Joe's fine.
He's great.
Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak.
It's Sunday, July 17, 2022.
This is your award-winning Game of On Asian Media Assassination, Episode 1469.
This is No Agenda.
Commemorating climate victims and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA Region No. 6.
6.
In the morning, everybody.
I'm Adam Curry.
And from Northern Silicon Valley where I'm assiduously watching the July tournament where Terranofuji almost lost today, I'm John C. Dvorak.
It's Crackpot and Buzzkill!
Yes, and that was your sumo wrestling report, courtesy of John C. Dvorak.
People don't know that.
They don't know that.
They don't know that you're a sumo wrestling aficionado.
I love sumo.
It's nothing like watching a couple of fat guys who are intentionally fat.
They actually take the weight off after they quit the game.
But they have to be intentionally fat because of the nature of the game.
Because you have to have a lot of weight.
I mean, you can try the fast move, the little thinner guys.
Why do you need to be so fat?
Just because of the pure bulk?
You can just slam into people and just use your mass?
Yeah, well, two reasons.
One, you don't want to be someone who can be easily pushed around because this is just a little round ring.
Yeah, that's true.
And you get pushed out easily if you go ahead with a big fat guy.
Yeah.
But it's interesting.
NHK has done a very good job in the last few years of Going into a lot of the details of sumo, which makes it actually even more interesting how these guys come up and they have to literally just make themselves as fat as they can.
Kind of like an actor might do in a movie.
And they only last in the game maybe five to ten years, maybe at the most.
There's some guys that stick around for some length of time.
They're more naturally big.
And it's just fascinating to watch.
There's lots of skill to it.
But I've always thought Americans would love this because it's like... Who doesn't love fat guys?
Who doesn't love fat guys?
You know, if they could combine sumo wrestling with hot dog eating, I think we'd have a winning formula for America.
I think American football guards and tackles and the American Football Professional League could become sumos if they You know, if they wanted to.
I would like to see it.
I'd like to see Sumo go against the best guard in the NFL and see what happens.
As this is an exhibition.
Sumo football!
It's getting better!
I mean, we're creating an entire... This is our exit strategy!
Finally, sumo football!
That's it, everybody.
Sumo football for Adam and John.
Beautiful.
I'm writing it down.
For my book of ideas.
You know, for when I retire.
Sumo football.
You could sell that book!
There's your exit strategy.
So heads are bowed all across the EU.
A very solemn day yesterday.
Led in this day of mourning is our very own Frans Timmermans, my friend who never returns my calls anymore.
He used to be a Bilderberger with the Dutch Queen and then he went deep into politics and now he is the European Union Green Deal czar.
And I think we need to listen to him because he has something very important to say.
We all commemorate right now the loss of life due to erratic weather patterns, horrible weather patterns in Europe.
It's a year ago that more than 220 people lost their lives because of the floods in Germany and in Belgium.
Also here, people have lost their lives in the climate crisis, the tornado.
I think five people were killed also in Czechia.
There are deaths almost on a daily basis worldwide.
And it is clear these erratic weather patterns are a consequence of the climate crisis.
It's clear!
And I think it's time we... By the way, I just gotta stop our buddy France there.
That thing was caused by very bad policy for over a hundred years, that flood in Germany.
It was not because of climate change.
And it's admitted they had to turn back and say, well, yeah, I guess we kind of screw up the system.
Yeah, they recreated an old flood plain that they had pushed back by putting trees here and there and doing all these things, which you have to do.
You have to manage your environment and then you just all of a sudden pull everything out of floods and you blame climate change.
Exactly.
In fact, he had a little bit, oh no, it's too long, but we had a whole series of clips, even on NPR, it was always the infrastructure was not good, but that doesn't matter because Franz is still, he's a mensch, he's going to commemorate these people no matter what you say.
How much of a mensch if he never calls you back?
Climate crisis.
And I think it's time we paid a bit more attention to those victims.
Yes.
And I think it would be a good idea to have at least one day in the year in Europe where we commemorate the victims of these horrible weather patterns caused by the climate crisis.
Horrible weather patterns caused by the climate crisis.
We're now two steps removed.
You know, a year ago I mentioned more than 220 people died.
Yes.
And sometimes it becomes clearer if you know one of these persons.
And I want to mention a 15-year-old girl called Rosa.
Okay, so...
I think there's something very subliminal he's about to do here.
So what he's saying is, you know, sometimes it really doesn't hit home until it really hits you personally.
By the way, nothing of course about... Yeah, I feel bad for the 200 people that died, of course.
I'm not a total a-hole.
But for purposes of entertainment, you know, it's better if you make it personal.
And then he says, This is a very typical Dutch-Yiddish way of pronouncing a very Dutch-Jewish girl's name, Rosa.
And I think he's doing this on purpose to bring it closer to some kind of holocaust proportions.
How would you otherwise pronounce it?
Rosa!
It's the Jewish pronunciation.
Rosa.
It's, it's subtle.
Subtle.
Yeah, but it's for me, it's very obvious that he's trying to, and also the, everything, it just, it feels creepy.
And sometimes it becomes clearer if you know one of these persons, and I want to mention a 15 year old girl called Rosa.
Rosa.
Who is Uh, who was the daughter of one of my colleagues in the European Commission who was on a climate camp in the Belgian Ardennes.
In a climate camp?
And she was swept away by high waters.
By climate?
And she died.
What?
We as a family just celebrated the 16th birthday of our daughter.
And Rosa will never be able to celebrate her 16th birthday, and it breaks my heart to have to say this, but I believe that compels us to pay attention to all these people who have lost their lives because of this erratic weather, which is a consequence of climate change.
So I hope we can agree, I will propose it to the ministers today, to have a memorial day for the victims of the climate crisis.
By the way, he says 16-year-old girl, and then later he says she never got to celebrate her 16th birthday.
And she is.
I mean, she was.
I mean, that has incubator kids written all over it.
Transparent.
Well, the climate camp is one thing, but whatever happened to the idea that climate's not weather?
Well, where have you been for the past five years?
Oh, that went out the window.
When it was snowing and it was cold and we had, you know, we had a little bit of that snap.
Uh, that's when everyone, of course, everyone who doesn't believe it would jump up and say, see, that's a climate change!
So they had to parry that, and the only thing they could do was, and this is powerful, how powerful their mechanisms are.
But didn't they once say that there was never going to be another, any snow at all, because it was never going to happen, and it's snowing worse than ever?
No, kids would never... What happened to that?
Kids would not see snow after the year 2000 except in snow globes.
Yeah, that was the way I was put.
So Britain just declared a national emergency.
Record-breaking heat!
I've got a heat clip.
He's got a heat clip.
Okay, what do you have?
Oh, I see it, I see it, I see it.
The title alone makes me jitty.
The National Weather Service in the United Kingdom has issued its first ever extreme heat warning.
As Villa Marks reports, temperatures are expected to top 100 degrees in many parts of the country in the coming days.
The British Meteorological Office's highest ever warning covers major cities including London, Manchester and York on Monday and Tuesday next week and indicates there's a risk to life and that daily routines will need to change.
Railway lines will likely face speed restrictions, medical appointments in some hospitals will be cancelled and certain schools will close early.
Automobile organisations have warned drivers to stay off roads that may melt while cars face overheating.
Top government officials have met Friday to discuss the response.
Wow, that guy sounds really... We need a response!
Wait, roads are gonna melt!
Of course!
It gets to be 1-15, 1-20 in Arizona routinely, day after day, month after month during the summer.
Cars are stuck in the highways, their tires are melted into the road, John.
Yeah, he said it's going to maybe go over 100 degrees, okay?
Not 100 degrees centigrade, that would be bad.
100 degrees Fahrenheit.
That would be roasty.
That would melt the road.
They're gonna go, oh, by the way, Mimi and I went to England years ago during their last heat wave.
Wait a minute, they should have said, your blood will clot.
See, this is what they should do.
Oh, they missed an opportunity.
Back to the story.
And it was so bad then, and it was over 100, it was in Paris and London, that the entire Hyde Park was, the park was, the grass was all dead.
I don't think it's even gotten that bad with this heat wave, I don't think it's that bad.
It was dead, it was all brown, it was like, it looked like California, very welcoming.
Dead, dead and soulless, dead and soulless, yes, exactly like California.
This clip is based on the melting roads.
You gotta get your cars off the road because they're gonna sink into the melting asphalt.
This has never happened.
Where is the roads melting?
They don't melt in Palm Springs.
They don't melt in Arizona.
Not melting in the hill country.
What are they talking about?
Maybe, uh, maybe they have dumb tar.
I don't know.
It doesn't make any sense.
It's just pure tar, Roach.
It'd be melting all the time.
I have, I have, oh wait, do you have a second clip here?
I do have, yeah, I got a BS2.
This is just a kicker.
The extreme heat originated in Northern Africa and has been fueled by growing wildfires in France, Spain, and Portugal.
Well, where's the climate change?
Well, this was the end of that report.
This is what's causing the heat wave in England.
Yeah, I have... When does this ever happen?
You have fires in Portugal and France, and it's causing a heat wave in England?
Are you kidding me?
They're blaming the heat wave and listen to this, play that six seconds again.
That's pretty funny.
The extreme heat originated in northern Africa and has been fueled by growing wildfires in France, Spain and Portugal.
Okay, now wait, let me play this back.
The extreme heat originated in northern Africa.
Okay, so northern Africa, maybe Morocco, it just went, oh man, we're warm, warm.
And then we, and they went over the ocean.
Over the, yeah, the Mediterranean.
The Mediterranean, sorry.
And then up through Portugal and Spain and then... Kept going.
Then it hopped, you know, it hopped the channel.
I mean, where did it, where did it go?
No, because this is the same everywhere.
Let me just give you some historical perspective.
What kind of bullshit are they trying to pull?
Climate change.
The roads are going to melt and the African climate is affecting England?
Yes.
This is climate change blather and they've learned very...
John, this is not journalism, it's not news.
Was it the BBC?
No, it was NPR.
Yeah, but that's not news.
I think it was via the BBC.
And you know what?
I think that a lot of editors or writers of news stories, they don't even check that.
They just go, well, it's climate change.
And they just put it in there.
At this point, it's a fact.
You know, it's like, they were very fine people.
The roads are melting.
The mouse is a dumb idea, nobody wants it.
I mean, you know... I never said that, by the way.
Liar!
That's why I'm saying it.
You will go to your grave with that, and I will stand on your grave and say, it's not true!
It's not true!
Oh, by the way, by the time that all happens, the mouse will be dead anyway.
And I'll say, he was right!
Right all along.
So I have a little bit of historical perspective.
In 1972, we moved to the Netherlands.
And I remember the summer, 72, 3, 4, probably through 6, 76, 70, maybe longer.
And they were hot.
And it was hot outside.
And it was really beautiful.
I remember it.
It was nice.
The spring was nice.
And I was like, you know, Holland's not too bad.
In the 90s, it got shit.
It was like a car wash, perpetual car wash.
And even the summers, it was just, you know, wet and gray and nasty.
And they had predicted, of course, in the 70s, oh, global cooling's coming.
And, you know, to some degree, it cooled down a bit.
And that, you know, so we went through the solar maximum, the solar minimum.
We were going up and down this 11-year cycle.
22 real cycle, 22.
Half cycle, 11, yeah.
Right.
And I learned about that because when I was 15, I was jacking up my CB radio using a sideband and cutting a diode so you could get into the 28 megahertz frequency.
And I just had a half wave antenna on the roof and I could talk to Ohio.
And that was because of the sun activity.
So I learned a lot about this, but I could also feel the difference later when I went back to visit.
And it really started ...becoming nice again when we went back to Amsterdam, so turn of the century, turn of the millennium, and it started getting warmer.
Now, back in the day when I was in school in 72 and we were sweating our balls off, we had something called Tropenrooster.
And the Tropenrooster was very simple.
It's like when it's really hot during the summer, we'll give you a tropical schedule, that's what it means, Tropenrooster, and you come in a little earlier, you come in an hour earlier, and then after lunch everyone goes home.
And that was normal.
These temperatures, I don't know, I'm just saying record-breaking, I mean, I don't know.
Seems like we had 100 degree days.
And I remember because I was still an American in thought, and I wasn't thinking centigrade or Celsius, and I remember those 100 degree days.
Yeah.
So it was just bull.
It's bull crap.
And I don't remember the roads melting.
But they don't like old farts like you bringing it up.
Shut up.
Shut up.
Talk to a kid.
Let's bring a kid an 11-year-old they know.
Yeah, I have an end of show, uh, end of show mix of, uh, of the kids screaming about climate change.
Let me see.
I actually, I have a couple other things.
Oh yeah.
Well, no, the kids, no, no, the kids, they know what to do.
They're, they're being taught.
They're being taught well.
Cause you know, of course we have to fight this evil.
That's melting the roads.
And you know, if the roads don't get you, we'll get you.
Bay Area neighbors say some climate activists have crossed the line as they try to send a message about gas consumption.
They are letting the air out of SUV tires.
We invest a lot of time.
Vacaville mom, Kwanda Ellis Walker, has two boys with autism.
She and her husband also coach youth sports, focusing on kids with disabilities.
She also works as a registered nurse.
So between her job, her kids, the kids on her team, and taking care of a disabled aunt, she puts a lot of mileage on her SUV.
On Tuesday morning, as she was driving to an appointment, her tire pressure sensor came on.
Sensor on my tire was on six.
She parked the car and found the problem.
My tire was totally flat.
I noticed the Paper on my windshield.
The flyer says a climate activist has deflated the tire because SUVs are bad for the environment.
Your gas guzzler kills.
So and I was just angry about that because my gas guzzler does not kill.
Kwanda says her SUV is a lifeline in her community.
It helped her transport special needs Children to many sporting events.
Whether it's a person or a group, it appears they're removing the tire valve cap and letting the air out in the middle of the night.
Oh, that's how you do it.
A group of anonymous climate activists started the vehicle tampering in Europe, and now it's spreading to the U.S.
The anonymous group called the Tire Extinguishers claim responsibility for the vehicle tampering.
They also target electric SUVs because they say all SUVs are dangerous.
Now, nice!
Go electric!
Yeah.
That's funny.
Well, you know, and by the way, the real tip is you take off the screw top and then you take one of these little tools.
Yeah, you screw it off.
And you actually take the valve out.
Yeah.
Now you're talking, Johnny.
You can't put any air back in.
Did they tell you that in the meeting last night?
Yes, that's a good clip.
I'm glad you're fine.
I didn't even know that was going on.
I'm sorry, it's a Bay Area report, but I have a Germany report on climate so we can keep up with what they're doing.
They're leading the way.
They're all in.
Green New Deal, rock and roll, we're the winners!
Chancellor Olaf Scholz says Germany's decision to reactivate coal and oil-fired power plants to relieve energy shortages because of the war in Ukraine is only temporary.
He says his government remains committed to combating the climate crisis.
And he's insisting Germany remains committed to ending its greenhouse gas emissions by 2045.
This is so good.
I do have one last clip, Dan.
Wait, wait, wait.
Can I just say one thing about Germany?
Yeah.
So Deutsche Bank is now modeling German households, you know, they do that for, you know, to understand the consumer, you know, maybe price their inflation, whatever they want to do.
They're modeling German households chopping wood to keep warm this winter.
Well, if we, if we let them chop wood, everyone's going to be, I think, kind of okay.
Well, it's good exercise.
Yeah, nothing wrong with it.
Just slit them logs.
Yeah.
All right.
What's your next plan?
I want to make a warning, a pre-warning for the rest of the show.
I did get a bunch of Amy Goodman clips, so they're going to be on today's show.
They're going to be highlighted.
Okay, well, let's do it properly.
I only do it once every few months.
Amy Goodman clip inbound.
All right, Amy Goodman clip inbounds.
Good, we know it.
So let's go.
Use coal in the EU.
This clip kills me.
In Brussels, the European Union has asked member states to curb their use of natural gas amidst fears that Russia might further reduce supplies.
The EU says nations that increase their reliance on coal will be exempted from carbon emissions reduction goals.
What?
What a scam!
What a scam!
Hold on a second.
Oh no.
So Germany says, hey, we got to fire up some coal.
OK, you're exempt then.
Yeah, that's what it says.
It's like emergency youth authorization.
So now you can meet your carbon goal in 2045 by burning coal.
That's great.
Wow.
That's good.
And this stuff goes through.
And even Amy, she does it straight faced.
Well, she's, you know, her religion is science.
You know, I've had some thoughts about climate change and other things happening.
And when we first started following, it started with Climategate.
I mean, this show has been tracking the... Play the jingle.
Yeah, I was actually going to see if I could find it.
I mean, it's so long, it's no longer current.
But yeah, so we've been around so long that we had a jingle for it.
When we first started seeing the reports of the numbers being doctored.
And the IPCC had already been in operation for a long time until it kind of crossed our radar.
And it was a big scandal.
And people should go back and read it.
It was a massive scandal.
You can find the original documents.
It was a massive scandal.
It's been covered up and they've said, oh no, this is normal, we change these things as scientists.
I mean, what else was the bullcrap explanation they had for doctoring the numbers?
Do you remember?
Oh, you know, I don't remember now, but it was like the first day it was a scandal.
The scandal existed and it was played up by the media for a while.
And then somebody put the kibosh on it.
Yeah.
And then they started making up rules.
Well, you know, we have to change these because there's a variable.
So there's numbers that should have been.
Didn't that happen before Al Gore's movie came out?
Or was after?
No, I'm pretty sure it was after.
After?
Okay, even better.
It was an epic scandal and, you know, no one talks about it anymore.
But what we talked about at the time is the origins of this, which of course we've seen some of the very same climate change people in the early 70s say we were going to have an ice age.
It was going to be global cooling, we were all going to die frozen in the ice.
And so, first of all, we were really happy because we like the heat better than the cold, I think.
We're universal on that.
But it really stems from the population bomb people.
And I think that's really the... We may not even have such a thing as left or right politicians.
Maybe it's just politicians who want less people and politicians who want more people.
Does that make any sense?
Well, politicians want more people so they can get cheap labor.
Well, no, at a fundamental basis, forget about, forget economy, everything.
Georgia Guidestones, you know, 500 million on earth.
I mean, how many times do we have to think about what they really want is less people?
And they're always saying vaccines get you less people and they have all kinds of explanations for it.
It just feels like that's the binary here.
You know, religious people, they want to go forth, multiply.
And the globalists typically, yeah, we got to keep you just barely alive to do work for us.
Starving to death.
Yeah, exactly.
Exactly.
So I'm looking at this chart here, which is the world population by year.
It's going, it's really, I mean, it's slowing down.
Yeah, it's slowing down.
Yearly change back in 2004 is 1.25% growth a year.
And in fact, I can go back to, where does this thing go back to?
This thing goes back there.
The year 5000.
It goes back to 5000 B.C.
when there were 5 million people.
And then around 0 B.C.
there was about 190 million and it went from there.
And then when the changes started, when they could actually track it accurately, in 1951 it was 1.88% growth.
And it continued to increase until around 1970 when that book came out.
And it seems as though... Wait, which book?
The Population Bomb?
Yeah.
It grew.
It was at 2.09% yearly change.
And from that point on, from about the 70s, it went to 1.94, then 1.89.
And it's never gone back up.
It's been going down ever since, right to today.
And right now, the growth, which was a lot of numbers here.
Well, this, of course, is when we introduced childhood vaccines, processed food, all kinds of other crap, iPhones.
I'm sorry.
That's true, but still in 1970, find the right number here.
In 1970, we had about 3.6 million, and now we got 7.7, so it adds up.
Compound interest makes a difference.
You make you rich.
Rich in human resources.
In 2019, we had 7.7 billion and now we're at 7.79.
But the growth rate has gone from, like I said, almost 2% in 1970 to 1.05% and it's falling and falling.
But the other trend that has to be noted is that the urban population has been growing like crazy.
Yeah, of course.
And that began in It crossed over to over 50%.
And when you say urban, you mean cities, not... Cities.
Yeah, cities.
Not the code for urban, which is black Americans.
So in 1951, the urban population, city growth was 30% and it's gone up and up and up and it's never really gone in reverse.
It's gone up and up.
I'm looking at all the numbers.
There's not one moment where it's gone down a notch and now it's up to 50.
It went from 30% now it's 56%.
And it just keeps growing and growing and growing.
But it doesn't mean, you know, people say, well, everyone's moving to the city, there's no farmers anymore.
No, they're succeeding.
That's growing too, by the way.
They're succeeding in killing us.
They want to.
Yes!
But the point is that...
If you've got this right now, the urban population is 4.3 billion and the total population is 7.7.
So there's plenty of people not in the cities.
It just so happens that they're concentrating in the cities.
There's lots of room is what you're saying.
Yeah, there's plenty of room.
Plenty of room.
Actually, there's more room if everyone's going to move to the city.
Yeah.
Okay, but this is slowing down at natural.
This is a natural phenomenon.
I don't believe it has anything to do with anything.
I mean, I think it is.
I mean, it's possible that it's not helping.
They can't slow it down.
The growth is going on until it gets to about, they figure it's going to stop at 10 billion.
Well, All I know is these people are real.
I think probably through... What was his name?
Brandt?
Who ran the well?
Is that Brandt?
Stuart Brandt?
Stuart Brandt.
Brandt, that's right.
He was one of the well guys.
He didn't run the well.
No, but he... I'm sure he took credit for it, but... No, but he... I think he was one of the population bomb guys and, you know, he was close with... You know, he was around Silicon Valley and... I don't know.
I feel like that kind of seeped in a bit.
Uh, to the conscience.
And if I'm just looking at Silicon Valley has always been kind of population controlled.
It's all around Stanford.
Stanford was where it came out of.
So that's all Silicon Valley.
That's right in the center of it.
What do you mean Stanford?
Were the population bomb people?
Yeah, Ehrlich wrote the book.
Ehrlich is a Stanford guy.
No, Ehrlich and Brandt.
Brandt wrote that book with Ehrlich.
They wrote it together.
I think.
Oh, look.
I'm pretty sure.
I'd be shocked if he did.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure he did.
I think they wrote it together.
No, but Brandt was the whole earth guy.
Yeah, I know, but I believe that he wrote with Ehrlich.
I think.
Well, you should check it out.
Very easy to figure out.
But if I just look at the news stories we talk about, we have climate change, clearly meant to kill people.
Not the climate change, but the measures they're putting in place.
I look at the food.
The Population Bomb is a 1968 book written by Stanford University professor Paul Ehrlich and his wife, Ann.
Then I'm mistaken.
Maybe he wrote a different book with him.
I don't think so.
Rand was associated with Ken Kesey and the Goofballs.
He wasn't associated with the Stanford professors.
That's a great band name.
Ken Kesey and the Goofballs?
I like that.
Anyway.
So climate change, you know, ultimately it's about removing people.
Vaccines.
I mean, I got my thoughts, but I'm like, yeah, okay.
Pretty much removing people.
Roe v. Wade.
Roe v. Wade is not just a U.S.
story.
This is playing everywhere.
The Netherlands, the U.K., France.
Don't you find that peculiar?
No, this is exactly the point.
This is what I'm trying to say.
Less people everywhere.
Not just America.
Georgia Guidestones.
And you want less people in Europe, but let's bring in more immigrants?
What's the point of that?
Well, you're just moving them from one to the other.
I mean, you're going to kill them no matter what.
That's a whole other thing.
That's to make the masses, you know, a mixture of brown and the true white supremacists, the real ones, like the royal families and the elite.
They're the ones, that's like Queen Ursula.
So no European leader has kids, almost.
Margarita doesn't.
Macron doesn't.
Boris Johnson doesn't really count.
Oh, that's a good point.
There's a lot of leaders of the... The Queen's the last one.
Well, but here's what's happening.
And it just all kind of came together in my head the other day.
The Queen, Queen Ursula, she has eight perfect beautiful German children, blonde hair, blue eyes, and that is celebrated.
Sie ist der Mutti.
So, I think we're dealing with, you know, people... Planned Parenthood started as a eugenicist organization.
Maybe it never stopped.
No, it didn't.
It started as a birth control organization.
Okay.
I mean, we can just get into an argument on the show about this, but as far as I'm concerned, Planned Parenthood started off as a birth control organization, which was not associated with eugenicism, which kind of Okay, let me give a little background the way I see it.
The eugenicist movement began in the United States in the 20s.
Yes, sir.
And it was a cool thing.
It was considered, oh, that's cool because it makes nothing but sense that we should breed ourselves to be better people.
In fact, I think it may have influenced Hitler and the Nazis.
It totally influenced Hitler and the Nazis, and that's what ruined it.
Not that it was a good idea, personally, but kind of the trend in the United States was all of a sudden, oops, we can't do that because Hitler did it.
He's ruined it for everybody.
And then it's become an underground thing, if it exists at all.
And I say Planned Parenthood might now be a eugenicist organization.
But they did not begin that way.
There's no evidence of that.
I'll agree with you on the technicality.
Margaret Sanger, however, was a eugenicist and she was proud of it.
During that period when it was yippee-ki-yay, it's a great idea.
I question that too, but I'll put that in abeyance.
But I question that.
I think that's a rewrite of history.
What's interesting is that that is now accepted in the leftist media.
I hear it all the time.
Well, now we all know, Margaret Sanger is problematic, but Planned Parenthood is really good.
And I totally agree with you that Planned Parenthood is now probably part of some eugenicist agenda.
Here's the thing that I discovered yesterday that blew me away.
Charles Darwin, The Origin of Species.
Would you say that's, to some degree, the science of humankind?
The opposite of evolution?
Is this work by Darwin?
No.
Which one?
I thought Natural Selection.
I thought that was his whole theory.
Yeah, well, that's evolution.
What did I say wrong?
You said that Darwin was the antithesis of evolution.
No, I meant creation.
I'm sorry.
Yes, thank you for correcting me.
The antithesis of the creation theory.
Religion.
Creationism.
So do you know the original title of the book or the work, whatever it's called, The Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection?
Because I didn't know this and it's right there on Wikipedia.
The full title.
Yeah, it's something that kind of alludes to creationism.
No.
Here it is.
I'm looking at a scan of the cover.
The origin of species by means of natural selection or the preservation of favored races in the struggle for life.
Oh.
When I saw that, I'm like... Oh yeah.
I remember.
Not yes, I'm... Yeah, you're right.
It's just one of those things.
You're like, what is going on?
Yeah, but this again, I will have to say that this is situational ethics.
I mean, during different periods of time, people had certain ways of seeing things.
Sure, sure.
And it was what you were raised in.
This is what we're doing now.
We're just reprogramming kids to think a different way.
If things had been different, we could be programming kids to think the exact same thing that they were thinking back in the 1800s or the 1700s or the 1600s.
And that's why I'm very adverse to people reverse engineering today's thinking to the past.
I think it's unfair.
Okay.
And that's one of the reasons I think that trying to rename, this is a bunch of clips I got from Amy, trying to rename the Webb Telescope, the new James Webb Telescope, to something else because James Webb was a anti-gay.
Yeah, this has been going on for a while.
They actually tried to change the name in Congress, I think.
There was a bill to change it and it didn't go anywhere.
Uh, I have clips.
Okay.
If you want to hear- Yeah, no, hello, hello.
Of course.
So let's go with Webb Telescope plus LGNTQ Democracy Now.
This week NASA released the first images from its new flagship James Webb Space Telescope, the JWST, revealing an unprecedented view of the cosmos, from galaxies that formed just a few hundred million years after the Big Bang to the births of stars and vast nebulas of gas and dust.
The telescope is named after James Webb, who led NASA during the 60s in the run-up to the Apollo moon landings.
Earlier this year, NASA Administrator Bill Nelson rejected a petition signed by over 1,200 astronomers and astrophysicists demanding a change to the telescope's name amidst new revelations about how Webb helped to purge NASA of LGBTQ plus workers as part of federal policy.
As part of federal policy, he helped to purge.
Yes, it was part of federal policy.
Helped to purge.
Oh, yeah.
And this is the Truman administration that started the federal policy.
Hello, Democrats.
I just want to mention that to you.
No context needed.
The second clip is the NASA versus the gays clip, and I want to preface it with this comment about the woman who comes on.
This is what would have been termed a lipstick lesbian, comes on years ago, comes on.
No, but we still understand the context.
Thank you.
And she's on and she has her pronouns on this, which has her name.
Wait, Democracy Now puts pronouns on the screen as a lower third?
Yeah.
Oh, no.
Yes.
Oh, everyone needs to do that.
OK, a newsflash.
Every single news program, everyone needs to put the pronouns in the lower third.
That's great.
So hers are they, them.
She's a lipstick lesbian.
Why can't she?
Why should it have to be they, them?
Well, I don't get that, but OK.
It's OK.
That's that's that's we're from.
Hey, you know what?
You can't reverse engineer history.
So, uh, you got they, them, and I'm thinking, how do you use that in a sentence?
Uh, I can understand- You're doing what you just said you hated people do.
Words were different back in your era, John.
Sexuality was different- Yes, but I'm trying to- I want you to tell me how you do this.
I could say, they went to the store, and then I want to say, them hair is brown?
How do I say her hair is brown into them?
Do I say them hair is brown?
I don't participate.
Them eyes are blue?
I don't participate in this.
Come on.
I want to hear.
I don't care.
I mean, you don't know.
I hate it when people try.
I don't get it.
I would like an explanation of, I know you could, it's easy to say they went to the store.
Okay.
They is one person, but okay.
I can live with that.
They went to the store, but them hair is brown.
I just can't figure out how you use that.
If you don't stop, if you don't stop asking questions, them's going to come over and beat you up.
That's how you use it.
It's not English anymore!
Come on!
English changes.
Okay, well anyway, so here she is.
I'm sorry, what did I do?
I'm sorry!
I deadnamed her, I did something wrong.
Yep.
Here they are.
Oh, that was the punchline.
I like it.
That was a good punchline.
Here they is telling us what them think.
What them's doing.
Unfortunately, the way that NASA has dug in its heels about naming the telescope after James Webb has really cast a pall over that for me personally and I know for a lot of other queer astronomers as well.
Um, you know, I thought that this was one of... Okay, I do have one issue.
I have one issue.
I don't like the hijack of the word queer.
I really don't.
It's not a hijack.
It's a total hijack.
Queer has been hijacked from the gays.
And she's gay men.
No, she's not.
You misnamed her, or whatever it's called.
Are you going to do this the entire show?
Are you going to do this the entire show, or is it just... Only during this segment.
Only during this clip.
Because she's the only... Oh, I did it too!
They put the pronouns on there and they is what you – The term queer was a gay – a male gay term.
And of course the gays took gay from gay.
I thought it was, I thought queer was a kind of an N word from the 50s and 60s, from the 50s.
season 60s where it wasn't supposed to be used when you weren't supposed to call anyone queer right you could they were homosexual you couldn't call them queer queer was a bad word again again we're trying to deconstruct what's happening now with past events i hate it when people do that well you and me both But that's what we do on this show.
Anyway.
We do hateful things.
We do.
Let's just finish this.
We're never going to get through it.
Let them finish.
...times to release this documentary in part because I think we in the astronomy community have gone through a number of different methods to try I personally was a member of the Astrophysics Advisory Committee for NASA for many years until I resigned over this issue last fall.
As part of that committee, we requested that there be an investigation and a report, which has never been released.
So, you know, I thought as part of Just Space and our producer and editor Katrina Jackson, who pitched this idea to us, you know, we really thought that laying out the case with the available information about the historical record and also showing its continuation into how queer astronomers are treated now in astronomy was an important thing to do in conjunction with this release of these new images.
What?! !
It's very important how queer astronomers are treated.
What, are they treated poorly?
I missed it.
Are they getting beaten up because they're, quote, queer?
I've never heard anything like this.
I've never heard that queer astronomers are being poorly treated.
You know, this is, this is kind of, you know, you're, okay, I'm going to agree with the point you're making ad nauseam.
This is ground zero of the attack on your speech, certainly in the United States, but it's everywhere.
And perhaps we should all just – I mean, there's people who I respect who work in corporate life, and I get an email from them, and it says, you know, pronoun, whatever, him, he, him, whatever it is.
They're putting their pronouns in their email signatures and it's coercion.
It really is the baseline coercion.
One of my kids does it, one of your kids does it, and they're not really They're not jumping up and down and going all nuts, but they will correct you.
They will try and set you straight.
And that is deep, deep, deep.
And because they're not freaking out about it, it's even scarier.
If they were like, like you did.
No, like it's them.
That's true.
They're patronizing us at this point.
They are.
They're patronizing us, which goes against godly parent and child relationship, I would say.
But if you want to know where it comes from, it's just a short clip.
Someone sent this to me.
It was on Instagram.
This is a Well, maybe she's queer.
I don't know.
But she's talking about her work 10 years ago at an NGO.
10 years ago, when I was working at an LGBT nonprofit, terms like transgender and gender identity, this was all extremely new.
The general public didn't have any understanding or concept of what these terms were.
There was no trans child.
There is no such thing as a trans child.
A trans child is a corporate fiction.
It doesn't exist.
It's as a concept being forced onto children.
But there was no such idea.
There were like teenagers and stuff that identified as trans and actually part of my job was going directly into the public schools in New York and work to indoctrinate youth with this new ideology and with these new terms and not Not just indoctrinate the youth, but also indoctrinate the educators.
And now indoctrination of youth is finally being exposed.
People think, like, where did all this come from?
This just started happening.
Like, it's coming from the UN, actually.
The UN is telling schools all over the world to implement this language.
Dan, there's some evidence to this that it's UNESCO programs.
I saw this clip.
Oh, you did?
And I didn't clip it because I didn't like the way it was edited, personally, and I thought I'd like to find a clip, a real clip.
Yeah, of course.
Because there's a bunch of talking like this and all of a sudden there's a clip in there.
There's edits, there's edits.
A lot of edits.
But I thought it was compelling because What's the UN trying to do this for?
What's the purpose of all this?
What is the purpose of this otherwise normal astronomer demanding to be called they instead of she?
Subversion.
Control.
It's subtle.
It's like, you know, you start with this and then before you know it, you have to bow before them.
Come on, this is how it starts.
And we're all just talking about it, letting it happen.
Maybe we should stop doing it.
I'm pretty sure you're not going to use they and thems on anybody, and if they don't want to talk to you, I know you will enough.
It's too hard.
You'll be like, well, F off.
I can't say them hair is brown.
I could say her hair is brown, her hair is brown.
Them hair is brown?
I just don't see how that fits into any structure that's known to man.
It's almost done on purpose just to make it sound like an idiot when you refer to the person.
Them hair is brown.
Them hair is brown.
You sound like a moron.
Yes.
Hello, you're finally getting it.
That's the whole point.
They're turning you all into moronic beings.
I'm very down on this.
It's quite obvious to me today for some reason.
It's like it's all coercion.
It's all horseshit.
All of it.
And it's been going on kind of a little bit in the schools and stuff.
That was going on and we weren't seeing that.
We weren't paying attention to that stuff.
So, let's hear some more of that.
These schools stink.
Yeah, we'll hear some more.
People in education should be ashamed of themselves.
Roe v. Wade, which I think kind of goes along with this vein that we're speaking of.
Two bills were introduced in the House.
The House, by the way, today passed two abortion bills aimed at protecting access to abortion in the wake of the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe.
One protects women who travel across state lines to get an abortion and the providers who treat them.
The other, more sweeping measure, would enshrine Roe vs. Wade into law.
They're both dead on arrival in the Senate.
Senate Republicans have already rejected both.
He could have done that much better.
He could have said, the abortion bills are dead on arrival.
That would have been funnier.
But no.
No puns.
No puns for this show.
Wow, that is good.
You should be a news writer.
Well, here's Pelosi.
Because it's all about the woman.
It's not about anything else.
It's not about anything else other than protecting women's rights.
And we offer hope to the American people who treasure our freedoms and who are overwhelmingly with us in our mission to defend them.
What do Republicans have in store next?
You can't travel to buy a book.
You can't travel to see a...
A concert or a play?
If they doesn't meet their, shall we say... I'm going to use the word standards.
Their what?
So it's political, is really what it is.
Thanks, Nancy.
We didn't realize it was political.
I think the Democrats have a strategy, though.
Really?
Yeah, I think they have.
You want to hear just an off-the-wall idea?
Well, I would love to.
I'm sure any Democrats out there would love to, too, because I'm sure they're clueless.
Go on.
Well, unfortunately, the Democrats don't control the strategy, but I think this is... Well, they might a little bit.
Here's just a version of what could happen.
The midterm elections, I think that's pretty obvious.
Democrats are going to come in.
They'll have a majority in the House, probably, and I would say most likely in the Senate.
And, you know, some other things will happen.
It's not even 100% sure, but it seems like people say, oh, it's going to be a shellacking, I think is your term.
And I think that's true.
And I think that's true.
I haven't used shellacking on this show for at least a decade.
Nah, you're a shellacker.
You're a shellacker if I ever saw one.
So they get in and the central bank, the Federal Reserve, will keep Really, they won't do the right thing so that by the time 2024 rolls around, we're going to be so mad at the Republicans that they didn't do anything.
And then maybe the Fed will do a 180 somewhere and change it.
But I think it's the money that controls how happy people will be with the Republicans.
There's nothing the Republican Party or the Democratic Party can actually do to lower inflation.
That's, you know, that's just not, they can't, I mean, yeah, I guess they could say, let's turn on the drilling pumps and stuff, but, you know, really, is that going to bring down the price quickly?
No.
Drilling pumps.
Whatever.
You got a drilling pump over there, Bill?
I need it over here.
Hey, Bob, why don't you go blow me?
I'm just trying to make an example.
You know, so it's... I think that that may be, then everyone will be really sick of four years of desperation and, you know, the cities may really be shit.
I mean, you can't even get a Starbucks anymore in Los Angeles, San Francisco, or... That'd be just the opposite of shit.
But did you hear that they closed 16 Starbucks because it's just too dangerous for the employees?
Where did they close them?
San Francisco, Los Angeles, Portland.
Hello.
Yeah.
Those are your dangerous cities.
I don't know why anybody does business there.
They should pull out everything.
I wouldn't.
They should turn.
Look, San Francisco.
Might as well be Cleveland, and I don't want to, I'm not insulting Cleveland, but I've been to Cleveland.
I've been to downtown St.
Louis.
The main part, you want to be in St.
Louis where it's safe?
You're not in St.
Louis.
You're outside of St.
Louis.
St.
Louis is a rough town.
San Francisco might as well be, and I'm surprised that these cities haven't become this already.
You know, they might as well be a Detroit.
San Francisco might as well be Cleveland.
It might as well be St.
Louis.
It's a city like that.
It's falling apart internally.
People should pull out of there.
And that's why you're staying?
I'm not in San Francisco.
I wouldn't live in San Francisco if it's the last thing going.
I thought I would never live in San Francisco.
You're living in the bleachers looking at the show.
Yeah!
Anyway... Cheap seats.
I'm into cheap seats.
So, this is kind of my thinking about how that might go.
And maybe that's why the Democrats, you know, they're just not going to be that worried.
They know it's... And this is also the way cycles go, but they really want that 2024.
And NPR?
Well, they're clueless.
The Democratic polling shows that Democrats by and large say they don't want Biden to run in 2024.
Don't believe it for a second.
Yep, they're frustrated with Biden.
But Biden is their best option to beat Trump.
Why?
Because he's proven he already can beat Trump.
Biden steps aside, they are left with a primary free-for-all.
So that's what the Republicans actually will have.
And Kamala Harris, which is to your point, yes.
Exactly.
I mean, what, Biden's going to endorse her right away?
Then they definitely lose in 2024?
Not endorse her?
Those weekly lunches are going to be awkward.
No good options except Joe Biden on the left.
So those polls are about how much Democrats are satisfied with Biden.
They're not about him running again.
On the right, I went back and looked at polling, you know, going back 20, 30 years when we've had sort of our current primary system, and there has never been a candidate so far ahead of the field as Ron DeSantis.
If you take out Donald Trump, he's running 20 plus points ahead of every other Republican.
So, if you were rational and there were people in charge of the Republican Party, what that would mean is that you have a two-person race between Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis, and there's plenty of evidence that Ron DeSantis could win in that head-to-head race.
But we don't live in a rational world.
No one's in charge of the Republican Party, and that's absolutely not what's going to happen.
You're going to have a whole lot of people throw their hat in the ring because no one learned anything from 2016.
I should have mentioned this was the NPR podcast, where apparently you get started at NPR.
If you know what I mean!
God, this was nuts!
But again, you stepped on my territory by pulling in the idea that the Democrats are clueless about Biden, and they want to run him again.
No, no, no.
I alley-ooped for you.
What are you talking about?
That was an alley-oop.
Well, I mean, I'm not going to say it's a good clip.
I didn't get it.
I didn't get it.
I can't blame anybody but myself.
Well, how about this?
This is good.
So maybe the idea is to, you know, not really let Trump go.
He may be shooting his wad too early.
Look, there's no way he can run in 2022.
So it has to be 2024.
And it's a long way off.
A lot of stuff.
You know, they could be, as I said, on MSNBC with Chuck Todd.
They could just be waiting for him to die.
But, you know, we have a team that's working very hard.
If she can get re-elected, she'll continue on the gold team.
Have you heard of the gold team?
No, but I'm about to.
Yeah, I would say Liz Cheney is the most powerful.
This is Luke Broadwater, reporter for the New York Times.
Wait, wait for it.
You know, we go, wait, I'm going to preface this.
We introduced this stupid idea because somebody suggested it in it.
Some politico, some moron suggested this idea probably a month or two ago.
And we kind of laughed it off.
I think I brought it in again, maybe a few weeks ago, but this keeps cropping up.
Like this is insanity, but polite, please.
Yeah.
I would say Liz Chen is the most powerful behind the scenes driving force on the committee.
Everybody I talk to says, you know, we've got some very aggressive Democrats on this committee, people who are known as very fierce fighters against Donald Trump.
That's sort of the reputation.
And all of them say Liz Cheney is tougher and more aggressive than we are behind the scenes.
And Liz Cheney also, because of her role with the so-called gold team, which is the team investigating Donald Trump, She's been sort of overseeing that team.
And so she has access to some of these depositions and interviews that other members and staff don't necessarily have.
And sometimes I hear from staffers who are completely surprised by something Liz Cheney will bring out at the last minute.
But that's part of the, I think, the success and the drama of these hearings is they do have teasers and they have cliffhangers.
And they've embraced the sort of elements of television Bullshit!
And that's why I think that they're getting something like, you know, an average of 14 million viewers for these hearings, which I think is unheard of for your normal congressional hearing.
Yeah, I'm glad I'm glad you called bullshit because this is exactly what's happening with these people.
They are convinced that and of course, the producer, the ex ABC News guy, they're convinced that they've made something beautiful.
This is a work of art.
This is... I mean, this is Emmy Award-winning shit right here.
Good job, everybody.
Wow.
Oh, okay.
That's the run-through.
We'll see you at today's dress rehearsal.
I mean, they love it!
They're in... They're in Hollywood now, and they think the ratings are great!
That's what a producer does.
You're getting 14 million viewers.
They've got to screw loose.
This thing runs at 9 in the morning.
They had one, one instance.
The first one.
The first one had 12 or maybe 14 million viewers.
The very first one, which was primetime.
And it was on every single network.
It was on ABC, NBC, CBS.
These are all prime time networks.
And it was on Fox.
You and I could get $14 million if we just sit there and look in the camera as goofballs.
As long as every station runs it.
If every station's running it, you're going to get a lot of views.
Yeah.
But once they added up the fact that they're not making any money, and they were only getting maybe 3 million true numbers per network, they just bailed on the thing.
It's probably getting less than a million.
Anyway, so the producer has... I like the 14, though.
Nice try, buddy.
Deluded.
The producer has arranged for the season finale, because it's just season one, the season finale to end on the 25th of July.
They didn't call it that, did they?
No, that's what I'm calling it.
Dude, that would have been top of the show if they had done that.
No, they did not call it.
But the season finale will be on July 25th.
That will once again be in prime time.
So perhaps all the networks will run it again and then just let Trump ride on that and then we'll get the new Congress in and the news cycle will slow down and he'll have to rekindle it and maybe he'll die or maybe we can make the economy so bad that people won't even come to Trump rallies anymore.
Can't afford the gas.
I don't know.
I mean, it seems...
It seems like that's kind of the only way they can go.
They have no, they have no clue.
You're right.
I made a point in the newsletter.
I asked the question, if these Democrats are so worried about Trump that they try doing anything they can to get him out of the picture, uh, why are they worried about him?
They're numbers themselves.
They don't know Biden beat him once, Biden can beat him again.
Maybe they blame the poor performance of the Republicans who take over, which of course is not nothing they can, can help.
Maybe that poor performance, but see, you're Trump guy.
So you're Trump guy.
See, told you Trump guy.
Anything like that is possible.
We talked about AOC interpreting these hearings differently.
And I have the clip now.
Thank you.
Producer sent that to me.
This is about the obvious feds, including the guy that, you know, no one just was never, never even questioned.
Apparently is just not in jail.
What was his name?
Ray Epps.
Yeah, Jan 6th.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's what I say.
The committee.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The committee.
This is all about January 6th.
Yeah.
Why didn't they bring that guy forward?
This is FBI phony.
Yeah, well of course.
So there were tons of feds.
Uh, but the way, so the way we interpret that is, okay, these are agent provocateurs, you know, they may have kicked it off or they may, you know, it seems like this one guy, Ray Epps, who, you know, is not getting the same treatment as people who've done similar things like telling people, let's go into the Capitol, which is, you know, in, in view of what, what people are being, uh, held for and some convicted for would be an offense.
So he's, so he seems like a fed.
In fact, this video of people calling him a fed.
But AOC, the hot tamale!
Props to Alex Stein.
She interprets this completely differently.
Listen.
And that there were actual officers working with us and we never got to the bottom of that and we never got any answers about that.
And then to this day we're just supposed to pretend that that never happened.
I have no idea what happened to the people on the inside who were very clearly sympathetic with what was going on and opening the doors wide open for that.
And I'm supposed to sit here and pretend like none of that ever happened.
So the cops held the door open, says AOC.
Okay.
Alright.
And she thinks that these were just bad actors inside the Capitol Police and federal agencies.
Oh yeah, they were white supremacists.
Hello!
Well, okay, so now we come to Malcolm Nance.
Who doesn't remember Malcolm Nance?
Very brave American hero.
Do you know Malcolm Nance?
The brave American hero.
He's the CIA guy?
Well, he's the ex-ex-intelligence... I think... When was he CIA?
Ex...
CIA guy and he decided that he's one of those guys that is like the McMullin character, using some connections to some intelligence agency to leverage his own standing in the world.
Correct.
Which is appalling, by the way.
I always thought these agencies were all altruistic, but I don't see any evidence of it with these guys.
It's about to get worse for you.
So when Russia When Russia invaded Ukraine unprovoked, I have to say it right.
I'm not getting the script right.
Unprovoked, Nance felt an incredible urge.
He had to go.
He had an urge to go over there.
An urge.
I don't know where that came from.
I like it.
So he had an urge.
And this and this nurge was to go there and fight and fight for democracy for Ukrainians.
So I have two clips that pertain to January 6, but here's the setup.
It's one minute of him just, you know, because, you know, he's back.
He's back now.
And you know what?
He was fighting the Russians, but he had time to write a book.
So that's why he's here.
He's with Tiffany Cross on MSNBC.
And we do have several hundred Americans who are part of the International Legion for the Territorial Defense of Ukraine.
The unit that I'm a part of, that combat unit, which we do have a front line.
Everyone we're facing is Russian.
We do get routinely bombarded.
We routinely fight.
But we have to hold that line because what's behind us is what's most important.
That's the innocent men, women, and children of Ukraine.
And we're there with almost 900,000 other people holding 3,000, no, it's about 2,500 kilometers of war front against Russia.
So did you actually engage in combat, physical combat, over there?
Well, I'm part of the intelligence apparatus.
I run the Chinese intelligence apparatus.
I haven't actually fired my firearm at a Russian, but I carry a firearm every day.
We do get bombarded.
We do actually send artillery back.
With UPS?
How do you send it back, Nance?
Sailmates sort of war.
When the war goes more kinetic, of course, because I'm part of the command team, we have to be prepared to fight.
Ah, he's part of the command team for the intelligence unit, and I carry a weapon with me at all times, and I write a book while I'm doing this important intelligence work.
So, this book, when I was over there I realized something about America.
It was bad, it was bad back home.
That's why I'm back to fight here back home.
That all sounds very frightening, the war happening in Ukraine.
I wonder... That all sounds... This is the most sincere thing she could have said.
That all sounds really frightening, that intelligence work you're doing as a part of the combat brigade.
That sounds very frightening, the war happening in Ukraine.
I wonder what a war here in this country might look like.
A war!
And that's what your book is essentially about, because you just faced off with people who were trying to kill Americans.
You are coming home to people who you say are also trying to kill Americans.
Hold on a second!
Are the Russians trying to kill Americans?
I guess so.
That's what she just said.
That's what it sounds like.
You just came back from a war where people are trying to kill Americans.
But she said Americans, trying to kill Americans.
Not Ukrainians.
Oh, you mean Ukraine?
Yeah, but that's what they do there.
You are coming home to people who you say are also trying to kill Americans.
Tell me who you're talking about.
Back it up, back it up.
I want to hear the whole thing again.
And that's what your book is essentially about, because you just faced off with people who were trying to kill Americans.
You are coming home to people who you say are also trying to kill Americans.
Tell me who you're talking about when you say that.
You know, I juxtapose my time in Ukraine as that being the eastern theater in the defense of global democracy.
And every once in a while, I hear what's going on back in the States.
I take a look at my Twitter feed.
I look over my shoulder at the Western Wall in the defense of democracy here in the United States.
And it's collapsing.
Yeah.
It appears to be collapsing.
We have, you know, when I predicted this on November 6, 2020, when I was on real time with Bill Maher, everybody was saying kumbaya, time to shake hands, time to understand what they really want.
And I said, I'm seeing something completely different.
Nailed it.
I'm seeing an insurgency form.
Yeah.
And that is a campaign to destabilize the sitting government.
And 62 days later, the first strike of that insurgency would happen, which was the insurrection here at the Capitol.
Nailed it!
An insurgency is a long-term campaign.
It's not a one-day thing.
And you've seen since that time, they have been pushing their campaign both politically and threats of paramilitary and personal action.
Okay.
There's a lot in there to digest.
Well, let's go.
I want to digest one thing from the first clip you played.
He says that there's a tooth.
He says they're on the front lines with the Russians.
Yeah.
He's got a gun by his side.
He's not shooting at him, but he's there.
And he says the front, the Russian, the front is 2,000 miles.
Yes.
2,000 miles.
Two and a half.
Do you know the distance from San Diego to Seattle is 1,200 miles?
So you're telling me, what is this?
What kind of a front line is it that's 2,000 miles of fighting?
Come on, you dumb shit!
Nice!
Yeah, I mean, it's very obvious what he's come home to do in this book that he's written.
He's an amazing man that he had time to defend Americans being killed in Ukraine, without firing his weapon once, and to be in the command team.
Don't forget he carries it.
He does carry it, at all times.
And he would send some, you know, when they had something incoming, they'd send it back, like, oh, dear Putin, I'm going to send this back to you, call the FedEx, scan the code.
So yeah, of course.
But it's just in case it wasn't obvious what he's really talking about.
I think we can kind of figure it out, can't we?
I really believe, you know, I'm a Philadelphian.
I'm an originalist on this thing.
I'm offended, deeply offended when I see people use the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States to justify trying to invent a world that is strictly limited to one ethnic group in the United States.
These are the same, you know, I'm talking about, you know, Trump supporting Caucasian voters.
I'm sorry, but that's who your demographic is.
Trump supporting Caucasian voters.
Trump supporting Caucasian voters.
So they're voters.
They're Caucasian.
And they support Trump.
This is your problem.
That's what it sounds like.
That's your demographic right there.
That is the same people.
In fact, they are Russians.
They're actually Russians because they also want to kill Americans.
And don't you dare tell me about something.
I'm a Philadelphian.
The city of brotherly love.
I'm a traditional constitutionalist in the United States.
These are the same, you know, I'm talking about, you know, Trump supporting Caucasian voters.
I'm sorry, but that's who your demographic is.
You know, if I were to do an intelligence analysis from.
Listen to the black lady go, yeah, this is so embarrassing for these people.
Ethic is, you know, if I were to do an intelligence analysis from for MI6, you know, that's precisely how it would be.
Oh, you're worse to them now, too.
The truth comes out with this guy.
No, he's not working for them.
I'm sure they wrote the book for him.
MI6 is a bigger enemy than we realize.
I'm quite convinced of that.
The analysis for MI6, you know that's precisely how it would read, right?
No one's fooling anybody here.
The problem is that they feel that their position within society over the last 245 years, their current strength and how strongly they feel about Donald Trump, gives them an advantage that should wipe out all equality in America.
They want to remove the words diversity from America.
They want to remove the words equality from government documents.
No, we only want to remove the pronouns they and them.
That's all!
This is what we fought for.
When my great-great-grandfather and his brother ran away from slavery, their first thought wasn't, oh, let's go up to Mississippi and get jobs.
It was, let's go to Tennessee, get into the U.S.
Army uniform and fight.
for what little incremental progress we can make.
But they weren't fighting just for black slaves who had run away.
They were fighting for all America.
My family serves for all America.
I still serve for America by giving you this warning.
But if you're a real American, you'll look at yourself and say, hey, wait a minute, am I part of this?
Am I here to use the Constitution as a fig leaf and tear away all the rights from your other fellow citizens?
I mean, well, there's that old term.
I bring it up once in a while.
It's called the shuck and jive artist.
Yeah, yeah.
And this guy seems to be one of them.
So, you know, this is programming somebody, it's making somebody feel good.
And how is the Constitution being used as a fig leaf?
I'm not quite sure I understand.
I don't know what he's talking about.
Maybe he meant as a wedge?
Well, that's kind of, he is kind of, he has a bit of Sharpton-esque in him because, you know, His grammar is proper, unlike Sharpton, but he just says weird shit.
It's just like, what?
What are you talking about?
And we have to go look and see if he used the word insurgency on Bill Maher when he was on.
I don't remember that.
Maybe he did.
It might be hard to use.
Anyway, what's happening... I'll go back and find it.
Yeah, we'll find that.
It's available.
The war in Ukraine is, of course, a war against Americans.
Russians killing Americans.
But it's a problem that the messaging is dying down.
It's not really front news.
I think we don't actually have Americans dying or Europeans dying.
That's part of the marketing problem of this.
And it's being just used, you know, it's been concatenated to, or abstracted to, Putin's prize hike!
And that has to include the war in Ukraine.
So NATO needs to combat these false, false rumors about Russia.
About what's really going down, how this took place and, you know, because of disinformation.
So they made a beautiful animated video to share with us exactly that.
Russia continues to spread lots of false myths about NATO.
So let us set the record straight.
One myth is that NATO is aggressive towards Russia and is trying to encircle it.
This is not true.
NATO is a defensive alliance.
Its purpose is to protect its allies.
NATO does not seek confrontation and poses no threat to Russia.
Every sovereign nation has the right to choose its own security arrangements.
Russia has subscribed to this fundamental principle.
We stay true to it and invite Russia to do the same.
Another myth is that NATO promised Russia it would not expand after the Cold War.
No such agreement was ever concluded.
Concluded?
NATO's door has been open to new members since it was founded in 1949.
Welcome!
And this has never changed.
This open-door policy is also enshrined in Article 10 of NATO's founding treaty.
Decisions about membership are taken by consensus among all allies.
No treaty signed by the United States, Europe and Russia includes provisions regarding NATO membership.
The myths need to be dismantled.
The record needs to be set straight.
Thanks, NATO!
So, you understand now?
Russia... No!
...is full of shit, of course it is.
They're full of shit.
Russia is just not, it's always not true.
There's so much... I would call it outright cover-up going on right now, certainly about Russia stuff, and when it comes to the primetime purge.
Last night we were skimming around through what can we watch.
There's not much going on, but there's a new series.
The new series is on Netflix, Web of Make-Believe, Death, Lies, and the Internet.
And you probably haven't seen this, but we looked at the first episode and it was, uh, it was something that was actually kind of decent, you know, but I don't remember what it was.
It was about some scam that people pull on the internet.
And I said, this is really, this is, this is produced ghost.
Actually, I should probably look at that.
I should see what that was, which one it was.
Um, And I thought, you know, this is kind of decent.
It's all right.
It looked really well made.
And so, you know, while we're watching the first episode, I look it up and it's Ron Howard.
Ron Howard has produced this and I think he might... He's no slouch.
Well, he's no slouch.
He's also a massive insider for the Democratic Party, I would say.
He's a huge woke Democrat stooge.
Let's put it that way.
The first one was death by SWAT, which is very compelling because, you know, this swatting of people where you call the SWAT team and it happens amongst gamers a lot and happens to Tim Pool a lot.
And then this is their stories of this guy who did 37 swattings.
He had courtrooms evacuated with his phony calls.
Uh, and then one time one of these gamers gave him a, I said, Oh, come and come and swap me punk.
And he gave his old address and the guy over there just opened the door and got shot by the cops.
So, you know, I was like, Oh, this is pretty compelling.
But I think that was just to draw us... That's actually a good story, yeah.
Yeah, I think that was just to draw us into episode 2.
A murder in DC.
And this is about Seth Rich.
Ah.
Oh, they leave out any mention Of the transfer of the files, you know, and I had to show Tina, I had to show Tina William Binney where they, they did forensic evidence, you know, they're like, no, no, this was transferred to a storage device.
They put Binney on, obviously Ron Howard would bring Binney on the show.
No, no, no mention of Binney.
Ron Howard would bring Binney on because it makes nothing but sense.
Not even mention of- What?
Really, of what's in the emails, you know, like Donna Brazile and all the- None of that.
You know, Debbie Wasserman Schultz had to resign over what was in those emails.
This is Podesta-level shit.
And then- And then they- How do you put that in there?
What?
No!
No!
Of course not!
What the hell?
What would be in there?
Nothing?
No, it was like yoga, yoga things, recipes, joking back and forth.
No mention of any of this.
What they had mention of is Rod Wheeler and all these, you know, Bukowski and all these weirdos who showed up to get on the news and these poor parents are like, we didn't tell them to do that and so they kept getting kind of hoodwinked by I would say, you know, like Alex Jones wannabes, people who have a little bit of cash and they'll do some, get some investigation going and then they go on TV and then they just start spouting and spouting and it's a mess for those people.
But no, no discussion of any of the things that we know.
Even, well, you know, the server went to CrowdStrike in Ukraine.
You know, no mention the FBI never really saw it.
All of this stuff.
Just the guy from CrowdStrike going, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So what you're telling me is Ron Howard basically just did a whitewash video just to do a cover-up for the Democratic Party.
Yes.
Yes.
Okay, well good for him.
But why?
What are they worried of?
I mean, are people that close to spilling the beans that somehow magically this will flow across the M5M?
What are they worried about?
Nothing seems to penetrate.
I have no idea what they're worried about because it's so water under the bridge-ish that it shouldn't concern anybody.
Exactly!
There must be something, you're right, there must have to be something that's big and they have to continue to cover it up.
And there's a lot of articles about that, I put a couple in the show notes.
A lot of people tried to help me out with this and I really appreciate the Clip Custodian, he pulled it out of his butt.
Since we're talking about cover up and the media not reporting truthfully, he made us a little supercut.
Of reasons why people are dying.
Guess what it does not include.
In tonight's Medical Alert, calcium supplements are so popular, but a recent study shows they can increase your chances of a heart attack.
Studies show chemicals in cannabis are linked to an increased risk of heart attack.
You might be vaping as a step toward quitting cigs, thinking it's less bad, right?
But guess what?
It looks like it's just as bad for your heart.
So tell us about this link between shoveling snow and heart attacks.
Energy drink monster.
Can it kill?
The FDA says it has received reports of five deaths and one heart attack.
They found that people who live near higher levels of traffic noise had a higher risk of having a heart attack.
A recent study found being lonely and socially isolated can contribute to the risk for heart disease.
20% of people who present with either a heart attack or what we call an acute coronary syndrome actually have depression.
The report indicates that Particle pollution could cause an increased risk of heart attacks, strokes.
Your risk of getting a heart attack increases if you work out while you're stressed.
Adults who ate several eggs per week had significantly higher cholesterol and were more susceptible to cardiovascular disease and death.
Believe and Advil already caution users about possible heart risks.
Now the FDA is strengthening those warnings.
They raised it from these may cause an increased risk of heart attack and stroke to they do cause an increased risk of heart attack and stroke.
Just a sampling.
Just a little sampling.
Gardening is going to kill you.
Being lonely will kill you.
You're going to have a heart attack.
Looking at the sky.
Oh, don't look at the sun.
Oh, washing the car.
For sure.
Washing the car.
I love the working out while you're stressed.
A lot of people work out to relieve stress.
Oh no, that'll kill you.
That'll kill you.
My favorite thing which I heard in there, which is not about the heart attack, but the common use of guess what?
during the report.
So people have a heartache, guess what?
And then they say, guess what?
And they just throw out guess what?
And I'm always, you know me. - You're always guessing. - I'm, should I stop and guess? - That's the point.
So what is the point of that NLP, the neurological, neuro-linguistic programming trick?
What is it?
Guess what?
Is that to get your attention?
Like, oh, now my brain is going, and I guess... Well, there's two things that are used as that sort of filler.
One is, guess what?
And the other one is, you know what?
Which is also a question.
You know what?
I always say, yes.
Fuck off.
I do.
Go away.
So if you're wondering why is it that no one's really speaking up about things that might be actually happening, it's because everyone's constrained.
Everybody's constrained, including doctors.
And this guy's been around.
I'm not quite sure how he, as a doctor at Johns Hopkins, is allowed to do this.
He's been doing it since, I think we have a clip from him from March of 2021, Marty McCary.
And he just lays it out there why you're not hearing about people actually having adverse events to vaccination.
Doctors everywhere in the world, even in the government, should always be free to speak up about their public health concerns.
It's a sacred right that we have to guard.
But right now, in the government, recently, and this is a trend in the last year, doctors are muzzled.
I've talked to many doctors for this piece at NIH and CDC who are extremely frustrated.
They're smart people.
They know that a vaccine efficacy of 4% doesn't warrant an authorization.
They also know that there's no health emergency right now among kids six months of age.
So, I learned a lot.
They know the underlying data.
They know it's inappropriate.
They're not allowed to speak to anyone.
If a reporter calls, the communications office has to approve the conversation.
And if they want to ask the scientists whether or not they want to do this, they'll say, tell us what you're going to tell the reporter, and then we'll decide whether or not to approve it.
At the CDC, a bunch of scientists actually said, Look, we recognize the insanity of mass testing trying to chase down every case of the virus in the United States.
It's ubiquitous now.
It's not contained.
So they came up with a plan to use sampling data like we do with influenza every year and to get better numbers from the hospital of those truly in there for COVID, not just everybody with incidental COVID tests.
And that plan was proposed and it was rejected and they say it was rejected by the White House and over and over in the different agencies I heard from smart people who were just extremely frustrated that not only are they bypassing the normal scientific process but they really can't say anything because if they do they know that their jobs are at risk and they'll be treated very differently.
One person even said There's no transparency as to how Dr. Fauci makes his decisions.
He doesn't even consult with the real experts.
And other people have said other things, like it's demoralizing.
One person at the FDA, even who knows the data really well, said that they feel that they're watching a horror show and they can't close their eyes.
They're being forced to watch this.
If public health wants to restore some credibility, and there's good people in public health, they've been sidelined.
The leaders have to have more humility, less absolutism, more answers like we don't know when that's the right answer, and less paternalism.
That's the only way we're going to rebuild trust in the medical profession and in public health.
Again, I don't know how he's allowed to do this as being employed by Johns Hopkins.
But it rings true.
Luckily, two doctors went to the Tennessee government and they testified in the Tennessee House.
How do I know they're doctors?
They were wearing lab coats.
This is very good, guys.
Keep that up.
We need that and this kind of speak.
700,000 people in the study in Israel, just so you know, that showed that the double vax were 27 times more likely to get reinfected.
So it's not the vaccine, even if we just talk about that, is not stopping infection.
It's not stopping transmission.
If you look at the studies in England, in Scotland, in the northern countries in Europe, where they get real data, that they're actually the triple vaccinated, the most likely to die.
So bottom line is that as we go forward, The natural immunity is long, broad, and durable.
And I don't know if he mentioned it, but we have SARS-CoV-1 patients who still had immunity 18 years later.
Let that sink in.
18 years later, we still had immunity from SARS-CoV-1 to SARS-CoV-2.
This is long, broad, durable immunity.
So what I want to say in closing is, natural immunity should be considered legally to be at least equal to vaccinated immunity, and immunity is likely lifelong.
Thank you.
Just like, guess what?
I don't like it when someone says, let that sink in.
Why don't you just shut up for three seconds and let that sink in?
What's the other one?
There's another one that's, uh, is think about it.
Think about it.
Well, that's Biden does think about it.
A couple more.
Oh, this just in, uh, from Italy.
Sudden and unexpected.
At least 11 vacationers dropped dead on Italian beaches in 24 hours.
Must be the sun.
Maybe it's the bikinis.
Bikinis are killing people.
Could be the fruit juice.
Who knows?
Bikinis killing people.
Drop dead.
Yeah.
Oh, no, we're going to hear a lot about this now.
Geert van den Bosch is back.
He's the guy that has been saying since early on, you do not mass vaccinate.
This is not a good idea.
The tears will come.
And he's calling.
Now he's tripling down on his predictions.
He's saying it.
I'm sorry.
I hate to have to say it, but here's what's going to happen.
He does give us some solutions.
Because he taught us, I think on the last episode we played a clip, we said because of the vaccinations and what they do to the immune system, the vaccinated are literally creating variants and their immune system just may give up eventually and not be able to handle any of it anymore.
And by the way, again, he has some very specific examples, stuff you can do.
I'm not trying to fear monger.
I don't think this will happen to everybody.
I don't think, oh, everyone who's vaccinated is going to die.
But we don't know.
So let's see what Geert has to say.
To realize that most of the vaccinees that are coming to the hospital right now, they are still not, you know, the majority is still not hospitalized because of COVID-19.
These are typically the patients, you know, that are suffering from other diseases because of, I would say, immune suppression due to COVID.
So they are hospitalized with COVID, but they come with a number of other diseases.
No, what will happen next, I tell you, what will happen next is that finally these people, you know, they are a breeding ground for, you know, the more virulent variants of COVID-19 that ultimately, when the virus manages, and that will happen, manages to overcome
The virulence-neutralizing activity that is now exerted by the infection-enhancing antibodies, right, when the virus will overcome that activity, you know, the virulence-neutralizing or virulence-inhibiting activity of these antibodies, then what we will see all of a sudden is that the virus that is highly infectious in those people, you know, will completely resist
any last immune defense against virulence and will blow not only through the innate immune system but even through the adaptive immune system.
And that is why I'm saying, you know, for me that is not fun at all to kind of like discriminate vaccines and my heart goes out to these people.
What I'm telling is that there is an urgent need, an urgent need to make antivirals available to these people and it needs to go very very fast.
I recommend everyone who is thoroughly vaccinated, especially those who got vaccinated early on during the pandemic because they had no opportunity to train their innate immunity, right?
And they just have their vaccinal antibodies that will be completely worthless and that will even enhance the disease to get their hands on antivirals.
Because otherwise, what we are going to see, I mean, I have no doubt about this, is huge rates of severe morbidity and mortality.
To begin with, in people who have been vaccinated early on in the vaccination program, before they even had a chance to, you know, to be exposed to the virus, and to train them to some extent their innate immunity.
That is what we are going to see.
So what I didn't clip, but you can only guess what he had to say about inoculation or vaccination of mRNA with infants six months and older.
He said this is a disaster.
The children don't get a chance to develop, as you heard him talking about, your innate immunity.
And he says, particularly people who were never exposed to the virus early on, who got vaccinated right away.
And he says, I hate to discriminate, but you guys are screwed or potentially.
And if you keep on boosting, then you're going to need antivirus for all the crap that's going to come down the pike.
And of course, if you look up COVID antivirals, this is the guy.
Oh, the guy, the anti, yeah.
Yeah, he's the guy that has very highly, highly accredited, you know, McCullough level type guy.
In immunology.
And he says, you know, you got to get antivirals.
Of course, if you, if you just, because I immediately searched COVID antivirals, what pops up?
Remdesivir and Paxilovir.
Remdesivir is dangerous.
Yeah, I wouldn't, I wouldn't say that.
But if you look a little bit further, I mean, people are saying ivermectin, oregano.
What?
Yeah.
But I think Tamiflu.
I think Tamiflu and Cipro and, you know, cause it's not, it's not about the COVID.
It's all the other stuff he won't be able to fight off.
That's the way I understand it.
Yeah, maybe.
What is indisputable, and I didn't clip this until I just read it to you, is people who notice death rates going up.
These people are typically working the health insurance or life insurance industry.
But there's a full interview, you can look at it, link in the show notes, of a family business for 30 years.
They've been making caskets.
This is usually a pretty good bellwether.
Typically, the casket industry remains pretty stable, and an unusually big casket order usually indicates a traumatic event, but recent sales indicate this has changed.
Not only are sales up, but in the past, for every five full-size caskets we sold, we sold one youth size.
Now, for every five, it's two.
Two?
They say they're receiving bulk orders for smaller-size caskets first in their 30-year history.
So.
Heaven forbid the news media look into these stories.
Seems like something you would want to look into.
It sounds like some good writing.
You know, hey, there's a Pulitzer in this for someone.
Instead, here's what we get on CNN.
Should people be masking indoors again, given the extra infectious nature of this new variant?
Well, as the CDC makes it very clear, depending upon the density of infection and the dynamics of infection in the place where you live, and you see... Have you ever heard of the dynamics of infection?
This is new, John.
Now we have a dynamometer to check how the infection is in certain spaces.
...the dynamics of infection in the place where you live, and you see, if you look at the map...
Where just a couple of months ago it was a lot of green and some yellow, now we're seeing a fair amount of orange, which means you really should, in an indoor setting, a congregate setting, be wearing masks.
It's just the appropriate thing to do to protect yourself.
And your family, and those around you, because you could get infected and inadvertently, without any symptoms, transmit it to someone, perhaps in your own household, who's vulnerable.
Either an elderly person, or someone with immune compromise.
And that's the reason why when you're in an area where the infection dynamic is high, you should wear a mask in a congregate indoor setting.
Congregate?
Oh, I like the use of the word congregate setting.
Like congregation, church.
Don't go to church.
What's the current timetable, do you think, for approval for Americans under 50 to get their second booster shot?
Well, it's being very seriously and actively considered, John.
We were talking about this just literally every day for the last couple of days.
Obviously, this is something that is an FDA regulatory decision.
Those are the people most qualified to look at the data, And to make a decision whether or not they would extend the regulation to be able to give it to people less than 50.
But I can tell you this is something that is being actively discussed.
I can't predict if and when it will happen, but I believe it's going to be within a very reasonable period of time.
So, just keep on boosting people.
Can I ask you a question?
Yeah.
How come they haven't given this thing full FDA approval?
How long do we have to wait before this thing actually gets approved?
You mean the... As opposed to emergency use authorization.
You mean the fourth booster shot?
Or any of them.
The first one, the first shot, the second shot, the third shot, the fourth shot, the upcoming fifth shot, the sixth shot.
Well, it's obvious.
The shot for the kids, the shot for the little boys, the shot for the babies, all those shots.
They're all still under... Why can't they get this approved?
What's the deal?
What's the problem?
Well, they did, but we don't have access to Cominarty here in America.
No, there's one of them, but that's never been here.
That's what I'm saying, we don't have access.
That's what I'm saying, we don't have access to that.
Well, okay, here's another question for you then.
When the Comirnaty one was approved, which it was...
Everybody came out and it was, I believe we have clips.
In fact, we had clips where they said, well, don't worry about it.
It's exactly the same as the Pfizer.
Well, if that's the case, if it's exactly the same, then why don't they approve the Pfizer?
Why don't they just give it the stamp of approval if it's exactly the same?
It's still under emergency use.
Am I wrong?
Maybe you're not using the right pronouns.
No one can answer you anymore.
Obviously, this is the problem.
I'd just like to know why they can't... Does anybody notice this?
We do!
That's called letting it sink in.
I love that.
That was perfect.
Let it sink in, people.
Let it sink in.
Think about it.
Think about it.
That was really good.
And with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage.
In the morning, to you, the man who put the sea in coffins for kids.
Ladies and gentlemen, my friend on the other end, Mr. John C. DeVore.
Well, in the morning to you, Mr. Adam Curry, if that is indeed your real name.
In the morning to all ships and seaboats to the ground, feet in the air, subs in the water, all the dames and knights out there.
In the morning to the trolls in the troll room.
Hey, trolls, how you doing?
It's Sunday, let's count y'all.
Okay, hands up, let's see.
The trolls are scurrying around.
Oh yeah!
Troll count back up a little bit.
2338 for today.
We'll take it.
These are pipples listening live to... About a hundred more than last Sunday.
So that's good.
I welcome that.
I welcome that.
About a hundred more.
They're listening live at NoahJennerStream.com and they're trolling along in the troll room at trollroom.io.
They've already handed me some one-liners.
I like it.
I appreciate it.
That's why I always log in, you know, see what's... It's not like we're going to get any material.
Hey, at least I don't have to pay someone like you do.
Marty the Joke Writer.
Who am I paying?
You pay Marty the Joke Writer.
I haven't paid Marty the Joke Writer for actual material for decades.
And he's coming today after he hears that.
He's like, is that Dvorak?
He owes me some.
Doesn't he sell them for ten bucks a pop?
To get jokes written, first you have to find some joke writers that are around.
They're around.
Yeah, Marty.
Well, Marty doesn't do that so much.
I mean, he does his own material, but there's joke writers around.
They're usually out of work comedians, but to work with them is fantastic because they just, it's just, they have a different, their brain works different.
It's like artists.
They see things differently.
You know, those brains, they could get a heart attack.
That $10 a pop thing, I don't know.
I mean, that was the last time I had jokes written.
That was in the 80s.
Okay.
That's now $1,000, so congratulations.
I don't know, you know, it was $10 in the 60s.
It was $10, because we had a guy, when I was at KFJC in Foothill College, there was a guy there was buying jokes and it was in the, you know, for, oh, he, no, he was writing jokes for, this one guy who was in the class, he was writing jokes for Phyllis Diller.
Oh, really?
Yeah, and she was paying ten bucks a joke, and it was ten bucks a joke later, and it's ten bucks... as far as I know, it's... I don't know, like... Maybe it's still ten bucks a joke.
The price has got to go to twenty someday.
Anyway, the trolls are worth ten bucks a pop, at least.
It could be more.
It could be a thousand with inflation.
And besides that...
It's just a fun place to go hang out and talk.
You know, shitpost if you want, but hang out.
You'll find nice people there.
If you want to find really nice people, sorry.
But some trolls also go to noagendasocial.com, which is where we have a Mastodon federated instance, so you can follow.
I got a great shitposter on there the other day.
He was really saying horrible things.
I kind of engaged with him and then, you know, of course he turns out to be really intelligent.
Dropped his guard for two moments.
And I pointed it out and then that was it.
Give us the story again.
I wasn't following.
Oh, I'm not prepared for it.
I could read it, but it's...
But now somebody was giving you grief.
But the point is, well, someone was saying, oh, you can just block the whole domain.
I'm like, I don't block any domains here.
We block nothing.
No, you block it.
You very rarely block.
No, but I mean, but I, but I have, I'm not a blocker.
I'm a lover.
I have the power, the God mode power to block an entire domain from being seen on knowage into social.
And there's nothing there.
Oh, you wouldn't do that.
No!
Of course, I would miss this dynamite material, which I will prepare for the next show.
You'll like it.
It's mostly... Some of it's pretty sick.
Yeah, but I think I can prepare some fun material.
Anyway...
Turns out the shitposters are okay, actually.
You just gotta engage them differently.
Everyone gets all triggered.
So not worth it.
So anyway, what we don't have is algos that keep triggering you.
It's calm.
It's a conversation you can block.
If you don't like a domain, you can block it for yourself and you'll never see anything from there.
That's democracy, okay?
That's hanging in a balance.
Just saying.
That is noagendasocial.com.
Follow Adam at noagendasocial.com, John C. Dvorak at noagendasocial.com.
It's a good idea.
Now let's take a look at the artwork and the artist who brought it to us for episode 1468.
We titled that Super Wokes.
Which I think was appropriate.
People were going crazy over this art.
They wanted it on t-shirts right away.
Hello, No Agenda Shop.
This was brought to us by, was it Capitalist Agenda, I believe?
Who's really working hard.
He had a hat trick in the last couple of weeks and now he's back.
This was the Wile E. Coyote.
Who fell through the ground, or splat on the ground.
He was holding a BA5 sign for the variant.
And then a big booster anvil, ACJCD with a little lightning bolt, coffee cup.
It was hitting, and also the No Agenda font that he used, it was hitting a lot of... No, he just nailed that.
That's what you call a nailed it piece.
There was nothing... I mean, that's not the piece that you were attracted to.
No, but...
But it's the, if you look, you like the, for one thing, you did like Riley's 4,000 Beagles.
I didn't like, I like Riley's stuff, generally speaking.
Well, you didn't see, you know, your, what you said was, I said, I like that.
You said, well, I don't get it.
It's Fauci.
Oh, so I didn't see Fauci.
So when that happens, then it didn't work.
And then that was enough for me, even though I prefer it.
If you didn't see it, didn't work, no good.
Veto.
And so it wasn't a veto, I just said that I didn't like it.
And then, but I like this Wiley-Connor thing because it's just slick looking.
It was, it was, it looks hyper professional.
And the composition's dynamite.
Everything about it has not a flaw, I can imagine.
And I can imagine flaws, believe me.
There was a lot of mac and cheese art.
I personally liked Tante Neill's Bastille Day, which you just hated because it's Tante Neill.
Then Mountain J's Let Them Eat Mac and Cheese with Marie Antoinette.
I think you said, another woman I hate.
So those had to go.
You didn't get me into trouble with the ladies.
Oh yeah.
Now we did discuss, it was kind of between Capitalist Agenda... Oh no, I'll tell you, okay.
Yeah, the Bastille Day by Tantanille.
I just didn't like it.
For one thing, the French flag folds into the red of the French flag in the background.
I don't like that.
You didn't make that point.
The point you made at the time was about the font.
The legibility was an issue.
Yeah, and I did not disagree.
But that was after you told me the real reason.
Now, we also liked Capitalist Agenda's coup.
There was the tacos, and they were holding up the C-O-U-P letters?
Yes.
Yeah, I liked that piece.
A bit.
It was nice.
We discussed it.
But it didn't compare, really.
What else did we see that was of any NFT bros?
There's a taco with a butt?
I wonder who did that.
That was ComicStripBlogger.
Of course, yeah.
Somehow.
It's like, we see a butt.
Anywhere there's a butt in the artwork, you don't even have to look.
It's CSB.
I did like, uh, uh, Bug and Cheese by, from Nico Symes, S-Y-M-E.
An artist that I'm most familiar with.
But I kind of like the Bug and Cheese piece and, and this person, I can't tell if it's a man or a woman.
Could be a they or a them.
Uh, there's a lot of nice stuff that's pretty good.
Yeah.
Oh, they also did one that you kind of like, which was the Gary.
Yeah, Sloth.
Hello, my name is Gary.
Yeah, the support Sloth.
With a mask.
Yeah, I like that.
I like the support Sloth.
It was a cute piece.
All the work is fine.
I mean, you have to understand for us, we're done with the show.
It's three and a half hours.
Of course, we've had a good 24, 48 of hurry up prep time.
So it all comes kind of to a crescendo.
You know, then hopefully at the end, we're all like laying back, smoking a cigarette, saying, oh, it was a good show.
And then we get to enjoy the artwork, which is fun.
It's like, no, I don't think ever have I had this much fun in post-production of a program.
It is a kick going over the art and then discussing it, especially when you get into an argument, we get two favorite pieces.
And we have to find ways, like the one you almost won, you beat me down on, and then it turned out they forgot to put Dvorak correct.
Right, right, right, right.
That was a classic.
Yeah, and you were reveling over that.
Oh, I gotcha.
NoAgendaArtGenerator.com.
If you're listening live, then you can just go ahead and refresh it.
People are already putting art up for today's show.
That's how it works.
These artists are phenomenal.
You can find their art over at NoAgendaShop.com on mugs, hats, t-shirts, hoodies, koozies, you name it.
No contractual relationship there.
They work it all out.
The artist gets a third, the shop gets a third, and then the shop donates once in a while.
We love it, and we have great products.
And the art is unparalleled, certainly for any other podcast I've ever seen, ever.
And that's how it works, value for value.
Time, talent, and treasure.
I should mention, Paul Couture, I'm still trying to get a file.
A whole dump of the database?
And he's so he's not, of course, like any other normal coder.
Instead of doing that, he's decided to redo the entire thing from scratch.
Headless Drupal again?
No, no, he stopped using Drupal some time ago.
The hot thing is React.
I'll tell you what it is.
Some coding base that he switched a long time ago out of Drupal was like a nightmare.
And he also mentioned that Drupal people are the worst case of the social justice warriors.
Yeah, that's what I thought was the problem.
So it's impossible to deal with them or anybody else.
So here it is.
I got his note.
Okay.
I got sidelined.
He hasn't given me what I'm looking for, but okay.
He's going to do this new thing.
Now he's got a timeline here.
Oh, he has a work plan.
In 2014, version one was built in Drupal 6.
Then he got sick of the SJWs.
Version two of the site launched in October 2014, built in Laravel.
Wow, what kind of 8-bit stuff is that?
I don't know.
Version 3 is coming soon and it's going to be Laravel 3.
He made a comment.
Headless Drupal is a dead end, but necessarily a stepping stone for the PHP developer community to adopt modern practices.
He made that as a comment.
He says there's Laravel.
Laravel is a framework for PHP.
Oh yeah, he's going to do from the ground up Laravel 9.
Oh, wow, he's going with 9?
I prefer 8.3.
I think that's much safer.
Yeah, you didn't even hear about it two seconds ago.
Well, this is why we have a troll room.
I know that it's a framework for PHP, and I say it as if I have intelligence and knowledge in the area.
Yeah, well, that's what people do.
They use those kinds of things.
Ground-up framework.
I'm telling you, Sir Paul Couture, I love you, man, but all the cool kids are using React.
Now I'm going to end up hearing a lecture about that, why it's no good.
Yeah, John at Dvorak.org.
Tell John why it's no good.
I never heard of Laravel either.
Our dude's name, Ben, and our dudette's name, Bernadette.
We've been left behind.
So that's, and as always, you know, that's something that Sir Paul just took upon himself to add value to the community, just like we have Sir Daniel with noagendameetups.com.
We have Sir Void Zero, Sir Mark over there in the north of Holland running infrastructure.
We got Sir Bemrose running the street.
I mean, it's like we have hundreds of people who've contributed throughout these.
By the way, I haven't heard from Chad in Colorado, so I'm going to send him a note.
Remember, we're going to talk about- Oh, he's okay.
Yeah, that's why I was a little worried.
I know he listens, so we're going to find out.
Another guy who, you know, people who send us information.
We got a donation note here, which is actually quite information filled.
So we'll get to that as we thank our executive and associate executive producers for episode 1469.
It's very simple.
If you get value out of the show, then you let us know that by sending us some digits.
You make the numbers valuable to you, important to you, whatever works for your Value proposition, whatever you have, that's all we care about, the value that you place on it.
And we kick it off with John from Key West, and I presume he's an instant knight, but all I have on his note is, hat off to no agenda slaves and their human resources.
Here's what's interesting about this note, and I don't know if he's on the knighting list, but he probably should be.
He better be, yeah.
Knight, you know, Sir John.
I'll check right now.
Eric added a new category to his rundown, what he sends for us to deal with.
We have to read certain things and do this and that to get... Yeah, we have a back off his notes.
And he's got this new category called Disappointing Note.
Line two, John.
I know, I went right away.
I'm like, oh, someone's bitching at us.
It's going to be horrible.
They're leaving us.
This is not a disappointing note, except for the fact that maybe it doesn't have the knight name, which maybe disappointed Eric.
Yeah.
This is the kind of note we want.
Yes!
That's exactly what I thought.
I said, well done!
Good balance for the show.
Well, he's gonna be Sir John and if he wants to change it, he can send it in and we'll take care of him.
Onward with Dame Meowdeson, who's in Baltimore Springs, Florida.
$7.18 and 33 cents.
In the morning, Dame Meowdeson here, a newly certified yoga instruction instructor.
Make a donation for my birthday Monday, July 18th.
She's on the list.
I never claimed to protect her when I was granted my baroness status.
So I would like to claim Central Florida.
Sure.
You got Disney World.
Enjoy it.
Good luck with that.
Good luck with that.
If the committee sees, yeah, we see fit.
Central Floridians.
I'm planning a meetup near the end of July.
Keep your ears open and check noagendashow.net.
Please keep up the great work.
I adore you both.
Karma, please.
Love and light.
P.S.
I keep forgetting the notes email alias.
Can you announce it again?
Oh, yeah.
Adam will.
He knows what it is.
Notes.
Notes at noagendashow.net.
It's three N's.
Notes at noagendashow.net.
N3.
I searched a few episode transcripts, but no such luck.
It should barely be listed somewhere that's easy to find, but it's not.
We'll put it in our mission statement.
You've got karma.
Up next, we have Nick Leary.
37169.
Interesting number from Columbus, Ohio.
Nick says, Ronimo here.
Rogue and no agenda mofax.
Sending some well-earned treasure back to you both.
Give me a dose of R2-D2 mechanical karma.
I'm fixing up my 97 Probe GT from high school.
I'm gonna need every bit of it.
Oh, please give yourselves a karma as well.
Love is lit.
I think he's on the prowl.
We have Nick is out.
He's trying to pick up chicks with his 97 Probe GT.
You've got... karma.
Right on.
Now, this is a note you're going to have to read because it blows out my spreadsheet.
It's so big.
Yeah.
And this is what I would call the disappointing note.
Did you read it?
You didn't think this was... I can't read it.
Oh, this is anything but disappointing.
Well, it might be a good note for the show, but it's not a good note for me reading it.
I'm sorry to hear that.
Okay.
You can read it.
Nathan Winder, or Winder, from Stilwell, Kansas, 333.69.
He's got the 69 for the episode.
Thank you very much.
Thank you for all you do to make the greatest podcast in the universe possible.
Of course, so good.
Yes, good.
Starting off well.
Your recent comments about noodle boy college kids having to grow up in real jobs sparked my favorite story from Google after having worked there for eight years.
Now this is the kind of story that the Daily Wire would headline with.
Google Insider talks about social justice warriors at Google.
No, no.
Yeah, I actually read this note when it was an email.
I didn't read it as a note, but yeah, it's quite funny.
I was begrudgingly recently promoted to engineer manager and our leaders decided it was time for a project-wide management culture building off-site.
Woo-hoo!
Bored out of my mind all day, we then had some practical theoretical exercises to practice our new management skills.
Anyone who's been to one of these knows exactly what this is talking about.
The off-site.
The off-site.
Oh, goodness.
Didn't we have off-sites at Pod Show?
That was a Bloom thing.
He loved off-sites.
He liked that and all hands.
All hands.
Corn ball stuff in Silicon Valley.
Tall corn ball.
A scrum.
Let's do a scrum, everybody.
My favorite hypothetical was this.
A software engineer identifying as a cat.
Demands a litter box to relieve themselves at their hypothetical tech company.
Standard responses all around.
Of course we should provide!
We could convert a meditation room or foosball area for them.
Blah blah blah.
I'm quiet.
Dying laughing on the inside.
Keeping my head down.
Avoiding eye contact.
Just want to get through it for beers at a happy hour.
But then the giant people ops, which apparently is Google speak for the HR lady.
The giant people ops.
I think we should keep that in there.
GPO.
So the giant people ops lady somehow locks onto me, decides to hound me to get my thoughts.
I try to defer and defer and defer, but the boss gives me the look to answer, so I reluctantly answer.
Well, give them the opportunity to succeed elsewhere.
Shock in the room.
Why?
The white wailed.
Fire the cat.
Hold on a second.
Anymore.
I gotta mark that one.
Why the white whale with blue hair inquires?
This is like a book.
I would buy this book.
I ask if it is legal to hire a cat for work.
It seems like animal abuse.
Confusion ensued, of course.
I finally feel the awkward silence.
Ask if the cat has a license, has a designated guardian, has had all their shots, and do we have those records, and so on and so on.
Get a reluctant no for an answer.
Seems like we have a stray animal need to call animal control.
The boss is shooting me death stares to pump the brakes.
But momentum can't be stopped now.
I suggest we survey the co-workers to make sure they aren't allergic or potentially pregnant to avoid toxoplasmosis.
Begin planning additional first aid and cleaning protocols as needed.
Buddies around me are biting their lips so hard, People Ops Beluga has turned that awful fat jaundicated white color to bright red like she had just shuffled back in record time from the nearest office snack bar a hundred feet away.
I finally get cut off after five minutes of bullshitting, so I sit back, bask in the glory of malicious compliance.
At happy hour, I dig it out of my- I dig it out of my boss this was currently happening with the software engineer at, you guessed it, Google.
Good news, they got them their precious litter box.
And yes, Google is sucking up absolutely all of your data of any kind and selling it to anyone they want, ad companies, government, and on and on.
Avoid any and all Google products, people.
At least the pay was great.
Now that's not a disappointing note.
I will hand you some karma.
No, it's not.
It's a good note.
You've got karma.
Well done, sir.
It's been better in the show, I think.
What's that?
It's a good note.
Very funny, and he's probably dead right about all of it.
And Google is just outrageous in terms of what they do.
Greg Hoy in Orinda, California comes up next in contrast with $333.33 and the contrast is his note is the following, take my money, no typewriter this time, executive producer named Ear Hopper.
That all balances out.
What's the name?
Earhopper for executives.
Oh, do we have to change that?
I think so, yeah.
All right, let me just make that change.
Earhopper.
While you're doing that, I'll go on with the next one.
Okay, good.
Sir, B and A, B and Astra, B and Astra in Nashville, Tennessee, 333.33.
33 episodes since my last donation, so it's time for another.
However, I must switcheroo it to my smoking hot wife, yet another switcheroo.
Another switcheroo, alright.
And this goes to Jessica.
Jessica.
And I request some karma for her, and just make it Jessica.
No, just Jessica.
And requests some karma for her as she begins her interior design business.
It's something she's been considering for quite a while and is now finally taking the plunge, despite the WEF saying that no one will own a home by 2030.
With all the money she's been spending on branding, web development, etc., I thought we should spend a little money on something that provides an immediate return on investment, and that's an executive producership.
Now you're talking.
And some karma from Gitmo Nation.
Love you, baby.
You're going to kick ass.
Klaus says seven and a half years to make hay while the sun shines.
Sir Benetstra.
Nashville, Tennessee.
We'll give her some goat.
You've got.
Mine as well.
Karma.
Uh, then we have Rajiv Voleti, would you say Voleti?
I'd say Voleti, but... Voleti, okay.
And, uh, no note!
Well, that's disappointing, so that means... It's in Bedford.
Uh, yes, and that's 333.
We love 333 for executive producers, so you get a double karma, a turbo version.
You've got Pharma.
Sir David French in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, $310.
ITM, my beloved bride, told me softening the T in words, e.g.
important, is a regional thing where we grew up in central New York.
Really?
I don't think so.
Who knew?
He continues.
You know, what's he gonna do?
This donation makes me a baronet.
Jingles, please.
Screw your freedom.
Toot of the head.
Fouchy wheeze.
Sir David French.
Screw your freedom.
Short and sweet.
We love it.
Laura Slagle?
We think we'd say Slagle?
Slago, Slago, 202.22, South Boston, Virginia, and this is... Wait, did I mess that up?
No, I got it right, I'm sorry.
Even my spreadsheet's going nuts.
202.22, I'm not quite sure what the significance is.
We like it, Associate Executive Producership, but it's a switcheroo.
It's a row of ducks with an egg.
Row of ducks with an egg.
Morgan.
This is for my son, Morgan.
I'm sorry, Morgan.
So with an O. Two Os.
Morgan.
His 27th trip around the sun on the 17th.
I'm also thanking him for de-douching me for Father's Day.
I'd love, love, oh, love, dad, jingles, biscuit on my birthday, and Obama, you might die.
Because nothing says happy birthday than you might die.
They always give me a biscuit on my birthday.
You might die.
Thanks, dad.
Nothing but love.
Is that in there?
No, I made that up.
So, our last donation, we don't have a lot today.
Here's the executive producer and associate executive producer, Sir CB, Knight of the Black Thumbnails and Harris Minnesota Nuts, $200.01.
Navy guys, and it's a switcheroo.
Nice.
He also needs Donald Loves Nazis, Don't Raff, and some yak karma.
This donation brings Alan Dix, who's gonna get the credit, of Spring Hill, Florida, $1,000.
He can show you his accounting.
He's good for it.
I'm bequeathing this final donation for his knighthood, and he's on the list, I believe.
So he also... So Alex Dix also gets the credit?
Yeah.
Okay.
All right.
Done.
Puts it up there.
Switcheroo.
Yeah, you got it.
Consider it done.
Uh, not because he's a great friend.
He's not getting the credit because he's a great friend.
Not because we've served together in the new U.S.
Navy Chief Petty, as U.S.
Navy Chief Petty Officers, but because Alan is a retired Intelligence Special Chief Petty Officer, and I've always wanted to own my own intelligence asset.
He is now my bitch!
Please knight him.
Sir Hey Chief Dicks, nice penis.
He did come up with that name and can change it at will if he wants to.
For the round table, please offer him Minnesota's best tater tot hot dish.
Thank you both for the best media deconstruction on the planet.
Sir CB, Knight of the Black Thumbnail, 73's KD0VIX.
Yes, 73's Keto5 Alpha Charlie Charlie.
Donald loves Nazis.
Donald loves Nazis.
CNN say that he's KKK and he shall seek hell with it.
Wow.
Don't laugh.
Why you are laughing?
Shut up.
You've got karma.
Yeah, that was short.
A very short segment today.
It was short, but we got two good notes.
The chief petty officers and then the Googler.
The Googler had to be my favorite.
That's a great, great note.
I mean, that's the thinking you gotta have.
It's a version of what you did about the they-them, only much better!
I wasn't rehearsed and it wasn't written down.
You didn't have material to work with.
You didn't have a cat.
The person identifying as a cat.
You don't have a cat at all.
Thank you to these executive and associate executive producers for episode 1469.
This is incredibly generous of you.
We're very appreciative.
And in return, of course, we give you the credit.
It's in every single show notes.
It's in all of the MP3s that we bake.
And you can use those credits as executive or associate executive producer, and you can flaunt it.
Put it on IMDb.
It's not automatic if you don't have an IMDB, which you probably don't, but you do now.
You can add that and go ahead and search around, see who else has done that on your LinkedIn.
Anywhere you think it might impress somebody because it is impressive, producing this program.
Then you will live forever in infamy.
If you'd like to learn how, go here.
Thank you again for your time, talent, and treasure for producing episode 1469.
Our formula is this.
We go out.
We hit people in the mouth.
Order!
Order!
Shut up, slave!
Shut up, slave!
I am going to violate rule number five.
Biden clips!
No.
Oh.
Tucker Carlson Biden clips, to be specific.
Oh, I already violated the rule, but you didn't know it.
What did you do?
I played, uh, the doctor, uh, who was saying that no- Oh, you picked- yeah, but you didn't have... Carlson's voice.
Exactly.
Okay, well, I got a series of clips about Carlson bitching and moaning about Biden's dementia.
Yes.
Good.
You saw that show, I'm sure.
You know, honestly, let me be honest.
I always watch the last five minutes of Jesse Watters.
If it's not one of his man on the street things where it shows how stupid America is, I'm usually asleep about five minutes into Tucker, and then during his monologue when he repeats everything the second time, so I may have missed it.
Ah, you get tuckered out.
Hey, there it is, ladies and gentlemen, $10 jokes.
And there we got a million of them.
So now we're talking, which is $10 million.
This is the one that got my attention and made you want to do this series at all, which is the Biden dementia pills clip.
Oh yes, this is huge!
This Joe Biden, anyone who knew Joe Biden had seen before.
He completely changed.
This was clearly cognitive decline.
This was dementia, obviously.
So we drew a conclusion that now sounds ridiculous, but it seemed logical at the time.
This guy can't be the Democratic nominee.
He can barely speak.
How did he manage to get through the campaign?
Well, it turned out, we learned later, his staff, supervised by Dr. Jill, his wife, was giving him pills before every public appearance, checking the time and at a certain hour, giving him a dose of something.
Now, that's not a guess.
We're not making that up.
We've spoken directly to someone who was there and saw it happen multiple times.
Now, before taking the medication, this person said, Biden was, quote, like a small child.
You could not communicate with him.
He changed completely because he was on drugs.
And he clearly still is on drugs.
No one's pushing to know what those drugs are.
We should know.
But the point is, Joe Biden's dementia was perfectly obvious to everyone around him more than three years ago.
A medical breakthrough!
Well, I have a couple problems with this.
Generally speaking, when you jack somebody up before, like, you know, that they're in a situation where they need to be high on something to go out to perform, it's usually a shot.
Because it gets into the bloodstream fast.
Pills take sometimes a half an hour.
Well, anyone who smokes pot, like yourself, and compares it to edibles.
You know, edibles take hours to get in.
Yeah, no good.
Maybe he, uh, goes sublingual.
This could be some sublingual thing.
I don't know.
But okay.
I thought that would, you'd think somebody would be talking about it besides Tucker, but why would they?
But then Tucker... I just want to say something about this pill.
Because if this, no matter what it is, but if it truly was a pill, and he seems very adamant about this, that it's a pill, would, I mean, there's millions of people who would love to bring their parent or grandparent to their senses out of dementia for the average, you know, 12 minutes or I think 20 minutes max for Joe.
I think we'd look at 20.
20 minutes just to say, okay, here's the deal, here's what's going on, here's why we're putting this straightjacket on, whatever it is.
I mean, I don't have that in my life.
I have friends who have parents with dementia and it's really horrible and they heard their story and they're like, are you mad?
Oh, I would love to.
They don't give a shit about Joe.
Can I have this pill?
That's how big this is, which I agree, it doesn't sound like it could be true, because this would be so important to so many people.
It would be a huge money maker.
I'm skeptical of the story.
But then he points out that, of course, this is also could be part of the get Joe, which we talk about on this show specifically, which is the idea that the Democrats are doing anything they can Even though they have pushback, like you played that earlier clip, they have pushback.
Oh, yeah, no, he's still great.
You know, he's going to be great and get reelected and all the rest.
A lot of people want to get rid of him.
So then he played a supercut, not a big one, but a short one of the dementia supercut, which and I want to preface this, all these are from MSNBC and CNN, no place else.
And they're all basically something completely different than what was played by the same networks like two years ago.
Everybody watching, everyone in the media, that would include Barack Obama's former advisors, is now in agreement that Joe Biden is senile and cannot govern the United States.
He tends to shuffle sometimes because he has, you know, mobility issues that the doctors have identified.
Sometimes his speeches tend to be a little listless or he seems to momentarily get confused or have trouble summoning names.
A third of them, the largest number, said age, that he was too old.
That is a problem that's not going to get better.
He's not going to get younger.
He's not going to get any younger.
I think there are a lot of people who have looked at him over these last years and seen he isn't what he used to be 10 years ago.
He knows he's 80 years old, 79, 80 years old.
He knows he's an old white guy in a party.
Ugh.
He's demographically changing and diverse, and the future is not going to be an old white guy.
When he does badly, when he stumbles, you get nervous.
And you wonder, is it just a stutter?
Is he tired?
Or is something else there?
Listen, if anybody says that Democrats aren't beginning to have these questions behind closed doors, that's not true.
People are.
Oh yeah.
Now, uh, by the way, the guy just said, old white guy is an old white guy.
That's so funny.
Now, later in the show, or later in this presentation... It's not funny.
It's sad, is what it is, John.
These things are not funny anymore.
Well, I'm... You're amused.
You're amused.
Okay, good.
I'm always amused.
So later in the show, and this is recorded and I'm not sure this was screwed up by Google or if it was a network screw up or whatever, but he went back and to prove his point, Tucker played another super cut of These same people and more.
It was a long supercut of all the people talking about, oh, no, Joe's fine.
He's great.
And they went, you know, this before, you know, during the election.
And and then somehow it got all jumbled with other clips of Tucker talking about something completely different and then this and that.
And then it drops into the middle of a commercial.
It's a complete disaster.
And I'm wondering if this was done on purpose.
Or if it was, you know, there was something in there that they agreed to never play again?
That's my guess.
Because, you know, that goes on.
And do you remember, was it still about Biden stuff?
Yeah, this is part of the same presentation about Biden's dementia.
And Tucker was bringing home the point, by playing another supercut, that the same people that you just heard talking about, oh, I don't know, they were all jacked up and here it goes.
And listen to this.
Well, which one is it?
I'm sorry.
It's under Carlson Epic Fail.
Okay.
Well, he just decided to bypass the primaries and go right to the main event and kind of consign everybody else to the kiddie table.
That is Joe Biden at his best.
That is someone who is authentic.
It's the reason he connects with people.
He is having fun.
This is not heavy lifting for Joe Biden.
Joe Biden never gave up on Joe Biden.
And it reminded me so much of 2008.
If we have some special entree into the secrets of the Democratic Party, we certainly don't.
We're hardly Democratic Party insiders, but because- Where Joe Biden was just woeful.
He needed to- Carterburn, who used his authority- That's right.
In South Carolina among black voters to- The party had just decided, and Barack Obama as well, that Joe Biden are just woeful.
I mean, you know, just 29%, I think, of Democrats.
Yeah, but I have a recording.
I'll go look at it.
I'll bet you I have a full recording.
Lots of dot coms.
Last chance to get my original MySlippers.
This is not a mic.
Now, I'm pretty sure that was your recording or something.
I don't think that this has been done to mess it up.
This recording was done off-site by Google.
Yeah, but I have a recording.
I'll go look at it.
I'll bet you I have a full recording.
Google may have done that, but I have Comcast.
Do you have a recording?
And you did it on Comcast?
Yeah.
OK, I want you to listen to it and see how it ends.
OK, I'll check.
But I would have known.
I would have heard about this.
But I think it's just inferior product from Google.
Or maybe Google is doing that for some reason.
That's pretty conspiratorial.
That's a stretch for you.
So you really feel like that must have happened.
Well, I felt that there was a really good supercut that was all botched.
Oh, you're mad.
OK, I got you.
Yeah, it worked.
Hey, screw you guys, Google.
So let's continue.
I want to continue this with the Biden and the Middle East report that comes out of NPR.
And there's a few items in here that are definitely, especially the third clip, that are something we need to discuss.
And this is Biden on Middle East NPR 1.
President Biden is on his way back to the United States after a four day trip to the Middle East.
It was his first time there as president.
He reaffirmed commitments to Israel and released more aid money for Palestinians.
And he attended a summit with Arab leaders who the U.S.
is hoping will keep oil supplies flowing as gas prices remain high.
This morning, he told them the U.S.
intends to remain a key player in a region where American rivals also seek influence.
We will not walk away.
And leave a vacuum to be filled by China, Russia or Iran.
We'll seek to build on this moment with active principle American leadership.
Dr. Jill, we need another pill.
Dr. Jill, we need another pill.
Same thing I noticed.
NPR was not doing this before and now they're playing some of Joe sounding like he's out of it.
Again, part of the scheme to get rid of him.
With no candidate to back him up, let's get rid of him.
Except Gavin Newsom.
Well, they got two years to come up with somebody.
Over two years, actually.
This is what I hate.
I don't mind doing it.
I love this show.
I love my job.
But the fact that I have to wait two years to see this thing come to a conclusion is bugging me.
Why, you want to quit tomorrow?
No, I need resolution, Joe.
Something's got to happen to Joe.
You want instant gratification?
Is that your problem?
You got the instant gratification bug?
Yes, like a like.
Like someone subscribing and following.
You want a checkmark.
Yes, I need some... Oh, it's because you never got the blue checkmark.
Oh, that's it.
Yes, okay.
Let's continue this little trick.
But the visit was overshadowed by the meeting with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who U.S.
intelligence agencies say approved the operation that killed journalist Jamal Khashoggi in 2018.
NPR's Fatma Tanis has been following events from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, and she's with us now.
Fatma, welcome.
Thank you for joining us.
Thank you for having me.
So let's start with the latest activity today.
That was Biden's speech to a meeting of nine Arab leaders, Gulf countries, along with Egypt and Jordan.
What stood out about Biden's message?
You know, the President painted a positive picture, saying the Middle East is relatively stable and also more united than it has been.
Some main points from his speech today, he said the U.S.
and Gulf countries will be investing in clean energy, water resources, and working to address the ripples of Russia's war in Ukraine on energy markets and food insecurity in the region.
He talked also about coordinating efforts on air defenses, freedom of navigation to counter threats from Iran, which was a big theme across his trip.
And finally, he also underlined the United States commitment to promoting human rights in the region.
Well, to that point, I mean, as we noted, there was a lot of attention and frankly, some outrage over Biden's meeting last night with a Saudi crown prince.
He's in fact a leader of the country.
Biden had called the country a pariah when he was running for president.
So would you talk a little bit more about that to kind of recap that for us?
Absolutely.
You know, all eyes were on his first interaction with the Crown Prince at the Al-Salam Royal Palace here in Jeddah.
We saw Biden greet Mohammed bin Salman with an outstretched fist bump.
This did not go over well with many in the U.S.
and it was widely criticized by human rights activists as being too warm and friendly.
Uh, so then at a late night press conference on Friday, the President defended his meeting and said that he actually brought up the issue of human rights and specifically the killing of Khashoggi at the top of his conversation with the Crown Prince.
He basically said that he, uh, he was not personally responsible for it.
I indicated that he probably was.
Amen.
Fist bump.
Mm-hmm.
I indicated he pro- So you go- I'm gonna up to you, uh- So Adam, did you kill that guy?
My pronouns are they-them.
And then you say, no.
No.
Well, I think you did.
No.
Is that what happened?
Yes, he indicated.
Doesn't mean he even said it.
He indicated.
He probably went with his head like, he raised an eyebrow.
Here's a part 3 of Shorty that's got some issue with, I have an issue with this clip.
Now human rights advocates say that the meeting will likely embolden the crown prince to be more repressive than he already is.
They say Biden didn't actually have to meet with him to get Saudi cooperation.
But you know, that's an open question.
As you mentioned, the Crown Prince is the de facto leader of the kingdom.
He has consolidated power and Biden certainly felt that he needs Saudi cooperation on oil to maintain the truce in Yemen and also to oppose Russia's war in Ukraine.
Oh, brother.
Now, was it to maintain the truce in Yemen?
Or maintain the troops in Yemen.
Oh, that's good.
I didn't hear, you know, let me, I said, where was that?
Power and Biden certainly felt that he needs Saudi cooperation on oil to maintain the truce in Yemen and also to truce oil to maintain the truce in Yemen.
The truth?
The truce?
What is she saying?
Cooperation... I know, I can't get it.
Well, let's listen again.
Let's listen again.
...needs Saudi cooperation on oil to maintain the truce in Yemen and all... She says truce?
What truce?
But didn't she say troops?
No, everyone... the trolls think she's saying truths.
Truce.
Truce.
People think truce.
Truce.
Truth.
Truce.
Truce.
What truce?
I don't know.
Did we talk about a truce in Yemen?
There's a truce.
Covfefe!
I have no idea.
Covfefe!
You need Saudi cooperation on oil to maintain the truce in Yemen and also to oppose Russia's war in Ukraine.
The truth!
The truth!
I don't know!
Oppose Russia's war?
How does it oppose the war?
What is she talking about this?
And this woman, this woman in our interview is going, I don't know, whatever you say.
You can't understand what she's saying.
She's talking about truth.
She's probably on scene.
She's there.
Asset.
Whatever.
No, I don't think so, but.
Hilarious.
Hilarious.
I can't figure out what she's talking about.
And what's it got to do with Russia?
Well, because, you know, Russia, well, of course, this is because Russia has caused ripples.
Ripples.
Ripples.
Ripples in the energy markets.
Now we need to ripple back at them with Saudi Arabia.
Okay, last clip.
Let's talk about this from the other perspective.
I mean, what's been the narrative?
What?
I don't know.
There's the way... I can't help it.
Now I'm just gidgety.
Let's talk about this from the other perspective.
I mean, what's been the narrative?
The Biden disease is spreading to NPR!
Let's talk about this from the other perspective.
I mean, what's been the narrative in the Saudi leadership and the media?
You know, the Saudis definitely projected the upper hand throughout the trip.
And it's not just because they were hosting the event, but because the President of the United States needed their help and came all the way to visit.
And so this has certainly been reflected throughout Biden's time here, which, by the way, was just short of 24 hours.
But the U.S.
Press Corps, for example, had very limited access compared to the Saudi press.
And so the optics were really dominated by the Saudis.
And in the Saudi press coverage, which tends to be more columnist oriented, the takeaway is now that the kingdom is too strategically important to ignore.
And so Saudi-U.S.
relations are back to normal and not getting a, quote, reorientation, as Biden had put it in an op-ed explaining why he was going.
John, what's really going on here?
I mean, this is clearly, clearly this is, this is some other reason for this.
It's obviously not about, I mean, Macron even told them, hey, you know, there's no, they cannot do more petroleum for you, Joe.
You go there.
So what is it about?
I don't know.
I'm with you on that.
I think the Saudis even told me, look, we're at 98%, we're pumping as much as we can.
What do you want us to do?
This has got to be something else.
Maybe he's just pleading, please.
Maybe it's got something to do with that Yemen thing this woman shoved in there in the middle of nowhere.
Okay, then that would relate directly to Iran, which, I mean, I don't know if you have a clip about it, but during his Middle East Trip, I did pick up a clip about Iran.
Where is my Iran clip here?
Okay, why don't you go to that, but before you do that, I do have one last clip.
Sure.
Which is the same clips that you just heard, only this is Democracy Now!' 's report.
On Biden in Palestine.
Of course!
It's the War and Peace Report.
This is before he went to Saudi Arabia.
We had to talk about Biden in Palestine because, as you know, people should know that the, and we've had this told to us by people that produce on Amy's show, Democracy Now!
War and Peace Report, that is sponsored by Qatar.
Cutter?
Cutter, yes.
Yeah, the money comes from Cutter, or Qatar.
Wait, so Amy, the journalist, her money comes from Qatar?
Yeah, so all she does is bad-mouth the Israelis and gives pro-Palestinian reports.
Are you telling me she's biased because of her financial backers?
That can't be.
President Biden has met with Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas in the Israeli-occupied West Bank.
Earlier today, Biden traveled from Israel to the Palestinian Authority's presidential compound in Bethlehem.
Along the way, his motorcade passed billboards and banners protesting U.S.
support for Israel's occupation, as well as the killing of Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akhla, who was shot dead by Israel's military last May.
Next to the Jenin refugee camp.
In a joint news conference with President Abbas, Biden claimed the U.S.
continues to support a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
He also defended the U.S.
response to the killing of Abu Akbar.
She was an American.
American citizen and a proud Palestinian, I hope that her legacy will inspire more young people to carry on her work of reporting the truth and telling stories that are too often overlooked.
The United States will continue to insist on a full and transparent accounting of her death And we'll continue to stand up for media freedom everywhere in the world.
Biden's remarks came after he rejected a request by Shireen Abouakle's family to meet with him during his visit to Israel.
Abouakle's niece, Lina Abouakle, wrote, quote, we would like Biden to do in Shireen's case what his and previous US administrations have failed to do when other American citizens were killed by Israel.
Hold the killers accountable, she said.
And there you have it.
I have my Iran clip about Biden's visit because this, you know, we do know that the war in Yemen is a proxy war between Saudi Arabia and Iran.
There is apparently a truce.
Okay.
Why no one told me that?
I'm in the same boat as you.
I have no idea.
They don't mention this on the TV.
They don't mention it on radio reports.
And this woman only said it in passing.
So at least we learned something.
But this is a problem.
We didn't know this.
Perhaps they don't want us to know.
Military-Industrial Complex needs more stuff.
Hey, here's CBS.
Iran, especially, has been a big focus of the visit.
Early Saturday, the White House warned it's now backing Vladimir Putin's war in Ukraine by providing armed drones.
It released a satellite image purportedly showing armed drones at an airfield in northern Iran on June 8th, and what U.S.
officials described as a Russian delegation transport on scene.
Iran does have a domestic production capability for drones.
And these are lethal drones.
We've seen them used in action against U.S.
troops.
I think this is Morel, actually, now that I'm hearing it.
No, no, that's Kirby.
That's Kirby.
Oh, that's Kirby.
Gosh, I've done this a couple times.
Kirby, say milio.
I know, but wow.
We've seen them used in action against U.S.
troops and U.S.
facilities in Iraq and Syria.
It's also an indication of the pressure that's being put on Mr. Putin's war machine.
That he himself now has to turn to a country like Iran to resupply his own loss of drones in the war.
The Biden trip began with a new agreement between the US and Israel to partner in stopping Iran's nuclear ambitions.
Even though Mr. Biden also wants to restart global negotiations with Iran over its nuclear program, something Israel strongly opposes.
Send him some more cash.
So, a couple of things about this.
I've been wanting to talk about this anyway.
What is the deal?
The Russians don't have their own drones?
They can't make a drone?
They're too dumb?
And they have to buy drones from Iran?
Who, as far as I know, they've been banned from getting any semiconductor products of any sort that can make a drone or can control one.
It's just that this story makes no sense to me.
Yeah, it's a setup for something.
There's something phony about these Iran drones.
I mean, they're gonna either, they're either, it's either a... Well, Israel needs to defend Ukraine, because in Ukraine the Russians are killing Americans, so Israel can bomb Iran.
That's, that's... It's something convoluted.
That's the only thing I can really see happening.
But yes, once again, we're not really being told the story.
It's obvious.
It's obvious that that's going on.
No, especially when you have Kirby up there.
He's like a phony if ever there was.
Stooge.
Stooge.
But yeah, so it makes no sense to me that... I mean, the Russians are like second to us in so far as high technology.
Armaments are concerned.
I mean, they have some of the best jets in the world.
They have missiles better than ours.
They have rocket engines that are better than ours in general.
We have to use their rocket engines for most of our stuff.
I mean, there's a lot of things.
And it's like now all of a sudden they're going to, of all places, Iran?
For drones?
NASA just confirmed a deal with, what is it, Roscoe Space, or whatever that outfit is called, for joint trips to the space, was it the International Space Station?
And they will be transporting the Russians, don't worry.
You're all good with us.
SpaceX?
No, I think it's NASA.
I don't think it's SpaceX.
But it was, NASA may, whoever does the actual tender, I don't know, but NASA made this agreement.
That doesn't really fit either.
Like, if we're really at war, if they're really, like, the NERG, as the NERG says, you know, they're killing Americans over there in Ukraine.
We shouldn't be doing anything.
Anyway, we... I know.
The whole thing is scammish.
We have something to celebrate, John.
I'm very happy, and something changed on the world stage.
Well, let me hit the jingle first.
Well, that's why I want the Millennial Minute.
The world is confusing.
You're entitled to the truth.
So here's the Millennial Minute.
Just for you.
Millennial Minute.
We love our millennials.
Yeah, yeah, you know... We love our millennials.
We need a, we need a jingle.
A Jeff Smith jingle?
We need a Jeff Smith jingle.
Jeff Smith, where are you?
So, I incorrectly thought that Denmark was still at the top of the list of global antidepressants per 1,000 people.
I'm here to announce that Denmark has lost its top leadership position.
Oh no.
Yep, they are now down to number five.
Number five, and only 85 people are on antidepressants per 1,000.
So what is that, 8% of the entire population?
8.5, yeah.
Who do you think is next?
Right above Denmark.
Another very... Denmark, as we know, is one of the happiest places on Earth.
Do you want to do a countdown from 4 to 1?
Yes, okay.
Number 4.
Sweden.
No!
I'm sorry, Sweden is actually number 6.
Number 6 with 70... I'll just do it like this.
7.9% of the population is drugged.
Holland.
No!
No, surprisingly, the Netherlands, very low.
They're like number 15, only 4.2%.
Okay, what is the answer?
Number 4 on our list with 8.6%.
Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for Canada!
No, I don't blame the Canadians in the case because they got that Trudeau guy they can't seem to get out of office.
And by the way, the Trudeau guy that is stuck in office, that is the reason a parliamentary democracy doesn't work.
Can you give a guess who is number three with 8.9%?
It is the winners from Down Under, Australia!
Ah, makes sense.
The number two happiest place on earth with 10.6 people.
Percent of all people on antidepressants is that hotbed of fun activity, Iceland!
Iceland!
Oh, that's interesting.
I think they may be number two with a bullet.
I'm not quite sure where they came up from.
I have to look at last year's standing.
And number one with 11% is the United States.
Ah yes, well good for us.
That's right.
We're really the happiest place on earth.
We really are.
It wasn't for the damn communists that are trying to ruin everything.
We got a note from one of our producers and I wanted to share this because I've been looking at the effects of SSRIs and antidepressants and really why no one discusses it because it seems to be kind of a part of all of our problems.
I had just a guess.
Especially the mass shootings, hello.
Go on.
This is from one of our producers.
He will remain anonymous.
And he says, you've been talking about Adderall, as Adam calls it, legal meth.
He says, unfortunately, I have a very bad story about Adderall and Vyvanse, which we know Vyvanse is the time release version of meth.
My girlfriend at the time, he's no longer his girlfriend, had been prescribed Adderall and Vyvanse, not at the same time, for about four years for ADD, attention deficit disorder.
She took it as prescribed for a while, and it worked great for her, helping her graduate college, which she had struggled with for six years before getting on the meds.
And all of a sudden, last summer, something changed, and she literally started going crazy.
I didn't know it was happening for a while.
I thought maybe she was developing schizophrenia or something.
She was paranoid about her phone being hacked, people constantly following her, and that all her friends and colleagues were collaborating on some elaborate plot against her.
She tore our apartment apart looking for bugs and cameras.
It was insane.
After months of this, I happened to be talking to a friend who knew someone who went through this very same thing, and he had been clinically diagnosed with Adderall-induced psychosis.
So my ex-girlfriend ended up going to a treatment center to get clean, which she probably wouldn't have done if she hadn't gotten arrested because she was addicted to this stuff.
And sure enough, that's what they told her too.
Adderall-induced psychosis.
When she got out, she told me that a lot of the people in the treatment center were meth addicts and they had the exact same paranoia.
Even after she got out and had been clean for a month, she's still having delusions, and it's not been easy.
Luckily, she recently started on some antipsychotics or something that seems to be helping out.
So yeah, this stuff is dangerous and scary.
I had never heard of Adderall-induced psychosis.
Why would you?
There's not gonna talk about something like that.
By the way, the anti-psychotics ought to do something else.
Probably.
This is one of the most prescribed.
I mean, kids use this as currency in colleges.
I mean, the Adderall is flowing, free-flowing, Vyvanse, all this stuff.
This kind of psychosis, that could set anybody off at any point.
Let's just ignore that.
And of course, what it's used for the best is what Dr. Jill Biden told us.
Reminder, she is not a real medical doctor.
She's a teacher.
You turn down the news on the TV telling you about people who want to stop you from doing your job and you put your shoulders back and you just go out and focus on your students.
She's talking to teachers.
Yes, Dr. Jill.
There is so much weight on all of you, but you carry it.
Our schools are where policies become people.
Yeah!
There it is!
Oh, that's pretty profound.
That's a great catch.
Our schools are where policies become people.
That's right.
You drug them up, by the way.
Or turn them into tacos.
I got this great report, a medical report.
The effects of MDMA activation, if you take MDMA, if it's pure MDMA, this is a clinical trial, it literally shuts off your amygdala temporarily.
No wonder kids love it.
Can you imagine?
Oh, there's plenty of people that love it.
But it's the Molly, it's the party drug, ecstasy, it's where you go to let loose.
Put them on this all the time!
Wasn't MDMA developed for PTSD in soldiers?
I don't know what it was developed for.
I thought there was something like that.
I never used it, never tried it.
I had no interest because of the people that I know that were using it or use it constantly or at least not constantly.
They're losers.
They're losers, right?
No, they were all pretty successful, actually.
Oh, okay.
But they always had this kind of, you know, they would use it on the weekends as a... and they would go on... See, that's the reason why I wouldn't use it.
If they go, I don't want it.
No, because I remember there was this lawyer woman that used to be on Silicon Spin all the time until they...
How did you know?
and she, I think she works for Google now, and she would, you know, she'd come, we were at some event, there was something we were doing at the W, and then she comes in and I looked at her and I said, you're on E or whatever it reference was at the time.
And, uh.
How did you know?
I said, you could tell by looking at her.
It was this, and this, every time I've seen anyone that's using this stuff, they have this shitting grin.
It's like, that noise you make all the time, that kind of silly sound that you make.
It's like that, that is epitomized in their appearance.
Kind of like a, kind of a thing.
And I say, yeah, she admits to it.
And so, you know, And I, that's what I, I saw this, this can't be healthy.
Did you get her number?
She was on the show all the time.
I didn't need her number.
I'm just kidding.
Seems like she'd be a good target.
Hey, let me give you a ride home.
She was with some other, she was with one of her boyfriends and he was wasted, too.
Wasted, nice!
They like to touch each other.
You rub their skin, they're touching each other.
They're caressing a little more than normal people do under any circumstances.
Well, so then there's another guy was a famous columnist who I won't use his name, but he was at the San Francisco Examiner and he was a big advocate of using this stuff.
And every time I see him, he looked like he was half dead because he'd use it constantly.
Every weekend he'd be partying with this MDMA.
And he's like, are you okay?
Yeah, no, good.
I'm good.
And then he died over time.
Yeah, not good.
Goodness, you've had a lot more experience with people on E than I have.
I mean, nobody.
I don't think I've ever been around it.
No, it was a big deal out here.
I know it's a big deal.
I know friends who claim to do it and they love it.
But I get no time for it, honestly.
And that was the same thing with DMT.
Like, I love the 20 minutes.
Great.
I'm tripping.
I see pixies.
Woo!
Shit's alive.
I love it.
And then for 48 hours... You should slow down.
Slow down, Adam.
And for 48 hours, exactly.
I'm dead tired.
My eyes are droopy.
It's not about the high.
This MDMA must really have a hard effect on you.
But I didn't know about the amygdala thing, but it makes some sense because they have this very bright outlook.
They're not bad people to be around.
If somebody's on E, they're fine to be around.
It's not like you don't know what the hell's going to happen if somebody's on crack or even acid.
They can jump out the window.
Who the hell knows what's going to happen?
But this is pretty, you know, okay.
Yeah, but this is my point.
And I think MDMA Is this something you can make from natural elements, or is it all synthesized?
It must be synthesized.
I haven't even looked into the chemistry.
Well, here's what's going to happen.
We'll have a lot of people telling me, I'm wrong!
You don't know what you're talking about!
Correct.
I don't.
I don't know anything about it.
But I think that if I had to choose, I would rather put my kid on MDMA.
It seems like that, you know, that's something you would chill your kid out with and, you know, be love and teacher or stroke my skin.
Instead of the Adderall with possible Adderall-induced psychosis, I mean, they really don't care about our children.
They're giving them the wrong meds.
No, they can't open up.
This is ridiculous.
And the fact that we're number one on the SSRI thing or whatever it is, it's ridiculous.
I'm going to show my support by donating to No Agenda.
Imagine all the people who could do that.
Oh yeah, that'd be fun.
Boom!
Finger number one!
Party time.
Raymond Haas is top of the list for the people who helped us do this show.
He's in McKinney, Texas, and he came in with $111.11.
Thanks.
Thank you, brother.
Good for him.
Benjamin Ditzler in Kennesaw, Georgia.
$100.69.
I need an emergency last second de-douching for the Atlanta meetup tonight. .
You've been de-douched.
Okay, if it's an emergency, I'm not going to wait for a second.
You've never heard of a de-douching emergency?
If it's an emergency, don't even question it.
We do first ask questions later.
Shawna Benson in Smithville, Texas.
$100.
She has a note that's worth reading.
Why don't you read it?
She says, Donation!
She took it quite literally.
Listen, put only donation in the subject line.
Okay, I'll put it everywhere just to make sure.
Thank you, Shauna.
Thank you.
Good woman.
Texas girl.
Yeah, of course.
Lucas Williams in Roswell, New Mexico.
Roswell!
A hundred dollars.
Hey, man!
So, Sir Kevin McLaughlin's up next to go Luna, lover of America and boobs.
Boobs!
Locust, North Carolina.
8008.
Christopher Hubbard in Denver, Colorado. 8008.
May your boobs be safe, or stay safe, as we say.
Stay safe, yes.
Francisco Barbosa in Champlin, Minnesota, nuts.
And he says 8008.
Now, we don't typically read these notes, but sometimes it's just something of interest.
And he says, I heard Curry on the Glenn Beck show and looked for the podcast.
See, it works, John.
I bring audience.
You do.
I listened here and there for a while and for a couple of months I have done it consistently.
Having Dvorak on the show is definitely a bonus!
You're a bonus!
He was my favorite tech guy columnist.
Aww.
It's about your bonus.
I'm a boner.
Sir Rick, Arlington, Washington, 6996.
Betty Solero, Dame Boolestad, I guess, in Seattle, 6666.
Got a birthday coming up for somebody.
Also, birthday for somebody, Patrick Viviere.
For Kendra.
Aw, wait, it's for Kendra from her four favorite human resources.
Oh, I'm sorry about the fifth one.
That one's no good.
D-douched for her.
You've been D-douched.
Manchester, New Hampshire.
And that was Manchester, New Hampshire, 61-33.
Gregory Kierdyk in Padova, Italy.
Hey, Padova.
Padova.
55-56, we need more Italian listeners.
Rutcher, Richard... Before the country collapses.
Richard, that's the third biggest economy in the EU.
I thought it was number two, right behind Germany.
I thought it was behind Germany and France.
With Draghi resigning, that's bad.
I don't know what's going to happen there.
They've always got turmoil.
Richard Futter in London, UK.
Yeah, but they have the European Monetary Unit, they have the Euro, so if they screw up, they screw it up for everybody.
Yes, this is a fact.
He's in London, Richard.
Hugo Salgado in Chicago, Illinois.
Geez, we don't read his note.
Sir, Luke Rayner, the Earl of London and the South East, another Londoner, coming in for 5432.
They must have had a meetup or something recently.
Christopher Pike in Garrard, Kansas, 51.
The following people, again, this is a slow day.
I should mention to everybody, this is a very slow day, but we have the $50 donors.
Name and location, starting with Sir Chris Lewinsky in Sherwood Park, Alberta.
Jamie Hilliard in Noonan, Georgia.
Mary Broon in McKinleyville, California.
I have no idea where that is.
Nathan Cochran in Franklin.

Philip Ballou in Louisville, Kentucky.
Josh Adair floating around.
He's an APO box.
James Edmondson, South Plainfield, New Jersey.
John Camp in Antlers, Oklahoma.
One of my favorite names of the city.
Stephen Shoemake in Xenia, Ohio, 50.
And last of the last two is Sir Jerry Wingenroth there in Saugus, California, and Daniel Galloway, Sir Spud the Mighty in Marietta, Georgia, for 50 bucks.
And he is concerned about this note getting through, and he was making the knighthood.
And there's a note here.
We have to read it because it's a knighting, and that's up to you, Adam.
I became a knight back on episode 1121, making a large enough donation to be an executive producer.
I'm doing the same here.
My regular $50 a month contribution has been adding up, and this check should afford me both my second executive producer credit.
Uh, okay.
But it doesn't come that way.
They came in as $50.
Right.
Okay, so I'm not sure what that's about, but I'd also make me a baron.
Okay, that seems correct.
I am assuming an unquestioned claim to the Villa Straylight, and I appoint John Fletcher as my sheriff, as he wouldn't shoot anyone who didn't need it, and Carolyn Blaney my magistrate, because she would be fair to my denizens.
No jingles, no karma.
Soon to be barren, spud the mighty.
You've built a stray light.
Well, we have you on the list, and I'd say that's happening momentarily.
Thank you to these producers.
Thanks to everyone under $50 for reasons of anonymity.
I see at least two there.
And of course, we have people sustaining the show.
On days like today, you're sustaining donation, which is one of the subscriptions that we have.
Those really do help.
If you'd like to learn more, go here.
We do have, if I'm not mistaken, a couple of make-goods.
Jonathan Walker, yes, he donated $333.33 last time, and I believe that he sent it to the wrong email address.
Notes?
Yeah, he sent it to a bunch of fictitious email addresses.
Notes at noagendashow.net.
It's three N's.
I humbly make the following request.
I request the title Sir Quigley of the Kangtankerous.
That's been done.
I request Bullet Rye and Barbacoa at the roundtable.
What's Barbacoa?
Barbacoa is...
You always have an answer.
I love that.
I think it's goat.
I know what that is.
I think it's, I think it's goat maybe.
I'm not, I don't have, you don't see it much.
You see barbacoa mostly at taco stands and it's a taco meat in Texas.
You could have just said taco meat.
Taco meat.
I think it's goat.
I think it's supposed to be goat.
He says, request all nights, dames and douchebags in the Houston area join me at the new monthly meetup every third Thursday at the Rodeo Goat in downtown H-Town.
Much fun to be had by all.
Yeah, there's a goat again.
Goat.
Yep, there's always a goat in the mix.
And then James Jackson, this is also from the previous episode.
In the morning gents, my father-in-law has been battling esophageal cancer for a few months now and he gets a cancer scan tomorrow, so unfortunately we missed that because we didn't get the note.
We need some no agenda prayers and good karma vibes from the community.
Bob is an amazing father, grandfather, hunter, badass, son of a bitch.
I'll bet he is.
Nicest person I've ever met with the kindest blue eyes.
When you look into his eyes, it's like hearing the Beatles for the first time.
Hence why I married his daughter!
And he'd like some F-cancer, understandably.
So we'll do that along with some jobs, cancer, and we'll get at it.
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
Let's vote for jobs!
You suck.
No, no, you stop me!
Do it!
with Ben Chippewa.
Ah, you've done it again.
Never mind.
I hate you.
No, no, you stop me.
Do it.
What?
Barbacoa is typically made out of chocolate.
It's about the taco meat, too!
You are the worst, the worst in the universe!
Just kidding.
You don't want to know the whole story.
No, no, no, no!
I don't want to know about your taco meat.
Go away from me.
No, no, I'm gonna do the birthdays.
Just go away with your taco meat.
Laura Slagle, happy birthday to her son Morgan, 27 today.
Dame Miaudison celebrates tomorrow.
Dame Bullysteed, happy birthday to Aaron Sinclair on the 19th.
Sir Kurt, happy birthday to Suzanne.
And Patrick Vivier says happy birthday to Kendra Vivier.
And we say happy birthday to all of you from the entire back office and staff and management at No Agenda Show.
And on behalf of the Taco Maids!
Title changes.
Turn and face display.
Night changes.
Don't want to be a douchebag.
We got Dame Meowdison who stepped up with her additional $1,000 to bring her to the title of Baroness of Central Florida.
Sir Kurt of the Frozen North becomes Sir Kurt Baron of the Frozen North.
There you go, a barony for him.
And Sir Spud the Mighty becomes Baron of the Villa Straylight.
And we thank these barons and baroness for their kind support of the No Agenda Show.
All right, now I'm ready to listen about the taco meat.
Come on, hit me.
You walked away.
I closed the page.
You closed the book on the taco meat.
Oh no.
Just for people to know, a couple of things you should know if you buy these street tacos.
Ah, street tacos.
I always thought barbacoa was just goat, but it turns out it's made from the tougher cuts of any meat and requires long, slow cooking.
That's according to Google, though.
And it could be beef.
In Mexico, it's usually beef, goat, lamb, or mutton.
But I should mention this little detail, burrilla, which is the hot taco meat.
Oh, they got burrilla!
So that's the hot, that's what you want to get on your current tacos if you're trendy.
Really should be goat.
Really?
And I got that from Patty Hienich on her show.
You're scaring our pet goat.
It should be goat.
Beria should be goat tacos.
You always ask your vendor if it's goat or beef.
There you go.
If it's not goat, it's not genuine.
There you go, everybody.
On behalf of the No Agenda Show, enjoy your goat taco.
It's official.
It's how you should love it.
Give me that blade you just slaughtered the goat with.
You got something?
Oh, it's blood all over it.
Ah, Suzanne, Jonathan Walker, Alan Dix, and John pop up here on the podium.
All four of you have reached the status of Knight or Dame of the No Agenda Roundtable.
Thank you very much for your support, and I'm very proud to pronounce the Kate V as Dame Suzanne of the Frozen North.
Sir Quigley the Cantankerous, Sir Hey Chief Dix, nice penis, and Sir John, Yes, gentlemen and lady, for you we have hookers and blow, rent boys and chardonnay, along with that Minnesota's best tater tot hot dish, bullet rye and barbacoa, the goat variety, and of course we've got bong hits and bourbon, geishas and sake, vodka and vanilla, sparkling cider and escorts, ginger ale and gerbils, and oh hell yeah, mutton and mead, breaking the goat.
Mantra mutton and meat here for you.
And please go to noagendanation.com slash rings That's where you'll be able to give us your information We can send it off to your ring size and you don't just get the signet ring which you can use.

Oops, hello Janet.
Don't, what are you doing there?
Uh, how did that happen?
Uh, where's my, uh, my meetup?
I got, I went straight to Janet.
Aren't we supposed to do ISOs?
No, no, we do, the first thing we do is do the meetups, but I haven't, the meetup jingle.
Oh, I see what you're doing.
You're still on the meetups.
Yeah, I haven't even done the meetups yet.
You got me all discombobulated with the taco shit.
That's what happens.
Let's see.
Fresno meetup report.
This is from Sir Robertson of Two Sticks, K6WJR73s.
He says the meet-up in Fresno at the Barrel House Brewing Company was a success.
Kelly arrived and was the sole participant, but no matter, we had a great time talking about everything NOAA gender-related and more, and that is true.
As long as there's two people, you've got a meet-up.
In the morning from the Berlin ITM slaves, we had five of us here this evening, and only three of us have ever heard the podcast.
So in the morning from us, Hi Adam, hi John.
This is Tom, Dutchie in Berlin.
What do you say to yourself with your head through the helmet?
Yeah, I'm Picasso.
I'm Putin for president.
Thank you guys.
It's all here, organized.
And, uh, hopefully we hit a couple people in the mouth and, uh, did our duty.
Yeah.
Grüße aus Deutschland.
Grüße!
We invite all of the Munich folks to come up to Berlin.
Uh, or is the one from Estonia also welcome in Berlin the next time we meet?
All right.
In the morning to you.
And next time, don't worry about the background noise.
Uh, let me do the filtering.
Hey man, I filtered all the back noise for you.
Yes.
You know, it's not like you're talking through a very tiny butthole.
Very tiny.
It is not, it's non-trivial.
No, and I appreciate it, but just leave it to the pros.
I'll take care of you.
Here's what's coming up.
Wednesday we have a meetup.
I guess, is there nothing today?
I'd expect there'd be one today.
July 20th, Columbus, Ohio, 5 o'clock at the Figlio Wood-Fired Pizza, Columbus, Ohio, on Thursday, the next show day.
Love, Free or Die, 4 o'clock Central, Rodeo Goat in Houston, Texas.
There it is, the goat once again.

Oh man, you're popular up there in Canada.
They're like a whole meet-up in your honor.
Eh?
Eh?
And finishing on July 21st, Thursday, Charlotte's Thirsty Third Thursday of the month, 7 o'clock Eastern, Ed's Tavern, Charlotte, North Carolina.
Go enjoy any of those.
There's a lot more all over the United States, Canada, the Netherlands, Australia, even Idaho.
I mean, everywhere you can imagine, there's going to be a meetup.
If you'd like to learn more, go to noagendameetups.com.
Look at the calendar.
You can sort through it.
If you can't find something that's near you, start one.
You'll enjoy it.
It's a party!
Sometimes you want to go hang out with all the nights and days.
You want to be where you won't be, triggered or held lame.
You want to be where everybody feels the same.
Got it.
All right, now we're at ISOs, unless you have something important about taco meat.
No, I'm done with my taco spiel.
It's the one time.
It's a radio guy thing, ladies and gentlemen.
All right, do you have ISOs to share with us?
I got one only.
Oh boy, all right, okay.
That's because I figured I couldn't get better than this.
End of show, you hear the following, here it goes.
Sure, yeah.
I think I can beat you.
Sure, yeah.
I think I can beat you.
You think you can beat me?
Sure, yeah.
Yeah, sure, yeah.
I just love Biden's creepy laugh.
How about this?
Nobody will be safe if not everybody is vaccinated.
No, I didn't think you'd like that one either.
It's too long.
It's cute though.
I think this is the one.
I need breast milk!
I think that's the one.
See?
When you get a laugh, it's a winner.
Yeah, that's a good one.
Now, I want everyone to notice how I did that.
I expertly softened you up.
Now, I know how it works.
Now, they all know how it works.
They're not fools.
So let's try this, though.
Try the breast milk thing, and sure, yeah.
Oh, you just want to weasel into my action.
No!
No, no, no.
Give it a shot.
I'll give it a shot, but... I need breast milk!
Sure, yeah.
No, it doesn't work.
Oh, man, it nails it.
He says it... No!
I'll consider it.
I have one last clip.
Is it your one last clip?
Yeah, let me just see because I have a lot of stuff left over.
Let me see what my one last clip will be.
Death and destruction of the cattle.
We haven't talked at all about it.
No, go ahead.
Hit me with your last clip and I'll see what it is.
Okay, now the discussion about the 10-year-old rape victim.
Oh, yes.
We have a perp.
We have someone who confessed?
Yeah, they got the guy and the rest of it.
And then the woman, the doctor, is reported as being investigated for, but they never say what for, but she seems to be investigated for a false police report.
The whole situation may be sketchy.
The whole situation may be sketchy.
Let's listen.
And where would you get the information?
There's a little kicker in here you haven't heard anyplace else.
It's on Democracy Now!, it's Amy, and here we go.
Meanwhile in Indiana, the doctor who recently performed an abortion on a 10-year-old rape survivor is now under investigation.
Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita announced the probe against Dr. Caitlin Bernard in an interview with Fox News' Jesse Watters Wednesday night.
We're gathering the information, we're gathering the evidence as we speak, and we're going to fight this to the end, including looking at our licensure.
Jesse Waters' primetime was among the shows on Fox News casting doubt on the 10-year-old child's rape story.
In response to the investigation, Dr. Caitlin Bernard tweeted, quote, my heart breaks for all survivors of sexual assault and abuse.
I am so sad that our country is failing them when they need us most.
Doctors must be able to give people the medical care they need when and where they need it, she said.
Abortion is still legal in Indiana up to 22 weeks into a pregnancy.
The abortion performed on the 10-year-old girl was actually a medication abortion.
She took several pills.
Medication abortion!
Oh, she had plan B. This whole thing reeks of being a scam.
Well, this is their out.
Medical abortion.
Oh my goodness.
There's limits.
You know, I'm not a doctor, you're not a doctor, but you're right.
This whole thing has scam written over it.
God bless this girl if it's real, because this is so disgusting.
These eugenicists, that's what they are.
They are, they just want less people and they'll go over anybody's... Yeah, they're just ghouls.
That's a downer to leave on, so let's leave on something less downer-ish.
Uh, here we go.
Did you know that it is now possible to equip your BMW with additional features and functions over the air?
Here is an example.
The BMW High Beam Assistant.
It switches to high beam automatically.
Press the button, and you will see that you can easily upgrade your BMW.
At the connected drive store, you are able This is it.
Hold on.
Within five minutes, your BMW will be upgraded.
The high beam assistant is just one of many features that you can upgrade your BMW with.
And there are more to come.
This is a scam that goes back to the 50s.
This is, IBM used to pull this stunt.
They did it with this, the first example that I know of is what, something called a line printer.
They used to sell with their big machines.
And the line printer would print at some speed.
It was whatever it was.
It was like 80 characters a second or 20.
And then they would say, oh, you want to buy the upgrade?
You want to buy an upgraded printer?
And they say, yeah, we'll pay another 10 grand for this upgraded new printer.
You have to lease it, by the way.
It's a lease deal.
And all they did, according to my friends at work at IBM, is they'd go in there and change the belt of the old printer.
And now it prints twice as fast.
Great upgrade.
Thank you.
I would say that Elon Musk probably upped the ante there.
Uh, you know, they basically give you the full-blown fast car, but they detune it.
And if you want the faster car... It's all software.
Yeah, it's all software.
They also, the heated seats in the BMW is also an add-on, $18 a month for heated seats.
Ackers, where are you?
This is vehicles as a service, man.
It's over.
It's disgusting.
It's disgusting.
You said my little comment about ghoul was bad.
This disgusts me.
And you know what?
Your electric vehicle that you have, trust me, it's gonna function just like your iPhone 6 in a couple of years.
You know, where the battery just runs down to a piece of crap, and you have to upgrade!
You have to get the new one!
Oh yeah.
Oh yeah, that's gonna be great.
And we'll be there to report on it, because we got nothing better to do and no money to leave.
Love my job!
Remember us at Dvorak.org slash NA.
Thank you very much for being here today.
We return on Thursday with another episode of The Best Podcast in the Universe.

We'll be right back.
Oh, my old two-body at all.
The government is taking full control.
Pouchy got COVID like everyone you know did.
Double jab boosted and took back slow.
They still got sick like Donald and Joe did.
Pouchy got COVID.
Pouchy got COVID.
Yeah, I got my boosted.
He said, hey.
My favorite big booty Latina.
She wants to kill babies.
She's so beautiful.
Look at that big ass.
You look very sexy.
That means threatening, aggressive behavior.
Look at that booty on ARC.
It is dangerous.
That's my favorite big booty Latina.
You look very sexy.
He said, hey, who is it?
You look very beautiful in that dress.
Look at that big, juicy booty.
Massive weapon.
I love you, AOC.
You're my favorite.
Look at that big ass.
My favorite big booty Latina.
That's institutionalized.
You look very sexy.
Riddle me that.
You look very beautiful in that dress.
She said, hey.
All the bunch of racist, sexist stuff.
And we offer hope to the American people who treasure our freedoms and who are overwhelmingly with us in our mission to defend them.
What do Republicans have in store next?
You can't travel to buy a book?
You can't travel to see a concert or a play?
Okay, good questions.

You need to get to go?

I'm disgusted by this.
I need breast milk!
