Adam curry, John C Dvorak, Sunday,
0:05
Adam Curry: October 20, 2024 this your award winning Kimber
0:07
nation. Media assassination. Episode 1705,
0:11
Unknown: this is no
0:12
agenda. Dialing 8675309,
0:17
Adam Curry: and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas
0:19
hill country here in FEMA Region, number six in the
0:22
morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry
0:24
John C Dvorak: and from Northern Silicon Valley, where we realize
0:26
now that Lizzo can fly commercial. I'm John C Dvorak
0:32
Unknown: buzzkill in the morning,
0:35
Adam Curry: she can fly commercial. Yeah, she's lost a
0:38
lot of weight. You know, it's funny you say that because, of
0:41
course, we, I think you have the clip we all saw her shilling for
0:46
Kamala in Detroit, and, and, and I'm like, laughing at what she's
0:50
saying. And Tina's saying, Is she thin? Is she thin? Is she on
0:54
the O? I guess that that word has been out there, that she's,
0:58
she's on the O,
0:59
John C Dvorak: the big O on the O. Is that what they're saying?
1:01
Yeah, on the O. She's, I mean, I mean, the term is on the O,
1:05
Adam Curry: I think we made that up
1:08
John C Dvorak: pretty good. Yeah, you
1:10
Adam Curry: got the O face. You're on the O, you got the O,
1:13
but yeah, you're on the O. She's on the issue. We play this clip
1:16
because it's not we referred to it. This
1:18
John C Dvorak: is, yes, this Lizzo and the one of the rallies
1:22
that she was invited to to shield for Kamala. So she didn't
1:26
get people to the rally to watch her perform. It's a good bit
1:30
that she's doing there. And she says this, I'm so proud
1:34
Unknown: to be from this city. You know, they say if Kamala
1:38
wins, then the whole country will be like Detroit, proud,
1:45
like Detroit resilient, like Detroit, yeah,
1:48
Adam Curry: no, you can't take it back. You know, you can't
1:50
jump in with like, Oops. I misread the prompter. I mean,
1:55
proud, like Detroit, yeah, that's great.
1:59
John C Dvorak: I noticed that you could just see that she was
2:02
thinking to herself, oh, that's not Oh no. What am I gonna do
2:06
here? I'm gonna save this. And
2:08
Adam Curry: the sad thing is, you know, Detroit. I mean, I've
2:10
been to Detroit, I've been to the moda city. It has been
2:15
through some tough times, you know. So no disrespect to
2:19
Detroit, but that's not exactly what you want in your
2:25
presidential campaign. Detroit
2:27
John C Dvorak: has become a shadow of itself its former self
2:32
ever
2:32
Adam Curry: since Natalie and Clayton, you know, started
2:35
selling homes there, hey, oh, hey, oh, sorry, don't Google
2:42
that, you know. So this is, this is a pretty old trick to bring
2:50
in. You know, music superstars have them perform, and Kamala
2:55
has really taken it to the max. In this case, what I find
3:00
interesting is, well, actually, I think it's very risky. Do you
3:05
know all of the star power she's been bringing out?
3:10
John C Dvorak: Well, there's been a lot of it, but one of the
3:12
riskiest one, I think, is Usher Yes,
3:15
Unknown: pop superstar Lizzo today in her hometown of
3:18
Detroit, revving up the crowd.
3:21
I'm proud to say that I voted, I voted early and I voted for
3:24
Kamala Harris, the
3:27
Grammy winner, lending her celebrity to Vice President
3:29
Kamala Harris. As early voting began today in Detroit,
3:33
we're going to go vote today. We're going to remind people to
3:36
vote. We're going to register folks to vote.
3:41
Rally goers headed straight from the event to the polls early and
3:45
get it done. Harris going after former President Donald Trump's
3:49
fitness for office. He's
3:50
becoming increasingly unstable and unhinged
3:54
two battleground states today, heading from Michigan to Georgia
3:58
for a rally in Atlanta alongside another celebrity, R and B and
4:02
pop star Usher, the Harris campaign leaning into star power
4:07
to shine a light on the vice president. You
4:09
Adam Curry: know, Usher deleted all of his tweets once the Diddy
4:12
stuff came out.
4:14
John C Dvorak: Yes, he's got his tit in a ring or
4:17
Adam Curry: whatever. Yeah, that, that's that. I think
4:20
that's rather, really dangerous. I
4:24
John C Dvorak: just before we think that camel is aware of any
4:26
of the nitty stuff. Just
4:28
Adam Curry: before we started the show, all the timelines were
4:31
filled with Trump scooping fries at McDonald's. So we can say
4:38
that he worked at McDonald's longer than vice president
4:41
Harris. I think that's pretty funny. That's pretty funny. The
4:45
now for people who went to church this morning in America,
4:48
I'm sure that this came up in the conversation, and I have the
4:54
two clips, one which now that I'm listening to both sounds.
5:00
Sweetened with crowd noise versus the recording in the
5:04
crowd. So this is after vice president Harris is talking
5:08
about Trump hand selecting, hand picking, three Supreme Court
5:14
judges. Have we all forgotten that they have to go through
5:17
confirmation and that Senate actually approves them? Yeah,
5:21
John C Dvorak: no, he hands picks him. He's just as you
5:24
Yeah,
5:25
Adam Curry: the same way. He killed the bill. He killed the
5:27
border bill. He just killed it. He
5:29
John C Dvorak: killed even in Congress. But he managed to kill
5:31
the bill. He
5:31
Adam Curry: just called everybody and said, kill it. I'm
5:33
in charge. I'm Trump man. So she was just finished talking about
5:39
the right to to have an abortion, and
5:42
Unknown: they did as he intended. Oh, you guys are at
5:48
the wrong rally.
5:52
Adam Curry: So what apparently was shouted was, Christ is King,
5:56
Jesus is Lord. Here is the audience version. Audience,
6:00
Unknown: so
6:11
Adam Curry: I don't know, I don't know if she actually heard
6:13
what was said or not, but this is, this is, of course, being
6:17
used now to get the Christians out to vote.
6:20
John C Dvorak: Good luck.
6:23
Adam Curry: Oh no. They're really trying. They're really
6:26
trying. They
6:27
John C Dvorak: can try, yeah,
6:29
Adam Curry: but the Hill had, the had kind of a semi, like a
6:34
October surprise. Let so it's kind of like a giblet. It's not
6:38
really a surprise. But I thought this was pretty interesting.
6:42
Oopsie. It
6:42
Unknown: appears that Vice President Kamala Harris
6:44
plagiarized
6:46
John C Dvorak: Oopsie. Did he say Oopsie? Well, he's from the
6:49
start using that
6:50
Adam Curry: oopsie instead of Hello, let's use oops
6:54
Unknown: Oopsie. It appears that Vice President Kamala Harris
6:56
plagiarized parts of her 2009 criminal justice book. That's
7:00
according to new reporting from city journals Christopher Rufo.
7:04
Rufo reports that quote, Kamala Harris plagiarized at least a
7:07
dozen sections of her criminal justice book was titled smart on
7:10
crime. According to a new investigation, the current vice
7:13
president even lifted material from Wikipedia. Now Rufo team
7:17
found that multiple violations were comparable in severity to
7:21
the plagiarism found in former harbor President Claudine Gay's
7:24
doctoral thesis. CNN also reviewed several of the passages
7:28
highlighted by Rufo found that Harris and her co author failed
7:31
to properly attribute language to sources. As an example, Rufo
7:35
points out that in one section of the book, Harris without
7:38
proper attribution quote reproduced extensive sections
7:42
from a John Jay College of Criminal Justice press release.
7:45
She and her co author passed off the language as their own,
7:48
copying multiple paragraphs virtually verbatim as another
7:52
example in a section about a New York Court program. HARRIS quote
7:55
stole long passages directly from Wikipedia, which is long
7:59
considered an unreliable source by some. She not only assumes
8:03
that online encyclopedia is accuracy, but copies its
8:05
language nearly verbatim without citing the source that's from
8:09
Rufo. Oh
8:10
Adam Curry: no, a political book is full of crap. Oh no, Say it
8:14
ain't so well.
8:15
John C Dvorak: Rufo is a kind of a character because he goes
8:22
after plagiarism. Oh, he's only got, he does, that's his thing.
8:25
He's, yeah, it's his thing. And he got that Harvard woman blown
8:30
out of the water because of her plagiarism. But I have to
8:33
question the, the the validity of the any of this from a
8:38
writer's perspective. Now, I don't do this, because if I was
8:41
going to quote Wikipedia, I say, Wikipedia says, and then I have
8:45
the I'd have the thing you would have
8:47
Adam Curry: said, sources tell me, I'd never do that.
8:52
John C Dvorak: But the it's legitimate to take the press
8:57
releases are put out there for you to steal from. That's what
9:00
they're there for. Oh, sure, sure. But you sent the press
9:04
release your sport. Ideally, when you send a press release to
9:08
a writer, ideally, they'll just use it verbatim, yeah, that's
9:12
what you want. In fact, the
9:13
Adam Curry: press releases usually include, you know,
9:18
questions for you to ask. I've got, I see those all the time.
9:23
Sometimes
9:23
John C Dvorak: they will but generally speaking, a press
9:25
release would be a complete article written including
9:27
quotes, yeah, from people, from various people, yes, yes. And so
9:32
you can just use it. And so she and Wikipedia's public domain
9:36
for all practical purposes, and you can pretty much steal from
9:41
it, if you want to. So I don't think any of this is plagiarism,
9:44
to be honest about it, because when you take from a copyrighted
9:48
work, not not a public domain, where from a copyrighted work
9:52
that somebody else is, that somebody else did, and then you
9:55
make it your own. I'm I just, I think this is a very great.
10:00
Area, and I wouldn't have condemned I
10:03
Adam Curry: will throw one flag up. I just looked at the at the
10:09
Creative Commons license that Wikipedia uses, attribution,

10:35
So she is violated. Violated the Copyright, All right. And now
10:39
that I'm Yeah, you got me, and now that I'm speaking like an
10:41
Indian, the Brahman, Brahman, the Brahmins have spoken. We
10:48
received an email from Sir abs, dear Adam and John, as a Brahmin
10:51
Knight, I am officially denouncing Kamala Harris on
10:54
behalf of my community. Adam said in the last show that no
10:58
Brahmins have written into the show denouncing Kamala. So
11:01
you're going to assume Brahmins back Kamala just because of her
11:04
cast. I'm letting you know this is not the case. We want nothing
11:07
to do with her. She's a swamp creature, and we're just as fed
11:11
up as everyone else is with these types. Thanks, sir abs,
11:15
your Brahmin Knight.
11:16
John C Dvorak: I was very amused by that note. It's
11:19
Adam Curry: great. Well, we had to go back and say, Come on. We
11:21
need some explanation. He did. It came in two notes. We did
11:25
have to kind of coax it out of him. A little bit, a little bit
11:30
very, very entertained by the Chris Wallace show on CNN on
11:36
Saturday. I'm
11:37
John C Dvorak: glad you got clips of that. Oh,
11:39
Adam Curry: well, it's, you know, my favorite person is on
11:41
the show.
11:43
John C Dvorak: I Yes, you seem to have I'm now thinking you're
11:46
obsessed.
11:49
Adam Curry: I listen to the professor and Kara Swisher to
11:54
understand what the liberal media is thinking, because they
11:59
just put it out there as an example, they are completely
12:03
convinced that Trump just decided to start saying nothing
12:07
at one of his rallies for 16 minutes.
12:11
John C Dvorak: Oh, there's the one where the poor woman almost
12:13
died. No,
12:13
Adam Curry: no, no, no. That was the dance party which also
12:16
happened for no reason. He just happened. It was no reason so
12:19
they never mind
12:20
John C Dvorak: is when the microphone went out. Yes, the
12:22
whole the whole sound system, microphone went out. What's
12:25
Adam Curry: he supposed to do? Yeah, and they're like, Trump,
12:27
no, but this is a dementia. This is dementia. God,
12:30
John C Dvorak: what is wrong with these people dementia? I'm
12:33
Adam Curry: telling you. Well, what is wrong? This is why I
12:35
listen to it. It's very hard to watch MSNBC, by the way, no one
12:41
watches MSNBC, nobody watches CNN. There's some people who
12:46
watch Fox more than the others, but even that, a lot of those
12:49
shows no one watches. The only reason why the mainstream is
12:53
kept alive is carrier fees, which are carriage fees, which
12:57
are diminishing quickly as people cut the cord, and the
13:00
fact that people post clips of it,
13:03
John C Dvorak: if people there's more viewing of the clips than
13:07
there is of the shows, absolutely.
13:09
Adam Curry: So if people would stop posting clips, then no one
13:13
would know what they said. But oh no, no, we can't do that,
13:16
because we can't. I'm a reporter. I'm reporting on this.
13:21
This is not rare. Anyway, I'm gonna do I'm just as bad,
13:26
obviously, without the mainstream, we have no show. Or
13:30
we just be deconstructing licks Friedman. We
13:33
John C Dvorak: could be we, well, we could be deconstructing
13:36
pockets, or we can read stuff, reimprinted material, and
13:40
deconstruct that sounds
13:42
Adam Curry: like a lot of fun. We could get AI voices to read
13:45
them to a man that France 24 is using that AI voice all the
13:50
time. Now, complete packages are just read by that AI voice, oh,
13:54
that's no good. I don't think so. Either. It's not an
13:58
offensive voice. It will come up later. I don't remember which
14:01
clip it is. Anyway, I
14:02
John C Dvorak: have a couple AI clips for that. Here is,
14:04
Adam Curry: here's the Chris Wallace show, and they're
14:06
talking about Kamala Harris being, not being a communist.
14:10
She's not a communist. She's not a communist. Stop it. I have to
14:14
say,
14:14
Unknown: though, I am just so exhausted by the idea that she
14:19
Adam Curry: is Lulu. By the way, Lulu. Lulu Garcia, yes,
14:22
John C Dvorak: Lulu is who's no one's ever heard of it. She's
14:25
made a name for herself recently. She's a New York Times
14:27
reporter.
14:29
Adam Curry: I looked her up. I have to say I was more impressed
14:33
than you are letting on here. She let me see she was NPR
14:41
bureau chief in Mexico City, Baghdad and Jerusalem. Opened
14:46
the bureau.
14:46
John C Dvorak: Sounds suspicious. Spook, much? Open,
14:50
no. Spook. Open
14:52
Adam Curry: the bureau, no, it's Oopsie. Open the bureau in Rio
14:56
de Janeiro, her coverage of the Israeli Palestinians. Conflict
15:00
and dispatches of the Arab Spring uprisings brought her
15:04
name is gassar Garcia Navarro, multiple awards in 2012
15:09
including the Edward R Murrow award, Peabody awards, plural
15:14
for her coverage of the Libyan revolt. We came. We saw he died.
15:18
And most importantly, her series on the Amazon rainforest. One to
15:22
Peabody. Finalist, Hey, we should. We should. Finalist,
15:27
that's not winning.
15:28
John C Dvorak: That's not winning is just nothing.
15:32
Adam Curry: She started her career as a freelance journalist
15:34
for the BBC World Service and Voice of America. Hello.
15:38
Unknown: Speaker,
15:39
John C Dvorak: wow. Okay, you got you got me flat footed here.
15:42
I had no idea that this was, this goes back. She did a good
15:47
job of staying under the radar. As far as I'm concerned. Well,
15:51
Adam Curry: both, I mean, all world services, certainly the
15:55
BBC World Service. I, you know, before I when I was still
15:59
working at the pirate radio station. I was someone had said,
16:04
Hey, this guy does stuff in English. He does radio and the
16:08
Dutch World Service at, you know, interviewed me or had me
16:11
in for an interview to see if I wanted to work for them. And
16:15
what was that guy's name? It was, well, he was a British guy.
16:19
And I was like, why is a British guy running the Dutch Vidal
16:24
ummru, the World Service for the Netherlands? And much later, I
16:28
realized, of course, he was a British spook running his mi
16:32
six. Mi six, of course. So when you're a freelance journalist
16:37
for the BBC World Service and Voice of America, tribunal to
16:40
Cuba, Syria, Panama, and several European countries. Wow. So at
16:47
least we know a little bit more about our our friends,
16:52
John C Dvorak: debt, debt. I'm impressed. All right. Here we
16:54
go.
16:54
Unknown: I have to say, though, I am just so exhausted by the
16:57
idea that she is so far left and that she's a communist. They try
17:03
this for Biden in 2020, Biden's economy, by the way, stop.
17:10
John C Dvorak: This is what guy? Yeah, I saw this series too, and
17:13
it was like, and I didn't, I didn't clip it, but it was like,
17:17
who, when and where did they call Biden a communist. I don't
17:22
do you remember this? We covered the campaign very closely. When
17:27
was Biden ever called a communist?
17:30
Adam Curry: I don't think he has ever been called a communist.
17:34
John C Dvorak: I don't think so either. So why do they drop this
17:37
little nugget? This Biden was also called a communist. Why is
17:42
this night? This has to be for a reason, not as you bring up that
17:45
she's a spook. It has to be for some spook reason.
17:49
Adam Curry: It was Jonathan marks who ran the the Dutch
17:53
World Service. Let me see if I can. Am I six? Let me see
17:58
John C Dvorak: we still preoccupied with that. Anyway.
18:00
Who was that guy who tried to you could have been a spook.
18:06
Unknown: They tried this for Biden in 2020. Biden's a
18:09
communist. If he gets into power, the entire country is
18:11
going to collapse. I mean, this is something I hear in Miami all
18:14
the time, and pretty far left,
18:19
John C Dvorak: I'm sorry, I missed. No, no, no, no, it's
18:21
Adam Curry: okay, because I understand this is why the clip
18:24
has been chosen.
18:26
John C Dvorak: Did she say she's hearing this in Miami?
18:29
Adam Curry: Oh, there's a lot going on in Miami. Yes, there's
18:32
reasons. She says, I have the other clips why she's hearing
18:35
Okay, I'm
18:36
John C Dvorak: gonna try to shut up.
18:37
Adam Curry: No, no, no. Interrupt as much as you want,
18:40
entire country
18:41
Unknown: is going to collapse. I mean, this is something I hear
18:43
in Miami all the time, and she said
18:45
a lot of pretty far left
18:47
Biden. Biden was not a communist. The country hasn't
18:50
fallen into communism. And I will say that she, in 2019 said
18:55
some things that definitely fall into the progressive camp, which
18:59
she has now recanted, and although
19:02
never explaining why. You
19:04
never good enough, like, literally,
19:08
you had this view on decriminalization. You had this
19:10
view, what's your explanation? My values haven't changed. What
19:13
happened
19:13
with Donald Trump and abortion
19:16
he was for? What about, ism I'm not. No, I don't want to do the
19:21
water. What I want to say is, there is a real question about,
19:25
what does Kamala Harris actually believe? And that is, I think, a
19:29
fair question to be pressed on. I'm not saying that it isn't.
19:32
What I think is not fair is this is just the extrapolation from
19:36
that, that somehow she is the next sort of, you know, Mao Tse
19:39
Tung that's going to come over here.
19:41
Anybody's saying that, but anyway, Donald Trump.
19:45
We're going to get to talk about Donald Trump. All right,
19:48
Adam Curry: I'm going to do the Donald Trump because Kara's
19:50
featured on that. Then I'm going to come back to this Miami
19:53
thing, which plays into what Lulu was saying. There
19:57
Unknown: is no proof that tech companies colluding. To do this.
20:00
This is nonsense, and he knows it.
20:03
I'm sorry, there was a major institutional effort.
20:07
No, there was absolutely, I have been one of the biggest critics
20:10
of tech. This is nonsense, absolutely nonsense. And when he
20:13
just discounts, she's,
20:14
Adam Curry: by the way, biggest critic of tech, what you do is
20:17
you go advertise on the pivot podcast. Apple advertises on
20:22
Pivot. I don't think Apple is advertised on anything. In
20:28
podcasting, they advertise on pivot and come and Kamala Kara's
20:34
all like, Oh, I I love the new iPhone. I love the vision Pro.
20:39
Makes so much sense. Yes, spatial computing is great. They
20:43
are bought and sold for on that show. I'm saying it, biggest
20:47
critics in
20:47
Unknown: tech. This is nonsense, absolutely nonsense. And when he
20:51
just discounts, are the court cases, dozens thrown off
20:54
Twitter. They were and then they Scott, let me try again to
20:57
explain to you what actually happened. Made a mistake.
21:03
Adam Curry: She's trying to correct the Hunter Biden laptop
21:06
story, where the New York Post was kicked off Twitter, and now
21:12
she's trying to say, no, no, they made a mistake, and they
21:15
corrected it. This is quite unbelievable.
21:20
Unknown: Thrown off Twitter. They were and then they Scott,
21:22
let me try again to explain to you what actually happened.
21:25
That's
21:25
Adam Curry: a mansplaining
21:30
Unknown: the New York Post
21:35
really hard to deal with, repeating things that aren't
21:43
true. Did they get thrown off Twitter? They did, and then they
21:45
said that we made a mistake, and they put them right back. Them
21:49
John C Dvorak: right back on
21:50
Adam Curry: No. And he even says it was after the election, and
21:53
listened to her lie things
21:54
Unknown: that aren't true. Did they get thrown off Twitter?
21:56
They did. And then they said that we made a mistake, and they
21:59
put them right back, just like CNN does, just like the New York
22:02
Times. It wasn't after the election, it was during the
22:05
time, and they switched back Dorsey switch
22:07
Adam Curry: during the time, and they switched back Dorsey switch
22:09
switch. But Kara Swisher, shame on
22:13
Unknown: you. So I think what the issue is is you think
22:16
Twitter is the government. You think Twitter is running things,
22:20
and there's not this wide collusion. But, and Jeanne Vance
22:22
knows that because he's worked in tech, he knows
22:25
Adam Curry: there, do you see what she's saying? There was not
22:27
widespread collusion. It's so nasty.
22:32
Unknown: What the issue is is you think Twitter is the
22:35
government. You think Twitter is running things, and there is not
22:40
John C Dvorak: this. Who on the panel said that they think
22:42
Twitter is the government. Nobody
22:44
Adam Curry: said that, but she's, that's Scott Jensen, I
22:47
think the guy who's, uh, supposedly, a conservative. But
22:51
then here comes the lie.
22:52
John C Dvorak: Oh yeah, by the way, these shows, because I was
22:56
watching one of the other day, I was gonna take some clips on
22:58
this. It's like, why? What's the the point is futile. Oh, it's
23:02
fine. They have a fake they was on one of the shows. I'm trying
23:07
to think, which one I can think in a minute, but it's one of the
23:10
MSNBC shows. Where you have the we have a Democrat and a
23:14
Republican strategist. And the Republican strategist is someone
23:18
no one's ever heard of. She worked for Cuomo, and she was,
23:24
she hates Trump, yeah. I mean, what kind of this is bullcrap?
23:28
They did listen to these phony baloneys. They just like
23:31
bringing oh, here's Adam Kissinger, you know, represented
23:35
the Republican Party, and he's going to be standing here with
23:38
Liz Cheney, who's, who's endorsing a bunch of Democrats
23:43
for various congressional offices in Texas. This is
23:47
bullcrap that they people. Anyone believe this?
23:53
Adam Curry: Oh, sorry. No.
23:54
Unknown: You think Twitter is running things, and there is not
23:57
this wide collusion, but and GDB is wide
23:59
Adam Curry: collusion, there's not this wide collusion, narrow
24:07
your you are a disgrace to podcasting.
24:13
John C Dvorak: Oh, that's coming from the podfather. The
24:16
podfather
24:16
Adam Curry: has spoken
24:21
Unknown: because he's worked in tech, he knows there are,
24:23
there's no such thing as big tech. There are big tech
24:25
companies. They do not collude on
24:27
this issue.
24:29
Adam Curry: Thank you. Thank you for setting me up. Perfect.
24:31
Okay, so because it was actually NPR, who are, who are leading
24:37
the story on what's happening with the Latinos, the Hispanics,
24:41
the Cubanos in Miami, and they're baffled. There was
24:45
Unknown: a Marist poll that showed nearly 60% will support
24:48
Trump in November. Now, Florida has also had this long and
24:51
significant population of conservative Cuban Americans.
24:54
But I'm just curious, like, what's causing this? What's
24:57
behind the movement? How
24:59
Adam Curry: about. Um, the Democrat Party sucks.
25:02
Unknown: Yeah. I mean, I think Miami Dade County in South
25:05
Florida is, um, is a very specific example, right? So
25:08
Miami Dade County, of course, it's the most populous county in
25:10
the state. It has a lot of political power, but the
25:13
majority are, to your point, they're Cuban American,
25:15
conservative, Cuban Americans, and so I think for decades, rep,
25:19
Adam Curry: how come they don't say far right Cuban Americans.
25:23
How come now it's just conservative Cuban Americans.
25:26
You guys got to get your style guide right Cuban
25:28
Unknown: American, conservative Cuban Americans. So I think for
25:31
decades, Republicans have been doing something really well, and
25:35
that is sort of casting Democrats as socialists, not as
25:39
communists. Sort of manipulating the meaning of words so that,
25:42
right now, if you turn on the radio, if you turn on some of
25:46
the local news, it's pretty common to hear that Vice
25:49
President Kamala Harris is Comrade Harris, right? So that's
25:52
a very intentional sort of effort. That's not
25:55
Adam Curry: But Wait, didn't George Soros buy all the radio
25:59
stations? How can this b That makes no sense. He bought all
26:02
the Latino radio stations. He was going to flip the election
26:06
with the stupid Spanish people who listen to am radio, huh?
26:10
Unknown: Vice President Kamala Harris is Comrade Harris, right?
26:13
And so that's a very intentional sort of effort. That's not new.
26:17
It's been happening for decades, and so I'm not completely
26:20
surprised that Donald Trump could potentially become the
26:24
first Republican presidential candidate to win the Latino vote
26:29
in Florida in the in the last 20 years,
26:32
and he's working hard to do it this election. Here he is in a
26:35
town hall this week with Univision when he was asked
26:38
about immigration. They're
26:40
coming in totally nobody knows who they are, where they come
26:43
from, and the people that are most against it are the Hispanic
26:47
people. They are totally against it. What's happened?
26:50
They're eating the dogs. Yeah,
26:55
John C Dvorak: that's a girl's greatest that's a clip of the
26:57
year. Yeah,
26:58
Adam Curry: yeah. So you want to hear more of that. Are you? Are
27:00
you kidding?
27:01
John C Dvorak: I find this hilarious. Oh
27:03
Adam Curry: yeah, this so they and this guy is just feigning,
27:06
is I don't understand, but they're people of color. That
27:09
makes no sense. How can they like Hitler Stalin, Nazi?
27:12
Unknown: I'm struck by something that he said there. He said the
27:14
people that are most against it, this illegal immigration subject
27:18
that he talks so much about,
27:19
Adam Curry: are the people who came in legally turd or
27:22
Hispanic. What
27:23
Unknown: do you make of that?
27:24
I mean, look, even it's kind of surreal that Donald Trump feels
27:28
so comfortable stepping into Miami, Dade County, where
27:31
there's so many immigrants, and so comfortable stepping into
27:34
these Spanish language spaces like Univision
27:37
Adam Curry: Spanish what spaces Hold on a second. What
27:40
John C Dvorak: are these spaces? Spanish language spaces? Oh,
27:44
Adam Curry: is that on x a Spanish language space into
27:46
Unknown: Miami, Dade County, where there's so many
27:49
immigrants, and so comfortable stepping into these Spanish
27:51
language spaces like Univision and using this anti immigrant
27:55
rhetoric. I mean, if we were having this conversation 510,
27:58
years ago, I honestly wouldn't, wouldn't believe that, but I
28:01
think that comfort level is exactly what places like Fox
28:04
News are paying attention.
28:09
Adam Curry: Is this this woman? No, this is not Lulu. Lulu is
28:12
coming back up in a moment. Who is this? This is someone. This
28:15
is some other NPR expert. Because you know, when you're
28:19
doing a story on I'd like the racist
28:22
John C Dvorak: angle that she uses, as if, if you're a
28:25
Hispanic, you have to love every illegal that comes in if they
28:29
have brown skin, yeah, not recognizing the fact that even
28:33
the white population in the turn of the century, the white
28:37
population, the Italians and whoever was in the Country,
28:40
hated the Irish, who were also white. That's right, when they
28:43
came in, they didn't like them. And now and then we back when
28:47
the Italians came in, the whites that were already there didn't
28:49
like the these are whites not liking whites coming in. Why
28:53
wouldn't the Hispanics exhibit the same characteristics unless
28:57
they're racist, like this woman is obviously racist. 10
29:01
Adam Curry: PR, the National Public racist
29:03
Unknown: comfort level is exactly what places like Fox
29:06
News are paying attention to, right? And it's this comfort
29:10
level that I think stems from the idea that the polls are
29:13
showing that a majority of Latinos, including foreign born
29:17
Latinos, aren't insulted when Donald Trump uses this anti
29:21
immigrant rhetoric, right? They see this sort of wall between
29:24
You're right.
29:24
Adam Curry: She can only see color of skin, like anti anti
29:30
illegal immigration rhetoric. But I mean,
29:37
John C Dvorak: this is the Democrats dilemma. They are
29:41
inherently racist to the bone themselves
29:45
Unknown: as Latinos and the other as immigrants.
29:48
Well, you would talk talk more about that, because in this town
29:50
hall, he doubled down on his false argument that migrants
29:53
were eating people's pets, eating the
29:58
Adam Curry: dogs dust. So racist that he said that
30:01
Unknown: argument that migrants were eating people's pets in
30:05
Ohio, you're right, this anti immigrant rhetoric, it doesn't
30:08
seem to be doing anything to erode his support with these
30:10
voters at all. But I don't understand that because they're
30:13
not eating their
30:14
pets. Look. I
30:15
mean, I think, I think immigration is the closing
30:17
argument for Donald Trump, right? I think he's very
30:20
intentionally trying to reenact that 2016 BUILD THE WALL moment,
30:24
and now getting an even more visceral reaction through send
30:27
them back. And I think the difference between 2020 and 2024
30:31
is that they've understood that even Latinos, right, even the
30:34
descendants of immigrants, these
30:36
Adam Curry: people, they must get picked up by limo in the
30:38
morning with blackened windows so they don't see what's
30:41
actually happening in on the streets of America. Or, you
30:47
know, they're too busy reading their scripts, or some things
30:50
like, Don't you see that? I
30:51
John C Dvorak: think the limbo argument is probably the valid
30:53
one. Can
30:54
Unknown: tap into that nativism and that was that anger. It may
30:59
not make sense, but just from, from, from a practical level, if
31:03
you have someone that is creating such fear through fear
31:07
mongering and information and trying to get Americans believe
31:10
that there's this existential threat happening in your door,
31:13
like people believe that, no, and so I think it's, it's the
31:16
tactic is simple, get people to vote out of fear.
31:19
Adam Curry: Well, I don't know about you miss NPR, but right
31:22
down the road in San Antonio, 20 Venezuelan gang members were
31:27
arrested who had apartment complexes completely under
31:31
siege. So that's kind of on my doorstep, so I don't know you're
31:36
in the limo reading your scripts. All right, so now we'll
31:39
go to Lulu, because Lulu interviewed JD Vance, and again,
31:44
it's about the hunter laptop and the and the big tech censorship.
31:49
Because, for some reason, Lulu, she is the New York Times
31:55
comment. Is the New York Times podcast. I think she just can't
31:58
see that that actually happened, or she hasn't looked up the
32:02
timeline, or, I don't know, in
32:04
Unknown: the debate, you were asked to clarify, if you believe
32:06
Trump lost the 2020 election? Do you believe he lost the 2020
32:10
election? I
32:11
think that Donald Trump and I have both raised a number of
32:13
issues with the 2020 election, but we're focused on the future.
32:17
I think there's an obsession here. With focusing on 2020 I'm
32:20
much more worried about what happened after 2020 which is a
32:23
wide open border, groceries that are unaffordable and look.
32:26
Senator,
32:27
yes or no,
32:28
yes, Donald Trump,
32:29
Adam Curry: yes, no. I'm Lulu. I'm from the New York Times.
32:32
Senator, yes or no, he just it's a yes or no question. Do they
32:36
think they're in Congress? Because Congress does all that's
32:38
exactly
32:38
John C Dvorak: what it sounds like. Is a congressional but
32:41
she's obvious. If your thesis, thesis, what kind of what do you
32:46
mean? Thesis, my reason, obvious, my facts, you're
32:51
bringing this up. She has got the government meant she's got
32:55
government? Yes, yes. So she's going to act like one, yeah,
33:01
Unknown: exactly, unaffordable. And look, Senator
33:03
yes or no. By the way,
33:04
Adam Curry: that sounds like an edit too. Maybe it's just me,
33:08
Unknown: border groceries that are unaffordable. And look,
33:11
Senator yes or no. Did Donald Trump lose the 2020 election?
33:16
Let
33:16
me ask you a question. Is it okay?
33:20
Adam Curry: Good one. Vance, that
33:21
Unknown: big technology companies censored the Hunter
33:24
Biden laptop story which independent analysis have said
33:27
cost Donald Trump millions of votes.
33:29
Senator, Vance, I'm going to ask you again, did Donald Trump lose
33:33
the 2020 election? Did
33:34
big technology companies censor a story that independent studies
33:39
have suggested would have cost Trump millions of votes.
33:43
I'm going to ask you again, did Donald Trump lose the 25
33:46
answered
33:46
your question with another question. You answer my question
33:48
and I'll answer yours.
33:53
Adam Curry: My brain is melting from this nonsense, but let's
33:57
keep it going. Let's keep it going because now we get some
33:59
news. I
34:00
John C Dvorak: like it when it turns into a pissing contest.
34:03
Oh, Vance is good at that. At least no Vance is. I'm actually
34:06
more impressed with this guy over the over the
34:09
Adam Curry: you didn't like him in the beginning. You were not a
34:11
fan. I
34:13
John C Dvorak: did not like him. I think he without his beer,
34:15
especially without his beard. He looks like like a, like a young,
34:19
uh, mean spirited Rush Limbaugh. He looks like Rush Limbaugh
34:23
without his beard, and, and he's cocky, but the beard, I think
34:29
the beard, softens his look and makes you think differently
34:32
about him, because it's a modern look, and, and when you start
34:36
listening to him do his thing, yeah, he is so sharp, yeah, that
34:42
you have to start to like him.
34:44
Adam Curry: All right, we continue now. New terms.
34:46
Unknown: I have asked this question repeatedly. It is
34:48
something that is very important for the American people to know.
34:52
There is no proof, legal or otherwise, that Donald Trump did
34:57
not lose the 2020, election. You're.
35:00
Eating a slogan rather than engaging with what I'm saying,
35:02
which is that when our own technology firms engage in
35:06
industrial scale censorship, by the way, back industrial scale
35:09
censorship set by the federal government in a way that
35:12
independent studies suggest affect the votes. I'm worried
35:16
about Americans who feel like there were problems in 2020 I'm
35:19
not worried about this slogan that people throw Well, every
35:22
court case went this way. I'm talking about something very
35:25
discreet, a problem of censorship in this country that
35:29
I do think affected things in 2020 and more importantly, that
35:32
led to Kamala Harris's governments, which has screwed
35:36
this country up in a big way.
35:38
Adam Curry: All right, these are pretty short. So one more here,
35:42
Senator,
35:42
Unknown: would you have certified the election in 2020?
35:45
Yes or no, I've said that I
35:46
would have voted against certification because of the
35:48
concern that I just raised. I think that when you have
35:50
technology companies, the answer is no. When you have technology
35:53
companies censoring Americans at a mass scale in a way that,
35:57
again, independent studies have suggested affect the vote, I
36:00
think that it's right to protest against that, to criticize that,
36:03
and that's a totally reasonable thing. So
36:05
the answer is no.
36:07
Adam Curry: Oh, Lulu, all right, this final one will bring us to
36:10
another important topic. And
36:11
John C Dvorak: the last question I need to follow this woman,
36:13
because what all you brought up?
36:15
Adam Curry: Oh, no, she's, she's an important character, because
36:18
John C Dvorak: she's obviously been brought to the fore because
36:21
she, I never heard of her until this recent you know, she's been
36:26
obviously showing up here and there, out of the blue, by the
36:29
way, she have an agent. How do you do that? Oh, I'm sure she
36:32
has an agent. I'm sure she does. You run into these reporter from
36:36
the New York Times with an agent out of the blue. She starts
36:41
showing up on stuff. She's just out of the blue. She's now, now
36:44
a player. How does that work? Well, it works because somebody
36:47
else is behind it all.
36:50
Unknown: And the last question, will you support the election
36:52
results this time and commit to a peaceful transfer of power?
36:56
Well, first
36:56
of all, of course, we commit to a peaceful transfer of power. We
36:59
are going to have a peaceful transfer of power. I of course
37:02
believe that peaceful transfer of power is going to make Donald
37:04
Trump the next President of the United States. But if there are
37:08
problems, of course, in the same way that Democrats protested in
37:11
2004 and Donald Trump raised issues in 2020 we're going to
37:16
make sure that this election counts, that every legal ballot
37:20
is counted. We've filed almost 100 lawsuits at the RNC to try
37:25
to ensure that every legal ballot has counted. I think you
37:28
would maybe criticize that. We see that as an important effort
37:32
to ensure election integrity, but certainly we're going to
37:34
respect the results in 2024 and I feel very confident they're
37:37
going to make Donald
37:38
Adam Curry: Trump the next president. So about this
37:40
peaceful transfer of power? And a lot of people email me this,
37:43
and I think there's been some misunderstanding, and certainly,
37:46
oh, let me say it some misinformation about this
37:50
presidential brief to the Department of Defense, which is
37:56
DoD directive five to 401. I'm sure you've received emails
38:00
about this.
38:01
John C Dvorak: I watched a presentation on this particular
38:05
by Jimmy Dore, no, God No no, by a guy who's x in x is crazy, and
38:11
I think it's called s2 or s3 it's a podcast, but this guy's
38:15
wearing a mask. He claims to have been in the Department of
38:18
Defense, in that secretive little agency they have, yeah,
38:23
which is, is the spookiest of the spook agencies we, I think
38:27
we did the DoD agency, and he analyzes this to an extreme, and
38:33
had to, I thought, broke it down in a very reasonable he's good
38:37
this guy. Well,
38:38
Adam Curry: let me tell you my takeaway, and tell me if that
38:40
fits with what the masked guy said. Because, you know, this is
38:45
a legal document, so you know, and if, and if you don't
38:48
understand, this is an update to to directive for the Department
38:52
of Defense. 521, dot O dot five, six, from November of 2020, so
38:59
before January 6, even then you don't understand that this has
39:05
been on the books for a long time, and it doesn't he takes it
39:08
back to 2007 Yes, you can take it back further. And it doesn't
39:11
actually give permission to for the for the military to come in
39:17
and start shooting people at all, at all, at all. What it
39:21
does do, and this is, I think, is actually more interesting
39:24
than the way people are discussing it is it broadens the
39:29
special authority to buy bypass Congress. So, in fact, it was
39:36
not even Nancy Pelosi call to bring in the National Guard or
39:41
the military, and it gives the President and the Secretary of
39:44
Defense more leeway to invoke this, which is assistance, but
39:49
it's not necessarily a violation of the posse commentatis Act,
39:54
which I'm against. All of this in general, I don't think any of
39:58
this is good, but. It really makes who was, who was in
40:02
charge, who was the Secretary of Defense during January 6?
40:09
John C Dvorak: I'm not sure
40:11
Adam Curry: was that Millie? I think it was Millie. No, no.
40:14
John C Dvorak: Millie was never the secretary. No, he
40:15
Adam Curry: was Joint Chiefs of Staff, right? Well, I'm thinking
40:21
this really strengthens Trump's case even more. And I'm not so
40:27
sure why, you know, and well, yeah, I You can argue that this
40:32
is put in because they know Trump's going to win and that
40:34
the nut jobs are going to be out. We need some, we need some,
40:38
some loosened authority. But this is not new. That's my
40:41
point. This is not really new. But everyone approached like, oh
40:46
my god, they're gonna start killing Maga if, if Trump loses,
40:49
I don't, first of all, I don't think mag is gonna go crazy.
40:53
Second of all, I don't think that's on deck. What did your
40:55
mask man say? He
40:57
John C Dvorak: says it's really about using drones domestically.
41:00
Yeah, it's
41:01
Adam Curry: surveillance, exactly, exactly, surveillance
41:04
and, yeah, and that kind of stuff. But it's not a you cannot
41:07
deploy the military against American citizens. There are
41:10
some very specific cases where you can do that, which is
41:14
mentioned in the in both of these. But it's really, you
41:19
know, terrorism and a couple other things, is not for out of
41:23
control protest.
41:24
John C Dvorak: Now, unfortunately, I think I want to
41:27
get back and on track to what you were talking about before
41:29
you brought this in, which I didn't think was applies, is
41:34
that the end of that last back and forth with was Trump. But
41:39
you know about the 2020 election. It's beyond me why
41:46
Vance and all the rest of them don't bring up the fact that to
41:50
this day, Hillary thinks she won the 2016 election, and it was a
41:56
not my president era, and Trump was it was a fraudulent and they
42:01
went on and on and out to this day, Hillary thinks she won 2016
42:06
and what's the difference between Trump thinking he won
42:09
2020 and Hillary, to this day, thinking she won 2016 and the
42:14
Democrats and the and the pundits, and nobody says
42:17
anything about it, though it never happened. That's
42:19
Adam Curry: not exactly what she says. She says Russia stole it
42:24
for Trump. She's she's very, she's very smart about that. She
42:28
doesn't say, I
42:30
John C Dvorak: Okay. The point is, she still thinks she should
42:32
have been President. Yes. Well,
42:34
Adam Curry: now you sound like Twitter. I sound like Twitter.
42:38
People on Twitter talk about this all the time? Well,
42:41
John C Dvorak: I don't talk about it on Twitter all the
42:43
time. I just know funny. I
42:45
Adam Curry: didn't say you talk about on Twitter. No, and the
42:48
domain, the more damning to me is the Democrats,
42:51
John C Dvorak: including, hold on a second, what this damn
42:54
machine wants to you. Came up with a oh no, on a reboot.
42:57
Adam Curry: Oh no, no. No. Sleep later.
43:01
John C Dvorak: Signage thing went, he
43:02
Adam Curry: went away. You can't, you can't just stop it.
43:04
It's gonna just reboot. I don't know
43:06
John C Dvorak: if you go, if I go offline, you know the reason
43:08
keep moving
43:09
Adam Curry: the mouse, whatever you do, keep moving. Keep moving
43:12
the mouse. No more damning is when, uh, who's the lady who ate
43:16
the salad with her comb, the what? Yeah, the senator who ate
43:21
the she was, she ran for president, uh, with the with
43:24
the, come on. She ate this. She was Elizabeth
43:27
John C Dvorak: Warren, no, no. Klobuchar. Klobuchar, Klobuchar,
43:30
Klobuchar, the one that throws the staplers, yeah?
43:33
Adam Curry: And who ate the salad with her fork, yeah? I
43:36
mean, with those comb, with her comb, she, she was on a panel
43:40
with multiple Democrats saying, you know, the machines are
43:43
rigged. That's more damning to me, but that's not brought up
43:47
very often. Anyway, I
43:49
John C Dvorak: do have nothing is brought up. This whole thing
43:52
is a charade. Well,
43:53
Adam Curry: no, if people would stop posting crap on social
43:57
media, no one would even be talking about
43:59
John C Dvorak: it. Well, that's not gonna happen. No, I
44:02
Adam Curry: know. Now you brought in a clip, which, again,
44:07
this is one of these. What is wrong with shrimp? He says he's
44:11
the father of IVF, yeah. But upon further analysis, you can
44:20
interpret what he said in a different way, and I'm going to
44:25
set you up So Neil, but you can. You're good enough at this to
44:29
hear what you hear. I think he says, I'm father of IVFs, as in,
44:39
he has fathered children through IVF.
44:43
Unknown: Listen carefully tonight FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD
44:46
TRUMP under fire after making this strange claim about in
44:49
vitro fertilization to an all female town hall, I want to
44:53
talk about IVF. I'm the father of IVF. I want to hear this
44:56
question. He
44:57
Adam Curry: doesn't say I'm the father of IVF. He says, I'm the
45:00
father of IVFs.
45:02
John C Dvorak: He does, which says IVFs, so maybe
45:06
Adam Curry: Baron was IVF. Think about it. Let that sink in. Wow.
45:15
John C Dvorak: I'll give you that one. You get two today.
45:17
Unknown: All female town halls. Oh, I
45:19
want to talk about IVF? I'm the father of IVF, so I want to hear
45:23
this
45:24
Adam Curry: question. So I think he that one of his kids, at
45:28
least, maybe must be plural if he says IVFs, because there's a
45:32
clear s in there. Now, of course, he's just demented, so,
45:36
you know, but I
45:39
John C Dvorak: want to bring a clip in, uh, because it's based
45:43
on what you were just discussing about this Lula woman and her
45:48
commentary. Lulu, Lulu, Lulu is a
45:50
Adam Curry: lulu, yeah, Lulu. That's her first.
45:53
John C Dvorak: And the fact that the people drive around in limbo
45:56
and they don't have a clue, and they're reading this, which I
45:58
believe, which I believe is true. It brings us to Anna
46:01
Kasparian,
46:02
Adam Curry: the famous Oh, and finally, Anna Kasparian, I've
46:05
been waiting yes because she has
46:08
John C Dvorak: had an experience that kind of turned her off,
46:11
onto on certain kinds of thinking. Now explain who she is
46:14
first, Anna Kasparian is the girl the the Armenian girl that
46:18
six knit sits next to chunk yugar on the on the Young Turk
46:24
show, which is on various cable networks. And hugr is probably
46:29
the father of the socialist Democrats movement. He it's not
46:34
got anything to do with it anymore, but he's the one
46:36
probably behind, I would say it was very radical, certainly
46:40
during she's an extreme. She's a very lying communist, very well,
46:45
I
46:45
Adam Curry: don't know about that, but she was very hateful
46:47
of Trump and very hateful of Republicans. She's
46:50
John C Dvorak: a very hateful girl. Now, she
46:52
Adam Curry: was quite hateful,
46:54
John C Dvorak: and here she is now in 2022
46:57
Unknown: it was around March. I was walking my dog. It was not
47:01
quite dark yet, but the sun was setting as I'm walking my dog, I
47:05
see these two guys that they're eating the dogs in 2022 it was
47:11
around March. I was walking my dog. It was not quite dark yet,
47:15
but the sun was setting as I'm walking my dog, I see these two
47:19
guys that were, they were just kind of, like, moving around
47:24
weirdly, you know, they seem kind of manic, and their clothes
47:28
were tattered. So I just, I knew that they were probably
47:30
homeless, and I also knew that they're probably on something
47:33
just based on, like, the twitchy way they were acting, but living
47:37
in LA, I mean, I've, there's homeless people everywhere,
47:41
right? So I've never had problems. I didn't think
47:42
anything of it. But as I was bending down to pick up my dog's
47:46
mess, one of the guys like grabs me by my hips and he had an
47:52
erection, and just starts like, who's
47:55
Adam Curry: who's still providing the commentary?
47:58
John C Dvorak: Oh, God, who did that? That was
48:01
Adam Curry: Jillian Jillian Michaels.
48:03
John C Dvorak: This was an interview with Jillian Michaels
48:06
on her podcast. I
48:07
Adam Curry: like Jillian Michaels. She's she's doing
48:09
interesting shows these days. One of the
48:11
Unknown: guys like grabs me by my hips, and he had an erection,
48:16
oh God, and just starts like, humping me.
48:19
Adam Curry: Jillian, we might point out as a lesbian. So, yes,
48:22
it's extra interesting. She's given this commentary,
48:26
Unknown: and I I didn't know what to do, like I was
48:30
terrified. I didn't have a weapon on me, like I had no way
48:33
of defending myself. I didn't know how far it was gonna go,
48:35
because it's two guys. I'm by myself with my little dog,
48:38
terrified. It was the what, like one of the most terrifying
48:41
things ever, because I believe that I'm pretty good at
48:44
defending myself in that moment, I just knew there were there was
48:47
no option, yeah, yeah. And luckily, he stopped, and they
48:52
just laughed at me and walked away as they were laughing at
48:55
me. And so there was the fear, and then the humiliation and
49:00
weirdly shame, like I felt ashamed for some reason, and it
49:04
was awful, and it was really taking a toll on my mental
49:10
health, because I have to walk my dog, right? So at
49:12
Adam Curry: least I can't wait. I have not heard this clip. I'm
49:14
curious where this is going. Two
49:16
Unknown: or three times a day I'm going outside kind of
49:19
scared, and so I opened up about this on the show, not really
49:24
thinking much of it. And before I know it, I'm starting to get
49:27
these messages, and it's like you need to really, really harsh
49:31
stuff, and it's about how you are painting a picture of the
49:36
homeless community. You know, how could you be like this? You
49:39
know, these are your unhoused neighbors, and they need help.
49:43
What you know, a few people accused me of being racist when
49:46
I had never disclosed the race of the individuals who did this
49:49
to me, and in fact, they were white. And so like when they
49:53
started accusing me of being racist, I'm like, wait a minute.
49:55
Why are you assuming that the people who did this? Of course,
49:59
yeah, like. I think you might have a problem here exactly.
50:02
Yeah, that woke me up. That woke me up because I'm like, Oh, my
50:05
God.
50:07
Adam Curry: Oh, well, that's interesting. I didn't know that
50:09
that was her awakening story.
50:12
Unknown: Yeah,
50:13
Adam Curry: she's gone much further. It
50:14
John C Dvorak: wasn't, it wasn't the event itself. It was the
50:17
reaction to her talking about it, right, right, right. That
50:21
got her that woke her up. She realized that she was amongst
50:26
Adam Curry: a holes, because now, yeah, now she's being
50:29
excoriated, and the left hate her and are telling chunk he
50:32
should fire her. And,
50:34
John C Dvorak: yeah, she's out of the club, and chunks keeping
50:37
her for sure, because he likes her on the show. She's a good
50:40
foil. She has good things to say, and she's a natural
50:43
broadcaster. She sure is, and it's like, this is, I'm sure
50:48
she's going to end up becoming a Republican,
50:53
Adam Curry: well, if not, and she continues to be a journalist
50:58
or a TV personality, according to Morning Joe, she's going to
51:03
be on the list. This isn't
51:05
Unknown: a Republican Party right now, and they know it. So
51:09
there are those who are like, wow, this isn't the party I
51:12
recognize. But what's the permission structure? Are you
51:15
hearing it from any of your Republican friends in the
51:17
business community? This,
51:19
Adam Curry: by the way, who you hear in a moment is Donnie
51:21
Deutsch, former advertising executive.
51:24
John C Dvorak: That guy has lost control. Yeah, he
51:27
Adam Curry: went from, I mean, back in the day, and I'm talking
51:31
mid 90s, when I was in advertising in New York, Donny
51:34
Deutsch was Donny Deutsch, man. He's, he's quite the dude, and
51:38
now he's just Donny douche.
51:40
Unknown: That can be created for a vote for Kamala Harris at a
51:43
time like this.
51:45
You know, I talk, as we all talk to a lot of people who vote for
51:48
Trump, and I say to them, and I still can't figure out, do they
51:54
not believe it, or do they not care? Do they not understand
51:58
that our freedom is on the line? Do they not get that, or do they
52:01
just not care? Do they take freedom for granted at this
52:04
point? And I challenge people, and I say, You do understand
52:08
that he will, he will turn on this country, and he will turn
52:12
us into Hungary. Do you not understand the freedoms that
52:15
started as you brought it up? It started with Roe v Wade. It will
52:18
continue. It will continue by putting his enemies in jail, it
52:21
will continue on having unfree media. Are there people around
52:24
this table that are really worried? Rev, are you worried
52:28
going forward, that you're on a list if Donald Trump is elected?
52:31
Yes or no, I'm
52:33
convinced I'll be on the list. I don't know how we're not going
52:37
to be and think
52:37
about that. This is America. This is the United States of
52:40
America, and people in the media like the rev have to be
52:44
concerned that they may be on a list. I have people saying to
52:47
me, Donnie, are
52:48
Adam Curry: you worried this is America? Well, I'm on a list.
52:52
I'm on. I'm on Trump's list. I'm a journalist. I'm gonna be
52:55
thrown in jail because he said that. Except he didn't.
52:58
John C Dvorak: He never said that. And is it? Are they
53:00
talking about the kind of Liz list that Tulsi Gabbard is on?
53:04
So she gets routed when she tries to get an error? Is it a
53:07
list like that? Exactly?
53:10
Adam Curry: Now, this is, well, we are in the final. What are we
53:13
now, 14, you know, 14 days, and you and I have just succumbed to
53:18
it. I mean, this is our fifth, our fifth rodeo. And so we just
53:21
have to this is all that the news is. There's some other
53:23
interesting stuff that we'll talk about, but you know, we're
53:26
just going to go through it all with you. For instance, breaking
53:30
new evidence former President
53:31
Unknown: Trump is calling the federal judge in this case,
53:33
Tanya jutkin, an evil person, for releasing these nearly 2000
53:38
pages of evidence submitted by Special Counsel Jack Smith, in
53:41
one of the depositions released today, a White House aide told
53:44
investigators, when Trump was informed,
53:46
Adam Curry: oh, here it comes. This is, this is the damning
53:49
evidence there was rioting
53:50
Unknown: at the Capitol, January 6, he responded by saying, Oh,
53:55
really, let's go see then the aide handed him the TV remote
53:59
control, the aide said he then went to grab Trump a Diet Coke.
54:03
Oh no, oh
54:04
no, throw him in
54:07
jail. Jack Smith has argued Trump scrolled his phone and
54:10
watched the attack on TV that day without immediately calling
54:14
off the rioters. Trump tried to delay the police
54:17
John C Dvorak: to do that, by the way, how is he supposed to
54:19
call off the rioters? Did they all have the earpieces? And he
54:22
was going to how is that supposed to work? The
54:24
Adam Curry: same way he killed the bill in Congress. Just make
54:26
some phone calls. You know, that's what it does.
54:29
Unknown: Calling off the rioters. Trump tried to delay
54:31
the release of these passages until after the election, but
54:34
Nora judge chuckin ruled holding back the information itself from
54:38
the public would be election interference.
54:40
Adam Curry: Now listen to this verse.
54:42
John C Dvorak: Oh my god. You know why he wanted to hold it
54:44
back. I can tell you because he didn't want to promote Coca
54:48
Cola. They've been woke and he doesn't need this promotion for
54:53
Coca Cola. Ask for a Diet Coke.
54:55
Adam Curry: Hold on a second. So listen to this. This is a great.
55:00
Version of the
55:00
Unknown: report the judge overseeing Donald Trump's 2020
55:03
election interference case unsealed nearly 2000 pages of
55:06
documents. The majority are heavily redacted, but they do
55:10
provide a small glimpse into the evidence that prosecutors will
55:13
present if the case goes to trial. Most of the material has
55:17
already been made public. It includes a transcript of Trump's
55:20
phone call, pressuring Georgia election official. Now
55:23
Adam Curry: listen for the quote. Listen for the quote.
55:25
This is what gets interesting. Includes
55:27
Unknown: a transcript of Trump's phone call pressuring Georgia
55:30
election officials to quote, find enough votes to reverse his
55:35
election loss in the state to Joe Biden.
55:38
Adam Curry: That's not a quote. He's making a whole run on
55:43
scent. What happened to end quote,
55:49
John C Dvorak: come on, yeah. Was poor form.
55:51
Adam Curry: Very poor form. So I guess the most entertaining
55:57
thing was the Al Smith dinner? Yes,
56:02
John C Dvorak: I have a couple of clips. I have some I have a
56:05
series of analysis of the dinner, but then I also have the
56:08
top five jokes that I didn't want to Yeah, I wanted to play a
56:13
couple of the gags that because Trump is funny.
56:15
Adam Curry: Can I play a seven second intro from ABC? Good
56:18
Morning America?
56:19
John C Dvorak: I Yes, please. The candidates appeared
56:22
Unknown: at a Catholic fundraiser last night, one in
56:24
person, the other by video. But it didn't take long for things
56:27
to take a darker turn, a
56:31
Adam Curry: darker turn. It took a very, very dark turn. This is
56:35
give us the background of the Al Smith dinner. So people, by the
56:38
way, love seeing the money honey there with her hair all in a bun
56:42
and her long white gloves. Marita barter, Maria Bartiromo
56:46
is fun to watch. She is fun to watch.
56:50
John C Dvorak: The L Smith dinner is a traditional dinner I
56:54
think goes back 70 years, and it refers to Al Smith, the first
56:58
Catholic I ever ran for president against Franklin
57:01
Roosevelt. And so they had the Catholic Charities put this
57:04
dinner on in his memory. And it became a tradition, and I think
57:10
it's in New York, and they had, and they get 10s of millions of
57:13
dollars to give away. And it the idea was, and we've seen Trump
57:19
at this I think on the show, we had some clips of, like four
57:23
years ago when he was against.
57:25
Adam Curry: Was that against Hillary? No,
57:27
John C Dvorak: I think it was no. That was actually she was at
57:31
the thing in 2016
57:32
Adam Curry: that was 2016 when, okay, it
57:34
John C Dvorak: was 20 it was a while ago. Yeah, and it was, it
57:38
was funny, because the Hillary and him both went at each other,
57:42
and even though he'd made some disparaging remarks about his
57:46
performance, at that old one be thinking it was too dark. Then,
57:50
of course, then he did gags again, but the idea is, you come
57:53
up and you do disparaging jokes about everybody you can, and
57:57
it's almost like a roast, but you're kind of given a free
58:00
reign. It's more like a Don Rickles Insult Comic hour. You'd
58:04
come up and you insult a bunch of people, and it's all for good
58:08
fun, and then you that's the end of it. And so that's basically
58:12
how what the NSA and it's a black tie affair, and only the
58:15
bigwigs. And as Trump put it, sorry,
58:17
Adam Curry: I think it's a white tie affair. Honestly, everybody
58:20
was white ties. Trump had a black tie. I know he was. He was
58:25
breaking protocol. It was a white tie event. Well,
58:28
John C Dvorak: the point is, is that they have, these guys are
58:30
all loaded. And they started off with, they usually have a real
58:33
comic, come on. And they, in this case, it was Jim Gaffigan,
58:36
who was quite
58:37
Adam Curry: good. I have a couple of clips from Gaffigan if
58:40
you want to hear any less. Yeah, you can play
58:41
John C Dvorak: those, because I don't have any Gaffigan clips,
58:43
but he was quite balanced, and it was annoying to Trump, yes,
58:49
not he thought Gaffigan was funny. And I watched Gaffigan as
58:52
Trump talked, to see what Gaffigan laughed at, because
58:56
Gaffigan is a professional and he laughed at the better
58:59
material and but he was irked. Trump was irked. And I think
59:04
he's kind of plant Tech was kind of chicken shit that he did.
59:07
He's does it in a good natured way. But he, he was irked at
59:11
Gaffigan got to use teleprompters, yes, and, and
59:15
nobody else got to use the teleprompters. And Gaffigan had
59:18
to put this act together, I think, quickly. So he needed a
59:20
teleprompter because he wasn't going to read from to read from
59:23
paper. And Trump read from paper, yeah? And when Trump did
59:27
his material, he read, he read the setup line and then looked
59:29
up and gave the punch line, yeah. And I thought it was
59:32
extremely well done for somebody who didn't have a prompter in
59:35
front of him, or he didn't have a rehearsed act, because this
59:38
was not rehearsed. I
59:39
Adam Curry: wonder who wrote it. I wonder who wrote Trump's
59:41
jokes. There's a guy. I
59:43
John C Dvorak: could not get his name, but he's been writing for
59:45
Trump for a while, apparently, and he writes a lot of gutfield
59:51
kind of referred to him because they accused the gut filled
59:55
staff, who's got about five writers that are all usually on
59:58
the show a lot. Yeah, and they got filled. So it wasn't any of
1:00:03
his writers, but he knew the guy who was, who was his main
1:00:06
writer. He's got one joke writer, and probably a couple
1:00:10
other guys contributing, but we don't know. So anyway, Gaffigan,
1:00:15
I thought was good.
1:00:17
Adam Curry: He was really good. I mean, I'll you play your
1:00:19
clips. Yeah, play the
1:00:21
John C Dvorak: Gaffigan clips, because they came before
1:00:22
Adam Curry: I'm over, clipped on Gaffigan. Play the funny ones.
1:00:27
Well, they're all fun. They were all really funny. And just, you
1:00:31
know, just so we started it off. Your Eminence, President Trump,
1:00:34
First Lady, random millionaires who are not yet billionaires.
1:00:40
Welcome to the 79th annual Al Smith Memorial dinner. As you
1:00:45
can please give it up as you can see how we're dressed. The theme
1:00:53
again is, let them eat cake. So then he goes after, you know,
1:01:02
after the DNC, kind of funny. Of course, Joe Biden was our second
1:01:06
Catholic president, right after JFK president. Biden couldn't be
1:01:11
here tonight the DNC made sure of that. It was, it was good. It
1:01:18
was a good little ribbing. Then he, of course, he's making jokes
1:01:21
about jokes about the Democrats that don't matter, such as mayor
1:01:25
Adams. Ten million is pretty impressive. I mean, granted, it
1:01:29
could bet you a studio apartment in Manhattan, which seems, you
1:01:34
know, expensive, especially considering you can get a mayor
1:01:37
for two business class flights you Oh, is, is? Oh, did I break?
1:01:47
I didn't think we had borders anymore. Intelligent joke was
1:01:53
funny enough. And then this was really the crux of of his, of
1:01:59
his whole thing there. This is a very nimble thing that I'm
1:02:02
trying to do, right? Because if I am too critical of President
1:02:08
of Vice President Harris, I will, you know, I will lose
1:02:14
friendships, and, you know, and mess up my career. And if I am
1:02:18
too critical of President Trump, I will lose friendships and
1:02:23
improve my career. Good laughs, good laughs.
1:02:30
John C Dvorak: Good line.
1:02:30
Adam Curry: He was here was another one that I thought was a
1:02:32
good line. The media has begun discussing the phenomena of
1:02:37
secret Trump voters. I don't know if you've heard about this,
1:02:40
people who publicly say they would never vote for Trump, but
1:02:44
then when they go in the voting booth, they do. It's a small
1:02:47
group. They're called the Biden family, and then final one here,
1:02:55
President Trump, before I invite you up here to the podium, I
1:03:01
want you to know if you are reelected, I always liked you,
1:03:08
and I'm not saying that because I don't want to be sent to a
1:03:11
labor camp. Yeah, it was a good he had some good stuff. He had
1:03:19
some before I play the
1:03:21
John C Dvorak: Trump jokes, I want to play the rundown, which
1:03:24
was done on NPR and and most of the liberal media hated the
1:03:29
Trump routine. He had some dark not funny, yeah, although
1:03:35
Stelter said it was funny, was he really? He broke ranks? Yeah.
1:03:40
Well, he's
1:03:40
Adam Curry: not really working for him anymore. He has to be
1:03:43
edgy.
1:03:44
John C Dvorak: So, yeah, that's spot edgy. Yeah. So Al Smith.
1:03:47
This is Al Smith on NPR. Former
1:03:49
Unknown: President Trump spoke at the Al Smith dinner in New
1:03:52
York City, Thursday night dinner to raise money for Catholic
1:03:55
Charities and often a regular stop every election cycle for
1:04:00
political candidates
1:04:01
tradition halls that I'm supposed to tell a few self
1:04:05
deprecating jokes this evening. So here it goes. Nope, I've got
1:04:12
nothing. I've got nothing.
1:04:16
Well, he did have one line about how happy he was to appear in
1:04:19
New York without a subpoena. And PR senior editor correspondent
1:04:23
Ron Alvin joins us now. Ron, thanks for being with us. Good
1:04:26
to be with you. Scott, maybe not many self deprecating jokes, but
1:04:31
Donald Trump made several personal and in a couple of
1:04:34
instances, salacious Japes, not sure they can be called jokes in
1:04:40
front of the cardinal and aimed at his political opponents. Did
1:04:44
his speech go, I have to say, beyond the bounds of decency.
1:04:48
And what does that say about political discourse these
1:04:50
days? It says
1:04:52
we're still very much in the age of Trump. He's setting the tone
1:04:56
once again, just as he's been doing for nearly a decade.
1:04:58
Here's one of his lines. From this week's Al Smith,
1:05:02
right now we have someone in the White House who can barely talk,
1:05:07
barely put together two coherent sentences, who seems to have
1:05:12
mental faculties of a child. Said, there's a person that has
1:05:18
nothing going no intelligence whatsoever. But enough about
1:05:24
Kamala Harris,
1:05:26
Adam Curry: so that was one of the lines that people can judge
1:05:31
for this. John. So that was one of the lines we really, you
1:05:36
know, if we laugh at anything, you know, we wouldn't get the
1:05:39
limo. We'd get, you know, regular old town car. So, yeah,
1:05:44
John C Dvorak: if people got a good laugh, it was a fun it was
1:05:47
a classic comedic construction where you talk you sounds like
1:05:53
you're talking about one person, either the switcheroo at the
1:05:55
end, classic, yeah. And I thought it was well, well
1:05:59
executed, since you had to read it and and everything's, oh no,
1:06:04
it's and it was, I didn't have any clips from the view, but the
1:06:07
view was unbelievably hateful. And there's supposed to be some
1:06:12
comics on there, yeah, they found nothing funny about it. It
1:06:15
was, it was beyond the pale. It was insulting. Is terrible,
1:06:19
terrible, terrible. Let's go to clip two from the NPR report.
1:06:22
Chris skipped
1:06:23
Adam Curry: the event. She sent a video instead, and she used
1:06:26
that to take a couple of jabs at Trump, saying that his lies
1:06:30
about the election violated the bearing false witness clause of
1:06:34
the 10 Commandments. Trump said that was disrespectful, but her
1:06:38
campaign may have decided overall, there was little upside
1:06:41
in seeing her there.
1:06:43
Unknown: Also this week, Donald Trump danced for half an hour
1:06:46
during a town hall. He refused to answer some questions at an
1:06:50
appearance at the Chicago Economic Club, backed out of a
1:06:53
CNBC interview. Is this causing any concerns among his
1:06:58
supporters about his fitness for high office.
1:07:02
Adam Curry: It's probably more disturbing to Harris voters than
1:07:05
Trump voters who are more or less accustomed to taking these
1:07:08
things in stride, and lately it extends to these last minute
1:07:11
cancelations. You mentioned CNBC. He also stiffed CBS 60
1:07:16
minutes. One of his campaign staffers has been quoted saying
1:07:20
that he's cutting back on his schedule because he's exhausted,
1:07:24
and at times, at least, he has seemed so. NBC posted a video
1:07:27
last night that appears to show Trump nodding off, eyes closed,
1:07:31
head bobbing at one of his own campaign events. On the other
1:07:36
hand, you have the more aggressive media strategy, as we
1:07:38
saw this week at the end of a 20 minute segment on Fox and
1:07:42
Friends and morning show, he announced he was going that day
1:07:45
to meet with Rupert, meaning Rupert Murdoch, the man behind
1:07:49
all things Fox. He already, we already knew that Trump has been
1:07:54
upset with the number of Harris surrogates and ads that have
1:07:57
appeared on Fox, and Trump said he was going to ask Rupert, as
1:08:01
he called him to cut these off and cut off negative ads for the
1:08:04
rest of the campaign, adding then I think we'll have the
1:08:07
victory. Oh, my God,
1:08:10
John C Dvorak: would they have a microphone in the meeting? Who
1:08:13
Are they kidding?
1:08:14
Adam Curry: No, but, oh, that's so serious. No wonder nobody
1:08:18
wants to listen to this nonsense, because it's just
1:08:20
putting me This is putting me to sleep.
1:08:23
John C Dvorak: Part three, and we're gonna go to Trump.
1:08:26
Unknown: Meanwhile, Kamala Harris was on Fox News, probably
1:08:29
not what most pollsters would call her demographic. What did
1:08:32
you see in her appearance
1:08:33
here? Again, it
1:08:34
Adam Curry: depends on which camp you ask Trump. Folks tended
1:08:37
to say she had been exposed and evasive. Harris. Folks were
1:08:41
proud of how she based the slings and arrows and
1:08:44
interruptions and held her ground on Fox. They were also
1:08:47
pleased just with the contrast Harris going on Fox while Trump
1:08:51
was canceling interviews and complaining about fact checkers
1:08:54
and tough questions
1:08:55
Unknown: and Pierre Ron Elvin, thanks so much for being with
1:08:57
us. Well,
1:08:58
Adam Curry: that's what Kamala does. She's not campaigning.
1:09:00
She's campaigning. That's her new thing
1:09:04
John C Dvorak: here. That's a good one. Thank you. Just before
1:09:06
I get to Trump, you might as well listen to what, hey, the
1:09:09
summary. I got a summary of Harris's talk. One of the best
1:09:12
ones, I'm from Brett bear. This is the Harris says Trump clip
1:09:17
was just
1:09:17
Unknown: over two weeks to go to the 11. I'm sorry. Sorry. Wrong
1:09:20
one.
1:09:21
John C Dvorak: This is the, this is what, this is a compilation
1:09:24
of Harris's comments on the Bret bear. This is great reporting.
1:09:30
Donald Trump. Democrats
1:09:31
Unknown: voted to Donald
1:09:32
Trump, Donald Trump, Donald Trump, Donald Trump, Donald
1:09:35
Trump, Donald Trump, Donald Trump, Donald Trump, Donald
1:09:39
Trump, Donald Trump, Donald
1:09:40
Trump,
1:09:41
Donald Trump,
1:09:42
Donald Trump, Donald Trump, Donald Trump,
1:09:47
Adam Curry: yeah, yeah, I saw that one even I didn't want to
1:09:50
clip that one. But
1:09:51
John C Dvorak: okay, yeah, I couldn't. I
1:09:52
Adam Curry: just had to resist. You couldn't resist, I
1:09:55
John C Dvorak: know. So I got the Trump top five jokes from
1:09:58
the Smith the. Gags and and since the NPR people and I guess
1:10:03
MSNBC, they don't, nobody gets the jokes or they didn't think
1:10:07
they were funny, so I added except for the last joke. And
1:10:10
the only reason I took this clip, by the way, because their
1:10:12
top number one joke was the one I was going to run anyway,
1:10:15
because I thought it was the funniest gag. It's at the very
1:10:18
end. It's the top one. But since the other ones that people can't
1:10:22
get I added I sweetened them with a rim shot, so people would
1:10:26
know when there was a punchline, when to laugh.
1:10:29
Unknown: I used to think that Democrats were crazy for saying
1:10:32
that men have periods. But then I met Tim waltz. Well, I'd
1:10:41
better wrap up, because Mayor Adams told me earlier that I
1:10:45
needed to make this one very quick, especially the city has
1:10:49
reserved this room for a large group of illegal aliens coming
1:10:52
in from Texas. There's a group called white dudes for Harris.
1:10:57
Have you seen this? White dudes for Harris? Anybody know some of
1:11:01
you here white dudes, that doesn't sound like it, but I'm
1:11:04
not worried about them at all, because their wives and their
1:11:08
wives lovers are all voting for me. A major issue in this race
1:11:16
is child care, and Kamala has put forward a concept of a plan.
1:11:21
A lot of people don't like it. The only piece of advice I would
1:11:24
have for her and the event that she wins, would be not to let
1:11:29
her husband, Doug anywhere near the nannies. Just keep them
1:11:32
away.
1:11:33
Adam Curry: Whoa, that did not work over well,
1:11:36
Unknown: that's that nasty one. Chuck Schumer is here looking
1:11:40
very glum.
1:11:47
But look on the bright side, Chuck, considering how woke your
1:11:51
party has become. If Kamala loses, you still have a chance
1:11:55
to become the first woman president
1:12:02
Adam Curry: that was, without a doubt, the best one.
1:12:04
John C Dvorak: It was pretty funny.
1:12:06
Adam Curry: You know, the reason why I think everyone's so down
1:12:09
about it is because Harris wasn't there, you know, she now,
1:12:13
I don't think she is capable of doing this type of shtick. It
1:12:18
would have been, you know, I would have even accepted if,
1:12:21
who's the SNL lady? If she had showed up, that would have been
1:12:24
at least funny. What's her name? The who plays Kamala?
1:12:28
Unknown: Yeah, I
1:12:28
John C Dvorak: don't remember her name. Yeah, she's decent.
1:12:31
She's almost as good as the best. Oh
1:12:33
Adam Curry: yeah, she's really good. And instead, the vice
1:12:36
president does a video with Mary Kate, which is
1:12:40
John C Dvorak: insulting to the Catholics. Wow.
1:12:44
Adam Curry: Well, on that note, here we go. Very Catholic. Tons
1:12:49
Unknown: of Catholics in Pennsylvania, and it is the
1:12:52
largest swing state. I'm not
1:12:53
negating that, right? No, I'm missing if I'm advising the
1:12:55
vice president as
1:12:57
Adam Curry: a Catholic, by the way, this is CNN.
1:12:59
Unknown: This wasn't a big thing, but this was shared all
1:13:01
over social media for Catholics, Gretchen, Whitmer, giving like
1:13:04
the Dorito as a Eucharist. Okay, guys, she made it. I'm telling
1:13:11
you. I'm telling you what Catholics were sharing social
1:13:13
media. You could sit there and say it wasn't intended. That's
1:13:15
what people took it, as I agree. So then for that, from a few
1:13:18
weeks ago to all of a sudden, sharp skipping the big Catholic
1:13:22
event for politics, the biggest one, and a long history of
1:13:25
Democrats continuing to slip at the Catholic vote, it is an
1:13:28
incredibly strategy. I think it was smart for Trump to be there.
1:13:31
I
1:13:31
absolutely agree. I
1:13:32
think it was smart for her to be somewhere else. Just
1:13:35
looking at the numbers, I
1:13:36
wonder, I
1:13:36
mean, the gettable Catholics for Kamala Harris, the
1:13:40
Adam Curry: gettable Catholics are, do
1:13:42
Unknown: they really?
1:13:43
Are they really looking at the Al Smith dinner and saying, Oh,
1:13:46
my God, she's not there. They're thinking, does she like people
1:13:50
like me? That's a big question for Kamala. Does she actually
1:13:53
like people like me? Considering, like, take a
1:13:56
midwife, take a Pennsylvania voter who heard Obama say they
1:13:59
clinked their guns in their Bibles, who had Hillary Clinton
1:14:02
feel like they were very far away. Joe Biden was abortion
1:14:05
is the pivot issue for those Catholics.
1:14:07
It's not it's been what it's the Catholic schools. It is being
1:14:12
good on your economy. It is understanding family economics,
1:14:15
stuff like that, and also being relatable to working class
1:14:18
issues and not putting them down. Basically
1:14:19
the same issues that everybody
1:14:23
cultural part of it that is specifically Catholic.
1:14:26
Adam Curry: I thought that the insulting part was Mary, Mary
1:14:29
Kate that, I mean, Darren O'Neill said it best. I heard
1:14:32
him earlier during the Rock and Roll pre show. He said they
1:14:35
brought out some comedian who was on Saturday Night Live when
1:14:39
I was three. Yeah, you know, it's like, yeah, that and it's
1:14:44
just, and it all fell flat. It just it. I mean, I wanted it to
1:14:48
be funny, but it wasn't. I mean, no, it wasn't. It just wasn't
1:14:53
funny. Was not a lot of humor. Kamala
1:14:56
John C Dvorak: has no sense of humor. We talked about in the
1:14:58
last show that people who insist. Laugh for no reason.
1:15:01
Yeah, are always fearful that there's something funny going
1:15:04
on, and they don't want to be left out. And you see this with
1:15:08
all kinds of people, they just laugh, but no inappropriately.
1:15:13
Yeah, and, and Kamala, with that ridiculous giggle she throws in
1:15:19
at the end of everything, thinking maybe she said
1:15:21
something funny. She doesn't know. She's got no sense of
1:15:24
humor. Most of the people that thought Trump's bit was not
1:15:28
funny at all. It was dark. It wasn't dark. It wasn't even
1:15:32
close to being dark. No. So what are you gonna do? You got a
1:15:38
humorless group of people that are just gonna, you know, they
1:15:41
don't get anything. They're they're just, I don't know
1:15:45
subhuman Well, in that regard,
1:15:47
Adam Curry: i Wow. No, I'm
1:15:50
John C Dvorak: sorry. Okay. Dolph, okay, I don't mean, I
1:15:55
mean, no, we lack you. They lack human compassion. Because you,
1:16:00
if you don't see humor, you have some problems. John C
1:16:04
Adam Curry: Dvorak on the apes everybody. Meanwhile, if Trump
1:16:10
does not win, I will miss him for doing stuff like this on Fox
1:16:14
and Friends,
1:16:15
Unknown: we got a six year old from Massachusetts, and he wants
1:16:18
to know about your favorite animal. This was President. My
1:16:27
name is Briar. I'm six years old. I
1:16:28
live on the farm in Massachusetts. What's your
1:16:32
favorite farm animal? Favorite farm animal?
1:16:35
I'll tell you what I love. I love cows. But if we go with
1:16:40
Kamala, you won't have any cows. I don't want to ruin this kid's
1:16:45
day. I love cows. I think they're so cute and so beautiful
1:16:51
and tasty. But according to Kamala, who's a radical left
1:16:55
lunatic, you will not have any cows anymore. So we have to go
1:16:59
to
1:17:00
Adam Curry: I love cows. Ah, this is great. There's
1:17:04
John C Dvorak: dimensionality to that comment too. Although, you
1:17:08
know, the Hindus do like cows, but
1:17:10
Adam Curry: they won't. They won't eat them. No, they won't
1:17:12
eat them. Oh, I see the dimensionality you're aiming at.
1:17:16
Interesting, the Indian vibe. And then this was, I think this
1:17:24
was at his town hall. They had a bunch of pre selected people.
1:17:31
And this was a former Green Beret who stood up, good
1:17:34
Unknown: evening, Mr. President. I'm John frankman. I was a
1:17:36
special forces Green Beret who was forced out of the military
1:17:39
because the covid 19 vaccine.
1:17:46
The Biden Harris DoD covid 19 vaccine mandate was very
1:17:50
damaging to the military. It forced 1000s and service members
1:17:54
out, and 1000s did not want to join. Now the Biden Harris DOD
1:17:58
has the lowest recruiting in modern history, and now they're
1:18:01
pushing more woke training. So how do you plan to repair the
1:18:03
military from the damage that was done, and hold military
1:18:06
leaders accountable?
1:18:08
So I want to have them come back into the military with pay. And
1:18:11
you know, they've been talking about that, but it never
1:18:13
happened. They never did what they said they were going to do.
1:18:16
They should have never been a mandate. That should have never
1:18:18
happened. You should have been given choices. We say we want
1:18:22
choice in education, and we we want a choice there too. And
1:18:26
that should have never happened. And you know, we've lost some of
1:18:29
our best people in the military too. Did you leave? Did you
1:18:32
leave? Did you ever take the vaccine? Or I never did, sir,
1:18:36
yeah. You want a choice. Yeah. You want it? Would you go back
1:18:41
in
1:18:41
if they were able to, as long as there's accountability
1:18:44
potential? Yeah, no,
1:18:45
there'll be accountability. Is right? They can fire their
1:18:48
asses. We don't want to lose this guy.
1:18:53
Adam Curry: So he's, he's definitely moving towards, Hey,
1:18:57
I just did the vaccine. I didn't mandate it. I didn't say it was
1:19:00
mandated. That's, that's going to be his, yeah, that's
1:19:02
John C Dvorak: the best he's going to be able to do. I mean,
1:19:04
he's got Kennedy hounding him. Yeah? Well,
1:19:07
Adam Curry: he's, he's doing a lot of like, Oh, what are this
1:19:09
like? Enough vaccine for a horse. They're giving it to a
1:19:12
baby. So he's out there talking about it. We had a, the big
1:19:18
Fredericksburg meetup here in town on Friday, it said a bar
1:19:23
1776 that's Jenny's bar.
1:19:26
John C Dvorak: There's a bar called 1776 Oh, yeah. Well,
1:19:29
she's
1:19:29
Adam Curry: a j6 or two, yeah. But there were actually a number
1:19:32
of j6 women there, and also December 16 women who, I
1:19:36
John C Dvorak: think they were called by the FBI.
1:19:39
Adam Curry: I'm sure there must have been a spook somewhere. It
1:19:43
was nice. Probably about 45 people. I'd say it was really
1:19:46
nice. People came from all over Texas. Some people came from
1:19:50
drove from Arizona. A lot of our favorites were there from Texas,
1:19:55
of course, Baron Scott, dirty jersey, whore, Rob, the
1:19:59
Constitution. Lawyer Tina was there was we had a very good
1:20:04
time. What was interesting is when, because I hadn't done a
1:20:07
meetup in a couple of months, I guess, to hear the horror
1:20:13
stories about vaccines in the workplace, one of our producers
1:20:20
is a compounding pharmacist in a in a hospital system, and he
1:20:27
does a lot of the chemo compounding stuff. And he, yeah,
1:20:33
that has to be customized. He falsified his own vaccine record
1:20:38
because, well, if you're a pharmacist, you can and
1:20:43
Unknown: fill it out a form. And in
1:20:45
Adam Curry: his in his department, which is relatively
1:20:48
small, three people now have cancer. And he says, I they if I
1:20:54
bring it up, you know, they just get mad. And this like no and
1:21:00
correlation is not causation, and it's unbelievable how these
1:21:05
professionals can't even see through it. Also, we had two air
1:21:11
traffic, air traffic controllers, one who got an
1:21:16
exemption, the other one, he says, I'm so mad, but yeah, I
1:21:19
got the VAX. And so I you know you, and you know me with the
1:21:23
fly boys, you know when we're talking about what's going on.
1:21:26
And I said, you so, because they actually have to move around the
1:21:29
going to it. They've gone from where they are currently.
1:21:31
They've been placed in Atlanta because Atlanta doesn't have
1:21:34
enough air traffic controllers. I think they're doing the tower.
1:21:38
And I say, Well, this is dei is they say, well, it's we don't
1:21:42
care about Dei, but these people don't qualify. They can't pass
1:21:46
the test. So they brought all these people into the program to
1:21:51
become an air traffic controller, and they're just not
1:21:53
good enough. They're dumb. And then this happened in Austin
1:21:57
tonight.
1:21:58
Unknown: The FAA investigating how a pact 737, and a Cessna
1:22:02
nearly collided head on in midair this week over Texas. You
1:22:06
want to declare near miss. Let
1:22:08
us know. American
1:22:09
Airlines Flight 2587 was making its final approach to Austin,
1:22:13
Bergstrom International Airport around 10:45am Wednesday, in
1:22:17
foggy conditions, when, according to the FAA, a single
1:22:21
engine, Cessna r1 82 unexpectedly entered the flight
1:22:25
path. This animation showing the Cessna, which, at the time, was
1:22:28
not in communication with air traffic controllers flying
1:22:32
underneath the American plane coming within 400 feet of it,
1:22:36
the American Crew alerted by the plane's traffic collision
1:22:39
avoidance system, or TCAS, the system, warning the pilots to
1:22:43
change course immediately to avoid a midair collision.
1:22:46
Did you ever see him the second time around we saw when he
1:22:48
flashed up and flew right into us?
1:22:50
There were a series of things that led up to this near midair
1:22:53
collision, but the American jet had a capability on board that
1:22:56
would warrant it, and told it to turn away from this small, light
1:23:00
civil aircraft. So at the end of the day, it was the technology
1:23:04
on board the American aircraft that saved this from becoming a
1:23:08
disaster.
1:23:10
And David, just days ago, the FAA began auditing 45 of the
1:23:14
nation's busiest airports to really understand why we're
1:23:17
seeing so many of these close calls.
1:23:19
Adam Curry: What could it be? We have no idea, but we need to do
1:23:21
an investigation. I don't understand it at all, and I this
1:23:25
report is very misleading. Okay. TCAS, oh, big deal. I mean,
1:23:29
every airplane I fly in has. TCAS, how does a 182 get into
1:23:35
your airspace without you knowing about it? I mean, that
1:23:39
that is what makes no sense. Everybody has a squawk,
1:23:42
everybody has a transponder. You're telling me there was an
1:23:45
aircraft that didn't have their transponder on, and so you're
1:23:48
not talking to them and you and you're tracking them. No, this
1:23:51
is bad air traffic control. That's what that is. It's, you
1:23:56
know? And there may be some pilots with some issues at
1:23:59
United. Maybe, I don't know, but American is American, and
1:24:03
American anyway. So on that happy note, I'd like to say in
1:24:07
the morning to you, the man who put the C, or is it a decay in
1:24:11
campaigning, say hello to my friend on the other end. Ladies
1:24:13
Gentlemen,
1:24:19
John C Dvorak: curry, the morning should see what's on the
1:24:20
ground, feet, in the air. And hello.
1:24:32
Adam Curry: 3334 2135 Go ahead. Low, go ahead and say, low.
1:24:37
We're a couple lows. Low, it's low, but they're not 200 300
1:24:42
low. They're low, but not slow. They are the trolls. They are in
1:24:45
the troll room@trollroom.io that's how you can join the live
1:24:49
stream. No agenda. Dot stream. It's 24/7 there's always
1:24:53
something going on. It's a great community. A lot of trolls who
1:24:56
came to the meet up as well. And I will be thanking some of the
1:24:58
people who gave on the spot. Donations in our donation
1:25:02
segment, it was, it was quite and again. Thank you very much.
1:25:05
Jenny, for bar 1776 and before Moon Bed and Breakfast, there
1:25:12
were a bunch of classic cars out front. Turns out this is
1:25:15
basically right near lukenbach, and this, I think, today or
1:25:19
yesterday, and today is a classic car show in lukenbach,
1:25:22
and so there were a couple of people there, and this one
1:25:24
Hispanic dude comes up to me. He's like, Hey, man, like, hey
1:25:29
in the morning. He says, What in the morning? I don't know what
1:25:33
you said, man, but I remember you from headbangers ball, and
1:25:36
he had a couple of Mustangs there, and it was good. Everyone
1:25:40
integrated very well, very nicely. You can also listen to
1:25:45
our live stream and be alerted when this takes place by using
1:25:48
one of the modern podcast apps, which you can find at podcast
1:25:50
apps.com I would recommend for live listening and the live
1:25:54
alerts, they have a new version out 1.15 fountain, fountain.fm,
1:25:59
or in your App Store for Android and iOS. Really good app, and
1:26:03
they have music on there as well. Now, value for value
1:26:06
music. So you can check that out. We are, of course, a value
1:26:09
for value program, which we pioneered. It's almost 17 years
1:26:14
ago. John, on the 26th are we celebrating our anniversary
1:26:18
right before or right after? Because the 26 is, I think a
1:26:22
Saturday
1:26:24
John C Dvorak: is obsessed. 26 when there would be there'd be
1:26:27
Sunday show, would be the 20 show, grocery show, okay, so
1:26:30
that'll
1:26:30
Adam Curry: be the anniversary show, okay, yeah. Can you
1:26:33
believe it, man, 17 years.
1:26:35
Unknown: Yeah, what?
1:26:38
Adam Curry: And we never had a fight.
1:26:39
Unknown: Speak up
1:26:43
Adam Curry: 17 years our fifth presidential cycle, and we still
1:26:46
enjoy serving you to try and help you make sense out of your
1:26:50
world by deconstructing all the nonsense in it as part of our
1:26:53
value for value, which means we give you everything for free.
1:26:58
All the value is out there. There's no premium content, no
1:27:01
firewalls, no pay walls, no hoops to jump through, no
1:27:05
specific times you have to tune in, no subscription, no ads, no
1:27:10
in fact, all you do is you send back your time, your talent or
1:27:14
your treasure, whatever the show is value to you. And we love
1:27:17
boots on the ground. We love the clip help we get. We also love
1:27:21
the treasure, and of course, we love our artists who bring us
1:27:24
great value every single show, so we can have fresh new art to
1:27:28
show and display and promote the show. And we feel it does work.
1:27:32
We want to thank our artists for episode 1704, we titled that
1:27:36
one, hello, which I haven't said yet. So far the show, I'm doing
1:27:41
really well. Yeah, you
1:27:42
John C Dvorak: did earlier. No, I
1:27:44
Adam Curry: didn't. No, I said that didn't count. That. No, I
1:27:47
did not. It was, well,
1:27:48
John C Dvorak: you know, I didn't say it counted. I said,
1:27:50
you said it now, okay, well, I
1:27:52
Adam Curry: just said it now too. But it wasn't, it wasn't
1:27:54
the context. Parker Polly, our Black Knight, brought us the
1:27:59
artwork for 1704 and this was, you know, we were looking at a
1:28:03
number of different pieces, and we hadn't even discussed the
1:28:06
topic, but then looking at it, and he originally made this as a
1:28:10
as a bat signal art, because it had the show number on it, 1704
1:28:14
a microphone in A mic stand, but landing like Elon's incredibly
1:28:21
impressive rocket being grabbed, the booster, the booster,
1:28:26
booster being grabbed by grab Zilla. Hey, you want to impress
1:28:29
me land on the moon, please. Boy, that's
1:28:34
John C Dvorak: the only I will say this, the only this piece
1:28:38
was controversial and is picked because, as you said, we never
1:28:43
even talked about that. And I said, well, and he says, You
1:28:47
know what? If they can do that like, you know, they land on the
1:28:51
moon. 1969 what was the big deal? Then the lunar module
1:28:55
Adam Curry: floated down, landed perfectly, blasted off again,
1:28:58
completely reusable. Yeah, now, but for some reason this is
1:29:03
amazing. Oh, it's amazing. Well,
1:29:06
John C Dvorak: it's because it's so big, that's the reason it's a
1:29:09
big clunker, as opposed to the cute little module. I
1:29:12
Adam Curry: mean, if you go back to one of our previous episodes,
1:29:19
and gosh, I want to say that was in the 1200s and Elam was doing
1:29:24
this. You know, these landings on on the pad at the time, I
1:29:28
said, you know, this is because they gave him the anti gravity
1:29:32
technology, and you have to be careful, because it always spins
1:29:35
up hurricanes. So the coincidence is not lost on me. I
1:29:38
mean,
1:29:40
John C Dvorak: I had two when did you Yeah? When did that come
1:29:43
to your mind? That was episode 1200 No, no, I'm saying, When
1:29:47
did that most recent iteration of the same thought here in your
1:29:52
brain? Oh, when
1:29:53
Adam Curry: someone emailed me the clip? Oh, yeah. No, what?
1:29:58
Oh, I'm sorry. You're trying to tell. Me My memory is, is not
1:30:01
good. It's failing. Okay, what? That's my new job. That's my new
1:30:09
one.
1:30:09
John C Dvorak: Okay, yeah, well, it takes over from Hello, yes,
1:30:14
Adam Curry: it was, was it our Duke of the the of the Arabian
1:30:21
Peninsula. He said, You know, I have experience with this, and
1:30:24
the best way for you to get rid of it is to just, oh yeah, say
1:30:28
it incessantly. So the idea is, I want to hurt everybody on the
1:30:34
show by saying this over and over again until I stop. No, I
1:30:37
can stop this. I have this willpower. I have, I have this
1:30:41
willpower. So thank you. Parker, Pauly, let's take a look. We
1:30:45
had. We did have some discussion over the copy machine in the
1:30:49
cornfield.
1:30:52
John C Dvorak: It was a pretty piece, but it was kind of, I
1:30:54
don't know, it just didn't quite hit the mark. And I mean, this
1:30:58
microphone landing on the mic stand is a is good,
1:31:03
Adam Curry: and it's not AI. It doesn't look like AI to me. At
1:31:05
least created, no, I don't think so.
1:31:08
John C Dvorak: I think it was one of these hybrids. I think
1:31:10
most good these, the best art is hybrid, where you do the AI to
1:31:14
do the basic I have a, you know, we always talk about, I have a
1:31:17
bonus, a little bonus clip to play. Oh, because I came up with
1:31:21
some ideas of our official no agenda. Joke writer Marty
1:31:25
Higgins sent me this, and he's been following AI music
1:31:29
creation. Oh God. And I have this. You don't have to play
1:31:32
this whole song, obviously, but this is an AI song that was
1:31:37
created based on some very interesting prompting. And this
1:31:41
is a complete AI song which brought which brought me to some
1:31:47
thinking about hybridization. But can you play this
1:31:56
Unknown: down in the hills where the silver shines bright?
1:32:00
Nicholas Carr had a partner in sight, a wily man with mischief
1:32:07
on his mind, shot his mate and justice with life. The evidence
1:32:13
was clear, but the jury was swayed. Nicholas stood there
1:32:18
feeling dismayed, not guilty. They said it was a nod and a
1:32:23
cheer, but Nicholas knew he ought to live in fear. All
1:32:28
Adam Curry: right, here's the hard man can hide from Lost
1:32:31
heavy hand. What is this song about? I don't know what this
1:32:34
topic is. It's
1:32:35
John C Dvorak: about some guy who shot his partner in a gold
1:32:37
mine or something. It's a very complex I mean, it was based on
1:32:40
on some true story. But this song, Marty sent this in saying
1:32:45
he was really impressed with the fact that it was hard to tell.
1:32:50
It was, it was a AI song. Oh, but I was thinking going back to
1:32:55
die idea of hybridization. I came up with the idea you have
1:32:59
the AI create these songs, you do the cover, take credit for
1:33:04
the writing, and do them live, and put them on an album. I
1:33:07
think you get away with, oh
1:33:09
Adam Curry: no, as as demos. I think it's very valid, because
1:33:13
they do come although, I mean, so when I listen to these AI
1:33:17
songs in general, they just sound soulless to me and people,
1:33:22
if I may. Just as a little aside, you don't need to send me
1:33:25
any funny notebook. Lm podcasts. They're all eight minutes. I
1:33:29
don't even listen to them anymore. They're too long.
1:33:32
They're too long. And people keep saying, Hey, I got some end
1:33:35
of show songs in
1:33:37
Unknown: the morning sun. Let's all begin. Alan and John play
1:33:42
the cheeky grin.
1:33:46
Adam Curry: Yeah? Of course, with Buzz and cheer, we got
1:33:49
stories that you wanted, yeah?
1:33:52
John C Dvorak: And the reason you could tell the AI is
1:33:54
because, unlike our guys who create all this stuff for us,
1:33:57
the guy's actually in tune. So there is that element
1:34:01
immediately a giveaway.
1:34:04
Adam Curry: But, and I'm like, you know,
1:34:06
John C Dvorak: not singing off key there, no, no. That's like,
1:34:09
Adam Curry: I appreciate you did it, but I'm not gonna play this.
1:34:11
It's, it's, it's not good. It's just not good. If there was, I
1:34:16
didn't,
1:34:16
John C Dvorak: wish I played the whole thing. I just wasn't. I
1:34:17
thought it was good, and I thought the use of the banjo was
1:34:21
good. I thought it was a very I think you could fool somebody
1:34:24
with this, this song, this, my thinking is more of the
1:34:28
hybridization idea, where you have the AI do it, you cover it,
1:34:31
you take credit for the writing. It's all done on the side. You
1:34:34
would never know next thing you know you and I think that's what
1:34:37
we're getting with the best art to bring it back around in a
1:34:42
Trumpian way. I
1:34:43
Adam Curry: see the weave, you're doing the weave, I'm
1:34:45
doing
1:34:45
John C Dvorak: the weave. And so you get, you bring it back to
1:34:47
the art is. So the best art has been hybrid design, hybridized
1:34:52
by the artist who takes the AI piece and then adds, and I think
1:34:57
that that microphone was one of them. So a
1:34:59
Adam Curry: couple. Things. One, when you create it with Sumo, it
1:35:03
even says you now have the rights to this song and you can
1:35:07
publish it. Two, the little tricky bit of what you said is
1:35:10
cover it. You know, that's where it gets a little more difficult.
1:35:14
Cover it. It's not everybody can play and sing, you know? It's
1:35:19
just no, well, that's,
1:35:20
John C Dvorak: I mean, I can't do it, cover it, okay, so I'm
1:35:24
thinking of somebody who can, I mean, there are bands out there
1:35:27
that are specialized in coverage, doing cover songs,
1:35:30
because they can do it Sure. There are people with perfect
1:35:32
pitch. There are people that can play anything. You just play it
1:35:35
once, and then they can play it. I know these guys. I know a
1:35:38
number of them personally. They can listen and repeat. And those
1:35:43
are the guys who could take advantage of this situation.
1:35:47
Yeah, great if they wanted to, like
1:35:49
Adam Curry: everybody else except Taylor Swift. They too
1:35:51
can make no money on Spotify. So, you
1:35:54
John C Dvorak: know, we can maybe assume that some of Taylor
1:35:57
Swift's material is created like this, because maybe, although I
1:36:02
think it would be better if it was so I'm maybe I'm wrong. But
1:36:05
again,
1:36:05
Adam Curry: there's no money in music. No one is making money in
1:36:09
music, except Taylor and a few Spotify. Spotify speaking. No.
1:36:15
Spotify is barely making money. It's the publisher companies.
1:36:18
And what the publishing companies do is they, they go to
1:36:21
archive.org and sue them for $600 million because some songs
1:36:26
got scooped up in the archive. That's how money's made today in
1:36:29
the music business and the and the the blanket licenses to the
1:36:33
social media companies. That's how that's where the money is
1:36:38
nowhere else.
1:36:42
John C Dvorak: Well, Dad gum it
1:36:45
Adam Curry: there go there goes. Your great idea every Go ahead.
1:36:48
Everybody put all the effort into it. Now, value for value,
1:36:52
John C Dvorak: that's the only thing you can do. Yeah,
1:36:56
Adam Curry: well, it all sucks, and that, that song sucked. That
1:36:59
was, if you think that just because there's a banjo, it's a
1:37:02
good country song, and, no, no, I don't think it was any good.
1:37:07
That's just my I mean, what do I know about the music business?
1:37:10
John C Dvorak: Well, at this point in your age, oh, oh, don't
1:37:13
Adam Curry: start. Don't start, because I know a lot, and I can,
1:37:18
I can smell a hit from a mile away. That was not one, even for
1:37:23
the country boys. The troll room was going nuts. Okay, hey, let's
1:37:30
thank some people who sent us some treasure for the value for
1:37:33
value, which we appreciate long notes today, but as the notes
1:37:39
were too long, notes were rather long. We will read them, of
1:37:43
course, as we do with our executive and Associate
1:37:45
Executive producers,
1:37:46
John C Dvorak: but they're too long. Yeah, they're too
1:37:49
Adam Curry: long, yeah, but people have a lot to say as we
1:37:51
get closer to our 17th anniversary, and the notes are
1:37:54
nice. They're, you know, they are complimentary. So no,
1:37:57
Unknown: I appreciate it. I
1:37:58
Adam Curry: appreciate you. Can keep them a little shorter. We
1:38:01
appreciate it. And today we have we have a very rare show number
1:38:05
donation, which we start off with from Daniel Eckert in
1:38:09
Bernie, Texas. Go Texas. 1705. Very nice. You have to admit,
1:38:16
very nice. Say it, they very say, What do you go to the
1:38:20
bathroom already, just because, you know
1:38:22
John C Dvorak: it's a lot. I'm going to get the note that's
1:38:24
coming up. It's on the other desk. If you don't mind
1:38:27
Adam Curry: ITM gentlemen. Please accept the attached
1:38:29
donation of $1,705 please. I need a deduct. You've been
1:38:37
deduced. I haven't donated since being granted Associate
1:38:40
Executive Producer for show 163 so he this is a makeup for sure,
1:38:47
as a one time donor and a long time boner. I'm also asking for
1:38:51
a second deducing as 1542 shows since my last donation requires
1:38:56
that I double down on some karma as my douchebaggery has
1:38:59
approached governmental you've been deduced. I also want to
1:39:05
call out those freeloading bastards who are listening. Open
1:39:08
up your wallets, purses, encrypted keys or coupon books,
1:39:11
and share some love for no agenda. Thank you, John and
1:39:14
Adam, for restoring my faith in something I cannot state enough
1:39:17
how awesome it feels to know that I'm not just a tampon
1:39:21
string that the media tugs on as they dump their bull crap on my
1:39:24
head. That's a very interesting visual I got there. I didn't
1:39:28
like it as a new Knight, and soon to be Baronet, I would like
1:39:32
to be known as Sir April of May. One day I will claim a
1:39:35
territory. But for now, I am happy with this small donation
1:39:39
and can help produce the best podcast in the universe. I
1:39:41
request some maple syrup and bacon at my swearing in. I'm a
1:39:45
very strong believer in paying it forward, so please play Gitmo
1:39:48
nation, national anthem that's too long to play right now, and
1:39:52
we do. Maybe I could put it in the end of show mix for you.
1:39:55
That would actually work out okay. He would also like. Just
1:40:00
send your cash. And he would like two taps to the head. To
1:40:06
the head. Yes, we got that for the boners out there that hit
1:40:09
people in the mouth, but don't have the means to make a
1:40:11
donation. Daniel Eckert from South Texas, I know a lot of
1:40:14
people want to send blankets or water. Just send your cash now
1:40:19
before we go to the next one. John, I have $1,000 which came
1:40:23
in cash at the meetup in Chris, $100 bills from anonymous. ITM
1:40:31
in the interest of brevity, my only requests are to be deduced.
1:40:37
You've been deduced. Tend to receive a generous helping of
1:40:40
Yak karma, may I please assume the title of dame, Cabernet of
1:40:44
Horseshoe Bay. Thank you for keeping us sane while wildly
1:40:49
entertained. And that's it, from our from our anonymous assumed
1:40:53
to be dame. Thank you so much.
1:40:55
Unknown: You've got karma.
1:41:02
John C Dvorak: I see what you're doing.
1:41:03
Adam Curry: Yeah, that's what I'm doing,
1:41:05
John C Dvorak: sir. Charles in Thornton, Colorado, $500.33 Adam
1:41:10
and John, congrats on 17 years, gentlemen. I recently occurred
1:41:13
to me that I have been listening for a round.
1:41:16
Adam Curry: You missed a Buell John, Buell Vista, oh, yeah, you
1:41:20
skipped over one, Ah, there you go.
1:41:22
John C Dvorak: Forget what I said. Ron buells up. He's in
1:41:26
Vista California, and he came with 60106 which is even more.
1:41:32
This is the unofficial, official with your blessing. No agenda,
1:41:35
couples donation, 60106 is a couples is something. They think
1:41:41
that. And I don't know, you know, I can make some lewd
1:41:44
comment
1:41:44
Adam Curry: about this. Let's not, Oh, I see what it looks
1:41:49
like. Okay, I got it. Never mind.
1:41:51
John C Dvorak: It comes in two variety, small boobs and big
1:41:55
boobs. Okay, sorry. People can write 60106, and figure out our
1:42:00
gag. Sorry, fellas, we got only one designation. I would like to
1:42:05
transfer $60.94 of this donation of my smoking hot wife, Dame
1:42:10
liberty, Mom of homestead studies in California. She is a
1:42:16
sustaining donor, sharing her small boobs once a month for the
1:42:19
past 33 months. Okay, I'm sure she appreciates that comment,
1:42:24
for the past 33 months, so it only seems appropriate to help
1:42:28
get her to exactly $3,000 bringing her to Baroness status.
1:42:32
Oh, nice. She's, I think she's on the upgradation she is. I
1:42:37
need to stop, step up my game, and I will reserve the balance
1:42:41
of my donation to myself, which makes me a Commodore, as well as
1:42:46
making me eligible for this for a seat at the round table. So
1:42:50
he's good doubles. He's double double duty here. Please Knight
1:42:54
me sir, A, F, A and Beck of the Schiff wood forest. He's in the
1:43:01
area of Adam Schiff, where he is in Vista, good. Maybe this is a
1:43:07
tribute to some of the greats who ultimately led me to this
1:43:10
show. Hint, this is a Tom Woods donation. There's all already
1:43:17
plenty of at the round table, so he doesn't want a food. No
1:43:20
jingles, no karma. Okay.
1:43:25
Unknown: Time was donation. Then
1:43:28
Adam Curry: we go to Sir Charles. Did
1:43:29
John C Dvorak: that come?
1:43:30
Adam Curry: I don't know it showed up, Sir Charles from
1:43:33
Thornton, Colorado, $500.33 Adam and John refer to him. Congrats
1:43:38
on 17 years, gentlemen. It recently occurred to me that
1:43:41
I've been listening for around half of the show's existence,
1:43:44
yet I still feel like I missed out a great deal on the first
1:43:47
eight and a half years. Hey, you can you can find it at no agenda
1:43:50
show.net. You can listen to the art. Don't bother. Please accept
1:43:54
this 533 donation for a Commodore title if it pleases
1:43:57
the peerage committee. I would like to change my title from Sir
1:44:00
Charles of the coin operated laundromat to a shorter version
1:44:03
with a new title, Sir Charles commodore of the coin. It will
1:44:06
be so also, Please grant my weight my wife, Dame Courtney,
1:44:10
and me house buying and selling karma, as well as baby growing
1:44:17
karma for Dame Courtney, who was very pregnant with our third
1:44:20
human resource within the next 10 days, we will one, close on
1:44:23
our new house. Two, move. Three, witness the birth of our child,
1:44:26
and four, put our house on the market. What a sequence.
1:44:30
Finally, please add our first human resource, Moira to the
1:44:33
birthday list. She's turning four November 3. Thank you for
1:44:35
your courage, sir. Charles commodore of the coin FKA, sir,
1:44:39
Charles of the coin operated laundromats
1:44:43
Unknown: you've got
1:44:48
Adam Curry: karma, and that will cover your house buying and
1:44:52
selling karma as well. Now
1:44:54
John C Dvorak: we have the best note of this group, sir, Matt.
1:44:58
He's in Melbourne, Australia. Oh, yeah, 500 Viscount of
1:45:02
Victoria, soon to be Commodore. No jingles, no karma. Thank you
1:45:06
for your courage.
1:45:07
Adam Curry: Excellent. Becky Steele, no Becky Skeel. Becky
1:45:11
Steele is a DJ name Becky Skeel, everybody, Saipan. Saipan.
1:45:18
Saipan. That's, uh, where's Saipan is, that it's on site.
1:45:22
It's
1:45:22
John C Dvorak: an island Saipan.
1:45:23
Adam Curry: It's just the island of Saipan. I
1:45:26
John C Dvorak: don't know the details, but I do know that the
1:45:28
guy who computer land wanted to set up shop there for some
1:45:33
reason, and there's some scandalous situation, I think,
1:45:36
well, Saipan
1:45:37
Adam Curry: isn't that where Bruce Springsteen wound up, born
1:45:39
in the USA,
1:45:42
John C Dvorak: one of the Americans where he's going to go
1:45:44
Trump gets elected.
1:45:45
Adam Curry: Hi, John and Adam, I had plans to make an executive
1:45:47
produced donation honor of my smoking hot husband's birthday,
1:45:50
November. But given his affinity for all things wind and waves, I
1:45:53
couldn't pass up the opportunity to make him a Commodore as well.
1:45:56
Please grant him the title of Commodore Big Boss Rob Jordan,
1:45:59
in honor of his 44th birthday, with love from his wife and
1:46:03
three, soon to be, four, human resources, I hope he knows it,
1:46:08
he would like to call out any cihs or CSPs in no agenda nation
1:46:12
who haven't donated as douchebags. What's a C i h or
1:46:17
CSP?
1:46:19
John C Dvorak: C i, h or CSP. I wonder what I have no idea.
1:46:23
Adam Curry: And as a shameless plug, because our company paid
1:46:25
for this donation for all your environmental health and safety
1:46:28
consulting needs in the western Pacific, please check out
1:46:31
coeths.com that's k, O, A, E, h, s.com and thank you for
1:46:37
continuing to keep us sane in this insane world. Cheers to
1:46:40
1700 episodes, 17 years and to never finding an exit strategy,
1:46:46
73 y'all. Becky Skeel on the mic, Thank you, Becky.

in Manassas actually $500 Good afternoon. John and Adam, I've
1:46:59
been listening to your show for a long time, and have made a
1:47:02
small donation in the past, but never enough to have a message
1:47:06
read. I will be celebrating my 33rd trip around the sun, code
1:47:09
word on Saturday the 19th. And I thought it would be the perfect
1:47:14
time to make a donation like this. During this promotion, I
1:47:18
would like to be known as Commodore Kevin and we want to
1:47:21
remind people that you go to no agenda rings.com and tell us,
1:47:25
put the information in there with an mailing address so you
1:47:28
can get your certificate with alacrity.
1:47:32
Adam Curry: I wanted to mention as a short interment here based
1:47:36
on the no agenda show, Dr Scott. We know Dr Scott. He does all
1:47:40
the chapter art for the modern podcast apps. His seven year old
1:47:45
daughter, Lucy, just passed her Technician exam.
1:47:50
John C Dvorak: Now that tells you something, she is
1:47:52
Adam Curry: now officially a ham. How is that cool? Or what a
1:47:56
John C Dvorak: seven year old ham and other people can't do
1:47:59
it,
1:47:59
Adam Curry: and I'm I have the honor of sending her her first
1:48:04
rig, and I'm very excited to hear her on the on the air. We
1:48:10
continue with congratulations. Lucy, great job. John B is in
1:48:14
Baton Rouge, Louisiana, $500 in the morning. Listener, for one
1:48:17
year, first time donor. I couldn't miss the Commodore
1:48:20
promotion. Can I be known as Commodore sloop? John B Well, of
1:48:24
course. Can I have a deduction and a Trump, they're eating the
1:48:27
dogs. Love you guys. Four more years,
1:48:31
Unknown: you've been deduced they're eating the dogs.
1:48:38
John C Dvorak: Jean Harris in Winter Park Florida, 500 ITM
1:48:43
fellas, Commodore donation. I wanted to make sure I was
1:48:46
recently, was in, I was recently in Tromso Norway, and stopped by
1:48:51
the troll Museum in downtown Tromso,
1:48:54
Adam Curry: a troll museum cool.
1:48:58
John C Dvorak: I was disappointed they did not have a
1:49:00
section for the no agenda trolls, right? You may want to
1:49:05
contact them and see what can be added. Thanks so much for the
1:49:09
for providing some context to this crazy year. We're going
1:49:13
through no jingles, no karma.
1:49:15
Adam Curry: Milan janovich in Belgrade, that's in Serbia. Yes,
1:49:23
in Serbia. Oh man, we are bad. We are worldwide. In the
1:49:28
morning, Dear John and Adam, I've been following the best
1:49:31
podcast in the universe for a long time, since around episode
1:49:34
number 50, and my amygdala has remained nice and shrunken for
1:49:38
many happy years. I've managed to contribute to the show with
1:49:41
only few anonymous donations so far, but now I am finally in the
1:49:45
position to change that with becoming executive producer and
1:49:48
Commodore. Therefore I request a deducing for me and for my
1:49:53
beautiful and supportive wife, Vanessa, you've been deduced. I
1:49:58
can give advice so. Fellow producers who still have not
1:50:01
onboarded their significant others, that couples that listen
1:50:04
to no agenda together have stronger connection and a more
1:50:07
fulfilling relationship. I hear the sex is better too. Please
1:50:11
play the clips. There's no winning North Korean. News,
1:50:14
later news, Lady Announcer And don't ref. No karma. But I would
1:50:18
appreciate if you mention us and our kids, Mihailo and Gavrilo.
1:50:23
In your prayers, Consider it done. I hope that all your exit
1:50:26
strategies fail and you two go on with the show for many more
1:50:30
years, from Milan yovanovich in Belgrade Serbia,
1:50:34
Unknown: don't laugh. Why you are laughing? Shut up.
1:50:41
Shut up.
1:50:42
Oh, there's no winning. We don't like to foster a competitive
1:50:45
atmosphere, but we laugh a lot now. Everyone hug and share a
1:50:49
secret. The
1:50:50
Adam Curry: Korean lady failed. What happened to the Korean
1:50:53
where's the Korean lady? No, no, the Korean lady. The Korean lady
1:50:55
is this, but she that's
1:50:57
Unknown: the Korean
1:50:59
Adam Curry: that's the Korean that's the Korean lady. There
1:51:02
she is. Yeah,
1:51:04
John C Dvorak: the next donation blows out my spreadsheet. You
1:51:06
have to read the note, yeah.
1:51:07
Adam Curry: This is from Sir R Daniels colsonick, New Jersey.
1:51:14
ITM gentlemen. I use that term loosely. Really, it's been a
1:51:18
while since I've attended a meet up. While this meetup was
1:51:20
somewhat smaller than a normal the normal, a great time was
1:51:23
had, and look forward to the next one. No agenda. Meetup site
1:51:25
is a bit wonky, as we all know. So it's at Garden State
1:51:29
distillery in Toms River New Jersey on November 2, starting
1:51:31
at 2pm also, here's my Commodore donation. No jingles. He says
1:51:37
karma for all. And he did add a nice little update. As you know,
1:51:41
he was the really, I think he was the chief operations officer
1:51:46
for a bit during the Project Veritas fracas and the upset.
1:51:52
And yes, he was an executive there, yes, and he resigned. He
1:51:55
says, I'm not involved in the organization, but James is
1:51:57
looking to get me and my other officers or board members on
1:52:00
camera in depositions. I will report back after my deposition
1:52:04
on November 18, and he says that he and a lot of his other ex
1:52:09
Project Veritas colleagues are still out there fighting the
1:52:12
good fight. Well, we appreciate that. We appreciate that you're
1:52:15
doing that. And he asked for some jobs karma for all who need
1:52:17
it. So let's hand it over, jobs,
1:52:19
Unknown: jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's vote for jobs.
1:52:27
John C Dvorak: He's one of the many insiders that we have here
1:52:31
on the no agenda podcast
1:52:32
Adam Curry: on the ground we're outrageous baby.
1:52:36
John C Dvorak: Tracy Smith is up. She's from Prescott,
1:52:38
Arizona. She came in with 500 bucks, and what's the title
1:52:42
commodore of the port of Arizona? Nice. And then play the
1:52:46
jingle. Due to climate change, due
1:52:49
Unknown: to climate change.
1:52:52
Adam Curry: You got it. Sir Stephen is a meridian Idaho. 500
1:52:56
me and Lionel Richie, sir Steven, protector of the Bighorn
1:52:59
basin. Have no idea what that means, but we got you
1:53:05
John C Dvorak: now. We have Nora Neva from Livonia, Michigan, who
1:53:08
came in with a check for 500 made herself a Commodore, and
1:53:12
she sent a note, very harsh paper. She has very nice
1:53:17
printing, and she has an I want to send you a copy of this
1:53:21
eventually. Sue. We discussed this anomaly that you run into
1:53:25
with with she is a Gen Z, the V and the R is the exact same. Oh,
1:53:35
so it drifts off a little bit. I talked to Jay about this. It's
1:53:39
very interesting, okay, and she writes in Hello, Zionist shills,
1:53:45
Unknown: hello
1:53:47
John C Dvorak: doesn't count Gen Z. Listener here, everything you
1:53:52
boys say about our generation is true, besides the few of us that
1:54:00
are sharp, sharp. Thanks to the best podcast in the universe.
1:54:05
Shout out to my dad, Scott uh Neva and his douchebag friend,
1:54:10
Dave tarian, douchebag.
1:54:13
Adam Curry: Oh douchebag for
1:54:16
John C Dvorak: hitting me in the mouth. Thanks for keeping me
1:54:18
sane in these insane times. My amygdala is screwed if I only
1:54:23
get four more years of premium content. PS, PS, John, I have a
1:54:29
blue heeler kettle dog that lunges and the bungee leash tip
1:54:34
works wonders. It's the best, the best. Thanks for the
1:54:37
constant laughs. Can I get a they're eating the dogs from
1:54:41
JCD. Oh, and get to get this for an interesting combo random
1:54:49
number thing due to climate change. Jingle,
1:54:53
Adam Curry: wow, that's coincidence. Okay, hit it.
1:54:57
John C Dvorak: They're eating the dogs
1:54:59
Unknown: due to climate. Change.
1:55:01
Adam Curry: Nice combo. Nice, very nice combo. All right, we
1:55:07
move to Mike salibo. Mike from Michigan, Clinton Township. He
1:55:13
is the wooden watch guy. Dear John and Adam. I want to thank
1:55:16
all my fellow producers for the amazing support they gave the ax
1:55:19
head watchmakers going out of business. Sale. It's been very
1:55:23
bittersweet. It has certainly helped Dame Kelly and I out of
1:55:26
financial out of a financial bind as well. We sold about half
1:55:29
the remaining stock, so we still have half left promo code. ITM
1:55:33
is still cranked up now from 20% to 33% my website, ax head
1:55:40
watch, dot shop expires on the 25th if I can keep it open till
1:55:44
Christmas, I will. But the hosting company seems to want to
1:55:47
make me renew for a full year, which doesn't make much sense.
1:55:50
So get your wooden watches now, folks. PS, I realized I
1:55:54
shortchange you for a penny for my promotion to Barrow. So I add
1:55:57
Baron. So I added two pennies to my 333 dot 33 indeed, he has
1:56:01
333. Dot, 35 one to cover the difference and one for interest
1:56:05
on the loan. Jobs and health. Karma, please, jobs,
1:56:09
Unknown: jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's go for jobs.
1:56:15
Adam Curry: Karma and I have another meetup donation before
1:56:19
John C Dvorak: you go to the other one, I want to mention
1:56:21
that these watches are quite nice. Adam and oh yeah, no,
1:56:23
they're great. They're great as a great conversation piece.
1:56:26
Adam Curry: So Gordon, Gordon Gibson from Kerrville, he was
1:56:29
the meetup. Now, this guy, he used to be an audio engineer,
1:56:35
and he started doing scratch tracks while he was setting up
1:56:40
for voiceovers. He has now been a guy doing voiceovers for 20
1:56:45
years, many national spots. In fact, apparently, I just
1:56:51
remembered he told me this during covid, when everyone was
1:56:55
like, they're making all these really, you know, like, like,

2:01:38
both of you for your courage and dedication to keeping us safe
2:01:41
from the M 5m I started listening to no agenda after the
2:01:44
crazy times post covid has been refreshing to hear all the media
2:01:47
deconstruction that you do. I'm glad I'm not the only one that
2:01:49
thought the M 5m was crazy. This note is a donation given to Adam
2:01:53
at the Fredericksburg no agenda meetup, which was my second
2:01:56
these meetups are fantastic, and it's always great to connect
2:01:59
with other producers. No agenda truly has the best producers for
2:02:02
the best podcast in the universe. Since I discovered the
2:02:05
show, I've hit my wife and best friend in the mouth, as well as
2:02:08
a few other friends. Adam, I want to thank you for playing my
2:02:10
in the morning clip on episode 1551, back in 2023 It was
2:02:15
awesome to hear you play my in the morning radio calls to Oh, I
2:02:19
think this my in the morning radio calls to pilots as they
2:02:23
were checking into my sec. This one of the this is one of the
2:02:27
classics. The ATC is what ATC guys and he wants up you talk
2:02:33
about your random number theory. He wants they're eating the dogs
2:02:37
and due to climate change, jeez. Isn't that interesting?
2:02:42
Unknown: They're eating the dogs due
2:02:44
to climate change, and he
2:02:45
Adam Curry: has a birthday shout out to himself. He'll be turning
2:02:47
34 on october 26 Thank you, Michael, appreciate it.
2:02:51
John C Dvorak: So we haven't played due to climate change
2:02:54
ever, ever forever, and today we have three requests for it. Out
2:02:59
of
2:02:59
Adam Curry: the blue, it's on their mind. Man, it's on their

2:03:04
John C Dvorak: else is on their mind? Is Linda Lou patkin, our
2:03:07
final Associate Executive Producer. She's in Lakewood,

2:03:45
executive job search and resumes. So congratulations when

2:04:38
due to climate change.
2:04:42
Adam Curry: No agenda, donations.com and again, these
2:04:45
credits are recognized by any place that does show business
2:04:51
credits that includes imdb.com, I would like to play a couple of
2:04:57
clips here regarding NATO and I'm. Not sure if this is NATO
2:05:02
getting everything ready for Trump to come in, or what
2:05:06
exactly is happening, but there's a lot of fear mongering.
2:05:11
This is based upon President zelenskyy Victory plan, which
2:05:16
was basically put me in NATO man Zelensky
2:05:21
Unknown: has been in Belgium drumming up support among
2:05:23
European Union and NATO allies. By
2:05:25
Adam Curry: the way, this is the AI voice again, this is France
2:05:27
24 using an AI voice
2:05:30
Unknown: military aid to rebuff the Russian invasion. He warned
2:05:35
that Russia has been receiving its own foreign aid
2:05:38
from our intelligence. We've got information that North Korea
2:05:41
sent technical personnel and offices to Ukraine on temporary
2:05:46
occupied territories, and they are preparing on their land,
2:05:50
10,000 soldiers, but they didn't move them already to Ukraine or
2:05:55
to Russia.
2:05:56
Zelensky has been selling what he calls his victory plan to end
2:06:00
the war in Ukraine. Major points of the plan include permission
2:06:04
to use Western supplied longer range missiles to strike
2:06:07
military targets deep inside Russia, as well as an invitation
2:06:11
for Ukraine to join NATO, steps that have been met with
2:06:14
reluctance by kyiv's allies so far. Nonetheless, the NATO chief
2:06:20
said that eventual Ukrainian accession is inevitable.
2:06:23
I've spoken of last few weeks,
2:06:25
Adam Curry: all allies, all the Allies have been to me in my
2:06:28
office there
2:06:29
Unknown: is absolutely, we will massively, massively make sure
2:06:34
that Ukraine has what it needs to fight the war, against the
2:06:38
war. We will continue doing that. And if anyone in the
2:06:40
Kremlin will think that by showing division, we will stop
2:06:44
this, no, this will not happen, and Ukraine will be member of
2:06:49
NATO. There is no doubt about no doubt about it. NATO
2:06:51
partners have been reluctant to invite Ukraine to join while
2:06:54
fighting is ongoing. Ukraine's membership could trigger NATO
2:06:59
security guarantee, thus dragging supporting countries
2:07:03
into the war with Russia.
2:07:04
Adam Curry: So the idea here is, let's get them into they're
2:07:08
probably going to do some kind of conditional membership,
2:07:11
anything to be able to expand the war to go against Russia.
2:07:16
What is not mentioned? I did have a chance to read through
2:07:19
the victory plan. The what Zelensky is saying is, if we
2:07:27
can't join NATO, our only option is to acquire nuclear weapons,
2:07:35
which, okay, that sounds kind of nefarious and and I have a how
2:07:43
they
2:07:43
John C Dvorak: let it? How do they these guys let this twerp
2:07:47
Adam Curry: threaten them? Like threaten who? This is the plan,
2:07:51
the
2:07:51
John C Dvorak: threat. Look, I'm going to use nukes, and
2:07:53
everyone's going to be des you blowed up if they if you don't
2:07:57
do what I want. No, this is give me more money. This is just
2:08:00
Adam Curry: a setup. This is just a setup. This is what NATO
2:08:02
wants. You heard you heard Rita. They will be a member of NATO.
2:08:07
This is a fact. And Putin is saying you should probably not
2:08:12
think about getting nuclear weapons. During
2:08:15
Unknown: a meeting with media representatives from BRICS
2:08:17
nations, Russian President Vladimir, Putin expressed
2:08:20
Moscow's willingness to engage in discussions aimed at
2:08:23
resolving the conflict in Ukraine. This is another
2:08:27
provocation. It is not difficult to create nuclear weapons in
2:08:31
modern world. Yeah, we
2:08:33
Adam Curry: know Iran will have it any day. Now, I do not know
2:08:36
any
2:08:36
Unknown: week whether Ukraine is capable of doing this. Now, it
2:08:41
is not so simple for today's Ukraine, but in general, there
2:08:45
are no big difficulties here. Everything is clear how it is
2:08:50
done. This is a dangerous provocation, because, of course,
2:08:55
any steps in this direction will be met with an appropriate
2:08:58
reaction. Ukraine. Ukrainian president volodmy Zelensky
2:09:04
indicated that Ukraine might pursue nuclear armament if it
2:09:08
does not receive NATO membership. He conveyed to
2:09:11
European Union leaders that Kyiv requires a robust deterrent to
2:09:15
counter Russian aggression. So
2:09:17
Adam Curry: this is this is not a message to threaten. This is a
2:09:20
message from the military industrial complex. Shore it up,
2:09:23
people. And they have their little spokes lady, Ruta, to do
2:09:27
their
2:09:28
John C Dvorak: work. And before you continue, if Ruta comes on
2:09:32
and says you're going to be a member, you know, take it or
2:09:35
leave it, you're going to be a member. What's the point of the
2:09:37
threat then?
2:09:38
Adam Curry: Because we don't know exactly, then it will
2:09:41
happen what we have
2:09:42
Unknown: said in Washington, and of course, I will constantly
2:09:45
repeat the language, but I think it was significant, the
2:09:47
irreversible path to NATO membership. So that means that,
2:09:50
yes, in the future, NATO will have as a 32 or 34th member, we
2:09:56
will have Ukraine,
2:09:57
Adam Curry: who else is coming in you? There's more coming. At
2:10:01
Unknown: the moment, it seems that it will be Ukraine as
2:10:04
number 33 but maybe somebody else pops in front of him.
2:10:07
Number
2:10:07
Adam Curry: 33 someone, someone else, someone else will pop in
2:10:10
front of him. He is number 33 someone else will pop in front
2:10:14
of him.
2:10:14
Unknown: But UK the magic number exactly, a member of NATO in the
2:10:18
future. That is what we decided in Washington. So the question
2:10:21
is not about the timeline. What we are doing now with the
2:10:24
pledge, pledge on track with what we are doing in Wiesbaden,
2:10:28
the command, what we are doing is all the bilateral aid going
2:10:32
into Ukraine, at the moment, all the efforts being coordinated
2:10:36
amongst allies to work on the reconstruction of Ukraine. Yes,
2:10:39
bring your money the fact that we have now J tech in Poland. J
2:10:44
tech, oh, what is J tech, which is working on the
2:10:47
interoperability of Ukraine with NATO,
2:10:51
Adam Curry: our bullets will fit in their guns. This
2:10:54
collectively, plus
2:10:55
Unknown: all the national security guarantees bilaterally
2:10:58
with Ukraine, they collectively constitute a bridge, a bridge
2:11:02
NATO membership. So then the question is exactly about when I
2:11:06
cannot answer that now at this moment, but clearly it is. We
2:11:10
are working on all these tracks to make sure that indeed, one
2:11:13
day there will be member of NATO. Yes, the
2:11:16
Adam Curry: J tech is jagov Tech. The only other person who
2:11:21
might pop in front of him, even though they're nowhere near us,
2:11:25
could possibly be South Korea. I'm thinking, because North
2:11:29
Korea is now basically in this war. South Korean
2:11:33
Unknown: intelligence has released these satellite images
2:11:36
claiming to show North Korean personnel gathered at a Russian
2:11:39
military facility in Khabarovsk. The spy agency believes North
2:11:43
Korea has already started sending troops to fight with
2:11:46
Russia in Ukraine, saying 1500 soldiers have already started
2:11:50
training. This
2:11:51
Adam Curry: sounds like some horse crap to me. No
2:11:54
John C Dvorak: kidding, but you know, when I heard this, Mimi
2:11:57
brought it up to me, and I said, This is bull crap. For one
2:12:01
thing, it's just bull crap. I mean, whether North Koreans
2:12:04
gonna go, they're gonna haul their ass all the way down to
2:12:06
Ukraine to fight for the Russians and not not defect, I
2:12:11
mean, or, I mean, the whole thing is, it's the most
2:12:14
ludicrous scenario I've ever heard. I mean, it's as bad as
2:12:18
well. And you know, the Russians can't make any armaments. So the
2:12:20
North Koreans, the North Koreans seem to be doing so much work
2:12:23
and then sending personnel to go. Why are they a poor country?
2:12:26
It doesn't make sense.
2:12:28
Adam Curry: The only thing I could think of is maybe they'll
2:12:31
have South Korea join NATO. I mean, it makes no sense, but
2:12:35
none of this. No, I
2:12:36
John C Dvorak: think, I think what you just I never thought of
2:12:38
that angle, but that could be, because they have talked about
2:12:42
Japan and the Asian countries, all of a sudden becoming part of
2:12:45
NATO, which I think we ridiculed about a year ago, and this was
2:12:49
brought up because it's North Atlantic Treaty Organization.
2:12:53
These guys aren't in the North Atlantic,
2:12:55
Adam Curry: no, but they have lots of cooperation with NATO.
2:12:59
There's lots of that, certainly in 2022, lots of things were
2:13:02
happening.
2:13:04
John C Dvorak: Then the, you know, this NATO thing is a is a
2:13:07
threat to world peace. So then
2:13:10
Adam Curry: the other thing that is happening, which I have two
2:13:13
clips on, is the bricks. The bricks have a big summit taking
2:13:17
place. Now. They had the pre summit this weekend, and
2:13:20
everything kicks off this I think tomorrow and Tuesday,
2:13:23
Russia's President
2:13:24
Unknown: Vladimir Putin says the BRICS group will generate most
2:13:28
of the global economic growth in the coming years due to its size
2:13:31
and relatively fast growth. He was speaking at the bloc's
2:13:34
Business Forum, which comes ahead of the BRICS summit, which
2:13:37
gets underway in Russia on Tuesday. Water bricks. The work
2:13:43
of bricks is not aimed against anyone. It's aimed only at one
2:13:47
general task, the sustainable development and flourishing of
2:13:50
our countries and people. It's a message that was welcomed by
2:13:56
participants who see a lot of opportunities for their
2:13:59
businesses in the BRICS countries. Here
2:14:01
Adam Curry: comes the South African delegate. The
2:14:03
opportunity for
2:14:06
Unknown: South Africa and for the African continent that is
2:14:09
presented by BRICS is absolutely massive. South Africa has
2:14:14
already seen
2:14:15
growth in trade because of our presence in BRICS,
2:14:21
Egypt has here's Egypt, so many projects within Africa. So
2:14:26
collaborative, cooperation with BRICS member states to do
2:14:31
projects in infrastructure with Egyptian companies is a benefit.
2:14:35
Win, win for both sides. Egypt imports 50% of its food, where
2:14:39
BRICS is one of the main supplier facing
2:14:42
isolation over Russia's actions in Ukraine. Putin hopes BRICS
2:14:46
will be a powerful counterweight to the West in both global trade
2:14:49
and politics.
2:14:51
Adam Curry: So what most people are interested in, what I'm
2:14:53
interested in, is the BRICS monetary system they be talking
2:14:57
about, which supposedly is going to be a bad. Basket of 40% gold
2:15:03
backed just gold, which we know China has been acquiring a lot
2:15:08
of, and Russia probably has a lot, and then some of the larger
2:15:11
currencies. And this weekend, they launched a demo, and I'll
2:15:15
tell you more about it, of BRICS pay during
2:15:18
Unknown: the BRICS business forum at the International Trade
2:15:21
Center in Moscow that was held on October the 17th through
2:15:25
October the 18th, a new BRICS pay card was revealed for the
2:15:29
first time. It is part of a new BRICS pay transaction settlement
2:15:34
system. So the card itself is just a small fraction of what is
2:15:38
to come and what the BRICS block is currently working on just as
2:15:43
intended, BRICS pay provides the bloc's member countries with
2:15:48
expanded payment options. During the conference, every single
2:15:52
person who was in attendance had an opportunity to test this new
2:15:57
BRICS pay card. I believe that each card had a balance on it
2:16:02
that allowed an individual to get a coffee or get a light
2:16:05
meal. It could be used during the forum on October the 17th
2:16:10
through October the 18th in stores with special BRICS pay
2:16:14
markings to activate that money, one needed to register in the
2:16:20
system and then just scan the QR code of the card itself to make
2:16:25
a payment. Once the registration was complete, a person needed to
2:16:30
scan that QR code from the screen of the employee's phone
2:16:34
in the cafe or store from the payment system. So it was quite
2:16:39
easy and very, very convenient. So
2:16:41
Adam Curry: they make it look like BRICS pay is a thing, and
2:16:44
they have real fancy graphics on their website. It's a spoken hub
2:16:50
model of the central banks, and basically the same as swift and
2:16:55
yes, thank you. Alberta guru, they missed a great marketing
2:16:58
opportunity by calling it bricks bucks, but I guess they didn't
2:17:01
consult us. What this is, what they what they have going now is
2:17:07
an app that is not in the app stores yet. It's a progressive
2:17:10
web app, and you have to in order to use bricks pay, you
2:17:15
have to enter in a Visa or MasterCard credit card. So it's
2:17:19
basically bricks Venmo is complete horse crap. There's
2:17:24
nothing working, at least that not what they're showing. In
2:17:31
order to use this, you have to use pay Visa or MasterCard. It's
2:17:35
dumb. So they're just demoing stuff. It's vaporware. As far as
2:17:40
I'm concerned at this point, well, it's going to be CBD shoes
2:17:44
and everything. Okay, well, I haven't seen it yet. So bricks,
2:17:49
but bricks is definitely a force to be reckoned with. They got
2:17:53
Saudi Arabia, they got Egypt, they got Somalia. They got
2:17:59
joining
2:18:00
John C Dvorak: up left and right.
2:18:01
Adam Curry: I got India
2:18:03
John C Dvorak: until somebody makes him a better offer.
2:18:06
Adam Curry: Trump, Trump will make him a better offer. I said
2:18:09
you don't want to use the US dollar, 3,000% tariffs. Oh, yes,
2:18:14
sir. I love the US dollar.
2:18:18
John C Dvorak: Well, yeah. Well, Trump will put an end to it,
2:18:21
yeah, yeah, when he's president. So I have a couple of clips
2:18:26
about Trump, mostly about CBS, actually, you know, the best,
2:18:32
some of the best analysis of what's going on with the
2:18:34
campaign is out of Sky News. Oh, they're very funny. You know,
2:18:39
Australia, yeah,
2:18:40
Adam Curry: they have funny reports on us. They never report
2:18:43
anything funny about their own idiocy. No, they can't do that
2:18:46
because that's against the Elmer Fudd, dude, it's against the
2:18:49
law. In Australia, you
2:18:50
John C Dvorak: can't, Yeah, same thing in Canada, you can't talk
2:18:52
about your own people. Did
2:18:54
Adam Curry: you hear that in in England? In the UK, if you say
2:19:01
to a Muslim, uh, God bless you, and the Muslim is offended you
2:19:06
are technically breaking the law, yeah. And there was some
2:19:10
other guy who was in the buffer zone of an abortion clinic, and
2:19:16
you're not allowed to protest or or say anything to people inside
2:19:20
the buffer zone, and so he decided to bow his head and
2:19:23
pray, and got arrested and convicted, yeah, for praying in
2:19:30
his head.
2:19:31
John C Dvorak: Yeah, it's
2:19:32
Adam Curry: out of control. Isn't that the definition of
2:19:35
thought crime?
2:19:37
John C Dvorak: They've been doing thought crime prosecutions
2:19:40
for years now, but meanwhile,
2:19:42
Adam Curry: they're going to give the ozempic to everyone
2:19:45
who's obese and out of work, because that'll get the
2:19:47
workforce back on their feet.
2:19:53
John C Dvorak: It's It's unbelievable. Yeah, I don't know
2:19:57
what's wrong with what happened? What happened? I.
2:20:00
Adam Curry: They've fallen. Bro has fallen. Britain has fallen.
2:20:05
They've been, they've been co opted, taken over. CO
2:20:08
John C Dvorak: opted. You know, that must be it. Yeah. So I got
2:20:12
these clips. These are from this on jot this guy, Josh hammers an
2:20:17
American editor at large at Newsweek, and he's got some
2:20:20
nasty things to say about about CBS, including clip two, which
2:20:27
is the one that will follow, that I just was taken aback by,
2:20:30
and I never heard about this. But let's listen to these.
2:20:33
They're complaining about CBS and why Trump didn't do it 60
2:20:37
minutes and and just come just they're just bitterly
2:20:42
complaining. They're over there in Australia about Sky News with
2:20:45
this guy, that
2:20:46
Unknown: that could be an absolute train wreck. Donald
2:20:49
Trump has already, I think, indicated he's going to be doing
2:20:52
Rogan but if she ends up doing it, wow, grab the popcorn. It's
2:20:57
going to be a fun one. But she also had a go at Donald Trump
2:21:00
for refusing to sit down and talk to 60 minutes
2:21:05
his staff won't let him do a 60 Minutes interview. Every
2:21:09
president for the last half century has done one. Anyone
2:21:12
who's running for president
2:21:13
now put to one side the fact that 60 minutes audience is
2:21:17
nowhere near what it used to be. I can think of two very good
2:21:21
reasons why Donald Trump should, out of principle, not speak to
2:21:25
60 minutes again. What are your thoughts? I'm interested to see
2:21:28
if your reasons are the same as mine. Rita,
2:21:31
here in the US, CBS News has recently exposed itself as maybe
2:21:34
the most blatantly corrupt. I'm sorry.
2:21:37
Adam Curry: This guy is a puker. John, this is great. Your
2:21:43
Unknown: thoughts. I'm interested to see if your
2:21:45
reasons are the same as mine.
2:21:46
Rita, here in the US, CBS News has recently exposed itself as
2:21:50
maybe the most blatantly corrupt of all the various corporate
2:21:53
media networks, and that that is that is saying a lot. What I
2:21:55
just said, because there was a lot there. There are a lot of
2:21:58
options to choose from CBS News. I mean, let's just run down the
2:22:01
list in quick succession. First, they hosted that vice
2:22:04
presidential debate between JD Vance and Tim Walz, where JD
2:22:06
Vance absolutely clobbered him. Walls not withstand the fact
2:22:10
that the two CBS moderators were fact checking JD Vance in real
2:22:15
time, notwithstanding the fact that they had given him their
2:22:18
exact word that they would not do that before the debate.
2:22:21
That's number one. Number two, we had a Maoist struggle session
2:22:25
in real time at CBS News when the morning anchor Tony Doka
2:22:29
pill started to ask very reasonable basic questions to
2:22:32
left wing charlatan ta nehisi Coates. He was on to promote his
2:22:36
deeply anti semitic book the message Tony Joker polls asking
2:22:39
very basic questions. Why didn't you talk about Hezbollah, the
2:22:42
Second Intifada? And apparently the the bigwigs, the C suite at
2:22:46
CBS News, was so upset that their anchor had the temerity,
2:22:49
had the chutzpah to ask basic questions that they had a
2:22:53
company wide struggle session the next day whereby Tony
2:22:56
dokapel, the anchor, actually broke down in tears. I'm so
2:22:59
sorry. Ta nehisi Coates, you Wow.
2:23:03
Adam Curry: This guy is Ben Shapiro.
2:23:06
John C Dvorak: He talks a little fast. It's true. He has
2:23:09
Adam Curry: a total with total Ben Shapiro cadence. He does
2:23:13
John C Dvorak: not should mention it, but, but anyway,
2:23:15
he's talking about some of the stuff behind the scenes in CBS.
2:23:18
And he drops this little gem, which is the second clip is very
2:23:22
short that I was unaware of this, but this has got this is
2:23:25
somewhat scandalous, it seems, to me. And then
2:23:28
Unknown: it came out in the aftermath of that that their
2:23:31
standards and practice division at CBS News actually, in a
2:23:35
closely related point, they instructed all of the anchors
2:23:38
and journalists the network to not refer to Jerusalem as being
2:23:42
in Israel,
2:23:47
Adam Curry: because it's Palestine, I guess. No,
2:23:49
John C Dvorak: it's not Palestine. It's not in palace.
2:23:52
No Palace, according to according
2:23:54
Adam Curry: to CBS, yeah, I guess. So, where else are they
2:23:57
going to put it?
2:24:00
John C Dvorak: I guess it has to be, yeah, that I think you're
2:24:02
right. But it's like, what, what? First of all, they bring
2:24:06
on this guy that he's bitching about, which is this, I saw
2:24:09
this, you know, Doka poll, who, who I've ridiculed on the show,
2:24:14
is a reasonable, you know, normal guys, kids are in, live
2:24:18
in Israel, but so he's got some questions. Asked that this, this
2:24:21
black guy who comes out with this hateful book, a Jew hating
2:24:25
book, and he asked him quite I don't even think they were that
2:24:27
poignant. And he gets read the riot act by CBS execs, and then
2:24:32
they pull this stunt, what's riots? What's going on at CBS?
2:24:36
Yeah, they're falling apart. I think the CIA bailed on him. I
2:24:40
think that's what happened. I've been convinced that the
2:24:44
connection has been cut. Yeah. So here we go at the final clip,
2:24:49
which wraps it up. And I by
2:24:50
Unknown: the way, I forgot to mention the last part. They
2:24:52
actually as we, as we, as we all now know they actually edited
2:24:55
Kamala Harris's own 60 Minutes interview. She gave this word
2:24:58
salad of all word salads. When it came to us as relations and
2:25:01
Prime Minister,
2:25:02
my that was one of my two reasons, Josh that because that
2:25:06
was just so deeply dishonest to deceptively edit her answer, and
2:25:13
the answer they put wasn't even part of the original answer. It
2:25:16
wasn't that they cut it short. They just switched things around
2:25:21
to make her look strong and decisive instead of absolutely
2:25:25
incoherent and weak, which was what her actual answer
2:25:28
indicated. And the second reason was Donald Trump sat down with
2:25:33
60 minutes last time around back in 2020 and they claimed that
2:25:38
Hunter Biden's laptop was Russian disinformation, that it
2:25:42
wasn't real, and they've never apologized for that, and I think
2:25:46
that is just another reason why Donald Trump should go tell them
2:25:49
to jump.
2:25:52
John C Dvorak: I'm gonna jump.
2:25:55
Adam Curry: I'm looking this story up. So the New York Post
2:25:57
had this story about CBS News telling staffers not to call
2:26:05
Jerusalem or not to say Jerusalem is in Israel. They got
2:26:08
it. The New York Post got it from Barry Weiss's outfit, the
2:26:12
first post.
2:26:15
John C Dvorak: So, well, CBS is never denied it. So I'm assuming
2:26:18
it's true. There are some corrections that I need to make
2:26:21
about this report, though, that I just played. First of all, I
2:26:25
went over the Leslie Stahl interview with Trump, and I was
2:26:31
going to clip it. I didn't, mainly because I to summarize
2:26:35
better, she never said that the laptop was disinformation. She
2:26:40
just, what she said was that when Trump said it was a
2:26:44
scandal, she says, No, it wasn't right. There's no, you're
2:26:48
kidding. It's not a scandal now. And she just downplayed the
2:26:51
whole thing, which implied that the laptop was disinformation.
2:26:57
But she never, actually, per se, never said that. But I think
2:27:01
that needs, could
2:27:02
Adam Curry: it be, could it be that there's some distancing
2:27:04
from the CIA since 51 intelligence execs or or former
2:27:09
intelligence people all said it was Russian disinformation?
2:27:13
John C Dvorak: I think there's some element there. And I think
2:27:15
there's one more little thing that I this is my kind of meta
2:27:19
look at things, which is that if you're associated with the CIA
2:27:24
to such an extremist CBS people, where that means people are
2:27:27
embedded there, and they'll share, they're still going to be
2:27:30
doing the messaging, whether the company doesn't want to do it or
2:27:33
not, because they're now owned by Sherry redstone. And I think
2:27:39
that she kept
2:27:40
Adam Curry: that in the deal. She sold paramount. She's still
2:27:42
running it, Yeah, boy, but she kept CBS when she sold off
2:27:47
everything else or paramount, went to she still owns
2:27:50
John C Dvorak: paramount, too. She hasn't sold well, she sold
2:27:52
off paramount to that, yeah, to the Ellison's kid. Ellison's
2:27:57
kid, yeah, I think she's, well, maybe I'm wrong about Sherry
2:28:00
being involved, but whatever the case. Uh, that's not important,
2:28:04
because what I'm thinking is there's still guys there that
2:28:06
are represented as it were. And I think that that edit that was
2:28:11
done of the Kamala thing, where they played the one clip of her
2:28:14
yakking away about nothing, and then
2:28:16
Adam Curry: they showed that CIA setup.
2:28:19
John C Dvorak: I think it was a setup. I think it was done on
2:28:22
purpose so they could get caught, to get burned, because
2:28:27
it was so obvious, they first they put it out there, and they
2:28:29
just let it sit, and they let the social media people take it
2:28:32
apart, and then they got burned. Oh, look what they did. They did
2:28:35
this edit. They're editing it. They're editing it. And I think
2:28:39
that was done on purpose just to hurt her campaign. She is under
2:28:43
attack. I'm no more. I see these, these elements that are
2:28:48
appearing is to make it look like they're they want Trump in.
2:28:51
You say so? I say so. They want Trump in, but they can't make it
2:28:55
obvious.
2:28:59
Adam Curry: What'll be interesting to see if the far
2:29:02
right in America doesn't spike the ball and goes, shoves it in
2:29:08
everybody's face.
2:29:12
John C Dvorak: Of course, they're gonna spike the ball.
2:29:16
Sad. I hope they don't. They can't nod. Everybody spikes the
2:29:22
ball.
2:29:23
Adam Curry: Everybody spikes the ball.
2:29:26
John C Dvorak: They do you do too, yeah?
2:29:29
Adam Curry: Well, okay, you're right. Everybody spikes the
2:29:31
ball, yeah, that's what
2:29:32
John C Dvorak: you do. But you got your touchdown, you spike
2:29:35
the ball. The number of people that don't spike the ball is a
2:29:38
minimal. Is so unusual, it like stands out because of it. I
2:29:43
Adam Curry: don't spike the ball. I just do my end zone
2:29:45
shuffle.
2:29:47
John C Dvorak: Yeah, you do a dance. Yes, I
2:29:48
Adam Curry: do well, let's stick in the region. And same report,
2:29:53
two different versions. This is NBC
2:29:56
Unknown: tonight, a drone fired
2:29:58
toward the Israeli Prime. Minister's residence, Benjamin
2:30:01
Netanyahu office says an unmanned aircraft sent from
2:30:05
Hezbollah in Lebanon targeted his home north of Tel Aviv. The
2:30:09
IDF said a drone struck a building nearby, causing no
2:30:13
injuries or significant damage. So
2:30:16
Adam Curry: that's the NBC report. Here's the TRT Turkish
2:30:19
radio television report, unmanned
2:30:21
Unknown: aerial vehicles are being used by Hezbollah to
2:30:24
target critical locations in Israel, marking a significant
2:30:29
escalation, a drone directly hit the home of Prime Minister
2:30:33
Benjamin Netanyahu in Caesarea.
2:30:36
Adam Curry: So Did it hit a building nearby? Or did it hit
2:30:39
the home? Seems rather confusing.
2:30:44
John C Dvorak: Do we have from these reports that I don't think
2:30:47
I have one of these clips, but I can't tell. No, they don't
2:30:52
really let you know.
2:30:54
Adam Curry: Have you heard all those reports? About a year ago,
2:30:58
supposedly 20 foot drones were flying over Andrew's Air Base,
2:31:02
and they must have come from a ship in Chinese ship. You heard
2:31:07
this? No, oh, I got to get some reports on because they show
2:31:11
video and they show drones with flashing anti collision lights.
2:31:15
What kind of covert operation is that?
2:31:18
John C Dvorak: It doesn't sound right
2:31:20
Adam Curry: now, I'm not quite sure what's going on there.
2:31:23
This, I thought was rather interesting, though, we
2:31:25
Unknown: have managed to confirm that these two documents that
2:31:28
were leaked on telegram on Friday do appear to be
2:31:33
authentic, and they are highly classified documents that
2:31:36
suggest that the US has been essentially spying on Israel's
2:31:40
plans to retaliate against Iran. They're also they also have
2:31:44
markings suggesting that the only entities that should be
2:31:48
viewing these documents are the US and some of its closest
2:31:51
allies, the Five Eyes partnership. And so this is
2:31:54
obviously very concerning to us officials. And while we are not
2:31:57
going to quote from these documents or share them
2:32:00
directly. We can outline them broadly. One of them, for
2:32:03
example, which is sourced to the National Geospatial Intelligence
2:32:06
Agency, discusses Israel's movement of certain munitions in
2:32:11
order to prepare for a possible strike on Iran. Another
2:32:14
document, which is sourced to the National Security Agency
2:32:17
discusses the Israeli Air Forces preparations and exercises for a
2:32:21
strike, including information about the Israeli Air Force's
2:32:24
use of air to surface missiles. And so this is obviously going
2:32:30
to cause some consternation, to say the least, in Israel itself.
2:32:34
And of course, it comes in a very delicate moment between the
2:32:37
US and Israel. And so for now, what we're hearing from US
2:32:40
officials is that they're not going to confirm the
2:32:43
authenticity of these humans for now, when we reached out for
2:32:46
official comment, but we are told that one of the main
2:32:49
focuses of the investigation at this point is just determining
2:32:53
who had access to these documents to begin with.
2:32:56
Adam Curry: Yeah, this is so transparent to me. Of course, no
2:33:00
Israel's doing it that that strike on Iran. It wasn't our
2:33:04
bombers. No, this is Israel. Is Israel.
2:33:09
John C Dvorak: This is the very sketchy,
2:33:11
Adam Curry: denied deniability. Well, they attack, but it wasn't
2:33:15
us. I love some of the people, like, You're so wrong. Curry,
2:33:20
you shill. Israel runs America, not the other way around. Better
2:33:25
than that,
2:33:26
John C Dvorak: you're, you're a Zionist shill.
2:33:32
Adam Curry: Yeah, that's right. Oh, sir, Brian of London is so
2:33:35
bad that whole thing was bull crap is a pilot of London's the
2:33:39
best pile of bull crap. It's not true. Okay, yeah, all right.
2:33:48
John C Dvorak: And why is he Brian of London, when he is
2:33:50
lives in Israel, because he used
2:33:51
Adam Curry: to be in London, so what? Well, and then he moved to
2:33:56
Israel, and now he's still Sir Brian. No,
2:33:58
John C Dvorak: he's the Zionist shill.
2:34:01
Adam Curry: He always was a Zionist shield, just he used to
2:34:03
be in London as good it doesn't matter to me. Yeah,
2:34:08
Unknown: he's a good guy.
2:34:11
Adam Curry: So this, this is unsurprising, but yet troubling.
2:34:16
It went much faster than they thought it would. If we can move
2:34:18
out of the region, I'd like to go to Big Pharma,
2:34:22
Unknown: see what we got here. Yeah, listen, listen to this
2:34:24
today, a major shakeup at CVS Health CEO Karen Lynch suddenly
2:34:29
replaced at the nation's biggest pharmacy chain, health
2:34:33
care so personal to you and me that you can't lose sight of
2:34:37
that
2:34:37
human connection facing financial struggles Under her
2:34:40
leadership, CVS is on track to close 900 of its nearly 10,000
2:34:45
locations in its three year plan and cut about 3000 corporate
2:34:50
jobs. Industry wide, an estimated 7000 pharmacies have
2:34:54
already shuttered in the last five years. Walgreens, just this
2:34:58
week, announced 1200 Of its remaining stores could soon
2:35:01
close, and Rite Aid filed for bankruptcy last year.
2:35:05
Older demographics, they want to sit down with the pharmacist,
2:35:10
understand the medicine. Younger demographics, they don't know
2:35:13
interact with pharmacists. They want their medicine, and they
2:35:17
want to cheap and they want to hit their doorstep. What
2:35:20
does a pharmacy look like when it comes to getting your
2:35:23
medication in five years, you could
2:35:25
have potentially 25, 30% less pharmacies in the next two,
2:35:29
three years. There are today. The retail
2:35:31
closures are creating even more drugstore deserts that has
2:35:36
Amazon pharmacy taking flight testing prescription drone
2:35:39
delivery in Texas with plans to open pharmacies in 20 more
2:35:44
cities next year, changes in consumer habits, prescribing a
2:35:49
new dose of reality.
2:35:51
Adam Curry: So this went really fast. I mean, we really
2:35:53
accelerated telemedicine during covid. It seems like what a
2:35:58
setup this was to accelerate that, then we got everybody
2:36:03
doing medicine by mail, with Amazon now leading the charge.
2:36:09
John C Dvorak: And of course, yeah, Amazon gets blamed for
2:36:11
this. But this started long before Amazon, because I have
2:36:15
been on Medicare for a while and they and every time you get your
2:36:18
you have to buy Plan B, or whatever it is, from one of
2:36:21
these characters, not the Medicare plus, which is a total
2:36:26
Jip, but the, but just the drug, the drug payment system, you get
2:36:30
a note, hey, you know, we can mail you these drugs. This is
2:36:33
from like, Humana. Humana, oh, we can mail you the drugs. I
2:36:37
don't know why you're buying them at a pharmacy. They're the
2:36:39
ones, the same guys that are paying for the pharmacy bills
2:36:44
that you're paying just a five bucks for, or whatever, for a
2:36:46
drug that costs way too much because they're overcharging.
2:36:49
They're they're the ones that set up shoppers. We'll mail them
2:36:52
to you and you say, you or you save five bucks. It's, it's a.
2:36:57
This is a. This is all the insurance companies you
2:37:00
Adam Curry: know, Plan B is, uh, is something different than you
2:37:03
think. Well, whatever
2:37:03
John C Dvorak: it is, there's a, there's a drug plan. Oh, can I
2:37:07
ask the point is? The point is, is that these, these, these
2:37:10
middlemen, that not the middlemen who buy and sell drugs
2:37:13
to the pharmacies, but the these insurance companies have horned
2:37:17
in on this whole thing, yeah, and they're the ones behind it,
2:37:20
and Amazon just saw it as an opportunity to the advantage of
2:37:23
it, but they're not being if it wasn't for these other guys, it
2:37:26
wouldn't have probably never happened. Well,
2:37:28
Adam Curry: it's great because, you know, the young kids that
2:37:30
just want their Adderall through the mail, just send me my five
2:37:33
hands. Man, that's what it's about. It's just drug dealing.
2:37:36
It's just drug dealing through the US Postal Service. I want to
2:37:41
ask you a question. So Tina decided that she wanted to,
2:37:46
she's 62 she said, You know, I'm going to take early retirement.
2:37:51
And so she, you know, goes the whole rigamarole with the Social
2:37:54
Security office. And then she gets a mail, a letter in the
2:37:59
mail. It's like, okay, you're all set up starting February.
2:38:01
And of course, you get less. You know, you don't get your full.
2:38:04
John C Dvorak: You get a person. You get a you get a lowered
2:38:06
percentage, which she wants to
2:38:08
Adam Curry: immediately invest in Bitcoin, which I think is
2:38:10
great. But from what I understand, if you make more
2:38:17
than $35,000 a year married or 32,000 single, then they'll take
2:38:24
50% they'll tax your social security by 50%
2:38:29
John C Dvorak: they tax it, yeah, well, no, it's worse than
2:38:31
that. What they do,
2:38:35
Adam Curry: what is this crap?
2:38:38
John C Dvorak: What they do is they take they lower your
2:38:41
benefits. I wouldn't, by the way, what she wants to do. I
2:38:45
personally, I wouldn't do it, but okay, if she wants to do it.
2:38:48
Mimi also took early, but she took early at like 65 or so, and
2:38:51
that was that early when I it's just a long story, but I they do
2:38:56
the math for you and say, well, here's how much you get. Here's
2:38:58
the total payouts going to be if you wait, and the talk total
2:39:01
payout so high that is, I don't understand why people do it
2:39:05
early, but here's what they do. First, they they have a set
2:39:08
amount that you're going to get a month. And then when the if
2:39:12
you're making money, like you are doing, and I'm doing and
2:39:16
she's part of that, because it's part, you know, it's part of
2:39:19
your income, they say, well, that's interesting. And they
2:39:22
have a sliding scale to say, instead of giving you the 3000 a
2:39:26
month or whatever you're going to get because you're making
2:39:29
money, we're going to drop that to 2000 and then, oh, and by the
2:39:33
way, that 2000 that you're going to get is going to be taxed, no.
2:39:37
Adam Curry: So this is how, this is why they have such a great
2:39:40
deal going with Walmart, you get all these old people who want to
2:39:44
supplement their income, and so they make sure that these old
2:39:47
people who are working at Walmart don't make more than
2:39:49
$32,000 a year, so it doesn't impact their social security
2:39:53
payments.
2:39:55
John C Dvorak: Well, that's an I don't know if the scheme goes
2:39:58
that
2:39:58
Adam Curry: deep. Maybe, well, from more. Walmart's perspective
2:40:01
at mind,
2:40:01
John C Dvorak: I'm sure maybe Walmart's figured it out as
2:40:04
possible. But the Yeah, but isn't
2:40:08
Adam Curry: that money that we gave them already? I mean,
2:40:10
hasn't that been How can this be? Right? Is that what Trump
2:40:13
Social
2:40:13
John C Dvorak: Security is separate from income tax, and
2:40:16
you pay into a fund and you're supposed to get that money back.
2:40:19
It's like, it's like forced saving. So you get your money
2:40:22
back, but you don't, but you don't. No, yeah,
2:40:26
Adam Curry: okay, is this what Trump is saying? He there'll be
2:40:28
no tax on Social Security. Yes.
2:40:30
John C Dvorak: And everybody who's got any sense, we'll vote
2:40:34
get Social Security, which is everybody over, like, Tina's
2:40:37
age, I guess, are crazy not to vote for Trump, just to save
2:40:41
that, it's a lot of money, yeah,
2:40:44
Adam Curry: wow. But he can't. He that has to go through
2:40:48
Congress. He can't. Yeah, of
2:40:49
John C Dvorak: course it does. Okay, wow. But you know, it's
2:40:53
one of those votes. If you vote against it, you expect to get
2:40:56
reelected. And so one of those tricky little guys, you can get
2:41:00
through, you can get it through Congress. Wow.
2:41:05
Unknown: All right, well, that blows,
2:41:11
Adam Curry: you know, if you don't mind, blow it blows it's
2:41:14
we're overtaxed,
2:41:17
John C Dvorak: yeah, well, that's been going on for a
2:41:18
while. I have a climate change clip as a Boeing clip. All
2:41:21
right, let's
2:41:22
Adam Curry: do we definitely need to do the Boeing clip,
2:41:24
because I think there are they close to ending this. Yeah, no,
2:41:27
John C Dvorak: that's done. Done deal. After
2:41:29
Unknown: several rounds of failed talks and an ongoing
2:41:32
strike, Boeing and its largest union reached a tentative
2:41:35
contract agreement that includes raises of 35% over four years.
2:41:40
That's a big jump from over the previous contract offer and
2:41:43
close to the amount the union initially asked for workers vote
2:41:47
on the tentative contract next week, the strike was a big hit
2:41:50
to Boeing's bottom line, crippling most airplane
2:41:53
production at Boeing and leading to cost cutting measures and
2:41:56
layoffs and a plan to raise money by selling new stock or
2:41:59
debt. The deal also includes a bonus of $7,000 if workers
2:42:03
ratified the deal, hmm,
2:42:06
John C Dvorak: so I think that'll that'll close the deal.
2:42:09
Adam Curry: Why be done? Interestingly enough, the the
2:42:13
postal letter carriers union, they got screwed. They got a so
2:42:19
their tentative agreement is for 1.3% increase, and it's my
2:42:26
understanding they cannot strike. Interesting, yeah, we
2:42:33
have a lot of mail carriers, and they are not happy, and
2:42:37
John C Dvorak: they shouldn't be no before we play the climate
2:42:41
change clip. I do have this clip to get out of the way, because I
2:42:44
wonder about its authenticity. I look at it and look at it. I
2:42:49
know how you can do certain tricks, but it looks real to me.
2:42:52
Adam Curry: I'm going to say, No,
2:42:54
John C Dvorak: you're going to say it's fake. Yeah, you talk
2:42:58
about the camel clip. Yes,
2:43:00
Adam Curry: that's what I'm talking about, but we'll listen
2:43:03
to it. I have not. I've only watched it. Listening to it is
2:43:06
always better. It's much better for deconstructing. So I guess
2:43:10
the where is it?
2:43:13
John C Dvorak: Camel, the drunk, never
2:43:14
Unknown: let anyone take your joy from you. I call myself a
2:43:20
joyful warrior, right? Never let anyone take your joy from you.
2:43:28
Do you do what you gotta do? And isn't that a wonderful way to
2:43:35
live, to know you have purpose?
2:43:40
Adam Curry: Yeah, I think that's doctored. I think if anything,
2:43:43
she's stoned.
2:43:49
John C Dvorak: I haven't I cannot make a determination on
2:43:52
this. I've tried. I've watched it a number of times. I watch
2:43:56
her and I watch the clip. It's blurry, which bothers me, yeah,
2:44:00
Adam Curry: and they put music under it, which is annoying,
2:44:04
yeah, but there are versions without the music, all right? We
2:44:07
need to find the original pop two
2:44:09
John C Dvorak: with trolls, right? This was done in some
2:44:11
setting that we don't have access to, or it hasn't been, I
2:44:15
haven't seen a version of it showing the full context,
2:44:17
because if she's drunk there, she's drunk throughout, which is
2:44:22
so. So I would probably lean toward what you're thinking. But
2:44:26
I still, I like the clip. I think hilarious. Exactly. She
2:44:31
sounds fun. We know she drinks. It's fun,
2:44:35
Adam Curry: it's fun, it's always fun. Poor woman. What's
2:44:38
she gonna do after she loses? That's gonna be I mean,
2:44:41
John C Dvorak: she's so arrogant, she'll just just take
2:44:44
a consulting gig somewhere and make more money. Oh,
2:44:46
Adam Curry: it'll be interesting to see where. Yeah, so
2:44:49
John C Dvorak: this guy, Ian Plimer, plimmer. Plimer, I just
2:44:52
thought this is an out of the blue clip that showed up. Uh,
2:44:56
these are the classics that we did, the climate special and
2:44:59
the. If people can look back on it, I did it some, I don't know,
2:45:03
a few years ago, and it has mostly clips like this,
2:45:07
questioning all climate change arguments. And I thought this
2:45:10
was a decent one to play. We have
2:45:12
Unknown: been cooling down for the last 4000 years. So people
2:45:16
say, Oh, the planet's warming. Well, it's all about when you
2:45:22
start the measurements, if we look at the last 38 years, there
2:45:26
has been no change in temperature. If we look in the
2:45:29
last 150 years, we've had three warming periods and three
2:45:34
cooling periods where the total warmth of about point six
2:45:38
degrees Celsius. Now I wonder why it warms. I mean 1850 what
2:45:43
happened then? Oh yes, that was the end of the Little Ice Age.
2:45:46
Do you think it's going to warm or cool after a little ice age?
2:45:49
Of course it's going to warm. So if you start taking measurements
2:45:54
from 1850 in the industrial revolution, we have been
2:45:57
warming. If you take measurements from the medieval
2:46:01
warming. We've been cooling. We've cooled about five degrees
2:46:06
since then, if you take measurements from the Roman
2:46:09
warming, we've cooled about five degrees. So as soon as someone
2:46:13
tells you, oh, it's warming, the reply you give is, since when
2:46:20
Adam Curry: I think cop 16 is underway or coming up soon in
2:46:24
Colombia,
2:46:26
John C Dvorak: so they should the fly too.
2:46:29
Adam Curry: Yeah, baby. Do they have good hotels in Colombia
2:46:32
because we got the big conference there, so
2:46:34
John C Dvorak: I believe so. Oh, lovely.
2:46:37
Unknown: Due to climate change, I'm
2:46:39
gonna show my food
2:46:40
by donating to no agenda. Imagine all the people who could
2:46:43
do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fun.
2:46:52
Adam Curry: Yeah, baby. It's time for a little thank you.
2:46:55

2:47:39

2:48:27

3:01:20
the question
3:01:21
John C Dvorak: shows you your reliance on third parties. What
3:01:24
this is a microservices architecture at its best. There
3:01:28
Adam Curry: it is. Do your own hosting? Go sovereign.
3:01:30
Everybody, no agenda, meetups.com. If you can't find a
3:01:33
meetup near you, start one yourself. It's real easy and
3:01:35
fun. Sometimes you want to go hang out with all the nights and
3:01:40
Unknown: days
3:01:54
Adam Curry: like a party, like a party, it is. It was a great
3:01:58
party. I really enjoyed. Enjoyed. It was kind of out of
3:02:01
the way for a lot of people. When I'm glad people came. This
3:02:04
is where we select the end of show. ISO and I have three I
3:02:08
will start it off. This is America, and I have goodbye, see
3:02:14
ya. Then, of course, I
3:02:17
Unknown: love cows,
3:02:21
John C Dvorak: another evergreen,
3:02:22
Adam Curry: hard, hard to beat the I love cows. I don't know
3:02:26
what you got. What you got? I got
3:02:27
John C Dvorak: fabulous, fabulous podcast. Thanks, boys.
3:02:30
Oh, there's,
3:02:31
Adam Curry: I mean, yes, you're done. Where are you getting
3:02:33
these?
3:02:34
John C Dvorak: I got that one from a really obscures podcast
3:02:38
you
3:02:38
Adam Curry: need to do. Who are these podcasts again? You do
3:02:41
that segment. You know, you're always it's always good. I'm
3:02:44
just on a roll. Yes, you are. All right, everybody, it's time
3:02:47
now for everybody's favorite moment of the show, John's Tip
3:02:50
of the Day. And
3:02:52
Unknown: sometimes I don't,
3:03:01
John C Dvorak: I have, I have, actually two tips again, one
3:03:04
general tip, but one tip for a very select portion of the
3:03:08
audience. If you get have Google TV, they Google YouTube TV or
3:03:14
Google I mean, sorry, YouTube TV, I don't know. I always say
3:03:17
that and you, if you type in Google TV, get some other thing.
3:03:19
Yeah, it's different. It's no good.
3:03:21
Adam Curry: No, it sucks.
3:03:25
John C Dvorak: There used to be a thing for NFL viewers, is
3:03:28
people like watching football. There's a thing called the Red
3:03:30
Zone, which is a terrific but you have to pay for it as
3:03:35
terrific summary site. You don't watch any football games. Just
3:03:38
watch this in real time. It tells you what's going on. But
3:03:41
if you go to turn to the NFL networks, they have this thing
3:03:45
is like football today live, they have the during the set,
3:03:48
during the football games on Sunday. Go to this, it's a
3:03:52
clone. It's a clone. It's a cheap clone of of the red zone.
3:03:57
And it's just, it's actually maybe better, because there's
3:04:00
more than one guy doing it. I'm just a tip for you football
3:04:05
viewers. Now there was Android kit.
3:04:07
Adam Curry: Is it cheaper? Or was free? It's free?
3:04:11
John C Dvorak: Yeah, it's free. If you got YouTube TV, you get
3:04:14
the NFL Network free, and you just, you got it, you can watch
3:04:19
this instead, and it doesn't cost you anything. So anyway,
3:04:21
it's just kind of a good ball, guys. Good tip. Good tip. It is
3:04:24
a good tip. So I'm gonna talk about chia seeds.
3:04:30
Adam Curry: I have a chia pet,
3:04:32
John C Dvorak: yeah, well, chia seeds, uh, which they sell them
3:04:34
now, because they're a nutritional sub, kind of a thing
3:04:37
you can add to your food, but they're you, for people who
3:04:41
don't know if you add them to, if you add like, couple
3:04:44
tablespoons of these seeds, which are pretty tasteless, but
3:04:47
you add them to, like a smoothie or a milkshake or anything,
3:04:50
it'll thicken it up like crazy. And it's like a it's like an
3:04:54
natural thickener, except the fact that these chia seeds, your
3:04:57
heart is a rock. Don't
3:04:58
Adam Curry: they get stuck in your teeth? Yeah? No,
3:05:00
John C Dvorak: no. This is the this what the tip is, ah. You
3:05:03
got to put it through the blender, and then you got to
3:05:06
wait five minutes. So this chia seeds kind of soak in the in the
3:05:09
smoothie or the juice, so they soften up. And then when you hit
3:05:12
the blender again, it turns into a thick goo, which is dynamite,
3:05:16
and it's the seeds are gone. They don't stick in your teeth.
3:05:21
This is my, my culinary Tip of the Day. Wow.
3:05:27
Adam Curry: Sorry, soon, coming from Gateway. Publishing, too
3:05:32
many gate view, too many seeds.com. All right, everybody,
3:05:36
tip of the day. Wow. John dynamite,
3:05:42
John C Dvorak: yeah, okay. Well, you know, people will appreciate
3:05:46
it. Once they do it, they will. It's like that Neva and her
3:05:49
leash.
3:05:51
Adam Curry: Yes, no. People love the tips. Tip of the day.net.
3:05:54
No. Agendafund.com, find out all about the tips. People even
3:05:58
going on X that was a great tip. End of show mixes. By request.
3:06:03
We'll do the Gitmo nation, national anthem. Then we have
3:06:06
miracle Wolf, David kekta, Hugh Allison and Sir Winkler, who
3:06:13
comes in with just massively cool end of show mix coming up
3:06:18

3:06:24
Story number, Episode 415 and that's titled elephants, think,
3:06:30
I guess they do. And coming to you from the heart of the Texas
3:06:35
Hill Country, home of the Fredericksburg meetup in the
3:06:38
morning, everybody, I'm Adam curry, and
3:06:41
John C Dvorak: from Northern Silicon Valley, where the
3:06:42
weather is great October. Of course, that's why I'm John C
3:06:47
DuBois.
3:06:47
Adam Curry: Remember us at no agenda donations.com we look
3:06:51
forward to seeing you on Thursday for another three three
3:06:54
and a half hours, or whatever it takes of media deconstruction,
3:06:57
we serve you to make sense of your world. Until then, adios,
3:07:01
mofos, Hui, Hui and such and rise and Saint dries,
3:07:06
Unknown: gentlemen, please rise for your Gitmo nation, national
3:07:09
anthem in the morning.
3:07:17
We are all starstruck to be human, resources and service in
3:07:26
all lands and all shiz, from the east to west down under to the
3:07:39
lowlands and beyond. We are happy and distracted.
3:08:02
If they don't moderate and monitor the content, we lose
3:08:07
total control, total control, total control. Up total control.
3:08:27
We're going to shut this down. We're going to throw these
3:08:30
people in jail, jail,
3:08:31
jail, jail, jail.
3:08:35
There is a yearning for leaders who can kill and imprison their
3:08:41
opponents, leaders who can kill.
3:09:02
We lose total control,
3:09:07
and I find that absolutely about smacking terrifying.
3:09:25
He says that as Commander in Chief, he would use our military
3:09:30
to go after them honestly. Let that sink in, the use of the
3:09:36
American military to go after American citizens
3:09:42
called his Democratic honesty enemy within. Enemy Within.
3:09:46
Hello, we're not making this honestly.
3:09:50
Let that sink in. Hello.
3:09:59
Again. It is the enemy from within, and they're very
3:10:03
dangerous. They're Marxists and communists and fascists. I think
3:10:09
the bigger problem is the enemy from within.
3:10:14
We have some very bad people. We
3:10:15
have some sick people, radical left lunatics. Oh, I want to
3:10:22
talk about an course, people have to prove
3:10:27
who they are, but not in a way that
3:10:29
makes it
3:10:31
John C Dvorak: almost impossible to have to prove who they are.
3:10:32
It's just blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. It's always a couple
3:10:36
weeks away. Well,
3:10:37
Adam Curry: that's just for the goo. It'll take much longer to
3:10:39
package it into a missile.
3:10:41
John C Dvorak: Yeah, they keep changing the target, a week
3:10:43
away, a week away a couple weeks away a year, next month, years,
3:10:48
decade, a week away a week away a week away a week away, a week
3:10:53
away a week away, a week away a week away nuclear
3:10:58
Adam Curry: now they are only days or weeks away from having
3:11:00
enough uranium goo, however, Milly says it will still take
3:11:06
quite a period of time to package that into a missile. If
3:11:09
John C Dvorak: Israel sends a couple of missiles over anything
3:11:12
a week away a week away a week away a week away a
3:11:14
Unknown: week away a week away a week
3:11:17
away a week away the
3:11:21
John C Dvorak: nuke being a week away the nuke being a week away,
3:11:24
a week away, a couple weeks away,
3:11:26
Adam Curry: years, decades. We do better than NPR.
3:11:30
Unknown: They're eating the dogs. They're eating the cats.
3:11:36
They're eating the pets of the people that live there, and this
3:11:42
is what's happening in our country. Country,
3:11:47
I can imagine what can be and be unburdened by what has been. You
3:11:51
know? What can be unburdened by what has been? What can be
3:11:57
unburdened by what has
3:11:59
been up already. I think
3:12:01
the bigger problem is the enemy from within, not even people
3:12:04
that have come in. And we have some sick people, radical left
3:12:09
people from within, we have some very bad people. Radical Left
3:12:12
lunatics. Is necessary by National Guard or very necessary
3:12:15
by the military, because they can't let
3:12:19
that happen. He's the one who talks about an enemy within,
3:12:23
within, an enemy within, suggesting he would turn the
3:12:27
American military on the American people.
3:12:30
Shut up, already.
3:12:35
Bomb them right now and bomb them again and bomb them again.
3:12:43
Bomb them the enemy within. Bomb them fascist and bomb them
3:12:47
against and bomb them again. Bomb them the Supreme Court.
3:12:52
Bomb them because green white, bomb them fascist and bomb them
3:12:56
against
3:12:59
that sink in. Bomb them to go after America. Citizens. You can
3:13:03
take that to the
3:13:04
bank the enemy.
3:13:08
Bomb them from within six, kill them. Fact Check false. Amen,
3:13:16
fascist bomb them. Dangerous. Kill them. Fact Check false. Ah.
3:13:27
Kill them. Kill
3:13:28
Kill them. It's so hard to see those things
3:13:37
we cannot see, but must know now
3:13:39
everyone hug and share a secret.
3:13:42
I was there. I'm going to be there, and we're going to take a
3:13:46
look, and I'll give you a full report what I do,
3:13:57
vorac.org/n,

3:14:02
podcast. Thanks, boys. You.
