This is your award-winning Kimbo Nation Media Assassination, Episode 1575.
This is No Agenda.
Fanning bug-eating for over a decade.
And broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas snow country here in Femur Engine No. 6.
In the morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry.
And from northern Silicon Valley where we're all congratulating the new sumo champ.
Finally from July, I'm John C. Dvorak.
It's Crackpot and Buzzkill!
In the morning!
Okay?
We waited two minutes for you to set up the opening and that was it?
No, I didn't.
We got the real, the other opening.
Forget it.
Who knows this?
By the way, that's the show.
We were hearing the show, the actual show.
I know, but you know, it's like... You didn't tell them what we did before the show.
It kind of gives the people who are listening an idea that, you know, you should tune in live to the show because it's cool.
There's extra bonus stuff happening.
Bonus!
Yes, there is.
A lot of material at the beginning of the show.
It's true.
We talked about the bonus clip, which we both got, and you wanted to say something about the bonus clip, because we both got the bonus clip.
We got, both of us have a bonus clip that we both got, and we both positioned it exactly the same spot in the show.
Yes, which will be a donation segment bonus clip, just saying.
Great.
So there's reasons to listen to the donation segment.
Besides listening for your own donation, there's fun stuff in there.
I have a bonus clip which I'd like to start with.
Okay.
From the anonymous controller, you know, the air traffic controller.
Oh yes, this is always good stuff.
Yes, he has two boys, he and his wife have two boys, nine and eleven year old, and the kids like to walk around the house and pretend to do intros to the show.
He says, it only gets awkward when they talk about de-douching someone in front of the other homeschooled kids whose parents may actually still be douchebags.
But every Thursday and Sunday, my wife or I will say to them, hey guys, guess what day it is!
Only for them to give us an intro to the show.
I figured we should listen to today's intro because these are podcasters in spay.
It's Sunday, July 23rd, 2023.
This is your award-winning Gitmo Nation Media Assassination Episode 1575.
This is No Agenda.
Coming to you live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA Region No.
6.
In the morning, everybody.
I'm Adam Curry.
And from Northern Silicon Valley where we are all wondering where the heck Crack is the evidence of the Canadian wildfires.
I'm John C. Dvorak.
It's Crackpot and Buzzkill.
In the morning!
This show... Child abuse.
This show, we have nothing to worry about.
When we're gone, there are... Yeah, we'll just have those two kids do the show.
It'll be perfect.
Yeah, sounds... they got the timing down.
It'll be fantastic.
I love them.
I figured I'd start off with some deconstruction.
Some fun deconstruction, because, man, the climate change stuff is just off the hook.
Tonight, the dangerous heat wave spreading across Europe as extreme temperatures fuel wildfires in Greece.
We're just outside Athens, where it's been hovering around 110 degrees.
They are still very much in this fight, not only from the air, but also on the ground.
This fire popping up just a short time ago along this road leading to villages here.
We meet Maria Vallobani, hurrying to make sure her grandmother was okay.
You're obviously worried about them.
You were worried about them.
Of course.
They are my relatives and friends here.
Her grandmother, like so many others here, lost her home, but is unhurt.
Atmospheric conditions trapping multiple heat domes across the center of the Earth, sending temperatures soaring here in Southern Europe.
And it's becoming a deadly trend.
Scientists estimate more than 61,000 deaths on the continent last summer could have been heat-related.
Highs now reaching 114 in Spain.
In Italy, Sicily, hitting 115 degrees in recent days.
Usually bustling streets of Sardinia, mostly empty.
So this is your typical M5M conflagration of a hot summer.
And then, oh, the fires could have been heat-related!
There are fires in Greece right now.
It happens.
It's very dry.
There's fires in Texas.
There's fires everywhere.
But oh no, it could be heat-related.
That was ABC.
Let's listen to what NBC has to say.
Tonight, the Greek countryside is scorched earth.
A dystopian vision of a future ravaged by climate change.
In this village west of Athens, a sea of charred black and a chemical factory burnt to a crisp.
This is all that's left of this home outside of Athens after a fire.
This is your dystopian future.
Average this village two days ago residents here now picking up the pieces of their lives This resident lost six dogs several chickens and a goat when the flames devoured his family home How quickly did this house go up in flames?
In ten minutes Were you scared for your life here?
Yes.
It's not over.
Greek authorities say 52 new fires erupted today as firefighters play whack-a-mole.
Almost as soon as a fire is contained, the heat and winds pick up and the old fires are reignited.
We have been watching for the last hour as firefighting helicopters like this one have been dumping water on this hot spot here in the outskirts of Athens.
While Europe sizzles under some of the hottest temperatures ever recorded, the U.S.
also grappling with triple-digit temps.
A staggering 86 million Americans across the South and West under heat alerts tonight.
Dramatic video in Texas shows the moment a father busted his windshield with a tire iron after his baby was accidentally locked in the vehicle.
As the city of Miami... What is that report?
That has nothing to do with climate change!
Oh, my baby's locked in the car.
Well, that's dangerous.
You're an idiot.
That's the South and West under heat alerts tonight.
Dramatic video in Texas shows the moment a father busted his windshield with a tire iron after his baby was accidentally locked in the vehicle.
As the city of Miami bakes amid a 41-day streak of 100-plus degree heat index.
Tonight, millions of Americans flocking to Greece and Italy to escape the heat, only to find hot seas and air... Wait a minute, who escapes to Italy?
Millions of millions, mind you, millions of Americans going to Italy to escape the heat?
The city of Miami bakes amid a 41-day streak of 100-plus degree heat index.
Tonight, millions of Americans flocking to Greece and Italy to escape the heat.
What?
This is complete bullcrap!
Millions of Americans don't escape to Greece and Italy to escape the heat?
That's ridiculous.
That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
Only to find hot seas and air thick with smoke.
An unrelenting summer with no break in sight.
No break in sight.
Wait, where was that report from?
NBC?
Millions of Americans flocking to Greece and Italy to beat the heat?
Yeah.
Oh, jeez, where did that come from?
Rogan's there, actually.
To beat the heat?
Yes!
He's like, Adam, I gotta go to Greece to beat the heat amongst the ruins.
So this other thing that's bothering me is this heat index.
Didn't he report back that it wasn't that bad?
Of course!
He's having fun amongst the ruins.
That's literally what he said.
I'm having a good time over here.
No heat dome.
So the heat index is another thing that you just keep hearing about.
Because it's not the heat, it's the humidity.
The heat index, also known as the apparent temperature, is what the temperature feels like to the human body when relative humidity is combined with air pressure.
This has important considerations for the human body's comfort.
Yeah, it's the old feels like.
Yes.
It used to be just called feels like.
It's the opposite of the wind chill factor.
Same thing.
Yeah.
So, if that wasn't bad enough, now we have this jamoke.
Where is this guy from?
Let me see.
This is from... This is Paul Beckwith, PhD candidate from the University of Ottawa.
The temperatures that we're reaching, the temperature-humidity combinations are getting extremely detrimental to human health.
We know about the massive Texas heatwave, northern Mexico heatwave.
Have you heard about the massive Texas heat wave where people are just dying left and right?
Stop the clip, stop it.
The clip is stopped!
I have on the line someone who lives in the middle of Texas, in the middle of the Texas heat wave.
Yes, hello John, I'm here, I'm on the line, what's up?
Hey, how's the temperature?
How's the heat, Dom?
Are you guys okay?
You safe?
It's unbelievable here, John.
The heat index is just off the chart.
The apparent temperature is about 175 degrees.
It's just so dangerous.
It's so dangerous that I saw a dad the other day, he had to break his windshield with a tire iron because he locked his kid in there because of climate change.
John, it's really bad here.
Can I ask you a question?
Yes, briefly, because I'm about to pass out.
Is this much different than normal in Texas?
Oh, John, this is the worst.
In fact, here we're talking about scorched earth!
Good.
Well, Adam, be safe.
Back to the studio.
All right.
Well, that's a report from our man on the scene.
In fact, I went out, you know, Eric, who mows the lawn, you know, and he said he gave me half a mow today because, you know, the grass was growing.
It's not burned to a crisp.
So he mowed the lawn and, you know, and he said, oh, come on out and take a look.
And I go out with my hoodie on because I'm inside in this, what do we have?
It's called air conditioning.
And, uh, and I didn't fall down dead.
I stood there, chatted with him for five or ten minutes with my Salem College alma mater hoodie on.
Even that!
So...
I'm sorry, this reporting is just, is lies, is lies, is lies, is lies.
Still, to human health, we know about the massive Texas heat wave.
What do you know about the massive Texas heat wave?
I mean, it's, this is... We know about, yeah.
I moved here in... We know about Trump's crimes.
Yeah, I moved here in 2010 when it was 112 degrees, and I moved here!
The wet bulb temperature.
Now here's a new one.
What is the wet bulb temperature?
Are you familiar with the wet bulb temperature?
Actually yes.
combinations approaching the wet bulb temperature the wet bulb temperature now here's a new one what is the wet bulb temperature are you familiar with the wet bulb temperature actually yes okay what is the wet bulb temperature well there's these devices that you use to uh uh the wet draw it was called a wet this is when i was an air pollution inspector Yeah, of course.
It was called a wet bulb dry bulb thermometer.
Uh-huh.
And it was a methodology for determining the relative humidity.
And so you have this, it's like a, two thermometers side by side, one with a, with a cloth at the bottom of that you'd wet.
Right.
At the bottom of the thermometer bulb, at the bulb.
Right.
Hence the wet bulb.
And you'd take it and you'd spin this thing.
It was like a spinner.
Whoa, hold on.
Wait a minute.
It was like a nunchuck is what it was like, to be honest.
Just like a nunchuck.
You spin, spin, spin, spin, spin, and then you'd get your... Hold on a second.
Spin it, John.
Alright, spinning.
We're spinning.
All right, we're spinning it around.
Sounds pretty much like it.
So then you look at the two bulbs, or the two thermometers, and one would be the dry bulb.
It would give you the ambient temperature.
And then the wet bulb, because it was evaporating from the bulb, it would give you a lower temperature.
So the closer they are together, the more miserable you're going to be, I guess.
Was that the Zephyr?
I don't even know why we're doing these measurements, to be honest about it.
Did I hear the Zephyr in the background?
No, just some local.
Wet bulb temperature is the temperature read by a thermometer covered in water-soaked cloth.
A wet bulb thermometer over which air is passed at 100% relative humidity, the wet bulb temperature is equal to the air temperature.
At lower humidity, wet bulb temperature is lower than the dry bulb temperature because of evaporated cooling.
What's the point?
What's the point?
I know what the point is.
It sounds cool for this guy, this expert to talk about wet bulb temperature.
That's right.
I'll show him a wet bulb.
Approaching the wet bulb temperature.
This is a first, I believe, for the US.
You know, we associate these sort of high temperature high humidity reaching points where people can't work outside they can't do anything they can't even sit outside in the shade you know their body overheats they get heat exhaustion uh heat stroke and die and oh listen listen he literally said it you know
Their body overheats, they get heat exhaustion, heat stroke, and die in a matter of 8-10 hours outside if the temperature is higher than 35 with 100% humidity.
You can work out the corresponding wet bulb for Say 40 Celsius or 45 Celsius.
Oh, now he's gonna throw some Celsius at us.
We're reaching 50 degrees Celsius in regions and then... Why did he, why did he switch from, from Fahrenheit to Celsius?
This is all very... Sounds cooler.
It does.
Not even centigrade, which is what everyone really says.
Which is what he should say, yeah.
But he's from Ottawa.
It has to be Celsius.
He's Scandinavian.
Say 40 Celsius or 45 Celsius.
We're reaching 50 degrees Celsius in regions and then not only do we have to Worry about the wet bulb conditions being exceeded.
But when we talk about temperatures 50, 45, 50, we're talking about the breakdown of certain chemicals that make up the body, like proteins, for example.
You know, think of what happens when you turn into a pile of salt.
No, no, better, better chemicals that make up the body, like proteins, for example.
You know, think of what happens when you crack an egg over and expose it to 50 degree temperatures.
The clear part of the egg turns white.
And this is basically denaturation of the protein molecules.
They become broken and all twisted and, you know, make the egg clear part of the egg go white.
And, you know, this is actually happening.
These chemical breakdowns can actually start occurring.
In the human body when we reach those sort of temperatures, 50 degrees plus.
I'm an egg white!
Hold on a second.
Where would this guy, where did you get this one?
This is from the University of Ottawa podcast.
This is the PhD candidate.
They should be ashamed of themselves.
Actually, he calls himself a climate systems scientist.
Alright, so now a little bit of No Agenda history.
Because we have been following the climate change.
We're in our 16th year.
It'll be 16 years in October, actually.
We've been following climate change.
So far back, kids, back in the day, what did they used to call climate change?
Global warming.
And we hadn't even heard of climate change.
It was global warming.
You remember those days, John?
Oh, yeah.
Global warming.
Global warming.
Was what it was.
Al Gore came out.
In fact, it was global warming before.
No, Al Gore changed it, I think, didn't he?
Well, it was global warming.
He was a global warming.
Then we're going to forget the global cooling part for a moment because then we have to go further back.
We weren't doing this show.
For that, you need to go see Leonard Nimoy, Dr. Spock.
And global cooling, by the way, because I have some, I don't have any clips for today's show, but I have some historic clips.
Global cooling was, you know, we look back on it, well, it was a short-term phenomenon.
No, it went into the Reagan administration.
All right, but let's stay with global warming, which now, as you heard, what is it today?
We went from global warming to climate change, and now it's scorched earth.
I just heard it.
One of the main things that is causing global warming, climate change, scorched earth, is, of course, beef.
We know this to be true because the science has told us.
The science is in... There is a science floating around that's telling us stuff.
It used to be the thing that would cause all this, of course, was the sun, the source of all heat.
No, no, no.
But it has been meat production and consumption for over a decade.
And I know it's been for over a decade because I was so annoyed by something I heard on NPR, which I will play in a moment, that I went back to find the first time we Heard the establishment telling us what the solution is to meat, which is causing global warming.
And what was that solution?
Go vegan!
Bugs.
Eat bugs.
I think, not to correct you here, but I'm pretty sure they came up with the cow flatulence and some of these other things before they even suggested eating bugs because these were all initiatives of the vegans.
Correct.
But it was 13 years ago.
13 years ago, episode 225 of your No Agenda show, which was August 12, 2010, when we first saw the powers that be, and you'll be surprised when we first saw the powers that be, and you'll be surprised who it was, of course, there will be a term in here, which you'll Telling us that we need to eat bugs to stop global warming.
And I have that first moment when we first were given the message that bugs, eating bugs was the only way out.
We're going back 13 years in time.
The United Nations has come out.
They, of course, are the ones behind the whole Codex Alimentarius push.
And they're basically saying that, you know, we... Do we remember the Codex Alimentarius?
Yeah, unfortunately we do.
Of course are the ones behind the whole Codex Alimentarius push.
And they're basically saying that, you know, we really can't go on like this eating pigs and cows.
We need to eat insects.
Oh yeah, you beat me to that story.
It's a great story.
They let them eat bugs.
Hot Pockets filled with bugs.
That's what you mean.
The thing about this story, which gets to me, is like, this is all part of a vegan global warming agenda to keep us from eating meat.
By the way, who says that Hot Pockets aren't already filled with bugs?
They could be.
You'd have to test for it.
Yeah, it's easy.
It's against meat, that's correct.
It's all about meat, vegetarians and the vegans.
Well, wait, wait, there's more to it, John.
Sorry?
There's more to it.
Let me just tell you the exact statement.
It's to cut levels of meat consumption worldwide as part of the United Nations commitment to stamp out famine and cut global warming!
Yes!
The science is in!
Let them eat bugs!
Yeah, so they come out... Can you imagine the meetings?
How are we going to introduce this to the public?
I don't think some people are going to like the idea of eating bugs.
Well, you know, I think if we just kind of slowly bring them into it, they'll be eating bugs, you know, we just have to, and the funny thing was, now that you mention this, I realized that I got a package about, oh, six months ago, and I don't know if I, I don't think I mentioned it on the show, I didn't think about it, but it was some green initiative sending out chocolate-coated grasshoppers.
Yep.
And so I got, like, this pack of chocolate-coated grasshoppers, and my daughter and her friend, uh, they both ate one.
Yeah.
They were delicious.
They said they were good.
It's like eating a Kit-Kat bar.
It's got that crunch in it, you know, that crunchy.
Yeah.
So it's like a Kit Kat, only with a real cat inside.
So let's just establish here that the United Nations, through the Codex Alimentarius, sent out a press release saying that we needed to eat insects, bugs, to combat global hunger and global to combat global hunger and global warming.
Well, I think that the correct phrase was famine.
Famine, yes, famine.
So the logic is this.
No eating meat if there's a famine.
Yeah, don't eat.
Don't eat meat.
Hey, you famine people, go eat some bugs.
They're all over the place.
What kind of help is this?
Well, I think what they're saying is if we eat the bugs, then there'll be some meat left over for the famine people.
Yeah, maybe.
Which would basically put us into the famine people seat.
I don't know.
So let's just agree, and thank you Sir Deanonymous for putting together bingit.io.
What a wonderful resource.
It took me all of five minutes to figure this out and find the right spot and bring this.
It took me three minutes to edit the harp in.
So now we fast forward to NPR, our national treasure.
And they have a show called Codeswitch.
And Codeswitch is clearly a DEI programming initiative.
And these two hosts are going to deconstruct this huge conspiracy theory.
Here's the introduction.
Hey Jing Nan!
What's good?
Hey Gene!
So Jing Nan is one of our colleagues here at NPR and she covers how information gets made, how it gets disseminated, right?
Yes, and as part of that, I cover how conspiracy theories travel and spread.
So this is a show about gays?
No!
No, this is an actual show on NPR.
These people are paid by our national treasurer.
Isn't Code Switch, isn't that a gay term?
No, Code Switch is when, that's like when Hillary starts saying, I don't feel no tired no more, when you start talking Code Switch.
That's what code switches.
Oh, but so why are they talking gay then?
Because they're probably gay.
I don't know.
It's not the point.
Oh, okay.
Never mind then.
Forget it.
And as part of that, I cover how conspiracy theories travel and spread.
You're on the tinfoil hat beat, right?
Yes, but not just that.
I cover the entire information... John.
Save your oohs and ahhs for when it really matters.
I want you to listen, because you just won't believe what is happening.
I don't believe it already, but okay.
13 short years.
I'll back off.
13 years!
Yes, but not just that.
I covered the entire information environment, both online and offline.
Take social media, chat groups, television, schools, workplaces, churches.
So, basically, anywhere we can... Oh, churches, because that's where conspiracy theories are born.
Churches!
Permission.
Got it.
Okay.
That is a very important beat, especially right now.
Important beat?
I mean, I think so.
You're going to walk us through a phenomenon that lands right at the intersection of our two beats, right?
Race and conspiracies.
Okay, she's going to get into something that is right at the intersection of our two beats, which is race and conspiracy theories.
At the intersection of our two beats, right?
Race and conspiracies.
Yes.
Cue antisemitism, white anxiety, and a healthy dose of xenophobia.
Oh, okay.
So it seems like there's a lot of white problems here.
The conspiracy theory goes that global elites are plotting to force ordinary people like you and me to eat bugs.
What?
That's a conspiracy theory now?
That the elites have decided that they're going to force us to eat bugs?
Did we not just hear that 13 years ago?
Or maybe the United Nations, they're the elites.
Yeah, of course they're the elites, but that is now a conspiracy theory.
Why is it a theory?
We just played the reality.
Well, they clearly, I mean, her job is to scour the internet to find everything and she digs around and she didn't find us, she found something else that is NPR broadcast worthy.
The conspiracy theory goes that global elites are plotting to force ordinary people like you and me to eat bugs.
Wait, what?
To eat bugs?
Yeah, I know, I know.
What?
That's how it started.
Okay.
Global elites.
That's been kind of a wink toward this old anti-Semitic idea that they're like Jewish financiers who are secret puppet masters running the world from behind the scenes, right?
Yep, exactly.
So that's, so when we say global elites, of course that is the United Nations, without a doubt they're elites.
That means, that's a trope which is anti-semitic Jewish financiers.
No.
Well I don't, I think that they bypass it.
I think that anytime you Anything is brought up.
They just blame it on the, on the... These people are Jew haters!
Okay, so let's go to the next clip.
Because it's not just Jews they hate.
Why are folks like Thierry Baudet in the Netherlands and Tucker Carlson here all up in arms about it?
Well, right now, it may be because it has become part of an even bigger conspiracy theory.
I did some digging on the internet, and this merging seems to have begun with this anonymous blog post in 2019.
So she did some digging on the internet, went all the way back to 2019, and it sounds like she has found the origin of the conspiracy theory that the elites, mainly Jewish financiers, want us to eat bugs, instead of the actual United Nations, which told us that's what we need to do.
Which was in what, 2013?
2013, yes, correct.
So she couldn't get back that far, she got to 2019 with a blog.
2010, 2010.
Oh, she got to 2010.
No, she got to 2019.
We were talking about it in 2010.
2010, okay.
So she couldn't get back before 2019, and so she thinks that's the origin.
So she's giving us her version of the origin story, which is totally bogus.
Correct.
That's correct.
All I could find out about the person who wrote it is that they call themselves a white identitarian.
So they're a white supremacist of some sort.
Yeah, and you have the tweets to back it up.
And in the days after the Notre Dame Cathedral caught fire in Paris, this blogger went on this rant saying that the fire was on purpose.
Okay, so what she's doing here is she's giving credibility to this blog post that she found, which apparently they have to tweet to back it up, from a white identitarian, i.e.
white supremacist, who also claimed that the Notre Dame was set on fire on purpose!
Which it probably was!
Oh, there's a lot of evidence to suggest it was set on fire on purpose.
Not on NPR!
That it was not only an attack on Christianity and Christendom, but another sign of global elites being sadists and wanting to punish and enslave people around the world.
And then the blog post took a turn.
This person wrote, quote, Have you noticed there is quite a lot of research going into turning bugs into mass food products?
Then the phrase, I would not eat the bugs, crossed from 4chan over to Twitter, first by way of, again, a white nationalist.
So, OK, so this person identifies that bug ingredients are going into mass food products.
Cricket flour, anybody?
I mean, yes, this is absolutely happening.
But it's part of another conspiracy theory.
Like, after conspiracy theorists have been stuffing all sorts of stories under the Great Reset name, things like governments are forcing you to stay at home and wear a mask.
Or, like, take the vaccine.
Yes, exactly.
Hey, hold on a second.
This is a, this show is a parody.
This is a joke.
There is something comedic about this show.
And you're playing it, and you've been suckered.
I don't think so, John.
They are dead.
You've been suckered into thinking they're serious.
They are dead serious.
These people, yes, yes, yes, listen.
The Great Reset, they believe that's a conspiracy theory instead of the title of Klaus Schwab's book and his main raison d'etre.
It's not a conspiracy theory, it's a book title.
Governments are forcing you to stay at home and wear a mask.
Or like take the vaccine.
Yes, exactly.
It's been construed as a ploy to control the population and take away your freedoms for good.
No kidding!
No kidding.
For good.
For good.
But you can hear the WF trying to address that concern here.
A great resource.
So now they're playing a piece of the Great Reset from the World Economic Forum, where the World Economic Forum pushed back.
They're playing this now as, well, listen.
But you can hear the WEF trying to address that concern here.
That sounds more like buzzword bingo, masking some nefarious plans for world domination.
Hands up!
This kind of slogan hasn't gone down well.
But all we really want to say is that we all have an opportunity to build a better world.
They sound mad offensive, like if you're a conspiracy theorist, that might make you even more suspicious of the people at Davos and WEF, right?
Yeah, they're trying to debunk or pre-bunk, depending on how you look at it.
I like pre-bunk, that's cool.
Not very effectively either way.
The actual Great Reset initiative that sprung out of Davos is still vague and sprawling, kind of like the Great Reset conspiracy theory.
Oh, OK, I see what they're saying.
So they're saying that, you know, just this little thing that came out of the World Economic Forum that they called the Great Reset, that's not really like the Great Reset conspiracy theory.
You're gonna love how this winds up.
It's like a hodgepodge of old, often anti-Semitic tropes.
Anti-Semitic tropes?
talk on its name the conspiracy theory goes that there were shadowy puppeteers behind governments before it's called the great reset it had a different name the new world order you're gonna love how this winds up it's like a hodgepodge of old orphan anti-semitic tropes so you're saying anti-semitic tropes no it was george bush who said it george bush senior not a jew last time i checked george you dubbed george
George H. These people have no history, have no education as far as I'm concerned.
It sounds like they're two adults, they're just like two kids, you know, eighth graders just kind of making it up.
No, I believe they've been given a script.
This is a very poorly written script, let me tell you.
Hello, Chad GPT!
Before it's called The Great Reset, it had a different name.
The New World Order.
It's like a hodgepodge of old, often anti-Semitic tropes.
And so you're saying that The Great Reset gave that old New World Order a new branding?
Yes, and a new life as well.
Like, think about all this anxiety about the pandemic, right?
It supercharged this conspiratorial thinking.
Conspiracy theory is one of the things that people do to cope with uncertainty.
And the pandemic was a very uncertain time.
So, you know, the New World Order absorbed eating bugs as one of the more salacious subplots before the pandemic.
And fast forward to 2022, it is intertwined again with the Great Reset.
I can't even follow this logic, but somehow we couldn't deal with the pandemic, because, you know, we're obviously white supremacists and Jew haters, and we're just tinfoil hat wearers.
So before the pandemic started, we started with this bug-eating thing, and then during the pandemic, it made us feel good to wrap it up into what we used to call the New World Order.
Okay, NPR, sounds good.
Now, the idea of eating bugs What's the name of the show again?
Code Switch.
So why would we not want to eat bugs?
Now, their answer is even more stunning than what we think it is.
And that means the colonists were not going to eat the bugs.
Here's an expert who researched it.
There was very much an idea that you are what you eat back then.
And so the Europeans felt they need European foods.
So there is a very much a worry that if you ate the indigenous foods, you would become a savage.
Okay, because we're worried that if we eat bugs, we'll become savages because we're colonialists.
She is Julie Lesnik, an anthropologist at Wayne State University in Detroit.
She studies entomophagy, or insect eating.
Lesnik wrote an article tracing this colonial history of eating bugs, or reluctance to eat bugs, in America.
She says we don't have much information between then and now, but that this repulsion probably became a learned thing over time.
I think it just kind of gets recapitulated every generation, like it's the same thing and it just becomes the same thing again because the seed was planted in the generation before.
The key here is that disgust is socially reinforced.
Babies don't find bugs disgusting until they're a little older, right?
And this idea that... Lady, do you have a child?
Have you fed your child bugs?
Do you know this for a fact that babies don't find bugs disgusting until they're a little older, right?
Babies don't find bugs disgusting.
What age?
Babies, babies!
No, no, I'm saying what age do they find them disgusting because most kids I know, even when they're babies, they repulse by bugs.
Of course.
Reinforced.
Babies don't find bugs disgusting until they're a little older, right?
And this idea that we are the civilized and that we have, you know, the best and are the best.
And so insects are so easy for people to other and... Othering insects!
Oh my god!
Because the poor bugs, they're easy to other because they can't talk back.
Can I stop you for one second?
Sure.
Because you didn't mention the name of this show.
I did.
I said it five times.
Code Switch.
No, the name of the episode.
Oh, do you have the name of the episode?
Yes, I do.
What's the episode?
The right-wing conspiracy theory about eating bugs is as racist as you think.
Why are you giving away my punchline?
I thought we already had this figured out.
No, the punchline is this.
Thanks for stopping me.
Well, I'm sorry, but the name of the show is important.
Whose presentation is this?
Alright, I'm sorry.
I'm just trying to add to the... I'm trying to add dimensionality.
Thanks.
Thanks.
And so, insects are so easy for people to other and associate with people that are not the best and not civilized.
It's like the easiest punching bag.
So, by... Wait!
I hate to keep stopping you because you keep bitching about it, but... What did she say?
And so... We're uncivilized because we don't eat bugs?
No, no, no.
Bugs are easy to other because... Yeah, I got that part.
Because we're uncivilized.
No, no, no.
People who eat bugs, like, you know, black people who eat bugs, black people in Africa or wherever... Indian, American Indians just eat bugs.
They're black.
We hate them too because we're white.
We hate everybody.
Because they're so easy to other, then we are sophisticated and those others, others who eat other things like bugs, they are less than us because we're racists.
You know, the best and are the best.
And so insects are so easy for people to other and associate with people that are not the best and not civilized.
It's like the easiest punching bag.
Okay, so let's finalize this with the last clip, which will explain even better than the title, will explain exactly to the T who they are talking about.
I mean, last year, a pollster who worked with Democratic candidates asked respondents if they agreed with a statement that the federal government is controlled by a secret cabal.
53% of Republicans agreed with that.
And so did 41% of Independents and 37% of Democrats.
Wow, okay, so that kind of makes sense.
The idea that our government actively works to advance the desires of a small number of very powerful, very rich people.
When you think about it like that, I'm surprised the numbers of people answering yes to that question are that low, to be honest.
The thing is, that poll was a way to get at people's QAnon beliefs.
That statement is a central statement of the QAnon conspiracy theory.
She's saying QAnon.
You see, it's the central statement of the QAnon conspiracy.
She said QAnon?
I couldn't understand her.
She's saying QAnon.
Well, are you othering her?
I am, because she can't speak English that's understandable.
She's a broadcaster!
Or that low, to be honest.
The thing is, that poll was a way to get at people's QAnon beliefs.
So the poll was a way to get at people's QAnon beliefs?
Poll was a way to get at people's QAnon beliefs.
Like that statement is a central statement of the QAnon conspiracy theory.
There is no neat formula leading people to adopt these ideas.
We don't really know why people get caught up in them.
What we do know is that certain categories of people have picked up these ideas more.
Okay, are you ready for the categories of people who have picked up these theories more?
The true evil a-holes who other bugs and have come up with a QAnon-related conspiracy.
Unvaccinated, male, conservative, Trump-voting, Republican, and also not college-educated.
Oh, the boxes, baby!
I tick them all!
This is truly atrocious what these people are doing.
Oh, it's a kind of racism that is completely disgusting.
And it's an NPR production, so it comes right from National Public Radio.
It's not like one of the offshoots or an independent group.
This is NPR sanctioned.
I'm looking at their page.
And it's gross.
And it's so inaccurate about the fact that we could play clips from 2010 and she can't get past a blog post in 2019 attributing all the bug eating phenomenon to this one blogger who happened to be a white guy.
But of course we're all Jew haters.
It's just unbelievable, and this is the problem.
By the way, people out there, everyone listening, if you give any money to these people, think about it, and instead send it to us.
Exactly.
Exactly.
And by these people, I mean anyone who works in and around NPR.
Yes.
That is... this is why podcasts are winning.
I would hope.
I would hope no one listens.
Oh, that's a good one though.
Good catch.
I don't think that my revealing the title of the show hurt your point at all.
Not a little bit.
No.
It would have been a bigger reveal.
I don't think so.
Okay.
I think it added to the suspense.
Good work, John.
Sorry.
I meant to say good work.
Thanks for adding to the suspense.
Um, all right.
Distraction of the week time.
If sharks aren't terrifying enough to some of you, there's a new threat in the waters off of Florida.
How about sharks hopped up on cocaine?
Experts say sharks may be gobbling up bales of drugs which have been dumped off the Florida coast by smugglers.
Marine biologists went to study the phenomenon.
They conducted experiments and spotted a hammerhead shark swimming into dumped packages and biting into them.
That gave them what the scientists call crazy brain.
Okay, so we've got sharks hopped up on coke because for some reason these coke bales are in the water and don't disintegrate.
No, no, no, not a problem.
No, no, they're in the water.
This is the latest thing.
In fact, there was a big bust of like a billion dollars worth of coke where the big trawlers come loaded with the coke and they throw it in the water on purpose to get picked up later.
So it's pretty watertight.
Until the shark bites it, then it's all over.
But somebody pointed out that this is just kind of an interesting way to get some news, some attraction to a fake story based on the fact that cocaine bear was a big hit on the movie theaters.
It's even worse than that.
It is a native ad for something we deal with every single year.
Where they behaved erratically.
The phenomenon is featured in a new documentary for the Discovery Channel Shark Week.
This was the best lead-in so far.
It's every single.
Every year.
The distraction of the week.
Oh, no.
Every year.
You see the jingle for Shark Week.
Every year.
Every year.
Yeah, every year.
Every year.
Well, this was the best lead-in so far.
Mm-hmm.
It's definitely funny.
Every year.
And all these networks are showing b-roll from like jaws with the big white shark coming out of the water.
Just biting at everything.
There's no wonder that people are cutting the cord.
They're not watching television anymore.
People, you're over.
You're so over.
I mean, this strike, you're getting screwed.
This strike thing.
I mean, look, I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry for the actors and the writers.
And of course, it doesn't just affect them.
I mean, IATSE, all the technicians, you know, everybody is affected by this.
But the actors and the writers, I'd say, but the actors, they're stupid.
They are dumb.
They are lapping up this AI bull crap.
Your enemy is big tech.
Big tech owns your outlets now.
Literally, Amazon owns studios.
Yeah.
Literally.
They own MGM, for example.
They own studios and they own the streaming.
And if you have not noticed, If you've not noticed, YouTube and TikTok, the Silicon Valley model is give us your creativity, we'll give you nothing.
That's what they do.
And then they throw algos in there so that these poor influencers have to, you know, post three videos a day.
Otherwise, they drop in the algo and, oh, I got to keep up.
I got to post more.
I got to post more.
You know, in order to make any kind of money with their influencer bullcrap.
And at the drop of a hat, they can get cut off.
You know, people like start to live that way and they got house payments and car payments and then they're destroyed overnight.
That is what big tech does.
And now you're surprised.
That the streaming model does not include residuals.
You're surprised that Big Tech has decided to cut seasons, an anachronism of epic proportion.
Seasons?
No!
We just have six episodes of something and people binge that!
They watch it like one long movie.
Have you not noticed this, actors and writers?
Have you not seen what's going on?
And now you're buying into Silicon Valley's ultimate hype of AI!
And so now you're, instead of fighting for a different revenue model, Which, I don't know, could be based upon how many people watch.
There's a lot of different things you could actually force if you were smart.
Instead of doing that, you're buying into the dummy stuff.
This is a successful actor, because of course, the successful actors, they're just on vacation.
This is James Van Der Beek.
He's an actor from the successful show Dawson's Creek.
The Screen Actors Guild.
There's some big things and there's one monumental thing.
I'm also a member of who's been striking for the last three months.
I can't join them on the picket lines because I'm on vacation with my family, so this is my contribution.
Why are we striking?
What's at stake?
There's some big things, and there's one monumental thing.
The big things have to do with issues that would allow writers and actors who are just starting out to earn something that looks like a living weight.
The monumental thing is AI.
like residuals, which have all but disappeared in the streaming era.
These are nothing to multi-billion dollar corporations, but they're everything to people trying to pay the groceries and pay the rent.
The monumental thing is AI.
And this affects you as a viewer.
Writers need protection from studios generating AI scripts.
Actors, we need protection over our likenesses and images and voices.
If we don't win these two, acting and writing might cease to be a viable career in the future.
Now, I know this sounds dramatic, but it is the truth.
Can AI be a storytelling tool that we can use to tell compelling stories and move you?
Yes, totally, in the right hands.
In the hands of the studios, it will be a cost-cutting tool.
Dummies!
Dummies!
Your audience doesn't care if a computer wrote the script!
They're watching a movie about a doll!
So if you want a live human heart behind the entertainment that you consume, we have to win this.
How can you support?
If you know an actor or a writer who has a podcast, if they're selling something, if they have a side gig, if they're on Cameo, book them, patronize them, tell me love them.
Dummies.
Dummies.
Your audience doesn't care if a computer wrote the script.
They're watching a movie about a doll.
You're stupid.
Get it together.
There's not even a movie... According to most of the reviews I've seen so far about these two movies...
Oppenheimer's too long and it stinks, and Barbie is just a one-long advertisement for Mattel!
I have a clip!
One word seems to have captivated movie audiences this weekend.
Barbenheimer.
Two films that couldn't be more different, released on the same day, but they've managed to revive something a lot of people thought was dead.
The summer movie spectacle, at a time when the industry is in crisis.
I bought my tickets months ago.
Americans are back at the theaters, many dressed in pink, lining up to see two films with no connection.
Hi Barbie!
Hi Ken!
The bright pink comedy, Barbie.
Hi Barbie!
Hi Barbie!
And the dark historical trauma, Oppenheimer.
Moviegoers are leaning in to the wildly different tones.
Some 200,000 people bought advance tickets to see both movies on the same day, according to the National Association of Theater Owners.
We saw Barbie at 3, and then we're doing Oppenheimer at 6, so it's like a full day thing.
But the industry is in dire straits.
Ticket sales haven't fully recovered from the pandemic, down 20% since 2019.
And summer sequels like Indiana Jones and Mission Impossible are no longer attracting audiences the way they used to.
Both fell short of expectations.
And complicating any recovery, Hollywood screenwriters are on strike for a third month.
Joined on the picket line by the Screen Actors Guild eight days ago.
Tens of thousands are out of work.
Production on new films halted.
Movies don't write themselves.
You have to have actors in front of the camera.
So this is going to be very important that this gets resolved the sooner the better.
So while the Barbie and Oppenheimer bump is keeping movie theaters alive, the big question is, what's next?
With no big summer blockbusters on the horizon, and actors potentially unable to promote upcoming films if this strike stretches on.
Well now, wouldn't you be surprised to find out that there is something that's next?
Next up, Jamie Foxx.
Over the weekend, the actor was spotted in public for the first time since being hospitalized back in April for what a representative referred to as an unspecified medical emergency.
Well, in the branded video, this was obtained by TMZ.
The Golden Globe winner is seen here on a boat, cruising down the Chicago River, looking cheerful, smiling and waving at the camera, even tossing up a peace sign.
for the video since april few updates have been provided on fox's health but back in may his daughter corinne shared on social media that her dad was back at home he's recuperating he plays pickleball so we're happy to see jv back in action of course we wish him the best on his recovery and right on cue netflix releases the summer blockbuster they clone tyrone which looks fantastic it's It's now streaming on Netflix.
It's Jamie Foxx.
It's almost like a takeoff on a blaxploitation movie from the 70s.
Looks hilarious.
With pimps, and hoes, and then clones, it's fantastic!
And all of a sudden, right in the middle of the strike, when you've got these two dogs of movies out there that the M5M is desperately trying to tell you that, oh no, you don't just want to see one, you want to get tickets to both of them!
Yeah, that's what I want to do!
Jamie Foxx lives!
How far it took me and how it brought me back.
I went through something that I thought I would never ever go through.
And I know a lot of people were waiting or wanting to hear updates, but to be honest with you, I just didn't want you to see me like that, man.
You know, I want you to see me laughing, having a good time, partying, cracking a joke, doing a movie, television show.
I didn't want you to see me with, uh, with tubes.
Tubes!
Running out and trying to figure out, uh, everything.
If I was gonna make it through and I'll be honest with you my my sister did addiction my daughter Corinne Marie saved my life so To them, to God, to a lot of great medical people, I'm able to leave you this video.
I cannot tell you how great it feels to have your family kick in in such a way and y'all know they kept it airtight.
They didn't let nothing out.
They protected me and that's what I hope that everyone could have in the moments And then, you know, by being quiet, sometimes things get out of hand.
People say what I got.
Some people said I was blind.
But as you can see, the eyes are working.
The eyes are working just fine.
Well, since when do we have to prove that I'm not blind by moving his eyes back and forth?
This is weird.
Well, I think that had to do... He had, I think, gray and bar A from the effects.
Yeah, something like that.
Which paralyzes half your body and does weird things to your eyes.
There was a clip floating around the internet of him with his eyes.
They showed his eyes.
Oh.
And they were a wreck.
Yeah I mean it wasn't it was like beyond anything anyone could actually do what he was doing.
Oh goodness.
And so and because I had a friend who had this ailment years ago and he he was had his eyes were shut because one eyeball wouldn't move and it was really it was painful to move the other one and so the I got a hold of an ophthalmologist specialist from the University of California who said Who told him to patch the good eye, which is the key to getting out of that mess.
And it worked.
He's fine.
But yeah, so that so he I think that was a reflection of that.
I don't know why they put that clip on the net.
It was disgusting with his eyes going every which way.
I just find the timing very coincidental.
Yeah, it's good timing.
Somebody's good at doing high fives.
Yeah, someone's doing a smart move.
Now, a couple of things that I've noticed in this bullcrap.
First of all, when I was a kid... There we go.
Double features were common, especially on the weekends.
Yes, double features.
So it was a double feature.
You go see one movie and there'd be another one.
But the other thing is I noticed Margot Robbie and the crew of Barbie, they've been showing up on these talk shows that they're not supposed to show up on.
Oh really?
Yeah, and it goes like this, oh we recorded this a couple of weeks before the strike.
And I don't believe a word of it.
Well, there was one, I think it was Kelly Clarkson or one of the people had the whole crew on.
They had Robbie and all four of the main actresses.
And they didn't have Reynolds, but they had the rest of them.
And there was all this bullcrap about how it was recorded weeks ago.
I'm just not buying it.
I think they desperately had to get some publicity for this movie.
Yeah, well they do the junkets, you know.
I was listening to Fran Drescher on a hate listen with Kara Swisher.
Oh yeah, how'd you get her?
In Eclipse?
No, no.
She's nuts.
I must not have been that hateful.
Oh no, but I like Fran Drescher.
I kind of like her.
Yeah, I admire her, especially as the head of the union.
Do you know that she created The Nanny?
She wasn't just an actor.
She created it.
She wrote it.
She executive produced it.
That was all her deal.
I didn't know that.
No, well good for her.
And so apparently they asked Rosie O'Donnell to be the head of the union, and Rosie said, no, but you need Fran Drescher.
Anyway, so the union, here's what they did.
The contract expired on June 30th, 31st, whatever.
No, 30th.
And they asked for an extension.
And so Fran thought, okay, well, and the lawyers thought, okay, so they're coming up with something.
They canceled a few meetings during that extension, and then they basically said, yeah, you know what, we got nothing for you.
But in that interim period, they had just enough time to promote these movies.
She got hoodwinked!
They hoodwinked her for an extra 12 days!
Oh, that was a good move.
It was a great move!
So smart.
I mean, a-holes, but okay.
That's what you do.
Yeah.
These are tech companies too, people remember.
So, my goodness.
And I think that it's over.
Late night talk TV shows, people have already moved on.
What are we doing?
Not we, but what are people doing at night when they're in bed or when they're getting ready to go to bed?
They're watching TikTok.
They're not going to go back to watching Jimmy Fallon.
That's over.
By the time the writers come back and the strike is over, no one's gonna care.
They don't care about the celebrities because no one watches award shows anymore.
They just don't care.
They got to sit down and think about this.
I didn't believe these numbers when they came out.
I think you brought them up and I was like, that's bullcrap.
Sounds about right.
Greg Gutfeld was getting bigger ratings than the night shows on the networks.
Correct.
Much bigger.
Well, not much, but they were bigger.
He beat all those guys.
And Gutfeld's show is just kind of a, it's a low-budget show.
It's pretty much, you know, the same guests.
It's not really, there's no anything going on besides Gutfeld doing one-liners and the guests trying to be funny.
And there's not much to it.
You don't have, you know, it doesn't promote movies.
Very cheap production, no writing.
There are writers.
I don't know if you want to say that, but... Oh, I'm sorry.
I thought it was no writing.
There are writers, because somebody writes a gut-filled... He writes himself, I think.
But is he a member of the union?
I wonder.
I don't know.
Probably not.
It's like a stand-up comic.
No stand-up comics are a member of that union.
So we had a dinner Friday night.
A hill country dinner.
With some of the locals.
Of which one is the international arms dealer.
Oh yeah.
And he, by the way, he served some dynamite wine.
I asked him to send me all the details.
I think he's still drunk, so he didn't send it to me, but I asked him to.
Couldn't you just look at the bottle and remember what it said?
Dude, I was drunk.
I don't remember.
It was, he had, so he had two different champagnes to start with, including a JCB.
Are you familiar with the JCB?
Not offhand.
I don't want to embarrass myself, but I will get the information for you.
Some really dynamite wines.
We had lobster rolls.
It was actually a celebration for Tina's birthday, so they threw a little birthday party for her up on the hill at the International Arms Dealer's house.
So, of course, he's nice and sauced up.
I'm like, how's business?
So he's actually the lawyer for the arms dealer.
And so I got a little lowdown on how it works because there's two more aircraft, C-130s, that have gone to Entebbe, which is Uganda.
And so he tells me how it works.
The way it works is his client is, of course, the actual arms dealer.
And his client buys the aircraft from the US government.
While simultaneously selling it to a private dealer in Uganda.
So he actually owns the aircraft for about five minutes.
And then guess who buys it from that guy in Uganda?
Zelensky.
The United Nations.
Oh, really?
Yes, really.
And the United Nations is down there collecting gear.
And now they're showing up in news reports because we know that there's something going on with the weapons from Ukraine going down to Africa.
And here's a report from Turkish radio television.
Russia's assault on Ukrainian southern ports continues.
At least 60,000 tons of grain have been lost.
Grain prices have risen and fears that food prices and food insecurity will follow.
Wednesday saw the largest single-day increase in wheat prices since the full-scale invasion commenced.
Some will go hungry, some will starve, many may die.
It's targeting fuel facilities tied to a Ukrainian attack on a bridge in Russian-controlled Crimea days ago.
But Kiev says Moscow's attacks on crucial grain distribution for the rest of the world is tied to Russia pulling out of the Black Sea grain deal.
On Friday, Ukrainian President Zelensky promised a response.
If someone in Russia hopes they can turn the Black Sea into an area of arbitrary action and terrorism, they will not succeed.
We know how to defend ourselves.
Zelensky spoke on Friday with Turkish President Erdogan, who said he's willing to talk directly with Vladimir Putin again, and possibly meet with him next month in Turkey.
We believe the Russian Federation should be brought to the table again.
There is a high probability that solutions other than this will be coercion and will endanger security.
Moscow says it will treat ships heading toward Ukrainian ports now as hostile, subject to search or attack.
All ships, all vessels proceeding to the Black Sea waters and Ukrainian ports are read by us as carriers of military cargo.
Moscow says it is willing to rejoin the grain deal only if it gets economic concessions from the West.
Zelensky and Putin have both been trying to court leaders in Africa who stand to lose the most by the grain deal's collapse.
Putin has promised to send them free grain, but Zelensky says Putin's latest aggression will cost African lives.
I am now thinking in light of, you know, this conspiracy theory we have part of eating bugs that that Russia may be.
And one of our producers actually turned me on this idea.
Russia may be stopping these grain exports to Africa because Putin knows this is weapons going down there.
What how else are they?
How else do you ship the weapons from Ukraine to Africa?
Ah, that's not a bad thought.
I thought it was a very good thought.
And by the way, we now know the UN is down there buying stuff.
And they're not driving them down, that's for sure.
Then why are they buying stuff?
Why are they buying C-130s?
What is the UN doing in Uganda?
What is the UN doing in Africa?
How about Sudan?
A food crisis looms over war-torn Sudan.
Critical infrastructure in the capital Khartoum and neighboring cities of Khartoum North and Omdurman has been damaged, resulting in the closure of more than 90% of the food processing facilities.
And there's little help in sight.
Escalating violence means humanitarian organizations are unable to safely operate.
And the warring parties have been accused of theft and disrupting the flow of aid.
With the ongoing conflict and the imperfect ceasefire, it makes it more difficult for us, the humanitarian actors, to deliver assistance.
This is a UN guy.
Assistances, and they are life-saving assistances to the ones who are in need.
Since Sudan's armed forces and the paramilitary rapid support forces began fighting in April, supply channels to the capital Khartoum have been cut off, causing many regions to run out of food.
The basic necessities are extremely scarce, including flour, milk, bean products, edible oil, and beverages.
The inventory is dwindling, and the price is constantly rising.
Now, already, to an exaggerated degree, and it's still going, with no sign of stopping.
And the scarcity of resources means farmers are unable to plant their crops in time.
People are struggling to get by.
No one knows what would come tomorrow.
As the violence continues and relief supplies remain inaccessible in many areas, tens of thousands of people are at risk of starvation.
First of all, what is this war in Sudan?
They might clip so we can at least catch up with that.
This is the update.
Hold on a second.
Thank you, I'm glad you have this.
In Sudan, the UN reports 200,000 people have been displaced just in the past week as fighting rages between the army and the paramilitary rapid support forces, or RSF.
In the four months since the conflict erupted, some 2.6 million people have been internally displaced and over 730,000 have fled Sudan.
Survivors of the 2003 genocide in Darfur say the targeting of the Masalit people in today's conflict resembles the ethnic cleansing suffered in the region 20 years ago.
The International Criminal Court launched an investigation last week into possible war crimes and crimes against humanity in Darfur.
This is ICC Prosecutor Karim Khan.
We are, by any analysis, not on the precipice of a human catastrophe, but in the very midst of one.
It is occurring.
And it's my analysis and my prayer and advice that we must act urgently, collectively, to protect the most vulnerable.
Okay, I don't understand.
I know the Dutch Heli Battalion because I was with them in Iraq in 2003 for two weeks.
They all went to either Afghanistan or Mali or Darfur.
And they all pulled out in the last couple years.
And now all of a sudden it's a crap show over there.
This smells.
It really smells and by the way, what about this rapid force?
Whatever it is.
This is group.
Yeah, that's causing all the trouble.
We don't have any explanation or any deconstruction by the mainstream or anybody else about what the hell's going on here.
This is some sort of a screwball thing that I just get the distinct impression.
We're behind because Sudan is part of the West Clark 7.
Maybe we should just play that for a second.
The West Clark Seven, always good to remember.
Seven countries in five years.
Starting with Iraq, and then Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and finishing off Iran.
Yeah, and if you hadn't...
In case you hadn't noticed, Iran's cranking up again.
The new military moves the U.S.
is making as tensions rise with Iran.
The Secretary of Defense sending Marines and more warships to the Middle East after Iran's attempt to seize two oil tankers in international waters.
ABC's Inez De La Cotara has the latest now from London.
Good morning to you, Inez.
From London, let's get the spooks on the line.
Who gave the order to deploy new assets?
Where's the president saying, uh, I think we should deploy some assets because this is what's going on, American people?
No, no, no, no, no.
Let's just do it.
Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin ordering additional warships and forces.
Does he get to do that?
Lloyd Austin?
Yeah, I think I'll just order some warships over there.
...to the region, and that's on top of the Navy destroyer F-16 and F-35s also being deployed.
U.S.
Central Command saying this is all meant to deter Iran's destabilizing activities in the Strait of Hormuz, with the U.S.
stopping Iran from seizing two oil tankers traveling through international waters earlier this month.
CENTCOM says that in the last two years, Iran has attacked, seized, or attempted to seize nearly 20 internationally flagged merchant vessels.
Now there are questions as to whether this could all be part of a tit-for-tat because the U.S.
has also been seizing oil tankers, an effort to crack down on shipments of Iranian oil, evading U.S.
sanctions.
We have, we have one of these tankers that we grabbed.
Yes!
Just off the coast of Texas.
Do you have a clip?
They've been trying to sell off the oil to the Texas refiners and nobody will buy it.
No one touches it.
By the way, Victoria Newland has announced she will soon be visiting South Africa.
And we grieve.
We grieve for you, South Africa, because when she visits, you know no good is going to come from that.
So there was a, I guess it was running today, but it was online, it was Margaret Brennan to Face the Nation with Burns.
Ah!
Did you get any clips?
I have one clip.
I recorded the whole thing and listened to it and it's better for me to summarize what Burns said because Burns is a master at really talking slow and not really telling you anything you really want to know.
And I'm talking about William Burns, the head of the CIA.
And the other reason I don't have more eclipses of this one is because it was obviously scripted.
And I'll tell you some of the things that were missing that any journalist like Brennan or Margaret would have done.
There's no question about Ukraine and NATO.
There's no question about Ukraine in the EU.
There's nothing about Putin's real motivation for doing this.
There's nothing about us setting him up or goading him.
There's nothing about Iran that's meaningful.
There's no good questions.
And so I just so I have this one clip which brings me to a question about the clip because I think it's the only reasonable clip and this is the very beginning of the show.
This is Brennan and Burns.
You've got the whole world to watch right now.
So I know you're a busy man.
I want to start on Ukraine and Russia with this anniversary.
On the cusp of Russia's invasion, you flew to Kiev and you told President Zelensky, tell me if this is right, the Russians are coming to kill you.
Was that the very first thing you said?
It wasn't the very first thing I said to President Zelensky, but President Biden had asked me to go to Kyiv to lay out for President Zelensky the most recent intelligence we had, which suggested that what Vladimir Putin was planning was what he thought would be a lightning strike from the Belarus border to seize Kyiv in a matter of a few days, and also to seize an airport just northwest of Kyiv called Gostomel, which he wanted to use as a platform to bring in airborne troops
As a way, again, of accelerating that lightning conquest of Kiev.
And I think President Zelensky understood what was at stake and what he was up against.
Our Ukrainian intelligence partners also had good intelligence about what was coming as well.
But I do think that the role of intelligence in this instance, what we're able to provide to President Zelensky, not just on that trip, but throughout the course of the war, have helped him to defend his country with such courage and tenacity.
And I think that made a contribution.
Okay, so yeah, the whole thing is like this.
They're letting this, they're hanging Zelensky out to dry.
Well, whatever the case is, the point I get out of this particular clip, and the only one that was really worth playing, because as you can tell, you know... Yeah, nothing, nothing for me.
So is, hey, if we knew so much about this in advance, months in advance, to that extreme that he says he has to fly, he personally has to fly to Kiev to tell Zelensky that Putin wants to kill him.
Why didn't we put a stop to it?
No, because what really happened is he went there and said, hey, we, the CIA, are going to kill you unless you send these arms down to Africa.
Because, and I think this is what's going on, according to Economic Policy Journal, the Chinese plan to put 300 million Chinese in Africa and take over the continent.
But I think that's what's going on.
We just, hey, let's start a whole bunch of wars down there.
The Chinese will stay away until we can figure it out.
Send more guns!
If you remember, during the Libyan conflagration, when we went after Gaddafi, out of the blue for no good reason, the Chinese had set up shop and had built a huge complex just in Tripoli somewhere, and it's still there as a shell, because we bombed the crap out of it, the Chinese scampered off, never to return.
So you might be right about the Chinese, because the Chinese have been working in Africa since way before we started this show, and we've documented it, both of us.
And they don't like conflict.
No, they're like millennials.
They're non-confrontational.
The Chinese millennials.
They don't cut in line.
They can't tell time.
No, that's interesting.
From my experiences, all they do is cut in line, but that's something else.
All right.
So let me wrap up Africa and then I think I can show you where Ukraine is going.
The, what is this, the head of, I think it's the Russian army, Igor Kirilov.
Who is he?
Anyway, he's a Russian official.
He now says that documents were found in Ukraine, in the labs, that indicate that the Pentagon planned to test medical drugs On the African population.
They indicate the Pentagon plan to use U.S.
Army to test unregistered medical drugs and then submit them for approval.
And of course, this involves agencies such as MetaBiota, because why wouldn't we implicate Hunter Biden while we're at it?
It's beautiful.
And then Russia.
I think this, so I'm going to wind up Ukraine here, as we, there's not much more we have on Africa right now, but when it comes to Ukraine, this is what Vladimir Putin thinks is going to happen.
Well, Germany says it will stand by Poland in case of a potential attack from Wagner fighters in neighboring Belarus.
Members of the Russian mercenary group arrived at a base near the Polish border earlier this week.
And are due to hold joint military exercises with Belarusian forces.
Poland calls that a provocation and is deploying more troops on its eastern side in response.
Russian President Vladimir Putin alleged on Friday, without any evidence, that Poland is plotting to seize parts of Ukraine and Belarus.
Now, one of our producers sent me this, and I said, nah, that doesn't sound right, and then this clip shows up.
Like, that could be a very potential possibility.
Let's put Poland in there.
Let's get those guys going.
Let's move the heat off of us for a little bit because we now need to change the focus of the military-industrial complex.
We need to start sending weapons directly to Africa.
We now have reasons for it because, you know, there's war!
We've got crazy warlords in Sudan.
We've got, you know, we need to arm the United Nations because people are hungry.
We need to go there with guns to feed the people.
By the way, why can't they eat bugs?
Seems like if you're hungry, there's plenty of them.
Plenty of bugs there.
So, we're going to ramp up something new.
Videos showing a series of explosions across Russian-occupied Crimea have been posted to social media sites.
Moscow-installed authorities on the peninsula say an ammunition depot exploded and caught fire after being struck by Ukrainian drones.
The incident occurred at Krasnovodsk in central Crimea.
They said there were no casualties in the blast and ordered an evacuation of the area.
Ukraine's military has not commented on the explosions.
Let's welcome Marina Moran, a military analyst at King's College London.
Marina, welcome.
This is a spook college.
Let's talk about the drone attacks on Russian-occupied Crimea today, just days after that significant attack on the Kerch Bridge, which I'll remind our viewers connects Crimea to Russia.
So what we're seeing here, and we've been hearing it for a while, with the kamikaze drones, with the Iranian drones that sound like a moped, we are into a new form of drone warfare.
And this is not your Reaper drones.
This is not your, you know, your drones controlled by dudes sitting in the Nevada desert.
Way too expensive.
No, no, no.
We need to start sending some real military stuff down to Africa.
This has to be above board.
We've got to get some real funding for it.
But we need to do something with Zelensky.
We need to throw the guy a bone.
And who He tells us what's going on, but the anti-constitutionalist, elitist douchebag Fareed Zakaria on CNN, and he brings in Eric Schmidt.
The Google guy.
The ex-Google guy who is now everywhere you don't want to see this guy show up.
Certainly in defense.
And to start off this little interview, Fareed has to disclaim... I should note I am a senior advisor at Schmidt Futures, his philanthropic initiative.
So, this is a native ad.
This is a native ad.
Now listen to what Eric Schmidt is saying.
We, meaning the Ukrainians, the US, the West, need a solution to get them moving.
So that gets us to drones.
They are already using an extraordinary number of drones, the Ukrainians.
How many drones are they using a week or a month?
They're on track to using a couple hundred thousand drones in a year.
Most drones only survive one or two flights before they fail or they're blocked.
I was shocked at how good the Russians were at electronic warfare and jamming.
Basically everything you send into this battlefield, which is quite narrow by the way, the rest of the country is fine.
I suspect on both sides.
They jam everything.
GPS is jammed, but also communications is jammed.
So normal drones don't work.
So the Ukrainians have taken cheap drones and added additional antennas.
One of the things that I learned was something called a kamikaze drone, which is a $400 Chinese drone that carries a small payload.
It moves so fast you can't shoot it down.
I had thought that that was the innovation of the war.
Two generals yesterday told me that I'm wrong and that what they really need are cruise missile drones, which can go really far with wings and can carry more payloads.
I don't think the Ukrainian drone strategy is completely formed, but they're building a completely new theory of war.
Ah!
A completely new theory of war!
Yes!
Drone warfare, people!
And this is where we get to the solution.
For you, the only way the Ukrainians can break through these lines is with massive numbers of drones.
Massive number of drones or massive number of human casualties on both sides.
The beauty of the drone is it can take out the other side's military target without collateral damage.
Right?
We are very concerned about the propagation of this war against other countries, but I'm very concerned about its effect on civilians, both the Russians and the Ukrainians.
The important thing about a drone is it's a very, very targeted solution.
It's very inexpensive.
I think the goal that we should have for Ukraine is to establish the principle that there will never be another land war where you can invade successfully.
That respecting the sovereignty of the land is important.
If you're mad at them, that's fine.
You can negotiate, you can put pressure, but you can't send artillery and flatten cities, which is what the Russians have been doing.
How do you get to the solution?
Can the Ukrainians produce hundreds of thousands of drones?
They have the money and they have the talent.
They haven't figured out how to build all the factories yet.
And they have to be built in Ukraine for many, many reasons.
60 companies that are building these types of drones.
What's interesting is it's just like startups in the sense that they're not particularly well-coordinated.
They're moving so quickly.
Remember, this is all a year old.
Their operating systems and software aren't very integrated.
They can't speak to each other.
All the problems that you would imagine.
Now, if it were peacetime, you'd have an overall strategy.
You'd get them organized and so forth.
What's interesting to me is that this is both a broadband war, but it's also a technology war in the sense that it's innovative.
And innovation occurs in small companies, not in the MOD.
There you go!
So Eric Schmidt is going to go in, he's going to get all these companies going, 60 companies, and get all the factories going.
It's going to be drone warfare of little stupid drones over this five-mile, what is it, this piece of land which will be the demilitarized drone land.
Filled with cluster munitions.
And as he just said, everything else is fine on the other side.
Nothing's wrong on the other side of that.
It's just this little bit.
And so they brought him in.
Hey, Schmidt, you do the drone stuff over there in Ukraine.
We're going to move to Africa with the real stuff.
Well, that was a depressing clip.
Whenever Schmidt shows up, you know you're going to get depressed.
What are you going to do?
What can you say?
Well, for one thing, he's at base a Silicon Valley guy, period.
He's not a war guy.
He's not a Defense Department guy.
He's not a strategic guy.
He's not an ex-general.
He's not anything like that.
He's just a guy who does startups, and that's what he's talking about.
He wants to be in on the action.
When they, when this whole thing ends and a body, God knows how, when it's going to end, but it's going to end eventually.
And then when they do the rebuilding, he's going to have a toehold in that part of it, which is free money.
Yeah.
Well, they already have the money.
He just said it.
They already have the money.
Good to go.
And I have no, I have not heard this notion that a hundred thousand drones Because these drones are set off in... The Russian ones are set off in packs of five, I think.
And they, you know, maybe there'd be 40 at a time, but hundreds of thousands of these?
No, no, there's no, nobody's building that many.
If you, the newsletter brought the drone thing in a long essay about three, four newsletters ago when the Iranian structure for drone manufacturing was revealed with pictures and everything.
And there's no evidence of these kinds of numbers.
Anyway, to wrap this all up, as you pointed out, this whole grain problem is because the UN, because the UN tried to put this deal together, they promised things, they said, all right, we'll get your ammonia pipeline back up, we'll connect one of your banks to SWIFT, and they didn't do it.
No, they didn't do it on purpose.
Yeah, and meanwhile, they're down there in Africa, getting ready, ramping up, Which is really hard for us, because we know a lot about stuff, but man, Africa, that's a tough one.
So we're going to need a lot of help from producers.
We're not going to get it.
We have so few African listeners.
Well, should we just pack it in then?
Is that what you're saying?
Yeah, the show's over.
We have to finalize it after the next episode.
And with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage.
Say good morning to you, the man who put the C in the Chinese Millennials.
Ladies and gentlemen, say hello to my friend on the other end, the one and only Mr. John Cena!
In the morning, to Mr. Adam Curry, all ships, seaboats, and raffia in the air, subs in the water, to the dames and the knights out there.
Yes.
Knights out there.
In the morning, to the trolls.
Hold on, hold on a second.
Trolls, stand still!
Troll count.
It's impossible to count these trolls.
It's impossible to count these trolls.
2323.
23-23 today.
That's pretty good.
I think it's normal.
It's on par.
It's probably about 23 above.
Well, we probably lost a few people when we went off the air.
It didn't help.
We had a little crash beforehand.
Just a little crash.
Stuff does happen.
The Trolls are listening live, and they got a real dose of it today because, you know, we started the show seven minutes into it, things crashed, and then they had to wait around and wait for stuff to happen.
They were listening to Bemro, I think it was Bemro, and who else is on there?
Rock and roll.
Yeah, we got the bluegrass show in the morning, even before that.
Yes.
Trolls, if you want to join them, you can do that by going to trollroom.io, noagendastream.com, or get a modern podcast app at podcastapps.com.
That will give you All of your podcasts, it's the same as where you can get all of your, you can import from your legacy podcast app, but you'll get new features, 25 new features, in fact, including the great new lit systems where you get a bat signal when, when we go live and other shows go live.
All of Noah Jenner's stream is basically using these apps.
So you might want to be a part of that.
And you get the troll room and you get, you get the stream.
And of course you also get the podcast there in regular fashion.
So, we recommend that.
Also, we recommend that you follow us on our Mastodon site, which is noagendasocial.com.
Follow Adam at noagendasocial.com, John C. Dvorak at noagendasocial.com.
And, well, so, I saw the meme that you posted in the newsletter.
Yeah?
And exactly as this meme said, I thought it was dumb.
Yeah?
I don't get it.
I do not understand 99% of memes are just dumb.
At which you've just proved the point of the meme.
I know, but it's not funny.
Shouldn't the meme be funny?
You know what, a meme is basically diarrhea for the illiterate.
It's not a one-liner.
It's not like, you know, Penny Youngman material.
Memes are diarrhea for the illiterate.
That's what that is.
I think before you go on about any of this, I think we should hear from Claire Daly while we still have some listeners that might be amenable to her pitch.
In the morning, if you truly cared about media deconstruction and about John and Adam, you'd be pushing value for value.
If everyone listening would do a sustaining donation, it'd be champagne all around.
Thank you for your courage.
Thank you for your courage.
Claire Daly, everybody.
Hey, even the socialists listen to us now.
Must be doing something right.
Value for value.
Value for value.
If you cared.
If you cared.
Thank you for your courage.
Beautiful.
Thank you, Claire.
We appreciate that.
Yes, that is the model that we follow, where we give you the show for free.
Yeah, you can listen to it as much as you want.
You can share it with anybody.
There's no restrictions, no paywalls, no subscriptions, no Patreon, no things to hop over, stoop under, don't have to have ad blockers.
There's no ads at all.
All we ask for is that you return some value in time, talent and treasure.
Quick note I want to share.
There's some pitch, pitch maniacs on LinkedIn.
They keep pitching me to We should be using them as consultants.
Oh!
So we can do premium content.
Premium content?
Well, we do premium content twice a week.
There you go.
And we do a Netflix season's worth, six hours, more than six hours.
That's what we do.
According to them, we're throwing money away.
Well, that may be the case, but we are doing what we want to do and the Value for Value allows us to do that.
Like Sir Bemrose, you know, he runs all of the stream.
We've got Boyd Zero running all of the infrastructure.
We've got Sir Daniel, our knight, doing knight stuff over at noagendameetups.com.
We've got our artist, which I'll get to in a moment.
I want to read a note from Matt.
He says, I want to let you know how much I cherish the show, Ronk, which was a couple episodes ago, was seriously off the charts good.
I've been too busy with my new business to do art, so I'm switching gears for a bit and doing a monthly donation to share some of my recently mined treasure.
See, this is what I'm talking about.
Here's the guy who gets it.
Time, talent, treasure.
I can't deliver my talent right now, so I'm going to give you some treasure instead.
What are you drinking?
Ah, it turns out I found another can of this bubbly, B-U-B-L-Y Boublé.
Oh, the Boublé stuff?
Yeah, the Boublé stuff.
Yeah, that's been doctored.
So on that tip, as Value for Value, we love our artists who return value every single show to us.
They are listening live and they are creating artwork that we can use right after the show is done so we can upload it for millions to download and find it in their podcast app.
I'm banning this practice.
It's taking too long.
We thank Matadat.
Has Matadat had any artwork chosen previously?
I do not believe so.
No, I don't think so.
I think not.
But Matadat has been doing artwork.
For a while.
Yeah, and some of it quite good.
Yeah, but just hasn't had a win, and now we argued quite a bit over what to choose.
This was a very hard piece to pick.
It was.
This was Spot the Spook, and it showed a whole bunch of stick figure kind of, I'd say almost like Playmobil type people, and one of them did not have pants on.
And that of course was expertly weaseled in there based upon the conversation we heard from the CIA spook podcast where they said that people these days are so distracted by their phones that we can change our pants, take our pants off in public.
That was great.
So we figured... This piece was up against, what was it, you had like something else better.
Uh, well, we had to excoriate because there was, uh, some issues with, uh... Oh, yes, uh, uh, Paul Couture, as a matter of fact.
Yes.
Paul Couture had, where was it?
Well he had the not-Curry-not-Dvorak, it was just, I don't know what his, I didn't know, he wasn't the one we were scoring.
Well first of all, the one that we actually came close to choosing because of its simplicity and beauty and laugh factor was Bobby the Op.
From Dame Kenny, Ben.
Yes, we almost picked that piece.
I still laugh when I see it.
It's a throwback piece to the old piece years and years ago we had a piece that one which was George and I'm sorry Jeb Bush with these glasses on and big giant eyeballs.
Yes, now the one that I wanted which we did not choose was from Correct the Record.
It was CIA in Africa and the reason we didn't choose it Is because the name tag, the badge that the spook is wearing there in Africa... It's unreadable.
It's unreadable, with the incredibly racist depiction of... That's the piece, that's the one we had to excoriate.
...of savages.
Because of course in Africa there's only savages with spears and shields.
Yes, and only spears.
That wasn't a problem for us.
No, the problem... No, that's fine.
The problem was the Spook's name tag was too small.
I said not CIA.
Now I picked, I wanted to bring this up, Darren O'Neill did a piece of...
I used it for the newsletter because I thought it was kind of a nice piece, but that reeks of mid-journey.
I mean, reeks of it.
Oh, Darren's piece?
Yeah.
So I don't understand what Darren is doing by doing AI art, which is what this... because we know Darren's skill set and his limitations.
This is not it.
This is nothing like Darren could possibly do in a million years.
No.
Even with clip art.
And he submitted a cheesecake piece, which was typical Darren.
Which was good.
The cheesecake was good, but the fact was it was AI.
Yeah.
Still nice.
How many fingers does she have?
Let me see.
No, Mid-Journey doesn't make that mistake.
Mid-Journey makes that mistake, too.
No, I've never seen a Mid-Journey piece that has ten fingers or anything.
It's Dolly and some of the other ones that really can't do fingers.
But it really, it just had no humor.
It just didn't, it was just cheesecake.
Yeah, it was just a cheesecake.
It was just a girl.
Just cheesecake.
A lot of Barbie stuff, no, no, no.
They're getting enough publicity.
Yeah.
Bill Gates and Anthony Weiner was cute, but no, no, no, no.
Yeah, Barbie stuff, no.
No, the closest, what came close was the racist A depiction of the spook in Africa.
We couldn't read his sign.
And Bobby the Op was funny.
It was simplistically some funny.
But it came very close.
But we congratulate MetaDot for being the selected art for episode 1574.
If you're using one of those modern podcast apps, you'll see the artwork changing during the show.
It's really cool if you're using that in the car.
The artwork will change if you're using The Android Auto or CarPlay you'll see that on your dashboard, and it'll give you another chuckle Just an extra dimension so many cool things and of course you can always follow along at noagendaartgenerator.com you can follow along live and Obviously you can upload yourself and participate.
Thank you to all of our artists.
We really appreciate you.
Thank you for delivering us fantastic time and talent as always now to the treasure We thank our first and top executive producer for episode 1575, coming to us from Texas, from San Antone, Eric Reinhart, $1,000.
And he says, Adam and John, this is my first time donating, so please de-douche me!
You've been de-douched.
He says, y'all's bitching during the donation segment in episode 1573 was the kick in the butt I needed.
Whoever said complaining never gets you anything?
I don't think we were complaining.
I think we're laying out our case for value for value.
I mean, if you want, it's a little different than complaining or bitching.
We never complain.
No, we're just telling you like it is.
We're transparent.
We give you everything.
We tell you right here.
We tell you what comes in.
You can count it yourself.
You'd be surprised.
You'd be surprised when we only have five or six executive producers.
You know?
This is all we do.
And we're happy to do it.
We had one.
We had one.
It's true.
We had one.
Now, does he not become a knight today?
Does he have no request for knighting or anything of the kind?
Let me see, we have... He even asked, he said, yeah, he got the de-douching, so this means his first donation.
He didn't ask, we'll wait for him to come back and tell us.
Okay.
All right.
He's not listed as a knight.
I'm with Michael Pierce in Aurora, Colorado.
A nice place, no note, so give him his 80108.
is 80108.
You've got karma.
So I'm thinking 80108 is the donation for a guy with big tits.
I I do not, I despise that word.
Boobs is okay, tits is just, it's so crass.
It's the right name.
That is the doctor's name, that's what they call him.
Doctors, they call them breasts.
You're kidding me.
Anonymous in Katy, Texas comes in with... What doctor do you go to?
Really?
Okay.
It reminds me of the joke.
I won't do that, the joke.
The Pope, the blind Pope joke.
Everyone knows the punchline.
Anonymous in Katy, Texas, $600, says Anonymous.
So give the double up karma for them.
Okay, oops.
The he or she.
Yes, the he or she.
Here we go.
You've got karma.
All right, then we go to the big blowout here.
Sir 1% of the GTFO, he's from Dixie, Washington, and he comes in with 45678.
We do like that.
And this change, it bumps him up to Barron and he requests, screw your freedom, no, and whoop him with the Constitution because it's simply impossible for there to be too much goat.
Goat scream karma for all.
In the morning, gents!
I am back with more treasure with this donation of four, five, six, seven, eight.
I've become a Baron.
Ain't that great?
Now that I've launched my rap career on no agenda, but I'm thinking that I should keep a day job.
I request to be named the Baron of the Free Republic of Liberland.
Contrary to the information put forth on air my last producer note became a train wreck, Liberland has nothing to do with Washington State where I presently live.
It is nestled in between Serbia and Croatia on the Danube River, on land that is not claimed by either country.
How about that?
I didn't know this.
I thought he was talking about Libs.
Libs in Washington State, which is loaded with them.
Our relations with our neighbors are becoming friendlier all the time.
Our passport is gaining recognition internationally as a valid travel document and permanent settlement of our land has recently begun.
Hold on a second.
Can we get passports to this country?
Get us some passports, dude.
Yeah, we'd love to become citizens.
Our motto is live and let live.
Our government is constitutionally kept lean and limited through a combination of strictly voluntary taxes.
That's my kind of taxes!
It may not take on debt and it's allowed one job only, the protection of the right to one's private property and whatever they might do with it, of which the most precious is an individual's own life.
You could say that we whoop them with the Constitution!
The one thing that we're building is really starting to happen, so I'm encouraging all freedom-loving Gitmo Nation inmates to check us out, get involved, and even become one of us!
Faithfully suppressing your exit strategy one percent at a time.
Well, I'm interested!
I would like some more information about this, and thank you for your courage.
Screw your freedom!
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Get out there.
Whooping, whooping, whooping. Whooping, whooping, whooping. Whooping with the Constitution.
You've got.
I like it.
I'm liking that Biden no-no-no.
Yeah, it's good, right?
Sir Silver Dude of the Silver Dolphins in Eldersburg, Maryland comes in with 450 bucks.
And he says, ITM, forgive me for I have... Forgive me for I have douched.
Last donation was in October.
I just heard episode 1573 with the lack of donors and realized I can't let the show fall flat again.
Keep up the great work, Viscount Sir Silverdude of the Silver Dolphins.
Beautiful, ma'am.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Brian Wolfe, Dix Hills, New York, 333.33.
Dear John and Adam, I apologize for the length of my last note from Show 1574.
Second consecutive 333.33 donation and one more coming on my way to knighthood.
Thank you for your courage.
If I can get a China is Asshole and a Huntsman, that would be awesome.
Yes, I think I can do both of those for you.
China is asshole!
There you go.
I'm Kevin Willis in Arlington, Tennessee.
3-3-3-3-3.
Love the show.
I've been listening off and on since the show numbers were in the low 50s.
I've never donated.
As a dollar per hour of listening pleasure, I have to owe at least 10 grand.
Good luck getting that out of me.
So here's 33333 as a token of my esteem.
No jingles, but I've been married for 30 years now, so if I can have some getting laid karma, I'll take it.
P.S.
There's somebody out there listening right now who has been listening for 10 years, maybe from the beginning, and like me, has never donated.
I'm just letting that person know it's time.
You've got the cash.
You can be an executive producer, maybe for the next show.
Do it!
P.P.S.
I'm not asking for a de-douchin' as given how much I've listened, how much I've paid.
I'm really still a douchebag.
I've made my peace with it.
You've got karma.
We go to Swamp Scott, Massachusetts.
333.33, Julian Erikson, Adam and John.
This donation is an additional request for another Big Deal Karma!
Alright, was that a special... was that a special thing?
For him.
I just want to make sure I'm not missing something.
We got a new one, by the way.
Someone gave me a jingle that I want to let people hear.
Someone gave me a new karma jingle to share with the group.
You've got a little bit of chicken tumour.
Karma.
Porky pig karma.
I don't know what that is.
Sir BK of the PNW in Camas, Washington. 333.33.
Uh, dear John and Adam, uh, although I took advantage of the episode 1500 matching donation credit to become a knight, I hadn't yet felt I completely earned it.
This donation does legitimately put me over the thousand dollar mark and I feel whole now.
Tuesday I leave on my dream trip to my ancestral homeland of Lithuania.
Just missing the NATO summit by a couple of weeks, but more importantly missing the upcoming Vilnius meetup by a month.
Wish I could have timed it better.
Shout out to my Lithuanian neighbor, friend and fellow No Agenda listener Luana who hit Who I hit in the mouth soon after discovering Noah Jenna back in 2020.
Her husband, William, has been instrumental in helping me track down my real family name and the village that my great-granddad came from.
I'm forever grateful.
Since episode 1,500 nighting had to be briefed due to the heavy volume of donations, I would like to request Lithuanian cuisine in honor of my upcoming trip to Salt Bar Bartschiel.
I don't know how to even pronounce that.
Salt, Bar Seal, Capilini, and Canapines Beer at the round table.
I'd love an L Sharpton, Respect, Resist, Remuch, and a John C. Dvorak Scary Donate.
Thanks for all you do, Sir BK of the PNW.
So, how am I, I mean, he's clearly just doing that just to trip us up.
What, Salty Bar Seal?
Salty Bar-seal?
Salty Bar-seal?
No, not... Salty Bar-sai, Seppelinai, and Canna-penis beer.
All right.
All right, all right, all right.
Could be some cuss words in Lithuanian we're unfamiliar with.
Probably.
But resist, we must.
That's exactly what's going on there.
We must, and we will much about that be committed.
I-E-S-P-I-C-T.
You've got...
Donate! Donate! Donate!
Karma.
And we move over to Anonymous Controller.
We just heard his kids at the beginning of the show!
Oh goodness, how did I miss this?
Pasta Glock.
What is that called?
It's locked and loaded.
No, it's a... No, it's a... It's a Noodle Boy thing.
Noodle Karma, that's what it is.
I'll read this.
All we want to hear is Pasta Glock and JCD's Hot Pockets, which I don't think exists.
We listen as a family throughout the week as evidenced by our 9 and 11 year olds rendition of the show's introduction.
We played that earlier.
Keep up the good work.
We've written in a couple of times, but I've always failed to mention that we live 20 minutes north of JCD's favorite town, Gnawbone, Indiana.
Thanks for all you do.
Anonymous Controller.
I can't find this thing.
It's not called... It's not called Noodle Boy Karma.
It's called something else.
I got my pasta glack locked and loaded!
That's the one!
Yeah.
Is it Noodle Gun, maybe?
Maybe it was Noodle Gun.
Noodle Gun, that's got to be it.
Noodle Gun... Uh... Oh, I'm so... Ugh, I'm so stuck on this.
This is bad.
Noodle...
Oh, here we go.
Ah!
I found it.
I'm gonna shoot you in the face with my noodle gun, you racist piece of shit.
I got my pasta glock locked and loaded.
Hot pockets.
Yeah, I found that one.
Alright, Candace May, Nelson Beachy, Candanavia.
Hello!
I'd like to dedicate this donation to my husband, Craig Seedhouse.
How about that?
That's a fun name.
Okay, let me make that switch right now.
I love the name Seed House.
Yes.
If only we all could be a Seed House.
Craig Seed House.
He has been a regular listener for years, and while he already donates monthly for his birthday, Monday, July 24th, I wanted to give him the gift of being an executive producer to the best podcast in the universe.

That's why the Durham Report put it right in there.
It's record-setting.
It is record-setting.
The Durham Report said it's the best in the universe.
You can look it up.
But it's, I mean, there's so much stuff that we've talked about.

A year or two ago, I have enjoyed your show ever since, and I'm happy to be a producer.
As a bonus for you both, my daughter is a nun in traditional Latin mass order.
I have asked her to pray for you both as I have written to her about your work to help weed through the lies.
Well, thank you!
No karma, but please, I'd like one... Wait!
If she's traditional Latin mass, it must be the poor girl is a terrorist!
What are you talking about?
Yeah, he knows what I'm talking about.
Really?
The government, our government, our Department of Justice has determined that anyone who's into the traditional Catholic old-fashioned mass, which is the best product there is, by the way, as a lapsed Catholic, I can say that.
It's an outstanding product, I hear.
It's an outstanding product, but if you're into that, then you're no good.
You're a terrorist.
It's a That commentary by our Justice Department is a crime against the humanity, to be honest about it.
They should be rousted.
When did they pronounce the case?
Somebody in the chat room knows.
This has got to be about two or three months ago.
Is it like a small batch deal these nuns are doing?
What is this?
No, it's a large movement in the church.
They're sick of this English mass.
Even, by the way, Void Zero is a traditionalist like that.
Yes he is, yes he is.
By the way, coincidentally, also a terrorist.
I mean, so, there you go.
Yeah, that could be true.
In his own way.
Well, thank you very much.
We appreciate the prayers.
No karma, please, but I'd like one of the Reverend Al Litney's.
Thank you.
God bless you both.

Oh man, this is good.
Jamie Palacios, Clifton, Virginia, 210.

I presume he wants to de-douching?
I would say so.
Makes sense.
You've been de-douched.
Thank you for this amazing show.
May I ask for Jobs Karma as I'm looking for my next opportunity?
Thank you, but of course you can ask for that.
Hold on a second.

This really must be working for Linda.
It must be.
I mean, she's running a streak here.
This is like the 10th time or something.
Ever since the time that she tried to slip one through with a $55 donation, she's back on track.
That's right.
And then Matthew Gill in Raleigh, North Carolina, 183... Rod, don't forget Sir C. C Sharp.
Oh, I'm sorry.

And get on No Agenda Social, people.
Or at least post something to Adam at noagendasocial.com or John C. Dvorak at noagendasocial.com.
We will boost it.
You don't have to be on No Agenda Social to post.
That's the beauty of the decentralized Mastodon Fediverse.
And thank you all very much for supporting the best podcast in the universe.
These are executive and associate executive producers.
These are credits that are real and they are valid anywhere credits are accepted.

Just a thought there.
You could put it on your IMDB.
You can open and start an IMDB with these credits.
And if you'd like to learn more about it, go to vorac.org.
And thank you once again to all of our executive and associate executive producers of 1575!
Our formula is this.
We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
Sorry, meant to goat that.
Meant to goat it.
There we go.
Goat.
I've goated it.
So I ran into a... I rarely see MSNBC, but I did run into a Nicole Wallace piece.
Oh man, I try to run away from that.
She is so bad.
She's not only bad, she's looking bad.
She's starting to look haggard.
Yeah!
Which is something that women do not like.
By the way, we're only saying that as television producers.
We have experience.
We've been in the business.
We know what works.
We know what doesn't work.
We've never made women twirl around for us, but we do know.
Yet.
She needs to fix her teeth.
It's time now.
And I can speak to this.
She needs to fix her teeth.
And the hairdo has got to change.
I'm thinking a bob.
I'm thinking a bald cut, personally.
Well, that'll be after, you know, everything happens and we shave her head.
So there's a bunch of just errors and she's not using the right words.
I'll give some of it away as we go, but she's also very bigoted in the way she presents everything.
So let's listen to her.
Hold on, let's just straight up tell people that she used to be communications director or spokeshole for the Republican Party under Bush.
I believe so.
I believe under Bush.
Will you look it up?
I could.
She is now a die-hard Democrat, MSNBC... A hater!
hater.
She's a hater.
And that's this.
Here's some hate right at the beginning.
She's going to have Eric Holder on, who knows nothing about anything, but she's bringing him on anyway, the hate together, hate together.
And here's her intro.
Listen to this.
I want to ask you what it is like for the men and women working at the department to see one of their leaders, Jack Smith, targeted and threatened by Donald Trump and his allies.
And And I'm sure you and I have both been attacked over Twitter by the twice-indicted, twice-impeached ex-president.
We should also mention that Eric Holder was attorney general, famously corrupt attorney general under President Obama.
Yeah, and he was part of Fast and Furious and the gun running and the whole thing.
And lying.
And lying.
And he's a liar.
He's a liar.
Well, the thing about this, though, is she has to put in twice indicted, twice impeached.
Yeah, that's what you do.
Blah, blah, blah, okay.
That's like you saying to me, you're twice divorced.
I've never said that.
No, of course not.
You would never say that because you're not a hater like Nicole Wallace.
Good phrase, though.
Now, here we go.
Now, listen to this clip.
I have a sub clip highlighting it.
She uses the wrong word.
She's trying to say condemn, but she says condone.
Which one do you want me to play?
The sub clip?
No, play two.
The big one.
The sub clip is the short one.
That just highlights it.
The other one is in context.
I think there's something that people don't understand that your family worries and there is a destabilizing nature to being targeted by the leader of that movement, leader of the right, a party that doesn't quickly condone violence, that doesn't quickly condone anti-semitism, that doesn't quickly condone racism.
There is something, again this is where the right is onto a set of tools that more closely approximate an autocrat's tool She's a bonehead.
She's a bonehead, yes.
And she won't say Republican Party because she knows that she's bigoted as it is.
But now here's the sub clip so everyone can remember what she said.
Listen to the stupidity of these comments.
Leader of the right, a party that doesn't quickly condone violence, that doesn't quickly condone anti-semitism, that doesn't quickly condone racism.
Now, at any point did you hear, Nicole, that's condemned?
That's condemned?
Could you correct yourself, please?
Because she's being sabotaged.
She's being sabotaged.
If they didn't correct her on that from the control room, that's sabotage.
I think they're asleep in the control room.
That's sabotage.
But yes, they wouldn't quickly condone racism like the Democrats would.
Exactly.
Well, as we say, what the heart is full of, the mouth overflows with.
And there's a Dutch phrase for that.
Yeah.
Waar het hart van vol is, daar loopt de mond van over.
Ja.
Ja.
Nick is, yeah.
Nicole Wallace with Holder, clip three.
Here we go with a WTF clip.
What is available to them or how they are at this moment, this unprecedented moment where they've charged an ex-president and they seem to be on the precipice of charging him again.
Yeah, I mean, this is something that, you know, has to have an impact on people within the department.
These are strong folks, and, you know, they're used to being criticized, but the level of criticism that you see here, the unfounded levels of criticism that you see here, are really kind of unprecedented.
And so that's why, as I said earlier, I hope that those people who are right-minded will come to the defense of the people in the Bureau, the defense of people at the Justice Department, and understand that these personal attacks on Jack Smith and other people, you know, I remember when after The court authorized search of the Mar-a-Lago residence.
The names and the addresses of the agent who actually conducted that search were publicized.
And shortly thereafter, a person decided to attack the FBI office in Cincinnati.
Wait.
What?
So a bunch of Florida FBI guys supposedly got outed.
Yeah.
Which I didn't hear about.
Dangerously so.
I didn't hear about this.
I know about the Cincinnati office, but I never heard about a public ...reveal of these guys' home addresses, and what's that got to do with the office in Cincinnati?
And why doesn't he mention Brett Kavanaugh, whose house, his personal residence, was actually attacked by a bunch of left-wing lunatics?
That's whataboutism, John.
That's a false equivalency.
Never mentions that, does he?
Of course not.
Why would he?
So here we go with the final clip on this group.
So there are real world consequences for this and you put people's lives at risk for no good reason.
Now, you know, people who sign up for to work for the FBI understand that they're putting their lives at risk and they can, you know, face all kinds of life and death situations, but not these kinds of life and death situations that are perpetrated by people who are former government officials generally and formulated by people or by a person who was the former president of the United States.
This is something, again, unprecedented, something that we should not accept, and something that we have to push back against.
What about Kavanaugh?
Unprecedented.
Unprecedented for FBI, perhaps.
I liked your newsletter analysis of Bobby the Op and what went down with this censorship hearing in the House of Representatives.
Yeah.
You want to reiterate that for a moment?
Well, there was a... In fact, I think I have a clip.
It's not a Kennedy clip, but it's a clip about the hearings.
Let's see if we can find it.
Yeah, talk into the mic, though, because you're kind of dropping out a little bit.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Again, the mic has moved.
You didn't notice it.
I'm going to move it back.
Don't freak out.
That mic is moving!
It's a moving mic!
Uh, let's see, does that sound better?
Yeah, yeah, now we can at least hear you now, you're here.
Welcome, welcome, welcome to the show.
Uh, where is this thing?
I have some clips on it, if you can't find it.
Uh, I can't find it, but let me, I'll tell you what the deal is.
So there was this hearing out of the blue with Kennedy coming in to talk about censorship, and they of course tried to censor the hearing.
Hilarious.
Which is what the clip's about.
And I believe the whole thing was scripted.
And I believe Debbie Wasserman Schultz had the script.
She couldn't barely read it.
And it got him outraged and the whole thing was designed to get him attention.
I'm going to agree with you on this because they also put the heat-seeking missile, the Dumbo nobody cares about because she doesn't have a vote, the representative from the Virgin Islands.
Yeah, what's she doing there?
Well, she's great.
Well, first of all, she's black.
So that Stacy Plaskett is who we're talking about.
So that's, you know, you can't, she's got special privilege.
Oh here, I got my clips.
I found them.
Okay.
This is Jeffrey Tucker discussing, and Jeffrey Tucker is one of the talking heads that the NTD brings on.
He's the head of some think tank, and it's pretty good.
This is good.
Jeffrey Tucker, good to see you again!
It's a pleasure to be here.
Thank you so much.
Jeffrey, some Democrats signed a letter calling for RFK Jr.' 's testimony to be cancelled.
Tell us about that.
Well, it was actually just an epic moment in history to see him there.
And I knew this was coming, I guess, two weeks ago, and I've been a little bit mum about it.
Because what was that?
I know!
It's the silliest laugh.
So he says, I've been a little bit mum about it?
Ha ha!
That's creepy.
Yeah, he's keeping a secret.
Uh... This is N.T.D.
Uh, and I knew this was coming, I guess, you know, two weeks ago when I'd been a little bit mum about it.
Haha.
Dude, dude, I have to question this guy right away.
Because I had a feeling it was gonna be like this, but sure enough, uh, so they, Democrats signed a letter trying, you know, denouncing him as- Wait a minute.
So, we need to know where this guy is from because if he knew it, that means he must have informed people that it was coming.
He must have informed...
That's what it sounds like.
If he was informed that was coming, or he knew something was up.
If he knew it was coming, then he might have informed some political people.
I don't know, it's just interesting.
Because I had a feeling it was going to be like this, but sure enough, so they, Democrats, signed a letter denouncing him as an anti-Semite, which is the most absurd charge, and sure enough, right out of the bat, immediately, the Democrats passed, or tried to rally around a move to go to executive session, which is to say, They wanted to go to a secret session not available to the public so the public couldn't see it.
So in other words, they're trying to censor the hearing on censorship.
I have to say, if people have a watch, they should go to Epoch and watch the whole thing.
People need to see it because it's odd.
I had forgotten that it was possible to make Good points and good sense and rational arguments inside science within the halls of Congress.
We've gotten used to what a clown show it is.
He showed them up.
Interesting.
He explained that the First Amendment is really the foundation of all the rest of our liberties.
He described it as the fertilizer of the water and the sun to democracy.
But he said without that sort of open openness, that all of our rights become in danger.
And he said it leads to dystopia and totalitarianism.
Here's the thing that I started realizing as I was listening to this hearing.
The censorship has been so extreme and so tight.
A lot of us who were dissenters at all the COVID crackdowns and even on the Biden laptop and everything else, we might have been in the overwhelming majority the entire time.
But because of the censorship, we were made to feel isolated and strange and like a persecuted group of dissenters.
Not even a group, a lot of us just felt I like that analysis.
Now we realize, looking back, that was all intentional.
That was the goal, was to drive us out of the public debate in a quasi-martial law style censorship.
I like that analysis.
Yes, and it goes well with what you said, that this hearing was scripted to a degree that that censorship thing would come up, but also as an actual, perhaps even a stress test from the real movers but also as an actual, perhaps even a stress test from the real movers and shakers in the Democratic Party to see if Kennedy can really Yeah, there's definitely elements.
The stress test is on.
We only have, I mean, it's a year away, the election, but the real thing, it all begins pretty much the beginning of next year with these primaries and Kennedy's got to have turned around.
I mean, I had the dinner table conversation with the kids and they all think Kennedy's a conspiracy theorist.
So that That image of him has been put in play and it's working well so far.
Well, of course it's always helped by the Kennedy family themselves.
Tonight, one of America's most famous families engaged in a very public feud.
Hi.
I'm Jack Schlossberg, and I have something to say.
Jack Schlossberg, the grandson of President John F. Kennedy and the son of Caroline Kennedy, taking to Instagram to speak out against his relative, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Let's not be distracted again by somebody's vanity project.
He's trading in on Camelot, celebrity, conspiracy theories, and conflict for personal gain and fame.
He's not alone.
RFK Jr.' 's sister, Kerry Kennedy, and nephew, former Congressman Joe Kennedy, have condemned the remarks.
And now Republicans are using his rhetoric as a tool to attack the Biden administration on Capitol Hill.
You are slandering me, incorrectly, and saying it's dishonest.
RFK Jr.
rejects the idea that his views are racist or anti-Semitic.
But members of his family are backing away and putting their support behind Biden's re-election.
The Kennedy family has a deep relationship with the Bidens.
Joe Biden served with Ted Kennedy and the Senate for decades and appointed several Kennedys to administration posts.
You know, this is a 19 year old.
Is he 19?
I think he's 19.
When was he born?
I think he's 19.
93.
When was he born?
93.
No, he's 30.
But when he was 19?
This is what you say to yourself with your head held high.
This kid's projecting.
Really?
Who's projecting?
Which kid?
This Schlossberg kid.
Oh, the Schlossberg kid is on it.
Again, I suspect a script involved.
No projecting at all.
In October 2015, after graduating from Yale, which, gee, if you're maybe related to the Kennedys, you get in there, he started working at a Japanese internet e-commerce company in Tokyo.
Of course, why not?
In 2016, he worked as a staff assistant at the Bureau of Oceans and International Environmental and Scientific Affairs, part of the U.S.
Department of State.
Gee, you think that he's trading off of the Kennedy name?
I think he's a spook.
He attended the Medal of Freedom Award dinner to commemorate the 50th anniversary of his grandfather's death?
Come on, kid.
So, Anderson Cooper had the main actor on his show.
Stacey Plaskett, the representative from the Virgin Islands, who was just... I mean, the thing she was saying was, it was... I mean, she could go work for NPR.
She's so bigoted.
And so actually, Anderson Cooper did a pretty good job.
He gives us some of the clips from the hearing, and he's got her on, and so this is a nice little series.
Democrat Stacey Plaskett is the ranking member of the Subcommittee on Weaponization of the Federal Government, which held the hearing today.
She pushed back on the comments you heard Kennedy make prior to the hearing that COVID was ethnically targeted.
These are individuals who would bring a witness who's promoted a video that compared the COVID vaccine to the Tuskegee trials.
The Tuskegee trials were a very difficult time in black America, where individuals who were already sick with a disease were then reviewed, experimented on who already had a disease to see how far that disease went.
And making the comparison that manipulates and preys on black people's feelings about the atrocities of the past in order to prevent them from seeking life-saving vaccines in the present.
I mean, this is a conflagration of epic proportions.
It's really unbelievable.
And part of the problem is because that clip, we haven't been able to clean that clip up so you can actually hear what he said.
But he talked about studies that suggest What was wrong with Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
being there today?
Why did it so anger you?
had to apologize for the Tuskegee experiments.
But okay, let's go to the next clip.
What was wrong with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. being there today?
Why did it so anger you or appall you?
I think that what's so upsetting about my Republican colleagues is that they are giving a platform to an individual who is spewing conspiracy theories that are based on quasi-science, on false information.
Who is trying to get individuals pitted against one another, who is trying to deny people life-saving information.
We know that his group, his children's defense group, were the ones who spread information in Minnesota, which led to a rash of measles outbreak.
among the Somali community because they believe that those vaccines were in fact harmful to them.
These are the kinds of things that Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
is doing and he's using his family's name as a shield to be able to reach him and let individuals know that this is not who his father was, this is not who his uncles were, and we need to stop giving him the credibility that they had because this guy He's not safe for the American people.
The things that he says is going to get us all in trouble.
He's not safe!
He's not brand safe for the American people.
Now, taking into account we believe that Bobby the K is an op, Bobby the Op, by the CIA, what better place to have Ms.
Plaskett on than former CIA employee Anderson Cooper?
To keep running the test, the stress test, will Bobby the Op be able to stand up to it?
Well, what happens with the stress test is you get new information comes to light.
New shit comes to light.
And so now they have to deal with the Somalia measles outbreak, so let's put that on the list of things to fix.
And we have one more clip!
I want to play another part of the hearing where you called out your Republican colleagues for inviting him.
They intentionally chose to elevate this rhetoric to give these harmful, dangerous views a platform in the halls of the United States Congress.
I mean, she is obviously reading.
Let's just call it what it is.
This is not an outraged person who has something to say.
She's an actor.
That's endorsing that speech.
That's not just supporting free speech.
They have co-signed on idiotic, bigoted messaging.
He's also obviously running for president.
How much of that plays into why you think he was invited there today?
Well, we know that Chairman Jordan, my colleague who I sit next to, the chairman, gets his marching orders from Mark Meadows, from Donald Trump, potentially from Speaker McCarthy.
I don't think he has much say in what happens in his conference.
But those are the individuals who are determining that this committee should be used to test run every conspiracy theory that's going to be used in the 2024... Notice how she uses the term test run.
Isn't that interesting?
Who's really test running what, Ms.
Plaskett?
This committee should be used to- Yes?
I was gonna say that, uh, he was brought to the committee because this is a committee on censorship and he was de-platformed, as famous as he is, from YouTube- And Insta!
And Insta during the period of time where his messaging was important.
Yes.
But that's the reason he was there.
He wasn't there to test conspiracy theories.
No, but I think she's saying something here that it's on her mind.
Because, you know, we're doing a test here.
We're doing a stress test.
Well, no, she's got the mind.
You can't get that out of her head.
That's why she said it.
She's a stooge.
Yes.
But those are the individuals who are determining that this committee should be used to test run every conspiracy theory that's going to be used in the 2024 presidential race.
So having an individual who they believe is going to hurt President Biden is something that they're going to amplify and elevate.
We gave information that this individual, there's a super PAC associated with him that is the same super PAC organizers who have been the super PAC for Marjorie Taylor Greene, George Santos, and the failed campaign official, Walker.
He is pushing issues that are going to support the Republican Party.
And what's even more frightening is their whole notion that social media companies, which are private companies, private platforms that are open to public use, should not be checked, should not be looked at, should not be, information should not be looked at them, and it has a chilling effect on these social media companies.
What she's trying to say is, we should control the social media companies.
Instead she says, they should not be looked at... That are open to public use, should not be checked, should not be looked at, should not be... Controlled!
Information should not be... Controlled by the government!
That's exactly what she's trying to say!
She knows she can't say that because that's the wrong thing to say.
She's actually flopping around, she's dog paddling, she doesn't know what to do.
...into public use, should not be checked, should not be looked at, should not be, information should not be looked at them, and it has a chilling effect on these social media companies, and we know that in the run-up to 2020... It has a chilling effect on these social media companies!
How does it have a chilling effect?
She's lying!
She can't say the word censored!
They should be censored!
By the government.
By the government.
By her.
By her and her compadres.
That are open to public use.
Should not be... Free speech!
...checked.
Should not be looked at.
Should not be... Information should not be looked at them.
And it has a chilling effect on these social media companies.
And we know that in the run-up to 2024 elections that Russian trolls, the Chinese, the Iranians are going to be trying to push voter disinformation, trying to suppress the American people from voting.
So she's saying that Bobby the K is being controlled by Russian trolls, Iranians, by the Chinese.
What is she really saying here?
She's this woman.
I have no idea what she's saying.
And this little diddy got no play, but I need to share it with the group.
This is Representative Kat Camach.
I've never even heard of her.
I don't know where she's from, but she went freewheeling!
I have to bring this up, and since the door was opened, you know, I'm deeply concerned about the fact that There were FEC reports brought up.
Mr. Kennedy, you acknowledged that you don't know where those came from.
You said that you have no affiliation with those.
That PAC, that super PAC, I believe, the ranking member said she was deeply concerned about the affiliation.
And we seem to have a guilty by association theme going on here.
And so I just have to state for the record that I myself am deeply concerned about the affiliation of the convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, of which the ranking member took campaign donation money from.
So I think that's the beauty of the First Amendment, is that we have a right to say what we want to say, but we also have the right to be offended.
By the way, I've given up my right to be offended.
I don't know why she said that.
That was very weird.
Very weird.
So then, just to show you that CNN is all over this stress test, we have Dana Bash.
Who's looking better than she used to?
Something, she had some work done.
Yeah, she had some, she had to have some work done because she used to be kind of a bug-eyed alien looking woman.
Yes, maybe it was an eye job, but I think she had an eye job.
Something happened.
Something changed.
And she is going, it's fantastic.
Because they even put a little flash in there.
She is going to show a piece of the incriminating video that we can't actually play a clean copy of because it's so hard to hear, amplified and compressed and everything.
You kind of have to watch it yourself with subtitles.
She's going to show a deceptively edited piece to make her point.
Here we go.
Anti-Semitism.
Racism.
These are the most appalling, disgusting pejoratives, and they're applied to me to silence me.
In my entire life, I have never uttered a phrase that was either racist or anti-Semitic.
They're misrepresentations.
I'm going to ding the bell whenever there's a video edit.
I didn't say those things.
So you just heard it.
Defamation, distortions, misrepresentations, reading between the lines, a citing motive, guilt by association.
That is how RFK Jr.
offers an answer for every accusation.
But believing him that he's just a contrarian, that he never spread hate, requires ignoring his own words.
COVID-19, there's an argument that it is ethnically targeted.
COVID-19 is targeted to attack Caucasians and black people.
The people who are most immune are Ashkenazi Jews and Chinese.
So they took out the piece where he talks about the study that he read.
Just edited that right out!
He's quoting from a study.
Took it right out!
That's the piece they took out.
This is CNN.
She continues, there's more.
Jews and Chinese.
That kind of denial and deflection showing up over and over in this hearing.
Listen to Mr. Kennedy say something that he never said.
Mr. Kennedy, do you think it was easy for Jewish people to escape systematic slaughter of Nazis?
Yes or no?
Absolutely not.
Do you think it was just as hard to wear a mask during COVID as it was to hide under floorboards or false walls so you weren't murdered or dragged to a concentration camp?
Of course not.
That's ridiculous.
That's a comparison that you made.
I did not make that comparison.
Except he did.
Even in Hitler Germany, you could cross the Alps into Switzerland.
You can hide in an attic like Anne Frank did.
Today, the mechanisms are being put in place that will make it so none of us can run and none of us can hide.
So they take a speech from COVID.
This was a setup.
This was a setup by Debbie Wasserman Schultz and CNN.
So that's why she was firing off those questions.
Because they knew... Oh, that was a coordinated effort.
Coordinated effort.
Well, we know we've got that video of him saying this.
That was actually quite good.
I just want to hear that again.
And Danabash, like, look at my eyes.
I've got a nice eye job.
Don't you think it's pretty good?
The people who are most immune are Ashkenazi Jews and Chinese.
That kind of denial and deflection showing up over and over in this hearing.
Listen to Mr. Kennedy say something that he never said.
Mr. Kennedy, do you think it was easy for Jewish people to escape systematic slaughter of Nazis?
Yes or no?
Absolutely not.
Do you think it was just as hard to wear a mask during COVID as it was to hide under floorboards or false walls so you weren't murdered or dragged to a concentration camp?
Of course not.
That's ridiculous.
That's a comparison that you made.
I did not make that comparison.
Okay, so is this a false equivalency?
I want to so what what what is she Debbie Wasserman Schultz?
This woman is amazing.
She's saying, is it just as hard to wear a mask as it is to hide as a Jewish person to the Second World War?
And so she's and he walked into this, of course, walk straight into it.
He could have figured this one out.
Now let's listen to the equivalencies being drawn with this testimony, this speech.
Except he did.
Except he did.
By the way, it should be noted that Dana Bash's form of sarcasm is not, it doesn't work.
I just, people are just Sarcasm doesn't work in news presentations.
It just doesn't.
No, it's very bad form and it's something I don't like about Tucker Carlson when he does it.
Tucker Carlson does it way too much.
Okay, let's go again to the speech.
Even in Hitler Germany, you could cross the Alps into Switzerland.
You can hide in an attic like Anne Frank did.
Today, the mechanisms are being put in place that will make it so none of us can run and none of us can hide.
It's not quite the same thing.
What's it got to do with masking?
Well, because it was about COVID.
So what?
It wasn't about... In fact, what did he even mention COVID in that clip?
I bet you if we go and look at the full clip, that it didn't quite work, so that's why they couldn't play it.
It's unbelievable.
That was a setup.
Very poorly done.
Very poorly done.
Yeah, but it was a setup.
It was weak.
It was weak, and I think this is part of it.
It was a setup.
This is weak, and it shows that CNN's stupid.
Yeah.
That was a weak comparison.
Yeah.
Yeah, but CNN does what they're told to do.
But I liked it.
Which really surprises me considering that John Malone is a piece of that.
Well, hence the stress test.
I'm still liking that whole idea.
I like the stress test idea.
I really do.
I think it makes sense.
You're gonna have to reverse it at some point.
Before the end of the year.
Yeah.
Before Christmas.
It's got six months, so it's a six-month thing.
We're gonna be talking about this for six months because of this bullcrap.
Yeah, I know.
They're gonna have to do a reversal and say, well, we were wrong, and golly gee whiz, you know, this guy was making a lot of sense, and all he really wants to do, and my two points, is that what he Has to do, or wants to do, or what the CIA wants them to do, or somebody wants them to do, is get those TV advertisements of drug companies, go back to making them illegal.
And then I think the second thing is that going after Nixon's edict, Nixon's the one who screwed up our health care system by creating, allowing these Health management companies to make profits.
It was illegal to make a profit.
You had to be a non-profit.
You had to break even.
But ever since they made them profitable, and it became a thing, they've taken over the place.
I mean, I can't even find an independent doctor around here, and I'm in California.
Speaking of SSRIs, this really does seem to be at least the base of some of the trans-Maoism going on, as by having boots on the ground.
Anonymous.
Who's noticed a pattern in his circle of M to F friends.
That's male to female transition.
And how they got started down this rabbit hole.
As of course they went to the rapists, the therapists.
The ones who are captured.
That's not all of them because we certainly have therapists who are taking cash and don't even consult with kids.
But these are young men in this case.
And they were prescribed SSRIs, so these are antidepressants and all kinds of stuff, which we really don't know how they work or what they do, but everybody's on them!
It's believed to work like this.
Even in the ads they say they think it works, like, I don't know.
So of course, as we have seen often, if you're on them for long lengths of time, long periods of time, anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts start to occur, the very thing that's supposed to stop, from a generation that in general feels a bit abandoned.
It gets perverse, our boots on the ground says.
When a side effect of these common drugs is, this is well known, this is one thing we know that the SSRIs do, they make it very difficult for people on them to achieve orgasm through regular sexual means.
In general, libido is down, achieving orgasm is difficult.
This is a known side effect of these drugs.
Funny they never say that on the television ads, do they?
They never have that as a side effect.
No, they don't.
I think they should.
It should.
Because of this difficulty in achieving orgasm, these young men tend to go on a perverted porn journey leading, I'm reading this, leading them to this whole hypnosis shtick, the sissy hypnosis shtick.
And the way they are then told by the sissy groomers is, oh no, you can achieve an orgasm by prostate stimulation.
So enter, literally enter, anal sex.
And this thou leads down the rabbit hole of sissy hypnoporn and forced feminization, etc.
And I actually have a video here from one of these, I would call them, not really a groomer.
She's clearly from Europe, I think a foreign country.
She's on Instagram and she would be someone who confirms young men that they are in fact sissies.
Here she is.
Hi guys, my name is Bella.
Welcome back to my channel.
And in this video, we're going to talk about the five main signs that somebody is a sissy.
And these signs are kind of subtle.
I'm not going to be talking about things like, oh, he has 50 G strings in the closet, right?
Because that's kind of obvious.
So these are going to be like really subtle signs.
Maybe if you are suspecting yourself to be a sissy, this video is definitely going to help you.
Or if you already know that you are a sissy, and you just want to reinforce yourself, this is also going to be a video for you.
Or maybe if you are suspecting somebody else in your surroundings to be a sissy, then... You understand what's going on here, yeah?
You can understand it clearly enough?
Good enough, yeah.
Yeah, so she's saying if you suspect you're a sissy, and I'm only going to do two or three.
I would have run that one through the Adobe.
She's got too much echo.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
Well, we'll just have to deal with it at this point.
Well, actually, I could run it through the Adobe and come back to it, but it kind of fits in the whole flow of things.
I don't want to do that.
We might as well run it through the Adobe.
So we'll come back to the sissy and how she is basically helping confirm Confirm young men that hey, you know, you really are a sissy.
This is this is really who you are And or if you know somebody who's a sissy then you know, then or you suspect you suspect you should tell them Hey, you know, you're a sissy.
This is and it by the way, it's completely normal as you can hear She's speaking just normal tones.
If you think someone's a sissy then they should let them know So Helen Joyce, we've played clips from her before.
She literally wrote the book on this transgenderism and how damaging it is.
She did another interview which was... Oh wait!
I have the... Hey, Adobe was fast!
Hold on a second.
Let me get Adobe here.
Let's do this.
How cool is that?
I can't believe it went so fast.
Okay.
So, here we go.
Let's see if this helps.
Hi guys, my name is Bella.
Oh my god, you were right.
You hear the difference?
Oh yeah.
I mean that, hey, Adobe rocks, man.
All right, here we go.
Come back to my channel and in this video we're going to talk about the five main signs that somebody is a sissy and these signs are kind of subtle.
I'm not gonna be talking about things like, oh he has You know what else this does besides take the echo out?
It brings out the full-throated arrogance of this creep.
really subtle signs.
Maybe if you are suspecting yourself to be a sissy, this video is definitely to help you.
Or if you already know that you are a sissy. - You know what else this does besides take the echo out?
It brings out the full-throated arrogance of this creep. - Yeah.
Yeah, it really does.
And you just want to reinforce yourself, this is also going to be a video for you.
Or maybe if you're suspecting somebody else in your surroundings to be a sissy, then yeah, you're going to know after this video.
So let's get started.
Oh man, you know who she reminds me of?
That's true.
She reminds me of those ladies for some odd reason.
Anyway.
Yeah, you're gonna know after this video, so let's get started!
First sign of somebody that's a sim is that they have no male friends.
They have never been part of this like big men group.
You know, this kind of like groups in high school.
There's like a lot of guys and they do guy stuff together.
Sisters are usually not gonna be part of that.
So if I'm sitting at home in my basement, vaping, playing video games, I'm probably like, Hey, that's me!
I got no male friends!
I ain't no big, muscly male friends around!
Or even like if you don't just go to school anymore, they usually don't have a healthy masculine group around them.
This is really, you're right, this is really horrible what they're doing here.
Or even like if you don't just go to school anymore, they usually don't have a healthy masculine group around them.
They usually have no friends at all, or they prefer to just spend time with their families or with a female company.
Oh boy, if you hang out with girls, you're probably a sissy.
So that was the first sign.
Okay, the second sign is that they feel attracted to female lingerie.
And it's not just them buying it, it's them like talking about it, like, oh, this is this looks so pretty, you know, maybe like scrolling some Victoria's Secret or something.
They just feel attracted and compelled to the female clothing, even like when they're outside shopping.
They always have to take a look, you know, and So, as we've discussed and we've heard from experts, this is truly the way in.
This is for male transitions.
It eventually becomes a fetish.
The fetish is so, they become so obsessed through the porn they're watching that they eventually want to wear the female clothing and basically have sex with the woman that they feel is the woman of their dreams by becoming the woman of their dreams.
It is, in fact, a mental condition.
Yeah, they just want to explore more of it and they just feel weird attraction to all female clothing.
So next sign, the third sign, is that they put a bit too much effort into their looks and I'm not just talking about clothes because it doesn't necessarily have to be clothes, But I'm talking about, like, products, for example, and they use a lot of products on their skin, they, like, they care about all these, like, female stuff, you know?
Like, when females use, like, when girls use, like, a lot of peelings and, like, masks or whatever, they just want to try it out too, right?
Like, they feel really compelled to that.
So if you'd use moisturizer, you might be a sissy!
And not like it's wrong, it's definitely not wrong that you're trying to take care of yourself, but it's not something that you would usually see with these, like, really masculine men, right?
Right?
Okay.
Yeah.
I'm stopping it there.
Now we go to Helen Joyce, and she's going to explain how this unhealthy obsession, well, I mean, it becomes a fetish for men.
They start watching this category of porn, and she is going to take us through What, what really, why we're now going after kids?
I mean, it's fascinating to listen to.
So no, there aren't trans kids.
We know that.
And yet there must be.
But they're being encouraged to believe they are.
Yes.
And so you're getting a sort of, in a way, another form of gay conversion therapy, aren't you?
I think it's the most straightforward form of gay conversion therapy.
It's a conversion therapy on the body.
You turn a, you know, perfectly normal, healthy gay person into a sterile because, you know, this treatment pathway sends you on the way to sterility.
A sterile, pretend straight person of the opposite sex.
I mentioned the elephant in the room.
I mean, there's absolutely an erotic drive for some men, in particular, to present as women.
That's their erotic fixation, in fact.
And they're in love with the woman they wish to be.
And if you don't want to say that, like one of the specialists that I interviewed for the book, he said it very frankly.
He said, you know, suppose you've been erotically cross-dressing since your teens and you're now in your 50s and this woman is more real to you than anything else and it's time to be her.
And you walk into work and you say, I've been masturbating in my wife's knickers.
Since I got married, it's time to wear them all the time.
That's not going to go down well.
But if you go in and you say, I have always been a woman inside, and now it's time, I can't hide that fact about me anymore.
That fits much better into this long run history of, you know, And, you know, black liberation, women's liberation, gay liberation, you know, it's got a... Jumping on this much more respectable... Yes, but also a strong feeling of progress, the sort of arc of progress bends slowly, but, you know, that sort of thing.
It feels like part of that even though it's a very different thing.
So then what do you have to say and do to make that plausible, that actually there's a woman inside and that's the real person that you are?
Because it's a very bizarre claim.
Well, you have to have always been that way.
And if you've always been that way, then there are children who are trans.
Boom!
So in order to live with your fetish, you can go into work now and say, well, I've always been a woman.
Oh, how wonderful, Bob!
Love your dress!
Love your nails!
And then the logical conclusion.
She wrote the book on this.
She's a very interesting woman.
And this is not her opinion.
She interviewed a lot of doctors.
Went through a lot of effort to put this together.
Then if that is true, if you've always been a woman, oh, then there must be kids that are born that way.
And if you look back at sort of 70 or 80 years that doctors have been seeing people who come in and say, I was meant to be a woman or I was meant to be a man or whatever, if they're children, they tend to grow out of it, like 80 to 90% grow out.
And it happens around puberty.
And it happens mostly because they say, oh, I'm gay.
Because there's a strong link between being quite non-conforming for your sex in early childhood and growing up to be gay.
We've known that for a long time.
Every homophobe knows it.
Every dad who wants to beat the sissiness out of his sissy little boy because he wants him to grow up straight knows it.
And yet it's become a kind of an unmentionable thing.
I don't quite know why, because it's really very obvious once you look, if you know children.
But those kids now think of themselves as trans, and they often before would, too.
They'd wonder, like, why am I like this?
Like, especially if they've got a very traditional, rigid family that's trying to push them into traditional sex roles.
So you have a little boy who wants a Barbie and doesn't like, you know, cries at the idea of playing rugby and so on, and if he's told he's a sissy, take away the doll, no you're not allowed to wear a skirt, at some point the idea occurs to that poor child, why am I like this?
I wish I was a girl.
Maybe I was meant to be a girl.
And of course that's now being encouraged actively by mermaids.
Yes, exactly.
So those kids, they popped up, they always popped up, and as soon as gender clinics saw kids, there were very few of them, but they used to see them, and they just tracked them, and what happened was those boys in their teens went, oh, now I know why I'm different, I'm gay.
That was the overwhelming thing that happened.
So no, there aren't trans kids.
We know that.
And yet there must be.
But they're being encouraged to believe they are.
Yes.
And so you're getting a sort of, in a way, another form of gay conversion therapy, aren't you?
I think it's the most straightforward form of gay conversion therapy.
It's a conversion therapy on the body.
You turn a, you know, perfectly normal, healthy gay person into a sterile because, you know, this treatment pathway sends you on the way to sterility.
A sterile, pretend straight person of the opposite sex.
And this is what Levine is doing?
Rachel Levine, this is the Prisker woman, man, woman thing?
This is, this is really a problem.
Well, it's definitely a problem for the Democrat Party.
Because the party will be out of people within a generation.
Because they're sterilizing their own.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's the short-sightedness of it.
But it's just, wow, man!
But they don't like to, you know, the funny thing is, you bring this up at the table with anybody who's not following it, is that nobody sees this as a mass sterilization project.
No.
No, they don't.
It's not even suggested, let alone thought of, but that's what it is.
This is mass sterilization of children.
And where are the gays and lesbians?
Because even what... Well, they're befuddled by the whole thing, they're...
They can't keep up either.
Many of them, since many of them, not all of them obviously, are liberals because they think it has something to do with their being gay.
And they are just flummoxed and they're buying into it.
They're making the biggest mistake.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We need a trans Maoism jingle.
Why has that not happened?
How are you going to do it?
I don't know, someone needs to tell us.
It's going to be sick, so we're going to accept the fact it's going to be sick.
Trans Maoism moment!
So I have a couple of clips.
I do have a real news clip, but I thought you'd break things up a little bit.
And now, back to real news.
Because we haven't done this forever.
Meghan and Harry.
These are challenging times for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
Harry and Meghan's marriage is in trouble.
There's such a mess going on around them.
The new Harry and Meghan headlines.
Trouble in paradise, rumours of divorce, and they're taking time apart.
Things haven't been so marvellous over in Montecito.
The tabloids seem to be in attack mode.
Why?
Well, speculation is there's pressure on the pair after some recent bad press.
They are destroying us.
Seven days ago, their Netflix docuseries failed to get an Emmy nod.
Just weeks earlier, Harry and Meghan parted ways with Spotify after making an estimated $25 million deal.
And then a company exec trashed them.
I wish I'd been involved in the Meghan and Harry leave Spotify negotiation.
The f***ing Grifters.
That's the podcast we should have launched with them.
This also comes amid major backlash in the UK.
You know, this plays right into my boomerang theory.
And I will repeat it.
If you abuse the press for your own benefit.
The media in general.
The media.
That boomerang comes back in equal and opposite force.
Yeah.
This is what you get.
Yeah, that's exactly right.
This has been your thesis forever.
Yes.
And this is a perfect example of it because we both of us knew that this was going to happen.
Yeah, we should have mentioned it.
Built them up and built them up.
And then there's been a little chitchat about them ripping off everybody because they're drifters.
From the executives at Spotify, no less.
Wow, there's a lawsuit waiting to happen.
But then again... Yeah, it's expensive.
So I have one offbeat clip I want to play.
It's a minute and eight seconds.
And it needs to be discussed because this is going on all over the place and nobody understands it.
It's called NPC, Non-Playing Character, whatever that NPC stands for.
Non-Playing Character, correct.
And there's a bunch of these TikTokers and YouTubers, but mostly TikTokers.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
Talk.
Talk.
TikTok.
We have a jingle for that!
There's a bunch of these TikTokers that go off and they're doing something called NPC, and they're just talking and babbling and doing, you know, remember that whisper trend there was for a while?
They were whispering and whispering.
The whisper trend?
I don't remember the whisper trend.
Yeah, there was a whispering thing.
It was like a whole thing.
It came and went.
This, I think, has more legs, and I'm going to play a clip of one of the women, I think is one of the best at it, of just yacking away, saying nothing, repeating herself over and over and over again.
This is a black woman.
People have seen her.
She's got a fake blonde wig on.
I'm sure it's a wig.
I'm listening to this because NPC also has a second meaning, and it has to do with spying and spookery.
And I think, and I'm going to say it in advance, I believe that this is, non-playing character bit is, this is a number station.
Okay, of all the things, I did not expect this.
Let us give a, how about an example of a number station?
Yeah, this is it.
This is the NPC Black Girl.
You want to hear an actual number station?
Oh yeah, play the number station first.
This is our number, this is the No Agenda number station.
You can hear these on shortwave.
India, tango, mic, stand by, 33, 33, 33, rubbleizer out.
Okay, so that's an example of a number station, and now we're going to listen to this NPC.
Slay, huh, ooh-ooh-ooh, slay, huh?
I feel so good, ooh-ooh-ooh.
Yes, yes, yes, ooh-ooh-ooh.
Oh, thank you, baby.
I love you.
Yes, yes, yes.
Yes, yes, yes.
Oh, thank you, baby.
I love you.
Yes, yes, yes.
Oh, thank you, baby.
I love you.
Yes, yes, yes.
Oh, thank you, baby.
I love you.
Yes, yes, yes.
Do the dance, do the dance.
Oh, baby, you know I can't swim.
Yes, popcorn.
Yes, popcorn.
Slay her.
Mmm, that was good.
Coconut.
Mmm, that was good.
Coconut.
Cake, cake, cake, cake, cake.
Oh, thank you, baby.
This is so cute.
Gaga.
Mmm, ice cream's so good.
Yes, yes, yes.
Meow, meow, meow.
Fire, fire, fire.
Oh, special.
Ooh, yes, yes, yes.
Yes, yes, yes.
Ooh, pop.
Amazing.
Balloon.
Yes, popcorn!
Fire!
Fire!
Balloon!
Ice cream's so good!
Balloon!
Ice cream's so good!
Okay.
First of all- Goes on for ten minutes.
I do this in the shower, so I'm not quite sure about- I'm not a number station.
I think it's something else.
There's a donation aspect to this.
Yeah, and I think that's part of it.
I think those numbers that keep flying on the screen showing certain donations is part of the number station.
This is a high-end encrypted product.
Stop!
It's a high-end encryption product, so this is actually a public key that she's giving us.
Well, obviously, I have no idea what she's... Yeah, that's my thinking, because that's exactly what it reminded me of.
I had this clip, and I was thinking, Adam is not going to let me play this clip, because it's stupid.
Young boys are jacking off to this girl, they're sending her money, and it's all... I know exactly who's going to... Anne Silla's going to set us straight on this, because I've seen this trend, this lick, lick, mint, mint, blah, blah, blah.
This is basically value for value.
Direct to value for value.
Do you want me to go lick lick lick and then they send you money?
This is the end of civilization is what this is.
One of the reasons I'm going to stick with my theory is because I've watched different versions of this and not everybody is good at it.
I don't know what kind of a script is involved here or what she's doing.
This particular girl is definitely a number station.
Some of the other ones are just lousy.
I love your thesis, man.
Lick, lick, lick.
Boing, boing, boing.
I'm gonna show my school by donating to No Agenda.
Imagine all the people who could do that.
Oh yeah, that'd be fab.
Yeah, on No Agenda.
So we have Matthew Gill at the top of our list.
Woohoo!
He actually sent a note in.
I don't normally read these notes, and we don't read notes under 200.
Yeah, people have to understand, once in a while we'll do that, just because.
Handwritten note.
Okay.
He needs a de-douching, he's right at the top.
Oh man, I am out of control today.
Yeah.
What is going on with me?
You've been de-douched.
Something's wrong.
I'm off.

If you came in under $50, we will not mention you at all, because that's we keep everybody anonymous there.

Our layaway night.
He will be a knight.
I think it's anonymous.
Hey, John Adam, I've been listening since late 2020 after hearing Adam's first appearance on Rogood.
COVID had made me realize I couldn't stick my head in the sand any longer, but I didn't have the time or mental fortitude to sort through all the M5M propaganda.
Thank you for doing that for us with humor and clarity.
Your always excellent analysis has been especially insightful lately.
I've been on the 3333 monthly sustaining membership since late 2020 and it's finally added up.
Please knight me, Sir Colorado of the Pacific Coast.

Yes, she says, shout out to hometown hero, Austin-based manufacturer of the best Delta 8 and best Delta 9 products on the market!

Thank you very much, sir, for supporting the best podcast in the universe.
We really do appreciate you.
