I'm looking at this here brain. What do you think? Adam curry,
John C. Dvorak,
Sunday, October 15 2017. This is your award winning get my nation
media assassination episode 973
This is no agenda
27% Day trainer 30% podcast and 100% broadcasting from the
future live from downtown Austin chaos capital drone Star State
in the Claudio in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry
and from Northern Silicon Valley, where I'm pitching on
fumes of John C. Dvorak. Greg Levin buzzkill
is the phrase from the chaise not I'm running on fumes.
Well, this was a reference to Verlander who, who they said was
pitching on fumes whose Verlander it was. Yeah, who's
Verlander? Oh,
wait, sports reference. Oh, okay. I'm sorry.
Verlander? Who is pitched the hood complete game
saw it last night? actually saw some Oh, that didn't see that
one. No. You I swear to God, yours cubs? Yeah.
That was good game. They're both good games. Surprisingly, both
of them.
We have a guest protocol initiated here in the common law
condo. Yeah, Tina's sister and her husband are here. From the
Chicago area. So big Cubs fans.
Love the games weren't on against each other. So you could
have watched both here but
we also had to go drinking that from Chicago. So
Oh, yeah. Chicago, equals drink and
equals beer. Exactly.
Well, it's funny. Dimitri enjoyed the local brews. There's
a lot of good.
Yeah, we went we went to, we went to this place called
Lazarus. Which is a great name because in Holland, if you're,
if you're completely Blotto drunk, they say you're Lazarus.
Which makes sense from the biblical meaning of the word
because the Lazarus was resurrected from the dead. So
you're dead as Lazarus. Yeah. And we had a beer flight. The
things I learned.
She had a flight of the beard. I did.
I did indeed. And it was good boy, because that was all right.
Thanks, John. All right, Chicago. Just Chicago. Okay.
Don't ask questions about Chicago.
Fine. Any beer? That was any good? Oh, yeah. There always
been consensus beer was that this is the best vow?
No, there's never a consensus now. There you go. Okay, well,
stuff happening.
Yeah, there's a few things
media wise. Lots of stuff happening, actually.
Yeah, media wise, you want to go into the Weinstein thing?
Because?
Well, I mean, that's that's what there's so much to let me use
the phrase unpack in hurricane Harvey, we forgot to see this
obligated
to me. I then I found at least two Charriol cartoons where they
were they
were We were
sure which hurricane you're talking about.
Exactly. Exactly. I know. There's there's a number of
things. I think the the commonality that that exists, is
using this and well actually, I've heard to using the Harvey
the hurricane Harvey ordeal for political means and racial
means. I mean, it's just it's beautiful. You know, whatever it
is. Just remember our president sucks. Yeah. And actually, let
me just play a couple of these. What I'll do, what I'll do
first, I'll actually I'll go backwards. Jane Fonda was on CNN
with Christiane Amanpour. It's very worthwhile listening to the
longer piece, but we can do that later. I just want to play the
kicker, this was at the end of her interview.
I mean, Donald Trump, is we have a man who was president, who
does these things. And what is what kind of a message does that
say, unfortunately, that counteracts a lot of the good
that we're doing, because a lot of men see well, our president
does it and he got elected, even after people discovered that he
was an abuser. So I'm just gonna go ahead and do what I want to
do. It's unacceptable. We can't ever forget that. We have to
stand up to them. Yes.
By the way, this is one of the elements of the Trump cycle.
Yeah. Oh, yeah. It's spot on to spot on. And I think that the
one that follows is Russia. So I think there's more Russia stuff.
And I think I think you're right, let's go to Hillary.
We don't have the cycle down completely. Because then what
comes after Russia. But we have all the elements we just don't
have the order.
Yeah, well, let's stick with this for a second. Stay
with this guy. Keep going.
Alright, here is Hillary Clinton, who took it one step
further. You probably saw this was aired a
lot family lives here. You're from Puerto Rico you use shown
an island down to four months before the storm hit.
I'm sorry, what is that? How did I get that?
That's odd. That is Island.
No, that's that's very strange. No, that is Geraldo. How did
that get in there under that? Oh, my second what happened
here? Oh, that was how did that get remains? Oh, well, while I'm
looking for the appropriate clip, let's listen to one minute
of Hollywood thanking Harvey
Harvey Weinstein, Bob Weinstein. God bless him. Harvey Weinstein,
who believed in us and made this movie Harvey and Bob Weinstein,
Harvey Weinstein. Thank you, Harvey Weinstein, especially
Harvey.
I want to thank Harvey and Bob Weinstein of thinking of you
Weinstein, Harvey Weinstein, Harvey, who first took me on 20
years ago. I would like to thank Harvey Weinstein, Harvey
Weinstein, who had the guts the courage that commitment
especially Harvey Weinstein, a man of dedication and vision and
Harvey Weinstein, well, listen, so Harvey and Bob Weinstein, you
also break my heart with your uncentered passion. Harvey
Weinstein, Harvey Weinstein, Harvey Weinstein,
Harvey. And Harvey and Bob Weinstein to you all the Harvey
Weinstein wasting the ivy Winston company. Okay, thank
you, Harvey Weinstein, for putting your heart behind this
film and shining the light on this. We really like to share
this with you. I want to thank the mash Booker Weinstein.
Robert Williams at the end, so I don't know what happened to the
Hillary clip. But that doesn't mean she What she said is we now
have admitted sex assault or in the White House. That was her
the main thing which is kind of disputable of the evidence that
he admitted he's a sexual assault are
all the women lining up like they are in this deal. Let's go
back. I was.
Just got another one here. I got a few more. This is the ABCs
2020 things for some Friday. This had a double kicker. And
this was the special that had a double kicker in
a culture of silence exists because it is a scary thing to
go public. But that culture is changing.
In fact, a kind of cultural climate change is underway. Oh
nice. Weinstein walks the Oscars red carpet. equally powerful
media Titans are suddenly being toppled for allegations of
sexual misconduct. Bill Cosby, Fox
CEO Roger Ailes and Blake today word of a major change in Fox
News, Bill O'Reilly,
Bill O'Reilly fired by Fox News.
Even a 10 year old recording of a boastful future President
Trump has come to light your star they let you do it. You can
do anything?
Yes, it's beautiful is beautiful. It's all politicized.
Fantastic.
Well, I have a couple of inches. And then I'm going to slip this
clip in because of what she just said. Which is almost this
culture of silence, or oh, oh, no, you will here's how this is
the HW Harvey Levinson tale. Harvey Levinson was on Hannity
and he told this story. And this is an example of what
contradicts everything that we keep hearing about holds a
culture of silence.
Yeah, I just don't know which clip it is. I'm sorry. It's very
hard. HW
Harvey Levinson.
Yeah, I just don't oh, here it is. I'm sorry. Okay. brain fart.
Got
it. Everybody talked about it. People even joked about it. But
nobody spoke out about it. What can you tell us?
Well, I can tell you a lot right now. We just put this up on the
website. And I think this is really significant. Angie
Everhart, a model and an actress. Went on TMZ live today.
And she told us a story about the Cannes Film Festival and she
was on a boat. And she was sleeping in a cabin even with
John,
if you're interested. I have her story. But he's about to tell
unless there's something else that he says it may be more
interesting to listen to Angie's words herself. Okay, put her on.
First of all my, my hands are shaking. Um, you know, this
isn't really easy to talk about. It's, I was at the Cannes Film
Festival. I was on a friend's boat. Harvey walked in, walked
in front of me. Took his pants down. did his thing exited on
the floor? You know what I mean? pulled his pants back up. said
you're a really nice girl. Don't tell anybody about this and
left. So I told everybody about it. I said I'm gonna you know, I
mean, it was a lot longer than that. And I you know, he was
blocking the door and couldn't get out. I'd rather not say
which year because I don't want to talk about which boat I was
on. And I don't need to talk about that. No. Actually, I had
just arrived from America. I had Ted jetlag, I was in the bed
sleeping. When I woke up to him above me. He came in actually
with another girl. And she laughed. And he said So sit up
there, they both stood there. And I was like, I couldn't get
out of bed because I was wearing just a little t shirt and
nothing else. So I was stalking me they were in front of the
bed. It was just it was just terrible. It was a terrible
moment. You know, I told my husband about this. When I first
met him. And when all of this came out, he was like, you know,
you have to come out, you have to tell people this. I'm just
glad that this is because when I talked about it before, nobody
listened. Now, people are listening. And not just for me,
I'm glad that people are listening. So that doesn't
happen anymore. Because it's not okay. I you know, they say it's,
you know, hearsay, it's my word against your word. I tell people
on the boat, I told people at the dinner I was at, and
everybody was like, oh, that's just Harvey. People have known
this about Harvey for more than a decade. There isn't a single
person who is anybody in this business that doesn't know that
Harvey Weinstein has been like that. If they know Harvey, they
know he's been like that, you know, it's a very scary thing in
Hollywood to to come out and talk like this about somebody
who's so powerful as Harvey Weinstein. He, he's, he got
stories crushed, and he can crush you, you know, he didn't
physically touch me. But he physically touched a lot of
girls from what I hear, and I feel so bad for those girls.
I think we both picked up on the same thing, John, that this is a
whole nother industry which I personally have always had a
beef with. Because Andrew Everhart is not an actress.
She's a model very, very different and that that can of
worms needs to be opened up the agencies. And you know, why
wouldn't she say What boat she was on? I think that's
important. I think we actually minds a
lot of these women will tell the story
won't I know what boat it was? Okay. That's right everybody
Well, that didn't work
and I did. Just it just needs a little production.
The don't give us specifics. There's a lot of nonspecific
stuff but the the point that was being made here and Harvey goes
on and on and pounds at home with Hannity, which is that when
people went around and told everybody like this woman, she
told everyone at the dinner she told everybody she just couldn't
stop talking about it because she was so offended. And I'm of
course my takeaway from the whole thing is like your damn
door.
Yeah, exactly. That's another
anyway. So but here's the but she, you know, she told
everybody and everybody knew it. Which brings us back to Meryl
Streep. Okay, you know, who claims I don't have a camera?
Clip but she we played her the other day. And she's I don't
know, but I'm befuddled? I never heard. Yes. So but let's go back
to this is on democracy. Now. They dug up some woman who's a
professor at Colorado University. And this took place
in 1984. When Harvey and Bob had just started their company. This
is when the whole thing I guess, Harvey when he was doing music
production, which is another can of worms business. Yeah, he must
have picked up these habits because when she it's kind of
hard to hear this and Amy's intros a little long. But this
is the HW in 1984 story 1984
and 1984. When she was an aspiring actress, Her work
focuses on the psychological consequences of the sexual
objectification of women and girls. Tomi on Roberts, let's
begin with you. We're going to talk about the work you now do
on a sexual objectification and girls and women. But let's begin
with what happened to you more than 30 years ago, in 1984. How
did you come in contact with Harvey Weinstein?
Well, the story, the stories are beginning to sound monotonous,
right. And chillingly familiar, I was waiting tables. I was a
student at Smith College and several friends and I had
decided to spend the summer in New York City pursuing our
dreams. And so we sublet an apartment and I was waiting
tables at a restaurant and that's where I met both Bob and
Harvey Weinstein. They were relative newcomers on the scene,
explained to me their new company Miramax, and pretty soon
I was driven to believe that I might be someone who could
audition for a movie that they were going to be writing and
directing. And it would have been the first movie they were
writing and directing here in the United States. And so I
thought, I think I thought to myself, such a new company might
not might not take such a new unknown person for granted and
so I decided that I would try to audition for that movie. So
throughout the course of the summer, I would receive scripts
and script updates. I did visit the office on an occasion. Yeah.
God, yes.
She goes, gets a course it goes right back to the same MO. Yeah.
But but which brings me to the point of Bob Weinstein says yet
he only knew about this two years ago. You're Yeah. Now, are
you kidding me? Of course, of course, that's a lie. These
people are unbelievable liars. This is wrapped the subject and
you know what the ending is this that this story.
And then I was invited to what I believe was Harvey's apartment.
And then my expectation, of course, was that others involved
in the movie would be there as well. And that turned out not to
be the case. And it was in this down in a rather darkened
hallway that I discovered him in the bathtub. And that encounter,
as you might imagine, was petrifying to a 20 year old. I
sort of stood there frozen. And Mr. Weinstein was quite calm
about trying to explain to me that, if I would at least take
my top off, this would demonstrate to him that I wasn't
going to be shy about doing so in front of the cameras, the
movie was likely to have topless scenes. Looking back, as I've
said, in several interviews now, and I'm slightly ashamed to
think that the only way I could imagine getting out of there was
not running, but rather politely, sort of self effacing
ly apologizing for the fact that I didn't feel comfortable with
that. And so I did eventually exit and found a payphone called
my boyfriend. And basically, through my acting aspirations in
the wastebasket,
had actually gone back to one of your tryouts your auditions that
where they'd said that you were moving forward, and they told
you they weren't interested anymore. Weinstein's Come on.
It's I don't know if it was Weinstein's company. It was a
casting agent. At the time, I was so frightened because of the
previous experience that I convinced one of my housemates
to come with me, a rather larger young man. And once we got
there, it was pretty clear that Harvey himself, neither
heartbeat nor Bob, were going to be there. And the casting agent
was a very kind, older woman who just sort of said to me, you
know, you're not getting this part, right.
Yeah, surprise, surprise.
So this begs the question, which I think I have one explanation
for I'm not sure if you do. Have why now? Well, we see this
started in 1984. It's pretty obvious has been going on people
that everybody knows about the Wii U, everybody did all the
material from the open jokes. You know, they're obsessed with
the McFarlane material. Ready, rock real, right.
It's all there. It's all there. Well, the the obvious easy
answer, which you came up with, on the last show, I like very
much is that this was out of control. And Bob Weinstein
decided to do something about it. It still does not
necessarily explain the timing of it. And particularly coming
from the New York Times, although we know that in
television news, they want it to be in the New York Times first
and then everybody that's okay. Yeah.
Everybody mentions that. Yeah. The and Harvey Levinson talks
about fact he says that Weinstein is going to sue his
brother tried to get back in the company. Doug wouldn't surprise
me. He says because he was wrongly fired. He says there's
apparently was a clause in his contract. This is sad. A
pervert. Yeah, he could.
He could be a pervert. He would just have to pay fines and a
fine and any hush money that the company had to pay. Well, I have
not seen the contract, but I will believe it. I believe you
could find it. No. And I heard I heard something interesting. Do
you remember the Fappening when we had Hollywood actresses, it
was a whole dump of sexy semi and nude photos suggestive? You
know, Jennifer Lawrence was one of them. Yeah, she would be
well, if you go back and you look at the you look at 4chan,
where the Fappening unfastened? The the or one of the insiders
at the time was saying hey, this is coming from one Hollywood
mogul from one phone. And the thinking is it could have been
Harvey's phone. Which he had, you know, he received nice
little messages from his his potential actresses.
It's possible. Yeah,
it sounds very
possible. Well, anyway, so I did one one. explanation that I
liked which came just came out, which was in PJ media, and this
guy's name, the writer, Simon, who's a Hollywood screenwriter,
I think he's done some other other stuff. He says, Oh, he
theorizes that the reason and this makes sense when you hear
it, because the New York Times was involved. Yeah, the New York
Times is big Democrat, kind of propaganda machine,
they would not do it. Without reason. I agree.
The reason is, Hillary. And I think that that blow up between
Hillary and Bill as part of this, they think that Hillary's
off the rails, she, this book makes it look like she wants to
run again, they see it as a nightmare scenario, having her
run again, at age 80, or whatever, she's gonna be 75. And
they had to do what they had to do, they had to throw Harvey on
it, despite his connections under the bus, because this
brings out that connection between Hillary and Harvey and
those photos. putting her hands on his chest, hold
on, let me just play the it's about a minute 10 of the Hillary
interview thing was a BBC interview. Actually,
I was shocked and appalled, because I've known him through
politics, as many Democrats have. He's been a supporter.
He's been a funder. And you know, for all of us, for Obama,
for me, for people who've run for, you know, for office in the
United States. So it was it was just disgusting. And the stories
that have come out, are heartbreaking. And I really
commend the women who have been willing to step forward now and
tell their stories. But I think it's important that we not just
focus on him and whatever consequences flow from the
stories about his behavior, but that we recognize this kind of
behavior cannot be tolerated anywhere, whether it's in
entertainment politics. Now, after all, we have someone
admitting to being a sexual assault or in the Oval Office,
there has to be a recognition that we must stand against this
kind of, you know, action that is so sexist, and misogynistic.
And this depends upon women coming forward and have the
courage to come forward. And you're in your book, the three
women brought onto stage by Trump attacking your husband,
and you kind of dismissed the comps was not the right thing to
do. Are you sure about that?
Well, yes, because that had all been litigated. I mean, that was
the subject of a huge investigation, as you might
recall, in the late 90s. And there were in fact, illusions
drawn, and that is clearly in the past. But it is something
that has to be taken seriously, as I say for everyone, not just
for those in entertainment right now.
There you go.
Well, here's another little add on then. I heard that interview
too. I sure did. Flip it. She She kind of feigns naivete in
this whole thing. And I think that's why right now and on this
show, we're playing clips that are have now been presented
showing that this has been going on for a long time. A and B.
Everybody knew that means Hillary knew. Yes. And that's
the counter thing. You got to do something counter Hillary
because they first they blow this out. And then Hillary's got
all these bullcrap excuses. They are trying to get HILLARY OUT OF
THE WAY, she won't go away. She's a nightmare to the
Democrats. They had to do this.
Then if they decided that it was this important and Harvey was
the right fish to fry. They have to have something else. It's got
to be a one two, you can't it's not enough. It's just not
Hillary slick. There's gotta be a one, two, there's got to be
something wait. Meanwhile, there is a lot of stuff going on
particularly in while in the film industry. This of course
came out
Amazon put it studios chief Roy price on an immediate leave of
absence, following allegations that he harassed a producer and
ignored an actress his claim of sexual assault by Hollywood
producer Harvey Weinstein. The Hollywood Reporter reported that
a producer on one of Amazon shows that price allegedly
lewdly proposition to her in 2015. The Amazon producer did
not immediately respond to a request for comment. Also,
actress Rose McGowan wrote on Twitter that she told price that
Weinstein assaulted her, but that price did nothing. Price
could not immediately be reached by Reuters. He declined to
comment to The Hollywood Reporter. A spokeswoman for
Harvey Weinstein said any allegations of non consensual
sex are unequivocally denied by Mr. Weinstein price has been
integral to Amazon's movie business. The studio picked up
three Oscars this year under his helm is removal creates
uncertainty about its direction just as Amazon vests and four
and a half billion dollars in video content this year and it's
always so fun in Hollywood all the studio heads Oh, they have
no idea what's gonna happen Nah ha. Oh, what are they gonna do
without the studio head? I have a couple of things on this. I
want
but I want to add a little color to the thing with McGowan.
Because she told Brooke price according to the Twitter back
and forth that she did her account was suspended for. He's
she says I was raped by Weinstein. And he says there's
no evidence of that. And she says, I'm the evidence.
Yeah. But got a note from one of our producers at Texas Baron
actually, which I'd like to share with the with the group.
You might enjoy this because you know, this is we have lots of
stories from Hollywood, but how about something from our own
little environment, a Harvey Weinstein story, that I think
it's quite salacious and nice. This is 2009 Our Baron and Texas
had a unique circumstance they run with Harvey Weinstein. He's
said I'll try and keep it short here. But he was on the lake
during spring break to promote an alcohol party related product
that he had developed as a side business. He had a wakeboarding
boat and a crew of his friends and promo models. It just
happened to I'm going to switch to him now just happened to be
when we were filming Parana when they were filming Parana 3d And
we were approached to use our boat and people's in the party
scenes to how could I say no, the Weinstein Company was one of
the production companies that dirt dirt actually threw a party
for the cast and extras one night he said pathetic flop the
cops are called by 11pm due to poor choice of neighborhood
slash house despite a pretty chill event and shut it down. My
friends and partners and I took it upon ourselves to throw a
real party for everyone at our at our rental house. Proper
planning and neighbor networking produced a party of epic
proportions that went until two hours after sunrise. Most of the
younger cast were there and Eli Roth you know Eli Roth is that
he's he was the Bear Jew in what was the Nazi Tarantino Nazi
movie? With Brad Pitt? Okay, and but he's a horror director. I
know that I know him from my life. That's why I think this
story is better. Most of the younger cats were there and Eli
Ross spent a lot of time trying to make out with my girlfriend
who was now my wife but he had to settle for a BJ from some
random party goer apparently on the back of my damn boat while I
was still covered in fake blood from the set Come to think of
that's probably why Eli was drawn to it. Harvey Weinstein's
showed up with the director and the directors pa once the party
was well in swing house was packed to the gills club music
thumping skinny dippers in the pool and plenty of dark corner
shenanigans by this time, a frightening perfect environment
for a creeper and epic creeper he was we immediately noticed
them as we were looking to promote a product and keeping
your eyes peeled for the VIPs unfortunately quickly started
using our product as an excuse to creep on random young girls.
In short order. The complaints of groping and strong uninvited
advances started to roll in. He was even trying to grow girls
right in front of their boyfriends. With my Eagle Eye
View as ad hoc DJ at a raised table. It was all very obviously
a power trip for him. I brought the lights up and use my
megaphone to thank Weinstein Roth and Asha, the director and
their staff for creating a fun experience for all of us extras
and in doing so pause everything long enough to create an opening
for one of my business partners to sidle up to to sidle up to
Weinstein and talk his ear off to protect all the women from
his advances. It worked perfectly clear and clearly
scaring him off as he left the party shortly after. couldn't
count how many thank yous we had after he left. He left a real
stain that took some serious PARTY PEOPLE effort to wash off
the crowd.
Nice but everybody was unaware
do nobody knew nobody knew. Nobody knew
especially Hillary now
one troubling thing is part of how this is being spun into
again more hate against men. And unless you want to do something
in the interim, this will be the last thing I have I just want to
play this couple of minutes of Jane Fonda with a with
Christiane on import because, you know she I think she does
think like a lot of women certainly in the United States
UK.
I'm always highly entertained but whatever Fonda does.
I'm glad it's coming out. I'm I'm so proud of those fellow
actors that are speaking up and I know that it's taken a long
time. It's a very very very hard thing to do. You don't get any
preface preface find a claim she didn't know anything.
What she'll say in this interview is she didn't know
anything until a year ago and she'll explain why she didn't
know anything. It's it's a little more expanded than just
the headline we got. Yeah,
I know. I heard this too. And it's bull crap, but okay, this
is bull crap. It's
a very, very, very hard thing to do. You don't get anything out
of it as the person who's been victimized, but it's important
that it come out. But you know, let's not think that this has
some unique horrific. This goes on all the time. In Hollywood is
male entitlement in Hollywood and everywhere in offices and
businesses all over the world. Yeah,
exactly. She's completely right because at Department of
Homeland Security Janet Napolitano was abused. Oh, wait
a minute. She's not a man. Well, she was abusing the men on this
desk Yeah, moving their desk and moving the desks into the
bathroom go work there. Shut up horrible.
Man covered up scandal in that I did I've ever seen.
And it was published in New York Post kept writing about it until
no one just no one cared. There's no celebrators who came
out, no one said This is horrible. Yeah, it happens.
In bars and restaurants and stores. Women are assaulted,
abused, harassed, and seen for just being sexual objects there
for a man's desire instead of as whole human beings.
Did that ever happen to you?
What is you know, get a kick out of her. She was like, promote
herself as a sex pot. Barbarella Barbarella. Rep. Barbarella and
had a rib a couple of ribs removed. So she got more.
Is that true shape? Is that true?
I think it is true. And she was looking at the work she's had
done that she got irked about when Kelly even mentioned it.
Yeah, I mean, give me a break lady,
as whole human beings.
Did that ever happen to you? It has
happened to me. It has. I only met Harvey when I was old. And
Harvey goes for young because that's more
vulnerable. She certainly knows him. You know, but
it's it's very, very common. Bill Cosby, you know, another
example of Hollywood but you know, Dominique Strauss, Kahn,
Strauss Kahn.
Oh, yes, that's Dominique Strauss Kahn, how could we
forget? You know what, while you're naming other people from
other industries, what about Al Gore humping? The poor massage
lady like a poodle? Isn't a time to call him out? Isn't it time
Hello?
Things saying you see anything that you might want to massage?
Yeah, Al Gore. Come on, but isn't a time for him to
email or for Seamus, for example. He's not in Hollywood.
But this. You know, this is not unique. This goes on at the most
horrendous high levels. What do you think
Hollywood men should do right now studio heads leading actors,
because it can't just be the women who have to be brave
enough, especially, as you say most of them were young
fledgling careers.
That's right. Let's go to another Hollywood man. How about
Terry Crews.
That's actor Terry Crews in one of his old spice ads. He says
the Harvey Weinstein scandal is giving him PTSD reminding him of
when an unnamed Hollywood executive sexually assaulted him
now in a 16 part tweet yesterday who said quote my wife and I
were at a Hollywood function last year and a high level
Hollywood executive came over to me and groped my privates in
quote, he went on to say if he had he, if if he had have
reacted how he wanted to this would be the headline quote, 240
pound black man stomps out Hollywood honcho and
wow, that's your excuse. Because you're afraid of being of
creating a racial storm. Fuck you. Fuck you, cruise. Yes. Back
to Back to Jane.
We have to be helped by men. It's important to know that not
all men are predators. Thank you. There are good men and the
good men have to stand up and defend us and, and embody other
ways of being. We have to believe the women who come
forward we have to speak out. I found out about Harvey about a
year ago. And I'm ashamed that I didn't say anything right then
why didn't you? You're so bold.
You've so bold and so brave. C'mon, Hanoi.
I was not that bold.
Okay, she's honest, she wasn't that bold. So you're also part
of the problem?
Because I guess it hasn't happened to me. And so I didn't
feel it was my place. Did you know
that? Well, she's admitting the exact problem.
One of the women who has pitching about
an out Rosanna Arquette told me and you know, it came as a shock
and a great disappointment. This male entitlement. What did she
say to you?
This isn't male entitlement Hold on a second. That's the other
thing is going on with this. I'm generalize Yeah, I'm this guy's
just a pervert. Give me a break.
I have to say, because I and I'm sure that the women in your life
say the same thing. Yes, women get harassed all the time. in
all kinds of workplaces not denying that at all, but not by
all it is a big my dad was like
this gotta hated the shit. There's a bunch of guys I've
told stories I hate this. I think guys in the air pollution
industry likes to arrest waitresses, but did you
harassing and then poking around and doing one thing or is
different than a guy who comes to a party that you just read
the synopsis of comes to a party and makes such a scene they
everyone's thankful when he leaves is not a classic,
anything? He's a singular, perverted douchebag. Yeah.
Yes, but there are a lot of these types of douchebags. And
it's not entitlement. It's, it's something else. It's passed on
douchebaggery. And then you can say there's a lot of them, which
seems to be part of the litany, I think you've been suckered
into saying, what about that party that you're just
discussed? There was a lot of people at that party. How many
of them were Harvey Weinstein? Like, none? Just him. And I
think if you generalize about Hollywood, I don't think you're
gonna find too many. Oh, yeah, there's a guy who makes a pass
at some wine or door who grabs a breast now, and again, we have a
clip of something we wanted to use, because it has a nice
little phrase in it from the list, which you might want to
get to, hey, I'm
gonna open up. But it's
just like, you know, it's, I think it hurts the cause,
especially the cause that women have to generalize that this is
some sort of male entitlement. This is there's no entitlement
here. This guy isn't off the rails perv period,
a total agreement of just saying that there is a ace a large
group of men who are not the same as Weinstein, but
definitely us there.
I don't know how large of the group is how many do you know?
Bro, I'm gonna start with my own father. I'll start right there.
Okay, you got one. I know two guys have two guys. And I know a
lot of people but I only know of two guys. And it's not that you
don't know about these guys, because it gets around
everything does in these communities. In whatever
community you're in, whether you're writing community, tech
community, whatever it gets, the word gets around. Some people
never get the word for some reason, I suppose it could
happen to anybody. But generally speaking, it's a it's a guy you
can point to, it's not like an epidemic.
Okay, it's all right. Um, I'm just trying to show some
sensitivity towards what's really happening in the male
female world is just what it is. But it's not like Weinstein, I
totally agree. And I too, am marked by you know, male
entitlement that is absolute. I mean, yeah, I don't like it.
That is a generalization, which is just incorrect.
What did she say to you?
I want to leave that okay. To her, um, bribe, which, okay.
Because they say it was an open secret in Hollywood.
I didn't realize that. But I believe that it's apparently it
was so common that everybody must have known. And of course,
these kinds of men. It's not. It's not only sexual predation.
These tend to be men who treat other people not Well, I mean,
not people they need, not people like Meryl Streep, or me and my
old age, but you know, he didn't treat the people who worked with
him. Well
is the first time I've heard her talk about how old she is.
Twice It was beyond that. She said old age old age.
She went very far with that.
He was he was just not a nice person, although he could be
nice when he needed to. And this is very common among these kinds
of men. It's a mindset. Well, who
else then darlin? You said
it happened to you? Obviously not with Harvey Weinstein. But
but in the in your you.
Let me give you an example. I very first French film that I
made. The director didn't speak very good English. And he flew
to LA to pitch me the story, which was hard for me to even
understand what the story was. But I remember him saying to me
when I was 20 he said to me, you know, in the movie, your
character has to have an orgasm, and I really need to know what
kind of orgasms you have.
I gotta try this one myself. Does that really work? I'm a
French director. I have a perfect role for you. But I must
understand you have the nature of your orgasm. So if we can try
it in
so he you know he wanted me to sleep. Subtle.
Yes, that is unbelievable. railing. Oh, well.
I was I have a quick interrupt, interrupting type story. I was
hanging out with a kind of an impresario of nightclubs, I
think kind of Boston mob Next base of story
I have not hoard hoard hoard heard I'm like I'm never bored.
I've never heard it in my life guy
makes the comment. The guy makes the comment. Yeah, well, I
wasn't getting laid much until I learned how to lie to women.
Oh, I've read this quote where the hell that that Oh, you have
told me this privately. Maybe that's probably Hey, yeah.
And I always was taken aback by that. And then I realized when
the first time I went to New York City, I was hanging out
with them when they had all this unbelievable bar scene up on the
upper first and second. And it was just about this when the
bars are open. It was a city that has never slept and all
that that went away very quickly, but, but it was true
until about 1985. And I remember ever seeing these guys in the
bar with these pickup lines that were just how dumb are you to
believe this person? They were all casting guys. A lot of it
had to do showbiz. They had phony cards, you know, that said
they were executives at CBS or whatever. And they were all
trying to just bed these women. And it was just a just a kind of
a kind of a snake pit of liars. And which then when they met the
guy from Boston, that's when I realized what the hell's going
on everywhere, right.
And we don't have to finish their club ship. But she but
what happens is she didn't sleep with him got the roll. Anyway,
the guy was nice. And she never reported him. Because
she says she didn't sleep with him. Do we know that for a foul?
I'm
not gonna die doesn't matter. He tried a sexual advance and she
should have called him out.
That's, that's different than a guy sneaking into a cabin and
jerking off and
exiting on the floor business. I mean, this is that these whole
Mo is very odd. He's very sick.
Yeah. Yeah. And it's written into his contract, and he's
gonna get his job back. He probably no one's going to talk
much about that, because this is all about burning Hillary. And
you're probably right. Because Hillary is so doggone she thinks
she's going to run for president again. And she's going to ruin
it for everybody. If she tries because she's got the mechanism.
She got the machine. It's still in place. And she's got the
women.
So did you think that maybe she was banking on Harvey, that that
was that she was really banking on it like bank banking on
Harvey.
I wouldn't be surprised. They claimed that some report says
she at least received at least 1.4 million during this last
campaign and it's hilarious Bundler. He's an he's a bundler.
She is I but I believe you're right, she is going to have to
drop another shoe because you can't take somebody out like
that with one one punch.
And there's such a close connection between Weinstein the
Weinstein's and the Clintons. It's, it's, you know, close.
Like next door neighbor's close.
So they got to have some milk. Okay, well, that's
I liked that. I liked that as as a theory. We need to be on the
lookout for clues.
For the next thing is issuing a spot in advance. That'd be cool.
I'm done with Harvey. Are you done everything good with the
Harvey Meister? Hurricane Harvey?
Yeah, I think so. I got one more clip, but I'm not gonna do this.
Why don't we take a quick break and get a look at or take a look
or take a listen to the week's news. As brought to you by NPR,
this is the most important stories and see if you can find
the common denominator. amongst this wrap up of the most
important news of the week. A heck
of a week the President cutting health subsidies for the poor
making some big changes on the Affordable Care Act front by
executive order. decertifying. Today's the day for that we're
told the Iran deal smacking around Puerto Rico a little bit
talking about helping them as well, but some tough language
there. Senator Bob Corker Republican saying Trump risks of
starting World War Three with his public language and comments
the Trump I'm facetious, I guess, but still challenging the
Secretary of State to an IQ test after the reports that Rex
Tillerson called him a moron. Trump threatening the Free Press
in very specific terms. We'll talk about why but the kind of
remarkable language there. We've got the Clean Power Plan
scrapped this week, California burning and all of us with that
on our minds. And of course, yes, the Harvey Weinstein sexual
harassment, assault, rape. You can join us this hour. What do
you think will the President's moves killed? Obamacare and
where does DC
is that all the news NPR has is just Trump Trump, Trump, Trump
Trump hell of a week with Trump. Nothing else in the world
happening? Nothing. Nothing to see here. Their agenda is
showing
it's unbelievable that is the worst rundown I've ever heard if
you want to do it just general news stuff.
It's all there is nothing else nothing else to talk about.
More on IQ test all the just all the all the memes. It's great.
Ah, wow, where'd you get that?
That's an NPR.
What is that? Where's the words they printed? I never heard that
rundown. Oh, he
does that it's onpoint Tom Ashbrook. Yeah, the one of our
producers listens to NPR religiosity. And as always
sending me a rundown so I can I can literally pick and choose.
Oh, okay. You want to you know, we want to pull that and you run
it every Sunday. That's much better. This week bullcrap that?
Yeah, you're right. You want to have his rundown? The motion
rundown. is dynamite. Most important is this or is it we
Trump?
Yes. Yes. Well, there's more hate Trump's love stories. Let
me see. George Lopez, it's finally happening. We knew it
would. George Lopez was at a gala before I guess when when it
never really happened with me. But whenever you're asked to do
something at a nonprofit, if you are some form of actual star and
like a D liberty from MTV, or worse a podcast or you get paid
for these events, and it was a gala for juvenile diabetes in
Denver last week, and he started doing Trump jokes. And then
there was some guy in the front he said, Hey, I just donated
$250,000 Would you mind just like laying out the president? I
just in the mood to hear it. It's about kids and diabetes,
and he kept going. And then the audience wasn't responding. And
he said, Are you what El Chapo people what's going on? And he
got booed off the stage.
Oh, nice. Yeah, it's about it's about time. And I was mentioned
Mimi was down here for comedy date and wished she works. And
she says every comic comes up Trump Trump Trump is very
tiresome. And Mel Brooks, of course, came out says that Trump
is ruined comedy because these guys are. They're not these
jokes aren't funny. It's trod Trump's to bleh Oh, you got a
Cheeto face. I mean, this is not funny material.
But Trump is to blame. It's not the comics who can't come up
with anything better. It's actually the Trump who's been
no, no,
that's Brooks said that. No, he's obviously not blaming
Trump, but he's blaming the fact that Trump won and these comics
are preoccupied because they can't come up with anything else
is ruined. You know, the scene is not Trump, Trump Trump. I
mean, Jimmy Kimmel is a good example. I do admire the fact
that Fallon came out and says he's not going there. Yeah, I
didn't catch any of that. That's what he said. That's the That's
the latest Fallon and
he actually did an interview saying, I'm not doing that. I'm
not gonna do Hey, I hate Trump the night show. It's just that I
don't see the point of it. Yeah. And yeah, so I just because he's
got to, you know, you got to, it's pointless. And Kim was
meanwhile, backpedaling. Yeah, I ll arrested. You know, the stuff
that he's doing. I sure
hope he finds some time to talk about the 85 people killed in
Mogadishu. Yeah. You think Nah, no one gives a shit as long as
as long as it's in America. Trump that Trump has Trump
responsible now. All right, next story. That's how it works in
newsrooms everywhere. 125 psychologists and other mental
health professionals marched on lower Broadway Saturday to
demand President Trump be thrown out of office.
Yeah, cuz it's just that just the way it works. Yes, man. He
gets thrown out and he gets thrown out. There's just so
simple. And they're,
even though that it would have been a great sign. They didn't
say and we marched for the 25th because that's what they really
want to do. They want to take, they want to use the
constitutional clause the way it's being described, that
allows presidents to be ousted when their cabinets decide
they're unable to discharge the powers and duty of their job. So
as to see Harry Seagal Cornell University psychologist says we
can sense the power of Trump's underlying fear that he is
worthless and weak by how intensely he resists and
retaliated against any criticism. No matter how minor
he can't let anything go. Michelle garland, also a
clinical psychologist, agreed, quoting excuse me, we're
actually suffering from his narcissistic personality. He has
no empathy. You can feel it the way he spoke about the San Juan
mayor. She has PTSD and our president mistreats her she's
victory victimized that's a narcissist really re victimized
I didn't hear now I can play my Geraldo clip about Puerto Rico.
Here we go. You know, probably he's from Puerto Rico his
family's there and I guess he had an island there which he
might have sold family
lives here. You're from Puerto Rico, you stone an island down
to four months before the storm hit and the islands survived
ironically, everything is fine the solar panels.
I don't know why it's ironic. Maybe
it's just because it's about all about him.
And it's available on Airbnb, I'm sure
five ironically, everything is fine. The solar panels, the
pool, everything is fine.
Everything's fine. The pool the solar panels is all great.
I'm so glad Yesterday of Puerto Rico, because I want to say this
about the president. He has been getting the worst, most
dishonest press about his visit to Puerto Rico. It is staggering
to me how unfair how grotesquely unfair the reporting has been.
For example, I can attest because I saw with my own eyes,
that 90 95% of everyone he came in physical contact with or who
lined the routes. We're all enthusiastic about his visit.
And the President is right about something else. He is right
about the fact that the infrastructure in Puerto Rico
was an absolute disaster before Hurricane Maria It is a
dysfunctional system. It is a corrupt system, the power
authority should be in jail. They have used the private,
public Puerto Rican electric authority as their own private
piggy bank. They should privatize energy in Puerto Rico,
they will often before the hurricane 70% of Puerto Rico is
at a power before Maria hit. Irma it was a glancing blow last
year three days it was one fire one power plant three days the
entire island was blacked out. We should bring in whoever it
takes bring in GE bring in the Chinese bring in somebody to buy
that company, run it as a business and give people
reliable. I can't have my en la sitting in the dark anymore
in the on the island with the pool and the sort of
like pool, but it's a good point of attack. That's
a good point, though. It's a good point that it was it was a
mess before the hurricane struck. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. By
now. Here's a look at the news for this week. President's bad
yay. Yeah, well, he's was an IQ test.
is adamant. He is kind of a moron though. I have to admit.
weird shit.
Well, let's see what we got here. New heavy, you know,
trying to get a rundown of a rundown on what happened this
week. According to CBS. Trump I ramp because I want to play this
new head of DHS from Democracy Now, which kind of kind of tells
the story a little differently than we're getting from the
mainstream media about this woman,
too. Then Trump says he plans to nominate Kirsten Nielsen to
serve as the next Homeland Security Secretary. John Kelly
Trump's previous Homeland Security Secretary now serves as
Trump's chief of staff. Nielsen is a longtime DHS official,
recently serving as Kelly's Chief of Staff under President
George W. Bush, who was the senior director for preparedness
and response at the White House Security Council ahead of
Hurricane Katrina. She was subsequently singled out and
congressional reports as one of the key figures in the Bush
administration, who had been warned about the impending
catastrophe of Katrina but failed to act. She also worked
in the for profit security industry, first as a firm called
Civic task group and then founding the security forum.
Students this consulting
glad you picked up on this because I have not looked into
her background at all. Who is this woman?
Well, she's apparently an old Washington DC hack the kind of
people that they don't want in there. And he said, who goes
back and forth between the private sector and the public
sector, and has worked her way up to date of all things to be
the head of Homeland Security, which is not a minor role? No,
it actually kind of fascinating that anyone can manage to do
this.
Let's see where she comes. She graduated from Georgetown School
of Foreign Service with a JD from the University of Virginia
School of Law, so she is a spoke.
I don't know if she's a spook, if she has the earmarks. That's
earmarks.
Let's see she was Elaine Dukes, Chief of Staff at Department of
Homeland Security, and informally performed the role of
White House Deputy Chief of Staff since Kelly resumed
offices, White House Chief of Staff and then she became
Secretary of Homeland Security. Oh, okay. So she was doing
something she was running. She was Interim Chief of Staff
momentarily that we maybe not heard about. Didn't realize
that.
And she was she was Chief of Staff of White House. Yeah.
Yeah. Right. Because your deputy Deputy Chief of Staff deputy
deputy
got it, huh. Yeah, that's that is interesting for her that's
not I don't think she really has the background for that role.
Honestly. No, I don't think so. either. It's all been like
really shared.
And administrative assistant glorified. Hmm. I mean, she's
Kelly's assistant he's the Chief of Staff she's not
well it's certainly blows the whole sessions we'll go there
out of the water. That's by the way what happened to the hate
for sessions that just end or was that just a cycle? Yeah,
you're right. It may be oh, maybe it should come up again.
Maybe that shouldn't come up again. You but no, no, I'm
saying maybe we have sessions is next on in rotation. Yeah,
If there's so many items, we made that long list of items,
which I don't know if you have any more, I haven't somewhere. I
have a long list of items why Trump's an idiot. He's had more
on the Russians stole the election and one thing after
another and this is a long list, yeah, is a sexual pervert. He's
incompetent. There's one thing after another and they come and
they push one agenda. And then or one meme, let's say, and then
another and then they move to the next to the next to the
next. And Sessions is in there. And he'll be he'll come up again
in the rotation right now. I think the rotation is headed
toward Russia, Russia. Yeah, that's what it looks like to me.
They said that. They got the Harvey Weinstein thing they can
make the association. It's a sex thing as you said. And Trump is
a sex fiend just like Harvey Weinstein, right? Which is
bullcrap if there ever was anything, that's bullcrap. And
by see this slow transition back to the Russian thing, and we
also have that he's a madman, and we gotta get that in there.
But he rotates so sessions will be back in the picture show us
Oh,
for sure, for sure. Well, regarding Russia, then the only
new news that I got is that the Russian Facebook, Twitter Google
YouTube Tumblr, ad campaigns also on Instagram, but also
included as part of a campaign with Pokemon Go they're so smart
these Russians they know
they know exactly where to get the stupid Americans. Because
you
that's the problem we need right reeducation? put people into
FEMA camp style put people in some FEMA camps, make them
understand. We're stupid. Love it
will do anything for a video game.
Well, let's play the long there's a long clip is a Trump
rap from one of the networks that kind of keeps us up to
what's what's in the news? A little better, I think then the
array that NPR guy Oh, yeah,
but that's NPR. It should be you know, it should be world
affairs. All kinds of interesting topics.
We'll show it to us. Yeah, well, should this but this is just
Trump
ran is not
living up a day after Donald Trump's broadside against the
nuclear deal. Iranians are digesting the news and trying to
figure out what it means. It is possible their country's economy
will take another hit. But Iran's Foreign Minister Javad
Zarif, who sat down with CBS News Today thinks President
Trump's decertification has above all damaged America's
reputation.
Nobody will trust any US administration to engage in any
long term negotiations.
In his response to Donald Trump, Iran's President hinted his
country might now expand its conventional weapons program,
which would add fuel to the fiery rhetoric blazing between
Washington and Tehran. No sooner had the deal been signed, that
the Revolutionary Guard began testing missiles, it was at the
very least provocative
because the United States is sending hundreds of billion
dollars, billions of dollars of worth of so called Beautiful
military equipment to countries in this region.
He means to Iran's arch enemies, especially Saudi Arabia.
We need to defend our people. Friday prayers
this week in Tehran, there was the usual chants of death to
America. In recent years, the Iranians have
come do they still do that? That didn't hear them go Death to
America didn't go
watching this. I think it's a Persian but yes, according to
her she. Yeah, she's claimed that it doesn't. She has a
little explanation. Tehran, there
was the usual chants of death to America. In recent years,
Iranians have come to see this more as a stale ritual than a
real battle cry. But after Donald Trump's aggressive speech
on Friday, could certainly change.
Come on, you just that's just guessing that could certainly
change with his rhetoric. Yeah, it changed my rhetoric.
But here's here's the I'm thinking this, if we're going to
listen to some of the our own theses, as opposed to our own
feces. If the Military Intelligence Group took over the
White House from the CIA, the Central Intelligence dia took
over from CIA, which we've discussed Yes, as a possibility.
Is it possible that their idea of a good time be is going to be
a lot different than the CIA's and they would like to see
because it was mentioned in this report. They would actually
enjoy seeing an Iran or Iran, Saudi Arabia war, general war in
the in the Middle East because there's a proxy war right now
going on in Yemen. Yeah. Which is, which is
as bad if you're in Yemen.
Yeah. If you're in Yemen, you're in the middle of a proxy war
between the Saudis and the Iranians. Were there with us
with us refueling and doing other groovy things? Well, yeah,
we're given money to the Saudis to, to kill innocent people. And
is it possible that, that there is a scenario that somebody has
written down a Game of War, a game of war scenario is
something that shows it would be beneficial to the United States
for a general war, to break out between Iran and Saudi Arabia,
because Saudi Arabia's kept out of the whole fray, but there's
still this Yemen thing came up. And they're all in on that. So
and it doesn't take much logic to take it to the next level, if
you're going to be fighting the Iranians in Yemen, you must just
find them in general area. Right, right.
But the Iranians don't really do that. They don't really like to,
they like to fund other people. They don't like to fight.
No, but they had they were all in on the war against Iraq. So
they do have a warlike tendency. I mean, they weren't not
fighting. And so that's not that we haven't seen it within our
just reasoned memory that the Iraqis and the Iranians are in a
full blown war.
Well, let's listen to the President's own words. Well, I'm
sorry, they're not His words, there, teleprompter words, which
he is delivering my fellow
Americans, as President of the United States, my highest
obligation is to ensure the safety and security of the
American people.
No, I'm really, really, really sorry, who is writing this for
you? That you may feel that's your responsibility, but the
oath you took is to defend and uphold the Constitution? Yes, we
fall under that. But please, do I hate it? It pisses me off? It
really does.
History has shown that the longer we ignore a threat, the
more dangerous that threat becomes. For this reason, upon
taking office, I've ordered a complete strategic review of our
policy toward the rogue regime in Iran. That review is now
complete. Today, I am announcing our strategy, along with several
major steps we are taking to confront the Iranian regime's
hostile actions and to ensure that Iran never, and I mean,
never acquires a nuclear weapon.
Alright, so here's the problem with the thesis, and I like it.
And it sounds like, you know, this is indeed part of the plan.
And so you're never gonna have a nuclear weapon, we'll put a stop
to it. The problem with Iran is they don't have a dude, there's
no one to point at. You know, that Shah guy knows and does
just too confusing. People understand if he has power,
because they got some present, they need a bad hat. We can't
sponsor an information war against Iran, if we don't have a
baddie. I think it's a real problem.
Well, that can be resolved with good public relations, right. So
let's Be on the lookout for it, if that is the mission, they've
got, okay, let's
just let's make the assumption that the DIA running the White
House, and the President in the executive office, that's once a
war
between military intelligence. Let's just make it clear. So
yeah, military intelligence. We'll use that. Once the war
between the Saudis and the Iranians for whatever reason,
take over the oil. We don't know what to do or that just to just
have it well, we can sell stuff. Yeah, we can sell a lot of
stuff. That's true. It's a moneymaker for us if it's done
right.
A plan is executed properly.
Yeah. So let's see if if things headed in that direction. Yeah,
I mean, we'll just have to I mean, we do have the little
little episode with Qatar, which is another little sore point
that again, I'm sure NPR mentioned that in their rundown
about the craziness going there I guess not now with the Qatar
and expected Saudis having a beef with them and the quality
of the Qatar and Iran
Qatar is advertising everywhere CNBC and other business channels
they're advertising Qatar open for business. This is just This
is an unfair block. You know, screw Saudi Arabia. Come on over
a join us. It's all groovy here.
It could be if orchestrated correctly. This could be quite
interesting to watch. Yeah.
Well, we will be watching I'm looking for a bad hat to arise.
I don't know how they do it. I don't think there's any election
scheduled. We need someone to be the bad guy. You need to say
that guy is killing his own people. Or, yeah, come on, you
know, the basic, the basic building blocks of what we do
Well with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage. They
say in the morning to you, John C. USC stands for compositing
Russia stories for the Trump cycle. Devorah AK.
Well in the morning to you, Mr. Adam curry. Also in the morning
all ships at sea boots on the ground feet in the air subs in
the water. And all the Dames and nights out there.
Yes, in the morning to bring it up here. Josh shut torium. Now
Joshua Torian brought us the artwork for episode nine or
seven to title that was men provement, which has not caught
on yet. But we're still waiting men. provement Yeah. It was
Taylor Swift, the patriotic 2020 presidential kind of photo with
her with the stars and stripes in the background in the White
House. I can't remember why it was so good.
Well, I can remember Yeah, we looked at all the different art
and we said, well, you know, a picture of Taylor Swift.
That's right. He's always a winner. Right? Like, you know,
there's nothing against Taylor Swift on your album art. It
always works if it's cheap, but we're doing it. Yeah.
And I until we get a letter right. You're
right. I forgot. That's exactly why we did it. Yeah.
Because we had noticed like, oh, Taylor Swift wouldn't run for
office. Yeah. munchie complainers? Well, we only have
two people here to thank. And we do have we do have a third,
which is because the checks didn't get posted, okay. And we
wouldn't be there. I'm just gonna move the third and
Thursday show I'm gonna tell them to tell Patrick Meili in
Bountiful Utah that he's gonna get moved and gauge his his son
he's giving a knighthood to will
hopefully we got all we got our birthdays and stuff off the
checks if we're lucky.
Hey, oh, that was this is the old news. None. Okay, good. All
right, good. So the only thing here is this the thing to gauge
as a late birthday present because he was turned 18 In
September, which is last month. So let's go with Oh, we got
Kelly sandland is the executive producer for show 973 She came
up with 333 that three three no note keep doing what you're
doing. Boom. Thank you, Brian J and J
there's one on the boom ometer
Keith Gibson $200 will be our Associate Executive Producer and
he just says dealer's choice on the jingles well dealer so I'd
like to pick on Obama if if if if you can find if if you can
find it
Yeah, I think so. Obama if let's see what we have think has to be
if if if doesn't it?
If if every time you look for it you can never find it.
Yeah, I'm not sure what that is. Obama if
if if if it
Okay, how about this? How about that guy just form a circle in
the end a big hug that old fashioned the old clip that's
tell a secret? No and there's no competition? Yes. Yes, I have
that one. Kiss a
favorite that's all you want. Only that one you want and
if if
if if if to Emma's Obama stutter Why can't I find this? This is
really bad
yeah, this one needs to be re re Yeah, it does do this every time
you look for the fff I'm not sure what what's going on.
There's no winning. We don't like to foster a competitive
atmosphere but we laugh a lot. Now everyone can share a secret
you've got karma I had this I have this. We've seen more
manufacturing jobs created since I've been President than any
time since the 1990s. But frankly part of
a bunch of Okey doke that's a good one
that's all right. And we forgot about
better ones. Yeah.
I want to mention the about there's no competition we just
hug and pasture secret yeah, there's a good article that came
out on Zero Hedge about Home Depot fearful that which is
something we talked about recently that kid the the
millennials, they don't even know how to use a hammer they
can't hammer a nail. Really? Yeah. And they don't know what
to do about so they come out with videos that show people how
to use a hammer and nail. Unbelievably
idiotic goes back to our home equity conference, the
whole Mac and shop classes are no longer available to kids
because of liabilities live ability of course abilities.
There's no shop classes. There's no auto shop which used to
happen now.
You can't do anything with autos anymore. Anyway, John, you can't
get in there. That's all tightened up, and it was all
locked down. You can't get in.
Yeah. And that's true. But you can still build a car from
scratch. Or you could maybe learn how to tune up a fuel
injection system. I mean, there's new things you can do.
Yeah, that would be appropriate and auto shop, wood shop that
used to have they used to have metal shop and one of the
schools I went to Yeah, so they had the three kinds of shop for
the boys and they had home EQ, and a couple of other classes
for women. Although they you'd see women in the woodshop class
to it, but they learned how to, you know, use a screwdriver.
Do you think, do they still do that? We had this. We have to
partner boy girl have to partner up and you have to have a baby.
That's a doll and you have to take care of the doll for the
weekend together.
This never happened. I've never seen that. No, I'm I'm maybe I'm
I'm pre I predate that bullshit.
Yeah, it was. It was around for sure. I'm sure
it was and I'm sure it came after I was came in Romans.
Hey, was that it was added for the donations. Yeah, man. I
can't take this roller coaster.
Yeah, it's it goes from up to down up to down. And I know, we
had the extra one. It only been one more disturb, which will be
on the next show. And there's also some guy promised a big
giant check, but it never showed up.
Okay, cool. All right. Well, we want to thank our sole executive
producer and soul Associate Executive Producer for coming in
and helping us out as best they could. But it's uh, I'm just
looking at this list. It's, it's gonna be short second donation
segment as well. What is going on?
Ah, weird. I can't put my finger on it.
Well, I just we always have to wonder if
there's a memory. There's a pre collapse of the economy.
Yes, Armageddon isn't is nice, I'm sure. Well, these of course,
are official credit. So you can take them with your business
cards up, put them on your LinkedIn, join the guild IF YOU
WANT TO THE Producers Guild will recognize it. And again, we
really appreciate it. We'll be thanking more people $50 And
over later on in the second segment, and remember our show
coming up on Thursday for.org/and
A and of course,
the rest of the weekend. You got your Sunday left to go out there
propagate the formula. Our formula is this. We go out for
people in the mouth Yes, yes, yes. Yes. Okay. Hey, poop
update. Oh, okay. This is Yeah. You've seen the poop app. This
is all based on your story about hepatitis A. Yeah. In San
Francisco in the Jordan General San Francisco area. Well, the
San Diego San Diego is where it's the worst. Okay. Now, we
may have an answer to why this is happening. Why this all of a
sudden, sped ahead. And this and if it true, and I think it's
reasonable. It shows you how sometimes the best social
justice movements can result in undesired movements. And the
got it go. No, I got the joke. Oh, you
got the joke. No. Okay.
It was a joke. No, you didn't know.
Yeah, I did. But it wasn't meant to like be deconstructed. No,
this is because of the plastic bag ban. There's no more plastic
bags for the homeless people to poop in.
Oh, that's an interesting little observation.
It's not just a little observation. I think it's huge.
Yeah, this is a homeless man who writes the homeless survival
guide said the hepatitis outbreak was completely
predictable. It's why I left San Diego Absolutely. We know people
use bags for that said the San Diego County Public Health
Officer Wilma Wooten we know people don't have bathrooms and
they can't they can put bags and cans and buckets and maintain
good hygiene. That's why we put plastic bags in the hygiene kits
were handing out Oh, okay. That'll solve it. If you take
away millions of plastic bags and now you can hand it little
kits. Little hygiene kit you should put bag he should
toothbrush don't confuse them. Man Come on.
That's a very good good observation.
And I didn't know this but Hepatitis A spread by contact
with feces or blood. We knew that but even a trace amount
that's months old. Yeah. Yeah, you have to heat it to 185
degrees to kill it. It can live for months outside. Add the body
Holy moly.
Yeah it's very bad actor
Geez maybe this is a new product we can launch what the no agenda
ship kit
it's just an idea. Walk right into that once you did so well
while you're on that the idea of some of these things this is you
know these things last of the diseases and the horrible things
are going to happen I didn't clip the whole thing because it
went on forever but because the show it's I think it's called DW
world that I pull some crazy clips from every so often this
is one of them. But this is a classic example because I
remember there's this one guy I can't quite remember his name
was on London's that talk show who's always condemning people
who despise the EU for their frivolous laws. Play the POM
fried versus the EU story.
Did you know that the French fry is in fact not French, but
rather Belgian in origin I did. Belgian fries doesn't quite roll
off the tongue of the same way. But they are delicious. One
reason for this is the country's unique double fry method.
I do just want to say one thing you know, I am an expert in the
fry arena.
Well, I'm glad for you now just saying I will be listening and
you can comment when I after this trip is over. I'm going to
make some some toys, some more stuff that was in the
furtherance of the clip. And then I want you to tell me what
using your expertise.
Yes, I think we did this story. By the way. We didn't have a
clip but we did the story. This was
pretty news. This is pretty new. And there's news rotations just
came out this weekend.
We did the story.
Okay. First, this is the country's unique double fry
method, rendering the spuds crispy on the outside and soft
on the inside. But this beloved dish is now being threatened by
European Union laws on food. The rest of Europe often complaints
about bureaucracy coming out of Brussels, but now it seems
bitterness is being tasted
closer to home.
This summer, Brussels was the site of an unusually delectable
political drama at its center Belgian freeze. Unlike similar
tasty treats made elsewhere shears are lovingly bathed in
lots of oil twice. Bush
First you've got a deep fryer poach the chips in hot oil. That
ensures they stay soft inside. Then they're fried again to a
lovely golden color. The amount of time depends on the type of
potato on It's sugar and starch content. You need an eye for
that it's a skill.
You can sense when they're done so see some Yeah,
yes and Belgium we can tell when they're ready.
So understand. Belgian fry aficionados weren't pleased when
the EU Commission proposed new guidelines on how the snack
should be prepared. To add insult to injury, the report
called them french fries, rather than three pages of
recommendations regarding crispiness sugar content and pH
value. Actually change in processing procedure actually
began in the early 1970s When a German fry manufacturer used the
machine to cut up the potatoes, which were then blanched that is
briefly plunged into boiling water. But the result, the chips
absorbed less oil. But they also tasted a little bland.
artificial flavoring took care of that problem. But that's
another story. Then in 2002, acrylamide was discovered in
food believed to be carcinogenic. It forms in the
fryer process when certain foods are heated to a temperature
greater than 120 degrees Celsius.
Before you say anything, you said this was brand new news.
I'm not doubting you. I just want you to show you how far
ahead the no agenda show is. This is episode 940. June 22.
The commission has come up with a little issue with the
Belgians. You need to know that even though the Dutch Okay, so
that's when we were talking about it.
Sounds right. That's how good we are. So now I'm looking at this
report, because they showed that on the screen in HD the pages of
the year, which is about 10 pages of rules on how to cook
french fries. Yeah. And I'm looking at this and it's like, I
gotta get a copy of it because it's like, by the way, the way
the story ends, it goes on the big fusses made and people come
out with all kinds of bitching and moaning articles and then
the EU comes out and says we're not going to do anything, which
I think is what we determined in the first time we've talked
about this, but I'm looking at these rules and is discussing
The sugar content of the potatoes has to be such in such
the they have a scale color scale. And you have to match the
potato chip when it's finished to a color scale with a with a
value. And you can do that either by comparing it to a
chart or by hitting you with some with a paint chip.
That looks the business right there. Yeah, first went
on and on and on with the sugar content and the pH to finish pH
and how long you can leave it in the oil. It was unbelievable
that these guys are that bored. This is the problem when you
have with bureaucrats with nothing to do and they decide to
go after something. Maybe they hate the Belgians. I don't know.
But I didn't go into the details about the German method of
making potatoes with their you know boiling the potato first
and the rest of it but I will say this. Anyway, I just thought
was a gasp by the story. But I want to just since we're going
to talk about French fries just for a second. You're a french
fry expert. I have found that the one thing I have played with
this double cooking idea forever because it shows up in the joy
of cooking. And it shows up in Julia Child's cookbooks. Yeah,
and it's double frying really. You fry it a little bit and you
take it out again you fry it again. I have found that it does
nothing. It doesn't do crap. I've depended a lot of it more
I'm more concerned about the potato itself than the
methodology for cooking the potato. Now I will say one thing
for people who like to make french fries at home that if you
can find it they have them. The German butterball potato if
turned into French fries is an absolutely remarkable product
because it actually ends up looking like it was coated or
something when it's cooked. The doesn't just make a smooth
surface it's got a kind of a crinkly little thing going on in
the cooking process and it's it's a fabulous tasting french
fry generally speaking when I do French fries Can I just
say one thing about what I know about the frying process in
Belgium of the freezer I live there and of course Sure yeah
it's two different types of oils at different temperatures.
And what are those temperatures or whatever dad I
don't know but I know that it's they have a pre fry and they
have the like the pre fry for and then the main fry and I
think it's two different kinds of oils
that make well it makes sense because you have different
specific heats and each oil and it would
have different needs for different temperatures of the
oil. Generally speaking, I
cook and safflower oil, which has a high specific heat you can
really get it hot and I use if I can if it's normal potatoes as
opposed to the German butterball I will use a five millimeter
size chip which is close to being shoestrings but it's not.
And do you cut that yourself? Yes, even
I don't do five millimeters that's how I use one of those
esfera one of the slider things that you can kill yourself with
those horrible slice a half the range of devices.
Those are my favorite. You got
my finger that had to be very careful with these things. And
you but five millimeter you get the little five minute because
you get the little blades you stick it in this thing and
they're five millimeters apart then you just have the vertical
by hand and you get a nice five millimeter french fry and it's
absolutely killer. But safflower oil is what I used to say for
oil. Once it's what what is what is the oil, safflower I use
sunflower safflower, safflower safflower oil is a great high
temperature cooking oil. Sunflower is a good oil to you
don't need expeller oil in fact, you probably don't want it you
want I mean these oils are created from from a hexane
extraction process generally. And when they voylla NV gold is
hexane is toxic. When when you heat the oil up the first time I
don't use any of these hexane oils for salad dressing. But if
you heat it up the first time, if there's any residual hexane
it gets blown off by the heat. I also you're you're in pretty
good
shape. I have long sought since thought that in the United
States having a free ticket or as we would say a snack bar just
selling french fries that like the Dutch do it but they
actually sell it but you have the that you can have it's like
a food trailer. You can have a food truck
they have it they have exactly what you're describing in New
York City.
Yeah, well, you need a lot of them because people will dig
that and it's very cheap. It's a cheap product to make and
outstanding tasting. Yeah, I agree dish. Yeah. Hey, John.
Another another opportunity for us
yeah we can go into the into the free truck game free truck
game very nice. Well Zero Hedge but also wrote an interesting
story I thought maybe it came from the lawyer or it from
somewhere else oriented he's a reprint and I know we brought
this up about the specs it whether Catalonia wants to get
out I don't really have an update on that at the moment but
the talk in the European Union is you know, this is very
dangerous or so may actually want it who knows. They talk of
the katalon chain reaction which could set off next on the list
would be Flanders and the flip the Flemish and the balloons.
Yeah, we're Flanders
saw them there's a little map floating around showing all
these little hotspots where this
could happen. But how about Wales wouldn't wouldn't Wales
be I think Wales less likely than Scotland. Okay.
You got to freeze land
yeah, there's there's a little map floating around showing the
real hotspots and I think is Basque country as well. Yeah,
but that's I think that's pretty been reduced to next to nothing
you know, we should we should have really liked this French
fried truck game idea. The you know what the toppings are the
typical Dutch Belgian toppings and I'll give you the nicknames
too. So you have french fries with you just say french fry
with mayonnaise with very creamy mayonnaise. Then you can have a
special a special which is mayonnaise, ketchup and onions.
Then you can have a production oral which means a french fry
war and that is the same as a special so you have the
mayonnaise, the ketchup the onions and you add on some
peanut satay sauce and it satay satay sauce. Yeah, we call it
sub tastes out to the peanut satay sauce. There's a multitude
I wonder do they use that peanut sauce in Belgium because that
sounds more like a Dutch thing.
Which one?
The satay sauce is just peanuts peanut sauce. It's coming from
the from that should have it because of their
Asia, Indonesia. I'm smacking my lips because I'm hungry. Now. I
can taste it. And then you can save then the secondary product
is croquette to free Candela hamburgers. You know, you can
sell all kinds of secondary stuff but but make that make
your french fries make it the main deal. It's it's money in
the bank
$10.
All righty. Speaking of oil, French, right.
Speaking of oil, our old phrase Peak Oil is back. Ah, I'm glad
you asked. There's a new meaning to peak oil. You
just dropped a bombshell off camera. And then you've done it
again on how you think the price is plummeting to 10 bucks.
Yeah, not not in the next few weeks or months or maybe even
quarters. But I think the long term outlook for oil, because of
what's happening in terms of electric vehicles, you know, 70%
of oil uses transportation, cars, and planes and so on. So
what happens to electric vehicles is really, really
important. And if you look at some of the long range
forecasts, you know, we may we may, you know, we used to talk
about peak oil in terms of supply, we now need to about
peak oil in terms of demand. And I think the year could be
somewhere 2023 25 peak oil with a great old Saudi oil minister
quote, of course, which we often drag on in moments like this is
the Stone Age didn't end because of lack of stones. Right? Yeah.
That's fascinating, isn't it? I mean, what's fascinating,
is like he had rolled right off his tongue. I'd never heard it,
but I like it. I like it. Stone Age didn't end just because of a
lack of stone lack
of stones.
Right? Yeah. That's fascinating, isn't it? I mean, you know
what's fascinating, we forget, I mean, 100 100 and pays a deck.
He
was like, Shut up, you interrupted me. I'm fascinating.
Let me continue. 20
years ago, the world didn't live on oil. Oil hasn't always driven
the global economy fair, I although I have got room for a
horse to keep warm. One is that it was cold. And before that it
was wood. And they've been other sources of energy, excuse me.
But I think the point is alternative energy, in some
forms is gathering speed. You know, there's Moore's law within
solar energy.
You gotta be on the lookout for that mean, really, that means
every two years, the amount of silicone you can pack into a
sheet is going to double and the price is going to drop by half.
Boy, that hasn't happened
within the cost of it. I think it's terrific point. Because
interesting is often new economies and emerging economies
that adopt new technologies first, because they don't have
the old infrastructure that they have to keep servicing and it's
easier to do a command economy it's
easy to get stuff done. Everyone says oil is gonna be very
important part of the mix. 20 3040 years
out to about peak oil. I mean, think of it and you know, the
numbers could be not much more than 20 million barrels a day
where we are maybe 25. I don't want to pin it down too precise.
It's it's a big broad range. But the point is, you know how to
cut the, you know, Saudi still makes its money if oil goes to
10, but it doesn't balance his books. You know, Russia has the
global politics changes dramatically. dramatically,
Canada, everyone loves Canada at the moment. But
I'd like that little bit at the end. Everybody loves Canada, but
wait until the oil price goes to $10. There'll be screwed.
The oil price could go to 20. I mean, it's happened. We've seen
these fluctuations before. But it's really looks very stable at
where it is right now. Which is $51.42. Right. And
I like the the concept of peak oil, as in demand is I like it
too. Because everywhere I go, I hear people talking about
electric vehicles, and these are they somehow the hypnosis is
complete, there is no thought at all about the dependence. And
who then controls your vehicle or potentially can control your
vehicle. And that is your, your pipeline. The to energy to
electricity, which you know, in some, like disasters isn't
available, but it's also something that gets cut off.
Yes, this is very important. Rico, this is very deep,
inherent belief that once we have the infrastructure in place
to recharge or swap out a battery, it's going to be just
as easy and you'll have your freedom. And I'm like, No, I
mean, it does get a diesel then. It's also hard to convince
people that even a modern day diesel can run on salad oil,
yes, it can.
You don't have to change any feud, where you had to make some
adjustments
that know nothing, the only adjustment you have to make is
you need to be able to heat it in the in the tubing. If it's
too cold outside, that's all it will run.
Will well diesel engines are remarkable. And I would say if
you're a total paranoid freak, that's exactly what you want.
Yeah, that's what I really do want. I can't I can't afford the
diesel version of a truck.
But the gasoline engine to me still seems like to be the best
alternative when given a choice. And the I agree this electricity
thing is unreliable. And these are the question I do not go
very far.
But I have a scientific question for you, which struck me I can't
answer it. I may sound really stupid by John's like, Oh,
goody. Oh, yes. Okay. Let's go. All right, the the energy that
you have in your vehicle, whether that is in my, in my
truck, which is gasoline, whether that's in a Tesla, which
or maybe even a supercar doesn't matter, the amount of energy,
which is measured in kilowatt hours, and there's no, there's
other types of measurements that come along with that. That is
just the amount of energy that you have to spend on the road
with your vehicle. If you're, whether you have a tank full of
gas, or whether you have a folder filled up charge, that
energy comes from somewhere. So what if you, if you have, let's
just say for purposes of argument, you have the same
range? In a Tesla, as you do in your mid sized car that can go
200 miles radius, let's just say it's the same. But doesn't the
amount of energy that ultimately is transferred to the wheels
onto the road? That has to come back from somewhere? And is it
so much cheaper to create all of that energy that is stored in
the battery than it is to burn it almost straight away in the
gas powered car? Does that make any sense?
I think what you're trying I don't know what you're trying to
say. I mean, you might make a masculine quest. The point is,
is that you have to get the energy into the battery from
someplace and yeah,
you got to take creating the battery all of these things is
it doesn't really do that much other than possibly
is to save money is what you're asking, does it really save
money when you count the cost electricity, the cost of
generation of the electricity, and all the rest of it? There
are some it seems to be a cheaper, that's where you get
that 100 mile per gallon equivalency. It seems to be a
little cheaper to use electricity, but electricity is
using some power someplace and people think that gas engine can
also provide that same sort of mpg equivalency. If it was if
the engine was more efficient, or there's some new kind of
motor that was developed, apparently there's people
working on that as we speak. Not necessarily with the
maybe it's it's the ultimate cost to power ratio that I
should be looking at. What does it really cost?
Yeah, I think it's a little cheaper. And it also is a good
more environmentally, more environmentally. Be friendly for
sure. At the car level,
yes, for sure.
Not necessarily at the power plant level, right. But you lose
a lot of electricity through the power line. So there's a really
a lot of wasted energy no matter what you do, right? But I
believe it to be a little cheaper, okay, I could be wrong
and there may be an engineer and so they can show us a
calculation showing is not cheaper. Because we do know that
these numbers, the equivalency numbers are one thing. There's
also a fact that these cars are subsidized and you're not really
should be paying for these cars. So if you're paying, you know,
$120,000 for a really fancy electric car, and you could get
a you have the gasoline equivalent car that is $75,000.
Yeah. Are you saving $50,000? I don't think so.
Yeah, I don't think so either. All right. Well, I noticed in my
environment, people are all in
and let me forget about what can you remind us what town you're
in
Austin? Yes. Austin blue.in. The red state? Ooh.
I wonder if you went outside of Austin to normal town.
You asked a question we get shot. Like no, son. What you're
doing here Austin?
What are you doing there? What happens? What do you what
happens when you get there? When electric car electric future
electric.
Hey, let me tell you go look at the the training manuals for
EMTs on how to disable every vehicle has special kill
switches you have to pull before you can do anything to it. Yeah,
that's includes Priuses Yes. Oh, yeah. The Prius has got a lot of
a lot of high voltage that could mess with it. Yeah, mess with
you for sure. All right.
All right. You want to I want to do that. At least to do one. I
got two clips I want to do to run down to the fires because
this is still going
on. Have we seen any rain?
We have but for the North?
Okay. It's on its way people to come and we will done it.
But, but let's die cup. I have some personal anecdotes. I mean,
the other day, there were the ash coming down. Yeah. And they
may or I mean, it wasn't enough to cover anything just like oh,
no, there's a piece of ash. The yesterday the winds shifted
around here in the Bay Area was beautiful. And in fact, it was
so nice. Yesterday was clear, there was no smoke in the air.
It was absolute dynamite. Even though there's shown people
wearing masks and getting carried away. And then yesterday
evening, I'm gonna bring a term into the domain here. Yesterday
evening, I went out it was like it was one of those perfect
evenings in California where it's about 6768 degrees. No
wind, no breeze, but still clear. Beautiful. It feels great
to be outside in that weather in the evening or in even the early
night. And the first thing you think if you lived in California
when you feel that feeling that only happens once a while you
say to yourself, earthquake weather. And that's what I
always say. That's what I was I went outside home and Oh,
earthquake, earthquake when people always mock California is
for saying earthquake weather. But that experience is that's
what earthquake weather is. And it's always usually in October
when there's usually an earthquake. So wow, that's both
crap. There's no such thing. Let's play. Let's play the
weather. I say I have an earthquake. It's funny. Fire
update. Now I want to say this is Lindsey Janis on ABC, and I
have to just do a call out because I've decided that as a
reporter, she's always in the field doing something like this.
I think she's the best reporter on all three networks. In the
domestic reporter. I think she's pleasant to look at. she
presents herself Welsh in terms of the way she does her reads or
what is her name again? What is her name? Lindsay, Janice J and
is I think was Lindsay li N Z IE. She is just a I mean it's it
when she does a report it's always thorough, is well put
together. It doesn't have a lot of propaganda necessarily in it.
And I just like her to her reporting. She's
great comes from CNN International in London.
She started her career. There really she's got no London
accent she must have been
graduated with while she's a real giorno. She graduated with
a degree in journalism from the University of the Arts of
London, in London, which is a fine journalism school I'm sure
well
now listen, see she has a British accent. She has none.
That's how good she is her next
year to California's deadly and devastating wildfires. They fear
possible worsening winds there this weekend. dangerous
conditions expected through Sunday. Winds up to 50 miles an
hour. And look at this tonight. Smoke 75 miles away in San
Francisco people wearing masks schools clothes today. ABCs
Lindsay Janis in Santa Rosa again tonight amid new stories
one couple surviving in their neighbor's pool. The fire all
around them.
Tonight firefighters keeping up the battle to save homes.
I heard it right there in the tonight tonight. In the tonight.
That's what they
told me that I would have no I wouldn't have known either all
around them.
Tonight, firefighters keeping up the battle to save homes amid
the deadliest week in California fire history.
The enormity of this disaster. We're only beginning to
understand
harrowing stories of the victims now emerging. The shepherd
family's car catching fire as they fled the flames. 14 year
old Kai didn't make it. The rest of the family badly burned. The
fire is now larger than New York City. This is how so much of the
battle against these fires is being fought by hands.
Firefighters spraying and raking the ground putting out hotspots
more than 3500 structures destroyed in Sonoma a team of
firefighters saving several homes in just a few hours. And
we were just literally running from house to house. It's super
smoky super high. You really can't see very well. Tonight
with hundreds of people still missing. We're learning
incredible stories of survival. She said you got to get out of
that house. Jan and John Pascoe say their daughter called to
alert them to the fire. I looked at
my window, and there was a wall of flame at my window. So that's
how fast it happened for us. We had no warning
their only option, their neighbor's pool holding each
other in the water. And countless family pets rescue to
the Sonoma County Humane Society treating cats with burned paws.
doing hard work there to help save the animals and that story
of the pools to something Lindsay Lindsay Janice back with
us from Santa Rosa tonight. And Lindsay, you were telling us
they're now estimating the damage to housing alone there at
more than a billion dollars already.
That's right, David at least 5% of the housing here in Santa
Rosa totally wiped out the damage estimates more than $1.2
billion. And you can see just how quickly people fled these
three wheelchairs left charred and mangled right outside this
house.
Man what a horrible story by the way. She she's from Schaumburg,
Illinois, which I think Rich suburb of Chicago.
Well, was that was she from before she went to London? Yeah.
And she's married
to Good Morning America. Senior broadcast producer John Faruq.
Farah kind of arcane for watching something like that.
Hey, like, good. Well, yeah, well, she looks like a real
journal.
Now journal. You don't have to overdo it. I do. So so does a
little snippet I have of this story. And I wanted to, I want
to discuss it. This is the from ABC. Also. This is the mailman
snippet. Okay,
Vicki Walker hugging this firefighter to say thank you,
firefighters across California saving lives, homes, and so many
family treasures. And this image, the mail truck still
stopping at mailboxes a haunting moment, but still a moment of
dedication.
Okay, so here we are. I know you
got us our United States Postal Service John should be proud of
that.
I'm kind of proud of it began I'm thinking maybe this should
have some common sense here. There is a house there's a block
of houses there's not a house there that just they're gone.
There's just nothing to the mailbox. There's a mailbox in a
stick.
What are those made of? How come they hang around?
I don't know but this apparently didn't catch on fire is one of
those rare is like an RFT bucks is not like in the house is out
by the sidewalk and is there and the guy is putting mail in it.
There's no house there. There's just a mail box. Okay, got it
delivered mail.
Oh, Armando, Armando. I bet you there's a rule about it. We've
got got a very famous mail carrier here in Austin.
Well you should get a hold of them intact on what's the deal
yeah he's never offended by the way luckily good not gonna go
postal on us.
Well, we do have we've we're pro post office we've always bought
sure it's yeah, it's it's a great institution is
astonishing. product. If you think about it. Yeah.
Yeah. It has his issues.
Yeah, but look what they do. But again, but again, common sense
here. You don't there's no house tenders. But there's a male
Beiser he puts male in it. It's a truck send mail truck. Hey,
won't let anybody drive around these areas but the mail trucks
Okay, good to go. Now here's my
problem. Why have they not been able to link this to Trump
somehow yet?
Well, they haven't. I think the same thing I said before, which
is that they're going to do the linkage in the in the post
mortem. And they're going to link it to Trump. They're going
to link it to global warming, they're going to link it all
kinds of things. But the real problem is that California is
such a Democrat run state that has been kind of kicked to this
curb by the Washington and Trump right they don't they'll be hard
to blame Trump for anything in California ever.
What do you think is you said was incompetence was your
feeling last time we discussed it? Yes.
I said I didn't like the way this was being handled because
it was it got out of control so quickly. Yeah. They didn't call
in the Calvary right away when it first broke out. I think it
was on Wednesday, maybe. And and then they they played they it
was all a defensive game after that, you know, telling people
to get the hell out and I'm just bothered by a suburb a
development a housing development on flat land, you've
gone through this, and I know I should continue complaint
continuous complaint of mine. The whole thing going up in
flames. I don't care if it the mile an hour winds or not. It
just doesn't. Yeah. doesn't sit out. Right. It just says to me
that everything is under is nothing safe.
Yeah. No, no. Get get used to it. Slave. You're not safe.
Please. But you said you said cavalry. And I brought up a
different topic, different clip. But I'm a guest. Segue. Yes, I'm
aghast that you don't have to point it out. That Canada is now
leading the social justice warrior movement. The I mean,
this is supposed to be our gig. All right. But no, they have to
go and take it one step further. I know we've talked about it,
but it actually is now coming to fruition, with certain names and
things that we just cannot use anymore, because they are
cultural appropriation or culturally inappropriate, Mr.
Byrd. What's
wrong with the word chief?
I think the administration here the TDSB made the proactive
decision to change the Toronto School Board TDSB, just given
the fact that it has been used as a negative word, a slur a
pejorative to people in the Aboriginal community over the
years. So they made the proactive decision to eliminate
it from the about roughly 20 or so people who had that in their
title here at the TDSB. And that's out of the obviously,
close to 40,000 staff were here, as here,
give us some examples of the titles that have been changed.
So for example, we had 12 chiefs within our Professional Support
Services Department. So for example, the chief of social
work, we had a number of those, those are now managers of social
work. So that's one of the decision you
know, I'm not the whole C suite has to go and I think it's gonna
happen here. I think it's gonna happen. She's Chief Executive
Officer. That is appropriation of American Indians. Um, all on
board with this. Where
do we have it in American Indian history that they call
themselves chief? Using the word chief?
Do you remember Aaron Purcell? No, he was the big pod show. Big
guy. Probably to 80 to 90 Big Guy. Dark skin. And he was PR or
something like that. You don't remember him? Would be I
remember what era guys
were in and out of there. Like yeah, yeah.
I remember one time saying, oh, yo, Chief, what's up? And I
didn't know he's American Indian. And he said, You know,
I'm really offended by that. And I'm sorry, I go, okay. I'll
never do it again.
I had the same experience once at a dinner party where I said
that well, that's a gyp
gypsy. Yes. One of the guys
was a Romani or
whatever, and he was offended. Yeah. Oh, god.
Did you can't use that word. I said, what he says is do it's
derogatory to toward gypsies. Yeah.
And I said the correct. The correct answer would have been
okay. I'm sorry, fag. That's what you should have said.
Yeah. That's what they should have said. Sure.
Well, I'm feeling this could get legs. The commander in chief. I
mean, it's a great way to get to bring Trump into it is the
commander in chief culturally appropriating American American
Indians? Well, where's commander, Commander in Chief? I
get it Jim. Executive Chief of Staff, Chief Marketing Officer,
Chief Executive Officers write the C suite chief CEO Chief
Operating Let us help everyone now by coming up with an
appropriate alternative. What can we use with the C? Besides
John C. Dvorak
would come up with showing the C does not lewd. Yeah, right. It
doesn't have to be a C although it would do which help business
cards chief petty officer was to see because yeah, you went up
Chief Petty Officer. Yeah, gotta go. Yeah. Chief, how about Chad?
How about just cheap.
How about head head? Your head marketing obviously head check
now. So now it's the same thing. So you said chief to this guy
just casually as Canada's?
Chief How you doing? The Avicii I'm a fan. You
don't know he was an American. Oh, I know. I didn't I do now.
Well, if you'd know there was American, he wouldn't even be
more appropriate. You're complimenting him.
Well, he was offended. He's easily offended.
And he's a PR guy. Yeah, he's on face belly macro. This guy. Wow.
Okay, well, let's see you had you don't like had? Well, let's
go to the synonyms and see what we got.
We have no choice but I think chief you do.
That is bad. The air champion think it'll happen here? Too
many money. It won't happen. But I think it's it's one step too
many
czar?
We already did. No, sir. It's no good. Yeah, that's appropriating
from the Russians.
How about just Chef? Chef? Chef executive officer chef would be
appropriate. When did that have to change too much?
Yeah, and especially if you're black.
Commander and chef will maybe have to work on it.
I got the synonyms here. Hold on a second. Okay. Okay. We leave a
champion of a champion. Let's see.
Champ champ executive officer. Okay. Yeah. Champ. Yeah.
Champ champion. First grand grand. No.
I mean, prime prime principal prime prime prime executive Oh
prime is good prime executive officer.
Yeah. Prime executive officer, I think Prime good work.
Primark. Good. prime prime is now you can use that as an
intern in French Prime VA. You can use it in I think that
probably.
Yeah, you could it would work everywhere. Cardinal primary
central ruling star superior telling consequential control
interior
executive officer has a nice ring to it. But I think prime
prime prime is it Prime Ministership. Yeah, prime prime.
Okay, we're done. Right? And Amazon Prime has to then
rebrand.
I don't think they do now. That makes it even better. All right.
Well, I'm glad you brought that into the conversation. I have a
little side note, since it came up in the conversation, I think,
a couple of times. And they know Horowitz talks about this. You
know, there's a big grocery store chain in Europe and in
Germany called all D Yeah, al
di Aldi. Sure I do. That was Al D. No, it's al di. And they had
their whole game is they have the stuff out in boxes and will
actually put it on the shelves.
i Yes. Right. And so it's kind of like cheap where they were in
fact, you had to give them that stuff in a certain kind of box
so it fits into their system. Yeah. Okay, so
basically, they basically take pallets of all the boxes, put
them in areas in a big warehouse, and they call it a
supermarket.
Yes. And they do quite well for themselves. Next to this coin,
which is a LDS al di. Okay.
Geez, you can take it from me, bro. Joseph. I grew up there.
Ya know, but we all make mistakes. And I made a mistake
on the clip. You fact check the title. Yeah, you smell it? Yeah,
you felt
you spelled it wrong. But I wouldn't have said I gotcha.
That's not That's not the worst offense in your
name. It's got nothing to do with anything. Here's what it's
got to do with the punch line to the story
today. Oh, story. Yeah, there are
actually two different all these all the Nord and all the sued or
north and south in the 1960s. Theo and Karl Albrecht couldn't
agree on whether or not they were going to allow their stores
to sell cigarettes. So instead of compromising, they divided
the company in half. Theo took the North while Carl took the
South. You can tell the difference by looking at the
logo. North's logo is a basic blue and white South's logo is
orange and blue. It's the southern Aldi that's a bit
fancier, and when it came time to expand to the rest of the
world, those countries were divided up to stores in areas
like the UK, Ireland and Australia are all Aldi suit.
While you're shopping at Aldi Nord, if you go into France or
Poland, there's only one country where all the Nord and Aldi
suits share pieces of the grocery store pie, and that's in
the US. You wouldn't know it though. And that's because all
the suit does businesses Aldi. Aldi Nord goes by a different
name Trader Joe's.
Oh yeah I didn't know that. Yes I did yeah
I knew I knew that I didn't know there was too but I knew that
they own Trader Joe's interesting yeah that's a very
it's a Trader Joe's is a nicer version I think of all the but
yeah it makes total sense it is it is very much there for me
there was there was an original Trader Joe's they didn't start
Trader Joe's Trader Joe's was started in the 50s by this guy
Joe and yeah, they was Joe and by the bite I think he's sold to
this to the all the group which was a holding company I bought
1979 So they've owned them for a long time. But I was never under
the impression that this was a German company
Yes, I knew that for sure. Yeah, but I knew somewhere about
Trader Joe's and but I did not realize it was two different
companies and so apparently the the North owns Trader Joe's the
Aldi Norte fight if I remember correctly from the clip
well one of the two yeah ah yeah I don't like it they're good
what a Trader Joe's Yeah,
well like it is one just one within walking distance in my
car I won't go there
Trader Joe's most of the stuff is pre package which apparently
all the specializes into. Yeah. Which is a lot of branded LD
branded. Yep. I've never been to an Aldi store so I don't know
but they stay talked about it. And Trader Joe's got a lot of
branded food this video Trader Joe's does Trader Joe's down
they have a spiel they have a great Millennials love it
because they've got a story behind every product. Yeah,
every product. Yeah, this was grandmother's secret recipe.
Yeah, it's always a story and stories sell to millennials if
you don't have a story.
Yeah. And all in all the wine has pretty labels.
Well, the wine they do actually they do. They bring in wine from
all over the place. Generally speaking, you don't get any good
wine there septum stuff you can get anywhere. But the fruits and
vegetables would bother me because they have this like,
kind of crunchy style of you know, everybody who goes there.
They're all Trader Joe's you go to Trader Joe's. The fruits and
vegetables are terrible. They haven't got anything good. It's
not fresh. Oh, no, they don't. They haven't. That's all nice
package. A bunch of apples are sold by the apple. It's just
very disappointing. They have good cheese. And which now makes
more sense as German owned. So the cheese selections were good.
Yes. Anyway, I thought people didn't know that.
Yeah, well, the Trader Joe Yes. But you know, it would be that
kind of stuff I catch because I still read THE EUROPEAN NEWS.
And before we I was
stunned by this. I can tell. I did old piece.
I have a Tech Tech request for a dude's name. Ben, I just got I
wrote it down. Okay, I need an image conversion script or
something? Yes. So I'm trying to I keep trying to whittle down
the automation of the process here. And the font, one of the
final things only I got a lot of things really slick. I need to
be able to take an image from the Art Generator, and what is
the format that it comes out in its standard format?
It's 540 by 540, I think something like that. And, you
know,
it's you know, it's 525 20 Oh, no, no, no, no, because I chop
it down to 256. Shoot, I don't remember what it is. Anyway, you
can download one and figure it out. And so I need three
versions that I need them renamed. And I just want to be
able to maybe some bake it into the all I wanted you to be able
to see here's the here's the image, I want to drop this image
somewhere it has to come back in a 256 256 and a 3000 by 3000.
And it has to be renamed and they have to be JPEGs. And if
you want to help send me an email I'd really appreciate try.
One of the
tools was actually built into the into the Art Generator.
Yeah, but bonked does not have time for
now. It's okay.
I'm going to show my son move by donate to no agenda. Imagine all
the people who could do that. Oh, yeah, that'd be fun
all right. We have a few people to thank, and we will thank
them. Starting with Rondo Williams $143. He says 101 plus
42 your invaluable karma please call out my boss bill as a
douche bag. He says he needs to be reminded to donate because he
quotes your show at work all the time. What does he say? No. He's
supposed to well, you know, probably just takes some of our
conclusions and uses them in conversation from
Sidda you said yeah, no. I did. No, no, no, he that's what he's
probably saying to his employees by Yeah, no.
should do that. Yeah. Or, or was the other one? It's the fact of
the matter. Yeah. Oh,
yeah, that's when you're watching TV with people. And the
fact of the matter comes out and people look at you, you know,
you know, you're part of the group.
Yes. Let's see, we have a number of that we use it there triggers
the big triggers at this point. They also remind you about the
show, which is really good, right, which
triggers me to get triggered. Right, right. Right, right.
Right. Right. Right. Right, right. I want you to play for
the day, right? At the end of the day, and the fact of the
matter is, yeah, if you want me to play, I would like you to
play not the second but before the show's over that guy again.

value for value and get out and get our town. Ring ringing
ringing through the donation segments again. Yes. We haven't

birthdays we got birthdays and we did our birthdays. They have
a
have a night for sure the next show because we have that one
check that didn't get posted. I get
I went through the last update from Sheriff Lombardo of Clark
County and pull the number of clips.
Okay, I only have two clips for this whole thing. Yeah. Why
don't
you do your stuff? I mean, I like analyzing what he's doing
because the words he's using are extremely interesting from a no
agenda perspective.
Good. Well, let's play the rundown I have on CBS is the LV
shoots shootings is not all of the whole rundown. But I still
want to tout the part of it I thought was important.
Lombardo also offered new insight into the changing
timeline.
I still stand by the time of 2159 Mr. Campos received his
wounds in close proximity to 2205
at 9:59pm hotel security guard Hey, Zeus Campos went to
investigate an alarm on the 32nd floor, but was likely not shot
until closer to 10:05pm. That's when he used his radio and his
cell phone to report that he'd been shot. Within seconds.
Steven paddock then turned his gunfire to concert goers below
his windows and the aviation fuel tanks about 100 yards past
the concert crowd at 10:17pm. Police arrived outside his room
12 minutes after the shooting began. Campos has not shared his
story with the media but his union released these pictures of
him getting an award for his bravery in the massacre. New
Court documents show that during an FBI raid agents did look for
medications, explosives, guns and concert tickets. When they
went to Patrick's mesquite home.
Did they find the concert tickets? What are they? What is
that about?
Oh, no. There are stories being built around this very
carefully. And I think we can kind of hear that verbatim in in
the Lombardo stuff that I've got. But man as
well, can I read it from a Greg Wu who? Who doesn't want some of
this stuff? Read but I can read it. Yes.
He's a producer. You mean? Yeah,
he's one of our producers. Been a listener for a while he says,
first of all the screw up in the timeline is specifically the
security card story boils down to a simple mistake by one of
the officers interviewing the security guard on the scene, who
wrote down the wrong time of the incident is reported. Hold
on. We should say that our producer gets this from his
buddy who's in at Metro.
He's in the police department. Yeah. Yes, exactly. It was not
reported anywhere as far as I know is that the security guard
apparently was checking up on loud hammering noises and right
here is where we need the Lawrence O'Donnell clip. That's
Stop the hammering hammering oh man oh damn I only have this
version I don't I have sound what's going on? Why am I
losing?
There's insanity in
the ISO though, is an insanity so we gotta we gotta put some
ISOs up for it because stop the hammering is just too too
precious to believe. Yeah Anyway, not hammering noises not
gunshots coming from the sweet paddock was staying and
according to my source paddock was trying to reinforce an
entrance door to the sweet and one of the bedrooms inside the
suite in order to barricade himself inside and the security
guard interrupted him at which point he shot him and started
executing the plan early before he could finish the main
entrance door and he knew there would be more security cops
coming because he knew they were going to be more. There's still
a lot of details missing. There's still a lot of evidence
being examined, like you mentioned several times already
says, you know forensic science is not like you see on
television. But what is known already is that the shooter was
planning to cause a lot more damage and the only reason he
didn't was mainly just like in the fact that he's probably just
a rookie when it comes to guns and explosives something his
brother keeps claiming paddock makes made a small cut out in
one of the windows and had the gun setup and aimed at the fuel
or gas tanks that were right next to the concert. And his
first shots right after the security guy interrupted him
were at the tank with a goal of blowing it up and causing
instant panic and then shooting at people in the street boasted
to the hotel as they could be running away from the explosion
but the tanks never exploded. So he had to improvise and does
from the police, by the way, as you've mentioned, yeah, yeah,
the improvisers started shooting in an area and the concert but
the process broke the window apparently was just a hole in
the wall and I was be fucked it up. And he also moved it to the
other window suite where he had a little better view of the
crowd and started shooting from the window but as he did the
gust of wind between the two bedrooms was from blowing up
second window cause the reinforced door he created
locking him in the room close the door on him with the wind
which is couple of this is the way they analyzed it with just a
couple of guns and only a small portion of the ammo he had
because he got blocked out away from bunch of the guns. Okay, so
this is why he didn't use all the ammo and guns he had seen
even this makes some sense. Anyway, he goes on. He says the
reason for the delay in this in the police took so long to get
him is he had to remember that the time nobody knew how many
active shooters there were in, because it's a typical tactic
for police's to clear each floor of the hotel one by one until
they get to the top instead of rushing straight to the 32nd
floor. That would take some time. I would like to add a
comment about security footage from the hotel which apparently
a lot of which is missing. Well it is true there's tons of
security cameras in those hotels the primary focus is only on the
casino itself trying to catch cheaters and the main entrance
is upper floors or seconds dairy systems. The hotels are not
paying nowhere near as much I would change that I would
believe I believe it too. I can tell from visiting these casinos
are starting to degrade more and more. I mean
that kind of coverage. You want to go to Airbnb. I mean, you
want to stay at a hotel.
I got it. No. Well, this doesn't really debunk they there was a
story about Airbnb guy, putting in giant
day that we start explaining each other's jokes. We really
need to just stop the show.
We gotta explain the joke. The pod is a desert like references
that are ridiculous.
Come on everybody very obscure. Everybody knows the line.
Nobody says he finishes up he says this information is
valuable. Also the last night I personally know one of the ER
doctors at one of the hospitals close to the strip working
during the shooting. And he told me that at least 80 to 90% of
the wounded people from that concert that he has seen were in
fact gunshot wounds in case anyone of the out there believes
that the Infowars words was saying and there's no evidence
of any victims of gunshots. Thank you for the great service
you provide.
Right? Okay. So that's good that you read that? I of course read
that because I was like, Wow, that's so long. I shouldn't read
that. But it's actually good in context. That and I think the
next time he talks to his neighbor or buddy or whatever it
is, he'll probably have some updates to the story. And this
requires a little bit of context the way Sheriff Lombardo the
does these updates to the press. Bright to the side of him and
he's always on camera, although I don't think he realizes it is
a special agent in charge. Now he's Special Agent in Charge
SAIC that Aaron rousse from FB from the FBI. And he also has
little statement but he's kind of unimportant. But while the CI
is reading what he calls the narrative, which is really what
caught my ear. And I really started listening to what he's
saying. He says, I need to read this narrative to you. Now,
typically, in today's usage of the of the word, it's kind of an
it has more of a negative connotation. Narrative is
something that is B is a general like a conglomeration of talking
points to explain something. But typically, if you use Ionis, I
have some facts for you. I know this word law enforce what I'm
going to expect from law enforcement. I don't expect them
to talk about I have a name
for you. I do not expect law enforcement to be using the word
narrative. It's, it's odd. I wondered if there was some sort
of police talk and we know what it sounds like.
I've not heard it.
So and then while he each time, he really reads a what he calls
a narrative. And I think it's two or three times in these
clips I have, then you see the Special Agent in Charge bobbing
his head, his body language is all about. That's exactly right.
Yeah. That he's always confirming it. He's almost
patron Lee. And that is because from what everything I've heard,
and it's kind of confirmed these clips, the investigation is now
under supervisory. It's an FBI investigation. Now it's federal,
but they're letting this guy give them and I think he's
telegraphing and doesn't even know it the porter Sheriff, he's
just a dude. So let's start with his narrative about the death
toll.
And a couple of these items I will read from the narrative
from the narrative. It's even better than I thought. I will
read this from the narrative. I guess that's the playbook or I
hate to sound conspiratorial, but it's odd.
Because I don't want my comments to be construed or changed
it that would be misconstrued. Yes, I don't want my comments
can
use comments to be construed please, if there's actually a
definition for that crude or
changed. So I wanted to ensure the accuracy of that. But most
of this conference will be done strictly through my narrative
provided to you. Okay, first and foremost, I want to give you an
update on the injuries. This has been a big deal on my mind, as
it has been the public. And I think it's important for you to
be given an accurate picture of what is occurring associated
with the injuries of the one October event, there was no
integrity question sociated. With that, as I've experienced
through the cyberspace. Now, this
is another part of the problem I have again, and you'll hear
throughout these clips, of defending himself and the
relationship with the FBI, and that we're not covering up for
each other. For them continuously to do this is also
not standard,
questioning my integrity. 58 is still the number of individuals
that have died. Now, this is an important piece, important 45
individuals, they're still hospitalized, some of those are
in critical condition. So 58 may raise by the grace of God it
doesn't. And we shall continue to move forward. The medical
profession profession will provide all the medical care
necessary, but sometimes it's people meet their demise outside
of our control.
Another very weird statement. The medical professional will
take care of everything, but sometimes people meet their
demise outside of our control. I know I'm really drilling down
into it, but this guy is almost an open book for linguists.
Okay, let me throw a little thing in here. I'm not sure what
I'm going to say is accurate. But it's an interpretation
possibility because a lot of it and here's what I'm going to say
a lot of sheriffs are elected they're not from law enforcement
they're elected officials. That's correct. They get voted
on and some of them are just boneheads they get voted in
because everybody likes him. So the guy could be just an idiot
could be who was being controlled that's what it sounds
like to me.
What he's being told what to do to this point because he doesn't
know what to do he's easy to get to get voted to be Sheriff
got it. Okay, that's a good point and good context fight
all the medical care necessary, but sometimes it's people meet
their demise outside of our control. So I'm hoping that
number does not raise today's numbers 58
He certainly has a high school education no hope the number
don't raise, raise the raise but it'll go up. We're gonna raise
the roof y'all now. Okay. Now the fuel tanks, another
narrative,
the fuel tanks. And I'm gonna read this narrative so my words
do not get changed. Come on, but I want to provide you some
information referencing the fuel tanks. It is believed the fuel
tanks were fired upon with intent. McLarens leaders have
have safety protocols in place which they reexamine. Following
any safety related incident, the leaders have already contacted
experts and fuel storage out of the abundance of caution, I am
more than confident that they will immediately implement any
changes or security augmentations. If they are so
advised it as I have been advised, there is a very low
probability that aviation fuel could be ignited by gunfire, and
the tanks are outfitted for continual release of vapors. So
that is the situation of the fuel tanks, any future
information that needs to be provided reference that will be
provided by the public information office out of
McCarran Airport.
So that's the narrative he shot at the fuel tanks, which is an
interesting twist, you know, if you want to if you want to
create a narrative, or if you want to give a guy some pieces
of the narrative to read, and this is kind of a toss away, but
I threw it in anyway, the
dates of the 25th versus the 28th. This was not breaking
news, no matter who believed it to be. So in this form, we were
aware of the discrepancy of the 28th versus the 25th. In the
early parts of this investigation, what we weren't
aware of is why the date of the 28th was utilized. In the early
portion of this, as I was provided this information as
part of the person registered in the suspects room, we have come
to learn to suspect did occupy the room on the 25th. And the
situation on how the room was compensated or paid for had
changed. And the name as part of the registration had changed on
the 28th to include Mary Lou Danley. So that was the
confusion associated with that no matter what the perception is
whether we were being non transparent, or we were
attempting to be subversive is false. I was acting on the
information at the time I was provided
it is really very defensive about all this stuff.
And he's been blasted in the local media, as I understand
the I'm not sure if the timeline fits. When did she go to
Thailand? That I thought, in my mind, this had happened a week
before maybe even longer. So this means she left the day
before or two days before?
Not the timeline we got originally No, no, no, this is
this is a great piece again, something you never hear about
when the shooter suicides himself. I've just never heard
this before. And I thought it was fascinating. And I'm also
curious, you know about, about these people's eyes,
the autopsy? Yes, there has been an autopsy performed by Mr.
Patek, or the suspect, or the suspect, whoever I don't know,
in the early evaluation, there was no ad nor maladies observed
visually, as a matter of practice in the forensic
science. His brain has been shipped to a appropriate
evaluation facility in order to take a microscopic evaluation of
the brain. So the initial report that there was no abnormalities
was a visual inspection of his brain. So it's yet to be known
whether there's any abnormalities to be presented at
a later
besides that he blew his brains out of his skull as part of the
narrative. What are they looking forward John? abnormalities in
the brain? Oh, I can tell you Oh, please. Enlighten me amongst
the four and
they were looking for signs of that. Football players disease
PTU whatever the hell it is where your
PTSD?
No, you mean? No, it's not PTSD. It was called trauma are Yeah,
yeah. You get a brain trauma from playing football and
there's a certain disease that's don't have the chatroom should
come up with it immediately. Traumatic brain injury. Yeah,
but it's got another more CTE, that's it CTS. In some, whatever
it is to on the anyway, they were looking for CTE. So that
could be because they don't have a motive for this guy. And they
say, Well, God, maybe he was a football player, and he's got
CTE and that's why he did it.
Could they be looking for anything else enlarged amygdala.
But
anyway, they were looking for CT they haven't got that. There was
another record. They were very specific about it.
Wow. That's an interesting and but I think that he did have
traumatic brain injury or CTE because it's been are on the
carpet. Yeah,
that's very dramatic. It's a very traumatic thing to
experience.
Yeah. Which is the baffling part because why would you? Hey,
John. Fine. CT is your brains been blown out? Hey, Dr. DeVore.
I
come looking at this here brain.
What do you think? Looks like he's got CTE
looks like I'm missing a piece of it. That's odd. And where
could the rest of the brain be? Wow.
Again, the conspiracy issue very, very troubling to our
sheriff
2217 12 minutes. That is when our officers first arrived on
the 32nd floor 12 minutes. You're very well aware of the
suspect fired at approximately 10 minutes upon our arrival on
the 32nd floor. The firing had ceased. We did not believe we
have continually had an active shooter. At that point, we've
conducted evacuations of the rooms adjacent to the suspects
room and you know the rest so there is no conspiracy between
the FBI between lvmpd and the MGM nobody is attempting to hide
anything referenced this investigation to dynamics in the
size of this investigation requires us to go through
voluminous amounts of information in order to draw an
accurate picture my intent like I stated earlier is to give you
information as I know it unverified to calm the public to
establish a legal case got it everybody understand that? Yeah
no question sir. Yeah, you
that the ends everyone understand that he listened
public
not to establish a legal case. Everybody understand that? No
questions or
no questions? No questions. No Bill Shut up. Alright, we're
almost done.
Okay, but before we go on I will mention that he is elected he's
the kind of a cop I guess he got elected to be sheriff or don't
really have any background on the wiki page just got elected
as Sheriff and during an election he's were and just to
make it even more funny. If you want to call this funny. He's a
Republican. Oh, yes. Oh, cool. He's like a dumb Republican
groovy.
Well, no wonder they put them front and center. That's great.
And he just reads the narrative. That's very good. Why wait,
let's do one more narrative of this is this is new. And I'm
surprised we didn't hear from our producers neighbor.
So before we close out today, I want to provide you another
written narrative. I'm going to read verbatim.
Please do so your words don't get to misconstrued or construed
or construe or, in other words, bring a better light to what's
occurred. In other words, listen up, and the carnage associated
with our community. There's some bright spots, and I don't want
anybody to take offense. When I've completed my comments
today. There's 1000 heroes out there, but I'm gonna bring it
home to my department, and I think it's important for you to
hear it. So the first narrative in the immediate aftermath of
the shooting surging. Garrett ever arrived at Reno in Haven
and saw the need for medical triage area for our Sergeant
Everett and other lvmpd officers along with the off duty nurses,
paramedics and firefighters triaged at least 50 gunshot
victims, they ran out of tourniquets, and began using
anything they could find to stop the bleeding to include their
own hobble devices they use during normal course of their
duties. These officers commonly took care of the wounded and the
dying as they waited for medical transport at times placing the
critical victims on the backs of trucks so that gets him to the
hospital quickly not all the victims made it out as the night
wore on those same officers were assigned to guard to deceased
victims not allowing any of them to be left alone
he started shooting at them
don't know this guy get hit anything from that distance from
the sounds of it
you know it's so well here it is. This is this is the one that
I
use in that dead dead little device that shoulder thing that
makes it the thing it's just gonna scatter shot so you know
what I also found out about semi automatic as well as it was
certainly if you use a bump stock or if you use a full
automatic like an M 16 There's something called cooking off
Have you ever heard of this and this may this may have happened
to the shooter the suspect the guy whose brain was on the
carpet if you see if you shoot you know 2030 rounds you know
the way these things function is that a new unless the magazine
is empty a new a new round comes into the chamber and it's so hot
that if you just put it on the ground and fill up you know put
a new mag in it can start shooting by itself it'll shoot
and then it might it could shoot up to two three rounds just by
itself without pulling the trigger because just so hot, the
shell goes off
that makes sense yeah. You see we saw the videos of these guys
using this bump stock and that thing to gravel it looks like
it's on fire. But maybe maybe they usually shoot out they
usually shoot out the hole. It may
be I don't know but I'm just saying I just so I have a video
in the show notes kind of fun to look. Look at now now this is
what I like the best is the last clip where he's telling the
press now what they need to write about joey not only is he
giving them the narrative, the written narrative, he's telling
them what to write. Yeah,
big goal. Public in
key individuals I want you to write about. One of them is
Brady cook, or Brady sustained four separate gunshot wound. And
when I say separate, that's the entries and exits. It's not
actually four separate bullets. And it's important piece on
Brady is the suspect was fired upon the crowd. As our officers
started to arrive via vehicles we got which Brady was occupying
one, it isn't readily apparent to me that He adjusted his fire
and directly toward the police vehicles. So the response to
those and he
says but he does say properly it is readily apparent to me, but
he's presenting this as something you need to write a
Brady
is the suspect was fired upon the crowd. As our officers
started to arrive via vehicles which Brady was occupying one,
it is readily apparent to me that He adjusted his fire and
directly toward the police vehicles. So the response to
those individuals I believe, save lives, no matter what his
personal vendetta is against the police or not. Maybe he was
preventing the wool from getting to his door sooner than later.
But he chose to fire upon the police vehicles. Brady sustained
a substantial wound to his shoulder, through his bicep into
his chest and out his back.
We should certainly have some body worn camera images of the
cops being shot at and that's pushing something new in he
hated cops. Yeah. I
think he's didn't give me any readers. Why? Yeah, yeah.
Well, they've got to build something. And I think I have a
much better idea. And we've kind of discussed it. But it would
really only take one company to it will get rid of a problem for
them anyway, Pfizer could just say you know what, we'll take it
under consideration. If you just say the guy was taking Chantix
to quit smoking it we would be done with the whole thing. Ah,
well, of course, the press could do story after story of who've
gone nuts.
That's never gonna happen. And let's go back to the Chantix
thing. The guy looked to me like a smoker. And I'm not gonna say
you can just look at somebody say they look like a smoker. But
you see pictures of this guy. Yeah, he looks like a smoker. He
looks like a smoker looks like a smoker, Mr. smoker, which means
it's possible that he took Chantix and they're just as the
thing that repressed it. They want to do
all of this to save Pfizer. Possible. Think about it. It's
possible. But yeah, the Chantix would be people have they wake
up in different cities they have you know, one guy didn't go kill
his neighbor shot him through the door. Interesting. There's
there's a story for you mainstream media and five M.
Yeah, there's tons of great stories.
Yeah, there are tons of great stories about the crazy results
of using Chantix. I mean, we spent a whole I don't know,
couple shows on the topic about three or four years ago. Yeah.
And we still bring it up on the when you have a mass shooting or
anything like that. You want to look into the PHARMAC SUTA goals
that guy's been taking, including, you know, wherever
the event took place, and they never do. Here's why. In this
case, they get to valley and well here's
Valley here's here's WaPo Whopper Whopper Whopper Whopper
Whopper August 9 Last year, the smoking cessation drug Chantix
has now played a crucial role in a second violent crime. On
Monday, a Maryland man was found not criminally responsible for
shooting his wife in the neck in their home in 2014. Because he
was found to be suffering from involuntary intoxication due to
Chantix. Yeah. Involuntary intoxication, it could explain
everything and it'd be done the cover up would be done. Yes.
Whatever. Whatever they're covering up
or.gov Maybe they're covering up Chantix.
I can't believe that.
I do. I can believe it is billions of dollars involved
with these pharmaceutical companies and liabilities,
nearly macro if that was the case, every one of those guys
whose dad would have wrongful death suit. Everybody who was
injured would have a suit this would be a nightmare.
Let me take a look what the fourth quarter 2006 Let me see
what Chantix does and revenue His
stuff is pretty easy to look up. Now they don't have any numbers.
That's too bad. Someone in the chat room maybe can find that.
But I'll bet you it's not that big. It's I mean, it's just that
can't be the biggest one.
It's the it's a. I'm not gonna argue that. The point is the
company that produces it has deep pockets. Yeah, they can't
afford to get sued out of existence. Right.
Yes, I agree with that. But still, it just seems like well,
maybe. I don't know. They're really doing this. It's hard for
me to believe that they're going to doing this to cover up
Chantix. I mean, it's
I would like to ask his girlfriend if he's a smoker. And
if he's been trying to quit. Yeah. Nobody ever does any of
this.
No. All right. I'll get on the plane to the Philippines.
No, she's still here. Now she's in Vegas.
Yeah. Probably. Yeah.
Yeah, of course, he's surrounded by FBI guys. You're not gonna be
able to go and ask her anything. Right. And
we still can't, we still call it and we still can't talk to the
Campo guy. He's being guarded. He can't You can't get to him.
You can't interview him. And he was supposed to show up for like
five network interviews and canceled at the last minute and
all of them. Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, that's pretty fishy. Yeah.
Now the fishy one for me the fishiest thing this week is the
Associated Press who come up with this and say, oh, yeah,
this is it. Yeah, that's it. Yeah, that makes me sick.
claiming this is the recording of the sound that made our US
diplomats ill in the Cuban embassy and living quarters
around the their private living quarters.
What you just played? Yeah. It should play through the whole
show.
Now, I want to tell you that I'm just looking at the chat room
and people said it really it really hurt them. Wow. I think
they're
just tripping out. Let's try it again. No need to know agenda.
We'll see if it works. You get speakers. I don't like getting
anything. That seems bad. I'll see
if I'll see if that worked.
Huge donations next
show. Or everyone's dead we need to have a rolling transcript of
the chat room along with the show sometimes it's funny. All
right, you guys. Sorry. I didn't mean to kill you. Right. There.
They're all MK Ultra triggered apparently.
So I gotta read off the topic,
I hope. Yes. She has a way off of
it. I got I was there's an ad for an ESPN ad for football or
something. I just found the copy. And I didn't have the
whole thing. This is the ad with bad info. This the copy that
whoever wrote this ad and there was it was overproduced, I'd
have to have somebody that came along and said, hey, hey, hey,
hey, what are you doing here? This is not what this is play is
that.
We feel that feel the ground moving beneath your feet. It's
because the ground is moving beneath your feet. You're in a
real earthquake, one that registers two miles away on the
Richter scale. The administration tried to stop it
once. They were worried it would break the stadium. What about
the Richter scale?
It's apparently a distance 200 miles beneath the Richter scale
of one to two miles away
on the Richter scale. God
what was this for what product it
was Jewish for a football game because in certain stadiums
people jump up and down and maybe it's like being an
earthquake. Well, she's miles away on the Richter scale is
like, that's make any sense. Under any deconstruction. I like
it a lot.
That's great. Guys watch football. Oh, yeah. Tomorrow on
the Richter scale, everybody. Yeah, here's my algo story of
the week. You may have caught what happened? I thought it was
one of our producers did a lot of work to get this off of his
DVR. And it's a little over modulated as a result. But
that's I don't think it's his fault. Discussion on CNBC about
Dow Jones newswire who put out a fake news story, an actual fake
news story that Google was buying apple and they were I
think getting nine Apple shares or via for one Google Sheet
there. It was, it was, and this dude's name Ben, you know, they
put in test data. This other thing that's Assam stock, which
is like x, y x, y x, y, z. And the end it actually trades but
it's a test stock. You so you can't really buy anything but
you could you could it looks as if it's trading because that's
the data is coming through. And this created a little problem
with the algos. That was
followed up with more wires that read, Google says yay, Google
gets nine Apple shares for each Google share to close over will
take over Apple's headquarters. Dow Jones apologized saying that
the wires were sent out in a technical doesn't. Unless
somebody was practicing somebody was practicing with something on
the newsfeed. So they came up with the most ridiculous I mean,
having worked at Dow Jones, and seeing how the sausage gets
made. Sometimes, when you're playing with some of these
prototypes, you come up with ridiculous headlines. And we'll
never have to
Microsoft takes over the world. We all in the old days, we were
trying to put web stuff together. But I don't know how
the same
thing when we started wsj.com You're playing around with some
of these things, assuming that no one will ever see them. And
occasionally you get a little goofy
for me. But I believe if I saw Amazon takes over the world of
Amazon, that was the headline, you know that that's not true.
When the deal was gonna close tomorrow than what it was. I
would still want to check to see whether it was true or not.
Google says yeah, that headline.
You know, there's AI that apparently I was talking to a
trader, there's AI that listens to our show. They take it and
they people try to trade off of it. Alexa, stop doing that. So
yeah. Scary, because it takes over the world makes me think
tomorrow, instead of what we're recommending, that's what I'm
worried about. Yeah, that might be a good idea.
I liked the story because it proves once again how AI and
machine learning is such a big bag of crap. Because here are a
couple of people and by the way, the algos did kick in, and they
they traded Apple stock up $2 For about 10 minutes and $2 in
the Apple stock. That's like whoa, what was going on over
there? That was a big jump. And it went back down. Once everyone
figured out it was a fake story. But you know that these people
are great algos by themselves, they look at that headline. They
see the nuance of Oh, Google says Yeah, well, that's got to
be bull crap. Yeah. Yeah, your brain is so incredibly good.
It's got all this knowledge, all these things stored away and
then somehow arrogant Silicon Valley has made the sheeple
believe that they can do all this groovy stuff with
algorithms. When you can't, the algos are dumb, they respond to
math and just not everything is mathematical. It's just stupid.
That you actually got that off? Yeah.
But the algos are my thing. And everyone's talking about the Oh,
the algos? Yeah, good. You should see the hype of AI
companies. Oh, my goodness. Yeah, it's just dumb. I tend
to make a list of them. Okay, and track them. And then we'll
take a look at the list and see which ones would be the perfect
shorts.
Well, that's an easy list. All of them are all
stocks you're talking about. Oh, no,
there's six. I think there's six of them that are you know, and
they get one little piece of news like oh, well, we've we've
completed almost like pharmaceutical like biotech, you
know? Yeah, we've completed our trial with our augmented reality
machine learning who could do Goldberg Machine and Bob. We're
good. Boom.
Like rockets. That's great. Yes,
yeah, they're all doomed. Yeah, I've
totally, it's just is not gonna happen.
I'm very bearish on AI. Yeah, I think we've got that impression.
Well, it's Tech News Sunday, you know.
So we do have the Boy Scouts story Missouri play that. Yeah,
I've read that in the newsletter. The
Boy Scouts have announced they plan to accept girls into the
program beginning next year. This comes after the Boy Scouts
first ended its ban and openly gay boy scouts and then
transgender scouts.
They're gonna have they're gonna it's eventually going to be the
boy and girl scouts are gonna merge at some point they have
to, because we can't have these separate things anymore, say the
Boys and Girls Club for years as well. Who the hell is the Boys
and Girls Club I realize is the boys club, which when I was a
kid is called the boys club. And it was you know, an after school
activity things center for boys. So you get burnt off steam and
then the girls bitched about it. And next thing, you know, the
Boys and Girls Club, right? And this was going to happen here.
But the more interesting thing was happening in New York Times
they ran a story about how beneficial it would be to boys
to join the Girl Scouts. I was just looking at that going oh,
there you go. There's our D masculinization of the male
species in the United states, you know, the deep balling of
the American man. And
it's not just contained to the United States that did Tillerson
quit the Boy Scouts because I'm surprised Amy didn't mention
that in her story. You know, Trump being a moron and all?
Oh, yeah, I'm surprised to,
didn't he? Did he quit?
I don't know. I mean, he's not still a boy scout if that's what
he was
the president of the Boy Scouts, Boy Scouts of America?
I don't think he's, I think they retired from that years ago.
Maybe it's an emeritus or something is on the board. We
could we could look it up. Yeah, screw it. We don't care.
I really don't. All right.
I think that's good. I'm good. I got other stuff. But
do do one. Why'd you gotta do one more fun thing just to get
us out?
Well, the one fun thing is kind of, you know, well, there's,
there's earthquakes in Holland. Oh, I'm going to skip that.
Okay. So that's just in the General Kelly. He's gearing up.
They got along. He apparently went in front of the audience.
Is it like I'm not quitting this bowl. Cray.
One in front of the White House press corps did
chalky wasn't gonna quit. He was bullcrap. And, and he gave a
long spiel about what he's supposed to do and not doing one
of the things. He says, Trump's tweets, what am I supposed to do
about it?
As far as the tweets go? I read in the paper, as you all know,
you're right. That, you know, I was, I've been a failure at
controlling the president, or a failure at controlling is
tweeting and all that, again, I was not sent in, or I was not
brought to this job to control anything but the flow of
information to our president, so that he can make the best
decisions. I have found that Mr. Trump from the day I met him,
there's not a lot and he's a decisive guy. He's a very
thoughtful man, I should say. He takes information in from every
avenue he can he can receive it, I restrict no one by the way
from going in to see him. But when we go into see him now,
rather than onesies and twosies, we go in and help him
collectively understand what what he needs to understand to
make these vital decisions. So again, I was not sent into or
brought into control him and you should not measure my
effectiveness as a chief of staff by what you think I should
be doing. But simply, the fact is, I can guarantee to you that
he is now presented with options. Well thought out
options, those options are discussed in detail with his
team. Then he comes up with with the right decision.
I kind of get this visual, you know, Kelly with a bowl of ice
cream. Come on. Come on. Now you can I want your attention. Hold
on a second. Hold on, let's do this. We know he's conducting
these Connecticut's
military intelligence you work in him to make sure he does the
right thing so we can get this wars going.
I don't think they care about the tweets either. I mean, I
don't I don't think it's important. People take it and I
don't
either. I mean, I actually I follow him, but he tweets it
some weird hours, so I never see his tweets. He's always buried
in the stream somewhere.
Yeah, but it's, it's like but people will tweet about their
food or whatever. And he tweets about bullcrap that he's
interested in, which reminds me about crazy, but it's, it's I
find it entertaining.
This came up in the conversation with the millennials and Mimi
and everyone she says and it was backed up by Erwin that people
are so upset these these face baggers. There's like so upset
about the way the world's going because you know, Trump, that
they stopped taking pictures of their food.
Watch it. Was this was this a?
Everyone agreed? Oh, yes. A lot less pictures of food on
Facebook than there used to be.
Did you know that Friday apparently was women don't go on
Twitter day.
No, I didn't know that. Yeah. Was it some Harvey Weinstein
initiative?
Let me see don't go I think it was Twitter May was all social
networks. Tina was reading it to me like did you No, no.
Very poorly done.
Let me see this right up. No, that's not it. No, I don't see
anything now. No, I thought it was a big deal. Does anyone know
about this? Hello. Does anyone know about this? Well, no, no.
Okay. Anyway, the solution by the way to the Boy Scouts, Girl
Scouts is just called the scouts and be done with it. And then
you can always have boys and girls internally if they want to
make some match, whatever, that's fine.
As we'd love to organizations in there, they think Don't think
they don't know how they can get him to emerge. I mean, he had
to, they're gonna have to.
It's old fashioned. They can just, they can just get
together, it'd be fine. As promised, and as requested. last
clip is of the tech millennial explaining fake news, right?
During breaking news, the likes of which we've been perceived as
fake post circular Vegas shooting misidentified this
identification is how does that happen? How do stories like
that? How do they rise to the surface of shutter? What are the
fake news, as I said about victim,
they were incorrect. And there were two cases that I think are
kind of worth highlighting in this context. So in one case, we
had Google right, people going to Google and searching for
information about possible sort of, you know, identities of the
shooter, and there was one name that had sort of emerged early
on that people had sort of believed might have been
responsible. And so they were going to Google they were
searching for this name. And instead of coming up with, you
know, a link to CNBC or CNN or NBC or some sort of reputable
news site, they were being sent to a essentially a sort of dark
forum of the internet right where hoaxes and misinformation
is often spread a place called 4chan where people were
discussing the identity of one of the believed sort of you
know, the one of the the names of someone who later proved to
not be the shooter. And that was one example there. And then on
Facebook, Facebook has a feature called safety check, right?
People go to safety check, and often in times of disasters and
other sorts of events. And alongside face to safety check
they show new stories, write new stories that are supposed to
provide context about what's happening and in this case,
Facebook was also pulling in misinformation pulling in sort
of hyper partisan news stories pulling in far right sort of
news sources also things that were missed identifying victims
and the shooter and
this was coming from Trolls either propaganda reasons either
pulling pranks whatever their false information was popping up
right at the top of the screen, Facebook and Google I think
there was another clip that had him with more right so
what yeah, you're gonna dig it up and I saw it Yeah,
it's better the other one where he throws in the middle of a
sentence right wrong, right? Yeah, exactly. Good enough. You
get the idea. All right. Thanks to let's see the oh the puke
thanks to Brian Longnecker and UK pm x for the end of show
mixes that we'll be playing today for your entertainment
