Hey Pope. Don't worry about it. Adam curry John C. Devorah. It's
Thursday, August 30 2018. This is your award winning get my
nation media assassination episode 1064.
This is no agenda. Getting to
the bottom of all this monkey business and broadcasting live
from the capital the drawing stars taken here in downtown
Austin. Hey, how's the morning, everybody? I'm Adam curry in
from
Northern Silicon Valley. We're X sealed for your protection. I'm
John C. Dvorak.
And all along I thought it was for freshness. G just for
protection. Who knew? You know?
Ah, yes. In the morning to you, sir. In the morning, do you?
Yes. You don't have to yell at me.
Like you're mad in the morning. All ships at sea.
Yeah. And the boots on the ground? Well, it was a show day
on Sunday. And of course, we had a shooting. I think if it's if
three people die, then it's considered a mass shooting, but
you wouldn't know it from the mainstream
media. They kind of came and went. Which unit you're
referring
to? Oh,
the at the Madden game. Oh, yeah.
Competition. Yeah. Yeah.
So the kid was, I guess he might have been on some kind of
psychotropic drugs. He was under a psychiatric care. But worse.
It's all the all the elements that you want. But worst of all,
he was a Trump hater. So we just don't we're not hearing much
about this anymore. Now, are we? Well, it's
apparently the elections are underway where it kind of got
the last couple of primaries out of the way. We're heading to the
midterms. Finals, yes, in November. And we have to focus
on other things.
Yes, we can't be focusing on what's killing our young people.
That would be ludicrous. And since you
can you make sense? And sense from mentioning you might as
well play my clip on the what's the name of this clip is the Big
Pharma and I just picked this off of the off the internet,
some guys on one of the second podcast, the elaborate podcast,
where they have these different kinds of what you editorializing
and this is the
I saw this media and drug companies. Yeah,
is just the beginning of it. With the
exception of CBS, every major media outlet in the United
States shares at least one board member with at least one
pharmaceutical company. Let me put that in perspective. These
board members wake up that GoTo Meeting at Merck or Pfizer, then
they have their driver take him over to meeting with NBC to
decide what kind of programming that network is going to air.
And for those board members who aren't pulling double duty with
a media conglomerate and a big drug company, they still
understand that they can't be mean to Big Pharma because Big
Pharma pays their bills, drug companies spend about $5 billion
a year on advertising with these media outlets.
I think we do a better job than what wherever you pick that up.
He goes on and on. But the point is about this last shooting,
you'll note Yeah, this is one of the few times where that it was
actually brought into the conversation that
well, he had been hospitalized. There's nothing about drugs I
don't see that discussed.
I saw the thing. He was on Xanax and Oh, okay. Now as soon as
that happens, they pulled the pull the story. It's all
now isn't it interesting that CBS gets a pass in that in that
little
if you listen carefully, they only get a pass because they
don't have a board. Yeah. Right company. So Well, I was gonna
pass for advertising. I was
gonna go completely the opposite way as you were talking about
elections. Oh, boy. I'm really excited. Do you know who's
running for 2020? Maybe possibly could be.
Well, there's been a lot of good Oprah.
No, we know Oprah is not going to do it. No, no, no. Our
favorite petite man with the big head.
Let's talk about where you've been standing a lot,
Congressman, and that is in Iowa 10 times over the last year and
a half is what has been reported and I like Iowa. My dad's from
Iowa. I like it was born. Yeah, you were born there. There you
go. People running for president also, like Iowa.
Do you know who it is yet?
Well, it's not Corker is not petite petite male. Yeah,
there's a bunch of them though. I mean, I immediately as soon as
you say that, I think of that guy over here at Cal the the
professor
now. This is Swalwell Oh, Swalwell. Yeah.
A lot of time now.
Idiot. He's only a congressman from California. He's never done
anything. He's, he's deluded. He's
floating balloons.
Are you gonna run for president? Well,
I'm going to do all I can first to win my way back to Congress,
I'm helping a lot of colleagues, particularly how there's three,
three seats in Iowa, where we have two of our candidates under
the age of 40. And then after the midterms, Papi, I'm going to
consider it. But right now, you know, I'm helping candidates who
are stepping up to protect our health care, protect paychecks
and protect the democracy. And I'm just inspired by so many new
candidates who are bursts of New Energy, I
feel inspired and leadership.
There was the news in there.
Were all these leaders with leadership that's inspiring him
so much. The only one I know of is AOC. She's She's She's rather
inspiring considering
it. So not a denial. You're thinking about running for
president? Why do you think that you would be a your party's best
shot at the Oval Office and be the single best person to leave
this country?
Well, Poppy, this President has just taken a wrecking ball to so
many freedoms that help give me the first generation of person
in my family to go to college and opportunity. My Okay.
Let's just review that statement. This President is
this President's taken a wrecking ball to so many
opportunities that know so many freedoms, freedom, freedom,
freedoms that gave my family opportunities? I'm not sure what
freedoms he's taken away country.
Well, Poppy, this President has just taken a wrecking ball to so
many freedoms that help give me that first generation person in
my family to go to college and opportunity. My I was raised to
believe that if you work hard, it means something. And I think
that having an experience and energy to give Americans a
health care guarantee, invest in modern schools to make sure that
we green our grid and our infrastructure, that that is the
path forward. And that's the new
one green, the grid, I like it. I like that green, the grid, the
future
for our country is a page for it, and I'm going to consider
it. But again, right now, the best way to cut our time in hell
and half is to win Congress. And we shouldn't look beyond that.
He's got his talking points. So I like that,
you know, there was a guy I don't have in front of me, and I
probably should have printed it out, which is a editorial in the
USA today by a professor of Pennsylvania, who teaches some
screwball course, and it is a screwball course, when you look
at what it was, but he goes on and on about how we have to get,
we're in hell with this president. And we have to make a
deal with the devil with him. We have to offer him a pardon.
So we can we can resign? Yes, I'm like,
it's like what?
Yes, this is this. This is still ongoing. Actually, this is a
holdover from Sunday show. This is Kamala Harris. And yes,
indeed, the the impeachment is on and it's on in the context of
the appointed judge Kavanaugh, who still has to go through his
confirmation hearing. And I think the reasoning behind that
what she's about to say here is, we can't even consider
confirming Kavanaugh for the Supreme Court because he would
then be judging or responsible for the ultimate decision in
some kind of impeachment hearing,
I really need to speak to and want to speak to what's happened
in the last day. I believe that the future of our Republic is
very much in the balance. I believe the future of our
democracy is very much in the balance. Our democracy aren't as
a tape glitch, or Republic. It's like a tabletop it stands on
four legs, and those legs are three independent coequal
branches of government and a free and independent press.
Knew I didn't realize that is that is that the way you're
supposed to see it?
Not that I know of but
it's okay. It's new verser
three independent coequal branches of government and a
free and independent press. Just as it relates to the Kavanaugh
nomination and the hearings that are scheduled to happen in just
two weeks, I would suggest that an unindicted co conspirator to
a crime should not be in the business of having the ability
to appoint someone to a lifetime position on the highest court in
our land, a court which invariably would hear the
matters that are the subject of this very discussion. So that's
what's happening right now. And I think it's imperative that
everyone pay attention to this moment and understand and see it
for what it is, which is it is it is going to be a question
about the strength of our democracy and our republic. This
is a serious matter,
you know, I'm Yes, camera. I'm convinced that if, if Robert
Muller, I'm sorry, Bob Muller. What did the memo go out that
every every douche can call him Bob? Hey, Bob. Hey, Bob Muller,
when even if Bob Muller were to say, Well, that's it, no
collusion, nothing to see here. I don't think they would give
up.
Of course not. Come on. You was just part of the strategy. I was
outlined in a newsletter two newsletters ago.
Bob Muller has gone crazy. He must be on drugs can't be right.
Sold out. CO opted Yes.
Sold out. Yes, that will be it.
Ah, yeah. He's he's in it for himself. Yeah.
We had the flag controversy as well. On Sunday. You notice
that? Never was there any admission that the President
himself told the anyone to lower the flag? Do we actually know
what happened? That for McCain?
All we know is that Trump's a jerk. Hello, all we know.
I do have some interesting McCain flubs.
What's your job?
Let's listen to those that'd be nice little thing.
Well, it's I mean, it's I don't want to be danced on the guy's
grave. And I'm not really
did that die when he played the Pejic. I was not
dancing on his grave. You know, someone gave me a lot of crap
for that is bad karma. Bad karma. Bad karma? Yeah, I'm
playing a different opinion at
karma to begin sending him off and so many accolades He doesn't
deserve. How about that for bad karma. What
I'd like to know is how many military people will be speaking
at his funeral. They haven't seen any lined up yet.
Like, kept it they kept Sarah Palin from coming. I thought
that yes,
yes. So she's uninvited the President's uninvited. Yeah. I
mean, when you when you're going down, and you're at the end,
really? I don't know, man. I think it'd be like, Hey, have
Leo Laporte come to the funeral? What
the hell?
Exactly. Here's Dianne Feinstein talking about Senator McCain.
He could have very sobering outbursts, but when the chips
were down, Donald McCain was there. And he was there with
heart. I love
Donald McCain. Okay. Sounds like I thought that was right.
No. Wow.
That's pretty bad. No one correct. So she just keeps on
going to
play that again. It's so good. Next one is even better.
He could have very sobering outbursts. But when the chips
were down, Donald McCain was there and he was there with
heart and muscle.
She's got to be thinking Donald Trump about some No, I
think she might have been thinking about Donald McGann
because he was also in the news with Trump's I guess the White
House lawyer resigned or his resigning or his leaving or I
don't know who knows what Diane's thinking but more
importantly, what is this lady thinking?
We begin today's show looking back at the life and legacy of
John McCain. Okay, now
we know who it is. Yeah. But man, Amy, Amy,
this flub is pretty. She corrects it though self
correcting flow.
We begin today's show looking back at the life and legacy of
John McCain, the sixth term senator and two time
presidential candidate who died Saturday at the age of 81 of
breast cancer at his home in Arizona, of brain cancer.
Wow,
it's like breast cancer is no laughing matter. But no,
but but we think in breast cancer when he had brain cancer
is like, and it's generally a female issue. But I do get it.
Men do get it but it's very rare. Yeah. But just be thinking
that.
I think it's kind of if you listen, if you listen carefully,
you can hear the control room yelling in her ear
died Saturday at the age of 81 of breast cancer at his home in
Arizona. of brain cancer.
Poor Judy, she must she must feel bad about that one.
Amy, Amy. Yeah.
Yeah, I flip flop now, man. That's how it works. Love
flubbed on the flub. That's right.
Show me right. All right at you, bro.
Just you know, we were talking about Southwest there's
something being up with Southwest was there because
their flights are have been messed up and you noticed it and
I got a note from Jeffrey to HC, they're in New Mexico and his
fiance's daughter Rebecca came to visit No, he's his fiancee is
Rebecca her daughter came to visit and her flight on
Southwest was canceled and here's what she found out.
Southwest is systematic pulling planes for complete check over
and maintenance this is because of the the engine that flew
apart. Oh yeah. So they have to I guess they're pretty tight
with the with their planes, but they gotta check them all. So
that's what's happening but they're, this makes sense making
products problematic for the it's gonna go on for about a
year then. and it could go on for a while. Yeah,
I think so.
Well, you heard it here first. Yes. It does make sense.
We had a big, big event, the President did a deal with
Mexico. And it's not quite signed yet. But he did an
interesting thing where he called the the incoming Mexican
President Enrique, they call them on the speakerphone.
They're in the Oval Office with you know, this is not going to
mean much to anybody else. But I look at Trump and sometimes I
see Ron Bloom, do
you know what I mean?
There's a little that is definitely some of that in
there. And it's and it's this, it's this kind of thing that
really reminds me I mean, I was like, well, let's just hey,
we'll just do this. We'll just get them on the speakerphone.
And I don't know if you saw but it took Wow, at least two
minutes to get everything hooked up on the speakerphone. This was
something we had to make fun of. You can't even handle that
speakerphone.
Did you see this? No.
Okay, so I have the guardian. They of course needed to have
this front and center. Forget about what what this potential
trade deal may be. Wow, what an idiot. He can't even you can't
even operate the phone. So they, they put up the video and they
put music under it and they edit it to show that he's a buffoon.
To begin with Dre
big day for our country. A lot of people this
is the guardian. This is their editorializing, I believe
the President is on the phone. Enrique you can hook him up to
tell me what shutter speed? Oh, yeah. People waiting. People
waiting.
I know he's hating this moment to hello to somebody. Oh, yeah.
Put that on this phone. Yeah,
please. That would be that would be handy. Good morning. Just
keeps on going. And then Oh, my goodness. He said. He said he
hopes Canada joins Oh, another slap in Trump's face. Meanwhile,
our trade with Mexico in the United States is what, five $600
billion a year. It's not insignificant. Yeah, it's a lot.
And the New York Times be like, Oh, he lied again. He lied. He
said this will be the biggest deal. Now No, no, no, no. If TPP
had gone through, that would have been a bigger deal.
That's all they had to say about it.
I mean, I have to say, I haven't seen any analysis of what have.
Yeah, but
some information. Yeah, like what's going on with it is
slapping around.
Actually, CBC did more than I could find on US media that can
then Avians who will obviously be affected if this is the
replacement for a North American Free Trade Agreement. And what
do we do with Canada? It's much smaller, isn't it? Isn't it?
50 60 billion
candidate provides about half of our oil. They're much bigger.
Bigger than Mexico? Oh, yeah. Really? Well, I
can go look it up. I don't there's just off the top my head
been because of their dependence on them for oil, which nobody
likes to talk about. Okay,
what I've got is export to 82 billion import 290 9 billion.
Now let me see.
Mexico. Mexico, come on Mexico. Doesn't
even. That's interesting. I can't find it as fast as I did
the other one. Well, it seems like Mexico may be bigger. Maybe
I'm wrong. Maybe I don't know.
I don't know. Maybe I'm wrong. Could be. No. Mexico being
bigger would be your being right.
Yes. Who knows? Anyway, we don't know
anything really flubbing? A lot because of that flub stuff. This
was just, if you end up pointing out that karma and then the
flubs, I think this shows there's going to be go this is
going to be the flub show. Okay. We'll see how it rolls in and
you'll know why.
I really I really don't know what this is. Anyway, yeah.
Here's,
I'll continue to reach here's
what the troll room should be on this already. Here's, here's
what the Canadian news says
moments after he made that statement Donald Trump brought
the Mexican president onto the phone, Enrique Pena Nieto says
the goal is to bring Canada into the deal as soon as possible.
How that will work remains up in the air. cvcs Evan Dyer joins us
from Ottawa and Mexico. As President mentioned in Canada,
as many times as possible, it seemed there, Ivan?
Yes, that's right. You know, this appears to have been an
effort by the Mexicans to make it clear that they're not
throwing Canada under the bus. You know, the Mexicans, of
course went into this bilateral round of negotiations on the
understanding that they were going to sort out some
outstanding issues between themselves and the United States
issues that didn't really involve Canada, it wasn't
supposed to lead to a new bilateral NAFTA that would
exclude candidate wasn't supposed to lead to the
abrogation of NAFTA and its replacement with a new bilateral
trade deal, called the United States Mexico trade agreement
for that is clearly the way that President Trump is spending it.
With President Trump giving the impression that he doesn't
really care very much whether candidate is invited to join,
it's always open, but that Canada would have to clearly in
his mind accept some pretty significant concessions to be
allowed in with him pointing out that it would be the easiest
thing we could do, as he put it to slap car tariffs on Canada.
So, you know, rather an unexpected outcome. If you look
back at his campaign and all of his rhetoric about NAFTA, giving
the impression that Mexico was the biggest problem that Mexico
was the country that was primarily ripping off, as he
likes to say, the United States. And this, of course, is how this
this whole conversation about NAFTA began back during the
campaign. But here we are two years later, and things have
swung around to the point where he's happily announcing a deal.
A fantastic deal with his friends the outgoing and
incoming Mexican president from we can't say enough good things.
And yet Canada is frozen out. And it appears that the clock is
now ticking. Here's essentially pulled the plug after the 90
days begins to take away the consultations on the new US
Mexico trade agreement will begin as soon as something is
signed, it will go before the Congress with an effort to get
it out before December 1, which is when the New Mexican
president is inaugurated. So from the point of view of
Canada, this is clearly a very extreme pressure tactic. This is
I would
not be that rude about your clips. Douche
I'm more rooted that guy. That guy Holy mackerel, who is he?
He's banned. He's
been boring is what he is. He's banned, he's been banned. I like
what the President is doing, because I like the sales, the
sales, talking points, you know, the sales job in which I think
he's done pretty successfully by trying to really abstract trade
balances and surpluses and deficits to the people and try
to explain how we're being ripped off. And I think that
works. I think a lot of people go yeah,
getting ripped off. I'm trying to still trying to get these
numbers. But I found this when you know, you want to use Google
sometimes you get these little people also ask they get this.
So here's when I we had a question for you real quick,
right? As part of this, what is Mexico's largest export?
Drugs? No, no,
pinatas?
No. No.
Turns out to be crude oil, which I think is pretty much what. So
they bring a lot of crude oil and a lot damn sure that your
oil exports totaling 49 billion. So I think the Canadians have
similar so we get most of our oil from Canada and Mexico.
Well, I mean, well, we bitched about the Middle East,
constantly,
I tell you what's going to happen. I know exactly how this
is gonna go. We're gonna get some kind of deal. And there
will be a renegotiated renegotiation of NAFTA. But I
think it's important he does Mexico first, so that he can
say, look, so we now have an extra 40 billion that I went out
and got for everybody. Half of that is how Mexico's paying for
the wall. I guarantee you. He could do that. That's what he's
gonna do.
Wouldn't surprise me if he did. Yeah. But I said another real
reason that you went to Mexico first, because both countries
are oil exporters to the United States. Yeah, you
can play them out against each other. Yeah. Which is probably
what he's doing in the first place. That would be my guess. I
will say, you know, we had a just about some of the things
that Trump has done as instigated the tax cuts. And we
had a conversation when this took place months ago, about
what would it do to charitable giving, that there was worry in
the nonprofit sector, that you know, people wouldn't be giving
as much money anymore. Certainly if there's caps on what you can
deduct from income taxes, etc.
And I have a report. Okay.
And I forgot to mention this. On the last show, getting back from
Chicago, you know, Tina was there with the Ronald McDonald
House, annual conference, everybody from the whole world
all the houses, right, Major, a charity, right.
They received a donation from ABS The ABB vi E, which is I
think they're in construction. I had no idea they usually
construction, usually construction donates to them.
And then they said, because of the tax breaks, we're giving
$100 million to the Ronald McDonald House.
Well, the corporate guys, yeah, because they're gonna get a huge
benefit and their taxes are different. The problem with the
or the argument was that the public which has got its
individual tax returns that are capped
at Vyas pharmaceuticals, by the way, I'm sorry, their pharma
do public is kept when the corporations aren't. And if you
start to really think about it, it's usually those monster
donations that really could make a huge difference. It might make
a difference to the smaller little law social, but
I can I can, I can tell you. Yeah, exactly. I can tell you
that for for any large nonprofit, it's really the
corporations that that do the brunt of the work, I think.
Yeah, yeah. It's a different Yeah. It's different model
that anyway, that was nice. Yeah, I guess. Yeah. It was,
there was I didn't see
any news articles on that. I'm so tired. I'm so tired of the
news. It does. You turn on local news. It's all it's all the
same. It's all the same.
Yeah, you really have to dig to get stories. And as you can tell
by my clips today, cuz I get some more shallow stories.
Although entertaining. Yes. Well, that is part of what we do
some of the most shallow stories. I mean, we did have the
only thing that kind of came out. Let's get back to the
upcoming primaries is the monkey story. Yeah, I have a
heavy original clip, if that'll actually you have.
I have a day where I have the original clip incorporated and
kind of edited. Okay, I have a decent background. And
the only reason I say that is because I felt after I'd read
all the headlines like Oh, my goodness, that when I really
heard his whole clip in context, it's such bullshit. Oh, it's
total bull crap. But But yeah, play the whole clip, and then
I'll play it. You'll you'll hear it again with this clip. Okay,
so
this is Ron DeSantis. And he's talking about is it Gillum? Who
is now who is the democratic? Rep. He'll he'll be running for
governor. Right? Yeah, he
was promoted by Bernie Sanders. And he's associated of in at
least in kind of an associate of AOC.
Oh, yeah. He's very socialist message. Yeah. And in this
context, it is important to understand that he's black.
Well, look, I mean, this is Florida elections are always
competitive. And, you know, this is a guy who, although he's much
too too liberal for Florida, I think he's got huge problems
with how he's governed Tallahassee. You know, he is an
articulate spokesman for those far left views. And he's a
charismatic candidate. And, you know, I watched those Democrat
debates, and none of that was was my cup of tea. But I mean,
he performed better than the other people there. So so we've
got to work hard to make sure that we continue Florida going
in a good direction. Let's build off the success we've had on
Governor Scott. The last thing we need to do is to monkey this
up by trying to embrace a socialist agenda with huge tax
increases and bankrupting the state that is not going to work.
That's not going to be good for Florida.
So, of course, immediately the headlines came out, saying, Oh,
you said articulate,
and he said monkeying up and you've
got to be a racist prick. If you receive those words and
immediately translated into racism. What how is your brain
functioning?
I mean, this is the this is the dimension B brain.
I mean, what he clearly would have wanted to say is f it up
because that's what the term is. Mess it up. EFF it up, and
somehow monkey came out. Oh, he must be racist.
Oh, my goodness. I mean, people really believe
this. And the weird thing is they've also transposed it to
monkey business. They did that on PBS. I've heard that done a
number of times they say monkey business. No dog whistle dog
whistle monkey
business is a dog whistle
Yeah, mill you say monkey businesses a dog whistle to
for racist, racist. Racist is racist.
Yeah. All right. Let's listen to the way
they handle this on PBS when they do the rundown. I thought
because the way they told the story to begin with I thought
they were CBS
picked this up as a story.
This ajiz out
you're reflecting my thoughts at the moment, which were, I was
thinking, well, these these idiots won't go on in that
direction, because that's really kind of a CNN MSNBC. Take on
things but no, no, and they not only went there but they
worsened it and they added a third element.
So Lisa, no sooner though We see these results. And there's
already some controversy in this in this contest. That's right.
That's for the Senate for Congressman
DeSantis. This was a huge win a much coveted prize for him this
primary win in Florida. This morning. He goes on Fox News,
talking about now the race against Mr. Gillam. And he says
something that's gotten a lot of attention. Let's play it.
He is an articulate spokesman for those far left views and
he's a charismatic candidate. The last thing we need to do is
to monkey this up by trying to embrace a socialist agenda with
huge tax increases and bankrupting the state.
Not minutes later, But seconds later, of course, many people on
Twitter pointed out that those are words monkeying around that
are offensive to many African Americans and have long been
used as race baiting terms. And also the term articulate to
describe a minority is something that is seen as not being as
post racial.
The last time we heard someone was accused of that, you know,
that was Chuck Schumer,
about Obama. Yeah, Chase.
But she said she changed the word monkey monkey it up to
monkeying around. Yes. I never said monkeying around Nope.
Americans and have long been used as race baiting terms. And
also the term articulate to describe a minority is something
that is seen as not being as post racial. So we talked to the
DeSantis campaign, they sent us a statement, what
did she say not seen as something not being as post
racial?
Not being seen as post racial, I guess? What's post racial? Well,
this is another one of these things that we you and I and
much of our audience don't seem to understand. Which is because
of Obama. And because of the way what was taught in college
today, everything that you do publicly should be post racial.
And post racial doesn't mean there's no racism to no races,
it means that you should be is this my interpretation? So
everything you do should be extremely hypersensitive to
anything. Possibly, it to any element should be incredibly
subtle to raise racially,
you have to be squeaky clean, squeaky clean, squeaky clean,
and be really
cautious. So you can't say monkey it up or as she takes it,
monkeying around. Yeah. Which he didn't say, which will make the
note of that. And then the thing the other thing, which which she
pointed out and you pointed out already, which is this saying
that guys articulate. Yeah. If I to say that you're articulate,
or if you say I am articulate, that's fine. Yeah. But if you
say a black guy's articulate, that's racism, gotten out. This,
to me is like a very, I don't understand how the black
community at large, doesn't see this as incredibly insulting. A
black person cannot be articulate.
That's what I'm saying. These the people who come up with this
are racist. They're the ones thinking that that's crazy.
Well, did you does that clip plate Oh,
no, no, no, I'm sorry. I'm not even halfway through it. I'm
already trippin
as not being post racial. So we talked to the DeSantis.
Campaign, they sent us a statement saying Ron DeSantis
was obviously thinking about Floridians not making the wrong
decision on policies and the policies that Gillum espouses.
But, Judy, I think this is resonating today. And for
Republicans, to have race be an issue right out of the gate is
not just a problem overall, in terms of Republicans messaging,
but in Florida. President Trump won in Florida, of course, we
know in 2016. But we also know that that was the year that we
saw large sharp decreases in minority turnout in Florida.
President Obama won in Florida twice. So if you see an African
American at the top of the ballot, especially when there's
concern about minority issues is something Democrats think could
drive out their voters.
And Meantime, on the on the other side, Kyle, the President
did has endorsed DeSantis he did it some time ago. Today. He's
weighing in already criticizing Gillum with a tweet and I'm
quoting, he said not only did Congressman Ron DeSantis easily
win in the Republican primary, but his opponent in November is
his biggest dream of failed socialist Mayor named Andrew
Gilliam, who's allowed crime and many other problems to flourish
in his city. This is not what Florida wants or needs.
So now,
now, this is of course, Trump being a racist, racist and make
desert but sensitive support this guy who's obviously a
racist because he used the word race up monkey it up a phrase
and he also said that he also complimented the guys being
articulate, which is an insult. Yeah. So we have to get all
these things straight. Now, and now this so there's a third guy
sitting there who's like to just kind of sit down analyst, and
he's listening to this whole thing. And he, I think, and he's
Bob is classic modern PBS NewsHour, you know, lefty, and
he's sitting there and I know what he's doing. He's thinking,
Well, geez, I gotta, they're gonna throw it to me in a
minute, I gotta come up with something to kind
of like, shake it up a bit, I gotta earn my spurs. I'm gonna
have and he takes amateurs always thinking, he's thinking,
I'm gonna top this, or at least, at least put some icing on this
cake or some lipstick on the pig.
I think that you may, you may see, Trump's sort of echoing
kind of sort of a racially charged statement talking about
crime in relation to an African American candidate. I will say
there is sort of an X factor in this race, and that is that
there is an FBI investigation of Tallahassee city government,
we're Gillum as the mayor, it's not clear as to whether Gillum
would be involved in that. But that is sort of a cloud hanging
over his campaign. And I think a reason why some Democrats were
sort of hesitant to support him in this campaign. But to be
fair, we should say he says he's not.
Now
at the very beginning of that he pointed out, which is which is
icing on the cake, that by Trump calling this guy out for running
a crappy city in Tallahassee. That's crime ridden. Anytime you
use crime ridden in association with a black ops
racist,
it's racist, because
we hear that let me just hit it.
I think that you may, you may see, Trump's sort of echoing
kind of do sort of a racially charged statement talking about
crime in relation to an African American candidate, I will say
there is sort of an X factor in this race. And that is, that's
unbelievable.
Cheese.
So if you're running a corrupt operation, totally corrupt, and
it's crime ridden town, and you're black, you can't be
called out for it. Wow, what a pass you get. This is fantastic.
You know, and the thing is, we're not catching all of these
potential racist comments, because one of our producers
sent me you know, and it was very thoughtful. You remember,
we were listening to Bill Maher, and he was saying, This is
crazy. Uh, you need to have an ID to go shopping. We why
shouldn't everybody on social media have an idea? You
need an ID? Remember that? Yeah. Well, if we follow the logic of
voter ID
demanding requiring someone to have ID for something as simple
as being on social media is in fact racist because black people
don't have IDs as we've been told.
Although we've seen more than a few reports, of course, the
black community whores and all the black say, What Are we
stupid? We all have ideas, of course.
But that's the kind of this again, this to me. This is all
subtle insults. Black people are too stupid to have IDs. They're
too stupid. They will How can you call one articulate you must
be mocking him because he's obviously not articulate. He's a
black person. Unbelievable. And everyone thinks this is fine,
including the black community and I
do want to point out this conversation wrong DEVAR ACK
this conversation would not take place if we had advertisements
that would not be happening. You can't even talk about
this anymore.
No, and especially in this context, in the context of sheer
insanity Yes.
Well, they were all everybody was all in on Trump being a
racist once again, this is the rotation as it's a you can look
it up Trump rotation.com Has that came swinging around? And
and this was in the context I think two things but really
Antifa the I guess Don Lemon said something maybe the
President responded to that interiors and by the way CNN is
they've taken it as the format the big head in the middle
that's now their format. The one with I thought at first was just
a Cuomo kid, but they feel worse than
that. I was white I was flipping around and one of them one of
the systems and I got CNN and Cuomo show. Yeah. On the regular
show. His head is like taking up the instead of most of these are
shoulder shots. Now he's so sure full on head just head. It's
just head it's just a giant head.
Do you notice this? That's what I said.
You flip to the channel make sure jump back and say I don't
want to see a head a giant head and there's no it just cuts out
like the neck to the top of the head big giant head,
a floating head while Don lemons head was floating when this one
down but because
it is the counterpart to the conversation about how President
Trump dealt with that particular moment in American history. It
says it right in the name Antifa anti fascism which is what they
were they're fighting Listen, there's, you know, no
organization is perfect. There was some violence. No one
condones violence, but there were different reasons for
Antifa and For these Neo Nazis to be there, one racist
fascists, the other group fighting racist fascists, there
is a fascist, there's a distinction there. Thank you
both. I appreciate it.
So it's okay. As long as you're fighting Hitler, then it's okay.
You can do whatever you want. We've already been through this.
We know that it's okay. But this sparked off lots of
conversation, because Jimena on Tifa, that's not a black group
is it
yet is Aryan ship with all these posts join
all the members of Antifa need to see a black face in him. Not
a single one. When you see him out on the street. There's lots
of
blacks were?
Well, most of the Antifa people I've seen including, oh, I'm
sorry, I'm thinking Black Lives, man. Yes, yeah.
Yeah, exactly. Well, so then there was this conversation
about so Trump was speaking of course, he's criticized and
Tifa. And I think this this Donald lemon comments sparked
some back and forth about is it a black organization or not?
Doesn't matter, because CNN animal analyst, JEFFREY TOOBIN,
Ah, he's off the, he's off the rails,
I'd say, let's be
clear also about what's going on here. The theme here is, I'm
Donald Donald Trump, and I'll protect you from the scary black
people. There we go. And Tifa is widely perceived.
That's why everybody voted. I'm afraid of the scary black
people, I'm gonna vote for Donald Trump.
Cheese.
This really isn't salt is.
I'm Donald Donald Trump, and I'll protect you from the scary
black people. And Tifa is widely perceived as an African American
organization. And this is just part of the same story of LeBron
James and Don Lemon and Maxine Waters, and the NFL players and
the UCLA basketball players. This is about black versus
white. This is about Donald Trump's appeal to racism. And it
just happens all the time. And we never say it, or we don't say
it enough for what it is. But that's what's going on. What do
you think, Ron?
Well, look, I don't just lie back. More broadly, I mean, I
think, you know, Trump basically, has portrayed himself
from the beginning as kind of the last line of defense for his
supporters against all the forces that he suggests are
trying to take America away from them. And sometimes it is
coastal elites like his attack on Google this morning. And
sometimes often, it is minority leaders with like the the all
the attacks that Jeffrey mentioned. The key though is and
what he said to the evangelical leaders really fits into this, I
think, is that he is presenting himself in effect as a wartime
president for red America, only the war is largely against blue
America. I mean, we've had presidents who have been accused
of sliding voters outside of their base before Trump, I think
really is the first one who actively kind of tries to
demonize the voters and the and the parts of the country outside
of his base as a way of consolidating and mobilizing his
own supporters that division is essential, it is integral to his
entire strategy. And of course, the price on that is it puts
enormous pressure on the less partisan piece of the Republican
coalition, mostly white collar suburbanites. And that is where
they face the greatest risk this fall among the very voters who
were talking about before in the last segment, who kind of look
at what's happening and say, this is just too much chaos for
me. I want some more checks and balances. Jeffrey,
I don't know Ron, I'm thinking brown people. Yeah, that's what
it's about. And you know, yours is a very sophisticated and
well, I'm insulted No, well, how about those ugly yellow people
Toobin? How about the stupid red people? You only black and
brown? Come on the President's more racist than that? No, Ron,
I'm thinking it's just black people and brown people that I
think that's what it's about. And you know, yours is a very
sophisticated analysis, but I think it's just as ugly as it
can be. And let's not forget, Donald Trump is became a
politician by making up a racist lie about the first African
American president.
It's a central part of the Jeffrey but it's not all of it.
Because do you remember the media? Just say, Jeffrey, you
remember a time when a President warned to violence on the
streets of his party loses? Beats me
I can't remember.
Just off it's that's that's, that's bad.
That's really bad.
Okay, President just hates black and brown people.
Yeah, it's just simple.
Very obvious. Why would you think any different JEFFREY
TOOBIN seems to be completely convinced. And with him, I'm
sure millions sad Well,
I don't know how many Well, except for the people that
promote these clips. You don't know how to do that. It's just
like, hey,
the people who aren't watching Home and Garden TV watch CNN, we
all know this. Yeah,
I think yeah Home and Garden TV is a humiliation to these
networks. Little did people if you don't know this that people
out there people are home and garden TV is a huge money making
Bonanza very popular classic cable TV. It's just a take cable
network and it totally annihilate CNN ratings and how's
everybody else? Yeah.
Yeah
well you heard other watch that well, who wants to watch these
guys? Every time I turn on CNN, it's just there they have no
balance whatsoever. No, it's just how much more can I hate?
Not not not gonna say just Trump. Is that is that that
Trump is a big part of it. But know how much more can I hate
all Republicans? Yeah. And conservatives trumping Their
leader is the worst of course. But how much more can I hate on
these people?
So you just have to mark it. Yeah.
And now they gotten to the point where hate non whites I hate
whites to well, you are white bill. Yeah, I'm white but I hate
that I'm white. I wish I wasn't white.
Have you seen the the hashtag verified hate on Twitter should
look at that.
I have looked at the verified hate site and the verified hate
guy. And I people should look at that. He has done a lot of
research and he goes back years I don't know where he's getting
some of these things. He's getting
them mainly he's mainly finding tweets from people who are
verified by Twitter. Yeah,
he's fat. He's found all the verified but here's what I'm
gonna go off on this one. He's found probably hundreds of 1000s
of hate tweets but they're mostly whites suck. Why should
die killing should kill white kill whites kill Whitey white
killed Trump
there's a lot of killed Trump in there to kill Trump
kill Whitey kill this kill that. And the thing that gets me
because he's got this thing. It's it's it's a whole day. But
I'm surprised Twitter hasn't taken it down. Yeah, but this is
the whole point is you got to understand that they don't have
algos, they rely on people reporting and people don't
report these tweets. Of course. That's why Twitter's not finding
him.
Well, here's what gets me about it. I have seen verified check
marks on people with 35. Followers. Yeah, the name is Chi
or you know, eat dog or something like that. People I've
never heard of, I don't know what the rappers are. Or anybody
that's you're not verified. The Han curry that one of the
original V J's at MTV, very famous person,
I'm a bot.
I'm not real. And you're not verified. But when you go to the
Verify hate site, and so I start looking at the people that are
pushing these these hate tweets. Mostly hate YT tweets. Be honest
about it. There's a bunch of flakes. I've never heard it half
of these people. And they all have a verified checkmark.
Yeah, maybe I'm doing it wrong. Maybe I should tweet something
hateful about white people. Maybe I'll get better at
being white. Does anybody really think that this is a way to get
all you have to remember that? Over 70% of the population in
the United States considers themselves white. Many of them
are Jewish. Many of them are Hispanics of Spanish descent,
but they consider themselves white. So what is the benefit to
the Democratic Party to alienate these people if they want to get
in office? Oh, man, what is the benefit to the news media to
alienate 70% of the United States by hating on YT
Well, first of all, I disagree with it. I
just want to know what's the benefit I think you're wrong. I
think that there's a large percentage of the 70% that
agrees
I'm the problem. There are people
that have actually John a lot of lie the problem I'm the problem
they're idiots. I mean, they're fools.
So I so
Jays fiance, he is taking a course in
understanding modern pop culture. Okay, they teach that
interesting.
Yes. And I know the book he shows me the book. It's all a
Marxist tome. It's a
Maher all that. And then they
tell me that he says, apparently in all these colleges, I don't
know it's true of the University of California. I think you need
to do this but all these major colleges, or minor I'm sorry,
minor colleges and little colleges all have a requirement
for a social justice class. that you must take Well, that's
how we know this is because that's what the big endowments
they all have something attached to it. Yeah.
Yeah.
So everybody's taking social justice. And it's like, it's
like, the students can't say anything in the class. And so
they kind of talk amongst themselves after class they
shake their heads are very unhappy with it with the course
with these courses are because they're not learning anything.
They are they are they're learning bad things.
Well, they're doing or they're learning. I don't know what I
would say bad, as opposed to not Lloyd learning nothing. But I
just found it to be peculiar.
Well, they're learning about the patriarchy about the white
patriarchy that has messed everything up and made America a
horrible place. That's what I read in the course books. And
colonialism, I think, is how they described colonialism.
Yeah, it's very old fat you made this is like stuff that would
have been taught and authorities. It's extremely old
fashioned, I think is easy to do. I think they're making a
mistake. Yes. There is a recent poll. In fact, I think which
kind of implies is let me read this play these two clips and I
will get back to my point. Okay. Some polling results. CBS
college women.
Oh, my lost my mouse.
Yeah, got it. And Anthony salvato is our Director of
elections and surveys. And he's here today with a batch of new
poll numbers from the CBS News battleground tracker. So
Anthony, what has changed this summer,
the Democrats have moved into a stronger position to take back
the House. We had them earlier this summer, getting just over
that magic number of 218. That's the number of seats you need to
take the house. Here we have them inching up to 222. But I
need to caution here, there's a margin of error around that,
like there is with any poll on this estimate. And that margin
of error still has a range where the Republicans could still hold
the house, there are scenarios where that happened, where that
happens. And what I want to emphasize is within that
estimate, all these districts are very close. And we're
looking at very small swings among these voters, just a few
more Republican women who are a little bit hesitant.
Ooh, sounds like we need to advertise more towards women to
say that
they're going to back the Republican candidate, a lot of
enthusiasm among Democrats for some who haven't voted before.
And so there's a lot of moving parts still here underneath that
edge towards the dems.
You mentioned women as a voting bloc, they don't all go in the
same direction. But you're starting to see a real shift in
how women are voting this election.
Yeah, one of the biggest breaks is if you look at the college
non-college difference, and we've we've started to see this
in the last presidential election. And in these
districts, it's really important. There's a double
digit edge for Democrats, among women with college degrees here.
And they also tell us that they're more likely to say their
vote is, as you heard in your panel, a vote against the
president. And that's different from men who are more inclined
to say they're voting in support of the President. And I should
emphasize these battleground districts are battlegrounds,
because they have relatively more college graduate women in
them. So by definition, that's part of what's going on.
Isn't this just the mainstream again, trying to get people to
do political advertisements by saying it's close and it's just
not
that's always an element but they can't do that it was vapid
reporting that doesn't have any substance whatsoever. Well, I
could be wrong about that. But in this case, I think they're
right they had a couple of points in here that you have to
read between the lines one was the college educated women these
and then they say people who've never voted before so we're
talking about young college educated women that are fighting
these these outrageous numbers on the side of the Democrats
because they're the ones coming out of these courses in these
colleges. These minor regular Joe
good to go they they're programmed and they have they're
washed all the colleges are doing a brainwashing kids to be
Democrats at least out of the chute. Yeah, and of you know,
the baby boomers
and more importantly discouraging any kind of
discourse about it in school.
Yes, no discussion. You're gonna go vote Democrat, get out of
school, get to get your degree. Here you go, kick you out. Boom,
you can't get a job because you're an idiot, but Go on, get
out there and vote Democrat. That's all we care about. And
that's what they're doing in these colleges. And you can name
the schools ever almost every, not the big universities.
There's a little although I would say yeah, I think
I think the big universities are doing this too. I was
calling good gotten into discussion about this and well
not because I'm you know, from a big university, I'm typing right
out of victory. versity they don't do that crap. Although
they do. And he pointed out that
you're, you went, you went to Berkeley with a riot.
Like, Berkeley is all that crap, but it's done differently. It's
done with file. Yale is the best example he points up. Because
they're the ones who kick these people out for using the word
Master. Yeah, you can't have a master class anymore. Because
that's that's not a post racial way to look at things.
Oh, good use. And you end
up with a bunch and that's what's all that's going on. It's
it's a Democrat mill, they've created this system with a lot
of these kids. And I'd say many of them snap out of it after a
decade. And they've started looking at the facts and they
say, what do we mean I've been lied to this whole time. And by
the way, this is like a smoker. You know, when smokers you know,
stop smoking they become,
become Yatta. douchebags. Nuts. Tell me about it. What
you end up with, you're gonna end up with is a population of
disillusion Democrats who are going to turn conservative or
republican or whatever, and they're going to be so mad.
They're never going to relinquish they're gonna not
even become free thinkers. There's going to be knee jerk
Republicans, and it's all bent because they created with these
lies that we try to uncover, defended this this horde of
Democrat students coming out of college, they're just gonna vote
Democrat because it's the only way to go.
I went to see my voodoo doctor, Dr. Ron, for my applied
Kinesiology. Yeah, and I love doing that, you know, he's like,
pushing down in my hand. Yeah, you need this, this is good.
This is not so good. And do little acupuncture, acupuncture,
and I said, How's the what's the patient load? Like these days?
You know, what, what do you get nice? Yeah, I'm seeing a lot of
stress should really see a lustrous lot of adrenal issues,
which is, you know, directly related to the amygdala? Does,
yeah, people have a lot of adrenal issues, tons of stress
more than normal. And I understand, you know, what you
get from this, you get really bad illnesses. When people are
this frustrated, your body will start to eat itself. Sometimes
we call it cancer. It's very unhealthy.
Well, there's more than a few ailments that fall into the
category, your body turning on itself. Yeah,
I'm just pulling out one we all understand. Because I think
it just as a creation, it's artificial, the media has been
feeding it and it's all to just feed the Democrat Party need for
votes because they can't get votes on the issues. They can't
get votes on the issues. They can get votes by calling people
racist, or idiots or red faced dumb screw ups, or whatever you
want to do to go ahead. I'm not going for him. It's like your
jam Cheeto head. And that, which is a hateful way of doing
things, or they're in trouble. Yeah. And I will bring this up.
This is an obscurity. But I'm not unsubscribing. To the idea,
which is what talk show host Rush Limbaugh has been promoting
it his thesis is, is that what's going to happen in his midterms
is not going to be what anybody expects, because the Republican
base is getting so annoyed with the coverage that they're going
to come
out in droves. It may be
right, generally speaking, the Republican any party now on the
off years, they just stay home because we got our guy in when
when is the last time that a party had the three branches and
kept it during the midterms? That seemed
just no time. I remember maybe one seems rare. Once during
Clinton maybe once during Reagan, but yes, it was very
rare. But in this case, his theory is is that is this is all
back farm, which is kind of my thesis,
three branches and the press I should have said what am I
thinking? They
they pushed the this, you know, this hate Trump agenda in the
election that got him elected. And now they're continuing to
push it didn't work the first time.
Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, so that's
where we were, what's the what's the second clip you have on
this?
This is the follow up. Yep. Plan
this happening historically. And no Anthony talks about this, you
expect about 30 seats to be lost for the president's party in
power. What the President's trying to do is to buy history
and basically say, Can I nationalize my local Trump
voters to support a local candidate candidate if he can do
that and get out to all those states. He wants to get to those
last 30 days that changes this from a referendum, which
normally is on the President's policies and his character to a
nationalized election saying that we fear open borders, we
have a strong economy you have to keep be patient and wait for
the long term
effect. And that's been the challenge. Let's it brings up a
really good point about who's more motivated to vote in this
election. And we've been seeing in all these special elections
for the House Democrats have been outperforming their
traditional vote percentage, they have been turning out at a
higher percentage. And my colleague looked at the last
special election in Ohio, where you have a great combination.
This is around the Columbus suburbs, and the more rural
parts of, of Ohio, in the Columbus suburbs where you're
gonna see a lot of these voters like we saw here in suburban
Virginia, they turned out at about 60% of their 2016 average.
Okay, so they were turning out at a very high rate for a spell,
we're
gonna go through this again, where it's all going to be 95%
Blue Wave certainty. It's just not gonna pan out. I mean, when
when will the stop? When
election in the very Trump rural parts of the district, remember,
Trump went in to this district and campaign to the vice
president went into this campaign, this district and
campaign, they only turned out at 40%. So there is also a
limit. And I think there was one voter in there, I can't remember
her name, who mentioned about, you know, I'm going to vote for
I'm a Republican abiding vote for a Republican, but I really
don't like Congress. Right? That's really the challenge is,
Trump's success was based on the fact that he trashed all of
Congress, including Republican members of 2017 Attacking Mitch
McConnell attacking the ineptness of the Republican
Republicans in Congress to pass an Obamacare repeal now to go
back into those voters and say, I know you liked me and you
liked that I shake it up but I need you to vote for these
establishment hacks in Congress that I keep attacking that's a
very difficult thing to do.
Who is this person? You know, and let me let me say
something just the many lefty analysts on PBS
let me just say I have you seen Katy Tur recently we were just
talking about this being very unhealthy. Have you seen Katy
Tur she said
she said
she looks like crap. I agree. She said there's something
wrong with her she's sick and I've and she wrote a book you'll
recall a book and this was the one and this was the mayor
future and then I think she got really overshadowed by the by
the stupid
douchebags book.
Remember fire and fury whatever that was discredited the minute
it came out. Yeah, you know, you know I'm talking about the
douchebag and so that overshadowed her real book and I
think she's so mad it's making her ill and I would like to
recommend that she take a leave of absence
but she was given a gig at MSNBC full time to do her own daily
show and this and and all they run through is just hate hate
hate on all these shows with analysis with analysis that all
that backs it up and it creates this you know, a lot of it
doesn't make sense but okay, let's just keep doing this. And
I think this dead show this killing her.
Yeah, well, it's MSNBC. It's the building probably.
I mean, the only person that really thrives at MSNBC and
looks healthy is Rachel. Yes, Rachel. She's very healthy look,
and she's just all in just like the devil. Nothing. Number one,
taking number one, sheet
number two was number one Cannady.
Can you believe that if you lose?
I thought Rachel No, no, no, no. Hannity is number one. Number
one I was always was traditionally Oh, Riley. Yeah.
So they would they could fend her off. I put a Riley opposite
her. But they lost him because of mismanagement. Yeah, I
think it's rollies I think it's Hannity. And then
Tucker or Rachel. I think that
Rachel is either one or two but I think last time I looked she
was number one. But she gets a big audience and she's having
the time of her life. She's very, but I don't see how
anybody who's actually trained me she's really a radio
personality is what she's always been. I don't see anyone's
really trained in journalism and objective reporting can can
sustain themselves in that environment.
I think you're right
she doesn't look right. She doesn't look sick. Now Kate,
Katie looks sick and and I'm I am worried. I'm worried about a
lot of people. Don't mind that have different thoughts. But
it's it's making, it's really going to make a lot of people
sick. And they're going to end people like well, Rachel, I
think is good that she that she's in it and she's healthy.
Because the minute she starts to go down, she'll take a lot of
people with her. This is contagious. Just just my
thought.
So that this is baseless back up, we have to remember that
this whole line of thinking was based on your visit to the
chiropractor.
Yeah, well, and And I'm just giving you what he said. He
said, I'm seeing a lot of stress issues, lot of adrenal gland
problems
now and it, did you. What I always like to point out is why
is there a lot of stresses because the traffic is too busy
because things are going well or you got a new job. I mean, what
is going on? That is creating this stress objectively, what
can you point to? Oh, well, Drug Facts president I mean, no,
no, no, that that Hitler is President any and he's pro the
Nazis, who are against the white black lives matter on Tifa
people? Yes, that's what's going on. People really believe that
he's Hitler. You can't just say this over and over again and not
have someone pick up on it. I mean, we laugh because we've
been around we're also old. Sure, like, yeah, they said this
of bush and they say I'm sure they said the next was the end
date Grace Antichrist. He was also Hitler at some point. So
we, we've heard this, we've heard this but people are not
prepared. They've just they have no idea what's happening to them
fine.
Especially with the kind of brainwashing they're getting in
school. The school systems both go to high school, I'd say Get
Started grammar school, high school and college now, but I
never thought I was gonna get as bad as it's gotten but it's
they're just pushing out people that are just dumb. Well,
we'll be talking more about this and the purge after we thank a
few people for helping keep our show on the rails. And with
that, I'd like to thank you for your courage.
Before you think yeah, we should mention it at 1020 I believe I'm
gonna check it out. We had a nice little earthquake here. Oh,
yeah. It made me wonder if we're gonna go off the air.
How nice how little was it and why don't you mention it when
a big giant I'm in big rock. So the thing he started to tell
from here? It was NAFTA. I noticed it.
Yeah. You okay. You feel okay. Can we? Do you think we can
thank people or we have to wait.
Well, I was thinking that we could probably wait a second.
Well, I kind of come down from this earthquake. Hi. And then I
can maybe,
and he's got the spreadsheet open? Yes. I'd like to thank you
for your courage to say in the morning, John. Stanford college
non-college divorce.
Morning to you Mr. Adam curry. Also in the morning shifts to
the sea and the feet in the air and the subs in the water. And
all the days and nights out there. And we
say in the morning to our troll room had no agenda stream.com
Good to have you guys there. As always an only see how many
people are are listening with us. Let's see. We can check
this. I guess I'm not allowed to check it out. 933 Well, it's a
little under a little normally of about 1000 for our
Thursday show. Like it started off rocky.
It's my karma. I also want to say in the morning to Conan
Solana. He brought us the artwork for episode 1063. We
titled that one for eternity. And this was only if you listen
to the show, would you understand this artwork, it was
great. There was a bunch of millennials sitting around
having brunch with kinetic sand. And that fit perfectly in that
particular episode. And we actually looked up kinetic sand,
which is Sam that's fun and easy to play with, which is why it's
the new kind of sets the new sand it's post resident old sand
it's post racial sand is what it is. It's really nice. As well, I
want to thank Conan and and then of course thank all of our
artists who diligently upload to no agenda art generator.com As
part of our value network, and we'd really appreciate it. One
of our producers I think he tweeted out that it was on
Mastodon that he no agenda social.com That is
professionally some form of dude named Ben job. He Matt he he
sees 10s of 1000s of podcast feeds. And he says only only
about 25 of all that he's seen change their artwork regularly.
out of 10s of 1000s. And we're one of them. 25 there's
that many? Yeah,
apparently there's some other smart people out there. Yeah.
surprises me so we
appreciate it. Thank you artists.
We have a few people thanks starting with Anonymous $567.08
He says cold read okay. All I want is John and Mimi signed
picture. Okay, gotta put you on a separate list. Incredible,
like no agenda. I donated anonymously instantly. 10k goes
10k goes easy. Love you guys about that. About that. stay
committed. No real conflict. About that. stay committed.
Nice. Alright, anonymous. Thank you, John. Make sure you send
out that picture.
I'm gonna have trouble with this one because I think I sent him a
note Yeah, I think I maybe sent him a note saying because I need
his address anonymous donation didn't help. Kevin McLean Port
St. Lucie, Florida $500. And there's I looked at my budget
and couldn't find a note or anything.
So I don't have anything either as far as I can tell.
Okay, well just give Kevin a, some karma.
We can always, always do a little bit of karma. You've got
karma
Aaron Christiansen in Frankfurt on Main in Deutschland, 3d 775.
Which lender in the morning Jansen heard about no agenda but
a year and a half ago and to decide it's time to donate. I
know you have a plan for knighthood whereby Aussies can
use an Austrian Deutschland where ASO is conjoined the round
table for $1,000. ruse. Yeah, if you're in Australia. Not if
you're in Germany, making actually we should ask the Euro
1000 euros. In one episode you mentioned is also worse for
euros. Yeah, 1000 euros. I've started to start on the path.
Okay, well, this is better. This is good news on the path to Euro
knighthood, which is a bonus knighthood, although might not
be for long. Since I live in Frankfurt with this donation at
333 33. I wanted to get started while I'm still 33. The hack. As
a tech millennial, I wanted to add a note about your criticisms
of AI machine learning is basically statistics. Deep
learning is where you take a bunch of data and let the
computer find the statistical coordinate correlations on its
own using a lot of algebra and a lot of CPU time. Turns out that
computers are very good at this. After the computer crisis
statistical model can be used to generate probable correlations
based on sets of input. This works surprisingly well. And a
computer generated model trained on good data is often better at
predicting correlations than a human. This technology is real
and very impressive is what's behind software like image
recognition. Which has his moments of use
it has Yeah, it has its moments. Sure. Some of it.
The problem is that, by the way, I will say this. If Aaron seems
to be into this, when you come up with your stock market, AI
that actually can find some correlations between what's
going to happen to
Tesla. Give us give us a send us a note, send us a note
you'd be ignited instantly. Yes. The problem was is humans try to
deal with it because the problem is what is what humans try to do
with it. Because this technology is impressive. The current trend
in AI is to attempt to attempt to shoehorn every problem into
statistical modeling. And it doesn't work. Anyway, jingle
requests, you had that clip of the SJW screaming just screaming
over and over. Then someone took it and put some really nice
seven nice kind of rock behind
it. I don't know what the hell this is, John.
There may have been some goat scream mixed in. Not sure.
What's that show for the end of show if possible. So we have to
assume it's not I have
no idea. What is this? Let me say that's not it. I use
that social justice warrior.
That's the Korean lady. I really don't know what it is.
Anyway, err and signs off your American tech millennial in
Frankfurt in future Euro night. All right.
Oh, wait a minute. Maybe. Oh, I know. I know what he's
thinking. Maybe this we will build the wall. My idea. No, no,
no, I know what it is.
Alright, what standard show he wants to end to show.
Oh, okay. No, I just wanted to make sure I get it. Let me just
see if this is. This is Yoko.
I think that's what he's thinking of.
I think Yoko, let's just listen maybe? Well, yeah, she's just
social justice warriors. So let's just check and see if this
is getting Yoko. Okay, hopefully that has ended.
You've got karma.
All right. Thomas. Archduke Nussbaum, who needs a call out?
Yes. Yeah. We're so busy looking for the for the social justice
warrior. All right. Nussbaum.
1415 That's probably
what. Sorry, sorry, sorry. Yes.
Working 14 to 16 hours day so not a lot of time for soups and
such. Fort Worth is too hot has
been so hot in Texas has been hot here to really, ya know,
it's triple digits minimum every day. Oh
40. Senator grade,
something like that. Laurie IGL
or hl ieagle. I think in Dayton, Ohio, she drops down to
Associate Executive producers with $200. donation. And Dayton.
Happy birthday to my loving husband Jeff. Life is full for
ups and downs but definitely more ups with you by my side.
For jingles he would like foamer followed by goat scream also
would like our to call out our son just wants to call out their
son Justin as a douchebag. No explanation. Okay, just a
generalized douchebag and poor kid. I guess Justin? Yeah, yeah.
Oh my god.
That's a new mix.
Wait, I don't have that birthday on the list. So from Laura to
Jeff.
Okay. Laurie, Laurie. To Jeff. When does you celebrate? No
details. Okay. All right. I go.
We settled on
Aigle I think I go would be good. Yeah. Okay. I go to her
husband's sounds too much like a Apple version of hair gel. Dye
gel. Sir Mark Wilson, and Turner, 100 bucks. Baron and
Glasgow. The show has been fabulous. As always, I'm
dismayed at the levels of donations you received over the
summer, every summer gets it varies from summer to summer.
This was a bad one. Can I please have some jobs and flat hunting
karma as it seems I've been pretty short of luck lately.
Best wishes lesser, Mark Wilson, Baron of Glasgow and exile in
London. Yes, of
course. We'd be happy to do that.
Jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's vote for jobs. You've got karma
was supposed to be an upcoming real estate crash in London,
which should be
helped him quite a bit. Yeah, well, it's happening here too.
Yeah, it was about time. Yeah, no kidding.
Yeah, yeah. Prices are definitely coming down here.
Good. Well, good. Just in time for the zombie. Cluster. Whoa,
no, go away. Who's next?
That was it. That closer segment of the Associate Executive
producers, executive producers and everything in between.
All right, well, thank you very much. Executive and Associate
Executive producers. As you know, by now these credits are
legit. And you can use them anywhere credits are accepted
and recognized. LinkedIn seems to be working well, for people
who like jobs and the karma. I mean, what can I say you guys
came up with it. And it does seem to work. So we appreciate
that. And we'll be thanking more people $50. and above in our
second segment. And remember, another show, right here Sunday,
support us at devora.org/n.
A, and you've got to support us because we're like the little
shop on the corner, tell everyone about it.
Our formula is this, we go out for people in the mouth.
So the President leveled the playing field a
little bit.
With his dissident with everyone's with the anonymous, I
should say, with the general a conversation about the purge on
the social networks.
And he brought
Google into it.
I think what Google and what others are doing, if you look at
what's going on at Twitter, if you look at what's going on in
Facebook, they better be careful because you're you can't do that
to people, you can't do it. We have tremendous. We have
literally 1000s and 1000s of complaints coming in. And you
just can't do that. So I think that Google and Twitter and
Facebook, they're really treading on very, very troubled
territory. And they have to be careful. It's not fair to large
portions of the population.
Now, here's what's interesting about this, every deconstruction
of his statement that I saw, and there were a couple of tweets
that go along with that. They all focus on Google News. And I
think what the President was saying is, if you type in Trump
by focusing on Google News, that's how it was taken by all
of the media that I got every
season about news, that's what they Yes, that
was really it was very interesting because I'm, I
everyone tried it I'm sure you try to type in Trump news and if
you Have your suggestions on you'll see what pops up. And if
you hit Go ahead search, you'll see what pops to the top. But
everyone debunked his statement by saying, no, look, if you look
at Google News, Fox News is even on top. So they're talking, and
I don't know how many people I know I do it, you search for
something and then you hit the News tab.
Do you do that often? I do it a lot.
I do it a lot, too. But I but they seem to be thinking that
this is just about the news page. And not about a regular
search. Here's SAMUEL BURKE. On CNN. Now what did I wrote him
down? What does he do?
SAMUEL BURKE, Dude,
you just send it off sitting at these people showing up? Who the
hell is it?
He is
Business and Technology News correspondent for CNN. He
anchors programs on both CNN International and CNN en
Espanol. He hosts the AI report. And anchors the cybercafe daily
most listened to his deconstruction of it.
So Simon, why don't you give us a quick primer then on how
Google Google does actually determine the search results
when we type in a word like peppermint patty or something. I
don't know
what to be honest with you. We don't know all the details about
Google News searches because it uses an allergy. He's talking
about Google News searches. Now we read them. But we do know
some of the details. It uses an algorithm and all these
companies wanted to protect their algorithms. But because we
work in the news business, and we want our articles to show up
more we know and all outlets know this, not just HLN CNN, Fox
News, we all know this type of information that if there are
certain keywords you put in, it will do better in the Google
News results. One thing that's very useful is if you're the
person who breaks the stories, mckaela Pereira has the scoop.
And everybody saying so and so told Michaela Pereira this in an
interview, the original article where Makayla had this or the
video that will come up first. So it's a
lot of time No, that's that's not true. The best
information that everybody is citing not just CNN, the
Associated Press, also Fox News and CNBC. That will come up come
up, you can also make the results individual to you. And a
lot of it has to do with location, they want to give you
results in London that are different from what you might
get in New York or LA. So a lot of it is location based
manipulation of the information based upon you. Okay, that makes
sense. NPR don't want
my information based on my IP address I have I use VPNs.
That's why you get
you get Google Maps,
that people use them. And so why do they assume that I'm in
Mexico? I know I play New York, I'm not because I'm not because
you're not playing along with the program, what program the
program is hold that I have to use your own IP, no VPN, or
somebody's Social Security. Now,
you're a bad user.
Here's NPR saying the same thing. Tell us more about what
Google
and the industry are saying about the charge of suppressing
conservative media?
Sure. So Google is saying that, look, they don't incorporate
political leanings into their search results. And that's
probably true. If you look at Google News results, which
again, Google News results, is what Trump specifically is
talking about. No, no, I
don't think that he's what he's talking about. A recent research
came out last month that says actually, they are pretty
mainstream. They stick with, if anything, they over index for
large publications like The New York Times, and CNN, which of
course, if you're Trump means fake news. But in general, these
are just mainstream reputable reputations that Google does
lean Oh,
they're mainstream, reputable reputations. This is new. I
think he meant to say publications
in general, these are just mainstream reputable reputations
that Google has reputations on primarily.
And we know search results are the same for everyone, because
you've got your past search requests. It's an algorithm that
can build.
That's right. Although I would say what's interesting about
Google news is that people actually do get a fairly uniform
set of results. Whether you are liberal or conservative. I think
Google has intentionally made this sort of a more neutral
playing field, which I think is important. And when you look at
the possibility of regulation, or a possible response from
Google, the worry becomes does Google end up just turning
Google News into yet another filter bubble? Like fake pigs
with news feeds have become presumably these
guys are so stupid, and here they had the opportunity to pile
jump onto their actual competitor? Google is taking
their lunch. They are taking money.
Yeah, but I'm gonna stop you right there and say, I'm gonna
want you to continue but I want to have this thought thrown out.
What are they thinking? Yes, there are Google is and Facebook
and Facebook. Probably even more so I'll give Twitter to
Twitter's news and Twitter to a lesser extent Our competitors.
Yes. And if they're if they're getting beat down, why are you
coming to their defense, they are going to put you out of
business out of business.
It's so stupid. I mean, this is a fantastic opportunity. And you
heard the other guys who all well, you know, we know how to
get the SCA goes to go. And so it goes to the top. We know,
these are very simplistic thinkers very and just, it's a
head shaker. They should be all over this.
You're not they've clueless this are American Meat, even in
Europe. And I think it's kind of dumb to tell Google not to track
your, you know, if you're a newspaper, I don't want to be
indexed. I think it's just some stupidity that but at the same
time, if you're looking at them as competitors, you know, you
might want
to make some noise about it. Yeah, well, here's,
these guys are so dumb. And I've said this before and columns, I
put this in about once or once every once awhile, I give them a
needle by saying our mainstream media in particular the big
shots, the guys who are looking at everything, and they got the
they make the big money, they make millions of dollars per
year to do this. Many of them make 10s of millions. And they
cannot they nobody predicted that they were gonna get
borderline wiped out by the Internet. They just didn't see
it. They were there because they're, they're terrible at
their job.
There you go.
Here's NPR. taking this one step further. I thought for an outfit
like NPR, I expected better
President Trump is again attacking alphabets, Google,
Facebook, Twitter and other tech companies accusing them of
trying to silence people. Well, I think
that Google and Facebook and Twitter, I think they treat
conservatives and Republicans very unfairly
addressing reporters at the White House today, Trump also
made an unsubstantiated statement that the company's
activities may be illegal. He's targeting the tech giants after
they recently announced they'd identified and shut down fake
pages or accounts linked to Russia and Iran that appear to
be spreading misinformation about politics or policies. So
there's NPR
basically saying, Oh, he did this because you wanted to
distract from some other bad news?
Oh, yeah. About About but but
instead of arguing the point,
but listen, but not just bad news. But that the Russian bots,
that he of course, is all four have been busted. And listen,
again. This is really this is low for NPR. Let me see. Let me
wrap this up. Again. President Trump
is again attacking. Here you go. He's targeting the tech giants
after they recently announced they'd identified and shut down
fake pages or accounts of Russia and Iran that appear to be
spreading misinformation about politics or policies.
I mean, that's low. No,
they did the association. Right. You're that you're right. That
was a good catch.
It's that's that's that's just that's not journalism. I mean,
why don't you say that? He's clearly why don't you lower
yourself even lower to MSNBC, and just say he's doing it to
distract? Because they just say it. They're not trying to fool
around it like NPR. That's disgusting. And by the way, not
journalism.
Here's if I'm always tempted to write about this whole, you have
to really do a little more research than I'm willing to do.
If you look at the child pornography laws, there are
provisions about storing these photos and keeping them or
wherever you're doing. How come these large operations that
store photos for free online or like Tumblr, for example, has a
lot of very, very lewd photos in its archives. How come somebody
doesn't bust these guys, these big companies that have they're
storing these horrible photos?
Well, not just storing but they're identifying then we know
from the Facebook video reviewer interview and the Dutch
newspaper that they're seeing this stuff are they also
reporting it? There you go. I mean, are they reporting it? Are
they immune? Are they just saying Oh, no good get rid of
it? Or do they do are people getting picked up for this? You
would hope so.
you'd hope so but I doubt it is rich too much work. If I've got
a wide open system and I've just let the thing go nuts and people
are uploading all sorts of illegal material by today's
standards and by today's laws, and many of the laws are very
harsh and it's my system is filled to the brim with them how
come I'm not taking the
jail cuz you because you google
you get a you get a pass you get a pass. You just need a
different question that I saw raised. Yeah. Facebook and
Google are both and Twitter. I don't know. But Facebook and and
Google are both
government contractors. Right? They have government contracts,
and plenty of them.
Well, that makes them that makes that puts certain
responsibilities on them. And I don't know if they segregate
this out by business units, or maybe by calling yourself
alphabet and moving Google over somewhere else. But you can't
just suppress speech. If you're a government contractor certain.
I believe certain laws start to apply to you if you are, in
fact, a contractor. You're partially the government.
Maybe is there anything to that?
I don't know. There. I never thought of that.
I find
that that's interesting. We get lawyers out there. Maybe some
give some insight into this. For sure, though,
we saw the first I was kind of waiting for this to happen. The
mob kicked someone off of Mastodon so for those of you who
do not know there's a decentralized social network
that stemmed I think originally from good news, social and now
you have it's a protocol and many different types of
community servers can speak this and so you can follow people all
over the world.
No way. Just like a Twitter decentralized Twitter, yeah,
decentralized Twitter where the only person who can kick you off
as the person who server you're on. Or of course if you're on a
server that doesn't want to be bothered by k k k Nazi Quadroon
you can block the entire other server which is I think is the
way it should go. But we had a we had a celebrity move over
away from Twitter, leave Twitter and go to the Federation as we
call it, the Federation of social networking space.
Wil Wheaton Yes. Where did he quit Twitter?
He quit Twitter went he already had an account of Mastodon and
he started posting again and the mob I think it might it might
have been a mastodon dot social the mob
mob insofar as the public net that mafia
know the mob, the mob but the online mob. Yeah, they just
started reporting him over and over again until the the
administrator said, Hey, man, I can't deal with this anymore. I
gotta kick you off the server. So they're kicking people off
there to is great.
It's fantastic. Wow, now he has he was? Yeah,
he has an optional that that kind of thing. That pressure is
not Daxing. That's a different thing. Oh, well, this, this
would be a name for doing something like that to someone?
Well, yeah. It's called the power of the people which I I'm
still baffled. The only people who figured this out are Media
Matters. The new outfits sleeping giant. They've they
understand that as long as you're dealing with a
corporation that has that whose customers is not you whose
customer is someone else? Whose customer is advertisers, who's
just, you know, mainly advertisers, that you can force
them to do almost anything you want.
And I'm and I am when do we just quit this and do that?
I'm telling you, I am in awe of what some of these guys do. If
you've seen the I'm sure you've seen the the Soros Media Matters
Social Media Censorship document that was been floating around.
And this was the plan all along. And David Brock, you know what?
Kudos to this guy. They figured it out.
They figured it out all figured it out.
I mean, you look at what Sleeping Giants is doing.
They're very smart. So you know. And of course, a lot of these
ads are to show up on places because of ad networks. In fact,
most of them do. Not a lot of direct placements on Breitbart.
But the minute an ad shows up in rotation, they start tweeting on
mass to the advertiser saying, Hey, do you know that you're
showing up on Breitbart? Here's how you can stop it. And they
all reply the same way. Oh, gee, thanks for bringing it to his
attention. We'll take care of it right away. But that's just
that's just minor that's minor stuff. You can look at the
someone sent me a backup, the background story of the the
NASCAR sponsorship of Lilly diabetes, so
yeah, it's ridiculous. Yeah. What is the background on that?
Okay, this is just tell people what it is. Again,
this is from Zack Zack Brown. He says I'm glad to discuss the
incident involving Conor Daly on the show. I want to let you know
while you discussed him the most ridiculous part of the story you
left off two parts that lead up to Connor losing his sponsorship
from Eli Lilly. Here it is the entire event started last week
when the local play by Blake play by play caller for the
Indianapolis Colts. Bob Lamy retold the story about an
IndyCar driver in the 80s the dropped the N word while being
interviewed. Bob told this story while it worked to a few good
fellow co workers. The problem was he told the story actually
using the word. And one employee who was uncomfortable about it
told HR. The Colts then forced lay me to retire. When the news
broke, that the story was linked to local racing news analyst
Derek Daly as being the guy he talked about using the N word in
the story, they fired daily and daily stated when he used the
word he was describing himself, but doesn't matter at the time,
he was from Europe, and he said didn't have the same racial
undertones like in America, the poor excuse. So you got to add
that to now his kid. His sponsorship for his car being
lost after something as dad said 30 years earlier. So really
three people out of a job well, not the driver.
But it means he's, he's kind of out of his sponsorship.
Yeah, but all you got to do is just because no one wants to be
involved in it. Eli Lilly's like, we don't want to be
involved. So we just pull our sponsorship, there is so
much power chance there's so much
power that you write if we just kit if we quit this we took our
our mailing list, and we said Alright, everyone, here's how
we're going to do today and we could just go after firm we
could it's like the digital version of the Al Sharpton
racket. And it works. And you know what, if Republicans are
interested in doing anything, they should stop bitching and
moaning about it being unfair and and see if they can float
some stuff the other way? Yeah, set up shop.
Now this reminds me of two other issues. San Francisco's poop
problem.
They got a problem.
They have a poop map. So everyone's pooping in San
Francisco. So now some store owners are paying people not to
poop anywhere near their
store. Oh, excellent gig.
And to take it one step further. Anybody can participate in this.
Now let's take it one step further. The idea and that this
is partially my idea, but I think it's also has to be
happening anyway. Or do you just think is logical? You pay these
guys who are public poopers to go poop in front of your
competition store. Hey, hey, I see a poop in there. Or just go
around the cities see a pooping all over the place. A captain
tell you what, I'm gonna give you 20 bucks. And I want you to
go poop in front of Macy's, especially the front door. Just
go poop there. And if you do that, I'll give you 20 bucks a
week if you keep doing it. That's got to be how can anybody
to help you like they'll put you into poop? I'll give them 10
Everybody go poop out in front of Macy's. And you give you to
make some money on this. I don't know. Anyway,
I don't know if Macy's could do much worse. I don't think the
poop will make people go
lightweights mean lightweights. Now San Francisco's got it they
got our visa got trailers, they got cooked people living in
their cars. They got people on the streets they live living in
tents are shooting up. It's unbelievable.
Hundreds of 1000s of homeless eating from garbage cans in
America
and pooping on the streets in San Francisco and
then there's nothing better when you're pooping on the streets in
San Francisco.
Call around the world be careful where you put your feet
did you hear that song? We played the end of show mix. I
love that song pooping in the street
now I have a native ad which I think kind of fits into this.
We're done with it we're done with this I guess so. I guess
that's all
I needed just to say that just a funny idea.
Right Well I was just gonna go back to the to the whole purge
and just wrap that up and just say that you know, there's still
I guess is it Warner still floating? Warner still floating
as regulations trying to hold that in front of them. But you
know, the tech giants had a secret meeting at Twitter
headquarters and I think
unfortunately I don't believe anyone went to this meeting but
I suppose some people would go no would you go to your your
your like to see your page or one of these guys are Tim Cook
and you're working at the you're down in Cupertino. You're going
to haul your butt up to you know do this
to the poop street No,
no, you're going to get other things to
leak that then what would who put that out there? What do you
think that was about?
Was it Twitter just be
bus was to make is that something's going on? They were
concerned. I don't know why they got it here.
I got here Buzzfeed News first reported on the meeting after
obtaining an email sent by Facebook's head of cybersecurity
policy inviting a dozen companies to meet at Twitter's
headquarters okay
was a low level was low level.
Well, they're not going to do anything. But I will say what
are they going to what is the response going to be when And it
doesn't matter who wins or who loses. It'll be Russian bots.
It'll be some or some version of their fault
Don't you think? Maybe
it's not gonna leave the it's not gonna leave the building for
a while let's put it that way. Anyway, let's get back to this
native ad that I found what I think was the most egregious
ever
you'd think it would say native ad?
Yes, but I'm gonna give you the I'm gonna give you the the cue
and I'm glad it doesn't because I don't want you to plan it yet,
because then it needs to be set up. ABC News with David Muir is
the one that I saw site as constantly as the biggest
violator of journalistic whatever EDIC or integrity
integrity with these native ads they keep doing but I've never
seen one quite like this this was I don't even have the whole
out I get most of it. But this was a part of their they have
this thing at the end of all their new shows called Made in
America made in America. Then they go highlight some company
as Made in America. Oh, there's the the pillow guy and
somebody's making
my pillow.com
somebody without making you know, galvanized buckets. Oh,
it's made in Americans made in Americans made in America. And
in sound, but I've never seen anything quite this promotional.
David Mira goes into the fields to discuss the thing. And the
whole thing goes on and on and on. And then so I have some
commentary to make about about the whole thing because it's
misleading. It's just play this now
you'll remember those commercials. They've been around
a long time. But did you know the story behind this classic
you remember the ads? Ad the challenge that you can't eat
just one and we were up for it? With millions getting together
this Labor Day weekend? We go right to the chip aisle? I know
it will.
David Chris, how are you? Great to meet you. Good
to see you too. I'll go anywhere where I can get some chips.
Frito Lay ruffles to speedos that of course. Lay's chips made
with potatoes right here in America. It's the classic right?
Yes. Which is why you call it the classic. That's right. In
American Classic from an American inventor, H W. Lai. He
was a traveling salesman during the Great Depression
1931 He started peddling chips out of the back of his truck.
Seriously serious. That's
how he made a living. It was selling potato chips out of this
Ford Model A at the same time. See Doolin had bought the recipe
for another American Classic Fritos. And he started making
them out of his mother's kitchen. So he's making Fritos.
HW les is making his chips. They're competing against one
another and who knew that they would combine?
That's right. That's how Frito Lay became FRITO lay those two
of them joining forces together. 1961
with a little hyphen in the middle. That's right. Workers on
the line inspecting the chips just 10 cents a bag back then.
And all these years later, the potatoes steal from farmers
across America. 120 Farms in 25 states, black gold farms and
Live Oak Florida among them.
My great grandpa started growing potatoes in 1928. Were potato
people we enjoy potatoes,
those potatoes loaded and trucked two and a half hours
north to Perry Georgia 1200 30 workers waiting to turn them
into those famous Lay's chips 30 plants in the US and it turns
out four to five potatoes go into every bag of chips. My
husband and I we play a game in the grocery store looking for
Lay's chips in your shopping cart.
He's grocery shopping interesting for a
while back at that grocery store. We're gonna have to like
put the camera on hold here sample. Time for the taste test.
No one can eat just one. Thanks to those farmers. Those workers
tonight what isn't possible to eat just one I tried.
Wow. Two minutes. Two minutes.
It was like I took a lot of spaces out it was longer than
two minutes was about 215. Two and it was it was a jaw dropper.
Made in America this guy this is the shallowest Made in America
they've ever done and it's an obvious just promote pre Labor
Day promotion for potato chips. And leading the public to
believe that this idiot lay was actually the guy who invented
them, man and I do want to give them the background on potato
chips. And
well first of all, we might also want to point out this is
owned by Pepsi. Pepsi owns Frito Lay.
And this is just I don't know, is this a make good or is this a
setup or whatever? It's
straight up straight up. native ad sold by the advertising
department. I
agree and I think it's your right as a setup for Labor Day
and get everybody into the mood. We got to buy some chips might
as well get the free lightships she's young and and sadly was
just a dumb story wasn't even interesting.
And then they had some woman they had to pat it with this
woman saying my husband just just some woman that works
there. My husband and I play a game. We look for Frito Lay bags
and grocery carts. Yes. That's the kind of game you play. Is
that what you're playing with your husband? You'll find
something a little sexier. So let me just give a little
background for people so they know what's going on. Unite the
potato chip. Ah, we're getting the history of the potato chip.
Yeah, where do you think it was invented?
That Germany I would think France loop and now she pathauto
Nope. Invited invented in 1817 By the way, not 1937 by this
guide lay in the great in UK Harlesden recipe for something
similar today's potato chip This is William kitsch nurse in
Wheeling to get his cookbook. The cooks Oracle first published
in 1817, which was a best seller in England, the United States
would love to get a copy of the 1820 two's edition version of
the recipe 104 called potatoes fried and slices or shavings and
reads. That gives the recipe
that was the original efficient chips I guess. No chips or
french fries. Yeah.
Early recipes for potato chips United States are found in Mary
Randolph, Virginia housewife in 1824. And an NK M. Lee's cooks
own book in 1832, both of which explicitly said kitchen as they
give him credit. Now, so the story is a little side note.
However, a legend associates the creation of potato chips with
Sarasota Springs, New York decades later. By the late 19th
century, a popular version of the story attributed the dish to
George Crumb, a half black half Native American cook at Moon's
Lake House he was trying to delay I gotta play read this
whole thing because it's got a punch line was trying to appease
an unhappy customer on the 24th of August in 1853. The customer
gets sending his French fried potatoes back, complaining that
they were too thick, too soggy, too soggy and not salted enough,
frustrated crunk crumb personally sliced several
potatoes extremely thin, fry the potato chips to a crisp and then
season them with excess salt to Grom surprise the soon came to
be called Saratoga chips, a name that persisted at least into the
mid 20th century. A version of this story popularized in the
1973 national advertising campaign by the St. Regis Paper
Company which manufactured the packaging for the chips said
that crumbs customer was Cornelius Vanderbilt no crap
more you know in the morning Oh wow.
I feel so schooled
yeah already know more than a college graduate of coming out
of the one of these
Yes, well, it's good just since I've since I don't have no
I don't have it was disgusting. It was a disgusting store. I'm
not gonna buy a free Lay's potato chips
dog boycotting. There you go. That's what we need. Now. I'm
just not gonna buy him now till 20,000 of your friends and we
got power. Yeah, well, this story. I'm very tired of hearing
this. Since the inception of our show. This has been a topic in
the news. And I don't understand why we just still kind of go.
Especially with all the pizza gators, and everyone out there
so concerned for children's welfare.
Archbishop Vigano, who you mentioned earlier, he was the
noon co the ambassador to the US for the Vatican here for about
five years. He also ran all of the ambassadors embassies around
the world for the vatic yell recipe for a very well respected
man of integrity. a sharpshooter. And a man who has
been a whistleblower in the past. In 2011. He wrote secret
letters to Pope Benedict at the time out in corruption in the
Vatican. Those were leaked and became the Vatican leaks
scandal. It was his expose days meant only for the pope sighs
that got worldwide attention isn't releasing this letter
Well, 77 years old claims he wants to unveil his conscience.
He can't go to his death with the information he has. And he
sees the corruption and the double dealing in the Vatican.
He's exposing it his allegation of principle one is that between
2009 and 2010, Pope Benedict imposed a penalty on Archbishop
McKarrick because he knew they had paid settlements to men that
he had abused. He also took them out of public ministry. Now when
Pope Francis became Pope Vigano claims he informed the pope
himself of McKarrick misdeeds and the Pope ignored this and
restored McKarrick we should put up the full screen I want people
to see this. This is a full screen from the letter of
Vegana. Read. Watch this. It says Francis knew from at least
June of 23rd 2013, that McKarrick was a serial predator.
In an extremely dramatic moment for the universal church, he
must acknowledge his mistakes. And in keeping with the
proclaimed principle of zero tolerance, Pope Francis must be
the first to set a good example for cardinals and bishops who
covered up from Derek's abuses, and resign. Along with all of
them. He's calling for the Pope's resignation. And for all
of these peoples is
exploding all around. Yeah. And this is coming on that big
family meeting in Ireland, which was not well attended by
Yeah, that the family meeting in Ireland, apparently, according
to reporting, and I, this is all over the Dutch press, Pope
Francis said that children who show quote, homosexual
tendencies should be treated with understanding and not to be
condemned or ignored.
Here's the pope reacting to the news on a plane returning from
that family conference in Ireland.
I read it, and I will say sincerely that I must say this
to you, and all of you who are interested with equally read the
document carefully and judge it for yourselves. I will not say
one word on this. I think the statement speaks for itself. I
don't
know, man. I mean, I pick the guy myself, you know, so I feel
bad. But it sounds like this is here's the exact code when it
shows itself from childhood. There's a lot that can be done
through psychiatry, to see how things are, if it is something
else, if it shows itself after 20 years. You know, um, you
know, there's a couple things we can do here. But maybe, maybe
the church should just say, You know what, we're gay. And and
it's okay you can be you can be a spiritual leader and gave to
stop stop the abuse is here and of course, it's always comes out
when it's, you know, it's passed the statute of limitations. Is
this some evil crap that's going on? And where's the outrage?
But I can tell you answer that question. Okay. Well, I can
answer it by asking you a question. Does it involve Trump?
Ha, no, of course.
What am I thinking? Yeah. Oh, it's just
I'm this is for 10 years this this story has been it's been
continued just doesn't stop. Yeah, you know, and they don't
do anything and there's cover ups and it's obvious, and I just
don't understand why this just continues to go Can't Can we
just I mean, this is our post racial period. We should Well,
someone needs to bring Trump into the conversation so if
Trump
comes into the kind of jumps into to it stupidly, which can
always happen oh, yeah, that would work. Then boom in the
story could could take off it gets some legs but
but I mean, this surely is intelligent people see, there's
a flaw somewhere in the system. You can't get married. You got
to be celibate, and he has a you know?
Well, while we're on the topic, let's discuss how that became
how did that celibacy become an element of the priesthood and
the
five I am dying to learn that
this happened to be researched by JC buzzkill Jr, once had a
dinner table conversation he brought it up. And it turns out
that back in the day, I guess, would be for the celibacy had
never used to be celibacy. The church was riddled with so much
nepotism. One Pope would assign his brothers the next pope right
by everybody would be did everybody be related? It would,
it was so out of control. Because the church was the
center of everything. And it had so much money and everything.
Everything was nepotism, nepotism, nepotism that they had
to put a stop to a net was their solution.
So you can't you can't have sex anymore you can't procreate that
was the idea can you cannot family
rarely can your family to
wait a minute so this has nothing to do with God saying
you got to dedicate yourself to me.
No, it has to do with the corruption of the early church.
Ha Well, let's undo that. We could
the pope could the pope could easily do that.
It's a different situation today because in the today's church if
you didn't have the celibate stuff going on the any sort of
corruption that once occurred in the past would be stopped by
social media.
Hey Pope don't worry about it. It's all right. It's all good
social socialists. They'll take care of it for you. And they
should start their own or at least a dating service they got
to do something this um this is very very troubling too far and
they have to it has gone too far. Now on that, you know, of
course this doesn't fall under hashtag me too. Although it
should. If we had another story we
see case performance on Sunday night in New York Comedy Club
was just 15 minutes his appearance on announced the
crowd gave him a standing ovation. It was his first
performance since being accused of exposing and touching himself
in front of multiple women. He would just like regular Louis to
club owners as he made no mention of it. It is act
I do wish he had, I think it would have been much better for
him, I think, would have taken some of the heat off of us.
In November Louie CK admitted that the accusations of sexual
misconduct were true. The response was swift, his deals
with FX network, Netflix and HBO were canceled. Now the comedian
and the New York club are facing criticism for his performance.
It's very difficult position to be standing between a person and
his livelihood.
I know that me too was supposed to destroy a lot of men's
careers. It hasn't exactly but what it didn't do is give women
the opportunity to have careers
last May one of Luisi gays accusers Rebecca core,
I'm not sure what you can listen to that.
Just referring to the comic, one of the I think the women that he
was jacking off in front of her Yun you know, for unknown
reasons
she doing there were comics and female comics and I think okay,
I gotcha. So that actually has masturbation in those situations
I think may have been his review of their sets.
But what it didn't do is give women the opportunity to have
careers
last May one of Luisi gays accusers, Rebecca Cory wrote an
article saying she received death threats and was attacked
online since going public. Also writing the idea that CK
reentering the public eye would ever be considered a comeback
story is disturbing. The guy exploited his position of power
to abuse women. In his statement last year, Louie CK wrote, There
is nothing about this that I forgive myself for adding I will
now step back and take a long time to listen. Not tonight. His
critics don't think he took long enough.
Ah, this is another one.
Yeah. Well, first of all this premiere, remember, this was the
15 minutes set, which is like open mic kind of time you get
Yeah, he went up there and did 15 minutes and left. I mean,
maybe was, you know, in the back you I mean, he wasn't announced
he wasn't booked. It wasn't a thing that you know, it wasn't a
big deal. Somebody was but you I took the time away from other
comics trying to come up? Because it's like an open mic
such situation. And it's 15 minutes. I mean, come on. This
whole thing was a bogus story. Well, what
what is disappointing to me is just the overall impact and
effectiveness of the Me too. And hashtag time's up movement. And
we knew that it was purely that was really brought into play and
overhyped. It had peak moments with the with the creepy
Republican who had signed a yearbook or had someone sitting
on his lap, whatever it was, and then after that special election
was over, it went to the bottom of the stack and it hasn't
really come back up. And where are the women now? I mean, I
think that they had a good thing going on people were you know,
yeah, I I think men were like, holy shit. Yeah, this look at
these douchebags. And now it's just on it can come back and
Matt Lauer will have another show soon. And it's all it's all
just it's one big fail at this point. And super disappointing.
I don't know that the 15 minutes set by by Louie CK was
it's just indicative of things to come. I mean, look, if you if
you want to ban plastic, and
I'm the one who said that thing was a flop so right, but
everything, everything these days, excuse me, can be can be
driven and
steered through social media.
I mean, if the women really or the and the allies, they really
wanted to do something they could the end you're right. I
mean, it's and there's no Trump in the story. So it's not good
enough. If you want to make change. It's so possible. It's
so easy. You just need to organize and you can choose all
these networks. It's so easy. What Louie CK what you want to
show Oh, no, we're just gonna boycott Netflix or HBO or
whoever you're gonna go. We're just gonna tweet horrible things
about him and we'll drive if you have advertisers will drive them
away. This is where is that movement? It's not Trump. It
just seems like everyone's mind control. The only word that
works
is Trump. It was a good initiative.
Now If you want to start to make control about plastic sure
everyone knows how to do that we got straws up Fish's noses. Oh,
and the latest
experts found plastic in the stomach of a dead Blue Whale
washed ashore in eastern Japan earlier this month sounds
bad. Oh my god they found plastic in Washington shore
Well,
they say it's an example of the spread of marine plastic
contamination. National Museum of Nature and Science experts
and other scientists discovered a piece of plastic inside the
male club the memo was done on a beach in Kanagawa Prefecture the
plastic is reported to measure roughly three centimeters by
three centimeters
three there's a whale okay so a whale
through the whales guts to find this little piece of plastic
thank
you I didn't see the whale the sliced open or anything you just
see oh
my god look what I found it could be like something that guy
from the guys you know he's got a it was
a dime bag a week. It was a dime bag of weed. Well it consumed
Oh my three centimeters by three centimeters isn't is really inch
and a half.
It's an inch and a half by an inch and a half because I'm not
discovering the in I
would have still been feeding
on meats mother's milk. We were quite shocked to find these
kinds of materials in the stomach to reduce the amount of
pollution in the ocean.
The United Nations Environment Program report warns that marine
plastic contamination will likely become more serious. It
estimates that by 2050 the oceans will have more plastic
than fish and 99% of seabirds will end up ingesting plastic.
More plastic well let's make it let's make the plastic bags look
like fish then. So what did you say the size was three
centimeters by three centimeters
Yeah, which is one inch 1.1 inches by 1.1 this was an inch
Yeah, they they found that I don't know how you'd find it
while they were going in there to cut away blubbers
it was it hurting the poor animal was he couldn't eat crap
it out.
Well the insinuation is he died because of it they don't say
that
way died because of it. I think half the people around at
Berkeley have a you know square inch of plastic in them. I'm
gonna show us by donating to no agenda Imagine all the people

we give them the travel karma. A note about the Austin Texas meet
up we are going to have to delay the original date of October 6,
as that is that is Austin City Limits live weekend. Which you
do not want to be in Austin for that. It's two weekends and the
it's kind of like South by with the amount of people that are in
town only the Zilker Park where the big shows are being held but
it's just a mess. You can't get a hotel room You can't park so
we're going to delay that until further notice I will move
it to Waco. Now,
now you're talking also I got some notes from people who said
oh, I was in Chicago wanting to
do a meet up. So here's a thought
you are perfectly capable of organizing meetups. If I'm
coming to Chicago organizing
a good one in Washington DC in the Washington DC group looks
like it might be a silver
Yeah, well self starters like come on set up set it up. Then
you know and now this case I might not have gone because it
was just two days and Tina and I hadn't seen each other for for
the weekend. So maybe I don't know we could have dropped by
but a little self starter ship is appreciated. And while we'll
have more news as meetups occur, it's very important that we meet

value for value here at the no agenda show we can talk about
anything so far they've not been able to kick us off
well I mean there's ways no not really yeah Pay Pal. Yeah, well
we just have to go to Bitcoin that's not gonna work. Yeah, it
would of course it would work. No it wouldn't. You know, who's
you know who's moving money to Bitcoin According to TMZ
know Bill Cosby. There you have it, quote,
he moved close to 5 million into bitcoin after an expert told him
it's practically untraceable and impossible for anyone but him to
retrieve if it's good enough for a bill it's good enough for us.
Well, what he's trying to do there is I put some money aside
so it can't be can't be attached.
That's the beauty of Bitcoin.
You can do that in a car with a Cayman Island bank account.
Okay? You get a Cayman Island bank account. I mean, you have
to declare it gotta go to the Cayman Islands. No, you don't
you can do it over the over the internet. All right, well, you
do that and I'll just put it in Bitcoin is a problem with
Bitcoin is that if you if he puts 5 million in Bitcoin he if
it could be worth 10 more and could be worth 500 bucks?
I don't think so. I think he's doing the right thing. I know
you're a big Bitcoin I am now Yes, yes, I am. But here's
something you
launched the
wine if you really launched it, but you had a problem with the
word binge.
Why should I think I launched it?
Yes. So what was your problem again with the Navy I don't
like the word and I don't like its implications. And I don't
like this that it be suggested people do this. It's a bad it's
a word indicating a bad habit. I binged he'd been just like binge
drinker. Somebody who goes overboard does it too much is a
bad thing. It should be it should be it should be
discouraged not encouraged. That was my real bitch about this.
These guy Oh, binge watch. I'm gonna binge watch Oh, I spent
the weekend binge watching. I mean, like, well, it's it's on
another podcast you
view my friend could be running Netflix. Yes, word is out. They
have told all of their actors. When you're doing promotion for
your series and for the Netflix streaming service you are
verboten forbidden and not to speak of binge watching because
Netflix wants its brand to see more luxurious more Luke's and
they feel the term binge cheapens the brand
yes like potato chips you get catches the one
I do know this is their success. I understand that they
don't like the term but the it is their success this idea that
you don't have to wait for the episode next week and now they
want to ban their binge
man the binge it's possible
that that's an interesting situation as you mentioned it
because why would you take one of the your success factor your
success factor that's factor as lowbrow as it might be and is as
associative with down and out drunks and other bad
associations as it might be? It is a it is a
I mean it's become a verb man it's really point it is it's
their it's their unique selling proposition
over 18 episodes came out I'm gonna sit down and watch them
all binge man on a binge it but please
don't say binge
that interesting just changed the word.
Ooh, what can we use instead of binge we can help them out
but let's take a look at the other synonyms for binge
okay
this is a very good idea on the spot you know where we do that
okay,
in this case just means the internet in general
now we Yes.
Okay, here we go. So, so binge means a short period devoted to
indulging in an activity to excess. Okay, we got Got some
synonyms coming How about mainly especially drinking alcohol or
eating? Like Bach? I like this is
mainlining How about this mainlining Amen I mainline that
show okay that's a no yes exactly splurge
splurge can we use a splurge? Looking at
I'm not looking at over indulge. I got drunk fling.
I like Master binge
master binge again maybe Louie CK can make a comeback. Be a
fair bender. I don't know I went on a bender. Bender.
I can see what they're not liking the term binge if these
are all the synonyms well splurge now that's not good.
Master binging leave me alone man
a master big
blowout?
No no I don't think they have
right dissolute dissipation depravity
pig out take out good oh, this
is not good if they want to have a man they want their brand to
be more Luke's
well there's not going to get there with the with this
approach. Fast live fornication? Gluttony luxury over and dough
knockout knockout a season you could knock it out.
Knock it out. List of very loops I think none of
it is Luke's. Let's face it. You've got a low rent brand my
friend. You got shitty ass comedy specials. You got
documentaries that don't really deserve to see the light of day.
He got some great series. We love to binge him stick
with it. Maybe I'm just
Yeah, I think they're being pretentious. That's the problem
tennis is a downfall. Yeah. Yes started another operation is
read try another operation. You know there's other movies
operations out there and they try to make it potty is no good.
Now they really shouldn't be doing that should think of
themselves as a lower class.
Second year, just forget the problem them making them for
their first
year but
lower class. Yeah. And that's the success. You don't want to
be Luke's. Oh, wait. Oh, wait. Oh, wait. Oh, stop. Now I know
what's going on here. Obama's coming to the channel.
Oh, that's why
Obama's are the ones that are hottie he
may be they don't want
the bench thing. Hmm.
Well, I think your platform is a little low and
low rent.
We'd like to make it a little more Luke's, Michelle and I
would like to make it a tad more Luke's now that we're coming to
the
platform. Now Nice. Maybe, right. Well, it ain't gonna
happen. No, no, but
I thought I'd just let you know that you kicked that off. And I
think that because of you, they you brought it to their
attention. It's a disgusting word. And they don't like it
anymore. So you should be on the board of directors. Yes, dogs
are people too. And we all know that and we love having people
take care of our dogs as Jay still doing her dog walking.
She's retired from dog getting a lot of offers to manage and dish
with David even wag is you know, they're just talking to them.
Oh, they're free. They're recruiting her
a little bit of recruiting and it was when she gets called in a
beggar to go walk some dogs.
Well, it's it's popular and the interesting things happen when
you use the apps for your dog walker dog sitting gone
wrong has won Colorado Springs homeowner warning others about a
popular app
Fox 21 Sarah Ferguson shows us the situation he walked into
after scheduling the dog sitter
general smell in the House race nori. Yeah, was just disgusting.
I've had all the windows and doors open
a smell he discovered after using the popular dog walking
app, WAG he came home around 1am And he noticed two men without
their shirts on sitting on this couch. This is what he says he
saw next,
there was an open bottle of personal lubricant and a
camcorder on the table. So it's pretty self explanatory what was
going on? But
to be completely honest, I didn't have WD 40 And my kids
were stuck in my car.
What a minute. We went from loop to WD 40. That's not loop
said on this.
It is actually Yeah, but it's not personal lube.
No. It is. But there is that was the old that was not you're
cutting it up. No, no this no this was the story was presented
you watching what's
this is well local news of course self explanatory what was
going on
but to be completely honest I didn't have WD 40 And my kids
were stuck in my car grabbing what I had in my car.
Oh, okay. I guess her key was stuck in it that was weird. It
went from the lube to the WD 40. So I guess she had to go back
and things but you know, I do my first full time and I didn't
think to put it back in my car cleat says
that wasn't it. His sheets were also dirty and he looked closer.
There's also what I can only assume are bodily fluids on the
couch. I
wouldn't know anything about that because I I know that I
took a shower at this house. A towel and that was before my
friend's
tweet says his dog Jimbo was also locked in a bedroom sitting
in his own urine acting terrified.
Just a total mess. And I can only imagine what four Jimbo saw
in there. Jimbo for
dogs that are had a rating of 4.96 out of five and had
completed a combination of 305 walks and dog fittings.
So she's saying there was no lube? That was my WD 40 Oh my
god,
we should try that some Oh, no, man, that's that's not I'm not
trying to say anything baby. That's just WD 40 My keys. The
guy
was pulled over for marijuana. He says it's not my marijuana,
we find it in your underwear. So it's not my underwear.
What they should have had his ranch hand that would have done
it. Someone's getting
a recipe for success to me.
Ranch and that's the stuff and people who would let people
enough is dangerous. It's so good
to have people letting people into the house to get their dog
and said, Hey, look, I took a shower at his place. I mean,
this shouldn't be a problem. Just wanna take a shower. I'm
gonna walk his dog and take a shower. Yeah.
That's great.
Well, that's why you don't use those kinds of services. You use
a really legitimate operation.
Yes. Divorce Act dog walking, LLC.
Am I right? Go? I got a question for you getting that like it's
not a full ask Adam. But it's kind of one because I know you
won't get it. Oh, ask Adam what country contributed the most
refugees to the United States.
I do know this China. Play
returned to the crisis in Venezuela and beyond.
Venezuelans are now the largest group by nationality seeking
asylum in the US. Last year, more than 28,000 people applied
for that status, five times the number in 2015. There are
fleeing political turmoil, and a country in economic freefall
that is threatening his neighbors. Today, the Brazilian
military is deploying to a region along its border with
Venezuela, that has suffered a spike in violence since
Venezuelan refugees arrived. Now,
the situation in Venezuela, which is not covered because
isn't involved Trump, right, not covered much by the mainstream
media, it was covered by PBS News. And I want to just play
the end of their reporter this part of it the Venezuela rundown
with his theory at the end, and I want to preface it by saying
that a couple of things. One is Maduro guy is really a bad guy.
And and if you remember when John Perkins, the guy wrote The
Confessions of an economic hitman was local here. And I
went to talk to him at a roll roll out.
I mean, after he flipped after he rolled out
his new version of the same old book, which must have some edits
in it. Obviously not gonna go through it. But and I asked him
specifically about Venezuela. Because it seems because he's a
big fan of Ecuador, and he wants to, you know, he thinks he has
absolutely zero to say about it. Nothing, even though it was it
was new. It was in his book, yeah, about how they tried to
kill what's his name, the old guy and all the rest of it. So
that was, I find that to be fascinating. But listen to this.
Many Venezuelans feel very watched and not safe from the
government. And it is taking a toll this silence on the part of
the opposition, together with this exodus is a sign that the
government is prevailing. And as the government is prevailing to
use your words, do they feel any pressure to make some of the
reforms that are required? This is what's so interesting, under
normal circumstances, any government facing this type of
economic calamity would try to do something to stop it. But
what I believe is happening in Venezuela is that the government
has realized that this economic crisis works to its advantage
because it completely decimate the private economy and it also
decimate civil society and leaves only Want actor standing
and that is the state. So the administration, the Maduro
administration has concluded strangely, that this economic
crisis is politically convenient for them. And so they have no
incentive necessarily to put an immediate end to the economic
crisis. But we have seen some sign right that there's some
cracks within the rank and file of the elites, and perhaps even
within the military. So does that mean that the government
really feels no pressure to try and make life better for every
one in the country, though, one incentive to try to fix this
situation is that the economic environment is unbearable for
almost everyone. So the government is responding is
responding with the classic combination of CO opting some
groups and repressing those that are a bit more uppity, and
racist, a lot of the repression now is being directed not just
at opposition forces, but also sectors of the ruling party that
are beginning to show discontent. There are reports of
about 200 military personnel having been arrested, for
example. And that tells us that the government is trying this
combination of CO opting some groups but also applying some
force inside the movement itself, including the military.
Hmm.
So this is an interesting situation. Uh huh. He's actually
ruining the country. So the government can really put
together a true socialist dream come true. Yeah, we should move.
Well, some people should move. But this is not being covered at
all by the mainstream media. I mean, this is PBS, they did
cover it. So they count, but generally speaking, is not
discussed. Because the Democrats who dominate the scene, they're
pushing the same agenda with some of their candidates, and
they don't want to mess it up by bringing in this kind of
information. No, because it doesn't really sit well. With
with Americans that didn't even think that we could suddenly it
just could happen here. Can happen here? Yeah, it sure can.
So sure can, so let's don't discuss the situation in
Venezuela. And they know what to do. The inflation rate is right
now.
It's like 17 or 18% 1,000,000%. Wow. Okay. So what is the what's
the Venezuelan
peso? Well,
it's I don't know if it's the peso cruzeiro, but I don't know
what it is right now. But it's, it is completely out of control.
They've had to pull all the money and come up with new
money, new domination, costing five zeros. And they changed the
name of it. They did all this stuff. Brazil used to do it to
try to control the situation, but it is.
I hope, I hope they all bought into Bitcoin. That would save
them would have actually,
I think it's illegal there.
Of course it is. This huge issue, but you can stop it is by
dollars. You can't stop Yeah, dollars at this dumpster that's
illegal to do. Well, in the same vein,
we're not hearing about Eastern Germany.
The East German city of Chemnitz in front of its Karl Marx
Memorial several 1000 demonstrators chanting anti
immigration slogans. Police reported seeing Hitler salutes
to. Tensions here are high after a German man was stabbed on
Sunday. A Syrian and an Iraqi man were arrested and a wave of
anti immigration protest took to the streets. That's the border.
Now is the time to remain calm and level headed. Police are
investigating and the prosecuting authorities are
doing their jobs. Cabinets will not allow the perpetrators of
violence and anarchists to run rampant on our streets. We will
enforce the rule of law via police warned masked
demonstrators in the city which is 200 kilometers south of the
capital Berlin that their actions were being filmed.
Flowers have been laid with a 35 year old man was stabbed to
death. The hours after the killing far right groups took to
social media to call for public demonstrations against
immigration skips you have other federal it does exist the right
wing extremist scene which rears its head every once in a while
Deutsche RS there is also a certain mixture of different
groups, for example, football fans. In 2015, Germany gave home
to more than a million migrants, many from the Middle East, a
stance that proved unpopular with many voters. In Chemnitz
counter demonstrators called for calm and tolerance. There are
reports that immigrants have suffered abuse in the city in
the wake of the stabbing. Chancellor Angela Merkel said
Germany would not tolerate vigilante justice. Local
prosecutors said the two suspects
were still being questioned. Yeah, let's not talk
about that. Seems like Pete No, not at all. So nothing to talk
about Trump's not involved. Let's
talk about talking about it here. We have one of our artists
is living in Germany. And he's been corresponding with me
because you want to answer his email. He says it's a lot worse
than anybody over here even imagines. Yeah.
What else did you say? Or what do you say about it?
He says, I sent him I sent him some some some papers written
out at the Hoover Institute, which to discuss the situation.
He says this surface, he says is all shall we are not covering
not us. But the Western media is not covering any of this stuff.
And I started thinking about especially with that report, is
it pot and then also considering the Maduro situation in
Venezuela? Is it possible that Merkel brought all these
immigrants into Germany to jack them up? For the purposes of
getting the
No? Oh, did trying doing a Venezuelan trick? You mean?
Well, not Venezuela, per se, but to try to reignite a because
she's Ramiz Germany. Yes. to reignite some sort of social
movement that will get everybody kicked for to kick these guys
out and be probably kick her out.
Are you like, like it was a it was a it was a it was a sting?
Well, but a trigger a triggering mechanism to get the Germans
riled up to normal you want to about fascism? I mean, this is a
culture that that will go in that direction. Unlike us, we
really don't haven't got the genetic strong structure as a,
as a as a people to do it to become like, you know, to bring
a hit play. Not
yet.
I don't think it's possible. But in Germany, it's built in.
John at the vortech.org. For all you DNA genetically challenged
Germans.
Wow. I don't know. I mean, we do have a lot of German guys. We
have Germans who listen to this show, maybe some of them besides
our Polish artist. Yeah. Can Oh, no.
I he tells me he's been telling me this for years. That is
really bad. I know exactly what you're talking
about? Well, it's not discussed. It's not discussed, I
would like to discuss briefly a couple of OTG things.
What OTG OTG things and
people are very happy with your some, some
are happy. Yeah. And I just want to reiterate what the mission
here is, the mission is to get away from the Pavlovian response
mechanism that is triggered by a smartphone. Now, there's all
kinds of things you need to do on your desktop to not be
tracked. And I'm not talking about the intelligence services,
although you certainly can use encrypted email. I mean, I still
don't understand why politicians don't use encrypted email, I use
it quite regularly. But the mission really is to have a
device that I can take with me it has a modern web browser, you
can do anything you need to do with with a device with a modern
web browsers all you need and then and the phone I have,
that's all they really can do is it's great web browser can do
text messaging, and it can do email. But the idea is that you
want to design your on the road system to be as undesirable as
possible to use this for your, for your health. It forces
focus, it forces consideration when you use it, especially if
you're writing something on the numeric keypad where you got to
hit three times number two for the see. Yeah,
but what it does, that's gotta be the worst.
No, it's not it's very enjoyable because you do not have the
capability to respond to someone quickly. You can't just take
something real quick, you got to you got to think about what
you're doing. This reduces distraction by at least 95%
Except for text message alerts. It reduces tracking by Silicon
Valley by at least 50% but it improves your sanity 100% And
you look around and you'll be able to play little games about
spot the zombie, which you win very quickly because they're
everywhere.
And I have a couple of clips.
Actually, before I get to that we were talking about Microsoft
and if they you know because of course windows 10 tracks you and
if they have a real advertising play then i Boy was I put in my
place. Holy moly. What? Well, I said yeah, um, because maybe
they're just doing it on you know, they just have mass. You
know, they got a lot of real So they're selling ads based upon
some simple demographics. And they have huge audience wrong.
Again, curry. Ah, says who says
multiple? Producers? It's all about Cortana.
Oh, yeah. Cortana is
Jack, it tracks everything, search server registry. They
know exactly who you are. Now you can turn off what Cortana
collects, but you can't really turn it off. So I'm not sure
what it is tracking that because I did look at my Microsoft, you
know, your your data, you can see what they've tracked. And I
have pretty much nothing. This is another one of our producers.
I have a friend who works at Microsoft actually is contracted
by Microsoft and works. As a data engineer edge data
engineer. He says he worked on data collection, coding and
compiling, let me tell you, he thinks Microsoft has the best
monetization data out there hands down. Basically, from what
I understand they collect every possible electrical output on
their devices and are able to establish trends like what games
have to be ejected from the Xbox the most. Oh, wow. What game
you're rejecting? Yeah. So we got our issues with, with
Windows, for sure. And just let you know, a Yahoo is still
unlike what Google claims Yahoo still parses your yahoo email
for advertising a big article in the Wall Street Journal about
it. Usually those those boneheads still do that.
Well, they can get away with it as well. Yeah, I guess when
people just don't get an advertising advantage they get.
What they say is they they look at like business emails. So if
you get or some of the examples here, if you get a confirmation
from a trip, then they say okay, where's the trip going to
they'll look at your, at your trip details and see if they can
make you an offer based upon your travel. That kind of stuff.
You know, real deep learning machine learning real deep
stuff. Jaron Lanier, linear linear net linear, linear. We've
played some things from before. And I know you're like, Yeah.
And I'm like, Yeah, but he was on the Sam Harris podcast, he
let loose a little bit about what he has seen with his own
two eyes when it comes to tracking from the tech tyranny.
I've been
present a couple of times when the various tech companies
present themselves to the big advertising conglomerates, in
the annual negotiation of fees, which is this amazing, hidden
ritual that I wish more people could see. And when you'll see
the representatives from companies like Facebook and
Google, present themselves, they're so overreaching and
creepy, and they, they probably are exaggerating, but they'll
talk about being able to just measure your soul. I mean, it'll
just be like, Oh, we're measuring the movement of your
phone, which can tell us how you're walking. And then from
that we can derive your mood and what whether you're having a
period if you're a woman, all kinds of stuff we're following
where you go, we're following all the stuff we're following
your voice tone, when you do voice stuff, we're following
your facial expression, if we have a camera on you, we're
measuring all the stuff we know all these things about your
health that you'll never know we know all these things about your
mood about your mental state about your state of attention.
And we offer all of this amazing Encyclopedia of spying on you.
To you are our true customer if only you'll give us more money
so you can have your peace of controlling the world. You know,
it's it's just such a weird thing and But at any rate, the
attitude is get as much as he can and be as creepy about it as
possible. When you're trying to earn money from your true
customers. I think it is helpful because it's mostly true you are
the product. It's not exactly you what it is, is your
demonstrated change in behavior from what it otherwise would
have been as the product so it's your loss of free will is the
product is a more precise way of putting it
excellent. If you're on your periods will cry. I don't think
it's bullcrap. But AWS guy I you know what? I think they know a
lot more than we realize the accelerometers in these phones.
You can derive a lot from that. They know if you're reading in
bed. There's all kinds of stuff like this. You shouldn't be on
your smartphone. You shouldn't have your smartphone in the
bedroom at all really.
But I've Why would he say that he
do you think he's just making that up?
No, I don't think he's making it up. I think what he's what he I
think he's got most of it right. Except what is the point that's
being missed here is that this is just nonsense used as a sales
pitch to get more CPM from dumb advertisers who are too stupid
to even know that internet advertising doesn't hardly work
any better. Then print advertising. This is just an
hour. He is like the advertiser he and he keeps saying the true
customer, true customer what he means by that as the
advertisers. Yeah. And so and so so they have these unbelievable
sales pitches that go off the deep end and he's are lapping it
up. And just as though like I say it like these dumb sales
buyers, the buyers from these advertising companies that are
buying ads. Oh, wow, look at that. Look at all the stuff they
can do. They can't do any of it is just a sales pitch to sell as
at a higher price.
I think they do have some crazy world get a clue. But I think
they do have some capabilities. None. Well, DC girl says is not
a problem. Because you yourself
go on and on about, Hey, I just bought this product. Why are
they advertising it? You'll be sure over and over?
Sure. Sure.
I don't like any of it, that's all.
And you yourself are the ones who said that internet
advertising is bogus, and bad and crummy.
It's not just about advertising. John, it's about a lot of
things. It's it's it has to do with your behaviors. And that's
not just an ad that shows up this data is important. Here's
something that changed by the way, which I think is a huge
story. But it's the only way or only place it found that was on
CNBC, and it ties into this. There's been a change made in
how your FICO score is calculated and everybody's
should be going up. And this relates directly to the kinds of
things that these companies are doing in profiling you. And now
we're giving you you Yes, you slave. We're giving you a new
lease on life, because we're doing things for your credit
score can go up and well, you know what the obvious conclusion
will be once that happens? Well, we all have to do. We all have
to get some more debts. Good news
for millions of consumers. The three major credit bureaus,
Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion got together and
said, We have to make some changes and revamp our scoring
system here, we need to look at what we're including on the
reports. And in the score. And collections was the big thing
that they looked at, they actually took out some of the
main collections that can really trip people up, you wouldn't
believe it, library fines, really not your credit score,
parking and traffic tickets. And then this is the bill the big
one medical debt. And what they decided was these are not really
factors that contribute to whether your credit worthy or
not medical debt being the biggest one of those. And so if
you have medical debt that's in collections, but it's already
being paid by insurance, or it started to be paid by insurance,
that's not going to count at all right, then they won't even have
medical debt on there until at least 180 days, because it takes
so long to deal with the insurance sometimes. What's the
deal, though, with the library fines and the traffic tickets, I
don't want to I don't want to admit it. Some people in my
household have known this to happen. But it can happen that
if you don't pay a library fine in the past and overdue book
could go into collections. And that could hurt your credit
score for your $2 that you owe on that late book that you were
1409 I won't say I won't say. So how would I know if my credit
score has been impacted. If I have a better score now? Well,
you can know by checking out your credit score, and you can
do it for free a number of places you can go on. So
now they moved from the story into the pitch realigned to
Credit
Karma or credit sesame or nerd wallet. But you can also open
your bank statement, American Express Chase, Wells Fargo
discovered many, many, many banks now getting a statement
that they sent every statement. So you can look back and see
what it was a couple months ago and what it is today, and pay
attention to whether it's gone up or down if it's gone up.
That's great news because you get a lower rate, credit card,
and that could have significant impact and significant savings.
Money. For instance, if you had like $10,000 in debt, credit
card debt, and you had a 25% interest rate, you're paying
$2,500 over the course of the year and interest charges if
it's 18% even pay off a penny Exactly. So 18% interest rate
it's $1,800 in charge what a deal. So what's your score is
makes a really big difference. Alright, if I see my score, what
does that tell me? I may not know how to kind of map that
Right? Right. So you're looking at a range between 308 50 If
it's eight I
find this disturbing to listen to now they're gonna tell us
what this is all about social ranking, ultimately, it's all
going to come together and their their
message Chinese are more honest about it. That's
true, better, you're exceptional, you're awesome,
you're gonna get credit for whatever you want pretty much
everything between 740 and 799. Also very, very good. And you're
probably going to get the lower loan rates that are available.
If you're between 670 and 739. That's good. You're an
acceptable borrower below that is where problems arise. 650 is
where you go, some will say some will say 650 Some will say 660.
You know, go for the higher end to make sure that your victory
gonna be okay. But also know this, you've heard different
numbers because there's not just one credit score, depending on
if you're getting an auto loan or a mortgage or credit card
company, they're all going to look at perhaps in different
numbers. So these are general ranges from Experian and FICO
that you should be looking if I'm looking at a number, how do
I know if it's the same one that those companies are looking at?
Well, you can ask them which one they're looking at, are they
which which credit coat they're referring to, in terms of
getting your score to find out but just know, generally
speaking, you want to have a score that's in the upper six
hundreds if you could at least 700 You're gonna be golden. If
you're in the 500 you have some work to do you really want to
work on your credit, you
really want to work on it worth a
prelude to the market crash? Who Yeah, it was play a clip that
was prelude to the market crash. I
think I think you're right. I think this is a huge story they
need to have they need to make more we need to make more money.
So we need more credit, right? Isn't that how it works? Pretty
much. So we need to print more. So people need to go into
debt boy, when in debt and you kind of suck, you know, toughen
up the Bankruptcy Law. So you can't declare bankruptcy when
things don't count? Yes, like student loans, for example,
which shouldn't be covered now. They're not credit card bills, I
think or one of them together. It's at the point now where the
bankruptcy laws have been so jiggered with that. They're just
ridiculous.
Yeah. Well, it's all it's all coming together. But you're
right, China's at least honest about it. Here we have this,
this craze about you know, you gotta have oh, yeah, you need
some work. You're not doing well. You only got 500 This is
not good. You're new. You're not really a participant in society.
And the joke of it, of course, is those really super high
numbers. If you're somebody who is pays everything in cash or
always on time, you never missed a payment in your life. And
everything you do is without credit cards, and you're genuine
live in a nice place and you got brand new cars that you paid for
on cat with cash. You got no credit, you got a credit score
of two.
Yeah, that was me. Yeah, that was you.
I had to start building my credit backup.
I need to do more work. Trust me.
I need to work harder on it. Alright, last clip for me is sad
story. As sad as the unintended consequences of technology are
overlooked in this case. Well, this is going to affect I think
millions of people in the United States of America, and it has to
do with old school technology.
shortwave listeners might recognize this signature ID
National Institute of Standards and Technology time this is
radio station WWE Fort Collins, Colorado,
WWE is the oldest continuously operating radio station in the
United States. It's been on the air since 1920. It signal
provides a frequency standard for receivers. The timestamp is
regulated by an atomic clock. But the 2019 budget proposal for
NIS T would close WWE, WWE V H in Hawaii, and WWE VB, which
syncs up the time for about 50 million radio controlled clocks,
wristwatches and appliances now we spoke with the President of
lacrosse technologies. They make a lot of these radio controlled
clocks that are found in schools and factory floors and homes. He
says that he thinks Congress would never approve this cut
because there are so many billions of devices does that
reassure you?
That's nice to hear someone in industry saying that but right
now as the budget says it does cut out all of the WWE v time
stations. So if it goes through as proposed right now, it will
be cut in 2019.
How about that?
Never thought that would happen?
And it won't.
Everybody's gonna bitch about it. Me included. Yeah,
I'm sure I'm sure I have some devices here that depend on the
on 10 kilohertz
T clock. Yeah, sure. Sure. It sends out a signal. It's great
to just put the clock up and then you look, it's got blinking
12. And then 10 minutes later, it's got the exact time and
date. I know
before the internet, it was like magic.
Well, I have one last clip then. Okay. Which will be this is just
a clip. This is a clip kind of in line with most of my clips
today, which is another example of lousy reporting by the
mainstream media. And it's kind of brought up in the story by
you know, this is the Good Morning America shows kind of
brought up in the story. And when they close the story,
somebody brings up the point it's like are you gonna talk can
you give it Did you do any reporting at all or is this just
some shallow story? This is apparently in the in the US Open
some French tennis player, yet she can miss out after one of
these time breaks and she notices that she's got her
blouse on backwards. I hate it when this happens. So she pulls
it off and turns Get around it puts it back on in the process
of pulling it off as you can see your sports bra underneath Oh,
and and of course these guys are walking around naked but this
woman was dead. They called her and they gave her a penalty. And
this is the story is US Open women's switches on Good Morning
America
open outraged friends player punished for flipping her shirt
around on the court. While the men face no penalty for changing
their shirts in the heat. ABC Adrienne Bankert is here and
Adrienne people said this is a serious double standard. Yeah,
I can see the studio space right now. I'm looking at you and then
looking at the whole team here.
I had nothing to do with it.
It was hot outside for just regular folk. But just imagine
playing on our Arthur Ashe Stadium in this kind of heat.
Day two of the open five players forced to withdraw LSA Cornette
was not one of them, she bravely soldiered on returning to the
court after a 10 minute heat break. Then she did something a
lot of guys have been doing all day she quickly changed her
shirt on the court away from cameras she turned away from the
cameras to do that. The reason for the court change in the
locker room she put her shirt on backwards, and she noticed she
got a code violation for unsportsmanlike conduct for
changing her shirt. Turns out men are allowed to do that.
Women cannot reaction on Twitter very swift Sharon Souter
responding to this topless picture Andy Murray's mom posted
of her son with Where's his code violation? Hashtag LSA cornet
Maria's mom leader tweeting about the unfairness of the sex
disparity, the same day cornet was getting a code violation
check out Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic, not a care in
the world. They took their shirts off Alice Warren speaking
for many when she tweeted out the whole situation is not fair.
Not right. Tell your daughters. Now I do have to say this. And
again, I'm just making sure that I confirm all this correctly.
The USDA has an extreme heat policy for women where they can
take a 10 minute break. That's what I was a was reportedly
doing she took a break to cool off men up until now did not
have that same rule. So they wouldn't leave the court and
that explains why
you have your shirt on backwards and maybe when you're planning
it's restrictive in some way but I don't see the big deal with
trouble
the same way and I think obviously they're thinking
what's the big deal? She you know, she had a sports bra on
she's a compilation a big deal. Do you know?
I mean, from the look on her face it was? Yeah, she didn't
appreciate it. She wouldn't say cornet. I don't know she won the
match. Honestly, I was more concerned about the shirt thing.
This is not
post racial. This is stupid.
It's not post racial.
And of course, somebody Michael Strahan at the end, who I don't
even know why he's on the shows. says that she went to a match
and then everyone laughs AH HA HA HA HA HA they go to next
story. They didn't even do enough work to determine whether
this girl won or lost the match. And maybe there's some
connection between the code violation and maybe it ruined
her game. Who knows?
Did you look it up?
Of course. She lost the match.
And that's why you listen to the no agenda show. The more you
