curry and
from northern Silicon Valley
I'm Jesse
okay you're in a mood today I
can
already tell what well I didn't
get a
proper hit it I got a and then
what kind
of opening was that I mean it
was my
opening it was spectacular
okay well there some ideas for
the
opening I could come up with
nothing
sorry problem and mediaand
oh yeah big problem really yeah
we're no longer seeing
impeachment news
as the most important item
discussed
it's gone off the radar well
I've been
by bit they will be after the
debates
which are on Tuesday yeah they
will do a
pivot mmm I'm not so sure man
we've got
us a story that is so big it's
it's too
hard to resist see and that has
already
switched it's now in hot
rotation all
right tell me what it but tell
me about
I'm not sure what you're
talking about
but I'm sure I'll I will know
in a
minute Meg's it
No yes all day yesterday
wall-to-wall the hairy
animation okay
pleasure wall
Walter wall okay now that you
brought
this up I'm now reached and
myself not
grabbing this clip of Michael
Bloomberg
going on and on about the about
the
thing oh he's being interviewed
in a
train and they asked him this
the Aster
that and the only thing he was
excited
about her seemed to want to
talk about
was this the fact that Harry
and Megan
are trying to extract themselves
although a lot of people just
think
Megan has gaslighted Harry well
there's
a lot going on here first of
all the
obsession with the royal family
in the
United Kingdom for one and as
you know a
lot of the press here in the
United
States just copy and paste the
Daily
Mail anyway I'm looking at you
Silicon
Valley shit rags it's like oh
this is a
good story click me yeah yeah
I'll write
it a little differently no
problem
America is obsessed were
obsessed with
royalty and were were just all
shitty
about it and one after another
of these
royalty experts on CNN
yesterday just
boom boom boom boom boom they
love the
love love love Megan and Harry
and it's
obvious they got the Diana deal
I'm sorry oh the Diana deal yeah
what's the Diana deals you're
gonna die
that's the Diana deal
you have sobbing he's gonna get
killed
by the I Do's men no I do oh
you think
she's gonna get killed by the
Kingsmen
oh yeah oh yeah I think it's
all over
listen she she came in this is
not a
real royal he's the he's the
son of the
was in the Navy captain or
whoever Diana
had that whatever redhead was a
problem
yeah so the Queen brought sit
all right
you know what it's okay bring
in Megan
and then uh oh she's brown I'm
shipping
you off to Africa which is I'm
telling
you racist they are over there
so yeah you you go do a tour of
Africa
that'll be good because you
know you'll
you'll help reconnect the the
bonds with
the the British Empire and with
the
royal family because you know
you know
you're kind of brown so yeah
but then
Harry I think caught on to what
was
really going on and this is
precisely
how it went down with Diana and
she
tried to extract herself she
went on the
world stage she did a lot of
good and
she wound up dead and there's
this
interview that I found through
with
Prince Harry I'm fairly sure
it's the
real deal it could be a deep
fake but it
was video so I you know I
watched as
close as I could it sounds like
him I
think it's him and what he's
saying
isn't all that extraordinary
unless you
think about the Diana deal my
mum told
me a certain set of values of
which I
will always try and uphold
despite the
the role in the job that's
sometimes
that entails if you don't I
mean but I
think I always I always protect
my
family and now I have a family
to
protect
so everything that everything
that she
went through and what happens is
incredibly brought every single
day and
that's not me being paranoid
that's just
me
not wanting a repeat of the
past and if
anybody else knew what I knew
if better
father be a husband and anyone
he
probably did be doing exactly
what I
what I'm doing as well if
anyone else
knew what I knew you'd probably
do the
same thing that's what he says
now can
we interpret that as the
paparazzi will
be the death of you I don't
think
they're quite at that level but
certainly Megan Marco has all
of the
same hmm personality traits
with the gas
with Hollywood yes I have a
quick
analysis if anyone knew what I
knew now
knowing that he was born from
out of
from Diana via some character
that you
mentioned earlier yeah he may
know
because he's not a lizard if
you listen
to this report they're hanging
out with
lizards your reporting is that
they're
gonna move to LA for the most
part do
you have a residence in Canada
as well
but it looks like Megan is
going back to
LA yes I mean that's where she
grew up
that's where her mother is
she's an LA
girl you know that's where her
friends
are you know and also be since
marrying
Harry they've got more showbiz
friends
like the Clooney's and Optra
that's where they want to be
that's
where Megan doesn't she take a
lot of
advice from Oprah and the
Clooney's and
then that I mean oh we're
hearing that
they have a lot of advice on
this and
encouragement on this to break
out and
how the Clooney's man the
Clooney's did
it there's proof fencing but I
cannot
underestimate what an
earthquake this is
in in the UK as far as the
break from
protocol the Queen didn't know
anything
about it the royal family are
furious
Harry's father Prince Charles
is furious
it really is a huge scandal so
they're
not abdicating they're just
kind of
stepping back so really they
they want
the benefits but they just
don't want
the full-time gig exactly so
they're
becoming they're giving up
being senior
Royals which means they keep a
HRH title
you know
still be a princessy Stila
prints but
they don't have to go
she's not a princess
she's a duchess isn't she yeah
I am she
was refused princess dumb yes
by the
Queen she's not a princess and
that's
what pissed her off apparently
you know
she'll still be a princess and
a prince
and the main thing is they said
they
want to make their own money
and this is
what everybody's upset in
England about
because they get I don't
understand
there's a very obvious path for
them to
make money I don't get it why
is this so
hard for everybody to
understand all
they need to do is start a
podcast money
in the bank moment they get
around four
million pounds a year from the
Queen and
from Prince Charles to run their
household pay their staff and
they'll
still continue getting a lot of
that
money for quite a while and
unless they
do really want to work and
stand on
their own by the way five point
to me
I'm being told 5.2 million u.s.
that's a
pretty good tidy sum of money
how in the
world do you protect these two
when
they're in Los Angeles they
want to come
over to the Gallagher's house
are we
gonna have a big contingent of
security
officers around Los Angeles
they are
guaranteed security for life by
from the
British people and the British
taxpayer
pays for it which is around a
million
dollars us a year so that won't
change
whatever they do that will not
change
you said make their own money
do sheep
go back to acting do you think
well I
mean there's been a lot of
debates about
that that you know we think
that you
know she'll be doing more doing
more
paid appearances and maybe some
acting
if it's deemed to be tasteful
enough but
they're certainly gonna be
earning money
in different ways that they
could not do
in England so I remain baffled
by this
being 2020 and people still
having this
obsession with these fake
people with
funky hats who have great
houses in the
middle of awesome places and
they pay
them because you're all it's
tradition
we need to keep the tradition
yeah this is all mega-mega this
is all
Megan's doing
Terry's pussy-whipped he's it
he's
nothing sad so everybody thinks
I'm
pretty sure but the fact
remains and
we'll see this coming week I
have a
feeling that there's so much
fatigue of
seeing Skeletor Pelosi and
everyone
bitching and moaning and Moscow
Mitch
and all this crap particularly
on the
cable news networks this is a
breath of
fresh air and awesome I can get
obsessed
remember hmm
during the MSNBC began as kind
of a
generalized Microsoft joint
venture with
NBC sure did I had worked there
I where
I helped them launch and they
had
no ratings they couldn't get
jack
ratings we had a show called
the site
that was on MSNBC was a text
thing they
they couldn't get any ratings
the thing
was a dud and they did the
Diana got
killed boom and they switched
their
coverage all to 24/7 Diana
Diana Diana
Diana and then they said this
is we get
numbers hell with this other
crap
exactly and I I guarantee you
CNN is
seeing numbers they did this
with mh17 a
full year they stayed on that
topic top
of the news every hour every
panel was
all about buh
where'd this plane go was that
mh17 was
a 3/3 the one that I just
remember the
numbers the one that
disappeared yeah
and it was an obsession for
them and
there was there were other
things going
on in the year I mean we had a
show so
something was happening and now
they've
grabbed onto this and if you
got a
British accent then you are in
like
Flynn you've got money in the
bank just
say you're a royalty watcher
and you're
good to go
and they're all cute all the
all the
women who show up to talk about
you know
who are royalty watchers the
good-looking the easy to look
at I think
it's a ratings bonanza and it's
gonna be
very hard for them to move away
from it
yes like is slightly addicting
like
tasty candy yeah and and what
it is and
why it is and it'll always
baffle me but
it is a fact so that's going to
be
problematic then that of course
will
affect us too
unless clips just don't have
any good
clips or CNN making fools of
themselves
and before we go well before we
dive
into the topic likely democracy
now
never make that change so we
had there
were a number of severe storms
that came
through the Southwest United
States also
through canned Naevia in fact I
got text
from sedusa fur he said the
worst
hailstorm ever coming your way
Park
everything in the garage where
I think
he said Park your best vehicle
hit the
garage the storm came through
it was it
was short and violent but there
were no
Heather there was no hail and
of course
I knew exactly what this was it
also
came from the southeast it's so
obvious
this is from our rain sticks
probably
this is the blowback do we can
always
expect ladylike using them well
but just
a couple of reports there Andy
from
Terrigal Beach in the morning
Adam
hadn't rained here for many
months
before the rain stick all the
grass was
totally brown we routinely had
days over
a hundred and ten Fahrenheit
and were in
constant fear of the fires
after the
rain stick we had at least four
days of
proper rain and the grass has
started to
grow I think this would be true
also for
sir Chris in Marrickville and
Serb as in
bat obey my father who doesn't
listen to
the podcast has no rain and
there's
still many areas burning out of
control
could it be we are only getting
the rain
stick effect in places where no
agenda
is being listened to
I'm interested to know if
there's a
correlation between where the
listeners
are and where the rain fell
many thanks
I believe so oh I've got
totally and I
watched a movie I don't know
how oh I
think it's relatively new it's
not a
great movie it's called the
Mandela
effect
and the movie centers around a
father a
couple and their daughter dies
she
drowns on the beach and he
starts
noticing the Mandela effect and
the
movie kind of you should
explain what
that is because I think that's
been
passed over ok lever long since
forgotten that one the Mandela
effect is
it gets its name from things in
history
that that a large group of
people are
very sure were a certain way
and turned
out not to be true one is that
the guy
on the monopoly box has a
monocle he
does not the Berenstain Bears
turns out
it was Berenstain Bears Sinbad
was never
a genie in a movie and it gets
its name
from Mandela that the there's a
belief
that Nelson Mandela died while
in prison
and there's even video of
George Bush
saying he's dead while he was
in prison
at W Bush so that's the Mandela
effect
and the ID and the thinking is
is this a
glitch in the matrix you know
what is
going on so they kind of used
this
Mandela effect to get into the
we live
in a simulation and long story
short the
dad who's a game developer he
figures
out a way with the
supercomputer I know
it's going off the rails to
already set
a mount point just before his
daughter
drowns and then reboots it
basically
overloads the entire simulation
that's
running that's running the
world and
then it reboots right before he
makes a
decision that in this case and
in the
previous case his daughter died
now it
makes a different decision and
that
thinking behind it is that the
simulation
throughout the world whatever
is driving
it whatever's powering it is not
powerful enough to keep
everything
running all at the same time so
very
much like a video game
until someone observes a
certain area
it's just dormant it's dead
it's not
running it's completely still
and then
when someone or it maybe has to
be more
than one person sees this area
then the
sim camp comes back to life and
that's
where these glitches sometimes
and I
said it glitches cut yourself
though
yeah I did but yeah it shall be
fried so
so just taking this as a premise
I think the Karma and the rain
sticks is
a version of that it's a
version of
somehow we're cutting through
the system
and we're able to affect change
on the
simulation in certain areas or
with
certain individuals
that's what they're thinking
yes you
know you know you agree a kind
of with
with Scott Adams he said he
likes to
throw in the simulation gag
every so
often our really yeah yeah but
he's
approaching it from an
intellectual
standpoint you know which I'm
just I'm
talking about a movie I just
watched the
movie and it added I'm impact
on me but
we've had a lot of success with
jobs
karma we've had a lot of I
don't think
the rain sticks have failed
once every
single time we've been
requested to
shake the sticks it happens and
we
always get the blowback with
bad weather
here in Austin I don't know if
you had
any but I always get bad
weather after
the rains we had a lot in
Washington
state test for sure but talking
about
going back to Skylanders about
you and
him being in agreement mm-hmm
I've got a little work by this
way I
have a clip from Scott Adams
okay and it
has a little bit to do with
this thesis
and it sort dis bothersome that
you and
Scott Adams are an agreement on
certain
things this one is really the
one that's
the is the bad one it really
it's
annoying they say the least
this is just
the clip is Matt Gaetz he's
talking
about Matt Gaetz being a perfect
presidential candidate now have
I told
you before the following things
number
one Matt Gaetz
is a strong contender and I'll
go so far
as to say probable presidential
contender at some point in the
future
probable probable winner as
well because
just based on his skill set he
has all
the skills he has all the
skills I don't
think he's missing a single
skill to be
a GOP candidate and I think you
would I
think he would clean the table
on any
Democrat that ran against them
with the
exception there's only one
exception
there's only one Democrat I
could
imagine in the future remember
we're
projecting five ten years in
the future
or whatever we did not say Oh
see that's
last bit again I love it when
you
produce is in the future or
whatever
well we agree we agree on a Oh
see we
sure do
sandy sandy otos residents and
residents
Andy yeah yeah I haven't
thought about
it in a long time she has a dog
though
she's got that she just got a
dog you
don't know kids she's got a dog
so
that's perfect
got a pooch for the White House
well
[Music]
I think the president has been
put on
notice
about this in particular but
there was
something that happened that
caught my
eye and these are the things
that we
interpreted in a particular way
from the
New York Times a former United
States
Marine posed as a security team
member
for marine one the helicopter
the
transports President Trump and
breached
two checkpoints last week at
Palm Beach
International Airport ah they
used to
pull this stunt with Obama Hans
they did
it with Obama all the time it's
just a
message just so you know we can
get to
you anytime we want well this
brings us
back to the Jeffrey Epstein
hanging and
some of the screwing this has
been
showing up the BBC reporting
that
apparently commis daughter was
somehow
involved in the disappearance
of the of
the tapes she's a special
prosecutor at
the Southern District New York
she's and
she was put in there
specifically yeah
the tapes disappear they kill
we kept
the wrong tapes here I have to
have the
clip by Jeffrey Epstein hanging
story
with this in a secure prison
facility is
the warning to everybody that
everybody
can be as done if you if you
would they
want to get rid of you it's
very easy to
do and now they've pulled a
stunt with
now Trump has his own people
see this
guy he just slipped through
yeah what
did they do with this guy once
they
caught him
did they bring him aside and
grill him
about how why he did is who
who'd who's
behind it and throw him in jail
which
they should do he was released
on a
$100,000 bond according to
court records
neither mr. magna nor his
lawyer could
be reached Saturday if
convicted he
faces a maximum of 3 years in
prison a
fine of $250,000 in a year of
supervised
release so they let they let
him off
with the reality how that goes
to see how what goes how that
goes
whether the guy doesn't minute
in prison
or probably not buddy
the guy was he is listed in the
Florida
Department of Law Enforcement
sex
offender registry he was
released from
the Marines dishonorable
discharge
because of some sex offense
apparently
and this guy with fake
credentials mind
you fake credential the only
reason why
he got stopped as a sheriff's
deputy
noticed he wasn't wearing the
right
Marine Corps uniform standard
during
presidential travel well how
about that
huh all you got to do is have a
fake ID
and kind of look the part
message well
thank goodness for the local
police
message to you Rudy here's the
Epstein
clip since you brought it up
jailhouse
video of the area around
Jeffrey Epstein
cell on the day of an apparent
suicide
attempt no longer exists federal
prosecutors made that admission
to a
judge yesterday they said the
new york
city jail thought it preserved
the
footage of guards finding
Epstein on
July 23rd but it actually saved
video
from a different part of the
jail the
FBI also determined the
recording wasn't
on the backup system due to
technical
errors later hanged himself in
August
while he awaited trial on sex
trafficking charges I'm
surprised that
no one has used the glitch
I keep looking for it no one
has used
the glitch word in this
unfortunate
circumstance where the backup
even
didn't have a copy Tao is so
it's so
coincidental that's unbelievable
well glitch maybe code
yeah for a shitty shitty code
how's that
it's code for crap code that's
what it
is but this this is not a
glitch they
could have they could have
easily have
said it was a glitch they could
have
said something went wrong in
the backup
none of that died yeah I'm
surprised
maybe absence of the term aim
is the
meaning possibly possibly all
right
let's talk about Iran looks
like we're
getting more right by the day
well let's
see I do have maybe a backup
kind of a
background err overview
overview of that
you Iran Iran update on
democracy now
might be appropriate the House
of
Representatives has voted to
approve a
non-binding War Powers
Resolution aimed
at limiting president Trump's
ability to
take further military action
against
Iran without congressional
approval
president Trump ratcheted up
tensions
with Iran by assassinating
Iranian
commander Qasem Soleimani in a
targeted
drone strike at the Baghdad
International Airport last week
Thursday's 224 to 194 House vote
included three Republicans
voting YES
and eight Democrats voting no
the
resolution now heads to the
Senate the
vote came as iran's ambassador
to the
united nations blasted the u.s.
at the
UN Security Council speaking on
behalf
of Iranian Foreign Minister
Javad Zarif
who was unable to address the
Security
Council himself after the u.s.
denied
him a visa in violation of a
1947 u.s.
UN agreement this is ambassador
Majid a trivanti I'm here today
to
deliver a statement on behalf
of his
Excellency mr. Zarif
whose visa was denied by the
United
States in contravention of the
headquarters agreement and here
is his
statement we are meeting today
to
discuss a momentous imperative
we are we
are all confronted here the
world is
that it is at the crossroads
the end of
monopolies on power one
unhinged regime
is he said unhinged regime
do you have the talking points
on the
prompter is the question is it
just
right in the end of monopolies
on power
one unhinged regime is
frantically
clamoring to turn back time
thousands
gathered in Chicago New York
Seattle and
dozens of other cities to
protest war
with Iran Thursday night the
New York
Times has obtained video that
appears to
show an Iranian missile hitting
the
Boeing 737 jet that crashed
shortly
after takeoff and Tehran
Wednesday
killing all 176 people on board
all
right so there's a lot to
deconstruct
here I'd like to go back a few
days
before we had the admission from
apparently an Iranian top dog
well
before before you go back a few
days
let's go back even a few more
days so I
can get this one thing out of
the way
which is the guy who died that's
triggered the whole thing we
want to get
his name out of the way
what would the clip be called
guy who
died there's no clip I just
have that
yes go for it because nobody
talks about
this guy so it's not a clip I
can't get
a clip got it but his name was
now Ruiz
while lead huh mid lived in
Sacramento
the best story written about
him it was
in the Sacramento Bee Whitman
is white
because his wife was upset
about this to
say the least
and I'll just read a few
paragraphs
Hameed who worked as a linguist
and had
attended classes at American
River
College was killed at a
military base
new near Kirkuk on a rocket
attack the
u.s. blamed Khatib Hezbollah a
militia
group his wife was notified by
his
employer Valiant integrated
services hmm
valiant is I'm just reading
just a
couple of random graphs so you
get a
feeling for this valiant is
based in
Herndon Virginia and offers a
range of
international services including
interpreters involving INSCOM
the Army
Intelligence and Security
Command
support for special operation
forces and
counterintelligence services
according
to its website this is so spook
the guy
sorry so the guy was a spook
amongst
others and got killed and
this was not acceptable so hey
the whole
thing began when they don't
start
killing our people
exactly well you'd think that
that would
be the message I've learned
over the
years that when you that you're
the use
of the word but is you got to
be very
careful with the but one must
be careful
with the but word when you say
something
and then you put a butt in
there or if
you say something I say well
while yes
John indeed but yeah there's
always a
big but it negates everything
that came
before the but then it's only
post but
that matters and this is all
that I
heard over the past couple of
days
when this all came out and of
course we
have a montage there is no
question that
sulemani had American blood on
his hands
that he was a bad actor in the
region
but if there is anything that
we have
learned Soleimani is a person
with
American blood on his hands but
we also
know their this guy was was a
bad news
guy but he was the ranking
official no
illusions about soleimani he
was a
terrible person
did bad things but it's so
funny was a
bad guy but the sulemani is an
evil man
he has absolutely ordered the
murder of
hundreds of Americans but
sulemani was a
malignant and dangerous
character
Soleimani has been a threat to
America
and Americans and our allies
for a very
long time
however undoubtedly general
Soleimani
was a very bad man sulemani is
certainly
a murderous individual but
therein
Salamone was a bad guy there's
no
question about that but this is
an awful
person
however soul I was a terrorist
so no
one's going to lament his death
but so
this is all politicizing the
event and
it was immediate and it was
shameless
Ahnold on all sides I do have
to mention
stuff
I didn't realize that there's an
intellectual variation of but
which is
however however I know I
considered
using that myself I was like
yes darling
however however people who you
want even
you want even here the shoe
coming so it
was completely politicized
which so
anyone who is now boo who wore
fu what a
bunch of phonies immediately
taking to
politicization they don't care
about
even the guy who was a spook
he's
American citizen there were
other offers
just contractors or other
Americans of
whatever ilk who were also
wounded shit
was blown up now that doesn't
matter at
all they don't care and by the
way they
don't care they don't care how
many
servicemen and women get killed
you
never see that on the news oh
maybe
there's a little announcement
here there
no one cares anymore at least
in the
news media it's not important
it's all
about power and politics he's
Joe Biden
on the trail six months ago
here in New
York City I made the case that
Donald
Trump was dangerously
incompetent and
incapable of world leadership
in the
past few days in the wake of
the killing
of the Iranian general
Soleimani I think
Donald Trump has proven beyond
that
comment beyond dispute the
haphazard
decision-making process that
led up to
it the failure to consult with
our
allies or Congress and the
reckless
disregard for the consequences
that
would surely follow was in my
view
dangerously incompetent we have
not
heard a sober minded
explanation to
assure the American reassure the
American people that this
decision and
its consequences were thought
through no
level-headed words meant to
dial down
the tensions and to take us off
the path
of conflict no press conference
or
consultation with our Congress
I'd love
that he's asking for press
conferences
with Congress or a consultation
inches
shake elicitor no level-headed
words
meant to dial down the tensions
and to
take us off the path of
conflict no
press conference or
consultation with
our Congress consultation sits
No well we heard so far from
this
president our tweets
threats and tantrums and
however you may
feel about American military
presence in
the Middle East there's a right
way and
a wrong way to draw down our
troops our
troop presence getting unserem
honestly
kicked out is unequivocally the
wrong
way complete politicization
which I
guess Joad make sense that he's
doing
that but again it's it's all
about Trump
and it's very clear it should
be obvious
to most that this will be the
next
impeachment the article of
impeachment
or whatever they're going to
call it
that's why the War Powers
Resolution
came out which is resolution
it's not
law it doesn't restrict
anything above
what the Constitution says
which is very
clear and which has been
ignored by
every president since I've been
alive
except for that one time when
we got
approval from Congress to go to
war
against Iraq Afghanistan we
just went
into all kinds of places so it
doesn't
matter whether they give
permission or
not it's it's a crapshoot but
the idea
is to catch him catch him doing
the next
time he kills some evil guy
where then
we're done we're out and we're
gonna
impeach him again he's jackie
speier who
is from california on CNN are
you
blaming the president in any
way for the
fact that it appears that iran
shot down
that jetliner no but I am
saying that
but for the escalation in the
actions
taken by Iran there would not
be a
hundred and seventy six people
dead
today it all emanates emanates
from the
killing of Soleimani well again
the
administration would say that
sulemani
what's interesting here is the
CNN host
is is really trying to explain
to her
the viewer or I don't know that
well
hold on a second you know it
really was
the Iranians who shot something
off and
apparently it it hit the plane
I mean
that's really is them and I
think he's
not doing it to say lighten up
on the
president I think he's doing it
to allow
her to continuously say yeah
but if he hadn't gotten up in
the
morning yeah none of this would
happen
if he wasn't president none of
this
would have them well again the
administration would say that
sulemani
himself was plotting attacks on
Americans so the attack on
soleimani
itself emanates from Soleimani
but just
to be clear it was Iran that
shot down
apparently that's yet what
culpability
do they have how do you think
they
should be held to account
certainly it needs to be looked
at from
you know many perspectives I
mean if it
was accidental that certainly
needs to
be taken into account as well
but we
need to remember how this all
started
this Trump was born that's how
it
started I started from the time
the
President of the United States
reneged
on renig isn't it reneged
I've heard it pronounced both
ways no
you know I kind of remember that
conversation Renee this has
started from
the time the President of the
United
States reneged on the nuclear
deal that
we had with Iran and then
imposed severe
sanctions on Iran that has hurt
them
economically then called the
Revolutionary Guard a terrorist
organization
he keeps bragging they didn't
call he
didn't call it a terrorist
organization
it was designated as such I'm
not sure
if that needs congressional
approval but
it was a quite a conversation
and yes
then they were they were
designated not
necessarily by the president the
Revolutionary Guard a terrorist
organization he keeps ramping
it up and
the result is that they respond
we
should be at the negotiating
table
trying to develop a plan for
peace
trying to develop a new jcpoa if
necessary with the presidents
and
Fermata on it
so that we don't have Iran
building
nuclear weapons but what
generated them
shooting missiles in the air
was the
fact that they were providing
vengeance
or a tit-for-tat to the United
States
for having killed their general
orange
man bad let's look at that she's
shameless yeah well and the the
Republicans were out in mass to
in
particular Mike Pompeo let's
remember
that he is also former spook
and he
knows a lot and he's been an a
big guy
they've been wanting to kill
this guy
for a decade so they played a
clip of
his while talking to watermelon
had John
Kerry on CNN on the jcpoa you
know when
you were watching President
Trump
earlier this week there
standing at the
White House he he said it was
the Obama
administration who who
essentially paid
for those Iranian missiles that
were
aimed at Americans and then your
successor Mike Pompeo was asked
about
that and about you on Fox News
and this
is what he said stop stop stop
she has this is what Brooke
yeah Brooke
Brooke she has the same cadence
even
though she steps up to speed a
little
bit as the jackie speier did
which
indicates to me they're all in
the same
milieu oh they probably go to
lunch
together definitely sound almost
identical in the way in their
cadence
yeah they do I'm sorry going
yeah that's
okay well and and by the way
Trump did
start this this political part
which
Pompey was propagating they had
the
resources they had the ability
to build
out the militias in Syria to
underwrite
Hezbollah to build their
missile program
all the things that we are now
confronting our direct result
of the
resources that the regime had
available
as a result of that terrible
2016 that
this could be an eventualities
money
being used so he already
spilled the
beans on that it's now coming to
fruition
so I don't know about John
Kerry knowing
anything previously but there
you go
bunch of chickenshit Hawks out
there so
well you know if Obama hadn't
given all
that for the cash the pallets
of caches
wouldn't have happened well
please if
Obama wasn't born it wouldn't
have
happened it's just it's
disgusting I'm
not gonna play Kerry's clip
because we
have a rule about that anyway
so yeah so
oh you know what there was beat
you and
I'm glad that you are biting by
it one
of our producers Leela puke did
an end
of show mix which had another
another
one of those talking points
everyone's
saying it now he didn't send me
the
source material I could not
find the
source material as far as I
know it's
not as Supercuts so I'm just
gonna I'll
play the full thing at the end
of the
show obviously I just want you
to hear
another meme that was out there
that he
expertly put together in this
end of
show mix our missiles are big
powerful
accurate lethal and fast
it was not a scintilla of
evidence
presented to justify the
so-called
imminent threat there's no clear
evidence of an imminent threat
you can't
have two stories you can't say
that
something was imminent when it
was not
there was no evidence of
evidence and
specific this administration
has not
made the case that there was an
imminent
threat they did not just show
us that
they were dealing with an
imminent
threat I saw no evidence of that
whatsoever the president puts
his
interests above America's
interest okay
so you get the idea
imminent threat this is what
was lacking
and this is where gates who you
played a
clip from earlier strayed from
the
Republican Party and said you
know yeah
I think I'm gonna be on board
with the
War Powers Resolution which is
easy for
him to do because it's the same
as
what's in already on the books
it's just
kind of a confirmation so him
imminent
threat is there was a lack of
imminent
threat he just went off crazy
unhinged
you heard the talking points
from the
Ambassador there unhinged crazy
imminence there was no imminent
threat
what are you doing just
probably -
probably just to distract from
the
impeachment but it really does
shit
which is a talking point that
yeah I
think I have a clip on this
okay let's
see worse I didn't think about
you jump
me you got me it caught me on my
flat-footed I'm and I've really
done a
poor job in naming the clips
today so I
can not find anything okay
but I do have it but I don't I
can't
find it never mind just it
would be here
it is Colonel Wilkerson on Iran
and
impeachment I think that would
be the
one in December 17 1998 the
front page
banner headline red impeachment
vote in
house delayed as Clinton
launches Iraq
air strike citing military need
to move
swiftly Colonel Wilkerson can
you
respond for 15 years Amy I've
taught
this to over 400 students on two
campuses national security
decision-making is what it's
called one
of the influences I emphasize is
domestic politics I would be a
traitor
to the academic curriculum
which I teach
I would be a traitor to the
truth if I
didn't say of course that had
something
to do with it and watch out
because
there will be more because
there will be
more impeachment play the
second half of
that clip which is final words
this is a
world Christian going off any
final
words Colonel Wilkerson as we
move into
this very critical period with
President
Trump saying if Iran responds
to the
u.s. assassination of one of
their
leaders that the US will hit 52
sites
including cultural institutions
which is
by the way considered a war
crime 52 for
the 50 oh yes war criminal I'm
sorry
that would that's that's really
we need
to we need to take him to the
criminal
court in the hague
that's where Trump belongs
which is by
the way considered a war crime
52 for
the 52 hostages Iran took more
than 40
years ago if that were the case
and we
actually executed such a
package we
would solidify 80 million
people in a
way that for the next 30 years
would
cost the lives of countless
Americans
businesspeople too
and so forth throughout the
region and
perhaps throughout the world I
know what
the packages look like for
bombing Iran
okay hey goes on well let's
just move
quickly through the the facts
and then
we'll deconstruct what probably
was
going on here so now we know
that well
yeah well here's Trump actually
I
thought that was kind of a cute
clip but
somebody could have made a
mistake on
the other side could have could
have
made a mistake it was flying it
was it
was flying and not our system
now how
does nothing to do with us it
was flying
in a pretty rough neighborhood
and
somebody a man it's what you
get for
flying in a rough neighborhood
man you
shouldn't be flying in rough
neighborhoods at 8,000 feet
pretty rough
neighborhood and somebody could
have
made a mistake I some people
say it was
mechanical I personally don't
think
that's even a question
personally and
then we have of course Trudeau
we have
intelligence from multiple
sources
including our allies was this
after that
it was already in the news that
he says
we have intelligence or city
actually no
I think this was just before
but that
particular clip intrigued me
for some
other reason which is when did
Trudeau
decide to wear a year and a cut
of a
goatee yeah like an evil guy's
goatee he
looks like the bad guy in one
of these
movies yeah he's he's roughing
himself
up is this getting ready for
war baby we
have intelligence from multiple
sources
including our allies and our own
intelligence
the evidence indicates that the
plane
was shot down by an Iranian the
surface-to-air missile this may
well
have been unintentional may
well have
been let's see
always of interest when these
things
happen who was on the aircraft
today's grief all-consuming at
so many
of Canada's universities here
at Western
a Morial to promising students
their
futures robbed
it's Rehan Masood Zachary lost
his
friend had as Hayat devotee a
PhD
student we are hoping that she
lost the
plane and we saw the official
named
official list of names of
students from
more than 10 Canadian
universities died
in the crash driven by troubled
politics
with the US and Canada's
academic
reputation this country is a
popular
destination for Iranian
students is does
Canada have a reputation for
their
education they have a couple
really
outstanding colleges yeah they
got a
note from one of our Knights
wheels
being one of them one of our
Knights who
is an intelligence analyst I do
not know
where but he asked me to keep
his
identity anonymous in this case
I'll
read his noted short it's
coming out
that the Canadians and a few
Russians on
the Ukrainian on the Ukraine
plane shot
down were primarily scientists
and
engineers working in Iranian
nuclear
plants fearful that those
plants could
be US drone targets the
scientists
decided to leave as a group so
no one
would be held hostage until the
conflict
was over because they knew the
plans and
operations of the Iran nuclear
program
they could be debriefed so Iran
told the
scientists they would be moved
to safety
but warned they would not be
allowed to
leave Iran they did not listen
now I
don't know if that's true but
that would
certainly give a reason for the
Iranians
to purposely target that
aircraft
i its fanciful you know it
sounds great
for the movie I I don't know
that it for
the movie says Tom Clancy
totally
totally it really doesn't
matter because
the administration the president
everybody knows one thing in the
legendary words of Rahm Emanuel
never
let a crisis go to waste
immediately we're trying to get
shit
started in Iran which is the
whole point
the point is you need to have an
uprising for regime change so
the
president tweeted in Farsi
which also
had a translation but he
tweeted in
Farsi to the brave
long-suffering people
of Iran I've stood with you
since the
beginning of my presidency and
my
administration will continue to
stand
with you we are following your
protests
closely and are inspired by
your courage
Facebook is now being not just
Facebook
Twitter but I think Facebook's
the main
one Iranian the journey a
journalist's
Russian journalist of course
but I think
some in the US possibly are
demanding an
end of Iranian censorship of
Iranian
media on Instagram and Facebook
according to RT Facebook
thought police
is censoring pro Iran posts to
comply
with US sanctions I'm not sure
about
that but I'm damn sure that the
intelligence services are
inside of
Facebook and making sure that
we don't
see anything that we don't want
to what
we want is people protesting
against the
regime we want flags we want
some signs
we want banners it's full on
it's full
on every they're really trying
to spark
it up now right down to the
Ambassador
from the United Kingdom
standing out
there oh why is this is this
not gonna
play now all of a sudden let's
see if it
plays like this now crap one of
my clips
is broken
damn it was a good one too the
ambassador to the UK was
arrested at a
an anti regime protest which of
course
is played off as I was a
mistake I was
just was a vigil I was there
for five
minutes and then I left and
they had
detained me or they arrested me
and we
figured it out no this is
full-on this
is the idea we need protests we
need
images of protests you will need
Facebook and Instagram protests
nothing
else and I think they're going
to do it
they may just pull it off
I'm looking at everyone or two I
mentioned that at the Canadian
laws of
these not the majority but
there was a
lot of Canadians killed in the
crash
yeah and I'm just relating back
to what
your spook informant may have
said well
there was a they were connected
to the
University of Alberta okay a
lot of
students and I guess some
professors and
based on what he said I
actually look up
University of Alberta nuclear
facilities
they have assisted the
University of
Alberta is one of the nuke
places they
have slowpoke a nuclear
facility they do
a bunch of they do nucleotide
productions they do neutron
activation
analysis they do all these
high-end in
the middle of nowhere the
University of
Alberta they do these this is
it is a be
center of research and there
was a story
that I can't follow it makes
sense what
he said based on this if we're
gonna put
two and two together well
that's that's
obviously one way we could look
at it
and I'm pretty sure from the
evidence
that we have and also how many
of these
things are out there and the
similarities between the 1918
was the 89
in 1989 downing of an Iranian
jetliner
that we took responsibility for
which
was done with a man pad with a
Stinger
missile fuckin a shoulder-fired
those
things are pretty good no was
it was
done off of a ship by one of
the surface
theorem is wrong from yes it
was a
Stinger on a ship I looked it up
a Stinger on a ship yeah it was
a
surface-to-air does that be an
accident
it wasn't it wasn't an accident
there
was an accident that they
targeted that
they were confused it was it was
confusion it wasn't purposeful
so they
say who the hell knows but I
like the
theory that the Iranians were
so afraid
that they killed all the
scientists I
mean I don't like it but you
know here's
a little tip for four people
trying to
escape so they all got on the
plane
together not thinking you know
about the
possibility of them all getting
killed
it was one of them couple
should have
stayed back and then snuck out
and
taking a train out of town I
mean
there's other ways to leave
seems to me
yeah I think wanted to miss the
flight
and so there's been some
stories about
that now conversely let's just
say
that's all coincidence it
happens to be
nuclear students scientists in
studying
scientists although there was a
report
that I did not clip where
someone said
that girl was that PhD in
disguise you
know meaning that she was
incredibly
smart but there you go it said
it could
also have been that we wanted
and
although a very risky and very
evil
scenario let's just take it as a
possibility that they spoofed
the
transponder made it look like
something
else we discussed this is a
possibility
just to get the Iranians to
shoot it
down and then to say uh exactly
what's
happening now I mean the result
is the
same it really doesn't matter
who did it
or why they did it the result
is it
happened and now we see report
after
report filtered expertly
filtered
expertly because if you look
around
outside of the bag face bag in
the
twitters you'll see that
there's you
know it's from all sides
there's all
kinds of things going on in
Iran it's
not just anti-regime but that's
what
we're going to see well this
stop for a
second there also reflect on a
couple of
other incidents that took place
and this
was from an Israeli
intelligence and
this took place a number of
years ago
worthy a couple of a very
famous Iranian
nuclear scientists were were
assassinated in the streets one
by a guy
in a motorcycle that ya that's
not that
long ago even yeah and this was
attributed by some people I
think Ray
McGovern was one of them to
Mossad
and so Mossad could have
actually been
involved because they're pretty
good
about staying out of the
limelight they
give if there's a transponder
swap out
or some sort of a you know some
sort of
a spoof if I I wouldn't I don't
think it
wouldn't be anything that we'd
ever do
to be honest about it in this
regard
because we don't care about
these
scientists who cares about not
the
scientist but just to have
civilians
killed pin it on Iran and then
get
protests started I'm just
looking at as
an i as an opportunity I think
that's
minor compared to the realities
of
trying to get rid of these
scientists
clip from 2012 the family is
for five
Iranian nuclear scientists say
Israel
Great Britain and the u.s.
assassinated
their loved ones those families
are now
asking Iran's legal system to
pursue
their complaint through
international
courts Iran claims the attacks
were part
of a covert mission by Israel
and the
West to sabotage its nuclear
program the
US and Britain have denied any
involvement in the murders
Israel has
not commented on the matter
Steve I just
want to say that there is no
other media
property that I'm aware of that
on the
fly can talk about something
one host
who clearly should never be
able to
recall these things has the
longest
memory in history remembers it
and
production fires off the clip
within
seconds please appreciate that
as these
producers applause applause
effective
but the point is is that it
seems to me
if we're gonna go in that
direction it
would be Mossad that would
either want
he doing rid of these guys and
because
it does put a kind of a chink
in the
armor of the program um just
saying but
it did this University of
Alberta thing
it kind of has me like whoa
well our intelligence analysts
said this
you know so
it's so that hasn't come up in
the
conversation on CNN it would be
it would
be useful for at least one of
these
outfits I think they could use
that I
think they could throw that in
the mix
but I'm not so sure and by the
way the
corporate interests don't or
don't want
to hear about it right sorry
well we're waiting for the the
Revolution and I think the
signs are
being printed the flags are
being ironed
you know we'll get everything
over there
lickety-split we'll load
everybody up
but we did it with the Hong
Kong this
should be no problem at all to
just
redirect the team and send them
over to
Tehran or any other handy place
where we
can get some cameras in and
it'll be
good to go
yeah we'll see well just look
at the
headlines let's let's do a test
I will
go to the the news.google.com
which
doesn't even autocomplete on my
computer
since I don't use Google
[Music]
top of the list boom thousands
of
Iranian protesters hit streets
condemning leaders over downed
plane I
didn't search for Iran or
anything this
is I just went to Google News
and that
is the top headline
the ones below for Fuhrer in
Iran and
abroad Iran faces growing
criticism at
home
[Music]
that's the main one so CNN is
all over
it they
they're pushing the you're
pushing what
they're told to push well of
course and
that's the thousands of
protesters we
need more but that's a good
start
all right and just to show you
that we
have our eye on the ball while
all of
this was taking place while we
were all
looking at Iran Israel turned
on their
pipeline and liquid a gas is
now flowing
from the Leviathan fields
actually that
I think the Tamara tamarind
fields which
is part of that but right next
door off
the coast now flowing into
Israel and
they will become a energy
producer for
the first time in their history
and I'm
sure Bill Clinton is very happy
because
this is Nobel Energy
what's interesting actually did
I wonder
if our producer is still
invested in
noble energy
remember he was he was he
started
investing it oh haha well it
looks like
it went up to 22 last time I
looked it
was $8 I should've bought what
do I know
I'm a dope I never pay any
attention to
this stuff yeah so so
everything's good
no one pay attention to what's
happening
over there and they have their
deals
with Greece and Cyprus and
they're going
to be selling that to to Europe
so it
all ratchets up and hopefully
we get the
hell out of the way and with
that I'd
like to thank you for your
courage and
say in the morning to you the
man who
literally put the C in the
chink in the
armor any morning to you mr.
havitol
said in the morning all ships

air

Dames

morning
to you all hanging out there
trolling
away at No Agenda stream calm
let me see
how many trolls we got on a day
like
this this is to Sunday people

musician
explained probably why I didn't
like it
peer to peer I'm sorry peer to
peer I
said it wrong he had he says
rush was a
probably one of the greatest
progressive
rock bands has a very specific
style of
rock and roll that does not
appeal to
everybody no it never appealed

[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
I have a stinkbug update Oh
stink but we
do need do we need a jingle for
the
stink bug probably do and one
of these
is missing because I'm gonna
keep these
updates going because I think
this is
maybe something up bounties
think but
before you start we had
research pest
control they come by quarterly
here to
to spray and check and make
sure cuz you
know we live in Texas and I
asked the
guy about stink marmorated
stink bugs he
says no very very few would you
see in
Texas he says but if you see
one and it
has an orange rim on its back
this is
immediately back away and call a
professional
those can apparently kill you
yes the stinkbug that has an
orange rim
on its shell are apparently
called the
deadly bug the deadly he didn't
give me
any an orange rim bug so we
just call it
the Trump bug yeah apparently
yeah I
didn't know you were that guy
was just
putting you on no no I don't
think so
well you go ahead with your
update and I
will look it up it's terrible
all right
well anyway this past Sunday
this comes
in from one of our regular
producers
Glenn Edward there's a past
there was
Saturday morning I spied
unfortunately I
don't know remember where he's
from so
this is kind of we should've
doesn't put
it in here I spotted him are
related
Marty put marmalade 'add that
would be
the orange one yes by perched
on my
bathroom sink faucet possibly
resting
after getting a drink I keep
the house
pretty dry but never lower than
33
percent humidity details we
don't need
this is the first thing but
I've seen in
a few years that managed to get
into the
house so I assume with this rare
appearance and with your last
show's
report their numbers have
jumped this
one must have been near the
edge of the
back porch and he could goes on
about
that I grabbed him by the legs
with
tweezers and escorted it
outside where
it came from it did not like
that I
would suggest using an empty
pill bottle
in the future to trap them
inside I just
have to work out a slight a
sliding flap
I don't understand why nobody
makes bug
removing tools for the saint's
for the
home they're cheap enough to
sell to
dollar stores I'm frequently
trapped
some crawling things off the
wall to
take outside rather than
smashing it
into the paint job the stink bug
presents a unique problems they
will
stink if you squish them and
they take
flight when provoked enough so
it's a
kind of a bee-like but they're
slow
apparently they're quite slight
they're
slow enough to capture when
they're just
crawling you can't see them
against the
most woodwork or anything else
that's
dark but they show up against
anything
else they perch on and they
could be
inside your home for days
before you
spot them when they
do fly page to there about the
large
loudest bug I've ever heard
it's it's
must be how their wings whip
the air
they don't bite or sting just
annoy cats
will probably play with them
but nothing
wants to eat them ok so there
you go I
have an updates the orange
rimmed stink
bug is actually known as a
kissing bug
currently found so far in
Tennessee and
Georgia it is not a it is not
the stink
bug looks very similar to it it
does
have orange rim and you do not
want to
touch these or try and catch
them
because this has chagas
disease-- ch
agas and can be fatal if left
untreated
they feed on the blood of
mammals
including humans and dogs so
it's a form
of a tick yeah only it looks
like a
stink bug
sticks yeah you need more
chickens is
the country was filled with
chickens we
wouldn't have any of these
problems yeah
when you go to Slovenia I
should say the
whole country is filled with
chickens
they're all over the place
unfortunately
have a lot of raccoons and other
critters here that would like
to eat
these chickens but most
chickens if you
have a roosting place you can
they'll go
back into their roost and you
can close
it up for the night
amidst all of the possible
regime change
orange bars man bad we have
news from
Venezuela and
I was I got i got this from a
podcast
believe it or not the
podcasters name is
Anja param Pele param pill I
believe she
may be from Venezuela
apparently one guy
doze presidency is over he's
been
replaced and no one heard about
it and
the report is fantastic that is
Whelan
opposition leader Juan Guido's
term as
president of the country's
National
Assembly it came to an end on
Sunday
January 5th
Cueto had hoped to extend his
reign
beyond the legally mandated
year long
term limit however after it
became clear
that he did not have enough
votes to win
the rookie politician actually
attempted
to jump the fence surrounding
Venezuela's legislature in
order to make
it appear as though the
government had
prevented him from entering
gwido could
have entered the building to
the front
door the video of him trying to
jump
over the fence you know the
basic it
looks like Obama in a blue suit
trying
to jump over the fence but he
could have
just gone in the front door but
that
would have been the right
visual you see
one opposition lawmaker told
reporters
most were able to enter without
incident
yet Guido repeatedly attempted
to enter
the building alongside
lawmakers who had
been banned from the National
Assembly
over their alleged involvement
in
criminal activity Louis fava
who was
elected as the new president of
the
National Assembly crams Widow
staged the
incident because he did not
have enough
votes to win us-backed
Venezuelan ku
officials such as Guido's a
so-called
ambassador to Washington Carlos
Vecchio
shared video of the day's events
cleaning it depicted a valiant
Guido
overcoming government
repression u.s.
acting Under Secretary of State
for
Western Hemisphere affairs
Michael Kovak
tweeted shortly after the melee
claiming
quote wonk we know remains
Venezuela the
interim president under its
constitution
this morning's phony National
Assembly
session
the legal quorum there was no
vote yet
at least 140 out of Venezuela's
167
legislators were present at the
meeting
well above the 50% required for
a legal
quorum eighty one of them voted
to
install para a legislator from
the
us-backed primero justicia
party as
president of the National
Assembly
officially putting white OHS
rule to an
end
still Guido held his own
swearing-in
ceremony at the offices of
ossie now an
opposition owned newspaper in
order to
keep up appearances
considering the US has cited
his control
of Venezuela's National
Assembly as the
legal justification for its
recognition
of Guido as president of the
entire
country these developments are
perhaps
the most fatal blow doubt to
the Trump
administration school policy to
date
yeah fail and then it's so bad
that the
guys got to pretend to look
like oh I'm
a hero I'm I'm standing up
against the
oppressor as I'm jumping over
the fence
and they just voted in a
different guy
and then he said no no that's
not fair
and he went back to it to his
own casa
and did his own swearing-in
ceremony no
I'm still the guy this is sad I
mean
really comedic did Pompeo just
abandon
the guy I mean did Bolton
abandon the
guy shut it what to get in Cuddy
probably was a Bolton guy I
know but
what is this pathetic trying
this is
real a new guy the new guys is
an
American pack he's also a party
yes
clearly we all right we got to
get this
guy in cuz that old guy I mean
I guess
the Obama look is not working
anymore
have we seen the new guy do we
know what
the new guy looks like what's
his name
Rio she mentioned it through
UMUC
Venezuela new Presidente they
get to put
the eat the end of Presidente
um doesn't
even say
it's not even on its
even showing up
new that is it but what's your
search
criteria new president well
that would
be yet new president Venezuela
yeah I
tried that let me see maybe the
I'll
have to go to the Google News
again see
if they've got anything listen
to the
headlines this is interesting
Washington
Post grideau opposition
lawmakers defy
security forces burst into
Venezuela's
National Assembly we just heard
a woman
who's there is it that didn't
happen
Los Angeles Times Venezuela
opposition
leader Juan Guido takes new
oath amid
chaos Wow they won't even go
with the
new guy
that's crazy weather now eat
this is
duel them to me we're
witnessing dueling
intelligence agencies yes and
my guess
is the one that's causing the
trouble
and all the contradictions and
I don't
know who's pushing whose
buttons in
these newspapers but obviously
they're
hooked up to somebody is that
is that
little State Department Intel
agency
that little mysterious one
that's always
getting in the way and causing
trouble
yes because I'm reading here
that
Elliott Abrams the US
representative for
Venezuela now we know Elliott
Abrams
he's DISA he's a real bad actor
yeah he
welcomed the re-election of
guido
Abram said US officials remain
undaunted
and will continue to put
economic
pressure on the Maduro
government
through additional sanctions
and in this
whole report and I'm reading
The Wall
Street Journal and Los Angeles
Times
there's not a mention of the
guy who was
sworn in now we're not looking
at the
even the Venezuelan
presidential crisis
on Wikipedia which is kept up
today has
not gotten mentioned so this is
really a
this is just unbelievable I
mean our
news media is just totally
corrupt it's
not worth it's not worth it
it's just so
Wow
well thank God for anja prompt
you thank
his Russian okay whatevs
Russians and Russians are
running a game
anyway I thought that was
information is
terribly even dude even Amy
hasn't
gotten anything good
they're not trying
they're not trying they just
aren't
trying well we know the Chinese
the
Russians and us all want that
oil field
yes possibly the biggest in the
Western
Hemisphere
yes so we got three big
superpowers
we're the closest to it we
should have
it by default a man should be
actually
that was it was an interesting
just
going back to Iran for a second
the
Iraqi Prime Minister claimed
the Trump
threatened false flag attacks on
protesters if he didn't accept
the oil
deals remember Trump said we
got the oil
we got the oil and that we were
demanding fifty percent of the
oil yeah
just as all unverified oh it's
just a
data point I'm just throwing it
in there
just what it is
alright well let's go to the
upcoming
debate rundown this is debate
rundown
just for Tuesday ah very good
and this
will be on it's gonna be on CNN
who was
hosting at this time I believe
so News
six presidential candidates
Elizabeth
Warren Bernie Sanders Pete
Buddha Jay
Jay Amy Klobuchar Joe Biden and
Tom
Steyer will take to the stage
for the
final democratic debate before
the Iowa
caucus it will happen in Des
Moines next
Tuesday
all the candidates on stage
will be
white after New Jersey senator
Cory
Booker and entrepreneur Andrew
yang did
not qualify for the debate
billionaire
Tom Styer qualified after
pouring more
than 115 million dollars of his
own
money into his campaign
billionaire
former New York City Mayor
Michael
Bloomberg did not qualify for
the debate
despite spending nearly a
hundred
seventy million dollars of his
own money
on ads I picked up a report
from Rachel
that I wanted to share we don't
play
much Rachel Maddow on this show
because
well and I did cut out almost
every
pause and every eye roll and
neck
stretch and all the things she
does just
to chop it down to under two
minutes but
this was hilarious in context
of her
hating all Republicans her
hating
everything that is not a
Democrat Party
is being MSNBC and now we have
these two
billionaires Tom Steyer and
Michael
Bloomberg who are messing it
all up last
night Tom Steyer officially
qualified
for the next Democratic
candidates
debate which will be in Iowa
next week
the deadline to qualifies today
and he
has made it in the days leading
up to
today's deadline it really
didn't seem
like Tom Steyer was going to
make it
onto that debate stage she was
in low
single digits and most national
and
statewide polls he needed
better numbers
and at least two polls but then
last
night last minute almost out of
nowhere
he came in really close to the
top of of
the polls in in to early
state's polling
third tied with Elizabeth
Warren for
third in Nevada I guess we
should just
point out just to reiterate
that the
election debate committee which
used to
be the women
voters who quit in disgust have
determined that for the primary
and I
think it's uh it's more DN C
that you
have to have certain
qualifications to
even appear on the debate stage
and
you're seeing the results where
apparently you couldn't pop
ahead real
easy a whopping twelve percent
double
digits right 12 percent tied
for third
and litoris second place in
South
Carolina Joe Biden's way out of
front
right but look who's right Tom
Steyer 15
percent in South Carolina
really a
surprise for politics geeks
right for
those of us who pore over each
new poll
do you think that she sits
there in her
office and is poring over each
new poll
I need to get to the bottom of
these
stats and information and it's
yes isn't
it just like simple question
and he's
just polling I mean don't don't
just
look at the results is there
stuff to
pour over for politics geeks
right for
those of us who pour over each
tuple a
surprise but if you are a TV
watcher in
the great state of South
Carolina or the
great state of Nevada it was
probably
less surprising to you because
check
this out along with the fresh
numbers we
got today on total ad spending
for all
the candidates we also got a
breakdown
of what the candidates are
spending by
state and it makes the puzzle
kind of
easy to solve alright so far the
candidates combined have spent
17
million dollars on political
ads just in
the state of South Carolina okay
seventeen million in TV and
radio ads
South Carolina alone here's how
you
solve the puzzle of that
seventeen
million dollars spent in South
Carolina
fourteen million of it was
spent by Tom
Steyer that by the way is the I
so Tom
Steyer has spent more on ads in
South
Carolina then Pete Budaj edge
or Bernie
Sanders has spent on ads
nationwide for
their entire campaign same
thing in
Nevada the other state that
helped
deliver Tom Styer a surprise
spot on the
debate stage so far there have
been
eleven point six million
dollars in
total spent on political ads in
Nevada
by everybody of that eleven
point six
million dollars total spent on
Nevada
ads ten point four million of
that spent
by Tom Styer is Nevada only ad
spending
is more than all of the abs
spending by
Biden Warren and Klobuchar
combined gosh
can you see that shoes yes as
it turns
out she's so shots a revelation
to her
it turns out that douchebag
billionaires
can buy your election to we
this is how
we vote in America the same way
we buy
our washing powder you see a
lot of ads
on TV and go okay unless but I
think ice
tire tides diretide sounds the
same
whatever it this must be
driving people
insane
I mean yes especially since
we're
dealing with the billionaire
class which
is the Democrat Party hello
here's the
iced over end of show I was
considering
[Laughter]
perfect I think as I am i yeah
okay I I
sewed it myself before the show
knowing
you'd like it that much so now
we have a
situation with all these guys
these rich
guys running and there's a and
they're
in this coincidentally the
Netflix
special the great hack has
arrived and
it did it tells the story of
Cambridge
analytics and how Trump won let
me stop
you two things one I think it's
been out
for a couple weeks - yeah it's
Cambridge
analytic
you're right it's been out for
a couple
weeks and it's Cambridge
analytical got
it now so they had the
producers and the
co directors and then some
other woman
her name is Brittany Kaiser
who's a
whistle blower that worked for
Cambridge
and they had him on the in a me
show and
there were some revelations in
there
that I thought may would be
worth
discussing because they do
apply to -
you know - what's going on with
these
elections sorry I thought you
there was
a very clear pause and lead-up
and I was
getting my glasses I would say
the one
you want to play for just three
clips
there's the Brittany cat Kaiser
Cambridge there's the Brittany
on
crooked Hillary and there's the
complaining co-director okay
which is
it's reeks of said okay you're
gonna
play that probably you probably
were
playing the right clip was just
let's
play Brittany Kaiser on
Cambridge there
were groups ecologists that
we're
looking into how they could
understand
that data and convert that into
messaging that was just for you
I need
to remind everybody that the
Trump
campaign put together over a
million
different advertisements that
were put
out a million different
advertisements
with tens of thousands of
different
campaigns some of these
messages were
for just you were 450 people a
hundred
people obviously certain groups
are
thousands tens of thousands or
millions
but some of them were targeted
very much
directly at the individual to
know
exactly what you're going to
click on
and exactly what you care about
that is
so unfair this woman who wrote
the book
she wrote the book targeted and
she's
moaning and groaning and she
was working
for Cambridgeshire she was
aghast by
everything and but she was
apparently so
predisposed to being a ghast by
everything that they would
wanted there
was an event where they invited
Anne
Coulter mmm to talk to him about
something rather and instead of
sticking
around which I would do even if
I was a
Democrat no no she felt she had
the need
to bug out so she didn't have
to hear
whatever evil words and might
might plan
to her brain I and I can't I'm
looking
at being at i/o I'm trying to
see if I
put it in show nose there was
someone
did an analysis and I think was
a
facebook person maybe Andy and
now I'm
just paraphrasing I'll have to
find it
was saying that in actuality
Cambridge
analytic I was really shit is
really not
good at what they do have not
done
anything spectacular beyond
what any
other basic advertising
targeting does
but it still was the I think
this
article said you know it was
Brad Pascal
who figured out what the
messages should
be but it wasn't you know as
highly
targeted and sophisticated or
even as
good as people make Cambridge
analytic
out to be not high kindness but
I
believe it not gonna argue that
point I
think I think this is going on
constantly with everybody
that's in the
business yeah of doing this
sort of
analysis and Cambridge
analytical just
for some reason I think had
something to
do it brexit to be honest about
it yeah
got God singled out I saw I
agree with
this is bullcrap but let's
listen to
some of the stuff they did do
that was
funny this is Brittany again on
the
crooked Hillary campaign this is
fascinating
you talk about the crooked
Hillary
campaign and how it developed
absolutely
so this started as a super PAC
that was
built for Ted Cruz keep the
promise one
which was run by Kellyanne
Conway and
funded by the Mercer's that was
then :
she's she worked at Cambridge
analytical
yes and so Brittany she's
talking like a
pundit I mean she's not talking
like
someone who's be she's on a
book tour
and so she's oh okay I guess
run by
Kelli Ann Conway and funded by
the
Mercer's that was then
converted to
becoming a super PAC for Donald
Trump
they tried to register with the
Federal
Election Commission the name
defeat
crooked Hillary and FEC luckily
did not
allow them to do that so it was
called
make America number one this
super PAC
was headed by David bossy
someone that
you might remember from
Citizens United
basically dark money into our
politics
and allow no never happen
haven't seen
it
know it's racist that dark
money oh this
is bullshit but I like it
brought dark
money into our politics and
allowed this
was on Democracy Now yeah did
Amy jump
in and say well you know
obviously dark
money has been in our politics
for a
long time we I mean from day
one pretty
money amounts of money to be
funneled
into these types of vehicle
this is a
total talking point this woman
so that
we don't know where all of the
money is
coming from from these types of
manipulative communications he
was in
charge of this campaign I'm
sorry this
is great manipulative
communications
that's what you do that's all
communications are Oh marketing
is
manipulation the money is
coming from
for these types of manipulative
communications and he was in
charge of
this campaign now I'm that two
day long
debrief that I talked about and
if you
want to know more you can read
about it
in my
book I they told us why and
explain
where you were and who was in
the room
so I was in New York in our
board room
for Cambridge analytic his
office on
Fifth Avenue and all of our
offices from
around the world had called in
to
videocast and everybody from
the super
PAC and the Trump campaign took
us
through all of their tactics and
strategies and implementation
and what
they had done now when we got
to this
defeat crooked Hillary super
PAC they
explained to us what they had
done which
was to run experiments on
psychographic
groups to figure out what was
working
and what wasn't
unfortunately what they found
out was
the only very successful tactic
was
sending fear-based
scare mongering messaging to
people that
were identified as being
neurotic and it
was so successful in their first
experiments but they spent the
rest of
the money from the super PAC
over the
rest of the campaign only on
negative
messaging oh no - neurotics
negative
advertising targeting neuron
I'd say
it's a crime almost that is
it's evil
labrador neurotic and then you
send
fear-mongering messages whoa I
mean like
clear and present danger the
president
is a clear and present danger
needs to
be impeached immediately
because who
knows what he could do you mean
like
that is that is that we talking
about
just bend over here it comes
again for
you sir well-deserved
thank you now we have a couple
of others
in that same group now we have
they do
this guy Kareem Amir ah and he
talks
this is the one let's do the
let's start
with this one this is him is the
complaining the clip is
complaining
co-director p2 people have come
forward
from Cambridge analytic oh why
is that
both of the wait stop stop stop
stop so
that's the desta complaint
that's the
other one this is the that
would be the
last clip the clip before that
is a
little lengthy but it's it's
more
fascinating than anything so
far and
this under that you have to
look it up
under l al karima a mirror
all right and he talks about
how they
did some experiments in
Trinidad ah no
the pain bridge analytical used
brown
people to do conduct evil
experiments
yes data with data and they and
they
psychologically manipulated
them I can't
believe this is going on what is
happening to the world
well let's listen to this is a
very
funny story I asked cream
Armour to talk
about what Cambridge analytical
effort
to suppress the vote in
Trinidad and
Tobago did it was important for
us to
show in the film the
expansiveness of
Cambridge's work this went
beyond the
borders of the United States
and even
beyond the borders of the EU
and the UK
because what we find is that
you know
Cambridge they use the the in
pursuing
this global influence industry
that they
were very much a part of they
use
different countries as petri
dishes to
learn and get to know how about
different tactics and from
improving
those tactics they can then
sell them
for a higher cost higher margin
in
Western democracies where the
election
budgets are you know and they
you have
to have to remember I think it's
important to predicate that the
election
business has become
multibillion-dollar
global business right so just
remember
that while we are upset with
companies
at Cambridge we allowed for the
commoditization of our
democratic
process right so people are
exploiting
this now because it's become a
business
and we and and as purveyors of
this
can't really be as upset as we
want to
be when we were justified
though so I
want to preface it with that
now that
being said what's happened as a
result
is a comfort at Cambridge can
practice
tactics in a place like
Trinidad that's
very unregulated in terms of
what they
can and can to learn from that
know-how
and then you know use it parlay
it into
activities United States but
they did in
Trinidad and why it was
important for us
to short in the film is they led
something called the doso
campaign where
they admit making it cool and
popular
among youth to get out and not
vote and
they made the Indian population
in the
black and the black legislation
and
there's a lot of historic
tension
between those two and a lot of
generational differences as
well between
those two and the do so campaign
targeted that was was done in a
way to
you know by looking at the data
and
looking at the predictive
analysis of
which group would vote or not
vote get
enough people to dissuade them
from
voting
so that they could flip the
election
targeted at targeted at at the
youth and
so this is really when you war
so
actually do so yes exactly and
that it
became cool not to vote exactly
and then
you look at the level of
calculation
behind this and it's quite
frightening
do these people ever see an
advertisement for anything
anywhere in
their lives now this guy that
was
yakking away there was one of
the
co-directors that guys was a
blowhard
and every time a me would ask
anybody
else anything he jump in before
they
could start talking and he
liked to hear
himself self talk but the other
woman
and this is what kind of got my
attention was this particular
clip which
is the last clip and this is
the this is
the other co-director woman and
she
tells the story that is slightly
reminiscent this is the
complaining
co-director P two people have
come
forward from Cambridge
analytical why is
that both of the people that
have come
forward Brittany and Chris and
also what
Carol's writing have been
targeted
personally and it's been a very
very
difficult story to tell even
with us
when we released the film in
January
every single time we have
entered into
the country we have been
stopped for
four to six hours of
questioning at the
border that stop by stop by
yeah on the
border of the US and JFK
Airport where
you're taken into the back ask
for all
of your social media handles
question
for four to six hours every
single time
we enter the country since when
since we
release the film so since
Sundance since
January we've every time we've
come back
into the US and on what grounds
are they
saying they're stopping it no
explanation yeah
it sounds a lot like me know
this sounds
like the
cock-and-bull story we got from
Laura
Poitras if you recall which yes
he was
doing something and there was
always
this the same story was never
the guys
telling this story it's always
a woman
and they keep talking about
getting
pulled over not not like you're
going
back but I'm talking about
within the
recent memory the woman who is a
co-director producer or
whatever's gets
pulled over yeah coming this
you can't
say it's TSA she's kind of keys
it would
be customs Border Patrol not to
you well
somebody pulls them out and
then gives
them a four-hour conversation
mm-hm and
it seems to me that this is
canned this
the same Poitras it had almost
identical
story now is it possible
they're getting
pulled over but she but this
was since
January so let's take another
look at
this and Poitras I think had
the same
issues how many times since
January last
year I guess
are they in and out and in and
out and
in and out of the country and
why yeah
the movies out you're on the
down the
road what she's doing is
insinuating
that orange man bad has put his
SS heist
police eye on the case and is
making
sure that she's harassed every
single
time because you'll get her
will get her
and get her you whistleblower
and you
can't pretend oolitic a
whistleblower
will get you it will get ya
yeah I don't
believe it that may be true I
don't know
but it might be true but I
don't believe
that it's got any good Trump or
said
something else is causing it
and we'll
the case with you is a good
example
which is turned out to be a
reasonably
good
was there's a guy with the same
name as
you that lived somewhere in the
northern
states Oklahoma I thought it
was Montana
no I think it was Oklahoma and
he was
also in aviation
yeah yeah that happened for a
couple
years yeah we thought was first
couple
years of the show you would
give us a
rundown in fact you even
recorded one of
the episodes one of the moments
were the
guys grilling yeah yeah it was
quite
good yes and I'm sure at the
time I said
it's obvious it's obvious the
Obama
administration wants to stifle
mate
they're harassing me John well
all of
this obviously leads to you
properly
they won't know because it's
your data
you need to be responsible for
it so
don't make as much I've decided
that's
my new thing if you want to be
safe you
want your data to stay safe
it's your
data in the first place don't
make so
much of it which is why I have
the fine
Alcatel go flip three flip
phone which
is functioning just nicely for
me for
what I need to do all the other
work is
done still on those Alcatel
contacted
you and said you want another
one of
these phones or thanks for the
plug no
in fact I bought I bought
another one
for my stepdaughter
she's ot she's way out she
liked that
she liked your phone oh my god
now this
is Ellen this is not Elise is
Ellen so
this is she actually has recited
Kosinski to me and I take
credit for it
believe me now so I bought a
second one
it's only it's 70 bucks you
know it's a
is very effective battery lasts
for a
long time and by the way I'm not
creating a lot of data I run
you know my
Linux installed still running
Lubuntu
which is lightweight it does
exactly
what I want and nothing more and
actually that popped in my head
today
back when we had daus we just
had
command line daus she had
WordPerfect
and stuff worked it was fast it
wasn't
visual of course but it would
in yeah
you could you could get stuff
done
pretty quickly and you you
worked a lot
more with daus than I ever did
but it
was very effective you create
bat batch
files you know you could create
little
programs that did things and
then we got
visual with Windows 95 and I
believe
since then all these you got
win it
Windows well you're to three
point I'm
sorry I'm sorry all right three
point
one you're right I remember
running nte
3.1 that was the hot cheeto ass
man if
you want to be cool but what's
happened
is we have every application
that you
have on your computer then the
operating
system itself is continuously
doing crap
in the background if it's not
looking
pinging for updates and do I
need to
notify its do it and it's just
sucking
up all this computing power
that's why
you have to have faster and
faster
computers because everybody you
know the
OS if Windows it's updating in
the
background it's sharing part of
it with
other things on your network
it's
sending stuff back to Microsoft
information you know it's it's
almost
like the screen savers back in
the day a
screen saver would kick in and
it would
him your computer wasn't doing
anything
but if it was like a rendering
it would
use up computer resources this
is
happening all the time inside
your
computer it's always doing
stuff it's
reindex ting it's making your
life
easier but it's not really it's
just
slowing down the machine anyway
make
less make less data and don't
give it
away to people like 23andme you
paid for
the privilege and now 23andme
sold the
rights to a drug it developed
thanks to
its genetic database and your
data and
you're not getting the cut of
it he
believed this people are so
stupid
government-funded Android phones
apparently that's the Obama
phone comes
with pre-installed and
unremovable
malware of course why wouldn't
we be
spying on you of course it does
they got a spy on those poor
people and
my favorite ring doorbell
confirms it
fired for employees for watching
customer videos we surprised no
but
instead of reporting on this
atrocity of
Silicon Valley spying on you no
way CBS
Austin they'll run a native ad
we
weren't getting the ring
notifications
little did Arturo Guerra know
those
notifications would show this
man Henry
Ludwig breaking into his home
Guerra was
on a cruise with his family for
Christmas and had spotty Wi-Fi
so he was
not able to access his video
while out
at sea he didn't look until a
day later
when his neighbor called him to
say they
see a car that did not belong
to them in
their driveway on the drive
back home
they looked at the video before
calling
police
they're seeing him kind of look
at the
front door initially and look
for like a
secret key he's obviously
looking in the
window seeing if anybody's home
trying
to get in the only thing you
see on the
ring towards the last clips is
he's
coming out of the front door
and he's
got some of my clothes on which
is sort
of interesting Ludwig was
caught on
camera over a three-hour
stretch in the
early morning hours the day
after
Christmas he broke a window of
garre's
garage and after taking some
personal
items also stole his
mother-in-law's car
obviously it just feels
incredibly
violating and everyone's kind
of nervous
and on edge and it had never
happened
you know it's a nice
neighborhood we're
at the long dead-end cul-de-sac
so we
never thought all right so I'm
just
gonna pause it here it's almost
done
because this is the setup this
is by the
way Cambridge analytical lady
this is
how manipulative things are
sometimes in
marketing is how it works
so we're gonna give you this
human
interest story we feel really
bad that
people aren't a cruise they
didn't get
the ring doorbell notification
because
they had spotty Wi-Fi which
means had
never taken a cruise again ever
but we
have to do something what can
we do to
help solve these problems in
our house
would be that kind of a target
it was pretty unusual but it's
frightening at first it's funny
now one
week left behind some of his own
belongings including his
driver's
license and is now behind bars
facing
home burglary and unauthorized
use of
vehicle charges Garrett got the
car back
but does not think he will get
back all
of the items Lodwick stole now
Garrett
says when he hears that
notification
from his ring app he will look
and see
what's at his door we've set up
more
ring cameras now just to kind
of have a
little bit of the overall front
of the
house and particularly at night
it's a
little now it's sort of the
chime is
alarming you know it just sort
of jolts
your system he's got that he's
got more
ring doorbell videos he's got
to play
the chime so I know what it
sounds like
this is so despicable well you
know
what's really what gets me is
that same
old bromide with a guy if
unless I
misheard it left his driver's
license
behind so they could find him
yeah yeah
sounds really believable we
hear this
story and a lot of these clips
where you
know that the two terrorists
and in
Paris at the Hebdo operation
you know
the guys lose his driver's
license on
the streets yeah you're right
yeah right
it's one driver's license these
driver's
license you left my driver's
license
someplace special I'm robbing
the place
although I don't rob places I
don't know
no idea no idea
anyway yes that was a native ad
I got
caught a couple of weird native
ads of
late that were convoluted but
they're
always native ads hmm I'm having
anything good no not on this
list
I got some new reports of more
complaining there's a this is
Australian
there's a bunch of I don't know
if the
guy's a Nazi or what he is but
whose
rally against immigrations
going on in
under these Australians were
meeting up
in bitching and moaning I got a
weird
clip somebody sent me this this
guy he's
on a bullhorn moaning and
groaning and
he's got a huge audience and it
looks
sounds like a fascist but it's
just did
they would use sounds a bit
like someone
could lay who would been from
Europe EU
possibly I mean that's the same
kind of
talk you they have over there
yeah this
is going on should be noted
mm-hmm don't
know what the make of it
personally yet
no if you don't have anything I
have a
bunch of things well then I'd
like I'd
like you to take us into one
more and
then I've got something that we
need to
deconstruct
it's a little longer okay I can
do I can
go on a flier right here and
give you my
early prediction for who's
gonna be the
vice presidential candidate if
Joe Biden
is chosen which I believe he
will be
because this is John John
Cooper a real
Democrat hack but a voice of
the of the
establishment was a Twitter guy
we
follow each other and he is
made the
claim that Biden's gonna win
for that he
has the reasons and bitin it
appears to
be the guy they're just gonna
pick
because he's on the list he's
on the
waiting list he's gonna get
picked who
is he gonna pick for
vice-president and
so I went through the list
trying to
find who the possibilities are
now they
hate I presume that my my pick
is not
yours otherwise yeah we've yeah
yours is
Stacey Abrams yes yeah I think
Stacey
Abrams is a plant intelligence
planner
sorry oh I thought you meant
like actual
vegetation she might be I look
at her
bio I have a dossier on her and
it's
just everything women you have
the
Abrams dossier I like it
Microsoft
OneNote
everything is just something
really you
know how does she get on
everything
she's she's she has very few
accomplishments but yet she's
picked for
everything she's on everything
she could
be I think that a lot of people
think
she is the number one of the
candidates
for VP I personally liked the
idea of it
and the Democrats have always
been
successful when they've used a
ticket
that is it has a broader range
from East
Coast to West Coast and she's
an East
Coast person even though she's
from
Georgia so she could say she's
from the
south and she could maybe bring
the
black vote but mine is not the
one
suffering from you know black
niall ISM I mean I mean
Buddha's jazz
you won't get any black votes
Warren
might not get any black votes
but I
think Biden who because he
worked for
Obama will get the black vote
so they
don't need a black candidate
hmm yeah
and Cory Booker I think also is
out
because he's from the same
region
geographical reason a region so
I'm
looking to the west coast okay
and who
under West Coasters are there's
a dark
horse uh and if you look at the
list of
picks you'll find her name
you've never
heard of her and I started
looking in
door she is quite the character
and she
matches a number of criteria as
a woman
so you get that little balance
now the
Democrats have to know that
they that
the woman as a vice-presidential
candidate has been unsuccessful
and
before but they're expecting
it's gonna
have to work one of these days
and it's
a five foot one very strange
person
named Louanne Grisham michelle
lujan-grisham she is the
governor a
governor so she has executive
experience
unlike Stacey Abrams she has
executive
experiences the governor of New
Mexico
and she is a real character she
I think
they have a clip of her at one
of her
ads she did an ad when she ran
she was a
congresswoman and then she ran
for
governor and got it easily
because she
kicks ass because she has
radical ideas
or how to do advertising she's
crawling
around here and there and she's
in this
case flying around town and
rollerblades
and this is the Gershom in the
rollerblade story that that
took place
in the local news coverage in
New Mexico
it's hard to ignore if you've
seen the
campaign out of the
rollerblading
congresswoman you probably have
an
opinion News 13s Kathryn
Mazzone asked
her campaign about it and New
Mexicans
what they think about it
Kathryn Jessica
it's one of three ads Michelle
Lujan
Grisham released this election
season
and reps say it's by far the
most unique
and that's the point they say
they want
the ad to stick in voters minds
and many
of the ones we spoke to say it
does
people say I'm always moving
politics aside plenty have
something to
say about michelle
lujan-grisham latest
campaign app that's different
for sure
like I especially ran for
Congress you
don't expect to see that it's
really
corny but I should appreciate
you diet
better than the negative stuff
the congresswoman received a
lot of
feedback online too most of it
positive
we felt like this would be
something
memorable
if pulled off Gilbert Gallegos
is
Grisham's spokesperson he says
he
doesn't know of many
politicians who
could pull off an dad like this
this is
a very fun and positive ad but
still
reflects her accomplishments
and in her
personality while they admit
it's
different she's out there being
active
and it's not just a stuffy soon
some are
left scratching their heads why
rollerblades yeah why do that
the
rollerblades were actually her
idea the
cop car ambulance and military
plane
raised others eyebrows I'm sure
chef
permission to do that right
turns out
Grisham was never on base for
this at
the guy ego says they were
actually on a
private runway nearby our
producers got
one shot at it and they she
took off on
the rollerblades and did it in
one take
with the plane taking off so it
wasn't
anything we planned or you know
knew
what's going to be coming
Gallego says
the police car and the
ambulance were
rented props volunteers
actually drove
them back to Jessica all right
Thank You
Katherine we contacted Grissom's
opponents in the congressional
race
Republican Richard preen but
did not
hear back hmm
now she is Latin X she's Latin
X she's
also a Native American whoops
she's in
the caucus for Bush she's in the
Congressional Hispanic Caucus
and she's
also in the Native American
caucus Wow
so she's got a lot going on
she's the
caucus is she's part of his
Hispanic
Native American and the caucus
for
women's issues so she's got
checks a lot
of boxes and if you read her
complete
bio as I have in the dossier
she is
pretty much the perfect
down-the-line
Democrat but she's got a lot of
spunk
boasting radical ideas for cam
painting and she's a fire she's
just a
hot she's hot in terms of her
you know
she's doesn't put up with
anything she's
a perfect candidate for VP and
I think
she could bring the Hispanic
vote in and
it would help Biden a lot and I
don't
think it's gonna it would be a
very
bitch the biggest plus he could
get for
a VP that would make things
kind of
interesting right so that's my
prediction the the problem with
your
prediction which I like I've
never heard
of her I think calling someone
with who
has spunk is probably high
'test I think
short people are the ones that
have
spunk you know you a little
twerp you
spunky that is definitely high
'test
gosh I mean the problem is I'm
still
waiting for a Hillary to be the
nominee
and now you've switched to Joe
Biden you
know kind of underhandedly
well I'm not just I still have
not
pulled my Hillary prediction
hmm but I'm
saying if Joe Biden yeah and
I'd made it
clear that if his Joe Biden is
the
candidate which I believe
Hillary
doesn't jump because of Cooper
saying he
will be I believe he is going
to be and
he's gonna have to pick
somebody and
he's gonna and I don't think
he's gonna
pick any of his any of his
competitors
so anybody who saw up onstage
with him
he I mean nobody that I know of
has ever
done that they didn't they
never pick a
guy that they debated against
right
Jesus wasn't debating against
Trump no
no she's also a tri-delt
yeah yes she's a tri-delt you
caught
that yes Delta Delta Delta I
don't know
if that's good good good but
okay well
it's reasonable although I
still I I
what I see is the black vote is
in play
and it's not guess Joe is a
safe choice
but if Joe doesn't win which I
really
think I am not so sure he's
gonna make
it like physically gonna make it
mentally gonna make it to the
I'm not
being a dick okay
there's the possibility of him
dropping
dead on the campaign trail that
would be
screw up the election yeah
that's a day
wrecker but my point is keep
him alive
they know how to do that no
matter who
becomes VP the assumption is
that person
will become president because
Joe will
never make it through four
years yes and
having someone who's a governor
and with
executive experience as opposed
to
somebody who never got to that
including
Stacey Abrams is a plus you want
somebody with executive
experience you
don't just want some some
legislative
type person they don't know how
to run
anything they just know how to
vote for
bills she looked she looks the
business
though she looks like she could
kick
your ass and get something done
she does
look like that yeah she does
but I also
think Klobuchar has a bit of
that look I
like and she's still in the
race yes
Bobo chart has no executive
experience
what so
ever and she her salad with her
comb
that is just it will never
leave my
memory I like that I like that
I like
that I like what she's also a
mean-spirited person supposedly
and I
don't like Klobuchar at all and
I I
can't imagine a bite in clover
charm
give me even clue but you're on
a bumper
sticker it doesn't work just
Grisham's a
good name it's a good American
sounding
name even though she's you know
bitch
apparently goes back to
pre-columbian
times but bitin Grissom is a
good look I
think bite and Abrams is a good
sound
too but I don't think that's
gonna
happen
Biden Booker yeah not so much
that you
guys think it a bumper sticker
this
you're listening to a podcast
ladies and
gentlemen podcasting is
apparently hot
hot hot and of course we're
still
looking for our exit which is
apparently
not gonna happen there's no one
has any
good ideas that we can fulfill
but
Goldman Sachs did a report I'm
sorry not
Goldman Sachs Morgan Stanley
did a
report on podcast podcasting
and podcast
monetization and I figured we
would have
a listen to this as the Morgan
Stanley
guide dropped by on CNBC this is
obviously financiai famous
podcaster
right yes
and obviously they didn't
interview me
for their reporter view anybody
that
seems but the guy must he
doesn't need
the interview because he knows
the
business because he's been in
the
business he knows the band and
I and I
will say as an aside killin
Knowlton did
reach out to me and did
interview me for
a report they are doing for
their
clients Spotify and I thought
that would
be fun to do then I appreciate
it and by
the way it wasn't the American
Hill &
Knowlton no of course not
it was the Swedish hill in
Knowlton and
they're doing a report for
their client
who was in Sweden and they and
they
actually called me as a queen
questions and that that's I
mean since
you mentioned could have as
quick as
site because I'm gonna forget
to mention
this is a can I know any clips
on it but
apparently in Sweden Swedish
airlines
are complaining because now
there's a
thing called flight miss
Fletcher
flight shaming Thank You Greta
yep yeah
there you can be shamed
we went on an airplane anyway
yeah now
take the boat to Los Angeles
you and
roger McGuinn will so CNBC gets
this
jamoke on and maybe I should
just
preface that in 2005 I built a
podcast
network of companies of shows
and we had
the model that pretty much
everybody
else has now typical Adam Curry
fashion
ten years too early almost
fifteen years
too early no exit like the
gimlets of
the world etc but the question
is
where's the money
is this a bubble and it is my
belief
that you cannot monetize the
network and
when I say that in this case
specifically a podcast network
cannot be
monetized the main reason being
the dave
winer and i set this up on an
open
format open standard RSS nobody
owns it
the first thing we did first
thing I did
in particular was incentivize
and
support and through the daily
source
code work with engineers and
software
developers around the world to
build
what we now call pod catchers
or podcast
apps Apple has the most used one
personally I think that a lot
of people
like overcast but there's many
other
apps because of the open nature
no one
has been able to own podcasting
you want
to talk about video YouTube
owns it a
number of reasons for that but
they also
had the flash technology very
early on
and owned that
podcasting is not owned by
anybody Apple
does not own podcasting I don't
see any
indication they want to own it
but they
do want people to use their
devices and
software while enjoying it
Spotify is the one with a
distant second
Pandora who are trying to
become all
things podcasting so we'll
listen to
this report we'll probably stop
it to
discuss a few things because of
course
as you'd expect it's utterly
stupid what
is behind the big boost that
podcasts
are getting not just Apple
versus
Spotify but anywhere you get
your
podcast which is what they say
on the
pad so right off the bat this
woman
doesn't she thinks that Apple
owns
podcasting that Apple has
podcast where
Spotify you actually have to
give them
permission to stream your
podcast on
their app podcast yeah well
thanks for
having me confess it yeah look
the audio
market is highly competitive
because
it's growing consumers are
engaging more
and more and we think 2019 we
saw about
a hundred million users in the
United
States streaming the almost 50
percent
of smartphone users are now in
subscription streaming so it's
a big
market and there's a lot of
focus on it
one way to differentiate your
product is
by investing in podcasts and so
there's
been a explosion of podcasts
available
to consumers and there's bit of
a lot of
investment by Apple Spotify
Amazon and
others to try to bring more
podcasts to
the consumer and for Spotify
okay let's
stop for a second I don't know
what this
guy is talking about about
investment I
mean yes Apple has a team and
well
that's an investment he's
making a lot
of assumptions here and it's
not because
they want to diversify Spotify
has a big
problem their costs follow
their usage
when you listen to one song one
stream
there's a cost associated with
that to
them that they have to pay to
the
publisher record company etc
the PR oh
whatever their deal is
so they're looking for anything
anything
they can own that doesn't have
a per
play usage fee that's the
reason Morgan
Stanley yeah this is really
important
this
where they compete apples a
massive
company does a lot of things
incredibly
well for Spotify it's all about
audio
and so they've made podcasts
incredibly
important to their strategy
listening
has reportedly ticked up to
four point
four hours weekly Apple says it
has
800,000 podcasts how do you
differentiate your service to
advertisers oh right away
there's no
other way to do it we got to do
ads yeah
look I mean I think one of the
challenges in audio whether
it's music
or podcasts is generally
content is not
exclusive you mentioned the
Netflix
Apple Competition you know
there you
have exclusive programming
that's not as
easy in the audio space so it's
really
about discovery you just
mentioned how
many podcasts there are how do
people
like you and I figure out what
to listen
to see do you think they really
did they
really did some research on
this cuz
this is the same lie that I
heard 15
years ago it's about discovery
man cuz
no one can discover it when you
discover
it it's bullcrap you'll have no
trouble
finding things they hear about
it from
their friends it's not the
front page of
Apple that matters it's not
whatever
podcast portal of Google or
Amazon
people hear about it from their
friends
it's how it's always gone by
the way
it's how it works with music to
you
people have no power over
promoting this
stuff it's really senseless and
so
curation and discovery and the
user
interface that's really where
the
differentiation is increasingly
showing
up and again I think our survey
suggests
that for the first time Spotify
has
moved past Apple as the most
popular
platform for podcast
consumption and
podcast Premium users actually
consume
over 5 hours a week of podcasts
so
you're seeing their consumer
base
actually even more engaged last
hour we
were just talking about one
trillion
music strains last year which
surely is
a record if streaming music is
seeing a
boost and podcasts are seeing
this big
boost who's losing out will
probably
sleep would you welcome
generally
speaking there look there's
probably
some cannibalization of music
consumption because of the rise
of
podcasts but the big challenge
here
contests are smartphone adoption
unlimited data plans this is a
global
phenomenon increasingly smart
speakers
we think almost a third of us
homes now
have smart speakers and
eventually
connected cars so we're more
connected
than ever which allows for more
content
consumption and that's growing
the pie
overall so so good
explain to me briefly Ben if
you could
the the the money machine here
I stopped
just on that the money machine
what do
you think John what do you
think what do
you think the extrapolation
here's of
the money machine the B
Carbonite the
the the money machine here I
get how the
podcast producer makes money as
she or
he or they sell advertising
that is
either dropped into the podcast
or
bumpers it on either end but
how does
Spotify and Apple make money
from this
yeah it's a very good question
and one
that investors are highly
focused on and
I think the answer is today
they're not
in fact while podcasts are not
new
monetization of podcasts really
is just
beginning and it's an
advertised how
long have we heard this how
long have we
heard it's just beginning the
monetization of podcasts tell
me well I
would say probably since 2000
before you
started pod show hmm so it
probably
around 2003 so at least 15 16
I'd say 17
years close to 17 years at
least 15
years yes where it's oh it's
happening
now it's it's we did this 15
years ago
we saw that it wouldn't work
you idiots
cats are not new monetization of
podcasts really is just
beginning and
it's it's an advertising
supported
platform in general where the
the artist
or entertainer is reading an ad
which is
pretty old-school but you're
just
starting to see for example
Spotify
announced some streaming
advertising
insertion technology at CES
this week we
have this what 13 years ago
dynamically
inserted ads advertisers don't
want to
be a part of it they
don't want the risk they do not
want
their ads showing up on a
podcast where
someone might say poop or
something else
they don't like or I don't know
Trump
it's not going to work they
don't want
it and even if they did people
who hate
that podcast and there's a lot
of them
will go after the advertisers
and say
these guys are shit and the
advertisers
walk away for the same reason
it is no
longer model Morgan Stanley
CNBC so
we're starting to see more and
more
investment in the tech behind
it to make
it more monetizable audience
it's a
highly engaging media so I
think that I
think the opportunity is there
but we're
just getting started there are
some
small subscription services
that are ad
free but you know I'd emphasize
the word
small today oh yeah Harvey was
really
ahead of his time was it ha ha
ha yeah
Paul Harvey was ahead of his
time what
does that mean well I guess
they are
assuming that Paul Harvey who
was self
syndicated it got paid for you
know
these different radio stations
that
brought Paul Harvey little
these little
news snippets had some whose
something
like podcasting to this woman
this woman
doesn't know what she's know
she really
doesn't know what she's talking
about
but the guy from Morgan Stanley
is just
as clueless I thought he was an
old pro
they're making the same
assumptions and
the same mistakes we've seen go
on
before people have to make new
assumptions and new mistakes
that's the
way I see it well we've made
lots of
mistakes our assumption is it's
not
going to work we could not do
the show
we want to do it would not be
interesting enough if we had
advertisements and if we did
even then
it would still be the Tommy
John's me
undies Squarespace Casper
mattress of
the world because that's the
margins of
advertising you can always get
that if
you want if you want to
restrict what
you do if you want to be like
that I
think you should replay the the
Peter
Griffin clip from last show oh
that's a
good idea
what is it family guys the name
of this
family guy okay here we go
Peter we have
got to prove Lois is innocent
that's
right
and the best way to crack any
high-profile crime case is to
do a
podcast before you have all
effects okay
and the key to any podcast is
poor sound
quality and tons of commercials
all
right we've got Lois calling in
from
prison she's only got three
minutes
you bet Lois my first question
is do you
get a good night's sleep well
if you get
a Casper mattress now you have
a hundred
days to decide if it's the right
mattress for you I don't have
time for
underwear that bunches up
that's why I
wear me undies perfect
underwear for
hanging yourself in your Jail
sounds
like you could use blue apron
have you
ever wanted to receive a
vegetable in
the mail then you need blue
apron I'm
like obsessed with the stir-fry
Brian
here likes the Moroccan beef I
have no
opinion on the Moroccan beef
Peter Brian
this is not art this is
commerce oh boy
everyone knows hiring is a
nightmare at
least it was before zip
recruiter
suppurativa we've vastly
overestimate
how many podcast listeners are
in a
position to hire someone so to
wrap this
up I would like to say that I
am a
believer in our model and I
love how
well it has worked and
continues to work
because 12 years is nothing to
be
sneezed at we have an incredible
community of producers who
understand
the value for value concept and
understand that this show is
produced
with many hands and a lot of
hands doing
a lot of work including
financial
contributions the only thing
that and
this by the way is our exit
strategy the
only way to exit is to sell the
whole
kit and caboodle to some to
this next
idiot up the line
well I think video or looking
yeah you
think first of all you have a
negative
attitude but you're overlooking
something I think it should be
pointed
out which is when you mentioned
discovery and how the reason
our show
got to where it is which has
got a lot
of listeners and it's a lot of
it's word
of mouth but discovery used to
be with
music which they did kind of
end it
during the Napster era used to
be the
radio yeah
because you'd listen to songs
on the
radio and if it was even to pay
all the
days where people would pay
they have
the songs done we have the no
agenda
stream exactly which is a 24/7
stream of
our choices of the best
podcasts that
you can listen to in a
streaming basis
and if you could jerry-rigged
it up just
right you can have it just
streaming in
your cars you're driving around
and the
noise yet the stream is a good
example
of I don't know anybody else
doing that
and that's really the future of
the
whole thing it seems to me
which are
these channels of pot cast
which is what
we have even if you go to one
of the
network's these podcast
networks they
don't have a channel of no I
guess they
just have a bunch of an array
there's a
difference between an array of
shows and
a stream of show we're the only
ones
that it pioneered the stream of
shows
and if I may add when you go to
the
stream if you're if you go
there on the
oh no agenda stream calm you're
in there
in a chat room with people who
are also
recommending things I mean it's
a whole
ecosystem I think we've cracked
it and I
like that we have other shows
who are
also taking donations I don't
think we
have a single show that has any
ads in
there in their episodes that we
we
banned that I think from the
get-go I
don't think anyone does that
lots of
people who are on the stream
have value
for value propositions and it's
working
long story short take your
money out of
Morgan Stanley those guys are
idiots I'm
gonna show my food by donation
too no
agenda imagine all the people
who could
do this oh yeah
[Music]
well after all that
self-promotion we
have a very short list today um
starting with Christopher pie

since we have a few moments I
went to
the PIO box I want to thank sir
dude
named Ben anima s' for sending
me the
copy of Reason magazine had a
really
nice spread on mobile loaves
and fishes
community first village and let
me see
he's a big fan of Serrano
massive dog
patch and lower slab oviya in
fact he
says he's adopted him as his no
agenda
spiritual father because he
says bah
this is sweet just as you had
to say
goodbye to your dad last month
I had to
bury my own biological father
earlier
this summer and I still miss him
terribly
I loved hearing John Rietz
Euronymous is
incredibly well reasoned and
code
sprinkled missives every few
weeks I
assume he's not just a
highly-skilled
spook but probably a
well-heeled world
traveler I can only fantasize
that he
might welcome me as the
spiritual son
he's never met and someday deem
me
worthy to be included in his
will yeah
we all won that it was
anonymous but I
got two great books and I
really I'd
love books
Laurel Canyon covert ops and
the dark
heart of the hippie dream weird
scenes
inside the canyon you ever
heard of this
book
no but I don't know how he and
one says
anything to do with once upon a
time in
Hollywood it's probably similar
I've
seen that one no yeah I'm
thinking at a
movie and the other book is by
Lincoln
Lawrence were we controlled the
assassination of President
Kennedy that
should be interesting yeah yeah
yeah
it's I'd love I love getting
books thank
you very much and thank you to
our
producers who supported us
today on our
on our journey we need to do
better for
sure especially if that whole
rap I gave

good now I have a couple of
clips I have
a series of clips but I have a
one clip
that's kind of a standalone it
it has to
be played because it's got two
plus
marks that means is funny yes
and this
really what makes me wonder I
really
have I really am fearful
especially
since the 7 is starting with
the 787
dreamliner fiasco
were they out sourced
everything and it
became impossible to make the
plane they
finally got it off the ground
whoa did
Boeing just issue a strike that
was Mike
I've been very worried about
Boeing and
this is the report that
democracy now
produced I never heard that I
heard some
of these snippets but this this
this
presentation by Amy I think was
the best
the inquiry into the plane
crash in
Tehran comes as the jets
manufacturer
Boeing is facing even more
scrutiny over
its troubled 737 max jet as
released
internal emails show Boeing
employees
talking about deceiving federal
regulators and joking about
potential
safety flaws in the planes
design ahead
of the two fatal plane crashes
that
killed all 346 people on board
in
Indonesia and Ethiopia in one
email an
employee wrote quote this
airplane is
designed by clowns who are in
turn
supervised by monkeys unquote
in another
an employee asked a colleague
quote
would you put your family on a
max
simulator trained aircraft
I wouldn't unquote in a third a
worker
wrote an apparent reference to
interactions with the FAA quote
I still
haven't been forgiven by God
for the
covering up I did last year
unquote the
Boeing 737 max has been grounded
worldwide you know thing is
this is not
new I mean we had these
messages weeks
ago this is now just I guess
because of
the Iranian crash or the Ukraine
Airlines crash that they're
dredging it
up and out of guys hook it is
hook yeah
I never heard the these reading
these
notes I mean the design by
clowns I
heard but I never heard
supervised by
monkey so they've been been
clipping
these clip these little
snippets was
funny I just wonder about
bowing it that
mean you it's not unusual to
have

the
Boeing 737 max as internal
messages were
released showing what Boeing
Boeing
employees were saying about the
max one
reads this airplane is designed
by
clowns who in turn are
supervised by
monkeys I got a hand it to CNBC
