winning get my nation media
0:08
assassination episode 1675 This
0:11
Unknown: is no agenda,
scrutinizing
0:14
Adam Curry: the SC O and
broadcasting live from the heart
0:18
of the country here and FEMA
Region number six in the
0:21
morning, everybody. I'm Adam
curry
0:23
John C Dvorak: from Northern
Silicon Valley where the July 4
0:26
fog rolled in right on time
ruining everything. I'm John C.
0:30
Dvorak.
0:31
Unknown: Buzzkill.
0:34
Adam Curry: You've got to be
kidding me. It happened again.
0:37
John C Dvorak: Not only that. We
are we all did dinner on the on
0:42
the Fourth of July here this
Friday. And we're looking out
0:46
and JC was commenting. Well, I
guess there's not going to be
0:49
any. Any fog, finally.
0:53
Adam Curry: Oh, he jinxed it. He
jinxed it. It because it
0:57
John C Dvorak: was hot the day
before and today and it was hot
1:00
on the fourth. And then around
seven o'clock. A huge fog rolled
1:05
in. But the irony is because San
Francisco do rather have people
1:13
peeing on each other in public.
Yes, they didn't even have a
1:16
fourth of July celebration to
get ruined. What do you mean?
1:19
There were no fireworks? What?
And Berkeley didn't have
1:24
fireworks either. What's this
the unpatriotic Cisco Bay Area?
1:29
Fireworks? That's unreal.
Richmond on the third as an
1:32
American.
1:34
Adam Curry: Well, hold on a
second. Is there an explanation
1:37
for this?
1:38
John C Dvorak: I didn't even
know it's not going to happen. I
1:41
just Well, that happens. But
I'll tell you this. It sounds
1:45
like a warzone. Know where to
Richmond and Oakland going off
1:48
yo did it just individuals?
1:51
Adam Curry: Well, I'll tell you
out here. We had maybe two like
1:56
M ad type blasts go off before
10 o'clock. And that was it. I
2:00
had the dog know her thunder
shirt. I had a dope drill ready
2:06
to go. She that she raised her
head like whatever. And she's
2:09
normally very nervous for this.
Nothing. I've talked to a
2:13
surgeon and Austin same thing. I
got text message I got emails
2:17
because we talked about it.
Almost no pre or post fireworks.
2:21
It has been a very quiet year,
which is clear that that to me
2:26
is a massive economic indicator.
2:31
John C Dvorak: But you already
said to me in the last show that
2:34
there are fireworks stands all
the way from Austin to
2:37
Fredericksburg. Yep, left and
right every which way so people
2:41
would have been buying fireworks
and it's legal. Yep. Unlike
2:46
around here or it's not well the
2:48
Adam Curry: good news is that
sir Jean used to consult for a
2:51
couple of these companies
because that those are like $5
2:53
million your businesses. These
guys clean up on this stuff. So
2:57
he was gonna call around for me
he hasn't gotten back to me yet.
3:00
He was going to call around and
see if they took a total bath or
3:03
what happened. But yes to 90
between Austin and
3:07
Fredericksburg is just there
must be nine firework stands.
3:12
You know, they're like these big
like containers. Right? And
3:16
they're there year round you can
buy you know, not all year
3:19
round. I don't think but you
can, you know, there's obvious
3:21
times when they're open but it
was just nothing. It was It was
3:24
unbelievable. We watched the DC
fireworks on TV it was you know,
3:30
that's pathetic. And then the
New York fireworks there's
3:33
nothing else there was nothing
here. I mean, I'm sure that we
3:36
didn't go out of course because
of Phoebe. But I didn't hear
3:39
anything that was going on.
Usually they have it Lady Bird
3:42
Lake. So I'm sure they had
fireworks but no one had any
3:45
stuff going on. I mean, we're
we're pretty close to town
3:48
nothing. And even the day after
us these people shoot and stuff
3:52
remnants stuff off none of it's
no, no, no, this is I think this
3:57
is a along with your rule of
thumb, which is of course the
4:01
sex workers. They get better
looking and cheaper. I don't
4:06
know if they get cheaper. They
get better. The economy gets
4:08
worse as the economy gets worse.
I think this is a new one. But I
4:12
have not yet seen this. And I
think people were just like,
4:15
Nah, I'm not going to blow my
money up in the air. And I got a
4:20
lot of confirmation from around
the country. I know obviously.
4:24
They can't get anything from
anywhere else because it's
4:26
unique to the US but it was it
was stunning. And then to hear
4:31
that. There would no not even
they didn't even have a fourth
4:34
of July in San Francisco. That's
amazing. Amazing.
4:41
John C Dvorak: Well, Berkeley
canceled their Fourth of July
4:43
they use the COVID in 2019. They
use COVID COVID. As an excuse to
4:50
end their fireworks. They used
to have a pretty good fireworks
4:52
display off the pier right into
the bay near Emeryville and they
4:58
ended it then and then they
haven't returned because, you
5:01
know, it's like all the money we
saved. And Sam is the only one
5:05
around here. I mean, there's
some I think Pleasanton has one
5:08
at the county fair. And there's
some other ones here and there.
5:11
But there will only one nearby
is in Richmond. And they do it
5:14
on the third wisely because of
that Fourth of July fog, which
5:19
rolled in on the Fourth of July,
right on time. And so they gave
5:25
a pretty good show, but this
year was kind of it was
5:28
different because they didn't
have the, like, was commenting
5:32
on this in the last show. They
didn't have the hearts. They
5:35
didn't have the smiley faces and
they didn't have my favorite
5:38
firework piece, which is a cube,
which you've ever seen. Yeah,
5:43
you
5:43
Adam Curry: mentioned this, the
kids are
5:45
John C Dvorak: really nice, like
you look at and go, Wow, that's
5:47
a cube.
5:49
Adam Curry: I think people these
days are much more enamored by
5:52
the drone shows.
5:54
John C Dvorak: The drone shows
are terrible. Oh,
5:56
Adam Curry: I thought drone
shows were pretty cool when they
5:58
do it. Right. But
6:00
John C Dvorak: yeah, but it's
just there's no explosions.
6:03
Adam Curry: I agree. I agree.
This country was birthed in the
6:06
middle of explosions. We need to
celebrate it with explosions.
6:09
What is going on
6:10
John C Dvorak: now? Did you hear
about the drone show that went
6:13
arrive? Because up in Seattle,
they've Seattle used to have
6:17
some of the most advanced of
fireworks displays off the
6:20
needle every year because they
had this very famous Japanese
6:23
fireworks designer who would do
them every year. And there was
6:27
fireworks and stuff like you've
never seen before. And that guy
6:30
who retired and he stopped doing
it a couple of years ago and
6:32
then went to drones. And this
year because I mean, he claims
6:37
this because the solar flares,
they lost their GPS and 40 of
6:41
them or 50 of them went into
dream.
6:46
Adam Curry: I shouldn't laugh,
but come on. That's pretty
6:49
funny.
6:50
John C Dvorak: I thought that's
funny, too, because you can
6:51
imagine a big drone show. And
they lose their GPS, because I
6:55
guess they're all you know,
they're computerized. But they
6:57
need GPS. Oh, yeah, of course
they do. Say to all of a sudden
7:02
lose GPS and all come flying
into the crowds. Can you imagine
7:06
that? No. Oh, no.
7:08
Adam Curry: Well, there was an
interesting moment during this
7:12
Fourth of July celebration at
the White House event with not
7:15
one but two kind of gaffes. I
would say one from the
7:18
President, one from the Vice
President have a listen.
7:23
Unknown: Before the July,
everyone Happy Independence Day.
7:29
And today as we celebrate
freedom, as we celebrate the
7:33
promise of America, we also
celebrate and express our
7:37
gratitude to our servicemembers,
to our veterans to our military
7:41
families. And we give thanks to
our Commander in Chief the the
7:49
President of the United States.
7:52
Adam Curry: Did she almost say
the vice president? I kind of
7:55
heard that. Baby Now listen,
Commander
7:59
Unknown: in Chief, the Vice
President.
8:10
Oh, oh,
8:14
Adam Curry: Happy Independence
Day. Well, at least he got the
8:17
Independence Day Out. That's
what I wanted to say. I want you
8:20
to throw a freedom out that
would if we could have used the
8:22
good freedom. Very, very
bizarre. Our president our poor
8:29
president is not doing so well.
8:31
John C Dvorak: So what was the
you have the other Gaff? No,
8:34
that
8:34
Adam Curry: was that was too
that was her so that was him
8:37
going in going hohoho Mary I
mean that we didn't.
8:40
John C Dvorak: Well, Merry
Christmas. Yeah.
8:43
Adam Curry: Oh, Happy
Independence Day. Okay. I see
8:47
you have the clips. So I will
get us going with a little intro
8:50
background or 30 seconds just to
get us all pumped
8:53
Unknown: this Week with George
Stephanopoulos starts right now.
8:57
standing firm.
8:58
I'm staying in the race. DONALD
TRUMP, President Biden fights to
9:03
save his candidacy by just
having a bad night. I don't know
9:06
why. pressure
9:07
mounts for him to step aside.
9:10
qualified to be president over
women's race. Can
9:14
he reassure voters? Would you be
willing to have the independent
9:17
medical evaluation quell the
panic in his own party? Do you
9:21
really believe you're not behind
right now? Oh,
9:23
Adam Curry: man, what a
Hootenanny Of course. We both
9:25
watched it. John, what did you
think?
9:29
John C Dvorak: It was a whole 22
minutes.
9:31
Adam Curry: Yeah, it was it was
the extended remix.
9:36
John C Dvorak: Well, there was a
I have a I have three clips. I
9:40
have the the opening salvo which
ended with Assange.
9:44
Stephanopoulos was was obviously
just reading from from an anti
9:48
Biden script provided to him by
the Council on Foreign
9:51
Relations. Anyone who read the
last newsletter knows my thesis
9:55
on this and you're not
disagreeing with him?
9:58
Adam Curry: No, no, I in fact, I
only have clip to back you up
10:00
later, obviously.
10:03
John C Dvorak: It's because once
you dawns on you,
10:06
Adam Curry: hello, the only
person who is not on the Council
10:09
on Foreign Relations who's out
there is Axelrod, who was of
10:13
course, Obama's campaign
designer and mastermind and
10:17
manager the first time around.
Axelrod, not, he shouldn't be a
10:21
CFR member, I feel but he's more
the. He's more of the Chicago
10:25
mob guy. And he's everywhere.
He's everywhere right now.
10:29
John C Dvorak: He's probably one
of those guys who wouldn't be a
10:31
member. There's people that just
won't do it. Yeah. Because you
10:34
know that when you become a
member, they take into a
10:36
backroom and juice you up with
stuff and brainwash, and then
10:39
give you an electric shock.
Yeah.
10:41
Adam Curry: And then, and then
take that, and then take a
10:44
picture.
10:47
John C Dvorak: Yes, it was
something in your mind. Exactly.
10:51
So let's start with this is the
killer. When is the right at the
10:57
beginning? And I thought this
was was interesting, because
11:02
this was played by a lot of
people and nobody picked up on
11:05
the obvious question.
11:06
Unknown: Is this a bad episode?
With a sign of a more serious
11:09
condition?
11:10
is a bad episode? No, indicates
very serious condition. I was
11:14
exhausted. I didn't listen to my
instincts. In terms of parents,
11:19
bad nights.
11:21
You know, you say you were
exhausted. And I know you've
11:23
said that before as well. But
you came and you did have a
11:26
tough month. But you came home
from Europe about 11 or 12 days
11:29
before the debate spent six days
in Camp David, why wasn't that
11:34
enough? Rest Time enough
recovery time?
11:36
Because I was sick. I was
feeling terrible. Matter of
11:39
fact, the docs with me, I asked
him they did a COVID test. We
11:41
were trying to figure out what's
wrong. You did a test to see
11:44
whether or not I had some
infection. No virus. I didn't
11:49
just have a really bad cold.
11:52
Did you ever watch the debate
afterwards?
11:55
I don't think I did.
11:57
Adam Curry: But before we get
into the content of that, what
12:02
in the world is going on with
the ABC audio engineers? What is
12:07
happening? I mean, this must be
purposeful. This, this was so
12:13
horrible. It made Biden sound
even weaker than he already is
12:16
in his speech. And the room
noise, there was no reason for
12:21
this.
12:26
John C Dvorak: Well, that's a
good point.
12:27
Adam Curry: It says he was like
that guy that used to put them
12:29
in a bucket. Remember that guy?
12:32
John C Dvorak: Yeah. Yeah, they
used to put a bucket in the
12:33
corner. Throw the mic in there.
Yeah. To know, it's a trick.
12:37
It's a technique.
12:38
Adam Curry: And now that, you
know, more people are noticing
12:40
this in the audio field. And
they're saying things like, even
12:45
during the debate, his audio was
weirdly processed. I don't know
12:49
if you have a bit at one point,
Biden leans forward, and you go
12:52
like, and he's saying, you know,
I'm, I'm doing all this in the
12:57
middle of the wars and but his
that his audio was like, it was
13:00
really something some harmonic,
it was very odd. Disturbingly
13:06
bad. For a professional organ. I
mean, dude, does show number
13:11
three sounded better. In 2007.
We were doing it through Skype.
13:16
I mean, it's crazy how bad it
was, it was just really bad. But
13:21
John C Dvorak: what the point I
was going to make with that clip
13:23
was this was the very end of the
clip were Stephanopoulos doesn't
13:27
follow up. The I saw a fox play
this clip, I saw everybody plays
13:31
clip and nobody said anything
about it, which surprises me,
13:35
which is that the Andy's asked
if he saw the debate. And you
13:38
can play that at the very end
again.
13:40
Adam Curry: Oops, sorry. Yeah,
sorry. I don't think I saw it
13:44
really bad cold.
13:47
Unknown: Did you ever watch the
debate afterwards?
13:50
I don't think I did. No,
13:52
John C Dvorak: I don't think so.
The question, What do you mean,
13:54
you don't think you did? He
doesn't know if you watch the
13:59
debate. After he did the debate.
Now, I know a lot of people
14:03
don't like watching themselves.
There's a lot of actors will
14:06
never watch their own movies.
There's people that do that. He
14:08
could say that I you know, I
don't like watching myself. You
14:11
could you know, but he didn't
say that. He says, I don't know.
14:14
I don't know if I saw it again.
I don't remember that. That was
14:18
very disconcerning. And that
brings me to a note. After you
14:21
play the next clip. I'm gonna
read the note from a
14:23
neurologist, who I think has got
the right determination here
14:27
that's coming up. And I think
it's confirmed by this next clip
14:30
is a very short clip. And this
is the this is the just a
14:37
shouting clip.
14:39
Unknown: Yes, okay. I was having
a bad night when I realized
14:42
that. Even when I was answering
a question, even when I turned
14:46
his mic off, he was still
shouting. And I loved it
14:49
distract me.
14:54
John C Dvorak: At this point, we
know he didn't watch the debate,
14:57
you know,
14:58
Adam Curry: and he wasn't even
there. Big
15:02
John C Dvorak: because if he had
watched the debate, he'd know
15:04
that it was most 90% That time
was a two shot. It wasn't a two
15:09
shot but as a double box. Yes.
So they had Trump in a box and
15:13
him in a box. So you saw Trump
the whole time. And you never
15:16
once saw him shouting over with
a dead mic. No, I cannot. But I
15:22
can remember shouting at all,
but he wasn't shouting with the
15:25
dead might, which makes me think
that makes it and I feel bad
15:30
about some of this. It makes me
think that Biden is having
15:35
hallucinations. Which brings me
to this note from Yes, I
15:38
Adam Curry: put this in the show
notes. This is good. This,
15:41
John C Dvorak: this says do not
use my name. I'm anonymous. He's
15:44
our new anonymous neurologist.
The symptoms probably started
15:48
when vite Biden was VP. He's
talking about these
15:53
manifestations and manifest as
frequent gaffes. And, you know,
15:59
I'm reading this note and then I
also have a note for I have a
16:02
little rundown from the Mayo
Clinic on this phenomenon. And
16:07
it now it makes me feel bad
about art drunk or not drunk.
16:15
Oh,
16:15
Adam Curry: okay. Oh, wow. Now
we have to feel bad about it. We
16:19
are swear
16:20
John C Dvorak: you're the one
that kept saying this elder
16:22
abuse. We shouldn't be doing
this.
16:24
Adam Curry: Yeah. And then you
made me give that up. You said I
16:26
don't care he deserves he
deserves
16:29
John C Dvorak: this exam. You're
right. You're absolutely right.
16:32
I bitched about you complaining
and then you just relented and
16:38
we continued it. But now I feel
now I feel bad. What can I say?
16:41
All right, okay,
16:41
Adam Curry: you're a match.
16:43
John C Dvorak: I don't.
16:44
Adam Curry: What can I say
you're
16:45
John C Dvorak: a man just
symptoms probably started
16:47
inviting Biden was VP and
manifests his frequent gaffes.
16:52
This resulted in episodes of MIS
remembering and fabricating
16:55
stories from his past. This was
reminiscent of President Reagan
16:59
when he was accused of confusing
movie roles with reality. And it
17:03
predated his announcement that
he had developed Alzheimer's
17:06
Adam Curry: and let's let's
please remember that every
17:09
psychologist was out there
analyzing Trump as being insane,
17:14
you know, narcissistic
personality disorder, all kinds
17:17
of things they did.
17:19
John C Dvorak: Yeah, and you
continue to do so. Yeah, where's
17:22
that here? Over time, Biden's
episode occurred more
17:26
frequently, outbursts of anger
and irritability emerged, and
17:30
the conditions seem to interfere
with his judgment and self
17:33
control. Over the last two
years, the signs of a
17:36
Parkinsonian syndrome Declining
Balance stiffness showing
17:40
slowing down soft voice mumbling
and difficult to understand
17:44
speech became apparent no tremor
has been noted. This is typical
17:48
presentation of diffuse Lewy
Body disease, D L B. And it
17:57
would be less likely be
consistent with its its it less
18:01
likely be consistent with
Parkinson's DLB is worse, as the
18:06
cognitive and phys psychiatric
symptoms are more severe, and
18:10
there is no treatment and the
disease tends to progress more
18:14
quickly. And this would Robin
Williams died of yes,
18:18
Adam Curry: we also put a video
in the show notes of his widow
18:22
from 2020 to doing a TED talk
about this. That's videos quite
18:28
an I've watched his only 10
minutes was quite interesting.
18:32
That
18:32
John C Dvorak: video is a cry is
from 2022. And it cropped up I
18:38
believe it was planted to cry it
was cry. It was made to crop up
18:41
this is starting to be
introduced i I'm convinced by
18:45
the again the CFR out to get by
and they have to get rid of him
18:49
because this is becoming
ridiculous. And so I went to the
18:52
I send you another one of which
will be in the show notes which
18:55
is Lewy body dementia symptoms
and causes Yes, from the Mayo
18:59
Clinic. And one of the things
that's in there is visual
19:03
hallucinations, which Robin had
issues with. And these are
19:09
frightening hallucinations. And
if you remember, which is why I
19:12
think he said that he imagined
but he's he's so Trump still
19:17
shouting.
19:19
Adam Curry: Oh, okay. Yes, yes.
If he has that diagnosis if that
19:23
is true, and there's a lot of
evidence that points towards it
19:26
this what is it called Louis?
19:29
John C Dvorak: Le wy, body bluee
Lewy bodies a little is a
19:34
protein it gets stuck I guess in
the brain,
19:37
Adam Curry: which means it
because of course Parkinson's is
19:40
typically equated to the
trembling, tremors shaking. But
19:44
that obviously is not all of the
story.
19:48
John C Dvorak: Yeah, he's not he
doesn't have he doesn't show any
19:50
tremors. So but but this idea it
harkens back to about I think it
19:57
was three years ago. The first
time Um, that we saw the Easter
20:02
Egg Roll in Washington DC where
they introduced that giant
20:06
bunny.
20:07
Adam Curry: Oh, right. And the
bunny was his handler.
20:10
John C Dvorak: And, and at one
time, Biden turned around and
20:14
saw the bunny. And freaked out
as if it was an illusion nation.
20:19
Remember this? Yes,
20:20
Adam Curry: yes. Oh, man, boy,
hey, you need to come to the
20:23
courage of war i Consulting
Group for all your psychological
20:26
problems, we can help. We can
solve it, we're good.
20:29
John C Dvorak: So Biden looks at
the bunny and freaks out and
20:32
then kind of runs away from the
bunny as though he's running
20:35
away from him. Maybe he's
obviously been having
20:38
hallucinations calling me. And
you hired for Thank you. And so
20:43
the this idea that Trump was
shouting when we all witnessed
20:50
that he was not shouting. And he
wasn't shouting with the mic off
20:54
because we can see the two shot
because they kept showing it was
20:58
his it was Biden's imagination.
So Biden is imagining things.
21:02
And
21:03
Adam Curry: he probably imagined
that later, not maybe not even
21:05
at the time, he just imagined it
later.
21:08
John C Dvorak: He could have
reconstructed it. And by the
21:11
Adam Curry: way, how easy would
it be to suggest to someone like
21:14
that?
21:16
John C Dvorak: And that's a good
point. Do a couple more little
21:19
just before symptoms or before
repair my last clip from the
21:22
debate or debate, whatever it's
called. movement disorder, signs
21:27
of Parkinson's disease known as
Parkinson's signs may occur. The
21:31
symptoms include slowed
movements, rigid muscles, tremor
21:35
or shuffling walk. This can
cause a person to fall
21:39
Adam Curry: Oh, yeah, many times
up the stairs, on the podium
21:42
everywhere.
21:44
John C Dvorak: Poor regulation
of body functions. The part of
21:49
the nervous system that controls
automatic functions is called
21:52
the automatic nervous system.
Their Lewy Body Dementia can
21:54
affect how well the auto nomic
nervous system controls blood
22:00
pressure, heart rate, blah,
blah, blah, this can result in
22:03
death, dizziness, falls, and
bladder control and death and
22:08
bowel issues. Okay.
22:12
Adam Curry: I'm not going to
take us to D day that's not
22:14
fair.
22:15
John C Dvorak: cognate cognitive
problems. Trouble with sleep.
22:20
This is interesting. They have
to take a lot of naps. And the
22:23
NAPS have come into the
conversation of varying
22:27
attention episodes of
drowsiness, long periods of
22:30
staring into space, long naps
during the day, or a
22:36
disorganized speech or possible.
Depression and apathy. And a
22:42
couple other things that this is
in the show notes. I did. I sent
22:46
it to you can put it in there.
And just from the Mayo Clinic,
22:50
so So when I heard him, I just
want to mention that stuff.
22:56
Because when I heard him say
that he said Trump was shouting
22:59
and it was distracting him. I'm
thinking, well, this is this is
23:03
this guy's shot. Anyway, so we
have the Council on Foreign
23:07
Relations going after him to get
rid of him for obvious reasons
23:10
now. And and John Carl, who is a
member of the Council on Foreign
23:15
Relations,
23:18
Adam Curry: was off course of
course he is. Yeah, of
23:21
John C Dvorak: course he is
because everyone knows a
23:23
reporter from ABC should be an
expert on Foreign Relations. So
23:28
John, Jonathan Karl is actually
his name. Jonathan Karl is one
23:33
of the analysts at the end of
this 22 minute thing. And he is
23:39
on board with getting rid of
Biden and he makes a big fuss
23:41
about it. And so he has some
comment, his very negative he
23:46
did he actually doubled down on
you know, Stephanopoulos seem to
23:51
be kind of mixed hadn't,
apparently, I think mixed
23:55
feelings. He didn't look like he
was comfortable delivering this
23:58
blow, which was, it wasn't
harsh, but it wasn't, you know,
24:03
didn't prove anything positive
for Biden. But Carl decides to
24:07
come in. And this is I think his
one of his comments that was
24:12
Unknown: piling on, that he is
losing in the view of many
24:16
Democrats and frankly, in the
polls, you cited that he is
24:20
losing to Donald Trump. And
there was one question that you
24:23
asked where his answer is,
particularly, I believe,
24:27
alarming to to some of those
Democrats. You asked him how he
24:31
will feel in January, if he has
lost to Donald Trump and all
24:36
that he has warned what happened
came to pass and this was his
24:39
answer. He said, all feel as
long as I gave it my all and did
24:44
the best job. I know I can do
that. That's what this is about.
24:49
One prominent ally of the
President simply responded to
24:54
me. Wow. When I asked about
24:56
Adam Curry: that question,
unnamed ally of course.
24:59
Unknown: So the bottom line
here. There was nothing in this
25:02
interview that will force Joe
Biden out of the race. There was
25:06
no you know, major thing that
will convince him or any of his
25:10
allies. I believe they have to
go but there's also nothing in
25:14
this interview that will calm
the nerves of Democrats were
25:18
saying it is time for him to get
out. All right,
25:21
Adam Curry: I have if you're, if
that's it for now I
25:25
John C Dvorak: can that will be
my presentation. Okay. Look good
25:28
chef.
25:30
Adam Curry: Thank you. Thank you
chef off to CBS, which stands
25:34
for Chef broadcasting systems.
25:36
Unknown: I'm Robert Costa in
Washington and this week on Face
25:40
The Nation with July 4 behind us
the week ahead could be a
25:43
critical one for the political
future of President Joe Biden
25:47
and the Democratic Party. 10
days after Mr. Biden's moments
25:52
rattled Democrats, many of them
across the country are privately
25:56
and publicly questioning whether
he is the strongest candidate to
26:00
face former President Donald
Trump. President Biden says he's
26:04
up to the job and insists as he
did in an exclusive interview
26:08
with ABC News is George
Stephanopoulos that he will not
26:11
quit the race for
26:12
more and I'm ready to give rise
to Joker now the race. The race
26:15
is Lord Almighty is not coming
down.
26:16
But the pressure on the
President to consider stepping
26:19
aside from the contest is
intensifying. And with Congress
26:23
back in session, and key US
allies headed to Washington for
26:27
a NATO meeting. The next few
days are said to be crucial
26:30
ones. Okay?
26:31
Adam Curry: So it's all staging.
It's all very dramatic music. Of
26:35
course, NBC Meet the Press all
in this Sunday
26:38
Unknown: pressure campaign. to
election day, a defiant
26:42
President Biden vows he's
staying in the race,
26:46
running and gonna win again.
26:49
But as his poll numbers plummet
and Democrats consider vice
26:52
president Harris at the top of
the ticket pressure is building
26:56
for him to drop out.
26:57
I think it's a legitimate
question to say, is this an
27:01
episode or is this a condition?
He has to show that he can do
27:05
the job? He does not have a lot
of time?
27:08
Can the 81 year old President
reassure his party, he's still
27:11
fit to serve on a cognitive test
every single day? Every day?
27:18
Adam Curry: I meet so at this
point, and I think there's
27:21
something going on behind the
scenes which I'll get to this is
27:24
all just window dressing. This
is just to let me get everybody
27:28
into it like it's over. It's I
mean, literally, what is the one
27:33
article is this Biden's ABC
interview flops? This is from
27:37
Axios. With Hill Democrats
quote, He's toast. So I mean,
27:42
we're this is it's I think
there's already things being
27:45
arranged. And I have some ideas
about that. First, let's go to
27:48
the network that scored this
exclusive. ABC. Tonight
27:53
Unknown: President Biden hoping
to turn the page saying calls
27:56
for him to drop out of the race
over concerns about his age are
27:59
nonsense. In a campaign
fundraising message, Biden
28:02
saying they were wrong when they
said we couldn't take on the NRA
28:05
or Big Pharma or big oil. Forget
the pundits, his team arguing
28:09
that over the last 24 hours out
on the campaign trail and
28:13
sitting down with our George
Stephanopoulos, the President
28:16
has demonstrated he is fit to
serve and has a path to win a
28:20
source familiar with the
campaign's thinking telling ABC
28:22
News, again
28:24
Adam Curry: that all of it is
there's no one's actually coming
28:26
on the air and saying much.
There's a couple of congress
28:29
people who have been pushed to
the foreground but in general is
28:33
all sources say people familiar
with they don't really have the
28:36
people who have either the balls
to do it or the authority to do
28:41
it. This is all marketing at
this point. Millia
28:44
Unknown: with the campaign's
thinking, telling ABC News,
28:46
we're electing a president to
lead and deliver for the
28:48
American people in an incredibly
dangerous and fraught time.
28:52
We're not electing a performer
for a reality TV show. But a
28:55
growing chorus of Democrats
unconvinced five current House
29:00
Democrats now calling on Joe
Biden to step aside
29:03
Adam Curry: five. How many are
there how many House Democrats
29:05
are there like 270?
29:09
John C Dvorak: No. Less than
200.
29:12
Adam Curry: I'm just saying they
can only get hundreds. Yeah,
29:15
they can only get five to talk.
29:16
Unknown: The latest to join the
call represented Angie Craig of
29:19
Minnesota, a must win state for
President Biden, another of
29:23
those House Democrats, Mike
Quigley of Illinois, celebrating
29:26
Biden's record, but saying he
does not think the President can
29:30
win
29:30
was a tough race. It's brutal.
Now, with the greatest respect.
29:34
I don't think he's up for it.
29:36
A handful of heavyweight donors
also publicly weighing in
29:40
Netflix co founder Reed Hastings
saying he needs to step aside
29:43
but others forcefully defending
Biden, including Pennsylvania
29:47
senator john Fetterman. I
wouldn't
29:49
Adam Curry: be here right now if
I didn't absolutely believe that
29:52
he is the right man. That's the
endorsement. You want that guy
29:56
and he has deserved
29:59
Unknown: to have Ark kinds of
support and all that and
30:02
thermonuclear meltdown and just
a couple of days after that it's
30:05
Adam Curry: like for Democrats
for God's sake, you know, get a
30:09
spine or grow a set one or the
other. A lot of God coming in I
30:14
mean by I don't have it but
Biden saying, Oh, no, no. Until
30:17
God tells comes down and tells
me to stop. I'm not stopping.
30:20
Okay. Do it. There's
30:21
John C Dvorak: one of the
pundits on, on fox that said,
30:25
Biden's age, he shouldn't be
invoking God.
30:30
Adam Curry: He's just like, come
down. Hey, Josh. Trouble. These
30:34
are two short ones with the
recline. Who is the political I
30:37
think the boss is the political
coverage over the ABC. Let's get
30:41
Unknown: right to ABC News.
political director Rick Klein
30:43
and Rick give us the big picture
right and remains defiant. But
30:47
the clock is ticking towards the
convention.
30:49
Where does he stand in this race
right now?
30:51
Adam Curry: This is great.
defiant clock is ticking.
30:53
Unknown: Wait no matter what Joe
Biden says about the polls and
30:56
whether he believes them or not.
They are the reality right now.
30:58
The 538 national polling average
has Biden trailing by about two
31:01
points to former President Trump
and in every single one of the
31:04
major seven battleground states,
he right now is behind it. That
31:07
was the reality going into the
debate. And there are many
31:09
people watching the interview
last night who thought that he
31:12
turned that around
substantially, those numbers are
31:14
going to be interesting to watch
in a very consequential couple
31:16
of days ahead. Okay.
31:17
Adam Curry: So thank you, Rick,
for saying nothing. But let's
31:20
get back to how about Trump and
Rick, what about Biden's
31:22
opponent, Donald Trump and his
campaign? How
31:24
Unknown: are they responding to
31:25
this turmoil among the
Democrats? Trump has been
31:28
uncharacteristically quiet, he
did put out a pretty snarky
31:32
statement encouraging Biden to
stay in the race after the
31:34
interview with George. But he
also has a lot on his own plate.
31:38
His convention the Republican
Convention starts in just nine
31:41
days and before then he's almost
certain to choose a vice
31:44
presidential running mate, even
though the contours of this race
31:47
are quite unsettled as of this
moment,
31:49
Adam Curry: as of this moment.
Okay, so of course, Trump did do
31:52
something very sneaky, which we
I got a reasonable copy of it.
31:57
It's only 42 seconds. Most
people have probably seen it.
32:00
This is the leaked golf cart.
Chat. She
32:03
John C Dvorak: Yes, the league
got which I tell you we had it
32:05
the last No, no, no. Audio is
bad. Yeah.
32:08
Adam Curry: This is a better
audio, which I got from somebody
32:12
must have fixed it. Believe me.
Trump made a call Hey, hey, you
32:17
can't really hear it. The no
agenda guys need to be able to
32:21
play it. Oh, here it is. gave me
32:23
Unknown: so much. As if he has
broken down. He just quit. You
32:31
know, he's quitting the rest. Is
that right? I guess that means
32:35
we have Kamala, I think she's
gonna be better. She's so
32:41
so pathetic. It's, it's it's
just, I just can't imagine but
32:45
can you imagine that go with
dealing with Putin and the
32:49
president of China who's a
fierce person. He's a fierce
32:52
man. Very tough guy. And they
see them they they just
32:58
announced he's, he's probably
quitting.
33:05
Adam Curry: So, so clearly, they
they went back and sweetened
33:09
this or got a better copy and
let it out there. Thank you. We
33:12
appreciate that for the show.
It's always good.
33:15
John C Dvorak: should mention
that in there. He did. Give GE a
33:20
haulout. Yeah, well,
33:21
Adam Curry: Putin, obviously
33:23
John C Dvorak: on purpose to to
boost him. But also that's
33:26
that's
33:26
Adam Curry: what the American
people really need to hear. You
33:29
know, the debate. None of
nothing was really about what
33:32
and certainly the the Biden
campaign is doing. Is there not
33:36
saying this is why you want him?
No, it's only to beat Trump to
33:40
beat Trump. But that that, that
horses is already broken down in
33:44
the field of horses glue, it's
glue, you know, no one would no
33:48
one cares about that anymore.
People care about why can't I
33:51
afford fireworks? So here's the
knot. Here's the non CFR David
33:56
Axelrod on CNN, with with his
very cool, he was pretty quiet.
34:02
We haven't heard much from
Axelrod until until the debate
34:05
now he's everywhere.
34:06
Unknown: Well, the question is
that he changed the minds of
34:08
voters who are watching that. I
don't really think so. You know,
34:12
he, Jim, I think that some of
it, I found sad, but he he seems
34:19
not to be able to compute the
fact that people have these
34:23
questions about him. He said, I
have a you know, when George
34:27
Stephanopoulos asked him if he'd
be willing to take a cognitive
34:30
test. He said, I take a
cognitive test every day. Well,
34:35
the fact is, that may be true,
but 75% of the American people
34:40
think he fail. They they fail.
So I mean, they're they've lost
34:44
and so this is a real problem
for him, and it's something that
34:48
shows up in every poll. And in
terms of where he stands in the
34:53
race. You know, that no
politician out there will tell
35:00
only has the same perception
that the President does that
35:03
this is a tied race and he's
right in the hunt right now. He
35:07
was 10 points ahead four years
ago, he's six points behind now
35:11
worsens in most of the
battleground states, and now in
35:15
danger of losing states that
weren't thought to be in
35:18
contention. So what you see,
Jim, you saw in Wisconsin today,
35:22
Tammy Baldwin, the senator from
Wisconsin, wasn't at this event.
35:26
Why because she's up for
reelection and it's not helpful
35:30
to helpful to her to be seen
with the President. This is
35:33
what's going to happen. And some
somebody really needs to be
35:37
honest with him about it. It's
it can't be the good Lord, but
35:41
it should be people who love and
care for him and his closest
35:45
advisors. His portrait of where
he is in this race doesn't
35:49
comport with reality.
35:50
Adam Curry: This really amazing
how they bring God into this.
35:53
Everyone's doing that ever since
Joe invoked it to weird now
35:57
let's go to an actual CFR member
from the the European arm of the
36:02
Central Intelligence propaganda
new services, Deutsche Avella.
36:06
Now, who would they bring on who
is a fine CFR member over there
36:11
in Europe?
36:14
John C Dvorak: Could be anybody?
36:15
Adam Curry: I don't know. Ian
Bremmer?
36:17
John C Dvorak: Oh god, yes.
36:19
Unknown: Ever more. Now I'm
joined by Ian Bremmer. He's an
36:21
author and president of the
geopolitical risk consultancy
36:24
Eurasia group. Ian, it's good to
have you back on the show. We
36:27
need
36:27
Adam Curry: to this should be
the creative or act geopolitical
36:29
Consulting Group I
36:30
John C Dvorak: come up with a
dynamite name. We can consult
36:34
with ourselves. This is a great
name sources within
36:37
Adam Curry: the C C and D.
Geopolitical consultancy, say
36:42
even more
36:42
Unknown: now I'm joined by Ian
Bremmer, he's an author and
36:45
president of the geopolitical
risk consultancy Eurasia group.
36:48
Ian, it's good to have you back
on the show. You've got the
36:50
president there saying judge me
by the past three and a half
36:53
years don't judge me by 90
minutes from last week. But the
36:57
polls suggest that is not what
people are doing. This
37:01
John C Dvorak: has been the most
significant concern of Biden's
37:07
campaign and potential
reelection is that he's too old
37:10
to serve. I've never seen an
election campaign in any major
37:16
democracy, where a person
running is clearly not going to
37:22
be physically able to serve out
the entire term. And there's
37:26
nobody that thinks that Biden
would be able, for four more
37:31
years to actually act as
president now, that implies he
37:36
really shouldn't have been
running for reelection a year
37:40
ago. And a lot of people have
been saying that and concerned
37:44
about it. But Biden himself has
not been the issue. Is that what
37:48
everyone's been worried about
quietly, everyone now is worried
37:53
about in public. And that is the
fact that Biden's age and his
37:59
physical capacity, and to less
of a degree, perhaps his mental
38:05
acuity, but it's really I think
about the ability to just serve
38:09
in the role. It's a very, very
pressing job. Very few people
38:13
believe that he's up for that.
And that that is the nature of
38:17
the crisis that he and the
Democrat Party Democratic party
38:20
today is facing United States.
38:22
Adam Curry: Interesting that he
switched from the correct term
38:25
Democrat Party to Democratic
Party that I haven't heard that
38:29
done at the end there. But I
think these are the talking
38:34
points is like, hey, you know,
this might be something going on
38:37
with his mental acuity, but
really, it's just as clearly as
38:39
not
38:41
John C Dvorak: just instead of
getting into the possibility
38:45
that he has dementia of one form
or another, let's just be ageist
38:50
about it. But everybody can can
relate to ages.
38:55
Adam Curry: People Yes, of
course, I'm starting to
38:56
understand that more and more
myself every day.
39:00
John C Dvorak: To be my age. He
is going
39:01
Adam Curry: to hammer at home
here though.
39:03
John C Dvorak: They are saying
that this is a problem and it
39:05
needs to be addressed. And
frankly, it needs to have been
39:09
addressed a week ago. They
shouldn't have waited until
39:14
Friday, the week after the
debate to have a sit down no
39:19
holds barred, taped interview
with a friendly George
39:24
Stephanopoulos and to be out
there more media
39:27
Adam Curry: friendly to who in
to the Democrats or to the CFR,
39:31
I'm thinking he means a friendly
to the CFR
39:34
John C Dvorak: with a friendly
George Stephanopoulos need to be
39:38
out there more immediately. And
and more extensively. But but
39:44
they know that over the next,
you know, weeks, they're going
39:49
to have to address this in a way
that is seen as satisfactory by
39:54
the bulk of Biden supporters or
Biden is going to have to stand
39:58
down and I If you asked me what
I expect, at this point, and I'm
40:04
not saying this on the basis of
having spoken to Biden, but I
40:09
expect that Biden will not be
the nominee. I think his name
40:14
will not be on the ballot in
November.
40:16
Adam Curry: There you go. So
that's that's the final word.
40:18
And what he says is, they know,
they know, they know. So he,
40:22
he's not talking about the
Democrat Party. He's talking
40:25
about the Biden family. And we
know that the Biden crime family
40:32
got together with Hunter, you
know, they're all sitting there,
40:34
Jill, of course, we know that
she's the power player. She's
40:37
the only one that can really
control Joe. And really, that he
40:40
I'm sure looks to his look to
her for 47 years, as you pointed
40:44
out, on the last show, you know,
Biden has, I mean, just got even
40:48
just his legislation, the 94
crime bill, but the way he would
40:52
talk to people, he was a douche.
He always was just a mean
40:55
spirited, retail politician. And
so Biden.
41:02
John C Dvorak: No, I didn't say
who I said hope. Because yeah, I
41:04
liked the idea of a retail
politician. Thank you. Thank
41:08
Adam Curry: you. I don't know
where I picked that up. It's not
41:10
not one of my own. And, and if
you're in politics for 50 years,
41:16
and you're still there, I mean,
you know, people say Why did
41:19
Obama choose Biden? How about he
has that type of power? How
41:24
about he has the goods on
people?
41:26
John C Dvorak: I don't want to
you know, this is really irks
41:28
him that I'm gonna bring this
up?
41:29
Adam Curry: No, you're I am, I
am agreeing. And I already know
41:33
John C Dvorak: No, but I want to
what I want to bring up is a
41:36
clip that we lost. Oh. And I
brought it up before it was a
41:42
couple of black guys on some
podcasts or something. And this
41:47
was like, I'd say, during the,
during the Obama administration,
41:52
were one of the black guy says
you don't have a clue about
41:55
what's really going on with
Obama. And that White House, Joe
41:58
Biden is a pot as is a powerful
man. And he went on and on about
42:03
him being like the head of a
crime family and a gangster and
42:06
somebody you had to be careful
about. And it was it was just an
42:09
off the wall clip that we
played. And I always remembered
42:14
it beat by Unfortunately, I
couldn't couldn't find in a
42:17
million years because it who
knows how it was titled. But
42:21
I've ever since I heard that
I've always taken a secondary
42:25
look, which will always brought
me to the default, by the way,
42:28
always brought me to the idea
that in some ways Biden was
42:31
faking his ailments as a as
Vincent the chin giganteum
42:36
during them up, but now with
this Lewy bodies things? I don't
42:41
think so. No,
42:42
Adam Curry: but the family?
Look, we know, look, we know
42:45
that the family has had this
fantastic business going on with
42:51
getting money. I mean, let's
just, you know, let's rewind the
42:54
tape here for a second. We know
what Hunter has been getting in.
42:57
We know what what Joe Biden, and
we know that, you know, the
43:00
billion dollars in Ukraine. I
mean, the guy had power that,
43:04
you know, why else would Barack
Obama have him in there? That it
43:09
seems like he has, or certainly
had some power. And that power
43:13
now rests was Jill. And Jill, of
course, at this point, knows
43:17
that this has to come to you
again. So I think there's a
43:20
negotiation going on. I have
thoughts about it. First, let's
43:24
just briefly hear from the BBC,
another
43:27
Unknown: Democratic member of
the US Congress has called on
43:30
President Biden to drop out of
November's election race
43:33
in all five Democrats in the
House of Representatives have
43:36
called on Joe Biden to step
aside, the latest to come
43:40
forward is Angie Craig, a member
from the state of Minnesota, she
43:44
said she didn't believe that the
President could effectively
43:46
campaign and win against Donald
Trump. There was she said,
43:50
simply too much at stake. And
Mr. Biden should make way for a
43:54
new generation of leaders.
43:56
Adam Curry: Now, just before I
get to the final bits here,
44:00
there was a feeble attempt
before this Stephanopoulos
44:04
interview, to get Joe in with
the blacks. I mean, that's the
44:08
only thing they're still trying
to do is keep him in with the
44:10
blacks. And he did two
interviews with black radio. And
44:17
see Oh,
44:18
John C Dvorak: I hope you have
the clip. Yeah,
44:20
Adam Curry: CNN had had to, of
course, help us understand that
44:24
even that was phony it up
44:26
Unknown: each were you asked for
questions. And maybe that's what
44:29
you're allowed to ask by the
campaign or the White House. But
44:34
there were essentially the same
questions, both interviews about
44:36
accomplishments, progress in
your respective state, what's at
44:40
stake in the election, what he
has to say about his debate
44:42
performance, and what he would
say to voters who think their
44:45
vote doesn't matter or might sit
this election out. Were those
44:49
questions given to you by the
White House, or did you have for
44:52
the campaign, or did you have to
submit questions ahead of this
44:57
interview?
44:58
The questions were sent to me
for approval, I approve to them.
45:02
Okay,
45:03
so the White House sent the
questions to you ahead of the
45:06
interview? Yes. Okay. I
45:08
got several questions, eight of
them. And the four that were
45:10
chosen were the ones that I
approved. I love
45:13
Adam Curry: this. I approved
those questions of the eight
45:16
that they sent me. It makes you
sound like you there were See, I
45:21
know I was in total control this
interview. And because I
45:24
approved four of the
45:27
John C Dvorak: questions that I
was allowed of the eight I was
45:30
allowed to choose from.
45:32
Adam Curry: So all of that just
shows that this is over. And now
45:35
we need to figure out how to get
Joe out. And I really have the
45:40
feeling that Jill is in control
hunters in there because the
45:44
Biden fit including his brother.
They're like, hey, look, the
45:48
minute Joe's out, the gravy
train stops. So we got to set
45:53
something up right here right
now so that we can continue on
45:57
into the sunset, Joe certainly.
But the rest of the family, they
46:01
need to have some kind of grift
going forward. And I say that,
46:05
you know, I mean, it's high
level this is not unique to the
46:08
Biden's I mean, Nancy Pelosi has
her own her own stock. Everyone
46:11
has some kind of scam going on,
it seems. And here's the real
46:16
problem. This is what it all
comes down to
46:19
Unknown: the Democratic Party is
not the happiest place on earth.
46:21
Right now. Mega donors are
withholding funds in the wake of
46:25
President Biden's poor debate
performance. That includes
46:28
Abigail Disney granddaughter of
Disney co founder Roy Disney,
46:31
who said she intends to stop all
contributions to the party until
46:35
President Biden is replaced at
the top of the ticket. She said
46:38
vice president Kamala Harris is
a viable alternative. In a
46:42
statement to CNBC Disney said if
Biden does not step down, the
46:46
Democrats will lose of that I am
absolutely certain the
46:50
consequences of the loss will be
genuinely dire. Disney has made
46:53
six figure donations to
Democrats and progressive causes
46:57
during previous election cycles.
On Wednesday, Netflix founder
47:00
Reed Hastings told The New York
Times Biden needs to step aside.
47:04
The President has also lost
support as much of the media
47:07
exhibit a the latest cover of
The Economist,
47:10
Adam Curry: by the way, I gotta
stop this for a second. We
47:13
probably all saw the cover of
The Economist with the walker
47:16
with the presidential seal on
it. Am I crazy in remembering
47:20
that that was actual no agenda
album art in the past? Not
47:24
John C Dvorak: crazy at all.
47:25
Adam Curry: Do you remember what
Absolutely.
47:26
John C Dvorak: I remember it.
What episode was I think that
47:29
was about as probably five years
ago, five
47:32
Adam Curry: years ago? Well,
47:35
John C Dvorak: it would had to
do with Biden. So it probably
47:38
was four. Maybe it was three
years.
47:40
Adam Curry: I would love if we
could find it because I mean, we
47:43
were way off
47:44
John C Dvorak: the tours
listening he could probably
47:46
figure out how to find it.
47:48
Adam Curry: Okay, so to me, it
was like Oh, wow. I mean, it
47:50
looks so much like they stole
our
47:53
John C Dvorak: cover art looked
that way. Yeah. To me. Because
47:57
we had there was the same thing.
It was a walker in the
47:59
Presidential seal was on front
of in the front of it. Yes, it
48:02
was the exact same art No,
you're not imagining it because
48:05
I remember it to
48:06
Unknown: Mariah fund, President
Gideon Stein is also withholding
48:09
more than $3 million in
donations. Stein told CNBC, Joe
48:14
Biden has been a very effective
president. But unless he steps
48:17
aside, my family and I are
pausing on more than $3 million
48:21
in planned donations to
nonprofits and political
48:24
organizations aligned with the
presidential race. With the
48:27
exception of some down ballot
work, Stein added that nearly
48:31
every major donor he's spoken to
thinks they need to replace
48:34
Biden in order to defeat Trump.
There are others who have
48:37
donated six, seven, even eight
figures during this election
48:41
cycle and previous election
cycles, who agreed to pausing
48:44
donations, Biden said on the
Fourth of July that he isn't
48:48
going anywhere. His campaign had
strong fundraising in June,
48:52
supporters gave $127 million,
including 38 million in the
48:57
three days after the debate. So
48:59
Adam Curry: I was talking with
my buddy Dave, Dave Jones, the
49:02
pod sage, and we're going back
and forth. And we and we start
49:06
to find articles. And this is
something that we have discussed
49:09
that you know more about than I
do, although I have some written
49:12
information. They current the
candidate Biden Harris campaign,
49:17
there's only a few things that
can happen with that money. You
49:20
can't just turn around and give
it to some other campaign. It's
49:24
not typical that donors will get
refunds. You really have to use
49:29
so Kamala, that's why she's
important is because that money
49:33
has her name attached to it
along with Joe's name. They have
49:37
$91 million in cash. Imagine if
you're the bite, it was 351
49:43
John C Dvorak: cash, cash, cash,
this
49:45
Adam Curry: is cash. Okay,
that's cash on hand is to save
49:49
240 million that's out there.
But let's just say there's 91
49:53
million in actual cash. They can
write checks with money. If not,
49:57
if you're behind the scenes and
Jill saying, Look, I represent
50:01
the family. We understand Joe
has to get out we understand,
50:05
but we're not going anywhere
until the Beau Biden Foundation,
50:09
which used to be the Biden
Foundation recently changed the
50:12
Beau Biden Foundation, according
to their form 990 filings has $3
50:17
million in cash and assets in it
now. How about you, because this
50:21
is what they all want. This is
what the Bill and Hillary grift
50:24
was, this is what Obama's grip
was, you want the foundation,
50:28
because with the foundation, you
can get all you can get all
50:31
kinds of money flowing through,
you can fly on jets, you can do
50:34
all kinds of great stuff, most
of it tax free or tax deferred.
50:39
And $50 million of that 91 Reed
Hastings you know, what's the
50:45
other guy? All the reads, you
know, the LinkedIn guy, the
50:50
Netflix, Reid Hoffman Hoffman,
you guys, I want you to kick in
50:53
another 50 million, give us $100
million. And then Joe will say,
50:58
You know what, I think it's time
for me to step back. I have to
51:03
focus on on other things, in
particular, my health, and we're
51:10
going to move to the foundation.
Dr. Joe Biden knows a lot about
51:15
Parkinson's. Turns out I have
Lewy Body Parkinson's disease,
51:21
and wouldn't you know it? Just
two days ago, this happened.
51:25
President
51:25
Unknown: Biden signed
legislation this week aimed at
51:28
preventing and finding a cure
for Parkinson's disease
51:30
championed by New York
Congressman Paul Tonko. The
51:33
national plan to end Parkinson's
act will provide more federal
51:37
funding for Parkinson's research
to prevent and cure the disease.
51:40
The Democrat from the 20th
district says more than a
51:43
million Americans live with the
disease that affects the nervous
51:46
system.
51:47
It's a really good collaborative
that we have seen working really
51:51
well with the Alzheimer's model
with the Alzheimer's plan. And I
51:54
really mimicked that effort for
on behalf of Parkinson's. The
51:59
bipartisan legislation is
modeled after the 2011 National
52:02
Alzheimer's Project Act, which
created a national effort to
52:06
address the Alzheimer's crisis
in all other forms of dementia
52:09
by 2025. Taco says the bill will
help better focus federal
52:13
spending on research estimated
at $52 billion annually. Bingo.
52:19
Adam Curry: Perfect, perfect
exit perfect swan song. He
52:22
deserves it. You got your 100
million in cash. We'll guarantee
52:26
you some of this money from the
bill. You just signed into law.
52:30
Mr. President, you may not
remember it. We just signed into
52:32
law. This $54 billion. We'll
make sure you get some of that.
52:37
You could you're off and you can
52:38
John C Dvorak: be the head of
the foundation.
52:40
Adam Curry: Yes, of course. Of
course. Dr. Dr. John, Dr. Jill,
52:45
Jill, Dr. Joe, I think this is a
very reasonable way to get him
52:52
out to keep the Biden's at bay.
They'll be happy they can go
52:56
off, you know, well, in this
research, did you know that Joe
53:01
and Joe Biden, since they bought
their Delaware home, which I
53:06
think they bought in 1996 for
and this thing is massive. 350
53:13
months three hunt, they bought
it for $350,000 in March of
53:17
1996. We should be so lucky.
They have refinanced it 17 times
53:24
since this is this is how you
launder money. Real estate is
53:28
the favorite way to do it. And
by the way, the banks all these
53:32
Delaware savings companies loan
companies, Chase is in there
53:37
once or twice. This is a great
way to get money to people here.
53:41
That's how they do it. Just
refinance your house, sell your
53:45
house, buy it back, you know, I
bought this clearly. Two to
53:50
390 96 that would have clearly
been a two if not $4 million
53:58
home $350,000. Yeah. And then
you just take out mortgage and
54:03
you know, a secondary mortgages,
home equity
54:06
John C Dvorak: lines, a lot of
ways of milking it. Yeah,
54:09
Adam Curry: I don't I don't know
that mechanism. I'm sure people
54:13
can tell us but I'm pretty sure
real estate is a good way to do
54:16
it. So these people they know
it. They know how to do this
54:19
stuff. A foundation makes it all
legit. And we just prom and you
54:24
know what, and God will keep
some pictures or some video or
54:27
some documents. They got lots of
them. Keep some documents next
54:31
to the Corvette that if someone
ever decides to you know Welch
54:35
on
54:37
John C Dvorak: Yeah, we got
pictures. Yeah. Oh,
54:39
Adam Curry: here it is. It was
episode 1394. Wow. It's even at
54:45
the same angle.
54:48
John C Dvorak: That you're
talking about the picture of the
54:50
walker Walker. Presidential
seal.
54:53
Adam Curry: It's even the same
angle.
54:54
John C Dvorak: What was the
date?
54:56
Adam Curry: That is October
28 2021. How about that? Was
55:03
that in the show? We're
55:03
John C Dvorak: just we're, you
know, we're always two or three
55:05
years ahead of everybody else.
55:07
Adam Curry: We also have Dutch
masters. I mean, when he still
55:10
do, we have lots of Dutch
masters. So I think that is the
55:15
mechanism that they have.
Everything's in place.
55:18
Everything is good to go. Jill
will have some little chit she
55:21
keeps behind just in case
someone besides to Welch on a
55:24
little piece of that $50 billion
that she made Joe sign into law.
55:31
He's he this is an easy way to
go and right on cue bringing the
55:35
kingmaker and
55:37
Unknown: so Robert, how do you
guys set this up for face nation
55:40
this
55:40
Sunday morning on the CBS
television network. So I'm lucky
55:43
enough to be guest anchor this
weekend. And we're going to talk
55:46
to Jim Clyburn. And I think he's
really important because he
55:48
actually has political capital.
A lot of people claim to have
55:51
political capital. He actually
has it he made by being the
55:54
nominee and 20 with his
endorsement. Where's he going to
55:57
stand, parse his words
carefully, and listen to what he
56:00
has to say? What's notable is
that Clapper has been talking
56:03
publicly about maybe backing
vice president Harris
56:06
Adam Curry: notable course the
kingmaker time for him to come
56:09
in. And even though we haven't
really prayed paid much
56:14
attention to it. Kamala has been
out there going for the only
56:19
constituency that she really
has, which is the sadly psyops
56:24
black American women who somehow
those women are leave. Kamala is
56:29
black. Oh, yeah. Well, the
essence awards.
56:33
Unknown: We you we have
extraordinary power. And we can
56:39
never let anybody take our power
from us. Never let anybody take
56:43
our power from us. And never be
shy about our power. We must
56:51
encourage each other ambition,
ambition is a good thing. It is
56:57
good to know one's power and
then to go for what you want,
57:01
knowing you can achieve it.
57:04
Adam Curry: Hmm, yes. Good to
know now. Do you remember? We
57:12
played the clip of Taraji with
with the Vice President at the
57:16
BT awards that horrible back and
forth, where she's in the in the
57:21
dressing room? And she's like,
she's code switching to all
57:25
black talk? Well, yes. Let me
just play a little bit of again,
57:28
because I got many notes from
people about two things we
57:32
should have. Couldn't really
have known but we should I
57:35
should have known at least one
of them. Listen to this one. But
57:37
what's on your mind?
57:38
Unknown: Oh, madam VP here is
I'm worried about the election.
57:43
women's reproductive rights are
on the line. Our Supreme Court
57:47
is on the line, our basic
freedoms are being tested. Madam
57:50
VP, I know you've been traveling
across the country. What are you
57:54
hearing there? Girl? I'm
57:55
out here in the streets. And let
me tell you, you're right.
57:58
terace. There is so much at
stake in this moment. The
58:01
majority of us believe in
freedom and equality. But these
58:06
extremist, as they say they're
not like
58:09
Adam Curry: us. Now a lot of
people picked up on this. I of
58:12
course picked up on the code
switch. What I didn't realize is
58:16
the Kendrick Lamar Drake beef,
which we discussed briefly, is
58:23
Kendrick Lamar saying, hey,
Drake, he not like us. And in
58:26
fact, he had the song Not like
us, because Drake is half black.
58:33
He is in fact Canadian. He's
Jewish. And so that was
58:37
basically Kendrick Lamar, saying
you look this guy, he's getting
58:41
paid, he's making bank but he
not like us. He's not one of us.
58:44
He's an imposter. So Kamala,
with it's like with, I think the
58:49
most tone deaf thing ever, is to
say, Oh, they're not like us
58:54
where she is not even one like
us not even like us at all. And
58:59
she grew up in Canada of all
places. Very bizarre that she
59:03
would that she wouldn't invoke
that. But there was something
59:06
else that she doesn't know what
she's doing. There was something
59:08
else that one of our producers
caught which isn't this next
59:10
bit. They
59:11
Unknown: not there's a full on
attack on our fundamental
59:14
freedoms, the freedom to vote.
Yep. The freedom to love who you
59:19
love the freedom to be safe from
gun violence, the freedom for a
59:22
woman to make decisions about
her own body not having her
59:25
government tell her what to do.
They
59:27
are here trying to take away
pride, Plan B and Planned
59:31
Parenthood but protecting
pistols. If you ask me the
59:36
question the wrong V's
59:37
Adam Curry: so pushing the PS is
a slang I was not aware of
59:42
pushing the PS is slang for
pushing pounds, pounds of drugs.
59:48
So they out here pushing the
wrong peas. What kind of peas
59:52
were you talking about Taraji? I
mean, this was this was deep,
59:57
very deep and I wonder if that
worked. doll for sure it worked
1:00:02
on Taraji because she then went
on the Beatty awards and stopped
1:00:07
her introduction of the next
Akon act on stage and threw this
1:00:12
out. I'm
1:00:13
Unknown: telling y'all you
better show up and so out with
1:00:17
them ballads. I mean, serious
now. No, I look good.
1:00:21
Adam Curry: Not with your votes,
by the way with them ballots.
1:00:23
What is that?
1:00:24
John C Dvorak: What is the good
one? Tim Ballard. A woman who
1:00:28
was busted? Yeah,
1:00:30
Unknown: here he is. Now. No, I
look good. But it's a serious
1:00:33
time. I need y'all to listen.
Show up and show out for when
1:00:37
it's time to vote. Because it's
not just about the presidential
1:00:40
election. You guys was
conference to play chess, not
1:00:42
checkers. It's about making
decisions that will affect us as
1:00:46
human beings, our careers, our
next generations to come. Did
1:00:53
you know that it is now a crime
to be homeless?
1:00:58
Adam Curry: That's not exactly
right. But okay.
1:01:02
Unknown: Pay attention is not a
secret. Look it up. They are
1:01:06
attacking our most vulnerable
citizens.
1:01:08
Adam Curry: I think when you say
look it up. I think that means
1:01:11
don't look it up. Just take my
word for
1:01:13
Unknown: the project. 2025 plan
is not a game. They are trying
1:01:22
to bring the draft back.
1:01:27
Adam Curry: Yeah, black people.
That's how America works. That's
1:01:30
right. We all you black. Yeah,
you're drafted, please.
1:01:37
Unknown: I'm not trying to scare
us. I'm just trying to inform
1:01:40
us. We got three Supreme Court
seats up you guys we need those
1:01:45
seats. We have no protection.
Okay, I got it out my sister.
1:01:56
Our next a former.
1:02:00
Adam Curry: So they're pushing
real hard is Kamala for the
1:02:03
black women of America. And
which, by the way, there's only
1:02:07
one guy who is now just for some
odd reason, just holding on
1:02:12
tight. Here's Vivec.
1:02:14
Unknown: And that leads me to my
view, at least of who I think
1:02:18
it's most likely to be, which
is, I made no secret of this.
1:02:21
I've been saying this since last
year when I said Biden wasn't
1:02:24
gonna be the nominee. I think if
you really believe that sort of
1:02:26
collective incentives, you got
to believe there's reasonable
1:02:28
likelihood that's actually going
to end up being Michelle Obama,
1:02:31
somebody who is widely loved by
many independents who don't
1:02:35
follow politics, particularly
closely. Somebody who has
1:02:38
already, in some sense been
tested. People, I think
1:02:41
correctly anticipate that it
would be Barack Obama pulling
1:02:44
the strings behind the scene,
but not in a negative way. I
1:02:46
think they would be very
comfortable with that for many
1:02:48
Democrats, and somebody who
would rise above so called the
1:02:52
fray of the otherwise conflict
of ambitious next generation
1:02:55
governors, or senators who would
otherwise be vying for that
1:02:59
position. Yeah,
1:03:00
Adam Curry: he said he's a die
hard. I'll give him that. Yeah,
1:03:04
John C Dvorak: he's worse than
you. Big Mike. given up on this
1:03:08
thing.
1:03:09
Adam Curry: I did Ford Big Mike
2020 four.com. To a guy.
1:03:13
John C Dvorak: Well, it's
because you're a Joker. Joker,
1:03:16
Adam Curry: I'm a joker that's
about
1:03:19
John C Dvorak: Joker's ahead.
admires will play this one thing
1:03:21
to get it out of the way, which
is a Biden clip is the only clip
1:03:25
on the list that says Biden, and
this was you know, I was going
1:03:29
to try to slip it in as well.
This is part of the real. This
1:03:34
was part of the of the
Stephanopoulos interview that
1:03:39
was actually cut out of the
interview. Yeah, sure.
1:03:42
Unknown: After the debate, we
ran a poll. And every single
1:03:45
person we polled thinks that
you're a retard we polled
1:03:48
African Americans. They all say
you're a retard. Hispanic
1:03:51
Americans also think that you're
retarded. They call you l
1:03:55
ritardo. Even uphold actual
retarded people, even they say
1:04:00
you sound absolutely retarded.
You see where this is going, Mr.
1:04:03
President?
1:04:05
Adam Curry: Well, I just had a
bad night. That's good. You
1:04:12
know, as funny as there was a
obviously it was an article in I
1:04:15
think it was the hill. Let me
see. I have it here. Yes. Was
1:04:23
they'll know HuffPost. Opinion.
It's time for the Biden campaign
1:04:27
to embrace AI.
1:04:30
John C Dvorak: Yeah. Yes, I saw
this. Now. I will admit, I
1:04:34
didn't read it because I just
look at the beginning. This is
1:04:38
whatever this is. I don't have
time for this. Did you read it?
1:04:41
Yes. What did it tell you?
Biden's
1:04:44
Adam Curry: campaign could
instead set the standard norms
1:04:47
for what should be reasonable
use of AI tools in the campaign
1:04:50
arena. For example, disclaimers
could be included on AI
1:04:54
generated content, because what
they're saying is they should do
1:04:58
aesthetic enhancements. To the
president speech, AI generated
1:05:02
content can be tailored to
highlight the present President
1:05:05
Biden's accomplishments. Lisa
1:05:06
John C Dvorak: Jo was just like
a satire.
1:05:08
Adam Curry: I don't think so.
Clearly is like it already.
1:05:11
Well, let me let me see. Oh,
there was a Kiven. Schroth is a
1:05:17
Guest writer.
1:05:20
John C Dvorak: There's a name
that Mitch makes sense if you
1:05:23
reorganize the letters. Yeah,
yeah, well sound right. It
1:05:27
sounds like a satire.
1:05:29
Adam Curry: Well, it didn't.
1:05:30
John C Dvorak: I didn't think of
it as a satire when I saw
1:05:32
Adam Curry: it. I didn't I still
don't see it as satire.
1:05:35
John C Dvorak: But well, what
you just said is very satirical.
1:05:38
So well,
1:05:39
Adam Curry: in our mind.
Yesterday. Remember, some people
1:05:42
are insane.
1:05:44
John C Dvorak: Yes, I realized
that some people are insane, but
1:05:47
we, but they don't care and they
don't catch satire, but our job
1:05:52
is to catch it.
1:05:53
Adam Curry: Well, Kate Fang
jumped in and tried to make
1:05:57
President Trump look like that
retard as as we just heard that
1:06:01
AI clip from Stephanopoulos
1:06:04
Unknown: for the last week the
media has been portraying
1:06:06
Democrats in crisis mode trying
to figure out a path to victory
1:06:10
after the first presidential
debate. But with all the
1:06:12
attention that has been given to
Joe Biden very little scrutiny
1:06:16
has been given to the real
issues that should have been
1:06:19
discussed at the podium and even
less attention has been paid to
1:06:23
Donald Trump's firehose of lies
and promises to destroy. For
1:06:27
example, Donald Trump has
privately promised donors he'll
1:06:31
ensure a national 16 week
abortion ban and publicly he's
1:06:35
promised to begin the largest
domestic deportation operation
1:06:39
in American history, reinstate
his Muslim travel ban and expand
1:06:44
it to include Gaza and refugees
use the military to address
1:06:47
domestic crime. Eliminate the
Department of Education,
1:06:50
rollback dozens of Biden's
climate and gun control measures
1:06:54
and act of federal law stating
that there are only two genders
1:06:57
repeal the Affordable Care Act
charter 10 New Freedom cities
1:07:01
that includes flying cars, yes
flying cars. And of course
1:07:05
finally he promises to finish
building that wall freedom
1:07:09
Adam Curry: flying cars flying
cars
1:07:13
John C Dvorak: I mean count me
in on all those things. I'm
1:07:15
Adam Curry: I'm good with that.
I want to live in his freedom
1:07:18
city with flying cars that'll do
it for me. Couple other
1:07:23
elections a couple other
elections around the world a
1:07:26
John C Dvorak: while before you
wait before you go there. I do
1:07:28
at this get some other stuff out
of the way. I do have a couple
1:07:30
more clips. Oh, I'm sorry. I
thought you were on the topic.
1:07:32
That's okay. We're done. So So I
and these there's too many of
1:07:36
these concerns. They're pretty
short. This one this long. It's
1:07:39
the payoff clip. But this is so
they had they brought this woman
1:07:43
out you we talked about black
women and their devotion to
1:07:46
Biden in the in the in the
Democrats. And so they had to
1:07:51
decide a Brooks and shield and
Brooks and Cape are K parts took
1:07:54
off? For the
1:07:56
Adam Curry: Hampshire law for
the Hamptons. For the Hamptons,
1:07:59
the Hamptons choir, some
1:08:01
John C Dvorak: yarn. I'm not
sure I mean clog. But he's I
1:08:05
think he's also upset about the
Biden fail. Because he's a big,
1:08:09
huge Biden, he was one of those
guys, that's talking about
1:08:12
Biden's gonna wipe out Trump.
1:08:15
Adam Curry: Oh, yes to hide.
1:08:18
John C Dvorak: So we have this
woman, her name, she's got a
1:08:21
hyphenated last name store
something. And she's a columnist
1:08:26
for The Boston Globe and
activist, columnist. Reporter,
1:08:31
which is the latest thing, and I
will be one of these shows I'll
1:08:35
comment on in more depth. But
there's all these journalists
1:08:39
that are pushing the idea that
we shouldn't be doing balanced
1:08:42
reporting. It's a bad idea.
1:08:44
Adam Curry: Oh, no, we can't do
that. We have to be like,
1:08:47
John C Dvorak: you have to take
Hitler side on the argument.
1:08:50
What's wrong with you? Where
were you? So but she's one of
1:08:54
them. And I just wait if we if
we can tolerate these clips.
1:08:58
Sure. Play Brooks and store one.
And this is this is the setup.
1:09:03
At
1:09:03
Unknown: a campaign event in
Wisconsin this afternoon.
1:09:06
President Joe Biden vowed to
stay in the race for the White
1:09:09
House. Well, guess
1:09:10
what? They're trying to push me
out on the race. Let me say this
1:09:13
queries I can. I'm staying in
the race.
1:09:20
Donald Trump for analysis on the
tenuous weak in the Democratic
1:09:24
Party, we turn to Brooks and
Atkins store that is New York
1:09:28
Times columnist David Brooks and
Boston Globe columnist Kimberly
1:09:32
Atkins storage on NK part is
away. Great to see you. John.
1:09:35
Adam Curry: K part is hide in
quad hiding in the Hamptons.
1:09:39
Yes.
1:09:40
John C Dvorak: So we start off
and the two of them Borthwick
1:09:43
typical recursive of PBS is that
the news our is that nobody's in
1:09:48
disagreement. They're all
Democrats are all in lockstep in
1:09:52
their opinions, which gives the
public absolutely no benefit
1:09:55
whatsoever, but they keep doing
1:09:57
Adam Curry: about this for a
month. So I've been I've been
1:10:00
tracking like the real diehard
New York Times readers, people
1:10:05
who grew up with the New York
Times, you know, who, who have
1:10:09
always trusted the media. And
two prime examples would be Dave
1:10:13
Weiner, my my partner in
creating podcasting, and
1:10:17
Cheerilee and Jeff Jarvis. And,
and they are on. Well, I only
1:10:24
follow them on mastodon. They're
I think they're everywhere
1:10:27
Twitter and Facebook and
threads. And
1:10:30
John C Dvorak: they their their
real opinions are on mastodon.
1:10:34
Now I think a day
1:10:35
Adam Curry: I think they want to
poke cross posts everything but
1:10:38
they are incensed by the media.
They are now I mean, they're
1:10:41
talking about we need to set up
our own media, like Hello.
1:10:45
Hello, podcasting. You know, we
need we need to, you know, we
1:10:49
can't trust the New York Times.
We can't trust the media, we
1:10:51
can't trust anybody. It's all
broken. And this to me is a good
1:10:55
thing. I love that now, people
who are obviously are clearly
1:11:00
left leaning or Democrat, just
to name it, that they finally
1:11:07
see that the media does not care
about them. It was great when
1:11:11
they were on their side, but now
they're not. And yes, the New
1:11:13
York Times with their editorial
board, they are they're meddling
1:11:19
and things that have little to
do with journalism. Hello,
1:11:21
welcome to the party. We all
agree on something.
1:11:27
John C Dvorak: Yes, I've noticed
this too, is because the New
1:11:30
York Times is not pushing their
agenda, the agenda that there's
1:11:34
the whatever you want whoever's
behind the guy, they're not
1:11:38
pushing what these guys want,
which is just Democrat,
1:11:40
Democrat, Democrat, one party
system, run by Democrats, and I
1:11:46
think they're
1:11:46
Adam Curry: realizing that we
actually have a one party system
1:11:49
and has nothing to do with
politics. It's the people behind
1:11:52
the scenes.
1:11:56
John C Dvorak: I don't think
they're that self aware. But
1:11:58
okay. I think it's just a pure
Democrat. I want you to promote
1:12:04
Why don't you pushing Biden more
is a certain weird blindness to
1:12:09
those guys. Yes, Brooks and
start start a store to
1:12:14
Unknown: let's just take stock
of where we are right now. We
1:12:17
have now seen three House
Democrats publicly call for the
1:12:20
president to step aside. The
Washington Post reported late
1:12:23
today, Democratic Senator Mark
Warner is attempting to pull
1:12:26
together Democratic senators
asking him to leave the race.
1:12:30
And we're starting to see some
major democratic donors back
1:12:32
away. Among them, Abigail Disney
of the Disney family. She said
1:12:36
in a statement yesterday, she's
stopping all democratic
1:12:38
contributions until Biden is
replaced and she said this,
1:12:42
quote, this is realism, not
disrespect. Biden is a good man.
1:12:45
He served his country admirably.
But the stakes are far too high.
1:12:49
Can Can the president change the
narrative? Or is this heading
1:12:53
one direction?
1:12:54
Look, the President has already
done what Democrats were waiting
1:12:58
for. They needed him to make the
decision as to whether he would
1:13:02
be the nominee or not. We're
past the primaries, voters have
1:13:06
already had their say, it would
have to be the nominee to make
1:13:09
that decision. And it seems that
he has. So now Democrats really
1:13:13
don't have a choice Mark Warner
donors, other people don't pick
1:13:17
the Democratic nominee for
president. The people in the
1:13:20
process do and they've already
done that. So I think at this
1:13:23
point, I agree that this is a
crucial moment in time and that
1:13:28
the threat of democracy that
looms with a potential return to
1:13:32
the White House of Donald Trump
is something that cannot be
1:13:35
ignored. I think the more
Democrats continue to fight and
1:13:39
quibble and play this game about
replacing the the President when
1:13:44
there's no not even an heir
apparent, the weaker they are.
1:13:47
We haven't heard anything from
Donald Trump this week. And
1:13:50
that's probably the most
discipline he's campaign ever
1:13:52
because he realizes that
Democrats are doing the work for
1:13:55
him.
1:13:56
Adam Curry: She hasn't heard
about any heir apparent, really.
1:14:00
John C Dvorak: She's not reading
on anything. She's so out of
1:14:02
touch. She is but she is
representative. As we've been
1:14:07
noticing of these black females
that are just lockstep in
1:14:13
Biden's camp Democrats. And it's
good to know. I mean, I know Moe
1:14:17
has all these theses about what
it's like a setup of some sort.
1:14:22
Yeah. And, yeah,
1:14:24
Adam Curry: this is the next
one. When Trump wins, they'll
1:14:27
all be out of a job and out of
the public eye.
1:14:30
John C Dvorak: We'll see. So we
continue to this, unfortunately,
1:14:34
I think this is a little slow
moving until we get to this clip
1:14:37
for which is the setup of this
clip three coming up, David
1:14:40
Unknown: at this critical
moment, as Kim says, how can the
1:14:43
President calm those concerns
that are clearly still out
1:14:46
there? Well, you
1:14:47
could take a cognitive test,
which is what I think you should
1:14:49
do over the weekend. I'm worried
about they're sort of worried
1:14:53
about now, but really, they're
worried about 2027 what Joe
1:14:56
Biden is gonna be like in 2027
If he's still president, and So
1:15:00
he should take a test and say,
and he's he's taken them in the
1:15:03
past. And he said, I took this
cognitive test. That's doctors,
1:15:07
it's all public. Here it is.
rest my case. And so he could do
1:15:10
that. I think, frankly, he
should do that. Because right
1:15:13
now there's like clouds of
witnesses. Like it all these
1:15:16
anonymous stories floating
around there. There's like a lot
1:15:19
of people saying, oh, Biden's
been like this for weeks or
1:15:22
months, then there's people
anonymous stories in White House
1:15:24
staff, they're all miserable.
Then there's anonymous stories
1:15:27
that the people in Democrats in
Congress are really angry at the
1:15:30
Democrats who are governors, who
were supporting him and the
1:15:33
Democrats in Congress did not
want to run with Joe Biden the
1:15:35
top of their ticket. And so it's
all this anonymous floating. And
1:15:39
it's very hard to get a sense of
where the vibe of the party is.
1:15:43
I do think what's been clear in
my reading of the floating is
1:15:47
that people have been more
reconciled to the idea that
1:15:50
Kamala Harris would be the
alternative, that moving beyond
1:15:53
her it's just not a nonstarter.
There's some doubt about whether
1:15:56
the money can flow to any
candidate. I think it probably
1:15:59
can. But you see people getting
more comfortable with the idea
1:16:02
of Kamala Harris. So I don't
think this is going to be over
1:16:04
though. Biden statement today
was pretty definitive, but the
1:16:07
party is, you know, 72% of
Americans don't think he's
1:16:10
qualified to be president or to
run again for President. That's
1:16:12
that's just a reality. Boy,
1:16:14
Adam Curry: even Brooks like,
oh, it's anonymous, just all
1:16:16
these anonymous people. I guess
no one talks to Brooks.
1:16:22
John C Dvorak: Guy, store. So
now this is the set. Now we have
1:16:27
Brooks in store and the woman
this woman who is the subject,
1:16:30
she's the co host of the show
they did. She's the only one
1:16:33
working the week are working the
holiday and she is because
1:16:37
Adam Curry: she has no worries.
No one wants her at the garden
1:16:39
party.
1:16:41
John C Dvorak: She race the
hostess, the hostess, who's
1:16:44
South Asian looking, she hates
Trump store hates Trump and
1:16:50
Brooks reluctantly, you know,
doesn't like Trump either. This
1:16:54
is like this is this the News
Hour has deteriorated to just a
1:16:57
bunch of Trump haters. And it's
become kind of obvious after a
1:17:01
while. But here's this thing I
consider to be the setup clip.
1:17:05
Unknown: I think that this is as
you're describing it, these
1:17:08
circles, these clouds. These are
largely happening inside the
1:17:12
beltway. Okay. And again, inside
the beltway isn't where the
1:17:15
President will be showing will
be campaigning. That's
1:17:18
not the way or I should point
out there are voter concerns
1:17:20
about his age
1:17:21
or our voters concerns too. But
I have by and large, the
1:17:26
majority of the people that I
have heard from from coast to
1:17:29
coast, want to focus on beating
Donald Trump. They have just as
1:17:34
much agita about democratic
infighting and handmaking, as
1:17:38
they do about a couple of
sentences that Joe Biden flubbed
1:17:43
during the debate. They see this
inching closer and closer, we're
1:17:46
coming up on both conventions,
the time to make a decision is
1:17:51
over. And I think if Democrats
pull together and show again,
1:17:55
half of the fight that
Republicans have, who have
1:17:58
always stood behind Donald
Trump, and they actually have a
1:18:01
candidate with a good record who
believes in fighting for
1:18:03
democracy, the better off the
Democrats will be yes, even if
1:18:07
Kamala Harris is the candidate
and it's, I think it's a little
1:18:11
insulting to her that it's only
It's only taken till now for
1:18:13
them to realize that she is the
Vice President of the United
1:18:16
States. Maybe but I think that
decision has already has to have
1:18:20
been made. And Joe Biden has
made it he's staying in.
1:18:26
John C Dvorak: Yeah, this is a
classic woman. She said, he made
1:18:29
a couple of flubs that notice
that he's staring off into space
1:18:32
and all the rest of it. Or is
there a whole segment of the
1:18:36
population that is blind? to
what's going on with this guy?
1:18:41
They
1:18:42
Adam Curry: just forgot to cc
her on the email. They didn't
1:18:47
know that
1:18:47
John C Dvorak: she actually
watched the debate and see this
1:18:49
guy trying to she still know
1:18:51
Adam Curry: this. Please, John.
I mean, I know this is probably
1:18:54
rhetorical what you're doing but
she you said it to me and she
1:18:57
just didn't get read in she
doesn't know she hasn't been
1:19:00
told. It shouldn't be given the
talking points. She's still on
1:19:03
the old plan.
1:19:06
John C Dvorak: She got to Hey,
Hey, lady, you've got the old
1:19:09
code book. No
1:19:10
Adam Curry: wonder no wonder
what's wrong what they didn't
1:19:13
know. They didn't know K part
probably has it but he's like,
1:19:16
Screw it. I'm out. I'm going to
the clog
1:19:20
John C Dvorak: going to the
beach. Yeah. Okay, so here we go
1:19:23
with the I call this the wild
clip because there's a while
1:19:26
kind of a thing going on here.
1:19:28
Unknown: Even what about the
stakes here about Kim mentioned
1:19:30
Abigail Disney mentioned them in
her statement as well. Biden
1:19:33
backers have told me Look,
they're worried that the focus
1:19:35
on this conversation takes the
focus off of Trump who is an
1:19:39
anti Democratic candidate with
authoritarian tendencies, who is
1:19:42
now new ones powered by that
Supreme Court immunity ruling
1:19:46
the head of the Heritage
Foundation we should point out
1:19:48
that's running this project 2025
policy planning for a potential
1:19:52
second Trump term said this this
week. He said the country is in
1:19:55
what he called the Second
American Revolution. And it
1:19:58
could be quote, blood Listen, if
the left allows it to be there's
1:20:02
kind of this alarming language
around a potential Trump
1:20:05
presidency. Are we losing sight
of the stakes here? Ah,
1:20:08
Adam Curry: this is the 2020
project 2025. I put it in the
1:20:12
show notes again for everybody
to see it's 900 pages. I hear I
1:20:16
doubt this lady read it. I
reread it for what what? I mean,
1:20:19
imagine putting in five points
in the chat GPT and saying write
1:20:25
900 pages. That's exactly what
1:20:27
John C Dvorak: that's exactly
what it is. It's so old that you
1:20:29
know what it might actually have
been that way. It sure looks
1:20:33
Adam Curry: like it's so old
that it still speaks of getting
1:20:36
rid of Roe v. Wade. That's how
old this this document is. And,
1:20:41
you know, the way it's portrayed
is ah, oh, oh, clutch my pearls.
1:20:45
Trump wants to get rid of the
Department of Education. What
1:20:48
will we do with our children?
Yeah. The department
1:20:51
John C Dvorak: of education we
should notice a route recently
1:20:54
created.
1:20:55
Adam Curry: It's not that's not
a radical position from the
1:20:57
right at all. But
1:20:59
John C Dvorak: it's been
discussed by your ex Governor
1:21:03
there in Texas Perry used to
bench and when he ran for
1:21:06
president he was the only one to
do is get rid of the Department
1:21:08
of Education.
1:21:09
Adam Curry: So the narrative
they're trying to create here. I
1:21:11
in fact, I have the headline
from salon project 2025 was
1:21:15
supposed to boost Donald Trump's
campaign, but now it's
1:21:18
backfiring instead. But no one
read this.
1:21:21
John C Dvorak: I don't. You
know, to be honest about it.
1:21:23
Maybe I've just missed it. I
don't remember Trump even
1:21:26
mentioning project 2025
speeches. I listened to his hour
1:21:31
and a half speeches and he never
mentions it, you know, guy who
1:21:34
mentions it. Now before I played
this.
1:21:37
Adam Curry: Let me just say one
thing. I think this came to the
1:21:40
foreground when Tucker of all
people did his speech at the
1:21:44
Heritage Foundation. I think
that's when project 2025 started
1:21:48
to surface.
1:21:49
John C Dvorak: I don't disagree
and I'll tell you why. All
1:21:52
right.
1:21:53
Adam Curry: Ban in WoW, ban on
Yeah. Well, okay. Ban has
1:21:58
John C Dvorak: been pushing and
I who do have to ban and clips
1:22:00
I'll get I'll play him after
this last clip. Yeah, good
1:22:02
Adam Curry: point. Good point.
1:22:04
John C Dvorak: John. I'm sorry.
John Karl interviewed Bannon and
1:22:07
Ben. All Bannon does is talking
about Project 2020.
1:22:11
Adam Curry: Okay, all right. I
got you. I'm with you.
1:22:13
John C Dvorak: I'm we're gonna
hit now we have to pay off this.
1:22:16
These maniacs is hating on
Trump, and it's all about just
1:22:20
don't get him in because he's
gonna He's gonna ruin democracy.
1:22:23
And he's going to do I don't
know what they're even
1:22:26
imagining? Are we
1:22:27
Unknown: losing sight of the
stakes here?
1:22:28
Yeah, I think so. I mean, before
he went to prison, I went over
1:22:31
to see Steve Bannon, and
interviewed him and I was scared
1:22:35
out of my mind, like, I just
asked him what's gonna happen if
1:22:38
you guys win, it'll be nothing
like 2017 2017. We didn't have
1:22:42
staff, we had nothing. But now
we've got people who have been
1:22:45
vetted, we've got people who are
trained. And we're just gonna go
1:22:47
after the deep state, it looks
like a dismantling of the civil
1:22:50
service, basically. And that's
just the beginning. So I do
1:22:53
think people are losing some
focus on that. And, you know,
1:22:57
I've been a broken record on
this for whatever, seven years.
1:23:00
But it is also true that every
American pretty much has seen an
1:23:05
elderly relative in decline. And
they sort of know what that
1:23:08
looks like. And if I could just
do one, one bit of just random
1:23:13
polling, as I mentioned, 72% of
Americans don't think he should
1:23:16
run again. If you look at the
Wall Street Journal, the New
1:23:20
York Times poll, Trump is up by
six, in today's approval
1:23:23
numbers, Biden is at a record
low. Trump is winning the swing
1:23:27
states by more than before. So
there's real cause for concern.
1:23:32
And if your main goal is to get
Donald Trump out, not reelected,
1:23:37
to me, it's a very open question
of what the best route. That for
1:23:40
that is. And I'm not saying I'm
not one of these people who says
1:23:42
Joe Biden should sit down, I'll
wait. But I do think it's an
1:23:46
open question. I
1:23:47
want to get back to this issue
of how we're talking about
1:23:49
President Trump as well here,
which is to say, there seems to
1:23:52
be sort of an asymmetry of
expectations as well in terms of
1:23:55
Trump's performance in the
debate, which was filled with
1:23:58
misleading statements and lies
my my, my eyes, my eyes, my
1:24:02
eyes. He's only three years
younger than President Biden
1:24:05
often veers off script when he's
not on prompter is Do you see
1:24:09
that asymmetry? Is that
affecting the conversation right
1:24:11
now? Kim?
1:24:11
I want 100% See that asymmetry?
Look, we can talk about, you
1:24:16
know, mental cognitive tests
that people might want the
1:24:19
President to take but we already
know that Donald Trump has
1:24:22
failed the moral test he's
failed the democracy test he's
1:24:25
failed the insurrection test.
1:24:28
Adam Curry: If I like firehose
of lies I think that's that's
1:24:31
that's that's a good one fire
hose of laughs
1:24:36
Unknown: Barrows of life arrows
of lies so
1:24:39
John C Dvorak: so so John Carl
before abandoned went to jail
1:24:43
Unknown: Banyan
1:24:45
John C Dvorak: Yeah, Banyan
before Banyan went to jail, John
1:24:48
Carl, I guess Brooks did to
interview it. He might you know,
1:24:53
I don't know why this guy's got
some guys see. I don't know why
1:24:56
because he cares. Perfect
1:24:58
Adam Curry: father. I mean, it's
Forex. Exactly, exactly the
1:25:01
outcome they have. Drive at 2025
His own hands, man, it's
1:25:05
unhinged. Yeah,
1:25:07
John C Dvorak: that's gotta be
it. I mean, otherwise, it's
1:25:09
like, who cares? But okay. So
let's I just have two clips from
1:25:14
this interview with John cart
Jonathan Karl, the Council on
1:25:18
Foreign Relations guy who was
the head of the Press
1:25:21
Association in DC, the White
House press correspondence. And
1:25:26
here he is bitching about our
George taken on Bannon. If
1:25:30
Unknown: Trump wins, when what
does it look like? How is this
1:25:34
different from the last?
President Trump hasn't signed
1:25:37
off on this. But look, here's
what's going to happen, I
1:25:39
believe, three verticals, I
believe, first vertical seal the
1:25:42
border in the mass deportations.
And the second vertical is about
1:25:45
the finances, you know, Trump's
going to have to deal with a
1:25:48
budget of $2 trillion of
deficits, he's going to have to
1:25:51
look at the getting the tax cuts
back. And the third is to stop
1:25:55
these endless forever wars in
Ukraine in Israel and around the
1:25:59
South China Sea and Taiwan.
That's the program of what he's
1:26:02
going to drive to say we have to
accomplish this. So I think a
1:26:05
whole big part of Project 2025
is actually going into the
1:26:09
apparatus, the the post
constitutional Leviathan, and
1:26:13
start to take apart the
administrative administrative
1:26:16
state brick by brick. No, I
understand that. And I have 900
1:26:19
pages right here of just what
this is just Project 2025. Yeah,
1:26:23
this is just this is just the
Kevin or this is just heritage.
1:26:26
Adam Curry: You know, this is a
grift at this point, the Banyan
1:26:29
had nothing to do with writing
this. His name is not on this.
1:26:32
Everyone else. Everyone's name
is on this thing. The first 30
1:26:35
pages is who did it. He's not in
there is no Banyon credit for
1:26:40
this thing. This he's kind of
Griffey here. Like, Oh, yeah.
1:26:45
No, I
1:26:45
John C Dvorak: think he's been
Griffey all along. Okay.
1:26:48
Adam Curry: I mean, in the
beginning, he definitely helped
1:26:50
Trump in 2015 2016. But, you
know, everything
1:26:55
John C Dvorak: is all about him,
though. It's always him. When
1:26:58
the narcissist Carl calls him
out in the second clip here, I
1:27:01
think, rightfully, and Banyon
just got lots of slide and he
1:27:06
goes on and on. You know, over
time I become, I come to dislike
1:27:13
this guy.
1:27:18
Unknown: When I interviewed
abandoned back in 2018, he
1:27:20
predicted an astounding victory
for Republicans saying they
1:27:24
would run the tables in the
house. Instead, Democrats picked
1:27:27
up 40 seats. And in 2022, he
predicted a massive blowout for
1:27:32
Republicans. Instead, they lost
most of the competitive races
1:27:37
across the country. The 2022 did
not come out anywhere near what
1:27:42
we thought I mean, all your guys
lost you, you know, people like
1:27:45
Kerry Lake and masters. I say
Mastriano. I mean, these, let me
1:27:50
get let me make sure ABC News
understands this. Okay, this is
1:27:53
a populist, nationalist
revolution. It's a process.
1:27:57
We're not going to win every
election. So you may not lose
1:28:00
sight. So you may not win in
November. I happen to think if
1:28:04
you look at the numbers today,
you particularly if you look,
1:28:07
hang on, hang on, not just that
you look at the fiasco, we have
1:28:10
to do two things, just real
briefly. We have two tracks that
1:28:13
have to go down, right. One is
for the country. Yeah, this
1:28:16
national security crisis we have
with the commander in chief
1:28:19
that's clearly not up to the job
and a constitutional crisis or
1:28:23
come with the 25th amendment for
that that is something that has
1:28:25
to go down this track. They also
have a political situation over
1:28:29
there, they're going to try to
change by knots. And are you
1:28:31
worried that Democrats will
replace Biden with somebody who
1:28:34
will be harder to beat? I was
not a fan of doing this debate
1:28:38
at this time? Because I said
you're given a free option. i
1:28:41
President Trump should debate
who the Democratic Party nominee
1:28:43
is not a guy named Joe. But if
it's Biden do it. If it's
1:28:46
Gretchen Whitmer, do it if it's
Gavin Newsom, Michelle Obama,
1:28:49
you pick it, the Democrats
should pick it. That's their
1:28:51
choice. But President Trump, I
believe my belief is instead of
1:28:55
the show that he did it for the
country to show because he took
1:28:58
all the CNN rules, which I
thought were crazy, took the
1:29:00
cut, Mike, he took the no
audience and rules that may have
1:29:03
helped him they took the took
the two breaks, let's say this,
1:29:05
he performed magnificently.
1:29:07
Adam Curry: Here's your video.
By the way, the things that
1:29:11
being mentioned the first clip
about Project 2025, who can be
1:29:14
against that? Who can be against
fixing the budget? Who can be
1:29:17
against lower taxes? Who can be
against no wars? And who can be
1:29:22
against I don't think a single
American is against the
1:29:24
dismantling of the
administrative state, except for
1:29:27
the What is it 7 million people
who are on the payroll in the
1:29:30
administrative states? I'm sure
they are beside themselves,
1:29:34
because that was it. Schedule F
for whatever they put in place
1:29:38
that was snuck through where you
can now easily fire people in
1:29:42
the administrative state.
They're
1:29:43
John C Dvorak: trying to make it
so it's easy, easier. You'd
1:29:45
always fire people. I worked in
the administrative state and
1:29:49
people got fired all the time.
1:29:51
Adam Curry: Did you ever get
fired? No. You played.
1:29:56
John C Dvorak: You play. Most
people quit. Because it's it's
1:29:59
the to military working in the
desert, just my observation and
1:30:03
there and observations are old
now, but I stay stick with you
1:30:07
is that it's depressing to work
in the administrative state.
1:30:11
Yeah. I mean, it was great for
me because I was working during
1:30:16
the downturn in the economy,
then I didn't realize it because
1:30:19
I did have no more knowledge now
than I did then. And I was
1:30:23
living it up basically, in a
situation where everybody else
1:30:27
was, you know, starving to
death. But there's, it's a soul
1:30:32
crushing job to work for the
government. You working with
1:30:38
people who have a lot of there's
a lot of it's make work, there's
1:30:42
people that really aren't doing
anything, and they sit around
1:30:45
conniving. It's very difficult
and soul crushing to work in a
1:30:52
minute. Nobody likes. Anyone who
says they like working in the
1:30:55
administrators state is lying to
themselves. It's much better to
1:31:00
be out in the in the free
enterprise.
1:31:02
Adam Curry: But you know, you
and I are not from this
1:31:04
generation that was raised in in
the school system as it is
1:31:08
today. And where that is seen,
as you know, that's what your
1:31:10
poli sci degree does. I talked
to the Uber driver who picked me
1:31:13
up when he came back from
Holland, from San Antonio. And
1:31:17
he's saying, you know, I had
like these, like two people. And
1:31:21
they were, I think they when
they made me in the EPA, and
1:31:25
they were out scouting for their
next meeting in Hill Country.
1:31:28
And he said she had a title that
it was so long, I couldn't
1:31:31
remember it, which to me meant
she does nothing. And making
1:31:36
$130,000 a year. And this guy's
like, this is nonsense. Everyone
1:31:40
sees it. But so if you're making
a buck 30 You're like, yeah,
1:31:44
that's pretty good. I got this
long title. I'm a dude, I can
1:31:48
wear dresses, whatever, you can
do whatever you want. Of course,
1:31:54
that's not everybody. I
1:31:54
John C Dvorak: mean, it's
possible that and I do accept, I
1:31:59
do accept you do. I do accept
I'm glad you possibility that.
1:32:05
We're out of love with our
audience. You know, luckily, we
1:32:08
have an audience as as wide
ranging. And so they try to keep
1:32:13
us apprised. But we might be
losing some touch with Gen Z,
1:32:16
but you have Gen Z people around
you. So you're better off than
1:32:20
Adam Curry: I what I feel from
Gen Z is, well, as we discussed,
1:32:23
just not voting, not interested.
We're only interested in our own
1:32:27
community, we're going to lift
each other up, and we're going
1:32:29
to find cheap places to buy
food, and we're going to do our
1:32:33
best we don't care. We've
completely lost faith lost
1:32:37
confidence. COVID did that. For
sure. For sure. COVID. Like, oh,
1:32:42
these, that there's no, there's
no, they're not voting.
1:32:47
John C Dvorak: Yeah, I
understand that. But we were
1:32:49
talking about them, you know,
getting into the administrative
1:32:52
state and thinking it's a good
job. I have a clip, you might
1:32:55
realize that but the series, all
right, Gen Z. This is a woman
1:33:00
this is clips been going around.
This is a Gen Z complainer, and
1:33:04
she's done a series of these
clips. This I think is the
1:33:07
initial, the initial one does
good, where she's, and you have
1:33:10
to imagine that she's kind of
like a dyed red ahead with a rat
1:33:14
kind of a round face. She looks
very typical of a certain group
1:33:17
with a giant glasses that are
too big for a face that are
1:33:22
part, you know, somewhat stylish
and visible.
1:33:25
Adam Curry: Now it's in it's in
Gen Z. Eilish
1:33:28
John C Dvorak: in some circles,
I think it looks dumb. But hey,
1:33:31
Boomer,
1:33:31
Adam Curry: listen. That's the
stuff. That's the style right
1:33:34
now, you and I have
1:33:35
John C Dvorak: I know what it
is. I see it, you know, but here
1:33:37
she is complaining.
1:33:39
Unknown: I have two bachelor's
degrees. But I'm currently
1:33:41
unemployed. And I'm trying to
find a job and I'm not able to
1:33:45
find a job. I feel like if you
are not currently looking for a
1:33:47
job right now, in today's job
market, then you will not
1:33:50
understand how actually hard it
is to find a decent paying job.
1:33:56
Even if you have all the
credentials. I have two degrees
1:33:59
I have experienced I have a good
resume, I have it all. And I'm
1:34:03
still not able to find anything.
And people ask me like what do
1:34:07
you want to do? Like what's your
like dream career? What's your
1:34:10
dream job? And honestly, I don't
have one. I don't dream of
1:34:15
working. I don't want to work.
There's no career or job that I
1:34:20
can think of that I would be
like yeah, I would love to do
1:34:23
that every single day and spend
more of my time there then in my
1:34:27
home that I pay a crap ton of
money for like, No, I don't
1:34:30
dream of working. My dream life.
My dream day is to wake up by
1:34:36
the beach or somebody water and
drink my coffee and read my
1:34:39
book. Then take an afternoon nap
and read my book inside and then
1:34:44
have a nice dinner, get married
my dream daily life. But I know
1:34:48
in order to get there, I need
some kind of money and Monopoly
1:34:52
money won't work. So that means
I have to get a good paying job
1:34:55
but those are not available.
1:34:57
Adam Curry: So then I only have
a couple sources. My daughter's
1:35:01
is really the source my
stepdaughters my daughter. And
1:35:04
one of my stepdaughters is here
with us for a few months, she
1:35:07
has a knee operation and so
she's staying with us. And, you
1:35:11
know, she has degree, graduated
from University of Arkansas. And
1:35:15
she is in what she calls all of
her friends is the blue wave. As
1:35:19
she was doing, you know, fashion
photography production in New
1:35:23
York says I hated it, I hated
it. She took some time out, went
1:35:27
to bartending school, she loves
it works, you know, five days a
1:35:32
week, four days a week sometimes
gets tips loves the idea that
1:35:36
tips may not be not be taxed.
You know, a sly presidential
1:35:42
promise there from Trump. They
call it the blue wave. Like we
1:35:46
don't want this anymore. We're
sick and tired of it. It's a rat
1:35:50
race. You know, let me do
something in service. There's a
1:35:53
lot of that and I think that is
the trend and they do go to the
1:35:57
beach and wake up on the beach
and then go work at the bar
1:36:01
until two so I think there's a
trend there Okay, yeah. Okay,
1:36:12
kind of switching gears you
know, remember there's always an
1:36:15
out for the for the cheating. We
love you know, well, how about
1:36:19
them balance, people gotta think
of them ballots, as Taraji said,
1:36:25
so what do you need for them
ballots to work? Well, you need
1:36:27
solids, you need some kind of
lockdown situation with bird flu
1:36:33
is not working that day.
Although I did get some boots on
1:36:37
the ground from from multiple
people about about Dengue gay.
1:36:46
In Honduras, dengue again the
numbers are up Malaysia Dengue
1:36:51
numbers are up, but this is not
totally uncommon. No, it's
1:36:56
common. But if you really want
to scare somebody, you do what
1:36:59
Colorado does
1:37:00
Unknown: look back public health
officials in southern Colorado
1:37:03
are investigating human case of
the plague locally. Department
1:37:08
of Public Health and Environment
says findings are based on
1:37:11
preliminary test results only.
Health officials say the plague
1:37:14
can be transmitted by fleas or
wild rodents it can affect
1:37:18
people as well as their pets.
They have not specified which
1:37:22
specific form of the plague This
case involves but as soon as
1:37:26
more information comes in we'll
let you know
1:37:28
Adam Curry: the plague I love
the plague the plague it's just
1:37:31
has the great name. Once you got
got the plague stay away man And
1:37:35
got the plague. No, I don't
think the
1:37:38
John C Dvorak: plague the plague
is endemic. Yes. It's been
1:37:42
around forever still is and you
still get the plague.
1:37:46
Adam Curry: In 2015. Colorado
had the plague is with Colorado
1:37:49
actually in 2015 had the plague
as well. And three people died
1:37:53
from the plague. Don't remember
freaking out
1:37:56
John C Dvorak: about it then.
No, but now we can freak out
1:37:58
about it. Okay, a
1:38:00
Adam Curry: couple other
elections before we take our
1:38:01
break. The first one is Iran. We
had a run off yesterday and we
1:38:06
have a winner. Here's a profile
of Iran's new president
1:38:11
reformists.
1:38:11
Unknown: Massoud possessed Qian
is the winner in Iran's
1:38:14
presidential election. Here's
what to know about Iran's new
1:38:17
president. A cardiologist by
training position is a
1:38:20
relatively low profile figure
who served as Iran's Health
1:38:24
Minister between 2001 and 2005
and has represented the city of
1:38:28
Tabriz in the Iranian
Parliament's since 2008. During
1:38:32
his presidential campaign
possess, John hinted at more
1:38:35
diplomatic engagements with the
world vowing to reopen
1:38:38
communication channels with the
West to have the years long
1:38:41
sanctions imposed on Iran
lifted, although he added that
1:38:44
the US has always shown itself
to be an enemy of Iran. He also
1:38:48
has to close his intentions to
initiate reforms in both
1:38:51
economic and cultural domains
and vigorously defending the
1:38:54
2015 nuclear deal between Iran
and various world powers. Given
1:38:58
his progressive outlook, will he
be able to put his policies into
1:39:02
practice?
1:39:03
Adam Curry: So this guy seems
like he might be better
1:39:09
John C Dvorak: you can only do
so much and he is an advocate of
1:39:12
the moolah, so it's not going to
be that different.
1:39:15
Adam Curry: Well, he's a guy
that his wife has a gynecologist
1:39:17
how can how can they be wrong
this guy's got to have something
1:39:19
good going on. In the UK, we
have a new a new prime minister
1:39:26
and UK and thank God we have
Nigel Farage has a seat. That
1:39:31
means that clips will still be
still be abundant, be back in
1:39:35
business very, very happy if
we've even found a source for
1:39:38
the PMs question. And you
1:39:40
John C Dvorak: found a source I
appreciate that.
1:39:42
Adam Curry: Yeah, it was your
your beat is your beat luck.
1:39:45
Question time
1:39:46
John C Dvorak: used to be a
regular on this show. We used to
1:39:48
play it because C span would
play it and I get a clip or two.
1:39:52
They're always very
entertaining. And you get the
1:39:55
ones in Canada or even better,
but those are even harder to
1:39:58
come by. But Prime minutes stir
question time I will now feature
1:40:03
it won't happen a lot, but it
will happen enough that Faraj
1:40:05
will get up there and blow off
some steam and the first
1:40:10
Adam Curry: the first order of
events has already taken place
1:40:13
as the new and even though it's
more ceremonial than anything,
1:40:18
and if you see the numbers by
the way, it's something like 60%
1:40:22
of the Brits voted labour
because they just wanted the
1:40:25
Tories out. Yeah,
1:40:27
John C Dvorak: and 60% of the
ones who voted less than 40% I
1:40:31
think of the total population
voted people were just very,
1:40:34
which was predicted by Katie
Hopkins and one of the clips we
1:40:37
played some months back that
everyone's is apathetic.
1:40:40
Adam Curry: It was 40% who voted
labour just to change the
1:40:46
direction of the country didn't
mean that they and I think from
1:40:49
the numbers I saw only 5% voted
labour because they agree with
1:40:54
Labour's policies.
1:40:56
John C Dvorak: Right? Well, this
was like a classic Here you go
1:40:59
Adam Curry: people here's the
first thing that's gonna happen
1:41:02
Unknown: to Prime Minister was
asked by a British journalist
1:41:05
about the Rwanda scheme, that is
the scheme about processing and
1:41:09
sending back people who have
come here illegally, across from
1:41:15
France, northern shores of
France, and small embarkations
1:41:19
made it to Britain and whoever
then would be processed and sent
1:41:24
on deportation flights to
Rwanda, it's important to point
1:41:26
out that nobody, except one
person who did it voluntarily
1:41:30
has been sent but its cost
really millions of pounds
1:41:33
already being paid by the
British government to Rwanda. So
1:41:36
what the Prime Minister's was
asked is, is it dead and buried
1:41:40
now that you've been elected?
Kier, Starmer said and I quote
1:41:44
the scheme was dead and buried
before it started. He said that
1:41:49
it never acted as a deterrent.
And he pointed in fact, to the
1:41:52
record number of small boat
arrivals this year and in
1:41:57
previous years, so a very clear
message that that policy very
1:42:02
much wanted, originally wanted
by Boris Johnson, the former
1:42:06
prime minister, and very much
tried to be carried out by Rishi
1:42:09
Sunak. Can as I said, not watch
single person being sent out on
1:42:13
a deportation flight because of
all kinds of legal appeals that
1:42:17
is dead and buried and it was
never a deterrent says this
1:42:20
Labour Prime Minister kissed on
1:42:23
Adam Curry: just from a
perception standpoint, that
1:42:25
people have got to hate this.
1:42:27
John C Dvorak: Hold on a second.
This I did not know. I didn't
1:42:31
know that they had sent millions
and millions of pounds to Rwanda
1:42:36
to set the such situation up and
they never sent anybody there.
1:42:39
So they just threw that money
away. Well,
1:42:41
Adam Curry: that's what this guy
is saying. Who knows? I don't
1:42:45
know. This is what the reporter
lady says, I don't know. But the
1:42:49
whole Britain certainly as far
as I know, love the idea of
1:42:53
getting people out because their
whole street view has changed.
1:43:01
In Guilford where I used to
live, there is there is a Muslim
1:43:05
mayor, which is fine. But then
before the city council meeting,
1:43:10
because my my buddy Michelle
still lives there. And he's I
1:43:13
fear for his mental health and
his physical health even. He
1:43:16
sent me a video of the opening
of the Guilford City Council,
1:43:20
the cute little town, little
High Street. And so moolah gets
1:43:24
up and starts doing in Guilford.
That's not That's not the
1:43:31
culture of Britain or it wasn't
that change pretty rapidly. So
1:43:37
to
1:43:37
John C Dvorak: get him to get a
Muslim and Mayor in a place like
1:43:41
Guilford, you have to have had a
lot of Muslims, you
1:43:45
Adam Curry: start with that and
you know, it's just it's a
1:43:48
different culture and it's not
in the Brits now for you in the
1:43:50
minority, which they likely even
are. So you know, people may
1:43:55
disagree with me, but I'm
generalizing that people are not
1:43:58
happy. And it's not like That's
London, you know, it's 70 miles
1:44:02
away from London or something
like that. Maybe less. It's an
1:44:06
hour it's an hour and 15 minutes
by train. Mix the stockbroker.
1:44:09
But
1:44:09
John C Dvorak: that's that's a
that's a long way. Now
1:44:13
Sacramento of where I live is
about an hour and 15 minutes by
1:44:17
train.
1:44:18
Adam Curry: So in general Europe
is okay because we have the
1:44:22
European soccer competition
going on right now. The
1:44:26
Netherlands now in the semi
final, so people just all loving
1:44:30
it. They're all lawyers or
soccer. As long as their soccer
1:44:33
everybody's happy. However, in
France, things have have
1:44:38
changed.
1:44:39
John C Dvorak: Well, before you
leave Britain, I do have a
1:44:41
couple of things to say. Oh,
okay. Which is Starmer who many
1:44:46
think was a mi six.
1:44:49
Adam Curry: Yes. Well, he wasn't
he was in charge of the
1:44:52
John C Dvorak: Jimmy Savile
investigation investigation,
1:44:55
which which he buried. Yeah.
There's a lot of documentation
1:44:59
for that. Add, but is potential
for being mi six is when you see
1:45:04
him and his very cute wife. No,
I
1:45:08
Adam Curry: have not seen her.
1:45:10
John C Dvorak: Take a look at
Starmer and his wife and you
1:45:12
look and you say ah spoke
couple. Isn't
1:45:15
Adam Curry: it interesting that
the Dutch Prime Minister is also
1:45:17
a former spook and he oversaw
many pedophile cases, including
1:45:22
in the Justice Department that
were just kind of swept away the
1:45:27
Dominque affair, Rolodex affair,
all go all of these things just
1:45:32
kind of so that could be very
bad. Who knows? I mean, I don't
1:45:37
want to point fingers at any PDF
files. But I'm just saying now I
1:45:44
go to France. And and Marie
LePen had a nice sit down. I
1:45:49
like this because she did
something that that I've been
1:45:52
tracking for a while. The term
far right. Everything in, in
1:45:58
Europe as far right. Far right
this far right that far right
1:46:01
here. field as far right. LePen?
Far Right. AFD? Far Right. Far
1:46:05
Right. Far. Right. Far. Right.
So she sits down, she shuts
1:46:08
down. She sits down. She She
watches she shut down. I can't
1:46:12
go. Yeah. But the hardest, the
beginning. starts. She sits down
1:46:18
with Christine. I'm on four. And
I'm on poor lasered on her and
1:46:23
Christine LePen. Not Christine,
Marine LePen pushes back against
1:46:28
the elite globalist news lady,
the fact that
1:46:32
Unknown: your party did so well
in the European elections, and
1:46:35
so to Georgia Maloney's party,
and so did AFD. I mean, you
1:46:39
know, AFD is, you know, a little
bit like the former National
1:46:42
Front is very scary. The fact
that the far right is becoming a
1:46:48
very, very powerful force in
Europe. And who knows, maybe now
1:46:51
with all that's going on in the
United States, Donald Trump
1:46:54
might win a second term. How do
you see Europe changing the
1:47:01
festival? I strongly dispute the
term far right, which in your
1:47:04
country refers to small groups
that are extremely radical and
1:47:08
violent? If you like the
equivalent? You don't think
1:47:12
you're far right. The equivalent
of what we are in the United
1:47:15
States is between the center
right and the center left with
1:47:21
regards to ideas. So I think
this You're kidding me, right?
1:47:25
Yes. Yes. I'm telling you very
honestly, I think this use of
1:47:29
the term far right, carries a
stigma, and is very pejorative,
1:47:36
does not correspond to what we
are, and not at all to what the
1:47:39
far right is in the United
States. That's the first thing
1:47:42
to say. Secondly, we can't put
everyone in the same boat. For
1:47:46
example, in Europe, we distanced
ourselves from the AfD party,
1:47:51
because we're in total
disagreement with a number of
1:47:54
their statements. So together
with Mrs. Maloney, and with our
1:48:00
differences to what we call
patriots,
1:48:04
Adam Curry: so she pushes back
on the far right to and you look
1:48:07
at Arman pores face like You're
joking, right? In joking, but
1:48:12
you're having an off. You're
joking. You're joking, right?
1:48:15
Yes, it's not true. Right? I
mean, you know, everyone knows
1:48:17
that far right? Your far right?
Far Right, lady you crazy. She
1:48:20
could not believe it heard the
disbelief on that rather bulbous
1:48:24
head of hers was funny. And then
she says, hey, look, we're
1:48:27
patriots Oh, trigger word.
Please explain.
1:48:31
Unknown: In other words, we
defend the existence and the
1:48:34
power of nations within the
European Union. And that's
1:48:38
because nations are the
expression of the French people.
1:48:43
So say kissoon expression
appropriate for say, when the
1:48:47
European Union takes on certain
roles without consulting anyone,
1:48:52
it is no longer democratic. We
are defenders of nations. We
1:48:57
want a Europe of nations, a
Europe that respects the
1:49:00
decisions of the people and not
a super technocratic structure,
1:49:03
such as it exists today. And
that's the path that we want to
1:49:07
follow. A Europe of nations
that's respectful that leaves
1:49:11
projects Europe that doesn't
restrict that doesn't threaten,
1:49:15
that doesn't blackmail when it
comes to subsidies. Because
1:49:19
that's not our vision. So our
Europe is the Europe of adverse.
1:49:24
Forgive me, it's a competitor.
It's the Europe. It's not the
1:49:29
Europe of Madame Zombieland. So
we will fight within Europe to
1:49:33
redirect Europe in the direction
that we want
1:49:38
Adam Curry: to go there you go.
Good job, Marie. Good job.
1:49:42
John C Dvorak: She's always been
very sensible with her
1:49:45
arguments. Yes, and Emma's poor
is just an idiot. And
1:49:49
Adam Curry: with that, I'd like
to thank you for your currency
1:49:51
in the morning to you the man
who put the sea in the flying
1:49:53
cars say hello to my friend on
the other end V one, the only
1:49:56

2516 Okay, it was it was 150
1:50:29
More but that was right after
the after the debate. I think
1:50:31
this is good. I think we did
pretty good here.
1:50:34
John C Dvorak: That was before I
like it. Yeah, I remember
1:50:37

to use one of those because when
1:51:04
the hammer comes down, your
favorite podcasts are gonna go
1:51:07
away. It's already been
happening since 2018, Apple D
1:51:10
platforming Spotify D
platforming. So you know, you
1:51:15
want to have something that is
backed by the podcast index,
1:51:18
which is has no business model.
It's all value for value. It's
1:51:24
true. It's run. It's run by the
good graces of people supporting
1:51:28
it with value for value. And, of
course, there's lots of benefits
1:51:34
these modern podcast apps,
including when we publish, if
1:51:36
you can't listen live, you'll
get the notification within 90
1:51:40
seconds. And so you know, that's
always a bonus because we
1:51:43
literally are on the modern apps
way before any of the legacy
1:51:47
apps it's just the fact because
they don't want to participate.
1:51:49
So in fact, that's right. We run
value for value here at at the
1:51:55
no agenda show in October, it
will be 17 years I was a little
1:51:59
dismayed use you certainly way
before me what I have been a
1:52:06
Costco member. Goodness for at
least I want to say 14 to 13
1:52:14
years maybe. Yeah
1:52:16
John C Dvorak: longer neck I was
a Costco member before they
1:52:19
joined with Price Club. So for
the merger, I pre merger Costco
1:52:24
member
1:52:24
Adam Curry: and yeah, we love
Costco, you know, except for the
1:52:27
rubber fruit. We love Costco and
and the number of people have
1:52:32
pointed out to me that the
Costco you know, Costco
1:52:35
connection, which is their
magazine, which I read, I read
1:52:39
Costco connection, the guy was
going nice for members, it's
1:52:42
membership point thing, you
know, they have an article, the
1:52:46
power of podcasting. I mean,
where is it the power of
1:52:53
podcasting. And it's like the
podcasts have exploded in
1:52:57
popularity since 2004. When the
term was first introduced in an
1:53:00
article in The Guardian. Raw
statistics.com predicts the
1:53:09
number of podcast listeners
worldwide will reach 504 point 9
1:53:13
million this year. Producing
podcasts a now 20 year old
1:53:18
format takes planning
persistence and vision. Costco
1:53:22
members in the podcast, Costco
hits a grind Costco members in
1:53:27
the podcast space share how and
why they started and what they
1:53:32
love about the medium until they
have all these members of Costco
1:53:38
but missing is jumpseat of where
I can Adam curry I find this to
1:53:45
be a canard of epic proportion.
1:53:48
John C Dvorak: I agree and I
wouldn't even take myself out of
1:53:51
the picture because you invented
it the whole process for all
1:53:57
practical purposes and and
genuine purposes for any
1:54:01
purpose. And you think that they
track you down because it's not
1:54:05
that hard to figure out where
you are how you are where you
1:54:08
enter your
1:54:08
Adam Curry: hand look in the
database
1:54:10
John C Dvorak: if you just look
it up and there's Adam mcrae.com
1:54:13
I mean doesn't take a genius to
figure that out. They have a
1:54:16
card did you get a call
1:54:18
Adam Curry: no nothing that's
very disappointing. I think I'm
1:54:21
going to rescind my membership.
You've
1:54:24
John C Dvorak: always been
saying that well if there this
1:54:26
stuff when I took it across over
here you won't take my card I
1:54:32
Adam Curry: quit that's what was
it they wouldn't take American
1:54:35
Express no they only it was it
was was
1:54:37
John C Dvorak: something that
the time they'd only taken me
1:54:40
right they wouldn't take Visa or
Master Now they only takes up
1:54:43
mail I don't know what it what
it is but they keep changing
1:54:45
Yeah, well
1:54:45
Adam Curry: I receive mad at
them. Once you have
1:54:49
John C Dvorak: a debit card that
takes out this is basically a
1:54:51
cash card so just use that just
1:54:53
Adam Curry: shows me if there
that's
1:54:54
John C Dvorak: where that's
where your former wife bought
1:54:57
her first camera.
1:54:59
Adam Curry: I don't remember for
that, and believe me yeah Nikon
1:55:02
believe me wasn't hurt during
the buying. I
1:55:04
John C Dvorak: remember it. I
never got tanked. I'm the one
1:55:06
who recommended the cameras she
bought it there wasn't heard
1:55:09
during the night kind of for a
while and quickly changed to a
1:55:11
canon. like, Alright, everybody.
1:55:14
Adam Curry: Well, my last and
best wife shops at Costco, and
1:55:20
she was very perturbed. She's a
podcaster, too, you know?
1:55:23
John C Dvorak: That's true.
She's a podcaster.
1:55:25
Adam Curry: Does she get any
props? No, no, no, no. Yeah, I
1:55:29
John C Dvorak: think this is
very careless, which makes you
1:55:32
wonder the quality of the
magazine and people should pitch
1:55:35
How about the Costco magazine
saying they overlook the
1:55:39
obvious.
1:55:39
Adam Curry: How about the
quality of the food now I
1:55:41
question it. This is rubber
rubber.
1:55:44
John C Dvorak: Chicken the
chicken is is lost. This is
1:55:47
tough. Everybody's bitching
about the chicken? Because they
1:55:50
changed the packaging.
1:55:53
Adam Curry: Yeah, no, that's you
because it gets all moist and
1:55:55
John C Dvorak: No, no. Now
there's there's articles you can
1:55:57
look. You look it up. Chicken,
Chicken shotgun in a bag. It's
1:56:02
no good.
1:56:04
Adam Curry: Anyway, value for
value means that we can freely
1:56:09
talk about Costco and talk them
down. Because we don't take any
1:56:13
money from corporations. We
don't take any Costco. I wonder
1:56:18
if these people have
sponsorships? You gotta wonder.
1:56:22
Wonder if they're taught? Hey,
you know, I mean, think of all
1:56:24
the times if we had gotten paid,
you could have talked about
1:56:27
their great wine. You know, the
Easter eggs. I could have talked
1:56:31
about so many different things
I've gotten to Costco, which is
1:56:34
probably what these other
podcasters do. I'm just
1:56:36
thinking, I don't want to point
any fingers. But it could be
1:56:39
some kind of
1:56:40
John C Dvorak: deal. It could be
just a quid pro quo. Yeah.
1:56:43
Adam Curry: But what you want is
you want people who are honest
1:56:46
and just talk about stuff they
like or don't like, whenever
1:56:48
they feel like it. And that's
us. That's because we have
1:56:51
decided to not have listeners,
we don't want listeners, we want
1:56:54
producers. If you're not a
producer, what are you doing? If
1:56:57
you're listening you're not
supporting us we're by at least
1:56:59
hitting someone in the mouth
getting them to listen,
1:57:02
organizing a meet up, maybe
doing some art Whoa, boy do we
1:57:06
love our artists or artists are
so on top of everything. They go
1:57:09
to no agenda, art generator.com.
All of these pieces of art are
1:57:13
used by Dred Scott in the
chapters on those modern podcast
1:57:16
apps. You see how we've built a
whole empire out of value for
1:57:19
value. And we thank the one the
only comic strip blogger. He
1:57:25
doesn't win often that much that
1:57:28
John C Dvorak: little he's on
the list of leaderboards. Yeah,
1:57:30
but
1:57:31
Adam Curry: he hasn't. Ever
since he went full AI it kind of
1:57:34
got annoying, because it's
always the same. But there was
1:57:37
something about the art that we
chose for our July 4 Episode
1:57:43
Episode 1674 titled we're
working. There was something
1:57:48
about the dogs bug eyes in this
thing. Yeah, that was that was
1:57:51
fun and just made it perfect.
And we'd like to do a
1:57:55
traditional piece of art for
some of these big holidays. So
1:58:00
obviously we were looking for
flags. We were looking for
1:58:03
firewire work and we debated
quite some time over let's see
1:58:09
I'm scrolling down here well
1:58:11
John C Dvorak: I liked the
Matthew drop co did some great
1:58:14
pieces. Yeah, you'd
1:58:15
Adam Curry: like the cheesecake.
It was good cheesecake. Yeah,
1:58:19
that
1:58:19
John C Dvorak: was all it was
the same thing it was all AI
1:58:21
there's no although it was well
done. I like to particularly
1:58:25
like the redhead.
1:58:26
Adam Curry: Well, we almost
chose pickles surprise with
1:58:29
Merkaz birthday.
1:58:31
John C Dvorak: Yeah, that was it
was close. It was the
1:58:33
Adam Curry: eagle with a hat arm
which was funny the flag
1:58:36
John C Dvorak: that I think
that's what the runner up is
1:58:38
eagle with the hat. Definitely.
And there's because he was
1:58:41
wearing a stupid hat. That
1:58:42
Adam Curry: may be kind of
funny. But there was the it was
1:58:46
it wasn't quite. I don't know.
You
1:58:48
John C Dvorak: You didn't like
that. I liked that piece more
1:58:50
than you did. Because you didn't
like to diminish the lack. I
1:58:54
think it was the lack of
dimensionality whereas the AI
1:58:56
piece had a lot of it. And and
it was also slicker basically.
1:59:04
And there was something about
the bug eyed dog was good. Bug.
1:59:10
I don't really discuss how dogs
don't like Fourth of July,
1:59:13
Adam Curry: and I also kind of
like the sad ice cream girl but
1:59:15
that was not really a story. I
was a Darren O'Neal. Something,
1:59:20
John C Dvorak: but it was a
Darren O'Neal throw away. Yeah.
1:59:23
Adam Curry: We wanted a happy
piece of art and comics are
1:59:26
bloggers. He's a prompt jockey
of extraordinary proportions.
1:59:30
John C Dvorak: He's gotten
really good at it. He's
1:59:31
Adam Curry: gotten good at it.
So we thank the artists, you can
1:59:34
enjoy all of that art. As I
said, in the modern podcast apps
1:59:37
and the chapter images. If
you're driving using CarPlay or
1:59:40
Android Auto, it'll switch while
you're driving. So beware
1:59:43
because you just might veer off
the road with laughter because
1:59:47
some of these things are off the
hook and not really for public
1:59:50
consumption. But there you go.
They're in there. And thank you
1:59:54
again to comments your blogger a
fine Dutch master of Poland, of
1:59:58

Canada Navion dollar seeing it's

2:00:29

2:00:33
Adam Curry: show hon, in
Oakville, Ontario and we have
2:00:37
not found a note for San Diego

2:00:40

2:00:45
came that's a stripe donation
that came in through stripe and
2:00:49

in easily. So that would be
2:00:54

2:01:48
female listener of no agenda.

for a knighthood and that he's
got his his knighthood on here,

which is you need to spot a
penny. Oh, I was the reality. I
2:03:10
personally came from long
bloodlines of both Jews dad's
2:03:13
side and Christian Quaker
English, with the realization
2:03:16
that both my sides came to this
great country in hopes of
2:03:19
escaping unrelenting religious
persecution.
2:03:21
Adam Curry: Hold on a second I
often got the penny.
2:03:25
John C Dvorak: I offer the
following message of compassion
2:03:27
to all people conveniently
enough, this heart centered
2:03:30
message is best summarized as an
ask Adam question. Oh, okay,
2:03:37

peerage committee consider

just finished her first year in

it. And we all want to wish her
2:08:15
even more success and good times
in her second year starting this

Devorah Consulting Group as she
does from the media degree. I
2:08:28
hope so. De Mila WE LOVE YOU Big
hugs from Max Natasha and mark

Can I get a patriot karma? Do
2:12:06
you qualify? Do you want quality
affordable coffee? This is what
2:12:10
you call a non sequitur. It kind
of can I get a patriot karma. Do

get people in the mouth
2:15:31
Adam Curry: NTD I don't
typically come in with NTD
2:15:34
clips. That is MTD. MTD. Yes,
this is this is normally your
2:15:40
beat. But it is but I came
across a piece here, which are
2:15:45
split into a couple of shorter
clips. As although I don't know
2:15:51
if NTD will, will give the
excuse me, will give this
2:15:56
particular news item the
exposure that it needs. But it
2:16:00
is nice to be able to point to
peer reviewed studies that prove
2:16:04
the climate change narrative is
one big hoax. So
2:16:08
Unknown: Alex, we've been told
for a long time that climate
2:16:10
change emergency has settled
science, it looks like it's no
2:16:13
longer settled. What happened.
While
2:16:16
there's a series of three new
peer reviewed papers published
2:16:19
in major prestigious scientific
journals just over the last
2:16:22
month or so, and taken together,
they completely undermine the
2:16:27
alleged scientific consensus on
manmade global warming. One of
2:16:32
them found that about 40% of the
observed warming can be
2:16:35
explained away using the urban
heat island effect. So to try to
2:16:39
summarize that basically, a lot
of these thermometers were put
2:16:41
out there in an open field in a
rural area, a city was built up
2:16:45
around it. And so it gets
warmer, obviously not because
2:16:47
there's global warming, but
because there's a city around
2:16:49
the thermometer, the rest of the
warming, they found can be
2:16:53
easily explained using changes
in solar activity that NASA has
2:16:57
been tracking meticulously for
many decades. And so right now,
2:17:01
these are in the peer reviewed
literature. And instead of
2:17:04
responding to this, you've got
the climate establishment going
2:17:06
on Twitter and saying these guys
are basically poopoo heads and
2:17:09
clowns and deniers. So, you
know, at this point, you wonder,
2:17:13
do they have a scientific
response? Because if they did,
2:17:16
they would probably write a peer
reviewed paper to refute the
2:17:18
ones that just undermined their
their claims.
2:17:21
Adam Curry: So that's the
headline. And now we can dive a
2:17:23
little bit deeper into this peer
reviewed literature. And who's a
2:17:26
part of that? Well,
2:17:27
Unknown: how did they get in
Lena, it's hard to get a peer
2:17:30
reviewed, peer reviewed paper
when it comes to these topics.
2:17:33
What was the kind of hole in the
wall that brought this about so
2:17:37
to speak?
2:17:38
You're right, it is very hard to
get any peer reviewed studies in
2:17:41
journals. Because there's
there's almost like an iron
2:17:44
wall, blocking this. And we got
some insight into this during
2:17:47
the climate gate scandal in
2009, when a bunch of emails
2:17:51
were hacked and leaked to the
public, showing a bunch of so
2:17:54
called climate scientists. In
fact, some of the leading so
2:17:56
called climate scientists
conspiring to hide their data
2:17:59
from other researchers
conspiring to hide the decline
2:18:02
in global temperatures, and
conspiring to silence any
2:18:06
scientists who wouldn't go along
with the narrative. Keep them
2:18:08
out of the journals, keep them
out of, you know, TV, media,
2:18:11
interviews, etc. So what
happened is these papers were
2:18:14
just really solid, you know,
these three journals that
2:18:17
publish them, they're not known
for being, you know, climate
2:18:19
denier publications. But the
science was very sound. They did
2:18:23
one special issue in the journal
climate. For example, they had
2:18:25
some guests editors, including
Dr. Ned Nikolov, who I wrote
2:18:29
about back in 2017. They looked
at this, they said, Wow, you
2:18:32
know, this is correct, as best
as we can tell. So the peers
2:18:35
looked at it, they accepted it.
And this is a really prestigious
2:18:39
team. Josh, we're talking about
almost 40 scientists from around
2:18:41
the world. The lead author, Dr.
Willie Soon, one of the world's
2:18:44
top astrophysicist, if not the
top astrophysicist, used to be
2:18:48
at the Harvard Smithsonian,
you've got Ronan Connolly. These
2:18:52
are very, very well established,
very prestigious, highly
2:18:55
credentialed experts. And it's
good to finally see some
2:19:00
alternative viewpoints published
in the peer reviewed literature.
2:19:02
I think the dam is finally
cracking Josh.
2:19:04
Adam Curry: Yeah, the dam is,
yes, the dam is cracking. We
2:19:07
have experts who are now poor,
what
2:19:10
Unknown: effect are we seeing
now that some pretty credible
2:19:13
people are stepping forward on
this?
2:19:15
That's exactly right. And I
reached out to a lot of
2:19:17
scientists for my article and
the epic times about this and
2:19:19
over and over again, I, you
know, I'd love to comment, but I
2:19:22
can't because my funding is
going to be jeopardized. My
2:19:25
grant is going to be
jeopardized. You know, if I get
2:19:27
associated with saying that
these papers are important, I'm
2:19:29
going to be you know, labeled
and I won't be able to
2:19:32
participate anymore in
scientific do it. So there's
2:19:34
still a very real sense that
that's going on. But when you
2:19:37
look at the the scientists
behind these papers, for
2:19:40
example, Dr. Willie Soon, these
are people who've now moved away
2:19:43
from the major institutions. Dr.
Willie Soon ended his time at
2:19:47
Harvard Smithsonian last year,
and they're now working
2:19:50
independently so they have an
organization called saris.
2:19:53
That's the real issue, right?
Any scientist who comes out and
2:19:56
says, hey, the UN is not telling
the truth. The federal
2:19:58
government is not telling the
truth. After their their grants
2:20:01
are going to dry up. If they're
not tenured, they're going to be
2:20:03
at risk of losing their job. But
when you take a bunch of
2:20:06
scientists who are completely
independent who don't need
2:20:08
federal grants who don't need to
participate with the UN, they
2:20:11
have a lot more freedom and I
think that's what's going on
2:20:13
here.
2:20:13
Adam Curry: There they go. That
will go nowhere, of course, but
2:20:16
at least we heard literally
nowhere at least we heard it at
2:20:20
least we have heard it. You
heard it here. You can
2:20:23
John C Dvorak: play this stuff
till hell freezes over and Mark
2:20:25
is gonna change
2:20:26
Adam Curry: mark it down. Yeah,
that's right. Money Talks, Money
2:20:29
talks. So I have some kind of
funny AI clips.
2:20:35
John C Dvorak: I have one AI
clip. Oh, let's
2:20:37
Adam Curry: go with yours first.
2:20:39
John C Dvorak: Well, my AI clip
is disconcerting. It's about the
2:20:44
patents. Here we go.
2:20:45
Adam Curry: China is filing six
times more patents and
2:20:48
generative AI inventions than
the US that's according to data
2:20:52
from the United Nations.
Generative AI produces new
2:20:55
content from existing
information. It can be used for
2:20:59
content creation and data
analysis. This technology is
2:21:02
growing rapidly. Now China seems
to be ahead in terms of the
2:21:07
amount of patent applications,
it filed applications for over
2:21:10
38,000 generative AI inventions
from 2014 to 2003, the US filed
2:21:17
a little over 6000. Over the
same period, Chinese patent
2:21:21
applications range from
autonomous driving to publishing
2:21:25
to document management. Among
the top applications or
2:21:28
bytedance, the Chinese owned
owner of Tiktok plus Microsoft,
2:21:33
which backs the developer of
chat GPT, South Korea, Japan and
2:21:38
India were ranked third, fourth
and fifth respectively, with
2:21:41
India growing at the fastest
rate. Now, are these patterns
2:21:45
are these global patterns that
follow? That must be apple?
2:21:48
Yeah. Yeah. So that seems like
there's still a lot of
2:21:51
litigation ahead in the AI to AI
2:21:54
John C Dvorak: will invest in
lawyers? Yes. Oh,
2:21:57
Adam Curry: my goodness, this is
gonna go nowhere. So I have to
2:22:02
have two clips. The first one is
kind of is a throwback. This is
2:22:07
five years ago, when Sam Altman,
who already then just had that
2:22:11
annoying cadence, that annoying
explanation for things was at
2:22:17
the strictly VC conference. And
of course, he had already raised
2:22:21
a lot of money for open AI,
which at the time, I think might
2:22:25
have already transitioned to a
for profit company, or at least
2:22:28
part of it. And so you have this
typical, it's, it's on YouTube,
2:22:35
typical VC partner, Lady girl,
who's asking the questions. And
2:22:41
I just thought it was
interesting, how he explained
2:22:47
how they thought they would get
a return on the investment for
2:22:50
the investors. Which to date, I
think the last numbers we heard,
2:22:55
which we parlayed from CNBC was
$50 billion dollars has gone in,
2:23:00
and about three has come out so
far. So yeah, seems
2:23:04
John C Dvorak: like yeah, good
luck in your money.
2:23:06
Adam Curry: I'll even just get
100 billion invested, then we'll
2:23:09
get the money.
2:23:10
John C Dvorak: Yeah, more.
That's the old joke. You know,
2:23:12
the guy said, Get driving around
his watermelon trucks, and he's
2:23:16
selling these watermelons. And
he says, he sells them for two
2:23:20
bucks apiece. And he drives
around and he says, What are you
2:23:24
doing on the watermelon
business? Well, I'm losing $1 On
2:23:27
every watermelon losing, like
$100. And every load he says,
2:23:30
Oh, well, how are you gonna fix
that? I said, I'm gonna get more
2:23:32
trucks.
2:23:35
Adam Curry: We'll make it up in
volume. Alright, so here's all
2:23:39
you know,
2:23:40
Unknown: Google has business
units, and it's got objectives.
2:23:43
And it just seems like
2:23:45
open air is so sort of
amorphous, but it is a business.
2:23:49
So I'm just wondering,
2:23:50
Adam Curry: oh, I just love
terms like this. Oh, it's just
2:23:52
we're really amorphous. What
does that even mean? What is a
2:23:54
morphus? Beat
2:23:55
John C Dvorak: anything? This is
a VC talk
2:23:58
Adam Curry: VC gobbledygook.
We're very, we're starting
2:24:03
John C Dvorak: in Bo Jumbo.
2:24:04
Adam Curry: We're an amorphous
startup. Yeah, that's weird.
2:24:07
Yes, mumbo jumbo,
2:24:09
Unknown: open air is so sort of
amorphous, but it is a business.
2:24:12
So I'm just wondering, like,
eventually is the idea to kind
2:24:15
of like, licensed technologies,
will you have customers, you're
2:24:19
gonna be customizing algorithms
for
2:24:21
them? Or how is it gonna work?
You know, the honest answer is
2:24:24
we have no idea. We we have
never made any revenue. We have
2:24:29
no current plans to make
revenue. We have no idea how we
2:24:32
may one day generate revenue. We
have made a soft promise to
2:24:35
investors that once we build
this sort of generally
2:24:39
intelligent system, basically,
we will ask it to figure out a
2:24:43
way to generate an investment
return for you. It sounds like
2:24:49
an episode of Silicon Valley. It
really does. I get it I you can
2:24:54
laugh. It's all right. But it is
what I actually believe is going
2:24:57
to happen. So Oh, there aren't
many things like this where
2:25:03
they're so difficult to reason
about and so powerful that if
2:25:06
you can build it, like, you
know, there's that joke that I
2:25:08
actually think is very funny,
which is like, step one is do
2:25:11
this thing. Step two is do this
thing. Question mark, question
2:25:13
mark, question mark profit. But
like, you know, I think if AGI
2:25:18
is on the table, that's actually
okay. And if we have to take
2:25:21
like, you know, 1/1000 of 1% of
the value that we create, and
2:25:25
returned to investors, and then
figure out how to share the rest
2:25:28
sort of equally among the world
that Attfield that feels okay.
2:25:31
Yeah,
2:25:31
Adam Curry: well, that's what
he's doing. 50 billion in 3
2:25:35
billion out he's keeping to His
promises. Good luck investors.
2:25:40
So then comes the news that of
Moshi moshi. Have you heard of
2:25:46
Moshe Moshe
2:25:49
John C Dvorak: No I have not
2:25:51
Adam Curry: so Moshe Moshe. Now
France has their own AI large
2:25:56
language model Mistral, in which
actually it's open source
2:26:01
actually use the mistral model
at home for what is useful for
2:26:06
you know, when I when I need to
write Project 2026. I'll use the
2:26:11
mistral model. So there's
another company in France, and
2:26:15
they have developed Moshe Moshe
is $300 million very modest
2:26:18
investment in this company. Only
$300 million. Holy crap. $300
2:26:25
million.
2:26:27
John C Dvorak: That's a lot of
money. Yeah, that's considered
2:26:29
modest, which is ludicrous. So
2:26:33
Adam Curry: the one thing that
open aI had was that demo. And
2:26:36
of course, you know, we also
which was folded up because of
2:26:40
the latency was chopped out the
latency. It was obviously
2:26:44
predetermined, like, oh, wow, it
looks like you're going to do a
2:26:48
presentation of some sort with
these professional cameras, are
2:26:50
you you're you're rocking an AI
hoodie is an open AI
2:26:54
demonstration. Wow, this thing
is genius. It's multimodal. So,
2:27:01
but the demo was reasonable. You
know, most of these demos really
2:27:04
suck in the Microsoft did their
demo, which they then had to
2:27:09
later no a Google did their
demo, which they later had to
2:27:11
admit of Gemini that they had
cut out, you know, seconds and
2:27:16
seconds of latency. So the
French come out, they come out
2:27:20
with Moshe Moshe and they give
it to the France 24 technology
2:27:26
editor. You will not believe
this demo
2:27:30
Unknown: Frances answer to the
AI revolution to the big step
2:27:33
this week with the release of
Moshe a voice bot which responds
2:27:37
with unnerving speed and emotion
now to test it out. I can
2:27:41
welcome onset Peter O'Brien.
2:27:43
Adam Curry: I mean this is
already with the setup is great.
2:27:45
It's a we are going against open
AI Francis better view but of
2:27:50
course we have a false we have a
better, better for cheaper
2:27:53
Unknown: here. Introduce us to
Moshe, hi Allison. So Moshe is
2:27:57
the product of a nonprofits Q
tie, which was founded in
2:28:01
November by three billionaires.
Some of you have heard of Saudi
2:28:05
and Eric Schmidt's formerly of
Google. Now it's really one of
2:28:09
France's two big hopes when it
comes to AI. The other one is
2:28:12
Mr. Al, the startup that's
raised about six has been valued
2:28:16
about 6 billion euros since it
was founded last April. Now
2:28:21
there's less pressure on queue
tight. So it's a nonprofit, and
2:28:24
it has a more meager, shall we
say, budget of 300 million
2:28:28
euros, but they have set
themselves a high standard and a
2:28:32
big task, which is to they say,
create artificial general
2:28:36
intelligence. That's AI that's
meant to theoretically at least
2:28:40
be smarter than a human being.
Now, we talked to the CEO
2:28:44
Patrick Perez a few months ago,
and he said that the way they
2:28:46
were going to do this was by
really focusing on something
2:28:48
called multimodal AI, that's ais
that can do many different
2:28:51
things at once. And we've just
got the first proofs have their
2:28:55
labor out this week, which is
mostly a research prototype that
2:28:59
is you can talk to it's a it's a
voice bot. I've been having a
2:29:02
few different conversations with
it, take a listen to a snippet
2:29:05
of one of them. Okay,
2:29:06
Adam Curry: so that's the setup.
It's multimodal, which by the
2:29:10
way, I think you and I are both
multimodal, it's amazing how
2:29:13
multimodal we're sure what that
means. It means you can
2:29:16
understand video and pictures
and texts and an audio we're
2:29:21
multimodal
2:29:23
John C Dvorak: so Oh, you mean
like normal people?
2:29:26
Adam Curry: Yes, like people. So
he sets it up. Now what you see
2:29:29
on screen looks like how 2000
2:29:33
John C Dvorak: Yeah, of course,
you want.
2:29:36
Adam Curry: You will not believe
the demo that this 300 meager
2:29:40
$300 million company allowed
them to show on France. 24
2:29:46
Standby.
2:29:48
Unknown: Is your friend. I don't
remember his name. I don't
2:29:51
remember who it was. But he said
that his roommate was Joe Biden.
2:29:54
And he said, I think he said he
was eating ice cream before he
2:29:58
went to bed.
2:30:00
Ah, that sounds a lot like Joe
Biden. He loves ice cream.
2:30:03
Yeah, I think he was saying that
he was eating ice cream before
2:30:06
he went to bed. And then he went
into the room. And there was a
2:30:09
girl there. Oh, yeah. Eating ice
cream and they started making
2:30:15
Adam Curry: the girl started
making it with Joe Biden. I
2:30:17
think that's what it was. Are
you kidding me?
2:30:25
John C Dvorak: So that female
voice was the AI? Yeah, yes. But
2:30:29
what was it talking about
2:30:30
Adam Curry: that that it was
talking about? This guy's friend
2:30:34
who was roommate was Joe Biden
and Joe Biden was eating an ice
2:30:38
cream and then a girl came in
not woman a girl came in eating
2:30:41
ice cream. And then Joe Biden
and the girls started making
2:30:43
out.
2:30:46
John C Dvorak: So the
demonstration was of a
2:30:48
hallucination. Yes. To say the
least a pedophile hallucination
2:30:53
and a pet. Well, they get at
least we're getting some of it
2:30:55
right.
2:30:58
Adam Curry: Man Oh, man. I was
like, that's your demo.
2:31:05
John C Dvorak: That's pretty
pretty pathetic. is
2:31:07
Adam Curry: unbelievable.
2:31:10
John C Dvorak: That was that was
actually on TV.
2:31:12
Adam Curry: That was on TV. Yes.
2:31:16
John C Dvorak: I was just gonna
go on any further they cut it
2:31:19
off or what happened?
2:31:20
Adam Curry: It wasn't funny
after that. That was the
2:31:22
funniest bit. Yeah, they were
like, Oh, well, Joe Biden. Yeah,
2:31:25
he always eats ice cream and
makes out with girls. What in
2:31:29
the world is happening with AI?
Although it's probably the most
2:31:33
John C Dvorak: accurate has to
do with the input, the most
2:31:36
accurate AI, very accurate AI.
2:31:40
Adam Curry: Then, of course,
they're finally catching on a
2:31:42
little bit about the issues with
AI. Here's the BBC, you'll
2:31:45
Unknown: hear a lot about AI or
artificial intelligence and its
2:31:49
possible impact. Now, it seems
that the global greenhouse gas
2:31:53
emissions of the US technology
giant Google were nearly 50%,
2:31:57
higher last year than in 2019.
That's because of the increasing
2:32:02
amounts of energy needed by its
computer servers, fueled by the
2:32:06
explosive growth of artificial
intelligence. This will make
2:32:10
achieving so called net zero
emissions by 2030. significantly
2:32:15
more difficult.
2:32:16
Adam Curry: So this is a
narrative that's going on in in
2:32:18
Europe in the UK that is very
annoying to Google. So they sent
2:32:22
out one of their I think she's a
scholar Amanda Smith. You know,
2:32:26
Amanda Smith used to work at
Google.
2:32:29
John C Dvorak: Amanda Smith, the
name rings a bell, but I don't
2:32:32
know that I could say, well, she
2:32:34
Adam Curry: tries to combat the
narrative, Google's greenhouse
2:32:37
gas emissions are skyrocketing.
2:32:39
Unknown: Yeah, so three years
ago, Google set an ambitious
2:32:41
plan to address climate change
by going net zero by 2030. But
2:32:45
its latest environmental report
shows it's nowhere near to
2:32:48
meeting those goals. Google's
emissions surged 48% Compared to
2:32:52
2019, and increased 13%. Year
over year in 2023. The tech
2:32:57
giant says it's because of the
energy needed by its data
2:32:59
centers, exacerbated by the
growth of artificial
2:33:02
intelligence, and that its net
zero emissions goals are now
2:33:05
quote, extremely ambitious.
Google's report also reveals
2:33:08
large global disparities in the
impacts of its data centers,
2:33:11
most of the ones in Europe and
the Americas, for example, get
2:33:14
the majority of their energy
from carbon free sources, unlike
2:33:18
centers in the Middle East Asia
and Australia. Tech companies
2:33:22
also make the case that AI is
not just a negative force when
2:33:25
it comes to climate change. But
it is also helping to address
2:33:28
it, take a listen to this
expert, we
2:33:30
have to understand that if we
are using more energy to do
2:33:35
something, that energy we want
to push for it to come from
2:33:40
renewable and low carbon sources
as much as possible. But we also
2:33:44
have to ask the question, what's
the benefit we're getting from
2:33:47
the status center or from this
use of AI? Is it benefiting
2:33:51
humanity? Is it making our lives
better? Is it making our society
2:33:54
more equitable? So it's just
important to understand AI can
2:33:58
be a force that increases
emissions and AI can be a force
2:34:03
that decreases emissions. It's
up to us as humans we're doing
2:34:07
it with it stay
2:34:08
with the theme of emissions
general motors that are facing a
2:34:12
pretty hefty fine
2:34:13
Adam Curry: that's right federal
official it should have been on
2:34:15
that. So yeah, so they're
they're saying well, but you
2:34:17
know, the benefits of AI will
far outweigh the killing of the
2:34:22
earth and using of Our resource
this is from the same company
2:34:26
that installs a thermostat in
your house that turns down your
2:34:30
air conditioner or your heat to
save the world yet they're
2:34:33
blowing up the world so called
with their data centers.
2:34:38
John C Dvorak: This has become
like the people who bitch about
2:34:40
climate change and then they
jump in their private jets.
2:34:43
Adam Curry: It's YES only on a
much, much larger scale. Yes,
2:34:47
much larger scale.
2:34:49
John C Dvorak: That yeah, they
put themselves in a bind with
2:34:51
this. Yeah, there are big shots.
Oh, we're gonna stop. We're
2:34:55
gonna have a zero emissions,
neutral, blah, blah blah by
2:34:58
2013. And they Jump on the AI
bandwagon it just sucks up juice
2:35:03
like there's no tomorrow and no
what are the benefits? We do?
2:35:06
Like we get artists now that can
do AI art and Okay, well that's
2:35:10
yeah.
2:35:10
Adam Curry: And we will getting
better. I mean, we know that Joe
2:35:12
Biden eats ice cream and makes
out with girls.
2:35:16
John C Dvorak: Yeah, we had that
part. We knew that already.
2:35:21
Adam Curry: Didn't need to burn
all that fossil fuel for that.
2:35:28
Here this is a I have a little
series of clips here. This is
2:35:33
regarding we still have a couple
of wars going on looks no one
2:35:37
seems to talk about because you
know, Kamala Harris Biden, Trump
2:35:41
the AI what are the you know,
people young people are dying,
2:35:47
dying on the Russian side dying
on the Ukrainian side? Just
2:35:50
dying hundreds of 1000s Not a
single video really? Do you see
2:35:55
of that? I mean, I get it from
from military sources. And they
2:36:00
they'll send me like a signal or
telegram. It's gruesome. It's so
2:36:04
gruesome. See these young people
just dead? Dead dismembered?
2:36:10
Yeah,
2:36:11
John C Dvorak: they're killing
out the gene pool of the
2:36:12
Ukrainian men.
2:36:14
Adam Curry: But you don't see
that? You know, there's no
2:36:16
reality of war in the mainstream
media. No reality they should
2:36:20
really? They should. If you want
to end it, do stuff like that.
2:36:24
Or if you want to end it, how
about making peace? Well, that's
2:36:29
exactly what Viktor Orban. Oh my
goodness, he's the trump of
2:36:34
Europe. Viktor Orban, the
president of Hungary, who now
2:36:38
assumes the presidency of the
European Council, he went I
2:36:44
what? He went to have a chat
with Putin. Oh no.
2:36:48
Unknown: The Hungarian Prime
Minister Viktor Orban has met
2:36:50
with Russian President Vladimir
Putin in Moscow on the heels of
2:36:54
Orman's trip to Ukraine. Putin
received Orban at the Kremlin,
2:36:58
and said he was ready to discuss
so called nurses of peace
2:37:02
proposals to end his war in
Ukraine. Hungary just took over
2:37:06
the US rotating presidency and
the visit is being heavily
2:37:10
criticized by EU leaders who say
Obama has no mandate to speak
2:37:15
for the block or have been
critical of the EU.
2:37:20
John C Dvorak: So me well, Van
der Leyen who is when she was
2:37:23
running the show, which still
she's still queen. Yes, she is
2:37:26
floating around doing all kinds
of stuff without a mandate.
2:37:30
Yeah,
2:37:31
Adam Curry: including actual
mandating of vaccinations. Yeah,
2:37:36
John C Dvorak: and doing deals
with Pfizer and spending money
2:37:39
that she didn't wasn't allowed
to do. But disk, okay. And I
2:37:43
just thought I'd throw that in.
Make sure that we remember that.
2:37:46
So
2:37:46
Adam Curry: the reporter that's
about to come in, it doesn't
2:37:48
come across quite as good. This
is Deutsche Avella doesn't come
2:37:53
in quite as good. But she has a
sneering eye rolling kind of,
2:38:00
you know, the kind that I'm
talking about your
2:38:03
Unknown: body. Oban has no
mandate to speak for the block
2:38:07
or ban has been critical of the
EU for its reluctance to
2:38:11
pressure Ukraine into
negotiations with Russia, while
2:38:14
President Putin and Prime
Minister Orban have just
2:38:16
addressed a joint press
conference and our correspondent
2:38:18
Emily Sherman and Riga has been
keeping a close eye on
2:38:21
Adam Curry: Riga for some
reason. I don't know what that
2:38:23
has to do with anything but
she's in Riga. Emily,
2:38:26
Unknown: what did the two
leaders say?
2:38:27
Well, there was seems that there
was a real focus on in their
2:38:32
talks on Ukraine and on Ukraine
potential peace process there.
2:38:37
Putin for repeated his claim
that Russia has and has always
2:38:43
been and still is open for
diplomatic negotiations to end
2:38:47
fighting. He portrayed Ukraine
as the stumbling block there.
2:38:52
And as he called them, Ukraine's
Western sponsors, who he blamed
2:38:57
for basically locking the peace.
Of course, this is rhetoric that
2:39:01
we've heard from Putin before.
And when it comes to Obama, he
2:39:05
was firmly positioning himself
as a potential immediate
2:39:08
intermediary for the Ukraine
conflict. He said that there's
2:39:12
hardly any leaders nowadays who
are able to talk to both sides
2:39:17
in the conflict, both Russia and
Ukraine, and today with his
2:39:21
visit to Moscow, he was
portraying himself as one of
2:39:23
those very few leaders as he
said,
2:39:25
Adam Curry: Oh, yes. Oh, I roll
smirk air quotes Oh, no. So, it
2:39:31
so what happened is, this was
France 24 Deutsche btw Deutsche
2:39:35
Bella the course so what he did
is he got a reasonably regular
2:39:40
plane I think a seven it looked
like a 737 any any flew first to
2:39:45
meet was a Lensky. And then he
did some trickery so that he
2:39:50
could fly out of there and then
flew over Poland and then, you
2:39:54
know, he did a U turn. And then
he went to Moscow and before
2:39:57
anyone knew that he was already
landing in Moscow. He didn't he
2:39:59
had You know, there's he had to
do this all this, this covert
2:40:03
stuff to get over there. And on
the plane, yeah, and this is
2:40:07
just a regular plane is in the
plane. There's like a, like a
2:40:11
YouTuber dude or a podcaster,
who literally has one of those
2:40:14
road wireless mics, you know,
kind of the big square ones.
2:40:18
Yeah, on a Stick. Stick. And
he's in there interviewing or
2:40:25
Bong, and it's like a 30 minute
interview. And I had to pull a
2:40:29
couple of clips, pretty
creative, very creative. And he
2:40:33
starts off by saying, Well, why
why are you doing this to make
2:40:36
Unknown: peace is a Christian
action. It's a Christian
2:40:40
attitude based action. Because
if you would like to approach to
2:40:44
peace on a political way, you
strive to become more and more
2:40:48
bureaucratic. What kind of
negotiation or authority you
2:40:52
have, what the council will say
about the high for impulse
2:40:57
representation of counsel, we
say Mr. Birrell, how to you
2:41:02
know, so it's getting more and
more complicated. So if people
2:41:04
would like to behave, motivated
by moral points and pitch the
2:41:09
moral issue. So you have to
prepare yourself spiritually. So
2:41:14
that's what I have done to make
a decision, knowing that bad
2:41:18
reaction will come from the vast
and process whatsoever. But
2:41:23
being convinced that this is the
only way. And this is the duty I
2:41:26
have to do now, because I remain
the only western leader. I'm the
2:41:30
only investor leader now, who
can have a chance to talk at the
2:41:35
same time it Kyiv and Moscow,
all the others who've created a
2:41:39
situation when they have no
chance to die to communicate
2:41:43
with the two main actors,
especially with the Russians.
2:41:45
Adam Curry: So here's this
horrible, horrible guy who
2:41:48
invokes the God card like
Blessed are the peacemakers like
2:41:51
oh, I didn't know I gotta go
make some peace. I'm uniquely
2:41:54
positioned to do this. So our
roving reporter with his mic on
2:42:00
a stick has three questions. So
2:42:01
Unknown: my first purpose was to
put the questions directly three
2:42:05
questions, basically, the first
president, what do you think
2:42:09
about the peace plans, which are
already on the table? You know,
2:42:13
what the, what the Ukrainian
assassin king what America
2:42:16
starts thinking? What shouldn't
have global peace meeting clip?
2:42:22
What is your position on
2:42:24
Adam Curry: this guy just like,
hey, Putin? What's your position
2:42:28
on that? What do you think? I
mean, you know what everyone
2:42:30
else thinks this is so normal,
such a normal kind of good thing
2:42:35
to do. And
2:42:37
Unknown: what is your position
on the Chinese proposal as well?
2:42:39
You know, and what do you think
about the frame and the process,
2:42:43
how these peace talks are going
God and you are not invited? So
2:42:46
what do you think about it? So
that was the first to get to
2:42:49
know to clarify what is his
understanding of his editor,
2:42:54
it's obvious that real
negotiations cannot happen
2:42:58
without the involvement of both
parties. So whatever they are
2:43:01
doing without him, it means
nothing, which is quite logical.
2:43:05
Anyway, the second he was very
clear that they have already
2:43:08
reacted to the first cranium
position and proposal, which
2:43:14
happened 2022 April. And what
the reaction was, in a, in a
2:43:21
document of the Russians today,
is still relevant. So on that
2:43:25
basis, they are still ready to
communicate and negotiate and so
2:43:28
on, on the Chinese plan, Chinese
Brazilian plan, he said that
2:43:33
they consider everything given
that was, so that was the first.
2:43:36
Adam Curry: So the 2022
agreement that Boris Johnson
2:43:40
went into stop is still on the
table. That I think that's kind
2:43:45
of interesting to know.
2:43:50
John C Dvorak: So this is the
podcast, you're talking
2:43:53
Adam Curry: now. That's our bond
talking. That's that's Orban.
2:44:00
He's I misstated. He's the one
that asked Putin three
2:44:03
questions. And he's, he's
telling us what, what really
2:44:06
went down. All Deutsch of Allah
gives us, you know, represented
2:44:12
doo doo. So, now he continues
with the other answers to his
2:44:18
questions for Putin.
2:44:19
Unknown: My second question was
president. What how do you see
2:44:24
the chance to have a short
limited piece prior sci fi
2:44:29
earlier than the real
negotiations on peace can start?
2:44:35
And he said he's not optimistic
on that. He's Zelensky said that
2:44:42
he's not optimistic because the
Russians would use it against
2:44:46
the Ukrainians. Putin said that
the Ukrainians would use it
2:44:50
against Russia.
2:44:51
And what did you say to him?
2:44:52
I said, let's consider I
understand your argument. But
2:44:56
think about it. Everyday is
important. because we are under
2:45:00
the pressure of the time because
the dying young people, but at
2:45:05
least think about it don't
Don't, don't throw it away. Just
2:45:09
think about it next time we can
continue. And the third question
2:45:12
was I raise the President, do
you have a vision? Or even a
2:45:18
plan? How will the security
architecture of Europe look like
2:45:24
when the war is over? So not
just to concentrate on today,
2:45:29
but how the future, which could
be the surrounding and
2:45:33
arrangement for one or two
generations of our kids, and
2:45:37
grandkids? So what is your
planet said, we have a detailed
2:45:40
plan. So we know how we imagined
the relationship between Russia
2:45:46
and European Union and the West,
and how we should set it up.
2:45:50
It's too early to speak about
it. But they are ready to do
2:45:54
that on that.
2:45:56
Adam Curry: So the final clip,
is he's going to say, look, this
2:46:00
is what I achieved. And it seems
like Putin may even be open to
2:46:05
some NATO expansion or some
changes.
2:46:09
Unknown: I mean, your mission
this week is a case study in
2:46:12
surprise. I mean, you have
totally wrong footed the
2:46:16
European Union. Some of your
colleagues have twittered. They
2:46:21
have commented on that there was
a huge reaction in the media.
2:46:26
What is your essential takeaway
from these two meetings? Are we
2:46:31
closer to peace? What is your
assessment of the results of
2:46:37
these two meetings? That's
2:46:38
first reaction on the comments.
So guys, I understand that you
2:46:44
are not used to that kind of
behavior of the rotating
2:46:48
President of the European Union.
But if we consider this issue,
2:46:52
from a bureaucratic eyeglass,
and bureaucratic approach,
2:46:56
nothing will happen. Because
peace cannot be generated by
2:47:00
bureaucrats. It's impossible.
Okay, bureaucrats are useful.
2:47:04
They have to work Hi
representative, head of the
2:47:07
commission, and so on European
institution, bureaucratic of
2:47:10
good, but it's not enough to
reverse you have to understand
2:47:14
that piece. We are not born by
itself, be something which must
2:47:18
be done. Many people have to
work for it. And only if you
2:47:23
don't do that, there'll be no
peace. If you'd like to change
2:47:26
the bet for good, we have to do
something, this is the first and
2:47:30
then we realize that we have to
do something, it cannot be
2:47:33
bureaucratic. It must be
political, because only
2:47:36
political leaders can manage to
find a way to short persuade to
2:47:40
the piece. So what is the first
step? First step is reopen the
2:47:46
diplomatic relationship and
reopen the communication
2:47:50
channel. That's happened today.
I
2:47:52
Adam Curry: think this guy can
get something done if they don't
2:47:54
kill him.
2:47:58
John C Dvorak: Well, he's
obviously aware of the problems
2:48:00
with him getting killed, or he
wouldn't have taken that
2:48:03
circumvention tour to Poland to
get his jet into Russia. Yep. So
2:48:09
he's not an idiot. Well,
interesting. What to make of
2:48:13
that but okay,
2:48:14
Adam Curry: well, I think what
we make of it is that the media
2:48:17
and the bureaucracy as he says,
don't want peace, they want war.
2:48:22
They just want to continue war.
2:48:24
John C Dvorak: And the media
likes war. It's you know, self
2:48:27
scrapers, ratings, rating, and
there's they even though they're
2:48:30
not taking advantage of full
advantage of it, so there's not
2:48:33
even milking it as well as they
could. So that's makes you
2:48:36
wonder what's wrong with them,
like idiots.
2:48:39
Adam Curry: They're humans like
throwing money away, you know
2:48:42
who their overlords are.
2:48:44
John C Dvorak: And so the so the
only people really benefiting
2:48:47
isn't even the media is is them
arms makers.
2:48:51
Adam Curry: And Deutsche Avella
uncloaked. A little bit about
2:48:55
some this is short about
something we already knew, of
2:48:57
course, what is really at play
here. Russia's
2:49:00
Unknown: war on Ukraine has
raged on now for over two years,
2:49:05
and the cost of both sides have
been immense. One of the
2:49:07
possible spoils however, a
victory could also be what is in
2:49:12
the ground. Ukraine has huge
deposits of lithium, that's an
2:49:16
important metal for batteries
that power electric cars or
2:49:20
smartphone fighting near
2:49:21
Adam Curry: the Ukrainian
village of Kota hobo earlier
2:49:24
this year, above the ground
towns that have seen dozens of
2:49:28
tank battles since the war
began. What you don't see is the
2:49:32
hundreds of millions of dollars
of lithium, that geologists say
2:49:36
it's likely underground Ukraine
has significant deposits of
2:49:40
natural resources that could
make Russia's war financially
2:49:43
pay off. In addition to lithium,
there are significant oil, gas
2:49:47
metal ores, rare earth and
precious metals buried beneath
2:49:50
the soil, potentially worth more
than $20 trillion 20 trillion.
2:49:57
Well, I
2:49:57
John C Dvorak: find that hard
number hard to believe but it if
2:50:00
there's housing and all the rest
on top it's probably a good idea
2:50:04
to have a ward that way you wipe
out the housing without having
2:50:07
to bring in the bulldozers and
and you without having to to
2:50:11
evict people you know you have
to move sort of because we can
2:50:14
there's a lithium mine right
under you that by the way you're
2:50:18
part owner of because you owned
the mineral rights property in
2:50:22
many countries and Well too bad
you're been killed. I just
2:50:27
Adam Curry: love how they make
it look like that's what Putin
2:50:29
is after putting and go gets
from China. It's what you're
2:50:32
after. The European Union is
after the Western nations the
2:50:37
Western alliance NATO they're
after that they already took all
2:50:41
the farmland it's like come on.
2:50:46
John C Dvorak: But then we
needed more than Russia does.
2:50:49
Yeah, they're not showing the
dead the dead Russia is not like
2:50:51
a big lithium operation need to
show where the dead
2:50:54
Adam Curry: kids on TV that'll
get people thinking. Start to
2:50:59
dry. Yeah, and the lone shoe and
rebel. Now that's the best.
2:51:03
Yeah. Isn't rebel shoe and mud.
shoe and rubble and mud? Yeah.
2:51:08
Preferably with a footstool in
it that people. Hey, did you
2:51:15
hear the latest side effects of
Wigo V and ozempic and other
2:51:20
weight loss drugs GLP. One drugs
soon to be on Medicare Did you
2:51:24
hear makes you blind
2:51:26
Unknown: weight loss drugs
ozempic. And we'll go V are
2:51:29
being linked to a rare form of
blindness. A new study found
2:51:33
patients taking those drugs at a
higher risk of developing the
2:51:36
condition which is caused by a
loss of blood flow to the optic
2:51:39
nerve. But scientists say more
research is needed to determine
2:51:43
if the drugs actually cause the
eye condition. The drugs makers
2:51:46
as patients safety is a top
priority and it's taking the
2:51:49
study seriously.
2:51:50
Adam Curry: Oh yeah, we're all
over it. So this This condition
2:51:53
is called non which you spell na
i o n nine, nine, I can't really
2:51:59
pronounce it nine. And here's a
little longer explanation of
2:52:03
what could happen to you medical
loss.
2:52:05
Unknown: Today a new study finds
some popular weight loss and
2:52:08
diabetes drugs may lead to a
condition that causes a form of
2:52:11
blindness.
2:52:12
That condition is known as non
it's a type of eye stroke that
2:52:15
causes sudden painless vision
loss in one eye study published.
2:52:20
Adam Curry: I like that. It's
painless, though. Don't worry,
2:52:23
it's sudden, but it's painless,
2:52:25
Unknown: painless vision loss.
In one eye study published in
2:52:28
the medical journal JAMA
ophthalmology found non and some
2:52:31
patients taking semaglutide
medications like ozempic and
2:52:34
mugabi. The drugs are prescribed
to treat diabetes and help
2:52:37
weight loss studies showed
people with diabetes are four
2:52:40
times more likely to be at no be
diagnosed with non if they're
2:52:44
taking a prescription.
semaglutide overweight or obese
2:52:48
people take the medication are
seven times more likely to
2:52:51
experience the condition. Non is
rare occurring and just 10 out
2:52:55
of 100,000 people but don't
worry, it's
2:52:57
Adam Curry: painless. So there's
2:52:59
John C Dvorak: one out of 10,000
is another way of putting it.
2:53:03
Adam Curry: I don't want to be
one.
2:53:05
John C Dvorak: Yeah, I said
numbers. Yeah, it's risky. It's
2:53:09
very
2:53:10
Adam Curry: risky. Nobody wants
that. Do you have anything else?
2:53:16
Yeah, I
2:53:16
John C Dvorak: wanted a couple
of loads just to see this some
2:53:18
international stuff. I thought
this was weird. This is the the
2:53:22
what's going on in Greece, the
48 hour workweek it's goes
2:53:26
against everybody's trends.
2:53:30
Adam Curry: Oh, here it is. Yes,
I heard about this to
2:53:32
Unknown: Greece has implemented
a six day working week and a
2:53:35
move to enhance productivity and
employment.
2:53:37
The regulation was enacted on
July 1 defies the global trend
2:53:42
of companies considering a
shorter work week,
2:53:44
employees of private businesses
offering 24/7 services will have
2:53:48
the option to work an extra two
hours per day or an extra eight
2:53:52
hour shift. This is
2:53:53
according to new legislation
passed last year as part of
2:53:56
broader labor laws.
2:53:58
Adam Curry: Now, I heard about
this and I thought is that bad
2:54:02
thing? And is Greece trying to
act literally work
2:54:05
John C Dvorak: to get it
together is what they're trying
2:54:07
to do. And it turns out that
their lack of productivity can
2:54:10
be corrected a bit sound making
people work more?
2:54:14
Adam Curry: Yes. Sounds like a
good idea to me. Hey, we all got
2:54:17
it when you're
2:54:18
John C Dvorak: going in the
other direction. You're a
2:54:19
socialist communist. Because
you're working less 30 hours a
2:54:23
week. Yeah.
2:54:25
Adam Curry: For days or days.
Wake up and go to the beach.
2:54:28
Read my book. Yes.
2:54:30
John C Dvorak: Beach, read your
book, drink your coffee, read
2:54:31
your book and then bitch and
moan. Yeah, perfect. The other
2:54:34
thing is Duke Foley sent me a
clip from Tik Tok clip, of
2:54:41
course, but these these people
should go back and get copies of
2:54:46
the hot shots movies from the
90s where you had this guy
2:54:50
President bench bench was that
was
2:54:52
Adam Curry: that with Charlie
Sheen? Was he in hot shots?
2:54:56
John C Dvorak: I don't know he
might have been but the guy who
2:54:58
played the president was was the
the old droid bridge bridges?
2:55:04
Yeah, yeah Lloyd Bridges played
a Biden know even this clip and
2:55:10
you can get some Biden out of
it. This is the President Benson
2:55:13
clip and it just said when you I
have to get these via black
2:55:17
shade now have a copy of the
2:55:19
Adam Curry: Charlie Sheen was in
it. I was right.
2:55:21
John C Dvorak: What was he Okay,
well, these were the wood part
2:55:24
of that this was during that era
of airplane and all these crazy
2:55:28
movies that were all satirical
and funny. And this clip is got
2:55:34
disguised as it is Biden.
2:55:37
Unknown: Do you remember those
early 90s comedy movies, hot
2:55:40
shots and hot shots? Part two?
It's uncanny but the admiral and
2:55:44
then later the President Benson
is like a prediction of Joe
2:55:47
Biden. Check them out.
2:55:49
What if Edwards gets wind of
this we'll use it against you in
2:55:52
the campaign. He'll try to prove
that you're incompetent
2:55:55
I can prove that as well as he
can there's no one better cookie
2:56:05
adult looks like we've got our
saboteur that your wife sir.
2:56:13
So it is just gets his own was
not feeling so well. Today. My
2:56:17
intestines were removed during
action and the North Atlantic
2:56:20
took a torpedo in the lower
abdomen and they replaced every
2:56:23
foot of my bowel with him. Clogs
Reshmi I managed to Tojo Senator
2:56:31
Edwards by fellow Americans and
our millions of illegal aliens.
2:56:36
It seems like only yesterday I
was strafing so many of your
2:56:40
homes and here I am today
begging you not to make such
2:56:42
good cars. Excuse me just second

bastion house. Benson No, you're
2:56:59
not seeing them on television.
You know Romain about my
2:57:02
heights.
2:57:05
Adam Curry: Duke Foley brings
the heat and I have to say
2:57:08
without a doubt. Perfect,
perfect. That's him. People
2:57:17
should
2:57:17
John C Dvorak: dig those movies
up and get a kick out. I predict
2:57:19
those type of movies are really
missed. They're missed.
2:57:22
Adam Curry: It was predictive
programming, too. A little too
2:57:25
early. But it was there. Yeah,
I'd say it was there. Well, that
2:57:30
was good.
2:57:30
Unknown: I got hairy legs. I'm
gonna show my school by God to
2:57:34

3:14:04
Adam Curry: it always sounds
better when you do it. I think
3:14:07
here's what I have
3:14:08
John C Dvorak: crack on. crack
on.
3:14:11
Adam Curry: I know.
underwhelming. I know. Here's
3:14:13
another one
3:14:14
Unknown: question mark question
mark question mark profit.
3:14:18
Adam Curry: This one I think is
the winner. Our amygdalas are on
3:14:22
fire. Okay. Good news. It's
3:14:28
Unknown: good advice. John seems
to give the day for the
3:14:33
Adam Curry: tip of the day which
will not be a Costco tip because
3:14:36
they're now in the boycott. They
want to boycott in
3:14:38
John C Dvorak: cost and I had a
great Costco tip too. Oh Well
3:14:41
too bad Costco
3:14:42
Adam Curry: boys. You screwed it
up.
3:14:45
John C Dvorak: So there's a
product I recommend I want you
3:14:48
know, I've taught recommend over
the years these different kinds
3:14:50
of high end usually synthetic
lubricants and ranch hand.
3:14:55
Adam Curry: Yes, ranch hand was
always a fabulous
3:14:58
John C Dvorak: product as a
couple other spray ones. The
3:15:00
problem is ranch and I'll tell
you right now as you like if you
3:15:02
spray on a door jamb or
something, and just a, just a
3:15:06
miniscule amount gets on the
floor.
3:15:10
Adam Curry: Oh, you'll kill your
Yeah, you're slipping and
3:15:12
sliding forever.
3:15:13
John C Dvorak: Yeah, and you
can't wash it off. It's
3:15:15
unbelievable. But I do have
another product that's a little
3:15:17
more direct and it's sold as a
clock. Clock lubricant, but it's
3:15:25
useful for especially for key
holes and door hinges and pretty
3:15:32
much anything that needs
lubrication, always use WD 40
3:15:35
For that, Nah, don't use WD 40.
That's liquid bearing, it's on.
3:15:41
It's a cot it's at Costco, it's
on Amazon. It's called Liquid
3:15:45
bearing. And it's for it's for
grandfather clocks, but it's
3:15:48
really for everything is one of
these super slippery synthetic
3:15:54
oils but it comes into a bottle
that has a little like a needle
3:15:58
on the end and you can put just
one drop somewhere
3:16:00
Adam Curry: Oh bearing AR ing
liquid and bury a
3:16:04
John C Dvorak: bearing like the
ball bearing oh okay bearing and
3:16:07
it is it's expensive at 18 bucks
but it is it lasts I've had this
3:16:12
bottle for 10 years that lasts
forever because you don't use
3:16:15
much with the ranch and you
spray it all or you waste a lot
3:16:18
of it. This is a terrific
product I recommend people
3:16:22
should check it out. It's called
Liquid bearing. It's about 18
3:16:24
bucks.
3:16:25
Adam Curry: Nothing like a
lubricant. Tip of the Day from
3:16:27
Johnson.
