there is no admiring the
double-decker
buses you can't have double
decker buses
that's for us exclusively here
and then
the Gitmo nation east in the UK
yeah
well those days are over
so you have double-decker buses
in San
Francisco no San Francisco
still has a
nice reason they don't have
them it's
because everything's electro
there's all
electric buses and Bev's
double-decker
bus that can't make that little
suspension thing work I guess
sister no
it's in the East Bay AC transit
hmm
Alameda County Transit and they
use the
buses they a number of them
yeah they
use them to go across the bay
and they
get twice as many people in the
bus or
not twice as many but quite a
few more
so it's not for tourism it's
for actual
transportation yeah that's nice
yeah
it's about time yeah well they
got him
here too in London they've had
him there
forever and it just amazes me
how long
it takes for somebody else to
figure out
it's not a bad idea yeah well
they
certainly should do
triple-deckers by
now traffic here is unbelievable
it's gotten so bad there's so
much
that's happened since I was
last in the
UK like properly in the UK not
just
passing through there's
buildings here
that weren't here last time I
checked it
out how long ago was it that I
was
actually in in London I it's
been a long
time John it's been maybe see a
lot of
weird looking buildings too
well that
I'm looking right at that point
it was a
double-decker bus down the
freeway she's
is it red or is it red no it's
green and
white okay
there's a big pointy building I
mean I
used to know what what happened
to the
to the gherkin to the they tear
that one
down already the big pickle
yeah what
happened to that one I can't
see it
anywhere still there is it
behind the
big pointy one now there must
be there
must be five or six different
buildings
just now anyway yeah we're here
looks
like it's falling over yeah I
can see
that one from here that's
that's kind of
kind of weird yeah but we chose
this
location specifically because
it was in
walking distance of the No
Agenda London
meetup that we held yesterday
oh so
you're in the Paddington area I
am just
just on the cusp of the
Paddington area
and and in here's very
multi-culti
though extremely here's the
here's the
best laid plan so we get this
hotel I
mean it is I see on the map
it's a four
minute walk and of course I did
not
bring the smartphone and I'm I'm
hell-bent on even though you
know I like
ah you know should we and we
don't we
should have some navigation
capabilities
I'm like no no I can map this
out in the
room and I can write down the
directions
I'll be fine
four minutes I swear to god it
took us
15 it's the map skills they
really do
diminish over time if you don't
keep him
up yeah so I went to that same
place we
had a yes is the Victoria in
Paddington
yeah we went there and I walked
I know
how to get I knew how to get
there
without it I didn't have my
smartphone I
was you know we had that much
burners
that we could use in the area
and so I
knew how to get there from the
hook from
the hotel and it was like you
go down
the Main Street that goes past
Victoria
Station you take a right mhm
you can
just keep walking it bang you
run right
into this right there exactly
so I left
the event and I figured well
I'm just
gonna go back to where I came
and for
some reason I took the wrong
Street back
it wasn't quite that bad yeah
so we
arrived 7:30 a.m. yesterday
morning from
our direct flight on Norwegian
air from
Austin first time we took this
I have to
say very impressed by the
budget airline
ok who flies we need a report
on this
airline confronted with it yeah
a short
short report this is now
American
Airlines / British Airways has
a daily
flight from Austin to Heathrow
and it's
very expensive and no matter no
matter
what class you're in it's
expensive
Norwegian competes with that
there a
budget airline in and actually
I think
they're now the biggest airline
from
Europe to New York that was
that was
kind of their first thing this
is the
plane with the the red nose in
fact the
callsign is even red nose and
then the
flight number because there's a
lot of
alcoholics oh yeah oh yeah
celebrating
celebrating so it's it's
probably about
40% cheaper than British
Airways and
they fly the Dreamliner the
seven seven
eight seven yeah nice aircraft
I had not
been on this yet you had I
thought you
were raving about it before no
no no it
was that was the the big Airbus
I flew
on that but the Dreamliner is
besides
being a plastic plane which is
not my
favorite yeah I thought you
were never
gonna fly on one because it's
all
plastic yeah well I had to get
here one
way the other I can't afford it
kind of
British Airways is a is Airbus
usually
too but it's just it's
fantastic I've
very impressed that service you
know you
don't get a lot of frills and
you can
order extra stuff on board and
they
don't have a charge for
everything my
understanding is that they
charge for
yes they do they do they charge
for a
blanket they charge for water
are you to
go to the bathroom no they
don't charge
they don't charge was it don't
charge
you to go to the bathroom now
I thought had a coin-operated
door huh
good try
it was mister I was misled by
the staff
at British Air well yeah
you wonder why now I have to
say the
keeper has been really smart
um she is hell-bent and
determined on
letting everybody know that
this is our
honeymoon
so right away in Norwegian air
she says
you know as we get our glass of
water
you said it's her honeymoon oh
that's
great yeah and yep lo and
behold as show
up two little bottles of
champagne well
here these are for you take
these this
is it this is actually almost a
travelling tip and if we do
that's a
great idea and the fact is that
they did
Norwegian air is notorious for
not
giving away the exactly and it
was
champagne it was brutal
champagne year
wasn't yeah the little mini
bottle well
so then we as we laughed like a
couple
of diligence
well if to mid 50 year olds can
they get
away with it you know he's like
yeah
we're newlyweds there was no
question
you know there was there was no
show me
your papers please
travelin chip is worth the
price of a
donation and it gets better and
so when
we here at the hotel of course
when you
when you arrive all right I
want to talk
about the entry process into
the UK
something else I hadn't
witnessed this
is completely biometry sized
and not
automatic
it's better than we have it's
better
than world entry you just walk
up to the
thing you shove your passport it
registers your face takes a
picture for
all eternity so we can track you
throughout the entire country
but you're
done yeah it's pretty pretty
fast no
interviews no no no nothing get
your bag
walk through the green the
green alley
perfect so we take a character
the chips
yes so back to the tip so we're
the
airport to the hotel and the
hotel of
course you know are yeah well
obviously
check-in as a checkout is it
noon
check-in is it - it's 9 o'clock
and
we're here so yeah and the
keeper does
it have well this is our
honeymoon this
is great we'll have some
champagne you
for you
while we're working on your
room you
know this typically takes a lot
longer
but we're gonna work on it for
you and
so we went out into Hyde Park
and it was
there was this window of two
hours of
really beautiful weather so we
saw the
the Albert Memorial the Italian
gardens
came back around 11:30 our room
was
already done yes we know you're
you're
newlyweds your room is done and
this
isn't almost three hours before
they
would have to have it done we
have our
free champagne yeah you know
they do the
the nice love Swan origami with
the
towels on the bed have you ever
seen
this no and it just works you
can't go
to the same places probably but
so this
is yeah this is a great travel
tip tsa
in the US did something new to
me though
this was as you know whenever I
travel
with teens your honeymoon no
maybe maybe
that's what happened yes of
course
whenever I travel with Tina we
both get
pre-check even though she's
never
registered etc so and if I
travel alone
even though unregistered have a
number I
don't so we go through yeah so
this
pre-check you just throw your
bags on I
have to take laptop side I've
got
thinking I've got the whole
studio
everything as usual I take my
Nokia my
literal cell phone throw it in
my jacket
the jacket goes through you go
through
the magnetometer cuz you don't
go
through the body scanner and
the guy
says let me see your let me see
your
phone and I think he's like I
feel like
this is a joke or something
like I can't
go through the I didn't take it
said I
don't have my phone he says I
saw you
put it in your bag I said put
him I was
confused I thought it was
joking or okay
and so I get my the Nokia and I
hand it
to him and he looks at it kind
of weird
and then he swabs it and they
were doing
this for every other passenger
this is
new I've never had the cell
phone swab
you
huh well there must be an alert
at or
something what someone with a
cell phone
bomb well I've it makes a lot
of sense
if you want I mean if you want
to know
if someone is being in contact
with any
type of explosives the best way
is to
get something you know like
they're so
fun which you'd be handling
you'd have
it up to your face that's maybe
that's
it yeah secondary yeah cuz you
yeah
that's that's pretty smart
yeah yeah anyway so that that's
what
that was um let me see do have
anything
well then you know obviously
then we
have the the no I've talked to
these LT
swappers the number of times
about what
they're looking for and they
got all
these new tests and they
checked things
out and I forget what I get
something
checked recently that was
didn't make a
lot of sense to me
and oh yeah I brought it oh
yeah it's
coming back from Austin from
your
wedding yeah and I brought a
bunch of
seasonings and they were all
they had
the check they've swab the crap
out of
my barbecue seasonings so
slightly
explosive anyway yes out out
the other
end but explosive nonetheless a
oh
[Music]
that's right the No Agenda
meetup just a
few words about our meetup at
the
Victoria and will be thanking
people
later on
who gave on-the-spot donations
I was
very surprised I didn't really
know what
to expect the whole thing was
organized
by the Earl of Tennessee Sir
Patrick
Coble who flew in from Berlin
where he
was doing some penetration
testing yeah
actually I think he was doing a
see does
speeches about penetration
testing -
yeah he's got good stories yes
and and
just a big thanks to him
and it's so interesting that
you know
our Earl from Tennessee is put
this
together and they were when we
walked in
just we were supposed to be
from 6:00 to
9:30 we're more or less on time
by about five five guys there
including
mr. Patrick like oh this is
kind of cool
you know and just
we're chatting and John before
you know
it we had 50 people there it
got really
it was fun we would just you do
a
headcount you came up with 50
that's he
I didn't do it I was unable to
do an
exact headcount the the picture
at the
end of the evening which never
includes
everybody was over 40 so yeah I
think we
were at least 50 maybe a little
bit more
and and this was in my
experience the
most diverse group of people
we've ever
had I mean white black brown gay
straight old young Tourette's
autism
Asperger conservative-liberal
everything
was represented huh yeah much
much I
mean I was like wow this is
like the
United Colors of Benetton a lot
of dudes
named Ben but also there was
quite a
number of women there of course
Dame
he's a bill who's our first
female
listener and she would mean a
lot of
people who have been listening
since
episode one and universally
this is what
we heard from everybody I love
this
Meetup
I love meetups with no agenda
people
because I can speak frankly
without
having to be worried about
overstepping
triggering saying you're wrong
and but
there's somebody with a stick
up their
ass but it's it's like I here's
here's
what I heard from almost
everybody I
can't say what I think at my
work I
can't say what I think around
my friends
I can't say what I think or my
opinion
at school with my family and
people felt
an incredible sense of
community and by
no means were these all KKK Nazi
quadroon all right nut jobs
this is just
we had multiple people who work
at the
BBC my favorite has to be the
gay
magistrate from Manchester
um who by the way worked for
Gove
Michael Gove and I'd said
straight up I
said did he ruin the education
system in
the UK I said no no no did you
have to
go and get his coke today no no
no just
a lot of a lot of good
information and
and there was at a certain
point we were
so we're taking selfies and you
know
we're deaf we're rowdy and
we're taking
over this place and it's packed
and it's
drizzling outside so it has
this perfect
London you know pub vibe and
I'm taking
some pictures with some of our
producers
and behind me there's a couple
sitting
in kind of a booth and they've
just been
sitting there for a while and I
felt
that I knock something over as
I backed
up and I'm like oh shit I turn
around
and that's oh
did I knock something and I
thought was
there drink but no it's just
the menu
and they look at me and they
say can we
ask you a question
yeah so well we're from Florida
and we
just got here we've never been
to London
and we wanted to get a real
feeling for
a typical English pub who are
you guys
what kind of Club is this they
could not
figure out what we were about
and I said
yes and who are you what yeah
this is
that I can assess appreciate
that I mean
it's it's non-standard here you
created
a non-standard situation and
they were
brought into and they they were
baffled
yeah sure and of course they
were
immediately hit in the mouth
and I'm
sure they're listening right
now so
plenty of plenty of stories and
I'm sure
we're talking about that in
shows to
come and we have some donations
that
we'll talk about I just what
were on the
topic at simultaneously we had
the
Oklahoma City meetup which was
organized
by Cassidy Eastwood and I just
wanted to
read her report he says that
there were
about a dozen of us ranging
from 24
years old to 70ish sorry Jimmy
not sure
of your age we even had a night
in our
present surprise and he
surprised us
with magic tricks I didn't know
we had a
magician we all
and over his night ring people
came from
all over the state even one
drove up
from Dallas the first question
asked to
each arrival was how did you
happen upon
no agenda and the best response
was
given by Air Force John who was
looking
for podcasts to listen to and
did a
search for best podcast G guess
what the
first result was the best
podcast in the
universe which is an accurate
search
it's been using Bing precisely
he also
made a point to make his first
donation
oh we all discussed religion
politics
education and the general state
of the
world at large over appetizers
and
cocktails there were a few
strange looks
from surrounding tables I
greatly
enjoyed talking to people whom
I knew
were open-minded I could feel
the
serotonin releasing in my brain
as I
conversed with this group of
lovely
people but one attendee even
said and I
quote I love this because I
know that no
one here will judge me even if
we
disagree on something and that
is again
this is the the constant
observation
from everybody who attends a No
Agenda
mido and so we encourage more
of those
No Agenda meetups calm alright
news from London Bojo has the
mojo mojo
Bojo Boris Johnson has the Mojo
so I
have abortion Singh clip from
the great
Boris Johnson hater okay gene
so bright
let me just do a little
background for
people don't listen to LBC
James O'Brien
is this a remainer uh he is
hates the
Brits yeah
he's really he's a talk show
guy whose
ID is one of the most skilled
at making
you look like an idiot if
that's what he
wants mm-hmm because he in fact
he's so
good at I would I think people
who do a
show or making a mistake they
shouldn't
do it this just boycott him and
he hates
everybody he hates Faraj he
hates Boris
Johnson but he's got the goods
on Boris
Johnson and and it's just minor
goods
that seems to me but the way he
presents
it with his over his repetitious
approach to slamming somebody's
slandering them his is a gift
and here
we go Boris Johnson is a man
who's been
fired from jobs for lying about
quotes
allegedly from his own
grandfather
Godfather I beg your pardon
Boris Johnson fired from the
times from
making up quotes from his own
Godfather
okay lied to party leaders lied
to wives
like two mistresses went to
court to try
to stop you from finding out
about a
little girl that he'd fathered
out of
wedlock he actually went to
court so
that you wouldn't find out
about his
appalling sexual incontinence
and I mean
it when I say because I used to
go with
sort of conservative coffee
mornings and
things like that well I'd go
with with
my mum sometimes it would more
of a
social occasion and I always
had this
sort of begrudging suburban
respect for
that type of Tory a Shia Tory
because
although I felt they were a
little bit
immune to the suffering of
others in
some cases they did seem to
subscribe to
values values you could loosely
describe
as Christian Christian Concern
vut ISM and that would be
absolutely
outraged by the idea of a man
going to
court to stop you finding out
that he'd
fathered a little girl outside
wedlock
while lying to it come on
that's not
what Trump paid off stormy
Daniels for I
mean where's this guy the times
have
changed wives and lying to his
mistresses lying to his voters
lying to
his employers lying to his
party leaders
lying to his constituents lying
to his
interviewers there's a
recording of him
that I'll play later in the
program of
him colluding with a now
convicted
criminal to get a journalist
beaten up
yes you heard me correctly it's
on tape
oh boy it's Johnson agreeing to
help a
former school friend from Eton
to get
hold of the address of a
journalist
because the former school
friend from
Eton wanted to have him
battered so you
see what I mean I just
mentioned any one
of those six seven eight
transgressions
and theoretically from where I
sit that
should be the end of it for a
conservative leadership
contender but
it's not
which I think signals the end
of any
claim to moral high-ground or
morality
from the Conservative Party
what that's
really interesting because he
is the
number one in the first round
of voting
by by a large margin let's take
a look
at what a couple to deconstruct
a little
bit about the way Bryan does
this ad
deaf but he does not want to
see Boris
Johnson as the actually
probably does
because it'd be great for a
show right
once he starts off with this
horrible
misquoting of his god father
something
and making up quotes and he
makes takes
that to an extreme as that's
some sort
of a horrible thing to do maybe
was a
misunderstanding is a million
things
that could be they could
explain it he
uses the word colluding for a
reason and
then he says the way he
actually because
he says he lied to him and
lighting him
alive baba goes on and on and
on and
then he says just which I
thought was
just typical of Bryan you could
take any
of these six seven eight
transgressions
and apply them to Trump
well I didn't say that but he's
me so
you can take any of them and
then you
can't understand what the two
servitors
have lost all their credibility
because
of these six seven or eight
transgressions what six seven
or eight
transgressions he mention two
two
citations one misquoting his
godfather
and having an illegitimate
child that he
apparently went to court over
and i
don't know that this details
behind it
but I don't here six seven or
eight
transgressions this is a
horrible person
this this interviewer this
James O'Brien
guy I've listened I'm
fascinated by his
skills there's a verbal
horrible guy
this fifty seconds left on the
clip we
play that for if there is you
listen to
this program on a regular basis
it
became inevitable when they
introduced
base lawyers to the public life
as soon
as farad's is allowed to speak
unchallenged undiluted lies and
nonsense
the Conservative Party is
finished so
when they chose to invite him
on to
their bus to get brexit over
the line
that was the death knell for
any claims
in the Tory Party to integrity
or
probity but for the very simple
reason
that if one liar goes
unchallenged lies
move into the mainstream which
is how
you have a man who conspired to
have a
journalist beaten up who went
to court
to stop you finding out about
his
daughter born out of wedlock
who's lied
to both of his wives all of his
mistresses every constituent
every
employer every party leader
every
colleague every interview every
journalist he's ever
encountered he's
not just lied to them he's
actively
agitated to deceive them no
it's an
outrage I tell you came up with
three
couple more which I like to
look into
but it's besides the point is
so Johnson
is being attacked by the left
and this
guy is representative of that
and I
still wonder whether you know
he he had
his shot he could have been the
prime
minister a lot of people
believe before
Teresa may stepped in front of
the line
and took the job but I don't
know I
don't know if Jonesy
I don't know I have no idea
what's
people think today well he's a
good guy
should be a prime minister well
as I
said the the main the Evening
Standard
which is edited by jaw is the
guy George
Osborne remember George Osborne
yeah he
was the what was he was he
Chancellor I
don't remember what he did so
he edits
the Evening Standard and that
was the
headline when we arrived was Bo
Joe's
got the Mojo um so and I'd
looking at
the first round of voting I'm
not quite
sure how the whole system works
how many
rounds there are but he had I
think 114
and it was was it um who's the
Jeremy
guy hunt yeah yeah I think he
was number
two truly hunt yeah with with
42 votes
or whatever it is so I was
prepping the
show so I couldn't follow all
of it but
it'll be interesting to see
there's uh
is a lot going on here people
at the
meetup but I'll say this is you
know
we're completely effed they've
kind of
given a given up on it who
about the getting out of the
house the
brexit chitchat is they're
gonna get out
or not
I think the universally people
think
do-over is in the cards and
then and
then and no brings it and I did
want to
mention I think I sent you a
link to it
the BBC had a two hour or two
part each
part one-hour documentary about
which
was filmed with permission from
ghee for
harsh thought and he's the the
crazy
gap-toothed guy from the
European
Parliament with the near the
Belgian you
speed and was he belgian
present Prime
Minister it was big Wigan in
Belgium
when they still had a
government and he
allowed someone from a Belgian
cameraman
to shoot a documentary and and
this is
inside his office the car the
train late
at night all the swear word it
actually
made me wonder how much they
didn't put
in it and he didn't really
disclose this
to anybody who was around him
at the
time and he was the the
coordinator of
the brexit steering committee
for you
know these two and a half years
or two
years and it's a fascinating
look at the
other side that we never really
hear
much about did you did you see
this
everybody didn't have time to
see it now
it is I mean you can watch it
for sure
now you can't really pull any
clips from
it but when at a certain point
you see
that and it's you know they're
in the
European Parliament building in
Brussels
and they go to Strasbourg and
you kind
of get a little idea of how
that works
and there's a lot of food where
every
single shot there's always food
there if
they're eating their drink and
they do
meetings and they drink wine at
the
meetings which is kind of a I
think a
good thing but it's it's
definitely for
bohtan in the United States
yeah well the link is in the
show notes
it's well worth watching
particularly
get like the the speech writers
who were
then you know as it gets very
close like
they're all jacked up and GD
about it
it's it's a cool thing it's
it's fun to
watch because we never get that
side of
it and certainly not to that
degree I
again I wonder what wasn't put
in it
and the question for you though
there
was an article that the New
York Times
published headline that Google
made 4.7
billion dollars from the news
industry
and now it's time for the news
industry
to take it back that wasn't the
exact
headline did you follow any of
this it's
been debated debated a little
bit and
most people think it's bogus
well I thought it was
scandalous at the
New York Times first of all
they didn't
really even disclose that this
was a
news industry lobbying group
that
they're a part of which is the
what is
it news it's the news media
Alliance who
are lobbying for House
Resolution 2050
for the journalism competition
and
preservation act of 2019 that
was
nowhere to be found in their
article of
course not the New York Times
they don't
they don't let you know what
they're up
to anymore
it's a horrible operation well
I'd like
to know what your Lib joes
thought of
this in particular the
assertion made
based on a comment from Marissa
Meyer in
2008 was she offhandedly
although it was
I think in an investor
situation so it
can be taken with some degree
of of
certainty that in 2008 Google
News had
made approximately a hundred
million
dollars from News and that was
the guy
was the whole quote and they
extrapolated that by adding ten
years to
it and said that looks like
four point
seven billion is what we're not
making
and Google is stealing from us
and now
they have this lobbying group
it is a
501 C 4 and it's the lobbying
for the
passage of house resolution to
build
journalism competition and
preservation
act of 2019 which would allow
all news
publishers which by the way you
don't we
wouldn't qualify for because
you have to
have professional editors on
payroll you
have to have at least a million
people interacting with your
website on
a monthly basis otherwise okay
yeah if
you have that many people that
you just
described you don't need help
from the
government this you know just I
know
where the stamp is from well
let me just
tell you what what the what the
plan is
the plan is they want 48 months
so they
want what is that four years
they want
four years to to have anti anti
trust
anti competition laws
what does the word not apply to
the news
industry so they can collude
with each
other over four-year period
to find out how they can screw
Google
and Facebook back that's in
essence what
it is they they want to be able
to work
together as a group and figure
out how
to get the money back this is
the kind
of idiots that are running the
business
first of all the stems from the
Canadians who decided to put a
fun
together and has rice papers a
bunch of
free money that's right
so they want to say well you
know
they're doing it up there
they're
getting free money we should do
the same
thing the second thing is is
this
nonsense about Yahoo and it
being
extrapolate Yahoo is a news
organization
in a lot of ways one whole
division they
take the Associated Press feed
they pay
for it they're not they have
writers
that they pay to pay money to
the Google
Yahoo sport which is very
competitive
it's probably as competitive as
as ESPN
or as a Sports Illustrated when
it comes
to print
I'd like to smell that about
that I'd
like to hold your I'd like to
interrupt
your analysis
I'd like to interrupt your
analysis
because I want this to continue
after I
play these two clips which
explain a
little bit more about how they
really
feel about it though so this is
a bill
that's called the sizzling bill
representative David Cicilline
here he
explains briefly what the the
news media
Alliance is about with HR 2054
this is a
really important issue for
everyone in
our country because we all
recognize
that our democracy is strongest
when we
have a free and diverse press
that
informed citizens holds
concentrated
power accountable and roots out
corruption as justice Louis
Brandeis
wrote in 1927 those who won our
independence believe that public
discussion is a political duty
that the
greatest threat to freedom is an
uninformed citizenry and that
the
freedom of thought and speech
are
indispensable to the discovery
and
spread of political truths but
today as
you all know these bedrock
constitutional values are facing
existential threats
information dominant platforms
last year
Facebook and Google amassed
more than 60
billion dollars from online
advertising
the majority of online ad
revenue and
despite record levels of online
readership news publishers have
seen a
steep decline in revenue during
the rise
of these technology giants the
bottleneck is bleeding news
publishers
dry and you see evidence all
across this
country and in the absence of a
competitive marketplace
newsrooms across
the country are laying off
reporters and
editorial staff or folding
altogether
this is happening to legacy news
companies and digital
publishers alike
there is no question that we've
reached
a tipping point what's really
important
to remember is this is not just
a
marketplace that's not working
in
providing an absence of
competition
where we're sort of losing the
have sale
of widgets this is about the
very
foundation of our democracy
access to
reliable trustworthy local news
this
trend continues we risk
permanently
compromising the news
organizations that
are essential to uncovering
corruption
holding the government and
powerful
corporations accountable and
sustaining
our democracy oh yes the old
democracy
what has never mentioned is
that they
never newspapers never made
money off of
news ever and they blew it you
were I
think weren't you you and I
both a part
of the of the Newmark
conversation yeah
that with Hearst no it's with
was not
rehearsed was it there was the
publisher
that was married to
what's-her-name the
actress
yeah the Sharon Stone yeah
what's his
mr. mr. mr. Stolley Bronfman
mr. stone
Rothman bro Bronstein Bronson
Braun from
Bronfman Brompton no no no
Bronstein
Bronstein Braun from you're
thinking
that guy were used to run
Seagram's yeah
isn't that the guy didn't
wasn't he also
married to Sharon Stone I think
they're
telling the story
we will tell dick you're right
Bronstein
I'm sorry
yes yeah your teen Phil
Bronstein yeah
I'm wrong I'm wrong yes bronzy
your name
yes okay so Bronstein is in he
tells the
story says that in the early
days of the
net
don't call the net Craig
Newmark comes
in the guy who says does
Craig's List
and it was it was in the 90s
and it was
you know just making money off
of
classifieds it was making money
off of
classified locally was doing
these freak
and they were free classifieds
and his
whole Terry was you just give
away the
class because the computer
you're you
know it's text you know you
didn't take
a lot to to store it and and
send it
around it's not a lot of
overhead in
terms of resources of the
internet
resources and so his idea was
to get
free classifieds to everybody
and then
let people pay for job listings
and
things that are a little more
you know
that can actually bring in some
cash and
he he sorted reverse the whole
model
about how classifies work and
so he goes
in there and talks to Bronstein
I guess
their honor who else was at the
meeting
but he says he comes in and
offers them
the whole Craigslist model if
like two
million dollars or something
some
ridiculously low amount a
figure but if
he said a figure wasn't much no
but he
said but he offered him the
model and
they said we know how to do
classifieds
we don't need your help you
dumb shit
get out of here yep and so they
kicked
him out pretty much I'm not
sure they
didn't say that but there's
something
like that and this I've seen
this happen
in other situations and I also
saw it
happen with classifieds when I
was a fly
on the wall at the Media Lab in
Massachusetts where they were
where
Hearst Corporation was meeting
with the
Media Lab people to discuss
something of
night and that sure wixi what
it was
anymore but something like that
was
brought up in that meeting too
and there
was the same kind of response
you know
we know what we're doing yeah I
had the
same when I pitched before we
were think
new ideas is on ramp we pitched
Tribune
Company in Chicago you know that
beautiful building they have
there with
the radio station was still
down the
bottom of this still there and
we got
laughed out of the building
we have a story server wasn't
that the
thing story server what was it
gosh what
was that that content
management system
vignette vignette
yes vignette story server like
you
couldn't unique classifies we
got an
idea for that that's how you've
been
making on and then this is a
new world
we know how to make money off
of news
well that never made money off
of news
it's just that it was always the
classifieds that was the main
thing
classifieds went away that's
when the
problem started but oh no now
all of a
sudden it's no I disagree with
that and
I think that's a myth I think
this comes
up a lot I think it came up in
these
clips it you have the problem
started
with television and it started
a long
time ago and you can look at
the curves
the growth curves and
everything else
with the newspaper business
they don't
like to talk about it but
that's where
it started television came in
with the
hourly report that nightly news
and all
you Cronkite the two Huntley and
Brinkley and those guys came in
and they
just started taking the taken
the
impetus away from the
newspapers who
really had to compete with the
television guys who were
stealing a lot
from those are the guys that
were
stealing from television if you
or I'm
sorry they were stealing from
newspapers
have you worked at a radio
station in
the fifties or sixties everyone
will say
the same thing we'd get the
newspaper we
clipped the dog articles that
were
interesting and we run him as
news right
okay and they where was the
lawsuits
today where was the big stink
now they
got ripped off left and right
during the
end they got they started
shrinking and
shrinking to the point where
and it was
a halt it was pre-internet is
when they
had something called a joint
operating
agreement which all the
newspapers
jumped in on when they gave
this I this
is the last time that they
soaked the
government so they say let's
take a
joint Optus to make these joint
operating agreements because
especially
because the television the
evening
newspapers were all dying
because the
evening newspaper was the one
that you'd
read underground but once the
evening
news came on nobody was reading
the
evening newspapers so they had
to dream
up this joint operating
agreement
locally it was a San Francisco
Examiner
and the San Francisco Chronicle
and it
was in Chicago and Detroit
every place
around the country did this they
joined forces because they
needed to and
they kind of you know started
emphasizing the morning paper
more they
shared resources and shared
profits and
that was the first idea that
was the
first collusion that they
needed to do
they were never competitive
with it they
never could figure out how to
do this
right and they've done failing
and
failing and failing and
continued to
fail and when the internet came
along
and took the classifieds away
that just
was the icing on the cake for
the just
the demise of the whole
operation
because they couldn't figure
out what
they would they're incompetent
there's
something that they do in the
United
Kingdom on television
late-night so
which would typically be our
our news
timeslot maybe ten right I
think I know
you like I agree this is a
great day I
love this they sit down with
two people
it's and these guests they they
very
sometimes it's an editor of a
newspaper
it's politicians can be someone
from
show business and they go
through all
the papers that will be
published in the
morning and they show the you
know the
headlines and they have an
analysis and
they talk about what's in the
paper I
think that's a I've always
thought that
was fantastic it's very
engaging to
watch and of course you don't
have to
buy the damn paper the next day
well if
it's done right and I think the
Brits do
it right I know that the most
people in
the United States can get these
reports
via Sky News on Pluto the Sky
News does
it very well and they've been
doing that
for gosh but BBC does it too
don't they
don't they have a version of it
on BBC
or any Sky they probably do but
I knew
someone that impresses me the
most and
you have to remember the Sky
News was
once part of the Murdoch Empire
so
they're not killing themselves
when
Murdoch suppose a newspaper guy
David
this was a form of promotion
for the
papers because they go on about
something that might interest
you and
then the British and I think
you might
pick up the paper what makes it
even
British newspaper business is a
lot
different than ours what makes
it even
more interesting is that News
Corp is
heavily represented in this
news media
Alliance and the only other
clip I have
is the Shortland from tony bush
she is the what is she she's the
government affairs executive at
News
Corporation what I think has
been
missing in the discussion up
until
recently is the fact that
Google and
Facebook are in the advertising
business
Google made 135 billion dollars
last
year off of advertising
Facebook made 56
billion dollars of of
advertising the
entire digital advertising
market is
around two hundred thirty seven
billion
so they've taken 195 billion
out of it
which leaves around 30 billion
for
everybody else including the
newspaper
industry and that is really the
crux of
the problem that we're facing
which is
the system is broken the inter
trust
laws have not been enforced
during the
evolution of the tech platforms
and we
need to both investigate that
but in the
interim we need a solution and
the
shalini bill is really that
solution
okay so we can collude with
each other
for two for four years and come
up with
a way to screw them back hey
not gonna
happen no these guys there's a
dumbs
versus the smarts and this
nonsense that
Google is you know you go to
Google to
go to Google News calm and you
can see
we're good there's that which
is not
even an ad on that entire page
he mean
news.google.com do what I say
Google
News com let me see what Google
Beck
let's see if that is anything
oh go
straight to cnet.com that's
funny
yeah news.com is no embracing
it yes
they bought it right away
anyway the they don't run that
no they
actually do not run advertising
on the
news that's something that
Google is
very vocal about now we don't
run ads on
that no they make their money
on search
well and this is if you're
searching for
some news story and you're on
the page
you're gonna get some ads and
it's got
nothing to do it's not taking
revenue
these guys are shooting
themselves in
the foot just the same thing
they happen
in Belgium I think or what one
European
country remember this was about
ten
years ago they were all upset
all Google
indexing impaired the index
paper and then they're making
people
link to it's then their people
are
coming from these links so we
don't like
that because we don't have
control of it
so we don't want Google linking
to us
anymore so they stopped linking
to him
and they went out of business
something
I did not clear what the Google
link
dummy
something I I didn't clip but
there was
part of the part of what they
were
talking about this News
Alliance panel
was well you know when you
click on the
story Google gets all the
information
but what are you in newspapers
you in
the news business you in the
information
about people business so you
can turn it
around and do something with
that and
they all fell for the whole amp
thing
remember that AM yeah you got
to get
Google amp because then it
loads faster
and it's fantastic and Google
amp means
that everything you do runs
through
Google you dipshit
well yeah yeah we're all on
Google amp
and they do the same thing when
Facebook
was like yeah we're all about
news
remember this Google amp yeah I
think
it's still used geez yeah I was
am
amplify or something everyone's
oh yeah
because it preloads and it's
compressed
on both sides and thank you
google and a
Facebook you recall Facebook so
changing
the algo for news everyone oh
yeah great
and they change it back to
friends and
family like boo yes accelerated
mobile
pages that's what amp stood for
Thank
You troll room for phones yeah
was for
mobile for mobile to make
anything well
I looked at the most recent
mary meeker
entered a state of the Internet
report
which is three hundred and
thirty three
pages long this year
I'm glad she's doing some with
their
time everything is stagnated
revenue is
not really dropped here and
they're
stagnant stagnant stagnant
everything is
kind of plateauing but mobile
is now
double desktop it's is it's just
surpassed everything which I'm
sure the
a lot of people are happy about
because
we want these spy devices to be
on your
person at all time so we know
exactly
what you're doing that's the
real that's
the real juice they got
not the news well this has been
predicted of course for years
that
mobile would take over yeah
most of the
action on the Internet and okay
so right
along with this yeah I think we
should
do a quick little call back to
the ad
pocalypse deconstruction that
we did on
the last episode which I think
most
people appreciated and I think
at least
the feedback I've been getting
is huh I
really didn't look at it in
just the
pure commercial sense that
these guys
are in competition for the
advertising
dollars which is what you
literally just
heard from the entire news
business it's
like there are not voting and
weren't
advertising and that's not fair
I have
to work on him Susan Wojcicki
who is the
CEO of YouTube in what I
believe is a a
crisis move showed up on recode
for a
45-minute interview which is on
YouTube
and recode is owned by Vox
there are a
lot of Vox journals there and
even the
guy who was doing the interview
I think
he's he's how if he's just a
recode guy
or if he's a higher up inbox
and talking
about this ad pocalypse and I
had to
pull a couple of clips because
it's so
beautiful the things that are
being said
here but the first thing which
I think
that we talked about this that
kind of
got snowed under is the whole
you know
controversy over Crowder and
Carlos
Bozza
was about LGBTQ and it was
taking place
during Pride Month and you know
it's
unbelievable during Pride Month
someone
said something horrible about a
gay man
on YouTube and this is the
first thing
out of her mouth
no if I hadn't I love those
setups here
we go
the first thing out of her mouth
of things happen last week and
it's
great to be here and talk about
what
happened but I do want to start
because
I know that the decision that
we made
was very hurtful to the LGBTQ
community
and that was not our intention
at all
and just that context frame was
not
following us what decision this
was yeah
so let me let me I'll go into
that but I
thought it was really important
to be
upfront about that and to say
that was
not our intention I'm really
sorry about
that and but I do want to
explain why we
made the decision that we did
as well as
give information about the
other line
are you just heckling the clip
or her
what are you doing
condescending valley
girl up talk borderline vocal
fry' voice
of hers is enough to drive
anyone crazy
she's in her mid-40s and this
must be
Amelia thing she just
celebrated 20
yoli's totally yes 20 years at
Google 20
years at Google she just
celebrated two
decades so it's Millia and
that's how we
talk I'm going on so really
there were
two different things that
happened at
the same time and the first one
I'll
talk with is we made a really
significant change involving
hate speech
that the first one that I will
I'll talk
with yeah I know she does a lot
of this
stuff I'll play it again
Google Talk some google
hyphenated gugak
or is it one word I think two
different
things that happened at the
same time
and the first one I'll talk
with is we
made a really see I think she's
just she
does a lot of this she wants to
say
something different like the
first thing
I will address with you or I
don't know
but her brain was behind her
mouth that
this is something we had been
working on
for months
so I'll just preset this up
apparently
it was a great coincidence that
they had
been
looking for months on new
hate-speech
rules for their platform and on
the very
same day they'd launch it this
controversy starts it's I mean
it's just
unbelievable and we launched it
on
Wednesday of last week this is
a series
of policies we did you've been
rolling
out so oh yes so so we've been
making
lots of different policy
changes on
YouTube and we made this this
past week
we made a change in how we
handle hate
speech that took months and
months of
work and hundreds of people we
had
working on that and that was a
very
significant launch and a really
important one
I love how they've clearly been
able to
come up with rules and she
details them
in a moment
about hate speech something
that legally
cannot even be done but yeah
okay and
what we did with that launch is
we made
a couple big changes one of
them was to
make it so that if there's a
video that
alleges that some race or
religion or
gender or group protected group
is
superior in some way and uses
that to
justify discrimination or
exclusion that
would now no longer be allowed
on our
platform similarly if they if
this if
you had a religion or race and
they
allege that inferiority that
another
group was inferior and they use
that to
justify discrimination in one
way these
changes that we made yeah so I
can't say
hey 49ers stink they're
inferior to the
Raiders I think you're very
can't have
so Sports Talk is now
eliminating I do
think you're very close he or
she
expands on these regs examples
would be
like race X is superior to x2 is
superior to Y and therefore Y
should be
segregated okay that sounds
clear to me
I'm all good if you're X or Y
then
you're in trouble this is
literally her
example examples would be like
race X is
superior to x2 is superior to Y
and
therefore Y I can see I can see
the
googors I can see them on the
whiteboard
okay here's race X ray
and why we do the route square
root of
that and these guys everything's
mathematics to them everything
they even
hate speech oh we got a formula
for that
is it weird to you that you had
to make
a rule that said this shouldn't
be
allowed and this wasn't covered
either
by an existing role that you
had to tell
your community look this is not
acceptable well so actually
it's a lot
of this you know if we're a
global
company of course and so if you
look at
European laws because there are
a number
of countries that I have a
really strong
hate speech law and which
country has
very strong hate speech laws
she's
referred I know she's referring
to she's
referring to Germany's uh you
can't talk
Nazi stuff you can't have a
swastika and
there's some in the UK there's
some some
of that in the UK but I don't
know about
very strong but okay this
country this a
lot of this country had never
been
allowed in those countries but
had
actually been allowed in the US
and and
you know many other countries
and so
what we had actually done with
it a few
years ago is we had actually
had limited
features so what she's saying
actually
is that they actually already
had these
limitation features on hate
speech
actually and they had actually
made that
less restrictive in the u.s.
all they
had to do was flips which
apparently
meaning that it wasn't in the
recommendations
it wasn't monetized I had an
interstitial in front of it to
say that
it was content that we found
offensive
and when we did that we
actually reduce
the views to it by 80 percent
it's
interesting what she's saying
here is
the way they have their system
actually
already working actually is
they would
not put an ad in front of it
they would maybe even put an
interstitial which would be
they would
that she means a warning and
what they
would do is they would reduce
its
viewership or its surfacing as a
recommendation by up to 80%
notice not a
hundred percent not kicking you
off why
because she does want people to
view you
your video and click on other
things
where they can make advertising
money
and that is explained in a
moment but
another example we found that
it was
effective but we really wanted
to take
this additional step and we
made this
step on Wednesday we also added
which is
really important to a few other
important
two protected groups so we
added caste
because YouTube has become so
significant in India and then
we also
added victims of verified
violent events
so like saying the Holocaust
didn't
happen or Sandy Hook didn't
have it also
became violations of our
policies and so
this was happening on Wednesday
and we
launched it on Wednesday so how
about
that just as an example you
can't say no
one got hurt at Sandy Hook
because
that's you know if people got
hurt
during a big massive event then
you
can't deny that that's very
interesting
that that's the that's the the
attack
that they've chosen and the
reason why
is of course a parent in this
one we
look at these accounts there
are many
different components that we
look at if
I were to do it again I would
put it all
into one in one go yeah we're
not gonna
help you make money on YouTube
monetization meaning we're not
gonna run
ads against your stuff if you
still want
to sell racist coffee mugs or
whatever
you're selling that's your
business but
we're not gonna help you we're
not gonna
put an ad in front of your
stuff so what
she's explaining here is why
they will
de monetize but will not kick
somebody
off you mugs or whatever you're
selling
that's your business but we're
not gonna
help you
we're not gonna put an ad in
front of
your stuff well we said we're
not gonna
put an ad in front of it but
but the
conditions by which we mate
will turn it
on can be broader than than
just that so
for example if they're selling
merchandise and linking off of
YouTube
and that is see she's not she
what's he
saying is if your said if
you're making
money outside of us yeah we
really don't
want you to do that so we're
gonna kind
of D monetize you but if you
stop doing
that and this is just a mug
that they're
that they're referencing I
don't think
it was a racist mug was it
racist mug it
was just a mug looking that guy
who
crowd or whatever his name is
right so
this is a commercial decision
which I
understand is up 20 seconds you
know
seen as racist or causing other
problems
that we that's something that
we will
discuss with the creator
because again
we are
we're like putting advertising
there so
we need to make sure that the
advertisers are going to be ok
with it
and we have a higher standard
and so you
can sort of look at all
different parts
of that creator and and what
they're
doing and basically apply that
higher
standard there she never
mentions what
the higher standard is because
did we
all know what it is
brand safe that's your higher
standard
yes this is something we've
been harping
on now I should mention that I
don't
know why this is a surprise to
anybody
if anyone has experience with
google
adsense in the early days mm-hmm
Google was very adamant about
how these
things are gonna be placed in
one
competition they don't like the
idea so
they don't want you doing
anything that
would interfere with their
their streams
their financial streams come in
there
they don't want you kind of
latching on
to somehow and piggybacking on
and
making money on your own
without them
being in the middle that's all
I got to
go through them yes every sub
it's just
a style people won't have to go
along
with it there's alternatives
but nobody
wants you know YouTube is set
up to you
know make it easy for everybody
to put
their videos there so an
assertion
happens by the way if YouTube
just folds
into all the videos go away
wonder why
would the world be different
and how
would people react to that I
wonder well
an assertion that we videos an
assertion
that we came up with is that
these
celebrity youtubers are
insignificant to
their business insignificant to
their
business in in regards to the
actual
revenue so you know I agree
well she's
gonna tell you how
insignificant what
percentage do you think are of
their
entire well she doesn't
necessarily say
revenue but of all the videos
that are
monetized by Google what
percentage do
you think is is big and
problematic or
just problematic because
they're big
probably mean they're too big
to fail no
the ones that is like Crowder
and Joe
Rogan or Alex Jones or
anyone whose or laura Loomer or
laura
southern or any of these people
who
think that they're really
important
what percentage of youtube's
actual
business is the 1% or less
can't fathom
why there's 8 million pieces of
terrible
things coming onto your site on
a
quarterly basis but that would
really
upset me and worried me well it
matters
what's the denominator like you
you gave
the numerator right and so you
know we
have a large denominator
meaning we have
like lots of content is
uploaded and
lots of users and and lots of
really
good content and you know when
we look
at it you know what that what
all the
news and the concerns and the
stories
have been have been about this
fractional 1% you talk about
the other
ninety-nine point you know what
you know
whatever that number is like
that's all
really valuable content of
people who
are sharing valuable points of
view that
we haven't heard about
educational
content addressing really
important
issues and so I think it's
important to
remember that and put that in
perspective and I say that not
because
we are not committed to solving
the
fractional 1% like we are very
committed
and I've been really clear that
this is
that responsibility is my
number one
priority and there is a lot of
work for
us to do I acknowledge that but
I also
know that we have tremendous
tools at
our fingertips that we can
continue to
invest in to do a better job
fractional 1% you can't even
give us the
fraction it's so small it's
probably
half of a percent
responsibility is her
number one priority no what was
it again
she has a funny phrase was it
right in
the beginning no is it the near
the end
the fractional 1% like we are
very
committed and I've been really
clear
that this is the responsibility
is my
number one priority and
responsibility
what does that mean I think she
means
number one priority
responsibility it's
like what's your number-one
priority uh
you know keep my washing my
hands before
you know you know response what
she
means in gooks be
it should be gooped speak not
goop talk
I think it's gugak you think
it's better
Google Talk Google who speak
could fit
more within a normal meme yeah
we had
will have to debate this later
Oh Google
you take responsibility for the
borderline fractional 1% of
issues
that's why she took
responsibility for
hurting the LGBTQ community you
see the
first question out of the gate
the first
question she got from the
audience was
ina freed are you familiar with
ina
freed oh yeah by enough read
who used to
be
Ian freed is transgender oh I
dead named
her I'm sorry and here was her
question
yep being afraid with Axios you
started
off with an apology to the LGBTQ
community but then you also
said that
you were involved in that you
think
YouTube made the right call a
lot of
people don't really feel like
that's an
apology and are concerned that
YouTube
flags lgbtq+ content just for
being LGBT
as sometimes you know sensitive
and yet
slurs are allowed and I'm
curious are
you really sorry for anything
to LGBTQ
community or are you just sorry
that
they were offended I'm really
personally
very sorry and I it was not our
intent
our goal was you know YouTube
has always
been a home of so many LGBTQ
creators
and that's why it was it was so
emotional why really that's why
even
though it was a hard decision
it was
made harder than it came from
us because
we've been such an important
home and
the why what is wrong with her
is that
this is their problem this is
their
fractional 1% issue is that the
social
justice warriors are relentless
will not
stop for anything find find
fault in in
in almost anything anyone says
it's this
it's social justice warriors
it's and
then they don't want the
stories they
can't have the negative press
and we've
been through this because that
I didn't
clip all this of course but she
even
said oh no we've reduced these
things at
50% all of this whole blitz
that she's
on is to inform advertisers
it's safe
over here it's less than 1%
we've and
even that we we we don't even
show the
mom almost 20% maybe I think
they're in
some serious trouble when it
comes to
the advertising business I
think they're
gonna have a real problem they
haven't
taken over the whole thing and
they're
set in a position where they
have to
grow to maintain their stock
price and
everything in between they're
in serious
trouble insofar as growth but I
don't
think they're in serious
trouble is in
so far as it's gonna recede on
them and
they're gonna make less and
less money
like the newspapers well the
competition
for their type of advertising
is growing
and that's the all the other
streaming
services including the the
mains the m5
television networks who were
all you
have now going into streaming
and and
where people are buying more
ads well
I'm not well they those ads
would have
gone to the fractional ads and
they
would have gone into network TV
if they
could afford them because
that's where
the action is for the big money
spends
nowadays there's big magazines
used to
suck him up good big giant
magazine
would get into I think Vogue
magazine
he's still a big giant magazine
it's a
$2,000 for a page mm-hmm yeah
which you
can't there's nothing like that
and on
online no and I don't know I I
think
their problem is this this
introspection
may be damaging them when you
have
somebody like this woman who's
like you
know just fretting fretting and
worried
sick
since apologizing wind of
awkward ways
that she get called up and not
apologizing when she probably is
sincerely apologizing instead
of yeah
apologizing very I'm sorry I
hurt your
feet I'm sorry you've the I'm
sorry you
think I hurt I'm sorry that's my
favorite I'm sorry you felt
butthurt
about that
yeah I'm sincerely sorry yeah
that you
you know that sort of apology
which is
not what she did but that she
got called
on it anyway and folded she
just jumped
on him it's not what I said
no I know she didn't say that I
didn't
say I'm sorry cuz you feel bad
I said I
am sorry that this happened
period well the correct answer
came from
Google CEO sundar pichai who
was is
interviewed separately by ina
freed
quickie thought may be a good
place to
start his view tube and
obviously it
comes up a lot what goes
through your
mind when you watch a video
like the
recent one you have this
teenager what
appeared to be donning Muslim
garb
spewing a lot of anti-muslim
anti-semitic homophobic hey
what goes
through your mind when you see
a video
like that and see that it's
gotten
350,000 views and I'm thinking
let me
see 350 times 15 CPM I'm
thinking to
bingo I don't know all the
details of
this specific
video but in general look
coming all of
us in a none of us worn harmful
content
on our platform last quarter
alone we
removed 9 million videos from
the
platform more recently we have
introduced you know just like
today we
do this in search we you know
we add
rank content based on quality
and so
we're bringing that same notion
and
approach to YouTube so that we
can rank
higher quality stuff better and
really
prevent borderline content
content which
doesn't exactly violate
policies which
need to be removed but that you
can
still cause harm and so we are
working
hard it's a hard computer
science
problem it's also hard societal
problem
because we need better
frameworks around
what is hate speech what's not
and how
do we as a company make those
positions
of scale and get it right
without making
mistakes I love that is just a
hard
computer science problem that's
my
favorite answer that's classic
now I
want to mention something don't
you
think a website that was just
totally
kicked butt would be called the
nine
million ooh
now no yeah that's a lot of
videos well
that's and that's just in three
months
as I said in the last year now
quarter
quarter they said quarter
mm-hmm holy
moly well that was that well
actually
that was well interestingly in
the in
the recode interview it was it
was 8
million and I don't know if the
sundar
was done before after but he
said 9
million so but I think the CEO
might be
I don't know the CEO of the
whole kit
and kaboodle I don't know
whoever's
right but yeah it's a lot then
that's
their perch and that's their ten
thousand reviewers and whatever
AI
thingies they have going yeah
yeah sure
the AI thing is useless
it's yeah well just one of the
many
reasons why we eleven seasons
ago you
can turn it into years if you
want to
chose a very different model so
that we
could never get kicked off but
we vowed to consistent poverty
and that
is why I'd like to thank you
for your
courage to say in the morning
to you
John
see Dvorak the more y'all ships
at sea
boots on the ground feet in the
air and
sucks in the water in the
morning to the
troll room no agenda stream
calm very
trollee today for some reason
oh yeah they got this very
trollee I
mean all kinds of side topics I
don't
know if they're paying
attention at all
in there it doesn't seem like
also in
the morning - how is it that
guy again
who's this CSB guy is that my
comic
strip blogger dippers comic
strip
blogger that's what he'd put we
want to
thank CSB for the artwork for
episode
1145 the title of that was dumb
meat and
it was the report hate speech
tap here
button which interestingly on
many
podcast players actually does
something
when you when you hit that it
give it
does something gives you like
show notes
or something doesn't report
anything
there's a great piece of art we
thought
it was very funny and we
appreciate the
work that all of our artistic
producers
and I said artistic producers
do and no
agenda art generator comm where
you can
always find some fun art for a
project
maybe like no agenda shop comm
then and
everyone seems to be able to
make money
on that including the artist
but really
it just brings our show which
everyone
collectively produces toward the
forefront because it's rotating
artwork
is an eye-catcher and it helps
people
listen to the show and again
thank you
CSB no agenda our generator
dot-com now
how do we do this with our with
our
donations doing well how do we
do this

brilliant
deconstruction as Horowitz
likes to say
the near the end of an DHE
unplugged
which we know puts some people
asleep
don't forget to donate

Jason and
Emilio well love and light to
you thank

know what
what what jobs they have
traveling all
around the world spooks
somebody has to
infiltrate various communities
yes I
think there at least there are
at least
three spooks at the meetup
yesterday oh
yeah yeah that wonder they ask
you about
that because there's always
funny
because you can talk to people
who are
on the lookout not everybody is
that's
the problem well though it
doesn't
matter because you're not to do
anything
about it anyway but it's kind
of nice to
know I think anyone who one of
I think
anyone who has an American uh a
was an
American Dutch and was more
like and the
Navy and Pat's like three now
British
American and German or Dutch
Passport
I think the Dutch want a Dutch
passport
is great all around the world
says and
spooks love that
there's also one one of our
producers
just looked like men in black
he was just dressed it was
totally he
had the black tie the black
suit and
like spook well he could have
been with
mi6 or something at long those
lines is
that we're assuming or ghh GCHQ
but the
question is did this did he
the spooky character donate you
know I
have a deja vu and which makes
I have a
total deja vu on this I
remember having
this exact conversation about a
meet-up
and about spooks and about
donating and
I done I think they flashed me
because
because when the men in black
flash you
it shows up as a deja vu
I have not ever asked that
question
there you go yes you have I'm
pretty
sure you have I'd that's about
spooks
how many think we're at the
meetup but I
don't remember asking if they
donate
freaking out what jobs car did

for the
newly-married root of LC senior
director
at Oracle consulting at this
moment
trying to get a job in Dubai
listening
from episode 1021 but haven't
donated
yet so he wants to be douche
bag we're
deducing you for that please
tell Dvorak
to learn something about the
micro
service architecture properly
developed
and managed micro service based
solutions is more resilient
than any
current legacy system and the
9-1-1
outage from episode 1101
definitely was
not caused by a micro service
architecture I'm assuming the
9-1-1
system is running on a
virtualized
infrastructure that was 50 times
migrated from one provider to
another
and now it's managed by people
that
don't have documentation and
don't
understand it I'll take that
thank you
very much explanation mm-hmm
but I'm not
going to accept the notion that
micro
services architecture is the
greatest
thing since sliced bread which
he
implies dude named disdaining
nerdy
voice
final two here which he'll
appreciate
dude named Ben m5m hi Adam Tina
and John
finding clothes an anonymous
donation to

universe of 100
pounds I worked for the BBC so
do not
want to be mentioned by name
yes we
understand that he gave me a
lot of
interesting insight into what
is going
on over there at the BBC and
then
finally I know I'm sorry we

[Music]
I think it's time to get to a
lil local
or national politics yes please
let's
start with Biden versus Trump
in Iowa is
an ABC rear port president
Trump heading
to Iowa today where Joe Biden
was
waiting for him the former vice
president making his most
direct attacks
yet the president is literally
an
existential threat to America
speaking
to voters in Ottumwa Iowa Biden
said the
president undermines American
values but
this is a guy who does
everything to
separate and frighten people
it's about
fear and loathing no president
has done
something like this history
lesson or
just want me to play the whole
clip and
it's damaging Biden is eager to
look
past his Democratic rivals in
just one
speech today he references the
president
76 times Trump is paying close
attention
he was someplace in Iowa today
and he
said my name so many times that
people
couldn't stand that anymore
no don't keep saying it sleepy
guy the
president taking a page out of
his 2016
playbook attacking the former
vice
president stamina and mental
fitness he
looks different than he used to
he acts
different than he used to
he's even slower than he used
to be I'd
rather run against I think
Biden than
anybody I think he's the weakest
mentally and I like running
against
people that are weak mentally
what do
you think the president says he
would
rather run against you than
anyone else
I don't
have no idea working for Joe
Biden is
leading in the early polls but
with 23
Democratic candidates to choose
from
some Democrats we spoke with
today
aren't sold yet
it's a person I really respect
I loved
him as vice presidents but I
think he
just has too much baggage he's
accumulated over the years a
lot of
Democrats say it's time for
some new
blood in the party what do you
make it
reducibility stability we need
somebody
that knows the roads in that a
great
clip now I love the insults
also I you
know has no one jumped on him
for you
know talking about people who
are our
mentally challenged know at
this point
is they just the media is doing
Trump's
bidding hug once again got it
yeah they're taking because
this he's
outrageous with this comments
about
Biden being sleepy Joe they got
that in
there and mentally something's
mentally
wrong with me slow put that in
because
it's like it's colorful and
indictments
up to report but if they're
really out
to get Trump they're poor Joe
they
really think they're doing
themselves a
a service they think they're
doing the
Democrats are serviced by
pointing out
Trump's that that Trump says
these
things
not realizing again it's a
stupidity
thing yeah not realizing that
this is
the case anything that sticks in
people's minds sleepy Joe he's
mentally
incompetent he's nut he's
dumber than he
used to be I'm surprised he
hasn't
brought up the take in his head
at the
top of his head off twice
shyam I don't think he knows
know many
people know about that yeah it
would be
a perfect following at mean
they'd they
took the top of his head off
twice I
mean well how can he be
president who
knows what they put in there I
can write
this stuff for him all day long
maybe it's something he's
saving I'm not
sure media is just and they put
these
packages together and it's
typically
rias if you listen to him yeah
I like it
now we had this woman or CBS
did a
report on let's see what is the
CBS one
because I have the eye I can
give you

well I would say so too
okay
all right so let's go to the
other disco
which we have Trump in Poland
part one
yes what do you have lie or and
everything was right try at a
Polish guy
there and then use doing sales
today
Washington DC's saw and heard
something
that hasn't happened in more
than a
hundred years it was a staged
military
flyover of the White House we
shashank
on what it was all about a
single f-35
fighter jet flew over the White
House
celebrating two things
President Trump
is fond of a good deal in a
good show
he watched the display with
Polish
President Andrzej Duda and
their wives
just minutes before making this
joint
announcement I was very pleased
that
Poland announced the intent to
purchase
32 american-made f-35 fighter
aircraft
like you just saw the f-35 the
most
expensive US weapons program
ever is
projected to top a trillion
dollars over
its lifespan an hour of flight
time is
about $44,000 the defense deal
with
Warsaw also includes the
deployment of
one to two thousand US troops
to Poland
which will cover the cost to
support
them we'd be taking them out of
Germany
or would be moving them from
another
location do-dah had pushed for
more US
service members and even
suggested
setting out the permanent base
called
for Trump he's going for legacy
man
something something that can be
changed
in 20 years because it's just
like for
it Confederacy yeah no good
report by
saying they haven't had a
flyover since
for a hundred years is what she
says
she's saying that in 1919 the
Wright
brothers flew oh who the hell
what
display was flying over the
White House
in 1919 I'd like to know I'd
like to
know - was it an f-35 I don't
really
think so now did the f-35 hover
did it
do its trick did it know
just flew over because I can do
selfies
flew over slowly though yeah it
can do a
very slow pass it's that I'm
impressed
by the aircraft but otherwise
it's a
most people things a piece of
crap well
people who have to fly it think
it's a
piece of crap
- Amanda course yeah well
here's part
two of that report just one
citizen
donut Rumpy up a Brussels the
Polish
president talked about the need
to beef
up security in the region in
response to
heightened Russian aggression
mr. Trump
said this about Moscow I hope
that
Poland is going to have a great
relationship with Russia I
think it's
possible I really do I think
because of
what you've done in the
strengths and
maybe we help also a president
Trump is
expected to meet with Russian
President
Vladimir Putin later this month
on the
sidelines of the g20 summit in
Japan and
with Chinese President Xi
Jinping as
those two leaders try to work
out a
trade deal Margaret wheeshes
sharing at
the White House I got one clip
from this
because there was one topic I
was
particularly interested in in
regards to
Poland as you recall the
president when
he was still running for office
went to
the Polish community and said
within two
weeks I will have Poland in the
visa
waiver program which is seeing
is that a
member of the European Union it
is
unbelievable that they have
been shunned
from the visa waiver program
you can't
just hop on a plane do a little
está
paperwork which you can do
online and
enter the United States
we have many thoughts on why
that is I
would say I think the main
thought is is
blamed on Israel yes well
there's
there's a huge movement in the
United
States even telling Congress
Senate and
House representatives eave
equally do
not do business with Poland
because they
killed the Jews with their
concentration
camps I'm paraphrasing but
that's kind
of what it comes down to and
here's what
Trump said I also want to
congratulate
Poland for its progress on
meeting us
criteria for entry into the
visa waiver
program today our country
signed a
preventing and come
batting serious crimes
agreement a
significant and necessary step
for
poland's entry into the program
though
we still have some work to do
we hope to
welcome Poland into the visa
waiver
program very soon and that's a
very big
deal yeah we'll see there's a
lot of the
anti polish hatred in in our
Congress
yes and they're the same guys
who bitch
and moan about Trump cozying up
to
Netanyahu yeah Yahoo of course
is under
attack I have a the bonus clip
is kind
of interesting cuz I think this
is kind
of lame when Israeli voters go
to the
polls in September they will
have one
more factor to consider this
time it's
the Prime Minister's wife Sarah
Netanyahu has agreed to plead
guilty in
one of several corruption cases
facing
the Netanyahu family our own
Lieberman
explains the case against Sarah
Netanyahu involves the illegal
ordering
of catered meals to the
official Prime
Minister's residence in
Jerusalem
Sarah Netanyahu along with a
manager of
the residence ordered nearly
$50,000 of
meals according to an updated
indictment
filed in court Wednesday that's
illegal
under Israeli law when there's
already
an official chef at the
residence and
prosecutors say there was one
at the
time
Sarah Netanyahu pleaded guilty
to the
lesser charge of unfairly taking
advantage of a mistake hmm now
what kind
of what cabbage charges
unfairly taking
advantage of a mistake it's
something
lost they have something losers
do take
advantage of the mistake is
what she's
charging guilty is that that's
an actual
charge did you hear the end I
know but
is it really true what we hear
the end
again that was that was mrs.
Railly
voters go to the polls oh
that's illegal
under Israeli law when there's
Peres
Netanyahu along with the
manager of the
residence order nearly $50,000
of meals
according to an updated
indictment filed
in court Wednesday that's
illegal under
Israeli law when there's
already an
official chef at the residence
you say there was one at the
time Sara
Netanyahu pleaded guilty to the
lesser
charge of unfairly taking
advantage of a
mistake this is Chris must be
some
biblical shit what else could
make sense
like that befuddle II hey
Hillary showed
up on a podcast ah yes yes
she's still
running in your mind she's
still getting
ready she's ready to switch to
the
cosmic weenie site contenders
2000 to
2020 which is linked we link to
it all
the time in fact on the last
newsletter
I believe it was linked to on
one of the
photos and I still have it
because I'm
just going by what witnesses
right now
Biden is the I'm sorry Bernie's
still
number one in my book mm-hmm
followed by Hillary if she
chooses to
run she will gently immediately
go to
that spot mm-hmm it's almost
like a
French three-star chef before
he opens
the restaurant they grant him
to stall
ours and without even sight on
the scene
right that's true well these
true these
are producer produced clips
from the
unredacted podcast two short
ones this I
found to be the most
interesting do you
tell them if they're if they
say him
when I get to cybersecurity do
Tom you
might want to do it yesterday I
do i do
Emily because but I but I I
worry that
it's probably too late by the
time they
come to see me I would bet that
the
leading candidates have already
been
hacked this is the biggest
crisis there
both their campaign accounts
and if
they're in public office and
they're
enough of a high-profile
candidate their
Senate office or their
congressional
office or their governor's
office yeah
that's the big statement well
that's
what I believe and she would be
the one
to know considering the
political spying
that she allegedly did between
2012 and
2016 I have to say allegedly
second clip is about Clooney do
you want
to hear my crazy idea yes I
love so this
is a crazy idea but I think it's
brilliant because I'm up with
George
Clooney should run from Mitch
McConnell
Senate seat that's a wonderful
idea
there's not a chance in
whatever that he
would do that
I mean and besides I think Amol
would
probably you know kill him with
the
twins and everything going on
in their
lives but he'd be great killer
we always
knew she was the handler but
you don't
have to be that explicit about
it
he'll Oh crazy well I missed it
yeah not
just on the State Department
and the
spying stuff and this is our
local u.s.
politics so there's there's a
important
piece of information that came
out about
the Steele dossier as it
relates to
these State Department and not
nests and
this is when I believe John
Kerry was
running the State Department
and it's
the first one is about this the
Ukrainian guy
Khalil Nick I think his name is
who was
but then one of the main
reasons I think
mana 420 gel is because he was
talking
to clinic and was giving
colonic the
polling results the secret
polling
results and passing on
information even
though Manta fort wasn't
convicted of
any of that stuff as far as I
know that
was really the insinuations
like oh you
know he was with clinic with
clinic was
Russia ties to Russia oligarchs
Russia
in a key finding of the mullah
report
Ukrainian businessman at
Constantine
killing Nick who worked for
Trump
campaign chairman Paul Manafort
is tied
to Russian intelligence but
hundreds of
pages of government documents
which
special counsel robert muller
possessed
since 2018 describe clinic as a
quote
sensitive intelligence source
for the US
State Department who informed on
Ukrainian and Russian matters
why Muller
steam Omid
that part of the clinic
narrative from
its report and related court
filings is
not known but the revelation of
it comes
as the accuracy of Muller's
Russia
conclusions face increased
scrutiny
Solomon continues quote the
incomplete
portrayal of Clem neck is so
important
to Muller's overall narrative
that it is
raised in the opening of his
report the
FBI assesses clinic to have
ties to
Russian intelligence
Muller's team wrote on page six
putting
a sinister light on every
contact clinic
head with manna for the former
Trump
campaign chairman we got to get
these
Millennials out of the news
business
girl on ecstasy
I said we got to get these kids
out of
the news business so along with
that
goes goes the next clip which
is tom
Fitton of Judicial Watch who is
apparently living with Sean
Hannity now
to make sure he's on the air
every night
well there was more than one
dossier you
had the steel dossier and it
looks like
you had a dossier created by
Jonathan
Winer at the State Department
using as a
source not only steel but folks
like
Sidney Blumenthal Clinton aide
or pal
and Cody Shearer who goes back
for a
long time with the Clinton
group this is
just incredible in the sense
that
everyone's been thinking that
it's the
Justice Department the FBI
that's where
all the bad activities was
taking place
the Secretary Pompeo needs to
be working
with Ag bar as closely as any
other
agency head in terms of
decoding the
deep state conspiracy against
then
Canada Trump and then President
Trump
and they were they were
desperate to get
this information out to their
friendly
Democrats on the hill just
before Trump
was inaugurated and it wasn't
to help
President Trump it was try to
destroy
him and undermine him everyone
who I was
it was paying close attention
to this
all jacked up oh yeah they're
going down
people to go into jail and I
don't think
so
I don't think I don't think so
for a
second this is all great but no
I really
don't think so
[Music]
but we'll see there are people
much
smarter than you and I on the
case yeah
that's probably true but
doesn't mean
anyone's going this final
political one
of the big there's one big
store the big
story today mm-hmm the story
that I like
is the one I'm gonna talk about
a little
bit which is the census report
and the
question and the scandal
because they
have Gino Trump saying
something you
know on the air and it's the
census
report or just the census what
what
examines the question that's on
the
census that that's true what if
you're
citizen if you're citizen or
not yeah
yeah so we have two clips on
this okay
first let's play this one this
is the
contempt over set the census
question if
the clip I'm thinking of it's a
gem
across the capital another vote
to hold
the Attorney General in
contempt of
Congress and the Commerce
Secretary to
the Democrats who lead the House
Oversight Committee said the
man had
stonewalled efforts to
investigate how a
controversial new citizenship
question
ended up in the US Census it's
designed
to intimidate and instill fear
the
administration retaliated by
exerting
executive privilege over the
census
documents Congress wants as the
president defended the new
question I
think when you have a census
and you're
not allowed to talk about
whether or not
somebody's a citizen or not
that doesn't
sound so good to me the Supreme
Court is
expected to rule this month on
whether
the citizenship question can be
included
in the 2020 census experts have
warned
that the question will
discourage some
immigrant families from filling
out the
forms thereby Margaret's skewing
population data
okay alright that wasn't the
clip I was
okay sets the background yeah
play the
clip contempt well that's the
one I just
senses that's the one I just
played you
played contempt yeah contempt /
senses
question oh okay that's weird
okay played the bonus clip
Dennis's
bonus Trump on census I don't
have oh
yes I do
no no exact privilege yes
president
spoke about invoking executive
privilege
let's listen well I think that
and I'm
not overly involved in that
that's
really a legal matter but I
think when
you have a census and you're
not allowed
to talk about whether or not
somebody's
a citizen or not that doesn't
sound so
good to me can you imagine you
send out
a census and you're not allowed
to say
whether or not a person's an
American
citizen in Poland they say
they're
either Polish or they're not
right so I
don't want to get you into this
battle
but it's it's it's ridiculous I
think
it's I think it's totally
ridiculous
that we would have a census
without
asking but the Supreme Court is
going to
be ruling on it soon I think
when a
census goes out you should find
out
whether or not and you have the
right to
ask whether or not somebody is
a citizen
of the United States so a
controversial
decision there because it is
not a
citizenship hole it is a
population poll
and some critics say that this
would
dissuade some people from being
counted
the issue to him he actually
seems to be
condoning the idea of knowing
who's a
citizen and who not even though
this
information is not supposed to
be shared
that's not what someone taking
the
census would believe if they
were
filling out that question
absolutely it
is is something that we have
not seen
before and that is why the
Supreme Court
is going to have to decide it
you know
involved or not he has made his
views
extremely clear I thought we
had seen
this before I thought it was on
the
census at one point in history
wasn't it
it may or may not have been but
I'm more
interested in this in this
skewed
dispute presentation by CNN I
don't know
who this woman is it was Dana
Bash it
was just one day she was
interviewing as
though she's someone to be
interviewed
she's a reporter
reporters interviewing
reporters but
well she's state she's married
to she
used to be married to some no
like
agency guy Dana Bash yeah I
think so
could be yeah but she goes and
she makes
this comment which sticks in
the creo
was sticking some people's
minds as the
first of all let's talk about
this the
census thing after I bring up
that least
is one point let me read from
let me
read from the United States
Constitution
article 1 section 2 it states
quote
representatives and Direct
Taxes shall
be apportioned among the states
according to their respective
numbers
the actual enumeration shall be
made
within three years after the
first
meeting of the Congress of the
United
States and win within every
subsequent
term of 10 years section 2 of
the
Fourteenth Amendment states
representatives shall be
apportioned
among the several states
according to
their respective numbers
counting the
whole number of persons in each
state
excluding Indians not taxed
that's it
and and so she says she says
it's not a
citizen poll it's not a poll
she says poll it also says it's
not a
citizen poll it's a population
poll it's
not a poll that's a count but
when she
says that I want to read from
the first
page of the Census Bureau's
website the
first census counted the
population to
provided information on
population by
country by county in 1790 the
census
also categorized white males by
age
those under 16 and those aged
16 and
older
that's my race that's race
hello race
that's not a part of the crowds
job as a
white male yes and it's not a
white male
poll it's a population poll
however that
nobody said that over the years
Congress
has authorized additional
questions
enabling us to better
understand the
nation's inhabitants and their
activities and knees in fact
one of the
nation's founders James Madison
suggested that in the that the
census
takers ask additional questions
that
would help lawmakers better
understand
the needs of the nation wait a
minute is
just a population poll
and it goes on with all the
examples
that they started asking about
how many
children were born but to a
specific
woman how many Hispanics there
are the
growth of the Spanish population
computer usage apparently has
gotten
into the pole the pole descent
the
census the census itself but so
this is
disingenuous to say it's not a
it's not
a citizen polis population poll
at all
but all of this is bullshit the
only
thing that needs to be done is
enumeration counting it's only
count
everything else that has been
put in and
has been used before after the
half this
was in the Constitution he's
outside of
the scope it should be you you
shouldn't
even have to say how many
people live in
my house it's everyone to go
out we
count everybody and go home
that's it
yeah they gave a date with that
ended
about the 1810 of course it did
thing
but if you're going to ask a
bunch of
questions I don't think that the
citizenship question is out of
the
ordinary no so I'll take that
but I'm
gonna take the side of the
other side
and try to understand what
they're
thinking I know what they're
thinking
they're worried sick and they
talk about
it the Democrats I'm talking
about here
are worried sick that because
the
question just appears that all
this you
know the illegals the thirty
million or
ten million or how many million
you want
to count and won't answer the
question
and they won't take they will
eliminate
themselves from the polls mhm
by just by their nature of not
being
suspicious and with good reason
I'd say
but they're suspicious so they
won't
take them and you know lower
the numbers
in states like California and
Texas in
areas where there's a large
immigrant
community of illegals illegal
aliens
I'll use the term and that then
the
numbers will be skewed which
will give
the whites more power over the
over the
illegals in Congress and over
the
Democrats in particular because
these
people the Democrats in a funny
way are
admitting that the illegals
vote for
them almost exclusively and
they need to
be counted so we can get more
you know we can apportion more
representatives to areas that
are
largely illegal aliens that will
represent the Democrat Party in
Congress
so it's both sides are kind of
playing a
game here yeah they're not quite
bringing it out the way you
know the
Republicans are playing the
denial I
don't know I don't think so no
we're not
trying to pull a stunt and the
Democrats
aren't quite saying what I just
said
which is yeah they're pulling a
stunt to
screw us because all these
illegal
aliens are voting for us
illegally and
so we have to put up with these
news
stories that aren't half-assed
and women
like this anchor saying well
it's not a
citizenship poll it's a it's a
population poll I like I like
your Dana
Bash voice well was it Dana
Bash that
was doing it sorry Hank er well
strictly
taken from the Constitution it
was just
a head count doesn't and it
didn't
matter at the time if you were
a citizen
or not I don't think they had
passports
then when they did this maybe
they do
right did they have passports I
don't
know passports in fact there
was the
dispatch force of disappeared
throughout
history on and off again and
apparently
the last global effort to
globalize the
work you know globalized of all
the
countries was just before work
this is a
bad story I mean I I've
researched it
somewhat but just before World
War one
the passport situation was
Shingen was
like really the thing because
we were
global eyes are gonna be going
great and
global trade was way up and the
numbers
look good
but because there's no
passports and
those citizenship some people
were just
roaming around that's how that
guy just
roamed over you know Austria
wherever he
went to shoot that guy that
started
World War one yes France fair
for all
for like it kind of is now in
Europe for
just floating around and there
was no
passports were just they came
back into
vogue after their World War one
hmm and this is leading this
now we got
the same repeating of history
and we're
gonna this lead to another war
some sort
yeah you know there was a a
brief period
in the history of the show or
we were
talking about I think was in
Texas said
you know I should probably run
for
Congress and we we discussed
this a
little bit and at a certain
point if I
recall iirc that you said it
would be
great because we would love to
see the
slow corruption of Adam curry
do you
recall this Alexandria Ocasio
Cortes is
actually going through that
process
right now and right and this
clip is her
on the street on being
interviewed on
the street of DC after she had
just
voted for a pay increase for
all of
Congress and these things are
always
very interesting these pay
increases the
population in general hates it
and why
because well a Congress critter
makes I
think a hundred and seventy
thousand
dollars a year and this was a
forty five
hundred dollar annual pay
increase to
make up for what we call the
cost of
living now it's always a tough
one for
politicians because of course
they want
more money but it's a lot of
money
they're already getting you
probably
need a lot of money to be a
politician
and function in in DC position
so she
voted for for the pay increase
her
defense is mind-boggling
especially with
the modern monetary theory that
she and
her like-minded colleagues
espouse which
is print as much money as we
need green
new deal ten trillion
before that is exactly what
creates the
disparity in wages and
cost-of-living
when you inflate the money
supply the
money becomes less valuable and
you need
more of it
by goods and services and pay
rent or
mortgages etc the the it is a
hidden tax
it diminishes the value of your
money
that's so for anyone to on one
hand say
all we really need to you know
which we
need this pay increase but on
the other
hand wants to inflate the money
supply
by a factor of 100 it's it's
kind of
insane but listen to how she
defends
voting for this pay increase
that's why
there's so much pressure to
turn to
lobbying firms and to cash in
on one
member service after people
leave
because so it may be politically
convenient and it may make you
look good
in the short term first thing
we're not
voting propane we should be
fighting for
pay increases for every
American worker
you should be fighting for a
$15 minimum
wage to inflation everybody in
the
United States with the salary
with with
the wage gets a cost-of-living
increase
members of Congress retail
workers
everybody should get
cost-of-living
increases to accommodate to the
changes
in our economy and then we
don't do that
it only increases the pressure
on
members to exploit loopholes
like better
training loopholes to make it
on the
back she's gonna say this again
I just
want you to understand what she
said by
not having enough money as a
politician
members is what she means by
not having
enough money for the cost of
living at
your 170,000 base salary now it
it is
bad because this makes members
want to
take high paying Lobby jobs
after they
leave and to use insider trading
loopholes which we've talked
about
extensively on this podcast as
you are
immune from insider trading if
you make
laws and you have a law on the
books oh
you know about someone in
Congress and
yeah it's going to affect the
sector and
you buy or sell stock based
upon that it
is completely legal for them to
do as
long as they report it which is
you know
recorded somewhere in the
basement of
the Library of Congress they
refuse to
put it there these collections
on the
way online exactly that's
scandal but she's saying she
only been
that she's been there a couple
months
she's already since dirty knows
she
already knows about the
loopholes and
the scams and she'll double
down on it
economy and then we don't do
that it
only increases the pressure on
members
to exploit loopholes like new
polls to
make it on the back and that's
my issue
is that it's superficial you
know you
can you can vote against pay
increases
all you want it's in my opinion
voting
against tap a voting against
them it's
not even it's not even like a
raise its
cost-of-living adjustment you
can vote
against the cost-of-living
adjustment
all you want and it'll look
good on its
surface but it will every
cost-of-living
adjustment that that gets by
pass is
voting to increase the pressure
to
exploit loopholes and legal
loopholes to
lean on other ways to enrich
myself
through service and so my whole
side of
it is like it may not be optics
it may not be great optics it
may not
like
look the best and in terms of
your
opponent's can use it as a
political
exploit as a political issue
but in
substance you might as well be
transparent about how cost of
living
increase fight for a cost of
living
increase for all American
workers
peddling minimum wage to a
cost-of-living increase and
then on top
of it to close all of the
loopholes that
a lot of people use when it
comes to you
know who's sitting on a
committee and
knowing what legislation may be
coming
down the the loophole and
changing your
stock holdings or letting you
know if
these are real issues and I
don't think
that voting against the talks
of Liberty
is going to negate the actual
issues in
fact it only increases the
pressure for
people to explain if I were a
member and
I looked at these objects
I would immediately FOIA her
stock
holdings she is she mentioned
it too
many times she's on committee
she chairs
a committee I'd like to know
well I think she chairs the
subcommittee
she still is she still is in
committee
she knows what she knows what's
going on
and she knows all about this
rule and
somebody and these she's run
you know by
this justice Democrat the team
the
number one team that the go-to
guys
right who once again were not
there when
she made the statement when
she's loose
she's loose on the streets
probably
lectured her about it so she
knows about
it and they know about it and
so they in
fact they may be how do they
deal with
their portfolio yeah you know
it depends
on what you how you're gonna
define
insider you give you if you
just follow
legislation and then you
reinvest or not
invest it's not the same as
being an
insider it is even though it is
for the
legislative people but if
you're being
tipped off by them and it's not
illegal
for them to do it I think is
legal for
you to do the trading to so
they're
probably I'm not saying I'm not
saying
it's illegal I just like to not
I just
like to know it should be
public let's
just she mentioned it that's
the problem
is she mentioned it let's find
out about
it well you can go into the
archives and
you can get it but someone has
to go and
do the work get to go into
Washington DC
and then go down and do that
might not
be a bad trip to make I might
do it
myself
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
yeah we do a few people to
think before
I go that Washington DC to
spend my time
and I'm already purchasing a
ticket
online for you I'd love to see
you go do
that
you're kidding that's great do
it I mean

there's
any call-outs for anyone to do
to do i I
do have a follow on note from
Dame Lisa
you remember her
from the last show was an
incident and
she works for Liberty
nation.com and she
did have a follow up which I
thought was
good to share unless you have
anything
else and he call-outs there
that's it
but you got
I've not seen anything she says
Liberty nation.com pole
fittingly while
flying across the conveyor not
sure
everyone was happy when I oh
okay I
first heard your response to
the Liberty
nation.com poll fittingly while
flying
across the country I'm not sure
everyone
was happy when I burst into loud
spontaneous laughter while
listening to
the show you two are a riot a
few
itsy-bitsy items to clean up I
am NOT
number two at Liberty nation I
am
editor-in-chief
I am number one she was number
two I did
I said I said I said she's not
the
number one and number two
because I
think she didn't found the
company but
oh you can say well yeah that
you the
atom would be the type that
would always
consider a founder number one
yes I
don't know what I'm lying about
yes so
she is the Big Kahuna
editor-in-chief I
will tell you for certain we
did not
step on the pole I double
double shark
this double check this with
Marc Ange
elitists I think of his
managing editor
at Liberty nation he did say his
feelings are a bit hurt though
because
he actually does listen to no
agenda in
the UK and when one of you
there will be
me said the author of the
article who
was Mark only listened to five
minutes
he got a bit miffed my point
exactly
[Music]
let me see personally I hope
you guys
kiss and make up perhaps play
him a
karma jingle that might do the
trick I
tried to get him to go to the
meetup but
he was just in London covering
the
anti-trump chlorinated chicken
protests
oh I know well okay well anyway
oh he's
not eating one that's
interesting he's
in the UK not in London yeah
they're
pretty bitching or not just in
London
but around they were there
bitching
about us shipping our chickens
yes we
chloric we drop him in it's not
chlorinated it's a chlorine
bath that
the chickens go through to kill
salmonella and make the
chickens you
know
well it's a slogan here no it's
a brexit
slogan that's why it's being
used here
they just say oh yeah you want
chlorinated chicken it's that
you hear
it every 10 minutes in the
media in the
UK and the reason why is the EU
the
European Union's doesn't allow
chlorinated chicken and they
just give
it to you with the salmonella
so people
are very worried that is
natural when
they breaks it then them
they'll only be
eating chlorinated chicken it's
one of
those guessing although I don't
know
this is a fact but it would
seems like
because this equipment is being
manufactured and sold by the
group
boatload that the chicken in
coming out
of those those robot factories
in
Holland largely yeah I have a
gamma
radiation exposure at the end
of the
line and you can blast the
chicken with
some gamma radiation and that
which we
should be doing here and that
would kill
that would do the job of the
chlorine
well I believe it only it would
internalized it too now I think
we we
concluded on the last show it's
a dumb
meat and I think everyone is
very dummy
by the way guys liberty nation
is a
conservative website well we do
have to
staunch libertarians on our
writing
staff of 12 authors we are
primarily a
run-of-the-mill group of
deplorable
because we are Liberty nation I
kind of
feel live-and-let-live is the
best
policy
I am curious as to why you
thought we
were primarily a libertarian
site well
because on your site it says
you got
libertarians and gays and
blacks and
Jews and whatever so I figured
you
couldn't be conservative that
doesn't
sound right
we were just questioning as
usually ok
what well I mean I don't know
one way or
the other I'm gonna bail I'm
paying more
attention to that site it's
nice it's
good site to candles things
properly
well I think you said they
seemed more
libertarian it doesn't matter
it's just
a label because I think that I
don't
wanna yeah no one cares
you got good information fine
yeah well she's editor in chief
she's
number one she has every right
to she's
a dame editor in chief as usual
you guys
were right
and I queried the staff as to
whether
this poll focuses on only
conservative
podcasts or podcasts
conservatives love
to download and listen to it is
indeed
what they prefer to listen to
so we
added an Asterix or a stick as
as
what's-his-face would say al
sharpton a
stick we add an a stick in the
story for
clarification with a hat tip -
no agenda
they edited went back and
edited very
good so yes now she has one
question
just a couple of other
beautiful things
to say but she says yes Dame is
nice but
if we're dishing out title
she'd like to
be known as a lady and I say I
think if
your Dame then you by
definition are
lady so-and-so because a knight
is sir
so a Dame is a lady and I think
lady
Lisa sounds good okay so it
should be to
refer to it's fine okay would
you put
that in the notes yeah we'll do
that so
the damn River Dame wants to be
referred
to as lady that's fine yeah we
got it
it's approved immediately
approved by
the peerage committee do you
heard an
ad-hoc well thank you to
everyone who
supported the program for this
show
obviously we always want to
thank people
who come in under the fifty
dollar mark
which is a secure level we put
in for
people who would like to
support the
program but be anonymous also
it's where
a lot of our subscriptions come
from and
I do have one important message
the 3333
boarding pass or and I've said
PUD that
we have the podcast license at
podcast
license calm and I wish I was
adding
subdomains for for everyone who
had a
podcast license and we got
another
request for for one and you
know so it
would be like your name here
dot podcast
license comm and I went to do a
new one
and lo and behold who ever
registered
podcast license com has not
renewed it
but I can't hijack it yet so if
you
registered podcast license com
could you
please either give me a
transfer code or
could you
um could you reread you stir it
so we
can continue with the spine
promotion
interesting this is another
example of a
fail of guess what
micro-services
architecture that's what it is
and we
did it you're right so well so
yeah so
everything's effectively broken
right
now so it'd be great whoever
registered
that could could fix it but
thank you to
our executive producers our
associate
executive producers all of the
we hit
still had some stragglers on
the 75d day
we've got the swazaa laughs
we've got
the dad father's day which I
guess you
maybe it'll be a newsletter on
Saturday
but you can obviously say hi to
dad and
donate for the next program but
in
general this is the only way we
can
discuss what we discuss in the
manner
that we do it because we do not
have
corporate interest that we have
to be
worried about no advertising
luckily no
meetings this fluctuation in
our income
but we are very proud to be
part of the
value for value network as you
all are

Sweden just
came in from Eric Wow
let me let me read this to you
he said
as of Monday on Monday June
10th the
following happened in Sweden
that was
probably not or underreported
you ready
for this sure this is one day

bomb threatening
english-speaking EU

two more
bombings in Malmo at late night
this leaves out the large
bombing of an
apartment building in lick
coping
previous to the previous Friday
which
injured 25 and damaged 250
apartments
did you hear any of this
of course not especially the
apartment
being blown up no this is what
you get
when your news is focused on
Bojo with
the Mojo and orange man bad it's
pathetic no wonder you're
losing your
ass cuz you're not reporting
nose orange
man bad well yeah it sounds
like they
have issues that need to be
resolved
societal based issues dig a
latarian yes
yes well the one piece of news
that I
thought was very important that
I'd read
that's why I sent the bonus
clips off
which is this which happened
just read
just as the show is being
produced and
needed to be discussed a little
bit
which is the ship to two ships
being
attacked variously reported as
by
torpedoes then there were
shells and
nobody released got the story
straight
it'll be straight not as after
this show
is done but and by the way this
reflects
almost to a tee the kind of
stuff that
was in the news short ones 13
episodes
season of Rubicon for following
a
developing story out of the
Gulf of Oman
the US Navy says its responding
to
reports of attacks on shipping
they're a statement goes on to
say that
US naval forces in the region
received
two separate distress calls
this morning
local time it adds that ships
in the
area are rendering assistance
the news
is sending oil prices up
sharply US
crude prices surged as much as
four
percent as details of the
reports first
emerged they're currently up
more than
two percent as you can see see
their
international diplomatic editor
Nick
bothersome following
developments from
here in London but first want
to go to
ghoul disease she's in Abu
Dhabi ghoul
what we know right now in terms
of
confirmed detail well it's a
developing
story but at this point we know
that an
incident took place on two
shipping
vessels in the Gulf of Oman and
in that
particular in these incidents
we know
that one oil tankers was
involved and a
chemical vessel carrying
chemical
products was involved the
company that
owns the chemical product
shipping
company that that vessel says
that their
ship was attacked twice with
some sort
of shell we know at this point
that 44
people crew members of those
two ships
have been rescued by the
Iranian Navy
mm-hmm okay yeah what's your
assessment
of the system in possible no I
think it
could be a how about this how
about
market myristic how about market
manipulation he doing this
how about market manipulations
part of
it that would be that's the
reference to
rubicon yes in the and the oil
price was
already going down way too low
uncomfortable we can't have any
of that
so let's shoot a shipful oil or
maybe
I'll just say this shit you
wouldn't
have we've seen video of you
seen rap
yeah we spoke up like the Gulf
through
Tompkins that was a classic he
was you
look into that and we'll have
to say
read something funny we'll have
to see
I mean I like you know going
back in
time I do have a clip from 22
2010 which
I just I ran into a cache of old
archived material from the
exhume from
the
recorders that I used back in
2010 hmm
and I said what's on here and
it's just
I had to read it I'm in to
produce them
but I got a kick out of this
one because
I don't know that NBC it rock
Rockefeller Center has they
have a store
yeah and I don't know that they
sell
Donald Trump memorabilia but
apparently
in 2010 according to O'Reilly
who
ridiculed this when he had a TV
show
there's O'Reilly 20 it says 10

way according to O'Reilly that
would
this was the price in 2010 this
is what
they were doing NBC News
continues to
support the president just
about every
way at their headquarters in
Manhattan
the NBC store is selling Obama

fabulous
hope and change Jay have you
with no
hope in a pocket full of change
you know
I recommended you you watch this
flea bag I think it's on
Netflix please
series have you watched this
flea bag
yeah so I've watched a couple
episodes
so the thing is the first
episode just
because we're talking about
about Obama
and I thought it was very
realistic
she's lying in bed with her
boyfriend
and you know they're they're
basically
breaking up or no they just had
sex and
he's done and she was clearly
not done
he rolls over goes to sleep and
she's
watching Obama and masturbating
to Obama
what president did anyone do
that to but
Obama
I can't think any other any
other
President Clinton particularly
white
women click Clinton but they
were forced
the worst
[Music]
we are very proud to say that
Ebola has
moved from the Congo to a new
spot in
Africa and my predictions
always are
when Ebola shows up that the
military is
on the way a child was detected
by the
health workers at cargando
Hospital with
signs and symptoms of Ebola and
immediately transferred and
isolated at
where a hospital Ebola
treatment unit
for further management a blood
sample
was drawn and sent for testing
at Uganda
virus research institute very
early on
the morning of June 11th and
the Sampo
tested positive for Ebola all
the other
Congolese family members have
been
identified and i in isolation
at Werra
hospital a third Wednesday
afternoon the
World Health Organization said
two new
cases of Ebola has been
confirmed the
Ministry of Health the world
organization and the Center for
Disease
Control have dispatched a rapid
response
team to Casa se to support the
teams who
are on the ground to continue
with the
various activities including
contact
tracing and case management the
Ministry
of Health wh1 CDC will
undertake ring
vaccination of contacts to the
case and
other non vaccinated frontline
health
workers as well as other workers
beginning 14 June 2019 so this
ring
vaccination is what really
caught my my
ear on this apparently there is
a first
of all this is right this is 30
kilometers from Kampala in
Uganda this
is a big deal this is this is
this is
now not just some look place
we're
mining up in in the Congo yeah
Kampala
this is where big terrorist
attacks take
place is
you know a lot of things happen
in
Uganda and we've sent CDC which
as we
know is you know it has its
roots in
military but then they're doing
these
ring vaccinations which is here
it is
the R vs V - Zeb Oh V and and
it's a
vaccine that is experimental
and they
call this ring vaccination
approach by
offering two contacts of the
people
diagnosed with Ebola and their
contacts
and also frontline workers to be
vaccinated with the test
vaccine so I
don't know what the plan is on
this but
I think one it wasn't there
isn't there
a legitimately tested already
vaccine
for Ebola
they were shooting people up
with in the
Congo this is the same one but
it's not
legitimately tested I thought
it was
that same thing ring testing
ring
testing which let me see if I
have
little I'm unfamiliar with this
well
it's a way of saying we're
gonna do test
this shit on you only we make
it sound
cool by saying ring okay
whatever
I mean it makes sense they're
gonna use
the African population to just
test
random vaccines on well this is
what
we've always been told is that
this
takes place and here it is as
far as I
can tell and I mean you make it
sound
great
mmm and they have some kid who
died and
I guess that he had Ebola I
don't know
but this is a development that
is it
takes it out of out of the
Congo and a
DRC and puts it straight into
or right
into company lived when I was a
kid
hmm military Arlen's receipt
you'll be
keeping up track of this yes I
will be
on top of the yellow label I
will stay
on table I will stay on top of
Ebola you
bet Ebola a common Africa gave
diarrhea
okay the other big news that
you missed
out on well you didn't because
it's in
Hong Kong
yes I have a pretty good update
and this
is the Hong Kong update I
believe this
is CBS it's a pretty good job
there were
more clashes today in the
streets of
Hong Kong protesters are
outraged over a
proposal to send criminal
suspects to
mainland China for prosecution
riot police met them with tear
gas and
rubber bullets
ramie Inocencio was in that
crowd we
have to use force said Hong
Kong's
police chief and they did they
shot tear
gas and pepper spray swung
batons and
fired rubber bullets
protesters pushed back with
water
bottles protected by umbrellas
and masks
everyone was a target including
us
already the smoke and the tear
gas is
making its way here feeling it
inside
your nose into your eyes is
getting
closer and closer helping hands
came
from these protesters okay
thank you but
it's a small kind of sting when
your
futures at stake I think that's
no hope
but we still need to continue
to file a
case against Asian government
and the
hope to stop lawmakers from
passing a
controversial extradition bill
the fear
if fast anyone here could be
extradited
to mainland China human rights
lawyer
Jason Young says that could
include
foreigners if I'm an American
and I did
something bad here I could
potentially
be extradited to China well you
don't
even have to do anything bad
what is to
stop China from making up
evidence oh
yeah how long Hong Kong's chief
executive Carrie Lam who's
appointed by
Beijing said she hasn't sold
out Hong
Kong but in a separate speech
condemned
the protesters as rioters that
designation means protesters
may be
subject to very long prison
terms if
arrested but that's a risk many
are
willing to take especially as
we get
closer to the bill's passage
chief
executive Carrie Lam says she
hopes to
do that by next week yeah this
is uh
this is interesting well it
flies in the
face of these two systems one
country
bullcrap yeah big deal the deal
that was
made the deal was hands-off
yeah and so
this book course all goes back
to that
screwed everybody by giving to
the Hong
Kong back to China for no
apparent
reason and because there still
be a
British colony otherwise
because it was
it was a lease for life or some
ridiculous number Chinese think
long
term
so that wasn't a big deal to
them but
and then the Chinese made a big
stink
about well don't worry about it
because
I was in Hong Kong just before
the 97
turn over and everybody there
was
paranoid and they've got people
come up
to your people to their friends
the
money to say you had to all we
hear is
people speaking Mandarin and
because
this was the big cuz everyone
speaks
Cantonese and in Hong Kong and
they're
here too many people or these
people
they're moving in and they're
gonna try
and imprison us and of course
in that
that was the same period where
all the
expatriates moved to Canada
most of them
because you could buy Canadian
citizenship for $250,000 and
many of the
great chefs of Hong Kong moved
to Canada
was created especially in
Vancouver
Vancouver and cool a great
subculture of
Chinese restaurants it was
weird and
that Chinese ass waged it was
this
bullcrap which apparently spoke
up in
this woman this Lam woman who's
a who's
the governor of the Hong Kong
appointed
by Beijing is a creep well a
word about
the social scoring that would
apparently
be used to you know to entrap
people and
and have them extradited
Tina was talking with some
people at the
gym I think she's at a new gym
now cuz
we moved and she was talking
about her
her nutty husband the
conspiracy tinfoil
hat we're in dude about and it
some
other conversation went to
black mirror
and the social score that one
of the
first episodes which I think
was one of
the best ones it's the second
season I
know what the hell they're
doing but one
of the guys there is in China
quite
regularly even had the social
score app
he said ah the kids hate it
they found
all these ways to hack around
it they
show you oh look you do this
thing do
this and then your score in
your score
changes there they're completely
circumventing the the whole
system which
is encouraging to hear
well as discouraging for me to
hear that
you have to do that because
those those
bypasses are always sorted
eventually
yeah to a degree I'd like to
hear from
some of our producers in China
about the
circumvention what do you do I
mean what
what exactly do you is it the
way you
hold your phone different or
turn
something on or off or apps
that ya
could feed data here and there
that work
shouldn't be going I don't know
yes good
for you to do that but at the
same time
he's why the public at large in
China
can only put up with so much
they do
they have had revolutions and
it could
happen again
I have just two Article two two
items I
want to discuss quickly one
congratulations is left yes you
have a
clip last thing is a clip
because I'd be
great yeah lessening accent I
had two
stories no clip first of all
okay I
remember my prediction football
soccer
is going to be big in the
States as long
as it's women I love the
pounding the
USA team gave to Thailand 13 to
nil at
the World Cup that there's your
your
boring scores John you always
hate these
boring one one one nil nil nil
scores 13
mil and then they were gloating
about it
and now there's everyone hates
a scourge
you're bad you're bad winners
that's
worse than sore losers you guys
are
horrible yeah I'm all for it
yeah I
think he pounded the Thais
perfect the
second one is about this
helicopter
crash in Manhattan and I have
been able
to do some work on this yeah
I'm pretty
sure I know what happened
although we
never know exactly until until
we get
the full report first of all I
owned
this exact type of aircraft
before in
1999 this was the Augusta 109e
power
this is for sites of incredibly
it's one
of the safest machines you can
fly it's
a twin turbine engine it can do
single
pilot IFR which means
you can fly in any conditions
just like
well not at the altitude but
just like
any airline aircraft on you know
essentially you're on
instruments you
have to be certified this pilot
although
he was an experienced pilot was
not
certified IFR so you can't fly
in
instrument flying rules
conditions now I
I'm not certified on helicopter
for IFR
but I have had the training and
here's
what happen what we call
whiteout
conditions which is what he was
in the
ceiling was 700 feet but when
you're
even 200 feet below that it
looks very
different in the air than from
the
ground you probably saw the
video of the
helicopter flying quote
erratically you
actually can't see where you
are in
those kinds of conditions and
when
you're flying a helicopter
you're not instrument rated and
you
don't know how to use the
instruments
you will be upside down within
30
seconds it's it's it's you're
you get
vertigo and and it's a very very
dangerous situation this guy
tried to
make it back he wanted to what
we call
Scud running just kind of skirt
underneath the ceiling and I
think he
got up there and immediately he
got
disoriented that's what we saw
on that
video and unfortunately he
crashed into
the building it's that simple
and and
it's a day wrecker for him and
for
everybody else involved but it
was a
typical very typical case of
pilot error
which is what most of these
accidents
are and he never should have
taken off
it was just a big mistake
so that's all there is to it
everything
else everything else you heard
is
bullcrap no it makes sense yeah
alright
well the last clip this was
kind of an
oozy thing and it was done it's
as
somebody did a deep fake on
Zuckerberg I
have not seen it it was it any
good yes
it was not very long because I
he's 23
seconds I how do I get the
whole clip
here I have the voice is 17
seconds is
takes a lot of work to make one
of these
and this has Zuckerberg sitting
there
looks just like Zuckerberg is
based on
Zuckerberg and then they have a
voice
which doesn't sound quite like
Zuckerberg but it sounds that
nothing's
not you know looks like Herbert
kind of
swallows his walls
lady talks through all those
what he
says I can't even do the
imitation
yeah but he does it a little
bit the
gates does it a lot of these
guys do
that and so it sounds more like
a very
clear Zuckerberg and it's not
even it's
not that interesting but he
would do if
the clip but I do want to say
that I
believe in Zuckerberg who did
you know
the Facebook's were not big
news was
they're not taking it off
Instagram this
fake and that was because they
refused
to take golf to Nancy Pelosi
sure and so
they say look we've kept ours
on just
the way we are and so they they
didn't
take it off and they shouldn't
have
taken it off cuz it's so funny
but here
is what it sounds like imagine
this for
a second one man with total
control of
billions of people stolen data
all their
secrets their lives their
futures I owe
it all to Specter specters
showed me
that whoever controls the data
controls
the future okay hold on a
second that
sounded nothing like Zuckerberg
that's
the worst thing I've ever heard
likes it
no not even I say I disagree I
think
it's vaguely sounds like him
and then
when you have his head they're
yakking
away well that's that's the
difference
yes but when you just hear it
no I
thought it didn't sound
anything like
him at all I thought it sounded
vaguely
like him but that did that was
it that
was the bit it was very funny
then
leaving it up it's going to just
encourage more people to do
these things
which is probably not the good
idea and
it's probably the I would
personally if
I was Facebook I'd take down to
Pelosi
one I take down this I take
them both
down exactly why they didn't is
because
you know these guys are
reactive they're
all all that you can only
conservatives
bitches hold on hold on our
stuff down
what do you and they saw they'd
see just
doing stuff stupidly they
should take
both these things down they
stinking is
the problem I
with them is not that their
political
one way or the other or or just
naughty
it's that it's encouraging more
people
to do this stuff but we don't
need it
well was this the synthesized
voice that
did this deep fake was that
like the one
they did with Joe Rogan is that
the is
that the same company that put
this
together yeah I dad I did I
didn't dig
into it well all I'm saying is
just like
when we listen to audio only of
a
television show that's when you
hear the
bad acting I have not seen this
deep
fake video I was not seeing
Zuckerberg
face only what was burned into
my head
from seeing him on television
yeah no he
did not sound like him just
well your
your it's the same thing you're
right
when we do the video clips of
you know
some TV show and then we just
use the
audio of the acting yeah it's
terrible
and you just start noticing it
and
that's probably you you I had
the
disadvantage of seeing the
thing and
with his face and so I'm
looking to hear
him more than you are Ryan I
did I hear
a little bit of him in there a
little
bit even though it's fake yeah
but yeah
you're right I'm not gonna deny
that and
it's not that I never said it
was great
part is no I'm because I've
read about
this I've not seen it or heard
it and
I'm just like oh really this is
what
everyone's all jacked about
it's no good
just know around just play it
for you
and it's it's only 17 seconds
long yeah
well everybody that we're going
to oh
we're we've gone long speaking
of long
so we're going to shut it down
for now
but we'll return on Sunday

fact that
I'd lost 90 percent of my
income that's
not going to stop the fact I
literally
can't make a living anymore
even though
I have a degree I thought it
was forever
I was valedictorian in college
I can't
just climb YouTube lawyer ian
Corzine
and I'm a creator too
if your revenue is derived from
advertising which I think most
people
who are YouTube creators are
assumed as
and Millennials who advertise
and don't
give a crap about it and they
just
forget that the check you see
is from
the advertising that shows up
and if you
couldn't do anything that is
adverse to
that then the ads will stop
it's how
simple is this to understand
[Music]
this context just wasn't enough
all this
rider changes getting rough
I'd hate to see the whole
planet die
there's a planet crisis you've
been
warned
you had an impact just by being
more if
we don't fix this so
[Music]
[Music]
