Adam curry, John C. Dvorak jackets. Oh 606 Time for your
Gitmo nation media assassination episode 206. This is no agenda,
remembering the day and coming to you from the hilltop
Watchtower crackpot command centre in Gitmo nation Western
the People's Republic of Southern California a in the
morning. I'm Adam curry
and from Northern Silicon Valley, and it is indeed. Oh 606
show 206 And soon it will be the time six I'm John C. Dvorak.
Greg Vaughn, buzzkill here and
maybe a little less ad lib there,
John. I kind
of by botched it's funny, you know, I didn't realise it was D
day until I saw I think I saw it on Facebook somewhere. And I was
like, Oh, let me go to the whitehouse.gov and see the
president you know, say something about it. Not a thing.
This is D Day. Yeah. Today's D Day and
they don't tell us about it anymore. They don't care.
I guess not. Am I my paternal grandfather. on my mom's side.
Albert Schauble actually a former German he was in the the
Normandy invasion. He wasn't he was there a D Day. He was on the
American side. Yeah, he was at RNM A Bridge Too Far. Dude, we
didn't had some major. I mean, I wish I didn't know him until I
was like 35 or something or 30. Because my grandmother got
remarried two or three times. And he passed away. Let me see
probably 10 years ago, at age like 97 in this comfy chair, it
just like went to sleep. I went through D Day and RNM amazing.
Hey, John. So in the morning to everybody, all ships at sea.
This is the no agenda British bread Corporation broadcast. And
it is later than normal for people on the Livestream. But
luckily for people down under and get my nation there. It is
actually in the morning that we're doing the live show.
Yep, it's a good thing for them. If they can handle it in the
morning,
and I have to say it happens from time to time. And I do get
called out for it when we make a really big mistake. And I think
I have to do a little Mia culpa here. I made I made a big boo
boo John. What? Well, you'll recall not once but twice. Did I
say after relating the story of Fox stealing my daughter shoe. I
said hey, you know, the next headline will be Fox steals
baby. I was wrong. It's two babies. You didn't say steal you
said that attack or eat eat. My email boxes like filled with
people saying oh my god, do you like write the news before you
make it happen?
Yeah, we do that.
And I'm like, wow, this is pretty amazing. So this happened
in in the United Kingdom. And it's funny kind of like as we as
we discussed, twin girls injured in suspected Fox attack.
Although that's the BBC The Times of London is now saying it
was a fox attack.
Yeah, I guess the foxes are sneaking these houses. Yeah.
It says snuck in through because it was really warm Saturday
night in in Gitmo, nation Eastern so that people had their
windows open the fox crept to the window these two nine month
old baby twin girls and attack them and they have scratches on
their arms one apparently on on her on her face. When his bite
mark bite marks. No wait a minute. This kid's
leaving these these little girls alone with a with a fox for
arrest those parents I say called Child Protective
Services. That's next. You watch. Anyway, so we had we were
close. Yeah, no, I
think actually I think you I think that qualifies as I hit.
Let's go to the official score tape. Yes. Do did he do did it
did how are we doing? They're calling it a hit. Yeah. So far
we
have bread Michael actually. Bret Michaels winning Celebrity
Apprentice, if only we could get some of the important stuff.
Right. Well, I
got another news story. I don't know if there's anything
predictive about this. I mean, we've actually we've produced a
lot of stuff and but we're not going to brag about it anymore.
Because it's just ridiculous that you know the whole show. I
hate to say this, but the whole show would be nothing but us
bragging. That's how good we are.
John, John at divorce act.org.
So here we go. Okay, you got one So it appears as if Stephen Hill
sword wielding porn star dies after allegedly killing a Tom
dawn.
Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait. I'd even Hill sounds like
two stories.
Stephen Hill who wants played Barack Obama. Oh, in the porn
spoof Palin, erection 2008 Oh, this
wasn't Neyland Palin.
No, this is a different one. This is erection 2008
Okay then I'm then I'm thinking of the wrong porn actor. I'm
sorry. Okay. It's a
cue wasn't a nominee. Oh, yeah. I mean, there's probably a
number of Obama's in the business. They're gonna maybe
think twice about it. Because the way he died was kind of
dubious. After holding authorities at bay supposedly
for eight hours. I guess he must have a huge one. For SWAT
officers use the stun gun to end the standoff said LAPD officer,
Bruce Sutton. He jumped down off the cliff after he was tased and
fell to his death.
Oh, right. That sounds like a very serious case of to to the
head. Totally. So that's not okay. I mean, you can't be tased
and people who are on a cliff that's just wrong. Yeah, that
doesn't sound right but
if you were taste how do you jump out when you're when your
Taser drop? You know jump? I don't know. I haven't been tased
bounced off the some birdie pot Bharti well this is a very
sad day for the pornography industry. This is a very sad day
for the pornography industry. Yeah,
they lost another robot. And
okay, this is not good. All the good ones have to go first.
This is horrible. Yeah. Good day young.
So we there's a couple things we definitely have to get into but
perhaps we can talk about do we have executive producers that
anyone that support us for this show?
Yes. And let me get to them immediately. Did you do doo doo
is what I call immediate. Okay, we got to two executive
producers that followed by a an Associate Executive Producer.
Okay, okay. And the three there but again, the two guys are 333
dot 33.
They're lucky number and they're loading up on their their triple
play for an automatic knighthood,
one from glocester Ontario is Howard Johnson. And he wants to
be a deduced member of the choir. Plus a down payment on
knighthood.
Youth band de deuced. All right with that when they're our
dog, he's good to go. Yeah.
Oh, Joe. Hi, Joe.
Joe, Joe and then Jason chomo. Jamel or Jamel? I think it's c
ch o m el from San Diego, California Nevada 333 33 deer
Hello John and Adam I've been listening to the programme for
quite a while now and then even though I don't agree with
everything you guys say who does? No agenda is consistently
the first podcast that was doing always find myself looking
forward to the next episode in the morning. Please keep up the
good work. I would like to take this opportunity to de douche
myself. Oh my gosh. You've been de douche donation my first step
toward knighthood another one for very similar to the other
one. It's funny, funny. And then our Associate Executive
Producer, I'm not absolutely sure this may be the first
female associate or
Well, no. And we we have, we have ladies we have we have
ladies nights, but
they don't know that they came in when we started the producer
programme. Okay. So Deborah Hutchinson from Mooresville,
Indiana, to 16
Oh, yeah, from Zydeco his restaurant they donate 10%. Of,
of wind when I think Wednesday's takings
are Thursday. If you mentioned no agenda. On any Wednesday,
if you mentioned no agenda on a Wednesday or Thursday, you get
10% Oh, that's a 10% of your check goes to no agenda and you
get a gift certificate for your next visit. Go to zydeco.net for
menus and directions in is that Mooresville? Right? Yeah.
Mooresville Indiana?
Yeah. And that's z y de ce o s.net.
I really hope we can get to Indiana or these days, John.
Yeah, I
will. Go to Chicago. I'm gonna make a point of going down
there.
That would be so awesome. We have we have so many. Miki and I
were talking about you and I and of course she'd come along
because she'd be our impresario. She says we've got to go to
Australia. So we're crazy. If we don't go we have we're having
breakfast. Yesterday morning. Of course had a fantastic day
because it didn't have to prep at night or anything like that.
So we had breakfast. There's the earth cafe in LA it was like
crazy busy with tourists and went next door as a couple of
Australian people you know, like older People with their son, who
apparently lives in Los Angeles, and I was looking at his plate
and he has a really amazing cheese plate and Excuse me, what
is that on the menu? And so I hear he's Australian. And I saw
you and of course, like my grandfather, you know, I'm
getting old now. Are you people from out of town? And then she
goes, Yeah, we're visiting our son here. Oh, welcome Los
Angeles. Sydney. I love Australia. And I told him a
little bit about the documentary and I did and, and I just looked
at these people, and I knew that if I laid out the Hey, by the
way, everything's cool. Except for that dickhead Kevin Rudd.
And I hit I nailed it. You know, the old guys, like I know got me
saw it. Just went off. He's like, Oh, my gosh, this some
hate for that guy down there.
Yeah, it was probably the number of Americans who even knows who
he is.
That was probably surprising to them. Yeah, yeah. Anyway, thank
you very much. To our executive producers. Howard Johnson. Whoa,
Joe and Jason show mill. I think we should just say show Mel. It
sounds kind of classy, and are associated second producer
Deborah Hutchinson. And of course, the series producer for
the month of June, Andrew MacKinnon. Thank you for the
support. Everyone else, please go out propagate the formula.
Our formula
is this. We go out. We hit people in the mouth. Hell yeah.
And get ready to all say it together. Everyone in the chat
room, refresh your radios. scream at the top of your lungs.
Shut up, stay.
And I want to remind anyone who wants to be an executive
producer that if you go to no agenda show or divorce.org/n A
and go to the donations link, there's a special thing you can
check. You can go in and do it that way. And you will get
anybody over $200 gets to be a executive producer. Yes.
No knighthoods, though today, correct? No.
And we should, you might as well remind them what good the
executive producer title is?
Well, it's extremely good to get you gigs. So you can put it on
your resume and your email signature. I see it come by all
the time. It's also good for me when someone has it in there as
a executive producer or Associate Executive Producer,
have no agenda episode and they give you the episode number. And
it is recognised. It's a credit. I know last night. Mickey as a
SAG member, she gets a special deals on stuff besides great
health care. There's these free screenings at the Directors
Guild of America. And, I mean, if you can get into one of
these, it's amazing. First of all, it's free. But it's a
theatre the way a theatre should be. It's this you know, the
screen is fantastic. There's not a bad seat in the house. The
sound is just amazing. It's tweaked everything is the way it
should be. Because let's face it directors do their screenings in
this in this theatre. And, and there's a couple of rules. One
is no food. No popcorn, no talking during the movie. Shut
up. Although last night's movie, there was lots of talking and
laughing but it was okay. And also, you were not allowed to
get up until all the credits have rolled, which I think is
cool. And it's there's a real respect for the movie. Now. Of
course last night. It was Sex in the City too.
Well, hold on a second. Yeah. You went to see Sex in the City
to
Yes, and I have a recommendation. Yeah, I have
one, two. Okay, here's for mine first. If you are currently in a
relationship, I warn you now guys do not go to this movie
with your wife, your girlfriend, your spouse or even your
boyfriend for all it will only discussion can come from this
movie. It is not a good idea. Stay away. Bad. There's nothing
but bad things to talk about afterwards.
Well, I think that's good advice for people in a relationship. My
advice for people not in a relationship is not to go to
this movie.
It's really bad.
It's just that you know, let the women go to it by themselves.
It's like It's like eating from going to where Tom is better on
DVD.
The thing is it's two hours and 15 minutes and it's like a 90
minute movie yeah and it's absolutely and it's like three
stories in one it was just like what and it's an insulting movie
anyway don't get me started because you just
did insulting go on will give us the spoiler there's no do it
no, I don't want to talk about it. It's just it's just it's
insulting on so many levels intelligence at the top
I didn't see the the first movie I mean, I will watch sex in the
cities occasionally once in a while and I thought that the the
whole thing well, they tried
they tried to put a storyline into it and they tried to you
know, say look, you know, it's okay if it's just all you know,
gay stuff and fashion stuff and I can handle that then don't put
like relationship stories and and stuff that's going to just
beget conversation later. Anyway, so the big news coming
out of The global government is a report from the Council of
Europe. Parliamentary Assembly, better known as pace. Would you
believe it, John, that after how many years we've been harping on
swine flu? How many years
have actually we started harping on swine flu? I
started harping on it first, I
think, yeah, we're on the same show, but I jumped right on, it
was only a millisecond behind you. Yes. Not like I took a show
off. So I have but I didn't do it that day. We you caught it
right at the beginning. And you did. And, and you made a point
of saying you think you're calling it as bullshit as soon
as the first story hit about the about the pig farm in Mexico?
Yeah. So the report that came out says, well, as it turns out,
the scientists at the World Health Organisation who will
responsible for identifying, raising the threat level to
pandemic level after changing the definition of a pandemic?
Turns out they had rather close ties to manufacturers of
vaccines and antiviral medicines, such as Tamiflu,
which they did not publicly disclose.
Wow, yes, donner.
And then Margaret Chan this.
We have to mention, by the way, we also talked about the fact
that we were getting reports from people pointing out the
fact that these pharmacies were getting kind of semi not quite,
but almost expired Tamiflu during the panic. So they could
dump it up, you know, get it out. Get rid of it, get rid of
it, get out of inventory.
So this woman who you really dislike Margaret Chan, Miss
Swan, yes. said well, you know, yes, we have of course, everyone
that we always ask for disclosures always asked for
disclosures. However, however, the committee members, you know,
they had to they couldn't disclose it. And the reason why
is to, quote, protect the integrity and independence of
the members while doing this critical work, but also to
ensure transparency by publicly providing the names of the
members as well as the information about any interest
declared by them at the appropriate time. She says I do
not I think their decisions were driven by the existing and
evolving conditions at that time. And what the best
scientific information was telling telling us it's very
easy to look back through a 2020 lens and essentially be an
armchair quarterback. It do we were calling the game from our
armchair as it unfolded. We weren't way
back was at a quote from canto Chan. Chan whatever name is the
who are armchair quarterbacks Oh, yes. Oh, it doesn't even
know what football is.
It is a PR company is probably Hill and Knowlton.
It's bogus. Yes. Probably one of these guys because she's from
Hong Kong. What does she know about the term armchair
quarterback? What a crock a drip.
Well, we have a jingle for that bullshit, addressing the
possibility of industry influencing or stinger.
Addressing the possibility of industry influence on the World
Health Organization's decisions, the spokesman said so this is
the spokesman on identified the World Health Organisation based
its decisions on strong public health considerations. I don't
think there was any indication from our perspective that their
decisions were influenced by industry in any way. Shut up
slave on the spokesman. I'm a spokes hole.
A spokes hold.
It's a new one you like it spokes hold, gives you kind of a
visual. So. So now of course, we really need to call a couple of
things into question. such as Why did everyone jump on board?
Why didn't we have our fabulous scientists in the United States
and around the world? Question this. And these are the same
people who are bringing you the war against assault, the war
against alcohol. And maybe those reports and studies aren't so
good either. Or maybe they have some ties to people that they
should be disclosing that which they're not.
Yeah, but no one and then of course, the new scientists just
today. You know, that guy that idiot who did the denialist
book? Yeah, he's like a guy I don't know. He's got these other
guys picking up on this concept and they're writing there's a
scientific explanation for denialism and sciences and and
then this article I just found it I just got saw it this
morning. It's just like, it's just it's the same lockstep Fash
lockstep fascist crap. You know, nobody can question this. The
phoney baloney information that's out there. And if you're
on the site, everybody's the total agreement. And that kind
of thing, just knowing ya know, it's
it's very annoying. But now you have to question all those
people who stood in line and were frightened into into taking
a shot. Were they just guinea pigs? Do we know? Will we ever
know? You know what, no. guinea pigs, but I mean, you have to
question everything now. Of course, I got a couple of links
under swine flu in the show notes at no agenda. show.com If
you see like the ABC News with George Stephanopoulos.
I didn't see it today. I didn't see it today.
It's from yesterday. douchebaggery so first of all,
George Stephanopoulos died and made him Anchorman. And if he's
on Good Morning America now to is just this weird. So they do
this whole story. And the only thing they're saying as well,
you know, it's down and in flu likes in symptoms, which are the
same as jobs saved or created. flu like symptoms are down so
they couldn't even get enough flu symptoms. It had to be like
flu to just
too late in the season. So it's summer. It's upon us. Yeah. I'm
sorry. But what bothers me is somebody actually was on one of
these network shows, and said, This is bogus. This is crap.
This is this is bunk.
There'll be fired. Oh, yeah. You're off the air.
I mean, you're off the air for just asking whether Michael
Jackson was murdered.
I'm still waiting for him to call back and say, hey, it
was good. Thank you for giving us the tip. Yeah, the yet
nothing.
The planetary premiere of the news. All right. It's okay.
Because now we have they're working on some new medication.
John is not actually in the form of a vaccine. But of course,
there's a pill now to help banish painful memories.
Yeah, definitely talk about this a couple weeks ago. We did think
we forgot.
Yeah, I think was on the list. So they've, they figured out
that there's a protein called BDNF or you'll love this brain
derived neuro neuro trophic factor that can help you relearn
painful Association from stressful, stressful situations.
Yeah, dehumanise. Yeah. Right. So but you know, there, there's,
oh, this will be great for soldiers. Of course, we're gonna
be at war for them. Robotic case. Yeah, exactly.
Who knows what After Effects, you know, after getting a shot
up with this stuff two or three times what it will do to you.
Who knows,
you might go mental or something? Yeah, well, but
everyone's like, Oh, this is good. And this is really
awesome. Science is in on this one.
Well, I was gonna head in a different direction. Okay. So we
got a bunch of news stories are cropping up one after another.
And we just read this one January 12 2010. This is like
one of about 10 incidents. A lot of these aren't getting played
up enough. A lawyer was walking down Fremont Street in Boston,
when he saw these three police officers struggling to extract a
plastic bag from a teenager's mouth thing that, therefore
seemed excessive. For a drug arrest, he pulled out his cell
phone he was immediately arrested.
Oh, yes. This is the cameras as weapons mean.
Yeah. And there's one that came in interesting. There's a bunch
of them. There's that guy. Everybody in Maryland, if you
take a picture, you're subject to arrest even though the lawyer
said this. They're enforcing a law that doesn't exist. So
everybody's full of crap. What is this,
but this is already law. Under Section 44 of the Terrorism Act
in the United Kingdom. It's already law. You are not allowed
to photograph a police officer. It's Law Section 44. And they
can quite they can take you in without even having any reason
to other than suspicion. This is where we're headed.
Yeah, no, I know. Nobody's doing anything. Public is not
objecting to this. This was bothersome. Anthony grey, or a
Maryland man who was arrested as another story was arrested for
posting a video of a traffic cop to YouTube. By the way, here's
the deal get at an account at YouTube. That's anonymous. Go
through a proxy server by the way, we have no agenda proxy.com
use that as a good proxy. So no agenda proxy.com is good for
listening to the show and companies that can't you they
won't they got it blocked or in countries that have it blocked.
Who knows? Anyway, no agenda showed no agenda proxy.com I
think there's another one we have to we have some notes.
Yeah, I got it here. So anyway, Graber was pulled over for his
motorcycle by Milton state trooper Ober owner owner EULAR
he EULAR draws his gun during the stop for no apparent reason.
Graber was wearing a helmet cam. Yeah, graver thought Milner's
actions were excessive and he posted the video to the internet
days later. least called the home of his parents. He was
arrested, booked and jailed. He was charged with violating
Maryland's wiretapping statute. In an interview he gave to one
of the bloggers he said that he told them that the judge, quote,
the judge released me after he looked at the paperwork and said
that is seemingly violation of the wiretapping law. And then it
turns out, the judge did release some dropped the case as a
matter of fact, but that wasn't what happened. gravers due in
court next week, he faces up to five years in prison is because
the state's attorney Joseph Caselli, a douchebag Whoa, whoa,
whoa. is also charged Graber with possession of a but by the
way, it's probably illegal in Maryland to call somebody a
douchebag. Oh, yeah, we're going to we're still going to get mo
baby. Well, I'm not gonna go to Maryland. Yeah. He also charged
Graber with possession of an interception device. This is the
new one,
an interception device. Oh, wow. Do I detail what that is? Well,
the device
would be gravers. Otherwise perfectly legal video camera.
This is great. But of course, the news is not going to report
on this because they love it. It's like, yeah, give me give me
to those citizen journalists. Get rid of them. Yeah, we're the
only ones who know how to do journalism. Get me to them. We
don't want that.
Yeah, of course, the next scene Oh, those guys will get clubbed
by the same cops. But and the cameras are expensive.
Well, the this actually came from Eric the shill, the Federal
Trade Commission. This is a right along the same lines.
Although more you know, anti internet is seeking ways to
quote reinvent journalism. According to a draft proposal
from dated May 24. The agency thinks government should be at
the centre of a media overhaul. The idea is to save the industry
they should the industry, the news organisations or
you mean the ones that couldn't see their own demise coming down
Broadway is a marching band, they didn't figure it out, give
me a break. They
need to agree on a mechanism to require news aggregators and
others the quote and others at when were basically news
aggregators, to pay for the use of online content, perhaps
through the use of copyright licences. In other words,
according to The Washington Times government policy would
encourage attacks on websites like the Drudge Report, and you
know, and like it or hate it, you know, Drudge Report is
definitely a source of news.
It's an aggregator of headlines. It doesn't do anything more than
that. Yeah. And the fact of the matter is headlines, which can't
even be copyrighted. As far as I know, like book titles, I could
be wrong about the headlines. But typically speaking, book
titles are not copyrightable. And I would assume headlines
wouldn't be there because you can't, you know, most headlines
are read, or either redundant, or they're used over and over
again over the years. And most of these websites that are
aggregators just have the headline, and you know, and then
a link to the original site. What is it? What's wrong with
that? Well, who cares? I mean, what's the big deal? I don't get
it.
The tax would hit other news aggregators, such as Digg, FARC,
and Reddit, which not only gather links, but
provide these guys this is how stupid these people are. They're
trying to tax themselves out of business. These these
operations, Reddit and Digg, and all those other things. Anyone
who's ever had something linked to dig knows this gives you
1000s and 1000s and 1000s of readers that you wouldn't have
otherwise had under any circumstances whatsoever. So you
want to tax them out of business. So you're fading model
you're fading business model, which is in the toilet already
is going to worsen because you're a fucking idiot. John
Cena, borax.
Nice one, well timed. You know, this show would be a lot
shorter. If we could only do headlines though it'd be a lot
easier for us. We just like you were essentially we'd be like
there's in the Morning John reports who overstated h one and
one threat in the morning to banish bad memories in the
morning.
A couple of douchebags in there would help. So we did most of
this is Fair Use that they're trying to tax his horse horse
manure. Yeah.
Well, but it's interesting, because that's a draft proposal
from the FTC. They've had another a number of weird
things, but it's just more more internet bad. Get rid of the
internet.
Well, you know, here's what here's the here's my little
prediction. You're gonna this will crop up. It's already
cropped up once or twice. It'll crop up over and over. They're
going to try to licence journalists.
Oh, yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Because then you'll be efficient
that you know, do you remember there was a time when you had an
official an official international press card and you
could not get in anywhere unless you had one? And I think that
this was handed out by I want to say like United Nations or, or
the some what was the wasn't it like a United Nations of press
corps at one point? It was it was like a read hardcover,
almost like a passport size thing and that was your official
press card if you didn't have that you weren't a journalist.
I've never had one.
The problem is we have what's called a constitution. And we
have a Bill of Rights. And in there it says you do the right
to freedom of the press, and then this not so it's not
defined in such a way that it doesn't include blogs and
everything else. Anyone can be a member of the press if they just
want to report. Well, it's all it is. And I think that there's
freedom, I think that somebody should take on this camera thing
as a freedom of the press issue, because all the guy's doing is
reporting on his situation. He's recording a cop standing there
pulling his gun waving around like a big shot. And he's got it
on tape. He puts it on YouTube. It's it's a news report. Well,
how is this not a news report?
So the report also this again, Washington time, so I take this,
you know, with, with some authority report also discusses
the possibility of offering tax exemptions to news organisations
establishing an America for for reporters and creating a
National Fund. For local news organisations. The money for
those benefits would come from a new suite of taxes, a 5% tax on
consumer electronic devices such as iPads, Kindles and laptops,
that let consumers read the news allow the slaves to read the
news. And this could be used to encourage people to keep reading
the dead tree version of the news. Well, this is the
Washington Times other taxes might be levied on radio and
television, spread spectrum advertising and on cell phones.
You know, we just got to keep our eye on this man. This is the
kind of stuff that you know, you wake up one day and you're
thinking about Lindsay Lohan. And then before, it was like,
Hey, wait a minute. I need a licence for this all of a
sudden,
yeah, well, you know, the licence is like the British with
their you can't have it live. Americans always forget that. In
England, you have to have a licence for a television set in
your home.
Yes, it's like 350 pounds a year. And it's in its that's for
at least one television set. You can get one only for radio, or
the wireless. But then you know, the and
you have two TVs, you have to pay for two of them. No, no,
just one my poor daughter though. So she, this is how kids
think. So I think she has a big flat screen TV that was part of
the household that got divided. So that's in her flat, and the
aerial broke or something because she has that free view.
So you can basically you can stick a wire in the air and you
can get digital digital TV, but I guess the aerial broke or
maybe the some went wrong, no reception. And she got convinced
that it's because she didn't pay her television licence tax. And
I'm like, Baby,
this isn't she ever taken one science course in her life?
Well give the kid a break. But here's the worst thing. So then
she goes, she's like, okay, and you know, and she goes to pay
for the tax which is 350 pounds. She hasn't she comes up like 20
pounds short. And so her card gets declined. I only found this
out yesterday, because I keep telling her do not do not waste
your money. They don't know where you are gives a crap. But
because she did that, and it got declined. She's receiving very
threatening letters, we know where you are, you're in that
lead, literally, you're in the database, we know where you are,
you must pay now. So now she has to pay for it.
So you're thinking that she could get away with not paying
because she was in a block of places that they couldn't
identify? Because you know, they have these? Yeah, they have
these trucks that roam around and identify I know, but you
know, I just want to save the kid couple 100 pounds at me,
essentially.
No, I gotta pay for it. Now you got her in trouble.
And if you don't pay for his, like 1000 pound fine or
something. But that money does go to fund the BBC. In all
honesty.
That's what I read corporate read corporation.
So I've been watching. I know you were out. And I don't think
you were watching you on some college drunken stupor weekend,
whatever. I don't think you were watching a lot of C span. Let's
put it that way.
Nobody overseas Coincidentally, I have a C span clip that's kind
of unique. Oh,
can I do mine first?
I don't I'm not in a hurry. Okay.
So the President, you know, even his, his as you know, I'm a big
fan of the weekly weekly address from our president. And he's in
Louisiana. And he's doing it from a shrimp and boat. And so
the I'm not kidding. Yeah, really. And so it's in the
green screen.
So the the President has thrown water in
his face now. Well, this is
what's interesting. So the President is down on lab. Let me
let me finish the way machine. So the President is down there.
He's down there for the past. Last week, and it's all about
shrimp in and fishery and, and tourism and shrimp in and
fishery. And he's having some shrimp with, with the shrimp and
company and of course it's horrible because of this oil
spill. There's no shrimp and going on and I don't know if
they can't shrimp or they're not not allowed to shrimp doesn't
matter. The shrimping industry is completely destroyed. But
what what interests me is this little ditty. Now it's it's
about two minutes, I do want to play the whole thing. This is
representative Melancon, and he represents a parish in Louisiana
and he sat down it was on C span was really interesting was
almost like a like a flip video cam, there was only one camera
shot in like an a council council meeting room or
something. It was really a kind of an unprofessional thing. So
again, the same the seen all week long as the President's
down there, where the shrimpers are screwed, the seafood
industry is screwed. And this guy actually tells it like it is
when you realise that the petroleum industry started in
1947 in Louisiana, that the drilling ban that has been
called out and immediate drilling ban is actually going
to Well, there's another representative here who says
he's going to kill people. And that's probably the plan. He
says, First, let's listen to this representative as he is
talking about the atrocity of the drilling ban and it's
interesting to listen to the federal government's response
now. This is the C span report in
Canada suggests that we tripling our assets to thing and this is
me and this is not for Congressman MonoSol but what's
gonna hurt terrible in Paris to worse right now is the
moratorium and the ban on drilling. Please understand that
Tara bone has worked with the Hartfield and, and seafood
industry for years, a lot of people go from seafood to
homefield, Hockfield, to seafood. And right now, the
economic impact on the fishing industry has survivable BP has
been coming in and making claims, we we believe that the
response is getting to be better that we think that there's an at
least if they can cap it, that there may be some hope for the
future. For our fishing industry. Our biggest problem
right now is the whole field ban, where they discontinued
drilling. And that 3500 feet is the is the minimum. And that
they I mean, the maximum that they letting, and we had
somebody that was at 1000 feet, drilling in 1000 feet of water.
Throughout the day, they only had 2000 feet left to go. And
they were told to cease and desist. All these rigs are very
expensive, the horizon was $500,000 a day, there's no way
that is gonna be sitting around for six months, and what's going
to happen, they're going to actually go to other countries,
once they there, they're not going to move back at the end of
six months, it's going to be a horrendous impact in our area.
And right now, easily, we're going to have many, many 1000s
of people that will be impacted. And I'd be willing to bet that
at least 60% of my parish and I have 120,000 people are directly
or indirectly affected by the all field and they say percent
60. And that's what I would think would guess I would be
employed or directly or indirectly understand they have
all feel people that work on the rigs. They have both companies,
they have catering companies, they have machine shops,
fabrication yards that build the rigs. All of this is going to
come to a screeching house. And there is and this is the
critical thing with BP or the spill. They have a resource to
go to on this moratorium. It's not compensable by anybody. So
this is a loss that we're going to we're going to have and this
the outfield drilling is without question. Such a significant
problem that it will affect my community and my parish. More at
this time, then the House bill will
we'll have in front so then we have the St. Bernard Parish
President Craig tufaro, I don't have audio from him,
unfortunately, he says quote, I would be betting the plan is to
let us die.
And that's it. That's the plan.
The guy comes right out and says it. It says you know, they just
want to kill us. I mean, so I don't understand. Economically
speaking what I'm hearing is and of course is Just a couple guys,
but their parish presidents saying you know, yes, it's
survivable. The, you know, the seafood industry will get over
it. But a lot of people certainly in seasons, you know,
the big the big money and if you fly over, you know, this
Louisiana coastline. I mean, it's all petroleum. I mean,
that's what the industry is there. But why is everyone being
focused on this to me? Sure, it sucks, what's happening, but you
can't just like shut it all down for a number of reasons. One of
them being people are going to starve.
Yeah, that's against Obama's idea of a jobs programme. Hey,
so I don't know. It's just it's the sorry situation that, you
know, one of the things and I don't know it just so poorly
handled on every level. Everybody's an alarmist, you
know, especially the people in Congress. Oh, and then all the
news media. They're running around like chickens with their
heads cut off. Go. Hell is gonna break loose. We had some in the
office the other day say they asked me the question. I won't
say who is
at our office?
Yeah. asked me the question. Do you think it's gonna ever be
able to stop and if they don't stop it? Will all the oceans
just be filled with oil?
Oh, gee, I love jersey, Joe. But man.
No, that wasn't jersey. You must have been Eddie then. No, no,
that would be some of you might think that's a good guess. I
love Eddie.
Okay, doesn't really matter.
Yeah. Yeah, people's public is freaked out. I mean, the amount
how much it affects.
And then that like hurricane season has zero. You said
something really good on divorce. Horowitz unplugged.
Where and it's funny to hear Horowitz. He makes me laugh
because he'd be like, well, you know, hurricane season is coming
and you went like, it's not like football season. It's not like
on day one. All of a sudden, the football game starts. And then
Horowitz immediately turns. He's like your pussy. He's like,
Yeah, you're right. Yeah, well, yes, of course. It's not like
laughing. Listen to that vid. Again. It's pretty much is
genius.
But anyway, yeah, no, that is the point is that we get
hurricane season yet starts, we're gonna see a hurricane in
the next 10 years. For all we know, are we gonna see 1000 of
them? I mean, it doesn't mean anything is meaningless. And
so what you're saying is that no, the the oceans will not be
ruined by this oil.
Know that you can't do the math to make them ruined. I mean,
someone's got to do that, you know, do some calculations here.
I mean, it's gonna be a mess in that area. And if a hurricane
does come through, you know, nobody knows what's going to
happen and may actually, you know, just distribute the thick
droplets of crap all over this, you know, everywhere from all of
Louisiana throughout the Mississippi, Alabama, for all we
know, little one dropper to like, be droppings. Who knows?
It could make a worse mess. It could make me clean it up. I
mean, nobody has a clue.
So I did hear a very crazy story about how this all went down. A
total nutjob conspiracy and accepted linked, we can put on
no agenda tv.com Because it's a YouTube video. Here's the story
how it went down that BP which in this story claims is actually
owned by shell. And I find I'm not quite sure how that works.
And I didn't do any of the research doesn't sound right. It
doesn't sound right to me either. Which is why my hairs
went like okay, but you know, Queen Beatrix of the of the
Netherlands, she she's a very wealthy woman. And she's, of
course, a Bilderberger and a global, elitist and just don't
like her. And so what the story is that the translation was
they're drilling so deep, they were drilling down into the
vein, that actually is a part of the oil in Bolivia. And that
that is a Halliburton Well, in Bolivia, and that Halliburton
got all pissed off that they were basically tapping out their
oil at that depth that then they sent Blackwater over to go blow
up the trans ocean. I thought, I thought so too. I'm like, Well,
you know, you don't know him. And if he had like, 30,000 feet,
you know, who knows? You could be drilling into Australian oil
for all I know. Wow. But I do know that the where they were
the vein, I think I mentioned this before is like on some long
term, longitudinal, it would be longitude and latitude. No
parallel that the pyramids are on and there's all kinds of
well, please Rafic stuff, but I thought that was kind of
interesting that this is actually the oil cabal fighting
it out amongst themselves.
You never know. So that guy who owns trans ocean, and there's a
clip of them on the blog, dancing with a bunch of Hindi,
you know, Bollywood actresses on the stage, I guess his board
meeting or is she shareholders meeting or something?
Oh really? Steven Newman.
Yeah. Do you see it there?
That looks pretty good actually.
Gorgeous, but this guy's an idiot. Okay, hold on a sec. What
is the CEO do this okay, because he's gonna endear himself to
somebody so he can go out there and look like a fool.
While I'm waiting for it to play. Transmission president and
CEO Steven Newman performs a Bollywood dance at the company's
Indian Division achieve TOP SAFETY wanting targets Oh,
totally.
All right. All right. The girls are Hi. Holy moly. This is like
this would be like Steve Ballmer doing this.
Why do white guys don't mind has a track record for doing stupid.
Why did
white guys do this?
No. I mean, I think it'd be I mean, it makes you look foolish.
And what's the point is making yourself look foolish and daring
to anybody? No, oh, what a character? No, he's
so cool. It's just one of the probably I was Russian friends
in the audience. A
I'll take number two, the girl on the left. Which one do you
end Vladimir? I get the one on the other side.
Meanwhile, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, Saturday called
for a Global Fund to Fight ecological catastrophes. And
that's what we want more global stuff, man. He said the Global
Fund was needed to ensure and reinsure against the risk of
such disasters. As in some cases, the richest companies and
even the big countries would not have sufficient funds to fight
their consequences. This is like this just pile jump and now a
and by the way, this issue will be raised at the G 20. Summit in
Canada later this month, where they're spending what a billion
dollars in security.
That what a waste of the taxpayers money. Yeah, it's Hey,
you guys, you know, if you went to Iceland, to vestment Ireland,
for example, and had your meeting there, you wouldn't have
a lot of protesters.
I think you got to be careful, man, he's Icelanders are pretty
pissed off still so
well. You'd have some Iceland protesters, but you know, they'd
rather drink at the bar on Friday night. I disagree. I
think the i Okay. Well, let's take it some other place.
There's places you can go in the world. That you won't have to
have this sort of security.
Yeah. Like Catalonia. You can go to seek guests in Spain. Oh, I'm
sorry. The place is already booked by the Bilderbergs.
Oh, they don't stay there for that long thing. Oh, they've got
The Bilderbergers have some outrageous amount of security
monies being spent to it's ridiculous. Yeah, this is this
is these guys maybe developed some secret meeting or
something. And we didn't have to advertise the thing. What I
understood.
Bill Gates is attending this year, but he
was the Bilderberger. Yeah. But why?
Why is it? It's a drinking club. John. He likes to drink. Why?
Because he's the chief eugenicist. It's his idea is to
kill everybody. Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is no good.
So we get into the educational but he went coming up, but he
went to Yeah, right along with your book. So he went to a
things get done. He flew. And he said, I'm going to a medical
conference and there was no medical conference. He said,
Well, no, I'm actually here for the Bilderberg meeting. You'd
like faked effect that was going to meet it because no one wants
to show up. People are the elites are now afraid because
people are standing around and yelling at them and taking video
and and they don't want to.
That's what they should do have the thing in Maryland. You can't
take video you can't stand around.
Yeah, well, you know, why do you think that making these cameras
illegal? Oh, there's a cop next to him. Well, you can videotape
him now that would that would be illegal, because it's
cops beating the crap out of that guy. Now he's kicking him
out. You can't No, no video of that. No, no, no, no, no, no,
no.
So the only thing and I do I do just want to touch on Bilderberg
for a minute because this is the first time that I can remember
that we're really seeing some real reporting more in getting
the nation East press. I mean, it's not like you're seeing this
on the nightly news. I mean, they could just say, hey, you
know, the Bilderberg meeting is going on. And all these
luminaries showed up, you know, that would be a fair report, you
know, then I have to say anything. They don't even do
that. Because you know, the first rule of Bilderberg is you
don't talk about Bilderberg. But the thing that galls me is that
you have these top guys from like, Time Warner, NBC, you
know, lots of media companies and they go there but there's no
reporting you know, it's lame. That's like signing a
nondisclosure agreement? Yeah, we'll come to your meeting,
we'll talk about whatever. But when it but we promise not to
report on it. I mean, that's bogus. That's just bogus.
I think it's unconscionable for a journalist to sign a
nondisclosure under any circumstances.
Well, so I'm sure that this is what I mean, the non disclosure
here is like, Listen, you will not talk about it or else. You
catch my drift?
Well, that would be I would sign that. Yeah. Yeah.
All right. How about your C span clip? How do you like my
microphone, by the way?
I don't know. But you went that your volume dropped to like
nothing. Oh, really.
I want to thank the producers of this programme, because I
totally purchased this microphone with your funds. And
I chose purchase pantyhose to go with it next
year, you know, the guy that I used to pop filters that are
made out of a mesh that that that has an angle to it. I've
tried to figure out how this stuff works. I think the
pantyhose was pretty good. But he had mesh ones are better
because I think more sound comes through it doesn't muffle it.
And it but it what it does is it takes the angle of the puffing.
Where are you popping your pee on it? It deflects it it pushes
it pushes it down. And that's where they have to actually be
about four inches away from the mic. Yeah, well, I have the
like, because I had it up to close and it was popping up PISA
has just been popping the pieces because it wasn't far enough
back to push this the air down
right. Now I have the just the old school that has a swan neck
on it. And I just can't find it. It's somewhere in one of my
boxes to one. You don't have to see
it what was the point of playing that?
That's your cue for your C span clip.
Oh, okay. Well, I got the guy his name is what's it say on
there? Zack was Zack will Zack and Zack, I just spelled it
wrong? Well, Zach is the Department of Agriculture guy.
And besides the fact that he keeps he keeps using the word
opportunity. Listen
to him, just use the guy from Monsanto.
Well, he's the guy from Iowa. And I think he may have been
really looking at my boy, while you're playing this clip, he has
got the, the essentially this is the beginning of an interview
with him on C span. And but I find it interesting because when
he kind of introduced himself off of a very lame question, he
listed all the talking points that we can expect over the next
year or two, which include taxing the farmer to death, but
not calling it that calling it an opportunity. Because we're
gonna have to cap and trade energy taxes, all these other
things, we're gonna have bigger farms. And then he twist his
words around on the way what a big farm is and how we should
get to know our producers. And it's just a crazy, twisted,
opportunity written bunch of talking points that just died. I
just don't see any hope with this administration or this
cloud,
where you're leading this effort and why Sure, the summit was an
opportunity for us to first and foremost, talk about the
important role that rural America plays for all of us. It
is the supply of inexpensive, affordable quality food. It's
the supply of water that we drink and rely on. It helps to
make us energy independent. And at the same time, it's a
substantial percentage of our military comes from these small
towns. So it's important that there'll be a vibrant economy in
rural America to support families. Sadly, for the last
several decades, we've seen a decline in rural America and
ageing population, persistent poverty, fairly significant
distinction between per capita income. And so the Obama
administration has decided to put a new framework in place to
sort of revitalise the rural economy. And it's based on a
couple of fundamental principles. One is that
production agriculture is important to the country and
it's important to rural America. So we have to continue to expand
markets, both domestically and foreign. That's why we've our
Know Your Farmer Know Your Food effort is trying to link people
with local production and local consumers.
Does he work for Whole Foods?
Well, the one thing he says when he caught talks about production
agriculture, he's talking about the big farm. Yeah, he's
talking about big factories, yeah,
factory farms. And then he says that he slips over right to the
next sentence. He says, then we're going to, we want to
that's why we're pushing. First is production agriculture. And
then he says, We're that's what we're pushing Know Your Farmer
know your producer, which makes no sense. It's almost a non
sequitur. He's just throwing these things out. He talks about
water. He talks about families. He talks about that military. I
mean, he's throwing every buzzword he can says opportunity
a few more times, as you'll see. And it's just like, it's this
whole administration just a bunch of blowhards that we they
have two agendas. One is to screw us with tech Woods cap and
trade. And the other one is to just you know, Oh, tax tax tax
are no your farmer Know Your Food effort is trying to link
people with local production and local consumers. We recognise
that there's a 21st century infrastructure that needs to be
expanded to rural America. That's broadband technology.
It's important that we expand the bio
broadband technology. That's important, John, we need
broadband technology or
renewable energy industry. It's necessary for us to do a better
job of working with conservation to make sure that those outdoor
recreational opportunities are enhanced. And finally, this
whole notion of ecosystem markets, carbon markets, water
markets, are opportunities to put new capital into rural
America all of which designed to revitalise the economy and
really give a sense of opportunity where where we've
been struggling for several years.
Tom Vilsack has a glowing reputation as being a shill for
agribusiness, biotech giants like oil. Yes. Sustainable Ag
advocated across the country. We're spreading the word of
Vilsack history as he was attempting to appeal to voters
in his predicate presidential bid. Apparently he is a big fan
of genetically engineered pharmaceutical crops especially
all there's a whole bunch of links here I should drop that in
Yeah, this is the shill this is the this is the Monsanto shill.
And he What is it? What it tells me what it means outdoor
recreational opportunity. What does that mean?
It's that little patch of grant graduate
it makes your recreational opportunities are enhanced. You
put a toilet in there and what does that mean? I think
he gets it
I think he deserves that one.
Well So meanwhile he what he should be addressing because
they brought in two two reporters who are the new Euro
style they can't seem to ask anything that's actually
interesting. Now we've got superweeds threat to mega
agricultural farmers are crossed the south find themselves in an
agricultural arms race with pesticide resistant superweeds.
Observers like Anna pay are pointing out that as farmers and
consumers are paying the price of agribusiness power to silence
those pointing out the mere basic fact fact of evolutionary
genetics that plants evolve resistance. The advent of
Monsanto's Roundup Ready seeds genetically engineered blah
blah, blah. We know all that. Anyways, apparently some weeds
are like getting through and the next thing you know they're
breeding and you can't kill them and there's no and we're also
finding other farmers complaining about these genes
getting into all the different plants. And it's just it's a
nightmare. These guys this is a nightmare. Yeah. What can I say?
Your support
Yeah, no, I don't want no
big hit to hit the real No, actually that's mentioned some
donors. Okay, since we're taking a break and we'll talk I got a
real news thing that would
be fun kind of interesting. Yeah, we need to get out of the
bummed out mode for a moment here.
Yeah, you know, we're depressing people Yeah. So some people that
apparently aren't depressed somebody mentioned a few people
that donate and contributed became producers and everything
else in between helped us out on the show we need your help. This
is a user supported show a listener supported we do the
show because you pay us donate contribute help us in vault with
volunteer work and the rest of it to do the show
it when we're not like the the national treasure PBS or NPR
which which take money from big corporations,
right and then gouge the listener, that woman
who we always laugh about, who talks about advertising, call it
whatever you want it. She was at the de conference? Yeah. And so
they only had one little clip, so I'm hoping they release her
whole interview. She says they have five revenue streams, five,
and like, how does that work? What are they? Well, they
would have government, right West guy instead they would they
would have straight up advertisers like Ford, right,
which he calls and around nations. Well, no,
that's underwriting.
She calls that revenue stream. Oh,
she calls it all underwriting. Remember she said call it
underwriting or whatever you want advertising sponsorship
sheets. That's one revenue stream for her.
I think maybe she needs to make her I don't know. I have no
idea. We have to find the whole speech.
Yes. It wasn't that she was being questioned. Yeah, they put
it like what do they
even put her on for? Feel good thing. Oh, it was about feel
good about our digital conference and bring in some
public broadcast. Yeah, I
think I think it was that we do need to they're now doing
partnerships with local local newspapers or some some who we
like that. Just to control it, I presume?
Did she throw a Carbonite ad right in the middle? No speech,
by the way.
Yeah. to back it up.
One of the things we've done here at PBS we've had trouble
backing up versus looking at the back of you use the code you
know, whatever. Okay, so we have a bunch of Knighthood layaway
guys that came in this week again of course Jarl friend
Travis when Chris Abraham and Tristan Lennon and Mike
Westerfield, and then donors include Casey boatmen who gave
us $50 Dean Carson from South Australia, Australia. 55. And he
said, he hoped this doesn't get me a job. It's kind of a twisted
logic. But but apparently a good luck for him is not working. As
in not working? Gertz automation. Oh, Chad Gertz,
actually Chad Gertz from Vancouver, Washington.
Hold on a second. Let's I know what to do here. I'm prepared
for this one. Stay with me.
That's your cue. This is Victoria. Gertz is 15th.
Birthday on June 7. With a comment whenever we go on a road
trip. Victoria always insists we listen to no agenda or else she
will not go yes, he is a winner. Yes, Maria Gericht Happy
birthday. Oh, that's so cool. She has nothing but success
written all over her. That's right.
She will go on to great things.
And we have I think another birthday. I don't know if it's
in this list. But there anyway, let's finish off. We've got
David habit dank in Placerville, which is a cool little town. Who
I just There we go. Hey, John and Adam. I'm donating in order
to out Scott sands stood as a douchebag. Let me be clear,
though, I demand that any karma resulting from this will go
towards finding Scott a job.
And he also a woman and a fuller head of hair.
Well, the hair thing we don't have much control over.
We can get you laid though. If you get a credit if you get to
produce it an associate producer credit that does seem to work
you can put on your business card say hey, how you doing,
buddy?
Definitely. Yeah. And let's see. Where was I? Anyway, so that's
55 two nickels on a dime. Also Raul Torres. Indianapolis,
Indiana. two nickels on the diamond June 6 is his 38th
birthday.
When is that on? June? What? Six today? Oh my god. How old is he?
He's 38. Big ones. Well,
happy birthday, my friend from John Adams all your friends at
the no agenda show.
So he's got an interesting little thing that we have not
documented. By the way he wants to deduce himself. Can you
please do that for him? Please use ben de duced he's pissed at
the US Commonwealth of Puerto Rico for making all birth
certificates invalid if they're issued prior to July 1 2010. In
order to combat identity theft, this is a money making scam at
$5 a pop to get new ones by merely filling out a form and
mailing a photocopy of your driver's licence. That sounds
like a complete and total scam. Yeah, it is. Because everybody
has a good number of people that you know not everybody will get
one they're just I mean if all I do is keep the old one telling
the screw themselves, really. But anyway, that's all we that's
actually all we got.
Is that long while you're filming the officer.
We do have one more birthday I believe. Really? Well. There's
something here let me get it
pretty soon we're gonna start requesting birth certificates
and proof.
The birthday is Ivan is sending a note last show to Jayco Jayco
is Its 35th birthday. He's in Croatia. First time donor for
one and only reason it's my buddy Jake was 35th birthday.
I'd like to ask you to call him out as a douchebag since he
hasn't yet donated and also congratulate him on his
birthday. The big softy will appreciate it. Cheers from
Croatia. Also write it for buck magazine. The best in the world.
Which magazine bug? Oh, is that what you write for to? Yeah. Oh,
cool. Hey, Ziff Davis got sold.
Yeah. Ziff Davis is a great but it's not a magazine anymore. So
I can I can say that bug is the best in the world. Yeah. Jeff
Davis all online. Yeah, got sold to a. I haven't found out the
details yet. But it was just so good
Indian guy and Indian guy at an investment firm. He's buying up
all kinds of media properties.
Yeah, they're trying to create an online media, megalith.
Oh, boy. Oh, you know, they only only just time before they buy
us, John.
Whereas the problem is our business model is not
appropriate for most

Sierra. And yeah, sorry. So I got
a couple clips I've got was this the real news segment of the
show. I think I just want to do a real news thing. I just
thought it was amusing. And now back to real. So this was
actually I took this I took this from the Jimmy Kimmel show, they
had patched this together is a series it's one show of I think
it's the bachelor or the bachelorette one of the two of
them just to make finding usage, which seems to be getting very
popular. Of the word amazing. In just one simple you know, one
show, I mean, apparently these people have a vocabulary of a
seven year old. Okay.
I'm hoping I am standing. Some amazing place. I was pretty
amazing. I want amazing husband. Absolutely amazing. Amazing.
Amazing. Amazing. I think that's amazing. This is just amazing.
It's amazing. That's amazing. Harris. It's amazing. That's
amazing. This night has been amazing.
You're amazing. Yeah, I hear that a lot. You know, I
hear you're in LA. That's where this comes from. Amazing.
Oh, it's just amazing. How was amazing become the warrior.
Because it's simple and easy to say. But it's amazing. Say it
with me now, John. Just amazing. So GX two can do a whole mix on
us now is just amazing. I'm so amazing. It's amazing. What is
the definition of the word amazing. It's amazing. It's like
a word that you can use for anything like he does. He does
amazing, worthless. Where does it come from?
Well, it comes from the word amaze, obviously and it means
that something singularly outrageously wild and
to offence with great wonder, Astonish, to to be willed or or
perplex to correct to cause great wonder or astonishment.
Amaze,
amaze. So they, so it seems to me as though these people are
just astonished at the drop of a hat.
The Brits say that a lot too, by the way. Astonishing. This is
astonishing. That amazing, just amazing. There's absolutely
amazing. I mean, I think amazing should be like when you see like
a UFO spiral in over eastern Australia. Oh, wait, that
actually happened. Yes. That's amazing. You know, finding an
amazing husband first of all, forget about it. Certainly not
you lady. Yeah, did you did you see this video of the UFO spiral
over eastern Australia Gitmo nation, man, they're on the map
now. They they had a spiral Yeah, they had a spiral.
Yeah. Is anybody out there documented that any of our
listeners ever seen one of these spirals? I would like to hear
from them. Send me an email. Okay. Because these these could
be all Photoshop for all I know.
Yeah, could be
but sounds like if you don't want to get to nuclear you want
to talk a little more.
deconstruction is starting Well, this is this is kind of related.
You know, this story that is like four or five different
stories in Australia about this spiral. A lot of people saw it
and there's YouTube video. Because of it and so I think
that the I mean Dubai is it's a spiral. And the headline and
mysterious ball of light seen across eastern Australia early
yesterday may be linked to the launch of private spacecraft. So
we had our first private use of the Kennedy Space Centre in
Florida Falcon nine rocket, which I don't know anything
about whose was it? What was it carrying? I haven't done any
research on us, honestly. But, but right after that. In
Queensland, New South Wales, people started reporting a UFO
spiralling estimated 20,000 kilometres per hour, I don't
know who came up with that estimate, going into west to
east direction. were indeed consistent with a spent rocket
grazing the Earth's upper atmosphere. But it looks a lot
like you know, a spiral.
Yeah, well, you know that these are new, it seems to me. So
there's something screwy going on. And maybe this has to do
with the kind of motors they're using on these rockets? I don't
know. All I know is that over the years, where I located,
essentially everyone's Well, the Vandenberg Air Force Base, which
is a missile launching place, they have some big ones. They
want some of the big boys. Yeah, secret shit, too. And slaughter
secret stuff. It goes gets the shoot over, essentially over the
Bay Area. And yeah, I've actually seen it at least twice.
I'd like to get a listing of if somebody and how come
you didn't get video, John, how come you didn't grab your
camera? Exactly. That's why people don't do it, because it's
amazing.
So anyway, you get to watch it and you see it. It's like he's
talking about a contrail. This is a smoke trail, that's like
unbelievably big. It goes over and you can watch the second
stage go off. That's the cool part. Because it goes up and it
goes up and it's just getting further far away. And then you
see a little being a little flash. And then the second stage
takes off with a different kind of a plume. And the other thing,
I don't know what happens to it, but it doesn't spiral by any
means. It just drops down and crushes some poor guy in
Guerneville.
So we have a 15 year old listener from India.
We have more than we also have a 15 year old it was a birthday.
Yes, correct. But this 15 year old is Rajesh Rajdeep. And he
says, By the way, I can't donate. Here's what he says. I
love the show want to donate soon, but I just don't have any
money plus, I'm Indian.
You guys want to perpetuate yourself out. So he says, I
think it's a bad idea.
He says he sent a couple pictures and I asked him to send
me the link to the second picture. He actually was his dad
who got him listening to the show. And he says my dad hasn't
donated yet either. Because guess what, he's also Indian.
And he says the Guatemala sinkhole he says it looks
exactly like these giant holes in Mars. And he and he sent some
pictures, which I guess was NASA material. And I have to say it
looks exactly this. He's like, whatever they're shooting at
Mars. They're shooting at Guatemala. I'm like, this kid
will go far. This is this is a good little kid.
Huh? Well, that's in coastal weird. So he got a letter from a
guy. Unless you want to talk more about the spiral.
No, I'm done with a spiral
like this. I felt I felt real good about this letter because
he's you know, we're we're actually teaching some people to
look more carefully. Everybody I talked to that listens to our
show. You know, whether they like it or not, they always say,
well, at least we're you know, we're taking a more sceptical
look at things instead of just, you know, we're not a whole like
fish anymore, right? So this guy came in with a little thing. I
wanted to go over it because I have some comments for him.
Here's a headline is this Jeff Wheeler? Here's a headline and
subhead I saw in Reuters. And after learning from your show,
how to identify one sided reporting I saw right away how
biassed and unfair this was. And he he, I think rightly so. He
feels that this has been slanted in the way it's told where the
story is told. And we've talked about this before, toward a
Republican or toward a democratic slant. Here's the
story. Reuters with an eye on November elections is a very
short it's only a sentence. With an eye on November elections.
Republicans pounced on a weaker than expected jobs report on
Friday to cast doubt on President Obama's economic
leadership and question if his policies would spur enough
growth. His interpretation he said he noticed right away says
pounced like a kitten. It's a weak word. Yeah. And this one I
thought was really good. This was outstanding, this little
thing to cast doubt. The word to with to cast out implies that it
was their intention. And they didn't to actually do it. Oh,
very good. I thought that was his best best hit. Words matter.
And this by when we say words matter, this is what we're
talking about. spur enough growth, quote The word enough
here is doublespeak. Have you ever had enough growth at saying
Republicans are so hard to please? So he alternatively
wrote it as with an eye on November's election, Republicans
noted in a weaker than expected jobs report on Friday that casts
doubt on President Obama's economic leadership and
questioned if his policies would spur growth, which is a pretty
neutral way of doing it, but I would slant it toward the
Republican side just for to be balanced. And it would get out
which here's what I would do with the eye on November
elections Republican instead of noted said, right now it's more
statement like rather than just something that's minor note, it
always implies they noticed it whenever you I noted it said a
weaker than expected jobs report on Friday. See a Friday.
That was Friday, June 4.
No, no, I'm fine. I'm glad I'm trying to he had to work that
cast doubt that that would be eliminated. And I would go with
a more active word in the past tense, cast it down. She would
go like, expect jobs report on Friday, that dead Friday. Not
that but let me start over. Yeah, please. Republicans said
in a weaker than expected jobs report on Friday. That casts
doubt on President Barack Obama's economic leadership and
questioned should be and questioned his policies. If the
question is if his policy would spur any growth. Now, that would
be the real slanted way of putting it. In other words,
instead of if his policy was for growth, if his policy would spur
any growth. And then with question, you might want to take
a look at using this usage instead of Obama's economic
leadership. And question if his policies to and now questioned
if his policies would, and that changes it from past tense to
what happened the other day to something more. It would now now
as we just become kind of a story, because you have a past
and it's moving toward the present. So you're creating kind
of a movement, you're creating a drama, and it gets brings the
readers in a little better. And it's but this is completely
slanted the way I wrote it, of course.
So what I can't reconcile is all the financial reporting says
weaker than expected jobs report. Yet the President is out
at Kay Neal international trucks in Hyattsville, Maryland,
saying, hey, it's working. We added 431,000 jobs applause.
This month in a row, we've seen jobs gains applause, jobs, jobs,
jobs, jobs. You know, it's just like, the the front page of
whitehouse.gov is like, what's the headline? It's, it's a great
headline. On the road to recovery, during the first month
of last year, our economy lost an average seven or 50,000 jobs
each month now new job numbers show that even excluding
temporary census jobs in the first five months of this year,
the economy has created nearly half a million new jobs. But
everyone, Wall Street says exactly the opposite.
Somebody's wrong,
is not the Ministry of Truth, John. Well, you know,
if you lose 500,000 jobs and to create 400,000 jobs with a net
loss of 100,000, you can still say you've created 400,000 jobs.
Right. Anyway, sliding down the hill.
And these of course, are census jobs right and first, which we
know Yeah, and the census jobs Yeah, but they were firing
people and hiring them three times over. We began Yeah, total
scam. So the one thing that was disturbing this past week, is I
got several emails. A couple of tweets directed at you and I
that we are racist fascist assholes because of mainly your
analysis of the flotilla incident.
What flotilla incident, this
is what it's called the flotilla incident, the Israeli attack on
the Turkish ship.
And they're racist anything.
Well, of course, this is this is kind of the whole point is like,
there's this huge surge of people online and they're
attacking. I mean, people are attacking each other quite
viciously. It's all words, of course. You know, fuck the Jews,
fuck the Palestinians. Fuck Hamas. Fuck Israel, fuck turkey.
It's like we're all fighting it. It's like I think this is what
the global elite want us to be doing. It's crazy. It's really,
really crazy what's going on people are getting so Oh,
outrage.
I don't Yeah, they're vulcanizing, the thought
process, you might want to play the intellectual discourse clip
from Emmet Terrell, the, the kind of the right wing writer.
One of the themes I didn't want to hit too hard in the book,
because it would just go on and on and on, is a theme of
intellectual decline in this country. Certainly in the
culture, not amongst engineers, not amongst doctors, but amongst
journalists and people in the humanities has been an enormous
intellectual decline. And I don't think I don't think we
want, I've given up on the culture smug, liberal media, I
mean, that you and I have been around long enough to know that
it was a day when the Washington Post in New York Times were
interested in some disagreement took place in the 1970s. But by
the 1980s, they found out that didn't have to enter into
conversation with us. And you'll note at this table here, there's
not a liberal, they wouldn't come we couldn't invite them to
our games. I know you are. That's what you're you're a true
neoconservative. But my point is, the intellectual the
intellectual debate in this country has become a monologue
on one side or the other. And on their side, there's no way we're
ever going to engage them. And I gave up a long time ago, the
point I make at the end of the book, is we've established our
own culture culture. Yeah, yeah, no.
Further he did go all the way with it. The fact is, is more
than just the two groups now you have you have the liberals and
the conservatives that are gonna talk to each other, that that
you're kind of like the Democrats and the Republicans
generally. And then because there's no buddy there's no
peacemakers in Congress or in the culture, they just attack
each other. And then you have these you know, the which is a
lot of this, by the way might stem from the Israeli
Palestinian impasse which when I was in college, you know,
decades ago this was going on it hasn't changed a bit. And it was
the the you would see at the University of California out
there on Sproul Plaza there would be these in his red
commonly, there'd be always be at least daily, one Israeli and
one Palestinian standing across from each other, or Airlink.
yelling at each other with great get a little crowd usually and
they would be talking over each other's heads. They one did,
neither one would be listening to the other dish be yelling.
And that seems to have that this this particularly impasse isn't
is just seems to be the theme for the just, you know,
Millennium, I guess I don't know, it's just the damnedest
thing, but the fact that people would complain about anything we
do, which is to get to the bottom of certain things,
especially when is when we make the assumption that everything
is driven by PR companies. And we had to kind of deconstruct
that just to find out who those PR companies aren't, what else
they're doing, and how these hidden messages are placed
within stories. The fact that we'd be criticised for not doing
much more than trying to figure out what's going on on that.
That boat is ridiculous, these people should go find something,
somebody else to pester,
it's interesting, because the same goes I we got a beautiful
email, I don't think you were copied on it from a listener in
Greece. xenograft Boss is his codename. And he he heard my
story about taxi Eric in the Netherlands, who was all pissed
off about you know about the Greeks and they got to spend,
you know, gotta send the Greeks 5 billion euros from the
Netherlands alone. And yeah, and this is also just an What is it
intellectual discourse? Are you interested in hearing from him a
little bit about the real situation and what what the real
problem is in Greece?
Let's hear what he has to say.
So he says, Okay, first educational system in this
country is appalling. Every aspect of critical thinking has
been removed from the curriculum starting let me
see what I'm I put my USA checklist down while you're
exactly see if we fit the bill. Okay, every aspect of critical
thinking has been removed from the curriculum starting from
kindergarten going through to university. Second, Greeks have
been indoctrinated to accepting the idea and practice of
socialism since the end of the military dictatorship in the
early 70s. Greeks are taught very subtly that any other
system will lead to return the fascist dictators. I don't think
we have that here yet. Third, up until this is interesting. Up
until the mid 90s, more than 60% of the workforce were government
employees. We're on our way to that. Yeah. 60% of the
workforce, more than 80% of businesses were nationalised
monopolies sound familiar, John. Even private companies were in
some and in some cases still are very carefully regulated. For
example, the ratio of bakeries to right Residents in the town
is fixed. Even if you want to open a bakery in your hometown,
you can't unless someone else closes their bakery first. Wow,
I didn't know that.
That's interesting. Yeah, that's good for competition. Yeah.
Fourth salary suck. A high school math teacher four years
of university under his belt has a starting salary, he's probably
a teacher has a starting salary of 860 euros about well, when he
wrote it, $1,000 a month, little less now, a newly appointed
police officer makes the same. The government even influences
the salaries in the private sector by requiring Social
Security premiums that are about one half of the salary amount.
Fifth, unemployment is unreal. 35% of people over the age of 30
are unemployed. And more than 20% of those have never been
legally employed. Six and the last and salient point, taxation
here is out of control. The lowest income bracket is 26% for
a family of four with 20,000 euros in income, which is that's
not a lot of money. But how do they calculate income? Listen to
this, this could be things to come, John, we pay income tax
note not only on our income, but the on the objective value of
all our property. And I mean, the objective value is
determined by the government by property is not just land, it's
anything you own. If you have two cars, the government says
that's equal to 5000 euros a year of income and they tax you
on it. If you have a house of 100 square metres, which is a
very small house that is equal to some arbitrary amount of
income, which you're taxed on. We also pay 20% value added tax
on every purchase luxury tax on cigarettes, gas, gasoline,
automobiles, and 1000 other things other Europeans take for
granted even electricity usage is taxed to support state run
television places a mess
that doesn't sound very good
No. So I think and he's basically saying Hey taxi Eric
man you know we got some problems here that you're not
aware of. But yeah, it's it's abhorrent
now you got it in Yes, I
know. And I think definitely hungry now is hungry is yeah
this was snuck up on hungries in the news like yeah, like it's
almost I think has nothing to see here thing could be trying
to distract us from something else
I don't know but it's like a hungry lie they lied on their
application oh that's not true. They lied about their money her
like whoa Okay. Meanwhile back at home
like way way you're mentioning the European Union I got one
little item that I should mention because this is really
always makes me shake my head every time I run into this is
happening. We've talked about this before because I we thought
at least initially that the European Union was going to be
the big hold out against GM food but European Union is to
radically overhauled the approval system for genetically
modified crops from next month, opening the way to large scale
GM cultivation in Europe.
They'd already approved it though. We already have that
didn't we? A couple months ago apparently there's some
some news of this is for they're just gonna basically open the
door to Monsanto, Dow and Dow Chemical and Soudan Syngenta.
Time to buy some stock
would Syngenta that sounds like that sounds ominous it sounds
like a good one kill all the earth I'm in.
So the share price Yeah. So there's also coming out the
World Health Organisation so we're kind of talking global
global stuff here. We talked about how the demon drink as
they call it in their own report. The demon drink alcohol
which of course now we know we can't be sure if it really is a
demon drink. Because who knows? You know we could have a
pandemic of demon drink pretty soon. But it's spreading to the
United States John Michael Boling from Santa Barbara
California. Hey, dudes, I started listening to your show a
couple months ago love it have not donated donated yet as I am
a starving college student. Don't worry, we'll send some
tasty GM snacks your way. I will be needing some no agenda karma
soon. I was listening on Wednesday was very intrigued
with the topics concerning alcohol consumption. And by the
way, I've got a guy on the inside who does the monitoring
at the interlock company. And he's gonna send me some details.
How cool is that?
Good. That's very cool.
I'm a graduate student attending UCSB. It'd be the University of
California Santa Barbara, if you know anything about us. UCSB
also stands for you can study buzzed. Is this true, John is
yeah, we tell us when they had the riots in the 60s at
Berkeley. They did didn't show up. Know the rights of the 60s
in Berkeley were riots and they everyone was there but in Santa
Barbara that riots they had their they, they, I remember
there was a scene where there was somebody through near those
cops coming every which way and there was all these cans of tear
gas I was on the roof of a bank. And I
wrote acting it or drilling a hole
onto the onto the bank roof and I couldn't understand why they
weren't throwing it through the bank window in Santa Barbara
then only threw it through the Bank of America window but they
set the bank on fire. And the Bank of America burned to the
ground and it became one of the top background images for
personal checking accounts in this arbour area for about 10
years.
Cool. So we take great pride in our drinking is his point. But
this County Board of Supervisors has been trying to curtail all
drinking here in the little college town next to campus is
LaVista. They have now gone way too far and are taking away our
right to privacy and covenant to quiet enjoyment with this new
social host ordinance, which is linked in the show notes no
agenda show.com Basically, it gives the police the right to
enter any private residence without provocation that has
five or more people gathered for a social event. Now he says I
don't know if you know what's
gonna go bad, bad bad back at birth and read that again.
Basically, it gives the police the right to enter any private
residence without provocation that has five or more people
gathered for a social event. It's against the Constitution
Hold on. I don't know if you know what the housing situation
is like here, but the rent is so high. Most houses have six or
more tenants just to be able to pay the $600 per person per
month, about $3,600 per month for a three bedroom apartment
that was built somewhere in 1940. I think the no agenda
nation should be aware of this ordinance so they can help out
help put a stop to it and keep it spreading to other counties
protect your right to drink and get fucked up. He says in the
morning, Mike.
We're in the morning to him. Yeah, so
here it is. There's the news county passes alcohol edict.
Four to one vote. The social host ordinance is indeed is what
it's called.
Keep a couple of Dobermans in the place. The new measure would
impose fines beginning at $500 for a first offence and require
hosts to take a county approved counselling programme, no doubt
with something you gotta wear and have a monthly fee
subscription. The law also notes that hosts should check ID cards
and insist that minors leave from their parties. Here. Yeah,
here, here it is. The fact there's five people is
considered a party or a gathering. That's pretty nuts,
man.
That's unbelievable.
Let me just see if I have the I haven't looked through the whole
ordinance. But that's also linked. Let me see if it's
penalties enforcement. Why the why the ordinance is needed two
reasons. Here's the ordinance. Law enforcement has inadequate
enforcement authority to respond to underage drinking on private
property. And the damage underage drinking does to
developing brains. There you go.
Oh, there you go.
developing brains. We're not going to college to develop our
brains you fooled there to drink. In California. There's no
law that makes it illegal for a miner to consume alcoholic
beverages or to have alcoholic beverages in a place that is not
open to the public. Yeah, with good reason. Without a law
ordinance, underage drinking in private places is difficult for
law enforcement to
take their take you off the road from driving and drinking now
you can drink at home.
That's right. The proposed ordinance will fill the gap in
the law by prohibiting consumption of alcohol by minors
and both so there's all about the minors whose brains have to
grow. Oh, here's what you do, pose ordinance violations,
misdemeanour offence possible fines up to $1,000 Community
Services and at least 24 hours of at least 24 hours jail time
up to six months with cost recovery for law enforcement
response to rowdy parties. Excuse me, it just makes me want
to puke. Oh my god. Unbelievable. They have a whole
chart. Alcohol. Alcohol Use last 30 days in Imperial County
compared to national averages. Fifth grade 7% use alcohol in
the last 30 days. Seventh grade 16%. The AI as a whole is
unbelievable. The adolescent brain goes through dynamic
change during adolescence. Alcohol can seriously damaged
long.
about any age alcohol has damaging effect on the brain in
some way, shape or form if you drink too much of it,
frontal lobe development and the refinement of pathways and
connections continue until age 16. and a high rate of energy is
used as the brain matures until college kids damage from alcohol
at this time can be long term and irreversible. In addition to
short term, or moderate drinking impairs learning and memory far
more in youth than adults. adolescents need only drink half
as much to suffer the same net negative effects for sciences
here we go again, I don't have any anything fun to play at the
end of the show. Well, we're
not quite done yet.
There's plenty of other I know but again, I'm going to be
unless you come up with something interesting we're
going to have another depressing show.
It's you shouldn't be too too depressed although this is a
very interesting thing that is spreading I also got to a note
from one of our younger listeners and get my nation East
in the United Kingdom he said the end of Doctor Who there was
a link right there in the credits to BB
bbc.co.uk/headroom. So this is f after Doctor Who right and you
go to that website and it's about the demon drink alcohol do
you feel you need to cut down your drinking? Drugs smoking
improve your well being weird.
So Nelson Ferreira just sent me a nasty note. He's one of our
contributors. He says his wife was the sociate producer once
before. This is where you'll have the first associate
producer woman's what
you get. You got to be very,
very careful with saying it'd be really validation was picky.
I was very pleased to see that. You know, I told you that we're
gonna see more and more zombie stuff. And you said no, zombies
are over. No, the zombies has come and gone. I don't think so.
Ma'am.
Okay, what?
exercise class in St. Charles, Illinois. Zombie fit. Is this
exercise class? Right. Zombie fit.
Would you get this story
wired to prepare for Z day, which is zombie day. Students do
cardio lift weights and practice parkour manoeuvres? You worried
Parkour is? No, it's like jumping over city walls and
stuff because you got to be able to evade the zombies. So the
survival workout is as follows One climb, zombies aren't very
spry. So climbing over barriers is a key evasive manoeuvre.
Practice on a wall that's a little taller than you to
freefall. Jumping off a roof may provide temporary respite but
break a leg on landing and your dinner. cushion the impact by
extending your legs and touching down on the balls of your feet.
It's a whole zombie workout man. When everyone turns into a
zombie, and you and you need to evade them, it's just the
beginning. Your watch is just the beginning. More and more
zombie stuff. I guarantee it.
What was that movie? Actually Eric would probably know it.
That would that had there was a British movie those two comics
and they were in surrounded by zombies and didn't even realise
that for for a long time. They had just kind of killed millions
of them. It was it was a zombie comedy.
I saw the Woody Harrelson zombie movie, which I liked.
Now, this is something else this was a actually action note. Eric
is still there. Maybe not. Anyway. Check them out later. I
don't know this zombie thing seems it should be over. But it
doesn't. It's not apparently.
It's going to continue. I guarantee you. Nice to see. The
Guardian of all newspapers. Christian valamar Who is on the
train beat? He he should be a no agenda listener.
Shaun of the Dead is the name of the movie.
The dead No, he or she that No. No.
Hilarious. Shaun of the Dead is Shawn sh un people on the no
agenda book club. Please. Put that on the movies that you must
see. Okay.
So, Christian valamar of The Guardian, newspaper, communist
newspaper. He actually calls it out. He says the train policy
goes off the rails. He says What the hell is going on? He says
the coalition's pursuit of a high speed line is baffling. So
he hasn't quite figured it out yet that this is obviously some
money making money making scheme everybody's in with Siemens or
whatever. But he can't figure it out. It says Why the hell are we
trying to we people can't even afford the slow train, let alone
that we're gonna build a high speed rail, which is true. It's
on.
Trains are not cheap. No,
well, but even in Gitmo, it's impossible. It costs you a month
salary just to take the train. And it took the toilets out.
Yeah, can have toilets. So 74 Democrat crowds signed a joint
letter to the FCC supporting internet throttling by Verizon
AT and T and Comcast. What does that mean exactly? Bottling
let's carry or slow or block internet traffic. This is a
clear attack on net neutrality. Obviously, House Speaker Nancy
Pelosi just endorsed net neutrality, but the money party
is busy burying votes. Here's a top 10 list of the beginning was
a top 10 list. This is the agonist.com where.org throttling
is where you you know you got some gay this guy's using a lot
of bandwidth, don't you think? Yeah. Let's cut him back. This
is what happens when you know sometimes our
Skype Yeah, like with us. I'm sure it happens all the time.
You guys have
been on a what's going on with these two jerks? Yeah. Well,
they've been on for almost two hours. You're kidding. What are
they doing? Two hours. What are they doing? Pull it back? Pull
it back?
I will say that Memorial Day weekend. They did send someone
out from time to time warner cable. And unsolicited. No, not
unsolicited. No way. No. last Thursday. It was abused or died
now but then on on. Yeah. No, it wasn't a piece of it wasn't
total crap. But during up during the upload of the show, my whole
connection dropped and it was gone. It was gone. And Sunday
was the next time they could get someone out.
Let's see you didn't have any connection on Saturday.
No, man. It was horrible. I was tethered on my iPhone. It was
sorry. That's sucks. I totally blows. And it's still weird. But
then the guy comes out in the end, he measures everything. And
I was because high frequency stuff. And I was like getting
read my signal here and not you know, it should be maybe a
little yellow, but certainly green. And I guess the wires
outside or something was was corroded or whatever. And so
where else? Yeah, squirrels. And so he replaced a bunch of stuff.
And I must say, now I do get a bursts of 25 megabit download.
But still, it's wonky. It still craps out from time to time. And
I was pretty good today. It's reasonable. But I think they're
doing that through they've been doing that throttling all along.
I think there's nothing new, I think that just do it whenever
they need to. And whenever they feel like it, yeah, probably
when when we're doing a show, you're right, like, hey, there's
that connection, they're pretty constant stream all that back.
So the, I have noticed one thing, if I keep a on the other
computer, if I keep blocking an IRC open, they do much less
dicking around with this with Skype, it's possible that you
can send a just like a shadow signal or a, you know, kind of a
smoke screen signal. And when they're all mixed up together,
the deep packet sniffing probably gets much more
difficult to do
well, I always have IRC open and I always have a ping open a
continuous ping. So I can kind of just like a command line. So
I can just kind of see the health of the network. And it
also that's like, you know, I know when when my networks down
because I get timeouts in that one window. But now, we're
screwed. I mean, I keep telling everybody, please, you got to
make that mesh network, we got to do something because the day
is going to be upon us and I'll be like, Okay, oops, wish we had
done it. We should have done it earlier. Right? Just like we
just I'm going to tell you something now, too. We've talked
about the strange symbolisms at Denver airport. Particularly
that crazy ass horse the one with the with the red eyes the
light up at night. Yeah. So they've just added a new
business. A huge a new business. You know what a new business is?
Yeah, it's like it's Well, besides being the character and
one of the Stargate shows Yes, well, NuBus is the Egyptian
goddess Egyptian guy that with a with a head of a of a duck or
something?
No, not really. It is like a dog kind of thing. So they have the
30 foot tall blue Mustang, which of course has been the talk of
the town ever since it was put in there. Now they're installing
a seven tonne 26 foot tall concrete sculpture of a new bus.
Why? It's on exhibit? June 29. through January 9 2011. It
actually says here, The exhibit runs June 29. through January
11 2011. The new bus will be standing guard during that time
guard over what? At the Egyptian God of death. I mean, are they
just messing with us?
Gyptian god of dead? standing guard. Do I want the Egyptian
guard of god of death at the airport? Yes. Right before the
trains bad and you're trained planes bad trades, good. Trades
good. Planes ban.
The Egyptian God of death.
The airport Yeah, notice they didn't criminally insane that
run this airport. They didn't put it a Grand Central
Station. You'll note. No one has to go at Denver airport. Thing
is huge. It's 26 foot tall sculpture. And who comes up with
this crap?
Yeah, it's a copy of the original, I guess. seven tonnes
right next to the main terminal to promote the upcoming King Tut
exhibit.
A I was I was forced to promote the king. Yeah.
Museum Art Museum. By the way, they had the King Tut museum it
just it sucked. There was really sucks and the line is a mile
long of you and now you have to buy tickets. It's it's
it was like have a facsimile of the of the of the actual exhibit
in London.
It's an interesting little kind of foreboding. I'm gonna read it
from the same article on the on the on this new bus character.
Yeah. The new bus is not far from the sculpture of the blue
horse called Mustang by Louise Jimenez Louie Jimenez. The
artist was killed in 2006 when a large piece of the sculpture
fell on him in his studio.
Yeah, no. I think we talked about that. I'm laughing but I'm
not really that happy. It's just
some weird about this whole thing going on in Denver. Yeah,
to Denver people. So drink you active anyway.
Do you remember if you ever heard of Operation blackjack?
No. Because it would go along perfectly with all of these
women. When is this thing on exhibit and six? Is this one?
No. This one is this thing going to exhibit this a NuBus
I think is there now.
So Operation blackjack was supposed to happen June 22 2009.
As predicted, was predicted. It was there was like a big
conspiracy meme running around. It was in a movie as well,
somewhere. Anyway, Operation blackjack is when nuclear bombs
are supposed to explode in we get the list for you. London,
Los Angeles, Mexico City. And I think New York probably not
Denver, because that's where they all hang out. So now this
conspiracy is back. That 2010 June 22 is when Operation
blackjack goes into effect and the bombs will be popping off
here it is London New York. Portland, Los Angeles, Toronto
and Mexico City.
And this is on June 2010 this coming week?
22nd No 14 days yeah, this month.
Okay, well, very you I then I would make the list of those
cities and stay out of all of them. Yeah.
You think San Francisco will be safe?
Yeah, that's not on the list. It's got to be safe
Angeles is on the list. Don't you think there'll be some
fallout?
From what Yeah, it'd be tonnes of Fallout everyone in the air
will be killed.
They have a great picture on this page of I guess a new bus
the statue this is crazy ever sent a picture of a new bus and
the Statue of Liberty in the background where the hell was
this room so they're tying this in somehow to this a new bus is
the you know the is the symbol that operation blackjack is now
going to take place well, nice knowing another
date that will come and go like the giant flying saucer that was
supposed to land a couple of years ago and Brazil
wasn't going to land it was just going to make itself it was just
going to appear hover was going to hover and make itself known.
A girl can hope Kanchi
So okay, so we have to assume to witness sort of the sort of
blackjack thing reappeared. So that means a movie has to be
coming out. Within the next five or six months or next maybe
it'll be announced. To get shortly that has pretty much
this kind of thing, right?
Yeah. So we'll keep our eye on it. So can we do the show at a
normal time on Thursday? Okay,
I'll tell you what, let's do it in the normal time. But it won't
be till next Thursday.
No, but we'll do it in the morning. Yeah, absolutely. In
the morning.
Okay. But hello to Australia. Bar.

do that.
