bumped by a staffer. Adam curry
Jhansi Devora
Adam Curry: Sunday April
30 2023. This is your award
winning keep our nation media
assassination episode 1551 This
is no
Unknown: agenda.
Adam Curry: My day away and
broadcasting live from the heart
of the Texas Hill Country here.
Number six in the morning,
everybody. I'm Adam curry
John C Dvorak: from Northern
Silicon Valley where we take one
day off and in retribution, Fox
fires Tucker Carlson. I'm John
C. Dvorak.
Adam Curry: So, did anything
happen while I was gone?
John C Dvorak: They fired Tucker
Carlson because we didn't want
to miss one show.
Adam Curry: No, no, no, they
parted ways mutually.
John C Dvorak: You know, there's
a lot of speculation just to be
honest for a second. There's a
lot of speculation as to why
they fired Tucker Carlson I have
the clip.
Adam Curry: I have a whole bunch
of clips.
John C Dvorak: This is Yeah, but
I have convinced Oh, this is
because it happened right after
this. Right after this happened.
He was gone. Even though he was
finishing off his show. This is
this is why they forced Tucker
last segment clip. Heat. This is
the last thing he did on his
show before signing off saying
he's gonna be back on Monday and
within this clip, I can see why
he got fired.
Unknown: The other night we
interviewed a heroic pizza
delivery man called Tyler Morel
and ever conscious of the
opportunity to use our job to
get free food. We thought we'd
like to taste your pizza. Tyler
Burrell joins us in studio. He
will deliver literally anywhere.
Sorry. To meet you in person.
Couple of Coco's price. Should
we add? These are from Coco's
established 1978 Everybody loves
Coco's pizza. That's right.
Where's Coco's bass, Aston
Pennsylvania and Delaware
County, Delaware County best
part of the state agreements.
She's pies of special pie for
you here.
Here's Tucker's pie.
So I am as you can likely tell,
the pizza aficionado I was a
pizza delivery boy for warm at
all. Yes, totally warm. These
warmers are Oh, I know
Adam Curry: why. I know I saw
this I know exactly. Why.
Exactly. You got it. So I chose
to do it like
John C Dvorak: everyone did
everyone figure it out?
Adam Curry: I mean, I am guilty
of this myself.
Unknown: Or we're gonna this is
sausage that sausage and
pineapple and really quick as a
pizza professional. Do you look
down on this order? Is this I
do? I think I consider criminal.
Pizza.
Adam Curry: I agree. That's
that's a fireable offense right
there.
John C Dvorak: You was fired on
the spot. Pineapple pizza, I
make no bones about it. And the
first time I ever had it
curiously, the story is I never
had it before. I always felt the
same way. I was a big hit. And
one day it was at MVNO pizza big
it was at me VO and they brought
a bunch of I forgot what pizza
company but they brought about
10 Pies over and there was the
pineapple pizza amongst them.
And I looked at it I said Hmm,
let me try this. I tried it and
in one bite I was sold. It's a
perfect combination. That sweet
pineapple and rest of it. It was
I was a pineapple nut ever since
Welcome to the Darko who don't
like pineapple on their pizza
try it
Adam Curry: you know as a
Chicago and I'm I am surprised
by this you know Tina of course
lived most of her adult life in
Chicago and she she when that is
the one thing we really differ
on she feels she's a she is a
pineapple pizza bigot although
the other day she did have I
think she did order it for I
can't remember. I think she
might she might have eaten
around it. But she was kind
enough to order it for me. Well,
yeah, that of course. Could be
the reason I think the reason is
they heard I was going to appear
on Megyn Kelly on Monday and
they had to make sure that
stopped.
John C Dvorak: Possibility
Adam Curry: got bumped. I gotta
tell you the story. Oh, you
John C Dvorak: got bumped. Yes,
I was supposed
Adam Curry: to do Megyn Kelly.
I'm wondering why I didn't hear
anything about this. Yeah, so
this is two days before my
operation. Everything was
everything was all scheduled
perfectly. It's you know, it's
great. On on Sunday show you
even told me like hey man, play
up the trans Maoism stuff. She
doesn't have all that right. So
um, you know, I'm very prepared
for that because she's all about
the you know, men and women's
sports and you know, she she's
not seeing the big picture. So I
was very prepared for that and,
and 10 minutes to it was going
to be at 11am My time Tim and
I'm on the on the Zoom. I'm in
the green room. Pretty
sophisticated. The Zoom has that
I might add. They've got a whole
setup for Broadcast.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, we got
Adam Curry: a green room and the
producers come in and talk to
you. And the Booker, you know,
and of course, I'm friends with
the booker because you know, and
by the way, if you recall last
time, for the first time, almost
two years ago when I was on
Megyn, Kelly I got bumped from
the first hour because Sharon
Osborne got fired. It's like
when Adam curry is
John C Dvorak: on the show. If
Kelly really wants to build up
her audience, she should just
keep booking you and keep firing
people and she'll have a great
show.
Adam Curry: I'll make a note of
that. I'll mention that I'm re
booked for the 31st. So five
minutes before Steve Krakauer
comes on Steve's Our executive
producer, he's a really nice
guy.
John C Dvorak: He people who
they have on this podcast,
Adam Curry: quite a few, they
have quite a few people. And she
was she, I mean, she finance it
all herself. She started with
just a podcast, money, she got a
lot of dough, and she added
YouTube and then Sirius XM. So
she's got to get money coming in
from all over the place. So
Steve comes on, it's like, hey,
it's a breaking news. What? It
just broke on Carlson got fired.
Oh, okay. Because I'm gonna go
on for the first 20 minutes.
What? Okay, so the executive
producer goes on for the first
20
John C Dvorak: Wait, you're
bumped by a staffer?
Adam Curry: Yes, that was Steve
has been on on Tucker Carlson
several times. So he has some
standing, I guess in that area.
And he's a Texas guy. So I'm
gonna HD that's fine. And yeah,
and then Megan will bring you in
after the break. So I'm sitting
there and, and to be quite
honest, it was. I was pretty
happy. I was ready. I mean, I
was okay, Tucker Carlson. I've
got everything I collect, kind
of which there's a lot of stuff
going on with him and
particularly big pharma and
other things. And I was ready.
I'm like, Okay, I'm pretty
prepped for this. And then the
break is over and then it's
going on? Oh, we're gonna get to
Glenn Beck on I'm like, okay,
Glenn Beck wants me on again,
too, by the way scheduling that.
Yeah. So then Glenn Beck Glen,
of course was x Fox. Okay, that
makes sense. Now we're like, now
it
John C Dvorak: would be the
Glenn or Riley would be good
people to have as Yeah, I got
fired from them too.
Adam Curry: Right. And then
well, now we got Glenn Greenwald
on
John C Dvorak: No, it's Greg.
Adam Curry: That was a low blow
Megyn Kelly
John C Dvorak: ads bad your tire
profiling greenwall Well,
Adam Curry: her angle was, you
know, we've all gone
independent, you know, this can
be done. This can be done
without, you know, no big media
networks. And I kind of
appreciate that kind
John C Dvorak: of you, isn't it?
Adam Curry: She at one point
said you know, yeah, we'll have
the the actual we pioneered
this. She says to Glenn Beck, it
says and we'll have the actual
pioneer Adam curry on in a
little bit. Now, of course, that
never happened because she just
kept going and and then she's
bringing on
John C Dvorak: boulder all giddy
because he got fired. You know?
It's, it's that crazy idea where
you're I think they took Glee in
it.
Adam Curry: It went well, it's a
big thing anybody
John C Dvorak: felt sorry for
Tucker. They felt it was an
outrage.
Adam Curry: But these are all
people who were like, you know,
who parted ways with mainstream,
and they're very excited. And I
understand that, you know, I got
the the occasional email or text
message. Hey, man, bring your
new podcasting. 2.0 value for
value.
Unknown: Yeah, okay. Yeah, I see
that. Yeah,
John C Dvorak: the dinner table.
Yeah, I had to shut it off.
Because it say, hey, you know,
it's a different medium, you
just don't go from one to the
other like, yeah, willy nilly.
Adam Curry: So I had a lot of
time to reflect on it listening
to everybody. And I and I was
quite happy with that. Because
what it gave me was a lot more
opportunity to think about what
had really happened here for our
own show. Which have to be I
liked Megyn. Kelly, I was
excited to be on you know, I
don't think she I don't think
she's ever really listened to
the show. Otherwise,
John C Dvorak: I'm sure she's
never listened to the show
otherwise,
Adam Curry: and I don't even
think the Booker's listened to
the show. Now, you know, they
keep saying, Hey, can we redo
this on every date was like
Thursday, Thursday through No,
no, I kind of had the show on
Thursday. So which is so rude
when they do that, and to be
fair about it, so the same
thing? Hey, can you do Thursday?
No. What do you know about me?
John C Dvorak: Unbelievable. I
mean, it's beyond ruinous, it's
indicate that they've never This
is like the kind of you I send
you these letters. What's
Adam Curry: the emails that you
get saying, Hey, we're
evaluating for a big client to
advertising on no agenda, like
oh, hey,
John C Dvorak: I always send
them to you. We have a perfect
guest for your show.
Adam Curry: Dicks dipshits.
John C Dvorak: Send them to you,
but I send sometimes I'll send a
note back Like, Oh, really?
We're How do you think they're
gonna work in? How where were
they? What segment? Do you think
they'd be really a good guest on
our show donation
Adam Curry: segment will be
perfect for them. I think we've
slipped on right in there. So
that gave me some time to think
about what is going on. And
really, this to me was the rest
in peace M five M moment. This
was not a business decision
based upon we're going to make
Fox News better. In fact,
they've lost two thirds of their
primetime audience within a
week's time. Oh, yeah. So this
was this was a knee jerk
reaction that we may never know
exactly. I'm pretty sure Tucker
knew something was coming. I
really am convinced to that
because
John C Dvorak: we brought the
pizza guy and I've never seen
that on the show. Thank you. At
the end of the show, I eat
brings up pizza guy I
Adam Curry: I agree with you on
that he knew something was
coming key. He felt it. He's
been doing podcast interviews
with Adam Carolla with some some
20 year old kid. And in fact,
let me play this. This kid here,
this is the full sand podcast.
This actually was a couple of
weeks ago. So it was Adam
Carolla show only only clipped
this one. Because what happened
is Tucker had this massive
awakening. And when you listen
to it, it's phenomenal to hear
how clueless he was, which we
kind of knew. And also, you
know, without our show, they
wouldn't have had as much good
material, because it's pretty
obvious how, how often our
material showed up on Tucker the
next the next evening, right
down to the clips almost. So
just listen to this. And you can
hear how disgusted he was with
his job, his own performance and
with the media itself. And he
drew the logical conclusion,
which we, which was the basis
for this very show. almost 16
years ago,
Unknown: I've spent my whole
life in the media, my dad was in
the media, like that is a big
part of the revelation that's
changed my life is the media are
part of the control apparatus.
Like there's no, yeah, no, I
know, because you're younger and
smarter. And you're like, yeah,
yeah. But what if you're me, and
you spent your whole life in
that world? And to look around?
And all of a sudden you're like,
Oh, wow. Not only are they part
of the problem, but I spent most
of my life being part of the
problem defending the Iraq War.
Like I actually did that. Can
you mention if you did that?
What do you think what is one of
your biggest regrets in your
career defending the Iraq War,
and his wife had a million
regrets not being more
skeptical? calling people names
when I should have listened to
what they were saying, Look,
when you when someone makes a
claim, there's only one question
that's important at the very
beginning, which is is the claim
true or not? So I say, you know,
you committed murder, or you
rigged the last election, before
you attack me as a crazy person
for saying that maybe you should
explain whether you did it or
not. Yeah. And for too long, I
participated in the culture
where I was like, anyone who
thinks outside these pre
prescribed lanes, is crazy, is a
conspiracy theorist. And I just
really regret that I'm ashamed
that I did that. And partly it
was age partly was the world
that I grew up in. So when you
when you look at me, and you're
like, Yeah, of course, they're
part of the means of control.
I'm like, that's obvious to you,
because you're 28. But I just
didn't see it at all, at all.
And I'm ashamed of that's not
what the media tries to do,
though. It's their only purpose,
right? They're not here to
inform you really, even on the
big things that really matter,
like the economy and war and
COVID. And like things that
really matter that will affect
you know, their job is not to
inform you. They are working for
the small group of people who
actually run the world. They're
their servants to their
Praetorian Guard. And we should
treat them with maximum contempt
because they have earned it.
Adam Curry: He knew he knew this
was coming. He knew this was
coming. No doubt about it. He
didn't know when but he knew he
knew the gun was loaded. It was
aimed at his head and I think he
was just enticing doing anything
he could including the you know,
I think he put it in the
newsletter The Rolling Stone had
the story. I love Rolling Stone,
Christian prophets. Blame. Satan
fired Tucker Carlson right wing
Christian say, Satan. Yes,
Satan. And he brought that up at
his heritage 50th anniversary
celebration. Keynote to get
John C Dvorak: that in there.
Oh, look at Vanity Fair thing. I
haven't had substack a party.
Come on Monday.
Adam Curry: Do you have do you
have is do you have a clip of
that of his heritage?
John C Dvorak: No, I don't Oh,
hold on. No, but I do have a
clip my thinking I have my
thoughts on it. I think there's
all these theories there's he
did this he did that. The most
clever and semi idealistic
explanation is from Vanity Fair.
There's a link to it in the
newsletter about
Adam Curry: about the about his
Rupert Murdoch's fiancee who
Without a Bible at a dinner
party, Tucker was
John C Dvorak: about Yeah, sure
that was it. And so that so they
claimed that Rupert got irked
about this and just decided to
get rid of Tucker get and get
rid of his show and get rid of
the fiance got rid all of
everything no but because Rupert
is kind of a freak about
religion but that that's corny
too, but that proves
Adam Curry: fair but if Vanity
Fair is also M five m this is
the whole all of M five M is is
crumbling before our very eyes.
No one No one What? What
John C Dvorak: is crumbling, but
there's still money there.
Adam Curry: Gives a ship listen
to this last night, the White
House Correspondents
Association. Did
John C Dvorak: I have some clips
from that?
Adam Curry: Great, so do i
Here's the comedian of the
evening, Roy Woods Jr.
Unknown: The easiest scandal to
follow. Was the Trump documents
scandal. That was the one that
was easy to steal. It might be
in the White House.
Adam Curry: Dude, dude. I had
two shows to prep. I couldn't
talk to anybody. I'm not
stealing your clips. Shut up.
Let me go.
Unknown: To the media, y'all
ditch our shop now jumped on
that story. As soon as the Trump
document story broke, everybody
was down at Mar a Lago. We're
reporting from the documents.
And then we found out Joe Biden
had documents too, and it was it
was not a big deal. Everybody
got document back with my
business. Oh, look at Chinese
Bob, would you look at?
Well done.
Adam Curry: Exactly. And they're
laughing at themselves because
they know it's true. And then
the craziest thing, you know,
this whole White House
Correspondents Association
Dinner is you know, what is it
for? Is it for college
scholarships
John C Dvorak: in media, from
people that are journalists.
Adam Curry: So, so they have
they have an award, the
Katharine Graham award for
courage and accountability. Who
was Katherine Graham, is she
supposed to be some courageous
journalist? She
John C Dvorak: is the one of the
original founder of The
Washington Post. She's very
famous. Okay. She was
highlighted in the movie. You
know about all the present
Woodward and Bernstein. So when
a green lighted it,
Adam Curry: she greenlighted the
OP. Oh, beautiful. So this has
to be given to someone who has
done some deep investigative
work, wouldn't you say? Yeah.
Did you see who won and why they
won? No. Let's listen
Unknown: to Katherine Graham
award for courage and
accountability, named in honor
of the legendary Washington Post
publisher goes this year to Josh
Gerstein and Alex ward of
Politico.
Adam Curry: And why why, for
what they do.
Unknown: The judges said
Politico's efforts to report
verify and publish the draft
Supreme Court opinion reversing
abortion rights and the
organization's follow up work
exploring the consequences of
the decision were globally
historic and groundbreaking. It
flipped the long standing belief
here in Washington DC that
nothing leaks from the Supreme.
Here was journalism about a
ruling that has had a profound
and immediate impact on 10s of
millions of lives. Take a look.
Breaking news out of Washington
breaking new report from
political
opinion, the Supreme Court could
be poised to strike down Roe v.
Wade.
This is a very unusual if not
completely, historically,
unprecedented leak
utterly unprecedented. Ly really
a stunning development and one
that's likely to shape the
country's social discourse based
on our reporting information
that both myself and my co
author Alex Ward obtained, it
does appear it has the backing
of five conservative justices
now raises questions about the
future of Roe vs. Wade and what
this means for abortion rights
in our country. Now,
Adam Curry: do you tell me if
I'm crazy about this? So they
got a leak. Super credible
John C Dvorak: supercritical is
funny when an award supermini
killing Euro leak,
Adam Curry: they got a leak. And
that that gets you the courage
and accountability Katherine
Graham award. Thanks for the
leak. I mean, this. That sounds
kind of dumb.
John C Dvorak: And I'm not gonna
argue.
Adam Curry: And then then here
is President Biden, who has said
something very weird about
Tucker Carlson. Very weird.
Unknown: We really have a record
be proud of vaccinating the
nation, transform the economy,
transform the children urge
story closely into victories and
midterm results. But the job
isn't finished. No. I mean, it
is for these for Tucker Carlson.
Adam Curry: Now listen to the
response. What do you think that
response is about? Whoa, whoa,
why why? Why was the media
horrific or aghast? Why would
they gasping about that? What do
you think that is?
John C Dvorak: I, I Well, first
of all, the comedian did a
Tucker Carlson joke and he got
kind of a smattering of lot of
uncomfortable laughs You have
that one? No, I do have some
stuff, but I don't have that
smattering of uncomfortable
laughs and then he called him
out on it. I have my clips from
wood are a little different than
doing you. I mean, except for
that specific clip. I was
noticing this and I didn't I
didn't make a collection. But I
will have I mean, I did listen
to Jimmy Fallon. When he did it,
they he was actually kind of
taken aback by the round of
applause that he got from his
own audience. And in contrast,
when he mentioned Don Lemon, who
was also fired, that he got an
offer from the audience.
Adam Curry: All right, let's
let's let's go back to this clip
and then listen to the gases and
then listen to what the
President says at the very end
of this clip.
Unknown: But the job isn't
finished. I mean, it is for
these for Tucker Carlson.
Adam Curry: I think they're all
realizing their own that they
all could get fired. I think
that's
John C Dvorak: that's absolutely
no doubt my mind. Let's not
cheer that people. We can we can
kind of clap mildly but let's
don't overdo it. Exactly.
Adam Curry: It is for these for
Tucker Carlson. What do you
think that's not reasonable? So
now, what does he mean by this?
Do you think that's not
reasonable? It's not reasonable
that he got fired or that that
Joe Biden had him fired? Because
that's almost what it sounds
like.
John C Dvorak: Wow, you know, I
didn't catch this part. Yeah, I
mean, this was going to be
something I was gonna clip for
Sunday, but not as you already
did this. That's a good thing to
try to deconstruct. I have no
idea why you say that. I don't
know. Why he defending his joke.
I mean, there's other ways of
doing it. I don't
Adam Curry: think he's defending
the joke. I think you said what
you think that isn't that thing
but but we do you think that's a
possible surprising
John C Dvorak: intro jack in
there.
Adam Curry: You should have said
it's no joke.
Unknown: What do you own about?
Not kidding, no joke. That's not
reasonable.
Adam Curry: Give me a break. Now
listen to this end.
Unknown: Give me a break look,
like often say, Don't compare me
Almighty compare me to the
alternative.
Adam Curry: What? Don't compare
me to the Almighty. compare me
to the alternative. I'm Joe
Biden. What is he Satan?
John C Dvorak: Is he talking
about Satan?
Adam Curry: He's literally
saying he's Satan.
Unknown: I often say Don't
compare me to the Almighty
compare me the alternative.
Adam Curry: That's out of the
blue. There's nothing to do with
Tucker Carlson. Don't compare me
to the Almighty how many Oh, my
knees are there is Tucker
Carlson the Almighty.
John C Dvorak: Well, definitely
not. I
Adam Curry: think the Almighty
in
John C Dvorak: generally one.
Yeah.
Adam Curry: Yes. So hemorrhage
alternative.
John C Dvorak: Satan. Satan.
He's
Adam Curry: just easy. All
right. Thanks, Joe. We know
you're Satan. Good. You see
John C Dvorak: that? Did you see
when I was looking at the cut
the camera would cut to Biden
every so often during this. He
looked like shit. It was so
poorly lit.
Adam Curry: Yeah. Oh, there was
a lot a lot of things wrong, a
lot of things wrong.
John C Dvorak: It was junk. And
so they cut it what did he what
he had, it just looked terrible
as all he's got liver spots all
over his face and turrible
wrinkles in his hair is falling
apart. And I was falling out.
Adam Curry: His whole face was
pretty, pretty tight.
John C Dvorak: Well, I look it
looked particularly bad. It
makes you wonder how would how
they're lighting these press
conferences.
Adam Curry: So So now thinking
back to you know why I think
that this was a whole bunch of
things started to stack up. The
Tucker Carlson was doing he you
know, he was saying hey, you
know, Jen MP had the January 6
tapes, and I got a clip about
that. But this this really, we
know that there's 1/3 rail in
television. That doesn't matter,
especially if you're news, but
doesn't matter if you're in
anything on television, there's
1/3 rail, just one, there is
only one that you cannot touch.
Just one Good evening and
welcome
Unknown: to Tucker Carlson
Tonight. How powerful exactly
are the big pharmaceutical
companies in this country? Well,
that's a big question. There are
a lot of ways to measure it. But
here are a few ways you can
measure it. In this country, Big
Pharma can advertise its drugs
directly to consumers. And
that's a little strange if you
think about it. Since consumers
don't prescribe drugs doctors do
so why are the drugs being
advertised directly to consumers
that's allowed in only one other
country. on the planet, but it's
allowed here. So it may not
surprise you that in this
country, drug companies spend
more on lobbying the Congress
than any other industry a lot
more than any other industry.
They don't do it by accident.
They do it because it pays off.
In a deal like this a pretty
remarkable deal. The drug
companies have worked out with
politicians. So the government
uses your tax dollars to buy
billions worth of their
products. And then in some
cases, forces you to use those
products. Work, sometimes they
don't work. In some cases, those
products can injure you. But no
matter what happens, there's
nothing you can do about it.
Because politicians have given
these companies complete
immunity. If their products hurt
or kill you. You can't sue them.
You're not even really allowed
to complain about it. That's an
incredible deal. Imagine if your
company had struck a deal like
that with the Congress. You'd
probably a lot richer than you
are. So that's power.
Adam Curry: Yeah. So that is the
third rail. You can't touch that
Tucker Carlson have been even
with a third of the ratings with
Greg Kilmeade. Nice guy. He has
the personality of a dish rag.
No personal person. Nice guy.
Nice guy. I've been on his radio
show. Same thing, like just
having zero personality. He's
very functional. I guarantee you
they're pulling in more money
than when Tucker Carlson the my
pillow guy was picking up
remnant ads for cheap. There was
no room
John C Dvorak: for trades. This
is not true. Oh really. Is not
true. His his numbers are way up
insurance. That advertising
thing ended. And he's getting
they were getting good money.
They were getting 60,000,070
According to Variety I was
looking at I was I was trying to
figure out what this was.
Adam Curry: I'd love to see
that. Well. It still doesn't
mean that big pharma doesn't
hold for men. No,
John C Dvorak: I'm not arguing I
might. I took a different tact.
But I'm gonna the column will
explain it because I think the
drug thing was definitely part
of the mix. Because he was doing
then that is third rail and
nobody wants to talk about it
because they can't.
Adam Curry: You can't even talk
about it being the issue.
John C Dvorak: But I concluded
that is really his anti war
stance. Yes,
Adam Curry: I am in 100%
agreement. This is NBC
Unknown: off the air does not
mean out of sight. Tucker,
Carlson's video on Twitter
viewed nearly 20 million times.
The other thing you notice when
you take a little time off is
how unbelievably stupid most of
the debates you see on
television are.
Notably Tucker Carlson did not
mention Fox News nor the reason
for his departure. Messages
revealed because of Dominion
voting systems defamation
lawsuit may have played a role
according to The New York Times
to people with knowledge of the
discussions
Adam Curry: that it here here
you see the cover up by all the
other media, although I think
Joy Reid mentioned that. They
they can't even mention the real
reasons which is definitely
Pharma. And I think you are
correct, or I agree with you on
on the war,
Unknown: say the night before
Fox settled the case with
dominion for nearly $800
million. top executives and
board members learned of quote,
highly offensive and crude
messages crossing sent in the
past, and it triggered a crisis.
Fox has not publicly provided a
reason for getting rid of
Carlson.
Adam Curry: I think Madison was
this second clip from NBC.
Unknown: Meanwhile, the 8pm
audience on the Fox News Channel
Tuesday night was down about 50%
from a typical night with
Carlson, do you think he has the
power to take those people who
watched him loyally someplace
else? And is there a platform
that makes sense,
he undoubtedly has the power to
take his audience from Fox News.
But maintaining the same
influence may be harder.
When you are on television. You
have a long tail on the
internet. People are trading
your videos. You don't get as
long a tail when you do you know
friends Tucker Carlson dotnet
viewed a
high profile host out of a job
but not out of the public.
Adam Curry: Fringe Tucker,
Carlson dotnet. Okay. Here a
couple of joy read clips. I
think the military is mentioned
here.
Unknown: Tonight on the read
out, read out
what's going on in the conflict
between Ukraine and Russia? I'm
serious. Like why do I do why?
Why should I root for Russia?
Which might be worth asking
yourself since it is getting
pretty serious. What is this
really about? Why do I hate
Putin so much? As Putin ever
called me a racist? Has he
threatened to get me fired for
disagreeing with him?
No American TV host spouted
Russian talking points the way
Tucker did. And Russia is saying
it is sad to see him go Well,
tonight there's new information
on what led to his Russia.
Adam Curry: Yes, and this is
what
John C Dvorak: I hear
everywhere. Is Russia say
anything?
Adam Curry: This is what I'm
hearing everywhere is Oh, yeah,
you know, that guy is just it
was just it was Putin talking
all the time Putin. So instead
of understand ending that he was
at war instead of being honest
and saying he was talking about
the war. They turned it around.
I was like, oh, you know what
this works this work with Trump
just said to Russia, yeah.
Number two here. Number two.
Unknown: Tucker took the lead
when it came to writing a
revisionist history of the
insurrection with the help of
Adam Curry: another good one.
Another, another problematic
issue with Mr. Carlson
Unknown: McCarthy, who handed
him and no one else 40,000 hours
of footage from that day, which
Tucker's selectively edited to
frame the angry mob
John C Dvorak: stuff for a
second. This selectively edited
thing cracks me up to this day.
They show is basically they show
the guy with the horns on his
head, there's no edits
whatsoever. And he yet they just
show the guy rolling around and
then being escorted by the cops
here in there and in and out of
rooms and whatever. And then
they left again, to get pretty
much let the guy go. And how is
that the unlocking? Is a piece
out of out of 40,000 hours?
Yeah, there was something taken
from that 40,000 hours, but to
say, selectively edited, makes
it sound like they created
something out of nothing, right?
Doesn't it make it sound like
they created a narrative that
did not exist? Yeah,
Adam Curry: in fact, what joy
Reid is doing is creating a
narrative that did not exist.
This is this is this is
historic, maybe if we're lucky,
if we're lucky if we get out of
this. And enough people realize
how full of crap that M five m
is. If we're lucky. This will be
John C Dvorak: lucky. If we're
lucky. If we're lucky.
Adam Curry: I'm not saying that
we'll get lucky but it's
possible if there's some people
just might wake up I don't know
it might not. Not everybody. No,
no, no, I'm I have some positive
clips about this. Let's go back
to Joy read because it's too
Unknown: fun for turning the
election as meek sightseers, the
Carlson's
Adam Curry: and by the way, this
show is of influence. We are of
influence there are a lot of
people who listen to our show
across all what in fact, we have
no people of influence
listening. We have only normal
regular cops. We got we got
cops, we got nurses, we got some
John C Dvorak: guys that
disinvited foreign desk at the
CIA.
Adam Curry: Okay, they love it
to
Unknown: our producer Eddie
Grossberg told the great Nicole
Wallace yesterday, what else he
tried to do with that footage.
When the January 6 tapes were
coming out, Tucker was very set
on finding an FBI person who was
implanted in the crowd and
spinning this conspiracy, that
they were ultimately the ones
responsible for the Capitol
attack. I went back to them and
said, Look, there's no
conspiracy theory here. I call
this attorney that's
representing one of the proud
boys and he flat out told me on
two occasions,
Adam Curry: by the way,
attorneys are great people to
take information from they are
always truthful.
Unknown: There is no conspiracy.
Get away from this stuff. This
is dangerous. Tell Tucker to
stop. I'll come on your show and
represent my client.
John C Dvorak: Oh, well, did you
bring him on? So
Unknown: normally we'll walk off
if he asks me this. And the
response was find somebody else
Tucker is really intent on this
Adam Curry: that's that Abby a
woman that that filed the
lawsuit who was a booker
essentially, and never even met
Tucker and she'd filed a boat
never
John C Dvorak: met Tucker's
never met Booker and let's let's
just stop here and discuss for
the masses what a booker is. Now
Booker is is depending on the
operation is considered one of
the producers but what they
really are is a booker there's
someone who makes phone calls
all days and get get
Adam Curry: has a Rolodex.
That's the only reason they
bounce around
John C Dvorak: the company
Rolodex it might not even be her
own Rolodex. There are company
Rolodex as you can believe that
Abby wetter in her last name
Grossman. GROSSMAN when she left
she didn't take all her name.
She may have her own version of
the of the Rolodex but those
names are still a property of
Fox
Adam Curry: you know that is
Megyn Kelly also couldn't work
with her hated her when she was
at Fox.
John C Dvorak: No, I didn't know
that's an interesting little
tidbit a little tip but but
Booker's are like the third to
go the first to go our wardrobe.
They get the wardrobe and you
started doing cut back wardrobes
out you got to dress yourself
now. And it shows on a lot of
shows. You can see it on
Adam Curry: makeup, makeup, then
light makeup lighting after
that.
John C Dvorak: We'll make up his
next lighting may or may not be
after that but then the Booker's
go and then they get generic
Booker's and use the company
Rolodex, yeah, it's a low end
job. Yeah. That's very
important, but I think wardrobe
and makeups very important too,
but they go they get rid of them
and they keep the middlemen that
don't do anything. It's
Adam Curry: basically one of
Booker's in my opinion and I
apologize in advance to the
booker for Megyn Kelly if she
doesn't hear this because she
won't she doesn't listen Oh, she
rushed into this Thursday they
don't have to they're they're a
step above a tabloid journalist.
They know all the dirt what's
going on because you know they
they have their finger on the
pulse of what's hot they tried
to pick the hits who's hot who
do we need who's hot that that's
how they do it. Anyway.
John C Dvorak: Exactly.
Adam Curry: What final clip from
jewelry
Unknown: but none of that seem
to matter to the fox executive
suite know what actually pushed
them over the edge. According to
new reporting from the Wall
Street Journal was his quote
vulgar and offensive messages
about them about his colleagues
that were in the redacted
portions of the Dominion filings
including the time that he
called a senior executive at Fox
the C word according to people
familiar with the matter.
Adam Curry: C word. The C word
John C Dvorak: familiar with the
Maris C word? He doesn't seem
it. He doesn't seem like the
O'Reilly style of man of post
where he's chewing out people
and yelling We'll do it live.
Adam Curry: No, you know what,
you know what's happening is in
between because he does the show
live in between the commercial
breaks or during the commercial
breaks? He said, Uber loses
idiot who is this C word that
book this person or you know,
couldn't get back to me. I mean,
he's not talking to me directly,
but
John C Dvorak: he doesn't strike
me as anything like O'Reilly no
does seem really a mean like a
mean spirited person. Yeah. So
Chris seems like a goofball.
More. Yeah. Means
Adam Curry: I would agree. I
would agree.
John C Dvorak: No, I have a
clip. Yeah. This is the view.
announcement and Eric
Adam Curry: Booker, who's your
clip Booker,
John C Dvorak: you have to
listen very carefully to the
very end because this again
brings me back to my point. This
is the view on Tucker, where it
has just come down that Fox News
Media and Tucker Carlson have
agreed to part way
Unknown: Wait
Come on, folks.
Na na na na.
He is responsible for the
degradation that we see somewhat
of our democracy in this
country. And I just think as a
faithful person, look at God,
look at God, well in
Russian propaganda hardest.
I mean, he's been the biggest
purveyor of progress in coffee.
So it's a good day for the
Ukraine karma karma does was
address.
Adam Curry: So what does this
look at God stuff? Sonny? I
shouldn't he's thrown out
John C Dvorak: there. Good thing
that I wanted you to hear what
you probably able to step down
by them. It's a good day for the
Ukraine war.
Adam Curry: Oh, crap. Let me
listen again.
Unknown: He is responsible for
Adam Curry: here after the
Nananana.
John C Dvorak: Yes, after it's
the very end. Okay,
Unknown: the degradation that we
see somewhat of our democracy in
this country. And I just think
as a faithful person, look at
God, look at
God, well in Russian propaganda
hardest. I mean, he's been the
biggest purveyor of progress in
coffee. Yeah. So it's a good day
for the Ukraine. Karma.
Adam Curry: Catch, good catch.
Yes. It's a good game. Good day
for the Ukraine war. It is. It
is the biggest budget item in
the in our annual budget eight
$900 billion. And they have a
lot of power, clearly. And now
you have to question who has
more power
John C Dvorak: no big pharma guy
or person anymore on any
mainstream media director could
fight that he's the last one.
They got rid of him. And now
there's I have thought around
this because because the the
left in particular and this is a
left leaning show and all of
them are all in Ukraine.
Wargaming left leaning, left
leaning show. Wow. Okay, they're
Maoist. But the point is, is
that when I was a kid, and I
brought this up and one of the
triggering points that got me to
thinking that this is all really
about the Ukraine war is the
ouster of Phil Donahue in 2000,
I think was 2003. Phil Donahue
was fired with number one show
on MSNBC because he was anti
Iraq War. And it came out in
memos that were released by
leakers by an NBC they said we
had to get rid of this guy
because he's anti war, and he
was an anti war voice but he was
a left winger and they were
demanding that he put right
wingers on because the right
wing at the time, and in 2002 Or
three, we're all war mongers and
they all were until Trump came
along. And it when I was a kid,
it was the left that was the
peak snicks and the left were
big shot or no war, no more war,
and they made a big fuss about
it until they changed from
drafting kids out of college
into having a professional army.
Once that happened, it turned
out that the left wasn't
peaceniks anymore. It was all
about them getting drafted and
now they're all war mongers
along with the right and that
would Tucker was the last
vestige of of anyone who maybe
thought war was a bad idea he's
gone.
Adam Curry: I agree that that to
me, is the official no agenda
reason.
John C Dvorak: So there you have
it, and, and what really irks me
to the no extreme extreme is
that when I was at Cal and
Berkeley when the left was all
these anti war or anti war, anti
war, the lib Joe friends of mine
all those guys was once we're
all anti war, but they're all
pro war. Now. How does that
happen? Thank
Adam Curry: you What what
happened? It's a spell. It has
to be a spell. I can't be
anything else. This is this is
people are not thinking
rationally. They have been just
inundated. It comes from Trump.
Of course, the Russian collusion
you know, just Trump Trump's the
Russia got Trump got trumping so
in Russia is the problem. It's
not No, it's not Russia. It's
Putin. It's not even Russia.
It's one guy. It's Putin one
guy. And the reason why I'm
optimistic about this being
should be quiet now. The reason
why I'm optimistic about this
being the tipping point, tipping
point the walls are closing in.
The walls are closing in on the
M five M, the mainstream media
was this just one of many heroes
who stood up at some bullcrap
university lecture, the
situation with executive editors
from the New York Times in The
Washington
John C Dvorak: Post. I saw this
and I said, Should I clip this
melodic clip? Yeah. And I said,
No, I make it. I mean, it would
be great to clip it. If you
clipped anyone to play it. I'm
all in. I only
Adam Curry: took like a minute
45 And that's a no it goes on
for a very four minutes. This
guy is fabulous. I think he also
looked black, which made it even
funnier. And this is why I'm
optimistic.
Unknown: Oh, is this the lecture
hall with Seymour Hersh?
Adam Curry: Right off the bat.
The guy has humor.
Unknown: I just I'm looking for
the one with Seymour Hersh
because it's a policy and press
John C Dvorak: event shopping
again give a little more
background on what we're looking
at. We're live Okay, so
Adam Curry: this is i i
apologize I don't know which
university this is and
intellectual Hall and onstage
it's a conversation with two
editors executive editors one
for was it for?
John C Dvorak: I thought it was
for total editors.
Adam Curry: Well, there had to
be three and then one moderator
I think
John C Dvorak: no, i There were
four people It seemed to me they
were all executive editors, New
York Times Washington Post and
one other two other
Adam Curry: maybe Wall Street
Journal doesn't matter. It's all
top notch. The top notch the top
notch people top guys come in
for some context. What is the
job of an executive editor?
John C Dvorak: They oversee the
paper they depend depends on the
structure of the of the
publisher, they're all
different. But generally
speaking, the executive editor
is like above the editor in
chief and calls the shots so the
direction of the paper
Adam Curry: they're the sensors
is what you're saying. They are
the actual sensor.
John C Dvorak: Sensors are
actually the reporters.
Adam Curry: They said they sent
her on the way they sell center,
John C Dvorak: but they can't
admit to it but that's what they
do. So they're up
Adam Curry: here talk Whoa,
blah, blah, blah, blah. It's
while we're doing important work
and we got leaks. We got to make
sure they're supreme pod
Marbella. Balls balls we call
them balls. Just a bunch of
balls sitting up there being all
hoity toity Degas is really
executive. Okay, and then this
guy just stands up at the mic.
And by the way, what you see is
no one's going, Oh, what is he
doing? Now? The people are like,
dudes making some sense over
here. Okay, a couple of them
have masks on but still, like no
one has let
John C Dvorak: him go. Yeah, I'm
Russia by the fact that somebody
didn't just cut the mic.
Adam Curry: No, because everyone
knows that. This is what's going
on. This is why I'm optimistic.
Unknown: Oh, is this the lecture
hall with Seymour Hersh? I just
I'm looking for the one with
Seymour Hersh because it's a
policy and press hall event. So
shouldn't we be talking about
the Nord Stream since that's the
biggest story of the century.
And you guys, you know, I mean,
you have the executive editor of
the New York Times there who
came out with a phony story to
try and block Seymour Hersh. It
just, it's just kind of funny
how that happened. You know? I
mean, did you even acknowledge
Seymour Hersh? All of you were
executive editors of papers that
broke pentagon. Me lie.
Watergate. Is this the same
papers? Not i
Adam Curry: which by the way
were her stories just to remind
everybody me lie Watergate well,
not watching but he also know
that he also reported on
Watergate but he didn't break
it. But me lie. That was him.
That was her. Yeah. Well, so he
got started. This guy is
informed. No, we should have
this guy on as a guest to donate
donation Secretary
Unknown: Watergate, is this the
same papers or not? I mean, is
there anything you've gotten
right in the last 20 years? Or
am I mistaken about that? I
mean, it's just kind of funny
because I rack wrong. Syria,
wrong. Russia gate really wrong.
Okay. I mean, the list goes on
and on. So the last thing you
could do to try and actually fix
your reputation is acknowledge
that through leaks,
Adam Curry: we had to find
someone said shut up. Ooh,
someone said shut up. Man
station is
Unknown: acknowledged that
through leaks, we had to find
out that the Lenski was going to
bomb Moscow on the anniversary.
I mean, if you're so impartial,
shouldn't you at least say
Right, that's the Lenski was
going to bring us on the verge
of world war three. That seems
pretty fair. While Julian
Assange rots in prison, all of
you got you know, fat checks,
because he's in jail for doing
your job. And you know what,
Tucker Carlson ain't no Seymour
Hersh, but he did something you
guys are scared to do speak the
truth and actually be critical
of the war, which is why he was
actually fired from God, because
you are all cows. A single one
of you. None of you actually had
any relevancy. And you know
what, the mainstream press is
now dying. Nobody's ever gonna
listen to you again. You have no
credibility with the public. The
only people who care about what
you have to say are elite
assholes. When nothing to say
anymore.
Adam Curry: That's my boy right
there. So I'm talking about
John C Dvorak: love the elite.
Adam Curry: The only people the
elite assholes. Exactly,
exactly. So I have great hope.
Well, I
John C Dvorak: want to play my
series of wood clips, because I
clipped the parts where he's
actually goes after the media a
little bit was similar. Would
would Roy Wood Jr. Oh,
Adam Curry: perfect, please,
because I only I didn't see it.
You know, I had to go to bed
early because you know, I'm
invalid.
John C Dvorak: should not talk
like this. And
Adam Curry: I just say should I
just say something amazing.
Amazing. What happened to me?
John C Dvorak: I'm waiting.
Yeah. Okay.
Adam Curry: So at eight implants
put in. And as part of that
process, Maverick, he's my
periodontist. He raised my
sinuses up a couple millimeters.
I didn't even know it was a
thing. Gone either. And now it's
not the left ear but the right
ear. The hearing has improved
even more.
John C Dvorak: Even more
something that needs to be
studied. It does something
something. This is ridiculous.
distort your story.
Adam Curry: And I can tell
because I have my I went from
headphones at 11 to headphones
at six and today they're at five
and I heard it. I heard it right
away. It's kind of weird. I
heard it when I took Phoebe out
to pee. And I heard her peeing
out of my right ear. I've never
heard that before. Like, whoa,
why do I yeah, I'm
John C Dvorak: telling you. This
is the this is going on? non
trivial.
Adam Curry: It's not and people
go see your dentist, go see a
periodontist have a scan done.
What?
John C Dvorak: I think your Dez
was surprised by this. No, no,
no, no. Well, he says this all
the time
Adam Curry: that he says the
amount of things of ailments
people have because of their
sinuses, which is due to
infection of their upper molars
is astounding. The hearing thing
is new to him. That is new
because but I'm tune into it. I
know what my hearing is what it
became. I know what you're
John C Dvorak: what you're
falling into that
Adam Curry: one falls forward.
Wow.
John C Dvorak: All right, let's
go into Roy Wood Jr. This is C D
which is good correspondents
dinner one.
Unknown: I'm happy to be here at
this event amongst government
officials who speak to MSNBC
former government officials who
now worked at MSNBC and future
government officials at MSNBC
John C Dvorak: so he got that
through now the only thing that
actually I wasn't gonna record
any of this until he did this
joke. This was one of his lines
that I actually laughed out loud
and said I gotta get get a few
clips from this sketch. Let's go
clip to
Unknown: an often overlooked
purpose of tonight's dinner, you
know, serious business. The
overlooked purpose of tonight's
dinner is to award scholarships
to students who have shown great
achievements in journalism or
the future of the industry. I'd
like to stop right now and to
congratulate tonight's top
scholarship recipients Arizona
State singer George Santos.
Adam Curry: I never heard of
this word guy.
John C Dvorak: He's, he's one of
the writers of The Daily Show.
Oh, just some sketches there.
Yeah, he's actually was quite
good. His timing was good.
Everything was. And then the
last clip I have because the
scandal clipboard he played is
the paywalls clip. And this is
clip five. And this one, this
one really hit with a thump. But
it was like I thought this was a
very good interesting clip.
Unknown: Tonight is all about
you all the journalists, the
defenders of free speech, the
people who show truth to the
world, through different mediums
through television, through
print through radio, to whatever
China let us see you on tick
tock. The industry that covers
all of these scandals, isn't
immune to them. There's so the
issue with media is that most
people can't afford that. All
the essential, fair and nuanced
reporting is all stuck behind a
paywall. Yes. People can't
afford let people can't afford
food, not healthy food. They
can't afford an education they
damn sure can't afford to pay
for the truth. As soon as you
want about a conspiracy theory,
but at least is affordable.
Adam Curry: Wow. That is you
know, there's another there's
another reason that they're just
going down the tube paywalls pay
away for a while. The only thing
that gets gets heat these days
is is headlines. You know the
headlines is all people see. And
all they did
John C Dvorak: was help that
along. Yeah. And they're just do
Adam Curry: screenshots and the
screenshot around my pet peeve.
screenshot of the of just
whatever paywalled article there
is. I don't even click on it.
You know who you are?
John C Dvorak: Yeah, the funny
thing about paywalls is the New
York Times has the worst one. I
don't know if I should be
revealing this,
Adam Curry: bro. It's so easy to
get around these paywalls
12 ft.io
John C Dvorak: ft is not that
great. And I'll tell you
something about the New York
Times. I got it New York Times
one. Take one year, take one of
your less used browsers and turn
off JavaScript. Yeah,
Adam Curry: exactly. Or, like
Bloomberg Bloomberg has an
impenetrable paywall. Except
Bloomberg, all you do is just
copy the headline and then
search Yahoo because then you'll
find that Yahoo buys, buys it
from them publishes the whole
thing for free. Yeah, but that's
a lot of work for people. You
know, people don't want it No.
hassle, by the way, all the
celebrators were out. Fabulous.
Brittney Griner gotta call out
who has a receding hairline? How
does that work?
John C Dvorak: There's nude
pictures of her that she's just
some dude with no shirt. That's
what I think too. But okay, no,
there's no thinking about it.
You should see these pictures.
Adam Curry: I've seen the
pictures are no. So let's just
continue for a moment because
there was another firing which
is not unimportant and happened
on the same day within MIT. The
announcement came within
minutes, not from CNN, but from
Don Lemon himself. And I think
did the clip custodian do this
for me? I think no, maybe this
was this was Steve Jones did
this. A couple clips here that
when you know it was just like
Tucker, I saw Molly would post.
Well, it's all about the
misogyny. It's like Don Lemon
was misogynist against women and
their prime trucker was
misogynist to call them women to
see where no, Molly would no new
clip it for her. No. Could you
get out of your butt? Mollywood.
Does anyone know who Mollywood
is anymore? Okay, I'm sorry. No,
this is what it's about. He was
armed with avec Ramaswamy and
Don Lemon went off the rails off
the rails off the rails, I want
you
Unknown: to raise your hand. If
you know when the first anti gun
laws were passed in this
country. Raise your hand if you
do. 1865 you want to know what
happened? We fought a civil war
in this country to give Black
Americans the equal protection
under the law that we failed to
secure them in 1776.
Adam Curry: So this is from his
speech at the NRA. Now do you
think that lines up with the
truth what Rebecca saying here?
John C Dvorak: These bill I'm
reminded of if you remember this
Tavis Smiley we had a clip of
it. year this is years ago, a
decade ago, Tavis Smiley, who
had a talk show on on PBS. NPR,
I believe is the producers. And
he was cancelled and kicked off
the air shortly after he went
off about how the Second
Amendment is the greatest thing
it ever happened to the black
population? So we could be armed
and protect ourselves. And that
that's No, that was no good. And
that was the end of Tavis
Smiley, well, part part of
Tavis. So I believe the Yeah, I
do believe this is true part of
time. I
Adam Curry: do believe I do
believe part of time to have a
Smiley's issue was he railed on
Obama? I remember that. That
did. That did not help. I'm
looking to see it. I don't see
any clip about the guns per se.
Anyway. Okay. I'm an agreement
with you. I mean, there was a
lot of things, the Civil War,
but this, it was appropriate to
use this at the NRA speech. I
mean, if you're going to be
there might as well talk about
guns.
Unknown: But then you want to
know what happened. Southern
states passed anti gun laws that
stopped black people from owning
guns, the Democrat Party, then
as a now wanted to put them back
in chains.
Adam Curry: Yes, yes. That I
know from the most show this.
This is totally true.
Unknown: Then as of now, that's
quite an accusation about the
current Democratic Party. Who
and What were you referring to?
I was referring to Joe Biden and
his expression of wanting to put
them back and change dating back
to Lyndon Johnson.
Adam Curry: Do we remember that
clip? Put him on Lyndon
John C Dvorak: Johnson. I have
them. No, no, no, no. I
Adam Curry: mean, Joe Biden, put
them put them in chains. Here
this one? No. Do we have it?
Yeah.
Unknown: Romney wants to let it
he said the first 100 days. He's
gonna let the big banks once
again write their own rules on
chain, Wall Street. They gonna
put y'all back in chains.
Adam Curry: I was quite
controversial from Old Joe there
John C Dvorak: back in the day
was a he was a it was great to
firebrand, he's
Adam Curry: a decent nut job.
Unknown: I think Lyndon Johnson,
so called a great society was
one of the greatest misnomers in
American political his
Adam Curry: Lyndon Johnson was a
known race history, where even
back
Unknown: then in the 1960s 70%
plus of black kids were born
into two parent homes. Today,
that number is less than 30% in
the opposite direction. The very
policies that we implemented in
this country in the name of
helping black Americans have
actually been disastrous for
black Americans and all
Americans. And I think that
that's something that we need to
wake up to
in 1865. You're talking about
the Black Codes, right? That's
right past enacted to make it a
crime for a black person to
carry a gun to that south. But
you're equating that to the
current president, you're
referring to economic change.
What are you saying?
Well, I was referring to Joe
Biden's I think Ill chosen
expression to say they're the
party that wants to put you back
into chains. All right. So
Adam Curry: that's, that's a
reasonable setup. There's no
reason for anyone to get super
butthurt because there's a
factual argument that they can
have but Don Lemon, que all of a
sudden, Don Lemon is Martin
Luther King, what?
Unknown: Do you have anything on
this before I move on to see
what the one has to do with the
other but go on, I took up a lot
of time with Fox, it's fine. We
don't really see what one has to
do with the other especially
considering and using the Civil
War, to talk about black
Americans that war was not
fought for black people to have
guns. That's that's that's not
that war was
fought for black people to have
freedoms in this country. Yeah,
actually, that's why the Civil
War was fought. Okay,
this works out a lot for black
people to have guns, I think,
actually, you know, funny fact
is black people did not get to
enjoy the other freedoms until
Second Amendment rights were
secured. And I think that that's
one of the lessons that we
aren't allowed to enjoy the
freedoms. I
disagree with you on that. I
disagree with that. And I think
you're doing a disservice to our
country by failing to recognize
the fact that we have
a loss and then you live in this
country, then you can disagree
with me, but we're not you
mentioned that in the different
shots. I
think we have to be able to talk
about these issues. Oh,
Adam Curry: listen to this.
Listen to this. I don't know if
you can catch it. But he's
saying, Well, when you live in a
different skin, you can talk to
me about it. We have three
shades of melanin on the show.
This guy is a racist. You think
a racist I agree with you
Unknown: on that done. I
disagree with you. And I think
you're doing a disservice to our
country by failing to recognize
the fact that you're already
black,
and then you live in this
country, then you can disagree
with me, but we're not you
mentioned in a different shot. I
think we have to be able to talk
about these issues in the open
regardless of the color of our
skin.
Adam Curry: So VEC kind of
scoring a run here. But then Don
just can't leave it alone. The
control room was going on.
Unknown: There that to 1865 in
1964 65. And
I think it's insulting to black
people. It's insulting to me as
an African American, I don't
want to sit and argue with you.
Because it's not generating for
you to put that to put those
things together. It's not right.
Right. You're telling us history
is wrong.
Your history was wrong.
About the Civil War was fought
you making people think that the
civil wars fought for black
people only for black people to
get guns.
Adam Curry: Wait a minute, how
many times if I heard from Don
Lemon, that the Civil War was
fought to free the slaves even
though there's a states rights
issue and there's all kinds of
other things will go on? This?
He's going against the the The
established narrative.
John C Dvorak: No, no, he's what
he said, from his perspective, I
think is not not against any
narrative. It's from his
perspective. He says that the
Civil War was not fought for
black people who get guns. It's
what he said specifically, I
think it's fine from him from
him.
Unknown: You're making people
think that the Civil War is
fought for black people only for
black people to get guns and for
black people to
civil wars fought for black
people in this country to get
freedoms, a noble mission. And I
think that it even after we
succeeded, we had to actually
secure the freedoms
to reduce it. In a speech at the
NRA to say you're making people
think you say that black people
to get guns. That was that was
the reason that you're there at
the NRA. That was a reason for
for the Civil War. It is
reductive, it's insulting. There
are a whole piece of reasons for
this. So it's
due respect, I find I find your
explanation reductive and
actually insulting, including
the black Americans to say the
black people today, compared to
1964 1865 haven't made progress
in part because of the freedoms
we secured.
Adam Curry: So what is wrong
with what Don Lemon is doing
here? It feels very wrong from a
morning show television host
perspective.
John C Dvorak: Well, first of
all, it's a morning show, so it
shouldn't be. It should be like
no worry. Yes, airy. I think
we've talked about this before,
which is the morning show is a
structured show that has to be
giggly. It has light and airy it
can't be you know about deep gun
debates, the Second Amendment
stuff and race and racism and
racist I mean, Don is not a
dumb. Well, that's why I've said
this before, and I'll say it
again, they put Don Lemon in the
morning slot, knowing full well
that is nuts. He's after
midnight guy. Yeah, you know.
There's, there's really is a
huge difference in person that
you can't put a guy like that on
a morning show and expect him to
succeed because he doesn't have
the personality for it. And
those women weren't going to let
him succeed anyway, because they
hated him. This was I think it
was was beautiful the way it was
structured to get rid of me, you
know, he walked away at $25
million as a parachute.
Adam Curry: Well, hold on. Let's
get the final the final dagger.
The final dagger in the back
Unknown: and the Second
Amendment was
I cannot keep a thought if you
guys are talking in my ear.
Adam Curry: Like Don Shut up,
you're gonna get fired. Stop it
Stop.
Unknown: Hang on one second. So
to say that black people hold
John C Dvorak: on a second stop.
And again, by the way, somebody
who sent us a note saying you
anyway you two guys, you're both
the same. You're interrupting
the clips.
Adam Curry: Yes. Yeah.
John C Dvorak: And I said he has
called what we do on the show.
Yeah, because some of the times
you notice these things. I
didn't notice the first time I
heard this that he said yeah, he
bitched about being yak that in
his in his I have been
Adam Curry: overrode not the
director. He overrode the line
producer or the executive
producer who was saying Stop it.
Stop it. Stop it. Stop it. Stop
it.
Unknown: I cannot keep a thought
if you guys are talking in my
ear. Hang on one second.
John C Dvorak: I cannot clip a
thought if you guys are talking
into my ear. You're right. That
is grounds for firing right
there.
Adam Curry: You overrode
authority Don Lemon. You will
repent
John C Dvorak: black Yep. Oh,
that's a very it's a great
catch. Say what you said again,
black people
Unknown: secured their freedoms
after the Civil War and as a
historical fact don't just study
it. Only after their Second
Amendment rights were secured.
secured their freedoms
Adam Curry: after the Civil
insubordination is what it is
insubordination do we don't have
to listen the rest of the clip
that was it. That was that was
that was that was the moment
where Don Lemon got fired?
Because whoever it was, had the
power. You do?
John C Dvorak: Yeah, it had to
be it had to be more than just a
director. It had to be some
higher up. You can see it
already jumped the shark earlier
and somebody that is directors
was probably yakking at him, he
wouldn't listen. And so he waved
over the producer, somebody
who's really the boss. It's I
can't get this guy to shut up
about this. And so he took over
the mic, the top guy, whoever
that is, or Gallagher or GAO, it
could be a guy or gal guy or gal
doesn't matter. Yeah, probably a
gal in the morning. And she
said, You got to stop doing this
immediately. And he did. And
then he chewed them out and said
you can't keep yakking at me in
my ear. Isn't that crazy? You're
out. You're done.
Adam Curry: Yeah, yep. That's
that's that's that he got a $25
million payout. Really? Yep. I
think those days are also over.
I think today's Let's hope so. I
think the days of big money like
that are over. I just don't see
the ratings justifying it. You
had an interesting take. And we
should just wind up this long
drawn out conversation about the
depth of the M rip M five M.
Yeah, I'm telling you people are
people are onto it. It's for
it's for rich ask,
John C Dvorak: what was my take
Adam Curry: your take was it to
Tucker is gonna go to CNN which
I liked a lot.
Unknown: Very good. Very good.
John C Dvorak: I thought about
this and I said it before and I
think I posted it a few times. I
don't have it in my upcoming
essay on how he got fired. But
it seems to me that that the
minute Tucker was fired, then
they fired immediately fired Don
Lemon, which is like a signal.
Okay, okay. Okay, let's get rid
of this guy. And then to take to
take Tucker. It would seem to me
to be genius by discovery, who
now owns CNN and wishes John
Malone has have a lot of control
over it. He's a right winger to
take Tucker right from Fox and
put them in the exact same 8pm
slot. would destroy it, Fox.
Adam Curry: Yeah, it's never
gonna happen. Dream on is never
John C Dvorak: over. You know,
this thing is these guys aren't
smart enough to pull that off.
And I also
Adam Curry: don't think Tucker
is gonna go to rumble or the
blaze or anything. I agree. He
is going to do further.
John C Dvorak: We may have heard
the last a Tucker.
Adam Curry: No, no, he is going
to do his own show. He's always
been a fan of what Adam Carolla
did and what Joe Rogan has done.
He's been a he's just a big fan
of hiring the people you want.
He doesn't want any. Any
John C Dvorak: ghosts as in I
mean, he's not going to make any
money while you're driving
cares. He's not going to make
any money. He's going to just
it's a vanity thing. No, no,
it's no, no money involved, as
far as I'm concerned. Doing what
is this? We're doing? We were
not going broke doing it? No.
But my point is, we don't have
negative cash flow.
Adam Curry: We could be making a
lot more money if we if we sold
out to the M five M 850,000.
That's 850 CPMs at $25. Hello,
nine.
John C Dvorak: Oh, fortune. All
right. The problem is to show
its suck. Yes,
Adam Curry: exactly. It has
nothing to do with vanity. I
think now, I don't know if he
can pull it off. Without without
the infrastructure he's used to
having, you know, we have a big
head start on on understanding
how old is he understands it
now? In fact, no, he does. He
sees what the M five m is? Does
he know how to deconstruct like,
we do know, is it just gonna be
an interview show like Joe Rogan
that would be a fail. That would
be a bad idea. He needs to he
needs is not as let's just
opening segment he needs to do
his opening segment his opening
statement. And this is written
for him. Yes, that's fine.
That's what I'm saying. That is
what he can do. And he can do
that and distributed as far and
wide as he want. As you want. I
don't think he cares about money
he has enough is he's a he's a
child of a he's an heir to a
fortune.
John C Dvorak: He doesn't need
the money. But this is this is
what you're describing as the
O'Reilly podcast.
Adam Curry: No, no, no. No. Oh,
Riley left as a sleazeball. Who
paid $65 million to women? He
harassed, little different?
John C Dvorak: No, I'm talking
about the product, not the
Adam Curry: place. But that's
part of the products. Now he is
going to set it all up. He wants
to have you know, his own show.
He's going to how he's going to
put it everywhere. Maybe I don't
know. And it's not
John C Dvorak: Tucker
carlson.net.
Adam Curry: And it may not work
I'm with you. I may not work but
I think that's what he that's
what's in his heart. And there's
nothing wrong with that. Either
that or what I think he really
should do. I think he should
become a televangelist. That
would be a success formula for
Tucker Carlson. Wow. Think about
well, that's off the wall. Think
about it. Think about it. That
would you
John C Dvorak: eat it probably
actually do.
Adam Curry: Yeah. You know, he
is
John C Dvorak: pre cheese
preachy.
Adam Curry: Yes. Now that the
whole heritage speech was good,
I liked I thought it was
dynamite. The only thing he's
done
John C Dvorak: other speeches, I
caught them and they're he's
definitely more preachy and more
gregarious as it televangelists
style. And in fact, he's even
more so than some of these
megachurch guys, who I've seen
do who? They were actually laid
back by comparison could
Adam Curry: have a mega church.
Yeah. The thing he has to stop
doing is he has to store that
John C Dvorak: data. Yes. Crazy.
Adam Curry: That's nuts.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, that
giggles gotta go as a Kamla
Harris kind of affectation.
Yeah, I
Adam Curry: don't know what it
is, but it's a little much.
John C Dvorak: That's got to
stop. Alright, well, let's jump
topics to Campbell ARIS.
Adam Curry: Well, before we do
that, I would like you to know
The nation's airways are safe

country are safe I want you to

morning but you know there's a
couple of guys doing it now

Adam Curry: I think that's a
genius plan. And we support that

John C Dvorak: And if I would
hope that did pilots would
respond once in a while was in
the morning. Oh, believe
Adam Curry: me. There's some
southwest guys out there and

switch over you say in the
morning okay in the morning all

Adam Curry: Dynamite. So you
want to do another topic or do
you want to
John C Dvorak: go to camera I
got camera talking about? This
is the most disgusting thing.
You've heard this clip? Yeah, of
course. She's talking about
cultural ties. And she's gonna
describe she's talking to the
South Korean. She doesn't know
what she's doing. She's
completely incompetent. So she's
talking about cultural cultural
ties with South Korea. Here's a
country that we've been allied
with since the 50s. And probably
before but after the Korean War,
for sure. And if you go to
Korea, you see it, because the
signage like on the highways,
you know that the interstate
signs that you see here, same
shape, as you see there with a
little funny looking sign for
the interstate 80 and the
interstate five and all the rest
of them the same sign shapes are
there in the same us sign sheet
the site and everything is you
know, the it's just so similar
that you go to Seoul, Korea and
this America
Adam Curry: is this breaking
news Kamala Harris doesn't know
what she's doing. Breaking news,
not depressing. Breaking news,
breaking news.
Unknown: South Korea and the
United States as the Secretary
has mentioned also share strong
cultural and people to people
ties KPOP Dance they talk the
billboards in the United States.
John C Dvorak: Wait stop
somebody doesn't like a stop
Kpop chops, the billboards,
Adam Curry: the other
billboards.
John C Dvorak: They billboards
around the country with the K
Pop. What's she talking about?
Top. She says that she mean to
say topping the Billboard
charts.
Adam Curry: I think so. John
again. Breaking news. Our Vice
President is a moron.
Unknown: They taught the
billboards in the United States,
including BTS, who I had the
great pleasure of meeting and
inviting to my office in the
West Wing. Into the great
pleasure of my niece, I must
tell you I also think of the
Emmy award winning TV shows like
squid games, which I will
confess Duggan I binge watched
at home over a series of weeks
Adam Curry: women I love the
binge watch over a series of
weeks binge watching is in a
weekend.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, binge
watching you sit down and binge
watch, but she do I want you to
take it as an example of
cultural ties. The disgusting
the outrageously disgusting and
gross show squid games
Adam Curry: because of wine
award. Watch Our show it's all
about winning awards just like
Kpop top of the charts. The
billboards billboard I'm sorry,
top of the billboards. You know,
squid game is Emmy award winning
it's politics show business for
Ugly people.
Unknown: And I think of the
actress Yun Zhang who I met in
Seoul last year when I convened
groundbreaking South Korean
women
Adam Curry: she was
groundbreaking South Korean
woman
Unknown: she is the first Korean
to win an Academy Award for and
these are examples of
Adam Curry: I thought she won an
Emmy not an Academy Award. This
is this is wrong. She wouldn't I
don't think she said me and then
she said Academy Award she
didn't win an Academy Awards no
John C Dvorak: she's she's out
of control ranking knows
Unknown: she is the first Korean
to win an Academy Award for the
these are examples of the
cultural ties and the
intertwined history between our
nations.
Adam Curry: No she she knows
what she's saying cultural ties
culture to her is Academy
Awards. John Legend Christy
Teegan. Top of the billboards?
No Well, I'm going to top your
clip with Jake much now
industrial with our vice
president who, who was at a
reproductive rights, speech,
reproductive rights, she had
something very deep, she had
something deep to say
Unknown: it's very important. As
you heard, so many incredible
leaders stop
John C Dvorak: I'm being very
annoying by stopping these clips
that have one guy complaining
about this. They should now this
the other camera. This is the
one who's so stone that she gets
you her pacing her, her cadence
goes way low. If you notice
this, she has two different
cadences depending on which dope
she smoked. So
Adam Curry: there's two versions
of this there is a deep fake,
which is which is really
outrageously fake, even the
sinus fake Come on people. But
this is what this is what I
believe she really, really said.
It's
Unknown: very important, as you
have heard from so many
incredible leaders for us at
every moment in time and
certainly this one, to see the
moment in time in which we exist
and are present. And to be able
to contextualize it to
understand where we exist in the
history and in the moment as it
relates not only to the past but
the future
Adam Curry: it's a moment in
time the past the history of the
future today.
John C Dvorak: I think it's
because she's been listening to
too much Joe Biden
Adam Curry: No no she she's
Yeah, no
John C Dvorak: listen, here's
the clip apparently
Adam Curry: week she says week.
Oh,
John C Dvorak: Joe Biden This is
the Biden think about it clip
you have to play it
Unknown: I'm I'm being very
young, deadly earnest about
this. Imagine being a mom or a
dad. Look at the inner child you
know, that needs it isn't very
to live to live and not having
the money to pay for it. Not a
joke. Think about it. Think
about what you'd think about.
Adam Curry: Okay. Think about
what you think about. I've been
thinking about that. How about
you? Yeah, this, this is what's
so amazing. And yes, that again,
there's a spell that has been
cast over our nation and in a
yes, in fact over some of the
world that people believe that
these are great leaders. Because
people on television keep
telling them that the great
leaders and they're fantastic.
These are the bottom of the
barrel morons. And we're and
everyone's just kind of going
along with it's it. You know, we
are it's very much like COVID It
truly is. A slight COVID.
Everyone at a certain point,
everyone figured out this is
bullcrap. This is just bullcrap.
Yeah, a certain percentage, not
maybe 30%. All in and we'll talk
about that later,
John C Dvorak: optimist. No, I
Adam Curry: think it's I think
it's 30%. And there's a big
piece in the middle, who were
just like, Yeah, whatever, you
know, I really don't care. But
now you know, now you're
starting to see the harvest of
letting these these nut jobs run
everything. And of course, Susan
Rice resigned. Amidst all of the
things going on, we wish she'd
picked a bad day to resign or a
good day was on the same day
Tucker Carlson got fired. Don
Lemon got fired. So and she of
course, is resigning to run
Michelle Obama's campaign. And
when and I have more proof of
this, as Michelle Obama shows up
in Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain,
with Bruce Springsteen and the E
Street Band, she's onstage next
to Patti Scelsa, who is of
course the Yoko Ono of the
history band. And she's with a
tambourine. This is this is the
most insulting thing any
musician, let her up there, sing
along and play the tambourine.
And Bruce Springsteen all in on
it and little Steven all in on
it poses great ready for a house
party all in. Why? Why? Why in
Barcelona, Spain? Why? This is
profile stuff? This is profile.
Now.
John C Dvorak: Wasn't Obama
there? Obama who there's some
other celebrities there in
Barcelona?
Adam Curry: I don't know. But it
was Michelle Obama. Not not, you
know, not Brock. No, but
John C Dvorak: Brock was there.
So what?
Adam Curry: He wasn't on stage.
Why is the one you can
John C Dvorak: say all you want,
but there's pictures? Yeah,
great. He looks terrible. But
Adam Curry: who cares? Yeah.
Michelle was killing him slowly.
sure of it. Anyway, I'll do one
for your side of the house as
Michelle Obama. Now she's on
stage with the light we carry
with Oprah. That's not her high
profile thing. Now she's going
to Oprah is going to stop these
rumors. You know,
Unknown: every time there's a
discussion about politics and
who should run for president,
your name comes up.
Adam Curry: Listen to the listen
to the crowd. How can you not
want Michelle Obama to run with
a crowd that just loves her?
Oprah's like, come on, come on.
Come
Unknown: on. You know, every
time there's a discussion about
politics, and who should run for
president, your name comes up?
Why you bring it up?
Adam Curry: Well, because we
agreed to like, quote, unquote,
quash those rumors until you
know Joe dies.
Unknown: So why are you bringing
on now? What you're trying to do
Adam Curry: what you're trying
to do? Oh, bro,
Unknown: this is why I want you
to click. So I was at a Sunday
brunch. And some people were
talking about it. And they were
like, well, perhaps maybe she
would consider it. Do you think
she'll ever consider it? I say
guaranteed No. So can you tell
the people why you will never
even consider it running for
president. Now?
Adam Curry: What reason could
she give for never even
considering it?
John C Dvorak: Because she's got
no experience in government
whatsoever. And all she has the
only reason anyone even knows
who she is because she was the
wife of a former president.
Could that be it that she'd say
that? No,
Adam Curry: no, no, she's an
egotist.
Unknown: You know, first of all,
I was like, I've never expressed
any interest in politics ever,
ever. I mean, I greet to support
my husband. I you know, he
wanted to do it. And I he's been
was great at it. But at no point
have I ever like said I think I
want to run ever. So I'm just
wondering, does what I want have
anything to do? This who I
choose to be you know, have
anything to do with it?
Adam Curry: This is a very weird
answer. In my mind, why this is
very weird to die.
John C Dvorak: This answer is a
analog of the old Well, I don't
want to run but if I'm chosen
Unknown: ever, so I'm just
wondering, does what I want have
anything to do? This, who I
choose to be you know, have
anything to do with it? Politics
is hard and it's in the people
who get into it. It's just like
marriage, just like kids. You
got to want it. It's got to be
in your soul. Because it is so
important. It is not in my soul.
Adam Curry: Okay, all right.
That seems clear. She's not
going to run. It's not in her
soul. It's just like having a
family though. But I think if if
they demand they'd have to
demand her if they demand that
you Okay, she demanded. I got
Baroque. Baroque understands how
to do it. I'll be the president.
I'm telling you, it's uh, that
would be a pure way.
John C Dvorak: By the way you
kind of hit on the perfect
combination of people running
you just by accident. Michelle
and and the tour Bell Rock, not
ball rock.
Adam Curry: Michelle on the
rock, everybody Big Mike in the
rock. And with that, Mike
Reinhold show title. Big Rock.
We are horrible people. God
bless you, Joan Rivers for
telling the truth. And with
that, I'd like to thank you for
your currency in the morning to
you the man who put the sea in
CNN with Tucker ladies and
gentlemen say hello to my friend
on the other end Mr. John
John C Dvorak: Lennon morning to
you Mr. Adam Carolla in the
morning ships at sea boots on
the ground feeding the subs in
the water and all the names and
all the nights out therefore
they
Adam Curry: leave in the morning
to the trolls and the troll
robots. Before they start, bam,
baby 2513. Record.
John C Dvorak: No, it's not even
close to the record.
Adam Curry: And by the way, I
don't mind that people leave you
know, it's okay. This is where
we have all the interviews that
you never hear so you know it's
okay if you don't want to hear
the interviews that we're doing
the donation segment just ask
John C Dvorak: around ask around
so it's what is it 2513 Yeah,
Adam Curry: that's that's big
for our new timezone. I think
that's since we
John C Dvorak: changed pretty
much in the ballpark. Not
Adam Curry: here always
downplaying it. I'm proud of
y'all trolls, proud of the
trolls who are staying as what I
am.
John C Dvorak: Which reminds me
I should I should bring up this
note.
Adam Curry: Right not gonna read
the whole note, are you?
John C Dvorak: No, no, but I'm
going to read parts of the note.
Okay, so get this guy bead be
Jake Busey producer, Ben. He's
bitching and moaning about
everything we do. And then he
says the troll room login
doesn't work. And then he goes
on saying that you've been
condemning his wife on the show,
Adam Curry: even if he wouldn't
mention her name, or what I said
that would be helpful.
John C Dvorak: He doesn't help
that doesn't help. And then he
condemns me for sending private
messages in the troll room when
I don't even go to the troll
room as you know, and you can we
can prove, let alone sending
private messages. And so I made
this comment to him I bitched at
him he sent a note that just
came in this morning.
Adam Curry: Oh, oh, we
John C Dvorak: sent you a follow
up note. Yeah, you didn't get
it? I got who are right he says
oh, it was no agenda social.
Well, he's not talking about the
show he's not talking about the
troll room which he specifically
says troll room problems is the
Adam Curry: guy who said I'm
stupid because I don't know
anything I never look anything
up I don't research anything he
can't even get the difference
between no agenda social and the
troll room
John C Dvorak: that's what he
says it was no agenda social I
apologize for this serious
mistaken accusation and insult.
This is an outrage. I'm sorry,
upset you my wife was upset too.
But at this point, it's neither
here nor there. Oh, yeah. He
NAFTA? I don't know. It was like
three or four pages.
Adam Curry: It was 3000 words.
John C Dvorak: So I do think
though, that the most important
part of this message was missed.
The show was ungrateful toward
many of the people that donated
in the two for one. Why? When
was this? We were ungrateful for
the two for one, which was last
year, more than 50. You know,
show 1500 or whatever.
Adam Curry: Okay, look, I've
alright, I don't want to bore
everybody with this. And I don't
even know why you're bringing it
up. If the matter was closed, as
far as I'm concerned, he's
ageist he said, attaboy. Totally
Adam is 58 He's just fade away.
He doesn't know shit didn't know
anything about tech.
John C Dvorak: Well, now I had
to do it, bring it up because of
the following. He says I'm not
gonna try to prove this or that.
He says I did then the threatens
us is whether I respect you,
which is why I wrote it remains
to be seen. It remains to be
seen whether I still respect you
after today's show.
Adam Curry: After I sleep with
you again, I'll see I'll see if
I respect you. You know what,
I'm sorry. If your wife felt
disrespected, didn't mention her
name or what was said. I don't
understand why you have to speak
for her if there's a problem.
Happy to address it with her.
Not with you. I think that you
said something and she got
pissed at you to see No, no Oh,
you're him. And him. This
John C Dvorak: is what I always
have. Definitely. Like that type
of guy.
Adam Curry: We've had these
notes forever. And sometimes I
dig into them. You actually dug
into this one pretty deep. I
mean, I was like, Dude, what are
you doing? But usually, usually
when people are really, really
mad, and you address it with
them, because I always turn the
other cheek. You address?
Correct. What
John C Dvorak: is this? Go on.
So I'm sorry. I said that. Yeah,
that's okay. River ricing.
You're,
Adam Curry: I'm going to turn
the other cheek on you for that.
So when that happens, sweet
John C Dvorak: what?
Adam Curry: Usually, it's like,
you're right. My wife is mad at
me. I ran over the dog, you
know, is all kinds of stuff like
that. So it's okay. This is part
of the service we provide. We
really do. It's okay. We're also
we're here to help you during
COVID We're here to help you
during the Great trans Maoist
period, which I look forward to
discussing after this and to the
great interviews which we do
during this donation segment.
John C Dvorak: Okay, so Okay, so
we'll just be Jack to get BJ get
it we'll just get rid of him be
be jack off. Don't
Adam Curry: know, just know she
this is this is this is you
being petty. Don't do that. The
guy the guy, I'm sure the guy's
a donor and he felt, you know, I
John C Dvorak: couldn't see any
evidence of that. His wife is a
donor, whatever it is, she
probably is. It's okay. She's a
good woman,
Adam Curry: you know? Yes. I
agree. And I'm sorry for
whatever I said, I'm sorry. No,
no, I don't I don't wake up to
do this show. And think how can
I be mean to someone? I don't
think you well, you'd kind of do
it to me sometimes. But
otherwise you
John C Dvorak: I hit Well,
that's it. My wife I mean
Adam Curry: to me, yes. Do you
Yes. You say that Mimi. Yeah,
she
John C Dvorak: said that he said
stop being so mean to Adam. He's
sensitive.
Adam Curry: No, but now I'm the
sensitive guy. QR. Thanks, Mimi.
All right. So of course you can
you couldn't log into the troll
room blogging does work, go to
troll room.io. Or if you're
super smart, and you want to
ditch the legacy, podcasting
stuff, get a brand new app at
podcast apps.com. We have this
new live feature which is now on
for apps. We like pod verse.
We'd like podcast guru, podcast
addict and curio caster, these
are all apps that will do this.
It's where you get all your
podcasts anyway, now the live
stuff shows up and there's an
increasing amount of live shows
that are doing this. We've been
doing it for almost 16 years is
the wave of the future. It is
the it is one of the big
differences with with how we've
improved podcasting podcast
apps.com Or go to no agenda
social.com I'm going to do it
like a duck fart when we talk
about eggs. Okay.
John C Dvorak: Your egg book
yet?
Adam Curry: No, no. That can't
give a review yet. Okay, it'll
be coming. No agenda social.com.
The login does work as far as I
know. Although, interestingly,
you're the one that also was
bitching and moaning about the
password reset doesn't mean
John C Dvorak: that was five
years ago.
Adam Curry: No, that was a year
and a half ago. And it was just
because you were looking at the
wrong email address. It's okay.
I turn the other cheek on these
things. Yes, that's right. I'm
gonna keep saying it to you.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, it would be
fine. If it wasn't the other
butt cheek.
Adam Curry: No agenda social.com
You can follow me there. Adam no
agenda social.com or Jhansi.
Dvorak had no agenda. social.com
We had a best of clips of the
day show four during my
operation. Very grateful to our
executive producer Gustavo
Araya, who put that together.
Gustavo, if you haven't heard
already. Just look at that my
Twitter timeline or no agenda.
social.com people enjoyed this a
lot. Yeah, they did. People even
said, you know, I, I need to
donate. Because of this. It
reminds me how good this show
is. And that is really
appreciated when I hear those
things. Gustavo, thank you so
much. It was a dynamite episode.
I edited a couple things around
just to even our opening by the
way people thought was pretty
funny. I don't know why they
thought we always do wraparounds
for these. This was known that
is wraparounds. ISM wraparounds.
And people it was it was you
know, it was an outstanding
product, only to be topped off
with a cherry brought to us by
Sir Paul couture, which was the
artwork, which was dynamite. He
was like this beautiful no
agenda logo could have been a
challenge coin type thing. Media
deconstruction no agenda. Old
Fashioned media deconstruction
says it right there were old
fashioned media deconstruction.
Some of it felt good. I'm not
sure why.
John C Dvorak: Gotta be old
fashioned. Yeah, the old fashion
media.
Adam Curry: But it doesn't
matter since 2007. We're like
vintage were small batch.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, definitely
small batch. Artisan, artisan,
very
Adam Curry: artisan. Thank you,
Sir Paul couture, we appreciate
that. So I don't know if we can
really do a deconstruction of
the art because, you know, there
wasn't, there was nothing to
compete on. We did pull a piece
for 1551, which actually used as
the as the Bat Signal today,
which is another beautiful
piece. So artists knocking it
out of the park. If you want to
participate in that go to no
agenda, art generator.com. You
can see what the artists are
doing in real time, you can view
it after the fact. And in fact,
in those modern podcast apps,
you can see in the chapters
which is which is new. You can
see this artwork cycling through
which Dred Scott does for us
every single shingle show, and
we shingle show, and we
appreciate it. Yeah, hey, how am
I doing though? How am I doing?
John C Dvorak: As far as I can
tell you there's no difference
at all, you know, and I'm still
the same to me. I don't know.
I'm still sweating, visually
have my sinuses checked.
Adam Curry: I'm telling you,
man, the scan it'll cost you
about 200 bucks. And you stand
in this thing and if it does, it
swirls around your head. And now
it's cool and periodontist? It's
a CT scan and the periodontist
can take a look say oh look,
look at this. You got Do you
have if you have low level
infection right by your sinuses,
your life could be changed. You
think you have allergies? Nah,
that's what I thought gone gone.
Gone. I was dripping all day
long.
John C Dvorak: Horrible. That's
yeah, but what about from your
sinus? There you see I mean, the
your meat
Adam Curry: and Mimi is so
right. Value for value was the
model we chose as you heard
earlier, that's because if we
had to use make use of
advertising, which is equal to
censorship, the show would suck.
So we don't want The show to
suck. We're old fashioned media
deconstruction. And so by not
sucking means that we, we live
by a different model we live not
just by your boots on the ground
reports, but by your support of
the show and anything. Anything
helps. It could be. A by the
way, I want to thank Tim how
Audrianna who's been doing the
no agenda Web? No agenda show
dotnet. Website. Have you looked
at this website recently?
John C Dvorak: Yeah, it is. Very
good. Yeah. It's so kick
Adam Curry: ass and he has a lot
of he's using a lot of the
podcasting 2.0 features in
there. Really appreciate
John C Dvorak: look at it every
time I post because I take my
post from his fernet site when I
Adam Curry: post right. Yeah,
and and what's best about this
website is you can either you
know, I have to do anything, it
updates automatically. I don't
have to, all I have to do is
just follow the rules, publish
the RSS feed, it updates. People
use it, you there's chapters in
there, you can add your own
chapters, you can do what you
share clips from it. It's
phenomenal. It's unbelievable.
And he has, by the way, offered
to do the new donation page in
case you're interested.
John C Dvorak: I'll talk to you
I've got some ideas. He would
love failed pages I developed
Adam Curry: now I have a theory.
I have a theory. Yeah, I have a
theory that that you actually do
not have the login anymore to
divorce.org. And that's and
that's why you're you're
waffling on during this page.
No,
John C Dvorak: I Come on. Okay,
well, there's actually there's,
there's a modicum of. But no, I
still have to log in. But I have
to do everything. I do
everything to that site using
FTP.
Adam Curry: Yeah. And you won't
you don't have an FTP client
anymore. I
John C Dvorak: had my FTP client
with all the login information
and everything on it was on the
old password anymore. I know I
do have the password, but I
don't have any more as the
client and I gotta go get
another client and I got to hook
it up. And then I got to the I
got to suck the password out of
some other system.
Adam Curry: I told Tina I said
there's so he has a
Unknown: roadblock. It's just as
roadblock.org/we can't
Adam Curry: change that we have
to you have to be able to put a
forward on your roadblock here.
divorce.org/na As long as you
can play renewable.
John C Dvorak: I've actually set
up a whole computer system in
another room to do that.
Adam Curry: You have what you're
contaminating another room in
the house now with this bullcrap
John C Dvorak: would be
bullcrap. Studio.
Adam Curry: pile is the studio.
Anyway, we'd like to thank a
whole bunch of people. Of course
these are donations for to say
this is what I'm talking about
stuff. This just falls over
randomly, randomly. Crazy. This
is for people who donated during
the best of show that to keep us
going which is highly
appreciated that I mean, it's is
unbelievable how cool that is
when we have to take a show on
not because we wanted to show
off because we had to take the
show up. I literally was not
able to talk on Thursday. And
people say you know what I'm
doing
John C Dvorak: when Could you
start talking again? Because he
I sent a note to you on Thursday
or Friday asking how you were
Friday. You send it to me
Friday, Friday that you could
talk
Adam Curry: Yes, Friday, I could
talk Thursday. It was painful.
John, I'm on. I'm on boxing. I'm
on the proxy and dude.
John C Dvorak: It's like water
off a duck's back. So, so you
could talk on Friday, so two
days a healing and you could
talk again,
Adam Curry: no, three days to
three days. And then the problem
I can talk like something like
this. They shine a light. Jason
Calacanis, Jason Calacanis. In
the chat room you're correct and
approximate is actually equal to
ibuprofen. It's not even like
Tylenol, but it's no drugs for
me, man. No drugs, by the way.
So Mitch Maverick. He was like,
Oh, I'm gonna do something new
this time. And whenever you're
periodontal, like hearing I'll
try something new. Because the
last time he gave me like some,
like Valium, or what's the other
thing that housewives eat comes
in a brick fentanyl. No, no, no,
that's the stuff he puts me out
with. What is a dog with a T
Come on? Prozac No, no, no, the
billiard
John C Dvorak: you got your
troll room there there should be
providing this information.
Adam Curry: sanics Xanax, Xanax.
So it was a generic version of
Xanax and I had to take one the
night before, and then one in
the morning. And so you know, by
the time we're the anxiety, I
know. So he says namaste I got
something new. We're gonna do,
we're gonna do Halcyon, do food.
John C Dvorak: Halcyon? Yes. The
stuff that makes your neck break
Adam Curry: that I told him this
was what Bon Jovi's doctor gave
me on the way back from Moscow
and I was loopy for two weeks.
He said, Oh, I'll go I'm gonna
give you that dosage. This guy.
He's funny. He's my friend now.
We're okay. And why he has a
plane so it's extra friendly.
John C Dvorak: We fly and go
bombing around town. Oh, yeah.
Adam Curry: Anyway, so it gives
me 500 milligrams of healthy on.
It took me it took me like a
full day and a half to really
come out of everything. I was
like, including the fentanyl.
John C Dvorak: Anyway, oh my
god, you sound just absolutely
the same if we didn't do this
segment. No would know.
Adam Curry: Yeah, but I need
some sympathy. We kick it off.
Why? Why not? Tina's tired of
being sympathetic.
John C Dvorak: Oh, you poor
baby.
Adam Curry: That's what good but
I can't believe you came back to
work. You're so great.
John C Dvorak: It's

the Netherlands. I recognize his
name on the website. Aarhus. Oh,
when they wrote about his
interview with me Schuchat oh
this is the interview that gets
out to the station the radio
station burned down gold burned
to the ground. Thanks to you. I
was intrigued in the comments
section somebody pointed out the
no agenda show and I was
intrigued again in the beginning
a little bit weird with a lot of
unfamiliar memes and traditions
but soon enough I got used to
the format now this is actually
a nice note. It isn't.
Unknown: De deuced
Adam Curry: I found a lot of
valuable information brought
with a great sense of humor
loved it you know you got hooked
when you are in a conversation
and you start your sentence with
at the no agenda show they say
even say it on the air traffic
control. I've hit some people in
the mouth and some took the
bait. If they don't then give up
it's very hard if people don't
take it. I get woozy for a
second. Well
Unknown: I agree with that.
Adam Curry: I have the feeling
that in the Netherlands we are
guinea pigs for the World
Economic Forum psychopaths at
the top you know what you are
you are ground zero of the taste
and texture fake meat what a
bowl of crap corrupt to the bone
and some politicians too dumb to
see it. Yeah. Trying to forbid
broadcasters on national
television because they give
another viewpoint Yeah, some guy
some guy got kicked out of the
not just tell her the
government. I love your show. I
hope I can enjoy it for a few
more years. Hang in there. John.

Welcome to get mo nation.
John C Dvorak: So I'm watching a
show I'm going to recommend
Adam Curry: This is why people
listen to the donation segment.
John C Dvorak: Yes, exactly.
It's called it's on NHK it's
used in the mornings in the
weekends for sure as called
somewhere Street and is probably
the best travelogue show I've
ever seen by anybody somewhere
Street. I've not heard it
somewhere Street. Okay, and so
it's about somebody roaming
around with a camera and then a
mana. It's like a man on the
street. You know, they're,
they've set an hour of roaming
around some town. And the last
one I saw was in China, some
weird little town in China and
they're roaming around bumping
into people going into shops,
and they're doing all this stuff
that you would do if you were
actually a tourist instead of
just a tour guy. Right? Right.
And they had then he runs into
this woman flying a kite in this
big in this town. This better
story big kite fliers now, and
she and it's a Chinese woman
with a with a cute little kid
who is half Dutch and then the
woman is Dutch. She lives in
Holland. Oh, okay. The story
shows. Oh, you're married to a
Dutch man. Oh, yeah. I come here
to visit my parents. And she
said Would you ever move back?
She Oh, yeah, I'm gonna want to
move back one of these days
because it's too slow in Europe.
Choose to slow my thoughts on
where which game megalomaniac in
Concord, North Carolina, is
another yet another switcheroo
for Kelly Shermer
Adam Curry: switcheroo train
today for a birthday
John C Dvorak: on Tuesday. I
recently she writes I recently
got to witness her punching
someone in the mouth. Then she
mentioned the show. If we could
please hear a listen to that
horn. It would be appreciated.
Happy birthday dear friend game.
Megan lo maniac Oh my god.
Okay, there you have it.
Adam Curry: Then we have Dave
Dave's not here. Dave's in the
donation. In Tucson Arizona.
233. Hey, John. Adam. First I
need to do Do
Unknown: you spend deed deuced
Adam Curry: thank you for
producing the best podcast in
the universe. Well, the
producers produce it y'all
produce it. We just do it. I've
been a listener for the past few
years. I have no recollection of
how I found the show. Stoner.
Hey, man. I found it just
dropped in my lap. At first I
thought it was okay. However,
the jingles grew on me. As well
as hearing both of you recount
bizarre tales and observations
whether they are from the dirty
Streets of San Fran are the
Dusty Trails of the hill
country, as well as the
occasional bickering. I am
donating today because this show
has saved me from bickering. I
don't know what what are you
talking about? We never bicker.
It's not true. Although, anyway,
I am donating today because this
show has saved me from going
crazy by demonstrating that I
wasn't the only one questioning
the plan demic and totally safe
and effective jabs. Or that I
wasn't the only person amused at
anti Trump errs, vowing not to
get the jab. But then as soon as
the big Goldie was out of the
office, they were racing and
cutting in line to get Fauci his
special concoction injected
straight into their arms. Now
this reminds me so yes, and this
is a long running subject of our
newsletter, which John does.
John C Dvorak: I gotta I gotta
know for some of the other day
because I've been recent
newsletter hypocrite of the week
has been COVID Throw back to the
people. I won't get that shot. I
won't get any Trump shot and
then as soon as he's gone, Oh,
you gotta get the shot. It
should be mandated. So I've been
doing those like consistently
and I still got a few left. So I
got a note from someone. It says
getting old, you should give up
on HIPAA credit and so I figured
this is some poor bastard got
like eight shots.
Adam Curry: Which we were not
laughing about you doing that
but yeah, so I'm gonna play the
two clips here. Since we're
talking about it. It's
appropriate. One of our
producers put this little
package together two clips. Dr.
Drew who doesn't know him. Dr.
Drew everyone knows Dr. Drew TV
Dr. Podcast doctor used to do
the Dr. Drew Adam Krystal does
the Dr. Drew Adam Carolla show
used to love line, Dr. Drew very
we'd like Dr. Drew. He's a good
doctor. Dr. Drew, here's Dr.
Drew from 2020.
Unknown: Somebody's asking about
Dr. Fauci and again, just listen
to Dr. Fauci listen to Dr. Berg.
Do what they tell you. They've
been saying that from the
beginning. They are the ones who
know what they're doing with
this. And they will keep you
safe. They do don't do more.
Don't do less than they say and
you will be fine.
Adam Curry: Now Dr. Drew from
2023 But I just want
Unknown: to say that I'm having
the strangest emotional reaction
to this material because on one
hand I am mortified Mitch
disgusted with what we've been
through and what we're learning
was happening and how and fine
I'm okay with these people
saying we didn't know then why
the certitude why that why why
the destruction of anybody who
had alternative opinions? Why
get out there and say
categorically This is so what do
you not understand how media
works do not understand the
impact of your work if this is
bullshit, this is bullshit. This
is incredible. We have to hold
these people accountable the RF
case it's an incredible
yesterday he said it as somebody
asked him what would you do as
president if you were to bring
bring this country together? You
know, he said, get them to stop
lying to us. Stop lying. Stop
lying and we'll kind of come
together on our own. It would
make a huge difference. And by
the way, explain yourself and
apologize. I'll accept it, but
stop lying. Alright, we're gonna
take a little break. Be right
back.
John C Dvorak: Wow, right in the
middle of the donation segment
clip up.
Adam Curry: Oh, no, no, totally
unexpected. I wasn't even ready
for that. Thank you. Whoa, whoa,
that was hoping a wing and a
prayer. Did we know that this
was gonna gonna succeed? Did
John C Dvorak: he apologize like
he suggested others do? Oh, I
Adam Curry: don't think so.
Yeah, I don't think so. So we
continue. A few years ago, I hit
my brother in the mouth and
after helping my mother in the
mouse, sorry. And after helping
her back up and stopping some of
the bleeding, dude, I told her
about the show and she loves you
guys. Congrats to Adam for
getting baptized and John from
maintaining constant vigilance
over the number of cars on the
Zephyr containing men. fistic
nuts. So that's what you get for
being for being what were you a
like a lapsed, lapsed Catholic?
That's what you get apps lapsed,
you get 15 nuts. Kudos. Wanna
Thank you. Well, thank you guys
for your courage with regards to
me. With regards to the Marxist
trans cults sweeping across
America and harming the youth,
yes. In fact, youth, youth. And
once we're done with this
donation segment, which is
coming up, we do need to talk
about this because this to me is
analogous to the COVID
situation. Parents particularly
are confused. They are worried
they don't know what's going on.
They have no idea they're
turning to us for help, which is
a weird when you think about it.
But maybe because we were right
with COVID. And I think now that
people recognize that this, we
call it the trans mouse
movement. But there's a lot
going on. And we also have a lot
of parents every day, there's a
parent telling me what's going
on for some professional so
we'll get to that in a moment.
So yes, you're welcome. If you
guys had any corporate
sponsorship, you would have been
canceled and forced to go on a
humiliating televised struggle
session. I don't think that
would have given us that
John C Dvorak: we would have
been canceled in the third or
fourth year. Oh, yeah. We would
have been canceled during we
have about three cans life Lou
talked about this. We have at
least three cancelable moments
swine flu every single show or
you've been fired.
Adam Curry: Oh, all right. But
back in the day, it would have
been swine flu. was a good one.
Zika Zika.
John C Dvorak: ridiculing jingle
Yes, we
Adam Curry: did make small heads
are coming. This entire thing is
being sponsored and funded by
big pharma because a massive
payday for them. expensive
surgeries, hormone treatments
for life free money from
insurance companies, et cetera.
Yes, true. Anyway, I'd like some
karma from you and my wife on
Wednesday, the 26th. I'm taking
important test to become a
broker. And my wife is applying
for law school to get her JD.
Wow. A process that is made even
more difficult that she is
currently out of the country.
Well, that's interesting. I
would also like to request extra
special goat karma again from my
wife as we are in the middle of
bringing her to America. But the
immigration process is currently
extremely slow. Dude, I'm so
sorry. You get a good lawyer.
You need a good lawyer and email
me because I have a good lawyer.
I don't know if he can help but
and by the way, thank you CDC
for renewing the vaccine
requirements for travelers
coming to the US until August
you Cox you farm a Cox Oh, that
you you're fully vaccinated if
you have one shot of the by
Vaillant, this is for fun. This
is for Pfizer, doing this for
Pfizer, you horrible people.
Come on Congress override this
crap. It's right. No, no, they
can do this. They can do this.
They tried they do now now that
didn't try Democrats
John C Dvorak: stopped it. In
senate in the Senate, really?
Well. Yeah. So of course, I
actually gotta take it back.
This Democrats and most of the
Republicans, yeah,
Adam Curry: because they're all
John C Dvorak: with Paulie as
the only guys stands out. He's
doing
Adam Curry: a great job, though.
I mean, it's performative, but
it's pretty funny. I didn't even
clip it is so performative. But
he's what Rand Paul? Oh, yeah,
he's great. He's doing great,
but it's all this all just,
John C Dvorak: of course, he's
grandstanding constantly.
Adam Curry: You know, he's, he's
desperately trying to get us to
clip them. That's what he's
doing. I can't wait
John C Dvorak: for the next
show. Oh, okay. Well, here's
Adam Curry: the goat karma for
your wife, brother. You've got
karma. And then we might as well
just add Kevin McAtee from
Littleton, Colorado with $200,
our final Associate Executive
Producer, no note from Kevin so
a coveted double up karma for
you. You've got
John C Dvorak: karma. Yeah, that
concludes our executive,
Associate Executive producers
for show 1551, which is a
palindrome which produced
nothing. Although we did have
some coming in, you want me to
read these off and get these out
of the way? No, no,
Adam Curry: no, no, no, no.
John C Dvorak: We're gonna do a
second segment. We're
Adam Curry: doing a course we're
doing a second segment. You're
raising money? No, no, but I
have a lot of meet up reports.
I've got nice things. You always
get what you don't think about
all I do.
John C Dvorak: I try not to
Adam Curry: thank you, executive
and Associate Executive
producers that you are forever
credits. Meaning they're with
you for life. All right. For
life like herpes for life. You
never get rid of them, but they
are recognized as a badge of
honor amongst your fellow Gitmo
nation. Citizens. You can use
them in professional cases, put
them on IMDb, they are
recognized as very official show
business credits, you can claim
yourself to be an executive or
Associate Executive Producer of
the no agenda Show episode
150 1551 the Palindrome can even
add that to your resume. And
unlike the phonies in Hollywood,
if anyone ever questions you, we
will be more than happy to vouch
for your producer ship. Thank
you very much for supporting.
And we'll be thanking more
producers. In the second
segment, if you'd like to become
a producer of the no agenda show
go here. for.org/and A and a
special karma for those who
forgot to call it
Unknown: you've got karma.
Adam Curry: And thank you for
producing 1555
Unknown: Our formula is this. We
go out for yet people in the
mouth
Adam Curry: bear with me, if you
mind jump I gotta do this trans
Maoism segment because I'm
telling you the amount of emails
I'm getting about this and the
type of email both from people
who are very worried about their
children, as well as people who
are in the field boots on the
ground is is really on the level
of COVID. So I think it's our
duty to help no one else is
really being honest about this.
And we don't have to be honest,
we just have to tell people what
the producers say they know it
they're out there in the field.
So let's start with a clip just
to get us into the mood. CBS
Unknown: breaking news.
Montana's governor signed a bill
tonight to ban gender affirming
medical care for young people.
Adam Curry: So this has to stop
I'm just gonna say it again.
gender affirming medical care is
word salad bullcrap. It's sex
change operation for minors.
That's what it is not gender
affirming medical care. That is
that is a what is the word?
John C Dvorak: A spell misnomer.
misnomer.
Adam Curry: It's a spell.
John C Dvorak: It's a bullshit.
Yes.
Adam Curry: Well, there's got to
be a word for something that a
euphemism it is a
John C Dvorak: euphemism? Yes,
the word a
Adam Curry: word but I think we
should add bullshit euphemism to
it because that's what it is.
It's not it's not gender
affirming medical care. That is
a psychological term to make you
feel bad about children not
getting and they now shortened
it to care. To care they need is
not the care they need. A
reminder this is a spell It's
been only been cast over the
United States right now. Sweden,
Norway, Denmark, France, UK are
all stopping the medical
transitioning. Look if you want
to be queer if you want to be
questioning non binary you want
to be Jack the waiter if you
want to be a robot, fine by me,
no one cares. But when it comes
to without parent parental
consent, doing medical stuff on
children your creepy Google
Unknown: breaking news.
Montana's governor signed a bill
tonight to ban gender affirming
medical care for young people
Adam Curry: disingenuous
euphemism Thank you troll room,
including surgeries
Unknown: and hormone treatments.
The state's battle over the bill
led to the removal of the
state's first openly transgender
lawmaker from the House floor.
More than a dozen states now
banned the treatment for minors.
Adam Curry: All right. So now
the way this is being positioned
is very important. By an AI even
got an email about this, saying,
you know, I like I like what
your guys what you guys are
doing, you know, I think you're
really covering the trans stuff
fairly but to be fair, you've
got to know that, you know, the
Republicans hate us the
Republicans what and this was a
non binary person I asked
specifically Are you trans? No,
I'm non binary, okay, whatever
you want to be. You it's now
positioned as anti trans
legislation or anti LGBTQ
legislation, which is completely
disingenuous, because ELLs and
G's don't want to transition.
They're happy with what they are
also fine,
John C Dvorak: by the way,
aren't technically sis gendered
Adam Curry: tickling? Yes. Yes.
Thank you. And, and we should
point out the whole concept of
CES is to make everyone a
category. No one could be quote
unquote, normal. Yeah, I said it
normal. Just you know, the norm.
What it used to be.
John C Dvorak: You know, if you
want if you want me to
intersperse some of these tick
tock clips I've got what's your
right eye? What exactly what
we're talking about here? Or
wait?
Adam Curry: No, I think when
when is appropriate, you call it
and then is when you need now,
do you need do you need one now?
Well, I'm old to talk, talk to
talk. Ready? We got to add that
in is very important, because
let me set you up. And I'll set
you up with the boots on the
ground report. Working here,
your psych ward nurse here
working in a psych ward and 2023
with teens and active military
boots on the ground, frontline
psych ward nurse here to give
you some insight into working
with active military patients
with psych disorders and
teenagers who are impatient with
psychological disorders. This is
the kind of stuff I'm talking
about boots on the ground. You
know, can I see this on CNN,
MSNBC, whatever we just played
CBS with children that we have
seen, I'd say about four out of
10 of our teen patients at any
given time of the year since
2021. Identify as the opposite
sex or non binary. This has
noticeably increased since 2020.
Back in 2006, to 220 20 at my
psych hospital, we had zero of
those patients zero. This
started during the lockdown.
When children were on screens,
the predators came out the end
and we had they were already on
drugs and the therapist the
rapist depends on how you read
the word the term, they started,
they started coming up with all
this groovy stuff that a spell
on them too, I guess. The
patients we house previous to
2020 just would say they were
gay or lesbian. 2019 We had one
of our first trans teens, by the
start of the pandemic and 2020
it became commonplace for these
LGBTQ teen patients. And just to
make it clear, we have had zero
actually fully transitioned teen
patients but plenty of quote,
pill pop and trans which means
they my understanding, they were
already on psychotropic drugs
for their anxiety or anything
else that we've convinced
ourselves in the schools have
convinced parents that all we
need some need some meds. And
now they're of course I guess
the pills will also be puberty
blockers and or hormones. As far
as active military patients that
identify as non binary they them
opposite sex and, and what's
not, it's about the same. Four
out of 10. They hold on to their
trauma as if it identifies them
sad to see because those people
will never get over their
trauma. It's likely that they
wouldn't know who they would be
if they actually got over their
trauma. And our doctors just
cater to their trauma because
it's what pays them. This is
from a nurse. This is just like
we had people saying who were
who were training, ventilator
operators, so we're killing
people. It's the wrong thing to
do. We heard that back in 2021
during our Vegas meetup also
when a patient claims to be
identified as trans or opposite
sex, non binary, etc. The teen
slash patient just has to say so
doesn't most don't even look
anything like their opposite sex
claim and the non binary binary
all they really do is look like
a non gender person. Weirdly.
These patients are not specific
to any race either. It's all
races across the board. One
thing I've learned from working
in a psych ward full time since
2006. Is this. The secret to not
ending up in a psych ward or low
in life is confidence. Listen up
parents. The one thing every
patient has in common that
enters our hospital is lack of
confidence whether they have a
psychological disorder like so
psychosis where they hear or see
things depression, addictions
may Yes, suicidal, whatever it
may be, the one thing they lack
is confidence. I asked all the
patients I talked to a question.
Are you a confident person? Or
would you consider yourself
confident? The answer so far has
always been no. I tell them that
to work on their confidence is
the fastest way to help them
feel better or get out of the
psychological situation they're
currently in.
John C Dvorak: Wow, I know
that's interesting. Yeah, cuz I
don't think that obviously that
plays to the two of us being
lacking confidence No, do a
podcast there you go. That's
maybe podcasting as a way to
achieve confidence
Adam Curry: solution made well
before we do a tic tac clip. So
now to Montana and the the, the
trans representative whose name
is the sounds like a bull crap
name to Zoe was her name here.
John C Dvorak: Zoe or zo?
Adam Curry: No, it's Zoe. Zoe,
why Zephyr? Can you believe it?
So always always effort always
make sure there's always effort.
As always effort is trams is
always effort is an m two F
trans and the reason why Zephyr
got censured and can still vote
and can still represent her her
base is because she told
everybody you know passing this
law you got blood on your hands,
which apparently is out of
decorum for the Montana Senate.
John C Dvorak: It would be for a
lot of Senate's Yes, of course.
excoriated fellow members of
your of your reg branch of
government
Adam Curry: so he or she is just
one minute. He she whatever you
want to be I don't care. With an
explanation of this statement.
Just
Unknown: nature has
systematically attacked that
community. We have seen bills
targeting our art forms, our
books, our history books, our
health care.
Adam Curry: Okay, so this is
this is just unbelievable.
targeting our our books, our
books,
John C Dvorak: by the way, a
little disingenuous euphemism
when they say, Oh, the
Republicans are banning books
and I hear this on mainstream
media all the time. They're not
banning they're banning
pornography. Borderline
pornography from children's
libraries is not the same as
banning books. It's
Adam Curry: and the culture drag
shows for children is not
culture. It's just not.
John C Dvorak: It's not it's not
I agree. It's not cultures are
not taking them to a museum.
Adam Curry: No. They even have
drag shows in museums these
days. And people Americans
aren't this only in America.
This I mean, yeah, you know, I
talked to Christina about this
maybe three quarters of a year
