nation
media assassination episode
1227 this is
no agenda cutting through red
tape
broadcasting live from
opportunities 33
here in the frontier of Austin
Texas
capital of the drone star state
in the
morning everybody
I'm Adam curry and from
northern Silicon
Valley where there's virtually
nobody on
the freeways next week at this
time
they'll be blood I'm John C
Dvorak for
those of you who tuned in to
feel calm
and serene that opening I'm
sure helped
a lot blood in the streets stop
it stop
it yes Edie
we'll check in first how's
everyone
there when okay yeah it was
fine yeah
okay well stir-crazy say they're
stir-crazy
not yet button by this time
next week
for sure
my my niece has corona virus
which nice
is this this is well it's an is
it Mike
so my cousin's daughter is that
a nice I
did you're asking the wrong guy
yeah is
this the one that told you you
don't
have a high enough security
level no but
she could be one of those but
no she's
not that was pretty actually
was pretty
harsh she a couple days she was
very
sick yeah but she's at home now
so she
it looks like she's gonna be
okay did
she go to the hospital
oh yeah no she was in the
hospital that
did the other had to take of the
hospital does she she was
puking and a
fever and just not good
puking yeah that's a new one I
that was
not a part of the set as far as
I'm not
a part of this set and every
time
somebody brings something up
you know
but as part of the set or
somebody
ad-libs like Trump yeah said
something
so jet PBS is all over him now
I found
something that I picked up from
Chinese national you know
Chinese
Communist Party news they were
describing the symptoms and they
included at least with the
Wuhan version
that they had uh couldn't junk
to Vitus
isn't that something with your
eyes yeah
huh that's interesting I only
heard it
once that I only heard on the
Chinese
Network what one has ever
mentioned
conjunctivitis anywhere and I
never
heard the puking part when you
that
could have been part of fever
could have
been anything I don't know but
she's
tested and she's tested
positive I know
that we do seem to have a
possible
off-ramp though in this in this
whole
thing and there's a lot of
weird stuff
going on around it which brings
into
question some of the team
members that
we see on stage although a
couple team
members appear to have been
dropped as I
was watching over the weekend
no sooner that we talked on
Thursday
about the chloroquine which had
apparently gone through a some
small
trial in France no sooner had
we talked
about it then the president
came out and
pitched it and this this
started off a
very unique set of events which
I don't
think has been picked up very
well by
the m5m gee I wonder what no it
was
picked up well let me give you
the whole
piece of what was picked up or
not
because it started off and I
think this
was the right way to roll it
out and and
let me back up the president is
at a
degrade level for his for his
briefings
they're no good he's not good
at this
and it he just looks cavalier
he gets
into little pissy fights of
course
whenever you know whenever
someone
lashes out at him about you
know about
it being racist or whatever
then we're
not fast enough then he
immediately goes
back to I shut down it's just
it's not
helpful and no one cares he's
not he's
not doing a good job at all in
fact
Cuomo
who was doing kind of the
pre-show to
Trump's briefings to the past
three days
people love him and he's
sitting at a
desk and he's got a PowerPoint
and he's
going through things and he's
got his
and if his emergency outfit on
and makes
it it makes him look very dare
I say
presidential there's even some
noise now
that Biden and Bernie are a
little
worried about how well he's
doing that
he could just jump in and save
everything wouldn't that be
crazy Tom
but Governor Cuomo yes yeah
yeah he
stinks people like him I'm not
saying I
like him but before we go on
then why
don't we let's get this out of
the way
okay which is the Cuomo versus
Cuomo CNN
spat this is well worth it
curfew I don't like the word
curfew
maybe we should just set up for
people
don't know Governor Cuomo's is
his
brother yes brother
yeah his brother is Chris Cuomo
from CNN
the and also known as the Cuomo
kid
curfew I don't like the word
curfew dad
tried to have a curfew for me I
never
got past the resentment but I
do believe
you'll see the numbers don't
slow your
problems with the curfew so
these swaps
just thing you know I never
fight you
violated the curfew all the
time of
course the much pain but that's
a
different story
I don't believe in rules
Governor Andrew
Cuomo I appreciate you coming
on the
show I love you I'm proud of
what you're
doing I know you're working
hard for
your state but no matter how
hard you're
working there's always time to
call mom
she wants to hear from you just
so you
know yeah I called mom I called
mom
before I came on this show by
the way
she said I was her favorite she
never
said good news is she said you
were her
second favorite second favorite
son
we both know neither of us are
mom's
first or second favorite in the
family I
can't believe you're lying to my
audience you've blown the
credibility of
entire interview I should have
ended it
the second favorite son listen
to the
word listen to politicians a
very tricky
throw a word in there after the
first
time you said it creates a lot
of doubt
but I imagine you clarify me
straight
across the plate stay straight
across
the plate stay strong stay for
your
people and I appreciate you
being here I
love you brother
oh lordy what a jackass that's
what
these that all about I have no
idea the
whole thing is out of calm yes
it
doesn't make a lot of sense and
these
two guys either hey t so what
would he
have him on the show for I
think Chris
was resentful that he brought
up that
somebody booked him I don't
know I was
like it okay who's irked about
something
and by the way did get a I so
out of it
though okay
hold on a second oh I see it
already yes
we'll give it a shot here I
don't
believe in rules yeah
possibility
possibility I may have
something later
on for us to to counter that
we'll check
it out so the president wants
to pitch
something he comes out and he
first I
think does what would be
appropriate
although he man he's so bad
he's just
not getting the message out as
a lot of
homina homina homina but he
sets it up
by revisiting his right to try
legislation yes it was
legislation
passed by both the House and
the Senate
and that's the precursor to
what he is
going to pitch and you know one
of the
things that I'm most proud of
that I got
was right to try that's where
somebody
who's ill somebody who's very
sick
terminally ill usually in past
administrations we signed us a
year and
a half ago you wouldn't be able
to even
think about getting any of the
drugs
that may be showing great
promise now
and they've been trying for
many decades
to get this approved and it
sounds
simple but it's not because it's
liability involved and lots of
other
things and I was able to get it
approved
working with Congress right to
try this
is beyond right to try what
we're
talking about today is beyond
right to
try right to try and that would
be
trying something off
prescriptions that
what it's called
I want to say oh your date off
labeled
awfully that's legal that's
legal but
you would write to try implies
is that
off-label prescribing is legal
it's done all the time and the
doctors
do it and it's an Department of
pharmaceutical companies like
love it
like it that way cuz the thing
of
labeling really Latins they
love it
except if it's out of patent
and they
don't own it they don't love it
then and
I think we're going to see that
popping
up this is about the Clark Quin
which is
an anti malaria drug and I have
another
doctors and explain exactly
what it does
but here's Trump pitching it
but this is
me outright to try if treatment
is known
to be safe in Europe Japan or
other
nations are effective against
the virus
will use that information to
protect the
health and safety of American
people
nothing will stand in our way
as we
pursue any avenue to find what
best
works against this horrible
virus now a
drug called chloroquine and
some people
would add to it hydroxy
hydroxychloroquine so
chloroquine or
hydroxychloroquine now this is
a common
malaria drug it's also a drug
used for
strong arthritis somebody has
pretty
serious arthritis also uses
this in a
somewhat different form it is
known as a
malaria drug and it's been
around for a
long time and it's very
powerful and
it's shown very encouraging
very very
encouraging early results and
we're
going to be able to make that
drug
available almost immediately
and that's
where the FDA has been so great
they
they've gone through the
approval
process it's been approved and
they did
it they took it down from many
many
months to immediate so we're
gonna be
able to make that drug
available by
prescription or States I spoke
with
Governor Cuomo about it at
great length
last night and he wants to be
right on
he wants to be first on the
line let's
let's just understand exactly
what this
drug does dr. William grace is
at one of
the he's an oncologist but is
it one of
the hospitals in New York that
are
filling up forget which one it
was for a
moment and he'll explain in this
interview how though first how
the virus
attacks the immune system and
there's
some kind of I guess relatively
new
information about what is
actually
happening why older people have
issues
it not necessarily because
you're old
and decrepit but because of how
you're
mature your immune system is
mature and
that is actually what creates a
response
from which you can die one of
the things
you have to realize here is
there's a
paradox and that the immune
systems of
people who are very young are
very
immature that's why they get
vaccinations and as you get
older you
get exposed to more and more of
external
you know threats and so your
immune
system matures even though your
body
ages and maybe becomes weaker
but your
immune system is not weaker
there by the
many of the people who are
dying from
kovat 19 pneumonitis are dying
from what
we call in medicine a cytokine
storm
where the immune system is
basically
goes crazy in fighting the
virus and
kills off a lot of healthy lung
tissue
so that's a little different
than the
what we've heard so far but it
makes
total sense
and there is a way to combat
this and
that's possibly with Clerkin
and so the
way in which i'd roxy
chloroquine works
is not only in some of its more
well-documented you know
prevention of
the prevention of replication
of the
virus but also it is an
immunosuppressive agent that's
why it's
used in wilmut arthritis and
lupus and
other inflammatory states to
cool down
the immune system so it's felt
that it
probably works in two ways to
as a
checkpoint against the cytokine
storm
and to as a
ability to to inhibit
replication of the
virus and despite what we've
been
hearing and reading there had
been
several tests done not the type
that the
SDA would typically want but
with
success and the doctor has some
numbers
to back it up yes you'll see
that
articles in China there was a
randomized
hundred-person trial there was
a trial
in Japan and in South Korea and
of
course the most recent and most
exciting
data coming out of Marseilles
France
where the combination of
hydroxychloroquine and as
Ephraim Ison
managed to get 100% of the
patients
disease-free I mean literally
virus free
in in five days and the
significance and
then again this data was
weighted
against the success of the
treated group
there were more men in the
treated group
and do worse there were more
older
people in the treated group and
and the
older people do worse and there
were
more people in the treated
group with
pneumonia in the in the lungs
and in
spite of that for the the
people who got
the combination therapy did
remarkably
well so well that the
significance is
that there was less than one
chance in
10,000 that the data was there
by chance
alone and as you know in
medicine today
we use one chance in 24
sophistical
significance but chances of
less than
one chance in 10,000 is an
extraordinary
outcome that's why these doctors
published this work because
they thought
it was morally imperative to
save lives
you know in a perfect world you
would
have a nice randomized trial and
everybody would digest it you
know after
four or five or six months when
it would
eventually appear in the New
England
Journal of Medicine but they
wanted this
out there now because they
thought it
would save lives and my
experience is
that in New York it is going to
save
lives and the combination may
save many
more lives so sounds like a cool
off-ramp that we could take and
the
president in his two
fashion went out and said the
following
with his usual caveats so those
are two
that are out now essentially
approved
for prescribed use and I think
it's
going to be very exciting I
think it
could be a game-changer and
maybe not
maybe not and maybe not but I
think it
could be based on what I see it
could be
a game-changer very powerful
they're
very powerful so I want every
American
to know that we're doing
everything we
can and these actions are
important next
steps I mean for the FDA to act
the way
they acted with this kind of
speed is an
incredible thing normally
they'd say
well we can have it by next
year now
here's where it got interesting
so Trump does all this the FDA
guy
standing behind him he's
looking a bit
like the CDC guy you know now
that CDC
has effectively been taken out
of the
equation because they screwed
it up so
bad
the FDA guys behind him he's
like yeah
you know he's kind of looking
like that
but then fout she takes the
stage just
as with malaria it might be
used as a
prophylaxis against
co-offensive the
answer is no and and the the
evidence
that you're talking about John
is
anecdotal evidence so as the
Commissioner of FDA and the
president
mentioned yesterday we're
trying to
strike a balance between making
something with a potential of
an ant of
an effect to the American people
available at the same time that
we do it
under the auspices of a
protocol that
would give us information to
determine
if it's truly safe and truly
effective
but the information that you're
referring to specifically is
anecdotal
it was not done in a controlled
clinical
trial so you really can't make
any
definitive statement about it
so dr. foutch she clearly has
looked at
different data than the doctor
at the
hospital in New York and he's
cutting it
well let's stop for a second
how she
brought this up but but this
was a
rigged question and
specifically had
nothing to do it with a guy in
New York
had to say
yet because the questionnaire
said is it
useful as a prophylaxis which
is not a
medicine for treatment I think
if you
said he specifically asked if
it was a
prophylaxis and it's foul she
said no
and that's what all that if
you'd
listened to any of these clips
from the
mainstream media they play the
Trump
thing like you did then they
they
skipped a question and they
just play
Falchi saying no it's no good
and that's
my point and that's my big
question is
rig that's bullshit but that's
my point
my point is what what what
people are
seeing is his answer I'll make
it a
little more clear I will point
out that
he said that he specifically
said now
the studies they're anecdotal
which I
think can be disputed that we'd
like to
do big trials I'm just
listening to what
he says then he did a round of
media and
he went on Fox to walk some of
it back
now from the briefing earlier
today you
seem to dismiss the suggestion
that
chloroquine an anti-malaria
medication
can have much of an effect and
if I
heard you correctly said we
just haven't
had enough time to figure that
out is
that an accurate reading on
your answer
for that indication you know
I'm not
dismissing it at all and I hope
that
that that interpretation was in
widespread what I said that we
don't
have definitive proof that it
works so
what we need to do since there
are
suggestions anecdotally that it
works
try to get it available but to
do it in
the context of a protocol where
we go we
accomplish two things we make
something
that's maybe hope and promising
for
someone at the same time we
determine
whether or not it's safe and
whether or
not it actually does work I
wasn't
dismissing it I was saying we
need to be
careful so he wants to be
careful wants
to slow it down wants to take
their time
and it wasn't until I saw him
being
interviewed by the most
important man in
the universe that I realized
that he may
have a second agenda because
this is not
the only compound that is being
tested
and getting ready for
treatments out
she's probably got a pat
on something else so who do you
think
interviewed him who of all the
world's
celebrities the most important
man the
man we all should look to as
our hero
our Savior we really need to
hear from
him Don Lemon close Mark
Zuckerberg
cuz of course Mark Zuckerberg
has to
interview everybody from his
doing
interviewing anybody well I'll
tell you
one thing
what's because we don't have
video he's
gonna start off and he has
problems with
his IFB and so he's wife out
she is
speaking Zuckerberg has taken
this thing
out of his ear foul she still
has the
IFB is a inter fold what it
would extend
for again how I can't even
remember the
possible intercom fold back so
the
control room can talk to you in
the
control room and we see this
happening
that yeah instead of talking to
the host
they talk to the guests and
things go
wrong look what happens at the
beginning
of this interview everyone and
thanks
for joining I'm here today with
dr.
Anthony Fauci who is the
director of the
National Institute for
allergies and
infectious disease and is the
nation's
top infectious disease expert
who's
involved in leading our
response against
the corona virus so dr. pouchy
thank you
so much for for joining today
and I was
hoping that we could just get
started
maybe you could tell us about
where we
are with the situation overall
where are
we with the spread of this and
in the
overall government response
well we are
certainly still in the
escalation phase
of this outbreak mark as you
know
globally different countries
are at
different phases of the
outbreak China
got hit very early on which was
the
origin of where the virus first
came out
in Ron yeah what's it we okay
yeah okay
so I just wanted to tell you
what
happened there so by the way
it's
interrupted back is what is B
stands for
he mentions China origin and
China and
immediately someone's yelling
in the
wrong IFB namely his it's the
timing is
uncanny
any got hit very early on which
was the
origin of where the virus first
came out
in Ron yeah
what's it okay yeah I'm telling
you
someone was saying hey get him
off of
China tell him not to talk
about China
and China
I'm sure Facebook has some
agenda which
is why I watched this dumb
interview
wait a minute let's back up a
minute
where was this interview was
played on
Facebook yes and I got a copy
I have Beezus hands or what
people
normally do in the podcast no
it was Pro
it was Pro I F bees yeah and he
was at
some office maybe so they had
so they do
what you just the people should
know
this what Adams describing here
these
things were only used in
professional
environments where you have
your usually
a lavalier mic and then you
have this
thing in your ear which is us
which is
curiously a sound audio device
that
doesn't have any electronics in
it
successfully in the back it's
got a
little speaker that's with a
tube but
the tube of sound this
particular sound
really literally sound yes and
it goes
into the and I don't and I
think the
reasons for that are varied but
they
that's what they do and and
it's used so
the control-room can punch a
button and
talk right to you individually
you or
Zuckerberg or fight you who
every year
who's got these things plugged
in and
they will tell you stuff as
you're
talking and and really good the
people
that are very talented with it
I've been
here can actually tell an
entire story
from scratch from somebody
talking in
their ear yes they're that and
use I've
seen it happen I think I can
almost do
it
but it's it's very uncanny to
watch if
you and so so what what the
situation is
here is that because it was set
up for
pros but this is not a real pro
environment somebody probably
pushed the
wrong the wrong button and so
instead
and so mark first had to get
rid of it
because it was guess something
was
squawking in his ear and then
the minute Fouts he says the
origin and
China booms someone's on the
inner and I
see this happen a lot these
hitting the
wrong buttons because and it's
writing
is relatively new that they're
really
pushing guests and prompting
them I'm
just seeing it more and more
certainly
on Fox in this arena is not new
and
broadcasters know I'm seeing
more of the
guests being prompted more more
of it oh
and yeah a Fox in particular in
particular but then Zuckerberg
of course
spoke to many scientists
because you
know he and Elon Musk and Tim
Cook
they're all going to save the
world
because they're all meeting and
doing
important things
curiously they're not hams I'm
not so
sure
Zuckerberg might be and and
that's where
foutch II of course with his
guard down
because what the hell is this
it's on
Facebook I think he lets the
cat out of
the bag remember we're talking
about him
purposely slowing down the
approval of
chloroquine although I think the
president has pretty much just
buffaloed
his way through and and there
are
already a lot of doses on the
way to New
York and he and Cuomo have a
deal I
think that he's gonna try it so
here is
Falchi I talk to a lot of
scientists now
who basically you know all have
hypotheses of compounds or or
things
that they love to get tested
what do you
what would you like to see have
happen
there to prioritize which ones
are the
are the most optimistic and
what do you
think what that strategy
overall well
it's a great question cuz it's
exactly
happening and I like the
strategy so
there are a number of already
approved
drugs or drugs that have been
developed
but almost approved not quite
the foods
that are now being looked at
because of
initial either in vitro or
animal data
work the jesting that they may
be
helpful give you some examples
there's a
drug called REM desapear
which is a drug that was
developed by
Gilead as an antiviral we tried
it in
Ebola it didn't work as well as
some of
the other drugs but it's there
what
we're gonna do now is their
clinical
trials going on right now
both in China and in the United
States
the see if it works it's likely
that one
or more these drugs and there
are
several are going to be out
there to see
an already developed drug if it
can work
another one is interesting
there's a lot
of buzz on on the on the
internet about
this Oh mind you John it's not
something
the president suggested there's
a lot of
buzz on the internet if it can
work
another one is interesting
there's a lot
of buzz on on the on the
internet about
this and that is a drug called
chloroquine or
hydroxychloroquine which
is a drug that's been approved
for
decades very cheap that film
you learned
earlier yeah used in malaria
and used in
certain autoimmune diseases
like lupus
there's some indication in the
test tube
that it might have some
activity yes
they said today that they are
gonna see
if we can do some expanded use
access
getting people who might want
to use it
off-label namely since it's an
approved
drug so your point is extremely
well
taken I don't know man
that sounds like that sounds
like a
Pharma shield douchebag besides
that the
chloroquine is what he was
saying
doesn't work and it was just
antic total
oh yeah now now it's in the
test tube
and it's big on the internet
through
promising and there's a buzz
and that's
the buzz on the Internet
dude he's already in trials he
is
already in trials with remedy
severe and
he should know because the vet
he's very
own where he comes from National
Institute of Health did a study
in 2005
with coronavirus on primates
with
incredibly high success rate
now I don't
know if they if he's gone back
and
looked at his own research but
it's
there but no no this is just a
test tube
was on the internet this clip
by the way
where he said he mentioned
chloroquine
as if he'd never heard of it
after
blasting it is ludicrous and by
the way
this is the stuff that JC took
I mention
we mentioned this before to get
rid of
his corona virus which he
believed he
had a case of and he we looked
into and
found chloric when he says the
downside to chloroquine which
is never
mentioned by these people and I
believe
was one of the reasons why
thought she
was not saying anything
positive about
it
in the earlier press
conferences is that
you have to have a lot of blood
tests
and make sure it's not damaging
your
liver and so you got up you got
your
right there you got your own no
liability oh my god what we're
gonna do
well there's also and I've
received so
many emails from people thank
you
producers everywhere give me
all kinds
of and we have producers and
interesting
places which we'll find out
later it
also apparently can has side
effects of
really weird dreams could cause
some
depression and it's not it's
not without
side effects obviously but it
that
brings me to the clip I want to
play
because they're not Marines it
into
integrator focus okay which is
the
report the updated the co vid
PBS this
is the covin report update
number one
I've got two it's a two-parter
this is
PBS going through and giving us
a
briefing on what's going on and
how
everybody's full of crap and
trumps a
bad guy more of the country is
closing
down tonight trying to contain
the
corona virus pandemic New York
State and
Illinois have now joined
California in
taking that step with more
states
expected to follow meanwhile
President
Trump invoked emergency powers
to move
medical supplies into place as
quickly
as possible as US infections
top 15,000
with more than 200 deaths
william
brangham begins our country in
much of
california stay at home orders
have
already brought much of public
life to a
halt and today those orders
expanded
statewide
governor Gavin Newsom asked the
entire
state 40 million people to stay
home he
cited an analysis that half the
state
could be infected in the next
eight
weeks if more aggressive moves
weren't
taken so he ordered that
nothing but the
most essential activities
continue we
will have social pressure that
will
encourage people to do the
right thing
just a nod and look saying hey
maybe you
should reconsider just being
out there
on the beach being 20
too strong at a park it's time
for all
of us to recognize as
individuals and as
a community we need to do more
to meet
this moment it's unclear how
the new
orders will be enforced but
it's one of
the most drastic containment
efforts
underway across the country
another huge
effort New York Governor Andrew
Cuomo
ordered every employer in his
state to
keep their workers at home 100%
of the
workforce
must stay home these are
non-essential
services essential services
have to
continue to function
grocery stores need food
pharmacies need
drugs your internet has to
continue to
work the water has to turn on
when you
turn the faucet
so there are essential services
that
will continue to function
yes oh that was the end of that
was the
end of it yes I'm sorry I
remember
cutting it now is waiting for
more yeah
or I may have lost my
connection the
Internet continues to work well
anyway
so that's kind of the lead in
it so now
we go into like the detailing
some of
the issues going on and we do
we include
the foul Qi denying the
chloroquine
thing now we also have Trump
being
condemned condemned for his
description
of the disease itself an
Illinois
governor issued a
shelter-in-place order
effective tomorrow these states
have
seen a surge in kovat 19 cases
and they
along with Washington State are
the
hardest hit in the country their
hospital systems are already
being
stressed and critical protective
supplies are running low the
White House
offered is some forms of relief
today
President Trump's that he had
invoked
the defense production act and
directed
certain companies to change
their focus
and produce supplies needed for
the
coronavirus fight and the
president also
announced an extension to the
April 15
tax filing deadline we're
moving it all
the way out to July 15th no
interest no
penalties your new date will be
July
15th in the move to stem the
spread of
the virus across countries he
announced
the u.s. and Mexico had agreed
to close
down the southern border to
non-essential travel but in
what turned
into a testy contentious press
conference the president also
said
several things that are
factually wrong
for example he cited the wrong
symptoms
for kovat 19 they're seizing
this
sniffling they don't feel good
they have
a temperature they're a lot of
different
things actual symptoms are
fever but
also dry cough and trouble
breathing
sneezing and sniffling or not
did you put that in like whoa
they get
creative over there he implied
that an
unproven anti-malaria drug
could prevent
infection there's zero proof of
that one
of his top health officials dr.
Anthony
foul she had to correct the
record
moments later the answer is no
wow and
contrary to all public health
guidance
that the president implied the
US didn't
need additional testing for the
virus
very positive things about
testing it's
able to test millions of people
but we
inherited a broken old frankly a
terrible system we fixed it and
we've
done a great job
I am I very appreciate your
1930s
throwback sound effects it
really does
spruce it up a little bit
before we continue because I
think we
can go down this path for a bit
I've
done a lot of research into the
two
questions that keep getting
asked over
and over again and there's a
disconnect
with I think the American
public at
large somehow people in America
believe
that the federal government is
your mom
and dad and has everything
under control
and can just do anything
anything you
need because we're America we
can get
for you and it starts with the
masks
question and what is I've not
I've yet
to find a single report where
someone
honestly says masks were no
longer
produced in the United States
they were
produced in China China
withheld masks
and gowns from shipping to the
United
States no one reports on that
honestly
and fairly you know we have
companies in
the United States who make
orde-lees
stockpile construction masks
and that's
right in the president's
backyard so he
called up his his builder
buddies and
said hey I'm gonna get you a
liability
waiver for these so you can
hand them
over to the hospitals that's
happening
there's now manufacturing in
without
having to invoke the defense
production
act which everyone is pushing
for come
on come on come on cuz you know
that's
the war machine just wants yeah
we can
force people to do stuff I mean
while
the companies are money the
companies
are gladly doing it they're
doing
everything they can they're
donating
masks that people are changing
that
they're tooling so they can
create you
know ventilators or to
jerry-rig them so
it's a lot of interesting
things going
on but you know the the
government has
is trying to connect the states
and the
hospitals where they can get
the masks
you don't want the government
in between
still it'll match it let's say
here we
can get you this but we here
talk to
them directly buy it and get it
in and
this is being presented as the
Trump
orange man bad he screwed it up
it could
completely then let's talk
about that
which is the testing and the
testing
truly went wrong with the CDC
and at
this point I'm almost want to
think that
they did it on purpose and so
we lost
some time but now when you get
down to
how this is being spun we have
yet a new
piece to this which is just a
head
shaker and almost for me
confirms that
the elites know we're on the
tail end of
this we're going to come out
okay
because when you can politicize
to the
angle and degree the joy read
does on
MSNBC with I think another
blatant lie
in there that I mean then you
either
have no scruples and you don't
give a
crap or you know that we're
getting
towards the end the fact that
we also
have an outbreak where the
president
United States did not take
seriously his
own intelligence community
saying no
this is gonna be bad again the
intelligence community no names
no
agency names no the intelligence
community the same ones what do
we just
have recently the intelligent
oh yes
that Russia was already hacking
our
election turned out to be kind
of
exaggerated no apparently these
Intel
agencies are back and they've
got news
seriously his own intelligence
community
saying no this is gonna be bad
members
of the Intel community in the
Senate if
Intel committee in the Senate
knew it
was gonna be bad only told rich
donors
didn't tell everyone
meanwhile only told rich donors
can you
believe this shit this is insane
donors didn't tell everyone else
meanwhile the president is
downplaying
something that his media his
affinity
media you know picks up his
line that
it's nothing that it's a hoax
now these
are the same older of course he
never
said that but that's now where
the
narrative is set and cast and
it's in
stone forever he said the whole
thing
was a hoax no he didn't but ok
this is
not what it is a hoax now these
are the
same people who tend to be
older and who
tend to live in states that
don't have
health care Washington Post
reports one
in eight Trump voters the
county will
not stop what state what is the
state
nicknamed me the state that has
no
health care what are they
talking about
there's no doctors there's no
hospitals
just listen it's only 30 more
seconds
you you'll wet yourself
listening to
what she's saying here
yeah there's no health care
these are
the same people who tend to be
older and
who tend to live in states that
don't
have health care Washington
Post reports
one in eight Trump voters lives
in a
County with no ICU beds many
Trump
voters live in states that
refused to
expand the Affordable Care Act
so people
without a lot of money don't
have any
health insurance how lopsided
could we
wind up seeing this outbreak
become
doctor jaw because Donald
Trump's own
followers are now behind the
curve and
joy to your point I mean there
is no
doubt about it that we're gonna
have a
lot of states that have not
invested in
Medicaid that have not invested
in in
making sure everybody's covered
that are
gonna have real problems this
is gonna
be a national challenge that
we're all
gonna have to work on I'm just
shaking
my head you don't care about
people joy
read whatever you're doing here
is not
sincere its political its
political and
you're saying that oh yeah will
trump
basically why don't you say
Trump people
they're gonna die
they're just gonna die because
they're
dumb that tend to be older I'm
not sure
what that is do you tend to be
older or
is that just on Thursdays yeah
come on
and then of course we have a a
group of
never Trump errs what's the
name of this
group it's
Republicans for the rule of law
and they
and they have a time line ad
which is on
the internet I have not seen it
on
television yet but apparently
it's an ad
for television it is a 60
second and
it's a time line where they go
that will
you see on the screen all these
different clips of Trump and
when you
hear - that's the counter of
cases going
up and the dates changing and
he's lying
and he's no good the words
about a
pandemic get this going or not
at all a
concern do
well we putting my shut it down
a lot of
people think that goes away in
April we
have contained this I won't say
airtight
the pretty close to airtight it
will be
down to close to zero it's
going to
disappear like a miracle it will
disappear they can have
vaccines I think
relatively soon you're not
taking this
seriously enough at CNN the
president
say for example he's gonna
continue with
with political rallies is this
sending
the right message I'm going to
a rally
there's no reason that you
shouldn't go
hands in our line of work you
shake
hands no I don't take
responsibility at
all divided something that we
have
tremendous control of
acculturating your
response to this crisis
I'd read it at 10 this is a
pandemic I
felt it was a pandemic long
before I was
called a pandemic so you know
Trump may
have made massive mistakes he
may have
done genius work I don't know I
don't
want to hear it from him and I
don't
want to hear it from the media
until we
have a handle on this
this is counterproductive and
I'm gonna
remember these people the
Republic rule
of law Republicans with fu it's
unbelievable so either they
really know
that this is almost over or
they just
not human beings it's pretty
bad and you
know they're condemning him for
shaking
hands this is a good one
there is a this seems to be to
me a very
strong this is a worldwide
phenomenon
this isn't just here or getting
this
kind of weirdness you have the
toilet-paper phenomenon and you
have
that shut down everything
shuttered and
it's almost second test run to
see can
we if we had a one-world
government
could we all pull together in
the same
way right one edict is that
possible I
wonder let's find out well this
I'd love
to get to those theories in a
moment
just a few more things I think
it kind
of starts with South Korea
South Korea
is the shining light the beacon
of how
to do it right and their death
rate is
extremely low
now that they've tested quite a
lot
that's how the death rate works
or the
morbidity rate
I caught an interview with the
South
Korean Foreign Minister a
charming lady
and I have three clips that
pertain to
what we're talking about here
starting
off with their strategy we have
a very
good health care system to
begin with we
have a system that is highly
wired as
you can imagine and fully
utilizing that
we have dealt with this this
outbreak
from the very beginning with
you know
just full transparency and
that's the
way we've won the public trust
and
support for this and
as you say we are seeing a
stabilizing
trend for three days in a row
the number
of newly confirmed positive
cases is
smaller than the number of
those fully
cured and released so their
curve is
trending down true or not
doesn't matter
they can show a graph and
people believe
it interestingly they went
through the
same curve we did with testing
well
first of all testing is central
because
that leads to early detection
it minimizes further spread and
it
quickly treats those found with
the
virus and I think that's the
that's the
key behind our very low
fatality rate as
well I think the the our system
quickly
approved the the testing system
after
the Chinese authorities
released the
genetic sequence of the virus in
mid-january our health
authorities
quickly conferred with the the
the
research institutions here and
then and
shared that result with the
pharmaceutical companies who
then
produced the reagent and the
equipment's
needed for the testing and so I
think
our testing is nearly a quarter
of a
million at this point at 2020
six to
eight thousand as of today so
we had a
similar issue where the CDC
received the
the data they created the test
their
test was no good now why I
don't know
you can't necessary of course
that's
being blamed on Trump because
of some
vague replacement of people in
the
National Security Council
bullcrap
the CDC fumbled it I'm gonna
just
presume that that was a an
accident and
then about this it happens it
happens
and then Trump went to the FDA
yeah
which is that everyone's all up
and
eyeball okay we should have
good South
Korea look what the ad
authoritative
couple of things find at that
number
wasn't useful which is they
only tested
250,000 people be thank you
that is like
less I mean their population is
50
million our population is 350
million so
have that when when the CDC had
to do
testing it wasn't for gonna be
for a
measly 250,000 people it had to
be for
at least a million or two and
so that
there's all these that just out
of whack
though this comparison with
South Korea
and everyone wasn't doing the
comparison
because it makes Trump look bad
but the comparison is just out
of whack
it makes no sense but okay
let's just do
a korea's better than we are
and by the way if anyone thinks
that
korea so great watch the movie
parasite
and see how these lower classes
live it
was after all your favorite
movie of the
year so the CDC has a
centralized system
where you you know you have to
send them
back they have to process it
and I
believe it was the President
himself who
said okay no good bypass it
rewrite the
rules scrapped the regulations
we have
to have the commercial labs
doing it the
commercial labs still have to
test they
all have different systems we
got one in
Austin I think already has the
home swab
so that was very smart to do
that for a
number of reasons although
maybe not so
smart because man do you really
want to
see the numbers go up and make
everybody
crazy now that we're being
tested
because they go up and it looks
like
we're all gonna die on the same
by the
same token the morbidity rate
goes down
with the more cases that you
can show on
the testing I received an email
from a
dude named Ben in a lab he
wants to be
anonymous for obvious reasons
longtime
producer of the show
[Music]
listening since before episode
200 a
show he says I as a dude named
Ben at a
major Clinical Laboratory was
shown a
report of the positive cases of
corona
virus that have passed through
our lab
after having processed tens of
thousands
of swabs over the last two
weeks the
real rate of positive cases we
have
found is less than 0.1% you
don't get
that
from the numbers were being
shown though
I thought that was an
interesting data
point data points are getting
gonna come
out and the whole thing is
gonna be
embarrassing final clip from
the South
Korean Foreign Minister and I
think this
is this is the template this is
where we
may be going we already see the
logo out
there
they did not quarantine people
and they
have chosen for a different
path which
I'm quite confident will be
recommended
here very soon the other thing
that you
do of course is that you
monitor people
afterwards you're not going
into the
same kind of lock down the
social
exclusion that a lot of European
countries are but instead you're
monitoring people by phone app
again can
you explain why you're doing
that
and not closing down large
chunks of
your country well I think this
is being
faithful to the values of our
very
vibrant democracy with you
tracking
people is the core of our very
vibrant
democracy I mean this needs to
go down
in history pull it back a
little bit
that's too good well I think
this is
being faithful to the values of
our very
vibrant democracy which is
which is open
and and you know the government
fully in
the service of the people and I
have to
say our public is very
demanding and
require you know did you know
expects
the highest standards from
government
services and I think this is
the key the
drive of our of our of our
response to
this and they're not the only
ones lots
of countries are now doing this
we know
about China but we actually
have a promo
reel for the trace together app
from
Singapore play your part in
fighting
Kovac 19 with just two simple
steps one
downloaded drinks together and
help
those around you to set it up
to turn on
your Bluetooth and it is as
simple as
that
get peace of mind for you and
your
family to a community-driven
contact
tracing trace together helps
contact
tracers notify you more quickly
if your
close contact with a Kovac 19
case
whether or not you know the
person but
how does it work trace together
uses
Bluetooth signals to determine
when your
phone is near another phone
that also
has the app installed both
phones
exchange anonymized IDs which
are then
stored in encrypted form only
on your
phone if the user gets infected
with
Kovac 19 he or she will be
asked to give
contact tracers access to the
trace
together data a list of
anonymized IDs
that your phone has been close
to and
that's really it
no geolocation or other
personal data is
collected the anonymized IDs
for help
contact traces quickly identify
and
contact people at high risk of
infection
to provide care and prevent the
spread
of the disease take this time
to 1
download trace together and
help those
around you to send people on
board
halfway through I zoned out
completely
then I heard or say turn on your
Bluetooth a second time I said
wait a
minute
this is just going around and
around in
a circle so it is the worst and
the
music oh yeah it's trying to do
hypnotize the public so I'm
pretty I'm
very sure that we're going to
first of
all the cashless society is
happening I
know we had a little
disagreement about
that on the last show how are
we still
doing the newsletter you said
maybe
we'll see this and I have a
picture
after picture after picture of
people
snapping shots of point of sale
that
says no cash coronavirus we
want to take
ultimate responsibility careful
for our
employees and our customers no
cash card
only so it's going to be very
easy to
demonize
cash and because it was Ted
dross the
Ethiopian that at the World
Health
Organization who said it I take
that
very seriously he's also the
guy that
said morbidity rate of three
point four
and it will go down drastically
over
time but no one ever reports
that so
just taking it to it's forget
about the
app and it'll be very
interesting to see
what people like me will have
to do I
think you automatically just
get a mark
it's like well you don't have a
smartphone you just read on the
map no
matter what this stay-at-home
concept is
going to get legs we're going
to see
stay-at-home as a solution to
things
certainly we've all trained and
we'll
all have an app or multiple
apps or
maybe your phone will have it
built-in
it's time to stay home cower in
place
this will come back maybe next
year you
know we'll have another we'll
have
another one of these we're
going to go
through it because we're not
going to
the the end times yet there's
way too
much money to be made but for
sure you
can count on the messaging
coming that
because we all stayed home co2
levels
drop dramatically there was
much less
pollution in the air you might
have
looked up and you saw was a
beautiful
blue sky and I think we'll have
maybe
quarterly stay-at-home days no
oh yeah
oh yeah because we have proof
that
staying at home saves the
climate we
will have staying at home
weekends or
days or weeks it's coming and
well I
hope not
there has to be a reason for
this it's
not in the numbers and I want
to remind
everybody of this clip that I
played on
the pre I won't play the whole
thing
this clip I played on the last
show at
the top some of the tech
world's biggest
names announced they are joining
together to combat the spread of
misinformation about the corona
virus on
their platforms in a joint
statement
released by Microsoft Facebook
alphabets
Google and Twitter
the tech giant said they will
work
together to quell
misinformation yeah
and let me tell you the extent
that this
is going so someone posts
something on
medium a good
article about the numbers the
numbers
that we've been talking about
for
several weeks that they don't
really add
up is to the response removed
by medium
blocked by Twitter
someone tried to send me
information
about
chloro chloroquine yeah the
document
that he shared on Google Drive
his own
Google with Google Drive and I
went to
the link and it says sorry this
document
violates our community
standards or
Terms of Service is not
available I mean
come on that's private sharing
that
they're now into what they're
what
they're digging into private
sharing on
Google know on Google Drive so
these are
going through your dry so in
other words
what you're telling me is that
if
somebody has private
information that
they're putting on Google dry
their
scandal is actually going
through it yes
it's interesting you say that
because as
I was this you know my head and
my brain
started worrying this morning
around
3:30 and woke up and I was
thinking like
that is so messed up just
imagine what
kind of profile you could build
off of
someone off of your Docs and
your Gmail
[Laughter]
I bet you could build a pretty
good
profile of somebody just by
looking at
their email well that's another
good
reason not to use either system
I used
Google email for one reason
only I don't
know how you're gonna profile
this I use
it because like it's easiest
way to send
you a block eclipse yes and
that's
pretty much all I use it for
and that's
all I use it for you and I
don't use
Google Docs and all very
possible that
if you said what I want to and
I have a
hard disk I can buy a terabyte
drive I
can buy an 8 terabyte drive at
Costco
for 150 bucks I understood my
stuff in
Google's cloud from aptus took
the
borrow to block to block
so the censorship is on and for
some
reason we've put all of our
faith than
no one questions that they're
that
they're blocking in just
articles just
in from
an article about the numbers is
taken
down by medium block by Twitter
on
Facebook I don't know what's
going on
there Instagram and and then
the the
Google Drive it just blew me
away so now
that could have been well I'm
gonna
remain skeptical about the
Google Drive
why I mean I talked to the guy
he said
this is what I sent you and we
and you
know the test is there I have
the the
link and I open up the link and
I get
this block I need to see one
more piece
of evidence so this is what's
going on
and it's just not some bug or a
alright
or something was done done
wrong because
I took us to do that now it's
doable
I've never seen a competitor a
community
Terms of Service block from
from a
Google Drive that's that that's
the
community of to one person
sharing
there's no community it's just
a draw
it's just that file in this
cloud that
you're given to you yeah
where's the
community here let me let me go
well I
guess it community of everyone
at
Google's looking at it yeah okay
actually the so here it is is
from Jay
Donnell you know Jay Donnelly
plaque
Anil used for anti malaria and
lupus
drug is his as ex-wife was on
in the
mid-90s isn't interesting doc
about it I
click on the doc
it opened on the link it opens
up we're
sorry you can't access this
item because
it is in violation of our Terms
of
Service sorry in our community
standards
Terms of Service with a link to
Terms of
Service which of course takes
you in a
rabbit hole so wait wait wait
so a
document about some old product
that is
being sent to you specifically
how
what's worse the terms of
service on
this in terms of services good
maybe the
guys had he's got too much
stuff up
there or something okay dream
on Dvorak
I'm just I'm just dream on it's
it's
almost hard for me to believe
and I'm a
skeptic
that Google is digging through
Google
Docs they're doing it by
Machine mm-hmm
I mean because you can't do it
by hand
well now recall that they said
in that
in that that clip that I didn't
play
fully they said we're because
people are
can't you know can't work
because
they're at home which is a
total lie
because all of these content
checkers
work from home they're
contractors
through third parties we're
switching on
the AI and a lot of stuff might
get DD
platform D listed unfairly but
we won't
be able to do anything yeah we
won't be
able to do anything about it
for now though I mean well even
so let's
stop this stuff let's even drop
that if
it's a docx file that you put
in your
folder and your cloud that
you've rented
or bought or you paid for it's
part of
your system or your service and
it's
just a single file that's
talking about
something and he sends it to
you where's
the violation of the Terms of
Service I
don't know
it sounds to me oh there but
here's the
mistake hold on a second it
sounds to me
as though they're fishing
through files
that they have no business
fishing
through that are closed files
that are
on their on their cloud their
cloud is
completely useless to anyone
who cares
about anything if that's true
so you
have a filing from your
attorney that's
talking about some some
strategy for
your divorce settlement Google
now knows
about it are you gonna tell me
there's
gambling going on there stop it
you can't feign this at this
surprised
this is disgusting him welcome
welcome
citizen let's look at the the
racist
angle for a moment this is
really being
played hard and heavy San Diego
racist
this race before you go to the
racist
thing and I want to go there
but I want
to get the one I have a foul
cheek oh
but when I get out of the way
right sure
this is foul Chi
you know they're asking him
crazy stuff
fun for first of all Judy is
trying to
set foul she have to say
something bad
about Trump and he won't do it
orange
man bad so but but he goes into
this
other thing which is kind of
interesting
this is well let's start with
the Judy
versus thought you here's Judy
trying to
get file cheated that she by
the way
looks like she's getting old
she looks
like she's it looks like the
painting in
her basement has fed somebody
stole it
and started punched say say it
again the
painting in her basement what
the
painting in her basement which
kept kept
her kind of youthful is like
been
destroyed and she's like aging
on the
spot from fretting well it's
possible
she's an old woman who was
fretting a la
disco de Factory Reuters is
reporting
today that the first cases of
kovat 19
reported in the United States
and South
Korea on the same day January
the 20th
but in South Korea they moved
very
quickly they had testing made
available
manufacturers are available
within days
they move very quickly to
identify who
had kovat 19 the
story in the United States has
been a
lot slower it's this country is
still as
you've said not ready with tests
everywhere they're needed what
has gone
wrong here not just with
testing but
with all the equipment and the
preparation and the social
distancing
that that didn't get
implemented until
the last few days to be fair I
don't
think that something has gone
wrong
obviously nothing was perfect
with
regard to the testing we've
gone over
that over and over again about
initially
the system that we use for
testing from
the CDC developing a test Frank
getting
it to the public health of our
eyes was
not designed to the broad type
of
high-throughput testing that
goes out
for the country we are now
really in
that arena now let's look
forward as
opposed to back that's working
but the
other things we're doing I
think that we
are actually being and have
been quite
aggressive I mean whenever you
have an
outbreak if you look at the
history of
outbreaks it's a little bit
like the fog
of war
I mean people try to do the
right thing
and sometimes they get it right
right
from the beginning
sometimes they correct and
really go I
would think where we are right
now in a
good place it isn't perfect by
any means
we still have to get more
equipment and
we're doing something to get
more
equipment we still need to make
sure
that testing is much more
available but
it's getting there really
rapidly
so it shuts her down I mean
she's
obviously I was actually the
nicest I've
heard him about about testing
he's
explained it many different ways
well we messed up you see what
we we
made a mistake I've heard that
he'd said
that in in the house I think
and I think
he sense that he was being set
up and so
he got his hackles up and he
just
defended the whole situation
because
I've heard to her the way she's
asking
these questions she has turned
into a
very negative hyper liberal
progressive
reporter she's not listen to
the teaser
this is what this is what this
PBS's
audience is supposed to be the
intellectual the inteligencia
supposed
to be all these people that are
running
them you know that the smart
people are
supposed to listen to PBS and
they're
being fed stuff like this Judy
teaser
still to come on the news hour
warning
signs the critical days ahead
as the
virus spreads through the US I
should
mention the movie Contagion
which is
such beautiful predictive
programming
for this event and I remember
this
because we went through it with
a
fine-tooth comb in 2010 2011 was
considered that it was a CDC
slash NIH
project
pouchy Ian Lipkin we was that
time was
the CDC director they were all
consultants on this film and
they went
through 12 script rewrites he
remembers
talking about that and I think
we have
said this is this is a set up I
wish I
could find what show that was
but it was
2010-2011 timeframe these
people I've
become very very cynical and
skeptical
about what I've just everything
I'm
seeing now is there's too much
of this
if they really were worried why
would
they keep pushing this this
Trump in the
end the the racist thing I mean
here is
an accounting member San Diego
and well
go ahead I just want to say
before you
go and
the racist thing which I you
know we can
do I want to say that goes it
seems to
me it seems to me because of
your mo
facts podcast mm-hmm it seems
to me that
there's a desperation and the
Democrats
are worried sick that there's
gonna be a
few blacks voting for Trump or
they
bought a pound this home or not
voting
for Democrat or not voting at
all yes
not voting at all but no I
don't think
it I think it's I think they're
feared
that the voting for Trump is I
think if
they don't vote it also hell
are you
gonna do but if they vote for
Trump
there's some sort of I think it
would be
very upsetting to that because
Johnson
promised a black vote to the
Democrats
for the next 100 years he was a
liar to
60s a lot of lying in Texas I'm
telling
you like I said he said with
I'm gonna
deliver the black vote to the
Democrats
for the next 100 years and then
you push
the civil rights like they did
a bunch
of other things and they be
that was the
guarantee and now they're
fearful that
the blacks are gonna go ahead
these guys
haven't done jack shit for us
yeah
that's kind of the kind of the
thinking
the a das definitely are
thinking hey
this is not we're not we're not
participating in this I don't
know how
many are gonna vote for Trump
but I'm I
think the Democrats are dumb
enough to
think that but the end and the
Republicans are also probably
dumb
enough to think it
[Music]
we have the best producers all
right is
it time can I go now to the
sorry you're
interrupting so much
particularly the
racial stuff because it's just
it's so
obvious that but China and I
have to
remind when I when I - I mean I
think
we're just so we're so used to
it but
China is in all of our society
particularly academia lobbyists
the
Chinese lobby in Washington DC
is it's
it's huge entertainment if
they've got
they've got their money and
their and
nothing hey I don't blame him
for doing
it but we're kind of waking up
now and
saying wait a minute there's a
lot of
hot Hollywood yeah well they
bought
everything they've bought a lot
of our
lot the NBA the NBA is another
fantastic
example this you know so what
do we see
the NBA is probably the example
we got
King LeBron saying hey you know
and then
three days later oh we have to
be
careful we say about China
because it
could hurt people could hurt
people's
could hurt people's money
people spoke
good book he said that because
China
rules or I should put it this
way money
rules it's really not even
about China
it's about money when people
see their
paycheck in jeopardy they they
make
interesting decisions so that
there is a
Chinese Lobby that is saying we
have to
stop being called out for this
I can
understand can understand their
reasoning but they're going
about it in
the following way so I'm not
sure what
the connection is this council
member of
San Diego as she's a first
first-generation immigrant I
presume
from China I haven't had time
to look
her up but just listen to what
she says
generation immigrants when I
hear about
this talk about the Chinese
virus I just
roll my eyes and think that is
so old
and I am reminded that these
kinds of
tropes have been raped into a
and culture and history
associating
immigrants with fear and
history has
shown that when we're afraid we
want
someone to blame and we often
turn to
xenophobia and we know that
really so
is this true dude when we're
afraid do
we actually turn to xenophobia
as I
immediately turn to xenophobia
and we
often turn to xenophobia and we
know
that doesn't really solve
anything and
only creates more problems Asian
Americans are actually the
first illegal
immigrants in the US during the
Yellow
Peril era the Chinese in
particular were
seen as dirty diseased taking
away jobs
from good people that of course
led to
the Chinese Exclusion Act fast
forward
today we're even before all
these social
distancing measures Asian
restaurants
have been the first to
financially
suffer and they became ghost
towns and
there are increased reports of
bullying
harassment and violent hate
crimes
against Asian Americans and in
one case
that was reported on CNN a
woman was
attacked on the subway by a man
who
yelled every disease comes from
China
everything comes from China
because
they're disgusting and by the
way this
victim was Thai American
rhetoric from
Washington we cannot ignore it
we must
condemn it right away call it
out and
force our leaders to be
accountable
because our well-being is at
stake and
can I gently remind everyone
that Asian
Americans are American thank
you so you
know there's reasons for this
and it's
not just your typical woke miss
although
I believe that political
correctness and
woke miss is our problem that's
why
people no one's taking a stand
everybody's afraid and I think
there's
it's it's not by coincidence
that we
have New York Los Angeles
Washington New
York California Oregon Illinois
all
super woke leadership in those
cities
and
in there just shutting down
like okay so
stay inside be quiet they're
not they're
afraid to do anything else
because they
know they'll be canceled if
they if they
say well I think we're okay
here we
should wait a couple more a
days not
enough
they're afraid okay back to the
racist
part then Trump clearly sets up
the one
America News reporter with the
stupidest
gambit ever I mean I was
insulted by
this I get it you're under fire
for that
for a lot of things but this
was dumb
excuse me mr. president you
know I'm
gonna ask you a dingbat
question that
you've never heard before do
you think
Chinese food is racist because
it's you
know it's it comes from China
that's our
question and Trump equally does
the dumb
shit and cartels and you work
right here
at the White House with direct
access to
you and your team okay yeah
let's let us
back up for a second and remind
ourselves what happened during
the Bush
administration when George Bush
was in
office they had some gay model
who was
one of these beefy gay guys oh
yeah it
was one of the more sing with a
midnight
tour guys posing is some sort of
reporter some phony baloney
reporter
asking this sort of stupid
question
pandering to the president and
he was
planted there and given
credentials to
come in and do it he was
immediately
busted by everybody spent a lot
of time
trying to get credit
and this is the same sort of
thing this
is a bad idea and it's
extremely stupid
Oh a inch who's doing a good
job of
keeping you know keeping a good
a good
pace up for bringing out good
news
stories and they have some good
people
there they should be ashamed of
themselves for taking part in
this oh
absolutely
they went down a notch in my
opinion two
notches to at least two but
there's
other stuff you know NBC and
it's really
only was it three companies who
own all
of our television news Comcast
Disney
and Viacom and Viacom right
that's
really it so now that well
since we're
on this sort of thing about the
Chinese
influence let's listen to Steve
bannon's
podcast where he's played on
KABC and/or
at WABC in new york city he's
he's been
doing I've been listening to
this show
for I think since it started
and I
suppose they have professional
engineers
in the control room no no it's
the it's
I have actually sent a message
to him
although I don't have his email
so I
just like DM done Twitter I
said my god
have someone call me I know
what's going
wrong it sucks it's horrible
and you
must must fix this no not no
answer this
is idiot so it it's horrible
well they
did bring out I got two clips
from hit
one of his project is some
woman named
Maura who's an expert on all
kinds of
things and she comes in on the
phone way
over modulated by compressed it
myself
tried to fix it no it's useless
I tried
I tried I tried the level of
the there's
history and belief zero put
your power
yeah now that's the second clip
the
second clip has a piece of
information
that is quite interesting but
let's play
the first clip and the funny
thing is
with any Steve man and
interview it is
no I'd say seven eight
Bannen yes yammering we're
using all
kinds of military code and
terms he's a
Navy man so I'll give him that
but he
loves the whole war setting
it's there
isn't a podcast war room war
room
pandemic Steven K Ovid Report
now he's
changed the co vid report damn
alright
so here we go so listen here's
the thing
is today
you've seen this ratcheting of
the
Chinese counters party
propaganda from
their state media Mike Pompeo a
couple
weeks ago actually put out a
proclamation that the state
media was
going to have to essentially be
like a
foreign mission they weren't
really
media they were more like an
arm of the
Chinese government then you've
seen
there was an official in the
Chinese
government last week that
actually
accused the United States
military of
being of having something to do
with
this virus they called over the
ambassador from China to the
United
States to the State Department
you know
read him the riot act we have
not had a
formal response I don't think
today but
there's now a leak of this
phone call
where the Chinese Foreign
Minister an
individual I know not a
particularly
pleasant fellow called Mike
Pompeo and
they leaked it immediately to
the
chinese state media and he
according to
chinese state media really laid
it down
on on secretary Pompeo
about they were tired of being
smeared
by the United States government
and then
later today we just found out
that they
have essentially kicked out the
American
national reporters on China and
non
Chinese nationals I think of
the wall
street journal in The New York
Times and
also I think voice of Voice of
America
so you've been at this a long
time
particularly at freedom of the
press and
the ability to get information
into
China can you kind of
contextualize this
for the audience is really
surprised to
me at all I did many years
working for
Radio Free ages tibet service
and that
is most difficult part of china
to get
information in and out of
Western China
Qin Qiong in Tibet under
permanent
lockdown at all time and I
think it is
very important for your
listeners to use
this as an opportunity to
examine
Shinhwa Global Times China
Daily I mean
we see them on news boxes in
every
single corner of New York City
and
Xinhua which is a propaganda
ring of the
Chinese Communist Party is not a
legitimate news organization it
has been
spreading Chinese communist
propaganda
for decades but it has been
normalized
and integrated into our society
oh yeah
you know there's some news
about the
journalists being kicked out of
China
the US journalists New York
Times
Washington Post Wall Street
Journal oh
okay well it's in retaliation
because we
kicked out I think five or six
journalists from Chinese media
quote-unquote media companies
here first
never happens that these were
Chinese
spies that we kicked out and we
wouldn't
put surprises we're not at the
Washington Post Wall Street
Journal the
New York Times no spooks there
so this
is the part though that got me
this
little tidbit that she puts I
didn't
know this because I don't live
in New
York and but there's a little
thing that
Bannon pointed out and then as
soon as
she confirmed it and they
talked about
it I thought this is absolutely
the
worst case in Suva it's not
like he's
not even native advertising
listen to
clip doing you see what I'm
talking
about every everywhere I go I
see people
now parroting propaganda from
the CCP
when they should be supporting
the
president supporting Governor
Cuomo this
is bipartisan this has nothing
to do
with picking fights another
side we have
to come together in the midst
of this
humanitarian crisis so I think
it's very
dangerous when I see mainstream
media
siding with the Chinese
Communist Party
and and I but I'm not don't
think it's
surprising at all but
incredibly if I'm
wrong in New York City I think
if you
get a paper edition of the New
York
Times delivered on Wednesdays
isn't the
China Daily and insert into the
New York
Times I think yes four years
and that's
why they're there coverage you
survive
you do you know pounding this
Russian
cat thing this rest of us
as responsible for the ills
about
society but they always take a
light
touch with China because
they're taking
ad dollars from from the Chinese
Communist Party every week and
so I
suppose that would influence
your
coverage wouldn't it it's not
just ad
dollars John explained the
editorial
insert process and business
well the
editor quelled it is ad dollars
because
those are considered
advertisements but
they're disguised as disguises
all kinds
of things I mean you have the
special
report is a classic Oh special
report
and it'll be a special report
on some
part in many cases nowadays
just like it
be a special report on some
part of
China right an incident is you
read
about the in the special report
which
looks like editorial but it's
not as
paid but and paid for and it's
usually
written with some you know some
of
advertising guys oversight and
there'll
be you know they have all kinds
of
little subtle propaganda within
it but
this idea of taking the entire
ins to
insert an entire thing an entire
newspaper inside your newspaper
this is
expensive it's a lot of money
and if
you're and you're the
advertiser of your
China Communist Party dropping
their
China Daily inside the New York
Times on
Wednesdays for home delivery
you are
paying a lot of money and and
the
coverage will reflect that I
don't care
what anybody thinks I've talked
to
people about this you talk to
two people
you talk to the higher-ups in
the New
York Times structure oh no that
would
never happen we have a church
and state
the church is one thing in the
state's a
dollar they don't mix and then
you talk
to the reporters get yourself a
pat on
the back for that voice that's
a new one
to the show I like that guy
that guy's
cool that's the that's the New
York
Times editorial this a little
bit so
then you have the reporter on
the street
by the way did you say Chinese
wall
no I said churches they Chinese
thanks
Charles church and state is the
thing
they do but it's the thing they
say they
never say Chinese wall and and
the
reporters all say will tell you
that and
I've written in big magazines
that you
know what's going on you say
well you
know these guys advertise a lot
we're
not gonna say dude this report
because
I'll probably get fired or you
know
whatever of course and then you
talk to
the New York Times editorial
guys about
to say yeah these guys won't
write about
that because they say they get
far -
never gonna happen
we wouldn't do that and they do
it's
it's a joke yeah it's a joke
that
they're putting the China Daily
in the
newspaper and it's not affecting
coverage it's totally affecting
coverage
[Music]
I'm so disappointed in just the
media
approach who is running the
White House
communications who's in charge
of the
media and getting stuff out
some new
woman there I think I mean so I
I think
it's very it is is Trump
exactly yeah
I'm sure he's the way get one
American
news get that cute girl over it
she was
cute get the cute girl and put
her in
the bag one oh yeah I was the
cute not
the blonde no no I don't like
her she'd
I don't I think she's uh sorry
you don't
like Camille Erin no I don't I
don't
like her you can't even see her
but you
can tell it but just the way
she's like
oh I mean it's setup you man if
you're a
cub reporter for one American
news
you're gonna do this without
without
some preamble with the
administration I
don't think so or maybe they
know that
Trump loves that I don't know
but very
appropriate to have the first
lady say
something comforting and I I'm
a fan of
Melania they you know as a
first lady
and then they put her in a
hallway with
an echo and it sounds like
she's in the
the Adams family house it kind
of looks
that way in the back you know
just did
it at him too
and her accent comes in and
she's
sitting really sweet things but
it sucks
balls today I want to speak
with you
about coronavirus and what it
means for
you and your family
yes Gomez we will make crazy
love later
well changes need to be made
now this is
not how we will live forever our
children will return to school
people
will return to work we will
gather at
the places of worship concerts
and
sporting events again it's like
Zsa Zsa
Gabor in her mansion you know
it's just
it's so wrong and I feel bad
for her she
gets screwed every time with
this deal I
urge you to stay connected to
family and
loved ones through the video
chats phone
calls social media and other
safe
technologists please be sure to
follow
CDC guidelines which can be
found at
coronavirus gov or cdc.gov
along with
other information and resources
it's
also kind of like one of those
in-flight
videos you know where the
instead of the
you know the the stewardess
they have a
little video that shows you how
to
buckle your seatbelt yeah you
put this
at the metal tip in - and
remember when
many of us apart we are all in
this
together so just it's bad Trump
came
from it he has enough show
business
chops yeah he was knighted he
bring a
sound guy in there that knows
what he's
doing I don't think he was
involved in
this that well here's the eye
so this
will not last forever know that
did you
know what this sound is so sad
yeah you
can't you can't even use it I
have I
have another candidate tell I so
candidate yeah this one is
scary okay
sorry it's very scary now talk
about
sound quality is horrible it's
like a
Skype warble it's very it's
very scary
hmm
no I think I think this is
still I don't
believe in rules I think that's
still
the toe that's clean as a
whistle yeah
that's still the best one my
South wall
just one scary except if you
want to
hear where that attic
well will you give what were we
talking
about you want to finish you
pointed
discussion because I have one
more go go
for go for what do I tell you
what we
can continue this yes what I
want to
talk about that we continue it
right
after what you're gonna do I
want to
talk about about how these
idiots have
this because they're taking
this so
seriously have the Hollywood
has decided
to start doing their
programming from
home and we'll talk about that
right
after I thank you for your
courage and
your teas and say in the
morning to you
the man who put both seasoned
Cuomo
versus Cuomo John C double rags
and the
morning meal mr. Adam Korean or
something everybody
hello producers and hello
trolls it's
got a troll count right now we
have whoa
almost 2000 1989 trolls in the
troll
room whoo-hoo that is a lot
that is yeah
that's great it's no agenda
stream calm
which has been on fire this
past week of
course people are home fire
it's on fire
I think people are seeing that
the
social media networks are just
either
they're blocking information or
you know
the algos are kicking in and so
people
are going to no agenda social
calm
they're using that that
checking in to
no agenda stream calm which is
by the
way where you can get an invite
for no
agenda social and it's great
where I do
my blitzes of you do yours yet
in the
newsletter once a week you do
your
blitzes of material right there
no
agenda social calm them yes and
then
again it's fun to joining with
the
trolls because this is almost
2,000 of
them right now go take a look
at no
agenda stream dot-com for the
artwork we
say a big in the morning to
Mountain Jay
lady mountain Jay who brought
us the
most appropriate piece of
artwork for
that particular show at that
particular
moment
the time continuum the no
agenda sanity
kit and I just I thought it was
spectacular that I think we
looked at
everything and this was it
within a
minute or two wasn't it well I
had
wizard a bit there was a
discussion I
like there's a sanity kid I
liked a
couple of things I liked the
what did I
like him looking at or I liked
the one I
liked was Riley's quinine
tipped arrow
yes
which of course was just
mocking you
that's okay I had no problem
with it but
we thought it would be so
obscure but it
was a little bit yes it was a
very
obscure it was a bit much I
used the
what I liked a lot is the the
sorry were
oh sorry we're closed and that
was used
in the newsletter and I'm
innocent
candidate for today's show okay
excellent but yes it was the
the no
agenda sanity kit which was
used twice
very rarely this has been
theirs Barrett
very few pieces that have been
reused
for both the beginning of the
show the
stream and then again the show
itself
and this is because the artist
wisely
made a second copy without the
show
number yes very smart very very
smart if
you're doing something for the
pre
stream do one without the
episode number
because that's kind of a
non-starter for
us typically there's always
exceptions
to the rule I did receive a
nice email
from the art producer lady
mountain Jay
she says after almost three
years of
douchebaggery I finally started
chipping
in with monthly donations in
May of 2019
replacing my audible payment
excellent
then as an art producer in
October 29 I
receive enormous value from
everyone's
work on No Agenda I'm very
happy to
provide some valid value in
return a
formal deed douching would be
very much
appreciated and of course we'll
do that
you've been deduced and no
agenda art
generator calm is where you can
find all
of the artwork that is
submitted and you
can submit some yourself it's
it's like
a while it's like a contest
it's just
like a contest and thank you
once again
then we have people who support
the show
on our value for value system
since we
obviously can't be taking
Chinese money
we can't be taking any
corporate money
this conversation would never
take place
in any in any even on a podcast
with
advertisers it would not happen
we get
cancelled we get de platform
we'd be
gone so we rely on our executive
producers associate executive
producers
and other financial producers
of the
program and we're going to
thank some of
them right now for this episode
1227 and
we actually have two big donors
nice.i
big insta night's search room
one who's
already at night so at 10:33
from Lindon
Utah he says 33 is a nice
number to have
in there the No Agenda show is
the
antidote for the fear virus the
little-known site effects being
laughter
perspective and critical
thinking
horrible The Ides of March
indeed my dad
passed and sister to brain
cancer
earlier this month that's not
good my
daughter shares my birthday
51st on st.
Patrick's Day like on the list
so we got
matching four leaf clover
tattoos first
had two for each of us
symbolizing luck
hope and love grateful for you
two and
the No Agenda show shortens
thank you
very much sir Truman yeah we
got some
longer notes I'd noticed and
and in
general have you noticed that
the emails
are long that people are
sending us
outside of donations some of
them are
getting very lengthy yes and
they reach
some require some reading but
we have
like coming up in this segment
we'll
have a very long note from our
the day
for those photographer yes but
that's a
very good note it's funny I
said one of
the notes we always read
because it's a
it's always enter its
Ejim occasional indeed but
meanwhile we
have Michelle Winton in Bartlet
Tennessee who came in with
$1,000 even
well and she says I will try my
best and
this is long note but fine to
keep the
length into rocking-horse
winter rather
than swans way feel free to
leave out as
much as you want but
smoking-hot husband
Todd hit me in the mouth about
six years
ago I was I refused to listen
until
about five years ago it took a
year yeah
well so hang in there mouth
hitters it
might get through eventually
Powell titters I sporadically
contributed and donate until
2018
nothing you did nothing you did
life
just got incredibly hard my dad
died and
I told you about it in a drunken
late-night donation my last one
as a
matter of fact until now in
writing it
looks like a bad country song
in reality
I kept a man who is my hero
the dogs who loved me the son
who is a
damn smart kid and the roof
over my head
and didn't slide off the
barstool once
so here we are the reversed
cover this
country song yes well I have a
very
covered as much as one does and
now
trying to now my amazing
husband is
harassing me daily to become a
dame okay
so I put him off for a few
months
because I honestly didn't know
what to
say but I'll try she hasn't
even started
yet
I like you I think you've
actually
shrunk my amygdala you provide
a bastion
of sanity that is scarcely
Latin that is
sorely lacking in the world at
large
especially today as they work
from home
waiting to see the next big
story that I
promptly deakins deconstruct to
quote

benefits

report from Saudi Arabia sorry
in
advance for the length the
kingdom is
doing pretty well and as of
today has
under 400 cases with 16
recoveries and
no deaths international flights
were
canceled last week so I'm stuck
away
from my Dame's for the time
being but
they also cancelled domestic
flights
buses and long-haul taxis on
Saturday
the country is mostly shut down
with
governmental pleas to stay home
and not
go out unless absolutely
necessary
restaurants are only takeout or
drive-through and most
non-essential
retail services are closed
grocery
shelves are well stocked though
and
there's no interruption of food
supplies
that I can tell the local
hygiene
regimen tends to use an
on-suite spray
hose so there's no mad scrub on
quote
John Wayne paper which is what
it's
called because it's rough tough
and
don't take shit off anyone
Santa I
hadn't heard that one sanitary
wipes and
hand sanitizer are hard to find
though
and here there's no using
Tito's as a
substitutes and since alcohol is
verboten and hypothetically if
it did
exist would be too precious for
topical
application of course dr.
Bronner is
always on call we act expats
typically live on compounds
that are
suitable to our Western style
of life
mine has an international mix of
residents one whom apparently
had the
bug but they and their family
were
confronted confined to their
villa and
have since recovered but nobody
wants to
hang out with them now how very
sad all
of the compound services
restaurant gym
pool coffee shop spa hair salon
etc are
closed we're encouraged to
socially
distance ourselves but you do
see
residents out for strolls and
jogs and
occasionally congregating in
small
groups
my company is complying with the
kingdom's guidance for a 14 day
minimum
work from home although my
position
still has me at the office that
said I'm
getting a lot more work done
than normal
since the normal stream of
supplicants
has dwindled off to a mere
trickle in
all of this my amygdala remains
strong
clean and right-sized
thanks to the twice weekly
refreshing
lava lavage of truth and sanity
from my
old friend the best podcast in
the
universe not only can I
maintain an
unnatural serenity amidst the
chaos but
I've clear cows I think is the
word but
I have clear unpacks
perspective that I
used to influence those with
whom I
interact this show and the media
construction it provides is
truly more
important now than at any time
in its
history I hope you guys
understand the
impact you're making without
exaggeration you are probably
saving
lives by interrupting the panic
chain
finally I humbly request the
honor of an
upgrade as I unwittingly passed
the
threshold for dukedom earlier
this year
accounting attached request
title change
to serve fuga Zotoh Duke of
America's
heartland and the Arabian
Peninsula I
might as well snaffle up the
rest of
this place while I'm stuck here
with no
way to get home
one jingle request please Pelle
the
anthem of our No Agenda tribe
at the
close of the broadcast day I
think we
could all benefit from this
unifying
triumphant and optimistic tones
apologize for the verbosity so
he has a
title upgrade which I don't
think was
reflected on my sheet today
well hmm
Thank You Duke Duke Dave I was
I was
tart when I was in Dubai and
there was a
guy that British guy was
showing me the
ropes about everything and he
probably I
don't know I did what he did
for a
really did for a living but he
he lived
in one of these compounds in
Saudi
Arabia and generally speaking
these
compounds are there like they're
verboten to the Saudis Bobby
can live in
one mm-hmm I said well what you
said is
that is because of some legal
thing the
Saudis can't no no no he said
we don't
allow Saudis in these things
because
what the classic Saudi that's
actually
Saudi Arabia Saudi this you
never really
been out of the country all
they do is
stand by the pool and all the
girls in
the bathing suits right and
it's very
disturbing to the women no
kidding yeah
so I'm sure food risotto has
the same
story
Timothy Perez is next on the
list he's
in he's also overseas with 133
dollars
or I'm sorry 333 dollars
flatout ITM John and and is my
first
donation d douche me douche I
was hit in
the mouth by a friend in April
of 2018 I
listened off and on for about
six month
and I was hit with a heavy
travel
schedule for work I was looking
to find
ways to fill time on some
long-haul
flights and became permanently
hooked
I've learned a lot from your
podcast and
have benefited greatly from the
shrinkage of the amygdala
however the
recent hysteria over the corona
virus is
threatening to reenlarge it to
a degree
one of my biggest takeaways is
that
residual jobs karma is
dangerous when I
first started listening to your
podcast
I was working with my company
to secure
a large multi-million dollar
contract
overseas if we won I would have
a key
position on that contract in a
nice race
as the months went by and I
began
listening more often I thought
about
don't
but I never did however I
thought let's
test this job's karma thing
I'll donate
if we win will we did win in
June 2019 I
was given a position I wanted
and the
race I was looking for but I
didn't
donate uh-oh
as the first few months after
winning
went by that job became almost
unbearable and I was miserable
however reserves jewelled jobs
karma
came to the rescue again
and in January 20 I moved to
another job
given another raise and a cash
bonus but
I still haven't donated while I
was late
ly and greatly enjoying this new
contract contract it ends in a
few
months and we are fighting to
get it
renewed long term so we'll sit
on my ass
no further it is time to donate
and
backdate to all those times I
would have
done it before
I need specific jobs karma
directed
toward me and securing this
contract
long term please people do not
rely on
residual jobs karma you do not
know what
you're going to get no donate
today
please give me an Obama you
might die
that's true Tuesday hand
followed by
little girl yeah also the
strongest jobs
karma you got keep up the good
work Tim
you might die jobs jobs and
jobs that's
can't get any stronger than a
goat job
Karma and that's that's about
the max
wonder what he does

your favorite pod catch your
app I have
low production but talk about
how I keep
it skinny on the road through a
low carb
whole food Kido way of eating go
podcasting as a feeder driver
for big
brown we have had multiple
message about
how UPS is deemed essential for
the
country and our work schedules
will
continue as normal
I would suggest anyone who
needs some
work to check it out although
our hiring
process usually takes about a
month or
so I understand Kroger Walmart
and other
food suppliers are hiring as
well the
decrease in traffic around Reno
has been
calming the closing of the ski
resorts
is troubling not so much for the
corporate owned places but the
smaller
locally owned spots in Tahoe
that just
received the best snow of the
season
that will not get the
spring-break rush
that should be going on right
now is
problem there are also
thousands of
seasonal employees who are
expecting to
work through April at least and
I don't
forget the j-1 visa employees
who comb
over from the southern
hemisphere to
fill the gaps meanwhile instead
of going
out to buy more guns and ammo I
will
donate this week then excellent
choice
if I lived in LA during the
riots worked
for the American Airlines
during 9/11
had my own bankruptcy and
foreclosures
in 2009 well this one will work
itself
out as well
please credit this donation to
my smokin
hot keeper Asuka she works at
the Tesla
Giga factory just outside of
Reno but
has been telecommuting this
week before
the pandemic there were
concerns over
whether Panasonic will be able
to
fulfill Tesla's battery needs
for the
model 3 yes because basically
Tesla
repackages Panasonic's batteries
especially since the culture
clash of
the American and Japanese worth
ethic
has caused some issues with
production
hmm I say let's I think to be
honest
about it I think it's their
repackaging
Panasonic batteries which are
made in
China for Panasonic there you go
I could be wrong basically the
unite
doubt it sorry the one
basically the
American attitude is that's
good enough
and why you got to keep looking
over my
shoulder well the Japanese
technicians
training them just want the job
done
correctly so they don't have to
fix
problems and can go back home
to their
families in Japan the 12 hour
work days
are kind of tough too so it
looks like
they will slow down as well as
the
Fremont plant is suspending
operations
man we got to stop this crap
John maybe
sometime you can talk about the
new me
venture of GM and Toyota that
failed in
the 80s for the same reasons
This
American Life has a pretty good
rundown
of it titled a new me and you
um I I
make I make too much to get a
bailout
check but because I have no
depth size
my mortgage I'm pretty well
prepared to
weather the storm so donate if
you can
support local businesses where
you can
and keep ordering online
because we are
delivering how about a trains
good
planes bad and a good old
clippity-clop
thanks for your courage to
rajole and
that he asks for a karma as
well in that
or is it just those two yeah no
see it
Oh

associate executive producer
$250 in I
sent you this happy birthday
donation
too long and I have gone without
donating and an old friend
finally paid
me back for some money in from
2010 and

there's send to the best
podcast in the
universe I would like 333
dollars to go
to the podcast or license
signed by Adam

to be disarmed long it's a
process it's
impossible didn't used to be
this this
remains to be a normal donation
this
remains to be a normal the
remains of
the month the remains okay I
would like
to call a Gregory Hayes as a
douchebag I
recently learned he's a
listener and
he's never donated health and
wealth or
karma please also the same for

pronunciation he alright I'm not
offended does he become it's
also in
blue here on the list I don't

Shostak back around show 60
sorry go
somewhere early on when you've
got karma
pre goat was heavy under
rotation I got
a cat and named him karma so
every time
I heard the jingle I'd think
yes I do
you've got karma get it and I'd
smile
last month after going to a
doctor's
appointment I came home and
discovered
my dog had killed my cat holy
crap
that's his dogs that good dogs
will pack
up which is a problem when you
get a lot
of dogs I like to donate to his
memory
and only request one jingle the
original
you've got karma because you'll
always
be live in my heart and in the
best
podcast in the universe
according to the
moola report all right well
we're sorry
that karma has gone but there
you go
you've still got it
you've got karma favorite
number two
three four five six Christopher
Baylor
from Grafton Wisconsin I feared
my
donation wasn't going to make
it in time
it's 1:30 here in the great
state of
Wisconsin but I think I'm saved
by John
being two hours behind acts I
think it
came in late I'm not sure no I
think it
came in just just otherwise you
wouldn't
be here at all because I was
gonna skip
it but I think I'm saved by
John me too
if not then Thursday show is
fine I'm
going to apologize now for war
and peace
but it's important to me and
for others
to hear it might save their
kid's life
so we will read this of course
this is
the value that we expect from
our
executive and associate
executive
producers I've never donated
this level
because well you know I'm cheap
I
normally donate six seven eight
nine $67
89 cents around family
birthdays I know
John loves his number so I try
to keep
it the same anyways a year ago
I asked
for some human resource karma my
daughter was doing about two
weeks and
there were some signs of
possible health
issues but we wouldn't know
until she
was born I decided I should
shoot for a
little human resource
karmen to make sure everything
was a-ok
it was a scary time for us four
days
later on a show day a Sunday my
wife
went into labor and gave birth
to our
third child Anya anj Anya she
was and is
perfectly healthy and the most
amazing
little girl a guy could ask for
no her big brothers are amazing
and love
the D Duchenne clip they also
love
calling people douchebags yes
get him
going early working on that of
course I
tweeted a picture when Anya was
born and
you both had kind words thank
you but
just as amazing so did other
producers
No Agenda producers are more
than a
tribe we are family and
seriously people
karma works on dick Ovid 19 I'm
just
finishing Thursday show and it
hit me
what Adam said that others were
sending
him my oldest son and daughter
had this
in December January my daughter
was not
as memorable since she couldn't
tell us
how she felt was getting teeth
and also
had an ear infection however
they both
had a crazy high fever and this
odd
cough that would not go away my
son was
out of school for weeks after
Christmas
break several other kids at his
school
had it as well
his doctor chalked it up to a
quote
virus and said let it run its
course he
kept telling us he felt fine he
really
seemed fine maybe running about
at 80%
but as a six-year-old he was
still
bouncing off the walls now my
other son
did not get it and my wife may
have had
it but far less drastic the
kicker here
is my mom in her 70s and
mother-in-law
in her 60s saw him several
times since
they helped watch him while we
were at
work neither of them got sick
now
obviously I cannot prove it was
Kovac 19
but it sure seems like the
symptoms I
hope all this passes quickly
and people
can get on with their lives my
wife and
I are stuck at home working
from home
and our kids are here as well
with no
real end in sight and getting
back to
normal would be just great
thank you
both for all the work in this
crazy time
that you do can I get a little
Karma for
myself but also sprinkle it on

dark sand Ark ready to hit play
the
jingle no sure know that I'm
like I mean
that jingle I'm sorry I'm
setting stuff
up here it's my opportunity I
missed my
Albertine before you could even
play the
squirrel mail jingle boom from
Hannity
ITM Jen says longtime listener
first-time donor please d
douche me boom
hardly know going OGG is how I
discovered your show I hope
this finds
you well a decade ago I carried
a Sony
Ericsson feature phone with is
Ana's
hoon the Zune was dining
dynamite it was
good by the way I only drew
what it was
great the zoom it was a great
device
it had a nice sound but it was
it was
the least ii was like the loser
device
of podcasting that's for sure
yes well there's that so I only
jumped a
smartphone bandwagon when
Windows Phone
hit the scene in 2012 actually
came out
in 20 2007
the years went by and
downloading the
podcast and mp3's gave way to
streaming
youtube and spotify premium by
2005 i
was working for a company that
supplied
company iphones no doubt is
slackin
fication majors except we still
use
email i really like to give him
my
windows phone and added app
diversity
only made my hedonistic habits
worse by
now as mandated to carry a
wretched the
wretched thing until one day i
spotted a
colleague carrying an old nokia
phone i
asked her about it and she said
it for
$2 monthly fee our company's
carrier
offered a second SIM card tied
to the
same phone number incoming
calls and
texts who then be received by
the two
phones
I could be dialed or sent from
either
phone I tried it myself I
strongly
encourage any listeners who are
considering the OTG lifestyle
but are
electing are simply unable to
take the
plunge to check out their
carrier about
this service it's commonly
known as twin
SIM hmm however two things to
be aware
of one if your OTG phone uses
mini sim
make sure to ask for the old
micro SIM
stock nano SIM chips don't
always line
up with the men's sim contacts
on the
phone even with the appropriate
plastic
shell in tact second the twin
sim
lifestyle is a gateway drug to
full OTG
living I should know as I
eventually
asked the company to take their
iPhone
back which they allowed now
it's just me
and my ever-growing collection
of
discarded candy bars that my
family
donates to me so going that far
I
decided to cancel my Spotify
subscription and buy a new
complimentary
Zune
I vowed to buy music instead of
renting
it if it's worth listening to
it's worth
owning people I also recent
subscribers
the podcast and I listened to
but was
aghast to find that one Jhansi
Dvorak
was no longer on to it John
cynical take
was the only reason I listened
to that
show it worried me that he may
have
retired I looked him up on the
book of
knowledge and found that he's
been laid
off and disgraced he was
hosting a
finance show and Apple
analysis show both of which
sounded
pretty dull nailed it
still I gave them both shows a
chance
and whilst the first was a bit
too
inside baseball the latter was
also
inside baseball but in a way I
wanted to
get in on it the amount of the
truth I
got in assuming that's this
show the
amount of enthusiasm and humor
the two
of you exhibited was infectious
and I
was very blown away by your
lengthy
three-hour bi-weekly out but
I've never
seen such a long-form
production before
which makes your business model
all the
more impressive Adam I was not
familiar
with but his excitable and
lively
demeanor it was Annie as a
perfect foil
to John's deadpan style I'm
done she's
calling me the straight man the
two of
you worked very well together
but if the
bickering can become slightly
uncomfortable at times it's not
fun to
hear mommy daddy's fighting
referred out
before yeah blah blah blah we
don't care
yeah but it's price worth
paying for in
such a great unrehearsed show
that's the
point
it's unrehearsed exactly okay
so I will
no continues and I'm going to
stop and
read any requests for jingles I
hope
this held you've announced a
health
karma and I'd like to request a
big
healthcare for mom and pop
aside from
that fair bit of chronic pain
that our
wonderful Norwegian health care
system
has been unable are
uninterested in
helping either of them with
even though
before the coming flu outbreak
and they
are quite vulnerable to the
virus so
give them a healthcare will be
good with
this new off and one more thing
after
the after the Karma tell you
what it is
you've got Karma
March 31st first first put him
on the
birthday list so give a
birthday call
yeah you could have done that
okay I
couldn't not done it well yeah
but I
could have I could have done
this during
I did believe me if you say
it's a wall
of text
okay and when is his birthday
the 31st
of March okay that's on there
and
actually we have one more
because it's
Michelle Cartmell 181 dollars
however
this donation was two hundred
and
seventy one dollars and fifty
nine cents
canden avian ah it was our 16th
wet so
that means that because it's a
dollar at
will bump you up to the
associate
executive producer level no
problem
it was our 16th wedding
anniversary on
March 20th instead of waiting
until June
to donate for his birthday I
figured for
the show sake I would bump up my
donation time to now instead we
could
sure you some anniversary karma
Adriel
came down with some type of food
poisoning so not only we were
stuck
inside from kovat 19 but also
because he
quite literally could not move
from the
couch amazing timing I must say
happy
Anniversary to the best husband
in the
universe this donation also
officially
brings him to knighthood this
will be a
surprise to him so please place
his
knighthood in abeyance until he
chooses
a knight name thank you Adam
John for
the twice-weekly sanity
absolutely what
a beautiful gesture thank you
so much
Michelle congratulations you've
got
karma to you and Adrian
excellent I know
it's a special time so these
longer
notes are nice try to keep them
short
people yeah yeah a little short
I mean
the dealers will read them but
you know
so yes we will be doing another
eight
hour show today so we get
everything I
have two benches something I
cannot
close the segment or do you
want to do
before we do that
ah let's do it what cuz it's
about this
segment we had an earlier one
where he
had the two guys with the pew
pew it was
like a coincidence yeah there's
one
there's one that's in the
second half
where we have a coincidence
with the two
exact same donations and exact
same
requests mm-hmm
$433 I just want to mention
this random
number thing they don't know
each other
they're both exactly the same
donation
the same requests and they're
both from
Texas from different parts of
Texas nice
I just was like and they came
in bang
bang was like what this is crazy
by request I will give Michelle
and a
drill thus was enough karma
actually
goat karma and an lgy for their
anniversary
[Music]
and thank you all of our
executive and
associate executive producers
for
supporting the show this is
exactly what
we needed because it's gonna
get tough
in in well hopefully I'm still
looking
at April 6 I'm very very I feel
very
good about that based upon what
we're
seeing today and how people are
moving
away from death and destruction
into
just blaming orange man bad so
they must
know something otherwise they're
complete idiots and will be
thanking
more people in the second half
please
remember us for of course
another show
which we'll do on Thursday just
go to
Vollrath org slash and then you
know
what to ask for if it ever does
get
approved it may save lives our
formula
is this we go out we hit people
in the
mouth
sorry it's very scary
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
coronavirus the hard food
doesn't kill
you the media pen cool now do
whatever
the government tells you to do
I haven't yes I love that it
still
doesn't know what I want to
read from a
Bay Area cop ah yes we got a
couple of
similar notes but this is a
good one
I've been at time since I've
email you
guys has been a time this show
is
absolutely awesome by the way
and I'm
propagating the formula in
overdrive due
to the corona madness going on
I up my
donation to knife $49.99 a
month and
hope to get my knighthood soon
if you
guys use any of this keep me
anonymous I
am a cop and a medium sized Bay
Area
Agency
I like the way they use agency
for the
police department nowadays most
of all
of the police departments have
been put
on some sort of modified
enforcement of
directions meaning at this time
no one
is getting stopped for traffic
violations or drunk driving if
you can
find them if you can find a
more typical
dealings with transients have
been put
to a stop as we usually go out
and find
the ones that are have warrants
or
possessing drugs etc and then
take care
of them our departments have
decided
they don't want us catching
spreading
the virus around so many cops
are
working so many cops are
working what I
would call a holding pattern
only
responding to emergency type
calls that
being said if we can handle
things over
the phone we will but if it
involves
ascending needing a cop to
physically
show up we will unless
something changes
we've had absolutely no
direction from
the upper heads about enforcing
any kind
of stay at home order frankly
there are
too many people walking around
going to
work getting their food and
going about
their business frankly because
all you
have to do is just say you're
going to
the store frankly so the cops
aren't
gonna stop you frankly many
cops are
just irritated that the day's
offer
being canceled and that we have
to wipe
ourselves and the insides of
our cars
with numerous chemicals before
and after
our shifts which seems
ludicrous if you
ask me
a lot of us are anticipating
the at home
staying trend continuing a
couples are
going to start boozing and
beefing as
the American Way as is the
American Way
we were told us if we're still
to stay
home out definitely report if
something
interesting comes along now I
will
mention this Mimi took a friend
to the
airport and sup in debt she's
up in
Washington but she's reporting
from
Washington about all the
craziness up
there because of the maniac
governor jay
Inslee who is you know would
all in on
global warming and he's thinks
that he
should put borders between the
counties
of his state and they were even
thinking
about stopping traffic from
Oregon to
Washington she made a record
time drive
to the airport there's no
traffic and so
and so that means they're not
enforcing
the speeding laws which are
Washington
State for anyone who doesn't
know this
have you ever traveled up there
should
know that it's a one giant
spill trap
speed trap and so she was just
doing 70
and she says she got back from
the
airport in two hours flat go
Mimi as
opposed to three and a half
which it
normally takes a normal traffic
and it's
just the dream come true for
people who
have to go someplace so I've
received
similar emails from
Philadelphia from
Illinois also we have a lot of
police
officers who listen to the show
I can
imagine it's a lot more
exciting on the
stakeouts
to listen to us but same thing
cleaning
don't really you know if you
can avoid
interacting with the public
which is
exactly the opposite of what
the police
do you know please don't arrest
you know
they're exactly holding pattern
they're
really not gonna do anything
they're not
gonna go after anything small
and it's
so bad in Baltimore we talked
about on
the last show but now I got the
clip
mayor Jack Young is I mean it's
like
where were you when the crime
and the
killings started years ago
mayor Jack
thank you all for your hard
work and
dedication to the people of
Baltimore
I've also asked Commissioner
Harrison to
join us today to provide a
public safety
update before we hear from the
commissioner
I want to reiterate
how completely unacceptable the
level of
violence is we have seen
recently we
will not stand for mass
shootings and
the increase in crime we will
not stand
for this level of violence and
I've
instructed Commissioner
Harrison to do
everything in his power to
combat this
crime we're dealing with the
Cobra virus
and those of you who want to
continue
it's the Cova virus to shoot
and kill
people in this city we're not
going to
tolerate it it's okay if we
don't have
the Cova virus but today no
shooting and
killing people you who want to
continue
to shoot and kill people in
this city
we're not going to tolerate it
we're gonna come after you and
we're
gonna get you we can not clog
about
hospitals with their bids with
people
who are being shot senselessly
because
we're gonna need those videos
for people
who might be infected with the
Cova
virus coronavirus and it could
be your
mother your grandmother oh you
wanted
your relatives so take that in
consideration and put down the
guns yeah
that'll do it mayor that'll do
it
that'll tell him that guy
should be
recalled immediately he's
horrible that
is that is just its head shaker
real
head shaker I want to mention
something
else which the Jay and Nick I
have been
sneaking out to go play
basketball or to
walk the dog and one of the
things they
see there's a lot of people out
it's not
like him normal it's just
abnormally
small amount of people but the
people
are and they commented on this
and they
keep and I've talked to me
about it
she's noticing the same thing
that
everybody that's out floating
around are
so happy should they set they
just seem
happy not my thinking is
they're happy
that they're out not at work oh
okay I'm
thinking this because himand I
hate my
job and I think a lot of people
just
hate their job and they're just
happy to
be away from it but the me me
believes
is they're happy because
there's no
traffic and you there's no
swarms of
people it's just a minor thing
and it's
but there seems to be a
happiness going
on that's really unaccounted
for yeah I
don't see that I see quite the
opposite
people are starting to go
stir-crazy
there's not enough information
they're
very
they are insanely insanely
scrolling
through social media which is
the
ultimate way to get sick from
something
else besides the Rona it's
really not
healthy and and of course we're
around
young people who all are all
out of work
every single one of them and
you know
and then you know they they
hope they'll
go back to work maybe April 3rd
maybe
April 6 hey but that jet person
came
from overseas on vacation she
wasn't
it's just there's not enough
information
I do not get this happiness
vibe at all
we'd go out we're not on
lockdown
you know scour in place but you
know we
go out in the USA but Texas at
that app
it closed the state no no way
all the
restaurants are running
everything's
fine the restaurants are all
doing
curbside pickup there's about
20 of them
and we know so we order from
them if I'm
not cooking at home they say
that you
know as they still had to let
part time
staff go but it's keeping them
afloat
so that the the ingenuity is
really
coming from the people
themselves we
have a cupcake shop here called
sugar
mamas cakes and cupcakes they
too had to
cut back on their part-time
staff but
what they're doing is they're
now
converting to also be baking
bread
because it's harder to get
fresh bread
and you know people are still
doing some
hoarding obviously but I think
that the
stay at home is I think it's
starting to
bother people and I am quite
sure that
just like our our officer said
they're
you know people are gonna what
was the
term he used and we start
hanging and
banging fight yeah boozing and
so think
and oh that's that is what
Texas did do
we've allowed alcohol
deliveries you can
do a lot in tech you can shut
us down
but if you cut us off from
alcohol you
got real problems so the
alcohol the
deliveries are now are not
possible but
in the broader sense of this
and I and I
want to ask you a few questions
or maybe
you've maybe you can just
provide some
answers on you're looking at it
where
we're at right now is were just
an
overview of the money on march
6 eight
point three billion dollars was
appropriated that has to be
that was by
request by Schumer Senator
Schumer it
was much lower he wanted much
higher
eight point three that had to
be spent
within 30 days hence my April
six
prediction and I think we're
still
reasonably on track if not for
the
financial and economic reasons
people
will start hurting each other
it's a
this is not what people are
used to
anymore in this life so he's
looking at
a two trillion dollar package
which will
be done in two different oh I
would then
we had the the gimme to the
Democrats
which was the family first act
of fifty
billion which keeps food stamps
going at
children who rely on school for
their
breakfast and made Nancy Pelosi
look
really important and good for a
half a
second there so now we get into
the two
tranches which should equal two
trillion
dollars it's held up on one
thing at
this point as far as I can tell
and that
is Trump wants to put in this
in this
bill that the companies who
also receive
money because it won't just be
checks to
everybody it will be money to
essential
industries he wants it to be
forbidden
that they use it for buybacks
and he's
very disappointed in some of the
companies who used his tax cut
for
repatriation of their money to
do
buybacks and when you do a
buyback you
the company buys the stock and
which
drives the price up and the
only people
who benefit are the people who
already
hold the stock typically
shareholders
and insiders such as the
executives
themselves and that seems to be
a point
of contention which gives me
another
clue that there's bull crap
going on why
would any company say well now
we've got
to enrich ourselves with that
money we
can't just keep it for the
American
people so I'm skeptical of that
and then
the final thing which I'd like
us to
the markets did not crash on the
coronavirus news the markets
crashed
because of the oil price and I
don't
understand why that's not being
discussed it's just over there
Trump
says from time to time here we
got cheap
prices it's good for everybody
yeah
we're not driving anywhere
thanks fool
what is going on why if it's
just Saudi
Arabia we know Trump can put in
a call
and say yo MBS was up stop that
what is
going on and why and why are we
forgetting that that's what
tanked the
market well was the straw that
tanked
the market it was it was a two
thousand
dollar 2,000 points straw is
what it was
that was not known if the oil
crisis was
the last straw now the oil
crisis came
quickly we had a down day it
would
follow this we had a down day
went up
then then over the weekend we
had the
oil price and then all bets
were off and
it just tanked right everything
but it
was the oil war whatever that
is you
don't hear about it no one's
reporting
on it can anyone say hey Saudi
Arabia
Russia work it out because
that's we've
been told so I'm getting calls
from
everywhere this is the big
reset this is
the they're gonna reset the
financial
markets and I'm here to tell
you no and
the reason why is easily
explained with
help from the former New York
banker
there's still money to be made
in growth
and he still he wrote me last
night he
still believes in the V
recovery with
the technology companies
leading the way
and that's being supported
almost
everywhere in a kind of all
wouldn't it
be horrible kind of way but
when it
comes to online ordering
fulfillment
telemedicine work at home slack
zoom
all of these different of what
is it to
citrix all of these different
companies
that are benefiting from this
it's very hard to believe that
some of
this isn't done to get a great
ride on
the way back up again listen he
the one
who said that we should keep an
eye on
goldman sachs cuz everyone's
gonna hit
the hardest they're gonna be
out done
that yes once and and and i'm
still
waiting for i'll ask him again
about
that because that was the the
repo
market that they were pumping
old and
now that they put in a trillion
and a
half dollars into the overnight
lending
into the repo market that's
typically
done in non crisis times and
they've
done several hundred billion is
because
there's a weak brother amongst
us and he
was hinting to me that that was
goldman
sachs
so something has to give
somewhere in in
that regard here's here's a
MSNBC's
crack analyst kramer
amazon they're out of there
robs you
know was have been waiting i
think for a
1-up day to be able to say some
good
things and what's remarkable
there's
just a course of people saying
you got
to buy amazon that the world
has changed
forever that people realize
that they
can buy this by the way is what
the new
york banker told me he bought
was amazon
many more things on amazon they
thought
i got home last night there
were four
packages from Amazon to my wife
were all
sorts of things that we would
just
normally have just going down
the street
to a Rite Aid or Walgreens and
why
because we don't want to be
where
there's crowds and so Amazon is
the anti
crowd retailer by the way
Amazon and
Walmart both announced hiring
Walmart
announced a spectacular bonus
plan you
know what I think these have to
do David
we come out of this sooner than
other
small businesses can open if we
come out
of this later David there's
gonna be
three retailers in this country
there's
gonna be Amazon there's gonna
be Walmart
there's gonna be Costco and
that is
something that the government
cannot
afford to have happen if it
comes out
that those are the three
can you imagine David what it
means for
this country to just have three
retailers why is he even
thinking like
this this is on his mind it's
on lots of
people's minds and they're
going to get
some of that it's obvious that
some
places will they were before
whatever
reason they they were already
having a
tough go of it with
from the likes of Amazon etc
online
retail food delivery instead of
people
going out they're not going to
come back
it is going to hurt that's
going to cost
jobs and these cocksuckers I'm
sorry
they're just sitting there like
whoa
whoa what would happen then and
by the
way I love it no crowds screw
these guys
this is it has to be over by
April 6
they wouldn't be so cavalier
there's
something that we didn't get
the memo
well Trump did have a hint I
don't have
the clip I kind of wished I did
have it
I don't think I have maybe I
have it but
he said that he's expecting to
be a lot
of people gonna get rich when
the bottom
is is struck
okay he's mentioned he's
mentioned
there's a couple times actually
and I
mean I think there's gonna be a
lot of
buying opportunities but I'm
not I'm
talking more about the
economics and not
the market it's well I well I
do but the
market is like a reflection
it's always
a reflection and it is I don't
see a V
and I don't see one comment I
don't see
any chance of it I think if
there's
gonna be a V it's gonna be a
minor kind
of a pullback it's gonna go
back up a
little bit it's gonna get back
to this
this word it looks like the 1919
thousand looks like a really
nice bottom
where it can sit and stew for a
while
okay but how about so much
money being
taken out of the economy by
people that
are the part-time workers and
everybody
that should be spending money
they get
their won't have any money but
here's
what because of the lack of
information
and also the lack of hope seems
like
hope has just gone out the door
there
people you know I still have
willow and
Italy who here's you know 800
people
died yesterday in in Italy
although they
count everyone who dies in the
hospital
not just those who have
coronavirus so
you know well there's even
though was
they say have a corona virus
apparently
those numbers are exaggerated
it's still
it's not nice when you are on
lockdown
sitting home and you know she's
now
almost two weeks into it you
know the
there there is so little hope
and we
cannot keep this going beyond
two weeks
people will start to get cabin
fever and
you know the experiences we
when I have
are not typical that you know
their
families living in little
apartments and
they got the kids there and it's
stressful and you know dad's
got to do
teleworking and the kids are
Yammer and
it's it's stressful this is not
good
this this this is the part that
worries
me the most and can well the
essay I'm
finished is going to be released
tomorrow if anyone is on the
newsletter
list they will get a link to it
immediately mmm this is a good
reason to
be on the newsletter a it
discusses the
home work telework phenomenon
because
I've been doing it for a lot
longer than
anybody I know mm-hmm and I've
concluded
and I've changed my attitude
about
telework out which is became
the key
word for a while and the 90s
over
telework is the word when you
use the
word telework because it was
telecommute
before that and I used to give
actually
even speech as public speeches
about how
great it is then why I save all
the
money these who needs these big
tall
office buildings I was all in
on the
whole thing and over time I've
come to
realize that it's extremely
difficult
for most people they can't do
it this
whole idea of working from home
sounds
good on paper but most people
don't have
a clue how to do it they don't
know how
to organize themselves to do it
it's and
it will be explained I think is
it
pretty it's not that long of an
essay
couple thousand words
and it is just I've just my
conclusion
was this is a disaster this
whole
working from home thing is
that's why I
say blood in the streets
because at some
point people can't they just be
it's not
that easy to work from home
unless you
have done it for a long time it
takes
over I'd say two years of doing
it
before you get the hang of it
and there
is a hang of it mechanism
that's all I
have to say second half of show
stuff
let's see
of course the conspiracy
theories are
abound in these time
and I feel that is usually my
beat to
keep an eye on them make sure
that
whatever's going on is reported
so we
had several things take place
during
yesterday's briefing this was
oh very
funny
but again I don't understand
why were
you cracking these jokes when
there's
real fear and uneasiness amongst
millions of people one thing
Secretary
of State buffaio is extremely
busy so if
you have any question for him
right now
could you do that because you
know what
I'd like to do I'd like to go
back to
the State Department or as they
call it
the deep State Department you
don't mind
I'd like to have him go back
and do his
job so does anybody have any
question
it's so not helpful it's dumb
it's just
dumb you know
stave the stick for another
time and and
that's gonna be his downfall of
anything
because this cavalier attitude
is not
working even though normally
I'd find
that hilarious
then here's I'm gonna play this
video as
it was posted on YouTube
verbatim and I
caught this too when Pompeo
said it and
what Trump said after that I
think this
youtuber heard incorrectly but
this spun
around the internet really fast
you may
have listened to this video
already but
I want you to listen again this
time I
have a little better sound and
I want
you to pay very close attention
to what
he says
Pompeyo says this is a live
exercise and
what you'll hear in the
background is
Donald Trump say you should
have let us
know so again I'm gonna let it
play over
a couple times so you can hear
it it's
very interesting take a listen
this is not about retribution
this
matters going forward we're
know well
why
exercise here to get this right
we we
need to make sure that even
we're know
we're alive exercise here to
get this
right we we're know we're alive
exercise
here to get this right we we
we're know
we're alive exercise here to
get this
right we all right so you get
the idea
and I just want debunk this
because I
know exactly what Trump said
there
obviously when Pompeo says
we're in a
live exercise here that can
also be seen
as code for it was a drill and
it went
live we've seen this many times
which
would presume a fried fish or
false flag
is we would call it what Trump
says is
not you should have let us know
because
that's now the theory oh it was
a live
exercise and I didn't inform
Trump and
it got out of control him up no
he
continuously says they should
have let
us know he is continuously
saying China
didn't let us know that's what
he's
saying so i'm yeah i call that
debunked
know that that thing is out of
context
i've got i got the same clip
but i would
the same analysis so here's
here's the
one that is right up my alley
fits with the thousands of
sealed
indictments and people are
taking this
one very seriously i want i
won't hit it
all but and this comes from the
q group
mainly we are in total lockdown
because
Trump is now arresting all the
pedophiles around the world is
a good
one but it gets better so the
new one is
adrenochrome they familiar with
adrenochrome yeah that's what
do you you
you scare children and you suck
their
juices out and you get this
adrenochrome
which makes you live longer and
stay
younger so here's the thesis
and that's
why Hollywood elites eat babies
and
drink their blood now that's
not the
conspiracy theory I'm just
stating this
fact
now let's go to the conspiracy
theory is
that you'll love this
because it crosses one of ours
the
theory is one of the dealer's
of this
what's it called again into
Chrome no
adrenochrome one of the dealers
because
it's the most wanted drug
amongst the
elites in the Hollywood VIPs
they they
loaded one of those samples with
coronavirus oh and that was
boob that
was the booby trap the booby
trap was
who and that's why Tom Hanks is
in
lockdown in Australia because
he of
course drank the booby trapped
children
blood and got the coronavirus
and so
there's these maps that
overlays the
corona virus outbreaks and you
see that
they're identical to where all
of the
people are going to be arrested
and
people are very into this
theory very
very serious no none of our
listenership
oh the troll room has been full
of it of
course the troll room is always
full of
it hello but I don't want to
make light
of people because a lot people
have hope
I mean they they really they
believe
this but I'm gonna have to let
you down
I really don't see it I really
really
don't see it this you know
there's it's
just so much out there about
this
adrenochrome and then you know
all these
different celebrities are
jonesing
because they can't get they
can't get
their fix it's fantastic
probably
something I forgot the point I
was gonna
think you had something when
you're
talking about Tom Hanks or
something I
was well no I know exactly what
you I'm
gonna lead you into it we're
gonna talk
about how Hollywood has taken
their
Studios that into their
basements
they've all become oh yeah
there's the
bad podcasters I would say but
I thought
it would be fun to just take a
little a
little break and we'll listen
to some
show business enter to oh I
should
actually it says
[Music]
one week after their coronavirus
diagnosis Tom Hanks along with
wife Rita
Wilson are updating fans on
their road
to recovery with Hanks's
signature sense
of humor good news the symptoms
are much
the same he writes bad news
my wife Rita Wilson has won six
straight
hands of gin rummy and leads by
201
points the couple under
quarantine at a
rental home in Australia after
spending
several days in the hospital
spent of my
24 hours as you can probably
guess
British actor Idris Elba also
checking
in with fans after revealing his
coronavirus diagnosis Monday
have any
symptoms checking my fever
twice a day
and feel good feel okay
while the 47 year old says he's
trying
to stay positive he admits he's
concerned I'm worried about you
know my
having asthma and how that
could make
make things really complicated
for me
very quickly overnight
basketball
superstar Kevin Durant becoming
the
latest celebrity to confirm he
has
tested positive telling a
reporter he
feels fine adding everyone be
careful
take care of yourself and
Quarantine
we're going to get through this
other
stars are doing what they can
to keep
spirits up and help those in
need
John Legend with wife Chrissy
Teigen and
daughter Luna performing a live
concert
on Instagram like all the other
unicorns
Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer
Garner
among the salon think I can
take it
anymore it's too much it's too
much and
it's all paid for and the
nothing's
changed in that regard but
what's got
what gets me is we got Jimmy
Fallon
doing his monologue from home I
don't
have any clips of it so bad
yeah he's
doing his monologue from home
and doing
the show from home with a
laptop that he
pushes buttons on it gets fake
applause
and laughter and it's like why
are we
wasting our time just show some
old
reruns we can do meanwhile what
we can
do it we can do a audience
track it
would be just as bad now so I'm
watching
Saturday I did pick up some
some content
for the show I got listen Harry
Srinivasan is doing the PBS
Newshour on
Saturday from his basement this
is so
over-the-top it's incredibly
stupid but
let's listen to this I got a
three-part
clip because he got some freaky
nurse on
who was on skype and that's
what you
were bitching about curiously
earlier
when I had this that's scary
clip and
you immediately recognized the
Skype
warble and he's like he's not
miked
right he's using a webcam and
it sounds
like crap it looks like crap
and they're
putting that on PBS yes like
like the
rayless show yeah and and he
has a green
screen or actually has a wall
behind him
but he but he keyed it and so
he's got
like a background he looks like
it looks
like Russian the the looks like
the
worst kind of Russian TV from
the 60s
it's actually very interesting
to see
how incapable mainstream is of
making do
with very little now we've done
this
show on a shoestring budget and
if the
whole setup has cost
than 1500 bucks total any given
time
it's a lot and and you know
we've been
around we know how to do it and
these
guys they they fall apart they
don't
know what to do with it they
don't know
how did they don't know what's
what best
best practices are and I guess
they
don't know how to my god I have
to think
they're doing this on purpose
they're
doing this on purpose
there's no there's plenty you
can send a
crew over the crew would gladly
set it
up you know if you're Jimmy
Fallon is
not sick you know test everybody
whatever you need to do I'm
sorry this
is this is this is a Hollywood
man this
is this is this is being done
for a
reason it's all my it's almost
as bad as
Alex Jones being I'm in my
bunker locked
banned by there it's like that
it's that
it's insulting we know you can
do better
than that
no it's it's a it's now a form
or some
some format it's and it sounds
like crap
and I don't believe these guys
take
pride in this but let's listen
to Harvey
and the freaky nurse and this
is the two
of them going on it got three
exception
I don't even know if I need the
let's
play the whole thing because
it's just
she's he's on there on skype
he's at his
base man he's got a lousy mic
rig and
this is the this is network
television
supposedly but listen to this
under
immense pressure health care
workers are
bracing themselves for an
expected
deluge of coronavirus cases
Newshour
weekend special correspondent
Carla
Moorthy spoke with dr. Alexis
Lange's
field who works in an emergency
room at
a New York City Hospital about
her
personal experience not on
behalf of the
hospital now is he reading a
prompter
I would like to know because
this sounds
like is definitely a read I'm
wondering
if he's looking straight in the
camera
because then I'm gonna call
double crap
he was looking in the camera so
he's
might have us who's got a
prompter I'm
calling triple bull crap on
this you
bring in a prompter prompter is
one of
the hardest things to do if
you've never
set it up before yourself I
agree so you
telling me he's got a prompter
but yet
they can't mic him it's
horrible audio
nah it's all staged man yeah
all right
so they cut it to this girl this
freelancer who's in talking
with okay so
they cut it to a freelancer
another one
who instead of him doing the
interviewed
the freelancer does the
interview and
she has almost the same voices
this
freaky nurse from New York who
is she is
just like a hill bot out of
control her
hair's every which way she's
gonna
scared like a deer in a
headlight look
and she's freaked out and she
almost
starts crying at the end of
this whole
interview it's it's well you'll
hear you
can hear it in her voice then I
got
another clip after this after
this woman
of Brookes pretty much going
into tears
okay things are changing day by
day hour
by hour we're also seeing a lot
of
reports that there's just not
enough
protective equipment and safety
equipment for healthcare workers
there's absolutely not enough
protective
gear oh by the way this this is
the
trend this is what we're all
saying
there's not enough P P EPP EPP
there's
not enough of the first health
care
worker to die Trump will have
blood on
his hands you can just take it
from me
supplies as they possibly can
even by
the end of every shift we're
out of
gowns or we're out of we're out
of
bleach wipes we're out of all
the things
that we need in order to
maintain a
clean and sterile workplace I'm
sorry I
just have to say it again
hospitals are
completely managed by the
insurance
companies the insurance
companies they
don't reimburse for individual
operations they say
Hospital we're gonna give you
800
billion dollars this year you
figure out
how you bill everybody for it
they are
the ones that keep the supply
lines
tight since the 90s they're the
ones
that said we got to be more
efficient
less hospital beds so let's
take a look
at where the real problem the
problem is
insurance companies pay for
your cost
and be for your just-in-time
supply
lines which are falling flat
right now a
lot of the emergency rooms and
people
expecting the government has to
have
that all fixed up for you no no
let's
see a Trump let's blame the
right people
knock on doors you know a lot
of places
that's open spaces with
curtains in
between and those aren't places
where
it's safe to have people
cohorted so
we're trying as fast as
possible to
actually divide the ER into
multiple
sections so that we can keep
non-respiratory patients safe
what are
your biggest concerns in terms
of
keeping yourself safe and your
family
safe my biggest concerns are
that now
we're beginning to see that
young people
are getting sick too
the scariest thing here is that
initially we thought that this
was a
disease of older people and
people with
pre-existing conditions and as
horrible
as it sounds I can I can handle
that but
now that we're five 19 30 and
40 year
olds that are coming down with
it just
as severely just as quickly
just as
fiercely it's much scarier to
try and
protect myself and when where
does she
work what are her credentials
again
she's a nurse at one of the big
hospitals in New York she's
really only
talking about herself you think
I'm
afraid of not coming home to my
kids and
my husband and I'm afraid of
them
getting it me not being with
them and
not being able to protect them
I'm in a
situation now where I've
decided that
I'm gonna pick up more shifts
and I'm
dropping my family off outside
of the
city and I'm going back into
the city to
pick up more shifts and work
when we
made these decisions it seemed
like I
still personally wouldn't be at
much
risk but now we just don't know
so with
the lack of personal protective
equipment and with the worst of
the
disease still to come knowing
that
everything is you know we're
just at the
beginning of that steep incline
man the steep incline comes from
increased testing that's where
we get it
from this is a fear monger you
think you
hold the PBS newshour group is
a bunch
of fear mongers although
they're taking
it serious I don't think you're
doing it
I don't think they're doing it
out of
evil intent as a fear model
they're
doing it they're doing because
it's
horny to them it's yes yes they
get off
on this this you know when I
went to
Iraq with the radio show I
admit fully
there was a an element of holy
crap were
going into a war zone look at
me the big
hero you know and that's what
this woman
ends up saying about herself in
the last
of the clip steep incline it's
very it's
very scary okay I just don't
know I can
tell them that I'm gonna do the
very
best to protect myself and then
I have
to do what has to be done
because people
need my help but I can't really
promise
them it's all going to be okay
and when
you drop them off do you know
when
you're gonna see them again
it's it's
not really clear depending on
how things
go if they close off the roads
if they
change things if I'm more
needed but
it's really an indefinite stay
I will
stay and work as long as I'm
needed and
can work so if the population
of needy
patients picks up enough that I
am
needed round-the-clock in the
hospital I
will stay
yeah yeah everyone getting
everyone in
media getting a corona boner
from this
where we're in the basement
look how
innovative we are it reminds me
of CNN
Gulf War round one where they're
downstairs the cameras rocking
were
being bombarded it was all
green screen
or the way or they've got one
guy that
that one guy that I forgot to
what his
nickname was he's always
ducking Peter
Arnett Peter Arnett no not
Peter I never
said he was the young stud was
the Scud
stud the scuds - who was that
it was his
name it wasn't Peter Arnett it
was that
he'd be ducking and oh yeah and
meanwhile they were perfectly
safe
in the basement with with they
had palm
trees that brought down their
Arthur
Kent yeah thanks mr. Bobo well
let me
play a couple of other Brooks I
want to
hear the Brooks one well I got
let's
start with another corona boner
but this
time these these two jokers
have gotten
off on the this is selling the
stock oh
this is this is set that up
because
we've been tracking this Ames
well it's
not really interesting we've
been
tracking this government stock
trading
for um almost since the
beginning of the
whole show and and we went
through the
stock Act which didn't get rid
of this
capability but put some dumb
little
things in place so uh cat was
mostly
about reporting yes in the
basement of
2012 and then the next year
immediately
they took the reporting because
it you
had a reporter on your website
yeah any
transactions stock transactions
but they
were all legal there are still
legal you
could trade on information the
problem
first explain what's going down
because
this this is going to be big
news it
already kind of is but it's
going to
propagate and what's
interesting about
it is there's mainly
Republicans but
also to Democrats involved in
these
allegations and Feinstein is
involved
and they don't mention her ever
yes they do but it's Fox News
mentions
her you know how it goes it's
like right
I don't
Tromp even did this he said
well that's
interesting you mentioned two
Republican
senators you didn't mention
Dianne
Feinstein that shit makes me
crazy at
this point stop it all of you
remember
that's not well you can
complain all you
want yeah we have so the idea
is that
ideas this is that it turns out
that can
if you're in Congress or if
you're even
working in a congressional
office you
can trade stocks on proposed
legislation
and information that you find
out in the
process of legislating you can
trade and
so as crazy as it sounds ladies
and
gentlemen as crazy as it sounds
the only
way to stop something like this
is to
just prohibit all stock market
training
and they they won't they just
refuse to
do it and so they had the they
created
something called the stock Act
which was
because it was out of control
and yet
during the bushing before that
aclinic
administration this sort of
thing and
people got wind of it so they
came with
this phony baloney stock act
which is
really it sounds like you're
can't do it
anymore but in fact it really
involves
more reporting it than anything
else and
they even have a in addition to
the act
amendment that they put in so
you the
reporting has to be private and
in the
basement of the library of
congress in
the basement you're not named to
congress itself i don't think
it's a
Library of Congress I think
it's in the
basement of the Congress but
you're not
allowed to make digital copies
you can't
take in a cellphone if you have
to write
this you have to write
everything down
that you the information you
get there I
mean it's it is the biggest
scam in it
well one of the biggest scams
and our
government is this and that hey
they're
all millionaires up there how
does it
happen huh so they this was
legal yeah
most of it with rare exceptions
it's
totally legal but everyone made
a big
stink because a bunch of guys
got busted
because some smart reporter got
off his
ass he was bored stiff and when
to do
we've been looking at this for
a decade
like oh well mom they got a
briefing in
the trend they sold their stock
Oh even
though as you pointed out the
beginning
of the
this market didn't really
collapse when
they got the briefing or even
shortly
thereafter or even when they've
grown a
virus was announced they could
have sold
their stock they had a long
time to sell
their stock because it was the
oil
crisis that triggered India and
they
didn't get a briefing on that
nope
well not the thought that we
know so now
out that we know well even if
they did
it's this this whole thing what
cuz of
the timing they sold their
stock before
the oil crisis okay yeah it
would be the
time yes yes so they probably
didn't
know and if they did they're a
it's good
good good thing to be so
meanwhile the
era of the media gets all bent
out of
shape about it and they started
being
accusatory and and they're very
upset
about it all and so we have but
before
I'm gonna I got two clips on
this I got
mark shields going on about it
and then
Brooks going into tears but I
want to
play the very opening of Brooks
on PBS
this is a 56 second clip this
is Brooks
nervous Brooks who's supposed to
represent the Republicans or
you know
it's just another Democrat but
he is so
nervous and upset he's gonna go
into
tears throughout this whole
thing he's
remote he's in Annapolis oh my
god what
a horrible place to be an
Annapolis
doing it remotely and he is
scared to
death I just let's see if you
can hear
the nervousness in his voice
David how
do you make sense of this you
know
things going on that I think
most of us
could never have imagined yeah
I sort of
have a split sameen screen
reaction to
this when you talk about
regular people
and how they're acting I think
it's been
a remarkably good week and an
uplifting
week on the whole this is
something even
though we're separated it's
something
we're all going through
together and
we're having the same
experiences and
under drawing the same
anxieties in a
weird way we had to be put
apart in
order to feel together and
there are so
many acts I've heard about or
communicated with and heard
about of
people helping the elderly in
their
apartment buildings about
people having
virtual cocktail parties I
really do
think it's a moment where the
social
connection is written yes and I
think
you and I just wanted to get
the point
you see I don't know if you can
hear but
he's very upset well then this
is
because he by
into the same theory as one of
my Lib
dev friends posting literally
Trump must
go or we all die I'm not kidding
Trump must go or we all die and
Brooks
buys into that he's always
bought into
that stuff yeah yeah he's never
even
believed that Trump could even
win or
get more than so much votes so
let's
play that now here's the
back-and-forth
Judy let's start with the mark
shields
and they're talking about the
stock to
the Senators stock mark one
mark the
report about Senator Richard
burr of
North Carolina senator Kelly
Leffler of
Georgia selling stock back in
January
when they first heard privately
about
how bad coronavirus was going
to be they
both say they didn't do
anything wrong
nothing illegal but people are
asking
questions Judy it's it's a time
especially it is picking up on
David's
point when 49 members of the
Utah Jazz
basketball team and company
immediately
get tested while hundreds of
front line
health care workers can't even
get
tested you know that there is
special
privilege and special treatment
being
shown which the president seemed
strangely indifferent to when
the
question was posed to him and I
just I
think what if this is blood
money that's
all you could say if in fact
they had a
private briefing and then sold
their
stocks and well you know
senator left
well that's fine somebody else
did it I
have a private adviser doing
this I
don't care I mean this this is
if this
is the case that you were
informed of
what was happening and unloaded
stocks
that looked like they were
going to be
losers and took a profit that
truly is
unacceptable it is blood money
and has
to be pursued and prosecuted
does he
know what the law is does you
know
anything about this and saying
there's
no this guy's way these guys
are getting
paid a million bucks each
to come on this show and go on
and on
they don't even know the basics
I hope it's important I hope
that at the
end of this people will really
just be
so turned off by the mainstream
media
and I think that's also part of
what
we're seeing here John is
defensive
moves they know that people are
home you
know the the kid TV channels
their
ratings are up 60% it's a
bonanza for a
lot of stuff they want to get
in on the
Bonanza and they and you know
what's
happening people are going to
podcasts
they know it they know it
they're
podcasters are podcasting seven
days a
week there you know they got
their own
tribes they're keeping
everybody saying
hold on a second maybe what you
suggested earlier about these
these guys
doing the at-home monologues
and all the
rest of it poorly you you had
you had
some theory but what if it's
the sound
more like yes you think a
podcast sounds
like yes because that's what
the kids
want and it's in every disaster
movie in
every single disaster movie you
always
have the guy in the RV
[Music]
now you've always got that guy
usually
played by Woody Harrelson and
and they
envelop should be playing by
Randy Quaid
yes where is Randy Quaid by the
way I'm
still around this this is the
corona
boner that they're all on and I
think
that that's a very good
possibility like
yeah this is the way to go all
the kids
are doing it yeah this sound
this is
what the sound is of their
sound but
we'll give you it would explain
that
prompter prompter is around yes
of
course
here's your prompter so you
feel just at
home we'll make it look and
sound like
the kids want it ah that that's
a
disgusting thought well let's
listen to
Brooks now they go they turn it
to
Brooks he goes he starts
babbling about
something I had to cut deep
into it
before we get to the end and
then at the
end you're gonna hear a pause
the pause
you're gonna hear before it
finishes up
is him actually choking up he's
about to
do he's so upset that he's
about to cry
and then they cut away and he
says
goodbye and that was the end of
it I was
just it's a head shaker but it
also
requires leadership from the top
leadership of empathy it
requires a
sense that everything is
surrendered to
the common good and that's that
we enter
this crisis with all those
things all
the social solidarity levels at
such low
ebb that we have no luxury here
we just
have to develop and have to
grow it in
the worst possible way and
obviously
what those senators did or any
kind of
anything that looks like
privateering
even if it's wrong that is
unacceptable
when what yeah so I mean we've
just got
to keep Social Solidarity
uppermost on
our mind on that note David
Brooks mark
shields thank you for you sure
it wasn't
an IFB someone squawking no no
you can
see him he was just he was like
you
could he got that thing in his
joy he
couldn't talk if you see it
visually
it's not an IFB oh my gosh oh
my gosh
he's for Christ and he said
this thing
he says privateering even if
it's wrong
okay if it's wrong then you've
got
something so you got it it's
kind of
scrub and just a one last clip
I'm going
to sneak this one can I just
say no one
in the House of Representatives
or in
the Senate wants this store
to get any legs the stories to
be kept
very quiet well as quiet as
possible oh
yeah but it's bipartisan so it
should
get kept quiet by the media but
we have
this other kind of the same
kind of a
dance on shrink on Cooper
Anderson
Cooper mm-hm and they and they
were
talking about the kind of a the
same
thing Brooks's there's
something bout
the left is doing this all we
all one
we're all one which i think is
leading
again to global governance yeah
we're
all one we're all the great big
one and
so I couldn't resist getting
this
discussion with shrink Cooper Q
behavior
and see to see are they larger
collective to see the we we can
see the
we in all of this yes and
actually see
the bigger picture i I really
you know
Anderson you and I've talked
about that
a lot I mean we are all in this
together
how I behave affects you how
you behave
affects me and it is a larger
purpose I
you know I have a question
doctor about
this you know we're getting
further into
this crisis obviously in the
United
States I have you know three
kids at
home people have been home now
for a
number of days their their
social
physical distancing they're
starting to
it's starting to settle in that
you know
we're in this for a while this
isn't a
snow day it's it's a it's a
it's a
season of this what should we
be looking
for in terms of mental health
in our
family or our friends it's a
great
question
I wasn't quite ready for that
one
[Music]
imagine all the people who
could do oh
yeah so have a chance today we
have some
people to thank for show
12:27 I believe is a show
number for
today yesterday which Richard
Fox in
Houston Texas is right at the
top of the
list and he actually wrote a
checking
sent a note and I can't find my
glasses
which I'd put somewhere there
and I'll
use these he wrote a note which
ones are
you using now I'm curious is
that the
monocle yeah I use a monocle I
could use
a monocle what does it say
there Kevin
Nicole Pam yeah oh yeah we're
at uh well
you did Michelle Kevin McCall
Colton in
Imperial Pennsylvania says he
is under
fifty bucks thanks for taking
the time
okay so Kevin's out of the way
it's
Richard Fox and Steve Steve and
Richard
Fox gave the exact same amount
of money
and uh Richard needs some D
douching
even that you've been deduced
and then I
think they both had their note
was a
very almost identical yeah
okay I'm say anyway the point
is is that
there was a coincidence here
I'm a
Florida I think you learned at
Steve's
note steve says he works in
broadcast
himself back in the eighties
and he
finds the media discussions
interesting
which will you do constantly
got out an
83 went to the wireless
industry the
broadcast never wanted to pay
for
engineers I guess they've
gotten cheap
over the years which we
noticing yes uh
okay sorry boys I do sing for
one of
them and then we're done
okay we just did that so we're
done okay
that's Richard Houston Texas
and Steven
or Dripping Springs both 13333
sir
Donald from Spokane Valley this
is
borovsky the fire bottles yeah
I who is
always sending a note on

Planets here's

a raven
coincidence he wants me to
introduce
Bambi to the stage this was
also in one
of those notes earlier from
Steve or Fox
it's just strange I'm just
finding it
weird today are you gonna
invite Bambi
to the stage I don't think we
have Bambi

tribe really
and hang out and have a good
time no
triggering involved let's see
what we
have today the Philly local 76
dogs are
people - attention slaves and
producers
this is some serious Marianne
Williamson
shit here this meetup will be
in spirit
only grab your loved ones and
ponder the
show and all of its great
analysis lots
of beer will be required for
this
spiritual journey into amygdala
shrinking so I guess that's
canceled
loosely or organized by Esther
scatman
of Norristown for this coming
Saturday
we had a Kansas City Meetup
state of
state of emergency edition but
effectively Tuesday the 24th
our fair
city will undergo a so-called
state home
order for 30 days 30 days one
of the
exceptions still allowed for
travel is
walking your dog this is why
our family
decided we'd walk
dogs over to the Swope Park
off-leash
dog park this Saturday from 3
to 5 feel
free to join us during that
time for
amygdala therapy and fellowship
if you
don't have a dog don't worry
we'll bring
extra so you can walk during the
specified time very creative
sir Spencer
wolf of Kansas City and Dane
DeLorean
and on also this coming
Saturday the
first of hopefully many meetups
from the
slave state of New York due to
the venue
being closed this is Rochester
I have
back-up plan I would like to
set up a
virtual video meeting if you're
still
interested I'll email you a
link before
the event the first-ever
Rochester video
meetup will we will not be
silenced
organized by MJ chuan and you
can get
all the information for that
and just
cower in place everybody will
wait until
we can do more meetups but it's
good to
see that people are trying to
get that
together virtually also no
agenda social
calm they coordinate their
jujitsu
meetups or whatever that video
thing is
called seems to be a lot of fun
around
the world and we look forward to
reopening these meetups very
soon with
the proposed date of the
turnaround
being April 6 we shall see just
go to no
agenda meetups calm
sometimes you wanna go hang out
with all
the nights and days everybody
[Music]
[Applause]
well I got the one thing to
discuss just
a quick one clip which is a
political
clip because we knew that if
you read
that essay I wrote some time
back about
why the Democrats don't want
Bernie it's
because they don't want they
want
Bloomberg's money and Bloomberg
said and
the bankers said that if it's
going to
be Warren or Bernie we're out
you guys
are gonna have to fend for
yourself
there's not gonna be any money
for down
ballot candidates you guys are
gonna be
screwed so I guess that the
Democratic
National Committee did enough
of a job
on Bernie you know with the
irregular
voting and the arizo it's
always the
Republicans that are stopping
the vote
but these guys have managed to
get by it
into winning states such as
Minnesota
where I didn't even campaign or
have an
office to win anything and so I
guess
they finally convinced
Bloomberg that
the Denver at the DNC did did
the right
thing and he's all back in now
and
here's this clip he's giving
eighteen
million dollars to the DNC
former
Democratic presidential
candidate
Michael Bloomberg announced
today he is
transferring eighteen million
dollars to
the Democratic National
Committee the
money comes from his campaign
account
and is the largest such
transfer ever at
the same time Bloomberg dropped
plans to
keep hundreds of campaign
workers on his
own payroll in support of the
party's
nominee I think he fired them
by now I
think yeah he fired a lot so
much for
that total person kill it kill
it kill
it total people person have
anything
else to do Mike this is job you
promised
you're gonna keep us on yeah
get out
with all of the you know the
conspiracies surrounding the
these
sealed indictments and the the
eating
babies and drinking baby blood
and all
this crazy stuff Sidney Powell
who I
find to be quite an impressive
lawyer
who is she's representing Flynn
I think
right Mike Flynn
I don't know yeah I think she is
actually the keeper was reading
her book
and she's reading me bits of it
and it's
very interesting she seems to
be a very
high-powered attorney and
amidst of all
of these conspiracies she
throws a
little Diddy on top of the fire
675,000
Clinton emails when they got
Anthony
Weiner's laptop in a search
warrant
because of all his sex
perversion issues
it was all the Clinton emails
the
Clinton Foundation her
Secretary of
State emails Huma Abedin emails
lots of
people emailed who might as a
proxy for
Hillary so one of the things if
I were
the president I'd do is demand
the
Anthony Weiner laptop and get
it to the
most trusted person in the
military to
take apart everything on it and
then
start using it there's a lot
that can be
prosecuted I have no doubt on
that
laptop inferred stuff in fact I
heard
that the New York police
officers who
saw some of it even though
they're
hardened investigators
literally had to
go through a lot it's bad what
yeah well this what go what
what would
make you read what you saw
you're going
through Hillary 675 thousand
meals
randomly and you read something
and you
feel like you have to go you
actually
have to literally oh you don't
you don't
you don't know what this is
about you
never heard of this no I don't
know what
this is about at all ears huh
the the
term is owned on the term is
come on
[Music]
come on troll room frazzle
frazzle
something frazzle pop frazzle
Ritz what
the hell is it there's a term
for it
this is how it's coded by cue
etc but
apparently there's a video of
this is
what I've heard about this
month is
what's going on I know it's you
know
okay the video of hillary and
uma and
apparently they they cut a
child's face
off and wear the skin face on
their own
face fragglerock that's what a
frazzle
drip frazzle drip that's the one
frazzled drip don't go looking
for the
video you'll get on
list somewhere don't do it
don't do it
you're gonna be a list it's
also not
it's not an existence as far as
I know
but that's that's where it's
coming from
but you know who knows I don't
know I
really don't know here's one
that I
liked a lot this kind of
slipped by and
I love I love reporting on this
this is
a NASA Administrator what's his
name
Jim Burton Steen Stein
he gave an update now this is
just
before the the corona virus
started the
hitting big in China so we
didn't hear
much about this but he gave an
update on
the Artemis program this is the
this is
our mission to the moon and
he's all
jacked up about it it's gonna
be and of
course a global initiative it's
gonna be
big never done before and
listen up so
as we go forward there's a lot
that
needs to be done in order to
create the
architecture that we need to
create at
the moon we've got to have the
SLS
rocket again the most powerful
rocket
the United States of America
has ever
built we need a European
service module
when we go to the moon for the
first
time it will be international
in nature
I mean just explain to me how
the
administrator says this we need
a
European service module when we
go to
the moon for the first time it
will be
international in nature I'm so
excited
to go to the moon for the first
time
first time the European service
module
is a critical component to the
Orion
crew capsule the Orion crew
capsule is
how we get our astronauts to the
vicinity of the moon but
there's not
enough Delta V there to go too
low lunar
orbit and land on the surface
of the
Moon Oh what-what up so we need
to get
more Delta V where do we get
that we are
building a reusable command
module in
orbit around the moon that we
call
gateway I like what someone in
the troll
room is saying the troll room
says he's
reading the prompt or wrong
that the
line break or the comma is in
the wrong
place
which is possible I'd like to
listen
against rocket again the most
powerful
rocket the United States of
America has
ever built
we need a European service
module when
we go to the moon for the first
time it
will be international in nature
oh yeah
I think that's good that's
that's
probably what it is when we go
to the
moon , for the first time we
need a
European service module when we
go to
the moon , the first time it
will be
international in nature I'm very
disappointed now thanks that
strolling
man right there you trolled me
into into
bad mood yeah it's just a bad
read well
I'll keep trying it's still a
good clip
you still bring it out of the
context
what do you have open offices
you love
going to when you're the
speaker you can
go bring this clip out yeah
that'll work
alright let me see if there's
anything
else we need to talk about I
think I
think we're pretty good for now
I do
have quite a number of end of
show mixes
as you can imagine
they are all surrounding the
the virus
well obviously with the size of
the
troll room and the long
donation segment
and as much as I hate to say
this that
the talking about this thing
seems to be
what people want for that for a
while
anyway
yes for a while first you find
it
tedious I know I know you do
but I think
it's important we're doing
probably at
least for somebody's doing the
job right
yes yes indeed indeed
all right end of show mixes sir
seats
that are Chris Wilson Leola
puke atomic
glue and secret agent Paul and
we've got
