This is your award-winning Kim Ronation Media Assassination episode 181.
This is no agenda.
Uncancelable and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA region number six.
In the morning, everybody.
I'm Adam Curry.
And from Brothers.
Where are you?
Northern City.
I thought you had the whole week to get ready.
I did.
I screwed it up.
did.
Hit it.
Adam Curry, John C. Devorah.
It's Sunday, September 21st, 2025.
This is your award-winning Foundation Media Assassination episode 181.
This is no agenda.
Uncancelable and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA region number six in the morning, everybody.
I'm Adam Curry.
And from Northern Silicon Valley, where we missed it completely.
How did that happen?
I'm John C. Dvoraky.
It's Craig Vaughn Boskill.
In the morning.
So I have a question.
Why are bagpipes often used at funerals?
It's some tradition in Scotland.
Was Charlie Kirk from Scottish of Scottish origin?
I don't know.
Maybe.
Well, because they have bagpipers.
I'm surprised you didn't pick up on my teaser.
Well, that we completely forgot.
Yeah.
Forgot what?
You don't remember what we forgot?
Completely.
We completely forgot in the last show.
We forgot it now.
We completely forgot it.
We have it just didn't even come across our desk.
Did it come across the climate desk?
No, it wasn't climate.
No, but it could have come across I really don't know.
Blackout.
Oh no.
Did we miss Blackout?
Blackout.
It came and went on the 15th, I think.
And it was well organized.
There were going to be a million demonstrations.
The country was going to be on a general strike.
We're going to shut down because of Trump.
Hmm.
That's interesting.
Did we really we didn't really think that was going to work, though, did we?
Well, we didn't, but at least we could have ridiculed it or something.
We didn't even do that.
It was just it was such a dud.
Well, there was that it wasn't even in the news.
Well, and that's why these things fail.
If it's not in the news, then it's not clipped and sent out on social media.
There was something else going on in the country in the world at the time.
And so that's how these things work or don't work.
If if there and you know maybe it's very possible it was happening all over, but we didn't know about it.
If a tree falls in the forest, does anyone hear it?
If no one's there.
Does it make a sound?
Well, I was here in the Bay Area and I didn't see anybody protesting.
Well, walking out, you know.
I I suppose someone from the black community could say it's supposed to be the blacks that were supposed to stop working for some reason.
The blacks could have said the blacks.
The blacks said, you know, we haven't got any jobs, so what are we supposed to do?
So um a lot of I got several emails people saying, you know, you should start the show an hour later.
I'm like, this is going to be a multi-hour thing, this Charlie Kirk memorial.
Uh you know, we might as well not do a show if if you know it's like if we we we do a show on our own deathbeds.
This is true.
We do it on Christmas, we're on vacation.
We're gonna change the show for some outside influence.
I don't think so.
No.
And uh it's a podcast, people.
You can listen to it any time.
I I am recording it.
I will watch it later tonight.
I'm very I'm very interested.
It's it's uh it's a real moment for America's younger generation.
At that place is packed.
Now, of course, they're showing me celebrities on the quad screen.
Very important.
We see who's there.
Were you there?
Um big names.
Chris Tomlin, Brandon Lake, Phil Wickham.
These are all big names.
Oh they well, you won't see them on the MTV awards, but yeah, they're big, they're big names.
I haven't heard of any all three of those names are Unknown to me.
Well because I didn't know who Halsey was until I was seeing all these posts.
Because they won't let Halsey do another album.
So I went and I went to uh YouTube to listen to Halsey.
You're still stuck on Halloween.
Just another one of these manufactured acts.
It's just like it's she sounds like Taylor Swift.
Probably has a little better voice.
But it's the songs are unmemorable, and there's lots of them.
And yeah, that's what popular top 40 music has always been that.
Unmemorable.
I mean, name three songs, Taylor.
Hum, hum.
The hook from Taylor Swift's songs.
Three.
From three Taylor Swift songs.
No, you can't.
Rihanna.
You're a big fan of Rihanna, but you can't hum one of her songs.
I can't.
Yeah.
Now these are uh Christian contemporary artists.
They sell out Austin's.
Oh, that's so that's why you would know.
I wouldn't know.
No.
They sell out Austin two nights, 15,000 people each night.
They're pretty big.
That's a good business.
It's a great.
It's it's the God business, man.
It's a good business.
Um so I have uh a suggestion for people.
Uh get a proton mail or a fast mail account, or get something other than Gmail.
Because I am convinced, based on the content of your newsletter, that Gmail slash Google slash alphabet destroyed it.
Well, I think this happens uh uh by the way, uh uh uh uh our our girl uh Catherine in Bangkok didn't get the mail either.
It's always Gmail.
Yeah, and I think you might be right, but the problem is every time I send out the second note, I get about 10 to 20 to 30 to 50 to 100 people saying, I've got Gmail.
I've always gotten a newsletter.
I don't know what these people's problems are.
So it's it's there's something selective about it, and I can't, and there's I have yet to figure out what it might be.
It could also, believe it or not, it could just also be a massive technical fail.
Email, you know, there's a lot that can go wrong.
You know, I years ago, this is back in the early 80s when I was writing for the deck professional.
Wow, a platform that I don't think is in use anymore.
No, because there's no deck.
No digital equipment corporation doesn't exist.
And I wrote this column.
Uh funny thing is the columns I wrote for that magazine is the only columns I won any awards for.
Yeah.
Wait a minute.
Wait, what award?
What award did you win?
I wrote the Computer Press Association Award for Best Column for one of those.
Computer, did they have a gala every year?
The computer press association.
They did, they did.
And it was gay.
Uh so no, no surprise there.
Well, it was a gay law.
Oh, very gala, yes.
It took you forever.
Yeah, so uh I so I wrote this column once there.
I remember this distinctly because I never got so much hate mail in my life.
It was about during the early days of the internet when it was still, you know, just after Arpinetta first, you know, you get an email account.
And I did a rant about how that's unreliable.
And it's never gonna, you know, it's always gonna be that way.
It's just because of the system itself, the whole mechanism stinks.
And oh man, all these nerds, you know, these these engineers from all these big companies.
You can't say it's bull crap, this is the best thing ever.
It's gonna work and it works well.
Well, you're I'm sorry.
I was right.
Well, you're also on uh on video with evidence of how you troll Apple people.
That's one of my favorite pieces of video.
You were so so glib about, oh, this is how I do it.
You know, I slam Apple, and then I'll go, yeah, Apple's great, and then I'll slam them again.
And then people whipped some back and forth, and my audience just keeps growing.
You're the ultimate troll.
It's very good.
Uh well, I'm not as much as I used to be.
Well, I lost my touch, to be honest about it.
Can you turn in your speakers just a little bit?
It's really really coming back loud.
What is this?
Why is it?
Yeah, it's coming back loud today for some reason.
It should be okay now.
Yeah, it's okay now.
So uh oh, I forgot last night.
I uh local local Fredericksburg news report.
Oh, and by the way, when you before you get your Fredericksburg news report, I want to say so.
Mimi up who's running for office in Port Angeles.
Yeah, but where where's the script?
She has uh oh that's coming.
She has a uh friend who's an ex-police, and he's he is he is connected to the same military intelligence people we talk about before.
Oh Grid going down.
He feels he is feeds through she says she tells me these stories, what what why does he think this?
And I always say that by the way, my response which includes there's gonna be an assassination attempt at the Charlie Kirk thing, and there's all this and that, and all the the anomalies about the uh the the assassination and all the rest.
And I said, you know, and the one thing in common I think that all these people have is they refuse to listen to the no agenda show.
Oh no, why would they?
It's like Laura Logan doesn't listen to the no agenda show.
She'll never listen to it because it's it's no uh uh I can barely get the keeper to listen to a full episode.
She listens.
You know who's you know who listened?
Everyone at church.
They love it, they love the no agenda show.
Everybody's like, yeah.
Oh, and so I walk in.
This is the boots and barbecue.
This is the big uh Fredericksburg Tea Party Gala, which I like a lot because uh it doesn't cost anything, and there's no auction.
Every gala in the world has an we have the silent auction is closed, everybody.
You know, they did have a silent auction.
You can they had an auction if they had a silent auction.
No, no, the silent auction, but it's it wasn't they had sponsors of the event.
They didn't have fun, it wasn't a fundraising event per se.
Although it is, but all these galas, like, and then okay, we've got half a cow from uh Ted's ranch, and the bidding starts at $800.
And, you know, and then so people wind up buying a $4,000 uh dollar half a cow.
You know, it's it's all kind, it's all like kind of icky.
It's like, yeah, look at me, I got the big swinger.
Just donate your money, you know.
And there's and there's always something that is very overpriced that you don't want.
Like uh a week's stay in Steamboat, Colorado in August.
Yeah, what's the name of this thing again?
Boots and barbecue.
And it's organized uh so that one of the big engines behind Boots and uh uh Boots and Barbecue to also the Fredericksburg Tea Party is Matt Long, who organizes our uh meetups here.
Uh and Matt's the guy that dresses up as Benjamin Franklin uh and goes into the the schools, the public schools.
Actually looks he looks like Benjamin Franklin's Oh he's good, he's great, he's good at it.
Nah, he's this is Matt's real deal.
One of Benjamin Franklin's uh I don't know, relatives into a direct descendant.
A guy named Nick DeWolf was a very famous uh technologist.
And he I think he was the great great grandson or something.
And he actually looked like Ben Franklin.
Well, Matt Long looks like Ben Franklin.
And he also derailed everything.
I know a guy who was friends with the great grandson.
You if you were if you had a good story, you just plow through it.
Yeah, but it wasn't a good story.
I'm I'm trying to get to it.
Um anyway, so it's a big deal.
And it's uh it's sponsored by uh let's see, this is a great list of people.
Gun owners of America.
Woo-hoo!
Um Ben Franklin?
No, no, the the Boots and Barbecue, the Tea Party, uh, the big annual gala.
Oh, I thought you said it wasn't sponsored by anybody.
No, I said there was no auction where they had those stupid auctions.
Oh, okay.
A golfing vacation.
Anyway.
Um I wanna I'm hearing something really strange.
I'm not something's something's off with my are you are you still there?
Yeah.
Something's off with the system.
I don't know what's going on today.
Um so uh underwritten, let's put it that way.
Gun owners of America, the convention of states, moms for liberty.
You can already tell this was a this was a hoot nanny.
This was good.
And the um the speaker was um that guy, um he has a lot of these podcasts.
Uh yeah.
A podcast story is getting worse.
Alex Newman.
Alex Newman.
Now he's pretty good.
Alex Newman did 45 minutes, and it was the no agenda show.
It was literally Agenda 2020, Agenda 2030, Soros, uh Common Core.
I mean, it was like a run through our history.
And the guy's out there making money on this.
I was sitting there going like, we could do this.
We'd just get a PowerPoint.
He had so many slides, said, well, I only have 45 minutes.
Just fast forwarded through about 50 slides.
Okay, we're here now.
But it was good.
You know, they honored the volunteer fire department of Kerr County.
Of course, you know, we had the floods here, so that was that was really nice.
Uh but anyway, the point is I bumped into uh Kyle Biederman.
And Kyle Biederman Why are you laughing?
That's because this is the most rambling story you've ever told.
Okay, let's move on to the news.
But I I don't even know who Kyle Biederman is.
I want to know now.
Guy who owns Ace.
Oh, okay.
Is he from Frederick Democrat?
He's a Fredericksburg State Senator for the Texas legislature, and he's a Republican.
Yes, and he owns Ace Hardware.
And he comes out to me and says, I he owns Ace Hardware, the chain?
No, he owns several uh franchises.
Oh, he owns his franchise and a pizza restaurant.
And he says, I love your show.
How long you've been doing that?
You guys, you're real really good.
Do you really like each other?
I said, No.
Uh that's a good show.
And he says, I love the Florida ounces.
And his wife, her name is Barbie.
She has an amazing voice.
She talks like this.
Anyway, uh, and Chip Roy.
Chip Roy was there.
Did Chip Roy listen to the show?
Chip Roy doesn't listen to anything or anybody.
He's at every single one of these.
He's running for Texas Attorney General.
That's why he was there.
And uh, and Don Heffanite Heffinus, he's running for Comptroller.
He has a political event.
But you know what was good?
The barbecue was good.
Somehow that story just didn't unpack.
I think was all I was gonna do really short update and uh I think he could have started with the ending.
What the barbecue was really good.
No, I just barbecue is good, and guess who was there?
And he likes the no agenda show.
I think that would have some really made it uh brought it home.
I'll I'll do better.
I'll do it instead of a bunch of bands I never heard of.
The bands what is the bands were at Charlie Kirk's memorial.
You are very you're not listening.
You're very confused.
I no, it's because the story was discombobly.
Whatever.
Okay.
It was it was bad.
Oh, okay.
So let's here we go.
Here we go.
Here we go.
No, the the topic of the week has been free speech.
And it's really irked me how well, not irked me.
Uh, I think people tune in to the no agenda show or listen to it on the podcast to get some actual information to really understand what the truth is about something, and everybody is full of crap, including Ted Cruz.
What he said there is dangerous as hell.
And I gotta say, that's right out of Goodfellas.
That the the the the that's right out of a mafiosa coming into that that's all folks.
Wait, I wonder if I have that.
Wow.
That is that's gotta be some kind of tell.
Let me see.
That that's right out of a mafiosa.
I missed it.
Here we go.
And I gotta say that's right out of goodfellows.
That the the I thought I had a that's all they got.
I don't have it.
I don't have it.
I don't have a porky pig.
All right, onward.
I gotta say that's right out of goodfellows.
That the the the that that that's right out of a mafioso coming into a bar going, nice bar you have here.
It'd be a shame if something happened To it.
If the government gets in the business of saying Well, hold on a second.
What is Cruz doing shtick now?
Well, this is his podcast.
It's on his podcast.
And he's doing voices?
That wasn't bad, actually.
I thought his voice was.
No, it wasn't.
No, I'm not saying it was bad.
It was pretty good.
But he's Ted Cruz.
I know.
But this is a the whole thing stems from a dumb remark or a remark made on a podcast.
All right.
This is where this whole people don't think about what they're saying on podcasts.
We've been the thesis of yours for the entire 18 years we've been doing this show.
And it's the basic thesis.
You love bringing these these people from these naive people.
I don't know, understand it either, to be honest about it.
Why you think that you can say stuff on a podcast you wouldn't say on network TV?
Well, uh it's uh they don't consider it to be real media to this day.
It's getting a little closer, I think.
Because like Palm Bandy.
You know, she she said stuff on a podcast, which was just ridiculous.
And you know, we determined that that was possibly uh a Stephen Miller hit, which I think is still a very good thesis.
But anyway, let's get back to Ted Cruz with his shit.
It'd be a shame if something happened to it.
If the government gets in the business of saying it can't say what?
Did you say something?
No, that was in the clip.
Oh, you sound like Cruz.
If the government gets in the business of saying it can't say what you, the media have said, we're going to ban you from the airwaves if you don't say what we like.
That will end up bad for conservatives.
Okay.
So let's just go through a couple things which are not really exposed at all.
Uh or discuss, and let's listen first to what um Jimmy Kimmel actually said.
We had some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them, and doing everything they can to score political points from it.
In between the finger pointing, there was uh grieving on Friday the White Okay, so the actual offense as it's being determined, and we'll get into it, is this beginning part, and the second part is what everybody's focused on.
We had some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them, and doing everything they can to score political points from it.
In between So that was the the true offense was saying that this was a MAGA guy.
He's saying it in reverse, but he's kind of saying that.
And then we go into the the comedy portion.
The finger pointing.
There was uh grieving on Friday, the White House flew the flags at half-staff, which got some criticism, but on a human level, you can see how hard the president is taking this.
Dr. Golf is not a lot of your friend Charlie Kirk.
May I ask, sir personally, how are you holding up over the last day and a half, sir?
I think very good.
And by the way, right there, you see all the trucks.
They've just started construction of the new ballroom for the White House, which is something they've been trying to get, as you know, for about 150 years, and it's gonna be a beauty.
Yes.
He's at the fourth stage of grief, construction.
Demolition, construction.
This is not how an adult grieves the murder of someone he called a friend.
This is how a four-year-old mourns a goldfish.
Uh, okay, it was offensive towards the president because really you know that that I don't know if the president even heard the first bit that the uh that the reporter asked.
Like, you know, the the murder of Charlie, sorry about your the murder of your friend Charlie Kirk.
How are you holding up?
Or maybe he's an 80-year-old who's like, huh?
What?
Yeah, I'm doing great.
Look at the construction over there.
I don't know.
But that's fine.
But that's what it seems like.
Well, here's here's the full clip of that in context.
Michael Golden.
Michael Golf is on a logic or friend Charlie Kirk.
May I ask, sir, firstly, how are you holding up over the last day and a half, sir?
I think very, I mean, that's uh from the that's standing next to the president, it's a different camera angle.
It's kind of hard to hear what he said.
But it regardless.
So then Brendan Carr, the FCC chairman, goes on the Benny Johnson podcast and shoots his mouth off.
Although technically I believe he is correct.
There's a very concerted effort to try to lie to the American people about the nature, as you indicate, of one of the most significant uh newsworthy public interest acts that we've seen in a long time.
And what appears to be an action, appears to be an action by Jimmy Kimmel to play into that narrative that this was somehow a MAGA or Republican motivated person.
If that's what happened here with his conduct, that is that is really, really sick.
And I've been very clear.
They have a license granted by us at the FCC, and that comes with it an obligation to operate in the public interest.
And we can get into some ways that we've been trying to reinvigorate the public interest and some changes that we've seen.
But frankly, when you see stuff like this, I mean, look, we can do this the easy way or the hard way.
These companies can find ways to change conduct to take action, frankly, uh on Kimmel, or you know, there's gonna be additional work for the FCC ahead.
So kind of a dumb statement because it did sound threatening, but what people don't understand is how the system works, because everyone just watches stuff on X, or you watch it maybe on YouTube TV.
This is legacy, legacy of spectrum of and which is very valuable.
You know, you probably read about auctions.
Oh, a billion dollars here, 10 billion dollars here, 17, but think um Starlink just bought some spectrum from somebody else for 17 billion dollars.
So the broadcast spectrum is owned by all of us, the taxpayers, and the licensing requirements are very clear, although they really have not ever been enforced because most uh presidents and administrations have been afraid of the media.
Like, well, you know, uh, if we start to mess with them, then you know they'll say bad things about me.
Well, I don't think President Trump has anything to lose in that manner.
And it really is not the networks, it's each local individual station that has a transmitter, which if they just turn those off and went you know, full digital, they would not have to deal with any of this.
Yes.
Well, yet, that's true.
So that there's a few requirements.
First of all, uh, you have to be a citizen, can't be a foreign government.
This is why Rupert Murdoch became an American.
Character.
An applicant must act honestly, intentional misrepresentations greatly increase the risk of license denial or non-renewal, criminal contact uh conduct may or may not disqualify an applicant.
When reviewing competing applications, an applicate applicant who has no character issues, more likely to receive the license than one with legal violations, et cetera, financial requirements, and there's technical requirements.
But there is uh there are some very specific laws about what you can and can't broadcast.
So, first let's continue with Benny.
These are all short with Benny Johnson and uh Brendan Carr.
Obviously, look, there's calls for Kim to be fired.
Um, I think you know, you could certainly see a path forward for uh suspension over this.
And again, you know, the FCC is gonna have remedies that we could look at.
Um again, you know, we may ultimately be called to be a judge on that, but this also strikes me a sort of conduct uh that to some extent shows some sort of desperate irrelevance.
I mean, look, NPR has been defunded, PBS has been defunded, Colbert is retiring, Joy Reed is out at MSNBC, Terry Moran uh has gone from uh ABC and sort of now admitting that they are biased.
Uh CBS has now made some commitments to us that they're going to return to more fact-based journalism.
And so I think you see some lashing out uh from people like Kimmel, uh, who are frankly talentless.
See, yeah, it's like this is a podcast, and he thinks that no one watches Benny Johnson, or I'll do I'll do this quick Benny Johnson podcast.
He's a big, of course he is.
Although, man, go look at his YouTube channel.
You know, he does with all the with the YouTube channel.
If you want to just find the Brendan Carr interview, good luck, because every image is AI generated of outrage-looking people.
You know, that because that's what you have to do in order for the algorithms to pick it up and people to click on.
Oh, there's an outrage clip.
Oh, I got to check that out.
So before you continue, I want to comment on that clip.
The way he cavalierally says that PBS and NPR have been defunded, it is ridiculous.
They're not defunded at all.
They're not even close to being defunded.
What he meant to say or should have said was that the government's not giving them any more subsidies subsidies, and that amounts to one percent of their budget.
So how is that defunded?
It's not.
He he's an idiot in line with Tom Banner.
He should be fired.
Well, he might get fired, but and maybe this was intentional.
I don't know.
It doesn't seem like it.
It seems like he's just shooting his mouth off, and as a commissioner, that's not your job.
We finally we know his j you're absolutely correct.
This guy should not be on a podcast at all.
He should just sh like all these lot of people that during this the Kirk the Kirk era, they should just shut up.
Well, here he is with the actual rules and regulations, and then I have a few things to read.
We have a rule on the book that interprets a public interest standard that says news distortion um is something that is prohibited.
Likewise, we have a rule that addresses broadcast hoaxes.
And so again, over the years, the FCC has stepped back from enforcing it, and I don't think it's been to the benefit of anybody.
Just look at the credibility of this legacy media.
It's absolutely through the floor.
They used to be able to say at least they were more trustworthy than Congress, but now they're even less trustworthy than Congress.
And so I think as a business matter for them, something has to change.
And at the FCC, you know, we need to re-invigorate this.
So again, there's actions that we can take on licensed broadcasters.
And frankly, I think that it's it's it's really sort of past time that a lot of these licensed broadcasters themselves push back on Comcast and Disney and say, listen, we are going to preempt, we're not going to run Kimmel anymore until you straighten this out because we, we licensed broadcaster, are running the possibility of fines or license revocations from the FCC.
If we continue to run content that ends up being a pattern of news distortion.
So I think, again, Disney needs to see some change here, but the individual licensed stations that are taking their content, it's time for them to step up and say, this, you know, garbage, uh, to the extent that that's what comes down the pipe in the future, uh, isn't something that we think serves the needs of our local communities.
So just so we understand, it the FCC can't pull anything away from ABC, NBC, CBS.
They can only pull away from individual stations.
And the renewal period is every eight years, and it's a real thing.
It really happens.
And usually it's like, eh, whatever, just keep on going.
But the citizens who are in the market of a of a transmitter, they are the ones who can file complaints.
And I'm sure they've filed plenty of complaints against the Vue and Kimmel.
There's a lot of people, particularly our age and older, who sit at home going, ah, these guys, I'm gonna file a complaint with the SCC.
You know that that happens.
And the S I'm at the point, if I wasn't doing this podcast, I'd be doing it.
Exactly.
You'd be let writing letters to the president on your on your typewriter.
No, so this is um it's very valid that a lot of these stations who are getting their complaints are saying, well, you know, this is kind of a problem because I think it's in 2028, is when a lot of them come up for renewal.
Like, well, you know, uh if you look at the balance and if you really look at the laws, the laws, then you know, I can see where they would be worried, and Brendan Carr obviously threw some gasoline on the fire.
Um now that there is another very specific uh it's uh it's in U.S. law, 7047 CFR 73.1217.
Now I certainly defer Oops, sorry, that's not the one.
Um, it's he talks about here.
We have a rule on the book that interprets a public interest standard that says news distortion um is something that is prohibited.
Likewise, we have a rule that addresses broadcast hoaxes.
And so again, over the years, the FCC has stepped back from enforcing it.
And I don't think it's been to the benefit of anybody.
Just look at the credibility of this legacy media.
It's absolutely through the floor.
They used to be able to say at least they were more trustworthy than Congress, but now they're even less trustworthy than Congress.
And so I think as a business matter for them, something has to change.
And at the FCC, you know, we need to re-invigorate this.
So again, there's actions that we can take on licensed broadcasters.
And frankly, I think that it's it's it's really sort of past time that a lot of these licensed broadcasters themselves push back on Comcast and Disney and say, listen, we are going to preempt, we're not going to run Kimmel anymore until you straighten this out.
Because I just played that?
I think I just played that.
Yeah, you played it twice in a row.
Yeah, okay.
So the law is no licensee or permittee of any broadcast station shall broadcast false information concerning a crime or catastrophe if the licensee, this is number one, if the licensee knows this information is false.
Well, that's kind of difficult to prove.
That is tough.
That's a tough one to prove.
Um if it is foreseeable that broadcasts of the information will cause substantial public harm, maybe, maybe not.
Uh broadcast of the information does, in fact, directly cause substantial public harm.
This is kind of the what they call the hoax, the hoax rule.
So you know, uh, obviously no one should say anything because we don't know the exact origin.
They didn't at that time, certainly not know anything about this kid.
But you know, when you're talking uh someone who's saying, uh, I'm sorry, my love, and is hang living with a trans person, it's probably not a MAGA.
You know, so probably not.
Probably not.
So, you know, the And his mom said he wasn't.
You you can make a case that that was broadcasting false information, but it comes down to the But as we pointed out in the last show.
We had clips that indicated that that that operation is so filled with liberals and and siloed people, not bubble.
I I decided I was thinking about these terms silo versus bubble.
Bubbles pop, silos don't.
Uh siloed people that all believe something, and they and it so I I think they were totally sincere.
It was definitely was it a hoax.
Well, news distortion is another part of a different rule on the books, and this is the final question, short.
Do you believe that uh what Jimmy Kimmel said rises to the level of news distortion?
Look, again, the FCC could be called upon to be an ultimate judge in that, but at that at this point, uh, I think it's you know clear, it appears to be clear that uh you can make a strong argument that this is sort of an intentional effort to mislead the American people uh about a very core fundamental fact to a very important matter.
Uh at the end of the day, uh, if we do get called upon to cast a vote on this, Disney will have a chance to put in uh their arguments and explain it.
But um, you know, this is a very, very, you know, serious issue right now for Disney.
Right.
So serious issue for Disney, but he has no power over Disney.
He only has uh rule uh decision making over license renewal, which would come up in 2028, which he probably wouldn't even be there anymore if a Democrat president is in the administration, etc.
etc.
So it's all kind of hypothetical.
Here's uh Brendan Carr explaining himself on CNBC, where all truth comes out.
This is after this is after the podcast.
Yeah, this this was in fact uh Thursday.
Now I certainly defer to the decision making of the company itself in terms of saying this was beyond the bounds.
But I do wonder, and I think many people do whether you really are just targeting comedians that you did, you know, who typically through the years of uh have made fun of political figures in a way that uh because the president simply is offended by it.
No, no, no.
Look, again, broadcast TV is different.
We're on a cable show right now.
You don't have an FCC license, you don't have an obligation to serve the public interest, podcasts don't either stand-up comedians, whether they're on lots of forms of communications don't, and Kimmel is free to do that.
But if you have a broadcast TV license, that means that you have something that very few people have, and you're excluding other people from having access to that valuable public resource, and it comes with an obligation to serve the public interest.
And again, over The years, there's been a rule in place at the FCC that local TV stations get to preempt programming that they don't think meets the needs of their communities.
But recently, these national programmers, ABC, Disney, Comcast MBC, they've been exercising outsized control and power over those local TV stations, and there's been no pushback.
And this is a very significant moment because local broadcasters are now pushing back on national programmers for the first time that I can think of in modern history.
That's one of the things we want at the FCC.
We want to empower local broadcasters that have the public interest obligation to push back on national programmers so that people have more choice.
Now, this was interesting to me because I I'm not I don't do you know anything about that relationship?
Are these local broadcast stations?
Are they are they slaves of the networks?
Do they you know do they have their their hands on their nuts, so to speak.
Are they slaves to the networks?
I think to some extent they are.
Because we had a situation in the Bay Area where one of our stations, K R O N, which was the NBC affiliate, uh was kicked off of it was was replaced by a uh station that I think at the time was in Sacramento and they moved San Jose, KNTV, and it had to do with the you know, they all of a sudden the network wanted to charge more money.
Yeah.
And well, there it is.
It comes down to money.
There's a money issue.
Well, the the money by the way, is this one thing that's not mentioned here and it should be mentioned is the Disney thing is a little more complicated than what's being presented because there's also a deal that is going to have to be approved uh by the Trump administration at some point in time coming up.
What's which is what is the Disney deal?
The Disney deal, Disney's trying to buy via ESPN, they're trying to buy NFL networks.
Oh.
Well, what is oh that would be uh anti-competitive uh yes, because it brings NFL you know, more NFL games over to ESPN, and and this is a big deal.
Uh no one talks about that one.
But it's talked about in sports circles.
Well, okay.
As far as I'm concerned, no one talks about that one.
We do talk about it.
It's been talked about.
No, I know, but it because it's sports.
Hello.
The but let's follow the money.
I think these affiliates have been asking for probably since the writers, probably since the writer's strike, they've been saying, hey, ABC, can you take this guy off?
We could do reruns of Hogan's Heroes and make a lot more profit.
Just to back you up on that, if you had looked at the newsletter, I did.
Uh and I did when it came out.
When it came out.
Sorry.
When it if it came out, if you got one, uh, there is a chart in there showing the unbelievable fallout of the audiences for these late-night shows.
It is so bad.
How bad is it?
It's bad.
They they've dropped uh, I'd say 90% of their audience has been lost.
And Kimba was losing 40.
I mean, uh, they say that uh uh Colbert, which was overstaffed, was losing a hundred million a year.
Kim was losing 40.
40 million a year just down the drain, and and the audience is not showing any signs of recovery.
And all three networks.
And there you have it.
The bottom line is that Disney didn't want the backlash.
They didn't want, you know, they just want to get rid of Kimball.
I'm sure MBC wants to get rid of uh Fallon because of this very issue.
It's not proceeding anymore.
Yeah.
Well, it's very it's a good thing.
Logan's comedy runs would get more audience, it's cheap content.
You could put friends and it's cheap, it's free.
Yeah.
So this is a money issue.
They've been probably saying this for a long time.
And oh, by the way, our audience gets mad, and that's why they're not watching anymore because your guy is just making fun of their guy.
This has been a money issue, and Brendan Carr empowered them, particularly Nexstar, and uh what's the other outfit who used to be headquartered here in Austin?
Um, I know the other one that was that was upset was Sinclair, but I don't think they're in Austin.
Yeah, they're in Austin, were they?
They they their headquarters in Austin.
Or it was their broadcasting?
Yeah, it was.
I've Ron Bloom and I went there.
No, Ron Bloom and I went there.
We we pitched them on something a long time ago.
And it was news to me.
Well, that's and we talk with uh a muckety mug.
A muckety muck.
Yes, a muckety muck, a true muckety muck.
So the only guy who, of course, in a way, well, he waffles a bit at the end, but Rand Paul talked to Christian Wilkins from NBC, and he just called it straight up as it is.
Do you want to ask you broadly speaking about free speech?
Free speech.
Freedom of speech.
I want to play something that President Trump promised during his inaugural address, followed by comments that he made just this week, Tim.
By the way, I forgot to harp on the president for this comment during his inaugural speech.
Take a look.
I will also sign an executive order to immediately stop all government censorship and bring back free speech.
freedom of speech to America.
When somebody is given 97% of the stories are bad about a person, That's no longer free speech, it's no longer in it.
That's just cheating.
Senator, do you believe that President Trump is sending the message that he only supports free speech when it's speech that he agrees with?
Well, this is why it's kind of rich for Governor Shapiro also to come on and be outraged by censorship.
Was he asleep for the four years of the Biden administration when they did have censorship?
The FBI, Department of Homeland Security were sent to the offices of Twitter.
They were sent to the offices of Facebook.
Facebook was told to take take down information concerning the origins of the COVID virus, or they were being threatened with remove their liability protection or being threatened with being broken up by antitrust.
So we have had official uh censorship going on for many years now, and everybody on the left just looked the other way.
They actually had an office, an office of censorship.
So I applaud Trump for bringing that down.
Now, saying we're going after the FCC licenses is wrong and inconsistent with that.
I applaud Trump for getting rid of the censorship office in our government.
But uh I think people should discontinue this idea of uh policing hate speech or sending the FCC after networks.
Yeah, both of those are in his in his crosshairs, and rightly so, because they're they're morons.
Brendan carr is dumb and Palm Bandy may be even dumber.
The the thing that's amazing though, is that where ABC thought, wow, this is great.
We can dodge the bullet of getting rid of Kimmel because oh, there's you know, the only young people we have are the ones watching what is it, the zero point zero point seven rating, I think.
It's almost nothing.
More people listen to in the demographic, 18 to 49, more people listen to the no agenda show.
It's really it's really that bad.
But what it is is that bad.
But what's happened is because of the hatred towards Trump from the I guess your typical ABC late night viewer, they they've gotten the ire of all of their fans and and not just people who like Kimmel, but Disney fans and Disney fans.
I mean, the I know I'm sure you know some Disney fans.
These are people who do pilgrimages.
Um, you know, they or big buses, they they love Disney, anything that's Disney, they'll watch every movie.
Can I tell you something?
Yeah.
No.
Oh, I know a lot of people like that.
I do not know one person like that.
Well, that's interesting.
I know a lot of people like that.
Obviously, there's a lot of die hard Disney fans, and they are revolting, not as in their kind of revolting too, but they are revolting.
They have to be revolted.
They're revolting against ABC.
Here's a here's an example of uh some TikTok dude.
Okay, everybody.
So I uh as of today, I canceled my Hulu, my Disney Plus, my Paramount.
I never had ESPN, I would have canceled it anyway.
I cut up my Disney credit card.
Uh my Disney annual pass to the park has expired.
I was going I was thinking of renewing it.
I will not be very renewing it.
I refuse to stand on any Disney property.
I refuse to eat at any Disney establishment.
That is my little way of protesting my right to the First Amendment.
What they're doing on now, becoming state-run media is getting rid of everyone that disagrees with the current administration.
And that I have to draw the line.
I mean, there are other things, but this my right to say whatever I want to say, being taken away, no.
What I could watch, what I can't watch, no.
That doesn't flow with me.
So only way to get back at them is gotta get back at Disney.
Gotta get back at uh ABC because they cowered to a bully.
So they basically told them to get rid of these people.
Stephen Colbert was first, Jimmy Kidmill was second.
They will go after more.
Also daytime.
State-run media.
This is the beginning.
It's happening now.
It's happened before.
North Korea, China, Russia, state-run media, as of today.
1930s, 1940s, Nazi Germany.
Hitler became chancellor.
First thing he did went after radio, went after the print, the newspapers, state-run media.
Told the people what they can watch, what they can't watch.
Sorry.
Only way to make them feel it in the pocketbook.
I canceled it all.
What this brings to mind is something that you and Mo discussed some years ago about the about the idea that we're not going to hire people anything like this because the long-term effects are so negative.
This was some time ago when you talked about don't hire a black person because it's going to be trouble down the road.
This is the price you're gonna have to pay if you're gonna hire liberals at the level of Jimmy Kimmel.
Yeah.
Because you're gonna the price that now they're paying the price.
And they're gonna pay the price for when they get rid of the view.
It that they should have not had the shows on in the first place is what's gonna be the rationale for never hiring anybody like that again.
This is not a the way to go about this.
And it's worse because now big stars, big stars.
Actually, Cynthia Nixon um, you know, sex in the city, sure, but she's in Gilded Age, uh, a runaway hit series.
And here's her little 30-second bit.
Hey, I just canceled my Disney Plus and Hulu subscriptions, and they asked me why I hit other, and I wrote, Because I believe in the First Amendment, reinstate Jimmy Kimmel.
Now my whole family is really gonna miss Abbott Elementary.
We are really gonna miss only murders in the building.
But you know what?
We would miss the First Amendment a whole lot more.
Don't go to the theme parks, don't go on the cruises, cancel your subscriptions now.
Yeah, this is they are definitely paying the price.
But uh, they're paying their price.
If they hadn't had Kimmel in the first place, this wouldn't happen.
That's the that's the irony.
Now, since we're talking about First Amendment stuff, I do have one clip in this.
One more in my sequence here.
The last one, which relates to the woke guy talking about this is what Stalin did, this is what Hitler did, this is state-run, state-controlled media.
You want to hear about state controlled media, what woke boy?
This is my new friend Katie Hopkins.
Remember, I met her.
Uh Katie Hopkins was here in Frederick.
She's your pal now.
She's my buddy now.
Yes.
And uh, she was uh right down the right down the road, uh doing an interview with Laura Logan, going rogue with Laura Logan, and listen to this.
What my comedy shows do.
They allow people to laugh at the things you're not allowed to say, because I can just about get away with saying them now in the guise of comedy.
And uh it's uh it's a fine line.
I was arrested and interviewed under caution.
I haven't spoken about this yet.
Um, about three weeks ago.
Uh, and I'm waiting to be charged for the crime of um online communications, crime of speech.
For my Katie's, I do a pub night online called the Katie's Arms.
I love the Katie's arms.
So I've been arrested for that.
I see.
Because of what I said on my Katie's arms pub.
So she that's her her live stream where she drinks wine.
Have you ever seen you ever seen it?
No.
Yeah, she's just it's just her and her inner apartment.
She's drinking wine, she's making Snyder remarks.
Yeah.
And they arrested her for something she said.
That that's Hitler.
That's the stuff you're talking about.
Exactly.
And that's what's going on in the UK right now.
Oh.
I mean, when Lynnham was arrested, and he's not even a UK citizen that I for I think he's Irish or Scott, uh he might be Scott.
But whatever the case is that he comes into Heathrow, I think, and I said it on the show a couple of shows last show or the show before that.
I think Americans that do a lot of tweeting could possibly just be picked up when they show up at Heathrow.
Oh, well, it's funny you bring that up because I have a clip of an American.
Now she's not at Heathrow.
She already is living in the UK.
Uh and this is you know the GB News is making a big deal of this.
She's she's a member of something called the Free Speech Union, which is probably strike one.
Here she is as a cop uh comes to her house.
I'm a member of the free speech union, and I'm an American citizen.
Something that we believe you've been on Facebook has upset someone.
You're here because somebody got upset.
Is it against the law?
Am I being arrested?
You're not being arrested.
Then what are you doing here?
My plan was if you uh mention that it was you who got the comment.
You could just make an apology to the person.
I'm not apologizing to anybody.
I can tell you that.
I have to call you for an interview.
I'm here to talk to you about the allegation.
They've reported it to the police.
So what?
Obviously, we get a lot of reports on the case.
Are there no houses that have been burgled recently?
No rapes, no murders.
Yeah, that's what going on as well.
That's big.
Well, then why aren't you out there doing, you know, investigating those?
Because I've got to investigate everything that is reported.
Well, you're not investigating houses being burgled.
That's not my job today.
I don't mean to.
I know exactly the things I've said.
So the cop shows up at her house to talk to her about what she posted, and if she just goes along with him and apologizes to the person she offended, then the problem goes away.
Otherwise, you have to come downtown, we have to interview you.
By the way, didn't she sound a bit like Mimi?
No, not to me.
No.
To me.
She sounded very nervous and pissed.
Well, no.
Which does sound a little like Mimi, but no, the where she's like, I know exactly what I said.
You know, I'm not apologizing to anybody.
I could see Mimi saying that.
Well, there's that.
Yeah, well, that would definitely be the word age would be similar.
So, you know, it's like, come on.
But oh anyway, you had to you wanted to go to a clerk.
Yeah, I want to get this.
This we're talking about free speech, and I freedom of speech.
I'm not gonna allow it to say free speech.
I don't know why freedom of speech as opposed to free speech is so important to you.
Because one of these days they're gonna write some legislation that's gonna be free speech and it'll be something different than the First Amendment.
This happens all the time.
No, it's different now.
Hate speech like hate speech.
That that just hate of speech.
Hate speech.
That kind of hate speech kind of just crept in all of a sudden, and then we have our attorney general talking about it.
So no, it's freedom of speech.
I think it's I to me it's it's awkward uh uh structure to say freedom of speech when you mean uh free speech.
I don't mean that.
Free speech is this podcast.
This is free.
Free speech.
Okay, well, that's what I'm talking about, free speech.
Okay, free speech podcast.
Yeah.
So we had discussed Harvey Levin trying to get out of the fact that his his audience cheered.
Yes.
No, not his audience, his staff.
I'm not his audience, his staff, his entire staff cheered when Charlie Kirk was killed.
And he came on sheepishly saying, Well, nobody like that.
They weren't cheering about that.
Uh, nobody would be working here if they were that way.
Blah, blah, blah.
And I've gotten plenty of evidence.
I've seen him go on and off on Trump all the time.
So listen to now, so they bring up the Kimmel thing on the show.
And tell me that this guy didn't just hire people that hated.
I mean, they're just you can tell that this whole operation is staffed by these types of people.
They're all a bunch of liberals to an extreme.
Just listen to Harvey in the background during this teaser.
This is the beginning of a segment on on Kimmel, and Harvey going, as they're talking about free speech, they're he keeps saying R.I.P. R. I P. Listen to this.
It is a new day in America.
Uh, a day where it feels like um more than ever free speech uh and the first amendment.
R. I. P. R. Some people are saying R.I.P. uh to the First Amendment after Jimmy Kimmel was officially suspended but suspended indefinitely by ABC.
Well, that's interesting.
I thought that was a bit much.
And he was beside himself, R I P R I P and they did a teaser with R.I.P. R.I.P. So it like he's gonna be censored.
Maybe he could get fired because he's of course not.
He's a Jew.
The Jews run the media.
No way.
It's never gonna happen.
He has nothing to worry about.
RIP.
RIP, R. I. P. Brother.
He is yes.
His problem is he's a douche.
And I well, you don't actually watch TMZ, do you just picked up that clip somewhere?
I'm sure you don't watch it.
I occasionally watch it because I think it's I like the structure of the show.
I find it fascinating that Harvey, who is very petite male, a lot of people, you don't realize it because he's always high.
He's a petite male.
He is a petite male, really.
And compared, I mean, he and usually he's behind like a fence or behind a barrier, and he's kind of leaning over drinking uh soda.
Uh as he but when he comes out and stands amongst the others, he is the petite he's a petite male.
He works out a little bit.
But I would like to see him next to Greg Gutfield, and I wonder which one of the two is shorter.
Well, you know, small people with big heads are very successful on television.
That's the rule.
Yep.
I'm gonna lead you into your clips with a 40-second setup.
The Pentagon will now require credential journalists to sign a pledge to refrain from reporting on stories that have not been authorized for release, including unclassified information.
The newly named Department of War detailed in a 17-page memo that journalists who do not abide by the new policy will risk losing their access.
The new restrictions come as the Trump administration beefs up its attacks on the media landscape.
Defense Secretary Pete Hexeth stated that reporters will also no longer be allowed to freely roam the halls, adding that they must either follow the rules or go home.
U.S. journalists have denounced the new measures as unconstitutional, calling them an attack on the First Amendment, which guarantees freedom of the press.
So the press somehow believes that freedom of the press, which by the way, that no one calls it free press, you'll notice they do.
Okay.
Barry Weiss.
Yep.
Freedom of the press has nothing to do with where you walk or what you what you can grab.
It has to do with what you can say.
You can roam the halls of the Pentagon bull barging into whatever office you want to.
Clearly, that's what they think.
As according to Euro News, that's what they're doing.
Oh, they're all up in arms because we can't walk walk around the halls.
That's we have freedom of the press, man.
Free press.
Free press.
Free press is what my Chinese laundry does.
Um Pentagon clamped down.
This is from NPR.
There's only two clips, but they're they summarize it, I think.
Press corps that covers it.
There are some new rules to follow.
That is, if they want to keep their official credentials that allow them to report from inside the building.
It is worth noting the move came at the end of a week where the Trump administration took aim at First Amendment rights on several fronts.
President Trump tried to sue the New York Times.
ABC took late night host Jimmy Kimmel off the airwaves after the chairman of the FCC threatened the network stations unless they acted against the longtime Trump critic.
Trump also warned that broadcasters who air the voices of critics like Kimmel should lose their licenses.
Joining us to explain what this What?
I know.
But this is so slanted.
We just played the actual clip of what he said.
He didn't, there was none of that.
Like Yeah, I know.
This is great.
Critic.
Trump also warned that broadcasters who air the voices of critics like Kimmel should lose their licenses.
Joining us to explain what this latest move at the Pentagon means for reporters and for the rest of us is NPR Media correspondent David Fulkenflick.
Hi, David.
Hey Scott.
Tell us what exactly the new rule is.
Well, you know, Pete Heggseth came in as a Pentagon chief.
Uh he's a former Fox Friends uh weekend host, and he promised that it would be the most transparent Pentagon in history.
Instead, they've had very few press briefings, and now and they threw out, by the way, a number of media organizations from their slots at the Pentagon, including NPR and The Watch Post, the New York Times.
And now they're saying that reporters who want to report from inside the building uh have to pledge never to divulge or even gather any information that the Pentagon hasn't authorized for release, and that's including unclassified information.
I mean, that just doesn't sound like reporting.
It doesn't sound like reporting.
It doesn't sound like the kind of reporters you and I know.
I mean, these are people who often have done this for many years.
Many of them have, you know, covered military conflict and wars in faraway zones and have gotten to know military personnel from the grunts to the multi-star generals uh and commanders, uh, and you know, have gone through corridors and hallways, knocked on doors, not only to get scoops, but just to get expertise and understanding of uh of the the kinds of stories they're trying to bring to the American public and to the military personnel themselves.
How are the news organizations that cover the Pentagon responding to this?
Now, let me just say something to these hoidy toides here for a second.
I would be on board with what you're saying if for the past fifteen years, maybe even for the entire length of our of our free free speech podcast.
We hadn't been inundated with complete non-journalistic reports of sources say.
For communications.
And what I learned right off the bat from Vanita Zinn, who was my professor, you need to have two sources on the record to report something.
On the record.
We haven't heard an on the record in yeah in over a decade.
So you're not trying to try two decades, try two decades.
Yeah, possibly right.
So well, this was also nineteen eighties five, I think.
No.
Try four decades, whatever.
Um get out of here with your whoa, you know, this is not how reporters are.
Yeah, that's exactly how reporters operate.
You take leaks from all kinds of people with agendas from inside the building, which is the problem, of course.
And you know, we don't want you doing that anymore.
Yeah.
Okay.
Fine.
I just look at the sales numbers.
How are we doing?
Do we sell any stuff to Ukraine?
Yeah, it's good to go.
I think that's about right.
But yes, I think uh all that is is correct, and they've they've kind of they've gotten lazy.
Well, if you know what they could have done, if because of the internet, yes, that you're right.
Lazy is the word.
It used to be according to the Uganda Times.
Now that those are the good old days when you had the.
That's when the CIA could plant a story in the Uganda Times and they just pick it up.
They don't even do that anymore.
They don't even do that anymore.
Circular reporting.
You're right.
I haven't seen a report from the Uganda Times forever.
It's hopping.
I'm telling you, the Uganda is the U is there an actual Uganda Times?
I think there is a Uganda Times.
There probably is.
Okay, let's go to the finish this up.
Uh Scott, I think it's very striking uh that uh none of the TV networks that I've reached to out to, including Fox News itself, uh uh CBS, NBC, uh CNN have said anything publicly, uh issued any public statements.
Meanwhile, our new editor-in-chief, uh Tommy Evans, as well as Matt Murray, the executive editor of the the Washington Post and the New York Times corporately have released strong statements saying that this goes against First Amendment principles.
There's something called prior restraint.
That is that the government preventing the press or broadcasters from reporting the news before it's actually reported.
Uh that was taken more than 50 years ago to the Supreme Court, which upheld the idea that the government cannot do that in the Pentagon papers case involving the Nixon administration.
I mean, this makes it harder for us to reporters to this is a conflation of prior restraint means you can't stop the paper from printing a story.
Right.
That that's ready to go to the press.
It's got nothing to do with walking into offices, knocking on doors and then shooting the shit with some guy who's bored stiff on his desk.
I mean, come on.
By the way, there is most definitely a Uganda Times.
Yeah, it's the times everywhere, yeah.
That was taken more than 50 years ago to the Supreme Court, which upheld the idea that the government cannot do that in the Pentagon papers case involving the Nixon administration.
I mean, this makes it harder for us, the reporters who cover Washington to do our jobs.
Uh, David, why do you think people who read the news, who listen to the news, who watch the news, or just see it scroll by on their social media feeds should care about this development?
Aaron Powell Well, reporters are trying to give the American people an accurate understanding of what our military are uh is doing, what is you know, how our military are treated, and what's being done with their taxpayer dollars.
Uh, take the attacks by the uh you know Trump uh administration, the defense department against what they've characterized as Venezuelan drug boats.
Uh, there's been some question about that, and there have been some lawmakers in Capitol Hill, both parties who've raised questions about the legality of that.
You know, clearly uh Heg Seth would like to control what kind of information gets out about uh about that now contentious things.
The the idea of the strikes on nuclear sites in Iran, you know, the military told us they were incredibly successful.
Uh in subsequent days and weeks, we heard maybe not so much.
Right.
Again, the question is what kinds of information is the American people getting?
I don't think the Pentagon gets to decide what we learn about the Pentagon.
Wait a minute.
So in other words, the shooting of the uh drug boats, for example.
Uh, to understand how that works, we have to have a guy roaming the halls in the Pentagon just going randomly from door to door.
Are you kidding me?
Yeah, I need freedom of the press.
The Uganda Times is owned by the government of Uganda.
Here.
26.
I'm glad you took a deep dive into the Uganda Times for some unknown reason, out of the blue in the middle of the show.
Well, it's interesting that 26% is owned by the Ministry of State for Finance.
26% owned by the Ministry of Finance Planning and Economic Development, 19% the National Social Security Fund.
This is they have it split up.
Different ministries, everyone gets to get put their two bits in.
Yes, yes.
This is probably the way to go.
Yeah, that that's your state.
That's for a state run.
Yeah.
We don't have that here.
Not yet.
Not yet.
New York Times is like owned by Saudis and a Mexican.
I mean, come on.
Yeah, exactly.
By the way, uh, the Netherlands is on fire.
People have finally had it.
With the uh Yeah, sure.
With the well, it's interesting.
With the asylum seekers, you got clips?
It's all in Dutch, so no.
There's a lot of uh fireworks and yelling and fighting and setting stuff on fire.
But what's interesting is the main protesters who went to The Hague where the government is.
Uh this is big open open field called Mollyveld.
And that's where you do your demonstration.
You know, that's the place to go.
So you get thousands and thousands of people.
The majority of them who are all dressed in black with the skull masks.
Um football supporters of different teams, sometimes even rivals.
They banded together to say that they are sick of it.
They've had enough, they fought the cops, they set stuff on fire.
It's it's kicking off.
Uh, we'll see.
Well, uh yes, I mean, take my bike.
Exactly.
Take my bike.
Where's my bike, man?
Yes.
I gotta that's my theme.
I mean, you're picked that up.
You stole it.
I did not.
It's my theme.
We won't where's my where's my bike has always been my theme.
Oh, people go back and catch some clips from me bitching about the bikes.
Okay.
All right.
I'll give it to you.
Hey, just a little aside here.
Yeah.
I think you'll be interested in this.
This is right up your alley.
Okay.
We're going to the moon.
Uh, as early as next spring, NASA hopes to send astronauts back to the moon.
Oh, we can't wait for this to orbit the moon at least.
Okay, hold on a second.
Before we play these clips, the more the more of these that come out, the more I'm starting to take your side on the original.
Only I've got I'm now wondering, you had this thing you used to do to do soft peddle your, well, we never went to the moon, which is not an unusual commentary.
We had a famous pharmacist in the area that was a big advocate of this.
Yeah, but you said you I think you your original thesis was we never went to the moon, but we went later to the later, because they went seven times or six.
Ah, someone looked that up and get some clips.
I think I think I that could be documented.
And I would be I'm beginning to think that we maybe never went.
We didn't ever.
We didn't.
You not even for the later.
No, the whole thing.
Even Elon Musk is risky.
Even Elon Musk says that he would have to refuel.
They don't.
The whole thing is a big massive hoax.
And now the even the scientists at NASA who are so young.
Okay.
Here's what bot besides the losing the tapes and all the rest of it.
But here's what bothers me about these two clips that I have.
Okay.
Is why are we doing what they're gonna describe?
What do we need any of this for the way they're describing it?
Listen to this clip.
As early as next spring, NASA hopes to send astronauts back to the moon to orbit the moon at least.
The next step in a long plan to return to lunar landings and eventually to set foot on Mars.
Commander Reedweisman and the rest of the crew of Artemis II have been training for years.
When we leave planet Earth, we're zero miles an hour, and then when we come back in the atmosphere, we're doing 39 times speed of sound.
We profiled the Artemis II astronauts on the show about a year ago.
But on a mission like theirs, the people in space are just one part of a massive operation.
In fact, right now, NASA is recruiting volunteers here on Earth to help track the spacecraft as it makes its way to the moon and back.
Oh, wait, bring in some ham radio operators.
Volunteers like Scott Chapman helped NASA keep tabs on the automated uncrewed Artemis 1 mission in 2022.
After the spacecraft was no longer in sight, I assembled all those numbers into the format NASA asked for and uploaded it to their computer.
Chapman is an IT specialist in Virginia, and he mainly helps small businesses with computer issues.
But briefly in 2022, he got to Moonlight as a spacecraft tracker.
The spacecraft is transmitting at a fixed frequency.
However, when a transmitter and receiver are moving in relation to each other, either getting farther apart or coming closer together, the received frequency changes coming towards you.
The frequency seems to be getting higher, and then as it goes away from you, the frequency of what you hear gets uh lower as it goes past you.
And radio signals do the exact same thing.
Chapman is widely known in the amateur radio community and over the radio waves, he goes by his FCC issued handle, K4 KDR.
Much in the way he's not even an extra loser.
Widely known in the amateur radio community and over the radio waves, he goes by his FCC issued handle, K4 KDR.
Much in the way of local television might be does it.
Would you call that a handle?
No, that's his call sign.
Yeah.
It's not a handle.
It's like, oh, we have our local NBC station here and their handle is, you know, KNTV.
It's not a handle.
I'm looking him up right now.
Yeah, I look him up.
Yeah.
I'm looking him up in QRZ is where I'm looking them up.
Call sign of that local station is then the amateur radio hobby that is essentially your name on the radio.
With his antenna up, he learned NASA was looking for operators to assist in navigating Artemis One.
He wanted it Now I have a this confused me a little bit.
He says the further away you get, the frequency changes.
No, no.
As you no.
It's like uh the train coming and going past you know past you.
As the as you're as you're accelerating away, sound, yes.
No, as you no, the frequency would no, it's the same as sound sound and you know sounds a frequency.
So as you're going away, the the frequency that the signal would be transmitting would be changing, it would be lengthening, and as it's coming towards you, it would be it would be compressing.
And so you're gonna have these different freak the frequencies gonna s gonna alter just enough that you need a ham in the middle of nowhere to do this because we couldn't do it in 1969.
So I don't know how they got the signals back and forth.
Well, uh yeah, but the shift is minute.
I mean, that's like sidewalk.
I would think it would be fairly small.
Yeah, it's it's is that the double not doing a million miles an hour.
No, it's it's very minute, very very minimal.
Because you know, we bounce signals off the ionosphere, and there's you know, the the yeah, you tune it a little bit.
We're talking minor kilohertz uh variation.
Let me listen to that last bit again from this nerd with his with his baseball cap on backwards.
The spacecraft is transmitting at a fixed frequency.
However, when a transmitter and receiver are moving in relation to each other, either getting farther apart or coming closer together, the received frequency changes coming towards you.
The frequency seems to be getting higher, and then as it goes away from you, the frequency of what you hear gets uh lower as it goes past you.
And radio signals do the exact same thing.
Chapman is widely known in the amateur radio community, and over the radio waves, he goes by his FCC issued handle, K4 KDR.
Much in the way of local television might be designated as whatever the uh call sign of that local station is, then the amateur radio hobby that is essentially your name on the radio with his antenna up, he learned NASA was looking for operators to assist in navigating Artemis One.
He wanted in brother.
NASA's your your point is well made.
It's like what you have a 24.6 billion dollar budget, but we gotta get ham radio guys.
Okay.
Sure.
I'm logging into my QRZ account to get this guy's full details.
Yeah, go do I thought you'd have it by now, so while you're doing that, let's play part two.
I forgot my credentials, but I have it in my password manager.
At first glance, it seems overwhelming.
Certainly uh person living in a it was overwhelming, but it's what it wasn't overwhelming in 1969.
But it's overwhelming today.
Why are you taking my gig, man?
It's like all of a sudden you're you're on the sorts of reports and how everybody's breathless about it as though, oh, okay, that makes sense.
It doesn't make sense at all.
At first glance, it seems overwhelming.
Certainly, uh person living in a rural area of Virginia isn't going to be capable of monitoring the signals and reporting the data that they are looking for.
But I thought to myself, wouldn't it be nice if this project had one participant who had a very small system?
So I went ahead and replied, and much to my surprise was selected for the uh program.
Chapman's job tracking the signals beamed down from the automated spacecraft as it orbited the Earth.
Hobbyist, he had the tools, good enough for NASA.
I did have a one-meter dish, which you can hold in your hands, and that was mounted on a rotator on my roof.
So in the eyes of the people managing that program, they determined that I was maybe capable of receiving the signal, and ultimately I did.
Applications to help track the next mission, one filled with astronauts traveling further from Earth than any human has in 50 years, are due in late October.
Yeah, this is a bunch of nonsense.
They do this to, I think, to show that they're relevant because, you know, they've got citizens who are interested in this.
This guy's logbook isn't even on QRZ.
He's not a real ham.
Let me see.
We're sure he's a real ham.
No, but I mean, if you you gotta be uploading your log book, man.
Well, you do you mean he's not like a nut ball ham?
Yeah, exactly.
So this program I'm looking at volunteers worldwide to track lunar journey of NASA's Artemis One mission.
Look, I mean, this guy, oh, I love I love uh communicating with the International Space Station.
Oh, I I wait, wait, I I've got a thesis.
All right.
Fake.
You're gonna have a bunch of these hams, there's gonna be so many of them that they can't they won't have to worry about people saying that the whole thing was hoaxed.
No, how about this?
All you need is some satellite that sends down a signal, sh phase shift thing, you know, do a little frequency shift, and then say, hello, I am Artemis One, beep deep beep beep deep beep.
Maybe it's just to prove that it's real.
It's kind of the same thing you're saying, I believe.
Yours is a slightly better.
Um same basic thesis.
Let me see.
just to get the everyone involved.
So say, oh, look at all these people.
This confirms.
Hey, error.
Hey, error.
What frequency is Artemis One transmitting on.
So what frequency is Artemis One transmitting on Artemis One transmitted its main signals on the X-band around eight gigahertz for uplink and 7.2 for downlink.
NASA's go-to for deep space chatter.
But if you're hunting amateurs, check the harmonics near two gigahertz.
Folks like Scott Tilly picked those up easy from their backyards.
Oh, well, it's something NASA couldn't do.
Oh, we need help.
You're right.
It's a hoax.
They're hoaxing by getting all these amateurs to say, Yeah, I received the signal, man.
You know, I also This is a possibility that I have to accept.
I I also once, you know, I tracked the International Space Station, stood out on the back deck when we were still in Austin, like an idiot, pointing a Yagi antenna at the sky, and I got a message back from the International Space Station.
It could have been from Elon Musk's Starlink for all I know.
I couldn't see it.
You don't know if it's really Artemis One, could be anything in low low orbit.
And he's and so he has a one uh what do you have?
Uh a one mega what dish did he have?
One meter.
One meter disc.
Small.
Huh.
Yeah.
Two gigahertz.
Oh.
All right.
Sounds hoaxy to me.
This will continue, this saga.
I like it.
I like it.
And by the way, everyone's complaining like, well, I don't like the money we send to Israel because you know, we we can't eat at home.
Well, stop stop spending three times as much on this dumb stuff.
Who cares?
It's dusty.
We know that.
Well, we're talking about is you just mentioned Israel.
I do have a Gaza report.
Yeah.
And this is NPR's, you know, NPR has changed his voices, it's got new people.
And now they have they actually, I'm pretty sure this is Dracula.
Reporting from Gaza.
Take a listen.
Israeli airstrikes across Gaza City continue as the Israeli military forces residents out of the area, home to about one million people.
Gaza Health officials say at least 34 Palestinians were killed yesterday from air strikes.
And Pierz and As Babbas reports the situation is deteriorating rapidly for civilians unable to get out of Gaza City with many families running out of water.
In the heart of Gaza City, thirst is now spreading falser than the fear of bombs.
The municipality says 75% of centered water wells have been destroyed or damaged by Israel, leaving hundreds of thousands with little or no access to clean water.
Families still trapped north of the city have been unable to evacuate or forced to walk as far as 15 miles to reach the south.
Evacuating is expensive, as much as six thousand dollars to secure a vehicle out and then to stay.
Some have even returned home after failing to find a safe place in the Southern Gaza.
That is what Al Jamala family did.
After failing to find safety, they returned to their home early Saturday.
I want to suck your blood.
I was waiting for a good one.
Well, I think NPR blew it because what an opportunity they've missed.
They've missed a massive opportunity to slam President Trump and his entire extended family.
Global News in Canada had it.
Bezalel Smotrich had just been asked what he thought should happen in Gaza.
The controversial far-right minister answered that the first phase of urban renewal in the Strip was done.
The demolition and the time to build was coming.
She was good.
There's a plan for the work.
Smotrich says to listen to him.
There's a plan on President Trump's desk that will turn what's happening into a real estate I'm not kidding, he says it pays off.
Now the Washington Post earlier this month reported the Trump administration is considering a plan to run Gaza for a decade as a trusteeship.
Palestinians living in the enclave would be moved out, at least temporarily, while billions would be poured in to develop the territory as a tourism resort And high-tech manufacturing hub.
Residential areas would be built up inland away from the coast.
It was Trump's son-in-law who first floated the idea of developing Gaza, saying last year its waterfront property could be very valuable.
That idea seemed to stick in the mind of Donald Trump when he returned to the White House.
I don't want to be cute.
I don't want to be a wise guy.
But the Riviera of the Middle East, this could be something that could be so bad.
This could be so magnificent.
Well, the only person who appears to be speaking publicly about the plan is Smotrich, the ultranationalist leader of Israel's religious Zionist Party.
Reported Washington plan for Gaza is being criticized by observers and legal experts.
Many say any displacement of Palestinians out of the enclave would be coercive at best and violate international law.
Smotrich, on the other hand, appears to be saying it doesn't go far enough that Israel deserves a part of the land in Gaza in return for the money it's spent on the war.
Man, what an opportunity MPR missed.
They got sound bites and everything.
By the way, you know who's gonna pay for this uh this uh Riviera?
The Arabs.
They're all in on it.
Saudi Arabia, Qatar.
They're like, oh yeah, this is good.
They are.
They're they're they're being very coy about it.
Of course.
As uh as one of our boots on the ground said, even the attack in Qatar, the Qatar is like, uh, it's not about sovereignty, but just don't hit any civilians.
That's not okay.
No one likes Hamas, elected by the people of so-called Palestine in 1988 with their kill all Jews.
It's really amazing.
The the lack of historical knowledge uh of people everywhere is just flabbergasting.
Who who really occupied those territories?
Syria, Jordan, and Egypt.
Those guys get away scot-free.
It's amazing.
Uh and I'm pretty sure the Palestinians will be sent to Syria.
That's why President Trump made nice with the terrorists over there.
Eh, you take him.
Because Egypt doesn't want them.
Egypt doesn't want them, Jordan doesn't want them.
They don't.
No, Jordan gave up.
I mean, the the West Bank, which is actually East, is actually the West Bank of Jordan.
Yes, yeah.
Yeah.
They fought a war over that.
Anyway.
Um, meanwhile, more importantly, back home, uh, didn't get as much play as it should have, but the president uh wow.
He came out with the couple of executive orders um regarding immigration.
Very interesting.
Uh the first one is a while he was on his way back from the UK, he came up with a an immediate, you know, uh executive order to be implemented immediately regarding H1B visas.
One of the most abused visas is great.
Oh, it's it's gets really good.
Hold on.
One of the most abused visa systems in our current immigration system has been the H-1B non-immigrant visa program.
This is supposed to allow highly skilled laborers uh who work in fields that Americans don't work in to come into the United States of America.
Uh, what this uh proclamation will do is raise the fee that companies pay to sponsor H-1B applicants to 100,000.
This will ensure that the people they're bringing in are actually very highly skilled and that they're not replaceable by American workers.
So it'll protect American workers, but ensure that companies have a pathway to hire truly extraordinary people and bring them to the United States.
We need workers.
We need workers, we need great workers, and this pretty much ensures that that's what's gonna happen.
I think Sean, you agree with it?
Well, they're 100,000 per year.
So the whole idea is no more will these big tech companies or other big companies train foreign workers.
They have to pay the government a hundred thousand dollars, then they have to pay the employee.
So it's just not economic.
If you're going to train somebody, you're Going to train one of the recent graduates from one of the great universities across our land, train Americans, stop bringing in people to take our jobs.
That's the policy here.
A hundred thousand dollars a year for H1B visas, and all of the big companies are on board.
We've spoken to them about the gold cards.
They love it.
They really love it.
They need it.
Now that's that part of the end.
Are you sure they love it?
Are you sure that the big tech companies love it?
Because the Indians abroad in India, they sure don't love it.
It's the latest effort by the Trump administration to curb or raise more money from legal immigration.
Companies will now have to pay an annual $100,000 fee on H1B visa applications.
No, it's annual.
It has to be renewed.
A move that deals a major blow to the U.S. tech industry, which relies heavily on workers from India and China.
It is a loss for America, not India.
Those who go abroad and can't pay that much money for the visa.
We looked in the office is here.
And when they work in India, which is already making economic progress, it would contribute to that.
So I think this hike is beneficial for us.
The Indian government says the plan is likely to have humanitarian consequences, particularly the disruption caused to families.
President Donald Trump's threat to crack down on H1B visas has become a major flash point with the tech industry, which relies on H1B visa hold it more than any other sector of the U.S. economy.
Supporters of the program, including Tesla CEO Elon Musk, say it brings in highly skilled workers, essential to filling in talent gaps and keeping firms competitive.
The Trump administration, on the other hand, says hiking the fee will mean more opportunities for American workers.
The country would rather not have to pay a hundred thousand dollars.
But uh they'd rather how do you do that?
You hire Americans.
So there's an incentive to hire an American.
But there may be instances where it's better off doing through expertise or whatever it may be.
The new fee is going into effect Sunday.
It will not be applied to existing holders of valid visas re entering the country.
Uh, from what I hear, there's a there's entire groups online who are um uh making res flight airline reservations and that that they don't intend to take, but keeping them up until the last minute and then canceling so that so that these so they can't come back in before the deadline and sneak into the country.
It's probably our own spooks doing it.
Well, talking about it brought brings up a point which I want to read a letter.
A letter, not an email, but a letter.
I'm sorry.
I I print mine out, so to me it's like a letter.
All right.
Um regarding Americans to getting these jobs, and something we discussed is from uh producer Trevor.
ITM, I wanted to elaborate on the other producer who said Zoomers can't use a tape measure.
As 26-year-old carpenter and tradesman, I see this all the time with new hires.
As to what they don't understand.
For example, you ask them to cut a piece of lumber at say 120.
I'm sorry, 127 and five sixteenths.
First of all, they ask, how do I find out how long it is?
Oh no.
And then once you tell them to use this thing, also known as a tape measure, uh, they then have absolutely no clue what a sixteenth is or how to read the tape.
So you explain that there's sixteen marks on the tape measure between each inch and and count each mark as one sixteenth.
Then you go and say something like, cut that at sixty-five and three-eighths.
And they have no idea what an eighth is.
And it's easy, an entire day, an entire day worth of explaining how to use a tape measure.
Well, that is Well, you're not gonna get many uh engineers at the highest level of uh H1B dumb that if you can't even do that.
Well, maybe everyone will start stop dumbing down our children and uh what consider uh you know changing the whole department of education, all of this started during was it Reagan?
Carter.
Carter.
I mean, all of this was a bad idea.
We're doing it.
Reagan tried to get rid of it.
He failed.
Yeah.
And it just got worse and worse and worse.
So that was only half of the announcement.
The big announcement is the one we've been waiting for.
The gold card.
So this executive order is entitled the gold card.
It will set up a new pathway, a new visa pathway for foreigners of extraordinary ability who are committed to supporting the United States for a payment of one million dollars to the U.S. Treasury, or if a corporation is sponsoring them, two million dollars by that corporation, and that will give them access to uh tax divided visa treatment uh as part of this new gold card program.
One of the biggest problems we have is that people they go to the best schools and they do great and they get great marks, and then they're throwing out of the country, you're not allowed to stay in this way.
A corporation will be able to send like a signing bonus in baseball and people will be able to get them to stay in the country, and I think it's gonna be tremendously successful.
How can you say if you want to make sure?
So historically, the employment green card program led in 281,000 people a year, and those people on average earned $66,000 a year on average, and they were five times more likely to go on assistance programs with the government.
So we were taking in the bottom quartile below the average American.
It was illogical, the only country in the world that was taking in the bottom quartile.
So what we are doing now is we're going to stop doing that.
We're going to only take extraordinary people at the very top.
Instead of people trying to take the jobs from Americans, they're going to create businesses and create jobs for Americans.
And this program will raise more than a hundred billion dollars for the Treasury of the United States who will use for cutting taxes and paying down debt.
Now, okay, hold one second.
Yeah.
So about a year ago, or no, no, I'm sorry, early in the Trump administration.
It had to be just what five months ago.
Yeah.
He brought up this gold card idea.
And my understanding then was the gold card cost five million dollars and guarantees you citizenship.
No.
Um what happened to that?
Well, that's the platinum card.
You did see, they didn't talk about that.
Uh Trump card.gov.
The Trump gold card is gold card is here.
Unlock life in America.
So you get exclusive.
The website is just like a credit card company.
It's great.
Exclusive privileges.
Now, the Trump gold card low interest.
Well, yes, listen to this.
The Trump gold card for a processing fee after DHS vetting, a $1 million contribution receive U.S. residency in record time with the Trump gold card.
But then you have the Trump Platinum card.
Listen to this.
Sign up now and secure your place on the waiting list for the Trump Platinum card.
So I guess it's coming.
For a processing fee, and after DHS vetting, a five million dollar contribution.
You will have the ability to spend up to 270 days in the United States.
Here comes without being subject to U.S. taxes on non-U.S.
tax income.
This is this.
Come on in, people.
All you rich British people, Yulamis, come on in.
That's a very interesting twist.
That is an interesting twist to get rich people who are sick of what's going on in Europe, especially.
Yep.
And maybe even some Chinese.
And have all your money sent to America and uh no income tax.
That's dynamite.
That's a good idea.
Yeah.
You got to see this website.
It's the president with an eagle.
Well, okay.
What is it?
Trumpcard.gov.
You're gonna laugh.
I'm sure.
This guy, this guy is amazing.
Trump card is so good.
45th and 47th, the president of the United States, little American flag there.
Got a little presidential stuff.
Yeah, he's on the card.
Of course he is.
With the eagle.
It's so good.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
Yeah.
And do you know how many Brits and Dutch and French all all email me?
Yeah.
I know.
It's perfect.
It's perfect.
This is so amazing.
There's also a go there's a gold card and a corporate gold card.
Corporate gold card is even funnier.
It's I mean, you I wonder if you can get Miles.
Ooh, you go further down, there's an animated eagle.
Oh, where's the animated eagle?
He's right at the bottom.
It says submit your application, and the eagle turns its head.
Oh, he does.
Someone put some work into this one.
Yeah, this is not a slouch of a sight.
Oh, designed in DC by the National Design Studio.
Oh, well, good job, everybody.
This is too funny.
It's the most American thing I've ever seen.
Wow.
Unlock life in America.
Yeah.
There are so many, you know, we should also have a green card, you know, like the green.
Well, no, I guess you can't call it the green card.
You know, we should the what uh what we need a level for people with like only a hundred thousand.
Diners.
Diner's club card.
Trump diners card.
Yes, exactly.
Uh I I don't know.
I just get a I get a kick out of it.
It's just funny to me.
It's just funny.
I'm sure somebody finds it offensive.
Well, probably if offensive that we're talking about.
In that same uh in that same sash, oval sash.
The what?
The oval sash sessions a short for session, sesh.
In that same oval sash.
Sash sesh, yes, session, sesh.
You call the you're you're gonna be a stickler about freedom of speech, but you're gonna use terms like sesh.
Yes, and sus.
I'm gonna use all these terms.
Sus?
Sus, yeah, you don't know where you been, man.
Sus used to be used to sus something out.
No, that's double S. Sus S-U S is suspect.
Suspicious sus.
Wow.
Um, here's what the president said about uh former president Biden.
Joe Biden didn't know what he was doing.
He had a man that didn't know what he was doing.
We had a man, by the way, that uh didn't approve if you take a look at what's happening in Congress.
We had a man that signed everything with almost everything with uh autoplan.
And he didn't tell the people from the autoplan, whoever was using the one man that used it predominantly said that Biden only spoke to him twice, and it was only about the weather.
So those pardons that he gave are illegal.
He gave illegal pardons, and that includes the congressman that destroyed and deleted all the information from J6.
They deleted everything because it turned out that they were wrong.
It turned out that I offered 10,000 National God or soldiers, whatever they wanted, and you wouldn't have had a problem.
And they turned it down.
Nancy Pelosi turned it down, and the mayor of Washington, DC turned it down.
They deleted everything and they destroyed it.
Illegally destroyed it.
And Biden gave them pardon.
And Biden gave a lot of other people parts that frankly would be in jail if it wasn't for those buttons.
But those buttons now are illegal.
Illegal.
Gonna go after that.
Yeah, they're gonna try.
I don't know how they're gonna, how far they're gonna get.
Well, the the big thing, um, which I'm sure you heard was um, let me see.
It was uh the president's uh uh truth is truth to Pam Bondi.
Uh I thought I had a clip of that.
Um where he basically uh went on truth social and posted a truth and said, uh Pam Bondy, what are you doing, Pom Bandy?
You you gotta like arrest these people.
Uh where is it?
Oh, I guess I didn't.
I thought I clipped that.
Oh well, nobody's arresting anybody.
We already know that.
Well, I think to what the way I read it was President Trump is on board with getting her out.
That's how I read it.
After the after the Miller uh the Miller Pod fiasco.
I think she's on the way out.
Because it was she hasn't done anything.
No.
And it does appear as though she's just a dud.
And you're right.
See she sachets when she walks.
Which is a bit somewhat annoying to be honest about it.
Let me read this to you.
Let me see.
I have it here somewhere.
It was uh it was he didn't end it with thank you for your attention to this important matter, which meant he was really pissed.
Yeah.
That would be true.
Yeah.
Everyone has the headline, but why don't they just post a picture of it?
Oh my goodness.
Uh it really is.
Oh, he deleted the post, apparently.
Okay.
Well though he did.
Well, let me see.
Just to make that's unusual for him.
Yes, to make it more sus.
Uh but by the way, we have some other uh suggestions from the from the troll room, the coal card.
Amazon offers only employees, please.
The um coal card, the brown card, the algae card, the uh jelly of the month card.
There you go.
Jelly of the month, American Jelly of the Month.
Yeah.
Uh let's see.
Uh this was there was a president was at the um where was he at?
The Cornerstone Institute.
Have you heard of the Cornerstone Institute?
No, I've never heard of them.
Well, it was a big gala.
Uh with gays?
Yeah.
Yeah, the A-Gay.
Of course.
Let me see.
The Cornerstone Institute, American Cornerstone Institute.
Who are these people?
Oh, the Ben Carson's on the on the cover here.
They got American Cornerstone Institute.
What are these guys do?
Well, so they had a gala.
Yes, probably with.
And uh the president spoke there in Tuxedo, no less.
Then he says something pretty interesting.
Marty McCarry who's fantastic, he's done the mercy.
He's done great.
Thank you.
He's done great.
He's really amazing.
And they're really working on it with Bobby.
They're working on it.
Bobby's so non-controversial.
I wish we could get somebody who's a little bit more exciting in there.
And uh, but they're doing something.
And I think we have, frankly, that's a big announcement.
I think we have a bigger announcement coming.
I hope on Monday, Marty.
It's enough.
We have to announce.
We have to make the announcement.
It's so big.
We can't let people keep doing this.
It's I don't want to wait any longer.
We don't need anything more.
And if it's wrong, it's right.
It's not gonna be wrong, but if it is wrong, it's it's fine that we have to do it.
Because we're gonna have an announcement on autism on Monday.
Gotta be Monday.
I don't want to do a Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.
And I think it's gonna be a very important announcement.
I think it's gonna be one of the most important things that we will do.
Because what's happened with autism.
Do you know that if you go back 15 years, 15 years, maybe a little bit longer.
It was one in ten thousand children at autism.
Bobby told me I don't I d it's hard to believe that this is correct.
That as of recently, it was one in ten boys.
Oh.
Big uh big announcement.
Not Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Monday, Monday.
It's gonna be Monday.
American Cornerstone Institute is Ben Carson's uh outfit.
Dr. Ben Carson.
Yeah, he's very rope.
He's respected.
Yeah, he is.
I think he's getting publicity, but he's respected.
Yeah, I think he's getting the presidential medal of freedom from the president.
Well, that's uh you says you brought up the autism.
I do have a series of vax clips.
Well, yay.
Vax mania.
This was played out because they're they're all everyone's oh, they're gonna do this, they're gonna do that.
They don't do anything, of course.
This is typical.
It's like the like a James Comer congressional committee.
Uh-huh.
They they're gonna oh they're gonna put the piece, they got that they're putting the dots together, they're gonna get Biden to Biden kidding, you know, they're gonna get gonna find a find the banks, they're gonna find every This and that, and then nothing comes of it.
So let's listen to the they so they're all bent out of shape about Kennedy's new VAX panel, and uh they haven't changed anything, but here we go.
Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has promised to change the country's vaccine policies, and during contentious meetings at Atlanta this week, vaccine advisors for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention began to do just that.
The panel was handpicked by Kennedy.
NPR Health Correspondent Ping Wong was at their two day meeting and joins us now.
Hi Ping.
Hey Scott.
Hey, Scott.
What kind of changes did the advisors make?
So they voted to narrow the recommendation on the COVID booster shot, and they also made a change in the childhood vaccine schedule of recommending against a measles and chicken pox combo shot for young children.
And while these changes weren't as drastic as some medical and public health experts had feared.
Stop the clip.
So that's it.
By the way, you're gonna hear a bunch of clips here where they're moaning and groaning and moaning and groaning about the about these massive changes.
One, the COVID shot.
They kind of changed the way they're looking at it.
Two, they're gonna split off the chicken pox shot, but you still gotta get all these shots.
That's it, by the way.
I'm just gonna tell you that in advance.
That's that that's the big horrible news.
Well, to be fair to NPR, we also are able to fill about 45 minutes talking about Florida ounces.
So the recommendation on the COVID booster shot, and they also made a change in the childhood vaccine schedule of recommending against a measles and chicken pox combo shot for young children.
And while these changes weren't as drastic as some medical and public health experts had feared, this meeting did show that these members who Kennedy chose after firing the entire panel back in June, it's starting to figure out how this works, and they're starting off on an ambitious agenda backed by Kennedy, who has a history of being very critical of vaccines.
Let's just make this news you can use for a moment.
I'm sure a lot of people listening are wondering can I let's make this news you can use?
I think we should use that.
That's a great slogan, John.
no agenda news you can use works and they're starting off on an ambitious agenda backed by kennedy who has a history of being very critical of vaccines wait stop again let's just make this This this ambitious agenda is what I just said.
Yeah.
Changing the way we look at COVID vaccines, and we're gonna split off one of the vaccines.
Very ambitious.
Very ambitious.
It's very ambitious.
Very ambitious.
How this works.
And they're starting off on an ambitious agenda, backed by Kennedy, who has a history of being very critical of vaccines.
Let's just make this news you can use for a moment.
I'm sure a lot of people listening are wondering can I go into a pharmacy, a CBS, whatever, and get a vaccine shot like I have the last few years?
Can I go into a pharmacy, a CBS, whatever, and get a vaccine shot like I have the last few years?
The answer is mixed.
So in some states, yes, and in other states it's not clear.
And that's because the group has recommended the vaccine to everybody under something called shared clinical decision making, which means that patients are supposed to talk to a medical provider about risks and benefits before they get one.
But at this point, billions of COVID shots have been given out.
So this kind of counseling would add a new hurdle.
So wait a minute.
So they're gonna tell you that the shot is maybe dangerous, or it can do this and that and the other thing, and that's bad.
But what they've already given look, Adam.
Yes, Adam, Adam, Adam.
Yes, John.
You never call me Adam.
This must be serious.
They've given out a billion shots.
Yeah.
So what's what's the big deal?
Just keep giving shots out.
Well, what what could possibly be wrong with that that idea?
Just you've given a billion out, and you're I'm sure that uh Scott asked that very question in clip number two.
Wrong.
Also, the panel wanted input on what goes into that counseling.
They voted to add more discussion about theoretical, theoretical, theoretical, theoretical risks to the vaccine information sheet.
And Met Saf Levy, the panel member who led that discussion, focused on things he said were unknown.
Do we know all the answers?
No.
Do did we hear a satisfactory explanations from the companies and the FDA?
Absolutely no.
Okay, one thing about that clip, which I emphasize there.
Yes, I heard it.
Theoretical.
They're gonna give you the theoretical risks.
No.
These aren't theoretical risks.
No, that's a lie.
These are actual risks.
Total lie.
These are documented contraindications and and and side effects that have been, they don't make them up.
I mean, if if it was anal leakage, you wouldn't make that up.
You wouldn't put it in.
It's not a it's not a theoretical risk.
She says she uses a propagandistic term theoretical risk.
It's not theoretical.
Take away their license.
Oh.
You know.
Now think about it.
You could do that with NPR stations.
I'm gonna start to complain.
Yes, write a letter.
So that information sheet for consumers could go from one that summarizes the most important documented side effects of the COVID vaccine, things like fevers, body aches, a rare risks, a rare risks, a rare risk of heart problems for young men.
To one that includes a lot of speculation.
Speculation, speculation, which could confuse people and dissuade them from getting vaccinated.
Okay, so that's clearly the headline here, but I'm wondering what else was on the table.
Hold on a second.
What is her name again?
I need to look her up now.
What is her name?
Oh, she they said it at the very least.
Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has promised to change the country's vaccine policies.
And during contentious meetings in Atlanta this week, vaccine advisors for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention began to do picked by Kennedy.
Okay, our health correspondent Ping Wong was Pengong Wong.
Penguan.
Penguin.
Goodness, how do I spell that?
Peng Ping.
Ping Wong.
Ping Wang Ping Wong.
Ping White, Pinguang.
I'm now a racist.
I can't believe it.
No, you are.
You are not me.
Okay, it's Pien Pen Hong, P I E N H-U-A-N-G.
Ping Hong Ping Hong.
Okay, I'll look her up while we play clip number three.
So that information sheet for consumers could go from one that summarizes the most important documented side effects of the COVID vaccine, things like fevers, body aches, a rare risks, a rare risks, a rare risk of heart problems for young men.
So one that includes a lot of speculation.
Speculation, speculation, which could confuse people and dissuade them from getting vaccinated.
Okay, so that's clearly the headline here, but I'm wondering what else was on the table.
So do you think Penn Wong is a doctor or has some uh some expertise in the medical field when that she is the correspondent here for?
Would you not think I I'm guessing she's a drug salesman?
Let's see.
She uh joined NPR in 2019 as the newsroom's first reflect America fellow, working with shows, desks, and podcasts to bring more diverse voices to air and online diversity higher.
She's a DI hire.
Her reporting with NPR's visuals team on tracking COVID-19 data was...
Won her an Edward R. Murrow Award.
Yeah, we haven't won that.
Her uh not yet.
Wong's experiences span categories and continents.
Here we go.
She was the executive producer of Data Made to Mata, a podcast.
Whoa, there's an Edward R. Merle award topic right there.
Data Mata.
That's a podcast from the MIT Sloan School of Management.
And oh and she has taught.
What do you think she has taught at the Northeastern University?
Communications.
Podcasting.
What?
Yes.
She's taught there's a class in podcasting at Northeastern.
Apparently, she has taught podcasting at Northeastern University.
How come I never get these gigs?
How come you weren't contacted by her for some syllabus information?
Podcasting course Northwest.
I gotta find it.
Northeastern.
Northeastern?
Oh.
Well, what's new?
Eastern University.
Well, I can't wait to see this.
Do they have a minor?
It's a minor.
But you can get a minor in podcasting.
Actually, get a degree.
Yes.
Wow.
I should get an honorary degree.
I'll do the the commencement speech.
In an era of profound disruption for legacy media podcasting has emerged as one of the most durable and successful features of the new media and information ecosystem.
Listeners, listenership continues to rise with devoted audiences for long form audio storytelling.
Like she's doing storytelling right here.
Narrative news, true crime, personality-driven interview shoes, etc.
shows, etc.
This minor is for students from a variety of disciplines interested in learning interviewing, performance, research, and production skills required to create high quality nonfiction audio programs in a variety of formats.
I'm betting dollars to 10 bucks on the line with anybody.
Okay.
That she credits Adam Carolla with inventing podcasting.
Yes.
You only you only need a 2.0 grade average to get in.
This typical for podcasters.
For podcasters, yeah.
Podcast.
Okay.
All right.
Uh, clip four.
So there was a proposal to recommend that states require prescriptions for COVID vaccines, which would make them much harder for patients to get.
And after a charged discussion on it, it was defeated.
And the panel also tabled a proposal to change the hepatitis B vaccine schedule for babies.
Now, some members said that the current policy, which recommends a shot right after birth, is working fine, and they saw no reason to change it.
Now there was some confusion, and it did seem at times that members didn't seem to fully understand how their votes would affect policies and coverage.
To that point, what is the impact of these votes?
What do they affect?
This group's recommendations form the basis for which vaccines are covered by health insurance or subsidized through federal programs.
And an example of how that works is to look at the other vote that they did take on the MMRV vaccine.
That's a combination shot for measles, mumps, rubella, and chicken pox.
And this vaccine comes with a slightly higher risk of causing fevers that can lead to seizures in children under four.
Kids generally recover from them pretty quickly.
What?
Wait a minute.
So a kid under four gets a stupid shot and they have seizures.
Yeah.
But they recover, they tend to recover rather quickly.
I don't want my kid having seizures.
Theoretical.
Theoretical seizures, not actual seizures, just theoretical.
That's unbelievable.
It's completely believed off.
Yeah.
I think we finish off here.
They can also get the same protection from getting the MMR and the chicken pox shot separately.
So that's how most kids get it.
But up to 15% of parents asked for the combo shot, and here's why, according to pediatrician Cody Meissner, who's the only member who served on this panel before.
Some parents don't want to administer.
Wait a minute.
I thought they kicked everybody off.
This guy has served on it before.
That's what they said.
They kicked everybody off, put a new group in, but this guy was there before.
How does that work?
Some parents don't want to administer two doses of a vaccine.
If they can receive one and get the same degree of coverage.
Why are we taking away that that option?
This is coverage, access, coverage, access.
We already know the insurance company said they're going to cover the COVID vaccine.
We had that on the last show.
Yeah.
So it's this is just more of the same.
CBS had a report about this, which I have cued up for us.
There was pushback during today's meeting of the CDC's vaccine advisory committee as the panel debated a new recommendation for the combined MMRV shot.
But if a parent wants to get uh a single dose, why are we taking away that that option?
The same guy, same clip.
Isn't that amazing?
Yeah.
Uh a single dose.
Why are we taking away that that option?
The proposal, children under four should get one shot for measles, mumps, and rubella, and then a separate one for Veracella, better known as chicken pox.
This recommendation is going to create more tension among the public.
Earlier this year.
Oh yeah.
Uh I'm confused.
It's not that hard.
Separate one for Veracella, better known as Chicken Pox.
This recommendation is going to create more tension among the public.
Earlier this year, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. fired all the panel members and picked their replacements.
Some who share his vaccine skepticism.
Thursday, the committee chairman defended the new group.
You have also been called anti-vaxxers.
But the stance is not only pro-children, but also pro-science, pro public health, and pro-vaccines.
Here on Capitol Hill, the fire CDC director told lawmakers she was pressured by Secretary Kennedy to rubber stamp the committee's recommendations without first considering the scientific evidence.
He just wanted blanket approval.
The panel is also debating changes to the hepatitis B vaccine recommendation.
Much of the data is considered pretty settled.
Dr. Jody Guest is the senior vice chair of the Department of Epidemiology.
She said most of the data is pretty settled.
Listen to that again.
He just wanted blanket approval.
The panel is also public health and pro vaccines.
Here on Capitol Hill, the fire CDC director told lawmakers she was pressured by Secretary Kennedy to rubber stamp the committee's recommendations without first considering the scientific evidence.
He just wanted blanket approval.
The panel is also debating changes to the hepatitis B vaccine recommendation.
Much of the data is considered pretty settled.
Dr. Jody What does that mean?
The data is settled.
Most of the data is considered pretty settled.
Yeah, that's a vague thing.
You know, by the way, what they're they're they're they're gett defending this woman.
They should be playing.
I don't have the clips, but I could go back and get them.
It Rand Paul grilled her in front of Congress, and she's an idiot.
He just wanted blanket approval.
The panel is also debating changes to the hepatitis B vaccine recommendation.
Much of the data is considered pretty settled.
Dr. Jody Guest is the senior vice chair of the Department of Epidemiology at Emory University.
She says these vaccines are safe and effective.
And there's not new evidence out there that we have been following.
There's not new evidence out there that we have been following.
Is this woman a lawyer?
So there may be evidence out there, but we're not following it.
We don't follow them on Twitter.
It would show that you would want to change the guidance.
Dr. Guest also warns that is that is wow.
I can't believe that.
So there is evidence out there, but we're not following it, so we don't make any changes.
And there's not new evidence out there that we have been following that would show that you would want to change the guidance.
Dr. Guest also warns any changes could lead to health insurance.
Companies limiting coverage.
No.
No, they want your kids sick.
They want seizures.
Come on.
They're not going to change that.
It's a small investment.
Cover the vax.
Customer for life.
You know, you want to take some uh wagers on what the big announcement is on autism Monday.
What do you think?
Well, here's what I can't be okay.
So far, Kennedy has been thwarted at every turn, and they're still going after him.
And this new panel is useless.
And they're still gonna give the kids 80 shots or whatever it amounts to.
Including the HEP B shot four minutes after they're born, which is a Chris.
That was in the clip as well.
It's on the table.
I'm guessing they're gonna come up with nothing.
It's the big announcement's gonna be something that's inconsequential.
We'll give every child a gold card.
Um, obviously from what we've been looking at since uh the discredited uh uh report, uh, what's the uh uh research, discredited research from Andrew what was his name again?
The I don't know.
Why isn't uh no?
Um, let me ask the let me ask the the the bot.
Hold on a second.
Who was the scientist who did research that proved autism was caused by vaccines but was discredited?
Thank you.
Well, that sucked.
Shall we try it again?
Who was the scientist uh who did a research survey that showed that vaccines cause autism and was discredited, disbarred, and thrown out of society.
That'd be Andrew Wakefield.
Yes, okay, thank you.
Long way to go.
Wakefield.
Wakefield.
Okay.
That that's what I would be hoping because at least millions of parents would have an answer.
And we could have a lot of lawsuits.
That's the problem right there.
Well, maybe it's not, maybe it's a benefit if we can sue a lot of these companies.
Well, I would be, yeah.
Also, if they just take these advertisers off the air, that would help.
Well, they're gonna have to do so.
They don't own the media.
They're gonna have to do four minute ads.
Of course.
Four minute ads, which would be funny.
Yeah.
Because everyone would be like, oh, these ads suck.
This this medication sucks.
I don't I don't want all that.
Because they have to have all of the side effects in the ad.
That would be good.
Okay, so I got the clips.
If we have how much time would we have before we go to a break?
Well, it depends.
What's your what's your topic?
Well, this is a lot of clips here.
This is the clips you wanted for Matt Gates' show where the guy who's embedded with the Russian army.
Mm-hmm.
Uh goes on and on about how Ukraine is not what we think it is.
And I it this may be a piece of pure propaganda.
I think we should do it.
I think we should do it now.
I it could be a piece of propaganda.
It turns out I mentioned in the last show, and I got a couple of notes mentioning other people, I guess, that have been embedded in the Russian army that are Western reporters and they're I don't know who they are, never heard of them.
Okay.
I have this guy here is somewhat obscure as me as far as I can tell.
I don't know if these reports are accurate.
Yeah, with the disclaimer is clear.
It's hypothetical uh embedded.
I have no idea, but I think it's definitely worth listening to.
And Matt Gates, a former congressman is not a dumb idiot.
No.
And so he the fact that he's got this guy on, his name's Pearson Sharp.
Spook name.
It's a spook name.
Is he in Brit?
No, but now she mentioned the spook name.
He has certain characteristics as possible, and he has a a kind of a spook joke at the beginning of his presentation.
You'll hear it.
OAN investigative reporter Pearson Sharp, host of The Sharp Report here on One America News, has traveled to the front lines.
He's spent time with the troops fighting this war, and he joins us now from Russia.
Pearson, first of all, it's it's good to see you safe and sound.
It looked from some of the snippets of your reporting.
I was able to see that uh you were pretty close to the the front lines and the fighting.
Tell us where you are and what you have learned about this war from your uh your reporting and your journalism.
First, I'd like to read this uh pre-prepared speech from my KGB handler.
I'm kidding.
Ah, listen to this.
About Pearson Sharp from his own website.
As a privacy junkie, I'm slowly getting rid of my social media accounts.
Yeah, as a spook, that's what you do.
All right, good joke about the KGB.
All right.
But of course, if it was updated joke, it would be FSB, but he uses KGB because that's a reference we all know.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
FSB would be no good.
I agree.
I agree.
Yeah, no one would get it.
But that's what it should be if he's gonna have reading a prepared statement.
Okay.
So that was funny.
Okay, so now I've I've got okay.
The guy has a sense of humor, so here we go.
Uh, we're here in uh Nizhny Novgorod, and it's about a four-hour train ride east of Moscow, and this is where some of the drone attacks have been happening.
And actually, they have they've installed some jammers in the area to block signal because you know they're trying to keep the drones from attacking the military targets.
But in any case, this past week we were down in Donbass, which is a large region uh down near Ukraine, and we were in uh Donetsk, we went to Mariupol, we went to uh the Azov's uh steel plant.
Um we went to a couple of other small towns that have just been absolutely decimated by the fighting, and being down here has been incredibly eye-opening as far as the kinds of people that you meet, the kinds of things you see that just destroy the Western narrative about what's happening here and what life is actually like in Russia, really.
How are people dealing with all of the death?
I mean, that's a that's a very difficult question to answer.
How does anyone deal with the death?
The the people here are are living their lives as best they can.
Donbass has been the center of a lot of the fighting, and we went to Donetsk, which was uh the front line of the war for quite a while.
It's now moved Uh quite a bit west from there, but the people have have tried to integrate the war into their lives the best that they can.
John, I gotta tell you, this guy is definitely a spook.
He has no bio, no wiki page.
OAN has Pearson Sharp grew up in a small farming town in central Ohio.
He moved to Colorado for school, where he attended the University of Colorado in Boulder studying English and creative writing, and I'll say there's nothing on this guy.
So there's no profile at all, which is like one of the earmarks.
Yes.
Well on uh his own page.
I'm a show host and foreign correspondent.
I cover international conflicts from the migration crisis.
So you spotted it immediately with his name.
That's a spooked name.
It's a total spook name.
All right.
Well, good.
Okay, so it's just okay.
Let's assume he's a spook, which is good to know.
Yep.
We don't know who he's working for.
And what's the point of this?
Because the point of this is there's got to be some something going on here.
Tell me it's in this clip three.
Uh I think it's in clip four.
Okay.
We went to a park in Donetsk, and it was a memorial park.
They had a little shrine there for the children that have been killed by the Ukrainian shelling.
And so far the running count just in Donetsk, not in all of Donbass, but just in Donetsk, is 257 children that have been killed from Ukrainian shelling.
And it was called the Alley of Angels.
And I it was very powerful.
Oh, that sounds sounds horrendous.
And it it certainly uh animates uh President Trump's efforts to try to end this war and end the killing.
Uh you know, little children should not be dying because of uh this type of geopolitics.
It's uh it's it's a tragedy.
Um, you know, Pearson, uh, we've seen uh photos of you interacting with the people who are fighting this war.
What can you tell us about those people?
So we actually got to visit some of the troops who are fighting uh for the Russians against the Ukrainians, and the incredible part was that these aren't Russian soldiers, these are Ukrainians, and they've decided to join with Russia and fight against the Ukrainian regime, as they call it.
And when I asked them how they felt about fighting against fellow Ukrainians, and you know, are they are they fighting for Russia now?
Do they want to see Russia win?
They say, We're not fighting for Russia.
We're fighting to free Ukraine.
And I think that says a lot about the mindset of the people here.
They don't think that Ukraine is free right now.
The Ukrainians living there don't think that it's free.
And these people, the soldiers that I spoke with, none of them joined the army willingly.
They were grabbed off of the streets, thrown into vans, and forced to fight.
One of them was a university student, and he was trying to get his doctorate because apparently there's some kind of loophole that once you get your doctorate, you don't have to fight.
And so he was literally at his desk at school, and the the henchman came in and dragged him out, kicking and screaming and threw him into a van.
Suddenly you're in the army now.
So when he was in the Ukrainian army, but then switched sides and joined the Russian side of the fight.
And joined the Russians, yes.
to fight against Now that interesting little factor there was the fact that Gates heard the interview going in the wrong direction He adjusted it because it was not clear what was going on.
And uh so the guy was uh so he's been conscripted out of school right out of his classroom before he got his PhD and ended up.
This is a one of those this didn't happen stories.
Um but it but that there's a message here about this whole thing that is through Gates that's being done for some purpose or other, and I thought it was definitely worth it.
I mean, I didn't play it on the last show, but uh I think it's worth probably worth listening to.
And this is the last clip.
We went to a park in Donetsk, and it was a memorial park.
They had a little shrine there for the story and played.
That have been Oh, I'm sorry.
I cued up the same one twice.
My apologies.
Wow, conscription may not be all it's cracked up to be.
Uh if that type of thing.
No, they these soldiers they said they don't want to fight for Zelensky.
They don't they called it the regime.
They don't want to fight for him.
And I asked them, well, you know, how this is a this is your opinion, of course.
You know, the troops here.
But what about the rest of the Ukrainians?
How do they feel about this?
And they said no one wants to fight for Zelensky.
No one sees him as legitimate.
They all think that he's an illegitimate ruler who's been propped up in place and is basically a dictator at this point.
And no Ukrainians want this war to continue.
They all want it to end.
Hmm.
Well, he was born in London, I've found uh attended University College London, the Dragon School of Oxford.
What's the Dragon School?
I don't know.
I've been to Oxford and I haven't seen that school.
It's like some kind of Hogwarts.
Winchester College, Trinity College, Cambridge.
No, that can't be right.
That's uh this is uh it's gotta be a different guy.
Error.
That's error making errors.
That can't be right to the guy.
Hmm.
Well, yeah, the conscription, I mean this videos on Telegram of people being dragged off the street, thrown into vans all the time.
That's been going on for the the entire you know two three plus three years of the war.
So yeah.
We're not getting good information one way or the other.
No, no, we're not.
Well, then we'll go into our break here with the latest news from Europe.
Brussels airport is the worst affected by this outage, and there's real scenes of chaos at the airport.
Lots of flights canceled, lots of flights delayed.
The airport is telling people don't come unless you have it confirmed that your flight is actually taking off because the agents are having to do things manually because that system software that uh processes ticket check-in and luggage uh check-in is offline.
Um so this is different than when you would have, let's say, uh an outage for air traffic control, because that means the planes literally can't take off.
This can be solved by surging staff over to the airport to be able to process all the check-ins manually.
So I'm told they are trying to do that.
There's a number of other airports affected as well, London Heathrow and Berlin Airport, Berlin Brandenburg Airport, for instance.
They are also uh seeing these scenes of check-in agents having to manually check people in, which is obviously slowing things down.
Uh, but this is very worrying if this is indeed a cyber attack, which the evidence is pointing to right now, because uh Collins Aerospace is a very, very big company, it manages air traffic, uh uh uh air airport check-in across the world, and especially worryingly, it's also a defense company.
So the fact that it could have been subject to this kind of cyber attack is very worrying.
But um, transport sector analysts that I've talked to uh over the past months have said they've been worried about something like this because these types of services that can shut down multiple airports with just one attack are a very tempting target.
Now I think this is a hit job from a competing company because every single news report had the same payoff.
Oh, it's Collins, you know, Collins, a major defense contractor, very, very worrying.
Collins, and where does it hit Brussels?
Brussels, Brussels, where all of the European uh muckety mucks uh live and work.
I'm not gonna argue that at all.
I think it's it could even be Microsoft, Microsoft doing it because they're not using windows on these systems in Europe that they're talking about.
They're talking about somebody else's software, and it's very I mean, it's not beyond the pale because back in the day during uh the OS2 era.
Oh, what a great OS that was during the OS two era when they had they came out with a version called then they and they made the claim IBM did that.
Didn't you write a book about it?
I did.
Wow.
One of my one of my 27 books that I've done.
Instant bestseller.
What was the scripting language called again?
Oh, I forgot.
That's what was so appealing.
It was first of all.
It had a nice scripting language, there's no doubt about it.
But I mean finished the story.
Yeah.
So during the when they came out crash proof war it was called the warp version, OS2 war.
OS2 war proof crash proof, crash proof.
So Steve Ballmer would go into the IBM booth with a disc and just stick it in any random computer and crash it.
And he and he did this.
It was a big joke amongst everybody there.
Ballmer would pull the stunt.
That that's a uh classic Microsoft.
I don't put it past Microsoft to do stuff like that to this day.
Classic.
Rex.
Rex.
Yeah, Rex.
Restructured, extended executor.
Wow, man.
I love that.
Yeah, it was supposed to be crash proof.
That was right before we we found out that if you sent a flood ping to uh um a Windows NT computer that it would give it blue screen of death.
You remember that?
No, I don't remember that.
It was so fun.
You have someone you you see someone across the across the way working on a uh Windows NT, and if you had his you know IP address, you even worked over the internet.
You could send a flood ping and it would get a blue screen of death.
It was amazing.
That was good times.
Can't do that.
Yes, it was super fun.
But with that, I want to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you, the man who put the C's in the coal card, say hello to my friend on the other end, the one, the only Mr. John C Demore.
Yeah, well, one of you, Shadow Kerr in the morning, should we see Booster Graffe and the air subs of the water?
And all the dames and nights out there.
In the morning, controls, control room, stop moving around.
Let me count you.
There we go.
We're counting.
Oh, 1,982.
That's low, but I think a lot of people are watching this uh Charlie Kirk memorial.
Uh you know, I'm gonna say something, and this is I said I say these things, and you maybe always say you wishful thinking.
Uh wishful thinking, I'll say it in advance.
Yes.
Uh, such as when I said I think President Trump can go all the way.
Um, I think this Charlie Kirk murder might spark a long overdue revival in America.
Four more years, baby.
We'll see.
Four more years.
I'm not joking.
I love what I do.
The trolls are in the troll room.
You can uh join them at uh noagendastream.com or my preference, trollroom.io.
And they are there listening live because they either know it or they have a modern podcast app.
Uh, you know, uh probably not discussed at Northeastern University, where we have all of the the brand new uh functionality in the modern podcast apps, not that legacy Apple thing or uh certainly not Spotify.
We are not even on Spotify.
We refuse to be on Spotify.
It hasn't hurt us.
Instead, we're on all those modern podcast apps.
We have chapters, we got transcripts, we had all kinds of cool thing about Bob's, including when we go live, which we do on Thursdays and Sundays, we send out the bat signal.
Your podcast app will tell you that you can listen live.
You can listen live to us in the podcast app.
It's like on demand and live.
And when we publish it, your modern podcast app will let you know within 90 seconds.
Why deal with any other podcast app, podcast apps.com.
Uh 18 years in October.
We just celebrate 1800 episodes.
18 years, a long time, and uh we've been doing it value for value, which means we are the true essence of free speech because it's there, free.
Free because we're not selling anything.
All we want is for you to consider if you got any value out of the work that we do as a public service under the guise of free speech, just send us something back and keep us going four more years.
One of the ways you can help is by uh sending us artwork.
Uh, there's a lot of things you can do.
Noagenda artgenerator.com is where uh we are always hunting for a piece of art to use for every single episode.
Every single one is different and often interesting.
But often uh, you know, we had the big 1800 episode uh on Thursday, and you know, well, you know when you get Darren O'Neill twice in a row, you know that the art was bad.
Wow.
What is this what is this thing with you and Darren?
What do you got?
A feud going?
No, I got no feud with Darren.
He knows exactly what I'm talking about.
Darren agrees like, yeah, that's crazy.
I can't believe that I typed in give me a road sign with no agenda way, 1800 no agenda way, and Curry Dvorak at a at an intersection.
Uh Okay, AI, go.
That's all he did.
Any anyway.
I think he's doing more.
I think he's doing something to brighten up his images because his images have no none of it.
He pays attention.
That's one guy in the group that pays attention.
And you bitch and moan and bitch and moan and complaining, complaining, complaining about the orange nature of a lot of these images.
And all it takes is just a quick shot and you know, put it in Photoshop and take the orange out and boom.
This is true.
This is true.
Is that he the only guy that pays attention to that?
I I noticed it.
Well, Darren's wife works and he uh he just stays at home podcasts.
Oh, he's a home dad.
As far as I understand, hey, I'm happy.
He's our pre-show guy.
Darren's rock and roll pre-show is important.
It riles everybody up, gets them all ready.
You know, there's always a Ted Nugent uh song played.
He used to play Taylor Swift all the time.
He stopped doing that.
Yeah, that's a good thing.
He stopped too many complaints.
So we were looking for we always like to go pretty traditional, something with 1800 on it.
And uh pretty much everybody failed.
Yeah, we had a lot of 1800 quervos.
That which we had a bunch of rando women.
We like the 1800 quervos, but it was all too small.
You couldn't read it.
And the one that we liked, uh, like Curry Devore, like okay, Survent.
Let me see, where are all these?
They scrolled down to the next page, next page.
Hold on.
There's a lot of art, of course, but it's so we should just integrate an LLM in this thing already.
So we liked um I like Matthew Dropco, but it was it was too small.
You like the uh I really like Nico Symes.
But again, it was too small.
And yeah, yeah, you like the Darren uh with the two glasses, but you see Adam Curry, John C. Dovorak on the glass, you couldn't read it from the email.
I couldn't read it at all.
At all.
It's uh people, you know, this is the problem with AI.
Like, oh, it's so easy to make art, but people don't pay attention to anything anymore.
So we have to call you out on the things you're doing wrong.
But maybe when once it's created, you know, it's very hard to uh it's very hard to tell the uh the the model change this, change that, it screws everything up.
Honorary mention though for Matthew Dropko.
The Corey Booker clutching his pearls was dynamo.
Oh, yes, that was a that was hilarious.
Of course, he has eight fingers on one hand.
That's a minor problem.
Gee, that's not AI.
What you're using one of the older models, Matthew.
Literally has one, two, three, four, five, yeah, six fingers.
Very nice.
Very interesting.
And they're all bent.
Bent and warped, which is okay.
Uh, but that's probably what the AI thought clutching looked like.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But we were we're gonna pick something to say it definitely had 1800 on it.
So that didn't work.
Of course, of course.
Well, maybe but that was a it was a funny idea.
Uh yeah, that was poorly timed.
Too many fingers, too many fingers.
Exactly.
But we appreciate the effort.
You prompt jockeys you, you've pretty much chased away every single actual artist.
It's too bad.
I'm gonna do the same with end of show mixes.
It's all happening, it's all here.
Can't you can see it coming down Broadway?
Yeah, he's fight against all you want.
But like that that mix that we have coming up is a good mix about the no agenda nights and the dames, it's a good mix.
You can you can't fight it.
It's a good mix.
Well, you can fight it.
I tried.
I've given up.
Like we have because I have nothing else.
Like, oh man, it's like too much work, you just throw it in the air.
Yeah, it's too much work.
This is the laziness thing we brought up earlier in the show.
Well, it's like a theme in the country.
Well, let me ask you this.
If we could do this show with AI and not have to show up and just make it happen, press a button, do some prompts, like, okay, talk about uh the gold card, talk about um free speech versus freedom of speech.
If we did like, you know, like 50 lines of prompting and the show did itself, would we just stay in bed?
If it was as good as it could be, if it's as good as the real show, I would.
But that's never gonna be.
That's the problem.
I mean, AI is creeping into everything, but it's not creeping into it it can't, certain things it can't do.
It doesn't, for one thing, the personality of AI sucks.
It stinks.
It's got no voice, no personality.
It's flat.
Bemrose says these lazy AI images is just value for value.
Very rude, Sir Bemrose.
Very rude.
Yeah.
Anyway, it doesn't matter.
Yeah.
We still have a piece of art, but take some pride in your work, people.
Get rid of the orange, lighten it up, make your blacks blacks, your whites whites.
And uh check the the fingers.
Check your fingers.
Of course, we always thank people who support us with monetary value, $50 and above.
We always want to uh want to mention them and thank them profusely for supporting the show.
It's the only income we generate.
No tote bags, no hats.
Oh man, I heard MPR.
NPR like, you know, if you only give us $25, we'll send you a hat.
It's like they they don't understand value for value.
Do you think that that Democrat listeners that they just uh are stingy?
Or do you think they had a matching donation, a $15,000 matching donation the other day for on the media?
Stingy.
Which reminds me, I got a note here.
Hold on, where's my where's my note?
We got a note here from one of our producers.
And this is hold on, this is producer Nate.
Nate says, ITM Adam.
I've been listening since your first Rogan appearance and haven't missed a show since.
I love the work you two do.
I could go on, but I'll try to get to the brass tax.
I am regrettably a douchebag, as I haven't donated once.
Well, it's free speech.
What do you expect?
But I have hit several people in the mouth.
During show 1800, you mentioned having some challenge coins made for the rubizer donation.
Finally, an opportunity to add value back to the show enters my mind.
I have very close friends who operate a third generation family-owned casting company that does small and large batch castings.
Locally, the business provides medals and trophies for schools as well as custom commissions for anything from belt buckles to shirt pins.
Made in America, baby.
They also have made tons of merch for basically any band you can think of that has been big since your MTV days.
I would gladly pay for the commission and materials required for the first 33 challenge coins and mail them to you, uh either you or John once they're done.
I'm not an artist, however, so I would need someone to render an image for the coins.
If you're interested, feel free to respond anytime.
Much love and keep up the good work.
Well, that's it.
That's a beautiful offer.
That's great value for value.
All we need now is a beautiful design.
What's the what we need for that?
You like uh like a high.
I think no, I think we should just give it to get talk Paul into doing it.
He did the original challenge coin, still one of the best.
You don't want to use Made in America by Nate for free.
No, no.
I'm talking about the does this design?
The design of the coin, not the manufacturing of the coin.
Oh, okay.
Well, Paul doesn't even listen anymore.
Well, I he would probably perk up if I told him we need a new design for a new challenge coin.
He'd come up with something.
I will.
Yeah, please.
I will do that.
And then we can pass the information on to Jay, and she can coordinate the whole thing.
Okay.
Excellent.
Hey, we have a we have we have staff.
I love it.
We have a we have a Yes, so we have a workflow, I figured out.
It's all workflow.
We have we have workflow.
We have workflow.
Woo, everybody, we got workflow.
Thank you very much, Brandon Mango from Midland, Pennsylvania.
And we always have uh special uh titles for our top donors for each show.
Although any amount, any time, we love it all and we appreciate it.
It is value for value, so the value is only something you can determine.
And Brandon thinks it's very valuable what we do.
1,052 and 60 cents, which I'm thinking is a thousand dollars plus uh fees.
And he says, any chance, y'all can let me know how much I've donated.
Love you, love the show.
I'm sure Jay responded to him.
And uh for that, he becomes an executive producer, $300 and above always gets you an executive producer of credit, $200 above gets you an associate executive producer, and in both instances, we will always read your notes.
And uh, I guess you're gonna become a uh Wow, he'll become a Secretary General today and a night is beautiful.
And thank you very much, Brandon.
We appreciate it.
Well, let me stop everything and say no.
What do you mean no?
We can't tell you how much the idea is the way we do this.
No, but I think you have to keep your own.
No, those days, the years ago, Eric had some mechanism where he could look at some of the past donations and come up with a number.
Well, it's always been on the honor system, regardless.
I just thought it's always been on the honor system.
We want you to keep your own books.
Yes.
Keep your own books, people.
Okay.
Thank you for and I think people should be reminded of that.
And I'm good.
That's what I'm why stopped.
I stopped the presses right there.
Yes.
Thank you.
Because most people can figure it out.
You can look at your checkbook or you can look in your bank.
There's a ways of knowing how much money you I mean, you better know how much how much money you're spending on anything.
You should, yes.
Joshua uh what is this?
What do you think?
Coff it cough it?
Kaffelt?
Cought, Kaffelt, Cough, cough.
City, I Ohio.
Yes.
And he came in with 51538.
ITM and John and Adam.
Thank you for your courage.
The assassination of Charlie Kirk has made me realize that the country is still in dire need of the service you provide.
Ah, here we go.
I think so too.
I want to do my part to ensure that you're able to continue doing what you do for four more years.
This is my first donation.
You've been de-duced.
If it has not already been claimed, I would like to be named the Secretary General of the Unknown Unknowns.
Sounds good to me.
Can I please get some baby making karma?
And can you play the following clips slash jingles?
Trump, they're eating the dogs.
John's mac and cheese.
Alex Jones Durka Durka.
Durka Dorca.
Yes.
You know what that is?
I don't know.
And shut up already.
It's science.
And the baby making karma.
They're eating the dogs.
You slaves can get used to mac and cheese.
Mac and cheese.
Macaroni and cheap shatter melted together.
Mac and cheese, mac and cheese, mac and cheese.
Shut up already.
Science.
You've got.
Oh.
Karma.
And night John checks in from Tucson, Arizona, 343 33.
Uh he says he added 10 bucks for fees.
Not sure how that works.
Next time I'll write a note and send the check.
Yeah, that saves everybody money, John.
Uh ITM Adam and John, this donation of 333 plus 33 plus fees is for a birthday wish for Archduchess Kim, keeper of the Nutty Fluffers.
She is definitely on the mend, and we are very happy about that.
Happy birthday, Kim!
All uppercase.
Kim shares her birthday with Bill Bo the Frodo.
Please excuse the Lord of the Rings reference.
And the equinox.
That's right.
Today's the equinox.
She will also Yes, it's the uh equal uh daylight uh uh and uh night time.
Today is the equinox.
She will also be 42, so we'll soon have the answer to life, the universe, and everything.
That's right.
I enjoyed your discussion of drive-through liquor stores a few episodes back.
I remember driving through one for a six-pack.
Well, test driving a car with the dealer.
Times have certainly changed.
Yes, Kim was a little kid in the back seat with her sister.
She went ahead and survived my upbringing anyway.
Jingles, F-35 Karma and screw your freedom.
Screw your freedom.
You've got Karma.
So Sir Lawrence of Dystopia, who's over here in Oakland and was at the meetup, came in with 333.48, the Oakland meetup.
And he had a complaint, which I found somewhat distressing.
ITM gentlemen, while listening on the Sunday show, I was horrified to find that my cash donation was not all there.
Oh no.
If you will recall, John, I had the envelope pressed uh passed down the table to you.
It was sealed in wax with my no agenda night ring signature ring, and I don't think any of the people there would have taken it.
I think I got it and probably opened it.
I'm not sure what was in it, because you don't tell me here.
I taking it, they just said things get, you know, the the cash donations get piled up, and then obviously some this one was somehow forgotten.
Yes.
Unless it was less than fifty.
Which were there were none, so it had to be at least a hundred dollars.
So we'll give you take a hundred, a hundred to hundred dollars.
Taken as if they were all non-douchebagno agenda Americans.
It is possible you may have stopped off at Club Mallard on the way back from the Pizzeria Violetta, had a drink, and tipped the excellent bartender, a nice fat tip.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's gonna think so.
No.
I go straight home.
Uh, or considering my rather poor performance at my IDFA match the following day.
It's possible I counted twice only to short the best podcast in the universe.
That that ends now.
Congratulations on 18 Glorious Years, sir.
Lawrence of Dystopia, Baronet of Maxwell Park, Kilo, Oscar 6, Echo Juliet Echo 73s.
73s, Kilo 5, Alpha Charlie Charlie.
We'll see you on the uh on the the two gigahertz back uh channel from uh Artemis One.
Joe Grillo, soon to be Sir Joseph, Lord of the Central Jersey Swamps, 333.34.
Oh, thank you.
He adds a penny to the jar.
Hey, John and Adam.
If someone told me I would someday donate a thousand dollars to a podcast, I would have told them that they needed their head examined.
Well, I guess I need my head examined because this third donation of 333.34 puts me into the knighthood category.
I couldn't possibly ask you to kick in the penny considering how much bitching John does about the lackluster donations of late.
There you go.
Please like me, Sir Joseph, Lord of the Central Jersey Swamps, and if you'd be so kind, provide some gumbo parmesan and Albeda beer for the round table.
We already did this donation.
I think so.
We did too, didn't we?
Yeah.
Did we?
Yeah.
Because I'll beat a beer.
We got into a big discussion about it.
But I don't remember now.
I think this is a good one.
And I do remember him saying what he said about uh I didn't think I'd ever donate a thousand dollars to a show.
I don't know how it got on here twice, but here it is again.
Well, should I just read it just in case we have to?
It's there.
Here's the part I don't remember.
If you would be so kind, provide some gumbo.
All right, that is I do remember that.
Please mention my band, the Gumbo Goom Goombas.
Yeah, it would came in.
This was a letter he had that had gumbo goombas on top.
I read this letter.
All right.
Well, I don't know how it got unless he did it again, which is possible.
Because the original one was a handwritten note, it wasn't on the spreadsheet.
Well, no, a lot of people do this, by the way.
Not a well, not a lot of few.
A number of people have done it.
Not enough.
Not enough.
They send in a note that is handwritten with the check, and then they send in a the same thing uh somehow through the PayPal.
So I believe he's just getting double publicity, which is uh somehow he pulled it off.
Good job.
More power to him to the gumbos.
Uh the gum, the gum Goomba Gumbos.
Good job, everybody.
Okay.
Onward.
Okay, now we go to Linda Lupatkin in Lakewood, Colorado.
Oh, that's it.
We're done.
No, we're not done.
Kelly and Monica are both in Canada.
And their donations amount to $240 each at least.
Uh okay.
Yeah, in Canadian, yes.
Okay.
All right.
Go for Linda.
Linda says jobs karma for a competitive edge with a resume that gets results.
Go to Imagemakers Inc.com.
For all your executive resume and job search needs.
That's Image Makers Inc.
with a K and work with Linda Lou, Duchess of Jobs, and writer of winning resumes.
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
Let's vote for jobs.
Yes, Kelly Sponberg, no stranger to the show from Rocky Mountain House in Alberta, Canada.
Came in with 189.55 Candinavian uh Dollarette.
So uh associate executive.
No, no, no, the can the can't that's American after the 250 bucks worth of Canadian dollar edits.
Thank you.
I got you.
So they will be associate executive producers.
Sir Kelly and Dame Andrea are pleased to announce The completion of our business expansion at Metal Dog Machines in Rocky Mountain House, Alberta.
This donation is to both celebrate the show's 1800th milestone and all Dame Andrea's work as a general contractor.
All right.
Beautiful.
Interesting.
And last on our list is Monica Blancing.
She's in Drayton Valley, Alberta, Canada.
You guys should meet up.
That would be $240.48, I think, is what it comes to.
Happy belated 18th anniversary.
Thank you.
All right.
Belated.
Well, you can do it again in October.
It's not quite belated until October 20, something.
1800 episodes.
We appreciate it.
That's what she meant.
And we appreciate all of our executive and associate executive producers.
As always, thank you so much for your courage.
And of course, these credits are entirely real and accepted by the Hollywood bigwigs.
Go to imdb.com.
You'll see over a thousand no agenda executive and associate executive producers.
It also works in your uh LinkedIn profile or on your ex, or if you're on it, on your Blue Cry.
And we will be thanking the rest of our value for value supporters in our second segment, $50 and above.
And again, congratulations to this associate executive and executive producers.
Our formula is this.
We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
You.
What else?
What else?
Shut up, Slay.
Shut up, slave.
Shut up, slave.
Silence is golden.
So it somebody sent me a clip, this clip, which is uh this is Newsom.
Yeah.
Uh and this is a short clip that was I pulled it off Twitter.
And Newsom has been getting nothing but grief because he's trying to act like Trump and he's a tough guy and he's cussing a lot.
So somebody pointed out this is Newsom.
Now he's decided to change course and act like Biden.
And if you listen to this clip, he sounds like Biden except he's missing the no joke.
What was the other thing Biden used to say?
No joke, man.
No joke.
It's not a joke.
I'm not kidding.
And this sort of thing.
Because this is a good idea.
And I'm not lying.
This response to this particular bogus story is every known meme of things that didn't happen were posted.
And in fact, I collected a few of them for the future use in the newsletter.
It's like nobody believes a word of this story, which makes it again more like Biden one of his Kakamami screwball stories.
And this is just nonsense.
This is a chill.
This is chilling.
This is serious.
I walked into a restaurant the other day.
Entire staff came out, started hugging me in crying.
The hell is that?
The United States of America.
What he's doing to our diverse communities, what he's doing, the fabric of our society.
He does.
Yeah.
He does it a little bit like cornpop.
He was a bad dude.
It was a is a Biden cadence.
Uh and stupid.
That's funny.
Yeah.
No one cares about it, by the way.
No one cares about Biden except for President Trump, who wants to, you know, undo all the pardons.
And so since we're on California, we do have one more clip on this is not a from Newsom, but it's about Newsom.
And this is the uh the Cali Banned.
It says banned, but it's it's about the ban on ice masks, legal ban on i Yeah.
Okay.
California will be the first state to ban most law enforcement, including federal immigration agents, from covering their faces while on official duty.
Governor Gavin Newsom signed the bill into law today, saying the masked law enforcement pulling people off the streets is a step toward authoritarianism in quote Trump's America.
A few other states are considering similar measures.
The law does allow exceptions for things like riot gear, medical masks, and undercover work.
In the past, I said it's officers wear masks to prevent being identified in videos and photos online and facing threats.
You know, the very state that uh forced everyone to wear a mask still does from time to time.
Well, if you listen to that report carefully, there is an out.
Which is instead of wearing the normal mask that the ice guys are wearing, they just put on a medical mask.
Yeah.
It said right there, except for medical masks.
So you can go out there like a COVID.
Yeah, that's an out.
So you wear that.
You wear a little blue mask, and you know screw ya.
Oh, that's good.
That's good.
Uh looks like uh we have a deal.
The the deal has been approved on the phone.
I don't think we've papered it yet, but we got a deal.
We have a deal.
We got a deal.
It's like I got a deal.
I spoke to the guy, we got a deal.
Here we go.
The deal is for TikTok.
Video sharing app TikTok's Future in the US has long hung in the balance.
But Donald Trump says his Chinese counterpart approved a deal over the phone, as they plan to meet at the APEC regional summit next month.
And as you know, he approved the TikTok deal.
And we're in the process.
We have some great investors, big some of the biggest uh in the world.
Jesus security and surveillance concerns over American users data.
Washington passed a law last year mandating that TikTok, run by Chinese parent company ByteDance, must sell its U.S. operations.
Going offline.
Bite Dance has expressed its willingness to negotiate and keep its estimated 170 million users in the U.S. We thank President Xi Jinping and President Donald J. Trump for their efforts to preserve TikTok in the United States.
Byte Dance will work in accordance with applicable laws to ensure TikTok remains available to American users through TikTok US.
According to the Wall Street Journal, the deal could involve the U.S. government receiving a multi-billion dollar fee from TikTok in exchange for facilitating negotiations with China.
Trump's stance on TikTok has changed since returning to office.
And he credits the app with helping him win a second term via young voters.
He's delayed implementing the sale deadline multiple times.
The latest now until December 16th.
The app's fate has been caught up in a sweeping tariff spiral between Washington and Beijing that has strained relations between the world's top two economies.
So let's talk about this for a second.
A, who do you think the buy it's gotta be multiple buyers at this point?
I I presume.
Yeah, Oracle's one of them.
Yeah, Oracle has the data already as part of Project Dallas or whatever they call that.
Yeah, whatever.
Yeah, for uh for harvest harvesting the data, the US data in Oracle, which is where a lot of your data is harvested.
Um who else?
Who else would be in on this?
It was a uh horror uh uh Andreas and Horowitz is one of them, and there's a third partner, and I'm trying to think who it is.
Can't well, you know, your your bot there would know.
I'm not gonna ask the bot.
The bot doesn't know anything.
Um, it's a what are the chances that it'll just suck?
Well, the problem is that they're still negotiating about the algorithm.
It's so s I could write this algorithm.
You think so?
Yeah, I know so.
I love William, why don't you give them a call?
I like red.
You get red stuff.
That's what that's what they're the algorithm.
It's what it looks like to me, too, yes.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I like black preachers that do the falling thing.
Boom, you get them all.
Yeah.
You know, I like blue hair complaining and crying about Trump.
Bloom, you get it all.
It's very it's a very simple algorithm.
And then the monetization is the shop.
That's the problem.
And because of the well, De Minimus is probably still high enough at $200 that you can still get most of that junk uh in without without import duty.
But that's my impression.
But I mean, is it still making the what was it making?
$8 billion a year, I think is what it was.
I don't know.
I I think your robot would know.
I don't care.
Get your own robot.
Get your own robot, man.
Like getting a robot in a house.
It's just like an intrusion.
Yeah, I was thinking about you know, Optimus Prime and all these robots and that ridiculous uh robot expo where all the boxing the boxing robots are crap.
They're boxing and they're playing soccer and it all sucks.
It totally blows.
It's really funny.
The mista the thing is, like people always want a ro a humanoid robot.
That makes no sense to me.
I have a robe.
I have one robot in my house, and I love this robot.
It's my second one, actually.
And that's a vacuum cleaner.
Oh, it's not from Roomby, is it?
No, it's from uh Shark.
Because she that's fine.
No, Shark has one.
Oh, I have I've no doubt that China has an entire layout of my house.
I mean, I I really despise that part, but it's so because of Phoebe, Phoebe shit.
Oh my goodness, I forgot to let her in.
Oh boy.
Stop the tape.
Yeah, let me stop the tape.
Hold on a second.
before a dog is burning up.
You know, I think I I think I liked it better when you played the slide whistle.
Slide whistle is better.
Yeah, well.
So the ASPCA, they're gonna come and take her away, I'm sure.
Poor guy.
Well, it's like it's it's 85, it's almost 90 degrees.
She's in the well, she has a big white hairy dog.
She's in the corner of the yard with a little bit of shade.
She's all curled up like I'm frying, Daddy.
Oh no.
Oh, that this dog needs a human door.
We should teach the dog how to open the door.
Yeah, okay.
Anyway, I thank you.
I also took it took the opportunity to urinate and get some water for myself.
Uh anyway, we were talking about dog.
I don't what were we talking about?
Ugh, that's a good question.
The shark vacuum cleaner.
Oh, yeah, it's monitoring and mapping your house.
Yes, but they have a special version that is specifically for pet fur.
And it's really good.
And I love that thing.
We call it Steve McLean.
And every night at 11, Steve McLean goes around, and that's an actual robot that is functional.
Doesn't look like Rosie from the Jetsons vacuuming.
This is what I don't get.
How stupid.
Like you're spending all this battery and energy and gyroscopic power on keeping this humanoid thing.
Who cares?
Oh, look, it walks just like a human.
It can jump.
Make it functional.
Don't make it look like a human.
I I've never understood that.
Am I just uh obsessing too much about this?
No, I've always felt the same way.
I always point out to people that they all have robots already.
The uh word processor is a typist.
Uh and you hit the button and it types out a bunch of documents for you.
Man, Lindsay Graham's uh in in bed with uh with Cash Patel, which he took.
I thought you were gonna say you're bed with the Queen.
Well, believe me, Kyle Bieterman got the joke already, thought it was funny.
Uh I said, digital ID, man, it's coming.
And here's the UK labor minister.
We know the government is looking at digital ID cards at the moment.
How would that help prevent the situation that we're in now?
Well, Keir Starmer, our prime minister, has said we are looking at what other countries have done to bring in uh a sort of uh digital creditation.
I think there's real actually benefits right across here from uh obviously dealing with illegal working, but also actually imagine if your viewers imagined that they had uh one credential that would allow them to access all the different government services and uh public services do.
I'm sure many of your viewers often tear their hair out.
Oh dealing with different numbers and passwords.
Oh no, different numbers and passwords.
I'm tearing my hair out.
Please, government give me a digital ID, please, please.
The different bits of government that they have to deal with.
Um I I do think there's could be a real benefit here for people who are here and working legally and accessing our public services if there was where there was one route in, uh as well as the benefits it could have with uh illegal migration.
We're looking at that.
I think it is an interesting idea that other countries have taken forward, and we want to learn from what they've done.
You see, this is the difference.
This is why we fought the British and kicked them out.
They want digital ID.
We give you the Trump platinum card.
I mean, it's a much better card.
You want digital ID, you want the Trump platinum, the Trump gold card.
This is this is the difference right here.
Although they're gonna push for it real hard, right after we go to the moon.
No.
They're gonna push for it real hard.
Yeah.
Period.
Moon notwithstanding.
Yeah.
Uh a little bit of uh EU news.
Uh well, actually, uh this is uh I've been taking my time to watch some more of uh President Trump's presser with uh Keir Starmer.
Um and I don't remember any clips of this out there.
This is about uh him being disappointed in President Putin, but also telling us when and how the war will end.
Mr. President, you say that uh President Putin has let you down.
Uh have negotiations run out of road, and what are your next steps to compel uh an end to this war?
Well he has let me down.
I mean, he's killing many people, and he's losing more people than he's you know than he's killing.
Very simply if the price of oil comes down, Putin's gonna drop out, he's gonna have no choice, he's gonna drop out of that war.
And when I found out that the European nations were buying oil from Russia, and as you know, um I'm very close to India, I'm very close to the Prime Minister of India.
I spoke to him the other day, wish him a happy birthday.
We have a very good relationship.
He put out a beautiful statement too.
We have but I I said, you know, I sanctioned them.
Uh China's paying a very large tariff right now to the United States.
But I'm willing to do other things, but not when uh the people that I'm fighting for are buying oil from Russia.
If the oil price comes down, very simply Russia will settle.
And the oil price is way down, you know, we got it way down.
We're drilling and we produce more oil than anybody else in the world.
We're doing a lot.
But I was disappointed to see that, and the Prime Minister was disappointed to see that.
So if the price of oil comes down, then Putin's out.
How does it well, how does that work though?
If the because of course we know it's a troll, the European Union is not gonna stop buying oil.
But if they stop buying Russian oil, wouldn't the price go up?
Wouldn't there be less available and therefore the prices would go up?
That's what the the that's too logical.
The uh idea is uh the the Russia be selling less oil because the the Europeans stop buying it, and it wouldn't really change the price of anything, but it would it would change the income flow.
In other words, the they would just get less money and running out of money is a is not a good thing for because it's a main part of their economy, is the uh revenues from oil.
Well, von der Leyen, Queen Ursula is uh is clapping back, and uh she has a plan.
A plan, uh now it's not about oil, but did you know that they were taking Russian L and Government doesn't surprise me.
Well, they're not anymore.
No, they get a lot of gas too.
We're stopping that.
Russia's war economy is sustained by the revenues from fossil fuels.
We want to cut these revenues.
So we are banning imports of Russian energy into European markets.
It is time to turn off the tap.
We are prepared for this.
We have been saving energy, we have been diversifying supplies, we've been investing in low carbon sources of energy like never before.
And today these efforts pay off.
They pay off.
We've been we've been saving energy.
Yeah, they got a bunch of it right there.
In the box.
And we have low carbon alternatives.
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
This they're they're going to die.
They are of the once they kill their nuke plants.
This was the problem.
That there were there were so I don't know how they got suckered into any of this.
Well, they want they want to kill people.
Isn't it just universally true throughout history that the cheaper and more abundant actual energy is that the more prosperous people become?
Yes, because it's it's because what it is is energy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And it makes things makes things move.
Yes.
Poor Europeans.
I I I really I I do love our European brothers and sisters, but you know, you're letting these people kill you.
They're squashing you like bugs.
Yeah, and you can't say anything about her, you get thrown in the slammer.
Yeah, you get arrested like like Katie Hopkins.
Man, you should joking about it, but she's in for a surprise.
You should hear her story.
That whole podcast with Lara is good.
You know, she it got because at a certain point she became the most hated person in the UK.
I'm not I don't remember what happened or what she did.
Well, she was an LBC for a while, as I recall.
Yeah, she wasn't, and she was on LBC.
She loves America because she would do uh a regular spot on Tucker.
And because of that, she was able to have a I guess a it was the Republican women's conference, and she spoke at some gathering because of Tucker had a you know, got her in there, and then she what she was on the speaking circuit all of all of a sudden.
She was going around every state speaking at every Republican women's conference, and that's in essence how she survived, but it got so bad, as she was saying, that her husband had to take her their children, move to a different town, take on different names, and they did not have contact for five years because of the abuse the children were taking.
Really?
Yes.
I it was I was blown away.
Well, I remember that we used to follow her when she was on LBC.
Yeah.
And she was, you know, she was funny, but she was very uh biting in terms of her critique.
And uh I just don't see, I mean, that I just don't see how that would create that much hate.
No, I well uh I think it was something.
Well, this time I will ask the robot.
What was it that happened that made Katie Hopkins the most hated person in the UK?
Well, Katie Hopkins earned that most hated label from a string of explosive, often offensive comments that lit up the UK media.
She kicked off big in 2015 with a sun column comparing migrants crossing the Mediterranean to cockroaches, sparking massive backlash for racism, got her investigated by police, though charges dropped.
Then there was her digs at Faddies, calling them lazy, slagging off Scottish accents as scummy, and telling folks with depression to snap out of it, which hit parents of kids with autism hard too.
Oh, and that time she joked about euthanizing dementia patients to free up NHS beds, pure Firestorm.
Shows like Celebrity Big Brother amplified it all, turning her into a tabloid villain.
But hey, she turned the hate into cash, didn't she?
Not really.
Hey, you biased robot.
Error.
Okay.
Well, that's kind of funny though.
Snap out of it.
What's your problem?
Well, her style of uh painted crushes was very American.
Yeah.
She definitely wasn't beyond the what a Louis C.K. would have done or almost any decent comic.
Yeah.
Well, but she didn't except for the public masturbation.
She didn't masturbate in front of other comics in the hotel room, as far as I know.
Yeah.
As far as I know, yes.
So uh yeah.
Yeah.
Poor poor Katie.
But anyway, she seems to be doing okay.
She had a she had a she almost died.
Well, it started with, I think it did start with the cockroach thing, and that brought down the ire of the uh globalists who were moving to move everybody they could from the uh northern Africa into the Europe.
Yeah.
Uh since it's on right now, and I got I'm I'll tell you, I'm looking at this.
This is amazing, the people who are at this memorial.
The entire cabinet has spoken already.
All of the top podcasters are ourselves excluded.
Uh all of it.
Of course we are.
We're never we're excluded from everything.
Yes.
We were deplatformed when we started.
Um that's really good.
Um, I was bringing that up because uh I called it Kirk's widow, Erica has been named CEO of Turning Point, the conservative nonprofit that he founded in his statement turning point USA said Kirk designated his wife to be CEO ahead of the shooting that took his life.
I think she's really gonna make something out of this.
Yeah, I I I'm in total disagreement.
Okay.
I think she has no karma whatsoever, and it's gonna go just nowhere.
But uh if there's people behind her that are doing the job, it might not make a difference.
This is where you say Marco Rubio, he's the guy.
Marco Rubio could do it.
So I I have a question for you.
I got a uh air traffic controller clip.
Oh, so uh this is a this is a uh kind of it's edited a bit, but not by me.
Uh and this is the air traffic controller scolding a spirit airline flight for getting too close to Air Force One.
Okay.
When he took the trip to England.
And is this kind of ins it's just there's insults?
Do air traffic controllers normally insult the pilots of these planes?
Is that a common thing?
Let's have a listen.
Spirit wings 1300.
Turn 20 degrees right immediately.
Wait.
Pay attention.
1300 traffic off your left wing by six miles uh eight miles, 747.
I'm sure you can see who it is.
I'll keep an eye out for me.
White and blue.
I gotta talk to you twice every time.
Pay attention.
Get off the iPad.
Okay.
So uh these conversations, this is a little more than usual.
Uh this is the exact reason when I fly up to Dallas, and if I'm flying myself, because I only fly once every six weeks, once every two months, maybe, and we go in a in a Cirrus, which is a fast, but it's a four-seater, it's a small aircraft, but it's not you know, it it's uh it's fast for a small four-seater.
Uh so it takes me an hour and five minutes to get up to Dallas versus five minutes and five out five and a half hours in the car.
Beautiful, I love it.
And I always take along one of the instructors from the flight school.
I rent the plane from the flight school.
Um, because they're on the radio all day.
Because here's this is my experience.
And air traffic controllers are there for a reason.
We have a lot of them listening to us.
I love them all.
I've never had a spat with them, but this is what happens.
It's very busy airspace.
There's five airports up there.
You got Dallas, Fort Worth, you got Love, you got Addison.
And if you are flying into that airspace and they're gonna vector you and tell you what to do.
And if you so much as go, uh on the radio, they'll go, okay, why don't you fly 30 minutes that way and we'll talk to you in a half hour and we'll let you back in and make your approach.
Because they're busy.
They're trying to keep you know, separation, all kinds of bad things from happening.
So if you're not responsive on the radio, which uh it sounds like there's a couple of different clips of this floating out there, like he had to ask two or three times to turn 20 degrees right.
If you don't say, you know, you're calling spirit spirit airlines 20 degrees right.
If you don't say that right away, then you're not paying attention.
And that's that's frightening for an air traffic controller because you need to respond.
I need you to do this.
If you're not turning right and you're not responding, I can run into trouble.
I'm thinking five steps ahead.
So yeah, call them a douche, get off the iPad, stop uh stop horsing around.
This is a busy airspace, and we got the the Air Force One.
So, yes, and it's it it it was meant as an insult, and I think it was correct.
Now, often oftentimes you'll have a different dispute where the air traffic control is gonna tell you how to fly.
You know, or or I mean, I'm trying to think of a good example.
But ultimately, the pilot in command is in command of that aircraft.
So they'll tell you to do certain things, like, no, I don't want to do that.
I want to do it this way.
And if it's not within their, if it's not within their aerodrome space, you know, you're like, hey, I don't want to fly that way because I might run into a rainstorms.
I want to go that way.
You know, they will have to concede to you because you do have the authority over the aircraft, and you're up there and they're not.
But when it comes to this, absolutely, the guy's spirit, it was the douche.
20 degrees to the right, confr just confirm and go.
Not paying attention.
Yeah, they were talking to each other in the cockpit, and you're talking about the air, the flight attendants.
You see that hottie.
Yeah, that dude's real hot.
It's spirit, spirit airways.
I'm just saying.
Yeah.
All right.
Uh I only got one.
I've got a couple more, but I'm like, I'm gonna save the supercut.
Oh.
Do you have a supercut?
You're gonna save a super.
That was about the free speech thing.
I think it'd be better bumped, because it would be talking about free speech or freedom of speech.
You know, I actually tried to um I actually tried to make that one sound better.
This one?
It had mu does it have music on it.
I don't remember.
I there's about 10 of them out there.
This is the one.
This is an this is a retrospective.
Yeah, I tried to take the music out of this.
Why bother?
You can't do it.
I don't think it's music on this one.
Well, it did.
It would the this new uh I told you you need to try the 11 labs thing.
11 labs really works incredibly well.
Take music out?
Yeah.
Oh, it takes music.
I told you it's the only thing that makes uh RFK Junior sound sound legible.
This is not.
Okay, I'll play with it next time.
Well, uh, let me just see, because uh I think I have the I threw it out.
Maybe I still have it.
Yeah, I still have it.
Uh you'll you'll laugh.
Okay, let me see if it's the same one.
So you shouldn't be banned from one platform and not Twitter ban the president.
No, I have a different one.
So you shouldn't be banned from one platform and not others, uh, if you for uh uh providing misinformation out there.
There's no guarantee to free speech on misinformation or or hate speech, and especially around our democracy.
There are Americans who are uh engaged in uh this kind of propaganda, uh and whether they should be civilly or even in some cases criminally charged, uh is something that would be a better deterrent.
If people go to only one source and the source they go to is sick and uh, you know, has an agenda and they're putting out disinformation.
Uh our First Amendment stands as a major block.
It's really hard to govern today.
This is a matter of corporate responsibility.
Twitter should be held accountable and shut down that site.
It is a matter of safety and corporate accountability.
The First Amendment is not absolute, it does not protect any single thing anyone says.
And there are limits, and that's important.
And what this committee has been trying to do for the last year and a half is to chill the federal government from monitoring what is going on on social media.
When you look at what Tucker Carlson and some of these other folks on Fox do, it is very, very clearly incitement of violence.
Very clearly incitement of violence.
I believe that when it comes to broadcast television, like Fox News, these are subject to federal law, federal regulation in terms of what's allowed on air and what isn't.
That's a good piece.
First of all, she calls it broadcast television, it's not.
And they are not.
This is a this is a U.S. representative that was AOC.
This is an actor.
It's not a representative.
Very clearly, incitement of violence.
I believe that when it comes to broadcast television, like Fox News, these are subject to federal law, federal regulation in terms of what's allowed on air and what isn't.
So my biggest concern is that your view has the first amendment hamstringing the government in significant ways.
We should have played that earlier, although it's nice to kind of wrap up with it.
So uh as a rare exception, I will play for you until you realize why I threw it out.
The supercut that I got.
Now, this had a typical boom-bada boom-bada boom-buddh bum.
I I I don't get those too many of those.
I don't like them.
Well, I so that's why you use 11 Labs, their voice isolator, and it worked extremely well until it got to someone speaking in uh in an audience with a lot of applause, and you'll hear why I threw this out.
Twitter banned the president permanently.
Oh, damn.
They took away his precious.
Well, Facebook upheld their ban of Donald Trump today for at least another six months.
It is so funny to watch the Trump supporters and the Republicans melt down over Tucker Carlson getting fired from Fox News.
Tucker Carlson is out at Fox News.
Couldn't have happened to a better guy.
Fox News Media and Tucker Carlson have agreed to part ways.
Oh!
Na-na-na-na!
And it's a lie!
Fox.
So that's actually Wow.
That's actually the view.
If you remember when the who's the little uh Latino woman.
Yeah, uh, Anna Navarro.
Yeah, she so she starts singing.
I wouldn't call her little, but yes.
Well, she starts singing na na na nana.
Hey, say goodbye.
And it turned her.
This is actually a very interesting filter because it removed the music from everything, but it brought the actual devil that is inside of that woman out.
Listen again.
Listen, 11 Labs devil revealing software.
That's exactly what it is.
agreed to part ways.
Oh!
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah!
Mm-hmm.
Uh!
Foxy, I'm telling you, this is my demon revealer.
I'm gonna have to use that more often.
It's a reverse demon uh filter.
Yeah, it brings the demon out.
Use so much food by donating to no agenda.
Imagine all the people who could do that.
Oh, yeah, that'd be fabulous.
Oh, no agenda is all in.
Well, our supporters are no demons.
They are in fact angels.
They support us with value for value, and we appreciate everything you support us with.
Noagenda donations.com is where you can do that.
And we have uh several more people to thank who supported us with $50 or above.
John C. DeVore, go.
Adrian Christianson starts us off.
He's in Marmore, Queensland, Australia, to 12640, which that may have been bumped up.
To do a calculation on that number.

That could be a uh associate executive producer ship.

These guys, they pump them out, man.
This is a long-awaited new Mercy Me album.

John's tip of the day is on the way, and of course, we have our end of show AI mix.
Yeah, you'll want to stick around for two toe-tappers for sure.
But first, uh, as part of our this is how the sausage is made.
We are going to determine what we'll play as our end of show ISO.
Once again, I have two.
John has one.
I'm sure it's an AI version.
Uh, I, of course, just have regular people, and here we go.
This is outrageous.
Okay.
And the gift that keeps on giving from Austin, Texas.
Blue Kid.
I'm sorry.
Those are my entrants for today.
Yeah.
Either way, I mean, I like Alex Jones, whatever he does, but I don't know if that's very good.
Uh, for the end of the show, anyway.
So I got it.
You're right.
It's this is uh creation, and here he goes.
Tell us proof it is the best podcast in the universe.
How can we how can we not do that?
I mean, if you're just gonna shill it in with best podcasting universe, we're the best, we're the awesomest, donate.
Of course we're gonna use Ow!
What was that?
What did you do?
I hurt myself.
I didn't mean that.
Did something really bad.
What I meant to do was hit this one and say it is time for John's tip of the day.
Create a bastard, you and me.
Just the chip with JCD.
And sometimes Adam.
All right, I'm gonna go to a generalized tip.
Mm-hmm.
Uh, and this is a wine tip for everybody out there, especially the ladies.
Hello, ladies.
Uh.
And this is uh triggered by the exploding bottles at Costco.
Oh.
So there's a recall of some some of this wine that Costco has, and Costco has a pretty good one, but they're all good, and the wine that everyone should check out.
It's and this is called Moscato Dusty.
That's M-O-S-C-A-T-O.
D apostrophe A-S-T-I.
It's a sweet, bubbly wine.
It's not as it's not like a champagne bubbly, it's a light sparkling wine.
It's sweet.
The alcohol is low.
It's like seven percent on a lot of these.
Sometimes it gets to 10.
Uh.
And it's every one I've ever had in my life.
I've had a lot of them.
Uh they're all they seem to be all be good at whatever price, they run around 12 to 15 to 16 bucks, maybe.
I think Costco has one for under 10 that explodes.
Uh in some states, I don't know what the deal is.
I listened to every single state except for Texas for some reason.
No, no, they didn't have any exploding bottles in California either.
Oh.
There was only about twenty states where they were blowing up.
And uh, and you didn't even have to uh take it back.
You could just show them a receipt and you get your money back.
So you get free bottles of this stuff.
Uh I would just recommend if you have a bottle, they said don't open it because it might blow.
I would say just put on some goggles, wear some gloves, yes, and open it.
And if it doesn't blow up, you're in good shape.
You have a nice bottle of sh a free uh moscato dusty.
Now, do you have uh a tip on how to approach this exactly?
It's a sweet wine for it's it's a it's chilled, it's a summer sipper, it's good for the uh upcoming Indian summer.
It's a summer sipper, and the problem with it is Mimi has this issue, and most people will.
You can't not drink the whole bottle.
Yeah, it's uh is that only Mimi, really?
Well, I think a lot of people will run into if you've ever had Moscato Dusty, you will find this hard to resist just drinking it down.
It is a superior product, it's a great, it's an afternoon thing.
It's supposed to be a dessert wine, but I wouldn't have it for dessert.
It's not really sweet enough.
It's kind of awkward for dessert, it's really just a casual drinker.
There you go.
There it is, everybody.
John's tip of the day.
Get the non-exploding kind.
It drinks better.
Create fast for you and me.
Just the chip with JC D. And sometimes Adam.
Created by Dana Brunetti.
Yeah, well, there we go.
Created by Dana Brunetti.
Okay.
Uh, let me see.
Uh, I think we have uh mutton meat and music coming up next.
Oh.
Sir Bemrose will turn 40 48 on Tuesday.
I'm sorry, Bemrose.
I didn't realize that.
Happy birthday.
Happy birthday.
Special uh special mention for you.
There you go.
And uh end of show mixes.
We have uh Jeffrey Corker, repeat.
It was so good, I have to play it again.

I'm sure there will be something to deconstruct if it's not free speech.
Or something of the like.
Or some pod that someone said something dumb on, will be here for you to help you through it all, make you sound smart at the water cooler.
And uh I am coming to you as we do twice a week from the heart of the Texas Hill Country.
