be doing a podcast. Adam curry,
0:03
John C. Devora. February 11 2020
for the show award winning given
0:07
nation media assassination
episode 1633.
0:11
Unknown: This is no agenda that
0:14
Adam Curry: 25th is back on deck
and we're broadcasting live from
0:17
the heart of the Texas hill
country here in FEMA Region
0:20
number six in the morning,
everybody. I'm Adam curry. And
0:23
John C Dvorak: from Northern
Silicon Valley we finally
0:26
realize it Super Bowl Sunday.
I'm John Cena borax
0:30
Adam Curry: kill. Yeah, sports
balls. Baby. We're all jacked
0:37
and happy about sports Bo.
0:41
John C Dvorak: And I will the
last two weeks in
0:44
Adam Curry: sports ball.
0:45
John C Dvorak: Yes. All these
sports ball talk shows is all
0:50
they do. I mean, I don't know
how much you can talk about
0:52
something to such an extreme.
Yak, yak, yak, yak, yak, yak,
0:57
yak, yak, yak.
0:58
Adam Curry: I'm sorry. Before we
continue, I want to warn
1:01
everybody. Several times during
today's broadcast, we will be
1:05
switching away to cutaways of
Taylor Swift. Oh,
1:08
Unknown: we all need to calm
down and I'm not talking about
1:10
the podcast I'm talking about
having Taylor Swift here.
1:14
Adam Curry: There you go. Just
once in a while. We gotta cut to
1:16
Taylor Swift. So we all have
seen that she's here.
1:19
John C Dvorak: I think she's
going to come out on stage at
1:21
the halftime show.
1:21
Adam Curry: Did this okay. Calm
down. She's not going to come
1:28
out on Do you think she's going
to come out on stage of the
1:30
halftime show with Usher Sure.
Naked. I wanted to give us a
1:37
little props. I got a note from
our boots on the ground. That M
1:41
five M news quote quote, quote
news outlets were pitching NORAD
1:47
to have Taylor's F Taylor
Swift's playing tract. They
1:51
called the Public Affairs
Office. They really wanted this
1:53
just like Santa Claus. And they
all said knew. But we were
1:58
right. That is the it's the
extent of peak swiftness.
2:04
John C Dvorak: Well, the problem
is, of course, is that she
2:07
actually landed yesterday
morning. Is this true?
2:12
Adam Curry: I thought she had a
concert just to jump on the
2:14
plane and visit day
2:15
John C Dvorak: ahead. And so
she's already been back
2:20
yesterday morning and she landed
in LA in the morning and she got
2:24
to Florida yesterday.
2:26
Adam Curry: This is disappointed
ruined. Did
2:28
John C Dvorak: that ruin the
idea for NORAD? Yeah,
2:31
Adam Curry: that's
disappointing. I thought we're
2:32
gonna get a tracking you know,
have her her cutaways of her
2:37
convoy coming from the airport.
Will she make it in time? Will
2:40
she make it in time?
2:42
John C Dvorak: Oh, brother.
Yeah, that's what you would that
2:45
would be ideal. If we were
producing it. We don't fake
2:48
that. You know, it could still
happen. We
2:50
Adam Curry: do that we would do
that. Right away.
2:53
John C Dvorak: They could fake
it the way they did. The last
2:58
good news clip from last show I
got a lot of flack from
3:03
Adam Curry: Oh, I even Yes, yes,
people were very disappointed by
3:07
they felt bad
3:08
John C Dvorak: about the deed
being disappointed but including
3:11
him. Oh, we have a Milwaukee
Police guy who did a lot of
3:15
research on this and any
research found the city
3:19
everything all the details. It
was it was a legit story. But my
3:23
commentary and I never said it
wasn't a legit story. I said
3:27
that it was sweetened with a lot
of staged clips within it, which
3:34
is what NBC does they I think
they do some of the poorest news
3:38
reporting.
3:38
Adam Curry: I think I don't
think you covered your tracks
3:40
very well. There was no I didn't
I forgot it. You didn't use the
3:44
there's no evidence. I mean, you
did not do a great job.
3:48
John C Dvorak: But the fact is
that there's no way that they
3:51
some of those clips, they could
have even had them so it's all
3:54
right. Everybody loves you.
Especially a little girl in the
3:56
backseat go Where's daddy? Where
did they get that
3:59
Adam Curry: recording on? It's
okay. The thing that I was
4:02
amazed by is that so many people
listen all the way to the end of
4:05
the show. Like this is
4:07
John C Dvorak: good. All the
cops do for sure this is this is
4:11
good. We love cops in their car.
patrol of course
4:15
Adam Curry: over what else
you're gonna do. Listen to the
4:17
show. Of course. You know it.
All right. My assessment inside
4:24
attack 25th amendment on deck.
Biden realizes he's in trouble.
4:34
John C Dvorak: Biden doesn't
realize anything now.
4:36
Adam Curry: Did you watch the
whole press conference from
4:39
beginning to end? Yes.
4:41
John C Dvorak: I watched the
whole thing. What the whole
4:44
seven minutes 17
4:45
Adam Curry: was 17 minutes.
Okay. And the way the news cut
4:51
this up, they're in on it,
obviously. Because yeah, he made
4:56
a mistake about CC okay. I mean,
obviously, that's not your top
4:59
level performance. Is
presidential material, but the
5:02
way they were cutting it? Well,
I have some clips obviously, the
5:06
way they were cutting in some of
his responses to make it look
5:09
even worse. Yeah. T he came out
he was ready to defend his
5:15
stance. He fumbled a few things,
but they turn this into he's a
5:20
bumbling idiot. And his. Okay,
let's start off the main talking
5:27
point, angry and defiant
president. Second,
5:32
John C Dvorak: you're just going
right into the store without
5:33
giving any background for anyone
who might be listening overseas
5:36
or anyplace else about what
we're talking about. Oh, but the
5:40
background but
5:41
Adam Curry: everybody
understands Taylor Swift. Biden
5:46
came out? Well, it's in the
report. The background is in the
5:49
report
5:50
John C Dvorak: go on and did
describe dude, a report came out
5:54
Adam Curry: here but it's in
this it's in this clip. That is
5:58
John C Dvorak: all covered in
the clip templates. Yes,
6:01
Adam Curry: thank you for
slowing the pace down President
6:03
Biden
6:04
Unknown: angry and defiant. My
memory is fine. In a hastily
6:08
called evening news conference.
The President responding
6:10
directly to Special Counsel
Robert hars reports on his
6:13
handling of classified documents
on the document that included a
6:18
blistering assessment of the 81
year old age and what the report
6:23
has diminished faculties in
advancing age. The President
6:27
slamming hers assessment that he
did not remember when his son
6:30
Beau died. How
6:32
the hell dare he raised? I don't
need anyone. I don't need anyone
6:37
to remind me when he passed
away.
6:39
The remarks coming hours after
the special counsel said our
6:42
investigation uncovered evidence
that President Biden willfully
6:45
retained to disclose classified
materials after his vice
6:49
presidency, but said no criminal
charges are warranted in this
6:53
matter. Adding to the jury would
likely see the President as a
6:56
sympathetic well meaning an
elderly man with a poor memory.
7:01
I will mean I'm an older man and
I know what the hell I'm doing
7:04
moment
7:05
Adam Curry: this the all have
the news reports, all the
7:09
packages had this where where
they say oh is an elderly man
7:15
with poor memory. And they cut
him saying I'm an elderly man
7:18
with poor memory. But in
context, he was complaining
7:22
about that one sentence this
right for people. And most
7:25
people, of course, don't watch
the full thing. It really sounds
7:29
like oh my god, that guy is
toast, not saying he isn't. But
7:33
it wasn't all
7:34
Unknown: that bad. That IQ well
meaning an elderly man with a
7:37
poor memory.
7:39
Well, meaning I'm an older man.
And I know what the hell I'm
7:42
doing Moments
7:42
later, the president confusing
Mexico and Egypt. When talking
7:46
about the crisis in Gaza,
7:48
the president of Mexico CC did
not want to open up the gate to
7:52
allow humanitarian material to
get in.
7:55
Adam Curry: And the other thing,
and I'm not defending Biden, but
7:57
I just want to point out that
the news is in on this the M
8:00
five M because it wasn't Moments
later, he had actually walked
8:03
off. And they came back to
answer some questions about
8:06
Israel. So it was separated by
many minutes. I believe you have
8:11
some clips about the documents
themselves, which I'd like to
8:14
give you some space to talk
about. And then I would like to
8:18
go back to the M five M analysis
and packages.
8:23
John C Dvorak: Well, first of
all, I have a couple of clips
8:26
here I want to play. That's what
I suggested. I want to play the
8:31
gaff that I thought was the bad
one, which was came right at the
8:34
beginning. When he's all upset
about his night remembering
8:39
today his son died, which I
believe is probably true, and
8:43
probably documented. But is is
the gaffe that he made right
8:47
then when he when he came out to
deny it, which is this one which
8:50
I still think is the was the big
gaffe of the day not to Mexico,
8:54
one minutes, the Biden, Our Lady
of gaff,
8:57
Unknown: I know there's some
attention paid to some language
9:00
and report about my recollection
of events. There's even
9:03
referenced that I don't remember
when my son died. How in the
9:09
hell dare he raised that?
Frankly, when I was asked the
9:13
question, I thought to myself,
wasn't any of their damn
9:16
business. Let me tell you
something. Somebody would come
9:21
in and I were since the day he
died. Every single day the
9:24
rosary he got from Our Lady of
this. Every Memorial Day we hold
9:31
a service remember him attended
by friends and family and the
9:35
people will love to?
9:36
John C Dvorak: Well, yes, Our
Lady of and he like couldn't
9:40
remember where it was now since
you Guadalupe, by the way for
9:43
anything
9:44
Adam Curry: since you bring that
up. When he came back to respond
9:49
to
9:51
John C Dvorak: I guess,
screaming Reporter Well,
9:53
Adam Curry: they were all they
were all screaming reporters. He
9:56
had he said something under his
breath and then he came What I
10:00
thought was quite the
revelation. He wants to talk
10:04
about the hostage negotiation.
And he says something like,
10:09
yeah, how do I, how do I, how do
I say this without without
10:13
revealing anything? So there's
some plan.
10:15
Unknown: So that's what we're
pushing around. I'm pushing very
10:17
hard now to deal with this
hostage ceasefire. Because, as
10:23
you know, I've been working
tirelessly in this deal. How can
10:27
I say this?
10:28
Adam Curry: How can I say this
without reveal? If I was, if I
10:32
was in his niche, if I was asked
him, I'd be very worried about
10:35
this guy to
10:37
Unknown: lead to a sustained
pause in the fighting in the
10:41
actions taking place in the Gaza
Strip. And because I think if we
10:47
can get the delay for that
initial delay, I think that we
10:54
wouldn't be able to extend that
so that we could increase the
11:00
prospect that this fighting in
Gaza changes. There's also other
11:04
negotiations, that listen
11:06
Adam Curry: to what he says now
he talks about just before
11:08
October 7,
11:10
Unknown: you may recall, in the
very beginning, right after,
11:15
right before Hamas attacked
right after right before I was
11:19
in contact with the Saudis and
others, to work out a deal where
11:23
they would recognize Israel's
right to exist, let them make
11:27
them part of the Middle East and
recognize them fully, in return
11:30
for certain things that the
United States would commit to
11:33
do. The commitments that we were
proposed to do related to to two
11:39
items, I'm not going to go in
detail, but one of them was to
11:42
deal with the protection against
their arch enemy to the
11:46
northwest. And northeast, I
should say,
11:49
Adam Curry: Who's the arch enemy
to the north, east Northwest
11:53
northeast? Was he talking about
11:55
John C Dvorak: Saudi Arabia? The
second one
11:57
Unknown: is by providing
ammunition and material for them
12:00
to defend themselves.
Coincidentally, that's the
12:04
timeframe with this broke out. I
have no proof what I'm about to
12:08
say. But it's not unreasonable
to expect that the Hamas
12:12
understood what was about to
take place and wanted to break
12:15
it up before it happened.
12:17
Adam Curry: So he's responsible?
12:20
John C Dvorak: No, we, I think
this was actually discussed
12:24
before when Hamas did their
thing on the seventh. Biden was
12:31
in the process of, of closing
out the Abraham accords that
12:35
were set up by Trump to
normalize relationships between
12:41
Israel and Saudi Arabia, which
Rouhani is
12:44
Adam Curry: what he but he
mentioned ammunitions, he was
12:46
going to give him munitions that
was not in the initial analysis.
12:50
John C Dvorak: No, I don't
remember that either. So
12:53
clearly,
12:53
Adam Curry: the guy's no good.
But you know, as the focus,
12:57
memory is quite astounding.
13:00
John C Dvorak: So he, so today's
bonus clip is coming up. I was
13:08
watching Saki this morning. So
she's defending him and slamming
13:13
a pen into the ground. And she's
she made a big point and in my
13:20
taking, like five Trump clips,
right, well, everybody makes
13:23
mistakes. And she sews shows
clump, saying Sioux City instead
13:28
of Sioux Falls, South Dakota,
Has Trump saying and Biden is
13:32
gonna start World War Two.
13:35
Adam Curry: So hey, he's not the
only crazy old coot. So
13:39
John C Dvorak: she goes on and
on about the two of them are
13:41
both the same. And you know,
even though Trump's gaffes are
13:44
hardly at the same league as
Biden's, but she goes on to
13:48
claim that the audience she says
this, and I'm thinking people
13:51
make gaffes all the time. But
they usually don't have a staff
13:55
of people. directors, producers,
writers, people in the control
14:02
room where she says the
following 81
14:04
Unknown: year old Joe Biden is
running against 77 year old not
14:08
a sprite, Donald Trump. Whoever
you may wish was running. It is
14:12
time to settle into the fact
that there will be two baby
14:15
boomers competing for the White
House in November. That is
14:17
what's happening.
14:19
Adam Curry: Now what did she
say? 87 year old Biden? No,
14:24
John C Dvorak: she said 82 of
worry one or 82 year old white
14:27
7781
14:30
Unknown: year old Joe Biden is
running against 77 year old not
14:34
a sprite Donald Trump not a
sprite
14:38
John C Dvorak: not a sprite?
Well, you should know that.
14:41
That's not to get okay.
14:42
Unknown: Whatever you may wish
was running. It is time to
14:45
settle into the fact that there
will be two baby boomers
14:47
competing for the White House in
November. That is what's
14:50
happening.
14:52
John C Dvorak: Baby Boom get it
either, but that's why you need
14:54
a staff. If you have a staff of
people you wouldn't this
14:56
wouldn't happen. Biden is not a
baby bomber.
15:02
Adam Curry: He's from the great
generation.
15:04
John C Dvorak: He's from the
silent generation one
15:06
generation. The jet great
generation was the ones that
15:09
were in World War
15:11
Adam Curry: One to.
15:15
John C Dvorak: The point is, is
that Biden is is the only Silent
15:19
Generation president we've ever
had. Because there are a bunch
15:23
of guys that were you know, they
weren't had their parents were
15:26
probably not at war. They're
home having babies. And that's
15:32
it. He's not a baby boomer. The
baby boomers get blamed for
15:35
everything. All the silent
generation screw ups and there's
15:39
tons of them, like Biden always
pushed into the baby boomer
15:44
group and they're not they're
not baby boomers. He's not a
15:46
baby boomer. The baby boomers,
the oldest baby boomers are 77
15:51
Max, after they're born in 1946.
Biden was born in the 30s.
15:57
Adam Curry: Fire the entire
staff and Psaki get rid of him
16:01
for this horrible gaffe. I've
16:04
John C Dvorak: just it's the
point is if you're going to go
16:06
on and on and on about making
gaffes and point out that Trump
16:09
makes gaffe, and he makes give
that you don't make a gaffe.
16:14
Adam Curry: It's better for him
that way. I am in total
16:16
agreement. Let me let me lead
you into your document. Clips.
16:24
Because CBS, I think CBS was
really they were cutting they
16:27
were cutting on the on the
president,
16:30
Unknown: let's start with
President Biden having to defend
16:32
his mental capabilities
described in the report is
16:35
sympathetic, elderly man who is
well meaning that is not how you
16:39
want your president to be
perceived, no,
16:41
but he could that he leaned
right into it last night and
16:43
said, I am a sympathetic elderly
man who has a good memory. And
16:46
that
16:47
Adam Curry: that's not what he
said. He just repeated what the
16:49
report said thing
16:51
Unknown: he's got to convince
and prove to voters over the
16:54
next several months. I mean,
yesterday, in many ways,
16:57
encapsulated with so many voters
tell us they're so worried about
17:00
two guys, one who has to spend a
lot of time this year in a
17:03
courtroom, another who is
perceived as a nice guy, but
17:07
perhaps too old and unable to do
the job. And at this point, they
17:11
gotta figure out what these guys
do. I prefer to
17:13
girl's point perception is
reality, though. When it comes
17:16
to the voters, this is an
important year. And when he has
17:19
these moments for Tony, I mean,
this is this is something that
17:24
is glaring moving into this
year, and
17:26
it'd be holding a press
conference about your mental
17:28
acuity and to mix up Egypt and
Mexico. Mexico is not even in
17:31
the conversation. No questions
about Mexico. It's not the topic
17:34
of the press conference. It's
not a good look.
17:36
No. And it was all about the
boat in the southern border of
17:38
Gaza. So he went to Mexico, who
among us hasn't screwed up those
17:42
two countries before but we're
not President. Yeah. And that's
17:44
and that's the real concern that
they have at the White House
17:47
that they're going to have to
17:48
Adam Curry: do so. So my entire
analysis here, the media is not
17:52
defending Biden at all. They're
doubling down, they're cutting
17:57
in bits, where he was just
repeating what was in the report
18:00
and making it sound as if he
said that last night as an idiot
18:05
25th amendment on Deck. This is
to make him look impeachable.
18:12
Because, you know, we only need
a couple of people to jump in.
18:16
No,
18:17
John C Dvorak: no, when he did,
as far as I know, and you can
18:20
correct me if I if you know, I'm
wrong. The 25th amendment has to
18:24
be initiated by the Vice
Presidents all in with bias.
18:29
Okay, you want to I came out and
she's made big statements. Sharp
18:34
is attack.
18:36
Adam Curry: No, no, I disagree
with you. I think this is an
18:38
attack by Kamala or she's in on
it. She had a setup question.
18:43
She was doing a whole different
Spiel there. The Vice President,
18:48
I think it was at the Naval
Academy. It was about something
18:51
completely different than I'm
talking about to sit down. I'm
18:55
talking about the immediate
reaction which got most of the
18:59
press the
19:01
John C Dvorak: immediate
reaction I saw they got most of
19:03
the presses were sitting down
saying the facts are wrong Biden
19:07
sharpest attack.
19:09
Adam Curry: I want you to listen
to this and see if I can change
19:12
your mind set up question by
some rookie reporter who she
19:15
thanks profusely in the
beginning and at the end, and
19:19
then she goes on to compare
herself to the President as a
19:22
wartime president.
19:31
Unknown: I'm glad you asked.
19:33
Adam Curry: I'm glad you asked
as we agreed to beforehand.
19:38
Unknown: Listen, listen, I have
been privileged and proud to
19:43
serve as Vice President of the
United States with Joe Biden is
19:46
President United States. And
what I saw that report last
19:51
night, I believe, is as a former
prosecutor In the comments that
20:01
were made by that prosecutor,
gratuitous, inaccurate and
20:06
inappropriate, October 7, Israel
experienced a horrific attack.
20:17
And I will tell you, we got the
calls. The President and myself,
20:22
we were there. The other hours.
After that occurred together. It
20:27
was an intense moment for the
Commander in Chief of the United
20:32
States of America. And I was in
almost every meeting with the
20:37
President, I can take over
anytime I'm your war lady. In
20:40
the hours and days that
followed. Countless hours with
20:46
the Secretary of Defense, the
Secretary of State, the heads of
20:52
our intelligence community, I
was there President was in front
20:57
of and on top of it all, on top
of asking questions, and
21:02
requiring that America's
military and intelligence
21:07
community and diplomatic
community would figure out and
21:11
know how many people were dead.
So
21:14
Adam Curry: she goes on and on
and on to talk about how she was
21:17
there. She was in every single
meeting, she was there with the
21:19
heads of state with everyone
from intelligence, all the
21:22
military guys, clearly,
21:24
politically motivated, but it
was politically motivated,
21:27
circuitous, I'm a prosecutor. So
21:29
Unknown: I will say that when it
comes to the role and
21:33
responsibility of a prosecutor
in a situation like that, we
21:37
should expect that there would
be a higher level of integrity
21:43
than what we saw. Thank you.
21:44
Adam Curry: Thank you for the
question. Thank you for the
21:46
question. telling you my spidey
sense, says she's in on this and
21:51
she will be the first to say I'm
sorry, Joe, you just gotta
21:54
John C Dvorak: go. Well, that
would be entertaining. Yes, of
21:58
course. I'm actually be a first
I mean, I liked the fact that we
22:01
got a lot of first coming up
here. We have the, you know,
22:05
first indictment for glory the
second ever in history of of a
22:10
cabinet member with Mayorkas.
Yeah. And then we have the first
22:15
it's only happened once before
it was I think in the 1800s,
22:18
where you had a president that
was president than voted out and
22:22
then voted back in that would be
another one. Yeah, it'd be a
22:25
first intended use of the 25th
amendment. I was I don't have
22:29
the clip. But I was quite
disappointed. I should have gone
22:33
back and scratch scrounge up the
clip. But I was quite
22:36
disappointed in Dershowitz going
on about the 25th amendment
22:41
saying the reason that the
framers put the 25th Amendment
22:46
in place, which is his quote,
and then he went on with an
22:52
explanation for how it works. I
was quite disappointed in that
22:56
because it wasn't the framers
who, you know, George
22:59
Washington, Hamilton's it was
his amendment. These are men,
23:05
the 25th Amendment showed up
after Woodrow Wilson. Yeah,
23:09
hardly a framers?
23:11
Adam Curry: Well, unless so
there's a couple things that a
23:14
couple theories we've had, it
can also, first of all, by
23:21
invoking the 25th Amendment, we
can get him off the stage and
23:24
then we can bring in other
people to run. So it is not
23:28
necessarily that Kamala is going
to be president, but she could
23:31
be used to bring in Newsom, or
obviously there's big, big mic,
23:36
just to get him out of the way
or, or to ensure ensure and this
23:41
is our true theory to ensure
Trump is going to win. We want
23:47
Trump to win so that he can take
all the heat for all the crap
23:51
that's going to happen. Clean it
up.
23:57
John C Dvorak: Yeah, I can't get
off that thesis completely. I
24:00
also can't completely get off
the thesis that we may be
24:03
dealing with a Biden who's
actually doing the bit of
24:07
Vincent the chin Gigante,
they've had the one of the mob
24:11
bosses who played like, played
himself as an idiot peeing in
24:13
his pants walking around
Greenwich Village,
24:15
Adam Curry: I will tell you the
way he conducted himself
24:18
watching from beginning to end,
he was more like that. He was
24:22
more like a Dante, knowing what
he was doing. Yeah, he's
24:26
fumbling a bit. But, but it felt
more like that. And like he was
24:31
under attack from the inside.
Like, holy crap, I gotta get out
24:36
there.
24:37
John C Dvorak: I mean, you know,
it's funny. So I watched this
24:41
whole thing, but I watched and
then I watched the after
24:43
discussion with Peter Doocy.
Yeah, on Fox, who was
24:49
immediately after the press
conference, Ducey was was
24:54
talking to one of them I forgot
which one of the posts on one of
24:58
the shows when that when when
Biden can came out and made that
25:01
press, impromptu press
conference. And deuces
25:05
explanation of the scene was so
alien to what the host that what
25:10
I saw and what you saw what
everybody saw? Ducey says it
25:15
seemed like a cacophony because
you had all these reporters
25:20
screaming at him from all the
networks. And Ducey says it when
25:24
you were there, Biden had
handled himself well, he thought
25:29
he has a nasty remark toward
Ducey about his memory
25:34
remembering that he wouldn't
have talked to him. Yeah, it was
25:37
a kind of a try to make it a
joke and you couldn't do it.
25:41
Ducey comes out and says, No, it
wasn't like that at all. It was
25:44
pretty. It was pretty calm and
25:46
Adam Curry: collected. This is
what this is what I'm saying had
25:49
John C Dvorak: to be miked
funny.
25:51
Adam Curry: Yeah, well, the
miking is out is always bad. And
25:55
then never really good with
that.
25:57
John C Dvorak: Does it sound
like a bunch of screaming
25:59
reporters? And Ben, they had
close ups of Biden looking left
26:03
and right. Like he was confused.
Yep. That she says that he
26:07
didn't feel that he was actually
there. I'm
26:09
Adam Curry: agreeing with Ducey.
It didn't feel like the way the
26:12
packages have been had been put
together. It just you know, that
26:18
guy came out first was the same
height as Biden. He had
26:21
paperwork guy comes back, he's
crossing some stuff off. Biden
26:25
is opening up, he's he sees what
he's what he's got. He's, he's
26:28
he knows what to read. He's
still an old guy. So he flubbed
26:32
some some obvious things. I'm
not saying he, he's not worthy
26:36
of being 25th amendment ized.
But he was a lot calmer, like
26:41
the Gonti theory comes much more
into play here. So I wish we had
26:47
that clip from Ducey. I agree it
was he was being railroaded and
26:50
I think he knew it. That's why
I'm thinking Kamala has that's
26:55
the only way yeah, if you want
to do the 25th Amendment, you
26:57
have to go through Kamala and
the majority of the of the
27:00
cabinet. But then they have a
plan. This there's there's a
27:05
plan afoot. Biden doesn't want
to leave. For sure.
27:10
John C Dvorak: No, definitely
not. Here's
27:12
Adam Curry: the 40 seconds about
the special investigation.
27:18
Unknown: So the question, I
think the question for our
27:19
viewers for the American people.
Is, is Robert, her this special
27:23
prosecutor, special counsel? Is
he a political hack? Or did he
27:27
see something in his five hour
interview that he thought was so
27:29
significant, he
27:30
needed to describe
27:31
it. He is a former Republican
Justice Department official,
27:34
which is appointed Biden's
allies will continue to make in
27:37
the coming weeks. This was
somebody who has come from a
27:40
partisan or political background
and was trying to come up with
27:43
something they anticipated it
would be a scathing report. I
27:46
don't think they anticipated
this personal of a call out
27:49
there in his behavior. So much.
So the special counsel's office
27:53
went back to him and said, Could
you please remove that you've
27:55
overstepped here? Yeah. As a
prosecutor, that's not fair.
27:58
Adam Curry: I mean, this guy has
spoke written all over him. He
28:02
was top aide to Rod Rosenstein.
He was liaison to Special
28:06
Counsel Muller for the
investigation of the Russia
28:09
interference. Yeah, Trump
nominated him. But Merrick
28:14
Garland is in charge of him. I
mean, Merrick Garland. Come on
28:18
Merrick Garland. Let this guy do
this. None of that makes no
28:23
sense.
28:26
John C Dvorak: Though, that I
think is a point on your favor.
28:29
In the insofar as this is a
palace plot or whatever your
28:33
stockpile, yes, a palace coup,
the palace palace coup, a palace
28:37
coup is. So here we got the
Biden ducks analysis. This is
28:43
from NTD. I've got to four
clips. But the two of the clips
28:50
are about Russia. It's just
changes. They change the topic
28:53
on me. But it actually becomes
more interesting.
28:55
Unknown: President Biden has
addressed the Special Counsel
28:58
report on his handling of
classified documents. Joining us
29:01
now to explore the report as
well as Biden's response we have
29:05
investigative journalist Jeff
Carlson. He's also the co host
29:08
of truth over news on Epic TV. I
want to start with Biden's
29:12
documents case where a hers 350
Plus page report confirms that
29:17
Biden committed multiple crimes
and possessing that material,
29:21
saying that our Commander in
Chief quote risks serious damage
29:24
to America's national security
that included exposing
29:28
identities of clandestine CIA
officers and some of the most
29:32
sensitive of America's foreign
agents abroad. But he added that
29:35
Biden won't be prosecuted
because he's too mentally
29:38
unsound to face a trial. What
did you make of this report?
29:43
Well, there's two sides to the
report effectively, right.
29:45
There's the body of the report
the evidence that's masked, and
29:49
then there's the conclusion and
the report itself. I mean, make
29:52
money you know, and make no
mistake, it is very damning. It
29:55
provides great detail as to what
Biden did. It even covers a
29:59
little Nolan's Don't worry that
goes all the way back to 21.
30:03
When documents were at the Biden
Pen Center that walks through
30:06
the entirety of that it makes
very clear that, you know, Biden
30:09
should have been prosecuted
except for the conclusion, and
30:12
that is that Biden is not
mentally competent to be
30:16
prosecuted. And it's those
statements that are causing a
30:19
firestorm for everybody right
now.
30:23
On that note, following this
report, Biden gave a surprise
30:26
address to the nation now one
exchange that came up with this.
30:30
President Biden,
30:31
something that special counsel
said in his report, is that one
30:35
of the reasons you are not in
charge is because in his
30:38
description, you are a well
meaning elderly man with a poor
30:43
memory.
30:44
I will mean, I'm an older man,
and I know what the hell I'm
30:48
doing. I've been President, I
put this country back on its
30:50
feet.
30:52
Is your memory. And can you
continue as president?
30:55
My memory is so bad, I let you
speak.
31:00
Adam Curry: Hold on, I just had
another thought. It is entirely
31:04
possible that the M five M has
been instructed to focus only on
31:09
the memory and not on the
report, because the report is
31:12
indeed very damning. How about
that?
31:16
John C Dvorak: Oh, I like that
one. Because because I'm
31:18
thinking back on what was
reported, they are concentrating
31:21
on this. And they're downplaying
the report, the report itself,
31:26
Adam Curry: which is 300 pages
of incredible Yeah, he's
31:30
John C Dvorak: got he's giving
away
31:33
Adam Curry: doing it after he
was VP. Right. So it's possible
31:40
that all of this is just to
focus on that. And as we know,
31:43
Fox News is run by Democrats. So
here Ducey focus on this, and
31:48
the President had a punch line
for him. Yeah, which I'm not
31:52
thinking was on the history of
31:54
John C Dvorak: comedy was forced
to liberate. Well, that's
31:57
Adam Curry: what I'm thinking it
might have been written like,
31:59
you know, that's what I'm
thinking now. All of a sudden,
32:01
that's very possible.
32:05
John C Dvorak: Yeah, there, I
think that that actually might
32:08
be the answer.
32:10
Adam Curry: Well, you know, if
you don't mind me interrupting
32:12
for a second, your clip, Meet
the Press. Kristen, for some
32:18
reason need to bring in chip
Todd, chug, chug, hurry, what's
32:21
his name? Chug, chug, hurry.
And, and I think he has in this
32:28
clip, I think he has, you know,
the only plan the only thing
32:31
that they can do,
32:32
Unknown: let's talk about the
politics of this. Some of the
32:35
language in this report is just
damning. You can't get around it
32:39
an elderly man with a poor
memory. He's in the fight of his
32:42
political life. I
32:43
Adam Curry: love this. This.
This is this may be what's going
32:46
on, John, the report is damning.
He's an elderly man. How about
32:49
giving up CIA assets? Well,
32:52
Unknown: and it's also when is
it coming? Right? It's coming on
32:54
the heels of just like more of
the senators. He's accumulating
32:57
this this sort of a narrative
that is the classic death by
33:00
1000 cuts, right? You know, the,
the coal and the Helmut Kohl and
33:05
the Francoise miter on, and it's
these, these tiny little things,
33:09
and every moment, of course,
getting amplified by the right
33:12
wing noise machine. And it
certainly does. You're seeing
33:15
with this in this in this
report. There's an easy way,
33:19
though, for the White House to
basically make this report
33:23
pointless about his memory,
which is what I'm out there.
33:26
Yeah, let's see them out there
all the time. The easiest way to
33:29
get rid of this storyline is to
get them out there. Oh,
33:32
Adam Curry: yes. Get them out
there. This report, the report
33:35
is only damning because he's,
you know what, it all comes
33:39
together. Put that hey, this is
Merrick Garland, who listen to
33:43
her? Listen to me, I see all
these issues we've got going on
33:47
here, put something in there
that makes him look like an old
33:49
turd. And we'll focus everybody
on that. There's nothing about
33:55
the report itself. You're
33:59
John C Dvorak: preoccupied with
insult?
34:02
Adam Curry: And Chip, Chuck is
even saying oh, the right wing
34:06
noise machine will focus on
that, like focus on that focus
34:09
on that focus on that. And I
guarantee you the info Mavericks
34:12
will be focusing on that.
34:15
Unknown: Oh, focus? Yes, yes,
this
34:17
Adam Curry: is it. Let's go back
to the document itself. I'm glad
34:19
you have these clips.
34:23
Unknown: What's your reaction to
this exchange? Well,
34:27
I mean, first of all, you have
to consider the fact that they
34:29
felt compelled that they had to
do this press conference in the
34:32
first place. In other words,
they recognize that this report
34:36
was indeed that bad on both
sides of it, both on terms of
34:39
the evidence and in terms of
their conclusion. But think
34:43
about it this way. Biden is
either too senile to be
34:47
prosecuted, or he should be
prosecuted. Biden is either, you
34:52
know, not competent to stand
trial. But conversely, is he
34:56
competent to be president? I
mean, these are the very real
34:58
questions that determine a
Democrat The party is facing
35:00
right now.
35:01
Adam Curry: Well, now anti D is
falling into it.
35:05
John C Dvorak: It's hard not to
it's the best part. Yeah. But
35:09
it's more entertaining than
finding out that this guy is a
35:12
complete loser with all these
documents that he has scattered
35:15
all over that the photos, you
know, busted boxes, handwritten
35:20
notes. And then at his press
conference, sorry, we don't have
35:24
the whole thing. He denies it.
He says the report exonerates
35:29
him. Yeah, no. And he everything
was in luck. We locked in filing
35:33
cabinets and nothing was in
locked filing cabinet. So
35:35
they've done a good job
35:37
Adam Curry: of twisting. He said
I didn't have my staff moved him
35:39
as my staff. I can't You can't
blame
35:42
John C Dvorak: your staff under
the bus. Wow.
35:45
Adam Curry: It may it may be
this is it. The report is so
35:48
bad. And from what I've seen, it
is so bad. They didn't want that
35:52
to be the focus. Mm hmm. Huh.
Okay, brings a new
35:57
John C Dvorak: layer where you
can spike the ball later. Let's
35:59
go. Now what happens now is they
slightly changed the subject.
36:04
And it actually becomes kind of
more interesting as he talks
36:07
about Russia.
36:08
Unknown: And Now switching gears
a little bit. Fox News, former
36:10
Fox News host Tucker Carlson has
been making headlines with his
36:14
interview with Russian President
Vladimir Putin. Now there's been
36:17
mixed reactions, especially in
the media world, with even the
36:20
EU proposing sanctions on him.
What did you make of his
36:23
interview, but also the
reactions around it?
36:27
You know, I found the reactions
predictable. I think the media
36:30
is terrified both at what, you
know, Putin's demonstration of
36:33
competence is grasp of history.
But also, you know, like during
36:38
that interview, he made it very
clear that he was open to having
36:42
a negotiated settlement to the
war in Ukraine. And yet, you
36:45
know, that's been an ongoing
effort where there's a continual
36:48
demand for funds to keep funding
a war in Ukraine that's frankly
36:52
unwinnable and is always in my
estimation, anyway, it has
36:55
always been unwinnable.
36:57
Now, the Tucker Putin interview
covered a range of topics,
37:00
including AI, and even Elon
Musk. But what was most
37:02
surprising to you,
37:04
the length of it, the fact that
he was willing to there was it
37:08
was such a breadth of topics
that were covered. You know,
37:10
this, this meeting went this
interview went more than two
37:14
hours in length. Again, though,
the first thing that I
37:16
gravitated to was Putin's
throwing out there of his own,
37:19
you know, very forthright that
he wanted a negotiated
37:22
settlement to Ukraine. That's
probably the thing, first and
37:25
foremost, that grabbed my
attention, as well as the fact
37:29
this understanding of history
and that Russia, I think, as a
37:33
country is much more tied to
their history than
37:37
unfortunately, we are here in
the United States right now.
37:41
Adam Curry: I think it's correct
that NTD switches to that,
37:44
because a was also Well, time to
cover up massive coverage of the
37:50
Tucker Putin interview, there
was very little time for anyone
37:53
to do it cover any of the
content of it. And by the way,
37:56
he was very specific that Boris
Johnson was the one that went
38:00
into because I watched that
whole that was tedious to watch
38:03
the whole Tucker interview. But
Putin very exactly as we
38:07
predicted, described,
specifically, hey, the documents
38:11
were there. Boris Johnson flew
in said, no, no, no, no, you're
38:14
not, you're not going to sign
that you're going to fight. They
38:17
didn't say that in the NTD
analysis. But it was also just a
38:21
great cover up. And when you're
done with these clips, I have
38:24
some, I think some responses to
the Tucker I do
38:27
John C Dvorak: want to mention
something which is I was reading
38:31
various discussions where they
kind of pass over this this
38:37
interview with Putin and almost
everybody in the mainstream
38:40
media claims, and he started
looking into it. They all say,
38:43
Well, the thing about it is we
have to stay in this work
38:46
because Putin doesn't want to
negotiate.
38:48
Adam Curry: Yeah, which is
exactly
38:50
John C Dvorak: the opposite of
what lie. All he wants to do is
38:55
negotiate.
38:56
Adam Curry: Yes. Yes. I don't
want to go back to Poland. And I
39:00
don't want to do it. Just
listen, negotiate this thing
39:02
out. Let's do it, bro. That's my
39:04
John C Dvorak: daughter's on and
on about the Minsk agreements
39:07
where everybody was ready to
negotiate. And that was the
39:10
Boris Johnson thing I think he's
doing pulled the plug on Minsk.
39:13
Yes. And so this is just like
we're just being scammed by the
39:17
media in terms of their with the
way they're presenting stuff to
39:21
us. Well,
39:21
Adam Curry: the focus is what's
so amazing is how the focus is
39:25
put on certain things. That
again, you know, you're getting
39:29
the same clips on Twitter,
you're getting the same talking
39:33
points and focus really focus
from the from the alternative
39:37
media, what I call the info
Mavericks, like all other
39:40
lawyers talk about this with
this. I wonder how many people
39:43
actually watched all two hours
and seven minutes besides you
39:45
and I? Were all 17 minutes of
Biden, this is no longer done. I
39:53
think people just sniffing each
other's butts and getting each
39:55
other's clips.
39:56
John C Dvorak: Well, they're
there. Yeah. It doesn't take
40:00
Eugenius to watch 70 minutes of
Biden. Alright, let's go to part
40:04
two of this. And then there's
just one other aspect, which is
40:07
the kind of the most interesting
part of it. I don't know what's
40:10
going to come of it. And
40:11
Unknown: one thing that seems to
be standing out to some was the
40:13
binder that Tucker was holding.
What did you make of that?
40:17
Yes, in many respects,
especially in kind of light of
40:20
the overshadowing events
yesterday, that was the thing
40:23
that I thought was the most
interesting at the very end. And
40:27
Tucker made a point of showing
it for those that didn't see,
40:30
Tucker was given a very large
binder of documents from Putin
40:35
to bring back in. It's unknown
what's in there. But not only
40:39
did you see that at the end of
the VNA interview in the
40:41
handoff, but Tucker made a very
real point of posting that as a
40:45
separate clip, just he in the
binder alone, and without
40:48
telling us what's in there,
making very clear what it was
40:51
and pointed it out to everybody.
So a lot of curiosity
40:55
surrounding what's exactly in
all those documents.
40:58
Adam Curry: Oh, I know what's in
the binder doesn't everybody
41:00
know? I thought that was well
known. You don't see the binder
41:06
pictures of Taylor Swift.
41:09
John C Dvorak: I wonder where
you're gonna go with that.
41:14
Kennedy, he's got this binder,
which is means as soon as Tucker
41:17
gets back on the airplane, he'll
be debriefed by a bunch of CIA
41:20
guys. Russia, he's always wanted
to be as
41:23
Adam Curry: as as Putin even
pointed out, you wanted to be a
41:26
CIA guy that wouldn't have they
wouldn't have yet.
41:30
John C Dvorak: Supposedly, yeah.
And supposedly, supposedly, and
41:35
so they're gonna go over the
stuff with the fine tooth comb.
41:38
Now the problem is, is that
what's Tucker gonna do with
41:42
this? Is he going to get release
it, you know, if you release
41:46
part of it, of the binder, and
you don't release it all, you
41:50
know, Putin has got a second
copy that he can come to, here's
41:53
what they didn't release. And
this is what's important. You
41:55
know, it could be a setup or
something like for for a stunt
41:59
like that? It could be there's
it who knows, well, this is what
42:04
we're gonna find out eventually.
But the binder is swift
42:08
Adam Curry: comes into play.
It's like whatever, whatever it
42:10
is. It'll be aI generated fake.
Baby. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. That's
42:17
John C Dvorak: what you could
do. So
42:19
Adam Curry: Tucker Carlson might
be prosecuted for under the
42:22
Espionage Act and lawyer or just
as just noise, just noise. You
42:30
know, tech companies will be
testing European Union law,
42:34
regulating lies. You know, you
can't put that on the internet.
42:38
You can't put that on your
platform. It's lies. And most
42:41
importantly, I want you all to
know, Tucker Carlson is not a
42:46
journalist. He
42:47
Unknown: is not a journalist. He
is not someone that you need to
42:49
take seriously. In fact, he's
someone who there would be no
42:52
reason to take him seriously. So
he cannot be held liable for the
42:55
things that he says so to try to
couch what he's doing right now
42:58
is supposedly being being about
journalism is absolutely
43:01
ridiculous.
43:01
Tucker Carlson
43:02
John C Dvorak: is going to be
there and be the journalist that
43:04
none of us are actually
43:05
Unknown: Tucker, you are not in
journalism a long time ago.
43:08
Sure. But these days, you've
been in the propaganda business.
43:12
And yeah, journalist in quotes.
Yes.
43:14
I'm alive say his name. Yes.
Yes, I'm just his name is Tucker
43:17
Carlson. And he is the only
American journalist who has been
43:22
able to interview Putin since
the invasion in 2022. Tucker
43:25
Carlson is not a journalist. Not
even close. Why he's doing this
43:30
interview. Now, obviously, for
the Kremlin, it makes sense if
43:33
they want to talk. It's a
friendly, it's a friendly voice,
43:36
but we will keep trying our best
to actually commit journalism.
43:40
We have already decided you are
literally the worst media figure
43:44
imaginable to be doing an
interview with Russia's Vladimir
43:46
Putin. You have no journalistic
credibility.
43:49
None that I mean, he's like a
puppy dog. I find it gobsmacking
43:53
terrifying to ally and it's
clear, like we talked about, you
43:55
know, disinformation on social
media. Well, disinformation from
43:58
people like Tucker Carlson,
44:00
Adam Curry: Tucker Carlson is
lying from the streets of
44:03
Russia, no less. So he's not a
jerk. What is the journalist now
44:07
do you have to go to journalism
school to be considered a
44:11
journalist? I just want to get
this straight skinny on this.
44:15
John C Dvorak: Well, it depends
on your definition. Bloggers are
44:18
considered journalism in some
quarters. You can define it in a
44:22
lot of different ways. But
anyone who keeps a journal would
44:24
be a journalist, anyone who's a
reporter reports on something
44:27
would be a journalist to be
tactic. There's no licensing in
44:32
the United States, in some
countries to be a journalist,
44:35
for example, Brazil, you have to
have a license, maybe the
44:40
government and that's the way to
go and they would like that here
44:44
too. But no, no, you can be you
can just call yourself a
44:47
journalist and you are I would
use the term ipso facto, a
44:52
journalist, ipso
44:54
Adam Curry: facto, if you use
the word ipso facto, you are are
45:00
in fact a journalist right that
absolutely. Here's Chris Wallace
45:03
Tucker
45:04
Unknown: Carlson showed up in
Moscow this week to interview
45:06
Vladimir Putin. It turned out to
be anything but an interview.
45:11
No, Putin droned on for two
hours and seven minutes wasn't
45:15
an interview he did let him
drone on. While Tucker is out
45:17
there like an eager puppy, eager
puppy. Oh, where
45:20
Adam Curry: have I heard this
before?
45:21
Unknown: I mean, he's like a
puppy dog because he is a useful
45:24
idiot. Oh, occasionally, but
rarely. He got an a question
45:28
like this one about the power of
the deep state in Washington.
45:34
It sounds like you're describing
a system that's not run by the
45:37
people who are elected in your
telling you it's true.
45:45
But more telling them what
Tucker asked is what he didn't
45:48
ask nothing about why Putin
invaded a sovereign country.
45:53
Nothing about targeting
civilians. Nothing about Russian
45:57
war crimes. A reporter can ask
Putin a tough question. If he
46:02
wants a real interview. Listen
to this. Why is it that so many
46:06
of the people that oppose
Vladimir Putin end up dead or
46:12
close to it?
46:13
Adam Curry: So Chris Wallace
says Tucker Carlson is no good,
46:17
doesn't ask the right questions,
and then cuts to a clip of him
46:20
asking Putin a tough question. I
mean, whoa, bro, ego much.
46:27
Unknown: Why is it that so many
of the people that oppose
46:31
Vladimir Putin end up dead or
close to it? But apparently,
46:38
that's not why Tucker went to
Moscow. During the Cold War,
46:42
gullible Westerners who spread
Soviet propaganda were dismissed
46:46
as useful idiots. But calling
Tucker that is unfair to useful
46:52
idiot. Well, oh, no, he's made a
cynical affection for dictators.
46:58
And what better way to cash in
than Putin's Kremlin?
47:02
Oh, yeah. Oh,
47:03
you got butt flap?
47:05
John C Dvorak: I wonder if I, if
Chris Wallace ever asked
47:10
Hillary, that exact same
question.
47:14
Adam Curry: There was one, there
is one piece that I didn't hear
47:17
anyone talk about? A question
that wasn't even a question.
47:23
It's something I don't think it
was even a question. Because you
47:26
know, Tucker's not journalist.
But Putin had something very
47:28
interesting to say here, you
47:30
Unknown: just asked me if
another leader comes and changes
47:32
something. It is not about the
leader. It is not about the
47:36
personality of a particular
person, it that she didn't, I
47:40
had the very good relationship
with the say, Bush. I know that
47:44
in the United States, he was
portrayed as some kind of a
47:47
country boy who does not
understand much, but I assure
47:51
you that this is not the case. I
think he made a lot of mistakes
47:55
with regard to Russia, too. I
told you about 2008. And the
47:59
decision in Bucharest to open
the NATO's doors to for Ukraine
48:03
and so on. That happened during
his presidency, he actually
48:07
exercised pressure on the
Europeans. But in general, on a
48:11
personal human level, I had a
very good relationship with him.
48:14
He was no worse than any other
American or Russian or European
48:19
politician. I assure you, he
understood what he was doing as
48:22
well as others. I had such
personal relationship with Trump
48:26
as well. It is not about the
personality of the leader. It is
48:30
about the elites mindset. If the
idea of domination at any cost
48:35
based also on forceful actions,
dominates the American society,
48:40
nothing will change. It will
only get worse. Yeah,
48:44
Adam Curry: exactly. He can take
over the show. If we cut out the
48:49
pauses like I did on that clip,
he can easily take over take
48:52
over the show. Everything that
we have deconstructed. Putin
48:57
said the half hour background on
Russia was interesting. I mean,
49:02
just from a historical
standpoint, now, but no play, no
49:08
John C Dvorak: play. Yeah, it
was interesting. If you wanted
49:10
to listen to Russian history,
which
49:12
Adam Curry: I didn't have, but
you know, a little bit not all
49:15
that. But yeah, so everything
came at the right time. You
49:18
know, we had Biden making all
the noise. I think that got the
49:22
most noise from the noise
machine. I like that the noise
49:27
machine. And even then, even I
didn't even see Fox do very much
49:31
on Tucker and Putin, did you?
49:35
John C Dvorak: Actually, I don't
recall anything. And I there's
49:38
two or three shows I've watched
kind of routinely, yes. And I
49:42
don't recall them bringing it up
at all,
49:44
Adam Curry: because he's persona
non grata at the Democrat run.
49:48
Fox News. They kicked him out. I
did want to go back briefly to
49:55
the Biden thing because I would
have wrapped this up if we
49:57
hadn't gotten on a different
track about covering up the
50:00
report Smerconish. Where's that
guy from that Smerconish? Does
50:05
he have a radio show? Smerconish
must
50:08
John C Dvorak: be like a radio
reason I can't come up with a
50:11
radio guy. He
50:12
Adam Curry: had an Obama
confidant extraordinaire, David
50:17
Axelrod, on. Axelrod, who didn't
you run Obama's first campaign?
50:24
John C Dvorak: Yes. He ran
Obama's campaigns and he hates
50:27
Biden.
50:28
Adam Curry: And he's a
podcaster. Now, he's a podcast.
50:31
John C Dvorak: Is he? I don't
know. podcaster. X Files? Yes,
50:35
he
50:35
Adam Curry: has. He has a
podcast and Smerconish. Ask them
50:38
about Big Mike. And
50:39
Unknown: there's like always a
family member who says, in my
50:43
case, it's my brother. Keep your
eye on Michelle Obama. And I say
50:47
that is crazy. What should we be
saying about Michelle Obama?
50:51
Well, here's what I know.
Michelle Obama, Obama loves this
50:56
country. She's She's a brilliant
person and a brilliant
51:00
communicator. But she was a
conscript to politics. She never
51:04
was interested in a political
life. Even when Barack Obama was
51:09
a young politician. She really
didn't participate much in his
51:13
campaigns. I was with him in his
Senate campaign in 2004. I think
51:17
she showed up twice in the whole
campaign on election nights. So,
51:23
you know, she, she's not someone
who likes politics. She doesn't
51:27
like the tone and tenor of
politics. And I would be floored
51:34
if she would consent to that.
They feel that they gave 10
51:40
years of their life to this, and
I'm sure she feels as Barbara
51:44
Bush did when she said there has
to be someone other than the
51:47
bushes and the Clintons who
could be President of the United
51:50
States. My guess is that's her
attitude. I always say, Michael,
51:52
that I have as much chance of
dancing in the Bolshoi Ballet
51:56
next year, then, then that she
would be President of the United
52:00
States. And so if you see me
running around at the end of the
52:03
year in a leotard you'll know
what
52:06
Adam Curry: I was gonna say
both. I
52:09
Unknown: hear the Bolshoi maybe
once maybe once and for all.
52:13
David Axelrod just put it to
rest. Unless Cindy Adams is not
52:18
watching. Thank Thank you,
David.
52:22
Adam Curry: I think he's still
left that open. No, you might,
52:27
might be in leotards.
52:30
John C Dvorak: Yeah, the funnier
line is a two two. Yeah,
52:33
Adam Curry: I was waiting for
him. I agree. I was waiting for
52:35
him to say two two and because
he didn't say two, two, I think
52:38
he left it open. Yeah, yes. He
left it open. I'm just hedging
52:42
my buddy.
52:43
John C Dvorak: My buddy. My
buddy microdata
52:46
Adam Curry: Oh, okay, mouse,
man. Give me a break. There's no
52:50
evidence there weren't microdots
52:54
John C Dvorak: Hmm. So you get
to bring that up. We have to
53:03
talk about this, though. I think
we're done with it. Yeah, no,
53:06
I'm
53:07
Adam Curry: I'm wait. I think
we've handled Biden and Putin
53:09
and we're good to go.
53:12
John C Dvorak: I got mail in
ballots are no good.
53:15
Unknown: Republicans and
Democrats don't agree on mail
53:18
and voting. according to a Pew
Research poll. They disagree by
53:22
a lot with Republicans largely
opposed. A different poll on
53:26
mail in ballot fraud may explain
why NTDs Arlene Richards has the
53:30
details. Some
53:32
Americans don't like mail in
ballots that much, while others
53:36
like it a lot. Nationally 57% of
poll respondents favor mail in
53:41
ballots. A recent Pew Research
poll shows 84% of Democrats
53:45
favor mail in ballots, while
only 28% of Republicans favor
53:49
the practice. According to the
survey voters have changed their
53:52
views on different voting
measures in recent years,
53:55
particularly regarding voting by
mail. Four years ago, 70% of
53:59
American adults favored it. But
now only 57% do. Democrats views
54:05
on mail in ballots have remained
almost unchanged since 2020.
54:09
While Republicans have become
less fond of it, dropping from
54:13
49% to 28%. One reason for the
change in opinion may be due to
54:18
an increased likelihood of
fraud. Well, how
54:21
Adam Curry: are we going to
steal an election if we don't
54:23
have mail in ballots?
54:24
John C Dvorak: That's exactly
right. And then of course, the
54:26
part is pretty I think this next
clip, which is part two is is
54:31
incredibly underreported by the
mainstream, it's not reported at
54:35
all.
54:35
Unknown: A study conducted by
the Heartland Institute
54:38
concludes the fraud influenced
the 2020 presidential election
54:41
results. The study was based on
data obtained from the heartland
54:45
Rasmussen survey in December.
According to the survey, about
54:49
one in five Mellon voters
admitted to potentially
54:52
fraudulent actions in the 2020
presidential election. The
54:56
researchers believed the fraud
significantly impacted the
54:59
results of the ill election in
favor of Joe Biden. The report
55:03
states that if the majority of
Americans had cast their ballots
55:06
in person, Donald Trump would
almost certainly have been
55:09
reelected.
55:10
Adam Curry: So there was a poll,
which is Rasmussen, which is, I
55:13
think, usually seen as a right
wing far right poll, where
55:18
people actually admitted that
they they defrauded it. Yeah.
55:24
John C Dvorak: He ever heard
this either, have you? No, of
55:26
Adam Curry: course not.
55:27
John C Dvorak: Of course not.
55:29
Adam Curry: What I did here is
some of the oral arguments of
55:32
the Supreme Court regarding
Trump being on the ballot in, in
55:36
Colorado. So this is, this is
entertaining. Yes. The Supreme
55:40
Court discussing now. Well, hold
on a second, you guys had some
55:46
mind reader who testified that
Trump was intending to be an
55:50
insurrectionists. And on basis
of that you said, Oh, he
55:54
committed an insurrection. Now,
I think a point we brought up as
55:58
well, if you can take someone
off the ballot, because they
56:04
incited an erection. Oops, I did
it.
56:08
John C Dvorak: On purpose? Oh,
actually, I
56:09
Adam Curry: didn't. Because it's
easy to do, I guess what's on my
56:12
mind because they incited an
insurrection. You could also
56:16
make that case against Nancy
Pelosi for not having the
56:22
Capitol Police or National Guard
whatever was asked of her. And
56:28
what's good for the goose is
good for the gander. And Chief
56:30
Justice Roberts said exactly
that. If
56:33
Unknown: Colorado's position is
upheld, surely there will be
56:38
disqualification proceedings on
the other side. And some of
56:42
those will succeed. Some of them
will have different standards of
56:46
proof. Some of them will have
different rules about evidence,
56:51
maybe the Senate report won't be
accepted and others because it's
56:54
hearsay. Maybe it's beyond a
reasonable doubt whatever the in
56:58
very quick order, I would
expect. Although my predictions
57:02
never been correct, I would
expect that a goodly number of
57:07
states will say whoever the
Democratic candidate is, you're
57:11
off the ballot and others. For
the Republican candidate, you're
57:15
off the ballot, it will come
down to just a handful of states
57:18
that are going to decide the
presidential election. That's a
57:21
pretty daunting consequence.
57:24
Well, certainly, Your Honor, the
fact that there are potential
57:26
frivolous applications of a
constitutional provision isn't a
57:30
reason. Well, no,
57:30
hold on. I mean, you might think
you're frivolous. But the people
57:33
who are bringing them may not
think they're frivolous.
57:36
Insurrection is a broad, broad
term. And if there's some debate
57:40
about it, I suppose that will go
into the decision. And then
57:44
eventually what we would be
deciding whether there was an
57:47
insurrection when one president
did something as opposed to when
57:50
somebody else does something
else, when that'd
57:53
Adam Curry: be great if we only
had like 10 states that have
57:56
both on the ballot.
57:58
John C Dvorak: Yeah, that's your
That's democracy for you. That's
58:01
exactly training. Democracy.
Yeah.
58:05
Adam Curry: Man, this is great.
What a great time to be doing a
58:07
podcast.
58:09
John C Dvorak: It's podcast
time.
58:10
Adam Curry: It is it is podcast
time. It's fantastic. I'm loving
58:13
it. I'm loving it. So well, I
mean, the general consensus,
58:17
including from our
constitutional lawyer is that
58:21
the Supreme Court will reverse
the Colorado Supreme Court
58:25
decision now, if they're, I
58:29
John C Dvorak: should point out
that most of the analysts to
58:32
watch or listen to all of the
eight listened to quite a bit of
58:36
it. But it turned out to be the
liberals who are really jumping
58:39
all over this because they just
thought it was ridiculous. So
58:44
it's going to it's either going
to be eight to one or which be
58:46
Sotomayor she did was the only
one that seems sympathetic, or
58:51
nine to nothing, and this is not
even going to be close the art
58:55
are.
58:57
Adam Curry: Our constitutional
boots on the ground lawyer says
58:59
he says the odds are good that
Sotomayor will dissent. She'll
59:03
be the only one. But then of
course, the question is on what
59:07
grounds will they overturn it?
It could be multiple grounds to
59:12
make it a little fuzzier. You
know, not to just who I you
59:16
know, was not getting to the
insurrection part. Let's just
59:19
say bla bla bla bla bla bla, I
think they're gonna go for blah
59:24
blah, blah,
59:25
John C Dvorak: blah. So I have a
little clip here. That shouldn't
59:28
be tween clips.

Adam Curry: I love an entre ma
entre Manuel muse. Boosh.
59:34
John C Dvorak: I finally got a
clip of Reverend Al. Oh, good,
59:39
harder to catch now. Yes. So I
have him. He says he's talking
59:43
about my orcas and how he's
going to be another trying to
59:45
impeach me orcas, and I just
knew it'd be a matter of time.

1:00:52
If it's COVID x COVID.
1:00:54
Adam Curry: I just want you to
hear all the disclaimers in this
1:00:56
ad. This is not a good product
people excellent.
1:01:00
Unknown: It is an oral treatment

1:01:02
COVID-19 and a high risk factor
for it becoming severe.
1:01:05
It does not prevent COVID 19
symptoms are mild

Unknown: pecs a little bit but
certain medicines can lead to
1:01:30
serious or life threatening side
effects. affect how it or other
1:01:33
medicines work, including
hormonal birth control is
1:01:36
critical to tell your doctor
about all the medicines you take

1:01:41
Tell your doctor if you have

1:01:55
These are not all the possible
side effects.
1:01:57
So talk to your doctor.
1:01:58
Adam Curry: I love that this is
new. These are not all the
1:02:02
possible side effects. Talk to
your doctor. They're not even
1:02:05
disclaiming the death anymore.
1:02:08
John C Dvorak: Wow, yeah, I
liked it. I knew that is new,
1:02:12
but they can get away with it.
That's what they're gonna do.
1:02:15
Adam Curry: And they also show
the lady beginning it through
1:02:18
telemedicine. They show her on
the laptop talking to her
1:02:21
doctor. That's you know, talking
to your doctor is now real
1:02:24
thing. It's not your doctor at
some dude in Vegas, you know,
1:02:29
who also who's also a car valet.
And on the side he takes $10
1:02:33
calls and prescribes you tax
COVID It's really bad. Not good
1:02:41
products.
1:02:46
John C Dvorak: The I got another
onshore mount if you want to
1:02:49
Adam Curry: play one more, one
more. This is a Tedros. So the
1:02:53
pandemic treaty that everyone's
up in arms about now, because it
1:02:58
will give the World Health
Organization all this control
1:03:01
and which is basically turning
1:03:04
John C Dvorak: it over and
turning your sovereignty over to
1:03:06
one world government. Yes. But
the negotiators will sign it
1:03:11
will sign it.
1:03:12
Adam Curry: Oh yeah. The
negotiations are failing because
1:03:16
of the patents. So the so the
big the big pharma companies
1:03:21
like ya know, we're all in it.
But none of you we're not going
1:03:24
to give it to just every country
unless they pay. Yeah, but you
1:03:28
remember, the patent was always
the issue. Like give it to the
1:03:32
rest of the world. Now we're not
going to give it away. I mean,
1:03:34
come on, we have patents on this
stuff. We're not going to let
1:03:36
you produce it. We'll sell it to
you. So Tedros. And by the way,
1:03:40
it's no longer the treaty.
There's a new word it's, it's
1:03:43
the pandemic agreement,
1:03:44
Unknown: the pandemic agreement
is mission critical. Humanity,
1:03:48
Adam Curry: it's mission
critical for humanity agreement,
1:03:51
pandemic
1:03:52
Unknown: agreement is mission
critical for humanity. in place
1:03:57
before COVID-19, we would not
have lost so much we would not
1:04:01
have suffered so much.
1:04:04
Adam Curry: If only we had it in
place before COVID We would have
1:04:07
not lost so much on the
1:04:08
Unknown: generation that lived
through COVID-19. We have a
1:04:13
collective responsibility to
protect future generations from
1:04:17
the suffering we endured. As
young people you have the most
1:04:23
to gain from a strong agreement,
it's likely you will face
1:04:27
another pandemic in your
1:04:28
Adam Curry: lifetime. Because it
happens only once every 100
1:04:31
years. We
1:04:32
Unknown: can't know how mild or
severe it might be. But we can
1:04:37
be prepared.
1:04:38
Adam Curry: So if I may speak to
the younger generations do not
1:04:42
allow this thing to be signed.
Do not do not let these people
1:04:48
control anything. Last night we
were at a restaurant here the
1:04:52
fried Helms, the schnitzel
restaurant, which is if you ever
1:04:56
come into Fredericksburg, skip
everything go to fried helms as
1:05:00
cheap as affordable, is German
is good. And so, so our server
1:05:07
comes over. Hi everybody. I'm
Adam. And he says, you know, and
1:05:10
we're all of course, oh, US and
my name is Adam. And he says,
1:05:13
Oh, yes, respect for my elders.
And this was the first time in
1:05:16
my heart really sank. I'm like,
holy crap. I'm an old guy. This
1:05:22
is the first time that really
that's pretty insulting. Well,
1:05:25
and I said, Oh, you know, it's
1:05:26
John C Dvorak: insulting. I'm
gonna just as an aside, what I
1:05:29
think is totally insulting is
when you have a clerk calling
1:05:33
you especially you know, you're
I'm in my 70s saying, young man,
1:05:39
Unknown: that's, that's
insulting.
1:05:41
John C Dvorak: Thank you. Thank
you very much young man.
1:05:44
Adam Curry: That beat him up.
Hit him with your cane.
1:05:46
John C Dvorak: I would if I had
a cane, I should carry a cane
1:05:49
just for that purpose, you
1:05:50
Adam Curry: know, with your
walker. Well, the thing is,
1:05:53
like, Oh, dude, and then he got
he got beat read. I mean, it was
1:05:58
very, the whole thing all round
was bad. But I was just like,
1:06:01
oh, there it is. This the first
time actually just had to come
1:06:04
to terms with it. I'm an old
man. You said
1:06:07
John C Dvorak: dude. I said,
dude. No, brother, dude.
1:06:13
Adam Curry: So anyway, as an old
man, children, young generation,
1:06:16
do not let them you know, sign
this pandemic treaty agreement
1:06:21
agreement. Do not do it, do not
do it. And while you're at it,
1:06:26
have some kids please before the
1:06:29
Unknown: end of this century,
the world population will shrink
1:06:31
for the first time since the
Bubonic Plague of the 1300s not
1:06:35
because of an increase in
deaths, but because of a slump
1:06:38
in births. Across the world
fertility rate is collapsing in
1:06:42
the year 2000. It stood at 2.7
births per woman. Today it is
1:06:45
2.3. And countries are worried
including France, France is
1:06:49
asked 25 year olds to get
fertility checks. This has
1:06:53
invited massive backlash.
Meanwhile, Singapore wants
1:06:56
people to celebrate the year of
the Dragon by having quote
1:06:59
unquote, little dragons of their
own. That's what they call it
1:07:02
babies to make the concept more
interesting, perhaps, but when
1:07:05
these tactics work,
1:07:07
Adam Curry: little dragons. So
you know, we've been talking
1:07:10
about what the former New York
banker told me about the about
1:07:15
our population, that as long as
we still have people, that as
1:07:20
our population grows, we beat
every other country, most
1:07:23
notably China. So Bloomberg, two
stories today. First story,
1:07:27
immigration. Now, they don't say
newcomers, visitors, aliens,
1:07:33
illegal aliens, they say
immigration will boost the US
1:07:36
economy by $7 trillion. And
then, and then the UK, soaring
1:07:43
UK migration, which is the
people coming in on rubber boats
1:07:46
across the channel, gives hunt
that's the Chancellor of the
1:07:52
Exchequer, up to 18 billion
pound benefit, he doesn't have
1:07:57
to raise taxes. So it's working
as intended. You know, because
1:08:04
they work at or above the level
of the people who are to live
1:08:08
which means cheaper. It's It's
unbelievable. They're just
1:08:12
saying it now. So I think this
the horse has left the stable.
1:08:19
John C Dvorak: Yeah, we'll
explain this one. Here's my clip
1:08:20
immigration results. Immigration
1:08:23
Adam Curry: results. Here
1:08:24
Unknown: we go. A new
congressional report estimates
1:08:27
that the influx of illegal
immigrants will force down wages
1:08:30
in the US. This comes as
lawmakers in one state advanced
1:08:34
a bill that would extend
government funded health
1:08:36
insurance to illegal immigrants
and to his area and past our has
1:08:40
an immigration update is
1:08:42
very difficult to know with
precision, who are the, you know
1:08:46
the people and such as coming
across the border now, the
1:08:50
Congressional Budget Office or
CBO released a budget outlook
1:08:53
report for the next 10 years.
Same report estimates that
1:08:57
America's population will
increase over the next decade
1:09:00
due to immigration. This will
also take its toll on wages. The
1:09:04
report states that average real
wages are expected to be
1:09:07
slightly lower by 2034 than they
would be otherwise. Say the
1:09:11
report's most shocking
projection is that it expects
1:09:14
government debt will rise by $20
trillion in the next decade to
1:09:18
$54 trillion. Now this new
report comes just as state
1:09:22
senators in Virginia advanced a
health care bill for immigrants.
1:09:26
The cover or kits Act would
provide state funded health care
1:09:29
to all low income immigrants
under the age of 19. Now a
1:09:32
Republican state senator who
oppose the bill reportedly said
1:09:36
it would cost Virginia taxpayers
$100 million just in this decade
1:09:40
and an update on this attack on
police officers near Times
1:09:44
Square in which a group of
illegal immigrants punched two
1:09:46
officers and kicked their heads
as they were lying on the
1:09:49
ground. Seven individuals
allegedly involved in this
1:09:52
incident have now been indicted.
Manhattan district attorney
1:09:56
Alvin Bragg who doesn't often
address the public held a press
1:09:59
conference on Thursday. Stay
this assault
1:10:02
as it did to many of you sicken
me and outrage me. We all rely
1:10:08
on our members of the NYPD every
day as I said, to keep us safe
1:10:13
and keep this the safest big
city in America.
1:10:17
Greg also commented on
speculation that the suspects
1:10:20
had been caught in Arizona after
fleeing New York. He dismissed
1:10:24
those reports saying they're not
true.
1:10:26
Adam Curry: I'm gonna disregard
the last bit of the report the
1:10:28
first bit was super interesting
and because the $7 trillion
1:10:32
number comes from the same CBO
report and the health care part
1:10:37
is is phenomenally interesting
because the UK they also there's
1:10:43
a whole bunch of stories now
because it is are you going to
1:10:45
give away health health care to
visitors newcomers and in the
1:10:51
UK, they've been doing just
that. So here's the story
1:10:53
headlines sharp rise in people
waiting over 12 hours at the
1:10:58
emergency room in this is all
the NHS is the socialized health
1:11:02
care but my favorite headline I
couldn't get an NHS dentist
1:11:06
appointment for six months I had
to pull up my own tooth with
1:11:09
pliers Yes Where I live many
people don't even have teeth
1:11:15
anymore but there's a solution
solution reports the Daily Mail
1:11:20
millions will get fluoride added
to their tap water and biggest
1:11:23
expansion of controversial
scheme since the 1980s. Yes No
1:11:29
cavities but it'll make it nice
and docile unbelievable get out
1:11:35
of the UK people run Oh my my my
I'm kind of happy I'm old now
1:11:44
I'm gonna have to witness all
the all the mayhem coming. Well,
1:11:48
yeah, you can call me no code.
This is This is horrible. Really
1:11:53
is. But of course you know, just
1:11:57
John C Dvorak: to play just to
continue that clip but not a
1:12:00
continuation but just another
this is another thing doesn't
1:12:03
get reported much in this in
this in the mainstream this way.
1:12:05
I didn't know this until I heard
I think is NTD. Play this one.
1:12:10
This is the New York City new
shooting a new shooting. The
1:12:13
NYPD
1:12:14
Unknown: has revealed the
suspect in a shooting in Times
1:12:16
Square last night. A 15 year old
was arrested after allegedly
1:12:20
opened firing at a tourist
police identified the teen as an
1:12:24
immigrant from Venezuela.
1:12:27
And I gotta tell you what those
bullets hit saw accomplish
1:12:33
tonight. This is a whole
different conversation we're
1:12:36
having today. My concern our
concern the community's concern
1:12:40
is to take this on juvenile the
streets.
1:12:46
Authorities say the suspect came
to the US last September and was
1:12:50
living in a temporary migrant
shelter. According to the NYPD,
1:12:54
he shot a Brazilian tourist in
the leg inside a retail store
1:12:58
and began to shove clothing into
a bag. As he ran off he
1:13:01
allegedly opened fire again just
a fluke a few blocks away
1:13:05
attempting to lose the police
officials say he's also a
1:13:09
suspect and an armed robbery in
the Bronx last month. During the
1:13:13
shooting, the 15 year old was
accompanied by two other
1:13:16
suspects. Well,
1:13:17
Adam Curry: since we're doing
bummer news about New York City
1:13:20
and regarding regarding
replacement migration, let's add
1:13:24
one more to the mix before I
build everybody up cutting
1:13:26
Unknown: the fat that's a good
thing when we want it. But the
1:13:29
city cuts $60 million out of the
Education Department's budget
1:13:33
for school lunches. And the cuts
announced in November have
1:13:36
started impacting school lunches
across the city and is now being
1:13:40
noticed including here at this
house kitchen location home to
1:13:43
five schools and 1000s of
students.
1:13:46
A lot of kids don't eat so
they're hungry and they're tired
1:13:49
and they don't participate or
perform well in their classes.
1:13:52
It like really drains them out
at home hungry and stuff. And
1:13:55
like usually we get snack or
sometimes you don't eat or
1:13:57
there's no snack at all. When we
don't get snack you know we
1:14:00
can't we can't be doing all that
1:14:01
the city school system serves
close to 900,000 meals a day.
1:14:05
While the city still provides
meals. Secondary and alternative
1:14:08
items are phased out like
chicken fingers and french
1:14:11
fries. Mayor Adams announced the
cuts the result of the city's
1:14:15
spending on the migrant crisis.
Over the past year and a half
1:14:18
over 170,000 Migrants have come
to New York City requiring
1:14:22
housing food education and other
services that causes a cuts is
1:14:27
driving a wedge that they're
more tired.
1:14:29
They're less able to focus in
class throughout the day. They
1:14:33
have headaches or stomach aches,
they have less energy, and all
1:14:37
of that affects learning and
their ability to take advantage
1:14:41
of being in school.
1:14:41
So here's where it gets
confusing. The Education
1:14:44
Department says despite the cut
to the food budget, all of that
1:14:47
money is being replaced by
incoming funds from the federal
1:14:49
government. Parents say then it
doesn't make sense why the food
1:14:53
budget has been tinkered with
and they say food for students
1:14:56
should be the last thing that's
touched.
1:14:58
Adam Curry: All right couple
things first of all, Get out of
1:15:01
the cities. This is no longer a
safe or healthy place to live.
1:15:05
Second, they're feeding the
kids. Chicken Nuggets and french
1:15:11
fries. give your kid a sandwich.
Bologna with mayonnaise for all
1:15:15
I care. Oh, we have no snacks.
Of course not. Of course the
1:15:19
kids are slow because you've got
them addicted to sugar. Oh, we
1:15:23
need a snack. I need a snack to
get my sugar Oh app. No. There's
1:15:30
right now there's a beef
shortage in America. They're
1:15:34
they're messing with our food.
They really are. And then the
1:15:39
farmer protest is a part of that
all over Europe. I hope that our
1:15:43
farmers here eventually get in
on the action. I don't know if
1:15:46
they ever will. I'm quite
frankly, I'm surprised. But we
1:15:50
John C Dvorak: you know, it's
they're not even letting us know
1:15:52
about the farmers protests in
Europe and in the media
1:15:57
Unknown: near the village of
Doris on Poland's Ukrainian
1:16:00
border. A bitter chill hangs in
the air. Schools are furious
1:16:04
farmers have been blockading
checkpoints demanding urgent
1:16:08
change from the governments in
Warsaw. And in Brussels. The
1:16:11
source of their ire is
agricultural products being
1:16:14
imported from Ukraine.
Originally, they were meant to
1:16:17
support the Ukrainian economy
during its war with Russia. But
1:16:21
now government policies are
sparking unrest at home. Our
1:16:25
heads are on the water. We don't
have any more money to
1:16:27
compensate for our losses in
farming. It's our passion, but
1:16:31
not our livelihood anymore,
unfortunately, is still our own
1:16:35
source of income. 1000s of other
Polish farmers were expected in
1:16:38
the city of paws noun, anger
there was supposed to focus on
1:16:41
European Union climate change
policies. Opponents agriculture
1:16:45
minister said on Thursday, he
understood the challenges
1:16:48
farmers were facing. Once the
scene of gladiatorial conflict
1:16:51
Italy's Coliseum on Friday, saw
tractors driving past, Italian
1:16:55
farmers say their battle is just
as historic. We're not
1:16:59
here to protest. We're here to
make proposals. Yesterday, we
1:17:03
presented sign copies of these
proposals to the government, and
1:17:06
we're confident they will
receive us together we will see
1:17:09
if Europe still wants to Italian
farmer
1:17:11
the challenges they face are
sizeable and growing. The EU
1:17:14
last week watered down climate
commitments, apparently bowing
1:17:18
to Farmer demands that had
called them overly burdensome.
1:17:21
So they're
1:17:21
Adam Curry: basically just
chopping the farmers out,
1:17:24
they're no longer giving them
the subsidies they need because
1:17:26
they don't want to feed their
Nations. And it's cool to see
1:17:29
tractors in front of the
Colosseum in Rome, they're no
1:17:31
longer they don't want to feed
their Nations with healthy
1:17:35
products. And I consider beef to
be a very healthy good product.
1:17:39
However, even in Texas, we've
turned our ranchers into
1:17:43
commodity cowboys. And there's
only three big processing
1:17:46
plants, and you need to find a
rancher and there's plenty of
1:17:50
them beef initiative.com, which
my buddy Texas slim set up,
1:17:54
there's plenty of them around
the United States, you need to
1:17:57
go and shake ranchers hand and
say hi, I need to buy some of
1:18:01
your beef. Because right now we
in our supermarket here heb
1:18:05
that's from South America and
they put USDA prime on it. They
1:18:09
drive that shut stuff up. They
got a big cattle drive our Texas
1:18:12
Beef being sold like caviar to
China. That's it and get out of
1:18:18
the cities. buy an RV for care.
Get out, get into a small
1:18:24
community. You really need to do
this because this is the
1:18:28
problem. It's the immigration is
all it's not none of it's good.
1:18:33
But small communities can
survive and certainly innovative
1:18:37
young people can figure stuff
out. You can work by via remote.
1:18:43
John C Dvorak: Well, I'm glad
you got that clip of the farm
1:18:45
because the farmers because
they're not playing any of that
1:18:49
on PBS what they've decided to
do because they know people
1:18:52
notice protests going on in
Europe. They've decided to PBS
1:18:56
is from PBS. They've decided to
to bring it show protest the big
1:19:01
European protests in Germany as
far
1:19:04
Adam Curry: right the Nazis.
Germany AFD
1:19:07
John C Dvorak: coverage here's
PBS weeks
1:19:09
Unknown: Germans have been
flooding into streets squares
1:19:12
and parks protesting the
increasing influence of far
1:19:15
right parties. It comes as
Germany's leading far right
1:19:18
party suffered a narrow defeat
in regional elections in one of
1:19:21
its strongholds. Ali Rogen
explores the impact of this
1:19:25
increasingly tense political
atmosphere.
1:19:29
The catalyst for the protests
came from a recent report by the
1:19:31
media outlet correct teeth. It
details a meeting between
1:19:35
leaders of the far right AFD or
the Alternative for Germany
1:19:38
party and members of a separate
extremist movement. In that
1:19:42
meeting, they discussed a plan
for re migration involving mass
1:19:46
deportations of immigrants,
including some with German
1:19:49
citizenship. The AFD has since
distanced itself from the
1:19:52
meeting, but that hasn't slowed
the demonstrations. Some
1:19:55
protesters are calling for an
outright ban of the AfD which is
1:19:59
seen as As to aligned with
Germany's Nazi past. James
1:20:03
Angelos is an editor for
Politico based in Berlin. Thank
1:20:06
you so much for being here. Tell
us about who the members of the
1:20:09
AfD party are and how much
influence do they have in
1:20:12
Germany right now,
1:20:13
the party had been rising in
polls leading up to this report
1:20:16
is second right now polling
second behind the opposition
1:20:21
conservatives. So right now the
party is more popular than any
1:20:26
of the parties that are
currently in the German
1:20:28
government are three parties
making up the ruling coalition.
1:20:32
And the AfD is more popular than
all three of them. So
1:20:35
Adam Curry: I don't know if it's
in your other clips here. But
1:20:37
that in this bin unclimbable
Because all in German, there's
1:20:42
multiple investigations
inquiries, I should say, going
1:20:46
on in in German Parliament
against this collective outfit,
1:20:50
who are given money by the left
wing parties to build this whole
1:20:55
narrative that the AfD is a
bunch of Nazis.
1:20:59
John C Dvorak: You're but you're
banking on these clips? Not from
1:21:02
this guy. But yes, and that's
obviously what's going on
1:21:05
because this is a populist
party. Just like what's going on
1:21:10
everywhere else in the world,
because they're getting sick of
1:21:13
these people that are pushing
everyone around
1:21:15
Adam Curry: 40% of the world
will be voting this year and
1:21:18
big, like they'll all be
1:21:20
John C Dvorak: voting populist.
That includes Trump
1:21:27
Adam Curry: builders in the
Netherlands. Yeah.
1:21:30
John C Dvorak: And it includes
his AFD operation. Yes, who
1:21:34
Adam Curry: are who are clearly
affiliated with the Nazi past,
1:21:37
unlike, you know, people getting
arrested and not being able to
1:21:41
go to the supermarket during
COVID. Remember that? They had
1:21:45
separate ly Oh, you can't pass
the fence. You can't get you
1:21:47
can't go to the supermarket, the
Dutch. Now you've got curfews
1:21:53
which they hadn't had since
World War Two, come on. This did
1:21:59
what this is PBS that's doing
this, this PBS unbelievable.
1:22:03
Unknown: And so what is
happening politically in Germany
1:22:05
right now that is making them
more popular.
1:22:07
There has been a rise again
recently of asylum seekers
1:22:11
entering Germany from countries
like Syria and Afghanistan, and
1:22:15
they are an anti migration party
that's noticed
1:22:18
Adam Curry: the new term asylum
seekers, this is what this is
1:22:21
what the term has been in Europe
for a long time. We're getting
1:22:23
that here to asylum seekers,
their sort
1:22:25
Unknown: of core issue. There
are other issues that they're
1:22:28
taking advantage of the moment,
energy prices skyrocketed
1:22:32
following Russia's invasion of
Ukraine, inflation and economy
1:22:37
right now is sorry,
1:22:39
John C Dvorak: energy prices
have only gone up because of
1:22:42
Russia's Ukraine invasion, when
in fact, the Green Party's in
1:22:48
the greenies Deutschland managed
to turn on all the new coal and
1:22:54
nuclear and
1:22:58
Adam Curry: Putin I thought it
was Putin who did that?
1:23:00
John C Dvorak: Well, that's what
he just said. Yeah, that's
1:23:03
Adam Curry: what I'm saying was
Putin remember when Putin blew
1:23:05
up his own pipeline? Yeah. And
1:23:07
John C Dvorak: Putin blown up
his own pie. Yeah, give me a
1:23:09
break with this bullcrap.
1:23:11
Unknown: invasion of Ukraine,
inflation, and the economy right
1:23:16
now is not doing well. So there
is a general unease in the
1:23:20
population that's also helping
the party and they are
1:23:23
particularly strong in the
former East Germany, where there
1:23:27
is also more sympathy, perhaps
for taking on a friendlier
1:23:31
stance toward Russia. Oh, man.
1:23:33
Adam Curry: All right.
1:23:34
John C Dvorak: Yeah, hold on a
second to before you raise
1:23:36
anything. Yeah. The East Germans
don't like Russians know
1:23:41
Adam Curry: they were locked.
Up. So I'm like Jim Psaki. I'm
1:23:49
sure they have a real good team
of people at PBS, don't they?
1:23:52
Who can say hold on a second
man, you know that that's kind
1:23:55
of odd out of order. What you're
saying there that
1:23:57
John C Dvorak: should have been
like this guy's being
1:23:59
interviewed is from Politico. So
it should have been the hostess.
1:24:02
Yes. Who should on PBS who
should have or the what's his
1:24:06
name, the other guy who should
have asked the question, wait a
1:24:09
minute, that doesn't make sense
that East Germans generally
1:24:12
historically hate the Russians.
Now all of a sudden, they're in
1:24:15
love with the Russians. Are you
kidding me?
1:24:17
Adam Curry: So two things one,
you're bumping your mic a lot.
1:24:20
So something something is on
your standard, loose.
1:24:23
Something's loose, too. Now that
I'm officially an elder, I think
1:24:27
we just need to rebrand or like,
listen, kids were telling you
1:24:31
what to do and what not to do.
This really bugged you. Yeah,
1:24:34
did it well, didn't it just No,
it was just a realization
1:24:38
John C Dvorak: slap in the face.
No, no, it's just the tribe
1:24:41
bucket of water.
1:24:42
Adam Curry: I'm just an old guy.
I'm an elder. I'm an elder.
1:24:44
John C Dvorak: You're not that
old.
1:24:45
Adam Curry: I'm an elder.
1:24:47
John C Dvorak: Now not an elder.
1:24:51
Adam Curry: I want to be an
elder let me be you
1:24:53
John C Dvorak: will be
eventually but not till you're
1:24:55
60 Oh, at least. Oh, so we
1:24:57
Adam Curry: have what? seven
more months everybody? And
1:25:00
Unknown: of course, the flip
side of rising popularity is as
1:25:03
we've been seeing rising
opposition and more people
1:25:06
speaking out against them. So
why are these protests happening
1:25:09
now? Well,
1:25:10
the catalyst really was this
report, and combined with the
1:25:13
fact that the party has been
rising in polls, even as it has
1:25:17
grown more extreme. I think this
struck a nerve for multiple
1:25:21
reasons. This gathering, people
saw echoes of the Nazi past and
1:25:26
some politicians even called it
a Nazi Party. These protests are
1:25:30
ongoing, they're large, there's
no sign that they're winding
1:25:33
down. And the people who are
organizing them see themselves
1:25:37
really standing up for the
survival of the Republic against
1:25:41
a very immediate threat.
1:25:46
Adam Curry: Are the Germans
really this gullible? Do you
1:25:48
think though, they'll fall for
this nonsense?
1:25:51
John C Dvorak: Yeah, why not?
They fallen for shutting down
1:25:53
the nuclear power plants. I
mean, if you go along with that,
1:25:57
you have to be not only
gullible, but somewhat stupid.
1:26:01
Yeah.
1:26:02
Adam Curry: Yeah. I'm afraid
you're right. Ah, you know, when
1:26:05
Germany when Germany runs into
trouble, as they say, in the old
1:26:08
country, when when Germany
sneezes, all of Europe gets a
1:26:12
cold. Without Germany, Europe is
in big trouble. But you know, of
1:26:19
course, the EU is now limiting
cash payments. Yeah, because of
1:26:24
money laundering. There cbdc is
coming, they'll everyone will
1:26:27
get UBI they'll be the first
ones will will be able to watch
1:26:30
it from here. I'll be fun.
1:26:32
John C Dvorak: Well, as a little
aside, even though this is going
1:26:35
to undo a Germany necessarily,
and it has a little bit to do
1:26:39
with the Gaza in Ukraine. I have
to Claire daily clips.
1:26:46
Adam Curry: Oh, it's always fun
to hear from Claire. Our Irish a
1:26:50
firebrand.
1:26:51
John C Dvorak: Let's see, first
one, you know, we talked about
1:26:53
the Hungary Hungarian situation
and how the EU we went back and
1:26:57
forth, thinking who is you know,
blackmailing who when it came to
1:27:01
Hungary going along with the
program and allowing Sweden to
1:27:04
join the NATO. And Claire has a
take on this, which is kind of
1:27:12
agrees that the two of us both
of us, took different sides, but
1:27:16
she kind of does. Same thing
about both. I thought this was
1:27:19
good. I
1:27:19
Unknown: abstained on this
motion because it's the same old
1:27:22
familiar dance, Hungary
blackmails the commission
1:27:25
commission blackmails Hungary,
no doubt and cause another
1:27:29
turkey to yell at some stage and
the Commission will trade away
1:27:32
Hungarian minority rights and
judicial independence, all for a
1:27:36
few billion to backstop what
they call their strategic
1:27:39
interests in Ukraine. The rule
of law is really just another
1:27:43
weapon in the hands of this so
called geopolitical commission
1:27:47
and this type of horse trading
of course, there's problems in
1:27:50
Hungary and in many other areas
as well. But this type of horse
1:27:54
trading certainly doesn't help
poor for the US walrus Alex, the
1:27:59
people who staked their
political careers on to tearing
1:28:02
peace in Ukraine, who cares, but
reality is catching up with the
1:28:07
United States is rapidly losing
interest in the proxy war. It
1:28:11
provoked and maintained just as
it always does, Europe will be
1:28:15
left picking up this pieces just
like it always is. It's not too
1:28:19
late for Europe to play a
constructive role in what comes
1:28:22
next for Ukraine. But as long as
frail genocide is held
1:28:26
constructiveness is the last
thing we can hold for
1:28:29
Adam Curry: proud genocide.
That's better than Queen Ursula,
1:28:32
but I
1:28:33
John C Dvorak: love proud proud
genocide.
1:28:36
Adam Curry: Yeah, that's a good
one.
1:28:38
John C Dvorak: There is I have
another one where she goes off
1:28:40
the rails but she's talking off
topic, and they cut her off they
1:28:45
literally kill her mic. So
1:28:47
Unknown: far, the EU and US
response to Israeli genocide has
1:28:51
been straight from the abusers
handbook Darko deny, attack,
1:28:55
reverse victim an offender. And
if that doesn't work, you're
1:28:58
just change the subject. So as
the genocide in Gaza continues,
1:29:03
you want to talk about
everything. But Gaza, you refuse
1:29:07
to put the item on an agenda and
agenda stacked with every cliche
1:29:12
imaginable from Venezuela to
Iran with pride of place given
1:29:16
to the old reliable Russian
interference. So a conscious
1:29:22
agent seeks to signal branding
Palestine protesters as Kremlin
1:29:27
operatives like clockwork, the
dark insinuations begin in
1:29:32
Europe, everyone can see what
you're doing. It's tedious, it's
1:29:36
predictable. You've been doing
it since 2016 isn't going to
1:29:40
work anymore. The mass movement
is focused like a laser on
1:29:44
genocide. Everyone knows it's
happening. And Europe is
1:29:48
I'm sorry, this is debate with a
title and so you should stick to
1:29:54
the issue. Thank you.
1:29:56
Shut up slave.
1:30:00
John C Dvorak: I say didn't cut
her off earlier.
1:30:01
Adam Curry: Okay, so I have a
couple clips here that fit right
1:30:03
into this. We'll start with with
that last bit about the
1:30:07
genocide. Hillary Clinton is
still out there speaking. She
1:30:12
was speaking at some event with
our ambassador to the United
1:30:15
Nations. What's that lady's
name? She looks like Donna
1:30:18
Brazil kind of in a way.
1:30:20
John C Dvorak: She looks like
James Brown. Thank you very
1:30:22
much. That's my name. That's
right. The people of Libya, the
1:30:29
people the people of Syria, the
people
1:30:41
Unknown: free poster. Okay,
that's Hillary now. Okay.
1:30:55
Free
1:31:03
Adam Curry: I encouraged Clinton
think it's great. I love this.
1:31:09
And I've brought in Libya.
Hillary with the Libya thing.
1:31:14
It's a Hillary What's your name?
Hillary Daisy, what's her name?
1:31:18
She's putting her middle name.
1:31:20
Unknown: Thank you very much.
1:31:23
That's my name. No, I
1:31:25
Adam Curry: said something not
random said something. Wrong
1:31:28
click Donna. It's like this has
some other name in there as
1:31:33
another net for some reason I
brought it in another middle
1:31:36
name. I'm not sure why. Now
going back to Hungary, we have a
1:31:39
development there that is quite
interesting,
1:31:42
Unknown: off to 641 days.
Katelyn Novak's reign as
1:31:46
president of Hungary came to an
end on Saturday. After being
1:31:50
caught up in an unprecedented
political scandal. She announced
1:31:54
her resignation in a televised
address.
1:31:57
As head of state I'm addressing
you for the last time today. I'm
1:32:00
resigning from the Office of the
President of the Republic.
1:32:04
The 46 year old had come under
mounting pressure to quit after
1:32:08
it emerged that last year, she
had issued a pardon to a man
1:32:11
convicted of helping to cover up
sexual abuse in a children's
1:32:15
home, a decision that Novak
described as a mistake.
1:32:20
By his last April I chose to
grant a pardon believing that
1:32:24
the convicted offender had not
abused the vulnerability of the
1:32:27
children in his care. I made a
mistake.
1:32:31
Novak's decision to quit comes
after a week of public outrage,
1:32:35
with 1000 demonstrators rallying
outside the president's office
1:32:38
on Friday, demanding her
resignation. Novak is a key ally
1:32:43
of Prime Minister Viktor Orban
serving as Vice President in the
1:32:46
ruling Fidesz party between 2017
and 2021. becoming the first
1:32:51
woman to be elected president of
Hungary in 2022. So
1:32:56
Adam Curry: I'm not quite sure
how to interpret this but
1:32:58
because or ban you know, he just
he got a lot of a lot of what he
1:33:05
wanted by agreeing to the 50
billion euro package for
1:33:09
Ukraine. I'm thinking she might
have been a stooge on the inside
1:33:15
and he wanted her out. So now
now he has full power without
1:33:19
unless he replaces her that that
whole situation like as she led
1:33:26
a she let a child abuser go and
it was a mistake. Yeah.
1:33:31
Something up with something very
strange.
1:33:34
John C Dvorak: Yeah, something's
up with Hungary by the way.
1:33:36
Adam Curry: It's Hillary Diane
Rodham Clinton there. There's a
1:33:39
reason why they threw in the
Diane which I'm not sure why
1:33:43
he's that extra insulting to
her. I didn't know that. By the
1:33:46
way. I only knew Hillary Rodham
is the Hillary Diane is there's
1:33:49
something I never heard
assaulting about that. There's a
1:33:53
reason I'm sure. Anyways,
Alinsky is very happy with the
1:33:58
with the package. He's got a big
package from from your well,
1:34:03
he's not entirely happy. We need
a little more.
1:34:06
Unknown: I'm grateful for your
decision on the financial
1:34:09
instrument for for us. For our
people for Ukraine, Ukraine
1:34:15
facility with 50 billion euros
for a four year period. This is
1:34:20
a clear signal that Ukraine will
withstand and that Europe will
1:34:25
withstand. It is also really
important that this decision was
1:34:30
taken unanimously by all all of
you all 27 Member States and it
1:34:37
is yet another clear sign of
your strong unity and support of
1:34:44
Ukraine. Intelligence confirmed
that Russia will receive a
1:34:47
million artillery shells from
Pyongyang. Meanwhile,
1:34:52
unfortunately,
1:34:53
Adam Curry: Russia is getting
missiles from North Korea okay
1:34:56
Unknown: receive a million
artillery shells from artillery
1:34:59
shown young Hunger meanwhile,
unfortunately I'm the
1:35:02
implementation of the European
plan to supply 1 million
1:35:05
artillery shells to Ukraine is
being delayed. These two is a
1:35:11
signal of global competition in
which Europe cannot afford to
1:35:16
lose. And that's why today your
unit is so needed in creating
1:35:21
the Ukraine Assistance Fund
within our European peace
1:35:27
facility.
1:35:28
Adam Curry: So he wants to build
up the European facility in
1:35:35
Ukraine to build missiles. I
mean, shells ammunition Yeah,
1:35:42
John C Dvorak: these are what
those shells are you at the
1:35:44
American taxpayer pays for one
of those 155 millimeter shells
1:35:48
and let me let
1:35:49
Adam Curry: me guess let me
guess what for one, one, I'm
1:35:53
gonna say $30,000.
1:35:55
John C Dvorak: Dollars. No, but
it's still not cheap there fuck
1:35:59
between five and $8,000 a shell.
And
1:36:05
Adam Curry: 10 Let's just call
it 10. So that's well, they're
1:36:09
even
1:36:09
John C Dvorak: more toward the
five the eight come later, okay.
1:36:12
But most of them are sold by
middlemen and bought in Bulgaria
1:36:17
for 500 bucks apiece.
1:36:20
Adam Curry: We're in the wrong
business. Man, that's good.
1:36:26
John C Dvorak: The Bulgarians
make a lot of shells and they
1:36:28
sell it for 500 bucks. And we
sell them for 5000 to $8,000
1:36:33
apiece.
1:36:34
Adam Curry: Oh goodness.
1:36:35
John C Dvorak: And who are we
selling them to? We're selling
1:36:37
them to the American taxpayer?
Yes.
1:36:41
Adam Curry: Yes, this is what we
do. You talking about? This is
1:36:43
good. This is good. You had a
fun little thing in the
1:36:49
newsletter about sunny Austin.
1:36:53
John C Dvorak: Sunny Austin and
I its words you get some clips.
1:36:57
Adam Curry: I do have some
clips. I have some I'd love to
1:37:00
hear.
1:37:00
John C Dvorak: I mean, the clips
are funny. I didn't get any
1:37:02
clips was sunny. Just as a
backgrounder sunny Hostin, who
1:37:06
purports to be a black woman.
slave descendant turns out to be
1:37:12
the descendant of Spanish. She
nudged you look at you. So yeah,
1:37:15
she looks like a dark skinned
Spanish woman. She turns out to
1:37:18
be a descendants of Spanish
slave holders.
1:37:24
Adam Curry: Well, so a little
more background, as we discussed
1:37:28
what Moe said. All of these
women just call them black
1:37:33
women, who are all pushed to the
front. Dei. Here you go.
1:37:39
President of Harvard, Joy read
at MSNBC, Fannie, Fannie Willis,
1:37:46
but also sunny Austin mo called
Draw specifically said, now they
1:37:50
have to show that they're that
they were the right choice. The
1:37:53
meritocracy part is coming in
now. And this is just right on
1:37:57
cue, an amazing takedown of this
woman by PBS. Here's a tip. You
1:38:04
should never go on the show
finding my roots. This is a dumb
1:38:09
idea. I wouldn't do
1:38:10
Unknown: it Sonny's roots in
Agra dia. We're about to connect
1:38:14
her to some painful history. Our
researchers discovered that our
1:38:20
third great grandfather for
Maine was the son of a merchant
1:38:24
who was likely involved in the
slave trade. And for me and
1:38:29
himself, owned at least one
human being. What's more, moving
1:38:36
back on this line, we found that
it originates in glitziest,
1:38:40
Spain, evidence of Sonny's
deeper ancestry and her family's
1:38:47
ties to Spain's colonial past.
What's it like to learn this
1:38:53
tangible connection to Spain?
1:38:56
I married a Spaniard Spanish
Ovation There you go. Wow. Well,
1:39:03
I'm I'm in a little bit of
shock. I just always thought of
1:39:06
myself as Puerto Rican, you
know, half Puerto Rican. I
1:39:10
didn't think I was my family was
originally from Spain and
1:39:14
slaveholders
1:39:17
feeling my friend
1:39:19
I just like crime. I think it's
actually pretty interesting that
1:39:25
my husband and I have shared
roots. Yeah. So I do appreciate
1:39:29
that. And I think it's great for
our children to know this
1:39:33
information. I guess it's a fact
of life. That this is how some
1:39:40
people made their living on the
backs of others.
1:39:43
Adam Curry: So a couple of
things have no I love the term
1:39:45
owned a human. I love that not a
slaveholder owned a human but
1:39:51
we're not done yet. You still
gotta mama. We gotta we gotta
1:39:54
pull apart. What's
1:39:56
Unknown: more, Sonny's own DNA
testifies to an even greater
1:40:01
connection. Almost a quarter of
her admixture is from the
1:40:05
Iberian Peninsula. Oh, no effect
that took Sunni by surprise.
1:40:12
I mean, I had no idea of the
Spanish roots to this extent.
1:40:18
I'm still sort of shocked about
the depth of the ties, I guess.
1:40:24
What do you say? All these white
people just came up on the
1:40:26
ground? He hasn't come from
somewhere.
1:40:29
I'm surprised. I mean, my
mother's family does look white.
1:40:35
So
1:40:35
when you gotta get spanked
1:40:38
just the colonization of other
people owning humans. But you
1:40:46
know, I'm I'm surprised that
they were in slavers, actually.
1:40:49
Yeah. That's disappointing. And
that's a
1:40:52
lot to do. Yeah. Has it changed
anything about the way you think
1:40:56
of your mother?
1:40:59
No. My mother certainly
identifies as Puerto Rican,
1:41:04
right. And non white actually,
1:41:10
Adam Curry: identifies,
identifies as Puerto Ricans hate
1:41:13
Unknown: this for her.
1:41:16
She's gonna see how deeply white
1:41:21
Adam Curry: Oh, no, your mama
deeply white? Oh, no. So, of
1:41:26
course, this doesn't make Sonny
Halston a slave owner or make
1:41:31
her a bad person. Other than
that, she's always been calling
1:41:35
for reparations. And I would say
that she seems to have gotten
1:41:39
some nice gigs, a whole
production deal based on her
1:41:42
black oriented TV, documentaries
and projects. So let's go to the
1:41:47
View. And let's talk it out,
shall we? So
1:41:56
Unknown: we're starting a little
differently this morning, sonny?
1:41:59
You were just on an episode of
finding your roots with Henry.
1:42:07
Yeah, and he gave me some
surprising revelations about my
1:42:11
family history. You know, I was
really reluctant. I don't know
1:42:14
how you felt when you did it
with me. But I was really
1:42:16
reluctant to do it. Because I
just sensed that there could be
1:42:22
something in my family set up.
History. That would be
1:42:26
disappointing. Disappointing.
1:42:28
Adam Curry: I'm so disappointed
in my disappointed I'm
1:42:31
Unknown: white.
1:42:33
Negative. Yes, I
1:42:35
John C Dvorak: am. Oh, shit
anymore.
1:42:37
Adam Curry: What did you say?
What did you say? I
1:42:41
John C Dvorak: said, I'm so
disappointed. I'm white, because
1:42:43
I can't leverage my bullshit
anymore. Disappointing.
1:42:49
Unknown: Negative, negative?
Yes, I thought I was gonna have
1:42:52
that kind of moment. And skip
had asked me to do it for a long
1:42:54
time. And I finally just who
1:42:56
Adam Curry: is skip? And why are
you friends with him tighter to
1:43:00
do it?
1:43:00
Unknown: Because I thought it'd
be helpful for my children and
1:43:03
my children's children to know
what their real history was, you
1:43:05
know, but what I found out was
that my mother's family while
1:43:11
they are Puerto Rican, they
actually originate from Spain.
1:43:14
And the reason that they moved
to Puerto Rico is because the
1:43:17
slave trade had been sort of
canceled in Spain and then
1:43:22
Curacao, and then they moved all
of their slaves to Puerto Rico.
1:43:26
And so the business the family
business, I had been told that
1:43:29
they were printers and
journalists, but they were in
1:43:31
fact, in slavers. In
1:43:33
Adam Curry: slavers, not slave
owners in slavers have
1:43:38
Unknown: my mother fell over the
deeply disappointing point. And
1:43:43
it's deeply disappointing
because my mother really
1:43:45
identified as Puerto Rican. She
was part of the civil rights
1:43:50
movement. And she was deeply
ingrained in black culture and,
1:43:58
and identified herself as black
for race. But
1:44:02
Adam Curry: what does she
identify as Puerto Rican black?
1:44:05
What was she 70?
1:44:07
Unknown: Hispanic for ethnicity?
But her race is white. She's
1:44:11
European. Yeah. I know. It's
weird because when you look at
1:44:15
her, my mother is blonde and she
has light eyes and my whole
1:44:18
family looks like that.
1:44:19
John C Dvorak: But she can be
black.
1:44:21
Adam Curry: The thing is, Okay,
so first of all, this identifies
1:44:23
as is Sunni. It's okay. You
didn't own humans. You It's
1:44:28
okay. It's okay. Words. Whoopie
calls it a bummer
1:44:33
Unknown: slave thing is a
bummer. It's about I'm sorry.
1:44:36
Adam Curry: Whoopie. Bae hard
hit the bomber
1:44:41
Unknown: I slave thing is
1:44:42
Adam Curry: a bummer. It's a
bummer. Your face is a bummer.
1:44:45
And I think enrolling
1:44:48
Unknown: creations by the way,
so y'all can stop texting me and
1:44:51
emailing me and saying that I'm
a white girl, and that I don't
1:44:53
deserve reparations. That's I
still believe
1:44:57
you I don't know who said her.
In telling her she was a white
1:45:01
girl. Okay, it's it's it's too
much people clean off your
1:45:06
television screen. Yeah, it's
six. That's a lot.
1:45:08
So I still believe in
reparations. I still believe
1:45:12
this country has a lot to do in
terms of racial justice. But
1:45:16
what I will say, Sarah, to your
question is that I feel that I'm
1:45:22
enriched by knowing
1:45:24
Adam Curry: that history you
want of us girl,
1:45:28
Unknown: I'm enrich. And I'm
enriched by knowing that my
1:45:30
family has come so far from
being in slavers to my mother
1:45:34
marrying my father. Oh, I
1:45:37
Adam Curry: see. As long as you
marry someone black, it's okay.
1:45:41
If your ancestors were a slave
holder, I feel enriched and
1:45:45
rich. You're not responsible for
the slaves in Oh, you're not
1:45:49
responsible for what they did?
She says, Well, I'm what
1:45:52
Unknown: I did. And I was hoping
they'd find out was related to
1:45:54
Mussolini or something. Like
that came up. My
1:46:00
Adam Curry: word.
1:46:01
John C Dvorak: Can't Rachel
Dolezal or whatever name it
1:46:04
comes to mind.
1:46:05
Adam Curry: I mean, can't you
just can't you just say, Hey,
1:46:07
okay, it's all right. You know,
it's all right. You're not
1:46:11
responsible for for something
that happened hundreds of years
1:46:15
ago. You know, but you do have
to pay now obviously, sonny, you
1:46:19
got to join in the payments, and
you can't take any payments
1:46:23
because you're white deeply or
moved to San Francisco. Maybe
1:46:28
you can still get a good deal
1:46:29
Unknown: controversial, Kaylee
for two reasons. One people
1:46:32
receiving your tax dollars with
no requirement they work and
1:46:36
secondly, should they be getting
that money based solely on skin
1:46:39
color. The lawsuit says San
Francisco and California
1:46:42
illegally give out millions each
year to minorities and trans
1:46:46
women based solely on race and
gender identity through these
1:46:50
three programs. The black
economic equity project hands
1:46:54
out 500 A month exclusively to
young Black Bay Area residents.
1:46:58
The guaranteed income project
for trans people that pays 1200
1:47:03
hours a month provided black,
indigenous Latino and
1:47:08
transgender right and the
abundant birth project gives
1:47:11
$1,000 a month solely to
pregnant black and Pacific
1:47:15
Islander women. Each
1:47:16
of these three programs
qualifies and disqualifies
1:47:19
individuals from participation
and benefits based on their
1:47:23
race. That's what they do.
1:47:26
The birth project defends the
age saying black Pacific
1:47:29
Islander women have higher rates
of premature birth.
1:47:33
This risk is primarily due to
racism, both structural racism
1:47:37
and the racism that birthing
people and mothers experience
1:47:41
when they're interacting with
physicians and other medical
1:47:43
providers. Still,
1:47:45
critics say it's illegal to
exclude white and Latino women,
1:47:48
especially those with higher
risk of complication. Now Mayor
1:47:52
London breed supports all three
programs, though none require
1:47:55
work example. The $1,200 stipend
will be provided to participants
1:48:00
so they may focus on their basic
physical and mental health and
1:48:04
wellness without worrying about
income according to gift. So all
1:48:08
three programs Kay Lee declined
interviews. The Mayor's office
1:48:11
says the programs are legal and
they look forward to going to
1:48:14
court. Yeah,
1:48:16
Adam Curry: the answer of course
is not to take that money away
1:48:18
but to give it to all people.
California UBI incoming Ah,
1:48:26
yeah, we
1:48:27
John C Dvorak: got nothing but
money here.
1:48:28
Adam Curry: Yeah, you guys are
loaded on the board trains
1:48:31
Unknown: good. Planes bad.
1:48:35
Adam Curry: Oh, such a
controversy, controversy. Oh my
1:48:39
goodness, we have to weigh the
passengers. Oh, we need weight
1:48:44
and balance. Everybody's all up
in arms about fin air. This
1:48:48
morning
1:48:49
Unknown: the Scandinavian
airline fin air inviting
1:48:51
passengers to be weighed in
along with their carry on
1:48:54
baggage. The airline says the
goal is to collect anonymous
1:48:57
data on average weight of
passengers with their hand
1:48:59
luggage for the purpose of
aircraft balance and performance
1:49:02
calculations that are needed for
the safe operation of flights.
1:49:06
So far. 600 passengers have
volunteered for the survey,
1:49:09
airlines use an average for male
and female and for summer and
1:49:13
for winter. And you need to
correct those every now and then
1:49:16
especially if the population has
gotten a bit more punchy. It
1:49:19
turns out the airline has been
doing this since 2018. And it's
1:49:22
completely voluntary. It's not
uncommon for some international
1:49:26
airlines to do wait surveys
every few years required by
1:49:29
their governing bodies every
five years you figured the
1:49:32
population changes a little bit
weight. And that's why these
1:49:35
chests are needed. And Finn air
is not alone Air New Zealand
1:49:39
weighed more than 10,000
passengers last June air in New
1:49:42
Zealand calling the survey
essential to the safe and
1:49:45
efficient operation of the
aircraft and that the pilot
1:49:48
needs to know the weight and
balance of a loaded plane before
1:49:51
takeoff. And Korean Air did it
in the fall saying collecting
1:49:54
this data was crucial for the
safety of flight operations. It
1:49:58
is
1:49:59
Adam Curry: just a survey It's
opt in. But of course, you know,
1:50:01
this is just crazy. We can, we
can, this is 20 Another
1:50:05
John C Dvorak: way I feel about
it go. People should be charged
1:50:13
based on their weight.
1:50:15
Unknown: And again, this is
completely voluntary. Nobody has
1:50:17
been forced to step on a scale
but when this happened it of
1:50:20
course certainly triggers a lot
of good questions, maybe even
1:50:23
some anxiety from a lot of
people. But Robin, you had a
1:50:25
good solution, just put the
whole plane on a scale.
1:50:31
Volunteer means you're not
getting the information that you
1:50:33
need. So when everybody's on
board, isn't there some way
1:50:36
technology you can I mean, 2024
we can figure that out. Because
1:50:41
as John said, we're getting
punchy.
1:50:48
Adam Curry: Do Yeah, so we put
the whole plane on a scale note
1:50:51
the weight and balance is
incredibly important. We
1:50:55
understand your your take on it.
Now. I'm going to connect this
1:50:58
to another story which is a
director of the story, but
1:51:01
weight and balance is very
important people.
1:51:04
Unknown: The investigation is
just getting started into a
1:51:06
helicopter crash in San
Bernardino County that killed
1:51:09
six people. The crash happened
around 10 o'clock last night
1:51:12
east of the 15 freeway near hell
Lauren springs. The crash site
1:51:16
is known for an abandoned gas
station with a sign that says
1:51:20
low gas and eat. It's very close
to the California Nevada border
1:51:23
about the 80 miles better effect
from Las Vegas. The Eurocopter
1:51:27
EC 120 took off from Palm
Springs airport was headed to
1:51:31
Boulder City, Nevada, but it
never made it. The CEO of one of
1:51:35
Nigeria's largest banks was on
board. Herbert Woodway, was
1:51:40
killed along with his wife and
son. Their identities were
1:51:43
confirmed by an official with
the World Trade Organization.
1:51:46
The National Transportation
Safety Board is on scene to lead
1:51:49
the investigation. One thing to
look at is the weather
1:51:52
conditions.
1:51:54
It was reported by witnesses
that there was rain with some
1:51:58
wintry mix. We currently have a
meteorologist working on our
1:52:03
team and we're working to
analyze and get the exact
1:52:07
weather conditions at that time.
1:52:09
The helicopter was not equipped
with either a flight data
1:52:12
recorder or a cockpit voice
recorder. A preliminary report
1:52:15
on the crash will be released in
a couple of weeks. The final
1:52:18
report could take anywhere from
12 to 24 months.
1:52:21
Adam Curry: So the banking CEO
was on his way to the Super Bowl
1:52:25
that was or at least that's the
report. This is interesting to
1:52:28
me because in 2001 I owned a
Eurocopter 120 I know a lot
1:52:33
about it. I've flown it myself.
No doesn't it's this is a
1:52:37
relatively it's a single engine
turbine helicopter. It's quiet
1:52:42
because as the patented
Eurocopter enclosed fin for the
1:52:46
tail rotor does not have a data
recorder for flight cockpit
1:52:50
recorder. It actually runs on
Windows NT which I never liked
1:52:54
when you start the helicopter.
You got to boot screen for NT
1:52:57
3.1. But the second report,
which is a report which is I'm
1:53:02
going to presume the reporter
got the information from the
1:53:06
from the from the charter
company tells me something was
1:53:10
very wrong,
1:53:11
Unknown: I would assume is
Reporter Lee and Souter joins us
1:53:13
live from Burbank with the
latest on the investigation.
1:53:16
Leanne
1:53:18
Tory that helicopter was
operated by Orbitz air base here
1:53:22
at the Burbank airport of pilot
as well as the Safety Pilot
1:53:26
we're on board along with four
passengers one of them the head
1:53:30
of a major Nigerian
1:53:31
Adam Curry: bank. Okay, this is
a five seat helicopter pilot
1:53:36
copilot or she called Safety
Pilot and three in the back if
1:53:39
there were four passengers you
are overweight so besides flying
1:53:44
in wintry conditions, some
somebody did something very
1:53:48
wrong here and I will wait for
the NTSB report or maybe they're
1:53:52
just full of crap and they don't
know. But it makes and also
1:53:56
Safety Pilot. That's usually
when when an owner is flying
1:54:00
himself the whole thing is
sketchy or they just wanted to
1:54:03
kill
1:54:04
John C Dvorak: it was sketchy to
me is there's a dead banker
1:54:07
Adam Curry: who just wanted to
kill a banker as possible
1:54:10
John C Dvorak: as possible. A
Nigerian yes a
1:54:13
Adam Curry: day record. Today
record is not good. So he has
1:54:17
John C Dvorak: something to do
with the Nigerian banking scheme
1:54:19
couldn't be and he is murdered.
1:54:21
Adam Curry: I think I think I
got an email from him some
1:54:24
point.
1:54:25
John C Dvorak: I got one too.
Funny thing.
1:54:27
Adam Curry: Hey, do you remember
that report? Was it your report
1:54:30
about the heads? Like some some
outfit where they just had heads
1:54:35
on tables? You remember that?
1:54:38
John C Dvorak: heads on and
tables? You're thinking that
1:54:39
Futurama
1:54:41
Adam Curry: No no, no, no, no,
there was some report you had we
1:54:43
were laughing I think we even
became a show title. It was like
1:54:47
the guy had heads every heads
cut baby's heads cut off or
1:54:50
something.
1:54:52
John C Dvorak: Oh snap one of my
gruesome reports. Well, then
1:54:55
here's
1:54:55
Unknown: mine. The biological
Resource Center was essentially
1:54:58
running a chop shop up for human
body parts mixing, matching and
1:55:03
selling them in ways we've never
heard of, until tonight
1:55:06
described as unsettling, but it
sounds a whole lot worse one FBI
1:55:11
agent revealing what it was
really like inside the Phoenix
1:55:14
body donation facility. In 2014.
He saw everything from buckets
1:55:19
of heads, arms and legs to
coolers filled with severed
1:55:23
penises when the FBI raided the
building
1:55:26
confused and angry. We thought
this was going to be doing some
1:55:29
good he
1:55:30
even thought it a smaller head
sewn onto a larger torso in a
1:55:35
quote Frankenstein manner
1:55:37
he wasn't nutrients we made
wasn't a choice the needs of
1:55:40
families made
1:55:41
body parts piled on top of each
other inside biological
1:55:44
resources. Were families donated
their loved.
1:55:48
John C Dvorak: Yeah, what was
the name of this restaurant
1:55:50
again?
1:55:51
Unknown: In a quote Frankenstein
manner,
1:55:53
it wasn't nutrients we made was
an interesting use of families
1:55:57
made body
1:55:58
parts piled on top of each other
inside biological Resource
1:56:01
Center, where families donated
their loved ones for medical
1:56:05
research, discoveries
1:56:06
of sickness and disease, maybe
come up with a cure.
1:56:11
Some say the company violated
everything they promised tragedy
1:56:15
that's never resolved, and it
just keeps going on and deeper
1:56:19
and deeper
1:56:19
dilemmas. According to that
agent with no apparent
1:56:22
identification. The company sued
months after the FBI raided
1:56:26
families claiming their loved
ones weren't treated with
1:56:29
dignity and respect, a promise
written on their own consent
1:56:33
forms. The company also accused
of selling body parts for profit
1:56:37
after saying they'd only use the
parts they needed and would
1:56:40
cremate the ones they didn't and
return them a torso with a head
1:56:45
apparently went for 2400 bucks
bargain a leg about 1100 Didn't
1:56:50
even sell knees and feet alone
for under 500. News everyone.
1:56:58
Adam Curry: Man, what is going
on in Phoenix?
1:57:02
John C Dvorak: This is a weird
story. I'll give you a clip of
1:57:06
the day for digging that went
out. Thank
1:57:08
Adam Curry: you. This one
deserves a lot more attention I
1:57:10
think. I want to know who was
ordering a body with a smaller
1:57:16
head sewn on. On what is
1:57:20
John C Dvorak: a whole bucket of
penises. I think that's a good
1:57:22
one and we're worried
1:57:23
Adam Curry: about Jeffrey
Epstein. What's going on in
1:57:25
Phoenix people what is
happening? What is going on?
1:57:30
That's just just I think we need
to go look at Taylor Swift.
1:57:33
Unknown: We all need to calm
down and I'm not talking about
1:57:36
the podcast I'm talking about
having Taylor Swift here. Yeah,
1:57:40
Adam Curry: my goodness. Hey, I
have a Super Bowl Super Bowl
1:57:43
clip, Super Bowl clip bought a
sports ball and then we can talk
1:57:46
about the big games.
1:57:48
Unknown: In a metropolis once
known as Sin City. The biggest
1:57:51
sin heading into Sunday evening
Super Bowl is not knowing that
1:57:56
this guy number 87 Is the
boyfriend of Taylor Swift.
1:58:00
Number 87 has a name Travis
Kelce. Star in American football
1:58:04
tournament for the Kansas City
Chiefs and a star for answering
1:58:08
repeated questions about his
love life.
1:58:10
Why do you think everyone's so
fascinated with you too? I think
1:58:15
the values that we stand for and
just you know who we are as
1:58:18
people.
1:58:19
Kelsey support extends to Taylor
Swift Fans Swifties half a world
1:58:23
away. Tokyo hosted the last of
four sold out concerts Saturday
1:58:27
evening.
1:58:29
Adam Curry: Monday we hadn't
really watched American football
1:58:32
until now. But because Taylor's
boyfriend place finally watched
1:58:36
it.
1:58:37
Unknown: We did the question on
so many lips after this last gig
1:58:41
and Tokyo will a private plane
get her back in time to as she
1:58:45
has in the past. Join other
players girlfriends wives and
1:58:49
family for the game WAGs she
should make it and that's good
1:58:52
news even for those who don't
count themselves as Swifties
1:58:56
John C Dvorak: she will be in
the house in the building for
1:58:58
the Super Bowl but I mean, I
love I
1:59:02
Unknown: think her attending
will bring in new eyes to the
1:59:04
sport I
1:59:04
think there will be a lot of
women who will probably shift
1:59:07
their attention to football
1:59:09
we should all be so lucky that
we'd have a significant other
1:59:12
wanted to support us in our job
right.
1:59:16
Adam Curry: It would be nice if
our families listened to our
1:59:18
show John right. Be honest about
it. Yeah,
1:59:22
John C Dvorak: well yeah,
sometimes they do.
1:59:24
Adam Curry: So I like I liked
that they they brought the WAGs
1:59:28
acronym to America. Although
they sit in reverse order, you
1:59:33
know in the UK, it's always WAGs
wives and girlfriends. She's now
1:59:37
a WAG I think we should we
should perpetuate that mean wag
1:59:46
so yeah, I think NFL benefits
there's it's good very very good
1:59:50
progress.
1:59:51
John C Dvorak: It was done as a
publicity stunt. Let's face
1:59:52
reality.
1:59:53
Adam Curry: Well, shall we get
into the bedding because I've
1:59:56
learned a lot from CBS evening
news about proper bets and then
2:00:01
no prop
2:00:01
John C Dvorak: bets only maniacs
take dose. If this
2:00:04
Unknown: was the Super Bowl of
news stories, I bet anything
2:00:08
that people would bet on
anything from how many words
2:00:12
I'll say to whether I'll gesture
bar with my left hand or my
2:00:16
right. And when I eventually
throw this ball will make dog
2:00:20
catch it. These are called prop
bets. And in football, it means
2:00:24
betting on anything other than
the final score of the game. How
2:00:28
big is this gotten? It's gotten
much, much bigger than than even
2:00:32
the game. Rufus Peabody is a
professional better, and co
2:00:36
founder of unabated sports. Why
do you think the proliferation
2:00:40
of this? I think because people
have shorter attention spans now
2:00:44
than they used to? We want the
game to be more like a slot
2:00:46
machine and we do a sporting
event. To that end, you can now
2:00:51
bet on how long the national
anthem will be. Whether or not
2:00:55
someone will miss an extra
point. Will Taylor Swift be
2:00:59
caught on camera wearing a foam
finger? Will she wear red
2:01:03
lipstick, or some other color?
And my personal favorite when
2:01:07
the game ends? What shade of
Gatorade will get dumped on the
2:01:11
winning coach? What color will a
Gatorade bath be? Grown men have
2:01:16
actually been debating this all
week. Young people like blue
2:01:19
Gatorade,
2:01:20
although orange orange has moved
down to plus five hundreds.
2:01:23
And who stands to profit off all
this? Aside from the Gatorade
2:01:27
delivery guy? The sports books,
they're expecting 68 million
2:01:32
Americans to gamble $23 billion
on the Super Bowl this year.
2:01:37
Industry insiders estimate about
half that on these crazy side
2:01:41
bets. And so as we near the end
of this 273 word news story,
2:01:47
where I have gestured more with
my left hand and my right. Let
2:01:51
me ask you one final question.
How many of you have been
2:01:54
waiting around just to see if my
dog will catch this ball? It's
2:01:59
the same drama within a drama
that fuels this Super Bowl
2:02:02
betting frenzy. Shut
2:02:04
Adam Curry: up. So first of all,
did you get my check? No, no, I
2:02:10
send you the check sent to the
PIO box. You always told me to
2:02:12
send to the PIO box not to the
house. Okay,
2:02:14
John C Dvorak: well, eventually
you
2:02:16
Adam Curry: should have taken
the Bitcoin you would have had
2:02:18
10% more. And
2:02:20
John C Dvorak: then if I kept
the Bitcoin another week, it'd
2:02:22
be 10% Less, okay. And it'd be
10% more then it'd be 10% Less.
2:02:27
Okay, that'd be 10% more okay.
And then it'd be temporary. I
2:02:30
just rather have the cash. So
well, I thank you for that if
2:02:34
you did, and our our classic is
part of the degenerate gambler
2:02:40
syndrome. I've known these guys
who do this, which
2:02:44
Adam Curry: according to news
reports is now mainly in Vegas.
2:02:49
Certainly people over 80 years
old. They're all gambling crazy.
2:02:55
Did you know this? No. I
2:02:56
John C Dvorak: didn't hear about
the 80 year old
2:02:58
Adam Curry: dad grandma.
Apparently grandma is the is the
2:03:02
most frequent better on sports.
On the Super Bowl and prop bet
2:03:08
specifically, according to the
Guardian, I'll give it then
2:03:12
John C Dvorak: I find this hard
to believe. Okay. And then I've
2:03:15
hung out in sports books down
there. I don't see any old
2:03:18
ladies. It just doesn't make
sense. But the inveterate
2:03:23
degenerate gambler, they are
ended this invites, which I
2:03:28
think and I think the two of us
kind of agree on this is that
2:03:31
most of these games are rigged.
2:03:33
Adam Curry: Well, so So now we
get down to the nitty gritty. Is
2:03:37
this peak Swift? Or is there yet
another peak to come? Because I
2:03:43
mean, what what
2:03:44
John C Dvorak: we can eat it?
Oh, hold on, what could there be
2:03:45
after this? Well, if they let's
say the Chiefs win or lose the
2:03:51
Super Bowl is this make Taylor
more or less popular? Depending?
2:03:58
Depending on the outcome of the
game?
2:04:03
Adam Curry: I think she, I mean,
I'm just looking at the at the
2:04:07
laws of
2:04:08
John C Dvorak: nature. Would it
be set up for them to lose? So
2:04:11
today, we're gonna have a
sympathetic Oh, poor Taylor. No,
2:04:14
Adam Curry: no, I'm looking at
the laws of nature. The laws of
2:04:17
nature dictate if you use the
media, which is your assertion
2:04:21
that they are using the media to
promote themselves but to
2:04:26
promote the NFL that it's a
publicity stunt. The law of
2:04:30
nature requires particularly in
America, but also in the UK is
2:04:34
very good at it, that the
boomerang comes around and chop
2:04:37
your head off and they and they
just excoriated you and they,
2:04:42
they just kick you down into the
mud. So of course you can then
2:04:46
be the comeback kid in a few
years. See Oda cog.
2:04:50
John C Dvorak: She doesn't need
to be a comeback kid.
2:04:53
Adam Curry: She will have if
she's, if she's, you know,
2:04:55
bashed into the mud because she
distracted Kelsey and he fumbles
2:04:59
the ball. The 40 Niners pick it
up I think even mahomes
2:05:02
quarterbacks gonna pick it up
he's gonna run it all the way to
2:05:04
the endzone wins the game
mahomes
2:05:06
John C Dvorak: is with the
chiefs.
2:05:07
Adam Curry: Oh shoot wrong
sports team
2:05:12
John C Dvorak: always comes out
2:05:17
Adam Curry: my basic thesis
remains Do you think she's going
2:05:20
to be on the quarterback
2:05:22
John C Dvorak: of the other team
wouldn't be picking it up would
2:05:24
not be we wouldn't be on the
field. I gotta be a defensive.
2:05:28
Adam Curry: We all know I'm not
a sports ball guy. But I am
2:05:31
feeling I am feeling of loss for
the chiefs. I'm Taylor getting
2:05:35
blamed for it. That's it's just
the law of nature. Now, it could
2:05:39
happen that we're not at peak
swift yet. And then what?
2:05:42
John C Dvorak: Okay, the every
time you say that, I'm going to
2:05:44
ask the same question. How can
how if this isn't going to be
2:05:49
peaks with you? What will be I
don't see any other opportunity.
2:05:53
This is right now left at the
White House. She just finished
2:05:57
the arrows tour. Yes.
2:06:00
Adam Curry: So the White House
at the White that's that would
2:06:04
be peaks with cheese when Kelsey
2:06:08
John C Dvorak: Irwin and she
goes to the White House with
2:06:10
Kelsey and the rest of the team.
Yes.
2:06:13
Adam Curry: And then they take
pictures of her in the Oval
2:06:15
Office in the President's chair.
Peaks removed. We've got to hit
2:06:22
it eventually. You've got to hit
it eventually it nobody stays on
2:06:25
top forever. You
2:06:26
John C Dvorak: just I understand
that and I'm in total agreement
2:06:29
with the thesis that people who
overdo it with the media get
2:06:33
shot down to those normal
chopped down as Yes, always.
2:06:37
Adam Curry: They always do. I
don't want it for her but I'm
2:06:40
just calling reality.
2:06:42
John C Dvorak: I think we could
want it for it's not a big deal.
2:06:45
Like she just can't afford it
like Brittany's latest thing or
2:06:53
she's dancing in a devil's
costume on Tik Tok?
2:06:58
Adam Curry: Or Britney man, poor
Britney is a wreck. For Britney.
2:07:04
John C Dvorak: I had a friend
who was a personal assistant to
2:07:08
Brittany. Really? Yeah, he is a
software guy. And he is over gay
2:07:14
now. But he was a personal
assistant. He worked for the
2:07:16
Britney group. And he said, that
is so bad that the whole thing
2:07:22
is so pathetic that one day, she
came up to him and said, I can't
2:07:27
remember his first name. But she
said Do you know how I can find
2:07:31
it? Well, how much money is in
my bank account? Okay. And he
2:07:37
was taken aback by that thinking
holy mackerel, what are they?
2:07:40
They're just keeping her in the
dark about everything. Oh,
2:07:42
Adam Curry: there was a
question. It wasn't like a
2:07:44
riddle. It was like, Can you Can
I? How can I find out?
2:07:49
John C Dvorak: It was a
question. How did she doesn't
2:07:50
know how to access her bank
2:07:51
Adam Curry: account? No, no, she
but she's been abused. This is
2:07:54
an abused woman.
2:07:55
John C Dvorak: Yeah, totally.
Very abused.
2:07:57
Adam Curry: This is a very sad
story. You ever see her dancing
2:07:59
on her on her Instagram?
2:08:02
John C Dvorak: When he was on
the Instagram or Tiktok
2:08:05
recently, and this Delos guy
didn't see that? Well. It just
2:08:08
came out. Oh.
2:08:11
Adam Curry: I just showed up in
your timeline. No,
2:08:14
John C Dvorak: it showed up. I
think it showed up on no agenda.
2:08:16
No. Social you haven't seen the
one day I was in? I think I was
2:08:23
in Singapore. Yeah. I was in
Singapore. And there were these
2:08:27
pictures of some model all over
the there's like a, like a
2:08:34
elevated train or something in
the element pole poster, this
2:08:37
huge picture of this gorgeous
model. And I said, What Who is
2:08:41
this woman? I've never seen her
before. And the guy says to me
2:08:45
is Dr. Mirror and he says oh,
that's Britney Spears. I've seen
2:08:49
Britney Spears. It doesn't look
anything like Britney Spears.
2:08:52
But it was they had her made up
with a really dark eyes and it
2:08:55
was just a spectacular look. And
it's just as though this woman
2:09:00
probably had to cash flow for
her must have been unbuilt. It
2:09:04
still must be but she's been
just totally robbed. Yeah, yeah,
2:09:08
it's a sad story.
2:09:12
Adam Curry: I'm gonna go to
before we take our break, I want
2:09:14
to take a quick little trip to
what's happening with with
2:09:18
China. So the all the sheriffs
were called to Washington DC
2:09:26
earlier this week. And they all
came back with a similar report
2:09:30
including our sheriff here in
Gillespie County. Remember,
2:09:34
Unknown: I've told you this, and
I don't want to be this is not
2:09:36
our sheriff by the way. This is
Butler County was a Chicken
2:09:39
Little that says the sky is
falling. And nobody believed
2:09:42
him. And I want to tell you that
it's going to happen
2:09:46
here. Sheriff Richard Jones
believe terrorists are living
2:09:48
among us already. This concern
is being raised after he heard
2:09:52
the FBI Director speak to
sheriffs from across the country
2:09:55
last week after hearing those
remarks. He believes in attack
2:09:58
is coming and he's said some
attacks have already started in
2:10:02
the form of cyber attacks. And
they're coming after his
2:10:05
department daily. I was
2:10:07
told today, that five times a
day China tries to hack our
2:10:11
computer system. Butler County,
Ohio, just as county in the of
2:10:16
one of
2:10:17
3300. Immediately upon his
return from Washington, DC, the
2:10:20
sheriff started making changes.
He's ordering more ammunition
2:10:23
for his officers. And he's also
stocked each sheriff's cruiser
2:10:27
with an AR 15. On top of that,
he's ramping up the citizen
2:10:31
police academy training
sessions. We
2:10:33
want you to be concerned now,
you're a fool if you don't
2:10:36
listen to the chatter. And when
the federal government says it's
2:10:41
they're here. And it's common.
We want to educate them and
2:10:44
we're going to increase our
citizens on patrol. And we're
2:10:47
going to be the police.
2:10:48
The sheriff has concerns about
hacking, tampering with the
2:10:51
sheriff's office, the board of
elections, the power grid, and
2:10:53
cell towers. Don't
2:10:55
have to believe me at all. If
you want to. You don't have to
2:10:59
be trained in firearms. When we
call you you can go hide in your
2:11:03
basement, build a safe room.
Good luck for you. So
2:11:07
John C Dvorak: what guy sounds
just like Lindsey Graham.
2:11:10
Adam Curry: So what this is
about is on the heels of the of
2:11:14
this speech, which I think
actually this is 10 days ago
2:11:19
February 1 Tonight,
2:11:20
Unknown: the FBI Director
sounding the alarm about Chinese
2:11:23
efforts to attack American power
grids, transportation systems
2:11:27
and communications networks.
2:11:29
John C Dvorak: China's hackers
are positioning on American
2:11:32
infrastructure in preparation to
wreak havoc and cause real world
2:11:37
harm to American citizens and
2:11:39
Adam Curry: communities. This is
a very underreported testimony
2:11:44
Unknown: and Christopher Ray
announcing a major takedown of a
2:11:47
Chinese hacking operation on
American soil. Dubbed volt
2:11:50
typhoon
2:11:51
John C Dvorak: working with our
partners, the FBI ran a court
2:11:54
authorized on network operation
to shut down volt typhoon and
2:11:59
the access it enabled steps.
China was taking in other words
2:12:05
to find and prepare to destroy
or degrade the civilian critical
2:12:10
infrastructure that keeps us
safe. And prosperous.
2:12:14
Unknown: Ray and other officials
say China poses the world's
2:12:16
greatest cyber threat, and they
warned that Americans remain
2:12:20
vulnerable. US cybersecurity
chief Jen easterly describing
2:12:24
the devastating impact of a
potential massive Chinese cyber
2:12:27
attack telecommunications
2:12:29
going down so people can't use
their cell phone. People start
2:12:32
getting sick from polluted
water. Trains get derailed air
2:12:36
traffic control system port
control systems are
2:12:39
malfunctioning. This is truly
and everything everywhere. All
2:12:45
at once scenario.
2:12:46
Easterly said China believes
that sort of cyber attack would
2:12:49
crush any American will to
defend Taiwan from a Chinese
2:12:53
invasion. In a statement to NBC
News a Chinese government
2:12:57
spokesman denied China hacks
into foreign networks calling it
2:13:00
irresponsible criticism.
2:13:02
Adam Curry: Okay, what is this
about? They're scaring people
2:13:06
probably unnecessarily seems a
little odd that they're going to
2:13:10
take down cell phone water plans
air traffic control, it's not
2:13:14
like polluted water somehow like
it was one switch you throw in
2:13:18
everything goes down and then
scaring these Lindsey Graham
2:13:22
Podunk sheriff's into believing
that China's hacking your your
2:13:26
very own computer systems of
course, five times a day that's
2:13:29
nothing five times a day is
nothing we get 50,000 pings from
2:13:35
all over the world every day.
Yeah, at least and it's all just
2:13:39
bought remember
2:13:40
John C Dvorak: that program that
used to be sold it was like a
2:13:43
shields up kind of a thing and
it will use a bit in the corner
2:13:47
would tell you how many people
were trying to attack you oh the
2:13:49
pew pew map No, no, not that pew
pew Matthews a product on your
2:13:53
own computer. And it was just
show a just a laundry list of IP
2:13:58
addresses coming in hitting your
machine. And it was just never
2:14:02
ending it was just like one
after another after another
2:14:04
after another was like by the
end of the day there were at
2:14:07
eight people somebody in the
zone alarm is being visited zone
2:14:11
alarm. Yes. Yeah. And it was
just constant because that's
2:14:15
what's goes on that's what five
times why
2:14:19
Adam Curry: is the FBI why are
they doing this? I mean it's
2:14:22
it's week cycle has something to
do with Iraq. Okay, six weeks
2:14:25
cycle and then you know, they
they got volts typhoon
2:14:29
John C Dvorak: G's, whatever
that is. And
2:14:31
Adam Curry: maybe it's to beef
up military industrial complex
2:14:35
purchasing for the Taiwan
invasion or whatever. I mean, I
2:14:38
don't like it.
2:14:39
John C Dvorak: Now the whole
thing if I had never even heard
2:14:41
that this was news to me. So
they're doing a shit job.
2:14:44
Adam Curry: That's what I'm
saying this well, this. I think
2:14:46
that's why they pulled all the
sheriffs in because this was
2:14:49
February 1, when we I didn't
play this report at the time but
2:14:52
we had it as NBC Nightly News.
So because they
2:14:56
John C Dvorak: can't get enough
people worked up about it
2:14:57
because I think I think there's
enough computer literate people
2:15:01
that just soon as you say the
Chinese are trying to attack us
2:15:04
five times a day. You have to
roll your eyes. Yeah. Yeah. So
2:15:10
if they're going to try to
attack us, it's going to be
2:15:13
10,000 times an hour.
2:15:15
Adam Curry: What people really
should do is just never watch
2:15:18
any news at all. Listen to us.
Twice a week. Just listen to us
2:15:22
once a week. You'll get all the
news, you'll find out what's
2:15:26
going on. Is true by People
magazine curl up with a glass of
2:15:31
Chardonnay, by the way people
magazine it's like it's only 10
2:15:34
pages. Have you seen this thing
in the supermarket? No, I
2:15:38
haven't. Oh, it used to be the
Bible. And now it's just a
2:15:42
little thing little thin. It
looks like 10 Maybe 20 pages top
2:15:48
and it's always got a celebrity
with cancer on the front Wow,
2:15:53
it's really bad is bad No, I
mean, people editor don't worry
2:15:58
about it. This is all just meant
to spin you up and you know
2:16:01
what? I'm saying this is an
elder so so here you go again,
2:16:06
so you can rest you
2:16:08
John C Dvorak: can write an
elder that's it. Showtime the
2:16:10
elder There you go.
2:16:11
Adam Curry: Here's something we
should be worried about. This
2:16:13
Unknown: is how Hong Kong rings
in the Year of the Dragon 1000s
2:16:18
of people flocked to this famous
temple to offer their first
2:16:21
incense at the altar at midnight
to mark the very beginning.
2:16:25
Lunar New Year,
2:16:27
Adam Curry: it's Lunar New Year,
John. That's how it started last
2:16:29
time as a traditional
2:16:31
Unknown: ritual worshipers
believe that the earlier they
2:16:34
make their offerings, the better
luck they will have in the year
2:16:37
ahead. So
2:16:38
Adam Curry: everyone's traveling
around China traveling around
2:16:41
the world going to Italy.
Remember that was wasn't
2:16:44
everything wasn't the spread of
COVID being blamed on the Lunar
2:16:48
New Year traffic? No, they cut
it off. Or they did cut it off.
2:16:54
Well, how come they let them go
this time? Because they
2:16:56
John C Dvorak: did Chinese have
this tradition of taken off and
2:17:00
lunar near New Year. They're
just like the number of travel
2:17:03
miles they run through is
unbelievable. Well, I have one
2:17:10
hope that door plugs? Yes. Okay.
Besides the meta AI,
2:17:17
Adam Curry: I want to I want you
to do the right
2:17:18
John C Dvorak: let's play this
is meta versus AI versus PBS
2:17:21
earlier this
2:17:22
Unknown: week as the 2024
election campaigns picked up
2:17:25
steam. Mehta announced it would
start labeling AI generated
2:17:29
images that appear on Facebook,
Instagram and threads to help
2:17:33
users better judge what they're
seeing. In December, an advocacy
2:17:36
group called Free Press said
meta YouTube and X have rolled
2:17:41
back a total of 17 policies
intended to protect against hate
2:17:45
speech and misinformation. Oh,
2:17:47
Adam Curry: so they finally have
AI that can identify AI.
2:17:51
John C Dvorak: Well, hold on.
First of all, how does this this
2:17:54
is this whole beginning of this
whole premise for this report is
2:17:56
a non sequitur. Yeah, he's
talking about meta at helping
2:18:01
the public by identifying AI
images on the on its site, and
2:18:05
then it switches so they're not
doing anything.
2:18:11
Adam Curry: Yeah, the stock will
be 800. Before you know it.
2:18:15
Unknown: The group also said
layoffs. If the three companies
2:18:17
make it harder to enforce the
safeguards that remain, oh, we
2:18:21
need some government money.
Katie Harbeth is the chief
2:18:24
global affairs officer at duco,
which is a technology consulting
2:18:27
firm. She's also a former public
policy director at Facebook.
2:18:32
Katie, this announcement from
Mehta how big a deal is that?
2:18:35
How helpful is this going to be?
And is it enough?
2:18:40
So I think that this is just one
of many important steps that all
2:18:45
have to take when thinking about
safeguarding elections, not only
2:18:48
here in the United States, but
around the globe. And so we are
2:18:52
facing new challenges with AI as
well as existing challenges that
2:18:56
have been around for a long
time, such as missing
2:18:59
disinformation, foreign
interference, transparency
2:19:02
around political ads. And I
think one of the challenges as
2:19:05
we go into this cycle, is that
that question of whether or not
2:19:08
these platforms are prepared is
we just don't know because they
2:19:12
are also putting in a lot of
investment. They're making a lot
2:19:14
of changes, as you mentioned,
but we also don't know the
2:19:18
twists and turns that await for
us over the course of this next
2:19:21
year. And so the real question,
the real proof of this will be
2:19:24
how these companies act as these
different elections happen. And
2:19:28
as we see different forms of
nefarious interference happen,
2:19:32
Adam Curry: you know, now that
Zuckerberg got spanked, maybe,
2:19:38
maybe they're wising up a little
bit and it's like, you know,
2:19:42
maybe we should be doing some AI
for one of these teams. Or be
2:19:46
labeling stuff that's real is
fake.
2:19:50
John C Dvorak: I don't know what
that's gonna happen for sure.
2:19:53
Adam Curry: Yeah, yeah, the
White House just announced
2:19:55
they're going to
cryptographically verify
2:19:58
official communication comes as
AI deep fakes surge. So the I
2:20:05
guess they're putting their
press releases on the
2:20:06
blockchain. This year.
2:20:09
John C Dvorak: They're gonna use
micro dots.
2:20:12
Adam Curry: See a surge in
blockchain? Sam Altman Raceway,
2:20:16
they
2:20:16
John C Dvorak: got part three of
this. Oh, I'm sorry. This
2:20:18
Unknown: is one of the biggest
open questions for me. Many of
2:20:21
the some of the platforms such
as meta have actually announced
2:20:24
things that they're doing for
the upcoming Indonesian
2:20:26
elections for the Mexico
elections coming up. But they're
2:20:30
just not being as transparent
about that, and what that means
2:20:32
around the globe. Traditionally,
we have seen just a lot more
2:20:36
time, money and effort put into
the English language into
2:20:39
elections in the US and the EU.
And I am worried that so much
2:20:43
attention is going to get sucked
into those elections that we
2:20:46
will forget about these
elections all around the globe,
2:20:50
that will have just as much
impact in terms of the future of
2:20:53
the global world order. And how
many Oh, no on everything from
2:20:57
from climate change to other
geopolitical issues.
2:21:02
John C Dvorak: Climate change,
turn
2:21:03
Adam Curry: off your
televisions, people shut down
2:21:06
your social media accounts.
Don't look at it. Just look at
2:21:09
the floor. The spinning will go
away. It's okay. It's okay. Sam
2:21:14
Altman is really smart though.
He is now raising quote
2:21:17
trillions of dollars to build AI
chips. That's where the money
2:21:23
is. In in raising money not I
don't think the
2:21:28
John C Dvorak: No that's your
you nailed it. Yeah, embrace.
2:21:31
The money is raising money is in
raising money. And then
2:21:35
Adam Curry: the big news, Google
barf, no longer known as Google
2:21:39
barf. It's now Gemini. They've
they've they've rebranded to
2:21:43
Gemini.
2:21:44
John C Dvorak: What was it
before?
2:21:46
Adam Curry: Barf?
2:21:47
John C Dvorak: That was a bar
2:21:48
Adam Curry: that was barred.
Google barred we dubbed it barf.
2:21:52
Okay, but but but check it out.
So Gemini, you can use Google
2:21:56
Gemini. But then if you really
want to use it, you have no
2:21:59
business model that you Oh, you
gotta get Gemini Pro for $20 a
2:22:03
month. I mean, there's no
business model. Yeah, they're
2:22:07
doing like premium content. If
you want the real deal, you got
2:22:10
to you got to get on board you
got to buy it. I don't think
2:22:14
this is a very good idea. These
guys know how to do advertising.
2:22:17
That's their business still,
isn't it?
2:22:21
John C Dvorak: Yeah, that's
their whole damn Yeah, how
2:22:23
they're gonna do it so well.
Every time they trade they
2:22:26
venture off into something else
they get all jacked up about it
2:22:29
they make a little money like a
very low margin money and then
2:22:33
they said this is no good we
can't get by with this low
2:22:35
margin money. Let's cancel it
and screw everyone who adopted
2:22:40
it.
2:22:40
Adam Curry: And with that, I'd
like to thank you for your
2:22:42
courage say in the morning to
you the man who bought the see
2:22:44
and committing journalism say
hello to my friend on the other
2:22:46
end and we're only missing
John's
2:22:52
John C Dvorak: morning yo, Mr.
Adam curry in the morning little
2:22:54
chips and seal boots on the
ground feet in the air subs in
2:22:56
the water dams and nights out
there. And
2:22:59
Adam Curry: in the morning to
all the trolls and the troll
2:23:01
room. Hello, trolls. Hold on.
Let's see last Sunday, we had
2:23:09
2123 currently 2045 So we're
down down a little bit down a
2:23:17
little bit but it's a Sunday.
2:23:18
John C Dvorak: We talking about
Africa.
2:23:20
Adam Curry: Oh my god. I had I
had Africa clips. Well, we did
2:23:23
we Yes. We talked about the
Nigerian guy. Boom. That's why
2:23:29
we talk about the Nigerian guy.
There's African guy killed in a
2:23:33
helicopter tune in now. Hello
there trolls. We love you. We
2:23:38
love you being here in our troll
room listening to the ChIAT. And
2:23:41
to the shy to the show live the
shy of the shy of llove s right?
2:23:46
I'm really confused today. It's
a Super Bowl Sunday. I'm all
2:23:49
jacked up. It's all crazy. So
what's going on?
2:23:51
John C Dvorak: Trying to watch
this game? Yeah, of course.
2:23:53
Adam Curry: I'm gonna watch the
game. How
2:23:54
John C Dvorak: could I watch all
those ads? Because every ad you
2:23:56
have the ad for this year Super
Bowl is $7 million for 30
2:24:00
seconds.
2:24:03
Adam Curry: Wow, that's a little
bit more than most podcast ads.
2:24:07
They were the ads on Joe Rogan
show. There's no ads.
2:24:13
John C Dvorak: I have not brand
safe,
2:24:14
Adam Curry: but I haven't heard
well. It's supposed to be $250
2:24:17
million. I haven't heard an ad
yet. Maybe on Spotify, but I
2:24:21
don't think he's in every
podcast app now. Which is cool.
2:24:24
I now you know, because I wasn't
really a Spotify guy. Anyway, $7
2:24:30
million. Now I'm more interested
in the halftime. I like the
2:24:34
spectacle. The television event
itself. I
2:24:36
John C Dvorak: hate the halftime
show. I always think it's lame.
2:24:39
It's lip synced. It's garbage.
2:24:42
Adam Curry: I like the
television production of the
2:24:44
Superbowl itself. I like the how
the game is done. I like the
2:24:49
technical events they put in
there like the camera shots they
2:24:52
do. I'm always very it's really
a the pinnacle of television.
2:24:58
Well, I'll
2:24:58
John C Dvorak: tell you the
pinnacle of television for me
2:25:00
recently, and I have to do this,
Sir, the thing you be ever
2:25:05
interested in even watching, but
I caught most of it or not most
2:25:08
of it a lot of it. Yeah. And it
was called the NFL honors
2:25:12
awards.
2:25:12
Adam Curry: Oh, you're right. I
would not watch that. No. It
2:25:16
John C Dvorak: was so
unbelievably produced. It looks
2:25:21
like I'd say if you were in the
year 2500. And you were watching
2:25:26
TV, this is what it would look
like, Oh, now I have to go back
2:25:30
and look at it. You can find it.
I mean, it was spectacular. And
2:25:33
if it doesn't win some sort of
an award, it won't buy the Emmys
2:25:37
or somebody's an Emmy show. So I
mean, it's an Emmys category. I
2:25:42
don't know what they're
thinking. It was just amazing.
2:25:45
was so well done. I mean, it's
just I've never seen anything as
2:25:49
good.
2:25:49
Adam Curry: Are people still
yakking about the Superbowl
2:25:52
commercials? They show them all
ahead of time? I haven't looked
2:25:55
at anything.
2:25:56
John C Dvorak: Yeah. Not as much
as they did. 10 years ago.
2:25:59
Adam Curry: Any what's Bud Light
doing bud? Lights got to do some
2:26:01
big. Okay, they
2:26:02
John C Dvorak: got a couple of
humorous commercials. They're
2:26:04
going back to
2:26:05
Adam Curry: humor. Yeah, they do
some self deprecating humor. And
2:26:10
they're smart. If they're smart.
Well, they're
2:26:12
John C Dvorak: not that smart.
And then there was an American
2:26:15
brand. Oh, these poor American
brands being no no, no, no, I
2:26:19
had a bunch of Belgium. No,
2:26:20
Adam Curry: that's what Trump is
saying. Trump is saying don't go
2:26:23
too hard on Anheuser Busch
because farmers you're not
2:26:28
seeing this. No. Yeah, he posted
that to Anheuser Busch uses a
2:26:33
lot of extra is interesting. I
think it's a lot of barley or
2:26:40
hops. I think Anheuser isn't
Budweiser made from rice?
2:26:44
John C Dvorak: I think it's
rice. And I think it's rice
2:26:47
barley. Well hops for sure. You
have to ya gotta
2:26:49
Adam Curry: have hops. Oh, yeah.
No, he was like, Whoa, don't be
2:26:54
so harsh on Bud Light. You are
2:26:58
John C Dvorak: using a lot of
local products, but it's still a
2:27:00
Belgian company. Yes.
2:27:03
Adam Curry: Well, he wasn't
toting the American nature of
2:27:06
the business. He was touting the
American farmers that produce a
2:27:09
lot of barley for the beer. That
was that's what he was saying.
2:27:13
So Alright, anyway, trolls thank
you for being here. We
2:27:17
appreciate you all 2000 of you.
It's it's a delight. It's it

corporate money. No just pure
value if you get that value and
2:28:25
by the way, that donation
segment is always good value
2:28:28
people miss out on that often.
They miss out on a lot of good
2:28:31
content. But yeah, it's
2:28:32
John C Dvorak: reminds me I had
to add my value a commentary
2:28:34
today because I finally got a
hold of the board dose superior
2:28:37
2021 Ah, yes,
2:28:39
Adam Curry: this is your value
for value commentary. This is a
2:28:41
wine tip from JCD.
2:28:45
John C Dvorak: So this wine
comes out. People have just been
2:28:49
out for a few months, but it
finally came into my Costco. And
2:28:52
I was you know, Pooh poohing the
idea of this is going to be any
2:28:55
good because 2020 was not a
great year in Bordeaux, but I
2:28:58
think they did a selection which
is a term they use in the
2:29:00
business for you know, being
very careful with grapes you use
2:29:04
to try to make a good wine from
a mediocre vintage. And, you
2:29:08
know, it's not as bad as I
thought it would be. I don't
2:29:11
think I'm gonna get a case of
it. But I can't say that is
2:29:14
terrible.
2:29:16
Adam Curry: Okay, what's the
price? 798
2:29:19
good price. I was talking to
someone just about this the
2:29:23
other day. They mentioned that.
Hey, you guys always have the
2:29:26
Costco tips. Yes, right. Usually
my you must be a donation
2:29:30
segment listener. Why yes, I am.
He said, No. That's value.
2:29:36
John C Dvorak: That's value
Ordos. Superiore 2021 Check it
2:29:39
out. It is a little light in the
mid palate, but except for that
2:29:43
it's drinkable.
2:29:45
Adam Curry: For all you mid
palate drinkers out there, be
2:29:48
warned. So there's many ways you
can give value back time,
2:29:53
talent, treasure, you can do
things for the show. You can
2:29:55
promote the show you can I mean,
we have people to We're running
2:30:00
servers for the show all kinds
of things. Doing meetups,
2:30:03
arranging meetups. Our artists
are the ones who really go all
2:30:08
out during the show they listen
live, create artwork right after
2:30:12
we're done right after we closed
down the show, we immediately
2:30:14
start doing credits and look for
a piece of art. And we want to
2:30:18
thank you areas comics or
Blogger. If you persevere
2:30:22
eventually, eventually you'll
get there and he brought us the
2:30:26
artwork for episode 1632 titles
king for a day, and he had there
2:30:31
were some commentary on the dog
but we liked the Pomeranian and
2:30:35
he had the simple Don't eat me
Obama, right since we know that
2:30:39
Obama ate dogs as a kid. Little
known fact except here on the
2:30:44
best podcast in the universe,
and it truly was the best piece
2:30:48
I'm gonna take a look and see
what what we have what choices
2:30:52
we had you have the Art
Generator up as well. Let's take
2:30:54
a look. Thank you, Sir Paul
couture for the Archon right
2:30:58
another great piece of value for
value. And it was no GI Joe. But
2:31:02
it was it made us laugh. I mean,
we both just laugh we couldn't
2:31:05
help but laugh look at a piece
2:31:07
John C Dvorak: there's a cute
piece he's what else was up
2:31:09
there? There's nothing
2:31:12
Adam Curry: but we had the SEAL
Team 33 Universal Music Group
2:31:18
behind the gate now citizen
Trump a lot of shoes
2:31:21
John C Dvorak: jokes. A lot of
seven piece pizzas. Yeah, yeah,
2:31:25
we
2:31:25
Adam Curry: wish we'd looked at
and it wasn't the pieces weren't
2:31:28
good. It's just if you were
there was really no joke there.
2:31:32
You know, Putin and Tucker
eating pizza a lot of know
2:31:37
Spotify, why we even show their
logo
2:31:41
John C Dvorak: isn't happening
now. No,
2:31:43
Adam Curry: it comics are
blocked. A Taylor Swift peaks,
2:31:47
we're not going to put Taylor
Swift on her honor album, Mart.
2:31:50
That's just not going to happen.
2:31:53
John C Dvorak: For more than one
reason. Why don't you name them?
2:31:57
Well, the main reason is you
can't use celebrity pictures to
2:32:00
advertise a product that you're
doing no matter what you think.
2:32:03
And you can't. And it doesn't
and all that fair use rules
2:32:06
don't necessarily apply. You
just can't do it. Right.
2:32:11
Adam Curry: So people are
already putting Taylor Swift out
2:32:13
there for this show. It's not
gonna happen. It's just not
2:32:16
gonna happen. Thank you very
much comics for Blogger. We
2:32:18
appreciate all of our artists
who do this work. It's not easy
2:32:23
it's a it's often thankless
because you know, you we can
2:32:27
only pick one and we do pick
one. So the next best thing is
2:32:31
to provide honest feedback which
we find to be constructive for
2:32:34
artists because this is the
drill you go through when you're
2:32:38
when you're trying to create art
for for clients. And most of
2:32:42
them will just won't even call
you back. Yeah, thanks for your
2:32:44
submission. Well, you know,
don't call us we'll call you. At
2:32:47
least we call you back and let

2:42:38
of money for some $1,000 is not
a lot of money somehow it all

Erica Tinky shares Hall wildlife
2:56:03
rescue center gave the animal a
second chance at life
2:56:06
in unusual discovery in the
snowy backyard of a Muskego
2:56:09
homeowner, a coyote with her
head stuck in a statue. No,
2:56:15
After chasing a rabbit, not
being able to free herself for
2:56:18
more than 24 hours. The person
ultimately called for help
2:56:22
noting the creature was attached
to a statue of St. Francis of
2:56:26
Assisi. That's
2:56:27
the patron saint of animals and
we can't make that up. I think
2:56:31
there was some divine
intervention there divine
2:56:33
intervention says rescuer Kim
Banik because the coyote was
2:56:36
desperately in need of care.
2:56:38
She was in shock and hypothermic
so she didn't really have any
2:56:43
fight left on her. She was you
know, she would have definitely
2:56:46
died. The staff at the
2:56:47
wildlife and needs Center took
to her quickly leaving naming
2:56:51
her Frannie after the st while
she recovered,
2:56:54
all you could see was no broken
bones, which was a good thing,
2:56:58
because that's a lot longer to
fix.
2:57:00
After more than two weeks and
treatments,
2:57:02
the wildlife and needs center
felt Franny was ready to go back
2:57:05
home and it's the while
2:57:06
anytime it's a release as a best
case scenario. That's our goal
2:57:10
is to always release and back
into the wild. Give them that
2:57:12
second chance at life. Because
they all deserve to live.
2:57:16
Adam Curry: Oh my goodness. They
all deserve to live.
2:57:28
I will say the good news segment
is a hit. People love it. They
2:57:33
do they love it. They love it.
They love it. They love it. It's
2:57:36
just good news. I mean, what
more do you want? Good news. And
2:57:41
here's some good news. We'll be
back on Thursday. Oh,
2:57:44
John C Dvorak: that is good
news. That's
2:57:46
Adam Curry: very good news. I'm
excited about that. And of
2:57:49
course we'll have a report and
your Valentine's wishes.
2:57:54
John C Dvorak: Yeah, it's
Valentine's show to Valentine's
2:57:56
Day show. So people should
consider putting a happy
2:57:59
Valentine's message out there.
Nothing
2:58:02
Adam Curry: says I love you.
