John C Dvorak: UK's got all
these issues. It's got issues.
Adam Curry: I've heard there's
issues. Adam curry, John C
Dvorak, Thursday, August, 22
2024 this is your award winning
giver. Nation media as
fascination. Episode 1688,
Unknown: this is no agenda.
Adam Curry: Four more years of
bus and broadcasting live from
the heart of the Texas hill
country here in FEMA Region,
number six in the morning,
everybody. I'm Adam curry,
John C Dvorak: and from Northern
Silicon Valley, where we're all
saying save the brown bear. I'm
John C Dvorak
Unknown: Buzzkill. In the
morning,
Adam Curry: we're not saying
save the brown bear.
John C Dvorak: Brown Bear is an
endangered species, and the bear
we normally think of as bears
around here, or black bears, is
a different bear. I
Adam Curry: did not and I'm so
happy to know this. Does he poop
in the woods, though, is the big
question.
John C Dvorak: They all poop in
the woods.
Adam Curry: I know you're a
little irked. Yeah, we've been
working on our exit strategy for
about 16 years and eight months.
The curry Dvorak microphone
company is supposed to be the
exit strategy. And you brought
out a dog. Man, before the
before the show what that was a
dog.
John C Dvorak: Hello. What are
you gonna do?
Adam Curry: Well, can I, can I
lift your spirits?
Unknown: You have something
funny, uplifting.
Adam Curry: I am using the curry
one beta, and I love it. Are
John C Dvorak: you talking about
that? That dynamic? Yes, sounds
exactly the same. It's,
Adam Curry: it's, it has a it
sounds exactly the same. Has a
little bit more, I mean, I
haven't put on the scope yet,
but has a little bit more punch
to it, just a tiny bit.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, you say
that. I it's, to me, it sounded
well, you're listening through
and I'm not using headphones,
I'm using speakers. So, yeah,
yeah, to me, I, if you hadn't
told me that, I wouldn't have
thought exactly, and
Adam Curry: I wasn't going to
tell you, and but you were so
bummed out about that. That
absolute dog you brought,
John C Dvorak: isn't that a nice
little mic though, that when you
got there,
Unknown: oh, no, this. Did
John C Dvorak: you unscrew the
top of it? No, no, this. Oh, you
have to take it. You have to
feel that the machining, the
quality, the machining. When you
unscrew the top, it's just like,
wow, this is pretty.
Adam Curry: I saw the pictures
of an unscrewed but forget it. I
mean, what I love about it? It's
a front spitter, so I'm spitting
down the tube. It's tiny,
favorite compared to the EV 320
because this one, I'm comparing
it to the EV 320 it is
beautiful. I have to size, yeah?
Ah, no, it's a third of the
size.
John C Dvorak: It's, yeah, maybe
320s oversized.
Adam Curry: Well, because that's
meant for kick drums. It was
never meant for podcasting.
Anyway, anyway, there you go.
That should make you happy, but
we're just a
John C Dvorak: step in the right
direction.
Adam Curry: What more do we
need? We're done. Slap a logo on
it. We're good to go. I'm happy
this is
John C Dvorak: I still gotta
find the valve.
Adam Curry: Okay, everybody four
more years. Yeah, exactly,
exactly. Well, we both watched
the DNG Democrat national gas
lighting. Oh, my Lord. I see you
have a number of clips, and I
can probably add to what you
are. These
John C Dvorak: are all short
clips too. I should mention,
because it's like, by the way,
did you see John Legend trying
to cover the
Adam Curry: Oh man. So it was
legend. It was Sheila E and her
which apparently no one at CNN
has ever heard of her. Covering.
Let's go crazy by Prince.
John C Dvorak: And you realize
that John, legend has no range
in his voice. And you and you
also realize that Prince was
really good because this, he
just botched this thing.
Adam Curry: I like her, though
she was, she's pretty good.
John C Dvorak: She got to she
the was guitar player, the
drummer, guitar. Sheila
Adam Curry: E is the drummer,
percussionist, drummer. Yeah,
well,
John C Dvorak: her was, she did
end the guitar solo and a
tribute to Kamala Harris on her
back with her legs.
Adam Curry: Man, oh, man,
John C Dvorak: but tell me I'm
wrong.
Unknown: No.
Adam Curry: So all right, since
you brought that up, I'll just
say being a very close watch,
and I watched all of night one,
almost got in marital trouble
for it. Then, oh, went
John C Dvorak: on forever.
Adam Curry: Tina's like, I'm
going to bed. This is no good.
I'm sorry she went I'm going to
bed, honey. Night Two, I kind of
skipped most of it, though. I.
Had the yahoo, yahoo, the
YouTube TV in one ear while we
were watching something else.
Oh,
John C Dvorak: you're double
dueling, double double dipping,
double
Adam Curry: double dueling. I
John C Dvorak: like that. Double
dueling, double dueling shows
you get one against the other.
Was, I can't do that.
Adam Curry: We've been watching
Veep, so I was double dueling
watching Veep while watching
this was odd, because it's so
close in synchronicity with
season five. So, of course, but
really the first night I'm
waiting for Joe to come out.
John C Dvorak: Wait a long time.
I
Adam Curry: did wait a long
time, and I was waiting to see
if it was long daddy, long legs.
And here are my observations.
First of all, they did not show
him walking on the stage or on
the stage until the very end,
but from the waist up, when he
went to go hug his daughter,
they went to the only time they
went to this top shot of the
stage. Never went to it the
whole evening. And and then as
I'm watching him, I'm telling
you, this was not Joe Biden, and
you can see it in his eyes. His
eyes were open. That not the
squinty type eyes that he
normally has. And this was the
actor who plays Joe Biden. I
know I'm sounding crazy, but I
have more to this. Who just did
his all of the old I mean, I'm
surprised he didn't do hairy
legs. He just did all the old
material,
John C Dvorak: because that's a
def. It was a RE. It was
everything you've ever heard him
say. Now, first of all, before
you continue, I will say I did
see him walk on stage. I don't
know what camera shots what you
were watching.
Adam Curry: I was watching the
CBS online live feed. So maybe
it was different. Maybe I
John C Dvorak: think I saw I had
different feed. I saw him
walking on stage, and I saw him
hugging it without the Top Shot.
So I saw him,
Adam Curry: and did you think
that he looked normal height?
John C Dvorak: I didn't see him
as the tall one it I was
watching, I also clipped to the
Benny show, who was doing a
voice. It was something we've
always promised to do. We never
do where they just kibitz while
the guy's doing his speech. Oh,
that's fun. Yeah, that's and
they said that they he believed
it was Biden number four.
Adam Curry: Well, let me, let me
add to this. So then at the end,
the whole family comes out, and
I saw Jill reaching up much
higher, much higher to hug him.
So that was my clue. And his
grandson with the long hair, who
I didn't know it was his
grandson. I thought it was his
granddaughter. They were like, I
go, go, go, stand with grandpa.
And the kids like, Who's that?
And so this is going to sound
very weird, but knowing this
technology has been perfected
since family member of my,
members of mine, have told me
about it, dating back to 1967
John C Dvorak: I think this this
Yes, and just to add to that,
they exploited this idea in the
in the TV series, mission,
impossible, yep, and they showed
it then and and according to the
disguise expert at CIA, woman
who came out and started giving
lectures at TED talks, she said
it was available then, and it's
been so perfected that it's
ridiculous. And
Adam Curry: you can even look
online and you'll see people
with a $300 mask. They just put
no it's just a random person,
but it looks so good. I am
convinced number one that, and
this is gonna sound so crazy,
but I does you sound nuts? I
sound nuts. This was not Joe
Biden. This was the guy who does
the voice very well. Just it was
his swan song, really. It was
him saying goodbye. Oh, this is
my, my last performance,
everybody and get to get a
bonus. Subsequently, Nancy,
jacked up Joe, by the way, well,
yeah, but it wasn't the jacked
up Joe the way we've seen the
other job. Thank
John C Dvorak: you. I believe, I
think it's the same jacked up
Joe that gave the State of the
Union. And it may be the same,
okay, possibly so
Adam Curry: mask. Look at the
ears that it's connected to the
skull.
John C Dvorak: The weird thing
about the ears is his right ear
was longer than his left ear.
Did you notice this? Yes,
Adam Curry: I did, and I paid
very close attention this. But
I'm going to tell you something
else now, Nancy Pelosi, Hillary
Clinton, Bill Clinton, possibly
Barack Obama. It's them wearing
masks. I'm telling you. There is
no way that Hillary Clinton
looks like that on television
anymore. Bill Clinton said, This
is not plastic surgery. I know
my way around Botox and plastic
surgery. No, I think that this
is, this is the new
Adrenochrome. It's like, oh,
we're gonna go out all right.
Everybody put it on. I mean, it
was, there's no way they can.
You can't even do that with
many. Makeup, no way. Nancy
Pelosi, she is a 90 you cannot
look like that. And her eyes
were so deep in her skull, it
was like they were at the back
of her head.
John C Dvorak: She was old,
thick mask. Ah, so,
Adam Curry: so I'm just saying
that there's barely move her
mouth. There's something really
awful,
John C Dvorak: something where
she gave a speech chewing or
cud,
Adam Curry: there was some
rubber from the mask in her
mouth. The only one not wearing
a mask was Michelle Obama. That
was Michelle like, and it was
just, there is no way. And it's
irksome to me because, remember,
people didn't even know they
changed out Aunt Viv on, was
that on Fresh Prince. I mean
people, they've changed out
people in TV series, and no one
notices. It happens all the
time. And when you see these
videos of someone putting on one
of these masks, you're like,
right away, your whole brain
goes, Wow, this is a person I
cannot see. It's a mask. I think
that's what we're doing now. And
by the way, I want in, I want to
look that good when I do my
meetups. Fantastic. So with that
out of the way, we can go on to
the gaslighting. Because if they
weren't marrying wearing masks
of rubber, then they were
definitely wearing masks that
obfuscate their lies in
wickedness. What a bunch of
horrible, horrible people with
nothing other to say than Trump
sucks. Project 2025 and go, go
black woman, it's like, whoa.
Oh, my God. So
John C Dvorak: the project 2025
is such a red herring
Unknown: with the big
John C Dvorak: book, with the
big, giant book. Who Whose idea
was this, the Heritage
Foundation. This was a setup.
Adam Curry: Well again, the
whole, probably the whole beauty
of it is the only people who
have read it includes me. And as
I said, you could have done
these 900 pages in 30 pages, but
they ran it through chat GPT,
and it came out to this big,
flowery, well, that language,
but it's what, you know, it's
like, oh, it's Handmaid's Tale.
No, no, it's not. It's and then,
you know, did you see the woman
who came on? I forget who she
was, the she brought out the
book the first time, the first
night, and she she had this
weird tic where her tongue kept
slithering out of her mind.
John C Dvorak: I did not see
that. Oh, man,
Adam Curry: and she's a lizard.
Well, no, it's, remember, this
is, this is the, the old FBI
slash, CIA interrogation,
observation, when someone says
something they and then their
tongue comes out. That means,
Bs, I'm lying and but she had it
was like a tick with her. Who
was that woman? And you can see
it online. You'll see the videos
everywhere. And all sudden, it's
like her tongue camera almost
touched her chin, and she would
do it in between. Lies about
this project, 2025 but the
dramatization of this big book,
which these people have not
read, the only one who did kind
of a good take on it was Keenan
Thompson from SNL, because,
because he brought in, he had a
good a good bit, I have 30
seconds of it. You
Unknown: ever seen a document
that could kill a small animal
and democracy at the same time.
Now
Adam Curry: he's holding the
book. I mean, they were passing
it off from speaker to speaker.
Unknown: Here it is. You know,
when you download an app and
there are hundreds of pages
there that you don't read, it's
just the terms and conditions,
and you just click, agree,
right? Well, these are the terms
and conditions of a second Trump
presidency. You vote for him.
You vote for all of this. Let's
take a look.
Adam Curry: He throws it down to
my it's like it's the most it's
the weirdest, performative
gaslighting I've seen in my
podcasting career. It was just,
I mean, wow. And of course,
these people on the floor, I
mean, they're all, they're all
meant to cheer, that's what you
do. I mean, it's, it's
apartheid. It's like a meetup.
Everyone's all jitty about it,
but man, it's like, seriously,
you haven't read it. Keenan.
It's just, it's, it's very
innocuous at best. Oh, they want
a downsize government, okay. Oh,
gee, that's been a thing. The
Democrats, I think, used to say
that at one point,
John C Dvorak: I'm, I'm without
words.
Adam Curry: Well, I like the
EULA bit that would that that
was, that was not bad. Actually.
I have a How about this. I have
a little wrap up from No How
about this. Why don't I play a
supercut? Because the whole
this, whole evening, last night,
was. Completely centered around
the Obamas. I used to they
brought out Hillary. Bill
Hillary, by the way, did you did
you hear Bill mispronounce
Kamala?
John C Dvorak: Yes, yes, I did.
But did you hear but what was
funny to me was that Puerto
Rican convention, when they were
doing the voting, no, I didn't
hear that the guy from Puerto ri
from Puerto Rico, we vote all
our votes to Kamala. So here's
they said, Kamala, which is
supposed to be racist.
Adam Curry: Well, here is the
racist Bill Clinton. Ask
Unknown: for their help and then
follow our leader camel and
asked them, How can I help you?
Camelah? No,
John C Dvorak: that's like
Pamela and a Camela. Like Pamela
is not necessarily racist, like
Kamala. Oh, you. Which is you?
Adam Curry: Oh, I'm sorry you
have not been watching the news
channels. If you say Camella
instead of Kamala, then you are
a racist. It's the new N word,
oh yeah. And then so I went back
into the archive from we had a C
span clip when she went to
Cleveland, Ohio in 2020 and with
John C Dvorak: this one where
she says how to pronounce her
name, yes.
Adam Curry: Here it is, of
course, I pulled that one. Here
it is,
Unknown: hello, Cleveland,
Cleveland.
Adam Curry: I You talk right
over it. Don't do that. Don't do
that. Cuts off. It's Camela. She
says, camel.
John C Dvorak: Well, what?
There's still a clip out there.
We had it where she says,
somebody asked her, How do you
pronounce her name? Is it camel
or Kamala? Yeah, I can't,
doesn't matter. You can
pronounce it anywhere you want,
yeah,
Adam Curry: but this is now,
this is 2024, now it's racist,
like so many things. So it was
built around Bill and Hillary
and then subsequently Barack
Obama, I'm telling you, mask,
and then Michelle Obama. And you
know, it was built around her
because of the supercut of the
media in lockstep
Unknown: Michelle Obama. I
think Michelle Obama's speech
was probably the most effective,
Adam Curry: powerful political
speech
Unknown: I've ever heard, best
convention speeches I've ever
seen by anybody, in any
circumstance. She's probably the
best non political speaker in
the country, probably the best
detail I've ever seen. There is
no one who has the speech
delivery like Michelle. No one
on the political you know, in
the political Pantheon, boy, did
Michelle bring it?
She did it with her arms out
that sleeveless outfit.
She's mad. Masterful, you know,
not only her words, but in her
expressions.
This was a masterful act of
leadership. It was a sacred
task. It was like an oasis. I
didn't realize I had been in a
spiritual desert as
a white man that was
just so powerful man.
She has got some skills. I'm
surprised we still have a roof
over our head. She blew the roof
off of this arena last night
that in that moment when you
left your body as a piece of
political communication, I'm not
sure. I can't think that I've
seen anyone do it better than I
saw her do it last night. She is
beyond politics. He
always seems to transcend
politics. She's not a child.
She transcends politics. This
was a cultural moment, subtle,
deep, thought
provoking, surprising, unusual,
perfectly deliberate, stunning
speech. Michelle Lavon
Robinson Obama from the south
side of Chicago, honey, was on
that stage tonight. Yes, she
preached. Michelle Obama
preached tonight. She gave a
sermon to this country. She gave
instructions and things that
needed to be done. Vulnerability
in
a way that makes you see one
another as human beings. Put
it up there with Barack Obama's
2004 speech, or Reagan's 1980
speech, Ted Kennedy's speech,
John C Dvorak: by the way, you
know, you keep kind of
indicating that this was done
yesterday. Joe Obama spoke on
Tuesday.
Adam Curry: No, I'm sorry. I
didn't mean to indicate that.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, yesterday
was Clinton and walls,
Adam Curry: right? I'm sorry,
but I went to Austin to have my
hair done, and I still go
important,
John C Dvorak: yes, one more
thing, which is they it was
notable that when the Obama
bomber spoke, Harris was not in
the room. Oh,
Adam Curry: no, of course not.
No, no, no, no, no, no, because
there's mad. They're mad.
They're mad. They're feuding. By
the way, kudos to Matt Walsh.
Oh, so he had posters all over
Chicago. Says, Find all about,
found find out about Project
2025 project 2020 five.com and
it goes, it's, it's a spoof. It
goes to his website with his. A,
you know, am I racist where he
goes undercover as a soy soy?
Boy, yes. So, so how he got
project 2020, five.com is very
that's a good hack. I like that
a lot,
John C Dvorak: yeah. So say he's
taking a hit from the no agenda
show. We used to do that all the
time.
Adam Curry: So I went to have my
hair done yesterday. Still go to
the same hairdresser in Austin,
because she's a liberal, but
she's from El Paso, so in her
dad's like a, you know, Fox News
watcher. And we always can talk
very freely. And there's no, you
know, we don't get mad. We just
talk about stuff and but I go
there for the hair and hooker
report, you know. And she's, by
the way, we're on track. She
says, oh yeah. She says,
everyone in the hair industry is
talking about the clients not
coming back, people not doing
the same extensive procedures,
you know, less color, cheaper
color, so we're on track with
the economic indicators. And she
also said it is unbelievable.
She had dinner with a friend of
hers, who she's known for since
her college days. And, you know,
and my, my person, said
something to the effect of,
well, you know, it's like
everyone, you know, it's just
everybody kind of wants the same
thing. And her friend jumped
down her throat. You need to
educate yourself. Do you even
know what project 2025, is about
handmaid's sail. So the
programming is strong on this Oh
yeah,
John C Dvorak: it's strong.
That's the idea. It's very good
work. And
Adam Curry: what I saw
throughout this convention,
including the signage, is
reframing the term freedom. Did
you notice that at all? Well,
John C Dvorak: I did notice the
analysis of the use of freedom,
because yesterday, which was the
walls night, it was about
freedom, but mostly freedom to
get an abortion.
Adam Curry: Well, yeah, so it's,
it is a re all. I have two clips
that'll kind of prove it. I'm
sorry, here's Tim waltz. And
Republicans
Unknown: use the word freedom.
They mean that the government
should be free to invade your
doctor's office.
Adam Curry: Really Is that what
the Republicans mean with
freedom? Excellent Tim
Unknown: corporations free to
pollute your air and water, and
banks free to take advantage of
customers, but when we Democrats
talk about freedom, we mean the
freedom to make a better life
for yourself and the people that
you love.
Adam Curry: So that was a slight
reframing, but Hillary Clinton
brought it home. What do
Unknown: I see? I see freedom. I
see the freedom to make our own
decisions about our health, our
lives, our loves, our families,
the freedom to work with dignity
and prosper, to worship as we
choose or not, to speak our
minds freely and honestly. I see
freedom from fear and
intimidation, from violence and
injustice, from chaos and
corruption. I see the freedom to
look our children in the eye and
say, in America, you can go as
far as your hard work and talent
will take you and mean it. And
you know what on the other side
of that glass ceiling is Kamala
Harris, raising her hand and
taking the oath of office as our
47th president of the United
States.
Education is liberation.
Contradiction is truth. Those
are the facts of this world, and
you will all surrender to
Adam Curry: them. May amazing,
amazing. And with the mask, it
was great. So the Republicans
should go, they should go all in
on liberty or something. They
should stay away from freedom.
Because if you really listen to
just saying freedom to do this
little thing, you can have the
freedom to do that thing, but
you're not really free, as in
free American citizens, I found
a dystopian not that I was all
jacked up about the Republican
National gaslighting, but, you
know, I was just like, come on,
you guys are liars and
everything. Everybody had
something to say about Trump.
Were they? Was the was the RNC
talking about Harris that much?
No, I don't think so
John C Dvorak: either. No, this
Trump thing, there's some
numbers that came out. I mean,
there's a bunch of Supercuts. I
don't have one of them. I should
have grabbed one, I guess. Were
the Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump,
Trump, they're all Trump nuts.
And it was kind of an
embarrassment talking about free
though, there. Something free
that we should at least discuss,
because I have a good clip on
it.
Adam Curry: Yeah, yeah. I know
what was free. Yeah.
John C Dvorak: It free, which,
you know, there's not enough. I
guess they determined that there
were not enough neutered
Democrat males, and so they
decided to bring a free
vasectomy truck around so people
can just go in there and get
clipped. But there was a couple
of kickers to this. Nobody
mentioned much, but it's
mentioned in this report. This
is the DNC clip, free vasectomy,
free hot dog clip. Supposedly
Unknown: they are offering free
abortions and vasectomies,
supposedly because it's a moving
vehicle, it's mobile, and you'd
have to go inside. But they say
that they have a long list of
people, and right now they're
all scheduled up in offering
free abortions and vasectomies.
Wow. Planned Parenthood has been
bragging about their mobile
health clinic on social media,
writing, here we come Chicago.
Rich Edson is in Chicago. Hey,
Harris, well, there's
more than that. You know, Frida
is here. She is a 20 foot tall
inflatable IUD. That's courtesy
of the Americans for
contraception group. They're
displaying that near the United
Center where the convention is.
Meanwhile, the Weiner's circle
restaurant is working with
Planned Parenthood and the
Chicago abortion fund to offer
free hot dog coupons to anyone
who did actually receive an
abortion or vasectomy from the
Planned Parenthood Great Rivers
mobile clinic today and
tomorrow.
Ghoulish, ghoulish.
John C Dvorak: Well, I like the
hot dog aspect to it.
Adam Curry: To your point,
here's Dana Bash from CNN
explaining what men the DNC
really wants to reach and the
Democrat party,
Unknown: but they are doing so
in trying to put forward male
figures. Tim Walz being one of
them, Doug emhoff Last night,
who can speak to men out there
who might not be the sort of
testosterone laden, you know,
gun toting, kind of guy who
wants to listen to Hulk Hogan
and the kind of players that
came out at the RNC, or might
want to listen to that. But
also, in addition, understand
that it's okay in 2024 to be a
man comfortable in his own skin,
who supports a woman. And that's
something that they really are
trying to work on with male
voters beyond the base. I
Adam Curry: don't I mean, how
many are there of these male
voters? These soy soy men,
John C Dvorak: soy boys, soy
Adam Curry: boys. Yeah, that's,
John C Dvorak: I think there's
more than you think.
Adam Curry: I think you may be
correct, sir, you know, I can't
figure out the Cuomo kid, you
know, he was there,
John C Dvorak: Chris, yes, I
Adam Curry: can't figure I you
know, sometimes like, yeah, go
and then like, what are you
doing? And any he actually had a
pretty good piece he did from
the floor, which was accurate. A
Unknown: big theme here at the
DNC is that they're going to go
after corporate gouging, and
they're going to go after
corporations, whether it's in
taxes, largess, loopholes. Let
me reveal a reality to you that
has to be spoken to here. Okay?
These are the soldiers. These
are the men and the women that
go back to their constituencies
and their communities and they
fight. They take time from their
jobs. They take time from their
families. They need to charge
these people up. They need to be
able to get them on board. But
there is another reality that is
literally looking down on them.
Greg, look at the ring of
sweets. Okay. This is not unique
to Democrats. There is a game of
money. When people talk about
uni party, we are strangled by
the money. Reality in our
politics, those sweets start at
500 grand. You think there's
like a teacher group up in
there. You think it's like the
Cub Scouts of Columbia County,
South Carolina. That's up in
those boxes, the media boxes.
You think they're free. Why do
you think I'm on the floor news
nation is not a broke company.
Next star is a massive
organization. We are corporate
media. We don't have one of
those boxes because that's the
game you pay to play. Those
boxes are filled with the same
people that they say they're
going to regulate. They are
literally looking down on the
faithful and being told, yeah,
yeah, we're going to break down
on them. We're going to make
them pay their share. They paid
500 700 a million, a million and
a half to have those seats. They
get hotel suites that are
probably gifted to the party,
and they're going to take them
down. They're going to change
how it is they are looking down
from on high at the people who
make the difference in their
communities, and that is the
reality of politics. Well,
Adam Curry: news nation isn't
broke yet, but,
John C Dvorak: yeah, I agree it
is. It's weird. He's something
schizo.
Unknown: You said weird. Thank
you. You're welcome. So
John C Dvorak: there's what he.
In so far as what he said, The
One of the ironies of the show
was listening to Bernie Sanders
go on and on and on and on about
how terrible billionaires are
and they should all die. And
then he introduces Pritzker, a
billionaire, a
Adam Curry: billion, or Michelle
Obama, saying, by
John C Dvorak: the way, Pritzker
comes out and brags about being
a billionaire, or
Adam Curry: Michelle Obama
saying, you know, my mom was
suspicious of rich people. She
worked at the same bank Tina
worked at in the like, what, I
forget what division it was,
but, you know, she, she
literally worked side by side
with rich people. Where's this,
this disdain and this distrust?
She worked in the trust
department. That's it. She
worked in the trust department
of the bank where my wife worked
in Chicago. This lying is just
lies. And I'm just so sad that
all these people like NPCs, this
good show, great show. John
Legend. He's the best, and poor
James Taylor didn't even get to
play. I was waiting for that.
I'm like, Oh, watch James
Taylor. You know, you got a
friend. I always liked me some
James Taylor, they booted him,
because after after Joe,
everyone got
John C Dvorak: a friend. It
would be a perfect song,
especially compared to, let's go
crazy. Yeah, well, that was the
first crazy thing. There's a, I
have a clip, DNC clip. This is
the black car. Is a very short
clip. This only one that's been
floating around. This is the
Black Caucus discussing how, how
they're going to act during the
next 7080, days during the
election. We
Unknown: got 70 days to act
right? Y'all, that's right. Have
seven days we can go back then
Crazy, right?
John C Dvorak: So we've got 70
days to act normal, and then we
can go back to our to being
crazy. And so then you had John
Legend singing the song, let's
go crazy. It's just like the
whole is so much hypocrisy.
Also, they brought watch this.
It makes you sick. They brought
out
Adam Curry: an orthodox priest
and some pastor at the end of
the night for the consecration.
I missed that. Well, yeah,
everyone did. They didn't show
it. It was at the end of the
night. Like, what is that?
That's odd. So the whole thing
was, I mean, honestly, the show
itself. I mean, I can see it
from, from what we used to call
an Obama bot perspective, I can
see people, this is what my hair
girl said, you know, they all
want to re create the feeling of
hope that they had during Obama.
And that's, that's what they're
doing with that. I mean, I think
they used hope
John C Dvorak: a lot. Well,
that's, I got a couple more,
except kind of back you up here.
Okay, these are the Van Jones
two parter. This
Adam Curry: is that van I you
know, I love that guy. He's,
John C Dvorak: I really got $100
Adam Curry: million let's
remember, he got $100 million
from Jeff Bezos for his non
profit, whatever it is. So he's,
he can just show up and he can
do whatever he wants. He's got,
well, still,
John C Dvorak: Van Jones. Van
Jones on Obama. CNN,
Unknown: I mean, it's I
remember, 20 years ago, I was
living in Oakland in a little
condo. I had a little baby and a
cat, and I didn't have a TV. I
listened on the radio, and this
voice that sounded completely
different than anything we'd
ever heard before. Barack Obama
talked recasting his own story
as an American story.
John C Dvorak: Wait, what?
Unknown: What American story?
John C Dvorak: Recasting his
story as an American? What his
Kenya story, his upbringing in
Africa, or whatever that he was
in Indonesia and he was a
Muslim. I mean, whatever or
whatever, he's recasting his
story as an American. So, okay,
great, we'll listen to that. And
then he goes on with part two
here, and with, with the most
outrageous thing I've ever
heard, recasting
Unknown: his own story as an
American story. And it just
opened up a sense for me,
personally, that I had a place
in the country, that I could be
something, and everybody that
day felt the same way. And
Kamala Harris can do that times
100 because she is because of
what it means for a woman to do
this. And I think it's going to
be exciting. Tonight.
Adam Curry: They are doing a
very good job with with editing
videos, with sound and sound
bites, of putting Kamala, Harri,
Kamala, Kamala, Kamala, in that
in that same vibe, they're doing
a very good job. She can't do it
the way Barack Obama does it.
She
John C Dvorak: can't do anything
as let alone. 100x
Adam Curry: Obama, he's
masterful at it. And, you know,
she does not have it, but they
they want that. And you know
when, when you want something
that bad? And I really
understand why people want that.
They want to a mommy or a daddy
who's going to fix it for him.
And the same with Republicans.
Oh, if only Trump wins, then
we're safe. No, no, no, daddy or
mommy in the White House is
gonna it'll make you feel
better. Then I gotta fix
everything. You gotta do that in
your own community. I won't even
go down that road. And and so,
speaking of such, this was the
weirdest thing. Oh, I did it.
You got to call me out.
Unknown: I missed it. No,
Adam Curry: listen to what Trump
said being interviewed by CNN
about Michelle and Barack. We're
also
Unknown: keeping an eye on new
comments from Donald Trump, who
is out on the campaign trail
today. That is where we find
students. Kristen Holmes, at
this hour. Kristen, you spoke to
Donald Trump directly earlier.
What did he tell you?
Well, Kelly asked him about the
DNC and particularly former
President Barack Obama's speech
tonight. I cited the fact that
in 2020 Obama said that Trump
never grew into the role as
president. And then I asked him
for essentially a prebuttal of
the speech, what he said almost
a complete turnaround of what we
have heard him say about former
President Obama before. I like
him. I think he's a nice
gentleman, but he was very, very
weak on trade. If you take a
look at what happened to our
country, trade wise, it was a
disaster. The take a look at
Japan. Take a look at China.
Take a look at what happened
with some of these countries,
what they did, but I happen to
like him. I respect him, and I
respect his wife, Caitlin. I
respect him, and I respect him.
I expect to respect his wife.
Obviously very different from
what we've heard from Donald
Trump, particularly during his
tenure in office, when he
repeatedly blamed Obama for a
lot of shortcomings in his own
office, tried to undermine his
legacy, and before that was the
biggest promoter of birtherism,
essentially saying that Obama
wasn't eligible to be, you know,
Adam Curry: and I hear that
clip, and I'm a little
suspicious that he might have
been talking about someone else
and someone else's wife. I
cannot believe that he said
that.
John C Dvorak: That's a good
point.
Adam Curry: I mean, I
John C Dvorak: it's a little bit
off brand, a little, and I'm
noticing that a couple of
things. One is the Republicans,
in particular, the Republicans
have gone off the deep end, off
the rails about Trump and how
he's, you know, should be, he
should be softer, and he's
better when he's just not being
so mean. He's all mean, mean
tweets. It goes back to that.
And then now that they and he
does that. He does say some,
some kind of does. He does some
things that are just mild. He's
the Donald. He's doing podcasts,
everything he can do and and as
he does more and more of this
being normalized, they bitch
about it. I was watching, God,
oh, he's not as funny as he used
to be. I don't understand why
he's so much, you know. He's
could give it to him, you know,
and he won't. And so it's that
they want it one way, and then
they when he gives it to him
that way, then they bitch. I
mean, the Republicans are
screwed up.
Adam Curry: I watched, so I
listened. I should say on my
ride into Austin, him on Theo
Vaughn show, I like Theo Vaughn.
I like his style. I like how
he's just the kind of redneck
ish, like Donald good show,
Donald, let me ask you this, and
I thought it was very good. He
was Trump. He Trump was
interested, engaging. He, he, he
didn't. I mean, it was, it was a
different type of interview. It
was conversational. It was
conversational, yeah, and I that
was an interesting side to see.
I still want to hear him say
that Kamala lasts like a crazy
woman. Yes, we played the clip
on the last show. Of course, he
has said that. But, yeah, you're
right. It's, it's but that. But
that's because it's the same
thing on the Republican side.
You know, you cannot say enough,
oh, she's a communist,
socialist, just going nuts.
She's a nothing, she's a she's
like a pimple, she's no good.
Every everybody knows that she
was the worst four months, four
weeks ago. Everyone knows it.
You know, that's let me just let
me say this, the gas lighting is
also working on people who
support Trump. They are going
insane about I mean, to me, this
whole thing was kind of boring.
You know, these these
conventions are boring. But you
know, when you see a whole bunch
of people like yelling and
they're all psyched up for their
candidate, it was the same at
the RNC. It's the same thing.
But that, but so many. The
people on the right be honest,
Tina is not. Tina is not a big
Trump fan. She despises how he
communicates, and she's a
professional communicator. She's
been in communications her whole
life, but just having the DNC on
the show was in my living room.
She's like, I can't believe this
projection. I'm like, wow, it's
working. It's working. They are
psyopping both sides and both
sides. Do it. That's what you
do. It's it's well done then
Unknown: doing it. But it
John C Dvorak: fades. Let's also
it fades, of course. To back you
up a little bit, here, I want to
play two clips from AOC, your
future President, ladies and
gentlemen. Now, one of them, by
the way, is labeled SNC AOC, two
that should be DNC AOC, yeah. So
that's, that'll be the second
clip. I
Adam Curry: got you. I got you.
John C Dvorak: So the first clip
is ao, DNC AOC, now this is from
July this year, July 19, while
Biden was still president, this
is what she said on her either
Tiktok or Insta,
Unknown: if you think that there
is consensus among The people
who want Joe Biden to leave that
Kamala, that they will support
Kamala vice president, Harris,
you would be mistaken. A lot of
them are not just interested in
removing the president. They are
interested in in removing the
whole ticket,
Adam Curry: I need to remind
everybody, she auditioned for a
job in New York. They said, Hey,
you're kind of cute. Come
audition. And she was completely
constructed. She thought she was
getting an acting gig, and she
doesn't need a mask for at least
2030, years. So she's very, very
useful. So,
John C Dvorak: so the point is
there, which is what we have
discussed on this show, which is
the possibility exists that the
idea was to get rid of Biden and
Harris, which is what she said,
That's right, and the bombers
were going to control the
situation and bring in some new
people, or do a another primary,
do something. And then Biden did
the poison pill thing, and right
after he was kicked out,
realized that does his best bet
was to give it to Kamala right
away, before they could do
anything, which caused the feud
between Harris and the and the
Obamas and why she wasn't there.
The whole thing's falling apart,
because after listening to AOC
going on and on like this,
here's a snippet from her at the
convention about how great
Kamala is. In Kamala
Unknown: Harris, we have a
chance to elect a president who
is for the middle class, because
she is from the middle class.
She understands the urgency of
rent checks and groceries and
prescriptions. She is as
committed to our reproductive
and civil rights as she is to
taking on corporate greed. It's
Adam Curry: the greatest show on
earth. 20 billion is what?
John C Dvorak: Oh, no, but great
show on earth.
Adam Curry: It's better than
that, stupid, where's
Unknown: the elephant? Better
than the Ringling Brothers?
Adam Curry: Oh, it is. It's the
greatest show on earth. It's $20
billion goes into the elections,
and we just, we literally
sitting there like psyop little
monkeys going it seals, and we
yell about it on Twitter. It's
crazy, because this is all going
to be forgotten in one week from
now. We won't remember this,
John C Dvorak: no, but it's fun.
While last it is, I'm
Adam Curry: gonna play the
Michelle Obama racifying stuff.
Kamala
Unknown: Harris truly
understands the unseen labor and
unwavering commitment that has
always made America great. Now,
unfortunately, we know what
comes next. We know folks are
going to do everything they can,
folks to distort her truth. My
husband and I, sadly know a
little something about this. Why
Adam Curry: wouldn't she say
Barack and I just thought that
to be odd.
Unknown: For years, Donald Trump
did everything in his power to
try to make people fear us see
his limited, narrow view of the
world made him feel threatened
by the existence of two
hardworking, highly educated,
successful people who happen to
be black.
Adam Curry: Shame on you,
Michelle Obama. I'm a shame on
you. You know it's not true.
Just that's shameful. That is
that, to me, is un American. By
just standing on stage and
calling someone a racist, that's
bull.
And shame on these NPCs. Wait,
wait,
Unknown: I
want to know. I want to know
who's going to tell him? Who's
going to tell him that the job
he's currently seeking might
just be one of those black jobs.
Adam Curry: Well written, well
done for a racist. It's not,
it's it's ridiculous.
John C Dvorak: I have the one I
have a Michelle clip, because
she they were, he was president
from 2008 to, what, 1216, 16,
and all these, all that time,
and ever since, and that now we
hear this. This is what
happened.
Adam Curry: Wait a minute, what
happened?
John C Dvorak: DNC, Michelle,
taking
Unknown: away our freedom to
control our bodies, the freedom
to become a mother through IV
and F like I did, those things
are not going to improve the
health outcomes of our wives,
mothers and daughters. I knew
Adam Curry: it was Scottie
pippens kid. I've always said
that she went through IVF. When
John C Dvorak: did this become
news, and how come the American
public just found out about it?
I
Unknown: never heard this.
John C Dvorak: I never heard it
either, and this is how many
years has she been in the public
eye, and now, all of a sudden,
she's an IVF mom,
Adam Curry: which, by the way,
was one governor in Alabama who
made some issue, who didn't even
say it was against IVF, but that
embryo should be protected. But
they've turned this all around.
This is, yeah, what? Project
2025 nonsense, stupid. It's,
please get, go get the PDF for
Project 2025 and read it every
night before you go to bed. I
guarantee you won't get past the
introduction. It's so boring.
And so in the word is innocuous,
it's nothing, but that's
John C Dvorak: what? Because no
one's gonna read it. And you can
just say a Handmaid's Tale, and
you're good to go. Yeah,
Handmaid's
Adam Curry: Tale. Handmaid's
Tale is very different.
John C Dvorak: No, no, it's the
same thing. You don't get it.
Adam Curry: What is the the the
plot of The Handmaid's Tale?
Just so we can set this project
John C Dvorak: 2025 Yeah, but
I'm asking you, what is the
truth? Comes in, Trump comes in,
and he makes every woman a
slave, and they become breeders,
and it's terrible.
Adam Curry: Let me see what the
what the book of knowledge says.
Handmaid's Tale. Let me see what
the the plot is, futuristic,
dystopian novel by Margaret
Atwood, published in 85 set in
near future New England,
patriarchal, totalian,
totalitarian, theomic state
known as the Republic of Gilead,
overthrown by the United States
government. Offered is the
central character and narrator,
one of the handmaids, women who
are forcibly assigned to produce
children for the commanders who
are the ruling class. How does
that fit with IVF and no
abortion? I mean, the whole
thing is, it's, it's crazy. Now,
there was something that
happened. I got the report this
morning. And, you know, because
we haven't really seen a lot of,
well, I have a protest clip. We
can listen to that, but we have
not seen anything near Chicago
1968
John C Dvorak: No, in fact, I
think that is because of the soy
boys. They haven't got the
enough testosterone to kick down
the damn gates.
Adam Curry: Well, let me play
that clip first, then let me
play the have one protest clip.
Here we go. This morning,
Unknown: Chicago police bracing
for another round of protests
after dozens breached the outer
perimeter of the DNC late
Monday. Right now you see
protesters having broken through
this barrier, trying to get into
the convention center. They
gathered earlier, 1000s of them,
to condemn the Biden Harris
administration's handling of the
Israel Gaza conflict, the
through line of the dozens of
protest actions planned here
this week, the March wove
through Chicago north of the
convention center, where
hundreds of officers on bikes
formed a rolling barricade
hemming them in. Then as they
filled this park, tensions
rising. Some of them have wanted
to turn right towards here, and
you may be able to see that
barricade of police that scores
a convention center, and this
appears to set off some sort of
fight that parked right up
against the DNC steel cage
perimeter. And they're a smaller
group of protesters. This is
something parts of it pouring
into the breach and taunting
police on the other side, riot
police are moving in. They're
about to push back these
protesters who. First through
this fence a few moments ago.
They've got batons right? Police
moving in from two sides,
squeezing the protesters out of
the buffer zone after an hour,
clearing the park once
they breached the fence, we knew
that that was problematic. We
had to put an end to it.
Adam Curry: So the I watched the
peaceful protests, people
marching for about an hour each
day, because there's several
live streams you can watch all
professionally printed signs.
Let me restate that. I'd say 95%
professionally printed signs,
all from the either the
Socialist Workers Party or the
Socialist Party of it's like a
splinter group of the Socialist
Workers Party. They split off, I
guess, five or 10 years ago. So
it's all socialist organized
protests. Then you have this one
guy who's like the Gaza guy, and
he talks to the press. He's
always out of breath, he's a
little overweight, and, you
know, it's just Omar is his
name, so there's really not much
there. But I thought this, this
thing that happened, was very
subversive. They're attributing
it to pro Palestine protesters,
but I thought there was an
underlying subversive message.
Unknown: According to the DNC
Joint Information Center, the
maggots were placed on the
tables with food inside of the
Fairmont Hotel around 65 this
morning, not long after the bugs
were reported, our camera
captured an FBI Evidence
Response truck along with state
and local police outside the
hotel. Investigators say
multiple female offenders are
suspected of entering the hotel
and placing unknown objects on
tables with food. Police believe
that women who have not been
caught left the area. It's
unclear if hotel staff became
aware of the insect incident
before delegates ate the food. A
professor of history at DePaul
University says the most
concerning thing to him about
the maggot incident is not the
bugs, but the security breach.
Adam Curry: So maggots, yeah,
and when I hear maggots, I hear
Maga. I think that's subversive.
John C Dvorak: Maybe I didn't
think that, but it's possible,
by
Adam Curry: the way, if you, if
you just troll around on
Twitter, and I see you a lot,
man, you're you, you're posting
a lot of trans Maoist videos.
You're really into that. If you
troll around, you'll see,
John C Dvorak: I repost very
entertaining videos people
Adam Curry: should Oh, they're
entertaining. They're
entertaining. Yes, you'll see
the Democrats. You need. They
put a a wall up around
themselves. You need an ID
Unknown: to get in
Adam Curry: there. You don't
need an ID to vote. Don't, don't
want to walk around
John C Dvorak: the country.
Heard that a million times,
Adam Curry: yes, so it's all,
it's all meant to Jack you up,
man, man, Jack
John C Dvorak: you up. I have a
couple of clips I want to play
before we get too far away. Uh,
these are shorties. I want to
this is Pelosi speech, and I
want you to tell me what work.
She was bad. She was no good.
No, she's chewing her cud. She's
eating on something, the mask.
And I think part of the mask got
into into her. I think that's
why she used the word, tell me
that's not the word she uses,
and I think it's a good show
title. She creates a new word
called imposted. But let us
Unknown: not forget who saved
democracy that day we did and we
demonstrated to America and to
the world that American
democracy prevailed. The parable
of January 6 reminds us that our
democracy is only as strong as
the courage and commitment of
those entrusted with its care
John C Dvorak: imposed it, she
said, those imposed with with
its care. Did
Adam Curry: you notice that?
Because I'm looking at crowd
response. I don't think January
6 got the type of responses they
wanted. Of course not. It's
stupid. Yeah, it's just not top
of mind. People don't really see
it as the worst moment in our
history, since Pearl Harbor or
whatever, whatever we're
supposed
John C Dvorak: to passed over
and it's not working. I mean,
Biden was also when he gave his
speech. One Biden clip, yes,
which is the one that's been
going around you for if you
haven't heard you hear it now,
of course, and this is sorry
Biden was doing quite well. Most
of the speech into phony. Biden
until this moment, until this
moment, wrote the
Unknown: following quote, women
are not without electrical,
without, not allowed, not
without electro
electoral or political power,
Adam Curry: I lower everyone
like, yeah, Joe, you did it. You
got through a sentence. Good.
Thank you, Joe. Sign the signage
coordination 10 points, 10
points for this. Oh yeah,
absolutely, 10 points, man. They
went from, uh, thank you Joe, to
we love No, we love Joe. And
then it was Thank you Joe. And
John C Dvorak: everyone turned
and then they went, kept
changing. I wish someone would
collect some of the signs. I
would love to get one of these
walls heads. Yeah, I think those
are pretty cool. I have two
more. I have one more. Well,
couple more. But
Adam Curry: by the way, by the
way, just as a parallel so
walls, kid, and I'm not sure
what's wrong with walls kid, but
you know that was wrong with
that great shot of walls. Kid,
freaking out, being all happy in
that awkward kid happy way. This
is exactly the parallel to Veep,
where Selena Myers, Tom James,
or whatever his name was, who
was her VP, also had a kid with
issues. It's insane to watch
this in in parallel to what's
happening.
John C Dvorak: I didn't know
that. Yes, let's play this DNC,
pbma clip. Will
Unknown: we be a nation defined
by chaos and extremism, or will
we choose a path of decency,
honor and continued progress?
Uh huh.
John C Dvorak: Now tell me
that's not Obama
Unknown: totally but it wasn't,
I guess.
John C Dvorak: No, that was
Shapiro. Oh, who I have said
before, and other people have
noticed this. He is the Jewish
Obama. He talks with the same
cadence. He
Unknown: sounds like Obama
indeed.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, it's just
like I just took that small
clip, and it's all it takes. I
mean, you can listen to this
whole speech and it's just
Obama, and, in fact, it's so
Obama. That is kind of annoying.
I think it's going to hurt him,
to be honest about it. Then I
have a 19 second mini super clip
about how great this convention
was. Short. Short, DNC, short,
oh,
Adam Curry: I'm sorry. Here we
go.
Unknown: The people in this room
had a great time last night,
exuberance,
Joy. I have not seen so many
Democrats laugh, smile, sing.
This
was a legitimate moment of
catharsis and love all of
it, saying we can really do
this. We're coming out of this
darkness that Donald Trump has
put us in.
Adam Curry: Neuro divergent is
the term I was looking for, for
Waltz's kid. Neuro divergent,
Unknown: that's height. That's
the politically correct way of
saying it.
John C Dvorak: I got into one
more to play. Well, I'm
Adam Curry: gonna I'm gonna play
one because Tim waltz asked me
to do this. He was very clear.
He gave me instruction, and I'm
following orders. So here,
Unknown: this is the part clip.
And save it and send it to your
undecided relatives, so they
know if your middle class
family, or a family trying to
get into the middle class.
Kamala Harris is going to cut
your taxes if you're getting
squeezed by prescription drug
prices. Kamala Harris is going
to take on big pharma if you're
hoping to buy a home, Kamala
Harris is going to help make it
more affordable. How does that
work? And no matter who you are,
Kamala Harris is going to stand
up and fight for your freedom to
live the life that you want to
lead, because that's what we
want for ourselves and it's what
we want for our neighbors.
Adam Curry: All right. All
right. I did what you told me,
Tim, very uninspiring, but I did
what you told me.
John C Dvorak: I'm gonna play a
clip. This was off the floor.
And this was row con, you know,
because the big theme here on
this convention is corporate
Adam Curry: greed. Yes, the one
sitting in the boxes up to
John C Dvorak: Yeah, the ones in
the $500,000 seats is good.
Those guys, actually, before I
go to that, I do have two clips
from uh, K part and Brooks that
took place last Friday before
the convention.
Adam Curry: The show just took a
horrible turn. Okay, I'll skip
John C Dvorak: those then, and
we'll go right there.
Adam Curry: Oh no, let's keep
them. We want to keep them. We
want to keep them. John, is it
funny? I can listen to Cape
Martin Brooks, if it's funny.
Well,
John C Dvorak: let's they're
they're always funny. Okay, K
part is pathetic, by the way,
yes, and and Brooks this play K
part, and then Brooks, and then
I'll play a real kind of because
this is all about corporate
greed, and this idea that's,
this is nonsense of the highest
order.
Unknown: She's talking about
eliminating medical debt for
millions of Americans, a cap on
prescription drug costs, a
$25,000 subsidy for first time
homebuyers. Give us some of your
top takeaways from the speech
and her policy rollout.
Well, clearly, as we know from
the polls, that the economy is
i. They're issued number one,
two or three for the American
people. So it makes sense that
she would use her first policy
speech to focus on not just
economics and just a piece of
economics, because she did say
at the top of her remarks that
there are a bunch of other
things that she's going to roll
out later, but she wanted to
focus on this very narrow issue,
which are issues that the
American people say is top of
mind for them, top of mind
now,
John C Dvorak: when I listen to
that Capehart and others, and
Kamala and Biden and the rest of
them keep talking about, this is
the greatest economy we've ever
had, number one, can I mean,
while they're talking about the
economy as those an issue, can I
play 30 against your mind
obfuscated
Adam Curry: by all of this was
the news that came out, I would
say, more hidden than
obfuscated. And
Unknown: you know, today we had
Listen, the economy had a
terrible jobs report today,
right? The downward, downward
estimate of close to a million
jobs that weren't created during
the past year in the Biden
Harris administration. Gina
Raimondo and asked about it
today. She wasn't familiar with
it. She's a Secretary of
Commerce, right? Unemployment at
4.3% the highest it's been since
2021 11% credit card defaults,
the highest it's been, and I
think since 2009 so the economy
isn't great, and people feel
that in their pocketbooks at
home, and we're going to leave
here with this great sugar high
in this hope, and then people
have to pay their their bills,
and so it's going to be tough.
Adam Curry: So the Bureau of
Labor Statistics, whose job it
is, is to report as accurately
as possible the number of jobs
created or saved? No,
John C Dvorak: just created, not
saved, revived.
Adam Curry: And they've been
revising by 50,000 100,000 for
months. Yeah, they do that, and
now 800,000
John C Dvorak: jobs is a bit
much. So they're
Adam Curry: lying. That's not,
that's not an oopsie
John C Dvorak: and and Gina
Raimondo, Diana, if
Adam Curry: you have that clip,
I don't, I didn't get it. Well,
I'll
John C Dvorak: tell you what
they did for people out there.
You just, I
Adam Curry: can literally grab
it for you if you want. Yeah,
why
John C Dvorak: don't you grab
it? Because she, she blames
Trump for lying about these
statistics when it was and then
when she's told us from the
Bureau of Labor Statistics, she
says, I don't even know who that
is. She's an idiot. And the fact
that, which is one of the
reasons I didn't get the clip,
it was so moronic that it was
like, I can't take
Adam Curry: it. I have the same
you know what's Gina? Is her
name Gina Raimondo.
John C Dvorak: Raimondo, she is
our AI thing. Mo in, yeah, I
Adam Curry: was out here it is,
yeah, I knew because I was being
killed with it on Twitter. Here
we oh, this is the 57 second
version. Oh, that's even better.
I've only seen a 15 second let's
Donald
Unknown: Trump is already
addressing this on the campaign
trail. Let's take a listen to
that one
together. The administration
padded the numbers with an extra
listen to this one 818,000 jobs
that don't exist. So they said
they existed, and they never did
exist. They built them up so
that they could say what a
wonderful job they're doing.
So when you hear that, do you
potentially think that this new
numbers could be a liability for
this campaign?
No, when I hear that, first of
all, I don't believe it, because
I've never heard Donald Trump
say anything. Truth is, though,
from the Bureau of Labor, I
don't I'm not familiar with
that, but
Adam Curry: if this one thing I
despise, it's people posting
clips with music. We don't
listen
John C Dvorak: well, no, that
was the background music. No,
no, no, no, no,
Adam Curry: because I've seen
the clip without the background
music. Okay, they just do that.
Oh, I'm a producer. Now, shut
up. Stop it. I can't I
John C Dvorak: agree. I thought
that 1,000% 100% was gonna say
that. I realized that's no good
either. No, you can't, but I do
agree that people keep throwing
these music like this. They're
being creative, and it's like
ruins the clips.
Adam Curry: Yes, for the show,
John C Dvorak: for us, for us,
let's skip and go to Brooks,
okay, who now has a commentary
about gouging, and David
Unknown: on this matter of
economic policy, the Vice
President is also proposing the
first ever ban on price gouging
for groceries. This is something
I know you took particular issue
with. It polls well, with swing
voters, but economists say the
underlying reasons why prices
are higher, it's a more
complicated argument. Yeah.
I mean, she has some good
policies in this package. I
think the child tax credit is a
good thing. She wants to
deregulate housing so we can get
more homes, but the price
gouging is just well. Catherine
Rampell, The Washington Post
columnist and NewsHour
contributor, said it's
impossible to exaggerate how bad
this policy is, and I agree with
that. And Katherine had a good
line that, if you're i. Opponent
is calling you a communist.
Maybe don't lead with price
controls. And so price controls
just create shortages that
create black markets. We've seen
it happen in Venezuela. We've
seen it happen the Soviet Union.
Price controls just don't work.
What's worse about that? First,
it's trying to address a problem
that does not exist, price
grocery prices. Inflation has
been less than 1% for the past
year. It's over. We had a surge,
but it's over. The problem does
not exist. But the real core
problem is it expresses a level
of economic literacy which is
kind of surprising in a
responsible Democratic
candidate. You know, the idea
behind greedflation is that we
had all these years of low
inflation under Obama and under
buchas, and I guess people
weren't greedy. Then what about
June Biden gets in, and
suddenly, magically, they all
get greedy and state price
gouging. Oh, man,
Adam Curry: this, you know what?
Okay, so I was in Democrat run
Austin yesterday, which is still
dirty. It's just dirty. It's
filled with big box stores.
South Congress is ruined.
There's no more cute little It's
ruined. It's yeah, Lululemon.
Okay, great. So I'm in the hair
salon. And you know my girl, she
rents a chair there. So there's
three, three women, three
clients. I'm the only dude. I
admit it, there you go, and
it's,
John C Dvorak: there you have.
It's
Adam Curry: a second floor walk
up and, and so I'm sitting in
the chair and my girls putting
in, you know, my highlights, and
all of a sudden there's this
lady. She's standing right there
with a red shirt on black pants,
and, and she says something to
my girl, and I see her like,
freeze up. I'm like, What are
you a fed? I kind of jokingly
say that. And the lady says, No,
I'm State TDLR, what? Texas
Department of license and
registration and so. And this,
of course, is not just an Austin
thing, but so this is your
overreach. So all these girls
have to have licenses to cut
hair. They have to show their
their license. Then this lady
walks around the place one room,
walks around like your barbazol
is not labeled. What is going on
in America. What happened to
just putting out a candy cane in
front and cutting hair? It was
disturbing. And you could see
everyone was all, oh, it's like,
the Stasi is here. Oh, wow,
yeah. And this is, this has been
going on for decades. This is
not new. It's like, No, it's
John C Dvorak: the
administrative state gone nuts
and this
Adam Curry: into how come you
don't have the sexual harassment
poster on the wall? What
Unknown: it was disturbing.
Adam Curry: It's un American
telling you right now, under
curry administration, there'll
be no licenses for hairdressers.
I was like, if you shut this
down, my hair is going to burn.
Come by highlights in you can't
go out on the street with tin
foil.
John C Dvorak: You're digging a
deeper hole. I
Adam Curry: know. So,
John C Dvorak: so we hear all
this bull crap, and I want to
play ro Khanna now. Ro Khanna is
the Democrat congressman for
Silicon Valley. And I want to
play this because he's
expressing the he's representing
Silicon Valley and in his myriad
of corporate, large, massive
corporations, tech companies.
And this is, this is his
thinking representative,
Unknown: Ro Khanna, who,
during the event, called out
corporate greed. What happens
when you give a corporate tax
cut? Intel gets the money. Now.
What do they do? They go buy
their stock, or they give it the
dividend. That's what we've been
doing for 50 years. That's why
Walt's piled up in Silicon
Valley, where I represent in New
York, but it has hollow down
community after community.
John C Dvorak: Okay, hold on.
They get some tax cuts to get a
deal, and so then they give out
dividends, which is what you're
supposed to do if you're you
want money, yeah, so somehow
giving out dividends is bad. And
then what communities have these
corporations hollowed out? What
is he talking about? You telling
me that Palo Alto and Menlo Park
and the places where these guys
are are hollowed out? Yeah, what
are you nuts? How do these which
brings me to the big question,
why are these morons in Palo
Alto and Menlo Park reelecting
this guy? Are they? Yeah, over
and over, because the only
ridden Democrats that run these
companies, because
Adam Curry: they pay because
they pay him, because they got
big money, deep pockets. Yes,
hello. Welcome to the show.
Unknown: Welcome to the show.
All right, meanwhile,
Adam Curry: are we done with the
DNC? Because I'm kind of done
with the DNC.
John C Dvorak: I don't have
anything really that good. Well,
I do want to play one last thing
then SNC. This is clip SNC. This
is Stephanie Grisham. And I just
just have a comment to make. All
right, we
Unknown: are here with Stephanie
Grisham. You will remember, she
is Donald Trump's former press
secretary. She is now here
speaking at the DNC, because she
has been very clear. She has
completely changed her mind on
who should be the President of
the United States, and who
should not. I just want to ask
you, what was this moment like
when you decided I cannot do
this anymore. I cannot be a part
of this administration anymore,
and you ended up here speaking
at the DNC.
I know, you know, I had tried to
resign, actually, a few times
prior to January 6, but Melania
had taught me out of it. We were
really, really close. January 6,
of course, like I said in my
speech, was the day that I just
couldn't be there anymore. I
knew that he knew what he was
doing. I was so disappointed
that Melania wouldn't do at
least as something to try to
quell the violence, and I
haven't looked back since now.
Yeah, to be here is not
something I ever thought in my
career or life I would ever beat
but I'm proud of it. I stand by
it, and it's been great.
Everybody's been wonderful.
Adam Curry: She's a Republican.
John C Dvorak: She was in
Trump's press office for nine
months, right, right? I looked
her up on C span. There was no
press. She never did anything.
She got bumped over to become
Chief of Staff for Melania. And
then she and she'd been what
wants to quit all the time. She
can't. And here's the deal. She
look, here's the deal. She came
from Romney's group. Oh, well,
there you go. This is a classic
Trump hire. Yeah. Overall,
there's Romney, you know, I'm
trying to be the wrong
magnanimous. And let me give
this girl a job. She's just
another Romney. I Trump has got
to stop doing this. I
Adam Curry: want to give props
to Don Lemon. I don't have any
clips, but he is diligently
traveling around America,
sticking his mic in people's
faces. Now, these are men on the
street. So you can edit however
you want. But I would say 80% of
the people he's interviewing of
all colors of the spectrum, are
all saying Trump.
John C Dvorak: Yes, I and this
is some people are seeing this
as a setup. He's trying to get
work. He's getting attention by
doing this because, because he's
get all Trump, Trump, Trump, and
we know hates Trump, and it's
either that he's trying to just
get attention, because he's
getting a lot of attention. Gave
him attention right there. I
didn't clip him, though, no and
no good. And he is either trying
to get just get back into one of
the other jobs, or even get a
job at Fox. Well,
Adam Curry: he tried. He had
that job with Elon, and then he
screwed it up by trying to be a
journalist. He screwed that up.
Don't be a journalist. Just do
your job. Crazy, and he
John C Dvorak: never was a
journalist before. Why now so,
so
Adam Curry: big announcement
coming tomorrow, breaking
Unknown: news in the
presidential race. Robert F
Kennedy Jr plans to end his bid
for the White House. NBC News
and CNN reporting, he'll endorse
Donald Trump for president.
Kennedy is expected to address
the nation in a speech on
Friday. He was a long shot, but
could have pulled on the fence
voters away from the mainstream
candidates. And
Adam Curry: here is Nicole
Shanahan, his ill chosen vice
presidential pick on a podcast,
Unknown: there's two options
that we're looking at, and one
is staying in, forming that new
party, but we run the risk of a
Kamala Harris, Kamala Harris and
Walt's presidency, or we walk
away right now and join forces
with with Donald Trump. You
think
he's going to do that?
John C Dvorak: Well, here's the
what, what I've been hearing,
and this has been going on for
over a couple of weeks. They
were they sent feelers out to
like, and they started,
supposedly by contacting the
Harris campaigns, and Luke will
join force with you. Were
Democrats,
Adam Curry: which, which, by the
way, is completely not. It's not
even what was reported. It was
reported that he called both,
both parties, but he there was,
there's no evidence of him ever
saying other than sources
familiar with the matter that he
wanted to join the campaign. I'm
just putting that there because,
yeah, no arguments. I
John C Dvorak: don't even I do
think that something's going to
happen tomorrow, but supposedly
he went to them first. I don't
know why that would come out of
the blue and and the thing was a
quid pro quo. Uh, I uh, endorse
you, but I have to have a
cabinet spot because he's
looking to be to get an HHS or
something. He wants to get
trouble
Adam Curry: Attorney General.
It's a great spot for his
family.
John C Dvorak: It would then get
shot. But Hello, ruin the job. I
think he's, I think, yeah, it
was okay. So I think he would
love to be in HHS or something
where he has a, you know,
because his real, you know, his
legal stuff is all yes.
Unknown: And EPA, sure, yeah,
that kind of thing.
John C Dvorak: And they said, we
don't think so. And then that he
offered the same opportunity to
Trump, and he said, I don't
think so. And that's the way the
story goes. And now I guess
there's, you know, Trump, they
did some numb, they again the
story. Well, remember, they ran
some numbers and it showed that
Kennedy was going to take more
votes away from Trump, I believe
that, than Harris. And
Adam Curry: remember the so
called leaked call, which,
there's no such thing. Oh, oh
yeah. RFK Jr, son posted the the
video. He shouldn't have done
that, where Trump calls us, Hey,
man, these vaccines. Too many
vaccines. You know, it's too
much for these kids. Come on.
That was That, to me, was the
setup, and we identified it as
such.
John C Dvorak: We constantly do
because he's phony baloney
calls. And it's funny how some
of these calls, not that one
necessarily, but as a lot of
these calls, turn out to be a
three camera shoot. Somehow,
it's amazing. It's like these
reality TV shows where the guy's
in bed and then there's he picks
up the phone. Wait a minute, why
is there a camera in bed with
this guy so and then and a crew
and a guy holding a mic up. I
mean, come on. And then
Adam Curry: this clip from
France 24 who clearly, they're
French. They don't have humor.
They didn't get the joke. And
also, they build a whole story
around it that Elon Musk is
going to join the Trump
administration, and there's a
little kicker in the end. I want
you to pay attention to
Unknown: two billionaires who
did not always get along. Donald
Trump and Elon Musk now appear
to be the best of friends. Just
two years ago, they were lobbing
insults at each other, but the
Paris forged an alliance. Trump
was banned from Twitter for
inciting violence, but Musk
recently reinstated him with
much fanfare and a two hour
broadcast on the social media
platform. Musk is considered the
world's richest man as head of
both SpaceX and the electric car
maker, Tesla, during an
interview with Frans television,
he implied that he wielded more
power than the US President.
US presidency is like being
captain of a very large ship
with a small rudder.
By the way. That's an insane
laugh.
Adam Curry: That guy's that
guy's not right in the head with
that life. We gonna laugh about
Kamala. We got to laugh about
that, like being
Unknown: captain of a very large
ship with a small rudder.
So you're telling me you're more
powerful than the US President.
I mean, I can't declare war on
people
until 2020. Musk said that he
overwhelmingly voted for
Democrats, but now he envisions
himself as part of a new Trump
administration, posting this AI
generated image of himself as
the head of a department of
efficiency that he was willing
to serve, something Trump has
welcomed. So
Adam Curry: just France 24 not
get the doge joke.
John C Dvorak: It was the
Department of government
efficiency or Doge the Dogecoin,
yes, and the doge dog and yes,
they didn't get the joke. I got
the joke the minute I saw
Adam Curry: it, of course. Now
at the end here, this is
something that you and I argued
about, and you, you, you called
me out for being, oh, you read
it in The Guardian, did you? But
I have proof. Now, something
Unknown: Trump has welcomed, I'd
love if
it were for you. You're the
greatest cutter.
It's an alliance that is
ideological and strategic. Musk
is said to be donating $45
million a month to Trump's
campaign. As a result, Trump has
reversed his position on
electric vehicles, and
I'm for electric because I have
to be, you know, because Elon
endorsed me very strongly. Elon
again,
John C Dvorak: a joke I told
you, I can there are plenty of
I've had a clip a couple shows
ago is going to bring out, which
I'll go dig it up for the next
show, if I have to where Trump
goes back and says, electric
vehicles have their place, but I
still think gaska, he prefers
gas cars. And goes on and on and
on this bullcrap that the
guardians that is nonsense, of
Adam Curry: course, but I but he
did say it. And you says, You
said it's not he didn't say it.
And I said he did say it, of
course, it's a joke. Hello, of
course. No,
John C Dvorak: you were taking
it seriously, please. And you
took it from The Guardian. When
I asked you where it came from.
Him, you said you reluctantly
admitted it. You picked it up
for me.
Adam Curry: No, and I said that
I'll go get the
John C Dvorak: clip. And there
it is, and
Adam Curry: there's the clip.
Unknown: This is the clip. No, I
John C Dvorak: want the clip of
you showing you weren't knowing
it was a gag.
Adam Curry: Oh, please. Okay,
you insult my intelligence as
usual.
John C Dvorak: What do you mean
as usual? Always, always, always
chicken shit thing to say no,
Adam Curry: because I'm you okay
on the next show, I'll bring the
clip, and you will hear that I
knew it was a joke, but that he
said it. I said, he said, No,
John C Dvorak: he had, yeah, I
heard him say it too. No, yes,
not his
Adam Curry: shit. He didn't say
it. I don't care. Let's do
something much more important.
Precisely. Your colors have been
seen. No so here is this is the
story that I just need to talk
about. Dive
Unknown: teams have now
recovered the bodies of five of
the six missing people after a
luxury super yacht sank in
Italy. The 180 foot yacht was
hit by a possible water spout
during severe weather early on
Monday morning, it sank. Within
minutes, 15 of the 22 people on
board were able to get to
safety. One body was found in
the immediate aftermath, Crews
have been working since Monday
to locate the others. Two
Americans are among the missing,
although authorities have not
yet identified the bodies
recovered
today. Okay,
Adam Curry: so this is the super
yacht that capsized. It wasn't
that super but, no, it wasn't.
But my I have a different point
to make this guy. Ian Carroll,
please stop sending me his
videos. He is no good. The holes
that he leaves in things and the
connections he makes. I am a
conspiracy therapist.
John C Dvorak: I have Ian
Carroll. Oh, he's the
Adam Curry: guy with the long
hair, and then he does a green
screen behind him. He's got the
sunglasses on his head, and he
talks like this. So
Unknown: we might be witnessing
the CIA taking over this crazy
AI tech company, or these might
all just be crazy coincidences.
You tell me last night, some
freak water spout tornado sank
this luxury yacht off the coast
of Sicily, and on board was Mike
Lynch, who's been called the
Bill Gates of the UK. We'll get
to him in just a second. But
also on board was Jonathan
bloomer, the International Chair
of Morgan Stanley, one of the
biggest banks in the world. He
was apparently really good
friends with Mike Lynch, and
Mike Lynch just beat like this
multi year, super big fraud
trial that he got extradited to
the US for. He had a 0.5% chance
of acquittal, and he he got it.
And there's a whole other
mysterious death related the
exact same company and trial
that we'll get to in just a
second. But Mike Lynch founded
this company called autonomy
that he sold to HP for a bunch
of money. And then he was
throwing a victory party with
all of his lawyers and his
buddies in the chair of Morgan
Stanley. And then that boat they
were having their party on, like
weeks after this trial got hit
by this crazy freak water. So
wait, so on June 6 of this year,
they were found not guilty on
all charges. And then his co
defendant, Chamberlain, mission
of this company, he got struck
by a car while he was out
running and died.
Adam Curry: And so with that
Jack in the Box, music too. So
he does, he does. He has
millions of views, hundreds of
1000s of followers and people. I
was like, I like this guy. He's
great. He's really connecting
the dots. No, he's not. He's
not. And like, this crazy AI
company was a piece of crap
company. That's why he got sued.
That's why he got sued, exactly.
Oh, the CIA is taking over this
AI, uh, the CIA invented Google.
They don't need to kill people
to what end, I just have to stop
this. Stop watching this guy. He
is no good. And it's spinning
people up and they're getting
distracted, and they're like, go
outside. Go play outside. Play
autonomy. Do you remember the
autonomy? I don't. Oh, and then
another kind of dark trace, oh,
must be CIA stuff. Yeah. No,
they the captain did not have
the keel down on this super
yacht. These types of funnels,
wind water funnels do happen in
the Mediterranean? Certainly,
there were many eyewitnesses.
You can see the video itself.
The boat capsizes. And of
course, the crew is up on deck
trying to figure out what to do.
The hatch is open and these and,
you know, there's 22 people on
board, and 15 drown, or 15 saved
and seven drown the OH. Okay, it
happens. Bad day day wrecker,
but please stop with sending me
this guy's videos and telling me
he's the best thing since sliced
bread. I'm all in on
conspiracies. Didn't land on the
moon. I mean, for sure, we
didn't, by the way, I saw that
movie fly me to the moon. What a
disappointment.
Unknown: You know the movie with
Adam Curry: it was, it was like
a big apple TV production. And
supposedly, it's a, it's a movie
about the movie they made with
Woody harrelson's in it that
they made, they had a parallel
movie running. And, you know,
because they didn't think they
would land on the moon. Is a big
I thought was going to be a
comedy. It was disappointment.
John C Dvorak: Comedy, really.
That's a funny idea. No one's
done that.
Adam Curry: That's what I
thought it was going to be. And
I paid 19 bucks. It was very
disappointing, right?
John C Dvorak: Throwing you're
throwing money away, yes, what?
Yeah, you pay 19 bucks. Well,
you paid 19 bucks to watch
something on your computer,
Adam Curry: no, on the Roku. We
watch it on the on the TV. You
paid
John C Dvorak: 19 bucks. Yeah,
to watch a movie at home. To
give
Adam Curry: you this report, I
do it for the show, so everyone
else can save 19 bucks by not
watching yeah. Well,
John C Dvorak: good. They tell
people not to watch it. But
holy, holy moly, outrageous fee.
I thought it'd be like two
bucks, five bucks,
Adam Curry: where you been no,
no, when, because it was in
theaters, when something, it
just is still, I think it's
still in theaters, and it's had
its two month run, then they put
it on, on the even Amazon,
there's lots of new movies. You
have to pay up to that mission,
impossible. Also, 19 bucks, and
I don't mind paying for content.
I mean, it's too bad it sucked,
John C Dvorak: but you got
ripped off. I think I'd mind I
Adam Curry: watched the still
watch the whole thing. The art
direction was nice. I mean, I
could appreciate it. But now,
why?
John C Dvorak: Why? The
opportunity is what camel hair
should be working on
Adam Curry: make streaming
cheaper. Now I'd vote for camel
if she made streaming movies
cheaper. That
John C Dvorak: should be, that
should be five bucks. Next, 498,
498, how much money do these
people need to need to make $19
to watch a shit movie at home?
Yes. Unbelievable.
Adam Curry: Yeah, well, that's
what it is. Man, I can't help
it. It's what it is.
John C Dvorak: But that you're
keeping busy watching Veep,
Adam Curry: that's free.
John C Dvorak: VP, yeah, well,
that's the point. That's what
you want. We actually missed,
Adam Curry: you know, like,
eight episodes of Veep would
have fit into that two and a
half I was too long, too two and
a half hour movie was too long.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know. I
know. I feel bad about it,
believe me, what's her name?
She's a big name actress in it,
ooh,
Unknown: it's, uh, fly me to the
moon.
Adam Curry: It's They even
called it a romantic comedy.
What's her face? So
John C Dvorak: it wasn't funny.
Scarlet wasn't a comedy.
Scarlet, it wasn't romantic. No.
Scarlet was romantic for the
people that collected 19 bucks
from you. The worst
Adam Curry: part was Channing
Tatum. So he the Channing Tatum
and Scarlett Johansson and Woody
Harrelson plays like the the
government guy who was like, You
got to make this movie. Um, but
the word the worst thing they
did was, so they have to
convince all these congressmen
to fund the moon mission because
they didn't want to. Apparently,
I guess it's historical. And
then one of these nutty
congressmen is Colin juice, who
is Scarlett johansson's husband
John C Dvorak: and nepotism.
Adam Curry: But what it did is
it took you right out of the
story, like, oh, that's Colin,
just dumb, and then taking
John C Dvorak: me out of the
store, I don't know the guy
Adam Curry: well from Saturday
Night Live. You know the guy, he
does the The Weekend Update.
John C Dvorak: Oh, the Weekend
Update. Go, where that would
take me out? Yeah, and it took
Adam Curry: me right out of the
movie. I'm like, I mean, I
should have been refunded the
money for that alone.
John C Dvorak: You should have
asked for a refund. Yeah, okay.
Have you tried?
Adam Curry: Yeah. Have you ever
tried to get anything out of
Apple. Come on, nothing. You get
nothing from Apple, which, by
the way, is the only bipartisan
thing we have in America. This
90% of us use iPhones.
Unknown: Us. Well, not us, not
you and I, you. I mean, you
barely have a phone.
Adam Curry: It's just a brick.
It's a brick in your drawer. You
put it
John C Dvorak: in the drawer
where it belongs to be pestered
all day, but somebody ringing a
phone
Adam Curry: anyway, to wrap up
all of this stuff, the how
people get crazy about this
political stuff, I have a tip,
if someone go. Was off on you,
like, Project 19, no 2025, all
you have to say is, were you not
heard as a child? I think that's
what we should be saying to you,
John C Dvorak: not heard?
Unknown: Were you not heard?
That's
John C Dvorak: actually not bad.
Thank
Adam Curry: you. I think that's
you can just use that. Were you
not heard as a child? You know,
because it stuns people, like,
oh, what? And then they start
thinking about their childhood.
And then you can, you know,
John C Dvorak: I have, I have
one before we finish the
segment. I have one last DNC
clip, which is not about the
DNC, but it was a commercial,
okay, that was played on the DNC
show. Yeah, they had on CNN. And
I want to, I want, I'm playing
it for you, because I would like
you to tell me, there's an ad
for blockchain. I want you to
tell me, and with all black
actors, yeah, going on and on
about blockchain, I want you to
tell me, what is the point of
this commercial? The
Unknown: current system leaves
people out you're in the club or
you're not in the with things
like
Bitcoin and blockchain, we're
connecting
people from all walks. We're
offering education in an
industry that can impact their
lives today. This is how we can
have a generational impact.
Adam Curry: Crypto and
blockchain is about fixing the
broken system and giving people,
my community, a voice. My name
is Gary. My name is Doug. My
name is Julio, and I'm
empowering my community, my
community, my community with
Blockchain. Now, was there a
company name on the screen?
John C Dvorak: It was the demo.
It was not Democrats. It was
like the American industry for
blockchain, some screwy thing I
never heard of but what? How is
blockchain giving the community
voice?
Adam Curry: Have you not seen
the blockchain? I don't know
that's a good one. You got me
stumped. I have no I'm
John C Dvorak: glad, because it
got it has me stumped. And I'm
not Next it was like, maybe it
was code next time some
building's gonna get blown up
next week. But I mean, the whole
thing was the weirdest
commercial I've ever seen.
Blockchain is gonna give your
community voice
Adam Curry: next time I talked
to Mo, I said, Mo, are you in on
the blockchain? Do you have a
voice in your community with the
blockchain? I don't know it's,
it's DNC, man, they're crazy.
They're all crazy. They're all
nuts, and they're nuts. And
meanwhile, I walk outside in the
morning with my dog, and it's
just like, it's just Same old,
same as a chem trailer, too.
That's disappointing, but
otherwise, it's going to be 90
degrees tomorrow. It's going to
be beautiful Texas, wonderful.
The Earth is not boiling. You
know, praise God. We don't live
in the Middle East or in
Ukraine, and we're okay. Stay
away from this overheated
rhetoric of poop.
Unknown: Just go read a book.
Adam Curry: Karine Dvorak say,
Blockchain, Blockchain. Maybe
that's it. Maybe if we all just
check out the blockchain will
feel better about life. And with
that, I'd like to thank you for
your courage. Say in the morning
to you, the man who just put the
sea in the blockchain, say hello
to my friend on the other end,
the one, the only, Mr. John.
John C Dvorak: The morning, you
Mr. Adam curry. In the morning,
shifts the sea, boost on the
ground, feet in the air, shove,
shoves in the water and all the
Dames and nights out there in
the morning, we
Adam Curry: are identical to
last Thursday, one one less,
1889 versus 1890 so that's
pretty much on par. Hello,
trolls. Good to see you all.
Here you are checking us out in
the troll room, and it's nice,
nice to have trolls. The trolls
are good. Trolls are helpful.
And it's just nice to have a
studio audience who now you, you
don't look at it, but I am now
so trained that even if I'm
looking straight ahead, I see
the trolls trolling out of the
corner of my eye. It's,
John C Dvorak: it's because
they're writing for you. Oh,
yeah. Oh,
Adam Curry: tons of one line. I
mean, I didn't have to show up.
Just throw it through the atom
AI, and we're good to go.
John C Dvorak: You didn't get a
you got to get a good AI. Voice,
it sounds like you, and just
have it read from the from that
from the
Adam Curry: troll room. Yeah,
exactly, exactly, yeah. We don't
have a laugh track, though. We
should probably add that they're
listening@trollroom.io where you
can also hop into the troll room
and listen live to no agenda
stream, which is 24/7 the
absolute best way to do that, I
find, is use one of the modern
podcast apps. Troll room is in
is a part of the protocol for
live, which you cannot get on
your legacy apps. And so when we
go live, you get a bat signal.
The bat signal alerts you. You
tap on it, boom. You hear the
show live. You control along.
Everything's on these apps,
podcast apps.com, and you can
also use it to support us. Any
2.0 compatible podcast will take
advantage of the donation link
so you don't have to think about
no agenda donations.com you can
just be listening like, Oh,
these. Guy's so good, I gotta
give him some value. Boom. Click
it. You go straight to the
donation page. It's beautiful.
And we do that under the value
for value system. Actually, I
had something. Did I have
something that we needed to do
in this? Oh, that's for the
second No, that's for the second
segment. Value for value, time,
talent, treasure. I don't know
what happened with PayPal last
week, but it seems like Did, did
stuff get delayed and show up
today?
John C Dvorak: No, I don't think
so. It just got stuff. What
happened? No, what happened was
something. There was a, probably
a outage that went on for at
least eight hours, and it was
right during when we do most of
our donations, we collect most
of the donations in the out,
whatever the outage was, I never
got alerted. It resulted in a
very low moment,
Adam Curry: yeah, because I had
a wellness check done on the
Duke of Luna and and, and people
did that. You know, they say,
Hey, are you okay? Duke of Luna,
which I love that. I love our
community. I love our no agenda
nation. They so people like
knocking the baffled. Hey, man,
are you all right? The the kids
can't see you. And he said, No,
something went wrong, and his
donation didn't go through, and
it was a break in his what four
year streak, or whatever.
John C Dvorak: Well, we get he's
still credited for a
continuation, because he said
that he contributed, and he
never got the confirmation. No,
didn't think much of it,
because, you know, yeah, and so,
and then he never got his
credit, and so he felt, you
know, slighted and irked. Yeah,
Adam Curry: of course he did.
There may be more people anyway.
You can support us with time,
talent or treasure. There are so
many people doing we really need
to have people continue to hit
people in the mouth and tell
them to listen to the show. I
see a lot of people doing this
on x. Make sure you tell your
neighbors send that clip of that
Tim waltz told you to clip and
send to your neighbors and say,
you hear this. This is crap,
right? You should listen to this
show and then send them to no
agenda show.net. That means
stuff like that really helps.
And not everybody is going to is
going to get it or going to be,
you know, in on, you know,
John C Dvorak: feel like they
there are people that do not
like what we have to say, and
sometimes
Adam Curry: they'll try two or
three goes, and then there's
like, oh, you know. And now I
get it, it does happen. And, you
know, the more people we have in
no agenda nation, see the Duke
of Luna. Connection is
protection. We always want to
thank the people who deliver us
some phenomenal talents. That's
our artists. We are one of the
few. I think I'm gonna have Dave
Jones run a run a query. I think
there may be only 10 shows in
the entire podcast universe
John C Dvorak: that update 4
million, that update their
artwork
Adam Curry: on a regular, on per
show. And we love it a lot
because it really gets people's
attention. It's like, it's not
just after a while, you know,
you see the same artwork for
pivot or for Joe Rogan, like,
okay, you know, and you don't
think about it, but when you see
the art that, let's see who was
it that Scaramanga did for
Episode 1687, we titled that
identified. I got a lot of
positive comments. People like,
best album art ever, hilarious,
and it was the guy with the
rainbow shirt running away from
the monk, from a hilarious
monkey clearing a nod to M pox.
And people loved it. And I think
that that reminds people that
we're doing the show, people
have busy lives, you know,
they're all wrapped up in
looking at super yachts and
trying to figure out how, how a
directed energy weapon capsized
it. So instead of that, you
know, like, oh well, there's no
agenda, I'll listen to the show.
And people do, and I like, what
Scaramanga did. We both thought
it was funny.
John C Dvorak: It was funny.
Unfortunately, it was the
fallback. Is the one we liked
the
Adam Curry: most. Yeah. Was not
good and not not the right
dimensions. Everything
John C Dvorak: was wrong about
it was capitalist agenda, yeah,
uh, the rolling whatever. The
rolling into rolling agendas,
the rolling agendas. And it was
a bathroom with a bunch of
graffiti and no agenda thing
wasn't big enough or bold
enough. And curry Dvorak thing
was you couldn't read any of the
gags. There was tons of gags
that were hilarious. The whole
art piece was very pretty.
Adam Curry: I mean, this is
something I would print out and
hang up. That's how pretty is
it?
John C Dvorak: Gory. It was
gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous,
gorgeous in a very artistic way,
but useless as the show art,
yeah,
Adam Curry: because that is by
the time you shrink it down to
postable size. You know, it just
looks like a crappy toilet. And
you don't see all the, I mean, I
see the gags he had. All the
gags, cheesecake, love DNC 68
What else did he have? M pox,
thighs. What. That is for a good
time. 333, K, A, M, dash, a, l,
A, S. I mean, mac and cheese
time. I listen to the best
podcasting universe. It just had
good stuff in there. Yeah. And
was there anything else? Well,
John C Dvorak: there's a no, but
there's a piece I wanted to talk
about. Okay, which was pod piece
by a newcomer, Sean the pan pod
mastery, which is just in the
row below. And it's got a guy
laying with his cat. And I just
want to mention that if you're
going to do a AI art check and
take a look at what's going on
here, like, for example, he's
got a mug and it's got no
agenda. Mug with no agenda
misspelled.
Adam Curry: I didn't even see
that. Let me see
John C Dvorak: it's a G,
Adam Curry: E, D, A G, E, A G,
E, D, D, yeah,
John C Dvorak: okay, AG, and
then there's some head there's a
headline in
Adam Curry: this media, media
masturbation, yeah.
John C Dvorak: It's just like a
typical AI. When you have a do
wordage, it always screws it up.
It I don't know why you just
say, I want you to put this word
in the art, and you can't do it.
It's like, How many fingers you
can't get the fingers right?
It's like that. Why can't you do
why can't AI put wordage in that
is what you just simple. You
just tell it what you want, and
it should just take and
transpose it. But no, no, no, it
adds extra letters. It puts
things upside down. It's a joke.
It is.
Adam Curry: I don't know why.
It's the most it's the oddest
thing. You know, people also are
sending me songs, end of show
mix songs, and so they'll send
me a song that is clearly AI,
because you can hear it in the
vocals, and they spend a lot of
time writing the lyrics. I'm
like, Okay, you made a song that
is not a hit. It's not it won't
do parody songs. It can't,
because they get sued, and
they're already getting sued,
and they said, but you know,
it's, it's the same as the art.
It's, it has, it's, has no soul.
Soulless is that has there ever
been a song that's become a hit
that is AI, no, not yet. Oh,
please. It won't. It's not going
to happen. That's not how I
guarantee there will be one.
Okay, all right, let's put that
in the book right now. Put in
the book there will not be a
song from Ai that's going to be
a hit. That's not how the music
industry works yet. Okay, yeah,
all right, I'm not too worried,
believe me, I'm not too worried.
See if there's anything else,
please stop with the Kamala
Harris fellatio stuff. It's not
funny when I'm never going to
use it. Just Kamala Harris,
Donald Trump, Joe Biden, Tim
Walz, don't we're not going to
use it. And if you're going to
do and now John H says, Well,
this is a hand drawn curry and
Dvorak. I don't believe that for
a second. He has us both in two
locations. I'm in Texas. I look
like a like a douchebag with a
beard.
John C Dvorak: You look like
without a beard in your shorts
Adam Curry: and you have socks
in your shoes. It's wrong.
Everything's wrong about it. And
you can't just slap a 33 on it
and think we're going to go for
it. We've got to be, we've got
to be harsh
John C Dvorak: pictures. It's
just not even close and terrible
they are. And nobody, and that's
not and, yeah, I agree. This is
not hand drawn. No, no, unless
it's like some drawing that he's
put aside, some from years ago
of two guys, and it don't even
look like and again, it the AI
will wear glasses. I haven't
worn glasses for decades. The AI
Adam Curry: cannot be funny for
you. It just can't. You have to
be funny. You know, comic strip
blogger. He's all in on on AI,
and I think I posted something
like, you know, he said, Oh,
it's all over. Podcasters, AI
voices are now going to take
over. You don't need it anymore.
It's all great. I'm like, No, it
has no soul. It's soulless. And
then he points you. Why
John C Dvorak: does anybody
think that way? He was commented
or Blogger? He thinks very I
think, no, I think it's some
sort of weird eternal optimism.
Well, all futuristic things are
somehow going to
Adam Curry: be going to be
great. Well, listen to the
example. He says these AI, voice
over, voices are improved bigly.
Just hear this example, or
Unknown: possible for you to be
the one behind the microphone.
Hey, is that a steam of my other
long time good voiceover friend.
Hi
again, Tom. And speaking of
things you can do, AI, voiceover
has a ton of male and female
voices to choose from. You can
choose what's best for your
project. And in your case, Tom,
people might not have to be
subjected. Of cheesy jokes and
puns. Yes, you think they're
funny, but those puns can be
punishing.
I won't. I won't bring up the I
mean, seriously,
Adam Curry: seriously, will
people listen to that and will
they be happy? No, because it's
not funny. Ai cannot. Ai cannot
do humor. Timing, exactly.
Timing. Good point timing
anyway, and that's good because,
you know, it can AI get into a
stupid argument about Elon Musk
and what Trump said about him?
No, it's never gonna happen yet.
This is where you say yet.
John C Dvorak: I don't have a
yet for that one.
Adam Curry: Let's thank the
people who delivered us some
treasure in our trifecta. We'd
like to thank our executive and
Associate Executive Producers
right here in the show, pretty
much like Hollywood, because we
also give them an actual
production credit, which you can
use anywhere credits are
accepted and recognized, such as
LinkedIn. You can always put it
on your letterhead and your bio,
but also imdb.com so you can be
right up there with Scarlett
Johansson, who has a credit
because she was also a producer
on fly me to the moon. You can
be a producer, and you can call
yourself an executive producer,
$300 or above, and we read your
note, or an Associate Executive
Producer, $200 above we read
your note right there on
imdb.com and we start off with
Troy Lafferty from Newark, Ohio,
who sends us $600 which is nice.
Someone else sent us. Was it 600
on the last show as well?
John C Dvorak: Yeah, there was a
600 in the last show, but it was
six something. I think those are
these. That's interesting,
Unknown: weird,
John C Dvorak: but I caught
myself before you caught me.
Adam Curry: Well, kind of, okay,
kind of, no, not. Kind of, okay.
ITM John and Adam type written,
by the way. Or looks, is this a
typewriter? Is this a printer? I
can't really tell.
John C Dvorak: I think it's a I
think it's a printer using a
type font, hmm, okay.
Unknown: Well, it looks good. It
looks good. I like it.
Adam Curry: Hold on a second. I
got to get my jingles lined up
for him. Here we go. Please
accept my humble contributions
of $600 contribution of $600
Your show is the highlight of my
listening adventures. I truly
appreciate John's storytelling
and sense of humor. Can't get
that from Ai, as well as his
tips of the day, priceless
information. Linsby, hey, I have
a couple of tips. As if people
are now getting into the tips of
the day. Yeah, they are. Adam,
thank you for serving as a
conspiracy therapist, where
would we be without the media
deconstruction that you two
provide? Thanks again for giving
us the best podcast in the
universe. Please call out
douchebags. John C Lovins from
Albany Ohio, Albany Ohio, and
grateful Dave from Newark, Ohio.
I would like the following
jingles and a yak karma. I got
some yak karma ready for you.
Smoking hot wife shares secret
and anything from Alex Jones.
This is from Troy Lafferty in
Newark, Ohio.
Unknown: Oh, there's no winning.
We don't
like to foster a competitive
atmosphere, but we laugh a lot
now. Everyone hug and share a
secret.
I don't like them putting
chemicals in the water that turn
the friggin frogs game.
You've got karma. There you go.
Yuck, yuck, karma, Jack,
John C Dvorak: meanwhile, we got
brief, pronounced that isn't
he's an Aachen Deutsch,
nellison. Nellison, I'd say
nellison, yeah, in Aachen. And I
have actually been there, sure.
I don't know why, but I was 456,
18, and he simply says, Thanks,
no karma, no jingles, but he's
going to be a Duke, a German
Duke, Deutsche Duke, or he's in
Deutschland, but he's a Deutsche
German, a Deutsche Duke, a
Deutsche Duke, a Deutsche Duke.
Going to be a Duke this year.
And so, okay, thank you for your
information. Steve Brock
Adam Curry: is in Springfield,
Missouri, 380 Oh, this is a
three boob. 380 dot oh eight.
Gentlemen, treasure for the
treasure of info and
entertainment you provide twice
a week, every single week,
please call out Bob from
Springfield for still being a
douchebag. Jingles, Camela,
don't come. I got hairy legs and
French Bulldog karma, do not
come.
Unknown: I got hairy legs.
Karma. You.
John C Dvorak: Okay, we now have
Steve Brock in Springfield,
Missouri. No, no, no, no, no,
I'm sorry we I'm looking at his
note. Christy, Chris, is it?
Christy, yeah. Christy in
Huntington Beach, of all places,
366, 11. You know, when I had
that they're trying the other
mic. I moved everything around
so this mics in the wrong spot.
Oh,
Adam Curry: by the way, I'm
loving this. Beta one even more.
Boy, it's just, it's something
about it. I mean, this, this is
the one man, what's a good mic?
It's, it's, no, it's the best
mic in the universe.
John C Dvorak: Okay, ITM gents,
she writes, uh, dusting off the
checkbook to avoid the nasty
fees. Ah, she sent a check in
and she sent a card. It's a nice
little card, nice. And you can
tell it's a card because it
doesn't sound like paper. Sounds
like a card when you shake it.
Hopefully this arrives before
Sunday show 1687 it didn't as it
falls on my birthday. Oh, well,
that's okay. She's good. She's
getting her full credit. We had
a number of people coming in. I
had a guy moaning about his
note, you know, he sent
something, hoping the post
office was a little quicker. No,
John, you were right. She writes
6611 fell flat. Just goes to
show that boobs always win. Oh,
Adam Curry: is he? Is she the
progenitor of the 6611
Unknown: Yeah, okay. She is the
one, yeah,
John C Dvorak: uh, this donation
brings me to Dame status. I
think she's listed. Yep,
Adam Curry: hope so. No, no,
she's not. Oh,
John C Dvorak: this is this
she's not listed. Calling me,
apologizing shortly, I'll
Adam Curry: do it now. I'll take
care of it.

denotations are down, he writes,
denotations are down. I suspect
this donation puts me into
knighthood, but I am too lazy to
do the accounting. I'll do a
follow up donation with correct
accounting. Ah, there you go.

John C Dvorak: Joe Dirks, Parts
Unknown, $300 and this is
actually a switcheroo. You might
want to make a note, yes, this
donation is for Arno. All caps,
eight all caps. It is a delayed
welchmertz screw up donation. If
you know, you know, well, Welch
Adam Curry: Mertz is Cafe Welsh.
Mertz is the podcast outfit
where we did the meetup. So I'm
thinking this is a some kind of
low.
John C Dvorak: It's probably a
make good from the meetup or
Arno or no when they sent the
money and Arno didn't get his
credit, something like that.
Well, Arno gets credit for this.
Yes, he does.
Adam Curry: We move on to the

Linda lupatkin in Lakewood,
Colorado, $200 jobs, karma, hey,
hey, that was, of course, the
title, the subject line of the
newsletter. It always works.
It's a classic. I only do it.
Adam Curry: I do it rarely, once
every half year, I'd say no,
John C Dvorak: about once a year
that I haven't done it for about
a year. And every time I do it,
it's a huge success. It is for
people out there who do direct
marketing, yep, we want one of
the little tips out there when
you're in trouble, when you're
in trouble, when you when people
aren't opening your emails, you
want to use the subject line,
hey, now I use lowercase h with
Adam Curry: an exclamation mark,
no. I just said, Hey, oh, okay,
John C Dvorak: since you brought
it up, I avoid using exclamation
marks in my head, in my subject
lines, because they will get
triggered. They will trigger
spam filter, right? You're
right. So no matter how ex
exclamationy You Your line is,
don't use them anyway. So okay,
jobs karma, hey, she writes for

Linda Lou Duchess of jobs and
writer of resumes on the
producers list,
Adam Curry: yes, ma'am, uh oh.
Jobs karma, yes, jobs karma,
Unknown: jobs, jobs, jobs and
jobs. Let's vote
Adam Curry: for jobs. And from
bensonville, Illinois, 208, dot
22 Eli, the coffee guy says,
I've been looking forward to the
media deconstruction of the DNC
convention. You got it if it is
anywhere near as rapidly over
enthusiastic as the NPR coverage
I caught a few minutes of. Then
we're in for a treat. Thanks for
doing the hard work of wading
through the propaganda so we
don't have to. Yes, that's
another thing I want to say, if
people you know, besides saying,
Hey, were you not heard as a
child? You can just say,
John C Dvorak: heard as a child.
Yes,
Adam Curry: you can just say,
Listen to no agenda show. You
don't need to watch any news.
They'll bring you up to speed,
and you'll know everything,
whether you agree with those
guys or not, which we hope you
don't, at least not all the
time. You'll get your dosage. We
play 70 to 80 clips per show.
People don't realize that I got
some guy who emailed me, how
many clips come from the
community? How much do you do
based on your own research?
John C Dvorak: And that was,
that was his actual voice,
completely.
Adam Curry: I ran it through a
chat GPT, and that's how it
sounded. I'm like, Well, if you
think about it, I would say 40%
comes from the community of that
really, 15% is comes pre
clipped. The rest is P I mean,
for sure, our producers send us
links and stories and things to
look at, but the clipping we do
most of that ourselves, even
with the Jones brothers, I mean,
and they send it, except for the
John C Dvorak: Jones brothers,
when they go, of course, they've
bailed out on me. But except for
them, I do all my I just, I have
a notebook. Yep, I watched, I
watched TV all day, yep, mostly
news shows, yep, and so I'm
watching, and when I see
something, online when the
networks are right down the time
date, and then I'll go to the
computer later using my Google
TV connection, and we'll clip
the things individually. So
Adam Curry: I have a great
resource, Dave Ackerman, and he
sends me every day at least. But
I want to say 20, sometimes 30,
links to deutscheville and
France 24 and TRT. And I like it
because I can stay up, and I use
very few of them, relatively
speaking, I like it because I
can stay up to speed with what's
going on, you know, because you
don't get that kind of reporting
here in the US. So that's almost
like my television. That I'm
watching, and then from time to
time, oh, I'm going to clip
this. This is good, and that's
how it works. But you are the
producers of the show, so
whoever that was, and I thought
it was a little rude, he didn't
follow up and say, Hey, thanks,
because, you know, I'm sure he
was looking to slam us or
something, or write a story. It
felt a bit like a podcast
journalist, you know. But
ultimately, Lexy Mora, there are
between 70 and 80 clips that you
hear in every single no agenda
show and and we weave those
together as if it's second
nature.
John C Dvorak: So it's a post
modern approach to Yes, witness
analysis, unscripted,
Adam Curry: without
coordination. I don't even know
what John's clips are. I mean,
half of them are indecipherable.
What is DNS? I mean, anyway,
thanks for doing the hard work
John C Dvorak: of waiting
through the typos. I do typos on
purpose to confuse him. Yeah,
and then
Adam Curry: we can never find
him later. It's like it's a DNC
clip. Okay, won't show up in my
search. That's why I donate for
producers who may need help to
stay up while listening to the
drawl convention speeches. This
evening is the final one. Order
up some gigawatt coffee. Use
code ITM 20 for 20% off your
order. Stay caffeinated. PS, can
I get an L bag, daddy, for the
end of show mix? We're already
full for this end of show mix,
but I will put it in on the
schedule. And I was gonna say
something else. Oh, yeah, you
know, I was thinking, why? You
know, podcast networks have
failed continuously. Spotify
failed. You know, the
advertising is not working for
people. Why wouldn't an outfit
like gigawatt Coffee Roasters.
Why wouldn't they start their
own podcast network and just
make it all a gigawatt podcast?
You know, like the old days,
good you know? I mean, you know,
and they pay people based upon
performance. I'm just thinking
it would, you know, we'll get
John C Dvorak: an idea way to
lose our coffee, uh, connection.
Thanks for that idea. What
Adam Curry: am I thinking? I'm
sorry. That was very bad.
John C Dvorak: I get some coffee
every month on them, and it's
like, you know, I'm not
complaining, no. So tonight will
be the night we
Adam Curry: have, we have one
more, one more donation. I
believe.
John C Dvorak: Oh no, I don't
want to. I'm just not a
interregnum. Interregnum, yeah,
is a word tonight, Kamala.
Kamala, come Kamala. I don't
know what her name is. She gives
her speech, and I'm putting
money down that she is going to
say that she was a prosecutor
and she knows Donald Trump's
type.
Adam Curry: No one's taken that
bet. I mean, that's an obvious
one. That's
John C Dvorak: all she has to
say. She has one speech. She's
worse than Biden.
Adam Curry: Do you think she'll
do the cackle?
John C Dvorak: No, yes,
definitely will not.
Adam Curry: I think we should
put money on the cackle. I say
she can't help herself. Well,
she
John C Dvorak: chortles. Does
that count? No, it has to be.
Adam Curry: I think she'll do
three of them,
Unknown: three counties over
John C Dvorak: and under. Three
count, okay, one count point
five, over and under. That's the
way you do it. 2.5
Adam Curry: and right after
that, she'll just gonna do a
full on, sit down interview with
CBS for what's their son for?
What's their Sunday show? CBS,
John C Dvorak: 60 minutes. 60
Minutes. She's
Adam Curry: gonna do a 60
Minutes interview so they can
edit it and make it look good,
John C Dvorak: maybe. Well, here
we are. Last donation comes from
Kimberly. Kimberly cram in North
Fort Myers, Florida, and she
comes in with a flat tent, $200
and says the simple line, 10
more years for no agenda, four
Adam Curry: more years. What's
the over, under on 10 more years
of no agenda? Good luck with
that. I don't, I mean, and it's,
it's the only reason why is just
we've had, now had, how many
presidential coverage, campaigns
of coverage. This is our fourth
Obama.
John C Dvorak: Well, we also had
before Obama. We
Adam Curry: had, yeah, we had
this, right? We had no, we had
Obama.
John C Dvorak: We started Obama.
Bill Obama came into a our show
started a year before Obama,
but, but so the first president
it was running at the time, I
forgot. I
Adam Curry: didn't say how many
presidents. I said how many
campaigns? So Obama campaign
page, yes, we had Obama versus
Clinton. Yeah, no, Obama versus
Romney. So Obama wanted Obama to
Trump and now Kamala says for
John C Dvorak: President. No.
Five, because you get Trump
versus Biden he. Don't leave
that one out. Get an extra one.
Adam Curry: Thank you all so
much to our executive and
Associate Executive Producer of
Episode 1688, we appreciate
anybody who supports the show
financially. You can do it with
time, talent and treasure. We do
need the treasure. So. And you
see, hey, you know what to do.
You can go to no agenda
donations.com. It doesn't matter
what you send us, as long as it
represents the value getting out
of the show the value for your
own personal value system.
That's what we want. We read $50
and above, not all the notes.
Those come for associate and
executive and Associate
Executive and executive
producers, and we implore
everyone to look at a sustaining
donation. If we have implore
them, implore, I'm using
implore. Heard that please go to
no agenda donation.com. Thank
you again for supporting us. For
1688
Unknown: our formula is this, we
go out. We get people in the
mouth.
I got hairy legs.
Adam Curry: I heard you say
something on DH unplugged, and I
thought nothing of it, what kind
of little bit? And then I came
across this 32nd clip, and like,
oh, maybe, if I I'm going to set
you up, and then you can tell us
about this. This is climate
change related. Samsung
developed a new solid state
battery for electric vehicles
now. So what does this mean?
Normally, in an electric
vehicle, and everyone who's had
an EV, you know, is basically
going around, it's like, Man, I
only have like, a 400 mile
range, and it takes, like, I
don't know, it takes like, 17
hours to charge the dumb thing.
And, you know, so this new
battery can can has a 600 mile
range, 20 year lifespan, and it
charges in nine minutes. Like,
okay, this is a game changer.
Game Changer Is this true silver
based batteries that, I mean,
this guy is just computing it
into hours. I mean, that's a lot
of parameters there that would
change that. But What's the
dealio?
John C Dvorak: What's the
dealio? The this silver is
silver carbon, I think, is the
is the technology. This is Ace.
And there's a certain name for
this type of battery, which is
unpronounceable, and it's been
researched at Duke University,
probably more than any place
else in Samsung, I guess, has
picked up the gauntlet, and
they're looking at it too. This
is a lab thing. This is
something that somebody dreamed
up, but it's called solid state
battery, as if other batteries
aren't solid. But okay, solid
state battery, which indicates
some sort of electronics thing
going on within the confines of
the battery, which makes me
sound, sounds like a little like
a like a super capacitor. But I
think is just just nonsense. I
don't think this battery's ever
gonna this is like all the crazy
batteries that developed the
zinc air battery, my all time
favorite. I like the salt
battery and battery the salt
battery.
Adam Curry: I like the salt
battery a lot. And by the way,
that sounds like a very
expensive battery,
John C Dvorak: yes, but it's
gonna let if it lasts 20 years
and it does what it's supposed
to do, and nine minute charging,
I'm sorry, uh, nice idea. Maybe
it works. Maybe you have a
little double A cell version of
him, maybe that would be nine
minutes. But I think that this
is pie in the sky. I I'll, I'll
believe it when I see it, all
right, but I brought it up
because I think it is floating
around in the in the
conversation, and it will, it
may jack up the price of silver.
All right,
Adam Curry: I have another one
for you, because this is,
although you are nor Cal, this
is So Cal. I wonder it's all
Cal, and you are the boots on
the ground, and you're going to
go down with that ship, you
know, you're going to be like
that, that guy on the Super
yacht,
Unknown: suffocating high
temperatures in her Lancaster
community, means she's been
cranking up the AC and her July,
Bill skyrocketed from about 200
to $700
we have given up quite a lot in
order to pay the bill,
extracurricular activities that
we normally like to do, trips
that we normally like to
take. If your bill went way up
last month, it could be because
you have a time of use rate plan
that means you're paying higher
costs during the peak hours,
between four and 9pm weekdays,
and you might save money by
switching to a tiered rate plan.
With a
tiered rate plan, monthly bills
are based on total energy
consumption, not on the time of
day when they're using the
energy. KTLA
consumer reporter David Lazarus
says SoCal Edison time of use.
Rate plans are a way to motivate
customers to conserve power. Why
shouldn't
you be able to do your laundry
whenever you want? Well, the
problem is is our grid just
simply can't take the burden,
and as the population grows,
that means we need to try to
find ways to incentivize people
to help out. You.
Adam Curry: Have your energy
bills go skyrocketed. Yeah,
John C Dvorak: but it's not
because of what they're talking
about. They've added all these
extra charges to the bill,
including transmission charges,
just the charge for the wires
you're leasing these wires. Now
there is a scam going on in
California regarding the power
bills that is not being
addressed by what used to be a
powerful Public Utilities
Commission that has been de
balled has no power anymore, and
they letting Pacific Gas and
Electric just run roughshod over
the public at large. Well, it's
a complete outrageous, typical
California scam that takes place
during Democratic
administrations. I remember the
days of Gray Davis, when he was
the governor, that one of the
few that we've had the guts to
recall is
Adam Curry: that the guy who
killed his intern.
John C Dvorak: I don't think so.
Okay, but Gray Davis was one of
the worst of the governors,
typical Democrat, and that's
when we had the rolling
blackouts and rolling brownouts,
and we had the contracts with
Enron and all the rest of it,
and it was a scam bola from the
get go, and once this guy was
ousted, they put in
Schwarzenegger, of all people,
at least, had calmed that down,
and we didn't have blackouts.
How did we go from blackouts and
brownouts and slowdowns to no
blackouts? I mean, this whole
thing is, is ludicrous. And this
is the, this is the corruption
of the of the party, of the
Democrat Party, and since
they've captured the state with,
I say, fraudulent voting, like
they like Oregon and Washington,
Oregon, so mail in and so is
Washington. Washington State's
100% mail in and California is
mostly absentee ballots. It's
just, it's we were screwed
unless they get rid of these
people. So is this a price you
have to pay to be here?
Adam Curry: Do you think there's
Enron level shenanigans going on
again?
John C Dvorak: I would have to
assume so with the Yeah, I had
some, some door to door guy come
by with the door to door guy,
yeah, these door to door guys
that come around political guys.
And he's, he's coming around to
selling solar stuff and and he
shows that he had a breakdown of
the bill. Wait, wait, you
actually
Adam Curry: opened up and you
talked to him. I always do. Were
you packing?
John C Dvorak: Usually carry a
large bowie knife. So
Adam Curry: really, I believe
you,
John C Dvorak: the guy's showing
me the break that he's and he's
showing me some of the scams
going on. And I was fascinated
by it. But it's just is, yes,
it's very scammers. You know, we
Adam Curry: got a cool note from
cerventis. I don't know if you
saw this, because he's, he's a
door to door sales guy and, and
I've had many of these people
show up, and I'm like, Wow, this
explains a lot. Now, he says he
in 2015 he moved from Maine to
Georgia to become a door to door
roof salesman. It's something I
didn't know exists that he says,
As DTD salespeople is what you
call them, trend to get shot.
Where I come from, yes, I would
say in Texas, you got to be
careful too. But it's a massive
industry, and I believe it's a
huge contributing factor to the
expense of home insurance.
Listen to this. What happens is
these contractors will target
neighborhoods that were built
with shingles that have either
been recalled or otherwise
discontinued. They send
salespeople around to knock on
doors and offer a free roof
inspection to homeowners if any
damage is found that could
remotely be considered storm
damage. And we That's why people
come around here, a lot of hail,
shingles missing from wind, etc.
The homeowner is then convinced
that, oh, oh, no, your roof is
destroyed. But good news,
there's a way to fix that one
damage, shingled shingle your
insurance company will pay to
replace the whole roof. This has
led to millions of fully
functional roofs being replaced
for free. In quotes, as anyone
with a basic understanding of
economics will understand this
can only go on for so long. The
average roof replacement costs
anywhere from 10 to $20,000 and
while insurance is a bit of a
scam and the companies aren't
likely to go broke anytime soon,
they're also going to do what
every other company does and
pass the cost on to the
consumers. I think this is
exactly what's happening you
Unknown: who in what way,
because
Adam Curry: I have seen these,
we have a metal roof.
John C Dvorak: Oh, no, you
talking about the roof thing. I
thought you were talking about P
genies over.
Adam Curry: No, no, no, I've
moved on to door to door.
Salesman. Hello, hello,
John C Dvorak: yeah, but it
seemed you've made it. You made
a jump. Yes, it's
Adam Curry: what I do. But this
is an outrageous scam. Sounds
like it's hurting everybody.
That probably is, except for
servants, who should immediately
become an instant night,
Unknown: because he's doing
this. You're right.
John C Dvorak: He should send us
$1,000 and become an instant
night, exactly. You're right.
Adam Curry: So here's another
scam that I bumped into this.
John C Dvorak: Let's just start
guilt tripping all the people
that write us.
Adam Curry: So Steck, he always
sends me a whole bunch of
articles. He doesn't send clips
anymore. He sends articles he
stopped clipping, which is too
bad, because I, like a lot of
his clips were good after you
John C Dvorak: obviously weren't
using him enough. Steck is very
sensitive to usage. Well, he
gave up on you, and then he
moved. Yeah, because I wasn't
using it, I wasn't falling all
over myself.
Adam Curry: So he sends me a
link to the Atlantic. The
headline the ozempic shortage is
over. Obesity drug shortages
have led to a boom in risky
alternatives. They may be
impossible to stop. And I
initially was like, okay,
whatever. But then I get these
other clips. This is from the
Jones brothers from Steve from
NPR. Consider this. This is an
advertising Blitz. They are.
They're out to get rid and with,
I think, faulty information, if
not outright lies, they want to
stop the GLP one compounded
medicines and get everybody on
ozempic. And certainly don't
want insurance companies paying
for anything but the brand name
stuff.
Unknown: When you imagine where
these drugs are prescribed most
for weight loss around the US,
maybe you're thinking, Oh, Los
Angeles, of course, or maybe New
York. But you know, it turns out
the capital of the weight loss
drug boom is in Kentucky, in a
small city called Bowling Green,
at least 4% of the population in
that city and surrounding area
got a prescription in just the
last year. Consider this, weight
loss drugs have transformed an
American city. Is that a good
thing? Bowling Green, Kentucky
might seem like an unlikely hub
for weight loss drugs, that is,
until you dig into the data,
Kentucky has one of the highest
obesity rates in the country,
and rates of adult diabetes and
hypertension are going up and
up. Well, let me ask you,
because the weight loss drug
industry has struggled with
supply shortages for years,
which has been especially
harmful for patients with
diabetes, because they actually
need these drugs to stay alive.
So how is a city like bowling
green keeping up with demand for
these weight loss drugs.
Adam Curry: By the way, I think
that Kamala should in her
speech, you say, I'm going to
get you, I'm going to lower the
price of ozempic to $35 now that
would be something, huh, instead
of insulin, which, apparently
the whole country is on insulin.
So here is, here's the scam. One
Unknown: of the ways that the
city and this is actually
happening across the US, but
it's really obvious in Bowling
Green is there are these medical
spas and weight loss clinics
that are popping up that offer
what are known as compounded
drugs, compounded versions of
zeppbound or Manjaro or wegovy
or ozempic, and they're
essentially like off brand
versions that are made by
compounding pharmacies, which is
allowed during supply shortages.
And so a lot of these medical
spas are that
Adam Curry: laugh, and it's also
a lie.
John C Dvorak: What was the that
was the laugh? Tell you heard
it? Yep, because she said
Adam Curry: these are allowed
during medical shortages. No,
John C Dvorak: no, that's not
true. That's a lie.
Adam Curry: So that's why this
is a scam, borrow
Unknown: or wegovy or ozempic,
and they're essentially like off
brand versions that are made by
compounding pharmacies, which is
allowed during supply shortages.
And so a lot of these, there
Adam Curry: it is. I just lied.
I have to laugh about it. Isn't
that unbelievable? Does she go
that NPR allows this blatant
lying? That's
John C Dvorak: a blatant lie.
This is why people should not
send their money to NPR or PBS
and send it to us
Unknown: off brand versions that
are made by compounding
pharmacies, which is allowed
during supply shortages. And so
a lot of these medical spas are
actually making a ton of money
selling these compounded
versions to people, because so
many people are having
John C Dvorak: Stop it again.
Who's making the ton of money?
Well, not the people selling it
for 1200 bucks, or some guy
pushing it out for $200 or 20
bucks. Yeah, I know. Well, this
is the ton of money is being
made by the people who had the
brand names. That's the ton of
money. And I'm gonna
Adam Curry: have to question,
how much did Novo Nordisk
sponsor NPR consider this, uh
huh, actually
Unknown: making a ton of money
selling these compounded
versions to people, because so
many people are having
difficulty accessing the drugs.
You know, with branded
pharmaceutical drugs, companies
have to go through rigorous
approval processes, which
requires, you know, years long
studies, in many cases, and very
large studies to prove the
effectiveness of their
medications to, you know, prove
quality and safety and. All of
these things, and when it comes
to compounded drugs, they really
weren't meant to be made at this
scale. And so there aren't these
studies scale back up how
effective they are, and you're
really going by word of mouth a
lot of times, or just companies
that the drugs do what they're
supposed to do.
Adam Curry: So here we have a
poor region, unbelievable.
Report, yeah, so here we have a
poor region of America who
cannot afford your $1,200 a
month. They've been completely
psyoped into believing this is
the future of my health is by
taking these medications
forever, there's a clear need in
the market. The pharmacists
like, well, we can make this.
This is, this is not patented.
The only thing that's patented
is your is your applicator, your
syringe. So
John C Dvorak: name is
copyrighted, and of course, in
Adam Curry: the brand name, and
we're setting it, we're
fulfilling a need for the
community, community. But then
this lady comes on NPR to tell
Oh no, this is not good. They
can only make it under these
circumstances, and you really
don't know if it's any good.
This is outrageous that this is
on NPR. You want to hear the
last clip of this liar?
John C Dvorak: I'm already sick
to my stomach with this pathetic
report that that considers
journalism, and I have to listen
to the end
Unknown: you write quote, We are
all living in an ozempic town,
or will be soon. Is that a good
thing after spending time in
Bowling Green? What do you
think?
I mean, everyone that we spoke
to is a lot happier and a lot
healthier, and they feel like
better versions of themselves.
That's not to say that these
drugs are a cure all. I mean, we
did talk to people who had
really bad side effects from
them. They're not the right fit
for everyone. Notice
Adam Curry: now she's saying, Oh
yeah, the side effects probably
because she using the off brand
version, there
Unknown: are some issues. Well,
hold
John C Dvorak: on, she's
implying that. She's
Adam Curry: implying it. Yes,
she's implying because
John C Dvorak: the side effects
are notorious with ozempic and
the rest of these things, yes,
especially with people that
don't have diabetes or don't
really need these drugs. And so
by just as a guilt by
association report this point,
yep, which is a chickenshit way
to report that's
Unknown: not to say that these
drugs are a cure all. I mean, we
did talk to people who had
really bad side effects from
them. They're not the right fit
for everyone. There are some
issues that the drug
manufacturers need to figure
out, that insurance companies
need to figure out. And you
know, going on and off of a drug
is not great for your health
either. And another problem with
that continuity is insurance
access. And insurance providers
covering this, employers
covering it. It's important for
there to be equal access to
these medications. And in
Bowling Green, we did go to a
pharmacy that said ozempic and
other weight loss drugs are not
a big thing at this specific
pharmacy in this specific area
of Bowling Green, because it did
tend to be a bit more low
income. So we're already sort of
seeing these health disparities
in terms of access emerge in
Bowling Green, and that's an
important consideration when
you're thinking about the
country as a whole, and who
needs these drugs and who's able
to access them?
Adam Curry: Yeah, I find it
despicable. It's just despicable
and and I really think that the
politician, Trump or Harris or
otherwise, who says I'm going to
make sure that you get the
cheapest GLP one drugs, I'm
going to take it down to $35
that would be that's your game
changer, right there. Nobody
cares about the insulin. I mean,
okay, please. Well, you
John C Dvorak: have your type
one diabetic. You
Adam Curry: do stop sending me
emails. I can already hear
you're firing up. Of course,
people care, by the way, I think
it was Trump who actually did in
the negotiation with the I think
so too.
John C Dvorak: He's trying to
tell you, it's like, you know
the no tips on, yeah, exactly
No. Taxes on tips has also been
stolen. They're just gonna steal
inside, which is, you know,
Adam Curry: I would be the same
thing. So I'll stay with that
for a moment to clips on the
mpox, which seems that something
else was at play here. And
there's even some walk back from
the WHO, the World Health
Organization. What was the
reason? The Who? What was the
the who, who's on first, who's
who's taking the money? Why was
there a emergency? What was of
international concern, whatever
the phrase is, well, of all
people, Dr Robert Malone
explains exactly why there was
this, all this sudden, oh, oh,
monkey pox and pox. Oh, why?
Well, here's the answer,
John C Dvorak: or psychological
bioterrorism or information
warfare. And in particular,
right now you want to focus on
the monkeypox. Story. So what's
fascinating is it was just
disclosed a few minutes ago by
the World Health Organization
that the prior monkey box
emergency declaration was set to
to expire tomorrow. Now when
they make these emergency
declarations, it gives them
power and money, and so no
surprise that they have
contrived to come out with yet
another monkey pox emergency
declaration two days before,
literally, before the last one
expired. So this is a lot like
the gamesmanship that's been
done by the Biden administration
regarding the declaration of
emergency for covid.
Adam Curry: Well, there you go.
So it was about to expire. So
John C Dvorak: it was a scam to
from the total scam.
Adam Curry: It was all about the
vaccines for Africa and
complete. Because then, you
know, when you have this, you
can create all kinds of vaccines
that can be pushed through
faster, etc, complete scam. And
even the who, the who, the who
comes out and says, Oh, hold on.
Hold up. No, no, this is not the
next covid. The
Unknown: World Health
Organization, which has declared
the spread of the new strain a
public health emergency of
international concern on
Tuesday, projected comparisons
with covid. 19
Mbox is not the new covid,
regardless of whether it's mpox
played one, behind the ongoing
outbreak in East Central Africa,
or mpox played two, and behind
the 2022 outbreak that initially
impacted Europe and has
continued to circulate in Europe
since. But the risk to the
general population is low. We
know what to do, and we need
this time, the political
commitment to go for
elimination, otherwise we'll
always see neglect and then
panic again. So let's have a
political commitment to go the
last mile, and especially stand
in solidarity with the African
region. We can and must tackle
impacts together across the
regions and continents. So
Adam Curry: it's all about
money, and I'm sure Bill Gates
pronounce I'm sure Bill Gates
has some kind of investment in
the mpox vaccine manufacturing.
So, wow, thanks, everybody,
everybody, even we were like,
Okay, here we go. This is it?
Oh, no. Oh, life is a scam. They
did they did it again. They did
it again to us, yeah, yeah,
yeah. I want
John C Dvorak: to play well
before we could go off too far
off the rails. I want to give us
a you know, do you case got all
these issues? It's got issues.
Adam Curry: I've heard there's
issues, yes,
John C Dvorak: and it's
terrible. So I ran into this
really good clip. It's
Unknown: terrible, it's
terrible. It's terrible. This
clip
John C Dvorak: from one of the
she's like a group of she's out
of the out of the Farage camp,
and she's a presenter named Alex
Phillips. She's been, I think
your latest thing, she's on talk
TV or something. She keeps
floating around. They can't,
can't keep a job. But she, this
is a she has this nice
presentation on recent UK
stabbings that I think is good
to listen to. This
Unknown: is in the last 24
hours. Really last 24 hours, all
of these headlines. Okay, so
it's stabbing in a supermarket
in Hackney. That's a fresh one
that happened today a restaurant
stabbing in forest gate. A man
is a critically ill in hospital.
After that a really bad stabbing
in Gorton near Manchester, where
a lovely woman was killed and a
Christian preacher, husband and
her daughter were both stabbed.
There's been a stabbing in
Truro, yeah, little old Truro,
an acid attacker has stuck in a
place called teepee Valley in
Wales, place I actually know
quite well, believe it or not,
in Peterborough, there's been a
cripple stabbing. Torquay Castle
circus, there was a stabbing
there. That was a woman being
jailed for that stabbing.
Thankfully, they've found a spot
for her to go in amongst the
protesters. Of course, there was
a horrible story of girls being
sexually assaulted on the beach
in Bournemouth. I remember the
good old days when you could go
to the beach without being
raped. And Dorset Police put out
a big statement to all the
newspapers and on social media,
saying, if you've been a
witness, if you've seen these
men approach these girls and
sexually assault them, please
come forward. And I'm like,
okay, so what do they look like?
Oh, okay, we're not going to
find out that's very helpful.
There's been asylum seeker who
stabbed his immigration lawyer.
And to wrap it all up, a man
murdered a woman and had sex
with the corpse. Oh, man. So
there you go, ladies and
gentlemen, just because, well,
we're emptying all the prisons.
Because it seems the stabbers
are on the loose. What is going
on?
Adam Curry: Wow, that. Well, no,
you know what this I'm, I'm
gonna give you borderline for
that that was, and mainly
because when we when the
stabbing started, and they
remember the zombie knives. They
had the zombie knives. I even
got a zombie knife. Was so cool.
And then we get producers
emailing us. That's not true.
It's not like your guns in
America, your guns, Kid
everybody, because it's not that
bad. Knives is a problem in
Britain.
John C Dvorak: My favorite one
in that series of clips. This is
at the beginning, beginning of
the month where this report, I
think the eighth of August was
when this report came out, when
she did this. I guess it's
daily. There's all these
stabbings. But the my favorite
one was the the immigrant who
stabbed his immigration
attorney.
Adam Curry: You know what? You
know what stops knife, crime,
guns, guns,
John C Dvorak: yeah, well, it's
interesting at the Indiana Jones
proved that,
Adam Curry: although, man, if
you got a crazy person with a
knife, you got to get your gun
out real fast, because they can
hurt you before you can hurt
them. So she mentioned that
they're letting people of out of
the prisons. Well, yes, there
is, you know, they have to lock
up all these people who say
horrible things on Facebook and
on x, and we need to put them in
jail. And here's how the system
works. We
Unknown: will guarantee a prison
cell. We will make sure that
those people who need to be in
prison will be in prison, not
necessarily in the area where
they live. They may be two, 300
miles away from home, but we
will guarantee people a prison
cell with
the numbers are so tight there.
How can you make that guarantee
they are tight? And that's why
we've initiated operation early
dawn. So basically, the easiest
way to describe it is one in,
one out. So as people get
released, we can then pick up
people from police cells and
take them to court, and we will
triage that three times a day.
Adam Curry: There you go. So you
just let somebody out. The cells
are full, so let someone else
out who can go get a knife, I
guess.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, they've got
something wrong there. Well,
their priorities are screwed.
Adam Curry: We need to be pay
very close attention to what's
going on there, because this is
the kind of government that does
weird stuff.
John C Dvorak: I did it. You
said it. I heard that. I
Adam Curry: did it. This is a
problem. You're
John C Dvorak: at your your one
up on me for two to one.
Adam Curry: I'm very sorry. This
is the kind of stuff that I
think you know could happen
here. If you have the wrong
government,
Unknown: they can do stupid
stuff. This is dumb. It's dumb
Adam Curry: anyway. Let's slot A
shout out to our producer who
came in today, and we'll check
out what's happening in with the
Ukraine versus Russia
conflagration, and it's heating
up a bit with the drones over
Moscow
Unknown: now, Russian
authorities say air defense
systems shot down several
Ukrainian drones that targeted
Moscow overnight. Russia's
Defense Ministry said it
destroyed a total of 45 drones
over Russian territory,
including 11 over the Capital
Region. Moscow's mayor said the
city faced one of the biggest
drone attacks Ukraine has
launched against the capital so
far. And
Adam Curry: then listen to what
Zelensky says. Ukrainian
President
Unknown: Vladimir Zelinsky said
on Monday, the offensive showed
Moscow's threats of retaliation
against Western allies supplying
Kyiv were a bluff, Addressing
diplomats and other officials in
the Ukrainian capital. He added
that his country needs to be
able to use more Western
weaponry. The world knows
everything in this war depends
on courage, our courage and that
of our partners, it depends on
brave decisions, support and
steps for Ukraine, not just
ours. It's vital our partners
are in sync with us in this
determination, and then Russia
will be left with no option but
peace.
Adam Curry: Okay, so he's
saying, Oh, they were just
bluffing about about, you know,
conquering us and then going
into Europe. Who says that the I
find this,
John C Dvorak: I find that the
information is so poor, yeah,
well, there's that from every
direction that is, like, I don't
know if you can, yeah, whatever
happens, happens.
Adam Curry: And then there's
this ominous report.
Unknown: Well, meanwhile, the
Ukrainian parliament has voted
to ban the Russian linked
Ukrainian Orthodox Church. Kyiv
considers the church to be
aligned with Moscow, and the
bill was welcomed by President
Volodymyr Zelensky office.
Today, the church officially
broke ties with its Russian
counterpart in 2022 but some
Ukrainian lawmakers have accused
it of collaborating with Russian
clergymen despite the invasion.
Round
Adam Curry: them up. Yep, round
them up. You watch.
John C Dvorak: They got rid of
the Russian Orthodox Church, and
now they're getting rid of the
Ukrainian Orthodox Church. Yeah,
Adam Curry: what's the
elections? There's
John C Dvorak: no elections
anymore, and they've not shut
down the media completely.
Adam Curry: Yeah, he's, he's not
even president anymore,
Unknown: officially, did he? No,
he's
John C Dvorak: not officially.
He's emperor.
Adam Curry: But Trump, yes, you
have anything on Russia and
Ukraine? You got anything? No, I
John C Dvorak: didn't get
anything for this show.
Adam Curry: Oh, and then I have
the latest from Israel. Of
course, it would be great to
have an October surprise for the
Harris campaign, doesn't I do
want
John C Dvorak: to play, before
you play that, I do want to play
this prelude to that, what
you're going to play Prelude,
which is Judy Woodruff, who she
had to walk this back,
Adam Curry: yeah. Oh, I'm glad
you got a clip of this. She she
John C Dvorak: came out with
this commentary, and she has,
she's had to walk it back. I
think everybody's all freaked
out about because there's no
evidence, no evidence
whatsoever. What she's saying is
true. Ken
Unknown: is over there right
now, working with Netanyahu. The
reporting is that former
President Trump is on the phone
with the Prime Minister of
Israel, urging him not to cut a
deal right now, because that is
believed that would help the
Harris campaign. So I don't know
where, where that I don't know
who knows whether that will come
about or not, but I have to
think that the Harris campaign
would like for President Biden
to do what President to do,
which is work on that one. Yeah.
Adam Curry: Okay, so she said
this without evidence, big
brouhaha in newsland. I think
she's right. To be honest about
it. I've said this from day one,
when BB went to visit Trump.
It's like, Hey,
John C Dvorak: I think that may
have happened then, but she said
he's on she he's on the phone
right now, because things have
changed. Okay, I think which is
bogus, and I think that maybe he
did discuss this with Netanyahu,
yeah. But I think all when they
were at Mar a Lago, but there, I
think all these discussions of
the, you know, the meeting and
Qatar, where there's no Hamas
representative, and all the rest
of it, I think they're, they're
they're inflating this whole
ceasefire thing, that this non
existent, and now they're going
to blame Trump, just the way
they blamed him for the non
passage of the bogus immigration
bill.
Adam Curry: Yeah, yeah, that's a
good point. So she's an
operative. No, she got, didn't
she get? She got replaced?
Didn't
John C Dvorak: she by she's
always been an operative.
Adam Curry: Well, here's the
latest from Blinken
Unknown: on his ninth trip to
the region us, Secretary of
State Anthony Blinken met with
Israeli leaders once again ahead
of talks in Cairo this week.
This is a decisive moment,
probably best, maybe the last
opportunity to get the hostages
home to get a ceasefire and to
put everyone on a better path to
enduring peace and security.
Washington says new proposals
will bridge the gaps between the
two sides and help avert a wider
war.
What's most crucial now is that
everyone everyone refrained from
taking any actions that could
fuel further conflict, escalate
tensions and result in the
spreading of violence and
conflict.
But over the weekend, Hamas
accused Israel of setting up new
demands, and although Tehran
says it doesn't intend to stop
peace talks. It will seek
retribution for the killings of
a top Hamas leader and Iranian
commander last month. Although
months of previous talks have
failed to reach a deal for
Washington, there's an added
urgency to end the Gaza war as
an issue that could sway voters
in key states in the upcoming US
election. The White House sees
this as an inflection point that
must be resolved before Joe
Biden hands over the reins to a
new president. Well,
Adam Curry: he's already handed
over the reins. He's
John C Dvorak: now they but they
keep leaving out of these
reports if they're going to
blame Trump for one thing or
another. Is Trump's commentary,
which is been suppressed, where
he says there's the reason that
the Hamas is not interested in
any hostage hostage exchange in
regards to a ceasefire is
because they're all dead. Yeah,
Unknown: Israeli forces have
recovered the bodies of six
hostages. The country's military
said today the victims were
brought back during an overnight
operation in. Gaza Hamas
captured them during its attack
on Israel in October. Four of
the deceased hostages had family
members who were also abducted
but later freed. Hamas is still
believed to be holding around
110 hostages Israel estimates
nearly 40 of them are dead.
Adam Curry: All right, so let's,
let's game play this for a
second. First of all, if any
hostages are released, it will
be 33 I mean, that's just a
given. I can tell you right now
how, let's just say it's all
it's gameplay. How does it has
to be Harris or Trump, who I
think has to go talk to someone
in Iran to make the October
surprise work.
John C Dvorak: I don't know I
Harris can't do it. She's not a
person that can go do anything.
Well, the
Adam Curry: thinking, of course,
is that Trump has set this up. I
mean,
John C Dvorak: well, that's what
you would think, because it's
the it's because they're basing
all this on Reagan back in 1979
1980 Yes, and that is, really,
was the intelligence community
and other people that, you know,
the State Department. That was a
scheme that Reagan had little to
do with. I I think because he's
what didn't have that much
power. He couldn't make these
things happen like that. I think
Trump's in the same boat, yeah,
the CIA's got, got the handle on
this, and they're the ones doing
Adam Curry: the negotiating.
They're in there. They're the
their guide, yeah, what's his
John C Dvorak: name? And the
head of this? Not now, he's just
the CA, but the head guy,
William Burns, yeah, the main
dude is out there floating
around like Brennan was during
the Maidan situation in Ukraine.
Remember he was actually there?
Yeah, so, so I'm not blaming
Trump for any of this. I'm not
blaming him. I'm saying that.
No, I didn't say you were but
they were blaming him in these,
in these, like the Woodruff
report and others are blaming
him. No,
Adam Curry: I understand that,
but that just ran. But remember,
it's just a big show. So, you
know, I still think they all
want Trump to win. I really do.
John C Dvorak: And, well,
there's a lot of evidence that
would say you're right.
Adam Curry: Who was, who was
talking was, it was Debbie
Dingell, who's Debbie. Debbie
Dingell,
John C Dvorak: she was a, she's
a congressman or a senator from
New York. I think she's a
congresswoman from New York. Oh,
well, she I'll look around. She
was
Adam Curry: on meet the press,
and I guess she knows that Biden
is dead or incapacitated.
Something
Unknown: wonderfully magical is
in the air, isn't it? Yeah,
we're thinking it here in this
arena, but it's spreading all
across this country. We
love the spirit of Joe, a
familiar feeling that's been
buried too deep for far too
long. You know what I'm talking
about, Michigan. Michigan, it's
the contagious power of hope.
Hope, all right,
brick, come on. In Kristen,
it's fascinating, because it's
almost as if she and former
President Obama were trying to
impose the Hope and Change
message a little bit to give it,
if you will, to Vice President
Kamala Harris. Did you see it
that way? And also notable,
obviously she didn't mention
President Biden.
John C Dvorak: I think I love
President Biden, and we all need
to. He was a great president,
but now we are looking to the
future and go back.
Adam Curry: He was a great
president. Is he no longer
president?
John C Dvorak: That's a good
catch.
Adam Curry: He was a great
president.
John C Dvorak: Right now he's in
Napa Valley drinking wine with
his wife in 747, which I assume,
landed at Travis Air Force.
Somebody didn't land in San
Francisco, somebody,
Adam Curry: Daddy Long Legs
somebody. Mm, hmm. But
John C Dvorak: do you remember
that they were, they showed this
on a lot of the Fox shows, and
they were just mocking, uh,
mocking Biden, uh, for being a
doofus. But it was like he was,
this is, I think, after the
convention, when they jumped on
the plane to get out of town,
even though they went on the low
ramp, not the big one, into the
cold, basically, now they get
him, I guess they put him in the
elevator. There's an elevator in
47 just dropped me, and they put
him in there, and up you go, up
at level. Yeah. So, so, so
Jill's gonna go on the plane,
and instead of following Joe,
she comes up and Joe is standing
there, yeah, and she doesn't
acknowledge him or anything. She
just starts going up. There's
no, it's not even Joe. No, it
isn't Hello. That's what I'm
having to conclude. And but
everyone was mocking, mocking
it, at least Fox would do it.
The font about their their take.
Was the following, oh, look,
she's so mad because she's not
going to be the first lady
anymore and won't get the free
jet rise, and she's mad at Joe.
But I'm thinking maybe it wasn't
Joe at all. Joe may be holed up
in Washington for all we listen
Adam Curry: the the key, the
clue was the grandkid. Why do
you want me to hold his hand?
That's not grandpa. Who's that
dude?
John C Dvorak: I didn't catch
that, but if that happened, that
that's a pretty big giveaway.
Adam Curry: Let's talk about a
food for a moment. It's about to
get even better. No more fresh
chicken for you.
Unknown: Or job losses in the
meat processing industry. Tyson
Foods announcing job cuts at its
chicken processing complex in
Wilkesboro, North Carolina. In a
statement to Ag Day, a Tyson
food spokesperson says, due to
increasing demand, it is
shifting production from the
facility to support its fully
cooked products. It says, As a
result, fewer positions will be
required at that facility.
However, it did not say how many
positions would be cut the
Wilkes journal, Patriot
newspaper, reporting over the
weekend, one local official told
them nearly 500 jobs would be
impacted. The changes
specifically involve converting
the fresh plant in Wilkesboro
into a bulk processing facility.
That means chicken will be
processed to a stage where it is
ready to be sent to other Tyson
facilities for further
processing and packaging. Now,
Tyson says its priority is to
assist affected employees by
offering them other
opportunities within the
company,
Adam Curry: so more fully cooked
chicken is what they get. Wait
John C Dvorak: a minute, how is
that cut jobs? It seems to me,
you process the chicken, then
you go through the trouble of
cooking it. That would add jobs.
It seems to me, that's an extra
step. What
Adam Curry: do you mean? They
just, what
John C Dvorak: am I? What am I
missing here? They
Adam Curry: just so they Pro,
they cut the chicken, dump it
into seed oil, cook it, and then
package it. You don't need half
the people who were doing all
the why? Why
John C Dvorak: would you not
need half the people? Because
Adam Curry: it's just automatic.
I subscribe to food machine
magazine. You should see that
thing, the stuff that these
machines that they have for
packaging food is disgusting and
create, I will
John C Dvorak: say this so I'm
in Holland. Here we go. Oh, neck
of the woods. This is when you
almost got killed. No, no. This
is when I was floating around
with Yana Elman touring the
whole country, basically. And
Unknown: that took three min,
three minutes. It was,
John C Dvorak: it was about four
days, oh, with all, like, the
best restaurants, and we did. It
was a good tour. But one of the
things he mentioned, because
there's his truck goes by the
chicken truck, and he says that
because we don't his comment was
the following, because we don't
have Mexican labor or cheap
labor to process the chickens
like they do in Tyson and
elsewhere that the Dutch have
men have developed a
manufacturing system All
machines that can process
chickens like nobody else and
and it's like a thriving
industry with no people working
there. I think that may be at
play here.
Adam Curry: Yeah, you're
probably in Barneveld. Were you
in barneville? Does that sound
familiar? Probably because
that's whatever the
John C Dvorak: case was allotted
from chicken, chicken, giant
chickens, shruts would fill with
chickens. And so, yes, he said
the chicken processing there was
all automated. We
Adam Curry: got breaking news,
breaking from AP. So you know
it's the truth that I've been
waiting for. This one been
waiting almost 17 years. Us.
Government report says fluoride
at twice the recommended limit
is linked to lower IQ in kids.
Yep, there you go. Told you,
John C Dvorak: and that's why
that the ticket Tip of the Day
from a few weeks back when I had
the water filter. That
particular filter takes fluoride
out of the water. What was that
filter? Again, it was the total
filters, I think something like
that. Oh, that would have to put
a little web page together, or a
small booklet of the tips. Once
we get to a couple,
Adam Curry: yes, a giblet, a
giblet. Hey, we can run it
through the publishing company.
Yeah, we're gonna need to. Yeah,
I only have one more clip. If I
don't know if you have anything
you want to do, you want to
mention you don't want to play
before we go. I got one ice, a
funny one. It's a funny I got a
funny short one. So I'll wait
for you.
John C Dvorak: No, I'm good. I
think I can push these off
because they're kind of
evergreen.
Adam Curry: This is Neil
deGrasse Tyson,
John C Dvorak: who now, always a
winner,
Adam Curry: always a winner.
And, you know, some would say
he's a man of science. I would
say, I mean, he's a astrologist,
but he's a man of science.
John C Dvorak: He's an
astronomer, not an astrologist.
Adam Curry: That was funny. I.
Was funnier than I meant it to
be. Well, maybe he is an
astrologist. Tell me what's
going to happen is, is mercury
and retro Gary? No, but he
weighs in on, you know, we've
had a lot of controversy,
controversy over men and women's
sports, and even the the is it
Algerian, I want to say,
Algerian boxer who
John C Dvorak: beat all the
women up, yeah.
Adam Curry: And, you know, says
that, you know, they, they did a
test and XY chromos, XY
chromosome, yeah. So Neil
deGrasse Tyson sets us straight,
sets the record straight. That
has nothing to do with being a
man or a woman. The xx
Unknown: XY chromosomes are
insufficient because when we
wake up in the morning, we
exaggerate whatever feature we
want to portray the gender of
our choice. Suppose, no matter
my chromosomes, today, I feel
80% female, 20% male. I'm gonna,
I'm gonna put on makeup. I'm
gonna do that tomorrow, I might
feel 80% male. I'll remove the
makeup and I'll wear a muscle
shirt.
Adam Curry: What kind of dirt do
they have on this guy?
John C Dvorak: What is the deal
with that? I mean, I heard that
clip, and I was, I was gonna
actually clip that, but I had to
find a a short version of the
song, I feel pretty which I was
going to put at the end of the
clip. Feel pretty
Adam Curry: nice if it's from
West Side Story.
John C Dvorak: I think so. So.
So the I heard that clip, and I
thought this guy was clinically
insane to say this, because I
don't wake up in the morning and
think, Oh, I think I'm gonna put
on some makeup because I feel
pretty. What do you ever wake up
in the morning and say, oh, I
need some mascara. I mean, a
guy, no, nobody does this.
Unknown: I'm gonna show my salon
by donating to no agenda.
Imagine all the people who could
do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fun.
Adam Curry: A reminder, we have
not one but two tips of the day
coming up because I have a tip.
The tip of the day has become
quite the feature on the show.
People are listening to the
entire program, and of course,
after that, we have our end of

tip of the day, not one, but
two. And
Unknown: sometimes I
Adam Curry: don't, all right, do
you want to go first? Sure what
you
John C Dvorak: got? So I've got
a device, and people, normally,
you can get these things for
pressure washers. If you have a
pressure washer, you buy these,
these foaming devices. You put
them on the end of the pressure
washer, and it's got a big
container below, and it shoots
foam on your car and cleans your
car. But there is a low pressure
version that goes with a regular
garden hose. Oh, okay. And from
a company called foam King.
Adam Curry: Foam King,
John C Dvorak: yes, foam King,
and you can get it, I think it's
foam King dot shop. Oh, foam
King dot shop. And it's probably
available on Amazon. And foam
King has a dude. Their one
device is the king of suds. They
call it. It's a, it's a, it's a
nozzle that also King suds. The
nozzles hooks right to the to
this device has got the foamer
on it and the bottle of juice,
and it works like a champ.
Yesterday, we're testing it out
that Jay and I both was actually
Wednesday, Yeah, yesterday we're
washed our cars with it works
like a champ. It's called the
foam King. Foam King, dot shop,
wow. And get the king of suds.
It's really a nice product, the
king. And then you just unhook.
It's got a little one of these
kind of a click on hook
connections, you unclick it, and
you got a regular nozzle, and
you can just wash off the foam
and or, you know, if you need to
rub it down, you can do that
too. Okay,
Adam Curry: well, I'm always in
need of a high pressure stuff
here. Well, you
John C Dvorak: can also buy a
pressure washer with one of

Adam Curry: So we received an
Amazon package yesterday, and I
think there may be one in your
PO box as well, and we couldn't
figure it out. And we're looking
at this by like, who ordered
this? And it's a box of row is
in German, oh, let me get it.
It's a, it's a box of
Rollerblade in French, roulette,
roulette, pour chez de bere. And
we couldn't figure what is this.
And then all of a sudden, I
remembered a note from the Baron
of Old Bay. He says, I'm sending
a product tip to you via Amazon.
Try it out if you think it's a
tip worth spreading the word. I
don't own this company. I'm just
happy a happy customer to
improve my work from home life.
So this is a it has five roller
blade wheels in it, but you
don't attach them to your roller
blades. You you replace your
office chair wheels with these.
And it's, it's fantastic
because, you know, roller blade
wheels, that's a whole different
level of wheel compared to what
you the crappy things you get on
your on your wheels? Yes, yes.
He says they're like 10 or 20
bucks on Amazon. I have to say,
I was blown away by this tip of
the day. Thank you very much.
The Baron of Old Ben world's

Just now they might have been

It's a good thing. That's
how I talk. Really,
when Donald Trump comes down to
Texas, stands next to officers
in uniforms just like mine. He's
not there to help us. He is a
self serving
man. When he killed the border
bill, he just made our job
harder. The Kamala, on the other
hand, has been fighting border
crime for
years. She's
gone down to Mexico and worked
to stop the traffickers, and
when the trafficker day stopped,
she put him in jail. Down in my
neck of the woods, we called in
fooling around and finding out
on
january 20, 2021 with the
inauguration, of Joe Biden and
Kamala Harris, we established
one of the most successful
presidencies of modern times.
The other day, her opponent
implied that
it did speedy morning, people
voted
one more time. Now, moving
around and finding out
almost croak first debate
of this election season. Ladies
and gentlemen, it is time to
revelize you.

ears like the wall me, but
I'm okay to see how you doin
duck your horn. Me
with your best
shot. Hit me with your best
shot. Come
on. Don't fight there. Okay. I
got my fist in the air.
Secret Service is breastfeeding,
but I'm gonna be the president.

shine. Fired. Get out of here.
