There's a Hispanic woman who likes an axe when she shoots a Republican.
Gee, babe, so that's a devotional circuit!
Adam Curry.
John C. Devorah.
It's Sunday, June 19, 2022.
This is your award-winning Gitmo Nation Media Assassination Episode 1461.
This is no agenda.
You know what I've noticed?
Increasingly, but this year was really apparent.
This is Hill Country here in FEMA Region number 6.
In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.
And for Northern Silicon Valley, where it's Father's Day.
Happy Father's Day, everybody.
I'm John C. Devorak.
It's Crackpot and Buzzkill.
In the morning.
You know what I've noticed increasingly, but this year was really apparent, and I don't know if you have this, I find myself and many other fathers I know all sending Happy Father's Day texts to each I find myself and many other fathers I know all sending Thank you.
Well, nobody else would do it.
Well, that's kind of the point, isn't it?
There's something about Father's Day where over time, you know, you used to get, uh, maybe even, um, your wife would give you a gift, uh, if it was the mother of your children.
Um, you know, it would, it would be, it would, it seemed like it was a lot more and these days now it's just a bunch of dads texting each other.
Hey bro, thanks.
Happy Father's Day, man.
I mean, I got a GIF this morning.
I love my daughter, but I got a GIF.
You got a what?
A GIF.
I got a GIF.
You know, like a, like I love you dad on Instagram, a GIF of different pictures.
Then and now.
Some work is better than nothing.
No, of course.
It's very cute.
I love it.
And I have to say, one of my stepdaughters also sent me a nice message.
But in general, 15, 20 different messages from different dads.
I think it's a trend.
And we have to because... I'm sending it out to everybody.
Hello!
Hello, happy Father's Day to you.
As you pointed out in the newsletter, we also should say happy Juneteenth.
Same day.
I didn't realize that Juneteenth was made a federal holiday last year by Biden.
Yes, yes, yes, official.
Why?
Well, because Black Lives Matter, bro.
What's wrong with the Emancipation Proclamation?
That's when the freedom of the... That's when the slaves were literally freed, legally.
You're gonna argue this now?
You're telling me we're celebrating a holiday that... This is like celebrating the end of World War II by finding the last Japanese hanging out in a tree 20 years later still thinking the war's going on.
It is kind of that.
Isn't it?
Yes, of course, that's exactly what it is.
So we're not celebrating the actual end of slavery, which would be the Emancipation Proclamation, because why?
Why?
I'll tell you why.
Because Lincoln was a Republican.
That's why.
Oh, that's a good point.
Well, also it was George Floyd and, you know, we had to pick a day and we had to do something.
Well, you could have gone back to the Emancipation Proclamation.
Why dream up this crazy, like, local celebration that's done in Texas as kind of a lark?
This is celebrating stupidity as far as I'm concerned, and I'm sorry that anyone finds that offensive.
No, I don't think anyone finds it offensive.
But these are the dummies that didn't know that the slaves were freed and they were exploiting them.
Now just so you know, we did cover this in depth last year.
Yeah.
Yeah, your clips actually.
I see your clips.
Wait, here's a Juneteenth Biden gaffe.
Let's see what that was.
He's going down to Texas on Juneteenth, right?
The first major massacre, literally speaking, of the Black Wall Street years ago.
He's gonna have a rally.
The gift that keeps on giving.
The dude is, well, should we just talk about him real briefly then?
But by the way, John, happy Father's Day.
Well, happy Father's Day to you, and happy Father's Day to all the listeners out there, fathers or not.
And the ships at sea.
And the boots on the ground.
You're right.
President Biden is indeed the gift that keeps on giving, just gaffe after gaffe.
And what a metaphor for the United States with him falling down from a stationary bike.
What?
I thought it was a real bike.
He was getting off of it.
Oh yeah, he stopped.
He stopped to get off the bike.
As someone who knows a little bit about the cycling sport, as someone who has a worn cycling garb, Uh, such as the modern shoes.
I've only been using these modern shoes for, oh, I don't know, seven years.
Uh, so for seven years, but probably for 17 years, the concept of toe clips has not been around.
I mean, you have shoes now that fit into, that click into your, um, pedals and it's very easy to just, you know, move your foot to the left and you can, or to the right and you can pop it right out.
But the president, for some reason, is using 1990s cycle sport technology of toe clips.
Which was replaced for kind of this very reason.
What, because you get stuck in them?
Yes!
Huh.
Yeah.
Especially when, you know, if you're going to, if you fall, you have no way to get your foot out.
If you fall with the, with the modern shoes and the modern clasp, you could, you can probably, you'll probably be able to get your foot out to break your fall.
More for professional riders, of course.
But I mean, it makes no sense.
Who gave the president this bike?
This is sabotage!
This is sabotage!
Trying to screw him up?
Yes, it's sabotage!
This is my theory, I'm sticking with it.
Sabotage!
Let's make him say autocracy one more time and see what happens.
And now he said, now what was great is when this happened, you know, reporters are yelling questions at him and he's obviously annoyed, he's clearly discombobulated.
But there was a question in here about, was it China tariffs?
Listen to his answer, especially the second time he answers the question.
Have you made up your mind on China tariffs, sir?
We're in the process of doing that.
You're lifting the tariffs?
We're in the process of making up my mind.
What?
We're in the process of making up my mind.
Look, I know it's a mistake, it's a gaffe, but you can't overlook these things.
No, it's consistent.
I mean, it's not as though just once a year we get something hilarious.
But this is so good.
We're in the process of making up my mind.
Okay.
That's probably true.
We are in the process.
Yes, it's probably true.
I don't think he's speaking in the royal we.
Yes, the Joe Biden is in the process of making up his mind.
My mind, whatever.
No, no, this is... The Democrats have always taught us when someone tells you who he is, you should believe it.
He's probably telling the truth.
He's the royal we, or he's being controlled by some other panel.
Or he's got a mouse in his pocket.
And this was my favorite.
He was addressing an audience and noticed the CEO of Joanne Inc.
and had a story about it.
Of course, you know, you always have to, as a politician, you always want to say, hey, there's Pete over there.
Thanks for doing that thing, Pete.
That's what you do.
It's like you call people out.
Yeah, in the 1950s.
Obama did it.
Trump did it.
All these guys do it.
But when you do it this way, it's kind of weird.
And by the way, my sympathies to the family of your CFO, who dropped dead very unexpectedly.
My best to their family.
It's tough stuff.
Tough stuff, man.
Dropped dead.
Fucker just face-planted himself.
Yeah, that's the clip of the week.
He dropped dead.
Dropped dead.
Right?
It's just, you know, I didn't put any Biden clips together this week because I'm going to do them only once a week.
Well, no, this is all we need.
This is all we need.
It's fine.
But those are, you know, that nails them.
You got it.
You got it.
Although none of this was as good as I'm stammering today for some reason.
None of this was as good as the Juneteenth explanation that I'd actually like to hear as a reprise.
Uh, do you have, did you select it?
No, you just played it.
Oh, oh, you mean the- He's going down to Texas on Juneteenth, right?
The first major massacre, literally speaking, of the, uh, Black Wall Street, right?
Years ago.
And he's gonna have a rally.
I like the first major massacre.
That was even a better part.
First major massacre?
Major massacre.
And he's the guy who made this a federal holiday.
Yeah, it's the best.
It's the best.
Wait, what do I have here?
What is this?
Kamala Harris and Joy Reid are the worst kind of black people.
This is a clip most hit me first time because though they wear the same uniform as you, they are not on the same team as you.
And the reason that they are so easily co-opted is because their family lineage is not rooted in the plantations of American slavery.
Kamala Harris is a biracial woman.
That was at least in the June, the June 19th hustle, but it's too long to say this, but this, yeah, this, this thing was, it was, it was a George Floyd thing.
That's why it had... Why don't they call it George Floyd Day?
Thing.
Just George Floyd Thing.
The George Floyd Thing.
Why don't they do that instead of this?
Juneteenth.
That's right.
It's GFT, everybody.
No, I think that's, you know, they were just looking for... I mean, it was only a year ago, but we remember what was going down.
Oh, we need a day.
Shut everybody up.
And now it's ridiculed.
It's ridiculed!
And it's on Father's Day!
Which is not lost... Yeah, I think that was, that's like, they kicked their dads to the side and put this thing in.
Well, I was bitching about this at the table with basically the same spiel.
And my daughter says, it's a day off.
What are you complaining about?
Well, it's not a day off for me, but it's a day off for her, so... It's Sunday.
No, tomorrow's a federal holiday.
Oh, but today is Juneteenth and tomorrow is the federal holiday.
Yeah.
So that's literally how she approaches it.
Does she care?
Does she not care about George Floyd?
It's a day off.
Does she not care about George Floyd?
No, she thinks like everybody else, I'm guessing.
Hey, it's a day off and it's an additional day off.
This is great.
All right.
Well, I think maybe it's time.
We don't think that way because we work through holidays.
I think maybe it's time.
Spread avocado, want some toast, cause it's the time that John loves most.
The Millennial Minute.
We got a couple of jingles for the Millennial Minute.
Here's another.
Reporting live from Gitmo Nation, this is the Millennial Minute.
I think this was a fine example of your Millennial Minute.
It's a holiday!
It's a holiday.
What are you complaining about?
Can we do this for a second?
Because I got a lot of feedback.
Did you get feedback on the Millennial Minute?
Yeah, I did.
I did.
I did.
I got a lot of feedback too.
There's a couple we wanted to read here.
And the one I thought was pretty good that came...
The premise of this is, as you set it up, it appears that a group of Millennials, could be a large one, could be a small one, we don't know, we're just researching.
is convinced of certain legalities that are A, not true, and B, using a trendy term, nonsensical.
And one of those is, now you had two of them, one is taking pictures in public, in this case it was of kids in a Halloween parade, and that's illegal.
Right?
It's illegal.
And what was the other one?
Oh, the other one was telling someone about your salary.
That is also against the law.
It's illegal.
No, it's not against the law to tell someone.
It's against the law to ask.
Sorry, to ask.
Yes, that's illegal.
Now, I have a couple more examples.
But first, this is our millennial paralegal.
Millennials do not understand the law.
Good note.
Yes.
I've got this too.
I'll read it.
I'll read it.
As a millennial who studies the law, I want to reach out and say that you two are analyzing something I think is vital for everyone to understand.
Millennials do not understand the law.
My entire legal education has been filled with moments of reflecting on just how little I knew about the law.
Before I started this course of study, I didn't understand civil versus criminal, district versus appeals court, state versus federal laws, jurisdiction, et cetera.
I didn't even know law libraries existed until I studied law during my undergrad.
I could write War and Peace— By the way, most people don't know law libraries exist.
Oh, okay.
Well, I did, but I guess I'm special.
You've always been thought of as special.
On the short bus.
I could write War and Peace on this so I'll just leave it with this.
Most of my fellow Millennials seem to barely understand basic elements of the law or how to even verify what law is.
For example, Millennials often say collecting rainwater is illegal in their state, despite of course it being allowed and even recommended in many states.
I think I've heard this too.
about rainwater collection. - Well, I can kind of take that other side on this because I believe it was a big deal in some of the networks about 10 years ago.
I started by Colorado or somebody because there was a thesis that was floated around by some environmentalists that if you start collecting rainwater, it would change the flow into the lakes and rivers.
And they were proposing to make it illegal, I think, in a couple of states.
Okay, but were the millennials even alive when that took place?
No, but these things get into the public domain and they start floating around next thing you know, everyone thinks it's illegal.
Finish that up.
It seems to me as a millennial with a legal background that a lack of legal education for the general public is resulting in an entire generation feeling oppressed by laws they perceive to be true or lacking the foundational knowledge to even confirm it for themselves.
I don't know if that's what's going on.
And by the way, there's a couple more that came in.
Filming in public in general?
Filming in public is always deemed as illegal, and my favorite is, for this Millennial Minute, is driving barefoot.
That's illegal, man.
That's interesting.
I think I've heard this too.
I think my mom said that when I was a kid, or she had flip-flops on or something.
She said, no, that's illegal.
Because, you know, I could slip off the pedal.
Slip off the pedal.
Slip off the pedal.
It's illegal to drive around with headsets on.
Yes, I think yes.
But you probably wouldn't hear them say that.
And they're all sitting with earbuds in their ears.
Now, would you?
Now, there you go.
Wow.
How about that?
Wow.
Oh, wow.
Wow.
That's just the opposite of the... Something's wrong here.
Of what's illegal and what's not.
They think it's legal to drive around with earbuds or headphones on.
Bad millennials.
That is literally illegal.
Illegal, yeah.
In I think almost every state.
And I would also say that every millennial knows not only the legality or the dangers of texting while driving, but... They do it constantly.
They do it constantly.
And by the way, the reason for the... because the Millennials say, well, why is that illegal?
I can listen to music.
I can listen to music on the radio.
It's because when you get the headphones on, you can't hear sirens.
Yeah, that's the idea.
That's the main reason.
Now, we're not picking on Millennials.
We're picking on some Millennials.
And we're not even picking on them.
Who wants to listen to our show?
Who wants to listen to our show down to earth?
Well, they didn't get some kind of programming, and as you said, this has to come from the education system.
It has to be a lack of civics or a focus on other things, such as, you know, in the UK now, and this will be conflated here, because we're already well on our way, and this is about legality of speech and of things you can say.
The UK online safety bill Has a section in it, 127.
This is a guy named Toby Young, he's on that GBN, that kind of, that new, wasn't it owned by Discovery?
That new news network in the UK.
Anyway, it doesn't matter, listen to this.
Buried in the online safety bill is a new harmful communications offence.
And that is going to replace various existing communications offenses like I think section 127.
It tries to identify those things you shouldn't be able to say not by using terms like grossly offensive which as you say are very nebulous and open-ended.
They try and identify them according to the effect they have on the person they're sent to or who overhears them.
So under the new harmful communications offense Buried in the online safety bill.
If you say something which is going to cause someone extreme psychological distress, and you intended it to do so, and you don't have a kind of reasonable reason for doing so, like you're not participating in a political debate, if it's a gratuitous Something you said, it's gratuitous, it was designed to cause psychological distress, and it causes extreme psychological distress, then you can go to jail for two years.
Nadine Doris argues that this law, whilst it does restrict some speech, and whilst it could be, she doesn't acknowledge this, but we've pointed out, this could be abused in the courts because lots of people Yes!
will claim that, you know, a gender-critical feminist misgendering them on Twitter has caused them extreme psychological distress, and the person doing it knew it would, and they should go to jail for two years.
And you can see this could be used as a kind of Trojan horse for kind of smuggling subjective definitions of harm, psychological harm, into the criminal justice system in a kind of, you know, sinister way.
Yes.
So, you know, when this news...
Is that what a comedian does, by the way?
It's exactly what a comedian does.
Dave LaPelle.
Dave Chappelle.
Where'd that come from?
Dave Chappelle could get in real big trouble if he does a stand-up in the UK and he posts something online.
And it doesn't have to be misgendering.
It could also be, well, for instance, if you said, wow, that's a dude.
You know, about our... Which is something you could say.
You know, regarding our... What is it?
Rachel's... What is Rachel?
She's the Admiral.
Rachel Maddow?
Levine.
Oh, God.
Well, there you go.
You just misgendered Rachel.
Right there.
And you did it online, you did it in a podcast, so you could go to jail for two years.
And you did it because, you know, it's no secret.
Cheap joke.
That's the reason I did it.
A cheap gag.
And what about deadnaming somebody?
That's got to really put somebody into a tailspin.
How about this?
Lizzo is obese.
Now that could send me to jail.
Because you're not allowed to body shame.
It could send her into, and I'm sure just saying this sent some people listening to the sound of my voice into a triggered spiral.
Yeah.
You know, but this is what people, people pick this up.
And you know, whether it's, if it's illegal in the UK, surely it must be illegal in America.
See how this works.
Well, that would, yes, that's exactly how it works, as in terms of the bullshit of it.
Because it's not illegal in America.
It could be illegal in the UK, though, and it could be, now you've got to deal with what happens to, if you remember in the early days of blogging, a lot of blogs were kicked out of Germany because they wouldn't show a swastika or something along those lines.
Swastika?
I've never heard it pronounced like that.
Swastika.
Swastika.
It's like a drink.
It used to be a drink.
I'll have a swastika with ice, please.
I'll have a swastika.
It was never a drink.
Stop.
Stop.
Wow.
Did you sample the edibles on the way in?
It's wow day, everybody.
Did you sample the edibles on the way in today?
Good.
No, I should have.
So these blogs got banned from Germany, and I guess it was an indictable offense.
So if you actually went to Germany, you were the blogger.
I think somebody, I believe a couple of bloggers were arrested.
Did someone get arrested?
Yeah, I think so.
That's possible.
Yeah, just by showing up in the country.
I don't know what happened to them.
They probably just got a big fine.
It could ban a bunch of podcasts, because most podcasts are offensive.
To be honest about it, I listen to them, trying to catch some of the stuff.
Of course they're offensive!
What's wrong with these podcasts?
Yeah, it's beautiful.
Offensive podcasts are fantastic.
No, most podcasts are offensive.
The guys can't stop cussing.
They expand their vocabulary a little bit.
Well, that's the Howard Stern sickness.
Is it?
You blame Howard Stern for this?
Uh, no, I just named it the Howard Stern sickness, because when he went to Sirius, the first three years, all they did was drop F-bombs and just say things that they could never say on broadcast radio.
Just because you can, you might as well.
Yeah, let's do it!
Hey, we're free!
No, it didn't make it cool, though.
It was not good.
It's gross.
Anyway, we continue to research.
We'd love to know more things about in the millennial minute, which our current trend is understanding Uh, understanding what things millennials, a group of millennials, believe that are illegal.
And I'm sure there'll be other topics in the Millennial Minute.
Spread avocado, want some toast, because it's the time that John loves most.
The Millennial Minute.
Actually, I did want to mention something for the Millennials.
You know, with inflation rising and the free money train over because the interest rates are no longer at zero for companies to borrow money and invest it.
Silicon Valley... Cheaply, yeah.
I'm sorry?
Cheaply.
Cheaply, yes.
Silicon Valley is immediately, if we just read around the trades a little bit, immediately they're clamping down.
There's firms that are implementing hiring freezes.
I think we might even see some layoffs here and there.
And the main reason for this is there's so many products and services that really, I think, service the millennial generation of today.
Although, you know, Xers and boomers take advantage of them as well.
But it's created and used primarily for the current generation.
These are all products that have been subsidized by investors.
Yes, 10 years of very, very cheap money.
The old adage is, I remember, the phrase used to be in the olden days of Bally, they would say, oh yeah, they're shipping a $10 bill with every hard disk they sell.
Uh, which literally means they're losing a $10.
You're getting $10 worth of value when you pay whatever you're paying because they're losing money on each hard disk.
Exactly.
Or whatever product it is.
And that's what's been going on.
That's very trend.
That's been a trend.
For decades.
Yes, for decades.
All the stuff that you're getting.
Oh, this is great.
I get a free, you know, system here and I get this, that, the other thing.
And it's because some investors are paying for the long haul.
Well, the whole... What am I saying?
They're throwing money away.
Okay.
Since you can't really make...
Excuse me.
It's very hard to make, you know, long-term money on, well, it's getting better now, but, you know, on traditional investment vehicles, it makes a lot of sense to pump a crapload of money into, you know, into a venture capital fund so that, you know, they disperse it and of the 50 things they fund, there's hopefully an Amazon or a Google or something big that pops out.
And it's really called gaining market share, you know, it's, yeah, I mean, that's really what it's about, is buying customers and keeping them until, you know, either we can raise the rates, look at Netflix, who now are, and I think they're the... They're still losing money, by the way.
Yes!
Well, they're the canary in the coal mine.
And they right away went, okay, shit is slowing down, we can't even buy more people, so we bought everybody with the cheap money.
I mean, that's what the reality is.
Is it slowed down?
Whether that means people are going to other streaming services, but this will happen to others as well.
And now they're like, oh, we better do some advertising.
So that's exactly the convenience and the beauty of Netflix, that you like this, that it didn't have all that interruptive advertising, the interruptive advertising model.
I know they understand it, but they don't get it.
And some of these other streaming services, like the one that's genius is Amazon's Prime, because it's not really, that's not the main thing they're selling.
They're selling their shipping and Prime services.
And they just bundle it in.
And you still pay for things sporadically that aren't in your Prime package.
There's a lot on there.
And that may change.
But listen, how about Uber?
You think Uber is going to remain the same price?
I mean, and that's not even related to the gasoline prices.
Uber has been losing money.
They've never made profit.
How about DoorDash?
Uh, you think Casper Mattress is gonna be around?
No.
Blue Apron.
You're gonna have to learn how to go and shop again.
Did Blue Apron ever- We saw this in the late 90s with, uh- Wait, wait, I have one more.
I have one more.
My favorite.
Spotify.
Do you think that the Swedes will be able to continuously pump hundreds of millions of dollars into a money-losing proposition which only has some glimmer of, well, we're going to do billions of dollars on podcasting?
None of that has materialized.
They have no way to make actual profit except for scamming on the music side.
So, Spotify, these things will go away.
Now, that's what I've seen in my life.
Play the Curry Pet Peeve thing, please.
Play it.
Play it.
I don't even know where I have it.
Yeah, I have it here.
I don't see Curry's Pet Peeve of the day.
I wanted you to give some historical examples of this.
Uh, what, Spotify?
No, no, you were saying that things have gone away, and I actually interrupted you.
Oh, no, Webvan's a good example.
Webvan, oh my goodness.
That was the original delivery system, and it was like, it, it, and it was a monopoly, I should bet.
Well, there's Peapod, that was the other one.
Peapod, another good one.
Peapod was up there, but there was Peapod and Webvan, but it wasn't like a million of them like there are today.
And they couldn't handle it.
It was just, it was a loser.
And they were hiring people left and right to drive those little Webvans around, just pretty much like the Amazon truck, about the same size.
And then there was pets.com.
Yeah, but no one really depended on those, the way people depend on these services.
I mean, DoorDash would be uber, uber easy.
Webvan, people were depending on it.
I mean, the same millennial types were 99, I mean, the same types.
And should I tell you something else?
You know what else is going to end?
I guarantee you.
They're going to start putting limits, if they don't already exist, on the leeches in coffee shops, in Starbucks.
They're going to say, hey, moving on out, people.
You're just sitting here taking up our space.
Or they're going to start charging for it.
Well, it depends, because they do provide a shill effect.
Which is comforting.
A shill effect?
What do you mean, a shill effect?
A shill effect.
Casinos, for example, will hire people to be in the casino, making it look like the place is more busy than it really is, and so you'll feel more comfortable going in there.
Cause nobody likes to go into an empty building.
Nobody likes to go into a dead empty coffee shop.
You go, who's, I'm not going in here.
This place is dead empty.
This is why you have lines around the discos.
You know, you want to create the situation.
The clubs, the clubs, John.
Whatever.
But the point is, is that there's lines out in front and that means it must be popular, must be busy.
You want to get in that line.
People get in line.
Oh, there's a line.
It's the velvet rope.
So the shill, it's a shill effect.
And so you, I'm not so sure that, that, I mean, I think you're right about the, the, the sponging aspect of it, but at the same time, it may be necessary to keep those places look to, to look like they're busy.
Maybe necessary.
Yeah, but you still, at the end of the day, you've got to make some money.
I mean, I see, all I see is evidence of, you know, the incubators, the Y Combinators, the venture capital, you know, funded companies all going like, danger, danger, all right, everybody.
It's like two old farts.
Well, we are two old four farts, and we're allowed to talk.
Oh, now as a kid, you had to pay to get into the place.
You didn't give it away like they do today.
Listen, us girls will work for free!
I'm here to help you, you're here to help me.
So when you say the discos, you know, I'm going to subtly correct you by saying, no, no, no, that's the clubs.
Yeah.
But you can learn a lot by looking at history.
And if there's anything that most people will agree on, we don't remember Jack anymore.
We don't remember two weeks ago.
Nobody remembers Peapod and that's like what?
There you go.
No one remembers Peapod.
It was 30 years ago, but still.
Yeah.
No, nobody remembers anything in this big uphill battle.
And the reason that, let's getting back to the main thesis, which is why the millennials don't know these things that they should know, is because they can only, there's only so many hours in the day, there's only so much school that they can get.
And so the information that they really need to know has been kicked to the curb so they can learn about gender studies.
Yes.
You're correct.
And I think civics is probably all about gender studies as well.
It doesn't seem- Gender studies.
When mature, you know, when adults don't understand civil versus federal, you know, all these types of basic issues- Civil versus criminal.
Criminal.
You see, I don't even know.
That's what you were trying to say.
Well, here's something else.
I've been looking at this rank voting.
Yes.
And a lot of people are, you know, sending me this, and I would say in the No Agenda Nation audience, there's probably a 60-40 split.
People think, maybe even more, people think it's a great idea.
To me, there's a fallacy in this because, and this, you'll see this transition, even if you had this, and I'm talking about the general election, but if you had this This rank voting at the general election, it shouldn't matter because the people don't actually vote for the can- don't actually, you know, their vote is not what counts.
It's the Electoral College.
And somehow it just dawned on me that this rank voting that seems to be very popular is some way subversive to the Electoral College.
Like, this is a better way, we can get rid of this thing.
That's a dumb way to do it.
Well, ranked voting is generally used more by the states and the municipalities.
I know, I know, I know.
And people can do whatever they want.
I don't think it's ever even been introduced to the idea.
Oh, put that in the Red Book.
You watch.
You have to question everything.
Every single meme or little slogan.
You gotta question it all.
It's kind of more like a parliamentary system, ranked voting.
Yeah, well there's a whole pool we can choose from.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I'm a traditionalist.
You're in the mood.
I'm not in the mood.
I'm a traditionalist.
That's all I am.
Alright, let's talk about monkey parks.
You know, of all the things I expected you to say.
Okay, let's talk about them.
Let's talk about monkeypox.
I haven't asked Adam.
Oh, goodness.
I mean, this... That's the reason I wanted to transition.
I mean, who's in a mood today?
Okay.
All right, I'm ready.
Here's the monkey pox.
A small monkey pox clip is discussing, just as a background, how the problem with monkey pox, which has been renamed, I'm sure you heard the name.
I didn't hear the name.
I know it was going to be renamed.
Oh, really?
No, I knew it was being renamed, but I haven't actually seen the new name.
I'm excited to learn the new name of monkey pox, which as we do know, is a racist.
It's racist.
Racist.
Because only racists connect monkeys to, I don't know, black people?
Is that why it's racist?
Why else could it be racist?
Other than some sick mind who makes that connection.
Which are the people who want to change the name.
They're sick.
Alright, well let's go to... I had the clip on here that actually revealed the name.
I tried to... It's actually on here.
I'll just tell you what it is.
Okay.
M-P-X.
M-P-X.
Okay.
Wow.
So, monkeypox has been re- I know.
I'll create it.
So let's play, uh, but the problem with the monkeypox is not so much that it's association with Africa and monkeys and, and, and somehow, somehow black people because of the old, uh, monkey thing that goes back for God knows how long, uh, is over and dead, but okay.
Uh, it's the gay thing.
Ha ha ha!
Hey, alright!
So they're very upset about the fact, and I'm going to skip the ask Adam for now, we're going to get to that in a second.
Let's go to Monkeypox gay messaging.
And the problem is, is that it's being associated with gay so much that now it seems that if you have Monkeypox, by the way, they renamed it MPX.
Nobody's using the name.
They're still saying Monkeypox.
Of course not.
I didn't even, I mean, the messaging sucks because I didn't even know about it.
And I'm supposed to know this stuff.
Yeah, I'm surprised you didn't.
But it, but so they can't, they can't really bring themselves to saying MPX because then you get the guys electronic.
Hey, does that mean multiplex?
What was MPX?
I know.
I just tried to register any version of mpx.com.org.app.
I mean, that's, you can't even get a domain name for this name.
It's so dumb.
Well, it also means other things if you go to the acronym list.
But okay.
So let's play this thing about, here's the gay issues.
Gay men and bisexual men.
It is now believed some of the monkey pox cases can be traced back to gay events and saunas in Europe.
But health officials stress anyone can get the disease.
So they found that there's this big event in Europe that Monkeypuck stems from, some big gay party.
Yeah, in Germany.
And the first thing I'm thinking, and this is in Germany, I'm thinking, did they have a monkey at this party?
What were they doing with this monkey?
Well, here's the thing that I, I'm going to check with some of my gay brothers.
I have a feeling the whole sauna thing is not necessarily where the boning takes place anymore.
If anything, connecting gays to saunas is... I mean, that's almost stigmatizing.
You mean gay bathhouses?
The report said saunas.
Okay.
And if you say a gay bathhouse, yes, it's obvious what you go to do there.
But a sauna?
No, a sauna is just... I don't think that's a thing even in Europe.
But okay.
You know where they go to have sex?
To the discos.
That's where they go.
The discos?
There you go.
So let's go to Monkeypox.
This is the Monkeypox Who report.
The World Health Organization is convening its emergency committee next week to decide whether the monkeypox outbreak is a public health emergency of international concern.
That's the world's highest health alert.
The only two viruses that currently have that designation are COVID and polio.
I studied this stuff and I had a nightmare the other night that I had it and in the nightmare I couldn't like I didn't know where to go.
Steven Thrasher writes about inequality in healthcare.
He worries that the public health system could be doing more to prevent the spread of monkeypox.
And it's really unfortunate because where I live in Chicago, and throughout the coronavirus pandemic, I got notices about what the rate was, whether or not to use masks, where to get a vaccine, when I was eligible for a vaccine, when to get a booster, all of that just went straight to my phone.
Nothing like that is happening right now.
Wait a minute.
They were Direct marketing the gays?
That's what it seems like.
Like we have your status?
Enhance, rotate, zoom in.
Aha, gay.
Send him a text message.
He needs to get the vaccine for the MPX.
Wow.
That's what it sounds like.
Yep.
As for who?
The who, I gotta say.
The who, yeah you go, I'm gonna play it.
There also needs to be resources in place for testing and vaccinations.
We have to be prepared to support people as they need when they're diagnosed.
But he says there's another part, a more difficult and complex problem.
The public and private perceptions that come from focusing prevention messaging on men who have sex with other men.
Part of it is not a quick fix, and I won't pretend like I have a quick fix answer for it.
It's to make a society that doesn't have homophobia, because as long as there is a homophobic society and people are afraid of what it means to come forward that this thing will make people think that they're gay, then they're not going to want to come forward.
Wait a minute.
Did he say that if you get monkey pox, then you're going to think you're gay?
No.
Wow.
No.
That's not what he said.
Now that you mentioned it, that's what he said.
Hold on.
Let me hear that again.
There also needs to be resources in place for testing and vaccinations.
We have to be prepared to support people as they need when they're diagnosed.
Okay.
But he says there's another part, a more difficult and complex problem.
Here we go.
The public and private perceptions that come from focusing prevention messaging on men who have sex with other men.
Part of it is not a quick fix, and I won't pretend like I have a quick fix answer for it.
It's to make a society that doesn't have homophobia, because as long as there is a homophobic society and people are afraid of what it means to come forward, that this thing will make people think that they're gay, then they're not going to want to come forward.
I'm telling you, that's what he's saying!
No, no, I listened to the structure.
No, the structure of the sentence was just poor.
No kidding!
And it could be, it was one of those things that was so, there's a term for that kind of writing, and it was, it was vague, and it was, it was the, yeah.
You could, what you said, that could be one way of looking at that sentence, what he said.
If you get the monkey punch and all of a sudden you're going to start thinking you are gay.
You know what he really meant.
I do now, yes.
Thank you.
But yes, this is what we do.
Well, I have some thoughts about this.
Um, I got one more clip just to get before... Okay, alright.
Because it wasn't Ask Adam officially.
No, the Ask Adam is coming.
Ask Adam, okay, alright.
Ask him.
But I have something to say about monkey pox.
Don't cut away from monkey pox.
This is the original clip I was looking for.
This is fear porn.
Play this one.
Oh, okay.
The virus is behaving unusually from how it used to behave in the past.
We're encouraging countries to do surveillance, contact tracing.
It causes flu-like symptoms like fevers, chills, muscle aches, and headaches, then a rash.
A virus behaving unusually.
Contact tracing, flu-like symptoms.
It all sounds familiar, but these reports are not about the coronavirus.
They're about monkeypox, also known as MPX.
I'm ready for the Ask Adam.
Okay, we'll do the Ask Adam, then you... Ask Adam.
Alright, Ask Adam.
Okay.
This is a clip about, uh... Well, I'll just play this clip straight up.
I don't think it needs a setup, but it probably does.
Oh, it's titled Ask Adam?
Okay, I gotcha.
Yeah.
Oh, sorry.
...may feel that this is not a concern to them and may feel that this is an infection that can only affect gay men or bisexual men or other men who have sex with men.
Okay.
Bisexual men.
Okay, I'm ready for the Ask Adam.
The Ask Adam is, the way they said it is that they're trying to generalize about men having sex with men.
They say bisexual men have sex with men.
Yes.
Homosexual men, gay men, have sex with men.
And then they say other men who have sex with men.
Who are the other men, and how are they not either gay or bisexual?
Uh, they are trans men.
I think that's probably the right answer.
Yes.
I was gonna say priests.
I clearly didn't play the right way.
That was a joke.
A good one.
I just said it was a joke.
I like it.
I think it's funny.
Okay.
You're going to hell, but otherwise it's pretty funny.
Well, I can, I can atone.
Okay, this whole thing, have we learned nothing, my gay brothers, have we learned nothing from Anthony Fauci and Deborah Birx in the 80s doing, this is the exact same playbook.
Next it's going to be, you might be able to get it from, from touching a surface.
You might be able to get, even though it's medically, well, if you touch someone who has it, you're going to get it.
But this is exactly how AIDS, which came from the HIV virus, was stigmatized gay men.
Of course, bisexual men, they only have sex with men, right?
No, of course not.
Who was at most risk of contracting HIV and subsequently AIDS and dying?
Women!
Women!
So why?
I mean, how can anyone not even listen, in the news media, listen to this and not say, wait a minute, we were so wrong about AIDS.
And boy, were we.
We were so wrong.
Why are we doing the exact same thing?
And the answer is because all men must be exterminated and removed.
Throw Juneteenth on Father's Day because, you know, black men don't deserve anything.
Black fathers don't count.
The gays, they're too masculine.
Toxic masculinity.
They're gay guys.
Lesbians, you're on deck.
This is very destructive.
And this comes from the so-called people who revere and love the LGBTQI plus community.
Bullshit!
This is... this is so bad!
Screw the... I don't care if it was, you know, blister on your thumb disease.
The fact that you're doing this is so stupid!
It's not... it doesn't even make medical sense.
Or societal sense.
How many?
Cue it up.
Cue it up.
But I can only have one a show.
Sure you can.
You can have two.
No, I love people who say, I don't understand this.
Because AIDS was never a gay disease either.
AIDS is not a disease.
HIV is a virus.
And, you know, there's questions as to what killed the people who got the AIDS.
So AIDS, you can get AIDS from vaccination.
Yeah.
And we have to always remember, it was actually designed at Fort Detrick to wipe out parts of Africa.
HIV.
Yes.
Yes, of course.
That's what you do.
So, you know, so people who don't see this, that this is a setup.
And where's the gays?
Where's the 75- You're all in these reports from NPR, you heard the guy.
Yeah, but that's not a- that's not my old neighbor Steve.
And by the way, he has to sound gay or he can't be on it.
Well, of course.
I mean, it's not video.
He has to sound like a San Francisco gay or he doesn't get on the show.
You're not in the package.
Oh, I'm disgusted by this.
It's insane.
Oh yeah, only gay guys.
Oh yeah, only gay guys.
I mean, what is the implication of that?
What are they really implying?
That you can only get it through anal sex?
Or anal to oral?
I don't know.
What is the implication?
I have no idea.
I don't want to think about the implications.
No, I know, but something about being gay that makes you special?
That the MPX wants you?
They're diseased.
That's what it really says.
This is like, let's go back to Nazi Germany.
They're diseased.
All corksokers will die.
All right.
All right, well, that was great.
Thanks.
I'm thoroughly depressed.
Well, no, well, okay, here we go.
I am very disappointed in the January 6th committee, the J616, J616 committee.
They screwed it up.
They brought in the ABC guy.
Could have told you.
But it's not the way to go.
The Curry Dvorak Consulting Group said if you want prime time, you've got to do it completely differently.
No.
Oh no.
They can't even stay on during the day.
As we come up at the top of the hour, we're gonna have to end our coverage of this January 6th hearing on the NBC Network.
My colleagues and I will continue our coverage on the hearings on our streaming platform, NBC News Now.
For everyone else, U.S.
Open Golf begins momentarily.
I'm Lester Holt for NBC News in New York.
Good day.
This is what I said from the get-go.
You did.
I did.
Had to break away for golf!
I'm going to repeat why I said it.
Please do.
The two of us listen to a lot of these hearings.
Yeah.
We don't actually listen to as many as we could because they're very time-consuming to get one little clip.
We have to spend hours.
And they are extremely boring, and the way these congresspeople, senators and congressmen and women, speak is with a lot of pauses and very thoughtfully, because they don't want to say anything wrong, so they have to be clipped down and edited to make it sound even remotely not to put you asleep.
It's just, it's boring.
That's the point.
And they couldn't do it.
Now just something in general about the technical process, or about the process as an American citizen, not as a deconstructor, but as an American citizen.
I find it not just odd, but I find it's a mistake, and it's messed up.
If you're going to show testimony of people's depositions, don't you think that the Jan 6th committee should release the full transcripts of all of the depositions, not just this soundbite here, soundbite there, and say, you know, we edited it down for your convenience, for brevity.
I'm on my iPhone.
You know, isn't that, isn't it procedurally, isn't that just completely messed up?
What's completely messed up is the whole January 6th committee.
Liz Cheney and Kinzinger, whatever his name is, those two shouldn't even be on the committee, the two Republicans.
They should recuse themselves for being Trump haters.
I mean, in any other situation.
No, no.
Come on, we'd have nothing to talk about if they did that.
What would the Tim Pool show be about?
Come on!
Megyn Kelly would die!
Does she still have a show?
Oh, yeah.
She's never having me on again, though.
It's obvious.
Well, she may have you on.
No, I countered her on Putin.
I countered her on Putin.
Yeah, but she's, you know, she's still... Yeah, see?
What you do is you talk smack about... You talk smack about Miller Kelly and they cut you off.
What were you saying?
I was just saying that you were right to begin with.
There's no drama in these hearings.
There's no back and forth.
That's why they needed a Jim Jordan.
Yes!
They need to have the battle going on to get people's attention.
This is just a one-sided kangaroo court.
And Liz Cheney should have done that.
She could have done... Imagine if you and I were doing it.
She hasn't got the guts to get out of her own way.
We would have trained her.
To do it in a way, and questions would be like, well, didn't you have this?
And then it would be a setup because the answer would be so clear, you know, and then she'd go, well, you've convinced me.
I mean, there's so many different ways you could have done that to show anger, to show drama, to show a attention arc, as we say in the biz, and then pay that off.
You know, after recess, you know, keep people, uh, you know, riveted?
No.
None of that.
And then for the- Well, the ABC guy did nothing from what I can tell, except create some videos.
It's scripts!
They wrote a script!
They wrote a script with some B- with some roll-ins!
It's terrible.
Yes!
I mean, there's no- there's no- Look, they went through the trouble of getting a big room and putting up the screen.
But come on, how about some graphics?
Some sound effects.
People would not have complained about it.
They were like, oh, this is a pretty cool shoot.
We would, but yes.
How about, I mean, why not?
And no one has done this.
Why not do it like Depp and Hurd?
Turd.
Why not do it like those guys?
Like the high-end junkies?
And, you know, break away and like, okay, we're gonna break away from this boring shit.
Oh, you mean like Court TV?
Yeah!
I'll tell you what's going on.
Put a box in there.
This is pretty boring television to begin with, but it's more exciting than this.
You're probably right.
Because what happened?
In fact, now that you mention it, that's a great idea.
They should have had a couple of hosts.
Yeah, like Vinnie there on Court TV.
No, you want the guy from Missouri, what's his name, the old Democrat grouch who keeps complaining about wokeness.
Come on, the consultant.
He was married to the reporter.
Oh, the flasher.
No, is he a flasher?
Carvel?
Is he a flasher?
Well, they portrayed him as one in that movie that came out about the Clinton campaign.
It was called The Color Red or Colorbrata or whatever the name of the thing was.
And they said he was a flasher?
He was a flasher in that movie, yeah.
Wow.
And that was a dramatized version?
Yeah.
And that guy that was in the movie was supposed to be Carvel.
What's he working with?
Well, I don't know.
I never saw it.
Oh, okay.
Well, I thought you saw the movie.
I mean, I didn't see it.
I saw the movie.
So this should get him in.
So I don't know what he was working with.
Could have been huge.
I have no idea.
I mean, Newt Gingrich used to be good.
He won't be good anymore.
Who could you get in for a great old school... He's still not bad.
Yeah, he's a little slow.
He's talking a little slow.
He's slower than he used to be, but he used to be annoyingly good.
Ann Coulter.
Get her in.
Because she hates Trump.
So it would be kind of extra good.
You know, she could be seen as...
Down the middle.
Coulter would be good, yes.
Yeah, I mean, we know how to do these things.
Put Shapiro on.
There you go.
Shapiro, Poole, put them all in a room.
With the guy who sells gold, let him have an opinion too.
This would be a great show!
Let me tell you, the economy's going to shit!
Buy gold!
Okay, so because of this... So no one's listening to us anyway, so... Because of this crappy production, you're leaving room for all kinds... This is what breeds conspiracy theories, and the best one came from Richard Hoagland, On Coast to Coast, which is a fabulous podcast.
It's a radio show, but you can get it as a podcast.
China on Twitter.
It's a Twitter, yeah.
The official Chinese equivalent of NASA News Agency, and they are saying they picked up signals.
Well, that's news to the rest of us.
I mean, think about this.
One of three major planetary governments in the early part of the 21st century announces formally through its political and governmental distribution agency that they've heard intelligent E.T.
signals, and nobody responds!
Nothing.
I haven't heard anything from SETI.
Have you?
No, and I'll tell you why.
Why do you think the damn hearings on the destruction of the country are occurring right now in Washington and for the next several weeks?
As distraction!
Now we know!
The aliens are coming and we're being distracted!
Well, this makes it extra troubling.
Yeah, because the distraction stinks.
And if people are paying attention when they come, it's gonna suck.
It will not go the way the aliens intended.
I do think it's kind of cool.
That report was out there that China... Hey man, we're receiving some shit.
I'm going to break out the ham gear.
It's about time to start talking back to him.
Do you find Alpha Charlie Charlie for the aliens?
Stay away.
This planet sucks.
So that's the problem.
That was good.
Thank you.
So this judge that testified ended up on NPR and they interviewed him and his name was Lou Stig.
He's just a dud and he's a bushite.
Casting!
Another thing about this whole, the casting sucked!
Yeah, and this guy's a bushy.
He's a bushy.
And so, you know, he worked for the Bush administration.
We all know that because of Jeb, Jeb Bush, you know, being told that he's a moron and an idiot in front of all the people at the various debates where Trump just called him a, you know, boring, stupid and the rest of it.
Low energy, low energy Jeb.
Low energy Jeb.
Which wiped out the Bush dynasty, thank you.
Again, again, Curry Dvorak consulting.
We know how to pep up your candidate.
So, uh... With hookers.
That would hurt.
So you have the Bush dynasty basically destroyed by Donald Trump, which people should be very happy about.
Nobody is.
No.
I personally consider it his greatest achievement.
His greatest achievement to get rid of that Bush dynasty.
Those guys.
So this Bushy comes on.
He failed on the Clintons, by the way.
He failed on that.
I'm sorry, what?
He failed on the Clintons.
He didn't quite get rid of that dynasty.
No, he didn't quite get rid of it, no.
He was close.
Dinged him, dinged him, dinged him hard.
So this guy's name's Lustig, and so I have a little four-pack series of him talking to NPR.
Okay, okay.
Is it this NPR?
Yes, it's NPR.
It's an interview with this guy who hates Trump.
Yeah, I hate Trump.
But he's a Republican and they pounded home and they try to do this.
I don't know how they're getting, trying to pull this off, but not all Republicans are bad.
Most of them, I guess, are.
So let's listen to this.
During Thursday's January 6th committee hearing, one witness issued a dire warning to the country.
J. Michael Ludig is a retired federal judge who advised Vice President Mike Pence that he could not overturn the results of the 2020 election despite pressure he was receiving from the president.
In his testimony this week, he said that almost two years after the riot at the U.S.
Capitol, quote, Donald Trump and his allies and supporters are a clear and present danger to American democracy.
Ludwig said we're at a crossroads similar to the ones the United States faced during the Civil War.
And he said America needs help.
The question now is what kind and how should the country navigate its way through these crossroads?
Judge Ludwig was appointed to the federal bench by George H.W. Bush.
And before that worked for the Bush administration and also in the Reagan White House.
Michael Ludwig joins us now.
Thank you for being with us.
Can I ask you a question?
The term clear and present danger, did that stem from anywhere but the Tom Clancy novel? - Oh.
I don't know.
I don't really know.
I mean, I thought it was the Tom Clancy.
Clancy was very good at titling things and coming up with little gimmicks and it probably was a Tom Clancy thing.
Because the way it's said here, and this may be a millennial thing, It's my belief that a lot of people believe that clear and present danger is a legal term.
And it may be, it may be, but I don't think so.
But the way it was said in this report, clear, you know, if the January 6th committee is citing Tom Clancy, I mean seriously, I mean... Somebody might know.
I mean, if I was to guess, I would think that Tom Clancy came up with it as just a clever title.
But I can't say that it doesn't exist.
Clear and present danger.
Legal definition.
Oh, here we go.
There is a clear and present danger test originated in Schenck v. United States says the printed or spoken word may not be the subject of previous restraint or subsequent punishment unless its expression creates a clear and present danger of bringing about a substantial evil.
Geez.
We need our lawyers on this.
I'd like to understand the jurisprudence.
There we go.
I'd like to understand the jurisprudence of clear and present danger.
We move on.
Okay, back to the judge, uh, the Republican judge.
Thank you, Adrian.
It's a pleasure to be with you this afternoon.
You said in your testimony –
step to finding the peaceful end to this.
Let's stop this clip.
Let's take a look at the premise of this question.
And the guy buys into it, by the way, because he's in agreement with the premise.
Oh, he wants a gig at NPR.
When did this begin, this battle, this division?
By the way, I think most people, historians, can see this going back to Martin Van Buren or before, or John Adams.
But let's forget all that and just look at who's triggered it most recently.
I'm putting the onus on Obama.
Well, yes, absolutely.
All right.
We're in agreement?
Yeah, we're in agreement.
Now we're in agreement.
You're talking about the Republican Party.
So what's the first step to finding the peaceful end to this war that you say our country needs?
I identified two wars that had been going on for at least two years.
The second war is the war that I termed the war for America's democracy.
Democracy.
And I said that that war... Okay, stop.
This guy talks just like Bill Barr.
He's not only a judge, he's in the milieu.
Did you notice it?
No, I mean, I understand.
I think the cadence is close, but Bill Barr clones sound just like Bill Barr.
Okay, I'll start listening in to Bill, but I think the milieu is correct.
Clear your mind and listen.
At least two years.
The second war is the war that I termed the war for America's democracy.
And I said that that war for democracy began On January 6, 2021, I go on to say that through the logic of reconciliation that I propose, it's incumbent upon the Republican Party
To begin the reconciliation process, because the Republican Party was responsible for the instigation of that second war on January 6, 2021.
It's especially in the O's.
I propose, he does the O's.
Democracy, democracy.
It's fine, it is Bill Barr, but let's listen to what he has to say.
And a couple of things is, one of them is, the old Republican Party is long dead.
And Trump was really the embodiment of what people want, the direction people wanted to go, which was to be a little more populist, a little more... Wish granted.
Bing!
Yeah, well, it was definitely a... Populist.
Populist for sure, but also more of a people's party, and more of an American people's party, as opposed to a socialist style of people's party.
Right.
You know, representing labor... Workers, sure.
And not to just click completely away from this, I want to come back to it, but The thing that got my attention was something that I didn't see reported anywhere except on Liz Wheeler's podcast.
I'm going to play that.
Oh goodness.
Yeah, I'm digging around.
Slow news day?
No, I was just digging around.
Where is this clip?
Liz Wheeler.
You want me to play Liz Wheeler?
Not the one that says Archive.
I don't want you playing that one.
You can find another one.
W-W-W-P.
No, no, no.
Here it is.
Texas.
Play the Texas clip.
Tex-Ass Hispanic Winner?
Yep.
La Ola Roja, the red wave of 2022, has begun, my friend, and it's starting in Texas.
Maybe you have not heard of this name before a month or two months ago.
Maya Flores won the House seat in the 34th congressional district in Texas.
She's the first Mexican-born individual to now serve in the United States Congress.
She won in a special election on June 14th, just this week.
And what's striking about her victory here isn't actually her background per se.
It isn't actually the fact that she was born in Mexico.
It's the fact that she ran as a Republican in the second most Hispanic district in the entire country.
That's really not, uh, nobody's bragging about that.
Yeah, Tucker Carlson is.
Yo, well, besides Carlson.
And Hannity, all the Fox, the Fox evening lineup.
Well, besides Fox, but the mainstream media has not, has, has avoided discussing it.
No, I would say that it's used in the following.
I haven't heard anything.
Because you don't, you don't watch MSNBC and CNN.
I do.
Yes.
It goes like this.
You know, I think that was a perfect impression.
This is a Hispanic woman, a Latinx, when you shoot a Republican.
And she, baby, votes in the circuit.
I think that was a perfect impression.
The Republicans, the Hispanic community in general, especially the Catholic family-oriented Hispanic community, is more likely to, once they get a clue, to go Republican, new Republican, not old Republican, New Republican than they are to go Democrat.
New Republican!
And so these new Republicans are a huge threat, which is the most Republicans are new Republicans now.
And there's still these old dogs that are out there, and that's what they're talking about at this hearing, and that's what this old judge is talking about.
He is a, you know, old fart that wants the Republican Party to return back to the, you know, Cleveland era.
Yeah, he's classic.
He's classic Republican.
Like classic Coke.
Classic Republican.
CR.
Yeah, so let's continue with him.
What does that reconciliation process look like?
What's required is a critical mass of our nation's leaders from both parties to summon the moral and political courage to extend their hands
To each other, and then to their other colleagues, and all of those colleagues then to extend their hands to America, and acknowledge that America is in peril, and that America needs their help.
No it's not!
Wait a minute, this is... Put your hand in the hand of the man that made the waters.
That's what he's saying.
That's what he's saying.
Ugh.
Or I'd like to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony by Coca-Cola is what he's trying to say.
Exactly.
All right, let's continue with this guy.
Idea that we can get to a better place in our country when you have people at these important high levels who are denying the 2020 election results still.
You don't and you can't.
Huh.
Okay, let's stop there and ask this question.
Jeffrey Toobin, the favorite, he's such a favorite of the Democrats and such a fan favorite that after masturbating on camera, he's still on CNN showing up from the waist up.
And if you recall... But he repented!
He repented!
Yeah, sure he did.
Once an Onanist, always an Onanist.
Now, he's the one that was on the C-SPAN show, which we had a clip of going on and on, because C-SPAN guy mentioned that, well, this was just a few years ago, that the 2020 election was Surveyed by the Miami Herald who did a very thorough job and determined that, yes, George Bush won.
You mean the 2000 election, you mean?
The 2000, okay, that's what I meant, sorry.
The 2000, good one.
2000 election was re-surveyed and it turned out that, yes, George Bush did win and Toobin said, no, he didn't.
I looked at that, no, he didn't win.
George Bush did not.
The Democrats have been denying the election of George Bush in 2000 to this day.
I think Al Gore still comes on stage and says, hi, I'm the one who should have been the president.
So how is that different?
You're doing whataboutism, man!
Yeah, you're right.
Okay, onward with the judge.
I'll just put this in place.
I think as a general rule for us, and I'm just as guilty, So I'm not picking on you, but who else will I pick on?
It's you and me.
I think complaining about hypocrisy is what every single podcast does.
Every guest does it.
Every host does it.
Every podcast is hours of, he's so hypocritical, hypocrisy!
I didn't use the word hypocritical.
I know you didn't, but I think you understand what I'm saying.
Yeah, okay.
Well, that's what I said.
Let's get back to the clips.
Well, that was your fourth clip.
Is there more?
Oh, that was the fourth clip?
That was the so-called kick.
Oh, the kicker.
Okay, well, never mind.
No, there's no more.
I don't have anything to do with this guy.
By the way, a quick callback to the renaming of Monkeypox to MPX.
There was a suggestion in the troll room I wanted to float by us, which is Bipox.
I think that's a great idea.
I don't think we can do it as a show title.
We'll probably get in trouble.
That is a great one.
It's a good one.
That would have been terrific.
It would have really targeted the gay community, the bi community.
Yeah.
It's with an X, by the way.
It's BIPOX, not BIPOX.
So this riveting testimony was also preempted on many PBS stations by Curious George.
According to the Washington Post, which I wholeheartedly believe.
Of course, we can't keep the... And I'm happy that the kid... You know what?
You know... Isn't Curious George problematic at this point?
Don't you think a brown character that is a monkey...
That, you know, that does stuff and gets up to mischief.
Isn't that kind of racist?
Why is Curious George still on the air?
Who would put that out?
PBS?
PBS stations?
I think it's time.
To call out Curious George for what it is?
I don't want to call anybody out for being the perfect candidate to make a fuss, but I think MoFax would have a lot of fun with that.
Ah, yes.
I mean, there's a lot of stuff to focus on these days, but heck, man, let's have some fun with Curious George.
Yeah.
And whatever white supremacists disrupted the January 6 hearings for that racist show corrupting our children.
Yeah, I think there's your shoehorn right there.
Well, that's what we would have done if we were producing it.
We would have not been preempted by Curious George if we said, wow, it's really interesting, PBS who gets, you know, money from all these big elites who, by the way, have not really donated yet, you know, all the big foundations, they are really sponsoring racism over, in fact, they're covering up.
They're trying to hide the real racism.
Over the destruction of democracy.
Democracy is on the brink and PBS wants our children watching racist monkeys.
There you go.
And you can't... And who knows?
Curious George might have the monkey pox!
We can just keep it going.
By far the most irritating thing, I didn't clip it, is the use of the P-word.
P-word.
He said the P-word.
What's the P-word?
Pussy.
He said the Mike Pence, you're a pussy.
But that had to be... You didn't see this?
No, I didn't.
Aw, man, I should have clipped it now.
Yeah, well, we can't say pussy in the hearing, so we have to say, uh, he called Mike Pence the P-word.
Well, as you saw, I said, what is the P-word?
And unknowingly, I didn't think that was a word that was, uh, banned from Congress.
What are they talking about here?
It's bullcrap.
They used to just say it when Trump said, grab her by the pussy, all the news stations were out there.
They like to say it over and over.
Yeah.
Giggling.
Yes.
It's weird.
Shit's weird, man.
We did get corrected.
Um, by a, not really a, not by an angry producer, but just so you know, man, there were people arrested with guns on January 6th.
It wasn't an unarmed insurrection.
Okay.
There's a guy with a gun?
Good.
No, there were four people.
Four people.
That's all it takes to overthrow the government.
Four guns and some yahoos.
Four guys and four guns.
And some Oath Keepers.
You're good to go.
It's alright.
It's worse than 9-11, man.
Worse than Pearl Harbor.
All right.
Do you have anything more on this debacle?
Actually, what else?
Did I have anything here?
No.
Oh, yeah.
Another thing we would... You know that YouTube removed a video which was uploaded by the January 6, Jan 6, 1, 6 House panel themselves, which included President Trump saying the 2020 general elections were, quote, stolen.
Widespread fraud errors or glitches change the outcome of the 2020 U.S.
presidential election if it does not provide sufficient context.
We enforce our policies equally for everyone and have removed the video uploaded by the January 6th Committee channel.
What is wrong?
I mean, if we were trying to make this work for the January 6th Committee, Don't you think we would have clued in our YouTube buddies through the back door?
It's unbelievable.
Let's face it, the January 6th committee is incompetent.
And with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you, the man who put the C in the incompetent January 6th committee, ladies and gentlemen, please say in the morning to Mr. John C. Dvorak!
Well, in the morning, you, Mr. Adekoree, in the morning, ships to sea, boots on the ground, feet in the air, subs in the water.
And all the dames and knights out there.
And again, a big happy Father's Day to all the dads out there.
Let's see how many of you trolls are dads.
Let's just count all the trolls.
Hands up there, trolls.
Let me see you scurry away.
Aye, you ugly trolls.
Hide if you can.
2062.
You know what that means?
A lot of dads are just lonely today.
A whole bunch of people hanging out in the- Put on a shirt!
How do you come up with these things?
You're a comedic genius, man.
They flash in my mind.
I can't do anything about it.
Uh, the trolls are hanging out at trollroom.io.
You can go there and you can, uh, it's a webpage.
You can just click play.
You can listen to the live stream or whatever's playing is 24 seven and, uh, and, and log right in there into the troll room.
Or if you're using one of the new podcast apps, newpodcastapps.com.

That means it's federated so you can follow us from any Mastodon server.
And there are plenty of them to find.
You could always even set one up yourself.
It's crazy how that works.
And let us thank the artist who so generously contributed to episode 1460.
Let's see, we titled that episode Wet Bulb.
A lot of feedback on the title.
People kind of misunderstood that we understand the concept of wet bulb.
Hey man, that's been around forever!
Wet bulb conditions are really bad.
Have you never heard?
I'm surprised you've never heard of it.
The point was, Wet Bulb was being used- That guy again.
That's Stek, actually.
Does he ever email you?
He used to email me all the time.
So now he- But then he found- He's- He's- He's- He's- Okay.
He's fickle.
And so, I think one time or another, I don't know if this is, you know, I said something to him, right?
I must have offended him.
And he found a better, a better target.
You.
Me.
Well, no, he actually, he sends me many clips.
And some of them are very useful.
He's got good material, good observation, everything about it.
But I think at some point, I, since the way I deal with these, with this kind of, because I do most of my own research.
Let's face it, you blocked him.
I don't think I blocked him.
You blocked him!
You don't do research.
When someone annoys you, whatever it is, block.
Come on now.
Oh!
There you go, you're back.
You got blocked.
I got blocked!
Well, anyway, what he likes, he sends great clips, but he likes to comment on how dumb you are.
And I always say, I always say, email him, man.
Why are you telling me?
So now I get satisfaction.
What dumb thing did I say this time?
You didn't know what wet bulb is?
Cannot believe it!
I'm surprised!
I didn't know it.
Well, you know, I probably did know what wet bulb is because I used to be an air pollution inspector and we used to have these spinning thermometers and to get the relative humidity you'd go out and you'd spin this thing and you'd have these two thermometers and one of them had a little piece of cloth at the bottom that you would wet.
And so there was a piece of, it was like cheesecloth at the bottom, and you would keep one of them wet and one of them would be... Dry.
Dry.
And you spin this thing around and so, because the wet... And wherever it was pointing, you had to kiss that person?
You spin it around, the wet side, it would cool off as you spun it.
And then you get these two temperatures and you can make calculations and tell what the humidity was.
So yeah, I know what it was.
I don't know that.
A blue, a wet bulb, a wet bulb, I don't know, a wet bulb, it might have been light bulb, is it wet, is it LED, what are we talking about?
Alright, I'm gonna clue you, I think I know what this is really about.
It's just, and I'm just telling you because this is an analysis, it's not how I feel about you or anything.
I think he's an old guy who just wants to bitch about some other old guy.
Could be.
And I'm always saying, man, you're an... That old fart, he doesn't even know what a wet bulb is!
How many of you listen to that guy?
What he's really saying, I've always noticed these guys who do this... Hold on, let me find the email.
Why don't you fire him and put me on your show?
That may... No, I get a lot of those.
Oh my goodness.
They never suggest John Steck, but I do get a lot of the... Get rid of that man.
John Steck on the show.
Why don't you do a special show with Johnstown?
We'll be good.
I don't want to!
Wait a minute, wait a minute.
I gotta find one of his... He sent an ex... And the only reason I say this, he sent an exceptional amount today.
Um, what is this?
OMG, LOL.
Uh... Oh, man.
Oh, here it is, here it is.
I apologize to the audience for being off the rail since the very beginning of the show, but it's a Father's Day show, we can do what we want.
Dvorak may never have heard of it, but he may have slept through that class.
Surprised it was new to him, since he often says he worked in a laboratory, where the term is routinely used to measure relative humidity.
The term is not routinely used.
It's just a device, and you put some water on this little piece of cloth.
No one says, you got your wet bulb on today?
Routinely used?
I don't think so.
I did work in a lab, and I can tell you right now, the term wet bulb is not routinely used.
Yeah, but see, here's his pitch.
The next paragraph, you're right.
At any rate, when I worked in the Middle East decades ago, I was cautioned about the Red Sea coast of Saudi and Yemen.
He's showing to me that he's worldly.
In both of those places, as well as parts of India, I mean, now he's a worldly guy, And elsewhere, the humidity and air temperature often reaches a point at which the human body and most mammals can no longer expel body heat through sweating.
The air is already saturated, cannot absorb more water, heat stroke and death results.
Chicago.
He's from Chicago.
Yeah, I know.
I don't know why he mentioned Chicago.
That's a terrible place.
Wow.
Okay.
So, well, anyway, it was nice getting clips from Stek.
I guess that's gonna end.
Yeah, I guess so.
Thank you.
There you go, people, ladies and gentlemen.
That's the thanks you get.
It's been going on for so long, for years, where I say, just email him these complaints.
Why are you emailing me?
How much complaining is he doing?
Okay.
Well, the block is coming.
Okay.
Let's see.
WTF.
This is all today.
2.45 Thursday show.
Dvorak brings up the 2020 elections and you say, yes, let's look at it for a moment.
Then you immediately bring up Michelle Obama running for president in 2024.
Let's coin a new term for this reminiscent of Mandela.
The Dvorak effect.
This is all from today.
Fuel cell fact check.
I won't ridicule Dvorak for his uninformed comments because what's the point?
But, God, this is great content.
The problem with fuel cells, which my former employer developed, was it the Saudis?
Is not ice out the tailpipe nor cold weather.
That's idiotic.
In fact, they use fuel cells in the frigid expanses of outer space at minus 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Hello!
I hope this is funny for other people because I find this very good.
It's really, it's so, um...
It's relieving for me.
Look, the ice out the tailpipes comes from a guy who drove a fuel cell car, officially had one leased to him by Toyota.
I've driven them around.
I didn't know anything about the ice or the water flying out the back like that.
I didn't.
I was just reading his letter.
Hey, I think you're right, though.
By the way, and I believe it to be true.
I mean, just because you have some fuel cells aren't just hydrogen fuel cells.
There's plenty of different kinds of fuel cells.
Hey, John.
Let's move on with the fun segment.
Let's not get into fuel cells.
He gives a crap.
This is the next one.
And I think he's right.
And I'm putting him on the bench.
I'm putting him as backup.
He is showing... You're right!
So we were talking about driver's education in the horrible movies.
Oh, he's gonna do you one better.
He's prepping for his, for his, to take over.
In my, in my high school.
You know, so his high school, clearly better than yours.
One of the driver's ed teachers was also the ski club chaperone and sponsor.
That dirtbag used to shack up with one of our 16-year-old class sluts on ski weekends.
That was common knowledge.
No one seemed to care back in the day how things change.
I wonder if Dvorak has similar stories.
I was checking out with some 16-year-old from Tennyson High.
Oh, man!
He is totally telling me that, you know, if you're tired of Dvorak, I'm better and I'm here.
And I've got stories.
Well, he's got some, that's for sure.
My goodness.
Oh, OMG LOL.
Dvorak literally, literally couldn't recall what he said to you five seconds earlier about the January 6th five-second hearing time wasters.
That excerpt should be next Sunday's clip of the day.
Wow, is he pissed off at me for what?
Just so you know, this has been like this for years.
Yeah, it's been four years since I stopped hearing from him.
Maybe you should, uh, unblock him and let him email you.
I think you guys might have some things in common.
Uh, nothing I can see.
I haven't been to India.
Oh, Brit and such.
F off.
Stupid troll.
Here we go.
Thank you very much, Tantaniel, for the, uh, for the artwork for episode 1460, which, again, we titled Wet Bulb.
We won't go through that again.
Um, there were, there were a couple of pieces of art.
Now, this is the carpooling, cuts your expenses by 33%.
Very nice.
It had tri-carpooling.
It was very nice.
It was really quite nice.
And there were some other things that we looked at.
It's a free covfefe.
I thought that was funny.
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
It had nice little things in there, little extra bits.
Well, this was not an original choice because we couldn't come up with anything.
And you liked the phone, but I didn't like the phone.
Um, Oh, there wasn't really- wasn't a good selection, uh, this particular- I think it was hard from the- because the basis- on the basis of what we talked about in the show, there wasn't a lot of material that you could turn into art.
Um... Let me see what we were looking at.
This squirt was kind of amusing, but we weren't gonna go with that.
No, it was funny though, because it was such a throwaway line, I didn't expect anything to pop up about Squirt.
Yeah.
Let me see... Was that Monkeypox?
The name?
Renaming Monkeypox?
I think that might have been on there.
Contagious Boyle Syndrome we had on there.
CBS with the CBS logo on the monkey face.
That was close.
Yes.
But it wasn't a great piece.
No, we didn't have it.
There were no great pieces.
The only good piece was this.
Well, I liked the LGBTQ, the cross with like a strength, weakness, opportunity, and risk type of grid.
It was a pink cross.
Oh, that one.
Yeah.
Yeah, you liked that one.
I didn't like it at all.
It was okay.
It was okay.
Yeah.
There were lots of...
Uh, Karina Abdul Jean-Pierre and, uh, the diversity, diversity woman.
Right.
But it's just, you know, just to put a woman on there with, with a, with a rainbow flag.
I mean, it's not, it's not really, it wasn't getting me.
No, the only good piece was Tantaniel's.
Yeah, and she did two.
Didn't she do two of them?
She did an earlier one that wasn't as good.
Yeah, then this one nailed it.
Then she pumped it up.
We appreciate it, Tante Nail.
Thank you very much for submitting your artwork.
All the artists, look at the amount of work that goes into it.
I want to start seeing art again from Dame Kenny Ben, who got irked with me, much the way John Steck was.
You need to unblock her.
I did!
I finally found out how to do it.
Have you blocked any other artist?
No, I haven't blocked artists.
I don't block artists.
Well, she said she blocked you, uh, or she, and she's, I think she may have stopped submitting because you blocked, you blocked artists.
I think you blocked some other artists too.
No, I've never blocked any artists.
You're an artist blocker.
No, I blocked that one guy who claimed to be an artist.
I have no idea whatever art he did and he was bitching and moaning.
You're an artist blocker.
You're blocking creative spirit.
This is, Stek's gonna email me now.
And that guy was just a troublemaker, so I couldn't stand it, so I just blocked him.
Okay.
Tantanil, thank you very much.
You can follow along if you're listening live, just refresh during the show.
You can see the artists are uploading as we speak.
I mean, there's already a BIPOX monkey up there.
People are so fast and so good, and we appreciate it.
It is part of the value for value model.
Look around.
How many podcasts have fresh, good, really good album art every single show?
Well, you can count them on one hand, if that.
And that's because of how we've done things.
You know, we don't have ads, we don't take corporate money.
I'm still waiting for the check from the oil companies, according to our energy secretary.
Yeah, that check should be here any minute now.
Because that's what they do, so we can discredit wind and solar.
We don't need to get paid to do that.
All we want to do is just deconstruct the media and bring the best that we can to you, as clean as we see it.
And we spend a lot of time on it.
It's our entire vocation.
So we like time, talent.
That's really witnessed here in these pieces of art and treasure.
So if you'd like to submit some of this and spend some of your time and talent, noagendaartgenerator.com.
If you'd like to support us financially, which we certainly need the T, the treasure T, it's devorak.org slash NA.
And let's kick it off right away with our first executive producer, For episode 1461, Tim Alcott is from Odenton, Maryland.
I wonder where Odenton is.
I've never heard of Odenton.
Odenton.
Odin.
Oh, I thought it was an L in there.
Odenton.
Well, I haven't heard of Odenton either.
I haven't either.
From Odenton.
And says, Happy Dad's Day, y'all!
That's $619.22, I might add.
$619.22.
That would be today's date.
Very nice.
Yeah.
And that was the suggested Father's Day donation.
With this donation... No, it was.
No, the Father's Day donation was wide open.
$619.22 was the Juneteenth donation.
Oh, okay.
Well, he's satisfying both groups now.
I didn't think we were going to do it.
One guy was even going to throw in on the donation.
This is the guy.
This is the guy.
Tim.
With this donation, I move into knighthood and claim the title Sir Rhodey Joe of the Eastern Seaboard Trucking Lanes.
You got it.
For the round table, he requests Shepherd's Pie and Sam Adams.
Well, that's a simple one.
We love that.
And he requests Yak Karma for all.
Thank you very much, Tim Alcott from Odenton, Maryland.
Thank you very much, sir.
You've got...
Karma.
George Walther is George's, which could be because he's in Luxembourg.
He's in Leutolonga.
I'm guessing $546.20.
and Lodalonga, I'm guessing, $546.20.
Lodalonga.
Lodalonga. Lodalonga. Lodalonga.
ITM, John and Adam, this donation is in honor of my 54th trip around the sun.
It brings me to knighthood.
I'd like to be known as Sir Galteron of the Gutland.
Okay.
Or Gutland.
Uh, I, can I have buckwheat whiskey from Brittany?
That's interesting.
Wow, that's a new request here.
Well, I didn't know there was, uh, that Brittany made a Buckwheat Whiskey.
And, I don't know, Co-ing-ah-mon, Co-ing-ah-mon.
How do you pronounce it?
I don't know.
I was hoping you could do it for me so I'll know how to pronounce it when I announce it.
It's like the knighting.
Co-ing-ah-mon at the Round Table.
Co-ing-ah-mon?
Co-ing-ah-mon.
Have you ever heard of this stuff?
No, I have not heard of the whiskey either.
Hmm.
Uh, yak karma, he wants some yak karma and he finishes with, love is lit.
Yeah, love is indeed lit.
You've got... karma.
The yak is extremely popular.
Makes my stomach hurt.
Bicky, Becky, Becky... Kinny.
Becky Kinney from Katy, Texas.
380.8, that's three boob.
3-8-0-0-8, I think.
I don't know.
Uh, Becky says, Happy Father's Day to my husband, Mike, lover of, well, you know!
Uh, yep, it's a, oh, it's a switcheroo, she says.
Okay, Mike.
So Mike will, uh, be the recipient of this executive producer credit.
De-douche him, please!
You've been de-douched.
And she says, she's a, ah, what a great wife.
Uh, please play Biden Whole Load, It's Not Happening, and Shut Up, Slave.
I'm gonna give you the whole load today.
That's not happening now.
Shut up, slave!
I'm not quite sure what that says about his, uh, his father's day.
I don't know what kind of, what kind of... Good luck!
Yeah, hats off to you, brother.
Mike.
Alrighty then, I'm just saying.
I'm just saying.
Christina Darrington in Lost Wages in Nevada 337.33.
And, uh, I'm making this donation on behalf of Tyler D from Lost Wages.
Uh, to make him an executive producer and second switcheroo in a row.
Alright.
In a row.
In a row.
Please de-douche him.
You've been de-douched.
A second husband de-douching in a row.
He's being de-douche but for not donating sooner.
Not sure how that works.
Happy Father's Day to my sexy husband and loving father to our children and for introducing me to the truth!
To the truth!
Meaning the No Agenda Show.
So my eyes could be opened!
At least play a few jingles.
Mac and cheese and Trump aroused and karma.
I noticed a theme with the moms and the wives today.
It was hard to get it aroused, and it is hard to get it aroused, but we got it aroused.
You've got karma.
What are these women saying to their husbands?
I don't know.
These stories are interesting.
Here's Sir R. Daniels, a No Agenda success story, if we've ever seen one, now the executive director of Project Veritas.
He's from Colts Neck, New Jersey, 333.67.
Let's see what's up with him.
He says, in the morning, gents, just finishing up our Central Jersey meetup at the 3BR Distillery in Keyport, New Jersey.
I'm following this up with a donation of 333.67, which gets me to my fourth knighthood.
What is a fourth knighthood, John?
That's a... Is that Barron?
I think that is Barron.
Barron Viscount?
Barron?
I think it's Barron.
I think it's Barron.
Thank you for your courage.
If anyone in Noah's generation is in a position to expose corruption, be brave, do something.
VeritasTips at ProtonMail.com or email me directly at Dan at ProjectVeritas.com.
No jingles, no karma.
Sir R. Daniels, how about that?
I love it that...
That we're somehow connected now.
And you know, we have at a back story, a back conversation with him.
I think you hooked him up with some sound engineers?
Yeah, they're having a meeting next week.
Yeah, so if you want to do something good for Project Veritas, make it so that a podcast can play an audio clip.
Yeah.
Because most of it is like... That's unplayable for us.
And I think he took it to heart, and I really appreciate his continued support throughout, oh, more than a decade, probably, he's been supporting us.
Uh, triple knight, uh, four to, okay, no, triple knight becomes the baron.
Uh, wait, yeah, becomes a baron.
Yeah, you, there's nothing for four knights.
Five knights, you become a viking.
Okay, so he's still a baron.
Yeah, he's still a baron.
Baron plus.
Baron plus knight.
Well, you know, you can give that knight to somebody else.
That's true.
Yeah, that's true.
He could bestow it upon someone.
Next on the list is Dan Downey in Goulds, Netherlands, 333.34.
And he says, note in the mail.
And so I go and this, I find this to be distressing.
I looked in my mail.
I couldn't find anything.
Well, it's because he's sending it here.
Here's his email.
I'm going to read this to you, and I'm going to ask a couple of questions to people in general.
I don't want to condemn anyone for doing this sort of thing.
But you're going to do it anyway.
Typical.
Thanks, John.
He writes, luckily the air has cleared a little in Canada over the last week, even though he's, I guess, in Canada.
Why is he saying thanks, John?
Did you have a conversation with him?
I think maybe I did.
Oh, okay.
Oh yeah, no, he wants other ways to donate, so I sent him a link to the donation... bank donation thing, and I told him I'm gonna have some... I'm gonna put some international... So you had an ongoing conversation, okay.
Yeah, well, yeah.
He said, thanks.
Luckily, the air's been clear a little in Canada last week.
I realized I could donate another way.
It's been successfully submitted.
A short note is in the mail.
Thanks for the show.
Best wishes, Dan.
Oh, okay.
And short note?
I don't have a short note.
It's in the mail.
And if he's from Canada, it could take years to get here, as anyone who mails from Canada knows.
Oh, it's not email?
He just put it in the email.
Because if he had had more time, he would have written a shorter note.
Well, that was pretty short, seems to me.
Anyway, thanks for the donation.
And because he has no note, he gets a double karma.
You've got There you go.
That's what you get.
Teresa Muzuko is in Snohomish, Snohomish?
Am I saying that right?
Snohomish.
Snohomish, Washington, 333.33.
And Teresa says, this is the second installment towards my husband Dale's knighthood and a Father's Day donation.
Does that, is that a switcheroo?
Doesn't say so.
Okay.
This is an extra emotional Father's Day as our human resource graduated high school and my husband's father passed away.
Aw.
Happy Father's Day.
We love you.
No jingles, just karma for all.
This is so heartwarming that this is being done.
You've got karma.
I love the love of dads in Gitmo Nation.
Good for the women.
Yes.
Sir Dave goes.
There he goes in Naples, Florida at 333.
That's a long note.
This week I filled up my truck with stupid expensive gas and the universe spoke to me again displaying a fuel range of 333 miles.
Pick attached.
Given the higher producer output lately, I figured I needed, given the lighter, lighter producer output, yes, lighter producer output, I figured I needed to do my part.
In return, I may humbly ask for a little plug for our new vodka and whiskey company, Metal Spirits.
You should talk to Darren O'Neill about this.
We're a lifestyle brand that is called metalspirits.com, metal, like metalhead.
We're a lifestyle brand that also has some of the smoothest vodka and rye whiskeys you'll ever taste.
We'll be launching toward the end of summer, but I'd love to get a bunch of No Agenda producers to check us out and leave their email for exclusive offers to the Metal Spirits Tribe and for No Agenda Nation.
Email is critical so we don't have to rely as much on Facebook and other social media outlets.
And yes, I will be sending you both samples for your brutally honest assessment.
Oh boy, yes.
Yeah, you know what?
I love that.
I love that people do that.
You know, there's the new Roadcaster Pro Mark 2 is coming out.
And this may be the one.
I think they may have done it.
Every YouTuber, every dipshit on YouTube, every dipshit who has a podcast gets one to try out.
I'm still waiting for the one I paid for.
Wait a minute.
Well, let me finish this note and then I'll say this.
Sorry.
And yes, it continues.
I'll be sending you both samples.
No jingles, but a big one.
Venture karma.
Karma would be appreciated.
Cheers.
And, and F and F Tito's, which is a vodka from Texas.
So Dave goes.
You've got karma.
Okay.
So let me get this straight.
You, uh, I'd say the inventor of podcasting, but everyone says the co-inventor, but let's just say that.
And someone who dabbles in electronics and kind of knows what's what, and is considered probably the best sound guy of all the people doing podcasts.
You're the definitive sound guy.
You're the guy who you would send this thing to immediately to get some feedback.
Yes.
But instead, they stiff you and send you nothing.
Correct.
Because they're, I believe, my original thesis, I believe they're afraid you're going to sue them.
Oh, that's really too bad.
Almost every other manufacturer of some device... No, there's been two I've had contact with.
No one has sent me anything, honestly.
Not a single one.
You know why?
The reason is not because they're afraid I'm going to sue them, because I won't, and I have no intention of suing them.
I'm sure it's taken a lot of money, time, and effort, and they've developed not one, but two.
This is the second hardware device To get to something that I could have advised them on seven years ago, so they could have gotten it right the first time.
That's okay, because it's not about money for me.
It's about making it easy for podcasters to do a podcast and record it and do it properly and be able to do it by themselves and not have to have some engineer go back and be like, you know, some Hollywood producer to create this whole soundtrack.
What they're afraid of is that I'm going to be honest.
You see, the YouTubers and the podcasters they send it to, those guys aren't going to slam it.
You know how this works.
You are the exception because you are the one person who will do a review, you'll take the junket, you'll go to China, they'll wine and dine you, and then you'll give their product a shit review because you figure they're not going to ask you back anyway, and that's the way to do it.
I would give an honest review.
And I would tell them privately.
I would tell them privately.
When I take the free junket, I always gave an honest review.
Yes, because you didn't care if they invited you back.
Right, so it could have been good, it could have been bad.
If it was good or bad, it doesn't make any difference because you never get invited back.
You get invited once.
But this is what Leo Laporte changed.
When he started sucking off tech companies about their latest phone, the whole industry, the whole tech No one ever is honest, really honest, because they don't want to get cut off.
They don't want the supply cut off.
They'll never say Apple sucks because then they won't get any more demo machines or get invited to the whatever stupid meeting you have to go to.
Yeah.
This is, this is rampant throughout technology.
And so they'll send these things because- This started way before Leo, actually.
Of course.
Yeah, but I like- And Leo, I think, still buys most of his stuff.
Yeah, but I, he deserves to get slammed just from, by me from time to time.
From time to time.
I need to do that.
He hates you.
Well, you can line up behind Darren O'Neill, okay?
It was Darren, yeah, but Darren's, yeah.
Anyway, the point is, if they had asked me, I would have reviewed it and I would have told them privately.
I wouldn't put them to shame, but now... Yeah, I... Hey, I think they're idiots.
But now that I had to buy it, you just wait.
You just wait.
And your earlier complaint, I have to say, this is one of the reasons people should be listening to this segment, because I'm going to play a clip.
Oh man, this is full-on content, yes.
Your earlier complaint about the reason for having a good device is so people can actually produce something without a million people.
I have a What's Wrong With This podcast clip, and this is our friend Liz Wheeler, the end of her podcast.
And this is going to tell you what's wrong with podcasting in general.
Tell me how you're going to make money after listening to this.
Thank you for listening.
I'm Liz Wheeler.
This is The Liz Wheeler Show.
The Liz Wheeler Show is produced by Jonathan Hay, Executive Producer, Chad Abbott, Director of Photography, Kevin McRoberts, Editor, Alejandro Figuerela, Sound Mixer, Robin Fenderson, Director of Marketing, Emily Waschler, Production and Talent Coordinator, Matt Toffler, and Senior Publicist, Patricia Jackson.
This has been a Soundfront production.
Oh my goodness.
Nine people total, including her.
Well, it's not that you don't need a lot of producers to help you create a great show.
If it's not value for value and people aren't doing this voluntarily because they take ownership of the production, which I'm sure is not the case with her podcast, then you have to pay them.
And then these people need to have a union.
And this is why you can't monetize the network.
You're going to fail.
This is new media.
New media doesn't require so much overhead.
No.
Hello.
There it is.
Hello.

Another beautiful Father's Day donation, and we thank you very much for that.
Okay, let me do a couple here.
Joshua Huffman in Blue Springs, Maryland, 333.
There's no email from him.
Do you have something?
I do not.
And if we don't have a note, and I did look, then we go to the double up.
You've got Jacqueline Young in Chucky, Tennessee, 300.
And again, here we go.
I'm donating for my husband, Kevin Kester.
This will put him overnight status and dub him as Sir Kevin Knight of the Southern Appalachian Hemp Farmers.
While calling out my brother-in-law, Phil Bentley, as a douchebag!
Which I think was kind of an interesting combo.
All right, that's a great combo.
I love... Do you know what this is?
They're probably twins.
And she's saying, this is why I married him, you loser!
Go jingle, refer to show 1432.
Okay, go jingle it is.
You've got...
This is going to be fun.
It's going to be a full roundtable today.
Rita Harrington in Sparks, Nevada.
And Rita has no note.
I've looked.
Did you find anything from Rita?
Nothing.

So Craig it is.
Another switcheroo.
These are nice.
They're very nice.
Dads love this.
Dads love this stuff.
It's better than Old Spice.
As Canadians, we have been watching our country slowly degenerate under the tyrant Trudeau and his libtards.
But the joke's on them, though, because our seething hate for their government has only brought us closer together.
Happy Father's Day, Dad, and thank you, too, for all of your superb media deconstruction jingles.
OK, we got some jingles here.
A get vaccinated.
I'm sure that's followed by a no and a Dvorak mac and cheese and a goat karma.
I think we can do that for you.
No.
You slaves can get used to mac and cheese.
Mac and cheese.
Mac and cheese.
Macaroni and cheese.
Cheddar melted together.
Mac and cheese.
Mac By the way, and to the Canadians or to the Americans who think a parliamentary system might be good, to see the drawbacks to it look no further than up north in Canada.
Right on.
And how Trudeau stays in office and nobody likes him.
Do they have ranked voting there?
No.
No.
Okay.
They have rank voting.
Yes.
No kidding.
Morgan Slagle in South Boston Virginia.
Confusing.
That's South Boston.
That's real South.
$200.33 for Father's Day.
Please de-douche my dad, Bruce.
You've been de-douched.
He hit me in the mouth a month ago after talking about y'all on our many trips back and forth.
So I love the show.
Love you, Dad.
Aww.
Sir Johnny B is in Brockport, New York.
$200.
Sir Johnny B donating as the signs were smacking me in the face.
I found Club 33.
He did.
He sent this picture.
Uh, we are having our first No Agenda Off 33 meetup July 9th in Brockport, New York.

Okay.
Onward.
Jessica Sorensen is in Montana, $200 from her, and she said she'd like the credit to go to her amazing husband, Ryan Sorensen.
Switcheroo, please give karma to all the fathers out there.
You betcha.
Ryan it is.
You've got karma.
We are the gift that keeps on giving.
That's a lot of switcheroos today, I have to say.
This was our list of Associate Executive Producers and Executive Producers for the show.
1461, I want to thank each and every one of them for making this show happen on a Father's Day, a Juneteenth, and whatever else you want to call it.
It was going to be the seventh game of the NBA Finals, but of course, Boston dropped the ball, as it were, and gave the title to the Warriors once again.
Congratulations to them.
All right.
Gee, I missed all that.
A woke warrior, by the way.
Thank you to our execs and associate executive producers.
As you just heard, these are real credits, so you can use them anywhere credits are accepted and recognized.
IMDb is certainly one.
Go ahead and take a look at what other Hollywood big wigs also have these credits.
Yeah, you can use them just to impress people or put on your LinkedIn to impress people, in a bar to impress people, or just to impress your family in case they're wondering what you're really doing with your time.
If you'd like to learn how to help us in our value for value model, go here.
And our sincere thanks for bringing the heat for 1461.
Our formula is this.
We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
Order!
Order!
Shut up, slave!
You know, I was feeling it was feeling it was time that we bring everybody who never heard I was feeling it was feeling it was time that we bring everybody who never So they understand when we're talking about Noodle Boy, what that means or what the genesis is of Noodle Boy.
Yeah.
So I'd like to, you know, we do this every year or so, let's play the Noodle Boy clip.
We do it about three times a year.
Yeah.
Now this, I have it as 2011, the original Noodle Boy clip.
Could you give us the premise?
Because this is how long this show has been tracking wokeness.
We didn't have a term for it ten years ago, when many of the very same people who are being woke right now weren't even teenagers.
Yes, this was a clip taken from a... I don't know if it was a mic or an interview or... I can't remember.
There was a protest in Seattle, I think.
Wasn't it Seattle?
Might have been Portland.
It was some woke community.
It was someone in the West Coast areas, that's for sure.
But there was a guy who worked at Noodles, Inc., which was a – I think it was the name of it.
It was a restaurant chain that served noodles.
There was one in Berkeley.
And the guy was – worked there, and he was in the – he was like a busboy or something along those lines.
And he was pontificating as to what was wrong with this place because, you know, he wasn't the boss kind of thing, which you run into occasionally with everyone.
Every generation has these people.
But this guy was the worst of the worst, the way we saw it, because of what he wanted.
It was a bunch of socialism, is what it amounted to.
And privilege.
Extreme privilege.
Yeah.
Not white privilege.
Just privilege.
Well, like I described earlier, there are two fundamental classes that are just a plain fact in society.
You either work for someone else, or you work for yourself.
And most people work for someone else in a way that they aren't free.
You don't really get to decide your work.
For example, I work at Noodles, a restaurant.
And basically, it's a dictatorship there.
We're told exactly what we're going to cook, how we're going to cook it, what time we're going to get there.
And basically, if they don't like what they're doing, they try to tell us what to do.
If we don't listen, they get rid of us.
And so, we're not able to actually cooperate in a way that we make decisions together.
I try to convince my fellow employees that we should have a union at Noodles.
So, it's a source of power to start with.
And then I think in terms of the bigger picture, when you look at revolutions, the way that you actually get rid of any sort of dictatorship is by having workers take control of the place where they work.
Would you plan your vision for noodles?
Sure.
Would it include the owner?
What capacity would he be granted?
If the owner wanted to cooperate with us as an equal, and provide his skills that he had, we would definitely cooperate with him.
We'd have to abdicate his position as being an owner and controller of us, and he would have to recognize that we run noodles together, and basically, if he doesn't want to cooperate with us, he's against us.
The owner!
He should be on equal footing!
The owner!
I mean, if he doesn't want to collaborate, then he's our enemy!
Yeah, workers control the means of production.
Very Leninist thing.
And, you know, this over the years has grown, and we went through, you know, what came in, or the bullying at school, and then there were bullying laws, and, you know, we foolishly, as an Xer and a Boomer used to say, we'll hop on the sticks and stones and break my bones, man!
And, you know, we got slapped away for that.
Shut up, Boomer!
You know what you're talking about.
It's violence, it's violence.
And so now you get hit by the pasta glock.
I'm gonna shoot you in the face with my noodle gun, you racist piece of shit.
I got my pasta glock locked and loaded.
So ten years later, I'm happy to see a recovering noodle boy, Bill Maher.
Even though it's very weird to see him still hammered down on certain topics where he just seems off the rails and illogical.
The election.
The election, yeah.
I think he's irrational.
He's irrational.
Irrational.
Um, and we actually should talk about the, I guess you saw the episode, but at the end, you know, he did his new rules or whatever.
I'm not going to, I'm just going to play 50 seconds of it.
It's an eight minute segment.
You should be watching him because he won't be on much longer.
Funny.
You think my generation is an eye roll?
I mean, they're not a little secret about the younger generations.
No one wants to hire you.
Your sense of entitlement is legendary and, with notable exceptions, your attention span and worth ethic suck.
Here's a story you never stop hearing around Hollywood.
Unqualified little shit who has been here all of six months doesn't understand why he's not a producer yet.
This Washington Post story had such resonance because its behavior we all recognize.
There is a war going on within the millennial generation.
And he's so right because we're seeing it right here.
Millennial actual producers who rightly call themselves producers of the No Agenda Show.
Tons of millennials and they're not these crazies.
So I think we need to call on the millennials to do something about their peer group.
We can't do it.
I mean, that's also, it's lame when old people tell you what to do.
Most of these generations have their peer group.
They pay more attention to them than anything else.
Now, I mean, that's what happened when, over at Mevio, when I took those and posted those videos of Eddie, remember him?
Eddie the heartthrob.
Eddie the heartthrob.
Yeah, the girls went for him, that's for sure.
His lunches consisted of Red Bull and Hot Pockets.
Yes.
And so everybody in the office was telling me, stop eating these.
This is going to make you sick, this lunch.
Great.
So I took a movie of him eating and bragging about the Red Bull and Hot Pockets lunch and posted it on YouTube.
And the feedback from his peers He changed it.
It was unbelievable.
It was like a reverse of everything.
And he never ate a Hot Pocket again, hated Red Bull, and ate salads for lunch.
But it wasn't because of anything we said.
No, no.
It had to come from the peer group.
I had to post it on YouTube to save this guy's life.
And I honestly believe I saved his life.
He still emails from time to time.
Yeah, he's a good guy.
Anyway, so that's what has to be done.
Now, as opposed to millennials not being good workers, My daughter, I think, is one of the best workers I've ever run into.
Yeah, but she's not an idiot like these.
No, she's not.
And she's not only really a good worker, she works for an operation now where she does their posters and does all these things.
However, let me ask you a question.
And this is something you should ask her because I have heard this and it seems to be rather universal with millennials, even the really good workers.
They seem to think that work no longer defines who you are.
A job is just a thing you do so you can live your life.
And I think that is prevalent amongst the entire generation.
The idea of, of course, we all know 50 years of the company, gold watch, that's not true.
But, you know, even just, just the whole, just, no, job is, it's, it's no longer a part of the fabric and they don't even care what you do for a living.
I don't think that's unique to millennials.
I was that way most of my life.
You're that way now.
You know, and the reason I say this is we had dinner with the former New York banker Friday night.
And he says... Did you go into town or did they come into town?
No, we went, we stayed over at their house.
We did one of those rich people things, you know?
Yeah, he stayed over there.
Oh, oh, banker, can I stay at your home?
Can I have a talk to you?
Can I have one martini, please?
Dry, make sure it's dry.
It's a Bollinger.
We don't drink martinis.
Actually, I took a picture of the wine.
I took a picture of the wine.
Did you have some Bollinger?
Yes.
That's his house champagne, bro.
It is!
Would you like some bubblies?
Bollinger?
He says, oh yes, you're right, spot on.
Did you know the former New York Banker is British?
Tablas Creek Vineyard?
Yeah, what about it?
2019 Moor Vedra?
That's a Texas wine, isn't it?
I don't know.
It was very good.
Yeah, Movedra, yeah.
Well, they can grow that there.
Do you think it was a Texas wine?
It might have been.
I know they grow a lot of Movedra and Tempranillo in Texas.
So this is the former New York banker.
This is how he rolls.
You know, if you want to get a Friday night dinner reservation in Austin, I don't have to tell you, you can just forget it.
You just forget it.
Um, because most, and now he's from New York, but most of the Californians, they came into Austin and they started doing the following.
They start making reservations at all the good restaurants four or five weeks in advance.
And as it comes up, they'll just cancel whatever they don't want to go to.
If it costs me 10, 20, 50 bucks, who cares?
Which of course makes it impossible to get a reservation.
So what the former New York banker did is he joined the investment group for this restaurant group, which owns several top restaurants in Austin.
And, you know, the investment, I don't know how big it is, but he gets a VIP hotline where he can call.
That was pretty sexy.
You can just call him.
Uh, no, I think, no, because you have to show your card and, you know, yeah, no, I don't think that just, you can't do that.
It's got to be you.
I don't see why not.
Now, if you come to town, we'll give it a shot.
What kind of privilege is it if you can't, like, pass it off to your friends as a comp, as a perk?
So after the Bollinger and the wine, I wrote it down.
You're living it up.
Go on.
I wrote it down.
I'll have to ask him again.
I had a beer over the weekend.
We were talking about the reverse repo market, which the last time we talked about it, it was shocking.
It's at $1 trillion.
Now it's above $2 trillion.
And he says, you know, I just want to tell you about the reverse repo market.
I know what happened.
You have to understand what's going on.
The banks are mad at the Fed.
That's why they're doing this.
And I don't remember the rest of the story.
So I'm going to have to get that from him.
I know.
I know.
Well, here's what happened.
I know what happened.
One glass of Bollinger and you're done.
That didn't help.
The reason was, as I'm listening to him, and I did, I could have closed my eyes, and all I heard was Paul Krugman.
What a nightmare!
He's like, this is not a problem.
Inflation is good because it creates wage inflation.
I'm just like, I don't know, man.
Pass the dutchie by the left hand side.
Oh yeah, Bitcoin is a scam.
He did tell me that.
I'm glad to know.
And I said, why is it?
Who's benefiting from the scam?
That is the issue.
Well, this was a big moment for me.
The New York banker, I know he doesn't like Bitcoin and he understands very well what the shitcoin meltdown is all about.
This is the DeFi crap which is all outside of Bitcoin as far as I'm concerned.
This is melting down and a lot of people are going to get hurt real bad and they deserve it because this is all crap that they think they've invested in.
With Bitcoin, I said, all right, so if it's a scam, who's benefiting?
He says, well, it's not really about that.
And now my interest peaks up.
And I'm like, oh, hold on a second.
What is the scam?
He says, countries, governments will never allow it to be used as currency.
That told me that it's not a scam.
That told me that I think the banking world is a little worried about it.
That would be a good interpretation.
I think that's valid.
That was, to me, it was like, holy crap!
You know, it's like, okay, you can't tell me who's benefiting, so maybe not a sneak.
You can call it dumb!
And there are actual countries.
I mean you want to call El Salvador.
It's a country You know it's there's a lot of issues with it, but they accept that as legal time, but that was his argument I found that to be quite telling especially in light of all the things that are going on With the other thing that will never happen central bank digital currency Yeah, here's our Our boss over there, the Federal Reserve, Jay Powell.
Looking forward, rapid changes are taking place in the global monetary system that may affect the international role of the dollar in the future.
Most major economies already have or are in the process of developing instant 24-7 payments.
Our own FedNow service will be coming online in 2023.
And in light of the tremendous growth in crypto assets and stable coins, we are examining whether a U.S.
central bank digital currency would improve upon what is an already safe and efficient domestic payment system.
As our white paper on this topic notes, a U.S.
CBDC could also potentially help maintain the dollar's international standing.
Since when does the dollar need help in international standing?
Is it in trouble?
It's growing in value by the day.
It's becoming an issue.
Ah!
Why is it an issue?
Because when our dollar becomes worth more than our exports, it costs more to buy and it kills our export market.
And it increases our import market, which is always a problem because we're taking too much shit in from China as it is.
Now we're going to get more stuff cheaper.
So what's wrong?
There's nothing wrong if you don't mind breaking the back of the whole country's manufacturing sector.
Wasn't that the point?
I don't know.
Was that the point?
Oh, I'm sure this is the point.
Of course, it's the Great Reset.
Even CNBC... Well, that's the point of the Democrats.
I know the Republicans were not pushing that.
Well, CNBC is.
Welcome, as usual, to a very busy Fed as we track this killing.
The Dow breaking below 30,000, lowest level in more than a year.
So what's ahead for Just saying.
Were you aware of a great reset?
I think listening to you, I've been more than aware and listening to the idiots at the UN.
Yeah, there's a great reset.
Well, what is this great reset?
I'm just saying.
Were you aware of a great reset?
I think listening to you, I've been more than aware of listening to the idiots at the UN.
Yeah, there's a great reset.
Well, what is this great reset?
When's it going to happen?
Give me a date.
There's no date.
It's happening in slow motion.
Although, okay, so here's what the whisper is.
There's going to be a repricing of all currencies.
There has to be some kind of equity equalization.
The rumor is that it will be gold back, which makes really only... I'm just telling you the rumor.
I don't know.
I really don't know nothing.
All I know is I like Bitcoin.
And you can laugh at that too.
Yeah, why bother?
So, you know, it's happening.
I mean, when you kick off, when you deplatform an entire country from the SWIFT payment network, there's something being reset.
You know, and I don't know if it means people go away, countries disintegrate, you know, we just don't see him anymore.
We might as well.
I mean, Russia, we, I mean, you know, there's, there's geo blocks everywhere.
You can't, you can't, you can't get to a lot of things.
You can't talk to them.
You can't, they can't pay you.
You can't pay them.
I'm not talking about for oil and stuff.
Just, you know, people use services.
I like the signage in front of the liquor store in front of a bottle of Stoli.
With a big giant yellow sign.
Made in Latvia!
Just so you know, it's good!
So it's not from Russia, even though it's Russian, you know, we won't do that.
Let's talk about a great reason.
Let's go to this.
I want to get this out of the way.
This big election, I've talked about it before.
Nobody's talking about it except some people in NPR.
And this is what's going on in Colombia.
Because Colombia is about to fall into communism.
And it's the last place you'd expect this, but let's listen to about the elections coming up in Colombia.
And you're going to start hearing, you know, this kind of socialist beliefs.
Actually, before we play these clips, I want to play this.
This is a clip about poverty in the United States.
This is a point of view clip.
This is a poverty clip with government kicker on NPR.
Large numbers of people from around the country gathered in Washington today calling for more policies to aid poor people and low-wage workers.
As Ryan Bank of Member Station WAMU reports, many of the attendees and the organizers have experienced poverty themselves.
The Poor People's and Low-Wage Workers' Assembly was organized by the Poor People's Campaign, a revival of the movement started by Martin Luther King Jr.
before his death in 1968.
Attendees and organizers like Ashley Marshall say there is still a long way to go before poverty is eradicated.
Marshall says the issue hits close to home.
I'm still living it, and at the end of the day, our brothers, our sisters, our moms, our dads, we all deserve to live and thrive in this country, and we just need our government to create policies to make that happen.
This is the socialist ideal, which is the government does everything, and we've seen this creeping into everything.
Before... Oh, the government needs... Oh, there's a garbage in front of my... There's a bunch of paper in front of my house.
Where's the government?
How come they're not coming and cleaning it?
So here we go to Columbia.
Can I just say... No, I'll bring it back.
I'll bring it back.
Go ahead.
I was going to talk about... Let's go to Columbia and listen to this because you're going to start hearing the same kind of things from the socialist candidate in Columbia.
And this is really, this has been sneaking up on us and we've always got to fight it because it never ends well.
So this Columbia election is socialist.
Columbians will go to the polls tomorrow in the final round of a presidential election that's had many surprises.
There are two anti-establishment candidates on the ballot, a senator and former guerrilla rebel, Gustavo Petro, and a former mayor and businessman-turned-populist, Rodolfo Hernández.
Reporter Manuel Rueda is in Bogotá, and he joins us now.
Welcome.
Thank you.
Because of these two candidates, this has been described as an historic election in Colombia.
Why is it different from previous presidential elections?
Well, the thing that's unique about this election is that none of the traditional political parties that have been ruling Colombia for decades is participating.
I mean, they had a candidate that they supported in the first round of the election, but he didn't make the threshold to participate in the second round.
So now we are basically left with a Two different kinds of outsiders, you could say, that don't belong to the traditional political parties.
Well, tell us a little bit about each of the candidates.
Let's start with Gustavo Petro, the leftist candidate.
Well, Petro's been in politics for four decades.
He started his career as a member of a rebel group known as the M19 movement.
And that group made peace with the government in 1991.
And since then, Petro's been in all the government positions you can imagine, congressman, senator, mayor of Bogota.
And his platform is pretty much based on decreasing social and economic inequalities.
And what he believes is that the state can play a big role in decreasing those inequalities.
So he wants to increase taxes on corporations, raise import duties on food that can be produced in Colombia to give local farmers an advantage.
So in one way, it's quite a traditional kind of left-wing platform that he's running on.
Yeah.
Well, what does that sound like?
Sounds like every country in the world now.
That's the point.
Yeah.
Which is that this split that that idiot judge was talking about saying, you know, Republicans are a bunch of bad people.
The split that's in this country is exactly the same as every place else.
It's the same in the Netherlands.
It's the same in the UK.
It's all the same.
Yeah.
This is a big, it's a big split.
And it's all, and the one side is the one reflected by that poverty union saying that, you know, we want the government to do all this, everything for us.
We deserve it.
And, uh, I think is a very popular, I think this is election is interesting because it's going to, the way it goes in South America, they always go socialist when they can.
And I think that's, what's going to happen in Columbia.
This is the part two and they talk about the other guy.
I understand.
He's also been very critical of the drug war and the Colombian military.
Yes, absolutely.
He's described sort of the US-led war on drugs as a failure.
And so what you might see with Petro's president is a higher focus on investing in rural areas to give the farmers their alternatives to growing these illegals in these isolated rural areas.
Well, tell us about Rodolfo Hernández.
He's been described as a right-wing populist, similar in style to Donald Trump.
Is that a fair characterization?
Well, I think in terms of character, he's somewhat similar to Trump.
You know, he said lots of off-the-cuff statements that are offensive to different groups of the population.
So for example, you know, in an interview last week, he said that he would prefer that women stay at home and take care of the children, but that this can't happen because the economy is in such bad shape.
He's similar to Trump, but he's different in that he's coming to this election.
On his own, without the support of a major political party, based on a very anti-corruption message.
You know, his platform is basically, let's go after corruption.
What he believes is that there's enough money in the States to take care of social problems, as long as waste and corruption are reduced.
Is there a clear favorite?
There's not a clear favorite.
In most polls, both candidates are within one percentage point of each other.
And the problem in Colombia is that you can only publish polls until one week prior to the election.
So it's going to be a very tight election, which might generate some problems if one of the candidates doesn't accept the results.
Like the Trump guy.
Right.
So let's, I have some, some stuff to share about this thinking the government will fix it.
First of all, I grew up in a country where this was the culture and to this day still is the culture and it's only gotten worse.
Yep.
In the Netherlands.
It's like, uh, you know, and, and, and the, you got, it's your right, man.
It's your right.
CNBC published an interesting article yesterday.
Pandemic-era checks, that's the stimmy checks, rewired how these Americans see money.
Quote, stimulus changed how I think about what's possible.
Key points.
Pandemic-era stimulus checks help many Americans pay bills, reduce debt, and build savings.
For some, the payments altered how they think about money.
The stimulus changed how I think about what's possible, personal spending habits, and the way in which I manage my money, says Denise Diaz, a recipient who lives outside of Orlando, Florida.
And then this whole article is showing that people have seen that clearly governments can step in and fix something.
I know that they don't understand the fiat or central banking money system or how it really works.
You know, there's probably more just slogans and talking points, but ultimately they got checks and they got good checks.
And certainly people who had multiple children's running around got really nice checks.
Some of them, you know, 10 grand.
You know, because you got money for every single child and so this really changed the way people think.
And it makes nothing but sense then that this report from the Washington Post comes out that the White House has been working on gas rebate cards to hand out to people And they can't make them.
They can't do this with the typical debit card or, you know, which is, I guess, probably out of them is what's happening.
There's no chip.
There's chip shortages.
So the little debit card chip, there's not enough of those, probably because they gave them all to illegal immigrants coming in.
So they're working now on how they can use their emergency powers to alleviate the energy costs.
That people are experiencing right now, which is exactly what today's young working class person would expect from their government.
Well, I mean, it was COVID.
We got paid.
You know, look at this man.
That's Putin.
You know, it was all Putin's price hike.
So, you know, we should probably get paid.
And they're working on it.
And this is a dramatic shift for America.
Dramatic shift!
And it's only going to get worse?
The fuel?
It's like one thing after another.
This is the latest that's going to be great for energy costs in America.
This is for your electricity.
A massive cleanup effort continues today after at least 20 cars from a coal train ran off the rails yesterday evening near Lawrence.
Authorities say the derailment happened near North 1900 Road.
Large amounts of coal spilled across the area, but fortunately no one was hurt.
North 1900 Road remains shut down near the crossing as an investigation continues.
Did you see this?
This coal train?
No, I missed this completely.
Oh my goodness, it's a mess!
I look at that, just to do a quick bing it.
Uh, coal train Kansas derailed.
I mean, it's, it must be 15, 20 cars filled with coal have derailed their, uh, perpendicular, their, you know, perpendicular.
So they're, they're sideways on the tracks.
All the coal is spilled out and it could take a while to clean up.
And that of course will slow down other things that need to be transported by rail, uh, such as.
a very important uh feed for um uh for the chickens let me see it's the uh mess uh who was this uh california feed and poultry producer who was this again this is from trains.com you should definitely look at trains.com california feed and poultry producer seeks emergency order due to union pacific service failures this is the same thing we heard from the
The DEF guy, not DEF as in can't hear, but the diesel engine fuel, whatever that is.
The additive.
A lot of coal on the ground here.
Yes.
Union Pacific says it's working to improve service to foster farms who asked regulators to deny their emergency service order.
This is what they said.
And this is a common carrier as you pointed out.
They're screwing everybody.
And I don't understand.
We got a letter from a guy that works at Union Pacific.
And he goes on about how they, a lot of this has to do with it because Union Pacific was the companies that fired a bunch of people because they wouldn't get the jab.
Right.
Which is very common in every industry because the shot seems to be some sort of a, you know.
Look at your airline.
Look at your airline cancellations.
Same issue.
One thing after another because they wouldn't get the jabs.
And so they didn't get these guys rehired and there's a shortage of people.
And he says one of the real problems is that some of the people that are still working there are the people, the newbies that they brought in because they did hire people, don't know how to organize a train properly.
Because they derail if you don't set them up where you got the right number of engines and the engines in the middle, engines at the back.
You know, you got to know how to do this.
And I'm looking at this coal thing and looking at Union, there's BNSF the one I'm looking at, but I guess it was Union Pacific.
This is what it was.
Somebody put this train together that was incompetent and the thing just fell off the tracks because according to this guy who works there, it's not that, it's non-trivial.
No, it's the same as flying an airplane.
It's non-trivial, but if you fire all the good guys... Yeah.
...bad things might happen.
Well, that's what they did.
This is management, modern management.
So this is hurting farmers, and farmers are speaking up everywhere.
Here's a farmer on TikTok desperately trying to explain what is happening.
So I got in a conversation today and the woman honestly, bless her heart, honestly thinks that food prices are not going to go up.
She thinks that this is the highest they're going to go.
I tried to explain to her that that was not the case, that they're absolutely going to go up even more.
Um, and I told her there are things that, like, we have to buy.
There's something we had to buy that two years ago cost us $24.
Last year was about $46.
This year it is costing us $96, okay?
Local farmer, 50 head of cattle.
It's costing him $8,000 a month to feed them.
Please understand, food prices are going to go up.
You want to act like it's the farmer's fault?
It is not the farmer's fault.
We're barely making it to grow the stuff so you guys are able to get it in August, September, October.
Okay?
Guys, this is not going away.
Stop sticking your head in the sand and thinking, oh, it's going to be okay.
It's not going to fucking be okay.
Whoa.
Okay.
Yes, she's mad.
She's mad and rightly so.
Now, here's how misguided we are as a country, as a people, as a generation, maybe.
How do we help the farmers?
Now we know the farmers are in trouble because of the fertilizer crisis.
All part of the energy and the petroleum crisis.
All part of inflation.
All part of all of these issues.
It's all Putin's fault.
Just remember that.
So what do people come up with?
Oh, we have to do something to help the farmers.
So now we introduce the pea cyclers.
Yes, this is people who, and of course, human urine has properties that will work very well as fertilizer.
But to think that we're all going to sing Kumbaya, get together and pee in buckets and it's going to work and we're going to save our food supply?
What do they teach people in school?
People have no idea where their food comes from.
They don't know!
And there's also a severe lack of knowledge of history of food being used as a control mechanism.
And yes, I do think there's evil in our government, and I do think that food shortages will be used to control us.
And the United States itself has a history which I was unaware of.
And this is the 1872 slaughter of the buffalo.
And I'm bringing this up because of all the dead cattle that are popping up because of the extreme heat.
It's sudden cattle death syndrome.
Have you ever heard of this?
The slaughter of the buffalo?
Yeah.
I'd never heard of this.
I think they almost wiped the buffalo out.
No, in fact, they didn't.
In fact, from between 1872 and 1873, over 3 million buffalo were killed.
I'm reading from an article here.
The reason was purely economic, but the result was to destroy the basis of the way of life of the peoples, the Indians, who inhabited the area where the annihilation took place, the Southern Plains.
It had zero influence.
Nothing, nothing changed.
They couldn't kill enough.
In fact, this is where Buffalo Bill gets his name.
William F. Cody.
He's shooting buffalo.
Yeah!
4,862 buffalo he shot in eight months.
He got the nickname Buffalo Bill, but even he could hardly have made any noticeable difference in their numbers.
Now, that's when they had, you know, single-shot rifles and didn't have cool chemicals and weather modification and other things.
So, food is often used as a control mechanism, and I'm worried that that's going to happen to us.
And Austin is all in!
Peanut butter chocolate banana, made with crickets.
Crickets.
What do the crickets do for me?
Well, crickets are 65% protein by weight.
Crickets contain all nine essential amino acids.
And each bar saves 140 gallons of water compared to whey protein.
Okay, so how are these prepared?
They are dehydrated and blended into powder and made into a protein bar.
How many grams of sugar?
It's nine grams of sugar and it is date sweetened.
And due to their high potassium content, they slower the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream.
That's great, I'm diabetic so that helps.
We just launched on Monday.
We're a local small business right here in Austin.
I would totally buy this.
Stay in Austin.
I would totally buy it.
I would totally buy this because, you know, it's protein, it's crackers, and I'm really called it Bogs Bound.
Let's go back to 1979.
Does this sound familiar?
Moreover, I will soon submit legislation to Congress, calling for the creation of this nation's first solar bank.
The Windfall Profits Act.
Sounds eerily similar to what's going on right now.
2000 these efforts will cost money a lot of money and that is why congress must enact the windfall profits tax without delay the windfall profits act sounds eerily similar to what's going on right now this was to punish oil companies punish them because they were jacking up the prices uh you know They were screwing the American people with their high oil prices.
It had nothing to do with inflation or anything like that.
We need to set up a fund.
It's going to cost a lot of money to transition so we can get away from these horrible people.
And I guess that thing sunset, I guess it went away eventually, because yeah, the crude oil windfall profit tax of 1980.
So isn't that, isn't what they're doing just same old price control that Carter was doing?
This is, well, I think everything we've said about This decade and the 70s being the same thing has been proven time and time again, so why not?
Well, and here's the final one, and I'll shut up about it, because this obviously ties right into climate change.
We could have known it.
Time magazine, time.com, published two days ago.
How to stop our food from hurting the planet.
You see, it's not us anymore, John.
It's our food.
I'll only read three paragraphs.
Farmers have grown food in roughly the same way for thousands of years!
Planting seeds, watching them grow, raising animals from birth to slaughter, hoping, hoping, that nature provides them the right amounts of rain and sun.
That sounds right, and it sounds romantic, and I like how that sounds.
Now entrepreneurs say they have a better idea.
Agri... Bugs!
No punchlines, okay?
Agriculture in its current form is bad for the planet, they say.
Fields for crops and animals grazing occupy land where trees could be planted.
And farming sucks up vast amounts of increasingly precious water.
Why not make food in a completely different way?
Growing lettuce in skyscrapers and creating meat from cells in a Petri dish.
Well, this is good news according to Time magazine.
Petri dish meat.
Exactly.
And skyscraper lettuce.
Is that too long for a title?
Skyscraper lettuce?
Yeah, I think so.
Petri dish meat.
Lettuce prey would be better.
You know, for years and years and years on this show, you know, I'll bring up stuff and you roll your eyes and it's appropriate.
I do.
And I think, I think we may be getting down to some brass tacks finally.
I think some of this stuff's finally going to happen.
Well, here's your climate, uh, here's another, here's my climate story.
It's not the same, but it's similar, but it's, it's dumber.
Well, they're all dumb, but here we go with climate.
There's sriracha pepper.
Fans of sriracha, grab a tissue because you may be about to start crying.
And not from the hot sauce.
The beloved condiment is now in short supply.
Usually I bought one case roughly around $30 to $32.
Now up to $50 now.
Almost double price.
It keeps going up.
We cannot afford, you know.
That's Michael Chow, co-owner of the restaurant Faviette here in Washington, D.C., talking about his sriracha orders.
Probably we'll have to switch to a different brand, yeah.
But people, they're used to the taste right now, so when they taste, they know right away.
It's not just restaurants paying higher prices.
Grocery stores in some parts of the country have also been running low on stock.
The company that makes sriracha is Hoi Fong Foods, and they alerted customers in late April that they'll have to stop making the sauce for a few months due to, quote, severe weather conditions affecting the quality of chili peppers.
Guillermo Morey Tortorolo studies climate and ecosystems at the National Autonomous University of Mexico.
Sriracha is actually made from a very special type of pepper that grows only in northern Mexico and southern U.S.
These red jalapeños are only grown during the first four months of the year.
And they need very controlled conditions, particularly constant irrigation.
And irrigation, of course, requires lots of water.
But northern Mexico is in its second year of a drought.
The already difficult conditions were pushed over the limit by two consecutive La Niña events.
And the dry season has not only been intense, but also remarkably long.
As a result, the spring chili harvest was almost non-existent this year.
Morey Tortorolo thinks it's very likely that climate change is a factor.
Of course.
By the way, just a comment on that story where the guy says, you know, we're talking about the rooster brand sriracha, the American stuff they made in Southern California, I believe.
And that used to be made from serrano peppers, red serranos.
And the demand was so high for it that they switched to the red jalapenos, which is just a ripe jalapeno.
Right.
And nobody bitched about it?
I mean, I noticed it right away when they made the switchover.
I said, you know, this is not quite as hot as I remember.
You're a connoisseur.
Well, but the point is that nobody notices.
Yeah, well, this is NPR.
Still rad.
This is NPR, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, what they're doing is they're distracting you with stupid stories like this.
And then you're, oh, like, oh, the sriracha is no good.
What are we going to do with the sriracha?
Oh, my climate change is going to... And then meanwhile, one day you get the knock at the door and it's like, it's time for you to eat bugs.
There's no more food.
They're not even going to give you bugs, people.
They're going to slide larvae under your door.
Larvae?
Yeah.
Grow them.
Grow these.
Now, before we take our break, which we're about to do, I do want to get the COVID stories out of the way, because a big deal happened this week.
Yes.
Yes, a big deal did indeed.
Okay.
And I only have two clips that cover it, and these are the ones that say COVID vaccination for kids and then L-O-N-I-G, I think, or something like that.
Uh, start with that one, then there's part two of this, and this pretty much summarizes everything and has all the dimwits in there that you want to hear from.
It's been a long wait, but parents of very young children will finally get to start vaccinating their kids against COVID-19.
The first vaccines for children younger than five today got a thumbs up.
Who, who was clapping?
What was that small group of?
Oh, I sweetened the clip.
Oh.
First vaccines for children younger than five today got a thumbs up from regulators.
NPR health correspondent Rob Stein joins us now to tell us more.
Hi Rob.
Hey Adrian.
Hey!
Rob, this is something that a lot of parents have been anxiously eagerly awaiting for a very long time.
So what happened today?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So, a key advisory committee to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention voted unanimously to recommend babies, toddlers, and preschoolers get one of two vaccines.
These were vaccines that were finally authorized by the Food and Drug Administration.
Holy crap!
Is this guy an NPR reporter?
Yes, he's the science correspondent.
I don't want to make fun of somebody, but when you talk like that, you shouldn't be on the radio.
It's great.
These are vaccines that were finally authorized by the Food and Drug Administration earlier this week, and CDC Director Rochelle Walensky immediately endorsed that recommendation.
Yeah, yeah.
And that is the final step in what has been a long, frustrating process, frustrating for parents, the companies, regulators, in clearing the vaccines.
Here's how Dr. Adam Ratner from New York University reacted.
He's speaking on behalf of the American Academy of Pediatrics.
I am tremendously excited.
This is a day that a lot of us have been waiting for since the very beginning of the pandemic.
It has taken a long time, but we're finally at the point where we can give vaccine protection to the youngest children.
Do I get to say something here?
You can say anything you want.
The reason they need this for the kids under five, from six months and older.
I know exactly where you're going and you're dead right.
Is it puts it on the schedule and they get even more protection.
Oh, that's right.
They get protection.
They also get more money.
They get more money, but it's more protection.
The liability once it's on the vaccine schedule is where you want to be.
This is not Cominarty, by the way.
This is still the Emergency Use Authorization.
It's still Emergency Youth Day.
After all these years.
It's the emergency youth, I tell ya!
It's the emergency youth!
If they keep vaccinating these children, we'll need some emergency youth!
Crapacola!
And they have no data, John!
They have no data!
I know.
In fact, I wish I had the Ron Paul clip.
I have the Ron Paul clip!
Well, you want to play part two of this and then play the Ron Paul clips?
Well, yeah.
Well, there's some other things we got to play, but let's hit this first.
So Adrian, these are low dose pediatric versions of Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech vaccines that can now be given to kids as young as six months old.
You said, Rob, that this was a unanimous decision today.
So why did all of this take so long?
Yeah, that's a good question.
Well, the big problem was coming up with the right dose.
A dose that would stimulate the immune system enough, but also be safe.
And the companies finally did it.
All the evidence indicates that the vaccines are very safe for these littlest kids and should help protect them from getting seriously ill.
Wait, but they don't have any extra, they didn't test on any babies, did they?
But you know, that's based primarily on how the immune systems of little kids in company studies responded to the shots, which looks good, but there still really isn't enough data yet to get a clear sense of just how strong the protection from the vaccines will be.
Especially against Omicron and how long that protection will last.
Shoot him up more!
That said, the committee members concluded whatever benefits the vaccines might provide was crucial, even though COVID may not pose as much of a threat to most kids as it does to adults.
Here's Dr. Beth Bell from the University of Washington at the end of the two-day meeting.
Yes, we don't know everything that there is to be known about this.
Yes, the data may change, but we have a bottom line here, which is that this infection kills children, and we have an opportunity to prevent that.
Assuming enough, parents are willing to get their littlest kids vaccinated now.
These people are creepy.
I'm sorry.
I mean, anyone wants to take a vaccine, you're an adult, do whatever you want to do.
You're talking six months old.
None of our business.
Six months old.
The one that gets me, and I don't have, I don't think I have that clip, but time after time, you keep hearing that, oh, if you just got COVID, you just ended the disease, now is the time to get the vaccine to double your protection.
Have you heard this?
No, it sounds like buying the dip.
That's exactly what it is.
Buy the vaccine dip.
Yeah, buy the vaccine dip.
It would have to be a dip to believe that.
Uh-huh.
You have another one here, another clip I see.
Yeah, this is the original short report, which has a woman going on and on about how relieved she is that she can give her little baby the shot.
The CDC today signed off on two COVID vaccines for children ages six months through five years.
That's the last group without access to the shots.
That means parents should be able to get their children vaccinated with Moderna or Pfizer starting next week.
Ashton Edwards says she'll feel more comfortable once she can get her youngest child the extra layer of protection from a vaccine.
I think it would mean a lot.
It would make me feel more comfortable with sending them to daycare.
Millions of doses have been ordered for distribution to doctors, hospitals, and community health clinics around the country.
The CDC is continuing to urge parents to get all children, including those who've already had COVID-19, vaccinated.
Alright, I have a couple things here.
First, I think what is happening, everyone is so tired of this, that the people who are completely against pretty much every measure the governments have taken, I say governments, including vaccination, and I include myself in that, I'm done, I don't care what you throw at me, monkey pox, it's fine, you know, it's like, I went to the sauna, I'm still okay, I don't care.
I'm not interested.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la.
The same goes for the people who are all in by into the safe and effectiveness.
They are also no longer listening to any reason, any rationale.
They're also la, la.
So it's cognitive dissonance on both sides.
Everyone's off in there.
And I think it's binary.
Again, it's pretty binary.
Either you believe it all or you're against it all.
But the cognitive dissonance, I think this is a perfect example of it, is this FDA doctor, Peter Marks, and he will recognize that there is an increase of myocarditis in children But just listen to, I think this is cognitive dissonance because he believes completely in the magical powers of this vaccine.
I sure hope they've tested it of interaction with any of the other 60 vaccines on the schedule.
I'm sure they've had plenty of time to test all that.
Listen to his thinking.
There are data on the incidence of myocarditis in this age range, and I can pull that out.
But this is a known phenomena in the 12 to 17-year-old age range.
The rate that it was seen in the 12 to 17-year-olds who were vaccinated seemed to be about five-fold higher than the baseline rate that we would expect.
And that's why this is not a slam dunk.
It's not like this is Unlike the thrombosis, remember that with the J&J vaccine, there was the thrombosis thrombocytopenia syndrome.
There, in the absence of getting vaccinated, the chance of having that was vanishingly small.
Zero, basically.
So there, anything you saw, you knew was real.
Here, it's very challenging when something's only three to five times more Common in a vaccinated population.
You don't know whether it's just cases that have kind of cases that would have been there that aren't really associated with the vaccine that have come up or how much actually the vaccine has increased that risk.
I'm not denying, by the way, I just so that there's no one I'm not trying to deny that there's some signal here.
I'm just trying to say is the magnitude of this Over what we might be seeing as baseline summertime viral myocarditis, it's hard to know exactly.
But just to give you an idea of the order of magnitude, we're seeing about five-fold more than you might expect if this were normal summertime.
In what world of medicine is an adverse event from vaccination three to five times higher than the baseline than what he calls summer viral myocarditis?
In what world is that not earth-shattering?
That's a 300 to 500 percent increase.
Is that not cognitive dissonance?
I don't think... Well, it doesn't matter.
Is it insane?
There you go.
Thank you.
I think you're getting closer to it.
That just baffles me!
Baffles me!
How can you be like that?
Hey!
You know, there's data!
Alright, here's the Rand Paul clip.
I presume this is about the royalties, that's the one you're talking about?
Yeah, well, no, there's a bunch of stuff, but that Royalty One is good.
I like it.
The Royalty One, I think, is the one that we want to play because this is something we've been talking about for... since 2012, when we started covering vaccines.
Yes, we've been talking about this since day one.
And, you know, let's give people who aren't sick medication and charge them a lot and have no liability for it whatsoever, indemnification for all.
One of the deals is that if you participate with the CDC, FDA or anywhere in government which results in a pharmaceutical product that is then subsequently approved by the FDA, then you get written up as a co-inventor and you get royalties from that.
What's interesting is that these royalties, it's always been poo-poo and like, you know, and hey, how can you get the best people in the world working on it if they can't make any money?
Well, it's called government.
That's people who serve the people.
But no, okay.
So this whole industry has been captured.
And what Rand Paul was trying to get to with this questioning of Anthony Fauci, the two-time COVID survivor, Another question for you.
Do these very same people also approve new products?
You know, the ones who get the royalties. - Another question for you.
The NIH continues to refuse to voluntarily divulge the names of scientists who receive royalties and from which companies.
Over the period of time from 2010 to 2016, 27,000 royalty payments were paid to 1,800 NIH employees.
We know that, not because you told us, but because we forced you to tell us through the Freedom of Information Act.
Over $193 million was given to these 1,800 employees.
Can you tell me that you have not received a royalty from any entity that you ever oversaw the distribution of money in research grants?
Well, first of all, let's talk about royalties.
That's the question.
No, that's the question.
Have you ever received a royalty payment from a company that you later oversaw money going to that company?
You know, I don't know is a fact, but I doubt it.
Well, here's the thing is, why don't you let us know?
Why don't you reveal how much you've gotten and from what entities?
The NIH refuses.
Look, we ask them.
We ask them.
The NIH, we ask them whether or not who got it and how much.
They refuse to tell us.
They send it redacted.
Here's what I want to know.
It's not just about you.
Everybody on the Vaccine Committee, have any of them ever received money from the people who make vaccines?
Can you tell me that?
Can you tell me if anybody on the vaccine approval committees ever received any money from people with the vaccine?
Are you going to let me answer a question?
Sounds like, number one, are you going to let me answer a question?
Okay, so let me give you some information.
First of all, according to the regulations, people who receive royalties are not required to divulge them, even on their financial statement, according to the Bayh-Dole Act.
So let me give you some example.
from 2015 to 2020, the only royalties I have was my lab and I made a monoclonal antibody for use in vitro reagent that had nothing to do with patients.
And during that period of time, my royalties range from $21 a year to $700 a year, and the average per year Was $191.46.
It's all redacted and you can't get any information on the 1800 scientists.
Senator Paul, your time is long over expired.
Senator Paul, your time is long over expired.
I gave you an additional two and a half minutes.
The witness has responded.
We are going to move on.
Senator Sanders.
So what I find interesting is not only that, you know, there's this regulation.
Have you familiar with that act?
Was it the Bayh-Dole Act?
No, but that act should be repealed.
Yeah, it sounded like the Bayh-Dole Act.
It's a conflict of interest.
Hello, conflict of interest.
This is like Mary Cheney.
What's her name?
Liz.
Mary Cheney on the...
On that stupid committee.
It's a conflict of interest.
She hates Trump.
She hates the Republican Party as it now exists.
She shouldn't be on there.
She's not a Republican.
Beyond that, the arrogance of Fauci to say, well, it wasn't a lot of money.
What the hell?
Oh, I stole some money, but it wasn't a lot.
Come on.
It's a misdemeanor.
I didn't steal a lot.
It's the same thing.
These people are really dangerous.
Well, they've got their hand in the till.
That's the problem.
It's called Capture.
It's called.
And, you know, even Bill Maher couldn't get to it.
It was a great show.
I really enjoyed that last night.
He had a couple in a row.
He's had a few good ones.
He had the guy on Danny.
Stoner was his name?
Tillington?
He's been a big writer of movies and a very successful one, I should say.
And he also, I think, produced and directed the Dopesick with Michael Keaton.
And so, and there's Bill Maher literally saying, well, you know, that we can't trust this industry.
You can't trust the big pharmaceuticals.
They marketed all this stuff and they, you know, they were killing people and now we're stuck with this huge problem.
And he can't make the leap to the vaccines!
He can't make it!
He can't see it!
It's at least a possibility!
No, DeMar's got a roadblock in front of his own ability to do, uh... You know what we call that?
You know what we say?
He's got a big plank in front of his head.
You've been bought for your corp.
Another Dutch, uh... That's a good one.
I'm gonna show my smould by donating to No Agenda.
Imagine all the people who could do that.
Oh yeah, that'd be fab.
Yeah, on No Agenda!
And we do have a few people to thank, and I want to mention there's some names that we won't mention under $50 today because it's thanking their father.
There's only one of them.
But there's a second one here that I noticed that it's not on the list for birthdays, and I would hope that you'd scroll down and pick it off.
It's for Mary Catherine in Beacon Falls.
She should be on the birthday list, and I don't think she is.
I will make sure she's on right now.
And so let's start by thanking a few people who helped us out on show 1461, starting with James Scott.
And he's in Parlin, New Jersey.
And he is, and if you follow along after you put her name on, you can see if there's any shout outs to dad.
Yeah, hold on, hold on, I mean, now you're asking me to do all the back office work.
It's a lot, it's a lot of work, you know?
I can do it at the beginning, but you can do it after I'm done.
James Scott in just Harlem, New Jersey.
And he, uh, has a de-douching he needs.
You've been de-douched.
I got five arms, luckily, so.
Yeah, they do it for Anthony M and Carrie Brillante, and credit, this donation is from Sir R. Daniels, and there's also a meetup report involved.
Yes.
Anna Biscontini in, or Biscontine, in Port Bryan, Illinois, $100, and she's donating on behalf of her sister Jill, and there's a happy birthday call out for her coming.
Terry Wentz in Langley, Washington.
Langley, Washington.
$100.
Greg Hudson.
By the way, Terry sent in a gorgeous owl card.
Thank you for that.
It's gorgeous.
It's an owl.
It's a pop-up card with an owl on it.
It's a gorgeous card!
Greg Hudson in Newport, North Carolina.
$90.
Yeah, we need to read this one, which I will do.
Because this is one of those examples.
After six years of the $4 per show sustaining donation subscription, this $90 donation I make today will earn me a knighthood!
I've been listening to Noah's Agenda since the very beginning as I followed John around the internet through his many transitions.
Yes, he's very trans.
It has kept me sane in the face of the constant disinfo pushed by the M5M.
I live near Moorhead City, North Carolina, on the sound side of the outer banks that we call the inner banks here, and momicked Momict is a local word for messed up, to put it politely.
Therefore, I'd like to be known as Greg the Momict Knight of the Inner Banks.
If the locals wish to find me, tell them to look for the little blue Honda with the huge No Agenda sticker on the back.
At the round table, I'd like to be served North Carolina barbecue.
It's the best in the country, he says, and a Guinness.
And we appreciate it.
Thank you so much.
You're on the list with your barbecue.
It's interesting that he would say that because North Carolina has four, some people think five, distinct types of barbecue and he didn't define which one it was.
East, West, so we'll just call it North Carolina.
I'm just going to throw that in there.
Thank you.
Agency is up.

This is Sir Brian of London, but I'm not in Israel and I'm not in London.
I'm gonna be in France and I'm inviting all No Agenda producers to a meet-up on Sunday, the 26th of June at 7.30 p.m.
On a yacht.
Definitely not a Russian oligarch's yacht, but a 24 meter catamaran.
Parked in Cap d'Ag in the south of France, somewhere near Montpellier.
Find it on No Agenda Meetups, and I look forward to seeing any and all No Agenda producers.
That sounds like a fun meetup.
I'd go to that.
On a catamaran?
Yeah, so he's been sailing that thing around.
I'm not sure where he's going to, but south of France doesn't suck if you've got a boat and you can hang out on it.
Hey, these are just some of the... It's the perfect time of year.
It is.
These are just some of the No Agenda meetups.
I'm looking at the list.
It's way too long to go through.
That's why we have noagendameetups.com.
You go there, you can search by location, you can see what's coming up.
I think you can go to reports, all kinds of things.
It's beautiful.
We appreciate the work that Sir Daniel does on that and Mimi, of course, and everyone who is really organizing these producer Organized meetups.
We just report them.
We're so happy people are doing this.
This is where you get community.
This is where you get to hang out without any triggering.
Doesn't matter who you are or where you come from.
There's always love in the No Agenda Meetups.
Go to noagendameetups.com.
If you can't find one, start one yourself.
Sometimes you want to go hang out with all the nights and days.
You want to be where you want to be.
Triggered on hell's a flame.
You want to be where everybody feels the same.
It's like a party.
It's like a party, yo.
you.
Ooh, okay.
Alert the affiliates.
We're a little later than expected today.
We've gone over time.
Let's do your ISOs.
What you got?
What do you got?
Oh, I got a bunch.
You want me to do mine first?
Yeah, I love it.
You must be certain of your choices then.
No, actually mine are just the kind of almost evergreen classics that would work in the middle all the time if you don't have anything good.
Okay, I'll do these like... Remember the old jingle demo packages where they'd send you a demonstration?
Here at Pepper Tanner, we have the best jingles for your hot contemporary format.
Here are some ISOs you could use during your show.
Cut one.
Okay, not bad, right?
No.
Cut 2.
You'd die too.
No.
Cut 3.
You'd absolutely die too.
Cut 4.
Pull the curtains apart.
Cut 5.
They're a bunch of crazy freaks.
I had to go back to the well.
Cut 6.
They're crazy people.
Okay, that's what I got.
I think you liked the first one the best, but what do you have?
Okay, well, I have ones that are actual in the show.
Oh, okay.
Mine's no good now.
Now I'm like... No, yours are good.
In fact, the first one may beat these.
Yeah, may beat you.
Yeah.
Let's go with what I got here.
I got two of them.
And they're legit.
They're not from the well.
I got thank you.
Thank you for listening.
Okay, that's good.
And then feelings.
I have feelings.
Wow.
I don't know, man.
I think... I have feelings.
No, I think feelings wins.
Yeah, I think it might be the better one.
And it's because my end of show basically should be a start of show.
Right.
That's how those typically work.
We usually use you doing that.
And it's good.
Who is that?
Is that Sophia with a PH?
No, no, this is right off of NPR.
Oh, NPR.
Go NPR.
Okay, um...
We should probably wrap this up.
I'm trying to think if there's anything.
We didn't talk about the war.
Go figure.
We can move the war to Thursday.
The war can wait for us.
Which confirms what they say in one of my clips, which is people are losing interest in this war and it's causing a problem.
Well, we're about to get really Interested in it as they're now negotiating behind closed doors the National Defense Authorization Act.
It's one of our favorites to look at.
And it's already, it was already at an eye-popping $850 billion in the back door and the back room negotiations in the Senate.
They have already added $45 billion to that, so we're looking at almost a trillion dollars to the military-industrial complex.
Right.
Does this sound right to anybody?
And if it goes to protect us, it goes to people's pockets.
Yes, yes!
Does any of this disturb anybody?
I know the answer, don't answer it.
That's my parting shot.
You got anything to leave us with?
I'm good.
Okay.
Thank you all trolls for hanging out with us.
Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there.
You're more important than you think.
Even if you're not in the home, call up your kid, you deadbeat.
And if you're a kid, call up your dad.
Or at least make a gif for him.
Dads love that shit.
We do.
The gif is cute.
Then and now.
No, I like that.
The problem is the kid always looks dynamite and you look old.
Old AF.
Or donate.
Dads like delayed Father's Day gifts too.

Dr. Fauci, the government recommends everybody take a booster over age 5.
Are you aware of any studies that show reduction in hospitalization or death for children who take a booster?
That the optimal degree of protection when you get infection is to get vaccinated after infection.

There are no studies on children showing a reduction in hospitalization or death with taking a booster.
That the optimal degree of protection when you get infection is to get vaccinated after infection.
What is the chance that my child's going to the hospital or dying?
Over $193 million was given to these 1,800 employees.
When critics finally complained, it was finally included because there was no health benefit from taking a booster between the 1849 and the CDC study.
Bye.
Here's what I want to know.
It's not just about you.
Everybody on the vaccine committee, have any of them ever received money from the people who make vaccines?

Look how he's delivering for the American public.
I don't want to hear anymore of these lies about reckless spending.
You know, Putin's price hike, inflation, coming out of a once-in-a-generation It's insulting to the average citizen to listen to some of this drivel coming out of the White House.
Because if you can't trust the country's government, why should you trust its money?
President Biden today announced another billion dollars in military aid for you.
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 to be there.
Zero.
The historic economic boom that we're seeing, with jobs...
That is not, that is, that is, that is not, uh, that is not how we're seeing the American Rescue Plan.
We're changing people's lives!
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.
