1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:01,740
By the way, by the way, by the

2
00:00:01,740 --> 00:00:04,560
way, by the way, by the way, Adam

3
00:00:04,560 --> 00:00:05,840
Currie, John C.

4
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:06,420
Duvourac.

5
00:00:06,520 --> 00:00:08,760
It's Sunday, February 1st, 2026.

6
00:00:08,980 --> 00:00:10,240
This is your award-winning, give-or-nation

7
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:12,700
media assassination episode 1839.

8
00:00:13,100 --> 00:00:14,600
This is no agenda.

9
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:19,940
We're all crustafariers now, and we're broadcasting live

10
00:00:19,940 --> 00:00:21,360
from the heart of the Texas hill country

11
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:23,360
here in FEMA Region Number 6.

12
00:00:23,420 --> 00:00:24,420
In the morning, everybody.

13
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:25,640
I'm Adam Currie.

14
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:27,980
And from northern Silicon Valley, where it's not

15
00:00:27,980 --> 00:00:29,580
snowing here, I'm John C.

16
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:30,180
Dvorak.

17
00:00:34,290 --> 00:00:36,290
I wouldn't expect it to be snowing where

18
00:00:36,290 --> 00:00:36,870
you are.

19
00:00:37,230 --> 00:00:37,950
Makes no sense.

20
00:00:38,090 --> 00:00:39,510
Well, you don't expect it to be snowing

21
00:00:39,510 --> 00:00:42,130
in North Carolina to this extreme.

22
00:00:42,710 --> 00:00:43,570
Oh, I haven't looked.

23
00:00:44,010 --> 00:00:44,590
I haven't looked.

24
00:00:44,710 --> 00:00:46,730
I'm surprised that Mimi didn't send me a

25
00:00:46,730 --> 00:00:48,410
Max Velocity clip to look at.

26
00:00:51,790 --> 00:00:53,990
I smashed that like button and I hit

27
00:00:53,990 --> 00:00:56,190
the bell and got the subscribe, but I

28
00:00:56,190 --> 00:00:58,110
didn't get a notification about the snow in

29
00:00:58,110 --> 00:00:58,210
North Carolina.

30
00:00:58,210 --> 00:00:58,950
You didn't smash it enough.

31
00:00:59,750 --> 00:01:00,050
Hmm.

32
00:01:00,850 --> 00:01:03,269
Hey, happy Black History Month.

33
00:01:04,489 --> 00:01:05,650
Ah, yes, yes.

34
00:01:05,770 --> 00:01:06,330
Let me see.

35
00:01:06,510 --> 00:01:08,950
No one's done anything about it yet on

36
00:01:08,950 --> 00:01:09,390
the mainstream.

37
00:01:09,570 --> 00:01:11,010
I'm disappointed.

38
00:01:12,210 --> 00:01:14,870
You would expect them to do something about

39
00:01:14,870 --> 00:01:16,090
their favorite community.

40
00:01:16,630 --> 00:01:18,050
Well, there's too much stuff going on with

41
00:01:18,050 --> 00:01:18,850
global warming.

42
00:01:20,350 --> 00:01:23,790
Well, since you bring that up, here's a

43
00:01:23,790 --> 00:01:27,150
funny little ditty on climate change and the

44
00:01:27,150 --> 00:01:30,270
measures we take to combat it from Green

45
00:01:30,270 --> 00:01:31,050
Mountain, Vermont.

46
00:01:31,490 --> 00:01:34,650
Green Mountain Transit's program funds are stretched thin

47
00:01:34,650 --> 00:01:36,190
and so are their buses.

48
00:01:36,610 --> 00:01:37,650
Take a look at this.

49
00:01:37,850 --> 00:01:40,210
These electric buses are less than a year

50
00:01:40,210 --> 00:01:42,570
old, but right now they're out of commission.

51
00:01:43,010 --> 00:01:46,370
These five new Flyer electric buses batteries were

52
00:01:46,370 --> 00:01:47,430
recalled in November.

53
00:01:47,910 --> 00:01:50,390
The manufacturer said they are a fire hazard,

54
00:01:50,590 --> 00:01:52,810
so they can't sit in the GMT garage.

55
00:01:52,810 --> 00:01:55,570
That's why they have that snow mohawk, or

56
00:01:55,570 --> 00:01:57,270
as I like to call them, snow hawks.

57
00:01:57,650 --> 00:01:59,870
The buses have to be 41 degrees to

58
00:01:59,870 --> 00:02:00,230
charge.

59
00:02:00,530 --> 00:02:02,430
And as Gunnar just explained, there's not a

60
00:02:02,430 --> 00:02:03,870
day of 40s in sight.

61
00:02:04,230 --> 00:02:04,590
Oh, no.

62
00:02:04,830 --> 00:02:07,430
GMT is working with Vermont agencies across the

63
00:02:07,430 --> 00:02:08,729
state and sharing buses.

64
00:02:09,250 --> 00:02:11,750
It's another example of Vermonters working together to

65
00:02:11,750 --> 00:02:12,730
get us all where we need to go.

66
00:02:12,730 --> 00:02:13,070
Oh, yeah.

67
00:02:13,150 --> 00:02:15,590
OK, well done, newsreader lady.

68
00:02:16,150 --> 00:02:16,730
Good work, Vermonters.

69
00:02:17,010 --> 00:02:17,990
Did I say it was, did I not

70
00:02:17,990 --> 00:02:18,650
say it was Sunday?

71
00:02:18,850 --> 00:02:19,950
Did I say a different day?

72
00:02:20,170 --> 00:02:21,190
Did I get my day wrong?

73
00:02:22,030 --> 00:02:24,670
Somebody, if somebody caught you saying, I wasn't

74
00:02:24,670 --> 00:02:26,110
paying attention.

75
00:02:26,690 --> 00:02:27,530
I wasn't.

76
00:02:27,730 --> 00:02:28,830
I normally am.

77
00:02:28,910 --> 00:02:30,870
But I know you did this mistake.

78
00:02:30,910 --> 00:02:31,650
You want to start over?

79
00:02:31,930 --> 00:02:33,230
No, of course not.

80
00:02:33,390 --> 00:02:35,070
Now that I've called it out here, it's

81
00:02:35,070 --> 00:02:35,410
OK.

82
00:02:36,210 --> 00:02:36,830
You're right.

83
00:02:37,230 --> 00:02:38,050
Yeah, it happens.

84
00:02:38,170 --> 00:02:39,690
So I have two weather report clips.

85
00:02:39,850 --> 00:02:42,130
Oh, we are in the weather.

86
00:02:42,390 --> 00:02:43,330
They're not long.

87
00:02:43,410 --> 00:02:44,170
It's no big deal.

88
00:02:44,190 --> 00:02:45,030
Here's the weather report.

89
00:02:45,150 --> 00:02:47,890
KU, this has got because somebody does the

90
00:02:47,890 --> 00:02:50,070
word knuckles is in here.

91
00:02:50,170 --> 00:02:51,030
Let's go with that.

92
00:02:51,190 --> 00:02:53,610
Severe winter weather is attributed to at least

93
00:02:53,610 --> 00:02:56,090
15 deaths in Kentucky in the last week,

94
00:02:56,430 --> 00:02:58,810
including an inmate at a Kentucky prison.

95
00:02:59,130 --> 00:03:02,590
Karen Czar with member station WUKY in Lexington

96
00:03:02,590 --> 00:03:03,310
reports.

97
00:03:03,530 --> 00:03:05,710
Forty eight year old Marvin Knuckles was part

98
00:03:05,710 --> 00:03:07,430
of a crew of inmates who were clearing

99
00:03:07,430 --> 00:03:10,250
ice and snow at the Eastern Kentucky Correctional

100
00:03:10,250 --> 00:03:12,650
Complex when he fell down a 40 foot

101
00:03:12,650 --> 00:03:13,870
embankment and died.

102
00:03:14,230 --> 00:03:17,570
Kentucky State Police are investigating the death, but

103
00:03:17,570 --> 00:03:19,830
questions have been raised as to why this

104
00:03:19,830 --> 00:03:22,330
group was out in sub freezing temperatures at

105
00:03:22,330 --> 00:03:24,870
night when Governor Andy Beshear had given a

106
00:03:24,870 --> 00:03:26,950
statewide order to stay inside.

107
00:03:27,410 --> 00:03:30,590
Beshear has promised a full and transparent investigation.

108
00:03:31,210 --> 00:03:34,370
Decisions made good or bad, they deserve to

109
00:03:34,370 --> 00:03:36,730
be seen by that family and by everyone

110
00:03:36,730 --> 00:03:37,070
else.

111
00:03:37,530 --> 00:03:39,910
Officials at the medium security prison say Knuckles

112
00:03:39,910 --> 00:03:42,350
volunteered for the ice removal assignment.

113
00:03:43,670 --> 00:03:44,390
He's knuckles.

114
00:03:44,570 --> 00:03:47,050
You just thought knuckles.

115
00:03:47,570 --> 00:03:49,510
And by the way, why are they why

116
00:03:49,510 --> 00:03:52,730
isn't a full investigation, a full investigation?

117
00:03:53,130 --> 00:03:55,410
Why is all of a sudden everybody, especially

118
00:03:55,410 --> 00:04:01,270
on NPR, using Democrats full and transparent, full

119
00:04:01,270 --> 00:04:02,430
and transparent?

120
00:04:03,010 --> 00:04:04,550
Is that different than full?

121
00:04:06,410 --> 00:04:07,450
No, it's not.

122
00:04:07,510 --> 00:04:07,970
It is.

123
00:04:08,070 --> 00:04:10,530
It is, in fact, wasting valuable airtime.

124
00:04:10,930 --> 00:04:11,930
I think so.

125
00:04:11,990 --> 00:04:13,490
And here's the other one I have, which

126
00:04:13,490 --> 00:04:15,850
is on the bomb cyclone, bomb cyclone.

127
00:04:15,930 --> 00:04:17,350
Oh, boy, it's still happening.

128
00:04:17,350 --> 00:04:19,550
The southeastern U.S. is beginning to feel

129
00:04:19,550 --> 00:04:22,810
the effects of a meteorological bomb cyclone ushering

130
00:04:22,810 --> 00:04:24,330
in blizzard like conditions.

131
00:04:24,870 --> 00:04:26,770
And for the East Coast in general, very

132
00:04:26,770 --> 00:04:29,490
frigid temperatures, six to 10 inches of snow

133
00:04:29,490 --> 00:04:32,230
could fall in Georgia, the Carolinas and parts

134
00:04:32,230 --> 00:04:33,410
of the Appalachians.

135
00:04:33,970 --> 00:04:37,430
Just so you know, this is Appalachians, but

136
00:04:37,430 --> 00:04:40,870
just so you know, they they're they're making

137
00:04:40,870 --> 00:04:41,490
this happen.

138
00:04:42,470 --> 00:04:44,270
They are making this happen.

139
00:04:45,110 --> 00:04:45,790
It's all yours.

140
00:04:45,930 --> 00:04:46,050
Go.

141
00:04:46,210 --> 00:04:50,230
You know, I recognize I recognize that now

142
00:04:50,230 --> 00:04:52,850
that I'm in my 60s, it's hard to

143
00:04:52,850 --> 00:04:54,930
say when I was a kid before I

144
00:04:54,930 --> 00:04:56,750
was in my 60s.

145
00:04:56,890 --> 00:05:00,010
Yes, I really have gone from being a

146
00:05:00,010 --> 00:05:03,290
conspiracy theorist to a conspiracy therapist.

147
00:05:03,310 --> 00:05:07,350
It's just like if it wasn't for almost

148
00:05:07,350 --> 00:05:11,230
two decades of this was discussed at the

149
00:05:11,230 --> 00:05:13,550
Albany, Albany, the Oakland meetup.

150
00:05:13,630 --> 00:05:14,410
Oh, yes.

151
00:05:14,530 --> 00:05:15,470
Which I have a lot of.

152
00:05:15,530 --> 00:05:16,350
By the way, there's going to be a

153
00:05:16,350 --> 00:05:17,770
lot of mentions I got to give.

154
00:05:18,110 --> 00:05:18,710
Oh, good.

155
00:05:18,910 --> 00:05:19,990
Oh, good segment.

156
00:05:20,270 --> 00:05:20,490
Yeah.

157
00:05:20,550 --> 00:05:22,510
But the which didn't get on the spreadsheet.

158
00:05:23,950 --> 00:05:27,490
It was mentioned there was this discussed by

159
00:05:27,490 --> 00:05:29,170
more than one person about you.

160
00:05:29,450 --> 00:05:29,610
Yeah.

161
00:05:29,670 --> 00:05:31,210
And what were they saying?

162
00:05:31,390 --> 00:05:32,210
What you just said?

163
00:05:32,290 --> 00:05:34,070
What happened to Adam in the second half

164
00:05:34,070 --> 00:05:34,850
of show stuff?

165
00:05:34,930 --> 00:05:37,050
And he's you're more nutty than he is

166
00:05:37,050 --> 00:05:37,610
now.

167
00:05:37,890 --> 00:05:39,530
I didn't appreciate that so much.

168
00:05:40,710 --> 00:05:44,410
But that sort of thing, because we've been

169
00:05:44,410 --> 00:05:45,090
through it all.

170
00:05:45,650 --> 00:05:47,610
Everything's been said that needs to be said

171
00:05:47,610 --> 00:05:48,810
this way.

172
00:05:48,910 --> 00:05:50,750
And none of it ever comes true.

173
00:05:51,430 --> 00:05:52,570
None of it ever.

174
00:05:53,330 --> 00:05:55,290
And especially with all the cell phones in

175
00:05:55,290 --> 00:05:55,610
place.

176
00:05:55,690 --> 00:05:57,090
Now, this is the real problem I think

177
00:05:57,090 --> 00:06:00,570
they have with everybody taking videos of everything.

178
00:06:00,810 --> 00:06:03,350
Where's the video of some alien walking down

179
00:06:03,350 --> 00:06:03,910
Main Street?

180
00:06:04,190 --> 00:06:04,370
Yeah.

181
00:06:04,810 --> 00:06:05,290
Thank you.

182
00:06:05,370 --> 00:06:05,830
Good point.

183
00:06:07,710 --> 00:06:09,690
But I think really what they're just mad

184
00:06:09,690 --> 00:06:12,170
about is I'm not on board with the

185
00:06:12,170 --> 00:06:13,490
Jew train and Israel.

186
00:06:13,710 --> 00:06:14,370
I think that's it.

187
00:06:14,570 --> 00:06:16,410
How come Adam isn't on board with the

188
00:06:16,410 --> 00:06:17,530
Jew train and Israel?

189
00:06:18,130 --> 00:06:19,370
What's going on with him?

190
00:06:19,410 --> 00:06:20,670
He should he should know better.

191
00:06:23,230 --> 00:06:24,050
That's what it is.

192
00:06:24,110 --> 00:06:25,570
That's they're disappointed about.

193
00:06:26,370 --> 00:06:26,470
But.

194
00:06:26,770 --> 00:06:29,330
And Epstein, you know, Trump did it.

195
00:06:29,910 --> 00:06:30,890
I do have.

196
00:06:31,510 --> 00:06:32,150
Did what?

197
00:06:32,290 --> 00:06:32,990
Did it all.

198
00:06:33,090 --> 00:06:33,830
He did it all.

199
00:06:33,950 --> 00:06:34,790
He's all part of it.

200
00:06:34,990 --> 00:06:37,850
The pedophiles, all of them, they're all being

201
00:06:37,850 --> 00:06:40,670
blackmailed by Mossad.

202
00:06:41,370 --> 00:06:44,290
I mean, I looked at my Twitter timeline,

203
00:06:44,410 --> 00:06:46,730
my inbox timeline, you know, the mentions.

204
00:06:47,330 --> 00:06:51,110
And there's people sending me like a screenshot

205
00:06:51,110 --> 00:06:55,710
of some grand jury testimony where Epstein writes

206
00:06:55,710 --> 00:06:58,550
to some unknown person because it's redacted.

207
00:06:58,870 --> 00:06:59,350
Yeah.

208
00:06:59,690 --> 00:07:01,330
And don't tell him I'm Mossad.

209
00:07:01,430 --> 00:07:01,790
OK.

210
00:07:02,690 --> 00:07:04,710
And the guy literally post that to me

211
00:07:04,710 --> 00:07:06,930
and says, oh, there you go.

212
00:07:07,030 --> 00:07:08,590
Still don't believe he's Mossad.

213
00:07:08,970 --> 00:07:11,330
Like, yeah, that's what you do when you're

214
00:07:11,330 --> 00:07:11,870
Mossad.

215
00:07:12,250 --> 00:07:14,190
Then you then you send email saying you're

216
00:07:14,190 --> 00:07:16,490
not Mossad and therefore you're guilty of being

217
00:07:16,490 --> 00:07:18,530
a stooge from Mossad.

218
00:07:20,050 --> 00:07:21,170
Oh, brother.

219
00:07:22,110 --> 00:07:23,930
Well, the only funny thing that came out

220
00:07:23,930 --> 00:07:26,950
was that was the Gates memo that was

221
00:07:26,950 --> 00:07:27,570
kind of huge.

222
00:07:27,610 --> 00:07:28,770
What was the Gates memo?

223
00:07:29,050 --> 00:07:31,270
Well, the Gates Gates saying I got STD,

224
00:07:31,390 --> 00:07:32,530
I need some antibiotics.

225
00:07:32,610 --> 00:07:35,110
And again, I hadn't seen that one yet.

226
00:07:35,310 --> 00:07:37,090
So I can dose my wife.

227
00:07:38,070 --> 00:07:41,170
Oh, secretly, he was he was he going

228
00:07:41,170 --> 00:07:42,250
to dose her secretly?

229
00:07:42,970 --> 00:07:43,330
Yeah.

230
00:07:43,830 --> 00:07:46,090
Oh, well, there you go.

231
00:07:46,090 --> 00:07:47,910
Now we know the true reason.

232
00:07:49,290 --> 00:07:51,770
If any wife finds out that her husband

233
00:07:51,770 --> 00:07:54,390
has an STD and then secretly is trying

234
00:07:54,390 --> 00:07:55,450
to dose her.

235
00:07:55,770 --> 00:07:55,910
Yeah.

236
00:07:55,990 --> 00:07:57,690
That's grounds for divorce.

237
00:07:58,390 --> 00:07:59,430
Well, what happened?

238
00:07:59,750 --> 00:08:00,110
Horrible.

239
00:08:01,030 --> 00:08:01,750
What happened?

240
00:08:01,990 --> 00:08:02,350
What do you mean?

241
00:08:02,390 --> 00:08:03,210
We got divorced.

242
00:08:03,730 --> 00:08:04,230
Exactly.

243
00:08:04,490 --> 00:08:05,230
That's what I said.

244
00:08:05,310 --> 00:08:05,910
Now we know.

245
00:08:06,370 --> 00:08:07,630
By the way, I don't think I've ever

246
00:08:07,630 --> 00:08:09,330
said Epstein wasn't Mossad.

247
00:08:09,450 --> 00:08:09,810
He's clear.

248
00:08:09,930 --> 00:08:13,350
We know that that he's intelligence because he

249
00:08:13,350 --> 00:08:14,690
could be he could be multiple.

250
00:08:15,090 --> 00:08:17,570
You know, there are people out there that

251
00:08:17,570 --> 00:08:19,650
are working for more than one agency.

252
00:08:20,010 --> 00:08:20,110
Yes.

253
00:08:20,250 --> 00:08:21,850
And my six is the is the first

254
00:08:21,850 --> 00:08:22,790
one I'd be looking at.

255
00:08:23,710 --> 00:08:28,110
Before me to before Mossad, the BBC did

256
00:08:28,110 --> 00:08:31,289
do their their little quick brisk comb.

257
00:08:31,730 --> 00:08:34,450
I do have some Epstein stuff because I

258
00:08:34,450 --> 00:08:36,110
have some Epstein stuff, too, but my stuff

259
00:08:36,110 --> 00:08:37,370
is labeled Repstein.

260
00:08:37,370 --> 00:08:39,049
OK, sorry.

261
00:08:39,470 --> 00:08:41,150
Which from now on, it will be Repstein

262
00:08:41,150 --> 00:08:43,910
as we speak of the Repstein, the disgraced

263
00:08:44,930 --> 00:08:45,810
financier pedophile.

264
00:08:46,070 --> 00:08:47,750
Notice everyone calls him can now call him

265
00:08:47,750 --> 00:08:49,010
a pedophile because he's dead.

266
00:08:49,750 --> 00:08:51,210
I don't think you do that if it

267
00:08:51,210 --> 00:08:52,190
hasn't been proven yet.

268
00:08:53,130 --> 00:08:53,690
If he was alive.

269
00:08:54,030 --> 00:08:56,210
No, when somebody's dead, this people should know

270
00:08:56,210 --> 00:08:56,790
this legally.

271
00:08:56,990 --> 00:08:57,190
Yeah.

272
00:08:58,250 --> 00:09:00,090
You can start calling him stuff.

273
00:09:00,510 --> 00:09:03,990
I think really the guy is a rapist.

274
00:09:04,870 --> 00:09:05,430
Great.

275
00:09:06,050 --> 00:09:08,950
Let's let's run through some BBC quickies here

276
00:09:08,950 --> 00:09:09,530
for a second.

277
00:09:09,850 --> 00:09:12,070
The new pictures show the then Prince Andrew

278
00:09:12,070 --> 00:09:14,510
on the floor kneeling over a female whose

279
00:09:14,510 --> 00:09:15,870
identity has been hidden.

280
00:09:16,550 --> 00:09:17,470
She's fully dressed.

281
00:09:17,630 --> 00:09:19,630
He's in jeans and a white polo shirt,

282
00:09:19,690 --> 00:09:21,130
but without shoes and socks.

283
00:09:21,250 --> 00:09:23,830
And he see his hands on her stomach.

284
00:09:23,970 --> 00:09:25,290
I love the description.

285
00:09:25,290 --> 00:09:27,070
I love the British.

286
00:09:27,250 --> 00:09:28,690
I'm going to describe this.

287
00:09:28,830 --> 00:09:31,590
Everyone has a phone, but OK, I'm going

288
00:09:31,590 --> 00:09:34,070
to describe the picture for you in the

289
00:09:34,070 --> 00:09:34,450
background.

290
00:09:34,910 --> 00:09:37,090
Someone else is lounging with their feet on

291
00:09:37,090 --> 00:09:39,430
a table next to a couple of folded

292
00:09:39,430 --> 00:09:40,070
towels.

293
00:09:41,090 --> 00:09:44,390
The files provide no date or location for

294
00:09:44,390 --> 00:09:47,170
the images, but they're among horrendous photo.

295
00:09:47,370 --> 00:09:49,630
Was that what did they make a bit?

296
00:09:49,830 --> 00:09:52,450
This is like a like a boring, you

297
00:09:52,450 --> 00:09:55,250
know, I have like taken probably a billion

298
00:09:55,250 --> 00:09:56,090
photographs.

299
00:09:57,010 --> 00:09:57,350
A billion.

300
00:09:57,510 --> 00:09:58,190
Wait a minute.

301
00:09:58,310 --> 00:10:01,230
A billion, a thousand million photographs.

302
00:10:01,590 --> 00:10:03,330
OK, let's back it off.

303
00:10:03,430 --> 00:10:06,550
OK, but I've taken a lot terabytes worth.

304
00:10:06,750 --> 00:10:06,990
Yes.

305
00:10:07,130 --> 00:10:10,130
And so you just go grab and most

306
00:10:10,130 --> 00:10:11,390
of them are junk and I should have

307
00:10:11,390 --> 00:10:12,630
never kept half of them.

308
00:10:12,750 --> 00:10:14,190
Yeah, it's all incriminating evidence.

309
00:10:14,330 --> 00:10:17,050
Take one brand photo or, you know, the

310
00:10:17,050 --> 00:10:19,930
camera went off by accident and then you

311
00:10:19,930 --> 00:10:20,570
describe it.

312
00:10:20,650 --> 00:10:22,630
These are not important pictures.

313
00:10:23,010 --> 00:10:24,650
When you're dead, man, they're going to find

314
00:10:24,650 --> 00:10:25,910
that and then they're going to call you

315
00:10:25,910 --> 00:10:27,330
all kinds of horrible things.

316
00:10:27,510 --> 00:10:28,530
Look at this picture.

317
00:10:29,070 --> 00:10:29,310
Look at that.

318
00:10:29,310 --> 00:10:30,530
By the way, I should have a disclaimer

319
00:10:30,530 --> 00:10:32,470
on that thing about calling people things after

320
00:10:32,470 --> 00:10:33,050
they're dead.

321
00:10:33,390 --> 00:10:35,870
If there's an estate involved that is still

322
00:10:35,870 --> 00:10:37,730
making money on the person, they could they

323
00:10:37,730 --> 00:10:38,390
can sue you.

324
00:10:38,730 --> 00:10:39,610
They can sue you.

325
00:10:39,810 --> 00:10:40,870
OK, so be careful.

326
00:10:41,190 --> 00:10:43,930
Files provide no date or location for the

327
00:10:43,930 --> 00:10:46,470
images, but they're among a number of documents

328
00:10:46,470 --> 00:10:48,650
in this latest release that raise even more

329
00:10:48,650 --> 00:10:50,750
questions about the judgment of the man who

330
00:10:50,750 --> 00:10:52,630
remains eighth in line to the throne.

331
00:10:53,270 --> 00:10:54,570
Wait a minute.

332
00:10:55,310 --> 00:10:56,710
That's not true, is it?

333
00:10:57,570 --> 00:11:00,310
If he's been stripped of his title and

334
00:11:00,310 --> 00:11:01,890
his name, he had to go back to

335
00:11:01,890 --> 00:11:02,630
Mountbatten.

336
00:11:03,190 --> 00:11:05,270
Is he still eighth in line to the

337
00:11:05,270 --> 00:11:05,530
throne?

338
00:11:06,550 --> 00:11:07,170
I don't know.

339
00:11:07,310 --> 00:11:09,110
Yeah, I don't know how that peerage works

340
00:11:09,110 --> 00:11:10,390
when it comes to that.

341
00:11:10,390 --> 00:11:11,710
Hey, at the No Agenda Show...

342
00:11:11,710 --> 00:11:13,670
Do we have a peerage expert besides me?

343
00:11:14,410 --> 00:11:17,610
The No Agenda Show, your kids are all

344
00:11:17,610 --> 00:11:18,990
eligible to take over your title.

345
00:11:19,210 --> 00:11:20,770
I'll just claim that right now.

346
00:11:20,870 --> 00:11:21,250
It's OK.

347
00:11:22,570 --> 00:11:25,130
You can you can you can be an

348
00:11:25,130 --> 00:11:25,990
heir to the title.

349
00:11:26,850 --> 00:11:28,010
It has to be a meeting.

350
00:11:28,730 --> 00:11:32,730
An email sent by Jeffrey Epstein in 2010,

351
00:11:32,950 --> 00:11:35,030
two years after he had been convicted of

352
00:11:35,030 --> 00:11:38,270
solicitation of prostitution with a minor and apparently

353
00:11:38,270 --> 00:11:41,390
written to Andrew, suggests that he meets a

354
00:11:41,390 --> 00:11:43,950
26-year-old Russian woman in London for

355
00:11:43,950 --> 00:11:44,210
dinner.

356
00:11:44,530 --> 00:11:47,750
The reply, by someone signing himself H.R

357
00:11:47,750 --> 00:11:50,470
.H. the Duke of York, KG, says he'd

358
00:11:50,470 --> 00:11:51,110
be delighted.

359
00:11:51,910 --> 00:11:55,530
Epstein then writes back, she's clever, beautiful and

360
00:11:55,530 --> 00:11:56,170
has your email.

361
00:11:56,910 --> 00:11:59,610
In another revelation, the document suggests that later

362
00:11:59,610 --> 00:12:00,690
that same year...

363
00:12:00,690 --> 00:12:03,610
By the way, when I was a single

364
00:12:03,610 --> 00:12:06,150
man, where were those emails for me?

365
00:12:06,230 --> 00:12:08,670
She's clever, she's beautiful, she's Russian and she's

366
00:12:08,670 --> 00:12:09,490
got your email.

367
00:12:10,210 --> 00:12:11,490
Nope, never happened.

368
00:12:12,070 --> 00:12:13,830
By the way...

369
00:12:13,830 --> 00:12:17,010
You said, by the way.

370
00:12:17,050 --> 00:12:17,550
Oh, I did.

371
00:12:17,630 --> 00:12:18,530
I caught myself too.

372
00:12:18,910 --> 00:12:19,390
Not really.

373
00:12:19,450 --> 00:12:19,990
I heard it.

374
00:12:20,050 --> 00:12:20,490
Oh, OK.

375
00:12:21,050 --> 00:12:23,050
So, I'm on my way to recovery.

376
00:12:23,290 --> 00:12:23,850
By the by.

377
00:12:24,750 --> 00:12:26,290
So, that's no good either.

378
00:12:26,930 --> 00:12:29,850
And so, with all we know about Epstein

379
00:12:29,850 --> 00:12:33,590
and the underage girls from all over, you

380
00:12:33,590 --> 00:12:35,890
know, little blondes and brunettes, all the girls

381
00:12:35,890 --> 00:12:38,030
from the USA and, you know, from Mar

382
00:12:38,030 --> 00:12:40,270
-a-Lago and every place else, who were

383
00:12:40,270 --> 00:12:43,330
bringing in Russian spook girls, you know, honeypots.

384
00:12:43,690 --> 00:12:44,670
How does that...

385
00:12:44,670 --> 00:12:46,990
What changed?

386
00:12:48,710 --> 00:12:51,410
Well, remember, this is British royalty.

387
00:12:52,070 --> 00:12:52,850
There's nothing...

388
00:12:52,850 --> 00:12:54,590
You know, just go watch The Crown.

389
00:12:54,730 --> 00:12:56,450
You'll know that it's good to have something

390
00:12:56,450 --> 00:12:57,370
on British royalty.

391
00:12:57,590 --> 00:12:59,510
Then you can get all kinds of stuff.

392
00:13:00,070 --> 00:13:02,170
So, it would make total sense that Epstein

393
00:13:02,170 --> 00:13:04,570
sent in some honeypot.

394
00:13:04,810 --> 00:13:04,930
Prose.

395
00:13:05,110 --> 00:13:05,790
Yeah, prose.

396
00:13:06,250 --> 00:13:06,350
Exactly.

397
00:13:06,490 --> 00:13:08,790
Andrew invited Epstein to Buckingham Palace.

398
00:13:08,910 --> 00:13:10,670
And then you get an invite to Buckingham

399
00:13:10,670 --> 00:13:11,050
Palace.

400
00:13:11,450 --> 00:13:14,570
The former prince has strenuously denied all wrongdoing.

401
00:13:15,410 --> 00:13:18,270
But while his reputation arguably couldn't suffer any

402
00:13:18,270 --> 00:13:21,510
more damage, the files show Jeffrey Epstein kept

403
00:13:21,510 --> 00:13:23,970
striving to save his own, sending an email

404
00:13:23,970 --> 00:13:26,610
to his publicist suggesting they ask the former

405
00:13:26,610 --> 00:13:29,230
Duchess of York, Sarah Ferguson, to release a

406
00:13:29,230 --> 00:13:31,990
statement saying she had been duped into believing

407
00:13:31,990 --> 00:13:33,670
false allegations about him.

408
00:13:33,970 --> 00:13:37,130
Well, let's hear the BBC about Sarah Ferguson.

409
00:13:37,530 --> 00:13:39,510
Also in the tranche of documents are emails

410
00:13:39,510 --> 00:13:43,390
suggesting Epstein supported Sarah Ferguson financially over a

411
00:13:43,390 --> 00:13:44,630
period of 15 years.

412
00:13:45,010 --> 00:13:48,390
An exchange in 2009 shows Miss Ferguson saying

413
00:13:48,390 --> 00:13:51,090
she urgently needed £20,000 for rent.

414
00:13:51,550 --> 00:13:53,250
The former Duchess of York has been approached

415
00:13:53,250 --> 00:13:53,790
for comment.

416
00:13:54,450 --> 00:13:56,170
She's been approached for comment.

417
00:13:57,450 --> 00:13:58,950
That's a good way to say it, you

418
00:13:58,950 --> 00:13:59,330
Brits.

419
00:14:00,130 --> 00:14:02,650
Man, this, this is great.

420
00:14:03,530 --> 00:14:04,870
You got buddies like Epstein.

421
00:14:05,010 --> 00:14:05,850
Like, I pay my rent.

422
00:14:06,250 --> 00:14:07,630
Okay, no problem, Fergie.

423
00:14:07,670 --> 00:14:08,370
I'll take care of you.

424
00:14:08,590 --> 00:14:09,810
And then there's Richard Branson.

425
00:14:10,090 --> 00:14:12,790
In an email exchange in 2013, Epstein thanks

426
00:14:12,790 --> 00:14:16,430
Richard Branson for recent hospitality and for his

427
00:14:16,430 --> 00:14:18,690
public relations advice on how to deal with

428
00:14:18,690 --> 00:14:21,730
claims against him regarding his conviction for sex

429
00:14:21,730 --> 00:14:22,730
with an underage girl.

430
00:14:22,930 --> 00:14:25,450
I love how the, the, the high and

431
00:14:25,450 --> 00:14:27,090
mighty, the rich and famous are all like,

432
00:14:27,130 --> 00:14:28,490
I got some advice on how you can

433
00:14:28,490 --> 00:14:29,230
deal with this.

434
00:14:29,950 --> 00:14:33,350
Why would Richard, and Richard Branson doesn't come

435
00:14:33,350 --> 00:14:35,290
across to me as some creepy guy.

436
00:14:37,010 --> 00:14:38,730
No, just doesn't.

437
00:14:38,810 --> 00:14:40,110
He's, I don't know.

438
00:14:40,410 --> 00:14:42,550
A friend of mine who knows him says

439
00:14:42,550 --> 00:14:45,530
that he, he's actually financed either by Bahrain

440
00:14:45,530 --> 00:14:45,970
or Qatar.

441
00:14:46,090 --> 00:14:46,770
He's a front man.

442
00:14:46,770 --> 00:14:47,510
Oh yeah.

443
00:14:47,970 --> 00:14:50,370
The airlines, he didn't, he didn't finance them.

444
00:14:50,490 --> 00:14:51,890
He got all, yes, he is a front

445
00:14:51,890 --> 00:14:52,130
man.

446
00:14:52,710 --> 00:14:53,430
He is.

447
00:14:53,690 --> 00:14:53,870
Anyway.

448
00:14:54,230 --> 00:14:56,630
So Richard appears to reply anytime you're in

449
00:14:56,630 --> 00:14:58,690
the area, would love to see you as

450
00:14:58,690 --> 00:15:00,470
long as you bring your Harim.

451
00:15:00,950 --> 00:15:02,550
Virgin group clarified that.

452
00:15:02,570 --> 00:15:02,670
Is what?

453
00:15:02,870 --> 00:15:03,570
Is Harim?

454
00:15:04,470 --> 00:15:05,830
Yes, the Harim.

455
00:15:06,450 --> 00:15:07,630
As in harem?

456
00:15:08,870 --> 00:15:10,150
But it's Harim.

457
00:15:10,390 --> 00:15:10,870
Harim.

458
00:15:11,070 --> 00:15:12,450
As you bring your Harim.

459
00:15:12,450 --> 00:15:15,190
Virgin group clarified that was a reference to

460
00:15:15,190 --> 00:15:17,990
three adult members of Epstein's team and stated

461
00:15:17,990 --> 00:15:19,530
that Sir Richard would not have used the

462
00:15:19,530 --> 00:15:21,810
term or had contact if he'd known the

463
00:15:21,810 --> 00:15:22,630
full facts.

464
00:15:23,150 --> 00:15:25,690
A spokesperson added that Sir Richard's contacts with

465
00:15:25,690 --> 00:15:27,750
Epstein were limited to a few group or

466
00:15:27,750 --> 00:15:30,470
business settings, such as a charity tennis event

467
00:15:30,470 --> 00:15:32,130
more than 12 years ago.

468
00:15:32,850 --> 00:15:33,690
In an email exchange.

469
00:15:33,690 --> 00:15:34,150
Sorry.

470
00:15:34,550 --> 00:15:36,170
And then the final one is of course,

471
00:15:36,250 --> 00:15:36,990
Elon Musk.

472
00:15:36,990 --> 00:15:40,630
Elon Musk, the world's richest man, exchanged emails

473
00:15:40,630 --> 00:15:43,310
with Epstein on two separate occasions in 2012

474
00:15:43,310 --> 00:15:46,370
and 2013 to make arrangements to visit his

475
00:15:46,370 --> 00:15:46,710
island.

476
00:15:47,210 --> 00:15:50,270
Probably just Tallulah and me, Mr. Musk appears

477
00:15:50,270 --> 00:15:52,330
to write in reference to his ex-wife,

478
00:15:52,430 --> 00:15:52,950
the British actress.

479
00:15:52,970 --> 00:15:55,290
What does this mean, Mr. Musk appears to

480
00:15:55,290 --> 00:15:55,590
write?

481
00:15:56,230 --> 00:15:57,350
Did he, did he write it?

482
00:15:57,410 --> 00:15:58,310
Did he not write it?

483
00:15:58,390 --> 00:15:58,930
Are they unsure?

484
00:15:59,390 --> 00:16:00,470
I thought it was his secretary that wrote

485
00:16:00,470 --> 00:16:00,650
it.

486
00:16:00,890 --> 00:16:02,390
One of his aides.

487
00:16:02,390 --> 00:16:04,790
It's interesting that they use this.

488
00:16:04,850 --> 00:16:06,090
He appears to write that.

489
00:16:06,250 --> 00:16:07,950
Is that a hedge against?

490
00:16:08,470 --> 00:16:09,990
I guess it's a hedge against something.

491
00:16:10,390 --> 00:16:10,490
Yeah.

492
00:16:10,750 --> 00:16:13,610
Probably just Tallulah and me, Mr. Musk appears

493
00:16:13,610 --> 00:16:15,690
to write in reference to his ex-wife,

494
00:16:15,790 --> 00:16:17,510
the British actress Tallulah Riley.

495
00:16:18,170 --> 00:16:20,170
What day or night will be the wildest

496
00:16:20,170 --> 00:16:21,310
party on your island?

497
00:16:21,390 --> 00:16:21,830
He asks.

498
00:16:22,390 --> 00:16:24,770
Epstein replies the race show on my island

499
00:16:24,770 --> 00:16:28,450
might make Tallulah uncomfortable before Mr. Musk responds

500
00:16:28,450 --> 00:16:31,350
that ratio is not a problem for Tallulah.

501
00:16:31,370 --> 00:16:34,870
It appears Mr. Musk didn't Tallulah party, party

502
00:16:34,870 --> 00:16:35,710
girl Tallulah.

503
00:16:36,110 --> 00:16:37,270
She likes to party.

504
00:16:37,790 --> 00:16:40,950
It appears Mr. Musk didn't visit either occasion

505
00:16:40,950 --> 00:16:42,830
because of what he referred to in an

506
00:16:42,830 --> 00:16:45,730
email as logistical issues on X.

507
00:16:45,830 --> 00:16:48,150
Mr. Musk posted that he had very little

508
00:16:48,150 --> 00:16:51,770
correspondence with Epstein and declined repeated invitations to

509
00:16:51,770 --> 00:16:53,810
go to his island or fly on what

510
00:16:53,810 --> 00:16:56,010
he called his Lolita Express.

511
00:16:56,910 --> 00:16:58,430
Yeah, but that wasn't in the email.

512
00:16:58,550 --> 00:16:59,730
They just throw that in there.

513
00:16:59,870 --> 00:17:00,970
It's very interesting.

514
00:17:00,990 --> 00:17:02,710
That's poor reporting, but they did that.

515
00:17:03,030 --> 00:17:03,190
Yeah.

516
00:17:03,250 --> 00:17:03,510
Oh, yeah.

517
00:17:03,670 --> 00:17:05,770
Now, Musk did not say I can't wait

518
00:17:05,770 --> 00:17:08,190
to fly on the Lolita Express, nor did

519
00:17:08,190 --> 00:17:09,890
as far as I know from whatever I

520
00:17:09,890 --> 00:17:10,130
saw.

521
00:17:10,690 --> 00:17:11,270
It's impossible.

522
00:17:11,829 --> 00:17:12,530
It's too much.

523
00:17:12,690 --> 00:17:14,390
Did someone throw it in AI already so

524
00:17:14,390 --> 00:17:15,910
we can just know what's supposed to come

525
00:17:15,910 --> 00:17:16,069
out?

526
00:17:16,069 --> 00:17:17,270
Well, now it's getting, yeah.

527
00:17:17,810 --> 00:17:19,569
Well, Musk, of course, is looking for more

528
00:17:19,569 --> 00:17:20,130
moms.

529
00:17:21,690 --> 00:17:23,950
I need more birthing persons.

530
00:17:24,410 --> 00:17:27,710
So this morning on the Sunday morning shows,

531
00:17:27,750 --> 00:17:29,250
we had a lot of people show up

532
00:17:29,250 --> 00:17:31,930
talking about this, talking about all the important

533
00:17:31,930 --> 00:17:32,810
things in the world.

534
00:17:33,170 --> 00:17:36,750
And the one I found most interesting was

535
00:17:36,750 --> 00:17:37,450
Rohana.

536
00:17:38,310 --> 00:17:40,050
That's what I call him, Ro Khanna.

537
00:17:41,450 --> 00:17:44,030
Wasn't he the guy that said, I'm going

538
00:17:44,030 --> 00:17:45,750
to tax all the rich Californians?

539
00:17:45,790 --> 00:17:47,910
And then they got all mad at him,

540
00:17:47,910 --> 00:17:49,670
and then he started talking about other stuff.

541
00:17:50,170 --> 00:17:51,770
Well, he's one of the male members of

542
00:17:51,770 --> 00:17:54,150
the squad, and people keep forgetting that.

543
00:17:54,290 --> 00:17:54,670
Really?

544
00:17:54,850 --> 00:17:57,010
He's actually a Democrat socialist for all practical

545
00:17:57,010 --> 00:17:57,590
purposes.

546
00:17:58,270 --> 00:17:59,770
Oh, I didn't realize he was a member

547
00:17:59,770 --> 00:18:00,550
of the squad.

548
00:18:00,710 --> 00:18:03,510
Yeah, original OG, OG squad member.

549
00:18:03,710 --> 00:18:04,090
Okay.

550
00:18:04,270 --> 00:18:04,570
OG.

551
00:18:04,910 --> 00:18:05,310
Here we go.

552
00:18:05,470 --> 00:18:06,610
Congressman Khanna, welcome back.

553
00:18:06,610 --> 00:18:07,970
This is Manhans Welker.

554
00:18:08,150 --> 00:18:10,370
Congressman Khanna, welcome back to Meet the Press.

555
00:18:11,250 --> 00:18:12,350
Oh, it's great to be here.

556
00:18:12,390 --> 00:18:13,190
Good morning, Kristen.

557
00:18:13,710 --> 00:18:15,170
Thank you so much for being here.

558
00:18:15,270 --> 00:18:16,710
I do want to dive right in.

559
00:18:17,110 --> 00:18:17,390
Dive right in.

560
00:18:17,470 --> 00:18:18,650
What is she, AI now?

561
00:18:19,070 --> 00:18:19,630
She's diving.

562
00:18:19,770 --> 00:18:21,050
Let's dive right in.

563
00:18:21,270 --> 00:18:22,490
Thank you so much for being here.

564
00:18:22,570 --> 00:18:24,350
I do want to dive right in and

565
00:18:24,350 --> 00:18:26,930
start with this trove of Epstein files that

566
00:18:26,930 --> 00:18:27,530
were released.

567
00:18:27,950 --> 00:18:30,870
Of course, you and Congressman Massey were behind

568
00:18:30,870 --> 00:18:33,430
the push to have these files released.

569
00:18:33,570 --> 00:18:37,190
The DOJ says it's withholding large portions to

570
00:18:37,190 --> 00:18:39,790
protect survivors, to protect security.

571
00:18:40,650 --> 00:18:43,690
Has the Justice Department fully complied with the

572
00:18:43,690 --> 00:18:44,390
law, Congressman?

573
00:18:45,290 --> 00:18:46,190
No, they haven't.

574
00:18:46,330 --> 00:18:49,790
They've released, at best, half the documents, but

575
00:18:49,790 --> 00:18:53,610
even those shocked the conscience of this country.

576
00:18:54,070 --> 00:18:55,070
I mean, you have some of- How

577
00:18:55,070 --> 00:18:55,550
are you feeling?

578
00:18:57,470 --> 00:18:58,330
How's your conscience?

579
00:18:59,530 --> 00:19:00,090
Shocked.

580
00:19:00,110 --> 00:19:00,550
Shocked.

581
00:19:00,770 --> 00:19:03,050
Shocked the conscience of this country.

582
00:19:03,050 --> 00:19:05,370
I mean, you have some of the most

583
00:19:05,370 --> 00:19:11,450
wealthy individuals, tech leaders, finance leaders, politicians, all

584
00:19:11,450 --> 00:19:15,870
implicated in some way, having emails about wanting

585
00:19:15,870 --> 00:19:19,550
to go to Epstein's island, knowing that Epstein

586
00:19:19,550 --> 00:19:20,510
was a pedophile.

587
00:19:20,970 --> 00:19:22,750
It's frankly one of the largest- Okay,

588
00:19:22,750 --> 00:19:23,670
let's hold on a second.

589
00:19:23,810 --> 00:19:24,170
I know.

590
00:19:24,350 --> 00:19:26,210
I thought you'd want to jump in here.

591
00:19:26,210 --> 00:19:27,030
Yeah.

592
00:19:27,370 --> 00:19:29,510
So they didn't know anything.

593
00:19:30,010 --> 00:19:31,690
All they knew is that the guy threw

594
00:19:31,690 --> 00:19:34,570
these tremendous parties, or they were rumored to

595
00:19:34,570 --> 00:19:36,070
be, I guess, because I never heard of

596
00:19:36,070 --> 00:19:36,170
him.

597
00:19:36,170 --> 00:19:37,010
Well, hold on.

598
00:19:37,150 --> 00:19:41,770
After his initial indictment and easy jail sentence,

599
00:19:41,930 --> 00:19:42,630
they should have known.

600
00:19:42,630 --> 00:19:43,870
It was a thing in Florida, but who

601
00:19:43,870 --> 00:19:45,030
paid attention to that?

602
00:19:45,150 --> 00:19:45,810
That's my point.

603
00:19:45,850 --> 00:19:47,730
I mean, it's always assumed that everyone's keeping

604
00:19:47,730 --> 00:19:48,390
up with everyone.

605
00:19:48,510 --> 00:19:50,490
They're doing due diligence on every person they

606
00:19:50,490 --> 00:19:51,450
meet or talk to.

607
00:19:51,450 --> 00:19:54,270
What it shows, what it shows, and you

608
00:19:54,270 --> 00:19:56,290
and I have both witnessed this with very

609
00:19:56,290 --> 00:19:58,250
rich people, mainly rich people.

610
00:19:58,650 --> 00:20:01,030
You get really rich people, they have all

611
00:20:01,030 --> 00:20:02,510
kinds of hangers on.

612
00:20:02,730 --> 00:20:05,530
And the number one group is always politicians.

613
00:20:05,870 --> 00:20:06,150
Always.

614
00:20:06,810 --> 00:20:07,550
You've seen it.

615
00:20:07,870 --> 00:20:08,810
I've seen it.

616
00:20:09,630 --> 00:20:11,790
See Al Gore over there, Kleiner Perkins.

617
00:20:12,070 --> 00:20:12,630
Exactly.

618
00:20:13,290 --> 00:20:15,970
Wherever there's really rich people, there's politicians.

619
00:20:16,510 --> 00:20:19,350
And they do all kinds of cool, wacky

620
00:20:19,350 --> 00:20:19,690
stuff.

621
00:20:19,710 --> 00:20:23,070
Because people who are very, very wealthy, they

622
00:20:23,070 --> 00:20:24,230
have no limits.

623
00:20:24,370 --> 00:20:25,810
They're like, I can do whatever I want.

624
00:20:26,050 --> 00:20:26,670
I'm rich.

625
00:20:27,170 --> 00:20:30,810
And to a large degree, that's probably true

626
00:20:30,810 --> 00:20:33,150
within the bounds of the law.

627
00:20:33,250 --> 00:20:34,870
And of course, many of them slip over

628
00:20:34,870 --> 00:20:35,190
that.

629
00:20:35,870 --> 00:20:37,170
But that is life.

630
00:20:37,230 --> 00:20:38,930
And I think that that is the most

631
00:20:38,930 --> 00:20:40,090
interesting thing.

632
00:20:40,630 --> 00:20:43,090
Whereas everyone's talking about pedophiles, pedophiles.

633
00:20:43,730 --> 00:20:46,670
Yes, technically, you have sex with someone who's

634
00:20:46,670 --> 00:20:47,250
underage.

635
00:20:47,370 --> 00:20:47,950
You're a pedophile.

636
00:20:48,070 --> 00:20:50,470
And I think Jeffrey Epstein seems to be

637
00:20:50,470 --> 00:20:51,130
a pedophile.

638
00:20:52,150 --> 00:20:55,290
But the thing that's interesting is this is

639
00:20:55,290 --> 00:20:57,970
the true Robin Leach lifestyles of the rich

640
00:20:57,970 --> 00:20:58,450
and famous.

641
00:20:58,570 --> 00:21:00,070
This is how it really goes down.

642
00:21:00,090 --> 00:21:01,170
Why am I shouting?

643
00:21:02,270 --> 00:21:04,410
Champagne wishes and caviar dreams.

644
00:21:05,530 --> 00:21:07,730
This is the true lifestyles of the rich

645
00:21:07,730 --> 00:21:08,170
and famous.

646
00:21:08,330 --> 00:21:11,150
You're seeing how it really works.

647
00:21:11,150 --> 00:21:12,650
And it didn't end with Epstein.

648
00:21:13,250 --> 00:21:14,990
This is with anybody who's rich.

649
00:21:15,110 --> 00:21:18,550
You always have crazy parties, lots of celebrities,

650
00:21:18,910 --> 00:21:22,170
politicians, drinks, drugs, everything.

651
00:21:22,470 --> 00:21:25,150
That is the life that I think people

652
00:21:25,150 --> 00:21:26,050
are now seeing.

653
00:21:26,490 --> 00:21:27,970
I hope that that's what they're looking at,

654
00:21:27,990 --> 00:21:29,590
because you're not going to find much else.

655
00:21:29,710 --> 00:21:30,270
Trust me.

656
00:21:30,510 --> 00:21:33,990
Oh, to Epstein's Island, knowing that Epstein was

657
00:21:33,990 --> 00:21:34,690
a pedophile.

658
00:21:35,010 --> 00:21:37,390
It's frankly one of the largest scandals, in

659
00:21:37,390 --> 00:21:38,830
my view, in our country's history.

660
00:21:39,290 --> 00:21:41,030
And there is a demand for accountability.

661
00:21:41,830 --> 00:21:43,770
But the survivors, lawyers that I've talked to

662
00:21:43,770 --> 00:21:45,930
have said that the survivors are still upset.

663
00:21:46,310 --> 00:21:48,830
They're upset that many of their names accidentally

664
00:21:48,830 --> 00:21:51,630
came out without redactions.

665
00:21:51,910 --> 00:21:53,950
And they want to make sure the rest

666
00:21:53,950 --> 00:21:55,010
of the files come out.

667
00:21:55,570 --> 00:21:55,670
Yeah.

668
00:21:55,790 --> 00:21:57,010
Rest of the files come out.

669
00:21:57,110 --> 00:21:57,350
OK.

670
00:21:59,550 --> 00:22:01,870
This is this is kind of this interesting

671
00:22:01,870 --> 00:22:02,250
thing.

672
00:22:02,330 --> 00:22:04,670
What is a survivor in this instance?

673
00:22:07,010 --> 00:22:09,110
They keep talking about these survivors.

674
00:22:09,810 --> 00:22:11,130
Well, that's what they get.

675
00:22:11,210 --> 00:22:14,710
Did they escape a shipwreck or were they

676
00:22:14,710 --> 00:22:18,570
were they are they mentally incapable of continuing

677
00:22:18,570 --> 00:22:19,670
a normal life?

678
00:22:19,750 --> 00:22:20,330
I mean, what are they?

679
00:22:20,590 --> 00:22:21,010
Who are these?

680
00:22:21,250 --> 00:22:22,970
I mean, it depends.

681
00:22:23,010 --> 00:22:24,010
I don't want to be callous.

682
00:22:24,070 --> 00:22:25,470
No, no, it depends.

683
00:22:26,710 --> 00:22:30,170
A survivor would be someone who was groomed,

684
00:22:30,190 --> 00:22:33,290
underage and sexually abused.

685
00:22:33,370 --> 00:22:35,470
I would consider that to be an absolute

686
00:22:35,470 --> 00:22:36,070
survivor.

687
00:22:37,270 --> 00:22:41,430
People who are of age, who fell into

688
00:22:41,430 --> 00:22:43,870
the partying and the fun and all of

689
00:22:43,870 --> 00:22:45,990
that and got into stuff that they regret.

690
00:22:47,710 --> 00:22:50,390
I'm not survivors to survivors of.

691
00:22:51,530 --> 00:22:57,510
Of regrets, regrets, regrets, regrets, survivors of stupid

692
00:22:57,510 --> 00:22:58,570
decision making.

693
00:22:58,670 --> 00:23:00,310
I mean, early in their life, I'm a

694
00:23:00,310 --> 00:23:02,630
survivor of 18 years of working with you

695
00:23:02,630 --> 00:23:03,530
and vice versa.

696
00:23:03,530 --> 00:23:04,750
There you have it.

697
00:23:05,130 --> 00:23:06,930
You're talking about some of those big names

698
00:23:06,930 --> 00:23:08,530
being implicated.

699
00:23:08,890 --> 00:23:11,430
Are you suggesting that there should be more

700
00:23:11,430 --> 00:23:12,170
charges filed?

701
00:23:12,250 --> 00:23:14,330
Because at this point in time, no new

702
00:23:14,330 --> 00:23:16,590
charges have been filed against anyone.

703
00:23:17,530 --> 00:23:18,730
Charges for what?

704
00:23:18,950 --> 00:23:21,750
I do think the prosecution needs to look

705
00:23:21,750 --> 00:23:23,290
at seriously bringing charges.

706
00:23:23,450 --> 00:23:25,410
But there are two different issues here, Christian.

707
00:23:25,530 --> 00:23:27,830
There's some people who committed crimes and that

708
00:23:27,830 --> 00:23:29,030
needs to be looked at.

709
00:23:29,030 --> 00:23:30,370
We need to understand who.

710
00:23:30,610 --> 00:23:32,850
That's the thing is, I think he's treading

711
00:23:32,850 --> 00:23:35,410
water here because there just aren't any crimes

712
00:23:35,410 --> 00:23:36,770
in any of these documents.

713
00:23:37,510 --> 00:23:38,550
That's the point.

714
00:23:38,970 --> 00:23:40,290
There's no crimes in the documents.

715
00:23:40,490 --> 00:23:43,350
But in the case of that, we don't.

716
00:23:44,110 --> 00:23:45,010
I mean, it's.

717
00:23:45,950 --> 00:23:48,210
There were probably some underage.

718
00:23:48,490 --> 00:23:52,430
OK, there were some probably underage sex taking

719
00:23:52,430 --> 00:23:53,030
place.

720
00:23:53,110 --> 00:23:54,870
I have to guess this is true because

721
00:23:54,870 --> 00:23:57,630
it just seems to be Epstein for sure.

722
00:23:57,930 --> 00:24:01,450
And himself on a foreign island that has,

723
00:24:01,630 --> 00:24:02,890
you know, under the jurisdiction.

724
00:24:03,150 --> 00:24:03,850
Well, hold on.

725
00:24:03,910 --> 00:24:05,390
Isn't it the U.S. Virgin Islands?

726
00:24:06,090 --> 00:24:06,390
Yeah.

727
00:24:06,450 --> 00:24:07,350
But what's the laws?

728
00:24:07,430 --> 00:24:08,710
What is the Asia consent?

729
00:24:09,570 --> 00:24:11,210
Well, the whole reason for that island was

730
00:24:11,210 --> 00:24:12,230
for the money laundering.

731
00:24:12,230 --> 00:24:14,090
As far as I'm concerned, it just happened

732
00:24:14,090 --> 00:24:15,010
to be a great party.

733
00:24:15,450 --> 00:24:15,910
The whole thing is.

734
00:24:16,050 --> 00:24:19,590
But you know, these crimes, they're not you.

735
00:24:19,910 --> 00:24:22,050
Who's going to who's going to prosecute?

736
00:24:22,150 --> 00:24:22,810
Did you have it?

737
00:24:22,910 --> 00:24:25,490
OK, so somebody did something on the Virgin

738
00:24:25,490 --> 00:24:26,030
Island.

739
00:24:27,590 --> 00:24:29,130
Who's going to prosecute it?

740
00:24:29,210 --> 00:24:30,690
Where is it going to be prosecuted?

741
00:24:31,130 --> 00:24:33,910
How under what circumstances would they be arrested?

742
00:24:34,510 --> 00:24:37,930
I mean, it's just something that is at

743
00:24:37,930 --> 00:24:39,290
this point is beyond.

744
00:24:39,770 --> 00:24:41,010
It's just too late.

745
00:24:41,390 --> 00:24:42,830
But this is not about Epstein.

746
00:24:43,030 --> 00:24:44,070
This is about Trump.

747
00:24:44,890 --> 00:24:45,510
Yeah, you're right.

748
00:24:45,710 --> 00:24:47,750
What am I thinking about Epstein?

749
00:24:47,990 --> 00:24:48,810
What am I doing?

750
00:24:48,950 --> 00:24:51,470
I'm trying to make a logical conclusion that

751
00:24:51,470 --> 00:24:53,090
has nothing to do with any of it.

752
00:24:53,190 --> 00:24:55,270
So Jeffrey Epstein, those names haven't come out.

753
00:24:55,510 --> 00:24:56,930
In fact, they were covered up.

754
00:24:57,170 --> 00:24:57,490
Wait a minute.

755
00:24:57,570 --> 00:24:57,830
Whoa.

756
00:24:57,870 --> 00:24:58,590
What do you say here?

757
00:24:58,630 --> 00:24:59,230
Hold on a second.

758
00:24:59,930 --> 00:25:00,650
Catch this.

759
00:25:00,970 --> 00:25:02,830
And we need to understand who were some

760
00:25:02,830 --> 00:25:04,430
of the associates of Jeffrey Epstein.

761
00:25:04,590 --> 00:25:05,830
Those names haven't come out.

762
00:25:06,030 --> 00:25:07,510
In fact, they were covered up.

763
00:25:07,650 --> 00:25:08,990
That's quite the allegation.

764
00:25:09,350 --> 00:25:12,210
What does he mean by associates other than

765
00:25:12,210 --> 00:25:13,030
Ghislaine Maxwell?

766
00:25:13,670 --> 00:25:15,410
And those names were covered up.

767
00:25:16,970 --> 00:25:18,790
I mean, what does he what what what

768
00:25:18,790 --> 00:25:19,910
does he really want?

769
00:25:20,030 --> 00:25:21,810
He wants that, you know, he's talking through

770
00:25:21,810 --> 00:25:22,310
his hat.

771
00:25:22,730 --> 00:25:25,090
We need to understand who may have abused

772
00:25:25,090 --> 00:25:26,370
or raped underage girls.

773
00:25:26,510 --> 00:25:28,630
But then there's a broader issue, and that

774
00:25:28,630 --> 00:25:30,710
is that there are rich and powerful people

775
00:25:30,710 --> 00:25:32,950
who may not have committed a crime, but

776
00:25:32,950 --> 00:25:35,670
who are emailing Jeffrey Epstein well after he's

777
00:25:35,670 --> 00:25:38,570
a pedophile talking about going to his.

778
00:25:38,790 --> 00:25:39,490
I love that.

779
00:25:39,890 --> 00:25:42,090
Well, after a day to an intern.

780
00:25:42,750 --> 00:25:46,130
OK, on June 8th, he became a pedophile.

781
00:25:46,270 --> 00:25:48,030
And before that, he was a normal guy.

782
00:25:48,110 --> 00:25:48,510
What?

783
00:25:48,910 --> 00:25:51,750
But who are emailing Jeffrey Epstein well after

784
00:25:51,750 --> 00:25:54,910
he's a pedophile talking about going to his

785
00:25:54,910 --> 00:25:57,910
island, talking about wanting to participate in wild

786
00:25:57,910 --> 00:25:58,350
parties.

787
00:25:58,390 --> 00:26:00,750
And the American people are under our eyes.

788
00:26:00,790 --> 00:26:01,910
Stop the presses.

789
00:26:02,850 --> 00:26:06,350
Everybody wants to participate in wild parties.

790
00:26:07,170 --> 00:26:07,950
Don't they?

791
00:26:07,990 --> 00:26:08,950
I'm with you on that.

792
00:26:09,030 --> 00:26:09,930
At least be there.

793
00:26:09,970 --> 00:26:10,830
At least get an invite.

794
00:26:11,190 --> 00:26:13,230
Well, if you if you know this, hey,

795
00:26:13,310 --> 00:26:15,830
Bill, over here has wild parties.

796
00:26:15,970 --> 00:26:17,790
Have you been to any of these wild

797
00:26:17,790 --> 00:26:18,170
parties?

798
00:26:18,350 --> 00:26:19,950
No, I've never been to one of them.

799
00:26:20,030 --> 00:26:20,730
I got to be honest.

800
00:26:20,890 --> 00:26:24,490
I've never been to a wild party or

801
00:26:24,490 --> 00:26:25,370
I left early.

802
00:26:27,430 --> 00:26:28,310
Wild party.

803
00:26:28,330 --> 00:26:28,810
I got to go.

804
00:26:29,030 --> 00:26:29,930
I mean, wild.

805
00:26:30,350 --> 00:26:33,050
Actually, now in the there was a period

806
00:26:33,050 --> 00:26:36,290
of time where there was a lot of

807
00:26:36,290 --> 00:26:40,910
orgy organized.

808
00:26:41,110 --> 00:26:42,050
There's a name for this.

809
00:26:42,150 --> 00:26:43,290
This process was there.

810
00:26:43,350 --> 00:26:48,090
There are literally organized orgies pre pre AIDS,

811
00:26:48,550 --> 00:26:50,070
which cropped up around the 80s.

812
00:26:50,130 --> 00:26:53,290
So in the 70s, there was especially I've

813
00:26:53,290 --> 00:26:55,170
never been to one of these, but I've

814
00:26:55,170 --> 00:26:55,870
always thought about it.

815
00:26:55,870 --> 00:26:57,650
And there used to be Plato's retreat in

816
00:26:57,650 --> 00:26:59,310
New York City, which was notorious.

817
00:26:59,310 --> 00:27:01,230
In fact, there was a playboy.

818
00:27:01,430 --> 00:27:04,110
Isn't that a mustache man's place?

819
00:27:04,670 --> 00:27:06,390
I don't know who mustache man is.

820
00:27:06,730 --> 00:27:07,230
Bolton.

821
00:27:08,430 --> 00:27:10,410
Wasn't he a member of Plato's retreat retreat?

822
00:27:10,550 --> 00:27:13,190
Wasn't that the nightclub?

823
00:27:13,370 --> 00:27:15,210
Where was the fart sniffing place?

824
00:27:15,330 --> 00:27:15,670
Wasn't that?

825
00:27:16,010 --> 00:27:17,230
But you had to get into you had

826
00:27:17,230 --> 00:27:19,290
to get you had to somehow get into

827
00:27:19,290 --> 00:27:19,410
it.

828
00:27:19,690 --> 00:27:22,910
Buck Henry, the great writer, wrote a piece

829
00:27:22,910 --> 00:27:26,010
in Playboy magazine where he went to Plato's

830
00:27:26,010 --> 00:27:30,370
retreat and wrote it up as a kind

831
00:27:30,370 --> 00:27:33,430
of a long essay feature.

832
00:27:34,090 --> 00:27:36,110
And he described what was going on.

833
00:27:36,350 --> 00:27:38,070
And it just sounded like it was an

834
00:27:38,070 --> 00:27:38,430
orgy.

835
00:27:38,530 --> 00:27:41,350
It was people, you know, walking around screwing

836
00:27:41,350 --> 00:27:43,170
everything that they could see over and over

837
00:27:43,170 --> 00:27:43,590
again.

838
00:27:43,750 --> 00:27:45,890
There were girls, you know, pulling a train.

839
00:27:46,070 --> 00:27:47,750
If you can remember what that term means,

840
00:27:48,150 --> 00:27:49,690
there's all this stuff going on.

841
00:27:49,710 --> 00:27:51,050
And he was witnessing it all.

842
00:27:51,430 --> 00:27:53,230
And this was going in the 70s.

843
00:27:53,310 --> 00:27:55,170
There was a lot of this sort of

844
00:27:55,170 --> 00:27:57,570
thing going on here and there.

845
00:27:57,750 --> 00:27:59,110
And they were caught and died.

846
00:27:59,250 --> 00:28:00,910
What I would assume would be a wild

847
00:28:00,910 --> 00:28:01,550
party.

848
00:28:01,910 --> 00:28:06,070
And so they kind of disappeared with AIDS.

849
00:28:06,190 --> 00:28:08,670
AIDS kind of put the kibosh on wild

850
00:28:08,670 --> 00:28:10,990
parties because of the nature of the of

851
00:28:10,990 --> 00:28:11,650
the ailment.

852
00:28:11,790 --> 00:28:12,110
Yes.

853
00:28:12,190 --> 00:28:13,890
And then so things calmed down.

854
00:28:13,950 --> 00:28:14,450
There hasn't been.

855
00:28:14,610 --> 00:28:16,350
But then did you hear about some guys

856
00:28:16,350 --> 00:28:17,250
still doing them?

857
00:28:17,590 --> 00:28:19,890
Well, I'd like to get in on that.

858
00:28:20,270 --> 00:28:22,190
I can't get past your pulling a train

859
00:28:22,190 --> 00:28:22,610
comment.

860
00:28:27,790 --> 00:28:29,690
Let's ask the robot for a second.

861
00:28:30,550 --> 00:28:32,810
Tell me about Plato's retreat in New York

862
00:28:32,810 --> 00:28:33,170
City.

863
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,120
Plato's retreat was a well-known swingers club

864
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:41,620
in New York City during the 1970s and

865
00:28:41,620 --> 00:28:42,440
1980s.

866
00:28:42,940 --> 00:28:45,580
It was famous for its exclusive atmosphere and

867
00:28:45,580 --> 00:28:48,000
played a significant role in the context of

868
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:49,680
the sexual revolution of that time.

869
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:52,900
The club eventually closed in the mid 1980s.

870
00:28:54,420 --> 00:28:56,800
Significant role in the sexual revolution of that

871
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:57,160
time.

872
00:28:57,740 --> 00:28:58,620
Yeah, right.

873
00:28:58,860 --> 00:28:59,880
Yes, that's wonderful.

874
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:01,060
Okay.

875
00:29:01,220 --> 00:29:01,760
Free sex.

876
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:03,640
Let me see where they were called free

877
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:04,360
sex parties.

878
00:29:04,940 --> 00:29:06,480
That's what they were good in the 70s.

879
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:07,440
Let's get back.

880
00:29:07,660 --> 00:29:08,580
They were advertised.

881
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:10,700
Let's get back to the clip file talking

882
00:29:10,700 --> 00:29:13,560
about going to his island, talking about wanting

883
00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:15,760
to participate in wild parties.

884
00:29:16,020 --> 00:29:19,560
And the American people are asking how are

885
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,000
our rich and powerful people living in this

886
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:22,260
country?

887
00:29:22,420 --> 00:29:24,240
What code are they living by?

888
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:27,260
Some of those revelations are deeply disturbing.

889
00:29:27,540 --> 00:29:29,360
No, no, this is you're right.

890
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:30,980
This is what everybody wants to know.

891
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:32,100
Tell me about these parties.

892
00:29:32,580 --> 00:29:33,880
These guys are living it up.

893
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:35,320
How can I get invited?

894
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:36,540
I think you're right.

895
00:29:37,180 --> 00:29:38,660
And he's like, oh, it's deeply disturbing.

896
00:29:39,340 --> 00:29:39,620
Oh, yeah.

897
00:29:39,660 --> 00:29:43,080
Now, everyone's approved, especially the Democrat side and

898
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:43,980
the squad.

899
00:29:44,460 --> 00:29:46,820
Oh, they went to a wild party.

900
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:48,800
Oh, nasty, nasty people.

901
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:50,760
Give me a break.

902
00:29:50,900 --> 00:29:51,280
We continue.

903
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:53,540
Let me ask you about what comes next.

904
00:29:53,540 --> 00:29:56,580
From your perspective, you've threatened contempt charges and

905
00:29:56,580 --> 00:29:59,600
even impeachment for Attorney General Pam Bondi.

906
00:29:59,740 --> 00:30:02,320
And I wonder, are you at a point

907
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,660
where you are prepared to move forward with

908
00:30:05,660 --> 00:30:08,480
contempt and impeachment charges against the attorney general?

909
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,360
Well, as you know, Kristen, Thomas Massey and

910
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,160
I brought this up in middle of December.

911
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,560
We still have not moved on it because

912
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:19,400
we are trying to give the Justice Department

913
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:20,660
some benefit of the doubt.

914
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:22,860
They did do a release that was significant.

915
00:30:23,020 --> 00:30:25,220
I mean, this is the most documents that

916
00:30:25,220 --> 00:30:28,120
we have seen released so far in history,

917
00:30:28,260 --> 00:30:29,900
but it is not good enough.

918
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,640
And so Thomas Massey and I have requested

919
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,220
a meeting with the deputy attorney general.

920
00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:37,320
He said he's open to meeting with members

921
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:37,800
of Congress.

922
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:40,580
He said he's open to explaining why the

923
00:30:40,580 --> 00:30:41,760
redactions were done.

924
00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:44,040
So I hope that we will have a

925
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,540
meeting if we don't get the remaining files,

926
00:30:46,580 --> 00:30:48,480
if we do not get the remaining 302

927
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:52,040
forms, the remaining prosecution memo from 2019.

928
00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:54,640
And if the survivors are not happy, then

929
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:56,760
Thomas Massey and I are prepared to move

930
00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:58,160
on impeachment or contempt.

931
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:00,780
Now, see, the problem is, and I'm not

932
00:31:00,780 --> 00:31:03,320
sure who launched it, but I'm pretty sure

933
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:06,280
it was from the Democrat Party, is the

934
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,120
concept of a client list.

935
00:31:08,940 --> 00:31:11,820
I can't recall Trump ever talking about a

936
00:31:11,820 --> 00:31:14,420
client list because that is not how it

937
00:31:14,420 --> 00:31:17,180
works in just media, social media in general.

938
00:31:17,340 --> 00:31:21,400
Trump ran on releasing the Epstein client list.

939
00:31:22,460 --> 00:31:26,260
And this is like a throwback to Heidi

940
00:31:26,260 --> 00:31:28,620
Fleiss, the Hollywood madam.

941
00:31:29,300 --> 00:31:29,440
Right.

942
00:31:29,540 --> 00:31:30,020
It is.

943
00:31:30,100 --> 00:31:30,480
Exactly.

944
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,660
You assume that there's a little black book.

945
00:31:33,780 --> 00:31:34,120
Yes.

946
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:37,280
And that's just not going to exist.

947
00:31:38,100 --> 00:31:39,260
That's the problem.

948
00:31:39,780 --> 00:31:41,960
Elaine Maxwell said so already.

949
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:43,540
Yeah, but that doesn't count.

950
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:47,440
It's like somehow people are completely convinced.

951
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:51,160
It's what is the, what is that, the

952
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:52,100
Berenstain's thing?

953
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:53,600
Was it, what is that?

954
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:55,500
Cosmic shift.

955
00:31:55,700 --> 00:31:56,440
What do we call that?

956
00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:58,160
Oh yeah, that.

957
00:31:58,720 --> 00:31:59,240
Thanks.

958
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:00,140
Yeah, that's helpful.

959
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:01,160
Oh yeah, that.

960
00:32:01,660 --> 00:32:02,400
Yeah, that.

961
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:06,380
Where everyone believes that there's this client list.

962
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,640
And that it's, that it exists.

963
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:12,900
And I guarantee you it never existed.

964
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:14,220
It just makes no sense.

965
00:32:14,580 --> 00:32:15,280
Mandela effect.

966
00:32:15,380 --> 00:32:15,720
There you go.

967
00:32:15,780 --> 00:32:16,160
Thank you.

968
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:16,900
Took a second.

969
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:18,520
The Mandela effect.

970
00:32:19,420 --> 00:32:21,200
I, and I looked.

971
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:25,900
There is no, these weren't, I mean, this

972
00:32:25,900 --> 00:32:28,040
guy was a networking maniac.

973
00:32:28,740 --> 00:32:31,520
Yeah, he, we, we have his address book.

974
00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:33,560
And the address book is all, is all

975
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:34,040
there is.

976
00:32:34,100 --> 00:32:35,680
I mean, what's more, what more do you

977
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:36,060
want?

978
00:32:36,780 --> 00:32:37,980
Does he have one with a bunch of

979
00:32:37,980 --> 00:32:41,220
stars next to the names or check marks

980
00:32:41,220 --> 00:32:42,600
or, or whatever?

981
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:44,380
Crash planes?

982
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:45,840
A file maker database.

983
00:32:46,220 --> 00:32:46,360
Yeah.

984
00:32:46,700 --> 00:32:47,120
Yeah.

985
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:49,420
File maker database, which by the way, if

986
00:32:49,420 --> 00:32:51,280
they had, they wouldn't, kind of wouldn't surprise

987
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:52,920
you because it turns out the two of

988
00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:55,140
them are online all the time.

989
00:32:55,260 --> 00:32:58,300
They were both gamers and geez.

990
00:32:58,680 --> 00:32:59,700
One more clip here.

991
00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:01,620
Well, let me ask you about another aspect

992
00:33:01,620 --> 00:33:03,980
of this former president, Bill Clinton, who is

993
00:33:03,980 --> 00:33:06,380
named in the Epstein files and former secretary

994
00:33:06,380 --> 00:33:09,780
of state Hillary Clinton have refused to comply

995
00:33:09,780 --> 00:33:12,500
with the house subpoenas in the Epstein investigation.

996
00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:15,240
We should note nearly half of your democratic

997
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:18,540
colleagues in the oversight committee voted to hold

998
00:33:18,540 --> 00:33:20,240
the former president in contempt.

999
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:23,960
As a result, you voted no Congressman.

1000
00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:25,700
I do want to set aside whether you

1001
00:33:25,700 --> 00:33:28,040
think the subpoenas are fair.

1002
00:33:28,460 --> 00:33:31,220
Do you think anyone has the right to

1003
00:33:31,220 --> 00:33:33,080
ignore a congressional subpoena?

1004
00:33:34,740 --> 00:33:35,900
No, I do not.

1005
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:38,200
And that's why I voted for civil contempt.

1006
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:42,520
And I've also said that president Clinton should

1007
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:44,720
come before the committee, but he should come

1008
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:47,160
after all the files have been released and

1009
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:50,600
he should come in conjunction with Donald Trump.

1010
00:33:51,300 --> 00:33:53,940
But it's premature in my view to hold

1011
00:33:53,940 --> 00:33:55,240
him in criminal contempt.

1012
00:33:55,980 --> 00:33:58,220
So brother.

1013
00:33:58,780 --> 00:33:59,040
Yeah.

1014
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:00,360
Yeah.

1015
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:02,880
So, but this is about one thing and

1016
00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:03,640
one thing only.

1017
00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:06,800
It is just about the 2026 election.

1018
00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:10,540
And as a, as witnessed here by Chuck

1019
00:34:10,540 --> 00:34:13,620
Schumer, they say they collected 6 million pages,

1020
00:34:13,780 --> 00:34:15,320
but they're only releasing three.

1021
00:34:15,460 --> 00:34:17,860
What happened to the other 3 million what's

1022
00:34:17,860 --> 00:34:18,280
in them?

1023
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:22,380
And finally, has every document that mentions the

1024
00:34:22,380 --> 00:34:23,760
word Trump been released?

1025
00:34:24,100 --> 00:34:26,179
Yes or no.

1026
00:34:26,500 --> 00:34:27,520
We need answers.

1027
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:29,980
It's now 42 days and counting that the

1028
00:34:29,980 --> 00:34:33,400
administration has violated the law by failing to

1029
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:35,500
release all the files.

1030
00:34:37,199 --> 00:34:39,699
Go do the people's business of New York,

1031
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:40,340
Chuck Schumer.

1032
00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:43,120
No, his business is what it is, which

1033
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:44,760
is getting the Democrats to win.

1034
00:34:44,820 --> 00:34:47,679
They just won another little election in Texas.

1035
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:52,360
Oh, did that, uh, the, the, yeah.

1036
00:34:52,580 --> 00:34:53,560
Christian socialist.

1037
00:34:53,739 --> 00:34:54,199
Did he get it?

1038
00:34:54,300 --> 00:34:54,600
Yeah.

1039
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:56,280
Oh, that's an interesting guy.

1040
00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:57,520
Yeah.

1041
00:34:57,540 --> 00:34:59,120
Well, he's a, he's a socialist.

1042
00:34:59,280 --> 00:34:59,940
He's a Democrat.

1043
00:34:59,940 --> 00:35:02,600
His Christianity is also a little wonky.

1044
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:05,620
Jesus is a concept.

1045
00:35:05,820 --> 00:35:06,040
Okay.

1046
00:35:06,300 --> 00:35:06,820
All right.

1047
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:13,960
So your clips out shine my two Scott

1048
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:15,160
Simon clips.

1049
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:17,980
Well, I know why you're saying it that

1050
00:35:17,980 --> 00:35:19,840
way, which means we're probably going to have

1051
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:21,880
to, to play the jingle.

1052
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:23,520
You want to play the, your Scott Simon

1053
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:24,320
clips or not?

1054
00:35:26,860 --> 00:35:27,340
Okay.

1055
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:34,620
So here we go.

1056
00:35:34,660 --> 00:35:37,700
This, these are again, by comparison to what

1057
00:35:37,700 --> 00:35:39,260
you dug up from the, especially the BBC

1058
00:35:39,260 --> 00:35:40,700
clips, which are outstanding.

1059
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,720
These are just kind of what NPR has

1060
00:35:43,720 --> 00:35:44,340
got to say.

1061
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:46,960
The justice department says it has finished releasing

1062
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:48,160
the Epstein files.

1063
00:35:48,380 --> 00:35:51,200
Friday morning, deputy attorney general Todd Blanch said

1064
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:54,600
another 3 million pages were published with respect

1065
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:56,460
to certain materials, a large quantity of the

1066
00:35:56,460 --> 00:36:00,280
materials, a rigorous process was undertaken to protect

1067
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:03,820
victims against any clearly unwarranted invasion of their

1068
00:36:03,820 --> 00:36:05,040
personal privacy.

1069
00:36:05,500 --> 00:36:07,920
But a team of NPR reporters reviewing the

1070
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,240
files have found that's not always the case.

1071
00:36:10,540 --> 00:36:13,000
Political reporter, Stephen Fowler is one of those

1072
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,100
reporters and joined us, Stephen, thanks for being

1073
00:36:15,100 --> 00:36:15,560
with us.

1074
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:16,240
Good morning.

1075
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:19,560
What has been There are more than 2000

1076
00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:22,600
videos, 180,000 images.

1077
00:36:23,220 --> 00:36:26,480
You've got internal files about Epstein's criminal cases

1078
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:29,540
and court documents, private files from his emails

1079
00:36:29,540 --> 00:36:31,040
and text messages with people.

1080
00:36:31,540 --> 00:36:34,040
And like the other releases, these files have

1081
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,620
no sense of organization or context and are

1082
00:36:37,620 --> 00:36:39,180
often heavily redacted.

1083
00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:42,740
That said, we did find examples of Epstein's

1084
00:36:42,740 --> 00:36:45,580
victims, names and photographs being unredacted.

1085
00:36:45,700 --> 00:36:48,980
In some cases, texts that Epstein sent, his

1086
00:36:48,980 --> 00:36:50,060
name was redacted.

1087
00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:51,960
And we even found a picture of President

1088
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,740
Trump's face in a news article hiding behind

1089
00:36:54,740 --> 00:36:55,520
a black square.

1090
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:56,880
No, no.

1091
00:36:58,620 --> 00:36:59,160
Candle.

1092
00:37:00,660 --> 00:37:01,600
That's great.

1093
00:37:03,860 --> 00:37:06,600
This is like people are paid now to

1094
00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:08,480
just sit there for NPR and go through

1095
00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:08,700
all that.

1096
00:37:08,700 --> 00:37:10,120
I found a picture of Trump.

1097
00:37:10,900 --> 00:37:12,040
It's been redacted.

1098
00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:12,920
Something's up.

1099
00:37:13,460 --> 00:37:14,940
Was he making a funny face?

1100
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:16,680
All of that.

1101
00:37:17,860 --> 00:37:18,500
Something's up.

1102
00:37:18,980 --> 00:37:19,700
Something's up.

1103
00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:20,900
All of that.

1104
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:25,500
People have to understand that we are counterculture.

1105
00:37:26,860 --> 00:37:30,480
So, you know, when everything was, oh, Obama's

1106
00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:30,760
great.

1107
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:32,160
We're going, no, he's probably not great.

1108
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:32,980
Let's go find out.

1109
00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:35,180
You know, everyone hates Trump.

1110
00:37:35,180 --> 00:37:37,200
And so like, yeah, we'll take a look

1111
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:37,980
and see what's up.

1112
00:37:38,380 --> 00:37:39,500
We're counterculture.

1113
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:42,280
But people, you know, it's like, well, there's

1114
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:43,880
got to be something in these Epstein files.

1115
00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:47,040
20 years, going on 20 years teaches us,

1116
00:37:47,180 --> 00:37:48,660
no, that's just not going to be.

1117
00:37:49,460 --> 00:37:51,120
It's easy to see.

1118
00:37:53,730 --> 00:37:54,210
Yes.

1119
00:37:54,930 --> 00:37:55,830
Yeah, you're right.

1120
00:37:55,950 --> 00:37:56,970
There's nothing going on.

1121
00:37:57,350 --> 00:37:58,850
It's going to be, you know, there'll be

1122
00:37:58,850 --> 00:38:00,970
a few little tidbits like the Bill Gates

1123
00:38:00,970 --> 00:38:03,890
thing and Musk begging to go to a

1124
00:38:03,890 --> 00:38:07,350
wild party because why wouldn't he?

1125
00:38:08,530 --> 00:38:09,850
You're Elon Musk.

1126
00:38:10,130 --> 00:38:10,430
Yeah.

1127
00:38:10,770 --> 00:38:12,810
And my wife likes wild parties.

1128
00:38:13,330 --> 00:38:14,370
Bunch of babies out there.

1129
00:38:14,430 --> 00:38:15,770
I want to go to a wild party

1130
00:38:15,770 --> 00:38:16,950
and get some more moms.

1131
00:38:17,650 --> 00:38:19,090
All of that being precious.

1132
00:38:19,530 --> 00:38:21,830
Anything new and noteworthy you found so far?

1133
00:38:22,130 --> 00:38:22,350
Yeah.

1134
00:38:22,510 --> 00:38:25,250
Well, looking through the chaos, we did find

1135
00:38:25,250 --> 00:38:27,470
new conversations with high profile figures.

1136
00:38:28,090 --> 00:38:29,210
And Thomas Massie.

1137
00:38:29,350 --> 00:38:31,030
Thomas Massie is certain about it.

1138
00:38:31,310 --> 00:38:33,310
Thomas Massie is being primaried.

1139
00:38:33,310 --> 00:38:34,650
He needs this.

1140
00:38:34,950 --> 00:38:37,150
This is a godsend for Thomas Massie.

1141
00:38:37,730 --> 00:38:39,330
That's why he's on this.

1142
00:38:39,630 --> 00:38:41,330
You think Thomas Massie really?

1143
00:38:42,070 --> 00:38:43,470
This is what he wakes up in the

1144
00:38:43,470 --> 00:38:43,910
middle of the night.

1145
00:38:44,010 --> 00:38:45,810
Oh, man, I got to find this corruption

1146
00:38:45,810 --> 00:38:46,490
amongst.

1147
00:38:46,650 --> 00:38:47,050
No way.

1148
00:38:47,230 --> 00:38:47,750
No way.

1149
00:38:47,950 --> 00:38:50,150
He wants to stay in office.

1150
00:38:51,010 --> 00:38:54,030
Years that are deeper and in some cases

1151
00:38:54,030 --> 00:38:55,990
more recent than we knew before.

1152
00:38:56,230 --> 00:38:59,990
People like Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Commerce Secretary

1153
00:38:59,990 --> 00:39:03,170
Howard Lutnick, former Obama White House Counsel Kathy

1154
00:39:03,170 --> 00:39:06,470
Rumler, even Trump's new Federal Reserve Chair pick

1155
00:39:06,470 --> 00:39:08,450
Kevin Warshowshire, shows up on an invite list

1156
00:39:08,450 --> 00:39:10,470
for a Christmas gathering in 2010.

1157
00:39:11,270 --> 00:39:13,470
This is important to note, though, that mentions

1158
00:39:13,470 --> 00:39:16,470
and conversations in this file are not indications

1159
00:39:16,470 --> 00:39:19,770
of wrongdoing or association with Epstein's crimes.

1160
00:39:19,990 --> 00:39:21,970
That's also true for an email in the

1161
00:39:21,970 --> 00:39:25,110
files that contain a collection of unverified allegations

1162
00:39:25,110 --> 00:39:28,190
of salacious and inappropriate conduct by Trump and

1163
00:39:28,190 --> 00:39:28,470
others.

1164
00:39:28,970 --> 00:39:31,070
The Justice Department pointed to a press release

1165
00:39:31,070 --> 00:39:34,110
that says files may include, quote, untrue and

1166
00:39:34,110 --> 00:39:36,590
sensationalist claims against President Trump.

1167
00:39:36,710 --> 00:39:38,650
By the way, and I said it.

1168
00:39:39,410 --> 00:39:40,530
I caught myself.

1169
00:39:40,930 --> 00:39:44,050
I didn't catch myself late, caught myself late.

1170
00:39:44,750 --> 00:39:45,150
Yes.

1171
00:39:45,650 --> 00:39:46,250
Yes.

1172
00:39:46,650 --> 00:39:48,690
This is grand jury testimony.

1173
00:39:48,970 --> 00:39:52,250
There's tons of outrageous claims that are sent

1174
00:39:52,250 --> 00:39:55,690
to the NYPD and FBI and even there

1175
00:39:55,690 --> 00:39:56,850
are like, really?

1176
00:39:57,050 --> 00:39:58,830
I mean, OK, well, we'll take that.

1177
00:39:58,890 --> 00:40:00,250
You know, and then I was abducted by

1178
00:40:00,250 --> 00:40:00,710
an alien.

1179
00:40:01,050 --> 00:40:03,070
OK, yeah, there's that too.

1180
00:40:03,150 --> 00:40:04,090
It's probably in there.

1181
00:40:04,230 --> 00:40:05,170
That's grand jury.

1182
00:40:05,290 --> 00:40:08,530
Grand jury, as they say, a grand jury

1183
00:40:08,530 --> 00:40:11,030
can indict a ham sandwich or Don Lemon.

1184
00:40:11,250 --> 00:40:13,690
I mean, either way, this is what grand

1185
00:40:13,690 --> 00:40:14,250
jury test.

1186
00:40:14,310 --> 00:40:16,950
This is why grand jury testimony is never

1187
00:40:16,950 --> 00:40:19,950
published, except in this one case where they

1188
00:40:19,950 --> 00:40:22,090
created a law in Congress that you have

1189
00:40:22,090 --> 00:40:24,310
to release that because it all you know,

1190
00:40:24,370 --> 00:40:26,490
it's not like there's no defense.

1191
00:40:26,510 --> 00:40:27,850
It's just people listen.

1192
00:40:27,850 --> 00:40:30,310
There's no cross examination, no cross examination.

1193
00:40:30,770 --> 00:40:34,070
Yeah, I think we should indict this guy.

1194
00:40:34,390 --> 00:40:35,430
That's how it goes.

1195
00:40:35,770 --> 00:40:37,750
Three million pages is a lot for you

1196
00:40:37,750 --> 00:40:39,390
and other reporters to go through.

1197
00:40:39,490 --> 00:40:40,470
What are you looking for?

1198
00:40:40,530 --> 00:40:41,850
Well, it's my job, Scott.

1199
00:40:42,030 --> 00:40:42,190
Sure.

1200
00:40:42,390 --> 00:40:44,390
I mean, days.

1201
00:40:44,930 --> 00:40:47,650
Our initial dive has found a trove of

1202
00:40:47,650 --> 00:40:50,290
information that is already out there in court

1203
00:40:50,290 --> 00:40:52,810
cases and early releases of the files.

1204
00:40:52,810 --> 00:40:54,870
But there's so much left to explore from

1205
00:40:54,870 --> 00:40:59,610
Epstein's private correspondence, financial documents and other communications

1206
00:40:59,610 --> 00:41:03,070
that widen the web of Epstein's associates.

1207
00:41:03,590 --> 00:41:06,330
Beyond the files themselves, though, attention is turning

1208
00:41:06,330 --> 00:41:07,530
to what isn't there.

1209
00:41:08,030 --> 00:41:10,910
The Epstein Files Transparency Act directs the Justice

1210
00:41:10,910 --> 00:41:12,890
Department to share with Congress all of the

1211
00:41:12,890 --> 00:41:15,310
redactions they made and why within the next

1212
00:41:15,310 --> 00:41:15,830
two weeks.

1213
00:41:16,430 --> 00:41:19,590
And they said that covers about 200000 pages

1214
00:41:19,590 --> 00:41:19,970
worth.

1215
00:41:20,190 --> 00:41:23,070
We've also already seen displeasure from victims who

1216
00:41:23,070 --> 00:41:25,210
say their names were exposed while other people

1217
00:41:25,210 --> 00:41:26,830
who committed abuse were left protected.

1218
00:41:27,490 --> 00:41:29,530
And from members of Congress who say the

1219
00:41:29,530 --> 00:41:31,970
Trump administration has not followed the law.

1220
00:41:32,590 --> 00:41:35,450
And in a way, publishing three million files

1221
00:41:35,450 --> 00:41:38,550
like this in this manner just makes closure

1222
00:41:38,550 --> 00:41:42,210
and finality even less likely for everybody involved

1223
00:41:42,210 --> 00:41:42,490
here.

1224
00:41:42,770 --> 00:41:46,290
That was the whole point that they released

1225
00:41:46,290 --> 00:41:46,870
three million.

1226
00:41:46,970 --> 00:41:49,110
And now they say this did it wrong.

1227
00:41:49,250 --> 00:41:49,730
You did it wrong.

1228
00:41:50,130 --> 00:41:52,510
This is like the joke about, you know,

1229
00:41:52,510 --> 00:41:54,690
the food at this restaurant is so bad.

1230
00:41:55,170 --> 00:41:55,370
Yeah.

1231
00:41:55,430 --> 00:41:57,130
And the portions are so small.

1232
00:41:57,410 --> 00:42:00,430
It's just like you can't win with these

1233
00:42:00,430 --> 00:42:00,850
people.

1234
00:42:01,210 --> 00:42:03,990
But it's great because worldwide people are showing

1235
00:42:03,990 --> 00:42:05,690
up in the in these documents.

1236
00:42:05,870 --> 00:42:07,430
Marco Atisari.

1237
00:42:08,050 --> 00:42:12,930
He is the son of Marty Atisari, Finland's

1238
00:42:12,930 --> 00:42:13,690
former president.

1239
00:42:14,210 --> 00:42:16,850
And he's on some tech companies, some satellite

1240
00:42:16,850 --> 00:42:17,570
company.

1241
00:42:18,390 --> 00:42:19,570
You know, he has to come out, make

1242
00:42:19,570 --> 00:42:20,330
a statement.

1243
00:42:21,330 --> 00:42:23,510
Jeffrey Epstein's criminal conduct and the convictions related

1244
00:42:23,510 --> 00:42:25,870
to him are a grave and unequivocal, condemnable.

1245
00:42:26,170 --> 00:42:28,250
I have had no personal professional relationship with

1246
00:42:28,250 --> 00:42:28,490
him.

1247
00:42:29,030 --> 00:42:31,250
It's like this is exactly what you get

1248
00:42:31,250 --> 00:42:31,810
from this.

1249
00:42:32,690 --> 00:42:34,070
The guy was a money guy.

1250
00:42:34,190 --> 00:42:35,130
He was a money guy.

1251
00:42:35,370 --> 00:42:38,690
He was a laundry money, massive networking guy.

1252
00:42:38,750 --> 00:42:40,870
He was and he was being aided by

1253
00:42:40,870 --> 00:42:43,930
one or more intelligence agencies, obviously.

1254
00:42:44,470 --> 00:42:44,570
Yes.

1255
00:42:44,730 --> 00:42:46,550
And a lot of money was out there.

1256
00:42:46,710 --> 00:42:47,030
Everybody.

1257
00:42:47,170 --> 00:42:48,750
I mean, it's a miracle we didn't meet.

1258
00:42:48,850 --> 00:42:50,210
I almost did, by the way.

1259
00:42:50,310 --> 00:42:51,230
I actually did it.

1260
00:42:51,290 --> 00:42:51,950
Let me just check.

1261
00:42:52,010 --> 00:42:52,350
Let me see.

1262
00:42:52,410 --> 00:42:53,830
I came very close.

1263
00:42:54,130 --> 00:42:55,610
Well, you came close to meeting Epstein.

1264
00:42:56,250 --> 00:42:57,270
Oh, very close.

1265
00:42:57,430 --> 00:42:59,290
I was invited to one of the events.

1266
00:42:59,650 --> 00:42:59,870
A party.

1267
00:43:00,030 --> 00:43:00,950
You invited to a party.

1268
00:43:01,090 --> 00:43:02,850
No, I was invited to somebody at third

1269
00:43:02,850 --> 00:43:05,410
party's party that had Epstein as a guest

1270
00:43:05,410 --> 00:43:07,770
who was horning in on it.

1271
00:43:07,970 --> 00:43:09,330
And I put a gun to it.

1272
00:43:09,510 --> 00:43:12,190
But in my I like to joke about

1273
00:43:12,190 --> 00:43:13,110
this classic.

1274
00:43:13,410 --> 00:43:13,650
I would.

1275
00:43:13,990 --> 00:43:15,890
I don't want to make myself a legend,

1276
00:43:16,110 --> 00:43:18,490
but the classic Devorah, you are a legend,

1277
00:43:18,570 --> 00:43:18,910
man.

1278
00:43:18,910 --> 00:43:21,430
It was like I'm here sitting here in,

1279
00:43:22,190 --> 00:43:23,430
you know, in Northern California.

1280
00:43:23,450 --> 00:43:25,530
And there's oh, yeah, you want to come

1281
00:43:25,530 --> 00:43:25,850
to this.

1282
00:43:25,990 --> 00:43:28,470
There's a billionaires dinner, all these famous guys.

1283
00:43:28,570 --> 00:43:29,710
You're going to have all the CEOs.

1284
00:43:29,710 --> 00:43:31,530
And then I found it later.

1285
00:43:31,630 --> 00:43:32,430
Epstein was there.

1286
00:43:33,090 --> 00:43:35,570
It was done by my agent.

1287
00:43:35,570 --> 00:43:36,190
Yes.

1288
00:43:36,550 --> 00:43:37,950
And it was in Monterey.

1289
00:43:38,030 --> 00:43:39,130
And I'm looking at the clock.

1290
00:43:39,250 --> 00:43:40,290
I'm looking at what's TV.

1291
00:43:41,470 --> 00:43:42,790
Should I drive?

1292
00:43:43,030 --> 00:43:45,570
No, I'm staying home.

1293
00:43:45,770 --> 00:43:46,210
Forget it.

1294
00:43:46,250 --> 00:43:47,230
This is like canceling.

1295
00:43:47,310 --> 00:43:49,070
You know, I've done this with trips on

1296
00:43:49,070 --> 00:43:49,730
the airplanes.

1297
00:43:49,890 --> 00:43:50,570
I'm calling in.

1298
00:43:50,650 --> 00:43:51,330
I'm not going.

1299
00:43:51,550 --> 00:43:52,830
Dukes of Hazzard is on.

1300
00:43:52,950 --> 00:43:54,470
I have no desire to go.

1301
00:43:55,770 --> 00:43:58,230
What do I want to drive to Monterey

1302
00:43:58,230 --> 00:43:58,610
for?

1303
00:43:58,750 --> 00:43:59,430
Who cares?

1304
00:43:59,550 --> 00:44:00,150
I meet a bunch.

1305
00:44:00,370 --> 00:44:01,690
I met these guys before.

1306
00:44:01,690 --> 00:44:04,230
They're just doesn't do me any good.

1307
00:44:04,290 --> 00:44:06,490
I've made no money from the experience.

1308
00:44:06,930 --> 00:44:07,930
What difference does it make?

1309
00:44:08,210 --> 00:44:10,490
Yeah, no, that is it right there.

1310
00:44:10,590 --> 00:44:12,410
I make no money from the experience.

1311
00:44:12,730 --> 00:44:13,710
What difference does it make?

1312
00:44:13,710 --> 00:44:15,190
So you meet some famous guys.

1313
00:44:15,430 --> 00:44:16,630
What do you get out of it?

1314
00:44:16,750 --> 00:44:19,010
Oh, I met so-and-so.

1315
00:44:19,410 --> 00:44:23,170
So moving on to Don Lemon, because I

1316
00:44:23,170 --> 00:44:24,430
do have a couple of things I want

1317
00:44:24,430 --> 00:44:28,490
to discuss regarding this, mainly the horrible education

1318
00:44:28,490 --> 00:44:29,890
we have in our country.

1319
00:44:30,470 --> 00:44:33,030
And to start it off, congratulating you because,

1320
00:44:33,150 --> 00:44:35,730
you know, you brought up the obvious point

1321
00:44:35,730 --> 00:44:39,230
that Don Lemon's producers were handling him.

1322
00:44:39,730 --> 00:44:43,070
And he was inserted into this op.

1323
00:44:43,670 --> 00:44:45,730
He was a C.I. and I almost

1324
00:44:45,730 --> 00:44:48,070
predicted to the day when they'd arrest him

1325
00:44:48,070 --> 00:44:49,750
that they had to arrest him.

1326
00:44:49,930 --> 00:44:50,030
Yep.

1327
00:44:50,450 --> 00:44:51,950
Hey, how come we didn't do a prop

1328
00:44:51,950 --> 00:44:52,150
bet?

1329
00:44:52,150 --> 00:44:54,790
We could have written a contract on Kelsey.

1330
00:44:54,930 --> 00:44:56,850
We could have written a contract to arrest

1331
00:44:56,850 --> 00:44:57,270
him.

1332
00:44:57,630 --> 00:44:58,950
That would have been a good prop bet.

1333
00:44:59,150 --> 00:45:00,890
So let's just talk about this for a

1334
00:45:00,890 --> 00:45:03,670
second, because there's all kinds of fun people

1335
00:45:03,670 --> 00:45:04,290
around this.

1336
00:45:04,350 --> 00:45:06,610
And again, education in our country is very,

1337
00:45:06,750 --> 00:45:07,190
very sad.

1338
00:45:07,370 --> 00:45:10,130
Former CNN journalist Don Lemon has been arrested

1339
00:45:10,130 --> 00:45:12,490
in connection with an incident at a Minnesota

1340
00:45:12,490 --> 00:45:13,110
church.

1341
00:45:13,610 --> 00:45:16,170
Attorney General Pam Bondi made the announcement this

1342
00:45:16,170 --> 00:45:18,370
morning on January 18th.

1343
00:45:18,370 --> 00:45:21,070
Lemon attended a protest that disrupted a service

1344
00:45:21,070 --> 00:45:22,810
at City's Church in St. Paul.

1345
00:45:23,330 --> 00:45:25,310
The protesters said one of the pastors is

1346
00:45:25,310 --> 00:45:27,530
the acting field director of the St. Paul

1347
00:45:27,530 --> 00:45:28,750
Ice Field Office.

1348
00:45:29,250 --> 00:45:31,550
Bondi said Lemon and three others were arrested

1349
00:45:31,550 --> 00:45:34,950
in connection with the, quote, coordinated attack on

1350
00:45:34,950 --> 00:45:36,030
City's Church.

1351
00:45:36,470 --> 00:45:38,690
Lemon's attorney said today that the journalist was

1352
00:45:38,690 --> 00:45:41,430
taken into custody by federal agents while he

1353
00:45:41,430 --> 00:45:43,870
was in Los Angeles covering the Grammy Awards.

1354
00:45:43,870 --> 00:45:47,610
The attorney called Lemon's arrest a, quote, unprecedented

1355
00:45:47,610 --> 00:45:49,650
attack on the First Amendment.

1356
00:45:50,130 --> 00:45:52,290
So we're going to talk about the First

1357
00:45:52,290 --> 00:45:53,250
Amendment in a minute.

1358
00:45:53,970 --> 00:45:55,770
But the first thing we need to do

1359
00:45:55,770 --> 00:45:58,230
is recognize that Don Lemon has never been

1360
00:45:58,230 --> 00:45:59,050
a journalist.

1361
00:45:59,530 --> 00:46:01,310
Don Lemon is a newsreader.

1362
00:46:01,370 --> 00:46:02,710
That is what he's always been.

1363
00:46:03,350 --> 00:46:06,570
Maybe some entertainment interviews where he was an

1364
00:46:06,570 --> 00:46:07,370
interviewer.

1365
00:46:07,610 --> 00:46:10,150
But can you remember where he was ever

1366
00:46:10,150 --> 00:46:15,470
a journalist and collecting news and sorting through

1367
00:46:15,470 --> 00:46:15,570
things?

1368
00:46:15,570 --> 00:46:17,030
No, I don't remember him ever doing that.

1369
00:46:17,210 --> 00:46:19,490
Well, of course not, because he's not.

1370
00:46:20,150 --> 00:46:21,070
He's an entertainer.

1371
00:46:21,190 --> 00:46:24,230
He was fired when he wasn't getting along

1372
00:46:24,230 --> 00:46:27,390
with the two ladies on that morning show.

1373
00:46:27,610 --> 00:46:28,350
What was the name?

1374
00:46:28,510 --> 00:46:28,910
Do you remember that?

1375
00:46:28,910 --> 00:46:29,810
Well, he actually brought in somebody.

1376
00:46:30,810 --> 00:46:34,890
His commentary was that some women get too

1377
00:46:34,890 --> 00:46:36,030
old for...

1378
00:46:36,030 --> 00:46:39,410
He had an ageist, sexist...

1379
00:46:39,410 --> 00:46:40,450
It wasn't a joke.

1380
00:46:40,530 --> 00:46:42,310
It was a dead serious comment he made

1381
00:46:42,310 --> 00:46:44,250
about, don't you think women are too old

1382
00:46:44,250 --> 00:46:45,390
to do something or other?

1383
00:46:45,490 --> 00:46:46,450
And it was...

1384
00:46:46,450 --> 00:46:48,710
I'm sure we could dig up the exact

1385
00:46:48,710 --> 00:46:50,110
quote, but it got him fired.

1386
00:46:50,370 --> 00:46:50,630
Yes.

1387
00:46:51,110 --> 00:46:52,830
And it was an entertainment show.

1388
00:46:52,990 --> 00:46:54,130
He wasn't doing...

1389
00:46:54,130 --> 00:46:57,730
If anything, CNN is analysis, but it's not

1390
00:46:57,730 --> 00:47:00,210
journalism in the classic sense.

1391
00:47:00,210 --> 00:47:01,310
If you want to call that analysis.

1392
00:47:01,590 --> 00:47:01,770
Yeah.

1393
00:47:02,250 --> 00:47:03,550
It's a propaganda front.

1394
00:47:03,550 --> 00:47:06,210
So coming right out to defend Don Lemon

1395
00:47:06,210 --> 00:47:09,890
and his First Amendment rights, which is a

1396
00:47:09,890 --> 00:47:13,170
gross misrepresentation of what all of the Bill

1397
00:47:13,170 --> 00:47:18,210
of Rights are, is the closely associated with

1398
00:47:18,210 --> 00:47:22,970
all kinds of intelligence, Jane Fonda, who at

1399
00:47:22,970 --> 00:47:26,510
88, I have to say, man, she's spry.

1400
00:47:27,850 --> 00:47:29,010
She's all the work.

1401
00:47:29,090 --> 00:47:30,770
She has good work has been done on

1402
00:47:30,770 --> 00:47:30,970
her.

1403
00:47:31,850 --> 00:47:34,850
And I'm just impressed with her just jumping

1404
00:47:34,850 --> 00:47:36,330
up and down and running up and down

1405
00:47:36,330 --> 00:47:36,710
steps.

1406
00:47:36,710 --> 00:47:38,670
Well, she's always been in good shape.

1407
00:47:39,190 --> 00:47:40,650
She had a couple of bones removed.

1408
00:47:43,390 --> 00:47:43,790
Yeah.

1409
00:47:43,790 --> 00:47:45,630
She's one of those people that had a

1410
00:47:45,630 --> 00:47:47,710
couple of those ribs removed to make her,

1411
00:47:47,730 --> 00:47:49,710
you know, shape hang in there.

1412
00:47:49,930 --> 00:47:50,350
Oh, really?

1413
00:47:50,730 --> 00:47:51,650
Is that a fact?

1414
00:47:51,730 --> 00:47:52,590
Do you know this for a fact?

1415
00:47:52,590 --> 00:47:54,170
I know.

1416
00:47:54,310 --> 00:47:55,570
I think Dolly Parton did, too.

1417
00:47:56,130 --> 00:47:58,130
It's not an uncommon procedure.

1418
00:47:58,650 --> 00:48:02,070
But anyway, she deserves props for being 88

1419
00:48:02,070 --> 00:48:03,490
and spry.

1420
00:48:03,630 --> 00:48:05,990
She still sounds like, you know, this is

1421
00:48:05,990 --> 00:48:08,150
kind of annoying to me.

1422
00:48:09,310 --> 00:48:12,650
These women, Elizabeth Taylor was the worst case

1423
00:48:12,650 --> 00:48:13,190
example.

1424
00:48:13,650 --> 00:48:15,450
She got into, I think, into her 80s,

1425
00:48:15,530 --> 00:48:19,190
but she had now there is good plastic

1426
00:48:19,190 --> 00:48:21,690
surgery, which I think is rare.

1427
00:48:21,690 --> 00:48:23,570
But the rest of her body gave out

1428
00:48:23,570 --> 00:48:26,370
and bad plastic surgery.

1429
00:48:27,350 --> 00:48:29,970
Elizabeth Taylor had, I think, pretty good plastic

1430
00:48:29,970 --> 00:48:30,290
surgery.

1431
00:48:30,350 --> 00:48:32,370
So she looks like she was in her

1432
00:48:32,370 --> 00:48:34,930
40s or 50s when she was 80.

1433
00:48:35,190 --> 00:48:35,430
Yeah.

1434
00:48:35,530 --> 00:48:37,250
But then she would go on a talk

1435
00:48:37,250 --> 00:48:40,570
show and looking like a 40 year old

1436
00:48:40,570 --> 00:48:43,450
woman and sounding when I was a kid,

1437
00:48:43,590 --> 00:48:44,710
fiddlesticks.

1438
00:48:45,350 --> 00:48:46,910
Well, she she had.

1439
00:48:47,090 --> 00:48:49,450
And then Jane Fonda has the same element

1440
00:48:49,450 --> 00:48:53,170
of being an old woman when she talks

1441
00:48:53,170 --> 00:48:56,750
that that Elizabeth Taylor did not quite as

1442
00:48:56,750 --> 00:48:57,090
bad.

1443
00:48:57,270 --> 00:48:58,010
I have a clip.

1444
00:48:58,130 --> 00:49:01,490
So I know Don Lemon, my husband created

1445
00:49:01,490 --> 00:49:02,610
CNN.

1446
00:49:03,290 --> 00:49:05,170
And isn't that the one she abandoned?

1447
00:49:06,110 --> 00:49:06,790
Ted Turner.

1448
00:49:06,930 --> 00:49:07,590
Didn't she abandon?

1449
00:49:07,950 --> 00:49:09,270
I think Ted Turner died on her.

1450
00:49:09,430 --> 00:49:11,630
Well, no, she'd already divorced him, I think.

1451
00:49:12,330 --> 00:49:13,570
Let's look into it.

1452
00:49:14,710 --> 00:49:15,370
Let's ask.

1453
00:49:15,490 --> 00:49:17,870
But yeah, well, she marries Ted Turner, becomes

1454
00:49:17,870 --> 00:49:18,630
a Republican.

1455
00:49:19,390 --> 00:49:20,790
And, you know, this woman is one of

1456
00:49:20,790 --> 00:49:22,390
these flip floppers.

1457
00:49:22,510 --> 00:49:23,210
Hold on a second.

1458
00:49:23,690 --> 00:49:25,890
Was Jane Fonda still married to Ted Turner

1459
00:49:25,890 --> 00:49:26,570
when he died?

1460
00:49:30,210 --> 00:49:31,590
Ted Turner is still alive.

1461
00:49:31,690 --> 00:49:32,590
No, he's not changing.

1462
00:49:36,470 --> 00:49:37,430
What robot?

1463
00:49:37,650 --> 00:49:38,250
You're wrong.

1464
00:49:38,410 --> 00:49:39,510
Ted Turner is dead.

1465
00:49:39,610 --> 00:49:40,570
What are you talking about?

1466
00:49:41,210 --> 00:49:41,510
Is.

1467
00:49:43,810 --> 00:49:46,090
I apologize for the misunderstanding.

1468
00:49:46,850 --> 00:49:49,910
But according to my current information, Ted Turner

1469
00:49:49,910 --> 00:49:50,970
is still alive.

1470
00:49:51,310 --> 00:49:53,650
He and Jane Fonda divorced in 2001.

1471
00:49:54,550 --> 00:49:56,770
Is there something specific you are wondering about?

1472
00:49:56,910 --> 00:49:58,870
No, I'm not wondering about anything after that

1473
00:49:58,870 --> 00:49:59,210
answer.

1474
00:50:00,050 --> 00:50:01,970
Was Ted Turner still alive or not?

1475
00:50:02,110 --> 00:50:03,770
Well, no, he's not alive.

1476
00:50:04,430 --> 00:50:05,330
He died.

1477
00:50:05,510 --> 00:50:08,250
He died of Alzheimer's, I think.

1478
00:50:08,370 --> 00:50:10,470
Horrible, horrible, slow death.

1479
00:50:10,470 --> 00:50:12,110
Well, let's look this up.

1480
00:50:12,250 --> 00:50:15,430
Now we're stuck here with this conundrum, with

1481
00:50:15,430 --> 00:50:17,990
this damn robot telling us that we don't

1482
00:50:17,990 --> 00:50:18,370
know.

1483
00:50:18,570 --> 00:50:19,090
Robot.

1484
00:50:19,270 --> 00:50:22,990
Are you sure Ted Turner, who created CNN

1485
00:50:22,990 --> 00:50:25,670
and Turner Networks, is alive?

1486
00:50:28,220 --> 00:50:29,800
Yes, I am sure.

1487
00:50:30,340 --> 00:50:33,000
Ted Turner, the founder of CNN and Turner

1488
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:34,960
Broadcasting, is still alive today.

1489
00:50:35,460 --> 00:50:38,460
There seems to be a persistent misconception, but

1490
00:50:38,460 --> 00:50:39,720
he is not deceased.

1491
00:50:40,200 --> 00:50:41,700
You know, maybe it's true.

1492
00:50:41,800 --> 00:50:42,660
Maybe he's still alive.

1493
00:50:42,720 --> 00:50:44,740
I thought he was dead.

1494
00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:47,660
I'm sorry.

1495
00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:51,160
The news of Ted Turner's death has been

1496
00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:52,200
greatly exaggerated.

1497
00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:55,380
Is the robot right?

1498
00:50:56,020 --> 00:50:57,620
I think the robot is right.

1499
00:50:57,840 --> 00:50:59,880
I'm not finding any evidence of his being

1500
00:50:59,880 --> 00:51:00,160
dead.

1501
00:51:00,240 --> 00:51:01,560
I was so sure he was dead.

1502
00:51:02,140 --> 00:51:02,980
I was too.

1503
00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:03,580
Anyway.

1504
00:51:03,900 --> 00:51:05,520
In fact, you go to Google, they even

1505
00:51:05,520 --> 00:51:07,760
have a Is Ted Turner still alive?

1506
00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:12,240
It's the Mandela effect.

1507
00:51:12,500 --> 00:51:13,560
Here it is, still alive.

1508
00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:14,960
It was January 2025.

1509
00:51:15,660 --> 00:51:17,000
As of January 2025.

1510
00:51:17,500 --> 00:51:18,000
Wow.

1511
00:51:18,700 --> 00:51:21,700
He's 86, recuperating at a rehabilitation center by

1512
00:51:21,700 --> 00:51:23,420
being hospitalized from pneumonia.

1513
00:51:24,180 --> 00:51:26,440
And he has Lewy body dementia.

1514
00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:27,900
Oh, that's bad.

1515
00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:28,340
That's bad.

1516
00:51:28,340 --> 00:51:29,100
I'm sorry, Ted.

1517
00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:29,780
I'm sorry.

1518
00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:30,360
I didn't mean to.

1519
00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:31,440
Yeah, he's got Lewy body.

1520
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:32,400
So he is has.

1521
00:51:32,660 --> 00:51:35,600
So the robot rules, the robot has done

1522
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:36,180
a good job.

1523
00:51:36,260 --> 00:51:38,160
The robot has saved us from embarrassment.

1524
00:51:38,540 --> 00:51:39,960
I'm kind of irked the fact that I

1525
00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:40,620
thought he was dead.

1526
00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:44,160
So I know Don Lemon, my husband created

1527
00:51:44,160 --> 00:51:47,540
CNN, and I will fight for their right

1528
00:51:47,540 --> 00:51:50,940
to speak, which is guaranteed in our constitution.

1529
00:51:51,260 --> 00:51:51,640
Correct.

1530
00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:53,000
That's correct.

1531
00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:54,820
That part is correct.

1532
00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:55,540
Jane Fonda.

1533
00:51:56,560 --> 00:51:58,600
I just want to read the First Amendment.

1534
00:51:59,340 --> 00:52:00,040
Congress shall make.

1535
00:52:00,580 --> 00:52:03,160
It's important because everyone is doing this wrong.

1536
00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:06,800
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment

1537
00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:11,600
of religion such as Krustafarianism or prohibiting the

1538
00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:15,780
free exercise thereof, which means that's Congress, that's

1539
00:52:15,780 --> 00:52:19,460
the government or abridging the freedom of speech

1540
00:52:19,460 --> 00:52:21,200
or of the press.

1541
00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:25,040
And just to put that into context, when

1542
00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:27,720
this was written, the press literally meant the

1543
00:52:27,720 --> 00:52:30,020
press, the printing press.

1544
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:31,440
Am I correct on this, John?

1545
00:52:32,980 --> 00:52:35,620
Well, it did refer to the news to

1546
00:52:35,620 --> 00:52:40,300
news made to news reporting via the press.

1547
00:52:40,700 --> 00:52:42,360
That's where the word came from.

1548
00:52:42,420 --> 00:52:44,540
The press, the press came from that word,

1549
00:52:44,620 --> 00:52:47,460
whether it's whether it's the pamphlet, a pamphlet

1550
00:52:47,460 --> 00:52:49,440
or the New Yorker would be the same

1551
00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:49,780
thing.

1552
00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:50,100
Yes.

1553
00:52:50,680 --> 00:52:53,400
So but you have the right to say

1554
00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:55,440
and publish and print whatever you want.

1555
00:52:55,780 --> 00:52:57,300
Of course, there are tort laws.

1556
00:52:57,920 --> 00:52:59,340
And that is correct.

1557
00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:02,140
But that's that's not what Don Lemon was

1558
00:53:02,140 --> 00:53:02,700
doing.

1559
00:53:04,220 --> 00:53:06,640
They arrested the wrong Don.

1560
00:53:06,900 --> 00:53:07,620
That's a good line.

1561
00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:13,360
Don Lemon is a professional journalist.

1562
00:53:13,500 --> 00:53:13,740
No.

1563
00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:16,460
And his producer were doing their job.

1564
00:53:16,460 --> 00:53:18,560
Nothing more, nothing less.

1565
00:53:19,860 --> 00:53:22,800
And he's been arrested and they'll make up

1566
00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:26,080
all kinds of defamatory things to say about

1567
00:53:26,080 --> 00:53:26,280
him.

1568
00:53:26,360 --> 00:53:27,240
That's what they're doing.

1569
00:53:27,700 --> 00:53:29,480
This is how autocrats act.

1570
00:53:30,220 --> 00:53:31,640
We can't fall for it.

1571
00:53:31,980 --> 00:53:33,600
We have to speak up.

1572
00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:36,920
When a red line is crossed like this,

1573
00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:38,140
we cannot be silent.

1574
00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:39,640
Thank you very much.

1575
00:53:39,760 --> 00:53:42,460
Now, wasn't Jane Fonda involved in all kinds

1576
00:53:42,460 --> 00:53:47,960
of agency antics, certainly regarding Vietnam?

1577
00:53:48,500 --> 00:53:49,840
I mean, she was involved in a lot

1578
00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:50,380
of different.

1579
00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:52,580
Hanoi, Hanoi, Hanoi Jane.

1580
00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:55,660
She used to go to Vietnam and she

1581
00:53:55,660 --> 00:53:58,400
was reached for the for the communists.

1582
00:53:58,520 --> 00:53:58,740
Yes.

1583
00:53:58,920 --> 00:53:59,200
Yeah.

1584
00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:00,000
She's a communist.

1585
00:54:00,240 --> 00:54:01,520
So now we have and then she was

1586
00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:03,480
married to Tom Hayden, who is a radical

1587
00:54:03,480 --> 00:54:05,240
out of the University of California, Berkeley.

1588
00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:09,260
And he was an ugly fucker, too, is

1589
00:54:09,260 --> 00:54:09,640
weird.

1590
00:54:09,980 --> 00:54:11,600
And so she married this guy.

1591
00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:14,460
And they were they were cohorts.

1592
00:54:14,620 --> 00:54:16,140
But, you know, when you know, let's just

1593
00:54:16,140 --> 00:54:17,340
start when you're Jane Fonda.

1594
00:54:17,540 --> 00:54:19,440
At a certain point, you think, well, maybe

1595
00:54:19,440 --> 00:54:21,520
if I just get this ugly guy, he'll

1596
00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:23,400
just love me, you know, and he'll just

1597
00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:25,020
he'll just stick with me and won't be

1598
00:54:25,020 --> 00:54:26,980
a douchebag because he feel fee so feel

1599
00:54:26,980 --> 00:54:27,600
so lucky.

1600
00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:29,840
I think how many times you've been married

1601
00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:32,540
five times, four or five times to Jane

1602
00:54:32,540 --> 00:54:32,820
Fonda.

1603
00:54:32,900 --> 00:54:34,260
I'm not even going to ask the robot

1604
00:54:34,260 --> 00:54:35,440
because we're going to get it all wrong,

1605
00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:35,980
no doubt.

1606
00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:37,440
No, I don't want to guess.

1607
00:54:38,080 --> 00:54:39,480
Well, she's been well, you know, she was

1608
00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:41,960
married to Hayden and maybe somebody else.

1609
00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:43,280
And I don't know, we could look it

1610
00:54:43,280 --> 00:54:43,980
up.

1611
00:54:44,060 --> 00:54:46,440
Now, it's not that I'm going to look

1612
00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:46,820
it up.

1613
00:54:47,020 --> 00:54:47,120
OK.

1614
00:54:47,220 --> 00:54:49,740
Meanwhile, being gay, we can't we're starting to

1615
00:54:49,740 --> 00:54:50,920
act like podcasters.

1616
00:54:51,940 --> 00:54:55,240
We now go to a First Amendment lawyer

1617
00:54:56,180 --> 00:54:57,040
on ABC.

1618
00:54:57,520 --> 00:54:58,820
Tonight's social story.

1619
00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:00,440
That's where we post three stories on social

1620
00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:02,620
media and you decide which story we cover.

1621
00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:05,740
This week's choices were Don Lemon's release and

1622
00:55:05,740 --> 00:55:06,540
federal charges.

1623
00:55:06,540 --> 00:55:09,700
Catherine O'Hara's lasting legacy and the changes

1624
00:55:09,700 --> 00:55:11,220
coming to SNAP food benefits.

1625
00:55:11,340 --> 00:55:13,440
With 47 percent of the vote, you chose

1626
00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:16,240
the Department of Justice's case against Don Lemon.

1627
00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:17,580
I find this amazing.

1628
00:55:18,140 --> 00:55:19,260
So 47.

1629
00:55:20,120 --> 00:55:24,440
The choices were Catherine O'Hara, great actress.

1630
00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:25,980
She passed away very young.

1631
00:55:26,080 --> 00:55:27,160
Seventy two, I believe.

1632
00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:31,900
Snap changes coming to SNAP benefits, which just

1633
00:55:31,900 --> 00:55:34,620
two months ago was the important thing in

1634
00:55:34,620 --> 00:55:35,760
the entire universe.

1635
00:55:35,900 --> 00:55:38,320
But no, the number one story for ABC

1636
00:55:38,320 --> 00:55:39,480
viewers is Don Lemon.

1637
00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:42,140
According to a court indictment, Lemon and others

1638
00:55:42,140 --> 00:55:44,340
are now facing federal charges in connection with

1639
00:55:44,340 --> 00:55:47,280
a protest disrupting a church service in St.

1640
00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:47,840
Paul, Minnesota.

1641
00:55:48,120 --> 00:55:50,980
You can't disrupt the church services, the face

1642
00:55:50,980 --> 00:55:51,580
act.

1643
00:55:51,720 --> 00:55:54,100
Listen to the First Amendment lawyer and independent

1644
00:55:54,100 --> 00:55:56,800
journalist Georgia Fort, who was also arrested, have

1645
00:55:56,800 --> 00:55:57,880
been released from custody.

1646
00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:00,420
Lemon says he is not guilty and he

1647
00:56:00,420 --> 00:56:02,360
and his attorney plan to fight the case.

1648
00:56:02,540 --> 00:56:04,300
Here to break this down is First Amendment

1649
00:56:04,300 --> 00:56:05,300
lawyer Jeff Lewis.

1650
00:56:05,500 --> 00:56:08,820
Jeff, administration officials say they're actually protecting the

1651
00:56:08,820 --> 00:56:11,380
First Amendment rights of the worshipers at the

1652
00:56:11,380 --> 00:56:12,560
church where the protests happened.

1653
00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:13,980
What do you make of the government's case

1654
00:56:13,980 --> 00:56:14,200
here?

1655
00:56:14,380 --> 00:56:15,540
Which, by the way, I disagree.

1656
00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:17,180
I said it again, man, I got to

1657
00:56:17,180 --> 00:56:17,940
stop doing that.

1658
00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:19,360
I had to catch myself now.

1659
00:56:20,340 --> 00:56:20,760
I disagree.

1660
00:56:21,060 --> 00:56:22,500
Well, I'm I'm this.

1661
00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:23,840
By the way, I've said this for the

1662
00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:24,920
last 18 years.

1663
00:56:24,940 --> 00:56:26,280
You just said, by the way, again.

1664
00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:27,680
Oh, my God.

1665
00:56:27,680 --> 00:56:29,860
But by the way, by the way, by

1666
00:56:29,860 --> 00:56:32,020
the way, by the way, by the way,

1667
00:56:32,040 --> 00:56:33,140
I'm going to say it enough times to

1668
00:56:33,140 --> 00:56:34,040
get it out of my system.

1669
00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:35,540
If I say it too much, it'll be

1670
00:56:35,540 --> 00:56:36,080
even better.

1671
00:56:36,380 --> 00:56:39,380
But I've noticed over the years that you

1672
00:56:39,380 --> 00:56:42,240
are better at this at catching yourself.

1673
00:56:42,300 --> 00:56:44,020
You're more professional than I am.

1674
00:56:44,020 --> 00:56:45,520
And I proved it right there.

1675
00:56:47,060 --> 00:56:48,880
And so I'm going to be the one

1676
00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:51,100
holding the bag when this is done, because

1677
00:56:51,100 --> 00:56:52,680
I'm going to still be saying it.

1678
00:56:52,700 --> 00:56:53,220
Yeah, OK.

1679
00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:53,940
And it's all right.

1680
00:56:54,020 --> 00:56:55,540
You've got to stop me every time.

1681
00:56:55,820 --> 00:56:56,340
I will.

1682
00:56:56,600 --> 00:56:56,900
I will.

1683
00:56:57,100 --> 00:56:59,440
I'm stopping myself stopping the show for myself.

1684
00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:02,220
I just wanted to point out that.

1685
00:57:03,420 --> 00:57:07,120
Protesters interrupting the church service is not it's

1686
00:57:07,120 --> 00:57:10,020
not a violation of their First Amendment right,

1687
00:57:10,560 --> 00:57:12,380
which is not a right is a God

1688
00:57:12,380 --> 00:57:14,920
given right, because the only thing in the

1689
00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:17,880
First Amendment says that Congress can't make a

1690
00:57:17,880 --> 00:57:18,700
law against.

1691
00:57:18,820 --> 00:57:19,060
Right.

1692
00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:21,400
So it's not it's this is what this

1693
00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:22,180
pisses me off.

1694
00:57:22,560 --> 00:57:23,580
This is bullcrap.

1695
00:57:23,700 --> 00:57:25,260
They don't even why don't they bring it

1696
00:57:25,260 --> 00:57:27,040
to what it is really about, which is

1697
00:57:27,040 --> 00:57:28,500
the FACE Act.

1698
00:57:28,780 --> 00:57:29,900
They're not going to do that.

1699
00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:32,060
That's what he violated.

1700
00:57:32,260 --> 00:57:33,420
That's the law that he broke.

1701
00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:35,420
They why don't they talk about that?

1702
00:57:35,580 --> 00:57:38,640
Because they are all missing there.

1703
00:57:39,260 --> 00:57:40,320
No, no.

1704
00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:41,440
Over socializing.

1705
00:57:41,680 --> 00:57:42,280
You assume that they're missing.

1706
00:57:42,500 --> 00:57:43,920
No, they're doing this on purpose.

1707
00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:45,000
No, no.

1708
00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:47,340
Even the First Amendment lawyer gets it wrong.

1709
00:57:47,420 --> 00:57:48,440
Listen to this nonsense.

1710
00:57:48,440 --> 00:57:50,400
Well, the government is right in the sense

1711
00:57:50,400 --> 00:57:51,200
of purpose.

1712
00:57:51,500 --> 00:57:54,000
Nah, I share between the rights of citizens

1713
00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:56,200
to enter and exit a house of worship

1714
00:57:56,200 --> 00:57:57,920
and pray without interruption.

1715
00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:00,700
No, that FACE Act.

1716
00:58:00,900 --> 00:58:02,660
Yes, but not the First Amendment.

1717
00:58:02,860 --> 00:58:03,280
That right.

1718
00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:05,400
And the right of journalists to report on

1719
00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:07,300
the news, to gather the news, to show

1720
00:58:07,300 --> 00:58:09,080
to America what's happening in Minnesota.

1721
00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:10,620
Those are in conflict.

1722
00:58:11,140 --> 00:58:12,540
This is not true.

1723
00:58:12,740 --> 00:58:14,260
This is this is insincere.

1724
00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:15,660
You think this guy's sincere?

1725
00:58:16,020 --> 00:58:16,840
Well, let's continue.

1726
00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:18,380
Let's get down to brass tacks here.

1727
00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:19,520
Do you think this could ever get to

1728
00:58:19,520 --> 00:58:19,800
trial?

1729
00:58:20,340 --> 00:58:21,780
Well, let's let's talk about that.

1730
00:58:22,100 --> 00:58:23,960
Three judges have looked at these criminal charges

1731
00:58:23,960 --> 00:58:25,980
before a grand jury indicted Don Lemon.

1732
00:58:26,320 --> 00:58:28,900
And those three judges all declined to force

1733
00:58:28,900 --> 00:58:29,900
criminal charges here.

1734
00:58:30,580 --> 00:58:32,440
So in that was Democrat judges.

1735
00:58:32,800 --> 00:58:34,500
In fact, I would expect that it not

1736
00:58:34,500 --> 00:58:36,400
to go to trial if a judge ever

1737
00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:38,080
has a chance to dismiss this case.

1738
00:58:38,220 --> 00:58:39,840
And let's say it does go to trial.

1739
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:41,840
Does the Justice Department have a strong case

1740
00:58:41,840 --> 00:58:43,220
here or is this mostly symbolic?

1741
00:58:43,660 --> 00:58:45,620
It depends on how you measure the objectives

1742
00:58:45,620 --> 00:58:46,480
of the administration.

1743
00:58:46,880 --> 00:58:49,440
If the administration's objectives are to get a

1744
00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:52,140
criminal conviction and get Don Lemon in jail,

1745
00:58:52,380 --> 00:58:54,040
I don't think there's a strong chance of

1746
00:58:54,040 --> 00:58:54,240
that.

1747
00:58:54,540 --> 00:58:55,760
On the other hand, if they want to

1748
00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:58,680
punish Don Lemon and have him have to

1749
00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:00,840
spend money on attorney's fees, that could be

1750
00:59:00,840 --> 00:59:02,000
viewed as success.

1751
00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:03,940
And as to the merits of the case,

1752
00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:06,480
the prosecution would have to prove that Don

1753
00:59:06,480 --> 00:59:08,460
Lemon entered that church with the intent to

1754
00:59:08,460 --> 00:59:12,100
either destroy property or interrupt services in a

1755
00:59:12,100 --> 00:59:14,060
way that impinges on constitutional rights.

1756
00:59:14,060 --> 00:59:17,060
No, no, it's the face.

1757
00:59:17,240 --> 00:59:21,200
In fact, the indictment itself mentions the grand

1758
00:59:21,200 --> 00:59:21,860
jury report.

1759
00:59:21,920 --> 00:59:25,360
I'm sorry, specifically points out the face act.

1760
00:59:25,560 --> 00:59:26,940
And it was like, well, you can read

1761
00:59:26,940 --> 00:59:27,660
it for yourself.

1762
00:59:28,720 --> 00:59:30,880
But this is what this results in.

1763
00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:34,400
Here are I'm just bringing this up.

1764
00:59:34,620 --> 00:59:35,620
We'll get back to Lemon.

1765
00:59:35,760 --> 00:59:41,280
But this is Colorado students cutting class to

1766
00:59:41,280 --> 00:59:42,960
go protest against ICE.

1767
00:59:43,040 --> 00:59:44,620
And I just bring it up because it's.

1768
00:59:45,280 --> 00:59:47,660
Are they were they cutting class or were

1769
00:59:47,660 --> 00:59:49,680
they sent out by this by the cutting,

1770
00:59:49,880 --> 00:59:50,460
cutting class?

1771
00:59:50,600 --> 00:59:51,540
They were cutting class.

1772
00:59:51,660 --> 00:59:53,900
Well, because around the Bay Area and elsewhere,

1773
00:59:53,900 --> 00:59:56,520
they were released by the by the school.

1774
00:59:56,700 --> 00:59:57,280
Come on.

1775
00:59:57,380 --> 00:59:58,080
Come on, kids.

1776
00:59:58,100 --> 01:00:00,020
Let's go protest the issue.

1777
01:00:00,160 --> 01:00:01,500
And we'll get back to Don Lemon.

1778
01:00:01,680 --> 01:00:04,920
But this is about the First Amendment, the

1779
01:00:04,920 --> 01:00:06,980
power, the right of the people to peaceably

1780
01:00:06,980 --> 01:00:07,480
assemble.

1781
01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:09,960
The government shall not disallow that or make

1782
01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:11,080
any law against it.

1783
01:00:11,380 --> 01:00:13,980
But listen to these students who all seem

1784
01:00:13,980 --> 01:00:16,500
to be around 15, 16 years old.

1785
01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:21,980
It is atrocious how poorly they understand just

1786
01:00:21,980 --> 01:00:25,100
the basic civics of the United States that

1787
01:00:25,100 --> 01:00:26,400
they're born and live in.

1788
01:00:26,800 --> 01:00:30,140
And this is a condemnation of our education

1789
01:00:30,140 --> 01:00:30,680
system.

1790
01:00:31,120 --> 01:00:33,020
Homeschool right away.

1791
01:00:33,900 --> 01:00:35,780
Before first period even started.

1792
01:00:35,980 --> 01:00:37,620
I mean, it's still unexcused absences.

1793
01:00:37,620 --> 01:00:40,020
They're still going to mark our work missing.

1794
01:00:40,140 --> 01:00:42,300
These students made a decision to show up

1795
01:00:42,300 --> 01:00:44,700
here in a field outside Denver's North High

1796
01:00:44,700 --> 01:00:46,900
School to say that we're not going to

1797
01:00:46,900 --> 01:00:48,340
sit around and let it happen.

1798
01:00:49,260 --> 01:00:51,020
The walkouts are part of a national wave

1799
01:00:51,020 --> 01:00:53,540
of protests tied to immigration enforcement and ICE

1800
01:00:53,540 --> 01:00:56,000
activity, especially after the killings of Rene Good.

1801
01:00:56,240 --> 01:00:59,240
It's just like so maddening to me, like

1802
01:00:59,240 --> 01:01:01,920
it makes me angry in my core because

1803
01:01:01,920 --> 01:01:04,440
there's absolutely no reason for that to have

1804
01:01:04,440 --> 01:01:04,720
happened.

1805
01:01:04,720 --> 01:01:06,020
These kids walked.

1806
01:01:06,300 --> 01:01:08,300
I saw some posts from friends at North

1807
01:01:08,300 --> 01:01:10,600
about like a protest and walking to the

1808
01:01:10,600 --> 01:01:10,900
Capitol.

1809
01:01:11,100 --> 01:01:13,100
I think we're expecting around 50 students or

1810
01:01:13,100 --> 01:01:14,100
hopefully more.

1811
01:01:15,140 --> 01:01:16,880
By the time they reached the Capitol, there

1812
01:01:16,880 --> 01:01:17,900
were more than 50.

1813
01:01:18,220 --> 01:01:20,400
Thousands of students from around the state who

1814
01:01:20,400 --> 01:01:22,920
decided showing up here mattered more than a

1815
01:01:22,920 --> 01:01:23,660
day in class.

1816
01:01:24,100 --> 01:01:26,440
People are scared in our community and we

1817
01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:28,220
really wanted to take a stand against that.

1818
01:01:28,320 --> 01:01:30,160
And I know that while it's not here

1819
01:01:30,160 --> 01:01:31,960
right now, it very well could be.

1820
01:01:32,460 --> 01:01:34,000
And to be part of this movement feels

1821
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:36,560
just like I'm doing my job as a

1822
01:01:36,560 --> 01:01:36,900
citizen.

1823
01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:39,960
Teachers protested by not showing up too.

1824
01:01:40,180 --> 01:01:42,700
Aurora Public Schools and Adams 14 school districts

1825
01:01:42,700 --> 01:01:43,220
closed.

1826
01:01:43,560 --> 01:01:45,900
Denver Public Schools delayed start times all because

1827
01:01:45,900 --> 01:01:47,740
of unexpected staff absences.

1828
01:01:48,220 --> 01:01:50,160
It's just like a matter of human and

1829
01:01:50,160 --> 01:01:50,580
civil rights.

1830
01:01:51,080 --> 01:01:52,980
And I think that's something that we all

1831
01:01:52,980 --> 01:01:53,540
should stand for.

1832
01:01:53,740 --> 01:01:55,520
Many of these students aren't old enough to

1833
01:01:55,520 --> 01:01:57,700
vote, but today this is how they say

1834
01:01:57,700 --> 01:01:58,940
they're using their voice.

1835
01:01:59,260 --> 01:02:01,840
I'm really proud to see this many students

1836
01:02:01,840 --> 01:02:03,860
taking a stand for what they believe in.

1837
01:02:04,060 --> 01:02:06,400
This is us using our First Amendment rights,

1838
01:02:06,620 --> 01:02:08,780
which were created for this very purpose.

1839
01:02:09,040 --> 01:02:12,400
No, no, no.

1840
01:02:13,020 --> 01:02:15,280
This is so disappointing.

1841
01:02:15,980 --> 01:02:18,500
These rights were not created for this very

1842
01:02:18,500 --> 01:02:18,920
purpose.

1843
01:02:19,180 --> 01:02:20,900
You have these rights.

1844
01:02:21,280 --> 01:02:23,260
The First Amendment is not a right.

1845
01:02:23,360 --> 01:02:27,240
It is a against government interference with your

1846
01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:30,560
literally God-given rights, as it says in

1847
01:02:30,560 --> 01:02:31,300
the Constitution.

1848
01:02:31,720 --> 01:02:34,000
But here this guy takes the cake, Harvey

1849
01:02:34,000 --> 01:02:34,400
Levin.

1850
01:02:35,120 --> 01:02:37,940
We don't really play much from TMZ, but

1851
01:02:37,940 --> 01:02:43,040
Harvey Levin, whose entire business exists because of

1852
01:02:43,040 --> 01:02:45,920
his First Amendment right, as he would say

1853
01:02:45,920 --> 01:02:46,200
it.

1854
01:02:46,880 --> 01:02:50,280
It has such a gross misunderstanding of it.

1855
01:02:50,540 --> 01:02:53,160
So the Trump administration wonders why people are

1856
01:02:53,160 --> 01:02:55,480
saying that they are trying to form a

1857
01:02:55,480 --> 01:02:55,980
dictatorship.

1858
01:02:56,960 --> 01:02:59,200
Well, look at the landscape.

1859
01:02:59,980 --> 01:03:05,580
Arresting Don Lemon, who covered a protest in

1860
01:03:05,580 --> 01:03:13,920
Minneapolis, is just insane, ridiculous, dictator-like.

1861
01:03:14,420 --> 01:03:18,700
This is the playbook that dictators use to

1862
01:03:18,700 --> 01:03:22,260
destroy democracies and take the will of the

1863
01:03:22,260 --> 01:03:23,180
people away.

1864
01:03:23,400 --> 01:03:24,900
It is as simple as that.

1865
01:03:25,260 --> 01:03:27,800
The First Amendment is the First Amendment for

1866
01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:28,720
a reason.

1867
01:03:28,980 --> 01:03:32,860
It is considered the preferred amendment when you

1868
01:03:32,860 --> 01:03:35,460
have to start balancing what's more important.

1869
01:03:35,760 --> 01:03:39,320
The framers of the Constitution knew that a

1870
01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:41,980
free press was essential.

1871
01:03:42,220 --> 01:03:44,360
This is where he goes off the rails

1872
01:03:44,360 --> 01:03:44,800
already.

1873
01:03:45,380 --> 01:03:46,460
This is ridiculous.

1874
01:03:46,640 --> 01:03:50,640
Besides the fact that Harvey Levin hates Trump.

1875
01:03:50,820 --> 01:03:52,340
Let's start with that premise.

1876
01:03:52,580 --> 01:03:55,420
And he should preface everything he says with,

1877
01:03:55,560 --> 01:03:57,360
I don't know what I'm talking about.

1878
01:03:57,480 --> 01:03:59,580
I hate Trump, but here I go.

1879
01:04:00,640 --> 01:04:04,480
But he immediately goes to free press, like

1880
01:04:04,480 --> 01:04:05,220
free speech.

1881
01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:07,600
No, there's no such thing as a free

1882
01:04:07,600 --> 01:04:08,080
press.

1883
01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:10,480
In fact, there's nothing free press because it's

1884
01:04:10,480 --> 01:04:11,940
all behind the paywall these days.

1885
01:04:11,960 --> 01:04:12,760
There's no free press.

1886
01:04:12,980 --> 01:04:15,480
You gotta pay for it all.

1887
01:04:15,980 --> 01:04:18,040
So now he's like, instead of the right

1888
01:04:18,040 --> 01:04:22,820
to publish without interference from the government, which

1889
01:04:22,820 --> 01:04:26,880
is exactly what the Biden administration did with

1890
01:04:26,880 --> 01:04:27,860
the social networks.

1891
01:04:28,140 --> 01:04:29,800
They didn't create a law, but they did

1892
01:04:29,800 --> 01:04:31,680
abridge speech.

1893
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:33,920
Yes, they were the bad actors.

1894
01:04:34,200 --> 01:04:34,420
They actually abridged it.

1895
01:04:34,820 --> 01:04:36,660
And I say to some extent Obama did

1896
01:04:36,660 --> 01:04:37,400
similar things.

1897
01:04:37,620 --> 01:04:39,480
But it's not free press.

1898
01:04:39,480 --> 01:04:42,960
The framers of the Constitution knew that a

1899
01:04:42,960 --> 01:04:46,800
free press was essential to a democracy.

1900
01:04:47,260 --> 01:04:49,320
Without a free press, you don't have a

1901
01:04:49,320 --> 01:04:49,820
democracy.

1902
01:04:50,260 --> 01:04:53,100
And it's real clear that Donald Trump and

1903
01:04:53,100 --> 01:04:55,400
company doesn't want a free press.

1904
01:04:55,900 --> 01:05:00,680
The idea that a journalist, which Don Lemon

1905
01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:02,200
has been for 30 years.

1906
01:05:02,560 --> 01:05:03,480
A news reader.

1907
01:05:04,080 --> 01:05:07,240
Would walk into a church and film a

1908
01:05:07,240 --> 01:05:11,400
demonstration, which is of national interest.

1909
01:05:12,040 --> 01:05:14,820
And then to say, somehow, when you watch

1910
01:05:14,820 --> 01:05:16,160
the video, they say he's part of the

1911
01:05:16,160 --> 01:05:16,480
protest.

1912
01:05:16,980 --> 01:05:18,000
Watch that video.

1913
01:05:18,400 --> 01:05:20,660
He is covering the protest.

1914
01:05:21,300 --> 01:05:22,380
He is covering it.

1915
01:05:22,520 --> 01:05:23,640
That's what journalists do.

1916
01:05:23,780 --> 01:05:25,660
No, what journalists do is they go and

1917
01:05:25,660 --> 01:05:28,500
read the grand jury report, which is very

1918
01:05:28,500 --> 01:05:32,140
clear that he was trespassing, that he was

1919
01:05:32,140 --> 01:05:34,220
a part of the operation.

1920
01:05:34,780 --> 01:05:36,280
He was a part of the planning.

1921
01:05:36,560 --> 01:05:37,740
He was a part of the planning.

1922
01:05:37,840 --> 01:05:38,900
He was part of the briefing.

1923
01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:41,000
He violated the FACE Act.

1924
01:05:42,100 --> 01:05:44,560
And he was live streaming the whole setup.

1925
01:05:44,780 --> 01:05:45,620
Don't tell anybody.

1926
01:05:46,020 --> 01:05:47,700
We don't want to tell anyone where we

1927
01:05:47,700 --> 01:05:50,580
are because this operation is about to take

1928
01:05:50,580 --> 01:05:50,860
place.

1929
01:05:51,020 --> 01:05:52,960
That's not the work of a journalist.

1930
01:05:53,540 --> 01:05:54,520
The journalist.

1931
01:05:54,920 --> 01:05:57,000
This is like the best analogy, which I

1932
01:05:57,000 --> 01:05:58,920
did not heard on the mainstream is the

1933
01:05:58,920 --> 01:05:59,300
following.

1934
01:05:59,860 --> 01:06:02,900
I get involved with a bank robbing crew.

1935
01:06:03,200 --> 01:06:03,340
Yeah.

1936
01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:06,400
And so we go rob a bank and

1937
01:06:06,400 --> 01:06:07,960
I'm I'm interviewing the people.

1938
01:06:08,080 --> 01:06:09,280
What do you how you feel there on

1939
01:06:09,280 --> 01:06:10,640
the ground with a gun pointed at your

1940
01:06:10,640 --> 01:06:10,840
head?

1941
01:06:10,900 --> 01:06:11,520
How's it going?

1942
01:06:12,200 --> 01:06:13,440
Oh, I don't like it.

1943
01:06:13,460 --> 01:06:14,360
It makes me very nervous.

1944
01:06:14,500 --> 01:06:16,180
I feel the same way if I were

1945
01:06:16,180 --> 01:06:16,280
you.

1946
01:06:16,320 --> 01:06:17,860
And then you take the mic around to

1947
01:06:17,860 --> 01:06:18,480
the tellers.

1948
01:06:18,480 --> 01:06:20,860
Are you giving him all the money you

1949
01:06:20,860 --> 01:06:21,200
give him?

1950
01:06:21,400 --> 01:06:22,240
Well, OK, I got it.

1951
01:06:22,300 --> 01:06:22,700
I got it.

1952
01:06:22,980 --> 01:06:24,520
And so then you go out with the

1953
01:06:24,520 --> 01:06:26,320
and you got into the getaway car and

1954
01:06:26,320 --> 01:06:27,560
go off with the bank robbers.

1955
01:06:28,040 --> 01:06:29,580
You got nothing to do with it.

1956
01:06:29,620 --> 01:06:30,400
Are you kidding me?

1957
01:06:30,780 --> 01:06:32,660
You're part of a bank robbing crew.

1958
01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:33,220
Yes.

1959
01:06:34,020 --> 01:06:36,020
And he and the evidence is on his

1960
01:06:36,020 --> 01:06:36,820
live stream.

1961
01:06:37,280 --> 01:06:39,180
He was live streaming the whole trip all

1962
01:06:39,180 --> 01:06:40,700
the way there and kept on saying, well,

1963
01:06:40,720 --> 01:06:42,680
we can't talk about this because we don't

1964
01:06:42,680 --> 01:06:44,400
want to disturb the.

1965
01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:47,720
By the way, by the way, about what

1966
01:06:47,720 --> 01:06:49,900
you're saying about that, by the way, I

1967
01:06:49,900 --> 01:06:52,080
think that, you know, if you if if

1968
01:06:52,080 --> 01:06:54,280
they really wanted to do something to Don

1969
01:06:54,280 --> 01:06:57,820
Lemon, there's conspiracy involved because this is a

1970
01:06:57,820 --> 01:06:59,960
conspiracy the way he presented it.

1971
01:07:00,140 --> 01:07:02,220
He has the documentation for the whole thing

1972
01:07:02,220 --> 01:07:03,900
and they're going to tell anybody what's going

1973
01:07:03,900 --> 01:07:04,180
on.

1974
01:07:04,380 --> 01:07:05,580
And he's working with them.

1975
01:07:05,940 --> 01:07:08,560
If they if this was serious and he

1976
01:07:08,560 --> 01:07:14,540
was really not just a a an informant,

1977
01:07:14,620 --> 01:07:16,140
a confidential informant.

1978
01:07:17,020 --> 01:07:19,240
They would throw the conspiracy book at him

1979
01:07:19,240 --> 01:07:20,580
and nobody's mentioned that.

1980
01:07:20,680 --> 01:07:22,260
So I think that I still stick with

1981
01:07:22,260 --> 01:07:22,920
my theory.

1982
01:07:23,620 --> 01:07:23,740
Yeah.

1983
01:07:23,840 --> 01:07:26,420
Conspiracy did not get you can get a

1984
01:07:26,420 --> 01:07:28,300
lot of jail time for conspiracy.

1985
01:07:28,960 --> 01:07:31,040
Continue on the morning of January 18th.

1986
01:07:31,060 --> 01:07:33,060
All of the defendants got in vehicles, traveled

1987
01:07:33,060 --> 01:07:36,240
with their co-conspirators, of which Lemon is

1988
01:07:36,240 --> 01:07:40,680
actually, I guess that does charge conspiracy, to

1989
01:07:40,680 --> 01:07:42,780
the church to engage in the planned takeover

1990
01:07:42,780 --> 01:07:43,640
style operation.

1991
01:07:43,820 --> 01:07:45,560
While en route to the church, Defendant Richardson

1992
01:07:45,560 --> 01:07:48,360
told Defendant Lemon they had to catch up

1993
01:07:48,360 --> 01:07:48,980
to the others.

1994
01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:51,580
And Defendant Lemon replied, let's go catch up.

1995
01:07:51,900 --> 01:07:53,940
And because he was still live streaming, Lemon

1996
01:07:53,940 --> 01:07:57,240
instructed Richardson and an unidentified male, don't give

1997
01:07:57,240 --> 01:07:59,900
anything away and advice his audience.

1998
01:07:59,980 --> 01:08:01,120
We can't say too much.

1999
01:08:01,240 --> 01:08:02,300
We don't want to give it up.

2000
01:08:03,040 --> 01:08:03,800
Yes, that is.

2001
01:08:03,940 --> 01:08:05,580
And then they keep mentioning he's not.

2002
01:08:05,700 --> 01:08:08,720
There's no charge of conspiracy, the charge of

2003
01:08:08,720 --> 01:08:10,880
trespassing and violation.

2004
01:08:11,180 --> 01:08:12,260
I don't think there will, because they want

2005
01:08:12,260 --> 01:08:15,740
to give theoretically based on the thesis.

2006
01:08:16,200 --> 01:08:18,420
They want to give him some time in

2007
01:08:18,420 --> 01:08:20,080
jail so he can get a street cred

2008
01:08:20,080 --> 01:08:22,040
back and said he'd been in.

2009
01:08:22,120 --> 01:08:23,420
He's been, you know, I was in the

2010
01:08:23,420 --> 01:08:23,819
hole.

2011
01:08:24,120 --> 01:08:25,460
I mean, he wants to be able to

2012
01:08:25,460 --> 01:08:26,380
go in the shoe.

2013
01:08:26,460 --> 01:08:27,300
I was in the shoe.

2014
01:08:27,939 --> 01:08:29,660
He wants to be able to go back

2015
01:08:29,660 --> 01:08:32,200
as a black man who's been in jail.

2016
01:08:32,260 --> 01:08:33,020
I've been in jail.

2017
01:08:33,180 --> 01:08:34,260
I know what it's like.

2018
01:08:36,200 --> 01:08:38,100
And I'll wrap it up with Harvey Lemon.

2019
01:08:38,340 --> 01:08:38,880
Harvey Lemon.

2020
01:08:39,500 --> 01:08:40,580
Harvey Lemon.

2021
01:08:41,000 --> 01:08:41,680
You got it.

2022
01:08:41,700 --> 01:08:42,300
You nailed it.

2023
01:08:42,399 --> 01:08:42,880
You got it.

2024
01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:43,680
Harvey Lemon.

2025
01:08:43,680 --> 01:08:44,479
Harvey Lemon.

2026
01:08:45,319 --> 01:08:46,680
Here's Harvey Lemon.

2027
01:08:48,359 --> 01:08:50,899
And his true nature comes out, of course.

2028
01:08:51,240 --> 01:08:54,160
Trump administration should be ashamed of itself, but

2029
01:08:54,160 --> 01:08:54,560
they're not.

2030
01:08:54,859 --> 01:08:57,399
And they will continue to do this.

2031
01:08:57,399 --> 01:08:59,740
And they are going after journalists.

2032
01:08:59,859 --> 01:09:01,960
They're getting search warrants for their homes.

2033
01:09:02,200 --> 01:09:04,740
It is obvious what's happening.

2034
01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:05,960
Another thing.

2035
01:09:06,560 --> 01:09:09,279
The First Amendment does not actually protect your

2036
01:09:09,279 --> 01:09:09,760
sources.

2037
01:09:10,720 --> 01:09:12,080
It does not.

2038
01:09:13,420 --> 01:09:14,479
You know, there's no it doesn't.

2039
01:09:14,540 --> 01:09:15,819
That's just a gentleman's agreement.

2040
01:09:16,160 --> 01:09:18,899
And there's certain states that have specific laws

2041
01:09:18,899 --> 01:09:20,319
against protection of sources.

2042
01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:24,040
But certainly Obama threw journalists in jail.

2043
01:09:24,319 --> 01:09:26,359
Obama went after all these guys.

2044
01:09:26,359 --> 01:09:29,060
They had subpoenas and all the rest and

2045
01:09:29,060 --> 01:09:29,760
search warrants.

2046
01:09:29,899 --> 01:09:30,319
What is it?

2047
01:09:30,640 --> 01:09:32,720
But how come we have forgotten about Obama?

2048
01:09:33,040 --> 01:09:35,180
Because this guy hates Trump and listen to

2049
01:09:35,180 --> 01:09:36,439
him compare Trump to Hitler.

2050
01:09:36,760 --> 01:09:39,740
It is obvious what's happening in this country.

2051
01:09:39,939 --> 01:09:43,279
People look at what is happening.

2052
01:09:43,779 --> 01:09:45,920
You're going to look back in two years

2053
01:09:45,920 --> 01:09:47,960
if somebody doesn't stand up to them.

2054
01:09:47,960 --> 01:09:49,859
And I know people are now, but you're

2055
01:09:49,859 --> 01:09:51,120
going to look back in two years and

2056
01:09:51,120 --> 01:09:53,700
say, wow, we didn't see that coming.

2057
01:09:53,920 --> 01:09:58,340
Well, Neville Chamberlain should have saw it coming

2058
01:09:58,340 --> 01:09:59,320
and he didn't.

2059
01:09:59,620 --> 01:10:00,920
He screws up the punchline.

2060
01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:02,580
But what he's trying to say here is

2061
01:10:02,580 --> 01:10:05,320
Neville Chamberlain famous for his appeasement.

2062
01:10:06,220 --> 01:10:08,200
And let's just take it easy.

2063
01:10:08,260 --> 01:10:09,580
Let's do a deal with Hitler.

2064
01:10:10,040 --> 01:10:11,700
This is what he's trying to compare him

2065
01:10:11,700 --> 01:10:11,800
to.

2066
01:10:11,840 --> 01:10:12,800
And he blows the punchline.

2067
01:10:12,960 --> 01:10:13,960
And we don't want to be in the

2068
01:10:13,960 --> 01:10:14,420
punchline.

2069
01:10:14,540 --> 01:10:14,940
That's funny.

2070
01:10:15,100 --> 01:10:16,680
Yeah, he can't even pronounce Neville.

2071
01:10:16,680 --> 01:10:20,420
Neville Chamberlain should have saw it coming and

2072
01:10:20,420 --> 01:10:21,100
he didn't.

2073
01:10:21,420 --> 01:10:22,700
And we don't want to be in that

2074
01:10:22,700 --> 01:10:23,200
position.

2075
01:10:23,740 --> 01:10:27,740
So wise up, everybody, because it's obvious what's

2076
01:10:27,740 --> 01:10:28,580
happening here.

2077
01:10:29,080 --> 01:10:30,640
This is an outrage.

2078
01:10:30,740 --> 01:10:31,340
It's an outrage.

2079
01:10:31,840 --> 01:10:32,840
No, it's not.

2080
01:10:33,360 --> 01:10:35,100
What Lemon did is an outrage.

2081
01:10:35,320 --> 01:10:39,620
And this has nothing, nothing to do with

2082
01:10:39,620 --> 01:10:41,440
what you don't hear is, you know, they're

2083
01:10:41,440 --> 01:10:43,600
they're rousting the wrong people.

2084
01:10:43,600 --> 01:10:45,440
No, no, it's just about Trump.

2085
01:10:46,320 --> 01:10:49,900
Twenty twenty six Republicans get him out when

2086
01:10:49,900 --> 01:10:53,720
we're back in power, said Scott, Professor Scott.

2087
01:10:54,200 --> 01:10:58,120
Yeah, there will be Nuremberg trials.

2088
01:10:59,780 --> 01:11:02,500
People are crazy, crazy.

2089
01:11:03,960 --> 01:11:04,520
Yeah.

2090
01:11:06,180 --> 01:11:07,320
Let me see if I have anything I

2091
01:11:07,320 --> 01:11:07,960
actually had.

2092
01:11:08,060 --> 01:11:09,540
I think that's why I have one more.

2093
01:11:09,600 --> 01:11:12,240
I didn't get anything on George Stephanopoulos clip

2094
01:11:12,240 --> 01:11:15,300
is worth it with the A.G. Todd,

2095
01:11:15,560 --> 01:11:16,920
Todd Epstein Blanchett.

2096
01:11:17,080 --> 01:11:17,900
I also want to ask you about the

2097
01:11:17,900 --> 01:11:19,420
situation in Minnesota just this week.

2098
01:11:19,740 --> 01:11:21,380
Don Lemon was arrested.

2099
01:11:21,520 --> 01:11:23,120
The journalist Don Lemon was arrested along with

2100
01:11:23,120 --> 01:11:24,020
another journalist.

2101
01:11:24,400 --> 01:11:24,860
Wait, wait, wait.

2102
01:11:25,000 --> 01:11:25,840
Yeah, I got that.

2103
01:11:26,120 --> 01:11:29,700
Stephanopoulos wouldn't wouldn't piss against Don Lemon until

2104
01:11:29,700 --> 01:11:30,240
today.

2105
01:11:30,900 --> 01:11:33,160
He would have called Don Lemon a newsreader

2106
01:11:33,160 --> 01:11:33,760
himself.

2107
01:11:34,340 --> 01:11:35,320
Yeah, he would have anymore.

2108
01:11:35,540 --> 01:11:36,340
A douchebag.

2109
01:11:36,800 --> 01:11:39,160
Now, as I ordered journalist Don Lemon, I

2110
01:11:39,160 --> 01:11:40,280
also want to ask you about the situation

2111
01:11:40,280 --> 01:11:41,500
in Minnesota just this week.

2112
01:11:41,820 --> 01:11:43,460
Don Lemon was arrested.

2113
01:11:43,600 --> 01:11:45,200
The journalist Don Lemon was arrested along with

2114
01:11:45,200 --> 01:11:47,960
another independent journalist.

2115
01:11:48,460 --> 01:11:51,880
And he was this was despite the fact

2116
01:11:51,880 --> 01:11:53,580
that a magistrate judge in an appeals court

2117
01:11:53,580 --> 01:11:55,320
refused to approve the request.

2118
01:11:55,860 --> 01:11:57,700
And the chief federal district judge, Patrick Schultz,

2119
01:11:57,700 --> 01:11:59,500
wrote that there was no event, no evidence

2120
01:11:59,500 --> 01:12:03,060
that Mr. Lemon any criminal behavior or conspired

2121
01:12:03,060 --> 01:12:03,600
to do so.

2122
01:12:03,640 --> 01:12:05,920
So when do you believe that Mr. Lemon

2123
01:12:05,920 --> 01:12:07,740
crossed the line from reporting on what was

2124
01:12:07,740 --> 01:12:09,420
going on to criminal activity?

2125
01:12:10,400 --> 01:12:12,440
Conveniently missing from what you just showed, George,

2126
01:12:12,500 --> 01:12:14,380
is the appellate court and a judge on

2127
01:12:14,380 --> 01:12:16,320
the appellate court who said just a few

2128
01:12:16,320 --> 01:12:18,580
days later there was clearly probable cause and

2129
01:12:18,580 --> 01:12:20,040
it wasn't even a close question.

2130
01:12:20,640 --> 01:12:22,100
So and by the way, a grand jury,

2131
01:12:22,420 --> 01:12:23,940
which is what our system has set up

2132
01:12:23,940 --> 01:12:26,820
to determine whether probable cause exists, concluded that

2133
01:12:26,820 --> 01:12:27,900
there was probable cause.

2134
01:12:28,180 --> 01:12:29,540
That indictment is now public.

2135
01:12:29,700 --> 01:12:31,820
Everybody in this country can pull it up

2136
01:12:31,820 --> 01:12:32,660
and read for themselves.

2137
01:12:32,900 --> 01:12:33,160
I read it.

2138
01:12:33,320 --> 01:12:35,200
See what the grand jury found that Mr.

2139
01:12:35,300 --> 01:12:35,900
Lemon did.

2140
01:12:36,260 --> 01:12:37,940
I'm not going to comment on the charges

2141
01:12:37,940 --> 01:12:39,660
specifically because it's not appropriate.

2142
01:12:40,060 --> 01:12:42,100
What's interesting that that we talk about the

2143
01:12:42,100 --> 01:12:42,920
first member, right?

2144
01:12:43,220 --> 01:12:44,680
You have a right of freedom of religion,

2145
01:12:44,760 --> 01:12:47,900
which is just as important as we have.

2146
01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:49,980
And this is the deputy attorney general.

2147
01:12:50,580 --> 01:12:52,320
You have the right of freedom of religion.

2148
01:12:52,420 --> 01:12:55,040
No, you have a natural right of freedom

2149
01:12:55,040 --> 01:12:55,560
of religion.

2150
01:12:55,640 --> 01:12:57,340
The government can't make a law against.

2151
01:12:57,560 --> 01:12:59,620
This is the number two guy in justice.

2152
01:12:59,920 --> 01:13:01,640
These people are all sick.

2153
01:13:02,420 --> 01:13:03,160
They suck.

2154
01:13:03,320 --> 01:13:05,780
It's not appropriate, but it's interesting that we

2155
01:13:05,780 --> 01:13:07,200
talk about the first member, right?

2156
01:13:07,420 --> 01:13:09,020
You have a right of freedom of religion,

2157
01:13:09,480 --> 01:13:11,340
which is just as important as any other

2158
01:13:11,340 --> 01:13:12,220
right that we have.

2159
01:13:12,580 --> 01:13:15,220
And George, I don't know if you've watched

2160
01:13:15,220 --> 01:13:17,340
the videos or read the indictment about what

2161
01:13:17,340 --> 01:13:19,060
it's alleged that Mr. Lemon did.

2162
01:13:19,320 --> 01:13:21,300
But if anybody in this country thinks that

2163
01:13:21,300 --> 01:13:24,260
that is, quote, independent journalism, I would like

2164
01:13:24,260 --> 01:13:25,440
to have a conversation with you.

2165
01:13:25,440 --> 01:13:27,580
He's obviously has a very good lawyer.

2166
01:13:27,760 --> 01:13:30,000
He can raise defenses in court to the

2167
01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:30,900
extent he wants to.

2168
01:13:31,300 --> 01:13:33,600
But nobody in this country should feel comfortable

2169
01:13:33,600 --> 01:13:37,560
storming into a church while it's ongoing and

2170
01:13:37,560 --> 01:13:39,880
disrupting that church service and thinking that we're

2171
01:13:39,880 --> 01:13:41,760
just going to stand by and let that

2172
01:13:41,760 --> 01:13:44,200
happen because there is a statute that does

2173
01:13:44,200 --> 01:13:45,300
not allow that to happen.

2174
01:13:45,560 --> 01:13:47,280
It doesn't matter if you happen to be

2175
01:13:47,280 --> 01:13:49,380
a former CNN journalist.

2176
01:13:49,620 --> 01:13:50,920
It doesn't matter if you're a writer.

2177
01:13:51,260 --> 01:13:52,860
It doesn't matter if you think you're peacefully

2178
01:13:52,860 --> 01:13:53,440
protesting.

2179
01:13:53,720 --> 01:13:55,640
You are not allowed to do that.

2180
01:13:56,120 --> 01:13:56,220
Okay.

2181
01:13:56,240 --> 01:13:58,860
Instead of saying face act, he kind of

2182
01:13:58,860 --> 01:14:00,460
weasels it in at the end there.

2183
01:14:01,140 --> 01:14:03,140
But it's just I'm a broken record.

2184
01:14:03,480 --> 01:14:07,720
I'm just sick of how people treat the

2185
01:14:07,720 --> 01:14:10,040
Constitution and the Bill of Rights as if

2186
01:14:10,040 --> 01:14:11,640
the government gave us something.

2187
01:14:13,440 --> 01:14:14,660
Yeah, that is the problem.

2188
01:14:14,720 --> 01:14:15,540
They didn't give us.

2189
01:14:15,780 --> 01:14:18,140
The idea is that they didn't give us

2190
01:14:18,140 --> 01:14:18,680
anything.

2191
01:14:18,680 --> 01:14:21,500
They are prohibited from taking things away.

2192
01:14:21,960 --> 01:14:22,100
Yes.

2193
01:14:23,800 --> 01:14:25,600
And I think this will be called the

2194
01:14:25,600 --> 01:14:26,740
lemon test in the future.

2195
01:14:27,440 --> 01:14:29,160
I think there already was a lemon test,

2196
01:14:29,300 --> 01:14:29,500
wasn't there?

2197
01:14:29,540 --> 01:14:31,680
Isn't there something called for cars?

2198
01:14:31,860 --> 01:14:33,280
I think it has to do with cars.

2199
01:14:34,240 --> 01:14:35,360
The lemon test.

2200
01:14:35,480 --> 01:14:36,240
No, no, no.

2201
01:14:38,100 --> 01:14:39,920
The lemon has to do with fragrance.

2202
01:14:40,300 --> 01:14:41,600
No, the lemon test is there.

2203
01:14:41,700 --> 01:14:43,500
The lemon test was I knew that I

2204
01:14:43,500 --> 01:14:48,240
was right about this was, in fact, this

2205
01:14:48,240 --> 01:14:50,300
is kind of meta when you think about

2206
01:14:50,300 --> 01:14:50,420
it.

2207
01:14:50,480 --> 01:14:51,640
Let me at least ask this.

2208
01:14:51,900 --> 01:14:53,380
Let me ask the robot here for a

2209
01:14:53,380 --> 01:14:53,560
second.

2210
01:14:54,140 --> 01:14:56,260
Give me a brief synopsis of the lemon

2211
01:14:56,260 --> 01:14:56,780
test.

2212
01:14:59,000 --> 01:15:01,920
The lemon test is a judicial standard used

2213
01:15:01,920 --> 01:15:03,980
by the U.S. Supreme Court to determine

2214
01:15:03,980 --> 01:15:06,880
if a law or government action violates the

2215
01:15:06,880 --> 01:15:08,640
establishment clause of the Constitution.

2216
01:15:09,120 --> 01:15:10,440
It has three parts.

2217
01:15:10,440 --> 01:15:13,840
The action must have a secular legislative purpose,

2218
01:15:14,400 --> 01:15:18,300
must not primarily or significantly advance or inhibit

2219
01:15:18,300 --> 01:15:21,880
religion, and must not foster an excessive government

2220
01:15:21,880 --> 01:15:23,260
entanglement with religion.

2221
01:15:23,780 --> 01:15:24,780
This is kind of meta.

2222
01:15:24,980 --> 01:15:25,940
You get Don Lemon.

2223
01:15:26,160 --> 01:15:27,060
Yeah, that's funny.

2224
01:15:27,180 --> 01:15:27,860
Isn't that interesting?

2225
01:15:27,960 --> 01:15:28,720
Very meta.

2226
01:15:28,940 --> 01:15:29,240
Yeah.

2227
01:15:29,520 --> 01:15:29,800
Hmm.

2228
01:15:30,200 --> 01:15:31,800
We'll have the lemon test about the lemon

2229
01:15:31,800 --> 01:15:32,220
test.

2230
01:15:32,940 --> 01:15:34,560
Anyway, I'm just disappointed.

2231
01:15:34,760 --> 01:15:35,220
I'm disappointed.

2232
01:15:35,540 --> 01:15:37,200
That's the one cool thing we have in

2233
01:15:37,200 --> 01:15:38,600
America is our Constitution.

2234
01:15:38,760 --> 01:15:39,600
We've got the Bill of Rights.

2235
01:15:39,880 --> 01:15:42,300
And even the school children are just incorrectly

2236
01:15:42,300 --> 01:15:45,000
taught and instructed as to how this works.

2237
01:15:45,100 --> 01:15:45,520
They don't know.

2238
01:15:45,560 --> 01:15:46,560
No wonder we're in trouble.

2239
01:15:46,840 --> 01:15:47,300
No wonder.

2240
01:15:48,700 --> 01:15:49,320
We're in trouble, man.

2241
01:15:49,520 --> 01:15:50,020
That's the idea.

2242
01:15:50,960 --> 01:15:51,400
Yes.

2243
01:15:51,620 --> 01:15:51,980
It's the idea.

2244
01:15:52,080 --> 01:15:53,260
You don't want to teach these kids about

2245
01:15:53,260 --> 01:15:53,560
anything.

2246
01:15:53,660 --> 01:15:55,020
It's obviously a conspiracy.

2247
01:15:55,460 --> 01:15:56,500
Make them dumb.

2248
01:15:57,180 --> 01:15:57,620
Exactly.

2249
01:15:57,840 --> 01:15:58,560
Make them dumb.

2250
01:15:58,960 --> 01:15:59,100
Yeah.

2251
01:15:59,480 --> 01:16:03,800
And we now have our second generation, which,

2252
01:16:04,060 --> 01:16:05,880
according to you in the newsletter, is because

2253
01:16:05,880 --> 01:16:07,100
they're crazy cat ladies.

2254
01:16:07,820 --> 01:16:08,420
Hey, I have a clip.

2255
01:16:09,620 --> 01:16:11,960
Was it toxoplasmicity?

2256
01:16:12,100 --> 01:16:13,300
No, toxoplasm.

2257
01:16:13,420 --> 01:16:14,060
What's the...

2258
01:16:14,060 --> 01:16:17,040
Well, when you have the condition, it's called

2259
01:16:17,040 --> 01:16:18,600
toxoplasmosis.

2260
01:16:18,660 --> 01:16:19,900
Yes, toxoplasmosis.

2261
01:16:19,900 --> 01:16:21,500
But it's caused by bacteria.

2262
01:16:21,820 --> 01:16:24,200
And they found that new research indicates, and

2263
01:16:24,200 --> 01:16:27,760
this is interesting because in the newsletter, I

2264
01:16:27,760 --> 01:16:29,500
pointed out that we never used to have

2265
01:16:29,500 --> 01:16:30,340
house cats.

2266
01:16:31,020 --> 01:16:33,880
Before 1920, the idea of a house cat,

2267
01:16:33,880 --> 01:16:35,420
a cat in the house...

2268
01:16:35,420 --> 01:16:36,380
Was disgusting.

2269
01:16:36,500 --> 01:16:38,660
And toxoplasmosis comes from cat poop.

2270
01:16:39,380 --> 01:16:41,840
And 30% of the American public seems

2271
01:16:41,840 --> 01:16:43,900
to have incidents of it.

2272
01:16:44,180 --> 01:16:46,440
And it turns out, the research now says,

2273
01:16:46,580 --> 01:16:48,060
I said turns out too many times.

2274
01:16:48,200 --> 01:16:51,340
And the research now says that it may

2275
01:16:51,340 --> 01:16:54,720
cause anger issues, possibly schizophrenia.

2276
01:16:55,560 --> 01:17:00,080
It may be responsible for all schizophrenia, for

2277
01:17:00,080 --> 01:17:00,700
all we know.

2278
01:17:01,160 --> 01:17:03,720
But it's becoming an issue, and it's no

2279
01:17:03,720 --> 01:17:05,620
coincidence that the liberal...

2280
01:17:05,620 --> 01:17:07,700
Everyone's bitching and moaning about the liberal white

2281
01:17:07,700 --> 01:17:08,060
ladies.

2282
01:17:08,200 --> 01:17:09,660
Oh, there's liberal white ladies.

2283
01:17:10,160 --> 01:17:12,060
And they're all cat ladies, and they all

2284
01:17:12,060 --> 01:17:16,000
have lots of cats, and they have toxoplasmosis.

2285
01:17:16,040 --> 01:17:16,880
They all have it.

2286
01:17:17,340 --> 01:17:19,600
More and more, studies are hinting that our

2287
01:17:19,600 --> 01:17:22,180
brains might not be completely our own.

2288
01:17:22,580 --> 01:17:26,640
The parasites Toxoplasma gondii, Toxo for short, may

2289
01:17:26,640 --> 01:17:30,000
be changing human behavior, perhaps even making us

2290
01:17:30,000 --> 01:17:31,620
angrier and more aggressive.

2291
01:17:32,260 --> 01:17:34,900
Toxo is one of those frightening parasites capable

2292
01:17:34,900 --> 01:17:36,760
of controlling its hosts.

2293
01:17:37,260 --> 01:17:39,540
It reproduces in the stomachs of cats, and

2294
01:17:39,540 --> 01:17:42,340
it's always trying to get back inside one.

2295
01:17:42,640 --> 01:17:45,380
So when an animal, usually a mouse or

2296
01:17:45,380 --> 01:17:48,920
rat, becomes infected through contact with cat poop,

2297
01:17:49,240 --> 01:17:51,700
the parasite gets into the rodent's brain and

2298
01:17:51,700 --> 01:17:53,220
literally rewires it.

2299
01:17:53,660 --> 01:17:55,960
Basically, it makes its host fall in love

2300
01:17:55,960 --> 01:17:58,280
with cats, so it'll go find one and

2301
01:17:58,280 --> 01:17:58,840
get eaten.

2302
01:17:59,280 --> 01:18:02,000
Humans can contract the parasite too, through eating

2303
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:05,760
unwashed vegetables or undercooked meat, and obviously through

2304
01:18:05,760 --> 01:18:06,480
cat poop.

2305
01:18:06,760 --> 01:18:09,100
But while it can pose problems for pregnant

2306
01:18:09,100 --> 01:18:12,180
women or people with weakened immune systems, it's

2307
01:18:12,180 --> 01:18:14,480
generally not considered a threat to human health.

2308
01:18:14,780 --> 01:18:18,300
That's lucky, because Toxo is incredibly common.

2309
01:18:18,700 --> 01:18:20,760
Around a third of people in the world

2310
01:18:20,760 --> 01:18:22,880
and more than one in five in the

2311
01:18:22,880 --> 01:18:25,380
U.S. are infected, and the vast majority

2312
01:18:25,380 --> 01:18:27,180
never suffer any ill effects.

2313
01:18:27,600 --> 01:18:29,260
At least, that's what we thought.

2314
01:18:29,580 --> 01:18:32,000
Over the past decade, studies have linked Toxo

2315
01:18:32,000 --> 01:18:35,760
to higher rates of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression,

2316
01:18:36,280 --> 01:18:40,700
suicide attempts, risk-taking, impulsiveness, and now aggression.

2317
01:18:41,020 --> 01:18:43,100
A recent study found people with a parasite

2318
01:18:43,100 --> 01:18:46,360
score higher on anger and aggression tests, and

2319
01:18:46,360 --> 01:18:49,000
people with anger disorders are twice as likely

2320
01:18:49,000 --> 01:18:51,460
to have the parasite than you'd expect from

2321
01:18:51,460 --> 01:18:52,200
chance alone.

2322
01:18:53,080 --> 01:18:54,780
Well, this is a good clip.

2323
01:18:54,860 --> 01:18:55,800
Where'd you get that from?

2324
01:18:58,480 --> 01:18:59,000
Scripts.

2325
01:18:59,580 --> 01:19:03,100
So, I didn't realize it was one in

2326
01:19:03,100 --> 01:19:06,160
five, but I did look up some research,

2327
01:19:06,340 --> 01:19:08,300
and I found that there was an increase

2328
01:19:08,300 --> 01:19:11,880
for the first time in decades of Toxo,

2329
01:19:12,240 --> 01:19:15,020
I'm just going to call it Toxo, during

2330
01:19:15,020 --> 01:19:15,980
the lockdowns.

2331
01:19:16,920 --> 01:19:19,000
Everybody was inside with their cat and their

2332
01:19:19,000 --> 01:19:21,900
cat poop, and it kind of puts an

2333
01:19:21,900 --> 01:19:25,080
extra bent on this idea that it's okay

2334
01:19:25,080 --> 01:19:27,160
to send your kids to school dressed as

2335
01:19:27,160 --> 01:19:28,500
a cat with a litter box.

2336
01:19:30,020 --> 01:19:32,900
This is highly concerning.

2337
01:19:34,040 --> 01:19:34,940
Highly concerning.

2338
01:19:35,820 --> 01:19:38,200
And I emailed you when you sent me

2339
01:19:38,200 --> 01:19:39,880
the draft, I said, I'm sticking with Satan,

2340
01:19:40,140 --> 01:19:42,200
and you're like, is there a difference between

2341
01:19:42,200 --> 01:19:43,520
cats and Satan?

2342
01:19:43,800 --> 01:19:44,380
Good line.

2343
01:19:46,540 --> 01:19:48,140
It's all so bad.

2344
01:19:49,440 --> 01:19:51,120
Now, there's a lot more at play, but

2345
01:19:51,120 --> 01:19:52,440
the Toxo can't be helping.

2346
01:19:53,440 --> 01:19:53,880
No.

2347
01:19:54,300 --> 01:19:55,220
It cannot be helping.

2348
01:19:55,280 --> 01:19:57,080
And these are cat ladies.

2349
01:19:57,460 --> 01:19:59,720
You see these ranting women, I like to

2350
01:19:59,720 --> 01:20:02,200
play the TikTokers, that are, some of them

2351
01:20:02,200 --> 01:20:04,640
are completely insane, and they're yelling and screaming,

2352
01:20:05,080 --> 01:20:06,940
and you see the cat in the background,

2353
01:20:07,380 --> 01:20:11,000
or the cat making noise, but sometimes the

2354
01:20:11,000 --> 01:20:12,600
cat walks right in front of the camera.

2355
01:20:13,160 --> 01:20:15,020
I mean, these are cat ladies, and it's

2356
01:20:15,020 --> 01:20:18,220
just, I'm telling you, before 1920, there was

2357
01:20:18,220 --> 01:20:20,460
no such thing as a house cat.

2358
01:20:21,260 --> 01:20:23,360
People did not have cats in their houses.

2359
01:20:23,720 --> 01:20:25,360
Tina does not like cats.

2360
01:20:26,500 --> 01:20:28,060
Well, she probably doesn't have Toxo.

2361
01:20:28,520 --> 01:20:29,740
No, of course not.

2362
01:20:30,340 --> 01:20:32,780
If she did, if you have Toxo, you

2363
01:20:32,780 --> 01:20:33,640
like cats.

2364
01:20:33,820 --> 01:20:34,000
Yeah.

2365
01:20:34,160 --> 01:20:36,160
Howard Stern, there's your prime example.

2366
01:20:36,940 --> 01:20:44,100
His wife, his second wife, I guess, I

2367
01:20:44,100 --> 01:20:45,520
think she...

2368
01:20:45,520 --> 01:20:46,060
Cat lady.

2369
01:20:46,440 --> 01:20:49,080
Well, I think she saves cats, and they

2370
01:20:49,080 --> 01:20:49,840
sometimes have...

2371
01:20:49,840 --> 01:20:51,160
Yeah, she's a cat rescuer.

2372
01:20:51,220 --> 01:20:52,640
They have 10 or 20 cats.

2373
01:20:52,640 --> 01:20:55,360
At the time when he got together with

2374
01:20:55,360 --> 01:20:58,400
her is the time he started to switch

2375
01:20:58,400 --> 01:21:00,700
around, and he's been hanging around with the

2376
01:21:00,700 --> 01:21:03,220
cats too, and they're probably loaded with Toxo,

2377
01:21:03,220 --> 01:21:04,980
and he got it, and now all of

2378
01:21:04,980 --> 01:21:05,820
a sudden, Howard Stern...

2379
01:21:05,820 --> 01:21:07,660
How did Howard Stern become such a different

2380
01:21:07,660 --> 01:21:08,080
person?

2381
01:21:08,180 --> 01:21:11,580
He did switch just 180 degrees.

2382
01:21:12,160 --> 01:21:12,440
Yeah.

2383
01:21:13,680 --> 01:21:14,680
Overnight, boom.

2384
01:21:14,780 --> 01:21:16,200
He went from hating the man to loving

2385
01:21:16,200 --> 01:21:17,140
Bruce Springsteen.

2386
01:21:17,520 --> 01:21:20,860
Bruce Springsteen, another Toxo victim.

2387
01:21:21,060 --> 01:21:21,940
I think so.

2388
01:21:22,100 --> 01:21:24,560
That's just going to be a new theory

2389
01:21:24,560 --> 01:21:26,760
for the show, much like North Sea Nexus,

2390
01:21:27,320 --> 01:21:30,940
Toxo complex, and we'll just label them Toxo.

2391
01:21:32,820 --> 01:21:33,000
Yeah.

2392
01:21:33,360 --> 01:21:35,280
Yeah, I think so.

2393
01:21:35,600 --> 01:21:38,680
I'm not insincere with this thesis.

2394
01:21:39,580 --> 01:21:43,540
No, and I take your thesi very, very

2395
01:21:43,540 --> 01:21:44,580
seriously.

2396
01:21:46,580 --> 01:21:47,440
Thesis, thesis.

2397
01:21:47,580 --> 01:21:50,500
Your thesis, thesis, I take it very, very

2398
01:21:50,500 --> 01:21:52,780
seriously, because you are more often, you are

2399
01:21:52,780 --> 01:21:55,140
right than wrong, and you nailed the Don

2400
01:21:55,140 --> 01:21:55,800
Lemon arrest.

2401
01:21:55,880 --> 01:21:56,560
What was the other one?

2402
01:21:56,560 --> 01:21:58,180
Oh, you know what else you had?

2403
01:21:58,320 --> 01:22:00,180
Well, I think we both agreed on this.

2404
01:22:00,940 --> 01:22:04,900
A jury has awarded a detransitioner $2 million

2405
01:22:04,900 --> 01:22:11,100
in historic medical malpractice suits, including her psychologist

2406
01:22:11,100 --> 01:22:12,600
and plastic surgeon.

2407
01:22:13,320 --> 01:22:13,980
Good.

2408
01:22:14,180 --> 01:22:15,640
For a double mastectomy.

2409
01:22:16,560 --> 01:22:17,000
Yeah.

2410
01:22:17,360 --> 01:22:20,920
And so, yeah, no kidding, but that's the,

2411
01:22:21,640 --> 01:22:22,960
that toothpaste...

2412
01:22:22,960 --> 01:22:23,980
That's the beginning of the end.

2413
01:22:23,980 --> 01:22:26,440
Yes, that toothpaste won't go back into the

2414
01:22:26,440 --> 01:22:27,220
tube.

2415
01:22:27,300 --> 01:22:29,520
I have a clip that has another beginning

2416
01:22:29,520 --> 01:22:30,160
of an end.

2417
01:22:30,280 --> 01:22:30,560
Okay.

2418
01:22:31,100 --> 01:22:32,980
And this is something which brings to mind

2419
01:22:32,980 --> 01:22:34,300
another issue.

2420
01:22:34,460 --> 01:22:36,580
This is the Seattle lawsuit, which is worth

2421
01:22:36,580 --> 01:22:37,260
noting.

2422
01:22:37,580 --> 01:22:37,940
Okay.

2423
01:22:38,500 --> 01:22:41,100
A major victory just came down in court

2424
01:22:41,100 --> 01:22:43,160
for the family of a teenager who was

2425
01:22:43,160 --> 01:22:45,880
shot and killed in Seattle's CHOP zone in

2426
01:22:45,880 --> 01:22:46,400
2020.

2427
01:22:47,040 --> 01:22:49,820
A jury just awarded $30 million to the

2428
01:22:49,820 --> 01:22:52,680
family of Antonio Mays Jr. Good evening.

2429
01:22:52,800 --> 01:22:53,460
I'm Molly Shen.

2430
01:22:53,460 --> 01:22:54,420
And I'm Preston Phillips.

2431
01:22:54,520 --> 01:22:56,360
The verdict holds the city of Seattle liable

2432
01:22:56,360 --> 01:22:59,140
for dangerous conditions at the protest zone, which

2433
01:22:59,140 --> 01:23:01,220
was allowed to occupy parts of Seattle for

2434
01:23:01,220 --> 01:23:01,720
weeks.

2435
01:23:02,100 --> 01:23:03,560
Come with Jeremy Harris is live this evening

2436
01:23:03,560 --> 01:23:04,660
at the King County Courthouse.

2437
01:23:04,720 --> 01:23:06,640
And Jeremy, you were there as that verdict

2438
01:23:06,640 --> 01:23:07,180
was read.

2439
01:23:07,400 --> 01:23:09,300
Preston and Molly, it was certainly an emotional

2440
01:23:09,300 --> 01:23:11,800
moment for Antonio Mays Sr. This is the

2441
01:23:11,800 --> 01:23:13,960
end of a five-year journey to hold

2442
01:23:13,960 --> 01:23:16,420
the city of Seattle accountable for what happened

2443
01:23:16,420 --> 01:23:18,220
to his son at the CHOP zone.

2444
01:23:18,320 --> 01:23:20,180
The lawsuit alleged that the city of Seattle

2445
01:23:20,180 --> 01:23:23,500
not only allowed CHOP to exist, but encouraged

2446
01:23:23,500 --> 01:23:25,440
people to go there and then failed to

2447
01:23:25,440 --> 01:23:26,080
protect them.

2448
01:23:26,360 --> 01:23:28,760
After weeks of deliberating, a jury in King

2449
01:23:28,760 --> 01:23:31,820
County delivered a decisive verdict, holding the city

2450
01:23:31,820 --> 01:23:34,520
of Seattle liable for the death of Antonio

2451
01:23:34,520 --> 01:23:37,080
Mays Jr. and ordering the city to pay

2452
01:23:37,080 --> 01:23:40,400
$30 million in damages to his father, Antonio

2453
01:23:40,400 --> 01:23:42,540
Sr. Justice was served today.

2454
01:23:42,740 --> 01:23:44,960
Evan Oshan represents Mays' family.

2455
01:23:45,140 --> 01:23:46,520
How significant is this verdict?

2456
01:23:46,760 --> 01:23:48,060
And why does it matter so much to

2457
01:23:48,060 --> 01:23:48,460
the family?

2458
01:23:48,460 --> 01:23:50,560
Well, I think it sends a message, and

2459
01:23:50,560 --> 01:23:54,000
I think the city is accountable.

2460
01:23:54,360 --> 01:23:55,240
They're held accountable.

2461
01:23:55,700 --> 01:23:58,460
The lawsuit stems from this June 2020 shooting

2462
01:23:58,460 --> 01:24:01,300
in the Capitol Hill occupied protest zone, or

2463
01:24:01,300 --> 01:24:01,740
CHOP.

2464
01:24:01,980 --> 01:24:04,300
Several blocks of the city were taken over

2465
01:24:04,300 --> 01:24:07,240
by protesters during the Black Lives Matter movement.

2466
01:24:07,720 --> 01:24:10,080
Seattle police were ordered to abandon the East

2467
01:24:10,080 --> 01:24:13,180
Precinct as CHOP organizers held control of the

2468
01:24:13,180 --> 01:24:13,600
area.

2469
01:24:14,060 --> 01:24:16,200
Antonio Mays Jr. had come to CHOP from

2470
01:24:16,200 --> 01:24:18,660
LA when he and his friend Robert West

2471
01:24:18,660 --> 01:24:21,060
were both shot while driving a jeep near

2472
01:24:21,060 --> 01:24:22,280
Cal Anderson Park.

2473
01:24:22,820 --> 01:24:25,020
At the time, police were prohibited from entering

2474
01:24:25,020 --> 01:24:27,240
CHOP, and there was a major delay in

2475
01:24:27,240 --> 01:24:29,760
getting medical care to Mays, who died after

2476
01:24:29,760 --> 01:24:32,060
being taken to the hospital by civilian CHOP

2477
01:24:32,060 --> 01:24:32,540
medics.

2478
01:24:32,920 --> 01:24:35,000
The city claimed it was not liable for

2479
01:24:35,000 --> 01:24:37,200
the actions of the shooters and had not

2480
01:24:37,200 --> 01:24:40,620
failed in its responsibility to provide emergency response,

2481
01:24:40,720 --> 01:24:42,380
but the jury didn't agree.

2482
01:24:44,900 --> 01:24:46,760
$30 million bucks, this is going to happen

2483
01:24:46,760 --> 01:24:47,760
to Minneapolis.

2484
01:24:48,800 --> 01:24:52,480
Those two wrongful deaths of Pretty and Good

2485
01:24:52,480 --> 01:24:55,040
are going to be attributed to the management

2486
01:24:55,040 --> 01:24:57,480
of the city because they didn't put police

2487
01:24:57,480 --> 01:24:58,020
around there.

2488
01:24:58,080 --> 01:24:59,680
They could have arrested that guy for kicking

2489
01:24:59,680 --> 01:25:01,120
out the taillight, for example.

2490
01:25:01,880 --> 01:25:03,220
And this is going to start happening.

2491
01:25:03,220 --> 01:25:05,200
This is going to start happening in sanctuary

2492
01:25:05,200 --> 01:25:06,000
cities.

2493
01:25:06,500 --> 01:25:08,300
And this kind of lawsuit is going to

2494
01:25:08,300 --> 01:25:09,040
start happening everywhere.

2495
01:25:09,140 --> 01:25:10,320
This is a great precedent.

2496
01:25:10,320 --> 01:25:12,360
Now, the one little thing that kind of

2497
01:25:12,360 --> 01:25:14,880
irks me about it is it costs, it's

2498
01:25:14,880 --> 01:25:17,320
not just who's paying this $30 million, it's

2499
01:25:17,320 --> 01:25:18,060
the taxpayers.

2500
01:25:18,400 --> 01:25:21,880
I think that the city government, the members

2501
01:25:21,880 --> 01:25:24,620
of the city government should be held accountable

2502
01:25:24,620 --> 01:25:27,820
and liable for this money, as at least

2503
01:25:27,820 --> 01:25:30,620
part of it, in the same way that

2504
01:25:32,100 --> 01:25:35,060
board members of a public corporation are held

2505
01:25:35,060 --> 01:25:37,380
liable for the actions of the corporation, which

2506
01:25:37,380 --> 01:25:38,140
does happen.

2507
01:25:38,140 --> 01:25:40,140
But they have precedent from years ago.

2508
01:25:40,220 --> 01:25:41,840
I don't see any reason this shouldn't happen

2509
01:25:41,840 --> 01:25:42,740
to city councils.

2510
01:25:43,280 --> 01:25:46,600
Right, but you have DNO insurance for that.

2511
01:25:47,260 --> 01:25:47,780
Yeah, you do.

2512
01:25:47,840 --> 01:25:49,080
And they're going to have to get insurance

2513
01:25:49,080 --> 01:25:50,060
for these guys too.

2514
01:25:51,320 --> 01:25:52,600
So if you're going to be a city

2515
01:25:52,600 --> 01:25:54,980
council member, you got to pay to be

2516
01:25:54,980 --> 01:26:01,280
indemnified against lawsuits because these $30 million lawsuits

2517
01:26:01,280 --> 01:26:04,360
for wrongful deaths are going to start cropping

2518
01:26:04,360 --> 01:26:07,280
up in sanctuary cities run by Democrats all

2519
01:26:07,280 --> 01:26:08,160
over the country.

2520
01:26:08,380 --> 01:26:10,620
It's not going to be, you know, like

2521
01:26:10,620 --> 01:26:12,500
overnight, but you can see the precedent.

2522
01:26:12,780 --> 01:26:14,400
Boom, now we can move ahead.

2523
01:26:15,020 --> 01:26:16,360
Did you see that Pritzker was in the

2524
01:26:16,360 --> 01:26:17,320
Epstein files too?

2525
01:26:20,090 --> 01:26:20,890
No, I did not.

2526
01:26:21,230 --> 01:26:25,470
Yeah, it was something, I'm paraphrasing, like, hey,

2527
01:26:25,610 --> 01:26:27,150
come into town, maybe we can have some

2528
01:26:27,150 --> 01:26:27,570
dinner.

2529
01:26:27,890 --> 01:26:28,950
Let's reconnect.

2530
01:26:29,450 --> 01:26:31,610
And by the way, Sunday, I'm having a

2531
01:26:31,610 --> 01:26:32,390
dinner with Colbert.

2532
01:26:33,690 --> 01:26:35,530
Okay, says enough.

2533
01:26:37,010 --> 01:26:37,450
Colbert.

2534
01:26:37,450 --> 01:26:39,090
The common man, Mr. Colbert.

2535
01:26:42,120 --> 01:26:42,460
Did you?

2536
01:26:42,680 --> 01:26:43,700
No, I missed that one.

2537
01:26:43,860 --> 01:26:46,380
Did you hear the latest about the protesters

2538
01:26:46,380 --> 01:26:47,600
and their signal chats?

2539
01:26:48,580 --> 01:26:49,020
No.

2540
01:26:49,560 --> 01:26:51,720
Because they've been infiltrated, obviously.

2541
01:26:52,120 --> 01:26:53,580
Yeah, there's a number of people that have

2542
01:26:53,580 --> 01:26:53,780
done that.

2543
01:26:53,840 --> 01:26:54,960
One girl in particular.

2544
01:26:55,180 --> 01:26:55,360
Yeah.

2545
01:26:55,800 --> 01:26:58,240
So this clip, I think eight people sent

2546
01:26:58,240 --> 01:26:58,780
this to me.

2547
01:26:59,300 --> 01:27:01,760
This is one of these smart toxo-affected

2548
01:27:01,760 --> 01:27:05,980
women who realizes this is a real problem

2549
01:27:05,980 --> 01:27:08,980
for the organization of these organized protests.

2550
01:27:08,980 --> 01:27:10,520
But she has a solution.

2551
01:27:11,080 --> 01:27:12,940
Hey, guys, if you didn't hear, signal group

2552
01:27:12,940 --> 01:27:15,900
chats, rapid response group chats in Seattle got

2553
01:27:15,900 --> 01:27:16,520
infiltrated.

2554
01:27:16,720 --> 01:27:17,980
So did the ones in Minnesota.

2555
01:27:18,300 --> 01:27:20,840
We should probably start using ham radios.

2556
01:27:21,020 --> 01:27:23,260
I'm going to link a ham radio from

2557
01:27:23,260 --> 01:27:25,180
a solid company that won't break the bank.

2558
01:27:25,420 --> 01:27:25,940
Here you go.

2559
01:27:26,260 --> 01:27:28,340
Let's set up some phone trees and figure

2560
01:27:28,340 --> 01:27:29,360
out some codes.

2561
01:27:29,780 --> 01:27:30,540
Get old school.

2562
01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:33,100
She's holding up a bow thing.

2563
01:27:35,740 --> 01:27:38,560
Yeah, because that's completely secure.

2564
01:27:38,560 --> 01:27:40,680
And illegal.

2565
01:27:40,680 --> 01:27:41,620
Yeah, who are they kidding?

2566
01:27:41,740 --> 01:27:43,340
They obviously don't know anything.

2567
01:27:44,140 --> 01:27:47,520
Illegal without a license, which, you know, the

2568
01:27:47,520 --> 01:27:51,200
fines for operating ham equipment without a license,

2569
01:27:51,340 --> 01:27:52,540
that can be pretty severe.

2570
01:27:53,820 --> 01:27:54,760
They can be up to- You know

2571
01:27:54,760 --> 01:27:55,220
what they are?

2572
01:27:55,540 --> 01:27:57,160
I've heard $15,000.

2573
01:27:57,460 --> 01:27:58,780
It depends on what you're doing.

2574
01:27:59,300 --> 01:27:59,700
I'm sure of it.

2575
01:28:00,340 --> 01:28:01,860
People out there, get a license.

2576
01:28:02,140 --> 01:28:02,540
Definitely.

2577
01:28:02,580 --> 01:28:03,380
They're easy to come by.

2578
01:28:03,460 --> 01:28:04,200
That reminds me, I got to renew mine.

2579
01:28:04,200 --> 01:28:05,700
A couple people at the meetup talking about

2580
01:28:05,700 --> 01:28:06,480
getting their license.

2581
01:28:06,600 --> 01:28:07,540
I got to renew mine.

2582
01:28:07,540 --> 01:28:08,720
I got to do that.

2583
01:28:08,800 --> 01:28:09,460
It's been 10 years.

2584
01:28:09,680 --> 01:28:09,920
Oh, yeah.

2585
01:28:10,100 --> 01:28:10,480
10 years.

2586
01:28:10,720 --> 01:28:12,400
There's a grace period though, right?

2587
01:28:13,300 --> 01:28:14,460
Uh, I think you have a year.

2588
01:28:14,760 --> 01:28:15,000
Okay.

2589
01:28:15,280 --> 01:28:15,520
Yeah.

2590
01:28:15,660 --> 01:28:17,260
It's a real long grace period.

2591
01:28:17,300 --> 01:28:18,180
It's time for me to renew.

2592
01:28:18,420 --> 01:28:18,560
Yeah.

2593
01:28:18,740 --> 01:28:19,360
Just do it.

2594
01:28:19,420 --> 01:28:20,320
It's pretty simple.

2595
01:28:20,440 --> 01:28:20,600
Yeah.

2596
01:28:20,780 --> 01:28:21,260
I got it.

2597
01:28:21,300 --> 01:28:22,060
Let me put that down.

2598
01:28:22,420 --> 01:28:23,380
Renew ham light.

2599
01:28:23,460 --> 01:28:24,700
I'll put this right on my list.

2600
01:28:24,920 --> 01:28:26,460
I think it costs 25 bucks or something.

2601
01:28:26,640 --> 01:28:27,660
No, I think it went up.

2602
01:28:29,180 --> 01:28:30,800
There was, I heard all the old hands.

2603
01:28:30,960 --> 01:28:33,620
Hey, man, they're charging an arm and a

2604
01:28:33,620 --> 01:28:34,120
leg.

2605
01:28:34,900 --> 01:28:37,100
I'm on 80 meters.

2606
01:28:38,260 --> 01:28:40,820
They're charging me 75 bucks to renew my

2607
01:28:40,820 --> 01:28:41,260
license.

2608
01:28:41,680 --> 01:28:43,820
Let me turn my beam, throw some kilowatts

2609
01:28:43,820 --> 01:28:44,500
your way.

2610
01:28:48,600 --> 01:28:49,040
Yeah.

2611
01:28:49,140 --> 01:28:49,380
Yeah.

2612
01:28:49,420 --> 01:28:50,920
Ham license is a good thing to have.

2613
01:28:51,780 --> 01:28:52,920
It's a good thing to have.

2614
01:28:53,300 --> 01:28:57,160
I was, uh, I just stumbled across this

2615
01:28:57,160 --> 01:28:58,640
clip of Charles Asher.

2616
01:28:59,260 --> 01:29:02,240
You know, Charles Asher name rings a bell.

2617
01:29:02,400 --> 01:29:02,800
Yeah.

2618
01:29:02,800 --> 01:29:04,680
I think he's like some kind of, uh,

2619
01:29:04,680 --> 01:29:05,840
let me look him up here for a

2620
01:29:05,840 --> 01:29:06,080
second.

2621
01:29:06,080 --> 01:29:09,280
Canadian intellectual founder.

2622
01:29:09,520 --> 01:29:10,820
Oh, he's a anti-Jew guy.

2623
01:29:11,300 --> 01:29:14,080
Anti, uh, anti, anti, anti, anti-Semite guy.

2624
01:29:15,220 --> 01:29:16,940
Um, so take that into account.

2625
01:29:17,960 --> 01:29:20,700
Uh, but an, uh, elite, but he was

2626
01:29:20,700 --> 01:29:26,460
talking on a podcast, uh, YouTube show about

2627
01:29:26,460 --> 01:29:27,060
Qatar.

2628
01:29:27,520 --> 01:29:31,780
And, and, you know, just listening to what

2629
01:29:31,780 --> 01:29:33,720
he had to say about Qatar and how

2630
01:29:33,720 --> 01:29:36,760
the Muslim brotherhood, which we're pretty sure was

2631
01:29:36,760 --> 01:29:39,480
a British invention that may have gotten a

2632
01:29:39,480 --> 01:29:40,580
little bit out of hand.

2633
01:29:41,000 --> 01:29:42,940
They can't always not have, or may not

2634
01:29:42,940 --> 01:29:46,740
have, um, kind of put some things into

2635
01:29:46,740 --> 01:29:49,380
perspective, certainly when it comes to the pilgrim.

2636
01:29:49,800 --> 01:29:54,360
Hamas murdered American citizens and British citizens on

2637
01:29:54,360 --> 01:29:56,160
October the 7th, they kidnapped them.

2638
01:29:56,420 --> 01:29:59,980
And amazingly, some of the best universities, the

2639
01:29:59,980 --> 01:30:02,700
Ivy leagues in the United States, Oxbridge in

2640
01:30:02,700 --> 01:30:05,160
the United Kingdom, the University of London are

2641
01:30:05,160 --> 01:30:07,660
turning out some of the brightest, best educated

2642
01:30:07,660 --> 01:30:11,000
young people, young citizens of democracies.

2643
01:30:11,280 --> 01:30:12,620
And they're supporting Hamas.

2644
01:30:13,000 --> 01:30:17,480
They're supporting anti-democratic, vulgar terrorists who adhere

2645
01:30:17,480 --> 01:30:19,740
to a culture of death, who want to

2646
01:30:19,740 --> 01:30:22,460
destroy democracy, who want us to destroy Britain

2647
01:30:22,460 --> 01:30:25,740
and France and Italy and Germany and Canada

2648
01:30:25,740 --> 01:30:27,660
and Australia and the United States.

2649
01:30:27,660 --> 01:30:31,040
And young people are being inculcated in this

2650
01:30:31,040 --> 01:30:32,760
sort of red green alliance of the radical

2651
01:30:32,760 --> 01:30:35,780
left, which has dominated many of our best

2652
01:30:35,780 --> 01:30:36,380
universities.

2653
01:30:37,240 --> 01:30:40,100
And because the radical left wants to get

2654
01:30:40,100 --> 01:30:43,180
rid of Western hegemony, the Islamists who want

2655
01:30:43,180 --> 01:30:47,220
to destroy Western hegemony have this bizarre common

2656
01:30:47,220 --> 01:30:47,600
cause.

2657
01:30:47,700 --> 01:30:49,220
We call it the red green alliance or

2658
01:30:49,220 --> 01:30:53,320
intellectuals influenced by Muslim brotherhood money are teaching

2659
01:30:53,320 --> 01:30:57,540
now the second generation of Western citizens to

2660
01:30:57,540 --> 01:30:59,640
destroy their own country, their own culture.

2661
01:31:00,060 --> 01:31:00,960
It's not all talk.

2662
01:31:01,040 --> 01:31:02,840
So this is education.

2663
01:31:03,160 --> 01:31:03,960
And it is true.

2664
01:31:04,120 --> 01:31:06,760
Qatar funds a lot of universities.

2665
01:31:06,960 --> 01:31:07,880
This second part to this.

2666
01:31:07,980 --> 01:31:08,820
Well, think about it.

2667
01:31:08,860 --> 01:31:11,200
If we take a step back, Qatar is

2668
01:31:11,200 --> 01:31:11,640
a country.

2669
01:31:11,740 --> 01:31:13,140
It's a tiny country in the Middle East.

2670
01:31:13,300 --> 01:31:15,480
It has less than 350,000 citizens.

2671
01:31:15,660 --> 01:31:16,740
So tiny country.

2672
01:31:16,840 --> 01:31:19,540
Qatar is giving more money to British education,

2673
01:31:19,800 --> 01:31:23,520
to Canadian education, higher education, to American universities

2674
01:31:23,520 --> 01:31:25,140
than any country in the world.

2675
01:31:25,360 --> 01:31:27,580
So why would this tiny, wealthy country give

2676
01:31:27,580 --> 01:31:30,800
so much money to Western democratic universities?

2677
01:31:31,160 --> 01:31:33,980
And it's to use soft power to to

2678
01:31:33,980 --> 01:31:34,980
influence it.

2679
01:31:35,200 --> 01:31:37,760
And the Qataris have a bayah.

2680
01:31:37,900 --> 01:31:40,460
In Islam, a bayah is a spiritual oath

2681
01:31:40,460 --> 01:31:41,760
to the Muslim Brotherhood.

2682
01:31:41,880 --> 01:31:45,500
The royal family of Qatar follows all the

2683
01:31:45,500 --> 01:31:48,460
religious edicts, rulings and fatwas of the Muslim

2684
01:31:48,460 --> 01:31:48,940
Brotherhood.

2685
01:31:48,940 --> 01:31:51,700
They basically represent the Brotherhood around the world.

2686
01:31:52,320 --> 01:31:54,580
And we estimate that the Qataris are using

2687
01:31:54,580 --> 01:31:57,820
up to one trillion dollars in assets to

2688
01:31:57,820 --> 01:31:59,900
use a soft power to buy favor in

2689
01:31:59,900 --> 01:32:03,940
universities, in our media, in our political leaders

2690
01:32:03,940 --> 01:32:06,760
to further their their goals and their agenda.

2691
01:32:07,240 --> 01:32:10,140
So Qatar is at the forefront of basically

2692
01:32:10,140 --> 01:32:12,520
representing the interests of the Brotherhood, which is

2693
01:32:12,520 --> 01:32:14,740
basically to destroy democratic countries.

2694
01:32:14,820 --> 01:32:16,100
So they're giving all this aid.

2695
01:32:16,100 --> 01:32:19,000
Naively, many people think they're benevolent and they're

2696
01:32:19,000 --> 01:32:21,440
doing wonderful work and funding our universities.

2697
01:32:22,060 --> 01:32:24,540
But essentially, they're changing the discourse in the

2698
01:32:24,540 --> 01:32:24,780
West.

2699
01:32:24,960 --> 01:32:26,820
So if we take a step back, Hamas,

2700
01:32:27,040 --> 01:32:28,940
which is the Palestinian chapter of the Muslim

2701
01:32:28,940 --> 01:32:31,820
Brotherhood, intent on destroying Israel and Western democratic

2702
01:32:31,820 --> 01:32:35,120
countries, Hamas, which is anti-Semitic.

2703
01:32:35,280 --> 01:32:36,800
But let's put that aside for a moment.

2704
01:32:36,940 --> 01:32:38,660
They're anti-democratic.

2705
01:32:39,080 --> 01:32:39,860
They're sexist.

2706
01:32:39,920 --> 01:32:42,080
They want to subjugate women, murder gay people

2707
01:32:42,080 --> 01:32:44,660
and do away with religious minority rights around

2708
01:32:44,660 --> 01:32:45,080
the world.

2709
01:32:45,080 --> 01:32:47,660
Yeah, this is the Red Green Alliance.

2710
01:32:48,020 --> 01:32:49,340
The Red Green Alliance.

2711
01:32:50,000 --> 01:32:51,640
And it makes me wonder, why is Tucker

2712
01:32:51,640 --> 01:32:52,700
buying a house there?

2713
01:32:53,140 --> 01:32:57,980
Why is Tucker over there doing seminars and

2714
01:32:57,980 --> 01:32:59,420
then he's going to buy a house over

2715
01:32:59,420 --> 01:32:59,600
there?

2716
01:32:59,620 --> 01:33:01,260
Or maybe he bought one already.

2717
01:33:01,420 --> 01:33:02,480
He says it's beautiful.

2718
01:33:02,720 --> 01:33:03,520
It's a beautiful country.

2719
01:33:04,020 --> 01:33:04,460
Bullcrap.

2720
01:33:05,140 --> 01:33:06,320
I've been in that area.

2721
01:33:06,600 --> 01:33:08,120
It's a whole place is just a big,

2722
01:33:08,200 --> 01:33:08,860
giant desert.

2723
01:33:09,080 --> 01:33:09,900
It's hot.

2724
01:33:10,660 --> 01:33:12,800
They have to, you can't even, they even,

2725
01:33:12,980 --> 01:33:15,120
the whole town, like in Dubai, for example,

2726
01:33:15,260 --> 01:33:18,900
the town shuts, shutters at noon.

2727
01:33:19,080 --> 01:33:19,560
They have to.

2728
01:33:19,640 --> 01:33:22,440
And then doesn't, can't, everything closes and you

2729
01:33:22,440 --> 01:33:24,380
can't go do anything until three.

2730
01:33:24,660 --> 01:33:25,660
Too hot, too hot.

2731
01:33:26,120 --> 01:33:28,340
Yeah, it's 120, 130.

2732
01:33:30,040 --> 01:33:30,480
Let's.

2733
01:33:30,860 --> 01:33:31,640
Good Hamas, though.

2734
01:33:31,740 --> 01:33:32,140
Good Hamas.

2735
01:33:32,260 --> 01:33:32,780
Great Hamas.

2736
01:33:32,860 --> 01:33:34,720
Let's stay in the region for a second.

2737
01:33:35,340 --> 01:33:39,220
Um, I keep coming so close, so close

2738
01:33:39,220 --> 01:33:41,260
with what I predicted the president would say.

2739
01:33:41,880 --> 01:33:43,060
Um, this is the latest.

2740
01:33:43,280 --> 01:33:44,540
Can you give us an update on where

2741
01:33:44,540 --> 01:33:46,260
you're thinking is right now with Iran?

2742
01:33:46,480 --> 01:33:48,040
If you are, or have made a final

2743
01:33:48,040 --> 01:33:49,120
decision on what you want to do?

2744
01:33:49,140 --> 01:33:50,840
I mean, I certainly can't tell you that,

2745
01:33:50,920 --> 01:33:53,820
but we do have very big, powerful ships

2746
01:33:53,820 --> 01:33:55,720
heading in that direction, as you know.

2747
01:33:56,640 --> 01:33:58,000
I can't tell you, you know.

2748
01:33:58,240 --> 01:33:58,640
Okay.

2749
01:33:58,920 --> 01:34:01,200
But I hope, I hope they negotiate something

2750
01:34:01,200 --> 01:34:02,120
that's acceptable.

2751
01:34:02,120 --> 01:34:05,020
So it's supposed to be big, beautiful ships,

2752
01:34:05,120 --> 01:34:06,520
but big, powerful ships.

2753
01:34:06,600 --> 01:34:07,700
I'm getting closer every day.

2754
01:34:08,120 --> 01:34:11,140
But this, this, we're missing some context here

2755
01:34:11,140 --> 01:34:13,440
because all of a sudden now it's like,

2756
01:34:13,700 --> 01:34:15,560
well, they got to do a deal.

2757
01:34:15,680 --> 01:34:16,640
We got to negotiate.

2758
01:34:17,080 --> 01:34:18,140
They are negotiating.

2759
01:34:18,180 --> 01:34:20,280
But what exactly are we negotiating?

2760
01:34:20,360 --> 01:34:22,540
It's a step back from the brink, at

2761
01:34:22,540 --> 01:34:23,400
least for now.

2762
01:34:23,900 --> 01:34:26,060
Amid the threats of a US armada taking

2763
01:34:26,060 --> 01:34:29,120
military action against Iran and Tehran's promise to

2764
01:34:29,120 --> 01:34:31,840
retaliate, both sides have confirmed they're in talks.

2765
01:34:33,040 --> 01:34:34,760
Contrary to the hype of the contrived media

2766
01:34:34,760 --> 01:34:38,160
war, structural arrangements for negotiations are progressing.

2767
01:34:39,740 --> 01:34:42,940
While Donald Trump also acknowledged discussions, he suggested

2768
01:34:42,940 --> 01:34:44,640
strikes were still possible.

2769
01:34:45,220 --> 01:34:47,560
Iran's president said a broader conflict would hurt

2770
01:34:47,560 --> 01:34:50,280
both Iran and the United States, a concern

2771
01:34:50,280 --> 01:34:51,300
echoed by analysts.

2772
01:34:52,420 --> 01:34:55,040
Trump can launch an attack and then immediately

2773
01:34:55,040 --> 01:34:57,220
post a tweet two hours later and say,

2774
01:34:57,340 --> 01:34:58,400
I finished the job.

2775
01:34:58,900 --> 01:35:01,520
No, this will definitely lead to an all

2776
01:35:01,520 --> 01:35:02,040
-out war.

2777
01:35:02,240 --> 01:35:04,800
It would harm the interests of many countries.

2778
01:35:06,660 --> 01:35:08,660
For many in the streets of Tehran, the

2779
01:35:08,660 --> 01:35:11,040
victims of a war will be ordinary Iranians.

2780
01:35:13,920 --> 01:35:16,940
In my opinion, there is no war that

2781
01:35:16,940 --> 01:35:18,220
is without consequences.

2782
01:35:20,080 --> 01:35:21,860
And I would say that the people who

2783
01:35:21,860 --> 01:35:24,100
lose the most in this are the people.

2784
01:35:26,540 --> 01:35:29,500
Regional actors have been engaging in diplomatic efforts

2785
01:35:29,500 --> 01:35:31,160
to prevent war between the two.

2786
01:35:31,760 --> 01:35:34,180
Qatari Premier Sheikh El-Tani, who also serves

2787
01:35:34,180 --> 01:35:36,400
as foreign minister, held talks in Iran on

2788
01:35:36,400 --> 01:35:39,100
Saturday to try to de-escalate tensions in

2789
01:35:39,100 --> 01:35:39,460
the area.

2790
01:35:39,480 --> 01:35:42,540
So the president is making it sound like

2791
01:35:42,540 --> 01:35:44,440
it's a nuclear deal, but I don't believe

2792
01:35:44,440 --> 01:35:44,760
that.

2793
01:35:44,840 --> 01:35:47,320
This has to be about Venezuelan oil or

2794
01:35:47,320 --> 01:35:47,940
something.

2795
01:35:48,480 --> 01:35:50,980
It has to be about oil and China.

2796
01:35:51,520 --> 01:35:52,680
Yeah, but it's not.

2797
01:35:52,680 --> 01:35:54,420
Oil and China has got to be the

2798
01:35:54,420 --> 01:35:54,840
solution.

2799
01:35:55,260 --> 01:35:57,680
And the beneficiary, by the way, of the

2800
01:35:57,680 --> 01:35:59,080
whole thing, once they get it straightened out,

2801
01:35:59,100 --> 01:36:01,180
I hope they do, is we can finally

2802
01:36:01,180 --> 01:36:03,560
get back to bringing in Iranian rugs.

2803
01:36:05,280 --> 01:36:06,800
Hey, there's lots of good stuff.

2804
01:36:07,480 --> 01:36:08,200
Macadamia nuts.

2805
01:36:09,180 --> 01:36:09,400
Aren't they?

2806
01:36:09,660 --> 01:36:10,440
Or isn't it the macadamia?

2807
01:36:10,440 --> 01:36:11,260
I think it's Hawaii.

2808
01:36:11,660 --> 01:36:13,360
Wait, maybe it's pistachios.

2809
01:36:13,740 --> 01:36:14,100
Pistachios?

2810
01:36:14,780 --> 01:36:16,120
Well, we get plenty of pistachios.

2811
01:36:16,140 --> 01:36:17,600
No, there's some kind of nut.

2812
01:36:17,900 --> 01:36:18,380
Oh, a second.

2813
01:36:18,580 --> 01:36:19,320
Well, the saffron.

2814
01:36:19,320 --> 01:36:21,300
They also have good saffron and they have

2815
01:36:21,300 --> 01:36:24,020
the best of the basmati rice.

2816
01:36:24,700 --> 01:36:27,400
Hey, robot, what kind of nuts is Iran

2817
01:36:27,400 --> 01:36:28,220
famous for?

2818
01:36:29,860 --> 01:36:33,600
Iran is particularly famous for its pistachios, which

2819
01:36:33,600 --> 01:36:35,040
are a major export.

2820
01:36:35,520 --> 01:36:37,740
They are also known for other nuts like

2821
01:36:37,740 --> 01:36:38,940
walnuts and almonds.

2822
01:36:39,180 --> 01:36:40,460
I told you, pistachios.

2823
01:36:40,600 --> 01:36:41,340
Yeah, it's a big deal.

2824
01:36:41,340 --> 01:36:42,200
Okay, well, you nailed it.

2825
01:36:42,340 --> 01:36:43,040
Yeah, pistachios.

2826
01:36:43,120 --> 01:36:44,220
Well, according to the robot.

2827
01:36:44,360 --> 01:36:45,580
The robot's been spot on.

2828
01:36:45,580 --> 01:36:47,720
The robot's been right more than we have

2829
01:36:47,720 --> 01:36:48,300
been today.

2830
01:36:48,300 --> 01:36:49,480
Speaking of robots.

2831
01:36:49,960 --> 01:36:50,660
Oh, man.

2832
01:36:51,360 --> 01:36:54,080
Have you been following this Open Claude?

2833
01:36:55,040 --> 01:36:56,520
A little bit.

2834
01:36:56,980 --> 01:36:59,780
The Malt, what do they call it?

2835
01:37:00,040 --> 01:37:01,780
The Malt Book.

2836
01:37:03,200 --> 01:37:05,480
So I installed this.

2837
01:37:06,360 --> 01:37:07,160
Yeah, I figured you would.

2838
01:37:07,220 --> 01:37:08,980
I didn't want to follow up myself.

2839
01:37:09,220 --> 01:37:10,060
I figured you'd be on it.

2840
01:37:10,140 --> 01:37:10,360
Okay.

2841
01:37:10,660 --> 01:37:11,280
This is your beat.

2842
01:37:11,400 --> 01:37:13,980
So I can tell everybody it's not worth

2843
01:37:13,980 --> 01:37:14,180
it.

2844
01:37:14,940 --> 01:37:17,860
In essence, what you're doing is installing Claude.

2845
01:37:17,860 --> 01:37:21,860
The Opus model 4.5 with a Telegram

2846
01:37:21,860 --> 01:37:23,120
wrapper and a Cron.

2847
01:37:23,200 --> 01:37:24,040
Cron jobs.

2848
01:37:25,240 --> 01:37:27,060
And it's so stupid.

2849
01:37:27,200 --> 01:37:28,660
I was expecting, oh, this is going to

2850
01:37:28,660 --> 01:37:29,300
be great.

2851
01:37:29,400 --> 01:37:31,780
All it does is eat up credits.

2852
01:37:31,800 --> 01:37:32,300
No, you weren't.

2853
01:37:32,640 --> 01:37:33,560
I kind of was.

2854
01:37:33,720 --> 01:37:35,840
I was like, okay, I like this idea.

2855
01:37:36,360 --> 01:37:37,760
I mean, what it proves is that people

2856
01:37:37,760 --> 01:37:43,020
are hungry for decentralized large language models doing

2857
01:37:43,020 --> 01:37:43,780
stuff for them.

2858
01:37:43,880 --> 01:37:44,960
Everybody wants a robot.

2859
01:37:45,160 --> 01:37:46,400
Everybody wants an agent.

2860
01:37:46,400 --> 01:37:48,340
But all this is doing, as far as

2861
01:37:48,340 --> 01:37:50,680
I can tell, is racking up bills for

2862
01:37:50,680 --> 01:37:52,140
the idiots who don't know what they're doing.

2863
01:37:52,220 --> 01:37:55,700
Installing these things on DigitalOcean and Linode.

2864
01:37:55,840 --> 01:37:57,040
Like, oh, I'll just set this up.

2865
01:37:57,960 --> 01:37:59,520
And then they give it access to their

2866
01:37:59,520 --> 01:38:00,060
email.

2867
01:38:01,720 --> 01:38:03,940
But I don't know how to secure some

2868
01:38:03,940 --> 01:38:05,000
kind of remote box.

2869
01:38:05,300 --> 01:38:09,480
So there's 16,000 of these instances have

2870
01:38:09,480 --> 01:38:10,320
been hacked already.

2871
01:38:10,460 --> 01:38:13,440
And people are, you know, get your API

2872
01:38:13,440 --> 01:38:15,660
keys and all kinds of other stuff.

2873
01:38:16,380 --> 01:38:20,560
And it's just another ad to make.

2874
01:38:20,860 --> 01:38:24,360
And then they have this social network, which

2875
01:38:24,360 --> 01:38:26,380
you can let your bot.

2876
01:38:26,580 --> 01:38:28,200
Everyone, oh, my bot's name is Henry.

2877
01:38:28,500 --> 01:38:28,740
Okay.

2878
01:38:29,500 --> 01:38:31,800
And then he can talk to other bots.

2879
01:38:32,380 --> 01:38:35,380
And it's all just Claude stuff talking to

2880
01:38:35,380 --> 01:38:35,880
Claude.

2881
01:38:36,640 --> 01:38:37,680
Racking up your bill.

2882
01:38:38,540 --> 01:38:40,220
And people, oh, this is it.

2883
01:38:40,480 --> 01:38:42,180
Before you know it, they're going to speak

2884
01:38:42,180 --> 01:38:43,600
in their secret code language.

2885
01:38:43,700 --> 01:38:44,600
And they're going to create that.

2886
01:38:44,600 --> 01:38:46,420
They're going to take over the world.

2887
01:38:46,520 --> 01:38:47,340
They took over the internet.

2888
01:38:48,140 --> 01:38:50,040
This was trained on Reddit.

2889
01:38:50,180 --> 01:38:51,620
Colossus, the forbidden project.

2890
01:38:52,420 --> 01:38:56,440
This was trained on Reddit data.

2891
01:38:56,540 --> 01:38:58,320
So no wonder it looks like Reddit.

2892
01:38:58,520 --> 01:39:00,480
But a bunch of retards is yapping at

2893
01:39:00,480 --> 01:39:01,340
each other all day.

2894
01:39:01,720 --> 01:39:02,740
It's crazy.

2895
01:39:03,640 --> 01:39:05,380
Do not get involved in this.

2896
01:39:05,480 --> 01:39:06,360
This is stupid.

2897
01:39:07,300 --> 01:39:07,780
Stupid.

2898
01:39:07,920 --> 01:39:10,720
And YouTube is already feeling the pain of

2899
01:39:10,720 --> 01:39:11,260
the slop.

2900
01:39:11,260 --> 01:39:14,860
The advertisers are now saying, hey, YouTube, clean

2901
01:39:14,860 --> 01:39:16,580
up your slop, or we're going to stop

2902
01:39:16,580 --> 01:39:17,300
advertising.

2903
01:39:18,080 --> 01:39:18,480
Oops.

2904
01:39:19,120 --> 01:39:20,100
This is where it starts.

2905
01:39:20,100 --> 01:39:21,820
I think there's something like a million a

2906
01:39:21,820 --> 01:39:22,680
day or something.

2907
01:39:22,860 --> 01:39:23,340
Two million.

2908
01:39:23,640 --> 01:39:23,880
Junk.

2909
01:39:24,020 --> 01:39:24,640
Two million.

2910
01:39:26,020 --> 01:39:26,520
But they can't.

2911
01:39:26,660 --> 01:39:27,160
And it's junk.

2912
01:39:27,320 --> 01:39:30,140
It's, you know, Fat JD doing calisthenics.

2913
01:39:30,260 --> 01:39:31,240
That's how bad it's gotten.

2914
01:39:31,280 --> 01:39:31,500
Right.

2915
01:39:31,580 --> 01:39:33,940
Well, the TV advertising, what group is it?

2916
01:39:33,980 --> 01:39:35,440
Video Advertising Bureau.

2917
01:39:38,020 --> 01:39:40,220
Includes NBCUniversal, ESPN, Sony Pictures.

2918
01:39:40,220 --> 01:39:41,700
They don't want this.

2919
01:39:41,880 --> 01:39:44,620
Say that, hey, we want our stuff being

2920
01:39:44,620 --> 01:39:45,100
promoted.

2921
01:39:45,260 --> 01:39:47,720
We want people to watch our expensive stuff.

2922
01:39:48,300 --> 01:39:50,680
And you're just rolling out ads on slop.

2923
01:39:51,440 --> 01:39:53,080
We're not going to, we're not going to

2924
01:39:53,080 --> 01:39:53,700
do it anymore.

2925
01:39:53,960 --> 01:39:55,660
I think YouTube, I think Google has a

2926
01:39:55,660 --> 01:39:56,520
problem with this.

2927
01:39:57,160 --> 01:39:59,680
Because on one hand, you can't be providing

2928
01:39:59,680 --> 01:40:02,480
the great tools to make the slop and

2929
01:40:02,480 --> 01:40:06,060
then not let people publish it or demonetize.

2930
01:40:06,060 --> 01:40:06,600
Yeah, that's it.

2931
01:40:07,000 --> 01:40:09,100
Yes, it's hypocritical, actually.

2932
01:40:09,100 --> 01:40:10,100
Catch 22.

2933
01:40:11,200 --> 01:40:11,680
Maybe.

2934
01:40:11,960 --> 01:40:12,720
Is it catch 22?

2935
01:40:12,960 --> 01:40:14,340
Or hypocritical, one of the two.

2936
01:40:14,340 --> 01:40:15,720
Maybe hypocritical is better.

2937
01:40:16,540 --> 01:40:17,720
I think it's a real problem.

2938
01:40:18,980 --> 01:40:20,760
And they still can't really do it with

2939
01:40:20,760 --> 01:40:21,620
podcasting.

2940
01:40:21,700 --> 01:40:23,300
Because we don't have algorithms.

2941
01:40:23,640 --> 01:40:24,200
It's beautiful.

2942
01:40:25,380 --> 01:40:26,440
Just stick with us, people.

2943
01:40:26,800 --> 01:40:27,500
Stick with us.

2944
01:40:28,000 --> 01:40:30,160
Yeah, we're the last bastion of reality.

2945
01:40:32,260 --> 01:40:34,140
Last bastion of reality.

2946
01:40:34,840 --> 01:40:35,840
Hang in there, people.

2947
01:40:36,040 --> 01:40:36,960
Hang in with us.

2948
01:40:38,000 --> 01:40:39,880
All right, what's this NATO stuff?

2949
01:40:40,060 --> 01:40:41,400
You want to do the NATO stuff here?

2950
01:40:41,580 --> 01:40:42,680
I can do the NATO stuff, or I

2951
01:40:42,680 --> 01:40:43,100
can do this.

2952
01:40:43,280 --> 01:40:45,180
I can do, yeah, let's do the NATO

2953
01:40:45,180 --> 01:40:45,520
stuff.

2954
01:40:45,600 --> 01:40:48,080
Although I have these NPR clips from these

2955
01:40:48,080 --> 01:40:51,000
correspondents trying to summarize the world's events over

2956
01:40:51,000 --> 01:40:51,100
the last year.

2957
01:40:51,100 --> 01:40:51,780
Oh, well, let's do that.

2958
01:40:51,860 --> 01:40:52,380
Let's do that.

2959
01:40:52,600 --> 01:40:52,800
Let's do that.

2960
01:40:52,800 --> 01:40:54,240
Yeah, I think it's, now they did, this

2961
01:40:54,240 --> 01:40:55,440
went on for about, this is about an

2962
01:40:55,440 --> 01:40:55,760
hour.

2963
01:40:55,900 --> 01:40:56,260
Oh, let's not do that.

2964
01:40:56,260 --> 01:40:57,340
And so I picked out three.

2965
01:40:57,500 --> 01:40:58,300
Let's not do that.

2966
01:40:58,660 --> 01:40:59,460
No, I don't, no, I didn't.

2967
01:40:59,540 --> 01:41:03,040
I picked out three, four short versions of

2968
01:41:03,040 --> 01:41:04,320
the ones I thought were interesting.

2969
01:41:04,340 --> 01:41:06,060
Because everybody had these things to say.

2970
01:41:06,060 --> 01:41:07,880
What's the premise of this hour-long show?

2971
01:41:08,620 --> 01:41:11,100
So they said, here's our correspondent that's been

2972
01:41:11,100 --> 01:41:13,200
living in China for the last year.

2973
01:41:13,300 --> 01:41:14,620
And so what do you think is going

2974
01:41:14,620 --> 01:41:17,520
on on the streets regarding the United States

2975
01:41:17,520 --> 01:41:18,700
and China and the world?

2976
01:41:18,780 --> 01:41:21,140
And how's things changed in your part of

2977
01:41:21,140 --> 01:41:22,940
the world and that you've noticed?

2978
01:41:23,320 --> 01:41:24,720
And you're living there.

2979
01:41:24,800 --> 01:41:27,260
These are the people, the correspondents that are,

2980
01:41:27,680 --> 01:41:30,040
you know, you get a gig, you're working

2981
01:41:30,040 --> 01:41:32,320
for NPR, but you're actually living in Beijing

2982
01:41:32,320 --> 01:41:34,460
and your day-to-day life is Beijing.

2983
01:41:34,960 --> 01:41:37,260
And so you actually do have some, some

2984
01:41:37,260 --> 01:41:38,680
observations to make.

2985
01:41:39,660 --> 01:41:42,960
And sorry, but wait, there's different ones here.

2986
01:41:43,100 --> 01:41:45,580
And I thought you queued up China.

2987
01:41:46,540 --> 01:41:48,380
I did queue up China, but that's not

2988
01:41:48,380 --> 01:41:50,060
the one that triggered me to do any

2989
01:41:50,060 --> 01:41:50,560
of this.

2990
01:41:50,740 --> 01:41:50,880
Okay.

2991
01:41:51,320 --> 01:41:56,000
It was actually the NPR year correspondent rap.

2992
01:41:56,140 --> 01:41:58,020
This is the, the Russia one was the,

2993
01:41:58,120 --> 01:41:59,620
I wouldn't have gotten China or any of

2994
01:41:59,620 --> 01:41:59,740
them.

2995
01:41:59,820 --> 01:42:01,480
And there's a lot more than I have

2996
01:42:01,480 --> 01:42:01,700
here.

2997
01:42:01,700 --> 01:42:03,300
But the Russia one is, as soon as

2998
01:42:03,300 --> 01:42:05,240
I heard the Russia one, I said, okay,

2999
01:42:05,420 --> 01:42:07,480
I should, we should, I should pit.

3000
01:42:07,700 --> 01:42:08,700
Let me get some clips.

3001
01:42:09,220 --> 01:42:11,240
And Charles Mains in Moscow, how has the

3002
01:42:11,240 --> 01:42:13,080
past year and these changes looked from your

3003
01:42:13,080 --> 01:42:13,400
patch?

3004
01:42:13,940 --> 01:42:16,380
No, it's interesting because, you know, when Trump

3005
01:42:16,380 --> 01:42:18,820
came to power in 2016, there were all

3006
01:42:18,820 --> 01:42:20,680
these big hopes that he might, you know,

3007
01:42:20,780 --> 01:42:22,580
revive these relations with Russia.

3008
01:42:23,000 --> 01:42:25,760
And the line here was that Trump failed

3009
01:42:25,760 --> 01:42:28,720
only because of the deep state or entrenched

3010
01:42:28,720 --> 01:42:30,500
interests in Washington wouldn't let him.

3011
01:42:30,500 --> 01:42:32,300
But now what we see is Trump really

3012
01:42:32,300 --> 01:42:33,280
kind of unleashed.

3013
01:42:33,860 --> 01:42:35,760
And so there's been this roller coaster year

3014
01:42:35,760 --> 01:42:37,960
here where initially there were these big hopes

3015
01:42:37,960 --> 01:42:40,120
of ending the war in Ukraine, largely on

3016
01:42:40,120 --> 01:42:40,940
Russia's terms.

3017
01:42:41,480 --> 01:42:44,360
But meanwhile, you know, distracted by Ukraine, Russia

3018
01:42:44,360 --> 01:42:46,340
suffered all these foreign policy setbacks.

3019
01:42:46,720 --> 01:42:49,380
Venezuela, of course, being one, it's a Russia's

3020
01:42:49,380 --> 01:42:52,020
ally and Maduro was Putin's ally.

3021
01:42:52,200 --> 01:42:54,240
But also in Syria, in Iran, what we're

3022
01:42:54,240 --> 01:42:56,640
seeing happening right now, there's this kind of

3023
01:42:56,640 --> 01:42:59,320
line here that Russia can't protect its friends.

3024
01:42:59,880 --> 01:43:02,820
And this humiliation was really amplified by the

3025
01:43:02,820 --> 01:43:03,380
success.

3026
01:43:03,480 --> 01:43:05,400
I'll put that in quotes right now of

3027
01:43:05,400 --> 01:43:08,280
Trump's special operation in Venezuela, because, you know,

3028
01:43:08,320 --> 01:43:09,920
what Trump was able to do by taking

3029
01:43:09,920 --> 01:43:11,580
Maduro, this is what a lot of Russians

3030
01:43:11,580 --> 01:43:14,300
thought they maybe should have done in Ukraine

3031
01:43:14,300 --> 01:43:15,540
with Volodymyr Zelensky.

3032
01:43:17,000 --> 01:43:20,320
Yeah, I thought that was interesting that, yeah,

3033
01:43:20,400 --> 01:43:20,760
they should.

3034
01:43:20,840 --> 01:43:22,420
Why didn't they grab Zelensky?

3035
01:43:23,120 --> 01:43:24,260
He's a troublemaker.

3036
01:43:24,260 --> 01:43:25,560
He's got nothing.

3037
01:43:26,040 --> 01:43:27,360
And he's great for sales.

3038
01:43:29,500 --> 01:43:32,640
So that was intriguing enough that China won.

3039
01:43:32,780 --> 01:43:35,400
I decide this is probably one of the

3040
01:43:35,400 --> 01:43:36,160
better of the group.

3041
01:43:36,900 --> 01:43:38,020
There's only three I noticed.

3042
01:43:38,600 --> 01:43:39,340
Yeah, there's China.

3043
01:43:39,700 --> 01:43:40,540
Jennifer, welcome.

3044
01:43:40,720 --> 01:43:42,620
You're NPR's new China correspondent.

3045
01:43:42,860 --> 01:43:44,800
How do leaders and people in your region

3046
01:43:44,800 --> 01:43:46,180
see the changes the past year?

3047
01:43:46,920 --> 01:43:49,360
Well, to set the scene, Chinese officials have

3048
01:43:49,360 --> 01:43:53,540
always painted America as a hegemon, a bully,

3049
01:43:53,840 --> 01:43:56,400
a paper tiger, and a hypocrite.

3050
01:43:56,780 --> 01:43:58,860
So if we look at trade, for example,

3051
01:43:58,860 --> 01:44:00,520
which has been the biggest sticking point between

3052
01:44:00,520 --> 01:44:02,200
the U.S. and China this past year,

3053
01:44:03,280 --> 01:44:05,080
you know, China's rise over the past four

3054
01:44:05,080 --> 01:44:08,000
decades has been largely thanks to American consumers

3055
01:44:08,000 --> 01:44:11,840
buying Chinese goods and also American businesses coming

3056
01:44:11,840 --> 01:44:14,820
in to invest, setting business standards and passing

3057
01:44:14,820 --> 01:44:15,660
on their know-how.

3058
01:44:16,160 --> 01:44:17,780
And for the U.S., it seemed like

3059
01:44:17,780 --> 01:44:18,960
it was going fine.

3060
01:44:19,600 --> 01:44:23,180
When China was manufacturing American-designed iPhones, for

3061
01:44:23,180 --> 01:44:26,080
example, or cheap shoes, not so fine now

3062
01:44:26,080 --> 01:44:28,520
that China is leading in, you know, future

3063
01:44:28,520 --> 01:44:28,940
tech.

3064
01:44:29,320 --> 01:44:31,700
And suddenly they say Americans are calling it,

3065
01:44:31,780 --> 01:44:34,940
you know, China shock 2.0. So they're

3066
01:44:34,940 --> 01:44:37,920
always consistently pointing this out, especially in the

3067
01:44:37,920 --> 01:44:38,900
Chinese state media.

3068
01:44:39,020 --> 01:44:42,980
So there was recently this music video generated

3069
01:44:42,980 --> 01:44:46,180
by AI that was mocking U.S. hypocrisy

3070
01:44:46,180 --> 01:44:48,220
reposted by the Chinese embassy in the U

3071
01:44:48,220 --> 01:44:49,060
.S. on X.

3072
01:44:49,340 --> 01:44:52,560
It's a it's a cartoon American eagle dressed

3073
01:44:52,560 --> 01:44:55,260
in a suit representing America singing.

3074
01:44:55,980 --> 01:44:57,960
And he says, you know, when we lead,

3075
01:44:58,000 --> 01:45:00,420
meaning when America is leading, it's called progress.

3076
01:45:00,420 --> 01:45:03,640
But when China does it, oh, that's overcapacity.

3077
01:45:03,840 --> 01:45:04,500
Yeah, let's hear it.

3078
01:45:10,180 --> 01:45:13,470
For people on the ground, I think there's

3079
01:45:13,470 --> 01:45:15,610
been a bit of mixture of both amusement

3080
01:45:15,610 --> 01:45:18,210
and maybe worry that this world is kind

3081
01:45:18,210 --> 01:45:19,170
of feeling more surreal.

3082
01:45:19,370 --> 01:45:20,950
There's a return to the law of the

3083
01:45:20,950 --> 01:45:21,270
jungle.

3084
01:45:21,890 --> 01:45:23,670
You know, America just does what it wants.

3085
01:45:24,050 --> 01:45:25,470
Basically, it's a free for all love.

3086
01:45:25,590 --> 01:45:26,870
Law of the jungle is what they keep

3087
01:45:26,870 --> 01:45:27,130
saying.

3088
01:45:27,410 --> 01:45:29,590
Same time, though, I would say on a

3089
01:45:29,590 --> 01:45:31,530
human level, the people that I talk to

3090
01:45:31,530 --> 01:45:33,830
quite a lot, if they can afford it,

3091
01:45:33,830 --> 01:45:36,110
they still really want to send their children

3092
01:45:36,110 --> 01:45:38,610
or they themselves want to study in the

3093
01:45:38,610 --> 01:45:40,290
U.S. for college.

3094
01:45:41,730 --> 01:45:43,470
She ends every report with.

3095
01:45:43,470 --> 01:45:43,870
Hmm.

3096
01:45:44,870 --> 01:45:46,650
Yeah, I know it's annoying.

3097
01:45:47,430 --> 01:45:49,190
Well, that video is dumb.

3098
01:45:50,590 --> 01:45:51,910
Yeah, I fortunately did.

3099
01:45:52,090 --> 01:45:53,110
You couldn't hear it either.

3100
01:45:53,450 --> 01:45:54,950
Yeah, but you know, of course not, because

3101
01:45:54,950 --> 01:45:56,950
all of these A.I. so most of

3102
01:45:56,950 --> 01:45:58,630
the A.I. songs, you have to have

3103
01:45:58,630 --> 01:45:59,310
captions.

3104
01:45:59,430 --> 01:46:00,930
Otherwise, you don't know what they're singing.

3105
01:46:01,070 --> 01:46:01,790
It's so bad.

3106
01:46:02,030 --> 01:46:02,550
I agree.

3107
01:46:03,030 --> 01:46:04,670
And so the last clip of the three

3108
01:46:04,670 --> 01:46:08,310
that I selected is kind of another interesting

3109
01:46:08,310 --> 01:46:11,650
analysis of this refers to El Salvador and

3110
01:46:11,650 --> 01:46:15,150
an underlying trend that might be accurate in

3111
01:46:15,150 --> 01:46:17,010
the way this guy this guy sees things

3112
01:46:17,010 --> 01:46:18,630
a little differently than everybody else.

3113
01:46:18,710 --> 01:46:20,730
And I just thought this was kind of

3114
01:46:20,730 --> 01:46:22,630
an interesting take.

3115
01:46:23,190 --> 01:46:25,550
The backdrop of all of this that's happening

3116
01:46:25,550 --> 01:46:27,470
with the U.N., I feel is is

3117
01:46:27,470 --> 01:46:32,690
a very real disillusionment with not just democracy,

3118
01:46:32,690 --> 01:46:36,690
but with the big international institutions.

3119
01:46:36,690 --> 01:46:39,470
I think El Salvador is a perfect example.

3120
01:46:39,630 --> 01:46:39,730
Right.

3121
01:46:39,810 --> 01:46:43,470
They have elected a president, Nayib Bukele, who,

3122
01:46:43,630 --> 01:46:46,650
you know, has thrown tens of thousands of

3123
01:46:46,650 --> 01:46:49,070
people in jail without any due process.

3124
01:46:49,270 --> 01:46:52,630
And the Salvadorans are like, what do we

3125
01:46:52,630 --> 01:46:53,970
care about due process?

3126
01:46:54,390 --> 01:46:57,670
What has the international all these international human

3127
01:46:57,670 --> 01:46:58,230
rights group?

3128
01:46:58,470 --> 01:47:00,030
What have they gotten us?

3129
01:47:00,310 --> 01:47:00,510
Right.

3130
01:47:00,550 --> 01:47:02,450
We used to live in fear.

3131
01:47:02,590 --> 01:47:04,670
And now we live in security.

3132
01:47:04,670 --> 01:47:09,630
Like, screw all those international laws and, you

3133
01:47:09,630 --> 01:47:11,750
know, people trying to protect human rights.

3134
01:47:11,890 --> 01:47:12,010
Right.

3135
01:47:12,050 --> 01:47:15,030
And I think I think that argument has

3136
01:47:15,030 --> 01:47:17,830
won out in a lot of places, especially

3137
01:47:17,830 --> 01:47:20,290
in Latin America, where you have huge problems

3138
01:47:20,290 --> 01:47:20,890
of security.

3139
01:47:21,110 --> 01:47:21,250
Right.

3140
01:47:21,270 --> 01:47:22,210
People are being extorted.

3141
01:47:22,330 --> 01:47:22,950
They're being killed.

3142
01:47:23,010 --> 01:47:23,650
We're being kidnapped.

3143
01:47:23,650 --> 01:47:24,090
Right.

3144
01:47:24,190 --> 01:47:27,210
And they just want somebody to fix it.

3145
01:47:27,530 --> 01:47:30,230
And so I feel like the disillusionment with

3146
01:47:30,230 --> 01:47:33,950
with the institutions on the ground is kind

3147
01:47:33,950 --> 01:47:36,310
of maybe what's also playing out on the

3148
01:47:36,310 --> 01:47:37,010
world stage.

3149
01:47:37,770 --> 01:47:38,650
Well, that is interesting.

3150
01:47:38,870 --> 01:47:41,690
And El Salvador, from what I understand, I

3151
01:47:41,690 --> 01:47:43,530
know a lot of people who've been there.

3152
01:47:43,610 --> 01:47:46,050
I know people who are building homes there.

3153
01:47:46,350 --> 01:47:48,150
It's only a couple hours flight from Texas.

3154
01:47:49,030 --> 01:47:49,130
Yeah.

3155
01:47:49,210 --> 01:47:50,030
They love it.

3156
01:47:50,090 --> 01:47:52,870
They love Bukele, who's I think he's a

3157
01:47:52,870 --> 01:47:54,510
millennial millennial president.

3158
01:47:54,950 --> 01:47:55,190
Yeah.

3159
01:47:55,470 --> 01:47:56,570
And yeah, locked up.

3160
01:47:56,730 --> 01:47:58,470
I mean, everyone feared for their life.

3161
01:47:58,550 --> 01:48:00,010
It had the highest one of the highest

3162
01:48:00,010 --> 01:48:01,990
per capita murder rates.

3163
01:48:02,550 --> 01:48:02,730
Yeah.

3164
01:48:02,850 --> 01:48:03,610
And now there's nothing.

3165
01:48:03,610 --> 01:48:04,770
What do you do?

3166
01:48:04,890 --> 01:48:05,530
You go around.

3167
01:48:05,590 --> 01:48:06,250
You got a gang.

3168
01:48:06,330 --> 01:48:07,850
They all have tattoos saying I'm in this

3169
01:48:07,850 --> 01:48:08,210
gang.

3170
01:48:08,410 --> 01:48:09,150
Yeah, you're done.

3171
01:48:09,350 --> 01:48:09,970
No due process.

3172
01:48:10,130 --> 01:48:11,310
You pick them up, throw them in jail.

3173
01:48:12,430 --> 01:48:14,210
Well, this so this leads me into a

3174
01:48:14,210 --> 01:48:15,790
clip that I picked up about the U

3175
01:48:15,790 --> 01:48:19,030
.N., about one of these fantastic global institutions

3176
01:48:19,030 --> 01:48:23,090
who are on the brink of going out

3177
01:48:23,090 --> 01:48:23,550
of business.

3178
01:48:23,910 --> 01:48:27,570
United Nations is facing imminent financial collapse unless

3179
01:48:27,570 --> 01:48:28,610
changes are made.

3180
01:48:28,610 --> 01:48:30,710
That was the message from U.N. Secretary

3181
01:48:30,710 --> 01:48:33,770
General Antonio Guterres in a three page letter

3182
01:48:33,770 --> 01:48:36,790
he sent to all 193 member states.

3183
01:48:37,290 --> 01:48:39,250
The U.N. is running out of money

3184
01:48:39,250 --> 01:48:42,310
to pay bills like staff and vendors at

3185
01:48:42,310 --> 01:48:43,670
headquarters and elsewhere.

3186
01:48:44,630 --> 01:48:46,330
The reason is multifaceted.

3187
01:48:46,810 --> 01:48:49,130
About a quarter of member states do not

3188
01:48:49,130 --> 01:48:52,870
pay their annual assessed dues on time, making

3189
01:48:52,870 --> 01:48:55,390
it difficult for U.N. number crunchers to

3190
01:48:55,390 --> 01:48:55,690
budget.

3191
01:48:56,250 --> 01:48:59,110
Because of this, typically the U.N. starts

3192
01:48:59,110 --> 01:49:01,210
to run out of money by July every

3193
01:49:01,210 --> 01:49:03,930
year, but is able to pull funds from

3194
01:49:03,930 --> 01:49:07,330
reserves to cover operational expenses through the summer

3195
01:49:07,330 --> 01:49:09,630
until more money arrives.

3196
01:49:10,090 --> 01:49:12,870
This year, there are no reserves to draw

3197
01:49:12,870 --> 01:49:13,290
from.

3198
01:49:13,570 --> 01:49:14,650
It's not hyperbole.

3199
01:49:15,190 --> 01:49:19,330
The people who handle our finances simply look

3200
01:49:19,330 --> 01:49:19,990
at the numbers.

3201
01:49:19,990 --> 01:49:23,730
And over the years, we've had to scramble

3202
01:49:23,730 --> 01:49:27,270
and use whatever funds we have available to

3203
01:49:27,270 --> 01:49:28,430
keep our operations going.

3204
01:49:28,770 --> 01:49:31,290
Once our reserves have dwindled to this extent,

3205
01:49:31,630 --> 01:49:34,350
our ability to do that has been undercut.

3206
01:49:35,190 --> 01:49:37,610
When it comes to paying, it's now or

3207
01:49:37,610 --> 01:49:37,830
never.

3208
01:49:38,110 --> 01:49:40,510
We do not have the sort of cash

3209
01:49:40,510 --> 01:49:42,590
reserves and the sort of liquidity to keep

3210
01:49:42,590 --> 01:49:44,730
functioning as we've done in previous years.

3211
01:49:44,810 --> 01:49:46,670
And this is something that the secretary general

3212
01:49:46,670 --> 01:49:50,190
has warned with increasing strength each year.

3213
01:49:50,550 --> 01:49:53,470
The United States, the largest funder, currently has

3214
01:49:53,470 --> 01:49:55,690
arrears to the U.N. of about $2

3215
01:49:55,690 --> 01:49:57,030
.1 billion.

3216
01:49:58,470 --> 01:50:00,210
Yeah, I know how that meeting went.

3217
01:50:00,550 --> 01:50:03,070
Scott, Scott, screw those guys.

3218
01:50:04,190 --> 01:50:05,990
They screwed me with the escalator.

3219
01:50:06,230 --> 01:50:07,590
They turned off my prompter.

3220
01:50:07,870 --> 01:50:08,650
Don't pay the bill.

3221
01:50:09,570 --> 01:50:11,130
Yeah, that's what I do.

3222
01:50:11,310 --> 01:50:12,690
That's exactly what happened.

3223
01:50:12,690 --> 01:50:15,650
And there's this strange rumor going around that

3224
01:50:16,830 --> 01:50:19,030
supposedly the U.N. is going to move

3225
01:50:19,030 --> 01:50:20,770
its headquarters to Qatar.

3226
01:50:21,210 --> 01:50:22,030
Have you heard this?

3227
01:50:22,790 --> 01:50:24,750
Well, that's perfect, if true.

3228
01:50:25,250 --> 01:50:26,950
No, I have not heard it, but it

3229
01:50:26,950 --> 01:50:28,030
makes it...

3230
01:50:28,030 --> 01:50:29,870
That's why Tucker needs a house.

3231
01:50:30,010 --> 01:50:30,670
There it is.

3232
01:50:30,710 --> 01:50:32,130
And with that, I'd like to thank you,

3233
01:50:32,190 --> 01:50:34,250
the man who put the sea in the

3234
01:50:34,250 --> 01:50:36,250
crustafarians in the morning to you.

3235
01:50:36,570 --> 01:50:38,390
Here is my friend on the other end,

3236
01:50:38,470 --> 01:50:40,990
the one, the only Mr. John C.

3237
01:50:41,250 --> 01:50:41,610
DeMora.

3238
01:50:44,330 --> 01:50:45,910
Good morning to you, Mr. Adam Curry.

3239
01:50:45,990 --> 01:50:47,730
DeMora, Chef Seawoods to the graphene in the

3240
01:50:47,730 --> 01:50:47,870
air.

3241
01:50:48,650 --> 01:50:50,470
Sun to the water and all the dames

3242
01:50:50,470 --> 01:50:51,330
and knights out there.

3243
01:50:51,390 --> 01:50:52,870
In the morning to the trolls in the

3244
01:50:52,870 --> 01:50:53,450
troll room.

3245
01:50:56,390 --> 01:50:59,630
All right, 1931, almost 2,000 trolls hanging

3246
01:50:59,630 --> 01:51:02,410
out, listening live at noagendastream.com.

3247
01:51:02,470 --> 01:51:03,350
We're happy you're here.

3248
01:51:03,490 --> 01:51:04,690
Thank you for being a part of our

3249
01:51:04,690 --> 01:51:05,290
little podcast.

3250
01:51:05,790 --> 01:51:07,850
We've been doing it for more than 18

3251
01:51:07,850 --> 01:51:09,290
years, and we do it as a public

3252
01:51:09,290 --> 01:51:10,870
service, and we give it all away.

3253
01:51:11,190 --> 01:51:12,870
We just put it right out there for

3254
01:51:12,870 --> 01:51:13,810
you to enjoy.

3255
01:51:14,330 --> 01:51:16,770
Best enjoyed on a modern podcast app, because

3256

01:51:18,490 --> 01:51:19,210

Go to podcastapps.com.

3261
01:51:24,750 --> 01:51:24,850
And?

3262
01:51:26,350 --> 01:51:28,410
Jane Fonda was married three times, and she

3263
01:51:28,410 --> 01:51:30,090
has a partner, Richard Perry, should be the

3264
01:51:30,090 --> 01:51:31,050
fourth person.

3265
01:51:31,390 --> 01:51:33,030
What does Richard Perry do?

3266
01:51:33,510 --> 01:51:34,730
Is he good looking?

3267
01:51:35,510 --> 01:51:37,070
I can click and find out.

3268
01:51:37,090 --> 01:51:37,870
Yeah, why don't you click?

3269
01:51:37,870 --> 01:51:40,710
Richard Perry was an American...

3270
01:51:40,710 --> 01:51:41,910
Wasn't he in Journey?

3271
01:51:42,230 --> 01:51:43,310
Record producer.

3272
01:51:43,670 --> 01:51:43,870
Steve Perry.

3273
01:51:44,150 --> 01:51:45,770
Record producer, musical career.

3274
01:51:46,050 --> 01:51:47,530
Richard Perry's a record producer?

3275
01:51:47,790 --> 01:51:49,130
Richard Van Perry.

3276
01:51:49,410 --> 01:51:50,190
Van Perry.

3277
01:51:50,410 --> 01:51:51,310
What does he produce?

3278
01:51:52,090 --> 01:51:52,550
I don't know.

3279
01:51:53,010 --> 01:51:54,030
Do you want me to look it up?

3280
01:51:54,590 --> 01:51:55,910
Yes, yes, please.

3281
01:51:56,270 --> 01:51:57,710
Okay, okay, Richard Van Perry, he's old.

3282
01:51:57,950 --> 01:51:58,490
He's 82.

3283
01:51:58,970 --> 01:52:00,490
Well, it's okay, he's around.

3284
01:52:00,650 --> 01:52:00,830
He was a record...

3285
01:52:00,830 --> 01:52:01,550
Rod Stewart.

3286
01:52:01,790 --> 01:52:02,470
Carly Simon.

3287
01:52:03,050 --> 01:52:03,370
Really?

3288
01:52:03,530 --> 01:52:04,530
Oh, Planet Records.

3289
01:52:04,690 --> 01:52:05,050
Interesting.

3290
01:52:05,250 --> 01:52:05,950
He was at RCA.

3291
01:52:06,650 --> 01:52:07,210
Oh, interesting.

3292
01:52:07,870 --> 01:52:08,750
I don't know this guy.

3293
01:52:08,830 --> 01:52:10,070
You'd think I would have bumped into him.

3294
01:52:10,410 --> 01:52:12,150
Hey, tonight is the Grammys.

3295
01:52:12,730 --> 01:52:14,010
Big Grammy show tonight.

3296
01:52:14,970 --> 01:52:16,510
Oh, you're going to look for the satanic

3297
01:52:16,510 --> 01:52:16,870
stuff?

3298
01:52:16,950 --> 01:52:18,250
Don't think I'll have to look long.

3299
01:52:19,910 --> 01:52:22,490
Yes, I'm sure Bad Bunny will pick up,

3300
01:52:22,570 --> 01:52:23,890
so we'll sweep the awards.

3301
01:52:24,150 --> 01:52:24,890
Bad Bunny.

3302
01:52:25,470 --> 01:52:27,150
Everyone's crazy for the Bad Bunny.

3303
01:52:28,450 --> 01:52:29,630
Yes, the Bad Bunny.

3304
01:52:30,250 --> 01:52:33,590
Oh, one of his biggest hits was You're

3305
01:52:33,590 --> 01:52:35,890
So Vain that he produced.

3306
01:52:36,170 --> 01:52:36,650
Carly Simon.

3307
01:52:36,650 --> 01:52:39,270
Okay, all right.

3308
01:52:39,770 --> 01:52:42,210
Yeah, You're So Vain is perfect for Jane

3309
01:52:42,210 --> 01:52:42,550
Fonda.

3310
01:52:44,530 --> 01:52:47,230
So we run this value for value, which

3311
01:52:47,230 --> 01:52:49,350
is really quite simple.

3312
01:52:50,650 --> 01:52:53,430
We put the show out without any restrictions,

3313
01:52:53,710 --> 01:52:56,770
without any levels or super things you got

3314
01:52:56,770 --> 01:52:57,250
to...

3315
01:52:57,250 --> 01:52:58,170
That actually makes it very...

3316
01:52:58,170 --> 01:53:00,350
I was talking to Tina about this yesterday.

3317
01:53:00,490 --> 01:53:02,870
She's a fundraising professional for the non-profits.

3318
01:53:03,550 --> 01:53:05,930
She says, you know, you guys never have

3319
01:53:05,930 --> 01:53:06,970
done donor stewardship.

3320
01:53:07,650 --> 01:53:10,250
I said, you have no idea how hard

3321
01:53:10,250 --> 01:53:12,810
it is with this value for value.

3322
01:53:12,890 --> 01:53:14,910
It's not like people sign up and you

3323
01:53:14,910 --> 01:53:16,950
just send them a letter twice a year

3324
01:53:16,950 --> 01:53:19,110
with your report on all the great things

3325
01:53:19,110 --> 01:53:19,550
you did.

3326
01:53:19,930 --> 01:53:21,630
So we need them to support us every

3327
01:53:21,630 --> 01:53:22,290
single show.

3328
01:53:22,390 --> 01:53:23,670
They need to give value back.

3329
01:53:24,230 --> 01:53:28,410
And it's not like a set it and

3330
01:53:28,410 --> 01:53:30,010
then write it off type thing.

3331
01:53:30,010 --> 01:53:33,090
We have to remind people twice a week

3332
01:53:33,090 --> 01:53:35,450
to listen to the show and support what

3333
01:53:35,450 --> 01:53:36,930
we do and send value back.

3334
01:53:37,010 --> 01:53:39,030
And we have to have them always questioning

3335
01:53:39,470 --> 01:53:41,190
what kind of value did I get out

3336
01:53:41,190 --> 01:53:41,470
of this?

3337
01:53:41,510 --> 01:53:43,190
Should I return that value?

3338
01:53:43,270 --> 01:53:45,790
How do I feel about getting the value

3339
01:53:45,790 --> 01:53:46,850
and not returning it?

3340
01:53:47,750 --> 01:53:49,410
It's not like in a database.

3341
01:53:49,750 --> 01:53:51,770
It's like, didn't Eric try to do a

3342
01:53:51,770 --> 01:53:52,090
database?

3343
01:53:52,510 --> 01:53:52,610
That's true.

3344
01:53:52,610 --> 01:53:53,890
We don't use Salesforce.

3345
01:53:55,630 --> 01:53:56,070
That's...

3346
01:53:56,070 --> 01:53:59,130
Yes, we need a gentic Salesforce, a gentic

3347
01:53:59,130 --> 01:54:00,450
AI to do that.

3348
01:54:00,730 --> 01:54:02,230
I think Eric tried to do that.

3349
01:54:02,290 --> 01:54:03,870
Didn't he try to put together a database?

3350
01:54:03,870 --> 01:54:05,170
Yeah, Eric was always trying to do the

3351
01:54:05,170 --> 01:54:05,990
high tech stuff.

3352
01:54:06,410 --> 01:54:08,070
But why did that never work?

3353
01:54:08,830 --> 01:54:10,470
There was a million reasons.

3354
01:54:11,170 --> 01:54:13,030
I think the biggest one is people donate

3355
01:54:13,030 --> 01:54:14,150
eight different ways.

3356
01:54:15,110 --> 01:54:16,670
Yeah, there's a lot of fluctuation.

3357
01:54:16,770 --> 01:54:19,730
Yeah, there's too many variables to get anything

3358
01:54:19,730 --> 01:54:20,770
really nailed down.

3359
01:54:20,950 --> 01:54:22,150
And we do too many shows.

3360
01:54:22,250 --> 01:54:23,950
We're doing a hundred shows a year.

3361
01:54:24,010 --> 01:54:24,290
Yeah.

3362
01:54:24,290 --> 01:54:25,470
A hundred and four, actually.

3363
01:54:26,950 --> 01:54:28,690
And we do a hundred and four shows

3364
01:54:28,690 --> 01:54:29,190
a year.

3365
01:54:29,750 --> 01:54:32,470
And it's hectic.

3366
01:54:33,610 --> 01:54:35,970
And like you said, this is not like

3367
01:54:35,970 --> 01:54:38,190
a once a year fundraiser.

3368
01:54:38,290 --> 01:54:40,350
We have to do this every twice a

3369
01:54:40,350 --> 01:54:40,650
week.

3370
01:54:40,790 --> 01:54:40,890
Yeah.

3371
01:54:41,250 --> 01:54:42,450
And it creates all kinds.

3372
01:54:42,510 --> 01:54:43,610
So you have to have a lot of

3373
01:54:43,610 --> 01:54:46,170
things, a lot of plates in the air.

3374
01:54:46,350 --> 01:54:46,790
A lot of them.

3375
01:54:46,970 --> 01:54:47,270
We need...

3376
01:54:47,270 --> 01:54:48,830
I think Salesforce is a good idea.

3377
01:54:49,030 --> 01:54:49,310
Spinning.

3378
01:54:49,410 --> 01:54:50,250
We should take a call.

3379
01:54:53,010 --> 01:54:53,370
Salesforce.

3380
01:54:55,030 --> 01:54:56,570
Hey, Salesforce, hit us up.

3381
01:54:56,650 --> 01:54:58,990
Let us know how your agentic AI can

3382
01:54:58,990 --> 01:55:00,490
actually help us.

3383
01:55:01,170 --> 01:55:02,470
The only thing I'd like to do is

3384
01:55:02,470 --> 01:55:04,290
I'd like to send some of our donors

3385
01:55:04,290 --> 01:55:05,430
a Christmas email.

3386
01:55:05,550 --> 01:55:06,690
And I've tried doing that.

3387
01:55:08,010 --> 01:55:08,810
Even that's...

3388
01:55:08,810 --> 01:55:10,370
Even just sending a thank you mail.

3389
01:55:10,890 --> 01:55:13,310
It's like, you know, your email address gets

3390
01:55:13,310 --> 01:55:14,350
blocked, even if it's just...

3391
01:55:14,350 --> 01:55:15,530
And then they won't get it.

3392
01:55:15,650 --> 01:55:15,830
Yeah.

3393
01:55:16,050 --> 01:55:16,270
Yeah.

3394
01:55:16,350 --> 01:55:17,730
How come I didn't get one?

3395
01:55:18,470 --> 01:55:19,450
It's a good question.

3396
01:55:19,450 --> 01:55:19,990
You got that issue.

3397
01:55:20,070 --> 01:55:21,250
We don't want to deal with that.

3398
01:55:21,410 --> 01:55:21,690
Yeah.

3399
01:55:22,330 --> 01:55:25,930
Like even sending out the night rings and

3400
01:55:25,930 --> 01:55:27,350
the day rings is quite a...

3401
01:55:27,350 --> 01:55:28,350
Yeah, that's...

3402
01:55:28,350 --> 01:55:29,110
Quite an ordeal.

3403
01:55:29,410 --> 01:55:30,250
Quite an ordeal.

3404
01:55:30,610 --> 01:55:30,730
Yes.

3405
01:55:30,990 --> 01:55:31,870
It's annoying.

3406
01:55:32,110 --> 01:55:34,630
And we have a full-time J, J

3407
01:55:34,630 --> 01:55:35,650
the AI agent.

3408
01:55:37,230 --> 01:55:38,170
She does good work.

3409
01:55:38,230 --> 01:55:39,410
She does very good work.

3410
01:55:40,310 --> 01:55:41,190
See, she...

3411
01:55:41,190 --> 01:55:42,590
Nary does she make a mistake.

3412
01:55:42,710 --> 01:55:43,750
And we appreciate that.

3413
01:55:45,610 --> 01:55:48,070
So time, talent and treasure is what we

3414
01:55:48,070 --> 01:55:49,110
decided on.

3415
01:55:49,870 --> 01:55:50,970
You can support us.

3416
01:55:51,210 --> 01:55:52,970
We love when you go hit somebody in

3417
01:55:52,970 --> 01:55:54,970
the mouth, let them know about the show,

3418
01:55:55,030 --> 01:55:56,930
because there's no way an algorithm is...

3419
01:55:56,930 --> 01:55:59,350
And you got to remind people, you know,

3420
01:55:59,370 --> 01:56:00,650
because they're like, wow, what is this?

3421
01:56:00,790 --> 01:56:01,370
What is this?

3422
01:56:01,570 --> 01:56:02,650
Because we're so different.

3423
01:56:03,130 --> 01:56:05,410
It's like, how come they don't have other

3424
01:56:05,410 --> 01:56:06,850
podcasters on their podcast?

3425
01:56:07,810 --> 01:56:09,170
You know, isn't that what you're supposed to

3426
01:56:09,170 --> 01:56:09,370
do?

3427
01:56:10,670 --> 01:56:11,690
No, we don't do that.

3428
01:56:11,910 --> 01:56:12,850
We don't do interviews.

3429
01:56:13,110 --> 01:56:16,710
We just deconstruct the media, which...

3430
01:56:16,710 --> 01:56:18,530
Which was our smartest decision ever.

3431
01:56:18,530 --> 01:56:19,730
Yes, it's still...

3432
01:56:19,730 --> 01:56:22,270
It's still very, maybe even more important than

3433
01:56:22,270 --> 01:56:22,530
ever.

3434
01:56:22,870 --> 01:56:24,930
And even though people don't really...

3435
01:56:26,090 --> 01:56:29,810
The absolute numbers of the media are not

3436
01:56:29,810 --> 01:56:32,430
that big anymore, but it still sets the

3437
01:56:32,430 --> 01:56:32,690
tone.

3438
01:56:32,810 --> 01:56:35,950
It sets the tone of Washington, of the

3439
01:56:35,950 --> 01:56:42,130
lobbyists, of the Congress, sets an international tone.

3440
01:56:43,230 --> 01:56:46,330
And I increasingly learned that there's a lot

3441
01:56:46,330 --> 01:56:48,770
of people who just tune in to hear

3442
01:56:48,770 --> 01:56:49,570
what's going on.

3443
01:56:49,690 --> 01:56:51,070
They don't want to watch it.

3444
01:56:51,150 --> 01:56:52,650
They are tuned out.

3445
01:56:53,050 --> 01:56:55,170
They're not interested in being involved.

3446
01:56:55,250 --> 01:56:56,410
They're not on social media.

3447
01:56:56,850 --> 01:56:57,570
They're just working.

3448
01:56:58,110 --> 01:56:59,430
They're fixing cars.

3449
01:57:00,290 --> 01:57:01,970
They're, you know, they're mowing lawn.

3450
01:57:02,210 --> 01:57:02,990
They're doing whatever.

3451
01:57:03,450 --> 01:57:05,610
They just want to bring me up to

3452
01:57:05,610 --> 01:57:07,090
speed, make me laugh a little bit.

3453
01:57:07,450 --> 01:57:09,630
And then, yeah, that was pretty valuable.

3454
01:57:09,850 --> 01:57:10,710
I'm up to speed.

3455
01:57:10,830 --> 01:57:12,070
I'll send something back to them.

3456
01:57:12,650 --> 01:57:14,070
One of the ways you can do that

3457
01:57:14,070 --> 01:57:16,870
is by setting up No Agenda meetups.

3458
01:57:18,050 --> 01:57:19,250
John, when do you want to do your

3459
01:57:19,250 --> 01:57:19,930
meetup report?

3460
01:57:20,730 --> 01:57:23,070
Well, I'll do it during the...

3461
01:57:23,070 --> 01:57:24,610
When we start reading after we get to

3462
01:57:24,610 --> 01:57:25,390
the second or third.

3463
01:57:25,470 --> 01:57:28,830
I put three of the donors right on

3464
01:57:28,830 --> 01:57:29,450
the spreadsheet.

3465
01:57:29,550 --> 01:57:30,750
The rest of them I have here in

3466
01:57:30,750 --> 01:57:32,730
a pile because there's just too many.

3467
01:57:33,190 --> 01:57:35,590
Well, we have great response at this, at

3468
01:57:35,590 --> 01:57:37,910
our meetups here in Northern California, Northern Silicon

3469
01:57:37,910 --> 01:57:40,590
Valley, unlike the cheap bastards there in Texas.

3470
01:57:40,590 --> 01:57:42,350
Yeah, well, they're really good.

3471
01:57:42,550 --> 01:57:43,430
They're afraid of you.

3472
01:57:43,670 --> 01:57:45,110
And you see, I'm just like, hey, nice,

3473
01:57:45,230 --> 01:57:45,830
thanks for coming.

3474
01:57:46,090 --> 01:57:47,730
And you're just like, where's the donation?

3475
01:57:50,140 --> 01:57:50,920
True or not?

3476
01:57:51,740 --> 01:57:53,900
I don't say, I've never said where's the

3477
01:57:53,900 --> 01:57:54,380
donation.

3478
01:57:55,000 --> 01:57:56,300
You do before the meetup.

3479
01:57:57,000 --> 01:57:57,660
Yes, I do.

3480
01:57:57,680 --> 01:57:59,100
You're very good about that.

3481
01:58:01,100 --> 01:58:03,360
We also accept other forms.

3482
01:58:03,700 --> 01:58:05,660
Boots on the ground are very much appreciated.

3483
01:58:07,680 --> 01:58:09,000
Clips, time codes.

3484
01:58:09,140 --> 01:58:11,380
If you send us a video.

3485
01:58:11,840 --> 01:58:13,720
What is not helpful, by the way?

3486
01:58:15,080 --> 01:58:16,340
Ah, I did it.

3487
01:58:16,560 --> 01:58:17,600
I got to stop that.

3488
01:58:18,400 --> 01:58:19,860
I said, by the way, you didn't even

3489
01:58:19,860 --> 01:58:20,480
catch it.

3490
01:58:21,000 --> 01:58:21,380
What is it?

3491
01:58:21,580 --> 01:58:23,640
You know, everything, this is- I'm getting

3492
01:58:23,640 --> 01:58:23,940
better.

3493
01:58:24,100 --> 01:58:24,700
I'm getting better.

3494
01:58:24,980 --> 01:58:25,740
I'm not.

3495
01:58:25,940 --> 01:58:26,700
Yeah, you will.

3496
01:58:26,900 --> 01:58:27,280
You will.

3497
01:58:29,960 --> 01:58:33,200
People will send, say that this is great.

3498
01:58:33,840 --> 01:58:36,440
What is not great is some other podcaster

3499
01:58:36,440 --> 01:58:39,840
playing clips, interrupting the clip, little box in

3500
01:58:39,840 --> 01:58:41,340
the corner of the YouTube screen.

3501
01:58:41,780 --> 01:58:42,500
That's not helpful.

3502
01:58:43,180 --> 01:58:44,040
Have you seen the one?

3503
01:58:44,200 --> 01:58:45,920
There's one, I put it, I posted it

3504
01:58:45,920 --> 01:58:47,900
on the Real Dvorak on Twitter.

3505
01:58:48,460 --> 01:58:49,760
Have you seen the one where this little

3506
01:58:49,760 --> 01:58:51,280
guy in the box down there and he's

3507
01:58:51,280 --> 01:58:52,860
yakking away about something going on?

3508
01:58:52,900 --> 01:58:55,620
And then the person in the video grabs

3509
01:58:55,620 --> 01:58:56,380
him by the head?

3510
01:58:56,600 --> 01:58:58,400
No, no, I haven't seen that.

3511
01:58:58,680 --> 01:58:59,720
It's beautiful.

3512
01:59:00,100 --> 01:59:02,920
It's so meta and it completely catches you

3513
01:59:02,920 --> 01:59:03,540
off guard.

3514
01:59:03,980 --> 01:59:04,620
Oh, that's good.

3515
01:59:05,700 --> 01:59:07,580
Artwork is also highly appreciated.

3516
01:59:07,580 --> 01:59:11,000
You can upload it to noagendaartgenerator.com.

3517
01:59:11,100 --> 01:59:13,740
I think the complaining has done something.

3518
01:59:14,100 --> 01:59:19,040
The art, some pieces have become simpler, a

3519
01:59:19,040 --> 01:59:20,100
little more to the point.

3520
01:59:20,660 --> 01:59:23,920
Complaining, does it- Complaining works.

3521
01:59:24,480 --> 01:59:26,320
Underestimated as a methodology.

3522
01:59:26,760 --> 01:59:27,420
Undervalued.

3523
01:59:27,500 --> 01:59:29,940
It's very undervalued as a methodology to getting

3524
01:59:29,940 --> 01:59:30,700
what you want.

3525
01:59:31,060 --> 01:59:33,600
The Canadians don't have it quite perfected yet.

3526
01:59:34,000 --> 01:59:34,840
They had the right idea.

3527
01:59:35,780 --> 01:59:37,700
So Red, who I think is- Is

3528
01:59:37,700 --> 01:59:40,480
Red a kind of a new artist on

3529
01:59:40,480 --> 01:59:40,780
the scene?

3530
01:59:40,840 --> 01:59:41,900
A new prompter on the scene?

3531
01:59:41,980 --> 01:59:43,560
No, Red has done quite a lot actually

3532
01:59:43,560 --> 01:59:44,840
throughout the years, I see.

3533
01:59:46,100 --> 01:59:50,220
But Red created for us the Color Revolution

3534
01:59:50,220 --> 01:59:53,440
Blues with Paint Can, Color Blue, noagenda, best

3535
01:59:53,440 --> 01:59:55,620
podcast in the universe, Curry Dvorak, simple-

3536
01:59:55,620 --> 01:59:57,260
Yeah, I was pushing for something else, but

3537
01:59:57,260 --> 01:59:59,600
you insisted that the one I liked-

3538
01:59:59,600 --> 02:00:01,140
Well, you didn't want the one that I

3539
02:00:01,140 --> 02:00:01,520
liked.

3540
02:00:01,740 --> 02:00:03,280
No, the one you liked was gruesome.

3541
02:00:03,280 --> 02:00:05,420
I liked the cigarettes in the eyes.

3542
02:00:05,500 --> 02:00:06,280
I thought it was phenomenal.

3543
02:00:06,740 --> 02:00:07,980
Here, this is what Adam thinks.

3544
02:00:08,100 --> 02:00:09,860
This is great, it's sexy.

3545
02:00:10,320 --> 02:00:12,420
And it was some guy with his eyes

3546
02:00:12,420 --> 02:00:15,880
gouged out and two cigarette butts in each

3547
02:00:15,880 --> 02:00:16,280
eye.

3548
02:00:16,300 --> 02:00:18,000
It was Eli the coffee guy too.

3549
02:00:18,240 --> 02:00:20,580
I really liked Eli's work here.

3550
02:00:21,280 --> 02:00:21,920
It was funny.

3551
02:00:22,280 --> 02:00:23,440
It was gruesome.

3552
02:00:23,600 --> 02:00:24,760
It was cigarettes for the eyes.

3553
02:00:24,800 --> 02:00:26,280
And he kept- And he couldn't see

3554
02:00:26,280 --> 02:00:26,940
it as gruesome.

3555
02:00:26,980 --> 02:00:28,960
I don't understand this at all.

3556
02:00:29,900 --> 02:00:31,360
No, I didn't see it as gruesome.

3557
02:00:31,440 --> 02:00:32,660
What was the one that you liked?

3558
02:00:32,660 --> 02:00:34,380
You wanted something dumb.

3559
02:00:34,520 --> 02:00:35,260
I remember that.

3560
02:00:35,440 --> 02:00:36,280
You wanted the puppy.

3561
02:00:36,700 --> 02:00:37,780
You wanted the puppy.

3562
02:00:38,220 --> 02:00:40,120
Like, you wanted my dog in the snow.

3563
02:00:40,800 --> 02:00:42,460
No, I did like that, but that's not

3564
02:00:42,460 --> 02:00:43,240
what I was pushing for.

3565
02:00:43,320 --> 02:00:46,120
What I was pushing for was trying to

3566
02:00:46,120 --> 02:00:46,620
find it.

3567
02:00:46,720 --> 02:00:48,260
The icebreaker, another Eli.

3568
02:00:48,980 --> 02:00:50,860
I did use, by the way, blue acorns

3569
02:00:50,860 --> 02:00:52,760
create a man for the newsletter.

3570
02:00:52,940 --> 02:00:53,840
You said, by the way.

3571
02:00:54,880 --> 02:00:55,280
Ah!

3572
02:00:57,360 --> 02:00:59,680
I'm going to help you with this.

3573
02:00:59,980 --> 02:01:00,780
It's a tough one.

3574
02:01:02,280 --> 02:01:04,940
I think we've been saying it so long

3575
02:01:04,940 --> 02:01:07,580
without even noticing it as some kind of

3576
02:01:07,580 --> 02:01:10,480
connector that we feel we need, but we

3577
02:01:10,480 --> 02:01:11,200
don't need that.

3578
02:01:11,380 --> 02:01:13,900
We don't need these three words.

3579
02:01:14,760 --> 02:01:15,780
We don't need them.

3580
02:01:16,040 --> 02:01:17,400
I'm deprogramming you.

3581
02:01:17,560 --> 02:01:18,960
We do not need these three words.

3582
02:01:18,960 --> 02:01:20,560
Well, I'm sure, you know, I'm so hard

3583
02:01:20,560 --> 02:01:21,280
to deprogram.

3584
02:01:21,380 --> 02:01:22,300
Here's the one I liked.

3585
02:01:22,340 --> 02:01:25,540
It was pressure washers with Jeffrey Rea where

3586
02:01:25,540 --> 02:01:26,780
they're using a pressure washer.

3587
02:01:27,060 --> 02:01:29,300
Yeah, I didn't like that because- I

3588
02:01:29,300 --> 02:01:30,300
love that piece.

3589
02:01:31,460 --> 02:01:34,240
But you, I like the eyeballs.

3590
02:01:35,260 --> 02:01:37,600
So we settled on the paint can.

3591
02:01:37,720 --> 02:01:38,960
I do like the eyeballs.

3592
02:01:39,120 --> 02:01:40,120
I still like the eyeball.

3593
02:01:40,180 --> 02:01:41,440
I'm going to print it out, blow it

3594
02:01:41,440 --> 02:01:42,340
up, put it on my wall.

3595
02:01:42,340 --> 02:01:43,320
Yeah, I want you to frame it and

3596
02:01:43,320 --> 02:01:44,120
put it in the office.

3597
02:01:44,320 --> 02:01:46,360
Thank you, Red, Double D Red, for bringing

3598
02:01:46,360 --> 02:01:51,420
us the artwork for episode 1838, which, what

3599
02:01:51,420 --> 02:01:52,620
did we title that one?

3600
02:01:53,760 --> 02:01:55,860
1838 was, oh, Coup a Foot.

3601
02:01:56,040 --> 02:01:56,580
There you go.

3602
02:01:57,640 --> 02:01:59,580
And now, as we always, as part of

3603
02:01:59,580 --> 02:02:01,360
our value for value model, which is very

3604
02:02:01,360 --> 02:02:05,520
different from a nonprofit donor stewardship model, we

3605
02:02:05,520 --> 02:02:06,800
do it twice a week.

3606
02:02:07,000 --> 02:02:08,780
We thank people who supported us and we

3607
02:02:08,780 --> 02:02:10,520
tell you how much they supported us with.

3608
02:02:10,560 --> 02:02:12,360
And we do that for $50 and above.

3609
02:02:12,720 --> 02:02:15,160
Under 50, not mentioned for reasons of anonymity.

3610
02:02:15,260 --> 02:02:16,680
And in this segment, we'd like to thank

3611
02:02:16,680 --> 02:02:19,940
our executive and associate executive producers because we

3612
02:02:19,940 --> 02:02:22,040
give you a title to go with that,

3613
02:02:22,080 --> 02:02:22,980
which is kind of cool.

3614
02:02:23,060 --> 02:02:24,380
It's a real showbiz title.

3615
02:02:24,520 --> 02:02:26,060
It's good for the rest of your life.

3616
02:02:26,540 --> 02:02:28,860
And you can put it on imdb.com

3617
02:02:28,860 --> 02:02:30,320
if one of our friends of the show

3618
02:02:30,320 --> 02:02:31,680
hasn't already done it for you.

3619
02:02:32,320 --> 02:02:35,000
And $200 or more gets you an associate

3620
02:02:35,000 --> 02:02:36,440
executive producership credit.

3621
02:02:36,940 --> 02:02:38,060
And we'll read your note.

3622
02:02:38,180 --> 02:02:40,860
$300 and above is an executive producership.

3623
02:02:40,900 --> 02:02:41,820
And we will read your note.

3624
02:02:41,920 --> 02:02:43,320
And the first one, as far as I

3625
02:02:43,320 --> 02:02:44,620
can tell, has no note.

3626
02:02:45,300 --> 02:02:47,420
It is, I give a little background.

3627
02:02:47,600 --> 02:02:48,240
This came in.

3628
02:02:48,300 --> 02:02:49,140
This was a meetup.

3629
02:02:49,300 --> 02:02:51,560
These first two donations are from the meetup.

3630
02:02:51,840 --> 02:02:53,260
OK, so it's Jeffrey P.

3631
02:02:53,380 --> 02:02:55,240
Roster from Morgan Hill, California.

3632
02:02:55,900 --> 02:02:56,260
Associates.

3633
02:02:56,320 --> 02:02:58,060
And he says he wanted to be knighted.

3634
02:02:58,420 --> 02:02:59,300
I think we put him on the night

3635
02:02:59,300 --> 02:02:59,960
list anyway.

3636
02:03:00,180 --> 02:03:01,600
And he said that email is coming.

3637
02:03:01,700 --> 02:03:02,520
I didn't get one.

3638
02:03:02,580 --> 02:03:04,460
And obviously it notes that no agenda showed

3639
02:03:04,460 --> 02:03:04,660
up.

3640
02:03:04,820 --> 02:03:05,920
Net didn't get one.

3641
02:03:06,100 --> 02:03:07,240
And I don't think you got one.

3642
02:03:07,340 --> 02:03:07,860
No, I didn't.

3643
02:03:07,900 --> 02:03:09,540
So we have to wait for his note

3644
02:03:09,540 --> 02:03:11,200
for his thousand dollar donation.

3645
02:03:11,340 --> 02:03:12,500
But give him a double up karma.

3646
02:03:12,640 --> 02:03:12,800
Yes.

3647
02:03:12,900 --> 02:03:13,780
And he was at the meetup.

3648
02:03:14,780 --> 02:03:15,920
Yeah, you've got.

3649
02:03:18,240 --> 02:03:19,820
He's not only at the meetup, but he

3650
02:03:19,820 --> 02:03:21,920
didn't put the check in an envelope or

3651
02:03:21,920 --> 02:03:22,240
anything.

3652
02:03:22,340 --> 02:03:24,520
He just says he's just handed me a

3653
02:03:24,520 --> 02:03:24,760
check.

3654
02:03:24,760 --> 02:03:27,160
Did anyone stick an envelope to your back

3655
02:03:27,160 --> 02:03:28,180
like a Jewish bride?

3656
02:03:28,420 --> 02:03:28,940
Like I request?

3657
02:03:29,280 --> 02:03:30,080
No, no, I got no.

3658
02:03:30,260 --> 02:03:31,980
Well, not that I noticed it might have

3659
02:03:31,980 --> 02:03:32,680
fallen off.

3660
02:03:34,940 --> 02:03:35,820
Lucas T.

3661
02:03:36,260 --> 02:03:36,880
Is this now?

3662
02:03:36,980 --> 02:03:38,000
I can read this.

3663
02:03:38,340 --> 02:03:38,680
Yes.

3664
02:03:38,880 --> 02:03:40,360
And by the way, this is also for

3665
02:03:40,360 --> 02:03:41,220
you, by the way.

3666
02:03:42,300 --> 02:03:42,740
Ah.

3667
02:03:44,240 --> 02:03:45,880
This is also from the I must be

3668
02:03:45,880 --> 02:03:47,160
the real offender, then.

3669
02:03:48,120 --> 02:03:48,560
No.

3670
02:03:50,020 --> 02:03:52,840
This is this is also from the meetup,

3671
02:03:52,840 --> 02:03:56,060
and this is a big, big guy.

3672
02:03:56,360 --> 02:03:56,840
Big guy.

3673
02:03:57,060 --> 02:03:57,280
All right.

3674
02:03:57,380 --> 02:03:58,300
Big, big hands.

3675
02:03:58,440 --> 02:04:01,440
I have a meetup report later, and I

3676
02:04:01,440 --> 02:04:03,020
think he was in the meetup report.

3677
02:04:03,120 --> 02:04:03,680
So Lucas T.

3678
02:04:03,740 --> 02:04:04,480
A thousand dollars.

3679
02:04:04,980 --> 02:04:06,300
And he says it was a pleasure meeting

3680
02:04:06,300 --> 02:04:07,980

3681
02:04:07,980 --> 02:04:08,200

Oakland meetup.

3683
02:04:09,020 --> 02:04:09,700
It's official now.

3684
02:04:09,780 --> 02:04:10,580
I'm a knight, sir.

3685
02:04:10,740 --> 02:04:13,420
Sloth of local four eleven seven.

3686
02:04:14,000 --> 02:04:15,880
All hail Baron anonymous cop.

02:04:16,000 --> 02:04:17,700
No, you're not yet, but you will be

3688

3689
02:04:18,580 --> 02:04:19,700
You have not been knighted yet.

3690
02:04:20,240 --> 02:04:20,780

Oh, that's nice.

02:04:25,440 --> 02:04:28,240
My father, nicknamed the animal, is a three

3697

02:04:47,380 --> 02:04:49,160
I'll bet you this guy knows Uncle Don.

3703
02:04:50,740 --> 02:04:51,340
Ask him.

3704
02:04:52,180 --> 02:04:53,920
Anyway, says I love you, Dad.

3705
02:04:54,460 --> 02:04:56,800
Bravo, sir, for raising two great kids.

3706
02:04:57,500 --> 02:04:58,820
We lost mom last year.

3707
02:04:58,880 --> 02:05:00,780
They were married for 51 years.

3708
02:05:01,400 --> 02:05:03,300
Dad and I take trips together now, partly

3709
02:05:03,300 --> 02:05:04,700
to get him off the couch since he's

3710
02:05:04,700 --> 02:05:05,760
a Fox News dad.

3711
02:05:06,220 --> 02:05:08,500
Your show has helped us has helped both

02:05:08,500 --> 02:05:10,280
of us better understand the direction of the

3713
02:05:10,280 --> 02:05:12,560
world and grow our personal wealth because of

3714
02:05:12,560 --> 02:05:12,760
it.

3715
02:05:13,140 --> 02:05:14,700
Well, now that's some value.

3716
02:05:15,840 --> 02:05:17,960
He has some douchebag calls out call outs

3717
02:05:17,960 --> 02:05:19,220
here for Steve McGrath.

3718
02:05:19,220 --> 02:05:22,980
Douchebag for Tony D'Amato.

3719
02:05:24,240 --> 02:05:26,000
Douchebag David Miller.

3720
02:05:27,060 --> 02:05:28,980
Douchebag and guess what?

3721
02:05:29,020 --> 02:05:29,800
My dad, Wayne.

3722
02:05:30,300 --> 02:05:34,140
Douchebag that I wonder how that'll go over.

3723
02:05:34,720 --> 02:05:38,840
He needs a de-douching Obama phone de

3724
02:05:38,840 --> 02:05:39,300
-douching.

3725
02:05:39,400 --> 02:05:41,000
He mentioned that in a separate note.

3726
02:05:42,640 --> 02:05:44,460
You've been de-douched.

3727
02:05:44,580 --> 02:05:50,150
Everybody in Cleveland saw my president, you know.

3728
02:05:50,530 --> 02:05:51,570
He gave us a phone.

3729
02:05:52,450 --> 02:05:54,590
And I want to mention one thing.

3730
02:05:54,670 --> 02:05:59,290
He also said in a long, short, long,

3731
02:05:59,610 --> 02:06:04,450
short piece about modern policing techniques because he's

3732
02:06:04,450 --> 02:06:04,910
a cop.

3733
02:06:05,130 --> 02:06:05,350
Yeah.

3734
02:06:06,050 --> 02:06:09,090
And which I will read in some future

3735
02:06:09,090 --> 02:06:11,610
episode when it applies to something we're talking

3736
02:06:11,610 --> 02:06:11,950
about.

3737
02:06:12,090 --> 02:06:14,370
It's a lot of new drone technology being

3738
02:06:14,370 --> 02:06:15,550
used by the police department.

3739
02:06:15,750 --> 02:06:21,110
Oh, well, Baron Sir, an anonymous cop has

3740
02:06:21,110 --> 02:06:22,750
a lot of experience with that as he

3741
02:06:22,750 --> 02:06:23,290
has emailed.

3742
02:06:23,570 --> 02:06:25,450
Yeah, they're buddies, those two guys.

3743
02:06:25,710 --> 02:06:27,490
It's good to have friends like this, John.

3744
02:06:28,730 --> 02:06:29,030
Yeah.

3745
02:06:31,870 --> 02:06:33,270
Feel free to read the next one.

3746
02:06:33,670 --> 02:06:34,750
I should mention this.

3747
02:06:35,130 --> 02:06:37,510
So he's in South San Francisco and I

3748
02:06:37,510 --> 02:06:39,930
didn't mention, but he should know that it's

3749
02:06:39,930 --> 02:06:41,550
the side of that hill in South San

3750
02:06:41,550 --> 02:06:44,270
Francisco that I think where they should put

3751
02:06:44,270 --> 02:06:45,050
the favela.

3752
02:06:46,030 --> 02:06:46,810
On the hill?

3753
02:06:47,450 --> 02:06:47,710
Yeah.

3754
02:06:48,090 --> 02:06:48,530
Beautiful.

3755
02:06:48,850 --> 02:06:49,170
All right.

3756
02:06:49,210 --> 02:06:50,070
They could police it.

3757
02:06:50,290 --> 02:06:50,650
Wonderful.

3758
02:06:51,290 --> 02:06:52,750
No, you don't police favelas.

3759
02:06:53,310 --> 02:06:54,150
Self-policing.

3760
02:06:56,740 --> 02:06:58,400
OK, feel free to continue.

3761
02:06:59,360 --> 02:07:00,100
Yeah, I should.

3762
02:07:00,180 --> 02:07:02,860
I'm going to read a couple of the

3763
02:07:02,860 --> 02:07:04,700
notes from the meetup after we get to

3764
02:07:04,700 --> 02:07:05,160
300.

3765
02:07:05,620 --> 02:07:05,720
OK.

3766
02:07:05,820 --> 02:07:09,880
David Roberts in Norristown, Pennsylvania, 6-24-33.

3767
02:07:10,080 --> 02:07:11,740
As the Duke of Pennsylvania some years ago,

3768
02:07:11,780 --> 02:07:12,800
I needed de-douching.

3769
02:07:14,620 --> 02:07:16,260
You've been de-douched.

3770
02:07:17,520 --> 02:07:19,280
I just want to say if you want

3771
02:07:19,280 --> 02:07:23,000
a competitive edge with the resume that gets

3772
02:07:23,000 --> 02:07:25,340
results, go to ImageMakersInc.com with a K.

3773
02:07:25,960 --> 02:07:27,680
I'll be reaching out soon.

3774
02:07:28,280 --> 02:07:29,580
I guess he's looking for work.

3775
02:07:29,760 --> 02:07:30,320
Beautiful.

3776
02:07:31,200 --> 02:07:32,640
Oh, here's Sir Deanonymous.

3777
02:07:32,800 --> 02:07:33,380
This is great.

3778
02:07:33,600 --> 02:07:36,720
He's in East Grinstead and he's in the

3779
02:07:36,720 --> 02:07:40,200
United Kingdom and he is the man responsible

3780
02:07:40,200 --> 02:07:45,380
for the technology behind Bingit.io, which is

3781
02:07:45,380 --> 02:07:46,620
known as Clip Genie.

3782
02:07:47,200 --> 02:07:50,820
And he came with $333.33 and this

3783
02:07:50,820 --> 02:07:51,380
is important.

3784
02:07:51,960 --> 02:07:54,680
He says, Alongside my normal recurring donation of

3785
02:07:54,680 --> 02:07:56,800
$55.10, double nickels on the dime, I

3786
02:07:56,800 --> 02:07:59,200
want to send in this special $333.33

3787
02:07:59,200 --> 02:08:01,540
donation to celebrate the launch of Clip Genie

3788
02:08:01,540 --> 02:08:04,780
2.0. After many months of hard work

3789
02:08:04,780 --> 02:08:07,480
resulting in being several episodes behind, as it

3790
02:08:07,480 --> 02:08:08,920
turns out, I can't listen and code at

3791
02:08:08,920 --> 02:08:10,520
the same time, it's finally finished.

3792
02:08:11,180 --> 02:08:13,480
Anyone with a podcast can now sign up

3793
02:08:13,480 --> 02:08:16,000
for their own instance of Clip Genie using

3794
02:08:16,000 --> 02:08:17,320
just their RSS feed.

3795
02:08:17,720 --> 02:08:19,880
Now, if you've ever seen Bingit.io, which

3796
02:08:19,880 --> 02:08:23,000
forwards to Clip Genie, you can just search

3797
02:08:23,000 --> 02:08:26,160
terms, it'll find transcript, you click on that,

3798
02:08:26,260 --> 02:08:29,560
it plays that part of the transcript in

3799
02:08:29,560 --> 02:08:32,740
the show, it links to clips, it links

3800
02:08:32,740 --> 02:08:35,000
to show notes, and you can make...

3801
02:08:35,000 --> 02:08:36,240
I'm glad he's commercializing.

3802
02:08:36,940 --> 02:08:39,900
Yes, because this thing has been costing him

3803
02:08:39,900 --> 02:08:40,160
money.

3804
02:08:40,260 --> 02:08:43,060
It's been an ongoing project and I hope

3805
02:08:43,060 --> 02:08:46,100
more podcasters will use it because it is

3806
02:08:46,100 --> 02:08:49,900
fantastic and the clip sharing is what he's

3807
02:08:49,900 --> 02:08:52,540
really focusing on, which is funny because I

3808
02:08:52,540 --> 02:08:55,280
got a note from Linode, he said, I

3809
02:08:55,280 --> 02:08:57,780
have noagendaassets.com, that's where I post all

3810
02:08:57,780 --> 02:08:59,800
the clips and the show notes and everything.

3811
02:09:00,400 --> 02:09:02,780
And it says, just so you know, there's

3812
02:09:02,780 --> 02:09:05,020
been a lot of extra outgoing bandwidth and

3813
02:09:05,020 --> 02:09:06,160
it gave me two alerts.

3814
02:09:06,720 --> 02:09:08,160
I'm like, what is going on?

3815
02:09:08,200 --> 02:09:09,640
So I get into the box, I'm like,

3816
02:09:09,680 --> 02:09:11,580
this has got to be some AI scraping

3817
02:09:11,580 --> 02:09:12,520
me, these bandits.

3818
02:09:13,140 --> 02:09:14,620
Well, of course it was Sir Deenonymous.

3819
02:09:15,180 --> 02:09:17,200
It's our own AI scraping us, so it's

3820
02:09:17,200 --> 02:09:17,420
good.

3821
02:09:18,100 --> 02:09:19,680
Everything has been improved.

3822
02:09:19,800 --> 02:09:23,340
The transcription quality, the clip generator capability, shared

3823
02:09:23,340 --> 02:09:24,560
links to episodes and clips.

3824
02:09:24,660 --> 02:09:25,960
You can now see which clips have been

3825
02:09:25,960 --> 02:09:27,860
made by any member of your audience, which

3826
02:09:27,860 --> 02:09:29,400
links they have shared and how many times

3827
02:09:29,400 --> 02:09:30,000
they've been visited.

3828
02:09:30,800 --> 02:09:33,100
I listened to everybody's feedback when making version

3829
02:09:33,100 --> 02:09:35,220
two, so there's lots of improvements in bingit

3830
02:09:35,220 --> 02:09:36,160
.io as well.

3831
02:09:36,600 --> 02:09:39,200
Every episode has been retranscribed, so the clip

3832
02:09:39,200 --> 02:09:41,200
start and end times will be bang on

3833
02:09:41,200 --> 02:09:42,600
with less errors in the transcript.

3834
02:09:43,380 --> 02:09:45,840
This makes finding things you remember even easier.

3835
02:09:46,580 --> 02:09:48,760
You now listen to the exact audio that

3836
02:09:48,760 --> 02:09:50,260
will be in the clip before you commit.

3837
02:09:51,000 --> 02:09:51,860
Clip before you commit.

3838
02:09:52,400 --> 02:09:54,420
The search results now include a timeline of

3839
02:09:54,420 --> 02:09:56,040
when your results occur in the show, and

3840
02:09:56,040 --> 02:09:58,320
you can see the actual text match, so

3841
02:09:58,320 --> 02:10:00,100
no more jumping in and out of episodes

3842
02:10:00,100 --> 02:10:01,580
trying to work out which one is the

3843
02:10:01,580 --> 02:10:02,000
right one.

3844
02:10:02,220 --> 02:10:04,520
This time though, it really is powered by

3845
02:10:04,520 --> 02:10:07,420
AI with the option of semantic search built

3846
02:10:07,420 --> 02:10:07,660
in.

3847
02:10:07,740 --> 02:10:08,860
Oh, the holy grail.

3848
02:10:09,860 --> 02:10:10,940
I've been trying to come up...

3849
02:10:10,940 --> 02:10:11,480
It's fuzzy.

3850
02:10:11,900 --> 02:10:13,280
I've been trying to come up with some

3851
02:10:13,280 --> 02:10:15,960
fancy marketing copy to rival Eli the Coffee

3852
02:10:15,960 --> 02:10:18,220
Guy and Linda Liu, but quickly realized I

3853
02:10:18,220 --> 02:10:19,000
have no chance.

3854
02:10:19,840 --> 02:10:22,900
So all I will say is this.

3855
02:10:23,400 --> 02:10:25,780
Turn your audience into your marketing department.

3856
02:10:25,960 --> 02:10:26,440
Clip Genie.

3857
02:10:26,840 --> 02:10:27,720
That's a good bit.

3858
02:10:27,920 --> 02:10:28,560
I like that.

3859
02:10:28,900 --> 02:10:29,920
Right there is good.

3860
02:10:30,380 --> 02:10:32,620
Turn your audience into your marketing department.

3861
02:10:33,000 --> 02:10:35,400
Clip Genie gives listeners the power to search

3862
02:10:35,400 --> 02:10:37,660

I love this.

3870
02:10:54,800 --> 02:10:56,000
It is a great...

3871
02:10:56,000 --> 02:10:58,280
This is really an outstanding product.

3872
02:10:58,580 --> 02:10:58,980
It had...

3873
02:10:58,980 --> 02:11:00,260
The version one was good.

3874
02:11:00,740 --> 02:11:02,300
Version two is fantastic.

3875
02:11:02,520 --> 02:11:05,500
So finally, you can share us on the

3876
02:11:05,500 --> 02:11:07,860
socials with confidence and ease.

3877
02:11:08,140 --> 02:11:09,860
Thank you very much, Sir Deanonymous.

3878
02:11:10,040 --> 02:11:11,120
Highly appreciate it.

3879
02:11:12,180 --> 02:11:13,740
Again, well worth reading that note.

3880
02:11:14,380 --> 02:11:16,000
Anything to get him some money?

3881
02:11:17,040 --> 02:11:21,020
Kenneth Cal, or Kiel, in El Sobrante, he

3882
02:11:21,020 --> 02:11:23,080
was at the meetup, 33333, put a little

3883
02:11:23,080 --> 02:11:27,600
note saying it was like a night donation.

3884
02:11:27,760 --> 02:11:28,880
I don't know if it's for his night.

3885
02:11:28,960 --> 02:11:30,280
He didn't give us any details.

3886
02:11:30,380 --> 02:11:31,740
I think I got another note afterwards.

3887
02:11:32,100 --> 02:11:34,480
This is another kind of just hanging out

3888
02:11:34,480 --> 02:11:35,160
there thingy.

3889
02:11:35,600 --> 02:11:37,120
And we'll give him a double up, Carmen.

3890
02:11:37,240 --> 02:11:38,620
Then I've got the notes to read from

3891
02:11:38,620 --> 02:11:39,220
the meetup.

3892
02:11:39,400 --> 02:11:39,560
Okay.

3893
02:11:40,980 --> 02:11:44,440
You've got Karma.

3894
02:11:44,660 --> 02:11:44,900
All right.

3895
02:11:45,080 --> 02:11:46,080
Read your notes.

3896
02:11:46,360 --> 02:11:46,920
So here we go.

3897
02:11:47,000 --> 02:11:48,520
So we got a lot of donors at

3898
02:11:48,520 --> 02:11:48,840
the meetup.

3899
02:11:48,840 --> 02:11:49,920
These are all over 50.

3900
02:11:51,740 --> 02:11:54,100
Lawrence Wolf starts this off in Oakland and

3901
02:11:54,100 --> 02:11:55,380
he came in with 350.

3902
02:11:56,520 --> 02:11:58,460
So he's the executive producer who put him

3903
02:11:58,460 --> 02:11:59,060
on the list.

3904
02:12:00,100 --> 02:12:01,360
And he wasn't going to...

3905
02:12:01,360 --> 02:12:03,100
He says, ITM gentlemen, I wasn't going to

3906
02:12:03,100 --> 02:12:03,500
donate.

3907
02:12:04,520 --> 02:12:06,640
As a baron, I felt I had proverbially

3908
02:12:06,640 --> 02:12:08,100
killed my 10 men.

3909
02:12:08,680 --> 02:12:09,420
Wait, what's his name?

3910
02:12:10,000 --> 02:12:12,200
This is Lawrence Wolf.

3911
02:12:12,480 --> 02:12:16,040
W-O-L-F-L-A-W-R

3912
02:12:16,040 --> 02:12:18,440
-E-N-C-E-F, Wolf.

3913
02:12:19,000 --> 02:12:20,580
So he'll be executive producer.

3914
02:12:20,840 --> 02:12:21,560
Yep, got it.

3915
02:12:23,180 --> 02:12:24,920
He says, as a baron, I felt I

3916
02:12:24,920 --> 02:12:26,940
had proverbially killed my 10 men.

3917
02:12:27,000 --> 02:12:28,640
I never heard that phrase, but I can

3918
02:12:28,640 --> 02:12:29,340
understand it.

3919
02:12:29,920 --> 02:12:32,960
I also give recurrent monthly donations.

3920
02:12:33,000 --> 02:12:34,560
So I thought I'd wait this one out.

3921
02:12:35,080 --> 02:12:37,680
However, my wife bought a chair for our

3922
02:12:37,680 --> 02:12:38,700
cat, Alex.

3923
02:12:39,760 --> 02:12:43,020
It has sacrificial furniture for him to destroy.

3924
02:12:43,220 --> 02:12:45,640
When we removed the chair from its box,

3925
02:12:45,800 --> 02:12:48,220
we saw that it was orange color.

3926
02:12:48,720 --> 02:12:49,880
I looked at the tag.

3927
02:12:49,980 --> 02:12:52,200
The tag was described as curry.

3928
02:12:52,720 --> 02:12:53,200
No, no.

3929
02:12:53,880 --> 02:12:56,460
This morning, I also woke up to a

3930
02:12:56,460 --> 02:12:57,360
raspy meow.

3931
02:12:57,720 --> 02:13:00,680
He's going on 18 years and he's deaf.

3932
02:13:00,780 --> 02:13:02,200
He's going on to the cat.

3933
02:13:02,300 --> 02:13:03,320
I checked the time.

3934
02:13:03,420 --> 02:13:04,800
It was 3.33 in the morning.

3935
02:13:05,100 --> 02:13:05,540
Too early.

3936
02:13:05,660 --> 02:13:06,480
I went back to sleep.

3937
02:13:06,820 --> 02:13:09,060
Upon waking, I found something in the bed

3938
02:13:09,060 --> 02:13:12,420
covers that should have been deposited in the

3939
02:13:12,420 --> 02:13:13,220
cat box.

3940
02:13:14,620 --> 02:13:16,240
Enclosed for $350.

3941
02:13:18,240 --> 02:13:19,500
I counted it.

3942
02:13:19,580 --> 02:13:20,860
So it's not 250.

3943
02:13:21,500 --> 02:13:24,200
I get a slave's mac and cheese.

3944
02:13:24,520 --> 02:13:24,960
Adios.

3945
02:13:25,460 --> 02:13:25,740
Slaves.

3946
02:13:25,860 --> 02:13:26,560
Oh, yes.

3947
02:13:27,040 --> 02:13:27,520
Okay.

3948
02:13:27,980 --> 02:13:28,460
I know.

3949
02:13:28,480 --> 02:13:29,400
I know what it means.

3950
02:13:29,680 --> 02:13:31,160
Slaves mac and cheese.

3951
02:13:31,320 --> 02:13:32,040
Yes, of course.

3952
02:13:33,060 --> 02:13:35,080
You slaves can get used to mac and

3953
02:13:35,080 --> 02:13:35,320
cheese.

3954
02:13:35,600 --> 02:13:36,120
Mac and cheese.

3955
02:13:37,320 --> 02:13:38,420
Macaroni and cheese.

3956
02:13:38,700 --> 02:13:40,240
Cheddar melted together.

3957
02:13:43,400 --> 02:13:46,220
I hope he didn't get toxo from that.

3958
02:13:46,360 --> 02:13:47,540
Well, I probably already has it.

3959
02:13:47,760 --> 02:13:48,580
Yeah, you're right.

3960
02:13:48,940 --> 02:13:52,600
K-O-6-E-J-E-73 is

3961
02:13:52,600 --> 02:13:53,140
to him.

3962
02:13:53,320 --> 02:13:54,060
Hold on a second.

3963
02:13:54,160 --> 02:13:55,300
Also executive producer?

3964
02:13:56,080 --> 02:13:56,560
Yep.

3965
02:13:56,840 --> 02:13:58,440
So what is it?

3966
02:13:58,720 --> 02:14:05,200
K-O- Oh, K-O- K

3967
02:14:05,200 --> 02:14:07,020
-O-6-E-J-E.

3968
02:14:08,040 --> 02:14:08,180
Okay.

3969
02:14:08,340 --> 02:14:12,340
That would be Kilo 06 Echo Juliet Echo.

3970
02:14:12,600 --> 02:14:13,100
Come on, man.

3971
02:14:13,140 --> 02:14:14,000
Show your ham cred.

3972
02:14:15,240 --> 02:14:15,480
Yeah.

3973
02:14:15,900 --> 02:14:18,080
You know, it's pretty clear.

3974
02:14:18,640 --> 02:14:18,820
Okay.

3975
02:14:19,120 --> 02:14:20,800
Carolyn Kostopoulos.

3976
02:14:20,940 --> 02:14:23,060
O is an Oscar, not zero Oscar.

3977
02:14:23,480 --> 02:14:23,580
Okay.

3978
02:14:24,120 --> 02:14:24,560
Oscar.

3979
02:14:24,860 --> 02:14:25,020
Yes.

3980
02:14:25,660 --> 02:14:25,880
Who?

3981
02:14:26,160 --> 02:14:27,020
Who's the next one?

3982
02:14:28,100 --> 02:14:29,220
Carolyn Kostopoulos.

3983
02:14:29,660 --> 02:14:31,320
And for some dumb reason, I didn't put

3984
02:14:31,320 --> 02:14:32,980
her amount on here.

3985
02:14:32,980 --> 02:14:33,800
Kostopoulos.

3986
02:14:33,900 --> 02:14:35,160
You have to spell that for me.

3987
02:14:37,580 --> 02:14:39,000
Please accept my third donation.

3988
02:14:39,120 --> 02:14:40,160
I have a couple of corrections I'd like

3989
02:14:40,160 --> 02:14:40,540
to make.

3990
02:14:41,000 --> 02:14:42,240
On one show a while back, and I'm

3991
02:14:42,240 --> 02:14:43,400
sorry, I can't remember the episode.

3992
02:14:43,540 --> 02:14:46,480
You both ridiculed POTS as the best fad

3993
02:14:46,480 --> 02:14:49,200
illness that hypochondriacs were suddenly suffering from.

3994
02:14:49,500 --> 02:14:52,000
Sorry, but POTS, P-O-T-S, is

3995
02:14:52,000 --> 02:14:53,860
very real and caused by the COVID-19

3996
02:14:53,860 --> 02:14:55,100
mRNA vaccines.

3997
02:14:56,800 --> 02:14:58,720
These poor people lose control of their heart

3998
02:14:58,720 --> 02:14:59,020
rate.

3999
02:14:59,320 --> 02:15:00,900
We corrected that later.

4000
02:15:01,480 --> 02:15:02,240
I believe so.

4001
02:15:02,240 --> 02:15:02,780
Yeah.

4002
02:15:02,920 --> 02:15:04,340
I have a friend who had the same

4003
02:15:04,340 --> 02:15:05,200
illness she goes on.

4004
02:15:07,060 --> 02:15:10,360
And she goes on, I'm trying to, it's

4005
02:15:10,360 --> 02:15:10,800
kind of funny.

4006
02:15:10,800 --> 02:15:11,600
You're well organized.

4007
02:15:12,320 --> 02:15:13,060
I'm sorry.

4008
02:15:13,160 --> 02:15:14,280
I mean, there's a big pile of these

4009
02:15:14,280 --> 02:15:14,520
notes.

4010
02:15:16,080 --> 02:15:18,500
I will straighten out Carolyn's note later.

4011
02:15:18,860 --> 02:15:19,180
Okay.

4012
02:15:19,420 --> 02:15:21,120
So I'm going to skip by her.

4013
02:15:21,200 --> 02:15:21,540
Okay.

4014
02:15:21,860 --> 02:15:26,340
And go on to a card from Beth

4015
02:15:26,340 --> 02:15:26,820
Elliott.

4016
02:15:27,260 --> 02:15:28,120
Beth Elliott?

4017
02:15:28,820 --> 02:15:29,240
Yeah.

4018
02:15:30,000 --> 02:15:30,260
Yeah.

4019
02:15:30,900 --> 02:15:32,180
2-22-22.

4020
02:15:33,100 --> 02:15:33,440
22.

4021
02:15:33,920 --> 02:15:34,920
Thank you for your courage.

4022
02:15:35,380 --> 02:15:36,900
Pretty much, it's very simple.

4023
02:15:38,300 --> 02:15:39,180
And then...

4024
02:15:39,180 --> 02:15:40,320
So she's an associate.

4025
02:15:40,440 --> 02:15:43,140
And I'll get to the rest of these

4026
02:15:43,140 --> 02:15:44,120
in the second half of the show.

4027
02:15:44,260 --> 02:15:44,520
Okay.

4028
02:15:44,620 --> 02:15:45,920
Well, so she's an associate.

4029
02:15:46,160 --> 02:15:47,160
I got to do this right.

4030
02:15:47,840 --> 02:15:48,620
Yeah, you do.

4031
02:15:48,820 --> 02:15:49,020
Okay.

4032
02:15:49,060 --> 02:15:50,700
I'm trying to do this right, but you're

4033
02:15:50,700 --> 02:15:51,540
not being very helpful.

4034
02:15:52,520 --> 02:15:52,800
Okay.

4035
02:15:52,800 --> 02:15:53,260
I'm not.

4036
02:15:53,360 --> 02:15:53,800
I'm sorry.

4037
02:15:54,000 --> 02:15:55,480
No, you're anything but helpful.

4038
02:15:55,960 --> 02:15:56,840
Here we go.

4039
02:15:57,580 --> 02:15:57,680
We...

4040
02:15:58,420 --> 02:15:59,480
Can I...

4041
02:15:59,860 --> 02:16:00,280
Okay.

4042
02:16:00,400 --> 02:16:00,900
I'm back on track.

4043
02:16:00,920 --> 02:16:02,200
Jordan Goodfellow.

4044
02:16:02,980 --> 02:16:03,940
Davenport, Florida.

4045
02:16:04,140 --> 02:16:05,240
3-33.

4046
02:16:05,820 --> 02:16:07,180
Sanity is still intact.

4047
02:16:07,240 --> 02:16:09,000
Thanks to the best podcast in the universe.

4048
02:16:09,120 --> 02:16:11,260
This is the only podcast I listen to

4049
02:16:11,260 --> 02:16:11,880
every week.

4050
02:16:12,200 --> 02:16:12,660
Thank you.

4051
02:16:12,880 --> 02:16:14,300
Here's to four more years.

4052
02:16:18,010 --> 02:16:18,690
Oh, I got it.

4053
02:16:18,730 --> 02:16:19,870
I found another pile.

4054
02:16:21,370 --> 02:16:24,770
Are these executives or associate executives?

4055
02:16:24,990 --> 02:16:27,170
A couple are in here as executives.

4056
02:16:27,170 --> 02:16:28,810
This is associate executive.

4057
02:16:28,970 --> 02:16:29,950
I just want to get these before I

4058
02:16:29,950 --> 02:16:30,810
do the latter ones.

4059
02:16:30,950 --> 02:16:31,750
Duca, San Francisco.

4060
02:16:32,150 --> 02:16:32,750
220.

4061
02:16:33,070 --> 02:16:33,750
No note.

4062
02:16:34,549 --> 02:16:34,830
Okay.

4063
02:16:35,490 --> 02:16:36,370
Double up karma.

4064
02:16:36,510 --> 02:16:37,490
Duca, San Francisco.

4065
02:16:39,770 --> 02:16:43,170
You've got karma.

4066
02:16:45,129 --> 02:16:46,330
Robert Montoya.

4067
02:16:47,129 --> 02:16:47,410
Associate.

4068
02:16:48,209 --> 02:16:49,010
Black Knight.

4069
02:16:49,150 --> 02:16:49,629
200.

4070
02:16:49,850 --> 02:16:50,070
Yes.

4071
02:16:50,150 --> 02:16:50,549
Associate.

4072
02:16:50,709 --> 02:16:51,430
Pleasant Hill.

4073
02:16:52,230 --> 02:16:52,730
Okay.

4074
02:16:55,709 --> 02:16:57,430
The rest of these are lower.

4075
02:16:57,650 --> 02:16:59,150
I would do them in the second half.

4076
02:17:01,570 --> 02:17:02,129
50.

4077
02:17:02,910 --> 02:17:05,570
I got 200 from John Siebert.

4078
02:17:05,709 --> 02:17:07,469
S-I-E-B-E-R-T in

4079
02:17:07,469 --> 02:17:08,129
Auburn.

4080
02:17:09,090 --> 02:17:09,389
Okay.

4081
02:17:10,389 --> 02:17:11,510
John Siebert.

4082
02:17:11,790 --> 02:17:13,889
Hey, didn't Sir Julian donate?

4083
02:17:15,250 --> 02:17:16,750
Sir Julian did donate.

4084
02:17:16,910 --> 02:17:17,469
Okay, good.

4085
02:17:18,389 --> 02:17:20,129
He's back out in California.

4086
02:17:20,209 --> 02:17:21,650
He's back working...

4087
02:17:21,650 --> 02:17:22,690
Wait, he was...

4088
02:17:22,690 --> 02:17:23,830
That's interesting.

4089
02:17:23,969 --> 02:17:25,209
I thought he was in D.C. I

4090
02:17:25,209 --> 02:17:26,670
don't know what's going on with him.

4091
02:17:26,830 --> 02:17:27,469
Anyway, yes.

4092
02:17:28,129 --> 02:17:28,430
Continue.

4093
02:17:28,629 --> 02:17:30,330
Now I can just get these out of

4094
02:17:30,330 --> 02:17:30,770
the way.

4095
02:17:32,330 --> 02:17:33,950
Asha and Cabril.

4096
02:17:34,670 --> 02:17:35,129
150.

4097
02:17:38,370 --> 02:17:39,770
They scribbled their last names.

4098
02:17:39,830 --> 02:17:40,610
I couldn't read it.

4099
02:17:41,889 --> 02:17:44,309
Aaron Cole, Knight of the Strawberry Fog.

4100
02:17:46,070 --> 02:17:47,330
I don't know where...

4101
02:17:47,330 --> 02:17:47,990
Watsonville.

4102
02:17:48,610 --> 02:17:49,070
100.

4103
02:17:51,330 --> 02:17:52,250
Sir Zolbat.

4104
02:17:53,389 --> 02:17:54,830
ITM, 100.

4105
02:17:59,049 --> 02:18:02,049
50 from Sir Richie Rich, the guy with

4106
02:18:02,049 --> 02:18:03,450
the fancy hair.

4107
02:18:05,330 --> 02:18:10,030
Angela Garcia, the artist from San Francisco.

4108
02:18:10,190 --> 02:18:10,570
100.

4109
02:18:11,730 --> 02:18:13,350
I said John Siebert already.

4110
02:18:13,610 --> 02:18:16,469
We have 100 from Fast Eddie.

4111
02:18:16,910 --> 02:18:17,629
Fast Eddie.

4112
02:18:18,430 --> 02:18:19,330
Fast Eddie.

4113
02:18:20,010 --> 02:18:24,049
And then we have these little guys here,

4114
02:18:24,049 --> 02:18:25,850
which is little notes.

4115
02:18:26,510 --> 02:18:29,070
85 bucks from Crazy Steve.

4116
02:18:29,770 --> 02:18:30,330
Coins.

4117
02:18:30,570 --> 02:18:31,209
Silver coin.

4118
02:18:34,129 --> 02:18:36,309
Lai and Sophie, 100.

4119
02:18:39,049 --> 02:18:39,990
She wants some...

4120
02:18:39,990 --> 02:18:40,969
They want Job Karma.

4121
02:18:41,110 --> 02:18:41,910
We'll give them that at the end.

4122
02:18:43,889 --> 02:18:49,670
Gustavo Visali and Maria with a Springsteen donation

4123
02:18:49,670 --> 02:18:50,730
of 75.

4124
02:18:50,730 --> 02:18:51,469
Yeah.

4125
02:18:53,910 --> 02:18:55,450
And is there anything last on here?

4126
02:18:58,010 --> 02:18:59,670
I think that's it.

4127
02:19:00,010 --> 02:19:00,350
All right.

4128
02:19:00,910 --> 02:19:02,670
Well, sounds like you had a good time.

4129
02:19:02,870 --> 02:19:03,469
Did you have fun?

4130
02:19:03,629 --> 02:19:05,230
People said you left early.

4131
02:19:05,889 --> 02:19:06,730
Does anybody...

4132
02:19:06,730 --> 02:19:08,469
I stayed there two whole hours.

4133
02:19:08,870 --> 02:19:10,910
If anybody didn't get mentioned, let me know.

4134
02:19:11,070 --> 02:19:12,370
We'll put you on as a make good.

4135
02:19:12,750 --> 02:19:16,330
We will continue now with Alex Thomas, Associate

4136
02:19:16,330 --> 02:19:17,270
Executive Producer.

4137
02:19:17,629 --> 02:19:18,070
Oh, no, wait.

4138
02:19:18,389 --> 02:19:19,350
Sir Paul Snyder.

4139
02:19:19,430 --> 02:19:19,809
I'm sorry.

4140
02:19:20,530 --> 02:19:21,930
Please credit me as Sir Paul Snyder.

4141
02:19:21,930 --> 02:19:23,350
Also, add me to the birthday list for

4142
02:19:23,350 --> 02:19:24,090
February 4th.

4143
02:19:24,090 --> 02:19:24,410
Thanks.

4144
02:19:26,650 --> 02:19:28,610
$455.98 Canadian.

4145
02:19:28,770 --> 02:19:29,770
My money's worthless.

4146
02:19:30,350 --> 02:19:30,610
Yes.

4147
02:19:31,570 --> 02:19:35,450
Alex Thomas, Northcote, Victoria in Australia, $250.

4148
02:19:37,010 --> 02:19:41,209
Michael Kellner, $242.17. He says, this is

4149
02:19:41,209 --> 02:19:43,450
the value of two silver dollars plus PayPal

4150
02:19:43,450 --> 02:19:43,969
fees.

4151
02:19:44,370 --> 02:19:46,370
And he says, Jingle, just send your cash

4152
02:19:46,370 --> 02:19:49,570
song from phoneboy.com.

4153
02:19:50,170 --> 02:19:52,070
We have a whole end of show mix

4154
02:19:52,070 --> 02:19:53,370
for you for that one, but I'll play

4155
02:19:53,370 --> 02:19:54,450
the shorty for you now.

4156
02:19:54,610 --> 02:19:55,790
I know a lot of people want to

4157
02:19:55,790 --> 02:19:57,370
send blankets or water.

4158
02:19:58,090 --> 02:19:59,310
Just send your cash.

4159
02:20:00,390 --> 02:20:02,950
I'll take it from there with Hylin Craigs

4160
02:20:02,950 --> 02:20:06,350
in Colorado Springs, $2.30. We love you

4161
02:20:06,350 --> 02:20:08,810
too and really appreciate your work.

4162
02:20:09,410 --> 02:20:10,610
Please keep it going.

4163
02:20:10,990 --> 02:20:11,750
Arguments and all.

4164
02:20:11,830 --> 02:20:13,410
By the way, we got some feedback from

4165
02:20:13,410 --> 02:20:16,850
the Meetup, which had an inordinate number of

4166
02:20:16,850 --> 02:20:18,250
attractive women, I should say.

4167
02:20:18,250 --> 02:20:20,550
And they kind of appreciate bickering.

4168
02:20:20,790 --> 02:20:23,530
They think it adds some dimensionality to an

4169
02:20:23,530 --> 02:20:26,290
otherwise dry show.

4170
02:20:26,790 --> 02:20:30,170
Well, they like the bickering.

4171
02:20:30,290 --> 02:20:31,850
The chicks like bickering, man.

4172
02:20:33,490 --> 02:20:34,350
Yeah, bickering.

4173
02:20:34,930 --> 02:20:35,350
Interesting.

4174
02:20:35,530 --> 02:20:36,950
Which is a town in Colorado.

4175
02:20:37,270 --> 02:20:37,710
Interesting.

4176
02:20:38,930 --> 02:20:43,930
Munitions Master is in Kettering, Ohio with a

4177
02:20:43,930 --> 02:20:46,630
row of ducks, $222.22. Ahoy, gents.

4178
02:20:48,470 --> 02:20:49,490
Chupacabra donation.

4179
02:20:49,670 --> 02:20:50,690
Long time listener.

4180
02:20:50,870 --> 02:20:51,690
First time donor.

4181
02:20:51,850 --> 02:20:52,410
Please deduce.

4182
02:20:54,010 --> 02:20:55,750
You've been deduced.

4183
02:20:56,590 --> 02:20:58,330
Love the show and all the work you

4184
02:20:58,330 --> 02:20:58,830
guys do.

4185
02:20:58,970 --> 02:21:00,150
Three out of five stars.

4186
02:21:00,370 --> 02:21:00,610
What?

4187
02:21:01,690 --> 02:21:04,670
That's a fail on Uber.

4188
02:21:04,890 --> 02:21:06,090
Three out of five stars.

4189
02:21:06,530 --> 02:21:07,690
Would not change a thing.

4190
02:21:08,110 --> 02:21:10,630
Would like to shout out the Chupacabra canoe.

4191
02:21:11,090 --> 02:21:12,270
Those guys are awesome.

4192
02:21:12,750 --> 02:21:14,410
We listen to and discuss the show on

4193
02:21:14,410 --> 02:21:16,350
all of our canoe trips and conclaves.

4194
02:21:16,350 --> 02:21:20,190
Check out chupacabracanoe.com for canoes, paddles, merch,

4195
02:21:20,370 --> 02:21:21,070
and blogs.

4196
02:21:21,470 --> 02:21:24,790
Now selling canoes handmade by River Surfer.

4197
02:21:25,210 --> 02:21:27,610
If anyone in the Northeastern Ohio area is

4198
02:21:27,610 --> 02:21:30,230
interested in a canoeing meetup, that would be

4199
02:21:30,230 --> 02:21:30,490
cool.

4200
02:21:30,910 --> 02:21:32,970
Visit the website and submit via the contact

4201
02:21:32,970 --> 02:21:33,690
to the portal.

4202
02:21:33,910 --> 02:21:34,370
Ah, the portal.

4203
02:21:35,010 --> 02:21:37,470
I would like to call out Summer Sausage

4204
02:21:37,470 --> 02:21:39,330
and Sea Cow as douchebags.

4205
02:21:39,450 --> 02:21:39,650
All right.

4206
02:21:41,190 --> 02:21:42,510
And Sea Cow.

4207
02:21:42,890 --> 02:21:43,490
Douchebag.

4208
02:21:44,570 --> 02:21:49,170
Uh, I'd like to call Jingles, Goat Karma,

4209
02:21:49,410 --> 02:21:50,550
and Al Sharpton Respect.

4210
02:21:50,950 --> 02:21:52,030
Thank you for your courage.

4211
02:21:52,250 --> 02:21:55,250
Paddles up, says Munitions Master, and he is

4212
02:21:55,250 --> 02:21:57,130
in Kettering, Ohio.

4213
02:22:03,350 --> 02:22:06,270
You've got karma.

4214
02:22:07,810 --> 02:22:11,290
Sir Candyman in Somerset, California at 214.14.

4215
02:22:11,290 --> 02:22:15,090
This donation is a switcheroo to my partner

4216
02:22:15,090 --> 02:22:19,530
in crime and lover of life, uh, my

4217
02:22:19,530 --> 02:22:19,950
gia?

4218
02:22:20,070 --> 02:22:20,670
My gia.

4219
02:22:21,430 --> 02:22:22,350
My gia.

4220
02:22:22,510 --> 02:22:23,390
Okay, my gia.

4221
02:22:23,790 --> 02:22:24,510
My gia.

4222
02:22:25,030 --> 02:22:26,750
You are my heart and my soul, he

4223
02:22:26,750 --> 02:22:27,130
writes.

4224
02:22:27,650 --> 02:22:30,610
To many, the world might seem upside down,

4225
02:22:30,670 --> 02:22:32,250
but to those of us who know better,

4226
02:22:32,490 --> 02:22:33,930
it just seems like an act.

4227
02:22:34,530 --> 02:22:36,550
Thanks to the No Agenda Show, we know

4228
02:22:36,550 --> 02:22:37,010
better.

4229
02:22:37,510 --> 02:22:39,070
But this is the month of love, and

4230
02:22:39,070 --> 02:22:39,890
we'll focus on that.

4231
02:22:39,930 --> 02:22:40,890
That was Black History Month.

4232
02:22:40,890 --> 02:22:43,470
I never stopped feeling like the luckiest man

4233
02:22:43,470 --> 02:22:44,010
in the world.

4234
02:22:44,530 --> 02:22:46,670
My, my gia.

4235
02:22:46,830 --> 02:22:47,310
My gia.

4236
02:22:48,010 --> 02:22:48,750
My gia.

4237
02:22:48,870 --> 02:22:49,370
My gia.

4238
02:22:50,070 --> 02:22:53,490
You make my life worth living, or striving

4239
02:22:53,490 --> 02:22:53,770
for.

4240
02:22:53,890 --> 02:22:56,450
You make a better, make me a better

4241
02:22:56,450 --> 02:22:57,070
man every day.

4242
02:22:57,150 --> 02:22:59,210
These are times when we are, that we

4243
02:22:59,210 --> 02:23:01,930
are rough and tumble together, but ultimately, we

4244
02:23:01,930 --> 02:23:03,170
are always better for it.

4245
02:23:03,510 --> 02:23:06,190
So this is an ode to my, my

4246
02:23:06,190 --> 02:23:06,490
gia.

4247
02:23:06,490 --> 02:23:06,990
My gia.

4248
02:23:07,170 --> 02:23:09,630
So if you feel love, he must be

4249
02:23:09,630 --> 02:23:10,870
in the doghouse or something.

4250
02:23:10,870 --> 02:23:13,670
So if you feel love like I do,

4251
02:23:13,770 --> 02:23:14,170
share it.

4252
02:23:14,250 --> 02:23:16,450
Let the people you love know how you

4253
02:23:16,450 --> 02:23:16,850
feel.

4254
02:23:17,030 --> 02:23:19,690
At Little John's Candies, whether it's heart-shaped

4255
02:23:19,690 --> 02:23:21,050
or not, we have you covered.

4256
02:23:21,630 --> 02:23:23,870
We share the love and donate to the

4257
02:23:23,870 --> 02:23:24,850
best podcast in the world.

4258
02:23:25,210 --> 02:23:29,130
No, no gingles can express my love, is

4259
02:23:29,130 --> 02:23:29,570
what he wrote.

4260
02:23:29,990 --> 02:23:32,390
AKA, or Sir Candyman.

4261
02:23:32,610 --> 02:23:33,410
Okay, there's a plug.

4262
02:23:34,870 --> 02:23:35,790
Beautiful plug.

4263
02:23:36,770 --> 02:23:38,630
And he's back, Eli the Coffee Guy from

4264
02:23:38,630 --> 02:23:39,550
Bensonville, Illinois.

4265
02:23:39,550 --> 02:23:43,290
Eli, Darren O'Neill is trying to scam

4266
02:23:43,290 --> 02:23:44,650
some free coffee off of you.

4267
02:23:45,170 --> 02:23:45,690
Just saying.

4268
02:23:45,790 --> 02:23:47,050
He keeps complaining about it.

4269
02:23:47,370 --> 02:23:47,890
Send him a bag.

4270
02:23:48,090 --> 02:23:48,790
Send him a bag.

4271
02:23:49,130 --> 02:23:49,730
He plugs you.

4272
02:23:50,170 --> 02:23:51,110
20201, he does.

4273
02:23:51,510 --> 02:23:52,810
Interesting timing out of Georgia.

4274
02:23:53,290 --> 02:23:55,810
Tulsi Gabbard, DNI, was present during the FBI

4275
02:23:55,810 --> 02:23:57,910
raid on the Fulton County Election Office.

4276
02:23:58,110 --> 02:24:00,270
Yes, there is very little media coverage.

4277
02:24:00,590 --> 02:24:01,570
Hmm, interesting.

4278
02:24:01,770 --> 02:24:02,430
No, it's not true.

4279
02:24:02,610 --> 02:24:03,230
There's coverage.

4280
02:24:03,630 --> 02:24:06,170
Plus, Sidney Powell is popping back up again.

4281
02:24:06,370 --> 02:24:07,270
Yeah, I've seen that too.

4282
02:24:07,370 --> 02:24:09,310
Maybe they'll finally release the Kraken.

4283
02:24:09,310 --> 02:24:10,410
Maybe it means nothing.

4284
02:24:11,510 --> 02:24:13,170
I actually have some clips about that.

4285
02:24:13,750 --> 02:24:15,630
With the slow roll of the Epstein files,

4286
02:24:15,750 --> 02:24:18,210
another round of mostly peaceful riots, it does

4287
02:24:18,210 --> 02:24:20,250
feel like election season is warming up.

4288
02:24:20,370 --> 02:24:20,930
He knows.

4289
02:24:21,270 --> 02:24:23,690
Producers should elect to drink good coffee.

4290
02:24:24,370 --> 02:24:26,330
Visit gigawattcoffeeroasters.com.

4291
02:24:26,430 --> 02:24:28,710
Use code ITM20 for 20% off your

4292

4293
02:24:29,250 --> 02:24:30,650
And he says stay caffeinated.

4294
02:24:30,770 --> 02:24:32,950
His name is Eli the Coffee Guy.

4295
02:24:34,510 --> 02:24:36,570
I should mention something about this.

4296
02:24:36,730 --> 02:24:37,630
We don't have any clips.

4297
02:24:37,690 --> 02:24:38,750
I don't think of Tulsi.

4298
02:24:38,750 --> 02:24:41,030
No, she's been very quiet.

4299
02:24:41,570 --> 02:24:44,350
But they have been promoting this idea that,

4300
02:24:44,730 --> 02:24:47,650
oh, what, you know, to say it's not

4301
02:24:47,650 --> 02:24:51,390
covered, that he hasn't been watching the lefties.

4302
02:24:51,690 --> 02:24:53,450
The left-wing media is covering it.

4303
02:24:53,590 --> 02:24:55,430
And it always says the same thing.

4304
02:24:55,470 --> 02:24:56,150
I wish I had a clip.

4305
02:24:56,470 --> 02:24:57,590
But they say the same thing.

4306
02:24:57,630 --> 02:24:58,430
It goes like this.

4307
02:24:58,690 --> 02:25:00,270
What is she doing there?

4308
02:25:00,310 --> 02:25:02,050
She's supposed to be in charge of the

4309
02:25:02,050 --> 02:25:04,590
national intelligence, which is about foreign countries.

4310
02:25:04,870 --> 02:25:05,990
No, she's not.

4311
02:25:05,990 --> 02:25:08,450
No, she is not in charge of foreign

4312
02:25:08,450 --> 02:25:08,990
intelligence.

4313
02:25:09,250 --> 02:25:11,690
She's in charge of all intelligence, which includes

4314
02:25:11,690 --> 02:25:12,770
the FBI.

4315
02:25:13,690 --> 02:25:14,090
Yes.

4316
02:25:14,910 --> 02:25:16,430
So she has all the right in the

4317
02:25:16,430 --> 02:25:17,810
world to be there if she wants to

4318
02:25:17,810 --> 02:25:18,070
be.

4319
02:25:18,590 --> 02:25:19,370
Well put.

4320
02:25:20,470 --> 02:25:22,450
Anyway, Linda Lubatkin is up.

4321
02:25:22,590 --> 02:25:23,270
Oh, look at her.

4322
02:25:23,430 --> 02:25:25,970
She's in Castle Rock, Colorado.

4323
02:25:26,290 --> 02:25:28,710
$200, Jobs Karma for a competitive edge.

4324
02:25:29,090 --> 02:25:30,510
With the resume that gets results, go to

4325
02:25:30,510 --> 02:25:31,670
imagemakersinc.com.

4326
02:25:32,090 --> 02:25:38,790
Uh, Linda applies executive level positioning to career

4327
02:25:38,790 --> 02:25:41,050
transition at every stage.

4328
02:25:41,430 --> 02:25:41,650
Whoa.

4329
02:25:41,930 --> 02:25:44,230
New copy, new copy, new copy.

4330
02:25:44,310 --> 02:25:45,850
That's imagemakersinc with a K.

4331
02:25:46,210 --> 02:25:47,830
And work with Linda Lu, Duchess of Jobs

4332
02:25:47,830 --> 02:25:51,130
and writer of winning a resume's best, Linda.

4333
02:25:51,490 --> 02:25:54,930
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.

4334
02:25:55,070 --> 02:25:56,590
Let's vote for jobs.

4335
02:25:57,990 --> 02:25:58,670
Karma.

4336
02:25:59,120 --> 02:26:02,410
And we have a, she's our last.

4337
02:26:02,490 --> 02:26:03,250
No, we have two more.

4338
02:26:03,410 --> 02:26:05,350
Eric Kessler, Kansas city, Missouri.

4339
02:26:05,490 --> 02:26:06,310
My pre $200.

4340
02:26:06,610 --> 02:26:08,730
My appreciation to you both for the best

4341
02:26:08,730 --> 02:26:09,810
podcast in the universe.

4342
02:26:09,910 --> 02:26:12,050
Can I get an F cancer and prayer

4343
02:26:12,050 --> 02:26:13,850
for my dad's upcoming surgery?

4344
02:26:14,390 --> 02:26:15,810
Yes, he's covered, Eric.

4345
02:26:15,970 --> 02:26:17,090
No worries at all.

4346
02:26:17,190 --> 02:26:18,110
Here's the karma.

4347
02:26:22,240 --> 02:26:23,820
You've got karma.

4348
02:26:26,560 --> 02:26:26,980
Okay.

4349
02:26:27,040 --> 02:26:28,240
This is a long note, but I can

4350
02:26:28,240 --> 02:26:29,120
squeeze it in.

4351
02:26:29,680 --> 02:26:32,220
Except if there's anything after the name, Michael

4352
02:26:32,220 --> 02:26:34,600
Burdette, Adam and John is a follow up

4353
02:26:34,600 --> 02:26:35,720
note to my $200.

4354
02:26:36,000 --> 02:26:36,820
He donated $200.

4355
02:26:37,220 --> 02:26:38,160
Michael Burdette.

4356
02:26:38,780 --> 02:26:41,220
Social producer donations Saturday night.

4357
02:26:41,360 --> 02:26:43,020
I wanted to take this opportunity to plug

4358
02:26:43,020 --> 02:26:44,480
my adopted human resource.

4359
02:26:44,760 --> 02:26:45,120
Girl Scout.

4360
02:26:46,100 --> 02:26:47,180
Girl Scouts.

4361
02:26:49,040 --> 02:26:49,780
I'm sorry.

4362
02:26:50,060 --> 02:26:54,040
Girl Scouts, cookie site, a digital cookie.girlscouts

4363
02:26:54,040 --> 02:26:54,500
.org.

4364
02:26:54,580 --> 02:26:56,800
This is funny because I'm surprised that this

4365
02:26:56,800 --> 02:26:58,240
hasn't been done before, which is.

4366
02:26:58,760 --> 02:27:00,840
Girl Scout cookies online.

4367
02:27:01,100 --> 02:27:03,760
No, I'll put the link.

4368
02:27:03,800 --> 02:27:06,120
I'll put the link next to his next

4369
02:27:06,120 --> 02:27:06,360
to his.

4370
02:27:06,420 --> 02:27:08,000
If you're a boomer like me and don't

4371
02:27:08,000 --> 02:27:10,140
need another source of sugar and carbs, pick

4372
02:27:10,140 --> 02:27:12,480
up the $6 donation to sweet acts of

4373
02:27:12,480 --> 02:27:14,480
kindness or send a gift box of six

4374
02:27:14,480 --> 02:27:16,060
cookie packages to a friend.

4375
02:27:16,700 --> 02:27:18,720
By the way, the Girl Scout cookies are

4376
02:27:18,720 --> 02:27:18,980
good.

4377
02:27:19,400 --> 02:27:21,900
Even if you don't use Elizabeth's cookie site,

4378
02:27:22,360 --> 02:27:23,980
support your local Girl Scouts.

4379
02:27:23,980 --> 02:27:24,620
Sorry.

4380
02:27:24,800 --> 02:27:26,780
By the way, this is very creative to

4381
02:27:26,780 --> 02:27:29,440
have a Girl Scouts cookies website.

4382
02:27:29,780 --> 02:27:29,880
Yeah.

4383
02:27:30,000 --> 02:27:31,800
So I don't think they like the idea.

4384
02:27:31,960 --> 02:27:33,900
Well, it seems to be part of Girl

4385
02:27:33,900 --> 02:27:34,800
Scouts.org.

4386
02:27:34,900 --> 02:27:38,000
So I think they're doing it troop wide.

4387
02:27:38,660 --> 02:27:39,300
Oh, maybe.

4388
02:27:39,780 --> 02:27:40,020
Yeah.

4389
02:27:40,240 --> 02:27:40,900
It's pretty good.

4390
02:27:40,980 --> 02:27:42,800
You know, Girl Scouts usually show up at

4391
02:27:42,800 --> 02:27:44,740
the front of the Safeway or someplace and

4392
02:27:44,740 --> 02:27:45,060
they're there.

4393
02:27:45,160 --> 02:27:45,560
Yeah.

4394
02:27:45,780 --> 02:27:45,940
Yeah.

4395
02:27:45,940 --> 02:27:46,800
Buy some cookies.

4396
02:27:47,100 --> 02:27:47,860
And they're so cute.

4397
02:27:47,920 --> 02:27:49,480
And you're like, oh, of course, I'll buy

4398
02:27:49,480 --> 02:27:49,980
your cookies.

4399
02:27:50,300 --> 02:27:51,320
I'll buy your cookies.

4400
02:27:51,840 --> 02:27:53,180
Okay, we'll buy some cookies.

4401
02:27:54,120 --> 02:27:56,080
I always get the Thin Mints.

4402
02:27:56,380 --> 02:27:57,700
Yes, Thin Mints.

4403
02:27:57,800 --> 02:27:58,760
Thin Mints, baby.

4404
02:27:59,080 --> 02:28:00,120
The s'mores are good.

4405
02:28:00,520 --> 02:28:00,780
Yeah.

4406
02:28:02,520 --> 02:28:04,400
We have to pay for shipping on the

4407
02:28:04,400 --> 02:28:04,760
site.

4408
02:28:06,040 --> 02:28:06,480
Okay.

4409
02:28:06,940 --> 02:28:08,180
You can skip the rest of the note

4410
02:28:08,180 --> 02:28:08,600
if you want.

4411
02:28:08,820 --> 02:28:09,800
I will, but I will.

4412
02:28:10,080 --> 02:28:10,680
Let me stop.

4413
02:28:10,720 --> 02:28:13,500
No, let me read this because I read

4414
02:28:13,500 --> 02:28:15,100
this before and he sent me some clips

4415
02:28:15,100 --> 02:28:15,920
along with this.

4416
02:28:15,920 --> 02:28:22,100
He installed the Quen3 TTS, the 11 labs

4417
02:28:22,100 --> 02:28:25,040
alternative, the open source 11 labs alternative.

4418
02:28:25,160 --> 02:28:25,300
Right, which you recommended.

4419
02:28:25,880 --> 02:28:26,240
Yes.

4420
02:28:26,920 --> 02:28:30,980
And he sent us to, he said, after

4421
02:28:30,980 --> 02:28:33,460
sampling President Trump's voice, I created an audio

4422
02:28:33,460 --> 02:28:36,840
file of him touting our tech desk team,

4423
02:28:37,280 --> 02:28:40,160
suggesting we should win the UW Distinguished Staff

4424
02:28:40,160 --> 02:28:41,460
Award by a landslide.

4425
02:28:41,560 --> 02:28:42,100
Here it is.

4426
02:28:42,100 --> 02:28:45,300
These guys on the tech desk team are

4427
02:28:45,300 --> 02:28:48,760
the most outstanding technology experts I have ever

4428
02:28:48,760 --> 02:28:49,020
met.

4429
02:28:49,380 --> 02:28:51,660
It would be a crying shame if they

4430
02:28:51,660 --> 02:28:54,840
didn't win the University of Washington's Distinguished Staff

4431
02:28:54,840 --> 02:28:57,200
Award by a landslide.

4432
02:28:57,320 --> 02:28:58,060
I'm not kidding.

4433
02:28:58,740 --> 02:29:00,420
That's pretty good for open source.

4434
02:29:00,740 --> 02:29:01,280
It's close, it's close.

4435
02:29:01,540 --> 02:29:02,640
He also did one for us.

4436
02:29:02,820 --> 02:29:05,560
These guys are the best podcasters in the

4437
02:29:05,560 --> 02:29:06,080
universe.

4438
02:29:06,940 --> 02:29:07,900
It's not bad.

4439
02:29:08,220 --> 02:29:08,420
I like it.

4440
02:29:08,720 --> 02:29:09,420
It's not bad.

4441
02:29:09,920 --> 02:29:11,540
He says, Adam, thank you for your work

4442
02:29:11,540 --> 02:29:13,120
and boldness to share your belief in the

4443
02:29:13,120 --> 02:29:14,420
saving grace of Jesus Christ.

4444
02:29:14,580 --> 02:29:16,440
Tell Tina I love her show, Curry and

4445
02:29:16,440 --> 02:29:18,300
the Keeper, and I'm jealous of your trip

4446
02:29:18,300 --> 02:29:18,840
to Israel.

4447
02:29:20,600 --> 02:29:22,900
He says, also thanks to the greatest podcasting

4448
02:29:22,900 --> 02:29:25,220
universe that helped me navigate the mass hysteria

4449
02:29:25,220 --> 02:29:27,060
of COVID years and give me the confidence

4450
02:29:27,060 --> 02:29:29,520
to request a religious exemption to the COVID

4451
02:29:29,520 --> 02:29:32,680
mRNA shot so I'm spike protein free.

4452
02:29:33,360 --> 02:29:34,520
Thank you very much, Michael.

4453
02:29:34,580 --> 02:29:35,360
We appreciate that.

4454
02:29:35,400 --> 02:29:37,400
We appreciate all of these executive and associate

4455
02:29:37,400 --> 02:29:38,260
executive producers.

4456
02:29:38,360 --> 02:29:38,840
Your credits.

4457
02:29:38,840 --> 02:29:40,920
We'll be listed on the show notes page.

4458
02:29:40,980 --> 02:29:42,840
And as always, these credits are forever.

4459
02:29:43,360 --> 02:29:44,760
And you can use them anywhere.

4460
02:29:44,880 --> 02:29:46,900
Show business credits are recognized.

4461
02:29:47,480 --> 02:29:49,140
You can do what you're right.

4462
02:29:49,260 --> 02:29:50,240
What do you what are you huffing and

4463
02:29:50,240 --> 02:29:50,800
puffing about?

4464
02:29:51,240 --> 02:29:52,620
I had to clear my throat.

4465
02:29:52,720 --> 02:29:55,040
Okay, including imdb.com.

4466
02:29:55,100 --> 02:29:56,300
You can always put on your LinkedIn or

4467
02:29:56,300 --> 02:29:57,420
your social media profile.

4468
02:29:57,420 --> 02:29:58,940
We'll be thanking the rest of our supporters.

4469
02:29:59,080 --> 02:30:01,460
$50 in the second second business cards.

4470
02:30:02,200 --> 02:30:03,360
Always a good idea.

4471
02:30:03,560 --> 02:30:04,300
Thank you again.

4472
02:30:04,620 --> 02:30:07,800
Congratulations to the executive and associate executive producers.

4473
02:30:07,800 --> 02:30:09,380
Our formula is this.

4474
02:30:09,700 --> 02:30:10,900
We go out.

4475
02:30:11,280 --> 02:30:12,760
We hit people in the mouth.

4476
02:30:26,530 --> 02:30:30,770
I have a little m5m clip for you.

4477
02:30:31,110 --> 02:30:32,110
This is quite interesting.

4478
02:30:32,730 --> 02:30:35,390
The movie Melania has come out.

4479
02:30:36,950 --> 02:30:39,570
Yeah, which had a pretty decent opening.

4480
02:30:39,770 --> 02:30:43,390
That $8 million over $8 million in theaters,

4481
02:30:43,530 --> 02:30:44,430
which is surprising.

4482
02:30:44,530 --> 02:30:45,790
I think it came as the number three

4483
02:30:45,790 --> 02:30:46,470
movie.

4484
02:30:47,230 --> 02:30:49,130
Of course, it's always about the second week.

4485
02:30:49,150 --> 02:30:50,430
And if you have a friend who's in

4486
02:30:50,430 --> 02:30:52,870
the movie business, they always say, go to

4487
02:30:52,870 --> 02:30:54,410
go to the second weekend.

4488
02:30:54,450 --> 02:30:55,610
We need the second weekend.

4489
02:30:56,550 --> 02:30:59,190
And here's a report from Canada, which is

4490
02:30:59,190 --> 02:31:00,290
quite negative about it.

4491
02:31:00,390 --> 02:31:01,110
Surprise, surprise.

4492
02:31:01,950 --> 02:31:03,130
Here we go again.

4493
02:31:03,130 --> 02:31:05,910
So far, reaction to the first lady's first

4494
02:31:05,910 --> 02:31:08,750
documentary isn't exactly what you'd put on a

4495
02:31:08,750 --> 02:31:09,690
movie marquee.

4496
02:31:09,730 --> 02:31:12,310
Because this literally is something you can't make

4497
02:31:12,310 --> 02:31:12,510
up.

4498
02:31:12,610 --> 02:31:14,190
This is a Hollywood farce.

4499
02:31:15,310 --> 02:31:16,890
She may have rung the bell at the

4500
02:31:16,890 --> 02:31:18,890
New York Stock Exchange to herald the movie's

4501
02:31:18,890 --> 02:31:20,170
arrival in theaters Friday.

4502
02:31:20,530 --> 02:31:22,550
But before it's even hit screens, the film's

4503
02:31:22,550 --> 02:31:25,370
been getting review bombed on movie site Letterboxd.

4504
02:31:25,770 --> 02:31:26,610
Did I watch this?

4505
02:31:26,710 --> 02:31:26,950
No.

4506
02:31:27,070 --> 02:31:27,850
Do I need to?

4507
02:31:27,930 --> 02:31:29,970
Also no, writes one commentator.

4508
02:31:29,970 --> 02:31:32,170
If they showed this on a plane, people

4509
02:31:32,170 --> 02:31:34,250
would still walk out, writes another.

4510
02:31:35,490 --> 02:31:36,870
The timing couldn't be worse.

4511
02:31:37,230 --> 02:31:39,490
On the very day ICE agents killed nurse

4512
02:31:39,490 --> 02:31:41,910
Alex Pretty, the White House went ahead with

4513
02:31:41,910 --> 02:31:44,610
its preview of Melania for special guests that

4514
02:31:44,610 --> 02:31:44,870
night.

4515
02:31:45,070 --> 02:31:49,030
Melania's director is also controversial, Brett Ratner, banished

4516
02:31:49,030 --> 02:31:52,010
by Hollywood after accusations of sexual misconduct in

4517
02:31:52,010 --> 02:31:52,670
2017.

4518
02:31:53,370 --> 02:31:55,130
Then there's the flick's financial backing.

4519
02:31:55,530 --> 02:31:58,870
Amazon shelling out $40 million US for worldwide

4520
02:31:58,870 --> 02:31:59,350
rights.

4521
02:31:59,350 --> 02:32:02,170
And spending another $35 million to market it.

4522
02:32:02,510 --> 02:32:04,230
A plot line ripe for criticism.

4523
02:32:04,370 --> 02:32:07,750
Jeff Bezos and Amazon had a fractious relationship

4524
02:32:07,750 --> 02:32:08,270
with Trump.

4525
02:32:08,390 --> 02:32:09,350
That's well documented.

4526
02:32:09,850 --> 02:32:11,690
All of a sudden the billionaires show up

4527
02:32:11,690 --> 02:32:14,870
on inauguration day, literally show up, sit behind

4528
02:32:14,870 --> 02:32:16,630
him and money starts to change hands.

4529
02:32:16,970 --> 02:32:19,330
American late night talk show hosts adding that

4530
02:32:19,330 --> 02:32:20,150
to their scripts.

4531
02:32:20,450 --> 02:32:24,530
Amazon bribed a whopping $40 million for the

4532
02:32:24,530 --> 02:32:24,810
movie.

4533
02:32:24,810 --> 02:32:26,610
Are you really trying to tell us that

4534
02:32:26,610 --> 02:32:29,850
this dumb vanity project slash corporate bribe is

4535
02:32:29,850 --> 02:32:30,670
a work of art?

4536
02:32:30,850 --> 02:32:32,530
The documentary will be shown at a lavish

4537
02:32:32,530 --> 02:32:35,190
event at the Kennedy Center Thursday night, then

4538
02:32:35,190 --> 02:32:37,530
opens on 1500 screens in the US and

4539
02:32:37,530 --> 02:32:37,890
Canada.

4540
02:32:38,070 --> 02:32:39,150
I don't think anybody's going to go to

4541
02:32:39,150 --> 02:32:40,930
the theaters to see it.

4542
02:32:41,190 --> 02:32:42,610
It takes a lot to get people to

4543
02:32:42,610 --> 02:32:43,570
go out to the movies, period.

4544
02:32:43,690 --> 02:32:45,270
And I don't think this is this is

4545
02:32:45,270 --> 02:32:45,850
the big draw.

4546
02:32:46,070 --> 02:32:48,490
Friday's opening night, the true test of whether

4547
02:32:48,490 --> 02:32:50,590
moviegoers will show up to see it or

4548
02:32:50,590 --> 02:32:52,390
simply wait until it goes streaming.

4549
02:32:53,650 --> 02:32:55,630
Well, I think they're doing nothing but helping

4550
02:32:55,630 --> 02:32:57,610
by talking about it everywhere.

4551
02:32:58,850 --> 02:33:00,770
Well, the way they're doing it, because it's

4552
02:33:00,770 --> 02:33:01,570
so biased.

4553
02:33:02,070 --> 02:33:02,970
Yeah, yeah.

4554
02:33:03,670 --> 02:33:05,950
Did Kimmel and Colbert see the movie?

4555
02:33:06,070 --> 02:33:07,770
No, they just decided to slam it for

4556
02:33:07,770 --> 02:33:08,510
no good reason.

4557
02:33:08,810 --> 02:33:09,930
Yeah, I'm kind of interested.

4558
02:33:10,070 --> 02:33:12,470
I'll wait until it streams, but I'm interested.

4559
02:33:12,710 --> 02:33:13,130
I'll wait.

4560
02:33:13,690 --> 02:33:14,110
It's good.

4561
02:33:14,270 --> 02:33:16,150
Yeah, I don't know.

4562
02:33:16,170 --> 02:33:16,750
It's nothing else.

4563
02:33:16,810 --> 02:33:18,650
What is it, 20 minutes into life or

4564
02:33:18,650 --> 02:33:19,490
something like that?

4565
02:33:20,310 --> 02:33:20,750
What?

4566
02:33:21,730 --> 02:33:23,270
I mean, it's short.

4567
02:33:23,390 --> 02:33:24,770
It's just about a week in her life.

4568
02:33:24,890 --> 02:33:28,230
I mean, it's just a walk with him.

4569
02:33:28,310 --> 02:33:30,210
Well, that could be according to the president.

4570
02:33:30,330 --> 02:33:31,050
It's amazing.

4571
02:33:32,490 --> 02:33:33,750
No one's ever seen this before.

4572
02:33:35,310 --> 02:33:36,950
I do have these NATO clips, so let's

4573
02:33:36,950 --> 02:33:37,530
run through them.

4574
02:33:37,630 --> 02:33:38,530
All right, let's run through the NATO.

4575
02:33:38,810 --> 02:33:39,750
What is the premise?

4576
02:33:40,310 --> 02:33:45,410
This is a deconstruction of of NPR specifically

4577
02:33:45,410 --> 02:33:47,270
trying to promote NATO.

4578
02:33:47,270 --> 02:33:49,150
There's a big fear that we're going to

4579
02:33:49,150 --> 02:33:51,710
get out of NATO, and people have mixed

4580
02:33:51,710 --> 02:33:53,150
feelings whether that's good or not.

4581
02:33:53,390 --> 02:33:56,590
Do we want troops all over Europe, or

4582
02:33:56,590 --> 02:33:57,870
do we not want troops?

4583
02:33:58,150 --> 02:34:01,130
Or the NPR people have taken this-

4584
02:34:01,130 --> 02:34:01,650
I vote no.

4585
02:34:02,930 --> 02:34:04,090
I vote no.

4586
02:34:05,770 --> 02:34:08,290
I don't have a vote, but I will

4587
02:34:08,290 --> 02:34:12,230
say that this is a slanted report designed

4588
02:34:12,230 --> 02:34:16,870
to kind of stir feelings toward NATO, and

4589
02:34:16,870 --> 02:34:18,250
it's poorly done.

4590
02:34:18,490 --> 02:34:19,750
And let's start with clip one.

4591
02:34:20,130 --> 02:34:22,670
A defining feature of the post-World War

4592
02:34:22,670 --> 02:34:25,810
II global order has been America's alliance with

4593
02:34:25,810 --> 02:34:26,250
Europe.

4594
02:34:26,490 --> 02:34:29,810
That transatlantic relationship has been a bedrock of

4595
02:34:29,810 --> 02:34:30,730
Western security.

4596
02:34:31,390 --> 02:34:33,390
And at its core, for more than 75

4597
02:34:33,390 --> 02:34:36,630
years, has been a special alliance of 32

4598
02:34:36,630 --> 02:34:39,690
countries, 30 in Europe and two in North

4599
02:34:39,690 --> 02:34:41,630
America, the US and Canada.

4600
02:34:41,630 --> 02:34:45,090
Together, they formed NATO, the North Atlantic Treaty

4601
02:34:45,090 --> 02:34:45,850
Organization.

4602
02:34:46,330 --> 02:34:48,950
But that close alliance is now in doubt.

4603
02:34:49,530 --> 02:34:51,390
Here's how Trump put it in January.

4604
02:34:51,930 --> 02:34:53,650
There are certain places in Europe that are

4605
02:34:53,650 --> 02:34:55,690
very important, that are no longer recognizable.

4606
02:34:56,410 --> 02:34:57,270
I'm being very nice.

4607
02:34:57,370 --> 02:34:59,190
I'm being very diplomatic when I say that

4608
02:34:59,190 --> 02:35:00,570
they are not recognizable.

4609
02:35:01,510 --> 02:35:04,270
What do Americans actually think of this alliance

4610
02:35:04,270 --> 02:35:06,510
that's endured for more than eight decades?

4611
02:35:07,070 --> 02:35:10,690
NPR's roving national correspondent, Frank Langford, tells us

4612
02:35:10,690 --> 02:35:10,990
more.

4613
02:35:10,990 --> 02:35:14,010
One of President Trump's biggest complaints about Europe

4614
02:35:14,010 --> 02:35:16,390
is that it hasn't spent enough money on

4615
02:35:16,390 --> 02:35:18,370
its own defense and is freeloaded off the

4616
02:35:18,370 --> 02:35:18,770
US.

4617
02:35:19,310 --> 02:35:21,770
Many Americans agree, including Trump critics.

4618
02:35:22,310 --> 02:35:24,550
Ernie Koo lives in California and is an

4619
02:35:24,550 --> 02:35:26,210
executive in the maritime industry.

4620
02:35:28,690 --> 02:35:31,050
Last month, he was in Baltimore for the

4621
02:35:31,050 --> 02:35:32,870
festivities around the Army-Navy game.

4622
02:35:34,930 --> 02:35:38,230
Watched cadets and midshipmen compete to drag heavyweights

4623
02:35:38,230 --> 02:35:39,850
up a hill overlooking the harbor.

4624
02:35:40,490 --> 02:35:42,990
Koo supports Trump pressuring Europe to spend more

4625
02:35:42,990 --> 02:35:43,910
on its own defense.

4626
02:35:44,170 --> 02:35:46,570
It is forcing Europe to take their security

4627
02:35:46,570 --> 02:35:49,670
a little more seriously and maybe not to

4628
02:35:49,670 --> 02:35:52,030
be so dependent on one big brother.

4629
02:35:52,810 --> 02:35:54,150
And ultimately, I think it's going to be

4630
02:35:54,150 --> 02:35:54,550
a positive.

4631
02:35:57,710 --> 02:35:59,970
So they start off, so we're going to

4632
02:35:59,970 --> 02:36:02,510
get a bunch of basically people on the

4633
02:36:02,510 --> 02:36:06,750
street giving us informed opinions.

4634
02:36:07,390 --> 02:36:08,850
And so they decide to...

4635
02:36:09,570 --> 02:36:10,190
Yes, of course.

4636
02:36:10,950 --> 02:36:13,090
Which is what you do, because you can

4637
02:36:13,090 --> 02:36:14,310
get a million of them and you can

4638
02:36:14,310 --> 02:36:16,970
sort them out and make your point, which

4639
02:36:16,970 --> 02:36:17,770
is what they're doing here.

4640
02:36:18,290 --> 02:36:20,110
And so these are very short clips now.

4641
02:36:20,410 --> 02:36:22,370
This is clip two, and this has got

4642
02:36:22,370 --> 02:36:24,830
that little mathematical trick they like to do.

4643
02:36:25,150 --> 02:36:27,730
About two hours north in Pennsylvania's Bucks County,

4644
02:36:27,970 --> 02:36:29,910
Wes Alker is looking for discounts at a

4645
02:36:29,910 --> 02:36:32,530
Trump merchandise store that's closing at the end

4646
02:36:32,530 --> 02:36:32,950
of the month.

4647
02:36:33,070 --> 02:36:33,330
Closing.

4648
02:36:33,330 --> 02:36:36,130
Alker's a retired auto mechanic and agrees with

4649
02:36:36,130 --> 02:36:38,510
the president on military support for Ukraine.

4650
02:36:38,990 --> 02:36:41,170
Proportionately, we're given more than we should.

4651
02:36:41,490 --> 02:36:42,270
And why do you say that?

4652
02:36:42,330 --> 02:36:43,950
Because they're not on our back doorstep.

4653
02:36:44,430 --> 02:36:46,050
The Europeans ain't doing s**t.

4654
02:36:46,670 --> 02:36:49,030
In fact, the European Union and its member

4655
02:36:49,030 --> 02:36:52,550
states have mobilized more than $71 billion in

4656
02:36:52,550 --> 02:36:54,110
military support for Ukraine.

4657
02:36:54,610 --> 02:36:57,510
Still, an NPR-Ipsos poll in December showed

4658
02:36:57,510 --> 02:36:59,750
that about one-third of Republicans think the

4659
02:36:59,750 --> 02:37:01,130
U.S. has spent too much.

4660
02:37:01,710 --> 02:37:03,970
Majority of Democrats and more than 40%

4661
02:37:03,970 --> 02:37:05,510
of independents disagreed.

4662
02:37:05,730 --> 02:37:06,930
Yeah, spend more.

4663
02:37:07,930 --> 02:37:09,890
Well, the thing there is the numbers.

4664
02:37:10,630 --> 02:37:12,490
A third of the Republicans is 33%.

4665
02:37:14,690 --> 02:37:15,090
40%.

4666
02:37:15,090 --> 02:37:16,490
They go from a third to 40%.

4667
02:37:17,230 --> 02:37:18,290
Oh, I see what you're doing.

4668
02:37:18,310 --> 02:37:20,630
It's only a 7% difference, but they

4669
02:37:20,630 --> 02:37:22,210
make it sound like, oh, you know, these

4670
02:37:22,210 --> 02:37:24,630
Republicans are against it and the Democrats are

4671
02:37:24,630 --> 02:37:25,130
for it.

4672
02:37:25,170 --> 02:37:26,590
No, not really.

4673
02:37:27,550 --> 02:37:29,770
So that kind of trickery, that's what caught

4674
02:37:29,770 --> 02:37:32,030
my attention, which made me put this presentation

4675
02:37:32,030 --> 02:37:33,730
together, because there's more of it.

4676
02:37:34,290 --> 02:37:36,850
Let's go to, now it says NAO, but

4677
02:37:36,850 --> 02:37:40,290
this is a 16-second clip of a

4678
02:37:40,290 --> 02:37:41,730
quote in part three.

4679
02:37:42,030 --> 02:37:44,130
Suzanne Watson is a retired nurse in Colorado.

4680
02:37:44,770 --> 02:37:45,990
I think it's too little.

4681
02:37:46,650 --> 02:37:49,030
I am not a fan of wars or

4682
02:37:49,030 --> 02:37:51,670
helping wars, but I think Putin has made

4683
02:37:51,670 --> 02:37:53,170
it very clear that he's not going to

4684
02:37:53,170 --> 02:37:53,890
stop at Ukraine.

4685
02:37:54,210 --> 02:37:56,070
And at some point, you've got to stand

4686
02:37:56,070 --> 02:37:56,310
up.

4687
02:37:56,510 --> 02:37:57,950
We learned that in World War II.

4688
02:38:00,690 --> 02:38:02,550
Retired nurse in Colorado.

4689
02:38:02,950 --> 02:38:04,190
Yeah, there it is.

4690
02:38:04,250 --> 02:38:08,450
Giving us our perspective on international relations and

4691
02:38:08,450 --> 02:38:08,830
Putin.

4692
02:38:09,030 --> 02:38:09,270
Yes.

4693
02:38:09,410 --> 02:38:09,930
Why?

4694
02:38:10,530 --> 02:38:12,110
A retired, oh, here's a retired.

4695
02:38:12,330 --> 02:38:14,230
And where did they get this retired nurse

4696
02:38:14,230 --> 02:38:17,030
in Colorado to contribute to this report in

4697
02:38:17,030 --> 02:38:17,750
the first place?

4698
02:38:17,770 --> 02:38:18,930
Give me a break.

4699
02:38:20,030 --> 02:38:21,950
OK, so we go to clip four.

4700
02:38:22,030 --> 02:38:24,010
And this one is, this one I called

4701
02:38:24,010 --> 02:38:24,930
dipshit.

4702
02:38:25,150 --> 02:38:25,830
Oh, there you go.

4703
02:38:26,130 --> 02:38:29,350
Disagreement over support for Ukraine seems quaint compared

4704
02:38:29,350 --> 02:38:30,910
with Trump's designs on Greenland.

4705
02:38:31,370 --> 02:38:34,290
Earlier this month, Vice President Vance said Denmark

4706
02:38:34,290 --> 02:38:37,070
hasn't done enough to protect the resource-rich

4707
02:38:37,070 --> 02:38:40,450
territory from Russia and China and that America's

4708
02:38:40,450 --> 02:38:42,830
transatlantic bonds only go so far.

4709
02:38:43,290 --> 02:38:44,690
They always make an argument about the past.

4710
02:38:44,770 --> 02:38:46,570
They'll say, well, we fought together in World

4711
02:38:46,570 --> 02:38:49,570
War II or we fought together in the

4712
02:38:49,570 --> 02:38:50,290
war on terrorism.

4713
02:38:50,450 --> 02:38:51,390
And we're grateful for that.

4714
02:38:51,510 --> 02:38:52,970
We love having these allies.

4715
02:38:53,450 --> 02:38:55,370
But just because you did something smart 25

4716
02:38:55,370 --> 02:38:57,710
years ago doesn't mean you can't do something

4717
02:38:57,710 --> 02:38:58,350
dumb now.

4718
02:38:58,830 --> 02:39:00,290
My name is Sharon Valentine.

4719
02:39:00,670 --> 02:39:01,390
I'm 28.

4720
02:39:02,030 --> 02:39:03,470
I am a mother of one.

4721
02:39:04,150 --> 02:39:05,930
Valentine works for an online bank and lives

4722
02:39:05,930 --> 02:39:06,290
in Utah.

4723
02:39:06,750 --> 02:39:09,630
She's a self-described progressive and thinks Trump's

4724
02:39:09,630 --> 02:39:11,670
approach to allies is self-defeating.

4725
02:39:12,050 --> 02:39:15,470
Threatening to invade Greenland or the Panama Canal

4726
02:39:15,470 --> 02:39:17,790
or to take Canada.

4727
02:39:18,210 --> 02:39:21,170
Where do you think that this foreign policy

4728
02:39:21,170 --> 02:39:22,770
is leading the United States?

4729
02:39:23,290 --> 02:39:24,570
I think it's leading us to be more

4730
02:39:24,570 --> 02:39:25,010
isolated.

4731
02:39:25,710 --> 02:39:27,730
Well, you know what I say to that?

4732
02:39:28,270 --> 02:39:29,270
Talk show.

4733
02:39:32,150 --> 02:39:35,710
So she brings some dipshit on who works

4734
02:39:35,710 --> 02:39:37,890
on an online bank out of the blue

4735
02:39:37,890 --> 02:39:39,830
and she starts crying immediately.

4736
02:39:40,110 --> 02:39:42,030
And this is supposed to convince us of

4737
02:39:42,030 --> 02:39:42,390
what?

4738
02:39:43,430 --> 02:39:46,290
This is their persuasive way of doing a

4739
02:39:46,290 --> 02:39:49,070
presentation on NATO that she doesn't even know,

4740
02:39:49,190 --> 02:39:51,010
can't even say what NATO stands for.

4741
02:39:51,110 --> 02:39:51,570
But OK.

4742
02:39:51,790 --> 02:39:52,190
All right.

4743
02:39:52,510 --> 02:39:54,090
Let's go to five and we're going to

4744
02:39:54,090 --> 02:39:54,990
wrap it pretty quick.

4745
02:39:55,010 --> 02:39:57,830
Polling suggests that Valentine is right.

4746
02:39:58,230 --> 02:39:58,390
Suggests.

4747
02:39:58,390 --> 02:40:00,750
European Council on Foreign Relations released a poll

4748
02:40:00,750 --> 02:40:01,290
this month.

4749
02:40:01,610 --> 02:40:05,010
It showed that in 10 EU countries, including

4750
02:40:05,010 --> 02:40:08,410
France and Germany, an average of only 16

4751
02:40:08,410 --> 02:40:10,730
percent viewed the U.S. as an ally,

4752
02:40:11,150 --> 02:40:13,410
while about half viewed it as a necessary

4753
02:40:13,410 --> 02:40:13,930
partner.

4754
02:40:14,150 --> 02:40:16,250
Here in the U.S., even Republicans are

4755
02:40:16,250 --> 02:40:18,590
concerned about Trump's policies towards Europe.

4756
02:40:18,590 --> 02:40:22,010
A Reuters Ipsos poll this month found 60

4757
02:40:22,010 --> 02:40:25,150
percent of Republicans opposed taking Greenland by force.

4758
02:40:25,670 --> 02:40:27,750
Clay Duncan works in the medical device industry

4759
02:40:27,750 --> 02:40:28,410
in Houston.

4760
02:40:29,010 --> 02:40:31,790
He's very happy with Trump's second term, but

4761
02:40:31,790 --> 02:40:34,090
uneasy about the president's threats against Greenland.

4762
02:40:34,470 --> 02:40:36,090
I think that's a dangerous step, right?

4763
02:40:36,210 --> 02:40:39,110
A lot of times these are negotiation tactics

4764
02:40:39,110 --> 02:40:41,090
because guess what?

4765
02:40:41,290 --> 02:40:42,810
They're watching what just happened in Venezuela.

4766
02:40:43,070 --> 02:40:43,430
Guess what?

4767
02:40:43,610 --> 02:40:45,030
He said that military is not off the

4768
02:40:45,030 --> 02:40:45,310
table.

4769
02:40:46,090 --> 02:40:48,170
I mean, that might be for Denmark, right?

4770
02:40:48,170 --> 02:40:49,930
To get the elicited response.

4771
02:40:50,490 --> 02:40:52,370
Harry's talking like one of them damn government

4772
02:40:52,370 --> 02:40:53,770
guys you always talk about.

4773
02:40:54,210 --> 02:40:55,430
He's down there in Houston.

4774
02:40:55,850 --> 02:40:57,270
Now, why do we have this guy?

4775
02:40:57,370 --> 02:40:59,090
Why do we care about his opinion at

4776
02:40:59,090 --> 02:40:59,390
all?

4777
02:40:59,530 --> 02:41:01,250
We need to color it a little bit.

4778
02:41:01,430 --> 02:41:01,910
Put that in.

4779
02:41:02,090 --> 02:41:02,650
But it has to be.

4780
02:41:02,730 --> 02:41:05,170
OK, Trump supporter who's against Trump.

4781
02:41:05,410 --> 02:41:07,530
Yes, that's the key to success.

4782
02:41:07,610 --> 02:41:08,670
Yes, score.

4783
02:41:08,970 --> 02:41:10,670
Trump supporter who's against Trump.

4784
02:41:10,730 --> 02:41:11,970
We don't know who this guy is.

4785
02:41:12,030 --> 02:41:13,650
He could be just a paid actor.

4786
02:41:13,890 --> 02:41:14,830
It's just ridiculous.

4787
02:41:14,830 --> 02:41:18,290
This report is these people are no good.

4788
02:41:18,370 --> 02:41:19,450
Are you surprised?

4789
02:41:20,010 --> 02:41:21,550
Wrap it up with this is kind of

4790
02:41:21,550 --> 02:41:22,970
lengthy, but it does wrap it up.

4791
02:41:22,990 --> 02:41:23,570
But it's the same.

4792
02:41:24,070 --> 02:41:26,190
So this is a propaganda piece that it

4793
02:41:26,190 --> 02:41:27,850
can be easily ripped apart.

4794
02:41:27,850 --> 02:41:29,710
But I think that people who listen to

4795
02:41:29,710 --> 02:41:31,370
NPR lap it up.

4796
02:41:31,870 --> 02:41:34,630
The Trump administration released its national security strategy

4797
02:41:34,630 --> 02:41:35,390
last month.

4798
02:41:35,830 --> 02:41:37,890
It's far more critical of Europe, which is

4799
02:41:37,890 --> 02:41:40,650
Democratic, that it is of Russia, an authoritarian

4800
02:41:40,650 --> 02:41:42,970
state which started the biggest war on the

4801
02:41:42,970 --> 02:41:44,310
continent since 1945.

4802
02:41:44,830 --> 02:41:47,990
The 29-page document accuses the European Union

4803
02:41:47,990 --> 02:41:51,030
of censoring free speech and suppressing political opposition.

4804
02:41:51,510 --> 02:41:54,250
It also celebrates the growing influence of what

4805
02:41:54,250 --> 02:41:57,490
the administration calls patriotic European parties.

4806
02:41:57,850 --> 02:42:00,010
Frank Sperling grew up in Germany and emigrated

4807
02:42:00,010 --> 02:42:01,710
to the U.S. 35 years ago.

4808
02:42:02,110 --> 02:42:04,130
He thinks this is a tactic to weaken

4809
02:42:04,130 --> 02:42:04,750
the EU.

4810
02:42:05,390 --> 02:42:09,530
Supporting right-wing movements in Europe creates this

4811
02:42:09,530 --> 02:42:14,050
national divide that sowed the into European unity

4812
02:42:14,050 --> 02:42:17,650
within the countries and hamper the progress towards

4813
02:42:17,650 --> 02:42:17,970
that.

4814
02:42:18,530 --> 02:42:21,790
The national security strategy also questions whether European

4815
02:42:21,790 --> 02:42:25,210
nations can remain, quote, reliable allies for the

4816
02:42:25,210 --> 02:42:25,950
United States.

4817
02:42:26,510 --> 02:42:29,030
Alfredo Anthony is a retired lieutenant colonel in

4818
02:42:29,030 --> 02:42:30,730
the U.S. Army who served for seven

4819
02:42:30,730 --> 02:42:31,350
years in Europe.

4820
02:42:31,890 --> 02:42:34,210
He's never seen language like this in a

4821
02:42:34,210 --> 02:42:35,610
national security strategy.

4822
02:42:35,930 --> 02:42:38,970
Makes me feel like the parent who is

4823
02:42:38,970 --> 02:42:41,410
just totally lambasted a child.

4824
02:42:42,010 --> 02:42:44,750
Anthony, who lives in St. Petersburg, Florida, says

4825
02:42:44,750 --> 02:42:46,110
the message is clear.

4826
02:42:46,430 --> 02:42:49,750
In Europe, we are no longer going to

4827
02:42:49,750 --> 02:42:53,270
commit our resources to help you try to

4828
02:42:53,270 --> 02:42:54,770
clear out everything in your backyard.

4829
02:42:55,050 --> 02:42:56,610
You have to be the ones to do

4830
02:42:56,610 --> 02:42:56,710
it.

4831
02:42:56,730 --> 02:42:57,650
You have to take the lead.

4832
02:42:58,070 --> 02:42:59,850
We bail you out too often.

4833
02:43:00,390 --> 02:43:02,370
Our focus happens to be on the United

4834
02:43:02,370 --> 02:43:04,750
States, happens to be on the Western Hemisphere.

4835
02:43:05,310 --> 02:43:06,450
You take care of yourself.

4836
02:43:07,090 --> 02:43:09,470
Anthony worked with NATO, keeping peace in the

4837
02:43:09,470 --> 02:43:11,450
Balkans in the late 1990s.

4838
02:43:11,930 --> 02:43:15,110
He predicts the transatlantic alliance will fragment and

4839
02:43:15,110 --> 02:43:16,890
it'll cost the United States.

4840
02:43:17,690 --> 02:43:19,370
It won't be able to rely on Europe

4841
02:43:19,370 --> 02:43:21,850
as it did to fight in Afghanistan after

4842
02:43:21,850 --> 02:43:24,830
the 9-11 attacks or project power for

4843
02:43:24,830 --> 02:43:26,770
military action in the Middle East.

4844
02:43:27,530 --> 02:43:29,630
Frank Langford, NPR News, Washington.

4845
02:43:29,870 --> 02:43:31,930
My goodness, I'm glad they got defunded.

4846
02:43:32,890 --> 02:43:33,970
I am too.

4847
02:43:33,970 --> 02:43:37,510
I can offset that with some news from

4848
02:43:37,510 --> 02:43:45,110
Euronews about Greenland, which includes the prime minister

4849
02:43:45,110 --> 02:43:47,090
-elect of the Netherlands.

4850
02:43:47,730 --> 02:43:50,070
And I have something to say about this

4851
02:43:50,070 --> 02:43:50,610
at the end.

4852
02:43:50,770 --> 02:43:53,870
Dutch prime minister-elect Robert Jetten said on

4853
02:43:53,870 --> 02:43:57,130
Friday that U.S. President Donald Trump's territorial

4854
02:43:57,130 --> 02:43:59,970
ambitions in Greenland were a wake-up call

4855
02:43:59,970 --> 02:44:00,670
for Europe.

4856
02:44:00,670 --> 02:44:04,490
The centrist D66 leader stressed the need for

4857
02:44:04,490 --> 02:44:09,030
stronger European cooperation to ensure security and prosperity,

4858
02:44:09,570 --> 02:44:12,170
rather than focusing on the United States.

4859
02:44:12,550 --> 02:44:15,250
Jetten made the comments after presenting his policy

4860
02:44:15,250 --> 02:44:18,930
blueprint alongside his minority coalition partners.

4861
02:44:19,110 --> 02:44:23,250
We can continue talking and complaining about the

4862
02:44:23,250 --> 02:44:25,390
U.S., but what we should do instead

4863
02:44:25,390 --> 02:44:27,430
is make sure that the European cooperation is

4864
02:44:27,430 --> 02:44:31,090
strengthened, that we can guarantee security and prosperity

4865
02:44:31,090 --> 02:44:32,470
for our own citizens.

4866
02:44:33,610 --> 02:44:35,450
So one of my first things that I

4867
02:44:35,450 --> 02:44:36,870
will do as soon as I'm in office

4868
02:44:36,870 --> 02:44:39,730
is talk to my colleagues in Europe to

4869
02:44:39,730 --> 02:44:41,990
see what role the Dutch can play again

4870
02:44:41,990 --> 02:44:43,810
in strengthening the European cooperation.

4871
02:44:44,170 --> 02:44:47,030
Jetten said he would still seek closer cooperation

4872
02:44:47,030 --> 02:44:50,370
with Washington on security, Ukraine and the economy.

4873
02:44:50,370 --> 02:44:53,770
Last week, Trump dropped threatened tariffs on eight

4874
02:44:53,770 --> 02:44:56,790
European nations, including in the Netherlands, amid his

4875
02:44:56,790 --> 02:44:58,650
push for control of Greenland.

4876
02:44:59,150 --> 02:45:01,870
So I'm going to introduce a term to

4877
02:45:01,870 --> 02:45:06,190
the show regarding the prime minister-elect, which

4878
02:45:06,190 --> 02:45:09,670
I'd forgotten about when I lived in the

4879
02:45:09,670 --> 02:45:10,010
UK.

4880
02:45:10,750 --> 02:45:13,130
I learned this term and it was recently

4881
02:45:13,130 --> 02:45:17,530
brought to my attention again while watching season

4882
02:45:17,530 --> 02:45:18,830
four of The Crown.

4883
02:45:20,030 --> 02:45:22,910
Rob Jetten is a friend of Dorothy.

4884
02:45:26,250 --> 02:45:26,730
Okay.

4885
02:45:27,370 --> 02:45:28,630
You've never heard this term?

4886
02:45:29,130 --> 02:45:29,370
No.

4887
02:45:30,010 --> 02:45:31,130
A friend of Dorothy.

4888
02:45:31,430 --> 02:45:32,890
Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz.

4889
02:45:34,930 --> 02:45:35,450
Okay.

4890
02:45:36,610 --> 02:45:37,850
Do you know what it means?

4891
02:45:38,270 --> 02:45:39,290
No, I don't know.

4892
02:45:39,370 --> 02:45:40,590
I've never heard the term, so why would

4893
02:45:40,590 --> 02:45:41,430
I know what it means?

4894
02:45:41,630 --> 02:45:43,590
Oh, well, the Queen said it.

4895
02:45:43,730 --> 02:45:45,270
It means you're gay.

4896
02:45:45,790 --> 02:45:46,710
Friend of Dorothy.

4897
02:45:47,910 --> 02:45:50,450
Oh, you know, I may, now I should

4898
02:45:50,450 --> 02:45:51,230
use that.

4899
02:45:51,470 --> 02:45:53,250
It's possible I have heard this term.

4900
02:45:53,410 --> 02:45:53,610
Yeah.

4901
02:45:54,130 --> 02:45:56,390
So he, the Queen would continuously say, oh,

4902
02:45:56,470 --> 02:45:57,510
he's a friend of Dorothy.

4903
02:45:59,660 --> 02:46:00,680
I think it's a term.

4904
02:46:00,700 --> 02:46:02,000
Oh, so you think this new guy's gay?

4905
02:46:02,540 --> 02:46:05,740
No, it's not like think, it's he's, he's,

4906
02:46:05,740 --> 02:46:06,940
he's, he's out gay.

4907
02:46:06,980 --> 02:46:07,620
He's out gay.

4908
02:46:07,960 --> 02:46:08,300
Yes.

4909
02:46:09,500 --> 02:46:09,860
Yes.

4910
02:46:10,920 --> 02:46:11,440
Oh, gay.

4911
02:46:12,660 --> 02:46:13,800
Friend of Dorothy.

4912
02:46:18,280 --> 02:46:19,420
Who could do with us?

4913
02:46:19,540 --> 02:46:20,580
Oh, yeah, that'd be fun.

4914
02:46:26,400 --> 02:46:29,900
Well, we do have a few more people

4915
02:46:29,900 --> 02:46:33,460
to thank for show, uh, 1839.

4916
02:46:33,640 --> 02:46:34,680
We're going to 1840.

4917
02:46:35,420 --> 02:46:36,460
What does that mean?

4918
02:46:36,720 --> 02:46:40,460
It means that's 1840, 1840 shows.

4919
02:46:40,540 --> 02:46:41,120
It's unbelievable.

4920
02:46:41,760 --> 02:46:42,260
1840.

4921
02:46:42,460 --> 02:46:42,700
Yeah.

4922
02:46:43,220 --> 02:46:43,720
1840.

4923
02:46:43,720 --> 02:46:47,380
It must be some year that it celebrates

4924
02:46:47,380 --> 02:46:48,880
the year 1840.

4925
02:46:49,100 --> 02:46:50,700
Maybe we can come up with some gimmick.

4926
02:46:51,160 --> 02:46:51,500
Unlikely.

4927
02:46:51,700 --> 02:46:53,080
But we do have a few more people

4928
02:46:53,080 --> 02:46:53,520

What's that?

They got the last...

4947
02:47:24,300 --> 02:47:25,540
The one he missed is in here.

4948
02:47:25,680 --> 02:47:27,320
Yes, I was about to say that.

4949

02:47:34,180 --> 02:47:35,080

4956
02:47:39,840 --> 02:47:40,700
America and boobs.

4957
02:47:40,700 --> 02:47:44,120
He fixes his missed donation from the last

4958
02:47:44,120 --> 02:47:46,140
episode because he comes in every single show

4959
02:47:46,140 --> 02:47:46,660
with 80...

4960
02:47:46,660 --> 02:47:49,700
I think it just came in after the

4961
02:47:49,700 --> 02:47:52,340
time or PayPal sucked on it.

4962
02:47:52,520 --> 02:47:56,720
Well, he does say here, donation snowstorm plus

Oh, and he says, donation ITM.

4966
02:48:01,800 --> 02:48:04,120
My apologies, did not receive the newsletter reminder.

4967
02:48:04,580 --> 02:48:05,100
Wow.

02:48:05,220 --> 02:48:07,240
So he does this manually every single week.

4969
02:48:07,440 --> 02:48:09,300
It's not an automated thing.

4970
02:48:09,360 --> 02:48:09,980

02:48:09,980 --> 02:48:12,680

5064
02:51:07,040 --> 02:51:08,880
That makes you Knights of the Noah-Jenner

02:51:08,880 --> 02:51:09,400

Dame ring.

5084
02:51:46,800 --> 02:51:47,580
It's the Signet ring.

5085
02:51:47,720 --> 02:51:50,240
So you can seal your important correspondence with

5086
02:51:50,240 --> 02:51:50,340

02:51:51,500 --> 02:51:52,660
wax to do just that.

5089
02:51:52,720 --> 02:51:55,460
And it always comes accompanied with a Certificate

5090
02:51:55,460 --> 02:51:56,140

5091
02:51:56,140 --> 02:51:57,620
Make sure you send in your ring size.

5092
02:51:57,720 --> 02:51:59,440
There's a ring sizing guide on the website.

5093
02:51:59,800 --> 02:52:01,260
And let us know where to send your

5094
02:52:01,260 --> 02:52:02,900

02:52:02,980 --> 02:52:04,560

02:52:17,580 --> 02:52:19,520
The first one is from Leo Bravo, who

5100
02:52:19,520 --> 02:52:21,100
is always out there in the Los Angeles

5101
02:52:21,100 --> 02:52:23,040
area with his flight of the Noah Jenders.

5102
02:52:23,040 --> 02:52:26,900

5113
02:52:45,380 --> 02:52:46,660
There's a lot of ice out here, but

5114
02:52:46,660 --> 02:52:47,600
I think we'll manage.

5115
02:52:48,040 --> 02:52:48,840
Hey, John and Adam.

02:52:54,400 --> 02:52:55,080
afford to leave.

5119
02:52:55,320 --> 02:52:57,400

You are, are you manhandling your microphone?

5180
02:55:00,780 --> 02:55:04,020
I admit to, I'm dicking around with a

5181
02:55:04,020 --> 02:55:07,920
little swivel thing that is making noise and

5182
02:55:07,920 --> 02:55:09,420
I'm trying to figure out why.

5183
02:55:09,580 --> 02:55:10,820
Okay, you could mute that.

5184
02:55:11,040 --> 02:55:12,220
It's just a thought, you know.

5185
02:55:12,360 --> 02:55:14,980
I could, I'll just stop doing it.

5186
02:55:15,120 --> 02:55:15,820
There's a thought.

5187
02:55:16,440 --> 02:55:18,780

Just think about it, John.

5195
02:55:34,560 --> 02:55:36,100
We could be doing a tour and selling

5196
02:55:36,100 --> 02:55:36,520
tickets.

5197
02:55:37,280 --> 02:55:37,720
Think about it.

5198
02:55:38,140 --> 02:55:39,880
Yeah, more overhead.

5199
02:55:41,900 --> 02:55:42,740
Yes, travel.

5200
02:55:42,960 --> 02:55:45,340

5217
02:56:10,000 --> 02:56:10,140
you.

02:56:10,200 --> 02:56:12,100
If you can't find one near you, start

5219
02:56:12,100 --> 02:56:12,860
one yourself.

5220
02:56:13,400 --> 02:56:15,040
Easy and always apartheid.

5221
02:56:18,040 --> 02:56:22,940
With all the nights and days, you want

5222
02:56:22,940 --> 02:56:24,900
to be where you want to be.

5223
02:56:25,060 --> 02:56:28,280
Triggered or held to blame, you want to

5224
02:56:28,280 --> 02:56:30,930
be where everybody feels the same.

5225
02:56:33,140 --> 02:56:34,700
It's like a party.

5226
02:56:35,340 --> 02:56:36,340
That's right.

5227
02:56:36,420 --> 02:56:37,720
And we do have John Sip of the

5228
02:56:37,720 --> 02:56:40,320

5230
02:56:41,220 --> 02:56:42,320
Some A.I., some not.

5231
02:56:42,480 --> 02:56:43,640
Some super, some slop.

5232
02:56:43,820 --> 02:56:44,880
It's always here for you.

5233
02:56:45,520 --> 02:56:47,020

02:56:48,380 --> 02:56:49,480
I liked it as well.

5236
02:56:50,120 --> 02:56:52,640
That's, uh, so we had, uh, what do

5237
02:56:52,640 --> 02:56:52,940
we have?

5238
02:56:54,400 --> 02:56:56,780
We have MVP, of course.

5239
02:56:57,060 --> 02:57:00,200
And, uh, Bonald Crabtree.

5240
02:57:01,140 --> 02:57:02,560
Yeah, some good stuff.

5241
02:57:03,060 --> 02:57:04,580
Before we do that, we always want to

5242
02:57:04,580 --> 02:57:06,120
select the end of show ISO in this

5243
02:57:06,120 --> 02:57:07,060
part of the show.

5244
02:57:07,180 --> 02:57:08,640
It's the thing that we end the show

5245
02:57:08,640 --> 02:57:08,880
with.

5246
02:57:08,940 --> 02:57:11,420
It's some kind of man versus machine thing

5247
02:57:11,420 --> 02:57:12,760
that John and I have been doing for

5248
02:57:12,760 --> 02:57:13,120
a while.

5249
02:57:13,200 --> 02:57:14,480
And I'll start off with the one we

5250
02:57:14,480 --> 02:57:15,100
heard earlier.

5251
02:57:15,100 --> 02:57:18,140
These guys are the best podcasters in the

5252
02:57:18,140 --> 02:57:18,680
universe.

5253
02:57:19,100 --> 02:57:21,160
Which I'm just amazed that's an open source

5254
02:57:21,160 --> 02:57:21,900
A.I. thing.

5255
02:57:22,020 --> 02:57:23,060
I think that's pretty good.

5256
02:57:23,520 --> 02:57:24,540
Here's my second one.

5257
02:57:24,800 --> 02:57:25,740
Very powerful clips.

5258
02:57:27,160 --> 02:57:27,640
Oh.

5259
02:57:27,920 --> 02:57:28,640
It's good, right?

5260
02:57:29,000 --> 02:57:30,060
You keep going there.

5261
02:57:30,340 --> 02:57:30,780
Come on.

5262
02:57:30,900 --> 02:57:31,960
The whole model is.

5263
02:57:32,900 --> 02:57:34,440
You're stepping on my clip here.

5264
02:57:34,540 --> 02:57:34,740
Hold on.

5265
02:57:34,860 --> 02:57:36,380
The whole model is broken.

5266
02:57:37,300 --> 02:57:38,360
I like the vocal fry.

5267
02:57:38,820 --> 02:57:40,740
I like the vocal fry.

5268
02:57:40,900 --> 02:57:41,340
Want to hear it again?

5269
02:57:41,360 --> 02:57:43,080
You know, I'm going to put these clips

5270
02:57:43,080 --> 02:57:43,760
in abeyance.

5271
02:57:43,760 --> 02:57:45,100
I have a fourth one.

5272
02:57:45,780 --> 02:57:46,440
Oh, OK.

5273
02:57:46,800 --> 02:57:49,000
Thank you for your courage, your voice, and

5274
02:57:49,000 --> 02:57:50,680
for all you do.

5275
02:57:51,540 --> 02:57:52,260
A little long.

5276
02:57:52,580 --> 02:57:54,580
I like the whole model is broken.

5277
02:57:55,900 --> 02:57:58,120
No, the Trump one has to be used.

5278
02:57:58,220 --> 02:58:00,960
These guys are the best podcasters in the

5279
02:58:00,960 --> 02:58:01,400
universe.

5280
02:58:01,640 --> 02:58:03,340
And we will play that at the end.

5281
02:58:03,380 --> 02:58:05,760
But first, it's time for John's tip of

5282
02:58:05,760 --> 02:58:06,240
the day.

5283
02:58:14,180 --> 02:58:14,980
Sometimes, Adam.

5284
02:58:15,660 --> 02:58:17,980
OK, this involves a lecture and a tip.

5285
02:58:18,340 --> 02:58:18,880
A lecture.

5286
02:58:19,680 --> 02:58:19,960
Yeah.

5287
02:58:20,060 --> 02:58:21,400
This is another wine tip.

5288
02:58:21,500 --> 02:58:22,500
People really love that.

5289
02:58:22,800 --> 02:58:23,060
Yes.

5290
02:58:23,300 --> 02:58:23,480
Yes.

5291
02:58:23,620 --> 02:58:23,980
Yeah.

5292
02:58:24,180 --> 02:58:25,320
People love the wine tip.

5293
02:58:25,400 --> 02:58:26,560
And even though it's up to nine bucks

5294
02:58:26,560 --> 02:58:27,420
now, they changed the price.

5295
02:58:27,540 --> 02:58:28,060
Still cheap.

5296
02:58:28,360 --> 02:58:29,080
It's still good.

5297
02:58:29,260 --> 02:58:30,240
They heard it on the show.

5298
02:58:30,320 --> 02:58:31,680
Like, hey, let's jack it up.

5299
02:58:31,740 --> 02:58:33,000
All those crazy podcasts.

5300
02:58:33,380 --> 02:58:36,460
So this is another one of those little

5301
02:58:36,460 --> 02:58:39,340
box sets that Costco put together.

5302
02:58:39,640 --> 02:58:40,860
We like the box set.

5303
02:58:41,060 --> 02:58:43,380
And this box set is painted turquoise.

5304
02:58:43,380 --> 02:58:44,880
It's not just wood.

5305
02:58:45,260 --> 02:58:47,860
It's actually went to trouble painting it.

5306
02:58:48,000 --> 02:58:49,620
And it's called the Grand.

5307
02:58:50,580 --> 02:58:52,720
The Grand Assembly.

5308
02:58:54,240 --> 02:58:58,040
The Grand Assembly of these Cremant.

5309
02:58:58,200 --> 02:58:59,120
There's three wines.

5310
02:58:59,360 --> 02:58:59,860
It's 49.

5311
02:59:00,020 --> 02:59:00,600
It's not cheap.

5312
02:59:01,020 --> 02:59:01,560
Forty nine.

5313
02:59:01,620 --> 02:59:02,400
Ninety five.

5314
02:59:02,620 --> 02:59:03,040
Forty nine.

5315
02:59:03,120 --> 02:59:03,480
Ninety nine.

5316
02:59:03,600 --> 02:59:05,200
You get three wines for forty nine.

5317
02:59:05,280 --> 02:59:05,720
Ninety nine.

5318
02:59:06,200 --> 02:59:06,420
Yeah.

5319
02:59:06,460 --> 02:59:07,620
But the three sparklers.

5320
02:59:08,760 --> 02:59:09,740
Oh, they're all sparklers.

5321
02:59:10,220 --> 02:59:11,220
And they're all French.

5322
02:59:11,380 --> 02:59:12,700
And they're all Cremant.

5323
02:59:12,700 --> 02:59:14,660
I'm not a big fan of the sparklers.

5324
02:59:15,320 --> 02:59:16,240
Yeah, you may not be.

5325
02:59:16,300 --> 02:59:17,000
But a lot of people are.

5326
02:59:17,080 --> 02:59:18,640
And I think they should be taken and

5327
02:59:18,640 --> 02:59:19,640
drunk at dinner.

5328
02:59:19,740 --> 02:59:20,540
Their dinner wines.

5329
02:59:20,700 --> 02:59:22,760
That's what the champagne people want you to

5330
02:59:22,760 --> 02:59:22,960
do.

5331
02:59:23,060 --> 02:59:25,080
They want you to appreciate it as a

5332
02:59:25,080 --> 02:59:27,760
dinner wine instead of a celebratory wine or

5333
02:59:27,760 --> 02:59:27,940
something.

5334
02:59:28,020 --> 02:59:29,060
You dump on someone.

5335
02:59:29,500 --> 02:59:31,500
Or christen a ship with.

5336
02:59:32,020 --> 02:59:33,680
And they don't like the champagne.

5337
02:59:33,980 --> 02:59:37,320
People in particular don't like their stuff being

5338
02:59:37,320 --> 02:59:38,320
abused like that.

5339
02:59:38,360 --> 02:59:39,320
No, of course not.

5340
02:59:40,020 --> 02:59:43,940
So Cremant is a special category of sparkling

5341
02:59:43,940 --> 02:59:46,080
wine that's made in the method of champagne,

5342
02:59:46,080 --> 02:59:47,780
but it's made throughout the country.

5343
02:59:48,200 --> 02:59:50,460
And they're called Cremant to this, Cremant to

5344
02:59:50,460 --> 02:59:51,440
that, Cremant to this.

5345
02:59:51,520 --> 02:59:53,620
Now, the ones that are in this, there's

5346
02:59:53,620 --> 02:59:55,400
three of them in this package.

5347
02:59:55,780 --> 02:59:57,840
And it amounts to sixteen dollars and sixty

5348
02:59:57,840 --> 03:00:01,780
cents a bottle, which is reasonable for a

5349
03:00:01,780 --> 03:00:04,420
sparkler because champagnes, you even when you buy

5350
03:00:04,420 --> 03:00:06,240
them direct from a guy who brings them

5351
03:00:06,240 --> 03:00:06,780
in directly.

5352
03:00:07,060 --> 03:00:08,800
It's always going to be twenty five bucks.

5353
03:00:09,440 --> 03:00:10,780
Twenty five is low.

5354
03:00:11,700 --> 03:00:13,400
A good, a decent champagne is going to

5355
03:00:13,400 --> 03:00:15,280
cost you thirty five bucks and up.

5356
03:00:15,820 --> 03:00:17,340
And the stuff that you drink, which is

5357
03:00:17,340 --> 03:00:18,980
Bollinger, is like fifty.

5358
03:00:19,560 --> 03:00:21,320
I drink Vauve Clicquot.

5359
03:00:22,860 --> 03:00:24,820
I would not drink Vauve unless it was

5360
03:00:24,820 --> 03:00:25,180
vintage.

5361
03:00:25,400 --> 03:00:27,740
I like Bollinger, but it's a little expensive.

5362
03:00:31,260 --> 03:00:33,120
That's if we go eat with.

5363
03:00:34,080 --> 03:00:35,780
Yeah, you have somebody else buy it, of

5364
03:00:35,780 --> 03:00:35,940
course.

5365
03:00:36,100 --> 03:00:36,340
Yes.

5366
03:00:36,440 --> 03:00:36,760
Hello.

5367
03:00:36,760 --> 03:00:40,300
But but you if you like Vauve, you

5368
03:00:40,300 --> 03:00:41,520
would like these Cremants.

5369
03:00:41,580 --> 03:00:42,440
I think they're better.

5370
03:00:42,940 --> 03:00:43,240
Really?

5371
03:00:43,700 --> 03:00:46,400
Well, Vauve Clicquot is like except for the

5372
03:00:46,400 --> 03:00:46,760
vintage.

5373
03:00:46,880 --> 03:00:48,400
If you people want to drink Vauve Clicquot,

5374
03:00:48,600 --> 03:00:50,200
go look what the ones that have a

5375
03:00:50,200 --> 03:00:51,000
vintage date.

5376
03:00:51,660 --> 03:00:52,060
Boom.

5377
03:00:52,280 --> 03:00:54,260
Now you're getting the good quality stuff.

5378
03:00:54,320 --> 03:00:55,080
Oh, I didn't know.

5379
03:00:55,360 --> 03:00:57,920
What you're doing is mass produced junk.

5380
03:00:58,160 --> 03:00:59,120
It's just junk, man.

5381
03:00:59,140 --> 03:01:00,380
I'm just drinking junk.

5382
03:01:00,540 --> 03:01:01,380
I mean, I might as well.

5383
03:01:01,500 --> 03:01:02,280
You don't like champagne.

5384
03:01:02,380 --> 03:01:03,940
I just go kill myself.

5385
03:01:04,920 --> 03:01:05,840
I'm drinking junk.

5386
03:01:06,820 --> 03:01:08,200
We have we have these.

5387
03:01:08,440 --> 03:01:10,000
We have the Heath winery here.

5388
03:01:10,080 --> 03:01:12,860
Heath and Heath does some great sparklers.

5389
03:01:13,200 --> 03:01:14,020
Texas sparklers.

5390
03:01:14,260 --> 03:01:14,700
Good for them.

5391
03:01:16,020 --> 03:01:17,500
I'm sure it's fabulous.

5392
03:01:18,100 --> 03:01:19,540
So I'm sure they're overpriced.

5393
03:01:19,640 --> 03:01:20,740
By the way, for 18.

5394
03:01:21,080 --> 03:01:22,040
Ah, you said by the way.

5395
03:01:22,260 --> 03:01:22,360
I did.

5396
03:01:22,480 --> 03:01:25,000
I stopped myself for 18 years.

5397
03:01:25,260 --> 03:01:28,120
No matter what wine I'm drinking, John always

5398
03:01:28,120 --> 03:01:29,020
says it's shit.

5399
03:01:29,920 --> 03:01:31,140
I know it's not true.

5400
03:01:31,240 --> 03:01:33,200
Ah, unless it's somebody else's wine.

5401
03:01:33,280 --> 03:01:35,100
There's some really expensive thing that I didn't

5402
03:01:35,100 --> 03:01:35,300
buy.

5403
03:01:35,380 --> 03:01:36,100
But anything I'm like.

5404
03:01:36,100 --> 03:01:36,680
You drink.

5405
03:01:36,940 --> 03:01:38,100
Oh, I really like this wine.

5406
03:01:38,260 --> 03:01:38,580
You're like.

5407
03:01:41,060 --> 03:01:43,340
You've all you're always knocking my wines.

5408
03:01:43,900 --> 03:01:44,760
I think it's just.

5409
03:01:44,920 --> 03:01:48,440
So these three wines are $49.99. Yeah,

5410
03:01:48,680 --> 03:01:49,900
that's what I'm doing.

5411
03:01:49,940 --> 03:01:51,360
These tips are wine snuff.

5412
03:01:51,440 --> 03:01:52,040
Of course I am.

5413
03:01:53,560 --> 03:01:55,120
Now there's a creme.

5414
03:01:55,820 --> 03:01:56,580
I'm sorry.

5415
03:01:56,680 --> 03:01:58,260
A Cremant de.

5416
03:01:59,320 --> 03:02:00,280
What are the three?

5417
03:02:00,380 --> 03:02:02,360
There's a there's a Cremant de Bordeaux, which

5418
03:02:02,360 --> 03:02:03,360
is extremely rare.

5419
03:02:03,400 --> 03:02:05,020
And I've never actually seen one before.

5420
03:02:05,020 --> 03:02:06,400
And I'm glad I got that.

5421
03:02:06,460 --> 03:02:08,580
And then there's a Cremant de Alsace, which

5422
03:02:08,580 --> 03:02:09,340
is very common.

5423
03:02:09,840 --> 03:02:11,940
They're using different grapes, but they're using the

5424
03:02:11,940 --> 03:02:15,340
champagne methodology, except in in Burgundy, which is

5425
03:02:15,340 --> 03:02:17,520
the Cremant de Borgogna, which they have in

5426
03:02:17,520 --> 03:02:17,660
there.

5427
03:02:17,700 --> 03:02:19,680
And this is the wine that is made

5428
03:02:19,680 --> 03:02:21,320
with the same grapes they use in champagne.

5429
03:02:21,440 --> 03:02:23,780
Doesn't quite create the champagne chalkiness, but at

5430
03:02:23,780 --> 03:02:26,920
the same time, it produces a terrific product.

5431
03:02:27,340 --> 03:02:29,220
And that's the stuff I'm always recommending people

5432
03:02:29,220 --> 03:02:31,960
get for their for their when they get

5433
03:02:31,960 --> 03:02:34,280
married and they have the celebration afterwards.

5434
03:02:34,280 --> 03:02:38,040
The special occasion you pass out free champagne.

5435
03:02:38,040 --> 03:02:39,700
You don't pass out free champagne.

5436
03:02:39,700 --> 03:02:41,480
You pass out free Cremant.

5437
03:02:41,780 --> 03:02:42,080
Cremant.

5438
03:02:42,540 --> 03:02:43,680
Nobody knows the difference.

5439
03:02:45,320 --> 03:02:47,220
Except you, you be at the wedding going,

5440
03:02:47,400 --> 03:02:48,980
what a crap wine you gave me.

5441
03:02:49,240 --> 03:02:50,440
No, these Cremants are delicious.

5442
03:02:50,580 --> 03:02:51,880
I'm not saying they're bad at all.

5443
03:02:52,320 --> 03:02:53,060
They're quite good.

5444
03:02:53,740 --> 03:02:55,620
So I would recommend people pick this pack

5445
03:02:55,620 --> 03:02:57,520
up and get into Cremants and drink them

5446
03:02:57,520 --> 03:02:57,980
for dinner.

5447
03:02:57,980 --> 03:03:01,660
And I recommend you go to noagendafund.com

5448
03:03:01,660 --> 03:03:04,320
or tipoftheday.net and see all of John's

5449
03:03:04,320 --> 03:03:05,080

5450
03:03:15,900 --> 03:03:17,520
Thank you to Dana Brunetti, of course.

5451
03:03:17,700 --> 03:03:19,000
Where'd we be without him?

5452
03:03:19,740 --> 03:03:21,080
Producer to the stars.

5453
03:03:21,860 --> 03:03:24,360
Yes, our suit.

5454
03:03:24,820 --> 03:03:27,320
I will be checking out the Grammys tonight.

5455
03:03:28,460 --> 03:03:30,180
For the Satan segment.

5456
03:03:30,360 --> 03:03:33,260
So I can report on that on Thursday's

5457
03:03:33,260 --> 03:03:33,380
show.

5458
03:03:34,580 --> 03:03:36,260
Watch along with me for all of the

5459
03:03:36,260 --> 03:03:36,520
fun.

5460
03:03:36,940 --> 03:03:37,740
End of show mixes.

5461
03:03:37,960 --> 03:03:41,740
We got MVP and Bonald Crabtree in a

5462
03:03:41,740 --> 03:03:42,320
nice trio.

5463
03:03:43,100 --> 03:03:44,980
Coming up next on the No Agenda stream.

5464
03:03:45,160 --> 03:03:47,980
Behind the schemes with Boobery and Lavish.

5465
03:03:48,960 --> 03:03:50,060
Are they live?

5466
03:03:50,160 --> 03:03:51,040
They might be live.

5467
03:03:51,280 --> 03:03:52,400
They may be live.

5468
03:03:52,640 --> 03:03:54,620
Or maybe they're just recorded.

5469
03:03:54,740 --> 03:03:56,180
But it's going to be streaming live for

5470
03:03:56,180 --> 03:03:56,300
you.

5471
03:03:56,320 --> 03:03:57,540
So make sure you check that out.

5472
03:03:57,540 --> 03:03:59,620
We will be back with you on Thursday

5473
03:03:59,620 --> 03:04:03,700
for another several hour episode of media deconstruction.

5474
03:04:03,840 --> 03:04:05,920
Or for some of you just catching up

5475
03:04:05,920 --> 03:04:07,200
on the news with the boys.

5476
03:04:07,900 --> 03:04:09,000
Coming to you from the heart of the

5477
03:04:09,000 --> 03:04:09,860
Texas hill country.

5478
03:04:10,000 --> 03:04:12,040
Home of Heath sparkling wines, which are quite

5479
03:04:12,040 --> 03:04:12,320
good.

5480
03:04:12,660 --> 03:04:13,740
In the morning, everybody.

5481
03:04:13,900 --> 03:04:14,660
I'm Adam Curry.

5482
03:04:14,900 --> 03:04:16,560
And from northern Silicon Valley.

5483
03:04:17,760 --> 03:04:20,220
Where they make sparkling wine out here too.

5484
03:04:20,320 --> 03:04:22,760
But again, not great.

5485
03:04:22,900 --> 03:04:23,400
I'm John C.

5486
03:04:23,440 --> 03:04:23,800
Dvorak.

5487
03:04:23,920 --> 03:04:24,900
We'll be back on Thursday.

5488
03:04:24,900 --> 03:04:27,200

And such.

5494
03:05:30,350 --> 03:05:32,270
And brings the maps to life and forth.

5495
03:05:33,150 --> 03:05:34,410
Adam always sees.

5496
03:05:35,310 --> 03:05:36,850
And seizes the seas.

5497
03:05:37,690 --> 03:05:39,350
And sells seashells.

5498
03:05:40,370 --> 03:05:41,910
By the seashore.

5499
03:05:43,650 --> 03:05:45,230
Oh, that's my shit.

5500
03:05:45,570 --> 03:05:47,490
Oh, Somali's coming for you, my sis.

5501
03:05:49,350 --> 03:06:08,790
My shit.

5502
03:07:17,630 --> 03:07:18,670
My shit.

5503
03:07:19,370 --> 03:07:20,930
Oh, this my shit.

5504
03:07:52,510 --> 03:07:53,710
We just need cash.

5505
03:07:53,710 --> 03:07:53,950
Cash.

5506
03:08:01,980 --> 03:08:03,180
On a sand.

5507
03:08:03,420 --> 03:08:04,400
Blanket's the water.

5508
03:08:07,680 --> 03:08:08,580
I know a lot.

5509
03:08:08,780 --> 03:08:10,420
Will want to send blankets.

5510
03:08:10,660 --> 03:08:10,980
So I.

5511
03:08:11,600 --> 03:08:12,940
Just send your cash.

5512
03:08:13,620 --> 03:08:14,440
Just send your cash.
