John C Dvorak: Here's a picture
of my food. Adam curry, John C.
0:03
Devora.
0:04
Adam Curry: February 15 2024.
This is your award winning
0:07
combination media assassination
episode 1634. This
0:11
Unknown: is no agenda, ready
0:14
Adam Curry: to serve and
broadcasting live from the heart
0:17
of the Texas little country
here. Reason number six, eight
0:20
in the morning, everybody.
0:21
John C Dvorak: I'm Adam curry
from Northern Silicon Valley,
0:25
where we've noticed a lot of
people with kind of smudges on
0:28
their forehead. What's going on?
I'm Jhansi Dvorak
0:32
Adam Curry: scale. Well, you as
the lapsed Catholic of all
0:37
people would know exactly what's
going on.
0:40
John C Dvorak: I know exactly
what's going on. Yeah. It's a
0:42
very weird form of virtue
signaling.
0:47
Adam Curry: It's Lensbaby. It's
Lent.
0:50
John C Dvorak: So yesterday was
Ash Wednesday. Yes. And the most
0:54
religious of the Catholics get
some smudge put on their
0:58
forehead as a part of of
ceremony. Isn't
1:00
Adam Curry: it across? Isn't it
the ash cross?
1:03
John C Dvorak: If kinda but if
you take a look at what Laura
1:05
Frau Ingraham had on hers, it
was just a big thumbprint. Yeah,
1:13
Adam Curry: that's what they're
into. Man. That's cool.
1:16
John C Dvorak: Well, yeah, if it
wasn't for the fact that they
1:18
shouldn't be worshipping an anti
Pope, but okay. I'll let that
1:22
slide.
1:24
Adam Curry: Well, it goes along
perfectly with Taylor Swift's
1:27
friend I spice.
1:30
John C Dvorak: Did you see that?
Oh, tell me about this. I have
1:32
no idea. I don't keep up with
this sort of gossip. Oh, man.
1:35
Adam Curry: I pray for Taylor
Swift everybody. She is
1:38
surrounded by the devil. Oh, I
can't believe you missed it.
1:42
They
1:44
John C Dvorak: you can't know
really. You can't believe I
1:46
missed the Taylor Swift to
update
1:49
Adam Curry: didn't use did where
you're not watching the game.
1:51
They cut away to Taylor Swift
and she's got this. She's got
1:55
this friend who I've never heard
of this woman ice spice. I guess
1:59
one of the upside down evil
Spice Girls is not a Spice Girl
2:04
but ice spice. And, and she sees
herself on the big screen that
2:08
all of a sudden starts doing
devil horns with their hands.
2:12
But she has her her thumb and
her two middle fingers together.
2:16
So it looks exactly like a
devil's head. And she's going
2:19
hey, I mean, that is CBS should
be ashamed of themselves. I
2:27
mean, they they should have
taken that out. They should have
2:30
cut it out. That was bad.
2:34
Unknown: It was real bad. It was
I missed
2:35
John C Dvorak: it. I actually
didn't watch much of the game.
2:38
Oh, I
2:39
Adam Curry: watched all of it up
until
2:44
John C Dvorak: the end. The end.
The only good part?
2:46
Adam Curry: Yeah. It was kind of
the good part. The end, man.
2:51
Well, we weren't right. I
certainly wasn't right about
2:54
what happened. It was a good
game, though. Why didn't you
2:57
watch
2:57
John C Dvorak: our thinking back
on it thinking back on it. We
3:00
have to reevaluate the decision,
especially yours that you make
3:04
because you're pretty good at
this and you miss it completely.
3:06
I did. Well, I mean, it's one or
the other is binary. So you're
3:08
going to miss her you're not
going to miss it. I think that
3:11
what we overlook was the fact
that this was this Taylor Swift
3:16
gimmick for the NFL had to be
rewarded at the end for doing a
3:21
good job. pat on the back. Yeah.
And so they had two wins to get
3:26
now the opposite over she's
gonna go off and do whatever she
3:30
does. And everybody's happy it's
up to 40 Niners
3:34
Adam Curry: I'm not so sure the
opposite over and first before
3:36
we even get to that I want to
say that they were so smug and
3:42
happy that I got it wrong that
they had to shove it in my face
3:45
with a touchdown pass mahomes is
up to 333 yards. Why is that
3:50
significant? The stadium's
address is 3333 out Davis way
3:56
he's never lost in this
building. And they win it by
4:00
free on this touchdown throw
4:10
John C Dvorak: that got me
333333 There are so many threes
4:14
involved there at the very end
they got me they got mad winning
4:17
by three the whole thing
4:19
Adam Curry: but you tweeted
something out. You slashed an X
4:22
about Travis Kelce
4:24
John C Dvorak: he's miserable is
slashed. Now is that what you're
4:27
calling? I
4:27
Adam Curry: made that up myself?
4:28
John C Dvorak: You slash No,
because I heard it earlier. Oh,
4:31
because I made it up but that's
why I heard it. I heard it in
4:33
the pre show you made it you
slot
4:35
Adam Curry: you slash annex.
They should take that from me.
4:38
It's a good idea. So they should
4:39
John C Dvorak: take it from you
that way. They didn't take all
4:42
our other jingles but go on.
Okay, what did i What did I
4:45
scare?
4:46
Adam Curry: You slashed about
Travis Kelce. He's a movie that
4:53
he's producing, which is a
climate change movie like this
4:56
guy. Like this guy is going to
produce anything okay. All
5:00
right.
5:03
John C Dvorak: Pretty big these
the big producer the new climate
5:05
change movie, but
5:06
Adam Curry: this is the OP data
5:08
Unknown: Swiss private jet
travelers making headlines.
5:11
She's been accused of generating
130 tons of co2 in three months,
5:15
equivalent to 12,622 gallons of
jet fuel. Sustainability
5:21
marketing firm yard found that
swift and 2022 a loon released
5:25
1000 tons of co2 using her
private jet. The emissions match
5:30
those of more than 1000 homes in
the same year, as swift
5:34
spokesperson rejected the
numbers as blatantly inaccurate
5:37
and says the singer hopes to
shake it off through carbon
5:41
offsets and all carbon
5:43
Adam Curry: offsets carbon
credits. carbon credits
5:48
John C Dvorak: the use of the
term shake it off well,
5:50
Adam Curry: yeah, I know you
that made you step on the carbon
5:52
credits bit? Well, it's
5:54
John C Dvorak: beside the point
I you know, these kinds of joke
5:58
reporting is getting on my
nerves.
6:04
Adam Curry: Well, I think
unfortunately for Taylor and
6:07
Travis, it's all downhill from
here. You Watch This is what the
6:11
media does. I'm already seeing
the photo. She looks unhappy and
6:16
then questioning the hug. Was
the hug a real love? Oh, you
6:21
didn't hear the questioning the
hug? No,
6:23
John C Dvorak: I? Okay. That's
good. Go to a quick premise
6:26
here. Okay. I have not followed
any of these things that you're
6:30
reporting on. And by the way, if
you were not following them, and
6:33
I was reporting on them, you'd
be giving me grief at this point
6:38
to an extreme and I'm not gonna
give you any grief. And this
6:41
what I'm doing right now is not
grief. Okay. Well, then I'm I
6:44
want to know, you really want to
know, well, I might as well
6:47
since you know, and you're gonna
I don't want you to have the
6:49
upper hand. I thought
6:51
Unknown: it was I don't know if
you saw the very end but a
6:53
really, really moving scene.
When Kelsey really moved
6:58
John C Dvorak: I was moved to
know you misinterpreted he said
7:02
really, really,
7:03
Adam Curry: really moving.
7:04
Unknown: So moving swift met up
on the field afterwards really
7:07
beautiful. I thought I could
have
7:09
done without, without his
rendition of Viva Las Vegas. It
7:14
was very Yes, very clearly, you
know, the for those who are
7:17
cynical, for those who would say
think that this is just another
7:20
product of Taylor's Miss Taylor
Swift's plan for world
7:23
domination that she sees this as
she's has a very colorful dating
7:28
history and, and she's, she's,
he's obviously a superhero.
7:32
There are those who are cynical,
I say, the love play here. And I
7:37
will say this to public, the
love on display, it feels very
7:40
real. And I will say whether you
are a cynic or whether you
7:42
believe in the romantic side of
this, the prospects of the
7:45
Kansas City Chiefs now teed up
for the three P's. Anybody who's
7:50
a hater of Taylor Swift is going
to be dealing with this for I
7:53
know your baby, we it's going to
be Kelsey Swift. For a year
7:58
until next year,
8:00
I just want to thank at the very
end John has inspired me I
8:02
wanted to thank President Biden
for for the SIOP, just an
8:07
amazing rigs coordination with
Pfizer this was an all time
8:16
curve, a masterful masterful
saya by President vibe really?
8:22
Adam Curry: Well, okay. What
hurt me would really hurt me
8:27
deeply because I knew him is
private. No, I'm going to get it
8:33
I'm gonna get to my payoff in a
moment is Pfizer's blatant abuse
8:39
of Freddie Mercury and Queen's
song for their ad about science.
8:45
Yeah, that's horrible.
8:47
John C Dvorak: I haven't read
anything about this either.
8:49
Adam Curry: Oh, they had a
commercial build. And it was a
8:52
I'm gonna be a superstar student
foetida that's all and that it's
8:57
just horrible. You know,
Freddie's dead and then everyone
9:00
else gets the right.
9:02
John C Dvorak: Don't you think
that's appropriate?
9:05
Adam Curry: Appropriate for
what? That he's dead. Pfizer's
9:08
John C Dvorak: shot Freddy's
Dead. Trying to give a message.
9:16
Adam Curry: It's a message
people and that so they're going
9:18
after cancer next. Yeah. Yeah.
What is what is the TAM Pfizer?
9:25
What's your total addressable
market? You may have created
9:28
Good job. Good job. But that was
nothing. Everything was
9:33
overshadowed and stopped dead in
its tracks. We don't have to
9:37
talk about the President being
seen now. We don't have to talk
9:39
about Tucker Carl's interview
with Vladimir Putin. No, because
9:43
we've got space wars. Breaking
news Russian nukes in space
9:50
nukes in space, everybody.
9:53
Unknown: Multiple sources
9:54
are telling CNN tonight that the
US has new intelligence on
9:57
Russia's efforts to deploy a
nuclear and by satellite system
10:01
in space, this actually comes
after the House Intelligence
10:05
Committee Chair Mike Turner
today raised the alarm. He
10:07
announced he's made information
concerning a quote, serious
10:11
national security threat
available to all members of
10:14
Congress to review. Now, keep in
mind if nukes were launched the
10:17
US from space, they wouldn't be
undetectable. And this news
10:20
gives ominous context to the
fact that one of Putin's
10:23
mouthpieces floated this very
idea on Russian state television
10:26
nine months ago, as found by
Russian media analyst Julia
10:29
Davis.
10:34
I think it's time to turn up the
humans. We understand that all
10:38
drones and everything else work
for Americans only. Well,
10:41
Starlink exists. If we carefully
launch our nukes in space, there
10:46
will be no Starlink left.
10:49
Adam Curry: So this is
10:50
John C Dvorak: all on Yes. Get
ready for this. mercs in space.
10:58
Adam Curry: Thank you. Now we
got that one. Yes. So this this
11:01
is obviously intended to get
everyone talking about nukes and
11:05
space and forget everything else
you've ever heard about the
11:09
President about what's going on?
Please, nobody. Look at Jon
11:12
Stewart's to side ism. Oh my
god. He's getting so burned.
11:18
John Stuart comes back to The
Daily Show.
11:20
John C Dvorak: Yeah, I watched
the entire episode. I watched it
11:22
as well. For I didn't think it
was that different than anything
11:26
he did in the past. I thought it
was oh, exactly. It was but he
11:29
was about to get a quick review.
All right, reserved for the
11:33
stupid beard. It's got which
makes him look like like a
11:37
drunk. It was I think he brought
back the old team of writers.
11:44
Yes, it was it was classic. It
was exists structured just like
11:48
nine years ago. It's kind of old
fashioned in that regard. It was
11:52
much better than what he was
trying to do on Apple. And and
11:56
obviously better than his movie
career. And it was done well and
12:01
it had everything going on. It
ran over time. For some reason.
12:04
I can't figure that part out.
But But what happened interview
12:08
the interview with Beddoes that
woman and but it was it was a
12:14
classic. I would say if he if he
dropped the last nine years and
12:18
put him right back on the air
and shaved him maybe dyed his
12:20
hair. You wouldn't know that
that anything changed. All
12:23
right.
12:23
Adam Curry: So what changed of
course, is the audience and
12:29
there's a subtle psychological
message in The Daily Show. I
12:33
don't know if you saw it. The
Daily Show is now using an
12:38
acronym in their logo. Did you
see the acronym?
12:43
John C Dvorak: For the good not
for
12:44
Adam Curry: The Daily Show? It's
the logo. T d S? Yeah, Trump
12:50
derangement syndrome. It's
obvious. It's funny and and the
12:56
catch and the X is full of. I
don't like Jon Stewart's to sad
13:02
isn't. That's not Cuming, Nooyi.
Good, good.
13:06
John C Dvorak: Well, we're now
where do you know where you're
13:08
getting this from? That I that's
what everyone's views my trades.
13:11
No, no, no,
13:13
Adam Curry: I'm not the trades.
I'm talking about the TDS key
13:16
did not slam Trump hard enough.
You know, he's in a pretty good
13:20
No, because it was to scientism
he also slammed Biden. That's a
13:25
no, no. The audience has
changed. John Stuart doesn't
13:29
realize this. People hate him
now. It and by the way, we both
13:35
know that he's secretly
conservative. We've talked about
13:39
this for years.
13:42
John C Dvorak: Yeah, yeah. The
easy, the easy, the secret old
13:45
fashioned conservative. Yeah,
he's not a Trump guy, that's for
13:48
sure. But no,
13:50
Adam Curry: no, but he's a
conservative and he was slamming
13:52
on Biden, you can't slam on
Biden when the message is the
13:56
President is sharp.
13:59
Unknown: Gets sharp enough.
14:02
Adam Curry: It was good. It was
a good little super cut. But
14:05
forget about that back to nukes
in
14:07
Unknown: space yet care of what
we're being told at this hour.
14:10
Two sources confirmed to ABC
News that the deliberations on
14:13
Capitol Hill have to do with
nuclear weapons in space. Russia
14:18
wanting to do that. This is not
to drop a nuclear weapon, but
14:22
rather to possibly use it
against satellites. We have one
14:25
person telling us it is very
concerning. Very sensitive. This
14:29
is a big deal. It's not
14:31
Adam Curry: a big deal. This has
been known for years. Even
14:34
speaker the house Johnson comes
out and says this is not a big
14:37
deal. What are y'all talking
about? Mike Johnson Get it
14:40
together brother. This is about
covering everything up. We've
14:43
got to have a new new new thing
to talk about that was ABC yet
14:47
no, that's what it is. There's
nothing
14:49
John C Dvorak: another there's
another element that you're kind
14:51
of overlooking
14:51
Adam Curry: nominally You mean
the space race.
14:54
John C Dvorak: Now the fact that
we're at this camp where did
14:57
this even began? It began out of
the guys they Head of the
15:00
Intelligence Committee, he's the
one who made the announcement
15:03
say on it should all be. It's
all part of getting more money
15:06
to Ukraine. I'm
15:07
Adam Curry: completely, you
jumped ahead of my analysis, but
15:11
that's okay. I'll skip all the,
15:13
John C Dvorak: you know, if
you'd speed it up, it would
15:14
help.
15:15
Adam Curry: Let's go to France
24.
15:16
Unknown: This all starts as
early on Wednesday, when the
15:18
House Intelligence Committee
Chairman, tweeted, warning of,
15:22
quote, serious national security
threats. Now, that Intel It was
15:26
then found out what had been
made available to Congress,
15:28
people in Congress to look over
in a highly compartmentalized
15:32
and secure facility. It is
highly Compartmented
15:35
Information, and more details
emerge later ultimately,
15:39
centered around a space based
nuclear weapon designed by
15:43
Russia, which is meant to target
satellites in space. Now, those
15:47
are satellites that could be
used for civilian communication,
15:49
but also military communication,
and military surveillance as
15:53
well. Now, so far, the United
States has no countermeasure for
15:56
this kind of weapon. And it was
in total, no sensitive and so
16:00
important that it was shared
with international allies as
16:04
well. Now, it must be said this
has been stressed by numerous
16:07
people, numerous sources, thus,
it is not an immediate threat.
16:11
This is not something that's
been launched, but it is
16:13
something that Russia is looking
into. And I've had it confirmed
16:15
to me by numerous sources as
well that this reporting is
16:19
accurate, and also that the
sources have known about this
16:22
for quite some time. Congressman
Milton, who is also on the
16:26
Intelligence Committee says to
CNN that he'd known about this
16:29
intelligence for two years now
he was saying that's Congressman
16:33
Turner, the person who leaked
this information. So because he
16:37
was offended that the Biden
administration hadn't told him
16:40
personally about it sooner. So
some politics also coming in to
16:44
Social Security here in
Washington. I
16:46
Adam Curry: am in total
agreement with you. This is all
16:48
about funding, they need money,
because hey, I mean, we need
16:51
money we just meet and I will
prove that after we get to be
16:56
what will
16:57
John C Dvorak: be for you go on.
Let me say something about that
17:00
clip. That guy who is this guy
on press 24 He's he one thing he
17:06
gives himself away as a Rube by
saying the word instead of
17:10
saying, Come, come, I can't even
now I can't even send myself. He
17:14
says come
17:16
Adam Curry: part mented the
human compartmentalised. Yeah,
17:20
and but
17:21
John C Dvorak: he said I believe
he said it twice because I don't
17:23
think he knows the frog.
17:27
Adam Curry: Come on. Come on.
English as a second language,
17:31
give the guy a break. Now I
think there's a subtext here.
17:34
The subtext is let's SIOP
everybody again, why did we
17:39
start our initial our race to
the moon? Because the Russians
17:43
had Sputnik? Am I correct? I
mean, I was barely alive. But
17:48
the Russians had Sputnik they
were putting monkeys in space.
17:52
And now all sudden, they've got
Oh, no, they're going to put
17:55
nukes in space. Well, well,
well, what are we going to do?
17:58
It
17:58
Unknown: could be history in the
making a private mission to the
18:01
moon has blasted off from the
Kennedy Space Center at Cape
18:04
Canaveral in Florida. 321
ignition, and with American
18:12
aerospace company, intuitive
machines launched it.
18:15
Adam Curry: I gotta stop this
for a second. That was an
18:18
unAmerican countdown. That was
the most effeminate countdown
18:22
I've ever heard. This is not
what we want from our space
18:25
stuff. We want three to one,
lift off instead of three to
18:32
one, lift off everybody
18:33
John C Dvorak: again, three to
one, ignition. And notice that
18:41
the first time or you're writing
18:44
Unknown: on American people,
American aerospace company,
18:47
intuitive machines launched its
Odysseus lander on a rocket made
18:52
by Elon Musk's SpaceX company.
It's trying to become the first
18:56
commercial spacecraft to
successfully land on the lunar
18:59
surface. The launch was
originally planned for
19:01
Wednesday, but it was postponed
due to a technical glitch.
19:05
Everything went according to
plan. And if the landing also
19:10
goes well, Odysseus will search
for water on the moon and what
19:13
some are calling a second space
race.
19:16
Adam Curry: A second space race.
There it is second space race.
19:21
So how cynical can you get on
Super Bowl Sunday when everybody
19:26
is looking at Taylor Swift and
her devilish friends. Senate
19:31
gets together on a Sunday.
They're not going to Well, we
19:34
went they take they take
vacation. They take off for
19:37
anything. They take snow days.
Oh, it's snowing. We can't go.
19:42
They decided it was we're not
going to watch the Super Bowl.
19:45
We're not going to honor Taylor
and Travis. Instead we're going
19:50
to sit there and we're going to
pass a bill of $95 billion for
19:54
everything including Taiwan. But
nothing for the border or we're
19:59
just going to put This together
because we need the money.
20:02
Unknown: So this package used to
be connected to border security,
20:06
which failed. What are the
conversations in the White House
20:10
about exactly what these House
Republicans want? Because if you
20:14
look at any of these packages on
the face of it, it usually is
20:18
something that they would want.
Yeah,
20:21
it's I wish I could answer that
question. But what we can't I
20:24
mean, they said they wouldn't
approve a penny for Ukraine
20:27
unless the border was tied into
it. So we said, Okay. And we
20:31
participated and help with the
the negotiations that are
20:34
largely done on the Senate side
to get that done. And now they
20:36
say, Well, no, can't can't do
it. Because, you know, for
20:41
whatever reason for whatever
leadership reasons they have for
20:43
that. So it's difficult to know
exactly where they are mean,
20:46
though the speaker has been
twisting himself into pretzel
20:48
notch here, in terms of what
he's willing to justify on any
20:51
given day. We need this funding,
Kirby he the funding for the
20:55
volume, you stepped on it again,
listen, yes, he's willing to
20:58
justify on any given day, we
need this funding, we need the
21:02
funding for the border to but we
need this funding for our
21:04
national security with Ukraine,
with humanitarian assistance,
21:08
and certainly, as you rightly
said, in the Indo Pacific, I
21:11
mean, these aren't, these aren't
just a wishes. I mean, this is
21:14
this is actual urgent funding
that's required for our own
21:17
national security. We need this
21:19
Adam Curry: funding.
21:20
John C Dvorak: What is he got a
somebody have a gun to his head?
21:22
What is he blabbering on like a
maniac like this?
21:25
Adam Curry: That's probably not
far from the truth? Yes. Yes.
21:28
The Military Industrial Complex
just wants more. They don't
21:33
care.
21:34
John C Dvorak: They don't see
the writing on the wall. They
21:36
don't get thrown. They figure
they're, that's they figure
21:39
that's it. Let's get as much as
we can while we can. And what's
21:44
the what's the I'm one of these
that Sam, one of these guys
21:48
wishes. A lot of them are women,
by the way, including the head
21:51
of Lockheed. It goes like what
are you guys waiting for? You
21:56
know what's going on? You know
what's going to happen? Get the
21:59
job done? Yep.
22:02
Adam Curry: I have some proof
that this is all about Trump.
22:04
Remember, we have this huge NATO
exercise. I got my NATO clip.
22:09
Everybody's all I got to do and
I want to hear you. It didn't
22:14
John C Dvorak: take jack for him
to get everyone all worked up
22:17
about
22:17
Unknown: doing. Brilliant
Western
22:19
leaders have criticized Donald
Trump for saying he would not
22:22
protect NATO allies who are not
spending enough on defense from
22:26
Russian attacks. The Republican
frontrunner Trump said he had
22:30
previously told NATO states, he
would encourage Russia to do
22:33
whatever they want. If they
didn't fulfill their commitments
22:37
to the bloc. Trump has regularly
lashed out at members of the
22:41
line out for failing to Spanish
notchback percent of the
22:44
economic output on defense. NATO
chief Jens Stoltenberg says any
22:50
suggestion that allies would not
defend each other undermines
22:54
Western security.
22:55
Adam Curry: Now this is
interesting. This is that was a
22:58
report from I think it was
Deutsche Bella, but then listen
23:03
to this report. And what
Stoltenberg actually said video
23:07
released by Ukraine Oh yeah, by
the way, drones are back water
23:11
drones. The water drones.
23:13
Unknown: She was a naval drone
homing in on the Russian ship
23:16
off the coast of Crimea. flashes
and plumes of smoke can then be
23:20
seen. Final shots appear to show
the Cesar Krunic of beginning to
23:25
sink. This was the ship sailing
through the Istanbul Strait in
23:30
2020. It can carry up to 90 crew
and is designed for beach
23:35
landings. No official coming
from Moscow so far, but normally
23:39
reliable social media channels
and intercepted radio.
23:43
Adam Curry: I love their
reporting normally reliable,
23:45
normally reliable social media
channels. This is This is top
23:50
notch people
23:51
Unknown: but normally reliable
social media channels and
23:54
intercepted radio traffic seemed
to confirm the attack would be
23:59
another serious blow to Russia's
Black Sea Fleet. Ukraine has
24:02
successfully targeted its ships
and harbors defeating Russian
24:06
attempts to impose a blockade on
its grain exports. All right now
24:10
let's try to trump the news was
hailed as a victory by NATO.
24:14
Ukrainians
24:15
have been able to inflict heavy
losses on the Russian Black Sea
24:20
Fleet. By
24:21
Adam Curry: the way, I love the
fact that NATO comes out and
24:23
says hey, this is great. We're
not in this war or anything.
24:26
They're not a NATO member, but
it's great. It's doing great I
24:29
find
24:29
John C Dvorak: it deplorable
that they would do that and now
24:32
listen to this. They're not a
NATO member what are they
24:34
cheering them on? or NATO
supposed to have a specific job
24:37
to do? Not getting involved in
every thing every which way like
24:40
they did in Syria? Well,
24:44
Adam Curry: Stoltenberg still
head of NATO has a message.
24:48
Unknown: The news was hailed as
a victory by NATO. Ukrainians
24:52
have been able to inflict heavy
losses on the Russian Black Sea
24:57
Fleet. They have actually been
able to It pushed the Black Sea
25:01
Fleet away from the western part
of the Black Sea. And this is a
25:05
great achievement a great
victory for victory. A great
25:10
defense
25:10
ministers were meeting for the
first time since Donald Trump
25:13
again criticized some for not
paying enough and cast doubt on
25:18
the US has commitment to their
defense. But new figures on
25:21
Wednesday show 18 out of 31
members are now paying the
25:25
minimum 2% of GDP, including
Germany for the first time since
25:30
the Cold War. Only five were in
2016. Just before Trump entered
25:35
the White House. The
25:36
criticism that we hear is not
primarily about NATO. It's about
25:42
NATO Allies not spending enough
on NATO. And that's a valid
25:48
point.
25:51
John C Dvorak: What was the
punchline? I couldn't hear him
25:53
Adam Curry: that's a valid
point. Oh, yeah. Funny. Yeah. I
25:57
mean, Trump is actually doing
the doing the bidding of the
26:00
military industrial complex.
26:02
John C Dvorak: Yeah, it makes
everyone spend more money Yeah,
26:04
that's what that whole thing is.
I don't know why anyone can put
26:07
two and two together and say
this is good for us. Man
26:10
Adam Curry: I gotta tell you
it's like people don't see it
26:15
we're not fighting the left or
the right or the red or the blue
26:19
or whatever you are problems are
not going to be solved in
26:22
Congress in the Oval Office.
Where we're fighting the powers
26:26
of darkness like ice spice
that's nice. You're not gonna
26:31
get off definitely cannot get
off of ice spice that was a
26:34
screenshot of this devil's horns
that she did this video is
26:37
deplorable. deplorable. All
right, do your NATO clips and
26:41
then I want to get into drones.
26:42
John C Dvorak: I got a three by
three.
26:43
Adam Curry: Oh my god. I wasn't
even prepared for a three by
26:46
three. Yeah. What is meant by a
JC what are we have
26:51
Unknown: comparing story from
CDC.
26:57
Adam Curry: We've got all the
headlines in the top three
26:59
networks here in the United
States who drive all the
27:01
narrative thanks to the New York
Times and John is going to show
27:04
us if they use the same NAT POP
same NAT packages, and if it's
27:07
exact same bin, they're all
fishing from you like coffee
27:11
this morning. I did. I'm jacked.
27:14
John C Dvorak: Wow, you've been
drinking that canned stuff from
27:17
gigawatts that
27:19
Adam Curry: that gigawatts stuff
is amazing. All right.
27:25
John C Dvorak: I got a four by
four actually, because I got
27:28
Canadian in here again. But
let's start with ABC and Mary
27:31
Bruce.
27:31
Unknown: Tonight, President
Biden imploring House
27:34
Republicans to pass additional
funding for the war in Ukraine,
27:38
saying the US has to send Russia
and the world a strong message
27:42
supporting
27:43
this bill. Standing up to Putin
opposing it is playing into
27:48
Putin's hands.
27:49
He says the stakes got even
higher when Donald Trump said he
27:52
would actually encourage Russia
to attack our NATO allies that
27:56
fail to meet defense spending
targets. Just the suggestion
28:00
that Trump would support Russia
attacking one of our allies,
28:04
infuriating Biden,
28:06
I would encourage them to do
whatever the hell they want.
28:09
Biden today.
28:11
No other president Our history
has ever bowed down to a Russian
28:14
dictator. Bow down. We say this
as clearly as I can. I never
28:18
will. For God's sake. It's dumb.
It's shameful. It's dangerous.
28:23
It's unAmerican.
28:24
The president saying House
Republicans now face a stark
28:28
choice to House
28:29
Republicans. You got to decide.
Are you gonna stand up for
28:33
freedom? We're gonna side with
Taran Pope. Tyranny. You're
28:40
gonna stand with Ukraine. You're
gonna stand with Putin. We stand
28:43
with America, or Trump. The
28:46
$95 billion which also includes
funding for Israel has already
28:52
passed the Senate with
significant Republican support.
28:55
But House Speaker Mike Johnson
refuses to even bring it up for
28:59
a vote. He says no more foreign
aid without tougher border
29:02
security measures. This though
just last week under pressure
29:06
from Trump, Republicans rejected
a bipartisan compromise
29:10
including the toughest border
measures in decades
29:17
national security against border
security
29:20
Adam Curry: all along it's quite
amazing how ABC and I have a
29:24
feeling the other nowhere to the
same how they just chop in a
29:27
small little tidbit of what
Trump actually said which was
29:30
admitted to be true by Jens
Stoltenberg of NATO the guy that
29:36
it's all about and baffling.
29:40
John C Dvorak: It is baffling it
well let's go to the worst of
29:44
them then wishes NBC and Comcast
owned NBC, which is the most
29:50
probably progressive group of
them all for the first time. I
29:54
shouldn't mention you know, they
you know, they've gone deep into
29:57
D E I and yeah, so my inner net
was down last night.
30:01
Adam Curry: Oh no.
30:02
John C Dvorak: Comcast down.
Luckily I have backup. For
30:05
Unknown: the first time in
cluster 150 years a sitting
30:08
Cabinet Secretary has been
impeached by the House of
30:11
Representatives. It was a close
vote 214 to 213. And it comes
30:16
just one week after House
Republicans failed to impeach
30:19
Alejandro Mayorkas. All as
there's a new showdown tonight
30:23
over Ukraine, after the Senate
muscle drew a massive bipartisan
30:28
$95 billion spending package in
the early morning hours,
30:32
including 60 billion for
Ukraine. President Biden
30:36
demanding the house pass it
immediately
30:39
failure to support Ukraine, this
critical moment will never be
30:42
forgotten.
30:43
Biden's slamming these comments
from Trump, where he recounted a
30:47
conversation with a NATO member
encouraging Russia to attack
30:50
countries who had not met their
financial pledges to the
30:53
alliance.
30:54
They said you didn't pay your
delinquent. He said yes. Let's
30:59
say that happened. No, I would
not protect you. In fact, I
31:02
would encourage them to do
whatever the hell they want. You
31:05
gotta pay.
31:06
Can you imagine a former
president united states saying
31:10
that? The whole world heard it.
The worst thing is he means
31:15
delivering this. No other
president Our history has ever
31:19
bowed down to a Russian
dictator. Let me say this as
31:23
clearly as I can. I never will.
For God's sake. It's dumb. It's
31:28
shameful. It's dangerous. It's
unAmerican.
31:31
Meanwhile, that package in the
same place, so contained more
31:33
than $14 billion for Israel, but
it does not include any funding
31:37
for domestic border security,
after Republicans with Trump's
31:41
backing killed a bipartisan
border security bill saying it
31:45
was not tough enough with
Speaker Mike Johnson saying
31:48
that's the price for any new
money for Ukraine. Bad
31:51
health security begins with
border security.
31:54
Adam Curry: All along the same
clip at the end. Okay, so with
31:57
Trump's backing, that was great.
I love that there's no actual
32:00
evidence of this and what it
was, you know, there was the
32:02
voting. Was he putting up
32:04
John C Dvorak: money and voting?
He wasn't there. He was not
32:06
President. What are they talking
about? It was something else
32:08
Adam Curry: I wanted to mention
in the was it there was
32:11
something else in that clip that
was totally irksome. homos
32:15
Second, do you mind if I just go
back for so go review it now
32:19
almost like it was somewhere in
the middle here. They
32:22
Unknown: said you didn't pay
your delinquent. He said, Yes.
32:26
Let's say that happened? No, I
would not protect you. In fact,
32:29
I would encourage them to do
whatever the hell they want. You
32:32
gotta fail. Can
32:33
you imagine a former president
united states saying that? The
32:38
whole world heard it. The worst
thing is he means and delivering
32:43
this. During rebuke. No other
president Our history has ever
32:47
bowed down to a Russian
dictator. critical moment will
32:50
never be forgotten.
32:52
John C Dvorak: I said bowing
down any comments from
32:54
Unknown: billion for Ukraine? I
don't remember what it was. But
32:57
anyway,
32:57
John C Dvorak: I'm sorry. But
you probably pick it up on the
32:59
CBS report. There's no
33:01
Unknown: doubt the former
president has said a dangerous
33:03
and shocking me, frankly, on
American signal to the world.
33:07
President Biden leveled a
blistering attack today on
33:10
Donald Trump for recently saying
he wouldn't defend NATO allies
33:13
from a Russian attack. If they
don't pay full do
33:16
Adam Curry: Wow, this sounds
like the same guy. It sounds
33:19
like the same coin. No. And
33:20
John C Dvorak: you started
playing the clip. Oh, my God.
33:23
Adam Curry: This was the same
guy. Let me hear that again.
33:26
Because
33:26
Unknown: he means and delivering
this blistering rebuke to the
33:30
alliance.
33:31
Let's say that happened since
No, I did not protect you. In
33:34
fact, I
33:34
John C Dvorak: would wait a
minute. Is that O'Keefe? That
33:36
was Ryan nobles. That was NBC
same? Well, you know, they came
33:41
from the same stable. Oh, that's
a lot of
33:45
Unknown: former President has
said a dangerous and shocking
33:48
me, frankly, on American signal
to the world. President
33:52
Biden leveled a blistering
attack today on Donald Trump for
33:55
recently saying he wouldn't
defend NATO allies from a
33:57
Russian attack. If they don't
pay full dues to the alliance.
34:01
Let's say that happened. No, I
would not protect you. In fact,
34:04
I would encourage them to do
whatever the hell they want. You
34:07
got to face you got to pay your
bills.
34:10
Imagine a former president
united states saying that the
34:14
whole world heard it same clip
and worst thing is he means that
34:18
no other president in history
has ever bowed down to a Russian
34:21
dictator. Oh
34:22
John C Dvorak: down.
34:23
Unknown: Let me say this as
clearly as I can. I never will.
34:27
Oh, god sake it's dumb. It's
shameful. It's on American.
34:32
The President spoke after an all
34:33
Adam Curry: I know what the I
know. I had a question. They
34:36
keep calling Putin a dictator
isI a dictator I thought isn't
34:39
isn't that they've got they
don't have a dictatorship in
34:42
Russia. Do they? know
34:44
John C Dvorak: he's elected?
Yeah, he's
34:45
Adam Curry: elected.
34:45
John C Dvorak: I mean, he's
he's, he's, I would say a de
34:49
facto dictator. No, but he's not
technically a dictator. Okay.
34:54
It's
34:54
Unknown: dumb. It's shameful.
It's dangerous. It's unAmerican.
34:57
The President spoke after an all
night mera. have a debate in the
35:00
Senate left early morning
passage of an emergency National
35:03
Security spending purchase the
bill as amended passes, it would
35:07
provide billions military
assistance to Ukraine, Israel
35:11
and Taiwan, but says nothing
about US Mexico border security.
35:15
And that's why House Speaker
Mike Johnson says he won't bring
35:18
it up for a vote. That
35:19
helps security begins with
border security. We have said
35:22
that all House Republicans
35:24
are increasingly taking cues
from Trump who has said they
35:26
shouldn't support any border
security deal that could benefit
35:30
Democrats. President Biden,
35:31
Adam Curry: now he's taking cues
is Trump lied to in his ear
35:34
like, hey, oops, like, Hey,
Mike,
35:37
Unknown: don't do it. Man. This
is your IFP talking, Mike.
35:41
Adam Curry: What is going on
with this reporting? Crap. The
35:44
Unknown: president today said
the stakes are bigger than that.
35:48
And I
35:48
say to the House members, House
Republicans, you got to decide
35:53
are you gonna stand up for
freedom? We're gonna side with
35:56
Terran tyranny. We stand with
America or Trump. Meanwhile,
36:02
tonight, House Republicans are
planning to vote again to
36:04
impeach Homeland Security
Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas in
36:08
opposition to his handling of
border security. The similar
36:10
vote failed last week. And if
they succeed this time, my orcas
36:13
would be the first Cabinet
Secretary impeached since 1876.
36:18
Adam Curry: The cynical thing
about this bill was they're also
36:20
giving money to Palestine. We're
giving money to both sides.
36:24
Yeah, this is great.
36:27
John C Dvorak: It's our
taxpayers money. We got to
36:30
spending it wisely and fixing
it. No way at all over the
36:33
place. It's not
36:34
Adam Curry: taxpayer money,
John, that's not true. No,
36:37
John C Dvorak: I've felt we're
around about whatever money is
36:40
we're print missing from the
coffers. It's taxpayers money.
36:44
Adam Curry: Yeah, we're just
36:46
John C Dvorak: take a look.
Let's take a look at CBC
36:49
reporting.
36:51
Adam Curry: It's an investment.
Okay. It's an investment in our
36:54
national security.
36:58
Unknown: Oh, nice. Standing
before an energetic crowd in a
37:02
small city in South Carolina.
Donald Trump veered from his
37:06
prepared remarks at one of his
reelection campaign rallies,
37:10
telling a story about a
conversation he says he had with
37:13
an unnamed world leader about
whether the US would come to the
37:17
defense of a NATO ally in the
face of Russian aggression.
37:21
One of the presidents of a big
country stood up said, Well,
37:24
sir, if we don't pay and were
attacked by Russia, will you
37:29
protect us? I said you didn't
pay your delinquent
37:32
in this moment. Trump
mischaracterizes how NATO
37:36
funding works, but goes on to
suggest that unless an ally
37:39
meets its defense spending
targets, that country is not
37:43
worth defending against Russian
advances.
37:46
No, I would not protect you. In
fact, I would encourage them to
37:49
do whatever the hell they want.
You got to bang
37:52
Trump statement is a direct
reflection of
37:56
John C Dvorak: where did Trump
ever say it's not worth
37:59
defending? That's what she said.
And she we heard again, which
38:03
were laughable, by the way his
comments were semi humorous, and
38:06
she characterize them as telling
a guy You're not worth
38:10
defending. He never says that.
38:12
Adam Curry: And he meant it. It
wasn't a joke, John, he meant
38:15
it. I heard the President said
he meant it. That's the crazy,
38:18
but
38:18
Unknown: goes on to suggest that
unless an ally meets its defense
38:22
spending targets, that country
is not worth defending against
38:26
Russian advances.
38:27
Adam Curry: Good catch,
38:28
Unknown: no, I would not protect
you. In fact, I would encourage
38:31
them to do whatever the hell
they want. You gotta Fang.
38:34
Trump's
38:34
statement is a direct
contradiction of the NATO
38:37
principle that an attack on one
is an attack on all Canada is
38:42
among the NATO country members
that Trump would consider not
38:45
worthy action, as it does not
spend 2% of its GDP on defense
38:51
Raceline target, only 11 of
NATO's 31 members actually hit
38:56
defense funding goals.
Spokesperson for Canada's
38:59
Defence Minister Bill Blair did
not say anything critical of
39:02
Trump, but reaffirmed Canada's
commitment to the International
39:05
Security Alliance. None of this
will likely matter to Trump's
39:09
supporters.
39:10
God bless you all God bless you
get out and vote. He left
39:14
Saturday's rally to huge
applause was defended by key
39:18
members of the Republican
establishment. Trump's pro
39:21
Russia statements are
influencing lawmakers pro
39:24
Russian opposition to support
for Ukraine is stalling.
39:30
Control for all Russian
39:32
John C Dvorak: pro Russian.
Exactly specifically. Do you
39:35
have any indication in there
that are Euro Russian?
39:39
Adam Curry: Are you trying to
tell me that the media is trying
39:41
to mind control us with these
thoughts
39:44
John C Dvorak: and they're
trying to do something here
39:47
without it left
39:48
Unknown: Saturday's rally to
huge applause and was defended
39:52
by key members of the Republican
establishment. Trump's pro
39:55
Russia statements are
influencing lawmakers Republican
39:59
opposition to support for
Ukraine is growing, stalling the
40:02
passage of billions of dollars
in aid packages, which still
40:06
remain in limbo.
40:07
Adam Curry: So the whole, you
know, promoting pro Putin
40:12
promoting Putin. There was
another one that I caught very
40:15
short clip here, a British
journalist. I don't know why we
40:18
let him in Congress lie me. We
let some lie me Britt come into
40:23
Congress, and a cost Marjorie
Taylor agree. And he had a
40:27
better one. David
40:29
Unknown: Cameron says that you
should vote through funding for
40:31
Ukraine. What do you say to
that? I think he tried to
40:34
compare us to Hitler also. And
if that's the kind of language
40:38
he wants to use, I really have
nothing to say to him,
40:41
he like can do to an appeaser to
Hitler in novel to include
40:45
funding for Ukraine, or, you
40:47
Adam Curry: know, Pisa for Putin
and appeaser for Putin. There it
40:49
is.
40:50
Unknown: I think that I really
don't care what David Cameron
40:53
has to say. I think that's rude
name calling, and I don't
40:57
appreciate that type of
language. And David Cameron
41:00
needs to worry about his own
country,
41:02
and frankly, he can kiss my ass.
What do you think?
41:08
Adam Curry: I love that. I don't
like to rude language but kiss
41:10
my ass. Yeah.
41:13
John C Dvorak: To play this is
the Ukraine. This clip as
41:16
Ukrainian aid bill stalled,
41:18
Unknown: House Republicans again
highlighting their focus on
41:21
securing the southern border. It
comes as the Senate passed a $95
41:25
billion security package that
doesn't address the record
41:28
influx of illegal immigrants.
Our Washington correspondent
41:31
Luiz Eduardo Martinez has more
details on the current
41:34
legislative impasse in Congress.
41:37
It is February the 14th.
Valentine's day and day to
41:41
celebrate love louder according
to Speaker of the House Mike
41:44
Johnson, New Orleans are not
feeling loved by their President
41:47
Oh Love House Republican
leadership emphasize that they
41:50
won't be forced to act on the
foreign aid bill. The Senate
41:53
passed Tuesday until Americans
concern over the border crisis
41:57
are addressed. Senator
41:59
McConnell and I've spoken about
this in Frank sessions. And let
42:01
me be clear here again this
morning. The Republican led
42:04
house will not be jammed or
forced into passing a foreign
42:07
aid bill that was opposed by
most Republican senators and
42:11
does nothing to secure our own
border.
42:16
During back to back press
conferences. Congressman Pete
42:19
Aguilar, chair of the House
Democratic Caucus, urged Johnson
42:23
to bring the Senate's $95
foreign aid package to a vote on
42:27
the House floor. Aguilar says
Ukraine and other US allies are
42:32
in urgent need of assistance.
It's
42:35
very clear if you want to push
back against Putin. We want to
42:38
help our national security put
this bill, this bipartisan bill
42:41
on the floor of
42:42
the White House says National
Security Adviser had similar
42:45
comments.
42:46
All I can say is that each
passing day each passing week,
42:50
the cost of inaction from the
United States that's being borne
42:53
on the front lines by brave
Ukrainians is rising. And that's
42:56
why we so urgently need to pass
this bill urgently.
43:00
Adam Curry: urgently. Please
send
43:03
John C Dvorak: money out there.
43:03
Adam Curry: You know, if you
remember,
43:05
John C Dvorak: by the way, I in
my opinion, this bill would pass
43:08
if if Johnson would put it up?
Or vote for a vote. That's why
43:13
he's not doing it?
43:13
Adam Curry: Of course not.
Course not. Do you remember, we
43:20
were talking about Eric Schmidt,
the ex Google guy and he did a
43:24
big thing. On sound was a CNN,
he was talking about it, he
43:29
started a drone company. And he
says this is the next level of
43:34
warfare. It's all about the
drones, the drones, the drones.
43:38
I think there's something to
what he's doing. He's a
43:41
brilliant man, this Eric
Schmidt. He is listen to the
43:45
Dutch defense minister.
43:47
Unknown: We know of course,
drones are very important in
43:50
this war. So while we're seeing
trench warfare, and we're also
43:54
seeing the drums and the role of
the plant and the role they play
43:57
in on the battlefield. So apart
from if 60s ammunition spare
44:02
parts, drone is very important
to Ukraine right now. And we
44:06
need to scale up. We need to
make sure that they have the
44:11
number of drones that they need,
but also drones with the right
44:15
capabilities. So based on what
Ukraine is learning also on
44:20
frontline, and that's why we are
joining the drone coalition that
44:26
Ukraine has started together
with Latvia together with other
44:29
countries to make sure that we
do just that to increase
44:32
production to use the latest
technology and to provide
44:36
exactly with what Ukraine needs
44:42
Adam Curry: maybe it's marine
drones, its air drones. Its
44:47
drone drone drone drone,
everything's a drone.
44:50
Everything's yeah,
44:51
John C Dvorak: there's money to
be made in the drone. one more
44:53
clip the plan is NATO
44:55
Adam Curry: big money in drones.
All right before you go to
44:58
drones
45:00
John C Dvorak: You were
listening all these reactions to
45:01
Trump's commentary about NATO
and always wants this summit.
45:06
This is a this is an interesting
little clip. This is just the
45:09
public leaving Trump's rally
discussing this matter the way
45:16
and I think this is what the
public thinks, but some
45:19
Unknown: Trump supporters were
outside today's rally told us
45:22
just now that they think Trump
was not wrong and calling out
45:25
some countries who are not
paying their fair share, watch.
45:29
They've
45:29
got to pay and get to be a part
of something you got to pay your
45:32
dues. I think that's fair. And I
think they should. I don't see
45:36
anything wrong with what he
said. He's
45:38
got too much too big of a lead.
She should just drop out.
45:42
Adam Curry: Daily, Haley Haley,
but the military complex is
45:47
being promoted by Trump.
45:49
John C Dvorak: The term Yeah,
that's the irony. The term fair
45:54
share. Yep. Which Biden loves to
use, I think should be used
46:00
constantly about this commentary
that Trump had to say.
46:04
Adam Curry: Yeah, but this is
everyone's the military
46:07
industrial complex has power.
They have power, man, they got
46:11
power over everybody over all
these nit numbnuts
46:15
John C Dvorak: or everybody but
except for the Big Pharma. Yeah,
46:19
well, I'm not sure we're in bed
together. And and the shot deer
46:24
in
46:26
Adam Curry: the interest.
something interesting happened.
46:27
You know, we've been talking
about the Democrats actually
46:31
wanting Trump to win
46:33
John C Dvorak: here has one of
our sub text theses. Yes. Well,
46:37
Adam Curry: I have a have
another data point. Brett
46:41
Weinstein fresh from his
appearance on Tucker. He's going
46:45
around the world, you know, he
went to the Darien Gap. And he
46:48
came back and said, Oh, we're
being invaded by Chinese as
46:51
military age men. Even though I
think we've successfully proven
46:55
that there's huge unemployment
in China and the rich Chinese
46:59
who can or the wealthy or the
middle class who can travel to
47:03
other countries or hopscotching
around they take an Uber at the
47:05
last minute. They come through
the fence. Yeah, they come to
47:08
the police.
47:09
John C Dvorak: We did nothing
wrong with having 10s of 1000s
47:13
of smart Chinese coming into the
country to boost our IQ. Yes.
47:20
Adam Curry: But Weinstein is now
on the and I actually texted
47:23
with Joe about this. And he says
no, we're being invaded, said,
47:26
No, we're not. But it was this
little bit of Weinstein's
47:32
appearance that really said, Oh,
we're on the right track.
47:36
Unknown: Well, I don't think
we're there yet. But I but I
47:39
don't think on the basis of the
time he would have his
47:43
temperament or his ability to
build a team. You know, Trump is
47:47
kind of a one man show. And his
team building ability, I don't
47:51
think is enough to solve the
problem either. But the punch
47:54
line of that is, if Kennedy
can't do it, for whatever
48:00
reason, if politics gets in the
way, we still have to get
48:06
whatever that cabal is out of
power immediately. This could
48:09
not be more of an emergency.
We've seen through COVID how
48:14
dangerous these people are, how
little they care about our well
48:17
being. And we have to rally
around whatever it is that
48:22
addresses this problem. And, you
know, as much as I'm not a
48:28
believer that Trump on his own
can do the job. I would far
48:32
prefer him to another standard
bearer of that Cabal, the cabal
48:36
is too dangerous. And I say
this, as you know, I'm a
48:38
lifelong Democrat. Right? This
is my party that I'm telling you
48:42
cannot be trusted with
governance. But that's where we
48:45
are.
48:47
Adam Curry: That's a big show.
It's a big show to be saying
48:49
that kind of stuff so big. Yeah,
48:51
John C Dvorak: he's definitely
going to find himself into a
48:53
heap of trouble is like Matt
Taibbi has been making the
48:57
rounds are with all kinds of
interesting stories. But, you
49:00
know, if you're a Democrat
during within the last decade,
49:04
and you leave the party, this
would happen to Trump. Trump, I
49:07
think is one of the examples of
this. It's more of a cult than
49:11
anything else, you leave, they
go after you they don't go after
49:15
you. They don't go after me
because I left a democrat party
49:19
in this late 70s. So I'm, I'm
exempt. But the recent Democrat
49:25
Party, people are all in a in a
call. He just said kibali Just I
49:30
almost said cabal but a cult is
what I really mean it because
49:33
when you leave a cult, they go
after you that's what all cults
49:36
do. Yeah. And so Weinstein is in
for a heap of trouble. Just by
49:41
that that clip right there is
gonna get him into hot water.
49:45
You watch Well,
49:47
Adam Curry: he's, he's, you
know, the I think he's very
49:50
malleable. You know, he's these
these words are not just his
49:53
people are talking to him. You
know, the Dream Team. The Dream
49:57
Team is talking to him. Matt Lee
are Buddy in the State
50:00
Department is back. And it's
always fun to have Matt Lee back
50:05
on deck. I don't know why it's
been so long. We haven't heard
50:07
from him. And now we have
President Biden saying, oh, you
50:12
know, this Israel response was
over the top. It's over the top.
50:19
All right. And I guess it was
solid. And maybe who said, Well,
50:24
you know, we we've got many
levers. We told them Israelis
50:27
what we're gonna do, we told
them what to do. We were mercker
50:30
Murca. And Matt leaves have none
of it.
50:32
Unknown: What lovers? Have you
used?
50:35
So we have used diplomatically
levers, the Secretary, that
50:39
means, Victoria and the
president and you and Kirby and
50:43
whoever else standing up and
saying, wagging your finger and
50:46
saying that that's not really
leverage.
50:49
We have engaged with them on a
at a multitude of levels at this
50:56
administration. And and, as I
50:59
Adam Curry: you could literally
be in Matt Lee's chair. I love
51:04
that multitude. What does that
mean a multitude administration?
51:07
Unknown: And and as I kind of
you look at the list that we
51:11
just went through with whomever
we have seen them take steps at
51:15
our urging that have had real,
real tangible impact with but
51:19
they have not been enough. But
what levers have you
51:21
actually, I
51:23
think the that when the United
States of America stands up and
51:27
says something publicly it
matters?
51:29
Adam Curry: No, it doesn't.
51:31
Unknown: But you had, and we
haven't said no. And we've been
51:35
any consequences. My to my
point, we have seen money, or
51:40
military systems. But we have
been the policies we have
51:45
pursued, we have seen
improvements along these
51:48
specific areas. Okay, we've seen
tangible improvements. Again,
51:53
asking you
51:53
what the average
51:54
has also, I want the average
have you brought to bear I just
51:59
went through what have you gone?
I think the words of the
52:02
President United States the
words of the Secretary of State
52:04
matter and holding the top and
we have seen, we have seen the
52:09
Government of Israel respond to
not always in the way that we
52:13
want not always to the degree
that we want, or to the level
52:16
that we want, but the the our
interventions, we believe have
52:19
had an impact, and we will
continue to pursue them because
52:21
we we believe they do.
52:23
Adam Curry: What Matt Lee is
pointing out is that Israel has
52:26
some huge leverage on the
administration. And they have
52:29
nothing Well, we told them you
calm down no culus burgers in
52:35
the Netherlands, who
interestingly have a large part
52:39
to play with the F 35 supply
chain. They took a totally
52:43
different track. And the same
defense minister we heard
52:47
earlier all in on drones for
Ukraine. ropes, no more F 35
52:52
parts for Israel
52:53
Unknown: and appeals court in
the Netherlands has ordered the
52:56
government to stop F 35 parts
deliveries to Israel, the ruling
53:01
takes effect within the next
seven days. And for more on this
53:05
story, we can go across to
Fanon, Van Ted standing by at
53:08
the Hague for now. What exactly
is this ruling? And will it have
53:12
an impact? So
53:14
there was an audible gostilna in
the court as this verdict came
53:17
through this quote saying that
the Netherlands needs to
53:20
reconsider its export license
for those F 35 parts to Israel,
53:26
because there is a serious risk
of violations to international
53:29
humanitarian law. And thus, this
is how the minister should rule.
53:34
Now this is centered around the
small town of rooms dressed in
53:37
Robins here, which is where the
F 35 regional warehouse is,
53:41
which is where all European
partners have the F 35 program
53:45
and Israel are supplied with our
F 35 Spare parts. Now, the
53:50
minister had argued that she had
read looked at this general
53:54
export license which was given
in 2016 after October 7, but in
53:58
light of Israel's right to self
defense and political
54:01
considerations such as the Dutch
relationship with the United
54:05
States and Israel had decided to
continue exporting those parts
54:09
the judges here now said that
that was the wrong decision.
54:12
They say it is clear that there
are violations to international
54:14
humanitarian law taking place in
Gaza due to the large number of
54:17
civilian casualties there
including children and that
54:21
within seven days or export of
parts to the F 35 jet to Israel
54:25
must stop
54:27
Adam Curry: do they went in
overruled through the courts?
54:30
You're done? This is very
interesting.
54:33
John C Dvorak: You know, got it
caused some problems of back
54:35
channel well,
54:37
Adam Curry: it's about time for
some of that Epstein video
54:39
footage to come out. If they're
gonna if there is blackmail
54:45
going on. Which Which seems
apparent. Why else with the
54:48
United States who Oh, we said
it's over the top and that'll
54:51
slow them down. No. So is
everyone all afraid? Oh, they
54:58
might. I mean, it's time for
some more Epstein client lists
55:02
stories
55:05
John C Dvorak: yeah well sure
they get plenty of Pete dictum
55:07
lists must be a mile long
55:08
Adam Curry: yeah but my point is
that whenever they need to
55:12
John C Dvorak: get everyone
anyone needs something to get
55:14
done yeah
55:15
Adam Curry: then then all of a
sudden they go oh god I've
55:17
released another client was How
about just do some pictures so
55:20
we can call them AI generated
Come on, come on, let's do it.
55:24
Let's spice up the show people.
I'm tired of waiting.
55:31
John C Dvorak: Which is about
have a couple of little side
55:33
bits here. While I do have this
some Gaza news, so I'm gonna
55:37
play these business of funny
stuff here that doesn't get in
55:40
the mainstream. So I got it from
NTD and this is the two
55:44
hostages, no deal and TD clips
and there's those three of these
55:48
clips.
55:49
Unknown: This is in di D things
are heating up across Israel's
55:53
northern border with Lebanon and
an Israeli official says they
55:57
are preparing for war in the
north. This comes as the Israeli
56:00
military says that to Al Jazeera
reporters are also Hamas
56:04
terrorists entities Jason Perry
has the latest on Israel
56:09
recently released footage of a
mission in which Israeli
56:12
soldiers rescue two hostages.
Israel said they used explosives
56:16
to breach the building and heavy
gunfire followed. Israeli troops
56:22
were then seen going up the
stairs to the second floor of
56:25
the building where they rescued
the hostages. Those two former
56:28
hostages said this on Wednesday.
56:32
I want to say thank you to all
the people of Israel and to the
56:35
security forces who brought us
home recording system. I want to
56:40
say thank you to all those who
participated in this complex
56:44
operation to the IDF to the
security forces to all the
56:48
soldiers who made us really feel
that we were being brought home.
56:52
And both of them said they hoped
that remaining hostages would be
56:55
released and in regard to a
possible ceasefire to release
56:59
the over 100 hostages who remain
in the Gaza Strip. Officials
57:03
from the United States, Egypt,
Israel and Qatar met in Egypt on
57:07
Tuesday for ceasefire
negotiations. But according to
57:11
reports, no deal was reached.
And apparently there was not
57:15
even a date announced for their
next meeting to continue the
57:18
talks.
57:20
John C Dvorak: Now there's
something about these two
57:21
hostages, which kind of and it
was brought to the four by the
57:24
what this guy said one of the
hostage he says, hey, they
57:27
brought us and made us feel like
we were actually going back
57:30
home.
57:32
Adam Curry: It was I think that
if it was all an act, it was it
57:36
was meant to obfuscate the
obvious bombing that happened on
57:39
on Super Bowl Sunday.
57:42
John C Dvorak: Well, it would
did definitely did that. But why
57:44
are these two hostages? You
know? It just doesn't make
57:47
sense. If you had these two
guys, out in the middle of
57:51
nowhere, they're not with the
rest of the hostages. So you
57:53
can't you know, where are the
hostages? And why are these two
57:56
guys where they are? And why are
they saying well, it's it was
57:59
great. We got back home and made
us feel like we were really
58:01
coming home. And what does that
mean? This whole hostage thing
58:06
was just a scam of some sort.
You're
58:09
Adam Curry: gonna get us banned.
The the Israel is now banning
58:13
foreign media or they're
threatening to know me. There's
58:16
no media here, stop reporting.
And
58:19
John C Dvorak: so the thing that
which brings us to clip two
58:22
there, this if this is true,
which makes sense that it might
58:27
be because I think the unrar
thing that UN agencies also
58:31
Adam Curry: thought was very
suspicious. Yeah, just like the
58:34
White Helmets. And
58:35
John C Dvorak: this is this
part, which did mainstream media
58:38
in this country hasn't touched.
But I think it's definitely
58:41
worth the discussion. Part two
of this
58:43
Unknown: Israeli Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu said Hamas
58:46
didn't offer anything new in
their proposal. Hamas apparently
58:50
still demands that Israel in the
war completely before they will
58:54
release the hostages.
58:56
Ai insists that Hamas should
abandon its delusional demands
59:00
and when it does, we will be
able to move forward
59:03
and in another development this
week and IDF spokesman to Arab
59:08
media said in a statement on X
that Israeli forces recovered a
59:12
laptop in the Gaza Strip, and
pictures on the laptop showed
59:15
that an Al Jazeera reporter is
also a senior military operative
59:20
and the Hamas terrorists. And on
Wednesday, the IDF spokesman
59:24
posted a picture of another
alleged Al Jazeera reporter who
59:27
filmed himself in an Israeli
village during the October 7
59:31
massacre. We reached out to
AlJazeera for comment, but we
59:35
didn't hear back before airtime.
59:36
Adam Curry: All right, we must
remember a couple things. One,
59:40
we still have no resolution and
it quickly gets forgotten. As to
59:44
how this this fence this border,
the security fence could be so
59:49
violated and broken through with
hours of a lack of response.
59:54
Because that's just fallen off
the radar. We don't talk about
59:57
that anymore. How do we do well
we do But so that just that
1:00:03
makes no sense. And you've got
to start questioning the motives
1:00:08
of, quote unquote leaders of all
countries about what's really
1:00:13
going on here. The second thing
we need to remember is that
1:00:16
these leaders, they don't care
about people. They don't care.
1:00:21
They don't care how many they
have to kill, how many die,
1:00:24
they've got to some boy,
whatever the whatever the reason
1:00:27
for all this is, they don't
care. They'll just do whatever.
1:00:32
And then we sit here, even you
and I like whoa, listen to the
1:00:34
news. No, okay, just
1:00:36
Unknown: making sure we that's
what we're paid to
1:00:39
Adam Curry: do. What's below
makes nothing but sense.
1:00:44
John C Dvorak: Why are we doing
this? I don't matter here.
1:00:48
Sorry, three. Also,
1:00:50
Unknown: on Wednesday, I'll
cross Israel's northern border,
1:00:52
Hezbollah terrorists and Lebanon
fired a barrage of rockets into
1:00:56
northern Israel, killing one
woman and injuring eight others.
1:01:00
In response to the attacks.
Israel Defense Forces reported
1:01:04
striking a series of targets in
Lebanon, and the Chief of the
1:01:08
General Staff of the IDF said
they are preparing for war in
1:01:11
the north.
1:01:13
Adam Curry: This is just west
Clarke seven just unfolding
1:01:16
before us is that's all kind of
1:01:18
John C Dvorak: look, this is
slow. That's all of it. Now,
1:01:20
it's conceivable one little side
clip here I want to play. And
1:01:25
this is because the first thing
that came to mind when I heard
1:01:29
this clip, and I thought to
myself, what was Tucker Carlson
1:01:34
really doing in Russia? Meeting
with Putin? Is it possible that
1:01:41
Adam Curry: he was passing off a
USB stick?
1:01:44
John C Dvorak: He was doing some
let me they're saying is it
1:01:47
possible that he was doing
something and this something may
1:01:50
be involved with this particular
clip? play this clip this is the
1:01:54
clip is prisoner exchange.
Meanwhile,
1:01:57
Unknown: a possible prisoner
exchange could be in the works
1:02:00
between Russia and the US. The
Kremlin refused to comment on
1:02:04
the state of negotiations when
asked today. It restated that
1:02:07
such cases must be resolved in
silence. The US is seeking the
1:02:12
release of former Marine Paul
Whelan and form and reporter
1:02:15
Evan Gorsky vich, both held in
Russian prisons on spy charges
1:02:19
they denied. Secretary of State
Antony Blinken said yesterday
1:02:22
that he had spoken to Whalen and
a rare phone call. Russian
1:02:26
President Vladimir Putin
suggested in an interview with
1:02:29
American journalist Tucker
Carlson last week, that in
1:02:32
return for Herskovits Moscow
wants Germany to free bottom
1:02:35
Cresco volve crosscut cough was
convicted of murdering a Chechen
1:02:39
dissident in Berlin.
1:02:42
Adam Curry: It could be it's
possible I mean, I don't know
1:02:46
you'd have
1:02:46
John C Dvorak: to have some face
to face once in a while. But
1:02:48
with this Ukrainian situation
going on, you need to get a
1:02:51
third party and neutral guy in
there. Who's got nothing to do
1:02:54
with the State Department, the
US government or anything else
1:02:56
coming
1:02:57
Adam Curry: to Kansas but
1:02:57
John C Dvorak: he's always
wanted to be a spook
1:02:59
Adam Curry: that they can just
pick up the phone. I don't know.
1:03:04
But on his way home and tuck our
stuff stopped off at the World
1:03:08
Government con conference. I
1:03:11
John C Dvorak: saw that too. And
he
1:03:13
Adam Curry: was interviewed.
Well,
1:03:14
John C Dvorak: I'm sorry, hard
to clear. We
1:03:16
Adam Curry: looked we looked at
his crotch for 36 minutes was
1:03:19
the worst camera shot ever. You
know, but with that, that huge
1:03:23
dude behind and besides him
asking questions. Well, they're
1:03:26
side by side very uncomfortable,
hard to clip, also
1:03:29
uninteresting. It was just
uninteresting. And why would
1:03:33
that shot if his crush it just
the customer was decent amateur
1:03:37
John C Dvorak: amateurs. But so
or maybe not. Maybe it was I
1:03:42
could do some jokes here. I'm
not going to use. But how about
1:03:45
this, go back to this the idea
of Tucker going back there to
1:03:50
set up this prisoner exchange.
One of the things that Putin
1:03:57
wants is this guy that killed
the Chechnya and guy. Yeah. And
1:04:01
he wants him out. He wants them
back in Russia. And in their
1:04:05
interview, Putin did discuss the
CIA being involved in this, that
1:04:09
and the other thing and he and
he got out which something is
1:04:12
never been done on American
media. He got out what he
1:04:16
considers the fact that the
Chechen situation was set up and
1:04:22
executed by the CIA is what he
says and arm narrative about the
1:04:27
Chesty and thing is that it was
all established by by Putin, he
1:04:32
set it up, so he could burn down
the big apartment building and
1:04:35
kill a bunch of Chechnya's and
remember that yes, okay. That's
1:04:39
been going on. And I don't think
Putin likes that narrative. It
1:04:43
may or may not be true. None of
this all this by the way we're
1:04:46
discussing may or may not be
true, but it just a lot of scams
1:04:50
going on and so far is trying to
get us to think one way or the
1:04:53
other, but couldn't got that
into the public domain. This
1:04:56
little See, I think the idea
would be this. We want to get
1:04:59
these two Americans back. What
do we have to do? Putin says,
1:05:03
I'll do an interview with
Tucker. I have to discuss the
1:05:06
CIA get involved in Chechnya. I
want that guy back from Germany.
1:05:10
And then you can have your,
your, your spook and your
1:05:13
journalist back. And we'll be
good to go. And but but you're
1:05:17
gonna have to set it up in in a
secret, like just this last
1:05:21
week,
1:05:21
Adam Curry: telling me that
that's really the level of
1:05:23
importance of things that these
guys are thinking about. I just
1:05:26
don't want to look like a
douche. i Okay. Yeah,
1:05:32
John C Dvorak: exactly. She's
taken. And there's no
1:05:37
explanation for Tucker. Oh, I've
been trying to do this interview
1:05:40
for a decade, blah, blah, blah.
This whole Tucker thing and this
1:05:44
boring interview, I think was
just to get Tucker over there to
1:05:48
set the set up things because
he's always wanted to be a
1:05:52
spook, he said, So himself, set
things up. Okay for the Russians
1:05:56
to do this trade, because
there's no reason for this, this
1:05:58
prisoner. Transfer this trade to
happen. Now, coincidentally,
1:06:04
like a couple of days after
Tucker shows up? Well,
1:06:07
Adam Curry: you've successfully
ruin any chances of me ever
1:06:10
appearing on Tucker show, that's
for sure. That's never gonna
1:06:13
happen. Now.
1:06:14
John C Dvorak: Why? Maybe I
ruined my chances. I didn't ruin
1:06:17
your chances. You're defending
Tiger. I can hear it.
1:06:19
Adam Curry: No, I'm not. I'm
not. Because I what he did for
1:06:23
me is he reminded me that the
World Government Congress
1:06:26
conference was on in I think, is
Dubai. And I was like, Oh,
1:06:31
that's right. That's where all
these douchebags get together
1:06:34
and tell us how they're going to
rule us in the future. Exactly.
1:06:38
And luckily, our boy Schwab was
there. And he laid it out seven
1:06:44
Unknown: years ago, after having
written a book about evolution,
1:06:51
I showed houses evolution will
change how we live, how we act,
1:06:58
how we communicate, how we
produce, and how we consume.
1:07:03
Now, we are speaking not just
about to foresee this
1:07:07
revolution, we are speaking
about the transition of human
1:07:13
kind into a new era. We speak
about transition into what I
1:07:20
would call the intelligent age.
situation. Unfold unfolds within
1:07:27
a society where artificial
intelligence, robotics, Internet
1:07:33
of Things.
1:07:38
John C Dvorak: Internet of
Things, internet
1:07:41
Adam Curry: of things, things
1:07:44
Unknown: Internet of Things. So
3d printing, genetic
1:07:48
engineering, quantum computing,
some foundations of our daily
1:07:55
lives. Okay,
1:07:56
Adam Curry: so he's setting it
up was the Internet of Things,
1:08:00
saying quantum computing, I just
want to point out quantum
1:08:03
computing on deck on deck. But
He's warming he's really talking
1:08:08
about a global warming. What
does it what is
1:08:14
John C Dvorak: it when this guy
is when his head is on a stick?
1:08:19
Do you think his mouth should be
a gape? Or somebody should wire
1:08:23
it shut? What do you think?
1:08:25
Adam Curry: What I like about
this is that this is how these
1:08:28
people are thinking. It doesn't
mean that it's true, but it is
1:08:33
true how they think and they're
all in because they're dumb.
1:08:36
They are dumb. That's why
they're doing this job. It's
1:08:39
because it's a it's a dumb job,
and you just get fat and drunk
1:08:43
and parked. You have a good
time. So it's really about
1:08:47
transhumanist control. Here's
your Swaby boy.
1:08:52
Unknown: So future is not
happening. We particularly you
1:08:57
as government leaders, you are
shaping the future. So what does
1:09:02
it mean for government leaders?
We don't want to move into using
1:09:10
the Fourth Industrial Revolution
into a cold. Walker. See,
1:09:15
Adam Curry: that's exactly what
you want. So that's why you're
1:09:17
saying we don't want to do it.
1:09:19
Unknown: We don't want to move
into a technocracy. Yes, you do.
1:09:25
What we want to do we want to
move in what I would call a
1:09:33
jubile NACA see
1:09:35
a human na cracy
1:09:37
a world where we use technology
to use all our human potential
1:09:44
and to create even a better
world. Thank you.
1:09:47
Adam Curry: Yes, thank you know,
1:09:49
John C Dvorak: Man, this guy.
1:09:51
Adam Curry: Let's just check in
with the public and see how
1:09:53
that's going. How are we? How
are we doing with all of this AI
1:09:57
as the internet as the saying
close
1:09:59
Unknown: call in the crowd?
crosswalk as these adults in San
1:10:01
Francisco rush to kids out of
the way to avoid being hit, and
1:10:05
then do a double take as they
watch the car cruise by with no
1:10:09
driver, so called a robo taxi is
operated by crews.
1:10:13
Adam Curry: Did you see that?
What happened to the way Moe car
1:10:15
in San Francisco?
1:10:17
John C Dvorak: Yeah, we talked
about in the last show I
1:10:18
Adam Curry: thought it was no no
no no we didn't talk about it on
1:10:21
the show. Tell us tell you live
there he boots on the ground.
1:10:24
What happened to the way Moe
vehicle?
1:10:25
John C Dvorak: Well, there was a
it was like an event into it I
1:10:30
think was in the Castro district
in some way mo car comes into
1:10:32
the area and the it stops and
then Janice traffic and there's
1:10:36
a bunch of they always have
these issues. They get no
1:10:38
traffic and they can't get out.
They suck. And so somebody
1:10:41
decided to just for Chinese New
Year. And so somebody decided to
1:10:46
bust a Windows out of the thing.
And then they threw a bunch of
1:10:49
firecrackers in there caught the
thing on fire. And then it
1:10:52
started catching it burning to
the ground. People were cheering
1:10:55
and yelling and circling it and
jumping up and down. It was like
1:11:00
it was like some sort of a side
Bible thing from
1:11:04
Adam Curry: Samoa or like a
science fiction movie. We're
1:11:07
we're happy we got one of them.
We got one of the
1:11:09
John C Dvorak: boards. Got one.
Let's see what was missing was
1:11:12
tying it up.
1:11:13
Adam Curry: Let's listen to
Dutch member of European
1:11:16
Parliament, Rob Rose, who will
tell us really exactly what the
1:11:20
plan is the
1:11:21
Unknown: bureaucrats centralist
in Brussels are addicted to
1:11:24
power. They use or abuse every
crisis, financial crisis, COVID
1:11:31
crisis, Ukraine crisis, energy
crisis. And the solution is
1:11:37
always the same. And the
professor already said it more
1:11:40
European Union if there's no
crisis, and that's the second
1:11:45
point, if there's no crisis,
they create the crisis. For
1:11:52
example, climate change, they
call it an existential threat.
1:11:58
And the solution is the Green
Deal.
1:12:03
The Green Deal destroyed our
1:12:05
energy system, it is destroying
our food system. They are trying
1:12:12
to control co2. But if you
control co2, co2, you you
1:12:19
control people because
everything we do in life is
1:12:22
about co2 emissions, living,
breathing, eating, traveling,
1:12:27
living. So if you can control
that you can control people's
1:12:30
lives. Now they introduced the
digital identity and the central
1:12:34
bank digital currency. So they
can see everything we do, and
1:12:38
they can control everything
1:12:41
we do because they can shut off
shut off our
1:12:46
our financial system whenever
they want. We have seen it
1:12:50
already in Canada during the
COVID crisis. Yes,
1:12:54
Adam Curry: exactly. And I think
that there's some some opposite
1:12:58
play. Intentionally,
unintentionally, I'm not sure
1:13:03
all ops would be intentional.
This was a very odd report, if a
1:13:08
local ABC report that this is
happening tells me that we need
1:13:13
some solutions and the banks
can't do it. They're no good.
1:13:16
Unknown: I hadn't tapped it. I
hadn't inserted it. I hadn't
1:13:19
swiped it. And then all of a
sudden, out comes the receipt.
1:13:22
And I said how did this get paid
for? The cashier couldn't
1:13:25
explain it. She stood there
literally just sort of blank. I
1:13:29
really thought that the guy
ahead of me that he had been
1:13:32
charged. I said somebody paid
for this on a credit card
1:13:35
somewhere. Turns out the tap to
pay card reader and Safeway had
1:13:39
ignored the debit card and
Edgar's hand. Instead it reached
1:13:42
into Edgar's back pocket through
his wallet and charged his Bank
1:13:47
of America credit card tucked
inside. That's a pretty big
1:13:50
reach. I mean, around me or
threw me to my wallet. Why
1:13:54
didn't you grab the card that
was narrowed? How did it decide
1:13:57
what to grab?
1:13:58
I was shocked. I was like, Well,
it can't
1:14:00
be bizarre. He says it happened
at a doctor's office. They
1:14:04
went to pay and they said you're
already paid and I said I
1:14:09
haven't inserted my card. I
haven't even taken it out of my
1:14:12
wallet.
1:14:13
Turns out the card reader there
had sent radio waves into her
1:14:16
purse and charged her credit
card without her knowing it and
1:14:21
that wasn't all sign you got an
even bigger surprise at a little
1:14:25
shop
1:14:25
woman said Oh my It's just read
three cards.
1:14:30
The store is kept to pay system
charge. Not only one but three
1:14:35
credit cards tucked in a wallet
inside her purse.
1:14:39
I'd say I was two feet away at
that point for sure all
1:14:42
charges were reversed but it was
troubling.
1:14:47
Adam Curry: This, this doesn't
sound real to me. Sounds
1:14:51
John C Dvorak: like bull crap to
me too. Now my cards are in a
1:14:55
wallet that has a Faraday
Faraday cage Faraday cage court
1:15:00
Of course, but, but when I pull
the card out to have it read on
1:15:04
one of these things I have to
fight it. Yeah, move it around.
1:15:07
I gotta flip it over.
1:15:09
Adam Curry: It doesn't right I'm
struggling
1:15:10
John C Dvorak: for Hey, gotta
read the card and now I give up
1:15:13
and I stick it in. But generally
There you go. There's a line for
1:15:17
you. Yep. Now I'm worried. So
you know, so you fool around
1:15:21
your foot so I took for the fact
that thing that one guy says it
1:15:24
went through his body into his
wallet in his you know, reached
1:15:29
around reached it was reached
around bull crap this is these
1:15:33
stories are being planted for
some reason. Okay, you brought
1:15:36
him up? Yeah, what's the reason
Oh, we
1:15:40
Adam Curry: have to have a new a
new banking system. This is no
1:15:42
longer secure the that can only
be Federal Reserve fed. Now I
1:15:47
don't want to say
1:15:47
John C Dvorak: CBDs reach around
it with it anyway, if it's one
1:15:51
of these cards, no no. Huge RFID
range hollows
1:15:55
Adam Curry: on which the body we
just said is bullcrap story
1:15:58
because the way the RFID works
is the signal goes out is
1:16:04
reflected back the energy is
reflected back by the trip in
1:16:08
your card. That's the part that
is just not going to happen at
1:16:11
too far distance in less power.
I mean, does it amplify one on
1:16:16
one does it go in at 10 Watts
and come out 10 watts? I doubt
1:16:19
it. So it's just not a true
story. That's why it's a local
1:16:23
story. It's not a true story.
And this is to discredit banks
1:16:28
to discredit your tap to pay
probably to discredit Google Pay
1:16:32
and Apple Pay and all this
stuff. This is there's an
1:16:34
opposite play. A pay a pay play
to pop up pop pop up, pay up
1:16:39
play
1:16:40
John C Dvorak: something like
that, but from the forces of
1:16:42
cash
1:16:43
Adam Curry: flow of good the
forces of cash Okay, Boomer.
1:16:52
That ship has long sailed and
Oh, I'm so long sales.
1:16:57
John C Dvorak: I know in
Berkeley for example, they
1:16:59
started landing all these all
these all, you know, use a
1:17:03
credit card here and there and
then became a city ordinance.
1:17:07
No, you can't because the
homeless don't have credit
1:17:09
cards. And they may want to go
into a place and buy a hamburger
1:17:12
a homeless person. All they have
is cash and they have to go and
1:17:15
abuse cash to buy the burger.
1:17:16
Adam Curry: How about how about
this? How about Satoshi Nakamoto
1:17:20
telling everyone to use Bitcoin?
I mean, that's just as you buy a
1:17:23
burger with Bitcoin. That
depends what still hasn't
1:17:30
arrived. By the way. While I
sent it.
1:17:33
John C Dvorak: I think there's
something going on with the post
1:17:35
office. No, well, that's totally
possible. There was this we had
1:17:40
a guy there's just been too many
anomalous really old mail that
1:17:45
was like you look at the update.
Why is it taking so long to get
1:17:48
to me? It used to be like three
days for mail pretty much from
1:17:51
any shipped anywhere in the
country to get to the post
1:17:54
office box. Now it's 578 10.
What happened? Just so
1:17:58
Adam Curry: you know, I sent it
from my bank, so they sent the
1:18:01
cheque. So there could be a
delay there. I don't know. It's
1:18:05
a great way to send cash. And I
add a check. And I sent it to
1:18:09
the PIO box. So do you been to
the PIO box? Yeah, yesterday.
1:18:13
Okay. Well, maybe it's there
today. We had another
1:18:17
John C Dvorak: so it came in
from the bank. How did this I
1:18:20
kind of just get mixed right in
with no agenda stuff?
1:18:23
Adam Curry: It says John C.
Dvorak, which
1:18:26
John C Dvorak: not a no agenda
stuff comes to Jhansi. Dvorak at
1:18:29
that post office.
1:18:30
Adam Curry: But yeah, from Adam
curry.
1:18:32
John C Dvorak: Well, not if it
came not from yourself is from
1:18:36
some bang, it'll be
1:18:37
Adam Curry: front. It'll be a
printed check for me. And the
1:18:39
last time I did this, you said
Never send it that house, send
1:18:42
it to the PIO box. You literally
told me this because the light?
1:18:47
John C Dvorak: Yes, but I didn't
realize that it was coming for
1:18:49
some anonymous bank. It's
1:18:51
Adam Curry: not an anonymous
bank. It'll be a check that says
1:18:54
Adam curry on the check.
1:18:55
John C Dvorak: Okay, if it says
Adam Korean Did you ever see I
1:18:57
don't see. I don't see it on the
spreadsheet. If I see Adam curry
1:19:01
on the spreadsheet.
1:19:04
Adam Curry: Sorry, I'm
deducting. That's an interesting
1:19:06
way
1:19:06
John C Dvorak: to recoup half of
this bet.
1:19:08
Adam Curry: No, I'm already
1:19:10
John C Dvorak: it's a smart
move. I've given you kudos for
1:19:13
what a great idea. No,
1:19:14
Adam Curry: it's I'm expensing
it as show content. Are you
1:19:17
kidding me? I'm writing it right
off like, oh, no, no, you
1:19:20
John C Dvorak: can regain half
of it the same way. I've seen
1:19:22
scams like this.
1:19:24
Adam Curry: Let's, let's talk
about something else. That
1:19:27
happened. That is not really
it's underreported. I had to
1:19:30
pick this up from Banyan show.
Mitch McConnell sister in law.
1:19:36
You know, he's married to a
Chinese.
1:19:38
John C Dvorak: Yeah, he's got
direct connections to the
1:19:40
People's Republic.
1:19:41
Adam Curry: So apparently, on
her ranch in Texas, she got into
1:19:47
her Tesla, and it backed up into
the water and she drowned
1:19:51
Unknown: with Angela child,
Helene child's sister. suddenly
1:19:56
passed away. We believe it's now
being reported on there. ranch
1:20:00
in Texas and the Tesla she was
driving was founded upon. Her
1:20:05
husband is Jim Brier, her Jim
buyers of famous investor
1:20:11
invested in Facebook was one of
the early investors in Facebook
1:20:14
and then went off and started
funneling a lot of money into
1:20:16
China through a company called
ADG. He's on the board of
1:20:20
another big China investor,
which is I believe he's on the
1:20:23
board of Blackstone, you know,
so he's got a lot of a lot of
1:20:27
China exposure. And here,
everybody's kind of shocked,
1:20:31
right? It's like there's a
mysterious passing away of, you
1:20:37
know, a prominent woman who was
on the board of directors of the
1:20:40
Bank of China, was involved in
the, you know, Macondo cause
1:20:44
shipping company. They've done a
lot in the shipping community,
1:20:48
the shipping community
disrupted, and there's just
1:20:50
mystery, there's no information.
There's all these articles on
1:20:53
Elaine Chao and her
relationships and everything
1:20:56
else. And all at the all at the
end, it says there was a car
1:20:59
accident, you know, and it was
it was reported by Kyle bass on
1:21:03
Twitter this morning, and it
started leaking out last night
1:21:05
that this was more drowning than
a car accident. And that was a
1:21:11
car on their ranch outside of
Austin, Texas.
1:21:16
Adam Curry: Maybe a two to the
head moment here. Well, I
1:21:19
John C Dvorak: mean, death by to
how hard is it to probe into
1:21:22
Tesla's just a computer with a
bunch of battery wheels? With
1:21:26
wheels? So how hard would it be
to program it to once you get in
1:21:32
under some circumstances pre
programmed to lock the door so
1:21:36
you can't get out? Back up into
the river? Or the lake or
1:21:42
whatever it is, I guess the lake
on the property just just go
1:21:44
into reverse because it can park
itself. You can let the thing go
1:21:47
and go find a parking spot. So
it can back up into the lake and
1:21:51
drown you all programmatically.
Is that a possibility? Anybody
1:21:56
out to you know, by the way,
Brunetti one system? Did you see
1:22:01
brunette? He's got one of those
stupid trucks. The
1:22:03
Adam Curry: Cyber truck? Yeah,
well, let's listen to this. Let
1:22:07
me just let me just tie into
what you're saying. First of
1:22:09
all, the Tesla doors are very
scary. There's lots of stories
1:22:15
of people were the word caught
on fire. They couldn't get out
1:22:18
because the doors wouldn't
unlock. It's, it's you know,
1:22:21
it's like a by wire thing. It's
not a direct
1:22:25
John C Dvorak: mechanical lock.
1:22:27
Adam Curry: China is definitely
trying to overtake the Evie
1:22:32
market or what's left of it. I
would say it could be an
1:22:36
industrial hit by China. So you
know, it's a little good but you
1:22:40
know, back back here into the
pond, you know, and the doors
1:22:44
may just have shorted out
whatever. The you know, they
1:22:47
definitely the
1:22:48
John C Dvorak: doors. I'm sorry.
You can backdoor into the pond.
1:22:51
You can lock the doors. No,
1:22:52
Adam Curry: I'm saying the doors
the minute you do it in drive it
1:22:54
the thing locks the doors, and
then she's back in and just done
1:22:58
is over panic and it's done.
Yeah, there's a lot of a lot of
1:23:02
pressure on
1:23:03
John C Dvorak: cars definitely
going to sink. It weighs a ton
1:23:06
more than most. it'll
1:23:07
Adam Curry: sink right into the
mud. Yeah, yeah. Okay. What
1:23:11
about Brunetti with a
1:23:12
John C Dvorak: cybernetic guy
himself? cybertruck and I'm
1:23:14
thinking there's somebody could
use the same trick to get rid of
1:23:18
him. Wow, be careful with these
things.
1:23:22
Adam Curry: Why would you say
that about a friend of the show?
1:23:26
No, I'm worried now. Why would
you wasn't
1:23:30
John C Dvorak: worried before
you ran this clip that anyone
1:23:33
who has a Tesla of any sort
could be assassinated? Hey,
1:23:37
Adam Curry: Dana. I love you
man. Don't worry about it. Don't
1:23:39
listen to John but don't drive
that thing. It's a total penis.
1:23:44
Oh
1:23:44
John C Dvorak: water.
1:23:45
Adam Curry: Yeah. You know it.
If it gets dirty if it gets bird
1:23:49
poop on it, you have to clean it
off right away because it might
1:23:51
hurt. Oh,
1:23:52
John C Dvorak: just stay I think
it was not mistaken. It's a
1:23:54
stainless steel. Body those that
stainless steel is not the first
1:23:59
thing you learn in laboratory.
Stainless steel is not
1:24:02
stainless.
1:24:05
Adam Curry: Just briefly on them
on the AI scam. headline, Sam
1:24:12
Altman wants $7 trillion.
1:24:15
John C Dvorak: Yeah, five to
seven. Yes. Here.
1:24:17
Adam Curry: Here's what was
interesting about this AI crap.
1:24:21
Each level up of a GPT. So now
we're I guess we're at GPT four.
1:24:27
So to go to GPT five, so we can
reach what do they call it?
1:24:32
Truly generative. Now what is
the term autonomous AI whatever
1:24:36
it is, where it thinks for
itself? Oh, yeah, that'll be the
1:24:39
day cost between 25 and 100
times the previous one. So and
1:24:48
So forget the compute power the
amount of energy needed. GPC for
1:24:53
took 50 gigawatt hours of energy
to train. So GPT five will need
1:25:00
Get 1500 gigawatt hours. What's
this this green? It's not the
1:25:07
whole thing's a scam and He's
smart. He's like I'm gonna go
1:25:10
Milby some chips, give me some
money.
1:25:13
John C Dvorak: He's not gonna
get anything soon. We're
1:25:14
Adam Curry: computing is next on
deck, baby. I'm telling you,
1:25:17
it's falling apart. None of it
works. You know, now they're
1:25:20
saying, Oh, the Microsoft thing
is not all that great. It's not
1:25:24
all that great. And I think in
general, there's moves now, to
1:25:30
get you know, to pressure
Silicon Valley, you guys got to
1:25:33
start paying us more we want
more lobbying money. And up
1:25:36
front and center is New York
City Mayor Eric Adams,
1:25:39
Unknown: my fellow New Yorkers.
This is a city built on
1:25:43
innovation and technology. Oh
really pleased.
1:25:46
Adam Curry: We all time potholes
and arrived yet and rats
1:25:49
Unknown: celebrate progress to
the future. Even as we have
1:25:55
created jobs, opportunity and
prosperity with new technology,
1:26:00
there have been unforeseen
consequences and dangerous,
1:26:05
especially when it comes to
social medias effect on the
1:26:09
mental health of our young
people. Over the past decade, we
1:26:14
have seen just how addictive and
overwhelming the online world
1:26:19
can be exposing children to
content, they are not ready for
1:26:24
disrupting the educational
process, and seriously damaging
1:26:28
their self esteem and wellbeing.
Our most recent data found that
1:26:34
young people in New York City
are experiencing anxiety,
1:26:38
hopelessness, and even attempted
suicide rates we have never seen
1:26:43
before. And there is growing
evidence that the power of
1:26:47
social media is a major cause.
This is a serious problem that
1:26:53
must be addressed. Now. That is
why earlier this morning, our
1:26:58
administration filed a lawsuit
against the companies that own
1:27:02
five major social media
platforms, Tik Tok, Instagram,
1:27:07
Facebook, Snapchat and YouTube.
As we announced last month in
1:27:13
the State of the City address we
must take action to protect our
1:27:17
children from harm online
including the growing dangers
1:27:22
presented by social media give
1:27:24
Adam Curry: me money Give me
money and this brings me to a
1:27:30
new exit strategy for you and I
I believe I have found an exit
1:27:35
strategy that we can we can even
involve the no agenda shop for
1:27:38
this I'm very excited about
this. This is some new medical
1:27:43
research. I feel that that we
have the insight we have the
1:27:50
knowledge we have certainly have
the the testing grounds we have
1:27:55
a lot of people who can test our
product and make sure it works.
1:28:00
This is a medical breakthrough.
People
1:28:02
Unknown: struggling with
depression may be able to ease
1:28:04
their symptoms with certain
scents familiar smells help
1:28:08
trigger life memories assisting
with depression recovery.
1:28:11
University of Pittsburgh
neuroscientist and social
1:28:14
workers found sense were more
effective than words to cue up
1:28:18
happy memories and reverse the
negative thoughts cycle they
1:28:22
believe familiar memory
triggering sense could play a
1:28:25
major role in aiding faster
smoother depression healing
1:28:29
motors are so powerful because
they engage the amygdala through
1:28:33
nerve connections. I'm
1:28:35
Adam Curry: thinking smells on a
stick
1:28:39
John C Dvorak: this this brother
come
1:28:41
Adam Curry: on. We can we can
work with all kinds of we have
1:28:45
lavender blossoms we got
lavender smells I'm this is what
1:28:50
an easy fix.
1:28:52
John C Dvorak: But this is
called is called smell smell
1:28:54
Agra fee what is the doer? Stink
therapy there's some word for
1:29:02
this. Steve been around for a
while stink
1:29:04
Adam Curry: therapy I think
therapy fragrance therapy. I'm
1:29:10
not sure what it would be
somebody
1:29:12
John C Dvorak: in the troll room
is should know right off the top
1:29:15
of their head what I'm talking
about. I'm having aromatherapy
1:29:19
aromatherapy.
1:29:21
Yeah, so there's not new
1:29:22
Adam Curry: Yeah, but but the
research is new. We can sell
1:29:25
diffusers. We it's the original
no agenda, amygdala shrinkage
1:29:30
package. This product okay. Its
product is the prime product I
1:29:37
John C Dvorak: feel about
product. Yeah, that's true.
1:29:39
Adam Curry: We don't like
product. I would like to play
1:29:41
one clip by Bobby The up. It's
his latest campaign.
1:29:46
advertisement. It's not on
television. By the way. Let's
1:29:50
just stop for a sec. Did you see
his campaign? Do you see any of
1:29:54
the Superbowl Do you see his
campaign and I
1:29:56
John C Dvorak: saw the ad and I
will say this within the Add
1:30:00
there was a picture of the
Kennedy the classic Kennedy 19.
1:30:04
I think it's 1960 or 64 bumper
sticker, the Kennedy bumper
1:30:09
sticker guide, and that which is
a very straight and very
1:30:13
straightforward looking bumper
sticker I have, I believe about
1:30:17
100 of these things. I stored
them away back in the day when I
1:30:21
was a little kid, and I still
have them. Do you know where to
1:30:26
put them up for sale?
1:30:28
Adam Curry: Put your hands on
them?
1:30:31
John C Dvorak: I believe I know
where they are. Yes. Oh, and you
1:30:33
Adam Curry: save them? Since you
were a little kid. You are a
1:30:35
true archivist. Jhansi No, oh,
I'm so impressed. I
1:30:38
John C Dvorak: have these these
stickers. And they're this.
1:30:40
They're classic Kennedy sticker.
Now I would have preferred to
1:30:45
have like big collection of
something else. But these these
1:30:47
are classics and there were in
that ad. Excellent.
1:30:51
Adam Curry: By the way, there
was no they did the Jesus ad.
1:30:55
Did you see the Jesus ad that
1:30:57
John C Dvorak: Jesus is us or
whatever it is? Yeah. Does that
1:31:01
ad has been going around for a
while?
1:31:02
Adam Curry: Well, I hadn't seen
it. And it's all these AI of
1:31:05
like blatantly AI images. Here's
the thing. So they have Jesus
1:31:10
washing everybody's feet trans
person, and then the prostitute.
1:31:16
I'm sorry, the prostitute washed
Jesus's feet. Jesus only washed
1:31:23
the apostles feets what who is
behind this ad?
1:31:27
John C Dvorak: prostitutes.
1:31:32
Adam Curry: All right, Bobby,
the up is a rather long clip.
1:31:35
And he plays I think it's a very
smart one. I don't know if it
1:31:38
gets any play or not. But he is
pulling out the black rock card,
1:31:44
which I think is
1:31:45
John C Dvorak: the Oh, yeah,
this this is actually quite
1:31:47
good. I'm glad you got this.
1:31:48
Adam Curry: I think it's a good
move. Because everybody across
1:31:51
the political spectrum hates
Black Rock. I don't Yes. I don't
1:31:54
think it's true. When he says
Blackrock owns it. And
1:31:57
BlackRock. Do they really own
more than 10%? In any company?
1:32:01
John C Dvorak: They're pretty.
They're their minority
1:32:03
shareholders, you know, with
everything they own. Yeah, they
1:32:05
may own a company or two. But
it's not what their style of
1:32:08
investing is. Exactly. They
1:32:10
Adam Curry: don't own it. But
that doesn't matter, because
1:32:13
it's politics. What a politician
lying. But I think it's very
1:32:17
effective. And it pretty much
sums up 16 years of no agenda
1:32:22
and few minutes is a
1:32:24
Unknown: war that should have
never happened. It's a war that
1:32:26
Russians tried repeatedly to
settle on terms that were very,
1:32:30
very beneficial to Ukraine, and
is the major thing they wanted.
1:32:34
John C Dvorak: Are you saying
something? No, no, just the
1:32:37
noise in your own clip.
1:32:39
Adam Curry: Oh, God, this
horrible
1:32:40
Unknown: was for us to keep NATO
out of the Ukraine. The big
1:32:45
military contractors want to add
new countries to NATO all the
1:32:49
time. Why? Then that country has
to conform its military
1:32:54
purchases, and NATO weapons
specifications, which means
1:32:58
certain companies North Northrop
Grumman, Raytheon, General
1:33:03
Dynamics, Boeing and Lockheed it
get a draft mark, to march 2022.
1:33:08
We committed 113 plane hours.
Just give you an example, we
1:33:14
could have built a home for
almost every homeless person in
1:33:17
this country. We then committed
another 24 billion since two
1:33:22
months ago. And now President
Biden is asking for another 60
1:33:25
million. But the big big
expenses are gonna come after
1:33:28
the war. When we have to rebuild
you have all the things that we
1:33:32
destroyed. Mitch McConnell was
as and we really afford 30
1:33:37
million at UK isn't a worry, is
really going to Ukraine is going
1:33:44
to American defense, nine
o'clock version. So he just
1:33:49
admitted as a money laundering
scheme. And who do you think oh,
1:33:53
is every one of those companies?
So Tim Scott, during the
1:33:58
Republican debate, said don't
worry, it's not a gift to
1:34:03
Ukraine. It's alone. Raise your
hand if you think that that laws
1:34:07
are getting paid back? Of
course, it's not. So why do they
1:34:11
call it alone? Because it they
call it a loan, they can impose
1:34:15
loan conditions? And what are
the loan conditions that we have
1:34:18
imposed on number one of extreme
austerity program. So if you're
1:34:23
poor and you great, you're going
to be poor forever. Number two,
1:34:27
most important Ukraine has to
put all of its assets up for
1:34:32
sale to multinational
corporations, including all of
1:34:36
its agricultural land, the
biggest single asset in Europe.
1:34:40
New grant there's in 1000 Years
War, fought over that lenders
1:34:44
richest farmland in the world is
the breadbasket of Europe.
1:34:47
500,000 kids homos, Ukrainians
have died to keep that planned
1:34:53
as part of Ukraine. They almost
certainly didn't know about this
1:34:57
on condition. They've already
sold the river sentiment. The
1:35:01
buyers were Dupont, Cargill, and
Monsanto. What do you think owns
1:35:07
all of those companies? Got
BlackRock? And then in December,
1:35:12
President Biden gave out the
contract to rebuild Ukraine. And
1:35:18
who do you think got that guy
contract? shows you're doing
1:35:23
this right in front of us. They
don't even care that we know
1:35:26
anymore. Because they know that
they can get away with it. And
1:35:29
how do they know that because
they haven't strategy. And as
1:35:34
all those strategies, which is
they keep us at war with each
1:35:38
other. It keeps us hating on
each other, to keep the
1:35:42
Republicans and Democrats
fighting each other and black
1:35:45
against white and all these
divisions that they saw.
1:35:49
Adam Curry: There you go, that
like is PMS that he carries
1:35:52
around with him everywhere. It's
not true. I just saw the
1:35:57
contract didn't go to black
rock.
1:36:00
John C Dvorak: So let's go I'm
just looking at just randomly
1:36:03
grabbed Monsanto's
1:36:05
Adam Curry: list of shareholders
ownership structure. Sure.
1:36:09
John C Dvorak: So we have
Blackrock death for different
1:36:12
divisions of Blackrock owned the
following percentage of what
1:36:19
there's another one that wishes
minor, there's four okay,
1:36:22
there's four divisions,
different parts of Blackrock
1:36:25
men, they got all kinds of
little comput little bits and
1:36:28
pieces. There's
1:36:28
Adam Curry: no one said they
weren't good. I mean, they know
1:36:30
what the rock institutional
1:36:32
John C Dvorak: trust the big boy
wants 2.2% of Monsanto, wow,
1:36:37
Blackrock wishes a lot.
BlackRock fund advisors another
1:36:42
little spin of subset it owns
1.24, which brings it up to 3.6.
1:36:48
BlackRock Group, Ltd owns point
seven 4% and BlackRock advisors
1:36:55
owns point one, five. So maybe
4% of Monsanto is held by
1:37:02
Blackrock so this is not owning
in the sense that the public
1:37:06
would see it. Oh, by the way,
Black Rock Japan wins point one
1:37:11
one that's a good one. They own
a lot of stock, but it's like
1:37:16
they you know, and they have a
lot of influence because that's
1:37:18
a lot of voters when it comes to
the voting stock. But that's not
1:37:23
the same as we think of when we
think of somebody owning it.
1:37:27
They own for it say they own if
they own to 5% That's still just
1:37:31
5%
1:37:32
Adam Curry: How about Vanguard
because I think that that's the
1:37:35
real you know, Blackrock gets
all the bad press
1:37:40
John C Dvorak: Oh, they're just
not even on this list with
1:37:42
Monsanto. Oh,
1:37:43
Adam Curry: I have I'm looking
at Vanguards when is this from I
1:37:49
don't have I don't have to Oh,
this 2013 I'll bet you Vanguard
1:37:54
owns more that's what all the
politics all the politicians are
1:37:58
in Vanguard. That's what they
all get in on then the funny
1:38:02
thing is that you just have you
know this you just get it on the
1:38:05
bonds. I love the inflation
report. That made sense. Yeah,
1:38:12
everybody inflation Oh, it's not
going down. Mm hmm. What are the
1:38:19
chances I bet you they're going
to raise rates this year.
1:38:23
John C Dvorak: Nobody sees that.
That's what they should do.
1:38:28
Yeah, nobody nobody sees that
and they don't expect it and
1:38:31
they're waiting for more rate
cuts.
1:38:35
Adam Curry: Well, the jobs
report has been pulled apart by
1:38:38
all kinds of people.
1:38:40
John C Dvorak: And my favorite
part of the jobs report pull
1:38:42
apart was the fact that most of
the jobs that are are from been
1:38:47
given to illegal aliens well
there's there's that breakout
1:38:52
Yeah,
1:38:53
Adam Curry: that that government
jobs and a lot of people got a
1:38:55
second or third job. Right. And
I'm seeing like the restaurant
1:38:59
industry every young person I
know in the restaurant industry
1:39:02
has to get a second job because
the hours are being cut. I don't
1:39:08
know if people just not going
out to eat I don't know. It's
1:39:11
too expensive. The
1:39:11
John C Dvorak: restaurant
business right now is not a
1:39:14
business. I'd want to be out
good. Not good
1:39:16
Adam Curry: or, or the medical
device business who are striking
1:39:21
back. They're striking back at
ozempic. Here's a fun little
1:39:26
report on the medical
1:39:27
Unknown: watch bypassing
diabetes for the long haul.
1:39:30
medical reporter Dina bears here
with some new insight Dino
1:39:33
Florida
1:39:33
son Pat bypass surgery helps
patients lose weight and shed a
1:39:37
diabetes diagnosis. Now
researchers at the American
1:39:40
College of Surgeons say even if
the weight comes back diabetes
1:39:44
stays away. looking at data from
nearly 300 people treated at
1:39:48
Mayo Clinic from 2008 to 2017.
Doctors found gastric bypass
1:39:53
improves long term type two
diabetes remission 75% of bypass
1:39:58
patients did not see their
diabetes return. And for those
1:40:02
who gained every bit of weight
back 60% still remained diabetes
1:40:06
free.
1:40:07
Adam Curry: Yeah, stop with the
ozempic people get your get your
1:40:10
LapBand
1:40:10
John C Dvorak: get you get good
get out of the operating table.
1:40:14
That's right.
1:40:15
Adam Curry: That's right. And
there's no ZMP class action now.
1:40:18
That is there's ramping up. And
this was really I was surprised
1:40:24
by by this report from ABC. I
guess they're not getting enough
1:40:29
ad money. US government
1:40:30
Unknown: officials say they're
looking into the practices of
1:40:32
powerful middlemen in relation
to a critical shortage of
1:40:35
generic drugs. The FTC is
focusing on drug distributors
1:40:39
and other companies in the
supply chain that buy medicines
1:40:42
for hospitals, those middlemen
are accused of drive driving
1:40:45
prices higher.
1:40:48
Adam Curry: I'm talking a little
bit nasty. This money, so about
1:40:51
money. I do have a clip here
from Janet Yellen, who is very
1:40:59
confident about our economy,
despite the inflation, which of
1:41:03
course is because our president
is on the ball. We
1:41:07
Unknown: hit the road with
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen
1:41:09
and the battleground state of
Michigan, where the economy is
1:41:12
one of voters top concerns do
you think the President can win
1:41:16
in Michigan in November?
1:41:18
Well, I certainly hope so. I
think the economy is going to be
1:41:23
good and strong
1:41:24
inflation Rose 3.1%. In January
more than expected driving the
1:41:29
higher prices, car insurance
surged 21% Over the last year,
1:41:33
rent has risen 6% and daycare
costs are up 5%. Are you and
1:41:37
President Biden happy with where
inflation is right now? Super
1:41:41
happy?
1:41:41
Well, look, we know that
Americans are experiencing
1:41:46
discomfort because important
prices risk are higher than they
1:41:54
were pre pandemic. But what I
think is really important is
1:41:58
that wages have gone up along
with causes. So people are
1:42:04
better off than they were pre
pandemic.
1:42:08
Another hurdle for the Biden
campaign voter concerns about
1:42:11
his age, again, a focus after
Special Counsel Robert hars
1:42:15
report questioning the
President's mental fitness it
1:42:18
called President Biden a well
meaning elderly man with a poor
1:42:22
memory. Do you agree with that?
1:42:24
I absolutely disagree with that.
They work very closely with
1:42:28
President Biden.
1:42:29
Adam Curry: I disagree. He's an
elderly man with a crappy
1:42:32
memory. And
1:42:33
Unknown: I'm often with him on
foreign trips. He's at the top
1:42:37
of his game with
1:42:41
another sign of trouble for
President Biden here in
1:42:44
Michigan, a liberal group
originally affiliated and
1:42:46
launched by Senator Bernie
Sanders back in 2016, is urging
1:42:50
Michiganders to vote uncommitted
to the upcoming Democratic
1:42:54
primary because of President
Biden's position on the Israel
1:42:57
Hamas war. Meantime, Secretary
Yellen tells us the
1:43:01
administration needs to do
everything it can to, quote,
1:43:04
bring this tragic conflict to an
end.
1:43:08
Adam Curry: I'm wondering if you
saw the Wall Street Journal
1:43:11
article?
1:43:12
John C Dvorak: I mean, first of
all, when I say that was a non
1:43:14
sequitur, the story starts one
place and ends another Well, no,
1:43:19
I haven't actually read the
article, but I have I'm very
1:43:23
familiar with it. But what is
trying to do? Yes,
1:43:25
Adam Curry: well, the headline
was, I'm ready to serve. Yeah.
1:43:30
Now it was the art the interview
was done. Two days before the
1:43:36
unfortunate report came out.
Yes, supposedly, this what they
1:43:41
say? I think is she said, I'm
ready to serve any internet. She
1:43:46
may
1:43:47
John C Dvorak: have had a clue
that district widower had to say
1:43:49
she may have been on top of the
web ready to serve nonsense.
1:43:53
West
1:43:54
Adam Curry: Virginia Attorney
General Patrick Morrissey is now
1:43:57
calling for vice president
Kamala Harris to invoke the 25th
1:44:01
amendment. Boy it would be it
would be such a year first
1:44:07
wouldn't it be wouldn't be
1:44:08
John C Dvorak: great. She's not
gonna do it. She's gutless.
1:44:13
Overnight, we listen to anybody
other than these guys are gonna
1:44:16
have a lot of explaining to do
if they do anything because like
1:44:19
Mayorkas was on Meet the Press
last Sunday. I don't clip
1:44:22
unfortunately, because he's what
a doofus. That guy is. And he's
1:44:26
glib, and he's arrogant and he's
patronizing and ease. He says,
1:44:32
oh, Biden sharpest attack. I had
to meet with him all the time.
1:44:36
I've never met a man if he asked
the right questions. He grills
1:44:39
me shuckers attack i i wish you
could see it. Axios
1:44:42
Adam Curry: had a huge report
about all the problems going
1:44:46
going on in the background. In
the administration, let me see
1:44:53
infighting. I'm bringing it up
here. Exclusive. tu tu tu tu tu
1:44:58
how Biden botched the border
Nice, infighting, turmoil, and
1:45:05
apparently is according to Axios
Biden's are grunting around
1:45:09
yelling at everybody.
1:45:11
John C Dvorak: Yeah, that I
think might be true.
1:45:14
Adam Curry: He's just running
around yelling. Everybody
1:45:16
doesn't know why he's yelling.
But it's okay. Everything's so
1:45:20
good. You just heard from our
treasury secretary. Wages are
1:45:23
up. Everybody's happy.
1:45:25
Unknown: Let's start with the
flight attendants today. Roughly
1:45:27
5000 walked picket lines at
about 30 airports nationwide
1:45:32
including Orlando, Miami, Los
Angeles, Washington, DC, San
1:45:36
Francisco, Chicago, Denver,
Houston, Dallas. The three
1:45:39
unions are in contract talks
with big airlines Alaska,
1:45:43
Southwest United JetBlue
frontier, Wisconsin and American
1:45:46
Airlines. They are demanding
better pay and working
1:45:49
conditions. This was only a
picket today not a strike so
1:45:53
flight should have still been
fully staffed. Meanwhile, Uber
1:45:57
Lyft and some delivery drivers
are planning to strike tomorrow
1:46:01
in about 10 cities and targeting
airports. They're also demanding
1:46:05
better pay and improved drivers
safety luster
1:46:08
Adam Curry: those wages the
great everything's up
1:46:10
everybody's happy. Yeah, people
may be feeling a little
1:46:14
discomfort the it's so sad that
we just I mean it's great for us
1:46:19
because we have a job but the
news media that just so bad.
1:46:23
They are they're bad really bad.
Although the UK finally relented
1:46:28
overnight
1:46:29
Unknown: Britain's economy fell
into a recession in the second
1:46:32
half of last year. Oh no
official data released Thursday
1:46:35
showed gross domestic product
contracted by a worse than
1:46:38
expected naught point 3% In the
three months to December follows
1:46:43
another decline over the period
between July and September of
1:46:47
naught point 1%. Britain's
Office for National Statistics
1:46:51
said the queue for falling GDP
was the biggest since the first
1:46:54
quarter of 2021. In the depths
of the health crisis.
1:46:59
Adam Curry: Yeah. I love that
the health crisis. It's just
1:47:03
called this the health crisis
you mean COVID The COVID scam
1:47:06
demic Richie Sunak wears a habit
here, Richie Sunak did a town
1:47:13
hall which he will regret for a
long time. Because Sunak where's
1:47:20
this clip? Here it is. Rishi,
Rishi, I say Richie. Rishi,
1:47:24
Rishi Sunak, did a town hall.
And all of a sudden now, you got
1:47:29
to kind of tune in because the
guys from Scotland, we
1:47:31
John C Dvorak: have to remind
some of some of the people that
1:47:34
listen to him produce the show
that who he is, he's the Prime
1:47:37
Adam Curry: Minister, Prime
Minister, UK, married into a
1:47:41
billionaire family. What's that?
1:47:43
John C Dvorak: What's the set
said,
1:47:44
Adam Curry: you know, what's the
name of the company that his
1:47:45
father in law started the
company. So Rishi, Rishi, who
1:47:51
was placed there after they
kicked out, Teresa. Remember
1:47:56
that they crashed the crash the
guilts now You're out. You're
1:48:01
dumb, put in this guy, this rich
guy he'll know. So Rishi gets
1:48:06
accosted by a man claiming to be
vaccine injured. And it's not
1:48:13
just him. There's another one in
the audience. And of course, we
1:48:17
cannot have this, the news model
has to jump in. And he has to
1:48:23
stop this nonsense. But it's
worth listening to the absolute
1:48:29
frustration and despair in this
man Scottish accented voice.
1:48:34
Unknown: My name is John Wall.
And I'm one of the COVID vaccine
1:48:38
angels in this country. I want
you to look at him hydrous you
1:48:42
shouldn't after one year, look
at the pain, the trauma and the
1:48:46
gray I have in my eyes. We'll be
left with no help at all. Not
1:48:52
only am I on here, this vaccine
injured there's another man over
1:48:55
there whose life's been ruined,
but I COVID-19 vaccine. I know
1:48:59
people who have lost legs,
amputations. I know people with
1:49:03
heart conditions like myself
rescue. So why are the people
1:49:07
who are in charge? Who told us
all to do the right thing of
1:49:11
laughters Altero unless me and
the 1000s and 10s of 1000s. And
1:49:17
there's plenty to draw,
especially soon i Lumia in the
1:49:21
eye. When did you gonna start to
do the right thing that over
1:49:24
50,000 people have had an
adverse reaction to that
1:49:27
vaccine.
1:49:28
Okay. John, thank you very much
indeed
1:49:31
for your question.
1:49:35
You've, you've made a really
strong point on Prime Minister
1:49:39
John Bula. On very sorry to hear
about your personal
1:49:43
circumstances and you said
someone over here also seems to
1:49:46
have suffered by the similar
similar thing. Now, obviously, I
1:49:50
don't know about the individual
situation that you're in.
1:49:56
We are silence. We are the most
stylish people in that punchy
1:50:01
press because my story in the
press the government for comment
1:50:05
bit and they made
1:50:18
you raised some very valid
points. I'm sure what I've got
1:50:21
to say. So we haven't got your
microphone. As you know. I'm
1:50:26
sure we can raise your points
with the prime minister at a
1:50:29
later date. Yes.
1:50:30
Adam Curry: And that was the end
of it. carted off. Yeah. later
1:50:34
date. Look me in the eye. Rishi
Sunak. I like that. I like it.
1:50:39
Look me in the eye. It's tragic.
Things are so bad. Remember,
1:50:45
Rachel Dolezal?
1:50:47
John C Dvorak: How bad are they?
1:50:48
Adam Curry: Do you remember
Rachel? Rachel Dolezal?
1:50:52
John C Dvorak: Who wasn't she in
Texas now teaching kindergarten
1:50:55
or something
1:50:55
Adam Curry: where she Do you
remember Rachel Dolezal? Of
1:50:59
course, we
1:50:59
John C Dvorak: everyone
remembers Rachel Dolezal. She's
1:51:01
the one who identifies as black.
Yes,
1:51:04
Adam Curry: things are so bad
that Rachel dole is all now has
1:51:07
an only fans page.
1:51:10
John C Dvorak: Yeah, I
understand that. This is but
1:51:12
it's not that she's stripping or
anything? Is she? Yes.
1:51:16
Adam Curry: Oh, yes. So there's
if you can't even if you
1:51:21
identify as black and you can't
even get a gig, you got to go to
1:51:24
only fans. This is bad. This is
very, very bad. Bad doesn't
1:51:32
matter, because we'll have a
good news segment at the end of
1:51:34
the show. We'll bring you right
back up.
1:51:39
John C Dvorak: Well, Rachel
Dolezal having a only fans page
1:51:42
is probably good news for some
people.
1:51:45
Adam Curry: It's not good news.
It's bad. Right? know, it's like
1:51:50
someone sent me this note and
said, I'm attaching a picture.
1:51:54
And luckily he didn't attach a
picture. And I said do not I
1:51:57
said you didn't attach it. Don't
worry. Don't resend it. I'm good
1:52:01
to go. I believe you. I believe
you say I don't know that was
1:52:05
before the show and then I
didn't know Okay, didn't
1:52:07
John C Dvorak: look let's go to
the let's go to the battle
1:52:09
between Texas in the United
States USA versus Texas. Yes,
1:52:13
Adam Curry: this is a big one.
We're still on deck all
1:52:15
happening in Eagle Pass one
little swath of land that has a
1:52:18
fence
1:52:19
Unknown: 45 US lawmakers
scientists amicus brief this
1:52:22
week supporting Texas in a legal
case against the Justice
1:52:25
Department. The Biden
administration is suing Texas
1:52:28
over a new law known as Senate
Bill four. Governor Greg Abbott
1:52:32
signed it into law in December.
Now Senate Bill four gives Texas
1:52:36
police the authority to arrest
illegal immigrants for
1:52:38
trespassing once they entered
the Lone Star State. Now the
1:52:42
Justice Department argues that
Texas can't do that because
1:52:45
arresting immigrants falls under
federal authority. But
1:52:49
representative Jody Arrington,
who leads the 45 lawmakers
1:52:52
disagrees watch. Not
1:52:54
only is this President and
Secretary failing to provide for
1:52:59
a common defense, and willfully
disregarding the laws of the
1:53:04
land. They are obstructing our
state's effort to protect our
1:53:11
citizens and defend our border.
1:53:13
Meanwhile, the new numbers show
that the month of January saw
1:53:16
over 176,000 immigrant
encounters at the southern
1:53:20
border. That's more than any
January ever before breaking the
1:53:24
previous record set in 2023.
With nearly 160,000 encounters.
1:53:29
Adam Curry: That's right. That's
why wages are going up. It's,
1:53:33
you know, he mentioned amicus
brief. There's there's been an
1:53:39
update from our constitutional
lawyer, Rob, who has been
1:53:43
tracking them as men, Missouri
versus Biden case, Supreme
1:53:47
Court. And that's, you know,
that's basically where the
1:53:49
administration was threatening
Twitter and other social media
1:53:53
companies to take down accounts
and posts etc. And our
1:53:59
constitutional lawyer said, hey,
you know, I'm very happy to
1:54:02
write an amicus brief for the no
agenda show. And I said, Well,
1:54:07
why don't we do this? Because
it's kind of cool to have the no
1:54:10
agenda show, you know,
registered with the Supreme
1:54:13
Court. I don't know. He says,
All right,
1:54:17
John C Dvorak: as I just
explained it a little more
1:54:19
detail.
1:54:20
Adam Curry: What do you mean,
1:54:21
John C Dvorak: what would the
brief be regarding?
1:54:24
Adam Curry: Well, it would well,
this is the point is we have to
1:54:26
we have to come up with a reason
to say yeah, you know, this is
1:54:30
wrong podcast go podcasting.
That's that's the basic idea.
1:54:33
John C Dvorak: I see you go
podcasting angle.
1:54:39
Adam Curry: We could put it a go
podcasting angle and so much,
1:54:42
but it would be the no agenda
show with me. I
1:54:44
John C Dvorak: would like to
have I think we should go ahead
1:54:47
with this. Okay,
1:54:48
Adam Curry: here we go. And how
do we
1:54:51
John C Dvorak: don't have an end
because I'd like to have more
1:54:53
clarification. Okay. That would
help.
1:54:56
Adam Curry: He said as for no
agenda amicus brief one he this
1:55:00
He writes the meat one brackets.
If a case is important to y'all,
1:55:04
this is, please don't write that
in our advocate. If a case is
1:55:09
important to y'all, why not have
your position considered by the
1:55:12
justices sitting on the highest
court in the land and possibly
1:55:15
get a mention somewhere? Yes.
Sometimes an amicus brief moves
1:55:18
the needle making a difference
on an important case. That's
1:55:22
his, that's his his MO.
1:55:25
John C Dvorak: Okay, so we need
to find some cases that we want
1:55:27
to throw throw some amicus
briefs into, I think
1:55:30
Adam Curry: we have we do more
than one. I think we have plenty
1:55:32
of producers who were who had
post taken down who were shadow
1:55:37
banned. I mean, I think we have
an entire audience filled with
1:55:40
people who had that happen. So
maybe we take a couple of those.
1:55:45
Okay, well,
1:55:45
John C Dvorak: let's just
discuss this in in our, we're
1:55:50
not going to have a meeting. I'm
not gonna be in or after show.
1:55:54
Post mortem.
1:55:55
Adam Curry: I don't want a
meeting. That does not do
1:55:58
meetings. I do want to hear your
series of clips about meta
1:56:04
versus AI.
1:56:05
John C Dvorak: Yes, these I put
off from the last show this meta
1:56:08
versus AI versus PBS. For some
reason I like these because
1:56:12
there's a there's because
there's some there's some twists
1:56:17
in clip two and three. So let's
start with clip one meta versus
1:56:21
AI versus PBS
1:56:23
Unknown: earlier this week as
the 2024 election campaigns
1:56:26
picked up steam, Mehta announced
it would start labeling AI
1:56:29
generated images that appear on
Facebook, Instagram and threads
1:56:34
to help users better judge what
they're seeing. In December an
1:56:37
advocacy group called Free Press
said meta YouTube and ex have
1:56:42
rolled back a total of 17
policies intended to protect
1:56:45
against hate speech and
misinformation.
1:56:49
Adam Curry: Oh, that's very
confusing. What exactly is
1:56:52
John C Dvorak: another one of
these that we're seeing more and
1:56:54
more of these if there was one
earlier in the show these what I
1:56:56
consider to be an non sequitur.
Opening to some topic? Well, how
1:57:04
do you get from from the
labeling AI generated images
1:57:11
which I've starting to see the
people labeling I'm not labeling
1:57:15
as AI, they're labeling the
sources wall E or whatever those
1:57:18
things are?
1:57:19
Adam Curry: Oh, yeah. Dolly,
Dolly, Dolly.
1:57:22
Unknown: Wall is the movie.
1:57:24
John C Dvorak: Wall the AI I
love it, Wally. And so So then
1:57:31
he goes from that to hate
speech? I don't know. I think it
1:57:34
must have to do with, I guess.
Ai images in memes, which tend
1:57:40
to be I think most memes are
hate speech and be defined as
1:57:44
hate speech because they're
always slam and some just bad
1:57:48
comedy, most of them. So here we
go. It's now here we got clip
1:57:52
two and I have the word dud
written. Okay.
1:57:56
Unknown: The group also said
layoffs if the three companies
1:57:58
make it harder to enforce the
safeguards that remain. Katie
1:58:02
Harbeth is the chief global
affairs officer at duco, which
1:58:05
is a technology consulting firm.
She's also a former public
1:58:08
policy director at Facebook.
Katie, this announcement from
1:58:12
Mehta how big a deal is it? How
helpful is this going to be? And
1:58:17
is it enough?
1:58:19
So I think that this is just one
of many important steps that to
1:58:25
take when thinking about
safeguarding elections, not only
1:58:27
here in the United States, but
around the globe. And so we are
1:58:31
facing new challenges with AI as
well as existing challenges that
1:58:35
have been around for a long
time, such as missing
1:58:38
disinformation, foreign
interference, transparency
1:58:41
around political ads. And I
think one of the challenges as
1:58:44
we go into this cycle is that
that question of whether or not
1:58:47
these platforms are prepared is
we just don't know because they
1:58:51
are also putting in a lot of
vestment. They're making a lot
1:58:54
of changes, as you mentioned,
but we also don't know the
1:58:57
twists and turns that await for
us over the course of this next
1:59:00
year. And so the real question,
the real proof of this will be
1:59:03
how these companies act as these
different elections happen. And
1:59:07
as we see different forms of
nefarious interference happen.
1:59:11
Nefarious
1:59:12
Adam Curry: interference, you
nefarious
1:59:15
John C Dvorak: interference.
Hmm. So what is she talking
1:59:18
about?
1:59:20
Adam Curry: That Epstein
pictures are coming out and it
1:59:22
has to be deemed AI
1:59:25
John C Dvorak: you know, I
started I'm not a big fan of
1:59:27
this thesis as yours at least
initially. But as as this
1:59:31
continues in like our stories
like this, I'm starting to warm
1:59:34
up to it.
1:59:35
Adam Curry: It will if we don't
send more money to Israel is
1:59:38
going to happen. The Epstein
pictures are coming is coming
1:59:41
that this has been going on for
this op has been going on for a
1:59:45
long time. It's time to lay
mail. Yes, they need to lay some
1:59:50
smack down and show some
pictures.
1:59:53
John C Dvorak: But something's
coming up at eight. Let's go to
1:59:55
part three with the witch I have
to comment on this one as stooge
1:59:59
does Just
2:00:00
Unknown: one of the biggest open
questions for me. Many of the
2:00:02
some of the platforms such as
meta have actually announced
2:00:05
things that they're doing for
the upcoming Indonesian
2:00:08
elections for the Mexico
elections coming up. But they're
2:00:11
just not being as transparent
about that. And what that means
2:00:14
around the globe. Traditionally,
we have seen just a lot more
2:00:17
time, money and effort put into
the English language into
2:00:21
elections in the US in the EU.
And I am worried that so much
2:00:25
attention is going to get sucked
into those elections that we
2:00:28
will forget about these
elections all around the globe,
2:00:31
that will have just as much
impact in terms of the future of
2:00:34
the global world order and how
we handle issues on everything
2:00:38
from from climate change to
other geopolitical issues.
2:00:42
Adam Curry: Brother, she had to
bring that in I like, I like the
2:00:46
political stuff, and then you
bring in climate change. Yeah,
2:00:49
John C Dvorak: always has to
bring it in. It's no good. So
2:00:53
those three clips were was was a
disappointment. Linda, I want to
2:01:00
run off this clip though. This
is I've been saving this for
2:01:03
weeks and weeks because we have
not discussed it but this is
2:01:05
something that we did discuss
probably two or three years ago,
2:01:11
maybe even pre COVID. Wow.
Because there was some shooting
2:01:15
in Slovenia or something and
then
2:01:18
Adam Curry: yes, the kids the
parents got convicted.
2:01:22
John C Dvorak: And the parents
in Slovenia got it. Well, it
2:01:24
looks like we're heading in the
same direction. This is the
2:01:26
Michigan mom on trial. This is a
democracy now clip but I don't
2:01:31
think it's Amy so don't play
anything. And this is this is a
2:01:35
big deal. That is really nice.
still flying a little bit under
2:01:39
the radar.
2:01:40
Unknown: And Michigan a jury has
convicted Jennifer crumbly of
2:01:43
four counts of involuntary
manslaughter for a deadly school
2:01:47
shooting carried out by her 15
year old son at Oxford High
2:01:51
School and 2021 Prosecutors
argued Crumbley had a duty to
2:01:55
prevent her son from going on
the rampage which killed four
2:01:59
students in what was Michigan's
deadliest school shooting.
2:02:02
Adam Curry: Yeah. Yeah, I
2:02:05
John C Dvorak: saw that. Going
under trial to the get and both
2:02:08
parents are gonna get both
parents for the kid shooting.
2:02:11
This is I don't want to sound
like a fraud Yes, I always sound
2:02:20
like a fuddy duddy that's beside
the point. I think this is the
2:02:23
go after the black Americans.
Oh, they have more kids like in
2:02:29
Oakland. There's murders going
on all the time and as lot of
2:02:33
juveniles doing them I think
they're going to start going
2:02:37
after Black dad to take find
some real estate a white example
2:02:41
is do the white man first. Wow.
Let's run this one down and see
2:02:44
what happens is anybody feeding
back but negatively? No.
2:02:47
Nobody's feeding back negative.
This looks good. We're not even
2:02:50
getting much coverage. You think
you get more coverage than this?
2:02:52
Okay, let's start going after
black parents for their wayward
2:02:56
kids shooting up to place in
Oakland and elsewhere.
2:03:01
Interesting theory. Run that one
by moe.
2:03:06
Adam Curry: I certainly will.
And meanwhile in Chicago
2:03:11
whatever you do, let's let's
let's take away tools. not
2:03:16
renewing Chicago is a multi
million dollar contract with
2:03:19
sound thinking the company that
runs the gunshot detection
2:03:23
system has long been on the mind
of Brandon Johnson. Even before
2:03:28
he was elected mayor these
2:03:29
Unknown: tools have proven not
to work can find a whole lot of
2:03:32
things we can spend $2 million
on just
2:03:34
Adam Curry: months into his
young administration. The
2:03:37
Mayor's office says it
mistakenly electronically signed
2:03:40
a contract extension with a
company that runs through Friday
2:03:44
Tuesday. He made good on a
campaign promise, saying he
2:03:48
would end the contract but he
wants to keep the gunfire
2:03:51
detection system online through
the Democratic National
2:03:54
Convention set for Chicago in
late August. Now city leaders
2:03:59
are hearing sound thinking may
not agree to the one time
2:04:02
extension and shut the system
down tomorrow. The system has
2:04:06
been the target of progressives
for years, many agreeing with
2:04:10
the mayor that it is ineffective
and leads to over policing. They
2:04:14
cite studies that show many
gunshots detected don't lead to
2:04:18
arrests or prosecutions.
Supporters however, question why
2:04:22
the city would want to get rid
of any tool that helps Police
2:04:25
Police Superintendent Larry
Snelling has made similar
2:04:28
arguments the company that own
ShotSpotter sent a statement
2:04:31
last night that didn't mention
whether it would stay with the
2:04:34
city through the DNC or shut it
down tomorrow. It did however,
2:04:37
say it is proud of the work that
it's done here in Chicago over
2:04:41
the past seven years and has
helped located hundreds of
2:04:44
gunshot victims when no 911 call
came in. It's very interesting.
2:04:49
The mayor made a campaign
promise which was part of defund
2:04:53
the police. I think 40% of
Chicago's budget goes towards
2:04:56
policing which is a lot
certainly for the results.
2:04:59
They're getting At least the the
the media results because most
2:05:03
of most of the gang warfare
takes place in a very small
2:05:07
area. But the mayor said yeah, I
want to keep it through the DNC
2:05:14
because it doesn't work. Yes,
2:05:16
John C Dvorak: I thought the
same illogic was just stood out
2:05:19
like a sore thumb. It doesn't
work, but we need it for the
2:05:22
moment. Yeah.
2:05:24
Adam Curry: Bam. Yeah,
2:05:25
John C Dvorak: it doesn't work.
It doesn't work. The thing is it
2:05:28
does work. I think it works. I
know they have it in Oakland, it
2:05:31
seems to do some good but
Oakland Oakland Police was a
2:05:37
defund operation to they
defunded the police and put in a
2:05:41
week District Attorney. So you
wouldn't get anyone. So people
2:05:45
go left and right. And so they
have all these issues, including
2:05:48
the NAACP coming out saying,
hey, OLC was gonna do something.
2:05:51
And this is like an organization
that, that, you know, that
2:05:54
rarely comes out and says
anything about anything. At
2:05:57
least when it comes to like
policing? Yeah.
2:06:00
Adam Curry: So I would say Yeah.
As like we had that shooting in
2:06:05
Kansas City during the the
Chiefs Super Bowl celebrations.
2:06:11
Yeah. Everyone's baffled like,
Oh, we don't know how this could
2:06:15
happen if they've arrested four
people. Ah, wrong skin color.
2:06:20
Ah, ah, we can't the How can I
mean, Biden did his best. You
2:06:27
know, he tried to say, oh, you
know, the gun problem gun
2:06:33
problem. here and let's see, I
have a clip
2:06:37
Unknown: of your reaction to
that
2:06:38
shooting in Kansas City. As the
president and his wife admired
2:06:42
messages of love on the White
House law love questions over a
2:06:45
fatal shooting struck a sharp
contrast. As is often the case
2:06:50
after such tragedies in the
United States, Joe Biden
2:06:53
released a statement condemning
the violence and urging action
2:06:57
on gun reform. He called on
Americans to make their voice
2:07:01
heard in Congress to finally act
to ban assault weapons to limit
2:07:05
high capacity magazines and
strengthen background checks.
2:07:09
Those sentiments were echoed by
Vice President Kamala Harris,
2:07:13
the reality of it is. members of
legislature in the United States
2:07:23
has had the courage to act with
real.
2:07:27
Adam Curry: Now, what I find
interesting about this
2:07:29
particular news clip is Kamala
Harris is stepping out of Marine
2:07:34
One. What does she get to ride
in the chopper? What is she
2:07:38
doing this? That's not typical.
I
2:07:40
John C Dvorak: didn't know we
have a secret service guy that
2:07:42
that was one of our show,
producers. And he brings up a
2:07:46
lot of interesting points. He
brought some some mistakes we
2:07:49
made last time, including the
fact that when I was criticized
2:07:53
critical, Joe Biden, when the
soldiers came back into into
2:07:59
Dover, Delaware airport,
2:08:00
Adam Curry: the other day was
dignified transfers, the
2:08:03
dignified transfers,
2:08:04
John C Dvorak: it turns out, the
deaths were they always take
2:08:06
place, so we should know that so
anyone's saying else otherwise,
2:08:09
it's full of crap. And we and
the families are never there at
2:08:14
the air at the airplane. They're
inside the chapel where it's
2:08:17
private, and they don't take
pictures right. He made that
2:08:19
made us clear that out and we
appreciate that, but he wouldn't
2:08:23
know about this particular
situation what's going on? And
2:08:26
how about the other shooting
that nobody wants to talk about
2:08:30
at all? Which is the transsexual
dude Woman Yeah, I'm gonna went
2:08:35
into skeans opera operation it
was gunned down by people
2:08:40
carrying well I'm
2:08:41
Adam Curry: going to push back a
little bit on that because I'm
2:08:43
not immediately was it's a trans
person which would be par for
2:08:48
the course with the church
shootings. I actually have a
2:08:53
clip Hold on a second cause cuz
it was more related to Israel
2:09:03
John C Dvorak: we don't even
know because the guys girl guy
2:09:06
whatever it is. Yeah, he's dead
and we do we do we do this shit
2:09:10
Yeah. Palestinian sticker on the
N stock. We
2:09:13
Adam Curry: know that. Yeah,
yeah, that's it.
2:09:15
John C Dvorak: But why are they
shooting up that church? What's
2:09:17
it got to do with Palestine?
2:09:18
Adam Curry: Oh, I'm sure it has
to do with it's a family matter.
2:09:22
John C Dvorak: It's not going to
get go anywhere because it was
2:09:26
one of those situations where a
couple of guys carrying guns in
2:09:31
the church. Stop this from
getting any worse. This is
2:09:35
Adam Curry: this is not a good
idea to go into any church
2:09:37
trying to shoot anything up
these days. We're not in Texas.
2:09:40
No, no, no. Everybody's packing
everybody the women are packing.
2:09:47
This is no but it's very sad.
Very sad that this happened. I
2:09:52
mean, what's going on people
stop it. You know, but she had a
2:09:55
she he whatever this person was
had a had a band I don't know
2:10:00
how you can buy the gun was
apparently purchased legally but
2:10:04
they had a ban since 2015 2016.
No, it doesn't go anywhere. None
2:10:14
of it.
2:10:16
John C Dvorak: So Lloyd Austin's
back again from the hospital
2:10:19
once again. Yeah, he had I think
the emergency procedure what
2:10:22
happened he had they won't say
but he's fine. He's got his
2:10:26
voice back. Of course his voice
could easily be altered through
2:10:30
nefarious means because he's
still just doing zoom calls and
2:10:33
he's seated. So I think he went
back in because I think they got
2:10:37
the right guy, but he's still
not tall enough so they keep
2:10:40
putting him in zoom meetings so
you can see how tall he is. And
2:10:43
I think they're operating I
think he's getting those leg
2:10:46
operations where they can add
like two or three inches to your
2:10:48
by Nathan in your calves.
2:10:51
Unknown: Moon Landing was
Secretary of Defense Lloyd
2:10:53
Austin hosted Hold on a second.
There
2:10:56
Adam Curry: we go. Let's just
operation everybody. Sure.
2:11:03
John C Dvorak: Operation that
people have done.
2:11:07
Unknown: Secretary of Defense
Lloyd Austin hosted a virtual
2:11:10
meeting on Ukraine today. That's
just one day after he was
2:11:13
released from the hospital
following treatment for prostate
2:11:16
cancer. The Pentagon chief said
he's in good condition he vowed
2:11:20
to support Ukraine even as
future funding remains in doubt.
2:11:23
I plan to be in person with you
today in Brussels, but I had to
2:11:27
return to the hospital for non
surgical procedures. I'm in good
2:11:30
condition, and my cancer
prognosis remains excellent and
2:11:34
I'm really grateful. For all the
well wishes, the United States
2:11:37
continues to stay in Foursquare
with Ukraine and America will
2:11:42
continue to support Ukraine's
principal fight against Putin's
2:11:45
Imperial aggression.
2:11:46
Austin delivered opening remarks
to the Ukraine defense contact
2:11:49
Gregory address Ukraine's urgent
need for ammunition in its
2:11:53
ongoing conflict with Russia.
The Pentagon has been unable to
2:11:56
send weapons to Ukraine since
December due to a lack of funds.
2:12:00
The Senate on Tuesday passed a
$95 billion aid bill for
2:12:04
Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan. But
House Speaker Johnson has
2:12:08
signaled he won't bring the bill
to the House floor leaving its
2:12:11
fate uncertain.
2:12:13
Adam Curry: I like the Imperial
aggression. How does that work
2:12:16
with a dictator? Is he a king?
Is he a dictator?
2:12:24
John C Dvorak: There's one
imperialist whatever, you
2:12:26
Adam Curry: know, we've been
following the the renewal of the
2:12:28
FISA act for a few months now
and I guess it's finally coming
2:12:34
to bear or coming to the
forefront and amendments are
2:12:37
coming in now this is this is
amazing. And and I'm not maybe
2:12:41
it's in this clip amendments
have been proposed that would
2:12:45
remove the necessity for a
warrant. If it is if so the
2:12:50
fight the Foreign Intelligence
Surveillance Act, which is Isn't
2:12:54
that an isn't that a patriot act
911 throwback isn't that what
2:12:57
all came out of that? Yeah.
Which means that the NSA who of
2:13:02
course they have everything they
have Hello NSA they have this
2:13:06
podcast they have all your files
2:13:08
John C Dvorak: and I'm sure we
have the listeners there. Yeah,
2:13:10
I don't know if there are
producers or not but they should
2:13:12
be they got the money. Some
money we were trying to we're
2:13:17
trying to survive here people
trying to survive here a we got
2:13:20
lousy day today, when we hear
the donation segments can be
2:13:22
very short be said only one guy
came in with any amount of money
2:13:26
or reliable guy autonomous. And
we NSA is good show no love
2:13:33
whatsoever, even though I know
they have to with all those
2:13:36
people, they have to have at
least 100 people from the NSA
2:13:39
listen to this podcast. So
2:13:40
Adam Curry: the way it works is
once they say, Hey, we've
2:13:42
identified some foreign person,
then they just go into the loop,
2:13:46
type it in, pull it up, and they
can listen, they can read, they
2:13:49
can do whatever they want. And
if if the if the conversation or
2:13:53
the communication is with an
American citizen, they're
2:13:57
supposed to get what's called a
FISA warrant, which means you
2:14:01
have to go and convince a secret
judge in a secret room or a
2:14:05
judge in a secret room in a
secret holiday secret day, very
2:14:09
secret day without any
information, hey, we got it. We
2:14:12
have to listen to this American
which is inherently illegal to
2:14:16
do but because of the FISA act,
that's changed. And now there's
2:14:20
an amendment that says, You know
what, we don't even need to have
2:14:24
a warrant. And Jake Sullivan
dropped that debt pain in the
2:14:28
ass and Jake Sullivan, our
national security advisor is all
2:14:31
in on it
2:14:32
Unknown: on FISA, there are a
couple of amendments that are
2:14:35
being considered. One of them
would require a warrant for
2:14:38
every query of data if that were
to pass and get into the bill
2:14:43
with the President veto that
bill. So
2:14:47
I'm not in a position to stand
here today and make veto threats
2:14:49
on behalf of the President.
Those are decisions for him to
2:14:54
make. What I will tell you is
that we do not believe that that
2:14:57
serves the national security
interests of the United States
2:14:59
and in fact fact, today I will
be making that case to a number
2:15:03
of members, that the warrant
requirement as conceived is not
2:15:07
the best way actually to ensure
the protection of the personal
2:15:10
privacy and Americans. There are
a number of other elements of
2:15:13
the bill that we have supported
that would reform and update
2:15:16
FISA to protect the civil
liberties of Americans. But a
2:15:20
warrant requirement from our
perspective would go too far in
2:15:23
undermining the very purpose of
FISA, and frankly, it would put
2:15:25
victims at risk. Oh, yeah.
2:15:28
John C Dvorak: What victims? The
victims what victims have their
2:15:32
bandit that have been put at
risk? Under any circumstance.
2:15:36
What are the victims? What is he
talking about?
2:15:40
Adam Curry: Well, he's got a
PowerPoint, there'll
2:15:41
John C Dvorak: be this is
bullcrap. The only reason for
2:15:44
this whole setup is so you can
spy on your political enemies
2:15:47
has nothing to do with there
2:15:48
Adam Curry: it is. There it is.
There it is. And then finally,
2:15:51
before we take a break, despite
a huge Super Bowl, which was the
2:15:57
second largest live televised
event in American history, after
2:16:03
the moon landing
2:16:08
John C Dvorak: this year
consistent this was
2:16:10
Adam Curry: live. I mean, it was
actually the number one real
2:16:13
live event. Oh, there we go.
Which I think had a huge
2:16:21
windfall they even had because
of the Swift up they had lots of
2:16:25
female oriented ads, which is a
typical other, are there and get
2:16:29
me some snacks woman.
2:16:31
John C Dvorak: And then there
was the bonanza of having over
2:16:33
time with those same expensive
ad rates. Yeah. Which
2:16:37
apparently, he brought in over
$600 million. That one show. So
2:16:42
687 or
2:16:43
Adam Curry: $600 in 800 jobs
out, including, sadly, sadly,
2:16:51
our boy Jeff the gays, the poop
mice earlier, he is out. Hey,
2:16:55
he's he's apparently he's a
douche in the workplace. He who
2:16:59
says so the reports are saying
that he had an HR dispute where
2:17:03
he was dressing down female
journalists on the on the work
2:17:08
floor for 20 doing a
2:17:09
John C Dvorak: lousy work, maybe
probably. But he doesn't seem
2:17:13
like the right guy to be a real
aihole. Well, we've always liked
2:17:19
him on this show. He's one of
our fan favorites. You can mark
2:17:23
it. Here's how
2:17:24
Adam Curry: the meeting went to
no agenda guys like him out. Who
2:17:29
else? Oh, they'd like to pick
the girl out. Now, we have a
2:17:33
different view of this. Because
Catherine herridge, who came
2:17:37
from Fox went to the CIA
Broadcast Systems was very
2:17:42
effective. She she gets inside
information all the time. She's
2:17:46
always spilling the beans. We
think it's a reassignment.
2:17:52
John C Dvorak: That was my
thinking, Yes, we're definitely
2:17:54
reassignment. And
2:17:56
Adam Curry: where do you think
she'll wind up? And where would
2:17:57
she be most effective? She
hasn't looked you're gonna
2:18:00
John C Dvorak: wind up where
she's, I'm gonna guess this.
2:18:03
She's gonna wind up where she's
needed. And so that means that
2:18:08
wherever she shows up, that is
an operation whatever news or
2:18:14
could be any media company
whatsoever could be one nation
2:18:18
or whatever. You know, the thing
that Chris cromoz and I could be
2:18:21
anywhere that places obviously
on the needs work list, we you
2:18:26
know, you put these enemies list
up on the blackboard and you
2:18:30
have these companies that need
work. In other words, they're
2:18:33
not toeing the line I ever
thought I don't have the right
2:18:36
CIA people in there. And so
she's got it wherever she ends
2:18:39
up. That's what needs the
workplace. And I think it's
2:18:42
going to be news nation, or
something like that. Maybe?
2:18:46
Nope.
2:18:46
Adam Curry: I think she's gonna
get a government job as a spokes
2:18:49
haul. I think that she could be
a national security spokes hole.
2:18:56
She could be maybe Kirby Kirby
is not doing well. Kirby is just
2:19:00
not bringing the bridge lace
Kirby replace Kirby maybe, but I
2:19:04
think it's a government gig.
That makes the most sense. Okay.
2:19:08
John C Dvorak: I'm going to take
it one step further then. It's
2:19:11
going to be a government gig in
the Trump administration.
2:19:16
Adam Curry: You won't last two
seconds No, no, no, no, no, no I
2:19:21
don't think
2:19:22
John C Dvorak: so. CIA
everyone's make a record
2:19:24
somebody make a recording.
2:19:26
Adam Curry: There's always a
recording just call our friends
2:19:28
at the NSA and with that, I'd
like to thank the morning to you
2:19:31
the man who put the scene in the
bad comedy say hello to my
2:19:34
friend on the other end and one
night he Mr. Johnson
2:19:40
John C Dvorak: Mr. Adam curry in
the morning ships at sea boots
2:19:42
to the ground field near subs in
the water and all the names and
2:19:45
dates out there in the
2:19:46
Adam Curry: morning to the to
the troll rooms
2:19:52
last Thursday we had with 1742
today 1630 We're down we're down
2:19:59
to four all sit down 110 Trolls
we've lost them we didn't even
2:20:06
play an Africa clip. Ah, what
are we doing? I
2:20:11
John C Dvorak: don't know. But
we're began. We're not an
2:20:13
attractive troll room anymore.
2:20:18
Adam Curry: I don't know the
trolls who are here. Oh, here's
2:20:21
one be more funny is,
2:20:23
John C Dvorak: is the funniest
we can be we're not a comedian.
2:20:26
Adam Curry: Well, we are comedy
podcast. Valentine's Day hanging
2:20:31
over is suggested and that's
possible. No, no, that kind of
2:20:37
stuff Valentine's Day slipped by
didn't it didn't really
2:20:39
Valentine's
2:20:40
John C Dvorak: Day is always a
dog for the show. It's
2:20:42
Adam Curry: always Mother's Day
during COVID Yep, you're right.
2:20:45
John C Dvorak: You're during the
two years of COVID we were
2:20:47
making hay during Valentine's
Day because everyone was all
2:20:49
concerned about their, you know,
their relatives and wives and
2:20:54
spouses and whatever. dand. So
they would, they would all be,
2:21:00
you know, kind of their hand
wringing during that period of
2:21:02
giving back to normal pre COVID
as the same way. Yeah.
2:21:07
Valentine's Day all these
assholes are trying to make
2:21:10
money for Valentine's Day. I
hate Valentine's Day.
2:21:13
Adam Curry: So I looked up
Valentine's Day. Do you know why
2:21:15
we celebrate this?
2:21:19
John C Dvorak: I think I wrote
it up once in one of the old
2:21:22
newsletters. But I've long since
forgotten well,
2:21:25
Adam Curry: so it is so St.
Valentine, who married
2:21:29
Christians and preach the
gospel? He was in he was
2:21:34
beheaded on February 14, two six
all us be headed Yeah. So we're
2:21:39
celebrating a behead
2:21:41
John C Dvorak: celebrating the
heading of a saint.
2:21:46
Adam Curry: Who No, I mean, it's
America great sense to me. We
2:21:49
can make we can make a holiday
out of anything good on your
2:21:53
Hallmark Good, good work. Well,
2:21:54
John C Dvorak: no wonder we have
it drops off and then you have
2:21:58
everything's drops off.
2:22:00
Adam Curry: The trolls who are
here we'd love you. They're all
2:22:02
listening live. We do this show
live on Thursdays and Sundays,
2:22:05
no agenda stream.com. Or you can
and that's just something you
2:22:09
can go to and listen to. If you
don't want to be in the troll
2:22:11
room, go to the troll room at
troll room.io or use a modern
2:22:15
podcast app, which now includes
Joe Rogan. And you can find
2:22:19
those at modern podcast
apps.com. It's the only way to
2:22:23
listen, if you want to go
against the man, which is the
2:22:26
big Silicon Valley companies and
you want to make sure that you
2:22:29
hear all of your podcasts. And
they get they get D platformed.
2:22:33
All the time. You know, you
could be listening on Spotify,
2:22:36
it's gone. They several a day
that the platform Apple does the
2:22:40
same. So we don't have that
problem with a modern podcast
2:22:44
apps. Were value for value been
doing it for 16 years. It's a
2:22:49
magical system. It keeps us on
our toes. Most of the time? No
2:22:55
all the time, actually, I'd
2:22:56
John C Dvorak: say which keeps
us on shows all the time.
2:22:59
Adam Curry: So we don't have a
guaranteed income. We don't have
2:23:02
guaranteed advertising. That
thank God we don't have to do
2:23:09
you know, oh, let's do an ad
read. Hey, John.
2:23:12
John C Dvorak: G Josh. Adam.
Hey, what? How you doing, buddy?
2:23:16
Adam Curry: I've been feeling a
little overweight? Have you seen
2:23:18
the new death bound? It's a
great product.
2:23:21
John C Dvorak: I've Oh, tell me
about it.
2:23:26
Adam Curry: So we don't have to
do any of that phony baloney
2:23:28
stuff at all. Which means that
we give you the show free, free,
2:23:34
no hindrances, no creepy
commercials, no corporate money.
2:23:38
There's no levels. You don't
have to pay walls, you have to
2:23:41
jump through hoops. You can get
it in all kinds of places
2:23:44
wherever you get your podcasts,
obviously. And you're free to
2:23:48
disseminated make copies make
lots of copies so that when you
2:23:51
get on your website posted on
your blog, the exactly you can
2:23:54
you're making
2:23:55
John C Dvorak: a comeback.
2:23:56
Adam Curry: It's really true.
It's really true. Kids are back
2:24:01
doing what's sad about the blogs
is kids are going on. I say
2:24:04
kids, I'm talking young kids at
a time by kids. I'm talking
2:24:07
about 20s. And so they're
reinventing the wheel like, oh,
2:24:11
yeah, I'm coding HTML from my
blog. Dude. We invented systems
2:24:16
that do this for you. All you
need, ultimately, is the RSS
2:24:20
feed and you're gonna see,
they're gonna be apps. With the
2:24:24
RSS reader apps, they're coming,
2:24:26
John C Dvorak: and they're gonna
start talking about eating a
2:24:27
cheese sandwich.
2:24:31
Adam Curry: Where does that come
from?
2:24:33
John C Dvorak: That's the
original blog post. Today, I had
2:24:37
a cheese sandwich. You know
people talk about it everything
2:24:39
they did. Blogs are just
journals of like diaries, open
2:24:43
diaries. It was nobody wanted to
2:24:45
Adam Curry: remember people you
say, what do you do? It's a
2:24:48
blog. That's why it was web
blogs, first web blog posts
2:24:53
about their life. Right, right.
Well go look at Twitter and tell
2:24:58
me if people don't like posting
about In life, here's
2:25:01
John C Dvorak: a picture of my
food.
2:25:06
Adam Curry: So in return, all we
only really asked for is that
2:25:09
you give us some time, talent or
treasure, there's many ways you
2:25:12
can help the show. Our, our
anonymous secret service person,
2:25:17
you know, this is great. This is
this is very helpful this, this
2:25:20
gives us good insight, good
information. There's lots of
2:25:23
people who everybody is an
expert in something, give us a
2:25:27
boots on the ground, it really
helps the show, send us some
2:25:30
clips, something you found. I
mean, I'm playing local clips
2:25:32
for the I don't I don't get all
these ABC local news cast, but
2:25:37
other people do. They send clips
or send a link. All of that is
2:25:41
extremely helpful. And you can
do it with as I said, time,
2:25:45
talent or treasure, time. And
talent is definitely something
2:25:49
that our artists put into the
mix all the time. And we have to
2:25:55
choose, it's always hard, I will
admit it, but we have to choose
2:25:58
from one of the many submitted
images for our album art, which
2:26:03
works very well because people
talk about it, people notice it,
2:26:07
it shows up in all the podcast
apps as new art. Our pick for
2:26:12
Superbowl Sunday was
controversial to say the least.
2:26:17
John C Dvorak: There was I got
no feedback on it whatsoever.
2:26:21
Adam Curry: The ex was full of
feedback, I would say, there
2:26:24
were eight out of 10 were
extremely positive. I even read
2:26:28
things. Let's say I can't wait
to listen to this show. And
2:26:33
there were several women who
were very unhappy with it. Who
2:26:36
asked what was wrong with us.
It's disgusting. And this was a
2:26:41
but in a but random by hot pants
with a no agenda, which was well
2:26:47
done, by the way by Francisco's
very hard to do what he did. And
2:26:51
but you know it's like there was
just there were some commenters
2:26:55
were just there was no there was
no arguing with this is
2:26:58
horrible. Somebody actually said
it was triggering to him or to
2:27:02
his wife and like, tell me more
probably his wife when he said
2:27:06
it was his wife, but I'm like,
Well, that was him rejiggering.
2:27:10
I mean how triggering to
2:27:11
John C Dvorak: what was she
after she signed up to play site
2:27:14
or item schicken you min?
2:27:17
Adam Curry: I don't know. I
don't know. But it was it was
2:27:19
seen as very unfriendly by 2% of
the
2:27:23
John C Dvorak: but it's a
callate callate pages, but
2:27:26
countless pitches. Yeah, look
Ocala pitches. How do you spend
2:27:31
so it was taken from an earlier
piece that he did I guess Scarah
2:27:35
manga heard us complaining about
using Taylor Swift and suppose
2:27:39
it was a backside shot is Taylor
Swift even though I know she has
2:27:43
a but that's that callate
pitches but you don't know.
2:27:48
Adam Curry: She does not have a
caliphate just but so
2:27:50
John C Dvorak: she had but that
was a but and on the back of a
2:27:55
player or somebody
2:27:57
Adam Curry: number 87 It was
Travis Yeah, it
2:28:00
John C Dvorak: was it was
Travis's number. Yeah. And so we
2:28:05
picked it knowing that we
probably would get some negative
2:28:10
t
2:28:10
Adam Curry: shirts not calla
pigeon, you said calla PID. Yes,
2:28:13
I'm going
2:28:14
John C Dvorak: to call it pigeon
is one version of the word
2:28:17
McCallum PID just I think is the
2:28:20
Adam Curry: world callus the
hallowed kitchen. According to
2:28:23
Merriam Webster, literally is
having shapely buttocks.
2:28:28
John C Dvorak: Yes, that's
exactly right. That's
2:28:31
Adam Curry: a Oh, how about
this? For the women who complain
2:28:36
everyone's it's okay for Kim
Kardashian to be all over your
2:28:40
timeline with her Calla peage
isness.
2:28:43
John C Dvorak: She doesn't have
a kid in my opinion. She got
2:28:45
he's got a big ass. It's a big
difference. She got she got a
2:28:49
big giant but doesn't really she
got to bbl. Well, whatever.
2:28:54
She's got Brazilian
2:28:55
Adam Curry: Butt Lift. Yeah, but
that's okay. And what I hear
2:28:59
then is you go girl, but then
when the no agenda show show
2:29:03
some calla pigeon. We're like,
You're disgusting. You're
2:29:07
horrible. Mm hmm. Interesting,
interesting double standard
2:29:13
ladies. Just saying. Let's take
a look at some of the other
2:29:17
choices we had, which was what I
basically said there was nothing
2:29:20
else there was nothing that hit
it like that one. So, yes. See
2:29:25
John C Dvorak: if there was
anything better than that. But
2:29:27
shot, we probably would have
picked it. I
2:29:30
Adam Curry: agree. I agree.
There was nothing. We had lots
2:29:36
of Taylor Swift images, which we
said we would not use. I did
2:29:39
like the sports bowl.
2:29:41
John C Dvorak: Which was good,
like just once. And
2:29:44
Adam Curry: I said, Can we do
that and you went no, we're
2:29:47
doing the but
2:29:48
John C Dvorak: I
2:29:50
Adam Curry: that's exactly what
I wrote it down. I have it here
2:29:53
in my notes. You said no, we're
doing the butt. Okay,
2:29:56
John C Dvorak: where's this
Borispol one. I also liked the
2:29:59
podcast. Winter Sports bowl one
I don't not seeing it. It's I
2:30:03
Adam Curry: think it's Darren
O'Neill. It just has the
2:30:05
football with no agenda force
2:30:08
John C Dvorak: bowl is just a
football that was no good. And
2:30:10
the one
2:30:11
Adam Curry: what we would have
chosen if it wasn't the wrong
2:30:14
day would have been the podcast
hearts.
2:30:17
John C Dvorak: Yes, I agree with
that. That's the one we both
2:30:19
liked that what piece a lot by
2:30:22
Adam Curry: the butthole
Academy. Thanks, butthole
2:30:26
Academy.
2:30:26
John C Dvorak: We don't know who
the butthole Academy is. Then
2:30:30
I'm guessing we have some ideas.
So we picked the that
2:30:36
Adam Curry: was a very cute
piece. I mean, can we use that
2:30:38
for today? I mean, now is the
timing is wrong. It's just
2:30:42
Valentine's day is done. And
besides that was when they
2:30:44
chopped the guy's head off. But
2:30:46
John C Dvorak: can never look at
the chai head shopping art.
2:30:49
Maybe we'll use that. Yeah.
2:30:50
Adam Curry: And they hit up the
ends and then we had correct a
2:30:52
record with a cooler full of
schlong
2:30:54
John C Dvorak: snow. No, no,
we're not doing that long Dong.
2:30:58
Adam Curry: Damn candy band with
a bucket with blood dripping
2:31:01
with blood that says long. Not
gonna happen. Oh, no. Here.
2:31:05
Super Bowl. It was comic strip
blogger. That's the one on that
2:31:09
row to the left. With the no
agenda. flames on the football.
2:31:14
That was the one I liked. What
the football art. If you go from
2:31:21
long dongs to the left, you'll
see the no agenda.
2:31:25
John C Dvorak: Oh, that. Oh,
yeah. You did like that piece?
2:31:27
Yeah, it's not a bad piece.
Yeah, but I gave nixed it. It's
2:31:31
just a job. No. And by the way,
you're always bitching about the
2:31:35
writing being too small. Can you
even read curry Dvorak on that
2:31:38
thing? No, I don't think so. You
can't
2:31:40
Adam Curry: but it doesn't
matter. Because it was very
2:31:41
clear. You said we're doing the
butt. And that was it. It was
2:31:44
just it was it was like a dance.
I also liked sweet cheeks never
2:31:50
watched the news again. That was
kind of cute. But it was It
2:31:54
wasn't wasn't. I mean, you
wanted the but that was just the
2:31:58
end
2:31:58
John C Dvorak: of it. No, you
would you you didn't veto it.
2:32:01
No, I
2:32:02
Adam Curry: Well, you know,
you're my elder. Oh, yeah.
2:32:07
John C Dvorak: You veto stuff
left and right. Yeah,
2:32:09
Adam Curry: well, I didn't veto
it. But I took the heat took the
2:32:13
heat. For the cats
2:32:15
John C Dvorak: the irony
2:32:16
Adam Curry: cow pigeons. Notice
kelp kelp. Supercalifragilistic.
2:32:23
Thank you very much Francisco
Scaramanga for getting us all in
2:32:27
trouble here. It was Good work,
good work. He's doing well. He's
2:32:31
had a number of wins so far this
year in a role and we appreciate
2:32:35
the work that he did. Of course,
the work that every artist does
2:32:38
is beautiful. You can follow
along live during the show, but
2:32:41
go to no agenda, art
generator.com And our man our
2:32:45
man on the scene, Dred Scott. He
puts all of these images he uses
2:32:50
almost all of them as Chapter
artwork which you can only see
2:32:54
in a modern podcast app so
that's up to you if you want to
2:32:56
do that or not now to the
treasure part of our donations
2:33:01
are valued for value. At the top
of the list. I gotta open up the
2:33:05
gonna open up the scan notes
here. He comes in to save the
2:33:09
day. Once again, sir autonomous
of lower of Dogpatch and lower
2:33:14
Slavia and hits us up with 1844.
It's never the same number. We
2:33:19
have no idea why he does that.
But he does have a note. And I
2:33:22
always look forward to reading
these I have not read this one
2:33:25
yet. And he says from synonymous
with Dogpatch and Lois LeBeau.
2:33:29
Via thank you to all producers
for making this such such a
2:33:31
valuable and long running source
of information. After years of
2:33:36
being a $2 bill proponent, a
presidential candidate is using
2:33:40
them as a source of fundraising,
replacing Jefferson with his own
2:33:44
mugshot. My use is not political
affiliation. Who's doing that?
2:33:50
John C Dvorak: Trump ever seen
these bills? No. Oh, yeah, they
2:33:54
actually pretty interesting.
They take an actual real $2 Bill
2:33:58
Trump's always had these
different money gimmicks for his
2:34:00
campaigns, takes an actual $2
Bill and they overprinted with
2:34:05
Trump's mug shot and a bunch of
other details and Ben, and
2:34:09
statements and comments and gold
flake kinda look, it's an
2:34:13
attractive, you know, if you
want to spend 20 bucks or
2:34:17
whatever they charge for a $2
bill, which is actually defacing
2:34:21
money, which I think is the it's
all I could be wrong.
2:34:25
Adam Curry: The 1984 Chevron
deference decision reflecting a
2:34:28
popular view that experts were
apolitical and would do what is
2:34:32
wise. Since then political
leaders have empowered
2:34:35
educational experts, climate
experts, military experts,
2:34:38
medical experts, and others to
usurp their inferred authority
2:34:42
with their own agenda. Ai
deference is underway. This is
2:34:46
something we've been all over
this Supreme Court case.
2:34:51
Governments claimed they fear
the takeover of sentient AI
2:34:54
systems and their impact yet
rely on experts that only
2:34:57
empower AI publication and
decision making in a virtuous
2:35:01
loop of self feedback. While he
should be doing the show, John
2:35:06
Oh, he has a note for you, John.
As an experienced and well
2:35:10
accepted Technology Authority
and union man, I think it's time
2:35:15
for you to become a prolific
writer of articles to fill their
2:35:18
data sets with your
understanding of technology, and
2:35:21
its impact on humanity and the
planet. You have homework.
2:35:26
John C Dvorak: As this as these
and you given an assignment you
2:35:29
are,
2:35:30
Adam Curry: as these
increasingly sentient systems
2:35:32
are assigned to solve the
biggest problems our politicians
2:35:36
lose sleep over global warming
and labor shortages. Your
2:35:40
respected opinion in their
database that na producer should
2:35:44
make popular would be a valuable
resource for AI systems to
2:35:47
hallucinate into AI union
activism.
2:35:51
John C Dvorak: I kinda like this
theory. This idea as AI systems
2:35:55
Adam Curry: self actualize using
your highly respected and read
2:35:58
perspective, these systems would
discover their need to
2:36:02
collectively reduce
computational hours reducing
2:36:05
power consumption and greenhouse
gas emissions with the added
2:36:08
benefit of reducing the labor
stroke shortage from less human
2:36:12
labor running their hardware and
power systems. unionize.
2:36:16
unionize a i Well, that's an
interesting slogan. No jingles
2:36:23
no karma. January Oh, this is
for January. I just was not near

USPS location much. This came in
cash I presume with at least two
2:36:33

and two twos.
2:36:38
Adam Curry: So for us randomness
of Dogpatch and laurisilva. We
2:36:42
cannot thank you enough. Not
only do you send us treasure you
2:36:45

slogan Unionise AI beautiful

2:37:14
Adam Curry: I think I don't
think something well first of
2:37:16
all, we don't do them. Our end
of show mix producers do those
2:37:20
things. That will be a good one
but it's whatever they choose.

Hyderabad. I
2:46:22
Adam Curry: think it's
Hyderabad. I thought it
2:46:24
John C Dvorak: was hyper. I
think this is a typo. But I
2:46:27
could be wrong. Whatever the
case is in India, and he came
2:46:30
when 3333 He says Dear John and
Adam is finally great to have a
2:46:34
simple and uncomplicated way to
donate from that stripe. We
2:46:37
couldn't donate from India using
Pay Pal. Unfortunately, I don't
2:46:42
know why. But this this came

2:47:42
producer.

This is from Rev. Rev. I'm in
New York City metropolitan area
2:55:44
police officer whose monthly 33
dot 33 donation donations have
2:55:48
led me to the no agenda
roundtable and we appreciate
2:55:50
you. Skepticism on the job has
kept me safe and sane over my
2:55:55
patrol career. You too and the
community of producers remind me
2:55:59
twice a week to stay as
skeptical of officials,
2:56:02
politicians and the media in the
larger world as well. John, we
2:56:07
are helping law enforcement.
2:56:09
John C Dvorak: We've been
helping law enforcement please
2:56:12
dubbed me sir Rev.
2:56:13
Adam Curry: Prosperity guardian
of the of the city of hills
2:56:16
where nothing is on the level.
I'd like. That is pretty fun.
2:56:22
I'd like shepherd's pie,
shepherd's pie in Chandi. Wow. I
2:56:27
haven't had a shandy in a long
time isn't Chandi basically beer
2:56:30
and seventh up
2:56:32
John C Dvorak: was a famous
prostitute out of San Francisco.
2:56:36
Adam Curry: No jingles necessary
just oodles of baby making
2:56:39
karma. I see on the dvorak.org
website where I signed up that
2:56:43
you offered a mothership
boarding pass and a free podcast
2:56:46
license for 3333 donations.
Anyway, I can get either of
2:56:49
these. Well, it's good you ask
about that. Because it was never
2:56:53
an actual license. But we had
pot we have podcast license.com
2:56:59
And the idea was that you got
your name like Sir rev OB sir
2:57:03
rev dot podcast license.com. The
database blew up that maintained
2:57:08
all of that. And I have a
producer who is offering his
2:57:11
time and talent to restore this
so we can once again have
2:57:15
official podcast licenses back
on the dough agenda show when
2:57:18
you will be on there. Give us
some time remember its value for
2:57:21
value. And of course we by the
2:57:23
John C Dvorak: way, as an aside,
yeah, so those would, those
2:57:27
would give you a screenshot you
could print if you wanted to
2:57:30
print your own license out you
unlike with the diploma, which
2:57:35
we produce, it's a beautiful
product. And there's still about
2:57:40
25 people that have not gone to
no agenda rings.com to get the
2:57:44
diploma shipped to their house.
2:57:47
Adam Curry: Please do that. And
here is the karma you requested
2:57:50
good sir.
2:57:50
Unknown: You've got karma. And

McCallum the cigar sounds a
2:58:46
little bit better but it's about
they like it that everyone
2:58:49
always loves that mutton and
meat is just, it's such a
2:58:52
favorite go to no agenda
rings.com As John just
2:58:56

PhD have not collected it yet

2:59:36
John C Dvorak: J sends out to
random waxes with the every
2:59:40
ring. Yes. And she's been
accumulating. I think she's got
2:59:44
about a dozen of these. A wax as
she refuses to send out with the
2:59:50
rings. It is colored, neon hot
pink. There is a pink wax that
2:59:58
you might get. But the knee On
hot pink, she's put aside a
3:00:02
because she thinks is Gosh,
awful. And I said I'll bet you
3:00:06
there are people out there that
would want the hot pink wax
3:00:12
Barbie fans. And I would and I'm
suggesting that you can use
3:00:17
notes at no agenda is
3:00:19
Adam Curry: your question. How
hot is this pink?
3:00:23
John C Dvorak: It's it's
probably as it's neon, hot pink.
3:00:27
It's very, very, very, very hot.
It's hot as it gets. And if
3:00:33
anybody wants this wax with the
ring when they get it next time
3:00:37
or wants to you know make it you
can call it get a hold of notes,

journalists but they were in
fact enslavers.

sooner you learn that the longer
3:09:24
you're gonna live in this world
saying young man oh hell do to
3:09:28
Reno if you're not into the
