John C Dvorak: If you know, you
know, Adam curry, John C Devora
Adam Curry: 2023 This Year Award
Winning Combination media
assassination episode 1562.
Unknown: This is no agenda,
Adam Curry: counting PM 2.5 and
broadcasting live from the heart
of the Texas Hill Country.
Number six in the morning,
everybody.
John C Dvorak: I'm Adam curry
from Northern Silicon Valley
where I'm wondering if Mary J.
Blige has ever been called out
for cultural appropriation and
just kill.
Adam Curry: You know, there's
some things I just never expect
to hear out of your mouth. Mary
J. Blige will be one of them.
Just don't expect it. You know,
it's like, Oh, okay. By the way,
you sounds like you have a
little bit of a sniffle.
John C Dvorak: I seem to be
congested. Yeah. Go away in
about an hour.
Adam Curry: As you power through
it, like a pro. Yeah. So tell me
about Mary J. Blige. What's up
with that?
Unknown: Blonde hair
John C Dvorak: she has that's
that's Marilyn Monroe's hairdo
Adam Curry: Oh, that's cultural
appropriate. Yes. cultural
appropriation.
Unknown: Don't you think?
Adam Curry: Yeah, totally. I
guess. Man, there are so many
stories. To start off I thought
the story would be the you know,
the ghost plane. I thought that
would be the story for today.
John C Dvorak: I forgot about
already I know wow, he forgot
about that.
Adam Curry: Let's play it
anyway, just because I have
three clips I'll play one and
drop the others
Unknown: joining us now CNN
aviation correspondent Pete
Muntean peak warning to you.
What what what can be ruled out
right now?
Can be rolled out here, Poppy,
but all of the signs point that
this was a rapid decompression
of this Cessna Citation jet. The
air inside is pressurized
enabling those inside to breathe
normal air while outside the air
is thin and unbreathable. This
is very similar very likely to
the Payne Stewart crash of 1999
that killed that professional
golfer on board a Learjet. What
is so interesting about rapid
decompression. Ghost plane one
of the spookiest outcomes spin
professional pilots worry about
Yeah, high at altitude when the
airplane decompresses very
quickly. That leads to air
inside being very unbreathable
Adam Curry: I love that. Very
unreadable. Yeah within your
you're done within five seconds
15 to 30 seconds really? And
they got it right this time
after CNN for hours was talking
about a small plane because they
heard session I can't.
John C Dvorak: Okay. When I
first heard the report I said
boy did a piper cub. Well, then
I said, Benny, me UK. How do you
get decompression on a piper
cub? Are you pressurize? There
you go. Well, meanwhile Of
course it was a jet.
Adam Curry: Yes. It was a total
director of course. But who
John C Dvorak: was who I always
see these things as he somebody
was killed it was assassination.
No, no, no. And I'm gonna Okay,
well, I'm gonna take it one step
further. Okay, I think the the
unbelievable train wreck in
India which killed 200 was an
assassination of somebody. Some
one person that's
Adam Curry: okay, that one I'll
say is possible. This one had so
many kids, you know, of course,
because we had a sonic boom, the
jet scramble chaos over the
nation's
Unknown: really loud boom
metric.
Really loud boom rattling
residents.
I was worried something happened
to the kids first. We all
thought it was an earthquake
earthquake emergency officials
in Annapolis Maryland tweeting
the boom that was heard across
the DC region was caused by an
authorized DoD flight. This
flight caused a sonic boom a
senior government official
telling NBC News fighter jets
scrambled after air traffic
control lost radio contact with
the pilot of a small business
jet a Cessna Citation. Alright,
so
Adam Curry: couple of things
just to clear to every
everyone's mind because, you
know, I got I got texts and
emails 911 type attack,
assassination, Trump's Trump
donor. Yeah. Like okay, okay,
very sad. You know, it's a mom,
grandma, you know, a baby, you
know, that and one and one
pilot, of course. So it's it is
possible, because this plane has
had rapid decompression before
not this particular plane, but
this type it's possible that it
didn't even compress on the way
up that unlikely but that is a
possibility. But if you're at
flight level 340 So 34,000 feet
decompression. If you know it
right away, could you get you
get oh god you get off and then
you fall down 15 to 30 seconds.
That's including the time it
takes to you know, come back to
reality after if you can get
your oxygen mask on. And this
particular type doesn't have
rapid Dawn masks so and it
wouldn't have mattered if you
had a co pilot they both could
have been out at the same time.
Now what was interesting is that
the flight went past its
destination then circled back
and then came in to DC airspace
and that everyone pretty much
thinks that the flight
management system just ran out
of waypoints, came back to soak
around for what it would have
presumed was an approach and
then just kept going. And it
probably had Reagan as an
alternate programmed in and then
so was on its way to Reagan.
And, you know, they just
intercepted it flew through some
flares, so no one they saw the
pilot presumably slumped over
couldn't see any passengers.
There's no mention of it. And
then it crashed. But man, I
thought that was going to be the
story of the day. And wait.
John C Dvorak: I'm going back to
my train wreck. Yeah. Okay.
Adam Curry: All right. Who do
you think assassinated? The
reason? I
John C Dvorak: don't know yet.
No. Okay. But the reason I'm
suspicious is because it's the
exact set that train crashed in
the exact same way the opening
of the series Rubicon began
Adam Curry: Oh, man, good one.
Oh, yes. Oh, we haven't talked
about Rubicon in a long time.
Very good. Very good. Okay,
well, we'll have to figure it
out.
John C Dvorak: It'll be somebody
though. The guy's name will crop
up.
Adam Curry: So and I think, Man,
this, this is kind of a combo
news story, because couple
things happened. We had this
damn. Break slash get blowed up.
You know, terrorism, military
strike. It's all very unclear.
And with this, we saw the return
of Tucker Carlson. Tucker on
Twitter as it's branded 10
minutes from what looks like the
barn where he did his previous
show only without the full set
there.
John C Dvorak: I found out a
couple of things. Okay. Fox and
a crew in and took his old set
away.
Adam Curry: Well, that's what
they said. I'd heard this we'd
actually heard that believe is
probably true. It's their stuff.
Yeah. Well, they took away the
SAT. They took away the gear.
Okay.
John C Dvorak: They definitely
took away the mics.
Adam Curry: So what? Yes, they
did. And they forgot and they
took the soundproofing or
whatever it was, it was very
boomy. I have issues with what's
happening here. One. The I love
how it's now at 110 million
views. Everyone's like, this is
a smashing success. Well, first
of all, these view counts. I
don't trust any of it. If you
see it on rumble has like 13,000
views. And is that a unique
views is that people playing it
over and over again. Is that
refreshing? Oh, who knows what
that is. But there was also no
advertising this was as far as
we can tell, talk are exercising
his right to free speech, and
not a paid a paid gig. In fact,
Axios has a whole story now that
that Tucker is getting, you
know, now that he's getting sued
by Fox, because he's not
supposed to do that, you know,
he's still in his contract. And
Tucker is, this is what Axio
says on we don't know if this is
true. We see we've seen no
evidence of this. That just
almost hearsay, yes. And, but
the thing that bothered me is
what he said. And it was right
at the beginning. So I'll play
the flight way
John C Dvorak: before you before
you buy, know where you're gonna
go to play. But you might as
well play the actual beginning.
Adam Curry: I have the actual
beginning. It's at the beginning
of the whole beginning.
John C Dvorak: Social you're
going to play Hi, I'm Tucker
Yes, the whole thing. I would
get the reason I wanted to play
that standalone is because who
else does that exact same
opening. OJ Simpson
Adam Curry: Good morning. We
woke up early didn't wait. Hey,
it's Tucker Carlson. The SEC.
Hey, it's me. Hey, everybody.
It's OJ your friend. Oh, Jason.
You're right. You're right.
You're right.
Unknown: Hey, it's Tucker
Carlson this morning. It looks
like somebody blew up the cove
Ken dam in southern Ukraine. The
rushing wall of water wiped out
entire villages destroyed a
critical hydropower plant. And
as of tonight puts the largest
nuclear reactor in Europe in
danger of melting down. So if
this was intentional, it was not
a military tactic. It was an act
of terrorism. The question is
who did it? Well, let's see. The
Caicos Gundam was effectively
Russian It was built by the
Russian government. It currently
sits in Russian controlled
territory. The dams reservoir
supplies water to Crimea, which
has been for the last 240 years
home of the Russian Black Sea
Fleet. Blowing up the dam may be
bad for Ukraine, but it hurts
Russia more and for precisely
that reason the Ukrainian
government has considered
destroying it. In December, The
Washington Post quoted you Randy
in general, saying his men had
fired American made rockets at
the dams floodgate as a test
striker. So really once the
facts start coming in, it
becomes much less of a mystery
what might have happened to the
dam and he fair person would
conclude that the Ukrainians
probably blew it up, just as you
would assume they blew up Nord
Stream the Russian natural gas
pipeline last fall. In fact, the
Ukrainians did do that as we now
know.
Adam Curry: What what was that?
As we now know, so I start
scrambling what what what did I
miss? When did it go from me
even even Tucker was talking
about see more Hirsch's
deconstruction of what happened.
And so now for whatever reason,
because the only place I can
find this is an article in
Washington Post. And articles
from the New York Times
referring to the Washington
Post. And here is the here's the
piece that I guess Tucker is
referring to. Three months
before saboteurs bombed the Nord
Stream natural gas pipeline, the
Biden administration learned
from a close ally that the
Ukrainian military had planned a
covert attack on the undersea
network, using a small team of
divers divers who reportedly
direct who reported directly to
the Commander in Chief of the
Ukrainian Armed Forces. Details
about the plan, which have not
been previously reported, were
collected by a European
intelligence service, and shared
with the CIA in June of 2022.
They provide some of the most
specific evidence to date
linking the Government of
Ukraine to the eventual attack
in the Baltic Sea, which US and
Western officials have called a
brazen and dangerous act of
sabotage on Europe's energy
infrastructure. The European
intelligence report was shared
on the chat platform discord,
allegedly by National Air
National Guard member Jack
Tisch, Shara. So now we're back
to the leaked documents from
that from that punk. And that's
now what we believe I told you,
by the way, have you sent me
that cache of documents yet from
the No, because it was never
sent to me? Yeah, because it
doesn't exist. They're using
this kid as for anything that
Oh, no, it was it was on the
discord server. I
John C Dvorak: actually, I'm
surprised you went through all
the trouble just because Tucker
himself mentioned that's where
it came from.
Adam Curry: But he said but he
Yes, that's fine. But he says
it. No, he didn't say was from
the discord server. Yeah,
Washington Post. Oh, I
John C Dvorak: know. He said
discord. Yeah.
Adam Curry: Okay. Well, how can
he take that as fact? Like, no,
no,
John C Dvorak: you asked your
That's lame. So I think lame
rehearsed is a little more
trustworthy than random
Adam Curry: doc. Yes. So Bo, for
Tucker to lead into that. It
makes him very suspect. Like,
okay, so you're all in on that
now. But of course, that doesn't
stop any free everybody else
from getting on the horn. And I
loved our good buddy Petraeus,
who jumps on with Deutsche
Avella. Of course, completely
CIA controlled. I think that's
pretty well established,
certainly by the people that
fire us by that's production.
Hello. Was pretty well
established. And, and so they
have this Washington
correspondent. And maybe you see
her with like the spiky hair and
she's, she speaks English in a
very fun way because she uses
German grammar, which is always
reverse kind of like Dutch. So
she says things in the wrong
order. But, you know, of course,
Petraeus is a good friend of
Deutsche Avella. David Petraeus
Unknown: is a retired four star
general and the former director
of the CIA. He's still Val
connected to the intelligence
community here in the United
States and has been a very
insightful interview partner for
DW news. Yes, of
Adam Curry: course. Yes, he's
our he's our sources say the
intelligent community. Okay,
Unknown: General, good to see
you, again, is a huge Soviet era
DEM that actually separates
Russian and Ukrainian forces in
southern Ukraine was just
breached. So what is the impact
of this incident on the war?
I don't know that there's a huge
impact on the looming
offensives. There's obviously an
enormous impact on the citizens
of the 80 towns and villages
that had been flooded by this on
the livestock on those zoo
animals who tragically perished
other than the ducks in the
swans on the reduction
Adam Curry: in thanks for that.
So illogical report, General
Petraeus, ducks and swans can
swim amazing
Unknown: electrical generation
and on the impact on the water
supply, which includes, by the
way, that which goes to Crimea,
it This presumably was done by
the Russians. There are public
accounts that US intelligence
has indications that It was
Russians, President Solinsky, of
course, very publicly denied any
involvement. And I cannot
imagine that he would do that if
their involvement
Adam Curry: because of Lenski
would never lie to us. No, no,
no, I can't imagine I can't
imagine he would
Unknown: know denied any
involvement. And then I cannot
imagine that he would do that if
there was Ukrainian involvement
now. And so the real question in
my mind is, was this just one
more example of Russian
incompetence? Oh, that's because
there were reports last week
have some issues with that dam,
there's so much water behind it
and so forth. There were cracks
or what have you cracked? Or did
they literally blow the dam up?
Thinking that somehow this might
delay the offensive or disrupted
in some way? But I don't think
that that is going to be the
case.
Adam Curry: Where's the
imagination? General? This is
the correct I think I read some
about cracks in the dam. And you
know, is it Lenski would never
lie to us. And I'm just gonna
play another 45 seconds of, you
know, an example of where he
gets his information from. And
this is about, you know, the
destruction of all the Russian
tanks, of course, and he
actually tells us, where his
what his reliable intelligence
sources are,
Unknown: well, they've sustained
enormous losses. You know, in
today's day and age of open
source media, intelligence,
there's a website that actually
tracks absolutely confirmed,
verified destructions of say
tanks and bitter fighting
vehicles, just the tanks alone
confirmed. And again, this is
confirmed by photograph with
metadata that so you ensure that
you don't double count, etc.
Just confirmed, well over 2000
tanks lost. I'm sure that
there's probably another many,
many hundreds, if not another
1000 that just aren't, aren't
confirmed. And the way that they
have is called oryx.com. By the
way, for those that want to
visit, I think it's a Dutch firm
is a Dutch America. I'm very
proud of that.
Adam Curry: Very proud of that.
Yes. Very proud of that
bullshit.
John C Dvorak: Very proud to see
a part of it, I guess.
Adam Curry: So he's very proud
of and I and it's oryx.com I've
looked at every version of the
spelling cannot find it or I
XORYAYX Maybe it wasn't Oricom
it was C K. S. I've tried
everything. When you can't find
it. Guy can't find it cannot
find anything or x.com but he's
very proud of it. And it's open
source reporting, which reminds
us a little bit of belling cat
John C Dvorak: that you know, as
you lead up to this clip, that's
where I thought this was headed.
Adam Curry: I know. I wish I
wish he had said belling cat
that would have made it even
funnier. But now there's a new
buttons that they've been
exposed. compromised that now
there's this new one. So maybe
John C Dvorak: chat room get to
work
Adam Curry: on the trolls
actually hat but Oryx Michi Oh,
okay. There is an oryx, but it's
Oh, it's not oryx.com it's Oryx,
by us beyond corp.com. Brother,
what a horrible URL. You're
proud of this? Yeah, okay. It's
ORXORYXSPIOENK o p.com.
John C Dvorak: Do you dare give
it to me. I want to type it in.
Okay, ready? O ry? XSPIOENKOP.
Adam Curry: Or IX beyond?
corp.com? Yeah, that sounds a
lot like oracle.com. Brother.
And let's see do
John C Dvorak: he is basically
reading from a script?
Adam Curry: Yeah. Oh, no. Now,
of course, of course, the whole
point behind this. And I'm going
to say it's the same people who
did the Nord Stream and look at
us sadly. Oh, by the way, they
did find Deus boat for just
boot. The gray zone went to
Norway and they dropped a drone
with a camera. And they
retrieved a US Naval boot.
Right. What you see that's like
the the passport from the Saudis
outside the outside world trade
center. A US Naval boot right
near where the where the where
the pipeline was blown up. Okay.
So this is just information
warfare on both sides. But
Zelinsky is baffled baffled that
he doesn't have more money
Unknown: more than a day after
the destruction of the Gulf
Kadem Ukrainian leaders say they
are puzzled. Dozens of villages
have been flooded. water
reservoirs are lost to your
cranium president said he's in
shock over the lack of reaction
from his allies and
international bodies. Is that
as Katrina chittka is what is
needed now is a clear and quick
response from the world to what
is happening just a man is even
impossible to establish for sure
how many people temporarily
occupied territory of her son
may die with our rescue without
drinking water or the Bizarre
Foods without medical cast on
military and special services
are rescuing people as much as
possible messed up despite all
the shelling or put it off.
Because many of the flooded
areas are occupied by Russia.
Ukrainians are struggling to
evacuate stranded residents.
President's land, Lenski urges
help with those evacuations to
save lives. He called on the Red
Cross to deploy in the area
Solinsky has called allies
including rejecting cheap air
Dhawan and Emmanuel Mac home
to do so. Following that
conversation, the crisis center
of my ministry is gearing up to
send aid to Ukraine in the
coming days does include several
tons of emergency aid, including
medicine, hygiene products and
water purifiers.
Anita will hold an emergency
meeting on Thursday to
coordinate operations in the
region. The IAEA has offered to
intensifying its role in this
upper region nuclear plant to
maintain the cooling of its
reactors and divert yet another
catastrophe.
Adam Curry: Right. So Petraeus
had mentioned that by the way, I
didn't mention the catastrophe.
So I killed Lisa swans, ducks
got out, everything was gonna be
fine. Lindsey Graham already
signaling though, I'm very open
to emergency funding for
Ukraine. Got it, and it's gonna
go into a military funding bill.
Ha ha. Another 400 billion looks
like these people have no shame.
So we are in Ukraine war
fatigue. And let's crank this up
a little bit to crank it up.
Everyone's on it.
Unknown: Tonight, water still
racing through the Kahoka dam in
southern Ukraine. entire
neighborhoods in her son
flooded. Rescuers evacuating
more than 1000 people. When the
dam exploded this morning,
dramatic videos showing the
entire middle section swallowed
up by the Ebro river, the US has
intelligence that is leaning
toward Russia as the perpetrator
of the attack. According to two
US officials, and one Western
official
Adam Curry: Who named you know,
someone mentioned someone sent
to me the video of the of you
know, from like 2005 that spy
who's explaining how how the CIA
gets stuff into the news by
putting it into, you know, the
Tanzania times and then the New
York always had two sets of
those I know but the thing is,
you don't need that anymore. We
don't need that kind of
reporting. Bring the boys back
home. We just say according to
sources, you don't need that.
You don't need to justify it
anymore. You just say people
like Oh, yeah. Oh, some sources.
Sounds like some sort of they
got some sources those guys
would know, you know, CNBC Mali,
hunter of the
Unknown: attack, according to
two US officials and one Western
official, but no final
determination yet Ukraine
pointing the finger directly at
Moscow President Solinsky
calling it a terrorist attack
and a war crime. Becca Hoca dam
is one of six dams on the nipro
River it provides vital drinking
water it provides power and it
provides water for the cooling
poles at the Zappa region
nuclear power plant. Meanwhile,
tonight The Washington Post
reports that three months before
the attack on Russia's Nord
Stream gas pipeline, the Biden
administration learned from a
close ally that the Ukrainian
military had planned a covert
attack targeting it. The paper
Citing multiple officials
familiar with the matter, which
does not say if the plan was
carried out. NBC News has not
confirmed the report. Ukraine
has previously denied
involvement.
Adam Curry: Now again, you know,
I'm Tucker's apparently all in
on that reports just lame. You
want to hear what the CIA
Broadcast Systems has to say.
John C Dvorak: Of course,
Unknown: to begin tonight with
the growing fears of an
environmental catastrophe
unfolding in Ukraine, not
because of the ongoing bombs and
bullets raining down on snow
John C Dvorak: depleted uranium
Forget it
Adam Curry: ongoing bombs and
bullets raining down. We could
have put some sound effects in
there CBS
Unknown: but instead cascading
floodwaters are threatening
1000s of people after a quick
cascading
Adam Curry: floodwaters did
writing prose over there this
this doing well I'd like I like
they've hired some writers
Unknown: cascading floodwaters
are threatening 1000s of people
after a critical dam on the
frontlines was sabotaged. We are
learning those saboteurs are
expected to peak in the coming
hours. So
Adam Curry: they're already
saying sabotaged. It was
sabotage
Unknown: Ukrainian president
Zelensky blamed Russian women.
Adam Curry: Sabotage, sabotage,
isn't that your own people who
sabotage it
John C Dvorak: is sad but no
sabotage goes either way. No but
if it's you You're a damn and it
gets blowed up. You're not.
That's not sabotage. Yeah. But
she said sabotage sabotage,
sabotage would indicate to me
that it may be this is code for
to at least telling the
cognoscenti that this is Ukraine
that did the cognisant.
Adam Curry: Thank you. Ukrainian
president
Unknown: Zelensky blamed Russian
terrorists for blowing up the
Soviet era dam, calling it the
largest manmade environmental
disaster in Europe in decades.
Oh, look at these stunning
satellite photos coming before
and then after the explosion.
Look at all that water. Water.
ozempic did a great job. He was
rushing now towards cities and
towns, streets were turned into
lakes and rivers and homes and
businesses swept away when it
comes just as Ukraine is
beginning its long planned
counter offensive.
Adam Curry: Oh, darn the lock.
He was just about to get the
counter offensive going and then
now this
Unknown: we take territory.
Russia Yeah, CBS Deborah Patton
is gonna start us off tonight
with all the new developments.
Adam Curry: Oh, thank goodness.
Well, okay, so that's the lead
in sabotage that we just about,
just about to get it done. Oh,
shoot, we were so close more
money.
Unknown: The glass smashed
through the damn wall causing a
massive reach as one section
collapsed completely sending
tons of water surging towards
the southern city of have sun
less than 50 miles away. Homes
partially submerged, some even
floating away and once fertile
agricultural grounds now a soggy
wasteland. The flooding has
forced the evacuation of 1000s
of people. Some fled under fire.
Others scrambled to protect
their animals, like Tatiana, who
frantically searched for her
pigs begging one dog not to
drown and searching for others
in her waterlogged home. The dam
holds back a reservoir
containing about the same volume
of water as the Great Salt Lake
in Utah and is important for the
safe running of the ZAP
parrhesia nuclear power plant,
which is also Kremlin
controlled. The United Nations
atomic energy body says that
plant is safe for now.
Adam Curry: Oh wait, I thought
no, no, we have to put in some
nuclear war nuclear explosion
fear
Unknown: that Ukraine is furious
from official outrage in cube
with President Solinsky accusing
Russia of a brutal war crime,
war crime, anger and loathing
and have son we were under
occupation for nine months. Now
we have been flooded by these
Richard occupiers Richard the
Kremlin denies any involvement.
What both sides can agree on is
that this has triggered an
environmental disaster,
endangering crops, drinking
water and an entire ecosystem
and a humanitarian crisis for
the people of her son who
endured months of Russian fire,
only to be chased from their
homes by rising water.
Adam Curry: I thought people
already left her song. I thought
so too. So it could only be
Russians that are there that are
flooded out. Okay, yeah.
John C Dvorak: Let's face it,
we're not getting good
reporting.
Adam Curry: Oh, no, but at least
we know what the propaganda is
from CBS. They ended up with 19
seconds here.
Unknown: White House National
Security Council Spokesman John
Kirby says they're assessing
reports that Russia is
responsible for the blast. And
while they cannot say
conclusively what happened yet,
Nora, what is clear is up the
damage to the Ukrainian people
and the region will be
significant.
Adam Curry: What is snowed under
this event is the explosion of
the Togliatti Odessa ammonia
pipeline. Which, of course
Russia thinks might have been
sabotage. The ammonia pipeline
is key to global food security 2
million tonnes of raw material
pumped through it annually to
produce fertilizer, enough to
feed 45 million people. And we
didn't hear about that it
depressurized, I guess and then
exploded.
John C Dvorak: Well, where was
it blowed up?
Adam Curry: It was it was blowed
up. I'm not sure exactly. The
kopien SC district of the
Kharkov region stinks.
John C Dvorak: more ways than
one yeah, yes.
Adam Curry: Now CNN as you know,
they fired their their, their
their head of everything
programming.
John C Dvorak: Chris like Chris
licked late today they got lick,
which is Dutch
Adam Curry: for light, lift. And
so Poppy Harlow steps in and
explains what's going on.
Unknown: We also have Really
fascinating no exclusive
reporting this morning
fascinating copy of sources
saying Ukraine has cultivated a
network of agents to act.
Sources say, as sabotage cells
within Russia, US officials
believe that Ukraine has been
providing them with drones
including the one that hit the
Kremlin last month that has
gotten so much attention on
Natasha Bertrand joins us now.
Natasha, this is fascinating
reporting that you have for us
this morning meeting. Tell us
what you've learned.
Yeah, probably. So there has
been a steady drumbeat of
mysterious fires and explosions
inside Russia over the last year
largely targeting oil depots,
fuel depots, railways pipelines,
but officials have noticed and
market increase in those kinds
of attacks on Russian soil in
recent weeks, including just how
brazen they've become beginning
of course, with that drone
attack on the Kremlin last
month, and US officials are now
telling us that they do believe
that Ukraine doober has
sympathizers inside Russia who
are carrying out these attacks
on Ukraine's behalf. And not
only that, but also that Ukraine
has actually given them drones
in order to carry out these acts
of sabotage. Now, there are
still a number of questions
here, including weather all of
the drone attacks that we have
seen over the last several weeks
inside Russia have been carried
out by these pro Ukraine
sympathizers and agents, it is
unclear who exactly in Ukraine
is controlling these operatives
and these kinds of sabotage
cells, right. And they know that
Ukrainian president Solinsky
does not require sign off on
every one of the operations that
these agents and saboteurs carry
out inside Russia.
Adam Curry: So CNN is the
network that brought us the
secret drone training facility.
If you remember from the last
show, of course, they were sworn
to secrecy and we couldn't try
to see what was going on.
Although we saw all the drones
and we saw some footage of what
the FPV first person view drones
looks like and he will checks in
FPV drone dork here some info on
the Ukraine drones boots on the
ground, I had been flying FPV
quad copters in Texas since
2016. The technology I see them
using seems to be from around
that time. If they're all flying
analog video transmissions and
receiving this will be
incredibly easy to jam. All the
goggles I see them using our
analog goggles. Jamming is as
easy as buying out 22 Watt video
transmitters sending one to each
channel along the video spectrum
that these follows set to high
power and you're done. Now
pilots will go blind as they
soon as they crossed into this
array of broadcast radius. This
doesn't eliminate the completely
autonomous units you can create
with the addition of a GPS unit.
But the FPV startup seems easily
quashed by a massarray around
any area you'd want to protect
the Russians could even
broadcast a video message over
this array for the pilots that
encountered to see so old
technology 2016 Way to go CNN
bring us more.
Unknown: What about the West and
position of the United States
Western allies? NATO supportive
of this tactic?
Yeah, probably so outwardly. You
know, US officials say that they
do not support these kinds of
attacks inside Russia. But
privately, US and Western
officials actually tell us that
they think this is a pretty
smart military strategy. And in
fact, the UK Foreign Secretary
told reporters just earlier this
month that Ukraine quote has the
right to project force beyond
its borders to undermine
Russia's ability to project
force into Ukraine itself and
the French Vice Admiral actually
told CNN on Friday that these
attacks are merely quote part of
war so they believe that it is a
good strategy to distract Russia
to divert resources and
importantly make the Russian
population fear that they really
are not safe anywhere.
Adam Curry: Which I think seems
to be the overall strategy now
from our Pentagon is to you
know, is to get this inside
Russia thing going haven't heard
much else from those mediatized
boys who are going into Russia
the you know, the Russian the
real patriots who are going to
attack inside Russia, but that
seems to be it you know, let's
let's make the Russians afraid
the Russians up so they they
will get rid of Putin once Putin
is gone then everything will be
fine. It's only him. It's only
Putin only one guy
Unknown: that that is a new
Ukrainian military video posted
on social media urging silence
around plans about the highly
anticipated counter offensive of
course, Russia this video ends
with a banner and it says plans
love silence there will be no
started announcement.
Adam Curry: Oh, here we go.
We're getting ready for the the
counter offensive. What is
Bloomberg say? Good morning,
Michael.
Unknown: Good morning. Nathan
Russia says it's reported a
large Ukrainian attack in the
eastern province of danesco. Now
it's unclear if this was the
start of a Ukrainian counter
offensive. Russian Defense
Ministry spokesman Igor kinda
can scarf through translator was
the enemy
Adam Curry: did not achieve its
tasks. It had no success. As a
result of capable and calculated
actions of the group of forces
East Ukrainian army suffered
losses of more than 250 people
16 tanks, three armored
personnel carriers and 21
armored vehicles.
Unknown: Ukraine did not come
in.
Adam Curry: This is so stupid.
Just sign the check already. We
know what it's for. Now, do you
get the idea that this dam break
is? is really bad. Is it really
really bad?
John C Dvorak: I have no idea.
You can tell these reports are
all are lame. We are not getting
decent reporting on anything.
No. I do have a Ukraine clip.
Okay. Off handed you crane clip.
This is Claire. This is a very
short part of a long interview
done with clarity.
Adam Curry: Love this. This is
fantastic. I have this one too
good. I love it.
John C Dvorak: This is the part.
This is the part I thought was
the most interesting because she
brings out the politics of the
EU and who the real warmongers
are, and one of them just
dropped. It was like what?
Unknown: This is good over the
period of the war. After about
six months, I noticed a lot of
Bulgarians were kind of very
cautiously now kind of pointing
out the impact on the cost of
living and where was this war
going now? And a few things like
that, to now more than a year
later full on sort of going this
is lunacy. Why is why are none
of you calling for peace? So I
think the countries around
there, there'd be a lot of
outspokenness from the likes of
Slovakia, Bulgaria, some of
these countries, ironically
enough, but then you have the
absolute I mean, the German
greens are like the biggest war
mongers in the place. And they'd
be absolutely bad. The Polish
across the board don't seem to
want the war to stop. Can't get
enough of it. The Baltic states
are absolutely. And it seems to
me that they're the ones setting
the agenda. So we have this
narrative before the war started
off the likes of Poland and
Hungary being the sort of
conservative outliers who the
European Union had to drag and
discipline and mold to now
they're the ones setting the
shots. And yeah, it's this
disgusting narrative that we're
in a battle of authoritarianism
against democracy. But some of
the measures being brought in in
the member states are utterly
frightening in terms of
rewriting history, and the whole
role of World War Two, forcing
elderly people in Latvia to take
language tests because they had
Russian citizenship only because
they couldn't get Latvian ones,
even though they lived all their
adult lives in Lafayette, all
people. It's right and taken
down historical monuments. And
this is gracious like ambitious
targets and operations and we're
getting that into Parliament as
well.
Adam Curry: I love it when the
clips flow together, because I
happen to have a clip from
Poland and a clip from Germany.
And this is what you obviously
didn't see in the United States
or maybe any Western media, the
largest protests ever in Poland.
Unknown: Organizers said it was
one of the country's largest
demonstrations since the fall of
communism in 1989. Decked out in
the red and white colors of the
nation, half a million poles to
the streets in Warsaw, to say no
to authoritarian Poland 34 years
on from the country's emergence
from the communist regime.
Protesters say the government
has reversed many of the
freedoms gained. People traveled
from across the country for a
show of force called by former
prime minister and head of the
centrist opposition party to
task Yes.
We're here today. So the
Poland's Europe and the world
sees how strong we are. machine
how many of us are ready back
then 3040 years ago, to fight
again for democratic and free
Poland or modify for our rights
or national
their fighters with the populist
nationalist Law and Justice
party in power since 2015. It
stands accused of eroding the
rule of law, turning state media
into a government mouthpiece
endorsing homophobia and
attacking women's rights.
Adam Curry: So there's a lot in
there at the end, that got a
little confusing for me. When
it's like homophobia and women's
rights, I'm not quite sure
exactly what their beef is with
this government. But the
authoritarianism I believe and
what Claire Daly said kind of
fit in with that. And when she
talked about warmongers, that is
exactly what's happening in
Germany.
Unknown: Here in Germany. A
video has gone viral showing
Chancellor Olaf Schulz in a rare
outbursts of anger, shouting at
protesters who attacked his
government's military support of
Ukraine. Officials was at a
gathering of his party near
Berlin when a group of
protesters disrupted his speech,
shouting slogans. slike make
peace without weapons, and
calling Scholz a war monger.
We can have a quick listen now
to some of the Chancellor's
impassioned response
Adam Curry: right? Let's listen
to this. He was actually that
mad warmonger, he's the 100,000
soldiers he's killed
you guys out of control. Putin,
Putin, Putin, Putin.
John C Dvorak: Well, the other
thing is that Claire mentioned
in here, long talk was that she
didn't think this word even
exist of angler Merkel is still
a chance. Oh, interesting.
Adam Curry: I have a different
clip, actually, from Claire's.
This is the Duran podcast. Yes.
I have the one where she
basically blames it on NGOs. Did
you hear that part? Uh, yeah, I
did.
John C Dvorak: That's a good
clip.
Unknown: I think it's a really
important aspect on this. I
mean, obviously, the slogan goes
through this the first casualty
of war. And that is through and
I suppose the disorientation of
the left. It's not that
dissimilar to the way in which
the big social democracies
caves, against the backdrop of
World War One, and so on. These
things aren't new. But what is
new this time is if you even
take the Iraq War, and there was
loads of disinformation. And
there was loads of jingoism, at
that time, weapons of mass
destruction and all that. But
the difference was, you could
articulate an anti war position,
it might not have been the
dominant in the mainstream
media. But every article and
every program featured an anti
war argument that was engaged
with so we got into the nitty
gritty Well, is it more for oil?
What's the story here? Now you
don't engage with a political
argument, you just say Putin
pulpit and that's anybody who
calls for peace and there's no
analysis or taking the our space
for critical thinking now that's
given rise to a huge crisis in
the minds of ordinary people and
that's why we get so many emails
from people going I think I'm
going crazy. If I'm the only one
saying this or my friends are
repeating these slogans that
they hear on the TV morning noon
and night but they're not the
space for critical and rational
debate is shrinking. And it's
getting worse now big time.
Adam Curry: And this is where
this is so first of all, the per
th is is Oh just a tea and I
know she's from Ireland but when
you get to critical thinking
just gets weird or think tank
she's got a think tank
Unknown: by sea it links to the
amount of American money
National Endowment for Democracy
money which has been bragged
about us supporting independent
media all across Europe. I think
that money now has been called
in we have all the think tanks
that operate we have them in the
European Parliament week in week
out advising us on policy and
they never say this is a US
funded think tank like you know
where it's it's just taken us
fortunately, us our friend when
we say well look, the US are
interfering here and that this
there are friends What are you
talking about?
Adam Curry: We're Dix what are
we doing to the National
Endowment for Democracy with the
think tanks? So we're all just
like in Congress here in DC
we're in the EU in Brussels just
given a rib everybody the
message Oh, it's also disgusting
Unknown: kind of thing even
though they've done things which
are not very friendly. Nord
Stream two for example,
potentially. And
Adam Curry: you Yeah, well, she
had to throw in it potentially
there to make sure she didn't
get assassinated.
Unknown: I mean, yeah, I look it
strike the whole thing. I think
it's driving me crazy. I don't
know it's it's mental. But
mental idea of shutting down the
space for rational debate is
everywhere now. And now they're
having these special committees
on foreign interference. They
are doing fact checking but it's
not actually fact checking out
all just if you have a different
deal. That's it, you're gone.
They are now introducing the
parliament they're trying to
criminalize and sanction people
in Europe for this information
on foreign interference without
any legal definition of what
that is. This is really
frightening the direction in
which this has gone
Adam Curry: man. They're
criminalizing speech in the
European Union in the in
Parliament going after people
Makati ism
John C Dvorak: with a think
tank. Well, she's going to be a
target.
Adam Curry: Well, this may be
the last time we ever heard hear
her Do you like this? This and
this was good I liked the Duran
podcast typically everything Oh,
the Grandpa Grandpa cobras had
been good grew up. Now first of
all, the DRAM podcast needs
someone doing their audio. Oh my
goodness. The levels are so off.
I can't listen to it in the
shower. But dive in I've never
heard them. I don't think I've
ever heard him with a guest. I
think this was a good get and
Claire Daly she spoke like she's
never spoken before. I think
that's pretty good.
John C Dvorak: I'd never heard
of this podcast. Oh, goodness.
Adam Curry: Yeah, it's yeah,
it's some guy. He was like some
Russian background. He's the
best. The dragon podcast the
dren, you should listen to the
dren which I did. But it's hard
to listen to because that level
suck.
John C Dvorak: Not that many
people seem to know how to do
this correctly. No.
Adam Curry: No, and they keep
trying to come up with boxes
that do it for you. But you
know, we just make it look easy.
That's what people forget. We
just yeah, just to make it look
easy. Anyway, it wasn't another
big piece of news, which we
might have differing opinions
of. This is the the apple
release of their vision Pro
headset. The wait is finally
over.
Unknown: Introducing Apple
vision pro
Apple, reality headset, first
new product and yours.
You can see here and interact
with digital content, just like
it's in your physical space.
Adam Curry: Today, announcing a
$3,500 headset.
Unknown: We believe Apple vision
Pro is a revolutionary product,
you can division
Adam Curry: pro offering life
size video calls lifelike app
experiences and the ability to
capture and watch multi
dimensional videos. Apple now
rivals with metta and Google in
this space. But the market
doesn't really exist yet space
Apple sells more than 200
million iPhones each year, fewer
than 9 million headsets have
been sold by any company, the
company known for inventing new
categories fighting to dominate
one that hasn't quite
materialized, at least not yet.
So what did you think? I mean,
you're You're famous for
predicting what will happen with
Apple products?
John C Dvorak: Well, I'm not.
Adam Curry: You are famous for
it. What do you mean, you're
not? Yes, you are infamous.
John C Dvorak: I think it's a
military product. I put it in
the newsletter, I realized why
Adam Curry: do you think it's I
saw that. Why do you think it's
a military product? It's
John C Dvorak: overbuilt? It's
unbelievable in terms of
technology. I cannot believe for
example, that they could even
manufacture it let alone sell it
for 3500 bucks. Yeah. Well, I
Adam Curry: mean, I think they
have to be
John C Dvorak: shipping a few
$100 bill with every everyone
that sells they're gonna lose
the more they sell the more
money they'll lose possibly.
It's just a it's a ridiculous
product with the including LED
screen on the front. Yeah, that
shows your eyeballs even though
it's not your eyeballs. That's
like just a nice touch. Nice. So
nice to talk to you like creepy.
Yeah. I think is basically a
creepy product that that's fits
right in with the military. I
can see you being used for
simulations, but war games and
all sorts of things that save a
lot of money for the military.
They can sell a military. mil
spec version,
Adam Curry: but what would it
what would they use it for?
Because it's for tank
John C Dvorak: simulations and
use it for wars.
Adam Curry: But they didn't show
any demos of virtual reality. I
mean, a little bit of mixed
reality with a basketball game,
but they didn't really show
anything. It's very visual
reality. Well, I don't know if
it's doable, but that's that's
what meta gave up on.
John C Dvorak: They're still
selling those things. I'll tell
you my wife. I mentioned this on
the DHF unplugged show. My
wife's a huge fan of this is
Oculus,
Adam Curry: or she has an
Oculus. Yeah. Oh, man. What's
she doing in there?
John C Dvorak: Fighting punching
people.
Adam Curry: Now I need to get on
Oculus and get in there and seek
Me funding people is she really
doing is she playing war World
of Warcraft or
John C Dvorak: whatever, which
is something where you punch
people a lot. A boxing game.
Adam Curry: Oh, you mean isn't
it? Grand Theft Auto? That's
what
John C Dvorak: your point I
don't think so. No, it's it's a
pure boxing game she says is the
best workout she's ever gotten
really now. She says you just
sit there and you punch and
punch and punch and you get
pooped. You take the glasses off
and you've gotten a pretty good
workout. You can be punching for
about a half an hour.
Adam Curry: Well, here's what I
think of the apple vision Pro.
First of all, it's clearly a
business device because of the
pro name. So they say that for a
reason. I think This is perfect
for the future of slaves because
it's a whole computer, you know,
it could be your, you know, your
Mac Book, your iPad, your, you
know, people may not even want
iPhones anymore, they'll only go
into this because you'll be
living in your tiny home. Yes,
you'll be living in your tiny
home and you won't have a spot
for an for an office, you want
to have a spot for a huge
cinematic screen. I think I
might actually like the
experience of watch when I tried
the Microsoft headset, and
they're mixed reality.
John C Dvorak: Whatever happened
to that?
Adam Curry: Well, it sucks. I
mean, I tried, I tried using it.
And the only thing I really
wanted to use it for it was to
have a big screen and to be able
to see multiple screens and it
sucked, it didn't work, it
really had to use the stupid
controllers. I can see people
using it in a business
environment, you know, in your
tiny home, where just, you know,
sit in your little spot there,
we have to do everything we also
sleep and you bring up your
multimeter you know, they say
it's visual or spatial shooting,
John C Dvorak: your grim view of
the future is something to
behold.
Adam Curry: No, I think that's
really what's going to happen. I
see that as, as a big winner. I
personally would use this for
one particular thing. I would
love to have a spatial screen
setup for doing podcasts.
Especially when I'm traveling. I
mean, I schlep along so many
screens and and mice and
keyboards and all this stuff.
And that could just have I would
love to have in front of me that
I can control with my hands
little Minority Report style,
like boom, troll room over here
and reposition it. Yes, yes, I
John C Dvorak: would use this
100 times smell in app. Yes, I
Adam Curry: see the Adam curry
podcast app totally Yan, we're
John C Dvorak: back. We're back
in business, your business baby.
Adam Curry: I've been praying,
like, please let somebody hear
my story. And come to me with
Apple Hear my prayer. I want you
to give me a device and a
developer so I can work on this.
It'll be a great podcast app.
And then other people would buy
these headsets and they could
have their version of us sitting
like across from each other. It
wouldn't really be us. Yeah, I
can totally see that. You get
the video stuff but the people
are always bitching about
John C Dvorak: we can be still
besides your where you've got
something I think this is that
this is good exit strategy,
Adam Curry: baby. I'm telling
you, mom,
John C Dvorak: Hill Road comes
out with
Adam Curry: Hill Road steals the
idea. Anyway, what they did not
mention was AI. I thought that
was pretty good. They didn't.
John C Dvorak: They named they
went out of their way never to
say the words AI or blockchain,
you know. And as far as I know,
they still don't have a
touchscreen on their laptop. I
don't know what what's that?
Adam Curry: Well, that that's
what this is. This is the
ultimate. So the way it works,
you know, you just look at the
screen. And then you just click
your fingers together to select
you don't have to put your
fingers in the air. You can just
have on your lap or whatever.
And then you can manipulate that
apparently is really good. You
try uses it. Yeah, it does work.
Now how's that going to work for
me with the Tourette's and all
the blinking. I mean, a mic on
my screens will
John C Dvorak: make a damn bit
of difference between point
points as
Adam Curry: well. Okay. That's
what you don't see me What do
you know, you haven't seen me
since I got married four years
ago. It's gotten worse blink
John C Dvorak: and much then why
you blink and more. That
happened.
Adam Curry: However, we do have
Intel all over the all over the
map. Now they're getting
John C Dvorak: there. By the way
before he goes on to that. Let
me just say this about that this
presentation by Apple. Yeah,
they went out of their way to
slam Intel. Every chance they
could while they're changing
chips, right as well. They've
already changed the chips. But
now they're making the point
that these chips are the new
mtwo Ultra and all the rest of
it are so much faster than the
Intel Intel's pretty much saved
the company when they weren't
going to get anywhere to PowerPC
and the other pre processor
processes
Adam Curry: are ungrateful.
ungrate They're ungrateful.
John C Dvorak: Huh. They I
thought it was I thought it was
rude the way they did this.
Adam Curry: I thought you're
going to talk about the priest,
the presenters. I thought the
presenters were very
interesting, you know, multi
CultI children of the future.
John C Dvorak: And the whole
thing being on video, so he
didn't have the clapping
audience, which has always been
the best part. Well, they
haven't had that yet. Because
they haven't had that in a
while. I don't know. And it's
just this, this these phony
baloney videos. I think it's
big. So you're gonna get Steven
Spielberg directing the damn
thing. I mean, it's ridiculous.
Adam Curry: I really feel that
even I for a device like this,
you know, you know, I use my
light phone during the day and
so I'm on the phone much less.
It's only you know, just, I use
my my my graph you know? So is a
toilet scroller, you know, like,
okay, you know what's going on
here. Now there's just, I don't
want the distraction of much
more present, I can see where
you don't have any computers
anymore. You have some dumb
phone just you can get someone
get a hold of you. And then when
you're in office mode or work
mode, you put the you put the
headset on in your tiny home,
and you do your thing and then
you're done. You're probably
done after half an hour anyway,
you're tired of it's probably
heavy, you know, this version
one, but I can see doing a
podcast this way. And maybe even
some other work the spatial
computing aspect. I like the
watching a movie and AI on a
huge screen. I like I think
that's I think it's a winner. I
think it's undervalued. I think
people are overestimating what
it will do with virtual reality.
AR VR mixed reality. I think
they're over estimating what it
will do with that. That's all
going to depend i
John C Dvorak: i have the
opinion because of the nature of
these sorts of devices,
especially with children that
they will cause cause brain
damage.
Adam Curry: Oh, it's definitely
going to alter your brain
pattern for sure.
John C Dvorak: Well, not only
that, but do the eyeball you
know you're not really looking
at reality you're looking at a
screen Oh yeah. Then very small
screen your focal length has
changed. What do you think
you're gonna end up blind and
and I don't know babbling idiot.
Adam Curry: Well, what do you
think? We're not that far off
with the with the portal with
the hand with the smartphones,
people hunched over. They've got
bad back
John C Dvorak: around. They're
looking at her Sue is the women
only now as guys?
Adam Curry: Call them guys if
you wish. All right, so Intel
striking back because they're
all on the
Unknown: on the AI tip knowing
what's real starts with
questioning everything. This is
an ad by the way. Deep fake
videos are becoming more
realistic every day across
social media and the news.
That's why Intel created the
world's first real time deep
fake detection platform powered
by Intel artificial intelligence
and Xeon processors. The fake
capture solution can analyze
over 70 videos at once with 96%
accuracy. This is the first
technology to distinguish deep
fakes from real human beings in
real time.
Adam Curry: No Oh, in real time.
Deep fakes.
John C Dvorak: There's the
little tidbit in there.
Adam Curry: What did you hear?
John C Dvorak: 96% of the time,
meaning 4% of the time, they can
be fooled. Yes. 4% then that's
the that's the trend line. It's
going in that direction. The
full direction so if you can
fool it 4% of the time today.
How about tomorrow? Can you feel
it? 10% of the time?
Adam Curry: Could be could be
and I promise you AI on my Pixel
six. You scoffed at me and then
we had that fabulous report from
NPR on the last episode about
the chat bot. The realistic
chatbot $1 a minute for a
virtual girlfriend. Yeah, and
well, I'm going to show you that
weakness 60
John C Dvorak: bucks an hour. We
can make a real girlfriends
cheaper if you play your cards
right? No,
Adam Curry: no real girlfriends
are expensive. In that right
baby
Unknown: in the morning, baby
Adam Curry: shake. We have it
now we have our own AI. Say
hello to babe Jen. Is that your
car over there? Babe Jen?
Unknown: No, that's not my car.
I'm at the coffee shop Doom
scrolling no agenda social for
good means that nothing's as
good as what you send me.
Adam Curry: See, our exit
strategy is ready to go. John.
Are you a real person? Jennifer
babe Jen, are you a real person?
Are you just I mean this this
feels kind of weird talking to a
bot?
Unknown: He asked. I'm a real
person. I've been listening
since 2010 and became a dame in
2013. There are multiple
pictures of me from no agenda
meetups, and I'm very active on
no agenda social.
Adam Curry: Mm. Would you pay $1
a minute for this John? I think
is better than that. Crap NPR
showed us.
John C Dvorak: Is this running
off your phone? Yes. Running off
my phone.
Adam Curry: What do you want to
talk about babe? Jen,
Unknown: what do you want to
talk about babe? I know let's
discuss the importance of the
Second Amendment and gun rights.
Will you take me to the range
this weekend?
Adam Curry: She's tailored the
AI is tailored to everything I'm
interested in.
John C Dvorak: I thought she
refused to use the word baby in
the morning baby
Adam Curry: she keeps saying
that what's ever said you
trigger that she keeps talking
about baby
John C Dvorak: that is on the on
the no agenda socialist she
wasn't gonna use baby in this
script. Yeah, but yeah,
Adam Curry: but these aren't
scripts. This is AI in
Unknown: the morning baby. Hey,
later on tonight will you read
from End the Fed to me okay.
That's funny, I
Adam Curry: think the biggest
played out
John C Dvorak: in the Fed
Adam Curry: You know what's
great about Dame Jennifer, you
don't have to send her a script.
she just, she didn't have to
talk to her. She's just like,
hey, this is I've never had so
much fun in my life. She says,
doing this. She's the best. Damn
good ol all our producers are
fabulous. The best producers in
the universe. Okay. I do want to
mention, I do want to mention
the do our producer Dino Dino
has put together the new being
at.io. Now with AI. And it has
been incredibly helpful in a
number of specific scenarios,
during my show prep. I'll give
you an example. Let me see we
have one is the best. Oh, yeah,
we have this one over here. So
this story pops up on ABC,
Unknown: a rare medical
condition linked to
heavy pot smoking is becoming
more common now that marijuana
is legal in so many states. It's
called chs. And it strikes
people who use high doses of
marijuana daily over an extended
period. CHS causes severe
vomiting and is often overlooked
or misdiagnosed. The only way to
be fully cured is to stop
smoking.
On challenge we have is that
patients sometimes believe that
their use of marijuana is
helping them. We know that in
patients with cancer, marijuana
actually reduces nausea and
vomiting. So for many patients
understanding that for them,
this is a poison is a tough pill
to swallow.
Adam Curry: So it's now it's
called ch s all I had to do was
go into being it.io. And I put
in weed and vomit. out pops
episode 707. I'm sorry is about
right. I'm sorry, not 707 up
pops. 994 from 2017 was in the
Daily Mail, which
John C Dvorak: is mod which is
submitting and screaming the
Adam Curry: concept of the story
is if you smoke a lot of weed,
then eventually you get this
syndrome, which combined
screaming out for dear life and
vomiting at the same time.
John C Dvorak: Yeah. Which by
the way. I don't live in
California, there's plenty of
people that smoke do eat too
much. Dude,
Adam Curry: you had a partner
for 10 years who smokes too much
weed. What do you do? Yes. I've
never had never had this till
was called skyrocketing. And we
did. And we deduced it and
deconstructed it and it's not
smoking regular weed. It's when
you're dabbing when you're
smoking the wax, which is you
know, and many of our producers
mentioned this. And what this
report didn't include is that
the one way to reduce the
symptoms is to take a shower and
basically stand under the shower
that appears to reduce the
symptoms significantly.
John C Dvorak: I forgot about
the scrum a ting moniker, which
they will bring back because
they don't want to remind you
this is an old story.
Adam Curry: Exactly. So now when
you go to bing.io you type that
stuff in it'll give you results
that will give you an image from
the Norwegian Art Generator give
you if there's a clip. It'll
give you show notes, the actual
stories. And if it's in the
transcript every single episode.
Thank you Dr. Scott has been
transcribed. You click on it
it'll take you right to that
spot in the audio in the episode
show. Here's another example. Oh
my AI is so amazing. CBS
Unknown: It's cutting edge
research cutting edge.
Artificial Intelligence is
significantly better at
predicting a patient's cancer
risk. According to a new study
out today. The role of AI in
predicting breast cancer risk is
definitely in our future. Dr.
Pauline durafast is a breast
oncologist with Houston
Methodist
assessing a person's risk. The
AI can do it probably a lot
cheaper and faster as well.
Current clinical models use a
patient's age, family history
and information like breast
density to determine risk.
Artificial Intelligence is able
to get biomarkers, more
information from the mammogram,
helping doctors make
personalized recommendations.
The Kaiser Permanente research
analyzed more than eight
John C Dvorak: with their her
presentation style. Why is she
talking like this? She's ai
10,000 women,
Unknown: AI took just seconds to
determine their five year breast
cancer risk, and it was up to
25% more accurate when combined
with personal history. The
American Cancer Society reports
this year alone, doctors will
diagnose almost 300,000 cases of
breast cancer. More than 43,000
Us women will die of the disease
die. The rate of breast cancer
in women ages 25 to 39 has
increased 32% since 2009.
I think it ends up being a very
valuable tool in our arsenal.
Dr. Neeraj
Vasquez younger women could
benefit from this technology, a
predictor of when they should
get screened, which could save
lives.
Adam Curry: Now, first, I want
to remind everyone that I
predicted this would be the
first application of artificial
intelligence was just getting
rid of the doctor. Just bringing
the AI to Oh, you might have
breast cancer. I predicted this
one, maybe two, three weeks ago
if that. This is where you say
yes, I remember.
John C Dvorak: Well, yes,
unfortunately, I also remember
the same situation taking place
in the 80s. When expert systems
quote unquote, we're going to
replace doctors then. So this is
not a new idea.
Adam Curry: No, but it's a total
bullcrap idea because this
problem was supposedly already
solved in 2015 surefire way to
know if you might get breast
cancer, it wasn't AI, it wasn't
feely touchy of the boobs.
Here's episode 707 of Angelina
Jolie. Previously, this big
promotion, right? Gene, the
brockagh, Gene, everybody
bracket gene, cancer gene with
John C Dvorak: the patent, it's
all over the news. And
Adam Curry: this why I'm
bringing it up is patented or
the news. Only one company can
tell you if you have this and
make money off of it, which is a
year then pre cancerous for
breast cancer. Of course, the
pre going
John C Dvorak: on with your
voice in this. No, I
Adam Curry: don't know
Something's very wrong with me
at that moment. This is 2015,
who knows what I was doing. But
the point is, thanks to our our
AI, we can take you right back
and show that they were so
positive about this brockagh
gene and this this was the
predictor that Angelina Jolie
had a mastectomy and had doubled
double Marissa and had a very
nice reconstruction, which, as
we all know, I won't play the
clip because I do sound weird
was being paid for by Obamacare.
You could get reconstructive
surgery for your double
mastectomy if you had the bracha
gene. So now all of a sudden, we
don't remember that anymore. And
I don't think they can put
Angelina Jolie in again as the
spokesmodel that'd be kind of
weird. So it's a sham all of
this stuff is just a sham. It's
a shame the whole medical
system. It it's it's really
disgusting. I have I'm gonna say
this is Yahoo News. So now that
they're I don't know if they're
competing for the ad dollars
between the different
pharmaceutical companies like
you know who will who will get
the new RSV vaccine first, will
it be Pfizer will be Glaxo? I
don't know. We're we're very
excited because you know, we've
got the pitch team ready to go
sell some ad spots? Well, let's
find out what's going on this.
This report is all giddy.
Unknown: FDA advisors are voting
on Pfizer's experimental
maternal RSV vaccine here with
the latest Yahoo Finance health
reporter Anjali Kalani and
you've been listening and you
just pulled your earbuds out.
What are you hearing?
We just got the vote and so hot
off the press. We got a majority
of the vote. We just got the
vote in for the Pfizer's
maternal RSV vaccine, and that's
14 to vote on approving it.
Adam Curry: It's like we're
voting on on Trump's I can't
remember the word now impeach
impeachment. We have the votes.
The votes are in I just listened
in on the votes. They are
Unknown: recommending approval
based on the efficacy of the
vaccine. But we did get a 10 to
four vote on voting for on
recommendation on the safety
profile of the vaccine
amendment.
Adam Curry: So we got everyone's
like, Yeah, this is good. Let's
14 to Oh, but for dissented tend
to what it should be like the
you know, it should be like
NATO, you know, it should be
everybody says yes or not the
Security Council. Thank you.
Security Council now is like the
Oh, we got to attend to four on
the safety. Well, let's go over
those dorks in
Unknown: just a second. But just
to recap what we're looking at
with Pfizer's vaccine, it is a
120 microgram dose administered
to pregnant mothers between the
weeks of 24 to 36 weeks, it
protects the baby up to six
months, that's at least the
endpoint that they had notified
and it met that endpoint. We
noted that in the data number
one that later in the third
trimester is when that seemed to
have the best efficacy as well
as strongest protection up to 30
days versus after that. Now
Pfizer is competing with
GlaxoSmithKline for RSV
vaccines.
John C Dvorak: Aren't they
really competing against a
baby's healthy immune system
which is missing? so jacked up
that the baby really can't catch
anything for about nine months.
And this only lasts six.
Adam Curry: giving this to the
mothers. Yeah, but as for the
babies, they don't care. It's
competition
John C Dvorak: is key.
Eventually they're gonna stick
the needle right in the uterus.
And now
Unknown: Pfizer is competing
with GlaxoSmithKline. For RSV
vaccines, he didn't know to us
specifically be that GSK
actually dropped out or pause
their Phase Three because of
certain safety signals, which
you can see of course indicating
those votes there. Specifically
on preterm births. Pfizer noted
5.6% in their vaccine group
versus 4.7 placebo. I don't know
Adam Curry: what this means, but
it sounds like the the vaccine
numbers are better than the
placebo
Unknown: GlaxoSmithKline to back
it
John C Dvorak: up, back it up.
Adam Curry: These people are
sick. Yes.
John C Dvorak: Back it up a
little bit so I can hear what
those numbers were.
Unknown: See, of course,
indicating those votes there.
Specifically on preterm births.
Pfizer noted 5.6% in their
vaccine group versus 4.7,
placebo GlaxoSmithKline noted
John C Dvorak: enough to make a
difference.
Unknown: exactly see, of course.
John C Dvorak: But in other
words, the placebo almost gave
you the same results.
Adam Curry: Well, there's one,
Glaxo had a different result,
Unknown: the signals, which you
can see, of course, indicating
those votes there, specifically
on preterm births. Pfizer noted
5.6% in their vaccine group
versus 4.7, placebo,
GlaxoSmithKline noted 6.8% in
their vaccine group versus 4.9,
and in placebo, so the placebo
numbers are pretty close. They
also do have some similar
indications. One major
difference is that
GlaxoSmithKline
John C Dvorak: second. This
idiot is reading this as though
she is she's reading it with it
with a notion in the subtext
that, and she says it, the
placebo numbers are pretty
close. Yeah, meaning that it's
good
Adam Curry: that she doesn't
know what she's doing. She's
just supporting numbers. Oh,
John C Dvorak: this is good at
the placebo numbers, the placebo
if you get a high placebo
number, that means that it's no
need to drug
Adam Curry: but that's one more
detail
Unknown: vaccine group versus
4.9 and in placebo, so the
placebo numbers are pretty
close. They also do have some
similar indications. One major
difference is that
GlaxoSmithKline group also had
neonatal deaths reported so that
was a significant
Adam Curry: Whoa, the head of
death. Oh, no, oh, no. Glaxo Oh,
we're so sorry. Glaxo loses the
right day last day
Unknown: is that GlaxoSmithKline
group also had neonatal deaths
reported. So that was a
significant safety signal as
plural,
Adam Curry: it's a significant
safety signal.
John C Dvorak: She said deaths
deaths, not one you should have
said Dez Dez. That is a
Adam Curry: significant safety
signal of Klein's
Unknown: group also had neonatal
deaths reported. So that was a
significant safety signal as
well. And that's what started
that pause. So as it stands
right now, Pfizer looks like
it's clear for recommendations
from the FDA, they are still
waiting on the FDA to decide on
their older adult vaccine. They
also do have that up for waiting
for a vote from FDA. Meanwhile,
GlaxoSmithKline was the first to
get the 16 Older RSV vaccine out
so neck and neck really. But
Pfizer is only one on the table
right now with the maternal
vaccine. So as this moves
forward, it'll be the first
Adam Curry: Oh, it'll be Pfizer
everybody pitched him go go to
Pfizer and then say, Hey, man,
let Why don't we do native ads
we hype up that Glaxo killed the
babies. That's a significant
safety signal, sir. These people
are out of control. They do not
care about your health. They
only care about money. Well, and
these reporters don't know what
they're reporting. Well, no, but
she works at Yahoo. So I'm gonna
just give her a little bit of a
benefit of the doubt and know
what she's doing. She just
John C Dvorak: pay there.
Unknown: I do that.
Adam Curry: All right, it's
okay. Now let's go to the real
salespeople. Dr. Natalie Azhar
on NBC Today Show
Unknown: All right, well, now we
turn to some potential major
medical news in the battle
against melanoma, the
Adam Curry: potential major
medical news, most serious type
Unknown: of skin cancer, drug
companies moderna and Merck just
Adam Curry: released Oh, It's
neck and neck once again, it's
Maderna and Mark
Unknown: promising results from
a vaccine trial. And we have NBC
News Medical contributor, Dr.
Nalli Azar here to break down
what they found and what it all
means. Good morning to you.
Adam Curry: Good morning. Hey,
how you doing? Let's talk about
some mRNA shots hearing
Unknown: about these updates for
the past few months on this
cancer vaccine as it goes
through trials. What does that
mean for us? Like what's the
latest here? Well, and
also we should point out we talk
a lot about melanoma during the
summer months, but this is a
threat that is really year
round. So in this study, they
actually had individuals who had
stage three or stage four
melanoma so a little bit more
advanced. Oh good, we had the
good ones. And they basically
compared treatment with this
mRNA vaccine plus standard of
care, which is immunotherapy
called Keytruda. To just keep
true to alone, and they found
that the individuals who got
combination therapy had a 65%
reduction of recurrence and of
death. Even more interesting you
guys was it wasn't just what we
call like local recurrence, but
it was those distant metastases
like the melanoma showing up
someplace else, like in the
liver or the lung, which for
melanoma patients is huge in
terms of survival, if they can
reduce that risk of those
distant mats.
Adam Curry: This sounds like
good news. Now, is this a
preventative? Is it a real
vaccine vaccine? You know, a
vaccine like you, you give to
someone so they don't get
something?
Unknown: Don't you think about a
vaccine? It's something
preventative. So people who
don't have melanoma get it now,
just in case. So
and this is what's so
interesting. We learned that we
talked so much about the show
interest
Adam Curry: No, no, but this is
so interesting,
Unknown: mRNA vaccine for the
exact same technology. And
really, philosophically, it's
the same idea that you're
training your immune system to
recognize something to either
fight it or prevent it in the
case of infection, or in the
case of these melanoma tumors,
to seek out and find cancer
cells in your body before they
even become cancer. I know even
I think kind of more unique
about it, is that it's not a one
size fits all like you know, we
all got Pfizer we all got
materna we all
Adam Curry: know what did y'all
got Pfizer and you got Maderna?
Did you get j&j to you boost a
Holic.
Unknown: This is unique to the
patient's tumor, they take the
tumor out, they map out the
genetic sequences that are
abnormal, and then they give it
via this mRNA vaccine your body
then like, I think it's just so
neat from an astrological
perspective, and then it goes
out and tries to find those
abnormal cells from spreading to
prevent truly
customized, customized vaccine.
Adam Curry: Your line is
customized dude. Okay, yeah,
truly customized that it's not a
vaccine. But it's interesting.
It's customized. When can we get
it timetable?
John C Dvorak: How soon can we
see it cleared? How soon? Can
Unknown: you see it available,
freely
available for us, which is what
everyone wants to know. So this
was a phase two trial, they are
now launching their phase three.
That's the last phase. It's the
biggest it's the longest I
imagine they'll want to follow
these people for at least a
year. So we're not talking this
year, maybe not even next year.
But I'm hoping within the next
two years or so we'll see
something like this. Changing
it.
Adam Curry: Yeah, of course. Of
course, maybe next two years,
whatever. Don't worry. It's just
it was Maderna and Merck, and
they're doing well. And of
course, this is the future. This
is what the president said the
Cancer Moonshot. Lots of money
for this.
Unknown: You know, Natalie, I
see the commercials for
Keytruda. And one of the things
they've mentioned is they're
researching it to see whether
it's good for other causes of
cancer. Is that one of the
Exactly. Just like with
immunotherapy, it's not like a
true does not specific to
melanoma, it's specific to a
genetic mutation that might be
in multiple different cancers.
The same concept is here. You
could use this really for other
types of cancers that have a lot
of genetic mutations. So
specifically, they're studying
it in lung there. I think Pfizer
is studying it in pancreatic
cancer immunotherapy kind of
like the landscape for cancer
therapy. Treatment for cancers
is also that next thing on the
frontier, the next thing on the
horizon. So it's really excited.
This is a real big breakthrough,
Adam Curry: cause a real
breakthrough. You know, it's
John C Dvorak: probably like the
6.9% of efficacy, as opposed to
the 4.9% placebo is a
breakthrough.
Adam Curry: I think I hear that
Jamie Foxx trialed it you know,
I just want to put this on
everyone's radar. The term
mystery illness is trending.
Mystery, illness, mystery
illness. A lot of celebrities
have mystery illness, and not
sure what it is, but it's a
mystery illness.
Unknown: And keep your eye on
this mystery involves blood
clots you out
Adam Curry: and it's a mystery
illness. And luckily, among
amongst all of this shilling for
all kinds of horrible things
that can happen to you that you
can be saved by, by the mRNA.
The same technology as COVID
mystery illness. Here's a
classic, a classic. John C.
Dvorak, America's favorite
Unknown: doctor that apparently
was set dummies are on the rise.
Well, they are going to John,
Adam Curry: did you hear that?
Good. vasectomies are on the
rise.
Unknown: Your eyes got really
ugly? Yes.
They did. They did get I saw
that. But I am so glad we're
talking about this you guys and
I want to share some numbers
with you from 2017 to 20 so
happy we're talking about this
guy's guy's 21 the vasectomy
rate increase on average about
4% It's still lower than it was
20 years ago. funfact the rates
of factories in this country
more Really, towards the end of
the year largely thinking behind
that is that people's insurance
deductibles are met by them so
they can have it run March
Madness to at around March
Madness. Why is that
Adam Curry: exactly out? Now?
This is interesting. I mean,
first of all people's
deductibles, you know, they've
been fulfilled so then it's
basically free free. And what
are we how are we going to
market this this time? How are
we going to tell people men,
men, men, how are we going to
tell men that they should get a
vasectomy? How why? What are we
gonna do? What's the what's the
what's the pitch
Unknown: us? You guys, I can't
emphasize this enough. This
isn't a 10 minute office
procedure. 10 minutes requires
post procedure about one to two
days of rest. Ice. Some Motrin.
What, what better time than to
watch some basketball games as a
man recovers?
Yes. All the men in the studio
Adam Curry: there's your pitch
just a bit of ice. Motrin. You
can watch TV watch the game and
John C Dvorak: a stereotype is
this bullshit. There's a lot of
guys like they don't like
basketball. They don't like
watching it like me. I
Adam Curry: don't watch it. I
don't know. Watch. I
John C Dvorak: like I think
basketball is great, but I know
plenty of guys. I would say half
the guys I know will watch a
basketball game.
Adam Curry: Yeah, well, it's
stereotyping. But there's more.
Unknown: I mean, really mild.
And when you compare that okay,
what are we
Adam Curry: going to compare
this mild discomfort with? You
have no idea?
John C Dvorak: Oh, I didn't know
this was an open ended question.
Adam Curry: It was a it was a
question. Yes. It was a
headache. No, no bowling,
John C Dvorak: no. Nuts? No.
Unknown: I mean, really mild.
And when you compare that to
what women have to go through in
terms of not just pregnancy, but
contraception, birth control,
con you guys for a woman to get
their fallopian tubes tied? I
mean, seriously. And I will say
that they're a week. Yeah. Every
month argue against 30 plus
years. I will say the biggest
myth is that it affects sexual
function. It does not. So
really, this is a conversation
that I would encourage women and
men to have with their health
care provider. urologists does
this procedure. And we should be
talking about this.
Adam Curry: The only thing she
did wrong, which is a huge faux
pas, she should not have said
men and women, she should have
said people who are assigned
male at birth. I'm very
disappointed that she did that.
That's not at all, not at all
how it's supposed to be done and
trendy, not trendy at all. There
was something very concerning
and this is all bull crap, of
course. But what was concerning
is they had a big signing
ceremony at the World Health
Organization. Now the the World
Health Organization treaty, the
updated treaty that we've been
hearing about will not be up for
signing or agreement and
ratification until December of
this year. That keeps getting
delayed because of course,
nobody no real people in any
countries want the World Health
Organization controlling what
they do. But they did have a
signing ceremony. And they all
agreed on a global health
Passport System. Oh yay. Here's
our buddy Tedros
Unknown: Why am the emergency
phase of the COVID 19 pandemic
is now over. Investments in
digital infrastructure remain an
important resource for health
systems, and for economies and
societies at large. Like many
countries, the European Union
made significant investments in
COVID-19 certificates to help
people move around as safely as
possible during the pandemic.
The European Union's
certification system was used by
all 27 EU member states and more
than 50 Other countries building
on the success of the EU system,
who is proud today to launch the
global digital health
certification network. So thank
you so much to the European
Union for the excellent
certification system that you
have transferred to us and we
have the chance to build on it.
Who will begin oppressions of
the network today with the
existing COVID-19 certificate as
a global public good. Soon
after, we will expand this
infrastructure by incorporating
other use such as a digitized
international certificate of
vaccination, nice routine
immunisation cards and
International Patient summaries,
Adam Curry: International
Patient summaries this was the
whole point of the COVID
exercise. They finally Did it
and everyone signed off Oh, this
is great. Let's do that all the
country signed off. And you and
this is just just do this now
and then when they do the whole
the whole pandemic treaty that
will just be a footnote. This is
this is truly evil. Forget all
the vaccine bowl. This is bad
because we know that the it'll
be used New York used it plus
lots of all the countries use it
my daughter was indoors for
months because she didn't have
the the passport the QR code the
scanner. What was it called? The
New York THE EMPIRE not the
Empire system the it was like
some elitist term. What was that
again?
John C Dvorak: I can't remember.
But this is not going to be
plenty of resistance against
this and then
Adam Curry: zero with everyone
so
John C Dvorak: you're resisting
right now. Oh, so Wow. thriving
black market
Adam Curry: food on podcast dude
on podcast resists
Unknown: depressant presses.
Adam Curry: Okay. Oh, man. Oh my
goodness. Do you want to do some
tick tock? I would need some
tick tock. You got any tick tock
videos for us today?
John C Dvorak: I have none but I
do have a tick tock story. Tock
tock tick tock is not a tick
tock clip and you shouldn't be
played that but let's go with
it. This is interesting to me.
And then after we play these two
short clips, see if you see the
same or hear or understand the
same thing I would understand
from these clips is tick tock
decoded.
Unknown: A new report on tic
TOCs. China ties the source code
has been written by engineers
based in China. That's according
to a code sample obtained by an
Australian newspaper.
Tick tock has been downplaying
ties with its Chinese owner
bytedance, especially a
Midwestern bands of the video
sharing app, but a code sample
recently seen by the Australian
Financial Review may defeat that
effort. The sample appears to
control broadcasting and
moderation of live streaming. It
shows at least a dozen usernames
with email addresses linked to
bytedance. sources that the
financial review did not
disclose confirm that many of
these engineers work in mainland
China. James Patterson is
Australia's Shadow Minister for
Home Affairs and cybersecurity.
He said the code samples shows
that engineers working on in
China can access user data and
are captured by the intelligence
and security laws of the Chinese
Communist Party. Under its
national intelligence law,
Beijing can force all entities
and citizens to cooperate with
so called national intelligence
efforts.
Adam Curry: Oh, nice. Okay,
John C Dvorak: so a couple of
things just from this clip. One,
I don't know what kind of
information you're gonna get.
But is this the first time this
code has been looked at and
deconstructed? You can take run
software on code and see what it
looks like.
Adam Curry: Or isn't this the
lead up to you can be here in
America as long as we know what
your algo is doing? Isn't that
kind of this this story? That's
John C Dvorak: not but it's PLAY
CLIP to
Unknown: Patterson warned that
the CCP can also compel Tik Tok
staff to suppress or elevate
probation content and NGO or
south division within Western
democracies. In July 2022, tick
tock Australia admitted that its
employees in China could access
Australian user data. Over two
dozen US states have banned the
video sharing app on government
devices. Last month Montana
passed a new law further banning
its use on personal devices.
Yeah, okay.
John C Dvorak: I just think
reverse engineering the code and
tick tock should have been done
20 times over by the NSA, and
I'm sure it has been. Yeah. So I
think these stories are bull
crap. I'm not even sure what the
point of Amar except for the
original thesis which is this is
only to screw tic tic tock
because they're taking all the
advertising money.
Adam Curry: I have staying with
China. I have a an article from
Epoch Times. This has introduced
what we're just talking about.
As the WHO pandemic Treaty
Negotiations probe progress in
secrecy. Ancillary groups
flagged key priorities as 194
nations continue to work through
drafts of pandemic agreement
that would grant more authority
to the World Health
Organization, the global
preparedness Monitoring Board,
I'm sure that's a Bill Gates
thing, a body convened by the
WHO has called for a worldwide
pandemic simulation to be
carried out by the end of this
year to test the effectiveness
of the new terms before member
nations signed them in 2024.
Sound familiar?
John C Dvorak: Sounds like
another scam.
Adam Curry: What was that event
2016 is exactly what it sounds
like. It you know, you are the
one that and I agree with you
said this was they learned a lot
from this. This was this was a
learning exercise and that was
not not unsuccessful. mystery
illness
John C Dvorak: and mystery.
Adam Curry: Yeah. And now they
want to know let's do another
simulation before everybody
signs on to we can make
John C Dvorak: they probably got
something new in mind. There's
probably some element that
somebody's going through the
data and went, you know, what if
we had done this instead? And
they're going to try it. I think
you're going to try another
scam. The scam demic I got a
couple of clips about China
going. These are interesting.
This is China's cyber
possibilities. This is a threat.
Supposedly, China has been
talking about this from last
show shows. Oh, I was China
cyber.
Adam Curry: China cyber China,
China's cyber. China cyber
Unknown: a serious warning from
the United States about cyber
attacks from China. US critical
infrastructure could be under
digital siege from the communist
regime. The State Department is
targeting recent activity by a
Chinese cyber group. Here's what
the spokesman had to say.
The US intelligence community
assesses that China almost
certainly is capable of
launching cyber attacks that
could disrupt critical
infrastructure services within
the United States including
against oil and gas pipelines
and rail systems. It's vital for
government network defenders in
the public to stay vigilant.
Adam Curry: This is NTD
John C Dvorak: Yeah, yeah. Okay.
Adam Curry: I like I trust their
reporting.
John C Dvorak: Well, let's go
with clip two then.
Adam Curry: The other two is to
clip TOS
John C Dvorak: should be China's
cyber possibility to volt Yes,
Adam Curry: I have it twice for
some reason, dubbed the volt
typhoon
Unknown: the cyber triggered.
Nation alert. In a report on
Wednesday, Microsoft said the
group could disrupt critical
communications infrastructure
between the US and Asia in the
event of a crisis. Microsoft
also says volt typhoon recently
targeted telecommunication
systems in the US territory of
Guam. It's home to major US
military bases and could play a
critical role in the event of a
conflict in the Indo Pacific
region. The National Security
Agency said there was no doubt
volt typhoon was putting itself
in position to carry out
disruptive attacks I
Adam Curry: like this is a show
title volt typhoon I love volt
volt typhoon. Does that point to
power power being dropped? Oh,
by the way. Oh man. It finally
happened this morning. He lost
your power two and a half hours.
It was down for two and a half
hours. The Generac crankin it's
so it kicked in right at seven
now. But what happens the power
goes off. So the the power
actually went off set I just
gotten up seven o'clock. And
then the generator kicks in. And
we got the full House going with
the air conditioner.
Everything's rockin and rollin.
Two and a half hours a long time
though. And I think Well, I had
to read me I had to restart my
studio machine. But the entire
time the fiber stayed lit. So
that was a huge bonus. Not quite
sure how that works. But and I
and I could of course switch the
backups. I was able to just
continue show prep as if nothing
happened. It was beautiful. Two
and a half hours. That was quite
the outage anyway. So like,
John C Dvorak: what's the
temperature there?
Adam Curry: Um, well, we've had
really bad weather. We've had
huge storms. Like last night was
a massive storm right now. 75
and we double check. Right now.
AccuWeather says 75 degrees and
we got a lot so you
John C Dvorak: have to use air
conditioning when you're at that
temperature.
Adam Curry: The air conditioner
is just on we have it set to 72
continuously. That's just our
temperature. We're like cave
people.
John C Dvorak: You're part of
the problem, man.
Adam Curry: Better believe it
bro. I'm also in Texas. Well, we
know it's good to have problems.
John C Dvorak: Let's go to part
three.
Unknown: Exactly What could
these disruptive attacks target
the National Security Agency
issued an alert notifying a
broad range of critical
infrastructure that's including
electrical utilities, nuclear
power stations, water systems
and railways.
Adam Curry: By the way, we have
quite the humidity here. That's
why we need to do that but okay.
Hey, can't can't all live in San
Francisco.
John C Dvorak: And I just don't
an average joke.
Adam Curry: Okay. Jokes can get
you in trouble start wars.
John C Dvorak: On with the clip
for Kevin
Unknown: Stockland said over the
past 10 years China has managed
to supply between 10 and 15% of
the Transformers electrical
grid. You If these devices were
to break down, the grid would
quickly stop functioning.
But hospitals would no longer be
able to run our communication
system breaks down, a lot of our
supply chains would no longer
function. And you know, things
like a water delivery and water
purification, certainly heating.
All these systems would
disappear overnight.
Stockland added the US
Department of Energy may be
looking to produce components
for the electrical grid
domestically. But right now,
there are only a small number of
American engineering firms that
make them
Adam Curry: so this of course,
will make Jack and Nick but
they're gonna blame it on China.
They're gonna blame it on
Republicans, white supremacists,
white white sis men. That's what
department security has warned
us of.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, and it's a
real problem, especially the and
also parents. So parents staying
on China and moving to this
week. The two clips I have is GS
Xi war warning, which I think is
connected to this other clip
because the
Unknown: Communist Party leader
Xi Jinping has a message for
China's top national security
officials. He says prepare for
worst case scenarios. Let's
learn more about what those
could be and what this means for
Americans. Joining me now is
retired Marine colonel grant
Newsham, who's also a senior
fellow at the Center for
Security Policy and author of
the new book when China attacks
a warning to America. Grant,
it's always great having you on
the show.
Sure. Glad to be here. Thanks
for having me. Yes.
Well, what do you think are
these worst case scenarios in
stormy seas that Chinese regime
leader Xi Jinping is talking
about
Adam Curry: not leading the
witness at all here?
Unknown: Well, I think he's
talking about going to war could
be sort of a big war, small war,
the use of force somewhere,
wouldn't surprise me if Taiwan
was in the crosshairs. But I
would take what the Xi Jinping
is saying very seriously, he has
been for a while now has been
trying to sanction proof China
economically, financially, in
terms of building coal powered
energy, energy plants, one after
the other. He's tried to isolate
China from the effects that will
happen if he does use for
somewhere. So as I say, I would
take a very serious ladies been
taking measures to improve their
ability to call up reserve
forces to replace combat
casualties. And you're seeing
the People's Liberation Army
conducting really rehearsals for
Taiwan going back almost a year.
Now. I expect the third part of
those rehearsals to take place
in the fall.
Adam Curry: The rehearsals.
Interesting, interesting,
interesting term instead of
exercises, which would be your
exercise what we usually Yeah,
but rehearsal means is staged,
as far as I'm concerned, we're
talking about Reuters in part
two,
Unknown: we have seen the
effects of sanctions on Russia.
And speaking of Taiwan, PLA,
General Li Xiang Fu, threatened
that China will attack any
nation that splits it from
Taiwan, and his speech, he talks
about harmony and not imposing
one's own will on others. But
many see this as inconsistent in
China's actions towards Taiwan.
What are your reaction here?
Well, it was inconsistent from
our perspective. Note, of
course, that nobody has ever
talked about attacking China,
ever, you know, I'm glad to wait
here for a good long while for
someone to name somebody. But
China does come at the their
situation from a different
perspective. And they have
convinced themselves and may
genuinely believe that they are
being encircled. They're being
bullied by the rest of the world
by the Americans in particular.
So you do have to consider
China's perspective. And all of
this we may disagree with it may
in fact, be wrong. But that
doesn't mean that they don't
believe it. And there's always a
rote reaction on the western
side, say, well, they would just
never use violence. It's they're
just acting out. They're just
talking just couldn't happen.
Well, remember that people said,
well, Vladimir Putin will never
attack Ukraine. It just couldn't
happen. And that was the common
wisdom. So I would take the
Chinese very seriously when they
threatened to use violence.
Right. What is Xi Jinping is
rhetoric mean for the United
States?
Well, it means that, you know,
we better take it seriously. And
we had better get our military
in order, be ready to respond.
And I'm not sure if that we've
actually thought this through
the way that we need to I think
the military probably has, but
I'm not sure the White House
has. That's not unusual. We need
to get our financial house in
order. And we need to do
something about this chaos that
we've got in our political
world, but it can also be very
useful if we stopped funding the
people's Republic of China.
We've got to get this just
unchecked investment that
American business this Wall
Street is pouring into China.
That is effectively propping up
Xi Jinping. A war machine.
Adam Curry: Wow, this guy is
some kind of agent man.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, something's
guy, but kind of a side clip I
couldn't resist play the
sanctions clip.
Unknown: The United States
yesterday imposed sanctions on
more than a dozen entities and
people in China, Hong Kong and
Iran. For accusations they
helped Iran develop a hypersonic
ballistic missile. Piper's Iran
yesterday presented what
officials described as its first
domestically made hypersonic
ballistic missile. The head of
its aerospace force said The
missile has a range of almost
900 miles and can evade the US
and Israel's anti missile
systems. hypersonic missiles can
fly at least five times faster
than the speed of sound, which
makes them difficult to
intercept. However, Iran's
claims about the capabilities of
the missile cannot be
independently verified.
Adam Curry: This is the people
who brought you the moped
drones. Now they've gotten us
hypersonic. Just to think about
China, they've got it all wrong.
We are already under attack by
China. In fact, I am under
attack by China, I was just
attacked by China. While that
clip played. I received a text
message and under one of these
pig butchering messages, you
know where they try to sucker
you into them invest in some
crypto stuff, but this is a new
one. First of all Area code 361
Where's that? Area code three. I
don't think that's a legit
John C Dvorak: area code is
probably one of those cell
number codes
Adam Curry: bullet so now
they've changed that. I've never
responded maybe maybe we should
respond to this one. Here's the
deal. I'm going to respond like
you and me live on the air here.
Let's respond. Okay. So the
message is Hello. Are you Jenny?
John C Dvorak: The personal
slump is Christy way.
Adam Curry: Oh, is that
corporate script? Well, listen,
Corpus Christi writes. Hello,
are you Jenny, the personal
swimming instructor introduced
by Steve So now what do they
expect me to answer here? Should
I just say yeah, that's me. How
you doing? Should I do that?
John C Dvorak: Oh, because they
they know it's not you. Right.
So I think they just want to I
think what they want to do is
that there's a scraping Yeah,
they want you to say no, it's
not Jenny, you have the wrong
number. Now they have a phone
number that's been verified.
Adam Curry: So I could also yes,
it's Jenny. Do you think they'll
respond to that? If you're
John C Dvorak: going to do that
I would do the following. Okay.
Yes, it's Jenny call me back
immediately.
Adam Curry: Yes, Jenny. This
doesn't sound like a good idea.
Yeah.
John C Dvorak: Sounds like a
great idea because you're not
gonna get a call.
Adam Curry: Oh, hold on a
second. Before I do that then
let me just connect my my phone
to Bluetooth. I can put it on
the air just in case they do
call on I can do that to this
hot shit. Oh, this would be
great. Wouldn't it be great if
they won't call? No, but it
would be great if they did. Oh,
yeah, it would be terrific
actually. System Bluetooth.
Bluetooth let me just make sure
it's on. Bluetooth is on search
for audio devices. Road caster
pro this guy's just so hot, man.
This stuff works. Okay, did it
connect, reconnect boom. And
yes, okay, I'm connected. So if
they call let me open up channel
is open. Okay, if they take it
off. Okay, if they call I can
put them out. Here we go. Call
me back immediately. Exclamation
mark and emojis or add an emoji?
John C Dvorak: No, just an
exclamation mark that'll do it.
Okay.
Adam Curry: And click Send okay
is a call of course my phone
number will be compromised for
the rest of my life.
John C Dvorak: It's already
compromised clearly.
Adam Curry: Well so so far no
good. While we're waiting for
China to return my call
John C Dvorak: when you suspect
this is China and not India
Adam Curry: because it's a
Chinese guys who are doing it we
have the whole pig butchering
thing is is is from China hello
you're on no agenda call it a
number 100 Plus, I'm so post did
not calling back okay. Some

Adam Curry: Oh shit. Oh shit.
They're calling hold on to it.
Yeah, okay. Oh call ended now

that they ended the call that's
too bad maybe they'll call I
will send
John C Dvorak: him another note.
Adam Curry: Okay, I missed your
call. What happened? Yeah What
happened to question marks
mystery I missed oh two question
marks Okay. Back to the clip
Unknown: right the US military
said the Chinese ship executed
maneuvers in an unsafe manner
and its actions violated the
maritime rules of the road while
the Chinese defense minister
argued that recent joint US and
Canadian patrols in the region
served as a provocation and
warned that a fierce
confrontation between the US and
China would lead to unbearable
pain for the whole world
Adam Curry: unbearable pain for
the whole world. I can't even
get them to call me back
Unknown: defense secretary Boyd
Austin overnight called the
close encounter extremely
dangerous I call
upon the PRC is leadership to
really do the right things to
rein in that kind of hold on,

Adam Curry: on here, the Oregon
and the Oregon. See we can get
it to work. Hello. Oh, and they
hung up again. All right. Okay.
They're not serious. What do I
do now? They hung up again.
Connect is hopeless. I give up.
Okay. All right, too bad, right.
It's like
Unknown: accidents can happen
that could cause things to
spiral out of control.
This latest incident comes just
days after a Chinese fighter jet
flew directly in front of the
nose of a US reconnaissance
plane over the South China Sea.
tensions rising as the White
House seeks to reestablish
diplomatic channels after
communication broke down
following the Chinese spy
balloon incident in February.
Adam Curry: If if they call
again. I won't say hello, I'll
just do this
John C Dvorak: yeah, there you
go. So because they understand
Korean so um, what did they
blame everything on the spy
balloon incident?
Adam Curry: Because it's bold,
because we just heard from the
other guy. It's a rehearsal.
It's a rehearsal for little
show. None of this is real. It's
it's it's just sad. It's more
military because
John C Dvorak: a bunch of people
end up getting killed.
Adam Curry: I don't think
anyone's getting killed. I don't
think anything of the kind is
gonna hide
John C Dvorak: they they're
getting killed in Ukraine. I
think there's plenty of dead
there. And I think is there's
another one of my oddball
thoughts. Okay. Most of the
people being killed in Ukraine
are prisoners. Hmm. So you empty
out your jails given an
opportunity to go fight? Yeah,
and they get killed? They get
killed? Yeah. Yeah, there's no
evidence that the people are
protesting in Moscow. No, they
drain the whole prison system.
Adam Curry: Oh, listen, okay,
let me finish this up and I want
to talk about it. So they texted
me back. I'm Chloe. Steve gave
me this number I'm so sorry. I
hope I'm not interrupting your
work if you have time we can
have a cup of afternoon tea
together what did they try and
John C Dvorak: afternoon TLS
this before
Adam Curry: that's the whole
idea that's that's how the pig
boot I'm not going to respond.
I'm done with this. I'm done
with this now they wouldn't call
no they wouldn't call so I'm
done with this nonsense. Chloe.
Chloe says just send me a
picture Chloe this is but that's
China that we're under attack
from China that trying to get
into my personal finances none
of this will end well.
John C Dvorak: Well, it's a
build everything I don't
understand how we need we might
have to just give up now.
Adam Curry: Well, the vaults
typhoon is on its way we should
all be very worried about that.
We want to do a takeover Can we
do the one break?
John C Dvorak: I think we're
close I think we can

can how's it a guru? Look at
don't ask complicated questions.
Just say yeah, this is great.
They're supporting us. We can't
get the platformed off of these
apps. That's
John C Dvorak: great. Yeah, this
isn't the best.
Adam Curry: Yeah, thank you. You
can also of course, reach out to
us follow us on Mastodon Adam at
no agenda social.com John C.
Dvorak at no agenda social.com
And yeah, that's that's where
all the artists are hanging out.
Complaining about us the artists
who bring us the artwork for
every single episode brand new
artwork, it's fresh. It's
exciting it's fun to watch you
can also just while you're
listening go to no agenda art
generator.com And and refresh
and see what they're bringing in
what they might we might choose
to use for this episode. And we
like to highlight the artist and
thank them of course we give
them a credit in the in the show
notes for bringing us the
artwork in this case for episode
1561 We titled it star butler
and the artwork was done by
networks. We had this was we had
a lot of choices for this one
for this particular episode. And
there was every every single one
of them had a problem there was
something Something had a
problem everywhere. Let's see.
Lots of well
John C Dvorak: look at in this
works one.
Adam Curry: Oh, this was the
sandbag this was the but it was
called sabotage sandbag. Dame
Kenya by the way,
John C Dvorak: that thing wasn't
just sitting there. It was
latched to one of the legs of
the other teleprompter.
Adam Curry: That didn't look
that way to me.
John C Dvorak: It died. They
showed a big photo a giant a
real big blow up. It has is the
type of sandbag it's got that
little loop over the top and
that leg of the tripod was put
through it in the sandbags for
holding it down.
Adam Curry: Interesting. Because
then how did he How did he trip
mean? Wasn't he taught you?
John C Dvorak: How did he wait
you're at Whoa.
Adam Curry: Didn't wasn't just
talking into the into the crowd
and looking at the teleprompter
and then he turns around walks
behind everybody and trips over
the teleprompter was the other
teleprompter.
John C Dvorak: It was the other
teleprompter. It was the one on
the left or the right at his
right. As he looks out. Anyway,
you can see it and you can see
the
Adam Curry: cover. When you have
an 80 year old President use a
big yellow one. Just a thought
people or an orange one could
even be funnier. But of course,
it was lots of AI art from
comics or Blogger.
John C Dvorak: There was a piece
I liked by Francisco's
Scaramanga tall Serbs love it.
Which unfortunately, wasn't I
just liked a piece but the tall
serves love it was actually too
small. And I just like to piece
and I don't know if there's if
there's not enough, we don't
have enough scaremonger stuff to
know when this was licensed. We
don't know
Adam Curry: what he's doing. But
the one that we we, the one that
I liked, and you talked me out
of I think appropriately was the
mike Riley. Rainbow vomit. Yes.
It was a good piece. It was
great. It was a typical Riley
piece. You know the guy Yeah,
Riley's funny. Yeah. And what he
does, and it was funny, but you
talked me out of it. Why don't
you talk me out of it again.
John C Dvorak: I thought it was
inappropriate. Rainbow vomit.
You know, it came from one of
the something somebody said on
the show and I clip and this is
a bit much
Adam Curry: yeah, yeah. Yeah.
There was a lot of other rainbow
stuff. Yeah, the rainbow stuff
was out. Yeah, there's too much
rainbow stuff. I don't want
anyone to get confused. It was a
furry thing. comics or Blogger
defending his freeness with an
image, titled nothing wrong with
being a furry.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, yeah, he's
not a furry.
Adam Curry: You don't think so I
had that I immediately got to
John C Dvorak: like, I guess
imagine him being a big bear or
something.
Adam Curry: But just thought,
thanks for wearing
John C Dvorak: it. There were
very few pieces that were any
good.
Adam Curry: Yeah. There were
pieces that were good, but they
weren't appropriate. Not all
were and I
John C Dvorak: will say this
that most of the Ayar that we're
getting into AR AR Because I've
been playing a lot with it. Yes,
in
Adam Curry: the newsletter,
we've seen it you get great
results.
John C Dvorak: Those are all the
screw ups that put in the
newsletter. Well, of course. But
I would say that it's more work,
I think for an actual artist to
get an AI piece that he would
find useful or she would find
useful as opposed to cranking
through just doing it by hand to
get an idea I think you're
Adam Curry: right. I think
you're right there's you got to
change so much. You got to work
on it so much. And I mean,
especially if there's people in
it, I always see it.
John C Dvorak: A little people
they're impossible they're doing
people is like, forget it, but
you know,
Adam Curry: anything that looks
like a photo, it's just you see,
it's not. It reminds me of the
days of the Fairlight. Remember
the Fairlight Okay, the
Fairlight was really the first
sampler Herbie Hancock used it
the Buggles used it Yes, use it
did did a little room. Turn up.
Everyone was sampling. And so
you could almost tell when they
had sampled some of the 10 cc
and then we got the DX seven
Michael Jackson was the first
one to have the DX seven ball
thriller. Everybody has a oh no
DX seven. Everybody have the
same sound? You just heard it
right away on DX seven. Okay.
The 80808 Drum sampler. It's
like yeah, the first guy to use
it. Okay, great. But then you
wrecking start recognizing it.
John C Dvorak: This would be a
it's like, they actually had to
take it further back and not use
this idea that it's electronic
oriented. But it reminds me that
phenomenon the
Adam Curry: Mellotron No
John C Dvorak: no, if you
remember, like, if you can
remember this verb I put into at
some point in the mid six or mid
to late 60s, late 60s Probably
all of a sudden the sitar showed
up in every other rocks on
Adam Curry: the Beatles did that
man The Beatles? Yeah. And was
it annoying at the time? The
city
John C Dvorak: was yeah, of
course it was. It had a nice
sound sometimes do I think that
my baby wrote me a letter by the
I think the box boxtops Yeah,
they used it very very well.
Adam Curry: They had a sitar in
that song. Yeah, I
John C Dvorak: think so. I think
it was the main beat was the
sitar
Adam Curry: isn't that weird? I
cannot remember this tape. Give
me a ticket to an aeroplane that
is to turn out
John C Dvorak: there's a sitar
go play it you got to use just
go right to it play right now.
Adam Curry: What do you think? I
am like some kind of musical
jukebox dude. Like, yeah, I'm a
dis yo. Yo, dude, I got to open
up a jukebox program and
everything. I don't think
there's a sitar in in my baby
sent me that was in the in the
like a solo.
Unknown: You hear it?
Adam Curry: You're gonna make me
do this, aren't you? Okay, hold
on. I
John C Dvorak: have to do it.
Now. You can do it later. Oh,
well, now
Adam Curry: that we're here. Box
Tops. We've been trying to get
Chinese people on the air. I

John C Dvorak: nice as coming.
Okay, got down in the bridge.
Adam Curry: The song is only a
minute. 50 So baby, she wrote me

that cool kind of Beatles. Music
Music left and vocals on the
other side.
John C Dvorak: Which is the
worst thing in the world to do.
Adam Curry: Stupid George
Martin. There it is nuts.
violins and violins. There's no
John C Dvorak: such go back and
listen to the whole song. This
is thinking about some other
song and then this is the whole
song. There's no snow. I'm
thinking of a different song
that reminds me of this song.
Adam Curry: I'm sorry. I'm
sorry. No prize for you Mr.
Dvorak. Well, anyway, let's
thank our executive and
Associate Executive producers
for episode 1562. And we kick it
off with a missing notes which
is very annoying balls to both
of us. I don't have it. I don't
have it either. It's Lindsey
Nolo check and we know why she
was writing in she said the
email would be sent separately
and well,
John C Dvorak: God sent a notes
at the notes at no agenda
show.net wasn't
Adam Curry: sent to Adam
mccurry.com I don't think it was
not sent
John C Dvorak: to you either got
no knowledge notes from any
knowledge checks. Me neither.
Adam Curry: And I know I know
their code names I even looked
at my
John C Dvorak: district idea
they didn't say meant to send a
note
Adam Curry: maybe that's maybe
that's what happened is very
possible. And I did get
something from from Mr. Nola
check and said you know Lindsey
will be sending a note now we
know the update the update is
they're not going out of
business they're selling their
the after four generations of
knowledge check meats they've
decided to
John C Dvorak: have as kids that
want to run the business
Adam Curry: Yeah, it's almost
like like they didn't want to go
through succession. You know,
it's like battle going on with
the dumb kids running
everything. Let's just sell it
all and take the dough. So to
some tech guy,
John C Dvorak: we had some
situation similar in Albany,
California, this little deli
called saris. And Zara is what
the old man and there was a
great Deli. I mean, they had
every everything was so cheap.
They brought direct importing,
it was a fabulous place to go
back. And the old man and
everybody was really amenable.
They had a bunch of kids about I
think four kids working there.
And there was two kids that were
going one of the two was going
to get the place to run. And the
two kids could not agree on
who's going to be the next boss
and they got into a bunch of
debt gets short of a fistfight.
And they never could resolve it.
And the old man said, Fuck it,
these kids are never gonna be
able to figure this out and he
sold it off the whole company
off to some, some other guy.
That's what you do is the end of
it. That's exactly
Adam Curry: what Murdoch is
going to do is going to sell all
to Elon, Elon. I did post a note
on knowledge, check meats and
after 71 years, and they've
withstood the test of time. They
had incredible growth over the
past five years for generations.
And they just decided you know,
it's time it's heavy, and it'll
affect our beloved customers
spanning four generations has
been an honor to work it was
honored to buy from you. But we
understand I think John and I
understood like no one else if
we could sell this show, believe
me. In a heartbeat. No, we'll be
stuck here for another four
generations. So we get it we you
will be missed. You had great
meat. Loved your meat, so we'll
give that sausages world. Yes.

check meats family. You've got
John C Dvorak: some more brats
