 15 years, we've never reached any type of goal that could make us go forever on those, but they are appreciated.
	For more information, go here.
	Not a very long list, only three today.

	Oh, that's... I haven't seen that one in a while.
	Bauk Overboss, come up on the podium here, and Mike Newman.
	Mike, you'll be able to change your knight name later if you want to, but I just want to make sure you got on the list.
	Thank you both very much for your support of the Noah Jindal Show and the amount of $1,000 or more.
	I am honored and very privileged to pronounce the K-V as...
	Sir P.D.
	Artist, Knight of the Autonomous Frisians, and Sir Mike Newman.
	Gentlemen, for both of you, we have hookers and blow, rentboys and chardonnay, can I have the canotals and a nice bottle of fris...whiskey?
	We also have some Polish potato vodka, fish pie and fellatio, brown cheese and aquavit and small aholva, Harvards and Haldol, we got rupenes, rumen and rosé, geishas and sake, vodka and vanilla, barn hits and bourbon, sparkling cider, nesquik, ginger ale and gerbils, and, of course, mutton and mead, served to you by Ben Shapiro.

	You can seal your important documents using that, and the wax that we provide, along with the Certificate of Authenticity.
	Thank you again.
	for supporting the No Agenda show, episode 1460.
	Quick report on two of our meetups.
	The first one, let's see, is from Dane Jennifer Weida.
	who had the Had organized a big meetup and she says it was far too noisy at the Alamo to pass the phone around So I get everyone to write out a note for you And she attached a picture of it my brother Joshua created the sign for the meetup took the new picture for us Transcript of the notes minus the email addresses is as follows It's your first female drunk donator Dame Ellen of the dream realm happy to meet my new Georgia crew Elliot right of the Attila the Hun Fine.
	Hit in the mouth about six months ago.
	Going to need a de-douching soon.
	Thanks to Dame Jennifer of the Gypsy Nation for putting this together.
	Hey Adam and John, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.
	Love you guys from Ben.
	Hey Adam and John, it's Nate Fine.
	Thanks dudes.
	And Dame Jennifer concludes, not a bad turnout for the first meetup in this area, indeed.
	A great time was had by all with lots of great conversation, beer and food.
	And from me, Dame Jennifer Wieda, I say thank you for your courage and look forward to listening to today's show.
	We appreciate that you organized that, Dame Jennifer.
	Now a meetup from the Deutschland, the Munich Deutschland.
	Here's a report from the Munich Deutschland meetup.
	In the morning John and Adam.
	We're sat here at the Olympia beer garden with the sun just going down.
	A couple of spooks in the tree line and we're a little bit disappointed because we're here with a Pole and a Brit and we've recruited a Romanian and yet we have no Germans.
	Yeah, I guess the 9 euro ticket didn't help to get them over here.
	So yeah, I guess we need to get your gorgeous and highly efficient arses in gear and get you down to the next No Gender Social Meetup.
	We'll probably have another crack in the next month or so.
	Love is lit, guys.
	Take it easy.
	No, there you go.
	Deutschland falling down.

	They're completely producer organized.
	We do have a central hub, noagendameetups.com.
	If you want to connect to a community that will only accept you for being exactly who you are, no matter what you are, go to noagendameetups.com.
	If you can't find one, start one.
	Sometimes you wanna go hang out with all the nights and days.
	You wanna be where you want me.
	Triggered or hell to blame.
	You wanna be where everybody feels the same.
	It's like a party.
	Oh.
	Like a party!
	Let's see... I did have two.
	Did you bring any ISOs today for end of show stuff?
	No, I dropped the ball.
	Okay, well, it's a choice between two then.
	We're changing people's lives!
	Or... Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.
	Okay, first of all, you violated your rule that you keep throwing at me.
	Yes.
	We're changing people's lives!
	I violated it again.
	I'm a violator.
	And the other one's better.
	Yeah, I agree.
	I had the same thought.
	I think that one's just better.
	Thank you, thank you, thank you.
	Oh, let me see.
	Do we have, what else?
	Do you have something on your list?
	There must be something we still need to discuss.
	Oh, yeah, we can do a couple of things.
	I do have the election stuff that I like to keep, you know, up with the, uh, the election stuff.
	2020 election.
	Well, let's talk about that for just a second.
	I'm hearing, you know, Mo doesn't believe me either, but I still think there's, there's a There's a 49% chance that they're just going to have to beg Michelle Obama.
	That's a great option.
	Why would you say Mo doesn't believe you either when you don't know my opinion?
	Because I've brought this up to you before and you've said no, that's never going to happen.
	Okay.
	Have you changed your opinion?
	No, that's never going to happen.
	So who else?
	So look, we've identified... The Democrats are in huge trouble for running somebody.
	But John, they are kicking Biden out.
	The New York Times, Don Lemon, clearly the driving force of the Democrat Party.
	Yes, I agree with that.
	Okay.
	But that doesn't mean he won't run again.
	You know, he gets some popular.
	Who knows?
	Because they've been covering it.
	They're going to stop covering for him the way I complain about constantly when I play these clips.
	And then that'll be the end of him.
	But until they stop covering for him, which the media is doing, until that happens, I do not see him not running again.
	But what part of the New York Times and Don Lemon did you miss?
	They are literally stopping covering for him.
	They are asking the hard questions.
	I think the media in general is covering for him.
	We have one editorial, big deal, and we have Don Lemon, you know, midnight sensation.
	Overnight sensation.
	Yeah, overnight sensation.
	Okay.
	And the thing is, and I'll say this again, unless somebody crops up out of the blue, I mean, they don't have anyone, unless they have Cheney become a Democrat, she'd probably run, but they don't have anybody.
	And Harris is too dumb.
	She's not likable.
	She has basic annoyances.
	I think we're beyond that.
	Someone has to have some kind of strategy.
	What would we recommend?
	Because I know I'd be all in.
	I've thought about it.
	Okay.
	I have nobody to recommend.
	I think President Mike is the way to go.
	President Mike?
	Yeah.
	Hello?
	Big Mike?
	Big Mike the black guy?
	It's a bad joke.
	Who?
	Michelle.
	Big Mike.
	Oh, ha!
	Oh, that is a bad joke.
	And now it catches.
	There's a guy named Big Mike that's on Fox a lot.
	No, I know.
	I know.
	Michelle's out.
	She doesn't want to do it.
	They're not going to put up with that.
	They have to find a political, but they haven't got anybody.
	Who in the Democrat party could run for president and be effective?
	I don't know.
	Nobody.
	I just wanted, just a quick follow-up.
	You recall that with some glee we noticed that Boeing was very angry about the Air Force One deal that Trump cut with them because they couldn't do, they couldn't charge for overruns and they were going to lose a billion dollars on the plane.
	A million.
	So here, so what have they done now?
	Oh, we have a problem with the plane and it's Trump's fault.
	And the problem is, He wanted a new paint scheme which moves away from the baby blue to a much darker color blue on the aircraft.
	Yeah, navy blue.
	And Boeing is saying, well, back to the drawing board on that because, you know, that will heat up the hull more and there's some compartments that will need retooling.
	We're going to have to redo some stuff.
	So that wasn't in our official... Who is buying that nonsense?
	Politico.
	They reported on it.
	If they paint the plane black, it won't do that.
	There's planes that are painted black, you know.
	Hold on, hold on.
	It is absolutely a fact that a darker shade, certainly might be a thicker coat, it will heat up the aircraft.
	I mean, paint on an aircraft is not just a simple thing.
	I agree with that, but come on.
	I've seen that paint scheme.
	It's not that different.
	And it's definitely not enough to heat up the plane.
	And how do you account for planes like the Playboy planes that are always painted black?
	Yeah, but they didn't have... This is bullshit.
	This is an excuse to renegotiate the contract.
	Nice try.
	And anyone who buys it, who buys this nonsense... They'll buy it.
	What am I thinking?
	Of course they're gonna buy it!
	Of course they will.
	Of course, you know, the Playboy plane didn't have sensitive equipment.
	You know, that could heat up and fry.
	Yeah, it did.
	Hello?
	Okay.
	Alright.
	Yes, you're right.
	As always.
	Well, we look forward to deconstructing more for you on Sunday.
	I'm gonna go straight to C-SPAN and watch the riveting coverage of the J6, Jan 6, 1 slash 6.
	Make sure we... Is it over now, is it?
	Yeah, it's over.
	Yeah, but I gotta see what's coming, what's new.
	Yeah, of course.
	That's what we do, because you support us, value for value, whatever you get out of this show, good feeling, information, something else that benefited you, turn that into a number, send it back to us, please, value for value.
	Coming up, we have end-of-show mixes from Dee's Laughs and Sir Michael Anthony.
	There you go.
	Coming up next on NoAgendaStream.com, in the troll room, we've got... Oh!
	Episode 14 of Curry and the Keeper.
	Enjoy that.
	Coming to you from the heart of the Texas Hill Country, FEMA Region No.
	6.
	In the morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley where we're rooting for Lynn Chaney, I'm John C. Dvorak.
	We return on Sunday right here with more deconstruction for you on no agenda.
	Remember us at dvorak.org slash NA.
	Until then, adios mofos!
	Why, excuse me!
	This is Dr. Tony Fauci.
	You may have heard that I caught, you know, the thing.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	I did it all.
	I wore a mask, sometimes two.
	Double mask, double moustache, and I'm still sick.
	Everything I forced on all of ya!
	The face diapers, the medical segregation, the gene editing jams!
	All for nothing!
	I can't believe I let a little power give me such a big head!
	Keeping families apart, shutting down small businesses, holding your lives hostage to make money for my friends!
	I'm sorry, America!
	I'm sorry, world!
	I've been a Bit, bit, doctor.
	Luckily, I take vitamin D every day.
	The D stands for don't listen to me.
	I am so, so sorry.
	To make it up to you, free boosters for everyone.
	Safe and effective.
	I love everybody.
	No agenda when you get unfiltered news.
	They don't want you to choose.
	Only a handful of certified views.
	Like McConaughey, dazed and confused.
	A full-time conspiracy therapist trying to make sense of the ruse.
	What's inspiring these week, my dudes?
	Two of my favorite lyricist kings.
	I love it!
	Thank you.
