0:27
I've concluded that Shannon Bream is no good. I'm John C.
0:30
Dvorak skill.
0:35
Adam Curry: Well, it's two women you don't like in a row on the
0:38
show. Who's the other one? Now? You said Kamala Harris is full
0:43
of crap.
0:44
John C Dvorak: She is.
0:46
Adam Curry: I'm just saying what's what did Shannon Bream
0:49
do?
0:50
John C Dvorak: Is this you know? I didn't really I kind of always
0:53
sensed this for a while but it's been getting worse from Fox. Is
0:56
Unknown: she from Fox? Yes. She's
0:57
John C Dvorak: the fox. He's a pretty blonde. She's She's 50
1:00
She looks 20 Good looking. well structured fade. good looking
1:06
girl. Period.
1:07
Adam Curry: What you said well structured babe, is that we said
1:11
that I hated that
1:12
John C Dvorak: race. overall structure face.
1:15
Adam Curry: That's better. Better well structured. Hey,
1:18
baby. You've got a well structured face. I'm gonna try
1:21
it tonight. I'm trying tonight. See how that works.
1:24
John C Dvorak: Oh, baby, no, no, as a compliment. You've got
1:27
somebody that to their face. Well, structured face baby is a
1:30
well structured fate. Well, first, I noticed that some time
1:33
ago when she said when when Trump got indicted by Fannie
1:38
Willis and then the New York and then all at once you get the you
1:43
know, 96 indictments all at once. And they're bitching about
1:46
as one of the shows that she was on? And she says, Oh, I don't
1:50
think that was coordinated.
1:54
Unknown: Really, there's no evidence
1:56
John C Dvorak: is coordinated, even though they had people
1:58
going in and out of the White House, the whole thing? So I
2:00
thought, well, that's kind of suspicious. Then I watched this
2:03
morning. She She does a show on Sunday. That is distributed on
2:06
all the fox stations. And she has a sidekick that comes on she
2:12
interviews this guy Chris Murphy, who's a Democrat. And
2:15
Chris Murphy says stuff like Yeah, well, you know, the the
2:20
immigration rates go way down since Trump because countless
2:23
done his fabulous job at the border. No pushback. And then
2:29
later in this show, she Oh, yeah. Okay, well, that's
2:31
interesting. But we have other numbers are those numbers are
2:34
wrong. Okay. So then it says he signs off. He says, Yeah, well,
2:40
you know, there's the difference is gonna be between Campbell and
2:42
Trump is Trump's gonna be the dictators on day one, day one.
2:46
And she she says nothing. And then she says that he's gonna
2:50
implement agenda 25 as she says nothing. It's like, okay, this
2:56
is bad. You know, I
2:57
Adam Curry: had a thought I had a thought this morning. I know,
3:01
as a standby, everybody had a thought. So all these cable news
3:06
channels, Fox, of course, clearly run by Democrats. I
3:10
mean, just look at the look at the
3:11
John C Dvorak: Murdoch. Kid kid the kid. Yeah.
3:16
Adam Curry: The reason why they're on the air is because of
3:20
the carriage fees. Right. Largely Well, I mean, that's,
3:25
that's the main, that's the main income. So say you have 60
3:31
million households. On cable net, that's probably low, but
3:35
let's just let's say 50 million, say 50 million. And you get one
3:39
buck for your channel. And I don't know do you think every
3:43
channel makes about a buck? I mean, cable is expensive these
3:46
days? You
3:47
John C Dvorak: know, I I know people that have these numbers.
3:49
I should probably look into it. If we have some real numbers.
3:52
Let's look
3:53
Adam Curry: into it. Because why couldn't the curry divorce
3:56
Communications Group? Why couldn't we start a cable
4:00
channel? Lobby Comcast lobby all these other guys. And and just
4:05
get a channel? And then you know, we'll we'll get somewhere
4:09
between 20 and $50 million a year. And we'll just pay a whole
4:13
bunch of podcasters. You know, we'll, we'll I'll turn the
4:17
camera on in that. Hey, will you turn the camera ugly? I'll turn
4:23
the camera on. You know, I'm sure we can get nick the rat to
4:26
turn the camera on. Darren O'Neill and we could just do the
4:29
no agenda stream. We could divvy it up. Everybody wins. Why not?
4:33
I mean, how hard can it be to launch a cable channel? In times
4:38
when everyone knows there's no reason to watch cable anymore.
4:42
John C Dvorak: Well, there's that we witnessed this whole
4:46
process with tech TV. Yeah, well and with span it was mostly they
4:50
had nothing but trouble getting people to carry because it was
4:56
Adam Curry: tokers, hey we have a whole network of producers As
5:00
I'm sure some of them will hike the skirt.
5:03
John C Dvorak: Well, I mean, MTV did it by saying, you know, I
5:06
want my MTV dad that whole idea. Yeah, jingle emerged. I want my
5:13
MTV.
5:13
Adam Curry: Yeah, yeah, we can do that worked. Yeah, yeah, it's
5:17
doable. Let's do it. I think it's it's a possibility. I mean,
5:20
just why not? Why not? The cable companies are starved for for
5:26
reasons to keep people. I'm sure we could get someone to like
5:31
maybe Joe maybe Joe milk. Yeah, you know, I'll pick up an extra
5:34
couple mil from these boys. Don't you think? Well, if
5:39
John C Dvorak: you if you could get Joe Yeah, that would be that
5:43
would be hot because then you could do the whole thing. That
5:45
would be hot. Yeah, it'd be high. Yeah, it'd be great.
5:50
Adam Curry: I talked to Joe this morning.
5:52
John C Dvorak: Oh, that's where you to go in. Okay. Oh,
5:55
Adam Curry: no, no, no, I wasn't going there at all, just by
5:58
coincidence. Because what did Joe have to say? Well, we were
6:03
talking about his awesome special that he did last night.
6:07
Oh,
6:07
John C Dvorak: this was the live. Yeah, how was it? I didn't
6:10
get this. Oh,
6:11
Adam Curry: it's funny. It's funny in it. But you know, what
6:14
a standard is not bad. No, it's a great comic. The what is so
6:19
outstanding about is he did it live. And that most comedians
6:24
don't do that with their specials. They don't really want
6:28
to do something live. Because you know, you can sweeten it
6:31
later. You can drop the bits that didn't work best, which is
6:35
what they do. Yeah. Well, Joe didn't do they just went live
6:38
for like, an hour and 10 minutes. It was very, you want
6:41
to hear a little bit. There's a little bit here. I don't know if
6:43
you've probably seen this. You see this bit that's on?
6:45
John C Dvorak: I didn't Well, unless you did it before. I've
6:47
seen his old Act. Now this this is
6:49
Adam Curry: a bit from the special peer check has short,
6:51
Unknown: you know, it's just good to see everybody having a
6:53
good time. The country is almost back to normal before world war
6:55
three. COVID was just so strange. We lost a lot of people
7:02
during COVID and most of them are still alive
7:12
lot of people that I don't fuck
7:14
with anymore. Before COVID I would have told you that
7:17
vaccines are the most important invention in human history.
7:21
After COVID and like I don't think we went to the moon. think
7:26
Michelle Obama's got a dig. I think pence again is round. I
7:29
think there's
7:30
direct energy weapons and
7:36
honestly, I'm just kidding. I don't think Michelle Obama's
7:38
gonna dig but I believe all that other
7:43
Adam Curry: kind of almost projecting Bobcat Goldthwait
7:46
there for a second little bit of Sam Kinison. Maybe almost.
7:51
John C Dvorak: There was something. It was good. Yeah. He
7:54
was an energy. He's a little different than when I saw him
7:57
before. Yeah, he was. He was a little hyped.
7:59
Adam Curry: Yeah, he's an Are you kidding me the live show and
8:02
I can understand that. I can understand it. Yeah, well, okay.
8:06
And just think about it. I mean, we could also we could do music.
8:10
We could throw some value for value music up there.
8:13
John C Dvorak: Yeah, kinds of calculations. No big
8:16
Adam Curry: deal. Easy. Easy peasy. Yeah, it will be alright.
8:19
It's a deal. Let's do it. Okay. All right. Yeah. Does anyone
8:22
know how to start? Anybody out there. So I went to Frisco.
8:28
Friday, Friday night.
8:30
John C Dvorak: Yeah. Frisco, Texas Frisco, Texas. Yes. And
8:35
for is that from you? Well,
8:37
Adam Curry: I flew. So it was an hour and 20 minutes. But it's if
8:41
you drive 9090
8:42
John C Dvorak: miles, 100 miles
8:46
Adam Curry: through the air? That's a good question. No, it's
8:48
more than that. Now, because we're doing about 190 miles an
8:53
hour. So it's much more than that. It's too far to drive a
8:59
five and a half hours to Dallas, basically. So after the podcast
9:06
in 2.0 podcast went over Gillespie airport, which is five
9:09
minutes from the House Beautiful. Edie the 28th to hold
9:12
these are the oh, wait
9:13
John C Dvorak: a minute, what? You should probably tell people
9:16
why you went to Frisco to that's,
9:18
Adam Curry: um, that's coming. That's coming after the ED part.
9:23
So I always have a Safety Pilot go with me, who was instructor
9:28
from the flight school where I rent the plane. It's also handy
9:32
because he'll bring the plane up from Bernie it's all gassed up
9:36
to all the annoying stuff. Yet We'll even handle the luggage.
9:40
It's 28 Now these kids are so young. And you know, so I'm
9:44
chatting with him and said so how long before we lose you
9:48
because I don't think I've flown more than three times with any
9:52
with any safety pilot because all these kids get sucked up by
9:54
the airlines. He says Ah, now it's gonna be a little longer
9:58
for me because they have over hired He says all of these
10:03
airlines mainly because they can't get any new planes. Now
10:07
spirit, and I think Alaska and he's like they've over hired
10:11
have over hired. So I just thought that was a little
10:13
interesting little tidbit. So we went up we were invited to
10:17
attend the closing gala evening of the citizens defending
10:25
freedom Conference, which is organized by the remnant
10:30
Alliance.
10:31
John C Dvorak: Do they defend freedom? Yes, most
10:35
Adam Curry: definitely. I would say that I went boots on the
10:39
ground inside the Christian nationalist movement was
10:43
amazing. So this conference was about 250, pastors, preachers
10:50
and priests. It was, and they had all these, I didn't go to
10:54
entity sessions, of course, but they went to all these sessions,
10:58
to motivate them to speak into the culture not avoided. And I
11:02
was kind of expecting, like a vote Trump thing. But it wasn't
11:06
that at all, actually. And about 30%, maybe about 30% of these
11:10
pastors were black. And yeah, that was, I thought that was,
11:16
yeah, it was more than representative of the
11:18
population, which was interesting. Speaking there were
11:22
Laura Logan, the neighbor, Michael G invite,
11:27
John C Dvorak: you know, I
11:28
Adam Curry: was invited by our pastor. But it's it's all it's
11:32
all the
11:33
John C Dvorak: Laura didn't invite you, Laura. She didn't
11:37
invite you. She
11:37
Adam Curry: would have budget new hours come in. Now. But you
11:41
know, and I have to talk to her. Because if you have Laura Logan,
11:47
and she's going to speak because she was speaker. What would you
11:50
want to hear from her? Stories? Yeah. What kind of stories about
11:55
what about what topic about working with in
11:57
John C Dvorak: the media and how collected is exactly? Yeah, of
12:01
course.
12:01
Adam Curry: No. Instead,
12:02
John C Dvorak: she has an event like that. You want to hear how
12:04
screwed up things? Yes, yes.
12:08
Yeah, of course.
12:08
Adam Curry: Instead, she talks about, about the child
12:13
trafficking. It was a super bummer. No, I don't like it. Oh,
12:19
wow. Yeah,
12:20
John C Dvorak: that would be that's a downer man, downer man,
12:23
lay man, that's a downer.
12:25
Adam Curry: But also, you know, I've done public speaking,
12:27
you've done public speaking. You want to speak about something
12:30
you're you're very familiar with that you're really good at, you
12:34
know, that you're that you're well versed in. So I don't know
12:37
how to approach it with her. But I think I need to just
12:40
John C Dvorak: say maybe she'll hear the podcast. No, she
12:42
doesn't listen to it. No,
12:43
Adam Curry: no, she just uses the name because he doesn't
12:46
listen to it.
12:48
John C Dvorak: That's right. Yes.
12:51
Adam Curry: She loves the name. And then also speaking was
12:56
Michael Flynn, who by the way, it's Lieutenant General Michael
12:59
Flynn. I didn't really realize that there was like, General
13:03
Flynn was Lieutenant General. Isn't that that's lower than a
13:06
general? Yeah, it's
13:08
John C Dvorak: lower. Yeah.
13:09
Adam Curry: Is that just like an executive, a senior vice
13:11
president to star? I have no idea of the stars work. And
13:15
yeah,
13:16
John C Dvorak: there's one, two and three and four. And the top
13:19
guy is, you know, the general. He's the real general. The other
13:22
guys are Lieutenant General. Oh,
13:24
Adam Curry: you could just be a two star general. I thought you
13:26
have Lieutenant Joe. You
13:27
John C Dvorak: could do that, too.
13:28
Adam Curry: So he's a two star general.
13:30
John C Dvorak: I well, I don't I can't say I'm a look. He could
13:33
be three. I don't know. So, in general, I'm sure someone will
13:37
tell us. Someone will tell. I'm not even gonna look it up
13:39
though. The chat room will tell us exactly how many stars
13:42
Lieutenant General has. And
13:45
Adam Curry: now he was there. He he and Laura they kind of
13:49
traveled together. They do a lot of speed. They do. Yeah, they
13:51
do. Well, her husband Joe used to work for Flynn. Oh, yeah.
13:58
DIA, these are all spooks. So So Joe comes over to our tastes.
14:05
Yeah. And he's very, very hyper. Come on, you got to say hello to
14:11
General Flynn. General Flynn. Come on. Come on, come on. Come
14:13
on. Come on. Come on. Come
14:14
Unknown: on. Come on.
14:17
John C Dvorak: Give shot like a cat occurred to
14:19
Adam Curry: anybody who knows Joe will be like, That's Joe.
14:22
That sounds exactly like Joe. Yeah. Okay. And we go over like
14:30
a picture a new picture. And you know, and Flynn is they're
14:33
basically just being inundated by people the whole time. You
14:36
know, taking pictures with him. Yeah. He's got what he does.
14:39
He's got his tuxedo on. And then we line up for a picture. And
14:44
John C Dvorak: then Joseph asked where Putin was looking around,
14:46
so that would,
14:47
Adam Curry: I mean, I barely had time to thank him for his
14:50
service. But Joe is like a General John Adam creep
14:56
headbangers ball, and Flynn looks at me uh huh. Excellent.
15:00
What headbangers ball. What? Of all the things Joe could have
15:04
said about me, it's like hey, headbangers ball look like,
15:11
okay, who's the lawyer? Because my suit on? And I think he's
15:18
there because well, now that I think about it, you know, two
15:23
movies were also being promoted. I think during the sessions. One
15:26
is the into the light, or out of the shadows, whatever it is.
15:30
That's the very controversial child trafficking movie. That's
15:34
probably why Laura was talking about that. And Flynn has a
15:37
there's a documentary about him, which is out. I haven't seen it.
15:44
But at the end, Charlie Kirk did the keynote. Yeah, he's the he's
15:50
the guy from turning point USA. Yes. Holy crap. That guy's
15:54
impressive. Yeah, he's
15:56
John C Dvorak: a good speaker. He's,
15:59
Adam Curry: like 32 or 3333. Very, very, very impressive guy.
16:06
I mean,
16:06
John C Dvorak: he's got he's got a high IQ and he's got a good
16:09
base, and he has good style. He's he knows where how to
16:12
speak. Oh,
16:13
Adam Curry: yeah. And he's a seven feet tall. I had no idea
16:16
like, well, you kind of told you. 10, you know, and again, it
16:21
was the whole and pretty much what you said. He was saying,
16:24
hey, Christians, you don't vote. She got to go out and vote. But
16:30
his main focus was on how churches fit it was kind of it
16:33
was cool, because
16:34
John C Dvorak: he's so Kirk picked up on the on the Trump
16:37
thing. It's interesting. He did. Yeah, he
16:39
Adam Curry: did. But he didn't say go out and vote for Trump.
16:42
He didn't say that.
16:43
John C Dvorak: Now, of course, you don't do that. I don't have
16:45
to. But what do you what? Why bother? You don't have to do
16:48
that. Yeah, come on. Hello.
16:50
Adam Curry: But what he what he was saying, and I liked you
16:52
know, you're so there's 250 pastors, priests and preachers,
16:55
and he's like, You guys failed during COVID. He said, You
16:58
really fail. You'd let them close your church. And it was
17:03
good. It was really impressive. So and then that was it. There
17:08
was nothing nothing really else. You know, it's not wasn't as
17:11
scary as I thought it would be.
17:14
John C Dvorak: They're gonna be scary. Oh, it was Christian. It
17:16
would be boring. Christian nationalists,
17:18
Adam Curry: man. Come on that that was them. That was the
17:23
Christian nationalist right there. And he people on stage
17:27
like, you know, people introducing people. I'm a proud
17:31
Christian nationalist, they can call me that if they want.
17:36
John C Dvorak: If he you know, that would work fine. I think
17:38
that would work as a as an intro. If you then pull the gun
17:41
out and shot in the eye. Now, it'd be the way
17:45
Adam Curry: to go. Everybody was packing. I'll tell you that.
17:47
That's for sure. A lot of guns, a lot of guns. A lot of pastors
17:51
with guns. Pretty funny.
17:54
John C Dvorak: Sounds like the event should have been called
17:55
pastors with guns. Anyway, that's you didn't really get
18:01
anything. You didn't get any real show materials that you got
18:05
to meet Flynn.
18:06
Adam Curry: Yeah. Well, that was that was that was the show. I
18:08
mean, other than I investigated the Christian nationalists, and
18:13
it was pretty, pretty tame, you know, was like, Hey, wake up,
18:19
people. Your churches are failing. I thought that was a
18:21
pretty, pretty good message. That was Charlie Kirk, if you
18:24
get a chance to see that guy talk. He's good. He's really
18:27
good. In fact, I was looking around and I got
18:31
John C Dvorak: used to it it did that debt conference. He does he
18:34
Adam Curry: does them all over the all over the country. Yeah,
18:37
like any
18:38
John C Dvorak: Turning Point conference that he did I have a
18:40
clip from it that I missed time. Oh, is it an old one I wanted to
18:45
play. Okay. It is or is it as you I got a big list
18:51
unfortunately, from
18:52
Adam Curry: today was an old one. It's
18:55
John C Dvorak: I picked it up since the last show. It's from
18:59
the turning point conference that Trump was at.
19:01
Adam Curry: Oh, yeah. Okay, I gotcha.
19:05
John C Dvorak: And I just thought this was just something
19:07
I'd never I'd never considered it but I actually have
19:11
considered it but it was where's this man?
19:17
Adam Curry: Bro? Are you looking at is it on today's list he

Adam Curry: no, no, no, I don't want to I want to hear what you
19:42
have from turning point. Trump in Atlanta Trump force W's 47
19:48
Whatever that whatever that typo means.
19:53
John C Dvorak: Graham Lebanon Lebanon. You're failing. I am.
19:57
This is a complete Epic epic fail Oh, while you're
20:01
Adam Curry: looking for that I can play a little piece which
20:04
was from Charlie Kirk's podcast. And he had James Lindsay on
20:15
talking about her quote, unburdened by what has been
20:20
John C Dvorak: this is it I have it as unburdened explained,
20:22
people see, oh, okay,
20:24
Adam Curry: let me see if yours is longer. Mine is four seconds
20:27
longer. I don't want to play mine.
20:28
Unknown: The quote is that we can see what can be unburdened
20:33
by what has been, I
20:34
can imagine what can be and be unburdened by what has been, you
20:38
know, what can be unburdened by what has been what can be
20:44
unburdened by what has been that word
20:47
John C Dvorak: salad, or mine's longer because I don't have all
20:50
the bullshit in camera. Here's
20:52
Adam Curry: the short and it's only four seconds. Why, you
20:55
know, I'm
20:55
John C Dvorak: saying no, I don't have she, he just talks on
20:58
mine, he doesn't bring the cat that's four seconds
21:03
Adam Curry: is four seconds, then he goes back to talking.
21:06
John C Dvorak: You should the camera yak, yak yak is only four
21:09
seconds long. Yes.
21:11
Unknown: You know, what can be unburdened by what has been what
21:16
can be, or
21:19
by what has been that word salad or Marxism as Marxism that is,
21:23
in fact, not at all word salad. It's a Marxist incantation. As a
21:27
matter of fact, it's like a spell. So you can see the
21:31
possibility of a world that's unburdened from its own history,
21:34
which is exactly what Mao Zedong did, when he launched the
21:37
campaign of smash the four olds, the four old characteristics of
21:41
Chinese society, they were going to make a new China that was
21:44
going to be unburdened by what had been in the past of China.
21:47
This is what the Soviets the Bolsheviks did when they took
21:50
over power in Russia is that they were going to make the new
21:53
Russia they're gonna make the new man, as a matter of fact,
21:56
people could become unburdened by what had has been so that he
22:00
could see what could possibly be in the terms of a socialist
22:02
utopia. So when she says that, I assume given that her father was
22:07
a Marxist, I assume she knows what she's saying, and I don't
22:11
buy her idiot Valley speak. Stick one bit, I think she's far
22:15
more smart and far more savvy than conservatives have given
22:18
her credit for, and she is an outright Marxist. It is very,
22:22
very clear in her language. And that's what the Democrats want
22:25
to nominate for President right now, which is kind of
22:27
horrifying.
22:28
Adam Curry: I hadn't I had not even considered that until I
22:31
heard this.
22:33
John C Dvorak: Well, when I heard it fell into place,
22:35
because I've heard her to say also, she also paraphrases the
22:41
Marxist idea to each according to their needs, from each
22:47
according to their abilities. Yes, yeah. Well, now we got to
22:50
pay attention to that, which is what equity is all about. In
22:53
other words, your gift, so everyone comes out the same, so
22:55
they have to you need more, you get more. And if you have more
22:59
abilities to give more, you give more, which is a pure Marxist
23:03
thing. In other words, you don't you you know, if you're like
23:06
some moron that doesn't, or refuses to contribute to
23:10
society, but you need a lot of food because you're a big fat
23:12
guy. You have to you have to put up that
23:15
Adam Curry: yeah, or better than ozempic. But
23:18
John C Dvorak: she is definitely a Marxist. And I didn't know
23:21
that specific thing. Once she was he said, it was like, Oh,
23:25
yes, absolutely.
23:27
Adam Curry: Now we got to pay attention, although the coconut
23:29
thing has nothing to do with Marxist, it probably does.
23:33
Somewhere. There's some Marxist stuff in that coconut story.
23:37
John C Dvorak: Though she's a definitely a Marxist, a classic,
23:39
a classic Marxist, which we haven't seen for such a long
23:42
time that we can't recognize that this is the issue. And the
23:46
Democrats don't see it because they're, you know, they're all
23:48
they've been suckered into into believing all this stuff.
23:52
They've been suckered. They're dumb. The Democrats are down,
23:55
but I think we've established this in the show recently. Well,
23:58
Adam Curry: the campaign still seems to consist of zoom calls,
24:02
including Swifties for Kamala, which is coming up and deadheads
24:07
for Kamala.
24:09
John C Dvorak: I, the one I watched was the Jews for camel.
24:12
Oh,
24:13
Adam Curry: do you have any clips from it? No,
24:15
John C Dvorak: I'm not gonna take clips from it. There's just
24:16
a bunch of people fawning all over them. Oh, we got to beat
24:19
Trump and he's gonna be a dictator since day one.
24:24
Adam Curry: You know, I realized something I realized that you
24:27
know, like the Jew haters are mastodon. Yeah, they have a lot
24:32
in common with the with the the pro trans people who all hate
24:36
Jews too. They do. But yeah, they're all protesting bed.
24:41
queers for Palestine.
24:43
John C Dvorak: That's right. They queers for Palestine. Yeah.
24:47
Adam Curry: So these we got a boots on the ground from one of
24:49
our producers from Matt, he says. He sent he sent me a whole
24:54
bunch of links and screenshots. He says, This is bull crap that
24:59
they had fun. 50,000 or 200,000 people on a zoom call. He said
25:04
he did a setup for Tony Robbins in 2020. And it was actually
25:10
just a beta test to see how many participants they could get on
25:14
Zoom. And they so zoom gave him 300 participants who could
25:19
interact with Tony. But there are an additional 20,000
25:23
PARTICIPANT participants that are view only. And the only way
25:27
they could do it and you had these pictures, they had all
25:29
these Macs set up with a propriety proprietary system
25:32
called Canvas from some Canadian company immersive design
25:37
studios, otherwise, it's not possible. You can't the and he
25:42
had some amazing bandwidth brought into this place. He had,
25:46
he had four different providers pulling fiber into the studio
25:49
just for this event now as to get 20,000. So I think it's bowl
25:53
that what they have
25:54
John C Dvorak: is they they're lying. You think these Democrats
25:57
are lying to us?
26:00
Adam Curry: Quite possibly. I think what they're doing is they
26:04
have their celebrities on Zoom, and then they just stream it on
26:07
everything on x and, and YouTube. So it's, it's a point I
26:13
wanted to make. Good. Also, I wanted to say that I think
26:21
considering where the economy seems to be headed, it could
26:27
just be a blip on the radar. I don't know, I haven't listened
26:30
to the latest DH unplug. They may really want to give this to
26:37
Trump. And I would say Kamala is impossible danger at the DNC.
26:45
John C Dvorak: Well, this is I don't think so personally, his
26:48
day to day just elected or by the way over the phone over the
26:51
weekend. Yeah, I
26:51
Adam Curry: have I have a clip homeless, I can
26:53
John C Dvorak: play that. And then we can talk about her
26:55
danger
26:56
Unknown: tonight. Vice President Harris I'm making it nearly
26:58
official, the DNC saying she's won enough delegate votes to
27:01
secure the Democratic nomination in a virtual roll call and
27:05
knowing that we are excited about the future, but we also
27:09
know that we got a lot of work to get there. She's
27:11
expected to be named the nominee on Monday when she'll make
27:14
history as the first woman of color at the top of a major
27:17
party ticket. And tonight new details on her running mate
27:20
search NBC News reporting these six shortlist errs, and Vice
27:24
President will be taking in person meetings with finalists
27:27
over the years so
27:27
Adam Curry: they they I guess they did a zoom call. Why? They
27:31
say vertically should have just said they did a zoom call
27:34
Unknown: NBC News reporting these six shortlist errs, and
27:37
Vice President will be taking in person meetings with finalists
27:40
over the next 72 hours. top contenders include a
27:43
Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro,
27:46
the Vice President has a deeply personal decision to make she
27:49
will make the right decision for her and for the country. Former
27:52
President Trump weighing in today,
27:54
I don't care, let them do whatever they still want to have
27:56
open borders. I think if you pick Shapiro who happens to be
27:59
Jewish, she loses her little Palestinian base.
28:03
Now Republicans note Harris never won a vote in a primary or
28:06
caucus. But Democrats point to record fundraising as evidence
28:10
of party. Harris raking in $310 million in July far outpacing
28:16
the Trump campaign.
28:17
Adam Curry: These are the same people always say what's the
28:21
what's the law that passed that that made corporations into
28:27
people? Citizens United?
28:29
Unknown: Yeah,
28:30
Adam Curry: yeah, it's this just money us we got to get money out
28:34
of politics and now it's evidence that people love her.
28:38
John C Dvorak: That's an interesting I like that. That's
28:40
a good observation. I of course, we don't want to mention or even
28:43
suggest that this money is just being laundered as foreign money
28:47
through coming in from from China from who'd rather
28:50
Adam Curry: Karnes baby it's the Obama Chai calm scam for people
28:53
who
28:54
John C Dvorak: wants to know how this works. It goes to act blue,
28:57
they find a they start attaching names to
29:01
Adam Curry: the split the names up the mountain the money, and
29:05
they
29:05
John C Dvorak: split up the money. So it looks like real
29:07
individuals that are contributing and anyone who's
29:10
looked into it, they go to find these people and they find a lot
29:13
of them are dead. And they find these people and I don't donate
29:20
anything. It's a lot of old ladies and this is a massive
29:26
scam reported scam. It's and it's so obvious you can't get
29:30
that kind of money for somebody like Kamala Harris overnight in
29:34
five days. It just doesn't happen. This is foreign money
29:38
coming into the country to influence peddling money being
29:42
laundered by act blue. Yes. What it is, hey,
29:46
Adam Curry: by the way just to hammer home the point of the
29:51
economy. Everyone's talking about the shoots the Big Mac
29:54
Index, or the Big Mac Index. Oh is it Big Mac buying is down Bub
30:00
Have a I'd like to point out that our hair and hookers index
30:03
has predicted this way before any Big Mac index. And I think
30:08
it should be. It should be an indicator that is taken into
30:10
account. The no agenda hair and hookers index. hair product
30:15
sales down poker and poker prices down girls looking better
30:18
and men I guess for that matter.
30:23
John C Dvorak: Aaron hookers, I liked the term heroin hookers
30:25
index. HH, I
30:27
Adam Curry: bet we should have an HHI indicator tell Horowitz
30:30
to build one.
30:32
John C Dvorak: You can do it. He does those things.
30:34
Adam Curry: That's why I want you guys talking about the Big
30:36
Mac Index.
30:39
John C Dvorak: Yeah, I don't know if we have or not. Okay.
30:42
Well,
30:42
Adam Curry: there it is. So, the oh, this was kind of funny. And
30:51
we know that Trump went on the, you know, did the interview with
30:56
the National Association of Black Journalists. His amazing I
30:59
didn't clip it, but my hatless and like he only stayed for half
31:02
an hour, and then his people pulled him out.
31:06
John C Dvorak: Now, right at the very beginning of the thing,
31:08
which the clip we played last show, yeah, he explains how that
31:12
works. That happened. And they they kept him from coming on
31:16
stage for a half hour, and then he had to leave. And then and
31:19
they blamed him. And then
31:21
Adam Curry: Kara and Scott were saying, you know, because
31:23
they're marketing geniuses, you should know. They should really
31:27
focus on his age that he's too old. He's too old. The very same
31:31
people that kept saying sharpest attack. The flip flop is
31:37
amazing. So on MSNBC, they had to, of course, combat this
31:45
because Trump knows what he's doing when he says Kamala is not
31:48
black blood are people making a big deal about his K Black. Oh,
31:53
that's racist the way he said black, black, black, is racist.
31:59
And, and we know that the black folks in America who most would
32:06
classify as American descendants of slavery, ie a DOS, they're
32:11
not going to fall for another Obama type trick. Because they
32:16
they know that they're going to get screwed in that deal.
32:18
Unless, of course, he selects Wes Moore as their vice
32:21
president, but that's not looking very realistic. So they
32:23
have to, of course, to black people, that Simone Sanders, who
32:28
used to run the campaign for Bernie Sanders, no relation,
32:31
and, and that Princeton professor, what's the guy's
32:34
name? Eddie Glaude. Oh, they have to go and discredit the A
32:40
das Americans. It's been about go,
32:43
Unknown: I tend to agree. So first of all, it's great to be
32:45
back on the weekend again, and see both of you. I think, I
32:48
think I think that's absolutely right. On a certain level, there
32:51
are those who call themselves eight us Americans of African
32:55
descendants of slavery. And they are questioning whether or not
32:59
she's black or not. And I think at the heart of that argument,
33:03
in the heart of what Donald Trump is doing is a basic
33:05
misunderstanding. Donald Trump is a little bit more sinister,
33:07
right? There's this understanding of race in the
33:10
United States that is very, that's very structured that has
33:12
goes back to the one drop rule. There's there's a conflation
33:16
here of racial hierarchy and ethnicity that's going on here.
33:19
In so many ways. I want to just say that this is a distraction.
33:23
And it reveals not only how insidious Donald Trump is, but
33:27
how dumb he is, this is a clown show on so many ways, and I
33:31
don't want the campaign to get caught up in it. I want the
33:34
campaign to continue to continue to pursue his message. We're not
33:38
going back, we're going forward. We don't want to go back to that
33:42
mess. But those of us who have to address it, we need to have
33:45
to address we need to address it with the seriousness of history
33:47
and the seriousness of our moment, I think, but I think
33:50
you're absolutely right, that he's trying to appeal to those
33:52
at those people some so he absolutely is.
33:55
Adam Curry: So first of all, don't send your kids to
33:56
Princeton. Second, he brings in the one drop rule, which is
34:03
total horse crap, and it comes
34:05
John C Dvorak: into play a Showboat. Oh, does it? Well, I
34:09
mean, that's where it was popularized.
34:11
Adam Curry: So the one drop rule, as I understand it, is if
34:14
you have one ancestor somewhere with one drop of white blood,
34:19
you're no longer black. So he's bringing colorism into it.
34:22
Whereas it's very obvious. Kamala Harris is not African
34:26
American. She's not an American descendant of slavery. And there
34:29
will there black people everywhere and I going on
34:31
television and trying to explain this with little success.
34:36
John C Dvorak: Let's go back to 2000 when Don Lemon still had a
34:40
show on CNN,
34:41
Adam Curry: ah, the good old days I missed I missed the dawn
34:44
Meister and he
34:46
John C Dvorak: was convinced that she was you know, she she
34:48
was not a das for sure. And it was like she doesn't count it
34:52
but she's black but so what even though it's now there's numbers
34:56
coming out showing that you know, even her dad was not even
34:58
fully black but
35:01
Adam Curry: It's not about color. The point is is beside
35:03
John C Dvorak: the point, but let's listen to Don Lemon go
35:05
after a black woman who's defending cameras being
35:08
American. He does when she's not a black woman. Okay.
35:12
Unknown: I agree with that. I
35:13
agree with that. But African American? No. But is she African
35:18
American? There's a difference. There's nothing wrong with that.
35:20
No one is trying to take anything
35:21
away from her to her lineage.
35:23
I think you're falling. I think you're falling into the trap.
35:26
All
35:26
she had to do was say, I am black. No,
35:28
I'm not African American.
35:29
That's it.
35:33
I'm not falling. Let me let me let me finish. Hold on. I'm not
35:36
falling into a trap by that.
35:38
Adam Curry: April Ryan.
35:39
John C Dvorak: I don't remember I think it is. When she
35:42
Unknown: goes down her lineage. Many Africans landed on in
35:45
Jamaica and all these other Caribbean islands. So she could
35:48
indeed make us not America. You can mix with others but she's
35:51
not
35:51
American. But she is a black woman. She
35:53
was born.
35:57
Ted Cruz, Ted Cruz. Ted Cruz.
36:00
This is not about Ted Cruz. You
36:02
cannot. It was hypocrisy. I'm not changing the subject. Yes.
36:08
Adam Curry: Cruz. April Ryan is a DOS American descendent of
36:12
stupidity. Jeez, crazy. Yeah. Well, remember the a DOS
36:23
Americans they were okay with Obama, who was Kenyan Hawaiian
36:28
call whatever you want. The Filipino what was he? Not
36:31
Kenyan? Indonesia was Kenya Indonesian. Well,
36:36
John C Dvorak: boy, he is Indonesian. Yeah. But invasion.
36:39
Yeah. Because he had to wait. The whole thing was sketchy.
36:41
Yeah, it
36:41
Adam Curry: was sketchy, but it was because of Michelle.
36:43
Michelle, a black American woman. Always got Michelle
36:47
that's okay. So called if Kamala wants to win anything with this
36:50
black vote nonsense. She has to have Westmore?
36:55
John C Dvorak: Yeah, well, that's not happening. It's a
36:56
fact that was already leaked.
36:58
Adam Curry: I don't actually I didn't see that as a leak.
37:02
John C Dvorak: I saw it as a scam of some sort. Do you have
37:07
you ever clip? It's just it's an ad with music. And it's not a
37:12
clippable. But it was an ad that came out of Pennsylvania
37:17
Philadelphia, I believe from the mayor of Philadelphia
37:20
congratulating Shapiro for being the vice presidential choice
37:23
really
37:24
Adam Curry: wasn't really congratulating him as well.
37:27
She'll be great with Shapiro. Well,
37:30
John C Dvorak: whatever it was, I think it was just a test dry
37:33
Ryan and maybe there could have been 200 of these dimes. We
37:36
don't know. But Shapiro still. And it's going to be sketchy
37:41
whether they pick strip Shapiro, as I pointed out in the
37:43
newsletter is the wrong. Do you have to give up Michigan if
37:48
you're going to take but Pennsylvania is more important
37:50
than Michigan? And I don't know what they're thinking. But
37:54
Cooper left so that ruins my thinking that was going to be
37:58
Cooper? He said No, I'm not going to do it. No. And, and I
38:02
think, what's her name? They're not going to run to women. I
38:05
don't care what anybody wants. Now
38:07
Adam Curry: Shapiro did cancel his his trip to the Hamptons,
38:10
days before the reveal on Tuesday. So I think
38:14
John C Dvorak: it's gonna be I still think Shapiro is still at
38:16
the leaderboard. He's the guy but it's going to really screw
38:20
up things because of the Palestinian supporters.
38:23
Adam Curry: Yeah, that's no good. So you don't see I don't
38:26
know you don't think there's any that Vice yours for Harris.
38:31
John C Dvorak: Meet Up. Zoom calls seem to be jacked up about
38:35
Shapiro being the guy. Well, yeah, there Jews. Hello.
38:39
Adam Curry: You don't think there's any I mean, just just
38:41
thinking as as crazy people who want to assassinate candidates.
38:47
You don't think there's any that Kamala is in any danger?
38:51
John C Dvorak: A big assassinated?
38:52
Unknown: Yeah.
38:53
John C Dvorak: Was it last time? Since Kennedy? Did anyone even
38:57
took a shot at a Democrat? It's
38:59
Adam Curry: a cycle.
39:02
John C Dvorak: I don't know. Well, I mean, there was now if
39:05
you haven't noticed, this is in the news. If you give you're
39:07
keeping track if you keep score, no, I'm too big. All of a
39:10
sudden, I don't have a clip and I shouldn't I was thinking about
39:13
getting this clip. I didn't get it. All of a sudden that because
39:16
they're investigating the Secret Service. Now they've gone back
39:20
to the pipe bombs in January. So yes, I did. They came out with a
39:24
report saying oh, these pipe bombs. Those explained it we're
39:27
blaming the Secret Service for leaving the pipe bombs there.
39:30
And then in the in the exposition of this discussion of
39:33
the pipe bombs, they keep saying and one of the pipe there was a
39:36
pipe bomb at the RNC and there's a pipe bomb at the DNC and
39:40
Camela walked right past the pipe bomb Vice President walked
39:46
right past the pipe bomb and she could have been exploded. And
39:51
I'm thinking why is this all of a sudden being discussed as
39:54
anything? Why is it in the new report? So this was maybe a shot
39:59
across the bow Out of warn her or warn everyone that yeah we
40:03
can blow you up I don't know
40:05
Adam Curry: put her on equal footing that's I have I did
40:08
notice that I didn't get any clips I did see articles about
40:11
it that's interesting well yeah it's
40:15
John C Dvorak: out of the blue out of the blue just out of the
40:17
blue boom we're talking about the pipe bombs now whoo
40:22
Adam Curry: Yeah, yeah because that was hushed up like don't
40:24
talk about the pipe bomb. Don't talk about pipe bomb.
40:27
John C Dvorak: Disappeared.
40:29
Adam Curry: Let me just do a quick headline. Let me just do a
40:30
quick Google News scan. Let me see what they say. Kamala pipe
40:36
pipe bomb pipe bombs. This will get me on a list.
40:40
John C Dvorak: Yeah, it'll be on a list. Go go use Duck Duck go
40:44
too late.
40:45
Adam Curry: So listen to this. ABC News New DHS Watchdog Report
40:50
details how close Kamala Harris came to viable pipe bomb. Let me
40:56
see is any other mainstream? The Times Kamala Harris came within
41:04
20 feet of pipe bomb at Capitol riot which is a little
41:08
disingenuous
41:11
Unknown: put all right MSN
41:14
Adam Curry: Campbell hearts Okay, that's came within 20 feet
41:16
of pipe bomb January 6, if anything, okay, how about this?
41:21
Because they're connecting the pipe bomb to January 6. So how
41:24
about some kind of attempt that we can pan on Republicans and
41:31
attack attempt I'm not saying that it was that it will be
41:34
successful but an attempt because there's a lot of
41:37
connection to January. In fact, everyone's connecting to January
41:41
6. House Pat. Oh, this is this was March. Mmm
41:47
Unknown: hmm.
41:49
Adam Curry: Oh, we got to keep our eye on this
41:51
John C Dvorak: sentence up. I mean, they're trying to you
41:53
know, since Trump did get shot with a bullet they finally
41:55
admitted it. Yeah, I have. They're trying to balance it a
41:59
little bit. Well, you know, Trump got shot so what she would
42:03
have been glowed up.
42:04
Adam Curry: Here's the latest about the Secret Service agents
42:08
and the local cops tonight the
42:10
Unknown: Secret Service acknowledging that their agents
42:12
could not hear radio traffic. In the moments as local police
42:16
desperately tried to find a man who would soon attempt to
42:20
assassinate former president
42:21
when I snap pops. There was really a big sense of urgency
42:26
going on and the state and locals were doing everything
42:29
they possibly could to try to find the assailant.
42:32
In fact, the Secret Service had no personnel and a key command
42:35
post with a radio traffic about shooter Thomas Matthew crooks
42:39
was being listened to. There
42:41
was clearly radio transmissions that may have happened on that
42:44
local radio net that we did not have
42:47
acting Secret Service Director Ronald ROH holding a rare press
42:50
conference today. And while he continued to express concerns,
42:54
the local police may have had a vantage point to clearly see the
42:58
shooter on the roof with a rifle. He again laid the blame
43:01
for the overall failures squarely at the feet of his
43:04
agency.
43:05
And no way should any state or local agency supporting us in
43:09
Butler on July 13 be held responsible for our Secret
43:13
Service failure.
43:15
And with this blunt assessment as we approach the Democratic
43:18
National Convention, the director warning that we're in a
43:20
quote, unprecedented threat environment
43:23
Adam Curry: unprecedented threat environment, we of course have
43:26
the best producers in the universe. And I have a boots on
43:29
the ground from the night of the thin blue line. He says I've
43:33
many insights in the ways of American law enforcement I have
43:35
some first hand insight as to how local law enforcement
43:38
officers and the United States Secret Service coordinate VIP
43:41
visits. I have worked several presidential visits to my city.
43:45
Do we have the best producers or what? So like George
43:49
Stephanopoulos says, Hey, one of our producers here happen to be
43:53
you know, beyond detail with many presidents and as they
43:56
know, the most recent event was when Trump visited my city for
43:59
the state convention in 2023. Prior to the event, all
44:03
personnel were advised of mandatory overtime all days off
44:07
or canceled all hands on deck for the 300 ish sworn personnel.
44:12
Prior to the start of the day, we local cops attended a
44:15
detailed briefing to go over the written operational plan, then
44:19
included assignments and posting security zones etc. everyone in
44:24
attendance was required to sign the operational plan. And he
44:28
puts in parentheses where's the Philadelphia operational plan
44:31
that would put to rest who was responsible. Most importantly,
44:35
it included how to communicate any security issues up the chain
44:38
of command. So the United States Secret Service agent embedded
44:42
with our commanders could relay information to Secret Service
44:45
personnel on the VIP detail. My post was the highest rooftop
44:50
directly across the street from the event venue. It was a black
44:54
roof eight storeys high in June in the southeast. It was hot We
45:00
didn't just decide to be more comfortable and sit in an air
45:03
conditioned room on the eighth floor of the building instead.
45:06
Our department's motorcycle squad did the Escort from the
45:09
airport to the venue when Trump was about three miles out. We
45:11
were ordered to land all. All drone or UAV assets. No drones
45:18
were able to fly even police drones. Finally, when Trump left
45:21
his motorcade to go inside, there were no fumbling and
45:24
bumbling dei hires who couldn't find their holster. The detail
45:28
was mostly men who all looked like badass operators in nice
45:31
suits who could handle business. Like our dude thin the night of
45:36
the thin blue line, that's how it's supposed to go. It doesn't
45:40
sound like anyone had an operational plan they signed off
45:43
on what did
45:45
John C Dvorak: I understand that they'd ever had an operational
45:47
plan that they didn't the coordination between the locals
45:50
and the and the Secret Service was the deal. They were bitching
45:55
about it new, like a like a soccer game. Yeah, noodle mill.
46:01
Adam Curry: So when you hear that, that there was definite
46:05
lines of communication in this event? This story sounds weird.
46:10
Unknown: Tonight, a stunning new admission from the Secret
46:13
Service.
46:14
It was so apparent to me that in this incident, in the final 30
46:18
seconds, there was clearly radio transmissions that may have
46:21
happened on that local radio net that we did not have.
46:25
Look what happened.
46:26
And the seconds before a gunman opened fire on former President
46:30
Trump. Local police sounded the alarm over their radios that a
46:33
gunman was on the roof. Only the Secret Service didn't get that
46:37
message. This is going to drive our operations going forward.
46:40
Ronald RO, the new Acting Director of the Secret Service
46:43
taking questions from reporters today. At the first press
46:46
conference since the July 13. Rally press by NBC News as to
46:50
why Secret Service agents didn't know local police were
46:53
communicating about the shooter row explained we had
46:56
our security room and then they had a unified command post. We
46:59
have to rethink how we you know, where we put our security
47:03
rooms and local and federal law enforcement who have worked with
47:06
Secret Service tell NBC News this type of coordination is
47:09
critical. How important is it for sort of service and local
47:13
law enforcement to be together physically during an event is
47:16
extremely vital so
47:17
you have no communication gaps between the agencies.
47:21
Today's revelations coming just days after row fell under sharp
47:24
scrutiny from senators that demanded more answers. He
47:27
promised the agency is doing a full review and will discipline
47:31
or fire agents who should be held accountable. And tonight
47:34
the coroner's report obtained by our Pittsburgh affiliate WP exci
47:38
confirms crooks was killed by a gunshot to the head. Oh,
47:42
Adam Curry: thanks, Captain Obvious. No, there you go. So
47:47
that smells bad.
47:51
John C Dvorak: Well, like I said they're blaming this guy row is
47:55
just as as responsible as the Cheadle woman as he shot he
48:00
should go yeah effect he should quit. I
48:03
Adam Curry: have two more Kamala clips on if you have any more
48:06
but like the one.
48:07
John C Dvorak: I just want to play this one first. Okay, which
48:10
is one of the one of my weird clips. Okay, WTF clip is the WTF
48:17
clip
48:17
Unknown: earlier this week speaking to a gathering of Black
48:19
Journalists, former President Donald Trump questioned vice
48:22
president Kamala Harris's racial identity.
48:25
And now she wants to be known as black. So
48:28
I don't know. Is she Indian? Or is she black?
48:30
She is always a black college.
48:33
I respect either one. But she obviously doesn't
48:37
John C Dvorak: know, in there that we played this clip before
48:40
in this entirety. Yes. The the journalist from ABC says she's
48:47
always identified as a black woman, which is a blatant lie.
48:52
That's not true. We have plenty of clips of Kamala identifying
48:56
as an as a South Asian woman over and over and over again.
49:01
They had specials on her done with other Indians and she was
49:05
the South Bay. So that's bullcrap. So she does ABC
49:09
reporter who was very hostile. I agree. Yes. We just lie right
49:14
there.
49:15
Adam Curry: Well, the Kamala is was so all in on your Indian
49:18
heritage. She should be running Google. I mean, seriously, there
49:21
was just a continuous or more Microsoft or any big tech
49:25
company for that matter. This is who is this? This is conserve
49:32
the culture founder, and an activist Makayla Montgomery. A
49:37
Unknown: few days ago, President Trump said he didn't know vice
49:40
president Harris was a black woman. I'm trying to figure out
49:43
what all the outrage is about because he's the only black when
49:45
it's time to get elected. She's very good.
49:52
John C Dvorak: He did you see he brought her on a second time.
49:54
Go. Yeah. Oh, yeah. He's got he's got a gold mine and this
49:58
one. She's skeptical.
50:00
Unknown: It is good
50:07
the same black people who are mad at Trump for being confused
50:10
about her race, ethnicity, nationality, whatever, are
50:14
seemingly forgetting that while you're touting her as the Savior
50:16
for black people, she identifies as an Asian woman. She chose her
50:22
side and it wasn't ours. When asked if she would ever do
50:26
anything specifically for black people, she said no. Whereas
50:30
Trump gave us the platinum plan. Lifted the black community by
50:35
increasing capital by almost $500 billion, creating 500,000
50:40
new black businesses and would give black churches the ability
50:43
to fight for federal resources for their communities.
50:49
Adam Curry: Now there's, there's another thing in there that I
50:52
learned from the OFAC show that in the workplace, most a Das,
50:59
I'm just going to make it very clear, are severely
51:03
discriminated against by Asians, ie Indians, particularly in the
51:08
tech sector.
51:11
John C Dvorak: Oh, that's interesting. I can see that she
51:14
Adam Curry: was like to a severe degree. And when the whole Floyd
51:20
thing came around with all these, all of a sudden, then all
51:24
these Silicon Valley companies, you know, these tech companies
51:27
like, Hey, you're black once you come to the meeting and tell
51:29
everybody how you feel. Interesting. Yeah. Yeah. Well,
51:37
of course, there's a lot of classist issues in general.
51:41
Yeah. I always
51:42
John C Dvorak: had that with brought with Indians. Because
51:44
only ones that are over here, really, to any extreme or
51:48
Brahmins. Yeah. And they're very classic, classist, and they
51:52
wonder,
51:53
Adam Curry: the ones that listen to no agenda.
51:57
John C Dvorak: No, even even our Brahmins, there's no question
52:01
about it. But there's just they just happened to be up to date
52:07
with things a little better. But Indians is from my sources. The
52:14
Indian contingents in the United States are just baffled
52:19
Brahmins. They're baffled by why we don't have a class structure
52:23
doesn't make sense to them. We do. We got Puerto Rico, but not
52:27
in any any rigid ways. Not like, I mean, the Brahmin, you're the
52:32
one you're the one that touchable is the other end of
52:35
the spectrum is very rigid. You're you're
52:37
Adam Curry: promoting favelas. I mean, come on.
52:42
John C Dvorak: We're very classist. Well, promoting
52:45
favelas is different. Okay. It's a housing. That's a practical
52:50
solution to
52:51
Adam Curry: a problem the housing price housing program.
52:57
John C Dvorak: By the way that comes up with the there's nobody
53:00
has been able to debate my favorite in fact, JC buzzkill
53:05
Jr, he likes to always cite the he sees urban analysis of
53:11
authors, including one famous woman whose name is eluding me.
53:17
They're really kind of there's there's an undercurrent in terms
53:21
of urban development and urban theory that favelas are not a
53:26
bad idea.
53:27
Adam Curry: Well, if I could, if I could add to it, I think we
53:29
should do the American version of a favela. You've already
53:32
picked the spot is that hill overlooking San Francisco? It's
53:36
John C Dvorak: on the other side. Actually. It's on this
53:38
one. This is South San Francisco. It's on the site. It
53:41
overlooks the peninsula really not so much.
53:44
Adam Curry: Is it a nice view, though? Oh, it's dynamite
53:47
killer. Well, then, instead of you know, the shanty towns, it
53:50
just dropped a whole bunch of federally funded to tiny homes,
53:54
then you kind of have like the community
53:57
John C Dvorak: first village, this this is this I had to argue
54:00
against this sort of thinking, no, why no reason. Because then
54:05
all of a sudden you're gonna have regulations and zoning. You
54:09
cannot allow the government involved but there's but there's
54:12
Adam Curry: where it's working in Austin community first
54:15
village, there's no regulation, the government's not involved.
54:18
So just have the tech guys. But
54:20
John C Dvorak: it's not in in any way. A shanty town know that
54:25
where people are building their own stuff, and they're just
54:28
introducing, regulating regulation is the key to this.
54:33
Adam Curry: Okay. All right. Can we can we make wood available?
54:39
John C Dvorak: Most people can find wood. Okay, but yeah, it'd
54:42
be nice to do you do what they used to do with remember the
54:45
riots that used to take place during the Floyd and don't brick
54:49
and Tifa here. That's where you'd go. You'd go around the
54:52
corner and there'd be a load of bricks. Yeah. That somebody left
54:57
there so they could throw the bricks at the cops. Yeah, yeah.
55:00
No one ever knew where these bricks came from those guys yeah
55:03
drop some wood and bring those guys back and have dropped
55:06
bricks and wood in there yeah sure you could do that.
55:10
Adam Curry: I still I'm not against your idea at all i
55:13
John C Dvorak: i see it as argue against but
55:16
Adam Curry: still the land has to be made available by the
55:18
government so they have to nest the B City Council
55:21
John C Dvorak: it says fallow it's sitting up there right now
55:23
there's not being used for it. So for this set for this signage
55:26
it says South San Francisco that can be removed I'll leave it
55:30
there leave it up put it put lights or you can use it to
55:32
build part of the house.
55:34
Adam Curry: put lights on it so people can see it from from from
55:36
the from down below.
55:42
John C Dvorak: Meanwhile, by the way that where the Hollywood
55:44
sign is in LA now the perfect spot Yeah,
55:47
Adam Curry: it was a great spot. The Sonya Massey. Killing is
55:53
gaining steam ahead of the convention in Chicago.
55:57
Unknown: It's been about two weeks since the body camera
56:00
footage of 36 year old Sonya Massey being fatally shot by
56:03
sheriff's deputy was released to the public.
56:05
All too often, black Americans face fear for their safety in
56:11
ways many of the rest of us do not on July
56:15
6 Massey was shot and killed by former deputy Sean Grayson
56:18
inside her home in Springfield, Illinois. This happened after
56:21
police say she called 911 To report a prowler in her
56:23
neighborhood. Grayson has since been fired from his job and
56:26
charged with her murder. He's pleaded not guilty to all
56:29
charges while the Sangamon County Sheriff's Department has
56:32
spoken out against the shooting, saying it does not reflect their
56:34
values and training. Here at home activists are calling for
56:40
justice and change any
56:42
improved since the killing of George Floyd and 2020. Pastor
56:49
George Floyd Bill organisers
56:51
held a peaceful protests outside Chicago police headquarters
56:54
calling for the passing of the George Floyd justice and
56:57
policing Act. The bill increases accountability for law
57:00
enforcement misconduct.
57:03
Adam Curry: By the way, I see. Yes, yes.
57:07
John C Dvorak: So the guy was a rat kicked off his job. charged
57:11
with murder. Yes, no justice. And he's, he's charged. They've
57:16
arrested him for murder, which is what was appropriate, and
57:20
they want him to do what what more do they want to torture
57:23
him? Right? No,
57:24
Adam Curry: no, they want the George Floyd Act signed, which
57:27
was
57:29
John C Dvorak: going to accomplish that their normal
57:30
justice system that already arrested the guy for murder.
57:34
What's what's what's, what needs to be done? I'm not getting
57:39
this.
57:39
Adam Curry: That's a very good question. Let me see what the
57:42
st. Floyd Act includes.
57:47
John C Dvorak: They want to police officers accountable.
57:48
That guy has been arrested for murder Hello. The
57:51
Adam Curry: bill enhances enforcement mechanisms to remedy
57:54
violations by law enforcement. Among other things does the
57:57
following lowers the criminal criminal intent standard from
58:00
willful to knowing or reckless to convict a law enforcement
58:05
officer misconduct in federal prosecution limits qualified
58:09
immunity as a defense to liability in a private civil
58:12
action against law enforcement officer and grants
58:15
administrative subpoena power to the Department of Justice in
58:18
pattern or practice investigations? That's probably
58:21
the big one right there.
58:23
John C Dvorak: So it's got nothing to do with this case.
58:26
The guy's been arrested for murder. I will say this is all
58:29
specious. This is all this is all designed. It's it's PR.
58:35
Well, it's more in PR. It's trying to handcuff the police.
58:39
Yes.
58:40
Adam Curry: Was PR. I will say I saw the second body cam footage
58:45
and I'm not saying that this cop did the right thing. But the the
58:49
woman when she she threw the boiling water was throwing the
58:53
boiling water at the COP and that's when he shot not saying
58:56
that that was the right thing to do. But no one saw that. Did you
59:01
even know it? No,
59:03
John C Dvorak: I did not know this because there's there's two
59:05
bodies. My understanding since you saw that I didn't my
59:09
understanding was that she threat just threatened to do it
59:12
and never did. Yeah, the way it was presented to me Yeah, no,
59:16
Adam Curry: you actually see the water being thrown. But I didn't
59:19
know if was boiling. I don't know any of that. But it doesn't
59:22
matter because it was not not good. Anyway, I really do you
59:30
have anything else on Trump or anything? Because there's not
59:32
much going on right now. I mean, just the same old same old
59:35
everyone's forgotten that he almost got killed. That doesn't
59:38
seem to be a thing anymore. I
59:39
John C Dvorak: have a I have two series on on Trump one is their
59:43
clock one. That one of them is they're trying to pin something
59:49
on him to kind of like soften the blow the Biden you know,
59:54
obvious corruption and graft. So they've come up with this bull
59:58
crap. This is Carol land. Then, on the Trump bribe
1:00:06
Adam Curry: Carol, who is she? Carol Lennox, Lennox or Lenin?
1:00:09
Oh, it's
1:00:10
John C Dvorak: says she's introduced. I'm
1:00:12
Unknown: pretty sure. And Carol, I want to ask you because you
1:00:15
have a new exclusive out about a secret investigation into
1:00:19
whether Donald Trump response ties from the long
1:00:23
Adam Curry: clip man.
1:00:24
John C Dvorak: She Yeah, I'm sorry. She is a reporter for The
1:00:28
Washington Post. She's implying that Trump was given a bribe in
1:00:35
cash from
1:00:36
Adam Curry: Egypt. Is that the thing? Yeah,
1:00:38
Unknown: yeah, yeah. Okay, Tim, President Abdel Fatah, LCC, a
1:00:42
legend. And allegedly, the legend walk us through exactly
1:00:46
how did $10 million possibly get from the Government of Egypt to
1:00:51
then President Elect Donald Trump?
1:00:53
What happened and what was jaw dropping jaw dropping US
1:00:57
government? Investigators, federal prosecutors FBI agents
1:01:02
was the CIA in early 2017 alerted the Department of
1:01:06
Justice, that they had credible intelligence from an informant
1:01:11
and corroborated by additional intelligence gathering, that LCC
1:01:16
had plans in late 2016, to basically inject or illegally
1:01:22
give $10 million to Donald Trump's reelection efforts.
1:01:26
Essentially, he wanted to help Donald Trump get elected and he
1:01:29
was going to do this with $10 million. Under the table.
1:01:33
investigators looked and looked and looked to figure out if this
1:01:37
intelligence was true, could they figure out was this money
1:01:40
ever spirited to Donald Trump? Did he have spirited?
1:01:44
Adam Curry: Why would you use that term? spirited? That's
1:01:47
interesting.
1:01:49
Unknown: Spirited intelligence was true. Could they figure out
1:01:53
was this money ever spirited to Donald Trump? Did he in their
1:01:57
words accept a bribe? But the problem was, although they found
1:02:02
a debate, Tyro bank had made a bizarre withdrawal of cash
1:02:08
exactly matching the intelligence $10 million pulled
1:02:13
out of essentially the Egyptian CIA's account, just as the
1:02:18
intelligence suggested they found this withdrawal of cash
1:02:22
stuffed into duffel bags, five days before Donald Trump became
1:02:27
president. But the problem for investigators in the United
1:02:30
States was they wanted to get Donald Trump's records his bank
1:02:34
records to determine did that money from Cairo that was so
1:02:38
suspicious $10 million in US bills, did it land in Donald
1:02:43
Trump's accounts? And the US attorney and basically said no,
1:02:48
I'm not going to let you subpoena those records. You
1:02:51
don't have enough evidence to do that. And Bill Barr, the
1:02:55
attorney general at the time he killed very suspicious of this
1:02:59
request to subpoena for records and express doubts about whether
1:03:03
or not this case was justified. In the end, the prosecutors and
1:03:08
the FBI agents threw up their hands they said they couldn't do
1:03:12
this investigation without getting that information. And
1:03:15
they were despondent because they felt they had a lot of
1:03:17
evidence suggesting this could be true they had to find out if
1:03:21
it was and they were never allowed to do that. So
1:03:25
Adam Curry: in in the world in which we live where the media
1:03:27
believes that they are the ones that choose our presidents this
1:03:30
would be a smokescreen for the ACT blue shenanigans going on
1:03:34
with his 200 million for Harris
1:03:36
John C Dvorak: right it also drives takes away from the guy
1:03:40
that democratic just yeah quit become a gold bar man a gold bar
1:03:46
Bob gold bar ba why why is this definitely a smokescreen and it
1:03:51
here's a couple of things that should be noted the CIA can look
1:03:55
at anybody's bank account they would have seen this they didn't
1:03:58
need to really do any of this this was both This is bull crap
1:04:02
this is the same as the 51 CIA guys who intelligence experts
1:04:07
who said well yeah the laptops bull crap even though the effort
1:04:10
right there from recession Russian disinformation and the
1:04:13
Russian Is that true so the whole this is this is a bogus
1:04:18
story,
1:04:19
Adam Curry: but why is the why use the term spirited I look at
1:04:22
the definition I don't see how you can connect. Transferring
1:04:25
money to spirited unless it's
1:04:27
John C Dvorak: like I spirited is a term you would use in
1:04:31
writing to imply sneaking it you spiriting it off you're sneaking
1:04:36
it
1:04:37
Adam Curry: like a go like a ghost. Okay, gotcha.
1:04:39
John C Dvorak: So I think is a good use of the word I would
1:04:42
never do use it myself. But I think that's what she's trying
1:04:44
to get. She's trying to get the image in your brain that she
1:04:47
just goes like, go be ready. Druce Yes. Okay, got it. Got it.
1:04:51
Part two.
1:04:52
Unknown: It's pretty stunning, Carol. I mean, Egypt has been in
1:04:55
Adam Curry: let me step away for the enthusiasm. Yeah, that's
1:04:58
pretty stunning, Carol. Yeah, that's
1:04:59
Unknown: pretty stunning. and Carol, I mean, Egypt has been in
1:05:01
the news a lot lately, namely because Democratic Senator Bob
1:05:05
Menendez was convicted just last Oh, of acting as a foreign agent
1:05:09
for Egypt. Is there a possible pattern here? Egypt's efforts in
1:05:16
trying to influence us politicians?
1:05:19
The key linchpin in all of this, Laura Wow. So
1:05:22
Adam Curry: they have, they can't really do Russia anymore.
1:05:26
So we're gonna do Egypt now. Now, Egypt, the brothers
1:05:28
John C Dvorak: also this this element we noticed earlier in
1:05:31
the show with the pipe bomb is that we have to have a balancing
1:05:35
act, the Democrats, Democrats did this. Take a shot at Trump.
1:05:40
Yeah. So we added all that somehow. Now the Republicans who
1:05:43
even though we don't have any evidence whatsoever, let's just
1:05:46
dream up a story and make it so as he admitted Menendez disowned
1:05:50
of Trump. Oh, it was taking a bribe and $10 million bribe.
1:05:54
Meanwhile, of course, they act blue thing, like you said, is
1:05:58
hundreds of millions but okay, the
1:06:01
Unknown: key linchpin in all of this, Laura is again, Egypt's
1:06:05
general intelligence agency, essentially, LCC CIA. This is an
1:06:10
important spy network that CC has relied upon to pressure and
1:06:15
push for his agenda abroad.
1:06:17
Adam Curry: Oh, wait, this this also this has a secondary
1:06:21
benefit, because we know that Egypt won't taking any
1:06:24
Palestinians. So let's make those guys look stupid.
1:06:28
Unknown: Possibly, yeah, especially
1:06:31
in the United States. What what Menendez is bribery conviction
1:06:35
and trial showed was the general intelligence services top
1:06:39
officials were reaching out and making friends with Menendez and
1:06:45
trying to steer him to push specific things that were
1:06:50
important to see see on the world stage. They went so far as
1:06:54
Menendez actually giving them some important information that
1:06:58
was pretty sensitive about employees of our government who
1:07:03
are in Egypt, which was pretty sensitive information. And it
1:07:07
went so far that he took a lot of money from people who are
1:07:12
operating at each IPS bidding, and he was accused of being a
1:07:17
foreign agent of that country. The general intelligence service
1:07:21
once again, CC's CIA was the entity that the US Intelligence
1:07:28
said would be used to spirit this money to Donald Trump. And
1:07:33
the general intelligence service account is where that bizarre
1:07:37
$10 million cash withdrawal came from.
1:07:41
Carolyn egg of The Washington Post, thank you for your time.
1:07:44
Riveting,
1:07:45
Adam Curry: riveting. Riveting riveting. Carol, thanks. So
1:07:48
John C Dvorak: that's just a smear, smear. Just same. smears
1:07:52
didn't go spirited, schmeer schmeer, it was a schmear in the
1:07:57
Jewish sense. I have two other ones. I got Trump in Atlanta and
1:08:02
NPR clip.
1:08:03
Unknown: Former President Donald Trump held a rally in the
1:08:06
battleground state of Georgia today is NPR Stephen Fowler
1:08:10
reports the state has a new significance in the presidential
1:08:13
race. Trump's
1:08:14
packed rally had the same crowd size and energy as vice
1:08:17
president Harris's rally days earlier. Exactly the same exact
1:08:21
same venue,
1:08:22
John C Dvorak: by the way, stop stop is that even though the
1:08:24
Democrats had to bring in two homeless, they bust them in and
1:08:29
pay people money to show up at the Harris campaign and then
1:08:32
brought a Torker in a hip hop artist. Megan came from there,
1:08:37
Megan, the stallion, Megan, the stallion. And they did that. And
1:08:42
it was like the same. Exactly the same. Okay.
1:08:45
Adam Curry: Also news guy on on the tiktoks he was he was
1:08:48
showing crowds waiting in line for a Harris event and it was
1:08:52
all AI it was all you know, people really see the people
1:08:58
holding up signs with their hands going through the sign
1:09:00
and, and very, very weird things like yeah, that doesn't really
1:09:04
look authentic brah there's, those
1:09:06
Unknown: campaigns are paying attention to the Peach State.
1:09:09
It's one of several newly competitive states now that
1:09:11
Harris is in the race.
1:09:13
And we can't let that happen. Because if we lose Georgia, we
1:09:16
lose all thing and our country goes to hell, because we can't
1:09:20
have her be President of the United States. She's grossly
1:09:24
incompetent.
1:09:25
Both Trump and Harris have launched multimillion dollar ad
1:09:28
buys across seven battleground states that will decide who wins
1:09:31
in November. Stephen Fowler, NPR news, Atlanta.
1:09:35
Adam Curry: I'm noticing this flaw in in the Trump campaign.
1:09:39
And I really started to pay attention to it when he said at
1:09:43
the end, a BJ BJ interview, that their whole campaign was geared
1:09:50
towards Joe Biden, and that they really weren't prepared for
1:09:54
Harris and I can't understand why he hasn't called her
1:09:58
cackling camera. yet. I mean, it's so obvious. He needs a name
1:10:05
like lion Camela. No cackling camera that that is I think
1:10:09
that's persuasive. This
1:10:12
John C Dvorak: has come. This has come up this has come up in
1:10:16
the conversation if you listen to enough of these resources,
1:10:20
which is the dead the Trump campaign, supposedly I don't I'm
1:10:24
not buying this completely, that the Trump campaign was flat
1:10:28
footed. When Biden bailed? I wouldn't say that. And they
1:10:34
don't they're still strategizing, what to do. And
1:10:39
Trump's kind of ad libbing. That's where he that thing about
1:10:42
the Indian heritage kind of came out even though it seems like a
1:10:47
plot to me it seems like he was he schemed that but they're
1:10:50
making it sound as though he just made it up on the fly,
1:10:53
which he doesn't do that much of he practices his bits. Yes, he's
1:10:58
maybe test your right cackling camera would be a lot better,
1:11:01
because it does give you an image or
1:11:04
Adam Curry: calm communist Camela. I mean, you can do a lot
1:11:06
of things, a lot of alliteration opportunities.
1:11:09
John C Dvorak: It's only been a week or so. So give him a little
1:11:12
time. All right.
1:11:14
Adam Curry: Well, there's another thing I feel they're not
1:11:15
prepared for. And this is a it's a it's a risky move, but no
1:11:19
agenda shop may want to may want to think about it. No
1:11:22
John C Dvorak: agenda shop.com.com.
1:11:26
Adam Curry: So all of Trumps merchandise, has 4547 on it.
1:11:31
This is very, very risky. Because he may have to make it
1:11:36
48 If Joe dies, and Kamala becomes the 46 the 47 president,
1:11:45
his merch will be no good.
1:11:47
John C Dvorak: Wow. So that is about as obscure. A concept as
1:11:51
I've heard. Thank you. So good. No, it makes it collectible.
1:11:55
Adam Curry: Yeah, well, yes. But being ready and having Trump 48
1:12:03
Would you'd be you'd be ahead of everybody.
1:12:06
John C Dvorak: Yeah, the problem with that is that if that guy if
1:12:09
like somebody leaked a 48 out there, that would mean he's not
1:12:12
quitting. He's staying in office, you know, or some some
1:12:16
scam ish thing they would come up with? Would that is an
1:12:20
interesting point. Yes. He would have to change it to 4548.
1:12:24
Adam Curry: Yes. Or just 48 or just 48? Yeah, just a thought.
1:12:33
Just a thought.
1:12:34
John C Dvorak: Well, anything can happen. If you saw the one
1:12:37
clip which I reposted on Twitter. I use Twitter. Yes.
1:12:41
I've seen you with this one clip that's floating around. It's
1:12:45
It's It's Biden at the at the meeting with the hostage
1:12:50
exchange. And he wanders off as it's want to do. He's wanders
1:12:56
off and wanders onto another plane and just goes in. Well, do
1:13:00
you see this? Yes,
1:13:01
Adam Curry: I did. Well, I want to say a couple of things about
1:13:03
it. Because this was the the airplane that brought the
1:13:07
Russian prisoners in the prisoner swap, which we can
1:13:10
certainly talk about. The White House has come up with a
1:13:15
statement so he walked up the stairs and I mean, certainly the
1:13:19
way it was positioned that the clip the way Kamala was looking
1:13:22
at him doing what he doing. I mean, it was almost like Hey,
1:13:27
Joe, Joe, Joe would come back.
1:13:30
John C Dvorak: He wondered it was but it was one of those
1:13:32
wandering off things like he did in the in Europe when he
1:13:36
wandered off to the wrong guy who, you know, De Beers.
1:13:39
Adam Curry: Yeah, well, what the White House has come out with a
1:13:42
statement. The interlude for Biden lasted two minutes. The
1:13:48
President was out of view for about a minute and 40 seconds.
1:13:50
President Biden wanted to personally thank the flight
1:13:53
crew, who brought these brave injured individuals home to
1:13:57
their families. White House Deputy Press Secretary Andrew
1:14:01
Bates sold the Daily Mail. Now, that is already barely
1:14:06
believable. But you can see that he walks up the stairs and turns
1:14:10
right, he doesn't turn left towards the flight crew unless
1:14:13
you want to thank those.
1:14:15
John C Dvorak: I do recall him he looks like he turned right. I
1:14:17
want the best excuses. He had to go to the bathroom.
1:14:21
Adam Curry: That would have been good. That would have been
1:14:23
better.
1:14:24
John C Dvorak: It would have been more logical.
1:14:28
Adam Curry: According to tinfoil hat in the troll room, the
1:14:29
flight crew is actually on the tarmac next to the plane. Well,
1:14:32
that makes it even funnier. Let me just talk about this for a
1:14:36
second because this deal. Let me see. Alright, so here's the CBS
1:14:44
and by the way that overshadowed the deal itself. You know,
1:14:47
everyone's like, Oh, look at that guy. But more. Everyone's
1:14:51
very distracted by that. Not at all talking about the deal.
1:14:57
Unknown: Marine veteran Paul Whelan was the first former As
1:15:00
an urge to step back onto us soil, immediately welcomed home
1:15:04
by President Biden and vice president Harris. Wall Street
1:15:07
Journal reporter Evan Gersh. KOVITCH soon followed, embracing
1:15:11
his mother on the tarmac and journalist also commercial law
1:15:21
who could not wait to see her daughter's. To me.
1:15:26
This is about the essence of who we are as a country. It really
1:15:30
is about personal relationships about families, Whelan's
1:15:33
family played a critical role securing his release. They were
1:15:37
disappointed when he was not part of the last prisoner swap
1:15:40
with Moscow that freed WNBA star Brittney Griner and former US
1:15:46
Marine Trevor Reed
1:15:47
sometimes some harsh words with the government having to keep
1:15:51
them accountable for taking care of us. But in the end, you know,
1:15:55
here I am.
1:15:55
At least five Americans remain imprisoned in Russia, including
1:15:59
61 year old Mark Fogle, a teacher from Pennsylvania. Two
1:16:04
years ago, Fogle was sentenced to 14 years and a penal colony
1:16:08
for possessing medical marijuana. In his statement to
1:16:11
CBS News, his family said we are completely heartbroken and
1:16:15
outraged that Mark has been left behind while the US government
1:16:19
brought other Americans home. President Biden vowed to fight
1:16:23
for
1:16:23
Fogle. We're not given up or we're not given up on that
1:16:27
the agreement led to the release of 24 prisoners by seven
1:16:30
different countries. Among the fried Russians, a convicted
1:16:34
murderer, several spies and hackers on CBS mornings National
1:16:39
Security Adviser Jake Sullivan justified the trade.
1:16:43
At the end of the day, the President looked at this deal.
1:16:46
And he said what we are getting the value of human life, the
1:16:50
value of families back together, the value of standing up for
1:16:53
freedom of the press far exceeds what we are giving up by sending
1:16:58
a few more criminals back to Russia, right. So
1:17:00
Adam Curry: the American media was completely useless on giving
1:17:02
us any details or really how the deal fit together. I went to the
1:17:06
European media, France 24 and Deutsche Avella. And first of
1:17:10
all, I mean, just considering the swap. I would say the
1:17:14
Washington Post guy probably was a spook he probably was spying
1:17:18
there. That's what he was arrested for. And that's why
1:17:21
they wanted him back. That's just my feeling. I have nothing
1:17:25
to base that I feel the same way. And here's the here's the
1:17:29
sister of the Fogle guy.
1:17:31
Unknown: It was a long awaited reunion for the freed American
1:17:34
prisoners and their loved ones. For the families of those still
1:17:37
being held in Russian prisons. It's also a huge disappointment.
1:17:41
American Mark Fogle was not part of the exchange on the first of
1:17:44
August.
1:17:45
It's bittersweet that Mark they left Mark behind they just
1:17:49
that's that's what happened. And they they preferred other people
1:17:56
over him.
1:17:58
Adam Curry: Yeah, yeah, we want something valuable is to this.
1:18:01
What is valuable is human life, says, Jake, as human life except
1:18:06
yours, you're less less valuable. Deutsch Avila actually
1:18:10
had some details, which I appreciated.
1:18:13
Unknown: So what do we know about the size and scale of this
1:18:16
deal? Well, this was the largest prisoner swap in the post Soviet
1:18:21
era and it took place in Turkey, the US, Russia and others
1:18:26
exchange 24 prisoners and two children. 10 people have been
1:18:31
moved to Russia for 16 Western and Russian nationals. Now
1:18:36
perhaps the most well known of them is Wall Street Journal
1:18:39
reporter Evan Gursky vich he was detained in Russia on spying
1:18:42
charges in March of last year. German national Rico Kay who was
1:18:47
sentenced to death in Bella rousse on terrorism charges is
1:18:51
also among those freed as is Vadim grassy cough, a Russian
1:18:57
who was convicted of the 2019 murder of a former church and
1:19:01
Millicent in Berlin. While speaking about the exchange, US
1:19:05
President Joe Biden paid particular tribute to German
1:19:08
leader Olaf Schultz are particularly
1:19:11
great sense of gratitude to the chancellor. The demands are
1:19:20
making a may require me to get some significant concessions
1:19:25
from Germany, which they originally concluded they could
1:19:29
not do because of the personal question. But everybody stepped
1:19:33
up, Paul stepped up so he stepped up Turkey stepped up.
1:19:37
And it matters to have relationships really does.
1:19:41
Adam Curry: So that was a lot going on on this deal that we
1:19:43
really don't know about.
1:19:45
John C Dvorak: But I do want to mention some of the it's kind of
1:19:48
amusing, which is the two children that were the kids of
1:19:53
one of the spies that went back to Russia. were completely
1:19:56
unaware that they're Russian wandering Who the hell this
1:20:00
Putin guy
1:20:01
Adam Curry: was? Why are we on this plane going to Moscow? Why
1:20:05
are we on this
1:20:05
John C Dvorak: plane going to mind? They don't speak Russian.
1:20:08
Wow. And they were completely befuddled the stories about the
1:20:11
two kids being what happened to us is apparently hilarious.
1:20:18
Adam Curry: Yeah, so I guess this is part PR, because it's
1:20:23
the WaPo is a journalist and oil journalist.
1:20:27
John C Dvorak: You know, I always wonder how leaky The CIA
1:20:30
is when it comes to these guys. Ever since the entire Chinese,
1:20:37
you know, infrastructure of American spy agents in China
1:20:43
that were that were all arrested and shot? Yeah, because of a one
1:20:48
one counter agent that was working for the CIA, given the
1:20:52
names away. If this you know, it's like every spoken in Russia
1:20:57
is not identified already. Yeah. There's just keeping an eye on I
1:21:04
mean, they arrested that one guy for for whatever reason,
1:21:07
Adam Curry: because here's the thing. They didn't if this if
1:21:09
this was a PR move, they didn't do it right. Now is the is the
1:21:15
is the guy in the morning shows as you're doing interviews, is
1:21:18
he out there talking about how great Joe and Kamala are? Yeah,
1:21:21
it was, I couldn't believe it. I set my foot back home on
1:21:25
American soil and there was the President the Vice President to
1:21:28
greet me even waiting to get my bag off the plane. That would
1:21:33
have been the way it would have been the way to play it. Now, so
1:21:41
it's just feels wrong. And we all got really distracted by by
1:21:47
Biden's meandering. Because it was it was funny. Oh, it was
1:21:54
hilarious. But when I see that I'm like, Okay, what are we
1:21:57
missing here? And what we're missing is the actual story. So
1:22:03
and how can you even remember one of the other names of the
1:22:06
other days apparently is 1000 Americans in jail in in in
1:22:10
Russia?
1:22:13
John C Dvorak: No, of course not. No. Okay, so
1:22:16
Adam Curry: not a good job. People not a good job. Anything
1:22:20
else on this because we've got to go to the UK.
1:22:24
John C Dvorak: Let's go to the UK. UK
1:22:27
Adam Curry: is in chaos. And our producer boots on the ground
1:22:32
Sarah has been keeping me very up to date. Most of it not
1:22:37
usable for the show but just so I kind of know what's happening.
1:22:42
She's you know, there's a lot of people doing YouTube videos and
1:22:45
Tik Tok videos and a kind of take that for what it is but
1:22:49
there's a lot of videos of people with machetes and knife
1:22:54
fights and hammers and going crazy is a background I
1:22:58
John C Dvorak: I have a background or it's the only
1:22:59
thing I have is this one. I said something to the last show but I
1:23:03
bumped it for this one. This is the UK riots. This is the newest
1:23:07
version from NPR. It's a very short and extremely short
1:23:12
backgrounder. It was
1:23:13
Unknown: a violent day and several British cities today
1:23:15
riots involving hundreds of anti immigration protesters began
1:23:18
after false information spread on social media to set the
1:23:21
suspect in a knife attack earlier this week was a radical
1:23:24
Muslim immigrant. Police say the suspect was born in Wales.
1:23:27
John C Dvorak: Yeah, yeah. Now see, this is the we've had three
1:23:31
versions of this guy first he was a immigrant and then he was
1:23:35
a you Rwandan
1:23:37
Adam Curry: which I think that's the truth. He He's born of
1:23:39
Rwanda and immigrant parents
1:23:42
Unknown: in Wales.
1:23:44
Adam Curry: I don't know about Wales, but
1:23:46
John C Dvorak: that's what he said. He said he's born in
1:23:47
Wales. I don't know about Wales. So how many Rwanda is there in
1:23:51
Wales? That then go to London? So Chuck
1:23:55
Adam Curry: wasn't in London? Hello. Oh, it wasn't in London.
1:23:58
I'm sure I thought it was in London. No, no, no Southport.
1:24:00
This is this is the North okay.
1:24:02
John C Dvorak: Now well, beside the point it's nowhere near near
1:24:04
Wales. Be careful No, where near Wales. Okay.
1:24:11
Adam Curry: Let me see. Southport and Wales.
1:24:15
Unknown: Hmm.
1:24:20
Adam Curry: This No, this is more this is Liverpool. Anyway,
1:24:26
the what's happening is so this has been bubbling under for a
1:24:32
long time in the UK. People are very tired of the immigration.
1:24:38
And there was even a story here. Yes, facts on a plate. Our
1:24:46
population is at least 77 million somewhere. So the UK has
1:24:51
gone from 59 million in 2001 to between 77 and 80 million by,
1:25:00
you know, by this by the independence count and and
1:25:05
they're saying well of course this is all immigration. And you
1:25:08
know if you follow Tommy Robinson who's a little tough to
1:25:11
follow because, you know, he's so vilified and he speaks like a
1:25:16
hooligan. It's just, it's just what he is the way he speaks.
1:25:21
But you know, there's a lot of we've seen the grooming, a lot
1:25:25
of a lot of horrible things. And even someone looked it up for me
1:25:28
back in episode 986, or something of the show. We were
1:25:33
talking about the increased knife fight knife crime in the
1:25:37
UK, and I remember weddings, we got people like, Hey, shut up.
1:25:40
It's not that bad.
1:25:43
John C Dvorak: Now yet people are saying that just about Nigel
1:25:45
Farage. Yes,
1:25:47
Adam Curry: exactly. Oh, well, so Faraj, of course, you know,
1:25:50
these are now his people. So the people who are out there and
1:25:54
these are northerners now this is what happened with the when
1:25:57
the iron lady came in. What's her face? Yeah, your lady was
1:26:02
Thatcher. Yeah. When Thatcher came in, you know, we had the
1:26:05
guys from the north come down with their, you know, the thin
1:26:07
white English dudes with their pitchforks and their torches.
1:26:11
And, you know, you don't want to piss these guys off, and they're
1:26:14
all walking around, you know, with they're all tatted up.
1:26:17
They're all workers that blue collar. They got the Union Jack
1:26:20
right draped around their shoulders, and they're tired of
1:26:23
it. So they of course, are the far right. The far right don't
1:26:27
understand it's the far right. The far right is writing. The
1:26:30
far right is a problem. Here's here's a short clip from a
1:26:37
podcaster Paul Thorpe and he's one of the he's one of them.
1:26:42
See,
1:26:42
Unknown: these losers have become case Thomas. And the
1:26:46
mainstream media is useful idiots. and I are allowing them
1:26:51
to hide the bigger picture from all of us. So we get a problem
1:26:55
three, the real protesters, the ordinary mums and dads and dads
1:26:59
and granddad's are now of course, predictably, being
1:27:03
lumped in with the rioters we knew that was going to happen
1:27:07
didn't wait, allowing star ma to dismiss the real witchy unlike
1:27:12
the blind firmly at the door of the so called far right, which
1:27:16
has now become a term surely that needs to be quickly put to
1:27:21
sleep before the country explodes. Doesn't this
1:27:26
government doesn't in the mainstream media realize that
1:27:29
every single unfair every single biased headline all this
1:27:35
misleading and inaccurate rhetoric is unreleased stoking
1:27:39
the fire. And their refusal to look at the bigger picture is
1:27:44
simply staggering. And if they continue to label everyone as
1:27:48
far right, then don't be surprised when people start to
1:27:52
behave like it.
1:27:54
Adam Curry: I think we should give this guy the 3am slot on
1:27:56
our cable channel can be great. Yes, that's, well, it's RAM so
1:28:01
it'd be ADM. ADM, in the UK as part of the UK drive time. So
1:28:08
here's GB news, which is supposed to be the conservative,
1:28:11
you know, like the Fox News version, soft Fox News in the
1:28:16
UK. Here's their morning show. These two ditzes are pretty
1:28:20
funny.
1:28:20
Unknown: That has been another night of serious violence on the
1:28:23
streets as protesters have attacked a police office set a
1:28:27
car on fire, and they've surrounded a mosque in
1:28:30
Sunderland. The
1:28:31
demonstration which was in Sunderland, as you say it was
1:28:34
one of more than a dozen that had been planned by someone
1:28:38
across the country,
1:28:39
or the Prime Minister has warned protesters they would face the
1:28:42
full force of the law do use of course try to crack down on the
1:28:45
violence. And
1:28:47
of course this violence seems to be happening ironically and
1:28:50
dreadfully after those three little girls were murdered
1:28:53
during the massive stabbing in Southport. How
1:28:56
Adam Curry: is this ironic? Post ironic people are mad about
1:28:59
this. I don't understand the eye the irony of it
1:29:02
John C Dvorak: back again, maybe I can catch it.
1:29:06
Unknown: As well and protesters they would face the full force
1:29:08
of the law to use of course trying to crack down on the
1:29:11
violence.
1:29:12
And of course this violence seems to be happening ironically
1:29:16
and dreadfully after those three little girls were murdered
1:29:19
during the mass stabbing in South boy.
1:29:22
Adam Curry: So they're disconnecting the to what
1:29:25
John C Dvorak: they Yeah, they're making it ironic because
1:29:27
it was violence that killed three little girls and they're
1:29:29
exhibiting violence. Yeah,
1:29:31
Adam Curry: yeah. Oh, she How ironic is that? I wonder? How
1:29:35
could that be? GB
1:29:37
Unknown: news do you think it is? It is very difficult to
1:29:42
think about how we manage all this and the fact we sort of say
1:29:46
it's in the wake of what's happened in Sunderland. It's got
1:29:48
nothing to do
1:29:50
with SASS forte has clearly whoever is orchestra,
1:29:54
Adam Curry: there's literally saying it has nothing to do with
1:29:56
it.
1:29:58
Unknown: It makes no sense. sense yeah,
1:30:00
to think about how we manage all this and the fact we sort of say
1:30:04
it's in the wake of what's happened in Sunderland. It's got
1:30:07
nothing to do now,
1:30:09
Adam Curry: which has everything to do with Sunderland. Alright,
1:30:12
so maybe maybe you know they're they're making a misconnection
1:30:17
but this is not the first thing that has happened to young girls
1:30:21
or or people in general in the UK there is just like Sweden we
1:30:25
don't hear about it anymore. But there's a lot of illegal
1:30:29
immigrant crime taking place. So you can't disconnect this GB
1:30:33
news as
1:30:34
Unknown: far as clearly whoever is orchestrating these events
1:30:38
Adam Curry: in Russia, maybe Russia is doing it.
1:30:41
John C Dvorak: What is she she's orchestrated, it's
1:30:43
Adam Curry: orchestrate whoever is doing this Egypt,
1:30:46
Unknown: Egypt. It's got nothing to do now.
1:30:49
With Soundsport has clearly whoever is orchestrating
1:30:52
Adam Curry: it. Yes, it absolutely right. Looney MC
1:30:57
tuning the party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes
1:31:00
and ears. It was their final and most essential command. Exactly.
1:31:04
Don't believe your eyes and ears, people. Oh, clearly
1:31:08
Unknown: whoever is orchestrating these events is
1:31:10
using Southport as some sort of a trigger skews. And it may be
1:31:14
an excuse. Yeah, but for what you ask what good. I mean, I've
1:31:18
heard many commentators say what what do they think they're
1:31:21
achieving? And I think the answer is that they don't think
1:31:24
at all. They're just looking for an excuse to cause trouble.
1:31:29
Well, I think some some are, but there is, I think, Mark White
1:31:33
homeland security, security, as this has put it very well over
1:31:35
the last couple of days, when he's talks about the fact that
1:31:39
there is the great parts of the British community who feel
1:31:43
unheard, underrepresented, ignored by the politics, but not
1:31:51
ignored by the police. When you compare it to this idea of two
1:31:55
tier policing, where if you've got a pro Palestine March and
1:31:59
awful things chanted, nothing seems to happen. But you should
1:32:03
have a lot of white people together and the police move in
1:32:06
the right gear. Yeah,
1:32:07
Adam Curry: there's a lot of this a lot of these because I'm
1:32:09
watching the crowds. I'm watching people interview people
1:32:12
in the crowds. There's a lot of this two tier policing two
1:32:15
tiered justice system. Hey, welcome to the party. UK.
1:32:19
Welcome to what we've been subjected to. We just don't use
1:32:23
machetes. So of course yeah, yet. Of course. This is as
1:32:31
fodder for all kinds of cool stuff we can do when when the
1:32:33
population kicks up like this in Liverpool,
1:32:36
Unknown: Bristol hole or Belfast, anti immigration
1:32:40
protests have swept across several British cities in what's
1:32:43
become the most widespread rioting in the country for over
1:32:46
a decade. In Nottingham to far right demonstrate
1:32:50
Adam Curry: what happened a decade ago. What right we were
1:32:54
around with the show what writing was there.
1:32:56
John C Dvorak: That era when the students were protesting and
1:32:58
they developed at tea kettle approach? Remember that? Oh,
1:33:02
Adam Curry: yeah. Negatively Yes. Cabling cabling. Ah, good
1:33:06
one
1:33:06
Unknown: tree for over a decade. In Nottingham tuned. Fairlight
1:33:10
demonstrators took to the streets on Saturday facing off
1:33:13
with anti racism groups. People
1:33:15
are fed up as being told you should be ashamed if you're
1:33:18
white and working class. Well, I'm proud white working class,
1:33:23
there
1:33:23
is an attempt to exploit a very tragic situation. This is a sort
1:33:27
of nationwide protest we've seen come out of nowhere. And
1:33:31
Nottingham is a multiracial city and we want everyone to feel
1:33:34
comfortable in their own city centre. The widespread riots
1:33:37
follow a stabbing in Southport that killed three young girls
1:33:40
earlier this week. false information about the suspects
1:33:43
background quickly spread online, fueling anti Muslim and
1:33:46
anti immigration demonstrations. Even after police confirmed the
1:33:50
suspect was born in Britain. The violence has prompted hundreds
1:33:56
of mosques to step up security. It's a first test for newly
1:34:01
elected prime minister Kier Starmer. His government has
1:34:04
promised a firm response. criminal violence
1:34:07
and disorder has no place on Britain's streets. We've been
1:34:12
clear to the police that they have our full backing in taking
1:34:16
the strongest possible action against perpetrators, including
1:34:21
we're making sure that there are more prosecutors. There are
1:34:24
sufficient prison places and also that the courts stand
1:34:28
ready in Sunderland where violence has a peak on Friday
1:34:31
for officers had to be hospitalized and 10 writers were
1:34:35
arrested further demonstrations are planned for Sunday. Yes,
1:34:39
Adam Curry: sound familiar? Oh yes, there were cops herded the
1:34:43
January 6 riots. Yeah, some very familiar script. This, of course
1:34:47
is not what Kier Stormer wanted, as Starmer wanted as his first
1:34:54
first issue to deal with as the new prime minister. So there is
1:34:57
a political aspect to this. So we had to come out. And he had
1:35:00
to talk to had some kind of meeting like some some homeland
1:35:04
security meeting. And you have to take into account at the UK.
1:35:08
If you post something on social media that hurts someone else's
1:35:11
feelings, you will get a visit from the police. And you can get
1:35:15
arrested for just saying, hey, you know, you you tranny is not
1:35:21
a nice thing to do. But no, it's like, but in America, at least
1:35:24
you can say it. If you want, you can go you do your Macedon vibe
1:35:29
you can do you can do that. But in the UK, you know, you get
1:35:33
arrested. So they have to we gotta take measures.
1:35:37
Unknown: This was a meeting to pull together our response
1:35:41
response both to the immediate challenge, which is clearly
1:35:44
driven by far right hatred, by nearly all violent disorder that
1:35:49
flares up whatever the apparent causal motivation, we make no
1:35:54
distinction. Crime is crime. And so to that end, I can announce
1:36:01
today that following this meeting, we will establish a
1:36:04
national capability across police forces to tackle violent
1:36:08
disorder. These thugs are mobile, they move from community
1:36:14
to community. And we must have a policing response that can do
1:36:18
the same. Why the deployment? Sorry?
1:36:23
John C Dvorak: It says a national police force.
1:36:26
Adam Curry: Oh, yeah, they can do the same mobile
1:36:29
John C Dvorak: forever. Left has been wanting to create a
1:36:32
national mean, they tried to make the FBI into it. But now
1:36:36
Adam Curry: they had a meeting. So what's happening, and
1:36:38
Unknown: we must have a policing response that can do the same
1:36:42
shared intelligence, why the deployment of facial recognition
1:36:46
technology and preventive action, criminal behavior orders
1:36:51
to restrict their movements
1:36:52
John C Dvorak: bring crime?
1:36:54
Adam Curry: Behavioral What do you say was the term used here?
1:36:59
Unknown: facial recognition technology, and preventative
1:37:03
action, criminal behavior orders to restrict their movements for
1:37:07
John C Dvorak: criminal behavior order. Yes,
1:37:09
Adam Curry: with preventative action. So you look you're kind
1:37:12
of you're posting some criminal things there online, we're going
1:37:16
to have to restrict your movement son, before
1:37:19
Unknown: they could even board a train.
1:37:24
Adam Curry: Social score, yeah, China, China,
1:37:27
Unknown: before they could even board a train in just the same
1:37:30
way that we do with football hooligans. But let me also say
1:37:35
two large social media companies and those who run them, Elon
1:37:39
violent disorder, clearly whipped up online. That is also
1:37:44
a crime. It's happening on your premises. And the law must be
1:37:49
upheld everywhere. That is the single most important duty of
1:37:54
government service rests on security. And we will take all
1:37:59
necessary action to keep our streets
1:38:02
Adam Curry: safe. Whenever there wasn't what do you say was the
1:38:04
most important action of government violent disorder
1:38:07
Unknown: clearly whipped up online. That is also a crime.
1:38:11
It's happening on your premises. And the law must be upheld
1:38:16
everywhere. That is the single most important duty of
1:38:20
government is
1:38:21
Adam Curry: that that law must be upheld everywhere. That's the
1:38:23
most single important duty of government. So shut down social
1:38:28
media because that's a problem. And there's an advisor to
1:38:31
Starmer. And he tries to walk it back a little bit, but he's very
1:38:37
clear what he's saying here. Now,
1:38:38
Unknown: I believe Lord warnie is with us now. Lovely to see
1:38:41
you this morning. It's been a very good week, particularly on
1:38:45
your patch and issues that you're interested in, John,
1:38:48
because, I mean, we've been seeing Britain go up in flames.
1:38:52
You've said something interesting in a previous
1:38:54
interview, and I just want to question you on it. You sort of
1:38:56
suggested that we might want to reintroduce COVID measures to
1:39:01
deal with that. Does that what you mean, have you been mis
1:39:03
misconstrued slightly? Explain what you mean?
1:39:06
No, no, I'm
1:39:07
glad you've asked me about this Camilla. No, not at all. The
1:39:12
point I was making is that that at points of national emergency,
1:39:17
the British public such as, as we haven't covered, the British
1:39:21
public have shown that they are prepared to accept different and
1:39:25
unusual approaches. And I think that in that context, if if
1:39:31
greater powers are needed for the police to be able to crack
1:39:35
down on the troublemakers who are inciting these and inflaming
1:39:41
these riots, I think there would be broad support for that. I
1:39:46
think some of the people who never wanted locked down in the
1:39:49
first place have been sued either deliberately or
1:39:55
unintentionally what I was saying so thanks for giving me
1:39:57
the chance to make that clear.
1:39:59
Adam Curry: Yeah. Don't think you're talking about people
1:40:01
wearing a mask bro. Obviously locked down slug people in their
1:40:05
homes, the British people they are. They are willing to take
1:40:11
these extreme measures. They're willing. They're willing to take
1:40:13
it. Well, we shall see. We shall see how the brothers do up there
1:40:19
up north. I don't think so. I think they've had it. I do
1:40:25
predict that we'll see some immigrant hotel gets set on fire
1:40:29
in the UK. It's going to be bad.
1:40:32
Unknown: Yeah, probably. Yeah.
1:40:35
Adam Curry: And on that happy note, that's fair, a great way
1:40:38
to go. Like to thank you for your courage in the morning tea
1:40:42
with the man who put the seat and cackling Kamala say hello to
1:40:44
my friend on the other end the one and only Mr. John
1:40:52
John C Dvorak: revenir says the world the names and nights out
1:40:54

1:40:55
Adam Curry: the morning to our trolls and the troll room. Let
1:40:58

1:41:17
doing good things good work trolls are good trolls and pat
1:41:20

1:42:11
gone into the troll room. And I don't remember having to
1:42:15
register or anything you go in as a guest and you're sitting
1:42:18
you
1:42:18
Adam Curry: can't post I think you can only post if you
1:42:20
register otherwise you just then you're you're lower than a
1:42:24
troll. And I'm sure you didn't post that you post something
1:42:29
John C Dvorak: only to post in there for.
1:42:31
Adam Curry: Exactly. So I think you can you can be a troll and
1:42:35
be in there but you can't troll so you're actually sub troll.
1:42:38
John C Dvorak: You're a non troll. Yeah,
1:42:39
Adam Curry: you're lower than troll. I mean, that's bad lower
1:42:42
than troll. As you can understand just listening to
1:42:47
even GB news who have a commercial model, they have
1:42:51
commercials. There's no way we could live by a commercial
1:42:55
system because the stuff that we're talking about No, we're we
1:42:59
we bring you therapy for your conspiracy theories. And we try
1:43:04
to help you understand what's going on your world which means
1:43:07
you know, sometimes we got to talk stuff that just won't pass
1:43:10
on. won't pass and Garm regulations if you know what
1:43:14
Garmin is look it up jrM No way. So we decided early on almost 17
1:43:18
years ago. Let's Garm Garm is the rating agency. Oh that you
1:43:23
haven't heard of Garm? No. Oh Garm is amazing. Garm stands for
1:43:30
Let me see. It's the it well, they are the World Federation of
1:43:36
Advertisers Garm stands for Global Alliance for responsible
1:43:41
media. You see? So Garm is a cross industry initiative
1:43:49
established in 2019 by the World Federation of Advertisers How
1:43:54
can you not be a member to help the industry address the
1:43:57
challenge of illegal or harmful content on digital media
1:44:01
platforms and its monetization via advertising? This was set up
1:44:08
after the church Christ shooting when the killer live streams
1:44:13
attack that was their that was their trigger.
1:44:16
John C Dvorak: X Christ Church
1:44:18
Adam Curry: ya know in in New Zealand,
1:44:21
John C Dvorak: yeah, Christ you're you said Church Christ.
1:44:23
Did
1:44:23
Adam Curry: I say that I met Christ Church. I say Church
1:44:26
Christ. That's weird. He did Christ your mom. I'm dyslexic. X
1:44:32
is now a member of Garm. Because, you know, the
1:44:34
advertisers they don't they're so incestuous. The advertisers
1:44:40
don't really want any risk is certainly not the agencies that
1:44:45
by the media. So now so you know the agency Well yes, we follow
1:44:50
the Garm guidelines so your content will always be safe. It
1:44:54
won't show up next to a bunch of horrible podcasters or anything
1:44:58
want to hear their strategic partner are some Garm? Yeah, I'd
1:45:01
John C Dvorak: like to hear this. This is all news. I don't
1:45:03
know how they miss this. I understand that I'm a podcaster.
1:45:07
I take I know this.
1:45:09
Adam Curry: I'm sure we've played something about Garm. I'm
1:45:11
sure we have. Well, maybe not. Maybe not. It's, well, it's the
1:45:17
big agencies, obviously. Then we'll see our leadership on
1:45:21
leadership. I think it's okay. We handlers
1:45:24
John C Dvorak: handler on there.
1:45:27
Adam Curry: No, we have the World Federation of Advertisers,
1:45:32
treasurer and CEO. We have the actual CEO of the World
1:45:36
Federation of Advertisers. We have the president of MasterCard
1:45:43
is in here. We have the Chief Marketing consumer and Marketing
1:45:49
Officer of international foods for PepsiCo. And these are
1:45:54
pretty big advertisers. Yeah, we have the Global Chief Marketing
1:45:59
Officer of Nestle. We have the chief communications
1:46:02
Institutional Relations Officer Bank of America.
1:46:06
John C Dvorak: So far, all I'm hearing is globalists. Well,
1:46:08
Adam Curry: yes, that is correct. Global category leader
1:46:12
marketing and services IBM Wreckit. Ralph, another huge
1:46:18
advertiser at Unilever. Diageo, there's your drink guy, the Mars
1:46:23
Corporation, L'Oreal, Procter and Gamble Danone for your, for
1:46:29
your dairy products. Do you see why you're not gonna get any
1:46:33
advertising? These are the advertisers. So they're all in
1:46:39
on this. And boy, they must have some great cocktail parties, you
1:46:42
imagine? Oh,
1:46:44
John C Dvorak: caviar, piles of piles of caviar. And those
1:46:48
Norden rip deals where you got a big bowl of ice and a bunch of
1:46:51
shrimp.
1:46:52
Adam Curry: Yeah. How about a chocolate fountain? One of
1:46:54
those?
1:46:56
John C Dvorak: Yes, that would be the Yeah, you have to have
1:46:58
that for sure. A
1:46:59
Adam Curry: chocolate fountain. Beautiful. So instead of that we
1:47:03
decided to go with a value from well,
1:47:04
John C Dvorak: we don't get to go to these parties. We don't
1:47:06
know. I haven't seen a shrimp cascade with a big button giant
1:47:10
thing ice and all the shrimp. I'd say for 10 years. Oh, ever
1:47:14
since I started doing this show, actually. But it's almost 20
1:47:17
years.
1:47:17
Adam Curry: Yeah, we didn't even we didn't even have nothing.
1:47:22
You're welcome. Enjoy. Yeah, so we decided to go with value for
1:47:27
value which is it's really simple. We put the show out we
1:47:30
put the show all our shows out from day one. Copy it we at
1:47:35
John C Dvorak: least we live as honest men. We do.
1:47:40
Adam Curry: We do. We live an honest life. And in which means
1:47:45
that we can dedicate ourselves but with the value for value
1:47:47
model. I mean, we just dedicate we don't have to do meetings
1:47:49
advertisement. Although it'd be nice to see the one of those
1:47:52
shrimp deals. We don't have to go to that meeting. Oh, yeah.
1:47:55
No, we'll we won't be using the any terms. You don't like Mr.
1:47:59
Mossad? Give us a list? Yeah, yeah, there's a list. And
1:48:02
believe me, there's multiple lists. So instead, we put the
1:48:05
shows out, make them available. You know, I saw that Patreon.
1:48:11
Now, I don't know how accurate these numbers are. But I was
1:48:14
looking at this. Patreon, who by the way, also deep platform
1:48:17
people which is why we don't use a Patreon model. You can you can
1:48:21
say something on a whole different platform. I go on the
1:48:23
Joe Rogan show and say something that Patreon doesn't like and
1:48:27
then they've got no more No more. No more sponsored, no more
1:48:32
donations for you.
1:48:34
John C Dvorak: Yeah, that's unbelievable that anyone would
1:48:36
go for that well,
1:48:38
Adam Curry: supposedly in 2023 40,000 what they call
1:48:42
podcasters I don't know exactly what they would they consider a
1:48:46
podcaster to be the they paid out $350 million dollars. Wow,
1:48:55
that's a lot of money. But you and I don't want to do Patreon
1:48:59
because a people can just get it you have to have a level you
1:49:03
have to subscribe.
1:49:05
John C Dvorak: Oh, it's too limiting. We're broadcast
1:49:07
doesn't if you know what you're doing. Patreon wouldn't do
1:49:11
better than we can do ourselves because both of us have enough
1:49:15
skill and experience that you can just duplicate what they do
1:49:18
and do it better. Because you don't have you're not competing
1:49:22
with anybody and you're not on their limited system which only
1:49:26
allows this this and that it doesn't allow like the kinds of
1:49:29
subscriptions knighthoods executive producer ships all the
1:49:33
things that we offer are far above and beyond what patron
1:49:37
could even come close to accomplishing and then we're not
1:49:41
limited by their their rules. Yes. Which we don't we are not
1:49:45
rule followers. We
1:49:46
Adam Curry: are definitely not rule followers and I don't think
1:49:48
our trolls are Ruffalo was either.
1:49:50
John C Dvorak: Well, that's for sure. But the point is, is that
1:49:53
it's a crappy system for anyone who thinks for themselves.
1:49:57
Exactly. I'm really sorry. Fried and then that was that was a
1:50:01
really go along with the program on Patreon or the Oh, we got
1:50:04
special content. If you join the Patreon and premium premium, you
1:50:09
get to see the show ahead of time you get to see something I
1:50:12
wouldn't give there anybody else because I'm just giving it to
1:50:15
you. This is bullcrap. So
1:50:18
Adam Curry: instead, we just put the show out there and we say,
1:50:20
Hey, did you get any value from this and the back to us, you can
1:50:23
do it in many ways time, talent, treasure, we love our producers
1:50:26
who give us boots on the ground that is very valuable. We love
1:50:29
people who run websites, set up websites do all kinds of things
1:50:33
out there for us people organize meetups. We also need treasure,
1:50:37
time, talent, treasure, we need that as well. And people who
1:50:41
can't participate in in any other way. Even people who do I
1:50:44
would say some of our biggest and most frequent supporters,
1:50:47
let's put it that way are people who already do other things. Now
1:50:51
they understand the trifecta is not if an ad or it's you know,
1:50:57
whatever you can do is any end. It's an is whatever you can do.
1:51:02
So capitalist agenda is obviously his name is right in
1:51:09
the name. He's a Dutch master. And he is one of the artists who
1:51:13
uploads artwork to no agenda art generator.com Another fine piece
1:51:18
of machinery that Sir Paul couture put and he's a Sir, why
1:51:22
is he sir because he's a knight because he supported us with
1:51:25
treasure. But he also supports us with his time and his time
1:51:27
upgrades. So we've been through 15 years of the server with this
1:51:31
guy. We love him for it. And capital agenda capitalist agenda
1:51:36
took advantage of that system and upload what we thought was
1:51:40
just a dynamite piece of artwork, which we value very
1:51:43
much because art, especially when put out online, it attracts
1:51:47
people. It says something about the show you look at like, Oh
1:51:51
man, what are these guys doing now? And when it comes to spoof
1:51:57
package shots, and the no agenda artists are the best. So episode
1:52:01
1682. We titled that nativism just because the word either
1:52:05
wasn't heard of before. And we liked it was good. I've heard
1:52:08
John C Dvorak: of it. But I didn't know the definition of
1:52:10
the top my head so it doesn't count and
1:52:13
Adam Curry: capitalist agenda put together Camelus crackers,
1:52:17
not not an international product necessarily because animal
1:52:21
crackers is a very US centric product. But it was the exact
1:52:27
the exact look and feel of the animal crackers box. Except that
1:52:32
had cameras cracker boys behind bars, which made it even funnier
1:52:35
white dudes for Camela yeah, by the way, the the impetus for
1:52:39
that because I said they should have called it crackers for
1:52:43
Kamala, that was a troll room suggestion. So you know, this is
1:52:46
all on you guys, you you really put this together and I love it
1:52:51
when it comes together like that. And and just looking at
1:52:54
the details of this art. It's so good, including, of course net
1:52:58
weight, 33 ounces, and instead of Nabisco up in the corner, it
1:53:01
says Gitmo. I mean, it could not get any better. So we I mean, we
1:53:05
were unanimous in this decision, I think right off the bat.
1:53:11
John C Dvorak: Boy, yeah, you actually had come back from the
1:53:12
bathroom. Yeah, I typically need to pee and you asked me I don't
1:53:16
know you sometimes you do this and what's good. And I said
1:53:19
there's only one and you took the same look at it. I did you
1:53:23
get oh, yeah, we did. There was no dispute. We actually, were
1:53:27
remiss in discussing the other art. I can't say that we can
1:53:33
have criticism of the other art that there was good art there. I
1:53:36
mean, I think there's always something that could have been
1:53:37
selected. Yeah, but it was that quick. It was it was like
1:53:41
instant it was to pick hence
1:53:42
Adam Curry: the pick. Yes. Just looking through it. There's no
1:53:48
There's as obvious why it wasn't instant pick. It was this wasn't
1:53:51
that Camela with an afro No. Are you an American? Actually comics
1:53:59
a blogger had a weird AI generated thing, which was kind
1:54:03
of funny. I like Darren O'Neal's. weird weird weird
1:54:06
weird that was alright. But yeah, I was a more Olympic
1:54:12
stuff. Olympic cock rings. Okay, no. No. So obvious. It was just
1:54:20
dynamite. I think I think all the artists in you can see that
1:54:24
after that got uploaded, everyone gave up. Like, oh,
1:54:28
okay, now that's it.
1:54:29
John C Dvorak: We're gonna use that does happen once in a
1:54:31
while, because the artists will go and check out before they
1:54:34
submit or before they even start designing. They'll look, I've
1:54:38
seen this happen before where you would normally get about 20
1:54:41
pieces in and maybe sometimes 30. And then sometimes when
1:54:45
Zinger goes in there, that's just so good. You ended with 10
1:54:50
pieces.
1:54:51
Adam Curry: Yeah, by the way, it was war. Plautus I think who
1:54:53
came up with crackers for Camela credit where credit is due.
1:54:58
That's how it works. Your producers Even trolls can be
1:55:01
producers that would like to thank the executive and
1:55:04
Associate Executive producers of episode 1683 This is like
1:55:09
Hollywood this is another thing you don't get on. Try and take
1:55:12
your Patreon donation and opening up an IMDB account. No,
1:55:17
you can't do it. But when you have an executive or Associate
1:55:21
Executive Producer title from the no agenda show you can now
1:55:25
we don't need everybody to do this. We would prefer that
1:55:28
everybody who listens to got a sustaining donation which is
1:55:32
something there's a regular basis that is any amount that
1:55:34
you want all at all amounts or whatever you want, basically,
1:55:37
and we'd like to numerology that pops up from time to time. But
1:55:41
we will read the note and give the title of Associate Executive
1:55:45
Producer anyone $200 and above 300 and above and executive
1:55:48
producer and we will read your note and we kick it off right

1:56:45

1:56:55
Adam Curry: then double up karma.
1:56:57
Unknown: You've got karma.
1:57:02
Adam Curry: And then we move to by the way
1:57:04
John C Dvorak: I should mention people don't have to send in
1:57:06

1:57:07
Adam Curry: No, it's not necessary. But it's nice if you
1:57:09
just say no, no, we're n j and k or less J and J K whatever. Sir

1:57:28
right. All right then gentleman from Scotland. Forgive me pod
1:57:31
fathers for I've been busy and have not supported the best
1:57:34
podcast in the universe for a year. Please do you do? You

1:57:46
And so I am retiring from the parish ministry in the Kirk. I
1:57:51
would rather say I'm re firing than retiring because I am off
1:57:55
for bigger fish. Turning my energy from parish ministry to
1:57:58
national ministry in this my land of Scotland. They speak for
1:58:03
many when I say how no agenda has not only helped me laugh in
1:58:06
hard times, like when ended up in hospital from the clogs seen
1:58:11
the clog seen AstraZeneca the health karma worked, he says but
1:58:15
also your deconstruction of the news has helped me make sense of
1:58:18
the times we are in making us all better in our roles, in my
1:58:22
case, the shepherd of the flock. So thank you, John and Adam for
1:58:26
your shepherding of the Gitmo nation. We couldn't do it
1:58:29

1:58:52
Adam Curry: Salmon is the best I think Scott has smoked Scottish
1:58:54
salmon is the best in the world.
1:58:57
John C Dvorak: Would you Which brings me to the smoked salmon
1:59:00
you get from two cific Northwest races a story which is not a
1:59:04
story okay. Well it might be no no no no, so this people love
1:59:17
the salmon from Pacific Northwest but it's because of
1:59:20
the Pacific Northwest version of the wood that they use to smoke
1:59:25
it. They use Alder I bag we have a groin as a weed is considered
1:59:30
a weed but it's a big, thick weedy it's like four inches in
1:59:33
diameter or bigger. And it's in that order which is different
1:59:36
than the one we have down here. is so delicious. It's one of the
1:59:41
great woods of the world.
1:59:44
Adam Curry: I didn't know it was the wood. Well this the Scottish
1:59:46
salmon is just the salmon.
1:59:48
John C Dvorak: No, it's it's not as smoky with the same flavor of
1:59:52
wood. So just saying just saying I'm older wood if you if you
1:59:57
liked the barbecue,
1:59:58
Adam Curry: I'd like my son I sent salmon with one of those
2:00:01

2:08:15
most of them don't know about the corporate Transparency Act

also known as crap oh no CTA but if you own a business that was
2:08:23
formed through some kind of governmental filing or

2:08:30
business is probably affected. So listen up. This is a He's

2:08:47
with the Treasury Department's Financial Crimes Enforcement
2:08:50
Network, also known as FinCEN. That's right. Your government

coffee dough. And if you don't file your report before the

2:10:53

Unknown: is this. We go out for yet people in the mouth.
2:12:42
John C Dvorak: You think the local news or somebody report to
2:12:45
us about this issue with the LLC requirement that you send a
2:12:50
document to the Treasury Department out of the blue
2:12:52
wells? Okay,
2:12:53
Adam Curry: so that is why we are the best podcast in the
2:12:56
universe because we have producers who will gladly pay to
2:13:00
get this mentioned on the show. To Hell, what if it wasn't for
2:13:05
him? Well, we all be in jail together.
2:13:09
John C Dvorak: So unbelievable. They're not going to get
2:13:10
everyone to feel they're obviously not going to be able
2:13:13
to do this. They're gonna use it to intimidate low dry cleaners
2:13:16
and literal
2:13:16
Unknown: and podcasts, businesses.
2:13:19
John C Dvorak: And podcasts are podcasters there's probably a
2:13:20
lot of podcasters that are LLCs Of course, and they probably
2:13:24
indeed go through Patreon and patrons are going to tell him
2:13:27
anything. No,
2:13:28
Adam Curry: probably not.
2:13:31
John C Dvorak: I just find it irksome that this sort of thing
2:13:33
just crops up out of the blue like this. This is your Biden
2:13:36
administration.
2:13:37
Adam Curry: I'd like to drop down just the hair and hookers
2:13:40
report for a moment with some big tech news. As it looks like
2:13:47
we're getting closer and closer to the bubble popping that is
2:13:53
double the AI bubble. It's a bubble. It's a bubble and it's
2:13:56
not just me now Elliott Management wait Aren't those the
2:14:00
guys who Elliott Management in they're not they like an
2:14:05
activist? A bunch of guys?
2:14:07
John C Dvorak: who've never heard of them.
2:14:08
Adam Curry: I thought Elliott Management got a board seat on
2:14:10
some company. I think so. Elliott Management said the
2:14:16
technology mega caps such as Nvidia are in a are in bubble
2:14:21
land. And that the hedge fund is sketchy said they're hedge fund
2:14:26
skeptical that these companies will continue to purchase Nvidia
2:14:30
chips and graphic processing units in such huge volumes.
2:14:34
Elliott said that many AI applications are not ready for
2:14:37
primetime and that many of the expected uses are quote, never
2:14:41
going to be cost efficient, never going to actually work.
2:14:44
Right, and that they will take up too much energy or will prove
2:14:48
to be untrustworthy.
2:14:52
Unknown: Yeah,
2:14:53
Adam Curry: I think that's true. I'm on board with Elliot. I
2:14:56
think they're absolutely right. And well, there was Well, I got
2:15:00
a quick clip here, just the chip sector. It's been bad all round.
2:15:04
Unknown: We now know how many employees Intel plans to cut in
2:15:08
2025. Today the Hillsboro based company announced that they are
2:15:11
laying off 15% of their workforce as part of a $10
2:15:15
billion cost reduction strategy. That's more than 15,000 rolls
2:15:20
that could be on the chopping block next year. This comes as
2:15:23
the company reports a 1% decrease in their second quarter
2:15:27
revenue compared to last year. Intel currently employs about
2:15:30
120,000 people. It's one of the biggest employers in the state
2:15:35
of Oregon.
2:15:36
Adam Curry: No, that's not so good.
2:15:39
John C Dvorak: Wait a minute, this the Santa Clara company
2:15:41
when did it become a Hillsborough company?
2:15:44
Adam Curry: I don't know when that's that's your your Oregon
2:15:47
news organization. I don't know. Logitech coming out with a new
2:15:53
mouse, John.
2:15:56
John C Dvorak: You know, which reminds me so so I was using the
2:16:00
very shoddy I have to agree with our producers, the shoddy Ali
2:16:06
Express.
2:16:09
Adam Curry: Yes, the Amazon killer. But
2:16:11
John C Dvorak: they did have they do have a mouse under that
2:16:14
I bought one of these things, the exact same product from
2:16:17
Amazon about five, six years ago. And it was $11 mouse which
2:16:22
is the one I'm using on this machine right now. Yeah. And the
2:16:26
ALI Express had the same exact mouse exactly the same. I bought
2:16:29
one for five bucks. In less you can beat these prices. Your new
2:16:34
Logitech mouse is out the window. This is a terrific
2:16:38
product.
2:16:39
Adam Curry: Oh really? What model is it?
2:16:42
John C Dvorak: Say Yeah, I don't know. It's just some sort of a
2:16:45
screwy mouse. It's got it's got a built in battery. So you have
2:16:48
to use you can recharge it with the USB port just put batteries
2:16:51
in it like it does every it's a killer. It's a killer mouse.
2:16:55
It's just dynamite.
2:16:56
Adam Curry: Well, this new Logitech mouse five bucks, which
2:16:59
is the signature AI edition. ships with a dedicated button to
2:17:05
launch a chat GPT powered app. And you have to pay a
2:17:10
subscription to your mouse.
2:17:14
John C Dvorak: They should pay you for this mouse.
2:17:18
Adam Curry: I agree. I agree. Google had to pull their AI ad
2:17:25
which they had scheduled for the Olympics. And the reason why the
2:17:31
ad was titled dear Sydney and it showed a girl's dad prompting
2:17:36
the AI chatbot because that's all the AI does is chatbot and
2:17:41
embed and no agenda art. prompting the AI chatbot to help
2:17:47
write a letter to her favorite athlete, US hurdler and sprinter
2:17:50
Sydney. McLaughlin love Roan. And so people got very mad at
2:17:56
this. Because the payoff line was Gemini helped my daughter
2:18:02
write a letter telling Sidney how inspiring she is. Well,
2:18:07
people started sending letters of protest, saying hi don't want
2:18:12
some a I doing this work. I want my child to actually be inspired
2:18:18
and write to these athletes about how inspiring they are.
2:18:22
That shouldn't be Google's job. So they pulled the ad. People
2:18:27
are not happy. Good. I agree. I agree. Absolutely. And then the
2:18:36
absolute this is this is actually probably actually
2:18:39
probably who I listen to me. This is probably actually
2:18:43
actually one of the best AI products ever developed. It's
2:18:47
also the most horrible, but it only cost 2 million a couple
2:18:50
million bucks for this guy to put it together. It's not out
2:18:53
yet. And I'll give you the visual. It's a lanyard that you
2:18:58
put around your neck and has a little plastic like an amulet on
2:19:02
it and you talk to the amulet you press on it so it's like a
2:19:07
rubber almost you know it resembles
2:19:10
John C Dvorak: a little thing used to do float around with a
2:19:12
did you make your friends and maybe if you're near somebody
2:19:16
else had had one Gottschee a Tamagotchi and you had somebody
2:19:20
next to BBB BBB BBB somebody's next to you. Herbie that was the
2:19:24
Furby did that. Well, that noise was the Furby noise yes but this
2:19:28
other thing oh my
2:19:29
Adam Curry: gosh, did the Tamagotchis interact with each
2:19:31
other?
2:19:32
John C Dvorak: I first I remember if I've device I'm
2:19:35
thinking yes if you're in range of another Tamagotchi that some
2:19:40
buddy else was wearing you would now be friends.
2:19:42
Adam Curry: So it's it what this really resembles Have you ever
2:19:45
seen a gear lever in an aircraft? Yeah, of course and
2:19:50
has a round kind of rubber thing on it. Yeah, I've
2:19:53
John C Dvorak: been in a simulator. Which
2:19:55
Adam Curry: which is which is intentional because then you
2:19:58
don't you know you grab that lever You know, immediately
2:20:00
that's my gear. That's That's why flaps is like a flat knob
2:20:05
that feels like a flap. So it looks like one of those rubber
2:20:08
wheels you read around your neck and then you press it. And it
2:20:11
doesn't end. So it listens to you, it doesn't respond to you,
2:20:14
it responds to you on your phone with a text message. Listen to
2:20:18
the report.
2:20:21
Unknown: It's the video Silicon Valley is talking about the
2:20:25
Effexor crazy, a teaser for a wearable product called friend,
2:20:30
which promises to be just that if you consider AI to be your
2:20:34
friend, you kind of have this feeling of no judgment. And I
2:20:37
think that allows you to be a lot more authentic with it.
2:20:39
Obviously, the 21 year old who created friend and spent just
2:20:44
shy of $2 million for the website friend.com describes his
2:20:48
product as a good listener. Sorry, that messy. The most
2:20:52
similar relationship you can attribute it to might be a
2:20:55
relationship with God where it's this kind of omnipresent all
2:20:58
knowing entity that you have around you, that you can kind of
2:21:01
like talk to in a in a silent, you know, private confident way
2:21:05
with with no judgement. Not everyone is sold yet.
2:21:08
It sounds like it's designed by people that don't know how to
2:21:11
make friends. But
2:21:12
Tech professor Ahmed banaba, who's tried many AI devices week
2:21:17
says this might hit the mark,
2:21:19
it's in mind me with the case when you are we have a very
2:21:22
close friend and you feel comfortable saying, you know
2:21:25
some kind of a dumb thing to that friend without worrying
2:21:28
that they're gonna judge you.
2:21:30
The company says the device will cost $99 when it's available, no
2:21:34
subscription necessary. And it'll essentially work like
2:21:37
this. Put the lanyard around the neck. It'll have a pendant at
2:21:41
the end of it. You push a button on the pendant, and it will give
2:21:44
you encouragement, advice or feedback on whatever it is
2:21:49
you've been talking about. Yes, it listens all the time. But the
2:21:53
company says it will not store any audio recordings. Schiffman
2:21:57
believes it's an example of how AI can help. You know, I think
2:22:02
having an AI friend that will say like oh, good luck on the
2:22:05
interview will increase your productivity far more than it
2:22:07
reminding you that it's in five minutes. In fact, after we
2:22:10
spoke, he sent me this text from his friend named Emily saying
2:22:15
that he nailed the interview
2:22:20
John C Dvorak: his friends named Emily Hello.
2:22:23
Adam Curry: So I think there's so product conversations. Yeah,
2:22:26
go ahead. Well,
2:22:27
John C Dvorak: I think it's a good idea, by the way. And I'll
2:22:29
tell you why. We had a conversation that dinner table
2:22:31
and JC had some stats about how different generational groups
2:22:36
have less and less friends to the Z group. The Zeds the zeros
2:22:41
wherever you want to call them. The Zoomers. Zoomers, they
2:22:43
pretty much have zero friends. They they have like, it's their
2:22:48
average number of friends outside. You know, besides
2:22:52
outside the family is one. Yes. Well, you go to the millennials,
2:22:57
it's like four or five and you go to the everything else is a
2:23:00
little higher, at least is that many, but it's not one.
2:23:04
Adam Curry: I think there's some some real exit strategy
2:23:06
opportunities for us here. First of all, I think it'd be great
2:23:09
just have an AI called God. You know that he said it was like
2:23:13
having God with you all the time. Okay, good. You can do
2:23:16
that. Or how about your real friend, which is Adam and John.
2:23:20
And we're gonna we're not gonna we're gonna be real friends.
2:23:23
Like, you look like crap.
2:23:27
John C Dvorak: But looks big. Tuck your shirt in.
2:23:31
Adam Curry: Show up on time. Get off my lawn.
2:23:37
John C Dvorak: So I didn't nagging duo.
2:23:39
Adam Curry: Real real friends, real friends, friends. Real
2:23:43
Friends do who really care about you? It's like, no, the essay
2:23:47
sucks. Get off chat. Get off Twitter. Yeah, get up. Get out
2:23:53
of bed. Get out of bed. That's what you want. Da. I agree. I
2:24:00
think it's a good idea. It's so simple. And it's just another
2:24:04
chatbot that's the only thing AI is good at. Except for no agenda
2:24:08
art. No agenda, art chat bots, and maybe maybe some of those
2:24:13
ads I'm seeing run for Kamala Harris on the Olympics. That
2:24:16
doesn't sound like her. Sounds like they might have sampled her
2:24:20
and have a bot doing it. I don't know. It's just just my feeling.
2:24:24
John C Dvorak: I do like to samples. I like to do funny
2:24:27
voices in the humor you can create with them. Yeah. The
2:24:30
videos not as good as the desert voiced itself. Of
2:24:33
Adam Curry: course, this is vaporware. There's no product
2:24:35
yet. But we could do that. We could do a vaporware version of
2:24:41
it. Oh,
2:24:42
John C Dvorak: this is the way to go. You're
2:24:44
Adam Curry: no agenda real friend amulet. We should just
2:24:47
call it an amulet
2:24:50
John C Dvorak: the ambulance the ambulance. Hey,
2:24:52
Adam Curry: you go. I have yes please.
2:24:55
John C Dvorak: I wanted to try to get Venezuela out of the way
2:24:57
so these clips is different last show.
2:24:59
Adam Curry: Yeah, me it, can we well, I let's talk about it when
2:25:02
you're done because I'm curious what your thoughts are on this.
2:25:08
John C Dvorak: Well, let's play I got both NTD and NPR. I would
2:25:11
like to play the two parter from NTD. Venezuela one and two
2:25:15
Venezuela
2:25:16
Unknown: socialist President Nicolas Maduro ordered military
2:25:19
and police to patrol across the country starting Wednesday.
2:25:22
protests continue inside Venezuela as many claim the
2:25:25
incumbent government committed election fraud to stay in power.
2:25:29
A rights group says at least 16 people have been killed in the
2:25:32
protests so far. Venezuelan authorities say nearly 750
2:25:36
people have been arrested and Maduro now also wants opposition
2:25:40
leaders to be arrested blaming them for the protests against
2:25:43
his leadership.
2:25:47
We have held back we will uncover and capture them all,
2:25:50
and we will be victorious once again victorious. The
2:25:54
opposition says its candidate at Mondo Gonzalez had more than
2:25:57
twice as many votes as Maduro based on 90% of vote tallies.
2:26:01
This would mean the end of 25 years of Socialist rule in
2:26:04
Venezuela.
2:26:07
With these numbers, we will begin the reconstruction of
2:26:09
Venezuela hand in hand with all of you.
2:26:13
international support for the opposition is now mounting. Peru
2:26:16
says it recognizes Gonzalez as the actual president elect and
2:26:20
Argentina, Chile, Costa Rica and Uruguay say they don't recognize
2:26:25
the results of the election. And Florida Senator Rick Scott is
2:26:28
calling on Biden to do the same and recognize Gonzalez as the
2:26:31
actual president elect. Republican Senator John Hoeven
2:26:35
told NTD he's in favor of Senator Scott's demands. Senator
2:26:38
Scott's right. I mean, it's a sham elections ridiculous.
2:26:41
Maduro doesn't hold free and open elections. It's ludicrous
2:26:44
and everybody knows it, and we should speak out against it. The
2:26:48
White House on Wednesday was asked if it recognizes Gonzalez
2:26:51
as the actual president elect.
2:26:52
We want to see the full tabulated data from the polling
2:26:55
places we want to see something that can be verifiable.
2:26:58
The State Department on Wednesday said it's patience for
2:27:01
Maduro is running out citing new Independent reports.
2:27:05
Venezuela's 20 2004 presidential election did not meet
2:27:09
international standards of electoral integrity and cannot
2:27:12
be considered democratic.
2:27:13
Adam Curry: Wow, amazing. The amazing you know that you
2:27:16
Smartmatic machines. So it's quite interesting that in this
2:27:20
case, the Biden administration like is rigged. It's no good
2:27:26
scams, no good. That can't possibly be right. But
2:27:31
John C Dvorak: I find weird weird is the fact that he did
2:27:35
these elections thinking he could win. Well, he's smoking
2:27:39
his own dope has no Camela. This paper, part two,
2:27:45
Unknown: the Organization of American States or OAS held a
2:27:47
meeting today to address the results of the Venezuelan
2:27:50
election entities Washington correspondent Luis Martinez has
2:27:54
more on this story. The
2:27:56
governments of 11 countries in the region requested the OAS to
2:28:00
have a special meeting of the permanent council here in
2:28:03
Washington DC to discuss the electoral process in Venezuela.
2:28:06
The OAS is the multilateral regional body dedicated to human
2:28:10
rights, electoral oversight and economic and human development.
2:28:14
We want
2:28:15
the Messala to publish the results with transparencies. We
2:28:20
want to encourage the protection of all the opposition figures,
2:28:25
we want the Venezuelan authorities to respect the
2:28:28
introduction of asylum. And also we will want to see if the
2:28:33
contrast is continuing some independence organizations to
2:28:39
make an auditing of the results of the winners for lung
2:28:42
elections.
2:28:43
It's important to note that in 2019, the OAS, the United States
2:28:47
and 50 other countries in the world move to recognize the then
2:28:50
opposition leader Juan guaido as the legitimate president of
2:28:53
Venezuela until 2023, when the Venezuelan opposition does solve
2:28:58
the interim government. While the expectation
2:29:00
that we have is and Mondo Gonzalez should be recognized as
2:29:05
the president elected of Venezuela. This is something
2:29:08
that is not imposed, it was the will of the vast majority of
2:29:10
Venezuelans to the point that Mundell one Silas has achieved
2:29:16
at the biggest margin in a presidential election in the
2:29:19
history of Venezuela.
2:29:21
Adam Curry: So, of course, your no agenda show has a boots on
2:29:25
the ground report.
2:29:27
John C Dvorak: Remember guaido Yeah, Bronco Venezuela Edo.
2:29:30
Adam Curry: Yeah, I remember that guy. He looked like Obama.
2:29:34
Yeah, of course. Yeah. He
2:29:35
John C Dvorak: said Obama clone. Jose
2:29:37
Adam Curry: Carlos Cueto, writes in says My dad is a Venezuelan
2:29:40
PhD in political science professor expert on political
2:29:43
campaigns and political commentator, and he sent me some
2:29:47
links which unusable for the show. The situation in Venezuela
2:29:50
is dire. The National Electoral electoral council has announced
2:29:53
Maduro 150 2% against 44 of the top opposition candidate Edmundo
2:29:58
Gonzalez, or Thea Machado is team was able to secure over 24
2:30:05
and a half 1000 Voting Machine receipts, each verified,
2:30:09
certified and signed by six different citizens, a president
2:30:13
a secretary, a member to witnesses and the operator of
2:30:15
the polling machine. These polling machine receipts were
2:30:18
scanned and uploaded to this website link attach. Machado
2:30:23
secured 81% of all polling machine receipts with the help
2:30:26
of many citizens and witnesses the receipt show Gonzalez or TIA
2:30:30
more than doubles Maduro and votes even if you give Maduro
2:30:33
all the remaining votes, he doesn't have enough to claim a
2:30:35
victory. And so Jose sent this in as any and I guess Bobby The
2:30:41
Op was kind of cagey about all this didn't really just say hey,
2:30:47
this is all be a scam.
2:30:52
John C Dvorak: Or what he has to do with it.
2:30:55
Adam Curry: Bobby The Op has been tweeting about it.
2:30:58
John C Dvorak: Well, here's the last clip I have which is from
2:30:59
NPR which is a slightly softer
2:31:04
Unknown: horse. Yes. One of the few international observers
2:31:07
allowed him to monitor Venezuela's contested
2:31:09
presidential elections says that contest was anything but fair
2:31:13
and free. Incumbent leader Nicolas Maduro was declared
2:31:16
winner of Sunday's presidential election in a race. The
2:31:18
opposition says it one appears Carrie Kahn reports
2:31:22
the Atlantic based Carter Center says the contest did not meet
2:31:25
international standards and cannot be considered democratic
2:31:29
invited to observe the electoral process by the government. The
2:31:32
election observers listed numerous violations committed by
2:31:36
Venezuela's electoral council, which is packed with Maduro
2:31:39
loyalists among them favored media coverage and harassment of
2:31:43
opposition candidates. The center blasted authorities for
2:31:46
its total lack of transparency. The council has refused to make
2:31:50
public voter tally sheets that according to Venezuelan law
2:31:53
should be publicized. Opponents of Maduro say they have the
2:31:57
tally sheets for more than 80% of precincts, and it shows
2:32:01
candidate at Moondog Gonzalez, overwhelmingly one
2:32:05
Adam Curry: I met two people from Venezuela at the citizens
2:32:09
defending freedom conference at that dinner and one is a
2:32:13
harpist. I think he may be a famous harpist, and they're
2:32:18
very, very nice people. So we are here. I'm doing their
2:32:21
accent. We are here because we want to warn everybody that this
2:32:26
does not happen to America what happened in Venezuela. Now
2:32:30
they're really they're going everywhere they all over this
2:32:32
his word going through Texas or talking to anybody playing the
2:32:35
harp letting everybody know you do not want this to happen in
2:32:39
America as we came to America. I feel good about that. This
2:32:45
Kamala is no good. Didn't say that but could have
2:32:50
John C Dvorak: she's the socialists do that.
2:32:55
Adam Curry: I think you should not travel. Certainly not to
2:32:58
Southern California. Surely you know why? No, I don't know why.
2:33:03
COVID on the rise baby from tourists. Oh
2:33:06
Unknown: was
2:33:07
when so up so high six vaccinations every time they
2:33:10
come out with a new one.
2:33:11
I always get it to locals.
2:33:13
I just think it's better to be safe than sorry
2:33:15
people out in Hollywood on Friday afternoon say they're
2:33:17
being more cautious. I have a
2:33:20
master three right now just started carrying him again.
2:33:26
Three, Johnson says he started masking up again after seeing
2:33:29
elected officials contracting the virus. President Biden
2:33:32
announced he was dropping out of the 2024 bid for reelection.
2:33:36
Wow, self isolating and Delaware Mayor bass tested positive for
2:33:40
COVID 19. In late June, the start of some of the worst
2:33:43
numbers Los Angeles has seen in two years, the number of
2:33:46
reported COVID cases doubling in just the last four weeks
2:33:49
according to new data from the LA County Public Health. The
2:33:53
levels of COVID in wastewater has also nearly doubled since
2:33:56
last winter's P. The Department of Epidemiology at UCLA says
2:34:01
this number is more concerning because
2:34:04
it's really telling you on a population level. What are we
2:34:07
seeing are you not relying on people going in testing
2:34:10
reporting symptoms,
2:34:12
while hospitalizations have also doubled COVID deaths remain
2:34:15
stable. Whitetail remind says people should get a refresher on
2:34:19
COVID symptoms
2:34:20
you have symptoms, cough, cold, cold symptoms, congestion, runny
2:34:27
nose
2:34:27
and avoid contact with elderly or women who are pregnant while
2:34:32
hand sanitizing is still a great way to prevent the virus.
2:34:37
Because yeah, everybody does something for mine
2:34:39
says masks are still the top favorite.
2:34:43
I think that the masks are the most effective way of reducing
2:34:47
spread of the virus.
2:34:48
Now health officials also warn everybody that school is right
2:34:51
around the corner. So it's important now to stay healthy to
2:34:56
avoid any sort of bigger potential peak problem this fall
2:35:00
All right.
2:35:01
Adam Curry: So Los Angeles still all in on the masking
2:35:04
everybody's mask, if you notice if you see any B roll of
2:35:09
Democrat operatives working anywhere, they're all masked up.
2:35:14
You look at the you know, Kamala for President people. They're
2:35:17
all masked up. Everyone's everyone's there. They're
2:35:20
showing us who they are again, it's
2:35:21
John C Dvorak: Korea criminals.
2:35:24
Adam Curry: The criminal, the criminal, yeah, sort
2:35:26
John C Dvorak: of mask. You wear a mask if you're a criminal.
2:35:28
It's so
2:35:30
Adam Curry: sad. Five countries in Europe mercy which by the
2:35:34
way,
2:35:35
John C Dvorak: they went on and on and on and on about a
2:35:37
doubling if it goes from one to two is doubling. Yes, no, it's
2:35:41
doubling if it goes from two to four, that's doubling. Is it
2:35:44
going from one to two or two to four? Is it going from 5000 to
2:35:48
10,000? They never say, Well, why would you This is such a
2:35:51
bogus report. This
2:35:52
Adam Curry: is just to get you to wear a mask you silly man.
2:35:55
Maska kids choke up. Belgium, Germany, Greece, Latvia and
2:36:00
Portugal are going to test a new vaccination card in a variety of
2:36:04
formats, including printed cards, mailed copies and digital
2:36:07
versions for smart cards. Smartphones. Yes, beautiful. I
2:36:14
have a this is a boots on the ground report from our nurse
2:36:17
Jamie. It's not a happy one. So I want to say that we know that
2:36:22
many of our producers were forced to keep their jobs by
2:36:27
taking a vaccination. We think a lot of them luckily got j&j.
2:36:32
Well, luckily, who knows? But probably didn't go for more than
2:36:38
two we hope. So I'm saying this with
2:36:41
John C Dvorak: a j&j and never had to get to is just to get the
2:36:44
one and done right. And it wasn't mRNA. So, you know, is
2:36:48
the dino virus different
2:36:50
Adam Curry: but but the report I have is rather dire. And so I
2:36:53
just want to preface that by saying we love you. No matter
2:36:57
what.
2:36:59
John C Dvorak: Nurse Jamie, a lot of people out there they got
2:37:02
this shot. I mean, it's not going to it's a percentage. game
2:37:06
you're playing at that point. Nurse Jamie getting booster
2:37:09
after booster after booster. If you're doing that listening to
2:37:11
the show, I think that's a little bit much.
2:37:13
Adam Curry: Nurse Jamie says I want to give you boots on the
2:37:15
ground and healthcare. I've been a nurse for more than 10 years
2:37:18
as a float nurse and admitted and in administration. The level
2:37:24
of turbo cancers we are seeing right now is mind blowing. So
2:37:28
many patients with new diagnosis of cancer and as always stage
2:37:32
four non curable some of them given weeks to live. The common
2:37:37
thing I'm noticing is they all have had at least three jabs. So
2:37:42
vaccinated plus a booster if not more. Just this week, we had a
2:37:46
patient diagnosed with three new cancers, two different
2:37:51
metastatic cancers plus leukemia. This person just
2:37:55
happened to be up to date on vaccine status. I have seen
2:37:59
overdue for dose nine. So I'm assuming they had all nine.
2:38:06
That's up to date. I've never seen anyone diagnosed with two
2:38:09
different cancers at the same time, let alone three. The
2:38:13
correlation is very clear to me. It's heartbreaking to know these
2:38:16
people have been poisoned and have no idea. So I know it's not
2:38:22
uplifting, but I felt there was no one else the media, your
2:38:26
legacy does not talk about this. Your legacy media doesn't talk
2:38:30
about this. They
2:38:31
John C Dvorak: can't just take a look at who advertises on legacy
2:38:34
media.
2:38:35
Adam Curry: And what do you think if we had a Patreon?
2:38:38
John C Dvorak: We'd be kicked off. Exactly. Macy Gray and
2:38:42
people should have just come to appreciate what we're up to and
2:38:46
how we're doing it. Because there's no way that this is
2:38:49
possible without their help. Correct.
2:38:52
Adam Curry: Period. Are you familiar with the singer Macy
2:38:55
Gray? Yeah, of course. Well, she was on the MTV reality show The
2:39:02
Surreal Life villa of secrets. And she was rushed to the
2:39:07
hospital after she had an on air emergency because of the side
2:39:13
effects of her GLP one is that the article says specifically
2:39:18
ozempic This is another product that we have been talking about
2:39:24
for since they since since it the dosage changed from
2:39:29
something for diabetics, which I think there's there's usage in
2:39:34
in low dosage for diabetics that that's been clear for over a
2:39:37
decade. That's been around, but how people are using it now to
2:39:42
lose weight is just wrong. Particularly those who just want
2:39:48
to look better. And the guy who wrote the book, we played clips
2:39:52
from him John Jo Han Hari, when he just wrote the book about
2:39:57
cars he went on GLP one he looks pretty good. By the way, I'll
2:40:00
say but he stopped taking it. And here's a quick clip of the
2:40:05
most recent interview he did, which I thought was worth
2:40:08
sharing.
2:40:08
Unknown: Obviously, this triggers a huge amount of muscle
2:40:11
mass loss. And there's real worries with that, right? If you
2:40:15
lose muscle mass, you naturally lose muscle mass from when
2:40:18
you're 30 onwards, anyway, you lose quite a lot every year,
2:40:20
it's incredibly depressing. When you look at the figures, you
2:40:22
lose muscle mass naturally, every year anyway. If you lose
2:40:26
too much muscle mass, you won't, you'll be a bit weaker now. But
2:40:30
the real risks are when you're older. So if you have really low
2:40:34
muscle mass, when you're older, you're at risk of a condition
2:40:37
called sarcopenia, which is Greek for poverty of the flesh,
2:40:40
basically just means you're really struggled to climb the
2:40:43
stairs, do any kind of physical activity, you're more likely to
2:40:47
fall, if you do fall, you're more likely to die. It's quite a
2:40:50
serious thing. And this, I think, is particularly going to
2:40:52
be an issue for people who are already skinny, like the people
2:40:57
at that party we were talking about right at the start, none
2:40:59
of them were fat at the start, right? People who were already
2:41:01
skinny, who were taking it to be super skinny, they're gonna see,
2:41:05
they're gonna have real issues with their muscle mass likely
2:41:07
when they're older. So this is a very serious problem, we could
2:41:10
be building up a time bomb of more frail older people further
2:41:14
down the line.
2:41:15
Adam Curry: I believe, as I believe it, we have a whole
2:41:18
generation of people just breaking in half while they're
2:41:21
standing in line. So sad.
2:41:26
John C Dvorak: Happy news today and no agenda.
2:41:28
Adam Curry: Well, there is good news, there's yet another
2:41:30
ozempic. A new version, this is even better than last new and
2:41:34
improved
2:41:35
Unknown: Aysen picker will go V produces an average of 15% loss
2:41:39
of body weight over a year Manjaro causes a loss of 21% On
2:41:44
average, and the next one that will come down the line is
2:41:47
probably going to come out next year, Triple G causes 24.2%. The
2:41:51
reason Manjaro works differently. So this only works
2:41:53
on GLP. One, when djaro adds another gut hormone tip. So it
2:41:57
works on two gut hormones, not just one. And Triple G works on
2:42:01
three gut hormones, and there's going to be more and more drugs.
2:42:04
I mean, there's 37 gut hormones that can affect appetite, they
2:42:07
think so there's gonna be lots of variants of these drugs, with
2:42:11
different side effects profiles, different risks, different
2:42:13
benefits.
2:42:14
Adam Curry: Triple G now I love it. Triple
2:42:17
John C Dvorak: G is named after a boxer from like about 15 years
2:42:21
ago.
2:42:21
Adam Curry: Well, I think 4g is incoming. I mean this is they
2:42:25
have 37 G's they can go to I what you got, I got 35 G Oh,
2:42:29
man, you look great
2:42:30
Unknown: news. Good news.
2:42:33
Good news. Good news. Good news. That
2:42:36
Adam Curry: concludes your good news segment for today.
2:42:42
John C Dvorak: Sorry about Lebanon before we go. Oh,
2:42:44
Adam Curry: the Lebanon. Yeah. Can I can I play one quick clip
2:42:49
before you talk about Lebanon? Sure. Let me see where is it?
2:42:56
Because we got a lot of pushback about the smart bomb. And then
2:43:03
you know, there's been some while here it is. This is what
2:43:06
John C Dvorak: do we say about the smart bomb that would elicit
2:43:09
push
2:43:09
Adam Curry: back because the New York Times came out right away
2:43:13
and said no, no, no, no, no, no, no, it was a bomb and it was
2:43:18
planted there two months earlier. Oh, yes.
2:43:21
John C Dvorak: Oh, okay. Yeah, the the fancy bomb or the fancy
2:43:25
missile that went through the guys Windows supposedly the I
2:43:28
have the background on this too. But I suppose it wasn't data at
2:43:32
all. It was bogus. It was just somebody bragging unnecessarily.
2:43:36
And it was actually a bomb that was planted a month and a half
2:43:40
the way I understand.
2:43:42
Adam Curry: I'm not believing that. I just see pretty
2:43:45
John C Dvorak: sketchy deals do they have no housekeeping there
2:43:49
that may that comes in and out of that hotel room. I never
2:43:53
noticed there's a bomb in the room for a month.
2:43:56
Adam Curry: Well listen to this report, the US
2:43:57
Unknown: announced plans to move a fighter jet squadron to the
2:44:00
Middle East and maintain an aircraft carrier in the region
2:44:03
amidst growing tensions. The announcement was made after US
2:44:07
President Joe Biden said he was very concerned at the prospect
2:44:10
of escalating violence in the area. The Secretary
2:44:13
will be directing multiple forthcoming fought force posture
2:44:17
moves to bolster force for US forces regionwide to provide
2:44:22
elevated support to the defense of Israel and to ensure the
2:44:25
United States is prepared to respond to this evolving crisis.
2:44:28
In terms of what specifics that means. I don't have that for you
2:44:31
right now.
2:44:32
Hundreds of Palestinians in Beirut held a symbolic funeral
2:44:35
for the Hamas leader who had been assassinated in Tehran. In
2:44:38
addition to the recent assassination of a Hezbollah
2:44:41
commander in Beirut, the region is faced with all our war, Iran
2:44:44
has threatened to respond after the attack on a territory and
2:44:48
Israel has vowed to kill her mass leaders over the group's
2:44:51
October 7 attack on Israel. Now
2:44:53
Adam Curry: the thing that I couldn't show you here, they
2:44:57
showed a HELOC. copter you know those night vision shots of of
2:45:04
the guy safe house blowing up. So who was in the helicopter
2:45:09
filming it? It had to be the same people who shot from the
2:45:14
grassy knoll while
2:45:16
Unknown: in Teheran is my honey I was assassinated in a heinous
2:45:19
attack carried out by Israel. So how did this attack happen? Due
2:45:23
to the social media blackout imposed by Iran, we have very
2:45:26
few clues. However, TRT world evaluated potential scenarios
2:45:31
based on the available information. Whether it was a
2:45:33
rocket or drone attack, we know the direction it came from, the
2:45:37
attack might have been carried out with a mini drone or rocket
2:45:40
launched from the hills overlooking the building. This
2:45:42
possibility seems strong because the drone loaded with RDX
2:45:46
explosives and could achieve a low flame explosion that leaves
2:45:49
this kind of impact, or it might have been carried out from the
2:45:53
north of Tehran by an aircraft carrying a longer range missile.
2:45:57
We see that the roof on the side whether tack room is located is
2:46:00
intact. This indicates that the rocket or drone entered directly
2:46:04
through the window. Since there are no burn marks at the point
2:46:07
where the building was hit. The primary suspect is the US made
2:46:11
our MX hellfire missile. This weapon which has a range of 11
2:46:15
Kilometer must have been fired from an aircraft to hit the
2:46:18
building. Some Western media outlets claimed that a remotely
2:46:21
controlled explosive device was placed under his bed. Iranian
2:46:26
media on the other hand, argue that the attack was carried out
2:46:29
using a projectile
2:46:30
Adam Curry: and here's Al Jazeera
2:46:32
Unknown: to breaking news coming out of Iran now where the
2:46:34
Revolutionary Guard has released a statement on Hamas leader
2:46:38
Ismail honey as assassination. They say Hamas chief honey was
2:46:42
killed by firing a short range projectile with a warhead of
2:46:46
about seven kgs accompanied by a severe explosion from outside
2:46:52
his room. We'll have more on that
2:46:56
when we get us
2:46:57
Adam Curry: so AlJazeera says it was both
2:47:04
John C Dvorak: Well, there's some disinformation going around
2:47:07
for some reason this is being promoted since it's possible
2:47:12
that the first report is the is the right report, which is one
2:47:16
of these Hellfires that goes right into the window and kills
2:47:18
you and it was like wait a minute should we did we get you
2:47:23
know what we gave you that missile for this purpose? But
2:47:27
not you're supposed to tell brag about it you're just supposed to
2:47:31
Shut up What are we going to do now all will make up some
2:47:36
stories and so they now they have a confusion of stories one
2:47:40
says this one says that one says it's a drone one says it's a
2:47:43
missile one thing or after another and inside a bomb inside
2:47:47
there's there for a month and a half. And so it's possible to
2:47:51
just trying to muddy the waters and it was what it was to begin
2:47:54
with.
2:47:54
Adam Curry: I think there's reasons for that. Yeah. Do you
2:47:56
want to play on clips?
2:47:59
John C Dvorak: Yes, we got so all hell's breaking loose now
2:48:02
because they killed another guy. And and they're worried sick
2:48:06
about Lebanon. I want to play NPR. Well, yeah, but I have a
2:48:12
bunch of different clips and I want to at least get this one
2:48:15
out of the way which is this is there'll be some redundant
2:48:20
information. But let's start with Gaza update. One Israel's
2:48:23
army
2:48:24
Unknown: says it launched two airstrikes in the West Bank
2:48:26
today and killed nine Palestinian militants. The
2:48:29
attack came as tensions mount over a possible expansion of the
2:48:32
Mideast war to include Hezbollah militant forces in Lebanon,
2:48:36
Israel and Hezbollah have fought twice before but NPRs Greg Miry,
2:48:39
who covered both of those conflicts, says Hezbollah has a
2:48:43
greater advantage this time.
2:48:44
Hezbollah's arsenal of rockets supplied by Iran is
2:48:48
exponentially larger than before back in 2006. It was estimated
2:48:52
to be around 15,000. Now the estimate is 150,000. These are
2:48:58
larger, more precise weapons that can reach far deeper into
2:49:02
Israel, including Tel Aviv
2:49:04
ceasefire talks, meanwhile, have resumed in Egypt. The US is
2:49:08
beefing up its military presence in the Middle East. It's an
2:49:11
effort to defend Israel and protect US troops from possible
2:49:14
attacks by Iran and its proxies. MPRs Giuliana Kim reports
2:49:18
defense
2:49:19
secretary Lloyd Austin said he's sending more fighter jets to the
2:49:22
Middle East, as well as more Navy cruisers and destroyers to
2:49:26
that region and Europe. The new military measures are in
2:49:29
response to growing tensions between Israel and Iran after
2:49:33
top leaders from the militant groups Hamas and Hezbollah were
2:49:36
killed. On Saturday. Iran's Revolutionary Guard said Iran's
2:49:40
retaliation will be quote severe and quote According to Reuters,
2:49:45
Israel vowed to kill Hamas leaders in response to the
2:49:48
group's October 7 attack. The current conflict between Israel
2:49:52
and Hamas and the war in Gaza have nearly spanned 10 months
2:49:55
now remains to be seen how the recent assassinations will
2:49:59
affect on ongoing ceasefire talks. We
2:50:02
Adam Curry: have boots on the ground from the region, which
2:50:04
I'd like to share not too long from our dude named Muhammad.
2:50:09
And he picks up a thread that we started that you started
2:50:12
actually said ITM gents. Is it me? Or does it seem that every
2:50:16
single powerful Iranian or Iranian proxy figure vanishes
2:50:20
unexpectedly? It seems like someone is systematically
2:50:24
getting rid of them. After each assassination, there'll be a
2:50:27
couple of days or color of colorful rhetoric followed by
2:50:31
coordination for a very clean response that doesn't hurt
2:50:34
anyone, and brightly lit missiles or drones that are
2:50:37
intercepted by the Iron Dome. So both parties can claim some
2:50:41
victory and have some good visuals for their site for their
2:50:44
for their side social media accounts. The Iron Dome
2:50:48
showcases an extra ad break that all parties appreciate. Killing
2:50:52
the guy in an Iranian safe house is a little bit too much,
2:50:55
though. Just like atoms, Iranian friends, a lot of people in this
2:50:59
region think the Iranian regime is coordinating every step with
2:51:02
the US and Israel. I'm going to do I'm going to take that what a
2:51:08
great ad for the military industrial complex. And move
2:51:12
moving aircraft carrier move out boys move out more money,
2:51:16
beautiful ships, big beautiful ships to protect to protect our
2:51:20
troops.
2:51:23
John C Dvorak: So that was fascinating. Yeah, I agree with
2:51:25
that. I was fascinated with this idea. There's 150,000 missiles
2:51:30
ready to be shot at Israel. Yeah. And so there was an
2:51:33
expanded version of Meyer is a fact he comes on and reports on
2:51:36
this. In this three parter, this is the Lebanon Lebanon War. What
2:51:43
are we going to get to is this going to happen again or not?
2:51:45
Here we go.
2:51:46
Unknown: The United States is urging its citizens in Lebanon
2:51:49
leave the country immediately amid growing concerns of a
2:51:52
regional conflict in the Middle East. This follows two attacks
2:51:56
blamed on Israel this week, which killed leaders of
2:51:58
Hezbollah and Hamas. It prompted threats of retaliation. Israel
2:52:03
and the Lebanese group Hezbollah have fought two previous wars
2:52:06
won in 1996, the other in 2006 and prs. Greg, my recovered both
2:52:11
of those conflicts. He was recently reporting from Israel
2:52:14
and joins me now. Hey, Greg. Hi, Scott. Nice. Can you describe
2:52:18
how those two earlier wars started and then played out?
2:52:21
Yeah,
2:52:21
there were a number of similarities that still hold
2:52:24
true today. In both conflicts, Israel and Hezbollah were
2:52:28
exchanging regular but lower level fire just like now before
2:52:32
it escalated into a full scale war. Both times Israel thought
2:52:36
it would teach Hezbollah a quick and painful lesson. And that
2:52:40
fighting in 1996 was quite intense. But Hezbollah held its
2:52:44
ground and proved a much tougher opponent than Israel
2:52:46
anticipated. I covered that first war from the Lebanese
2:52:50
side. The fighting lasted more than two weeks. And then it
2:52:53
ended shortly after Israel fired on a Hezbollah position, but
2:52:58
missed the mark and hit Lebanese civilians taking shelter at a un
2:53:02
compound. More than 100 civilians were killed. This
2:53:05
caused international outrage, the fighting stopped, nothing
2:53:09
was resolved. Nothing
2:53:10
was resolved. And then another war a decade later in 2006.
2:53:16
Adam Curry: Wow, this is this is a deja vu of epic proportion.
2:53:21
It's classic. You know, when I was doing pirate radio in the
2:53:25
80s This song was like top of the charts, the Human League,
2:53:30
the Lebanon. Which was in itself a cycle of 1969. This is crazy.
2:53:39
It's just a cycle. It's time. You
2:53:43
John C Dvorak: mean cycles. Here we go into part two of this and
2:53:45
then another war a decade later in 2006.
2:53:48
Unknown: Yeah, Scott, the dynamics were very similar,
2:53:51
though this time the fighting was on a much larger scale. Both
2:53:54
sides fired rockets nonstop around the clock. Imagine this
2:53:59
rainbow of rockets flying in both directions across the
2:54:02
border. And bizarrely, one relatively safe place to be was
2:54:07
right on the border beneath this rainbow of rockets flying
2:54:11
overhead. So this time, I was on the Israeli side in the border
2:54:15
town of Missoula for much of the five week war, both sides
2:54:18
suffered heavy casualties. Neither side made any tangible
2:54:22
gains. And this war also ended in a draw. So we
2:54:26
have that context. We have this increased amount of tension and
2:54:30
concern right now and 2024. What do you think these two previous
2:54:34
wars suggest about what a third war might look like?
2:54:37
Well, a third one could be even more destructive. Hezbollah's
2:54:41
arsenal of rockets are supplied by Iran is exponentially larger
2:54:46
than before back in 2006. It was estimated to be around 15,000.
2:54:50
Now the estimate is 150,000. These are larger, more precise
2:54:56
weapons that can reach far deeper into Israel, including
2:54:59
Tel Aviv We've spoke about this with Paul Salem of the Middle
2:55:02
East Institute, who's based in Beirut.
2:55:05
Hezbollah is a very accomplished very tough, very well equipped,
2:55:09
very well trained and learns very quickly from war to war.
2:55:13
And the 2006 War was proof of what they'd learned from 1996.
2:55:19
And one must imagine that in 2024, they will even be much
2:55:23
more capable and more advanced.
2:55:25
Adam Curry: There is a dynamite phrase in that clip. Did you
2:55:28
catch it? No. Rainbow
2:55:34
Unknown: rainbow of rockets
2:55:35
Adam Curry: rainbow of rockets has been good show title rainbow
2:55:39
of rods down rainbow.
2:55:44
John C Dvorak: If you know it's almost reminds me of that joke
2:55:48
with a guy says I'm losing money on each watermelon. What do you
2:55:51
need to do to fix a problem buy more trucks? Which is
2:55:55
essentially what they're doing here with what's what did we
2:55:59
learn? What are we learning? We're smart learners. We need
2:56:03
more rockets. Yeah, that'll get so now they've got 150,000
2:56:07
rockets that they're going to launch into Israel if this thing
2:56:10
breaks out, which nobody wants. So this
2:56:13
Adam Curry: is where Trump's Iron Dome gets promoted. Men
2:56:16
build a big, beautiful,
2:56:18
John C Dvorak: the whole room. Everything is all interlinked.
2:56:21
It's all connected higher. So here we go at the end of this
2:56:24
with a some summary doesn't take us anywhere, really. But at
2:56:28
least it's worth knowing. Could
2:56:30
Unknown: the prospect of a clearly very damaging more keep
2:56:33
both sides from escalating beyond what we've seen?
2:56:36
Well, that's been the thinking since they started exchanging
2:56:39
fire 10 months ago, just after Hamas invaded southern Israel,
2:56:43
however, Israel killed this top Hezbollah leader with an
2:56:46
airstrike in Beirut on Tuesday. That's raised the prospect that
2:56:50
the fighting could escalate. Now, Paul Salem says Hezbollah
2:56:53
and Iran have made clear they don't want a major war. But they
2:56:58
now say that if Israel wants a full scale fight, they're ready
2:57:02
for it. We should note Lebanon faces chronic political and
2:57:06
economic problems and a war would be devastating. And Israel
2:57:09
is already stretched thin by the war in Gaza, a second front
2:57:13
would be a tremendous burden on that country. Salem and other
2:57:17
analysts say if Israel can work out a ceasefire with Hamas in
2:57:21
Gaza, that would almost certainly result in a ceasefire
2:57:24
with Hezbollah in general. That's
2:57:26
him. Perez Greg Myrick. Greg, thanks so much.
2:57:28
Sure. Thanks, Scott.
2:57:29
Adam Curry: Sure, Thanks, Scott. Well you know, I was talking to
2:57:35
the oil baron and you know, the shale in the US the shale oil
2:57:40
and thinking that we get tons Yeah, but I think the it's not
2:57:44
the cheapest oil no
2:57:46
John C Dvorak: Alberta's got more than we do you think Yeah,
2:57:49
but you
2:57:49
Adam Curry: need like 60 bucks a barrel minimum? I think for
2:57:53
John C Dvorak: sure that's why the shale all of a sudden when
2:57:56
price of oil stabilizes at a high number all of a sudden all
2:58:00
the shale oil comes online right so let's say when it drops back
2:58:03
to 40 they all shut down yes. So let's
2:58:07
Adam Curry: just say by the way the oil baron I think he he buys
2:58:11
mature fields and then you know so he turns them on and off
2:58:15
whenever he needs to they guess like some great business model
2:58:17
I'm trying it's basically
2:58:19
John C Dvorak: the oil business if you know what you're doing
2:58:21
you can do well you basically
2:58:22
Adam Curry: have to buy land a lot of land just got to keep
2:58:24
leasing leasing leasing so let's what has not happened what even
2:58:30
now is like oil is not skyrocketing in price it's not
2:58:34
happening. You've you've been tracking this better than I have
2:58:37
but it gets up at 85 It's not going to 150 We just don't see
2:58:43
it. But But isn't it about time art or life imitates art and we
2:58:51
sink a ship in the Straits of Hormuz isn't that was really
2:58:55
needed so we just blocked that whole thing that would really
2:59:00
shoot the oil price up which everybody wants Yeah, they seem
2:59:05
to yeah um then the oil baron can pick me up in his in his in
2:59:09
his jet and his jet from one of them will go fly and get one of
2:59:12
those shrimp deals. Yeah,
2:59:14
John C Dvorak: go to Vegas and have some shrimp over ice.
2:59:19
Adam Curry: You got anything else on Lebanon any other good
2:59:21
news?
2:59:22
John C Dvorak: I think that should cover it for now.
2:59:25
Unknown: I'm gonna show my move by Joe
2:59:26
nice to know Imagine all the people who could do that. Oh
2:59:30
yeah, that'd be
2:59:38
Adam Curry: a good point cotton gin, whatever happened to peak
2:59:40
oil? Whatever happened to that? I don't understand. So weird
2:59:44
peak or another
2:59:44
John C Dvorak: scam? They went by the wayside. We wouldn't
2:59:48
Adam Curry: we want to let him get away with it. No way. We
2:59:51
want to thank the rest of our producers $50 and above and we
2:59:54
got some cool meetups meetup reports to play for you. So
2:59:57
stick around for John take us through the 50s of our donors.
3:00:00

John C Dvorak: it in a nasty note. Now it's not belated
3:04:17
because the day is the third isn't it? No, today is like the
3:04:19
fourth. Okay, it's a day after she sent a note in the I'm gonna
3:04:23
this is a little information for donors. She sent an express mail
3:04:29
which is a gyp which is a gyp because the regular mail does
3:04:34
just fine and it comes in at about the same time it doesn't
3:04:37
go into a special package. There were the days of air mail at the
3:04:41
Special Air Mail stamp in the 1950s and 60s is over over. All
3:04:46
the stuff goes in the same package. It just gets tracked
3:04:48
better. So she got it got track to Wednesday when I pick up the
3:04:52
mail I pick up the mail on Wednesdays and Saturdays. And
3:04:56
the mail came in according to her on the timestamp it came
3:04:59
into my postal Office at 930. They've already stuffed the mail
3:05:03
in the morning into the boxes. And so anything comes in during
3:05:07
the day just goes put aside gets put into next day didn't come
3:05:10
until Thursday. So don't go through the extra expensive
3:05:15
express mail unless there's a you know, you got gold coins or
3:05:18
something and even then I wouldn't do it. No. regular mail
3:05:23
works fine. Yeah,
3:05:25
Adam Curry: it's just it didn't come in on time. And that was
3:05:28
yeah, she got
3:05:28
John C Dvorak: a little bent out of shape. But then again, she
3:05:30
got calm down when I told the government lied about survival.
3:05:34
I was like,
3:05:35

Unknown: JC That's right, everybody just at times. No,
3:19:31
Adam Curry: it's never me. It's always JCD that's right
3:19:34
everybody. Time for the tip. Tip of the day, John, what kind of
3:19:37
tip Do you Is it another lube?
3:19:40
John C Dvorak: Everybody Oh more lubes for a while. I will This
3:19:44
is something some one of our producers sent in and she was
3:19:47
moaning about not she wanted to get off the house filled with
3:19:52
with Wi Fi and so what she's looking at home plug which is
3:19:57
the old word for the powerline network adapter and wouldn't
3:20:00
recommend these things. And I'm going to tell you a little bit
3:20:03
about
3:20:03
Adam Curry: and tell everyone what it is because she didn't
3:20:05
understand exactly what it was how our line
3:20:07
John C Dvorak: network adapter, this is using your power lines
3:20:10
within the home to overlay a signal, a networking signal, a
3:20:17
Ethernet signal on top of when you can like if I plugged in the
3:20:21
the source up in my office, I can go pick up the power line, I
3:20:26
put plug in another adapter down in a power line somewhere down
3:20:29
by the kitchen or the front room or whatever. And it will send
3:20:32
the signal across very easy to to install, they use the Find Me
3:20:37
button, you know little button you push and you push the button
3:20:39
on one, you push the button on the other and they both the link
3:20:42
up. And you can have multiple networks by the way in the same
3:20:45
house from different sources. So you can have like two or three
3:20:47
different networks on top of each other. And so what you want
3:20:51
to look for on the day. So that's the basics of powerline
3:20:56
network adapting, and it will reduce the amount of RF in the
3:21:01
house if you unless you get a Wi Fi extender version of these
3:21:05
things. So this is going to be a little lecture on the technology
3:21:09
of namely the nomenclature. You want to look if you're looking
3:21:14
to buy these things you want to look for a V 1000 Or a v 2000.
3:21:18
That's the speed as a gig as a gigabit connection. Never as
3:21:22
wrote true gigabit but doesn't fall off like Wi Fi Wi Fi is no
3:21:25
good because it Triple G is a gigabit Avi 1000 is one gigabit
3:21:32
av 2000s. The newest technology is two gigabits and they're all
3:21:36
backward compatible to av 200. The original is av 200 than
3:21:41
506 100 than 1012 102,000. And they all inner work they work
3:21:46
fine together, which is great. Two brands that I like are
3:21:50
tender, and TP Link. And those are the two of the most popular,
3:21:57
they're dirt cheap, they're like 3040 bucks for one of the
3:22:01
connections, you plug in a regular Ethernet cable into the
3:22:05
hole in the bottom. And it plugged the Ethernet cable into
3:22:08
whatever you're hooking it up to TV sets are perfect for this by
3:22:12
the way smart TVs that you want to get a good connection without
3:22:15
using Wi Fi. You use one of these powerline network adapters
3:22:20
now, no, here's the things you need to know if you want to
3:22:25
reduce your Wi Fi don't get a version that says Wi Fi
3:22:30
extension. Those versions of the same same exact product, but it
3:22:37
has a Wi Fi at the end one of the two things you don't want
3:22:40
that no? Well you do if you want Wi Fi. Oh, okay. But so you have
3:22:46
you have a Wi Fi and one of the the and you so you plug it into
3:22:52
your router at the base station and then it goes to the to the
3:22:56
plug that goes into the wall someplace in the house and it
3:22:58
could have a Wi Fi on it. Now there are some and I would look
3:23:03
for these I liked the idea of the Wi Fi extender. If it has an
3:23:07
off switch, a little switch on the bond that turns off the Wi
3:23:11
Fi. So for example, I have this hook to like the dining room I
3:23:18
will once these things are established by the way we want
3:23:20
you to push the two buttons, you can unplug them and then plug
3:23:23
them in a time you want this to connect up. So I'll take one of
3:23:26
these things, which is just sitting around and I'll plug it
3:23:28
into the dining room it's already ready it's already been
3:23:31
connected previously and then flip on the Wi Fi so if people
3:23:35
in the dining room want to get their phone to talk to Wi Fi or
3:23:39
guard their laptop or whatever they get an excellent connection
3:23:42
this connection will be twice to four times the speed of Wi Fi
3:23:47
which degree people don't realize this Yeah, you get a
3:23:50
gigabit Wi Fi it by the time it gets to wherever it's going it's
3:23:54
slow down to 1/4 the speed just kidding Oh fourth, no or less.
3:24:01
And by the way can't deliver over distance can
3:24:04
Adam Curry: I add a tip to the to your tip can I put my tip
3:24:07
against your tip
3:24:10
John C Dvorak: you did sounds doesn't sound
3:24:11
Adam Curry: right I'm sorry. You What is not recommended is using
3:24:16
an extension cord with your wire line that does not work very
3:24:21
well if at all I've noticed no
3:24:23
John C Dvorak: you had to put it right into the wall
3:24:26
Adam Curry: structions you got I'm just telling everybody don't
3:24:29
think that you can use an extension so
3:24:33
John C Dvorak: I would recommend using these a they're faster.
3:24:37
They work fine. Your Adam's a ham was constantly signaling out
3:24:42
there do original versions of these things that some of the
3:24:44
earlier ones interfered with ham transmissions. There were worse
3:24:49
than that. candlish Yes, they became scandalous and out of
3:24:53
vogue. A lot of them if you turn on a blender for example. It'll
3:24:56
interrupt the signal because the blenders variable Is
3:25:00
Adam Curry: the pioneering days of wireline this. Most of these,
3:25:03
John C Dvorak: these problems have been resolved. This is a
3:25:06
terrific, understated technology up to two gigabits I mean, it's
3:25:12
pretty amazing. You only need I think 2425 gig or megabits per
3:25:17
second to get a 4k TV so you can use this as a great technology
3:25:24
works
3:25:24
Adam Curry: terrific because it's good, good tip.
3:25:28
John C Dvorak: Long the longest Tip of the day you'll ever hear
3:25:30
I
3:25:31
Adam Curry: do have a bonus public service announcement from
3:25:33
void zero. Regarding the troll room. He says we enabled the
3:25:37
nickname registration requirement in the chat in 2016,
3:25:40
after a severe attack from spam bots made it necessary. But he
3:25:44
says it's not a big deal. The email addresses only used for a
3:25:47
verification code. And for when someone forgets their password,
3:25:50
we don't use the email address for anything else. I that's
3:25:54
mark, don't even share the email addresses with anyone so not
3:25:57
even John and Adam can access those. So we can't add you to
3:26:01
the mailing list. That's a bummer. So there you go. We
3:26:05
docked we tips. That's your tip of the day.

3:29:25
Donald Trump's car. That's the setup and then about this
3:29:28
