Who is this idiot? Adam curry. John C. Dvorak
has Thursday, May 3 2012. Time for you get my nation media
assassination episode 405.
This is no agenda. Proud to
be your confidential human resource here at Camp MoPhO in
the capital of the drone Star State, Boston Tea House in the
morning, everybody.
I'm Adam curry and from Northern Silicon Valley where Third
time's a charm. I'm John C. Dvorak.
Vaughn Buzzkill.
Second time's often good to
know, I figured I'd have that in there. Just in case you blew it
again.
This is why people should listen live because that's when you
hear not only when we mess up, or when I I'll say when I mess
up the beginning of the show. But of course you also knew our
you get to hear our beautiful and incredibly musical slide
whistle concerto worst.
I think we're getting better. Yeah, well, that's
still we can take that on the road brother
rate it wouldn't make any difference is still a slide
whistle.
Just practice. How's the patent coming for our for the what does
it call the center slider?
Yeah, yeah, it's coming along. Yeah. Someone registered in line
or normal pace. Someone
registered the domain name, but neglected to send us an email
about it. He's probably
sitting on it. Like, yeah, it's like a patent. To guys. I hate
that show.
Wait until they come out with their Cyntha slider. I'll screw
them then. The domain name? Yeah. Well, I have to say. It's
quite a lot of news going on. I mean, not not on television, of
course. Oh, by the way.
Television now officially for the first time in almost two
decades that less people watch television. Less hours per
person, per family per household,
I know has been well. That's been a trend. It's been no, no,
no, it's no reason to change. No, this is the this is the
first time Nielsen actually made a big deal about it. And it's
like 45 minutes, 45 minutes less per year or something like 30
seconds a day less. CNN, however, is officially dead.
They're gone. I mean, I can't even watch him anymore. Oh, what
Mickey calls mom news, which I think is an insult to moms. But
yeah, they have on average, it's now like 100,000 people
watching? What? Yeah. Oh, yeah. It's that bad.
Sounds like check TV.
Die don't need to detect TV ever get past 80? I'm not so sure.
No, I don't think so. I think the typical listeners were about
40. But we were beyond the asterisk. So there was there was
enough numbers that you can count them.
Right. Right. Right. Well beyond the Asterix asterisk is minimum
10,000 I think. Yeah, that's what oh,
there are there are shows that are on cable that are getting an
asterisk.
Well, welcome to the Asterix podcast, everybody. This is the
no agenda show, some called the greatest podcast in the
universe. I'm Adam curry and in the morning to you John C.
Dvorak.
And good morning to you and in the morning to all ships at sea
and boots on the ground. pounder and the feet washing ashore in
the Vancouver coast. And let us
remember our sub mariners the ships under the sea, who are
definitely tuned in and listening. Well, there's one guy
well, we know of one that's, that's good. And of course, our
chat room. Everyone's charged up ready to go. Nice to see you
there. No agenda stream.com no agenda chat. dotnet speaking of
boots on the ground and ships at sea and under the sea. I got an
email from one of our listeners at Fort Stewart where our
president was a member he he went on stage again and and said
you got to marry up marry up into the gene pool.
Yeah, he says that all the time. In the morning, up on the on the
on the agenda. There was an interesting kind of anomaly that
we brought this up on that generation X three show that you
know with the kids,
yeah, another Asterix program. Oh, definitely. I can say
asterisk, double platinum, asterisk to hard word asterisk,
asterisk asterisk. It was interesting because Dorian, the
female member of the panel, she said that she they have an
anonymous, anonymous, and not what's a an A not anonymous
Nicholas anomaly, an anomaly The she's what happens when you try
and you you might want to marry up but both parties in the
relationship both think they're smarter than the other person.
So it's like, in other words, neither one, you know, you could
have both parties thinking the exact same thing. Right? How
could you marry up? If like saved you both thought the other
person was smarter.
And you wonder why this is an asterisk show?
You had to see it. It was very fun. Yeah, it
was great. Well, let me continue with my email from Fort Stewart,
our men and women serving there. From your comment on the last
show about, quote, There are no listeners at Fort Stewart.
During the conversation about Obama, I would like you to know,
I would like is no, there are quite a few here military and
civilian. Just wanted to add in our battalion of about 1500
soldiers. When our commander asked who wanted to go to
President Obama's speech, we had an astounding two volunteers. So
we were all forced to go because no one supported him. Yeah. So
they had a battalion of 1500. The commander says, Who wants to
go to see the President and to douchebags who don't like to
pull the hand back down. I'm sorry. There's just
never a you know, there's guests. That's a smart group of
people because of the old army rule is never volunteer for
anything. Yeah. No, that's true. Who knows what you got to do.
After the guy you don't know.
So then they were forced, they were forced to go.
forced march.
It's not awesome. I love it. When we get emails from our,
from our military. That's
a Japanese guy.
He didn't understand the question. No, no, they're
forced march. It's like, Oh, I'm sorry. I did not a world war two
reference.
So this campaign is in full force. Man, this is a really
quite amazing the only thing that's been on, on the so called
news, which we're here to deconstruct twice a week for you
about two and a half hours each time is of course the
encouraging now that we celebrated the first anniversary
of the killing of Osama bin Laden. Now of course, it's
perfect time to release the information, the treasure
treasure trove, the goldmine that we discovered in his
compound in Abbottabad which by the way, I'm quite pleased to
hear that we are pronouncing it correctly and not a single
there's only there was one guy there was a discussion on I
think it was Face the Nation or something and everyone knows
who's the who's the old guy Bob something or other Bob Vila.
Kefir was cheaper. And he's going about about everyone's
going about it but and one guy says, Well, I was actually in a
bit Abbottabad I'm like, Yeah, I bet you work because you
pronounce it correctly. Abbottabad
Yeah, you think that these guys you know, they have all these
books. You know, the network guys are supposed to pronounce
everything correctly. Unlike us. Yeah. Which you know, we're just
podcasters Yeah. As d'Orsay never do. I don't think ever go
to the guest gets a tear. There's an NBC book on the topic
that shows all the pronunciations that very
collectible book giant book of Prada pronounce things? I don't
know. No, of
course they don't. Of course they don't. So
a couple of clips about this.
Okay, well, then, I have one. Actually, I have to have Erin
Burnett. But she's not even worth it. But that you
do go you I thought you said CNN was dead New Year's still.
I didn't watch it. Someone sent it to me. But I have an ABC
clip. But let's do your clips first because I'm going to win
the coveted Clip of the Day award with my clip. Okay, well,
early in the show, right? If you
if you are so confident that you will then you probably will
because I don't believe I have a clip of the day competitor.
Well, then why did you get some interesting clothes you show up
to the meeting then? So here we go. So let's start with so I was
getting the clips from from the span. know from the NBC we're
gonna have a slant because NBC is just a promotion company for
Obama. But but there's little things that slip. And Hillary in
is one of the people that you know, she's so free, you know,
in a way she acts about things. I thought there was a little a
little anecdote here by Hillary that said said do it in a piece
of information I was unfamiliar with
operations command, outlined a possible raid on the suspected
Bin Laden compound.
I had 100% faith in the Navy SEALs themselves. Bill McRaven,
the head of Special Forces had worked with us for months to
think through every possible scenario. He's a guy who
inspires a lot of confidence. And he's a no nonsense guy.
I remember the moment in the sit room, you know, someone said,
Well, you know, this sounds really dumb. So we're going to
expose our guys and what we know is going to happen. And he said,
Well, with all due respect, we've done this hundreds of
times
really? Were hundreds of compounds, or hundreds of
enlivens, which one, is it? I want to
explain hundreds of times what?
You know, I was reading the, the White House insider over there
and the Ulsterman blog. And this is an old report was, maybe it
was six months ago or so. And he says, and this is all before all
of this again six months ago, he says absolutely not true. That
Panetta had already signed the order that he and Hillary
Clinton and Robert Gates were all on board. We want to do
this, we're going to go in and Valerie Jarrett, according to
the insider, refused to let President Obama say, go ahead
and do it. And it got so bad that Bill Daley remembered the
daily of the daily crime family Chicago Crime Family, that he
had a one on one chat with Valerie Jarrett. And only then
did the President say, Okay, I'll give the 48 hour and then
they actually pulled him off the golf course to come in to the
sit room. This it's completely the opposite. And it was Robert
Gates who said, Look, if you're not going to do this, I'm going
to resign early. And we and he, he kind of followed through on
that. And Hillary Clinton apparently said she was going to
start leaking information that the President couldn't make a
decision. That's from the Insider.
That's pretty funny. Now the way they explained on this, this was
a whole show essentially. About About the celebration, and I
celebration. That's it. Let's celebrate. You didn't celebrate
with me, brother. So anyway, Mike Mullen was the one who
apparently was the real let's do it this way. Have they also said
that Hillary was wishy washy. The gates wanted to just drone
the place. With gates. I'm all for that. Yeah. Why are we
what's the point? Let's just drone it. So they wanted to blow
it up. And then you couldn't figure it was the guy, you know,
who was killed, they say, and then and then it was the
heavyweight. They had to go by Obama had to sleep on it. And
then he came in, it was the next day that he decided to do it. He
had to sleep. I was asleep on it. But it was but Mike Mullen
who was the Navy guy that was the Chief of Staff been replaced
by an army guy, but he and I like Molan, I think he is seems
like a straight shooter. He doesn't like little commentary
here. Show that kind of discusses the whole thing. The
planning
picked up speed. And by April 21 of last year, the Chairman of
the Joint Chiefs of Staff at the time, Admiral Mike Mullen
attended a dress rehearsal with a team of Navy SEALs at a mock
compound they'd set up in the Nevada desert, correct met
that night, every single member of the night of the rehearsal,
every single member that was on that mission, and I got to look,
each of them in the eye. They showed me in their execution of
rehearsal, and also, in that steely eyed glare that they give
you that they were ready to go.
Did they suspect anything when the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs
came to watch them? Practice and drill?
I never asked that question. I certainly suspect that they did.
When did they learn exactly what their mission was and who their
target was?
Actually, you'd have to ask Bill McRaven that, but they're
they're not idiots. I mean, they knew certainly know how critical
this was. They knew who they were and who they were working
with.
Uncle Don really likes Mike Mullen.
He seems like a really nice guy. Yeah, like the kind of guy you
want to have a beer with. Yeah. And then you wouldn't mind
working with in some way shape or form this other guy, Bill
McRaven, who they didn't I didn't recall them interviewing
on the show is the guy who was behind the whole thing. And he
was he's recently become a four star Admiral. He is the the head
he's not only the head of Special Operations, and he's a
Navy guy, which is where it is. I think he's stationed in an Air
Force base. So this is fishy, but he's a Navy guy. And he
wrote the book on special operations. Literally. look him
up on Amazon and there's a book called Spec Ops, and he is gonna
hold the whole thing for anybody who wants to know how it works
is it includes the whole thing outline. He's like one of those
writer general types. Those
include crashing the helicopter into the offense. Is that
part of the written the book was written before this for
helicopters? Yeah,
All right, you ready for my clip? Because I have no clue.
Okay,
here we go. All right.
Let me sit down. Okay. It's a long clip and we'll have to stop
it because there's just so much in it is so funny. This is the
completely compromised some stretching and stretching. This
is the compromised ABC News. I need to remind everybody of that
because yeah, NBC is a is a rah, rah, outfit for the
administration, but ABC is compromised. The president of
news, his sister is special adviser to the president can't
say it enough. And Diane Sawyer is toasted as usual. She's hot
though. And she's toasted. I like her when she's when she
just kind
of looks like this. Kind of like,
and, you know, so what can we do now that we have this treasure
trove? We've got to bring that out to the front and let's just
rerun the script. How was it a year ago that they brought out
the bombs in breast implants? Was that a year ago that they
tried that and we and everyone just laughed at him and nothing
happened?
I don't remember the date timeline on that. But it was a
while it
was a while back. Okay. So let's go through this report. Our top
correspondents Diane Shire, and whoever that other dude is. Went
out and just got all the info but couldn't report on
everything. Of course for national security. Let's hit
listening.
Good evening. As we come on the air. ABC News has learned that
US authorities are studying a new terror threat tonight.
Members of al Qaeda using body bombs and body
moms old boy explosives
that have been surgically implanted in their bodies to
evade security. Tomorrow it will be the one year anniversary of
Osama bin Laden's death, making this week a time of heightened
concern on the ground and in the sky and avcs chief investigative
correspondent Brian Ross is here with these new
Diane well tonight American and European authorities tell ABC
News they fear al Qaeda will use the so called body bombs to
target Americans overseas and US flights coming in from overseas.
Alright, so notice that it's American and European
authorities. No one I mentioned by name of course because that's
not how it works. It's just a PR stunt.
As a result, security at several airports in the United Kingdom
and elsewhere in Europe and the Middle East has been
substantially stepped up with a focus on US carriers and
additional federal air marshals have been shifted overseas in
advance of this week's anniversary of the bin Laden
raid. The plot is not so far fetched medical
Don't you love it? The plot is not so far fetched because you
can imagine this could actually happen Listen up, open your mind
to this this is gonna be good
per se there is plenty of room in the stomach area for
surgically implanted explosive
plenty of room in my house in your stomach area. John do you
have room for Yeah, got plenty of room here. Now let's look at
the chart we're actually looking at an a body an anatomical
picture of a body the surgeon would open the abdominal cavity
and literally implant the explosive device in amongst the
internal organs right in there right in between the intestine
right in there you see that spot right between all that poop
there? Because you know when this thing goes out, it's gonna
make a big mess. Now Now how can we tell how can we tell if
someone has had this in surgically implanted in their
stomach, liver and stomach?
For the last year the US authorities have publicly warned
that the al Qaeda affiliate in Yemen and its master bombmaker
Abraham Allah Siri
write that down Abraham Allah Siri he's the master bombmaker
here right
here. Yes Saudi interior ministry photo All right on the
ABC News
mark that down? Yeah, of course mark it down
at the designing body bombs with no metal parts to get past
airport security.
How do you think you set one of these off? Do you have to like
hit your stomach really hard? Or
there's no metal parts? I mean that you're blasting cap is a
metal part. Yeah, but he doesn't know how would you set it off
without a blasting cap?
This is not explained.
I mean, as far as I know. Most of these things that are high
explosives need a blasting cap.
Well, our our international correspondent forgot to ask that
question but it doesn't matter because it gets better.
We are treating the information seriously. A serie actually put
a bomb inside his own brother, who he seen here hugging
farewell for a suicide mission aimed at the Saudi Arabian
intelligence chiefs three years ago, the Saudi official survived
a series brother died in the attack.
Was that ever really explained that he had it was that a body
bomb? I thought it was in his turban.
I thought I don't know now as you mentioned it, I recall that
it was
in his turban and then it went off and blew his head off but
there was in his turban not a body.
He changed the story for God's sake. Yeah, please
wear ABC News on dance.
In public. US officials say there is no gets covered the
full information of an imminent attack. Cloud this, please. You
didn't hear that. Today. White House counterterrorism official
John Brennan called the al Qaeda group in Yemen, the greatest
threat to the US
and it continues to seek the opportunity to strike our
homeland.
Brennan also revealed for the first time some of the details
of Osama bin Laden seemingly despondent writings discovered
at his compound after the raid, Brennan said Bin Laden admitted
al Qaeda had lost its way agreeing that a large portion of
Muslims around the world have lost their trust in Al Qaeda.
confessing to disaster after disaster right now kind of
plots, Brennan said that bin Laden urged his followers to
flee the places away from aircraft photography and
bombardment. As to this current threat US authorities say they
have made adjustments in security screening to make it
easier to spot
now how do we spot people who have body bombs, John, just just
as a question, what would you think?
Well, I think we have to, first of all via check them for
hemorrhoids. Okay, that's a good one. It's it's making him strip
and see if they're lumpy. Okay,
the body bombs.
But how can they do it? You said there's no metal involved,
no metal, but they've turned up some of the radiation that goes
into the body.
Oh, we've turned up the radiation that goes into the
body. Turn up the rate
a bomb inside.
He's talking about damage. But listen, he's talking about the
body scanner. We've turned up the radiation.
Oh, my goodness. How can ABC news clip of the day you're
right?
No, I'll let me finish it. Before we get to the full on
award ceremony. He actually he actually says, Oh, we just
turned up the radiation. Wait a minute. The TSA told me when I
went through recently. You know, this is not radiation. Now it's
radiation. What is it? ABC News. Just turned up the radiation
just radiate the slaves into the body,
as well as looking for people who might have had recent
operations might be walking funny. Walking.
In history of funny walk,
I'm walking foot, hey, you're walking funny. Hey, Mickey,
you're screwed. You walk in funny. This is unbelievable. It
gets even better, or might have surgical scars. That
is one of those that has to have been done fairly recently, the
explosives
cannot stay in the body law. So it'd be an operation to insert.
And I know Brian, you were asked not to report some critical
details and you have not we
have not there's some that was left out for national security
for national
security. Yes, of course, some details like it's alive is that
the detail you
left this deal about? The explosives can stay in the body
for a while, who says why was that explained? Or is that just
one of those details maybe you know, in there for a year so the
scar heals completely. I don't know man is like roaming around
with, you know, waiting for the scars to heal so they can walk
through without being caught.
Let me give myself my award first here for a second day.
They said they were going to crank up the radiation.
So anyway, so
the clip that I will that little sidewalk out of the clip? I
will I will. So I heard Brennan talking. And this was really
interesting. Like, hey, wait a minute, Brennan and Brennan, of
course, is President Obama's advisor on on I have his exact
title. This Brennan is an interesting dude.
He's the chief counterterrorism adviser. Correct. And
he after he left the Bush White House, he became CEO of the
analysis corporation which has been rebranded to So Tara
defense. And now he's
was little groups that
want to be in that group for sure. So I'm like, wow, yeah, he
did a speech and he did indeed he did it at Where did he do
this speech? The Wilson Woodrow library, International Center
for Scholars. And like okay, I
tried to get a clip from that thing. I was watching that and I
didn't find the the guy's boring. Did you see the
slave that got rejected? I don't think you saw the whole thing is
just
a one with a woman. That hard that had he was a 16 year old
boy and you tell them I love one. Yes. They got ejected.
Yeah, I
love that. I
saw it.
Do you think it was it was worthy of letting people listen
because ABC News certainly didn't think it was worthy of
playing anything.
You know, I had the theory it's a long story. Why don't have
that clip. That doesn't matter.
Here it is and
the agenda and is increasingly looking to attack Western
interests in Nigeria to as in addition to Nigerian government
targets. More broadly, al Qaeda is killing of innocents, mostly
Muslim men, women and children has badly tarnished and I
want you to listen how after she's ejected, how he just picks
it right up and continues
its image and appeal in the eyes of Muslims around the world. He
asked me will you speak out about even been
by the United States? What about the hundreds of innocent people
we are killing with our drone strikes and Pakistan and in
Yemen and Somalia, I speak out on behalf of those innocent
victims. They deserve an apology from you, Mr. Brennan, ma'am.
Well, how many people are you willing to sacrifice? Why are
you lying to the American people and not saying how many
innocents have been killed?
I thank you ma'am for expressing your views. There will be time
for questions and answers
after the presentation. In Pakistan, who is killed because
he wanted to document the drone strikes, I speak out on behalf
of Abdul Rahman, Al a walkie 16 year old, born in Denver killed
him and just because his father was, we don't like I speak out
on
being carried now.
On behalf I love the role of law, I love my country are
making us less than many people around the world. Shame on you.
Close the door. And thank you. Thank you more broadly, okay,
this killing of innocent mostly men, women or children has bad
guys. Unbelievable.
Thank you, man. He just continued he did actually
explain
could have said something like, Well, that was unfortunate or
something light? No, no, just hang on. Just roll back. The
prompter more broadly. Just starts over. Ah, hey, Brandon,
you're in a hole. Okay. That's just that's just the plain
simple fact of the matter of the blather. But he did explain. I'm
surprised you didn't. You didn't like what he said. Because he
did kind of explain how it works and how they decide when to
drone somebody the so called COC the chain of command I think is
worth listening to. Well, I'm not going to go into
get it because I was stumped. I don't I can't explain why.
Something about this guy is just I can't really he's boring. But
you got to listen to him. Yeah, it was real difficult for me to
listen to this guy.
I'll try it this time.
Well, I'm not going to go into sort of how many times what
proportion?
This, by the way was the question and answer session.
Maybe you missed that. Did you see the question and answers?
No, I
was going to call the here's the
of, of in instances, there have been sort of either approvals or
declination of these recommendations that come
forward.
But I can just tell you that you need a recommendation to get
droned. Apparently there have
been numerous times where individuals that were put
forward for consideration
I just spit my coffee. They were put forward for consideration.
Really, for this type of action, it was declined.
Oh, John, I'm so lucky. My consideration was declined for
droning.
You you make reference to strikes that are frequently
reported in the press. I was speaking here specifically about
targeted strikes against individuals who are involved.
Everything we do, though, that is carried out against al Qaeda
is carried out consistent with the rule of law. authorization
to use military force and domestic law.
Oh, hold on a second rule of law, authorization of military
force and domestic law. It just so you know, it's completely
legal.
And we do it with a with a similar rigor. And there are
various ways that we can make sure that we are taking the
actions that we need to
we need some analogies give me an analogy, Brennan to prevent a
terrorist attack. That's the whole purpose of whatever action
we use. The tool we use, is to prevent attack and to save
lives.
To save lives, we save lives by killing people. And
so I spoke today for the first time openly about, again, what's
commonly referred to in the press as drones, remotely
piloted aircraft,
hey, let's say it properly from now on remotely piloted aircraft
RPA is this is not drones, you stupid plebs don't use that word
that can give you that type of, of laser like precision laser
like that can excise that terrorist or that excise threat
in a manner that again with the medical metaphor, that will not
damage the surrounding tissue
doesn't damage the surrounding tissue.
So what we're really trying to do as a cancer throughout the
world and as a cancer metastasized, metastasized
cancer in so many different places, and when that that
metastases metastasize tumor becomes lethal and malignant,
that's when we're going to take the action we need to last
it's surgical precision laser like exercise, cut out the
cancer, even though it doesn't really exist anymore. Cut out
the cancer. It A I apologize to the rest of the world. I'm with
that lady who got picked up by the big big police officer in
the yellow uniform big fat guy in he literally picked her up
and carried her out.
Yeah, literally I think it took a while for him to get a grip on
her though. I think he was letting her go blather for a
while in a real you know one of these situations with a guy like
Brennan on the stick Taser they should be instant three guide
boom she's out.
Just dive in on her tasing the crap out of her Actually you're
right actly
I'm honored Taser and pull her out of there before she even go
on and make a point about for a long time
you didn't see that on TV Did you? You used to see those
things on TV when something like that happened on the news it
would be like Wow, can you believe
that thing that took place and I think it was actually stems from
from Strykers.
We need more streaking going on this is the point
recurs in this country of course now it's now you're by the way
if you're a streak or in other words running around naked, you
will be cited as a pervert and put on the sexual that that
list.
Yeah, the sexual offender ledgers list whatever it is
predator, a pedo bear list.
So at some point, I think it was during I think it was also it
was a decision made by the sports department and many of
these networks it says do not if somebody streaks across do not
put the camera on him under any circumstances, because it was
determined from high or high above that it just encourages
other people to do it. Right. So during the early days of
streaking in the 70s Did you ever St. John Doe No. Mani cam?
I look like a streaker to you
that you I don't know you might be concealing some al Qaeda
bombs in your body.
Yeah, it'd be dragging along the ground and we know what the fuse
is. That's for sure. You know, see miss that. So anyway, I
heard it the day so they would show it that showed the streaker
you know they blew up they do a little blocks out into the
private parts. But they showed this trigger running around the
stadium and you know, in a football game or something, it
was hilarious. And then somebody grab him and hold him up. So
they stopped doing that and I think has been just generally
it's just a policy by all the stations not to show anything
that's that's out of off script, like this protest because it
will just encourage others. And what of course what it does is
it puts a damper on everything because people show well, I
guess it's okay because nobody's protests
not entirely true because we recently had the guy the he was
a technical expert, but on the good side sysadmin and he and he
took all his clothes off at the TSA checkpoint, and they show
that everywhere you know, it's just like, Oh, he's got naked
crazy guy got naked. I think we need streaking to come back.
streaking would be a very, very good meme to bring back.
I don't think it's ever really totally disappeared. Yeah,
soccer games in Europe now.
rarely, rarely.
It seems rarely because they don't. They don't promote it
anymore. I
don't I'll never forget when I was seven or eight and I saw my

challenge I was considering a knighthood to do it before
1212 12. Here's my first installment a 30303 towards
1212 1212 which I intended to complete for 1212 12
That's the way to do it. Do four equal payments. That's
cool. Let's see I should put it on the option list on the

It certainly does.
You've got karma.
Right Associate Executive Producers Aaron Magoffin or
megaphone megaphone. Magoffin. One of the two Woodstock ontario
29197. Fellas, I prefer to say that donating is lusting. And I
have been humping your awesome show for far too long without a
proper hors renumeration. Let it be said that I require no karma
because I've been skimming it from everyone else since it
started. After all, no agendas entirely open source in its
stead. ADAM You can play the it's the Sunday morning service
gospel jingle because I wrote it and sang all the parts and
almost blew a nut singing John C. Dvorak. I accidentally played
it at church at a church website. Why was my face read?
But I'm certain that Taylor Swift could not do a better job
Wow, that's
so it's so nice to hear from ya. Let me play that for you right
now. Children
gonna get a little
he played that insurance by accident. Oops. Guys, what is
this? That's executive producers Associate Executive Producer and
I want to thank them for supporting the show which is
show number I just goes to read 405405 and remind everyone to go
to dork.org/and a channel to vorak.com/na no agenda show.com
where you can also listen to the show and no agenda nation.com
where you can also buy a coin or a mug or by the way the mug I
think the mugs which are not going to be done again by the
way, they're all Oh, they're ours. I don't know because he
got the apparently the government it's a long story.
But Eric got harassed, really essentially by bringing these
mugs in. From where? China
really like an embargo on mugs? Yeah, no, it
was just it was a nightmare.
Oh, wait a minute. Story. You're telling me there's a mug
embargo.
No, there was just a some time he was targeted for some reason?
Yeah.
Gee, what could that be? I wonder forex.org/and A, what
could it be? What could it be? I'm looking to see if there's an
embargo on Cuban mugs,
I'm sure. Wanting to get some Cuban mugs, cigars.
The mug maker. I hear we got on an embargo not only on Cuban
mugs. Interesting. I'd love to hear the story one day that that
sounds fascinating. No PR mentioned but that's okay. We do
appreciate our brand new nights. Executive Producers Very, very
kind of you to support the program support the work of
course, you see how it goes right? And luckily, there's two
of us. You know, John didn't make it he fell down after
watching half of the John Brennan speech and you know, I
and my youth was able to stick with it and got a second clip.
And but we were both watching and we're doing it so you don't
have to of course, you can always go out and you can
propagate the formula which goes something like this.
Our formula is this. We go out we hit people in the mouth
Come on, everybody. Shut up
right on, was good. I love it. One. When when people really
help us out, and we will be thanking more of our producers
later on in the program. Oh,
that's what I forgot. Darn it. I knew I had that clip somewhere.
Was one of these guys. It was a Navy guy. I think he was on and
he talked like that. That was I think that JC is walking by so
holy crap. What
sometimes? Yeah, sometimes Obama also talks like that. Have you
noticed?
No. Notice
when people do that is highly annoying. You almost want to say
Hey, dude, stop it. Alright, other big news this week, John?
Wow. I mean, the media is just really, really, really on. On
message. On message I tell you because not only do we need to
make you very, very afraid of body bombs, so we can turn up
the radiation. But we also have to curtail your first amendment
rights and, and get ready to clamp down on speech. So you
can't say something ugly to anybody else. Because that would
be illegal. We already have all these bullying laws. And let me
tell you, this is not just something that happens with
humans, my friends. This happens in nature, and it's bad. We have
to stop that bullying
on that wayward dolphin stranded in shallow water outside Los
Angeles. Rescuers are now speculating the mammal may be a
victim of bullying, and is afraid to swim the freedom ABCs
David Wright has that story.
G ABC again, huh?
For nearly a week this way. We're dolphin nicknamed Freddie
has kept to the shallow waters of a wetlands reserve in Orange
County, Peter Wallerstein and five California Fish and Game
officers gone out there paddleboards tried to shoo him
into the open ocean. Shuman, something unusual happened. For
other dolphins appeared to be waiting to gang up on Freddie
turn tail ran right back to the shallows
for some reason there's tension amongst the dolphins. He's gay.
That's why was it bullying? We don't know. But it was some kind
of discipline.
And did he seem scared but he seemed
very scared.
And I've been doing rescues for what does it dolphins who's
scared look like? Does he actually have a grimace? Is he
like shivering you know how do you know if a dolphin is scared?
This report by the way is outstanding the way they package
this keep listening
27 years in Southern California and I haven't seen anything like
this
strange behavior for creatures we think of as smart playful and
good natured.
flipper ever bully
another dolphin This is Mind
control people. This is total mind control.
This is credible. This this is the Clip of the Day.
Now we can't do two can we do two clips of the day really?
Again?
We've done two before. day ladies and gentlemen, Adam curry
is on a roll. That's right. Everybody
is the Clip of the Day. How you doing? Dolphins being bullied.
He looks so frightened. If you if you can tell if he looks
frightened, then you can also tell if he's gay or not.
And this is for dolphins ready to beat him up. Like harassing a
dolphin beat up another dolphin? I guess they poke him.
I've swam with dolphins. Have you ever done that? That's
pretty cool. Yeah. Oh man. But did anybody ever tell you the
story? No, I'm not interested. That involves penis.
I didn't do even less interesting. Okay.
I won't tell my dolphin story then. It's a good story
that somebody wants to contribute to the show and it
demands you tell it and maybe we'll do something I'm
against. You're against the dolphin and Pina style. I
hear the rest of this segment Are you done? Yeah.
Yeah, pretty much
I think there's ludicrous these news people I mean, this is that
they make like millions of dollars some of these anchors on
these.
Diane Sawyer makes millions of dollars and she's drunk. She's
awesome. And we know we needed anyone now Ryan Seacrest as you
should
As he predicted Seacrest is making you know what he makes
now,
let me guess. Just salaries without his production company.
8 million. He makes $50 million. Yeah, that's what that's what
the Kardashians.
Yeah. Well, he's well, yeah. And power to him.
But this guy is going to be on the Today show. He's going to be
the special correspondent. Oh man, I hope they blow something
up at the Olympics because he's doing that. I hope they blow him
up. We're so sorry. We blew up Ryan Seacrest, and oh, he won't
hear some of his hair. I have respect for him that I have
nothing against them. Personally. It's just like, This
guy is not going to bring us the news.
Yeah, it's ludicrous. Please, please. I have a an interesting
depends on that. You want to stick stick with the bullying
topic?
No, I'm okay. I'm okay. I just just wanted to point out that
bullying laws are being put in place. And they take away your
right to say to someone you suck. Did Yeah. Did you just
drop your bottle of scotch?
Bang in a thought? Yeah.
It's your bottle of scotch? Scotch. Are you vying for that
Diane Sawyer job already?
Yeah, I am. Okay. I just can't drink enough. So the new chief
of staff is this guy. Martin Dempsey.
Yeah, it looks like Obama's Chief of Staff. The chief of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff. Oh, right. Right, right. Well, I
think he's not quite as just he seems he's always telling joy
comes out. When he gives us speeches, he tells a lame joke.
He's Irish, obviously. He looks Irish. And it looks like he
probably can drink with the best of them. Yeah, but he seems like
a pretty good guy to like Molan. And, but he, when he he's a
little less circumspect. So when he does his, he does a lot of
talks. And he's on he seems to be more of a media whore than
Mullen ever was. And he tells these stories that are like my
fate. And so he was talking about the Iraq War. And some of
us just kind of brief in some group about one thing or
another. And he and this I got this clip out of this was how
dumb were we is the name of this clip, where he explains what
we're doing when we were Iraqi. He says that it's taken us like
10 years to even figure out anything, apparently. And you
play this and you'll see what I'm talking
about. So I was, I was training this group of let's call them.
National Guardsmen really is what they mean. That's what we
call them. Now that I remember the Iraqi National Guard, I was
training them to actually operate in a counterinsurgency
environment against an enemy that was very well armed, by the
way, even by then by October of oh three, the enemy began to
manifest itself, the insurgency, and they were good. I mean, they
were armed and equipped and organized. But the police that
we were building, were being trained in investing, you know,
in investigations and in traffic tickets, you know, traffic
circles, I'm not making that up. And I'm not denigrating it. It
was an instinct, we were mirror imaging our own experience. And
the police were getting clobbered. I mean, their police
stations were being run over, they were being killed by the
dozens. And so it took us a bit of time to come together
Department of State Department defense, and decide how we would
work collaboratively on building up both the army and the police.
And we conceded that for a time these police are going to have
to have capability that you wouldn't have to have were you
sitting here and in Washington DC.
So I'm thinking as I'm listening to this, he had a very long talk
that we you remember when we want when we waltzed into Iraq,
they thought they were gonna be throwing roses at us and all it
was was essentially we're gonna take over the place for a while
and then just put our institutions in as if, yeah.
Rumsfeld's naivete, and the whole Bush group's naivete about
this, I think was pretty much is summarized there by Mullen
talking about their teaching the cops how to give traffic
tickets, because that's what we do.
This is where I'd like to tell my story again about my visit to
Iraq, in 2003, when I was with the Dutch Marines at camp,
Smitty broadcasting live for a week, so we're there for about
10 days. And every day, they would take us out to a different
place and or a different town or to see something it's like a
little sightseeing sightseeing was like a little touristic
journey with flak jackets and helmets on. And they took us to
one of these training camps where they were training the
Iraqi guard, as he called it, he said what we used to call it the
National Guard and we don't call it that anymore. And I think
somewhere there's video of it. In fact, I'm sure there is I'd
have to call somebody to dig it up. Have you ever seen the
program that the British television show from the 60s
called Dad's Army? No. Okay, so you have to YouTube that you
have to see dad's Army. This is like a bunch of it's almost like
Hogan's Heroes with Colonel Schultz. And not Colonel
Sergeant sharp. And Colonel Klink, right. Yeah, so Schultz,
he was basically a dumb fat German. So these guys they line
up giving them a drill instructor and the drill
instructor says about face and I swear to God, John half the guys
turn right the other half turns left, it was the funniest,
funniest thing I've ever seen. Like, these guys can do shit.
They can't they couldn't do anything with unloaded the AK 40
sevens. It just wouldn't, I wouldn't mock rifles. Because,
you know, God forbid that someone would get an idea and
start shooting up the place. It was ridiculous. It was a total
scam. And we were literally like looking at each other. Like,
what the hell it was about, I got to put a clip a YouTube clip
of Dad's Army and you'll know exactly what I'm talking about.
It was just like that. And we were just like, whoa, okay.
Anyway, just wanted to give that little anecdote.
Ya know, I, you know, I've shown these occasionally in some of
these news shows that will show some of this stuff, but these
guys are they can't hold the gun. They dropped the guns.
Yeah, exactly. If they fire the gun, and then they drop it out
of fear, you know, kind of thing. That was explosion.
Something's wrong with this gun a scam.
It would be really funny if we didn't kill 100,000 people or
more. And
then we'll be hilarious the process we're essentially a
bankrupt country now. Play the Iraq War. How dumb part two, and
we'll see what he says there.
Over time, this whole of government collaboration began
to began to bear fruit. But to your other point about the
complexity of this, you know, issues of rule of law, and I'll
add corruption are extraordinarily difficult to
overcome, because it's very difficult for us to even see it.
And then let alone having seen it, address it. And as you know,
just two years ago, we we had a stand up anti corruption Task
Force in Afghanistan, because we realized that the very mission
was being placed at risk because of corruption. So I wouldn't
suggest to you that we have turned the corner on fully
understanding, first of all, how to address that as a whole of
government. Secondly, what the military's role is, but I will
say we've come a long way since Oh, three. And that as we go
forward as a learning organization, we have to keep
plugging away at it. But we've, by the way, the end of this
story is we were closer as a inter agency as as as various
agencies, we are a network. We are a network. But what we're
all challenging ourselves now is, how much better do we need
to be to confront the challenges that are coming? We know how to
confront the ones we just passed by?
You don't need that man. Just get some drones.
10 years since 2003, that he's talking about I mean, what,
these guys are trained to Chimp breaking the bank. And they're
well, you know, we didn't know anything about the corruption.
Look, it took us 10 years to figure that out. Well, now we
figured that out. We did because they're not in the middle. You
obviously they're in their base, you know, in the green zone in
Iraq, for example. Yeah, they're just not out there. They don't
know what they're doing, essentially just admitted
incompetence. We suck and we know it. Yeah, we suck. But
we're learning. We're getting there. We're learning some
stuff. It's good. It took us a while, you know, but we're
learning. We're better than we were
10 years. What's your problem? Slaves shut up and pay me. So we
missed something, John.
Oh, we missed something all the time. Yeah.
But I luckily I picked up on it. Because, again, this is from C
span. Is it a meme we missed? No. It's a huge, huge policy
document. Oh, yeah. Which I took the liberty of reading through
for us. And I was quite surprised by this. And this,
coincidentally happened April 17, which was just about the
time I think the President, the Secret Service scandal was
taking place and to revisit that for people. Our assertion is
that the Secret Service scandal was a cover up a cover, if you
will, so that the United States would not have to talk about
drug policy with the Colombians and the Brazilians, Guatemalans
and the Guatemalans who basically want to make it not
only completely legal to draw down drug trafficking, which is
proven to work in countries like Portugal, but also to take a fee
on anything that they find and
they wanted their money they want they want their money, they
want their stuff compensated.
So but of course we know that the the, the illicit drug trade
is what's keeping the United States economy afloat. And the
primary mission of the Secret Service is to protect the
integrity of the American financial system. You may not
believe that, but if you go to their website, it says it right
there. The number one mission number two is to protect the
president and vice president and anyone else they deem necessary.
But our drugs are outlined our new drug strategy. And I did not
know we had one, a drug strategy? Well, we have a new
one, which was officially released, it's the National Drug
Control Strategy for 2012 was officially released the very
same time that this was taken place. So this is basically this
should have been discussed at the summit. Yeah, you're right.
But it didn't get discussed. So I so I'm watching C span, I'm
like, oh, drugs are okay. And then I'm like, Hey, hold on a
second,
let me characterize those views for you. On the one side, we
have a very vocal, organized, well funded advocates who insist
that drug legalization is a silver bullet for addressing our
nation's drug problem. Then we have the other side. On the
other side of the debate are those who insist that law
enforcement only War on Drugs approach, the one that was just
mentioned, is the way to create a drug free society. You know,
if only we could spend more money on prisons and enforcement
and increase arrests and seizures of drugs, that logic
goes, the drug problem will at some point, just go away? Well,
the Obama administration strongly believes that neither
of these approaches is humane, its competitor, not
compassionate, not realistic. Probably most importantly, they
are not grounded in science. The approach was also not
acknowledged the complexity of our nation's drug problem, or
reflect what science has shown us over the past two decades.
Whenever you can put the answer to a complex problem on a bumper
sticker, you know, you probably don't have much of an answer.
That's why two weeks ago, we released the National Drug
Control Policy, and it pursues a third way Oh, our nation to
approach drug control. This is a 21st century approach. Oh,
policy. It's progressive. It's innovative. It's evidence based,
and it represents what we believe is a way ahead for drug
policy. So you
can imagine my my head swiveled around, there's a third way that
John, we've only been discussing the two ways and now there's a
third way, which is the 21st century solution to the problem.
And after this invigorating speech from this very motivated
speaker, I'm sure you're dying to hear what that third way is,
will I'm sure you looked it up? Yes, I
did. And it's, well, it's only a couple 100 pages. So this is
that was director Kerala kowski.
How do you spell his name, K
kilo echo Romeo, Lima, India, kilo, Oscar whiskey Sierra,
Sierra kilo echo, Kerala kowski. So this is the national drug
control strategy known as the NDCs 2012. And just want to
outline first the strategy reflects new developments in our
efforts to reduce drug use and its consequences, but our goal
remains the same. That goal is very lofty, John a 15% reduction
in rate of drug abuse. Wow. That's Wow, you guys are setting
the bar really high. 15%. So already I'm intrigued. So here's
the the detail of the goals decrease the 30 day prevalence
of drug abuse among 12 to 17 year olds by 15%. Decrease the
lifetime prevalence of eighth graders who have used drugs,
alcohol or tobacco is by 15%. Decrease the 30 day prevalence
of drug abuse among young adults by only 10% Because we got to we
got to keep the money moving. You know, we can't like decrease
too much.
By the way the underrepresented I got a I looked this guy up on
the on the book of knowledge. And he's a he's a blockhead.
Yeah, he
is he is a blockhead. And good point. I've reduced the number
of chronic drug users by 15%. And then we want to improve the
public health and public safety of the American people by
reducing the consequences of drug abuse. This is important
because now we're sending a lot of people to jail, reduce drug
induced deaths by 15%. Reduce drug related morbidity by 15%
and reduce the prevalence of drug driving by only 10%. We got
to keep people drugged and driving.
You know what? Not to interrupt again. But you ain't one of his
Jobs was entered in the 70s. His responsibility was was saluting
President Richard Nixon as he boarded the Presidential HELOC.
That was his job that was his his guy and he was awarded the
presidential seat herb is bad. That's correct.
Yeah, actually I did. I did have that. I did have that
information. So he's a CU was like a greeter, like tele
greeter
at Walmart, like Telly Savalas
used to be at Bally's. So what surprised me? Well, I know I'm
sorry, it didn't surprise me. So they're going to reduce this by
10% 10 15%. We got to make the money back somewhere, guess what
we're going to do that. We're going to do it in healthcare. It
all comes together and all starts to make sense. Through
the SB IRT program, the SBIRT, which stands for Screening,
Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment. How does this
work, screening for illicit drug use and use of prescription
drugs enables physicians to guard against possible drug
interactions and start a conversation about the negative
effects of illicit drug use on the health computer SBIRT holds
promise for decreasing several types of illicit drug use in
hospitalized women after childbirth, providing SBIRT and
health systems. That means insurance companies and the
whole healthcare system, including primary care hospitals
and urgent care settings, and ensuring these systems include
specialty treatment, or referral to treatment brings medical care
for substance use disorders into broader health systems as
envisioned in the Affordable Care Act. So what's going to
happen here is you're going to be involuntarily screened for
drugs, and, and the even even they even put it in here,
they're making up codes. Here it is, sa MH sa has or whatever
that is, has partnered with the Centers for Medicare and
Medicaid Services to develop and disseminate the codes available
for billing SBIRT services to Medicaid. So it's in the system.
So you're going to be screened and tested, you'll get an early
intervention. And that is all going to be paid for, of course,
by insurance, which means that it's all going to come out of
r&r premiums, I
guess, yeah. Just another way to gouge the public by requiring
about by requiring that requiring that insurers offer
coverage for substance abuse is substance use disorder treatment
services. The Affordable Care Act, which is known as Obamacare
in the public mouth, will expand access to substance use disorder
treatment, and help establish as it as a part of mainstream
health care systems. When the Affordable Care Act is fully
implemented in 2014, millions more Americans will have
coverage, it will therefore be necessary to expand and further
train the specialty and primary care workforce is John, this is
going to be a bonanza. Because of course, everybody's high. We
all know that. Now, there's some statistics, which I thought were
interesting, under Chapter Four break the cycle of drug use,
annual state corrections spending has increased to more
than $50 billion in 2010.
I like to when they make it a disorder,
of course, it's a disorder. In 2010, over 7 million people in
the United States, were under the supervision of the criminal
justice system, over 2 million incarcerated and the remaining 5
million on probation or parole. I mean, you're talking about
some big numbers here. And then we have and I hadn't heard about
this, and this is the thing that really blew me away with the
there's just a line I picked up with the enactment and
retroactive application of the Fair Sentencing Act. The
disparity in sentencing between offenses for crack cocaine and
powder cocaine has been drastically reduced. I'm like,
Well, what is this all about? Now, the Fair Sentencing Act
which we missed, quite honestly, was signed into law by President
Obama in 2010.
Yeah, we didn't completely miss it. I was aware of it. This was
the this law was passed for the purposes of normalizing
sentencing between blacks and whites,
right. But what it does is there was a 100 to 10 sentencing
disparity. In other words, if you had five grams of crack, you
would you faced a 10 year mandatory minimum for carrying
you face 10 years, right for five grams of crack. So what
they've done now is they've moved that up, so they haven't
reduced cocaine cocaine is you have to have 500 grams before
you get your five year mandatory because of course rich people
500 Yeah. 500 grams
of yes of powder cocaine faces five year mandatory order to
mountain and yes, yeah, that's, that's a lot of blow
would think, like Scarface, but think
of I got it. This is for rich people, the rich people who can
afford that I've no idea what it cost but it seems like that
would be
a wouldn't be cheap Heidi some
for 500 If you get nailed with 500 grams of course every
congressman has 500 grams in his bait in his office. But for
black people as you point out the way it's literally written
in this they changed it from five grams of crack which of
course even Whitney Houston you know said crack is wack. We
don't do crack, which is obviously a you know, is a
little bit of rock cocaine. It boiled down and some horrible
chemicals. They've raised that. So you can now have 28 grams of
crack before you get hit with a five year mandatory sentence.
This is great. Weed the messages smoke more crack. Am I nuts? Are
my smoke more crack? Hey, hey, man, how many grand 25 grams,
you're good to go. Don't worry about it. Smoke more crack. It's
awesome.
Well, that's the favor that Obama has done for the black
community. They've been white waiting for him to do something
they can smoke crack community. And that's you can you can give
Obama 100% of the credit for that one that we
can smoke more crack? Yeah, good. Well, that's great. I
think this is a 21st century solution right there.
Smoke more crack smoke more crack or crack act.
More smoke more crack act. So apparently, yeah. So what
they're doing now is they're saying well, the administration
supports a combined health and safety approach to addressing
substance abusing offenders. And so they now have drug courts,
where they guess they count how much crack you had. And by the
way, this is a $10 billion bill, of which 6 billion is still
going to law enforcement. So it's complete crap and just lies
there 2600 drug courts, and they continue that number continues
to grow as this as this document points out, proudly, okay. Let
me just skim through this here for a second. They want to
disrupt domestic drug trafficking and production,
again, a 21st century solution. And this we've got kind of
crazy, transnational criminal organizations operating in the
United States produce, import or distribute illicit drugs through
the nation, posing a persistent and dangerous threat to public
health and safety. These organized organizations use
parcel services, tunnels, aircraft, trains, boats,
vehicles with hidden compartments, and other
convenient and other conveniences to traffic drugs
into and throughout the nation, particularly along the
southwestern northern borders. Hello, Canada, you're paying
attention. In addition to traditional drugs, here comes
communities are now concerned with a new synthetic drugs, such
as those commonly sold as bath salts. This is our bath salts
mean coming back. And synthetic cannabinoids sold a spice or k
two. And this of course, ultimately creates criminal
organizations. So we got to crack down on the spice and k
two and on the bath salts. So we're going to maximize federal
support Drug Law Enforcement Task Forces. Let me just scroll
down here for a second. We're going to improve intelligence
and exchange and information sharing with these so called
Fusion Centers. This is very scary, these fusion centers that
are popping up everywhere. Yeah. And here's what's interesting.
As a part of this, we're going to develop a national plan for
southbound interdiction of currency and weapons. Now I had
to let that sink in. Because it says here to enhance efforts to
combat to combat bulk cash smuggling, ie money going out of
the country, southbound ice has expanded his operations at the
bulk cash smuggling center in 2011, which is an investigative
support and Operations Center designed to assist ice ice and
it's international domestic law enforcement partners with the
investigation, seizure, forfeiture, and arrest of
subjects involved in transnational crimes that are
facilitated by the movement of illicit proceeds through bulk
cash smuggling IE, keep the money here you slaves. Don't let
it leave the country. And then finally, well, there's something
about eradicating marijuana cultivation, which basically is
all about California. But here is the counter domestic meth
amphetamine by the way.
Yeah, if they get that program underway and they start
eradicating marijuana cultivation, which is mostly in
Mendocino County, I might add, if they want to know where to
go, and they start busting burn in these places to the ground
and getting rid of all that stuff. You can then these idiots
who are they growing this stuff and voted against legalizing
marijuana in the state of California and promoted not
having marijuana legalized medical marijuana because they
were making so much money in the black market. They deserve what
happens. This is they brought it on themselves.
It's Calusa Glen Lake, Mendocino to Hama and Trinity to be exact.
is listed in there. Oh, yeah. Yeah, no, you're right, John, I
always know that you know what's up when it comes to weed? So
here, here's an interesting
in the in Berkeley, so I guess it has something to do with it.
So of course,
meth meth is a big deal because you know, you can have a meth
lab in your pants as we learned on the previous episode you can
have in a coke bottle, counter domestic methamphetamine
production. How are we going to do this? The danger posed by the
smaller labs remains significant. I guess that's the
one on your pants. Several options are being considered to
further reduce methamphetamine production, including
prescription only status for pseudo differ Drean and EFA
dream products. In other words, you will now have to get a
prescription for NyQuil another healthcare Bonanza, I tell you,
but here's a word that I hadn't heard of. Improved restrictions
that are designed to eliminate smurfing would decrease the
number of methamphetamine laboratories and the
corresponding dangers they pose had you ever heard of smurfing?
You know,
I have but I can't for the life of me. No, I can't remember what
it is
from the Urban Dictionary. In relation to meth smurfing is a
term that is used to describe a person or group of people that
go from one store to another
and again, involving the right one bottle of pills. Exactly.
Interestingly, the term smurfing actually comes from the banking
world. smurfing, as it relates to banking was coined to
describe a process in which a bank would break up huge
financial transactions into smaller ones in order to avoid
tipping off the government or raising any red flags. Now that
was kind of interesting that we have the word smurfing used in
there. So as I as I go through this entire thing, it seems to
be a war against bath salts. It seems to be a war against
Nyquil. It seems to be encouraging poor people to smoke
more crack, because you're not going to go to jail now. And it
seems to Inc, not only encouraged but codified into
law. The process, because you know, whenever you go to a
doctor, your idea, do you take any any drugs like cocaine,
marijuana, etc? Yeah, of course, you always say no, no, no, I
don't do that. It doesn't matter, because he's gonna
screen you know, and it's going to be a part of your health care
package, and it will be mandatory, and then you're going
to get an intervention. So you're going to be there and the
doctor is going to close the door, and it's going to lock.
And he's going to bring in your friends and your parents, and
then it's a big pain in the ass. And they gotta get
in and bring in as a bookkeeper. So they can keep track of money.
And it's so cute, because
they'll have codes for it. Ah, yeah, that's the good news.
That's awesome. And by the way, all this is marked up in a PDF
file for you under clips and stuff in the show notes at 405
got an A shownotes.com. Just so you know, you're going to get to
mandatory drug screening and intervention. And, but it
doesn't matter. Because as long as you stay under the 28 grams
of crack, you're good to go. Great. That's me. Spells 21st
century solution, John, right there.
Yeah, definitely. So yeah, that's that's just as time
marches on. What can I say? Meanwhile, on the topic of,
let's say, drugs, medical world of medicine. I have a clip,
which it did tell me if you can, you can see what the why I clip
this show. From this. This is a new HBO show called girls.
Oh, God, Nikki watches that she forces me to watch. It's
terrible. But
did you catch this one?
Good afternoon court or gallery? Hey, it's me. Hi, you. How are
you? I got a call from the doctor with my results. Yeah.
And do you? It would appear that I do. Yes. Have something I got
what? I kind of can't believe that. I'm saying this but I have
HPV so Marnie. Are you crying?
It was so unfair and like years So Oh careful about sex,
everything you know, like nervous. I just figured that
like for people that are really really scared of flying, their
planes never go down. It's just not how it works. Oh my god. But
if you can have children, Marnie, I'm fine. Okay,
I'm fine. Fucking out. Thank you to me. Okay, he got tested and
he doesn't have it. I think it was Elijah.
So this is very interesting.
Did you catch the second meme in there? That was subtle? Yeah.
About the he got tested? No, it wasn't Adam. Think of Adam in
the Bible. It was Elijah a dirty Jew.
Well, let me expand on that. I'm glad you got this because I was
very tired when this was on. And I remember Mickey and I looking
at each other going like, Oh, my God, really? Are they promoting
this, but they took it one step further. So they explain the
entire process of testing, that boys cannot get tested for this.
But even better, the dirty Jew, Elijah, as you point out, turns
out he's gay. And he's always been gay. And he was even
thinking of having sex with men when he was having sex with her.
So as this story unfolds, I guarantee you, he is going to
get have to get tested so he doesn't get throat cancer. And I
know this because I have developed a relationship with
several doctors, ever since we started on this HPV testing
thing that I started uncovering, by the way. Thank you, arson
omics for creating an awesome YouTube video, which is for our
world has gone viral, like 98 people is very viral for us. And
I've gotten you know, I've got
his fight, and it will fight. I've gotten a man,
screw and demand. But I've gotten emails from people from
like sane, vax.org. And like, oh, you should interview me on
your show. I don't even answer the emails like, these are all
these are all they're all crazy themselves. But I have developed
a relationship with two doctors and one of them I'm calling Dr.
Deep Throat. And Dr. Deep Throat has he's he's getting the all
the information. He's giving me all the information and even
some documentation. Because what I want to know is, is there an
actual script? Is there a scam to the HPV testing process? And
just to review quickly, and this was also on the HBO show, you go
in for your annual or in some cases, it's every two years,
you're going through your eight year test your Pap smear, I like
to say schmear, your Pap smear, you get a call that says well,
it was inconclusive. And that means you could be pre cancerous
this by the way, a huge red flag with all these doctors. They
like the word precancerous, which came back in the show.
They talked about it, he actually said that she had three
cancer is not a medical term. If someone says to you pre cancer,
as you can say you're full of crap, that does not exist, it is
not a medical term. So then you have to come back, you do a very
uncomfortable biopsy, you're freaking out. And then exactly
what's happening here because it's an STD you only get it
through having sex with someone and men carry this around
forever. And, and you know, you're like, oh, did my did my
husband cheated on me what what went on? And then it turns out
that you don't have it and that's when that's when the
sales pitch occurs. And the doctor says, you know, you
should get the HPV shot. So here's what Dr. Deep Throat
tells me. He says, these machines remember a Hologic is
now teamed up with Merck, who makes Gardasil, the vaccine. He
says the machines have a very high rate of false positives by
design. He says these machines are highly regulated by both
state and federal government. Those entities I'm reading
verbatim, tend to lead towards false positives because it lends
to a lower rate of malpractice suits. So he says the whole
thing is systemic. So they're meant to throw a huge number of
false positives, because not only are they worried about
malpractice lawsuits, which is probably at the top of the list,
but the minute that happens, boom, you go from 70 bucks to
700 bucks to 800 bucks for the HPV shot. And of course the the
medical practitioner walks along in the profit process as Dr.
Deep Throat says. Unfortunately, these false positives lead to a
number of problems. Although a lot of the physicians are
genuinely good people with the best patient care in mind which
I believe they are limited by the test results given them. The
insurance industry dictates a minimum level of certainty
before treatment is dictated and covered. And depending on the
lobbying abilities of the industry that certainly is thus
defined typically by this states Board of Health. It's a nasty
cycle is getting worse as drugs become tailored to genetics and
eventually individuals, it will only become more corrupt and
short answer he says again, it's rigged by design. He is getting
the the statistics on the amount of false positives. He also
points out that only 10% of the positives for HPV actually
turned out to have HPV, which I thought was very, very low
number considering all of the hysteria. So not necessarily,
it's even worse than we thought, you know, I wish I had someone
who said, Yeah, I got the script from the guy who sold the
machine to me, and here's how it works. It's even worse. They're
designed to produce false positives. And that's why
Gardasil made by Merck, who makes Gardasil and Hologic who
makes the new high throughput test lots of women over time,
are in cahoots with each other. The whole thing is completely
rigged. Unfortunately, and this is the only thing that really
bothers me. Is that the medical profession, the bad actors, the
greedy ones, are misusing this and terrorizing women. Here's
one note from Ben. Cuz like they keep on streaming and people who
see the same thing happening over and over again, my wife's
experience was a little different. She had a checkup was
fine, but we're still recommend that to get the HPV shot. She
explained she was married and not worried. And the doctor
said, Well, you never know men aren't faithful, you should
protect yourself. Wow.
What a great guy that doctor is.
Isn't it isn't outrageous.
Unbelievable. She should have slapped him.
So we'll see. We'll see the now of course, this HBO series is
very interesting. I'm glad you reminded me of it. Because I
want to see how this unfolds with the gay guy. If that's what
a good catch, by the way, the atom analyzer bit. Let's see if
the gay guy now is worried and if he's gonna get the HPV shot
because he can't get tested, but we'll get the he'll get the shot
shot. Yeah. So, you know, we don't know who's paying for
these programs. But you can bet there's something going on.
Yeah, it's just essentially corruption. This is systemic
corruption within the medical industry. Thanks to the
insurance companies there's ever the whole thing I mean, this is
Obamacare is just pushing this, you know, people keep saying
well, Obamacare people aren't gonna get it. It's all about
insurance. Yeah, they would go to single payer government
controlled I mean, even though I know every right winger out
there things as terrible as socialized medicine is no good.
Look how bad it works in England and all the rest of it. It would
at least get these insurance companies out. Yeah, we could
deal with it later. You are we were the Americans. We can fix
these things. We can make these things work. So but right now
it's this is going in the wrong direction and is creating
Can you do that? Can you do that again? We're Americans, we can
make things work. That was really good. Do that again.
With your American Speech,
we're Americans and we can make things work.
Beautiful. Yeah, okay. That's what you're passing on to your
kids, not HPV. You are passing on. Humongous cost. Oh, I'm
sorry. Doctor Deep Throat just email me. Only 10% turned out to
be cancer. Even worse. I thought it was HPV. There's only 10% of
the cancer. You could have HPV but not the cancer kind. You
could just have the human papilloma virus, which will go
away your body actually fixes that it's like herpes. Now the
herpes doesn't necessarily go away.
Oh wow. It's true. Herpes doesn't go away.
And conductor Deep Throat I love doctor deep throat open, widely
open. So that is how it rolls everybody. I got a lot of guys
and we know I am humbled by the people that listen to our show.
And quite honestly, it scares me at the same time.
Well actually Latin or managed to correct us properly. But it
scares me that
these smart people are listening to the show. Are they really
that smart?
Well, they liked the entertainment value of the show.
I think
they liked the body bomb stories. That's where they're
tuning in.
Hey man, let me hear that one again. That was good.
So talking about news media being Have based on stuff so I'm
watching the the follow up press conference on the Murdoch
hearings in London Yeah. And they had this one woman
should I shall I play the verdict? I have the verdict clip
and then you can do the
verdict clip and then we'll lace up from Louise
here is the verdict,
the view of the majority of committee members, Rupert
Murdoch is not fit to run an international company like B sky
b. I'm personally disappointed that some members didn't feel
sufficiently convinced or confident to hold the most
powerful to account. They felt they couldn't support sections
216 to two to nine of the report.
I'd like to point out before you continue that in the UK if you
say someone is fit, that usually means they're hot looking. And
we that I agree Rupert Murdoch is not a good looking guy. He is
not fit at all.
So so this guy picked up what you just play got picked up by
the national media, oh Murdock, Murdock Murdock, he's not fit.
He's not fit, he's not fit. And so Louise mench, who is the
blonde on the committee that you've commented on before she's
not very hot. Now she's not unattractive. But she's, she's a
bit conservative. And she explains this and I've never
heard this before. And the rationale for why she she's one
of the people that voted against the the the final conclusion
because of the Murdoch thing. And she explains it here.
It's even in a report as partisan and down political
lines as this one was voted on. No member of the committee could
find it in their hearts to say that either James or Rupert
Murdoch had misled the committee. Nobody, even in the
reporters published. Therefore, it did appear to us that
something negative had to be found to say about Rupert
Murdoch, since nobody was going to conclude that either he or
his son had misled our committee. And therefore this
line about Rupert Murdoch not being a fit person, which echoes
of combs fit and proper test was stuck in on the basis of no
evidence presented to the committee whatsoever. And we
just could not support it. As I say, even though many many votes
went against my point of view on James Murdoch and on the
corporate culture of News Corp, I would definitely have voted
for the report. Had that language not been placed in it.
Oh, interesting.
Yeah, it was just bullcrap. Well, this
is a blackmail scandal. That's what this is. They're
blackmailing Rupert Murdoch. We know that. And I think a lot of
this is coming, of course from the government in the Gitmo
nation East. But I would wager that the Obama administration
wants a Murdoch onboard. And again, you know, I've now
started watching Fox News because they've already CNN is
no good.
It's just they got rid of Apollo tonto, that guy's trouble. Yeah,
no
big trouble. They let them do walk ons now. And I think it's
blackmail. It certainly can be used for blackmail.
Well, there were a couple of interesting other little side
bit. Yeah, good. And I think we'll we'll see how this goes
into with as the election gets closer. But there was also this,
apparently, they're gonna they don't know what to do about
this, because it hasn't come out since the 1950s. Were a bunch of
people, not Murdoch and his son, were accused of misleading
Parliament by essentially lying to these committees. And, and I
thought that was kind of interesting. And they this guy
discusses a little bit in this clip.
The chairman said earlier, the purpose of the motion for the
house will be to decide whether people are guilty of contempt of
Parliament. And we're all agrees on that. And that is the
substance of the report is what we were investigating is the
first time it's been done since the 1950s. And we spent talking
about something which isn't even included in the next steps of
the report, because it is a tangential to it, although
obviously a subject of interest.
I will point out that Mr. Colin miler is the editor of the New
York Daily News. And we have just found that he has misled a
select committee of Parliament, I would hope that a little bit
of attention will be paid to the unanimous findings of the
committee, when named individuals misled parliament.
And furthermore, to answer the very good question posed by Lucy
Manning, which is if somebody comes in front of Parliament and
lies to it, what happens next off with our heads, we don't
necessarily have the procedures in place, and we will therefore
be referring it to Parliament to find out what to do. But serious
conclusions have been drawn about people misleading
parliament on which we're all united. There is a lot in this
report on which the committee completely agrees. And, you
know, that's the shame that we weren't able to agree on the
report itself because of the line about Rupert Murdoch
cut off his ghoulies I tell you, you lie are a lot of men
removing testicles right away. Love it.
They're at their wit's end about what to do about it. They don't
know. Apparently there's no procedure. Nobody ever does
this.
No one ever lies this crazy. How are you lying for the
parliament?
And so the editor of the Daily News is this one of the guys who
was the he was the editor of the news of the World, and he
scampers off the United States as quick as he can they Morton
Zuckerman I guess the guy who was the publisher was always on
the that show with the McLaughlin report. He's thought,
right guy, right. He's the publisher of the New York Daily
News and he hired this guy, fire the other guy, but this guy is
part of some larger scheme is great. And it's just a whole
thing is just just rotten.
Yeah, no wonder I mean, this is I'm feeling good, you know,
because I see real journalism going on. I consider. We may not
be right, but we've got experts we consult experts, you know, we
keep them just as anonymous as real journalists. We read
through stuff you know, we look at stuff we dissect it. This is
journalism, and it's happening. Tn is dead because of the
alternative media. It really is. They just they went way too by
the way, interestingly enough, their profits are huge. CNN
Yeah, they had like 600 million in profit. I don't understand
how that worked. Well
that's what they do you sell out you put that Hollywood HLN
Hollywood Yeah, news. You know, extra extra extra kind of shows
on and you have Piers Morgan doing softball interviews with
everybody can you know if you if the
ratings aren't there where he says I mean, they must be
charging an enormous CPM because their ratings are so poor I
mean, how are they making that much dough? Maybe it's just
payoffs. Oh, John, ah, bend over here comes his time
on chicken
Yes, identified by John C. Dvorak, very early on in the
game the war on chicken continues ladies and gentlemen,
there's a huge war on against chicken. And here is report
number one ranking news
this afternoon a massive fire destroying several barns at a
Weld County poultry farm Skyfox alive over the senior Roghan
were a massive plume of smoke can be seen for miles.
That's right. 500,000 chickens killed in fire. I'm telling you
those PETA people are crazy. And now we have one from NPR which
we have a new jingle for sponsorship underwriting
advertising money. Here's a report from NPR also enemy
combatants in the war on chicken. little knife
Americans are now eating more chicken than beef or pork. And
meeting that demand is an industry that some have dubbed
big chicken Texas is a major player in the industry. And so
now Texas must manage a problem that in other circumstances we
might describe as Fallout or blowback. They failing they're
using actual military war terms in the war on chicken John it's
getting really
make sense he now
remember station K UHF in Houston explains what that
problem is.
Dan Franks has a beautiful view from his home. 40 miles east of
Waco, a pond a pasture wildflowers and full bloom but
just barely visible off in the distance.
We're about a half a mile from the chicken houses
is what Franks calls an agro factory. There's an agriculture
tag refer more than
a million chickens over there in I was in town and everybody was
asking what stinks and how it's a chicken houses. Ah, that's
the problem. And they stink. They think I tell you That's
right ladies and gentlemen. Other episodes. Oh
there you go. Wrapping it up nicely. Yeah, I like the NPR
jingle. That's
pretty cool. But anyway, yeah, like you were doing it with the
thing in Annapolis. Good.
Let's take a little break here.
I'm going to show my school by donating to no agenda. Imagine
all the people who could do that. Oh, yeah, that'd be fun.
Chicken stinks.
Yeah, this chicken stinks. But our donors don't know. And we
have quite a few women that mentioned. We do have a special
Cinco Demayo coming up on Saturday recommending people
donate 5512
Which would be five 512. Tomorrow would be the best day
to do it. It'd be right in the money
but when it's also it's also one day before the demise of Europe.
because we have elections in Greece in France and one other
one I think it's gonna be pre demise going to be a great Cinco
Demayo Yeah,
it is and which is you know, my as I have something going on

You've got karma.
Warren Carroll in Des Moines, Washington, $100 of donations
and thank you for providing such a great show for no upfront
cost. This show has opened my eyes and taught very simple
journalism techniques to see through the media's bullshit.
Yeah, after watching the President's recent Afghanistan
address I for the first time searched for the actual document
and read it some serious economic hits man stuff in it.
Thank you and you're in you can look forward to more donations
from me PSM an officially donating drunk.
And by the way, the document that President Obama signed with
Karzai, that's the guy with a cape in case you didn't know he
was Regal, he's got a cape and that hat and the hat is made out
of lamb fetus skin, no joke, that it means nothing because
Congress has to ratify it as does the Afghanistan tribal
council or whatever. So it's completely meaningless. And it
really says nothing other than that. We'll be at war until for
the next 24 years. Yay.
Pom Pom Michael or miss Michelle not know what do you think
Michelle? Paul Michelle, Baltimore, Maryland guys 7777

Abraham daily Gorham. Maine 5446 first time donor 5446 is a
reference to Toots and the Maytals song. I know I'm not the
first one to donate this amount not sure if this is where I need
to leave my message. Apparently it is been listening since I
first bought a used iPod for 25 bucks in 2008 got into twit
learned about no agenda goes on and on. In the past year I got a
graduate assistant position at my school so now I have some
cash on hand but still remained a douchebag started relisting
though DSC I liked a lot tonight I've been drinking beer with a
local tobacco brewery and he's a longtime douchebag doesn't
deserve any karma. So passing the karma on to Ron Paul. All
right, let's
give it to Ronnie boy.
You've got Karma
What did I know? I just clicked on something and Melody
man I want to send a birthday shout out to Jim man that
considered hubby who turned me on to this show way back when
you thought you had fewer than 15 Female listeners. But what to
get the man who has everything? Oh, good question. Why? Because
the continuation of the best podcast in the universe. Of
course. Ladies, aren't you happiest when your man is happy?
The formula is this. He supports the show. He's entertained and
educated on his long commute. So he's unconcerned by the
lamestream media. He looks cool and collected while everyone
else is freaking out. The boss starts noticing how often he
pegs the global trends. So he gets a promotion with a new
promotion comes a gob of money, so he takes you on vacation. Not
only should you cheer for the cheerleaders support his wish to
donate, you should tell him it's his duty to the well being of
his Sweetie Pie.
That's one of the best sales pitches I've ever we're gonna
put that sales pitch in the newsletter. That's a good one is
a good one. Just send it out to the ladies. All the ladies and
by the way, we got an email from Sarah, who was a producer on
episode 333. Yeah, with a picture you saw the picture
didn't show Yeah, yeah. Sarah Oh, hotness.
She was showing off. She's hot. was a super smoker. Yeah, she's

Jeffery Anderson in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. 5115 says the last
show was great it and did not suck. You guys always do a great
job no matter what the donation show. I'm giving value for value
to a palindromic tune. 50 115 I was greedy and selfish and
asking to get laid karma. I'd rather do this and I'd rather
ask for regular karma to meet a nice girl worthy of marrying.

Streamwood Illinois if you want to one last few shows you
mentioned donations are down a run a very lengthy and detailed
scientific analysis. I think my algorithm is did find the cause
of this anomaly. Oh, donations equals down. Why? Because two
words slide was as a longtime listener, I've always cringed
when I heard in recent months it's always been more like the
John C. Dvorak slide was will show the no agenda and now
there's two. As an experiment, go two weeks with no slide was
live suspicion don't issues will go up inversely with decreased
slide whistle. I suspect the only people that liked this
slide was sort of the same people that purchase Zahm fear
see Georgeson fear 3am infomercials?
What do you say? Do you think we can abstain for for two weeks?
I'll think about it. I think it's adds a dimension to the
show that no other show has. I grow anyway, we have a number of
$50 donations including Alan Levine for congress.com which is
a l l a n le ve and we want him in I'm confused.
It keeps sending us notes that is not working. It was donating
that the his donations to the show or not creating karma or
whatever for him. He said you can keep sending you long notes.
You read the notes. Send me
some karma right now.
Yeah. All right. Go and vote for this guy. Sounds good. You've
got
to be in Georgia. I don't know how many listeners we have in

to I'm going to create this won't happen right away but I'm
going to create a like just people donate a different
amounts will have like two donation, special voting
donations, where people will will vote with their with their
money, literally. And so as they vote, if they select one, it'd
be similar amounts like a small amount, just don't count votes,
small amount and then they'll be like six and five or 10 and 11,
something like that. And then we'll add the votes up after
like a month of this and then we'll decide that we'll kill the
slide whistle if and know you know, you can vote as many times
as you want. But we will notice this if it's all the one same
guy, you know, then we'll think twice about it.
Wow, John, what a spectacular promotion. Yeah, yeah. Great.
Dude, says Richard Terry. dry firing a gun can damage it.
And you a lot of people say that this lot. That's it's
controversial, as does it really?
He says just because it's rare to break doesn't mean it won't.
Where I used to sell guns, we would refuse to even show
someone a firearm if they drive fire without a snap cap. Plus,
it's bad safety practice. I know too many people accidentally
shot someone while thinking was unloaded. Well, that's a
problem. That's true. That's true. That's true. All right.
Well, thank you all very much because of our Cinco Demayo
celebrations rather long but there's plenty more value for
value. We're all that came from and I do have a very quick 2009
update. We seem to have a little problem. Brandon, who I'm hoping
can become Baron Vaughn Brandon of the great state of Texas is
concerned that Mustang Sally won't be able to pull his
trailer
Yes, a lot of people have this and look did you look it up?
It's in the book.
Well, here's the problem because yeah, I have the Dodge Ram 1500
But it's the big block and all the specs that I see everywhere
that has it with the smaller block and I think that why
anyway we're gonna test it out when he comes back.
But he says tested what testing is we're doing a flat areas of
Texas and
rocky we have a hill here quite a hill. Oh, you
have a hill quite a hill. Yes.
He says ideally, is that a Dodge? 2500 3500 Ford F 250 F
350 I mean don't have any of this I got the the 1500 sport
which is has the shortbed has backseat so it has the dual now
the the dual cab but it has the big block but people say now you
can burn out your transmission your brakes. I'm I'm getting
worried about this.
Yeah, it's got nothing to do with the engine if the
transmission can't deal with it.
How do I know if the transmission can deal with it?
Well, you could always just do it to find out the thing and
then you have to get a new transmission apparently we're
going to find it's gotta be some documentation on this. I'm not
buying the fact that there's no documentation no consists say
yes, you can pull that trailer. Well, there's
numbers and the numbers say that even a 1500 smallblock should
technically be able to pull it but not you wouldn't go up the
hill. We're gonna go through the Rockies now. By the way,
mickey@curry.com is the email address, you can email me as

congratulations, all of you have contributed to the no agenda

are black knights. Very proud to have you here as supporting our
program and I hereby pronounce these millions sir us luck, sir.
Sir Sam and Sir Greg knight to the no agenda roundtable hookers

That's a pretty good group.
That's a great group, good people to all good people.
Really, really good. Thank you all so much. It's encouraging.
It helps us continue doing what we do. And it's quite a bit of
work. And there's actually a lot more work where we've done.
We've done a lot already. Let's see what I
do have a fun clip. Oh, I like okay, I got some the long clip.
You can cut it into here and there, but it's just probably
worth listening to most of it. Okay, this is a clip. I love a
little background. John Walker is a very interesting person.
He's whiskey, John, no, this is the John Walker that founded
Autodesk.
What is what is that a CAD system?
Yeah, it is the CAD system. Okay, computer aided design,
he's worth I estimate is worth at about 300 million maybe.
Okay. And on either side of it. And he renounced his US
citizenship some years ago, and kind of shook his fist at the
country and left and moved to Switzerland, right? In some
place in Switzerland, and he's money as he's a very
conservative investor. And his money is managed by Goldman
Sachs, who and so and by the way to say when he left the country
he had he apparently did a bumper sticker of it. I've never
verified this with him. I've only communicated with him a few
times. That said, we went Russia, just communist Russia
fell. It was like he said, the evil one evil empire down one to
go. Okay, Russian flag, an American flag. So he's got the
issues with the American government. So he had a meeting
with Goldman Sachs that he recorded and then published on
his website. Oh, which is called for me Labs is like Fermilab is
only spell f o u r m i l. a b s.ch. And he has all kinds of
crazy stuff on that that website that's very entertaining and
very interesting. And he's likes to write book reviews. And he's
got some that's what rich guys
do. Or, or really poor guys like us who had nothing better to do?
Yeah, well, he's he's got more time on his hand, maybe whatever
the case is. He apparently had been doing business with Goldman
Sachs since 86. And he was irked with them, because they started
soliciting him because he has no he doesn't he all he investors
is uses for Swiss francs and he invests in sovereign debt of the
most secure countries of the world like Greece. All he wants
to do. He has a goal.
Sorry, like Greece and Spain and
that his hope no and anything but his goal is to not lose a
nickel. He says he's got plenty of money he doesn't want he just
he feels a lot of people invest they make a bunch of money then
they blow it. And so his approach is just the opposite.
So the Goldman Sachs guys keep kept firing his his broker, you
know, his various brokers, they we they have a broker for you,
they fire him. Because of it. The brokers got back to Walker
that they were firing him because they weren't selling him
this junk.
They weren't gouging him
enough. They weren't gouging him enough, right? So they, they
reorg, the whole Goldman Sachs Swiss operation and brought into
its I can't describe him as anything other than a douchebag.
The guy shows up at Walker's house with his assistant. And
they tried to sell him on different things and try to make
make him feel better, because I guess he was going to walk with
his funds, or how many millions he's got with him. I don't know.
He was just going to leave them to tell Goldman this screw it.
And by the way, and he mentioned in his blog that two weeks after
this, this interview, which this just conversation, which was
recorded with their knowledge, because it recorded was right in
the middle of the table. He quit them anyway, because he just was
not convinced these guys were in looking up. They wouldn't talk
follow his simple instructions. But I only took a small snippet.
But but you can imagine this went on for this as an hour. But
I will post it on the website. Eventually I'll put on my blog.
But this is a small snippet that is hilarious, incorrect.
And he has been that you have received from people that have
you know, ulterior motives. Yes. And they have decided to
progress their career in their in their in their, we decided
that
the guy uses this term that says the guy from Goldman Sachs, the
fired guys were progressing their career. I've never heard
this term before. So no, no, he decided to progress his career
or we've decided to progress his career.
I like fired. I've been career progress many times.
I'll bet one of the reasons why we have decided that they should
put their career somewhere else is because they were telling
things like that to
say so it is not true that you have given call sheets for
specific products to your customer representatives in
which they have to confirm that they called and pitch that
product to their client. That's not never happened to me. I've
been here for but that's not the question Is it? Does that
happen?
It does happen that we have product launches that we have
and that we identify clients that might be interested in this
product. And that part of the responsibility of the sales
forces, where applicable, and we're suitable and where
appropriate to contact clients to market those products.
Absolutely. But in situations where we have a discretionary
relationship, and we're especially where we're
guidelines or restriction from clients in doing something that
is completely different, that has nothing to do with so
so why why why is it then that when I have a discretionary
agreement, which is strictly limited in its guidelines, I
received by email, a pitch for the Facebook deal, which said
that if I disclosed it, I would be subject to criminal penalties
in the United States of America. That's the most outrageous thing
I have ever received in my entire life. I would have sent
it to the Financial Times and like except I went to their
website, and it was already there. That was an outrage.
Well, why did I receive that?
I've been in this meeting. Oops, well,
you know, the fact that
no, I don't know, I asked you, why don't I receive the
question. This is obviously a deal that we have facilitated in
a deal that we have promoted to some of our clients, right. It
is part of the discretion of our investment professional to
present and propose investment opportunities to clients. Right.
And you know, one of the things that we asked our investment
professionals to exercise the judgment is to what clients is
suitable or appropriate to present those type of offers and
to what clients is not appropriate or suitable to
present those offers
both discretion to present that to me after we've had
conversations, and an interval of every six months over a
period of two years, in which he never raised anything like that
to me before, in which I made it perfectly clear that I am the
most risk averse investor you have ever met, that I have no
interest in equities, because a huge amount of my net worth is
still in one NASDAQ stock, the company that I founded. And
suddenly it popped into his head to say, this is the guy I should
pitch the Facebook deal.
I'm actually very familiar with. So let me address that. Sure.
That's absolutely the case. And the reason is that I was part
already at the time of the Facebook offering of possible
for this entity and I can tell you that I didn't list it and I
didn't provide any client list and I did that had any
conversation with suggesting that they should pitch their
product to you. And I can tell you that in in London, they
would not know, frankly, who you are and what your account.
That's even worse, by the way, we don't give a crap who you are
man, we don't know, in London, we don't give a shit about you
information. So it was, I'm quite comfortable in saying that
it was a product or an investment opportunity that we
had, and probably that in understood or, or fully fully
grasp the extent to which you didn't want to be shown up on
investment opportunity like that one. And in any case, this is a
deal that we would have never booked or invested in on a
discretionary basis in in the context of the mandate that you
had given us. So there are clients that appreciate to be
shown opportunities, or shown investment ideas and other
clients that are not been consistent with it.
25 years nothing like that ever happened before.
Right? That was a long clip.
So anyway, the was a long clip. But there's a funny thing, they
start off with their sales for sales or talk about the sales
guy sales guys. And then they change it. They changed the term
to investment professionals, who was progressing his career
professional investment professional has grown anyway
that guy was the whole thing is an hour. And it is just one of
those meetings that you're just a fly on the wall and you just
shake your head the whole time. It's just like these guys are
trying to sell, sell, sell. And he's not he's he's not even
remotely interested in anything they have to sell. So he dumped
him.
Well, this leads me nicely into the next segment, which revolves
around the presidential hopeful Congressman Ron Paul, who now
that new Gingrich is officially out is the the The Contender
against Mitt Romney. And he's been doing some very interesting
appearances of late, which I liked very much. I think it's an
interesting strategy. First, it was CNBC. He was on the morning
show was a guest host. And then he appeared on Bloomberg
Television, which again has a rating of asterisk. However, a
lot of people do watch Bloomberg Television who are in the
financial industry and who have access to cash and and could
possibly support him. I kind of like this is surely a duckweed
strategy. Did you see this where it was Paul versus Paul, do you
see this particular item? No, I did not Ron Paul versus Paul
Krugman. Now Paul Krugman is I believe a Nobel Prize winning
economist who writes for The New York Times Correct? Yeah. And I
think the guy always comes across as a dick.
Yeah, he does. And
so there was this teta talent he didn't
even win a Nobel he won a Pulitzer doing this Kookmin I
thought he and I'm pretty sure Richard Paul crew let me look
him up we we have to be accurate.
We do it in real time. Everybody. We consult the book
of knowledge.
Near he is now
Nobel Nobel Prize winning economist from not mistaken
like Princeton. Yep, yep, informally that oh, he won the
disparages, reached by Prize in Economic Sciences informally the
Nobel Prize.
Okay, so his credentials are even kind of lame out. But he
always comes across as a dick. I can't help but yeah, he writes
stuff. You know, I don't know.
He looks like a douche bag. does. So bag beard.
So he's actually in studio, which always gives the upper
hand for someone. Yeah,
you're in the studio, you got the upper hand.
But this was a very interesting exchange. I've cut it down into
two pieces. And I will and I'm going to play this first piece.
And then I'm going to ask you some questions about it. Because
you Of course, I've studied the Austrian economics, which is Ron
Paul subscribes to, and then we will play clip two, as it turns
into a war on history. Well, there's
certain things you know, you can't lead the government out of
monetary policy. If you try to think, you know, we're gonna
just let it set itself doesn't happen. The government is
actually always that the Federal Reserve, the central bank is
always going to be in the business of managing monetary
policy, if you think that that you can avoid that. You're
living in some you're living in the world as it was 150 years
ago, right? We have an economy in which money is not just green
pieces of paper, with with faces of dead presidents on the money
is is, is the result of the financial system and includes a
variety of assets. We're not even quite sure where the line
between money and non money is. It's kind of a continuum. And,
look, history tells us that in fact, an on completely unmanaged
economy is subject to extreme volatility subjected to extreme
downturns. I know there's this legend that people like that
probably you Congressman have that the Great Depression was
somehow caused by the government caused by the Federal Reserve,
but it's not Truth. The reality is that was a market economy run
amok, which happens happened repeatedly over over the past
couple of centuries. You do need, you know I am so I'm a
believer in the market economy. I'm a believer in capitalism, I
want the market economy to be left as free as it can be. But
there are limits, you do need the government to step in to
stabilize depressions are a bad thing for capitalism. And it's
the role of the government to make sure that they don't
happen, or if they do happen that they don't last too long.
So here, Paul Krugman, the fake Nobel Prize winner,
well, we have to remember right off the bat, he he brings in a
piece of questionable information that that ruins the
premise of whatever he's gonna say, from then on. He says, The
Great Depression, the Great Depression happened during the
reign of the Federal Reserve, which is supposed to control
things to the point where you don't have a Great Depression.
So it via you so as logic is already askew? Because of you
know, the Federal Reserve is in full force during the Great
Depression. Oh, yeah, they weren't good, then they weren't
doing anything to stop the Great Depression. Now they would. So
well, that's arguable. I think it's a cycle. So nobody
triggered it. But that's an that's another debate. So he
immediately is dealing with a false premise. And so the whole
thing for me, at least right now is completely off the tracks and
right at the bat,
and he goes on to do two things. First, he says this is the role
of government, which I have not read in the Constitution. It's
not supposed to be the role of our government. Would you agree?
Yeah, I
agree with that. And you?
And the second thing, which was annoying to me, is he pulls out
a meme, which has been used consistently against the
congressman, the next President of the United States. He says,
You want to take us back 100 and 150 years, you want to turn back
the clock You're living 100 years ago, douche? This is
something that I've heard over and over again, correct?
Yeah. And he said, 150, which is funny, since the Federal Reserve
has only 100. Yeah, yes. Not even 100 years old.
But he does it for a fact. He's like, it's a meme. And they've
been using it over and over again. Ron Paul, however, was
prepared for this. Oh, yeah. I'll take your 100. And I'll do
it times 10, bitch.
And it really destroys an important feature of the
economy. And that is saving savings tells us something and
it tells us if capital is available, this notion that
capital can come out of the expansion of the money supply is
remote. Now, Professor Krugman indicates that we just want to
go back 200 years or so that is not exactly true. We'd like to
improve on what was like back then. But he wants to go back
1000 years or 2000 years, just as the Romans and the Greeks and
all other countries debase their currency, they didn't have a
computer, this idea that we need a Federal Reserve to run things
well, federal, or a central bank. That's just a modern era.
Never is,
can you clarify? What do you mean by go back? 1000 years, is
that fair could clarify. What did the Romans do to their
currency? The Byzantine Empire had a gold standard for 1000
years, and they did quite well. They didn't fight wars. But the
Roman Empire eventually destroyed their currency, they
put them wage and price controls. Before they diluted
the metals. They inflated they thought wealth could come by
fooling the people who would want today, if they had a and if
they had 10 years to send their kid to college, would they put
their money in gold coins, or a treasury bill making one or 2%?
Take that you've silly as fake Nobel, Nobel economist that take
your 100 years and make it 1000 years? I think I really liked
that. I thought that was a very good point.
Yeah, it was good. It was 40 people yourself included that
watched it were probably impressed.
And your Krugman retort was
no, he I know what it was. It was like, No, I'm not sorry, you
or something like that
very close to keep up with the inflation or the devaluation of
the currency. There would be nothing there. Dearborn.
I am not a defender of the economic policies of the Emperor
Diocletian. So Diocletian get out there and Obama's behind
they should be playing that at rallies for Ron Paul. Really,
really should
know that was lame that oh, you know, he knew that Diocletian?
Really bad.
Yeah, cuz he's a douche.
I mean, he must have just said whatever.
Yeah, I'm just saying dude. Hey, Ron, I'm just saying whatever,
whatever.
Alright, two more little duties of God, we have to go a little
bit longer just a little bit because of the amount of
donations or at least until we're tired of each other, which
is that moment is coming happened. So a lot of technical
experts have going on and give them a nation East in the United
Kingdom, as the Pirate Bay has now officially been blocked, or
there is now a law that says ISPs, internet service providers
can no longer allow access to the Pirate Bay, which of course
is laughable. Like this is going to stop anything. And Virgin
Media. Of course, Richard Branson little slot that he is
right on board are the first ones to block it. And there was
an interesting conversation on the today's show. The day to day
program, I should say in in get my nation east. Let me just see,
because they had on the guy who's in charge of the what do
you call it the the ISP Alliance or whatever. And they had the
Member of Parliament, the woman on I can't find her name right
now. Who, you know, essentially says we've got to block
everything. And we've got to stop all this. So it's about the
Pirate Bay. Right? It's about the Pirate Bay. But what is the
conversation turned to within 30 seconds? Can you guess? No, no,
yes, you
can lose a bit as if you're ducking your responsibility
here, if you know, and everybody does know that certain websites
offer something illegal? Why do you not simply block that? So
why do you need a court to tell you to do that?
Well, content is is there's a variety of contents on the
internet. So there's, there's music, there's films of millions
of websites, and it's not for the ISPs to be the police of all
that
caught on? Why not? I mean, you are making it possible for them
to do something illegal, whether we're talking about films or
music, or indeed pornography, pornography, oh, why should you
not there it is put in place restrictions on this this
guy.
He's the host of today program. But he doesn't stop. It's now
it's all about porn
of your own volition.
We've worked in lots of places, if you look at what the internet
industry has done over many, many years to protect children
online, a lot of work being done in setting up the Internet Watch
Foundation. And that's to do with material that is child
abuse material and clearly breaks the law and
any child can access pornography tomorrow or today in the next 10
minutes at the drop of a hat they know exactly what to do and
how to do it. If they can get it because you haven't blocked it,
you haven't made it impossible for them to get it. The children
find it final thoughts. So I've run out. Do you accept the whole
that the internet is changing?
It's of course it's changing, and it will continue to change.
And that's why the ISPs are being very receptive to having
these conversations about what is the best way of dealing to
protect children, but at the same time to allow people to see
content that they want to see that does not break the law. We
also have to make sure that
I think the time is coming when the internet should not be
treated differently from any other form of media. We don't
accept it with any other media with Telly or mobile phones or
anything else. Why should the internet be different?
Though the guy should go on and say look, here's the problem.
You know, yeah, your company can block whatever it wants. I'm
like the guy who sells ink to the printers. I got nothing to
do with what they print with it.
But it's even worse. The Member of Parliament said we need to
treat it like any other media.
Like I said, but the ISP is not the it's just a neutral. It's
like an ink manufacturer. They got nothing to do with any of
this. No, you get all the content that's flying by. I mean
it's impossible. John, John John John's
got the children.
I didn't know you get it. You used it once. It was beautiful.
Do it
because you're like you're making our point for us again.
We don't have to do that. Of course it's like ink for the
printer. But the douchebags they're considered to be EDS.
But who is this idiot? A member
of parliament? Someone in the chat room on now?
Oh, it's horrible people. Yeah, once you give them a douche bag.
Back now, you want to hear some real douchebaggery having to
entire months go by that I don't think of flipping to MTV. For
good reason. Because I'm from Jersey and Jersey Shore does not
represent but there's a there's a program on. I don't know if
this was if they do this on television or if they only do it
On the website is called MTBS rap fix rap, fix the rap fix it,
fix it. And on this program they had Killer Mike and prodigy from
Mobb Deep. You know those guys, right? Oh yeah, you're rocking
their tunes. And the most insanely interesting
conversation about Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman and
we just got to listen to this because there are two points of
view here. But the things that are being said are mind
boggling.
I mean, it's definitely a murder you know, I mean that to just
right off the bat I definitely murder and you know, that dude,
had Zimmerman doe definitely murder him
and cold blooded cold blow he was out there taking whatever
and his mind that who knows who's going through his mind he
was doing out there to to Zimmerman,
those Zimmerman ADA do Zimmerman who by the way that's racial at
this point. You don't say dude to black people do you now
that's a white guy thing you dude. Dude Zimmerman this is
this is so wrong this is being fed to our children all the
way he thought he was doing you know, I mean, but no, I mean, he
murdered that kid for no reason like
that because you know we had the court murder kid for no reason
you know, I
mean, no man and to me it's it's up to the police department out
there and safe to handle that the right way they were supposed
to arrest him. You know, I mean, because that's the law of
Florida is you know, it's self defense law in Florida but you
got to prove it was self defense in court. You can't just tell
the police Oh self defense and then you walk away down and
rescue they supposed to arrest you. And it's a trial and you
have to prove it was self defense the burden of proof is
on is on the person that's claiming self defense
this is now the burden of proof is on the on the on the charged
this is being fed to our children John, through popular
rap music, the bad old rap music and it gets better.
I mean, doesn't that you know I don't know law under study law.
So
here's Killer Mike Killer Mike is better.
I like No, it's not like going to South Georgia has the same
law is one committee that writes these laws B. And what they do
is they target states with a gun lobbyists strong and they know
they can get it passed in Georgia. If you make me feel
threatened, I can legally kill you. The problem is these idiots
who we have supposedly leaders of the black community, they
tell you to do harm yourself when you should be arming
yourself. You live below the Mason Dixon Line. Gun laws allow
you to arm yourself, you should be all you know, I mean, because
you we live in a state where we are hunted. God.
We live in a state in Georgia where we are hunted.
Really just hunted. Game the state of Georgia has been hunted
constantly.
I do agree though. You said yeah. You should definitely be
armed. Absolutely. That'll even everything out. There's like
Texas, everyone's armed. Everyone's polite. There's no no
problem going on. This is this is this is being broadcast to
children.
No. Oh, John, you're we're this is doomed. We're all we're doing
is we're painting the End of Times on the show.
Painting the end of times. Well, if you're in Boston. Next time
you take the subway, the metro, you know, Department of Homeland
Security is planning on doing
in Boston at the Metro. Yeah. What the Department of
Homeland Security has installed sensors in the MBTA system to
detect biological agents. And they've been testing to see how
the air moves. Now they want to release particles in the tunnels
to see how well the sensors work. I wonder why
they have to like testing live like this. I don't know I can
they test it somewhere else. Not where there's actually people
around. Federal
officials tell us they plan to test the subway sensors by
releasing a bacteria that they say is used in food supplements.
They say it's been rigorously tested and has no adverse health
effects for low exposure with Healthy People.
Is there any risk for us? You know, they say for healthy
people? What
if who are the majority of the riders on the subway too, so I'm
I'm so so
I'm not too too worried about the tests because they have
really rigorous hoops to jump through. And I think I would
trust those hoops. Personally, trust the hoops.
Federal officials tell me that they plan to release this
bacteria during off peak hours. Probably overnight. You know,
they are inviting the public to give input. This is required by
law. They've also set up a hearing so that people can come
and ask questions and voice their opinions that will be here
in Cambridge on May 16. And for more information on all of this,
you can log on to our website. Yeah,
here's my input. But don't do it. This is a very bad idea.
This has been done before this was done in the I think the 50s
Maybe in different parts of the country they they're always
testing your drawing and then people get sick because there's
a bunch of people are allergic to some of these. Shall I tell
you not to be a fiasco? I'll tell you what the bacteria is. I
was what I'm looking for it now what is it B subtilis.
As in bacillus subtilis, also known as the Hey bacillus or
grass bacillus, a gram positive catalase positive bacteria
commonly found in soil. Unlike several other well known
species, B subtilis, has historically been classified as
an obligate Arab. And apparently it will kill old people.
Well, maybe that's what they're trying to do. Well, usually this
is a cover up for just killing some of the old people in
Boston. They're annoying.
Well, the thing is, it stays around it reproduces for
decades, it doesn't go away.
Oh, yeah. The whole subway system was stink, doesn't have a
smell. I'm sure I've just started reproducing and ended up
kind of Mal forming into some sort of, and it rots when it
dies. Like anything else a dead bacteria smell.
It can remain viable for decades and is resistant to unfavorable
environmental conditions.
But that one woman she has Oh, we can trust them. This is like
that bonehead I had on the clip show but we hadn't before. It's
just with the list this kid Oh, you know, what else can we do?
Let him do the test us let him strip us at the at the airports
and I'm X ray us and so you guys better be safe than sorry, these
kinds of people.
Well, this also is a potential for a false flag. This happens
very often when you know there's a test and we'll I will set up a
drill and then all of a sudden, oh, it's real. So we'll put a
real some real bad crap down there. That is possible. Donald
what's going to happen but it's possible. However, I will we
really need to be freaked out about is that the h five in one
paper is going to be published. In fact, the headline from time
another compromised news source says h five n one paper
published deadly transmissible bird flu could be closer than
thought. This is a this is the scientist one from University of
Wisconsin and the Dutch scientist from Erasmus
University in Rotterdam. They're going to publish the paper on
how to make the bird flu swine flu combo.
Yeah, so we can kill everyone. Yeah.
So look for a lot of stories about dying of bird flu and
probably ramping up some vaccines or something or doing
something nice about that. What's interesting, and I'm
following this not for this show. But the way that medical
the medical journal system is ft. Do you know anything about
this? How Elsevier who publishes these, they charge universities
for the publishing?
Yeah. And then you had to get a subscription which cost a
fortune. You want to watch them subscribe to Nature magazine.
40,000
a year? Yeah, yeah, 40,000 a year, but they charge by each
subscriber. So you pay for your subscription. But if you're if
your paper is published, the first it goes through a peer
review, which is anonymous, so that can be rigged payoffs, etc.
Then they publish it. You as the as the university that publishes
has to pay $30 per recipient of the paper. Wow, it's high. It's
Yeah, it's crazy.
Yeah, there's your CPM? Yeah. It's not a cost per 1000. What's
the cost per 1000? On that multiplied? I have no idea.
$1,000 is your CPM. You
have no idea how many people subscribe, but I was like, Wow,
that's pretty pretty out there.
reading some of the stuff about during a Senate hearing in 1977,
has revealed that the Pentagon had conducted numerous secret
germ attacks on cities without public knowledge in an effort to
test the threat posed by biological agents. In other
words, this is a naming new, these tests may have caused
outbreaks of disease, which occurred in some of the test
areas right. Leonard a coal citing and Senate inquiry since
the 1940s. The military and the CIA have conducted numerous
tests on the American people including the release of dengue
gay fever carrying mosquitoes in Georgia and Florida
route man love it. So here's I don't know if you received this.
I got a lot of these. Apparently, nuclear experts from
the US In Japan, such as Robert Alvarez of the Institute for
Policy Studies have sent an urgent letter to the United
Nations Secretary General Ban Ki Moon who are warning about the
high risk of the Fukushima unit for spent nuclear fuel pool.
That one more earthquake and the whole world is gonna die of
radiation. Yeah,
I saw this
now this is everywhere you can you can just Google like
it's a meme. Right? Well, no, it's a copy paste thing. Well,
it's becoming a meme.
So I consulted our resident nuclear power expert, atomic rod
and he sent me the American Nuclear Society Fukushima
Daiichi ans committee report, and nothing could be further
from the truth, according to the report, and I tend to believe
the report. Here's just two quick notes from it the
same delete the report from a source that we kind of would we
trust as opposed to some hysteric making it up? Well, let
me tell you about the hysteric in a minute first, let me give
you the details. The report then I'll tell you about this guy,
Robert Alvarez because I figured out some stuff about him.
Fukushima Daiichi is a unit for spent fuel pools been carefully
inspected by seismic engineers where necessary structural
reinforcement was added qualified engineers believed the
pool and it supports our sound and would not be affected if an
earthquake the size of the one which was unique, which could
happen in another 1800 years. Unless an earthquake machine is
turned on. Again, the initial event occurred right at the site
of the reactor, so it'd be very interesting if it happened again
at the exact same spot the exact same magnitude and from the
report. In April, a concern developed centered around the
strength of the structure supporting unit for SFP. Between
May 31 And June 20th steel support pillars were installed
to provide protection against damage that might result from
additional seismic events. And from that report, Robert Alvarez
has deemed everything to be so dangerous we're gonna die that
you know, we have this mean to UN Secretary General Ban Ki
Moon. Let me tell you about Robert Alvarez. He was a music
major in college before he dropped out and he is the
resident nuclear expert at the Institute for Policy Studies.
You should take a look at this outfit. It's IPS dash dc.org
huge Harry Belafonte is on the Board of Trustees. But here's
what's interesting.
Well, that's a giveaway.
He was an analyst and so he was he was the the head of the
Department of Energy during the Clinton administration, but was
fired from that job after his teenage daughter turned him in
for growing dozens of pot plants in their basement. More
interesting. He got married in that time that just before he
was appointed the Department of Energy chief. He was married to
an anti nuclear activist lawyer who represented Karen Silkwood
in the famous Silkwood case against Kern McGee. Yeah, this
guy is a total inside douchebag shill and people in your I hear
Alex Jones trying to sell iodine pills this is not going to
happen this is only and by if you look at IPS is a big agenda
21 Corporation I'm looking at it is total ideas into action for
peace justice in the environment sustainability This is a war
against a cheap it could eventually be cheap a cheap
clean fuel and I'm becoming more and more of a nuke guy I have to
say I mean I'm no nuclear scientists I don't see they
mastered and Sir Mark dying or radiation how many people were
killed outside of the explosion there in in Fukushima none not
from no one died from radiation there were a few who could maybe
have 1% More developing cancer in their life sucks
happens where that that report comes from this blog.
It's not a blog is a huge operation John there's not just
a
look, we'll look into this in the days ahead to see what these
people are.
These guys are absolute total douche bags. But beware, you
know because people send me this stuff saying Oh, you're always
we're all gonna die Fukushima No. And the media is not
reporting on it. I'm sorry, I my dish,
disappointed when we when people take us something as
superficial. I mean, we try to make it clear that everything is
bullcrap. Until you look into it. And so but then they would
take some rumor floating around from this maniac you know this
this it literally hysteric and then they would pass it on to us
as if there is some scandal going on. Yeah, the scandal is
that you've been suckered into into you know, you've been hook
line and sinker word yourself listener. And you should rethink
you know what, how you're approaching these these
information items. You're approaching them wrong too,
because now there was once we go away, you're, you're doomed.
And it works the other way too. This is another one that I got
going exactly the opposite direction headline. Wind farms
can claws can cause climate change finds new study. Isn't
this great? Everyone's like, hey, look, wind farms grants
climate change. Again, you've been duped. So everyone copy
paste this headline. And so that was the Telegraph in the UK.
Here is Earth sky.org node. So this is all people, anti nuclear
and wind. And it says, you know how you can use a ceiling fan to
pull warm air down from the top of a room in winter, which by
the way, I'm a pilot, I've flown you know, for every 1000 feet,
it's two degrees colder. So I don't know what you're talking
about. NASA announced on April 29. Wind farms in Texas might be
doing something similar. They appear to be acting as fans to
pull warmer air close to the Earth's surface at night result.
According to the study of satellite data, whose results
were released yesterday, an area of West Central Texas covered by
four large wind farms warmed to a rate of point seven, two
degrees. I was like, Oh, look, look, look, wind is bad. If you
actually look at the report to go in, this is what you need to
do go to nasa.gov Look for the report. And now it's a pain in
the ass, you got to use their search or maybe Google won't
find it. Because everyone's you know, the only thing that's out
there is this little caveat in the report, the warming estimate
applies specifically to this particular region, and covers a
time when wind farms were expanding rapidly. This estimate
should not be considered directly applicable for other
landscapes and regions, nor should it be extrapolated over a
longer period of time as the warming would likely plateau
rather than continue to increase. If no new wind
turbines are added. The warming is also considered a local
effect, not one that will contribute to a larger global
trend. That's the actual report. So you got to be very, very
careful. And I know a lot of blogs out there. And this is I
think why you come to no agenda. There'll be like, hey, look,
when sucks. It might suck, but not because of this study. Not
because of this study. That's the point.
I Like Wind as an alternative source. But you know, having
been in the hall and when areas where they have the big ones
those big monster Yeah, they're huge. Those things make a creepy
noise that just really just drives humans away. And it's
just not a good sound.
Well, if we're fortunate, if we're fortunate enough to build
our container home where we want it here and you I've put in a
low bid because you know, frankly, can I afford? And the
land is owned by a trust, so they don't give a crap. Oh, who
knows that happens. But it borders on a bird Preserve. I'll
bet you 50 bucks right now, because that's all I can I can
muster. That if I put up a windmill, they're gonna they're
gonna force me to take it down because I'm killing birds.
Yeah, chili, which, by the way, when I was in Holland, where
they have these big monsters, and we went to the giant wind
farms. I never saw one dead bird. I mean, you think you'd be
a dead bird? Down at the bottom? Don't you think? Down at the
bottom of the base where you're a couple of dead dead birds. The
dead birds. I was expecting to see piles of pelicans,
piles of pelicans you've created so many amazing show titles this
this time around John is really good. All right, so
wait before we go out are starting to wrap Yeah, we gotta
mention something I keep forgetting to mention that and
unfortunately so late in the show of me had to do it again to
the artists do not give us art that has the two of us in the
art we did that for a whole year the early days of the art for
the for the album covers and we we stopped it you if you haven't
noticed we haven't been a picture of Adam and myself in
the on the album cover for two two and a half years. So
I don't know about one might have crept in jacket one Okay,
me Sure. I
don't remember one recently. But whatever the case is, stop doing
that and give us you know, clever art that is you know,
relates to the show or some pawn or something. I mean, Nick Darat
is a good guy to take a look at his stuff because he does you
know, generally speaking quite amusing pieces that are all
thorough and is also quite good recently. Anyway, so finally,
there's one meme going around that I want to mention, which
was I couldn't figure out where this mean was come meme was
coming from and people kept bringing it up. And apparently
it comes from Morgan Stanley, I believe, and who I didn't
realize this, but it's explained in this little clip, which is
Morgan Stanley has been following Congress, I guess,
since I don't know the 1800s. In terms of how people are voting,
because this meme has come up with, oh, we haven't had this
kind of a Congress since 1870. And I say, man who's making this
stuff up is actually a fact play this
political problem, but the political problems are very
dominating, that as a result of the last four years, our
politics have actually become more polarized, less
communication, less ability to work across party lines, than it
was in in 2007 2008,
actually, than it was in 1870. We do this count of the party
line votes in the House and Senate. And we are as polarized
in our history as from ethics 1870 Onward in the house, rather
than the Senate and just at the previous peak, which was arguing
about reconstruction.
So I just find it to be a curious factor. They actually
have been Morgan Stanley, the big investment house has
actually been monitoring this for some investment purposes,
obviously. And it's true we haven't had a congress this bad
since 1870. That's it.
That's your encore. That's your goodbye swan song. That's how we
leave everybody with that.
I thought it was uplifting. Okay, you finished in sigh a
teenage girls. Sigh.
I bought the Samsung Galaxy Note. Oh, why?
Why? You're an IFP pad guy.
Oh, I had no no, no, I haven't used the iPad other than for
jingles. And I haven't used the iPhone for ever since you gave
me that Google phone. I've been using that one. And that was
just, it was just becoming too slow. It was a very good phone.
It's just becoming too slow.
So you got to fight that kind of that mid size thing that Samsung
has a big phone. It's outstanding. That you and Leo.
I know. Yeah. Apparently Leo likes it too. Yeah. It's an
outstanding device. And I don't I don't need it's very fast. I
don't think I need any tablet. Right? This it's a perfect size.
I mean, I have big hands. So that works. It is it's huge. And
you put it up to your head and you know, people
like whoa, what's wrong with this?
I don't make any phone calls. No, you don't call me no one
calls me. And so that's that's an uplift. So you like
that thing?
I have no, I love it. I don't like it. I love it.
That's a head shaker for me because I've played with it. And
I I mean, I I don't see anything wrong with the Nexus S the one
that you now think is too slow or whatever. And too small. I
like the size, it's light, you can put it in a shirt pocket
doesn't make your shirt but
saying you only actually use it to make phone calls. I mean, I
use my phone. Continue. I mean throughout the entire day. I'm
on my phone all the time to collect stories from no agenda,
news network.com You know that I can't have the little teeny
keyboards or make making me mad. So now I have a much bigger
keyboard, keyboard virtual but it's much bigger keyboard. And
much more screaming I'm old now. I'm going to be 48 in September,
so I have a harder time seeing. It's relaxing my shoulders and
not scrunched up all that much. It's very, very good. You should
give it a try. You really should and the LTE by the way that
might save our ass one day, I get 20 megabits down on that
phone. five megabits up.
Don't you get kept like right away. I haven't
had long enough to know. I have unlimited bandwidth. Whatever
that means.
Well, I played with the phone Leo's and I do have a gag for
people. I just played it on him and he managed to get out of it
go on when you borrow somebody's phone lock is taken. Now you
boy, you could do that. But ne better you'd go on you go to the
language and change the language to Greek.
Because it's very hard to figure out what buttons to push to get
it back, right?
Yeah, yeah. And everything's in Greek.
This is why I don't invite you over to the house.
Probably Probably one of the reasons you do this nasty
crap like that.
Alright, it's a great gag.
Hilarious. Anyway, that's an uplifting and uplifting way to
get out. And a reminder, timesheets are due next Tuesday.
