heart of the Texas hill country

John C Dvorak: in from Northern
Silicon Valley where we had a 10
cars suffer from Chelsea divorce
Adam Curry: Wow an early morning
Zephyr report Who would have
expected that that's a fantastic
that's a great way to kick off
the show
John C Dvorak: it was an eight
cars effort with two private
cars in the back and Baja
father's days
Adam Curry: father's father's
day special
John C Dvorak: and the two cars
the back were a like a sleeper
and a observation vistadome car
that were so pretty. Cream and
chrome oh it was like you go
look at this and compared to the
rest of the train you go what
happened to design in this
country? Oh my God
Adam Curry: I am so happy for
you Happy Father's Day.
Unknown: Happy Father's Day to

Adam Curry: Yeah, did you get
did you get Father's Day gifts?
You get to tweet text anything?
Unknown: Yeah, I got it. I got
this
Adam Curry: you actually got
tweets. Oh yeah. Boy they know
daddy. Well don't they give the
old man this keep busy for
hours.
Unknown: Then they found this
Adam Curry: what is that?
Unknown: Turkey call
Adam Curry: now do you blow on
that or is that electronic?
John C Dvorak: No you it's a two
handed operation you used to you
slam it was your fist you know
about that?
Adam Curry: I do now yeah. Oh,
excellent. So nice. My
John C Dvorak: favorite. Is this
the chicken thing? Is this thing
though. The little squawk at the
end? It's cartoony? Yes. Good
kids don't do that. No
Adam Curry: they do a little bit
like that. Okay, all right,
everybody there you go. This is
the best podcast in the
universe. And now you know why?
Man something cool happened last
night.
Unknown: That I pray tell ya.
Adam Curry: So on I think it was
was it's Friday. I think Joe
Rogan had JFK Jr. on his
podcast. And for about the first
two hours, he just railed on
vaccines and went into into
depths I'd forgotten we've
deconstructed most of this. But
you know how how they really
work and and how the schedule is
increased and legality of it.
And of course, he knows about
all this because he sued many of
these companies. And it was
interesting because Joe started
off with a whole like five
minute monologue like a
soliloquy about he always
thought that, you know, JFK Jr.
was an anti Vaxxer a kook a nut
job, tinfoil hat wear and dude
until he read his book about
Anthony Fauci. And so this just
went on and it was beautiful. On
and on, and on and on. And yeah,
he says all kinds of stuff like,
you know, we should ban
advertisement of farm on
television, and I mean, really
stuff that we pretty much would
agree with. And then now Joe
never goes on Twitter. I think
he whatever he does, he does
Instagram and then whatever he
posts on Instagram, it gets
reposted on Twitter, and Hotep
Hotez. Now, our friend up there
in North Texas. He starts going
off, you know, typical Twitter,
like, Oh, look at these look at
these to spreading
misinformation about vaccines.
And so Joe pops on the Twitter
and says, Hey, Peter Hotez. He's
been on his show to hotel,
hotel, hotels, Hotez. He says, I
will donate $100,000 to the
charity of your choice. If you
come in and debate, Robert F.
Kennedy, Jr. had no time limit.
And all hotels will do her own
hemming and hawing. And then now
people are you know, there's
people throwing 100 grand on top
of that, and it's like $800,000
hotels, it's like, well, you
know, I'll come on I'll talk to
you but you can talk to
misinformation guy. He won't do
it.
John C Dvorak: Nobody will
debate makalah they won't bait
debate Malone. They won't debate
anybody, this whole group of
people and Hotep is one of the
top of the group OPERS. Yeah,
they will not talk about it.
They have their spiel. And they
don't want to talk about it.
That's it. No, no debate. It's
like sciences. And
Adam Curry: it's like,
checkmate. It's really
fantastic. Now, I doubt that the
M five M will do anything with
this, because we, we don't let
anybody know about this. But
it's pretty, it's pretty vital
right now. So very, very
interesting. situation. I liked
it a lot. I thought it was very
funny. And I And I'll say this
about that. RFK RFK saying, I
think we should ban pharma
advertising. Actually, I have
the clip, well listen to the
clip. And I'll say, I'll say
this about that,
Unknown: oh, you know, ambitions
have completely subsumed the
regulatory function of those
agencies. And that has, and, you
know, one of the things that we
need to do, too, is the
pharmaceutical advertising on
television, there's only two
countries in the world that
allow it on his New Zealand, the
other is our country, everybody
who is knowledgeable is against
it. It not only has compromised,
you know, has compromised public
health, we now we take largely
because of that advertising, we
take three or four times the
amount of drugs as Europeans
take. And drugs are the number
three killer in our country,
pharmaceutical drugs, the number
three killer after cancer and
heart attacks. They're not
making us healthier, we have we
spend more on health care, or
point 3 trillion than any
country in the world. And we
have the worst health impacts.
And we're behind like Mongolia,
Costa Rica, Cuba, in terms of
our health outcomes, all of
these drugs, the pharmaceutical
industry is not making us safer,
safer, it's not making us
healthier. And you know, we
changed the rule in 1990 97.
Prior to 1997, like cigarettes
and liquor, you couldn't
advertise on TV, we changed
those rules. And FDA allowed the
pharmaceutical companies to
advertise and they not only now
have a platform from which they
can tell everybody you're safe.
You need this, you need that.
But also, they are able to
dictate content on television,
so they can dictate content on
the you know, on the local and
Adam Curry: on YouTube. Yeah, of
course. Yeah. Not much new here
for for the no agenda listener,
obviously. But as it comes to,
you know, we always vote
independent. We don't we don't
vote for any of the parties. We
can't it's I mean, I can't even
bring myself to do it and too
bad. He's running as a Democrat.
Because as a single issue,
voter, I guess, if I were one of
those, it would so it would help
so much. It relates to
everything and relates to trans
Maoism. It relates to children
being morons. It relates to
education, it relates to
probably to mass murder, you
know, children going nuts with
guns, it relates to adults being
idiots it relates relates to so
much, just that one move, you
said it yourself would probably
solve some things in America.
You know, forget all the all the
stuff that all the other
candidates say this might
actually affect something. And I
guess somewhere he said he would
issue an executive order to do
it if he was president. I don't
know if he can. I don't know if
he can do that. I believe he'd
be sued immediately. I mean,
that would be freedom of speech,
all kinds of First Amendment
issues, I'm sure. But at least
someone's bringing attention to
it. Which is kind of cool.
Unknown: Yeah. Besides us.
Adam Curry: Yeah, I mean, yeah,
but it's finally
John C Dvorak: finally the media
is not going to do it because
it's too much money. They're
getting too much cash. Yeah,
it's just corrupted the whole
system. That's the real issue.
zactly
Adam Curry: Well, and that's
another thing that came out this
morning. shockwave through TV
Land. This is the Netherlands
now the Netherlands is
interesting. Because very
western very liberal country.
They have an interesting media
mix of state controlled
propaganda, but also commercial
television. And this was the the
big story this morning headlines
from the media analysts as the
ratings came out. Everything's
flopping there. For the past
three days, the television
ratings in the Netherlands have
never been lower ever before.
less than 13% of the country
watched any television at all.
And And then the state channel
three had a zero had zero people
watching it yesterday. This
something happening here. This
switch is coming and it's
happening everywhere. You know
it's happening you know in
Australia seeing it NOW.
Headline ABC is quiet revolution
behind sackings as viewers
switch off TV tune into tick
tock. I'm not saying it's all
good, what's happening, but at
least they're moving away from
the mainstream, which is just
dribble and poison, and just
nothing good. And that's
probably why, you know, the
politicians are so freaked out
about exactly about tick tock
and other places, then Elon Musk
with his always free speech.
Because they don't they don't
control the message their
messaging system is breaking. It
really is.
John C Dvorak: Well, still
better than any other one
source.
Adam Curry: What do you mean?
John C Dvorak: I will? Well,
there's no I mean, there. If you
take all the podcasts and you do
all his you know, it's very
distributed. Yeah. And as
opposed to one network TV show
that can bring in 30 million
people.
Adam Curry: Yeah. Well, that's
the that's the show.
John C Dvorak: I watched I was
watching. Oh, a n. Yes. What
American Woman Yeah. And the one
woman is the kind of over made
up, pretty girl. Who's on?
Adam Curry: That's everyone on
that channel. Which one is
which?
John C Dvorak: One in
particular? She had the America
shaman on for his first
interview.
Adam Curry: Oh, did you got any
clips?
John C Dvorak: No, I just was on
this morning. I was watching you
just before the show. Oh, and
the guy is a star.
Adam Curry: He's let me let me
guess he really has a great rap.
John C Dvorak: Besides having a
sounds a little like, like a
surfer guru. He's got a terrific
rap. A tremendous personality.
Adam Curry: Yeah, was he? What
did he look like? Did he have
the hat on the helmet?
John C Dvorak: No. Now he's got
a bald head. Oh, and a Taliban
beard. Jacob Chancellor. Yeah,
Chancellor. He's got a bald
head. He was wearing a suit and
a bald head in it and a Taliban
beard. Night he's a charmer Oh,
and
Adam Curry: what was the main
what was what was the main
message is this story
John C Dvorak: a story by
getting thrown in the slammer
the racist black a guards that
were trying to you know, beat
him up every chance they could
because he was the supposedly
white supremacist. He just had
funny stories to tell and he but
he was I there's one clip I
didn't have to go back and get
because it was so funny. She
asked him a bunch of government
questions and he his response to
her was just priceless because
he was questions he couldn't
answer because there was there
was a gag order on this one line
of questioning it seems he
couldn't say that either. But he
did like this triple take and
then he and he just said
something that he says no
comment in a very funny way. And
good good. He is really good he
said he's he pays starting a
website a podcast Get over
yourself perfect but what he
needs is a Hollywood agent.
Adam Curry: If see I disagree
this is no longer necessary.
Rogan will probably pick him up
and it truly podcasts are the
last bastion of free speech and
people are selecting their own
little you know whatever they
John C Dvorak: understand your
position there's though you say
it over and over again. But he
if he had an agent he would
really blossom
Adam Curry: i disagree and the
reason I know you do but I'm
just telling you what I think I
know but I'm but I'm trying to
lead into a clip but you keep
interrupting me when I disagree.
Unknown: Doing it right yeah.
Adam Curry: Wow. Should I do
that and to signal to you that I
have a clip
John C Dvorak: Oh, I don't know.
If you're gonna be if it begins
with a disagreement that creates
an argument. Okay, how about
that? It's gonna be tough.
Adam Curry: Let's try it again.
Oh, I agree with your position
from your standpoint. But let me
play a clip Spotify
Unknown: is moving on from
Prince Harry and Duchess Megan
to streaming services not
renewing their podcast. Both
sides say they've mutually
agreed to part ways ending their
estimated $25 million deal. The
podcast ran for only 12 episodes
beginning last summer.
Adam Curry: The whole Spotify
thing is falling apart. They
invested a billion dollars.
They've now fired almost
everybody they Aqua hired.
They're getting ready to read
every single big contract. All
of the Obamas are gone.
Everyone's gone. The only one
left is Joe then I don't know
what he Joe probably had a smart
deal. The whole thing didn't
work. The Influencers don't
work. The celebrities don't
work. No one cares anymore.
John C Dvorak: You argue with me
you're saying podcast is the
answer. And that's a podcasting
operation. Oh,
Adam Curry: under no, those were
exclusives. It was not a
podcasting operation. Their
exclusive you couldn't get them
anywhere you get your podcasts.
You see. You couldn't get the
Obamas on any podcast app. You
couldn't get Meghan Markel. You
had to go to Spotify. That's the
point. The Hollywood system
broke. No one cares. No one
cares. They care about us. I
think kind of a little bit. Some
people
John C Dvorak: a few was saying
that no one cares.
Adam Curry: Because watching
that they're not interested.
John C Dvorak: Here's what I
think. No, it was crappy model.
It was yes. Stupid. Yes. It
violated the principles of
podcasting. Yes, it's
Unknown: Hollywood model you and
me on now.
Adam Curry: It's a Hollywood
model. That's my point.
John C Dvorak: I don't think
it's necessarily a Hollywood
model is a book publishing
model. It's a publishing
Adam Curry: model. You can get
your books anywhere. You can get
books on Amazon, you're only one
publisher? No, it's they had to
distribution. It's not just the
publishing they wanted to
constrict the distribution.
You're not gonna argue with the
pod father. Seriously. Are you
now?
John C Dvorak: No, I there's a
flaw in your thinking. What's
the flaw?
Adam Curry: Okay, accepted.
There's a flaw and we don't know
what it is. They followed the
Hollywood model. They hired
Hollywood people to do a
Hollywood thing where it's only
Oh, we have it all. You have to
come to us to get it. That was
the flaw. That's the law. I'm
John C Dvorak: not gonna say
that's not a huge flaw. It's a
mess. Yeah, but the bigger
question, is there going to be
any Neumann mics available?
Adam Curry: I sure hope so. You
know what, if there's anyone
within Spotify, we'd love to
pick up a couple of cheap
Neumann mics we really and
maybe, you know, I'm sure they
got some other gear. What else
could we get from them? They
probably
John C Dvorak: probably have
some nice mixers. I
Adam Curry: bet you they got
some good chairs. Sure. The
chairs together. Yes, exactly.
All right. Now the other big
news. I mean, just it just was
nonstop, non stop. Finally, the
cyber pandemic has arrived.
Unknown: Tonight senior
government officials are racing
to limit the impact of what one
cyber expert is calling
potentially the largest theft
and extortion event in recent
history. American targets
include multiple federal
agencies, including the
Department of Energy, plus Johns
Hopkins affiliated hospitals in
Maryland and Florida, Georgia's
statewide university system and
the Minnesota Department of
Education. British Airways was
also hit. Officials say the
hackers are part of a cyber
criminal gang called clop call
me to operate from inside
Russia.
We've started already seeing
some of the data that was stolen
as part of their work to date.
These companies we strongly
encourage anyone who is a user
of this software to of course
patch locked down their systems,
the cyber criminals are
exploiting a software program
called Move it which companies
and government agencies to
transfer data including personal
information, the group steals
the data and in this message
believed to be from the hackers
warns that if a ransom is not
paid, after seven days, all your
data will start to be published
sometimes on the dark web. Cyber
expert Brent callow says foreign
adversaries and criminals will
be looking to leverage the data
overseas governments will no
doubt be very interested in
obtaining the information or
clop obtained through these
Adam Curry: Okay, couple things
here first of all, clop clop
believed to be operating from
Russia
Unknown: messages clear
Adam Curry: clip Yeah. So we got
clop and then there's this
program called Move it now
there's something missing from
the reporting here. The spate
really this move it stuff from
what from what it looks like to
me, you upload your files, their
encrypted 256, hash, hash,
whatever, you know, the above,
on any one possibility, one of
the many possibilities and it
probably works a bit like we
transfer or whatever and so what
these companies are saying there
was a data breach, but then how
do they know that these it's not
your typical ransomware it's not
they haven't locked up computers
it kind of you know, the
reporting borderlines on that.
But they say no, you know, if
you don't pay us money, no
mention of how much or how you
You're supposed to pay it.
Usually they throw in Bitcoin.
Yeah, that has been basically
mentioned missing from the
missing from them from the
Unknown: recording is terrible.
And that's a harridge.
Adam Curry: But you know, so did
they show somebody something
because they Oh, if you don't
pay us, we're gonna start
leaking your information, maybe
even on the dark web. So what
exactly? How do they know this?
I mean, this is not an intrusion
into networks. This is a
service. It's not as far as I
could tell. It is not a piece of
software. It is it is a service
that people use. And of course,
these guys got a government
approval. So all governments
Whoa, sounds like a good idea.
Let's put it all on encrypted on
AWS, or whatever they're using.
Okay. Yeah. You know, and
everyone's jumping on board now
from Fox eight.
Unknown: This is a special
report. Good morning, I'm
listening as we interrupt your
programming to bring you this
breaking news from Homeland
Security officials in Baton
Rouge after a massive data
breach impacting all
Louisianians, especially those
which Louisiana licenses, let's
listen, let's listen in
breaking governmental entities
and organizations around the
world. Move it is a third party
data transfer service that is
widely used to send large files.
And it is at the center of this
very sophisticated breach very
sophisticated. You've probably
already heard other national
news reports about major
businesses and organizations
dealing with this as well.
Yesterday morning, Governor
Edwards held a unified command
group meeting in which he was
briefed on the newly discovered
scale of this attack involving
office of motor vehicle data.
Oh, no, he then felt it was
imperative that we get this
information out to the public
immediately so that folks could
take proactive measures. To be
clear, we believe that all
Louisianians with a state issued
driver's license ID or car
registration likely had data
compromised.
Adam Curry: Now what does that
mean? I mean, this this is, this
seems asinine. I don't even
think this is not even related.
This I think that Joel Oh, you
know, it was just throw this in
there. I'd love to know if any
of our producers out there have
used move it and what it does
exactly, but this whole thing
Unknown: stinks. like it'd be
much different than Dropbox.
Adam Curry: I wouldn't think so.
But it this whole thing stinks.
This doesn't make any sense. And
the Department of Energy, or
whatever they do with the
Department of Department of
Energy doesn't run your
electricity. They don't they
don't they don't do that. So
okay, so what did they have just
a government website? Did they
get some important documents
from Granholm? I can tell you
what they say. More hydrogen.
Now, it's not that hard to
imagine. What
John C Dvorak: was the thing
about the DT what DMV records?
What difference does it make?
Exactly?
Take take I actually I think,
you know, this is and by the
way, this was an evolutionary
reporting. Yes. At first, when
it first came out. It was well
blob. Oh, it's nuts into it. And
it's not Russia. We checked on
that it's not Russia, then all
of a sudden became a flop as
Russia claw Russia, but not
Russia now. But now it's not the
Russian government. So we know
it's not the Russian government.
Squat. clop clop I think, and
they've ended and the real thing
that stands out like a sore
thumb to me. Is Johns Hopkins.
Yes. spook. Out of the blue is
this this this this John, what
and what other universities were
hacked? This is one of those
stories you see where 30 people
are killed so they can execute
one guy and it gets lost in the
shuffle. I think John Hopkins
was a target for some reason.
And the rest of his all smoke
screen just so we don't get we
don't start noticing Johns
Hopkins.
Adam Curry: I like it makes a
lot of sense.
John C Dvorak: And what did they
get from Johns Hopkins? That's
what we need to know.
Adam Curry: Well, we're not you
probably
John C Dvorak: have to tell us
if it's kind of a front for the
intelligence groups any one of
them. There's got to be
information that is come to
light.
Adam Curry: Yeah, well, the way
it's played in the mainstream US
Department of Energy got ransom
requests. Oh, I have I have a
ransom request for you. Excuse
me. Thank you, Mister request. I
can't pay this. Sorry. Okay.
Well, it was only a request
don't take it seriously. From
the Russia linked extortion
group. Now it's an extortion In
group Klop extortion group at
both its nuclear waste facility
and scientific education
facility that were recently hit
in a global hacking campaign.
See, these are all words that
are all data was compromised at
the to DOE entities after
hackers breached their systems
through a security. So this is
different, did they they breach
their systems. But what are they
in the network? After they they
breach their systems through a
security flaw in the File
Transfer Tool, move it to
transfer. The software is widely
used by organizations around the
world to share sensitive data
that you used it? No, I've never
even heard of it. We use SFTP
Well, I'm not I'm not an
organization. Just a dude.
John C Dvorak: Do we know that
it's widely used? I've never
heard of it either. From the
Adam Curry: US government
department to the UK telecom
regulator and energy giant shell
energy energy. A range of
victims has emerged since
Burlington Massachusetts based
progress software found the
security flaw in its move it
transfer product last month,
Unknown: last month, last month
Adam Curry: now, but now the
wide ranging impact of it shows
how even the most security
minded federal agencies are
struggling to defend against
ransomware attacks. Ransomware
gangs typically scour for such
widely used
John C Dvorak: tools. This is
conflating two stories.
Ransomware we know how that
works? Yeah, it doesn't work
through move it.
Adam Curry: Yeah. But here's a
little here's a little more
interesting. Here we go. The
Ransom requests. Ransom
John C Dvorak: isn't a ransom
request is not the same as
ransomware.
Adam Curry: But it's also rented
would be a ransom demand. Not a
request. Yeah, ransom.
John C Dvorak: Exactly. Do you
agree?
Adam Curry: They demanded
ransom. Oh, they requested why
are they using the word request?
The Ransom requests to the
Department of Energy came in
emails to each facility said the
spokesperson without revealing
how much money was demanded what
what kind of request is that?
They came in individually, not
as kind of a blind carbon copy.
Oh, was targeted email. The two
entities that received them did
not engage with clop. And there
was no indication the ransom
requests were withdrawn. Now
that goes straight into the
Department of Energy, which
manages US nuclear weapons and
nuclear waste sites related to
the military. Yeah, they do a
lot more than that. But okay.
They talk about battery cars
notified Congress of the breach
and is participating in
investigation with law
enforcement and the Cisar says
ha, oh club did not respond to
requests for comment. But in a
post, but in a post on its
website, wait a minute, club has
a website?
Unknown: Do they have a
spokesperson?
Adam Curry: Well, they Well,
they didn't respond to requests
for comments. They must have a
pr@clop.org I guess. The posts
on his website. It said yeah, it
said all caps. We don't have a
god you don't have any
government data. God do a
Russian voice and suggested that
should the hackers inadvertently
have picked up such data in
their mass theft. We still do
the polite thing and delete all
John C Dvorak: their polite side
is this. Hackers are these Oh
wow. This is a scam
Adam Curry: Recorded Future
analyst Alan Liska said clop was
likely making a big deal out of
how they purportedly deleted
government data in an attempt to
protect themselves from
retaliation from Washington and
other governments. This is horse
crap. Like massive loads of it
too. Now, I don't the whole
thing with bullet
John C Dvorak: point again, I
shot again, Johns Hopkins. This
shows up as the sore red flag on
this.
Adam Curry: Let's just listen
one more time to the witch
school. It was
Unknown: knights senior
government officials are racing
to limit the impact of what one
cyber expert is calling
potentially the largest theft
and extortion event in recent
history. American targets
include multiple federal
agencies, including the
Department of Energy, plus Johns
Hopkins affiliated hospitals in
Maryland and Florida
Adam Curry: affiliated
hospitals, affiliated hospitals
in Maryland. So
Unknown: Georgia's statewide
university system,
Maryland and Florida.
Adam Curry: Maryland. I don't
that's interesting. I mean,
there's a lot more they don't
mention any of the other one.
one's there. Here we go Johns
Hopkins what we do? That's a
children's hospital I think in
St. Petersburg, Florida. Yep, I
don't know. The whole thing is
weird. And I was hoping it would
fit into Klaus, you know, we all
know,
Unknown: but still pay
insufficient attention
insufficient. Is there a
frightening scenario of a
comprehensive cyber attack,
which would bring to a complete
halt to the power supply?
Transportation, hospitals
services, our society as a
whole. Oh, by 19 crisis would be
seen in this respect as a small
disturbance in comparison to a
major cyber attack, to use
COVID-19 guises as a timely
opportunity to reflect on the
lessons cybersecurity community
can draw and improve our
preparedness for potential cyber
pandemic.
Adam Curry: It could just be a
beginning of a setup create a
bit of tension like Oh,
everywhere. Oh, I got my
driver's license who? Oh, gum
Hill. Yeah, something like that.
That by coincidence, if there is
such a thing, President Obama
was on The X Files podcast. You
know, David Axelrod, his
handler, does the X Files for
CNN Podcast Network. And they
were talking about the digital
ID I think, in in a backhanded
way.
Unknown: This is disruptive for
our economy. They're even close
to the issues we were talking
about before. In terms of
misinformation, disinformation,
fakes. I've seen a few of
you. Yes, I've told people
because I was the first digital
president when I left office as
probably the most recorded
filmed photograph human in
Adam Curry: women. Is that a
moniker he was given the first
digital president? Not that I
recall, I think it was Bill
Clinton, who helped get the Bill
Clinton was the
Unknown: first black president.
Sorry, you're
I've seen I've seen a few of
you. Yes. I've told people
because I was the first digital
president when I left office as
probably the most recorded
filmed photograph human in
history, which is kind of a
weird thing. Yes.
Adam Curry: Human not out human
in history.
Unknown: A human human really.
Adam Curry: You don't sweat
Barak know if you're human
Unknown: in history, which is
kind of a weird thing. Yes. I
just the odds are that I was as
consequence,
Adam Curry: the odds are that I
this is aggrandizement on quite
a scale the odds are that I was
just don't argue with me acts
just handle me.
Unknown: Yes, I just the odds
are that I was as consequence,
there's a lot of raw material
there. So usually, all the
defects start with like some
version of Obama doing something
dancing, saying, dirty limericks
are some version
John C Dvorak: of Obama. Is that
what he said? Yeah, he's seeing
himself in the third person.
Yes,
Adam Curry: of course. The you
know, Obama, the personal
version of Obama. Yeah. By the
way, that didn't work. Those
weren't deep fakes. We just the
people just edited your audio
book in a different order. We
remember the Obama deep fakes
now, just all the swear words
all the cuss words you put in
your audio book people put them
together was hilarious. Not a
deep fake. Not a deep fake.
Unknown: There's plenty of those
not a deep fake misusing the
term Yes.
Usually all the defects start
with like some version of Obama
doing something dancing, saying
dirty limericks are.
Adam Curry: Right, there was
plenty of you dancing, Mr.
President,
Unknown: that technology is here
now.
Adam Curry: That technology is
here now. Most immediately,
Unknown: we're going to have all
the problems we had with
misinformation before this next
election cycle will be worse.
Adam Curry: Okay, so now we need
to do something about a problem
reaction
Unknown: and the need for us,
for the general public, I think
to be more discriminating
consumers of news and
information, the need for us to
over time develop technologies
create watermarks or digital
fingerprints so we know what is
true and what is not true
Adam Curry: digital
fingerprints. That sounds like a
digital ID to me. Yeah.
Unknown: He's talking about
Adam Curry: Well, no, he doesn't
but
John C Dvorak: then there's so
much on Biden that they, you
know, just him. No, I have tons
of clips.
Adam Curry: Let's do some but I
have let's do some Biden AI.
Unknown: Well, I do have a bite.
You have a Biden AI? No.
Adam Curry: You said you got
clips. I mean, Biden. I
John C Dvorak: got clips but I
also have one Biden AI.
Adam Curry: No, I have no Biden
AI.
John C Dvorak: Oh, okay. Well, I
have this. I figured that, you
know, he's bringing up these.
This is a I think it's a salvo.
So he sends it out. You know,
we're gonna have a lot of fake
stuff going on. But no, but the
Biden stuff is all real. It's
real. There is a fake one that
they tried to push out which
it's kind of funny. It's Biden
and Trump debating this is the
try Biden column Biden clear
caulk fake caucus so massive. I
mean, it is possibly the biggest
cock I have ever seen it.
Unknown: respond very quickly,
and then I'll get to my
question.
Why did he he's been saying this
caucus massive for four years.
Show us just show us stop
playing around.
Adam Curry: It's lewd, it's
lewd. Therefore. It's just a
borderline but man. He got me
with that one. I had not heard
that one. You were familiar? No,
I'm not familiar with the
cockfight? No, that is massive.
Yeah, you should stop. Just stop
talking about it. Show it
already. Yeah. This is This is
America. This is what we do with
technology. We're not gonna
we're not going to try and fake
you. We're gonna make you laugh.
And no one's falling for it. Oh,
oh, man. I think they're really
talking about that. What do you
think? I won 12 Second Biden AI
clip because this obviously
couldn't be an actual President
of the United States talking
here about pistols and pistol
braces
Unknown: made it harder for
people to buy stabilized brace
braces, put a pistol on a brace
turns into a gun. Makes it more
you can have a higher caliber
weapon or a higher caliber
bullet coming out of that gun.
Adam Curry: Okay, sorry for the
one channel.
John C Dvorak: It was let's do
some real Biden clip.
Adam Curry: That was a real
clip.
Unknown: Oh, that was him
actually. Yeah. What an idiot.
He
Adam Curry: says if you put a
brace on a pistol, it turns
Unknown: into more caliber guns
into
Adam Curry: a real gun. And then
you get more caliber Higher,
higher caliber bullet coming out
of it.
John C Dvorak: All right. Well,
I got it. But I've got a bunch
of clips. Here we go. I don't do
these as much as I used to
Adam Curry: when we've been
missing them. But seeing as the
president is out there on the
campaign trail, he's might as
well
John C Dvorak: bumbling and
fumbling his way through okay,
here's where you start with 8%.
Unknown: But you have we have
1000 billionaires in America
know the average tax rate they
pay? Eight AIGA is
Adam Curry: percent
8% AA 8% 1000 billion or eight e
IG H
Unknown: E IG H Wow.
Adam Curry: That's that's almost
respectable.
John C Dvorak: So here we go
with 54 states.
Unknown: And by the way, if they
do that means not a joke,
everybody. That's why we were
defeated in 2018. When they
tried to do we went to 54
states.
Adam Curry: Now, okay, so we've
been through this with Obama.
And Obama also had the, you
know, we have 58 states, but
that's when they somehow in
Washington DC. They, they take
the territories into account,
and then these and so normal for
them, they just for some reason,
they all wind up making this
mistake. It's weird, because I
think was 58 with Obama. Let me
see
Unknown: those 58 or 54
Adam Curry: I see Obama was at
54 I can't find anything on it.
John C Dvorak: Or let's go on.
Here's by OBO Biden.
Adam Curry: You said Joe Biden,
back in the groove? Yeah, baby.
Unknown: Indian OSHA. This
Adam Curry: is this classic.
Unknown: We're gonna win and
we're gonna help we have plans
to build a railroad from the
Pacific all the way across the
the notion we have plans to
build in in Angola one of the
largest solar plants in the
world. I can go on but I'm not
I'm going off script. I'm gonna
get in trouble.
Adam Curry: So it's going under
the under the Indian Ocean. This
is dynamite from
John C Dvorak: the Pacific.
How's that work? Okay, well,
Adam Curry: we understand what
he meant. So give him a break.
Yeah, he's old. Give him a
break. I mean, that
John C Dvorak: is just the last
clip that I want everyone out
there who likes to do songs you
know, put together into show
mixes. I don't know why we this
is not new. I don't know why we
never caught it before. I don't
remember it guys Sherwood
because it reminds me of the old
Obama. No, no, no. This is by
ain't doing it.
Unknown: As I said last week we
remain in the battle for the
soul of America, by the way all
right God love you. Let him go.
Let him go NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
NO NO NO NO NO don't let him go.
Everybody's entitled being an
idiot. Wow, no, everybody's
going.
Adam Curry: Oh man, let me do
that. That's a great sequence.
Oops sorry.
Unknown: No, no no no no no no
no no no no no don't let him go
I
Adam Curry: love I love that
that's perfect.
Unknown: NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
NO NO NO NO don't let him go.
I've been watching you No no,
no, no, no, no no. Go I love
Adam Curry: that kind of works.
Love it. Oh man. Good one it
good. That is
Unknown: a gem.
Adam Curry: That its beauty. And
he got it's literally he got
stuck.
Unknown: He is stuck
Adam Curry: not an n n n n n n
and you know like a digital it
was digital digital glitch. It
was glitching Biden to the
Eidelman I think glitch Biden
glitch Gaiden glitch there you
go by this was years not
John C Dvorak: as good but it
says he does say instead of
trends. Charter says transistor
Americans
Adam Curry: Oh, no, no, no,
that's impossible. He did not
say transistor Americans. Tell
me that's not true. As Commander
Unknown: in Chief, I was proud
to have ended the ban on
transistor Americans,
Adam Curry: though he says trans
jester
John C Dvorak: this transistor
and then he corrects himself
hold
Unknown: on as commander in
chief I was proud of and as the
ban on transistor Americans
transgender Americans serving
that's the that's the same when
we played as commander in chief.
I was proud to have ended the
ban on transgender Americans
trans gesture
now I'm hearing treads joke
Okay, no.
Adam Curry: Trans jester is a
hit.
John C Dvorak: Okay, let's go to
the left does the last of the
Biden was that I do have a
couple of to dos that I like to
interject. Kudo does this do?
Adam Curry: Well, yeah, he's
it's the same programming.
John C Dvorak: So let's go with
this. stump speech, which is
just a mess.
Unknown: You know what I get
when I were talking about the
fentanyl the border and all
that. I speak to the president
Mexico. Will you stop sending
guns to us? We are sending
dangerous weapons, particularly
solos to Mexico, New Mexico, are
asking us please stop it. Cut it
off at the border. But in God's
name, we could be coming if we
don't do this. Now as some of
you know, I'd usually come down
and say hi to Oliver. They tell
me there's a storm I'll
Adam Curry: just stop here for a
second. But the government has
been sending weapons to Mexico
it was called Fast and Furious.
Was it not?
Unknown: Yeah, hello.
Adam Curry: That's exactly what
we do. And so now does his Biden
not read in on this?
John C Dvorak: I don't think
Biden has been read in on it.
Adam Curry: I guess it didn't
stop Wow, what did
Unknown: God's name we becoming
if we don't do this now, Shana?
You know, I'd usually come down
and say Hi, Doctor. They tell me
there's a storm coming in. Is
that right? Is still Is that
still the deal? That's the truth
now don't make a lie. As that
said that scene in John Wayne
movie don't make me a dog face
why and pony soldier All right.
God save the Queen man.
Adam Curry: Let's let's listen
to his OG of that.
Unknown: Number one. I was a
Democratic caucus. Member of
caucus no you haven't your lion
dog faced pony stores.
Adam Curry: That's why that's
the line lion dog faced pony
soldier. He can't even get that
out anymore. Let's Let's do it
again.
Unknown: Is that right is still
Is that still the deal? That's
the truth. Now don't make a lie.
As that said that scene in John
Wayne movie. Don't make me a dog
face. Why and ponies? Oh,
Adam Curry: no, I got it. No, he
did it. He did it.
Unknown: All right. God save the
Queen man.
Adam Curry: What was that about?
John C Dvorak: That that's the
big mystery God Save the Queen.
To hell is that about? Alright,
two more and we're done. We're
Adam Curry: just gonna I guess
everyone just ignores that in
the mainstream. Like didn't
really happen. I
John C Dvorak: know. None of
this ever happened. Okay. All
right. You have to listen to the
no agenda show to get a you know
a little few of these once in a
while.
Adam Curry: Yeah, to have to
have a chuckle.
John C Dvorak: God save the
Queen. Yes. Here's Trudeau on
masks.
Unknown: If people want to wear
a mask, that is okay. Because it
prevents you from breathing or
it's Speaking up turned moistly
on them.
Adam Curry: He said moistly a
big millennial. No, no. I can't
believe you said that. All
right. Yes. Good. Good.
Unknown: Here's him talking
about water bottle
water bottles out of water out
of when we have water bottles
out of a plastic. Sorry, away
from plastic towards paper. Like
drink box water bottle.
Adam Curry: Oh man. It's just
also sad. It's also sad. All
these people that just sad. Just
said I do have another Biden
this was I love this one and you
didn't get this one. Okay, okay,
we've mobilized
Unknown: the world's leading
emitters to help poor countries
deal with the impacts of climate
change. They call it the g7 the
bill back Biden bill back better
than we realize that got
confusing. Yeah, now we don't
call it that. We call it this.
Here's the bottom line. Look,
we're the ones that caused the
problem. The United States we
cleared all our land we did all
the things to make our make
things more easy for us to make
money.
Adam Curry: I don't know what
he's saying. But I just love
Unknown: like day hell is he
saying? I'd like to build back
Biden deal
with impact.
Adam Curry: What do we call it?
Unknown: They call it the g7 the
bill back Biden bill back better
Adam Curry: the bill back by
noon
what a narcissist can only think
of himself build back Biden.
Yeah, yeah. Well, this brings us
to unless you have more.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, definitely.
No, my Biden bit a little bit of
Adam Curry: AI news for you.
Since it's hot and everything.
Everything now is AI everything
is AI. I mean, I'm using a
program to play jingles AI man.
It's all AI Photoshop AI. Yeah,
see, I use Microsoft Word AI.
It's all AI.
Unknown: There are new rules at
the Grammys with the brave new
world of artificial intelligence
in mind. The Recording Academy
says only human creators are
eligible for an award. However,
not all AI is banned. A human
just has to contribute content
that is, quote, meaningful, and
relevant. However, that's
measured.
Adam Curry: I mean, it's just
blather now. Just black.
Everything I hear in Mute.
Everything you hear music, by
definition, has run through
algorithms processing
algorithms, if you're worried
called all AI, samplers, I mean,
this is it's so not new, but is
old. It's old news. But okay,
gives ABC a reason to do this
one, an
Unknown: eye opening survey
about artificial intelligence.
Also a little scary.
Some of the world's top CEOs
gathered at a summit and a
survey found 42% of them believe
that artificial intelligence
could destroy humanity in the
next five to 10 years. For some
of those same executives are
approving job cuts directly
related to using AI What can
possibly go wrong? Interesting,
because we'll have to wait and
see.
Adam Curry: I wish they would
say that about climate change.
Oh, five to 10 years, we're all
gonna die. Well, it gets we
don't have to worry about
climate change is always all AI
is going to eat the world. And
so we talked on the last show
about the European Union, and
that they are putting together
rules, rules against AI. And
what they're really talking
about is facial recognition.
Which I guess if you want to
call that AI Alright, call it
AI. Claire Daly. Luckily, she
stands up and she says, yeah,
it's unbelievable. We get into
my beat the real socialists we
love her. Oh, did you have this
clip? No, no. Claire gets up and
she talks about facial
recognition and she drops a
little bomb in there about
what's really happening. It's
exactly what we said would be
happening.
Unknown: AI is being sold to us
as the latest in a series of
groundbreaking technological
leaps. It'll make our lives
easier, it'll make the world a
better place. Well Don't believe
the hype. Like so much before us
AI will be used for surveillance
and control. It won't give us a
four day working week or longer
summer holidays. It won't solve
the climate crisis or
redistribute wealth. It won't
make public services better or
policing more effective, it will
be just more of the same, but
faster, and probably much worse
that judicial systems around the
world are exploring using AI and
judicial decision making should
scare the hell out of us that
Ukraine has been held up as a
living lab for AI warfare is
frightening. We should be
approaching this subject
cautiously, like every new
technology instead, we're far
too quick to follow industry,
governments Across Europe are
chomping at the bit to use
facial recognition to hell with
people's rights the Irish
government of MEP so we're in
coming in here saying they
disagree with a put their moving
legislation before a possible EU
ban. The EPP should be ashamed
of themselves for reneging on
the heart hours of negotiation.
Committee.
Adam Curry: There it is. There
it is. So while they're working
on a ban, they're moving in
legislation to use it. Yeah.
Surprise surprise, to use it
everywhere. And Mizel mentioned
this question has been emailed
to me so much I'm surprised that
no agenda producers I mean, they
know this stuff, but still they
won't email it to me so I will
mention this poor customer who
is all in on Amazon. He has the
ring doorbell he's got the door
locks he's got the Alexa he's
got all everything all connected
to Amazon. Particularly the the
smart one is the ring doorbell
which is a spy device, and the
locks. And I guess you can
program your ring doorbell was
something funny. You can have it
say funny stuff like hey, oh,
man, leave it there. You know,
maybe a Fred Sanford type voice
you can you know, whatever if
someone just rings the doorbell
with a package. And so a
delivery person delivered a
package and the doorbell he
thought the doorbell said
something that was racist. So he
reported it back to Amazon HQ.
And Amazon pulled the plug on
the guy's account and of course
locked him out of his house now
probably wouldn't let him turn
on his lights. And it's like,
ah, like don't do this people.
How many floors reminded
John C Dvorak: you know, of all
the people that are all you
know, wired to the gills with
you know, you can just drive by
drive by door opener you know,
there's all these kids you get a
one of these universal garage
door openers you just drive down
the street open everybody's
garage door. doll is it being
dependent on any of that stuff.
It's just asking for vandals to
just have a tough time in their
life.
Adam Curry: I love the troll
room correcting me it was the up
board doorbell ring. He said can
I help you? Okay, you get the
point. Here's another great
piece of AI. So someone
unleashed AI, a journalist
Joseph Martens and sent me an
email, I'm sure a I did this
forum. Joseph Martin's. My name
is Joseph Martens. I'm a
journalist with The Times News
Express, an online newspaper. I
was conducting research for an
article I wrote and came across
this link. And links to a no
agenda Show episode, I wrote an
article troubleshooting guide
for common laptop issues on the
New Times News expression, and
would like to link back to your
website as a resource for the
article. In return, I would
highly appreciate if you could
link add a link back to one of
my websites. You could get
additional publicity rank higher
on Google. So I go and take a
look. Well, what what he must
have he obviously got some
information from us. It's no
agenda Show episode 797 titled
laptop bomb. I mean, come on
people. This is not this is not
smart AI.
John C Dvorak: First of all,
first of all, having run a blog
for a decade. Yes, you've seen
this old you've seen these
requests. 10 years ago, I was
getting these notes that always
come from someone with a phony
baloney. They say we saw the
link Yeah. And it's some link
from a blog post that's five
years old that no one has ever
opened.
Adam Curry: It has gotten odd
has Google juice somehow I think
that well I think that's
John C Dvorak: they might you
know they did stem with a
scraper I don't know how they do
it. But what it is, but it's a
form letter. It's not AI
generated by any means.
Adam Curry: I was just formed
letter. Thanks, John. I was just
kind of joking around and being
okay, well,
John C Dvorak: I'm just saying
these guys keep doing this. And
it's like it when you respond to
them. Which I stupidly did once
again, you responded to nothing
because nobody home it's like,
Don't kid yourself. They just
want to look at for free Linksys
I don't know if this is a trick.
I don't know Does anyone do this
but buy into this bullcrap? You
didn't
Adam Curry: know of course not.
I just thought it was anybody
ever thought was interesting
that they literally searched for
laptop and then didn't even see
the laptop bomb. That seems like
it wouldn't go along with
troubleshooting your laptop
story.
John C Dvorak: Tim and Joe
saying you'll do it for 500
bucks
Adam Curry: that's what I would
say I still have diaries.com and
do ya about twice a week? I'll
get an email I'm highly
interested in buying this domain
name well, no one's ever no
one's ever taken me up on my my
price. A surprise one one
bitcoin which I think is decent.
One Bitcoin. That's all I ask.
John C Dvorak: Do you know that
art.com I learned this when I
was doing silicone spin. Because
the guy bone do their art.com
sold for a million dollars.
Well, that's nothing. That's
nothing in the or Well, no, it's
true. It's not it's there are
during the heyday of domain name
sales before they came up with
all these new domain domain
domain names. They were selling
for a million dollars and
associate your price of a one
Bitcoin for diaries.com is
reasonable.
Adam Curry: Cuban sold
broadcast.com for a billion.
Basically. That's what I mean. I
mean, I've been offered a lot
for curry.com. But no one Navid
I can't sell that my whole life
is it's my identity man.
Unknown: Who would put everyone
has a price?
Adam Curry: No, I don't think
so.
John C Dvorak: 10 million bucks.
Cash. Cash Money.
Adam Curry: You're my man. Come
on over here. Let's party. 10
million. No one's gonna spend
$10 million.
John C Dvorak: Would you do it
for 10 million cash money?
Adam Curry: Cash Money? Yeah,
Unknown: I guess I would. Okay,
there. Yeah. But it would
Adam Curry: I mean, five
wouldn't be enough.
Unknown: But 10 Yeah,
Adam Curry: I don't. That's when
my scruples drop away. Yeah, I
think I think I'd have to Yeah,
10 is a lot of money. I could
stop doing this podcast. You
probably wouldn't. That's how
dumb I am
John C Dvorak: to be doing a
podcast but you also have $10
million in the bank. Cash Money.
Adam Curry: Yeah, for what it's
worth for as long as it's still
worth 10 10 million. Just Just
watch it dwindle away. All
right, so just related to
Amazon. There's another strike
looming this one might be this
one might get interesting. And
of course, the story doesn't
explain what it's what the
problem is. But we all love our
UPS drivers and and they are
part of the Teamsters I believe
so this is this could be a
pretty big strike. Gil Guzman
Unknown: has been driving for
ups for 23 years did you vote to
authorize the strike? I did.
We're the best in the business
is how to get paid later. He's
one of 330,000 employees who
want wage increases and more
full time jobs.
We work hard, we work hard for
our job. We work hard for this
company. We move this country
around.
UPS is the biggest shipping
company in the US around 6% of
the nation's gross domestic
product passes through its brown
vans, nationwide, drivers
deliver nearly 90 million
packages every single day. And a
halt in operations would cause
major supply chain disruptions.
The reason we call the chain is
that it's so integrated so any
strike, especially the long
lasting strike
could have a devastating effect.
Most of the summer, back to
schools and upcoming holidays,
the boom in online shopping
during the pandemic is still
going strong, resulting in
record profits for the company.
So why not share with your
employees? Drivers already won a
big concession this week when
UPS agreed to install air
conditioning in its trucks. If
you could say one thing to the
people who are in the
negotiating room, what would you
want them to know from you
just don't mess it up. You got
330,000 Strong UPS is that give
their blood sweat and tears for
this company and both sides this
is working out and make it
happen.
Now a strike is not a guarantee
at this point in the negotiation
and UPS says it is aligned with
its workers on many key issues
and it is committed to reaching
a deal before this contract
expires at the end of July.
Adam Curry: Now, this is a very
shallow report. I dove into
this. I like UPS. I like the
guys and gals who drive ups,
just our air conditioning Come
on. Their whole system is built
around their open SR open truck.
These guys love it. They're not
looking for air conditioning.
But they had a vote on something
a year and a half ago I think
and even though 54% voted
against accepting the contract
at that point it was two years
ago. Somehow some technicality
in the rule said well, you've
got to have three quarters of
them have to be voting were some
some they pulled some fast one
on. But the real problem is most
of these packages that nowadays
are Amazon, Amazon packages. And
all of this is outsourced to UPS
and to FedEx when the United
States Postal Service which has
its own problems related to
technology and how how they're
you know people are not getting
paid anymore especially the
rural carriers many of them
listen to no agenda. But with
the UPS guys and gals, they
they're outsourcing a lot of
these Amazon packages to some
dude and a Honda Civic to
they're getting the gig economy
workers who get paid much less
you can get I think it's 21 or
$22 an hour when you start with
UPS including benefits you know,
retirement package, it was like
truly, the blue collar is like
Doug Hernan you know from King
of Queens like this. This was no
college needed you can drive was
a Good company, and now they're
just undercutting everybody. I
think if you're there for four
years you make $40 an hour, or
45 is a good job, comparatively
speaking. But they're what
they're not saying is that UPS
is just, you know, giving to
Uber drivers. Basically. That's
that's going to destroy these
jobs. I think.
John C Dvorak: We'll I haven't
looked into it. So I have no
idea what's really going on. We
have Amazon trucks all over the
place. Those things are a
plague.
Adam Curry: You're a plague get
rid of I'm bringing the Honda
Civics.
John C Dvorak: And those are all
operated by I think you've fed
UPS may own some of them. These
are the subcontractors that
nobody you've seen Amazon truck
and you say, well, it's some
guy. Independent guy bought a
truck? No. They tend to be part
of a team of trucks at some one
company, a small delivery
company that has bought 25
trucks. No a UPS trucks. No
Amazon.
Adam Curry: Oh, Amazon. Yeah.
Well, I think the future for
this upcoming for the Zoomer
generation is you will have a
Honda Civic. You will live in
your Honda Civic because you
can't afford to live anywhere
else. You'll be driving Uber
Uber Eats. Ups. You'll have your
your spatial computing with your
your apple vision Pro. That's
the future.
John C Dvorak: That's gonna be a
delivery van. You'll be happy.
Caught in the back.
Unknown: Exactly.
Adam Curry: I can totally see
that
John C Dvorak: dystopian view of
things, but yeah, it's elements
of that. Taking
Adam Curry: place. We're moving
that we're moving in that
direction, it seems seems clear.
Unknown: Bill Gates went to
China.
Adam Curry: Yeah, he did. He was
he looked really autistic.
Unknown: No, he is autistic.
Adam Curry: I know, but he
looked really autistic. Now in
that chair.
John C Dvorak: Though, here's
the reason why the NTD did
probably we'll have to say NTD
would do the best job reporting
on this. Oops, sorry. I had it.
And so let's start with the NTD
reports. And it goes into an
analysis. That's interesting.
Adam Curry: I'm looking for an
Unknown: okay gates in China.
One Microsoft's co founder Bill
Gates, that was Chinese leader
Xi Jinping on Friday. This comes
just one day after the Gates
Foundation pledged a $50 million
donation to a Chinese Medical
Research Institute. The meeting
took place at Beijing's
Diaoyutai state guesthouse, a
diplomatic complex used to house
foreign dignitaries. She called
gates an old friend saying that
he was happy to see the business
magnate after three years. Gates
on the same token said he was
honored to meet with Xi, adding
that there's a lot of important
topics to discuss. The Chinese
medical research institute
that's receiving the grant is
called a GH DDI. It was first
established in 2016. With the
help of the Gates Foundation,
China's elite Qi university and
the city of Beijing. The $50
million from the Bill and
Melinda Gates Foundation is
slated to bolster its drug
research capacity over the next
five years. Gates his connection
with Beijing goes beyond GH DDI.
Microsoft has been in China for
more than 30 years, and has a
large research center there. Its
web portal Bing is the only
China accessible foreign search
engine. As the regime tightens
its grip on the nation's digital
sector beings search results on
a number of sensitive topics
have been censored cybersecurity
Research Group Citizen Lab found
that Bing also restricts certain
Chinese search results for us
users
Adam Curry: not to be confused
with being at.io.
John C Dvorak: No, not to be
confused. no censorship there.
So I didn't know that being
censored is stuff that you if
you let us being here in the US
of A you're gonna get you're not
gonna get your Chinese
information very accurately.
Adam Curry: Well, that doesn't
surprise me. I don't trust any
search engine.
Unknown: surprises me. Or two,
Adam Curry: do you use Bing
regularly?
Unknown: I use DuckDuckGo.
Worth noting it's rare for a
Chinese leader to meet with a
foreign business leader. Just
recently Apple CEO Tim Cook, and
Tesla CEO Elon Musk both visited
China, but Gates is the only one
who got to meet with Xi Jinping.
Adam Curry: Yeah, yeah, that's
interesting. No, go. Didn't
McCrone. McCrone got to meet
him. McCrone
Unknown: but the point was they
are business leaders don't get
to meet with him. I agree.
Crozet leaders McCrone Yeah.
Macron is just a crony so
interesting. Tim Cook got
stiffed and so didn't Elon Elon
John C Dvorak: today brought
this guy on who do wrote the
book wireless wars, who's an
analyst and he goes off to
discuss interpretations of
what's really going on with
gates and the fact that it
appears that a geisha selling
out the United States is you
want me to go to China to clip
four clips, three clips, three
giant, I put four is got
wireless words that to remove I
forgot to put on a clip to
remind me who to say this guy
was alright, so here we go. So
Bill
Unknown: Gates is in China, he
met with Xi Jinping, who
actually called him his first
American friend that he met in
Beijing. What do you make of
this close relationship, though?
A friend of China is a term that
is not actually complimentary
term a friend of China is
someone who is on board with
China's objectives and goals is
aligned is in harmony with what
China is trying to achieve when
it's just the ego stroking and
the alignment, which is probably
what the case is with Bill
Gates. They become a friend of
China. And it's, it's sad, it's
not necessarily a good thing,
because when you look at who
you're aligning yourself with,
it's really a friend of the CCP
is what they mean not a friend
to the Chinese people.
Adam Curry: By the way, duck,
duck go. They say we largely
source from Bing.
Unknown: Yeah, well, it's
probably true. But the word
largely as the CO operative.
Yeah. And
Adam Curry: the rest is
Wikipedia. Oh, that sounds good.
Unknown: I think they get a lot
of stuff from Google, even
though like I'm sure they
Adam Curry: do and TripAdvisor
music Max.
Okay, so he's friends with CCP.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, just as
gay. So let's go to clip four
when you wrap this.
Unknown: And on that note, it
seems China has been rolling out
this red carpet for businesses,
especially business leaders. We
saw Elon Musk there, Jamie Dimon
with JPMorgan Chase, and then
giving kind of the cold shoulder
to the White House. What do you
make of that kind of message
coming out of China?
It's kind of a funny thing. They
know, they've always known that
the businesses and capitalist
societies are there to make
profits. The government side is
just very different. It's not
pursuing even though commerce
wants growing markets for
American suppliers and good
markets. For vendors to America.
There's a very different agenda
for the for the government.
Adam Curry: Right, so how are
they going to square that with
with our I mean, the business of
America is business. How are
they going to square this saber
rattling? They're doing I have a
clip about China. I
John C Dvorak: will play that
clip. But for i But to answer
your question, I think that
they're not going to square it.
I think this situation is going
to worsen.
Adam Curry: That doesn't sound
like a smart idea. While this is
similar to something you played
on the last show, I think short.
Unknown: Overseas tonight a high
stakes diplomatic mission to
China for a Secretary of State
Antony Blinken. Blinken is
expected to meet with several
Chinese officials over the
weekend. He's the first
Secretary of State to make the
trip in five years. And
President Biden saying today
that he's hoping to meet with
China's President Xi soon is
coming amid escalating tensions
between the two countries.
Adam Curry: So the Biden
administration is just going to
let all these companies rot like
Nah, we're just gonna do
whatever we need to do and screw
you with your business.
John C Dvorak: Well, this other
guy, this, this wireless
Adam Curry: wired wars guider,
John C Dvorak: he goes on about
the supply chain issues that are
going to happen. It was just,
it's hard to just all of a
sudden, I mean, theoretically,
you should just say, Well, screw
China, they're useless. I
stopped doing business with him.
But the problem is everything
for the last 25 or 30 years, has
got China components or this
made in China or no, we're not
pretending that we did it but
it's actually Chinese and we
brought it over. We don't I
mean, you know, the one of the
best things I've heard recently
is listening to Gavin Newsom.
Adam Curry: Sean Hannity.
John C Dvorak: On Hannity. Yeah.
Did you get Hannity? No, I don't
have any clips. I didn't want to
get clips of that. I Hannity was
flat footed. And Newsom was just
lording it over him and making
it sound like California is the
fastest growing juggernaut of a
state and he because he had all
these stats, you know,
statistics lie. So you is like
saying the crime rates in San
Francisco have gone way down.
And you can find stats
Adam Curry: where they have
because the businesses are all
gone. So how can just nothing
John C Dvorak: So they have so
you have this situation. And so
there's an element of denialism
about China, and how they pretty
much own the United States. And
so far as the supply chain is
concerned, and there's nothing
we can do about it, nothing
because we can't crank all this
stuff up, but we do. We I think
we've lost the skill sets that
the Chinese have been developing
the manufacturing that we, you
know, we don't, right, but
Adam Curry: I just don't
understand they're
John C Dvorak: learning about
emotions. They're not learning
how to be a machinist.
Adam Curry: So you're telling me
that all this saber rattling
that we're doing, which is
clearly going to hurt American
business is purely to keep the
power of the White House and
what I mean? What else? What
other reason is there for them
to do this? I can't think of
any, because it just it makes no
sense. No, is it all just ego?
John C Dvorak: And as to be, or
naivete we have to remember you
have a President of the United
States has never worked a day in
his life. He's never worked in a
factory. He's never worked on an
assembly line. He's never worked
as a carpenter. He wasn't
building houses. He wasn't in a
shag metal shop. You got Harry
wasn't even a paperboy from all
I can tell was a lifeguard
Adam Curry: he has hairy legs.
Yeah, he got beat up corn pop.
Well, actually, the ego thing
there may be something to it.
This is short clip. This is a
Korean John Claude Van Damme
Pierre being interviewed because
of course, that's what this is
how Saki ended when they start
doing interviews in there with
you know, with just as somehow
it's kind of sickening for the
press. What was it called? He
spoke tolls are we call them but
what is it
Unknown: press secretary press
secretary,
Adam Curry: secretary press
secretary to be doing interviews
about themselves. It's something
that just isn't something you
just don't do.
John C Dvorak: Maybe it's
exactly what you think, ego,
which is that this is the
strategy to get rid of her. I
mean, you said sock, he started
doing this again. Yeah, well,
okay. This might be the end for
I think she's already violated
the Hatch Act. We haven't talked
about that on the show. Explain
the Hatch Act. It says that, as
a government worker, you cannot
take part in partisan politics,
right. So in other words, if
you're working for the State
Department, you can start
stamping letters and get
reelected as Joe Biden and you
can add dressing envelopes and
sending them off while you're
working there. And she violated
the Hatch Act about I don't know
two or three weeks ago, when she
went off on Magga Republicans
met Megan Magadan, blah, blah.
She went on off on it and
somebody realized that this was
a violation of the Hass Hatch
Act she was doing.
Adam Curry: I have I have it
here. I have a clip he
Unknown: has been clear
democracy is under assault, and
we cannot pretend otherwise. The
President will continue to call
attention to the threat to
democracy, democratic integrity,
and to public safety posed by
those who deny the documented
truth about election results,
and those who seek to undermine
public faith in our system of
government. Unfortunately, we
have seen mega mega Republican
officials who don't believe in
the rule of law. They refuse to
accept the results of free and
fair elections.
Adam Curry: That was it that was
the violation of the Hatch Act,
John C Dvorak: then that was a
clear violation of the Hatch
Act. And she should have been
then they know it they don't
know what to do about it. They
should find her or fire her or
something should be done. But
again, you know, they don't know
what to do because oh god what
are we going to do is so you
can't you can't fire
Adam Curry: her she marks he
checks off too many boxes.
There's no way
John C Dvorak: she'd have to
hire a lesbian My God well,
black lesbian. Hello. Wait,
black lesbian is so rare, he or
she is her 21
Adam Curry: second to reply
about how well you'll hear it a
Unknown: year in this role.
There's been a couple of things
that I that has made me
incredibly proud many things
many things have made me
incredibly proud to be at that
podium during this historic
moment. Again, this is a
historic administration. I'm a
historic figure and I this
glossary everyday but this is
also the historic making
administration because of this
Adam Curry: president I'm a
historic person
John C Dvorak: that is
unprecedented okay, you get a
clip of the day for that.
Adam Curry: Oh, thank you if she
is a historic person everybody
John C Dvorak: unbelievable what
an ego test okay, so she's this
big historic person because
she's a black lesbian. Okay,
from Haiti or wherever the hell
she's from.
Adam Curry: Yes. Someone sent me
a
John C Dvorak: anyway by the way
she but she's in violation of
the Hatch Act she should be
terminated continue to terminate
terminate. Ah, terminate.
Adam Curry: Someone sent me a
passage from 1984. The who
doesn't know it the book by
George Orwell. I think a lot of
people know the book, but I
don't know how many people
actually read it.
John C Dvorak: Great book to
read, I would recommend reading
it. I would say there's a number
of books. I would say reading
that in the Huxley book is
another book you must read. Yes.
Which is what is it called? I
can't even remember. Brave New
World. Brave New World is much
read 1984 is a must must Neopost
Adam Curry: amusing ourselves to
death would also be another one.
It's all in no agenda book.
club.com I think is where we
have all of these.
John C Dvorak: And I would say
if you don't want to read the
1984 book, The movie is good
too. In fact, the movie may be
creepier.
Adam Curry: From the book, the
protagonist Winston Smith says
they had played a similar trick
with the instinct of parenthood,
the family could not actually be
abolished, and indeed, people
were encouraged to be fond of
their children in almost the old
fashioned way. The children on
the other hand, were
systematically turned against
their parents and taught to spy
on them and report their
deviations. The family had
become an effect an extension of
the thought police pronouns
anyone, the antagonist O'Brien.
We have cut the links between
child and parent and between man
and man and between man and
woman, no one dares trust a wife
or child or friend any longer,
but in the future, there will be
no wives and no friends children
will be taken from their mothers
at birth, as one takes eggs from
a hen the sex instincts will be
eradicated. Procreation will be
an annual formality like the
renewal of a ration card. We
shall abolish the orgasm. Our
neurologists are working on it
right now. Telo Elam, there will
be no loyalty except loyalty
towards the party. There'll be
no love except the love of Big
Brother. There'll be no laughter
except the laugh of triumph over
a defeated enemy Maga. There
will be no art no literature, no
science, when we are omnipotent,
we shall have no more need of
science, there'll be no
distinction between beauty and
ugliness. Sound familiar? Now
let's get to work on these
children really early and
disrupt the relationship between
the children and the parents.
Let's get on with the baby bears
on the Cartoon Network. This is
for young kids. Jared Winnie Hey
there, Ryan the great Winifred
she extraordinaire
Unknown: are also the
new addition box they use they
them pronouns
Adam Curry: they give
exceptionally good quiche box
they then pronouns This is not
okay.
John C Dvorak: No, that's good.
There's another good clip not
Adam Curry: okay. And so, you
know, states are cracking down
on it Florida. It's certainly
just for young children. There's
parents should have the right to
determine what their what their
what their children are learning
in school. This is of course not
the the Scholastic opinion and
teachers are quitting now. This
is a report from NBC
Unknown: on the same day that
high school English teacher
Emily Ramseur won an award for
being an outstanding Texas
educator. She stood in front of
the grapevine Colleyville school
district to tell them why she
was among dozens of staff
members resigning this year.
This community has continuously
harassed me for the past few
years, to the point that there
were days I didn't even want to
be alive anymore, much less be a
teacher. So I'm going to listen
to what I am hearing from this
community. Which is that y'all
don't want people like me,
people who might be gay to teach
here.
School districts across the
country are facing a teacher
shortage fueled by burnout and
low pay. But in Texas, Many
blame politics. Last year rams
those districts saw a 40% jump
in resignations and retirements.
After new conservative school
board members pushed to remove
hundreds of books and restrict
lessons about race and LGBTQ
identities.
I've taught these kids for years
to write and to grow their
voices. And I'm not going to let
my actions say something
different.
Ramseur who identifies as queer,
so she was asked to change some
of her lessons and to remove
classroom artwork and rainbow
stickers.
Adam Curry: So what's sad about
this type of reporting is the
way they bring it is they they
make it sound like there's
hatred against
John C Dvorak: your sympathetic
toward the poor, almost gay
teacher and whatever pain area
whatever she is, who's crying on
the screen. He's crying on the
on the set. And, yeah, that's
the way it's presented. It's
slanted presentation. Classic
news. Yeah. Which has a
perspective.
Adam Curry: They bring in
politics, of course, and this is
the this is the poison she
John C Dvorak: had to take her
stickers down on her. And they
banned and the book banning and
there was generalized So it
sounds like they're banning, you
know, everything.
Adam Curry: Yes. And so this is
political. And it's obvious. You
know, it's Texas and I talk
about laws. And what this hat
what happens is with the under
educated over socialized
individuals that the entire
world is full of this is not
just America, but it's really
prevalent here. You get, you get
people really believing that
they are hated. I mean, that's
what she said, you know, they,
they don't like people like me.
I don't think that's ever been
said. It's like, you know, she
actually said in that clip, I'm
here to teach the children had a
right and to grow their voices.
What No, you're not here to grow
their voices. I disagree. That
that's not what you're here to
do. But okay, grow your voices.
They just it turns into the
second grader. It turns into the
need, it turns into this
horrible hatred for each other.
And I mean, this clip on C span
Washington journal really
exemplifies poor news reporting,
or I shouldn't say poor it's
actually excellent news. What
they're doing on in the news,
which is, in general, mainstream
news is run by the Democrat
Party of America. This is what
they want. This is how they want
to communicate it because it's
going to get more of America
sympathetic to vote Democrat. I
guess that's the idea. And this
is the result of it.
Unknown: This is Laura Kelly. I
believe in Galveston, Texas
independent Good morning.
In their morning, there, I'm
just gonna say that, you know,
if I'm gonna be straight with
you as I can be, I'm a lesbian
so it's gonna be kind of hard
but a wake up America, maybe
Republicans are falling to not
do it. They are Nazis. They're
calling for genocide on trans
people like myself. Every year
to hear in the morning who's
been calling so far has been
nothing but calls for my death.
They have listening to good
college, but most of the
Republicans have been calling
from my desk. They are saying I
don't have a right now she does
the one corsets hit me over the
head with brown pants. He is a
Nazi and he does not want me
here. All right, well,
hold off on the Nazi references.
This is Steven.
Adam Curry: Finally, you know,
there's someone who is
convinced, convinced that
Republicans are Nazis, all of
them and they want this person
dead. And there's just no
evidence of this. There's no
evidence of it, but it's the way
the News brings it. Like the
battle brewing over trans
rights.
Unknown: This morning. Columbus
is preparing to welcome an
estimated 700,000 people to his
annual Pride Parade while a
battle is brewing just blocks
away at all at the Ohio State
House over the future of trans
rights fields. The Republican
controlled legislature is
considering a number of bills
impacting trans youth, one
called HB 68 would make it
illegal for doctors to provide
gender affirming care for trans
minors, including prescribing
puberty blockers or hormones.
That one definitely concerns me
considering I am actively on the
waiting list for getting puberty
blockers 11 year old Michael
ferrea has identified as a boy
for years now his parents say
puberty blockers are needed to
essentially allow him to pause
his development for now.
It makes me uncomfortable that I
having to go through feminine
puberty
I used to be 68 is to save
adolescents from
experimentation.
Republican state representative
Gary click is the primary
sponsor of this bill he also
touted would ban doctors from
performing gender reassignment
surgery on a minor something
opponents argue isn't happening
in Ohio.
I've done a lot of research I've
talked to a lot of professionals
on this our side gets ignored in
this we have the science is
on our side, but the American
Academy of Pediatrics now listen
Adam Curry: to this, listen to
their studies and tell me what
the common thing is about the
science the studies that they
have published
Unknown: a study finding
transgender teens who were given
puberty blockers experienced
superior mental health outcomes
compared to those who wanted the
medication but didn't receive
it. And a 2022 study concluded
transgender and non binary youth
with access to gender affirming
care had 60% lower odds of
moderate or severe depression.
I certainly wish them the best
and all of you I love these
kids. I care about these kids.
And I'm not trying to run
people's lives.
The furries have accepted that
HB 68 may become law. They say
that's why for many in the LGBTQ
community, this year's pride
celebration has turned into a
call to action,
although it will hurt the trans
community. It is not going to
make us D transition or just pop
out of existence. I guess they
aren't necessarily getting rid
of us.
Adam Curry: So there's another
child being abused by the media
to be a spokesperson and the
same message then no, we're not
going to disappear. They're not
going to get rid of us. We're
not just going to go away. These
are all very very hurtful.
messages this child has been
filled fed with. And all these
studies do not go back any
further than 2019. That's the
oldest they have. And the
science is clearly not settled
on the long term effects and and
just the words that are being
used battle, you know, Boch
right to existence. All this
stuff is bad. We have a number
of, of emails, which I'm not
going to read, I've cleared it
with. Well, with all of them to
put them in the show notes, I
would say specifically read
Alexa, who's trans producer of
the no agenda show in Chechnya,
but who went through the same
as, as now are our night who was
a dame who D transitioned. And
Alex is 40, you know, had to go
through almost three years, you
know, at older at an older age
to be able to do all the
transitioning the medical
transitioning, and agrees that
it's insane what is happening
right now. And it's clearly
happening for political reasons.
Another one from I think you
read this one, the boots on the
ground fleeing California to
save a child's life, you
probably read that one where
this mother single mom
completely went in all in the
program in Berkeley, and her and
her st. Her son became, was
identifying as a girl. And then
once they didn't want to accept
the vaccine into the life, they
were kicked out of the group,
they were no good anymore. So
they left left for a new
interesting coincidence. Yes.
You know, my body, right? Left
for New England. And once you
know, away from the therapists,
the the, the boy felt like a boy
again,
Unknown: and was like, Oh, he's
playing football. Yeah.
Adam Curry: So those are in the
show notes worth looking at just
as counterprogramming to all of
this. But there's something
happened that I need to
highlight because I give the
pivot people a lot of crap. And
and actually, this has nothing
to do with Kara Swisher, because
she is still a horrible person.
And I'm not going to play her
retort to this. But Scott,
Professor Galloway, who I just
in the last show called non
Ma'am, I have to say, I gotta
give him props. He may be the
canary in the coal mine, he may
be waking up, it seems like he
has his head screwed on right
when it comes to trans athletes,
and I need to play this, just to
balance out all the crap I give
them.
Unknown: So I think the tweet
was on the last step
by saying first of all, you're
not transphobic I thought this
was a stupid tweet, but you are
not transphobic. Go ahead.
Go ahead. Go ahead. Thanks.
Wow, all you transphobic
Adam Curry: that's, that's
exactly what she does. You know,
he sent out a tweet, and he got
a lot of crap for it. And she'll
just, here's my opinion, here's
my opinion. Here's my opinion.
Go ahead. I'm gonna play that
again. So you can hear it in
context. So
Unknown: I think the tweet was
on the last step
by saying first of all, you're
not transphobic I thought this
was a stupid tweet, but you are
not transphobic. Go ahead.
Thanks, I'm
calling you transphobic. That
was
a go to your transphobic. So
Austin, kill UPS a trans woman
one, the Belgian waffle race on
Saturday, that's 131 mile course
runs through the Blue Ridge
Mountains. And the number two
rider came in four and a half
minutes behind her. And when my
tweet was, and I hope it'll get
wrong, because obviously Twitter
isn't a place for nuance. I said
that unless Democrats condemn
trans women athletes competing
at elite at this elite level, it
will impair our ability to
advocate for transgender rights.
Adam Curry: Now, notice here, he
says Democrats just notice that
everything with these people is
politically motivated. He says
Democrats what he meant is
liberals. But he said Democrats
Unknown: and I think what's
happening here care is that in
an attempt to be empathetic, and
attempt to fight for the rights
of a group that has been
marginalized, and has been
persecuted. In my view, we have
kind of lost our minds and
ideologically the snake is
eating its own tail. Now, what
do I mean by that? If you think
about male physiology, I mean,
when it comes right down to is,
is if you look at most studies
to summarize them, men are
physically stronger. Women are
emotionally and mentally
stronger, even at a childhood
age, like girls, girls can
survive divorce, with much
better outcomes than boys. But
anyways, there's just no
comparison. And what we have
decided to do when we let people
who are born as males compete in
these races after they have gone
through puberty where you pour
testosterone over a bigger,
larger muscle mass and greater
bone density and skeletal
infrastructure. I think you end
up with the misogyny. And that
is that the entire world of
elite sports, all of the
camaraderie, all of the money,
all of the scholarships, all of
the relevance, all of the
accolades, the confidence, all
of these wonderful things are
about to be slowly but surely
sequestered to one group. And
that is people born with
penises, unless we have at a
certain level involving money,
and scholarships, unless we say,
look, a lot are either born with
a vagina, or you're going to
play or you're going to be in
another separate category. But
the notion that we are going to
start having people with pets
six foot five, and the wingspan
of Michael Phelps who by the way
still have a penis and testicles
compete in the NC to a swim
meet. This is nothing but us
going way too far in in a
misguided attempt to say to get
our bone a fetus around
progressiveness are hurting
women, and there needs to be
some nuance here.
Okay, I get that. Go ahead.
Can I anyways, I just can
immediately people start calling
you transphobic. They did. And
I'm like, this isn't transphobic
you know, who I'm advocating
for? Not only women, but I'm
advocating I believe our ability
to advocate for the LGBTQ
community and the transgender
community is diminished. Because
people people think, well, I
this hateful transgender
legislation is ridiculous and
stupid. But the Democrats have
lost their fucking minds.
Adam Curry: So yes, now the
thing that was I don't have the
clip for you, because it just I
can't. Kara Swisher then goes on
to say over eight minutes? Well,
the difference is, you're a
Democrat, the Republicans, they
really hate trans people, they
really hate the LGBT community.
These people are so brainwashed,
that they don't believe the
exact same words, you and I
could have both said this, who
would have said it more
succinctly. And shorter. We
could have said that. We said
John C Dvorak: we probably have
said it. Yeah. And years ago.
Adam Curry: It's like, this
makes no sense. You just can't
say that as someone who likes
free speech, or is branded as,
as a Republican or Magga. These
people are some of the most
bigoted people in the world. And
they really need to check
themselves, but good on
Professor Scott. He Prof. G. I'm
sorry. He, he at least sees that
this is not a good idea. I
thought that was a breakthrough.
Unknown: Yeah. It was a
breakthrough breakthrough.
Adam Curry: It was a
breakthrough. Totally. He had a
moment of clarity.
John C Dvorak: Hey, wait a
minute, moment of clarity is not
a breakthrough.
Adam Curry: Okay. Good point.
John C Dvorak: I mean, the logic
is there. I mean, I was
listening to care and TV news
the other day and they and one
of the news readers just blurted
out said, well, the transgender
athlete, they're saying it's
they have a distinctive
advantage over the female
athlete. Yeah. And then she's
just says there's no evidence of
this.
Adam Curry: Yeah. They're so
afraid of losing their job.
That's it. They're just afraid.
But I don't
John C Dvorak: think so. I
disagree with that. Again, I've
done this before with you on
this particular topic. Where
it's not fear, it's sincerity.
Well, they really believe this
stuff.
Adam Curry: Yeah. Well, okay. I
think that if in fact, there was
a
John C Dvorak: Kara's not
insincere.
Adam Curry: You're right. You're
right. She's
Unknown: not she's not afraid.
That's for sure. No, she's
Adam Curry: not well, she got
money from her divorce. So she
got no problem there. It was,
was that there was some study.
It's true.
Unknown: Something you always
throw that little nut della jibe
in their ear.
Adam Curry: When you have money.
Like you know, hey, let me sell
curry.com for $10 million. Watch
me go off the rails. Watch this
show change
Unknown: the show. It'd be
great.
Adam Curry: Insulting everybody.
I have no clips but lots of
stories in the UK. Headlines
headlines headlines. Fresh
warning of deadly new virus
surfaces. virus which kills one
person a second likely to be
heading to UK scientists say
urgent warning after outbreak of
one of the world's deadliest
diseases after man dies in
Namibia and my favorite new
deadly virus is highly likely to
arrive in the UK in latest
climate change warning. So now
that headline, oh, there's your
connection. That's the one I
like. So I'm like, What is this?
Yeah, so I'll bring up this this
is from the mirror, which is
another fine, outstanding.
Unknown: Another fine standing
publication be proud
Adam Curry: of deadly virus that
is killing nearly 50% of
patients is highly likely.
That's that's your climate
change language to arrive in the
UK, along with other illnesses
spread by insects, which are
marching north due to climate
change.
John C Dvorak: The six are
marching north from climate
change
Adam Curry: across across the
English Channel even they're
just marching north. They're
swimming, they're swimming.
John C Dvorak: It's a good movie
for people out there want to see
something like this is also was
a radio play. I think it's a
Roger, I think it's read you
read your Kipling. Rudyard
Kipling. Yes. Called the naked
the movies called the naked
jungle. Net is about. It's a
great movie. It's about these
giant army ants marching north,
eating everything in their way.
It's tyrannized film.
Adam Curry: Well, they're
marching north towards the UK
and they're going to swim,
apparently, now
John C Dvorak: as army ants.
Yeah, they did. They had to swim
across the rivers.
Adam Curry: Well, the English
Channel is not just a river.
Hey, get there. Let me tell you
about this, about this disease.
It has a great name. They go
through
John C Dvorak: the channel that
they can just crawl crawl
across. They go through the
channel. There you go. Yeah, no,
the who's gonna stop them.
Adam Curry: This is cchf cchf.
It has a snappy acronym. And it
has everything you want in
there. It's the Crimean Congo
hemorrhagic fever. So you've got
a little bit of Russia in there,
you know, Crimea, Congo, Congo
John C Dvorak: hemorrhagic
fever, which is a bola and more
fans I guess we're not Marfan
says the other one Marburg,
Marburg, Marburg, Marburg are
fences with Lincoln
Adam Curry: Francis Marburg,
John C Dvorak: you got that. You
got Crimea, you got hemorrhagic
and Congo. Yep, you
Adam Curry: got it all. Wow,
symptoms. Great moniker.
symptoms may include fever,
muscle pains, headaches, and
John C Dvorak: it's caused by
bugs. Yes, the same bugs, maybe
Adam Curry: the cchf virus is
typically spread by tick bites,
or close contact with the blood
secretions, organs, or other
bodily fluids of infected
persons or animals. So, you
know, like it spreads like
monkey virus ticks. groups that
are at highest risk of infection
are farmers. And those who work
in slaughterhouses the virus can
also spread between people via
body fluids. Hello gays. You
Thought Monkey virus was
interesting. diagnosis can be
made by the
John C Dvorak: way you citing
gays in this case. heterosexual
couples have body photos. No,
Adam Curry: no monkey monkey pox
only went through between men
who have sex with men. Do I have
to remind you of this fact fact.
Monkey virus only spread between
men who have sex with men. Now
diagnosis can be made by
detecting antibodies. The virus
is RNA. Hmm. Get in there, or
viral proteins. So now of course
there are no FDA or who approved
therapeutics yet. No, no, no, we
can't have therapeutics. You
gotta get a vaccine. If there's
therapeutic you can't have it.
Well,
John C Dvorak: I'm getting my
things mixed up right
therapeutics are
Adam Curry: getting ahead of it
getting ahead of it. In the past
20 years, cch F outbreaks have
been reported in Eastern Europe,
particularly in the former
Soviet Union.
Unknown: Bastards back bastards
Civ Russians
Adam Curry: bastards. Yeah, this
one's got legs. I think it's got
legs. There's no clips yet, but
they're coming. They're coming.
Keep your eye on cchf. Jeff,
John C Dvorak: is when too many
letters.
Adam Curry: I feel good about
it. I do I feel good about this
one. It's one to many. I think
Crimean Congo hemorrhagic fever.
cchf I can just see it cchf Me
in Congo hemorrhagic fever.
BCCH.
Cch can probably do that. I like
it. I like it. It's got
everything in there. And you
bleed out through your butt and
your eyeballs.
John C Dvorak: Oh, yeah, that's
you have to bleed out through
your eyeballs Yeah,
Adam Curry: otherwise it's just
no good it's no good rather not
all right. All right. Do we have
the mean I've got Russia.
Unknown: I got some Ukraine. I
got low Ukraine. Yeah,
Adam Curry: let's do some I got
some Ukraine stuff too
John C Dvorak: that this is the
one that I only have two clips.
You can play the rest of them
plays out with yours but
Adam Curry: Whoa, you okay, what
happened there? Okay. Oh, we
have a podcaster down, John.
Hello. Oh, what happened here
something happened.
Unknown: Test test test.
Adam Curry: Yeah, yeah, let me
see.
Unknown: Okay this should be
good right here.
Adam Curry: Yes it's interesting
I already got a Darren O'Neal
sent his resume.
Unknown: Yeah
yeah that bastard I knew he
would
Adam Curry: like hey, man, I can
do the show as easy as
Unknown: that they're ready.
Adam Curry: All right, Ukraine
back to Ukraine clips. I'm glad
everything's okay. That always
scares me a little.
John C Dvorak: It's kind of
works in that it fell away. It
did. Yeah. But now I know that
you reset the clean feed right
away. Okay. I wish you wouldn't
have been off. I wouldn't have
been dead for two minutes
instead of
Adam Curry: 30 seconds. Sorry.
Well, it's all good. We're all
back to normal all systems.
John C Dvorak: Okay. This is
really annoying. And this is the
push to NATO leaders. Sorry,
talked a lot about your
Adam Curry: wish to NATO
Unknown: leaders from all 31
NATO member nations will hold
their annual summit next month
in Vilnius, Lithuania. Ahead of
that some members and Ukrainian
president Volodymyr Zelensky are
stepping up their calls for
Ukraine to join the military
alliance. Ali Rogen has the
details.
Poland's parliament today passed
a resolution supporting
Ukraine's admission to NATO.
Ukraine in NATO was a
contentious issue long before
the war began. And it has only
accelerated since then. We have
now our own debate on when or
whether Ukraine should be
invited into NATO. Charles
caption served on the National
Security Council staff during
the Obama and Clinton
administrations. He's now a
senior fellow at the Council on
Foreign Relations and a
Georgetown University professor
and Evelyn Farkas was Deputy
Assistant Secretary of Defense
for Russia, Ukraine and Eurasia.
During the Obama administration.
She's now the executive director
of the McCain institute at
Arizona State University.
Welcome back to you both.
Evelyn. I want to begin with you
you support Ukraine becoming a
member of NATO now,
why Ukraine has earned it. First
of all, we gave you credit in a
political agreement back when
the international community took
their nuclear weapons that we
would defend them if they were
invaded. And the countries that
were supposed to defend Ukraine
did defend Ukraine to some
extent, but not to the extent
that Ukraine expected since then
Ukraine has been fighting to
uphold the international order
the principles of the sanctity
of borders, which Russia has
violated repeatedly. And frankly
speaking, they are now the most
capable, the largest, most in
NATO interoperable, battle
hardened, capable military on
the European continent. So from
a military perspective, they've
also earned it,
Adam Curry: they've earned it,
it's fair and square, they
deserve it.
John C Dvorak: A couple of
things in there. First of all,
she's with the McCain institute
at ASU. Yeah,
Adam Curry: danger Will Robinson
McCain, who went in there with
Vicki and with Lindy Hop, Lady
G. Graham. And now cookies, the
whole my Don group 2014. They
they they made a coup happen.
John C Dvorak: And secondly, the
this idea that these the nuclear
weapons that were taken out of
Ukraine, were Russian there
weren't they weren't made
daring. Yes, there were a bunch
of Russian nukes that were
positioned. They were position
there, they were not really
owned by Ukraine if we became a
sovereign nation, and so they
had to pull them out. They just
had to because it was be
dangerous as per proliferation
just to let these things exist.
And it had nothing to do with
them protecting themselves with
nukes. So this bullcrap, so
let's turn the tables and ask
the guy who's the Council on
Foreign Relations is your
Georgetown, Professor Bob about
the whole thing to get an
official the official take
because I think he would be the
one with a with a would be a
mouthpiece for the intelligence
groups, as opposed to this crazy
woman who just by the way, this
went on for the night to have
clips of and she just goes nuts
about Yeah, good. They earned
her we should go load him up and
we should we are gonna do
anything.
Adam Curry: Their meanings.
Unknown: All right, Charles, to
you. What's your response? Has
Ukraine earned it?
I'm all for helping Ukraine and
doing our best to enable Ukraine
to recover as much of its
territory as possible, hopefully
all of its territory. But I part
ways with Evelyn on the question
of whether NATO should open its
doors and offer membership to
Ukraine. At this point,
President Biden his NATO allies
are helping Ukraine defend
itself. But they're not going to
war to defend Ukraine, in part
because they've made a judgment
that they're not ready to see
NATO go to war with Russia, risk
World War Three over Ukraine.
And we need to keep in mind that
if NATO does admit Ukraine, and
a single bomb were to fall on
Keith, we would have a treaty
based obligation to go to war
with Russia. Secondly, I think
that we see that this is a war
that is going to go on for a
long time. We don't know how to
how it will end. We need to keep
open the prospect for some sort
of ceasefire, perhaps an RMS
system in which we might need
Russia to play ball much harder
to get them to play ball. Two
final reasons. One is there's no
consensus in NATO about mitting
Ukraine. NATO strongest suit
right now is its unity. And I
don't think we want to interject
this debate right before the
summit in July and go into that
summit with disunity.
Adam Curry: Ah, see the disunity
right there in the program?
John C Dvorak: Yeah, so you have
the official that's I consider
that the official opinion. Dan,
long time. So in other words,
there's no do not get in NATO at
the at this point. There's no
way and this war is going on
forever. So get your pocketbooks
out.
Adam Curry: Luckily, NPR is
going to give us a breakdown of
how the spring offensive is
going. Did you know it was well
underway? John's spring
offensive? Spring Offensive is
raucous
John C Dvorak: I understand yes,
the spring of it is well
underway and the Ukrainians are
kicking butt.
Adam Curry: Well. Listen to
this. Just the beginning. Like a
minute and a half of this report
from NPR. My buddy Dave Jones
sent this to me. Now just
imagine they're reporting on a
soccer match cranes plans for a
spring offensive as spring turns
to summer, where does this
effort stand?
Unknown: Well, are you at this
point, we're a little bit over a
week into it. It's limited
progress, very tough going. The
Russian troops are dug in, and
they're waiting with minefields
and trenches and airpower. Every
village is being contested. The
Ukrainians are trying to advance
along three separate lines, one
to the east, two to the
southeast, they're probably
doing best in this sort of
middle line. They're working
their way down a small river,
and they've taken several
villages along the way. Overall,
the Ukrainian military says
they've taken about roughly 40
square miles. So they are moving
forward. But it's a slow pace,
and they have not approached any
of the key towns or cities that
they'll need to really make this
a success. So Tom,
what are you hearing about the
additional support that might be
coming to Ukraine from the US?
Adam Curry: Yes, we're getting
the other teams update here.
John C Dvorak: So we have
they've taken 40 square miles.
Yes. 40
Adam Curry: miles of through the
middle line, the left line, the
Unknown: no towns is just 40
miles of empty fields. That's
Adam Curry: right. That's right.
And there's more coming 40 miles
of raw land, and it's all about
land.
Unknown: Okay. Yeah. All right,
to really make this a success.
Tommy,
Tom, what are you hearing that
might be coming to Ukraine from
the US and other allies.
As you noted, there was a
meeting in Brussels and the US
and its allies pledged more air
defense weapons. And that's of
course vital because Russia
continues to hammer Ukrainian
cities, or missiles for the
Patriot batteries and other
energy. So air defense systems,
also more tanks, armored
vehicles, shoulder fired
missiles now bringing it all
Russian tanks. And finally,
there are plans they announced
to train Ukrainian pilots on the
F 16. Or plane in Denmark and
the Netherlands sometime this
summer, but no word on when and
how many of the aircraft will
actually get to Ukraine. And
that has annoyed Ukrainian
officials and some defense
analysts who said we need these
planes much earlier. Now you're
looking at probably sometime
next year
Adam Curry: defense analysts.
They're angry because we can't
get new gear fast enough. We
need to spend spend spend. So
yeah, this is going to be a very
long spending process. I think
you're completely right. You can
call it a war, clearly about 40
miles of turf.
Unknown: But it's your turf. 40
miles a golf course.
Adam Curry: It's just here to
empty our pockets into the
military industrial complex and
enter the spy spook master
Richard Engel who has an
exclusive one on one one on one
John C Dvorak: Yeah, this guy
was on you know I've been seeing
him on and off I wish I had some
clips but yeah, I'm glad you got
him
Adam Curry: actually. No, we
have clip custodians. We have
clip collectors this clip
collector Steve I think and he
got two clips of the one on one
Unknown: Ukraine tonight is in a
full scale fight to take back
Russian
Adam Curry: listen to the sound
effects are groovy Hey, this is
how you do report people put
some machine gunfire in Ukraine
tonight
Unknown: is in a full scale
fight to take back Russian
occupied land.
John C Dvorak: Does he have a
gun battery behind him? What's
the deal? Yeah, this
Adam Curry: is what you do is
called B roll.
Unknown: pivotal moment for our
interview with Ukrainian
president Volodymyr Zelensky. At
the presidential compound didn t
and we are now in the early days
of this long anticipated counter
offensive. Yes.
Adam Curry: How's it going?
Yeah, no more than once. She
did. Well, wait a minute. Wait a
minute. I thought it was an
offensive. I thought was the
spring offense. Is it always
been counter offensive? Did I
did I misunderstand that? You
mentioned it. I thought it was
the spring offensive. Not
John C Dvorak: that I thought it
was offensive to but and we
could be wrong. We could better
but it could have been it kind
of offensive maybe a term they
used in there. All right. Well,
well.
Adam Curry: It's a pivotal
moment
Unknown: Ukrainian president
Volodymyr Zelensky at the
presidential compound didn t and
we are now in the early days of
this long anticipated counter
offensive. How's it going? Yeah,
no
more than once you did that
level, but I cannot give you all
the details. We're both
defensive and offensive actions.
That things look not bad. Not
bad, generally positive.
Adam Curry: Not Bad Things look
bad. I love how NBC got this. I
mean, surely they have better
translators on stuff. It seems
odd that you would choose this
guy but me it's just me. So
Unknown: defensive and offensive
actions is for a reason.
Adam Curry: Always. Everything's
for a reason. What do you think?
Okay, well,
John C Dvorak: it would stylist.
Think about this because this
guy is dynamite. He's got the
deep accent. He sounds like some
sort of Boris guy from Akari.
He's cartoony is very cartoony
Adam Curry: things going bad,
bad, bad, bad. Would you like
some borscht? I'm sorry,
Unknown: that things look not
bad. I would say is generally
positive. But it's difficult,
oh, national declaration, our
heroic people, our troops, who
are now at the front of the
frontline might are facing very
tough resistance. You understand
why she pro rata because for
Russia to lose this campaign to
Ukraine. Separate I would say
actually means losing the world.
President Solinsky also had a
dire warning, he blamed Russia
for blowing up a dam which
Russia denies flooding dozens of
villages and tells us the next
Russian target is the Zapper
Reja nuclear power plant.
Russia does want to blow up the
station.
Why would they want to do that?
Adam Curry: Why? Why would they
want to do that? No. For the
same reason they blew up the
dam. Of course, that makes
nothing but sense, don't we?
Unknown: Because like with them,
they are not interested in
Ukraine. Securities like
Ukraine. visibility's they
always need instability here and
wants the role to pressure
Ukraine to stop the conflict
complete.
Adam Curry: So that is the
official CIA message as far as
I'm concerned.
John C Dvorak: Okay. Well, one
thing I want to mention, yes, I
have a second is that the
Russians? have long since taken
over that. That whole power
plant, yeah, the whole area is
theirs. And so they would be
blowing themselves up. If they
blew that up in there, and
they're maintaining it for a
reason, and they could if they
wanted to cause that some
Adam Curry: just turn it off.
They don't have to turn it off.
Turn it off.
John C Dvorak: So this is this
is Ukrainian operation of trying
to they want to attack it or
something to get to I don't know
what they're up to.
Adam Curry: Come on, John. But
okay, our guys Catholics in
action. Hello.
John C Dvorak: That's okay. Now,
I was thinking about this two
$70 billion dollars worth of
American money that's going over
there in one form or another,
and then being distributed to
Africa. Is it possible that the
CIA that there's not too much
complaining about this as let's
just say the CIA is the
middleman as the arms dealer to
sell the $70 billion worth of
arms or at least half of it?
Let's say 35 billion to Africa
or maybe 100 billion in gray
market sales and return that 100
billion to our coffers. So the
70 billion investment actually
is is is money well spent. It's
an investment a dream
Adam Curry: on that's all going
to the big guy 10% for the big
guy. What do we talk to our
coffers? What? What is that ever
happened? Oh, here America, we
just got we got some money back
for you. Unlikely. Here's the
second part of this. He says
Unknown: Russia is getting
desperate as more Western
military aid is coming. Today,
the US and other allies agreed
to train Ukrainian pilots to
operate F sixteens. But it's
still unclear when they'll
arrive. And how many you've been
talking about planes since day
one. I remember seeing you the
very early days of the war in
this building in the basement.
Now they're somewhere in the
pipeline,
John C Dvorak: waist up. What
was angled doing there in the
first place it very early days
in the basement, the very early
days in the basement as you who
was getting briefed
Adam Curry: it of course, and
how come they're not in the
basement anymore? My question.
Back to Back to Richard Engel
are our expert on the ground,
wasn't he? In the My Dawn as
well?
John C Dvorak: I don't remember
that he was or not, but
probably.
Unknown: I remember seeing you
the very early days of the war
in this building in the
basement. Now they're somewhere
in the pipeline. What has been
the effect of having weapons
rolled out like this given slice
by slice over time, though,
surely,
it's prolonged the war. Ducky,
the actual if we are supplied
with the machinery that is
currently held by our partners,
we will be the Foster.
We also asked about comments
from former President Trump and
Governor DeSantis questioning
American support for Ukraine.
President Solinsky invited both
to come here and said unless
Vladimir Putin is stopped in
this country, there'll be a
wider war with NATO.
Adam Curry: Ah, there it is.
Yes. So it doesn't really
matter. If they're in NATO or
not, they're coming. The
Russians are coming. The
Russians are coming. The
Russians are coming. The
Russians are coming. wider war,
it's going to be everywhere. Get
ready, Holland, your next. I
have. Unbelievable. So a
delegation of African nations
went to Ukraine and met with the
result that President Solinsky
Unknown: and they could do the
deal to get those arms down
there.
Adam Curry: Well, it was billed
as a mediation mission to get
some kind of peace because you
know, the Oh, that's right.
Yeah. Just began a couple of
weeks ago. Yeah, they haven't,
you know, they got some issues.
They can't they're there. People
can't eat wheat, they want their
wheat. They want their wheat
they can't eat. But I
Unknown: love sorghum. I love
Adam Curry: douchebag dog from
France. 24. Our favorite. He
says something here that is just
too funny when it comes to when
it comes to mainstream media,
and how they view things
particularly fairness and
neutrality. This kind of takes
the cake
Unknown: Victor, our
international affairs
commentator, Douglas Herbert,
hello to you. There are some
critics over this delegation.
Some say it's the wrong group.
And some say it's at the worst
time. Why is that?
Well, and you're right. The
critics have been unsparing and
the critics mainly obviously
Ukraine, but also in the US,
Europe, members of NATO. What
are they been saying the
criticism ranges from? This is a
laughingstock mediation, Mission
mediation and quotes to they
have absolutely no leverage
compared to the real global
powers such as China, which
could have some bearing on this
conflict if it really had the
will or the political will, to
they are not neutral. This is
where the criticism is. I'll
start with the we are not
neutral plank. You have six
nations taking part in this
mission. And what's interesting
is one more than a dozen African
nations failed to condemn the
Russian invasion. Early on early
in the days last year, UN
resolution. Four of the nations
on this mission abstained from
that resolution condemning
Russia's invasion. So you have
one of the biggest ones, if not
the biggest one in South Africa,
you have Senegal, you have the
Republic of Congo, and you have
Uganda, those four nations that
is four out of the six on this
team refused to vote to refuse
to vote abstain from condemning.
You do have to who were
represented in this delegation,
Egypt, in Zambia, and they did
vote to condemn Russia's
invasion. So you have this
neutrality problem here. A
delegation whose members are not
seen as neutral and at worst,
seen as beholden to Moscow for
various things from as you
mentioned, dependence on grain
and fertilizer in the goodwill
of leji Amir Putin,
Adam Curry: so help me
understand if there's a vote to
condemn Russia and you say, You
know what, I'm not going to
vote. Isn't that the definition
of being neutral?
Unknown: That's what neutrality
I would say
Adam Curry: that's what
neutrality is. But no in the in
the eyes of the of the
mainstream media. Okay. douche
bag dog that you're now a puppet
yeah
Unknown: be a Putin puppet and
Adam Curry: you're Vladimir
Putin puppet. The the whole idea
of neutrality is you know what
I'm not for or against anybody
in this. I'm neutral. That's
what Switzerland did now we're
neutral. Give us your money.
We're neutral. So this is it's
just so sad. Yeah. Wow. And then
of course, you know, we got to
throw some more nuke nuke fear
in
Unknown: there Latimer Putin's
new statements about nuclear
weapons, and his possible
response
if Ukraine receives NATO 16
fighter jets ABCDE and panel is
in Ukraine for us this morning
with the latest. Ian Good
Adam Curry: morning. Good
morning.
Unknown: Yeah, good morning
works that's right. The first
Russian tactical nukes have now
been deployed in Belarus to the
north of Ukraine but
their tactical
Adam Curry: he's just making it
up as you go tactical nukes I
don't even know what that means
anymore. Tech Whoa, would you
use open a can
John C Dvorak: i This is a
bottle of origin sparkling
water, who origin
Adam Curry: origin? And is it
basically just fizzy water
expensive with a nice label?
John C Dvorak: It's in a label
could be better. It's not as
fizzy as I like our back to the
tactical
Unknown: nukes truce to the
north of Ukraine. But it's also
effectively moving the weapons
onto the border of three NATO
countries as well Bluejeans
claiming that they'd only be
used in the event of a threat to
the Russian state. But remember,
he invaded Ukraine in the first
place because he falsely claimed
it was a threat to the Russian
state. This isn't the first time
of course, are these arrays now?
Throwing in the word falsely,
Adam Curry: yes, falsely falsely
claimed.
John C Dvorak: Why did they just
say claims become claims as a
threat? That's bad enough but
falsely claims, it's that means
he's insincere. Does that mean
he's insincere when he claims
something?
Adam Curry: Good point. I love
your linguistics
Unknown: Russian state. But
remember, he invaded Ukraine in
the first place because he
falsely claimed it was a threat
to the Russian state. This isn't
the first time of course, that
he's raised the specter of a
nuclear attack as a threat in
this war. And this deployment is
just the first wave with more to
come. The Biden administration
says it's closely monitoring the
situation, but for now says
there's no reason to adjust
America's nuclear posture.
Meanwhile, Ukraine's allies
preparing to start training
pilots on f 16 and other fighter
jets, which could be delivered
to Ukraine as early as late
summer. Russia's saying that it
will try to attack those
aircraft with Putin warning
there's a serious danger that
NATO could be pulled further
into the war. Meanwhile, Ukraine
is saying that it's made further
small advances in its counter
offensive. And this morning
though the British military the
British Ministry of Defence
assessing the Russia likely has
a temporary advantage in the
battles in the south especially
by increased use of air power in
particular attack helicopters.
Adam Curry: Oh attack
helicopters that's the next one
we need some helicopter action
what a scam this thing is such a
scam. You
Unknown: think what a scam?
Adam Curry: I mean? It's an op
and this is a scop is horrible.
Scam op. It's just it's just
more more more more more and
they're getting crappy F 16. We
know they're not getting the
good stuff. You have the older
f6 teens,
John C Dvorak: and they gotta be
taken out of service eventually.
Adam Curry: Yes, well, you have
to make room for the new ones
but new gear. Yeah, and all all
the defense ministers meeting in
Vilnius. Oh yes, the only US
Vilnius and Vilnius look at some
more money How do we get some
money out of there may a lot of
shoulder back slapping going on
there
Unknown: Ah don't know. All
right. Yeah, I'm in the Ukraine
for that is
Adam Curry: that is kind of the
way I do it. Wait, I have one
more. One more. There's, this is
a drone clip. It's always always
interesting to hear a drone clip
Unknown: tonight new details of
the dramatic moment Russian
soldier Ruslan Anat, in
surrenders on the battlefield to
a Ukrainian drone.
Adam Curry: The drone, yeah, he
surrendered to a drone.
Unknown: This video given to ABC
News by the Ukrainian army's
92nd brigade begins with a
different Russian soldier
running through the trenches
amid fierce fighting, they're
back moot last month, the drone
drops an explosive device just a
few feet away, knocking into the
ground and eventually killing
him. That's when annotating
emerge from a tunnel in the
trenches. realizing he's the
last man standing he used his
hand signals to surrender to the
drone shaking his head and
crossing his arms in an X. The
Ukrainians attach a note to the
drone in Russian saying
surrender follow the drone, and
it reads it and appears to a
crock of crap story. moving side
to side to signaling No he
won't. He makes a treacherous
walk half a mile across the open
battlefield over the bodies of
his fallen comrades. At one
point artillery fire narrowly
missing him. The Ukrainians
claiming it was rushing fire to
Close to Ukrainian trenches he
surrenders and is taken
prisoner. Yeah, and you can also
Nicolas the Ukrainians recording
this video. He says simply, I am
Anna Tim Ruslan Nikolayevich. A
soldier of the Russian army, the
drone saved my life today.
Adam Curry: Follow the drone
imagine
John C Dvorak: just take out his
hand gun and shoot the thing
Adam Curry: follow the drone
follow the drone Oh my goodness.
And how
John C Dvorak: did they wait
they wrote a note and then they
flew another drone out there to
deliver the note I don't get
that note part of the stories
Call
Adam Curry: of Duty seven or
something. I don't think this
just makes no sense. They put a
note on the drone follow the
drone and it rocked and rocked
back and forth. Okay, that's a
signal I gotta follow the drone.
John this is dumped this I'm
gonna say it again. wag the dog
doesn't real people dying, but
it's wag the dog. Well, this

counter offensive ladies and
gentlemen say hello to my friend

love having the trolls with us
though. Thank you for the almost
2000 trolls who hung out and are
sitting steady with us, we
appreciate that. You can be one
of them by going to troll
room.io. That's where you can
listen to the live stream, you
can hop into the chat room troll
room. Of course you couldn't you
should be ditching your modern
podcast app or ditching your
legacy podcast app and getting a
modern one at podcast apps.com.
A whole bunch of them now have
had this live feature included.
Pod verse podcast guru, podcast
addict fountain curio caster is
growing the format we've been
using for a humble 16 years is
now officially in heads. It's
probably like eight or nine
podcast apps now. And as I said,
podcast apps.com You can also
follow us at no agenda
social.com People seem to like
using no agenda, social account
for you know, for getting groups
together and organizing
themselves and doing stuff,
which I think is a very good
usage of it. I mean, I use it as
kind of as an inbox. But from
time to time, I'll just go to
the local timeline and you know,
once you get through the
inevitable 5000 Memes because
yeah, oh, we have a community
let me upload memes all day.
means
Unknown: a couple of them in the
newsletter once in a while.
Adam Curry: I'm not saying
they're not good, but it's like
it's there are producers out
there? Who muscly do Oh, that
must be 100 a day. Oh, I got
another good meme. Gotta share.
Unknown: Gotta share movie buddy
memes sting. Most of them are
pretty
Adam Curry: bad. But so from
time to time, that's a good one.
But I like it when people are
organizing and doing stuff
together. That's the kind of
stuff I like to see. Doesn't
matter. You can reach us from
any Mastodon account that does
not block us for our free
speech. That's what they call
it. There's over 400 that block
us were on the block list. Don't
even investigate just block us
just because someone said so.
And you can figure it out and
try it by searching for and
following Adam and Noah in the
social.com Jhansi Dvorak no
agenda social.com As part of our
value for value mission, which
is another reason why we're
still here is because we're
supported by the community, the
community. The producers, we
have no listeners, we only have
producers who support us with
time, talent and treasure and
that really is what I mean. I
was even this morning, you know,
we've got the no agenda stream,
and there's all kinds of you
know, shows 20 four hours a day,
seven days a week and Darren
O'Neill is the rock roll pre
show. And you know, we do switch
over and it's more professional
than an actual Radio Network.
Yeah, it was like Darren says
over to you boom, I jack in the
stream switches, Matt, and this
is all stuff that other people
have done for us. Because if we
had to pay for it, it would have
never happened ever. So we're
highly appreciative. All these
producers who help us out
sending a story sending us
clips, giving us their
expertise. Everybody's an expert
at something. And one of the
expertise is a number of people
have is creating artwork. And we
are one of the few shows that
has changing new artwork for
every single episode. And we'd
like to thank and highlight the
artist who does that for the
previous episode. That was
915 64 1564 episodes of this
show. We titled that one Zombie
Town. And the art came to us
from Dame Kenny Ben, which was
just a beautiful a beautiful

I appreciated that no one said
Unknown: Now it's very important
Adam Curry: to understand that
throughout the years, we've
created these no agenda meetups,
which initially was something
John and I would go to and there
would be a whole bunch of people
getting together and then you
know we we'd hang out and we do
this still do that from time to
time when appropriate when
applicable. Of course, you know,
it's very busy and We're old
now. It takes a little bit more
to get us out of the house. But
But what what happened is this
was such a popular idea. People
really needed that connection
amongst each other you had you
are a community, you're part of
no agenda nation, people have a
lot to discuss. And these days,
particularly after COVID It's
needed more and more you need a
place to go and hang out with
people. By the way, people have
also met at meetups and have
gone on to get married and have
kids. This is a great place just
to get out. You don't have to
worry about and you can discuss
anything. Nothing is on or off
the table. There's no condemning
of anything everybody can have
an opinion. It's all it's all
beautiful. It's very, very
special the way no agenda
meetups are run. And before you
knew it, we were doing that on
meetup.com and then Mimi was
running that and it was That's a
horrible service and then
insects. Now knights are Daniel
he created no agenda meetup.com

John C Dvorak: And I'm not on

interesting point that you

Adam Curry: Well, we haven't
seen it for a while the six was

John C Dvorak: are technically
read in on it we were informed
by a yes,
Adam Curry: yeah. Okay. informed
by a producer yes informed that
in order to keep their budgets
and their stature and their
quotas up the FBI every six
weeks needs to scam runs a scam
has to some have to have some
event happens so they still look
like they're cool and doing
stuff. And they usually take
some you know, mildly retarded
person or someone who's on drugs
and you know, just and Jack them
all up and then give him some
phony baloney stuff and then and
of course was social media got
even easier. Hey, man, post
this. Yeah, what are you going
to do? What are you going to do?
Come on post me send me a text
message put it on Insta.
Unknown: Tonight in court
filings. The FBI saying social
media accounts tied to a
Michigan man posted Nazi imagery
and sent messages about planning
a mass shooting at a synagogue
INVESTIGATORS SAY they received
a tip about those alleged
threats to a 19 year old Shawn
patella allegedly writing
expletive this world and
everything in it. I'm going to
start making plans soon. Just
gotta buy a few more things,
adding I won't be taken alive.
I'll make sure of that. Federal
agents safety Tella traded anti
semitic messages on Instagram
with a friend overseas writing I
just need a camera for streaming
and some more magazines don't
want to run out of mags and have
to reload one when FBI agents
searched the Telus home court
filings say they found unsecured
weapons including a 12 gauge
shotgun, a rifle a pistol
Adam Curry: unsecured weapons I
liked that that's a new offense
unsecured weapons when FBI used
John C Dvorak: in other words,
he had a shotgun without a
without a trigger lock on it. I
guess it wasn't in a safe which
you know who has those don't
want to run out of random
shotgun laying around and this
is now illegal and you're gonna
get thrown in the slammer,
Unknown: uh, traded anti semitic
messages on Instagram with a
friend overseas writing. I just
need a camera for streaming and
some more magazines don't want
to run out of mags and have to
reload one when FBI agents
searched the Telus home court
filings say they found unsecured
weapons including a 12 gauge
shotgun, a rifle, a pistol plus
tactical vests and a red and
white Nazi flag on his phone
agency. They found the name of a
Michigan synagogue and a date
March 15 2020 For the same month
and day as the New Zealand
mosque attack 18 that killed 51
people. Authorities say P Tella
admired the gunman who
specifically
have to have a threat. And also
ideally even a discussion or a
plan about how you're going to
carry it out.
The anti Defamation League says
anti semitic incidents spiked
36% between 2021 and 2020 to the
highest on record in close to 50
years and attorney for Paitilla
declined to comment but
investigators say he told them
he did not intend on following
through with the mass killings
he spoke about
denying it is fine, but there
may be a lot of countering
information to say well, that's
just not true.
Adam Curry: I love the Nazi flag
edition that's a new thing the
Nazi flag Yeah,
John C Dvorak: they didn't get
that right he said it was a it
was a white and red, white and
red. Where's the black?
Adam Curry: Yeah, that's not a
good flag.
John C Dvorak: There's no white
and red Nazi flag that I know
of.
Adam Curry: There's no white and
red in Nazi
John C Dvorak: Yep, so yeah,
that you know it was what would
call me was running the place it
was more creative.
Adam Curry: They had
John C Dvorak: better material
they did they really developed a
guys they had a better budget.
I'm not sure what's going on.
Adam Curry: It was just more
creative, though. Just more
creative, and it was more
Unknown: creative as lame. And I
know what are you gonna do? I'm
gonna do
Adam Curry: I think we should
honor the this man who passed
away
Unknown: tonight tributes
rolling in for Daniel Ellsberg,
the largely unknown Pentagon
analysts during the Vietnam War,
later labeled the most dangerous
man in America by Secretary of
State Henry Kissinger. All after
Ellsberg leaked the pentagon
papers to the New York Times and
later, the Washington Post 7000
secret government pages showing
the US government had been
misleading the public about the
growing scope of America's role
in Vietnam, and that the
military doubted its chances of
victory. I still
nothing. I did not commit
espionage. As indicated by the
Espionage Act.
It led to a landmark Supreme
Court decision on press freedom
that helped inspire a generation
of investigative journalists.
When the Nixon administration
typed newspapers from
publishing, the justices sided
with the press and criminal
charges against Ellsberg were
later thrown out by a judge,
citing in part a breaking by the
White House plumbers that
Ellsberg former psychiatrists
office, seen as a warm up to the
Watergate burglary that would
bring down President Nixon.
Adam Curry: Yeah, so much for
Julian Assange.
John C Dvorak: So I got to meet
Ellsberg. Oh, nice guy. I
chatted with him at some event
they had over here in San
Francisco. Larry Lessig brought
him into some Oh, Larry. Good
old good old Larry. Larry so I
don't have a clip but there was
a great Capehart and Brooks
little thing because they go on
and on about what a horrible
people Assange and Snowden
actually are and Ellsberg is
great. It was just a fun he's
really awesome switch gears
Adam Curry: interesting well,
that of course is because they
got a Republican out. You know,
Pentagon Papers screwed Nixon
somehow in the Andrea Mitchell
eludes
John C Dvorak: Yeah, well, kinda
was embarrassing us about all it
was It wasn't anything people
didn't know.
Adam Curry: Right? I have. Do
you have anything you want to
play us out with?
John C Dvorak: I can play us out
with a couple of clips from the
Iowa meet up that we were there
was actually this woman. She was
on PBS of all places. Iowa meet
up and no, it wasn't me. It was
a pollster. There's a meet up
going. Iowa has always meet up
she for the elections. And so
they had they have these. This
pollster was a famous Republican
pollster. She's talking to Trump
people. I have three clips, and
they're worth listening to.
They're number two.
Adam Curry: Now these mega Magaz
John C Dvorak: yep, I would say
they probably are Iowa pollster
PBS.
Unknown: JUDY WOODRUFF was in
Des Moines, Iowa yesterday for
her America at a crossroads
reporting project to listen in
on a couple of voter discussions
led by conservative pollster
Sarah Longwell since it was the
day of the Trump arraignment.
She made that the focus of the
first of two reports on what I
will Republicans are thinking
this was produced with our
friends at Iowa PBS.
Adam Curry: Yeah, we should
mention that I was an important
states because that always
indicates the the temperature of
the nation.
John C Dvorak: Well, these
Republicans are are kind of
interesting because they have
they seem to be very
knowledgeable what's going on
and they're very skeptical of
everything. They're more
skeptical than the average bear.
It seems to me. Here's clip to
Unknown: focus group I do with
two time Trump voters. They were
very clear and did date mints
actually made them want to
support Trump more? Which is
really consistent? I mean, we've
been asking people for several
months, you know, how are you?
How does it make you feel when
you hear that Trump's data does
it make you want to support more
support and last out of the 58
people that we've asked 26 of
them said, it makes them want to
support Donald Trump more. Only
two said less. They're a little
bit mixed on whether Trump is
exactly the right person to be
the person who comes back but
still after January 6, after the
indictments after everything,
still a lot of support for
Donald Trump
Adam Curry: must be Nazis
John C Dvorak: and they won it
anyway they go on and he talked
to all these people is very
interesting that people can dig
out from last Wednesday's PBS
NewsHour, they and then they had
a follow up on Thursday, I would
go back and watch that it's
online. Now. The one that got me
though, is this. This is the
last very short clip where they
she asked him specific questions
and then they raised their
hands. And I have to say that
this is to at least I was
shaking my head on this one
because it was like, wow,
Unknown: that deep seated
distrust extended to the 2020
election results and their
aftermath to
how many of you believe Joe
Biden was legitimately elected
president the United States How
many of you believe that the
election was stolen? Or rigged
in some way? Okay, everybody
100 frickin percent.
Everybody, everybody.
Adam Curry: Wow. Oh, that's
good. That's good. stolen,
stolen you election deniers,
Nazis, horrible people. Someone
sent me a note and said, after I
heard your comments about Trump
on the last episode, I'm
thinking you're a liberal.
Unknown: Let's just say I don't
Adam Curry: know. I know. You're
a liberal. I don't think so. Oh,
speaking of 100 frickin percent
great comedian. I wish I had his
name here on this clip, just 43
seconds. This is my pet peeve. I
wouldn't say 100% 100% as 100%
instead of saying absolutely
clearly all the way Definitely
spot on.
Unknown: Instead of Yes. Instead
of Yes. People often say they
don't say yes, but they say 100%
Like I asked a question and they
give me statistics
instead of yes, they give me the
percentage of esns mean it's
always it's always hungry.
Sometimes it's sounds stupid.
Like it sounds like like did you
did you pay taxes? Yeah. 100%
Well, I think you'll pay too
much. Thank you.
Adam Curry: I'm not the only one
noticing this insanity. Luckily.
