boom, there you go. Here's some lead. Adam curry,

John C. Dvorak, Sunday, August 21 2022. Award winning
0:08
combination media assassination episode 1479
0:12
is no agenda.
0:14
Banner you have my books and broadcasting live from the heart
0:18
of the Texas hill country here in FEMA Region number six in the
0:21
morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry
0:23
from Northern Silicon Valley where I miss Brian Stelter slash
0:27
show somehow. I'm Jhansi, Dvorak, Raglan Buzzkill.
0:33
Did you actually go looking for that? Well, he
0:36
made the statement that he was going to explain everything or
0:39
something or other on Sunday.
0:42
I don't think they'd let him do that. Did they? Did they let him
0:44
do that?
0:45
I didn't find anything. I went to the guy, maybe unless they
0:48
rented it to four in the morning or something or sometime
0:51
earlier. But from 10 on when I went downstairs, it's just Oh, I
0:56
gotta check out put it on record. And there was nothing
0:59
but there's a car and Pamela Brown and this and that is
1:03
nothing. I couldn't find anything.
1:05
How about YouTube?
1:08
I'm gonna have to look at YouTube. Maybe they'll have
1:09
it there. That's basically where you got to look for stuff, man.
1:12
As usual. I
1:13
can't find it on the station. So I'll have to say what YouTube
1:16
does enrich
1:17
my life. You know? It is it is a place where you can find stuff.
1:22
It's pretty
1:22
good. There's stuff just a fun bit shoot too, you know?
1:25
Yes. No bid, shoot, bid shoot. Let's not grumble, grumble
1:29
Bridey. on Dailymotion, Vimeo. Yeah, we can keep on going and
1:33
then no agenda bear tube and no agenda to you go. That's that's
1:37
a great place. No agenda, no agenda to. So I just want to get
1:41
one thing out of the way because my personal gripe about the
1:43
hearing aids bullshit. Oh, there we go again. Yeah, well, it's
1:48
kind of it's important to know, because Congress passed the
1:55
inflation Reduction Act, and as part of the big selling point of
1:59
the inflation Reduction Act, is
2:01
you're gonna have ending money.
2:05
Lower medical costs for you old people. And of course, I usually
2:10
don't consider myself to be part of the old people crowd yet? Not
2:14
yet. But, you know, I got the hearing aids. So I'm a little I
2:18
do have a little jump there on the
2:20
decibel broadcasters.
2:23
So. Okay, so that's, you know, that's, that's what they're out
2:27
there selling. And then I hear our vice president selling it
2:31
with this message, which I shall deconstruct right afterwards.
2:34
Greetings everyone. lowering cost is one of our
2:38
administration's highest priorities, and that includes
2:41
health care costs. To that end, the FDA has issued a new rule to
2:46
allow hearing aids to be sold over the counter. Soon,
2:50
Americans with mild to moderate hearing loss will be able to buy
2:54
their hearing aids at the local drugstore or pharmacy, no
2:58
prescription needed. This change will make it easier for millions
3:02
of Americans with hearing loss, including many seniors to
3:06
receive the care they need. And it will also reduce the cost of
3:10
a pair of hearing aids by hundreds or even 1000s of
3:13
dollars. Every American has a right to receive affordable
3:17
health care. Today, our administration has taken another
3:21
step forward in our fight to protect that right. Take care.
3:26
Take care. All right, let me take care
3:28
namaste care.
3:29
Let me explain with why this is so disingenuous, besides the
3:32
fact that it was Elizabeth Warren who got lobbied she got
3:36
tons of money from Bose and I think from others to to get this
3:40
change issued. And here's what the change is the change is only
3:44
in one thing. The definition hearing aid, there has always
3:48
been a difference. A hearing aid is a sophisticated piece of
3:51
device that you get from an audiologist you go through the
3:53
test and it's a medical thing you should that's really the
3:56
process and I can as a longtime user, I can attest to that.
4:00
Everything else that comes out of Silicon Valley or China where
4:03
you stick it in your ear use the app and it goes pretty loopy
4:06
boop, boop, and then oh, all of a sudden it's magical. That cure
4:11
that used to be known as a hearing amplification device. So
4:16
the only thing that legislation changed is now the people who
4:20
make hearing amplification devices which are not
4:23
sophisticated therefore only cost a couple $100 They now be
4:28
they may now be called hearing aids. So they were always able
4:32
to be sold through the mail over the counter etc. But now they
4:35
can call them hearing aids and they're not I mean, and guess
4:39
what? They can probably Jack the price up a little bit too. Well
4:43
Jack the price further screw the poor medical. The person that
4:49
uses medic medical gear.
4:51
Now you notice that she says people with mild hearing loss?
4:54
Yes, because that's only an amplification device will
4:57
probably help some mild hearing loss and most People can even
5:01
imagine they have mild hearing loss. But then to say, look how
5:06
great this legislation is the inflation Reduction Act, it's
5:11
going to save you 1000s of dollars. Yeah. By making you
5:15
hear shit. That's what they want for the American people. Yeah.
5:19
Oh, yeah. Hey, you know what you're gonna pay more for a
5:22
shooter your experience, and you're gonna like it. Take care,
5:25
y'all. Okay, so just to show you how it works. And that's just
5:30
the beginning of our show, ladies and gentlemen. just the
5:33
beginning. How you doing? Otherwise? Yeah,
5:37
get off your chest. Well, there's
5:39
another one. I got one more.
5:41
I mean, I'm just lay back going.
5:44
Have you been tracking the James Webb telescope. And all of the
5:48
images that have been coming in? I'm not talking about the the
5:51
one guy who took a picture of a piece of salami, that was pretty
5:54
funny troll. But the real images, the stuff that they get.
5:58
Did you see that story? It was great. I missed it.
6:01
I know. Okay, I'm flat footed here. take me take me home. Take
6:06
me on Jeeves.
6:07
Okay. As it turns out, the image is coming back from the Hubble
6:12
from the Webb telescope, which allow us to see, like 15 times
6:18
further than the Hubble telescope. And now they have
6:21
brilliant colors, etc. It hasn't really been published yet. But
6:26
there's several articles. And here's, here's an example.
6:32
Astronomers looking at web. What if the Big Bang didn't happen?
6:37
As it turns out, it's not looking the way it should. It's
6:40
not an ever expanding universe. Stuff is you know, that is
6:44
further away is actually smaller, whereas that should be
6:47
bigger. And everyone's flipping out. They don't know what to do
6:51
because there's no there's, there's astronomers tweeting
6:54
like I lay awake in bed at 3am. I wonder do we get everything
6:59
wrong? This is a phenomenal, phenomenal thing that's
7:04
happening because what if you don't have the theory of
7:07
evolution? What is the other theories? creationism?
7:13
Is their thermal it's not binary, it correct
7:16
is not I completely agree. But if you look at the two big
7:19
theories out there, it's like, they don't know what to do with
7:23
it. They're stuck. They don't know how to how to explain it.
7:26
The science is stumped.
7:28
Okay, let's go back to my when I was a kid, yeah, here we go.
7:33
Rounds couple of kids. 1957 was the International Geophysical
7:38
Year and I remember this very, very Donald's. I was I was a
7:42
little kid little stamp collector. So I remember
7:44
collecting the Steely Dan or nationally Dan IG why? So I was
7:50
a little kid, and I'm looking at the globe. And I'm looking at
7:55
South America, and I'm looking at Africa. And I'm looking at
8:00
the big chasm, oceanic chasm in between these two bodies of
8:05
land. And I'm looking, I'm looking, I'm looking to see you
8:08
know, that these two have had to have been hooked together. At
8:12
some point. They fit like two jigsaw puzzles. At the time, I
8:16
was a little kid who liked doing jigsaw.
8:18
Every kid sees this and thinks this I'm sure when you're
8:21
uncorrupted.
8:24
Yeah, and what do I get from the teacher? No, that's a myth is
8:30
not true. That's not No, no, no, no, no, no, no, you're dumb
8:35
little kid. And so okay, whatever. International GF
8:40
Geophysical Year comes around in 1957. They discovered tectonic
8:44
plates. And then they follow that up with Yeah, you know
8:49
what, these two continents are once one continent. And the
8:53
whole bowl crap all the years and years and years and years
8:57
and years of no. It turned out to be Yeah, no, that's exactly
9:01
what it was. I felt very, I felt relieved. I can imagine a common
9:08
observation that any normal person would make now was true,
9:13
though. Everyone denied it. It's officially it was officially
9:16
denied. It's I find that set my whole life on the course of
9:21
becoming a podcaster.
9:23
And look at the success you've achieved young man.
9:26
Congratulations
9:27
top early podcaster. Pioneer. Well,
9:30
there's a lot of teachers about to become podcasters.
9:33
This morning, the Minneapolis school district is sticking with
9:36
its controversial policy to lay off white teachers before
9:39
minority ones regardless of tenure. Previously, district
9:43
wide layoffs used to be handed out based on seniority. In
9:46
March, the Minneapolis teachers union negotiated a contract with
9:50
a district that states non white people can be exempted from
9:53
layoffs. In order to remedy the continuing effects of past
9:57
discrimination. The district is telling ABC News The contract
10:01
the recruitment and retention of teachers from underrepresented
10:04
groups that remedy now prompting legal concerns
10:08
the Supreme Court has been really clear on this issue that
10:10
just having a policy to prefer one race over another in terms
10:15
of layoffs is clearly a violation of the 14th amendment.
10:19
Special interest groups say in 2020, students of color and
10:23
Native Americans made up 35% of Minnesota's K through 12
10:27
population, but only 4% of the more than 63,000 teachers in the
10:31
state were people of color,
10:33
or Minneapolis, there's like a gap between the diversity of
10:37
students in the diversity or lack diversity of our teachers.
10:40
This is not about trying to pit one racial group of teachers
10:44
against another. This is about serving students the best
10:48
several black educators in Minneapolis in agreement with
10:51
the contract, when they see somebody who looks like me, and
10:54
maybe it looks like them. They feel a greater sense of
10:56
connection and
10:57
belonging in that community,
10:59
I would say that we were first asked to start hiring more
11:03
educational professionals of color and start hiring more
11:06
licensed teachers of colors.
11:08
Others believe the new policy will do more harm than good.
11:11
There's different ways that we should be hiring, but we should
11:14
not be implementing hiring decisions based on the color of
11:17
people's skin.
11:19
You know, we have, we had house guests last night, a friend of
11:22
Tinos, who they've been friends, since Tina's old days when she
11:25
worked at the bank. They were both in finance. And, and she's
11:31
now a professional executive coach. She does executive
11:36
training for executives and, and I'm starting to ask her about
11:39
it. So what exactly does that mean? A lot of push ups? Well,
11:43
it's much more almost like therapy when and part of that is
11:48
there's she does have a lot of male clients. But you can
11:51
imagine men in a corporate setting they they have filters
11:54
on all the time like, oh, I can't say this. I can't say that
11:57
they have they have trouble managing people because of this
12:02
continuous friction of what can you say and what can you do? But
12:06
she has one female client and African American Tabitha which
12:10
was mixed, maybe an Asian African American woman what was
12:13
and this woman was hired to be like a powerful position. And
12:20
she realized that she was really out of her depth. And then she
12:25
realized Holy shit, I was a diversity hire. And it's and it
12:29
hurt her
12:31
like realize finding out your adopted
12:35
but interesting analogy. But But yeah, that yes. And that was
12:41
that shocking for her and but the worst part was, she
12:44
couldn't. She couldn't do it. And she had to figure out how to
12:48
resign you know, she and she so it really the polish that was
12:51
intended to lift her up and be so kind to her really set her
12:55
back in her career. It's amazing this that people don't think
12:58
this should through
13:00
surmising. It's a very, that's actually a fascinating
13:04
situation. I'm sure you learned from the coach.
13:09
Oh, yeah. Some other stuff that some other stuff I got to talk
13:12
to you about later.
13:13
But by the way, what when in Minnesota become the number one
13:16
woke area? They keep coming up with this stuff. One thing after
13:20
another. It's strange to me.
13:22
That's a good point.
13:24
But this is not new. I mean, it wasn't a shock. That was
13:27
Minnesota. I mean, I'd be I'd be more I'd actually be kind of
13:31
shocked if it was Iowa. But Minnesota always comes up with
13:34
this stuff over and over and over again. I do remember I do
13:38
well.
13:39
Well. I think we have talked about this that the Minneapolis
13:42
law enforcement and the way Minneapolis dealt with
13:45
immigrants that is definitely similar to Austin in a way
13:48
there's you know, the right side of the tracks wrong side of the
13:51
tracks. And well there's a lot of stuff going on and I
13:55
want to throw this in again, a Minnesota was like Austin
14:01
contaminated by Californians. Oh,
14:04
totally possible.
14:06
Try no was it was happening because my wife had a bunch of
14:09
friends they moved to Minnesota from because it was cheaper is
14:14
the old the lure crazy lore of the Midwest
14:19
kids.
14:20
That's going westward young man go there, freeze your butt off.
14:25
But anyway, so that's why they moved there and they weren't and
14:28
they were all with other expats. All of them from California and
14:32
all in Minneapolis. Hmm, interesting. No, I mean, it
14:38
hasn't been studied like Washington States filled with
14:40
what was the mark California is coming up here. They're going to
14:44
screw up our real estate values. Our homes are going to become
14:46
worth a lot more money but you get big this How dumb they are
14:49
up in Washington? Oh no, all the houses are going to become very
14:53
valuable and we could sell for a lot more money and we could also
14:56
take out loans on him and really do well because our property and
14:59
everything And our net worth is going to go up get away
15:02
Californians go back. What's your Washingtonian there?
15:07
Port Angeles was in the news the other day I don't remember what
15:11
it was some woke there
15:12
was they're starting to store cargo container ships and other
15:15
boats giant ships in the harbor there because this morning
15:20
prices are dirt cheap and
15:22
other free. There was something else it was some woke thing that
15:25
was hilarious. And I thought, Oh my god.
15:27
Whoa. A lot of stuff starting to go on was against California.
15:32
Thank you world for the gift that keeps on giving. Well,
15:37
you're
15:38
still there. You
15:38
can contaminate anybody. No kidding.
15:42
You're still there though.
15:45
I like it.
15:49
And there it is. He likes it. Mikey likes it. It's all good
15:52
people. It's all good. Oh, man, this there's so much so much to
15:58
discuss. Oh, okay. Well, I'm gonna be right before you veer
16:01
off.
16:02
I do have a teacher's clip. Oh, groovy. Because you know it's
16:05
going to New Jersey also contaminated by California. Is
16:09
this guy so sad as I consider myself a former Jersey boy, of
16:13
course. Now I'm a Texan. But I was in Jersey for 12 years, I
16:16
really connected with the energy of the people. That has
16:21
obviously changed. I left in 1999. So a lot has changed. But
16:25
it's sad for me to hear these things. Jersey was just it was
16:28
just different man. It was it was cool. All right.
16:31
The coolness is leaving because teachers are taking over here we
16:35
go. This is New Jersey teachers versus the public.
16:38
And heading north to New Jersey. The largest teachers union there
16:41
is facing backlash for a new ad that appears to label parents
16:45
who speak out at school board meetings as extremists. Here are
16:48
the details. The New
16:49
Jersey Education Association posted this ad on YouTube on
16:53
August 15, titled same thing. The group is New Jersey's
16:58
largest teachers union with 200,000 members.
17:01
We don't agree on everything in New Jersey. But we all agree
17:04
that our kids deserve a world class education. So when
17:07
extremists start attacking our schools, that's not who we are.
17:11
People who only want to fight to score political points should
17:15
take that somewhere else.
17:16
New Jersey is set to begin a controversial new sex education
17:20
standard this fall, it would require public schools to
17:23
incorporate LGBTQ themed content into their K to five curricula.
17:28
Oh man.
17:31
Now I want to mention something here not now. I sound like an
17:33
old fart and I'm going to sound like one. I remember when LGP BT
17:39
Q whatever. We're starting to make inroads and they would say
17:44
we're going to do this or we're going to do that and they always
17:46
promised that the promise literally promised and I
17:49
remember it happening in California that don't worry
17:52
about we're not going to go into the schools and proselytize it's
17:55
never going to happen with a gay teachers right just hire us
17:59
we'll be fine. We'll be will blend right in don't worry about
18:02
it. And now this is what we get. This is the Thank you, which is
18:07
you know, for accommodation, let's say is that the next thing
18:11
you know, oh, first grader began to learn about LGBTQ plus. So I
18:16
just find this to be very suddenly offensive. And and
18:21
based on a lie. So let's go to part two of this.
18:23
It expects students to define terms such as sex assigned at
18:26
birth, gender identity, cisgender and transgender by the
18:30
end of fifth grade. The ad shows photos of parents protesting at
18:34
school board meetings with two news headlines, one titled son
18:38
New Jersey schools under siege and the other called Don't say
18:42
gay bill introduced by New Jersey State Senator. One of the
18:46
photos was taken in August 2021. At a Nevada school board meeting
18:50
parents there protested against the school district's COVID-19
18:54
Mask mandate. Another photo depicts a man yelling during a
18:57
May 2021 meeting in Georgia after the school board rescinded
19:01
a resolution against the teaching of critical race
19:04
theory. Republican lawmakers criticized the ad saying the
19:08
union is out of touch with parents concerns. The New Jersey
19:12
Republican Party wrote it protecting our children from New
19:15
Jersey Governor Phil Murphy's insane sex ed standards is
19:18
extreme than we wear this as a badge of honor. The ad by NJ EA
19:23
has gained over 90,000 views on YouTube and the comments section
19:27
is turned off.
19:30
So they they're disingenuous with their the ad itself is
19:34
showing other areas claiming it's them. And then if you
19:38
remember the first clip, the woman says oh don't come in here
19:42
and grouse about what we're teaching so you can gain
19:45
political points. What What parent who's going through a
19:50
school board meeting is looking for political points, not
19:54
running for anything. They're just bitching and moaning. So
19:57
this whole thing happening in New Jersey is probably one of
20:00
the worst case examples in the country.
20:03
Well, it's so bad that one of our very own producers, Sir
20:08
Chris Holman, Dr. Chris is running for school board of
20:12
Novi, Michigan. And he wanted us to mention that so it comes up
20:18
and there you go. And he's sick of it. He's sick of it. So go to
20:23
Chris holman.com Double Oh, that's that's what's gonna have
20:29
to happen. Every single no agenda producer has to run for
20:32
something.
20:33
Yeah, I guess so. Starts people
20:36
that mean, we are the last 1.4 million people on earth you can
20:39
save everybody we have a great end of show makes from the no
20:46
agenda primetime players are Christian. I
20:49
heard it I heard it is. It's long, but good. And it's very,
20:55
it's a kind of a it's a different kind of end of show.
20:59
It is because it's not a song or anything. It is actually a a
21:05
drama. It is a mock advertisement. It's hard to say
21:09
you can't really pigeonhole it but it's dynamite. A piece of
21:13
work written by Chris Wilson, and performed by himself named
21:19
Jennifer and a few others and
21:21
Chris's his son, Felix Yeah. surfy Yeah, he's
21:24
Felix, who's destined to be in show business is to take off
21:29
really get out of the house.
21:30
It's a take off on some stuff that we've played and kind of
21:33
falls into and I don't want to spoil it. You got to listen to
21:35
the end of the show is going to be well worth it. People were
21:39
digging the trolls were digging it this morning. I played it pre
21:41
pre string despite that,
21:43
listen to it. I like it.
21:47
Alright, you want to take a topic here? Or where do you want
21:50
to go?
21:52
There's some funny stuff that's off the wall. It's a little
21:54
different. I don't have a lot of COVID I think I may have. But I
21:59
definitely
21:59
have some COVID I got some monkey pox as a new virus out.
22:03
There's always a new PC.
22:05
The CDC is reorganizing. You want to talk about that for a
22:07
second?
22:08
That though we talked about in the last show? Yeah. But now we
22:11
have Dr. Scott Gottlieb talking about it. Well, let's
22:15
go with this then. And and it looks like
22:17
we also have a scapegoat. Have you seen that? What is her name?
22:23
Will insky Not willing to be leaner when Dr. Lena Wen.
22:28
And all Lena wins get to get it? Yeah. Well, she deserves it.
22:32
She's gonna be the scapegoat. That would be great. She's
22:34
gonna be the scapegoat.
22:36
I'll tell you I do that little hypocrite a week young. Yeah.
22:42
And Lena when it comes up a lot because she's and just until
22:45
recently, she said, Well, we should lock down everyone. And
22:48
she even made the statement that if you're unvaccinated should
22:51
never leave your house you should not be allowed and then
22:55
she's got to she's got to you know kind of shit eating grin on
22:57
her face all the time. She's friendly looking a bunch and
23:00
she's on all the talk shows. But she's a terrible person. She's a
23:04
horrible person.
23:05
So she's been the this is from the Boston Globe actually. Some
23:10
attendees and upcoming conference want to prevent Dr.
23:12
Lena Lena wet Lena when from speaking their accusation she
23:16
has been expressing views on COVID that are essentially
23:19
mainstream among the public's at the Boston Globe. But here it
23:21
is. The scientists feel that referred to as unscientific for
23:26
suggesting this spring that vaccinated people should be able
23:29
to return to a pre pandemic normal. She is called unethical
23:33
for largely agreeing with the new guidance for schools from
23:35
the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention which relaxed
23:38
relaxed restrictions on distancing mask and automatic
23:41
quarantine which I think actually she didn't but okay.
23:45
She's chided, chided don't chide me bro. What is chided? You
23:52
know, ribbed
23:54
mom is like I do with you all the time.
23:56
Wow. So it's ammonia Tourette's? I don't know it's me now.
24:01
I don't know I don't think childhood is mean at all. It's
24:05
just let's it literally means a gentle prodding like a giant dot
24:09
F. Now I'll say this before you continue because she's Chinese.
24:15
Yeah, they better let her off the hook or they're asking for
24:17
trouble.
24:18
Oh diversity, diversity troubles.
24:22
It's got to be a white person escaped goes either gonna have
24:26
to be Fauci Good point. Now, per one, or that other Burke's take
24:32
Burks. Birx has already thrown herself under the butt thrown
24:36
herself under the bus with that book of hers
24:38
that was presented to me Burke's preemptive Well, who's left
24:42
Bouchy that there's a couple of guy that was the janitor.
24:48
Just throw Jared Kushner under the bus
24:51
has nothing to do with it. Perfect. It's making
24:55
it his fault. Anyway, so we were just talking about on the last
24:59
show about the CD He's reorganizing, and everyone's
25:02
talking about the big picture stuff. But really what's
25:04
happening will become apparent. But let's just set it up with
25:09
this interview with Dr. Scott Gottlieb from Meet the Press.
25:13
With Chuck chip. Todd Todd put him under the bus. Right this
25:17
would be, that would be great, but little chance of it. So
25:20
we'll Lenski send out an email on this is the impetus for this
25:23
discussion.
25:24
CDC director Rochelle walensky is admitting that the agency
25:26
must make some drastic changes to better respond to public
25:29
health emergencies. As we reported here yesterday in an
25:31
email to CDC employees. Well, let's get outline some of those
25:34
changes, including an overhaul of how the agency analyzes, and
25:37
shares data and how the CDC quickly communicates information
25:40
to the public. The push for accountability comes as the
25:43
nation is dealing with multiple public health challenges right
25:46
now. The extremely transmissible ba fives a variant is now deemed
25:50
to be the dominant COVID strain in the United States. Some new
25:53
boosters are being developed to strain and that's expected to be
25:56
available in the fall. The US also has seen an outbreak of
25:59
monkey pox cases now numbering more than 13,000. And then
26:03
there's polio, which has been identified in New York City
26:05
wastewater after a case was reported in Rockland County last
26:09
month. So joining me now, sort of get the lay of the land here
26:12
of our public health areas. Dr. Scott Gottlieb, he's a former
26:15
FDA commissioner himself a CNBC contributor, and easily one of
26:20
our country's foremost experts on public health. Dr. Gottlieb
26:23
is good to see you, sir. Thanks a lot. So let's start waiting in
26:27
some ways. Director will eskies statement in email was sort of a
26:31
bit of like, okay, that's exactly what you would expect
26:35
you would hope. an after action report of sorts would indicate.
26:42
Based on what you've read of the email and what she's talking
26:44
about, is she on the right track? Ask a question. Thank
26:47
you. I think she is I think the CDC director was pretty
26:50
unflinching in her analysis of what the systemic problems had
26:53
been at CDC, not just in the setting of the COVID outbreak,
26:56
COVID pandemic, and the monkey pox outbreak but going back to
27:00
Ebola and Zika, even seasonal flu where the agency has
27:03
suffered systemic problems, trying to you have they
27:07
screwed it up, they didn't get Zika to take hold, they they
27:09
screwed up the tiny heads
27:11
gather data, make it available to the public speak directly to
27:15
the public public put out guidance that's actionable.
27:18
That's bottom line that businesses and consumers can
27:21
interpret. The agency's long suffered from the fact that it
27:24
has a very academic culture, they are accustomed to trying to
27:28
collect information, put out analysis and published articles
27:31
and not speak directly to consumers in actual ways. I
27:34
think she was pretty unflinching in her analysis of that actual
27:37
way, you know, he's on a path to try to put in place some reforms
27:39
that will start to address it.
27:41
So that's just all word salad bowl crops. I
27:43
mean, they don't know how to, they don't speak to consumers in
27:47
actual ways. But what does that sentence mean? Well, actual ways
27:53
he
27:53
is demonstrating how the CDC communicates clearly, actual way
27:58
actually always that's him. Not communicating in an actual way
28:02
by saying something that's not actual English or explanatory.
28:06
It's okay, because it's all a setup. Here's Chuck toad. He's
28:10
going to SET set him up with the whole power grab. You know,
28:13
it's always odd to me. Dr. Gottlieb that we never met, the
28:17
CDC director was never the one front and center at the
28:22
beginning of this pandemic. And whether it was the current CDC
28:25
director or the previous one, that it was sort of that it was
28:28
coming from NIH, you bring up the academic, shouldn't NIH be
28:31
the sort of more academic environment and CDC be the more
28:35
public health emergency agency? Now?
28:39
That's it put Fauci in charge?
28:40
Yeah, look, parts of CDC are action oriented, they're
28:43
operationally driven. But by and large, that organization has a
28:47
very academic culture where they're accustomed to collecting
28:49
information and doing very long dated analytical work, and not
28:54
putting out real time information that can inform
28:56
current decisions and inform policymakers. The decision in
28:58
terms of whether or not the CDC is speaking to these issues on a
29:02
daily basis with someone else in the administration was doing
29:04
that that's ultimately a decision made by the White
29:06
House. If you remember, during the Ebola outbreak, the Obama
29:09
administration had besser, the CDC director really run point on
29:13
that and be the spokesperson during the Trump administration.
29:16
The CDC director didn't speak to the COVID epidemic and in this
29:19
administration, they've had other people running point for
29:23
them in terms of the communication, that's really a
29:25
decision by the White House.
29:27
Running points. All right, running point. So you see, this
29:30
is the problem. And of course, Gottlieb is going to tell us
29:33
what's going on?
29:34
Is there any of this in what she announced at CDC that her hands
29:38
are going to be tied a little bit because of HHS?
29:43
Well, ultimately, she's going to need support of HHS, but I think
29:46
the real challenge is going to be that in order to
29:48
fundamentally reform that organization, you're going to
29:50
need help from Congress, ultimately, with certain aspects
29:54
of what they do when it comes to their core disease control
29:56
mission, and really their national security mission. They
29:59
need new if Authorities new resources, I think in terms of
30:02
getting a bargain from Congress, what they ought to be thinking
30:04
about is trying to narrow the scope of the CDC is mission,
30:07
trying to give to sister agencies components of what CDC
30:10
currently does, and other agencies may be able to do just
30:13
as well, if not better, for example, postmarket vaccine
30:16
adverse event reporting, some of the tobacco work can both be
30:19
handled by FDA, some of the disease prevention research can
30:22
be held by NIH, and then go to Congress and say, Look, we want
30:25
to focus on the disease control mission. But to do that, well,
30:28
we're going to need some new resources and new authorities. I
30:30
think the only way that CDC is going to get those new resources
30:33
and authorities from Congress is in some kind of bargain like
30:36
that with a more tightly focused the mission of that
30:38
organization.
30:39
There it is. There's your CDC, and so
30:43
I Okay. I think you when you made your point in the last
30:49
show, I don't think you have to pound it home. You view.
30:54
Although I have to say you're still the only one in the media
30:58
that is brought this up.
31:01
But you're tired of it.
31:03
I don't know why I get tired of it so fast. But yes, I am. And
31:08
but I'll say this. And I what I'll do is I'll repeat what I'll
31:13
reiterate what you your theory is. And I've been hearing it
31:18
too, because I've been listening to different causes, but I
31:20
haven't been clipping them because Oh, I know Adam was
31:22
right. They are trying to dominate this what Adams theory
31:27
is for people out there that don't didn't catch it the first
31:29
time or didn't catch on that. They are trying to rejigger this
31:36
not about reordering. It's about getting them more power. Because
31:41
one of the things that happened during this last pandemic is
31:44
that the health departments were lording it over everybody. But
31:47
at some point, it wasn't working very well, because we hated
31:50
these people. They were all doofuses and dummies, and they
31:54
didn't have enough power to lock us down for some, you know, when
31:58
they just demanded it. And so they felt like it. So the thesis
32:04
is is that this, this whole thing with the CDC is a ruse to
32:08
give them the power to lock us down at the drop of a hat. And
32:13
that goes somehow morphed so that you didn't bring this in,
32:16
but it is part of the overall thesis that we both have. This
32:20
will morph into being able to lock us down for climate change.
32:24
Yeah. Oh, yeah.
32:26
Oh, no, that's Well, remember, food is medicine. So it's all
32:31
going to be connected. It's all going to be connected. And as I
32:34
was listening to the show, thank you, by the way for that. I
32:37
don't need to pound it anymore. I've stopped good hounding stop
32:41
the pounding, pounding.
32:43
I got it. And if anyone else didn't get it, I gave it to this
32:47
is that was summery was it? That's it. So and when you're
32:51
listening to these clips, by the way, you'll be hearing a lot of
32:53
some yak yak yak going away for the next month. Underneath under
32:58
the undertone is exactly that. All we need to do this and
33:02
nurtured earned in order to get Congress involved can give us
33:05
some more power.
33:06
Yeah, so as I was looking at it early, I was listening to the
33:09
previous episode, which often do for professional reasons.
33:14
I caught sounds so good. Oh, yeah.
33:17
I'm just like, Oh, baby, we sound
33:19
mad. I like it when Majan rushing that segway
33:23
was fab. Oh, man, Joe. John had a great joke there. No, in fact,
33:30
I caught Dr. Shaw, who was one of the people running point on
33:35
COVID for this White House. And the true power came out in this
33:39
clip. Yeah, sorry. This
33:41
guy's annoying. You know, I keep forgetting how annoying is until
33:45
I see him literally see him on the screen. Yeah, he's really
33:50
not good.
33:51
So listen to where the true power lies. Who will be the
33:54
first in line is this essentially going? I'm sorry.
33:56
Just to explain. This is about the new by Vaillant by violence
34:00
would you call it by valence by violent by Vaillant by Vaillant,
34:04
mRNA. Vaccines, which are being being manufactured? And and he's
34:11
gonna he's gonna tell us who's driving that process? Who will
34:15
be the first in line? Is
34:16
this essentially going to be a third booster?
34:20
Yeah, you know, Lester, here's why.
34:22
The FDA has pushed us to build these vaccines. And the bottom
34:26
line is, here's
34:28
why the FDA has pushed us to build these vaccines. Hmm, the F
34:35
does now what does the CDC do if the FDA what does the FDA do?
34:40
Aren't they supposed to run trials?
34:43
And they're supposed to be telling people what to do? Yeah,
34:47
sure
34:47
are they're telling doctors Jada to build more vaccines, build
34:51
them, build them. Build them. This just to me it's it's
34:55
troubling lesson
34:56
here's why. The FDA has pushed us to do build these vaccines
35:00
and the bottom line is that this virus has evolved substantially.
35:05
Since the first vaccines were built. This is why we've seen
35:07
waning immunity. The vaccines that are coming in a few short
35:10
weeks are specifically designed for the virus that's out
35:13
there. So interesting. I've never heard this, this building
35:17
the vaccine is that that must be inherent to mRNA I guess. You
35:22
build an mRNA vaccines that have created grow it, develop it, and
35:30
we never heard this before. Build it, build it.
35:34
Build it near will come. It's okay. It's okay. I did point out
35:38
as anyone who'd noticed the newsletter, I did point out my
35:41
thesis which I wanted to make sure that was out there before
35:44
anyone else had it, which is that the idea is to have a
35:49
annual shot. They're already talking about this. So we're
35:52
going to do this anyway. The annual Coronavirus shot going
35:55
along with your annual flu shot it's useless but okay. And then
36:00
I'm pretty sure I mean, it's makes nothing but sense to me
36:03
that we're gonna go for a twice a year annual shot because
36:07
there's a winter and a summer version. And it's something they
36:10
have not they've been they've not been able to pull it off
36:13
with the flu shot because the flu never shows up in the
36:15
summer. But the Coronavirus can be a summer cold
36:18
I would say it's going to be every three months and I based
36:22
Yeah, I
36:22
know I put that in there too as a possibility. But I think
36:25
they're not that's pushing
36:26
it but I'm just basing it on Germany's vaccine passport
36:30
system that they are now have announced and will be rolling
36:32
out, which requires you to be up to date within three months. And
36:40
they have four different levels if you're topped up. So it feels
36:44
to me like they're going for a quarterly well, which is great
36:48
because you can also then do the quarterly results of Pfizer and
36:53
moderna, etc. On the same demo just before earnings just before
36:57
earnings. You make an ear he's like you make a new
37:00
announcement. Yeah. Perfect. But it's okay because the it's done.
37:06
The programming is in place. People will will accept it. And
37:11
do you remember film girl remember how we used to have fun
37:13
about film girl over there on twit? Which was her real name
37:17
film girl remember that?
37:19
Yes. I don't remember us ever having making fun.
37:22
Film girl. Come on. She's like it's you. It's us kind of an
37:27
early Wow, man. Film girl and let me just use. I can't believe
37:33
you don't remember this. Christina and Christina Warren.
37:38
No, that's not Yeah, that's what we called film girl. Yes, yes.
37:42
Yes. Yes. Okay. Christina Warren. Yeah. Okay.
37:44
Do you remember times?
37:45
Yeah. All right. So you remember Christina Warren? Oh, yeah.
37:48
Okay, well, those are just going to be fond memories. Okay,
37:51
fine. Whatever. Just Just tell me what shot I need to get. And
37:54
I'll get it. It's fine.
37:55
Okay, so there you go. That's
37:57
the attitude out there. That's what you have with the Tony
38:00
Kornheiser on I had a clip of him going if they tell me to get
38:04
a shot every morning. I'm gonna get one. Yeah, if it wants to be
38:08
their way, it's fine. By the way doctors shy at
38:12
the right guy. You're getting mad
38:14
to start your jaw. Because I every time I look at me thinking
38:20
oh, that's where JEFFREY TOOBIN when I'm telling you look at it.
38:26
It's JEFFREY TOOBIN. Yeah, it's a
38:32
little I quite, but I feel a little bit
38:36
of prosthetics, no big deal. You can pet eating passage sounds
38:39
like him. Looks like you never see his hands. Do you?
38:46
Ladies and gentlemen, you'll be here every Thursday and Sunday
38:49
is he's the best. Let's go to ABC and talk about some monkey
38:53
pox because Oh, my it looks like what is it still just men who
38:57
have sex with men? Is it a sexually transmitted? Can you
39:00
get it from anything else? I mean, there's a lot of confusion
39:02
to the vaccines worker, what do we do? We're very confused
39:04
as to why we've been tracking the first suspected case of
39:07
human to dog monkey pox transmission in France. And that
39:11
news has led the CDC to update its website on the virus
39:14
including how to protect our pets. So to help us break it all
39:18
down. We have veterinarian and director of virtual medicine at
39:21
Vaughn vet, Dr. Lisa Lippmann, Dr. Lipman, thank you for being
39:24
with us. Thanks
39:25
for having me having me
39:32
so how concerned are you about this recent development?
39:36
Yeah, so I am really pretty concerned number one, anytime
39:40
you have a virus that jumps species to species number one,
39:43
it makes it so much harder to control. Number two, we also
39:47
risk having mutations. The other thing about this is that I think
39:50
the the signs in dogs are signs that can be easily overlooked.
39:54
So general malaise you know the the pucks in not obvious spots
39:59
and We'll get to that. But
40:04
notice the spots in not so obvious places. We'll get to
40:08
that later. Oh, yes, we will. Because what she's telling me
40:12
here is that it's transmitted not sexually. In fact, it's
40:16
transmitted to dogs and to children. And it's not sexual,
40:20
though. What is it? It's very confusing. So
40:22
talk about how I mean, obviously, when this story
40:25
broke, you know, the headline a lot of times was, oh, it's
40:28
mostly sexual contact with dogs. Now, of course, we're trying to
40:33
get that message out that you can have just direct skin to
40:36
skin contact and transmit this virus doesn't have to be sexual
40:40
in nature. So with pets, what do we know about the route of
40:43
transmission? That's right,
40:44
so the one dog that we know that was infected, slept with two
40:48
owners who were both infected, so they had skin to skin
40:52
contact. This was an Italian Greyhound, a very short hair,
40:56
pretty much hairless almost. And so they had direct skin to skin
41:00
contact, and 12 days later became symptomatic. And so that
41:04
direct skin to skin contact is so important, but also thinking
41:08
about things like their feces, their urine, any close contact
41:11
right now, this is so new and so developing, we just have to be
41:14
as safe as possible. Okay,
41:15
so she, you know, yes.
41:17
If I was the reporter, I would ask the obvious question, I
41:21
disallowance is somewhat lewd. I would ask, Was it a male or a
41:28
female greyhound? And just to wonder, just wondering,
41:34
I understand your line of questioning. That's why you are
41:38
a podcaster. And are working at ABC
41:40
solidly? Exactly. One of the reasons Good Morning, America,
41:44
Ireland to the Yes.
41:45
So this goes on this goes on for segments. I'm actually going to
41:49
drop the another segment about other rodents and go straight to
41:53
kind of answering your question.
41:56
You mentioned a little bit Dr. Littman, some of the symptoms we
41:58
might see in our pets, if you can just go over those with us
42:01
too, as to what to look out for. And then what can we as pet
42:05
owners do to avoid any sort of transmission?
42:09
Yeah, so symptoms, again, it's developing, but they can be very
42:13
general. So for just like in people, I think general malaise,
42:17
being feverish, not feeling well not wanting to eat, to having
42:21
those pustules or vesicles. Again, this dog has them around
42:25
his mouth, around his anus and on his abdomen. And these are
42:30
on Come on. Come on. What would your next question be John C.
42:36
Dvorak. Good Morning America.
42:38
Your I would have killed the story right there on the spot.
42:43
Not a podcast,
42:44
okay, really this?
42:46
I would have said Hey, lady, you're making me sick.
42:51
They deadpan the stuff they just deadpan it it's only skin to
42:55
skin contact. Hey, this dog has almost no hair. So where did he
42:58
happen? Well, you know this dog smiles.
43:04
Again, this dog around his neck around on his abdomen. And these
43:10
are signs that again can be so easily overlooked as getting
43:13
every guy or that too so you know, if they're not feeling
43:17
well in any way and you know that they've had known exposure,
43:20
then it's really important to tell your vet so everybody can
43:23
be sale
43:23
this story.
43:26
Jeez, all right, we kill the dog story we move over to the CIA
43:30
Broadcasting System, CBS and mornings. Let's see how things
43:34
are going with the monkey Fox over at CBS after
43:36
waiting about a month 20 year old Edward O'Keefe finally
43:40
received his first dose of the monkey pox vaccine at this New
43:44
Jersey clinic Thursday, frankly, like the government has dropped
43:47
the ball to meet the growing rise in cases amidst a shortage
43:51
of vaccines. The CDC is now in fourth
43:54
cut that was a very weird insert I'm just realizing it did was
43:58
almost like a whipsaw. Listen to the
44:00
Jersey clinic Thursday, frankly, like the government has dropped
44:03
the ball to meet the growing rise cases amidst
44:07
was that the guy that got the shots? Yeah, he got was that
44:10
that was some some random it was he bitched about he got a shot
44:14
and he's thinks the government dropped the ball because he got
44:16
an injection. So that's what
44:17
that's my point is they just inserted that little clip to set
44:20
up the story that the government dropped the ball but has just
44:23
paid for the beginning
44:24
after waiting about a month 20 year old Edward Wayne received
44:28
his the monkey post. This New Jersey clinic Thursday, frankly,
44:33
like the government has dropped the ball to meet the growing
44:36
rise in cases amidst a shortage of vaccines. The CDC is now
44:41
encouraging 1/5 of the dose be administered just below the
44:45
skin, arguing that will stretch supply. The White House says it
44:49
will distribute almost 2 million doses to regions that adopt that
44:54
change. CDC Director Dr. Rochelle walensky admits there's
44:58
still a lot that Government has to learn about this outbreak,
45:02
including the effectiveness of the vaccines, we expect
45:06
protection
45:07
to be the highest two weeks after the second dose of the
45:11
vaccine.
45:13
90% of monkey pox cases are in men 93% among men who reported
45:19
recent sexual contact with other men. And more than 60% of cases
45:24
are among men of color.
45:26
We're not reaching men who have sex with men who are black and
45:30
brown the way that we
45:31
need to
45:32
remember the numbers of infected children have started to rise.
45:36
We're not reaching men, black of the black and brown community
45:40
who sometimes have sex with men. What does she say? men who have
45:45
sex with men who are black and brown the way that we need to
45:49
we're not we're not reaching out to them the way we need to okay
45:52
because black and brown men can't understand English when
45:55
the dog
45:57
now the numbers of infected children have started to rise.
46:01
There are at least 12 confirmed cases of children with monkey
46:05
pox in the US
46:06
children are at higher risk for severe monkey pox. It can even
46:11
be deadly in very young children.
46:13
Dr. gounder says the most likely source of exposure to monkey pox
46:17
for children is through close contact with a caregiver.
46:21
So why do we not have any women with this? And are these
46:24
children male children? Are they female children? This is very,
46:31
very troubling. And it's rolling out the black and brown
46:36
community they need to we're not
46:40
I don't know who's ever doing this particular program of
46:46
propaganda is doing a piss poor job. Well miss.
46:51
Here's what is taking place. And I've heard this from many
46:55
personal conversations, the quote unquote queer community
46:59
are all looking for monkey pox vaccines because hey, I'm around
47:03
gay people. Even though it's only Texas, New York,
47:10
California. Hey, son, you never seen Brokeback Mountain met it?
47:15
I should over here. So that means that there's a demand the
47:20
product is in demand and it's in the news. The government? I'm
47:24
sorry? No,
47:25
no, I was gonna say I have a I think I took a screenshot this.
47:29
I didn't put it in the newsletter I may put in the next
47:31
one. I have a picture of the monkey monkey pox vaccine vial.
47:37
Yeah, they showed on TV and I don't know if this is the real
47:40
deal or whatever. But it says specifically not for use in a
47:46
national emergency.
47:48
Oh, well, we didn't didn't Biden declared didn't the World Health
47:52
Organization declare monkeypox an emergency? That that I know
47:56
of? I'll look it up. While he might my segway was perfect into
48:01
the queer community.
48:03
Don't blame me for ruin segways. As part of the show,
48:07
the government will also set aside an extra 50,000 vaccine
48:11
doses available for cities with large gay pride events coming
48:15
up. But it is important to remember even though most cases
48:18
are in men who have sex with other men, anyone can get this
48:23
virus the numbers moving in the wrong direction Yeah, anybody
48:26
can get it but how difficult is it Tonya to get Is there a way
48:29
to explain it is difficult you shouldn't be overly concerned
48:33
but it can spread through infected bedding infected
48:36
towels. Oh close.
48:41
Where's the documentation for this bullcrap?
48:45
We just got through two minutes of men who have sex with men and
48:49
children and dogs. But now bedding and towels bedding you
48:54
know don't sneeze mask up difficult
48:56
you shouldn't be overly concerned but it can spread
49:00
through infected bedding infected towels infected clothes
49:04
so just just wash it so it's not necessarily just skin to skin
49:07
when you're talking about bed right?
49:09
Don't share towels in the locker room all right,
49:13
glad mines got my name on
49:23
the punch line was or dropped the so but yeah, that's stupid
49:26
guys and can't do anything. It's not a podcast. It's alright. So
49:30
that's that's the media sprayed. Fellow 15 forever. That's the
49:35
media side. Let's go back to the pharma Big Pharma side hate to
49:40
bring them back in. But we do have to talk about Scott
49:43
Gottlieb one more time
49:44
is the current monkey pox outbreak sort of one another
49:48
exhibit to say hey, this is how we were a little slow here and
49:53
and yeah, this is another example of CDC being a little
49:56
bit a little bit on their backfoot
50:00
Well, CDC and HHS, I think we've suffered from the fact that we
50:04
carry sequentially in the setting of this outbreak rather
50:08
than in parallel, for example, the issues around the vaccine
50:10
supply. They could have made some decisions early on to start
50:14
finishing some of that vaccine, they had 11 point 5 million
50:18
doses and frozen bulk product that they could have started
50:20
finishing right away,
50:21
says a man on the board of directors of a company that
50:23
sells vaccines, while they work
50:25
with the manufacturers scale up manufacturing of new stock,
50:28
those things were done very sequentially. And so we didn't
50:31
have enough supply early in the setting of the outbreak really
50:33
to address the public health challenge. So I think it's some
50:35
shakes that are being made over again. But these really go back
50:38
a decade. I think the agency's you've been operating this way
50:41
for a very long time.
50:43
I'm not going to pound that fact, I will take it straight
50:45
from monkey pox to polio very quickly
50:47
on polio. This finding and wastewater is this. This should
50:53
be containable. How concerned are you though with vaccine
50:57
hesitancy that if we do try to get some folks revaccinated Here
51:01
we may have a problem.
51:03
Most should be containable. But if you look at that county where
51:05
it seems to be spreading, I think at this point there is
51:07
community transmission. That seems to be the message coming
51:10
out of the CDC and public health officials in New York. That
51:13
community only has about Rockland County only has about a
51:15
60% vaccination rate in some parts of that county are as low
51:18
as 37%. So we're going to have to do a lot better than that if
51:21
we're going to control the spread of this and vaccination
51:23
rates have fallen all across country. I think a lot of the
51:27
criticism of COVID vaccinations spilled over into people's
51:30
willingness to take all the vaccines.
51:32
Yeah, hopefully, by the way, nearly eradicated, would you
51:36
say?
51:38
Whose fault was that? What he just said but but the question
51:41
he asked was Chuck Todd specifically said revaccinated.
51:49
So here's here's my overall theory. And that leads into my
51:52
final clip on this. What if it's all bull crap? What if this is
51:57
all just diseases coming to the top because of the severely
52:02
impacted immune systems, and it happened first in the in the gay
52:08
party community, and so they need something to cover it up.
52:12
Well, shit, grab that thing from that stupid Austrian company say
52:15
it's monkey pox. And we'll vaccinate them all. We'll figure
52:18
this out. Oh, now children are getting it. We don't know
52:21
exactly what it could be from bedding. Now. Maybe children are
52:23
vaccinated and are getting it. Maybe that's what the polio
52:26
thing is. And maybe that's what's happening now in India,
52:29
even as the spread of deadly COVID-19 wider still prevails
52:33
across India. The threat of another virus is now threatening
52:38
the masses. According to the latest report, India has
52:41
reported 82 cases of tomato flu or tomato fever since the virus
52:48
was first reported in Kerala on May 6.
52:51
I cannot wait for the tomato flu to come to America. The common
52:55
infectious
52:56
disease targeting mostly children aged one to five and
53:00
immunocompromised adults could be a new variant of hand foot
53:05
and mouth disease. The flu was first identified in careless
53:09
kolam district on May 6, two
53:11
so it's a new form of Foot and Mouth Disease. This is horrible
53:16
and whoever came up with tomato flu.
53:19
This is India India's guide to every disease known to man.
53:23
Yeah,
53:23
but it's immunocompromised adults, it's children who have
53:26
low children one
53:27
to five would very few of which have ever had the vaccine in any
53:31
form. So why did this
53:34
I'm sorry, what children under one to five get tons of vaccines
53:40
have had are taught to admit specifically the COVID vaccine.
53:43
Yes. Oh, it's not something to India's not the same as us what
53:47
should be happening here where the country has over dead give
53:51
65 vaccinations to the kids
53:53
note from one of our producers. Quick comment on Thursday show
53:56
where this came up. We talked about this. The number of
53:59
pediatricians who refuse to see unvaccinated or partially
54:03
vaccinated children is rampant. My wife and I when we decided to
54:06
not fully vaccinate our kids and alter the schedule, found
54:10
ourselves looking for a pediatrician that would work
54:12
with us turns out that where we live and this is in Texas, there
54:15
are only three and the two that take our insurance we're full up
54:19
well you could not get into what we ended up doing was a
54:22
concierge medicine doctor has been fantastic. Yes if you even
54:25
hint at not wanting to vaccinate your kids with everything they
54:28
will ask you to find a different doctor and write you up.
54:34
But is when the doctor police show up?
54:37
Well, the doctors have always been an unwitting participants
54:43
programmed dummies in every single eugenics program. So this
54:47
Why should this be any different? I was watching this
54:50
great documentary about the nurses of the Holocaust. Because
54:53
it was really the nurses who were killing the babies and
54:56
doing all this shit and how that worked in their psyche. You know
54:59
when it so close to the division we have today across the world
55:04
everyone's pissed off at each other and you know it's Brower
55:09
I can't believe we're still doing the show together. Can't
55:11
believe we haven't had a falling out of epic proportions. We've
55:15
had plenty of falling out not of epic proportions and epic
55:19
proportions would be great stuff for the show would be perfect
55:22
for the show.
55:24
All right, definitely give them with that. Okay,
55:26
so we're I think we're done with the medic was enough. Let's
55:29
go and done with that. Yes, thank you.
55:31
Oh, there's one more minute we'll play this. This is a an
55:34
evergreen as far as I'm concerned, but it just came up
55:37
again, the brain eating amoeba. Obviously, that's a
55:44
classic Health
55:45
officials say a child likely died from a rare infection
55:49
caused by a brain eating amoeba after Swiss health officials
55:52
believe the child came into contact with the amoeba on
55:55
Sunday while swimming in the Elkhorn river just west of
55:58
Omaha, Nebraska. But this isn't the first time this tragedy hit
56:02
the Midwest this summer. Last month, a Missouri resident died
56:06
of the same infection likely caused by the amoeba at a lake
56:09
in southwestern Iowa officials closed the lakes beach as a
56:13
precaution for nearly three weeks. People are usually
56:16
infected when water containing the amoeba enters the body
56:19
through the nose, while swimming and lakes and rivers. Other
56:23
sources included tainted tap water symptoms include fever,
56:27
headache, nausea or vomiting. Those symptoms can progress to a
56:30
stiff neck, loss of balance, hallucinations and seizures. The
56:34
CDC says infections are rare, but that those infections are
56:38
overwhelmingly fatal.
56:41
I have one more just this a big pharma thing to mention just for
56:46
the media deconstructionist of which we have many. Do you
56:50
remember a story maybe two weeks ago, it turns out that the
56:55
Alzheimer's medication is bullshit. It doesn't work. The
56:59
FDA advisory board voted 10 to zero against approving it. They
57:05
approved it anyway. And the news kind of came out like oh, this
57:08
thing doesn't work. Do you remember that? Oh, yeah. So what
57:13
are the everybody fell for this? What are the chances it's a
57:17
distraction when you hear or read the headline? Viagra may
57:21
lower Alzheimer's risk do you understand people this is how it
57:26
works? flood the news with that headline forget about the fact
57:30
that shit that we sold you and might have hurt you would didn't
57:33
work. Yeah, that's well, they even talk our man Tucker went
57:39
all in like, Oh, this is a joke. Maybe he didn't can make the
57:43
connection. He didn't make the connection. That this is
57:47
distraction. He participated in it.
57:50
Yeah, the Viagra Viagra. I always pronounce. Are you part
57:54
of the elite set? Nation for Grey Poupon?
57:57
It was like my VR growth grip. My VR growls at mounting time
58:04
Yeah, so
58:05
let's go I do I want to get some Republican Cheney stuff out of
58:09
the way. Okay, including a clip I carried over from last year
58:13
but let's start with some analysis on the Republicans.
58:17
This is from new things. NPR is s MPP. That you're waiting at
58:23
New Tang Dynasty await new paying dynasty. I m er I'm still
58:28
looking for your Oh yes. Analysis. Sonam publicans, okay,
58:33
oh, two clips.
58:35
What does representative Cheney's loss mean for her
58:39
future and this, by the
58:42
way is a guy who says hold on darling. I will be back after I
58:45
take my Geography.
58:48
Geography electors representative Cheney's loss
58:52
mean for her future and that of her of her party.
58:56
It means that Liz Cheney and her party are going to be going
59:00
their separate ways. As you say she didn't just lose this week,
59:03
she lost by nearly 40 points. This after having won her
59:07
current office three times before by big margins. But each
59:11
of those times she was on the Donald Trump Train. And this
59:14
time she not only stepped off that train, she laid down on the
59:17
track in front of it. Now there's been talk of her running
59:20
for president in her present party, but it's hard to see it
59:24
her party is no longer the G O P the grand old party. That
59:29
acronym dates back to the Civil War. The Forge of the party's
59:32
founding. Liz Cheney has been casting herself as a throwback
59:35
to the era of Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses S. Grant. She quoted
59:39
them this week and to the party of Ronald Reagan and the Bush
59:42
family and her own father for Cheney, but today's GOP is
59:48
driven by nationalist and populist activists powered by
59:52
former President Trump and they are not going away
59:56
same time we get what wow did you hear he's he's at the listen
59:59
to his book. Breathing at the end of that statement
1:00:01
by nationalists and populists, activists, empowered by former
1:00:05
President Trump, and they are not going away. He's motional.
1:00:11
And they're not going away.
1:00:12
He said, he drew out this report. He's slightly
1:00:16
hyperventilating for reasons that are not kind of elusive,
1:00:20
will continue. It's almost lists empowered by former President
1:00:24
Trump, and they are not going away.
1:00:27
Same time we get what can almost seem like Hourly updates on
1:00:30
legal issues surrounding former President Trump and people in
1:00:33
his orbit.
1:00:34
Why is that? Do you think because you keep reporting those
1:00:36
Hourly updates, douche? What kind of
1:00:39
danger does this perhaps pose for republicans just a few
1:00:43
months away from elections?
1:00:45
In one sense, we can say it's been a boon for them. It excites
1:00:48
the sense of grievance many of their voters have when it comes
1:00:51
to the federal government. The party needs that going into the
1:00:54
elections this November and beyond. But it's also obviously
1:00:58
a distraction
1:01:00
a rare moment where John Adams humor actually worked. That was
1:01:05
very funny
1:01:06
I gave him the AMY GOODMAN treatment and
1:01:08
with justified my friend justify is good
1:01:15
to know how many people caught that Yeah, go on.
1:01:18
I'm most Republicans would make the troll
1:01:20
room caught it. Everybody heard it, believe me. I'm
1:01:23
most Republicans would much rather have the national
1:01:25
conversation focus on inflation, or the US withdrawal from
1:01:30
Afghanistan just a year ago. Instead, we're talking again
1:01:33
about Trump and the multi front war that various legal
1:01:37
authorities are fighting to hold him accountable for office and
1:01:40
since now, the MAR a Lago search is just the sharp
1:01:45
stopping stop and back it up because he's he says, they're
1:01:49
going after him for all what he did while he was in office and
1:01:53
incense, which I guess is because he's got the documents,
1:01:56
but it makes it sound like these guys are, this is nuts to me. I
1:02:03
mean, this is nuts. Is that Sam Harris guy?
1:02:07
Right, right. Where is the master?
1:02:11
University being the worst the worst corruption ever foisted on
1:02:16
the public. But he wasn't in office during that he wasn't an
1:02:20
office during Trump's steaks. By the way, the wineries doing
1:02:24
fine.
1:02:26
But he may Okay. winery so
1:02:29
corrupts Trump so corrupted before he was President. He made
1:02:33
Trump's ties in China. Oh, no. What is the deal?
1:02:42
I don't imagine that they're setting it up. I think they're
1:02:44
doing a poor job of vilifying the quote other side, but
1:02:48
they're trying it's NPR
1:02:50
and just a year ago. Instead, we're talking again about Trump
1:02:53
and the multi front war that various legal authorities are
1:02:57
fighting to hold him accountable for his actions in office. And
1:03:00
since now, the MAR a Lago search is just the sharpest arrow in
1:03:03
that quiver right now. We heard former Vice President Mike Pence
1:03:07
this week saying our party stands with the men and women
1:03:11
who stand on the thin blue line at the federal and state and
1:03:13
local level. And these attacks on the FBI must stop. That is
1:03:17
the old Republican Party talking is not clear that the new
1:03:21
Republican Party is even listening.
1:03:23
Let me ask you about contrast with the Democrats. Because of
1:03:27
course this week, President Biden signed the inflation
1:03:29
Reduction Act. Are they coming into clearer focus as the
1:03:33
midterms approach?
1:03:35
Yeah, if you were hearing aids,
1:03:36
we're about 80 days out from the midterms, roughly that's at
1:03:40
least two and a half lifetimes away. in political terms, much
1:03:43
is going to happen, much is going to change. Right now,
1:03:45
though. The Democrats are seeing remarkably encouraging polls and
1:03:49
half a dozen toss up Senate races for this fall. So that's
1:03:53
happening in Arizona and Georgia, Pennsylvania, in
1:03:55
Wisconsin, those are states that voted for Joe Biden in 2020. But
1:03:59
we're also seeing competitive races with close polls
1:04:02
persisting in Ohio and North Carolina where Trump won twice.
1:04:06
By the time we get into the baseball playoffs in the fall
1:04:08
campaign season. It's possible that all of this Mar a Lago
1:04:12
search and all of these other cases we'll keep grinding on,
1:04:16
but also possible that people will get bored with all that and
1:04:19
focus on gas prices, grocery prices, Republicans are gearing
1:04:23
up to make immigration and being focused again this fall. We
1:04:26
still expect the house will go Republican in November, if only
1:04:29
because of gerrymandering, but the Senate is quite a different
1:04:32
story. There are individual candidates there who might
1:04:36
matter more than party identity. Senate Republican Leader Mitch
1:04:39
McConnell said as much this week and that may have had had mostly
1:04:43
the purpose of sending a signal to Republican funders to get
1:04:46
busy writing checks.
1:04:47
Oh, okay. So it's all political as usual. Da.
1:04:52
Now, I have I want to remind people that when you start
1:04:55
hearing about these polls, you have to remember that the poll
1:04:58
are bullsh are now largely half owned by the media. And to get
1:05:04
them to advertise more the polls are used as a weapon. I have to
1:05:09
two things. Well, I want to get my Cheney clip out of the way.
1:05:12
Well, this is
1:05:14
this is kind of about the raid. So I'd like to
1:05:17
oh, well, just about Cheney. So let's get this out of the way
1:05:19
and you can do the raid.
1:05:20
So we're talking about the raid right now we're gonna go to
1:05:22
Cheney then come back to the Raiders one understand the
1:05:24
logic.
1:05:25
No, I'm gonna watch that last thing was about Republicans,
1:05:29
Cheney and Ray was mentioned, but I wanted to do a cold reason
1:05:33
for those two clips was deleted. Okay, I got you, which was the
1:05:37
clip that we rarely we do this we discussed after the last
1:05:43
show, because it's a problematic clip, because it's hard to
1:05:49
understand this was one of the analysis from one of these guys,
1:05:53
it's called Cheney called and WTF and I want you people to
1:05:57
listen to this carefully and try to tell me what she's saying
1:06:01
with it in mind that people like former CIA director Hayden, and
1:06:09
others have said that the Republican is not Trump anymore.
1:06:13
Trump is being removed from this argument is the Republicans all
1:06:18
Republicans are bad people, period. Please clip,
1:06:24
a visitor from the future might look back on 2022. And say that
1:06:29
this is the year there were Republicans became a personality
1:06:32
cult
1:06:33
Cheney last night with her father watching from the
1:06:35
audience suggesting this
1:06:37
is a new GOP,
1:06:39
I believe deeply in the principles and the ideals on
1:06:42
which my party was founded. That I love my country more. Okay,
1:06:49
yeah, you didn't you hadn't gotten to it on the last show.
1:06:52
And then you said, listen to this after the show, you're
1:06:55
right. Go for it that this beautiful.
1:06:59
What did she say?
1:07:00
Let's listen to that last bit. Again,
1:07:02
I believe deeply in the principles and the ideals on
1:07:05
which my party was founded. That I love my country more.
1:07:11
So the show the founding, Lincoln here,
1:07:15
a white supremacist I'm, that's what everyone believes the party
1:07:19
is founded on. True or not?
1:07:22
Let's go with the sheep. The party was founded on the
1:07:24
principles of Lincoln and the early Republicans. It stretched
1:07:29
to anti slavery of form of more perfect union, all the rest of
1:07:34
it. Yeah, that's what the foundation was, but she doesn't
1:07:38
like that anymore. She she likes her country more. What is she
1:07:41
talking about it? Is she saying that the Republicans are all
1:07:44
anti American, or they are the founding principles of the
1:07:47
Republican Party, which she was a part of, and so is her father
1:07:51
is bold crap. What is she saying?
1:07:54
I think your your assessment is correct, that there is now a, so
1:08:00
she's clearly in error here with whatever she's trying to
1:08:04
communicate. The idea is to say there's an old GOP and there's a
1:08:09
new GOP and the new GOP. Yeah, there's hardly any. So they they
1:08:15
leave the old GOP there for some people that might still want to
1:08:18
do something with or, you know, that might have enough influence
1:08:21
that they need to use like Mitch McConnell, you know, he's he's
1:08:23
old GOP. So he's tolerable. And the message is going out
1:08:29
everywhere and what you just called this whole idea was
1:08:32
embodied by I don't think the guy matters anymore, but he
1:08:35
still gets on MSNBC, and subsequently sometimes on NBC is
1:08:39
James Carville. James Carville is now an old cranky goat, not
1:08:44
that he wasn't always kind of an old cranky goat. But
1:08:46
oh, he's been a cranky goat. But eventually, it's a good word for
1:08:49
him. It's his wife vintage. Now, in the sense of greatest of all
1:08:53
to know,
1:08:53
that's definitely not he's an old goat, but he spells it out a
1:08:56
little more clearly,
1:08:57
the problem that the Republican Party has is less than Maddix,
1:09:01
the former governor of Georgia said famously, the problem with
1:09:05
the prisons in Georgia is the quality of the inmate. The
1:09:08
problem the Republican Party has is they got really stupid people
1:09:12
that voted in their primaries. And when you have that, you're
1:09:18
gonna get in really stupid people demand to have really
1:09:21
stupid leaders, and that's where the Republican Party is now. So
1:09:25
we pay what huge majorities of revoking party don't believe in
1:09:31
evolution. Right, huge majorities of the Republican
1:09:35
Party followed Donald Trump and whatever that can sound to you,
1:09:39
but somehow know that we pay a greater price for 11% of our
1:09:44
people than they do for 65% of their people. People that
1:09:48
believe that the election was stolen and have a right to to
1:09:52
storm the Capitol, which is a substantial number of people in
1:09:55
the Republican Party are evil. We have our people are kinda
1:10:00
silly that people actually eat racism is evil. Alright,
1:10:04
misogyny is evil. I'm sorry. A pronoun is to me is okay, fine.
1:10:11
I mean, it's it's kind of like, you know what if you want to be
1:10:14
a vegan, thou carry but you want to eat? Not, it's not the same
1:10:19
thing. It's not, you know, not all of it. There's obviously
1:10:24
some very high quality, you know, smart, patriotic
1:10:28
Republicans, but they're not the majority.
1:10:31
So that's kind of the message. It's like, Hey, if you want to,
1:10:35
if you're always nice and precise, if you want your
1:10:37
pronoun to be vegan, because you know, the leftist so with it,
1:10:41
then that's fine with me, but the rest are racist, misogynist,
1:10:45
and borderline terrorists. Back to the rate back to the rate.
1:10:50
First of all, another theory that's out there about the raid,
1:10:52
which I kind of like is that you can read it two ways. One, Trump
1:10:58
knew there might be a mole in the organization, fed some
1:11:01
stupid, crazy shit that he said he would have. The Mole leaked
1:11:05
it, boom, they can identify the Mole. The second theory, the sub
1:11:10
theory to that is, Trump had had someone in the organization who
1:11:14
he knew knew would leak on his behalf. That's all possible. The
1:11:21
final one would be that they planted something but they seem
1:11:24
to have lost the window for that. I don't think that's
1:11:26
that's happened, but what we've been focused on and what you
1:11:29
focused Gitmo nation on was the McCrone documents laughed off by
1:11:35
the sockless soy boys over there at pod save America as a sec
1:11:40
secrets McCrone SEC secrets? Maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe not.
1:11:46
Are you familiar with Lex Friedman? The Lex Friedman
1:11:49
podcast?
1:11:50
Yes, I am. So he Fortunately, it's very
1:11:53
long podcast. It's a very long podcast. It's kind of like a Joe
1:11:57
Rogan. But then completely different.
1:11:59
The problem I'm gonna just stop you here because the problem is
1:12:02
a lot of these. I don't want to just toot our horn.
1:12:07
I just be careful, because I think if I got on his podcast,
1:12:10
it would be good for the show.
1:12:11
I think it would be great for the show. And so we actually had
1:12:15
a donation coming up, or somebody heard you on Megyn.
1:12:19
Kelly.
1:12:19
Yes, I saw the note. How great is that? Whoa, our score score.
1:12:24
I knew I could do it.
1:12:26
So there's a there's a thing about having two equal hosts
1:12:35
that can keep each other in check as best they can. As
1:12:39
opposed to be one guy like if you just did the no agenda show
1:12:42
by yourself. Oh, it would suck. God knows what would be going
1:12:45
on. How
1:12:45
about if you did the no agenda show by yourself?
1:12:48
It'd be dynamite
1:12:54
Okay, of course, of course I got you. You walked right in.
1:13:00
This is this is why we're so good. All right. Yeah. Oh, okay.
1:13:05
Continue. Yes.
1:13:06
You were doing you were doing that you're doing a clip from
1:13:08
the podcast, but I have a clip from Ray that might be
1:13:12
no nine a second. You can't derail derail my rail, anything.
1:13:16
I find my opportunity. No, no, that's not going to happen. You
1:13:20
were going to come play yours.
1:13:21
And I get to play mine afterward. But
1:13:23
you didn't feel different. You didn't finish your thought. On
1:13:27
the Friedman podcast. You didn't know
1:13:29
my thought was that if you hit you, he defected. He does a solo
1:13:33
podcast. Yes, but he hasn't guessed every single Yeah, but
1:13:37
it's always a guest is different guests are not the same as CO
1:13:40
hosts.
1:13:41
Okay, well, anyway, so Lex Friedman. I'm questioning if you
1:13:45
know, he's the guy in the black suit with the black tie the
1:13:47
white shirt. I don't think you were talking about the same guy.
1:13:51
Let me think. Okay, well, whatever. Even maybe I don't
1:13:55
know what what I'm what I'm talking about, though. He's
1:13:57
like,
1:13:57
he's like some MIT high end engineer guy who does the
1:14:00
podcast on the side. He's a professor. And yeah,
1:14:03
and he talks. He's very stilted style. Yeah, he's not very
1:14:07
professional as a podcaster. And yeah, and he's well educated.
1:14:10
Yeah.
1:14:11
Okay. So he has on this guy, I don't know. What's this guy's
1:14:17
name? This guy's name is Andrew Bustamante.
1:14:21
Apparently I saw this particular podcast, obviously you you did.
1:14:26
I saw the Bustamante podcast. Yeah.
1:14:28
Many people have sent this to make this podcast I had
1:14:32
first thing I was going to send it to you myself and I said,
1:14:34
this CIA guy Bustamante. He looks so unlike any normal CIA
1:14:38
guy, but he did they had the talking points he had. The
1:14:43
movement he had he moved the conversation like a CIA guy
1:14:46
would is very, very good lick as a matter of fact, if you didn't
1:14:50
actually visualize it, but when you see him he's got missing
1:14:53
teeth. got long hair. He's very dark and looks like a Santa.
1:14:59
Nice. stuff. He just doesn't fit the role of a office worker and
1:15:04
he gets he was a field guy, but it didn't. How many of those
1:15:07
guys come on podcast? I mean, I find the whole thing peculiar me
1:15:10
but I trusted that he was CIA. I had
1:15:13
the same feelings like you know, I don't know if you can ever
1:15:16
really be ex CIA but anyway, you know, podcasts a great place to
1:15:20
go now for agents and talk to people. So, back to the raid.
1:15:25
Remember, this was the Macron papers. We don't know exactly
1:15:29
what they didn't talk about the McCrone papers. But Friedman
1:15:32
asked something about tell me about other you know about all
1:15:35
the intelligence agencies around the world who is the best? Who
1:15:38
does who does who's great outside of the US? And the
1:15:41
answer was surprising in context of the McCrone papers. So
1:15:44
when it comes to reach China wins that game. Yeah. When it
1:15:47
comes to professional capability. It's it's the CIA,
1:15:51
by far, because budget wise, capability wise weapons system
1:15:56
wise, modern technology wise CIA is the leader around the world,
1:16:00
which is why every other intelligence organization out
1:16:02
there wants to partner with CIA, they want to learn from CIA,
1:16:06
they want to train with CIA, they want to, they want to
1:16:09
partner on Counter Narcotics and counter drug and
1:16:12
counterterrorism and counter weegar. You name it. People want
1:16:15
to partner with CIA, CIA is the most powerful in terms of
1:16:17
capability, and wealth. And then you've got the idea. You've got
1:16:24
tech. So tech alone, meaning corporate espionage, economic
1:16:31
espionage, nothing beats, nothing beats DGSE. And France,
1:16:35
they're the top, they've got a massive budget that almost goes
1:16:38
exclusively to stealing foreign secrets. They're the biggest
1:16:41
threat to the United States, even above Russia and above
1:16:44
China. DGSE. And France is a massively powerful intelligence
1:16:48
organization, but they're so exclusively focused on a handful
1:16:53
of types of intelligence collection, that nobody even
1:16:56
really thinks that they exist.
1:16:57
How about that? What do you think they could get into voting
1:17:00
machines?
1:17:02
That's an age. You know, I will obviously I didn't hear that in
1:17:06
the podcast, they would have clipped it too. Yeah.
1:17:10
Interesting. That's interesting, because it does bring in the
1:17:12
Macron thing.
1:17:13
Yeah. I, honestly, if you had said what are the letters of the
1:17:18
French Secret Service, I would not have known off the top of my
1:17:21
head DGSE. And I certainly would not have known that they were
1:17:25
big in tech. What I didn't know is the last 14 seconds of this.
1:17:29
And then in terms of just terrifying violence, you have
1:17:33
Mossad, Mossad will do anything. Mossad has no qualms doing what
1:17:38
it takes to ensure the survival of every Israeli citizen around
1:17:42
the world sounds
1:17:43
so it sounds credible. What he's saying yes,
1:17:46
very credible. He never mentioned ISI, which kind of No,
1:17:51
no,
1:17:51
no, no, he did. It's earlier it's earlier in the clip. No, he
1:17:54
did. He did mention isI he was he went on and on about MSS. The
1:17:59
Chinese Secret Service, he says, By reach says they have millions
1:18:03
of people all over the world. And he says,
1:18:05
they got it. They're all over the place. We have every bay
1:18:08
area there's tons of
1:18:09
every citizen he says, considers themselves an agent or potential
1:18:14
agent for the MSS. Like when you're asked you do it. And now
1:18:19
hello, Fang. Fang.
1:18:21
Yeah, Fang Fang and Swalwell swallows well. So here here's my
1:18:26
clip. This is the who knew
1:18:27
18 Now what who's 15 Now Swalwell Come on. I'm sorry. I
1:18:37
don't even know you're doing it. This
1:18:39
is troll raid Doc's grade. Doc's knew this. I've never heard this
1:18:44
one document shows it was an FBI special agent who authored the
1:18:48
request for the search warrant. It also shows that an FBI
1:18:51
Special Agent authored the affidavit. Another unsealed
1:18:54
document shows the DOJ was worried about the destruction of
1:18:58
evidence. Last week, former Trump official Kash Patel said
1:19:01
on his epic TV show that while Trump was still in office, he
1:19:05
ordered the declassification of everything related to Russia
1:19:08
gate and the Clinton email investigation. Patel said those
1:19:12
documents were for some reason sent to the National Archives
1:19:15
and never disclosed to the public. He argued that only the
1:19:19
Constitution and constitutional amendments govern presidents. So
1:19:23
the document statutes cited by the DOJ shouldn't apply.
1:19:29
Now, the thing I thought was interesting was a one special
1:19:32
FBI agent behind this whole thing. Yeah, and the belief is
1:19:37
at least by these guys and some others is that Trump accumulated
1:19:40
a bunch of dirt on the FBI. Which target is certain agents
1:19:46
and specific people.
1:19:48
Oh, yeah. One of them. What I heard was that struck was also
1:19:54
working like contract working for the CIA and that they wanted
1:19:57
to quash
1:19:58
Yes, you've actually mentioned that in the last show. Yeah,
1:20:01
which is possible that he's got the goods on that too I don't
1:20:04
know. What are we gonna shake out it's pretty funny in this
1:20:08
kind of entertaining remarks
1:20:11
you know as as our as we as the cricket flour is added to our
1:20:15
food products and the beef products are going away and
1:20:19
things are changing slowly and we should probably talk about
1:20:23
Mayor Pete after the break after I thank you very much and say in
1:20:26

I should, you know, get some fish or meat or god forbid, some
1:23:51
chicken, you know, but I don't want the pressure. Just tell
1:23:55
them your flexitarian it will be fine, don't you think? John? Do
1:23:59
you think that that will be acceptable?
1:24:01
Yeah, it's acceptable to me.
1:24:04
Thank you very much, Tom to Neil, who brought us the artwork
1:24:07
for flexitarianism lot of discussion, post production on
1:24:11
which art piece of art to choose. This was the Cricut all
1:24:15
bug shortening in the vein of Crisco after we deconstructed
1:24:20
how Crisco came to be and more importantly, what the future of
1:24:22
Crisco is. Now there were several there were a couple of
1:24:25
these
1:24:26
actually, first of all, let's go to the desk go to the elephant
1:24:29
in the room which was the its its its competitor, which is Sir
1:24:33
net Ned's Yes. trickbot. Yeah. Cricket grease can which was
1:24:40
rejected by me largely because it was you know, and it's just
1:24:46
some little thing it's a very minor thing because it's a
1:24:49
better idea I like cricket grease on the label I like it
1:24:53
does still has the still not there not neither one of a map
1:24:56
to around cylinder two Antonio didn't for sure it's just flat
1:25:02
and it's your shit she didn't map but you don't have time
1:25:04
you're doing Photoshop you're trying to get a good art to try
1:25:07
the got a family you only have 15 minutes or so to do these art
1:25:11
pieces but the problem with with net or net nets was it wasn't
1:25:17
centered it was like the kid was it bothered you and bother you
1:25:21
to know and it was like it wasn't what and it shouldn't
1:25:24
bother you because you're the most free CD guy yeah so so it
1:25:30
was just like it was just turned for some reason and just like
1:25:34
Why
1:25:34
Why was Bonacci bib
1:25:38
so I got kicked off the other one also the CANS fits in the
1:25:43
frame a little better doesn't go into the logo and cheap curved
1:25:47
or logo is good she did a better job.
1:25:50
I remember it wasn't much else well i capitalist agenda agenda
1:25:55
did the CDC building blocks which I thought was creative,
1:25:58
but you looked at it and went man, which I understand it's
1:26:01
like ants, okay, it wasn't you know, it's like, just was okay.
1:26:05
Another one so boobs. Uncle cave bear. No, that's all out. You
1:26:09
like we weren't
1:26:10
doing any Brian Stelter materialists. You know you're
1:26:14
gonna put that guy on our cover.
1:26:16
Now we want people to listen to the show not be repelled.
1:26:19
See him? Oh, he's doing too much. Oh, gosh. They finally got
1:26:22
to guess is Brian Stelter.
1:26:26
I know I will listen. Hey, maybe we screwed it up. You were
1:26:30
somewhat enamored with certain net Ned's hunter in the basement
1:26:34
hunter are you there? Which I nicked for context. I just
1:26:38
thought no one could really get that
1:26:39
No, I was hurt. No, that's not true. I mentioned specifically I
1:26:43
don't like those shouting boxes. I don't like the little bubbles.
1:26:47
I don't like Oh, you're right. I don't like to voice bubble. I
1:26:51
don't like I stand
1:26:52
corrected. That's what you said. I knew there was something about
1:26:55
it. stand corrected.
1:26:59
They're called there's a name for that device. Let's call it
1:27:03
Gerson can anything else? No, that wasn't it was very there
1:27:09
were some crudity. Just a nice breasts put in there but it
1:27:14
really Hey, did
1:27:15
you did you get a lot of people emailing you about the crudity
1:27:18
from Dr. Oz?
1:27:19
No, I got not one note. I got
1:27:21
notes and said Come on, man. Don't you guys understand this
1:27:25
carpet bagger from Jersey you know he's like oh crude attai
1:27:28
Like you and John. You know, you've got refined palates. I'm
1:27:31
like hold on a second. Is this someone who I think might be a
1:27:36
Republican or someone I mean, I have no interest in being any
1:27:39
type of party member of anything. I don't give a shit
1:27:42
about Dr. Oz. I find the whole I find most political stories
1:27:46
annoying. But you played the clip and I happen to guess the
1:27:51
crudity might be the issue. But the message I got from I think
1:27:55
Republican voters who emailed me was was kind of went like that,
1:28:00
like well, you know, it's like crudity, you guys might know
1:28:03
clearly they know or crudity is and like so do these Republicans
1:28:07
themselves think that the majority of Republicans are
1:28:11
idiots that they have never heard of Cru detai that this is
1:28:15
not a known word in flyover state. I didn't go to college by
1:28:20
the way. You know, it's it felt kind of like Jesus but
1:28:23
you lived in Europe. You lived in Europe, they eat crudities in
1:28:26
Europe and French restaurants
1:28:28
know what they call it over. There's Vorteile Jews just cares
1:28:32
for
1:28:32
kids. There's a good one for cultures
1:28:39
now it just felt like gee, you know it's like if it's not
1:28:43
Cheney trying to break up the Republican Party doing to
1:28:46
yourselves ish. Maybe it maybe I'm
1:28:50
being overly sad. Maybe they're Democrats that were bitching.
1:28:53
Oh, this is totally possible.
1:28:55
I couldn't it was just like cheese. I mean, is it really
1:28:58
that? Because it has a French sound like entrepreneur is hard
1:29:02
to remember what the entrepreneur
1:29:04
your big your big phony.
1:29:07
Thank you very much. Once again, to heck who was it now? I've
1:29:16
already forgotten who did kneel that Tanzania. There you go.
1:29:20
Thank you, Taunton. Do all the vortices she does. Yeah, that's
1:29:23
why I'm giving her Vorteile choose. Anybody can play along
1:29:27

1:29:29

1:29:50
of the producers who keep this show on the air. We asked for
1:29:54
time talent treasure, I reiterate when it comes to
1:29:57
treasure you for $5 A month may be a big deal to you. That is
1:30:03
just as appreciated as any other donation. It should be you you
1:30:07
need to feel good about it because you put yourself out you
1:30:09
put as much value back as you could. Sometimes it's time
1:30:13
sometimes it's talent. But twice during a show we'd like to thank
1:30:16
the people who came in with the treasure kicking it off with
1:30:18
Edward faults. With $1,000 from Frankenmuth, Michigan. And right
1:30:24
off the bat, it's a switcheroo switch room for Zack McClellan.
1:30:30
Now sir Zack of fudge do lock. Good to know who introduced me
1:30:36

1:30:59
across the bay right across the bay. Yes, right. Benjamin netus
1:31:03
is $333.33 San Francisco. was on Twitter reading a tweet from
1:31:10
Elon, someone commented on it. Please read add hidden exposed
1:31:14
comment plus my response. Well, I
1:31:17
didn't thanks for that.
1:31:18
The instruction set I didn't realize that I just put it in
1:31:23
the note. Just tell us what it was brought. I'm not going now.
1:31:28
Complicated. Complicated for it. I got a spreadsheet on this
1:31:32
thing here and play my new Detroit meet up next week. Are
1:31:35
you in local one? Are you doing your own Detroit meetups. We
1:31:38
don't have any information here. Jingles climate gate chemtrails.
1:31:42
By the way, we'll go look at that later. Climate gate
1:31:45
chemtrails. Floor What's this floor at a floor? I didn't make
1:31:50
cup. Oh, and then he's got a URL here for something. Don't know
1:31:56
what
1:31:58
that is. That's the link. That's the that's the link to Elon
1:32:02
stuff. Oh, good. I know I'm getting the jingles together is
1:32:21
fluoride in? Alright, so here's Elon Musk's tweets still so
1:32:28
grateful. And it's a story about Billy Eilish and okay, we'll put
1:32:33
that in the show notes. Everyone can look at that it doesn't jump
1:32:35
out as being hilarious or spectacular at this moment to me
1:32:39
as Elon ever. I mean, he does some good comebacks like a
1:32:43
counter puncher might do. But has he ever done anything
1:32:46
straight out? Funny?
1:32:47
Yes, he has subpoenaed. The ad companies that Twitter uses. No,
1:32:54
that is he says that there's 65 million more spam accounts than
1:32:58
Twitter admits to so I think that's a pretty funny move by
1:33:01

1:43:04
yeah, heat wave in China.
1:43:11
I was prepared for a lot but not for heat wave in China. Let me
1:43:15
see is Oh, you got a whole bunch here.
1:43:17
Excellent. Not a China. Yeah,
1:43:19
because they listen to heatwave in China. This is I think, NPR,
1:43:23
NPR, NPR. And I want after the desert for short clips. I want
1:43:29
you to tell me what's wrong with this picture. After the this is
1:43:33
done the scored heat wave in China,
1:43:35
not a China, where people have been dealing with record
1:43:38
breaking temperatures since early July. Heat is so severe
1:43:41
some cities in southwestern China cut power to all factories
1:43:45
this week and be our Beijing correspondent Emily Fang is on
1:43:49
the line. Emily, thanks so much for being with us.
1:43:51
Thanks, God. Thanks for having me.
1:43:53
Help us understand how severe This heat is.
1:43:55
It's pretty bad. China's been in this continuous wave officially
1:43:59
for the last 68.
1:44:01
Is this an NPR report or should you stringer what it was he's
1:44:05
very regular
1:44:06
stays, which is the longest heat wave on record since China's
1:44:10
National Climate Center started keeping records back in 1961.
1:44:14
More than 240 thesis weeks that they forecasted temperatures
1:44:18
above 104 degrees Fahrenheit, pretty hot. The country's issued
1:44:23
its first National Drought alert in nine years. And it's pushed
1:44:27
places like Central Hubei province, for example, to pretty
1:44:30
extreme methods. They're so desperate for rainfall that they
1:44:33
said this week. They're starting to seed clouds, which is this
1:44:36
experimental method where you shoot metal up into the clouds.
1:44:39
So you think you might have rain?
1:44:42
Oh, you mean like a geoengineering? Cloud seeding?
1:44:46
Drone? Hold
1:44:47
on a second. Let's just listen to what she said. She said
1:44:51
experimental method which is when I was a kid, back in the
1:44:57
90s during that be international GF they were doing it all the
1:45:00
time in California, they use silver salts. And it was always
1:45:04
a salt they didn't shoot metal into the clouds. Hey, here's
1:45:08
some lead. Let's take Yeah, but
1:45:10
But hold on a second. Maybe they're doing something else or
1:45:12
under the guise.
1:45:15
Key doesn't know what she's talking about is the point.
1:45:19
Well, she doesn't know what it is, is not an experimental
1:45:21
method has been used for eons. And it's not in you don't shoot
1:45:26
metal up in the cloud. That way. Everyone who owns a shotgun in
1:45:28
California can make it rain. Just boom, there you go. It's
1:45:32
some lead. So this is irksome to know and to medium for somebody
1:45:38
who doesn't it never heard of such a thing. But it Okay, let's
1:45:40
continue.
1:45:42
There's and it's pushed places like Central Hubei province, for
1:45:46
example, to pretty extreme methods. They're so desperate
1:45:49
for rainfall that they said this week, they're starting to seed
1:45:52
clouds, which is this experimental method where you
1:45:54
shoot metal up into the clouds, so you think you might have
1:45:58
rain?
1:45:58
Okay, just didn't need to play that again. So you could hear
1:46:01
her say it. Are we ready for the second clip?
1:46:03
Yeah, go. It's not proven, but this is how much they need
1:46:06
water. Because the lack of water is even affecting the power
1:46:09
supply and other places. a province called Sichuan in the
1:46:12
Southwest is about 80% reliant on hydroelectric power, except
1:46:16
they don't have rain.
1:46:19
Okay, there's another one just shows you.
1:46:21
Without Rain. You can't have a lake I guess.
1:46:25
Without Rain. You can't have a hydroelectric power. I guess I
1:46:29
never heard this. You knew that you knew this. So okay, so now
1:46:34
we're, why is this Why is NPR put this crap on?
1:46:39
Because they're sponsored by the Bill and Melinda Gates
1:46:41
Foundation for the climate change chapter Hulu.
1:46:45
Actually, the amount of money that Bill and Melinda Gates
1:46:47
gives to NPR, which I think I have the numbers here because it
1:46:52
was printed out. Last year, somebody came out and
1:46:54
documented. This is like $30 million.
1:46:58
You consider that to be a lot or not a lot?
1:47:01
Seems like a lot to me. We don't make that. Where's our money?
1:47:05
Okay, let's go.
1:47:06
Again, back to the podcast.
1:47:09
This is the time when the demand for energy is much higher,
1:47:11
because people are relying on Air Conditioning to keep cool.
1:47:14
So this week's tribe that province, which has more than 80
1:47:17
million people decided it was cutting off electricity to most
1:47:21
factories for about seven days. So they can ensure people would
1:47:24
have power at home and the power grids wouldn't overload.
1:47:28
And that can't be good news for the world's supply chain
1:47:31
cabinet.
1:47:31
It is more bad news because a number of major multinationals
1:47:35
have factories in Sichuan, there's an electronics component
1:47:38
maker. And in Foxconn, there are American companies like Intel
1:47:41
and Texas Instruments, which are factories there that are highly
1:47:45
reliant on stable power. And these factories together make
1:47:48
important components for our cars and electronics. So even
1:47:52
though the power is just out for a week, it's going to take them
1:47:54
far longer to restart production once again, when the power turns
1:47:58
back on. And that's only going to make this ongoing global
1:48:01
semiconductor shortage worse. On top of that, China's already
1:48:05
suffering from economic pressures because it has these
1:48:07
on and off IQ and COVID restrictions. And this heat wave
1:48:11
does not help. And you see this impact already in the most
1:48:14
recent economic statistics for the country. They came out last
1:48:17
week, they're pretty dire. They show that consumer spending
1:48:20
missed all forecasts the official youth unemployment is
1:48:23
nearly 20%. Unofficially, it's probably much higher, and home
1:48:28
sales have fallen. Oh, man, how
1:48:30
come they never say that about American numbers? Unofficially,
1:48:33
inflation is probably much higher.
1:48:36
No, they never do that. Let's go to the last clip. And then I'm
1:48:38
at an ad to ask Adam question. What's wrong with this picture?
1:48:43
What we're seeing this summer in China is likely going to become
1:48:45
more and more common. There was a report from the Massachusetts
1:48:49
Institute of Technology in 2018. That forecast a big part of
1:48:53
northern China could become unlivable by the end of the
1:48:56
century because of extreme heat. And that conversely means that
1:48:59
flash flooding is becoming more and more common because the
1:49:02
ground is not able to absorb water when it does rain. And
1:49:06
this week alone in China, there are two flash floods that killed
1:49:08
22 people.
1:49:10
There's Emily Feng, thanks so much.
1:49:13
So the question is, what's wrong with this picture?
1:49:16
Huh? Yeah. What's wrong with this picture?
1:49:18
I'm not sure. John, You've stumped me.
1:49:21
Where is the blame on global warming?
1:49:26
Oh, goodness, you're so right. This was what Wasn't it a little
1:49:29
bit in that last clip about see that really hold on, hold on.
1:49:33
Let me just listen to
1:49:34
what we're seeing this summer in China is likely going to become
1:49:36
more and more common. There was report from the Massachusetts
1:49:40
Institute of Technology in 2018. That forecast a big part of
1:49:44
northern China could become unlivable by the end of this
1:49:47
century because of extreme heat. And that conversely means that
1:49:51
flash flooding is becoming more and more common because the
1:49:53
ground is not able to absorb water when it does rain. And
1:49:57
this week alone in China, there were two flash floods. No,
1:49:59
you're right. people
1:50:01
perish Emily Fang, thanks for
1:50:02
Wow, she should be fired immediately are kind of
1:50:07
missing the point. Oh, there was no mention whatsoever on global
1:50:13
warming because it was report on China and China already told
1:50:17
Biden to stuff it so far as their cooperation with their
1:50:21
global warming bullcrap. And it would reflect poorly on Biden to
1:50:25
remind people of this so they just robbed a taco. Wow. I think
1:50:32
this was just an attempt to cover for Biden. Because if you
1:50:37
recall, when the Taiwan visit took place with Nancy Pelosi,
1:50:40
the Chinese were so hurt. They said we're not even going to
1:50:43
cooperate in a golden global warming anymore. I did have to
1:50:46
remind people of that if they brought global warming up in
1:50:50
that report. Yep. And you know, they were itching to
1:50:55
then that was NPR New Tang Dynasty.
1:50:58
That was NPR not new tank that no New Tang Dynasty doesn't
1:51:02
know. This was NPR refused. Normally NPR is all over. They
1:51:07
always say all global warming global warming, but this time
1:51:10
they didn't. I just found that fascinating.
1:51:12
You know, all the reports about Texas. No doubt we have. We have
1:51:17
a drought issue. But they've really been hyping it up about
1:51:21
all it's so horrible. It's a triple digit for 50 days, blah,
1:51:26
blah. If you remember in 2010 I did my first meet up in Austin,
1:51:34
Texas. I happen to remember the temperature that day. 112
1:51:38
degrees in the shade. Yeah. And it was annual and we had an
1:51:42
outdoor meet up with 33 people. I remember it. Well. I moved to
1:51:46
Texas very soon after that, despite the climate change,
1:51:49
clearly telling me to stay in California. And for the next two
1:51:54
years, I lived in a house that had a view over Lake Travis,
1:51:59
which there were no boats in Lake Travis, you were not
1:52:02
allowed to have your boat because the water was at the
1:52:04
bottom. The boat houses were 50 feet above the waterline. But
1:52:11
no, this somehow was the worst summer ever. A little bit of a
1:52:15
little bit of life experience. A little bit of observation goes
1:52:19
along with 2012 was the same 2012 was actually worse than
1:52:23
2010. And all the good old boys around here will say we'll tell
1:52:26
you what I remember 2012 So yes, I do. I was here some
1:52:32
that's typical. Now that you mentioned Texas, so I do have to
1:52:36
play the Texas clip. Are we favorite? Are we still on
1:52:39
climate change? No, no, we're off a climate change.
1:52:42
I was just gonna say one more thing about climate change. No,
1:52:45
we'll pick it up in a minute. Okay, Texas. What do you got
1:52:47
about
1:52:47
Ty? Well, climate change might well, I don't care. Don't worry
1:52:51
this it'll fit this to me. I have to I never was a big fan of
1:52:55
Abbe. Glen Abbott. But I have to say Gregory.
1:52:58
But Glenn is good. We'll take Lana. Glen. Glen up Oh, on
1:53:07
Abbott and Costello. So Abbott. I really love this guy now
1:53:11
because I just think and I don't know why other places don't do
1:53:14
this idea of busing the migrants to Washington DC and New York
1:53:20
City on the Texas dime is gotta be money well worth spending
1:53:25
more migrants, sorry asylum seekers. I'm sorry. It was so
1:53:29
well timed for migrants and asylum seekers are being bussed
1:53:32
northward from the US Mexico border. It's embarrassing me
1:53:36
held reports some city officials are trying to put a clear plan
1:53:40
in place as they strain to accommodate them. In New York
1:53:44
City this week, people packed into buses pulled into the port
1:53:47
authority,
1:53:48
hungry thirsty. Some with medical conditions.
1:53:52
Immigrant Affairs Commissioner Manuel Castro says the city has
1:53:55
a new interagency plan in place to provide services including
1:53:58
schooling for children, nonprofits and volunteers have
1:54:02
largely been stepping in to help those fleeing crime and poverty
1:54:05
back home only to face uncertainty and homelessness
1:54:09
once they arrive. Texas Governor Greg Abbott started moving the
1:54:12
migrants in April, he says to highlight the Biden
1:54:15
administration's border failures, the majority more than
1:54:18
7000 have been bussed to Washington DC, where the mayor
1:54:22
has renewed have rejected requests for the National Guard
1:54:25
to help.
1:54:26
Yeah, this is this is quite humorous. Actually, we wouldn't
1:54:33
typically do this but I do have a report on this as well from
1:54:36
New York from ABC wn. I think it's a New Yorker station. Tip
1:54:41
and I wouldn't play it because you just kind of gave the info
1:54:44
it'd be fun to compare ABC and NPR to the reporting on this.
1:54:48
See how much is the same and what is additional if anything
1:54:51
tonight migrants seeking asylum arrive at all hours in New York
1:54:54
City officials are racing to come up with a plan to help care
1:54:58
for them
1:54:58
with open 13 boathouse to increase our capacity. And we're
1:55:04
looking at every single option that we have.
1:55:07
Official say more than 6000 have come already in the last three
1:55:10
months early this morning, two buses from Texas pulling into
1:55:14
the port authority in Manhattan carrying 78 people, among them
1:55:17
at least 15 children, one just two months old, and a pregnant
1:55:22
woman days from delivery. She was taken to a hospital.
1:55:26
Nightline meeting 18 year old amaro Just after he got here
1:55:29
last week, Chico, I'm still a boy who's very young, I hope to
1:55:34
have better opportunities here. He says it took him two months
1:55:38
to reach Texas from Venezuela. With more and more children on
1:55:42
those buses today, city officials announced a program
1:55:45
called Project Open Arms to try and quickly integrate some 1000
1:55:49
migrant children into New York City public schools, simplifying
1:55:52
the enrollment process and calling for more bilingual
1:55:55
teachers. Officials also had a message for Texas Governor Greg
1:55:58
Abbott, who has been sending the buses on a one way trip without
1:56:01
coordinating with officials at their destinations.
1:56:04
We're asking the governor to please stop and let all of us
1:56:07
work together to figure out how we can best provide the
1:56:11
assistance that these human beings need.
1:56:14
Stop Glenn Abbott. So this little, little kicker to this
1:56:19
what you heard in the beginning about what the plan is in New
1:56:22
York and this is a well known plan and in cities that don't
1:56:26
have their shit together. Austin did the same thing. What are
1:56:28
they going to do?
1:56:29
Well, tonight the mayor of New York City issuing an emergency
1:56:32
solicitation seeking bids for up to 5000 hotel rooms and other
1:56:36
facilities that can accommodate and provide services to these
1:56:38
migrants on just a 24 hour notice Lindsay still
1:56:41
need more hotel rooms Mola. Thank you more hotel rooms. This
1:56:45
is this is it. This is universal basic income for the hotel
1:56:48
industry, which has been wrecked. Of course, tourism has
1:56:51
wrecked everywhere. And now they're going to wreck these
1:56:54
hotels and allow me to tell you how this works with asylum
1:56:59
hotels. There's many examples but the Netherlands was a story
1:57:03
just this past week. My asylum seekers as they're called, they
1:57:09
are basically coming from all this has been going on for for
1:57:12
12 years have been just letting anybody into this very small
1:57:16
country. And they put them up in and now of course it's from it
1:57:20
used to be from Syria recently. And then now it's obviously from
1:57:24
Ukraine and, but that people are from all over. And a lot of the
1:57:27
Muslim asylum seekers are put in hotels. And they're now rioting.
1:57:34
They're rioting because they don't like the breakfast and
1:57:36
lunch. Listen, we don't like this Dutch breakfast. You give
1:57:39
us you give us bread and cheese. And, and bread and jam. It's not
1:57:45
culturally appropriate. So just give us money and we'll do it
1:57:50
ourselves. But of course you can't cook in a hotel room. So
1:57:53
this has now become a problem and this the fighting it's it
1:57:57
doesn't work out. This is so distressing. And a lot of these
1:58:02
people they you ask them, yeah, Joe Biden said come on is good.
1:58:06
We'll hook you up. We'll give you a phone. We'll give you a
1:58:08
debit card. It's so so wrong, inhumane just a holes. And so
1:58:19
the rest of
1:58:19
the while you're talking about I got two more clips to play about
1:58:23
migrants. This is a different oriented This is about Sri
1:58:27
Lanka. Sri Lanka is a collapsed state. Yeah. And there's
1:58:33
something in this these subs just kind of got my attention.
1:58:36
So I hope they're not dead interesting, but these people
1:58:39
are trying to escape Sri Lanka. This reminds me of something Ron
1:58:43
Paul said, Not rampolla Ron Paul said some years ago, but play
1:58:47
leaving Sri Lanka WTF.
1:58:50
And more from Sri Lanka as anarchy grip the capital city of
1:58:53
Colombo in May a couple gambled their family's life savings on a
1:58:58
two week nearly 3000 mile voyage with their two young sons. The
1:59:02
decision ended in ruin. This Sri
1:59:05
Lankan Navy vessel is looking for potential human smuggling
1:59:08
boats. As more people look to escape the crisis hit country
1:59:12
patrols along the coast have become more regular. They check
1:59:16
this fishing boat. It's carrying nothing more than nuts and fish
1:59:20
leaving the country unofficially is illegal in Sri Lanka that
1:59:23
people have increasingly been willing to take that risk
1:59:28
leaving the country is illegal.
1:59:32
Yeah, that's how you do it man. Lock everybody down.
1:59:35
This way. Remember when Ron Paul said you know you build a fancy
1:59:39
dude. You know that is not the key people asked to keep you in.
1:59:43
wishes to your what happened in East Germany is a good example.
1:59:48
I just found that distressing. These poor people are stuck
1:59:51
there and they can't. They can't get out. transport themselves
1:59:56
out is illegal. Now. You got to stay here and suffer. I mean
2:00:00
apart there's a part two of that clip. That's pretty much the
2:00:03
point.
2:00:03
I don't I don't mind listening to it. nearly 1000
2:00:06
people have been arrested this year to date, almost a record
2:00:09
breaking number pneumococcus has been is among them. In late May,
2:00:14
they boarded a 30 foot boat under the cover of night with
2:00:18
her two teenage sons. They paid their life savings of $1,400 for
2:00:22
the one way trip to Australia, but they didn't. And we only had
2:00:27
sea water to bathe with and using the toilet, we couldn't
2:00:30
use fresh water because then we could have run out of it. We
2:00:33
suffered from hunger unlike ever before. Not even in our
2:00:36
childhood, we suffer such hunger, then we couldn't sleep
2:00:40
because the boat was rocking so much. Their ship suffered a fuel
2:00:44
problem. And eventually it was intercepted by the Australian
2:00:47
coast guard. The family was sent back to Sri Lanka. Many new
2:00:51
faces the charge of leaving the country from an unauthorized
2:00:54
port, her husband is accused of an additional charge of
2:00:58
assisting in the logistics of the journey, and now awaits
2:01:01
trial in prison.
2:01:04
assisting in the logistics of the journey is also a crime.
2:01:08
It's also
2:01:09
incredibly sad. This is Part ESG part poor monetary policy,
2:01:17
creating too much money. You think that's you think that's
2:01:20
funny, or bad? Check out Venezuela,
2:01:24
if you need proof of how bad it is in Venezuela right now. Look
2:01:27
at this purse, this person is made entirely of the bills of
2:01:31
the Venezuelan currency, the Bolivar inflation is so high
2:01:35
that this money is now completely worthless. And so my
2:01:37
friend Jorge over here, has gathered a ton of this stuff and
2:01:41
turn it into commodities into purses into sculptures
2:01:46
is worse than it sounds and it sounds pretty bad.
2:01:50
The country's inflation rate will rise to 1,000,000%.
2:01:58
So this guy is selling purses on the street, that he's that he's
2:02:01
made basket weaving style out of old bills from yesterday. I
2:02:06
mean, that's that's done it. I mean, of course, there's $1
2:02:09
economy a black market dollar economy in Venezuela 1,000,000%.
2:02:16
That's done, right. It's like, what what's next?
2:02:19
Yeah, it's a failed economy with the least but how
2:02:23
will people eat? How what's going to happen? How will it
2:02:26
goes to a barter
2:02:27
economy when that happens? That's pretty much goes to a
2:02:32
pure barter economy unless you have dollars.
2:02:34
So things are falling apart here in the United States,
2:02:38
particularly when it comes to our transportation system. In
2:02:41
addition to that, the climate change I would like to read this
2:02:46
to you, I can just it's the headline. In Australia, here it
2:02:52
is. Bank Australia has announced starting 2025 He will no longer
2:02:58
finance personal loans for combustion engine automobiles.
2:03:04
So you so unless you save up and buy an old clunker, or you're
2:03:09
willing to finance a Tesla or some other battery car, you're
2:03:13
not going to have one. That's how they do it to you when it
2:03:16
comes to flying. And we've had some issues here in the United
2:03:19
States, mainly because pilots and aircrew have been treated
2:03:24
like shit for many many years the whole business as a
2:03:27
government bailout business the government de facto really
2:03:30
operates most of these airlines. And then when it came towards
2:03:35
the came to vaccination status, a lot of certainly pilots said
2:03:39
you know what, screw you I'm not risking my career. I'm not
2:03:41
risking my health. I don't trust that it's not safe. And they
2:03:44
were all dismissed and now they either won't come back or
2:03:47
they're saying you know, pay me right down to where I think was
2:03:50
Delta Airlines, they their negotiations, they've even
2:03:53
negotiated personal Tumi luggage for every pilot, that that's how
2:03:59
pissed off they are. But it doesn't matter because Mayor
2:04:01
Pete, he's got a plan.
2:04:05
Tonight, the Department of Transportation putting Airlines
2:04:08
on notice saying fix your problems or new rules are coming
2:04:11
Secretary Pete Buttigieg, writing to America's 10 largest
2:04:15
carriers that the level of disruption Americans have
2:04:17
experienced this summer is unacceptable. Noting that in the
2:04:21
first six months of this year, roughly 24% of domestic flights
2:04:25
have been delayed and 3%. canceled,
2:04:28
the Secretary has had to take a step back.
2:04:30
Let's rethink where we are in the industry and actually get
2:04:34
back to scheduling an operation that you can actually
2:04:37
accommodate the airlines lobbying group not staying
2:04:40
quiet, responding that the pandemic has wreaked havoc on
2:04:43
all businesses, saying industries across the economy
2:04:47
are facing a range of challenges, including a tight
2:04:50
labor market and the government tonight with direct requests for
2:04:53
airlines to provide meal vouchers for delays of three
2:04:56
hours or more and lodging accommodations for passengers.
2:05:00
Who must wait overnight at an airport because of disruptions
2:05:03
within the carrier's control.
2:05:06
These people are so disconnected you can't even get a hotel room.
2:05:11
overnight so many flights are canceled. They
2:05:15
I have a report from New Tang Dynasty and the same topic with
2:05:19
Buddha judge. It's slightly different in the way they took
2:05:23
it. But they they also left out the people who quit because of
2:05:27
the forced vaccinations. And worse they were vaccination
2:05:32
mandates it but they left it out of their report too, but they
2:05:35
take a little different perspective.
2:05:37
According to FlightAware. More than 40,000 flights have been
2:05:40
canceled since June Buda judge says the Department of
2:05:43
Transportation is going to publish an online dashboard
2:05:48
where travelers can quickly and easily get all the relevant info
2:05:52
they need for their flights, including cancellations and
2:05:54
delays. The Federal Aviation Administration says some of the
2:05:57
flight problems have been caused by staffing problems at air
2:06:01
traffic control facilities.
2:06:03
I mean, I'm not gonna play my 11 six second clip kicker which was
2:06:07
the same thank you beautiful. It's another dashboard. Wait,
2:06:11
let me see what ABC called it
2:06:12
so what are you owed if an airline cancels or delays your
2:06:16
flight? Well, the Department of Transportation now says it's
2:06:18
going to launch a website in the next few weeks making that
2:06:21
crystal clear no matter which airline you fly
2:06:24
I like dashboard much better.
2:06:26
They should yeah, dashboard dashboard. Yellow 1980s
2:06:31
Yeah, yeah, it's the same people who brought you the Obamacare
2:06:35
website no doubt but this is so so wrong at putting it all onto
2:06:41
the airlines this is not this is only going to worsen the
2:06:43
situation. People are now going to be demanding their vouchers
2:06:47
and where's my hotel and is going to come to blows people
2:06:50
are gonna get hurt. And meanwhile, meanwhile, the elites
2:06:55
of the world not you and me not you we're all scum. Know the
2:06:59
elites. They get this you're starting with
2:07:00
the breaking news from American Airlines. They are betting on
2:07:03
supersonic travel to carriers agreed to purchase 20 supersonic
2:07:06
over two airplanes from a boom supersonic. The deal is the
2:07:10
second firm order in the last two years for boom, the company
2:07:13
is still years away from building its first commercial
2:07:16
airplane. Boom says the overture jet will fly as fast as 1300
2:07:20
miles per hour. Cutting international flight times by
2:07:23
about half American Airlines has the option to purchase another
2:07:26
40 overtures in the future. Boom we'll build the planes at a
2:07:30
plant in Greensboro the first model is expected to roll out in
2:07:33
2025 with first flight in 2026
2:07:36
Yeah, your bugs in your stand up seat you stupid Surf's Up here
2:07:43
we go crews now it's just doubled in the shop where we are
2:07:51
now going oh look down there you can see apply those slave
2:07:55
aircraft that's right number those days people want to fly
2:07:58
like that. Enjoy and do our short trip to Paris that's
2:08:04
what's gonna be the the actual
2:08:06
sounds about right I think that's exactly what you'll be
2:08:08
hearing the quality might be a little better because it's
2:08:10
expensive. It's very probably not
2:08:13
gonna be very similar to that
2:08:15
sounds the same. I have 219 70 throwback clips.
2:08:19
Yay. Yay. All right. Do we need a time back machine do we need
2:08:23
we have a time back machine? We have specific it's not clips
2:08:27
from there it's clips about them. So no, you don't know it's
2:08:31
not a it's not a true old clip, which I do have in the back in
2:08:35
the in the in the archive I
2:08:37
was just thinking maybe just like one of those.
2:08:41
Maybe just because UK 1973. This is a couple of about the
2:08:46
inflation now and then
2:08:48
soaring energy prices a cost of living crisis and rising work
2:08:52
unrest history looks like it is repeating itself in Britain as
2:08:56
the country grapples with choices the best similarities to
2:09:00
that of the 1970s. So how did Britain handle the crisis back
2:09:06
then? Energy rationing marked then Prime Minister Edward heeds
2:09:09
tenure, the organization of our Petroleum Exporting Countries
2:09:14
had declared an oil embargo, forcing his government to
2:09:17
consider some extreme proposals. This footage from December 1973
2:09:23
shows customers being led by workers with gas lamps in
2:09:26
darkened stores on London's main shopping street. Britain today
2:09:32
is unlikely to face such prolonged blackouts. But experts
2:09:36
say anything that threatens a world of contactless payments
2:09:40
and computerized hills will add anxiety over the country's
2:09:43
ability to withstand social and economic shocks. consumer price
2:09:49
inflation peaked in 1975 at 24.5%. And it was nice until the
2:09:55
1990s that it fell sustainably into low single digits like 50
2:10:00
years ago, Britain to date faces double digit inflation. The Bank
2:10:04
of England expects to see inflation exceeding 13%. This
2:10:08
October, which would be the highest rate in 42 years.
2:10:15
Yeah, it's a mess over there. And I'd love to hear clip two
2:10:18
and then we can talk about what's what is expected to
2:10:21
happen.
2:10:23
Okay. Political Analyst Peter Kellner was a Sunday Times
2:10:27
journalist in the 1970s,
2:10:30
that there is potentially a double parallel between Britain
2:10:34
today and Britain in 1973. there abouts, in that the inflation
2:10:40
which took off took off in Britain in 1973. And say hi to
2:10:44
the rest of the decade was the first impulse towards inflation
2:10:50
was a combination of the domestic forces
2:10:54
historian Oh, when Turner agrees there are similarities, but also
2:10:58
big differences such as the background of top politicians.
2:11:03
I think our problem now is a lack of knowledge. We don't have
2:11:06
anybody around in politics, who can remember what it was like
2:11:09
with inflation, certainly not in office, and many of them not at
2:11:13
all, because this is this is quite a young generation of
2:11:16
politicians. Now, I think there's a danger in possibly in
2:11:20
the other direction they people are slightly lost by
2:11:25
the increase in prices. Like Johnson today had aspirations to
2:11:29
shift Britain's economy into a higher gear. In 1972, his
2:11:35
government announced a budget to double the rate of economic
2:11:38
growth which stoked inflation. Today's leadership front runner
2:11:42
Foreign Secretary Liz truss has been accused by rival candidate
2:11:47
Rishi Sunak of making a similar mistake with her vowed to slash
2:11:51
taxes. In the end, he paid the price for his handling of the
2:11:55
economy and worker relations. He lost to the opposition Labour
2:11:59
Party in a 1974 snap election.
2:12:06
Yes, I remember a lot is made in the 70s Looks like you're gonna
2:12:09
be made again by Liz. Well, then she gets in.
2:12:12
It's only good. It's only the 70s. Again, if you screw it up
2:12:15
the same way.
2:12:16
Yeah, well, that's what they say that Liz is going to do. She's
2:12:19
going to scores up the same way mess it
2:12:21
up. So there was a there was an article in the Financial Times
2:12:25
which I mean, the Financial Times it costs a lot of money.
2:12:29
It's not easy to crack the paywall. So this was a real
2:12:32
article. And the title is a winter energy reckoning looms
2:12:36
for the West. And they paint a very, very, very bleak and dark
2:12:42
picture, in particular of the European Union. It starts off
2:12:50
across the world, politicians are evermore desperately looking
2:12:52
to contain the explosive consequences of the energy
2:12:55
crisis. In those parts of Asia, the Middle East and Africa
2:12:59
already mired in multiple economic and political
2:13:02
difficulties. The crisis is providing catastrophic. Those
2:13:05
who import liquid natural gas must now compete with European
2:13:09
late comers to the LNG market seeking an alternative to
2:13:11
pipelines, Russian gas, it's so bad that in this article that
2:13:15
even referenced politicians having backroom conversations
2:13:20
about possibly cutting some kind of deal with Putin, because they
2:13:23
know that their people are going to be very cold, a very unhappy,
2:13:28
possibly starve. Now our tea blames us on the US, which I
2:13:32
think there's some validity to it, about how we played it. But
2:13:37
what's interesting is that this kind of happens in the same
2:13:41
backdrop of the Iran deal. And I'm kind of wondering, since
2:13:50
Venezuela has now stopped oil shipments to Europe, I want and
2:13:55
natural gas. I wonder if Iran which I think don't have one of
2:13:58
the largest gas fields or untapped resources there. Do you
2:14:02
think that the idea of these globalist elites is to make Iran
2:14:07
the new Russian gas station for everybody?
2:14:12
Well, I don't see how they can make that work personally. So I
2:14:18
hope not.
2:14:20
Well, they're they're hell bent on doing some kind of deal. So I
2:14:24
don't know it just felt. So like
2:14:28
a reliable resource. Iran.
2:14:31
Well, this is a fact. There's nothing good over there for
2:14:37
sure. See, what else do we have here?
2:14:42
Well, I have the little report here with a kind of a kicker in
2:14:46
it which involves a Russia which is the shipping grains.
2:14:50
Shipping grains.
2:14:52
UN Secretary General Antonio Gutierrez says getting more
2:14:57
grain out of Ukraine is vital if world Food prices are to go
2:15:01
down. He was speaking in Istanbul here where Turkey is
2:15:05
coordinating an international effort that's enabled the
2:15:08
resumption of brain shipments through the Black Sea despite
2:15:11
the war just yesterday,
2:15:13
I was you know this affordance and saw the firsthand the
2:15:16
loading on a cargo of wheat onto a ship. I was so moved watching
2:15:22
the wheat fill up the hold of the sheep's it was the loathing
2:15:26
of hope for so many around the wolves to terrorists
2:15:29
also says it's very important to make sure that Russian food and
2:15:34
fertilizer which are not subject to the sanctions are also given
2:15:38
unimpeded access to the global markets.
2:15:42
What Oh, What a crap show.
2:15:45
So what Yeah, what a crap show. Oh, fertilizers been exempted
2:15:49
from the these all these horrible sanctions. Ah,
2:15:53
interesting, huh? Well, they have a few yachts but this is
2:15:57
they
2:15:57
realized that people are going to starve they.
2:16:01
Yeah, the public is going to put up with this crap.
2:16:03
They will go for people's heads. They have to be very careful.
2:16:07
Very, very good people. They're getting pretty fed up. Uh, just
2:16:11
want to play more from George Monbiot because he now he was on
2:16:16
PBS buddy be your new buddy George Monbiot. Monbiot is the
2:16:21
commie from hell. He's a writer, journalist, whatever. globalist
2:16:30
douchebag. But, you know, writes for The Guardian, and he was on
2:16:34
what he played the last time but now he's on BBC Hard Talk
2:16:37
spewing this food production is
2:16:38
a success story. Absolutely. It's been an astonishing
2:16:41
success. In fact, almost too much of a success, we produce
2:16:45
roughly twice as many calories as we need. But a huge amount of
2:16:48
that is wasted by being channeled through livestock,
2:16:51
which is very inefficient use of calories,
2:16:52
or very wasteful to channel your calories through livestock,
2:16:57
biofuels, and then some of it is just wasted. So we've got this
2:17:02
tremendously productive system, but it deeply threatens earth
2:17:07
systems on which we also depend entirely for our survival, and
2:17:11
which itself depends upon what's an
2:17:14
earth system. Do you know what an earth system is?
2:17:16
It's some bull crap, I want to mention something, it seems to
2:17:20
me that you mentioned it, lifestyle is one of the best
2:17:23
ways is one of the least wasteful ways because you could,
2:17:26
it's unless they die from no water, they kind of maintain
2:17:30
themselves, and so they don't have an expiration date. When
2:17:33
they're in the field. They're just munching away and they can
2:17:36
you can kill them to eat them. I'm sorry about that. You can
2:17:40
eat them, you know, at different ages, you can let them get old.
2:17:44
I mean, it's like you know, it's kind of like very flexible,
2:17:47
seems like very flexible, as opposed to something with like,
2:17:51
vegetables, for example, when those things are ready to pick,
2:17:54
you gotta pick them, and they go bad. If you don't distribute
2:17:57
them right away, they don't they rot, the end they rot in the
2:18:00
field is less so with livestock.
2:18:03
Well, just like we're being prepared for the elites to be
2:18:06
flying over us at twice the height and three times the
2:18:09
speed, we're being prepared to eat bugs and not eat beef
2:18:13
systems on which we also depend entirely for our survival and
2:18:17
which itself depends upon agriculture depends on a
2:18:21
habitable planet, and is already being hit by a series of climate
2:18:25
shocks, water shocks, oil shocks, soils, agriculture, is
2:18:29
driving as much or more than any other industry.
2:18:32
Tell me a little bit about the soil. Because in the book, you
2:18:37
literally and metaphorically dig deep into what is happening to
2:18:41
the soil beneath our feet.
2:18:43
Whoa, this is I'm interested in what's happening with the soil
2:18:47
is happening, well, soil,
2:18:50
the soil is not just an ecosystem, it's also a
2:18:53
biological structure. It's like a coral reef. It's built by the
2:18:56
creatures that inhabit
2:18:57
it. But soil is now like a coral reef, which by the way, has
2:19:00
tripled in size and Australia magically
2:19:03
bacteria up to the giants of the soil, earthworms, and that
2:19:08
ecosystem is entirely dependent on the life forms within it. If
2:19:12
those life forms disappear, if we wipe them out, the soil
2:19:15
literally collapses, its structure, which has been built
2:19:18
by those organisms collapses, many of the ways of producing it
2:19:21
are devastating to that soil from which we receive 99% of our
2:19:26
calories. So for instance, if you apply too much nitrate
2:19:29
fertilizer, paradoxically, it can destroy the fertility of the
2:19:32
soil, because the bacteria in the soil if they have too much
2:19:36
nitrate, they burn through the carbon, which they use as the
2:19:39
cement which builds the soil structure. So the whole
2:19:41
structure collapses in on itself, the soil becomes
2:19:44
waterlogged and airless and it can actually inhibit plant
2:19:48
growth.
2:19:49
Jhansi Dvorak, your professional chemical analysis of the
2:19:52
statements
2:19:55
Well, we know that over fertilization is not good.
2:19:58
That's when you have to rotate crops is plenty Farmers know how
2:20:01
to deal
2:20:02
with this been doing that for centuries and generationally for
2:20:05
centuries and the newer farmers do it even better. And even the
2:20:08
corporate farmers do it. Well. This is bullcrap. Well, let's
2:20:12
listen to
2:20:12
his solutions. I divide the food system into three grain or
2:20:16
arable farming, horticulture that's fruit and veg and protein
2:20:21
rich and fat rich foods and we desperately need farming arable
2:20:26
Don't you hate it with veg,
2:20:31
vegetables, fruit and veg and protein rich and fat rich foods
2:20:35
and we desperately need farming to produce arable and
2:20:39
horticultural products. But I think by far and away the most
2:20:43
benign thing we can do and indeed it gives us the best
2:20:46
chance we have of getting to the farmer is to take the production
2:20:50
of protein rich foods out of farming altogether and into the
2:20:54
facts. So
2:20:55
you without being very specific and blunt about it. You are
2:20:58
saying that livestock farming as we know it right around the
2:21:02
world from the Welsh sheep farmer to the Maasai herdsmen
2:21:05
has to end human beings have to stop raising animals for meat.
2:21:11
The harsh truth is that livestock farming is the
2:21:14
greatest driver of those disastrous impacts which I've
2:21:18
already mentioned. And yet it produces very little of our food
2:21:22
by comparison to the smaller drivers that those impacts which
2:21:25
are the arable and horticultural production, it's obviously an
2:21:29
important component and I'm not saying take away animals from
2:21:33
opposite take away animals from subsistence farmers at all but
2:21:36
for those of us who have diets Yes, we should be getting out of
2:21:40
meat eating getting out of milk and eggs and switching towards
2:21:44
not just a plant based diet but I want to see those crucial
2:21:48
protein source sources replaced by microbial protein produced
2:21:53
through precision fermentation it's it's an enhanced form of
2:21:56
brewing
2:21:57
precision fermentation I am so excited about my efforts my
2:22:02
burger being precision fermented and oh no let's look into which
2:22:08
is actually now
2:22:10
I think is impossible Taco Bell it's testing a new plant based
2:22:14
meat alternative at some of its location so the fast food chain
2:22:17
announced it is debuted a new crispy melts taco at some
2:22:21
restaurants in Alabama of all places. Yeah. All right. So the
2:22:25
meat alternative is made with soy and pea protein blend. It's
2:22:30
inspired by classic Taco Bell flavors and this comes as talk
2:22:33
about partnered with Beyond Meat for more vegetarian and vegan
2:22:36
options. Those products will be available before the end of the
2:22:40
year.
2:22:42
Always Taco Bell knows native ads that's a native ad but let's
2:22:45
boy can I just kind of say one way isn't Taco Bell tacos
2:22:49
already have not beef. I was
2:22:51
exactly what I was gonna say they are the OG plant based
2:22:55
protein which is wood.
2:22:57
Yeah, they got wood in their garden. Once it's
2:23:00
silica sand. Sand. The sand is
2:23:03
the best part of dirt. I'm sure there's dirt in there because it
2:23:06
tastes like dirt. It's nothing like a taco bell taco if you
2:23:10
want to taste the future.
2:23:12
The question is, are we just going to laugh our way as the
2:23:15
Titanic er and by the way that wasn't it did Judge Dredd movie
2:23:19
where they're driving around and somebody says Oh, every every
2:23:22
restaurants now a taco.
2:23:23
That's that's the futuristic one with AI with Wesley Snipes.
2:23:30
Okay, yeah, yeah, it's with the people. Yeah, that exactly
2:23:35
Demolition Man. That is the future Demolition
2:23:37
Man with the deadly restaurants. Taco Bell and
2:23:41
the radio plays jingles. That's the That's all the songs the
2:23:44
radio plays. And then the people live underground. And you know
2:23:47
what they eat underground. But rats
2:23:52
will eat rats. Rats heard you know, the French during the
2:23:55
French Revolution ate rats because they had nothing else to
2:23:58
eat. And there's a number of French recipes for rat better
2:24:02
supposedly pretty good. Have you ever you can get that can
2:24:05
happen. Have you ever tried? No, God, no, I don't want to you
2:24:08
right? Have enough. I don't have an Eden squirrel either. But I
2:24:11
do like rabbits. So you know? What's the difference? If you
2:24:14
really look at it objectively.
2:24:16
I'm going to show my school by donating to no agenda. Imagine
2:24:19
all the people who could do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fine.
2:24:30
I can tell you some people that don't eat rat. Andrea Ludlum is
2:24:35
one of them. She's in Holmes Beach, Florida. Nein nein, nein
2:24:40
Nein. Thanks for the hard work. To send some kids through school

just look at August September it is jam packed all the way
2:35:41
through 1234 meetups alone on my birthday on September 3 is going
2:35:46
to be off the hook no agenda meetups. This is where you find
2:35:50
your community, also known as your community, which you will
2:35:53
see is completely different on the external than anything you
2:35:55
ever believed would be old. Young, short, tall, fat, skinny,
2:36:02
gay, straight, whatever queer. All this stuff. Bred blue, right
2:36:07
left you get the idea. You will love it. You will come together
2:36:11
and you control it because no agenda meetups.com is completely
2:36:15
producer organized. If you can't find one start one yourself.
2:36:19
Sometimes you go hang out with all day.
2:36:26
You won't be triggered. You want to say is like a backup. Ah.
2:36:43
Okay, do you have ISOs? Everyone?
2:36:50
Okay. Oh, I
2:36:51
see. Where is your ISO? Oh, you I have to? I have to so not much
2:36:56
better. I wonder how we're going to fare today. Let's see what
2:36:58
you got early work
2:36:59
as far from over.
2:37:02
The end of the show our work is far from over his net effect.
2:37:06
And it's clear as crystal crystal clear. Yeah, your work
2:37:12
is far from over.
2:37:14
Actually have I'm gonna have three now. Let me see. This is
2:37:17
me at three. Now. Stop whining and eat your bugs
2:37:21
kind of like that. That's cute. That's cute. Yeah. How about
2:37:26
you've just got to think COVID No, but I think this is the
2:37:30
winner. Well, that
2:37:31
sucked. That I think
2:37:34
Hey, biggest laugh? How can you? There you go. As far as I'm
2:37:38
concerned, we have a winner ladies and gentlemen. It's not
2:37:42
often if we get to do one that is ourselves, but very good to
2:37:47
very good. Oh, as as we go towards the camera, how we doing
2:37:53
on time today? Actually, as we go to it now. Okay. You know,
2:37:57
the big hullabaloo this week was the prime minister of Finland
2:38:03
was dancing like a sloth. Did you follow this story?
2:38:08
Oh, I saw it. And it couldn't get behind it as an interesting
2:38:13
anything. It's just so what? Well, I think it's got to do in
2:38:17
Finland, by the way. Isn't this the time of the year whereas
2:38:20
pretty much I've been to Finland isn't this the time of year when
2:38:25
it is 24 hours a day of sunshine? So you're probably
2:38:29
eating your party a lot?
2:38:31
No, this is something else I can I think I know what this is.
2:38:34
This is a distraction. Of course. Now this is by the way,
2:38:38
as Prime Minister go rockin. I like her, you know, like, I
2:38:43
don't give a shit what she does. But why was this clearly private
2:38:46
video released with her? Yeah, I mean, she's simulating sex acts.
2:38:52
It's just what you do when you're hanging out and dancing
2:38:54
is not drunk when you doesn't matter. But it's is when you're
2:38:58
when you're 30. Maybe you shouldn't be doing that. Maybe I
2:39:01
don't know. It doesn't matter to me. Because all I see is a
2:39:04
distraction from what she said one day earlier, which the news
2:39:08
definitely did not want you to hear.
2:39:10
Well, they didn't start the war. But at the same time, we have to
2:39:14
realize that they are supporting the war. I think it's not right
2:39:18
that Russian citizens can travel enter Europe Schengen area, be
2:39:23
tourists see the side scenes while Russia is killing people
2:39:27
in Ukraine. It's wrong.
2:39:29
I think that this had to go away. She said Russian citizens
2:39:32
you can't come to EU anymore. No, shouldn't shouldn't happen.
2:39:37
That got no play. I think that I think they had to distract from
2:39:40
that and who knows what else she said?
2:39:42
Ah, that's why I am not gonna argue this one. Okay, it makes
2:39:46
sense because they don't want to say stuff like that because the
2:39:49
Russians when they come to Europe, they spend a lot a lot
2:39:53
of money. And they also there are certain haunts, all in
2:39:58
Europe that the Russians flock to so it's not just a rich
2:40:02
Russian spending a lot of money there's a lot of Russians I
2:40:05
think they can put up with this comment like that is just this
2:40:08
Ukraine things over with the Russians will be welcomed back.
2:40:11
I have my Russian story. I just think this is hilarious because
2:40:15
the Russians have managed it to their benefit to almost all the
2:40:19
American companies so they got rid of Starbucks. Starbucks
2:40:22
bailed and so the Russians just took over the Starbucks stores
2:40:25
they didn't legitimately they took the leases over and did the
2:40:28
rest in play this clip and then I'll tell you the funny part
2:40:31
about it
2:40:32
that Starbucks may have left Russia back in May. But a new
2:40:36
chain of coffee shops in the capital of Moscow is hoping to
2:40:39
replicate its success in more ways than one Oh, Russian
2:40:43
restaurant tour Anton Pinsky and rapper Tamati debuted New
2:40:47
Venture stars coffee on Thursday, its logo and font
2:40:51
might bear a striking familiarity. Coffee drinker
2:40:55
walking down the street, but mighty insists it's all about
2:40:59
perception. That's pretty funny.
2:41:04
So they took the Starbucks and they took and capstar the same
2:41:09
exact you know, every they took the actual star and they took
2:41:13
the s off of bucks and moved it over took bucks out. They have
2:41:17
the same woman logo that circle with that goddess, whatever it
2:41:21
is in the middle, didn't change that at all. And coffee
2:41:25
underneath is exactly the same. So at Starbucks without buck.
2:41:31
They took the buck out of Starbucks and it's just the same
2:41:34
story so far, and I thought it was genius the way they did it.
2:41:36
Unlike the McDonald's guys who took over McDonald's and changed
2:41:39
the logo.
2:41:40
Yeah, what a mistake. Well, they learned they learned the
2:41:43
Russians are trolling in good ways. Now this story out. Russia
2:41:47
offers mother heroin, metal and $16,000 If you have 10 children
2:41:52
or more. I mean that's just trolling isn't it? It's like a
2:41:57
we're gonna hope so overpopulate. Y'all didn't so
2:42:02
all this all that great news was going on about Starbucks. Did
2:42:06
you hear about this?
2:42:07
Tonight the US announcing a massive $775 million military
2:42:12
aid package for Ukraine. It includes more ammunition for the
2:42:17
high Mars rocket systems 16 new houses and for the first time
2:42:23
the Pentagon sending 15 Scan Eagle reconnaissance drones to
2:42:26
better identify key Russian targets. It comes amid growing
2:42:31
fears of an impending disaster at Europe's largest nuclear
2:42:33
power plant in South Korea that could lead to radiation
2:42:37
contamination across the continent. Russia ordering its
2:42:40
staff not to show up to work today. As both sides have warned
2:42:43
of an escalation. Ukraine accuses Russia of using the
2:42:46
plant as a military base. Ukrainian officials posting this
2:42:50
video showing Russian vehicles inside the plant. ABC News is
2:42:55
not verified the date this video was taken after shelling newly
2:42:59
released before and after satellite images from several
2:43:02
days ago show scorch marks in the area near the plant. nearby
2:43:06
communities taking no chances conducting disaster drills in
2:43:10
response to those attacks. First Responders practice putting on
2:43:13
protective gear and treating the injured
2:43:17
you know, so besides this almost a billion dollars, which is a
2:43:21
billion dollars is nothing we need to serve atomic rod atoms
2:43:26
to weigh in here I would like to know is this particular nuclear
2:43:29
plant in its current state and Sir Rob Adams, I mean, he knows
2:43:35
a lot about this. He's on top of this
2:43:37
wooded and he's also in that he's also in the milieu. Yeah,
2:43:41
so everyone would know.
2:43:42
What I'd like to know is if you bomb this, will that indeed
2:43:47
release radiation and contamination? Or is that maybe
2:43:51
a little overblown?
2:43:53
I think the whole thing whether you anyone's gonna bomb at the
2:43:57
Russia's definitely will bomb it because the radiation is gonna
2:44:00
go right into Russia.
2:44:02
Yeah, but I don't think it even will happen. I don't even think
2:44:04
that
2:44:05
it'll happen either. I think phony belies a MacGuffin. Versus
2:44:09
phony baloney pop. MacGuffin, Guffin explained, MacGuffin.
2:44:15
MacGuffin is a is a gimmick used in mystery writing. Where you
2:44:21
know, the whole story is about recapturing an item, a jewel, a
2:44:27
dossier, a government secret. No, it has a whole bunch that
2:44:34
it's a MacGuffin, that thing that doesn't matter what it is.
2:44:37
Because it's just used as an excuse to complete the mystery
2:44:40
story. So it's a meaningless item is what in the big scheme
2:44:46
of things is a meaningless? It might be a valuable diamond, but
2:44:48
it's a meaningless item and it's always referred to in this trade
2:44:52
as a MacGuffin, MacGuffin, I like it. It's a very good term
2:44:56
and you'll see it in a lot of stories. If you look at a story
2:44:58
where they're going after something because They're trying
2:45:00
to capture this or that. You know J A lot of James Bond
2:45:03
movies and others these movies have involve a MacGuffin,
2:45:07
MacGuffin and MacGuffin, and maybe there you go.
2:45:12
I'm not sure which one I like that.
2:45:16
Which show title MacGuffin.
2:45:17
I wrote it down. In fact, I wrote it down.
2:45:20
Let's get one. I got one last clip then to keep us up.
2:45:23
I'll let you I'll let you play that as lost. I have a short
2:45:27
3031 seconds and update on Keith, how things get going and
2:45:31
Keith and the only reason I really want to play this 30
2:45:34
seconds because you know who the mayor of Kiva is now, don't you?
2:45:37
It's Klich. It has been clicked for a long time. Yeah, I
2:45:41
know. But we didn't have to remind ourselves that glitch is
2:45:43
now the mayor. This is one of the guys who Victorian young big
2:45:47
six foot a boxer. Yeah, who was who was outstanding heavyweight
2:45:52
is the mayor. Of course, both two brothers, two brothers
2:45:55
involved. Yeah. And they're the gangsters but just listen
2:46:00
whether smart gangsters if they are
2:46:02
of course these people aren't top of the world. But listen to
2:46:05
an update from the mayor of
2:46:07
normal life slowly coming back to Keef, we're open right now
2:46:11
much more restaurants are fair. It's the business coming back
2:46:16
and this slowly starting to work. But it's illusion. Blue
2:46:23
Sky sunshine summer. And we have never forget this couple of 100
2:46:29
kilometers east of Kyiv is hell is being battled where our
2:46:36
buttress defend our country.
2:46:40
So you look at Kyiv and it looks like it's kind of okay, but Oh,
2:46:45
God over there as hell is hell. And it is hell. They're just
2:46:50
read about them having no weapons, nothing is getting to
2:46:54
the front lines as a couple of links in the show notes.
2:46:57
Veterans are coming back to do this. There's nothing everything
2:47:00
gets stolen, everything is sold. It's yeah, it's going
2:47:04
everywhere. And you know, it's horrible.
2:47:06
You've got clip after clip we've been playing these clips for
2:47:09
weeks 30% Max goes to the actual fighting. So
2:47:14
a lot of so the I asked some asked around to where these
2:47:18
weapons going that we send over there that never reached the
2:47:21
front lines or going to the Kurds. They're going to
2:47:26
oligarchy and they're going to Russians, Russians have over on
2:47:29
the biggest ammo depots and missile storages and they've
2:47:34
taken them all
2:47:35
so that's why they need that guy back there. He knows how they do
2:47:39
this all right, we're gonna get him back gave give Brian Greiner
2:47:44
up for that guy. Get my last clip as is just a final closing
2:47:48
story to the jihad John case. Oh, it finally wrapped up this
2:47:53
these guys a bunch of them. And here's how it ended with the New
2:47:57
Tang Dynasty reporting
2:47:58
now to a gruesome saga of terrorist torture. A member of
2:48:01
an Islamic state cell known as The Beatles could be sentenced
2:48:05
to life in prison and a US Federal Court was found guilty
2:48:09
in a plot that led to the beheadings of us journalists and
2:48:12
aid workers. 33 year old el Shafi El Sheikh was found guilty
2:48:16
of the charges by a federal jury in April after a six week trial
2:48:20
and hours of deliberations jury concluded that he was part of an
2:48:24
Islamic state cell nicknamed The Beatles for their British
2:48:27
accents. The cell beheaded American hostages in Iraq and
2:48:31
Syria. Al Sheikh was born in Sudan and raised in London. He
2:48:35
was accused of conspiring to kill for American hostages to
2:48:39
journalists and one aid worker were beheaded on video. The
2:48:43
fourth hostage was raped repeatedly by the group's leader
2:48:46
at the time and then killed al sheiks charges carried a
2:48:50
potential death sentence. But us prosecutors told British
2:48:53
officials they will not seek the death penalty.
2:48:56
The Beatles are back. I forgot about them. The Beatles that
2:49:03
reminds me I was listening to do I was listening to a Darren
2:49:06
O'Neill show today. And I one thing he does he reminds me how
2:49:10
bad some of these bands are. That clash. I was
2:49:13
actually worse. I was actually not talking about the Beatles,
2:49:17
The Beatles
2:49:18
you talking about the jihadist Beatles but I was thinking of
2:49:21
the Beatles because I was thinking why does it Jarrett
2:49:23
Darren O'Neal play Yellow Submarine. I think that would
2:49:26
fit right into
2:49:26
it. That's one of my least favorite Beatle songs.
2:49:29
So summary. I
2:49:30
really don't like
2:49:31
that out of the archives and put that in there. Okay.

2:51:04
first and foremost, let's just start from the beginning. How
2:51:07
exactly is Monkey pox
2:51:09
spread? According to the CDC 98% of monkey pox cases are in men
2:51:15
93% among men who reported recent sexual contact with other
2:51:20
men What the
2:51:20
CDC says the vast majority of cases have involved men having
2:51:24
sex with other men but late Friday night, Illinois officials
2:51:28
reported that a daycare worker tested positive CDC the warning
2:51:33
over the weekend about children under the age of eight out of
2:51:35
the monkey box outbreak spreading in the US a seventh
2:51:38
child has now been infected for
2:51:40
a suspected case of human to dog monkey pox transmission that
2:51:43
happened in France. First and foremost, let's just start from
2:51:46
the beginning.
2:51:47
How exactly is Monkey pox spread spread?
2:51:50
Well, as much as many
2:51:52
people don't want to accept this it is primarily a sexually
2:51:54
transmitted infection reading when
2:51:56
we first get it started to get those reports and then it wasn't
2:51:59
just cats. It wasn't just dogs. We saw it with other animals as
2:52:02
well. We have an
2:52:03
outbreak that has spread around the world
2:52:06
rapidly. growing concern over the global spread of monkey pox
2:52:11
spreading spreading. The nation's monkey pox outbreak is
2:52:15
spreading.
2:52:24
I'm Dame Jennifer Buchanan and I am President and Director of
2:52:28
Research here at the animated Institute for no agenda
2:52:31
sciences. This is an interdisciplinary program where
2:52:35
we work with agenda expanses, and agenda expression for human
2:52:40
resources as young as three and their families who are
2:52:43
questioning their agenda or who are not left right binary.
2:52:48
My name is Sophia Alex Wilson. And this is my no agenda
2:52:51
journey.
2:52:52
A person's agenda is important to their identity. Also Chris
2:52:56
Wilson, Felix's father. While many human resources are happy
2:53:01
in the agenda, they are assigned at birth, there are some who are
2:53:04
born with an agenda that doesn't match the agenda assigned to
2:53:07
them. We call this agenda dysphoria. From when
2:53:11
I first held Felix in my arms, I knew he was a special human
2:53:14
resource. But when the doctor told me what his agenda was, it
2:53:18
somehow didn't feel right to one of my first
2:53:21
memories as a young child was that I didn't feel comfortable
2:53:24
with the agenda. I was assigned at birth. Somehow I felt
2:53:28
different from my friends.
2:53:30
It was when he started school, we started to notice the
2:53:32
difference between him and the other children.
2:53:34
What was different about you and the other children? They would
2:53:37
play news clips of Donald Trump on the television, and everyone
2:53:40
would go boo.
2:53:42
What did you do?
2:53:43
I'd say yay. You know, like little girl. Yeah.
2:53:46
What did the other kids do
2:53:48
that oh, wow. Off.
2:53:49
It was at that moment, we realized our son identified with
2:53:52
no agenda and enrolled him in institutions young producers
2:53:55
program,
2:53:56
we started him off trying his no agenda identity in small ways to
2:54:00
see how comfortable he was. So in the morning, your morning,
2:54:04
and thank you for your courage. Thank you for your banana. Did
2:54:10
you feel when we did that
2:54:11
felt pretty good. I was asked to do a speech for class on a
2:54:14
famous person. I chose to do mine on Adam curry. I thought
2:54:18
it'd be the best time to come out and tell people about my no
2:54:21
agenda.
2:54:22
Are you worried about what might happen? That's a great question.
2:54:25
That's a great question.
2:54:27
I thought that when the school found out that they would take
2:54:30
me away and give me new parents to live with
2:54:32
to remember what the costs did when you came out and gave your
2:54:35
presentation.
2:54:36
They all laughed and then got up and dance when I played the
2:54:38
Christmas jingle. Donald Trump is coming to town
2:54:41
was done that we knew we had to act before he became an
2:54:44
adolescent. We started him immediately on amygdala
2:54:48
blockers. They got fellas a
2:54:49
pet goat called makes a
2:54:51
mac and cheese
2:54:53
will remove bugs from his diet.
2:54:55
As soon as he was ready. We performed media deconstructive
2:54:58
surgery and spend time each week with no agenda affirming
2:55:01
activities, identifying propaganda and recording jingles
2:55:05
before puberty sighted and his cute and innocent voice would
2:55:08
change forever.
2:55:11
be reduced by we knew time
2:55:13
was running out for Felix. Soon adolescents would take over
2:55:16
somehow
2:55:17
knew we would no longer be able to exploit this young innocent
2:55:20
child voice between laughs So
2:55:21
Felix was set on a heavy course of begging for donations.
2:55:26
org slash donate before no child's last name it for our
2:55:39
children to make it paid off. I remember how I woke up at my
2:55:44
phone was filled with notes of congratulations. I didn't know
2:55:48
what happened. But I had a sneaking suspicion of what it
2:55:51
might be.
2:55:51
through the generous support of the no agenda community and
2:55:54
anonymous producer had sponsored surfy legs to become a member of
2:55:58
the no agenda roundtable.
2:55:59
I remember that morning my dad came in and woke me up all
2:56:02
excited.
2:56:03
For the Wilson family. It was a dream come true.
2:56:07
It was wild beyond anything. I had to pinch myself to make sure
2:56:10
I wasn't dreaming. That day was the day I could look everyone in
2:56:14
the eye and say my child isn't a slave anymore.
2:56:17
Yes. I went to bed his feelings. And when I woke up I was Sir
2:56:22
Felix the early night a night of the no agenda roundtable. And
2:56:25
Daddy. Yes, Felix you know you were on that day. What a douche
2:56:29
bag douche
2:56:31
bag. Agenda reassignment is an original production by the Gitmo
2:56:35
players guild starring Dame Jennifer Buchanan. So Felix
2:56:39
