The Dutch will be eating bugs.
Adam Couric, John C. Devorak.
It's Thursday, July 7th, 2022.
This is your award-winning Get One Nation Media Assassination, episode 1466.
This is no agenda.
The world is on fire!
And we're broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA Region No.
6.
In the morning, everybody.
I'm Adam Curry.
And from Northern Silicon Valley, where the guidestones have been blowed up, I'm John C. Dvorak.
It's Crackpot and Buzzkill!
In the morning!
This is so... What a great time to be alive and be a podcaster.
How many years have we been discussing the Georgia Guidestones?
That forever.
Since day one!
And I just love, you know, Tina's like, hey, did you hear, do you know about these Georgia Guidestones?
And it's this weird time loop we get caught in all the time with this show.
Where we've been around long enough to have heard it all, seen it all, pretty much everything.
My favorite line is, it's America's Stonehenge.
What?
What, they were put up by druids?
Are you kidding me?
You see, I think this is part of, um... This is the Patriots fighting back, like, no, New World Order, you're not gonna get us.
They didn't do that much damage, it looks like to me.
They took one stone out.
Yeah, they blew... Well, now it's all gone, because they demolished it.
Which is interesting.
Any excuse to get rid of it would be an embarrassment.
So here's what was on the Georgia Guidestones for those of you who don't know the full story.
And there's a good documentary, which is on YouTube, which talks about the lawyer who was given money and who gave the money.
It's shrouded in mystery.
But these things have been there for quite a while.
Where did they go up?
Do you remember when the Guidestones went up?
You know, I don't know that it's been documented when they actually, they just kind of showed up.
It's like one day somebody went out there and found them and they were just like, whoa, what's this?
Well, the documentary shows, you know, who bought the land and who paid for the construction and, you know, which guy did the actual stone.
So the Georgia Guidestones, it's worth just since we've I guess we won't have to do this anymore, so we might as well say sayonara to them.
We've done this a number of times throughout the lifetime of this podcast.
Maintain humanity under 500 million in perpetual balance with nature.
Which we always tend to do.
What did I say?
Oh, I said something stupid.
Perpetual.
You said perpetual.
Perpetual.
That's a good one.
No, perpetual.
Perpetual.
I'm sorry.
Perpetual balance with nature.
So this first tenant, and it's in multiple languages, including Taiwanese.
Oops.
But not Chinese?
I don't think so.
I don't know if it's Chinese.
I'll have to look at that.
And he says one written language.
That's what I thought.
Yeah.
Bunch of spoken languages.
Guide reproduction wisely, improving fitness and diversity, which to me is like make an Ubermensch.
Well, once the word diversity is used, that pushes it into the 60s.
Yeah.
And in the 2000s.
Yeah.
And onward.
Okay.
Unite humanity with a living new language.
Now that Esperanto never really caught on.
Well, this could be during the Esperanto era.
Oh, good point.
Good point.
Rule, passion, faith, tradition, and all things with tempered reason.
I'm not quite sure what to make of that.
I don't know.
It's not very well written, let's put it that way.
No, no.
Protect people and nations with fair laws and just courts.
I don't like the term fair in that.
I've never liked that.
We got a constitution.
Just here it is.
Let all nations rule internally, resolving external disputes in a world court.
Oh yeah.
A fan favorite.
Sure.
There you go.
So now you kind of get an idea of who is behind this.
This has got to be global elite.
Yeah, of course.
Balance personal rights with social duties.
Hello?
Social credit score.
Prize truth, beauty, love, seeking harmony with the infinite.
That definitely puts it in the 60s.
Hey, man.
New Age.
Harmony.
Infinite.
And finally, be not a cancer on the earth.
Leave room for nature.
Leave room for nature.
There's plenty of room for nature if you look around.
I mean, if you're in a city, you look around.
Yeah.
But if you look around the world, actually, there's plenty of nature.
If you take all of this into account, then, you know, this is, a lot of this is Biden adjacent.
Don't you think?
Yeah, and I think he got blowed up pretty much the same way.
Well, we hope.
And then the more recent blow-up, though, we have to... I'd like to start with and get these out of the way.
Okay.
Because it's gonna end soon.
Bojo is under attack.
Yes, well, didn't he officially resign this morning?
Wasn't that the... Not that I know of, did he?
Yeah, I think he officially resigned.
This morning.
Huh?
I know, I had to toss some clips too.
Well, they were out to get him, so I'm figuring if they... They got him.
I think they got him.
Well, they were out to get him.
I have the clips that talk about out to get him if you want to play.
Yeah, well, because the one thing that the M5M is not reporting is why they got him.
Yeah, they wouldn't do that.
Oops, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, yeah.
I just want to preface it by there's a giveaway in here who I think is going to be the next Prime Minister because I think he's the guy that was behind it all.
We've discussed him before.
He's a person of interest named Michael Gove.
Oh, right.
You actually thought he was going to be...
Going to be the guy before Bojo, didn't you?
Yeah, I've always believed he's targeted the prime ministership.
And he was, and it's mentioned in this report, I just mentioned it in advance, which is, uh, they had a bunch of guys quit mostly.
Curiously, all of his ministers had quit.
The ones that kept showing on the BBC and elsewhere were these South Asian ministers, which I found peculiar and Indians and Pakistani types.
And then he fired one of them himself.
That was Michael Gove.
So I figured he figured out this was he was the guy behind the conspiracy.
And get Bojo.
And this is really just a loss of confidence, right?
Once your cabinet and your minister start resigning, then, I mean, that's kind of the deal in the UK, isn't it?
Or in the parliamentary system in general.
Well, it's just explained in here, but he could, he did a vote of confidence with the parliament and he won it.
And so now, according to this, you can't have another one of those for 11 months.
So they were hounding him.
Now it's like, oh God, what are we going to do now?
So let's just hound him.
And using, you know, having people quit left and right with the assurances they'd be back in office under someone else, I assume.
But this was a classic out-to-get-a-guy thing.
A classic takedown.
Well done.
Well done, well done.
Yes, I agree with that.
And, you know, they tried to kill him with COVID and that didn't work.
So, you know, it still took him a long time to get rid of him.
That's right.
If you recall, this all began the time he had COVID and came in acting one way and left acting another, which we pointed out on this show.
So, it sums up.
Here we go.
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson is insisting he will not resign after another crisis has rocked his leadership.
At today's weekly Prime Minister's Questions session in Parliament, opposition members shouted, bye-bye Boris.
Johnson, though, remained defiant.
There's a very simple reason why they want me out.
And that is because they know, Mr. Speaker, that otherwise we are going to get on and deliver our mandate and win another general election.
And that is the reality, Mr. Speaker.
But even for many within his conservative party, the question is not will Johnson leave, it is when.
Willem Marks is in London for NPR and joins us now with the latest.
Welcome!
Thanks so much, Elsa.
Welcome!
This time yesterday, Willem, we were just talking about two resignations from Johnson's cabinet.
What has happened today?
Well, we had dozens more members of his government resign, including a further 15 ministers.
It goes without saying this is pretty unprecedented.
The last time a mass government resignation on this scale happened I think was back in 1932.
To remind folks how we got here, Johnson's seen support among members of his own Conservative Party slowly ever weigh over the course of this year.
Largely due to crises of his own making, particularly the fact that Downing Street, his office and official residence, played host to a large number of illegal parties during Covid-19 related restrictions.
That prevented ordinary people at the time from gathering socially.
Yeah, but it wasn't just PartyGate.
I think it was some sexual harassment that he didn't deal with possibly.
Oh no, that's coming, that's coming.
That's later.
Oh, okay.
So PartyGate wasn't the only thing.
PartyGate was what triggered the whole thing, and that's when he was having these events.
And remember when that video leaked about his press secretary laughing about, oh, it was just wine and cheese, it wasn't a party.
I mean, this was a long game takedown.
I'm surprised it took him so long.
There must be something good still under the covers.
Yeah, well, again, it started, I think, which I forgot, which is it began when he got COVID.
Right.
Then they had these parties.
Of course, he had COVID.
He figured he was never going to catch it again.
What's the big deal?
And then he did a poor job.
His cover-ups were bad.
That was another thing that was not working out.
Yeah, well, the grievance was that they had just said, everyone has to stay home.
You can't go out.
Lockdown.
And they were partying.
And they were partying, yeah.
But that was the thing that did it.
It's not a good look.
It's always a penis.
That's what always takes these guys down, is where their penis was.
He and his team handled the fallout from investigations into those parties really badly, and the Conservatives subsequently lost two constituency elections.
That was a sign that ordinary British voters were perhaps turning against Johnson and his party.
So after that, last month, the Prime Minister faced a vote of no confidence from his fellow Conservative members of Parliament.
He won it, but far from convincingly.
And so when another scandal arose last week, focused on alleged sexual assaults by a conservative legislator that Johnson had promoted to a senior government role, questions were once again raised about his judgment as leader.
And when Johnson then failed to immediately disclose that he had known about previous complaints against that same legislator, those two resignations you mentioned yesterday from among his most senior cabinet members, they took place.
Well, I mean, we just heard Prime Minister Johnson say he will fight on.
At this point, can he?
What do you think?
Well, in a word, yes, at least in terms of the mechanics and at least for a few more days.
He's repeatedly said he will not voluntarily resign and having won his party a very substantial majority in a general election just back in 2019.
Johnson's argument today seems to be that he retains a powerful mandate from the British public, even though a series of polls in recent weeks have suggested the majority of people in the UK would like to see him gone.
On top of all the resignations, he's also just sacked One of his other very senior ministers, a man considered by many to be one of the chief intellectual architects of the Johnson government agenda.
He's also already appointed replacements for the first two senior cabinet members to resign yesterday, his finance and health ministers.
And members of the Conservative Party, this is where it gets complicated, in the House of Commons, Britain's elected lower chamber in Parliament, cannot currently, under their own rules, vote to remove him as head of their party in Parliament for another 11 months, precisely because he survived a no-confidence vote last month.
Some of them now seem to be trying to change those rules as early as next week.
That would allow for a new confidence vote, and if he's lost as much support as today's resignations seem to suggest, it's unlikely he'd survive a second time.
So here's the news from this morning.
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson resigned on Thursday morning.
Johnson says he will remain as Prime Minister until a Conservative Party leadership election can be concluded over the next two months.
And he had faced increasing pressure to resign following new suggestions he misled the public.
I put this all under the heading of Great Reset, John.
I mean, we've got all kinds of cool things happening.
Well, I don't know how much of a Great Reset issue it is, but it does seem to have a... Well, that depends on who comes in, doesn't it, now?
Well, if it's Michael Gove, he's just the same old, same old.
I don't know who else is going to come in.
I don't know.
But it's off the wall that no one's ever heard of.
I blame the Large Hadron Collider.
They turned that fucker back on again.
Did you see that?
Once CERN starts smashing atoms, the world gets a little crunchy, people.
So I saw the, uh, I was watching Christina Amanpour and they were talking, this is pre-announcement, uh, with some professor of some sort.
And the way they're talking about Boris Johnson, it really had the ring of the way they talk about Trump.
Oh, of course.
Of course.
He's totally equated with Trump.
Even though I don't ever think he ever really warmed up to Trump, but he always, you know, He never was a Trump hater by any means.
And I think that they just saw him as another populist that had to go.
Which would play into the Great Reset thing that you like to promote.
Because the populism is a real... I don't think I'm promoting it.
I think I'm observing it.
That's a little different.
Populists are flying the ointment to that whole thing.
Just so we... Are you done with Bojo?
I don't know, is there another clip?
No, I don't have another clip.
Did you have another?
No, you only had two clips.
Just so we don't get the influx of emails, yes, we know that the explosion of the Georgia Guidestones was at 4 a.m., 4-0-3-33 to be exact.
Yes, we know it.
We know that if you count 4 plus 3 plus 3 plus 3, it's 13.
Also, 7 plus 6 is 13.
it's 13 also 7 plus 6 is 13 so 322 that oh it 1980 322 1980 is when it was constructed that of course as we all know is the skull and bones number uh but Bush Sr.' 's last official year working for the CIA was 1979.
It could have been his pet project.
I'm just going through all the things here.
George W. Bush's birthday is 7-16-1946, the day of the incident.
He turned 76.
Hello, 1776!
This is the Patriots!
of the incident, he turned 76.
Hello, 1776.
This is the Patriots.
This is the Patriots.
Yeah.
Well, I...
You guys still on the Q mailing list?
No, I mean, well, yes.
Yes, of course I am.
Did you know that Charlie Rose is still doing interviews?
With his dogs in his basement?
With who?
Actually quite... I mean, on YouTube, he has his own Charlie Rose channel, and he hasn't stopped.
He just keeps on doing interviews.
Now, for those who don't remember, Charlie Rose was cancelled because he was basically a creepy old flasher.
He would walk around, interns come over to his house, he'd have his bathrobe fall open, oh, I'm sorry, boing, boing, boing.
No, no, that's not true.
He never said, I'm sorry.
Exactly.
He never said that.
So he's still doing interviews.
And I came across this one interview of Ray Dalio, who is, I guess he was very famous.
He went bankrupt.
He's still very famous.
Yeah.
What's his backstory?
He made some predictions that were really right and then really wrong.
That's the nature of these guys.
Once he hit the bottom, he predicted the bottom!
And then he's good to go until he screws up, and he usually screws up big.
Exactly.
Excuse me.
So he is now, I guess, semi-retired.
I don't know what that means.
But he has decided that he needs to educate the world on how the world works because, you know, we've been lied to.
So he's going out, he's doing interviews with everybody from Bitcoiners to Charlie Rose.
I mean, and even for anyone to do Charlie Rose.
I think Horowitz had him on his Disciplined Investor podcast.
A step above Charlie Rose.
Well, yeah, I'd say it probably is.
Well, it would have been a lot more fun if this has come out of Horace's podcast.
What was he talking about in terms of the market as opposed to Charlie Rose?
So this pertains to the Great Reset.
And what is the moment we're in now?
Are we, in your judgment, in a moment in which the world order is going to change?
Yes, we're changing the world order, OK?
In 1945, we started a new world order.
What I mean is... Say what?
He said, OK.
OK.
We're changing the world, OK?
And Charlie's supposed to say, OK.
I don't know, OK.
Am I supposed to agree with this?
OK.
Hey, this is just it.
Just agree.
Just go along.
Changing the world.
OK, OK, OK.
In 1945, we started the new world order.
What I mean is, Over throughout history there's a fight for control because there's no world court that you go to and plead your case.
Not yet.
And so there's a fight for power so there's a war and then the winners come out of that war and the winners set the rules.
And so 1945, the United States had 80% of the world's money.
Gold was money at the time.
It had half the world's GDP.
It had a monopoly on military power.
So the U.S.
set the world order.
That's why the United Nations is in New York.
Washington, D.C.
has the IMF and the World Bank.
And its currency became the reserve currency.
And its currency became the reserve currency because of that set of circumstances.
I do love how he skips over a lot of stuff, but I just kind of like someone just saying, Hey, yeah, this is the new world order.
Here's when it started.
Here's how it works.
Okay.
Things evolve.
Things change.
Okay, over history.
So the three big things that are changing now, that haven't occurred in our lifetime, is the amount of debt and money creation, which affects the value of money, and you can see it affecting what's going on every day.
Large debt means the printing of money.
Right.
The large debt puts central bankers in a choice.
Do you pay it back with hard money, or do you pay it back with printed devalued money?
Printed value money, of course.
Yes, obviously.
That's the way to go.
Hard money, it's hard.
In other words, that's when you have debt crises.
So in all cases, they eventually print money and that produces inflation, right?
So that dynamics, the first... And that's the place we are at this moment.
That's the place we are at this moment.
And we'll talk about that.
I love how Charlie's like, is that the place we are at this moment?
I mean, do we have inflation?
Let me check my bathrobe if there's inflation.
We'll drill down on that.
In a minute.
The second is when there's a great internal conflict.
Usually when there's a large wealth and values gap at the same time as you have a financial problem.
Then you get populism.
Populism of the left and populism of the right.
Trump!
In other words, those who feel disenfranchised want people who are going to fight for them.
They don't want compromisers.
Who is the big leader on the left?
They don't have one, do they?
Let Bernie do it, ladies and gentlemen.
The left's got a little more control over the situation.
I mean, I'm sorry, the Democrat moderates have a little, even though they're all left, they have a little more control.
They just kind of won't let Bernie get anywhere.
He's already done.
He's too old now.
So what is interesting?
You have all these elites, all these big guys from the past, and most recent past, coming out and starting to say stuff, and just say it kind of out loud.
And none of it is being shown on your local news, obviously.
This is the former Bank of England governor, Mervyn King, Lord King.
Is that equatable to Federal Reserve Chairman?
For the Bank of England?
Yeah, except for the Bank of England.
Yeah, I'd say so.
All right.
So he's going to explain what happened.
But why do we have this crazy inflation?
So I think the mistaken ideas are twofold, really, at present.
The first is that people, I think, decided that when the pandemic hit, because output in the economy contracted, the right thing to do was to print a lot more money to stimulate spending, to try and bring demand back up.
But that's not what the pandemic was about.
The pandemic was about shutting down parts of the economy quite deliberately in order to prevent the spread of the disease.
And that meant that if you simply print lots of money at a time when you're producing less, You've got a classic case of too much money chasing too few goods.
And the result of that is inflation.
And we started to see that last year, in 2021.
That was the first, I think, mistaken idea.
And it's interesting that it was common to all central banks.
They basically felt, we must demonstrate that we're here, we must do something.
But governments were doing a great deal through, in our case, the furlough scheme, which is very sensible.
Other governments had their own schemes.
This was a very sensible thing to do, but it didn't need central banks to print lots of extra money on top of all that.
That's generated a rise in inflation.
Followed by the mistake, of course, that now I think of understandably worried about the impact of the Russian invasion of Ukraine on energy and food prices.
Which is not the responsibility of central banks.
So that's pushed inflation up further, but it would have been above target in any event.
It will come down next year and the year after.
The question is, will it come down to 2% where it's supposed to be?
And now he's going to make an incredible revelation about how central banks work and how they control inflation.
It's mind-boggling.
The argument of central banks essentially is, well, we're saying it will come down to 2%, so everyone will believe us, and so it will come down to 2%.
Well, that's a very odd way of thinking about it.
I call that the King-Cnut theory of inflation, that you sit there and you command the forces of the economy to bring inflation down to 2%, irrespective of whether you're prepared to raise interest rates enough to achieve that.
Do you think, John, that there is something, because there's a follow-up clip to this, That just by talking about it and throwing it out in the media that it changes people's attitudes and somehow they can manage that?
It's been well proven and I think unfortunately it also gets to the point where they lie to you in hopes that you change your habits.
That's what Biden keeps trying to do.
And that's what he does when he keeps blaming everything on Ukraine and Putin.
But the public doesn't necessarily buy all of it.
If it's discussed enough, I mean right now it seems that the media is pushing the idea that we're in a recession.
You are too.
I am?
I thought you were.
I thought you said something about it.
No, I've never.
No, I'm not qualified to call that.
I said Great Reset.
I'm very qualified to see the Great Reset happening before my very eyes.
Well, there's a second part to this, which also includes basically the media and how people are told what's going on.
Shorter clip, but this is about inflation as well.
Well, really from the 1970s through until the early 1990s, inflation was something that people always talked about.
Indeed, I think the best definition of getting away from inflation is when people stop talking about it and sadly today they are talking about it and basically inflation turns a healthy economy into a sick one because it becomes a process of constant catch-up you know your wage goes up then it's my turn later on to bargain a wage I I start to think you're getting paid more than I am, then you think I'm getting paid more than you.
It makes it very difficult for people to work out how expensive things are, whose wage is higher than somebody else's, and that makes it almost impossible for an economy to function because you don't know what the cheapest sources of supply or inputs are.
what the cheapest kind of labor is and what kind of job to take.
Yeah!
And certainly when inflation reached over 25% in the 1970s, this was something that really started to wreck the way the whole economy worked.
Yeah, good times ahead, especially with headlines like this.
And the news is not so good if you're looking for a new car.
Higher interest rates have pushed car payments to a record high.
The average monthly car payment is now $712.
$712?
We could buy a car for that.
$712?
$712?
We could buy a car for that.
Well, that's what, but that's just for $712.
Yeah.
My goodness.
It's a junker, but you can buy that one.
I mean, and what kind of car do you get for that?
That used to be, last time I was pricing stuff, that was like Mercedes money.
Now that's just- Oh, for 700 a month?
Now that's just median car?
I don't know.
I mean, I know who's paying $700 a month for a car payment unless it is a Mercedes.
Yeah, but that wasn't what the story was.
This is the average car payment.
I find it hard to believe.
Well, how about this one then?
Drivers are seeing improvement at the gas pump.
Average prices nationwide are down 10 cents in the last week.
And crude oil prices fell below $100 per barrel yesterday for the first time since May.
Thanks to falling demand and global concerns about a recession, one expert says if oil prices stay this low, we could see gas prices drop 65 cents in the coming weeks.
Okay, so there's your recession talk, which I'm not doing and I'm not pushing.
This is what the mainstream media is pushing, and here's Ed Morse, head of global commodities research at Citigroup, about the oil recession.
We see over 2 million barrels a day of Western Hemisphere growth this year, including 1.3 million out of the United States.
The U.S.
is already up a million barrels a day, year on year.
Canada looks for sure to be up 300,000 barrels a day.
Mexico up 100 a day.
Brazil up a couple hundred a day.
Argentina is up more than people thought.
Venezuela is even up 300,000 a day, year on year.
We think if you look closely at supply, it really is growing and it's accelerating as we move from here to the end of December.
And we've seen that US demand is down.
There was a Bloomberg quote yesterday that somebody at Bloomberg saw demand as low as it was in 2014.
We think you've got to go back to 2012-13 to see demand at the levels that we're now seeing when it comes to transport fuels like diesel and gasoline.
But we're thinking in our base case that oil is going to go down to 85.
We're looking at a supply-demand balance that's seeing inventory builds from here to the end of the year.
We don't know what's going to happen to Iranian supply.
We don't know what's going to happen to Russian supply.
But so far, Russian exports into the market have been higher than people had anticipated and higher than what the historical trend was a year ago.
So how do I understand what that's all about?
I can understand one thing Russia's making out on this war.
They sure are.
I mean, they're cleaning up.
Stay over there and just keep shooting missiles.
Each one of those missiles is guaranteed more income for the Russian oil business.
Oh, did you hear the, um, what's her name?
Claire Daly from, uh, Member of Parliament for the European Union.
She's from Ireland.
No.
Here, listen to this.
Thanks President.
The goal is an endless war, not a successful war.
Those were the words of Julian Assange in 2011 in relation to the war in Afghanistan.
Words which could now equally apply about Ukraine.
Ukraine should absolutely be able to join the EU.
But on terms that don't bankrupt its people and when it's ready and when a majority of its people choose.
But that certainly will not be happening while the country is an active war zone and everybody knows it.
So instead we're artificially prolonging this war with a steady flow of heavy weapons, attacking peace efforts as appeasement.
The EU is guaranteeing a stalemate and ensuring that Ukraine will never be able to choose its own path.
President von der Leyen gave the game away last Friday when she said Ukrainians are ready to die for the European perspective.
My God!
What a deluded narcissist!
The real plan here, we know.
Candidate status is bait in a trap.
The real plan is to transform Ukraine into a meat grinder.
Use its people as cannon fodder in an endless proxy war against Russia with the European taxpayer footing one bill after another for the arms industry.
There's nothing to celebrate in that.
Wow!
Yeah, I get a borderline clip for that.
That's beautiful.
Oh, thank you.
I just love people who do that.
There's not a lot of them around, certainly not in the European Parliament, but when she does it, yeah, I'll take it.
That's good.
She let him have it.
Yeah!
Yeah, she sure did.
She's right.
Everything she said falls right in line with normal, logical thinking.
Our president actually was also quite truthful.
I mean, it slipped out, but this is from his recent speech at the NATO gathering.
Things are changing to adapt to the world as we have it today.
And all this is against the backdrop of our response to Russia's aggression and to help Ukraine defend itself.
Oops!
NATO's aggression.
Because it's true!
It's true.
Well, I like the way they keep talking, they never like to mention it, but, you know, I was just harking back to Libya.
What is Libya?
And it was a NATO, it was a NATO maneuver.
It was NATO that attacked Libya.
We were in the back, as you remember, it was Obama's running things, but he was in the, you know, let them do it.
They'll be in the front, we'll be in the back.
Well, let's always remember.
So, I mean, that is the land of unconfirmed videos.
We came, we saw, he died.
That's when she got news that Gaddafi had been killed.
Right.
So she was definitely a part of that.
Now, there's an opportunity here and they keep floating it out in front of Biden.
I'm not sure if this is internal forces trying to make him look bad by continuously throwing this thing out.
And this is the American athlete, basketball player, Brittany Greiner, who is still incarcerated in Russia for breaking the law, having THC vape cartridges in her luggage.
And this will not leave, so we might as well play it and keep our eye on it.
This morning, a letter from WNBA star Brittany Greiner to President Biden has arrived at the White House.
She writes, as I sit here in a Russian prison alone with my thoughts and without the protection of my wife, family, friends, Olympic jersey, or any accomplishments, I'm terrified I might be here forever.
Greiner's team releasing just a few excerpts, saying the full content of the handwritten letter is for President Biden's eyes only.
In the note, Greiner says Independence Day has a new meaning for her since being detained in Russia on drug charges in February.
On the 4th of July, our family normally honors the service of those who fought for our freedom, including my father, who is a Vietnam War veteran.
It hurts thinking about how I usually celebrate this day because freedom means something completely different to me this year.
I realize you are dealing with so much, but please don't forget about me and the other American detainees.
The White House says it continues to work aggressively to bring Greiner home.
Her trial is underway in Moscow.
Legal experts believe she'll face up to 10 years in a penal colony.
But in recent days, Russia has signaled it might be interested in a prisoner swap for Greiner.
That potential swap could include Russian arms dealer Victor Booth, who made a fortune dealing weapons before his capture in 2008.
Booth's exploits served as inspiration for the Nicolas Cage film, Lord of War.
Boot's lawyer told the New York Times, my sense of this is that no American is going home unless Victor Boot is sent home with them.
Now, I bring this up because I also received an email about this very topic, which is please post, please mention in your show that this is an outrage.
Biden should swap prisoners for Brittany Greiner.
And it was an email from someone I've not heard from in a long time.
It was Steve Pchenik.
And so when that happens, I'm like, hmm, why?
Coordinated effort.
Something's going on.
Well, I think there's a couple of things.
I've been following this a little bit.
I like the right-wing approach.
She was one of the big promoters of not turning your back on the flag and not standing up for the national anthem.
Oh, I didn't realize that.
Okay.
That gives a little extra perspective to what's going on.
Yeah, it's one of those, okay, you feel that way, then check this out.
The other thing is that Biden keeps saying that she was unjustly arrested when it was illegal to do what she did and the Russians took advantage.
Arrested her for obvious reasons.
She's not some innocent that was just pulled off the street.
She actually played on a Russian team, a Russian basketball team during the summer because most of the women have to make money somehow and you don't get it from the WNBA according to them.
I think this was an – I think the Max Boot thing is – That was interesting.
Why does it have – what has it got to do with Russia?
He's not a Russian arms dealer.
He's not a Russian spy.
He's not a Russian agent.
What's the story?
Explain the Max Boot story.
I think it's one of these deals where he is so entrenched with the arms business, you know, the illegal arms business that he gets a pass.
When he was arrested, it was one of those, okay, we're going to arrest you.
You know, one of those intelligence things.
Oh yeah.
Hey, look, here's a pizza.
Just sit tight.
48 hours.
You know, we'll take care of this.
You were going to arrest it, but we're going to, and we'll find a way to get you out, but you're going to have to go through this.
Don't worry about it.
We'll get you out.
Now, I don't know if it's the CIA that wants to get him out of jail, and a whole swap for Greiner is bullcrap, and it could be some sort of an agreement with the FSB, the CIA, who knows?
But there's something about this guy Boot.
He's not a spy.
I mean, it's not like spy swap, where you got one spy on one side getting swapped for another.
And why him?
There's other people we have incarcerated that the Russians might want to have released.
So this is bullcrap.
Well, no, it's not bullcrap.
There's a reason.
There's reasons we don't know yet.
It was because it was pre-set up.
It was pre-arranged that if he ever got arrested in this, in some, or he gave himself up in some situation, were they guaranteed they're going to get him out.
And this is the way they're going to do it.
Huh.
That's the only thing I can see.
It just sounds like a movie plot.
But it's, uh... I mean, it doesn't make sense otherwise.
What's it got to do with the price of bread?
What's he got to do with anything?
I'd love that they even put Nicolas Cage's movie in there.
He, by the way, has a new movie out.
Did you know that?
What's he shouting about this time?
Oh, it's great.
We watched it the other night.
It's, uh, uh, the unbearable weight of enormous talent or something like that.
And it's basically him playing himself being a total dick actor who's, you know, can't really get the right role.
And there's, and it turns into an action movie, which he's writing at the same time.
It's pretty funny.
Huh.
It's on, uh, I want to say Amazon?
I don't think it's on Hulu or Netflix.
Anyway, it doesn't matter.
So something's going on there.
Yeah, and this is what they're going to try.
So they've shoehorned this deal.
That's not even a deal.
No, maybe the whole thing was for this deal specifically.
I don't think so.
I mean, for ABC to bring up Max Boot, I mean, someone said something.
Well, no, Max Boot has been brought up.
This wasn't just me.
This has been going on for at least a week or more with Max Boot being mentioned over and over again by sources.
I don't know who they are.
And I think Pecheneg coming in out of the blue like this.
That clinched the deal for me.
I'm like, oh, we should talk about it now.
That deal may go through.
I don't know what the Russians want to do with Max Boot, but OK, we'll see what happens.
I want to talk briefly about the Dutch farmers.
Oh, yes.
Yeah, this is not being covered very well at all.
Well, because most of what's going on is in Dutch.
That's the big problem.
To recap, Because of the Green Deal and basically ESG standards for corporations that are now being kind of rolled out globally, and the agenda 2030, which, you know, is really 2025 now.
I think they're moving it closer.
Uh, it's to get rid of, uh, beef, get rid of, or all animals, animal protein in general.
You're going to have a soy and plant based meat and it's going to have wonderful text and taste, uh, uh, products in it.
So it'll, you know, the texture, it'll, it'll, it'll feel just like real meat.
I say, why even bother?
I have the Nicole Kidman clip, which I think is a couple years old.
Here's what I don't understand.
I was gonna say, what happened?
Because we played this clip three years ago.
Well, it was longer than that, I think.
And then, and you know what happens then?
Is then everyone starts sending the Angelina Jolie eating bugs clip.
It's like... Oh, I haven't seen that one yet.
Oh, but that's also old, when she was in Africa.
It's years and years old.
So it's so interesting that that just... The Algos grabbed that and you can see everyone flooding to their Twitter and email.
Do you want to play it again?
Is that...
I want to play it again, because I cut it down as best I could, because there's a lot of pauses in there where she's... Yeah, where she's smacking away.
Supposedly.
Muckbang.
That's even questionable whether she is, but she claims to be, and she looks kind of, if you watch her, she looks like a reptile, so it's possible.
I'm Nicole Kidman.
Sorry.
Wait.
And then the thing that got me at the end is the Hollywood elites clapping for her at the end.
I'm Nicole Kidman, and I am going to eat a four-course meal of bugs.
I am here to reveal my hidden talent, eating micro-livestock.
Corn worms.
They're still alive.
Mm.
Extraordinary.
Mm.
Very moist.
Chewy.
Can't quite describe the flavor, but I need a little water.
Try the second glass, shall we?
Just a little side note.
Two billion people in the world eat bugs.
And I'm one of them.
Because here we go.
Some me-worms.
I'm telling you, I'd win Survivor.
That is a fruity taste.
I'd recommend it.
Here we have... Oh!
Crickets!
Oh, nothing.
Oh!
Awesome.
Like nothing you've ever tasted.
Like a hairy nut.
Don't.
Oh my gosh.
A nut from the shell.
And now, for dessert, the fried grasshopper.
These are amazing.
Amazing.
These are exquisite grasshoppers.
I recommend them to anyone.
Thank you for spending so much time with me and watching me eat bugs.
Till next time.
I love bugs.
Bugs, bugs, bugs.
Tastes like poop.
Anyway, thank you.
I don't know why this always gets a laugh out of me.
Because it tastes like poop.
You know the anonymous gay accountant?
He texted me last week or so and he says, we're having a meal at this brand new restaurant, he and his husband, and he sends a picture of bugs.
And I say, what does it taste like?
And he comes back, like poop.
So, you know, it's one of those things, it just continues on, it keeps on giving.
So anyway, so, and the Netherlands is uniquely positioned because they have Royal DSM and they do 8 billion euros a year in taste and texture products.
So they're all about that.
They're transforming it.
And because of the green targets across Europe, the Netherlands has to cut 50% of their farming, of their farmland where they have animals, mainly cows, but other types of livestock.
And they said that's going to happen, you know, within the next seven to eight years and there's no turning back and this is just something we've decided as the government, even though we're supposed to represent the people.
I'm doing what's good for Netherlands because that's why I was, that's why I chose this career, said the Minister of Nature and Nitrogen, which is a real post.
Should tell you enough right there.
And so the farmers went, what?
This is not the first time they've done it.
And so they all came out from the farmlands and they blocked the roads.
And when you do this in the Netherlands, which already has a massive traffic issue every single morning, every single afternoon, the way they communicate the traffic is by, not like in the U.S.
where they say how many minutes you'll be waiting, they just say how many kilometers.
You know, it's 50 kilometers backed up from there, and it's always the same bridge, and it's always these... And then, when someone kills themselves in front of the train, it backs up everything, then the whole country has to stop.
Damn suicider.
So it's, it's, it's, it's everything's pretty tight.
It's one, it's one of the, if not the most densely populated countries on earth.
So it's gotta go.
And the farmers say no.
And now this time they got a little more serious and they brought down their, uh, their manure machines and they sprayed, uh, uh, Manure all over government buildings and, you know, and they just kept getting no, no, no.
Then the cops started to fight back, even though there was no fighting, but then you get fighting.
There's lots of evidence of the Romeos at work, who are the undercover cops who seem to be stoking up all kinds of stuff.
And yep, lo and behold, one cop starts shooting at a 16-year-old farmer on a tractor.
Now, no one was hurt, but there's video of this cop just, like, walking across the road, you know, a car rolls up, and he's like, stop, and he points the gun at the driver of the car!
It's just like a regular passenger car, like, stop!
Like a cowboy!
These guys are out of control.
So the 16-year-old kid's name is Jauka, and what the police allege is that he was driving towards them as if, you know, that would be an attempted murder, and that's why they shot at him.
And if you see the video, it doesn't really seem to be that dire.
Anyway, so the kid is free on his own, you know, he's free.
Recognizance.
Thank you.
But the Department of Justice, they say, we don't really see any massive evidence that we have to bring him back in.
So, you know, a little more of a fizzle than anything.
What the farmers also did is they blocked all the entrances to the distribution centers.
Now, again, when you have the road network and the rail network, which is very fragile in the Netherlands, when you start blocking stuff like that, food really doesn't appear in the supermarkets the next day.
So typical Dutch, I will say, and I've spoken to a few people, they will tell me the same thing.
You know, We really feel for the farmers, and we agree with them, and we're on their side.
But they really shouldn't be bothering us with this.
If I can't get my meat, then, you know, they've got to stop.
They've got to cut it out.
And it's so typical Dutch.
When the Germans invaded, they capitulated within 24 hours.
Like, hey, Hans, here's my fagot.
Here's my bike.
Take the bike.
Take the bike.
So it's sad, although there's all kinds of small things like in Friesland, which is, I think they speak a version of Dutch, which you can understand if you speak Welsh and vice versa.
They're talking about, hey, you know, maybe we should secede from the provinces.
The island of Texel, T-E-X-E-L, they actually put out a whole release.
We're claiming independence.
Here's our parliament.
Here's our prime minister.
It was a lark.
But it did really come from the local governance in Texel, which is very small.
You know, barely anyone lives on the island.
So things are heating up.
And unfortunately, I think the Dutch farmers will lose out.
They'll be bought out.
They will have no support from the country.
And the Dutch will be eating bugs.
That's exactly right.
And they're going to like it.
And they won't own anything.
This is also happening in Oregon, apparently.
One of our producers, Rich, he says on the 2024 ballot, they have these, you know, now they're taking it to the animal rights groups.
So it's time to end animal cruelty.
The Abuse, Neglect and Assault Exemption Modification Improvement Act.
They've got all kinds of stuff to basically make it illegal to raise livestock in Oregon.
Or to a certain degree.
The Dutch minister of nature and nitrogen has a brother-in-law...
Who owns Picnic, an online supermarket, which specializes in green products.
And who do you think invested $600 million in that company?
It's either going to be Gates or Soros.
Gates, number one pick, right off the bat.
So that, of course, makes people question what's happening.
Same goes for, this was interesting, Almonds.
One of our producers, Sandra, she recently bought a field of almond trees in the Douro Valley, Portugal, where she's originally from.
Some of my millennial friends told me that I'd made a terrible mistake, and I'm part of the problem!
According to her millennial friends, and other reports they shared with me, Mother Jones, which she has a link to, To grow one almond, you need 1.1 gallons of water.
One nut is 1.1 gallons.
Have you heard this?
Oh yeah, almonds are the worst.
They're considered the worst sort of crop for water conservationists.
And it's a crime that they're grown to such an extreme, especially since they're not such a great tasting nut, in my opinion.
I'd rather eat a cashew any day.
Well, here's what she says.
This is what's interesting.
Says, this is not the case in my experience.
My family has been growing almonds for centuries and almond trees require litter to almost no water during the year.
The only maintenance needed is to trim and clean the field once or twice a year.
The climate in our region is Mediterranean, hot and mostly dry, similar to California.
So she says, where does this come from?
She disputes it.
Okay.
Well, now that's a challenge for us to look into.
I'll look into it.
I'll take the side of the bad nut.
Bad nut.
We'll keep her on that other side and we'll see what can come up.
That could be, I mean, if true, I mean, that could be a massive psy-op.
You know, that everyone believes this.
I believe this is a possibility, but I've never heard good thing about almond farmers.
That's just because you're biased.
You're anti-almond.
Well, they make almond milk.
You're an almond phobe.
Almond juice.
Sap.
It's nut sap.
Nut sap.
Somebody's pointed out that what it takes for a cow to make some milk and then how the water, because of this water myth, which we're going to call it just temporarily, water myth about almonds, takes more water than it takes to keep a cow alive.
I think you're an almonist.
An almonist.
You're just anti-almond, man.
That's very disturbing.
Well, I don't like the nut.
No, that's clear.
That's obvious.
This is where it comes from.
It's a dry nut, which belies the need for so much water.
It's a dry kind of a grainy nut.
I've only had them sometimes if they're cured correctly by somebody who really knows what they're doing, but I think it's expensive.
They're good.
I've only had them from a couple of vendors that have ever been really edible.
The rest of them are kind of chewy, mealy.
They're like eating bugs.
It's not a good nut compared to a kind of a oily cashew or a macadamia nut which has got a nice flavor.
Although I guess if you eat too many macadamia nuts you just drop dead.
And they're not good for dogs.
They're very bad for dogs.
Well speaking of such...
Just since we're on food, I was going to send this to you, but I'll read it now.
This is from Texas Slim, who started the Beef Initiative.
Yeah.
And he has a little bit of a beef with you, to use a pun.
He says, hey Dvorak, because you've been yakking on your yak balls.
Old Adam was stacking beef boxes from the Beef Initiative and K&C Cattle in Austin, Texas to his freezer.
Us Texas boys know how to have a true calf fry, and sometimes you go out to Colorado to have some true mountain oysters.
I guess that's the proper name.
Mountain oysters.
There's no proper name.
For the sake of your pure animal protein quest, he invites you to the Colorado Beef Initiative conference.
But more importantly, he gives you, gifts you, And this is the Texas Slim Top Hand Beef Box.
And if it's okay, I'll send him your address.
In it, one tomahawk ribeye, four bone-in cowboy ribeyes, four Denver or Chuckeye steaks, four filet mignons, one top sirloin, and four packs of ground beef.
Frozen.
He's trying to get you off the yak balls!
The Texas Beef Initiative is at work.
Well, good.
You know what I'd really like to have, though, above all these crazy animals that are edible?
Yeah, Oryx.
I know, Oryx.
Oh, did I say Oryx?
Oh no, you said it.
Yes, there's an animal.
It's a very small gazelle.
Very cute looking thing.
They're all over the place where you are.
Especially in the hill country.
And they're all over the place.
You see them here and there.
And they're just like, wow, those are so cute.
Um...
And it seems to me that since we've been talking about this for almost 10 years, that someone living amongst... Should be handing some Oryx over.
The Oryx.
Yes.
Should have even himself tried it.
Well, I will parry your attack and say that even though I have not yet tried the Oryx, I have Had some of the local mead from the Texas Meadworks.
Oh, finally!
Well, see, now, this is funny because I had already forgotten to pester you about this.
Yes.
I think two or three shows ago I gave up because you got so testy about it.
Well, we're in luck because our producers came through.
Sir Mark Hall came over and he brought a beautiful bottle of the Texas Mead from the Texas Mead Works that you and I kept talking about, made from bee honey.
And we both had a glass and we both said, this sucks.
It was bad?
It didn't taste that, wasn't all that tasty.
Okay, I'm going to bring my mead story back into play.
Did we have bogus mead?
Did we have the wrong mead?
No, no, I think that's what mead generally tastes like.
Oh man, it was a little disappointing.
I think, here's what my theory is, because there used to be, we had a winery around here.
You start in Albany, California, a little winery, and then it moved to Healdsburg where they got established and they stayed there.
During the early days of the, and this is in this, probably the 70s, in the early days of this winery, the guy who was the winemaker was a mead nut.
And on the side, he made mead.
And he had a bottle, Mr. Davis buying him, I think the whole thing was mead.
And it was tremendous.
It was absolutely gorgeous.
Oh, wow.
Okay.
Well, I got chips.
It was so drinkable.
It was like, what?
This is, wow, I drink this all the time.
I said, well, you know, I make it every year.
And so then I was in England or something and I had, I'm going to try some mead there.
And I had some tap, untapped, the best stuff in one of the pubs.
Mead on tap?
We need that at the round table.
It was undrinkable.
And then I had mead again.
Undrinkable.
It's undrinkable, generally speaking.
I think nobody knows what they're doing.
Wow, that's really interesting.
I mean, they set up a whole thing called, you know, Texas Mead Works.
You'd think they'd know what they were doing, but we both said it's like, it's like drinking kind of diluted warm honey.
Yeah, it's no good.
No.
Okay, well.
But that was my experience too.
I would have probably said the same thing if I was sitting there with the two of you.
I know it can be done.
That's the point I was trying to make there.
Speaking of nutrition...
Kellogg has lost a legal battle over the promotion of its sugary cereals in the UK.
The company failed to block new regulations that will ban unhealthy foods from high-profile locations in British supermarkets like entrances and checkout aisles.
The High Court rejected Kellogg's argument that adding milk to cereals like Frosted Flakes can make the cereal more nutritious.
They blocked cereal?
Yes!
You can't have it in easy-to-access places now.
You know, you can't have it... Do I have to ask for the key?
I get it, probably!
Hey man, can you get me some nuttin', honey?
Oh, God!
That's unbelievable!
Well, in one way, I mean, in one way, hey, don't worry people, we're really looking out for your nutrition.
Now eat some bugs!
None of this wheat.
You can't eat frosted wheat.
You can't eat Cheerios.
It's got, you know, too much oats.
Can't have that.
No.
But you can have some crickets.
Yeah.
I mean, I think, again, this is a task for the Curry-Dvorak Consulting Group.
We immediately need to advise the Kellogg brands how they should be sprinkling their cereals with bugs.
I mean, raisin bugs.
I mean, there's a million different things we can create.
Kellogg's raisin bugs, everybody.
Kids like them.
We can resurrect Nike.
Mikey.
Mikey can come back.
Mikey likes it for life cereal, now with bugs.
Jiminy Cricket.
I mean, there's a million things.
I mean, we can put real leprechauns in the series.
We can put real leprechauns in.
We just, you know, we take some kind of cricket and we just say it's a leprechaun.
Painted green.
You know, some green food coloring.
I'm telling you, this is where they need to go.
They need to stop getting Nicole Kidman.
If you really want to do it, you got to get the kids begging for it.
So, you know.
Yeah, I agree.
That's, it's so simple.
Let's make a quick jump to COVID, get it cut with some COVID.
Oh goodness, okay.
Because there's a lot of, I mean, The situation, the way I see it right now and what I'm seeing coming through on the transom and seeing how it's being discussed, they're going to play this, man.
They're going to play this this fall.
They're going to do everything they can.
They're going to try everything to screw up everybody's life once again.
And they're doing it in an insane manner.
Nothing is believable anymore.
What do you have?
I got two clips.
One, I got kind of a promotion for the vaccine for little kids on NPR, followed by, they did a whole segment on one of the shows and it just went on and on and on.
And they had a Q&R and I have one of the Q&Rs.
Q&R Q&A?
I said Q&R for some stupid reason.
What is Q&R?
Question and response.
Q&A.
It's a Q&A.
But let's play COVID mom promotion.
Just listen to this pathetic I mean, the way that these people should be, well, shaved and walk down the street.
I feel like I've been holding my breath for like the past year.
Parents like Cassandra Schwartz are finally exhaling.
My baby's been in a grocery store one time in her entire life.
We don't go anywhere that's inside with her, you know, that's not like a friend's house that we fully vetted or her daycare.
So like, I'm excited to be able to like, if I need to go grocery shopping and take her with me, I can Do that.
She can do that, she says, because COVID vaccines are now available for kids under five years old.
The pools are open!
Woohoo!
Oh my goodness.
Where did they get this pre-processed mom from?
It's just part of, I think it was almost a native ad for Pfizer.
That was disgusting.
And the way, and the way she played.
Hold on a second.
Hold on a second.
I need to, I need to reevaluate what just happened there.
That was way beyond promotion.
Let's hear it again.
I feel like I've been holding my breath for, like, the past year.
So we don't know who that was.
She does not intro or back-announce who that was, because it sounds like she works for NPR.
This was a teaser for the whole Things Considered show.
So was she just a random mom?
Random mom.
Random mom.
Parents like Cassandra Schwartz are finally exhaling.
Cassandra Schwartz.
My baby's been in a grocery store one time in her entire life.
We don't go anywhere that's inside with her, you know, that's not like a friend's house that we fully vetted or her daycare.
So, like, I'm excited to be able to, like, if I need to go grocery shopping and take her with me, I can do that.
She can do that, she says, because COVID vaccines are now available for kids under five years old.
Was it Cassandra's shorts or Cassandra's short?
I'm smelling a rat here.
I want to know.
Cassandra Schwartz.
Telling you, I smell a rat.
Well, the rat is probably Pfizer.
So let's go.
So they said they do a whole show on this thing on the whole, how great it is.
And well, you know, it's unfortunate only 25% of the moms are going to get their kids shot because the other ones are going to wait and see or they don't want to do it or they're going to wait and see.
They're going to wait and see.
So then they go to a question and answer with some breathless MD woman, I believe, and they go question, answer, question, answer.
It's all about this.
It's pretty much the same kind of thing.
But here's the one that I isolated because It's one of those situations where they ask a question that's never answered.
The question is never answered, even though it's a great question or a good question.
It's a good question, but never answered.
And it's just a promotion.
Pfizer seems to be behind all this stuff, of course.
They're really throwing their weight around.
But let's listen to this carefully and then tell me what you think.
Let's now move on to a question from Allison Cloyd from Arvada, Colorado.
She writes, quote, With the efficacy of Moderna being so much lower for the under-5 crowd and Pfizer having a very small sample size, is it worth having my 3-year-old vaccinated if she tested positive for COVID in February?
How does that calculus change knowing we have a 10-week-old baby Who can't be vaccinated yet, but is breastfed, parenthesis, I'm triple vaxxed, and was still in utero when I had COVID at that same time.
Okay, stop.
There's a lot to unpack.
Stop, stop.
You have to play this over because, I mean, play it again.
I just want to stop it because...
No normal person would ask a question with those words.
Calculus, efficacy, all these kinds of medical- That's a script!
It's a total scripted, bullcrap question.
If there's even this woman in our VOD, I'd be surprised.
How far- With this question, and then she puts in parentheses.
Okay, you probably would normally say parents if you're on the broadcast.
Okay.
I'm triple vaxxed.
Uh, the whole thing is rigged.
This is a... This is a disgusting insult to the listening public.
The doctor's response to it is even worse, but start it over again if you don't mind.
I have no problem with that.
Let's now move on to a question from Allison Cloyd from Arvada, Colorado.
She writes, quote, With the efficacy of Moderna being so much lower for the under-5 crowd and Pfizer having a very small sample size, is it worth having my 3-year-old vaccinated if she tested positive for COVID in February?
How does that calculus change knowing we have a 10-week-old baby Who can't be vaccinated yet, but is breastfed, parenthesis, I'm triple vaxxed, and was still in utero when I had COVID at that same time.
Dr. Herd-Garris, there's a lot to unpack here, but maybe you can give some advice to Allison here.
Yeah, I think it's a good question, especially since her child, Allison's child, was actually positive for COVID-19 in February.
And even though she had it in February, her immunity is starting to wane.
So we say about 30 to 90 days after getting a COVID-19 infection is an ideal time.
It's still safe.
You can immediately get your COVID-19 vaccination right after.
But if you want to wait some time, You know, 30 to 90 days is still the safe window.
She's well beyond that now.
So I think it's time for Allison's child to get vaccinated, especially because she has a vulnerable 10-week-old at home.
Oh, goodness.
I just want to remind everybody that just last week, in 2015, the FDA, who approves this for your toddler, also approved Theranos.
Okay?
Okay?
Theranos.
The scam of all scams.
An easy one to see, and the FDA walked it through.
Well, okay, so this... Around the world... Wait a minute, so the question, the question of... Never answered.
Never answered.
Of Moderna versus Pfizer, which was the original premise, was... And the way it was done at the beginning, when she says Moderna, it says, well, I know Moderna, which says lousy efficacy.
What, two ticks?
What?
Lousy.
And Pfizer!
And it's all bubbly when she says Pfizer.
This is just pathetic.
Well, NPR is just pathetic.
It's being spread around the world.
The message is out.
We're going to go through a whole new push for vaccination.
It'll be your booster.
Let's go to New South Wales, Australia.
So we have started a new wave.
We need to make it clear that previously we did tell you to get two doses and that that would provide protection against COVID.
But the virus has changed.
So now with Omicron the evidence is clear that we need three or in some cases four doses to provide the best protection against getting very sick.
But they're not so good at protecting us getting infected in the first place.
So, we need to act now to slow the spread of the virus in the community.
And I'm confident that as a community we can do, take those actions to slow the spread, as well as the individual actions of getting vaccinated, which fundamentally protects ourselves.
Okay, get ready for it.
This is important because when we have levels of sickness and absenteeism it impacts on the broad community in terms of its access to goods and services as we saw in January.
So we all have a part to play and by taking these simple steps we can really slow the spread and as I said vaccination is key for that individual protection.
But this is going to be a journey.
A journey?
It's actually a positive story that we have such good vaccines.
Whilst for many protected by the vaccine, you don't need to be hospitalized or you won't die.
Now she's stretching.
This is it.
If you take the vaccine, the third or maybe fourth, you won't need to be hospitalized.
You won't die.
You won't likely die.
You know, many of your friends, it's a little bit of potluck, you know, even that fit, healthy triathlete can be bedridden for a week with it.
So my message to everyone is, disregard anything we said about two doses, it's three doses or more.
So disregard, disregard, new message, new messaging, it's three doses or four.
So, the Canadian Health Minister, Jean-Yves Duclos.
But my message today, more specifically, is for those that haven't yet received their first booster.
The immunity conferred by a primary series of two doses of vaccines administered in 2021 has now waned.
While you might have gotten infected, risk is high you could get re-infected with all the downfall, including the risk of developing symptoms of long COVID.
Aha!
There it is!
As health experts and physicians will tell you, it's critical that you go and get the shot that's waiting for you.
So I think this long COVID is now being used as some kind of excuse.
Eh, the vaccine didn't work.
Eh, it's long COVID.
It's long COVID.
There's some annoying things out there.
One would be Haiti.
Haiti published their COVID deaths, COVID-19 deaths per million people.
And it's pretty much done there.
They have no deaths compared to any other country.
And what's interesting is that Haiti, uh, really didn't vaccinated citizens.
Vaccination rate 1.4% of the population.
So I think it's time for another earthquake in Haiti to shut those mofos up.
Yeah.
Yeah, definitely.
And a doubt, sorry.
Oh, it's gone.
Ed Dowd, we've played clips from him before.
He has been looking at Pfizer in particular from a former fund manager for Goldman Sachs for pharmaceuticals.
He's read through all of the documents that were supposed to be locked up for 75 years and his conclusion is this is the biggest short in the universe.
He says, you got to play it.
And he says he's not.
But he does have a clue.
He calls it the market tipping, that there's always a point where the market tips.
And he thinks we're very close.
And it has to do with this new round of vaccinations.
It's propaganda.
This is a propaganda war.
And that's why I'm all about the marginal mind and getting the message out.
I mean, I feel good because LinkedIn, the people who are connecting with me, at first it was Uh, you know, people you would suspect, but I have all sorts of different industries.
I have CEOs, CFOs connected with me and they, and the seed of doubt is in their head.
So, um, I do think it's spreading slowly at some point in all markets.
I'm a financial market guy.
There's always a tipping point.
And I think we're slowly approaching the tipping point.
Uh, and I, I think in the next six months we hit it.
Um, especially if they keep rolling out these boosters and now that they're There are parents lining up to jab their babies.
I mean, this is... I can't imagine what starts happening when babies start dying.
It's going to be horrendous.
There you go.
That's his tipping point.
When babies start dying.
Well, here's an interesting situation, and this is the headline.
Deaths with unknown causes are now Alberta's top killer.
Not that unknown thing going around.
So it was always, I guess it was anything but this, but here's the top 10 causes of deaths in 2021 in Alberta.
One, and this is by a wide margin, Ill-defined and unknown causes, number one.
Dementia, number two.
COVID-19 itself, number three.
Oh, goodness.
And then listen to the rest of them, which all seem to have a similar thing to one.
Chronic ischemic heart disease, malignant neoplasms of the trachea.
Acute myocardial infarction, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes, stroke, and accidental poisoning.
That's how it rounds out.
There's no vaccine deaths on there at all?
That's not in the top ten?
Any vaccine?
Any pharmaceutical products.
No, those are actually the number of vaccine deaths in general are very low but the COVID vaccine deaths aren't counted except on the VAERS and here and there and they're hard to document and I'm assuming that the ill-defined unknown causes is the COVID vaccine.
Of course it is.
I mean, that seems so logical.
There's no other new factor.
And if that doesn't get you, myocarditis will.
Yeah.
Goodness.
Okay, there's another health crisis that we're living through.
By the way, this list has never been this way.
It's always been ill-defined.
It's probably been numbered 12 or 14.
It's never been on the list.
Do you have historical lists for us to look at so we know that for sure?
No.
Okay.
I'm sure we've looked at them before.
It's a news article in CTV News, Calgary.
So, what we do have in the United States for sure... Oh, by the way, one more little note.
Within the article, there's not one mention that possibly the ill-defined unknown causes might be vaccines.
No, that's not even mentioned in the entire article that it could have any negative effects.
Of course not.
They're keeping with the... What are you, what magazine was this?
What publication?
CTV, Canadian television.
Do they take advertising?
Yeah, but it's mostly for, it looks like camper vans mostly in here.
Of course they take advertising, they probably get a lot... No pharma, no pharma, no pharma advertising.
No pharma in Canada, no.
No, that's only here.
And so I have a couple of clips I want to play before we take our first break.
We do have a long break, a sad puppy delivered.
So we have a mental health crisis.
This is what we keep hearing over and over and over again.
Mental health crisis.
And the climate shills at the World Health Organization, who knew?
They have, at least they can tell us what the cause is according to them.
And this is one of those hip viral things they did where all these different people who work at the World Health Organization are walking on a path and with a selfie, you know, to make it seem a little more real and urgent.
I mean, clearly, again, not advised by the Curry Dvorak Consulting Group.
So here it is.
Have you ever heard about terms such as solastalia, ecological grief, or ecoanxiety?
These are being used to describe the negative impact of climate change on our well-being and mental health.
At the World Health Organization, we're ringing alarm bells about the growing impact of climate change on our mental health.
Imagine a family losing their home in a flood, a drought, or a wildfire that destroys the crops, resulting in hunger, poverty, and loss of livelihood.
We're a teenager living on an island, faced with the horror that soon what she calls home might be submerged due to rising sea levels.
What we know is climate change does impact our mental health.
And for some people, the impacts can be overwhelming, leading to feelings like fear, anxiety, depression, and helplessness.
And it can also increase the risk of developing a mental health condition.
And vulnerable groups like indigenous people, communities living in areas prone to climate-related disasters, and young people are disproportionately affected.
Did you know that there are nearly a billion people living worldwide with a mental health condition today?
And yet governments spend, on average, just 2% of their health budgets on mental health.
But there's good news.
Many of the things that we need to do to cut carbon emissions, such as walking or cycling or spending time in nature, are also good for our mental as well as our physical health.
Let's bring mental health to our response to climate crisis.
Let's work with real experts, the communities and people affected.
Let's promote climate-based action for the health of us and our planet, and a climate just world.
OK, so OK, I give you 10 points for that one.
That is using mental health because of climate change.
And I was thinking about I was listening to that clip.
Remember the clips we used to play?
You'll never be able to find them.
Of the poor girls, there was some climate protests and there was a couple of like middle schoolers, these little middle schoolers.
And she's crying like a baby.
What are we going to do?
Nobody's helping.
The world's coming to an end.
Literally crying like a baby.
You know, Barry woman thought her dreams were in jeopardy when she got so sick she had to drop out of high school.
Is that it?
No, but that's a good one.
We got a lot of that.
Well, the thing is, Yeah.
I'm sure there's lots of mental health problems and there are a lot of different causes.
And no doubt the messaging over climate change is going to make someone who already is anxious a lot more anxious because you're being told by representatives around the world that we're all going to die, it's too late.
Shame on you!
How dare you!
You know, Greta, the whole thing.
So yeah, of course that has influence, but I think we assert collectively, and I was happy to see Tucker, I didn't clip it, but I was happy to see Tucker finally do it, catch up to us, that these SSRIs and other antidepressants, which certainly in the United States, kids are just being spoon-fed from a very early age, that this doesn't seem to be helping them.
They seem to be very easily triggered and more anxious than ever.
To which, of course, you get, you know, the different chemical compound that you take in addition to this.
Hey, if this one, if your luprazine isn't working, then take this thing in addition to it.
It's crazy what we're selling to people and what we're advertising and what we're actually giving children.
And there's a correlation.
And a correlation when it comes to kids going crazy and doing crazy shit.
So what you never hear about is when it comes to mass shooters, if they also were on any form of antidepressant or SSRI, and it seems going back to Columbine, that there's a very high correlation of this.
In addition, the happiest MF place on earth, which is continuously, year after year, poll after poll, is Denmark.
Denmark.
We all should be like Denmark.
It's everyone so happy, they have free school and free healthcare, and it's fantastic, and some kid goes apeshit and kills a whole bunch of people with a rifle in a mall.
You can't even look at a gun in a picture in Denmark.
But what is Denmark also number one in, we know?
Antidepressants and SSRIs.
No wonder they're parens happy.
So when we had, and I don't think either of us feel any need.
Clip Custodian did a whole bunch of clips about the, what are you laughing about, bro?
Well, I think Quote would be better than parens.
I just wanted to call back.
I know, you wanted to say it, but you have plenty of opportunities.
I'm sorry, okay?
I'm a newbie.
I'm trying.
So, in the United States, it started with Ritalin.
Your son's a little busy.
You gotta calm that shithead down.
Boom, Ritalin.
Adderall, don't forget, put that in there.
Adderall is numero uno.
It's like currency in colleges these days.
So there's a correlation, which of course will not be spoken about.
And I wonder what kind of deal Tucker Carlson has that he can actually go that far on Fox News.
That was interesting.
Although he seems to have a lot of leeway in that.
Like, OK, just give us this one hour.
Let him do it.
Let him say whatever he wants to say.
We'll call him a crackpot.
So this kid, This obvious and disturbed nut job in Highland Park.
In Illinois, where by the way, you know, I think they have an assault weapon ban there.
It wasn't even an AR-15, it was a whole different type of weapon, like they call an AR pistol, but basically a 9mm with a foldable stock.
So there's all kinds of things wrong with the story.
Police knew about him, he had threatened to commit suicide in 2019.
The whole thing, he was known, they checked his house out, and you know, they have red flag laws, on and on and on and on.
That's not interesting.
What's interesting is what is enabling these kids to either be triggered to do this, or coerced, or pushed over the edge.
What is it?
Is it gaming?
Is it social media?
Yeah, I think it's all of that, but most importantly, it's the drugs.
And so now, I'm going to go back to two weeks ago, there was a documentary on PBS And it was, it kind of went under the wire.
I don't know what crisis we were in when this happened.
And it turns out that there's wide-reaching, very, very replicable, provable evidence that there's a huge difference between Conservative brains and liberal brains.
And I'm trying not to attach a political side to it, but it's obvious.
Democrats, Republicans in the United States.
But there's an actual difference in the brains of people.
And the question is, are you born with it?
Is it plasticity?
Is it something that develops?
Here's a little bit from that documentary.
Montague has found a link between a person's politics and one basic reaction.
Disgust.
He has volunteers go into an MRI scanner where they look at a series of images.
I show them somebody with a knife to somebody else's throat.
Physically threatening stimulus.
A dead corpse.
Something that was gross, like flies on a salad or something like this.
These things elicit responses in your nervous system, and we record their brain activity.
And they go into a booth, and they answer a political ideology survey.
How do you feel about gun control, abortion, premarital sex, things like that.
Montague's results are striking.
The greater the disgust response in the brain, the more conservative the person is likely to be.
A smaller response correlates with a more liberal outlook.
The shocking part is that your response to a single disgusting image can predict your score on that test with 95% accuracy.
So there's a lot of research about this, and of course, no surprise, it has to do with the amygdala, with other parts of the brain, and literally it's the size and development of these parts of the brain.
If you just do a scan, you can say that person is liberal, that person is conservative.
I have one example from a TED talk that Jonathan Haidt did.
I like him because he wrote The Coddling of the American Mind, basically documenting the woke culture, and here's just the opening to that so you get a definite understanding of this very pronounced difference.
Suppose that two American friends are traveling together in Italy.
They go to see Michelangelo's David.
And when they finally come face-to-face with the statue, they both freeze dead in their tracks.
The first guy, we'll call him Adam, is transfixed by the beauty of the perfect human form.
The second guy, we'll call him Bill, is transfixed by embarrassment at staring at the thing there in the center.
So here's my question for you.
Which one of these two guys was more likely to have voted for George Bush?
Which for Al Gore?
I don't need to show hands because we all have the same political stereotypes.
We all know that it's Bill.
And in this case, the stereotype corresponds to a reality.
It really is a fact that liberals are much higher than conservatives on a major personality trait called openness to experience.
People who are high on openness to experience just crave novelty, variety, diversity, new ideas, travel.
People low on it like things that are familiar, that are safe and dependable.
If you know about this trait, you can understand a lot of puzzles about human behavior.
You can understand why artists are so different from accountants.
You can actually predict what kinds of books they like to read, what kinds of places they like to travel to, and what kinds of food they like to eat.
Once you understand this trait, you can understand why anybody would eat at Applebee's, but not anybody that you know.
So, great, great example.
So, the question.
Since SSRIs and antidepressants, it's actually not really well known how these serotonin intake receptors and inhibitors work.
The question is, do you think at some point there was a decision that was like, you know, if we can stimulate this leftist thinking brain, we'll have a lot more people who are with us.
Let's drug the kids with this shit.
Do you think that's possible?
Uh, I hate to say that yes, I think it is possible.
I don't know.
No one can really tell you how they work.
The problem I have with the thinking is that you'd have to pre-know the effects.
I mean, you could have drugged these kids with SSRIs and they became a bunch of Nazis.
Over the long term because this is right, but if you combine it if you combine that with the woke teaching culture We've created in the past 25 years or whatever it is Then they're definitely okay.
Let's put it this way.
They're just trying anything they can and maybe that's an element Right.
It would be everything.
It would be shocking.
It would be shocking, but if not, not beyond the realm of possibility that that would actually, no, we've really got to do this.
We'll get a whole bunch of docile people.
And by the way, spoiler in a society, you need kind of both people.
You need people who, you know, defend and fight and, you know, provide and, and have leadership, uh, which would be kind of this conservative size brain.
And you also need people who are going to develop a technology and, and yes, eat a bug from time to time.
Well, the Brave New World book by Huxley... Soma!
Soma!
...kind of discusses it.
This plays into a couple of clips I have.
Oh, Groovy.
I love it when that happens.
Groovy!
So there's this little cafe in Philadelphia called the... Yes, this is a good story.
The Minute Cafe.
Yeah.
And this is the end result of Noodle Boy thinking.
We had our Noodle Boy clip where it's the guy who wants to take over the bees.
You know, if these guys let us run it, you know.
This actually happened in this cafe where the two owners, who were woke queers, as they would have it.
Queers.
Queer.
Yeah, okay.
Woke queers.
Queers.
They were woke queers, and there was a queer-friendly environment they were making where it was a coffee shop specifically for the LGBTQ, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Blah, blah, blah.
And it was woke, super woke, and the employees were super woke.
And so it got to the point where the employees turned on the owners, the two people that ran it.
There's actually a third owner that actually literally owned the property.
It had nothing to do with the place.
And they forced them to go public, the two owners, with a confession.
Like one of those things that you used to see during the Korean War where the prisoner was taken to the front, and they filmed going, America is a terrible place, and I have come here as a...
And they're blinking in Morse code at the same time?
Yes, blinking in Morse code.
I know the setting, sure.
The problem is these guys aren't blinking in Morse code.
And they're semi-sincere and pathetic.
And one is a woman who's got some nose rings and a red hair job.
I can't figure... I think she's a woman.
I don't know what she... I don't know the pronoun, so I could be screwing this up.
And the other one who keeps... I thought he... it's a he-looking person, but his name is Kate.
But when you hear him introduce himself, or she, or it, or it's she, I don't know.
Them.
Themselves.
Them.
When they introduce themselves...
Uh, he, they, them says Cave, I think.
And this is what I hear.
My name's Cave.
And I thought that was a pretty cool name to have, uh, for being this guy.
But here they are, uh, part one of them confessing to their wrongdoing and how they're going to have to turn the company over to the noodle boys who took it over.
This is Sonam and Kate from Nina's World.
We're going live as part of a radical accountability process.
Radical accountability process.
We're complicit in the gentrification and anti-blackness on 52nd Street.
We've put our community at risk with our presence as well as our workers.
In particular, this was highlighted by inaction from us, and we're here to take responsibility for that inaction and for the harm that we caused.
With the guidance of the Workers and Black and Brown Workers Collective, we're trying to raise funds to buy the business and turn it over to our staff.
As the owners of the space, we put our workers in harm's way.
Each day that we're open and we want to recognize that harm and want to uplift their concerns and needs, Um, we want to, uh, be accountable for our complicitness and, uh, our complicitness with gentrification and our engagement with anti-blackness, um, in that gentrification.
And in that space.
And in that space, yeah.
The workers of Nina's World deserve so much more.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, what kind of space?
A nut space?
No, in that space.
Oh, I thought... I'm sorry.
Um, in that gentrification... No, wait, wait.
We said you stopped it.
If you back it up to that point again, why is that necessary for her to interrupt the guy, Kate?
Interrupt Kate by saying, in that space.
So that's wordage that is needed.
Oh, oh yes.
That is because, what I think, the gentrification is only taking place with them.
Let's not imply the neighbors.
Or anyone else.
Gentrification is only in that establishment.
That's why they're saying that.
Oh, that's what she was referring to.
Space.
I think so.
Their little cafe.
Yes.
It's called women-splaining, John.
Women-splaining.
Okay, I get it.
Gentrification and our engagement with anti-blackness in that gentrification.
And in that space.
And in that space, yeah.
The workers of Nino's World deserve so much more.
They have worked beyond their means.
They have made the space what it is and our ultimate goal is to return the space to them and give them the shop that they truly deserve to have.
And what we're asking you to do right now is to stay tuned for a funder so that we can raise the funds to turn over the space to them and to make sure that they get to have Nina's World in the way that they have envisioned it and rightfully should have it.
Okay, so let me just see if I understand this because I knew that you were on it when it was in the newsletter.
I didn't have to follow it.
Um...
So because of the evil of the space, of the owners of the space, not just the owners, but the entire place has been one gentrifying meat grinder, and it's so horrible that they now recognize the error of their ways, they're going to fire themselves, I would hope, so that the queer, the black and brown community, they will gift it to them, no tax implication, they will gift it to them, After raising this money.
Oh, no tax implications, no issues at all.
And so that they can then run it and I guess have no debt on the money raised.
It'll just be a gift.
And that's the whole idea.
And the owners said what?
The owners said what?
What did the owners say?
Well, these are the two.
These are the owners?
Yes.
Get the heck out of town.
So the owners, they just want to sell and get out of this place before all hell breaks loose, and they're playing a game.
No, they don't.
Okay, here's the way I deconstructed it.
These two are the managers, and they represent a third party, which is mentioned in the second clip, who I think owns it, but there's nothing to do with it.
You know, it's like a Soros deal.
It's like somebody in the background owns, has the lease on the property or has something to do with it, but he's not part of this because he's not running it.
He just said, I have a good idea.
Can I find two people that can co-own it with me?
And it's kind of an ownership bullcrap role when you're not really the owner.
And you two run it and you have to be, are you gay?
Yeah, I'm gay.
Are you?
Queer.
You're queer, I'm queer, I'm queer too.
And so it's like, there's notes on the list of demands that something called ableism, which I have no idea what that offense is.
I can explain that.
That means when you don't, when you are biased against people who are disabled or invalid.
Okay, well they're ableists.
Sure, I'm sure they are.
And so they got condemned by their by their employees, and this is the two of them, and since they don't really own the place, even though they're the owners, they are going to do a funder, which I thought was a good word.
Funder.
A funder to get the money to buy out the third guy so they can have property rights, and then give it, after going through all the trouble of getting the money to buy the place, then gift it to the employees who will run it into the ground, no doubt.
within a month and declare bankruptcy if they even know how to do that.
But that's kind of the, yeah, these are the two, these are the two bosses, as it were.
Okay.
They just bought into the noodle boy thing.
They can't not do that.
Let's play part two and you get the last.
Well, before we get to that, could we now surmise, since you tied it into my clips, that these two have also had a lifetime of better living through chemical additions to their diet?
I don't...
In the case of Cave or Kate, I would say for sure.
The other woman just... I don't know.
She... I don't know what... She doesn't talk much.
She does all the talking.
Because he's the man who should be more contrite.
I think that's the reason.
Okay.
We're trying to work with a third owner to buy the business and the property.
We're asking for funds so that we can do that.
Our ownership and our place as a business and the owners of that business on 52nd Street have caused harm.
And the exploitation of our workers and gentrifying the neighborhood.
Are they shutting it down until then?
What are they doing?
I have no idea.
I think it's... I may be shut down as we speak.
I mean, this is happening.
It's just a pathetic situation.
It's a little coffee shop.
That's what it is.
It's a coffee shop.
This happened at the... It's not like, you know, the Ford Motor Company is...
Build a plant there.
Well, if you recall in Austin, when it was, uh, defund the police, uh, Mellow Johnny's, I think it's called Mellow Johnny's, which is a famous bike shop in Austin.
Uh, they also have a coffee bar.
Uh, but they serviced all the police bikes.
They immediately went, oh no, no more, no more cop bikes here, which is 80% of their business.
It's really interesting that this must be the work of SSRIs as well.
It has to be.
Yeah, I speak to kids.
They're like, yeah, yeah, everything seems a little nicer now.
I'm a little drowsy.
There's all kinds of things that don't really work well anymore.
Well, with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you, the man who just put the C's in the cafe, Confessions.
Ladies and gentlemen, put your hands together for Mr. John C.
My goodness, you're making a racket today.
Eight in the morning to the trolls in the troll room.
Let's count them right now.
How many trolls do we have as they scurry away?
My goodness, you're making a racket today.
Eight in the morning to the trolls in the troll room.
Let's count them right now.
How many trolls do we have?
They scurry away.
We have 1,876 trolls on this Thursday.
And thank you very much for showing up for the show.
In fact, I thank everybody for showing up, whether you're listening to this on the podcast or not.
These are going to be interesting times moving forward.
We chose the value for value model a decade and a half ago, and I'm pretty sure that the interruptive ad-based media model is going to have to shrink in whatever economic times we go through.
But thanks to our value for value model, we don't have to rely on one or two ad agencies who we have to go have meetings with and do all kinds of horrendous things with advertisers just to be able to speak at all and then not be able to speak.
They will, of course, censor what we say.
You can't speak freely.
We have our own infrastructure, so we can't be thrown off of Amazon, et cetera.
I think that we're going into a period which will be very similar to COVID, where it's very confusing.
A lot of stuff is happening.
You're seeing it now.
And with addition to that, we're going to get more COVID.
So I thank everybody who supported the show today for letting me keep the job I love.
So that includes you trolls.
Love seeing you there.

Big thank you to the artist for episode 1465, a brand new word we came up with, Sathiest was the title of it.
And the artwork was brought to us by, oh, how come it's not showing here?
Sir Paul Couture.
Sir Paul Couture, yes, Sir Paul Couture.
Who, of course, is artist number one on the No Agenda Art Generator?
Actually, the guys who started the art generators, there was an original one, it was done by Couture and Randy Asher.
Yes, that was the Drupal version.
Wasn't that the Drupal thing that just kept farting and breaking all the time?
Oh, Drupal.
Drupal.
Drupal.
I think Drupal is the one who does the drag queen stuff.
We're talking about Drupal.
Headless Drupal.
Headless Drupal.
drag queen stuff.
We're talking about Drupal.
Headless Drupal.
Headless Drupal.
Exactly.
Yes.
Okay.
You were going to make a point.
Yeah.
I was just going to say, I think, uh, Asher's overboard sometime ago.
Oh, that's too bad.
Well, Sir Paul Couture is still, uh, artist number one on the, uh, in the art generator in this new version of the art generator.
And it was really nice.
He maintains the art generator.
Yeah, he does.
Yeah.
That's why he's number one.
He literally has artists slash one.
It's just kind of cool.
Shut it down.
Make him mad.
No, let's not do that.
Now, he sent us something we thought was perfect for the 4th of July, which was a little bit of cheesecake.
A little cheesecake-y.
A little cheesecake-y.
Cartoon-y.
Cartoon-y cheesecake-y, so it's just cartoon cheesecake.
But at least it was equal opportunity.
Now, it was a brunette instead of a blonde.
Usually it's a blonde when we go for it.
But it was very patriotic, you know?
Got a nice flag, got you no agenda, and a cheesecake.
What more do you want?
There were three or four cheesecake pieces that came through.
JCD Girls, you know, just making fun of my penchant for this sort of art.
Nestworks did Buggy the Vampire, which is not going to fly.
I didn't quite get it.
And then Cheesecake Independence by Nestworks was another one.
There wasn't, was there anything else that was, because we're always looking for something that says, hey, this is a special day and the people also got their titles.
Yeah, as opposed to the tongue.
The tongue people had for some reason had this.
Well, that was that.
Referred to something we.
Yeah, that was what I read from Little House on the Prairie.
We're still licking them.
We're still licking the British.
Totally right.
Still licking the British.
And that was not going to cut it.
And the rest of it was, no, there was not enough.
The fact was that Couture hit the nail with this thing.
So, it's fine.
Not much else to criticize.
I think you're right.
It wasn't... The offering just wasn't quite...
It wasn't quite there.
Captain's Agenda had a nice try with the Liberty Tractor, which had some thought.
It had merit, had merit to it.
Yeah.
Definitely.
I personally, I like the comic strip blogger Hart with the broken British flag and U.S.
flag.
Yeah, you did like that.
Yeah, and you nixed it right.
I don't like that!
Yeah, because...
Yeah, it's... I don't know why, I mean, I didn't dislike it.
You hate comic strip blogger, let's just face it.
Let's be honest, you dislike him.
I love my Slavic brother.
Oh goodness, now you've started it.
I love my Slavic brother.
Thank you very much, Sir Paul Couture.
Highly appreciated.
Thank you so much for also maintaining the fart generator, always being available when something burps or farts and you're always working on it and we know that and we appreciate it.
For those who listen in real time, you can actually refresh noagenderartgenerator.com, see the art as the artists are doing it.
This is how it works.
They're listening live and we choose right after the show, whatever strikes our fancy.
We do have some very unclear means that we arrive at that.
We always try to explain our actions.
And you can also see all of these if you're listening after the fact in a modern podcast app, which you can get from newpodcastapps.com.
I realize that sometimes it sounds like I'm saying nudepodcastapps.com.
So we have that registered as well, just in case you misheard me.
And any one of those apps can show you this artwork in chapters, in synchronized time.
So as we're speaking, when we talk about the art, Dreb Scott makes sure it actually is right there on the screen.
Also fun in the car.
And let's thank our executive and associate executive producers for episode 1466.
We kick it and a nice list today.
Tell us how you came about the sad puppy, John, because you did send out our Beagle for the newsletter.
Well, first I sent out the Beagle and then the response was like, excuse me, there was no response.
And so after two hours.
And by response you mean click throughs even?
Just people opening the email?
No, donations.
If you, everybody, there's a few people out there that understand direct marketing and they used to be in the olden days with the mailing and all the rest.
There's a timing thing involved.
You could tell what you're going to do after two hours, four hours, six hours, and then you can, at that point you can estimate the total.
Pretty common, it's pretty standard, it happens, it's pretty, It's pretty, uh, it's like clockwork.
It's, you know, statistical.
And there was nothing that showed up in two hours, like four donations, which is, they're all 25 bucks.
That's very odd.
Yeah, exactly.
So I thought that was screwy.
So I sent out the, the plain text.
Please.
Hey, you know, note that there's news there when I did get a couple of responses back saying I never got the newsletter.
And then I got a number of responses said that it's a phrase.
It's it.
I found it.
It's in spam.
And it's never been in spam before.
And I surmised Google.
Of course.
Google's always changed, because everybody uses Gmail, which is unfortunate, to say the least.
But Google, they change their algorithms every so often, at least once or twice a year, and July 1st would be a good time to do it.
It's halfway through the year.
And just change everything, and then see what happens.
Don't say anything, because heaven forbid you get a bunch of attention, because Google doesn't like that.
No.
Just do it.
Just do it, like Nike.
Well, especially MailChimp, who I think does not pay any vigs to the companies to accept them and whitelist them.
And they shouldn't have to, by the way.
No, well, no, they shouldn't have to.
Because that's what, you know, the email should be, you should be the one that determines what's spam and what's not.
Google predetermines it.
Yep.
Oh, I don't know, it looks like spam to me.
And so... Or promotion.
Promotion.
Most of our stuff goes into promotion.
Oh, too many photos.
Must be promotion.
Because nobody uses... Even though Google and the rest of these assholes will say, Oh, you know, uh, you want to use HTML mail because it's cooler.
Use HTML mail.
Use HTML mail.
Because HTML mail is cool.
So use that.
If you want to use it, yeah, cool.
Okay, good.
But once you use it, Then they put everything into spam!
I mean, maybe they're telling you to use it to see if you're a spammer, but I don't think so.
It's a newsletter, a real newsletter.
People subscribe.
They're subscribers.
It should not be showing up in the spam box.
It shows that their mailing system sucks.
Now, and I can say that because if I send out a plain text message with the exact same mailing list, everybody gets it.
Yeah.
So much for HTML mail being so great.
So, um, anyway, so I did that and it got a decent response and people said, Oh yeah.
And everyone had their own theories about why it was, uh, and a few of them blame MailChimp and, you know, just the, it's Google.
I'm telling you right now, that's who it is.
Let me explain.
Allow me to explain how a value for value works for podcasters who may be listening.
If you think you can just say, hey, you know what?
Send us whatever you want.
You're going to be disappointed because you need to ask.
The Keeper, Tina The Keeper, semi-retired communications, corporate executive, C-suite level, has always taught me the number one reason people do not donate to nonprofits.
That's what she's worked in her whole life.
It's because they weren't asked.
It's unbelievable how stupid some people are.
So you have to develop an ask, which we do in the donation segment, which is the feedback loop, which is critical to the method working.
It's critical.
You need to ask people.
And the newsletter is always informative, interesting.
It's a reminder because, as you always say, John, there's a million things going on in people's lives.
They don't always remember to check their podcast app.
So we need to remind them and remind them that they need to support the show.
And it's still only for 4%.
But what's amazing Is that somehow it evens out and over time, yeah, it's a yo-yo, it's a roller coaster, you don't have a stable income.
Well, yeah, that's the disappointing part about it because it needs to be more consistent because otherwise you have this short breeze.
We went, we had like six people last show that were executive producers.
Now we got like, I don't know, 25.
Oh my goodness.
It's a lot.
It does balance out, but it makes a lot.
And that's just the nature of the beast.
I don't think we can control that.
There's no way to do it.
Um, this is how people operate.
So yeah, you go from, and it literally costs airtime.
We had a lot of airtime that we were able to fill with other things on the last show.
Today will go long.
I mean, it's, but, The number one thing I said earlier, thank you.
I love doing this job.
So thank you to Sir Kevin Dills, the Duke of North Carolina, who tops us off right there, starting with a... I don't know how many times we've seen this one.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6?
$1,234.56 from Huntsville, North Carolina.
He says, message received, no jingles, just karma.
Thank you, Sir Kevin Dills, Duke of North Carolina.
Douchback.
Oh, man.
Sorry.
Nice going.
Let me immediately correct that.
You've been de-douched.
Woo-hoo.
You've got Carmen.
Sorry about that.
You have to buy him a beer.
I gotta buy him a couple of beers.
Debbie J. Cornyn in Pincher Creek, Alberta.
1335.71.
That's an odd one.
Well, it's, uh, isn't that Leet?
Leet One?
Leest?
Leest?
No, I think it came in as, uh... Oh, it's Canuck Bucks.
No, that's her dollar reduce.
Yeah, it was Canadian money.
This donation, 1-2-3-5-7-1 in Canuck Bucks is to bring me to damehood and to make my sister an insta-dame.
Oh!
Accounting below.
I'd like to be named Dame Flying Fish of Canuckistan and Barbados.
For the roundtable, may I have Lionfish and Prosecco.
My sister Kim shall be Dame Kim of the sparkling eyes and sweet smiles.
She would like chocolate cake and cappuccino at the roundtable.
Are they both on the list?
Let me check.
Kim was severely brain damaged at birth due to a doctor's incompetence and doesn't have what most people consider official accredation.
So I'd like her to have this.
She lives in a group home in BC and couldn't resume any outside activities unless she was vaxxed.
A year later, she is under the circumstances, although a life no one would choose.
She has made every member of our family and close friends who knew her better people.
She has taught us about compassion, consideration, and duty to help others with challenging lives.
I heard that Anna Navarro clip from show 1463 promoting abortion because she has relatives with difficulties.
And I think it's unfortunate that she doesn't appear to have learned these lessons.
No kidding.
And, uh, she says, uh, finish off.
I'd just like an F Cancer jingle for Kim and Yak Karma for your show, as your show continues to support me and guard my sanity.
Thank you very much, and I love you both.
Yeah, thank you very much, Debbie.
And we have everything, we have all the accoutrements, and we'll see both of you on the podium in just a little bit.
You've got karma.
Quint Y. Newell.
Quint Newell in Olympia, Washington.

To the rescue!
In the morning, gents, this should make me a knight, but we can deal with that later.
Trying to keep it tight.
Dealer's Choice and more to come.
Donations and thoughts, but for now, keep up the great work.
Cue... Dealer's Choice... and the flipper...
That's what you get for a dealer's choice, you get the dealer's choice jingle.
Oh, that's funny.
Yeah.
That's one way to put a stop to it.
Thanks, Quinn.
Miles Fonda in Sagal, I guess, or Idaho, 67878.
This makes me a knight.
I'd like to credit all my past donations to my best bud, TJ, plus give him the knighthood.
Oh, wow.
Uh, his ex is a piece of steaming poo.
And he needs some love.
Jobs, karma, plus fat bitch for TJ.
Sir TJ the Wrathful, but understandably so.
Fat bitch!
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
Let's vote for jobs!
You've got karma.
Alrighty then.
I'm sure she doesn't listen to the show either.
Anthony, no, that's probably one of the issues with the relationship.
Maybe.
Anthony Renna is from Simpsonville, South Carolina, 56789.
We love these.
John and Adam, thank you for your courage.
With this donation, I achieve knight status.
Please knight me Serenity, R-E-N-N-A-T-Y, of the Smoky Mountains.
I've been a fan of both for years.
Keep up the phenomenal work and thank you very much.
We'll see you later.
It's going to be busy at the round table.
Yeah, it's gonna be cramped.
Craig Nuzzo in Naperville, Illinois, 500.
Uh, thanks for the show.
You're welcome.
This does, uh, this brings me to knighthood.
Since I have donated in the past, please knight me a sir dude named Craig.
No jingles or karma.
I'm fine listening to whatever it is at the round table, sharing whatever it is at the round table.
I have some leftover mead, which you will all enjoy, no doubt.
Thanks, Craig.
Love those notes.
Same goes for, oh, here he comes, higher on the list than usual.
Sir Kevin McLaughlin, Duke of Luna, lover of America, and boobs.
Hello, Sir Kevin McLaughlin, Duke of Luna, lover of America and boobs here.
His donation, 45678.
Message received.
I am truly grateful for the show.
Jingle request.
Any Club 33 jingle.
General health karma for the entire No Agenda tribe.
Thank you.
Well, there, of course, is really only one jingle we can play when it comes to that.
Straight from Reseda, here she is, Raven!
Give it up!
You've got karma.
Lyle Poat in Concord, North Carolina.
This donation is split between me and my smoking hot wife, Kara.
8.08 is for Kara.
So de-douche her, please, and tell her what 8.00 means.
Hold on.
You've been de-douched.
It's Hacksaw for boob.
That's right.
The rest of my journey, this is the rest of my journey to knighthood as, or the rest is for my journey to knighthood.
As always, love the show.
No jingles, no karma.
Boom.
All right.
Thank you, Sir Ryan Chase, Sir Snacking Ham, Snacking Ham of the Black Forest, 350, Coeur d'Alene, Coeur d'Alene, Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.
Hi guys.
This donation is from my smoking hot wife, Courtney's 40th trip around the sun today, July 7th.
You might remember Courtney from a recent donation with our human resource saying, we go out and we hit dogs in the mouth and Joe Biden is hiding in there.
Wait a minute.
I remember that.
Hold on.
Is hiding.
That was a pretty funny one.
Is this the one we had?
The government and the main... No, that's not it.
Ah, I don't remember the kid Biden hiding.
Hmm.
Oh, can't find it.
I'll have to look it up, because it was very funny.
I remember that.
That was referring to the dimly lit bathroom at the restaurant.
This donation will bring Courtney to a dame, and she will now be known as Dame Courtney of the Chicken Coop.
She will have Mergo Sparkling Brut Rose.
Is that any good?
Mergo?
What is Mergo?
Familiar with the Mergo?
I think it's a Spanish cave, a cave or whatever they want to call it.
It's a sparkling wine from Spain, I think.
I don't know.
Interesting choice.
It's not on my list, it's not in my cellar.
No, it's an interesting choice regardless.
I mean, the more we learn about these things.
Okay, so we have that ordered for you.
So that's the Mergo Sparkling Brut Rose and Homemade Brioche.
And here it comes.
Sweetheart.
I may have dropped the ball on planning our party, but I'm definitely not dropping the ball on this donation.
Happy birthday for me and our three human resources.
We love you.
That guy fucked up big, didn't he?
He really messed it up.
Jingles, biscuit on my birthday, you're gonna die.
I think it's... that would be... I don't know if that's so... Okay, kid, we're all gonna die.
Fauci, wheeze.
I did that.
I don't have an I did that.
That's a sticker.
I know that.
The Human Resources love the goat karma, so we'll add that.
Thanks for the best podcast in the universe, Sir Chase, Ryan Chase, Sir Snacking Ham of the Black Forest in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.
They always give me a biscuit on my birthday.
We're all gonna die!
Please?
No, stop.
Stop.
Everything's out of control.
Everything's out of control today.
Things are going wrong.
I'll throw in the goat now.
Here we go.
You've got...
It's muscle memory.
Like a bad muscle muscle.
Murgo is a southern Italian sparkling wine like a Prosecco, but it's not.
It's made more like a champagne.
I have had this actual wine that he's talking about.
Cause I'm looking at the label and I just never, I just thought it was something else.
It's actually quite good.
So you have had it?
I have had this wine.
I may have a bottle in the cellar as we speak.
Oh man, we need a picture of your cellar.
Do you have a table in there?
A wooden table with wooden chairs and a candle?
Yeah, a dead whore.
Okay.
Sure Black Knight of the Mainframe Assemblers is up in Tucson, Arizona.
3-4-5-6-7.
Love these.
Yeah, these are great numbers.
From Sure Black Knight.
Southern Arizona is in serious need of the rain stick.
Saw the sad puppy and your follow-on email of despair.
Yes.
We need rain.
So a rain stick and goat karma, please.
I'm a little conflicted about doing this kind of stuff.
Yeah.
What do you think?
Didn't we retire the rain stick?
No, we never retired the rain stick ever.
What are you talking about?
But in a donation segment, I'm a little worried about that.
It could have far-reaching consequences.
We already have a citation.
Well, you're closer.
I'm not really... I'll tell you what.
We'll give it a chance.
You give it one shake.
I'm not gonna do anything.
Okay.
Alright, the Rain Stick Authority is already pissed at us, so I'm just gonna give one shake for Arizona with a twist at the end.
Ooh, I can smell the rain.
You've got...
He can smell the rain.
Okay, let me know how that goes.
Mr. Matt of the Growing Tree and Bend Soup Club in Bend, Oregon. 333.85.
ITM, Adam and John, I did some quick accounting today to see how my journey to knighthood was progressing when I realized that my previous three donations came to a total of $333.85.
Which is weird because they're all a weird donation.
Yeah, that is interesting.
I figured this was a sign and represents the amount of today's donation.
333.85.
Shout out to my smoking hot wife, Deborah!
Some yak karma for all our Central Oregon comrades, please.
Sir Matt at the Growing Tree and Bend Soup Club.
You've got 333.34 from Sir Ichabod of the bike path Gorbel, Lake Forest, Washington.
My three one-third dollars for the last 100 excellent episodes.
How about that?
To further John's quest for short notes, I will just leave these three jingles for the producers to contemplate.
Okay, we have these.
Shut up, slave.
Uh, John, oh, uh, Spooky John Donate, ISIS.
Okay, Spooky John Donate, and then we have, uh, Spooky John, what was the other one?
ISIS.
ISIS, uh, yes, we have that.
Okay, and that was it.
That looks like it.
Shut up, slave!
Donate!
Donate to No Agenda!
They give us shows week after week!

Science is turning into a clique!
This is how we also take advantage of the SSRIs you all are on.
It works.
Craig Mastrom in Seattle, 333.34.
Please de-douche for a 33 turning 34.
You've been de-douched.
If possible, like a yak and goat land buying karma, simultaneously, millennial freedom notice, open carry and public nudity are both legal here in the once great Seattle.
Just don't point it at anyone.
I always appreciate a good gun penis joke.
You've got There's your goat and yak.
Madison McClure is in Park City, Utah, 333.33.
The sad puppy did nothing for me, but the great Memage did.
I want to reward John's excellent selection of memes.
Pretty much everyone made me crack up.
Also, I deserve Damehood now, but can't think of a good name, so for now, just Dame Jane.
And you got it, Dame Jane.
Thank you very much.
Looking forward to seeing you at the podium.
It's much appreciated.
Thank you for the compliment.
Noah Maxwell in Fiddleton, California.
Fiddleton, 333.33.
Keep up the great work, gentlemen.
Also, can I confirm your human resource karma works?
I can confirm it works.
No jingles, no karma.
All right.
So your child shall be named Adam or John, or could be Adam John II or John Adams.
Ooh, there you go.
John Adams is good.
Jeff Costas, 333.33, Middleburg, Florida.
I'm a rogue knight, started listening after Adam's appearance in early 2020.
I started a small business in March of last year.
I sell power tools and home improvement items on eBay, and I finally paid myself a meager sum after more than a year of struggling.
Congratulations.
Success!
So of course, when I saw the sad puppy, I had to donate a portion to the best podcast in the universe.
If any producers are interested or just have power tools and fastener questions, please message or toot me on No Agenda Social at Jeff Costas.
So that's jeffcostas at noagendasocial.com.
Now that I've self-promoted, I have to say, you two continuously blow my mind and help me feel more prepared to guide my family through this dangerous nonsense and into the future.
This is truly priceless, and words cannot express how thankful I am that I found the No Agenda Show.
Thank you so much.
Well, that is exactly how it's supposed to work, Jeff.
Thank you.
We gave you value.
You returned it.
It's highly appreciated.
The system works.
No jingles, no karma, not even a de-douching, he says.
The sad puppy works.
Love is lit.
Jeff Costas, Middleburg, Florida.
The Rick is up.
He's in Brooklyn, New York, 333.33.
It's a surprise we have anyone in Brooklyn that listens to the show, but the Rick does.
ITM, he says, please refrain from last name we did.
Yeah, he lives in Brooklyn.
Hello to Mel Carr of Tucson, Arizona.
Hi to Phoebe and the Keeper.
Woo-hoo!
There you go with the Pheebster.
You know, Mark Hall came over, as I told you, with the Mead.
And he brought his cute little dog over, which is called Laddie.
And it's like one of those miniature Scottish Shepherd type things.
Yeah.
And so cute.
And he's hopping around.
And he's six months old.
And we had Phoebe on the porch.
Phoebe made a sound I've never heard her make before.
She was going to kill that dog and eat it alive.
And I was like, hey, we can socialize.
She's gotten good with humans.
Now let's do dogs.
Well, yeah, no.
She's still not eating properly.
She's so upset over that.
Because of course, Tina's like, oh, laddie, such a great dog.
And then our dog's just going crazy.
Anyway.
Some dogs are not.
Not?
Yeah.
No, not sociable with other dogs.
Yeah, I mean, it depends on the breed sometimes.
Well, this is not a, this is known, the Akbosh, not a social breed.
Unless they come up together.
But with humans and other animals, fine.
Viscount Christopher is in Marshfield, Wisconsin.

Just says, SirRedBeard.
Thank you very much.
You want to do Jeremy?
And I'll grab the next one after that.
No, Jeremy Johnson.
He's actually in Port Angeles, Washington.
333.33.
Greetings from Port Angeles!
Thanks for being the voice of reason in the January 6th show trial.
One cited like when North Korea convicted the student of trying to overthrow the government when he stole a poster.
Yeah, right.
Thank you for your courage.

Oh, good one.
Hot Pockets.
You've got Karma.
I forgot about that one.
That's a really good one.
Let me see, who do we have next here?
Thank you, you cracked this up.
This is Audra Matthews, Cupertino, California, 333.13.
You immediately have to wonder, is it someone who works at Apple?
Do real people live in Cupertino besides Apple employees?
Oh no, it's a big bedroom community, yeah.
Bedroom community?
What is a bedroom community?
Yeah, it's a bunch of, there's a lot of people live in Cupertino.
Um, Audra says, request magical shape-shifting juice.
It's real.
Boogity, boogity, boogity, amen.
Dear John Adam, my smoking hot fiance, Don Marotta, is not on the birthday list, but I wanted to wish him happy 42nd birthday with his donation to our favorite, aka the best, podcast in the universe.
Don has been a loyal listener for many, over 10 years, and he hit me in the mouth in early 2020.
We've been listening together ever since.
Now, he hasn't donated in a while, though, so I'm calling him out as a douchebag.
Happy birthday, Don.
Looking forward to many more years and episodes together.
Love from your ex-commie liberal ex-girlfriend.
He jokingly calls me his ex-girlfriend after we got engaged.
Okay, got it.
P.S.
Wow, what a card.
Chicks don't dig that, dude.
Get a clue.
Keep up, yes, keep up the spot-on media deconstruction.
John and Adam, you're doing a great service, and we are grateful to both of you.
All the best.
Audra's... Audra Matthews, and says, John's birthday is on July 8th.
His donation is credited towards his path to knighthood, and we appreciate that.
Oh, I'm going up for the bachelor's safety thing, should you step right this way.
It's real!
You've got karma.
Sir Jeff of the PA Pennsylvania Route 33 in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.
Wants a giant industrial complex.
333.
Hey guys, ITM?
Please put me on the birthday list for July 9th.
No jingles, no karma.
Sir Jeff.
Boom.
You got it.
Sir Ara Dadarian.
Oh man, Sir Ara's been around with us for a long time.
Tribuco Canyon, California, 333.
He says, I have a podcast that I've been producing for 17 years.
Are you trying to top us, man?
And you do.
And have seen a considerable drop in support starting in March.
Summer is typically slow anyway, but combined with gas at over $6 a gallon in some places and people don't have the spare cash for support, donations have fallen off a cliff.
You have taught me so much, and in turn, I've taught my wife and daughters to dig deeper on anything they read or hear.
They usually come to the conclusion that the story is B.S.
or pushing some bogus narrative.
As a result, I have two millennial daughters who can see through the B.S., and for that, I thank you.
Your hard work needs to be recognized and supported.
And we appreciate you, Eriditarian.
Thank you so much.
John Schifrin in Kennewick, Washington, 333.
This is at Schiff, S-H-I-F on No Agenda Social.
Please send me some relationship karma.
That is 69 followed up by R2-D2 karma with a boost of... That's true!
Keep up the quality deconstruction.
It is needed now more than ever!
69! 69, dude!
69!
You've got karma.
Uh...
So we have two here that have no note.
Have you seen any of these in your travels?
Dan Maycomb and Matthew Januszewski?
No, I don't have a note from either one.
Both 333, Dan in Connecticut and Matthew in Evanston, Illinois.
Thank you very much.
Send a note if you have one after the fact, and we'll give you the double karma as usual for these situations.
You've got...
Double up!
Pharma.
Meanwhile, Ray Martin, Sir Lairon in Dotham, Alabama.
He used to be Alaska's executive producer.
Still loving the show, you sad puppies.
Y'all, much appreciated.
No jingles, no karma.
Sir Lairon.
Sir Kyle from lavenderblossoms.org, 272.27, so 27227 Northville, Michigan.
Busy season here at the farm since I lost 90% of my lavender plants due to an extended winter here in Michigan.
Time to replant again.
Damn you, Al Gore!
Where's the global warming you promised?
Wow!
People, go to lavenderblossoms.org and let's see if SirCal can be helped out there.
It's outstanding.
By the way, I wanted to mention, it's a competing product, but we have that eBulls CBD.
You remember that eBulls, they sent us some stuff.
Did you get any of the eBulls product?
Is that the one in the eyedroppers?
I think it is.
And so they have a, it's like a roller.
And I had a, like a really stiff, I had a really stiff neck a week or two ago.
And I have this roller, it's like a deodorant roll-on, except it has CBD and some spearmint stuff in it.
I don't know where I got that.
Oh, you want it!
You want it!
And I've tried so many different things on a stiff neck, and even Surcal's Lavender Blossom CBD, that works great on my calves when I have a cramp at night.
But this stuff was really, because it has that, you know, that mint or whatever that, you know, this makes you feel like it's working.
Yeah, one of the things about CBD, you've got to make sure it doesn't stink.
Exactly.
Exactly.
Yes, send me one of these rollers, I'll check it out.
Sir William of Bainbridge Island, meanwhile, $260.06, and he lives in Bainbridge Island, Washington.
That's where the elites live.
Sir William of Bainbridge Island, I heard the call for help and decided to donate $260.06.
Your show keeps me sane in dark blue western Washington.
Keep up the good work, and I hope this donation helps.
And yes it does.
No jingles, no karma.
Sincerely, Sir William of Bainbridge Island.
Ryan Gallowman is in Steffanville, Texas.
$250.
He's the Associate Executive Producer for today.
Greetings, menfolk!
Your show is great and brings value to my life, so here's some value in return.
That's how we love it.
Keep up the good work.
Please call out Derek as a douchebag and send some general-purpose karma to those who need it.
Thanks, y'all.
Ryan.
You've got karma.
And then we have Margo Edenhood in Orangevale, California, 250, wants the I've Got Ants jingle.
IZM, one year ago I started donating to the best podcast in the universe at All this time I have failed to grand... grant, I think is the word she's looking for.
Any credit to my smoking hot husband, Matt Brunner.
Today, July 7th, is our 14th wedding anniversary.
I'd like to credit this donation as a switcheroo.
Switcheroo.
This donation and the knighthood to Matthew Brunner.
Please de-douche him.
Oh, how cool.
You've been de-douched.
He is my ridder op het witte paard.
What does that mean?
He is my knight in shining armor, which translates in Dutch to my knight on the white horse.
Ridder op het witte paard.
Absolutely the most beautiful human being and kindest and most handsome man in the universe.
Ik hou van jou.
I mean, I love you.
Decide him, Sir Matthew Brunner, until he chooses another name for himself.
Oh, so I didn't know.
I always suspected that Marga A. den Hoot was Dutch, but now we finally have proof.
That's why she lives in Orangevale.
Oh.
Yes, that makes so much sense.
For the House of Orange.
Well, Matt, we'll see you in a little bit.
Greg Clifton, Morgan Field, Kentucky, 24642.
ITM, please accept this donation in honor of America's 246th birthday.
Y'all are the best.
Thanks for what you do.
Please play Don't Eat Me, Bo Jiden.
Oops, hold on a second.
Oh, wait, I forgot to play the Ants song for Matt.
Let me do that first.
I'm so sorry.
My mistake.
I got ants.
I got ants.
You've got karma.
You've got karma.
Okay, so now the requests from Greg Clifton is don't eat me, Bo Jiden, Obama, you might die.
Where's my Obama, you might die?
Oh, man.
Hold on a second.
It's getting out of control again with all these... Obama, you might die.
Yes.
What is the next one?
Biden, get vaccinated.
Oh, we're good.
Again, we're getting to the max of what we can do here.
Then we have the no, of course, lady, which always follows that, and yuck.
Okay, let's do all these then.
You might not get vaccinated.
No.
Oh!
Oh, I came so close to pulling it off.
I thought you did pull it off.
No, I missed the yak karma jingle.
You've got karma.
Thanks for the gymnastics, Craig.
Greg.
Jordan Lentink.
Lentink.
In Bedford, Queensland.
Quebec, in Quebec City, I'm guessing.
Canada, 222.
Oh no, it's in Bedford, Quebec.
Sorry.
222.22.
Okay.
Here's a handful of fiat Canadian cuck bucks.
I could not hear, I could not bear to see that damned puppy.
A quick update.
I proposed to my beautiful wife on show 1359 and she gracefully accepted.
Nice!
We tied the knot in a lightning-fast, 33-minute, illicit celebration on November 1st, and have not had a fight since.
Nice!
Yeah, the night's young.
As you know, couples that know a gender together stay together.
I would like to call out my dad, Michael, and my mom, Tineke.
Tineke.
As reprehensible douchebags.
That's for Michael, and that's for Tineke.
I hit them both in the mouth two years ago and they have been avid listeners and freeloaders ever since.
So another Dutch family, Lentink, very Dutch name, and his mom, Tineke, would be Dutch as well.
Thank you.
Thanks for putting together six hours of sanity every week.
It's much appreciated.
Sometimes we go over.
We love doing it for you.
Britton Sprouse in Montgomery, Louisiana.
Rove Ducks, $222.22.
Thanks.
Now get on with the show.
We got it.
Thank you, Britton.
So I'll take Rachel.
$222.22.
Cleveland, South Carolina.
A short Rove Ducks.
You read my donation last year wrong!
I said I was from Cleveland, Ohio!
No offense against anyone from Ohio, but I'm a proud Appalachian here in the beautiful South Carolina.
This is another birthday donation for me, by me, from me, so happy birthday to me!
36 times around the sun, July 7th, I'd like to call out Travis in his annual second douchebag alert!
And also my husband Eric!
He could use some jobs karma though, and I'd like one goat scream, and she wants the shape-shifting Jews, so of course we can...
Add that for her.
Was anything else in the note here?
I love you guys.
Please keep doing what you do.
Looking forward to making it to Dame Hood one day.
Love from Rachel.
Love from Rachel.
Let's vote for jobs!
You thought.
Karma.
And let's go over to Highland Park, Illinois.
Anonymous writes in.
$211.
She says, keep anonymous.
Grew up in the Highland Park area.
Every bored teen knows how to get to the roof of the downtown buildings.
Unlocked door and unguarded stairs.
Would like your thoughts on Mike Madigan being indicted.
Jingles, life is a scam, butt slam.
That's true and baby karma.
We 2X Jabs, oops.
What?
They've both been double vaccinated.
Yeah, okay, what about it?
Well, as he just says it.
Oh, okay.
I don't think there's a jingle.
No, I don't think either.
Life is a scam.
Also, baby karma is just baby making karma.
We have that.
We can do that.
Let me see how far I get with you kids here.
Hold on a second.
What do we need?
Oh, butt-slam.
That's what we need.
Hello.
Whoa!
You got butt-slam!
You've got... karma.
Hey mister, that's true.
Oh, goodness.
It's close enough.
Yeah, I think so too.
Michael Bernstein, Raleigh, North Carolina, 204.01.
Gents, keep up the great work.
Two things.
One, I recently bought a used prison.
Oh yes, I know who this is.
It was decommissioned in 2004.
It's located just outside Raleigh, North Carolina.
It is zoned camping, which means I can build nearly anything I want.
Free tree houses, yurts, cheap knockoffs of the Seattle Sky New York, a replica of John C. Dvorak's Mystery Podcast Studio, etc.
If any No Agenda listener has dreamed of building something crazy but couldn't because of local building laws, please contact me, Instagram, Mutual Win Tiny Homes.
Second point, I will be in Iceland Monday, July 11th and hosting the first ever Frozen Slaves Meetup.
Fermented shark fins will be served.
John, what wine should we pair with this?
Yeah, I was thinking about that.
I don't know.
I think any generic Chardonnay would work.
Now, that said, if you're going to go to Iceland, you've got to buy wool.
Iceland has these three sheep, more than three obviously, but they have three, their sheep, the Icelandic sheep, which is a weird looking animal, weird looking animal.
They come in three colors and they make sweaters and blankets and everything and they use those three colors.
Sometimes they dye the white ones, but generally they just use those.
Blankets, sweaters, and one of the best wool shops, I think it's still there, is in the airport.
So make sure you load up when you're there.
And he actually sent Tina some pictures.
By the way, it should come in duty free because it's handmade.
He sent Tina some pictures of this new property and the prison is still there.
Jail cells and everything.
There's a watchtower.
I think the watchtower should be the replica of your studio.
Very good, up there in the watchtower, that sounds right.
It looks really cool.
It does.
He just wants a Goat Karma, so we'll give him that.
You've got... Karma.
Christopher Guia, G-U-I-A, Dallas, Texas, 203.99.
Couldn't find any note from him, so he gets a Double Karma, the coveted Double Karma.
You've got Pharma.
David Fugizotto comes in from Gladstone, Missouri, 20233.
And he just says New Jersey, North Korea.
That is code.
That's code, clearly.
And I have no idea.
New Jersey, North Korea.
Maybe they're sister cities.
Charles Wheeler's next in Eldridge, Iowa.
$200.78 and he needs a de-douching.
Yeah, we got that for you.
You've been de-douched.
Thanks for the deconstruction and amygdala shrinkage.
This donation is in honor of my 22nd wedding anniversary to my smoking hot wife, Emily.
May we have 22 more jingles requests.
We much know.
Wait a minute.
I think.
Resist we much.
Resist we much.
And then that followed by no.
That's interesting.
No.
Congratulations.
22 years.
They never had a fight.
But resist we much.
We must and we will much about that be committed.
No.
Charles Wheeler, 278 Eldridge, Iowa.
Please de-douche.
You've been de-douched.
Thank you for the deconstruction and amygdala shrinkage.
This donation is in honor of my 20... Oh, that's the one we just did.
Duh!
I was taking bets on how long you'd go.
If you got to the jingles and I said... Eric Constable in Jacksonville, Florida, 233, needs some sales karma, can't sell water to a woman on fire right now.
Sounds bad.
I don't know what's going, but here it is.
You've got karma.
It happens.
Sales is weird.
I worked at a boiler room once.
You mean a stock where you call people up and say, hey, hey, do you buy stocks and bonds?
Do you like, do you want to be rich?
You want to leave your wife rich?
Hey, you want to buy some stocks and bonds like that?
Is that what you did?
Yeah, but it was for a charity and, uh, Hey, you want to save some kids and like leave your wife saving kids and whatever.
Yeah.
It's the same pitch.
So one day, so one day I worked there for about a week.
It wasn't something I wanted to do.
Successful career, yes.
But I had a one day where I just so kicked ass.
Everybody just bought.
Yeah.
Bang, bang, bang.
I got the little, I guess some sort of a certificate of being the best sales guy.
Next day, nothing.
Literally nothing.
I couldn't sell anything.
It was just the damnedest experience.
What's happening right now in Fredericksburg?
Stores are closing.
We have this double threat.
One is stores and restaurants.
Long-time restaurants are closing because they can't get people to work and live in Fredericksburg because you can't afford to live here anymore and work here.
They're even offering $19 an hour for servers.
You know, waiters and waitresses, still no takers.
In addition to that, like the same thing, we'll have like four days during the week, dead, nothing, no sales, nothing happening.
And then the weekend it's great and then it's gone.
Shit is happening.
Interesting.
Liam, I guess it's Pilot, P-L-E-O-T, in Portland, $200.02.
And he says, de-douche!
You've been de-douched.
Happy 25th anniversary to my smoking hot wife, Allison.
Yak karma, please.
You've got...
Sir Fat Dad of the Beamexicans is in North Little Rock, Arkansas.
In the morning, a donation from Sir Fat Dad of the Beamexicans.
Can I, since I've already been knighted, please make this a switcheroo towards my wife, Shonda's Damehood.
Okay, so does that mean also for the associate executive producer, or just, he says switcheroo?
Well, I would say because he used the word switcheroo.
I would have to put her name there.
Okay, so we'll put Shonda.
Oops.
That didn't go well.
We'll put Shonda of the Bia Mexicans.
How about that?
Since he didn't give us any other options.
Yakarma, please.
Love is lit.
Yes, of course.
Oh, did we already do that?
I'll do another one.
Another Yakarma.
You've got... Karma.
That's disgusting.
Viscount Dirty Dick Bangs in Washington, D.C.
District of Criminals, $200.
John, four words on why the donations are low.
We're in a depression!
Big sales karma, please.
Viscount Dirty Dick Bangs of D.C.
You've got karma.
And let's see, we got only two more here.
John Cooper, Clinton Township, Michigan in the morning.
Gents, thanks for your exceptional show and for shining a spotlight on all the BS.
Keep it up.
My family could use some good karma as we move from Hawaii to Michigan.
Compliments of Uncle Sam.
Thanks, John Cooper, formerly of Honolulu.
That must be some military operation there, I think.
You've got karma.
There's your karma for the move.
And last on the list is Leah Hartlaub in Cincinnati, Ohio.
$200.
Dear John and Adam, we love the greatest podcast in the universe.
We appreciate the newsletter.
You are the mothership of all podcasts.
Thanks so much, Leah Hartloff.
Okay.
I agree.
I agree.
I think a lot of these podcasts are hearing us and then they go on their own podcast and argue about it.
Seriously, we pick the hits somehow, man.
We get the stories way before everybody else has them.
And then we repeat them over and over again throughout the years because everything comes back in cycles.
And then Tucker steals them and he gets all the credit.
And all the money.
But we're very, very, very appreciative of the value that we received today.
Thank you to our executive producers and associate executive producers for episode 1,466.
You can now use that credit wherever they are recognized.
And if anyone hassles you about that, you let us know immediately and we'll vouch for you.
You can start an IMDB with this credit.
That's how valuable it is.
Thank you again.
And we'll be thanking more of our producers in a moment.
If you'd like to learn how to become a producer of the No Agenda show, Just visit that website, it explains a lot in detail.
And thanks again!
Our formula is this.
We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
All right.
Thanks, everybody.
That really made up for the past couple of weeks.
I appreciate it.
Yeah, what do we got here?
But we got a lot of stuff.
I got a bunch of mis... I got some very interesting miscellaneous clips.
Nothing focused?
Isn't there something... We must be missing something important before we do miscellaneous.
Well, there's Ukraine, but there's really nothing going on there.
We kind of went through Ukraine, didn't we?
We didn't have... Oh, Roe v. Wade?
Don't we have something... Nothing on Roe v. Wade?
Well, let's do some politics anyway.
I want to play this thing.
I do have Roe v. Wade, by the way.
Okay.
And that'll lead into politics.
Okay, give it to me.
Okay, first, how not to answer a question.
So there's this story going around, which may even be bogus, but it was just interesting to see Kristi Noem, who, now is she still a favorite for a Republican nominee for something?
I think she has a vice president possibility, but she's not going to be running for president as far as I can tell.
But she needs to learn how to answer this question.
She's hated by a lot of people.
Not well-liked.
So there's a story which is now even being questioned.
I did not dive into it because I really don't care that much, but the story goes like this.
There was a 10-year-old girl raped in South Dakota, her state, and she had to go across state lines to get an abortion because she wasn't allowed to have an abortion.
And I think it was South Dakota.
But the story, it's like the story moves its target, you know, have you heard about this?
Which is a horrific story, of course.
No, but this is the Kennedy story.
So she gets asked this question and she doesn't have the right answers.
The Indianapolis Star is reporting that a 10-year-old girl in Ohio who was six weeks and three days pregnant now has to travel across state lines to Indiana to receive an abortion.
What are the chances, right?
Six weeks and three days, now she has... I mean, this story just smells bad.
Because this is a trigger law that was passed before you became governor, I wanted you to be clear.
Will the state of South Dakota, going forward, force a 10-year-old in that very same situation to have a baby?
You know what I think is incredible, Dana, in this tragic story?
Because I heard about this last night.
What's incredible is that nobody's talking about the I agree with you.
Of course.
That is an important discussion to have.
raped a 10-year-old.
And what are we doing about that?
I agree with you.
What are we doing about those individuals that do this to these children?
Of course, that is an important discussion to have.
You rape children, that's an issue that the Supreme Court has weighed in as well.
Listen, I totally understand that.
And as much as we talk about what we can do for that little girl, I think we also need to be addressing those sick individuals that do this to our children.
I couldn't agree more.
Our bodies are our bodies and women are the ones who who get pregnant and in this case it wasn't a woman it was a girl.
Should she have to have a child?
A child?
Should she have to have that baby?
Every single life, every single life is precious.
This tragedy is horrific.
I can't even imagine.
I've never had anybody in my family or myself gone through anything like this.
I can't even imagine.
But in South Dakota The law today is that abortions are illegal except to save the life of the mother.
And you would be okay with that?
A ten-year-old girl having to have a baby?
No, I'm never okay with that.
In fact, that story will keep me up at night.
It absolutely will.
So will you try to change the law to have an exception in a situation like this?
I'm a grandmother.
I've got a one-year-old little granddaughter.
Okay, so you understand, it's just badgering.
It goes on for another two minutes.
And she has no good answer.
I mean, she's really got to work on that.
And then we have, yes, you can't, you know, these, this is what you're going to be up against if you're going to be running for anything.
You get these kind of a, you know, they find a chink in the arm and they just start pounding it because they see that you're weak with your answer.
You're not strong.
You're not coming back at him and saying, you know, I don't really need to be badgered about this.
You know how I feel.
Uh, there's a, she should have put a stop to it instead of letting the reporter badger her like that.
Uh, I mean, I, the, In fact, I think, I don't even know if she handles it well, is a similar badgering that took place in the White House, which was Ducey badgering Jean, Kareem Abdul Jean-Pierre.
Wait, but wait, let me finish with this, unless it's about the Roe v. Wade, I have one more clip.
No, it's not.
But when you're done, I want to play this just to show you how to get out of this situation if you're a politician.
Oh, well, let's do it now then.
Let's do that now.
Sure.
It's just that you... She's no good either, by the way, this Jean-Pierre.
She's horrible.
Yeah.
Press her.
Press her.
It's called Press Her Q.
Why is there a voicemail of the president talking to his son about his overseas business dealings?
Okay, yeah, so it needs a little bit of setup because it is a switch to Hunter Biden's laptop where there's clearly all kinds of evidence, including this voicemail, which we didn't even pay any attention to.
We had the clip, I'm sure.
And it refutes the claim that the president never spoke with his son about any of his business dealings, which was asked ad nauseum during the debates leading up to the last election.
Why is there a voicemail of the president talking to his son about his overseas business dealings if the president has said he's never spoken to his son about his overseas business?
Well, first I'll say that what the president said stands.
So if that's what the president said, that is what stands.
And secondly... He put a voicemail around a New York Times article concerning Hunter Biden's business dealings and says, I think you're clear.
How is that not him talking to his son about his overseas business dealings?
We're not him.
I am not going to talk about alleged materials from the laptop.
Are you disputing the president's voice on the voicemail?
I am not going to talk about alleged materials on the laptop.
Are you disputing that it is not?
Peter, I refer you to his son's representative.
Okay.
I love his, okay.
Okay, your analysis, since you brought it up.
Very poorly done.
The way it should be handled, it seems to me, they should know about this is going to happen.
Especially from Doocy.
They say, well, we're looking into it.
This is very concerning.
We're looking into it.
Just get off of it immediately.
And that's what she should have done, Noam should have done with this Rogan Waite question.
Exactly.
Get off of it as fast as you can, otherwise you're going to go on.
Doocy could have taken it one more time.
He just knows he's going to get kicked off the thing.
He'll go two rounds and then he'll say, okay, I stopped.
I really love, I think Karine Abdul Jean-Pierre is really best when seen visually because she has this, I think she's very tiny, seems to be a very compact person, but she plants her feet and she has this attitude and this, it's just like, you know, like you're crazy.
And you can see she's modeled after some of Jen Psaki and some other ones.
But she's really, she can really only act and read a script.
She does not really know everything that's going on.
She's slow on her feet.
She doesn't know what she's doing.
She's incompetent.
Yes, I would say.
And it seems like everyone else in the communications department is quitting around her.
So it should only be a moment of time.
But this is, of course, is her time to shine.
The funny thing is, the Biden administration, you've got to get back to this Roe v. Wade, but the Biden administration has people quitting left and right everywhere.
And like you mentioned, even in the communications department, if this was Trump's administration... We wouldn't have heard the end of it.
Everyone's quitting, they can't stand working for him.
I love it when people who have not read our mission statement, which you find at noagenda.net, it's up at the top, mission statement.
Which, of course, is not a mission statement at all, but it does explain exactly what we do.
And we deconstruct media, so when people say, No, we go, whatever the media is saying, and it doesn't matter who it is, they're always full of crap.
Unfortunately, it's the media that is really biased.
That's why you get pretty much the same from us, unless there's an odd moment when Fox News is actually dumb and funny.
Cause they're dumb a lot, but dumb and funny, and that's hard to get, except from like MSNBC, CNN, and these hosts of Jamokes.
So now let's go back to Roe vs Wade.
Elizabeth Warren makes me want to resurrect this item.
So you have these pregnancy crisis centers in many states in America.
Are you familiar with the work of the Pregnancy Crisis Center, what they do?
No, I'm not.
I mean, I've heard of them, but I don't know what they do.
If you saw one, what would you think?
Just if you saw a Pregnancy Crisis Center, what would you think that that is?
I would think it was a counseling place for people to get abortions.
Interesting, because that is exactly what Elizabeth Warren's takeaway from it is, but she's taking this to a much higher level.
Senator Warren also taking aim at pregnancy crisis centers.
Here in Massachusetts, these so-called crisis pregnancy centers outnumber Oh no!
They bait and switch!
Oh no!
This is horrible!
She says women walk into the centers believing they'll get abortions instead they try to talk women out of it.
Oh no!
They bait and switch!
Oh no!
This is horrible!
Let's roll it back and see what's going on!
She says women walk into the centers believing they'll get abortions instead.
Instead, they try to talk women out of it.
She calls it a bait-and-switch.
They are giving it over to people who wish them harm.
And that has to stop.
We need to put a stop to that in Massachusetts right now.
I love how trying to convince someone not to get an abortion is putting them at har- They're harming them!
That's gotta be some doublespeak.
Wow.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's a good catch.
And she's mad about it too.
It's like, dude, but I mean, you're for abortion clinics, but not because, oh, these guys are ahead.
The guys who don't want to abort are ahead?
That's a bait and switch?
I don't know, man.
It's just, is it me or is that nuts?
Well, from her perspective, it's totally not nuts.
She's really turning into a shrew.
I mean, have you watched her?
She's lost weight, actually.
She's really thin and gaunt now.
I haven't really paid attention.
You clap your hands and the wind would be enough to knock her over.
She looks sick.
She looks sickly.
And she sounds worse than ever with this.
She doesn't have any gravitas to her voice anymore.
She screeches.
She's really in bad shape.
I don't know what's wrong with her.
The whole world is collapsing in on her?
I don't think so.
She's a mega douche?
I mean, she just... She's always been that.
Mega douche.
Mega douche!
There's a show title.
Yeah.
I mean, that's interesting.
You just randomly, like you have Tourette's, yell something and then just claim it as show title?
Yeah, exactly the same.
For me, it's more the opening.
I'm thinking not show title.
That's how we open the show.
Mega douche.
Oh, you mean to me?
Well, then you're still right.
Yeah, probably.
Here it comes.
Mega douche.
Mega douche.
We made a great jingle there.
That was live production, ladies and gentlemen.
From the Black Lives... I should say BLM LGBTQIAPK plus Noodle Boy, we have a couple of items to discuss.
The Dutch Parliament, while they hate their farmers and going to take their farms away from them, they have approved legislation to make work from home a legal right.
What are you doing here?
What do you do, sir, at the Ford assembly line?
Well, I put these screws on these chassis.
As they go by, I put the bolt down here and then it comes down and I hit the button and it welds it.
I want to do that from home.
No, that's not gonna happen, but the Netherlands doesn't have any businesses like that anymore.
The only place you can still weld is building a yacht for Jeff Bezos.
But...
It does give me a thought, you know, you have very specifically warned businesses of not hiring woke people because it will destroy your organization and that is now coming true.
We're seeing it everywhere.
From within.
They will literally try and take your company away from you.
Um, but I think this is a, there's a tremendous opportunity if you're young and you want to, first of all, how about if you want to make it, if you want to move ahead in your organization, show up, go to the office.
There's going to be someone there.
Work from there, make it, make it your mission.
If you work from the office, you have a much better chance at succeeding because you can be a sniper, you can, you know, that guy over there, you know, he never comes in.
Okay, well, this is the Dvorak method.
I'm like, just be good and move ahead and show the extra effort.
And you're like, undermine your colleagues while you're there.
Nice.
Exactly.
Get in there.
You're in there.
Oh, I know.
Where's Bill?
Everyone in the meeting, yeah, but where's Bill?
Oh, Bill works from home.
Oh, Bill, okay.
So he doesn't have to come in ever?
Is that the idea?
Pretty much.
There's something else.
Great way to meet people who you might want to date.
Screw these dating sites and not having personal interaction with people.
You can probably cut out 10 dates by going to the office and you're likely to meet someone else.
And guess what?
You're both at the office.
You already have something in common.
Come on, that's fraternization.
You can't have that in the office.
One other story, very upsetting.
Too many Scrabble players who are now quitting the competitive game of Scrabble.
As Mattel has changed the rules of the game.
What?
Yes, they've changed the rules of the game.
Well, not really the rules, but there are now 400 offensive terms banned from the word list that are allowable at Scrabble.
The problem is you can't really get the list of these 400 words.
There's some obvious N word type stuff.
I was just going to ask you to read them.
No, believe me.
I looked everywhere.
I, and all I get is like, well, you know, the N word won't be on there.
And so I would love to have the full list.
Maybe it's included in the game.
Uh, but there's all kinds, you know, it's obviously it's, I mean, what's, what's interesting is that professional players now saying no, no, no, no, we're out.
We're not going to play anymore.
400 back to back to politics.
Okay, so I have there's a guy that's one of the first Gen Z starting to enter politics and there's one guy in Florida.
And I have two clips from Gen Z Zoomers that are candidates, and I want to just play them so we can get a feeling for what we're up against with these people who we know.
We know a lot of them personally, and I don't know if they're going to be good politically or not, but let's play this short clip because this is one of them explaining something you might want to understand.
This is candidate Z.
Growing up, learning that 30 minutes away from me, a kid that looked like me who was wearing a hoodie was murdered for being black, Trayvon Martin, and seeing the outrage after that.
Columbine.
Pulse.
So, hold on a second.
Did he say a kid that looked like me?
Yeah, he's black, I guess.
Or was it because he's wearing a hoodie?
Uh, I don't know.
I don't know.
Because it sounded a bit like that, but okay.
Martin.
Trayvon Martin, yes.
You caught that.
Oh yeah.
Hello!
How could you not?
It's Trayvon Martin.
Everyone calls him Trayvon Martin.
Even the Millennials and the X-Generals call him Trayvon Martin.
They don't call him Trayvon... So we have to deal with that coming up.
Okay.
So here's another one.
And this is some insights into the Gen Z group.
This is a little longer.
This is candidate Z insights.
Levitt argues the Democratic progressives have gone too extreme and hopes her campaign will energize young conservatives, even though Gen Z's early voting trends are decidedly liberal.
So I think some of these more progressive candidates are just a reflection of the system that exists, this exact system I'm trying to fight against.
And that fighting attitude is shared by Frost, the progressive running in Florida.
We come to the negotiating table not already at the compromise, which is usually what, you know, Democrats tend to do.
And I think this is part of the reason why the Republican Party has these long-term plans that a lot of times come into fruition.
This determination to stand by your values shows a clear deviation from millennials.
That's according to Kristen Soltis Anderson, a conservative pollster and strategist.
The frame has shifted from, I'm going to bring about that change by being someone who looks for opportunities to work across the aisle, and more, I'm going to disrupt the institutions and systems that are allowing the other side to continue to prevail.
So she's claiming, Soltis is good by the way, she's a very good analyst.
She says that the difference between millennials and the Z's is that the Z's are just going to put their foot down.
Yeah.
And not go anywhere.
And not go anywhere.
I refuse to go.
Not get a job.
They're not going to get anything.
That's not going to work.
No, it's not.
But they don't know that because they've just come right out of school.
And everybody, by the way, this is another little subtext that's going on and people should understand.
The Roe vs. Wade thing has created a... I wouldn't call it... A hatred of the Supreme Court.
Well, besides, no, I'm talking about a deeper meme, a political meme, which is that the Democrats are all short-term thinkers and the Republicans are long-term thinkers because they had this planned for 50 years.
Don't tell me you're going to play the clip of that, of the converted.
I don't have a clip.
We played the clip of the Democrat on the last show.
He was pissed off and he said exactly that.
Yeah, I've noticed this is becoming a very common thought, and that's what was reflected in these Gen Z things.
Interesting.
And the guy, if you listen to this character that's running in Florida, he talked about it.
He says, you know, the Republicans are smarter than the Democrats because they plan and they execute their plans over long terms.
The Democrats are too dumb to do that, even though he's running as a Democrat.
Have you heard of the latest incredibly smart ploy from Gavin Newsom?
Your governor?
No, and I'm working on a kind of an essay about him.
What is his ploy?
Well, his ploy is he's going to run weird ads.
California Governor Gavin Newsom is drawing sharp responses from Florida Republicans over a new So before you comment, let me play one of these ads.
DeSantis and his allies of leading an attack on personal freedom.
It aired on Fox News in Florida.
A spokesman for DeSantis dismissed the ad saying Newsom "might as well light a pile of cash on fire" and called the ad a desperate attempt to win back refugees who fled the hellhole of California to go to Florida.
So before you comment, let me play one of these ads.
30 seconds.
It's Independence Day, so let's talk about what's going on in America.
Freedom?
It's under attack in your state.
Your Republican leaders?
They're banning books, making it harder to vote, restricting speech in classrooms, even criminalizing women and doctors.
I urge all of you living in Florida to join the fight, or join us in California, where we still believe in freedom.
Freedom of speech, freedom to choose, freedom from hate, and the freedom to love.
Don't let them take your freedom.
Paid for by Newsom for California Governor 2022.
So, this to me seems like a huge mistake.
You're putting words like freedom into an ad.
You're just... People look at that and go, yeah, Republicans rock.
Because people are stupid.
I don't think that works.
You want to have equity and equality and diversity.
It may be like lighting a pile of cash on fire.
I would disagree with some of the premise, but at the same time, you're right about words like freedom.
Republicans and Democrats, we have to remember these four words.
The Democrats are always represented by equality, egalitarianism, and justice.
Those are their two words.
Equality and justice.
We have to be equal.
We have to have justice.
The Republicans, and we've talked about this before, their two words are freedom and liberty.
And so freedom and liberty.
So when you say freedom, you are going to end up thinking Republican because that's kind of the, this is like the studies that were done showing if you show the American flag a lot, the Republican.
Republican.
They see Republican.
And so it's hard, and the Democrats have tried and tried and tried to get people to associate the American flag with Democrats, but it just doesn't work.
The BLM flag, if you see that, you don't think Republican, you think Democrat.
Isn't it also, yes, isn't it also just- The gay flag.
You see the gay flag, what do you think?
Gay.
You think gay Democrat.
Oh.
Queer.
LGBT.
Um, isn't this also just a pathetic way to say he's running for president?
Like, oh, I'm gonna advertise in Florida, everybody, on Fox News.
Look at my penis!
I don't know what he's up to.
I mean, he is running for president, there's no doubt about it.
But my analysis, and it's been in the newsletter, I've talked about this, but my analysis, his real best bet is in, I guess it'd be 2032.
That's when he would get in.
Yeah, he can't run this cycle.
Well, he's stupid enough.
Other people are stupid.
He might.
Well, I can see the argument, which is the argument would go like this.
When Clinton got in after a one-term president, no one thought that was going to happen.
The president's always going to get re-elected, and the guy who pulled out who was going to run for president, was lined up, he was going to be the go-to guy, was Mario Cuomo.
Oh, right.
Mario Cuomo was going to be the President of the United States, but he wasn't going to run against George H. W. Bush because he thinks, you know, you can't beat an incumbent.
So Clinton stepped in, and by sheer just coincidence, the way things worked out, because the economy was starting to collapse.
And Clinton walked in and just grabbed the job and then Cuomo was done.
He never could run again.
So you always have that problem where you get cut out.
You're cut out of the loop.
Right.
But the difference in this round is that the president that's in office now is a Democrat, not a Republican that's going to lose.
It's a Democrat.
Right.
So whether you should step in now or not is a big question.
I'd say no.
I'd say let a Republican win and get reelected and as 2032 you can walk in.
And you'll be 64 years old, as I'm talking about Newsom, you'll be 64 years old, a little smarter.
What he's going to do in between, he can get one more round of governorship.
But I think he should quit the governorship and run for U.S.
Senate and take Dianne Feinstein's seat.
And that would be, keep him in the public eye and he can get even more publicity by being a senator.
She should definitely watch her, mind her P's and Q's.
She's in line to get whacked.
Politically speaking, then.
Well, she should get another booster, maybe that'll take care of it.
But I'm pretty sure that the political ads this season, tis the season, Will be fantastic.
And I say this because of the Newsom ad kind of kicking off, hey, anything goes.
And notice, by the way, once again, your entire thesis behind the removal of the electoral college, the money went to Florida.
It didn't go to a California media company.
Which I'm sure is maddening for everybody.
Now we have Jerome Davison.
Who's running for Congress in Arizona, Republican.
And his ad, well, the visuals are really good.
I mean, this is like movie trailer level.
Listen to this.
Democrats like to say that no one needs an AR-15 for self-defense.
Just that what you're seeing now is you're seeing a KKK white hooded guy walking towards a house and and it's it's film quality you know maybe red or whatever they use and it's a baseball he's got a baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire looking all and and now that I now that I froze this video He actually has the donkey instead of the KKK logo.
So the hat, the pointy hat, the eyes cut out, and the donkey KKK logo on the white sheet.
Democrats like to say that no one needs an AR-15 for self-defense.
That no one could possibly need all 30 rounds.
But when this rifle is the only thing standing between your family And a dozen angry Democrats in Klan hoods.
You just might need that semi-automatic.
in all 30 rounds.
Jerome Davison for Congress.
And he's got the AR-15.
It's a great spot.
I'd like to see that.
Play this one.
This is a... I don't know who it is because it's so far back, but you can look it up in the Clip Looker Upper.
Look for the word rhino hunting.
The word's rhino hunting, and this is an ad for, I think it's a governor or a senator or somebody in one of the states who is condemned for being kind of a douchebag, and he's running for office and he's using the rhino hunting.
Yes, and so everyone knows rhino is, of course, rhinoceros.
It's the name for Republicans who are really like Liz Cheney.
Yeah, Liz Cheney is exactly that.
In related news, former Missouri Governor Eric Reitens has released a new campaign ad calling for moderate Republicans known as RINOs to be hunted down and shot.
RINO stands for Republicans in Name Only.
In the video, Eric Reitens, a Republican candidate for the U.S.
Senate in Missouri, is seen with a shotgun raiding a house alongside a group of heavily armed men in battle gear.
I'm Eric Greitens, Navy SEAL, and today we're going rhino hunting.
The rhino feeds on corruption and is marked by the stripes of cowardice.
Facebook has removed the campaign video and Twitter blocked it from being shared.
In 2018, Eric Greitens resigned as governor of Missouri after a woman he was having an affair with accused him of sexual assault and taking non-consensual nude photographs after he tied her up naked in his basement.
Greitens' ex-wife has also accused him of abusing her and their young son.
Oh, and when was this?
Is this guy current?
Yeah, he's running now.
Oh, goodness.
Hey, it's going to be dynamite.
It's going to be off the hook.
It's just confirming your theory.
Yeah, it's going to be off the hook.
All the Republican candidates are going to be shooting up Democrats.
It's kind of weak now when you see Newsom with his star-spangled banner freedom bit.
I mean, that looks pathetic.
It looks pathetic.
And we should think about what we can do for the Republicans as the Curry-Dvorak Consulting Group.
Or the Democrats.
It could work for anybody.
That's what I said.
What we can do for the Democrats.
Didn't I say Democrats?
No, you said Republicans.
I meant Democrats.
They're the ones that need the help.
They got down the wrong track here.
They won't use any firearms.
They won't do anything.
You know, to hearken back to the old Joni Ernst, who has become a huge disappointment.
Yeah, but when she ran for I think US Senate and she had a bunch of mostly she's target practicing in her ads shooting this and shooting that and stuff and Democrats don't want to shoot anything.
That's the problem.
Even though they they're the what what should what you can be sure that guy in Highland Park was a Democrat I mean, I think they should just go full on.
I mean, this is all trauma-based entertainment.
You know, I talked to Mo about this, and of course, you've also seen the one where the guy puts the noose around his neck.
And that's powerful, man.
So, this is all trauma-based advertising over the backs of black Americans.
I think you're going to see more and more Republicans want to lynch them all.
I mean, we're going to see all kinds of horrible shit.
And I put this Arizona candidate in there.
Sure, it's funny, but no.
Okay, he's a black guy, so I guess it's okay for him to do it.
But I asked Mo about this.
He said, this is not the way to go.
He says, this is just going to make it worse.
And I think he's right.
It's funny.
I think it's not going to make it worse, it's going to make it funnier.
You're not black.
I'm going to show myself old by donating to No Agenda.
Imagine all the people who could do that.
Oh, yeah, that'd be fab.

And we'll hear from him eventually.
I want to thank these people for making this a good list of people to thank.
I enjoyed it.
Me too.
Now, I have a note here about a correction for the Mark and Maria donation for Nathan Boyer.
Are you familiar with this?
What's going on with this?
I don't know.
Why don't you just read it and we'll be done with it.
Nathan, say Mark and Maria, your $240 donation message was read as if it was from us, from Mark and Maria on Sunday's show, though we sent the following message and I thought I'd covered all communication points.
We'll try to get a correction confirmation.
So I guess they do meetups and they have switcheroos.
They have a raffle.
And then whoever wins the raffle, that winning raffle is then the person who is credited with the donation.
Yes.
I remember this.
I remember this.
The guy said he won the raffle and he wrote this note, but I guess they're the ones who won the raffle and he... I don't know.
No, no, no, no.
He won the raffle, but they are the ones that got credited.
So, but here's the good news.
I can go back and change that.
So I'll put Nathan Boyer in and we apologize.
You know, you have to understand that when we get the spreadsheet, it's just before the show.
We don't have time to read through it.
It's an incredible system of PayPal notes, handwritten messages, smoke signals, ham radio transmissions, emails to multiple addresses.
We've never had our shit together, so please just bear with us.
We think it works out pretty good in the end.
And thank you so much to these producers and also who came in under $50 for reasons of anonymity.
We completely understand that, of course, this being only the best podcast in the universe.
But also people are there because they are on one of the sustaining donations.
When it's slow, we're always happy we have that.
So consider that.
If you'd like to learn how to do that, if you'd like some more information about the No Agenda Show and its value for value model, go here.
And we had a couple of karma requests.
Here we go.
Harmon.
Ryan Chase, you know him as Sir Snackingham of the Black Forest.
Happy birthday to his smoking hot wife, Courtney, 40 years old today.
Rachel turns 36 today.
Audra Matthews says happy birthday to her smoking hot fiancé, Don Marotta, 42 tomorrow.
Sir Jeff of PA Route 33 will be celebrating on the 9th.
Greg Musgram turns 34.
And John Kavrik says happy birthday to his son, Sir Tax Evasion, turns 18.
And we say happy birthday from all of the human resources here at the best podcast in the universe!
So, strangely enough, we don't have any title upgrades for today, but we do have quite the list of knights and dames.
I may even have to pull out the long blade.
I gotta do a blade in each hand.
And there's your long blade.
Nice!

There you go.

And I love seeing them at the meetups.
People are always very proud to wear their night rings at the meetups.
Speaking of which...
We do have a couple for the next few days before we hit Sunday's show, so we'll mention those after a report from Cincinnati first.
In the morning, John and Adam.
This is Adam, Allison, Jared, and Elliot Shested, OG listeners from Knoxville, and we just want to say... Let's go, Brandon!
George K at the Cincinnati meetup.
Let's go, Brandon!
Steve at the meetup.
Hello.
There you go.
This is Third, and this, this, this is no agenda.
This is Maddie with a Klaus Schwab in ze morning.
John and Adam in the morning.
This is Greg from Price Hill in Cincinnati.
We love your show.
Keep it up.
All right, guys.
Thank you.
Well produced.
Nice.
And now we have I Must Be High.
This meet-up is a report from their June meet-up, and it has a nice, interesting promo they've attached to it.
The first I Must Be High Toronto meet-up was a great success, with 15 attendees and an after-party that went till midnight, with two nights and a surprise visit all the way from Georgia.
Fernando Toledo, which is a terrific name.
Hey, this is Adam, in the morning.
This is Paul in the morning.
Started listening to No Agenda probably back in 2012.
Hi, my name is Sir Dwight the Knight.
This is my first time at such a large meetup.
It was the best meetup I've been to and I've hosted five or six and you almost did all my numbers, I think, out the gate on your first one.
Congratulations!
I first tried No Agenda in 2010, I think.
I think 10 years ago it was too much for me, but the pandemic made it that I could listen to it.
And now I listen every week.
Well, I just wanted to say, I must be high.
This is no agenda.
Hit your fellow human in the mouth.
Invite a friend.
The best thing to do is coming out.
We're setting up a collection.
Passing to the guys.
Love John and Adam.
That's from all of the guys.
No sad puppy needed in a newsletter.
Like John C. would say, you could do better.
No agenda.
It keeps you ahead of the news.
Media deconstruction with worldwide views.
Thank you to the producers.
Really good schmoozes.
Always fun meetups.
Never met any losers.
We'll see you on the 15th of July.
I must be high.
No agenda.
It keeps you ahead of the news media.
Deconstruction on point with worldwide views.
Thank you to the producers.
Really good schmoozes.
Always good.
Meetups.
Never met any losers.
Now that's what I'm talking about.
That's... Do we have producers or what?
Go ahead.
Any podcast.
Show me producers who do that.
No.
So you can meet some of these fine folks, and they are indeed fine.
And in these times, this is when you want your community, this is when you... and whatever it is, somehow it works, no-agenda people get together, they are wildly different, they are...
Definitely not always the same political stance, even just moral stance, how they look, how old they are, who they love.
None of this stuff matters.
It's one thing, Gitmo Nation, and we know that the elites are out to get us.
So you can go and you can talk about that on Saturday, July 9th, off 33 Bergen, Byron Brockport meetup.
That's at one o'clock in Brockport, New York at the RG Brewery, Five Suns Winery.
Also on Saturday, summertime in Durham, that would be Uxbridge, Ontario, Candanavia, the Corner House Pub and Grill on Saturday.
Berliner in the Morgenschleife, 7 o'clock in Berlin, Germany, the Kassel Berlin Mitte.
If you're in Berlin, you should go to that.
Holy crap, that would be a lot of fun to witness that one.
Then on Sunday, show day, Arlington, Virginia, meetup at noon, Roundy's reverse birthday meetup.
Roger Roundy, who doesn't know him, in honor of all attending, receiving a pre-owned and particular artifact from Roger Roundy's apartment.
It's John.
You may want to go.
You're a fan.
You want to score some of that Dudley gig from that Roundy goodness.
Could be cat hairballs for all you know.
Dudley Sport & Ale, Shirlington, Virginia.
Also on Sunday, Western Suburbs meet up, 4 o'clock.
Chaos, Brocade & Kitchen in Plainfield, Illinois.
And then I might as well tell you about Monday, the 11th, Iceland.
The Frozen Slaves meet up, 6 o'clock.
Reykjavik!
And that is, as we heard, Michael Bernstein, the Mutual Win Tiny Homes meet-up that he's organizing.
And then on Thursday, the suppertime meet-up, 6 o'clock, Pacific Rim Bistro in Atlanta, Georgia.
The Duke of the South is organizing.
That would be our very own Patrick Coble.
Go check out these meetups if you're nearby.
If you want to see where there will be meetups near you, we have a great website, noagendameetups.com.
You can search it, you can browse it.
If you can't find something near you, then I suggest you start one your own, guaranteed a pate!
Sometimes you wanna go hang out with all the nights and days.
You wanna be where you won't be, triggered or held lame.
It's like a party.
Like a party.
What are you doing?
You were knocking stuff around while I was doing that.
I'm rummaging.
You are rummaging.
I don't like your rummaging.
Do you have any ISOs you want to share with us?
I do.
I have a bunch.
Oh, then let me do mine because I'm very short today.
Gotta go get some mac and cheese.
Which I thought was just good enough.
Okay, what else?
Well, the only other thing I have is, of course, a Biden.
Who do they think you are, for God's sake?
That's too long.
Too long.
You've got the, I know, you're packing, you're packing.
I've decided that this Biden, uh, rule of yours was just so you could sneak in a bunch of Biden things while I'm standing there flat footed.
Can I just remind you that we have not used a single one of my Biden end of show ISOs?
Yeah, ironically.
Okay.
Okay, here we go.
Let's start, let's just go down the list.
We go with, uh, great.
Okay.
It was good experience.
Didn't even say great.
Okay.
What is that?
It's a great experience.
It's a great experience.
That's horrible.
Loser.
Bad one.
Okay.
Let's see.
I got one.
I got one.
Just sound effect again.
Okay.
Potential.
Has potential.
Has potential.
Uh, here's one other one.
Moist.
Oh no, this will trigger too many, too many zoomers and maybe even some Xers.
I don't know.
Here we go.
Very moist.
No, no, no, no.
That's not cutting it.
That's not cutting it.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Thanks so much, Elsa.
Thanks so much, Elsa.
No, no, no, no.
No, I'm just kidding.
No, it's not.
I like the fact that it said Elsa.
That makes it even better.
No, it's not.
Okay, try this.
This is the last one.
Wrecked.
Both have been left wrecked.
No.
I think your mmm is the way to go.
And honestly, I'm thinking there's a double in here.
I mean, just please stay open to the concept.
Gotta go get some mac and cheese!
I like it, except for the, I can't barely understand.
Gotta get some pocket cheese?
Mac and cheese!
Mac and cheese!
Play it again.
I'll warm up to you.
Play it one more time.
Okay.
I'm going to try the combo again.
So let's see if we can make this work for you.
Oh, hold on.
I have to crank up the volume on this.
I'm sorry.
This is the kind of effort we put into our production, people.
Gotta go get some mac and cheese!
Okay, I can live with it.
Now, you have a little scrubby blitzy at the end of yours, which I'm not happy with.
Let's see what you got.
I usually check for this at the end.
It's a pop, it's a click.
It's unnoticeable.
But can I fix that?
Yeah, sure.
Well, no, but how, but I, I mean, no, I'm, I know I can fix it if I had time to go in and edit the whole thing.
I don't, clearly.
But I think I can do this.
If I put an out cue there.
This is one of those things.
Okay.
Do I have an out cue?
Can I do that?
Cue out.
All right.
And I say out.
And I set it.
Let's see if it works now.
Okay.
Save.
Oh, this is gonna be so great if it works.
Oh, yes!
Okay, good enough.
Close enough.
I know I'm the only one excited about this, but I thought it was great, personally.
We have a bunch of miscellaneous leftovers here.
There's one I don't mind playing, which is this unknown U.S.
to me, an unknown to the United States crime gang report.
It was a new gang I never heard of that seems to be bigger than the Cosa Nostra.
You heard about this?
If it's not MS-13, no.
It's not MS-13.
Rocco Morabito, a fugitive drug lord with powerful ties to the Ndrangheta criminal gang, landed in Italy today after being extradited from Brazil to serve a 30-year prison sentence.
Morabito was arrested in Brazil in May last year after more than two decades on the run.
The Interior Ministry said Morabito was a top broker of international drug trafficking.
He was included on the list of the ministry's most dangerous fugitives.
In recent years, Brazil has become a key player in the transatlantic drug trade, with its gangs connecting with Italian, Dutch and Balkan players to move record lows of cocaine to Europe, lured by high prices and growing demand.
The Andrangheta is based in the southern region of Calabria, the toe of Italy's boot, and has surpassed Cosa Nostra to become the most powerful mafia group in the country, and one of the largest crime gangs in the world.
Okay.
Fire this woman, whoever she works for.
What was that, New Tang Dynasty again?
Of course!
Oh God, it's no longer quality.
What?
What do you mean no longer?
It's never been quality.
I'm sorry.
What am I even saying?
It's horrible quality.
They dig up these stories.
That's the only reason I play these clips.
I'd prefer you just read it to me.
Just tell me there's a new gang.
I still don't know the name.
What is it called?
What is the name?
Durango, Karenga.
You don't even know the name.
The report is useless!
Yeah, I'm just saying.
Alright, here's a report that I have.
It's just something I track.
The FDA has suspended its ban on Juul cigarettes.
Just last month, the agency ordered the vaping company to pull its electronic cigarettes off the market due to insufficient information about the potential risks.
But a federal appeals court temporarily blocked the ban.
The FDA says there are scientific issues unique to Juul that warrant further review.
I think that IQOS, which is now, I think, 28% of the non-cigarette market in Asia and other countries, it's a tobacco product, non-combustible, so-called smokeless.
Because they have to get the tobacco back in.
And so I don't know, maybe they're giving Juul a little room because it's about technology that they have to investigate.
I don't know what the deal is, but it seems to me that they keep trying to get these guys off the market.
The next thing you know, the story turns around and you got the story you just played.
Exactly.
So something's up.
Yes.
Well, we have our legal vape consultant.
I'm sure she will weigh in.
I think she's moved to Bernie now, so she's pretty close.
And the last story is just the ever-entertaining shitcoin meltdown, which is par for the course.
You know, it's like anyone who's into Bitcoin knew this would happen eventually.
And because all of these altcoins and tokens, they're all connected and they all somehow eventually they've borrowed someone's Bitcoin to fund the operation.
And Mark Cuban is in the middle of it now.
More pain in the world of crypto.
Voyager Digital files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection just days after the broker suspended withdrawals on the platform.
CEO Stephen Ehrlich tweeted, we strongly believe in the future of the industry, but the prolonged volatility in the crypto markets and the default of Three Arrows Capital require us to take this decisive action.
So this Three Arrows Capital, they owe apparently $500 million to Voyager, which is...
What, uh, Mark Cuban was promoting and saying, Hey, this is the way it's, you know, crypto is complicated.
So you want to go with, put a hundred dollars in here.
We'll take good care of it for you.
And all Mavericks fans, you'll love us.
And that's not working out too.
I don't think, I wonder how much Cuban has in it.
Probably not much, but more than nothing.
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
He's more than nothing, but you know that he's doing the keynote again this year at podcast movement in Dallas.
What podcast does he do?
No, last year he had, um, Fireside Chat or whatever.
He had a, uh, a Clubhouse clone and it was going to be the future of podcasting.
And I don't think they even lifted off the ground.
It was Clubhouse.
I forgot about that.
Yeah, so it was a podcast version of Clubhouse, which, of course, too much laughter for myself.
A lot of the podcast pundits... Hey, I was laughing, too.
Of course, you're allowed to.
You helped develop this medium with me, together.
Mono a mono.
You know, it's like, oh, this is going to be the future.
And of course, you know, it's pay to play, these things.
So, well, he gets the keynote.
Now, this year, who's doing the keynote?
Mark Cuban, again.
What is he going to promote now?
What fantastic product is he going to bring to the masses?
I don't know, but I'll be there, so I will let you know.
You're gonna go?
Yeah, we're gonna go.
Let me ask you a question before you play this out.
Are you invited to give a speech?
I have been invited to give... I am giving a talk with Dave Jones about Podcasting 2.0.
Okay, that's good.
We are purposely doing it as part of, you know, just one of those tracks that you can follow.
Oh, a track!
Because we intend to have the room overflowing.
Yeah, you could, you could.
And we don't have to pay for it, so that's... Well, that's a plus, but you should be paid.
Oh, good luck with that.
Oh, please.
This is all just for love and for the next generation.
There's no money in this.
You should know better than that.
That's why you're not involved.
It's definitely truer than that.
All right, everybody, we'll be back on Sunday.
Deconstruct more of your world, whatever happens, wherever it is.
We always do our best.
I think we succeed.
Thanks again to everybody for producing today's show.
Coming up next on NoAgendaStream.com, we have our big dumb mouth.
This is the Smithfields Death Star and the Gimp Man of Essex.
Well, this is an episode you've got to listen to.
End of show mixes, Dee's Laughs, we've got Sir Michael Anthony and Sir 737 with vocals by Mrs. Sir 737.
Coming to you from the heart of the Texas Hill Country, FEMA Region No.
6 in the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.
And from Northern Silicon Valley, where I remain, I'm John C. Dvorak.
We return Sunday, right here, same time, same place.
We'll see you then.
And until then, remember us at Dvorak.org slash NA.
Adios, mofos!
and such.
How much weed does the city really even need?
All the legal money pitching right back to government greed.
Closing down businesses, mom and pop, store by store.
Adding fuel to the tension, now we got a propped up war.
Now I'm taking one, now I'm taking two, maybe three.
All the Fauci out, she's whatever the hell they telling me.
FDA approved, shot four and five.
Feeling like an IQ test at this point, I'm glad to be alive.
Rule followers cheering on this kind of mess.
From the start we were all scared, and it was anybody's guess.
Two years and counting, haven't got COVID yet.
Only done one test, too blessed to be stressed.
Skeptical when I hear young people dying of sad.
Sudden adult death syndrome sounds lazy and justified.
Losing melanin in my skin during the winter time.
I gained it back in the summer, so really I never mind.
Feeling like I have nothing to do with your race.
It's just a look as the days pass, written more all over my face.
It's funny how I get so many interesting looks.
I think it looks funny, not surprising sometimes I leave them shook.
Enough with the screams, read a book.
Enough with the screens, uh, read a book.
Vitamin D3, make sure that shit is in me.
7,000 I use a day, I'm not a Doc G. Don't do your own research, they'd rather be smirched.
The Wookiees are a new religion just without the church.
Church.
Once upon a time in New York City, there was a mayor.
He was the best mayor on the globe.
And his name was Eric Adams.
Mayor Adams made mommies and daddies take a special new potion in their blood to make money.
He said, no jab, no job.
Except for celebrity.
Then the mayor decided to make all the children just like mommy and daddy.
He said no jazz, no gym, and no math, no science, and no more drag queen story time.
A lot of people complained, but Mayor Adams ignored all the outside noise.
So all the students got inoculated.
Thank you, uh, Dr. Pepper.
I gotta get this straight.
Now the government is mommy and daddy.
And Eric Adams, the bestest mayor in the entire universe, lives happily ever after.
The end of New York City.
John, this Green Day is for you.
Fudge.
Thank you, Dr. Pepper.
I gotta get this straight.
Another press event, I hope you don't fall down.
Jill grabs you by the wrist and pulls you off the ground.
Bye.
You're looking dazed and awfully confused.
Walk in the wrong direction, who let him loose?
Joe's so unpredictable, he cannot ride a bike.
I hope the secret service are all right.
Come on, man.
I got hairy legs.
There's a deal.
The president has a big stick.
So take his funny gaffs and hide them from the slaves.
Like Weekend at Bernie's, it's all just so fake.
He's slurring words again, just can't make any sense.
His handlers are losing it, it's getting really tense.
Guess what?
He's had surgery on his brain.
I hope that's not why he acts in a You know, you know me.
From the time I've gotten said, 180 years ago.
Guess what?
You know that you ain't black.
Why should I?
Joe's so unpredictable, he'll sniff your daughter's hair.
I hope, cause he's an old man, you won't care.
I, uh, I love those dreads you're wearing.
Joe's so unpredictable, he needs a diaper bag.
I sure hope that's not why his dress pants sag.
