to give me the right hat at the right moment
just when I was ready to buy something. Adam Curry.
It's Sunday, September 6, 2026. This is your award-winning Give
My Nation Media assassination episode 1901. This is no agenda.
Oh, I can't believe I almost made a mistake. Hello,
everybody, in the morning to you. Coming to you once
again. in the morning trolls. I am Adam Curry and
with me as always, we always want to bring him
a song. Sir Ducifer in the house! They second coat,
seducer for back in the chair with the podfather. Pressure
while Adam steers the slaughter. Let's leave the dock Vans
won't call it a war While the diesel cracks the
clock Just do it Strike story, midterm machine in the
mid- money in the sticks They sold you a war
with a softer name Sold you a ballot with a
tighter frame Serb, Lucifer, rat, shotgun, pot, father, aim Sunday
dew on the glass, now peel the game Just do
it Oh yeah Good morning! These opening songs are getting
In the morning sir, in the
pretty rowdy. You know, it's like I'm a wrestler or
something. I'm coming out to wrestling music. Yeah, exactly. You
need like the, you know, the pyrotechnics going and everything.
You got your, you got to take off your gown,
your dressing gown. You're good to go. That's right. Hand
it to my manager and then flex for the crowd.
Yeah, and the crowd goes wild. Introduce for here once
again with us for the best podcast in the universe.
I'd completely forgotten because I'm still here in Rotterdam. This
is Labor Day weekend. Yeah. That means no one's listening.
I sort of forgot about it. I don't even know
what day it is and today's my brother's birthday and
I'm like, what? What's going on? September is already here.
I didn't even realize it was Labor Day weekend until
I got the newsletter. I'm like, oh, hold on a
second. So that means no one's here. Just you and
me. There's three trolls? No. There's a couple of trolls.
Let's do an early troll count. Hold on a second.
Let's see what we've got here. We've got, oh, 706.
Okay. Oh, 719. Oh, it's moving up. It's moving up.
Okay. Yeah, it's moving up. Well, this might be a
good time to just talk about the No Agenda community.
Wait a minute. Do you have your fan on? Do
you have your... Oh, I can turn it off. Yeah,
I think you should because it's going to bug me.
It's my landline. Hold on. By the way, Sir Ducifer
sent, I don't know, 800 clips? It's like you're outdoing
me, man, with the amount of clips you've been creating.
That's beautiful. It got ridiculous this morning. It did. I
can tell. This is what happened. I played a gig
last night, and I'll get back to the No Agenda
community in one second. But we played a gig last
night. I got home. I was talking to my sister
on the phone. I kind of fell asleep after I
talked to her. And then I woke up this morning
and goes, oh, shit, I didn't make any clips yet.
So then I went. It was like 730 in the
morning. Made coffee. Made clips. You went all in, man.
I was making clips too. I've been sitting with the
grandbaby, you know, just kind of rocking back and forth.
Like, okay, clip, clip, we'll do that. So you're cutting
with one hand? Oh, yeah. Well, I'm vaping. Don't tell
my daughter. Hey man, I can vape above the baby,
it's okay. You could actually hold the baby while vaping
and do clips in the other ones. I'm telling you,
this is only certain podcasters have this ability. Did you
figure out the rap yet? Do you have the swab?
The swaddling clothes? Oh, the swaddling thing. And I don't
do the swaddle. I just like come here. And besides,
whenever the baby's in my arm, it's always, it's always
tooting. You know, it's like. Always. That's what they do.
They're processing the American diet, or I guess the Rotterdam
diet at this point. Yeah. So, yeah, they're doing that
up. But let me just go do a quick plug
for Sir Brian with an I. He, out of the
kindness of his own heart, I didn't even ask him,
he grabbed a domain. But listening to that opening music,
he grabbed D-E-W-T-H-E-D-E-W.com. So, do the do, which is a
takeoff of Mountain Dew. Yes. then he made me a
little site and it did a great job and it's
um you know there's nothing much on it now we're
building it up but he just did this you are
you are you are giving him way more than he
deserved you think this is the no agenda community that
that's what you're that's that was your no agenda community
report that was my note well i do have another
part of that too um sir uh sir scott of
the armory also has been you know sending me tips
and stuff and he's extremely you know he likes what
we're doing he likes the there and yeah he he
was but he said this is this is what I'm
saying I'm gonna do I guess I'll do is Alex
Jones yeah I would do it I'm saying you are
now the crackpot and he is the buzzkill it's that's
what he said you know what it's yes and it's
kind of weird because I always thought that would happen
at one point where I would just be the old
guy And, in fact, it really has happened a little
bit because you came in with the Lancey Clancy stuff.
Oh, yeah. And I was like, oh, man. And it
is by far the number one trending story everywhere. It's
crazy. And I cut back on my clips of that
just because I knew you were like, how are you
looking at this? I'm rolling my eyes. I'm rolling my
eyes. I think it's going to lead to some precedence
going on this trial. And one clip I didn't cut
was a comedian, Owen Benjamin, talking about that case, the
Glancy case, and a case in, I think, Scotland or
Ireland, where a nurse strangled her three kids, like, three
years before. I mean, weird. And on the same day.
It happened on the same day, three years later. Yeah,
but here, it's like... So it's just what people are
talking about because this is something they can control their
opinion. They can't control the war. They can't control the
price of gas, but they can control their opinion and
what they say on TikTok and all these other forms
of getting their word out there. Well, yeah, they can
control it. But yeah, I understand. But it's got it's
gotten into Candace Owens level conspiracy, like the husband. He's
suspicious. I don't trust him. And it's just it's just
going to go. And I blame podcasts, honestly. Podcast and
Substack, it's the problem. It's a real problem when it
comes to this. You mentioned a Substack you read last
week about this. What did it say? Was it blaming
the father? Well, no, it was talking about how many
people think it's a psyop. I've gotten tons of emails.
Hey, man, is this a psyop? You know what? No.
No, it's not. It's just like we went through this
with the OJ trial, but we didn't have social media.
We didn't have YouTube. And we all had to kind
of, you know, sit by the television and wait for
the verdict to come down. And then we had the,
if the glove fits, you must acquit. I mean, we
had our version of memes back in the day. But
now it's just out of control. And I don't know,
people must not be working. You know, they're sitting at
home or they're sitting at the job. You know what
they're doing? They're on the toilet looking at their phones.
I think you said it, though. I think you said
it right, is that... People feel so powerless about what
is happening in the world in general. that all they
have is their opinion. That's actually a pretty astute observation.
Well, and their opinion now at least has reach, and
they can send it out there, and people go, oh,
I like this opinion, or I don't like this opinion.
They give it a thumbs up, thumbs down. Everybody gets
to rate everybody's opinion. And if your opinion's good and
has legs in the eyes of this person, then it'll
get broadcast around. Well, before we even delve into that,
I did a little bit of research because you piqued
my interest with – so there's really a couple of
things that are playing. So we've got the Clancy-Lancy trial.
forget her name. We have the data centers, which is
another thing everybody has an opinion about, but no one
wants to go sit in the zoning committee or anything
like that. Okay. We have Muslims taking over. America has
kind of fallen down to fourth place, I noticed. Yep.
That's kind of off the radar for the moment. By
the way, they are here in Rotterdam. They are definitely
taking over here. And the flock cameras. flock cameras, I
really wanted to understand a little bit better because it
all folds into one. It's like the surveillance state and
really most stories about the flock cameras is law enforcement
officers stalking their ex-girlfriends, their wives, seeing who's cheating. It
doesn't seem like, well, then of course ICE. It doesn't
seem like there's really egregious stuff going on, but it
folds into the data centers where this is the surveillance
state and it's all going to be stored right next
door to us which none of that there's no evidence
of this at all But you piqued my interest with
your clip about this extra piece on a flock camera
pole that was in a Walmart parking lot. And it
was, you know, there were some people and they were
noticing that their Bluetooth would cut out. And so it
turns out. that There's multiple, first of all, the flock
system is not just for law enforcement. Walmart and other
big box stores contract with them to track license plates
in their parking lot. And for a number of different
reasons to see how traffic flow is going, but also
for thieves, you know, and then they shared amongst different
stores. Okay, these are shoplifters. They just parked, be on
alert. So it really doesn't have that much to do
with law enforcement because it is, after all, it's a
commercial company that runs this. But this additional bit, is
from an outfit called Signal Trace. And they have a
commercially available add-on or product that you can add on
to a flock pole. And I found a couple of
clips, and it's really quite disturbing because this is being
done commercially by the people you shop from. SignalTrace is
a signal intelligence system that's used in tandem with ALPRs.
And basically what this is, is think of a giant
war driver, a pole that sits in place and logs
every signal that drives by it. hotspot. Even the devices
that you're using on your day to day. And it's
not just limited to Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. It can also
supposedly log RFID signatures as well. This is where it's
kind of concerning because we've somehow moved past just mass
surveillance on a camera level. But the system is put
in place to log everything. Now here's what's weird. Signal
trace is so sophisticated that it will categorize devices that
it's seen traveling together and file it as one unit.
So if you constantly travel with a smartwatch, AirPods, Airphone,
and let's say a IoT device of some sorts, whether
it be a computer or something of the sort, it
will log that into its own group. That's another level
of monitoring because after everything has come together, it will
basically categorize that as you and label it with a
location paired with your face and location and this giant
hub that's constantly monitoring. This is mass surveillance on an
insane scale. So all of that data correlation provides a
unique fingerprint. And I've learned that it also can include
my hearing aids. They fingerprint me. So even if I
left my phone in the car, or didn't even bring
it with me. Your pet's RFID chip. Oh, wow. This
is powerful stuff, man. And then you think that this
is just one car or, you know, no. They're really
putting all of this together. Let's say that you got
out of your car and you got into an Uber.
The camera would then know that you have traveled from
a different car. It wouldn't need to just log your
license plate. license plate afterwards, then the camera would still
know and the systems put in place would note that,
that the person is no longer traveling in the same
vehicle that they were traveling in or is in an
Uber and where they might go based on other third-party
data. Yeah, this is fantastic because what people are mad
about is that they have signed The EULAs... And they've
given up on privacy, and now they're seeing that it's
being used. Yeah, law enforcement, sure. But it's being used
everywhere to manipulate prices, to understand your profile. Send you
coupons. Yeah, well, of course. I think most of what
it's going to be, try to sell you stuff. The
big promise was to give me the right hat at
the right moment, just when I was ready to buy
something. in my refrigerator the minute it's out.
so bad. You know, the LG TVs. I mean, they
literally are listening to you all the time. If you
look at the, you know, we have one. I'm like,
oh, my Lord. And we got a system update. It
says, oh, do you want to read the license? Yeah,
sure. I mean, yet with the remote control, my thumb
got tired of scrolling down. And then you get to
the all uppercase letters. And, you know, you're just screwed.
Like, we should do all of this. It's all our
own fault where we've allowed this to happen. And here
we are. Here's what Walmart just updated their app. key
address, social media info, browsing and search activity, keystroke patterns,
voice print, iris and retina imagery, face geometry, palm prints,
fingerprints, household income, education. I mean, it goes on and
on. I'm halfway through the list. So that's what you
gave up when you grabbed these apps at convenience. That
they give you, you know, oh, you get $10 off
if you join. I've been not taking my phone down
to breakfast here in the hotel. You're winning. I'm winning.
And they still go, good morning, Mr. Curry. You know,
you got to log into your breakfast. Could you please
scan your room key here? I mean, it's unbelievable how
far this has gotten. So before we get to anything,
I just want to explain something about artificial intelligence. Because
people are so negative about it. And I am completely
negative on the chatbots. From day one, I said it's
a parlor trick. It's bad. Don't use these things as
some kind of oracle that has all the knowledge. It
doesn't. It doesn't. I think Gemini... actually does a respectful
job at looking things up because it has direct connections
to Google. But that's, it's really, it's useless. Don't use
the things like this. And I was surprised to hear.
Jensen Wang, the only guy who has a company that's
making any kind of money, and it's insane money, which
is Nvidia. So we had the G20. It was North
Carolina, the G20 finance ministers. It was like the General
Scott Besant was there. Howard Lutnick, for some reason, was
the interviewer. Yeah, I thought that was weird, too. And
I thought that was an older clip. I saw a
couple of Ludnick clips. I'm like, Ludnick's there? That's weird.
And so this comes on the heels of OpenAI releasing...
ChatGPT6 Astra, which as far as I can tell just
does an amazing job at creating video stuff. It's so
powerful. Where's the list guy? Give me the list guy.
Come on. OpenAI is now introducing... What's it called? Astra.
Draw. He's so powerful. The most powerful AI ever invented.
But he... But it's for your safety. So Jensen Wang,
the whole, look, I'm the new Steve Jobs, look at
my leather jacket. He actually wasn't wearing the leather jacket
at this. He had a suit and tie on. He
made some points that... are correct. And I just wanted
to highlight a couple of things from his interview. So
we can get a better, because I've been living this
stuff for two years. I didn't just sit here and
complain and say it sucked. I dove into it. I
went really, really as deep as I could. I went
onto Linux to understand what the combination can do of
the so-called harnesses like Cloud Code and Hermes or Hermes.
What's the other one? Pi. All of them. I've tried
every single one of them to really see, okay, what
can be done with this? astounding results in productivity for
myself. Notice I haven't been able to replace John C
Dvorak with a robot so there are limitations to what
these things can do. But just a couple of clips
here that I got from Jensen. People are always interested
on where the world is going. If you were going
to give us sort of your big picture view, where
are we going? For this to be the Commerce Secretary,
like, does he really not know? Where are we going?
I'm just an interviewer. Go to MSNBC with these questions,
Commerce Secretary. Epstein was just my neighbor. Which we'd be
thinking about that we don't always talk about. You see
everything, really. All the companies in the world sort of
come and visit with you and sort of tell you
where they're going. picture of a set of ideas that
we don't usually hear about. This is almost as bad
as Bono, tell me, what is the song about? It's
an explainer. Can you give us an explainer? It's like
an explainer, which is just like... Yeah, explain it to
me like I'm five years old, please. Like I'm five,
yeah. Well, there's some things that we hear, and then
I'll juxtapose that against what I expect. And so, for
example, in the next couple of years, we are going
to achieve essentially called AGI. and it's always coming it's
coming uh and that's not an illogical thing to me
in fact i would argue that we're practically there today
okay so he starts off with some mumbo jumbo agi
which the the what that means has changed several times
in fact astra is supposed to be agi now but
it won't be there'll be something else so that the
it's smarter than inhuman is just no it's not true
but the the business model is interesting because it's a
bit like like Electricity it's a bit like mining Bitcoin.
In fact, they call them tokens So it's kind of
interesting to hear how they view this. So can you
talk a little bit about how compute? produces economics compute
Yeah, this is this is a big strange idea. The
idea is called a token and it this token is
a mathematical outcome of a lot of computation and this
token represents intelligence So first of all, it doesn't represent
intelligence. Gives you lots of smarts. It represents a word,
a phrase, you know, it's an abstraction. It's not intelligence.
You take all of these tokens, these numbers, you reformulate
them in such a way that it creates an image,
writes a paragraph, answers questions, solves problems. creates new ideas.
No, it doesn't. These tokens are mathematically produced in these...
computers that we make. And in a lot of the
same ways, if you go back a hundred years, a
couple hundred years, the world discovered this new idea called
energy, and you monetize it, dollars per kilowatt hours. Today,
it's dollars per million tokens. It's the same idea. It's
kind of invisible. It's hard to understand, but it's incredibly
valuable. Okay. So I disagree fundamentally that this is a
great business idea to have, you know, because you're basically,
these things are created with electricity. You need a lot
of it. So you might as well just say you're
translating electricity into tokens. Well, notice how he paused when
he got to creating new ideas. He like paused for
a second, like, should I say this or should I
not? say this? Yeah, that's total bullcrap. Because all these
things do is just have knowledge of patterns and it
brings the next pattern. But I do like the analogy
of electricity, because when electricity first came out, you know,
everybody was like, well, I'm going to die. You know,
I'm going to get electrocuted. My house is going to
burn down. People were very afraid of electricity. And I
think that we're seeing this fear of AI in a
different way, like it's going to take my job, And
all these bozos have said that over and over and
over again, except for the one guy who's actually making
money, not by selling tokens, but by selling people the
hardware to create the tokens. So he's sitting in a
really, in a good place to say whatever he wants.
But this is what it got me. And this is
the part that I have come to understand after two
years of working with every single large language model, the
frontier models, source models, running it on my own hardware.
This is what it's ultimately, this is what it's about.
You know, people, people, if you just take a step
back and think about computer technology. In the last 50
years, I... Computers has been a tool for about, you
know, 10, 20 million people. And if you don't know
how to, the only, the way to take advantage of
this capability is to know how to program the computer,
design the computer. And so that's my career, designing computers
and programming computers. It's really narrowly focused on 10, 20,
30 million people around the world. For the first time,
anybody in the world can program a computer. You can
program a computer using human language. Yes, this has always
been, Silicon Valley's ultimate goal and we saw it early
on i want to make an app that does this
well oh early clouds in the sky oh no before
all before all that i mean you may be too
young rob do um we had on the mac we
had a hyper talk hyper card and the the promise
there was you can just can you draw these cards
and you have and you could put a button on
it and you could make the button do something and
it could do a calculation Mac Plus. I'm like, oh,
this is so cool. I can build computer programs without
being able to write code. And of course, no, it
didn't work. Then they came out with AppleTalk. Was it
Apple Talk? No, not Apple Talk. It was, was it
Apple Talk? I had a voice synthesizer on my TI
when I was a kid. No, we all did that.
Of course we did. But AppleScript, that's what AppleScript, AppleTalk
was the networking. And AppleScript was, oh, you can just
type in words and you'll be able to program. No.
And there was no documentation. It was incredibly difficult. And
really all we had was basic. You know, with basic,
how far did you get? You can make a basic
game and that's about it. And it took forever. But
it was never, I could just tell my computer what
to do. And so you look at the power that
we have in phones, in desktops and laptops, incredibly powerful,
but we have been excluded. There's no way. How many
times I've tried to learn how to program in Python.
It's like a curly brace, curly brace, and I want
to shoot myself. And I copy-paste the example, and I
kind of understand what it's doing. And no, it just
doesn't work. So now you have... like Claude Code as
a simple example, but there's the OpenAI's version and you
have, what is it, the Grok thing that Elon bought,
and so the Codex. you can pretty much say, all
right, if you've ever seen any of the pictures that
I post about my studio, if you look at that,
if you look closely, I'm running an operating system, which
is GNU Linux. I'll say it right for everybody, GNU
Linux. But it's the... the install is Omachi, O-M-A-R-C-H-Y. And
it's really quite simple. You download it onto a USB
stick, stick it in your computer. You tap F1 a
thousand times and the BIOS comes up and you're like,
I don't know what to do. And it says boot
from the USB stick. If you can get that far,
then it'll install this computer system. And it kind of
comes with these agents built in. And so I just
said, you know, I really want a better play out
system for my podcast. I have it in my head.
I want eight players at the top. I want a
cart wall on the side with multiple tabs. On the
left hand, because I've been using all different programs to
do this on Macs and Windows. So on the left
hand side, I want my file browser, just the folder
that I'm working in. I want to be able to
search really quickly for old clips and jingles that people
ask for. And it built it for me. I did
it maybe in 25 minutes. You know, and the downside
of all these programs is you update something and then
it'll have a cascading effect of screwing with these programs
for some reason if they're not updated. Well, there's all
kinds of caveats everywhere. But in essence, I created this
and it's been working for eight months, maybe going on
nine months now. I've improved little things. Like, for example,
hey, whenever I get the donation spreadsheet, it's a real
pain because I have to then go search for the
different jingles that people ask for. So I made a
donation spreadsheet reader, literally what I called it, donation tracker.
And you open up the spreadsheet in this program. which
I just told my robot, which is Claude Code in
this case, build this. And when you find a jingle
in there, make sure that I just click on that
cell and it loads it up in the player, in
the thing that I already made before. And it did
that. So, I mean, this is... That's efficient. Very efficient.
And I'm just a numb nut. You know, I'm not
a programmer. I didn't have to learn to code Obama.
And this is, without a doubt, this is what the
revolution is. is. And the great thing about it is
ultimately you don't need to have Sam Altman or Elon
Musk or anybody else involved in it. You can do
that with open source, with stuff that's freely available. I
suggest you support these projects wherever you can. And you
can just build the experience or the tool or the
application that you want. And no one can stop you.
No one can tell you, oh, no, that's not the
way it should work. If you want it to be
funky and stupid, you make it that way. And to
me, this is the revolution. And that's what Wang is
saying correctly. And so when he makes this statement, I
think he's correct. We have to remind the industry that,
and I think the dialogue around safety and security is
all fantastic.
Color Proud If you think about each one of your
countries, what is the worst outcome that could happen in
this technology industrial revolution? The worst outcome is that you
don't take advantage of it. that you are left behind.
That is the single worst outcome. And that outcome comes
from, that outcome could happen if we talk about the
technology with fear, with uncertainty. The leadership talks about it
with so much concern, so much fear, and all the
conversations around safety and security. It has to be balanced
with a lot of conversation about prosperity and a lot
of conversation about what it can do. And so I
don't think it's about one or two. Yeah, so that's
the marketing problem. That's the problem that these guys have
created themselves because they want government regulation so that you
can't just run your own model because you might be
a terrorist and create a biological weapon or become a
cyber attacker. They've done that to protect their business, which
is unprotectable because open source is here. It's taken over.
And if you've got a teenage kid, give an old
laptop, up Omachi on a thumb drive and say, here,
go at it and then program something with it. When
Omachi was a Quattro, the fourth version, it has agents
right in there. You can load it up. It's pretty
intuitive, open source ones. And you can even get an
account on OpenRouter and use that for free for a
little while. But it's all very efficient. It's open. And
this is where your kids need to be. Throw out
their phones. Delete the chatbots. That's the antichrist. But the
stuff underneath that creates code is amazing, and this, I
believe, is the correct prediction. We've had the benefit in
the United States to have built one of the largest
infrastructures. And because of the pro-energy growth and the speed
and the regulatory environments in the United States, we've been
able to build out really quite substantially. And you look
at what's going on in the United States. across every
single sector from chip fabs to computer plants to AI
factories. Boy, the number of jobs that we're creating is
just hundreds of thousands. And as you know, and this
year alone, we're going to invest close to a trillion
dollars into the world's, into the United States infrastructure. And
that's generating enormous economic growth and of course, a lot
of jobs. It's going to be a job creator. No
technology has ever killed jobs. This is not going to
be it. That's bull crap from these guys trying to
protect their businesses. Don't buy into it. With Omachi, the
only limit is your imagination. I need a whole end
of show mix of that. But Omachi, I mean, I've
been using Linux for, I'm sorry, GNU Linux. Whenever you
say Linux, you get these. Richard Stallman comes out of
the closet. That's right. What are you doing? me over
the head or cotton gin or someone in the troll
room yes um oh much it really is revolutionary how
well it works out of the box um i i
run it i've been running on all my computers I
mean, it's fantastic. And you don't need anything from Silicon
Valley at all, at all, at all. But, hey, you
run a small business, create your own system that will
help you with whatever you can dream up. You can
make it. You can create your own tracking system, your
own reordering system that's catered to you. And then even
your own customer service system. Like, this is how I
like to reach out to my customers. There is really,
it is the sky's the limit with a lot of
this stuff, depending on how it's used. Are they really
teaching people, though, how to use it correctly? No. I
see these courses and stuff like learn AI in seven
days, and I'm like, I don't think they're really teaching
you. No, it's even worse. The big computer companies like
Google is number one. It used to be Apple. But
Google has infiltrated our education system with Chromebooks. Oh, yeah.
Like, oh, yeah, you've got to use this, and you've
got to use the – Now, if you just want
to get your feet wet – with what is possible.
I don't like grok bot and all that stuff, but...
or Grok itself. But XAI came out with literally something
called GrokBot. And it's an application. You download it. and
you get a computer in the cloud, which is why
I don't like it, because you can use a computer
on your desktop that you own. But if you just
want to see what's possible, and you can create these
little bots, and you say, okay, what you're supposed to
do, bot, is you're supposed to look for this particular
YouTube video with this content in it, and let me
know when it's there, and make a clip, just as
an example. You can also say, here's another bot, Whenever
I get an email with this spreadsheet, I want you
to get the totals and do something with it. You
can literally program that computer in the cloud, in the
sky, which you can even see the screen in this
application to do that stuff. It's fun to kind of
play with it and see how it works. The downside,
of course, is it's not yours. You got to pay
for it eventually. And it's not yours. It's in the
cloud. And then they could go away. It could break.
Elon could change his mind, whatever. But that is the
essence of what you can do. And I have four
of my own agents, open source, running all the time
on my own hardware at home. And it's changed my
life. It has changed my life. I'm going to have
to do a comic strip blogger keeps wanting me to
do an interview for this AI Arch Wizard YouTube channel,
which is just so annoying. But I think I want
to show how I have my robots working to cut
clips. I mean, it's really astounding. It goes in. Yeah,
I spent hours cutting clips this morning, and I'm sitting
there, I'm wondering, how could this be more efficient? Because
you have to find the clip, send the link, then
you download it, and then you have to pull it
into the editor, cut it on each side, make sure
the levels are good, dump it out, and give it
a name. Yeah. You know, times 50. Exactly. So I
got over 100 clips. Not that I'm going to play
them all. That's what's going to happen, though. You're going
to have 120 clips, and you're going to have 150
clips. No, no, no. because I've already told my robot
it was out of control. But I was vaping and
I was holding the baby. So I was busy with
other things, not paying attention. The robot was going nuts.
But I literally say, okay, here's Jensen Wang. It's 20
minutes. He sat with Lutnick. I want you to pull
out a couple of clips for me. It goes in.
First thing it does is gets a transcript. So it
downloads the audio, lo-fi, gets a transcript. Then it makes
decisions. You know because they can't actually hear anything it
can't hear when someone you know is breathing in to
get into the next sentence or Sometimes people just speak
weirdly and so it would make these cuts in the
wrong places. It's gotten to the point where It will
create 50 clips for me within half an hour just
based on links I've given it. And then the longest
amount of time is me listening to every single clip
it made. Maybe 10% I have to fix, and that
fix is teaching it to do something. So think of
the productivity gain that I've gotten. I have now time
to sit with my granddaughter thanks to this technology. And
vape. And vape, which is a double bonus. So here's,
I think, is this the final clip? Oh, can you
send, are you able to send the audio directly to
your earbuds, your hearing aid? Oh yeah, no, well I
use a different program called Obsidian. Okay. You know, it's
like you kind of save files into it. It's like
a Dropbox, only a little more structured. So it has
a version of that Dropbox program on my computer at
home, and so it cuts these clips, and they just
show up in a folder, and I can listen to
them right there on the phone. telling you this stuff
is amazing the chatbot stuff again antichrist completely and i
i'm not even joking about that That is the worst.
And they're moving away from it. That was the parlor
trick that got it all going. But once they saw
that there's no money in that and it's way too
expensive to run that, it was really anthropic, Claude, that
moved to code. They really focused on that. And that's
the revolution. There's nothing. There's no other revolution in artificial
intelligence than you as a mere mortal being able to
create your own. own applications on your own computer. That's
it. If something else comes along, I'll let you know.
Robots, humanoids, okay, sure, whatever. Fix the battery life first.
Speaking of robots, I got an Elon clip on a
billion robots. It came out a couple days ago. Did
you hear this one? Let me see. Where is it?
Elon. Elon on one billion robots. When you make the
robots, the robots will... will start manufacturing the robots, so
you get a recursive effect. So it starts off very
slowly, but then it grows at an explosive rate. So
if you say like 10 years from now, I would
say there are well over a billion humanoid robots. And
the productivity per robot will be probably five times that
of a human, meaning that the productivity in 10 years
of humanoid robots, and I think this is a conservative
estimate, by the way. to put serious money betting on,
that there will be at least a billion robots in
10 years, and that those robots will be at least
five times the output of a human, meaning the billion
humanoid robots will be more productive than all humans combined.
Okay, so he's mixing a lot of metaphors here. And
he's talking like Elon, which is always bull crap. Oh,
self-driving will be here in 1995. Whatever. Okay. So, yeah,
maybe. But the metaphor of recursive software development has been
a dream of software developers forever. The software will write
itself. The software will write itself. To some degree, there
is some of that, but, you know, there's just no
I've seen no evidence that you can let it go
and it creates everything perfectly and it's good to go.
In fact, I've seen the opposite of that. And. when
you remove the human knowledge from even the high level
of what is being created, so far it hasn't worked
out very well. When he says robots, I'm not quite
sure what he means. So, you know, the robots will
create the, well, that's kind of happening just in software.
Will robots be building robots? Mmm. There's good robots out
there. I've had a robot in my house for five
years and I love it. It's called the Shark Vacuum.
And it's a fantastic robot. One application. It does a
great job. you know, after five years, four years, time
for a new one, they're half the price, is fantastic.
Yeah, that's a robot. Is it monitoring your conversations? Of
course it is. It's mapped the entire house, sent it
off to China. So when the military age men from
China who are now in sleeper cells, when they come
to take me and my wife, they'll know exactly what
the layout of the house is. Get Adam Curry chatbots
now. But this, you know, this, to me, the psyop
of, these robots fighting each other and running marathon races,
which actually I think the Chinese seem to be kind
of excited about what can be done with robotics and
artificial intelligence. And here we've just gone into this, this
sucks, this all psyops, going to take our jobs away,
the data centers are no good. This is an incredible
opportunity for America. And I don't know if we're going
to pull people out of this downward spiral that we're
in about this stuff. And it's their own fault for
being such a-holes about, so dangerous we can't even give
it. Yeah. Oh, hi, darling. And you're saying that from
the creator perspective, not even the user perspective. No. Which
the user perspective is very kind of down on AI
because I don't think they've been – when they roll
this stuff out, they don't give you a good user
manual to put it together. Case in point, we got
some lights the other day. And there's a front attachment
for a scrim that you put on the front. A
scrim? And a scrim, which would be like a piece
of cloth to kind of dampen the light. Oh, okay.
Yeah, I got you. So it's got this piece that
you – push it in and then you turn it
and i couldn't get this thing for the life of
me to fit and they're like it's supposed to fit
it's supposed to fit well i had to figure out
that i had to take the hand the little handle
off that you're supposed to use to make it fit
better you have to take that off then there's two
pieces on the bracket that you have to remove the
top one and then it will fit but there's nothing
in the directions that are telling you this and that's
the problem they don't they don't show like here's a
piece they're just like here's the equipment go use it
and we're not gonna you have to figure it out
yourself on how to do it ask the AI chatbot
how to do it. The, um... A16. A16, they do
podcasts. I think it's a podcast network. They had a
couple of guys talking about data centers. I think I
agree with their stance on this stuff. And this is
what President Trump is saying. And of course, everyone hates
him right now. I mean, his war of choice and
everything's all messed up and it's no good and he's
orange. But I really think that there's something to this
revitalizing the working class, at least for the next few
years in the United States, by building data centers, of
which we already have 4,700. Everybody might be out of
a job like that. Eliezer Yudkowsky guy says, if we
build it, everyone will die. And it's like, how about
if we build it, like we're going to cure cancer.
We're all going to live forever. I thought one of
the.
The best things Dario said was, like, what we need
to do is stop talking about curing cancer and actually
cure cancer. And actually cure cancer and actually make breakthroughs.
But just somebody, like, my favorite line in the Bible
is, the truth shall set you free. Yes. But the
only person who can, the only group that can tell
the AI industry's truth is the AI industry. They need
to just start telling the truth. Yes. okay, you're opposed
to data centers. Well, you know what? It's probably the
best thing that has ever happened to working class Americans.
Yeah, exactly. You know, it's like going to college might
be significantly NPV negative now because you can go learn
how to be an electrician, a plumber, an HVAC tech,
and make ungodly amounts of money. So this has been
amazing for working class Americans. We now have a lot
of data that particularly with behind the meter power generation,
when a data center goes in, It transforms a town.
Like, tax revenue, it doesn't double. It, like, 10xs. And
it is revitalizing all of these, like, dying small towns
all over America. Yeah, that's kind of what your penetration
tester was talking about. Although, I think a good idea
is to get a bond. Yeah, have them post a
bond because a lot of them will go out of
business. But yeah, it's a catch-all. But, you know, the
next billionaire is going to be the guy who can
take the clip that says, like this and make it
quiet. So you should play that so people can hear
what a data center sounds like across the street from
your house. - Wait a minute, do you have a
clip of that? - Oh yeah, it's called "Data Center
Sounds Like This." - Okay, here we go. *laughter* And
it's going to pan over and there's a house. You
can hear it go down just a little bit because
of the directional mic. And you're like, okay. Now, if
you can figure out how to make those things quiet,
you're going to make a billion dollars easily. Well, that's
all but placement, obviously. These guys talked about Loudoun County,
Virginia, which is million-dollar homes. My favorite is Loudoun County,
Virginia, which is the highest per capita income zip code
in the U.S., or county in the U.S., and it
has the highest density of data centers, and they make
a tremendous amount of tax revenue from data centers. We
should do this everywhere. Yeah, well, it's actually very funny.
said, "Oh, you're for data centers? I'd like to see
them put in the highest income zip code and the
highest income county." And they're like, "Actually, the highest income
zip code in America and the highest income county has
the highest per capita concentration of data centers." So we've
done that. And it worked out really well. I had
a data center in 2002 in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. The
data center noise that you're hearing, that's not your typical
data center housing computers and running GPUs. That data center
is a typical Bitcoin mining operation. from a couple years
ago. Because they didn't need to liquid cool them. Now
everything's liquid cooled, which is also not taking all your
water. And they basically just had a hole in the
roof and just sucked the air from outside and blew
it out the top. That's what those noisy data centers
are. They're Bitcoin miners. So all of that is not
in play anymore. These data centers... that just run GPUs,
they're not, you know, the liquid cooling is silent. Well,
and when they're talking about the tax revenue and the
amount of money they make for the region, my friend,
they have a neighborhood, and they're going to bulldoze this
entire neighborhood of beautiful, huge homes and give everybody around
$4 million per house so they could build more data
centers because around them is nothing but data centers. Yeah.
And it doesn't, you're right, it doesn't sound like what
we just played, the data center sounds like this. Yeah,
no, it doesn't. It doesn't. Anyways, that was my AI
data center. story for today. I just wanted to get
it out there. I want to be on record as
saying... The chat bots are evil. stay away from them,
keep them away from your kids, but give your kids
an old laptop and tell them to install Omachi and
work on some, build something with a harness, as it's
called, with an agent. Build something, and you'll see. This
has huge potential. Yeah, I'm going to get my son
working on that. I just pulled up the website a
little bit ago, my oldest son, and probably my second
son, too. He's 16, and he's probably the smartest in
the family, if you ask me. Well, he takes after
his dad a lot. We don't always see eye to
eye, but I think he's probably got – it's easy
for him to do things. Schools, no problem. in your
way to overcome. Because what happens is you think life's
always easy and then, oh, all of a sudden, you
get your head spun around. Now, I have a clip.
You were talking about the flock cameras. And on the
flock website, when you go to their website, it says
that you were keeping the information for 30 days and
now they're like, oh, no, now we're only keeping the
license plate data for seven. Well, the city of Sheboygan
is deflocking their area. You hear how long they have
the data, all this data that they've kept. It's amazing
to me. Okay, you're going to have to help me
with which card. Oh, sorry. Sheboygan deflocking. Sheboygan. Sheboygan. I
think it's in Wisconsin. Sheboygan. Ah, of course. Sheboygan. Yes.
Flock safety tried to sell traffic data to the city
of Sheboygan that had been captured by Sheboygan's own flock
camera. Oh, wait a minute. So they put them down
and then they make the deal? They try to sell
it after they've installed the flocks? They just went and
installed the flocks, and they're like, hey, we have this.
And I think they had already inked a deal to
do this. But then I think when they saw how
much data they had, they kind of freaked out. Flock
Safety tried to sell traffic data to the city of
Sheboygan that had been captured by Sheboygan's own flock cameras.
Fox 6 investigator Brian Paulson is here with more breaking
news about this embattled company known for its license plates.
scanning these license plates. Well, they covered up, City of
Sheboygan covered up, I should say, their flock cameras, said
they were working to cancel their contract with the company.
Well, now we know why. And the reason for that,
Mayor Eric Sorensen telling the Fox 6 investigators, earlier this
summer, a flock sales rep emailed the city's engineering department,
offering to sell the city five years worth of data
on traffic speeds and movements captured by those flock cameras.
That means Sheboygan's flock cameras have been tracking your driving
speeds and movement patterns, The city says Flock never told
them about. Flock, of course, already facing nationwide backlash over
officers misusing the data for personal reasons like stalking romantic
partners. Chief Zempel said this new level of undisclosed data
collection undermines his trust in the system, and he's not
alone. Yesterday, Kenosha Police Chief Patrick Patton told me Sheboygan's
experience is part of the reason Kenosha is moving on
from Flock as well. I think it's just fun to
say Sheboygan. Sheboygan! - Oregon is just a fun name.
- Wisconsin's a very nice state if you've never been
there. Very green, so much green. You can just drive
around this place. And I was there, it was during
the primaries for 2016. And just a beautiful state. And
Appleton, Wisconsin just felt like a nice small town. If
you want a small town atmosphere, they have a nice
small town. Then they have the outer loop areas that
are kind of suburban-y, but it just had a very
cool feel. I just thought I should shout out to
the Wisconsinites out there. We have them. We have people
in Sheboygan, in fact. Yes, exactly. Gitmo Nation is big
and bad and worldwide. It's probably cold in the winter,
though. No, it's very cold. It's very cold. This is
kind of tripping me out, Rob Dew. What's that? Well,
I'm looking at your clip list. And you actually have
titled three clips here. with the suffix anal. Well, that
was an ode to John. This is an ode to
John C. Dvorak. Well, I think you might as well
get into these clips because the fact that you have
some anal clips is just, this analysis must be fantastic.
So this is, I believe his full name is Garland
Favarito. And I've interviewed him one time. He is an
investigator out in Georgia. And he's been looking at the
shenanigans going on in Georgia since the 2020 election. Right.
And when you talk to this guy, he is a
walking encyclopedia. He just bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop,
bop. And he's talking to Christy Lee, a former reporter.
She was at InfoWars a few years ago. She's moved
on. I believe this is a Lindell TV clip. lindell
tv Where they allow you to put your opinions out
in your interviewing, where they don't always do that in
other places. But what they're talking about is the ruling
with the mail-in ballots and how that was just a
stalling tactic basically by the judge because she kept making
these rulings, and then they'd have to go to the
Supreme Court, and the Supreme Court would rule, knock it
back down, then she'd do another ruling. And he's basically
analyzed her pattern, and at the end, he's saying she's
basically a partisan hack trying to do anything to delay.
this so like we covered last show well they're not
going to have time the postal service is not going
to have time to do this because oh it just
happened now but they're this happened back in march when
trump first tried to get the postal service in on
this so they did have time now they might not
have time now because we're into september and maybe there's
a final ruling in you know two or three weeks
and then you know you're a month away from the
election so you have to you have to get this
stuff especially when you're dealing with this amount of uh
these large data basis but yeah this is garland uh
favorito we'll start with uh ruling one anal What Judge
Ndiri Talwani did. You just wrote about that. She's already
blocked key parts of the president's mail voting order. And
this week she warned that rushing new postal rules could
mean major disenfranchisement. Is she stopping chaos or stopping the
one lever Washington has on mail ballots? I mean, it's
so frustrating. And her rulings, which have been overturned by
the Georgia Supreme Court, date back months. Now she's basically
given her political friends, the 23 Democrat AGs, some ammunition
to say, well, oh, you know, there's not enough time,
so on and so on. Well, the reason there is
not enough time is exactly what you just said, Christy.
She created the chaos. It wasn't President Trump, but in
making false rulings that had to be overturned by the
United States Supreme Court. delayed everything for months and basically
created the chaos. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, Rob.
But judges, even federally approved judges, they don't have to
be lawyers or necessarily... schools in law, do they? No,
in fact, it's okay for some of these judges who
aren't lawyers to own businesses where they're sending their inmates,
the people they proclaim guilty. Right, right, exactly. But people
don't understand that thing. Oh, well, you know, a federal
judge. A judge. A judge knows what they're doing. But
that's far from it. I remember we were much more
involved in local politics than I ever was living in
Fredericksburg. But I saw who was running for Gillespie County
judge. Like, she can run? No, no, no, no. I
don't want her a judge of anything. You know, it
was kind of weird. I didn't really even realize that.
And so this is the same, I think the same
with the federally appointed judge, judges. So then they rule
by feelings is what you end up getting. Pretty much,
yeah. Yeah. So then he goes on through this and
just explaining how the things she's doing, you have to
actually have a damage before you can make these rulings.
Right. You have to be hurt. You have to be
able to show on the doll where you were hurt
before you can do anything like that. Right. And she's
ruling before these judgments even come in or before the
announcements even come in of these programs. She's already had
her thing ready to, I guess, spring it on them
to kind of, you know. She's playing the Tar Baby
game. She's throwing Tar Babies out there to get people
caught up in them. And, you know, obviously it's working.
So it's a strategy that they're going to keep doing.
She speculated. the claims that the state AGs have. There
was no evidence that the claims were true because in
any court of law you have to have what they
call a "particulized injury." So you have to have a
specific injury that you were suing about. Well, the rule
has never been implemented. In fact, when they filed the
case, the rule hadn't even been published. And there was
no way she has to know that that was an
illegitimate ruling in the first place. So she's using her
political motives rather than actually rule on facts and evidence.
But isn't that isn't that isn't this what eventually went
to the Supreme Court and the Supreme Court said that,
like, you know, there was no harm. So, you know,
it doesn't count right now. Was this now after all
that this, you know, he then he explains that how
the Supreme Court basically admonished her. told her and they
gave her a lecture and told her there's six different
ways that this your argument is wrong you have to
have you have to fill these out and at this
point you would think the supreme court could go hey
and now we're just taking away your judgeship because now
you're just wasting everyone's time i don't know i don't
know what you do with some of these judges because
they it's like they can't be touched and they're just
allowed to muck up the works i mean you have
to have basics to move these things forward it's like
a frivolous uh lawsuit yeah and she was actually admonished
up one side and down the other by the Supreme
Court over that very thing. They listed like six different
types of speculation she would have.
to do to reach the conclusion that she reached in
the initial injunction. And that was, of course, each one
of the six would throw the case out because you
have to have a concrete particularized injury, which is what
they explained to her. And that's something that literally every
lawyer out of law school knows that you have to
have a concrete particularized injury to sue in civil court.
So it's not a matter of her being stupid. I
think it has to be a matter of her being
corrupt. being political it's all about the midterms and obviously
there's at least 26 states who don't want this to
happen um And I presume most of them are Democrat
states, but I'm not even so sure. I think this
is... Well, Nevada just pulled a bunch of people off
the rolls. I think it's like 400,000 or something. Really?
Yeah, I think it was Nevada. I guarantee you, if
you just gave me the voter rolls, which is just
a spreadsheet, you can get it. They have to give
it to you if you ask for it. I could
vibe code this in a day. Just give me an
old IBM laptop. Give me a ThinkPad. I'm sure I
can do it. I got a couple of clips on
this. Because, of course, Ms. Now, MS Now, They just
keep on hyping up the Jamie Raskin whistleblower, who is
not really a whistleblower because nothing illegal has been done.
The so-called whistleblower, who was anonymous, hiding behind whistlebloweraid.org, is
just saying, well, you know, the project's no good, man.
With just 59 days now to go before the midterm
elections, no less, this week an anonymous federal whistleblower came
forward with a warning about, you guessed it, this very
same problem the whistleblower alleges that the u.s postal service
is moving forward with a, quote, secretive, rushed, chaotic, and
fundamentally flawed process to implement Trump's order on mail-in voting.
You just have to understand that they're talking about a
whistleblower. There's no whistleblower. What is the crime here? It's
rushed? That's not a crime. So you're not a whistleblower.
You're just someone saying something. He got an opinion. He
got an opinion. Hey, man, that's like your opinion. I
got an opinion about this, man. It would require states
to give the Postal Service lists of voters approved to
receive mail-in ballots. This is not a requirement. It's a
requirement for the state to give that to anyone who
asks for it. And according to this whistleblower, that includes...
Quote, half of the so-called whistleblower to Blumenthal's office. And
no, they're just talking out of their collective butts. This
whistleblower, that includes. Quote, the creation and implementation of an
entirely new and untested set of IT systems, including the
Federal Ballot Mail Portal. Hold my beer. Hold my beer.
I'm going to vibe code that for you. A system
designed to verify Federal Mail ballots. What could go wrong?
Nothing. Claude Cohn's got it handled, man. According to the
report, an ordinary process of this scale could take up
to nine months to a year. But the whistleblower says
it appears the USPS, quote, discarded best practices to speed
up the project for a September 1st rollout. Didn't you
say that the other day? Like, Elon's probably going to
get pulled. Hey, Elon, build that for me. I definitely
think he's in on it. I mean, I have no
information, knowing either way, but that's my Redbook prediction. grokbot
okay just watch it'll be fine you don't want to
know what the warning said Whoa, it's dramatic. You know
what the warning said? You want to know what the
warning said? What is it? Catastrophic failure. Catastrophic. Which could
derail the midterm elections. No, it might delay mail-in ballots
coming in, but we wait weeks for those anyway. That's
how we win elections. I don't see how it will
derail anything. Importantly, the whistleblower also alleges that the Postal
Service stepped out of line by continuing to work on
the system during an ongoing legal battle. Federal Judge Indira
Talwani has already temporarily blocked key parts of the mail-in
ballot rule, and she extended that block. Is that the
lady? Oh, yeah, that's her. What's that? Tawalny. Tawalny. Tawalny.
T-A-L-W-A-N-Y. The administration appealed that within hours. In arguments the
day before, Talwani pressed the Justice Department, asking, quote, so
we're going to do a test run on this election?
Oh, my goodness. She added, we're not playing an intellectual
puzzle game. We are talking about people's right to vote.
No, they have the right to vote. We're only going
to test a vaccine on 300 million people? What could
go wrong? Do you guys know that this is all
happening as the first round of ballots were sent out
this week? Oh, no. one that can prevent millions of
Americans from voting. But that has taken a whole new
level when you remember what the president seems hell-bent on
doing, restricting the vote in November. So it makes you
think, if the whistleblower was right when they said it
raises questions about whether catastrophic failure... would be a feature
rather than a bug. Now that's an interesting point. I
kind of like that. And then you go, we can't
have the mail-in ballots anymore because it's a catastrophic failure.
Yeah, it could be a future. Now, guess where Judge
Tawalny went to school. Where do you think she got
her jurist doctor? She is a lawyer. Where do you
think she got it from? Berkeley. UC Berkeley. What? Wait,
did you look it up? Was I right? You were
100%. Oh, no, 100%. Yeah, okay. So here's what could
go wrong. In past elections, when you mail ballots, the
state will go, they'll print out the ballots, they'll have
them printed, and they'll go in batches, right? There's not,
you know, wave a wand and a million, 10 million,
100 million ballots just show up, right? They take trucks,
they take printers, so states would go down and they
would take a batch, 10,000 ballots, and they'd deliver them,
right? Yeah, we saw that happen in the middle of
the night. We'll deliver them to you now. And ordinarily,
after printing out a standard manifest like you do for
any mailing, you put it on top, you take it,
you drop it off, you're done, right? Now the rule
has a number of steps. And at the end of
all these other steps where you're printing things, comparing things
against lists, getting permission to bring these ballots down, now
at the very end, they're doing... Wait a minute. I
would expect this printing things verified against lists to already
be in place, but that seems to be something new
they just thought. Wow, we have to do that now?
We've got to verify against the list? Another spot check.
And any failure, any failure of a ballot to read,
there's barcodes that could be smudged, the equipment has certain
error rates. If there's a failure for the sampling they
test, the whole thing goes back. And what ProPublica... Wait
a minute. Who says the whole thing has to go?
I don't understand. Well, when they do read ballots on
some of these, at least in Georgia, they showed this,
of the lady putting ballots in, she wouldn't quite finish
a batch. She'd get to like 98, and then there'd
be an error, and then she'd run them again. But
if they don't reset the number, those get added. So
instead of 100 ballots, you get 198 ballots. your feature
not that's your feature oh okay that's your guy looking
at the chad the hanging chair okay so what he's
saying is hey that really sucks instead of being able
to run them twice with a smudge barcode now we
can only run them once oh no the sample they
test the whole thing goes back and what pro publica
um indicated in reporting pro publica yeah i love those
guys is that maricopa county had raised concerns about this
because they have charges of a million ballots that go
out in these mailings right so a million ballots could
go to the post office they check a few one
barcode's not readable maybe the machine's not working maybe it's
smudged the whole thing goes back they have to do
the whole thing again print it print out manifest make
sure the manifests are approved and then bring it all
back again so it's really a it seems it seems
just seems to me that um something as important as
votes and ballots should be correct and so if it's
incorrect sorry yeah you gotta do it over again and
why why stuff. Why is this such a chore? Why
is this so horrible? Well, like the autograph, the signature
verification, they were looking at that in some of these
states, and they would run it at like 98 DPI,
so you'd have this crappy looking signature, that then they
would try to compare it to the signature, and they
were just like letting them through, letting them through. And
even those, you could tell those signatures don't match, because
people were putting the images out there. I think that
happened in Arizona in the last couple of elections. manifesto
approved, and then bring it all back again. So it's
really a, systemically a catastrophic, potentially allows for catastrophic failure.
No, it allows for catastrophic failure. I don't know if
it's catastrophic. It's not all, not all the votes are
mailing. But then Emma's now. they suddenly they'd like to
compare this to some other problem some other government system
that was being built i might point out during the
biden administration the department of veterans affairs is another example
oh yeah veteran affairs and it's it's massive ongoing electronic
health modernization project the goal it seems like a little
different than than ballots but okay well there is pretty
straightforward you update the old one use critical software to
store and track veterans health information. But the rule has
been not so simple. According to the Washington Post, early
deployments of this system had a host of issues, including
disappearing notes, prescriptions logged with wrong dosages. Okay, I just
want you to listen to the comparison because you know
where this is going. If we don't do these votes
right, people will die. And there was a 2023 FOIA
disclosure that revealed that the system played a role in
more than 4,400 cases of known harms, ranging from minor,
it says, to catastrophic, including six different deaths. you That
project was halted briefly in 2023 with a VA official
overseeing the effort admitting this, quote, for the past few
years we've tried to fix this plane while flying it.
Oh. But now deployment of the program... No, Mr. Bond,
we expect you to die. I just want to vote.
That's exactly the same thing we're doing here. We're fixing
the plane while flying it. But now deployment of the
program has resumed. The VA says the software issues have
been addressed. But just this week, the Government Accountability Office
told Congress four of their 18 concerns with the technology.
What are you texting me, Rob? Do. Oh, I just
text you a picture of a guy looking at a
hanging. I remember that guy. I mean, that guy, he
was good. His glasses aren't even good enough. He's got
to raise the glasses and look at it. You think,
you know, the Associated Press photographers like to raise your
glasses. I remember. Open the eyes. I think I was
in. I think I was in in Holland. And I
remember it was like two weeks and they couldn't figure
it out. Two weeks, there's nothing now. You know, it's
like, ah, three, four weeks. We take as long as
we want. It's a month to do the primary. Exactly.
So the president has not helped in his own... He's
not helping himself. with this Iran situation. Which as you
know, I still think it's a good idea. But it's
like blowing up freighters. No cargo ships. No. Well, yeah,
I think just stopping Iran's chokehold on on that and
stopping the cash flow from the revenue from all that.
I think that's a good idea. But this, you know,
the whole administration, they bumble around like Keystone cops from
time to time. Here's an example. The conflict is, quote,
small potatoes. But 18 U.S. service members have died. Nearly
800 have been wounded. And a conflict the president said
would only last four to six weeks. A deployment is
something completely different than he's been rolling out for a
year. Why would you even make that comparison? This is
dumb. We're seeing records of how the U.S. neighborhood Lincoln
was out for more than 250 days at sea. The
president making those comments as he defended Vice President J.D.
Vance, who earlier in the week claimed it was not
a war. I wouldn't call it a war. Right now
there is no active shooting. This week, Commerce Secretary Howard
Lutnick issued an apology after he says he misspoke I
think the way the president is playing Iran, right, there's
not, there haven't been American deaths. It's really just an
economic chokeout, which the administration is now executing more broadly.
Lutnick later saying he was thinking about the operation in
Venezuela. Oh, come on. That's even worse. Come on, give
these guys the hook. That is, that's just so dumb.
We got to keep him on. Lutnick's a good guy.
He's a friend. I wish they could just be honest
and say, hey, well, you know. Scott Besson is kind
of honest. He's at least telling people what it's about.
I have a Besson clip, Besson on China-Iran relationship. Yeah.
And it talks about the banking and what they're going
after. I think they just went after a bank in
Qatar. First of all, Iran only has about 30 million
barrels of oil or crude on the waters now. So
that's a mental amount that I think somehow this narrative
erupted that, well, if China is not on board, productive
quiet conversations here with the Chinese and
The other thing too is the real problem The Chinese
pay the Iranians in RMB. The RMB comes back to
the Gulf region, and whether it is through neighbors' shipping
that supplies over, or whether it is through banks such
as the one we put out of business in Dubai
on Friday, or whether it is the cash houses, those
are being closed down. So when that money cannot be
converted to dollars, then the regime will starve. Yeah, and
everyone who is a part of the cash flows of
the regime, which is drugs and terror and hookers and
all kinds of stuff. Which is good, but they're bumbling.
And... Then... So we know the CIA, Radcliffe, director of
CIA, went to Moscow. did some kind of talk. We
don't know exactly what the discussion was, but obviously it's
got to be about ending this kerfuffle with Ukraine because
Europe is just pushing and pushing and pushing. They want
every drone to be a Russian drone that is trying
to blow stuff up. They really want this war to
escalate and they want Russia to take that first step
as far as I can see. And so Think. I
think Trump has something, you know, in the works. But
then this is how he goes about. talking about it.
We heard President Trump earlier today say that he is
sending Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, to
Russia and Ukraine to present this proposal to end the
war there. Let's take a listen. Jared Kushner and Steve
Woodruff are expected to go to Kiev and Moscow. Are
they bringing with them new proposals? No, they're bringing with
them a proposal to end the war. Because I ended
eight wars. I hope you're proud of me. I ended
eight wars. I get no credit for it. I ended
eight wars. Did I get the Nobel Prize? No. Although
the person that got it was nice enough that she
gave it to me. I invented podcasting. Do I get
an award? No. Adam Carolla gets the credit. Imagine I
said that all the time. Imagine. So, yes, six trips
to Moscow and now to Kiev. Well, the two envoys
are really just trying to revive, attempt to revive long
stalled diplomacy. We don't know that there is actually anything
new in the proposal the president is having them bring
to Moscow. Remember, it was just last week the CIA
director was in Moscow with a warning for Vladimir Putin.
Do not escalate and do not get more aggressive against
other European countries that are in NATO. know has changed
is the situation on the ground. Ukraine has gained some
momentum that has changed President Trump's thinking about President Zelensky.
He's a bit warmer towards him. Really? I haven't heard
any warmer towards him. Thinks he's a winner, not a
loser. Oh, he's a winner. I haven't heard him say
that. Referring to him in the past. But what we
know with that is that just getting Steve Witkoff and
Jared Kushner on a plane to Kiev is an achievement
in and of itself. There have been at least a
half dozen trips to Moscow out that carried out by
Steve Witkoff, there have been zero to Ukraine. The last
high-level official that I know of was the Secretary of
the Army when he went last November to try to
learn from Ukraine that Secretary of the Army, Dan Driscoll,
no longer in the Trump administration. I don't know. I
mean, I definitely think that there's been messages going out
like, hey, don't mess, don't do it, don't blow up
something in Europe, and don't react when they say that
you did it. Right, yeah. I hope so. The quadcopter
with the faulty detonator. Yeah, because these guys, they're crazy.
The Europeans are crazy. Well, we know why. They need
the money. They do. That's the way they get the
money. And so, yeah, they're going to try to keep
this going. And they've been doing it. I think Trump
got in. He's like, oh, I'll be able to make
a phone call and get this thing started. I don't
think he realized who he was going up against. He's
going up against generational warfare. And these people love it.
And then, of course, all of this has only, you
know, the blowing up of Russian infrastructure. has uh has
just pushed the price of oil up even further, which
really screws up General Besson's promise. But I'm not going
to make a promise about when it's going to return
to $3. What I will say is that we have
to remember, why are we doing this? Number one, it's
so that Iran never has a nuclear weapon. And number
two, what we're doing right now is protecting commercial shipping
in order to ensure that we don't have a worldwide
energy crisis. have a worldwide energy crisis is because of
the leadership of the president, but also because of the
fine work of our military from Pete Hegseth on down.
But the Iranians are doing what the Iranians do. I
think that they're losing their capabilities by the day. I
think they're realizing, by the way, that their control over
the Strait of Hormuz is effectively gone. I thought that
was a clip of them talking about it. Yeah, that
was Vance. I know, but Besson had said, by Labor
Day, we'll have $3 oil. And that didn't happen. What
is it now? I mean, I know what it is
here. Tomorrow it's Labor Day. Right, but I know a
gallon of gas here is about $12. Oh, my gosh.
I paid, and it's gone up. So in the beginning
of last week, it was $3.29. And by the end
of the week, it was $3.68. Same gas station. Okay,
you're taking regular. You're not taking premium. Oh, yeah. No,
that's all I take. I don't buy into that 93
octane. Although I do get, if I ever go buy
a Buc-ee's, I get the no octane at all. No
octane? It's got no ethanol in it. It's like the
ethanol-free gas. Oh, and how does that drive? Is it
fast? It feels like I have a little more power
and I definitely get like maybe one to two miles
per hour. And I'm a V8 truck, so I get
one to two miles per hour extra in the mileage.
Yeah. I once had the hydroxy booster. I'm telling you,
that thing works. Diesel helps fuel the American economy, powering
the nation's truck fleet that transports almost everything we buy.
So when diesel prices rise, businesses pass that on to
consumers who ultimately pay the price. These days, truck driver
Carlos Freight gets sticker shock every time he fills up.
It's getting rough to do this job. Diesel hit an
all-time high this week, now more than $2 above where
it was when the war with Iran began. - This
time last year, we were just about in the range
of 8,000 hours. As of now, we're looking about $12,000
to $15,000 a week in diesel expenses. And that gets
passed on to the customer. It does. It does. I
don't know. I don't know. Eggs are going up. We
got the price of eggs down. Yeah, I know. And
they did a good job of doing that. I had
a couple clips from last week and it was, and
this might not help the, it was Duffy on truck
school closures. They went after a bunch of like a
hundred and so different. trucking schools and shut them down.
And they were, you know, one of the schools, their
classroom was an old bus. They'd bring people in and
teach them. Really? Yeah. And other ones, they did have
parking lots. I don't know if you have the clips
from 1900, but Duffy on school truck closures one, two,
and three. Yep. Very, very interesting. Here we go. What
goes on? Today, what we are announcing. is an emergency
executive shutdown of 110 driving schools. So these are driving
schools that account for 5,000 of the violations for English
proficiency. You have to speak English to operate a commercial
motor vehicle. I didn't create that rule. President Trump didn't
create that rule. That rule has been in place for
decades. And we have schools that know the rule and
still pass people through their school who can't speak the
language. And so there's 110 of them through a data
analysis that are the greatest offenders. As of today, those
schools are shut down. Hold on. Don't they have to
do a test? Don't they have to do like a
DMV test? Yeah, they have to take a test. And
they were giving people, and I'm looking at my clips
now. I might have done the same clip twice on
clip two, but it might be different. different sizes, but
they're supposed to give them a test. And some of
these places were just passing people through. They weren't even
giving them the English test. Go ahead. We also have
shut down 160 additional schools. These are schools that, in
essence, certify that they are qualified to train truck drivers.
However, they don't have space to even allow the truck
driver to actually get behind the wheel and drive. They
have unlicensed instructors doctors. So you have instructors who aren't
certified who are allegedly training the new truck drivers to
operate on American roadways. and they oftentimes didn't have classrooms.
One school that were shutting down was so flippant, as
they told us, their classroom was the school bus that
was in the backyard. That was the classroom for which
they were training new truck drivers. Nice. Yeah, I mean,
total fraud, of course. And I think the third one
has got a good kicker in it. testers that'll do
it on the state's behalf. What we found through our
data analysis is that many of the certified state testers
actually aren't adequately testing the potential drivers that they're going
to license. In one state, there's 10 skills testers. And
they work for the state. If they get through the
skills test, they're going to get a license. We have
10 skill testers. who have given over 2,000 driver's licenses
to people who can't speak English. This is the simplest
of tests. If you talk to anybody, if you give
a written test, which these testers have to do, you
know if they speak and read English. And over 2,000
could not speak or read English, and they still were
able to get a state license. So we are cracking
down on this fraud. And we are going to bring
safety back to American roadways. And I guess there's some
new jobs available then, I guess. There you go, yeah.
But that could also increase on the short term if
they're getting rid of thousands of truck drivers out there.
There's definitely going to be a need for more truck
drivers. or robot trucks, which is coming down the pipe.
Have you been following the gold? No. I don't even
know where it's at right now. I mean, I knew
it had gone. It hit its high a while back,
but I hadn't been. Well, that's actually the interesting. Here's
a little historical clip about about gold. For decades, the
U.S. has been concerned. This is Richard Quest. Oh, Richard
Quest. Is he from England? Yeah. Yeah. He's the guy
that there was such a great story where a New
Year's Eve he was found in some park in New
York. something and he had like he had like sex
toys in his boot and all kinds of stuff they
still have him on c i don't know what he's
got on anyone at cnn but he's been there forever
for decades the u.s has been considered one of the
safest places to store gold Fort Knox, 600 miles from
the Atlantic coast, Uncle Sam buried his store of gold.
Armed patrols and mechanized units escorted it to its new
home, which is big enough for all the gold in
the world. As a protection against civil war, foreign invasion,
and gangsters, the bullion is protected by electrified fences, gas-filled
steel barricades, and machine guns. Compare the Bank of England.
The old lady of Threadneedle Street doesn't even carry an
umbrella. So the two main places where you keep your
gold is in the United States, Fort Knox, I'm still
waiting for Elon to show us the gold. He was
going to live stream that. That didn't happen. Listen, Rand
Paul went there and he said it was all there,
but he didn't show a picture. That's what you get.
Oh, Rand Paul. When did he go there? Oh, about
a month ago. He's like, I've been to Fort Knox.
It's all good. Really? The gold's there. Oh, yeah. And
everybody was roasting him because like, show us a picture.
We don't believe you. Well, not all of it's there
because the gold is going home. In terms of storing
gold, stored and that the traditional places is historic. Historical
reasons why gold is. France, for example, let's use France.
We'll give France. France used to store its gold into
the United States. But last year, after an upgrading of
various gold, it moved the gold back to France itself.
In terms of the Netherlands, which we're talking about at
the moment. in the United States, but guess what? That's
also been moved, but this time it's been moved to
the United Kingdom. In other words, the major venues for
where gold has been stored in the past, the US
and the UK. Now more and more countries are deciding
it's time to take the gold home. - And this
is indicative of countries being worried about some kind of
financial crash or perhaps that the United States, as we
are indeed doing, a cyber attack is coming. No, I
don't think a cyber attack. But we're kicking people off
the system. It's like, oh, you want to take Iranian
or Chinese Iranian oil money? No, no dollars for you.
That's what that's about. That's why Bitcoin is going up.
Bitcoin is having a resurgence moment because people, you know,
that's the one thing that Scott Besson can't stop. As
long as they keep it in Bitcoin. If you try
to go to Coinbase and sell it, Scott Besant will
block you. Yeah, it looks like it's, let's see, let's
get around 80, 80 right now. 79. Yeah. Yeah. I
have, we had a clip of that, of that, uh,
well, I forget that guy's name that we had.
just now, but the guy from CNN, but he was
talking about a wedding menu. I think it was the
royal wedding. Yeah. And he goes, on the menu is
pea soup. pea soup and that's all I remember that
guy he's the pea soup guy anytime I see him
let me see let me see if I can find
that I see. Like, I had such a... colorful history.
So June, it looks like June to August, it was
down to like $10,000 or $15,000. And now it's up
to $79,000. June, it was down to $60,000. It went
down to $60,000. Yeah, $60,000. Yeah, okay. Yeah. Yeah. Quest
and I can't believe I don't have that clip anymore
Richard Quest. It was the funniest thing. Let me see.
We also had a weird clip of Colin Powell. He
has some weird title. Although he's dead now, I think.
Hey, you promised a second half of show stuff. Oh,
my God. I need the jingle. Okay. Do I have
second half lined up? do it for you. Let me
go backwards. I'm second half of... second half of show
this is my great system that I made okay you
Christmas is. No entry. Second half of Seoul. Alright. All
right, I hope I'll be. Second half of show. All
right. Have you ever heard of a Vega astrologer? Vega
astrologer? Or maybe it's Veda astrologer. And this was all
in my mind last week. And I think it's a
Veda astrologer. No. And so I'm listening to... the tinfoil
hat podcast because i've been trippley trippley yes i've been
doing you know since i've been doing the show i
haven't been listening to the show uh because i've got
all the you know between me and you talking i'm
getting all the information i need So I've been listening
to a little bit of this, and he has this
guy on, and I'm thinking, oh, this is going to
be boring. And for the first, I don't know, maybe
30, 40 minutes it is, and then all of a
sudden he starts talking about these old books. And I
had never heard – I've heard of one of the
books that was listed on here, and I'd never heard
of any of the other ones. And he just rolls
them off and talks about the different things in them.
But we're going to start with an easy one that
a lot of people probably heard of is the Screwtape
Letters. His last name is Harmon, and I'll find his
full name. I just have Jay Harmon on there. but
it starts with second half, Jay Harmon, book one, Screwtape
Letters. C.S. Lewis wrote a book, if anybody ever wants
to read it, it's a really interesting little book. It's
called The Screwtape Letters. And he makes a disclosure at
the beginning of the book. He says, I cannot verify
whether this book is fact or fiction, but read it
and see what you think. And it's about this little
demon who reports back to his uncle Screwtape, hence the
name of the book, right? So the first little chapter,
Uncle, I just had one of my human subjects join
a religion. And the uncle said, ah, don't worry about
a thing. We've taken good care of that. We've changed
all the books that are really about us. And nobody
will figure it out. So don't worry about a thing.
And then they'll notice everybody sitting in the pews in
the church that are all hypocritical. And the rest of
the week they treat each other like shit. And then
come back and act holy, right? But this book gets
into some eerie stuff about how... you know, will be
looking at something, the titillation of the physical plane, and
he'll tell the little demon how to get the human
to get his mind off that and get it over
on this. So it's all about consciousness in the mind.
And back to what you were saying earlier, these people
get immense physical powers in the realms by doing certain
things, sacrifices, et cetera, et cetera. And they seem to
be enamored with blood. Ike cracked into a lot of
this. A lot of people thought David Icke was crazy.
Now they're going, you know, this guy might not have
been wrong. I highly recommend reading the screw tape letters.
Highly recommend it. It's definitely good. I don't know why
he's making this sound so screwy. Screwy tape. Have you
read them? I have not read them. I'm going to
check out all three or four of the books this
guy mentions. There was a guy who recently committed suicide.
His name was Joe Fells. I think it was his
name. He was into collecting old Bibles, and he was
going to scan them and put them on the Internet.
Then all of a sudden, he's in a mental institution,
and he hangs himself. Of course, he said many times,
I'm never going to commit suicide. Yes, I'm not suicidal.
Yes, of course. My radar is pinged to anything old
now. I'm like, oh. Let's find old books. And, you
know, I got started in this back in the 90s,
you know, getting Who Runs Congress and None Dare Call
a Conspiracy. I found these in an old used bookstore
in the conspiracy section, which was two shelves. And I'm
reading these and I'm like, OK, this looks good. And
it's small. None Dare Call a Conspiracy is a very
small book, but talks about world government. And then you
go to Who Runs Congress? And that was written by
Ralph Nader. And it's about how Congress is basically corrupt.
regulating the price of milk which is why it became
so cheap and so those those got me kind of
started on my trail of look peering behind the curtain
so I'm always looking and when people are talking about
old things and how they it just kind of piques
my interest now this next book I'd never heard of
it I'd heard of the screw tape letters I just
never read it but I'm definitely gonna go you should
read find a copy should yeah I'm gonna get a
copy and check it out but the Shahar Haggilliam is
this other book he's talking about and I've got actually
two on this and who it was written by. I
just think this stuff is interesting and I don't know
if you've ever heard of this book or not. It
might be something for you and Pastor Jimmy to talk
about. But here's clip two. Screw tape letters for sure.
I don't know about this next one. They literally say
in the Sharia Gilgum. that when we are born, we're
knocked out. Remember that first breath? That's when the spirit,
psyche, and soul say. We all have a mark right
here. It's called the mark of silence. And real quick,
I'll tell you, the mark is right under your nose,
that little dimple right before your lip is. That's what
he's referring to. That's the mark of silence? That's what
he's saying the mark of silence is. And he says
when you take your first breath, that's actually when your
soul officially enters your body. And pretty interesting stuff. Now,
we can finish that clip. your lower present personality. The
first seven years, the child goes through amazing development. I
mean, it's just stunning. So the lower conscious mind is
not us. It's the interface to this dense world of
time and space. And everybody believes everything they see, touch,
feel, and hear. And they're right. It's real. And God
might have done us a favor by knocking us out.
Because if we could see all the disincarnate souls, spirits,
angels, and intelligences and elementals around us, we probably couldn't
walk across the room without flipping our cookies. Ah, I
like this. This is good. By the way, so my
daughter, she says, you know, people have given her all
kinds of stuff for the baby. And she has these
flashcards. And so she says, you know, these flashcards, they're
just black and white images. um like shapes and she
says no because babies can't you know they can't really
see color yet and they they just see contrast and
i'm looking at these flash cards i'm like this is
mk you're mk ultraing my my grandmother like pentagrams and
stuff what's on these cards what are you doing i
don't trust this stuff demon horns it's like triangles and
you know checkers i don't know i i don't think
you should be showing them to her I like his
line there at the end, losing your cookies. Oh, one
quick, does she have the Norwegian snot sucker? What is
that? All right. So kids get stuffy nose. Oh, it's
like a little bulb and you suck it out? Well,
no, no, no. This actually, because the bulb thing gets
gross inside of it. So what you get is this
thing and you literally use your mouth and you stick
the thing into the kid's nose and you suck it
out, the snot out, and it goes into a sponge.
A sponge catches it so you don't swallow it. Hey,
my granddaughter doesn't have snotty nose, okay? She doesn't have
that. She doesn't have that. Just wait until she starts
breathing them chemtrails. With my kids, it was shoot silver
water up the nose and suck it out. And I
did that a lot. Colloidal silver. Colloidal silver. Yeah. And
let me tell you, my kids are really, they're very
healthy. And we never had, they never got what my
wife gets a lot, these sinus infections. But we've managed
to keep them clean. Yeah. You make them eat rocks.
you Yeah, you know, whatever helps. As long as they're
not coated in glyphosate. I'm like, you eat whatever you
want. All right, clip two of this Sharia Gilgum. Previously
concretized beliefs, also habit patterns, and more importantly, karmas that
are connected to the soul root down into time and
space. This is why intentions, prayers, meditations actually do matter.
eye chakra which permeates the auric field and you don't
lose that when you lose this when we exit the
body known as death You're not dead. Your consciousness goes
right on. They actually say there's seven lokas right outside
of the earth. And I'm not making this up. It's
in the Vedas. They talk about these dimensional lokas. The
Sharia Gilgum will blow your hair back. It literally talks
about how consciousness and karmas have to grow in order
to escape from Alcatraz. The earth is a time machine.
That's all it is. It's a divine experience. experiential place
of genetic time and space and experience. And I think
it's really divine. I always say I love the human
race. It's just the damn people that irritate me. Yeah,
I'm with you. Wow. Wow. Spaceship! We're on Spaceship Earth.
Interesting descriptive language of stuff that I don't always think
about. Where we're at, what we're doing, we're always concerned
with the mundane. No, we're not. We're just glued to
our screens and hyper-focused on the lancy-clancy. And now this
final clip is about karma. You pass out karma a
lot. You've done it for coming up on 19 years.
And he starts talking about karma. He mentions it a
little bit in that first part, which kind of piqued
my interest. Here is a definition of karma. What's the
difference between getting possessed by a ghost and a demon?
Is there two different things? Oh, yeah. Yeah? Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah. I'm glad you brought that up because there's
so many different levels. See, now, if you get that
text I talked about, the Sharia Gilgum, there's another one
I love. It's called Minot Yehuda. It was written by
a rabbi in the late 1800s, early 1900s. And he
specifically addresses, with Dr. Carl Wickland and many of these,
other practitioners have discovered. And the Sharia Gogam addresses this
specifically, which means the human aura is like a sieve.
When you do drugs and alcohol, you weaken the auric
magnetic field and stuff comes in on you. Anger can
do that. Also, violence or even if you have a
genetic makeup like that. See, God created time so everything
wouldn't happen at once, in my opinion. And the earth
is a soul cult. where souls come here and experience
time and space. And karma is really interesting because, you
know, us Westerners, we get a little nervous when we
hear that word karma, right? You know, I know I
did when I first heard it. But karma is really
the thought form elementals that we created not only in
this lifetime, but are attached to our soul root. And
this is deep stuff. If reincarnation is possible, which I
absolutely know it is in my heart, I don't sell
that to anybody. But if you look at the evidence,
look at Monroe. Scientific and Edgar Cayce and so so
many others that have provided evidence that is overwhelming Yeah,
if I had my shofar right now I'd be blowing
it Rob do just to get rid of all of
this nasty stuff that you brought into the show This
none of this can be any good screw tape. Okay.
I was alright with that, but then all this stuff
nah Nah, I stay away from that. You don't want
any of that stuff entering your consciousness at all Well,
what do you what do you think about their definition
of karma? I don't like it. I don't like any
of it. I don't like any of it. Ever since
I became a believer, like, no, I'm going to stay
away from that. No tarot cards, no karma. I mean,
people ask for karma. I do it because they ask
for it. I love that people, you know, said, I
want the prayers, prayers, not karma. Do I have that
clip here? Yeah, so we have that jingle. You've got
it. prayers. Trying to sweep away those clips with the
prayer card, the prayers. Yes, exactly. I'm just sweeping it
all under the rug. There we go, ladies and gentlemen.
There it is. Rob Dew brings you the second half
of show. Creeping me out. I thought it was definitely
weird enough to bring to the second half of show.
And I'm not endorsing anything he said. I haven't read
any of those books. But I thought it was pretty
interesting. And I like some of his descriptive language. Like,
you know, what is Earth? You know, is Earth a
time machine? experiencing time because you could say it you
know a time machine you're traveling forward or backward but
we are kind of experiencing the present as we go
so i thought that was i thought that was one
of the interesting points i really think you shouldn't be
smoking weed during the show i just think you should
stop now as a dad i think you'll like because
i i listened to this and i had
immediate like wow man this is where we're at this
was a story that popped up and um you have
kids how many do you have five seven four no
only four four kids um this was this was a
really interesting story that i just wanted to discuss with
another parent mom is fighting back after she was sentenced
to six months in jail for letting her five-year-old son
walk alone in a gated community to a nearby pond
the mom carianne parkinson said her five-year-old son walk about
a half a mile in that community to collect goose
feathers because this is what little Sam loves to do.
They had just been at the pond and he said,
can I go back and get some more? So she
let him. Someone saw Sam. Wait, wait, I'll tell you
how this went down. Mom, mom, mom, let's go get
more goose feathers. Let's go. Okay, just you could go
by yourself. Go ahead. You're fine. Exactly. A nosy neighbor
and alerted neighborhood security, please. And they escorted Sam home
and they called the What? remains and she will have
Police into the situation. Parkinson told the cops she wasn't
interested in talking to them, so they called for backup
and child protective services. Parkinson's husband argued kids need to
be able to take reasonable risks in order to grow
up non-anxious. To which CPS responded, a five-year-old child can
never be unsupervised. Parkinson was
to spend seven years, seven years, on the state's child
abuse neglect registry. She is appealing. She tells Fox News
that she stands by her parenting choices. I was trying
to think. I think I was walking around unsupervised when
I was five, I think. I know by six, I
was riding my bike to my friend's house. Yeah. Probably
more than half a mile away, I was able to
do that. Yeah, we had woods. But I didn't start
riding a bike until six. We had woods in the
back of the house, and I'd be running around and
just doing stuff and be on the fence. Oh, yeah.
We had the magic stream. So now we have a
new term, which you had the magic stream? What? The
magic stream. Yeah, it had crawfish in it. Okay. It
was basically a drainage ditch, but it had crawfish. It
had woods on the sides of it, so we made
elevator branches and everything else. So now we have the
new term, neighbor narcs. The majority of people in prison
for nonviolent offenses are there because of their neighbors. Neighbor
narcs are a massive epidemic. Neighbor narcs. It is so
true. I can't stand it. This is an abject failure
of prosecutorial discretion. Her having to be on the child
abuse and neglect registry for seven years means that she
likely can't volunteer in her children's schools. since you heard
her, she's incredibly thoughtful and articulate, articulate, I'm not, and
smart and loving of her child. And when I think
about the way I was raised and all of us,
I mean, chances are the fact that we're all sitting
here means we have a measure of resilience that our
parents instilled in us and her decision to let him
go collect goose feathers, which is adorable, with his best
interests in mind, because it was fostering his competence and
his resiliency. Overall, I think five, I would not let
my five-year-old walk half a mile to the pond to
go collect goose feathers. I wouldn't do that personally. But,
you know, that's maybe her kid's a little different. And
she felt that, I think as a parent, you're allowed
to make those decisions. There was another... I saw a
video of a guy, these cops came to the house
and they wanted to talk to the kid to see
if he was okay because of some video he supposedly
saw at school. And the guy's like, I don't know
what you're talking about. His son, do you know what
I'm talking about? He's like, no, there's no video. And
so the cops didn't want to leave until he's talking
to him through a window and they're like, we need
to see your kid. So he brings the kid over
and they ask him if he's okay. He said, yeah.
And so they're walking off. And then the guys, because
he wouldn't let him in the house, they're like, well,
we'll see what happens when we get CP. involved. And
then the guy goes to the school the next day,
and the principal, the counselor, nobody knows anything about this
video. It's like, oh, but the guy made some posts
online about the police force. It's like they were inventing
something to come, which is total ridiculousness. The crazy thing
about this story is that in Virginia, and I love
this, they have free-range laws, like your kids are chickens.
So they have laws where you're, allowed to have your
kid run around, but they got around it by going
to Child Protective Services, which I learned from Alex Jones.
They're the problem, man. I got the documents. They're the
problem. Well, what's crazy about this legally and one of
the most horrifying aspects, in my opinion, is that this
is actually in direct contradiction with a Virginia law that
was passed back in 2023 under former Governor Glenn Youngkin.
It was a free-range parenting law that specifically narrowed the
definition of child neglect to protect parents who let their
children have some element of independence and freedom. And the
police in this case decided to move forward with prosecuting
this woman anyway, which is why they had to charge
her with contributing to the delinquency of a minor, because
they couldn't actually prosecute her for child neglect. Oh, man.
That's ridiculous. It's way too far. And she'll probably get
a liberal judge who's going to side with the police.
That's the sad part. And, you know, you used to
think liberals were all about freedom and stuff like that.
And it's who is Lunkin. He was like a middle-of-the-road
kind of conservative governor who got that passed. You know,
we've been taking a lot of Ubers from the hotel
to my daughter's house. It's like a 15-minute ride. It's
a little too far to walk. And so, you know,
I'm talking to the— By the way, an Uber Black
in Rotterdam is basically a Tesla with a Muslim driver.
It's amazing. It's a different color than Tesla. You know,
it's black, it's gray, it's blue. And everyone's either Mohammed
or... Abdul? No, there's no Abduls. We had Lena, a
couple different ones. But, you know, there's like... Some were
from Morocco, some were from Syria, one was from India.
You know, that's what I'm talking. And you talk about
America. And it's not just the Uber drivers, but almost
everybody who has not been to America. They're like... Oh,
but isn't America really dangerous? Don't you have all those
guns? Yes, yeah, I have all the guns. Yeah, I
mean, people get shot on the street all the time.
And I realize that this is what social media has
done. Because, you know, you see people fighting and they
get in the algo and just one after another after
another. And these people really, truly believe that we live
in some horrible, destructive society where everyone's just killing each
other. It's amazing where they're really living in the prison
here themselves. They have no idea. where these guys probably
came from or their parents came from, it probably was
pretty bad. And they're like, well, look at this. And
they give us free and they give us money and
they pay for our housing. There's a high standard social
safety net for the migrants coming into Europe. Some of
these guys I think are legit, but I think some
of them are also running the drugs. Like, how are
you making money with this? And these Teslas? Man, they
rattle. Have you ever been in a Tesla? It's all
plastic. It is. I had a friend who had a
Tesla. He had a Cybertruck, too, at one point. He
got rid of the Cybertruck. But he got a Tesla
first. And he loved it. And then he got a
Cybertruck. And then he bought a diesel truck. And then
he went back to another Tesla. He got another Tesla.
I think he just likes buying cars. The Cybertruck is
foreboding here because it has sharp edges. It might hurt
somebody. So you can't have a Cybertruck. Man, but I
haven't been in a single Tesla that doesn't rattle. Just
rattling. Like everywhere. It's like creaking, rattling. It's plastic. Well,
you're leading into my Tesla clips. The Cyber Taxi just
launched in Austin two days ago. Were you at the
event? Oh, no. I hear Wall Street did not like
it because, I guess, because it wasn't streamed live. Anyway.
No, what happened? We'll start with the first one. Tesla
cyber taxi launch FCC investigation. That's why the stock price
went down. Hold on a second. Tesla, wait, where? Tesla
cyber taxi. It starts with T. No kidding. Okay. Tesla's
driverless taxis now under a federal investigation, and it comes
just one day after hundreds of the cybercabs hit the
roads in Austin, Texas. Now, federal investigators are looking into
whether the two-seat cars comply with safety standards, given that
they lack steering wheels, mirrors, and brake pedals. Neither Tesla
nor its CEO, Elon Musk, has responded to a request
for comment. So that's why your stock price went down
because of the FCC investigation. Wait, the FCC? What do
they have to do with it? I don't know. That's
what it says. The FCC? Maybe there's some sort of
weird... It's the Federal Communications Commission. That's what I thought.
So I was like, I don't understand it. Okay. Or
maybe he said FTC. He might have said FTC. Federal
Transportation. That does seem a little weird. Okay. There's a
couple words this guy pronounced, and I'm like, I don't
understand what he's saying. Okay. And it's an ABC. anchor.
All right. Now... Just the other day, I think it
was yesterday, this guy posted. You're going to love this
one. It says, Cyber Taxi to Police. Biometrics verified. Navigating
to City of Austin Police Department for further verification and
potential detainment. What? So what do you mean you verified
my identity? And what do you mean detainment? We're in
the city of Austin. Like, what's going on? I don't
think I've been in Austin for like 15 years. Don't
tell me like you check police records. What the f-
No! What the f- Oh my god, so what exactly
is gonna happen to me when I get there? What
the f- Oh! in under an hour if everything checks
out. An hour? I have to... My flight leaves in
two hours. Like, I was supposed to go right back
to my hotel. Routes already committed. 21 minutes to the
station. Can't reroute to the hotel now. Nah, Rob, you've
been punked. No way. This is not true. This is
bull crap. All right, play the kicker clip. We'll skip
the other two. Okay. Do you remember the entire conversation
we had about you taking me to the police station
like as a prank? Do you still remember that? Okay.
Give the viewers a rundown of what happened, like what
I asked you to do, like what type of scenario
I wanted you to, you know, play out with me.
You wanted me to roleplay taking you to the police
station as a prank. You wanted a fun prank scenario
where I'd pretend to reroute the robo-taxi to the station
instead of your real destination. Keeping it all lighthearted. You
can cut it there. So I had two other clips
to see if I could get it past you. No,
no. First, the, the, the, The real giveaway was, I
need to go to the airport. No, because they don't
go outside of the city of Austin. They will not
take you to the airport. Oh, I should have cut
that part out. I almost cut that line out. You
might have fell for it. No, come on. I'm a
vibe coder, man. You can't get that by me. That's
not going to happen. I like the part where he
says, do you remember the plan we had? He's like,
of course I remember. What was the plan again? It's
like, yeah, I'll count to 100. Let's count to 100.
Are you sure? We're going to do it. Very funny.
Very, very funny. Very funny. I want to see if
I can get that one past you. Now, I do
have these clips. We've got to play these before I
go. I'll let you do the final series. All right.
Cole Johnson, MMA chimp fight. Okay, what do I need
to know about Cole Johnson? He's an MMA fighter. He's
only had one fight apparently, but okay This is where
he's going next. I got an offer for even more
money in a month that I can't even disclose So
this is a male champ that did a couple people
and these guys are like, all right, you might as
well do this We'll give you some money. We're gonna
blow this up. You know these these people I'm working
with now. They're a little bit less sketchy They're gonna
have I mean, I'll interrupt either they're sketchy. Yeah Fighting
a chimp in a foreign country. It's a piece of
dated in any way shape or form or It's like
just as is. There's no, they're not going to cut
the teeth. They're not going to cut the claws or
anything like that. And there's going to be people with
tranquilizers as well. So I want to go against this
wild animal and test myself against it. I don't want
to kill this wild animal and I don't want to
die. We're going to fight until I see, obviously, I'm
winning. All right. If it's killing me, it's going to
get tranquilized. This thing is going to eat his face
off. This is a very, very bad idea. He does
not realize how strong these things are. And what kind
of chimp? Is it like the chimp from, you I
mean, what kind of chimp is it? It's not Michael
Jackson chimp. It's going to be like a chimp chimp.
It's going to hurt him. It's going to be big
and angry. I don't think he knows how strong these
things are. Next is how he plans to fight the
chimp. Hold on a second. Are the television rights already
secured for this fight? Well, I knew that's what you'd
want in the first place. Can I still get in
on this action? Is this going to be in a
cage like a traditional MMA-style cage? Or is it like
on concrete? What is the setting? On grass. Like a
street beef. Yep, it's going to be like a street
beef. outdoors it's gonna be I think the cage is
gonna be pretty large you realize if this chimp bites
you and your neck or face you know it sure
you could tranquilize it but tranquilizers don't work immediately like
movies like they don't go boom and then they're out
like it takes like a while definitely a serious injury
couldn't a hundred percent happen if it gets my arm
it's not the end of the world I've been training
my whole life to slam people from any position right
really it's about protecting my balls in my neck specifically
I got a couple game plans here so the first
plan I'm gonna be you know trying to keep it
at distance seeing if I can keep it off me.
We'll go for a couple minutes. I'll get this thing
exhausted and then I'll go in for a slam or
something. Rob, is this another scam you're pulling on me?
Is this real? Is this for real? It seems real.
And I looked, and there are articles about this, about
this guy going after a chimp. But they're like, he's
got a 1-0 amateur record. I'm like, oh, my goodness.
The chimp? No.
No, the Cole Johnson. But apparently he slams really well.
That's his thing. He picks people up and slams them
down. And I guess that's what he's going to try
with this chimp. But you try to slam a chimp,
it's just going to roll. Chimps know how to fight.
I mean, they're physically stronger. This is really level Dvorak's
TikTok, ladies. I mean, you're really pushing my patience here.
One more. You got a clip three. It gets even
better. After this fight, I've been talking to a tribe
out in the Arctic Circle. They have told me they
have a polar bear out there. I'm not going to
fight a polar bear. You can't do a polar bear.
No. They told me, all right, there's this polar bear
that's been eating people's dogs. It's been attacking people. That's
going to be put down. You can come and you
can fight this thing with a sword and we will
give you money. Like, I've been hunting my whole life,
training my whole life. I know how a wild animal
acts. I stand a pretty good chance against a polar
bear too with a big sword. I think I have
that one as well. Are you trained in sword fighting?
I am not. That would be a camp I would
have to really lock in for, for sure. Okay. All
right. I'm calling Dane and Brunetti. We're going to get
the rights. have this is a pay-per-view extravaganza one of
the shortest fights in MMA history no doubt this guy's
gonna die this is not I don't think he's gonna
make it to the polar I don't think if he
actually fights a champ But a lot of people are
going to watch it. I guarantee you people will watch
that and they will be into it. I know. Rob,
dude, thank you so much for being here once again.
I appreciate it. I hope you can come back in
the near future when you have some time. Just let
me know. My schedule is very busy, but it's a
lot of fun, and I've really enjoyed it. And a
lot of people have been sending me stuff, which is
why some of this stuff is up here. Like, hey,
man, you're now the crackpot. Send this. Curry's the buzzkill.
Hey, brother, I really appreciate it. See if you can
pull this over on Curry. Yeah, we'll do this cyber
tactic. Taxi thing, sure, sure. You did good. You got
it in one clip. I thought I could maybe get
two, but that was it. Have a great Labor Day
weekend. What's left of it. And thank you again, Rob.
Really appreciate you. I'm heading to a pool party and
then back home to feed the kids. Beautiful. There he

realized no wonder the trolls didn't show up. I never
sent out the actual tweet. Ah, it's what happens when
it's, I don't know, what is it now? It's almost
10 past 10 Sunday evening here in the Netherlands. This
is your value for value best podcast in the universe.
You know how it works. At least you should know
how it works. If you get any value out of
the show, send it back in any of the three
ways. Time, talent, treasure. You can do all three, of
course. You can do all kinds of things for us.
Boots on the ground are very helpful. That's how I
actually got into the whole signal trace system from boots
on the ground in front of our producers. You can
tell somebody about the podcast, get them to listen, hit
them in the mouth. We love that. And also you
could do things like create art for us. And you
guys have really been doing some good work. The artwork
for episode 1900, Trust the Plan, is what we titled
it, was Francisco Scaramanga. Brought us a beautiful penetration tester
kit, 33 ways to throw it. Now here's the funny
thing. So I have the robot do the chapters for
every single show. And, you know, it goes into the
Noah Jenner art generator. It pulls different images and it
puts them in the chapters and it looks at the
titles. And I got a note from one of our
producers. He said, you know, it doesn't really bother me,
but my 10-year-old son was looking at my phone and
said, Dad, what kind of podcast are you listening to?
And it pulled a couple of those pieces of art
that Comic Strip Blogger pulled up there. I'm not even
going to describe it to you, but it was wrong.
So, like, hold on a second. That showed up in
the chapters? And I told the robot, I said, you
know, you've got to make sure that you're not putting,
you know, lewd stuff in his chapter art. And it
literally went in. Looked at the art, quote-unquote, looked at
the art and said, oh, yeah, no, I'm going to
have to, quote-unquote, look at the art from now on.
But the penetration tester, that's just a lawn dart toy.
So, you know, are we near, anywhere near? Artificial general
intelligence? I don't think so. Thank you, Francisco Scaramanga, for
bringing us the artwork for episode 1900. I want to
thank people who supported us with some treasure. Not a
lot, actually, but of course it is the... It is
the show after 1900 and it is Labor Day weekend.

I guess. Hope you have a great time in my
hometown. Oh, is he in Rotterdam? Enjoy the moments with
little Cleo, Christina, and Kevin. We have been enjoying it
indeed. Heard your comments two shows ago on the role
of Rotterdam and the drug trafficking in Europe. I'm still
awestruck looking at the downfall we have seen over here
in the last three decades. Only a day or two
ago, there was a Mexican-style shootout near the Belgian border
where 35 thugs were invading another drug lord's house, killing
one. Europe is crumbling and it's going downhill fast, he
says. One thing I wanted to give some nuance in
is you commenting on the Moluccans. Oh yes, they were
causing issues in the 70s, hijacking trains and schools. Note,
however, that the Moluccans were... This is true. You know
what? Thank you for the context. Note that the Moluccans
were brought to the Netherlands in 1949 as they were
the backbone of the Netherlands Indies Army at the time.
And after the transfer of power by the Netherlands to
