Boom his eyeball blows out. Adam curry, John C. Devorah.
It's Thursday, September 5 2019. This is your award winning give
our nation media assassination episode 1170.
This is no agenda.
Still fighting dark mode and broadcasting live from
opportunity's own 33 in the frontier of Austin, Texas
Capitol drone star staying in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam
curry
and from Northern Silicon Valley. I'm John C. Dvorak.
The last show you were so long it took us three three retakes
to do it. Now. It's done. One on One and done.
It got a laugh. Yeah, for
me. Yes, that's true. Oh, man, what's been going on? Blues?
Yeah. Yeah. What's been going on? I'll tell you what I did
yesterday. And then you tell me where you'd like to start
because I watched a lot of that climate change townhall watch
very little of it. Every time I turned it, I watched it. Why am
I watching this? It was a positive way. Can Elizabeth
Warren gesticulate, more,
gesticulate, what is gesticulating,
throwing her arms all over the place when she talks? The whole
globe and that she makes a huge circle with her arm, and she's
thrown her arms left and right and left and right. I mean, it's
like if you poke somebody's eye out if they were standing
nearer.
Yeah, it's it's the whole thing. From a television production
standpoint, what a losing piece of crap. Why would anybody want
to watch that?
Well, I watched a little bit of Elizabeth Warren, I watch very
little of Kumala gig, giggler. Yeah. And I will say this that.
Scott Adams had a interesting take on Kamala Harris. He says
that she has to, and I just think he's maybe right about
this. She has the personality of a submissive.
Interesting, because I have a clip where that kind of kind of
comes out. And just looking at this, obviously the audience was
stacked. It wasn't really a town hall. It was a CNN studio, where
they had you know, the was bogus changing images of hurricane
Dorian on on the big screen, because of course, you know, we
know that this is all due to climate change. And really, I
just I, because it was it was 10 hours and everybody got a turn
and it's easy to grab the gaffes and the dumbness but it just
took two two examples of how set up in scripted this was. Because
by
the way, I disagree with you right away. It's not easy to
pull out the gaps out of a 10 hour document.
I just needle dropped and found stuff. It was that easy. But
when I'm when I'm saying what I was interested in is how it was
set up. And you know, if you and I were to produce this, I think
someone had some humour to be like, okay, Elizabeth Warren.
Now let's get some questions for her. Oh, I know. Let's get an
American Indian to ask her a question.
That'd be great. Yeah, let's
do that shall
Chantel Coverdale. She's from a narrow island of land in
Louisiana, known as Ile de John Charles. It's rapidly
disappearing because of rising sea levels and
just leave it we'll deconstruct it in a minute coastal
erosion. Chantel, thank you very much for being with us. What's
your question, Chantel?
Thank you. So as he said, I'm from the island of Jean Charles,
Biloxi, tomahto Choctaw tribe. We've been dubbed as meaningless
by
it's really, this is great. The Cheung Chau chak, chak turret
prod. I didn't even hear what she said. But she's doing
something Chuck. She's right out of central casting. She's
perfect to Ask An American Indian which is the preferred
way to categorise them and American Indian to ask a
question of the fake American Indian it just it's a great
idea. CNN first American climate refugees were the first American
climate refugees.
We had a front row seats, climate change for the past 20
years. I was had to move my home from my island home when I was
little due to mould induced asthma and from replete family
repeat flooding. So my question to you is, if President what
changes would you make to support communities like mine,
who face community wide displacement and cultural
Eurasia?
Oh man, I love that. She said to say cultural erasure or because
it should be climate erasure,
as I said, cultural racial, erase Sure How
about cultural climate erasure, I don't just looking for a term.
Now listen to the submissive Liz go into her spiel, and she knew
this was coming. So
let me start by saying how very sorry I am. be hard to watch
your homelands disappear. And to know that you've done everything
you can do, but that the force is bigger than you have taken
over. And so I see it this way, when when I think about climate.
Now, this was interesting. She was so ready for this. She took
that and she when she says, Now, let me tell you about this. We
didn't think about climate, she turned to the camera and goes
into a pre rehearsed spiel. It was it was like, and
so I see it this way. When when I think about climate, it is the
existential threat. It is the one that threatens all life on
this planet. Every day, we're losing species. It's changing,
the oceans are getting more acidic. Yeah. So when I first
started thinking about how to describe what I will fight for
the President, I decided I wasn't going to do one climate
plan.
No, no, no, not one. No, no, no, not just one plan.
I decided I was gonna try to look at climate in every part of
the plans I'm working on. So that means I've got a lot of
places where this comes in. Because that's how I see it.
It's not going to be a one and done. That's all confined. It's
that it hits in different places. So for example, on
Yeah, no, I can actually the ends funny, but I can't listen
to it. Here's the problem. And I'll does John Charles, has been
a quote unquote, sinking for decades, because of the levees
in Louisiana. The levees stopped the silt. And this is a map, you
can find all kinds of articles here from the from the New
Orleans lens. The people of Ile de John Charles aren't the
country's first climate refugees, no. And then there's
all this oil and gas drilling. It's the erosion. It's not
because the sea level is rising.
Actually, we have one of our producers who sent me a long
document describing all this fabulous. And he goes on and
says this island was even known until 1935, even though it
apparently existed before, but they finally started mapping it.
And it turns out the thing hasn't been even eroding that
much the problem. One road going in and out does very poorly
support and they don't want to keep this road going. And then
there's a bunch of oil and gas that they think they can drill
there. Yeah. So they're rousting the people.
And this woman hasn't lived there for most of her life. But
oh, cultural. What was it? The racial thing
is bold troll crap. Now the island is bullcrap. To them
climate. Immigrants is bullcrap. And, and Elizabeth Warren is
bullcrap.
Let's move on to Mayor Pete. So Mayor Pete, if we were in the
meeting, or ended off, by the way, Oh, no. Um, if you and I
were in the meeting, what do we want to do to have a little fun
with Mayor Pete?
Yeah, like gay guy asked him a question. Ya
know, have a gay guy asked him a question about children. This is
even funnier. Yeah. And let's make sure the gay guy is into
solar power
bill Jordan, Troy, New York. He's the founder and CEO of
Jordan energy. They do solar panel installation, as well as
co founder and board president of the Let's share the sun
Foundation, which instals solar panels in poor parts of the
world. Bill, thank you for being a part of this. What's your
question?
How do you and chasten think about leaving the world a better
place, particularly around the climate change issues discussed
here today, to the next generation, and any children you
may choose to raise? Well,
we're hoping to have kids one day, and I want to know that our
kids can thrive. When I got into this campaign, I talked a lot
about the idea of generational justice looked at me funny
because I don't think it's something that's been taught
generations
to me write that one down. Generational justice,
goes right to the top of the list shows good walked about
much. But each of us has an obligation to do our part not
only to be just to those around us, but to those who will come
in the future. And I think, you know, when we're on the campaign
trail now, and more and more the questions I get from kids are
about climate. They're almost always either about gun
violence, or about climate. I remember
why Remember, children have been abused, had been abused by
abusing other children to make them all afraid and just choose
the crap out of them. And Mayor Pete seems to be good with this.
These are personal questions. They're asking about whether
they're going to be able to raise kids again, it's why I
think this isn't just saving the planet. This is saving the
future for specific people who are alive right now. I also
frankly, think of it a little more selfishly, because when
we're talking about whether we hit this target of 2050,
decarbonizing our economy, you know, Lord willing, I plan to be
here. I would not wait for some stats be in my 60s. By the time
we know whether we have succeeded and can look Back in
2020, and be proud of what we did to begin getting on the
right track, or realise that we're the ones who blew it.
These are the years, you know, we talked about 2030 as a
deadline. But in many ways, 2020 is the deadline. Because if
we're not underway, by the time the new president takes office,
we really have lost our last shot. That's why there is so
much riding on this election. And
he's saying, we have to be underway by 2020. Otherwise,
forget about it. So vote for me, because we have to get it done
by this election. So vote for me
talking about 2030 is a deadline. But in many ways, 2020
is the deadline. Because if we're not underway, by the time
the new president takes office, we really have lost our last
shot. That's why there is so much riding on this last Wait,
wait. And for me and everybody I know for the children that we
hope to have for the people who will be alive at the turn of the
century, when if we don't change what we're doing, we can lose
half the world's oxygen because of what's going on in the ocean.
We can lose half the world's oxygen. Ladies and gentlemen,
please put your oxygen mask on if they should drop from the
ceiling of your house because we're losing the world's oxygen.
It remember this is for the children. That's
why there is so much riding on this election. And for me and
everybody I know for the children that we hope to have
for the people who will be alive at the turn of the century, when
if we don't change what we're doing, we can lose half the
world's oxygen because of what's going on in the oceans. That is
unthinkable. And we owe it to we just cannot look in the eyes of
a child right now with a straight face and say we're
doing right by them. We owe it to them to get this done before
it's too late. Oh, yes.
Oh, yes, we can't look in the eyes of our children. We can't
do that. Let me we just need to go through briefly. When that
there's a script, there's a script to abusing children and
getting this meme this message going and in this case is being
abused and children are being abused for climate change. A
group of producers of the no agenda show put a couple of
things together to help me explain this exactly how this
has not only works, but it's extremely effective. So first of
all, if you want to put together some campaign with kids, you've
got to start by showing the kids blame playing grownups have them
interact with adults, making the adults obviously sound stupid
and unaware of what's going on. This is an example
climate change, climate change. Threat. How many years do we
it's Excuse me, do
you have a moment to talk about climate
change? Okay, so that's how you'd start off a campaign. Then
you have the kids, you got to have them pitch the issue to the
viewer and the audience address them in a little bit of a
patronising way, showing them that ignorant stupid, or you're
not doing enough point out the deadline like 12 years or 2020
as mayor Pete said, and then you have to have some authority like
scientists and you know, say that they say it's has to
happen, we pulled kids across
Canada and ask them to rank election issues in order of
priority. 74% rights, climate change is the issue most
important to them. Climate scientists
are now saying we only have 12 years left half if we want to
avoid catastrophic damage. That's why we're lobbying the
federal government to lower the voting age from 18 to eight
So then you've got it you got to wrap it up. You've got to have a
catchy hook so like let the kids vote with these clips or from
something we played on the last show let the kids vote put it to
music kind of like a We Are the World vibe if you can get the
kids to sing it and acquire a melody that sticks in your head
like cheap chewing gum the
huge
you liked this song if we were good at this song has been in my
head since the last show I can't these kids are not here to lift
the kids.
Right so there you have it the let the kids Vote campaign done
expertly. The kids with all the elements you need. Yeah, so
let's see this in real time with the no agenda show. Well
I guess we're sorry. Excuse me, guys. Do you have a moment to
talk about exploiting and big deal, ma'am. I think we're too
late for that one visit piece on your cheek that looks like
Rachel Maddow. When we polled 33 kids across Gitmo nation in the
morning and asked them to rank issues that affect them in order
of priority, they said stuff like douchebags camping on
fortnight, friends, cheating and Pokemon and parents hassling
them about screen time. But when we gave them a list, they all
chose exploding and make doulas as their number one concern
because it sounds funny. So I'm just say that we only have 12
years of schooling as children before we irreversibly turn into
adults. That's why we've been exploited now for Chief loss and
to get donations for the no agenda show. Felix why are we
doing this again? My dad bribed me and gave you a daddy beer. I
guess that's how the rest of the world works. Here comes the
train that gets stuck in everybody's head net Game Stop

being exploited.
Special thanks to Sir Felix Wilson and Jenny Pham. And
Felix's friend Mick Shuang Jenny's dad, sir Ned Jeffrey,
who wrote and recorded the song co wrote the lyrics and Squire,
Arlo, Jeffery, there at the end, but that's how it works. And
you're all now going to donate to the show.
Let's hope so.
Now, you have more on the climate thing. I have some clips
I have
one other thing. There was an interstitial that ran of a CNN
weatherman. By the way, the weatherman and they call them
the weatherman, not even meteorologists just weatherman.
weatherman weatherman. He got to ask questions. Everybody's like,
okay. And here's CNN weatherman, Chad Meyers little interstitial,
saying I used to be a climate sceptic. But then it changed.
I was once a climate change sceptic. I get it years ago, I
didn't think the world's climate would actually change due to
global warming gases. I was convinced that at some point,
the Earth would reach a greenhouse gas equilibrium,
where the ocean and plant life would absorb the excess co2 that
humans produced. This would acidify the ocean, heal the
coral reefs and destroy the ocean food chain, but leave the
climate intact. Then in 2013, co2 concentrations in the
atmosphere past 400 parts per million. That's when I knew the
oceans and the plants couldn't keep up the demand. We were
placing on them, there would be no equilibrium, and the climate
would change first. So I went out to learn as much as I could
about these climate changing guests, the science, the facts,
and the myths. When you sort the facts from the fiction, you may
see things as I do now.
So this fool is using the 400 parts per million as the tipping
point which we've
passed.
Well, 360 was the tipping point,
right? It wasn't it wasn't 350 I think it was climate change.
350. So it was 360. Now is 353 sixty.org. Three fifty.org.
But okay, sorry. Okay, one of the two 360. We're way
past that. Temperatures haven't gone up in response to that much
350. I checked it. So I there's Something's fishy about this
whole thing, because this was going on. A bunch of
you think there's something fishy going on?
Do I think there's something fishy, Captain Obvious? Yes.
Really. Okay. So I noticed that there was a bunch of stuff going
on all over the world. They're all these climate things. But
there was a beef going on in Australia. And I don't know when
this was, but it seemed to be recent. And it's with Alan Jones
and all the old fart debts of one of the presenters on ABC,
Australian Broadcasting Company. And he got into a beef because
they did a climate thing the night before his show, and they
condemned him and all the rest. It's really worth following
because this guy is pretty funny. And this is Alan Jones
versus the professor's this the set up part one,
I was accused of downplaying the human impact on climate change.
Of course, no attempt was made to contact me so that I could
offer a defence that's the ABC, but one of the guests was
Professor David Karolyi, referred to as an Australian
atmospheric scientist, based at the CSIRO and a question asked
Professor Karoly the following. I saw the radio commentator Alan
Jones on TV recently. And he said that point oh 4% of the
world's atmosphere is co2. The question went on, and 3% of that
is created by human beings around the world. And of that
1.3% is created by Australians. The question is, is that
correct? And if so, is human activity really making a
difference? A pretty good question. Professor Karolyi
replied, not everything Jones says is factually correct. No
wonder he stumbled in seeking to repudiate me. He went on to say
that while it is correct, that point oh 4% of the world's
atmosphere is carbon dioxide, quote, Jones's statistics around
humans. I think it means human beings causing climate change.
And the role Australia's specifically play is completely
false.
The I think I've seen this this bit. It was very interesting.
I'm glad you pulled clips from it.
Yeah, I pulled the whole thing apart. So this was because the
night before there was a bunch of climate people on it. This is
like the PBS NewsHour, the you know, they're obliged to toe the
line. As you remember. We had that clip with Al Gore and Judy,
and Judy's made some allusion to somebody doubting these numbers,
stats and Harrison Ford. Gord jumped all over her for even
suggesting such a thing and then she she relented. Anyway, so
this goes on and they do you heard the numbers which Oh,
point point oh, 4% is 400 parts per million. So that part,
right. So let's listen to Alan Jones. Let the s off. First. The
professor part two,
he said put out four of a percent of the world's carbon
dioxide was correct. The other numbers that the question
referred to were 3%. Of that is what human beings created around
the world. And 1.3% of that 3% is created by Australians
Karolyi said though, all his other numbers, they must have
been those last two numbers are wrong. Well, on the 25th of May
2011, I interviewed Professor Karolyi on radio. Let me just
play you an extract very brief of that interview. It was very
courteous, and very friendly. Just listen to this. Fisher
Crowley. Good morning. Good morning. Alan. How are you? I'm
very well thank you. Can I just begin firstly with a little bit
of maths so that we can agree on a couple of things. Would you
say it's an arguable that the level of carbon dioxide in the
air is less than point oh, four of a percent if I'm at that
point, because nitrogen we know is about 78 Oxygen about 21. And
then there's argon and things like that. But co2 in the air
about point O four of a percent. Okay. Do you agree that the UN
IPCC Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change says that of the
Earth's annual production of carbon dioxide this point oh,
four of a percent that's in the air nature produces 97% and
human beings 3%
of the annual fluxes that go in and the annual fluxes that come
out?
Yes, that's it. So I just want to get this clear on maths
because you're the scientist. I'm not point oh, four of a
percent of the air is carbon dioxide. And all that point oh,
four of a percent 97 percents produced by nature and human
beings. 3% now of that 3% all Australian human activity
transport industry, agriculture, mining power generation, that
stuff. We produce 1.3 to 1.5%. Yeah, Alan, you're absolutely
right.
Okay, absolutely. Right.
Yeah, it's the same guy the night before this, that he
wasn't right. So so this is and by the way, people should pay
attention to those numbers, because we'd kind of go we kind
of lost track of the fact that that point oh, 4% of the carbon
dioxide. 97% of it is produced by nature. We got nothing to do
it. And damn nature's just the tip of a tip. So anyway, so this
isn't some judge bitching and moaning and making some
generalities. This is part three, which says free. I love
to try. Alan, you're
absolutely right. That is that. Let's just put that aside. I
stand by what I've said for years. We are talking about a
global warming hoax. demonising Kavanagh dioxide demonising coal
fired power, which has led us into this economic suicide mess.
Business can't afford the energy bill. People at home can't
afford the electricity bill. Why? Well, we export our coal so
that others can have cheap electricity, but we're not
prepared to use it so that we can have cheap electricity
because carbon dioxide is destroying the planet. That's
Karolyi and the mob on q&a would have you believe
you know, which brings us to the The point if if people are coal
producers like Australia, and they're exporting the coal, they
should just stop producing coal 100% of it just stop if it's
that bad, but Okay, now, Jones did continue, because this was
really part of a show on something else, which was he
brought another guy in to talk about sea levels, who is one of
the world's experts on sea level rises, which kind of plays into
your clip ah, about the little island there in the middle of
the swamp. But, and this is gonna be where I ended with
this. But this is I just would throw this out there because I'm
looking at is the big mud flats out there, which is not a silt
by any means. As mud or sheltered becomes mud if it gets
wet. So let's just listen to this, then I'm done with this
segment.
Well, here in this country in Australia, children are being
taught at schools that Bondi Beach could finish up at
Bathurst. You've been tracking sea levels at various parts of
the globe, have you not for 50 years, sea levels rising world
wide, which the climate change apologists keep telling us is
happening?
No, certainly not. Certainly not. In the Northern Hemisphere.
And especially in the European we can prove and test that
absolute absolute sea level is not rising more than about one
millimetre per year. If we go to the equatorial region, and now
we come closer to Australia. It's not even rising at all.
Amazing, and it has been stable for the last 50 to 70 years. And
that is a fact. That guide okay.
Sorry, I heard a walkie talkie somewhere. Yeah, well, I will
take us out on a on an up note. On the left.
Heaven forbid we present these facts.
Yes, we have hurricane Dorian, which made some very interesting
moves. But of course devastated most of the Bahamas. It's pretty
bad. And we really don't have any I'm just have we just have
that helicopter footage, which really never does it justice.
You know, you think wow, that's a lot but you have to get down
to the ground to see how bad it really is. But this thing was
supposed to come careening into Miami then it was gonna be
further north and then it looked like it was going to be the
power the nuclear power plant St. Lucie. It was headed
straight for it. And then it bops up. Here's Emory college
professor Tiffany Younique. Says interesting Tiffany spelled T I
P hanie. Wow, that's a cool I mean, my sister's name is
Tiffany but she has the traditional ti FF a and y. This
is a new one for me.
I think the best one is t i FFANI. With a heart.
That's a perfect one.
The tip Adele
suggested to Tiffany here she is talking about the hurricane.
Hurricane Dorian,
I'm Professor youneeq. You have said that the Caribbean is
ground zero for the climate crisis. And I want to say in the
nonstop coverage in the networks and of course it should be
nonstop coverage of what's happening non stop this
hurricane.
There is almost no mention of climate change. Yes. Well,
I don't know what she was watching.
Good morning, Amy Goodman, Juan, thank you for having me again.
The truth is that the storms that are hitting the Caribbean
with this intense magnitude are historic, unprecedented. And
these storms are manmade storms.
I love this. I love this concept. Manmade storms. But
yeah, well this falls into the the conspiracy theory that's a
manmade storm. So go out, wipe out Jeffrey Epstein's Island.
Yeah,
that was one of my favourites. This guy on YouTube. Mike who
does all the weather charts is like 3 million followers insane.
This guy's been doing it for years. And I've watched him many
times, but I usually give up because most of the time, it's
like, hold on. That's the wrong chart. Hold on. Oh, why didn't
it work refreshed? You know, it just takes forever for him to
get the charts working. But he had this radar image, which was
you know, a recorded image of about 3540 seconds I put it in
the show notes. And you see Dorian swirling and he has a
whole bunch of comments about the winds at the top and
different altitudes, which I won't get into. But then you can
see clear as day shooting across the southern part of the Florida
peninsula. A black band that shoots right into the The
bottoms the bottom part of Dorian and kind of starts to
whip it. Almost like if you had a tarp and you you you wound a
rope around it and pulled it. So this was kind of whipping it as
if it was to, to steer it in some direction. I don't know
what it is he doesn't know what it is. But you can really it's
very clear, and I don't I don't think he's a faker. It's very
clear that something was pushing this thing. So in a way, I don't
know if it was manmade. It could be I mean, we've been under the
weather modification and whether it's a weapon is nothing new.
And then to see this thing, Bob straight towards St. Lucie
nuclear power plant was interesting. And that was the
path Trump thought it was going to take and even drew a little,
little extra on his map. But then it just careens in goes up
the coast. It was interesting. But yeah, so when she says
manmade, I believe or only not in the context, you say in it.
When I was growing up in the Caribbean, we would get really
dangerous storms once a decade. And now we're beginning to see
them regularly. The Virgin Islands was hit by two Category
Five storms, only two years ago. Wild President Trump indeed was
our president, Category Five storms, Irma and Maria in 2017.
And to see now that the coverage is saying things like Dorian is
going to hit the United States. Later today is incredibly
insulting and ongoing an insult to the people of the United
States Virgin Islands, because Dorian hit the United States
Virgin Islands on August 28, when it hits a Thomas and St.
John. It's as Dr. Campbell said, it is quite ironic and saddening
that the people who are most vulnerable to these manmade
storms are the ones who in all cases are not the contributing
factors to the carbon emissions that are causing these storms.
These storms are being caused in huge part because of capital, US
North American capital capital. The Virgin Islands in the
Bahamas are the ones that are most vulnerable to these things.
Orange Man bad. Just capital, its capital man may know the big
term now amongst the climate denier climate change deniers.
Who of course, also denied the Holocaust.
You know, I'm still befuddled by that clip. This was Amy Goodman.
Yeah. on Democracy Now, if I'm not mistaken, right? Yes.
Correct. And she has this nutcase. come on and talk about
this. Yeah. And she doesn't say anything like what we weren't
you get disinformation, what makes you think so
why would she do this? It's on brand. It's onMessage. Mess it
up. It's just beyond
me. While you watch a listen to this crap is the problem. Yes.
I'm sorry. Anyway, go on. Well,
I was just going to say the the term now amongst the climate
change deniers is thermodynamic equilibrium. And there's might
never use that term, I think I would be in that category.
Well, you're behind the times, my friend. There's been several
scientific papers showing that the Earth at this very moment is
in complete thermodynamic equilibrium, meaning we have the
right temperature for what we need. Don't ask me how they
arrive at this.
This come from science, a turkey
science site. It's a real thing. It's got a wiki page and
everything you know, it's real. It must be real. Yeah, well,
I'll read it to thermodynamic equilibrium is an axiomatic
concept concept of thermodynamics. Sounds legit.
concept. It's, it's a keyword.
It's an internal state of a single thermodynamic system or
relation between several thermodynamic systems connected
by more or less permeable or impermeable walls. There you go,
whatever. So but that's, I'm just telling you what the term
is.
Yeah, well,
you don't have to go looking at it yourself.
It sounds like a bogus term, if
ever, but when I just finished it when I saw those that 10
hours. I mean, they were like the high priests of the Church
of climate. You know, it's the green religion. And it's true
and people are really there. I don't think they're acting.
They're really all in
that world. I think they all don't think they're acting
either. There are does happen at some levels where some people do
act, but I don't think any of these people these weeks sister
candidates for the Democratic Party nomination, I think all of
them are all in with the possible exception of Biden
Biden blew his eyeball out
you know that's it. And I think that was real that is that he
got a bloodshot eye and it's a symptom of all kinds of other
stuff and medication can cause it
well I was somebody suggested my suggestion to him because get
his energy up a little bit to gain some some speed balls
couple of you know shots of this and that and he got his blood
pressure blue on an eyeball. Oh, yeah, that would be it would be
guys all jacked up on something Benny's is jacked up and talking
to like a madman. He's talking about climate change and going
on and on boom as eyeball blows out. This can happen.
Yeah, it's not very healthy, though. And it's not being
addressed. I
think so it's getting so much blood pressure that blows out
your eyeball. mould is President have a spring on it.
Some believable, it's not healthy at all
poured down again. They could have just drugged him to get the
eyeball to blow up to make it make you know, I think he's,
this guy's not going to be the nominee. What it is.
What did you think of his performance? Overall?
I didn't watch it. Oh, was the eyeball blow up?
Yeah, he was not good. He wasn't just not good. He's not good.
He doesn't want to nomination. He's just doing it as kind of
like a favour to his one son who died.
But that's horrible. That's a horrible way to go out. You
know, it could have been you know, the man who stood by
Barack Obama side now he's the guy with the blown out eyeball.
Sad, sad. I'm sad for Joe don't like this at all.
He's not. He's doing like he doesn't even he's not even
camped. He's unkempt. Yeah, he's all these fake hair. And now
he's bald, you know, if you had any thing going on, he'd be
wearing a wig. And he would have started wearing it years ago
when he had his plugs.
Now the cool thing is that he has the same sickness that Trump
has is, you know, saying things wrong, getting them wrong,
repeating things that were wrong saying something opposite of
what he said yesterday. It's kind of a thing I didn't maybe
that's just age. I don't think so.
I think it's a style mixed with age bias. So you have to
remember
to just be full of shit. That's my style.
Yes, that's it. So bite. And if you recall, did run for
president. I think it was a couple of times the way back
before Barack and right wing back in the 80s. Right. And he
was the same foolish shit guy back then. Yeah. Before he was
old.
He's kind of Yeah, you're right. He's kind of back where he was
now hasn't really changed that much.
Yeah, he was a plagiarist. And he also said he got some degrees
he never got he was actually humiliated out of one of the
races for lying about his college education. Oh, I
remember that. Yeah. And cancel what was changed. He should be
cancelled for that cancelling. Now the only letting him do his
own thing. I think I think everyone knows he's not going to
make it. And we all know who the nominee is going to be in a
starting to go up here. I think it's starting to very slowly
move into the public consciousness. Hillary. Yeah,
since day one. And I'm not I haven't changed my my stick on
this. I stuck with it. I have my list of the nominees and who's
running and who's going to win. I keep Hillary on there, whether
she's on on the podium or not.
You know, timing is everything. I think, Joe, if Joe pulls out
she swoops in. We already removed Gillibrand, which is
good. You can't have you can't have someone else coming from
New York. Yeah, she's the Hillary clone. So that would be
that's an obvious spot. So it does free up some some space.
But a big a biggie would have to go. And that when Joe would be I
think Elizabeth Warren the lot being put especially her there's
a lot being put on her by the media.
BTW, I think I've picked her up as the leader, because they
don't have cameras a loser, she can't pull it off. And she's not
going to and she's giggling giggles and giggles and she's
got a stupid especially as know what she's talking about about
anything. So she's done. And I mean, somebody may still think
she can win my mean, including Scott Adams, who's predicted her
some time ago and he said, Well, he's pretty gigantic who picked
it her picture for some time ago. Yeah, but she's guys got no
prayer. Warren is the new chosen one by media and put if Hillary
comes in Oh, goodbye. You just blow worn out Bibles. Yeah.
But Hillary is still not well, you know, there's pictures of
her out and about and you can see she's retaining water. Her
ankles are incredibly swollen now then I can't go she has
swollen ankles. Yeah, and happens when yet
happens. Yeah. Anyway,
sorry. Well, I was gonna follow up on the shootings we had in
tech. Just recently, and I do that for a number of reasons,
mainly on my birthday, my buddy in Holland called me live on his
morning radio show. And yeah, so we're, we're yucking it up. And
then he's like, Well, I gotta ask you the question everyone
wants to know, you know what's going on with all the guns and
killing in America? I'm like, Damn, it's my birthday. You want
me to answer this question? So it's really worldwide. And I
wanted to give a response to that, and then follow up with
what's going on here. After the mall. We had El Paso, we had
Odessa. So a lot of shooting going on here. First part in a
minute. And I've lived in many countries, and the only country
I've ever lived in where the citizens had a right and also
owned guns, and we have hundreds of millions of them in the
United States is the US and I've lived in the Netherlands. I've
lived in Belgium, I've lived in the UK. And I'm going to make it
very simple for people who are who are outside of the US. Our
country was founded on kicking the governments as with guns,
the Brits, is it not? Look, we want to go here, leave us alone.
They didn't leave us alone. So we fought them and we shot at
him and they shot back and we want so it's founded on the
concept of having guns is a good idea. If you if the government's
problem, we have the Constitution and in there, it
says very, very specifically that the people if they're tired
of this shit, then they can form a new government. Well, how do
you do that? Well, you can't do it without guns. Because the in
every country I've been in the the grasp that the closing in
the notices, the letters, the forms, they keep pushing you
down, and down and down. And in the United States, we have one
ultimate deal, which is we have guns. So if you really push us
too far, you politician will not be able to walk anywhere,
because we're everywhere. And that's the only reason we really
have the guns. I'm not going to bullcrap anyone about it. It's
to be ready to be against our own government. Does that come
with risks? Yes. Does that come with crap? Yeah, absolutely.
It's not the biggest pool of people dying, but it's really
the effed up it's no good. That's just if you if anyone's
had money they have against the Second Amendment. Fine. I'm
telling you the basics of what we're about. Would you agree,
John?
I would not disagree.
Okay. That's your standard bullcrap answer. I appreciate
it. Thank you, for the many who emailed. Although we already
know, I wanted to know if the AK 47 was sold in the United States
as a semi automatic. Yes, indeed. And it is called the AK
47. There's a lot of copycats, and we may not have mentioned
it, but we're very aware and people should be aware as well
that you can own machine gun a fully automatic weapon in the
United States, but most don't, because it's very expensive. You
need a class three permit, you have to get it through the
national tax stamp. Through the end of this the NFA National
Firearms Act, it costs $10,000 or more just to go through this
process. So it's friction. That's why we don't have them as
probably a good thing. Although, I don't know. I don't know what
difference it really makes. But it's not you
know, yes, you can you can hand you can if you're a criminal or
let's say you can create you can you can make you can also Jerry
Reagan, of course. But these are just facts. So you know, people
send me like reams of text and an email explaining that I'm
wrong. Even though we we know this. We've been through this
for 10 years. I mean, appreciate it. Yes, it's legal to have a an
automatic weapon. You have to go through a lot of hoops. Most
people don't do it, but there's plenty out there.
And we and we don't and people that says you're talking to the
overseas audience. There is a difference between an automatic
rifle rep weapon machine gun and an automatic pistol, which
everybody owns. An automatic pistol is not a machine gun.
It's just a pistol that Cox itself. Yeah.
The same as Sam Sam. Yeah, it's called an automatic but it's
semi automatic. So now we have this topic of background checks.
And let me see I have a clip here that I wanted to play. This
is yeah, this is Governor Abbott of Texas with some information
that I think has been underutilised by the by the M
five M. But it's it's good. Texas
Governor Greg Abbott said Monday that the suspected gunman who
killed at least seven people and injured 22 others in a shooting
over the weekend had failed a gun background check.
So he had failed a background check at a store, which is how
it's supposed to work. But he had, he had received a weapon
from a friend. And this is what they mean by comprehensive
background checks. But of course, if it's a private sale,
now, you the only way you can really enforce background checks
on private sales is to have a guaranteed registration of every
weapon. And having lists of people lists is not a very loved
idea. Certainly not list of people who have guns. So that's
where the problem is. And obviously, if this guy couldn't,
you know, there's all kinds of reports that he was shooting at
animals from the roof of his house with a gun that he knew,
yeah, whether he had or not, someone should have gone and
looked and looked in and said, and check to see if he ever
failed a background check and said none of this is done. So
it's a lot of lip service. And we certainly could do a lot
better. Sadly, the Washington Post reports today, and they
only quote sources, sources familiar with it. That Harpa the
health Advanced Research Project Agency is working with, of
course, the President, the White House, the complete
administration, in and I'm reading the the, the wording
now, in considering a proposal that would use Google Amazon and
Apple to collect data on users who exhibit characteristics of
mental illness that could lead to violent behaviour. In other
words, a form of social credit score. And, ah, if obviously, if
this is true, this is this is a huge problem. But the Washington
Post doesn't tell us who said this to him. And so that the
post is literally calling it a social credit score such as
China. I'm flabbergasted. I mean, surely this this cannot be
a true story. If this is
Dave could be making it up to you. I don't trust the
Washington Post anymore. That's the
problem I have is I don't trust any publication really. But USA
Today is writing about it. They quoted
somebody maybe use some names instead of just nonnamous
sources. Well, they're doing something like this. The
concept was advanced by the Suzanne Wright foundation and
first discussed by officials on domestic on the Domestic Policy
Council and senior White House staffers in June of 2017. So
this is may be very old, old. But the idea has gained momentum
in the wake of the latest mass shootings that killed 31 people
in one weekend in El Paso and Dayton, Ohio. The Susan Wright
foundation re approached the administration last week and
proposed that Harpa include a safe home of the stopping
aberrant fatal events by helping overcome mental extremes project
Oh, God, they came up with an acronym you Dix, safe home.
officials discussed the proposal at the White House last week
said to people familiar with the discussions, these people in
other spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the
sensitivity of the conversations, but you read
through this whole article, and they're talking about having
some kind of either an app or using data directly from the big
Silicon Valley companies to track you and see if your
behaviour is apparent. Or aberrant. I'm sorry. And if you
need to be looked into.
That would be half the people that use these things.
So I'm a little flabbergasted. I mean, I think maybe let's look
at a simple one. And then I'm gonna I'm not happy about saying
this. But if we just took one simple example, who's on
antidepressants? Here's the question. If someone is
depressed, should they have a gun? No. Okay. Problem solved.
There's your list.
Not go to the drug companies get a list or the pharmacies yet
list everyone on antidepressants and take the guns away. That's a
start. Yeah, that would do it. Well, that's well, let's check
in by the way. This is Redonda topic. Let's check in on China's
China's social credit credit score update.
Chi Yong Yang's company has developed a social credit app.
It gives China's youth a taste of the benefits one can have
with a good social credit rating.
Where is this Sargon of Akkad speaking?
Sounds like I'll say this. This is again, almost what you just
said. talked about which is this is an app that helps you get
this is the Google stuff. I mean, this is just a disgusting
story. And it is yes exactly who it is our cod
chi Yong Yang's company has developed a social credit app.
It gives China's youth a taste of the benefits one can have
with a good social credit rating. The Beijing startup
collaborated with the Communist Youth League of China to gather
personal data from over 70 million young people. The app is
called unic town and gives accuser a score based on six
criteria, personal information, volunteer work, social
connections, credit history, consumption, history and track
record of honouring contracts. The lowest score is 350, and the
highest is 800. Users with high scores above 650 can benefit by
getting discounts on online courses, or even be parachuted
directly into the second round of job interviews. But China
Youth credit management has more ambitious goals when it comes to
capitalising on social credit. It wants to build a system to
cover all Chinese citizens between the ages of 18 and 45.
An estimated 460 million people. Yeah, yay.
That's the future right there.
Well, we need to fight that maybe a quick Well, we didn't
fight it with credit scores. No, but we didn't know. And now
Credit Karma and other companies of the like, are owned by
Google's Yeah, we should know, we should know what's going on.
This is why you don't want to instal these apps. Why I was
watching TV last night with the keeper. And I said, you know,
John, and I predicted this at least 10 years ago, because
every car insurance company now has an app, you get extra
savings for good behaviour. So the app sits on your phone,
you're required to be a part of the discount programme to have
the app. The app tracks your what the apple even know if
you're holding onto your phone in the car with the use of the
accelerometer. It knows how fast you're going. If you break
suddenly it has all this data and oh, I'm sorry, your your be
exhibiting some unsafe behaviour. So your premiums are
going up and it's here. And there's just no one outraged
about it. What's Oh, this is great discount this guy out.
Good. Best Price. Best Price. Marshall McLuhan I've heard the
name throughout my life and never really knew who the guy
was. Candy Navion Did you ever follow anything that he says
I've
read, I've read everything he has ever written. I used him as
a basis for a lot of my college papers.
Holy crap, what's the best book that he's written that we should
read when it pertains or sanding media? Understanding media, so
someone sent me a link to a documentary about him. And so
this is from 1967. And just the three topics but all kind of
around the same idea. You know, when we talk about off the grid
OTG. Want to play that? Here is the Nadis. He's also the guy
that came up with the medium is the message was that his quote?
Yeah, that's in the book, Understanding media. Okay, so
that's definitely a but we have not discussed this book on the
show ever that I can recall, now thinks it should be on the no
agenda book list for shit. Here he is. Talking about now, this
is before the internet, but not really before satellite or
satellite was out there. And he saw new communications and
satellites and how this would affect news for satellite
system of broadcasting permits, for example, an immediate
participation in events anywhere in the world. Ending all news
reports. What we call a news report is a verbalised.
Substitute for participation in that event. With satellite
broadcasting, you just go to the place and participate directly
in the sufferings or the events of that area floods or whatnot.
of either this will tend to create a new kind of news. I
don't know. For example, at the present time, what we
automatically think of as news is just bad news. If it isn't
bad news, that is news. If it's good news, it's likely to be PR
or advertising. And it takes an awful lot of bad news to sell.
All that good news that we have to carry in our newspapers and
magazines.
So this, just think of what he's saying here in relation to what
we're seeing with news today. So this is 1967. I wish three is 52
years ago, this guy was saying this either deconstructing it
perfectly before it even happened. And now he's going to
give us insight into what we're witnessing today on social
media, which back in the day was called the Global Village, the
electronic global village. Does that go back to the 60s that
term?
Yeah, sure. All came from
you guys. Were smart back then. Here he is. And listen, yeah,
but they were just Yeah, they were they made us get stoned, so
he couldn't remember anything.
Well, here's a little jiggling of your handle.
Global Village is not created by the motorcar, or even by the
aeroplane, it's created by instant electronic information
movement. The Global Village is at once plan as wide as the
planet and as small as a little town where everybody is
maliciously engaged in poking his nose and everybody else's
business. The Global Village is a world in which you don't
necessarily have harmony, you have extreme concern with
everybody else's business, and much involvement in everybody
else's life. It's a sort of and landers column writ large. And
it doesn't necessarily mean harmony and peace and quiet. But
it does mean huge involvement in everybody's everybody else's
affairs. And so the Global Village is as big as a planet.
And as small as the village post office. For example, in the age
of the information explosion. All the walls go out between age
groups, ethnic groups, between family groups, nation, national
groups, between economies, the walls all go out, people
suddenly have to adjust themselves to this new
proximity, this new interrelationship. And merely to
tell them that this has happened doesn't very helpful for helpful
what they need to know is, if it is happening, what does it mean
to me, for example, in the matter of say, automation jobs
screwed? Screwed, by
the way, by the way, that what his the lower commentary there
reflects on an earlier segment of the show where you got your
call from Holland about the shootings in Texas as if they
should care. Yeah, there but in and
they witnessed it as if they were there, because they
witnessed the video they witnessed firsthand. So that's
what he would call satellite. Now, final clip short. This is
this was very astute when I heard this, and it made me start
to think okay, what exactly are we looking for
the medium does things to people, and they're always
completely unaware of this. They don't really notice the new
medium that is wrapping them up, they think of the old medium,
because the old medium is always the content of the new medium,
as movies are tend to be the content of TV. And as books used
to be the content novels used to be the content of movies. And so
every time a new medium arrives, the old medium is the content
and it is highly observable highly noticeable. But the real
real roughing up and massaging is done by the new medium and it
is ignored. Yes.
So what exactly is being ignored? That is being built
with the new medium while everyone obsesses over the old
content in the new medium. And with that, I mean, cable news
clips, Netflix, even Netflix, Netflix, they to a degree,
they're creating something new, but not really they're still
doing the old content on the new medium, repurposing, and
producing in similar ways. So maybe podcasting is an example
of something that was completely new. I think
I say, Well, we do which is a postmodern form of old medium is
exactly what he's talking about. Yeah.
Which is why we're doing it. Really?
Yeah, I'm doing it to stay alive.
Well, it's just part of it. To stay alive. It's just like you
fall into the you fall into it. Well, I have managed to get
somebody's got to do
it. I have a feeling everyone who's a part of this value for
value network is in one way or the other part of something much
bigger than the individual parts and maybe that's a good time for
me to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you
the man who put the sea and climate eraser John C. De avora.
Morning to you Mr. Adam curiosa in the morning all ships to see
boots on the ground, feet in the air subs in the water. And all
the dames nights out and the morning
to the trolls in the troll room. Hey, trolls How you doing now?
No agenda stream.com where you can check in 24 hours a day,
seven days a week. There's always at least 100 people in
there. Even the middle of the night. They got the talk in
there trolling there listening to shows and we got a tonne of
great shows a lot of them happen live check it out for yourself.
It's free. No agenda stream.com I'd like to say a hearty in the
morning to Darren O'Neill hat trick week. How could we not
give him the hat trick three album arts in a row for episode
1169 That was titled hockey stick hoax. It was just a great
collage of buttons, including the disgust better dead than
read the my other job as a podcast button you trigger me
I'm scared and never reboot If and there was there was good art
but let me just take a look
there's a lot of stuff but we did have a debate over a couple
of pieces.
Oh, so a lot of people did the the unhoused with the homeless
experience which was like a Disney ride. Yes and I think
Mike Riley did a very good version but it was so once you
look at it in a smaller format there was just so much going on.
Mike Riley that was the competitive piece. Mike Riley
had a piece it it was very fun house and it was horrible
actually it was a gruesome piece but it was it was all original
art very nice piece make a great poster yeah small
so yeah if you haven't if you blow it up really big and you
just looking at it it's totally crap what
it was too busy didn't pop Yeah, yeah, the difference was is that
the Darrow kneel buttons which were simple by comparison.
like a mofo
yes like a mofo? That's right.
And some others have a lot of it was
well, I thought Nick the rats. We had this common he had the
scooters flying through the air for scooter NATO. Oh, yeah. And
then but we decided to use scooter NATO as the opening and
then we had to title it something different. It was very
complicated. It's when you think you're done. You still have a
lot of work after the show. Everyone's off partying,
drinking. Smoking weed. We are just choosing art and coming up
with the perfect trio of of bits to
I want to say that one of the pieces from the show but the
camping one. Yes. Bye.
Oh, that was also very good. Yeah,
I thought that was really a wonderful, incredibly great
piece. It wasn't going to look as well as a cover. I was gonna
pop so much. But I use it for the newsletter so I can at least
push it out there. Good. Good. Well deserved it was just
because it's a dynamite piece. Yes. It's got all those little
post signs that you see when you go camping.
It was it was it was a lot of science. Yeah, it was a lot. It
was good. It was very good. So thank you for that. And these
things really helped the show. That's why artists do it. We
have 10 times as much artwork as we've done episodes where over
14,000 pieces of art and no agenda art generator.com. But
when something like that just pops out, it helps people
listen, it makes it reminds people Oh, something changed.
We're one of the few podcasts that adhere to the spec, as
invented, where you change the album art and I understand it's
hard. We don't have producers but we have 1000s of producers.
Many of them do things like that many of them help the show in
other ways such as supporting us financially. And we'd like to
stop in the first hour and pay some respect to our executive
producers and Associate Executive producers and this is
for episode 1170 70

After hearing Adams comments on vaping and the insane media
coverage of the alleged lung illnesses Hi, I felt it was
necessary to set the record straight. I've worked on
regulatory and legislation vaping issue since 2011. I led
what was at the time and still holds the record for the largest
the largest vapour trade associations in the space. And
since departing the organisation I've consulted to companies
larger and small and large and small. I speak routinely at
meetings like all like all the annual tobacco conference hosted
events by the Food and Drug in Law Institute. She goes on and
on with their background. The vapour industry is regulated but
no vaping products have been approved by the FDA. In fact,
there is very little there's very little battle. There's no
battle going on the large
battle, a large battle you want me to read this is very small
here?
Well, you might The problem is that this is the one moment that
you picked to do the thing where the sun is hitting the base of
my monitor of your shots. And right. There's the abyss of flat
base and slamming me in the face.
Okay, so let me pick it up. In fact, there's a very large
battle going on who's likely final outcome will wipe out all
vapour products on the market. As of May 10 2020, any vaping
product that has not submitted a PMTA pre market tobacco
application will be considered an illegal product. This is this
is actually some interesting news. This is content here. So
to address one of your quotes directly there are no approved
products that have gone through the regulatory process. Jewel
routine routinely gets torn apart by the media, the FDA and
the CDC and every anti tobacco group out there. Jewel has been
excoriated by pretty much everyone so they're not
protected or immune from media coverage. I don't work for
jewel. Altria took a 30% investment in jewel to the tune
of 13 billion and they don't own the company oh crap they 13
billion they only have 30% can believe that. In fact they don't
even have a board seat and direct no activities at jewel
including their media coverage. The vaping illnesses being
poorly reported on a largely attributed to synthetic THC or
backroom type stuff yes that we did say that not vaping products
like nicotine containing liquids in them. For a very good
overview and more read this article from vaping 360 And as a
URL and let's see the same data claims jewel is responsible for
the epidemic of teen teen vaping Lampson lumped in together
nicotine based products with marijuana based products which
are used quite a bit amongst teens. It is true that THC
cartridge producers do not generally add nicotine to the
mix. Although such product does exist. If you ever want factual
information about the regulatory shitstorm that is about to
destroy the vaping industry, please feel free to contact me.
You know what, Cynthia, first of all, thank you very much for
this. I think we we've been following vapes, vaporising for
a long time I went up to the Dallas convention with with
Dexter, which was a couple of years back. And so this is good
to know. And even correcting us on the 13 billion for only 30%
of jewel that day that would have monsters company, what a
monster is product?
Well, the thing that's in there is that this 13 billion invested
in the Jhulan. And the company that did the investment isn't
helping with their PR, which is dreadful. Yeah. That's an issue
that somebody should address. Yes, after they haven't gotten
anybody on the board, which is probably a bad idea. Yeah. What
kind of what kind of you got $13 billion around, you put somebody
on the board? Maybe two people, you know, they've obviously been
successful. Yeah. Um, but if she thinks that the whole thing is
gonna go down the tubes?
Well, that what we're going to wind up with is just a few
companies who will have sanctioned products, and then we
kind of figured this out early on is that you know, it's going
to cost you have to do a million bucks to go through FDA approval
per, per flavour. So, anyway, so a lot of this is just virtue
signalling, there's no, there's no, there's no regulation yet.
So it's all just media manipulation, the making it
sound like there's all kinds of stuff happening,
but it's all behind it.
Well, I'm gonna say the competitors I'm saying anybody
who's behind it, but when I see the media keep picking up the
same exact stories as though it's like a virtual like a press
release. To the you know, about the lung damage.
I would say this company is behind it, because what they're
trying to do is, yes, why not? Of course,
they get bad publicity. They're going
to be the only guys doing it legally when all this is over.
Maybe not that, put that in the book for me. Anyway, Cynthia,

track everyone's accounting. It's the honour system and why
wouldn't we we're one group. So we just need Neil's to send his
his numbers in. Not that we don't believe you. We just want
to make sure that we do it right. So if Niels can
certainly give a talk if that's the title he wants we have no

John Foley out of Chicago comes with $232.55 which is tribute to
the birthday. Jingles. Yeah, he's got some jingles ever.
Reverend Al respect you go karma and that's true. Yeah, in the
morning. Happy belated birthday to Adam and happy actual
birthday to me. It's my first time in the first half of the
show and I would go there was first executive producer.
Excellent. Excellent. I want to say thanks for keeping the keep
me sane and such a little unconventional and a bit brash,
but I can but can I call out? Sure. 10 t it gives us 10 t as
a douche. debate just you can,
sir. Can't be a douchebag
gotta be careful. You can do whatever he wants. He has to
deal with them tonight.
If only for the fact that tonight he'll be cheering for
the Oh, okay. football game on tonight he because he's gonna be
okay we hold on a second stop the show. We've talked about
this before he's cheering for the Packers over the bear. So
this guy's a Bears fan. The bears. He says this is
suboptimal? John any early Super Bowl predictions. Yeah, the Rams
will be the Super Bowl. And in this time, they'll win. The
that's an early prediction. I haven't seen one. Wait,
wait. Don't get to predict anything. Well, you can predict
all you
want, but he didn't ask you. But let's back up a second. We're
not doing douchebag call outs for sports teams. One where are
the policies? I
didn't realise that I died. Can
I hit the button? Because you didn't realise what your Salah
was. Yeah, I don't blame you. But I'm just telling you
everyone out there says don't start douchebag in the different
football baseball teams. And it's not part of the what we're
doing it for. Because for one thing douchebag in the Packers
isn't gonna get us you know he's not gonna drive anywhere from
the Packers all I got douche bag. I'm gonna donate to the no
agenda show. They don't do that. Because nobody had the Packers.
The Green Bay Packers. Not one person on that team listens to
this show.
Which is abhorrent when you think about it.
It is ridiculous but true for the Argentine want the rings.

tip of the hat to hug story PS Adam did you get the mix I sent?
I don't know which mix that is I've gotten a lot of mixes. So
I'd need to know what the mix was. Probably he's a
magnetic
you've got the karma.
You ask. We play
I'd like to Donald last on the list. dude named Craig FEMA
Region Five in Warrenville, Illinois. which I assume is FEMA
Region Five and tuner bucks. John and Anna MiTM please do
Shmi
you've been de deuced
you nieces jingles is another get you into jingles at the
beginning that this is really interesting that this on this
show that really is the theme he's looking for. That's true, a
triple. That's true. The truth is true. I've been listening
since the end of 2017. And have since hit my brother Scott in
the mouth. Please call them out as a douchebag. Okay. For you,
Scott, but also give him a jobs camera as he continues to seek
out his dream job that I know he'll get. And has it because he
has an upcoming interview. I'm a 30 year old millennial and hate
being called as such. I don't want to be debt. I don't want a
handout. I'm not attached to my social media, or smartphone.
Just know that there are some aberrations out there are
outliers as we'd call them out there. And they're and they're
proud and living life in a
better way. No, no, no, stop. They're not out there. They're
here. They're in this group where you are the ones that are
not crazy and all in are here, most of them.
But I do enjoy making fun of us. It's too easy what we do too.
That's truly everybody does. It's true. My consistent
listening has finally I don't know finally turn into a an
atomic habit and gives my life a what's an atomic habit? And
gives my life so much balance. So I sincerely thank you too.
For every your courage. Also, I constantly tell my smokin hot
girlfriend Kristen, about subject matter from the show. So
give her a shout out just to say that means a lot to me that she
keeps listening to the to me vent. She listened to the show.
Shout out to Kristen Hey, Chris. When we met on our first date, I
told her about the show. Okay, let's let's not stop
stop stop, stop. Okay, hold on. Let's get some dating advice
here. Yes, let's we need to do something before I come on.
Do not discuss the show on the first day ever,
ever. This is a bad idea. I mean, you might get enough clues
like the end of the evening.
Unless she some like Hillary hater. That is just maybe a
right wing gun nut. And she hate you know this yet new. There are
certain women out there that yeah, you can talk about the
show immediately. And they'd be very happy to hear about it. But
generally speaking that's a that's not the normal person you
run into. No, this
is bad policy.
It's bad policy. Yeah. She genuinely told her about the
show and she seemed intrigued and not triggered or annoyed.
Okay, she likes you maybe is that possible that she would
just know maybe you're just a sexy
man. Yeah, who know I
knew it was something to definitely pursue
like this guy's got money. I don't care what tinfoil hat
stuff. He's talking about the
in a sniff test so to speak. Yeah, you're you're doing it
wrong. Here's hoping you do not find an exit strategy. dude
named Craig FEMA Region Five Chicago land.
Ah, oh my goodness. Okay. And also a jobs karma for your
brother Scott. And the That's
true. That's true. That's true jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's

and we'll do it again on Sunday go to vote.org/and There's no
doubt you know more about vaping than most of go out there and I
don't know propagate. Our formula is this. We go out. We
hit people in the mouth
Boom. Yes boom Yes. Okay.
Well I've got some stuff that I this was a there's a guy that
does kind of a financial oh it's a video podcast is is for
investors mostly his good guys named Kyle bass and you
know if I saw this is the guy in the hangar?
Yeah the guy in the hangar now known hanger I thought it
was interesting that you went back to the band and interview
we played clips from and you pulled more clips from it. Well,
I
went the band and one the one I sent to you was this Chinese
guy. It's the same Interviewer Right? Yes, same guy. Yeah. And
the guy's an expert in
bankers, Chinese banking and
Chinese banking, currencies, banking, currency exchange,
currency trading, that kind of thing is very interesting guy.
He's not quite he took out he took on Bannon, Steve Bannon and
Bannon has a very interesting hour long spiel that he gives
and I've talked about it before and I've kept wanting to get
clips right but in this case, this guy's was better at drawing
Bannon out.
Excuse me, excuse me. You do know it's Banyan. banya then van
Yes, Van
drop Banyan. In concise ways, either that or Banyan has been
doing this bit long enough that he's polished his act. Oh, Mike
fall. Mike came out of his little holder on a second.
Again,
yes, okay. You shut back in the hole.
Here we go. It's back in. All right. So let's play I got a
bunch of clips. A lot of them are. I don't know how long are
these things are minute half minute as one that's pretty
long. But it's good. Let's try it. Start with the summary,
little summary overview. This is bad and bitching and moaning Ben
is the number one guy complaining about China. And I
believe within these clips, or be at least two or three things
you've never known about before. And you'll find interesting not
necessarily the opening. This is kind of a background
at Davos, the people on Wall Street, what I call the IR
departments of China, which are the investment banks,
particularly Goldman Sachs and some commercial banks, the
lobbyists for China, which is the basically the 25 or 30
largest corporations that deal in China today. They're their
lobbyists in Washington, DC. These are all in the big private
equity guys like Schwartzman, these guys are all going to have
to be held accountable for what went on in China. What China was
able to do in basically coordination with the elites in
the West was D industrialise the industrial democracies of the
West, both Europe in the United States. That's why Brexit in
2016 are inextricably linked. What it is, is the exporting of
Chinese overcapacity and Chinese deflation, and basic industrial
goods. And so China has it from the Chinese point of view has
been quite brilliant. They've essentially taken 350 million of
their people from kind of working poverty to middle class,
and 400 million people from abject poverty to working
poverty. So essentially two thirds of their of their
population because their population I really think is
closer to 1.3 or 1.4 billion than what they say at 1.1. So
what they've done is heroic in 30 years, okay, from from a,
from a strategy point of view, but that has been exacerbated by
the elites in the West who basically kind of finance it and
brought it along. In fact, what Trump The reason Trump was, I
think so special. He said, Hey, this is not the way the world
has to be.
And just for those who may have forgotten, Steve Bannon on the
show, known as Stephen Banyon, was the Trump's right hand man
when he first got into the White House and for a while, of
course, during the campaign,
and then he Yeah, mostly, he's just kind of an intellectual
man. He kind of got ceremoniously. Yes, yes.
And he was, he's irascible, he never shaved and he's kind of a
mess looking guy doesn't keep them care of himself, despite
his Hollywood underpinnings and
he knows he owns a big piece of the Seinfeld show. And he has
Breitbart he is the guy knows he's been around.
He's got a lot of money and he's been around he doesn't care.
Yeah, but he does hate the Chinese situation. And he his
claim in general is that it's our bankers are people that that
we're all part of a prop making China what it is, and he thinks
it's a house of cards, it's going to collapse and it's going
to take luckily because if you listen to these other guys,
though, we're not so linked to the banking system over there
because the apparently the banks are all Corn abandoned,
insolvent and the whole thing is a mess. And it's something but
they're meanwhile, they're kicking our ass in different
kinds of ways. So let's look. Now here's the various different
little aspects to this. This one is, and these are all different
discrepant clips that don't really connect, there's just one
different one after another for for informational purposes.
Let's try this one Bannon on Chinese students.
Find defence department report on the infiltration of China
into our research universities in our lab and a weapons labs,
weapons labs funded by DARPA, the Air Force and why have why
haven't we put into place a proper people management
programme?
I want you to go back because I don't think people understand
these reports. These reports are essentially declassified reports
that showed that the 300,000 students are here on student
visas. Right. And the 10,000 contractors that we have in the
weapons labs that, you know, up to I think it's two thirds could
be intelligence assets, right, and some percentage or
intelligence
officers or agents, and they're working in our labs. They're
working in our labs. This is on weapons technology funded by our
government. This is
political correctness, and greed and avarice writ large, how did
cuz second time we've heard writ large on this show. Isn't that
interesting? Marshall McLuhan used that in one of his plays,
and he said writ large, well, good, we don't use it. What does
this mean? It means it means to an extreme
Oh, and greed and avarice writ large? How did contractors and
let's call them at Booz Allen, and because all these
contractors, how do these contracts? Are these big
government programmes? get so many Chinese nationals working
into our weapons labs, our weapons labs are at the cutting
edge of national security. How did it happen? And so this has
got to be done right away. I don't know why it's been a huge
thing, bone of contention inside the administration, the
political correctness of it all, Stephen Miller, the Financial
Times in London, leaked the other day that my colleague,
Stephen Miller, who's a terrific young man actually had the plan
in place to get all 300,000 Chinese students out of the
country, right of way to cut the visas off right away. Not that
we're going to execute on it, but it was even in thinking and
obviously it got leaked, in the in the times that goes around
the State Department cetera, right? You remember, look at all
the pieces, I am so glad I take great pride that someone like
Susan Thornton is now you know, owns a farm up in Maine, because
she was part of this kind of, you know, rational
accommodationist this kind of softness in the in the defence
department in the in the State Department in our intelligence
services that basically went along with what China want to do
and look the other way.
Donald Trump don't trust China, China is as Hoh.
So that's a little tidbit we don't really think about. Let's
listen to Ben and talk about the South China Sea. This is kind of
interesting to
oh, this is about the dashed line.
Yeah, a little bit.
One thing I found that was shocking is that the South China
Sea when I was a young naval officer, we went through the
South China Sea guns up radars up everything movings called
free navigation we did in international borders, what we
want to do when we want to do it, because we're the United
States Navy, okay, we keep the sea lanes free. What I found out
now is they get these reads everything like that. And China,
we only go through what's called safe navigation. You go through
with your radars off no fire control solutions, like a good
little boy, just kind of go and you're basically answering their
permission to go the South. I was on South China, they
consider they consider when they lost the international court.
China considers the South China Sea to be an internal sea to
China.
I know they did it. And I think
we played this exact clip X
came down a line they they think it's what they think is a
territorial sea. I know they are not prepared. The first thing
they'll tell you that the territorial integrity and the
sovereignty of China is not to be questioned, not to be
questioned. And they consider that non dot line and know the
more people put it into documents, the more people put
it on TV shows, the more people that reinforce that meme they
want because they believe that that's reality. Yeah, you asked
me what's going to happen. The South China Sea I said on my
radio show five years ago being a shooting war.
shooting war, okay. Okay, let's go on and listen to this one.
This is kind of interesting. This is another thing. I didn't
know anything about. The Confucius Institute.
Oh, I thought we talked about this. It's big on tinfoil hat
shows. The Confucius and this is an Alex Jones topic. one
more issue is the Confucius Institutes. Yes, the Confucius
Institutes are on many of our colleges. They're funded
directly by the PLA Yeah. Why do r&d colleges allow especially
since
it would be like the, it'd be like in China having something
funded by the CIA. That was during the Catholic church, the
Catholic Church or not the Catholic Church or the Catholic
Church has kind of do that. Let's try. No, no, no, but
there's a huge issue. Pope Francis just cut a deal that
lets the atheist that run the regime in Beijing actually pick
our bishops. So the Catholic Church would not be a good
distance they've already countered, it would be
equivalent to having CIA D and I have a student centre that
promoted CIA culture, right to China in China. Yeah. Okay. That
ain't happening. Yeah, okay. No, it's not happening. Because the
Chinese say, hey, that's kind of not gonna, that's not going to
happen, because that may affect our sovereignty. Well, how?
So? Give me I've got a practical, you got to unwind
them? How
I think you just sit there and get to shut them down. Okay. I
think I don't think there's any way I think, hey, this whole
thing about you guys, people are saying, Oh, well, they're not
that bad, the pushing culture and they help students learn
Mandarin, hey, financed by the PLA,
they have server rooms in the Confucius Institutes what that f
is going, Oh, this
is gonna be a shock to the American people are gonna be
able to here's what the American people don't know this, because
nobody reports it.
No, some people do. In fact, I do want to counter that.
Although not completely in China, the National Endowment
for Democracy, which is what he should have used, as an example,
is all over Hong Kong, and we spent millions of dollars
spurring Hong Kong freedom on particularly in the most recent
events. So it's not it might not like it has to be seen a
I mean, I'm gonna tell you, I'm gonna call you out on this. Hong
Kong.
I said, it's not China proper.
And by the way, we shouldn't be doing that. Really, silly. Good,
good work we've been doing is getting these out. Or if we have
I question whether we really have much influence on these
riots. Well, the problem I gotta tell you that I got our protests
and they're not riots that a couple of notes from producers,
who said, you know, yeah, okay. The extradition bill, which now
has been cancelled, won't make any difference. This is
something else, the rents have risen 300%. In five years.
People are starving. They can't you know, this, it's shit. It's
all kinds of corruption. There's no, this whole extradition Bill
was really about getting corrupt bankers hauled hauled back home
to take care of them. Because the all of Hong Kong is one big
scam. It's a big financial scam. The way I read it.
Well, it's if you do talk about the the liquidity issues with
the banks of the big banks, or all the big bank, Chinese banks
are in Hong Kong. A whole China's a complete scam. From
the sounds of these guys.
Yes. But when you when you're living in Hong Kong, you get a
taste and a taste of what it's really like, you know, you were
born and you had nothing to do with the agreements if it go
away. I understand the problem in Hong Kong.
The last clip is another obscurity. And this is a little
interesting one just play the Alaska's ban and on the bat tax,
the
most elegant idea was the border adjustable tax, which is
immediately killed by you and I both know who I love. I love
that that was perfect in my opinion. Now, by the way, you're
not I
am I am a huge believer that and, you know, Paul Ryan, and
I've had our differences when it first he first walked me through
that and said, That's the solution. Exactly.
Right. That's the solution. It's kind of an egalitarian way of
going at it. I
think. I think we all know why got crushed. Yeah, I think that
that is something that should be brought back up is very quickly
in future years. We could
do away with tariffs if we imposed a border adjustable. You
got
to explain the border adjustable tax. I'm
not quite sure I knew you'd ask. Yes. I don't understand more
importantly, it seems to me who crushed it. So I'd do a little
research to figure that one out. Because it has been suggested
Bryce abort is really called the border adjustment taxes the bat
and I'll read from the Investopedia Investopedia.
border adjustment tax is short name for proposed destination
based cash flow tax on imported goods also referred to as border
adjustment tax destination tax or border tax adjustment in this
scenario exported goods are exempt from tax well imported
goods sold in the United States are subject to the tax so
there's no tariffs it's just the tax same thing it's the same
damn thing No, it's not no tariffs or tariffs or before you
pay in this case the difference is you go to the store and they
have one of these products you have to pay this tax you pay
with the bat tax. Yeah, border just tax depending on where the
good is consumed.
So it's like a VAT tax only for certain products. It's
it's exactly like a VAT tax for imports. Ah, well that's
unfortunate. Have a corporation ship tries to and then it gets
complicated when you go back and forth with car parts and stuff
like that. But it's pretty much been worked out. And it was
first introduced in 1997 by economist Alan Auerbach who
believed that Texas and would be in line with business goals and
national interests. This thing was killed by the Koch brothers
da
course that doesn't behove them.
Well, it doesn't boohoo a lot of people, but it was a bunch of
there's some political goes and the Koch brothers. And you know,
the Koch brothers don't come up in the conversation must because
everyone's still tries to, you know, they tried to bring this,
the Democrats tried to bring this nonsense about Citizens
United, and the Koch brothers into the picture when neither
one of those groups did thing. Or the Koch brothers, the Koch
brothers were, were spending all their money against Trump. And
since you can't associate Trump with the Koch brothers, because
they don't like him, and they've never supported him and they've
never given him their money even though apparently whatever they
give their money to they win, but they didn't. And they're all
this stuff about Citizens United that didn't affect Trump one way
or the other. And so you so did the conversation is dropped a
little bit about it, but they're bringing it back in, but they're
not working in in in good faith with the American public, even
though they you know, they're libertarians, and they have all
these high ideals.
And then David Koch dies two weeks ago. There's no
retrospectives. There's no one thank you from PBS that I saw
for supporting I think he was the big PBS support. Yes,
yes. It's not but now it's just Coke, bro.
We don't have Koch brothers. You there's no there's actually a
couple other but
yeah, but that does not funny. So it's Coke, bro. But
yeah, yes. In fact, the Koch brothers are huge supporters of
PBS newshour and everything in between. And yes, they should
have given them a tribute. But no, of course not. It just me
that the guys were like questioning, sketchy, but okay,
whatever, I don't care now.
But now just for a second back to the V A T instead of a value
added tax, it would be a border adjusted tax. And I think, I
think automobiles they actually they do know exactly what
percentage is German. If you look at a Mercedes, for
instance, parts of its America and you know, some of its
Chinese. And those those are broken down on new vehicles. I
do know that. And so they are those bits are taxed
differently. But that is before the consumer sees it. So it's
interesting idea I must should I be against this, I kind of liked
the idea of well, you can buy this product or buy this
important product. And here's where you have to pay extra
because it's important. Yeah, that's a that's an interesting
piece of friction to add to the mix.
Well, it adds a little barrier to entry for the product. But at
the same time, it gives you a realistic look at how value is
this product going to be for example, you know, they're going
to put the tax on cheese and wine from France at some point.
Yeah, of course. So you got your bottle of wine and you look at
the price and you The curious thing I bet you with the tax
added to the bottle of wine is still going to be cheaper than
you're going to get it in France
that's in in Europe, the price is advertised always include the
value added tax. So I don't think it's it's not in fact,
it's very uncommon, like in the United States where you buy
something and then there's Oh, and there's you know, five, five
cents sales tax or eight cent sales tax and that gets added on
at the end in so you wouldn't necessarily it will just be more
expensive and they could specify Oh, this includes X percent of
bat
Yeah, well, bat Yeah. Yeah. Apparently a lot of people like
this and it's been
sounds good to me. I don't know I I am drawn to it. I'm sure I'm
wrong. So it
sounds good to meet you. Where are you now? We're promoting it.
But we do you and me. Anyway, so abandoned if you're gonna get to
see these these long lectures if you can find this one. This is a
good one to watch. It's an hour. Yeah. And it's with this guy
bass. And it's online. It's it's about a year ago year and a half
of Kyle bass.
I think his name is Kyle
bass. Yeah.
Well, let's take a brief break here and go to KTLA is reporter
on the spot.
We tried to reach out to the man who died in this pursuit. They
were unavailable for comment mica back to you. Watch Yeah,
it's like great.
Who sent you that
that? Well, it's a single piece of video it's linked to it's a
YouTube video and it's not edited that I can tell so it
makes total sense.
We tried to reach out to the man who died in this pursuit. They
were unveiled trouble for comment mica back to you.
KTLA on the seat everybody. Are
you gonna get a clip of the day for? Get on the show?
I didn't recognise I would get that. Thank you. Just to stay
on. Sorry.
You knew you'd get that's
absolutely no, no, no, no, I didn't, I did not expect it to
be clipped with the day. But I'll take it. Alan Greenspan
made a rare appearance on CNBC. And he had some comments. Now
we, we think it's the guy who is that guy? Well, how old? Oh, how
old? I don't ask. Look at Andrea Mitchell. He's older. They're
married. Aren't they married?
Oh, yeah. The interest seems to me but but he's,
he was always a mumbler. And just, well, she's on CNN, this
is CNBC. So there's not a conflict of interest in this
case. So he's on the CNBC shows, and they're talking about the
economy, because that's what he's supposed to understand. And
then this negative interest rates, which we've discussed on
the show, which is taking place in, in multiple countries around
the world, certainly in Europe, which in an odd way, means if
you, if you put money in the bank to save, you actually have
to pay the interest. And if you pay if you borrow money, the
money if you borrow money to buy a house, they actually pay you
or you don't have to pay the whole thing back, which is just
a phenomenal concept. I thought, sorry. Yes, I'm
gonna say he's 93.
Then he's still pretty chipper. Actually,
I'm I'm all in. I'm giving him
this is a gimme, then
for Mr. Greenspan, I saw a headline that you were talking
about the idea of negative interest rates potentially
happening in this country? Do you think that's something
possible? And if so, what would it signify? Well, first
of all, what it signifies really is that the world population is
ageing, and that people are recognising that they're dying
off at a much later date than they originally contemplated
when they started to save. And as a result of that, there's
been an endeavour to pick up fairly quickly like the US
Treasury 30 year yield is terrifically useful, I would
say, offset to the other things that are going on in the market.
It's a real time. Yes. So the question, the reason, one of the
reasons that gold price is rising as fast as it is $1,500,
a pronoun that's telling us essentially, that people are
looking for basically, resources, which they know are
gonna have a value 20 years from now 30 years from now, as they
age, and they want to make sure that they have the resources to
keep themselves in place. That is clearly fundamental force
that's driving this, but we don't know how far it will go.
How far Chairman Greenspan, do you think it could go?
Do you think he could actually visit our shores as well?
Well, hardly likely that it's been, you know, for example,
take a look at Japan, you can see quite visually as as the
population goes down, and you can see pretty much throughout
the world. It's just a matter of time before it's more in the
United States. And I think the issue here is watched a 30 year
US Treasury yield, that's going to tell you what's happened.
All right, I'd be all for it. Pay me. God, we have a pretty
low interest rate on our house, but it can only get better. I'm
thinking refi refi. Pay me pay the points. Yeah, well, what's
Greenspan said he thinks it won't, it might not even take
that long. The problem
is liquidity drops like a rock as you approach zero interest.
What does that mean? That means the banks aren't going to give
you that loan that you can do your refi with us not gonna get
it? I mean, you could. Ideally,
yeah, well, between where I am now and negative interest rates,
there's going to be someone giving me something cheaper,
I presume, maybe, maybe not. You might be surprised how hard it
is to get refi well done. That's no fun. i It sounds good on
paper. And it's always it's always was a very simple
process. But more recently, you know, they talk about all the
interest rates on housing should do this and that anybody that
can't You can't shake the money, loosen these guys fast, he's
definitely not going to shake it loose if there's negative
interest rates, because the banks are making money. Because
they, you know, they take an X amount, say $100,000, and then
they receive negative interest rates, so they're just chipping
away at it and put it in their own coffers not going to loan it
to you.
So that would cause a housing crisis because no one can get a
loan to buy a house and then we get stuck because the housing
panel and then we Oh, I know the answer.
All hell is gonna break loose and you're gonna need a Bitcoin
you're gonna need a Bitcoin so on. I stay with CNBC for a
moment. Joe Kernan, who is the kind of the older man? He's not
even at all but the older host on that morning show? And he who
seems a little befuddled from time to time, he's he's kind of,
he's become a bit coiner. And then he's, well, I'd say he's
believing it. Okay, well, you don't think so?
No, I know, watch this show. I have no idea whether he believes
it or not more than what I can see people doing it. I mean,
there's a lot of true believers on the Bitcoin. I mean, you do?
I think Max is, well, max,
max, max is sincere. We all know Max is Satoshi. Let's leave it
where it is. So this is Mark Mobius, Mobius, famous investor,
and he gets into this short exchange about Bitcoin. And you
know, is it worth it? What happens is, they both end up
realising that holy crap, Bitcoin is not that much
different from anything else that we're peddling on this
channel.
Do you think that there are cryptocurrencies that have
inherent value? Like digital gold? Do you think Bitcoin, for
example, has inherent value?
If there's a crypto currency that is really backed by gold?
And that is there is a meaningful agreement and some
kind of monitoring of this connection, then this could be
quite interesting. That would be currency. That's,
that would be a no that that's what you're telling me because
there are people that think that blockchain itself imbues the,
the asset with inherent value, which is, which is why they call
it digital gold. But I mean, we seem to be okay with a lot of
fiat currencies that aren't backed by gold, you know, I
don't know, the full faith and credit of the government, but
nothing's backed by gold anymore. Except
ETFs. I don't know. I mean, what why, why would why would you
have any faith in any fiat currency that
now the bottom line is that there's a whole generation of
people who have faith in the internet, they have faith in
these cryptocurrencies, that's all it takes. The reason why
people believe in the US dollar is because they have faith with
dollars in the hands they can buy something. So the degree to
which a cryptocurrency can enable you to buy something, and
you believe that to be the case, then it's fine. But I think
people are going to begin to realise that this is a very,
very risky situations. And by the way, I believe blockchain is
a very high risk situation. You know, a lot of people say Oh,
Blockchain can't be broken into No It can be anything that's
created by man can be broken into and it could create a big
crisis. So I think we have to be very careful in blockchain.
Okay, Mr. Techno wizard. I think this is a seminal clip. Both of
those guys realised while they were talking that's why he threw
in some blockchain nonsense at the end, that they're full of
shit. The dollar is no more or less dependable than Bitcoin. In
fact, I would argue it's less dependable because a bunch of
Yahoo bronies in charge of stuff so I like that clip but if
you really honestly believed that you should change take all
your money and put it in Bitcoin. I have
been stacking SATs for quite a while. Okay, good ever since I
proclaimed to be a maximalist, I do that. It's, you know, we, you
and I have an agreement. We don't take Bitcoin as donations.
But I certainly convert, you know, a little bit every month a
little bit, I convert into Bitcoin. So I started doing it
around 3900. When when I maximised and we're looking at
where we are today, so that's triple the money. Yeah, you've
got 50 bucks. I got 50 bucks now. So I'm very, very happy. I
think it's, I think it's a seminal, seminal clip I was
supposed to go a little better than that. Anyway.
I'm gonna show my mood by donating to no agenda. Imagine
all the people who could do that. Oh, yeah, that'd be fun
well, we got a few people to thank for show 1170 I want to
start and I'm gonna give you I'm gonna turn it over to you. When
we get down to the tank. We Happy Birthday Adam test. All

schedule. It's crazy how that works.
Unbelievable. Let's see. All right, well, we got a couple of
disome news items going on. By the way. There's I want to do a
call back to earlier to first donations and we talked about
vaping. We did have a vaping and school
report locally. Tonight with rising health concerns over
nationally nationally, said vaping. Michigan has become the
first state to ban the sale of most flavoured e cigarettes. And
tonight we show you how schools across the nation are cracking
down hard as students get back to class. Here's NBCs and
Thompson.
They are back to school at Milford Connecticut, Jonathan
law high and back to lock bathroom. And principal Fran
Thompson showing us one of the four facilities off limits to
students to stem what she calls the epidemic of vaping.
In the girls room like this, they would literally I can't
believe I'm saying this. They would literally set up like
blankets. It would be like a little tent city where they were
just hanging out in the bathroom
teacher's monitor the other four bathrooms signing kids in and
out and you think it's made a difference?
I think it's made a difference in monitoring where the kids are
the teachers. The kids aren't going for 20 minutes out of
classes so that so that's helped. Do I think it's cut down
on the vaping? I don't know
it's a nationwide problem. In Texas. Some schools make kids
roll up their long sleeves so they can't hide the devices. In
February Nebraska they You're randomly testing students and
extracurricular activities for nicotine. There are vape sensors
in Illinois and New Jersey bathrooms, like lungs have
collapsed. Back in Connecticut. These students don't vape but
they know who does. It sounds
like a smoker's cough. Yeah. Territory sports practices where
they're like they're wheezing and eating, and like, you know,
everyone's doing laps.
What was once High School cool now with an increasingly high
cost.
I'm not so sure it's that different from the amount of
kids who were smoking cigarettes in the bathroom back in the day.
Well, when
I was a kid, yeah, this has gone through a series of changes.
This is different because it's always different. When I was a
kid, there would be a few bad actors that would go into the
bathrooms and smoke cigarettes. And they're always the punks,
you know. And there were the they were all they're still
smoking cigarettes, as far as I know. And they're in the
bathrooms. And Dan, when I got it, actually beyond college and
be in the workforce, I heard of the same school. Oh, yeah. No,
the kids, they all go into bathrooms. They smoke dope. So
all the kids there was nobody smoking cigarettes in the
bathroom. I was told they're on their smoking joints, which I
thought was a change. Okay. And then it went on. And then now it
became they're all vaping. And I don't know what they're vaping
because this report doesn't say anything marijuana? Are these
just vaping smelly stuff?
Well, that's, that is the problem. There's so much and
this is why I believe that all this disinformation is being
thrown into the market. So one can emerge victorious. It's got
to be the $60 billion beast. Because that's about what
they're valued at based upon the $13 billion 30% acquisition
30% $18 billion. So yeah, it all comes down to who's making what?
Yeah, if you get your THC cartridges made by some dude,
and believe me, I've tried them. If I gave it back, makes me
cough the minute I try it, so I don't know what it is. But go
away with this stuff. Vaping now I haven't had a problem with
that. It but I get reputable. It e juice. And I'm not a big
believer in just accepting whatever Joule jams into their
ready made cartridges. I'm not a big fan of that. e juice. It's e
juice baby. The lid juice? Well, it's e liquid, but I prefer
juice. Because if you can see that she's
right, wherever there's a lot of ways you can go with this
material, but I'm not gonna go anywhere. Well, why don't we
just get the money goes to Israel.
Oh, let me get them to get the Oh my gosh. Can you see that
Jews? Yes. Lovely. Before you go any further, I would like to do
a quick update on the Austin unhoused situation.
Oh, yes, I definitely. That's where I have a high priority.
Yes. Yes. Do you do that at the beginning of the show, as far as
I'm concerned?
Yeah. Well, I just didn't work out that way. We started with
God, climate change. What were we thinking? We didn't put the
we blew the lead. So there was another public forum on Austin
homelessness, which we call unhoused. From this show, and
this was at St. Edward's, the university and there was another
panel of Jim oaks and the mayor. But this one finally got rowdy.
And this was right after the show. On was that, I think was
Sunday, wasn't it? Yeah, I think I think they they did this on
Sunday. And people are now pissed. And now they're yelling
they're hooting and hollering. Some Infowars reporter came in
and just an I don't have a clip of that, unfortunately, hijacked
everything and he got kicked out. So when you hear in this
report from local station KX A N, one person was removed. That
was the Infowars guy who had a megaphone is yelling, everybody
was not really productive for the conversation. But it didn't
matter because it was pandemonium. A
lot to digest this morning after another a heated public hearing.
When it comes to changes to the Austin homeless ordinance.
More than 300 people showed up last night. Some of them were
very vocal both with the council and with each other.
What was it take for this board to repeal the lenient changes
they made in June that can lead to a shanty town we cannot
normalise many town that doesn't help anybody who doesn't know.
City council members and integral care worth forum at St.
Edwards University. Those people that you heard yelling there in
that video were actually some of the cool Homer one at least one
person was kicked out.
Yeah last week the city manager recommended restrictions on
where homeless people can camp. One guest at the meeting said
that he wants to make sure the watershed area behind his house
is included in that plan.
We were told by APD that it's probably not a good idea to go
back there right now that there's there's a couple of
individuals that night might not be saved. $4 million
and the disruptions continued at a post forum press conference
with Mayor Steve Adler Mayor Adler says City Council will
consider increasing the funding for the homeless budget ad next
week. He says the city has to act now because next year they
will be constrained by new property tax restrictions. He
also said revenue from any expansion of the convention
centre could be used on the homeless issue.
And there you have it that's always the answer. Don't reverse
the dumb ordinances that you that you removed two months ago
no, just say oh, we need more money. And yeah, we're gonna
charge everyone the max tax rate this year because we won't be
able to do that next year. So let's just you're gonna pay for
it. We need more money. Oh, thank God there are people
getting pissed off now we need a lot more of that. Because this
is almost old Austin versus new Austin and it's glorious to
watch
and people assume oh Austin wants to get rid of the homeless
Yes. Well, they at least want to turn back the go ahead and camp
anywhere and everyone uses the same argument you're you're
doing exactly the wrong thing you're doing what every other
liberal city has done and look at their results.
Yeah, the results are always bad. Ah, anyway so I'm well we
can do it better. Well, we know the mistakes were made but we
can do it better.
We can do we can make we can make bigger mistakes with more
money. We just need more money.
You know, the shanty town thing did come up in the conversation
I'm I'm of the opinion that you're just gonna have to bite
the bullet in these towns, these liberal towns and let a shanty
town crop up. It goes on in South America.
I don't I don't like your idea.
I know you don't. Nobody does. But it's the most realistic
thing you can do is let's be honest about
do you have shanty towns in multiple cities in California
and it hasn't really produced anywhere?
There's no real true shanty town every street corner No, that's
not a shanty town.
Well, okay. I mean, how many how
many? It's just a bunch of people hanging around and you
know, to hanging out with tents? Yeah, no, no. Okay. I'm not
talking about camping. Should take call it now. Homeless
camping.
Yeah, not homeless. You just camping Lea just
people camping, you know, I talked about you get a couple of
acres. You put some acres together in an area, there's
really some places you can get water to use the water truck
that would work. Bring it in once in a while and you everyone
have their own buckets and let that let you build little lean
tos. Hmm. Well, to have its own government its way it's like in
Brazil in the favelas. They have their own governments.
But that's my point is the favelas are a huge issue.
Yeah, and also with shanty towns, but this is diagnosing
any other solution. Yeah, but they can't seem to address the
problem correctly. So you might as well just let it fall into
third world style. Well, it works outside of Africa. There's
dogs as little towns in Africa there's little shanty towns
outside the cities Missouri they all South America, there's used
to be Romani encampments all over Europe, and you know,
similar to a shanty town when they they move. I mean, you
can't do anything about it because they're not doing
anything about it. Well, it go to a fallback position.
And so what you're saying is designate an area where the
shanty town can prosper
that make it sound like it's a joke.
No, no. That's exactly what you're seeing a designated
place. This is not your idea alone. People are saying Hey,
make a designated camping ground
and that will it should be a shantytown in camping ground is
no good those tents are no good you want the you know you want
to shoot anytime you want that kind of thing that people can go
and do reports about oh look at people that live in like You're
horrible. And then they show that then there's a soap and
sewer you want to open the Okay, you could have to design these
things. I Scott Adams has got something like this but he's
more not going to be like my thinking. You want an open
sewer. So you can be a guest and the open sewer and A turd going
down the sewer you know, just open. You want kids there's a
half naked guy wandering around y'all dirty you know?
Barefoot barefoot. barefoot. Wally playing, playing with a
rusty can
lots of dogs barking at everything. Yeah, we had a we
had a quasi set shantytown here and in the East Bay over on the
the bulb was called an old x garbage dump that's over by
Golden Gate fields in Albany. There was a there's this big
area that was was in the very far reaches of this is like an
like a peninsula that is built of garbage dumps from from the
20s and 30s. So it's it's green now and they got trees and
everything's growing on it. But there was a huge shanty town out
there was a genuine one you couldn't even go out to it
because there's too many pit bulls, you know, guarding the
place, but it was a shanty town and they let it go for years and
years and they finally went in there in the middle of the night
and tore it down.
We'll go back to what else we need in the shanty town. I was
kind of enjoying it. We were at barefoot children playing with
open sewers, lot of Lean twos and now there was people needing
to use Yes, yes, very good leftover gal, you know, that's
the kind of stuff that you make for kind of a galvanised
corrugated steel, and yes, very good chunks of that and got
corrugated fibreglass that's just got this loose, curvy thing
and then is pounded in and
you always need to have a boat trailer with half a boat on it.
Oh,
there's definitely a bunch of boat trailers and a half about
people living in the boats. open fires, burn barrels everywhere,
especially in the winter. And yeah, we could
find the perfect spot Tarrytown Terry. spec it out. We're going
to do that in Tarrytown here in Austin. Is that is there's a
joke in there, right. Oh, yeah. If you're in Austin, you're
loving it. Through all the rich. douchebags live is Terry
telling. Yeah, well, you
put it right next to him.
Oh, in what's before Tarrytown is I got to think about it. Yes,
that's a good neighbourhood to do it. There's lots of trees to
connect the shed that lean tos. Oh,
there's the trees are good. They clean the air.
Well, we're headed that way. So we're laughing about it. But it
ain't all that funny.
Do you while we're on that topic, though? There was an
article I wanted you to read. It was about how some cities like
Amsterdam have over tourism, over tourism. And they're trying
to limit the number of tourists that come in. Yes. Well, I was
looking at the numbers and the one that that article didn't
talk about Sam. I mean, it had San Francisco is number two.
Where they have too many tourists that concern the
population. The population of Amsterdam is about a million
with about 18 million tourists.
Yeah, that's 80 million people in the whole country.
Yeah, and they're all in Amsterdam, offering
this 80 million. Do you know that the Netherlands is at this
point? I believe more densely populated than Japan.
Yes, what yeah, it could be it's possible and and easy
calculation to figure out
because it's just room per square metre. So there's 80
million people in the country and 80 million come through his
tours and I think we talked about this they're doing active
tourist management to steer them away from Amsterdam get him to
go to the north, which is a total shithole has nothing to do
with old I mean it's beautiful if you want to live there but
it's all new. It's brand new and
when she wanted to go to the south you either go
to Rotterdam Rotterdam well Rotterdam would be better for
outstanding world class architecture old and new. And
they got good restaurants they got Rotterdam is a good place to
go. But yeah Delft and
they get that big picture you can look at them they have you
know the giant dam or whatever you call it the dikes the Delta
the Delta Works Yeah, you could they go there and they have a
little museum you can look at how the thing works
is different like in Amsterdam, but you can look at that too.
Yeah, you go look at some delta blue. You go look at how they
make cheese. But still, the problem is people don't go to
Amsterdam, but it's like oh, I'll go to the Anne Frank House
which is complete shit. The enhance and Frank house used to
be the Anne Frank House on the canal you'd go in and when I was
there they the walls were just the walls. Now they have what
plastic in front of plastic but what's the word? I'm looking for
Lucite or whatever in front of the walls because people were
were writing their names graffiti, so there's all this
graffiti, and they built this huge modern front and gift shop
called
monitor shop. Shop. Right? Yeah.
And the lines are outrageous. And it's nothing like a bad
Disney Land exhibit. You know, you come when you walk past like
something like going in there. Let's go to Space Mountain. So
this ruined and people are just there to party that just want
their drinking. Smoking. Annoying. Yeah.
Well, now that that same article talked about San Francisco, San
Francisco's population is, is a little less than Amsterdams.
It's smaller. Tradition has always been about 750,000. But
it's up to 900,000. They say, but it has the same number of
tourists. Pretty much it has 16 million. And they're stepping in
poop. Yeah, they don't know what 16 million Ms. 16 million people
in a town of less than a million, which is San Francisco.
It's a lot of tourists. I don't know what they do. I mean, I go
to San Francisco to shop at different places there that I
get certain things. Specifically,
did you say did you say population or population
tourists are all
on Fisherman's Wharf?
Yeah, what did they do there?
I remember as a kid going to San Francisco. And my parents were
all Fisherman's Wharf Fisherman's Wharf, and I still
don't remember what the where was it what the hell? Why was
what was something great that I missed? No, I just remember
getting rocked around the city and like, hi, no, no. And the
only thing I remember was, what's the windy street Lombard
which is now I guess it's it's over. You know this every night
on his reservation make a reservation to drive on the
road. When we were kids, it was better. It was. But whatever day
just a couple quickies? Looks like there are 1000s of names
that will be unsealed from Epstein documents. Oh, yeah.
Another unsealing?
Oh, sure. Well, this
one actually might happen. The judge Presta and this is from a
separate lawsuit from Jeffrey, one of the victims. And they
want to unseal a lot of information. And people are
really kind of freaking out because your name could be in
there. Even though you didn't do anything wrong. There's going to
be lots of names. You might have been some party or whatever. I'm
just saying this for your benefit. Just so you got a heads
up. Yeah, well,
I'm pretty sure I'm not on in those lists. I'm pretty, pretty
sure.
And I think we would be remiss if we did not mention Brexit,
the latest Brexit clip Yeah, we need to we need to update
everybody on Brexit. Not that there's any actual change is
just some more bull crap went down, but kind of in Boris
Johnson's disadvantage.
Yes, there's a move afoot to of course, extend the date, of
course. And they're trying to pay for a great or whatever is
pro rogue pro rogue, pro rogue pro roga, even though it did
tend to take this time off anyway, according to all the
experts. And Faraj as you know,
did you get the latest what happened yesterday? What? Oh,
no. So they they had a so what Boris Johnson said the way I
understand it is listen, we're going to get this done on time
by October 31 And it's in other words if there's no deal it'll
be a note if there's if there is no deal we will do a no deal
Brexit and any threatened otherwise, I'll call for an
election and yes, they voted yesterday on this piece of
legislation which effectively blocked him from which by some
crazy number like the parliament doesn't appear to
want to leave they love there's some there's some corruption and
there is Hello, Casablanca option indeed in the British
Isles. So what is
Faraj have?
So Faraj kid comes on, and yes, there's they blocked Johnson
from doing much and then they they're gonna maybe have an
election, maybe not.
No, there's no election because they voted it down. There's no
election
after Brexit disco. Okay. All right. All right. And Faraj was
talking about it turns out they did a pre poll on if they're
going to do an election before the Brexit and diversions Party
wasn't going to make any inroads. And so Nigel has
accused Boris, in this clip you'll hear it of doing double
dealing and actually going over and trying to sneak a deal past
everybody that is not going to be acceptable.
Remember what I said? Remember I predicted I said Boris Johnson
is not going to get it done. He will not get Brexit done. I
think he's doing sneaky deals. But they're sneakier than Faraj
may think.
Well joining us now is Brexit party leader Nigel Farage. Good
morning. Thank you. So when we look at those latest poll
results 13 14% doesn't translate into any sense at all. This is a
lot of effort bearing in mind that your motivation, your
raison d'etre is to see Brexit through, would you not be better
therefore supporting Boris Johnson, the conservatives to
make sure that Brexit does happen,
though 19 weeks ago, we lost the Brexit party. Why? Because we
trusted Theresa May we trusted the Conservative Party to
deliver Brexit. They didn't do it. So I formed the Brexit
party. We won the European elections, we reset the agenda.
I mean, if we hadn't been formed, Theresa May would still
be Prime Minister. Now Boris Johnson has picked up all the
lines we used in that campaign. Yeah, because we're winning,
we've completely reset the British agenda. And of course,
now no deal leaving with a clean break. Brexit is the most
popular option. However, we now find ourselves in a similar
position to that with Mrs. May. Boris is one, the leadership
telling us he will take us out on the 31st of October. But what
he's done in the last week is he's gone back to Brussels. And
clearly, he wants to reheat the failed withdrawal agreement that
was part three times rejected by the House of Commons. And if we
leave without the backstop, even without the backstop, it's still
the worst deal in history. Even without the backstop, it cost us
39 billion, it makes it virtually impossible for us ever
to leave the Customs Union, we will not be a free, independent
nation. So we are standing. And we will stand in every seat in
this election. And we say the Boris Johnson, if you sell us
out on Brexit, with this awful withdrawal treaty, we will fight
you and everything. And if you're right, in that analysis,
yeah. Why is it that your poll figures are dropping? And
history? Isn't the Conservative Party's figures rising if he's
actually pulling a fast one, and he's gonna give us because a
reasonable reason people haven't realised yet. So we're too
stupid to say yes, because it's too early. This only began to
happen last week, and you've got the loud noise says we'll leave
with no deal on the 31st of October actually look at what is
being said by Macron Merkel by Boris Johnson. Boris, in a
letter last week said it was his highest priority to get a
withdrawal agreement even a clean break Brexit.
Yeah, no, he's not going to get it done at all. At all. This is
not the European way.
This is not how the EU functions. Vote against slaves.
You did it wrong.
It's not right.
There was a funny moment, though. I was watching just
before the vote, which came around and like it was late for
them in the UK. There must have been four or five in the
afternoon here. And there was a pretty funny one. Some Member of
Parliament, who is I think Pakistani, and had the
appropriate outfit on. You know, Boris Johnson, at some point
wrote in an op ed article, I think this was a long time ago.
I believe maybe it was just this year, but I thought it was
longer ago. And he was talking about how the British I'm
paraphrasing how the British street street scene had changed
to when he said something because he called the burkas,
letterboxes or something really derogatory term. And this guy
stands up and calls him out on it. Let me see Here we go.
That might entertain some that Boris Johnson is a leader so
repels as well as attracts. Labour MP demanding an apology
that never came for a controversial column he wrote a
year ago.
Those of us who from a young age have had to endure and face up
to being called names such as coward or Taliban, or coming
from Bongo Bongo land we can appreciate the hurt and pain
well by already vulnerable Muslim women when they are
described as looking like bank robbers and letterboxes.
I never heard coming from bunker
I never he I think he made that up. I don't know but I didn't
teach them you throw in
made me feel good. Let's leave it on that high note. Yeah.
Okay. Bongo, Bongo land. I need to let you know Nick. The rat is
coming up next. From the sewer on no agenda stream.com. We have
a number of great end of show mixes from Jessie koi Nelson.
We've got Tom Starkweather and Rob and are the derbies with
some great mixes. I know you'll enjoy them. And we look forward
to returning on Sunday with another edition of the Best

Yeah, I'm from Northern Silicon Valley where 97% of all carbon

we return on Sunday right here on no agenda. Until then, as
always we say adios mofos and such
I know they feel so happy and gay about the straight pride
parade whatever it is, I'm against it. Count me out because
I'm this fence is where I would sit. Because I'm against says
pride it masquerades as hate now it's a crime to missionary great
pride parade. I'm against reason the bylaws get your permits to
commence it, but I'm against it. I'm opposed to it. Try
masquerading as on Marxist principles. I am a Bostonian.
He's a mess. I was born amongst the pronouns. I was taught the
paperwork I have sent. gender reassignment is a gift that
lasts forever. Once you commence
we're against it. The homelessness experience in
Disneyland. This is an exit strategy. I think we could
create this ride. Now. Do you sit in the ride? Or do you I
think you should also experience for a brief moment you stepping
into human faeces. I think the most enjoyable Disney rides are
in a cart, you know, and you got the music going on you like me,
okay, there's
two ways of going about this. This one is you're in the little
car, a little car a little thing, and it's going through a
homeless encampment and people are
all animatronics, like Pirates of the Caribbean.
Exactly like Pirates of the Caribbean, you're not you maybe
could be, you know, in a kind of a river of thinking, that would
be okay. But I think generally speaking, be better on rails and
you go through these things. And you see all these different
people did you have you go through the section where
there's a bunch of politicians trying to come up with
solutions? And they finally say, we just need more housing?
Then you can you can do it. Here's Los Angeles. And here's
Austin, you can have a couple of shows some differences.
But yeah, right. Yeah, you could take the car to one place or
another. You come out the other end of it and you feel real good
about yourself. And you now you understand, you understand now
you have evolved. That's one of the other one was the cheaper
way to go. When you wear some VR glasses or you're in a VR
situation that you experienced the whole thing only now it's
even more realistic. Not because it's not animatronics is not.
It's not dummies, and things like Pirates of the Caribbean is
the actual videos that you're seeing. Surrounded by the real
stench and filtered light and fans blowing the smell of Craps
in your face. And you go through the whole thing and you're come
out the other end pretty much with the same message but it's
just a cheaper way to do the ride and you now you understand
you understand now you have evolved
poor people used to live in the slums. Now the economically
disadvantaged occupies substandard housing in the inner
cities. And they're broke. Broke. They don't have a
negative cash flow position. Fucking bro.
They're not homeless. They are neighbours who are camping.
The people that are that are camping in your neighbourhoods
are your neighbours. They live in your neighbourhood
Do you notice a trend here you're not homeless. Your
camping is completely different, which also is
going to really help people that are camping currently, to live
in more sanitary conditions and be healthier themselves.
People just be in a place because they have nowhere else
to be it's not a crime. really starting to focus. really
starting to focus on on that from our communities, from our
house communities. We don't expect people experiencing
homelessness. To see them.
But we're talking to people who have been homeless unhoused
experiencing it for eight years, nine years.
12 years.
They live effectively outdoors and now they're all just coming
into the city and we can camp there why not? It's like closer
to everything is where
I can get drugs if I want them.
We ain't going nowhere. We're moving
right? It's a beautiful day in this neighbourhood. Beautiful
day for neighbours. Would you be good It's a beautiful day in the
neighbourhood. I'm still not going to see the movie. It's a
neighbourly day in the neighbourhood. I'm still not
going to see the movie one hell of a day in my neighbourhood to
handle a day for a neighbour would you be mine? Could you be
my
back get to move in the neighbourhood some day. The
problem is is when I move in your move away
rounds are blazing a nation is being torn apart with weasel
words hiding blame this game is allowed Teresa Mays parents they
came back from the dead just how many strange bedfellows can you
fit in?
Parliament is on the brink of record any deal that we might be
the smirk on her face showing such sweet shot and ROI now
Boris has been charged to get this ice in order the sleight of
