I can't with authority answer that question. Adam curry, John
C. Dvorak.
It's Sunday, February 2 2014. Time for your gizmo nation media
assassination episode 588. This is no agenda, predicting large
sporting events since 1906. from FEMA Region six here in the
traverse high tide out in Austin, Texas in the morning,
everybody. I'm Adam curry,
and from Northern Silicon Valley where it's finally raining and
it's actually raining. I'm John C. Dvorak. Greg Levin, Buzzkill.
You know, I have received so many emails about the rain
stick. Let's do it again. But the drawback is raining in
Austin now to what? It hadn't rained for months in California,
we shake these damn rain sticks. You know? I have a question
about that. How many people because this kind of goes along
with with Karma as well. I'm getting it with a large amount
of people, maybe just people who, when they request karma
where it doesn't work? They just don't tell us about it. Oh, they
tell us? Not often.
I mean, do we? I can count. On one hand, the amount of times
someone has requested karma and it didn't work out. Yeah. Well,
it
does happen though.
But this rainstick thing is, is a little scary. And so the
question is how many people is this? This is the the weird
thing.
And you know, by the way, do you know who sent us? These rain
sticks?
Yes. The producer from Utah?
Share it? Sure. Yeah. You think she's you think she's actually
in Utah?
I received them from her when we were in Utah.
You sure that was her?
Well, who knows? Utah can be weird. Anyway, so of course,
because we don't have advertisements, so we don't have
to have some kind of rating, or a GRP or a cume or a share. We
don't need, we don't need to prove to any advertisers
screw arbitrage.
Yeah. Which is, by the way, is now folded into Nielsen. So we
don't need to say, Oh, we have x amount of people listening. And
last night, Miss Mickey and I were at a benefit thing here in
Austin. And you know, and of course, what do you do? And
then, you know, Mickey's an artist, and what do you do? And,
and I helped me I like, I just, I'm so tired of telling if they
don't know who I am, because they're too young, usually. And
I just make something up. But when they finally find out about
the podcast, so how many people listen to the podcast? I don't
you know, I really don't know. And it's not a good answer. For
most people, the 10 million people makes it sound like this
hot woman has got some weird guys sitting in the closet with
a microphone. She know what she's married to. But But how do
we have any idea? How many do you can you guesstimate because
somehow the collective thought I believe, when we do you know,
it's like when you pray to God, I don't think that really works
that well, because you're throwing your thing into the air
and some throw that into the mix. As a lot of messages going
into it tomorrow. I'm busy right now. I guess I got Syria to deal
with. And but you know, when it's the podcast, and I think
that somehow electronically, it comes into your head, and then
maybe you're thinking about it, and maybe somehow that has some
effect. But what do you think, is it 10,000 20,000?
Now, it's way beyond that, beyond this based on the kind of
numbers we get and responses and people that actually sign up for
the mailing list, which is always going to be about the
mailing list will be I'm guessing around 10%, five to 10%
of the total? Because that's all you know, nobody else. Just
listen. They don't donate, they don't do anything. You basically
gave me no answer other than 100,000 I'm guessing about
100,200 50,000. That that's a moderate number. And that's also
based on the number of people out of the blue that say in the
morning to you on the streets of any city.
Yeah, but that's not really fair. I mean, when I'm in Austin
is just continuous. I had a guy like almost fall off, and I
almost fell off his bike the other day in the morning.
100 150,000 That's probably about right.
That's my guess. And I think it's I think it's about a valid
number based on the kind of I mean, if you take every all the
variables, that's about what it sounds like, I'd like to be
bigger. That's where we are. I mean, it's possible we have it
but that means that if we're bigger than that, that means
that people are not contributing very much right. It would
actually be bad if we if we leave it there. When people
don't you know the number of people that actually contribute
to the show, support the show and produce the show are really
just super minorities.
Yeah. Okay, well, for some reason this rainstick thing
seems to work. You have to admit that's kind of freaky. Don't do
too much. Then you have too much
water abused the rain stick.
I think so. Did you not use the way you took the course? You
know, you know, we're
licenced licenced rainstick operators operators operate.
We have not tweeted, says this is what happens when you when
you have too much funds, operators, we are arranged, this
is where we are. We're rainstick. We are licenced range
anymore.
What these people generally don't think of me they do the
dance and pray for rain and all the rest of it. But the rain
stick is an old proven way.
And what's funny is kids today still make rain sticks at
school. And it's well if they have any arts and music. And
it's and it's made as a musical instrument and not as an
instrument of weather modification. Right, which is
the way it should be taught.
Yeah, water witching. And if people make a lot of fun about
it, but those guys that actually do that, use that technique and
find water all the time. Well, I
think there's something to it and regardless of whether you
want to believe it or not, and I think you're kind of on board.
It's working. How many months and it didn't rain for months
and then for to two shows nor in a row we shake the rain sick and
it's raining in California and in Austin.
Yeah. It's crazy need the rain here. And the weird thing about
this particular storm, which was not predicted until last night
when it's all of a sudden showed up on the radar as like almost
like a cloud Buster phenomenon. Wilhelm Reich just showed up off
the coast over by earache and then came down here and blasted
us it was nice rainstorm last night still raining as we
started
good. But that's only Northern California and I think Southern
California still needs
help don't have a range sticker.
That's their their bad their loss. Today, of course in the
United States, for those of you listening on the podcast, you
probably you're you probably already know the outcome. And so
now you just want to hear what are they going to predict, with
many large sporting events which were pretty convinced most of
the big ones are rigged. Certainly World Cup soccer, all
of soccer seems to be rigged these days. If you look at the
FIFA lawsuits, basketball seems to be pretty rigged. Baseball.
We've never really done anything with baseball have we?
I don't know how easy it is. Baseball has been rigged in the
past, but it's harder. It's a hard game to rig because it's
pretty. It's just a complex game to rig Yeah. Unless you have a
you know some. I mean, I remember during a World Series
when the umpire was calling strikes and balls
yeah, that you got it. You got to rig the the umpire though
that's a little harder. Yeah. So the Super Bowl and of course,
football American football is it's a beautiful game. It's
really been tailored for television. I'd say it suits the
television system perfectly. It is saying that the best produced
television ever, which is why it is the game that I watch. And
it's Nia Yeah, well I watch for the commercial. I really watch
for the game I am sometimes blown away by the production
values it particularly in HD it's just incredibly beautiful.
Everything's beautiful. The you know the uniforms are beautiful.
The the men's butts are tight is everything's great.
The cheerleaders are pretty cheerleaders are rockin.
Just everything is good. It's tight. And we did today we have
Bruno Mars performing the halftime they got some opera
singer doing the the national anthem.
Just now that's new, but it's a tribute to the no agenda show.
So we have been pretty good, I think dead on just about every
single time with predicting the winner based upon socio economic
issues in the in the team's place of origin. Do I say am I
saying that correctly?
That's pretty close. Yeah. Again, better. And I've
had this lurking feeling that it's good that Seattle. So we
have the Denver Broncos and the Seattle Seahawks playing. And
I've had this feeling deep in the pit of my stomach for two
days. Two weeks now about that. It's everything points to the
Broncos because oh man, where do we start with? With the flooding
in Colorado with the shootings in Colorado? Of course, the weed
thing is interesting. And so I've been looking for a way to
fit Seattle winning into our model for a while.
And let's call it shoehorning. Yeah, maybe
Maybe the fact that this is the the the was it the wheat bowl or
what are they calling it because both but bowl Roach bowl. So at
first this was the path that was on first and then I got steered
into a different direction listen to this table. We'll call
it the stoner bowl. Yeah, the owner bowl. Favourite, the super
newbie bowl. Super Dubreuil is Fox. Know This is CNN with the
cute girl. Oh, what's her name? I think she's a doctor or
something very cute. Very, very, very funny segment this
Superbowl Sunday the pot punting will be in full effect as teams
from the first two states to legalise recreational marijuana
Washington and Colorado face off against each other. On Sunday.
It is the Seattle Seahawks versus the Denver Broncos and
the average Super Bowl party could get a lot more interesting
think about a bigger laughs better appetites and also more
conversations about trying to sync the halftime show with the
Dark Side of the Moon. In Colorado marijuana dispensaries
are selling blue and orange Bronco themed bongs and
marijuana strains including Orange Crush, don't you love
American ingenuity? The American entrepreneur is unparalleled
anywhere in the world ladies and gentlemen. And in Washington
even though pot is not technically legal, you know,
this is where I was thinking is that true? Is that not
technically legal in Washington? No,
I thought it was legal at all it's been legalised
why which is recreational pot now legalise it only
recreational pot has Why would she say that?
I think she's mistaken the the fact that the state itself has
not put into play any rules or regulations about it so
essentially so de facto it's not leave can't really buy
illegally. Okay,
we'll see that well that so I was thinking well, what we could
After this she actually she brought on a former tight end
for the Broncos and he went into this whole rap about how so many
football players and of course he was referring to the Broncos
use marijuana for pain relief. And like well, okay, so this
would be a way to say you know, the the Broncos lost because
they were too stoned. And because you know, they have the
the legal stuff and you
can you are really got something on here today. We'll talk about
stone.
Now there are a couple of people trying to help me out with the
with the
Broncos players aren't a bunch of stones themselves, so they
won't be to stone to win. The second thing is a lot of players
across the league. Apparently this has been documented quite a
bit in some of these sports shows. Especially Brian Gamble's
Real Sports, he's the one who really rolled out a special on
it. They're all using it because these other guys are taking
these addictive, horrible morphine directly and they find
that smoking dope is
better is better. Well, that would that was that was kind of
the the point of that of that item. They also producers around
the world are trying to help me figure it out if if somehow my
hunch is right, and see I got a email from John Tucker. He says,
of course, on the 31st of January, we have the Chinese New
Year started with the year of the horse. That would of
course, I got up. I was listening to Van cat. And
according to the French is that and I never heard this before
around here. And I you know we have a huge Chinese population.
They call it the the year of the wooden horse. Hmm. I found that
peculiar. I have a clip of it. But the woman says that this
Chinese New Year, the year of the wooden horse,
I don't see it on your list.
That's probably not I probably didn't clip
it. Well, of course, if it's a horse, then you'd have to think
Broncos would would be the way to go obviously. All right. But
producer,
another nail in your coffin.
Producer Ricky Lee came in, I think with a very good fit for
the model. The so of course, we have one huge anti model. You
mean no one has to put Seattle into the model for the win. Oh,
of course, we have a huge company in Seattle, which is
Boeing. And Boeing is very, very important to the United States
in general. But they've they've there have was at a certain
point there was even talk of Boeing leaving
Seattle, actually in Everett with the headquarters in
Chicago. Yeah, I
know. I know. I know. That's and that's pointed out but the work
is done in Seattle. And they had a huge contract dispute with the
machinists. And they barely, I think was like a 50.5 or 51% of
the vote. They Uh, they passed this contract. But the
machinists are still all pissed. And there, there's just all
kinds of the anger roaming around. And I'm thinking to in
order to smooth that over, so we can continue to make, you know,
kick ass warplanes, because it's not really about, you know, just
commercial planes, that that would be a reason to make to
distract everybody. Maybe we can't have Seattle getting more
depressed, that's for sure. Because it's 10s of 1000s of
jobs. And if that feel it feels better than any other thing from
Denver, quite honestly. It's a real socio economic issue.
This has never been in play in any of the for the last seven
years, we've been doing the show this would this model that you
create this labour dispute? What do you mean? Does this make them
feel better?
Yeah, this is what it's always been about. What are you talking
about? It's always been about making people feel better.
It's always about making people feel but not because they're in
a union being beat up or there's or the country's in desperate
straits or something like that now? No. Okay. Just stick with
this idea. And we'll see what happens. We'll know later today.
And also they have they they have the 12 man 747. Have you
seen it?
It's Paul Allen. You know,
where you got money? Isn't it beautiful? The things you can
do? Yeah, hey, let me rent one of those planes. I'll paint it
cost millions of dollars to paint a plane that big.
And also I think just because it's Paul Allen, I think just so
the elites
also make Paul Allen a happy guy did
the least depress the elites also notice, just need to show
everybody who's boss.
Really, that that would change the model, but I think that you
might be onto something with that.
Just watch what I can do. Watch. I can paint a 747 and fly it
around with nobody in it but me. And screw you peons.
Yes, we're gonna win this game by some form of corruption.
You'll never understand
power outage, my favourite
or outage? I got a report from the Super Bowl, which I thought
was kind of, I find it actually kind of, I wouldn't go to the
game after hearing this report.
I think I have a similar of Olympics and Sophie. I know
security has always been a top concern with my business. That
was your business. What is it the guy from Blackwater? Who is
this?
guy that you're? That's Giuliani
Yeah. The guy from Blackwater. Exactly. Is the danger lessened
after 911 or the danger is always gonna be there right. The
danger is worse and it's the unexpected it's worse Why would
he speak for Harvard if he's trucker? Like the short version?
Was that was weird when it's like always no, no, no, no, no.
Something's weird with his with something's going on with his
mouth. The one off it's the one you don't think of like the
Boston Marathon. Look, nobody can give 100% guarantee. This is
pretty close to it. This and in New Jersey, the combination the
security they've been working on this for 345 years Kelly now
Bratton all the people in New Jersey chris Christie.
Snipers in the studio in
the state in the studio. See that done on your head?
Giuliani? A lot of them believe me. I know we had you know more
or less. I got a better security report than that man.
Before you cut mine off these places crawling was snipers. You
would you go to a football game with a lot and it was a lot of
them. Yeah. It makes you feel good. is crawling with snipers.
You just don't think that's even interesting.
Don't ya know? It's very interesting. Don't make a sudden
nine I think is dangerous. I think you need to have if you
don't if you snipers
going to do. Let's hold on a second. Let's say you set off a
bomb. Yeah. Snipers gonna do you? Well, I mean, no, the bomb
has just blown up and you're not even in the stadium by now. You
really
don't understand how it works. Do you? Well, no, no.
What worse a bunch of snipers? No. All right, I'm
gonna jump around. I wasn't going to use this clip right
now. But you missed her. Oh, I got the sniper clip. I'm gonna
have to pull it out. Stand back. As we have the Prime Minister of
the United Kingdom who had to become come before some
congressional session Parliament thingy where they all sit in
like the school desks. That's guys don't know how to do
theatre. So they sit in a little semi circle and they question
the prime minister. And here he is explaining exactly why you at
least need to have the thought of having snipers or something
around. But I'm absolutely convinced that proper rules for
communications data is essential and I don't think we got across
to people yet the absolute basics of this which is you
know, in most of the serious crimes and through a child
abductions comes data who called who and when? And where was the
telephone at the time, not the content of the call. The
communications data is absolutely vital. And I think we
need the police chief's investigators and others and the
politicians explaining what this is about and what I love
watching as I probably should stop telling people, you know,
crime dramas on the television, there's hardly a crime drama
where crime is solved without using the data of a mobile
communications device. And that's not about the content if
there you go, he knows how it works. People see stuff on
television and they think that that's how it really works.
Well, apparently he's one of them.
Yes. But that's the whole point. Of course snipers are
ridiculous. Because you know you're not going to well maybe
if you see the guy and he's carrying a bag that says bomb on
it you know the ones
you got my bags ready to go? Where's the bomb? Is God bomb
written on it? You idiot. Okay, I got it.
Perhaps he's carrying a picture like the one Netanyahu Prime
Minister of Israel showed at the United Nations with the actual
drawing of the bomb with the fuse lit. Yeah, if you're
running if you're walking around the stadium, MetLife Stadium
with that? Yeah, you might get sniped. I think they need to I'm
happy with my clip. Clip was fine. John, I'm just I'm happy
that mine put a rating on it
and a massive security operation is underway this morning in and
around New York City. 10s of 1000s of police and other
officials are working to protect Super Bowl 48 The department
and by the way, they're just protecting this franchise.
They're not protecting you, you stupid shit.
That's actually that's was That's true. They are protected
this
attack they're protecting the franchise okay. We can't ruin
the franchise.
48 The Department of Homeland Security is declaring Sunday's
game in New Jersey a level one national security event.
We number one, we made it to level one. I wonder if is level
one the top you can get is that like the highest rating you can
get it has to be or is that just let's check the book or is that
a star? Is it a star rating? Star? I got 20 More seconds on
the clip you check the book of knowledge.
Level one security what I'd say
no, no, it's a level one national security event.
Level one people
are expected to take part in Super Bowl related activities on
Sunday like that. 4000 security officers will be at MetLife
Stadium military fighter jets to respond to any attack
helicopters will patrol the sky above the city and an extra 200
surveillance cameras are watching Times Square where
there are plenty of Super Bowl events.
U S A U S A U S A be figured out I think they're just making it
up I've never even
telling you I'm I think you might be right.
It is a level one national security event. I don't know
what that I mean, I'm
not finding it is in the literature where as it should
show up. I see it quoted. I see people saying it. Hmm. But I
don't see any evidence that is an actual true designation.
Here's the CBS New York report.
There's a lot of interesting stuff when you when you really
look into the Super Bowl. A lot of people may not know that all
of professional football the league is it's all nonprofit.
It's all a charity. They don't pay any taxes. People you know
this right, John?
No, I did whatever you're gonna say I don't know.
Well, you didn't know this. Oh, as a 501 Seems like a hoax. No.
Ah, go to Snopes Bish as a 501 C six Corp.
And it's dude not bitch, dude.
Well, you must not have watched a lot of Breaking Bad otherwise
you would know better. It is yeah. All all professional
football is tax exempt. I can't believe you didn't know this.
I'm fine with it. You go on with your you're fine with it. Well,
I'm fine with not knowing this just talk. I'm waiting.
Really? Oh, I was hoping you would respond. I'm responding by
listening. That's the statement it's tax exempt. While we are
cutting farm subsidies in the manner of $6 billion for food
stamps. There's this guy's making $29 million a year in a
tax exempt charity known as the franchise.
Doesn't sound right I'm gonna have to look into this. Oh. By
the way, I'm while I was still looking for this level one bowl
card up, I'm not seeing at level one national security event
anywhere in the government databases. They just made this
up.
The last time the NFL paid taxes was 1966. When law you're
reading
this from
an article and we say it's, it's in my opinion, this is credo
doesn't doesn't really matter. And it's, you know, I've known
this I just never been wasn't super bold times and I figured
to bring it up. 1966 When lobbyists convinced Congress to
pass an obscure provision that expanded the definition of 501 C
six, not for profit organisations, in the Internal
Revenue Code to include professional football leagues.
Yeah. This is pretty outrageous. It's outrageous, we'll go. But
what I find even more outrageous is we spend this of course,
you're seeing the stories everywhere, the countless
millions, maybe 10s, or hundreds of millions of dollars, with the
Department of Homeland Security, and the Customs and Border
Protection dudes add for counterfeit NFL merchandise. So
not only do they not pay into the into the government, any of
the billions of dollars that are made, but we actually take our
resources to go and hunt down fake T shirts.
So the taxpayer is getting what you're saying you're saying
these, these these douchebags these elites that own these T
you're catching on? Yeah, aren't paying anything into the coffers
of that helped pave the roads and do the things that are
necessary because for example, you need to pave the roads to
the stadiums. And the taxpayers, by the way, build most of the
stadiums. These guys take the money and then demand that we go
even further and become a police force. Yes. protect their
trademarks, which shouldn't even be should be public domain, it
seems to me Thank you. Now, unlike I'm appalled,
I'm not I'm not on the other hand, I can see what the
Superbowl does, I can see all the commerce and I can see how
there's a lot of money that flows around and there's nothing
there's all good that comes from it. But but but I think at this
point in time, with all the money that's being made, it
wouldn't be a huge issue for them to kick in some extra
dough, especially when we're talking about
well, let me get let me give you the right phrase to pay their
fair share.
Oh, yes. Well, this is all about income inequality. John. So
while we're at it, Mr. President, and Mr. And Mrs.
Congress, while we're talking about income inequality, why
don't we start with the football leagues kicking in some dough?
They gotta be doing a billion each.
Can I mention something here that would kind of resolve this
instantly
wealth tax year comes as you get everybody psychic drink
because the football franchises have a net value because they're
traded like stocks people will buy a franchise and sell to
somebody else. They have a net value and they tend to be owned
by a group of shareholders or sometimes one individual in the
case of the Dallas Cowboys, I believe it would all be resolved
by a wealth tax a wealth tax just boom there's your tax and
isn't and
by the way, while we're at it, I'm pretty sure we can do
exactly the same for the IOC and all the regional Olympic
Committees I'm pretty sure those douchebags are tax exempt as
well. Oh, yeah, that's okay. Yeah,
they probably perfected the idea
but no instead slaves like us will not like us but we'll pay
hundreds if not 1000s of dollars for a ticket
we're not doing that league I'm surprised go to a Super Bowl
once the ticket was $100 and it was hi
I'm surprised you didn't know that though. John that
no I well you can be surprised all you want there's I'm gonna
I'm gonna tell bound to break something to this to the
listeners right now. I don't think we're ready for
everything. I really don't you think about football you'd like
to pretend I do but I don't
and you again you get away with it which is why it's so
surprising.
I'm shocked myself
All right, here we go. Apparently this is a FEMA
rating. Thank you very much freedom northwest to email this.
Here the designators incident complexity. Type one does this
is as type not level So Marty suspicious, but let's just say
someone messed up and it's type one is that level one. Everyone
said level. This type of incident is the most complex
record. This is from FEMA, requiring national resources for
safe and effective management and operation When all Command
and General Staff positions are filled up, what does that mean?
Operations personnel often exceed 500 per operational
period and total personnel usually exceed 1000. Yet we're,
we're on board with that. Branches need to be established.
Definitely a written incident plan action plan is required.
I'm sure we have that. The agency administrator will have
briefings. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Let me see what five is if that's
tougher. Now the incident can be handled with one or two single
resources with up to six personnel now. One is the one is
the top we are we are we're number one.
If somebody was really credit, they make it levels zero who it
could still happen. No, there's somebody put this this is like
probably taken from the theme idea. It's taken from the member
the old the yellow, red alert, green. Yeah. Orange, orange,
orange security level orange threat level warnings of course.
threat levels. Yeah, same thing. Yeah. Yes. This
is from Yes. From the same playbook is what your Since it's
a play. It's
somebody Yeah, but somebody just threw it in there. I would like
to find some documentation that this specific thing level one
national security event.
Yeah, that that is what we have not found.
And we won't because it's bullcrap.
Makes for a good story.
Anyway, all right on let's we get dropped on game is gonna be
played later today. People can watch and watch the ads, and we
can watch the deconstruction of the ads over the next two or
three days. Oh, well, most successful
Wait, wait. Because we're gonna Of course, thank our of our
executive producers for the show, which is how we do it. Now
when you have other models in broadcasting, such as the public
broadcast system, which is Public Television, this was
Sesame Street came from. And this is where we have the PBS
news hour and the McLaren stuff and then Gwen Eiffel and
everyone's all proper. They have a commercials every 15 minutes.
Then we have our national treasure and PR National Public
Radio. And they of course, need to get some of that native
advertising in cars. It's what all the advertisers want these
days native advertising, and they know how to do it.
Making a turn here. Despite all the controversy around football
right now, it is still the most watched sport in the US. Which
means you might be what that
by the way is not true. NASCAR is the most watched sport but
that aside
one of the millions of people who plan to catch a playoff game
this weekend. But if you live on the east coast and are hoping to
dig into some chilli con queso or maybe some mac and cheese,
you might run into a problem. There's a Velveeta shortage. How
can this be you ask and what does it mean? Well, here to tell
us more about what Velveeta means to us as Adrienne Miller.
He's author of soul food, the surprising story of an American
cuisine one plate at a time.
Now I get to give you a little bit of a backstory to this
because this Ville this so called Velveeta shortage, this
started in advertiser week. This is where the story was launched
three weeks ago, I didn't really get the play, but I guess the
buy wasn't in yet, or whatever they hadn't quite done, done the
deal. And listen to how serious they're really talking to me.
They may be tongue in cheek because, of course, if you're a
serious journalist, you don't actually you want your
colleagues to know that you you kind of know what's going on.
But for the casual listener, it's a story.
Thanks so much for joining us. Once again. Thank you for having
me on the show to discuss this extremely important topic. Are
you in mourning? The giveaway? Yeah, you're very upset. Well,
you're on the west coast. So this might not be affecting you.
But ya know, so far I checked this grocery stores were stocked
with Velveeta so much like we did in the seven.
Okay, so right. And so he's saying, We got Velveeta out
here, but she's going to give us the journalistic source. That is
the nucleus of this story on your National Public Radio,
which some people actually send their money to, for this kind of
quality reporting.
As a public service we're willing to provide. You know, we
provided Coors beer back then. So you know, we've provided we
can provide some Velveeta you're willing to share the Velveeta
will craft which makes Velveeta does confirm and it's Tumblr
page that obviously is a shortage.
So the source for this story is the actual manufacturer ie
advertiser who confirmed on their Tumblr page
okay, I know it's early in the game there's probably some great
stuff coming up. You haven't gotten this for a while. I think
it is clip you slaves get back into the mac and cheese.
Macaroni and Cheese shattered melted together mac and
cheese mac and cheese mac and cheese. Mac and cheese like mac
and cheese by iron Rand. There you go. Isn't it unbelievable?
The level they were stoop to.
We've confirmed the story
from the advertiser themselves serve these people. Ah,
okay in your licence, what do
you think that's worth? To do a native ad story like that for?
For Velveeta, that's gotta be worth some dough.
If it was an NPR national, is probably worth let's see, the
advertising rate would be for a four minute story shot is I
would say 50 to $150,000. A four minute story on the foreign
minister. Yeah, I'd say at least 100 grand. Well, anyway, that's
why you know, they are good PR agencies if they can pull off
something like that, which is obviously came from a PR agency.
Whoever's running crafts agency, one of the
big that's got to be BBDO or some one of those guys as well.
They're all part of the same group three groups.
Tonight. 2222 groups.
Now there's publicists?
No, no, they merge with Omnicom.
I thought publicist was independent. So WPP is
still independent.
Well, no. WPP is the competitor with Omnicon. Yeah, so it's
Yeah, but but publicist was there's a there's a third,
there's a little group out of Europe, I think is still
independent. And there's also a lot of little independent
agencies that that that are trying to build absolutely get
bought out by one of the two big guys
publicist was merged into Omnicom last year. Okay. Now,
you're absolutely correct. Because there is, of course, the
curry Devorah Consulting Group.
We haven't been bought.
No, no. Who still? I mean, who was still independent and
available? Yeah. And did you if you look at the let's see, where
is it? There is a you know, real sex the HBO series. Yeah.
Episode number 33. The title of the episode, stock stocks down
Sex Up? I mean, come on, man. We're good. In the morning to
John C. Dvorak.
In the morning, you have Mr. Adam curry, Mr. Adam curry, and
all the ships at sea and all the boots on the ground, feed in the
air subs in the water. And all the days and nights out there.
And
in the morning to all of our recent human resources in the
chat room, no agenda stream.com. No agenda. chat.net. Thank you
very much to our artists as usual, great work. From Mr.
Martin. JJ returning into the fold, no agenda, art
generator.com. That's where you can upload your submissions, we
need to remind our artists of a few things.
Yeah. Oh, that's right, we keep forgetting to remind them. Let's
remind them now I'm reminding you to remind them.
We have a number of John's kind of
like my Pavlovian dog, I remember we have a number
of issues with the with some art, you have to be aware of
one, do not put this into the show number on the art because
that means we can never use that again in the future if we pass
on it one week and want to use it the next. So that doesn't
work. But the more importantly, is the size of the type. It has
to be big enough. So if you go look, go look at no agenda
show.com. And look at Adam, Adam shrinks his art for the 50%
shrink it down 50% percent. If you cannot read the type, at
that size, we're not going to use the art.
And that's and that's the art, by the way, is mainly used. And
it's been it's getting harder and harder to actually make it
show up in the podcast catchers and the players. So that when
you're playing the episode, you have the brand new art, which as
we know, actually creates more donations to the show when we
have good art, and it shows up. So we
have a wishlist course. Yeah. And yes, it's the album art. So
it needs to be readable. And it doesn't mean you have to have
huge, it just has to be readable, like white on black
would be useful, you know,
red on black, red on black, from red on yellow frowned upon.
And we do not use our pictures we went to first a year to two
years of Elton bar was just the two of us people had variations
on the two of goofballs, and we were in all the art.
And the end result is there's this one picture of the two of
us when 100 years after our death stuck. That's what we will
look like that'll be us. Like a Rembrandt. That's that one.
That's him, even though he probably looked completely
different. Yes, ducks,
we don't use any of that, under any circumstances, because we
you there's at least 100 or 200 pieces of it already. And when
somebody I think along the way we were, you know, every we were
when we were picking the art and somebody decided to just drop
the two of us and it was funnier much better. That's it. And
that, that that moment, I can't remember which artists it was.
But we just switched off the old model. And we went with the new
standalone art that has more to do with the show and less to do
with us.
And also we want original art. Now you can modify things,
particularly if it's done in ingest, if you're making fun of
something ie a parody, but in general, we'd like to have some
kind of new stuff.
Yeah, and that's why people who are actual there are we do have
some graphic artists, professionals out there that
occasionally come in with a piece of cool art. We usually
gobble that up because it's pretty, it's always good.
I agree. Now right now, that being the big one, that being
the big wind up we're back in our yo yo formation.
Yes, we have another Sunday with not much interest in support, or
contribution. I think it
was show lack of kittens in your newsletter. Personally,
I don't run my personal letter on Saturday to have to promote
kittens only show up on major.
But I want to say out of kids, by the way, there's a shortage
of kittens. The news, the newsletter you put together it
is it is a piece of art, I have to say, because you always send
me the text and I'll comment or you know that maybe a spelling
correction is not much. I mean, usually it's always good to go.
But the when it comes in, I'm always happy to look at it
because the art you put in is fabulous. It really really is
awesome sauce. It really makes it nice. And I'm a big fan of
email newsletters which Gmail thinks is promotion. Thank you.
Not that I use Gmail, but I'm as a point of reference, like the
like the spin place they do. They do a Sunday newsletter and
it's really creative. It's pretty, you know, I think they
use Constant Contact, which is a competitor to where we use
MailChimp, but it's nice, you know, I like it, I enjoy it.
It's like it's like a beautiful little novelette like an email
giblet coming in. I like reading it and I love the newsletter
even though I've read the text, I still like looking at what
pictures you've selected. It's funny, it's good kudos to you my
friend goodwill Thank you
very much and I do my best to find art that matches somehow
and I try to find try to find public domain art whenever I can
of course the matches best the the what I'm talking about or
what we're talking about in the case of the of the monthly or
the weekly newsletter and the it came to mind a couple you know
some weeks back that I should put a kitten on the and I
thought it was actually pertinent with the running the
cute little running kitten it through the grass I think one of
the greatest pictures ever best best ever. That is a that is the
highest quality of Modern Art and so the kid so then I decided
to get another kit and then I got a third kit now I'm now I'm
really in trouble because his next newsletter which will be
coming out on Tuesday night or Wednesday. Needs a kitten and I
and I'm looking looking now I've got it I'm thinking to move into
puppies.
Oh, okay. Well, the condoms are cute. Yeah, puppies are cute.
I don't know if that'll help the contribution.
Well let this be a study.
It's possible that people are burning out on that show. And
then when it comes to like helping the can we
do an image show then we do an AB test puppies versus kittens.
I you know, I could do it. They won't. Let's see MailChimp does
let you do a B test but they only let you do it on certain
variables. They don't they don't have a puppies versus kitten the
model that you can actually make work. In other words, you have
two separate newsletters. So one
was a puppy with kittens. Wow, the level we sink to John. Hey,
let's thank some people we
have to do thanks for people
who despite the lack of
executive producers and to loan Associate Executive producers

question is, should we

Dennis.

Okay. Oh, you need to decide. Is this a brush up or is the
brush out? Dennis nothing here in Hilo, Hawaii. Who which is a
great little place. I wonder You know, I should ask him. Whether
the old airport is still in the old Hilo airport was one of the
most quaint places in the world. I'm sure it's been modernised
and wrecked. The closest thing to it I'd say is Long Beach. If
you've ever been to that, of course.
Of course. Long Beach.
Great airport. Hello again. John anatomic closes my second
instalment of 333 33 I think now I may deserve a de douching
Absolutely. I am still behind in the value for value deal, but
I'm catching up. I have nothing witty to say. Except I would
like to hear Lizzie a but he would now he's mentioned the
clip that I don't believe is Lizzie as the other girl. I
lived in Italy for nine years. So hearing her speak in Italian
is a pleasure. So Adam pick one of her clips please. You know
that one was you know that's
that's actually my my niece. That's as nice as sabe douching
and Isabey. Is that what he wants? Yeah, when are you?
Sorry.

karma from my brother Benjamin Benjamin. Ben yami.
Yeah, go yeah, looking forward to it. You've got karma. You
know, the Dutch really only donate just to hear you
pronounce their name,
whatever works. But I do have I do have one of the systems that
allows me to do that Eric gave me for Christmas two Christmases
ago and I just haven't cracked it I maybe I should learn does
get get like a Rosetta Stone thing.
I don't think it's I don't know if it's Rosetta Stone or the
other guys. Finally, anonymous from Brooklyn, New York. 20 $12
please mention is anonymous. Blah, blah, blah. Please read as
much as you can. Hopefully this gets me an EP credit. Yes, it
does. So a EP as I listened to show 587 had to instantly log on
to Pay Pal and cancel my monthly 1111 subscription and change it
to 3333 I'm also sending this separate tuner $12 donation I've
been listening to no agenda for three years and today I realise
what was missing from the recent shows I haven't heard a decent
argument between YouTube for a while we had one last week when
he when Adam was going on and on defending the elite specifically
Tom Perkins
read his No Don't. Don't editorialise Just read his note.
Okay, I'm just saying I just was correcting him. Both of you.
Providing your facts and analysis on the pearl on the
Perkins letter and arguing over them was amazing. Yes, amazing.
I realised that you make us listeners understand the facts
even better via the obviously I don't rehearse these reads I
would have noticed that. Even better via the debate here is
your value for value more is coming through my monthly
subscription and hopefully I will be a full night soon.
Requesting karma only since I already took up a lot of your
time. Are you able to?
Yes. Thank you very much for for I think you nailed it.
Unfortunately, it didn't seem to work for everybody else. No.
You've got
in Brooklyn the arguing all the time. Yes. Hey,
when Brooklyn. Yeah, exactly.
All right. So that's our job for people for show. Well, 588
Hopefully next Sunday, Sunday Sunday, we can do better. But
we're news marches on want to thank them then remind everyone
to go to detroit.org/nhl to varric.com/na also the no agenda
show.com And no agenda nation.com both have donate
buttons you can push and welcome
to all the new listeners from the Who's Coming to Dinner
benefit last night who I'm sure all tuning into this programme
going would
know these two boneheads
that's that's what that MTV guys doing. Oh man. He's really sunk
low honey No wonder
I used to used to be famous. No wonder he's
in South Austin.
Austin like the low rent.
No, our neighbourhood is what we call spotty John spots. Some PR
mentioned Scott McKenzie author of course of one day and Gitmo
nation and a Gitmo nation Christmas Carol is back with a
new Amazon giblet. Or these these little ebooks which we'd
like to call giblets. And his new one is called Death by auto
pen. And it's another no agenda short story. We have the
synopsis here. For many years, the White House has used the
device called an auto pen to automate the President's
signature on all types of documentation. But behind closed
doors, the auto pen is used by presidential aides to create
fake letters. It's all fun and games until Washington
journalist Andy Mackenzie falls out with his White House staffer
landlord who has just been put in charge of the kill list.
Death by auto pen is the latest short story in the Gitmo nation
series. It's based on topics discussed on the no agenda show
hosted by Adam Korean John C. Dvorak. How cool is that? It's
extremely cool. And I'd say he sent us a copy. I haven't read
it yet. But I Kindle. I really, though. He's the previous one
one day and get my nation what's a good read? I really liked it.
Let's see
your comic book.
I don't know. I didn't know we had one.
Well, it was a couple years too. But two and a half years ago
now. Well, yeah. Well, I can talk about a lot of great
initiatives, John, that have fallen by the people always find
out it's really hard to keep up with us. Yeah, in the morning,
John, doing anything. Yeah, one let you know. And the listeners
know about no agenda droid 2.0, which is now available on the
Google and Amazon app stores. You can listen to episodes read
show notes, listen to clips and new. NEW NEW NEW NEW NEW, new in
2.0 is no agenda livestream page complete with schedule of
upcoming shows. Wow, Thursday, Sunday, Thursday, Sunday,
Thursday, Sunday, as well as a jingle board with over 50 of
your favourite na Diddy's. The app is $1.69. And I pledge to
donate 33 cents from each purchase back to the show. And
he has a donation coming up later on. For the 155 downloads
he's received so far. link in the show notes. But you can also
find this, of course, this one in the Play and Amazon app
stores. And we thank Rick very much for that. And then finally,
we don't promote a lot of the URL forwards. But Jim Bhasin,
Nick Abon zek really nailed one for us. And he says, gentlemen,
we need to get her ahead of the curve on this one, it's so
obvious that this is going to be the mean for 2014 Go to climate
inequality.com. And that forwards to no agenda show.com
That is a great one.
That is a great one, because you can just see because they're
using every gimmick they can soak the rich countries, these
little countries, and they say where we're suffering. We looked
at the effects of climate change,
money or climate victims, exactly. The symptoms, climate
inequality.com Which is great doing
before the climate was changing.
Those are all great initiatives. Thank you very much. And of
course to our executive and Associate Executive Producers
even though the list is short, We highly appreciate what you're
doing. And of course these credits are valid credits. We
will vouch for them the tab someone called us up will tell
them exactly this is a real producer credit and they are
good wherever credits are accepted. For instance, your
IMDB or your LinkedIn page evora.org/n A, and please
consider going out there and propagating our formula. Our
formula is this. We go out. We hit people in the mouth
The day where we're on the topic of the rich versus poor debate
that was going on, I think Tom Hartman, that did this a good
lawyer interlude, Thom Hartmann may have figured out the whole
model for, for the problems that we face in this country is kind
of a form of CO opting. And so I have this clip may give away
what I think about it. It's called the screwball logic of
Tom Hartman.
And please note, Tom is spelt Thumb, Thumb
thumb and the 401 K plan and that's why all these companies
are doing away with their pension plans and all go into
401. K,
you're right, Reagan, Reagan started that trend. Yeah. And
the whole idea was if we can get average working people into the
stock market, you know, because most of the stock market is, you
know, really, really rich people. And if we can get the
average working person in the stock market, then they'll start
caring about the things that rich people care about, which
will be good for the rich people which is why Reagan did it. And
you know, it's basically screwed the working person and the rich
people you know, they got people who manage their body they know
how to run this on
Tom Hartman how many millions of years think he makes
just like devas Ray is evil scheme by the evil Ronald Reagan
to make for people think like rich people and support them
Yeah, maniac we have the reverse by the way. The stock market is
not mostly people by the ownership of studies not mostly
quite
the opposite it's institutional
institutions is giant pension funds that benefit the working
man and all the rest No, this guy's nuts
but he's making some nut dough boy Well, I
don't know how much he makes he does have a syndicated radio
show that's not even on the top 10 So I guess that's some that's
at least our that's at
least 750 a year. What's his coverage? So if you cover the
whole the whole the whole us?
I hear him a lot so he probably he probably you're probably
right. You probably guessed at least
seven 750 I used to be in that bid business. Yeah, once
you're syndicated to that extreme you there's money to be
made. It's just and then it's just numbers. It really is just
numbers. Right? Can you say Lydia my numbers okay. And then
there's some associative thing but January we missed some
important things in January actually one but it was not by
presidential proclamation but I do want to mention January was
thyroid Awareness Month and I would like to say that now you
should have your thyroid tested. Thyroid is a magical device if
you think you're bipolar you may want to have that thing tested
but however for February my my my my my the President is very
busy Shall we of course we have to share our months. So it is
national Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention Month
so no more teen dating only if you don't violence it and it is
also American Heart Month and it is National African American
History Month.
Ah yes. Google celebrated that with their their nifty little
Google logo change. What
did they change it to?
They change it to? I don't know some thing that is little black
man. And there are some some racist thing.
They should combine it all. They should have like a little black
man with his heart exploding being beaten while on a date.
Yeah, just the thought
that would be Yeah, well, it's that'd be house of lies. I have
to recommend this TV show by the way.
Oh, you want you want to be very careful. Recommending TV shows.
I know. You know why? Why?
May I read you a quick note? Oh, no, from Jonathan Jennings.
Yeah, read it. Dear. Mr. Dvorak. Thanks for your recommendation
of the show Rubicon. My wife and I just finished watching it and
wow, what an ending. by that. I mean, there was no ending, a
cliffhanger that will never be resolved. It's almost as if you
recommended the show just to be a dick. Thanks so much.
I got 10 notes that say just Yeah, absolutely enjoyed the
show. It's got Yeah, it's got an open ending ending because it
was never expected to be dropped unceremoniously by the network.
And I like to save money from the agency came over says, hey,
you know, it's a little too much to this day.
I just love it that someone said it wasn't like Adam read this
for John. No, it's adam@curry.com. Hello, Mr.
Dvorak. You're a dick. I mean, seriously, people this has to
stop.
I, I recommend you continue to practice.
Alright, what are you going to recommend first today, John,
what do you have the house of
lies with Don she'll show it's in his 27th episode and you It
is it's somebody described that what's that DiCaprio movie that
was just done but with Score says, for Wall Street, Wall
Street is kind of described as a similar show where every person,
every person, every single person on the show is
reprehensible. And again, a complete douche. Everyone, and
it's extremely entertaining. What's it called the show? The
house of lies on Showtime.
I'm a fan of Cheadle. I didn't even know about this show.
Yeah. Good. You should have Yeah, if you're a fan of
Cheetos. You should have been on the show already. But we
don't have a clip. I'm sorry. I'm kind of busy.
Well, I'm just saying you say you're a fan. Yeah. I grew up
did well. I saw Jackie I'm in Las Vegas. Jackie Mason's
walking down the aisle.
I'm not a fan. But okay, I get I get it. I'm not
the I say hello. Hi. I'm a big fan of yours. He says you come
to my show tonight. No, so what kind of a fan art Yeah, fuck
you.
I can hear him say. I can hear him saying he's right. Big fan.
Big fan. That's what they say. That's what they say in
Hollywood. By the way. When when when when celebrators meet each
other big fan really enjoy your work, love your work, appreciate
the work you do big fans
outside of Hollywood I get it around here says oh, hey, John.
Hey, I love your work. I loved all those all those columns you
did in PC World
100 million years ago
good work for PC World. Hello. So are you
retired now? He never wrote for PC World Of course that's
horrible when they say that.
He's always say that I but I here's what I still write for PC
mag is John, would
you believe that? That from time to time I get the wow, what was
it like to work on VH? One? I kid you not I seriously business
when you were there? Yeah, it's started around the same time a
little later after I got there. But I'm flabbergasted when
people say that.
You know, here's kind of allude clip. I want to room if people
want to put their kids in another room for this clip that
because the show is pretty lewd. From the house of lies. This is
the this is the clip that says named that TV shows they're
going to grill you on it. But I decided I never would have
known. No, you wouldn't. Of course not as the idea. But But
let me just set this up. There's a creepy guy who was run out of
the company for being a sexual harasser of 50 making all these
women screw him. And he somehow because the company is the sales
by the way, the show is about a sales organisation. Everybody's
a salesman. We really have vague what they sell, but they're all
sales sales sales. Everyone's who says it's like really nails
the sale mentality. And this and Kristen Bell plays one of the
protagonists. They're all protagonists. And, and she is
meeting with the guy who she's the one who got the guy fired in
the first place is the backstory. And so he starts
back. And this is the little dialogue they have.
I just tell my failure My Lord is telling me I can't even fire
this stupid little cut that made all this happen.
Can I just say one thing? These friends that couldn't hang with
your dehumanisation of what was the final number 16 Women maybe
they weren't your real friends to begin to.
Feed me like coercion bullshit. I didn't hold a gun to your
head. You want it? Oh,
God. Yes. That too. tight shirts. That's thick headed
breaths. The Snow White bush. We all just had to have it I mean
What girl doesn't dream of blowing Santa Claus
I'm a fan what's her name?
That's Kristen Bell Yeah. Oh,
nice. Oh watch that. Yes, it's
it's a half hour drama it's very funny. It's a little lewd but
funny.
Well, we have hit the hat trick the trifecta. It's in third
banker now dead.
Yeah, three is the magic number. It
is the magic number. We have it in one week I think three
bankers. A pair apparent all three apparent suicides.
Although one fell off the roof. One
fell, fell off.
One fell into a noose around his neck. And this third one which
was a chief economist, although they say he had issues at work.
Apparently jumped over a four foot fence before falling down a
50 foot and banishment.
Yeah. He jumped off the bridge to his death. Suicide. Yeah,
exactly. Sure.
Now I have no idea what's up if there's anything up but
typically you'd see banker suicides when stocks are down.
Now there is a little bit going on with the so called Head I'll
call it another head fake. I'll just call it what it is because
As Janet Yellen, our new Federal Reserve, Chief desk is going to
come in, I guarantee you, she's just going to start, put it
right back up printing more money every month. No doubt
about it. So it's kind of weird. She has to,
she has to know there's no, there's no question or she'll be
number four
is what a hash. You don't want to meet an unfortunate bottom of
the bridge. Do you Janet?
Right. Yeah. Could be. I don't know. I mean, a lot of people
are making a lot out of this. And it's just looks like a
suicide. And I remember, oh, that means the stock market's
going to crash. I don't think so. What would it mean the stock
market's gonna crash? If the stock market was gonna crash and
you're a banker that knew this, you wouldn't
be ready to make a bundle? Exactly. Exactly. So something
else is going on. Who knows? Who knows? David Mundine. Now he is
the only full time member but he is also the chairman of the
Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board. You will recall
the PCO the P club, I think they call it came out with a report
last week, which said pretty much everything the NSA is doing
is unconstitutional, wrong and should be done away with this is
a panel that was instituted by the 911 Commission and is
Senator as chosen by the president but approved by
Senate. And of course, their report is shaped means nothing.
And it gets no play. So this guy is now relegated when he wants
to talk on C span three. He didn't get a lecture and they
put him at a school desk at George Washington University
with four yawning people in the audience. It's really it really
is pathetic. That that no media news outlet and by the way,
hello Pierre Omidyar cuckoo guitar, Eric, pure air guitar.
Where are you with your first look media, Greg green Rob, and
Poitras, you guys should be all over this. They're not even
talking about it, which I find suspect. Because Glenn Greenwald
is the first guy who was always ready to point to something and
say CCC, but he's not even pointing to this. And I'm, I'm
suspicious of that. Anyway, so we read this report, and it's
very damning and I think the President never made a comment
about it. It's his panel. But okay. I'd spokes Hall Carney
just came out the fact
that you've found given his speech to a room of guys replace
this new Oh,
sad. It's really sad. And of course, all he could do was
reiterate never
be on a panel again.
Keeping he may not want to walk in buildings with 33 stories.
This was not a good and a good thing. And the guy seems really
nice. If any, of course, we surely did his job. He did his
job. He absolutely. And this is a federal agency, by the way.
And you know, he's in this he's basically complaining is like,
we can't get funding. We can't get a desk. We can't get
offices. Yeah. How's that that honest report working out for
you, David. But the what he said, which is what we already
concluded with his appointment, and I'll just remind you of the
conversation we had, um, there was only a few days before the
Snowden revelations came out when when he was finally
approved and put in place. And we just I think we were kind of
joking. Like, that was just in time, like, yeah, this thing may
be scripted. Well, holy crap.
After waiting for the Senate to act 510 days on my nomination, I
was finally confirmed on May 7 2013. And I took office on May
29, four days before the first Snowden leaks were published in
the newspaper, so maybe somebody knew how to time my entrance.
But it's certainly a long way. But I caught him in a very
interesting time. Yes.
You don't say? Even he knows it?
Yeah, well, it's kind of obvious in fact.
Yeah, I think it's so obvious that it warrants senatorial
congressional Oh,
they don't forget we would before this stuff was published
this notice stuff, they ran it through the agencies, they had
to you remember this right? Yes, we all remember they say all
that was printed, right? The stuff that was printed in the
gunboat, The Guardian and The Washington Post, and where they
got the special hit guy to come in and do the piece and
they probably had this at least a month, maybe two months before
publication.
We don't know but whatever the case was, it was probably just
in time to get this guy in. So they they couldn't point the
finger and say, well, where's this guy?
Is that a Is that a question? I'm just saying I missed the
statement. If you got if this stuff is rolling around through
the chat through channels. Somebody's gonna say what date
where are we vulnerable? because you have writings and that's the
first question. Yes, it well one thing we've never filled this
position, which makes it look like we don't care about human
rights,
confirm, confirm, confirm quick 500 days. That's fine. It was
like a year and a half. Yeah, so all of a sudden the
guy and now you can point the finger at the missing position
but meanwhile this guy's in there,
but we can push them down to George Washington University in
the basement with a school desk with a chair with three legs
resile over the desk space.
Wall. Ah, so a couple other things that well, first, I had a
thought, you know, we've been talking about Germany, Germany,
Germany, and everything is Germany and this interview that
Eric EDWINS Snowden did was on German television. I have not
seen a single reputable news organisation. I don't even think
PBS. No one has taken a clip from it. They're not even
referencing it. We did not I know. But Germany is a we need
to speak about Germany for a moment. I want to remind this is
why I don't understand we've got Laura Poitras, based in Germany,
she is documentary filmmakers spy something rather shady don't
understand her. We've got Jacob Appelbaum, the pornography
pornographic PR guy for tour? Because he turns out he did not.
He's not the developer. He's a PR guy who used to do porn
websites. And we have that Appelbaum. Then we have Snowdens
Main Squeeze formerly known as the Julian Assange, his
girlfriend. She's in Berlin and you know, these are I'm sorry,
self imposed exile. self imposed. Yes, we had grant
Greenwald's husband picking up documents in Berlin coming
through Britain on purposely it appears to us to get caught. I
want to remind you of the Hamburg cell and this is why I
feel that it's that is very weird that no one is calling for
you know and by the way now we're Oh, we're so sorry. We
tapped Angular Merkel's John Kerry going over there to suck
up to her. And by the way, she doesn't speak English with him.
They did a press conference together and she speaks German
is translated. And she I know she can speak English. It's
something that was really weird. She's like, Screw it. I'm much
I'm speaking German. I want to remind you of the Hamburg cell
which according to the 911 report and all post analysis of
911 this is where several of the 911 If you believe in all that
hijackers blade there plans in Germany what is going on with
Germany and all this spying business and and why is the why
is no one really talking about this? 2009 is definitely
the new Vienna. Explain the reference to the Anna used to be
Oh, the drop point for all this international intrigue between
the KGB and the CIA and all the rest of it. As always in Vienna,
and I think it's because they enjoyed Vienna and it was like,
Oh, we're gonna do this nice art. You know,
it's nice to do it in Vienna. Yeah. Okay, I'll go to the
symphony afterwards.
And in 2009, there was a actually I pulled up a telegraph
report, headline terrorist cell found in Hamburg where 911
attacks were conceived German intelligence services learned
that a new militant group with 10 members headed by a German
headed by a German of Syrian origins, interesting, had sprung
up in the port city. And so there was another cell there of
terrorists. So you know, I'm not necessarily trying to tie
anything together. But why isn't anyone saying what's up with
Germany? Now, amidst all of this kind of looking around, and
trying to understand the timeline of Edward II, Edwin
Eric Snowden something very interesting cropped up, and I
need to give Kiwi Cameron some props for this. I'm going to
play two clips, one from the original by the way, if you have
a chance, it's linked in the show notes. Go back and watch
the original the first interview from Snowden where Graham
Greenwald is asking the questions. It's the portraits
interview, where he re explains the prism system where He
literally says it has some very explicit detail that Apple,
Google, Microsoft, Yahoo give access to the back end to the
NSA so that they don't have to that they have no culpability.
And he's very, very clear about that.
That's right. And the slides were clear about
it. But forget the slide. He says it so clearly that and I
think people, you know, the skirt around that, and we've got
all these companies like, Oh, we didn't do anything. I think
they're full of crap. But of course we have to protect them
anyway, listen to what he said and interview one and what he
reiterates in the second interview, the only shown on
German television for some reason no one in America wants
to show not
all analysts have the ability to target everything. But I sitting
my desk, certainly had the authorities to to wiretap
anyone, from you or your accountant to a federal judge to
even the president if ahead.
Now, at first, this just sounds like he's, you're saying
something like, I can tap anything anywhere. But now the
second interview when you
are on the inside, when you go into work every day, when you
sit down at the desk, and you realise the power you have, you
can wiretap the President of the United States, you can wiretap
federal judge. And if you do it carefully, no one will ever know
because the only way the NSA discovers abuses are from self
reporting.
There's your answer why Edward? Eric, Edwin J. Snowden will come
home and will be scot free because he's got the goods.
That's a message if I've ever heard one.
Oh, so Oh, that's an interesting, I like this. But
give me a point. How
many times does he have to say I can tap the president? No one
will know about it. I
may have some goods on whatever I guess. I've already tapped.
Yes. What do you might as well?
Yes, I've got the goods. That's exactly what he's saying.
And he probably has some set because he's not the dumbest guy
I've ever run into that's for sure. In fact, for high school
dropouts, right, because he went straight to you know, straight
to college. Yeah,
exactly. Exactly. dropped. He dropped that one because he was
so brilliant. You mean Yeah. I'm sure I mean, he's
just obviously he's smart. He's sharp. Yeah. And he's not the
oldest 100 This idiot high school dropout get a get goods
on these people.
With his fake girlfriend. Yeah, the one that doesn't exist. We
know she doesn't exist. Who is fake girlfriend?
Oh, the girlfriend number?
Yeah, why is no one interviewing her? Why are they not hot? Why
is the National Enquirer not hounding
her thing is a joke the way this is being handled and why the
American public is completely cut off from all this. I mean,
as you guys will be in comment, you know? Not today's China but
communist. Why didn't
you? Why didn't you have a book deal? Why don't you have a
reality show? Dude, we could we could produce this dude, we
could produce this. I was I was the spies girlfriend. Now on
Bravo.
It'd be great. It's not just take a genius you could hang
out with Anna we could we could have a meeting between the hot
spy Anna what's her name? The Russian one that got deported.
Who's doing Oh, yeah, that one who's doing fashion shows and
then we can put her with with Emily what's her name? Harrison
Harrison the hot girl in Berlin. It could be a multi continental
show. But no big no cheese nowhere we get we get the new
girl with a with a beautiful little black dress she had on
over there. We get we get lots of stories about the the
formerly Russians but why not about her because it doesn't
exist. And this guy is sitting there. He's like, Okay, well, I
could tap the president. I actually disagree with that.
With the president.
Know that she doesn't exist, I think because cuz I remember
when they were doing interviews in Hawaii early on when this
thing broke. And the guy next door neighbour was talking about
the two of them and the boxes that were in the weird boxes
stacked high in the garage and then they both disappeared
overnight. Oh, she made me did but always been convinced that
she was probably the his boss or handler for the agency. That's
possible. All right, she disappeared.
All I know is that I can tell you I can point to I can
probably call three producers wanted MTV one or Bravo and
probably I could call the president of a&e. And if I said,
Hey, I've got the Snowdens girlfriend for reality show.
Boom. You know the give me a 13 episode deal right there.
Yeah, and I'm sure you're not the only person in the world has
thought of that. But she works for the agency. Exactly.
Okay, there you go. And the eighth and someone who's saying
very clearly to the President. I have the goods on you.
And if you take it and you think that goods are
gay hookers, because, first of all, that's his history. That's
what's always been rumoured. I have no proof of it, of course.
National Enquirer I picked up the other day. I love picking up
the National Enquirer at the heb when I do the shopping, and I
still shop it's the shop and the shop and when I do the shop Ben.
Normally we got a wheats Ville but this is just for like paper
products and stuff. Reedsville wheats wha Whitesville. We're
owner at the co op. And right there, it's Michelle wants a
divorce. Right? He's hanging out with the pampeano the TIPS TIPS
comb Pittsville guy is not saying gay. But we know this is
Larry Sinclair. I mean, this, these things. Look, there's a
hit list around Obama and it's all young black gay men. When we
killed shot in the head, and you're to blame that's what I
think it is. Because what else the American public would not
care about anything else?
No, they would get they would get a kick out of the gay thing
though.
It would if it was just so what what the Enquirer is saying is
they're saying that Michelle Obama found out from the Secret
Service that they had been covering up his cheating right?
They don't say necessarily and then they show a picture of him
with some actress whatever. Like he's looking at her and then the
selfie with the with the Denmark chick. Which is a new term for
playing
baseball like a girl by the way.
That doesn't mean you're gay. That has nothing to do with it.
Just no has nothing to do with it. I've
got myself yeah. So
you can I'll just pretend I heard moreover. Moreover. So I
thought that was very interesting. And to me, it means
that this is the message the message is clear. We I'm coming
home because I'm tired of being here in Russia. And I want you
and by the way, I want you to bring the my hottie back from
Berlin to how much do you I'm gonna bet you right now that she
comes back and they live together? No, I can
see what I'm putting in the book. I think it's a great
prediction.
I think her name is Harrison. Rebecca. Is it Rebecca Harrison.
I don't know what her name is.
I have not seen the interview. I have got a transcript. I guess
they're holding it back and I couldn't find anything online.
Jake Tapper of all people. The guy who was kicked out of the
White House press corps now is getting a veto good, Mahara as
we call it, and he was allowed to interview the president post,
the State of the Union. And the quote here from the President, I
think Jim Clapper himself would acknowledge and has acknowledged
that he should have been more careful about he was about how
he responded. Why am
I clappers? Yeah,
lie perjury. Yeah.
It's a humiliation that Congress has not done anything about it.
His concern was that he had a classified programme and that he
couldn't talk about and he was in an open hearing in which he
was asked he was prompted, interesting, with a prompter to
disclose a programme and so he felt he was caught between a
rock and a hard place. No, Mr. President, James Clapper is a
moron. We've seen it time and time again, holder
holder did it right. Remember we have that Clip Holder
slaveholders asked the same thing, and then he won't want to
do you won't even answer. He says Well, I can't answer that.
I have to do it in closed session. And that's where we'll
talk about it. Yeah. He didn't say no, he didn't say yes, we
know
what happened here is widened. The Senator Wyden asked the
crowd the question incorrectly, not in accordance with the
script, which they had agreed to, in the days previous to the
hearing.
Well, I thought that no, I thought it was clapper didn't
bother to read the script.
Oh, they may have changed that it was something like that. But
the clapper had was not following with the script of the
day. And then he perjured himself. And now for the
President to apologise for Wow. For this visit, it's just if I
was advising the president, but of course, you know, maybe
because of whatever. Maybe he has no power at this point. But
if I was advising the President, I would say keep making the fall
guy. Put it all on Clapper, get rid of him put a new guy in
place. Tell him he's a liar. You can always pardon them later and
a couple of years. Oh,
no, actually, that'd be a great idea. You throw the whole
eupatorium under the bus. You tell them in advance. Yeah, do
it dude. I'm sorry. Here's what's gonna happen to you,
you're gonna get thrown under the bus you and that you're
gonna take the blame for the whole thing.
Exactly. And you know, and the guy is patriotic enough that he
would he would say, Okay, I'll do
it in a second. Yeah, I'd do it. He doesn't look like the guy who
would say no to that. Or you know, well, you could say no to
that and end up dead. Yeah, with a phoney suicide note. It's
saying that the whole thing was your idea.
So why do you think that hasn't taken place? And why is one step
further. Why is clapper apologising to Tapper?
Let me help me. That's weird. Why me clappers? Not some
important person that needs to be you know, you stay in that
job?
Well, as we know, according to executive order one, two, triple
three, the Director of National Intelligence, everybody reports
into him including the CIA, whatever they think they
whatever they want to report into, but everyone is supposed
to report into him. He's the central guide between the
intelligence community and the president. Maybe Clapper is in
on the deal, maybe clapper knows about the whole CIA NSA thing.
Leaving if he does what difference does it make?
The only thing I'm saying is what difference does it make? It
would be nice to know
what's going on not gonna say anything. Even if they threw him
under the bus.
Let's agree that the term throwing them under the bus just
has to be banned from the show.
i It's not it's not a good. Okay, I'm now you're up one.
I'll have to come up with one of your little favourites. To get
rid of it. Maybe bitch, you always say bitch,
well, don't act like one then that should be banned. That
should be banned. Okay, it's banned. Die, it'd be much easier
for me to do that.
I did see me to say your talent. Wait a minute. Are you telling
me that it would be difficult for me to not use under the bus?
We shall see what you implied. That's exactly
what I meant. I'm looking at this document, which I did not
hear a lot about. And apparently, there's a an EF
f.org. I'm not quite sure how they I'm sure they're getting it
from pointers or God knows. But the Electronic Frontier
Foundation has a an RSS feed for their where they call this it's
the if any document that is that comes out essentially NSA
spying, I think if you go to eff.org/nsa-spying and then you
can get these documents. And so if this is a true document, I
thought this was hilarious, and I didn't hear anyone reporting
on it. And this is from 2009 From the Copenhagen Copenhagen
cop 15 Climate Change Conference admits a report from es en si n
IO. What does that signal intelligence sin? Bad? I don't
all these cloud I don't know all these codes they use. Anyway,
endlessly looking up codes analysts here at NSA as well as
our second party partners will continue to provide policymakers
with unique, timely and valuable insights into key countries
preparations and goals for the conference, as well as
deliberations within countries on climate change policies and
negotiating strategies. Worse spying on the on the greenies?
Good it's about time he put it to good use.
That's really that's damning man that they're not terrorists.
Well, maybe they are.
Given such large, large participation with all 192 UN
member states invited to attend, leaders and negotiating teams
from all around the world will undoubtedly be engaging in
intense last minute policy formulations. At the same time,
they will be holding frequent sidebar discussions with their
counterparts, details of which are of great interest to our
policymakers. While the outcome of the Copenhagen Climate Change
Conference remains uncertain signals intelligence will
undoubtedly play a significant role in keeping our negotiators
as well informed as possible throughout the two week event.
Wow.
We're evil. No, it's all for the good of the country.
Oh, we of course it is. U S. A U S. We're number one.
We are number one. And that's what the number one and what
spying?
That's what the see like binders. Well, this is the
Caribbean and Latin American countries. I believe they have a
little conference, the sea lack. Yeah. And the President of
Bolivia who was in on the game, by the way, pretending that that
his plane was forced down in Vienna. There's your Vienna
reference,
more than 30 Latin American and Caribbean countries are
declaring the region a zone of peace. They signed the agreement
during a two day summit in Cuba. The countries pledged to respect
each other's right to choose their own political system
that's particularly important to Cuba who has been criticised
harshly for their one party system. The US was not invited
to the summit, but it remained a hot topic, especially for the
recent surveillance operations. Bureau. Spying is needed for the
international community security. I proposed that we all
spy on Obama and his government will be saved and then
the world will be safe. Hey, don't go off script. Mr.
President of Bolivia stick with the programme everything will be
fine. Don't be ad libbing. Don't be ad Living Okay, stop. So
just as breaking news for the show that even though we do this
once the
breaking breaking breaking news breaking news,
Philip Seymour Hoffman dead. What? Yeah.
Oh my gosh, that's shocking. Yeah.
He's apparent drug overdose, but really? I think
he's pretty young. He's not he's 46 Holy crap. Wow
York apartment.
Well if you gotta go might as well go into New York apartment
with a hooker
Well, the hooker was not there if that's the shoot was there
was a hooker.
Oh, that's sad. Yeah. Great actor.
Yeah. played a lot of very controversial roles. All right.
Well, thanks for bumming me out.
Sorry, I didn't know you knew the guy. Did you?
Kind of not know kind of.
I met him once. Very shy. All right. We got a couple
things. You know what? No, no, no, this you know what I'm
thinking. But I got it. Because I've been tracking this. I'm
going to guess heroin. And there is I've been tracking something
here something is going on. With the poppies. Now we know we're
about to pull out of Afghanistan or so called. And everywhere I
turn. It's all about heroin. And I'm thinking a couple of things.
Firstly, if we actually do pull out away from the poppy Stan
fields, who is going to run the heroin into America is the
question it will be very hard because we just won't have the
the flow we won't have the throughput of
the plane won't have the mechanism in place. And if
and people if you think I'm just bullshitting you here, go watch
American gangster and seriously go into the truth. But what a
true story story true story. And who says it's no longer true and
look up Mena, Arkansas, and there's a million places you can
find information about this. And please look at where the bases
are in Afghanistan. You will see you will see that they are
conveniently located beaten this up on the show quite a bit. Not
everyone has been listening to the show for a long time. And
the Europe, the United Nations Office of Drug Policy and drug
tracking, you know, year over year and this year, no different
production of heroin off the charts. And here's what I'm
seeing. I'm seeing nothing but heroin promotion. Here recent
this week,
son of Senator Mark Udall Democrat of Colorado was
arrested this week. On drug possession and trespassing
charges. The Boulder County Sheriff's Office said Thursday
Jebediah Lee Fox Udall
great name by the way. Jebediah Lee Fox Udall was taken
into custody on Wednesday after the sheriff's office received a
report that a man matching his description was trying to break
into cars and Eldorado springs Colorado after the authority
stopped and searched him. Mr. Fox Udall admitted to having
used heroin in the past 48 hours.
Okay. And then we have from yesterday state
health officials say a deadly batch of heroin is hitting
Maryland streets Friday. The already potent drug is now being
laced with fentanyl.
So we got heroin here we had the
What's it laced with what
fentanyl? Do you know what deal with this is fentanyl? Yeah,
it's I think it's 80 times more powerful than morphine. And that
Fen Phen stuff. We talked about a couple shows ago. No, I think
we talked about this stuff. No, no, this
is something different. It's fentanyl. Fentanyl. By the
way that the story of the Udall kid seems also seems more to me
to be connected to the legalisation of marijuana in
Colorado as a cautionary tale you're going to watch it come
out oh well I started by smoking marijuana and then the next
thing I know I wanted to use heroin
well that's not how the story ends. In fact it he was picked
up for heroin last year so it's really not they do not compute
could be a Udall is also a Democrat So then I've been
trying to rip any Republican guy but there's this deadly heroin
against don't use drugs.
Wow, look at this heroin fentanyl mix plaguing many
states. Oh, this is a bit much bigger than I thought. But it's
all just really stuff we talked about
fentanyl.
Is that That's the stuff that they are using in Syria. Was
that it? Yeah, I think so. No, that was some that was something
else John. It's a painkiller. Okay, now we got to think
something different. It's a painkiller. You got the drug
problem. That was not fentanyl, because these guys would be
fallen down. That was more like a Hypo thing that they were
using.
Alright, we're done. We're on this. We're on the stick here.
Yeah, you're on the stick. Yeah, keep talking today. So this mix
of heroin and fentanyl is it has a trade name Theraflu which is
funny, because whenever I have I don't feel good. I love taking
Theraflu
you take Theraflu Yeah.
But not this kind of Theraflu there's also a competing brand
called Magic City and the fentanyl so when you match this
when you mix these two together, it's like heroin on to the max
like amplia goes to 11 and 39 people have died in Baltimore
alone of this Miss
event. No, Syria. Really, this is eight issues fentanyl
warning, false. Holy crap. Causes overdose boom in Estonia.
John, we're onto something here. This this is I think this is
significant. And what happens if we find out that the actor is
Philip Seymour Hoffman if he Oh deed on heroin and fentanyl mix?
I don't think so. At this point based on the way things go on
this show than what we come up with. Yeah,
yeah. Wow, totally. But so this is now related. So Siri This is
now you have a Syria Afghanistan connection. Man we are so good.
Bow to we bring in the heroin from Afghanistan. We got the
separate trade route from Syria with fentanyl. We mix it up and
we sell it the kids for $4 A bag this is a great country or what?
Philip Hoffman is the spokes
spokesperson. Good word. Oh man, because you know all of it's
just promo. If you're if you're a kid like hey, that's that's
fentanyl stuff. I mean, seriously, listen, listen to
they got a kid in this report. A powerful painkiller right there.
I'm already interested. You put those two together. It's like
one plus one equals a million. Hello, Common Core. Common Core.
I'm all over
this substance abuse expert Mike gimble says this could just be
the tip of the iceberg. Yeah, where's the recipe?
Like that's another solid dead clone.
As more of this hits the street in a battle to win over new
customers. Hello. More people are going to run to it thinking
they can handle it. And they can't we are so number one.
The Office of the medical examiner says the drug has
killed 37 People
statewide some losers just don't know how to do it losers
September most
being in Baltimore City, Baltimore Prince George's and
Anne Arundel counties. I know lock myself in my bathroom. This
man describes the CBN
This is not a man this is a kid. Alright, this is a teenager
describing how he takes like myself in the bathroom TV news
what it's like to
try the lethal drug. And probably 20 seconds I was up how
the WOW 20 seconds I was out.
Good to go. Where
do I pick me up? Some h&m officials say fentanyl?
Well, I was gonna say if you remember one of the things that
we talk about on the show you'd like to actually harp on is that
it the more that you should then that's the reason that it
increases tobacco sales is that if you put all these horrible
warnings on this will kill you more you sell. You sell more.
And that's also the basic thesis that we have. Based on the all
the commercial drug disclaimers, drug commercials and all the bad
things are gonna happen to you if you tried this drug and
people for some reason. It turns out to be a sales pitch.
And this pitch is being pushed right now. And John, look at the
if you just Google I just Googled fentanyl. I didn't even
Google it the heroin mix. And let me go back to the so here it
is. Heroin fentanyl mix plaguing many states. That's the that's
the top, the top hit and I don't even put heroin in there. Just
fentanyl,
fentanyl, transdermal patch. And no drug effects of Duragesic
fentanyl.
So not going to do heroin fentanyl. Killer batch of white
heroin responsible for at least 100 deaths. Hmm. heroin users
warned about deadly additive Washington Post but this is wow.
This is June 2006. This is interesting. So that was their
previous marketing push.
Well, this is the Okay, let's assume that we're still in play
here with the heroin coming in. Now is the supply is going to be
price prices are about to go up. Yeah, so you need a filler. And
so what you're doing now, Hamburger Helper, you're
promoting this as a as more than a booster It's not like just
that you're essentially what we're talking about here. Let's
be honest the new and improved from a drug perspective and
cutting heroin Yes, done fashion way where you take some heroin
and you cut it back and then you sell somebody some weak crap
for a lot of money. And here's the here's the beauty. Where's
the fentanyl coming from? Where's the hamburger helping
coming for Hamburger Helper coming from? It's coming from
Syria, which is in play. Right? So it's cheap. So it's cheap,
super cheap, and it's being sold in the way that things are
always sold to America one, it's really bad for you, you might
get anal leakage to it's new and improved kids. Look, it's all
shiny. And it has a cool name, like Theraflu or magic bag,
whatever. And that's how we sell so this is 2006 Chicago, the
largest clue that something had changed in Chicago's vibrant
heroin market. 2006 people eight years ago, came in February
Whoa, boy, February seems to be the harvest when police found a
dozen users sprawled unconscious in one place. toxicologist at
the Cook County more discovered fentanyl a powerful painkiller
many times stronger than morphine in the bodies of
addicts who died. A small amount of fentanyl and a dose of heroin
adds a pop that many users have come to crave. That's right. And
even we even use the term kids like pop, snap, crackle and pop.
It's a new phenomenon. It's the latest high. That's funny. How
come they're saying it's a new phenomenon all over again eight
years ago when it was a new phenomenon in 2006.
Well, you know if it didn't sell the first time,
just rewrite it, repackage it and sell it again.
Lorraine police November 12 2013. Fake heroin causing ODS
is pure fentanyl. Wow. Interesting. Well, this is that
we're the only people talking about this or certainly the
only people connecting it with Afghanistan and Syria. I mean,
the Syria thing is just crazy. That's just really crazy job.

basically a banner ad and donated that money to the show.
That's the 5050 The website is sexual predator drone.com.
It's kind of something funny about
it a little. It's a funny little site there. And you know, there
are people basically Googling and they're like a sexual
predator. Hey, what's the sexual predator? drone.com That might
be hot. How disappointed they will be. But yeah, we show you a
banner ad. And there you go. That's our business model. Which
is truly value for value. So if you get any value, if you
thought this conversation was interesting so far, please think
of us.
We had another producer who gave us his Netflix money. Now. He
said he gets more from this show than his Netflix account.
Because you'll probably dig into the free account where you go
with Netflix. Just change your name a little I'm sure
if people really looked at what they're spending every single
month on so called informational products. Oh, if it's horrible,
or info information or entertainment products are
infotainment, which is what it really all is. Yeah, I bet you
people would be
hundreds of dollars cable is ridiculously overpriced. When
you can get good over the air in most parts of the country. It is
truly Well I told you I put an antenna up I got 87 channels
over the air.
When are you going to get your ham stuff going in so we can do
a Q so
oh man. Yeah. Q s o.org/and.
There you go. Well, we have no birthdays, while other than Miss
Mickey's mom would have celebrated her birthday today.
So we think of her today. But no other birthdays to celebrate on

Just the stretch to segment out a little more Kevin grants the
one who cancelled his Netflix subscription and Brett Mahoney
is the one who he gave us 100 bucks but he needs I think we
should give him some special job karma because he's just getting
out of college. Oh, he doesn't want to be homeless.
It's gonna need a lot more than just some special job cover. But
for everybody just coming out of college listening to the
programme jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's vote for jobs.
Meanwhile,
back at the ranch,
I have a little story that's interesting. This is the nude
protests in San Francisco. I think we should all pay careful
attention. San Francisco police arrested at least four people
today at a rally for nudity. About a dozen protesters were
there to mark the first anniversary of the city law
banning nudity. Organisers say there's growing acceptance of
what is called body freedom. And they predict the law will be
overturned violations though right now can lead to $100 Fine.
The ordinance makes exceptions for young children and the beta
breakers race. Yeah, so the race they're running around naked. I
guess children can go around naked for all the paedophiles
out there. Makes no sense. This is such a weird country body
freedom. Yeah,
it's like internet freedom only. No packets.
Fans, some of these people I've seen them
in this country is so weird. Then it's like women can't
breastfeed in public. Although it's legal everywhere. It was
just suppressed repressed sexual craziness. No wonder we make the
best porn. Can't do it. It's really sad is really a really,
really a sad. It's
a lot of sex going on. Yeah, but it's we just don't like to
display it. It was embarrassing. I think I think she's the
opposite. Why is it embarrassing to display? Because I think
we're a bunch of sex crazed maniacs. While this is true,
much more so than a lot of these other countries. And so there
you would so by showing more, I think it's just like, No, no,
no, no, no, no, that may figure it out.
Okay, that makes sense. Because so the reason why we the
industry is better and has more money if we don't show like
nipples and stuff and breasts, because God forbid you see a
breast. Oh.
There's something like that.
The gay white paper. I've shorted now just the gay white
paper was released, of course on Wednesdays newsletter and
Thursday. And it's lots of people than hitting people in
the mouth with it. Very interesting to see. Some of our
producers are doing some fun things with it. One of our let
me see if I can get his name here. Your payload we know. Yep.
He's he's been a sponsor of the show. Key send a copy to the
Dutch arm of Amnesty International. Nice. And they
said, and I have the email here. It's in Dutch. So it'd be
translating on the fly. They said well, so essentially, he's
what he said, I'm very confused because you are telling people
to boycott the Olympic Games not to go to Sochi because of their
anti gay laws. But this white paper that I've received, which
has been written by a very prominent activist, gay
activist, seems to point to the contrary. And Amnesty
International writes back and says, Well, you know, we have
all the information here and they give them the URL. It says,
Yeah, but have you read this white paper because it says
something else? And their reply is, look, we have so much
information coming in every day. We don't have time to read white
papers. I swear to God, that's from Scotland, Amnesty
International Public Affairs,
in the night sent a copy of the white paper to Andy hum of the
gay news on free speech TV.
And of course, he called you up and
never heard back and I Don't expect to and I don't expect
them to change their position Russia sucks. They hate gays and
that's you know well it's very interesting to see
glad the this of course is Gay Lesbian Alliance Alliance and
something defamation thing G L A D and they are they've got they
really all in on this and actually have found a pretty
cool website are all in on what on making money off of hating a
Russia for propaganda anti gay. Okay, so they've brought in
American Apparel and they're making all these T shirts and
they're selling T shirts they
don't have anything to do with this white paper no nothing
whatsoever.
Go away. shirt and human rights now. They are here and this is
here they sent out a letter time is running out for the sponsors
of the Sochi Olympics to take a clear stand in defence of
Olympic values. And yes value so they well they
that's what's an oxymoron.
Thank you. Human Rights Watch is telling everyone to boycott a
toasts Coca Cola, Dow Chemical General Electric McDonald's,
Omega Panasonic Procter and Gamble Samsung and visa.
We have to get a hold of here. We have to get a hold before the
socio Olympics, we have to get a hold of the PR people from Coca
Cola in particular and get them
the white paper and get them the white papers every day. They'll
never do it. They'll never do it. They'll never do it. They
won't do it. They don't want to they want to don't want to be in
the fight. They just want everyone to drink Coca Cola.
They're not going to get in the fight. They're not going
to get in the fight. No, we're the only ones in the fight. And
nobody cares. In fact by the mod of poor donations and
contributions from today's show Yeah, they really don't care you
know what
we got thrown under the bus John?
Say what bitch
well, you write that down. That was two. That's the opening of
the show. That's great. Love that. Thank you. Yeah, it's it's
it's very disturbing. That Ted how much money is just being
made? And
oh, boy station is what it is total exploitation entities
being exploited the straight communities everyone's being
exploited the guilt ridden liberals are being exploited.
The only people you know that don't care one way or the other
seems to be the conservative right wingers. And, and I guess
all these agencies, companies that are profiting they care to
profit.
Just before the show started, I had CNN on the background and
the anti constitutional host known as Fareed Zakaria had on
some Russian artists, I don't know if he was, like an artist,
like a painter or
musician, or it could be a house painter
could be. And I just caught the part where he says, You know, I
speak Russian, and I heard the President's interview and he did
not make any direct connection between gays and paedophiles
that this was completely made up. And Zakaria comes back with
Yes, but you're a personal friend of Vladimir Putin, aren't
you? Like, oh, God,
oh, plea? Guy is such a douche.
That's really bad. That's, you know,
that's actually something I would like to hurt a clip. After
the
show, I'm gonna get I'm gonna pick up some stuff. But for
people who are listening to this programme, you really take it
from me, I've tried, you don't, this is a fight. You don't need
to have that you do not have to go out and fight people and say,
oh, man, Russia's not anti gay because you know what's gonna
happen? This is not going to end pretty for you. Yeah, no, just
give him a copy of the white paper and walk. Give him a copy
of the white paper. And so you might want to read this. But
what's good is whenever you see this, or you hear this, you'll
know, you're like, Okay, I just it's just commercialism. And
you'll know for the next time when you're being invited to do
something that you'd probably being soaked
if you're always being so probably in problem you're
invited to do something you're being so that's it, you're being
soaked done plenty let's play this I got this clip that just
kind of out of the blue is got nothing to do with anything
except just kind of the hypocrisy of it all, which I
think we're kind of talking about. And that is the hypocrisy
of the of the of the Democrat liberal wing of the of the
political spectrum, which has always been against the death
penalty and
ah, yes, I have some clips of this is this Boston bomber?
Yeah, I pulled a couple clips. This is good. Set
it up. Well did apparently. Holder says they should kill
this kid. Yeah. With the death pill empty. Wait me I thought
this this whole group of these. These people that liberal people
involved that run the government are all against the death pill.
Not only but this guy should be executed,
calling for the death penalty against the sole surviving
attacker in last year's Boston Marathon bombings. 20 year old
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is pleading not guilty to killing three
people in the April 15 attack. Another 260 people were wounded
when two pressure cooker bombs went off near the finish line of
the marathon. So and I have older brother was also involved.
He was shot dead by police in a manhunt. Boston's Mayor
personally opposes the death penalty says but he supports the
Attorney General's decision.
As you all know, as a state representative, I voted against
the death penalty. If I were to ask to vote on that today, I
would vote the same way. But this is not my vote to cast on
my decision to make I support the justice system. And I
support the process that that holder put on today.
Now okay, I have questions about that. Do you mind if I have two
short clips
and one? Here your analysis is mine is just dead, as you know.
Well, I have a question or two it is
a question. If the death penalty has been abolished in the state
of Massachusetts, is this now all of a sudden the federal
crime is this now different than where's he going to be tried? I
don't understand how he could break a
federal law terrorism was a terrorist.
Okay. Well,
okay, I think the Feds got involved in so now it takes it
out of the jurisdiction of the Massachusetts State Police are
the ones who caught it. Right. Right. Right. Well, this brings
it into the federal system.
So first of all, as you know, I think if we're gonna kill people
for the death penalty, I want it televised. I want it live. I
hope we use the drugs we use last time with the guys like
can't breathe. Gasping for air for 1520 minutes. He's jerking
around. Yeah, CNN needs something that we know. What do
you mean CNN? This is our show.
Oh, you you're joining us doing a show. This is Helen. Romans.
That's what they did with the Colosseum? Yeah,
I think we're gonna kill people for that. And I can't wait to
see the actual video that they say everyone has seen but no one
has seen the video that is there but no one has ever seen where
they are actually putting the backpacks into the garbage
because even the governor of the state says I haven't seen it but
they tell me it's there I'm reliably informed.
Well here's a question for you. Why don't they just show the
video what's the big deal
you know it's I think it's a shown all the other video I
think it's too frightening for us to see
it's too frightening to watch us that see that? Take a backpack
Yes. minute and drop it into a garbage can us is going to scare
the public
John national security interest. I'm sorry, my friend. We cannot
show this to you national security. But you understand
we're responding to the news that the Department of Justice
is going to be seeking the death penalty against your horse and
if if he is convicted in the Boston bombings attack again
that was last April three people killed more than 260 others
heard this death penalty trial will be the highest profile no
doubt since the Timothy McVeigh trial. Oh, okay. I thought that
was an interesting little combo.
Well, how about this for a thought? Since we realised that
this whole thing is a bunch of bullcrap. They've got him aside
they say okay, let's assume that he was working for somebody some
agency or this is part of an exercise that went astray which
I think was one of our one of our original theories. If you if
you say anything about any of this or even bring up and even
if your profit your defensive Dre brings up the things that we
don't haven't got a tape of you putting the bombs in there
because you know you didn't do it if you say anything we're
going to kill you with the death penalty. So that's what's going
to be on the table if you shut up Yeah, and take this like a
man we will you'll get the death penalty but then we're going to
commute it it's going to go into something into assist the system
is going to work around it you're not going to get the
death penalty and we'll get you actually get you out
Yeah. And while you're in we'll have all kinds of friends for
you
if that's the only reason not yet as leverage let's
let's take it back if you said him to shut up let's take it
back one step. What has happened with everybody involved in this
case so far? The authority we had the entire this was the
largest manhunt in the like US history. They had an entire city
of Boston was shut down. This B and in the theory of this was a
something that went wrong was supposed to happen this way. We
can't have the we cannot have these kids talking their friend
shot in the back of the head by the FBI on armed remember that
y'all Yeah. Oh, we can't have anybody talks. bination in just
this, this clip I need
to charge you this boy alone. Yeah. Okay, ball. I'm at the
back of the top of the head because he was so dangerous. The
FBI. Yeah, well, we attack me to this clip includes that piece of
the there was the mayor or the governor.
I think that was the mayor.
But there's a there's a little clue in here for us about the
death penalty and everyone being all in which is patently not
true. As you
all know, as a state representative, I voted against
the death penalty. If I were to ask to vote on that today, I
would vote the same way. But this is not my vote to cast on
my decision to make I support the justice system. And I
support the process that that holder
notice you almost said Secretary for some reason not quite sure
why but on today,
nine months after the attack that united the city it could
find itself divided over the Attorney General's announcement.
A newspaper poll found that 57% of Boston residents favoured
life imprisonment visual because then I have only 33% wants the
death penalty
3313 And let me ask you something why did this report
mentioned that because it was 57 versus 33 You're missing some
numbers which are not mentioned in the report 57 plus 33 equals
what 90 Thank you where's the rest they don't even mention
that
it will now be up to jurors from the Boston area to decide his
fate. Yeah,
the near 10% undecided
and don't mention the only mentioned the 33% There it is
once again 33 That's the magic we shall see but I agree with
you is shut up or we're gonna kill you. And there's been
tonnes of things that what other code recently got life in prison
but not not the death penalty at a federal level? We have some
states some states are crazy and I Texas like hey, I don't like
you son. You can kill you. That's Texas,
Texas. Texas is kill everybody.
But this is more Boston Massachusetts and and holder has
to come out and celebrate to kill him and kill him. I don't
have any problem killing people. That's right. Eric Holder you
had no problem this President and this attorney general I have
no problem killing people. Every Tuesday let's look at the list
who's on the list. Oh oh well looks like a terrorist and he's
killed him. Blow him blow him up you got this it's where's the
LFS? No. Why do I even ask every time here's the I even asked why
don't even ask where's the outrage
here's a here's an example of kind of would be called I don't
know what even to call this but this is the blaze which is Glenn
Beck's TV network that's uncertain cable systems. And
they have a bunch of
another outfit making a lot more money than we are Oh yeah.
Yeah, but they're selling a lot of stuff they're in the seed
business to really seeds go Yeah, seeds and gold and all the
crap they haven't really got any good advertise it's all a bunch
of low end stuff junk and reporters including a real kind
of a cute funny looking woman blonde who does a lot of the
just to write regular meat puppet stuff and then they have
these panels and but it this is the kind of crap news that's you
know all one is very political. It's all whatever, you know, the
Democrats are all a holes and crazy cities like San Francisco.
So I had to. I looked at this one up. This was classic, this
crack pipe story, which was used on their show just to show you
how crazy and stupid the liberal San Francisco is lost my time
here. But I got a heartwarming story out of San Francisco,
where they are going to try to go through on a plan to hand out
clean clean crack pipes to crack users. It's not unlike needle
exchange programmes you know for I guess people are addicted to
heroin, they get clean needles, but the whole idea behind the
needle exchange programme is to try to circumvent the spread of
AIDS right and blood transmitted diseases. I don't understand the
reasoning for passing out clean crack pipes other than making
crack more enjoyable. San Francisco's try these kinds of
things would say, Bring us your homeless and we'll we'll take in
your house. You get a stipend. By the way, if your home is the
cold season, my
friend it is the cold season. Right. San Francisco has a way
of encouraging a certain type of thing to flock to their city.
Well, that would explain how Nancy Pelosi keeps getting
reelected.
Nancy Pelosi joke is just a great, great example of the kind
of misreporting you get on the sort the sort of alternative.
New two stations. And this is a what's going on a device I want
to explain there is a story there. But it's a small group of
two or three pupils not San Francisco, this city is a group
of people that are, that are making a big fuss about the fact
that crack pipes are actually illegal in San Francisco.
They're totally illegal. And so there's little group of activist
about, you know, just that you don't, we don't even can't even
identify him, it could be one guy is threatening to give away
crack pipes. Because these crack users can't use them. That's it.
It's not some scheme. It's like, you know, it's because of age,
they did the needle exchange, now they're going to do a crack
pipe, pipe exchange, it's illegal. This is like, this is
the worst kind of misreporting based on politics. So you can
needle the other side. And this whole idea of one side versus
the other, which you get with Bill Maher on one side and these
idiots on the other. It's it's annoying. It's, it's it's it's
aversive, I think, is some of the worst kind of thing that
could be on television. I think. I think the blaze should be
ashamed of itself for doing this sort of thing. I know
one of the head writers at the blaze Coach Mike Mike opelka.
And I know him because for many many years, he was the producer
and writer of the morning zoo in New York, and he's and they have
a pretty big operation they they send out show prep every morning
he does that. And it goes to of course the back and you know and
then the the radio guys and but there's also they have
affiliates. Somehow I don't really know the whole structure
of the blaze network, but they have affiliates. And it's and
it's essentially he's doing the same stick as he's always done
afford except instead of pay everybody's the morning Zoo.
It's just just insert Blaze instead of Zoo. It's the same
material.
Yeah. Posing is something else. I'm sorry, this is not on the
radio. I mean, the back has a radio show but the Blazers a tee
to but
here it's the same material. Yeah, the same, same, same
material. It looked this
way it worked for me to work. And hire the fact that they're
making money and they're having a good time. But it's people
should be aware and cautious when they watch these sorts of
things.
Whereas if you really track the news, like we do, you'd have all
of these stories about 2030 It's time for the rundown. I need a
jingle for this actually. It's time for the rundown.
The 2030 rundown. Okay,
this is alright, here we go.
Now, wait, let's start this back up a second. You came up with
this 2030 thing out of the blue or were you given a clue about
2030?
No, I was thinking about a donation level really, which is
you still have $9.30 You still haven't done anything with that.
The next newsletter although I like one, two, triple three
better but like once you triple three
a lot more. times more to be exact. Yeah.
So we came up I was just thinking about just thinking
about numbers. You know, numerology is very interesting
on our show. And I thought, okay, we had y2k, which was the
big disaster, which has hundreds of millions, if not billions, of
dollars of money. And there was some legitimate stuff that had
to be fair, but it wasn't like this Armageddon, then we had
2012 and let people make lots of money off of these bogus
numbers. And then I looked at the numerology, and I thought,
you know, 2030 That seems like a good number. And seemed like the
right amount of years to look forward to something really bad
happening. And now of course, just like 33 people are sending
me 2030 stories. This is the Club of Rome, which is not to be
underestimated. Club of Rome is a super elites, limits to growth
and a study about the future of our planet. I could read the
whole thing to you, but the bottom line is 40 more years
2030 We're all going to be dead. And this was apparently an older
study. 2030 Next Great Depression, MIT study predicting
global economic collapse by 2030. MIT as a couple of those,
and Times of India headline humans will need to Earth's by
2030
By the way, 2030 on my cycles, yeah. Is the equivalent of 1990
at the beginning of a huge economic boom.
That's why we got to be all in on this. And then someone sent
me this f m 2030. Which apparently fruit free known.
He's a Persian guy. Fareed, Fareed Dune, Esfandiari. Adams,
self cryogenically frozen. He was a transhumanist,
philosopher, futurist and consultant
How do you be a consultant as a transhumanist?
I'm just reading consulting.
People are giving you a bad time about being a podcaster in
Austin. Say you're a transhumanist consult any
business cards? Trans human is transhumanist consultant.
I can say it with a straight face to hear them. Try it out on
me.
A Yeah. Hey, good to meet you. Adam curry. Yeah. What do you do
now?
Oh, after I left MTD, I became a transhumanist consultant. Oh,
whoa, that sounds interesting. So I'm cryogenically frozen
as we speak.
FM 2030 Is the game so I guess in 2030s, that's his 100th
birthday. You supposed to come back to life or
something. All right. Time for the depression. Yeah. So all of
all of these will be entered into the registrar at the
2030 club.com getting on it, start making your money. And
then send us a little bit because we're promoting we are
promoting promoting the the total Armageddon of 2030 which
is fact. It's just a fact, along with global cooling from the
Great
Lakes to the Atlantic shores and all the waterways in between it
is an effective one of the coldest January's on record.
That's not even possible
ice jams they make for some spectacular winter scenery. But
as our Kristen Dahlgren reports, they're also causing serious
problems. Some of the nation's most vital waterways.
I did not know that this was taking place. Everything is so
frozen that they have ice breakers out in our our
interior, like in Lake Michigan, Lake Michigan, but also Erie
would be the place.
Yeah, and the Hudson River and ice because it's it's like the
North Pole. The North Sea
is dynamite.
Okay, dynamite. Thank you. And then we have Gina McCarthy. Now
Gina McCarthy is the new head of the EPA, which is, as you know,
an agency that was created by executive order by Richard
Nixon. And they are responsible for doing a lot of things. And
she is talking to some scientists here. And she has a
very, very clear message that
scientists you folks help us understand our world. You help
EPA to meet our mission of public health protection and
environmental protection. I need you now
what Gina McCarthy? Yes. She sounds like one of those elitist
that talked you know like she's reads poetry on her spare time.
She actually has she I think she has a deep, maybe Boston accent
and I've heard her it doesn't this doesn't actually sound very
much like her.
She looks like Jean McCarthy, the guy who ran for
a bit quiet then you can hear that the gotcha in this little
clip
more than ever to speak the truth. I need you to stand up
together with us and explain what the science is telling you
to tell people that science and technology improvements will
allow us to take action moving forward that meets the needs of
this President as he is charged EPA
it needs to meet the needs the needs of this President already.
We need to meet the President's needs Wow. Uh huh. That's press
hardcourts
that would have been clip of the day if it wasn't for no other
clip I
already got no I bought I don't know you got to today you can't
load me with too many clips of the day man it's just not okay.
i You don't rarely Believe me it's not that well, here's a
story breaking out here.
What another dead actor?
Now this is no not yet. No, play the clip guns on Facebook and
tell me what we did. There's a lot of interesting angles to
this little story.
In the United States, you can buy shotguns, revolvers and even
assault rifles on social networks. There are all manner
of ads on Facebook and Instagram, leading web users to
secondhand firearms they can purchase without any background
checks, or having to provide a criminal history record. It's an
alarming phenomenon. Something that Moms Demand Action advocacy
wants to stamp out with the help of an online campaign launched
on Monday. social networkers can show their support under the end
Facebook at gun shows hashtag by addressing messages to the
powers that be at Facebook and Instagram, urging them to stop
allowing this unregulated gun trade where businesses can also
choose from a list of pre written tweets, highlighting,
for example, that if you sell firearms without background
checks, they could fall into the wrong hands.
Yes, this the Moms Demand Action Group that this is about. Yeah.
Which was bought by Bloomberg. Just want to point that out,
which is run by a former Monsanto spokeswoman. This is
what we're talking about.
Yeah. Yeah. Good. And I should mention, this is the second show
where we've caught this, this new kind of model, which is pre
written tweets, because you're an idiot. Yeah. And 144
characters God, you could get lost in such Pro. You need a pre
written tweet.
I think they even have web pages where you just click on it. You
click on the link, and then it fills out a tweet. Yeah. And it
just tweets right for you. Yeah.
Yeah, this is part of the whole, you know, get women to be
gripped Democrats. That's when moms it's always moms
Moms Demand Action. And the woman It was recently rolled
into Bloomberg, mayor's against guns thing, I forget what it's
called Exactly. But it's really one woman who was a PR person
for Monsanto for many years. And then she started her own
consultancy, she changes her name, and then becomes Moms
Demand Action, a very, very, very shallow money making
scheme.
And part two of it just kind of rolls out to kind of just a
couple little extra gotchas in there. Because there's a there's
a third element here, which is kind of dis disconcerning that
that is brought up in the conversation quite a bit
shipping. You may or may not spot it, but I'll explain after
this clip.
Wow, that was sounded really condescending.
No, it's because it's kind of
buried. You may not catch it, but I'll explain it. Well.
I'm surprised you've never
know that the NFL is a bunch of douche bags.
You can't handle that, can you you're really mad about that.
There's also an online petition addressed to the CEOs of
Facebook and Instagram and Mark Zuckerberg and Kevin Systrom is
asking them to change their user policies, and prohibit all sales
and trades of guns on their platforms, and in particular,
private sales between anonymous parties. The campaign
instigators say both platforms should take inspiration from
policies adopted by other sites like online classified ads
platform Craigslist, which explicitly prohibits the buying
and selling of firearms and its terms and conditions. eBay has a
similar ban although it does allow trading of some gun
accessories that only under certain conditions
well, you're gonna have to explain it to me.
Yeah, I know I said it was buried but this came up in the
conversation a number of times when they were talking about
drugs of drug gun legislation Afters one of the shootings I
think the school one whatever, whichever school whatever six
week one was, yeah. And so it was oh, they were very critical
about this they said oh, the gun guys the gun guys are saying
that Joe won't be able to sell his guns to the to Bill who
lives next door that's never going to happen. There's no way
that Bill can sell his guns to his friend will buried in this
story is said right there that they're concerned about people
doing, you know, selling private sales of me selling you my gun.
Without me getting a background check. It was very clear in
there, right? So that's bullcrap. That's what they're
going after they're going after getting the women to vote
Republican and, and making so if you own a gun, that gun has to
be completely monitored. It's where its whereabouts has to be
monitored. Anyway,
well, and so that, of course, is the is the I guess, RFID or
something? There's gonna have to be some way to do that. I kind
of like it. I wouldn't mind. If that were actually law. I'd be
like, I would sell a gun to all of my neighbours for $1 just to
get the mental check on that'd be kind of funny. I got this
check and you're nuts. No one No wonder you never have your
garbage out on the right day.
People forget to put their garbage out.
We got a note here from one of our producers, which I if you
don't mind, I'll just read it on the fly. Listening to the show
that you guys give us some insight into what fentanyl is
Why yes, we could use some insight. And remember that our
producing audience of the no agenda show is incredibly
diverse and that we have big shots in all areas in all areas.
It is a pharmaceutical painkiller that either comes in
the form of a lollipop or a or a time released patch that lasts
72 hours. The lollipop actually tastes like candy but if a drug
dealer tries to sell you a morphine lollipop or a morphine
patch Ah, it's actually fentanyl. An order of strength.
The list goes as follows One, codeine to hydrocodone, which is
beichen. Three oxycodone which is Percocet or oxycontin for
morphine, five hydromorphone, six oxymorphone. Seven, iPhone
seven, fentanyl. He says what I don't quite understand is how
they could cut hair and with fentanyl and keep the drug as
cheap as it is fentanyl is expensive. It's an American
Pharmaceutical and it's expensive. The reason that so
many people overdose is that instead of wearing the patch for
72 hours, they cut it open and eat the drug inside. To give you
an example of how much a person can handle once a lollipop comes
in strength between 412 100 micrograms, and the pad should
be worn for 72 hours typically has about 10 milligrammes. I
prefer to stay anonymous for the CEO. I didn't mention his name.
Okay. This is very funny. So, I mentioned that we have people
who are experts in all fields. Here's his credentials. I prefer
to stay anonymous for this email. Because years ago, I had
a problem with opiates. I'm clean now and have been for
three years good on yet. I would prefer not to have this message
attached to my name. All right. He does have a website that I
won't mention either just not connected to anything. Well,
that's interesting. If it really now
is made in Syria, inexpensively. Why is it so expensive here? I
think it's just the drug. I think it's just gouging.
It must be gouging and the cheap stuff that's flooding. The
streets must be coming in from Syria. Why not? No, it must be
in in fact, check out this little link that I found might
help us Israel's
military chief has said that some of the al Qaeda militants
going to fight in Syria have bases in neighbouring Turkey.
There you go. So why don't we take the we maybe maybe this
chemical weapons is something maybe we misunderstood? Maybe
the chemicals or something else? Well, the
chemical weapon thing is weird because the Navy and I have the
report here that this is not being reported. The only place
you're going to report this or hear about this is on all hands
radio, which comes right out of nav sec. And which is the
Secretary of the Navy he's the only goes has a website and you
are the only person in that viewing audience. Me and another
guy there Nielsen's are not looking
good. They have said guy Oh, you are Secretary of Navy probably
listened to but if you listen to this, this is quite interesting.
Because this the all hands radio, I have the whole the
whole thing. You have to cut it off because I didn't clip it.
Because I didn't have time. But the beginning of the report
talks about what they're going to do. They're going to actually
take the chemicals, put them on some crazy ships that they're
going to have specially outfitted and to supposedly
destroy them at sea. Yeah. And we're worried
about this. Yes. And we're worried about Fukushima.
And I found the whole thing to be peculiar.
This is all hands radio news. I'm Petty Officer. It's real
Morris.
That's the gig for me, by the way, right there. Petty Officer
Adam curry. This is the all hands radio news.
The container ship in the Cape Ray and her crew deployed this
week from Portsmouth Virginia. Cape Ray is part of a DOD
initiative to assist in the neutralisation of Syria's
chemical weapons. SecDef said the deployment is the first of
its kind as chemical weapons have never been destroyed on a
vessel at sea in international waters. The surface Navy is
taking a page from the aviation community by standing up their
own version of the highly selective Top Gun programme.
It goes from story to story. Yes. Have any brakes.
Hey, hold on a second. The Syria thing. I think that was methyl
fentanyl. Not fentanyl but methyl fentanyl
I think is I think is essentially the same product.
It's
an analogue but it's much cheaper to produce. Why wouldn't
we use that? Yeah, I think that's what we're using to cut
heroin.
Well, that's what we're using the heroin Yeah, well, three
methyl fentanyl. three methyl fentanyl was initially sold on
the black market for only short time between at 45. It's high
potency made an attractive target to clandestine drug
producers. 10 to 15 times more potent than fentanyl. There you
go. That's the stuff we want.
Yeah, hell with fentanyl
policies as training wheels son. Do you want your methyl fentanyl
M F for short? Hmm.
So the whole thing is
and and HoHo. Oh my goodness. three methyl fentanyl was also
reported by Russian media as the identity of the anaesthesia gas.
Cola call one using the Moscow theatre hostage crisis in 2002.
It's used as a chemical weapon.
Nice cool. Whoa, well, maybe we don't know what those chemical
weapons are. Maybe it's just A bunch of methyl fentanyl and
there's going to be hauled on the ship and not destroyed.
Exactly.
Yeah. ated blend with heroin. No, no. What
do you mean? It's already unloaded on our shores? Yeah,
why behind?
Why did they dump like, hey, yeah, not those pads and put
that in the water. Yeah, remember the the bin Laden
thing? Wink wink. Wink wink. We're doing one of those. Yeah,
we're throwing it in the ocean. It says right here in the book
of knowledge use as a chemical weapon.
Okay, so we're being confused with this. So the whole thing?
Yeah, this is a complete this is this is an information screw
job. But this is great. So a weapon
Yeah. metal fence of metal fentanyl. You pronounce it?
Yeah. Metal, fentanyl. And this navy ship, which was a container
ship. By the way. If you were Libery. Listen to that report.
Yeah, do they have like a crane and everything and it's a
container ship, meaning it holds a lot of stuff a lot. Yeah.
Wow. It's, it's the knockout gas. Yeah. In winter.
This is very sketchy. Wow.
It makes so much sense. We only take the stuff like hey, man,
this is good stuff. What do we have? And I got some iPhone
threes. That show overboard and you know, get the fuck. Throw
that overboard. And we're welcome to New York harbour.
Welcome to Philadelphia. Welcome to Philadelphia. Welcome to San
Francisco. Welcome to Vermont. Hey, what you got? No, nothing
much. No.
Drop off this one container cargo container. Pow. Tater
ship. Wow.
Yeah, you know, if the world weren't so crazy, and I hadn't
seen so much nutty stuff in almost 50 years, I would I would
literally turn this podcast off and roll my eyes and go turn it
off and scream. These guys are morons. Like no, no. Instead,
we're gonna leave you on this high note so to speak. Oh, yay.
I want to talk about the Central African Republican next Thursday
show because all hell's breaking loose there and nobody wants to
talk about it. Looking forward to that our economic hitmen said
we're the only place that he can find anything. Anybody talking
about it? It's it's a huge humanitarian problem.
We will be talking about that and of course celebrating the
Seahawks win. From your tax dollars all right, John, are you
watching the game at home? You're going somewhere?
No, no, it's not him. I mean, I'm gonna watch it at home.
Alright, by golly, slip a few of the commercials. Probably not
actually. Think about it. It's gonna cook a meal and watch the
nice. I'm gonna hang out with Miss Mickey. We're gonna watch
the game. Let me fun. We both enjoy and then with Tituss.
