Silicon Valley, where it's
1:18
snowing everywhere. I'm Jhansi
Dvorak.
1:25
Adam Curry: It's actually
snowing in California. Oh, it's
1:28
John C Dvorak: snowing quite a
bit. It was a blizzard warning
1:31
down in SoCal,
1:32
Adam Curry: but I mean it's
snowing. Were
1:33
John C Dvorak: you not blizzard?
Literally a blizzard warning.
1:36
Oh, what
1:37
Adam Curry: are we going to
drift into over the years? Shut
1:38
down the power. Shut it down.
1:41
John C Dvorak: So they had to
shut down?
1:42
Adam Curry: They will not they
will. So So Is it snowing where
1:46
you aren't? Because that's
that's pretty new.
1:48
John C Dvorak: A couple of days
ago, so flakes may have fallen.
1:53
There were some nice bolts of
lightning though. They were
1:56
stunners. But the snow up in
Oakland Hills snowed in the
2:01
little model train they got up
there. Oh, snowed in Mont ham
2:06
snowed in? Well, this daughter
came up with a good
2:10
pronunciation for Mount Tamil
pious mount to monopolists. I
2:15
think.
2:16
Adam Curry: Don't call it mount
tam is when everyone calls her
2:18
that's not
2:19
John C Dvorak: a cam. Yeah,
yeah. I like mount to
2:21
monopolists.
2:23
Adam Curry: So this is clearly
global warming. Yeah, just
2:28
record low. Just want to make
sure to record
2:31
John C Dvorak: lows, record low
highs, in other words to high
2:34
temperature record for all time.
All time ever. Yeah. Well,
2:40
including the Paleo this thick
period, I think but in San
2:44
Francisco. One example record
low of all time. Well, please
2:49
Adam Curry: tell me that there's
a warm please. Yes. Please tell
2:52
me there's a report telling us
that this is because of global
2:55
warming. I will need that
report.
2:57
John C Dvorak: To be honest
about it. I looked and looked
2:59
and no one wanted to bring it
up. I found it.
3:02
Adam Curry: Oh no. You got one.
Where's it and it
3:06
John C Dvorak: came it didn't
come from any of our sources. It
3:08
came from Al Jazeera. This is
California cold reverse Al
3:12
Jazeera.
3:13
Unknown: Oops sorry. California
is experiencing an unusually
3:16
cold and wet winter with
flooding and mudslides in a
3:19
state longer affected by drought
and wildfires. People here say
3:23
they've been warned to prepare
for more extreme weather in the
3:26
coming days.
3:27
I think that is one of the
biggest concerns is we are
3:30
looking at a lot of rainfall
snow, the snow will melt and the
3:33
wind and we worry about the
mudslides and flooding since
3:38
we've had it twice already.
3:40
Experts say powerful winter
storms mixed with spells of
3:44
extreme heat and dry weather are
symptoms of climate change.
3:52
Adam Curry: Wait who was an
expert? I just want to hear who
3:54
that was. Again, we
3:55
Unknown: make sure experts say
powerful winter storm experts
3:58
was mixed with spelled out do
you
3:59
Adam Curry: think they just add
that at any report? They call up
4:01
an experts expert, expert,
expert expert. Tell me what do
4:06
you think? Oh, yeah, AJ,
4:08
John C Dvorak: you know, the
funny thing is nobody else did
4:11
that. They didn't try to pull
that because it would become you
4:13
know what? Yeah, but Algis
you're through it? And so yeah,
4:18
you can see what they're all
about.
4:20
Adam Curry: I want to say a big
in the morning to the former
4:23
podcasters who are joining us
today. Tell me more the pod
4:29
fasters people who have
deliberately now stopped
4:31
listening to podcasts that 1.5
or double speed and I've former
4:39
podcasters and I've gotten
tremendous results have been
4:43
reported. This is the one I love
the most. Do you have your mic?
4:49
Just make sure I'm gonna make
sure you're holding on to it.
4:52
John C Dvorak: I've got a tight
grip on it. That's what it
4:54
sounds like also the mic now
4:58
Adam Curry: people are finding
that they have more patience now
5:03
with their children and spouse.
Please, this is the truth. I'm
5:09
getting these messages, saying,
you know, I, I was always
5:13
listening at 1.5 speed. And I
always felt that normal
5:18
conversation with like, get to
the point. Come on child. What's
5:21
your problem about the homework?
5:23
John C Dvorak: Oh yeah, cuz you
can't get the kid to speak to
5:26
1.5
5:27
Adam Curry: No. And this is what
it does to you.
5:31
John C Dvorak: This is what it
may be. This may be an element
5:35
of one of our producers Cheryl
who sent in this following note.
5:39
Oh, okay. Hi, gents. Thanks for
the amygdala maintenance. I'm
5:43
responding to a recent segment
regarding listening speeds for
5:47
podcasts. There you go. I've
stopped listening to most of the
5:51
rage bait people like that term.
Yes. I listen to you guys at
5:57
normal speed because you both
speak at a reasonable rate. But
6:01
there are many people I listen
to it 1.25 Because they talk
6:04
slow.
6:06
Adam Curry: Some people talk
slow.
6:09
John C Dvorak: 1.5 is most often
too fast for content absorption.
6:13
We've We've pointed that out
before. But good lord, some
6:17
people desperately need to pick
up their pace, all caps. I don't
6:22
need drama. But I do need people
to get in there freak and point
6:26
without droning.
6:28
Adam Curry: Well, that's not
that. Yeah, that's not a
6:29
question of people not speaking
fast. That's a question of a
6:32
boring podcast. Drop it from
your list.
6:36
John C Dvorak: As she signs off
with a northern girl who talks
6:39
fast and zones out when people
talk slow.
6:43
Adam Curry: Well, Roman sent me
a note and reminded me and that
6:46
we have discussed this on
episode 1200. Which I really
6:52
don't remember. But
6:53
John C Dvorak: I do remember us
talking about this before? Well,
6:57
Adam Curry: the interesting
thing Romans note was in the in
7:00
the show notes for episode 1200.
And his point at the time was
7:05
the end of this book, the
mission the men in me. And in it
7:08
an army psychologist describes
what the brain goes through
7:11
three phases saturation,
incubation and illumination when
7:16
learning something new. And so
he questioned if listening at a
7:21
higher speed than natural could
extend the phase of saturation
7:27
and inhibits the transition to
incubation and illumination,
7:30
thereby slowing or stopping your
ability to learn at all. And I
7:35
think there's something to that.
Hmm, it's an if anyone wants to
7:40
reread it. I mean, it's, there's
really, the revolution is
7:45
happening here. People are
slowing down their podcasts, and
7:48
we're leading the charge for
some odd reason. Then it's good.
7:53
It's much better if you
7:56
John C Dvorak: miss a lot of
intonation stuff, especially
7:59
when you're trying to do
something that's light. Even
8:02
though I don't know if news
deconstruction is technically
8:04
light, but it was you trying to
do something light or light
8:07
hearted? Yeah, there's a lot of
is a lot of it's in the new AMI
8:11
and intonation timing is
completely ruined by 1.5.
8:14
Adam Curry: And so yeah, so you
won't laugh anymore, you'll stop
8:17
the jokes will become less
funny. And let's face it, our
8:22
comedic stylings are what's
holding this ship together? See
8:30
a pregnant pause. A pregnant
pause. Another thing. Another
8:34
thing you won't get if you have
that your app chopping out
8:37
silences. Anyway, that's all
fine. Hey, I spoke to our vice
8:42
count, the executive director of
Project Veritas. You want to do
8:46
that now and you want to wait
for some of
8:48
John C Dvorak: you might as well
do it now. I'm kind of
8:49
interested.
8:50
Adam Curry: We spoke for about
an hour. Yeah, we spoke for an
8:53
hour on the holidays is gonna
take it's gonna take me an hour.
8:56
We spoke for about an hour. He's
Vikon by the way, sir Daniel
9:01
striker. And he has been the
Executive Director of Project
9:05
Veritas for a year. And so this
is this is his story. And I 100%
9:14
believe that I hate to say 100%
Do you so many people 100
9:19
John C Dvorak: complain about
this and you keep doing it? I
9:21
know. I don't believe I've ever
said that.
9:24
Adam Curry: No, no, not you
know, this is not you. This is
9:26
everyone else. This is okay.
percent.
9:29
John C Dvorak: I don't know what
what is it always like that
9:31
little 100 thing that you see as
an emoji?
9:33
Adam Curry: It's the it's the
white version of 100 which is
9:37
the black version of 100% and
Scott Scott to Galloway,
9:42
Professor G. He says it all the
time and that's why I'm picking
9:46
it up from and it's annoying me
he'd be like 100% 100 pissant
9:51
cara 100% Okay, go on off of
that. Get me off of that.
9:56
Please.
9:56
John C Dvorak: I don't notice
it. Sorry. So he I don't hear it
10:01
that much from anyone I don't
listen to garlic Galloway, I got
10:05
one new one I've caught don't I
will bring up later in the show
10:09
is because it comes up in a
clip, okay. And they're using on
10:12
PBS to an extreme
10:13
Adam Curry: to an extreme,
there's one you use one extreme
10:18
you use to an extreme to an
extreme. And so we here we
10:23
dissect things don't wait, we
get nitty gritty. So an
10:27
executive director is Executive
Director, CEO and a nonprofit
10:31
are almost interchangeable.
Often it's exactly the same
10:34
thing. But in this case, the
executive director reports to
10:37
the CEO, the CEO was James
O'Keefe. And our Vikon was quick
10:43
to point out he is the ninth
operating person because that's
10:46
really what he is, in this case,
in 12 years a Project Veritas.
10:52
John, I think you want to say
he's like to see subsidises? Oh,
10:56
yes. That's what he said. He was
brought in, he was hired by
10:58
James O'Keefe, to help them with
with the data in line with the
11:04
day to day management, because,
again, he's the ninth operating
11:08
officer in 12 years at Project
Veritas, I think we can identify
11:14
that that's an indicator. Yes,
140 staff have turned over in
11:19
the last seven years. Another
indicator? That's a big one.
11:23
That's a really big one. They
actually have to do some
11:26
headcount reduction. He was
brought in to do this. Oh,
11:31
hatchet, man. Yeah, a bit of a
well, he also brought in HR.
11:36
Hello, this is where the
problems begin. So you know, so
11:39
people have a way and a place
now to go and complain. So he
11:46
knows. So I don't think he
really knows James O'Keefe. I
11:50
don't I certainly don't. But
from his description, this is
11:55
very much. I mean, after
listening to, after listening to
12:00
his story, and he was he was
just talking and talking. The
12:04
way James O'Keefe runs the
business is, especially for
12:11
creative people. If you don't
like it, if you can't get it
12:13
done, you're fired, which I've
heard all my life in mainstream
12:17
television production. So it
doesn't faze me. It comes and
12:20
goes, Yeah, I'm sure that this
is not the pleasant for younger
12:25
people who have not witnessed
this management style.
12:28
John C Dvorak: Roseanne Barr
used to be notorious oh really
12:31
in the writers room. He just
yelling at some poor writer
12:35
you're and it was always the
same phrase. I'm thinking you're
12:40
so fucking fired? Yes, yes. Say
12:45
Adam Curry: yes. People have no
right I bet the writers room to
12:48
this day are still like that on
many shows, writers rooms are
12:51
brutal. So so when you know so
now they have a lot of middle
12:57
management now or management, I
should say a Project Veritas.
12:59
Even if you look at their form
990 They have a chief strategy
13:04
officer. What What kind of
position is that even a Chief
13:10
Strategy Officer, this is
marketing, basically marketing,
13:14
a business development or donor
stewardship.
13:17
John C Dvorak: Also marketing,
also marketing in most jobs or
13:20
marketing,
13:21
Adam Curry: certainly in a
nonprofit environment, you're
13:23
marketing to your donors. So the
other part of the way James
13:30
O'Keefe runs is look, I've got
to do this. I'm raising money.
13:33
I've got to go to this shoot, I
need a jet. Get it Now get me
13:37
the Presidential Suite. I need
everyone up there for meetings.
13:41
So in effect, very similar to
bill in my mind, where Bill
13:46
Gates says, hey, I can fly
private jets because look at all
13:49
the good I'm doing. For Nancy
Pelosi, you know, like I can fly
13:54
anywhere I want I can I'm doing
good. Does that make sense?
13:59
John C Dvorak: Yeah, it does,
actually.
14:01
Adam Curry: And this is not this
is not crazy for someone who
14:04
starts a company like this and
organization, what they're now
14:08
1213 years, whatever they've
they've they've been been
14:12
running and building is, you
know, this is how you run
14:15
things. And the more management
come came in, and at a certain
14:20
point if if the CFO says no, you
can't do that, and the CEO fires
14:25
the CFO without the board and
the board is all jacked on being
14:29
precise. And you know it is look
this if your nonprofit 501, c
14:34
three and C four, you have to
report and you have to and you
14:38
have a fiduciary responsibility.
So that's where things got out
14:42
of whack and it just came to
this I'm paraphrasing what are
14:46
what are our vi count there? So
it just came to a head where the
14:52
board said no, no, you cannot
you can no longer have this
14:56
power to just fire and spend it
Do whatever you want, then the
15:02
suggestion was, Well, my
favorite. Yeah, well, we'll give
15:06
you a title like President,
which I loved. I've been the
15:08
president of all my companies,
because you have, you're totally
15:11
in the executive team, but you
have no responsibility. I'm just
15:15
the president. No, no, no, I'm
doing anything else. And you
15:17
should get a private plane
budget, whatever the guy needs
15:20
to operate, because he's also
doing most of the fundraising.
15:23
It appears to me. Yeah. But but
that mechanism of removing him
15:31
as CEO that just set him off?
And he's like, no, no, no, this
15:35
is a coup, which of course it
is. And I'm not going to I'm not
15:39
going to come back. And so he's
not officially resigned. He's,
15:42
he's, you know, everyone's still
on the payroll, although now
15:45
parts of the staff are literally
down the street at his apartment
15:48
working out of his apartment
with him. So it's, it's one of
15:51
those almost like, what's it
like the office where Michael,
15:57
you know, starting something
new, and he goes to me, and he
15:59
has half the staff in his
apartment, these things are not
16:03
good. And it's come to a head
where the best solution would be
16:07
for James to come back and
everyone to work it out. I don't
16:10
think anyone sees that happening
at all at all at all.
16:14
John C Dvorak: Well, it was a
nice experiment. It went on for
16:19
13 years, personally, and I
don't want to get any flack for
16:23
this. But I don't think they
accomplished the damn thing.
16:26
Adam Curry: Well, and this, this
was kind of my point when I was
16:29
talking to him like, you know,
so as a corn gone. That was his
16:35
first expos egg. Has Has Pfizer
stopped doing what they're
16:39
doing. Now, it seems like we got
a big cheerleading squad for
16:44
everything. But I mean, the same
with us. I mean, nothing we
16:47
exposed the chat doesn't change
anything. It changes people's
16:50
minds. I think that's what we're
16:51
John C Dvorak: what we're not
trying to change the world.
16:53
We're trying to get people to
line up dotata correctly Speak
16:57
for yourself. Well, you might be
but not to me, believe me.
17:02
Adam Curry: No, I understand. I
understand. So, you know,
17:07
John C Dvorak: I think they're
trying to change the world, it
17:08
seems to me
17:09
Adam Curry: Yes. And the end,
they end there's a huge belief
17:12
in the journalists, and I think
they're looking at possibly a
17:16
new face for the organization,
which is an interesting move. If
17:20
they if they did it fast enough,
I think they, they could
17:23
possibly do that. And that's and
that's, that's the downside is,
17:30
you know, the people who work
there really believe they're
17:33
saving the world doing all these
things, and that it's about the
17:37
work and it's not about James,
and to which I respectfully said
17:41
to our vi count, bro. James is
Project Veritas I don't I don't
17:47
see how anything else. And I
think they're prepared to go
17:51
through a rough patch, and start
and try to reboot without him.
17:55
John C Dvorak: It's not
impossible. It's been done.
17:58
You're you have a super
charismatic leader who gets
18:02
booted out and somebody else
comes in who can carry the load.
18:06
rare, very rare, very my
conclusion to that possibility.
18:11
Rare, it can't happen. But it's
a dream world kind of thing. If
18:14
you got still got cash flow and
everything coming through, yeah,
18:17
you can probably coast for a
year or two, you better get that
18:20
guy fast. I don't know if you
can do it. And then again, you
18:23
have to take a look at what
you're doing. Here's Project
18:25
Veritas just kind of a more
serious version of candid
18:29
camera. I mean, they don't tell
you when to turn around the Hey,
18:33
look over there. There's a
camera. Yeah. I mean, I just I'm
18:37
very disappointed in I mean, I
like what they've done. I like
18:41
the Pfizer thing. I liked the
whole thing. But again, it
18:43
accomplished nothing. The
mainstream media's got to stick
18:47
up their ass about any of it. So
if they come up with the real
18:50
scoop, which they've done,
literally, yeah, it doesn't get
18:53
picked up by anyone. It's so
it's, it's outside the
18:55
mainstream, it's fringe.
18:57
Adam Curry: It's like the
Twitter files, you know, they
18:59
might as well not exist. They
just might as well not. It's
19:03
good for everyone else like hey,
you know, that's right. But
19:05
that's about it. And the biggest
problem with running this type
19:13
of organization, because I had
the 2021 filing over $4 million
19:18
in legal fees. And he let me in
on the on the financials. He
19:24
said, Oh, no, we did. We spent 7
million the last year on legal
19:27
fees. Yep, this is the problem
and doesn't matter who's going
19:32
to do this. You need that type
of backing, and and fundraising
19:38
quite honestly, to make to make
something like that work.
19:42
John C Dvorak: It seems to me
that the only way you can make
19:44
something like that work is it
is actually a legal office that
19:50
didn't have a city area.
19:53
Adam Curry: Law office that
19:54
John C Dvorak: has a law firm
and major New York law there and
19:58
has a subsidiary that goes and
does those videos. There you go
20:02
take them on. That's the way to
go. And
20:04
Adam Curry: Rudy Giuliani should
20:06
John C Dvorak: be doing that.
Yeah, yeah. Or yeah,
20:09
Adam Curry: he won't. But so I
guess what I might take
20:13
John C Dvorak: away from is they
have to run everything through
20:16
legal and legal says no to
everything.
20:19
Adam Curry: But you know, no,
O'Keefe, you're not gonna see
20:22
funding, I think a lot of
donors, although, you know, they
20:25
say, oh, no, we've got donors
secured. I know, I know, our
20:29
Vikon believes it. I have no,
20:32
John C Dvorak: I might have some
secured for the short term. I
20:35
don't know. I've never seen
O'Keefe do a sales pitch, but
20:38
he's probably pretty decent.
20:41
Adam Curry: He's well,
apparently, he's one of the
20:43
problems was that one of the
board members had a pretty
20:48
exclusive get together. And and
O'Keefe was there. And then you
20:55
know, the next day or whatever
he's yelling, like, you need to
20:59
send everyone who was there this
email? Well, no, do this. This
21:02
was like, casual. These are my
people, you know, it's an
21:07
introduction. No, you need to
send this email to all of them.
21:10
So when you get into that level,
where you're you're yelling at
21:14
your board, because you want to
fundraise through their network
21:18
kind of directly? This is not
how it works. Or in my
21:23
experience, let's put it that
way.
21:28
John C Dvorak: Yeah, well, no,
you can't exploit some of these
21:31
these networks. They they're
very sensitive to it. Extremely
21:36
sensitive. This is like the
these are the networks that fund
21:39
museums. Yeah.
21:43
Adam Curry: I think you're
right, actually. Yeah.
21:45
John C Dvorak: You notice like
they've you talked to some I
21:47
know people that have
fundraiser,
21:51
Adam Curry: O'Keefe hangs out
with, with Bobby Kennedy, Jr.
21:54
You know, he's up in those
levels. Yeah, these are the
21:58
people that fund museums. I
agree. I agree.
22:03
John C Dvorak: And when you talk
to these guys who are
22:04
fundraising that they talk
about? Oh, yeah, we picked we
22:07
brought in $15 million last
month. They were short. Yeah.
22:11
Right. I'm thinking oh, geez,
yeah. Me what's going on anyway,
22:17
Adam Curry: whatever. If there's
any ulterior motive behind any
22:22
of this, and it's still very
possible, even on the O'Keefe
22:25
side, I'm not I'm leaving any
everything open to
22:27
possibilities. I do not think
that you can resurrect this,
22:32
even and I know who they're
talking to, even with the UN,
22:36
which I've promised not to tell,
even with a new name to come in
22:40
a new face. I just don't I think
it's too tough. And for O'Keefe
22:44
to continue, yeah, he needs the
law office that he I'm sure he
22:48
can fundraise from a lot of the
same people but he'll need the
22:50
law office, that's what you
need. Otherwise, it's just a non
22:53
starter, he can get lots of
people to do the work. So it
22:59
just seems like we got a lot of
so many of these cool projects.
23:03
You know, and, and the
alternative media just turned
23:07
out to be you know, like a lot
of big money problems behind the
23:10
scenes. Like Crowder Shapiro Oh,
this you know what I mean?
23:19
John C Dvorak: Well, they
they're they're swinging for
23:20
they're not like you know the no
agenda team or you have a late
23:26
we stay lean we stay I mean, we
are especially to we don't we're
23:33
not turning it into anything
other than what turns itself
23:36
into in other words that the
like the no agenda shop, for
23:39
example, very few people would
allow that they don't wouldn't
23:44
let him shop just go out and
make no agenda. Just make mugs
23:48
do it in house and that cost
money and it costs as overhead
23:52
and it costs extra people. It's
just these are the mistakes they
23:55
make. Yeah, and we get some
mistake to make mugs if you're a
24:00
podcaster. You podcast you don't
you're not in the mug business.
24:06
Adam Curry: No merch merch,
24:09
John C Dvorak: get oh, call me
up and you're gonna see some
24:12
merch.
24:14
Adam Curry: I don't want no
merch. Yeah, you know, and as
24:18
the world turns towards a great
title for a sitcom, As the World
24:23
Turns, and more and more people
go to Soros for funding. I mean,
24:31
my God, man, how many district
attorneys how many? How many
24:35
politicians have not been
hanging off the Soros Open
24:39
Society Institute. And now that
guy is so toast that just
24:44
imagine going to pitch Soros.
And this is real time. This has
24:48
not edited and he's just trying
to get a word out in this case.
24:53
I think he's trying to say
something. I don't even know
24:57
what he's trying to say. About
gold warming but just listen
25:01
listen to this. This is what
you'd have to deal with. Yes,
25:04
Mr. Soros would really like some
funding for our global warming
25:09
project
25:34
Unknown: increase the level of
the oceans
25:40
Adam Curry: Okay, thanks sign
the cheque old man.
25:44
John C Dvorak: Wow,
25:44
Unknown: that guy's so
25:45
John C Dvorak: toast. He's gone.
25:48
Adam Curry: That's, you know
like we have that's we have a
25:51
senior moment. This is like my
man is already dead moment. Like
25:56
he's just he's just like death
rattle so sad anyway, so it was
26:07
a good clip. Yeah, thanks. It
seems like everything is well
26:13
actually I know what you have
today but what I'm seeing is a
26:16
major shift to from Russia to
China. Now everything that's
26:26
going on we there's a China
element to it. And China is now
26:32
also well, let's listen to the
headline. Are you ready? Get
26:35
ready, everybody. This is a
mainstream media headline.
26:40
Unknown: A special edition of
the CBS Evening News. We're here
26:43
on one of the largest warships
in the world, a US Navy aircraft
26:47
carrier that has just returned
from the South China Sea. And
26:52
just today CBS News learning the
Pentagon plans to increase the
26:56
number of troops in Taiwan as
the independent Island hopes to
27:00
hold off Chinese aggression.
Tonight aboard the USS Nimitz,
27:07
with 5000 of America's concern
tonight about the possibility of
27:12
a new cold war with China with
China.
27:19
Adam Curry: Among the name it's
like got 5000 soldiers were at
27:21
war warship war war war. CBS CIA
broke us war. Listen to this,
27:28
these transitions feeds. This
one here. How closely
27:31
Unknown: is Xi Jinping and China
watching the war in Ukraine
27:34
Adam Curry: go see this is how
we do it. Xi
27:36
Unknown: Jinping is likely
watching the war in Ukraine very
27:39
closely very because it has both
economic implications for China
27:44
diplomatic implications for
China and military implications
27:48
for China.
27:49
To China. Yoshihara has spent
his career studying the Chinese
27:52
navy. He says Xi Jinping is
learning lessons as the Chinese
27:57
President considers invading
Taiwan.
27:59
The first is the nuclear saber
rattling that Putin engaged in
28:03
at the outset of the conflict.
Now, while Putin's nuclear
28:07
threats did not stop the west
from helping you
28:10
Adam Curry: notice the subtle
explosions in the background,
28:13
while they're talking here, it's
just it's so so deep
28:16
Unknown: saber rattling that
Putin is engaged in at the
28:19
outset of the conflict. Now,
while Putin's nuclear threats
28:23
did not stop the west from
helping Ukraine, I think it was
28:26
clear that the United States and
its NATO allies, were very
28:30
cautious took Putin's words
seriously. And so Xi Jinping
28:34
might learn that it might be to
China's benefit to similarly
28:38
engage in early nuclear threats.
28:41
Republican Congressman Mike
Gallagher is a Marine veteran
28:44
and chairs the new house
committee focused on China,
28:47
one of the lessons of Ukraine is
that when dictators tell you,
28:50
they're going to do something
you should pay attention,
28:52
President Biden, oh, to defend
Taiwan, setting the US stop.
28:57
Adam Curry: We've had lessons by
watching Putin.
29:00
John C Dvorak: Putin said he's
not going to invade Ukraine. In
29:04
those early days, he says
nonsense, and I'm like, we're
29:07
not gonna do anything to it. He
said, I can find clips. Yeah. So
29:12
this guy says, Oh, the guy says
that we're supposed to pay
29:14
attention. So we should just
backed off. I mean, make up your
29:19
mind.
29:21
Unknown: A good point he they're
going to do something you should
29:23
pay attention
29:24
press. Well, they paid attention
to it in Biden has pledged to
29:27
defend Taiwan setting the US and
China up for a possible conflict
29:32
this decade,
29:33
really escalated into a conflict
between our navies that would
29:38
entail a level of destruction
and death that we haven't seen
29:42
for a long, long time.
29:44
Adam Curry: Oh, you sound almost
giddy about destruction and
29:47
death we haven't seen for a
long, long time on getting all
29:51
worked up just thinking about
it. And it's across the
29:54
political spectrum we have dusty
Johnson from Where's you South
30:00
Dakota? I think he took over
louie Gohmert No, no, no. Who
30:04
was South Texas, Texas? Well
listen to this guy, dusty
30:09
Johnson.
30:10
Unknown: Let me now bring in
Congressman dusty Johnson. He's
30:11
a Republican from South Dakota.
And he's a member of that House
30:14
Select Committee on China. It's
good. Just it's good to hear
30:19
from you. Thank you for coming
on. Let me start with. We heard
30:24
from Mike Gallagher, the chair
of the committee that you're on,
30:27
can't get weapons there fast
enough? What does that look
30:31
like? And what is the balance
between helping Ukraine and
30:33
helping Taiwan that you'd like
to see
30:35
Adam Curry: balance?
30:36
Unknown: Well, your other guests
were right about a depletion of
30:39
the stockpile. So I do think we
want to be strategic and forward
30:42
looking. You know, Churchill, I
think called the United States,
30:45
the arsenal of democracy. And
clearly that is still true. But
30:49
we do need to, to arm the
Taiwanese. This, the threat from
30:53
the Chinese Communist Party is
only growing, we have seen their
30:57
pattern of aggression, get, I
think, more provocative. And so
31:01
this is something the select
committee is gonna be spending a
31:02
lot of time discussing.
31:04
Adam Curry: So I'll play one
more just to identify that the
31:07
narrative is shifting from
Russia to China. Taiwan is the
31:12
new Ukraine, but maybe, you
know, maybe Taiwan is the new
31:17
I'm sorry. that Japan is the new
Poland or maybe that's the
31:22
Philippines. Here's here's the
guy from Texas moron. I think
31:26
he's the one that replaced louie
Gohmert
31:28
Unknown: Vladimir Putin is
national address
31:30
this week appeared to confirm
the war in Ukraine is not ending
31:34
anytime soon. Yesterday top lip
and diplomat from China they're
31:39
in. In Moscow. Are we entering
31:43
Adam Curry: a new phase of this
war? A Ukraine phase?
31:48
Unknown: I certainly believe so.
Make no mistake that this war in
31:50
Ukraine is is about more than
just the conflict between Russia
31:55
and Ukraine, and about more than
just that geographic region.
31:59
Truly, this is becoming a proxy
conflict between the United
32:03
States and China, the two
dominant superpowers,
32:06
how about that?
32:07
Adam Curry: What? Yes, no,
32:11
John C Dvorak: no, no, this one
it was on you what your I think
32:14
what you can claim here is that
it was on his mind. But this is
32:19
not a proxy conflict between the
US and China. This is
32:23
Adam Curry: this is this is what
they're saying. This is exactly
32:27
what this is
32:27
John C Dvorak: what they're
thinking, Well, of course,
32:29
Unknown: yes, Truly, this is a
proxy
32:32
Adam Curry: conflict between the
United States is becoming it's
32:34
becoming truly it's becoming a
proxy conflict. Yes, graphic
32:39
Unknown: region. Truly, this is
becoming a proxy conflict
32:42
between the United States and
China, the two dominant
32:45
superpowers economically
throughout the world. And what
32:49
most people seem to forget in
this conflict is, look, if if we
32:53
can't push back hard against
Russian imperialism and Russian
32:57
aggression, in this instance,
we're gonna see greater issues,
33:00
we're gonna have to deal with
down the line by a growing Axis
33:03
of Evil, that being Russia,
North Korea, China, Iran, those
33:08
entities and those countries
that say, we don't want freedom,
33:12
we don't want individual
liberties. And we're going to
33:15
capture the rest of the rest of
the world and push our agenda on
33:18
them. And so we've got to
understand that we have to, we
33:22
have to push the Russians back
out of Ukraine. And if we don't,
33:26
we're going to end up in a
situation where there's greater
33:28
conflict to deal with, and
greater responsibility that
33:31
we're going to have to, we're
going to have to take on so. But
33:34
listen to the Russian invasion
here, it won't stop at Ukraine.
33:39
If we don't stop them. The
Ukrainian stop is going to
33:42
continue through other other
countries. Oh, no, it's
33:44
Adam Curry: going over here.
It's going all over Europe.
33:47
John C Dvorak: I don't know. You
know, they pushed and pushed his
33:48
NATO thing about section five or
rule 10 or whatever it is. And
33:53
yet yet these guys keep saying
stuff like this, which is bull
33:56
crap. Well, and by the way, this
bull crap about if this happens,
34:01
and that happens, and this
happens is that happens. This is
34:03
what got us in the Vietnam War,
according to everybody at the
34:07
time. Oh, yeah. Well, Vietnam
falls in next is the domino
34:11
theory. And it was the domino
theory and so the whole world is
34:15
going to be communist overnight.
34:17
Adam Curry: Well, let's go to
the source of this bullcrap. Her
34:20
name is Anne Applebaum. She is
the one that keeps propagating
34:27
the actually I've two clips and
it's worth playing both of them.
34:31
Now she's married to an
ambassador. I think she's a
34:35
troublemaker.
34:36
John C Dvorak: She's also the
head of a lot of these kind of
34:39
Soros backed operations. I'll
listen
34:41
Adam Curry: listen to her
credentials, which MSNBC Velshi
34:45
Velshi will read them off.
34:47
Unknown: Joining me now is Anne
Applebaum. She's a Pulitzer
34:50
Prize winning historical
historian, a staff writer for
34:52
The Atlantic, a senior fellow at
the Johns Hopkins School of
34:55
Advanced International Studies,
and the Agora Institute. She's
34:59
the author of several Well
important books, including
35:01
twilight of democracy, the
seductive lure of
35:03
authoritarianism, red famine,
Stalin's war on Ukraine and Iron
35:07
Curtain the crushing of Eastern
Europe 1944, the 1950s, do you
35:12
think she has her head up or
brought about this six, there
35:14
may be no one with greater
specialty. And what is happening
35:18
here and thank you for this
evening here in Ukraine, I have
35:23
to ask you now a year in what
you see happening, as we look at
35:27
the situation in Ukraine, what
do
35:29
Adam Curry: you see happening?
35:30
Unknown: I mean, it's a very,
you know, it's a very difficult
35:34
war to assess, because on the
one hand, what's been achieved
35:37
is so extraordinary and was so
unexpected, and yet there is
35:41
still so much further to go. I
mean, this war will end when
35:45
Russia has understood that it
was a mistake. And that means a
35:50
John C Dvorak: voice. What?
She's got the voice, she's got
35:54
the voice of the of the women
that have you know, that
35:57
advertising, whatever you want
to call it. That same? In the
36:02
same meal? You Yes, yes.
Samantha Powers, that woman that
36:06
was an NPR ever all of them?
Yeah.
36:09
Unknown: I mean, this war will
end when Russia understood that
36:14
it was a mistake. And that means
we need to get to that point.
36:18
And that means Ukraine needs to
take back its territory, it
36:22
needs to convince Russia that it
can't win. And we aren't quite
36:25
there yet.
36:26
Adam Curry: Okay, so I like what
I'm hearing because they're
36:28
waffling like, well, you know,
Ukraine has to this will all war
36:32
when Putin realizes they've made
a mistake, and Ukraine has to
36:35
make them realize that, but
let's go to what I'm really
36:39
looking for is the lie. The lie
because whatever Putin only ever
36:45
said this about the Russian
Empire. He said, Anyone who
36:53
doesn't regret the passing of
the Soviet Union has no heart.
36:57
Anyone who wants it restored,
has no brains. That is in the
37:02
New York Times 20th, February
2000. So that second part, just
37:08
like very fine people, that
second part is never mentioned.
37:12
It's always anyone who doesn't
regret the passing of the Soviet
37:15
Union has no heart. So and that
is the only thing he has ever
37:20
said about this. I'm sorry. In
addition to that the demise of
37:24
the Soviet Union was the
greatest geopolitical
37:26
catastrophe of the century. This
is a preamble to that statement.
37:31
As for the Russian people, it
became a genuine tragedy tend to
37:34
millions of our fellow citizens
and countrymen found themselves
37:37
beyond the fringes of Russian
territory. And then anyone who
37:41
doesn't regret the passing of
the Soviet Union has no heart.
37:43
Anyone who wants it restored,
has no brains. Now, let's go to
37:47
Anne Applebaum. She has all the
credentials, she lives in the
37:50
milieu. And she wrote the
literally wrote the book on the
37:54
Russian Empire,
37:55
Unknown: the likelihood of
Vladimir Putin invading a NATO
37:59
country or even sending a
missile into a NATO country
38:01
seems lower now that they've got
most of their military in
38:04
Ukraine right now. But you are
saying that that that message
38:07
hasn't gotten through? Why is
that? Why does Vladimir Putin
38:11
not look at this and say, this
is an abject failure for Russia.
38:17
So this was never about NATO.
That was a lie that he told to
38:21
our security community and to
convince us not to help Ukraine.
38:26
Adam Curry: Guess what, they
were fooled. This was
38:29
Unknown: always about him. It
was about his vision of a
38:33
reconstructed Soviet Union of a
new Russian Empire. And it was
38:37
also always about his desire to
consider to destroy the forces
38:42
of democracy, and liberalism and
open society that he saw
38:46
developing in Ukraine, and which
he perceived as a threat to him
38:50
personally. He's somebody who
has a lot of nostalgia for the
38:53
Soviet Union for the for that
period. He's somebody who sees
38:57
democratic language democratic
activism, and of course, the
39:00
kind of democratic revolution
they had in Ukraine as a threat
39:04
to him. So this has always been
about crashing Ukraine and
39:07
crashing that movement. And he
hasn't achieved that. He's
39:12
attached a lot of his prestige
to that. There's a lot of doubt
39:16
about it around him. We know
that the Russian business
39:18
community in the security
community don't are not 100%
39:22
behind this war, but he
personally believes that his
39:25
power is connected to winning it
and so he has not yet been
39:29
convinced that he won't win. And
there are there are back channel
39:33
conversations and we know he's
not at that stage yet.
39:37
John C Dvorak: So we have cheese
liar.
39:39
Adam Curry: Yes. A massive liar.
39:44
John C Dvorak: Yeah, back to the
China thing. I have a clip.
39:48
Don't overlook this. These are
the clips. McCrone is going to
39:53
China. Oh,
39:54
Adam Curry: yeah. He's the big
piece of peacemaker, a
39:56
peacemaker McCrone, so, let's
39:57
John C Dvorak: go to McCrone,
China peace in Ukraine
40:00
Unknown: French president
Emmanuel Macron says he traveled
40:03
to China in just over a minute.
Discuss the war in Ukraine why?
40:07
On Friday, China released a
peace proposal. Beijing is
40:10
calling for an end to Western
sanctions on Russia, and he's
40:13
urging Moscow and Keith to hold
tours. Acropolis says it's
40:16
important for China to put
pressure on Russia to end the
40:19
war and withdraw from Ukraine.
President Alexander Lukashenko
40:24
has also announced he'll visit
Beijing in the coming days. But
40:28
a rooster is one of Russia's
closest allies. Last year Minsk
40:31
allowed the Kremlin to use its
territory to launch attacks on
40:34
Ukraine. Let's take a close look
at China's peace proposal now.
40:39
It follows talks between the top
Chinese diplomat Wang Yi and
40:42
Russian President Vladimir
Putin. Beijing is calling for an
40:45
end to Western sanctions on
Russia, and urging Moscow and
40:48
Kyiv to hold talks. My proposal
calls for the establishment of
40:52
humanitarian corridors for
civilians, and steps to ensure
40:55
grain that can be safely
exported from Ukraine. It also
40:59
warns against the use of nuclear
weapons in the conflict, as well
41:02
as attacks on nuclear power
plants.
41:05
Adam Curry: Oh, yes, of course.
41:07
John C Dvorak: That seems a lot
different in the reporting a
41:09
China's out to get us.
41:11
Adam Curry: Well, we have to
gaslight the American people
41:14
into being afraid of the
41:15
John C Dvorak: show. That's why
I had to go to Al Jazeera
41:18
England to get that clip as part
two coming up.
41:21
Unknown: But Andy mark is a
senior research fellow at the
41:24
Center for China and
globalization Think Tank. He
41:27
says peace in Ukraine is in the
best interests of China and the
41:30
wider international community.
41:32
I think China as a major
economy, one of the largest
41:36
economies in the world certainly
benefits.
41:38
Adam Curry: Wow, this guy sounds
like Janet Yellen. Is this a
41:42
financial guy? Like a banker?
41:45
John C Dvorak: Yeah, probably
the same milieu
41:47
Adam Curry: Yeah, yeah. Oh,
41:49
Unknown: a major economy. One of
the largest economies in the
41:51
world certainly benefits. From
an end to hostilities unit. Of
41:57
course, this will improve global
sentiment, economic prosperity
42:02
and put the world back on a path
to economic prosperity has
42:06
benefits all countries,
especially larger countries like
42:09
China, I think that's one.
Certainly I think from a
42:13
reputation prestige perspective,
playing a role in bringing this
42:19
conflict to a close by when no
other major power has been able
42:23
to do so certainly, I think
would burnish China's
42:28
reputation. But we also have to
recognize that there's only so
42:32
much an honest broker can do and
sometimes we both sides have to
42:38
fight to a certain amount of
exhaustion before there can be a
42:42
negotiated settlement and
whether we're at this point yet
42:45
or not, I think remains to be
seen
42:48
John C Dvorak: that you
mentioned Yeltsin, by the way or
42:51
Yellen Yeltsin Yeltsin. Chris
Hedges of journalists is good.
42:55
The left wing journalist is very
well regarded. You said Yeltsin.
43:01
Oh, really, Yellen. Yeah, idiot.
Somebody sent me the clip. I
43:04
didn't, I forgot to put it on
here. But maybe he's listening
43:08
to the show.
43:09
Adam Curry: I have. Here's a
Secretary of State, Abe Lincoln,
43:15
on the Russia and China
narrative. Oh, we're also
43:18
hearing from the intel community
that China. Mind you. This is a
43:22
second clip, we've heard the
intel community, the intel
43:26
community community, the intel
community, the community keeps
43:31
telling us keeps telling us. So
we're hearing from the Intel
43:34
Committee, who is the this is
this is these are serious news
43:38
organizations. And they just
throw it out there. Oh, we're
43:41
just hearing from the intel
community. There's 15
43:44
organizations in the intel
community. Why don't you just
43:47
say CIA spooks who are inside
your organization? Oh, we're
43:52
also hearing from the intel
community that
43:54
John C Dvorak: China and the
intel community happens to be at
43:56
this desk. Right. Next right
over here. Oh, we're also
43:59
Unknown: hearing from the intel
community that China is
44:02
considering lethal aid to Russia
in support of their efforts. How
44:06
concerned are you with that? And
what sanctions are on the table
44:10
for preventing it? So we are
concerned? And in fact, that's
44:13
one of the reasons that I made
it public last week. What we've
44:16
seen from day one is, if you go
back to before the invasion
44:20
started, just a couple of weeks
before that. Vladimir Putin and
44:23
President Xi Jinping of China
had a meeting and they said they
44:25
had a partnership with no
limits. We were concerned from
44:28
day one, that that partnership
might result in China providing
44:31
lethal military assistance to
Mike for use in Ukraine. So
44:35
we've said from day one, don't
do it. We have information
44:38
recently that they're now
thinking about doing it. And so
44:41
we tried publicly, to as well as
privately to warn them against
44:44
it. There is no point in adding
fuel to the fire. China's trying
44:48
to have it both ways. They're
trying to present themselves as
44:51
neutral and a party for peace,
while at the same time aiding
44:54
and abetting Russia's war
effort, what
44:56
sanctions are on the table, net
them from providing this aid.
44:59
Well, they're At a multiplicity
of possible, listen to get into
45:03
the details, but what we said to
them greater details, you know,
45:06
meeting I had with our Senior
Foreign Policy official in
45:08
Munich last week is that this
would be a serious problem in
45:11
our relationship. So they're
just
45:13
Adam Curry: setting it up and
it's all for one thing.
45:16
John C Dvorak: We're the ones
setting it up. Yes. And this is
45:19
Adam Curry: all for the military
industrial complex who weave
45:23
right in through the CIA
broadcasting systems and let you
45:26
know that you know, we really
need we don't need more money.
45:31
John C Dvorak: We actually we
need to sell more jets to chuck
45:37
No, no, no, no, no. Went up to
Japan to
45:40
Adam Curry: hold on. You know, I
got a clip. I got a clip.
45:43
Unknown: The production line at
the Lockheed Martin plant in
45:46
Arkansas is gearing up to turn
out one new rocket every 10
45:50
minutes.
45:52
Adam Curry: We can't kill enough
people want every 30 minutes.
45:57
Unknown: It's part of the $30
million year 10
45:59
John C Dvorak: What was it? 30
or 10. I thought he said
46:05
Unknown: the production line at
the Lockheed Martin plant in
46:07
Arkansas is gearing up to turn
out one new rocket every 10
46:11
minutes.
46:12
Adam Curry: 10 minutes.
46:13
Unknown: I'm sorry, it's six an
hour. It's part of the $30
46:16
billion in weapons the US has
committed to Ukraine, but just a
46:20
fraction of the Pentagon
staggering $858 billion defense
46:25
budget. This is darn close to
being the biggest defense budget
46:29
that we have ever had. Since
World War Two. The only time the
46:32
US spent more on defense was at
the height of the wars in Iraq
46:36
and Afghanistan. We
46:37
Adam Curry: can do better boys.
46:39
Unknown: Oren Thompson of the
Lexington Institute says nearly
46:42
a third of that is spent on
weapons
46:44
that is the amount of money that
outstrips the entire economy of
46:48
most European countries.
46:50
Yet the Pentagon is hard pressed
Ukraine supplied with ammunition
46:55
for a couple of key
46:56
items the stockpile is getting
low what is low mean? We're at a
47:01
level where the risk for other
war plans becomes great
47:06
Adam Curry: what I love this
statement so what is what we're
47:09
supposed to think we need new
factory well we need it because
47:12
of China but I just love how he
says well other war plans we got
47:15
we got war plans we got you want
some more plans. Just get my
47:20
folder for some more war plan.
Doug
47:21
Unknown: Powell is getting low.
What is low mean? We're at a
47:25
level where the risk for other
war plans becomes great.
47:30
Other war plans hired Marine
colonel Mark Kassian of the
47:33
Center for Strategic and
International Studies, says
47:36
Ukraine's use of artillery
shells far outstrips the
47:40
Pentagon's capacity to make
47:42
that using about as much in a
month as
47:44
we produced in the year, if the
US can't keep Ukraine supplied
47:47
in its fight against a decrepit
Russian military. What would
47:51
happen to American forces in a
war against the number one
47:55
threat
47:57
was critically short of a couple
of key munitions, particularly
48:01
long range, anti ship missiles
48:03
can see and recently directed a
war game in which the US tried
48:07
to stop a Chinese invasion of
Taiwan to the US. And these four
48:11
games actually run out of these
long range anti ship missiles.
48:15
Yes, the US ran out of these
missiles in the first few days
48:18
of the week, look
48:19
John C Dvorak: at Hold on a
second. Let's stop and start
48:21
analyzing this right now. Are
these missiles any good? Well,
48:27
they take out a ship or they're
just shooting them left and
48:29
right. Are they are they
artillery shells being fired by
48:32
the Ukrainians joke? Are they
just firing them randomly?
48:37
Likely they used one. In one
month, they used up the entire
48:43
supply that it took us a year to
manufacture? Well, you know, one
48:47
month,
48:47
Adam Curry: I would say that
they shot off a third and the
48:51
other shoulder to Africa. Yes, I
would say it's all in Africa.
48:56
Now. That's our third froze
48:58
John C Dvorak: that. That's a
extrapolation of some logic. But
49:03
if but if you look at his
straight up, and they tell you
49:06
that the Ukrainians have used
these big candy shells, you
49:09
can't aim them. They either
can't aim or they what they're
49:14
doing where they're no good and
shooting him straight up. Who
49:17
knows what they're up to?
49:18
Adam Curry: It's no good. But
we're drawing the line. We're
49:24
drawing the line now. And I
think that's because, well,
49:28
here's the clip and then we'll
dissect it. This is now we're at
49:32
ABC David Muir, who had an
interview with the President. I
49:36
have a lot of clips, but I'll
just cherry pick here.
49:38
Unknown: We know that Germans
are now sending tanks in after
49:40
the US that it would send Abrams
tanks as well. But we know
49:44
President Solinsky continues to
say what he really needs are f6
49:48
teams. Will you send up 60s?
49:50
Look, look, we're saying what
our seasoned military thinks you
49:56
need to know. He needs tanks in
either Tillery he needs air
50:01
defense, including another
Highmore. There's things he
50:04
needs now that we're sending him
to put him in a position to be
50:08
able to make games this spring
and this summer going into the
50:11
fall. I don't think he needs F
16. Now he doesn't need f 60s
50:14
Now,
50:14
is that a never?
50:17
Look, first of all, look, the
idea that we know exactly what's
50:23
going to be needed to year to
three now, but there is no basis
50:26
upon which there is a rationale
according our military now to
50:31
provide F 60s, but you're not
ruling it out. I am early enough
50:35
for now.
50:35
Adam Curry: For now, this is
really interesting.
50:38
John C Dvorak: So first ways mu
are pushing this?
50:41
Adam Curry: Well. Listen, I have
the same question being pushed
50:45
by Stephanie rule over on MSNBC,
50:48
Unknown: President Zelensky has
been pressing the US for f 16
50:51
fighter jets. And here's what
President Biden said tonight,
50:54
when he was asked about that
50:55
we're sending him What are
season military seasons now
51:01
Adam Curry: season military, the
guy with the face mask,
51:04
Unknown: he needs to he needs to
every he needs, including
51:08
another Highmore, there's things
he needs now that we're sending
51:12
him to put them in a position to
be able to make gains in the
51:15
spring, and this summer, going
into the fall, you don't think
51:18
he needs F 16. Now he doesn't
need f 60s. Now there is no
51:22
basis upon which there is a
rationale, according to our
51:25
military now, to provide F 60s,
but you're not ruling it out. I
51:30
am really enough for now.
51:31
Adam Curry: So that's MSNBC,
replaying ABCs interview to
51:36
drive home the point no jets for
Ukraine, and I can only think
51:41
that means we need to send them
to Taiwan, or to Malaysia or
51:45
somewhere nearby
51:46
John C Dvorak: or want to send I
don't think that's possible. But
51:50
I think that that whole thing's
me, it'd be nice to send him
51:53
there. Because it's good sales.
But this whole thing seems to be
51:57
orchestrated by General
Dynamics. Well, that was their
52:02
goal was to sell the F 16. And
they wanted they I understood
52:05
they're gonna stop making them.
And
52:08
Adam Curry: also, they don't
have enough. The first thought
52:11
that came to my mind was, no one
wants to put more money into the
52:15
F 35. They don't have anything
really ready to fund yet. Like,
52:20
it's like, we're not ready for
that conversation. Because we'll
52:23
be you know, you send over the
if we send over the F 16. What
52:26
do we have left?
52:29
John C Dvorak: We have stuff we
won't send or like the F 22?
52:32
Would Yeah, yeah. This didn't
like given that to anybody.
52:37
Because if your first thing it
will happen to the F 22 is
52:39
somehow the Russians will end up
with it.
52:44
Adam Curry: The whole thing.
This is, I mean, we're being gas
52:47
lit about China being I mean,
really big time, and it's just
52:51
report after report after
report. Oh, China, oh, China.
52:55
It's all moving away from Trump.
It's all moving away from
52:59
Ukraine. It's all moving towards
China. So now, you know, it's
53:03
the it's the proxy war, the
proxy conflict we have?
53:07
John C Dvorak: Well China has to
do is just shut off all exports
53:11
to us, but they'd be screwed up
that they won't do that because
53:14
it's for themselves. But I do
have a bunch of clips. But
53:19
Adam Curry: one more things it
before you. First, I
53:21
John C Dvorak: want to get this
out of the way, which is your
53:24
prediction. Excuse me, that this
war is going to be over soon.
53:30
Oh, um, yeah, I'm not personally
I don't see it. But I will say
53:34
you have a confirming clip that
I have here. And this is on the
53:41
Brooks and cape.
53:44
Adam Curry: That Brooks and K
part that that can never be
53:46
taken as evidence or proof of
anything. I have to
53:50
John C Dvorak: I totally
disagree. This is this is Brooks
53:54
predicting his books predicting
when the war will end. Oh,
54:00
Adam Curry: this is gonna are
there sound effects in this 13
54:03
second bite, no doubt
54:05
Unknown: autocracy. And we could
see that after we see what
54:08
happens with the spring
offensive.
54:09
Do you see this stretching
another year? David? For sure.
54:12
Yeah, but I see us holding still
and hold the West holding firm.
54:18
Adam Curry: Go for another year?
For sure. He
54:20
John C Dvorak: says he said for
sure. I mean, it's over. Yeah, I
54:25
definitely say that's
confirmation for you. All right,
54:28
this guy has never been right
about anything. I have
54:33
Adam Curry: three clips to wind
that up. And then then we'll be
54:35
done with the war is over.
Because we had a big un get
54:40
together. Which right away the
Russians disturbed the whole the
54:45
whole peaceful process. Security
Council is called to order from
54:50
that. So we had the Ukrainian
ambassador to the UN, and he
54:54
wanted a moment of silence for
all the dead Ukrainians
54:58
Unknown: in the Security Council
chamber. Ukraine's Foreign
55:01
Minister wanted to remember the
cost of the past year, the cost
55:05
of Russia's invasion.
55:07
I kindly ask everyone to observe
a minute of silence in memory of
55:14
the victims of the aggression,
55:16
that Russia is representative
here interrupted the silence. He
55:19
had another idea perished all
and lives.
55:26
And that is why we're rising to
honor the memory of them all.
55:30
Adam Curry: So he said, No, no,
we are rising for all dead, not
55:33
just your dead.
55:35
Unknown: The Russian version of
history is that Ukraine started
55:38
all this, the Russian version of
history. I love it. The minute
55:41
silence resumed, he had
successfully sees Wow, what is
55:46
with these people? They were in
this chamber A year ago,
55:48
exactly. When Vladimir Putin in
Moscow chose to announce his
55:52
move on Ukraine. It represented
a total rejection of this
55:56
chamber, this institution and
the global order it tries to
55:59
preserve and this anniversary
was a chance to count the cost.
56:04
Adam Curry: Right. So then they
you know, they had a resolution
56:07
which says, Russia, bad Ukraine
good. And everyone signed off on
56:11
a China didn't sign off on it.
In Berlin, they, they drove a
56:17
Russian tank, that one that had
been burned out, and placed it
56:22
in front of the Russian Embassy
in Berlin as like, hey, you
56:25
know, this is what we're doing
to you. And what happened was
56:28
quite the opposite to what was
expected. People started laying
56:31
flowers on top of this Russian
tank that had burned out, so
56:37
people are kind of done with
this. In fact, before before I
56:42
play my, my, my coup de gras,
the here's the, what's his face,
56:49
Hakeem Jeffries. Now we only
really know Hakeem Jeffries.
56:54
Because he almost well, they he
could have been speaker of the
56:57
house.
56:57
John C Dvorak: No, he didn't
almost at all. Well, didn't
57:00
almost he couldn't have been if
it was a serious thing did last.
57:04
Now the last thing the Democrats
are going to really do if
57:08
they're actually going to choose
a true one, if they had the
57:10
chance to would not be this
guy's as he's a figurehead.
57:14
Adam Curry: So he's from
Brooklyn, he's in Brooklyn. He's
57:17
doing a town hall on what looks
like a throne. I don't know
57:20
where he was. And this guy, Jose
Vega, who seems like he may be
57:25
an Instagramer, or whatever, I
don't know him, and the audio
57:29
switches and switches back. So
it'll sound a little boomy for a
57:32
moment. But he really railed on
this guy about what's going on,
57:36
in particular, in regards to the
lack of questions or even
57:40
willingness to understand the
article that Seymour Hersh wrote
57:44
about the United States blowing
up the Nord Stream pipelines.
57:48
Unknown: The UN Security Council
had a meeting yesterday, and Ray
57:51
McGovern spoke to it. He is a
former member of the CIA. And he
57:55
testified in support of Seymour
Hersh, his article on the United
57:58
States bombing Nord Stream
pipeline. If it is proven that
58:03
the United States bombed the
Nord Stream two pipeline, as has
58:06
been asserted by Seymour Hersh
and his article, will you call
58:10
for the United States to
acknowledge and admit that that
58:14
was an act of war against
Germany and Russia. And I'm
58:16
asking this because this may be
the only way to prevent the rest
58:20
of us from being killed in a
thermonuclear war.
58:23
Adam Curry: And this is the
gaslighting that's going on,
58:25
we're gonna fry and I don't
58:26
Unknown: want to be fried. Don't
you think the media should be
58:29
reporting on whether or not this
is true? And don't you think you
58:31
should be inquiring into whether
or not this is true,
58:34
Adam Curry: valid question from
the constituent, but are we
58:36
going to answer?
58:39
Unknown: Well, thank you for the
question. One, I've got no
58:42
information to suggest that the
United States was involved in
58:46
bombing the Nord Stream
pipeline,
58:48
because he wouldn't, you
wouldn't you would have been you
58:51
weren't briefed on it. Or you
got your chance to switch? Good
58:56
information because he
explicitly says you weren't
59:00
fires.
59:01
So here's what I'll say about I
think the President minds
59:05
leadership generally, as it
relates to the Ukraine and
59:10
Russia, we
59:11
committed an act of war. What
are you doing to respond to
59:14
that? We have the whole Biden
accountable. Listen, you from
59:17
Brooklyn, right? You know when
to call bullshit when you see
59:21
this is bullshit right now. And
I see why happening right now.
59:25
That does not silence me. So you
can hit me right now. I want you
59:28
to say something about the
bombings because we're all going
59:32
to die from a nuclear war right
now. At least put in inquire
59:38
into whether or not it's true.
This war in Ukraine is gonna
59:42
leave us all dead. So what are
you going to do because you need
59:45
to inquire I'm a New Yorker.
59:48
is what I'll say. We're gonna
continue to stand with the
59:50
Ukrainian or against police.
59:58
We need courts. Get
1:00:01
your hands on beats we need.
1:00:04
Adam Curry: Well, you know how
that ends? Of course.
1:00:05
John C Dvorak: Yeah, keeps
going. Yeah, that guy gets
1:00:07
thrown and probably on his ass.
And
1:00:10
Adam Curry: the worst part is
you hear people applauding for
1:00:12
Hakeem Jeffries to continue so
brave to continue with this
1:00:15
heckler. So brave. So we have
people who realize what's going
1:00:19
on, but they've been gaslighted
and thinking we're all gonna
1:00:21
fry. And in fact, yeah, well,
that actually makes it more
1:00:24
interesting. A lot of people
think that. So here, here's the
1:00:27
salvation. They are actually
putting it together. This is the
1:00:31
Ukraine's prosecutor. He's the
acting something or other. This
1:00:36
is from Deutsche Avella. And
that'll be the last one we play.
1:00:39
This is about the I have a more
clear, I don't know, the last
1:00:43
one I'll play. This is on the
war ending. I'm just saying this
1:00:46
is where the war ends. And it
ends with this new this new at
1:00:52
court, this new entity, and the
crime, the crime is the act of
1:00:57
aggression center
1:00:58
Unknown: to investigate crimes
of aggression against Ukraine by
1:01:01
Russia was is to be set up soon
in The Hague in the Netherlands.
1:01:05
You mentioned earlier, the
special tribunal that you want
1:01:08
to set up to try Russia for the
crime of aggression. The ICC has
1:01:13
no jurisdiction about this
crime. We know many Western
1:01:18
countries are rather reluctant.
Do you think that this idea of a
1:01:22
special tribunal is gaining
traction? And is it for you
1:01:26
because you want to see Vladimir
Putin sit in front of a court?
1:01:32
First of all, I would like to
mention that for any Ukrainian,
1:01:36
it doesn't matter in front of
which court will see it whatever
1:01:40
Putin, whether it will be the
International Criminal Court in
1:01:43
The Hague, or whether it will be
special Tribunal for the crime
1:01:47
of arrest, you know, which I
believe would be set up and
1:01:50
would be organized by the
countries who who know that act
1:01:54
of aggression was committed, who
know that there is a gap in
1:01:57
international law
1:01:58
Adam Curry: gap in international
law, which,
1:02:01
Unknown: which does not allow by
existing tools to punish the
1:02:06
aggressor for the act of
aggression, and which know that
1:02:08
only establishing of special
court or special tribunal bash
1:02:12
we could make Putin and his
close surrounding liable,
1:02:16
responsible for committing crime
of aggression because if crime
1:02:20
of aggression would not have
been committed, there would be
1:02:23
no 68,000 war crimes committed
then they are after
1:02:28
Adam Curry: you see, it's the
act of aggression that resulted
1:02:31
in the war crime. So it is the
OG first principle violation
1:02:36
Unknown: six months ago, we have
no support, we have just
1:02:40
discussion. Now we have 20
countries who are ready to go
1:02:43
ahead. Now we are in in course
of having the resolution of
1:02:50
General Assembly of United
Nation which is prepared for the
1:02:54
next months in order to to
support the idea of full or
1:03:00
comprehensive accountability of
the of Russian aggressor,
1:03:04
including all war crimes
committed by them, including
1:03:08
register of damage and
compensation, compensation,
1:03:11
taking the money and including
all other elements which not
1:03:14
only punish the aggressor by in
all dimensions, but also should
1:03:20
deter any future aggressor, in
any part of the globe from
1:03:25
committing aggression.
1:03:26
Adam Curry: Then you'll just be
able to say to your parents,
1:03:28
you're committing a crime of
aggression against me mom.
1:03:33
John C Dvorak: Well, that brings
up this interesting little
1:03:35
tidbit says they're gonna do a
war crime stuff. And this came
1:03:39
out from I think, a fairly
neutral Al Jazeera who's doesn't
1:03:42
really have a dog in the
Ukraine, Ukraine war crimes.
1:03:49
Unknown: Human Rights Watch has
accused Russia of carrying out
1:03:52
indiscriminate attacks against
civilians, and Ukrainian forces
1:03:55
of violating laws of war. It's
gathered testimony about alleged
1:03:59
mistreatment and summary
executions of prisoners of war,
1:04:03
as well as the use of banned
weapons. Human Rights Watch says
1:04:07
Ukrainian forces used Euro gun
cluster munition rockets in an
1:04:10
attack on Hasakah in Harkey
region. From May to early
1:04:14
September, Ukrainian forces
repeatedly attacked the city of
1:04:16
vizeum and surrounding areas
while they were under Russian
1:04:19
control with cluster munitions,
1:04:22
Adam Curry: man we got to cut
Algis ear off of our cable
1:04:24
network war crimes by by Ukraine
of course cluster phosphates,
1:04:30
cluster bombs with phosphate
we've all seen the video. Sure.
1:04:34
Now
1:04:36
John C Dvorak: I have two clips
of Biden in Poland.
1:04:41
Adam Curry: I have a couple of
those All right.
1:04:45
John C Dvorak: First of all, I
want this these buoys jacked by
1:04:48
the way
1:04:49
Adam Curry: yeah, they put him
on some extra
1:04:51
John C Dvorak: ease Yellin doses
got hairy legs, he's got that
1:04:54
Yellin thing going on. So he so
he but but the play These
1:05:00
strange songs I have one at the
beginning and one at the end and
1:05:03
I don't know what why don't they
play Hail to the Chief for a
1:05:06
Sousa band March something
American or not hip hop. And I
1:05:13
here's the first part this is
Biden Poland speech jacked one.
1:05:18
And this will be Biden being
introduced to Polish audience
1:05:23
with the with the music.
1:05:24
Unknown: Ladies and gentlemen,
please welcome the 46th
1:05:29
President of the United States
of America, Joe Biden.
1:05:47
Adam Curry: Okay, so stop, I
stopped this is wow. So for some
1:05:55
reason, someone in the Obama
camp thought that it would
1:05:59
translate to do what you can do
with President Obama. You can do
1:06:03
that with President Obama. You
can do that with Joe Biden. No
1:06:07
one No one takes his his musical
chops seriously, and even just
1:06:10
seeing how Trump would do it.
This is crazy. Freedom, freedom.
1:06:17
Oh, yeah, it was so I can just
see the meeting. It was so
1:06:20
impactful when everyone's
singing along freedom, freedom
1:06:24
and has a president. He's gonna
set them free.
1:06:27
John C Dvorak: I guess it's
probably the same song they
1:06:29
played at the end, but they
played it from a different
1:06:31
starting point, but but I have
the medley of course, my famous
1:06:36
Biden medley of his commentary
in his speech, and at the end of
1:06:41
this medley. It will play the
beginning of the second version
1:06:45
of this this Outro Song which I
just thought was ludicrous. But
1:06:49
here we go with Biden Poland
medley
1:06:52
Adam Curry: Yeah, and if anyone
can Shazam that in the troll
1:06:56
room, I'd love to know what it
is. Hello. Hello, Cleveland.
1:07:05
Unknown: The questions we face
for as simple as they were
1:07:08
profound. What do we respond? Or
where do we look the other way?
1:07:13
Would we be strong? Where do we
weak would be you we would we
1:07:18
the all our allies, democracy
was too strong. Instead of an
1:07:22
easy victory he perceived and
predicted food left with burnout
1:07:27
tanks and rushes forces and
delay induced appetites of the
1:07:31
autoCrat cannot be appeased.
They must be opposed. On a fresh
1:07:37
only understand one word. No,
no, no. It's abhorrent. It's
1:07:44
abhorrent, but extraordinarily,
as well as been the response of
1:07:49
the Ukrainian people and the
world. One year after the bombs
1:07:54
began to fall Russian tanks
rolling Ukraine, Ukraine still
1:07:59
independent and free and all
those who didn't do defend
1:08:03
freedom around the world. Thank
you. Thank you. Thank you for
1:08:06
what you're doing.
1:08:22
Adam Curry: Wow, it's like a
real Americana song to anyone.
1:08:29
John C Dvorak: I just found it
to be what are they doing? I
1:08:33
mean, bide managed to get
through the speech without too
1:08:36
many flubs, except, there's only
one word to understand. No, no,
1:08:40
no, that's three words. I hate
to mention it.
1:08:46
Adam Curry: Is this Coldplay?
Eiffel. Oh, that's so wrong.
1:08:52
Really? Hold on a sec. Is that
is that let's see if it's called
1:08:55
play that would trip. Yeah,
there it is. That's it. Yeah.
1:08:59
That's so wrong. Coldplay is
king. Don't you know that?
1:09:06
Unknown: Coldplay?
1:09:07
Adam Curry: No, it's just it's
like it's when it's the gay we
1:09:10
don't listen to Coldplay
anymore. It's good. said Yeah,
1:09:14
not really gay, but it's just
like wrong. It's lame. Lame.
1:09:19
It's lame. It's lame. It's lame.
A Sky Full of Stars. Oh,
1:09:25
brother.
1:09:26
John C Dvorak: I that's what I'm
shaking my head. Watch this. I
1:09:30
don't know this song. But cotton
1:09:31
Adam Curry: ball. I don't
either, but Cold Play. Are you
1:09:34
kidding me?
1:09:36
John C Dvorak: This is this is
your your Coldplay? Women in the
1:09:39
White House. This is the
1:09:41
Adam Curry: the White House
You're right. Exactly. What
1:09:44
woman and I hate to say it that
way. But what woman came up with
1:09:48
Coldplay? That's not a masculine
song of freedom.
1:09:56
John C Dvorak: Jill Biden.
1:09:58
Adam Curry: I think you're
right. goes home.
1:10:00
John C Dvorak: He's gonna go
he's gonna skip it off to one of
1:10:02
the Obama aides that would just
don't
1:10:05
Adam Curry: know. This is
totally a Joe Biden. i What's
1:10:08
the guy's name from Coldplay?
1:10:11
John C Dvorak: I don't know.
Yeah. Somebody the chairwoman
1:10:14
Oh, she'll bite who wore that
crazy outrageous.
1:10:18
Adam Curry: Christmas. I love
Chris. Chris Martin. I want
1:10:22
let's play his song. Maybe we
can get a meet and greet.
1:10:26
John C Dvorak: Yep, challenge.
Totally. Jill Biden.
1:10:28
Adam Curry: Yep. fan girl.
fangirling. Over Coldplay told
1:10:32
you okay. I mean that in a
certain way.
1:10:36
John C Dvorak: Yeah, we know who
we are plenty of gay listeners.
1:10:41
Yeah. They invest. They know
what we're talking about. I
1:10:44
Adam Curry: do. The first ones.
I got Chris Martin. Yeah, pretty
1:10:48
good. Yeah, man. Oh, man. That
is? I mean, that's. That's bad.
1:10:55
You don't want to be represented
by Coldplay?
1:11:00
John C Dvorak: Well, I didn't
see any commentary in the media
1:11:02
about any of it.
1:11:03
Adam Curry: Now. I have a couple
other Biden clips because David
1:11:07
Muir did an interview with him.
You have any? They're short, if
1:11:12
you have any desire to hear some
China? No, that's too long.
1:11:17
That's not short. She spy
balloon?
1:11:20
John C Dvorak: Is there any way
this? Is there any or he says
1:11:23
look.
1:11:25
Adam Curry: Oh, and let me just
grab any clip that
1:11:27
Unknown: Vladimir Putin told the
Russian people this week that
1:11:29
China's President Xi is coming
to Russia, likely as early as
1:11:33
this spring. I know the State
Department and the Pentagon now
1:11:37
have both warned China not to
offer lethal military assistance
1:11:41
to Russia in this war with
Ukraine saying the US is
1:11:44
concerned that China is
considering providing lethal
1:11:47
support to Russia. Would that
cross a line for you? Book?
1:11:54
John C Dvorak: A needle drop.
1:11:57
Unknown: I had a very frank
conversation with President Xi,
1:12:01
this past summer on this issue.
And I pointed out to him my
1:12:06
conversation went like this. I
said, Mr. President, this is not
1:12:11
a threat. It's just an assertion
a statement. What I think the
1:12:14
reality is, you saw what
happened when the rest of the
1:12:17
world Europe, in particular, saw
the brutality of what Putin was
1:12:23
doing in Ukraine, Ukraine, us
from Russia. And I said without
1:12:28
any government product 600
American corporations left, left
1:12:35
Russia and McDonald's to Exxon.
Across the board, not really.
1:12:39
And I said if you are engaged in
the same kind of brutality by
1:12:43
supporting the brutality is
going on. I said you may face
1:12:46
the same consequence. I don't
anticipate. We haven't seen it
1:12:50
yet. But I don't anticipate a
major initiative on the part of
1:12:54
China providing weaponry to to
to Russia.
1:12:59
John C Dvorak: What does he
mention in the in this whole
1:13:02
interview that China is trying
to be a peace broker?
1:13:05
Adam Curry: No, of course not.
No, no, no, no, no, I can't take
1:13:10
something out. We can't have
that. No, that was actually I,
1:13:14
by
1:13:15
John C Dvorak: the way, I'm
starting to decode Biden's
1:13:18
tells, okay, he has, because he
did it when he's really. When he
1:13:24
first got to Poland. He was
being greeted at this big round
1:13:29
table. And I have some clips. I
don't have money for today, but
1:13:32
I have them. And he's telling
these stupid stories about his
1:13:37
dad and dignity and all the rest
of it. And he has two things he
1:13:41
does. He says this is a true
story. This is God's honest
1:13:45
truth. Yeah. lie. Lie. Oh, that
is
1:13:48
Adam Curry: true. Oh, that it's
that it's a true story. the
1:13:50
God's honest truth
1:13:51
John C Dvorak: or because that
contrast? was no joke. I'm not
1:13:55
kidding. No joke, right? No
joke. I'm not kidding. No joke,
1:13:58
because he'll say something
that's not even remotely funny.
1:14:02
That's a blatant lie. Yeah. And
then he'll throw in no joke.
1:14:07
Yeah.
1:14:09
Adam Curry: Right. But when he
when he tells those stories
1:14:12
about his dad as a dad in a
desert Joey sweetheart, I know.
1:14:17
I'd never believe that. Did his
dad's a joey sweethearts and
1:14:19
him? I don't believe it. I don't
know. Doesn't really matter. The
1:14:24
guy's toast. It's, I'm astounded
at how good he's doing. He's
1:14:28
doing quite well, actually.
1:14:30
John C Dvorak: Well, when you
hear him in at this big round
1:14:32
table thing is and no joke. He's
just just a mess. And then they
1:14:37
get him in front of his audience
and they were they've jacked and
1:14:40
would like to know what it is.
But they got him jacked on some
1:14:44
speed balls. And he's screaming
he's talks louder.
1:14:51
Adam Curry: Yeah, I guess pretty
passionate. That's what we call
1:14:53
that a diplomatic speak.
1:14:54
John C Dvorak: And he's got the
grouchy his look on his face and
1:14:57
his Polish speech. He's got to
look at that guy. Always a
1:15:00
puppeteer. ventriloquist. His
wife
1:15:02
Adam Curry: is bringing Chris
Martin in on the soundtrack. Of
1:15:05
course, he's grumpy.
1:15:07
John C Dvorak: This downturn,
Molly's just grumpy looking, I
1:15:10
mean, he's really grumpy
looking. And he's yelling, he's
1:15:13
grumpy and yelling.
1:15:16
Adam Curry: So So from foreign
policy to domestic policy. Let's
1:15:21
talk about East Palestine, shall
we?
1:15:24
Unknown: I want to ask you about
a couple of issues here at home.
1:15:28
It's been three weeks now since
the toxic train derailment in
1:15:31
East Palestine, Ohio, that I
like
1:15:33
Adam Curry: this alliteration.
Everyone's using the toxic train
1:15:36
derailment. I kind of liked
that. I liked that they've
1:15:39
chosen that
1:15:40
Unknown: now since the toxic
train derailment in East
1:15:43
palestino. Ohio. As you know,
the mayor says he saw you in
1:15:46
Ukraine. And he says it tells
you he doesn't care about us.
1:15:50
They're asking Is the President
coming to Ohio? Do you have any
1:15:55
plan to travel to Ohio? And have
you talked with the mayor yet?
1:15:58
Adam Curry: Now? This one should
be a pretty simple one. Yeah, of
1:16:02
course, I'm gonna come course we
just have to work out the
1:16:04
logistics. And the mayor. Yeah,
of course. I've talked to the
1:16:08
mayor.
1:16:08
Unknown: Let's put this in
perspective. Within two hours of
1:16:13
that derailment, the EPA was in
there within two hours to how
1:16:16
every major agency in the United
States government that had
1:16:20
anything to do with rail and or
cleanup, was there and is there
1:16:24
no, in addition to that I've
spoken at length to the
1:16:28
Congress, persons, governors,
the senators and governors
1:16:32
states of Pennsylvania and, and
in Ohio, Ohio, Ohio. Yes. And
1:16:37
I've made it clear to them
anything they need is available,
1:16:40
we'll make it available to
whatever happens is the
1:16:43
responsibility of the railroad
company who's made by the way
1:16:47
10s of billions of dollars in
profits 1000s of billions of
1:16:51
dollars of profits.
1:16:52
Adam Curry: What an ass. By the
way, 10s it just let's shift
1:16:56
that away from us. 10s of
billions of dollars in profits,
1:16:59
those horrible railroad people
who are responsible.
1:17:02
Unknown: So do you plan to
travel there? And have you
1:17:03
talked with the mayor?
1:17:04
I can't recall that. I don't
think I've talked to them. Or
1:17:07
I've talked to everyone else.
Multiple times. Yeah. Talked
1:17:10
about the senators, both both
governors I've talked to talk
1:17:15
to, and we made it clear that
everything is available.
1:17:18
Adam Curry: Yeah. Just talk to
anybody. Yeah. Not a nobody. Not
1:17:22
a good look. Not a good luck.
1:17:25
Unknown: Shoo, shoo, shoo, shoo,
shoo.
1:17:27
John C Dvorak: You know what I
think? If we had honest
1:17:29
government, you'd have the guy.
Say, I've, I'm remiss for not
1:17:35
contacting these people. I'm
very familiar with what happened
1:17:38
there. But to be honest about
it. I'm very familiar with the
1:17:42
potential damaging effects of
even breathing vinyl chloride,
1:17:47
it causes an irreparable and
curable liver cancer that will
1:17:52
kill you in five days. And I
have no plans of going anywhere
1:17:56
near that place.
1:17:58
Adam Curry: Yes, this is why
you're a podcaster. This is
1:18:01
you're not gonna presidential
adviser on his answers.
1:18:07
John C Dvorak: No, that's what
I'd say. Yeah,
1:18:10
Adam Curry: I hear you. It was
interesting to see a Wall Street
1:18:13
Journal now. Just to wrap up
China. Now saying, Yep, looks
1:18:17
like it was a lab leak. That's
where they're at. Did you Did
1:18:25
you see what Scott Adams did?
1:18:29
John C Dvorak: Ah, well, I
believe you brought it up. Yes.
1:18:33
I'm very familiar with what
Scott Adams did.
1:18:35
Adam Curry: I want to give him
props. He pulled a Kanye. I kind
1:18:40
of appreciate that. I kind of
appreciate it. And he literally
1:18:44
threw Dilbert under the bus for
him to make yourself under the
1:18:48
bus then himself. Well, he is
Dilbert. threw himself under the
1:18:52
bus has no qualms about being
canceled.
1:18:55
John C Dvorak: Calls. No.
1:18:57
Adam Curry: Yeah. Well, I fear
for him because once he finds
1:19:01
out that it's not that fun when
YouTube kicks you off, because
1:19:04
then you really you're nobody,
you know, you can't be Scott
1:19:08
Adams just on rumble.
1:19:10
John C Dvorak: He can't be.
Can't be anybody on row.
1:19:13
Exactly.
1:19:13
Adam Curry: You can't be Scott
Adams just just on locals. And
1:19:17
and by his own admission, he
loves attention. But I thought
1:19:21
that was
1:19:22
John C Dvorak: funny. Wait,
before you continue. I want to
1:19:25
hear this. But he I think
believes that locals is really
1:19:31
the future.
1:19:33
Adam Curry: Yeah, so I think he
has an investment in it as well.
1:19:35
John C Dvorak: Yeah. And so I
think what you're saying is not
1:19:39
it's not fathomable bowl to him,
know that you can get kicked off
1:19:45
YouTube. I don't think he
understands it.
1:19:48
Adam Curry: Well. of it. He's
making the same mistake Kanye
1:19:51
made Kanye thought that Oh, no,
I'll just I'll buy. What was it?
1:19:56
The other social media network?
The canvas Oh,
1:20:00
John C Dvorak: Oh yes, we forgot
already. We
1:20:02
Adam Curry: don't even know what
it's called anymore. The one
1:20:05
that was taken down, come on
trolls Give it to me. So it's
1:20:09
this parlor? No. Oh, yeah, I'll
just buy parlor. Oh, no, just be
1:20:13
on locals. It's the future. No,
you won't parlay. Now what he
1:20:17
did purposefully. And I think he
pushed it very, very, very if
1:20:22
not over the edge. You know, it
was to me immediately. I'm like,
1:20:26
oh, you know, here's the most
interesting part of this is this
1:20:30
clip that was going around of
him saying, Oh, if you're a
1:20:32
white person, you should walk
away from black people. Without
1:20:35
the context of the whole Clippy
set it up that way. What was
1:20:39
most interesting is people
saying this has to be a deep
1:20:42
fake. That was that was the
telling moment to me. Wow.
1:20:47
People won't even believe
something they can see and hear.
1:20:50
And, you know, Scott Adams is
quite unique in his speech
1:20:54
pattern. There are a lot of
people who thought it was a deep
1:20:57
fake and not true.
1:20:59
John C Dvorak: And I missed that
doll.
1:21:03
Adam Curry: But the bottom line
is he said, No, we're we're
1:21:07
effectively committing racism
against white people. That's
1:21:11
pretty much the bottom line of
what he was saying. He's He's
1:21:14
waffling around it a bit. But he
says no one disagrees with me
1:21:19
on, on what on the facts of what
I was saying. And he did a, he
1:21:24
says the only interview he'll do
was with Hotep Hotep. Jesus when
1:21:28
I watched the whole thing, and
it was really good that he said,
1:21:32
I did this exactly, for this
reason, and I was gonna get rid
1:21:35
of Dilbert. Anyway, he's written
out. He probably has as much
1:21:38
money as Kanye, probably up
there in the $400 million range.
1:21:42
And he's just so he this is what
he this is the postie. He may or
1:21:47
may not die on I don't think
it's over for him. Honestly, I
1:21:52
don't think I think he has a
there's a possibility that it
1:21:56
won't happen that way. Which
would really show white
1:22:00
supremacy. Because he did the
same thing as Kanye. But Kanye
1:22:06
is gone. And Scott Adams may
just make it out. We'll see. But
1:22:11
anyway, props. I gotta say, I'm
not a huge fan, because he's
1:22:14
full of shit. I don't like how
he does stuff. In my personal
1:22:18
opinion, it just I don't like
the messing with your audience
1:22:22
trying to, you know, play
slippery Dickey on everything.
1:22:25
Well, here's what I said. Here's
what I meant. But I got respect
1:22:29
for this.
1:22:32
John C Dvorak: It was definitely
a moment that it'll be
1:22:34
interesting to follow. Yeah.
Yeah, for sure. But the white or
1:22:39
black, it's a third rail.
1:22:42
Adam Curry: Oh, he totally,
totally touch the third rail.
1:22:45
But anyone who does that you get
my respect, just for doing it.
1:22:50
But don't think that it's going
to be fun.
1:22:53
John C Dvorak: That's for sure.
1:22:54
Adam Curry: It'd be fun. Did you
catch the National Day of hate?
1:23:00
Which I didn't get the memo?
1:23:03
John C Dvorak: Oh, that was a
hoax
1:23:05
Adam Curry: was this hoax?
Because here's how the news
1:23:08
reported I was a hoax. Really?
Yeah. Well, how do you know it's
1:23:12
a hoax?
1:23:14
John C Dvorak: Well, I just
looked at the aftermath and
1:23:15
everyone who do started getting
associated with it. So they got
1:23:18
nothing to do with it. It was
just a slam did Republicans.
1:23:22
Adam Curry: Well, here's what we
got results. We'll do New
1:23:25
Hampshire first.
1:23:26
Unknown: Well, this weekend, the
New Hampshire Department of
1:23:28
Safety is urging people in the
Granite State to be vigilant
1:23:31
following online messaging from
extremist groups. They say those
1:23:35
groups referenced today is being
quote, National Day of hate
1:23:39
through the department. Though
the department did not find any
1:23:42
credible threats or scheduled
events. They advise people to be
1:23:45
more aware of this weekend.
Anyone who witnesses suspicious
1:23:48
activity should immediately call
1:23:50
Adam Curry: 911. So that's just
little old New Hampshire. You
1:23:53
know, just like that, just oh,
well, you know, there's some
1:23:56
threats out there. That's what's
going on in New York. Nah, they
1:23:59
took it to where it needed to
go.
1:24:00
Unknown: Police departments in
our area are ramping up patrols
1:24:03
this weekend, most specifically
at synagogues on the Sabbath
1:24:07
response to anti semitic groups
calling for a nationwide day of
1:24:10
hate and protests targeting
Jewish communities as far as Jen
1:24:13
Adam Curry: Max. Well, how come
they didn't? We didn't get that
1:24:16
message in New Hampshire. Laurie
from Bloomfield
1:24:18
Unknown: here at Temple Nair to
meet in Bloomfield Shabbat
1:24:21
services tonight, and tomorrow
morning, we'll go on as planned.
1:24:25
A neo Nazi group calling for a
day of hate Saturday won't deter
1:24:29
Rabbi Mark caps for noting the
one year anniversary of the
1:24:33
Russian invasion of Ukraine.
1:24:35
The focus is going to stay on
Ukraine tonight. Because, of
1:24:39
course, people need our
attention, and we shouldn't let
1:24:42
terrorism take that away
1:24:43
Adam Curry: and turn it into a
plus for Ukraine. Well done,
1:24:46
Rabbi.
1:24:48
John C Dvorak: We didn't even
get any of these stories out
1:24:49
here. We already talked about
snow.
1:24:53
Adam Curry: It's just as bad as
hate. It's true.
1:24:57
John C Dvorak: There was a
anniversary. I guess it was the
1:25:00
Same story that should have been
talked about. So the National
1:25:03
Day of hate is the Malcolm X
reopening of the
1:25:06
Adam Curry: Oh of the murder
investigation. Yeah.
1:25:10
John C Dvorak: Here's a couple
of clips. Malcolm X reopened
1:25:12
Unknown: this week marked the
anniversary of the assassination
1:25:15
of Malcolm X since that day 58
years ago, there have been many
1:25:19
difficult and painful questions
about who may have been involved
1:25:23
in his murder and what led to
it. This week, Malcolm X's
1:25:26
family took new action,
announcing their intent to sue
1:25:29
several federal and local
government agencies for
1:25:33
allegedly concealing evidence
about what happened. We want
1:25:37
justice served for alpha,
Malcolm X, his daughter, Ellie
1:25:41
jasa Shibas, still searching for
answers decades after his
1:25:44
assassination. At a press
conference this week Shibas
1:25:48
surrounded by family and civil
rights attorney Ben Crump
1:25:51
announced plans to file a $100
million wrongful death lawsuit
1:25:56
against the NYPD, the CIA, FBI
and other government agencies.
1:26:01
They allege a conspiracy in
connection with Malcolm X's
1:26:04
murder, and a subsequent cover
up of evidence on February
1:26:07
21 1965, Malcolm X was killed in
a hail of bullets, just as he
1:26:13
was about to give a speech in
the Audubon Ballroom in Harlem
1:26:17
as his pregnant wife and
children ducked for safety. He
1:26:20
was 39 years old.
1:26:22
Adam Curry: Yeah, that's a
rather interesting timing to do
1:26:24
this now.
1:26:26
John C Dvorak: Yeah, and it will
place part two and I have some
1:26:29
thoughts.
1:26:30
Unknown: Three men were arrested
and convicted of the crime in
1:26:33
November 2021. After decades of
doubts surrounding the case, and
1:26:38
following the release of the
Netflix documentary Who Killed
1:26:40
Malcolm X, the Manhattan
district attorney reopened the
1:26:43
case. Two men who were convicted
of murdering Malcolm X in 1966.
1:26:48
were exonerated after serving
decades in prison. And the
1:26:52
district attorney admitted that
the FBI and NYPD at the time
1:26:56
withheld evidence,
1:26:58
the New York Police Department,
the FBI, the district attorney
1:27:03
of New York, had factual
evidence, exculpatory evidence
1:27:10
that they fraudulently concealed
from the men who were wrongfully
1:27:17
convicted.
1:27:19
Yeah, yeah,
1:27:22
John C Dvorak: this is
interesting, because this was
1:27:24
after the CIA allegedly killed
JFK in a coup d'etat. In 1963,
1:27:34
they went on a killing spree.
And I sent you a thing for the
1:27:39
show notes, which was the list
of the all the people that
1:27:42
mysteriously died after the
Kennedy assassination. Great
1:27:46
Adam Curry: list. In fact, if
you print it out, there will be
1:27:48
floor to ceiling if you did a
normal font type. It would be
1:27:53
it's long killed a lot of people
vape.
1:27:56
John C Dvorak: And the thing
about it is and then they went
1:27:59
on to kill Martin Luther King
JFK, and in a few people in
1:28:04
between Hamza, but they were
killing left and right. But it
1:28:07
was interesting, a lot of their
own people got caught up and
1:28:11
mysteriously died themselves,
including Wolsey have you as
1:28:15
always considered counting?
1:28:16
Adam Curry: Did you count all
the names on this? No, I
1:28:19
John C Dvorak: was gonna count
and I saw there's another list
1:28:20
as the secondary list. But what
I
1:28:22
Adam Curry: like most about this
is the cause of death, fall at
1:28:28
home, shooting accidents,
shooting acts hunting accident,
1:28:35
John C Dvorak: and a lot of
people shot in the head. And I
1:28:38
want to ask you or anybody else
out there, how many people do
1:28:41
you personally know? Who were
shot in the head and live? I
1:28:46
don't know anybody who was that?
I know, personally, who was shot
1:28:51
in the head, and I'm pretty old.
You're not as old as me, but
1:28:54
you've been around long enough.
1:28:55
Adam Curry: I do not know of a
single person who was shot in
1:28:58
the head.
1:28:59
John C Dvorak: I don't know if
there's two of us combined over
1:29:01
100 years of experience. We
don't know. Not a single person.
1:29:06
But if you look at this list,
yes. A lot of head shot and a
1:29:10
head shot in the head. It's
unbelievable. I like the just
1:29:14
I'd like
1:29:14
Adam Curry: to died well while
jogging that I'm gonna
1:29:19
John C Dvorak: I want us to
pricker
1:29:21
Unknown: Yeah. While jogging,
1:29:24
John C Dvorak: so they so they
were on a on a murder spree to
1:29:28
clean things up, and they did
and it
1:29:30
Adam Curry: almost not worth
it's almost not worth it. The
1:29:33
amount of people they had to
kill for this to keep it quiet.
1:29:38
You know, they didn't keep
recording. But you know what
1:29:40
this tells me this tells me that
considering that this came from
1:29:45
a Netflix special, which of
course always comes from a
1:29:47
podcast, we need to start a true
crime. This is our exit
1:29:50
strategy. True Crime podcast who
killed Hillary will be in the
1:29:55
future in the future of who
killed Hillary and we'll build
1:29:59
this whole thing. of how she was
killed.
1:30:01
John C Dvorak: Gonna be very
dramatic when she dies at 93
1:30:05
which is what it looks like
she's gonna happen.
1:30:08
Adam Curry: It doesn't matter we
can put people in that frame of
1:30:09
mind it will be and then we can
sell the Netflix rights when
1:30:14
when she's gone
1:30:14
John C Dvorak: to Brunetti
1:30:19
Adam Curry: says blockbuster
written all over it and we can
1:30:21
get big parts be the dynamite
1:30:26
John C Dvorak: so so that kill
this is worth people looking at
1:30:33
because that's not the Clinton
kill this are the no no. This is
1:30:37
the real deal kill list and it
killed a lot of famous people,
1:30:40
including a lot of their own
agents.
1:30:43
Adam Curry: Yeah, that's not
good. I mean, I mean, yeah,
1:30:47
there really was an up until,
like, 96 even
1:30:53
John C Dvorak: know when you're
the 70s
1:30:55
Adam Curry: None No. October 96.
Lawrence Brantley who sold Jack
1:31:01
Ruby the gun that killed Oswald.
1:31:05
John C Dvorak: No, it goes good.
There's another secondary list
1:31:07
that follows it.
1:31:10
Adam Curry: Well, that's what
I'm talking about. What am I
1:31:13
missing here?
1:31:14
John C Dvorak: Oh, no, there's
there's dead on there that are
1:31:16
after 9996 or 99. I'm sorry. I
was thinking you said 690.
1:31:23
Certainly. Let's Yeah, it
continued for a while. Loose
1:31:29
Ends lots of loose. Why take a
chance.
1:31:34
Adam Curry: Now, to be fair,
there's natural causes on this
1:31:37
too. Yes, but not that many.
Well, they didn't kill Rose
1:31:40
Kennedy, do you think? No, no.
No, she was old.
1:31:46
John C Dvorak: There was a there
are a lot like that too. I
1:31:49
agree. And there's even like one
or two that shouldn't even be
1:31:52
Adam Curry: chatty doesn't
matter. We're gonna put a lot of
1:31:54
people on our list for Hillary
Clinton to just a lot of them
1:31:57
just and we'll just throw like
some podcasters on there. Oh,
1:32:01
yeah. You know, like Alex Jones
No, no, he won't be dead. We
1:32:05
need we need some some dead guys
1:32:07
John C Dvorak: know you can say
anything you want about the
1:32:09
dead. That's you know, a lot of
people don't know about libel
1:32:11
law.
1:32:12
Adam Curry: Oh, if you're dead
then you can label them Yeah.
1:32:15
Oh, really? Yeah, well, but how
about defamation of character
1:32:19
you can't
1:32:20
John C Dvorak: a problem it
here's the only problem you can
1:32:21
run into it I believe in a legal
sense of whether you win Rush
1:32:25
Limbaugh Rush Limbaugh he'll be
a suspect you could probably say
1:32:28
rush limbaugh was you could say
anything you want about it. But
1:32:30
if there's an estate of vol
involved at that sells merch
1:32:35
that that has the guy's an image
or something like that merch and
1:32:39
you hurt their business, then
you can get in trouble you then
1:32:43
you can get in trouble. But if
there's no merch involved,
1:32:47
you're good to
1:32:48
Adam Curry: go. I wonder if who
has the rights? And if they said
1:32:51
do they sell? I mean, I see lots
of Malcolm X merch.
1:32:56
John C Dvorak: I think that's
all public domain. Oh, maybe the
1:32:59
family has the race to the I
would think
1:33:01
Adam Curry: you would think
another tip here. Another tip
1:33:06
from your no agenda show. You
can slander dead people. I like
1:33:10
it. I like it. We can have a
whole whole I've just invented a
1:33:15
whole nother podcast, shaming
slandering the dead during the
1:33:20
dead.
1:33:22
John C Dvorak: Deadwood I think
a lot of people would listen
1:33:26
Adam Curry: to that for sure.
slandering the dead, alright,
1:33:30
you've got all this January 6
stuff. I'm dying to hear it
1:33:32
because just so people
understand when John and I do
1:33:35
the show twice a week. We don't
have well we have 1000s of
1:33:39
producers. But we don't have
line producers and people giving
1:33:42
us scripts and stuff. Now we do
our own work we do our own
1:33:45
clips. Of course. Sometimes we
receive clips from people we
1:33:49
have clip custodian be the first
to say and but we never listen
1:33:54
to each other's clips. I don't
even know what they are thrown
1:33:56
into a binder in alphabetical
order. Sometimes the
1:33:59
misspellings even hard to find
what what clip it is but when I
1:34:02
see Jan six footage PBS and I
see a series you have my
1:34:06
attention.
1:34:09
John C Dvorak: So everybody on
the left is hopping arms up in
1:34:14
arms about the fact that Tucker
Carlson has got the first shot
1:34:21
at the 42,000 hours of January 6
footage. Yeah. Yes. And PBS is
1:34:29
no exception. They're very left
nowadays a much more so than
1:34:32
ever before. And they have this
little jarred dance the Lisa de
1:34:39
jour dance girl to do this, this
kind of rundown and she's just
1:34:46
lopsided when it comes to being
a lefty. Her face is lopsided.
1:34:49
Have you ever noticed that they
have. She does such a good job
1:34:52
on this on the Friday show that
they gave her the Saturday show
1:34:57
for a day to get oh So let's
listen to the outrage January
1:35:05
six foot is just the intro.
1:35:06
Unknown: Some Republicans are
once again re litigating what
1:35:09
happened at the US Capitol on
January 6, relating to House
1:35:12
Speaker Kevin McCarthy sharing
key video footage of the Capitol
1:35:16
attack with a Star Fox
personality. Lisa deja Dan
1:35:20
brings us up to speed about how
it happened. And what Tucker
1:35:23
Carlson hopes to find in the
footage.
1:35:25
Adam Curry: It makes so much
sense now, that out of the
1:35:28
Dominion discovery from the
dominion lawsuit, which quite
1:35:33
plainly also stated that their
own employees of demand thought
1:35:37
their software was crap, the
machines were hackable results
1:35:41
could easily be changed.
Instead, what came out of that
1:35:44
was this long narrative that was
just hammered by competing news
1:35:49
networks, talking about how the
fox people, they didn't ah,
1:35:54
they, they didn't believe
anything, what Trump was saying.
1:35:58
And even Tucker Carlson like,
oh, there was they were they
1:36:01
were publicly they were all
Ford, but privately they
1:36:04
weren't. And so now somehow,
there's a lie. We of course,
1:36:07
it's a lie. But now that they're
turning this around, and making
1:36:11
it look like Tucker Carlson is
going to even though he doesn't
1:36:14
believe it, he's going to make a
case for Trump. Is that the Is
1:36:19
that what that?
1:36:21
John C Dvorak: That that angles
in there? She does bring up the
1:36:23
insincerity. hoax around all
these guys in this report of
1:36:30
hers, but you can tell it's very
slanted and shamefully so I'd
1:36:35
say but here we go. Let's go
with this. Listen to this to
1:36:37
January 6 footage to
1:36:39
Unknown: four months he asked
for access.
1:36:41
You can't know whether the
capitals surveillance cameras,
1:36:46
pan tilt or zoom.
1:36:50
And now Tucker Carlson has it.
This week Republican Speaker
1:36:54
Kevin McCarthy granted the Fox
News host access to 44,000 hours
1:36:58
of security footage from Capitol
grounds on January 6, Carlson
1:37:02
controls a primetime hour on the
most watched cable network
1:37:06
on the basis of a holy created
myth about what happened that
1:37:09
day
1:37:10
and has been a megaphone for
baseless conspiracy theories
1:37:13
that deflect blame, including
the idea that rioters on January
1:37:18
6, were actually victims of a
government false flag plot. He
1:37:22
sees surveillance footage as
possible evidence, Carlson's
1:37:26
words over the last two years
reveal the narrative he wants.
1:37:29
Ray Epps was standing in exactly
the same place that a lot of
1:37:32
people who went to jail were
standing, but he wasn't charged.
1:37:37
His name was taken off the FBI
as most wanted list. Why is that
1:37:40
but evidence shows that wraps an
Arizona man who was at the
1:37:43
Capitol was telling protesters
to calm down.
1:37:47
Adam Curry: Watch that's a lie.
total lie. Yeah, he was telling
1:37:52
the people who are calling him a
Fed he was like calm down, and
1:37:55
they're going fed, fed fed. Wow.
1:37:59
John C Dvorak: Well, he was
telling people let's go charge
1:38:01
that's charged the building he
was urging everyone to go bust
1:38:05
in. So So we start off this
report with a wait.
1:38:10
Adam Curry: Anybody Hold on one.
Did any new information come to
1:38:14
light? Is there something that
she had in her report that show
1:38:18
no it showed this then that's
baseless
1:38:21
John C Dvorak: is everything is
baseless in her report, but my
1:38:24
favorite thing is of course that
what was she said baseless
1:38:26
conspiracy theory. Yeah. Does
that mean all the other
1:38:30
conspiracy theories aren't
baseless, or was she talking
1:38:33
about this? This kind of loaded
language really bothers me by
1:38:37
the way, as well, just
1:38:39
Adam Curry: because you believe
in the institution that is the
1:38:42
PBS I mean, you clearly believe
in this
1:38:46
John C Dvorak: being fair was
once the nation's treasurer. I
1:38:49
thought that was NPR. Oh, yeah.
Okay. Well, same thing.
1:38:52
National. Okay, let's go with
after after hearing the RE EPS
1:38:56
bowl crap. Let's go to clip
three
1:38:59
Unknown: was telling protesters
to calm down and Carlson's
1:39:03
allegation that EPS was working
for the FBI has been debunked.
1:39:09
Overall, there's no evidence of
undercover law enforcement
1:39:12
instigating the riders.
1:39:14
Yeah, I think the public should
see what has happened on day it
1:39:16
in granting Fox News access.
McCarthy keeps a promise to
1:39:20
hardline members in his
conference, negotiations boosted
1:39:24
by Carlson himself. McCarthy
told The New York Times this
1:39:27
week that the tapes belong to
the public and he wants sunshine
1:39:30
on them. But Carlson is not a
neutral arbiter he has condemned
1:39:34
violence but also defended the
motivations behind it.
1:39:38
How for example, did senile
hermit Joe Biden get 15 million
1:39:43
more votes than his former boss,
Rockstar CrowdStrike for Barack
1:39:47
Obama.
1:39:48
Despite raising conspiracies,
recent court filings show
1:39:51
Carlson and other top Fox News
stars didn't believe some of the
1:39:55
pro Trump claims.
1:39:57
Adam Curry: No, there you go.
1:40:00
John C Dvorak: So what was that
clip about when you throw that
1:40:03
gratuitous clip in there about
Biden and Obama is this just
1:40:07
like this is a very poorly put
together package Oh,
1:40:10
Adam Curry: that's that okay.
That is by
1:40:14
John C Dvorak: oh by the way
took a lot of Carlson stuff out
1:40:16
of this when I when I edited it.
1:40:19
Adam Curry: Now the reason
that's in there is to show that
1:40:23
they're all in on the on the
pillow, the big lie the big lie
1:40:30
that the election was stolen the
big lie which of course is
1:40:32
exactly what is insinuating.
1:40:36
Unknown: So yeah, right.
1:40:38
John C Dvorak: On where was
issued, for I think we're off
1:40:41
for Yeah,
1:40:42
Unknown: didn't believe some of
the pro Trump claims in text
1:40:45
messages. Carlson wrote about a
one time Trump advisor Sidney
1:40:49
Powell is lying by the way, I
caught her. It's insane. Carlson
1:40:53
is not the first to access these
tapes. They've already been
1:40:56
reviewed by the House Select
Committee investigating January
1:40:59
6 More last Congress.
Republicans accused the group of
1:41:02
cherry picking those clips on
Fox did not air much of its
1:41:06
hearings.
1:41:08
Adam Curry: Wow, this is subpar,
which is really
1:41:11
John C Dvorak: subpar. It's par.
1:41:15
Adam Curry: All right apart for
them. You're right.
1:41:16
John C Dvorak: So this goes on.
And this a this a long report,
1:41:19
actually. And it ends which I
don't know what to get out of.
1:41:22
And they go back to the news.
And then they bring in Brooks
1:41:25
and K part at the end. And
what's the first thing they've
1:41:27
got to talk about?
1:41:29
Adam Curry: Do I get to guess we
just play it?
1:41:31
John C Dvorak: Well, I think you
know, which is the stupid
1:41:34
January 6 footage. But let's
listen to these. I got two of
1:41:37
these. That's the end of it. And
this is Brooks and K part. I
1:41:41
think they start with k part who
just makes a fool of himself in
1:41:46
my opinion by what he has to
say.
1:41:48
Unknown: Let's pick up where
Lisa left off there. Jonathan.
1:41:50
This idea speaker McCarthy has
handed over these 1000s of hours
1:41:54
of security footage to Tucker
Carlson there are those who
1:41:57
argue just let everyone see
everything and make up their own
1:42:00
minds about it. Is there
validity to that? Sure,
1:42:03
simply because the speaker has
given all of this footage to
1:42:07
Tucker Carlson if you're gonna
give it to him, you should give
1:42:10
it to MSNBC, CNN give it to
everyone give it to PBS give it
1:42:14
to everyone so that they can
look at it. But you know what? I
1:42:18
don't need to see 44,000 hours
worth of footage. I watched our
1:42:22
government being attacked by
supporters of the former
1:42:26
president live on television in
real time over several hours.
1:42:31
Adam Curry: No, okay, well done.
That settles it. We'll take
1:42:35
we'll take your word for it. We
1:42:38
John C Dvorak: saw their riots.
I did to watch my C span it was
1:42:44
people milling around me. Okay.
So then they go to Brooks,
1:42:50
Adam Curry: I think that guy
listens to Coldplay.
1:42:53
John C Dvorak: He absolutely
1:42:58
Adam Curry: yes to Brooks,
1:43:00
John C Dvorak: so now Brooks is
makes it even. This is
1:43:04
unbelievable.
1:43:07
Adam Curry: Is that a que was
1:43:10
Unknown: and so the you want to
pick the adware marovo de tiempo
1:43:13
Carl,
1:43:13
John C Dvorak: the What the Why
that one. You want to you want
1:43:16
to listen to the Edward R.
Murrow have to have our day
1:43:21
which is which he used as an
insult, which no no laughter
1:43:26
laughed.
1:43:28
Adam Curry: Okay, only people
over 60 I'm an exception
1:43:32
understand that joke.
1:43:35
John C Dvorak: And it's besides
that I think it's I think is
1:43:41
beneath anyone is who's now it's
just I think it's a low low shot
1:43:47
or whatever you call it low blow
blow blow blow it's a low blow
1:43:51
here we go. And so do you want
to pay realistic go sorry, he
1:43:53
had
1:43:53
Unknown: wear armor of our day
Tucker Carlson you know, I think
1:44:01
I think in general opening it up
as long as they predict the
1:44:04
procedures of this the capital
security and as long as you
1:44:07
don't release those opening up
widely, giving anything any
1:44:10
public official giving
everything to one news
1:44:12
organization. That's just
bizarre and against the rules of
1:44:15
what we do if one news
organization it should be a dump
1:44:19
off the record, but just doing
it out in front of the day it
1:44:22
just it's not done you give it
to the public
1:44:24
Adam Curry: Oh even slips in a
while off the record. Of course,
1:44:26
you know, I'm getting that okay,
we get off the record all the
1:44:29
time. And that's normal and we
get
1:44:31
John C Dvorak: that little young
glad you caught that little
1:44:32
scores of course what but it was
like, What are you talking
1:44:37
about? exclusives are exclusives
that happens all the time? You
1:44:42
do quid pro quos. Yeah, they're
gonna give you this and you stop
1:44:46
talking about me now they can't
1:44:47
Adam Curry: believe that they
didn't get it. And and they know
1:44:50
that of course with this
footage. You can make it look
1:44:53
like anything you want. You
could make it look like the
1:44:55
cafeteria at Star Wars if you
want
1:45:00
John C Dvorak: Oh yeah, you
could do whatever.
1:45:01
Adam Curry: I'm sorry. Star
Trek. Almost got in trouble for
1:45:06
that one.
1:45:07
John C Dvorak: Yeah. No, this
cafeteria. Which cafeteria?
1:45:10
Yeah, Catherine. If you're
thinking of that bar that's Star
1:45:14
Wars. That's the one that you
want to refer to Star Trek.
1:45:16
That's not Star Wars Star Wars
is the bar Star Trek is the is
1:45:20
the is the little place where
they have their replicators
1:45:25
Adam Curry: neither of neither
of us may be qualified to
1:45:28
discuss this.
1:45:29
John C Dvorak: I can. I've seen
every one of these stories.
1:45:32
Adam Curry: Okay, it's the one
where they have like the three
1:45:34
boob ladies serving drinks.
Yeah. Star Wars Star Wars that
1:45:38
Star Wars? Yeah, I thought it
was Star Trek. No, no. Star
1:45:42
Trek. Star Trek Deep Space Nine.
Yeah, it's t it next generation.
1:45:50
It's one of those are oh my
gosh, oh, it'll be emails for
1:45:53
the next three weeks. Are No,
I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done
1:45:56
that. Shouldn't be done it? I
know. I know. I know. I know.
1:46:05
John C Dvorak: All right,
anyway, so that back to this.
1:46:08
They make good make a big fuss
trying to obviously make it look
1:46:11
like it's going to be bull crap,
whatever Tucker does. So that'll
1:46:16
be that. All right.
1:46:19
Adam Curry: Well, I have I have
some some global stuff world
1:46:22
stuff beginning we were talking
about Yeltsin. Also notice
1:46:26
Treasury Secretary, Secretary
Yellen. She's been she's been on
1:46:30
a world tour. Going to Africa,
you don't hear much about it.
1:46:38
going all over the world, but
mainly mainly in Africa and
1:46:41
talking about the changes and
talking about climate change. I
1:46:45
really don't understand why she
is doing this. Well, I do. I
1:46:49
think I do understand, but
doesn't really fit in her true
1:46:53
job description, that she's
supposed to be addressing stuff
1:46:57
here at home. But she is on the
promotional trip around the
1:47:03
world, mainly in Africa, telling
people up, we're going to change
1:47:08
how we fund stuff. We're going
to change development. We're
1:47:14
going to change we need the
World Bank. We've how many times
1:47:17
we hear well, the World Bank
needs to change its charter. In
1:47:21
other words, how can we take
more money from rich countries
1:47:24
and put it in our pocket. But
this, this was interesting,
1:47:28
because she's not just not just
talking to countries anymore.
1:47:33
She's talking to at a at a more
micro level.
1:47:36
Unknown: Last fall, I issued an
urgent call ahead of the World
1:47:41
Bank and IMF annual meetings,
the evolution of the
1:47:45
multilateral development bank's
system. My reasoning was simple.
1:47:51
The world has changed. And we
need these vital institutions to
1:47:56
change along
1:47:56
Adam Curry: with it. In other
words, we need more money. The
1:47:59
bank must be bolder
1:48:01
Unknown: and more imaginative
over its operational approach.
1:48:05
Adam Curry: imaginative, what
can I come up with today?
1:48:08
Everyone's so creative.
1:48:10
Unknown: For example, we know
that subnational entities can
1:48:14
sometimes have greater expertise
and willingness to implement
1:48:19
innovative projects. So what if
we made it easier for cities to
1:48:25
gain access to funding for
climate smart urban
1:48:29
infrastructure? Operationally,
we believe it's also important
1:48:35
for the bank to develop new
measures of success, stretches,
1:48:40
clear targets that reflect its
efforts to address both
1:48:44
traditional goals as well as
global challenges. Wenting from
1:48:49
China has become extremely
important in the case of Zambia,
1:48:54
China's debt is something like
14% of Zambia's GDP. It's the
1:49:03
it's the largest single
creditor. And so China really
1:49:08
needs to come to the table and
trying to really China's lack of
1:49:14
willingness to comprehensively
participate, and to move in a
1:49:20
timely way has really been a
roadblock.
1:49:24
Adam Curry: Alright, China,
China, bad China, bad China. And
1:49:29
I expect from China, I must
request that when the when the
1:49:33
main feature is playing you
refrain from cleaning up your
1:49:36
office or throwing balls at
Cannes or whatever you were
1:49:39
doing. I have to ask you to be
quiet in the theater. All right.
1:49:45
But the other thing that she
said was what if we could go and
1:49:48
finance cities, so no longer
countries? No, let's go direct
1:49:53
to the city level, which has
been a problem already in the
1:49:56
United States. There are cities
that have taken money from Dinah
1:50:00
cities, actual US cities. And
how about that coincidence if
1:50:06
the world bank wants to help
fund some cities for climate
1:50:10
change? Well, what could we do?
Oh, hello, Cleveland. What
1:50:16
exactly does that mean? 15
minutes city.
1:50:19
Unknown: Oh, J Cleveland says it
hopes to be the first city in
1:50:22
the US to implement this model.
And the idea is pretty simple.
1:50:25
Everything you need is within 15
minutes of where you live either
1:50:29
on foot or by bike or transit.
It first took off in Paris
1:50:33
instead of centralized
downtown's were
1:50:35
Adam Curry: what took off in
Paris. I'm sorry. When you say
1:50:39
it first took off in Paris. Are
they calling the the Parisian? I
1:50:43
don't do some French system, a
15 minute city now. That's
1:50:47
ghettoized. Lady.
1:50:48
John C Dvorak: Well, the 15
minutes is far as I know first
1:50:51
began in England, yes,
1:50:52
Adam Curry: in Oxford, and
Oxford, but she She's pretending
1:50:56
like it's a big success in
Paris. Maybe she
1:50:59
John C Dvorak: wants to go take
a trip to Paris so she can do it
1:51:02
on the street
1:51:03
Adam Curry: report. Well, well,
then I can't blame her
1:51:05
Unknown: foot by bike or
transit. It first took off in
1:51:08
Paris instead of centralized
downtown's where people work and
1:51:12
separate places where they live.
Why shouldn't everything be
1:51:15
closer? Reduced? Proximity is
greener, it's more sustainable
1:51:19
and it creates more solidarity
between neighbors but you can't
1:51:23
start obviously. So it's
purposing. existing spaces Mayor
1:51:28
Bibb said last night, it will be
about People First not
1:51:31
developers. Well, city planners
today told me they will aim to
1:51:34
find out how residents might
want to see their community
1:51:38
change and make sure that the
city's zoning Restriction
1:51:40
Policies are and their policies
around development align. And
1:51:45
the first step for that is
making a list
1:51:47
like grocery stores, schools,
parks,
1:51:50
but also barber shop
1:51:51
Adam Curry: listen to this.
Okay. I love this. First of all,
1:51:56
I'm so sorry to hear this
Cleveland, you're about to be
1:51:59
destroyed. But now, now you hear
one of these city planners and
1:52:05
you know he has a you know, like
a collarless sweater. No, no
1:52:10
shirt underneath it. He's got
you know, blown out your ear
1:52:15
from you know, big gauge. He's
got a beard. He's
1:52:20
John C Dvorak: got gauged ears.
Yeah, as
1:52:21
Adam Curry: your typical soy
boy, guys running the city who
1:52:26
has some apparent power and his?
Well, here's what we discussed.
1:52:30
And here's what we thought we
would never ever. I mean, what
1:52:33
are the services that people
need? I have seen these people
1:52:36
in Austin, they destroy your
city sign.
1:52:39
Unknown: And the first step for
that is making a list
1:52:42
like grocery stores, schools,
parks, but also other things
1:52:45
like barber shops, cafes, a
general list of amenities and
1:52:48
needs that we think as as city
officials, we know and have
1:52:52
heard from residents that they
want to be able to access but
1:52:54
the goal is for it to be
iterative. We want to eventually
1:52:56
take this model to communities
and have them and tell us what
1:53:00
exactly needs or amenities they
really see as being valuable
1:53:03
that they want access to. And I
1:53:05
Adam Curry: love how he throws
in barber shops. Oh yeah. You
1:53:08
heard something about black
people sign is that what it is?
1:53:10
Oh, you have any barber shops
because black people need barber
1:53:13
shops. This is going to destroy
the city.
1:53:16
Unknown: And while they are
finding some neighborhoods have
1:53:18
great access on paper maybe the
quality is lacking due to busted
1:53:22
sidewalks or lack of bike lanes
or bus Tod holes, and whether
1:53:25
it's squeezable talking about or
food justice some neighborhoods
1:53:30
are just lacking all together
here in Cleveland ultimately in
1:53:33
a 15 minute city not every 15
minute radius looks the same but
1:53:37
it serves people with
opportunities to access the
1:53:39
things they want to get to in
their day to day lives.
1:53:43
Adam Curry: So why not do
1:53:44
John C Dvorak: they mentioned
that it like in the Oxford
1:53:47
experiment? They're going to
find you get and find new money
1:53:51
if you leave your 15 minute
segment
1:53:54
Adam Curry: the red zone is for
white people only. The Blue Zone
1:53:59
is for black people only please
stay in your zone citizen if you
1:54:05
want a barbershop you need to be
in the blue this is racist. It
1:54:09
is xenophobic it is it separates
people it puts them in boxes it
1:54:16
is already completely failed in
Oxford people are up in arms
1:54:20
about it again the arms are up
and and the world would shoot
1:54:25
and the World Bank led by Janet
Yellen now for some reason is
1:54:29
going to support these cities
and and and if you're in one of
1:54:33
them you should stop and oh and
Oh, they got a new guy in to run
1:54:38
the World Bank. Oh, by
1:54:39
John C Dvorak: the way, Mr.
Rolando? I think Nottage I got
1:54:42
to stop because now we got to
back up to that comment about
1:54:45
Paris. That's the reason they're
gonna they're gonna switch it
1:54:49
from Oxford words of flop of an
idea and nobody likes it. Don't
1:54:54
even mention that. Hey, you can
turn Cleveland into Paris.
1:55:00
Adam Curry: Wow that's great
although LIC very slick but
1:55:03
Paris some of these sectors now
in Paris are complete no go
1:55:07
zones you know this you keep
your eye on Paris well so who do
1:55:15
you need to bring in to make
this happen? You need someone
1:55:17
who understands micro-finance
You okay, I have not heard you
1:55:22
with a cough like that in a long
time and I
1:55:24
John C Dvorak: got parched
throat earlier in the show. No.
1:55:28
Okay, something some voice I did
or something. No. And I have
1:55:31
been trying to get rid of it.
I'm now sucking on a lot
1:55:34
Adam Curry: you're acting is
bringing your health down as
1:55:37
some voice you are doing.
1:55:39
John C Dvorak: I need a voice
local lesson so I don't hurt
1:55:42
myself. So
1:55:43
Adam Curry: let's go to this
bloom. Excuse me spreading.
1:55:47
Let's go to this Bloomberg
report. When we meet the new
1:55:51
head of the World Bank hits a
doozy.
1:55:54
Unknown: What do we know about
his credentials for the job? Why
1:55:57
is he the right person for the
job? Do
1:55:59
you think of the White House's
mind? Well, the World Bank's job
1:56:02
is economic development and
poverty reduction and he's spent
1:56:05
a lot of his time what he's not
been running MasterCard or right
1:56:10
now his job is Vice Chairman of
Atlantic general Atlantic on
1:56:15
these kinds of issues. He's
1:56:17
Adam Curry: his name is Ajay
Banga. He is currently running I
1:56:23
think the microfinance finance
section of MasterCard. He is a
1:56:28
World Economic Forum guy. He's
the perfect guy.
1:56:32
Unknown: These kinds of issues.
He's been a co chair of the
1:56:36
Partnership for Central America,
where he worked closely with
1:56:39
Vice President Kamala Harris on
to bring business and
1:56:44
development to Central America
and try to stem some of the
1:56:47
refugees flowing north to the
United States. But He's also
1:56:51
worked very closely with
microfinance. He was in Citi
1:56:54
Group heading their strategy,
microfinance went on a number of
1:56:58
years. So he's familiar with the
whole process of poverty
1:57:02
reduction and economic
development and at the same
1:57:05
time, has a lot of management
experience in his time at
1:57:08
MasterCard, interestingly enough
guy, he went to a school in
1:57:13
Hyderabad in India, that has
produced not just Ajay Banga,
1:57:19
but also Shantanu Narayen of
Adobe and Satya Nadella of
1:57:26
Microsoft. So they've all gone
to the same elementary school
1:57:30
private school in Hyderabad,
India.
1:57:33
Adam Curry: It's a cabal. It's a
cabal, the Indian cabal they're
1:57:40
taken over
1:57:41
John C Dvorak: well he's also
from it typical Indian the
1:57:44
Brahmin comes out of Indian
Institute of Technology
1:57:48
Adam Curry: those and those guys
when it comes to equity, they're
1:57:52
the ones you want right there so
fair to all classes. Yeah.
1:57:56
John C Dvorak: I'd say though
you want touchable so those we
1:58:00
do have a couple of dramas that
listen to our show I'm sure the
1:58:03
correct commentary
1:58:05
Adam Curry: they cracked up over
that no doubt. Yeah, 15 minutes
1:58:10
cities. I love the Paris example
though, that that just blows me
1:58:14
away. That as far as I know.
There's they've never been a 15
1:58:17
minute city. They're just making
it up.
1:58:20
John C Dvorak: And parishes.
Definitely not a 15 minute city.
1:58:24
Yeah. anyone's ever been there
knows that.
1:58:28
Adam Curry: And it's gone. So
down. Let me see. I haven't
1:58:31
actually Googled this out, you
know. So if I look at the 15
1:58:38
Minute city, Wikipedia entry
1:58:46
it says right off the bat right
off the bat here. The 15 minute
1:58:49
city was influenced by cities
such as Paris.
1:58:53
John C Dvorak: Yeah, they're
slipping it in check the days go
1:58:55
into the history of that comment
and see when it began.
1:58:59
Adam Curry: Oh, well, is it okay
home is delivered historical
1:59:03
walkability proximity as an
inspiration for the 15 minutes
1:59:08
and advisor to an Hidalgo
Professor Carlos Marino cited
1:59:13
Jane Jacobs model presented in
The Death and Life of Great
1:59:17
American Cities.
1:59:18
John C Dvorak: excellent book.
1:59:23
Adam Curry: So the ongoing plan
1:59:24
John C Dvorak: a fabulous book
it will have nothing to do with
1:59:26
anything they're talking about.
Especially that gauged ear dude.
1:59:32
Adam Curry: Ah, Parisian Mayor
Anne Hidalgo introduced the 15
1:59:36
Minute city concept in her 2020
reelection campaign. So they
1:59:42
just walked they backed it into
it. That's what they did. said
1:59:48
well, you know,
1:59:49
John C Dvorak: luckily used the
term 15 minutes city. While she
1:59:54
introduced the concept doesn't
mean that she coined a phrase
2:00:00
Adam Curry: Let me see parody.
This is I have the Guardian, The
2:00:04
Guardian from February 7 2020.
And it says the Paris Mayor and
2:00:11
he does dal Gu has made phasing
out vehicles and creating a 15
2:00:17
minute city a key pillar of her
offering at the launch of her
2:00:20
reelection campaign. So she was
in
2:00:25
John C Dvorak: 2020 Yep, she
must have joy he got 23 years
2:00:29
what's happened so far as Paris
turned into car free zone
2:00:33
Adam Curry: 2020 It's three
years ago or three years ago I'm
2:00:36
John C Dvorak: sorry. I'm taking
Tony was it was during
2:00:39
Adam Curry: COVID You know, so
she just threw it in there.
2:00:42
Yeah, here it is called the veal
Ducat the the quarter our city
2:00:48
not quite a 15 minute city I
like it though. The quarter our
2:00:52
city
2:00:56
John C Dvorak: well, well, they
you have to use 15 minute they
2:00:59
can't use quarter hour because
then Millennials won't know what
2:01:02
you're talking about.
2:01:03
Adam Curry: With that. I'd like
to thank you for your courage
2:01:05
say in the morning to you the
man who put the C in the
2:01:08
baseless conspiracy theories

2:02:48
social.com and join the
conversation. It's a lot of fun.
2:02:54
Our entire system here has value
for value, that for those of you
2:02:59
who are about to power through
this or about to just fast
2:03:02
forward. I would like to read a
quick email from one of our
2:03:07
producers, who said and this is
John. Hi guys, John here from
2:03:11
Ireland. So we're international
on this one. Wow. He says as a
2:03:16
father to hopefully to hopefully
be later this year. I was amazed
2:03:21
by the donation section. I had
to send a quick note. Now that's
2:03:26
why you should listen to the
donation section. Thank you in a
2:03:30
million thank you a million in
advance as I was about to become
2:03:33
a vasectomy victim in a couple
of years. All the best he says
2:03:38
John, there you go. He learned
something important. He saved
2:03:42
something that he was dear to
him. His his mask.
2:03:47
John C Dvorak: The other guy
kept another guy away from the D
2:03:51
Nutting mill
2:03:53
Unknown: D Nutting mill
2:03:57
Adam Curry: yes well write it
down then de no don't bother.
2:04:02
That's that sounds a little off
off color but value for value
2:04:07
means that anything you do to
support the show is appreciated
2:04:10
and you do it because you get
something out of it. And this is
2:04:13
the point if you're not getting
any value have no no agenda
2:04:16
don't support us don't do
anything walk away. Listen to us
2:04:20
at five times speed hijack your
nervous system whatever you do,
2:04:24
go away just go away from the
Lopes that's right you That's
2:04:29
again right up there with Edward
e Morrow everybody. Arm Yeah,
2:04:35
whatever.
2:04:37
John C Dvorak: Edward II Moreau.
2:04:38
Unknown: I was thinking l fell
pretty
2:04:42
Adam Curry: well, another one
half the audience doesn't
2:04:44
understand. There you go. Well,
we're on we're on a collision
2:04:47
course.
2:04:47
John C Dvorak: And here we go
talking about the old times.
2:04:51
This
2:04:51
Adam Curry: is the idea is if
you get anything of value out of
2:04:54
the show, please give it back to
us the easiest way of the of the
2:04:58
trifecta time, talent and
treasure is to send us something
2:05:01
through Paypal or however you
prefer. We of course will take
2:05:05
cash checks whatever you want
money orders. And really, the
2:05:10
idea is that you determine the
value, we can't determine what
2:05:13
it's worth to you. We also don't
know what a lot or little is to
2:05:15
you. So you do that you
determine all that. And you can
2:05:20
do it at our website, you can
find out more to vorak.org/na or
2:05:25
you could do something like our
artists who are artists are
2:05:29
putting together art for the
show. We changed it up every
2:05:32
single episode. And they're
working in real time and why and
2:05:36
these are pros a lot of these
are really big pros, and often
2:05:40
amateurs who do pro work and we
choose it right after the show
2:05:44
and it's really important
because we have noticed that
2:05:46
having changing art that
particularly for the promotion
2:05:50
of the episode is incredibly
important works really well and
2:05:53
we want to thank fluffed comment
who brought us the artwork for
2:05:56
episode 1532 We titled that
beige in a new kind of gin we're
2:06:00
working on beige in and this was
the one we had already teed it
2:06:04
up because we saw this as we
were doing the previous donation
2:06:08
segment that this was a nice
piece this was the graffiti as I
2:06:12
would say in Texas or in
California graffiti. No agenda
2:06:17
even with a with the show number
which we typically will not even
2:06:20
accept
2:06:22
John C Dvorak: because there's
only one flaw in the piece.
2:06:25
Okay, which is you can't read
the Vortech just says curry
2:06:30
Adam Curry: Raj says Devorah
cuts in purple,
2:06:33
John C Dvorak: purple it's just
hard to read.
2:06:36
Adam Curry: No right no okay. So
if you want to have John on your
2:06:40
side make DeVore I can little
bit bigger than curry well I
2:06:43
John C Dvorak: picked his piece
from the get go because I like
2:06:45
to style a large when is
somebody can pull it off it's
2:06:48
very difficult with that piece
which is you know side of a wall
2:06:52
that is not the easiest thing
for anybody to do and make it
2:06:56
look and it doesn't would that
keep the composition high and
2:07:01
make the thing have a nice
balance it looks good beautiful
2:07:04
piece
2:07:04
Adam Curry: in fact since we had
mentioned it with the show
2:07:08
number in there fluff calm it
did one took it away and and
2:07:13
replaced it with goat or
something and it ruined the
2:07:16
piece we said NO NO NO NO NO NO
NO NO we want the original piece
2:07:21
that's how that's how subtle it
is really the sometimes the
2:07:26
difference can be ingested take
much in the original composition
2:07:31
we liked it We also liked that
which I think he used for the
2:07:35
newsletter the wave the wave by
made Marriott
2:07:40
John C Dvorak: Yeah. To take off
of a famous Japanese print
2:07:45
called the wave over somewhere
other has to guess of everyone's
2:07:49
used it's been copied re
purposed a million times and I
2:07:55
just never seen this type of
this version of it. It's very
2:07:58
pretty. So I use it for the
newsletter but we I think the
2:08:01
pieces we really liked it we
never picked included Joey from
2:08:05
common lager.
2:08:07
Adam Curry: It was not
appropriate as art but it wasn't
2:08:09
funny bit. Can you turn your
speaker's down just a tad? Yeah,
2:08:13
slap him back. Yeah, it was our
president on his ass as some
2:08:18
stairs of course. Where he
usually winds up. We did like
2:08:23
that one. We also
2:08:24
John C Dvorak: fall up. Did
another follow up? Yeah. On the
2:08:28
plane from
2:08:30
Adam Curry: Poland. Poland.
Yeah, we saw it.
2:08:33
John C Dvorak: Wasn't that
funny?
2:08:34
Adam Curry: No. No, it wasn't a
good one. funny to see. Melvin
2:08:41
Gibbs Steen. With no agenda
artists out of ideas homeless on
2:08:45
the street. That was funny. It
was a couple of days Kenny Ben
2:08:50
also had a bar just out of ideas
with just an easel with question
2:08:54
mark. The out of ideas really
showed that you're you're out of
2:08:58
ideas even for out of ideas.
Which is interesting.
2:09:04
John C Dvorak: Soon another one
I thought that we liked.
2:09:06
Adam Curry: We did think the IO
monk broken out of ideas. I
2:09:11
liked it with the artist with
his head on the desk. Yeah, as
2:09:14
cute kind of like a stockbroker
you know, out of ideas
2:09:18
completely lost like never gonna
happen.
2:09:21
John C Dvorak: Sitting on the
ledge ready to jump might have
2:09:23
been on a ledge. There you go.
That would have been
2:09:25
Adam Curry: closer. I think I
think that was really it. Was
2:09:31
anything else that we
2:09:32
Unknown: no
2:09:34
Adam Curry: no, I think you're
right. We appreciate fluff
2:09:39
comment. And all of the artists
who participated in doing this,
2:09:42
it's it's highly appreciated.
It's very hard to do
2:09:45
John C Dvorak: they have their
own. All the artists should
2:09:47
definitely be an account with no
agenda social where they like to
2:09:51
what kidness and
2:09:52
Adam Curry: Yeah, talk about it
and congratulate each other. I'm
2:09:55
sure there's lots of DMS that
2:09:59
John C Dvorak: didn't do
anything really knew anything
2:10:00
about our activity.
2:10:02
Adam Curry: That would be
roundly every day if we knew
2:10:03
about art. Exactly. That's
right. Thank you, again, to all
2:10:09
of the artists who really do
appreciate it. It's great work
2:10:11
all of it. And you can also see
that in your modern podcast app
2:10:14
now on CarPlay, and Android Auto
with some of them. And now we go
2:10:19
to a special thanks to everyone
who came in above $200. Between
2:10:24
two and 300 is Associate
Executive Producer, get it while
2:10:27
you can because inflation is
going to move that up probably
2:10:29
the end of the quarter. And 300
or above is executive producer
2:10:33
of this episode. And we start
off with Sir Dave deflecto from
2:10:38
Plymouth, Minnesota, with 1040
That is interesting. 1040
2:10:47
haven't donated for a while, but
figure that it's worth at least
2:10:51
$5 a show. So this makes me good
for four years. Oh, lots of
2:10:57
people do this too.
Interestingly. Yeah,
2:10:59
John C Dvorak: by the way, this
is a reference to 1040 tax form.
2:11:03
Adam Curry: Oh, yes. Does he say
that?
2:11:07
John C Dvorak: No, that is what
it is.
2:11:10
Adam Curry: That's kind of
interesting. Huh? Okay, once a

The Florida Water Quality crisis
2:36:40
is real. Hi,
2:36:41
it's Valerie. Thank you.
2:36:43
Eric Adler, and I do believe
China is asshole.
2:36:49
Adam Curry: There you go long
way. By the way, John, you might
2:36:52
want to consider a mute button
or something. You're like
2:36:56
unwrapping. I don't know what
you were unwrapping. You know?
2:37:01
John C Dvorak: That was the
lozenge. Those speakers got this
2:37:04
how long sticks to the thing?
Well, it's old and it's hard to
2:37:10
get off and makes a lot of
2:37:11
Adam Curry: racket you're eating
you're just making a lot of
2:37:14
noise. If you are in Derby,
Connecticut, you probably are
2:37:20
just wrapping up the batsman's
beer company meet up the linkage
2:37:24
of the amygdala shrinkage.
However, on this coming
2:37:27
Thursday, you can be marching
into the golden Gulag get
2:37:30
together at 630 at Lincoln's
Roadhouse in Denver, Colorado,
2:37:34
or the Shouguang man show on gum
bridge meet up is probably
2:37:40
wrong. Bacchus restaurant
brewery and billiards in New
2:37:43
Paltz, New York. Those are the
ones that are scheduled. I'm
2:37:47
just looking at the list here we
have through March and April
2:37:51
vomiting in the Netherlands
we've got C one I'm looking for
2:37:55
any other foreign countries
Osaka, Osaka, Japan. I mean,
2:38:01
it's all over. These meetups are
phenomenal. They are something
2:38:06
you have to witness I guarantee
you go to one you want to go
2:38:09
back these are connections that
people make and especially when
2:38:13
you see like the the propaganda
Palace, these people you would
2:38:17
never expect them to be together
in a group we look we're
2:38:20
different from all different
walks of life, but we have some
2:38:23
community in common and you
should go and witness that for
2:38:28
yourself because connection like
that is always protection. No
2:38:31
agenda meetups.com If you can't
find one near you start one it's
2:38:34
easy always a party hang out
with the next day. You will be
2:38:45
triggered you will be buddy
feels the same. So you can be
2:38:55
okay with that throat. I mean I
don't like how that cough
2:38:57
sounds.
2:38:59
John C Dvorak: You mean that
that was me hitting a drum? Yes.
2:39:04
Adam Curry: I just don't like
the cough. I don't even like to
2:39:06
cough either. Okay, don't don't
like it. I only have one ISO and
2:39:10
I don't feel good about it. I'll
play it don't idiot. You're a
2:39:13
genius. That's all I've got.
That's all I've
2:39:16
John C Dvorak: got. I have one
ISO.
2:39:20
Adam Curry: Okay, it's this one.
2:39:21
Unknown: Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you for what you're doing.
2:39:23
Adam Curry: Yeah, I think that
uh, when we can do that.
2:39:26
John C Dvorak: That's number two
for me.
2:39:29
Adam Curry: So we're keeping
track now are we?
2:39:32
John C Dvorak: I'm keeping track
of all the ones that Biden I can
2:39:34
slip into. Okay. Ah, let's
2:39:38
Adam Curry: see. What do we have
to wrap this up?
2:39:40
John C Dvorak: No, I have a
bunch of Bernie clips from the
2:39:42
last show that I wanted to play
Bernie Bernie. Yeah, Bernie is a
2:39:47
douchebag. You
2:39:49
Adam Curry: mean Bernie Bernie
Sanders?
2:39:51
Unknown: Yeah. Why?
2:39:55
Adam Curry: Just just because
it's an idiot saying idiotic
2:39:58
stuff. I mean, I'll play it.
Okay,
2:40:02
John C Dvorak: what do you have?
Look up Bernie's on the media?
2:40:06
Yep, got it. Now the one you
have to worry about that you
2:40:10
might not find is Benny the
worm. I left the are out.
2:40:15
Adam Curry: What would you want
me? Which one? Do you want me to
2:40:17
get the Bernie or the Benny?
2:40:18
John C Dvorak: No, I want to
Bernie's first. Ben is the last
2:40:20
one. Okay. All right. So here's
Bernie, on the media, who also
2:40:26
Unknown: talk about new deal for
journalism and rethinking of the
2:40:29
role of public and community
media in the United States.
2:40:31
You're very harsh on on the
media, as we talked about,
2:40:34
including you mentioned this
network. You mentioned
2:40:36
Washington Post, you do
2:40:38
mostly all kinds of nice things
about you know, some
2:40:41
other journalists here, you did
give a shout out to Terra corte
2:40:44
and some other reporter
2:40:46
John C Dvorak: keeping track.
Why names her name? She must
2:40:52
have been irked by that. Okay,
so that says he wants to
2:40:58
subsidize the media like to do
in Canada.
2:41:01
Adam Curry: Oh, okay. Now let's
see what this is about. All
2:41:03
right. Yes, of course, that
makes the
2:41:05
John C Dvorak: kind of thing you
got to be aware of. Here he is
2:41:08
on the media. Number two,
2:41:10
Unknown: Tara corte and some
other reporters. But But you say
2:41:15
you take direct aim at the media
for not asking the questions
2:41:18
that you think need to be asked
how do you on this new deal
2:41:21
idea? How can you have the US
government in any way involved
2:41:25
with the media and direct
funding when trust in the
2:41:29
government is so low in this
country and trusted media as low
2:41:31
as
2:41:32
two issues? Two separate issues?
Number one, what I say in the
2:41:35
book is that look, I've done
1000 interviews, like I'm doing
2:41:38
with you right now. And nobody
has ever come up to me not one
2:41:42
reporter, not human, not anybody
else's. Bernie. Why are we
2:41:45
spending twice as much on health
care as any other country and
2:41:47
yet we have 85 million uninsured
or underinsured? How many
2:41:50
programs that CBS NBC ABC had on
why we have a dysfunctional
2:41:54
healthcare system. Does that
have anything to do with who
2:41:57
owns the major networks? Bernie,
what are you going to do about
2:42:02
income and wealth inequality?
Demand? Why are billionaires
2:42:06
paying good, effective tax rate
low with the working class
2:42:08
people? No one asked me those
questions. Okay.
2:42:10
So that tells us the questions
to ask.
2:42:12
I understand that. But there's a
culture in the media don't tell
2:42:15
us people who work for me not to
vote for Donald Trump.
2:42:19
John C Dvorak: Did you hear her
say nobody told us to ask you
2:42:22
that?
2:42:22
Adam Curry: Yes. Of course. I
heard that. Yeah. You mean the
2:42:28
PR person? The campaign person?
The book PR person?
2:42:33
John C Dvorak: Yeah. They all
they always give you a list of
2:42:35
things to ask. In these
interviews. Yeah. Always.
2:42:38
Adam Curry: Yeah. Usually with
the book, it comes in a little
2:42:40
insert suggestions for
questions. Yeah.
2:42:45
John C Dvorak: So I thought that
was funny. But then we get this
2:42:48
one. This was kind of
interesting. Listen to it,
2:42:50
Bernie. Kind of circumventing
this this this comment that he
2:42:55
makes this is Bernie and a robot
tax and gates.
2:43:01
Unknown: of logic, multinational
corporations are saying, Look,
2:43:03
we can do this, we can get rid
of all these people over here,
2:43:06
we can make even more money. So
we're talking about a
2:43:08
transformational moment,
throughout the world in the
2:43:11
United States. I want working
people to be involved. And if we
2:43:14
come up with a technology, I'm
not anti technology, if there is
2:43:18
a technology that can do
increase worker productivity,
2:43:21
who benefits from that? Just the
guy who owns the company? What
2:43:24
does the work of benefit, so we
can reduce the workweek. Is that
2:43:28
a bad thing? It's a good thing.
I don't want to set the people
2:43:31
on top simply be the only
beneficiaries of this revolution
2:43:34
in technology.
2:43:35
So you agree with Bill Gates and
taxing robots? That's one way to
2:43:38
do it. Yeah, absolutely. He's a
billionaire. You do like
2:43:42
he's bought the bill in a number
of guys.
2:43:47
But okay.
2:43:50
John C Dvorak: Screws is
billionaire. You do like Screw
2:43:52
this guy. I've talked to him.
Yeah. Now, here's Bernie the
2:43:57
worm. This is a clip. I just got
the biggest kick out of this.
2:44:02
She actually goes after him. I
think she's irked by the fact
2:44:05
that she wasn't mentioned in the
book and this other woman who
2:44:08
she apparently knows
2:44:10
Adam Curry: she's hurt the hair
or whatever it was mentioned in
2:44:12
the book. Who is
2:44:14
John C Dvorak: who is she? Yeah.
Sorry.
2:44:17
Adam Curry: Who is she that we
did it? Why would she be
2:44:19
mentioned in the book?
2:44:20
John C Dvorak: Because purely
Bernie mentions a bunch of
2:44:23
journalists in the book.
2:44:25
Adam Curry: Now this is
pathetic. It's pathetic. We've
2:44:27
been playing it but Okay, let's
go Bernie in the worm.
2:44:31
Unknown: That I have to ask you.
You're going on tour to promote
2:44:33
this book. It's okay to be angry
about capitalism. And you're
2:44:38
here talking about it.
Understand, we're not the bad
2:44:42
guys you're describing in the
book when it comes to media but
2:44:45
tickets for your tour apparently
are selling for $95 which is
2:44:50
accused of anti competitive
behavior. You know that some of
2:44:53
your Democrats are criticizing
them. Aren't you benefiting
2:44:55
yourself? You're trying to
dismantle
2:44:58
first of all those six gins made
totally by the publisher and the
2:45:02
bookseller. I think it is one
case where in one place here in
2:45:05
Washington politics and prose
and independent bookstore,
2:45:08
charging some tickets, most of
them I think are $40.50. And you
2:45:12
get a book as well. So if you
want to come, you're gonna have
2:45:15
to pay 40 bucks. I'll throw in
the book for free. And we're
2:45:18
doing a number of free events,
but I don't make a nickel out of
2:45:21
these things.
2:45:21
But you're okay doing business
with Ticketmaster?
2:45:23
No, not particularly. But that's
again, I have nothing to do with
2:45:26
that. That is you wrote a book
probably be the same process.
2:45:30
Adam Curry: Why don't you go
back to you have three houses
2:45:35
that's much more effective than
ticket mascot pick to pick up
2:45:37
on?
2:45:39
John C Dvorak: Well, I thought
it was interesting that to see
2:45:41
Bernie give a book talk, he had
to pay 95 bucks. Oh, sure. But
2:45:46
he gets nothing. Are you kidding
me? Who's getting all that
2:45:49
money? That's what you should
ask. Well, if you're not getting
2:45:54
the 95 bucks who's getting the
money? He's gonna say what
2:45:58
you're gonna say the publisher
I've never heard of this. This
2:46:00
is never this is not in the in
any publishing business I've
2:46:04
ever seen where you were the
publishers is whoring out their
2:46:07
authors and taking all the
money. What author is going to
2:46:11
put up with that? Well as
2:46:13
Adam Curry: the one who signed
the dummy contract Hello. That
2:46:18
would be Bernie.
2:46:19
John C Dvorak: I can't see him
signing a dummy key right? He's
2:46:22
an idiot.
2:46:23
Adam Curry: I banned him now
from the show. Well, yes, you've
2:46:28
successfully turned me off from
from him so bad now. This guy is
2:46:33
he's what he has is I mean, he
has zero relevance.
2:46:40
John C Dvorak: He's still has a
lot of influence over Alexandria
2:46:43
Cortez, who you predicted would
be President of the United
2:46:48
States, if I'm not mistaken.
Stay
2:46:50
Adam Curry: tuned for that. 2024
is on deck. I said she would be
2:46:55
a great president for the show.
Not for the country. And you
2:47:01
should be hoping that she
becomes president.
2:47:04
John C Dvorak: Well, I don't see
that in the cards now. Somebody
2:47:08
out there get me the clip where
he predicts you will be
2:47:10
president not for this show.
Come on, you can do it. Israeli
2:47:17
Moon bases.
2:47:18
Adam Curry: Wow. All more
entertaining than those clips.
2:47:22
Okay, well, as you can
2:47:24
John C Dvorak: find Israeli
Moonbase this clip Yeah, maybe.
2:47:28
Adam Curry: Coming up next on no
agenda. stream.com We have a
2:47:31
live show. It is. Oh, it's bowls
with bugs. Live with the pod
2:47:37
sage Dave Jones of podcasting.
2.0 They're doing it live of
2:47:42
course. And your show mixes
Rolando Gonzalez Tom
2:47:44
Starkweather and Hayes citizen
coming to you from the heart of
2:47:47
the Texas Hill Country here to
FEMA Region number six in the
2:47:49
morning, everybody. Israeli Moon
bases are real. I'm Adam curry.
2:47:54
John C Dvorak: And from Northern
Silicon Valley, where it's
2:47:56
raining right now, I'm John C.
Dvorak. We
2:47:58
Adam Curry: return on Thursday
right here on no agenda, please
2:48:00
remember us at the vortech.org/n
a value for value people. Until
2:48:05
then, adios mofos have a good
who we who we end to
2:48:09
Unknown: such
2:48:13
and so the saga continues. I've
been hearing a lot about Peppa
2:48:16
Pig lately.
2:48:17
Nothing to do with this is
blatant sexism. Nothing to do
2:48:21
with the rain Genie is coming
back. Nothing to do with like
2:48:24
it's okay to be angry about
capitalism. It's not
2:48:27
Adam Curry: just a bloody good
show. It has a lot of layers to
2:48:29
it.
2:48:29
Unknown: 40 bucks. I'll call in
the book for free. Not a joke.
2:48:32
Now I'm going to burst your
bubble everybody. Nothing to do
2:48:35
with now I'm going to burst your
bubble everybody. What are you
2:48:38
going to do about income and
wealth inequality? Now I'm going
2:48:40
to burst your bubble everybody.
2:48:42
And so the saga continues.
There's always this shows about
2:48:45
you my brothers
2:48:46
Adam Curry: and sisters. We've
got receipts people and we've
2:48:48
pushed to the fringes of
outright lunacy.
2:48:49
John C Dvorak: Now I'm going to
burst your bubble everybody got
2:48:52
nothing to do with what a crock
of shit dad
2:48:55
Unknown: quit store. The show is
full of symbolic elements that
2:48:58
represent the child's mind now
I'm gonna burst your bubble
2:49:00
everybody
2:49:02
just helped me understand.
Nothing to do.
2:49:06
A podcast liar.
2:49:07
John C Dvorak: I'm a liar in
chief. Now I'm gonna burst your
2:49:10
bubble, everybody. We've faced
2:49:12
Unknown: issues from container
shipping to airline
2:49:15
cancellations. And we got
balloons most of all, we got a
2:49:24
community that's been through a
lot. That I think is pretty
2:49:27
frustrated with people trying to
take political advantage of this
2:49:31
situation. I have followed the
norm in the first days of the
2:49:34
crash response of staying out of
the way of the independent NTSB,
2:49:39
the National Transportation
Safety Board. Maybe I got that
2:49:41
timing right. Maybe not. But the
most important thing for me
2:49:44
right now is that that doesn't
wind up allowing people to
2:49:49
change the subject and block
needed rail regulation.
2:50:05
Why are there so many cardiac
people worldwide? What is
2:50:20
causing heart inflammation? We
simply don't know at this time
2:50:31
What discoveries some studies
exposed door three someday we'll
2:50:45
find the connection between farm
2:51:00
we can't jump to conclusions. We
need more information as to why
2:51:07
good cause our failures to rise.
You may find some controversy
2:51:16
surrounds Vioxx. But Pfizer.
2:51:26
crackpots will say the spike
proteins the culprit, but I know
2:51:34
they're wrong wait and see.
We'll find it. The COVID
2:51:44
connection, the media being
farmed.

you for what you're doing.
