nation media assassination
episode 1616
0:10
Unknown: This is no agenda
0:13
Adam Curry: going trends Mao is
man broadcasting live from the
0:17
heart of the country here and
FEMA Region number six. Morning
0:21
everybody I'm Adam curry and
0:23
John C Dvorak: from Northern
Silicon Valley where we're all
0:25
worried about the TS MC Kill
Switch I'm Jessie
0:33
Adam Curry: kill the TSMC at
work he'll fridge
0:39
John C Dvorak: Yeah, I was
reading about this this morning
0:41
actually.
0:42
Adam Curry: Is this the thing on
cars?
0:44
John C Dvorak: No, no, it's this
is the the Taiwan semiconductor
0:48
manufacturing company who makes
90% go Yeah. How did this
0:52
happen? How did this happen? 90%
of all the high end chips are
0:56
made in Taiwan. And that and the
company that provides most of
1:00
the gear is again How did this
happen? Located in Holland?
1:06
Yeah. ASML ASML that well, they
make
1:11
Adam Curry: photography don't
they make the Lithgow they
1:13
John C Dvorak: make the altra
UVC. Yes. Yeah. Nobody else
1:17
seems to be able to do
1:18
Adam Curry: Yeah, I know. Go
Dutch. And
1:22
John C Dvorak: so the Dutch a
lot of people go Dutch so they
1:28
they have it was unknown to me
but they have a kill switch.
1:32
This
1:32
Adam Curry: I did not and all
their gear. The Dutch have a
1:35
kill switch.
1:36
John C Dvorak: Yeah. And so they
if China takes over the island,
1:41
all that gear that said TSMC
will remotely be ruined. Just
1:48
with real it's just Yeah. Isn't
that interesting?
1:51
Adam Curry: Where did you hear
this from?
1:53
John C Dvorak: It was in the
trades. I read it in the
1:55
Adam Curry: trade. Billboard
which which trade?
1:59
John C Dvorak: industry trade
manufacturing news,
2:02
Adam Curry: Hollywood Reporter
huh? Well, I know that the Dutch
2:05
that was a big focus, because
the Dutch government told ASML
2:11
like, Hey, you guys, you know
you can't x if we say you can't
2:14
export you can't export to
certain countries like China and
2:19
Russia. Yeah, exactly. And and
the company was like, well,
2:22
who's in charge here? And the
government went yeah, you but
2:27
the so they have a kill switch
on all the gear because they
2:30
exported the actual gear, right.
The
2:33
John C Dvorak: gear? Yes. We
export the gear and then Taiwan
2:37
has probably the lion's share of
it. And there's a backdoor I
2:42
guess they can just remotely
over the internet killed the
2:46
gear. I think it's the contract
that shouldn't shy
2:50
Adam Curry: away. Then the
Taiwan should disconnect their
2:53
gear from the internet. Hello,
2:56
John C Dvorak: I'm sure it's
part of the contract. They have
2:57
the gear in the first place so
you can be sure it's in there.
3:00
Adam Curry: I mean, everything
has a kill switch these days.
3:04
You know the cars have kill
switches. It's a kill switch
3:09
bonanza. Did you know they have
a new president in in Taiwan?
3:15
John C Dvorak: Yeah, this dude,
he's a pro independence guy.
3:18
Unknown: Here's the guy. New
precedent fly Ching tear
3:21
inherits not just the office,
but the intricate web of
3:24
challenges that comes with it.
Yes at home. He faces a
3:28
fractured parliament, with no
party holding a majority.
3:33
Internationally, he faces
significant challenges, even
3:37
though he has offered to meet Xi
Jinping for talks. It's also
3:40
pledged to defend the island
saying it's only the people who
3:45
can decide to Taiwan's future,
Beijing has repeatedly labeled
3:49
him a dangerous separatist
military, from China remains fit
3:55
presents. Even why Ally has been
preparing for Office. Beijing
3:59
has been ramping up drills in
the region as both a reminder of
4:03
their military might and
political intentions. You see
4:07
Adam Curry: those guys? I love
it when they when they fight in
4:09
Parliament. They knock on each
other in the head that throwing
4:12
them off chairs, dragging them
on the floor. All we get is the
4:16
John C Dvorak: Taiwanese
Parliament uses like a bloodbath
4:20
is great
4:20
Adam Curry: and all we get is
baby girl your eyelash hauls we
4:24
get like what it was what is
that version? Now those guys are
4:27
do it for real and bam. knock
you out saga. By the way,
4:31
where'd this guy go to school?
This Taiwanese president where
4:35
Harvard? The course he's a
stooge. He's one of our students
4:39
John C Dvorak: because he is
he's one of our stooges do quiz
4:44
and
4:45
Adam Curry: I will we're waiting
for Georgia to implode. I'm sure
4:48
we've got stooges all over that
place, as in Georgia as in the
4:51
country. Well,
4:52
John C Dvorak: that's been
amazing. Now we have today
4:54
there's the big meeting between
Biden and the guy who runs
4:59
Kenya. Yeah, Ruto and this is
like ridiculous like this is the
5:04
best we can do is Kenya, Kenya,
Kenya, whatever how you want to
5:08
pronounce
5:09
Adam Curry: Kenya have anything
of value for us. But
5:11
John C Dvorak: it must but I
think it's strategic more than
5:14
anything right in the middle
there. I went I was in Kenya.
5:18
Oh, here
5:19
Adam Curry: we go. Here we go
everybody drink
5:23
John C Dvorak: this is like this
is this country's is a nightmare
5:27
and and so we were headed to
South Africa, the family and
5:34
we're going to South Africa for
a meeting and we had a stopover
5:38
Adam Curry: for a meeting of the
ICC and what what does that
5:40
family do
5:42
John C Dvorak: for our family
meeting? So we're we stop in
5:45
Kenya and we're at the airport
waiting. And a couple of things
5:48
happen. One is I had a this was
a while ago, so I had these
5:51
cassettes to listen to and those
were stolen, which I made a fuss
5:55
about and I got him back. Ah,
stop.
5:59
Adam Curry: Stop, stop, stop,
stop. Now were these your disco
6:01
cassettes who stole them? What
happened?
6:06
John C Dvorak: They disappeared
from the overhead. We were out
6:09
of the plane for a minute for
some reason. And we're in the
6:12
airport and they got stolen and
I made a huge fuss about this
6:16
and I got them back. And the
guest says you shouldn't leave
6:19
anything in a when you take
these breaks into Africa because
6:22
that's like a year's salary for
somebody one audio cassette. I
6:26
said okay. But the thing that
part of the reason for this
6:30
story as you go you're sick.
We're sitting in the airport
6:33
lounge waiting for the to get
back on the plane. And the
6:38
Kenyan army foreign army guys
are in there shaking down
6:46
passengers and robbing them one
after the other. Wow. In the
6:50
airport.
6:50
Adam Curry: How did they shake
you down for your best event
6:52
ever
6:53
John C Dvorak: got to us before
we got back on the plane. You
6:57
know, my make eye contact was so
low kids. They were literally
7:02
stealing people's money at the
airport, the Kenyan army. I said
7:07
this is a terrible country. Wow.
And I was glad to get out of
7:10
there. But this was probably a
while ago. It was 30 years ago.
7:15
Yeah. Okay. Oh, it's changed.
7:17
Adam Curry: I think here the
place is great. Now. It's
7:20
changed. It's really shaped up a
lot is groovy now. Yes. All
7:24
right. So so that is Biden's
big. Foreign Policy Kenya.
7:29
John C Dvorak: Yes. I do have a
clip on this. I might. Kenya
7:33
Adam Curry: who has Kenya. Oh,
yes, you do. Oh, let's let's
7:36
chase away the audience right at
the top of the show. Good one
7:39
was
7:39
John C Dvorak: it's taking place
here in the US of A so let's see
7:42
what happens. The Biden
7:43
Unknown: administration is
rolling out the red carpet for
7:45
Kenya's president. Who's
beginning a three day state
7:48
visit to Washington. NPRs
Michele Kelemen reports.
7:52
Relations
7:52
with Kenya have gone from a
regional partnership to a global
7:56
one. According to National
Security Adviser Jake Sullivan.
7:59
This
8:00
is the first state visit by an
African Head of State in nearly
8:04
20 years. It is long overdue.
8:07
He says President Biden and
Kenyan President William Ruto
8:11
will announce new partnerships
and emerging technologies and
8:14
more on security cooperation.
That includes in Haiti, where
8:18
the US will be offering
logistics, to a Kenyan led
8:22
international force. The long
overdue mission is meant to
8:25
stabilize Haiti now wracked by
gang violence.
8:28
Adam Curry: It's about barbecue.
I see. By the way, I don't think
8:31
that's true. There was first in
20 years, there was a huge
8:35
African contingent I remember
this maybe 10 years ago.
8:38
Remember that all with all kinds
of African heads of state? heads
8:43
on sticks.
8:44
John C Dvorak: The best you can
do is 15 years ago, somebody
8:46
came over and said, Hello. So
this is about Kenya is going to
8:51
be bringing army over to take
care of Haiti. Yeah, but the way
8:57
they put it Oh, yeah. For for a
technology with a kid.
9:04
Adam Curry: Yeah, foam finger
number one. Hello. Hello, Haiti.
9:06
We're coming. We're coming for
our elites have wanted Haiti so
9:10
bad for so long. You know, let's
face it, the Clinton Foundation
9:14
messed it up. They were supposed
to have control of it. And then
9:19
somehow that slipped through
their fingers after they, after
9:23
they got the gold contracts and
took all the children. We
9:26
haven't forgotten. I
9:28
John C Dvorak: mean, that
potential for casinos,
9:30
especially in the north part of
the island. Carnival Cruise was
9:34
beautiful plants. It's
9:36
Adam Curry: an obvious place. If
it wasn't for the
9:38
John C Dvorak: damn Haitians.
Yeah, barbecue. Annoying.
9:42
Adam Curry: Well, let's get to
the big news of the day. This
9:44
was without a doubt the big news
big, big, big, big news. We're
9:47
Unknown: learning more about the
severe turbulence on a passenger
9:50
plane from London to Asia. One
man was killed and images show
9:55
just how chaotic things got
inside that cabin. And we are
9:59
now hearing from the airlines
CEO ABCs Christiane Cordero has
10:02
more on this Christiane Good
morning,
10:04
Rhiannon Good morning to you
this kind of turbulence has been
10:07
on the rise experts say one
factor, maybe climate change.
10:13
Adam Curry: Climate change now I
love these reports because
10:16
John C Dvorak: yeah cuz true by
the way Tribulus has never
10:18
happened before climate change.
10:20
Adam Curry: I'm going to give
you a whole I got a whole report
10:22
I got a whole rundown on this
because I'm tired of this
10:24
nonsense. And by the way, one
man was killed. He died of a
10:28
heart attack it said, but he
died of a heart attack. He
10:31
wasn't killed. It was not a
pretty scene. Absolutely. Which
10:35
is a reminder. How many times do
we have to see it just like we
10:39
do up here in the cockpit. When
you're in your seat, keep your
10:42
seatbelt buckled. Don't think
that you've got a free ride
10:45
here. Keep your seatbelt
buckled. It's that simple. A
10:49
Unknown: Singapore Airlines
flight with us as Reuters, by
10:52
the way hit but severe
turbulence and Tuesday, flinging
10:55
passengers and crew around the
cabin and forcing the plane to
10:59
make an emergency landing in
Bangkok. dozens were injured.
11:04
One died of a suspected heart
attack suspected what happened
11:08
what happened it appears that
the flights entered an air
11:11
pocket. There are also reports
that there were some storms
11:14
nearby
11:16
Adam Curry: some of the
turbulence so this is kind of
11:19
where I caught my attention like
Oh, because they're talking wind
11:23
shear clear air turbulence,
climate change. And then there's
11:27
this little report that everyone
kept repeating over and over and
11:32
over Reuters again,
11:34
Unknown: climate change be
making air turbulence more
11:37
common and severe. The death of
one passenger and injuries to
11:41
others on a Singapore Airlines
flight has underlined the
11:45
potential dangers of severe
turbulence in particular.
11:49
Airline ratings editor in chief
Geoffrey Thomas turbulence is
11:53
becoming
11:54
Adam Curry: more prevalent as
climate changes. And the
11:57
university's research in the
United Kingdom has shown that
12:00
over the last 40 years, severe
turbulence has increased by
12:04
55% 55 55%. Oh no, this climate
change must be stopped. What is
12:12
it doing NBC breaking
12:14
Unknown: this morning after that
dramatic turbulence onboard
12:16
Singapore Airlines flight 321,
the airline's CEO is speaking
12:21
out. We're deeply saddened by
this incident, that extreme
12:25
turbulence wreaks havoc inside
the plane, injuring dozens of
12:29
passengers and flight
attendants. Some critically so
12:32
called clear air turbulence,
often appearing close to the jet
12:35
stream is very difficult to
predict. And researchers say
12:38
climate change has made wind
shear much stronger. Yes.
12:43
Adam Curry: And so now we're not
sure was it clear air
12:45
turbulence? Were they in a
storm? Is it wind shear? Maybe
12:49
the CBC can help us out? Paul
12:51
Unknown: Williams is an
atmospheric scientist at Reading
12:53
University in England. Are we
seeing an increase in
12:57
turbulence?
12:58
I think so. This started out as
a theory we had about 10 years
13:04
ago, we were running atmospheric
simulations, computer
13:08
simulations of the future.
13:10
Adam Curry: Oh, yeah. Now
standby, because we got some
13:12
modeling going on here.
13:14
Unknown: And they were
indicating that the amount of
13:17
severe clear air turbulence was
going to double or treble in the
13:23
next few decades, because of
climate change. And more
13:28
recently, last year, we
published a study that confirmed
13:31
that, in fact, those increases
have already begun.
13:34
Adam Curry: I love how they
published a study that confirms
13:36
that we looked back at
historical data. That's No, no
13:39
actual evidence. There's no
actual evidence, they just
13:42
published a study that confirmed
it
13:44
Unknown: confirmed that, in
fact, those increases have
13:46
already begun, looked back at
historic data, going back to
13:51
1979, which is when satellites
first began observing the jet
13:55
stream. And when we crunched
those numbers, we found that
13:58
rather than 1979 to the present
day, there has already been a
14:02
55% increase in the amount of
severe turbulence. So I think
14:07
those increases from climate
change have already begun and
14:10
are only set to continue into
the future if the climate
14:13
continues to change as we expect
it to.
14:15
Adam Curry: So this is your pet
peeve. Your pet peeve is 55%. Of
14:20
what? So exactly sounds very
severe this 55% Oh my god, we're
14:27
all going to die. Luckily, CBC
kept this guy on the phone, or
14:32
on the Skype on the zoom for
about 12 minutes. If you didn't
14:36
fall asleep. By the end, he lets
us know what's really going on.
14:42
Unknown: severe turbulence is
rare, and it even will remain
14:45
rare. If it doubles or triples.
Something like 1/10 of 1% of the
14:50
atmosphere at fly cruising
levels has to be a turbulence in
14:53
it. So you take naught point 1%
and double it or triple it. It's
14:56
still only point two or point 3%
of the chance of your flight
15:00
hitting that little tiny part of
the atmosphere is really is
15:04
really tiny, just keep your
seatbelt fastened, and then try
15:07
and have a nice flight. So
15:09
Adam Curry: 0.1% of the air is
has severe turbulence. But
15:16
because it's 55% increase, it's
only like 0.2% now. So there's
15:23
not that much to be afraid of,
especially if you realize that
15:28
this was not clear air
turbulence. This is what it was
15:32
Unknown: the Boeing triple seven
was flying from London to
15:34
Singapore, when it hits sudden
turbulence on the edge of a
15:37
powerful storm, flight radar 24
data shows the plane suddenly
15:42
pushed up and down, like a
violent wave at 37,000 feet,
15:47
then a controlled emergency
descent to 31,000 feet and an
15:52
emergency landing, they
15:53
Adam Curry: were flying over the
ITC z which every big, heavy
15:59
aircraft pilot knows is the
intertropical convergence zone.
16:03
This is where this is right by
the equator. This is where you
16:06
get these two jet streams
converging. This is where
16:08
particularly July January, you
get big storms. And that's what
16:14
they flew into. This has nothing
to do with clear air turbulence
16:18
from climate change. It's
nonsense. It's not fun and fun
16:23
if you're in the in the plane.
But this is big scare tactics.
16:28
And once again, hype climate
change. And I spent several days
16:34
this week putting together our
Sunday special, which will be a
16:38
climate change special.
16:40
John C Dvorak: And this would be
the second time we've done it
16:42
climate change special I'd like
people to compare it to the old
16:45
one. Well,
16:46
Adam Curry: buted climate change
clips. And I did us reading and
16:51
talking about climate change,
almost it'll be different won't
16:55
exactly almost no clips. So
because of Cirque de nonnamous
16:59
being it.io. If you haven't seen
being adata, you can search
17:03
every single episode of the no
agenda show. Going back to the
17:06
first episode. When you see the
transcript, you can highlight a
17:10
piece of the transcript, click
the Clip button and it creates
17:13
an embeddable clip actually
creates an embeddable clip with
17:16
a video with with the captions.
And with the show art, it's
17:22
really phenomenal what he's
done.
17:24
John C Dvorak: It's phenomena it
is actually good debt, which is
17:27
why I'm sending you more show
notes now knowing that I'll go
17:29
into this database. So yeah, I
17:32
Adam Curry: just fun to do. So.
I started episode one, we
17:36
actually the first episode we
talked about, and I only only
17:40
search for global warming, I
didn't search for climate
17:42
change, because it was global
warming. We're talking almost 17
17:45
years ago, you could
17:46
John C Dvorak: do another five
hours using searching for
17:49
climate change. I didn't
17:51
Adam Curry: get past episode
100. And I had the show done.
17:56
John C Dvorak: And yeah, and
what I did the same thing with
17:58
the clips and what didn't get
very far. And
18:00
Adam Curry: what's surprising is
that the elements are always the
18:04
same. Banning meat vaccinations,
because we also had another bird
18:12
flu, swine flu, trusting the
science, if you recall. And I'd
18:17
forgotten this, that the
university that had all the base
18:21
climate data, do you remember
that they lost all the data
18:24
because they didn't have enough
hard drives, and then the data
18:27
got corrupted, and they lost it.
So the actual Glee the actual
18:31
basis data that all this
nonsense is built upon has been
18:35
lost at stake. Similar, similar
to the moon landing recordings,
18:40
oops. And then something one
other thing that is very, it
18:47
just keeps coming back. It's the
same elements over and over
18:49
again. Huge element and no meat,
no meat, by the way. There was
18:53
no talk of burps, it was all cow
farts. Sheep farts was
18:59
John C Dvorak: another big Good
point. Yep, you're right. I
19:01
remember that period where it
was called farts. It was no cow.
19:05
Now it's cow burping.
19:07
Adam Curry: That was sheep
farts. You don't hear about that
19:08
anymore. The sheep farts when
you remember that? Yeah, it was
19:11
like 12% of, of New Zealand's
climate change or global warming
19:15
came from sheep farts. So they
made up all kinds of stuff. But
19:19
I pulled a clip as a teaser. And
this is a discovery that you
19:23
made on the show. We're going
back to Episode 93 from 2000.
19:32
What, what are you making that
sound for? Because
19:36
John C Dvorak: 93 That's, that's
in the dark ages. But that was
19:40
the show. But that's
19:41
Adam Curry: what's so cool is
because this, this is how long
19:43
we've been tracking this
nonsense. And we've been
19:46
delivering this as a public
service to people. And this one
19:50
I had forgotten about and it's
something that you picked up on.
19:53
We're going back to Episode
93 2000 Here we go. You'll be
19:58
amazed by this
19:59
John C Dvorak: New Zealand
interview UVC this week, they
20:01
had a complete documentary on
power shift. oh nine. Oh, nice.
20:09
Now power shift.org People can
go out there and check it out.
20:12
It's a green activists and
essentially the government has
20:18
taken over this this particular
conference and they loaded it up
20:22
with Obama people. The keynoter
was the EPA woman, Paul Podesta,
20:27
the one of the staffers that one
of the major staffers, you know,
20:30
Podesta
20:31
Adam Curry: before we knew about
Podesta, it's
20:35
John C Dvorak: one of these
other guys was gonna look like
20:37
the organizer from the way they
had this thing. structured the
20:41
way they did the, the, the show
this documentary, Bill Clinton
20:47
was there, there's everybody was
loaded up there was loaded up
20:50
with these guys. And here's what
I'm watching this thing
20:53
thinking, wow, this is just
another then they got all these
20:55
kids. It's a bunch of young
people. And they get them all
20:58
pumped up with you know, this
green, green, green, green green
21:01
stuff and you know, global
warming. And so then they jumped
21:05
to showing some of the behind
the scenes seminars, you know,
21:08
they don't always have the
breakouts. No, of course. So the
21:11
breakouts are training to kids
on civil disobedience, resisting
21:17
arrest, how to do sit in spot
properly, how to lock arms for
21:23
how to do passive resistance.
Wait a minute, let me get this
21:26
straight. And I want to be an
anybody who happens to be one of
21:28
those people. I like to ask a
question, since when do does the
21:33
government train the youth to do
these sorts of things? That the
21:39
first thing I thought it was
either Nazi youth or the Young
21:41
Communist Party, this is
training the youth.
21:47
Adam Curry: So I'll bet you a
lot of those trainees from 15
21:51
years ago are now in schools
teaching the next generation
21:55
this same nonsense. Yep. In
fact, we got a boots on the
21:59
ground from New Jersey from
Chris, he says, and his his
22:05
daughter, he has two children in
the system. He says my oldest
22:08
daughter was in grade school.
She's now a sophomore in
22:10
college, but they started with
the propaganda. Even before the
22:13
school year started, they would
gather all the parents and go
22:16
over the topics they'll be
covering. And over the ensuing
22:20
years, my daughter would come
home and report on the nonsense
22:23
they'd be pushing. In fact, they
showed the here when my daughter
22:27
was in the sixth grade, she came
home to let me know she had
22:29
upset the science teacher who
was on her soapbox about how
22:32
we're killing polar bears. And
of course, this is a no agenda,
22:37
she
22:38
John C Dvorak: will mention
there's more polar bears than
22:40
ever exactly, and
22:41
Adam Curry: then forced the
class to watch a YouTube video
22:44
titled something about the lone
polar bear in the tundra,
22:47
starving to death because of
climate change. But the video
22:50
shows an emancipated emaciated
bear walking back and forth in
22:55
the snow while the teacher
explained the video was shot in
22:57
the deep Arctic wilderness. It
was indicative of what all the
23:00
bears looked at. But by the end
of the video, my daughter raised
23:03
her hand and said, Hey, if the
video was shot on the tundra,
23:05
then why is there a wall and two
garbage cans at the edge of the
23:08
frame? I soon received a call
from the teacher who didn't
23:13
appreciate being contradicted. I
mean, this is horrible what
23:18
they're doing to our children.
And I was listening to an
23:24
interview of John Daniel
Davidson. He's a senior editor
23:29
at The Federalist I guess he's
he's been writing for Wall
23:31
Street Journal, and, you know,
all kinds of mainstream
23:35
publications for 20 years, and
he came out with a book called a
23:40
pagan America and the decline of
Christianity and the dark age to
23:43
come. And I just had to share
some of his thinking on the
23:47
topic, please give
23:48
Unknown: us some examples of how
this is breaking down and how
23:51
pagan is paganistic elements are
being introduced to these big
23:55
companies like Google and I've
seen different things taking
23:58
place like this with Yeah,
24:00
you start with this. I mean,
some of that is is is the
24:03
obvious stuff, climate changes
and environmentalism as as a
24:06
modern form of, of nature,
worship, corporate culture and
24:10
corporate America shot through
with this stuff. Now, the way
24:14
mains our mainstream society
talks about climate change, and
24:18
environmentalism is
fundamentally religious because
24:22
because of the importance that
they place on it, right? We you
24:25
have people saying, You, you,
you shouldn't have children. You
24:29
shouldn't we shouldn't form
families, arguing for policies
24:33
that will bring absolute misery
and ruination to
24:40
Adam Curry: as good as
24:42
Unknown: people are comfortable
kind of talking about policies
24:46
that will result in the deaths
of millions and millions of
24:49
people, famine and starvation.
For the sake of what I would
24:55
argue is a religious idea, right
that we that we owe you The
25:00
Earth something and we need to
sacrifice ourselves to Gaia, we
25:05
need to sacrifice our human
flourishing to this other being
25:10
which is the earth. So, and this
is where it gets tricky because
25:13
these people are not going to
say I worship the earth. I am a
25:18
devotee of Gaia.
25:20
Adam Curry: So I'm like, Yeah,
that makes sense, you'll follow
25:23
the science and we have to save
the Earth admits it's replacing
25:27
it's a religion for people who
are all in on this going back
25:31
decades, that's just witnessed
in our religion,
25:34
John C Dvorak: we've talked
about it being a religion, but
25:36
then he goes on a property as
much as anyone but
25:39
Adam Curry: then he goes one
step further.
25:41
Unknown: So we have we have
environmentalism or climate
25:44
changes, as as a modern form of,
of pagan religion, we have
25:49
transgenderism, which is a, a
modern form of paganism or devil
25:55
worship throughout pagan
cultures of the past, this
25:58
notion of, of changing sexes or
gender bending has been a
26:03
feature of various pagan deities
in various cultures, throughout
26:07
human history. And it's
remarkably consistent. The idea
26:11
that, that a pagan deity could
do this in and of itself and do
26:15
it to other people, is has
always been associated with
26:21
certain date deities, right. So
again, are transgender activists
26:26
going to say like, going to come
out and say, I'm a devotee of
26:31
you know, this Persian goddess
or or of this, you know,
26:34
Mesopotamian God, probably not,
most of them are not going to,
26:41
but they will functionally be
engaged in very old practices
26:47
that are pagan fundamentally.
But more broadly, as I mentioned
26:52
earlier, transgenderism is
really a kind of a subset of
26:56
transhumanism, which posits
that, that we can create
26:59
ourselves and we can we can
become like gods, that we are
27:04
Gods, that that we are not
limited by reality, or by
27:10
biological reality. Men can
become women, women can become
27:15
in or we can become neither. And
that we are, we have that power,
27:21
as of a deity.
27:23
Adam Curry: Okay, so I'm
following him there, but the
27:25
transhumanism part, I was like,
oh, yeah, we kind of forgot I
27:28
forgot about that about oh,
yeah, it's all part of the
27:30
transhumanist agenda, and the
neural link and all this stuff,
27:34
and then he winds up with this
one. And
27:37
Unknown: where I think that is
headed, and where I argue at the
27:40
end of the book, when I talk
about artificial intelligence,
27:45
in the trans transhumanist
movement, you know, because
27:47
always because because what
starts with self worship always
27:50
ends up projecting out to
something else. So the
27:54
transhumanist movement is not
going to end with with just
27:58
saying, We're all gods and we
can, we can determine what we
28:02
want to be because we are
deities, there's going to be an
28:06
external object that ends up
ends up becoming the object of
28:09
worship. And in the case of
transhumanism, it's going to be
28:12
artificial intelligence. And you
can already see the ways that
28:15
this is taking shape, the most,
the most vocal and prominent
28:20
transhumanists have already come
out and all that all that said
28:25
in their words, and especially
in their actions, we need to
28:28
turn over decisions about our
lives, to these AI algorithms
28:32
that will tell us what to do and
will tell us how to be happy and
28:36
will enable us to live forever.
28:38
Adam Curry: And I gotta tell you
the amount of times that I've
28:40
heard some tech weasel talk
about that how AI of like, Elon
28:45
Musk, go, no AI is going to
create a god. I've heard Joe
28:48
Rogan say, oh, you know, AI, we
just need AI that tells us what
28:52
to do. And then you look at the
Viva tech conference in France,
29:00
this which is going on right
now, Viva tech. And there it is.
29:04
That's
29:04
Unknown: France positions itself
as the top innovator in the
29:07
artificial intelligence space.
Europe's biggest startup events,
29:10
Viva technology opened its doors
in the French capital. This
29:14
year. AI is everywhere,
everywhere. Events. eighth
29:17
edition aims to show off the
depth of AI's capabilities, from
29:21
sorting waste, to cancer
detection, and tackle key
29:24
questions about its impact
across industries like climate
29:27
change, and upcoming elections.
29:29
Adam Curry: So AI will take care
of climate change will take care
29:32
of medicine and the upcoming
elections. But luckily,
29:36
Unknown: in terms of journalism,
however, French media group has
29:39
told France 24 the industry
isn't at risk. A lot of
29:42
preparations will be made.
29:44
John C Dvorak: Don't worry, it's
the only thing that is at risk.
29:47
Adam Curry: No, it's the best. A
lot
29:49
Unknown: of preparations will be
made easier and quicker by AI.
29:52
And we know that you know, you
can have a synthesis of millions
29:55
of pages and a very quick thing,
then comes the human difference.
29:58
I'm a very, very strong really
In the fact that AI will not
30:01
replace those guys of course,
luckily not you will not be
30:05
replaced by an AI because what
you know what you can do AI
30:09
today doesn't know how to do it.
AI
30:12
is also revolutionizing the job
markets through consultancy firm
30:15
PwC found that roles integrating
AI skills carry up to a 25% wage
30:20
premium as well as having nearly
five times the rate of
30:23
productivity growth and easing
repetition for employees.
30:27
Adam Curry: Yeah, that's right
everyone get a job and AI kids
30:29
kids don't become a plumber. Oh,
become a prompt jockey. That's
30:34
the way to go. It's gonna be
great. Bill I
30:37
John C Dvorak: have a clips oh
please give me some AR
30:40
Adam Curry: clips.
30:41
John C Dvorak: And the reason
these are interesting now is
30:43
because of the clip you played
earlier about the climate change
30:47
made up that was taken over by
the US government with Podesta
30:52
and everybody else in between
the Clintons because it seems as
30:56
though this big AI meet up which
just took place in South Korea
31:02
it's been same thing it's like
the US government's now like
31:06
moved in for an or what they're
up to of course, well, if
31:11
Adam Curry: we think about what
Davidson said, you know, we give
31:15
people a I give them their their
something to worship and the AI
31:19
tells them what to do, but let's
make sure that we control what
31:22
it says.
31:25
John C Dvorak: Well, that would
be one definite possibility.
31:28
Let's go with AI meeting in
Korea one.
31:31
Unknown: Many of the world's
leading tech companies met in
31:33
Seoul, South Korea this week,
and they joined an international
31:37
agreement on AI safety. Several
governments led by the US also
31:41
agreed to set up a new global AI
safety network. So will these
31:46
voluntary agreements actually
keep AI safe? Commerce Secretary
31:50
Gina Raimondo is leading the
Biden administration's effort on
31:53
the issue. Welcome back to all
things considered.
31:55
Thank you, Ira Good to be with
you.
31:57
Giving us a concrete example of
the sort of AI risk you believe
32:02
these new agreements will help
us avoid, are we talking about
32:04
misinformation or invasive
surveillance or what I
32:08
would take both and then some
misinformation deep fake. Some
32:13
of these models are so
sophisticated that if they're
32:16
not properly tested, before
they're released, they can do
32:20
things that the developers
didn't even think they were
32:23
capable of. Oh, Lord.
32:26
John C Dvorak: Okay, so here's a
woman who doesn't know anything
32:29
about tech, or computers or any
issues. It's not a scientist.
32:36
She's got She's the head of the
congressmen she's a stooge. So
32:41
she's,
32:43
Adam Curry: she's like,
generally on the Love Boat, she
32:45
leaves the delegation. Come on,
everybody. She's got the
32:47
umbrella. Come on, everybody.
Yep, it's time to drink.
32:53
John C Dvorak: So we know this
is a fiasco. You got to test
32:58
that you got to test it to make
sure it won't do this or that?
33:00
Well, you can't. That's bull
crap. The whole idea of AI is
33:04
that is kind of a you know,
freewheeling. So how do you test
33:08
that? You do test it by just
really? You have to be you said
33:11
test before release? No, the
only way you can test it is by
33:15
releasing it. You know, let the
let the weenies at it, you know
33:19
that they start doing using it
for all kinds of nefarious
33:23
purposes,
33:24
Adam Curry: comedy. So far,
comedy is the comedy is great.
33:27
Comedy is art. Yeah, and
creating songs and bad songs. As
33:34
some transcription does
transcription, okay. Now, but
33:38
that's
33:39
John C Dvorak: do it well.
33:43
Unknown: Yes. You heard about
hallucinations are the models
33:46
doing things that weren't
predicted? So one of the things
33:50
we'll be doing is testing all of
the most sophisticated model
33:54
before they're released to the
public for you. They're gonna
33:57
Adam Curry: have a lab and have
an AI Lab. They're in the
33:59
commerce zone. Good
34:01
John C Dvorak: question. And by
the way, I didn't notice that
34:03
before that you're playing this
clip. She does talk a little bit
34:06
like, well, I can't quite break
through by though is this
34:11
possibly some powder going
around? Might be imbibing
34:15
everybody follow the rails
34:17
Unknown: so that we can be sure
that they do what they're
34:20
intended to do. But it's
Pandora's
34:22
box already open. I mean, we've
already seen deep fakes that use
34:25
politicians voices, I
34:27
would say yes. And now I mean,
certainly the technology is out
34:30
there. And we've already started
to see some disturbing
34:35
incidences where as you just
said, you know, there's deep
34:38
fakes that's out there and
misinformation. The exciting
34:41
thing here, it's easy to get
bogged down and how it could go
34:45
poorly. There's also life
changing life giving
34:49
possibilities that AI can bring
to the world Name
34:52
Adam Curry: one. Name one life,
you
34:55
John C Dvorak: beat me to the
punch line. Sorry,
34:57
Adam Curry: I'm sorry. Name one
life chain. Enjoying life giving
35:01
life giving this, this is your
this is your worship, it gives
35:05
me life. I love my AI and I love
my truck.
35:12
John C Dvorak: Okay, three,
bringing
35:14
Unknown: the doctor to everybody
that has a phone, you know, huge
35:18
opportunity for education. So I
think the whole point of it is,
35:22
let's do our best to work with
like minded countries that
35:26
believe in democracy that are
that opposed civil rights
35:29
abuses. And say, let's put a lid
on the risks, so that we can let
35:35
all of the exciting
opportunities develop. You
35:37
say, let's work with like minded
countries. China is a notable
35:41
outlier. As I understand it,
Chinese delegates have attended
35:43
these international summits. But
the government of China is not
35:46
part of a global AI safety
network that the US has led with
35:51
other governments, China
exports, its AI technology to
35:54
many other countries around the
world. So how effective are
35:57
these guardrails gonna be if
China and its allies don't agree
36:00
to them?
36:00
Ultimately, we want as many
countries to participate as
36:04
possible for exactly the reason
that you just said,
36:08
Adam Curry: you know, the more
Wait,
36:11
John C Dvorak: what reason that
he just said, trying we went all
36:15
countries to participate? Yeah,
exactly the reasons you said all
36:18
he said was they're not
participating.
36:21
Adam Curry: Because that's
everyone against China, the more
36:24
I think of it through the lens
of let's all worship the AI, the
36:27
more this makes sense, I someone
has figured it out, like, Hey,
36:31
as long as we're pulling the
strings, as long as we control
36:33
in our lab, as long as we make
sure that whatever comes out of
36:37
the AI is what we want it to be.
I think this Yes, I think they
36:41
see
36:42
John C Dvorak: Yeah, the message
you want AI to deliver is
36:45
Democrat precisely what it is.
Yeah.
36:49
Adam Curry: Vote Joe. Joe.
36:51
John C Dvorak: That's just a
wrapping clip, which just makes
36:54
the whole thing and I roller,
36:55
Unknown: we're talking about
three distinct but related
36:58
agreements here. There's the
private companies that have
37:02
reached a set of standards.
There's this international
37:06
safety coalition. And then there
is the federal government
37:10
setting up its own AI Safety
Institute under your Department
37:13
of Commerce. The press release
says it will do things like
37:16
advance support and articulate
principles around AI safety. It
37:21
does not say in force. Does this
institute that you're leading
37:25
have any power to prevent AI
companies from doing things that
37:29
experts believe would be
harmful? Ultimately,
37:32
Congress needs to act.
37:35
John C Dvorak: In other words,
no, no. Well, this
37:37
Adam Curry: fits in perfectly
with this urgent, urgent
37:40
warning.
37:41
Unknown: We live in a world
where artificial intelligence
37:43
can create video pictures and
documents that look stunningly
37:47
authentic. Now the Department of
Homeland Security is warning AI
37:51
will likely be used against us
in the upcoming election.
37:55
This isn't a threat of tomorrow.
This is a threat of today.
37:58
According today
37:59
homeland security bulletin. In
Me countries terrorists and
38:02
other adversaries could exploit
AI tools confused or overwhelmed
38:07
voters and election staff to
disrupt their duties during the
38:10
2024 election cycle. So
38:12
Adam Curry: I'm sitting here
going alright, what exactly is
38:15
AI going to do besides make
nudie pictures of Taylor Swift
38:18
or something else? That's funny
that is obviously not real while
38:22
Biden pooping but what's going
to confuse us
38:25
Unknown: for example, according
to the DHS bulletin, enemies
38:28
might use AI to share altered
images, videos or audio clips
38:33
claiming that a polling station
is closed or that polling times
38:36
have changed who and
38:38
what do you need AI for?
38:39
Adam Curry: Thank you. Thank
you. What you don't need I mean,
38:43
the guy went to jail for doing
just that as a as a as a goof.
38:48
up Twitter he put up a you know,
like a Hillary's sign we did.
38:52
We're done with the GIMP. And if
you use Photoshop, you don't
38:55
need AI for that. But okay, so
bulletin points to
38:59
Unknown: this audio know
39:00
the value of voting democratic
on our votes count. It's
39:03
important that you save your
vote for the November election,
39:06
which is 30 suspect it's an AI
generated message.
39:11
John C Dvorak: Hold on a second.
39:14
Adam Curry: I love when you get
riled up.
39:16
John C Dvorak: They suspect
wanted somebody just asked Biden
39:20
at the press Carrasco kJP at the
press conference
39:24
Adam Curry: who are said
authorities. authority.
39:27
Authority weak
39:29
John C Dvorak: report. Where'd
you get this?
39:30
Adam Curry: This is? I think
this is NBC. NBC, it's an AI
39:37
just pour out well, hello.
Message
39:40
Unknown: sounding like President
Biden which urged people not to
39:43
vote in the lead up to the New
Hampshire primary in January,
39:46
which I
39:46
Adam Curry: didn't hear in that
clip, by the way, but I didn't
39:49
hear him say that but okay. And
DHS
39:51
Unknown: officials also
expressing concern that AI
39:53
technology might be used to
create and push out dangerous
39:57
information that could help
extremists design The violent
40:00
attacks
40:02
Adam Curry: okay, no examples.
No reason why it needs to be aI
40:07
extremists just attack need AI.
Oh Muhammad, we need some AI
40:13
being racist here but AI right
away and why am I an Indian guy
40:19
all of a sudden, whatever it is
terrorists
40:22
John C Dvorak: doling apart.
40:23
Adam Curry: Terrorists don't
need AI. And then here's here's
40:27
the real head scratcher. After
we saw this open AI parlor
40:32
trick, this little shoe rod of,
you know, a an AI going oh, wow,
40:40
it looks like you're gonna do a
video. Oh, this is great. So is
40:44
this AI or is it just an actress
that you hired? I'm a little
40:48
confused about this report.
Hollywood
40:51
Unknown: megastar Scarlett
Johansson is taking on one of
40:53
the biggest names in tech open
AI co founder Sam Altman.
40:57
Hey, how's it going?
40:59
Hey there,
41:00
the actress saying one of the
five voices for open AI is new
41:03
AI chatbot sounds eerily similar
to her own. I'm really excited
41:08
about teaming up with you.
Johansson, who famously played
41:11
the voice of an artificial
intelligence system and the 2013
41:15
movie Her Hi. How you doing?
saying in a statement that
41:20
Altman had reached out twice
wanting to hire her for the open
41:23
AI project?
41:24
Adam Curry: How stop? Why do you
need to hire an actress and they
41:28
hired a different actress. They
did a casting for AI can't AI
41:33
create the voice? Is this? Is it
generating the voice on demand?
41:37
Or is it using pre selected
segments or do they have to
41:41
sample I don't and that makes no
sense. Why can't AI just create
41:45
the voice? This is very this is
sketchy
41:49
Unknown: an offer she declined.
But she says when she heard the
41:52
demo for the voice named sky she
was shocked angered and in
41:56
disbelief over the resemblance
to her own. In response. Allman
42:00
says the company has paused the
use of skies voice but denies
42:04
copying Johansens saying in
part, the voice was never
42:07
intended to resemble hers. But
Johansson points to a recent
42:12
post by Altman on x where he
simply wrote her referencing the
42:16
movie he's spoken about
publicly. I
42:18
Adam Curry: think her got
something deeply right on the
42:20
interface deeply. Right.
42:22
Unknown: Is the controversy.
Right?
42:24
Adam Curry: Well, this you got
it. This is how you got to talk.
42:26
You see if you're if you're one
of these cult members, it's
42:30
deeply troubling us. I think it
got something deeply right on
42:33
the interface. Her got something
deeply right on the interface.
42:36
So you got it. On the interface.
The
42:38
Unknown: controversy,
highlighting concerns over
42:40
online fakes and the growing
copyright concerns posed by
42:43
artificial intelligence. And
open AI says prior to ever
42:47
reaching out to Johansson, it
cast actors to create the voices
42:50
of his new chat bots, the
company has yet to release the
42:53
identity of those actors.
42:54
Adam Curry: I'm surprised that
they need to cast actors for the
42:57
Identify
42:58
John C Dvorak: your points well
taken what what boy, this is
43:01
great.
43:02
Adam Curry: So luckily, on the
place where it matters, CNBC,
43:07
where people are going, Oh,
googoo, gaga over in video, oh,
43:11
and you bought chips, the more
chip we can compute, compute,
43:14
compute more compute, it'll work
and we have more compute by
43:18
NVIDIA chips more compute, wait
for their super black black
43:21
ball, Chip, whatever it is, then
it'll work, then it'll work. I
43:25
promise. It'll work once we get
more compute. So they bring on
43:28
this guy, Gary Marcus. And thank
you, Gary Marcus, you've
43:32
Unknown: consistently offered
gut checks about hallucinations,
43:36
lack of progress, the way in
which this is not the pipe
43:39
dream. That's some envision.
Have any of the recent product
43:42
introductions changed your mind?
No,
43:45
I mean, we're still basically
working with the same technology
43:49
is still designed in the same
way. It takes a lot of
43:52
statistics from a lot of words
and tries to predict what
43:54
happens next. And as soon as
these things come out, people
43:58
start playing with them on
Twitter, and so forth. And you
44:00
see a lot of examples where
they're still making the same
44:03
boneheaded mistakes as they were
before. Nobody has actually
44:06
solved hallucinations. And I
don't think we can with large
44:08
language models, I think we need
genuine innovation here. So what
44:12
happens is we have a trap right
now where people propose things
44:15
like the humane AI, then
imagining that AI is solved, and
44:19
then they put it out in the
world. And we realize no, it's
44:21
not solved. And I'm afraid that
hasn't happened yet. Are
44:24
you going so far as to argue
that the wave of investment that
44:27
very smart companies are making
right now is misplaced? I
44:31
think people are putting in too
much money too fast. I do think
44:34
it's kind of premature. Sam
Altman talked about raising $7
44:38
trillion. That's like series H
money, or something like that
44:43
when you've really established
your business model and so
44:45
forth. And that just hasn't
happened here. I've publicly
44:48
predicted that open AI might
turn out to be the WeWork of AI.
44:51
People might scratch their heads
and say, Well, this is a
44:54
solution. In search of a
problem. We haven't really found
44:57
the problem. The whole industry
spent on something like this $2
45:00
billion last year made $3
billion in revenue that is not
45:04
sustainable in the long term. So
either they have to make it
45:06
better, which is proven really
difficult. Or they have to find
45:09
some killer use case, which they
haven't really because the
45:11
performance is unreliable. So
yeah, my guess is that a lot of
45:14
investors are going to be left
holding the bag.
45:16
Adam Curry: So I hear this and
then I read about people,
45:20
people, people leaving open AI
and they have these horrible
45:24
NDAs and you can't talk about
the company ever, or your blues
45:29
all your vested stock, and I
realized why? Because they don't
45:33
want these people to tell
everyone that it doesn't work.
45:36
That it's crap.
45:38
John C Dvorak: No, it works. It
is crap.
45:41
Adam Curry: I'm sorry. It works
but it's crap. Yeah, I mean, but
45:44
it's a trick. It's like it's not
it's impressive and the things
45:49
in the you know, the the video
and the audio and the pictures
45:53
and you know, some of you know
Okay, so we'd write up flower
45:56
points fine, but it's not really
useful and what the guy said is
46:01
true. It's a solution looking
for a problem that just doesn't
46:04
exist yet.
46:06
John C Dvorak: Well, I think the
funnier thing and he does
46:08
commentary expressed was the
week that we work well the we
46:12
work with good long winters or
pure foot humor that was good
46:16
definitely the peak no but no, I
meant funny in the sense that
46:21
it's like pathetic 50 billion to
bring in five three No, three,
46:28
three, okay. 53 That which I've
always been convinced is going
46:33
on with electric cars too, that
they are shipped you know that
46:38
they're losing. I think General
Motors or Ford or one of them
46:42
brought this up they're losing
$100,000 A car they saw every
46:46
car sold was $100,000 in the
hole. And I think they I think
46:50
that that goes for Tesla even
though the cars are out costs
46:55
over 100,000 I think they're
probably losing money on each
46:57
one because the technology is
just too expensive to make but
47:03
the same thing with his AI when
you go to Wall e dolly I'm sorry
47:06
dolly like Wally was doing well
well he's the movie dolly is the
47:12
is the image that our generator
Yeah, you generate these pieces
47:17
of art over and over again day
art probably losing 10 to $20
47:20
each time that you generate a
piece of art it's just it's a
47:25
it's a huge money loser. Yeah,
they will make up for it and
47:32
volume they
47:34
Adam Curry: get the users will
think or worry about profit
47:37
later on. If we were too old for
this. We have we're just cynical
47:42
off the top because we've seen
this
47:46
John C Dvorak: crap forever. Now
47:48
Adam Curry: the only guy who
really did well, but the last
47:50
bull crap was Mark Cuban with
broadcast.com. Brilliant.
47:56
Brilliant. Yeah. And
47:57
John C Dvorak: he was in and
out. He was brilliant. It was
48:00
brilliant. It was it was pretty
good.
48:01
Adam Curry: You can't say it
wasn't brilliant. Now, if we
48:05
just stick with big tech for a
moment, I was shocked. I tell
48:09
you shocked that Tucker Carlson
did an interview with Eric
48:14
Prince and posted this interview
with the hashtag paid promotion.
48:26
Oh, yeah, yeah, what exactly
would so he does an interview
48:30
with Eric Prince hashtag paid
promotion. So we all know that
48:35
Eric principles
48:36
John C Dvorak: get paid to play
now on the Tucker Carlson and
48:40
Tucker Carlson. This is how he's
making his money. And and he's
48:43
doing
48:44
Adam Curry: it with Eric prince
with his unplugged phone. Listen
48:48
to this nonsense. So how does
your phone protects people?
48:53
Unknown: So again, this, like I
said, this, this era started
48:57
three and a half years ago. And
we came at it from a completely
49:00
contrarian view. This phone,
it's our hardware made in
49:07
Indonesia at a Singaporean
facility, that'll be safe. Our
49:12
operating system, all our code,
49:14
Adam Curry: all our code, the
whole lot, we built the whole
49:16
operating system, okay. And
49:18
Unknown: we are solely focused
on data sovereignty that you
49:23
control. It's
49:24
pretty cool. Just that. I am
kind of impressed that you made
49:29
hardware, you didn't just build
an app like you extract
49:31
because you have to control it
down to the root level of, of
49:36
the hardware and the software.
So that our we don't have an
49:39
advertising ID and our operating
system blocks, any any attempts
49:45
by any app to turn on your
camera, or your Wi Fi or your
49:49
microphone or your GPS apps.
49:52
Adam Curry: Okay, all right. So
that's not that spectacular. But
49:55
wait, he's gonna make some great
claims here and
49:57
Unknown: we don't allow any of
that leakage. In fact, we have a
50:01
privacy Center. This is called
the unplugged. This is an
50:04
unplugged phone. And this is a
effectively a firewall which
50:08
prevents apps from doing all the
things they're used to doing on
50:13
all the other phones. So you're
in control of what of your data
50:19
goes out, which is effectively,
zero. This is like a, this is
50:24
like a safe comes in, it doesn't
come out.
50:26
Adam Curry: Okay, so you
couldn't use apps. And then none
50:30
of your data goes out. Now
listen to
50:32
John C Dvorak: the adult way.
Stop, we have to stop right now.
50:35
When you hear I think you
50:36
Adam Curry: need to hear the
next clip for what you're going
50:37
to say. But okay, go ahead.
50:41
John C Dvorak: Apps assumes an
operating system that runs the
50:44
apps apps don't just run on
anything. I can't run it. Random
50:48
app on my
50:49
Adam Curry: toes. He's running
an Android derivative. Of
50:52
course, we this is boy, he
50:53
John C Dvorak: said, Wait a
minute. You said they did the
50:56
holes coating themselves. They
got nothing to do with anything.
50:59
Yeah,
50:59
Adam Curry: yeah. Get ready for
this.
51:01
Unknown: I'm just the bottom
line and I'm protected from what
51:05
am I protected from if I use
this, here's the thing.
51:08
The if you're using apps, and
some federal agency goes to that
51:13
app purveyor, and says, Give me
everything you have on Tucker,
51:17
that he's been using that app,
they'll be nothing because
51:19
there's no data leaking from you
go
51:22
Adam Curry: so there'd be
nothing, they'll have no login
51:24
data, there'd be no no usage
that nothing, there'll be
51:27
nothing, the app just runs
without the backend service.
51:30
It's amazing.
51:31
Unknown: From your device. To
that to that app. If if you call
51:36
somebody we have our own secure
messenger, for example, you want
51:38
to call and make a secure call.
And you call me it takes about
51:42
five seconds to connect. Because
it's literally creating a
51:46
encrypted tunnel between you and
me, generates a new encryption
51:49
key, every call, it is our
effort to to fight the power. It
51:55
can't I mean, fight the power,
just confess it, I use an iPhone
51:58
made by a company I actually
kind of hate and that hates my
52:02
country. And me and I use it
anyway. Because it's, there's
52:05
Adam Curry: a lot of people like
you, that's why we're here with
52:08
a paid promotion would want to
digitally a lot of people like
52:11
you dumb, dumb, ignorant not
knowing exactly what's going on.
52:15
And here comes the claims queue
52:17
Unknown: that would want to
digitally opt out of the lie of
52:20
big tech. And so what you can't
do, obviously, we don't have the
52:23
Apple store. We don't have Apple
Music, but you can use Spotify,
52:27
you can use a lot of the other
streaming services on here, we
52:31
just prevent them from
collecting your data as to what
52:33
you're listening to. Or oh,
52:35
Adam Curry: okay, so I can use
Spotify but they won't know what
52:38
I'm listening to.
52:41
Unknown: streaming services work
excuses lie here,
52:43
we just have that work. It
doesn't work from collecting
52:46
your data as to what you're
listening to, or, or where you
52:49
are when you do it. And you can
share pictures, you can send
52:52
pictures, we have a lot of the
other privacy related apps,
52:55
whether it's signal or Threema,
or proton or telegram.
53:01
Adam Curry: Telling telegram is
privacy protected No prob proton
53:04
Oh, yeah, proton.
53:07
John C Dvorak: Email Server.
53:10
Adam Curry: Proton, definitely
gives up information. Doherty's
53:15
okay, it may not be able to give
the messages if they're
53:17
encrypted, if they're encrypted,
not always encrypted. But this
53:21
is a lie. And he's in a troll
room says that he's also buying
53:25
ad space on O'Keefe stuff. So
people are gonna fall for this.
53:30
It's like that. Remember that
nut job with the freedom? I'm
53:33
John C Dvorak: not as upset
about it as you. Well.
53:36
Adam Curry: I'm more upset that
Tucker is doing paid promotions.
53:41
I mean, that's just lame. That's
just lame. That's just
53:44
John C Dvorak: a cash flow
problem,
53:46
Adam Curry: I guess. But you
know, but he's,
53:49
John C Dvorak: I like to know
what he charged for that
53:51
particular advertorial. Whatever
you want to call it.
53:55
Adam Curry: Hey, Eric. Prince,
we'll talk about your phone. Oh,
53:57
it's great. Oh, yeah, you can
listen to the no agenda stream
54:01
securely. No one will know
you're listening. It's great.
54:05
Yeah. This is a hoax. It's not
good.
54:10
John C Dvorak: Oh, oh, it's just
it's not necessarily a hoax is
54:13
somebody it just cuts everything
off. Nothing works. Right.
54:19
They're asked to look at your
camera or your contacts or
54:22
anything else. We're just
refused. We won't use it. We
54:25
won't run it. That means nothing
will work nothing. No Apple will
54:30
work on that phone. Spotify
54:32
Adam Curry: will not work unless
you opt into the library that
54:38
does digital, what's the term
looking for? Yeah, no. Yeah, you
54:45
do. It's the digital the digital
signature the
54:51
John C Dvorak: I forget the name
of a DMCA
54:53
Adam Curry: No, not that. No,
it's like it's the same thing if
54:57
you if you load Firefox are
brave. And if you then want a
55:02
wild wild vine There you go. If
you want to watch some movie
55:06
from, you know, but if you want
to watch YouTube TV, you have to
55:11
then opt into loading the wide
VOD DRM. There we go. You have
55:15
to opt into loading the the
libraries that in essence, let
55:20
them know exactly what you're
doing. Otherwise Spotify doesn't
55:24
work. I know because
55:25
John C Dvorak: that's what
there's all I think all this
55:27
stuff's not going to work
because most of these guys look
55:30
at it said, Well, if you will
let us do that. You can't use
55:32
us.
55:34
Adam Curry: Spotify or Spotify.
I have no agenda phone no agenda
55:37
phone.com the Spotify does not
work unless you say okay, I'll
55:41
opt into this stuff. The bills
55:42
John C Dvorak: to spy which
gives it all away.
55:44
Adam Curry: Of course. Of
course. I'm telegram burn
55:48
signal. All right. I'm sure it's
all secure.
55:52
John C Dvorak: I'm sure that was
a paid promotion. Come on.
55:54
Adam Curry: I know. But it's
just I'm disappointed. I expect
55:57
so much more from my
56:00
John C Dvorak: probably never
immersed you hated that guy
56:02
Adam Curry: who don't know I
expect more from my mercenaries.
56:06
Go back.
56:07
John C Dvorak: No, not for me.
I'm telling you hated the guy.
56:09
Tucker. I never hated Tucker.
And I always thought you did.
56:13
Oh. Oh, let's just take a slight
comedic break.
56:19
Adam Curry: For real comedy or
no comedy because I thought that
56:22
was pretty funny. That
56:24
John C Dvorak: was funny, but it
wasn't as funny as this. Okay,
56:27
I'm ready. Now I'm this tic toc
battle ruined our lives because
56:33
of they not going to have the
good clips like this. This talk
56:36
ban I taught clip I have which
is every time I watch one of
56:42
these I say now is this an
actress auditioning is this
56:46
really good acting is beyond the
pale. I mean, is this or is this
56:51
really just a dummy that because
people get on the there's some
56:54
of the dumbest people that put
themselves on Tik Tok. And
57:00
they're just, they're dumb and
arrogantly dominant. You know,
57:03
they don't even know how it
didn't in this case is not a
57:05
woman who's necessarily dumb.
She's just ignorant. And I just
57:10
think is one of the great clips
I've ever heard. Tick tock tick
57:17
Unknown: tock tick tock.
57:22
Say other day I went to a steak
house for a friend's birthday
57:24
and she ordered a steak and the
waitress goes, How do you want
57:27
your cow cooked? It's a weird
way to order it but whatever. So
57:32
she asked my friend how do you
want your cow cooked? My friend
57:34
says I want it medium rare.
Something like that. So then I
57:37
wasn't in the mood for steak. I
wanted a hamburger I'd been
57:39
craving a hamburger. So I order
you know the cheese the cheese
57:43
burger. And she was how do you
want your cow cooked? I kind of
57:47
like awkwardly looked at my
friends. I was like, I feel
57:49
really embarrassed. Do I point
out that it's not cow like
57:54
hamburgers? A pig? Everyone
knows. Pig. So back I was like,
58:00
Well, I want my pig cooked. Well
done. You're not supposed to
58:05
you're not supposed to eat pork,
like uncooked. Everybody knows
58:08
that. It's why it's always been
super weird to me that people
58:10
will get like, red in the middle
on their burgers. And so she
58:14
looks at me. She goes You mean
your cow? And I'm like, I don't
58:18
know how to have this
conversation right now. Like I'm
58:20
not a teacher. I'm not. I don't
know how to educate you kindly.
58:22
And I was like, sure my cow. It
was so bizarre. Like how do you
58:27
not know it's literally in the
name? It's a hamburger. There's
58:31
no hope for the world. Yeah,
that's right.
58:34
Adam Curry: That's right. No
hope for the world. I think it's
58:37
real, I think is genuine. This
is. This is the level of output
58:40
we have from our scholastic
system. I bet she knows a bit.
58:43
She knows all about climate
change, though. But she's all in
58:47
on that. By the way.
58:49
John C Dvorak: If she votes
Democrat, I can assure you the
58:53
the oil baron
58:54
Adam Curry: gave me a whole
bunch of Nidal meet
59:01
John C Dvorak: the goal Nidal?
Yes. Isn't that an antelope?
59:04
Adam Curry: That is a kind of
Antelope only it is an antelope
59:07
that has is a remnant. It has
three stomachs. So the four no
59:12
three or two no three so it has
a whole has so the the meat and
59:21
its ground is ground ground
ground in the gall. And we had
59:25
hamburgers, man, this is some
delicious very lean delicious
59:32
and you know I can send some to
you if you want if you'd like
59:35
me. Yes, a cooler. Yeah, he's
got he's got he's got dry ice so
59:40
yes, we have dryers. He's got
sausage and and the hamburger
59:45
tubes and he shot it himself. At
the at the Kings ranch.
59:52
John C Dvorak: Tony Maloney game
ranch here. We call it a gig
59:55
most Acosta minted
59:57
Adam Curry: oil baron he Do we
call it here? We don't say a
1:00:02
phony baloney Game Ranch John we
call it a high fence Ranch is
1:00:05
what we call it okay, we don't
call it a phony baloney get we
1:00:08
call it a high fence ranch.
1:00:10
John C Dvorak: Okay shot at the
fence, fence fence whatever it
1:00:17
Adam Curry: is his birthday be
nice it's his birthday. Okay,
1:00:19
John C Dvorak: happy birthday
he's not on the list put them on
1:00:22
the list. He's on
1:00:23
Adam Curry: the list. I put them
on the list of course I did.
1:00:27
Well, speaking of crazy food,
1:00:29
John C Dvorak: well wait wait go
back to the meat. So what makes
1:00:32
it special? I mean, what was
what was the characteristics
1:00:35
that made it so tasty it
1:00:37
Adam Curry: so it's kind of like
a mix between venison which I
1:00:41
happen to like the taste of
venison. Yeah, I like to taste
1:00:44
the medicine too. But the
texture and all that is much
1:00:47
more of of beef.
1:00:51
John C Dvorak: It's about
nursing here's when you go to
1:00:53
the ground these ground you
grind up these animals and they
1:00:56
take on a different quality like
for example not to digress too
1:01:00
much. Okay. Example ground elk,
which is a terrific all tasting
1:01:07
product needs to be backed off
because ground elk in a burger
1:01:11
is dense. It's too dense you
need to put some ground turkey
1:01:16
or something in there lighten
and lighten the load. So this
1:01:19
about that for this is this have
is just dense. This
1:01:22
Adam Curry: has the exact same
consistency as beef as ground
1:01:26
beef. It no difference. And but
it has, so it's very lean and it
1:01:31
has to just taste better. It
tastes better. Yeah, I'd say I
1:01:35
want to say sweeter. But that's
not really the right term. But
1:01:38
you know, venison? It's not
gamey though. But it's not
1:01:42
venison can sometimes taste low
gamey if not depends
1:01:45
John C Dvorak: on where where
the venison if it's like New
1:01:48
Zealand ranch venison This is
very mild compared to some
1:01:52
animals somebody shot
1:01:54
Adam Curry: well this is from
the phony baloney a game hunting
1:01:56
place so no high fence
1:01:58
John C Dvorak: I've
1:02:00
Adam Curry: it's fan I haven't
had the sausage yet that
1:02:04
breakfast sausage and I saw I'm
sure they spice that was
1:02:07
something so I'm gonna try that.
Try that next. But he gave me
1:02:12
just a whole bunch of these
these tubes that they pack for
1:02:14
him. So you know, he shoots I
wonder if he even has to carry
1:02:18
it back on his back. You know,
to just you know, just shoot it.
1:02:22
Oh,
1:02:22
John C Dvorak: they shoot it and
go over beer. A bunch of done
1:02:27
you go into the 19th hole.
1:02:31
Adam Curry: Here is the latest
from Illinois. The state is
1:02:34
buzzing literally
1:02:35
Unknown: the Wednesday hump day
everyone and boy do we have a
1:02:38
show for you. Buckle up. We're
talking cicadas and booze. We've
1:02:43
all heard that you can eat
cicadas you know there are
1:02:45
recipes online describing how
you can pan fry them boil them
1:02:48
toasts and put them in cookies
and cakes, whatever but
1:02:51
whatever. Would you drink them
alright, so
1:02:53
if that's something that sounds
appealing to you listen up noon
1:02:56
whistle brewery hosted these
images yesterday unveiling its
1:02:59
locally harvested, cicada
infused Lord. It is available at
1:03:04
its brew pub in Lombard. The
comments on this post ranged
1:03:07
from Heck yeah, and try it to
y'all are nasty. And of course,
1:03:11
a lot of people asking
Seriously, why?
1:03:15
Adam Curry: Because your future
is bugs Illinois. You hear that?
1:03:19
That? We all know you can put it
in cookies and we'll know who's
1:03:25
doing that. Seriously. Who's
doing that? Who's buddy moose
1:03:30
putting that stuff into their
cookies. It's concerning. very
1:03:38
concerning.
1:03:42
John C Dvorak: Well, I suppose
you do pull it. Well. No bugs. I
1:03:45
don't have any bug clips. You
1:03:46
Adam Curry: have no bug clips.
1:03:48
John C Dvorak: Now I guess a Mar
a Lago service. I sold some
1:03:50
climate stuff there, which I
couldn't get to because you you
1:03:55
went to that guy who went from
climate to transgender to AI,
1:03:59
which is beautiful. It was a
huge switcheroo on the whole I
1:04:03
love flow.
1:04:04
Adam Curry: I'm okay to go back
to climate if you want. I mean
1:04:07
yeah,
1:04:08
John C Dvorak: I got some NPR
climate changes because they
1:04:10
there's an ant Arctic expert.
This is getting on my nerves.
1:04:15
This stuff is Yeah, well, you
know, it's doing this is the
1:04:18
worst. Where's the sea rise? You
know, I
1:04:21
Adam Curry: don't see it. Yeah.
Familiar,
1:04:25
Unknown: elitist voices of
America. This is NPR
1:04:30
or PBS. fixing the problem comes
down to you probably guessed it.
1:04:35
Oops, I'm
1:04:35
Adam Curry: sorry. Oops. Wrong
one. For decades,
1:04:38
Unknown: scientists have
gathered evidence that climate
1:04:41
change is melting sea ice in the
Arctic. But Antarctica has been
1:04:45
this weird outlier. The region's
sea ice melt hasn't been so
1:04:49
dramatic. That's because the two
places are quite literally polar
1:04:54
opposites. The Arctic up north
is an ocean surrounded by land
1:04:58
the Antarctic in the South. is
land surrounded by ocean. It's a
1:05:02
very different setup. That's
Caroline Holmes. She's a polar
1:05:06
climate scientists at the
British Antarctic Survey.
1:05:09
Scientists like her have been
tracking in Arctic sea ice
1:05:11
levels by satellite for 45
years. And they spotted a big
1:05:15
shift in 2023. Last
1:05:17
year, there were loads of
dramatic climate stories going
1:05:20
on. And one of those was that
sea ice in the Antarctic was
1:05:23
really dramatically low in
Antarctic winter. So that's our
1:05:26
summer, Antarctic winter.
1:05:28
And Arctic sea ice plummeted to
the lowest point on record. But
1:05:32
it wasn't immediately clear
whether human activity caused
1:05:35
that there's a lot going on in
the Antarctic climate home says,
1:05:39
Adam Curry: you know, at this
point, when I hear this noise,
1:05:42
it literally just goes in my
ear, one ear goes out the other.
1:05:45
I think everyone else tunes that
out to Antarctic ice, whatever.
1:05:50
And it's now a human activity.
But it's not human activity. She
1:05:54
said man was more complicated.
There's more going on. Yeah,
1:05:57
like flying saucers.
1:05:59
John C Dvorak: Wait a minute, if
human activities causing global
1:06:02
warming? No,
1:06:03
Adam Curry: that's not part of
the globe, man. I feel your
1:06:08
pain.
1:06:10
John C Dvorak: It should either
it's causing it universally,
1:06:14
because it's global, the word
global refers to the globe. Or
1:06:21
it's not. But they can't seem to
make up their minds. They don't
1:06:25
know how to deal with the fact
that they can't really put any
1:06:27
numbers together that work. But
okay, continuing,
1:06:32
Unknown: the Antarctic is really
variable. We know, things like
1:06:36
winds, temperatures around
Antarctica are some of the most
1:06:39
variable places on earth. And
because of that, you could get
1:06:43
lots of naturally cause
variation, but it kind of
1:06:46
masking everything that's going
on while climate change.
1:06:49
So Holmes and her colleagues at
the British Antarctic Survey put
1:06:53
together some calculations that
use computer modeling. Long term
1:06:59
for the Antarctic to lose that
much sea ice.
1:07:03
And we found that this is a
really rare thing. I mean, we
1:07:06
knew it was rare. And because it
hadn't happened before in our
1:07:08
lifetimes, but we showed using
computing that it really,
1:07:13
really, really was a really,
really, really, really, really
1:07:16
was a really, really, really,
really, really was a really,
1:07:19
really
1:07:20
extremely rare event. That
suggests such a major ice loss
1:07:23
isn't only a product of shifting
wind patterns, or ocean
1:07:27
currents, how far now there's
much clearer evidence that
1:07:30
climate change is playing a
role.
1:07:32
We found that it would only have
happened about once in 2600
1:07:36
years. Ah,
1:07:38
John C Dvorak: wait, wait, wait.
Let me get this straight. 2600
1:07:44
years ago it happened. Yeah, so
what was the climate with you're
1:07:47
blaming climate change back in
the day? 2600 years ago,
1:07:53
Adam Curry: was the Romans
Romans burning stuff? This is
1:08:00
Yeah, no, I feel you but you
know what? This is where the
1:08:03
money is. I don't know why we're
so pigheaded about it all. We're
1:08:07
just paying we should just jump
on board on board go all in.
1:08:12
cash out. Hello, everybody.
Climate change. John. What's
1:08:15
John C Dvorak: the latest?
Unbelievable we're all gonna
1:08:17
die. Where's my money?
1:08:19
Adam Curry: Have you seen the
latest models? Oh, yes. You
1:08:21
know, AI is going to solve this
when we get the next large
1:08:24
language model from Miss drawl.
It's going to be great. Yeah, we
1:08:29
could be cashing in. People
would believe us. We could sound
1:08:36
the fear if we can sound
sincere.
1:08:39
John C Dvorak: It sounds
sincere. That's the trick. It's
1:08:42
hard
1:08:43
Adam Curry: it's hard but I
think we could do we could pull
1:08:44
it off
1:08:45
John C Dvorak: doable we can do
it take couple acting lessons.
1:08:47
We're good to go. Yeah, okay. I
think there's less there is
1:08:51
Unknown: there is fixing the
problem comes down to
1:08:54
Adam Curry: your Corinne DeVore
Consulting Group is what it
1:08:56
comes down to domain admin with
some AI
1:08:58
Unknown: fixing the problem
comes down to you probably
1:09:01
guessed it reducing greenhouse
gases Gillingham says that until
1:09:05
then reliance on fossil fuels
will continue to shape the
1:09:08
Antarctic even if the effects
don't show up right away.
1:09:11
Adam Curry: Oh, how much meat
who's paying these people?
1:09:16
John C Dvorak: The vegans rich
vegans vegans
1:09:19
Adam Curry: that you'll see
that's quite the quite the
1:09:21
common theme in the climate
change special a lot of veganism
1:09:28
and with the whole
1:09:29
John C Dvorak: idea seems to be
the root of all evil. Veganism
1:09:33
Adam Curry: is a big part of it
big part of it and with that I
1:09:37
would like to thank you for your
currency in the morning to you
1:09:40
the man who put the seeds in the
cow that's cook say hello to my
1:09:42
friend on the other end the one
and only Mr. Joss
1:09:49
John C Dvorak: well in the
morning you Mr. M curry also oh
1:09:52
the morning in the morning all
the ships in the season have
1:09:54
boots in the ground their feet
in the air subsequent water
1:09:57
Notre Dame's show So
1:10:04
Adam Curry: this is I, you know,
I saw it this morning, I when I
1:10:07
logged into the troll room, I
saw a very little trolling
1:10:11
activity. But I think Darren did
something. Because on the last
1:10:15
Thursday show we had 18 120
Trolls today, down to 1693. I
1:10:22
blame Darren. But uh, Darren do
I don't know, I didn't listen to
1:10:26
the whole show. But when I when
I checked in, it was only like
1:10:28
250 Trolls. Wait, no, but I have
it here. Let me see I checked
1:10:32
in. There was 389. And that was
a half hour before we started.
1:10:37
So he chased the trolls away. I
don't know what he did.
1:10:41
John C Dvorak: He played a song
that was offensive to Taylor
1:10:44
Swift, I'm
1:10:45
Adam Curry: sure. Well, I
1:10:46
John C Dvorak: don't think he
played Taylor Swift today. But
1:10:47
maybe.
1:10:50
Adam Curry: Anyway, we, I mean,
there's still I mean, it
1:10:53
certainly
1:10:53
John C Dvorak: be some issue of
getting online. There's a lot of
1:10:56
possibilities. We also have a
holiday coming up. And so that
1:11:01
holiday will probably result in
people taking off today, the
1:11:05
next day and the next day and
then Monday. For the government
1:11:10
the time that's right. Take off
a couple of sick days before a
1:11:13
three day weekend. Boom, you're
good to go know all about it.
1:11:16
That's right. I do believe me I
end of things when you quit. I
1:11:20
worked there for almost a decade
in this agency. And I and I got
1:11:26
our almost a round of applause
because I walked out of there
1:11:29
with no sick leave. Left and no
vacation time left 00
1:11:35
Adam Curry: a big article again,
today I was reading about how,
1:11:38
how today's workforce, they
don't take any, they hardly take
1:11:43
any PTO, because they're just
working remote. And we've talked
1:11:48
about this before. They just
have little apps that make the
1:11:50
mouse move around to make it
look like they're busy. They're
1:11:53
sitting on the beach. I don't
understand how how can the
1:11:56
economy be booming and doing so
well, stock market all time high
1:11:59
hits amazing what's going on?
How does it work when no one's
1:12:02
doing anything? You tell me?
Well,
1:12:06
John C Dvorak: I'll tell you
what I think, which is I think
1:12:08
that even working at home and
getting an hour's work done a
1:12:12
day instead of eight is still
more productive than being in
1:12:16
the office and shooting the shit
all day. And being around the
1:12:19
water cooler and getting a half
an hour's work done. It's just I
1:12:24
don't understand. I'm not I'm
not convinced that that work at
1:12:27
home guy with a fake mouse
movement. All the rest is still
1:12:30
not getting more done than you
get done in the office.
1:12:32
Adam Curry: It's very possible.
Very possible. I think the stock
1:12:36
market all time highs because
the dollar was basically
1:12:38
devalued due to inflation. But
that's just me.
1:12:42
John C Dvorak: Well, it's
universal because the dollar
1:12:45
versus euro is a buckle rate. So
it's still not that bad. No,
1:12:48
Adam Curry: no, not at all. Not
at all.
1:12:50
John C Dvorak: It's fine
compared to the yen, which is
1:12:52
completely lost.
1:12:54
Adam Curry: I don't know how
I'll be over 160 again yet. I'm
1:12:57
waiting for it.
1:12:58
John C Dvorak: I think is
waiting is pushing it on my eggs
1:13:02
by a Toyota. Do that by a Toyota
by
1:13:06
Adam Curry: a truck. Let me see
where it is home. I can take a
1:13:07
look at it right now. Let me see
is no one almost 157 creeping up
1:13:13
creeping up?
1:13:14
John C Dvorak: Did bounce up
there before. I mean, a couple
1:13:17
of weeks ago,
1:13:18
Adam Curry: I know we did. Two
1:13:19
John C Dvorak: highs that
shouldn't be there. No,
1:13:21
Adam Curry: but it is because
something's wrong. I think
1:13:26
there's something wrong. I'm not
sure. Maybe it's just me. All I
1:13:31
hear is I was a everything's
great economy's great. And that
1:13:34
and all I see is tick tock
videos of children going I can't
1:13:37
afford ran I work two jobs about
something's wrong. Somewhere,
1:13:42
something's wrong. By the way,
you too can be a troll that just
1:13:48
you know, maybe, hey, if you're
a troll, just get one of those
1:13:52
apps that just makes it look
like you're busy in the troll
1:13:54
room. Nick convince us now just
move the mouse around post
1:13:58
something from time to time and
just pretend to make us feel
1:14:00
better. I think it's possible
you can get one of those
1:14:03
John C Dvorak: I was creating an
AI for the troll room. I would
1:14:08
create a promotional one. A
professional it's just continue
1:14:12
to hound you like by the way,
too many eggs.com Go to too many
1:14:16
eggs.com That's what I would use
over and over and over every
1:14:19
five minutes. Have you been to
too many eggs.com Anything?
1:14:24
Adam Curry: Well, Doug is our is
our AI in the troll room. Of
1:14:27
course. Doug is AI.
1:14:29
John C Dvorak: Doug used to be
used to give the news.
1:14:32
Adam Curry: Yeah, on the stream
dyno. And then Darren came along
1:14:36
and killed Doug. I don't know.
Anyway,
1:14:41
John C Dvorak: it was all pre
AI.
1:14:43
Adam Curry: That's right. We've
we've had aI on the show for 15
1:14:46
years, with the least with Doug
with Doug and it was probably
1:14:51
better. Certainly more
entertaining. And Doug read the
1:14:54
news. If you'd like to be a
troll go to troll room. dot io,
1:15:00
you can do that live. And you
can join anytime, because
1:15:03
there's always something going
on there. And the no agenda
1:15:05
stream is all kinds of live
shows. And blueberry was there.
1:15:09
I mean, they got concerts. Now
this is insane. What's
1:15:12
happening, it's its own
organism. I don't know how sir
1:15:15
bemrose manages at all, but he
does. And somehow everyone's
1:15:18
reasonably happy. And there's
just show after show after show
1:15:22
and you can, you can troll along
live. And then of course, we
1:15:24
have the Thursday and Sunday
show when we pack them in. And
1:15:28
you can also enjoy all that in a
modern podcast app, which will
1:15:32
notify you when your favorite
show goes live on the stream,
1:15:35
and gives you all kinds of extra
features like transcripts and
1:15:39
add chapter images and, and and
even if you don't catch the live
1:15:44
show, it'll it'll pop up and let
you know, 90 seconds after we
1:15:48
publish. No waiting for 15
minutes, half an hour, sometimes
1:15:52
days on Apple or Spotify. Not
that you can get us on Spotify
1:15:56
since we've rejected them. We
operate fully on value for
1:16:01
value, because advertising is
censorship. Thank you for
1:16:05
continuing to remind us about

And it should be it should be a

advertising is censorship V for
1:16:18
V for life. And one of the ways
that we love to receive value is
1:16:23
from our artists who are always
on the ball. Many of them are
1:16:26
Dutch grandmasters and in fact,
most of them are duct
1:16:31
grandmasters. And they they are
diligently creating art during
1:16:36
the live show when they can so
that the minute we're done, we
1:16:40
we fill out the credits because
of course everyone gets a credit
1:16:43
and we're about to thank our
executive and Associate
1:16:45
Executive Producers just like
Hollywood and and then we select
1:16:51
the title and boom, we're good
to go. And it was Sir Schug
1:16:54
Schug, aka fo Diddley, who
nailed it with the classic
1:17:01
Better Homes and Gardens
cookbook, which he
1:17:04
transmogrified into Trad wife
Homes and Gardens new cookbook
1:17:10
and recipes for indoctrination.
It's a little hard to read that
1:17:15
one but it was good we liked it
there were some other things
1:17:20
that we'll check up
1:17:21
John C Dvorak: Joe was good we
wish was done by Tenzin Neil
1:17:23
right next to it.
1:17:25
Adam Curry: Yes it rabbit it was
a little the house the batteries
1:17:31
it the idea was there is a
typical no agenda pack shot with
1:17:36
Duracell batteries. And which is
weird because I should remind
1:17:41
people
1:17:43
John C Dvorak: I've had nothing
but bad luck with Duracell
1:17:46
batteries that you get from
Costco. They, they they leave
1:17:49
them into a they leak. They leak
they leak and they don't last
1:17:53
that long. The best battery to
get as an either an ole max or a
1:17:57
Fuji
1:17:59
Adam Curry: Fujis Fujis I've had
good luck with Fujis foods she
1:18:02
John C Dvorak: makes a terrific
battery. Can
1:18:04
Adam Curry: you get those at
Costco? The Fuji? No, you
1:18:06
John C Dvorak: only can get at
Costco is Duracell and the
1:18:10
Kirkland battery.
1:18:12
Adam Curry: How are those? The
corona? I
1:18:14
John C Dvorak: have not noticed
that they're any good? No,
1:18:17
there's not a place to buy
batteries.
1:18:19
Adam Curry: I don't think I'd
ever buy Kirkland batteries.
1:18:22
John C Dvorak: I bought them at
Fujis Fujitsu didn't show me
1:18:26
anything.
1:18:26
Adam Curry: You got a complaint
about the chicken the other day
1:18:28
I saw I saw you posted about it.
1:18:31
John C Dvorak: Well, it turns
out that Costco is taken to
1:18:35
Costco chicken the 495 class 98
Whatever classic classic cheap
1:18:39
chicken rotisserie chicken and
in some cost goes not mind
1:18:43
locally but the one up in Port
Angeles, Washington was actually
1:18:47
in swim. They put it in a in a
plastic bag instead of in the
1:18:53
container. Oh
1:18:54
Adam Curry: no,
1:18:54
John C Dvorak: that's so the
plastic bag all the juice ends
1:18:57
up in the bag and the bag is
made out of whatever it's made
1:19:00
out of it. cracks and leaks. And
so you're gonna get Costco
1:19:04
chicken juice all over your car,
or wherever you put the bag and
1:19:09
it also steams the chicken in
the bag. Creating a soft skin.
1:19:15
It's a disaster. And you also
can't tell using the chicken
1:19:21
trick. What the best chicken is
in the in the group because
1:19:24
they're all in bags. You can't
really tell with the Costco
1:19:27
chicken in the container. The
trick is for everyone out there
1:19:30
who eats the scrap. The trick is
if the back of the chicken is
1:19:36
touching the top of the
container because you can see it
1:19:39
I'd say about one out of 20
chickens does this. It's the
1:19:42
perfectly cooked chicken Jhansi
1:19:44
Unknown: de Bourgh X diva the
day was that
1:19:47
John C Dvorak: P vis a tip
1:19:48
Adam Curry: well I wanted to
play the P but then you you
1:19:52
close it with a tip but your P
was the was the bags
1:19:55
John C Dvorak: the just yeah the
cheese is a bag yeah the bags
1:19:57
are no good.
1:19:58
Adam Curry: We don't have a
Johnson anymore. Like Tip of the
1:20:00
day we should should we had many
artists check in with slingshots
1:20:07
the slingshot people love the
slingshot idea.
1:20:10
John C Dvorak: Yeah.
1:20:12
Adam Curry: They didn't quite
why didn't they quite do it? It
1:20:14
didn't quite hand in quite
1:20:16
John C Dvorak: good for a little
light corny. I
1:20:20
Adam Curry: kind of liked Darren
said no agenda sewage sludge
1:20:24
class and other classic packshot
was okay. I saw
1:20:27
John C Dvorak: you use as he
always throw something in there
1:20:29
just in case. I saw that you
used
1:20:33
Adam Curry: Fletcher's gold
standard for the newsletter, the
1:20:38
newsletter I
1:20:38
John C Dvorak: thought was
pretty piece didn't that wasn't
1:20:40
nice. It wasn't for the show,
because it doesn't really have
1:20:43
any direct connection, anything
but it was a nice piece. And
1:20:46
then there
1:20:47
Adam Curry: was a bunch of AI
stuff everywhere. A lot of Trad
1:20:49
wife stuff. People trying to get
us with trade wise, wasn't going
1:20:55
to translate. I did get people
emailing me about how they love
1:20:59
being a housekeeper.
1:21:03
John C Dvorak: And well, they
should. Instead
1:21:05
Adam Curry: of homemaker, it's a
Jhansi Dvorak housekeeper as
1:21:08
great as great. Well, thank
1:21:10
John C Dvorak: you for keeping a
house. Yeah,
1:21:12
Adam Curry: exactly. You're
keeping the house. Thank you
1:21:15
very much, sir. Schug, aka fo
diddley for the artwork for
1:21:19
episode 1662. We almost this was
kind of interesting. We almost
1:21:24
titled that one. jacked up, Joe.
And we went for a hard landing,
1:21:29
but we like yeah. How about
jacked up, Joe? And if we had
1:21:32
done that, it would have been
the third time we've used that
1:21:34
title a quick turns out Yeah,
quick, a quick check revealed
1:21:38
that we had already doubled that
once before. So
1:21:41
John C Dvorak: yes, we do use
it, use it twice. When I
1:21:43
promoted the idea of let's go
for that trick.
1:21:46
Adam Curry: I wavered for a
minute, but then now because now
1:21:51
we'd like to thank the people
who delivered us treasure. We
1:21:54
appreciate this very much. We
appreciate anyone who becomes a
1:21:57
producer and you can become a
producer for any amount. At any
1:22:00
time it's up to you can become a
sustaining producer. If everyone
1:22:04
did it would be fantastic. But
you know, that's just not how it
1:22:06
works. Value for value usually
comes in the form of numerology
1:22:11
people love to donate and
certain numbers, but if you feel
1:22:14
like it, you can go to no agenda
donations.com And you can set up
1:22:18
something that goes every month
or every, every week or every
1:22:20
show, it could be $5 can be
1111. I see. So what are people
1:22:24
doing for I looked at the
numbers so that's the weekly now
1:22:29
that's the weekly $4 A week
you're gonna have a layaway
1:22:31
knighthood. So as long as the as
long as you keep track of with
1:22:36
the honor system, keep track of
all your donations. Lots of
1:22:39
people have become nights from
now on over a year's time. And,
1:22:43
and we appreciate them. We
appreciate anybody under 50
1:22:46
Typically that's for anonymity.
No, it doesn't want to be
1:22:49
mentioned at all. And we always
want to highlight our our top
1:22:53
donors $200 above Associate
Executive Producers $300 and
1:22:56
above is executive producer and
we read your note and we kick it
1:23:00
off with Dusty from Waco, Texas,
who comes in with a cool Insta
1:23:04
night. $1,000 He has a
typewritten note which I shall
1:23:09
read there we go. Dear John Adam
dusty here from Waco Texas De
1:23:15
douche me fellas you've been de
deuced been feeling been feeling
1:23:22
to donate for quite some time.
This is Texan been failing to
1:23:26
donate for failing
1:23:28
John C Dvorak: or knowing for
some time bores you bitter de
1:23:31
douche me
1:23:31
Adam Curry: got punched in the
mouth by my cousin Chris
1:23:33
Gilliam, who resides in North
Austin. And I'd like to publicly
1:23:36
thank him for telling me about
no agenda. And also I should
1:23:40
write remind him to donate
douchebag. John, it's hard for
1:23:47
me to relate to anyone who still
calls California home. Only
1:23:52
kidding, he says, but I do value
your voice of experience. You
1:23:56
keep the game on the field.
Well, that's interesting. You
1:24:00
keep the game on the field. Do
you think that means in this
1:24:03
context, I'm out. I pray for
your state. To Adam however, I
1:24:08
have the most important thing in
common in 2004. I cried out to
1:24:11
the Lord from a very lost and
dark place. Not only did he
1:24:14
rescue me from my pain, but he
also set my feet on solid ground
1:24:18
that has given me a fruitful
life. With renewing hope in my
1:24:20
heart. I was so happy for you
and your family when I heard you
1:24:23
would come to faith in Jesus
after 20 years of walking with
1:24:26
him. I know now for certain that
every word in that Bible is
1:24:29
right and true. No jingles for
me though. I donate this $1,000
1:24:33
With a cheerful heart of
gratitude for no agenda service
1:24:36
to humanity. Y'all are another
critical voice in the lay man's
1:24:40
search for the truth. I'll sign
off with a quote from dj t. That
1:24:45
will be Donald J. John Trump I
presume the truth is a force of
1:24:49
nature. It always wins in the
end. Hang on folks only a little
1:24:54
while longer now. I think he's
voting for Trump.
1:24:59
John C Dvorak: He's voting Yes,
and you can hold on you never
1:25:01
know what's gonna happen. Yeah,
you never know. Alright. Thanks,
1:25:04
brother.
1:25:04
Adam Curry: Thank you dusty and
didn't have that he asked for a
1:25:07
knighting or anything. Nope,
1:25:09
John C Dvorak: he did not. We
talked about this Jay and I, and
1:25:12
we're just gonna wait for him to
come back and tell us what to
1:25:14
do.
1:25:15
Adam Curry: Okay, and we'll do
it. We'll do it for you,
1:25:17
brother. We'll do it for you.
Just let us know.
1:25:21

1:28:35
Adam Curry: I love that sound?
Yeah, what are you buying? What
1:28:39
are you bumping?
1:28:40
John C Dvorak: It's this is the
midst the bar that sticks out
1:28:45
and and then the mic is attached
to that and then there's just a
1:28:49
cage around the mic, which
shouldn't allow that to happen
1:28:52
what I'm doing here should not
be heard by the mic at all. But
1:28:57
Adam Curry: are you are you on
the Heil? What do you want? What
1:28:59
Mikey I would Yeah,
1:29:00

John C Dvorak: why cage is the
one that got sloppy and it ended
1:29:13

1:35:06
starting something new love the
show Keep up the good work well
1:35:10
we got that for a number of
1:35:11
Unknown: jobs, jobs, jobs and
jobs for jobs
1:35:22
John C Dvorak: here we go with
Eli the coffee guy in
1:35:23
Bensenville Illinois. This
brings me to a note that was
1:35:27
written into gentleman you asked
espresso questions last episode
1:35:31
we have answers the device used
to knock spent coffee out of the
1:35:34
porta filter is known as a knock
box. I mean he pointed this out
1:35:37
do not to box KNOCK KNOCK box
box. light roast don't knock out
1:35:44
of the porta filter as easy
because they are denser. As the
1:35:48
coffee is roasted darker, the
bean actually expands more like
1:35:52
popcorn and density decreases
which means the darker rows will
1:35:56
get knocked out easier. John
light rows do have more
1:36:00
caffeine, the Honduran organic
is my favorite for espresso.
1:36:03
Adam, I agree that dark roast
work better in the French press.
1:36:07
Producers should visit gigawatt
coffee roasters.com and get a
1:36:11
super sampling of all 10 of our
coffees to which then see which
1:36:14
one is their favorite news. ITM
code 24 20% off their order.
1:36:18
Stay caffeinated. Now, that
brings me to a note that was
1:36:22
sent by another coffee guy. And
of course I ended up going back
1:36:29
claiming the notes. I have to go
back and find the note. Okay.
1:36:35
But just give me a second here
it is from Mike. And he's a
1:36:40
coffee roaster too. But he does
I think he's more commercial.
1:36:44
Does he have a cold coffee
roaster here weighing in on the
1:36:47
light dark debate. And this is
our producer Mike Eli, the
1:36:53
coffee guy who has a dang good
espresso blend will probably
1:36:59
confirm what I'm about to say as
well. But he doesn't quite
1:37:03
because he says something
different here. It's not that
1:37:06
light roast coffee has more
caffeine is that the light roast
1:37:10
coffees have more density now he
did say that and humidity that
1:37:15
the amount of space they occupy
is greater compared to a dark
1:37:18
roast. So when you fill your
porta filter with a dark roast
1:37:22
the standard is 18 grams. But to
occupy the same amount of space,
1:37:27
you will have 20 grams of a
light roast. Oh
1:37:31
Adam Curry: that's why it's more
more caffeine is just more
1:37:34
product. Yeah,
1:37:36
John C Dvorak: it makes sense.
1:37:37
Adam Curry: More product God
1:37:38
John C Dvorak: this is even more
noticeable when you compare the
1:37:41
amount of coffee and a 12 ounce
bag of light versus dark roast
1:37:44
also the phenomenon where he
can't knock the light roast out
1:37:47
as to do a dark roast being more
carbonized brittle and light
1:37:51
roast being more flexible
retaining more water I work in
1:37:54
some high volume $30,000
espresso machines that use
1:37:59
ceramic burrs and they are not
rated for light roast because
1:38:02
they will get jammed from the
two factors I just mentioned.
1:38:08
Now that's more information than
anybody out there who will ever
1:38:10
give your podcast about coffee
coffee.
1:38:14
Adam Curry: Yes well I'm I'm
down to my almost my last can of
1:38:20
the coaster.
1:38:21
John C Dvorak: I love yes you
love the can coffee. Yeah,
1:38:24
Adam Curry: again it says here
nitro shake vigorously to
1:38:28
activate. And that does open it
sprays all over me. My sport is
1:38:33
you know, should I wait before
because the activate
1:38:36
John C Dvorak: is another
question for Eli the coffee guy.
1:38:38
He's the one who makes that
product because
1:38:40
Adam Curry: I did it the other
day. I'm all over my hoodie and
1:38:43
like okay, now I just want to
mention on this this Canada's is
1:38:48
confusing. Costa Rican Dota
tarrazu Snap to coffee you hear
1:38:53
cubs single origin, juicy
profile, vibrant taste. Hmm.
1:38:59
Indeed. It's just water and
coffee.
1:39:04
John C Dvorak: Well that caught
that can coffee that make us
1:39:06
quite good. It trips
1:39:08
Adam Curry: me out. I mean, it's
yeah, we noticed that please.
1:39:12

Unknown: Our formula is this we
go out for yet people in the
1:41:41
mouth
1:41:59
Adam Curry: yeah, there's some
bird flu mother just keeping it
1:42:03
alive at this point. If you've
been following but this is
1:42:08
John C Dvorak: is languishing,
they're not
1:42:12
Unknown: trying to keep it alive
tonight US health officials
1:42:15
closely monitoring that human
case of the highly contagious
1:42:18
bird flu virus. Now the second
infection linked to an outbreak
1:42:22
in dairy cause second infection
1:42:26
John C Dvorak: to secondary
infection. Why are they using
1:42:28
the word height? You know they
this is a I don't know where you
1:42:31
got this but this is bad
reporting is highly contagious
1:42:35
amongst birds. Yes. Well, but
they just throw it out as highly
1:42:39
contagious makes it think that
we're getting it. That's
1:42:42
Unknown: the point authority
saying a Michigan Farm Worker
1:42:45
recovered after having mild
symptoms that worker likely
1:42:49
contracting the virus from
infected livestock. Back in
1:42:52
March, a Texas farm were lying
was diagnosed with the first
1:42:56
human case of bird flu
1:42:57
Adam Curry: human case of bird
flu. First of all, bowl crap.
1:43:01
I've seen guys in Belgium with
bird flu. And let's pinkeye
1:43:05
basically tied
1:43:06
Unknown: to dairy cows. Both
patients worked with cows. What
1:43:10
is tied
1:43:11
Adam Curry: tied to dairy cows
even mean did you did you put a
1:43:15
string on it a piece of yarn
1:43:18
John C Dvorak: that a big rope
1:43:19
Unknown: diagnosed with the
first human case of bird flu
1:43:22
tied to dairy cows.
1:43:23
Adam Curry: I mean, that's not
even. That's not it's either
1:43:27
from dairy cows, or
1:43:30
John C Dvorak: where where it
did this ridiculous ABC. This is
1:43:33
abc abc these networks are
really out of control that being
1:43:37
told what to do. Kurt
1:43:38
Unknown: was diagnosed with the
first human case of bird flu
1:43:41
tied to dairy cows. Both
patients worked with cows both
1:43:45
reporting eye infections, but
the cases are not connected eye
1:43:49
infections
1:43:50
Adam Curry: pink eye that's
literally what you get. It's
1:43:53
almost like you know just
rubbing poop in your eye you get
1:43:55
pinkeye please Hi infections.
Oh, I'm blind. I'm blind from
1:44:00
bird flu.
1:44:01
Unknown: risk to human health
still is very low because of the
1:44:05
bird flu threat. The CDC tonight
as a precaution, urging cities
1:44:09
and states to keep up flu
surveillance summer
1:44:12
keep up keep up the surveillance
but there is no human human
1:44:15
transmission, which is very
important reasons that this
1:44:17
problem is still mostly confined
to livestock.
1:44:21
Adam Curry: All right, let's
listen to Lester Holt on NBC
1:44:24
with his version very quick. A
1:44:25
Unknown: second human case of
bird flu linked to dairy cows
1:44:28
has been confirmed in the US
health officials in Michigan say
1:44:32
a dairy worker who contracted
the virus experienced mild eye
1:44:36
symptoms.
1:44:36
Adam Curry: Oh no since
recovered. The first case was
1:44:39
found in Texas in March. Oh,
I've recovered from from my
1:44:42
pinkeye Oh, so rough it was you
know, there's
1:44:46
John C Dvorak: probably more
cases of the plague the two
1:44:51
cases insured flu and
conjunctivitis, actual play.
1:44:56
Yeah. Actual plague. Yes.
1:44:58
Adam Curry: Yes. Yes,
unbelievable. These people
1:45:02
Unbelievable. Unbelievable.
1:45:07
John C Dvorak: Yeah, yes, go.
Let's change gears and go to the
1:45:11
10 commandments in the in the
Louisiana schools. Big scandal.
1:45:17
Unknown: Louisiana may soon
require public schools to
1:45:19
display the 10 commandments oh
no free classroom.
1:45:24
That's in a bill that passed the
state senate last week. A few
1:45:26
other states have also
considered this move after a US
1:45:29
Supreme Court decision about
religion in schools. Molly Ryan
1:45:33
with memorization WR KF in Baton
Rouge has more to build
1:45:37
specifies that a poster at least
11 inches by 14 inches must be
1:45:41
displayed in every public school
classroom with the 10
1:45:44
commandments, spelling out the
prohibitions against killing and
1:45:48
stealing to prohibitions against
coveting your neighbor's wife,
1:45:51
servant or cattle. Proponents
say it will provide moral
1:45:54
guidance to students. The
1:45:56
significance of history is like
the Oracle. Our laws are based
1:46:00
on the 10 commandments. In fact,
without them, a lot of our laws
1:46:03
would not exist that
1:46:05
state representative Dodi
Horton, a Republican lawmaker
1:46:08
and sponsor of the bill
discussing it at the legislature
1:46:10
last month. She passed a similar
bill last year that requires all
1:46:14
public school classrooms to
display in God we trust. Horton
1:46:18
and other proponents say there's
a new legal opportunity for
1:46:21
something that's been prohibited
in the past. They cite a US
1:46:25
Supreme Court ruling that gave a
high school football coach his
1:46:27
job back after he was fired for
praying on the field.
1:46:31
The legal landscape has changed,
which now allows us to present a
1:46:35
bill like the 10 commandments.
No,
1:46:37
Adam Curry: where's the
controversy?
1:46:40
John C Dvorak: Let's come in and
clip to here
1:46:41
Unknown: we go. Okay. A similar
bill failed in Texas last year
1:46:45
and Arizona's governor vetoed a
slightly different one. The
1:46:48
group Americans United for
Separation of Church and State
1:46:51
says Louisiana would be the only
state to require the
1:46:54
commandments and all classrooms.
Opponents of the bill say it's
1:46:58
state sanctioned religion and
violates the First Amendment. No
1:47:01
here's Terry Landry with the
Southern Poverty Law Center
1:47:04
opposing the bill and a Senate
committee saying it violates the
1:47:07
rights of families of varying
religious beliefs
1:47:10
were the parental rights in this
particular issue. The proposal
1:47:13
does not require teachers to
teach the 10 commandments, but
1:47:17
some, including Landry argue
some of the commandments could
1:47:20
raise uncomfortable questions
for elementary school students.
1:47:24
Do I want a teacher explaining
to my child what is adultery, he
1:47:28
noted that could also clash with
another bill being considered to
1:47:31
ban classroom discussion of
sexual orientation. The bill
1:47:35
goes back to the house where
it's expected to pass with some
1:47:37
changes before heading to
Republican governor Jeff
1:47:40
Landry's desk. If he signs the
bill. Opponents are expected to
1:47:44
challenge it in court.
1:47:45
Adam Curry: Oh, bravo, here
1:47:47
John C Dvorak: we go. Now
there's a few things to discuss.
1:47:50
One is the guy the the the
atheist who who I'm assuming is
1:47:57
an atheist. They came up with
this well, I know it's gonna
1:48:01
cause problems because you got
to explain adultery to children,
1:48:04
but meanwhile they're promoting
sexual orientation discussion
1:48:08
Adam Curry: was homosexual
orientation to the first graders
1:48:12
and why don't why don't you put
the 10 commandments just hanging
1:48:15
above your pride flag it'll all
be okay. sleaze
1:48:22
John C Dvorak: and of all things
by the way, we should mention
1:48:25
the 10 commandments are
innocuous. But they will bring
1:48:30
forth the satanists and the
corniest are going to bitch and
1:48:35
moan because it's not a
separation. What church are we
1:48:39
talking about here? That the
Jewish is it? 10 commandments
1:48:44
comes out of the Old Testament.
Yes. So that's Jewish. So are we
1:48:48
talking about you're objecting
to D hate Jews? I don't go this
1:48:53
stretch. But then again, now the
other element that came out this
1:48:58
is Texas rejected the same idea.
What's wrong with you in Texas?
1:49:02
Adam Curry: I don't know. But I
was not part of that vote.
1:49:05
John C Dvorak: I understand in
California. Why is going that
1:49:08
would never happen.
1:49:09
Adam Curry: Well, I don't know
the details of the Texas thing
1:49:13
but that just need to set
straight that the separation
1:49:17
between church and state is
nowhere. Can you read that in
1:49:20
the Constitution? The only the
only thing that reads in the
1:49:24
First Amendment is that
government cannot make any law
1:49:28
against any religion. Yes, even
if you want to be a Satanist.
1:49:32
The separation of church and
state comes from a letter that
1:49:35
Jefferson wrote that people now
hold up as well as founding
1:49:39
that, no, no, you can do
whatever you want. Any state can
1:49:43
do what they want. And quite
honestly, any school should do
1:49:45
whatever they want. But we do
much better if we got a little
1:49:48
bit of 10 commandments in our
life. But no, oh boy. Oh, yes.
1:49:54
I'm sure this all boils down to
one thing. Don't vote for Trump.
1:50:00
John C Dvorak: While we're at
it, yes, I think you nailed it.
1:50:01
While we're at it. The only
reason for the controversy are
1:50:04
the fact that they carry this on
NPR
1:50:07
Adam Curry: don't vote for
Trump. And while we're at it,
1:50:09
everyone, you know, you can go
to any school in America or you
1:50:15
can go to, I think probably if I
wanted to school in
1:50:18
Fredericksburg, you'll see pride
flags, in all different versions
1:50:22
and all the teachers have a
pride flag not to be it's going
1:50:25
to be great and get pride and
pride and pride one of the one
1:50:28
of the sins of course, pride,
but we got all kinds of pride
1:50:31
flags. But oh, Leo's got a pine
tree flag.
1:50:37
Unknown: This morning, Supreme
Court Justice Samuel Alito faces
1:50:40
new calls to remove himself from
cases tied to the former
1:50:43
president and the assault on the
Capitol. The New York Times
1:50:46
reports the second flag used by
January 6 protesters was seen
1:50:50
flying at a lidos vacation home.
Scott McFarland looks at the
1:50:54
modern message of that
Revolutionary War banner. This
1:50:58
Adam Curry: is fantastic. The
guys flying a flag, and it's a
1:51:01
problem. They flown pride Flags
over the White House.
1:51:05
John C Dvorak: I know I actually
have a clip from two shows ago
1:51:09
Adam Curry: yeah, they're about
to fall. Okay, play the follow
1:51:12
up and then I want to
1:51:13
John C Dvorak: hear I played it
for a while but I want to just
1:51:14
mentioned that this is part and
parcel I think of the upcoming
1:51:19
Supreme Court decisions about
flat Chevron deference flags.
1:51:23
It's got nothing to do. Of
1:51:25
Unknown: course not. You can see
1:51:26
the white and green appeal to
heaven flag amid the rioters who
1:51:30
searched one guy to seek help
make the flag a symbol of
1:51:39
support for former President
Trump and the conservative
1:51:41
Christian nationalist movement.
According to this New York Times
1:51:45
report Wednesday and appeal to
heaven flag was photographed
1:51:48
flying at the New Jersey
vacation home of conservative
1:51:50
Supreme Court Justice Sam Alito
last summer. The report comes
1:51:54
days after Alito acknowledged
and upside down US flag also
1:51:58
associated with the January 6
attack and the stop the steel
1:52:01
movement flew outside his
Virginia home days after the
1:52:05
deadly capital riot Alito argued
he had no involvement whatsoever
1:52:09
in the flying of the flag that
was hung by his wife amid a
1:52:12
dispute with neighbors and
recently Alito argued free
1:52:16
speech is under attack. Troubled
1:52:18
Waters are slamming against some
of our most
1:52:21
fundamental principles. The
controversy
1:52:24
comes as the court is deciding
whether Trump should have
1:52:26
immunity from prosecution.
McGrath, Justice Alito, to
1:52:30
recuse himself from those cases
in court he did was really
1:52:34
the wrong thing to do. And it
casts some
1:52:38
doubt on impartiality
1:52:40
as the appeal to heaven flag
also hangs outside the office of
1:52:43
Republican House Speaker Mike
Johnson Johnson issued a
1:52:46
statement in support writing he
has long appreciated the rich
1:52:49
history of the flag because it
was first used by General George
1:52:52
Washington during the
Revolutionary War.
1:52:55
Adam Curry: Yeah, and it was
against the British because they
1:52:57
wanted to cut down our pine
trees. And we said now, we we
1:53:06
Murni
1:53:06
John C Dvorak: these pine trees
from making cheap furniture. You
1:53:08
guys haven't got a clue. Ikea.
Ikea needs IKEA needs a damn
1:53:13
pine tree. Here's I got this
from two weeks ago. This is
1:53:17
upside down flag became an
issue.
1:53:19
Unknown: An American flag lens
reportedly thrown upside down at
1:53:22
the home of a Supreme Court
justice. The presidential
1:53:25
contenders agreed to debate and
pretty soon also Michael Cohen
1:53:29
on the stand at criminal trial
of Donald Trump appears Ron
1:53:34
Elving joins us Ron, thanks so
much for being with us. Good to
1:53:37
be with this guy. The New York
Times reported this week it had
1:53:40
photographs confirmed by
interviews with neighbors that a
1:53:43
US flag flew upside down at the
home of Justice Samuel Alito
1:53:48
just days before President Biden
was inaugurated in 2021. Now is
1:53:53
this just a matter among Capitol
pundits and opinion naters or
1:53:58
something more?
1:54:00
It certainly has set pundit
tongues to wagging Scott and
1:54:03
it's still a developing story,
but there are some facts agreed
1:54:07
upon Alito says he had nothing
to do with a flag but his wife
1:54:10
put it up after a verbal dispute
with a neighbor over yard signs.
1:54:13
Apparently one sign was reported
to have had an obscenity on it.
1:54:18
Mrs. Alito took exception to
that had an altercation with a
1:54:21
neighbor, and then she ran up
all glory upside down. Now it's
1:54:25
a nautical sign of a vessel in
distress. But it was also
1:54:29
brandished by some of the riders
at the Capitol trying to
1:54:32
overturn results in the 2020
election. That was several days
1:54:36
before this flag incident at the
lidos. So Democrats are taking
1:54:40
this very seriously. House
Leader Hakeem Jeffries and the
1:54:45
Senate Judiciary Chairman Dick
Durbin have both called on Alito
1:54:49
to recuse himself from two cases
pending down before the High
1:54:53
Court cases that are pertinent
to Trump's trials and his
1:54:57
election denial.
1:55:00
Adam Curry: This is so amazing
because you know when it comes
1:55:04
to flag etiquette, I mean
seriously, I've seen the pride
1:55:08
but I'm gonna say it again the
pride flag flying above the
1:55:11
American flag totally out of out
of all flag regulations. Any
1:55:16
flag in America should not be
flown above the US flag. Right.
1:55:20
And fly. What are the what is
the deal with these people? I
1:55:24
should have clipped it. You know
my hatless and pivot with Kara
1:55:28
Swisher and Scott Galloway. They
were like you should just leave
1:55:32
the flag alone. You should never
do that stop with the flag. All
1:55:36
of a sudden they care about the
flag.
1:55:39
Unknown: These people hate the
American Day. They
1:55:40
Adam Curry: hate the American
flag because it represents
1:55:43
Trump. They hate it. They hate
America. They're haters. The
1:55:47
haters gotta hate the haters.
You know, a 69 year old
1:55:51
grandmother was arrested here in
Fredericksburg this week, by the
1:55:56
by the sheriff. You know why?
Because there was video of her
1:56:01
praying inside the Capitol on
January 6. This is almost three
1:56:06
years later. There's still
Rousteing, grannies
1:56:12
John C Dvorak: Rousteing
grannies, and how did they find
1:56:14
out who it was a and why is the
sheriff going along with his
1:56:18
bull crap? Well,
1:56:20
Adam Curry: thank you. Do we
just and this is why it's a big
1:56:23
issue here. I'm gonna write down
roasting granny. That's pretty
1:56:25
funny. We have a run off
election for Gillespie County
1:56:29
Sheriff, which ends tomorrow.
And this is the incumbent
1:56:35
sheriff. And so apparently the
way it works is, whenever you're
1:56:39
riding around the sheriff, just
scan your license plate and if a
1:56:42
warrant pops up, he's going to
arrest you. So I didn't know the
1:56:46
sheriff was riding around just
checking everybody's license
1:56:48
plate. But apparently it is so
it's part political. Now. Of
1:56:52
course. Look at what he did.
He's bad. He's bad. Vote for the
1:56:56
other guy. Vote for the other
guy. But he's bad. Vote. Vote
1:57:01
for Chris gonna vote for Chris.
I'm bad. He's bad.
1:57:04
Unknown: I'm working on working
on it. Yes, it was good.
1:57:07
Adam Curry: But in general, the
the knowledge of what really and
1:57:10
you notice that they only talk
about riders now they don't talk
1:57:13
about insurrectionists that went
by the wayside. They stopped
1:57:16
calling
1:57:17
John C Dvorak: as Biden can't
pronounce it. He keeps saying
1:57:19
this. Here
1:57:21
Adam Curry: is Bill Maher, who
appeared on the Megyn Kelly
1:57:25
show.
1:57:26
John C Dvorak: He did this by
the way I should mention he also
1:57:28
appeared on gut felt.
1:57:30
Adam Curry: And on the view He's
everywhere. He's got a book and
1:57:33
John C Dvorak: he's got a good
book agent and she's pushing him
1:57:36
on this showing that he was not
happy on Gutfeld
1:57:38
Adam Curry: well, he wasn't
happy on on Megyn Kelly either
1:57:41
on January 20 2025. He'll show
up at the White House whether
1:57:45
he's invited or not. And I don't
think that's going to be good.
1:57:49
We're now he's
1:57:50
Unknown: gonna bomb in behavior.
Yes, yes.
1:57:54
Adam Curry: Oh, yeah. Bomb is
worried I wouldn't even throw
1:57:57
around likely. He's not gonna do
that. Right. Like there was
1:58:00
never an attack on the Capitol.
1:58:03
Unknown: I hear you I hear you.
But he's that never show up at
1:58:05
the inauguration show up
1:58:06
Adam Curry: at the Capitol and
break windows and knock down
1:58:10
doors and kill cops and chase do
damage. They didn't break
1:58:14
windows knocked on ops. They of
course did. No they didn't. Who
1:58:18
did they died of natural causes
that day. Yeah.
1:58:20
Unknown: Nobody died that day.
Cops. No, not true. Oh,
1:58:25
okay. I don't remember the
names.
1:58:28
They didn't. There was Brian
sick Nick, who died later after
1:58:32
the fact. And the coroner's
report did not say it was
1:58:36
because of what he had inhaled
that day said it possibly
1:58:39
accelerated the condition that
killed him.
1:58:42
Adam Curry: So this is the kind
of knowledge or ignorance that
1:58:45
people have. Well, cops were
killed man cops were killed,
1:58:48
they killed cops. That's Bill
Maher, a guy who has a voice. He
1:58:55
has a voice he
1:58:55
John C Dvorak: was very similar
on got fouled when he had got
1:58:59
Phil has it has a tremendous
sense of humor when it comes to
1:59:02
dealing with this guy. And he
just did just amazing to watch
1:59:09
is faster to that because the
two of us got into a sparring
1:59:12
match. And you can just see that
the clips are faster. And it's a
1:59:17
big deal. You know that this
way. Johnny Carson always got a
1:59:21
lot of kudos. Because if you
wanted to get into like an
1:59:23
insult thing going on, he kill
you, as you just aren't that
1:59:27
fast. He's real fast. And so his
gut felt turns out to be really
1:59:30
quick. But he said the same
thing. He said, Trump's going to
1:59:35
you know, he's just going to
take the office and he's going
1:59:38
to and if he gets elected, he's
never going to leave. This is
1:59:41
same stuff. He says that he's
going to ruin it. He's going to
1:59:44
kill it. And democracy. Where
does this even how does this
1:59:48
even develop? It's it's just
1:59:50
Adam Curry: derangement syndrome
is totally deranged. I should
1:59:53
have I should have played these
clips after you brought up the
1:59:56
10 commandments because Norah
O'Donnell this was really You're
2:00:00
saying Norah O'Donnell
interviewed the Pope?
2:00:03
John C Dvorak: Yes, she did. And
it took up the whole show. Well,
2:00:07
Adam Curry: we I don't have all
that. But a lot of things that
2:00:12
have been reported in the news
turned out to be fake news.
2:00:15
According to the Pope, what? I
know, I was surprised. Let's
2:00:19
start with number one.
2:00:23
Unknown: It's Francis's capacity
for forgiveness and openness
2:00:27
that has defined his leadership
of the churches, nearly 1.4
2:00:31
billion Catholics. He put them
and the world on notice during
2:00:36
an impromptu press conference on
a plane in 2013, when he spoke
2:00:41
on the subject of homosexuality,
so no persona gay if someone is
2:00:45
gay, he said, and he searches
for the Lord when everyone has
2:00:49
good will follow you am I to
judge? And he did not stop
2:00:53
there. Last year, you decided to
allow Catholic priests to bless
2:00:58
same sex couples. That's a big
change. Why?
2:01:03
Oh, god, okay. But know what I
allowed was not into union
2:01:09
cannot be done because that is
not the sacrament. I cannot
2:01:14
really say the Lord made it that
way. But to bless each person,
2:01:17
yes. Having the blessing is for
everyone. For everyone to see
2:01:26
around you, unless a homosexual
type of union whoever goes
2:01:31
against the given right against
the law of the church today it
2:01:35
is thrilling to see but to bless
each person. Okay, no, why not?
2:01:40
But the blessing is for all
secondary. Some people were
2:01:43
scandalized by this, but why?
Everyone thought every paths.
2:01:50
You have said Who am I to judge?
Homosexuality is not a crime?
2:01:56
No, it's a human friend.
2:02:00
Adam Curry: Oh, which brings me
to the words in here the new
2:02:08
show starting on peacock. June
6, here's the promo.
2:02:16
Unknown: Our planet is home to
over 11 million species.
2:02:26
ROTC really are everywhere.
Everything you were taught as a
2:02:29
kid is wrong. You make gay
penguins, bisexual lions six
2:02:35
changing clownfish. This is a
queer,
2:02:39
Queen as has always existed.
It's only in humans that we have
2:02:42
such a stigma about it.
2:02:43
The idea of just having to fix
sexes is clearly out of style.
2:02:49
Mother Nature is pretty open
minded.
2:02:53
Sex is not just
2:02:55
for reproduction. It's clear
that no matter where you look on
2:02:58
our planet, Nature is full of
clear surprises. To be honest,
2:03:04
we should all probably get laid
a little more than we do.
2:03:07
Adam Curry: That's right. Queer
planet starts June 6 on that
2:03:11
peacock network.
2:03:15
John C Dvorak: Gay and it's
called queer planning.
2:03:17
Adam Curry: This show is called
queer planet.
2:03:20
Unknown: Yep, that's you. Yeah.
Yeah,
2:03:25
Adam Curry: yeah. No, that's all
good. It's all good. It's all
2:03:27
good. It's perfect. But don't
hang the 10 commandments up in
2:03:31
the in the school's queer plans.
They show a bunch of lions board
2:03:37
looked at gay lions. And it
really it looks highly produced,
2:03:45
I must
2:03:45
John C Dvorak: say looks Yeah,
well, they got a lot of
2:03:47
producers that know what they're
doing. They certainly had a gay
2:03:51
Adam Curry: anyway. I don't know
why I went that route, but maybe
2:03:54
we should get back to get down
to either get back to Trump.
2:03:59
Because Comey is out and
2:04:01
John C Dvorak: about oh, wait,
wait before you do that back to
2:04:04
get going about you know you
first you brought up the 10
2:04:07
cameras now we got Brad gay
planet are gay. We are planet
2:04:11
difference. Yeah. I might as
well play this clip. This is
2:04:14
Biden and the five daughters
clip. Have you heard this?
2:04:18
Adam Curry: I have. Yeah, it's
kind of creepy
2:04:20
Unknown: purgatory for this guy.
five daughters. straight to
2:04:26
heaven. And by the way, I say to
every young man thinking of
2:04:31
getting married, married to a
family of five or more
2:04:33
daughters. I did my wife's
oldest of five sisters. You know
2:04:38
why? One of them was always
loved. And not to say one one of
2:04:43
them was always on your side.
That's the biggest advantage and
2:04:46
married and have five daughters.
2:04:48
Adam Curry: This creepy, he's
creepy. It's creepy.
2:04:53
John C Dvorak: What is he
saying? What is he telling us
2:04:55
here? That
2:04:56
Adam Curry: you should marry a
woman who has The sisters I
2:05:00
guess has
2:05:01
John C Dvorak: four sisters or
more. I would assume or one of
2:05:05
one of them will love you. Yeah,
not necessarily the same one.
2:05:09
No. Which means he's having set
he has sex with one of his
2:05:13
wives, sisters. That's what it
tells me that he is that for a
2:05:19
good good, good Catholic boy. He
is a sinner.
2:05:24
Adam Curry: You think, Wow, big
revelation. Stop the presses
2:05:29
Biden is a sinner. The prop bets
are in for the debate, we have
2:05:36
the odds for which drug?
President Biden was positive for
2:05:42
we have. Now when it says plus
200 What does that mean?
2:05:48
John C Dvorak: That means if you
bet $200 You win 100. I know I
2:05:51
know of two is plus $201. If you
bet, if you bet $1. You get two
2:05:56
back so you get three back.
2:05:57
Adam Curry: All right, so that's
Adderall a 200. Cocaine at 400
2:06:01
PCP or angel dust at 600 By the
way, this is from a bet online.
2:06:07
Ketamine 1000. Now Viagra 1500
I'm surprised
2:06:15
John C Dvorak: they're not gonna
test anybody for drugs. So this
2:06:18
betting thing what Okay, here's
the question I have when I saw
2:06:21
this list if they don't know I
bet yeah. Do I get my money back
2:06:25
of a test effort takes place? I
don't think so. Probably
2:06:28
Adam Curry: not probably not.
Probably not.
2:06:35
John C Dvorak: I'll take the
long shot.
2:06:41
Adam Curry: This is kind of a
little bit off the wall but in
2:06:43
the in the category of post
traumatic syndrome disorder. But
2:06:50
what other what word softening
have we had throughout the ages?
2:06:55
Women's Health Care,
reproductive health care what
2:06:59
other what other we should
2:07:01
John C Dvorak: make? We should
have a list. Concise list
2:07:05
euphemism
2:07:05
Adam Curry: euphemisms that you
feel euphemisms
2:07:07
John C Dvorak: as the
2:07:08
Adam Curry: word Illinois has
just passed a new euphemism law
2:07:12
on
2:07:12
Unknown: Tuesday, Bill 4409
passed in the state senate 34 to
2:07:17
20. Question Is
2:07:18
Adam Curry: your house bill
4409. Pass all those in favor
2:07:21
vote aye. Aye. Opposed nay the
voting is open.
2:07:23
Unknown: The proposed
legislation would remove the
2:07:25
term offender and replace it
with the justice impacted
2:07:29
individual for individuals in
the state's adult redeploy
2:07:32
Illinois program commonly
referred to as a ri. According
2:07:37
to the Illinois Criminal Justice
Information authority. MRI is an
2:07:40
initiative that divert offenders
from prison to programs to help
2:07:44
rehabilitate them to success.
Republicans say the language
2:07:48
change portrays a lack of
empathy for victims and lack of
2:07:51
concern for public safety,
2:07:54
change this change that the only
thing that you don't want to
2:07:57
change is the behavior of
criminals. And guess who's
2:08:01
paying for that right now?
Victims all across this state? I
2:08:04
urge a no vote.
2:08:06
How about that? I love that. I
2:08:09
John C Dvorak: love how they
change. Yes, this impacted
2:08:11
individual Yes,
2:08:12
Adam Curry: I'm sorry. I've been
impacted by justice. Yeah, I'm
2:08:16
in jail. I've been impacted by
justice. Yeah, gender affirming
2:08:20
care. That was the other one. Of
course, that was the big
2:08:22
euphemism. Yah, yah, yah. Yah.
Yah, yah. Yah. But, but but
2:08:27
whatever you do keep the 10
commandments out of schools.
2:08:31
Because that's going to hurt
children. That's really going to
2:08:33
hurt children.
2:08:35
John C Dvorak: You have kids
playing adultery to him? Yeah.
2:08:39
Adam Curry: Janet Yellen is in
Italy today. And Italy yet? What
2:08:44
do you think she's discussing
with her counterparts? The g7
2:08:47
finance ministers? Well, it's
2:08:49
Unknown: this focus now turns to
your meeting in Italy with the
2:08:53
g7 finance ministers and the
frozen Russian assets. Yes, we
2:08:57
know those assets are not going
to be seized altogether and
2:09:01
gifted to Ukraine. This talk,
though, that alone could be
2:09:04
given to bring forward future
profits to give more money to
2:09:08
Ukraine now to the tune of
40 $50 billion. Is that
2:09:11
something you support?
2:09:13
Yes, I think that's a
possibility. I believe it's
2:09:17
important for the g7 to work
together to show united front
2:09:22
and to show that we can generate
meaningful resources to support
2:09:29
Ukraine over the next several
years in while America stands
2:09:34
behind Ukraine, and why expect
Congress, if necessary, will
2:09:39
pass future packages. Ukraine
has substantial needs and being
2:09:45
able to marshal significant
resources to help Ukraine is
2:09:50
important. And that's one way to
do it. I understand that today.
2:09:55
European Union took the final
step in improving The plan by
2:10:01
which windfall profits that are
being earned on Russian Russian
2:10:07
assets? Now
2:10:08
Adam Curry: listen to this, this
is about euro clear listen to
2:10:10
the words that say using
regarding interest and making
2:10:14
money or not. I mean, it's very
confusing here in Euro
2:10:18
Unknown: clear that they will be
dedicated for Ukraine's use. And
2:10:23
the plan that you mentioned
would essentially bring forward
2:10:29
that flow of interest proceeds
from the assets that do not
2:10:34
belong to Russia. The question
assets are not earning interest
2:10:39
anymore, but they are generating
returns for Euro clear.
2:10:45
Adam Curry: How, okay, so it's
just the Russian money that's in
2:10:48
Euro clear is not generating any
money. But somehow Euro clear is
2:10:53
going to be taking the interest
earned on that money and sending
2:10:56
it to Ukraine. Yeah, this is a
mistake.
2:11:02
John C Dvorak: They're stealing
money. Yes, loans
2:11:04
Unknown: could be given to
Ukraine that would be repaid
2:11:09
over several years by that flow
of interest. Oh,
2:11:12
Adam Curry: it's a loan. I see
over that flow of this is a big
2:11:17
mistake. And this is why Russia
and China they're trying to get
2:11:21
their own. The BRICS, they're
going to try and get their own
2:11:24
money together. Not something
that happens overnight will take
2:11:27
decades probably. But this is
dumb. This is dumb. I don't
2:11:34
think Janet Yellen is hates
America. Um, she is she just
2:11:39
wants the dollar to break apart.
I think she's an agent of change
2:11:44
for some for maybe the Chinese.
How can we have someone so dumb
2:11:49
doing these things?
2:11:51
John C Dvorak: To us the head of
the Fed for a while?
2:11:54
Adam Curry: Yeah, great job.
2:11:57
John C Dvorak: I think under
Trump. No. Was she under trolled
2:12:00
by Trump or Obama could have
been Obama.
2:12:03
Adam Curry: I think maybe she
maybe she might have been? She
2:12:07
might have been under Trump. I'm
thinking but no. But anyway,
2:12:13
John C Dvorak: she she was I
think she definitely worked
2:12:15
under Trump for a while and then
he got rid of her. Yeah.
2:12:17
Adam Curry: Yeah. Because she's,
she's dumb. This makes no sense.
2:12:24
The here's here's Now
interesting things are
2:12:27
happening. The the Fitz 21 Act
was passed by the House. Here's
2:12:34
Tom Emmer, which always gives me
a chuckle because Emmer is
2:12:38
bucket in Dutch. So here's Tom
bucket to talk about. Thank you,
2:12:43
Mr. Speaker. Today, we have an
opportunity to determine whether
2:12:46
the next iteration of the
internet will be designed by
2:12:49
Americans, or if it will,
instead reflect the values of
2:12:52
some other nation. The fit 21
Act gives us that opportunity
2:12:56
and unlocks a larger
conversation beyond innovation.
2:13:00
This bill is about national
security. It's about consumer
2:13:03
protection. It's about global
competitiveness. It's about
2:13:07
shaping what every future global
digital economy looks like and
2:13:10
how it functions. Currently, all
online transactions are
2:13:14
intermediate. But as we move
deeper into the digital age,
2:13:17
digital assets are key to
decentralizing the internet. So
2:13:21
Americans can transact directly
with each other. Now, no income
2:13:26
intermediary needed. Without
cryptid. We all have this
2:13:29
ability. And I think giving
Americans the choice to do
2:13:32
business through an intermediary
or directly with each other is
2:13:35
important. Having that choice
will fundamentally alter the
2:13:38
digital economy unlocking new
opportunities for Americans and
2:13:42
individuals across the world in
ways we haven't even begun to
2:13:45
contemplate. However, this
Congress can no longer stand by
2:13:49
US regulators squander this
opportunity right within our
2:13:52
grasp. This administration has
demonstrated they simply are not
2:13:55
willing to allow the digital
asset industry to innovate in
2:13:58
the United States. For every
legal inconsistency or
2:14:02
regulatory hurdle they produce.
Instead of coherent and informed
2:14:06
guidance, they drive American
digital asset users into less
2:14:10
safe jurisdictions. That's why
the fit 21 Act is significant.
2:14:14
So this clears the way for
central bank digital currency,
2:14:19
but it also cleared the past. I
mean, it has to pass the Senate
2:14:23
and, of course, the President
has to sign it. But you can have
2:14:26
your own bitcoin wallet. You
don't have to have it connected
2:14:29
to your bank. You can create
services that have Bitcoin
2:14:32
wallets, you can help transfer,
I should say digital assets, but
2:14:37
I just think of Bitcoin. You can
have services that transfer that
2:14:41
pass through payments. It's
really good for innovation, bad
2:14:45
for the dollar. Good.
2:14:46
John C Dvorak: Innovation has
helped the IRS I'm not seeing
2:14:50
it.
2:14:50
Adam Curry: That's what the
beauty is. I'd say. It's not
2:14:53
it's not they didn't pass it.
They must hate the IRS. It
2:14:58
passed overwhelmingly in the
house House
2:15:02
John C Dvorak: Well, what was
the votes? It was overwhelming.
2:15:04
That means a bunch of Democrats
had to vote for a 71
2:15:07
Adam Curry: voted against mostly
Democrats. All the rest voted
2:15:10
for.
2:15:12
John C Dvorak: Yeah, they're up
to something but to
2:15:15
Adam Curry: be honest about it
that the you know, a wallet is
2:15:20
just a metaphor, there's no
wallet, all you're doing all a
2:15:23
wallet is is just making signing
cryptographically signing
2:15:27
something, you know, you don't
get any money. It's not like,
2:15:30
you know, like money trickles
into some thing, like a pocket
2:15:33
book. So if you can do encrypted
email, you should be able to do
2:15:36
an encrypted signing of a
transaction.
2:15:42
John C Dvorak: All right, I
guess that's interesting. It is
2:15:44
to me. Here's something that we
would be good to go that this is
2:15:49
interesting to me. All right,
and PR at best.
2:15:54
Unknown: Okay. maxtow once lived
on the streets of Fairhaven,
2:15:57
Vermont, but he receives an
honorary doctorate this morning
2:16:01
at Vermont State University
Casselton Max may have some
2:16:05
faults but he's really a
pussycat. A Tabby public radio
2:16:09
reports. The ones feral kitten
taken in by a woman named Ashley
2:16:13
DOE has become part of
university life over the past
2:16:16
five years. He's posed for
photography classes, he's hitch
2:16:20
rides on backpacks and been a
general source of campus cheer.
2:16:25
Ashley Tao told Vermont public
radio she's encouraged students
2:16:28
to bring Mac's home if they see
him out after five. And students
2:16:32
did actually bring him home. She
says I'll get text messages from
2:16:35
random students. It's like he's
okay. He's up by the greenhouse.
2:16:40
A school announcement on

2:16:43
Literature degree comes quote
complete with all catnip perks,

come with it. Don't invite max
to a CAGR to celebrate this
2:16:55
weekend. He's still not 21.
2:16:58
Adam Curry: So let me just get
this straight. You compare one
2:17:01
of the most important financial
innovations in our life to
2:17:07
John C Dvorak: get Ovation Oh,
yeah. Well, when the getting a
2:17:11
phony baloney degree in
literature, why literature? Or
2:17:15
is it litter litter?
2:17:18
Adam Curry: Yes. Well, when the
IRS comes for your money,
2:17:20
they'll get it. They'll have to
they'll have to pry it out of my
2:17:24
cold hand my dead hands.
2:17:28
John C Dvorak: Well, I'm just
that that clip is really just
2:17:30
saying what a degree is worth in
today's world.
2:17:33
Adam Curry: Well, not like our
PhDs is a little different. I
2:17:36
John C Dvorak: think those are
valuable, very valuable.
2:17:38
Adam Curry: I'd say indeed.
2:17:40
John C Dvorak: I have some
random clips I can play or I can
2:17:43
play a series of clips on Mar a
Lago case.
2:17:47
Adam Curry: Yeah, the moral Lago
I'd like to hear that the MAR a
2:17:49
Lago case is kind of
interesting, because it seems I
2:17:51
don't know if if we learn
anything new, but it seems like
2:17:55
a there was some coined the
phrase trumped up documents that
2:18:00
were shipped over there. Second.
Trump is using this to campaign
2:18:06
by saying that the FBI wanted to
shoot him.
2:18:12
John C Dvorak: Yeah, yeah, it's
all good stuff. I have two ways
2:18:16
I can go with this. There's a
bunch of clips, but I'm only
2:18:18
gonna I'm going to run these
which are the more complex where
2:18:20
there's three clips the one a
two a and three A, skip the
2:18:24
other ones. Start with one A,
2:18:27
Unknown: we've been hearing a
lot about Donald Trump's
2:18:29
criminal trial in New York for
making hush money payments.
2:18:32
Well, while that one's on pause
through the long weekend,
2:18:34
lawyers for Trump and two co
defendants appeared in a Florida
2:18:38
court today. In that case, the
former president is charged with
2:18:41
taking classified and top secret
material to mar a Lago when he
2:18:44
left the White House, then
conspiring to hide those
2:18:47
documents from federal
investigators and peers. Greg
2:18:50
Allen is at the courthouse in
Fort Pierce, Florida. Hey, Greg.
2:18:53
Hi. Alright. Tell us what
happened in court today.
2:18:55
Well, defense attorneys asked US
District Judge Eileen cannon to
2:18:58
dismiss the charges against
their clients. They say this
2:19:01
case is politically motivated.
The prosecution is quote
2:19:05
selective and vindictive.
Federal former President Trump
2:19:08
wasn't here today, but he
skipped the session but his two
2:19:11
co defendants were here. The
court heard two motions both
2:19:14
filed by Trump's aide Walt
Nauta. Now is charged with
2:19:17
moving boxes containing
classified documents to
2:19:19
different locations at Mar a
Lago in an alleged attempt to
2:19:23
hide them from federal
investigators and then lying
2:19:26
about it afterwards. Not as
attorney Stanley Woodward told
2:19:28
the judge he believes his client
is being prosecuted because he
2:19:31
refused to cooperate with the
government's case against his
2:19:34
boss. When not to refuse to be a
witness against Trump. Woodward
2:19:38
says prosecutors retaliated by
in his words, shoehorning him
2:19:41
into the indictment of the
former president, Judge cannon
2:19:43
who's a Trump appointee, you
know, and has been criticized
2:19:46
for some rulings in favor. The
defense scheme seemed skeptical
2:19:49
a day she said, Isn't that a
fairly standard way to try to
2:19:51
get attorneys to convince a
client to cooperate?
2:19:56
Adam Curry: This is really now
seems pretty Standard. Yeah,
2:20:01
John C Dvorak: it turns out that
they threatened this attorney.
2:20:04
And one of them said to the
attorney, look, here you are up
2:20:07
for a judgeship. If you don't
get this guy to roll over on
2:20:11
Trump. You're never gonna get
that judgeship. And so this case
2:20:15
is falling apart
2:20:17
Adam Curry: at the yes at all.
All seems
2:20:21
John C Dvorak: not to mention
the New York case, which is
2:20:24
really dumb. But let's go bed
clip to hear
2:20:27
Unknown: running theme here
across these trials. It sounds
2:20:29
like there were some testing
moments in the courtroom. Tell
2:20:30
us about them
2:20:31
test the moments. Yes.
2:20:33
Not nothing like we saw in New
York, but But it's much for us.
2:20:37
There was a lot of attention
devoted to a meeting in August
2:20:40
of 2022 between prosecutor J
brat and Stanley Woodward who
2:20:44
just came on as not as attorney
Woodward said he was under
2:20:47
consideration for a federal
judicial appointment at the
2:20:49
time, and that Brad mentioned it
at the meeting. Woodward says he
2:20:53
believes it was intended to send
him a message that he should
2:20:55
convince his client to cooperate
with the investigation. Or in
2:20:58
his words, it could mess up his
potential judgeship. Prosecutor
2:21:01
David Harbach, who was talking
to the judge about this called
2:21:04
that description of the meeting
of fantasy, and that Brad's
2:21:06
passing comments were being
taken out of context. He became
2:21:09
agitated at one point when Judge
cannon pressed him on the issue,
2:21:12
and she had to admonish him to
calm down and
2:21:15
tell us about the motion to
dismiss that was argued today.
2:21:18
What was that about?
2:21:19
Adam Curry: Well,
2:21:20
Unknown: the motion was involved
all three co defendants, not as
2:21:23
lawyer Stanley Woodward made a
technical argument, as he termed
2:21:26
it, that focuses on how the
indictment is worded and she
2:21:29
encouraged the judge to throw
out several counts. One example
2:21:32
where two counts in which now to
in Mar a Lago property manager
2:21:35
Carlos del Lovera, are charged
with attempting to get the clubs
2:21:38
it supervisor to delete video
footage from surveillance
2:21:41
cameras. The IT guy said he
couldn't do it and the footage
2:21:44
wasn't deleted. But because of
that, Woodward says no crime was
2:21:48
committed. It was just a
conversation. He said it's not
2:21:51
illegal to talk about something.
2:21:53
John C Dvorak: Mm hmm. Yeah, it
just gets more and more
2:21:58
complicated. We that's why we
haven't been covering it. Yeah.
2:22:04
Well, yeah. 1/3 clip here. Okay.
2:22:06
Unknown: trial was supposed to
have started this week, the
2:22:08
judge indefinitely postponed the
start date any idea of when it
2:22:11
might actually get underway? No,
2:22:14
no sign of that at this point.
There are by my count nearly a
2:22:16
dozen motions filed by Trump's
lawyers still pending before the
2:22:19
court. The judge has also yet
has to have important hearings
2:22:23
on how classified material will
be handled. She said she's going
2:22:26
to take up that issue in July,
which makes it eight months
2:22:29
behind schedule, and beginning
looking less and less likely
2:22:32
that the trial will begin before
the presidential election. And
2:22:35
of course, if Trump wins,
because it's a federal case,
2:22:37
he'd have the power to shut down
the Department of Justice case.
2:22:42
Adam Curry: What a waste. What a
waste of energy, waste of
2:22:46
airtime.
2:22:47
John C Dvorak: The money, the
waste of money. The Wall
2:22:51
Adam Curry: Street Journal, had
an overview of the median age of
2:22:56
television networks.
2:22:59
John C Dvorak: Of the network's
Yes, I mean, the viewers.
2:23:03
Adam Curry: Yeah. Yes. Of the
viewership of and these are
2:23:06
cable networks. I'd like you to
give a little just guess. What
2:23:11
do you think the median age is?
Of those watching MSNBC?
2:23:18
John C Dvorak: I would say 5069.
2:23:22
Adam Curry: Fox News.
2:23:24
John C Dvorak: I would say
that's got to be 7568. Source.
2:23:29
Fox News is younger. Who
2:23:30
Adam Curry: surprises me CNN?
2:23:33
John C Dvorak: Well, I'd have to
say 70. No, no.
2:23:37
Adam Curry: 66. Now, here's
here's the kicker. M test
2:23:42
John C Dvorak: the median age
median age, which everyone
2:23:45
should listen to. We might
should probably explain that.
2:23:49
Yes, median versus average. Good
idea. Yes, median is that means
2:23:54
that number that you have just
as many above that age as there
2:23:58
are below, right? So if you have
a lot of people who are 12 years
2:24:01
old that are or are watching
them, that would should drop the
2:24:07
median age. But if the median
age is something that high, that
2:24:10
means there's a lot of really
old people listening, the
2:24:13
average is you just take all of
them and you add them all up,
2:24:16
and then you divide by that
number, which is always
2:24:19
different than median. I
2:24:21
Adam Curry: think it would
probably be lower if you took
2:24:22
the average age. But what what
got me was MTV, median age,
2:24:32
John C Dvorak: higher than we
think 50 To
2:24:36
Adam Curry: the median age of
people watching MTV where they
2:24:39
watch teen pregnancy reality
shows. Right? And we're worried
2:24:45
and we're worried about the 10
commandments in school we're
2:24:47
lost as a nation. were lost as a
nation. Here's speaking of old
2:24:54
people. Here's the old people
channel MSNBC, with the former
2:24:58
FBI Director James Comey. Who
sounds worried about Trump
2:25:02
becoming president? One of the
principal points of danger
2:25:05
within the Justice Department,
if there's another Trump
2:25:08
presidency, given his nature,
given what you know about him,
2:25:12
he is a threat to the rule of
law in America. That's, to me,
2:25:16
that's what this election is
about, not about policy
2:25:19
differences is about what kind
of country we're going to be. If
2:25:22
he has the ability, smarter than
he was last time to use the
2:25:26
power of the Department of
Justice and the FBI to target
2:25:29
his enemies, especially the rule
of law in America will change in
2:25:32
a way we haven't seen in our
lifetime. When you say target
2:25:35
his enemies. How would he do
that? Well, I think first thing
2:25:37
he would do is he would express
it in his first term as a wish I
2:25:41
want people to go after so and
so I want people to go after
2:25:44
Andrew McCabe, the former Deputy
Director of the FBI, in a second
2:25:48
term, he would go a step
further, I'm highly confident
2:25:51
and say I want him criminally
investigated. And he would have
2:25:54
he was close to the bottom of
the barrel in his appointees
2:25:56
last time, he'll be at the very
bottom. And those are the people
2:25:59
who carry out that order. Yeah,
sounds like somebody's worried.
2:26:05
He
2:26:05
John C Dvorak: sounds very
worried and he shouldn't be
2:26:07
probably.
2:26:09
Adam Curry: And then this is the
way
2:26:11
John C Dvorak: by the way, I
want to mention some This was
2:26:13
actually a good, this could be
used and he just, I think did it
2:26:17
by accident. But did but to use
the pitch. This has to be the
2:26:21
pitch Trump is he's been an
officer for years before now
2:26:26
he's smarter. When he said,
Yeah, now he's smarter. So he's
2:26:32
more he can be more evil. He's
already
2:26:35
Adam Curry: talking about the
second term. These people are so
2:26:38
convinced. And of course this
which I'm pretty convinced this
2:26:42
was a plant. I think it was well
done. I think this is a chalk it
2:26:47
up as a as a win for the for the
Biden team. It doesn't make any
2:26:53
difference, but I think it was
well done.
2:26:55
Unknown: Former president and
Trump address reporters today
2:26:57
outside of the courtroom, but
offered no comment on the
2:27:00
incendiary, controversial video
posted to his social media
2:27:03
account. What happens after
Donald Trump wins? The video
2:27:07
showed hypothetical headlines of
an imagined Trump victory this
2:27:10
fall with one asking what's next
for America, and three times
2:27:14
suggesting the creation of a
unified Reich, a term widely
2:27:18
associated with Nazi Germany,
President Biden released this
2:27:22
campaign video response
2:27:24
and unified Reich that's
Hitler's language that's not
2:27:27
America's he cares about holding
on to power.
2:27:29
This kind of rhetoric is
unsurprising coming from the
2:27:35
former president and it is
appalling. And we got to tell
2:27:39
him who we are. It's time
2:27:42
Trump has used rhetoric
prompting outrage for its echoes
2:27:45
of hateful extremists. On
Saturday at the NRA convention,
2:27:49
he mused about the possibility
of staying on for a third term,
2:27:53
FDR
2:27:54
16 years, almost 16 years he was
fourth term. I don't know are we
2:28:00
going to be considered three
term or two terms?
2:28:02
The Trump campaign has taken
down the video and blamed a
2:28:05
quote, Junior staffer for
sharing the material which was
2:28:09
first published elsewhere.
2:28:11
Adam Curry: I'm thinking that
was a plant because you really
2:28:14
had to zoom in on the Third
Reich headline it was it was
2:28:17
good. I think it was. Well,
2:28:19
John C Dvorak: I agree. I think
somebody someone did a good a
2:28:22
good dirty tricks. This is dirty
tricks, party politics, and this
2:28:25
was some Democrat did that.
That's why they got on it. So
2:28:28
quick. Well done. Is
2:28:30
Adam Curry: everything good to
go. Now, what does what tell me
2:28:33
about FDR with 16 years, What's
all that about?
2:28:38
John C Dvorak: Who FDR was was
elected president, and he was
2:28:42
then he was reaffirmed to get a
second term and they got a third
2:28:45
term, then he got a fourth term
that would give him 16 years in
2:28:48
office. It was FDR that created
the amendment that you can't
2:28:54
run. Oh, okay. Okay. That's
That's what I was because he was
2:28:57
in for 16 years. Well, you died
in the last of the of the years,
2:29:03
but he was basically elected for
16 years. And if the Democrats
2:29:08
would have just kept him in
there, that's the idea. And it
2:29:12
was they had to be stopped. So
they put the dissent. I mean, it
2:29:15
did people talked about if that
wasn't for that, that amendment,
2:29:19
Obama would still be and still
be the president. He still
2:29:22
Adam Curry: is he still is
2:29:25
John C Dvorak: talking about
he's still my thinking. Okay, a
2:29:27
little
2:29:28
Adam Curry: update on the
Iranian president I like the
2:29:31
what you said in the newsletter
that the you know, the thesis
2:29:35
that these are all guys that
they wanted out of the way
2:29:38
anyway, including the the
bombing of the so called embassy
2:29:42
or consular building or whatever
they are, which is just in
2:29:46
Damascus, these are annoying
people get rid of them. So when
2:29:50
we got the news that there was a
hard landing. This was before we
2:29:53
knew anything this was on
Sunday. We immediately said
2:29:57
there's no such thing. This is a
crash. It's all over and that is
2:30:00
confirmed tonight
2:30:02
Unknown: the wreckage of the
fiery crash that killed Iran's
2:30:05
President and its foreign
minister in a region already
2:30:09
rocked by instability and rocky
crews reaching the remote scene
2:30:13
today. The hardline leader of
America's long standing
2:30:17
adversary dead sudden, by
accident today in the streets of
2:30:23
Tehran men openly wept for
President racy, seen as a
2:30:27
potential successor to Iran's
aging Supreme Leader. At some
2:30:32
Iranian embassies in the West
opponents celebrated the US
2:30:36
tonight says there are no signs
of outside interference and
2:30:39
saying Iran's government reached
out for help during the rescue
2:30:43
effort. Ultimately,
2:30:44
largely for logistical reasons
we weren't able to provide that
2:30:46
assistance.
2:30:48
Today as a friend by fellow
presidents Putin and Xi, Hamas,
2:30:53
sending its sympathies since the
October 7 terror attacks, Iran's
2:30:57
proxies have launched multiple
offensives escalating the
2:31:00
tension in the region, and
tonight's from Teflon, an
2:31:03
adviser to the government
telling NBC News not to expect
2:31:07
policy changes. Despite the
unexpected death, Lester Holt
2:31:11
sat down with me last year in
what was among his last
2:31:15
interviews with Western media,
you see, telling Lester, the
2:31:18
billions of dollars unfrozen
during a deal with the US in
2:31:22
exchange for five American
prisoners were Tech brands to us
2:31:26
as it wanted always nice
2:31:28
Adam Curry: to have NBCs mi six
correspondent check in we
2:31:31
appreciate that. One of our
producers sent me a couple of
2:31:35
clips from this podcast called
the Unpopular Opinions podcast
2:31:39
the thing that hosts his dad is
an Iranian aviation engineer,
2:31:44
and his dad had some kind of
inside. I won't say it's inside
2:31:50
knowledge, but kind of confirmed
some of the thesis that we've
2:31:53
been talking about and I want to
play two of those clips. If the
2:31:55
weather
2:31:55
Unknown: is bad, the protocol is
to delay or cancel the flight,
2:31:59
and then proceed on road for a
three hour drive and reroute the
2:32:03
flight. Rumor has it at the last
minute something went wrong with
2:32:07
the VIP chopper, which had the
sophisticated signalling the
2:32:11
transponders, etc. And so at the
very last minute, they swapped
2:32:15
the lead craft with a different
helicopter, by the way, never
2:32:19
Adam Curry: a good idea.
2:32:20
John C Dvorak: So basically the
whole that's a great one I'll
2:32:24
Adam Curry: never ever get in
the swapped out helicopter. So
2:32:27
basically,
2:32:28
Unknown: they have this official
VIP helicopter ready to go. And
2:32:32
at the last minute, they
switched it with a with a worse
2:32:35
one which didn't have all those,
all those features. Then false
2:32:39
statements started from the
authorities such as a it was a
2:32:43
hard landing, and we have spoken
to them when they got to them
2:32:47
the following day. No mobile
phone could get any signals. So
2:32:51
that was a blatant lie told.
Turkish authorities were asked
2:32:55
to send to specialist drones,
which located the wreck early
2:32:59
the following morning and check
their system and no signals were
2:33:02
received from the downed
choppers, transponders, GSP
2:33:06
transmitters or the sat nav and
see Kamini the Ayatollah, the
2:33:12
Supreme Leader made a speech
only a couple of hours after it
2:33:17
happened. He was as cool as a
cucumber, prayed for their safe
2:33:21
return, and said not to worry if
they don't come back because
2:33:24
everything is in hand.
2:33:25
Adam Curry: So the guy reading
this, I mean, he's all over the
2:33:28
map with the technical aspects.
None of that makes much sense.
2:33:31
Instead of GPS, he says GSP and
a transponder is not a very
2:33:35
sophisticated piece of gear. But
I'm going to take the helicopter
2:33:39
swap out of something that was
probably true. And then this
2:33:42
final clip is about the internal
politics, which goes to your
2:33:47
point about and we kind of
wanted him out anyway, this is
2:33:50
Unknown: where things get a
little bit interesting because
2:33:53
this president Raizy was a
hardline conservative now in the
2:33:59
internal politics of Iran. That
basically means he was going
2:34:03
places within the party, if that
makes any sense. He was going to
2:34:07
have to go far. And in the
Iranian system, to The Guardian
2:34:12
Council basically gets to decide
who will be the successor to the
2:34:18
Supreme Leader raise even though
he's the president now was
2:34:22
tipped to become the head of the
Guardian Council, which would
2:34:26
then have been responsible for
picking the successor to
2:34:30
Khamenei and this is where the
plot thickens even more friends,
2:34:34
because razie was also tip to
become the supreme leader
2:34:38
himself, ie he would get on to
the Guardian Council and then
2:34:42
back himself to replace Kamini.
Once Khamenei pops his clogs
2:34:48
because he's in his 80s Now,
offices clogged and here is the
2:34:51
final clincher. The hardcore was
in the Islamic Revolutionary
2:34:56
Guards, and apparently Khamenei
himself Have you want a
2:35:01
different person to replace
Khomeini, namely, Khamenei, his
2:35:05
own son, Khamenei, Jr. Let's
just call him his son. A lot of
2:35:09
people are suggesting that it
could have been either the
2:35:14
hardcores in the Islamic
Revolutionary Guard, or Khamenei
2:35:18
himself who wanted to off
basically a rival who was
2:35:23
threatening to you know scupper
their succession. This is lent
2:35:27
extra credence because who is in
charge of security protocols for
2:35:32
things like presidential
journeys on helicopters? None
2:35:36
other than the Islamic
Revolutionary Guard Corps
2:35:38
themselves? Done.
2:35:45
Adam Curry: Sounds more
plausible to me than what I read
2:35:47
everywhere online. Mossad Mossad
more shot No, no, I don't think
2:35:52
so. I'll go with the swap out
the helicopter and kill them.
2:35:57
For 500. Alex,
2:35:59
John C Dvorak: that's obvious.
That's what's going on. And the
2:36:01
other guy there, Disraeli shoot
that other character, which was
2:36:06
another piece of theater,
followed by though let's attack
2:36:10
Israel with a few.
2:36:12
Adam Curry: I'm not even sure so
I'm not even sure it was it was
2:36:14
Israel that did the Syria job.
We may have done it. Remember,
2:36:17
we always hear that there's a
lot of collusion between America
2:36:20
and Iran. Yes,
2:36:22
John C Dvorak: you're right.
It's possible. Any any? Yes. We
2:36:25
could have done it. Yeah. Hey,
can you guys set up to make it
2:36:28
your day had to have a scenario
and this was so for all
2:36:31
practical purposes, Israel did
it. Because that resulted in the
2:36:36
missile missile exchange, where
were our Iran sensing missiles
2:36:40
overall, we missed the Iron
Dome. And then say, we got to
2:36:45
retaliate. And they sent some
other missiles the other way
2:36:47
inland in the desert. To bad who
Oh, well, we've had a shot at
2:36:52
it. All right, you know, bull
crowd,
2:36:53
Adam Curry: right? Did you catch
our check yet from the Zionist
2:36:56
got to make sure we cash our
check,
2:36:58
John C Dvorak: get a check from
them. Unfortunately, we get some
2:37:00
serious money be coming from our
own State Department and our
2:37:04
intelligence services should be
donating more.
2:37:09
Unknown: I'm gonna show my
school by donate to no agenda.
2:37:12
Imagine all the people who could
do that. Oh, yeah, that'd be
2:37:14
fun.
2:37:22
Adam Curry: Yeah, unfortunately,
that's not happening. But we do
2:37:26
have no agenda producers who
support us and we appreciate
2:37:29
every single one of them. We
thank our Executive Associate

no, it was not a gaffe. No, no,

this at the time there wasn't
like in 1982 I but I defend you
2:42:35
staunchly on that. Anyway, after

Adam, back when I was a young
2:42:50

pretty ska back in the day, MTV

wouldn't allow us to play it.

2:43:03
you. Both of your life stories

Thank you all so very much. We
2:45:45
appreciate you become a producer
of the no agenda show for any
2:45:48
amount. Its value for value
whatever you got out of the
2:45:50
show, whatever is valuable to
you send it to us. No agenda
2:45:54
donations.com No one says
2:46:03
well, the no agenda meetups are
definitely something you need to
2:46:07
keep in mind. If you want to
stay sane outside of just
2:46:10
listening to the show. It's
unique to the no agenda podcast
2:46:14
unique because we have nothing
to do with it. All we do is we
2:46:17
promote them. We play your
reports. We of course we have
2:46:21
sir Daniel who built a beautiful
website, no agenda, meet
2:46:24
ups.com. Maybe who manages this.
It's actually quite a lot of
2:46:28
logistics. But we love how
people get together. I'm just
2:46:32
talking about stuff. And we've
never heard of any fractious any
2:46:36
fight any disagreement at a
meeting ever in all the 17 years
2:46:41
or most of the show. Because for
some reason, y'all just have
2:46:44
y'all. Y'all just have kind of
the same vibe about life. And
2:46:49
even though people are
different, and you come from
2:46:52
different backgrounds and
different age groups, it just
2:46:54
works because we're a community.
You can't spell community
2:46:59
without unity. And that's what
they have. They're in Keene New
2:47:02
Hampshire. Here's their short
meetup report. Okay, this
2:47:05
Unknown: is Russell. We're at
the Keene meet up which we call

morning, John Adam. This is Jim
2:47:15

two people that don't even want
2:47:19
to participate because they

2:47:21
agenda. In the morning, John and
Adam, this is crypto Duke saying
2:47:25

Unknown: Home and heavy.
2:54:05
Adam Curry: We'll see. Everybody
we always like to end up the
2:54:09
show with some good news so
people can complain about how
2:54:11
much they hate the segment.
We're doing it to pester you
2:54:14
Okay, John, what do we have for
the segment? Oh, there are
2:54:18
people just they will send me an
email. Good news sucks.
2:54:24
John C Dvorak: The haters gotta
hate. Yeah, Taylor. That's
2:54:27
right. Okay. This is a high
schooler who saves his father
2:54:31
just in time for his own
graduation. Families
2:54:34
Unknown: are getting ready to
celebrate high school graduation
2:54:37
in the coming days and the
coming weeks but what for one
2:54:39
Virginia father and some it's a
celebration. They were so close
2:54:43
to never sharing our Northern
Virginia reporter Maximus.
2:54:46
Philip has their stories from
Warrington, right have learned
2:54:50
his father Jovis is any ordinary
day it's dinnertime after
2:54:53
school, a moment between a
father and a son. He's
2:54:57
a lot more responsible In a
average teenager,
2:55:01
and that is quite the
understatement, is capable of
2:55:05
that something he didn't even
know. This was Thanksgiving in
2:55:09
the very same kitchen. Hours
before his dad had a heart
2:55:12
attack read says it all happened
so fast. His dad came downstairs
2:55:16
said he wasn't feeling well told
his son to call 911. And then he
2:55:20
collapsed falling face first in
the kitchen, eventually lying in
2:55:24
a pool of his own blood. That's
when read jumped into action.
2:55:28
I wasn't panicking. I wasn't
freaking out. It was just all
2:55:32
the adrenaline was like, do what
you got to do
2:55:34
with the guidance of the 911
operator read started CPR,
2:55:38
doctors told him he helped save
the life of the man who has
2:55:41
guided him being
2:55:42
an ex law enforcement officer
who's given CPR to someone
2:55:45
before I can understand how
difficult that was to do with a
2:55:49
stranger. I can't imagine what
he was going through having to
2:55:53
do it with me,
2:55:53
right graduates from cattle run
high school this weekend, his
2:55:56
dad will be there to celebrate
with him because of
2:55:59
him is a very special moment.
And I'm very, very happy that
2:56:04
I'm here to see
2:56:05
my dad is the most important
person in my life. I'm just
2:56:08
honored that I could do
something for him. And it
2:56:12
doesn't feel like it's
2:56:15
nearly as much as what he's done
for me. But, you know, I was
2:56:19
just doing something for a
moment, a moment that allowed
2:56:21
for more moments this father and
son nearly never got to share in
2:56:26
warranted. I love them very much
next morcilla DC News Now,
2:56:29
Adam Curry: I'm a little
conflicted by this good news
2:56:31
segment. Yeah. Why? Because it's
gory keels over face first blood
2:56:40
on the floor, and then the kid
goes, Oh, maybe I should do
2:56:42
something. Because that's why I
said that Danny sprang into
2:56:45
action. I'm a little conflicted.
I could use a little more
2:56:49
rainbows and butterflies next
time.

My name is Joe Biden. I work for

Joe is looking cool. He's gone
big time standing proud rising

in some polls.
3:01:35
Like my day pal.
3:01:38
And with drugs provided by the
White House physician will calm
3:01:42
down a young guy. Joe now has a
whopping boost of confidence.
3:01:47
For sure, Capitol Hill, stiff in
his determination and his living
3:01:51
large with an enormous swelling
of pride. When
3:01:54
I was vice president things are
kind of bad during the pandemic,
3:01:57
and he
3:01:58
just lacks the one thing every
man deserves a somewhat semi
3:02:01
functioning brain.
3:02:02
Every four years we have this
little thing called an erection.
3:02:06
Drugs from the White House are
not available in stores but
3:02:08
perhaps through a phone call to
Hunter Biden or a White House
3:02:11
staffer. You may get a trial
pack. Here is testimonial from
3:02:14
someone who did just that. Joe
Biden

that I am in fact erection I
3:02:21

became interventionist I know
