Invidious Phobias

00:00 Will it cook the gophers? Boxing Day and broadcasting live from Opportunity Zone 33 here in the frontier of Austin, Texas, capital of the drone star state. In the morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Valley where we're expecting a big match on today's Boxing Day. Who's fighting anyway? I'm John C. D'Avora. What match? Oh, I get it. Boxing Day. Okay. Duh. Took me a second. Did you realize that until just about five or six years ago, that's what I thought it was about? I never got it. That's not true because we've been doing this show since I lived in the UK and you knew exactly what Boxing Day was. I don't. But then it was just before then. Okay. Well, I'm glad you're up to speed on that.

00:58 Yes, it's Boxing Day. Why is it called Boxing Day? Because they put stuff in boxes. Yeah, you give each other boxes. Why go and alienate our UK producers? Well, they picked up on Boxing Day in Canada. They used their Boxing Day up there. Now we're thinking about it. People talk about it. I bet it's gonna be a millennial thing, Boxing Day. You watch. You can just put money on it. I always thought, you know, when I think originally I thought it was some Australian thing because that's what was in the UK and had to do with kangaroos. Boxing. I always visualized a couple kangaroos with boxing gloves on. Okay. On Boxing Day. Well, I'm glad that you've been put straight.

01:48 But again, I think it's a fine millennial trait. That's how it'll be brought in. Boxing day. Oh yes, we have Friendsgiving and Boxing Day. We don't celebrate Christmas, we celebrate Boxing Day. Don't you see? It's headed that way. Celebrate Boxing Day. We celebrate Boxing Day. Christmas is pre-Boxing Day. I wrote down a couple of millennial things for you while I was traveling. Just two. Two important ones. Can I get the book out? Yeah, now is this going to be a published list or what is it going to be? Yeah, published on Twitter. Wow, that guarantees no one will read it. Okay, so maybe I'll put a web page up. I'll put up a WordPress page. So I just have two, but I think they're important. By the way, we're getting a lot of these and a lot of people, most of the ones that, which is kind of along your lines of thinking, most of the ones I've been getting are

02:45 What do you call it? It's the way people act. It's as opposed to like things like mine is like things Okay, craft beer and dr. Bronner Most people are mostly about how people act okay, so Gender reveal parties is a thing. It's not it's an act and it's a thing. Oh Yeah. So I think you should put that on. But I have one that I've been noticing more often and it is an act, but it's a thing. By the way, by the way, I think the gender reveal party where the woman pooped out or farted out a big blue cloud, I think that should have killed it. Gee, I must have missed that viral video. Make sure you tag me in it next time it comes around. I have not seen that one.

03:41 Ah, it's gross. Here's something that I'm seeing very frequently and it's just wrong and I'm not sure why it's happening or it must be a lack of education. You see this in emails, you see it in tweets, you see it in text messages, putting the dollar sign after the amount instead of in front of the amount. Hello? Yeah, I'm writing it down, sorry. You never know, you might have fallen over backwards from this revelation.

04:18 I've never seen this. So instead of dollar sign like 50 for $50 it'll be 50 and then dollar sign. Oh that's because it makes more sense you think about you say $50 so you'd be $50 as opposed to in the old way which is putting a dollar sign and then 50 you say $50 but it's out of order if you think about it. Yes I understand but it's it's not common and I've seen this a lot. Another thing I see a lot... otherwise it says like I'm reading it says like dollars fifty. Another thing is, did we talk about this, people driving without their headlights?

04:58 This is happening with increasing frequency. That's smart. Increasing frequency. It's because they don't know. I think because everyone's used to automatic headlights that are just on, then I've been driving a lot at dusk for some reason or maybe just getting darker earlier here in Austin and I just, it must be every time I go three, four cars driving with no lights on and they don't even know it obviously. Well I don't know if you, oh well that's not, It's an automation thing. I think most millennial things on this list should be overt, not just dumb shit these guys fell into. Well, anyway. You know, a lot of millennials have fallen into holes. Listen, I feel the plight of the millennials. They've been slackified. There's a lot going on in their lives. And so we're just making light of a few things. We have nothing against millennials, obviously. Well, I get the list long enough, I'll be able to, when I bring it up at the end,

05:53 at the dinner table. It'll be able to add a few extra items. Alright, now before we do anything else I feel a rain stick is in order for Australia. Sir Chris Wilson's down there. He actually requested it. They're burning up so they need some rain stick action. We haven't done it in quite a while. All right. I think this is for New South Wales. Everybody other than Australia, especially Becky, should turn off their speakers for the next 20 seconds. Yes, because it's going to hurt you real bad and we know that it'll, in about three or four days, it'll be raining cats and dogs in Austin, but that is the plight of the rain stick. So we give two full shakes for New South Wales? Yeah. Okay, here we go. New South Wales. Excellent. Excellent. Excellent. Excellent. All right. Hope it gets better there.

06:46 So I do have some tales of travel since The Keeper and I went to... Yes, tales of travel, one of the highlights of the No Agenda show. Oh sure. Since we went to New York Friday we left, so we had Thursday at the show then Friday. What a dream to travel without the studio for once. Thank you everybody for allowing us To run a special John story time on Sunday, so we did not produce something live on the day itself and thank you David Orcutt of course for producing that our Executive producer for the show which also puts me a bit out of rhythm I don't know if you noticed that this morning, but you know not doing that Sunday show. I was a little off I don't know

07:30 And mainly because they didn't have to do Tuesday's Horowitz either. He's on sabbatical for the next two shows. Okay. So I was just free to lounge around. All right. So we had two TSA experiences and I noticed something right off the bat as we departed from Austin. Now we had a pre-check. I have no reason to have pre-check. I no longer qualify whenever I travel with the keeper who also has no pre-check privileges. We always get pre-check. So that was a breeze. We flew right through, not a problem. And if you go through the pre-check line, it's always noticeable that you can keep your shoes on, you don't have to take your laptop out of your bag, and my boots

08:15 Whenever I go through a non pre-check magnetometer, that's the metal detector, they go off. I mean there's always something in the boots that will go off and they did not go off. So I presume that they've detuned the pre-check magnetometer just you know so that it doesn't respond to for instance stuff in in boots or maybe a bracelet that you may still have on or even a belt. And this was accentuated on the way back, which was a very interesting trip. We flew back on the 24th of the Christmas Eve. JetBlue from JFK. There was a line, there must have been 500 people in the line.

08:57 But it was moving and what we did is we went through that damn dog thing again which I identified on my the trip before last when I came back from from Europe where they send you through the you know the gerbil lines and all of a sudden you come to a little open square space and then you line up two people at a time may not be the person you're traveling with you shut up slave you sit next to him okay and walk when we tell you and then you're supposed to walk slowly across this open square and then they walk the dog around you So they're doing this dog thing again. I have never seen this ever. Second time for me. Second time. Now of course the dog that never looks at me, I don't know what he's looking for. And then we got to the security lines and they had a lot of them open, must have been eight or nine of them, and every single one of them you could keep your shoes on, your laptop could stay in your bag, they had detuned all of them. Nothing went off. Oh they want to move it. Well

09:53 I got a report this morning from a whistleblower at the TSA. More than 40 million US airline passengers are expected to go through airport security checkpoints this holiday. But this TSA security director says you may not be as safe as you think. What they're doing is injecting danger into the system. Jay Brainerd is the top TSA official in his state and has been with the agency for 17 years. He says TSA is cutting corners on the screening process to shorten wait times. One example, TSA reduced the sensitivity on all walk-through metal detectors at airports across America. They are reducing the concentration of metal that it would take to set off that alarm so that you can speed up lines and have fewer pat-downs. How do you know that's why they did it? Because there's a memo out that supports it.

10:42 The TSA memo shows the order came in 2013, quote, changing all walk-through metal detector settings in all lanes to the TSA pre-check setting to normalize the passenger experience. Brainerd says the practice continues today and he worries bomb-making components could go undetected. You could have a 30-minute wait time and they treat it like it's a national emergency. It is such an unhealthy obsession of placing speed over security. Reynard says that obsession also led the TSA to disable technology on x-ray machines that screen carry-on bags in pre-check lanes. This internal memo states as of last month those x-ray machines should be operated without the auto detection algorithm enabled. Why don't they just let us walk through at this point? If you're... Wait a minute! This guy's a dick for revealing that you had a nice experience

11:37 Were any planes blown up? No, no, but... Now the more likely likelihood is that something like this would happen if he hadn't have said anything. The whole report is worth listening to. It's about five minutes. It's in the show notes under shut up slave. You can find it there. Oh yeah, and there's a lot more to... This guy's an a-hole. And by the way, most of those things, yes, yes, you can turn them up and down. It's true. A magnetometer, you can make it more or less sensitive. Generally speaking, they're set to the point where it won't detect a belt buckle. But so what? Yeah, well that's to move people through but it has nothing to do with safety at this point. It's just moving people through. That's the thing they have to do once in a while. Right, but it has nothing to do with safety. This is just the theater part. It's just annoying. Well we know that. I know. There's no reason to talk about it like this. This is ridiculous. I feel like this guy thinks he's doing somebody a favor because he's all in. Oh, terrorists are everywhere. Oh, you gotta bust them on this.

12:37 The creep. Poor guy. He's just trying to do his job. Yeah, he's an idiot. Okay. New York is a... Oh, by the way, before I... Just as a side, since you're talking about that. So I dropped the kids, JC and... I'm sorry, not JC, but Jay and Nick at the airport so they can go up and they're gonna spend... They spent a couple of days with Nick's parents up in Washington. So it was a... People should take notes of this. You should take notes on these things. Monday, they flew out. I drove to the Oakland airport.

11:37 Were any planes blown up? No, no, but... Now the more likely likelihood is that something like this would happen if he hadn't have said anything. The whole report is worth listening to. It's about five minutes. It's in the show notes under shut up slave. You can find it there. Oh yeah, and there's a lot more to... This guy's an a-hole. And by the way, most of those things, yes, yes, you can turn them up and down. It's true. A magnetometer, you can make it more or less sensitive. Generally speaking, they're set to the point where it won't detect a belt buckle. But so what? Yeah, well that's to move people through but it has nothing to do with safety at this point. It's just moving people through. That's the thing they have to do once in a while. Right, but it has nothing to do with safety. This is just the theater part. It's just annoying. Well we know that. I know. There's no reason to talk about it like this. This is ridiculous. I feel like this guy thinks he's doing somebody a favor because he's all in. Oh, terrorists are everywhere. Oh, you gotta bust them on this.

12:37 The creep. Poor guy. He's just trying to do his job. Yeah, he's an idiot. Okay. New York is a... Oh, by the way, before I... Just as a side, since you're talking about that. So I dropped the kids, JC and... I'm sorry, not JC, but Jay and Nick at the airport so they can go up and they're gonna spend... They spent a couple of days with Nick's parents up in Washington. So it was a... People should take notes of this. You should take notes on these things. Monday, they flew out. I drove to the Oakland airport.

13:14 The place was desolate. There was nobody there. I got there two hours early because oh my god, you know, blah blah blah. I drive in terminal one, there was not one car even parked on the curb. And in terminal two, there was a few cars, but it was about one half of what it normally is in Southwest. And they said that the TSA line was non-existent. So Monday, now Friday meanwhile was a nightmare. Yeah, I'll bet. Before the weekend, but then Monday was nothing. So people take, no, there are these moments, and I've flown on them, where you go to the airport, there's nobody there. Right. Well, we had, it was pretty busy, both sides. But New York was insane.

13:58 And there is nothing wrong with the economy if you look at New York. Of course, it's no one from New York who's in there. Now we stayed in Soho. I think I told you about the app that the former New York banker turned me on to, the Hotel Tonight? You have not told me about this little secret. Oh, okay. Hotel Tonight, which is a website or an app. It's kind of like an overstock only it's for douchebags like the former New York bankers. So you get swanky rooms. We got the... what was it? The 60 Soho for, you know, a little over 200 bucks a night. It was, I mean, that's half the price of what those rooms cost. So that was fantastic. And, you know, it was a fun hotel. A little boutique-y, but at least we were out of the midtown area. It was just, they're herding people like, just like sheep.

14:55 Everywhere, you know, okay walk past that display walk past that Fifth Avenue You can't even if you wanted to you can't move in or out of it. You just have to go with the flow It was completely completely overcrowded and then downtown in the village It's really quaint and there's I mean all you see is restaurants and stores to buy stuff. There's no infrastructure You know, I didn't see a laundromat. I didn't see you know any of the things you even grocery stores are very few and far between so I conclude that there's you know, this must be just a

15:34 mainly Asian NYU students who are hanging around who live there. Beginning of the end. It really is. There's nothing to live. And although, wow, we took a look at the Hudson Yards. I had not seen any of these West Side projects. with the buildings, it's just insane what's being built with no one in them. Russian-owned, no one wants them, no one can afford the taxes, I don't know how it's gonna work out except for the tourism. That works really well, the tourism. Well, if they want to turn New York City into a tourist haven, there goes his effort. Wait, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight,

16:14 8, 9, 10. Whoa! Economy is doing great! Oh my god! Woo! Listen to that horn! Back back to New York people like this effort report. Yeah, of course But anyway, the economy is doing yes in New York if they want to turn New York into nothing more than just a tourist attraction or people can point it to tall buildings and go wow Yeah, then they have they got it made but if there's no grocery stores and all the little things you need to do sustain a actual living public It's not yeah, I don't think I don't think there's any way to sustain a normal living public It's just not there and you know and it's a line of people who are still standing in line for cronuts And what is wrong with people? Standing in line for cronuts. Yeah, there's a whole line and every single day was right by the hotel What are they standing in line for for cronuts? Oh my god for half an hour for the croissant donut cross like okay, I

17:17 Now, not as many dogs as I had expected, although at the airport there were quite a few dogs when we arrived, but in the city itself in general not that many dogs. Very noticeable amongst the women in New York, particularly the younger women, all of them Well, not all but a huge majority have enormous fake eyelashes and at the keeper and I we attribute this it has to be something with Instagram That this is happening. But I mean the eyelashes that is it millennial? Yes. Oh, yeah, it's young women the eyes on the list Yes, the eyelashes the young women are wearing are I mean, they're like Betty Boop They bat their eyes and my hair flies all over the place. It's noticeable. I

18:03 I thought that was interesting. Let's see, what else did we have? Oh yes, so we have stalls, you know, there's always little stalls around Central Park or just anywhere that people can set stuff up. By the way, plenty of counterfeit China stuff, counterfeit Gucci, Chanel, that's just going on, that never stopped. I thought that was supposed to end. Oh yeah, that was supposed to end. Oh no, no, no, and it's not just Canal Street, it's everywhere. They got that little rug, boom, they got everything there, and they're out in the open, no one's hassling them, and so I guess that's still okay. Yeah, so much for copyright enforcement. Exactly. So we got that. Cash, oh yes, so

18:51 There are stalls peppered throughout New York, even whether it was Washington's, uh, was it, uh, um, Washington Square Park? Uh, I think, uh, Central Park. Anyway, stands with Trump hate buttons. filled filled Trump yeah, there's just just a haters got a whole stand of resist F Trump just and it's it's organized. You know these aren't just single guys Somebody in New York's got to send me some photos of this yeah now It's it's it's everywhere, but anyone around Columbus Circle can I can take some I think I got one picture But we need to have multiple I agree. I should have done that actually Yes, let me see what else was there that was was interesting

19:38 Yeah, well the cash is a problem, you know, they're trying to move to to non-cash systems and we went to to see Moulin Rouge on Broadway and in the foyer like oh grab a drink as a guy standing there with a little stand and Order two drinks and I said, what do you want cash or cards? No card is easy. Okay, so give him the card and And first he has to go to a wireless terminal, he has to clickety-click press some buttons, then he has to get the terminal, the portable card reader terminal, has to type in the amount, that didn't communicate, then he sticks the card in, pulls it out, and then I have to sign the piece of paper. Like when is this going? How is that easier? Exactly! I'm like why didn't we just do cash? Yeah, well I don't really have a lot of change and

20:32 Yeah, just one of those minor irritating things. That's millennial too. And then Moulin Rouge, which I had not seen the movie and apparently the theatrical production has been updated with the songs. I don't know if you've ever seen it, John, but it's quite cleverly done. I enjoyed it very much. They have an intermission and the minute the intermission hits, so the lights go down, the actors are off stage, lights come up, Everybody jumps up taking selfies running down to the stage. Oh look at this! It was bizarre. Just selfie after selfie like oh my god. We have nothing better to do.

21:16 God, it's pathetic. Discuss the piece with your neighbor or whatever. No, no, no, no, no, no. That would take analysis. Selfies are better. Besides, you can post them on Instagram to show off that you're at the play and nobody else is. That's the point. That's the point. Look at me. Look at me. I'm at the play. I'm at the play and you're not. Food-wise, two experiences. One, I was very surprised to find foie gras on the menu. which I immediately ordered and devoured. I said, how can this be? Is this not outlawed in your city, in your state? And which I was informed it goes into effect 2021. So if you want your foie gras in New York, you can still get it while the eating is good.

22:01 Was it duck or was it goose? It was goose. It was? Yeah. It's apparently, I thought it was outlawed. I know that most of the duck foie gras is actually out of Long Island. There's some farm there that does. That wouldn't surprise me. And so New York is a big producer of the duck foie gras and it seems to me that would be a good, you know, that they're I don't know, hurting their own businesses. California also makes fraud go out and they banned it. It's dumb. Well, it's still, it's not banned yet in New York. Then we went to this place called Flippers, which was a pancake waffle house.

22:40 Now, I thought it was a stripper place. Initially, I was like, yeah, let's go there. But this was an upscale kind of hipster. You know, there was a place if you went down to Birmingham, Alabama, you'd get the same food for like $2. Well, wait for it. So I ordered pancakes and bacon. That's it. Pancakes and bacon. It takes 20 minutes, comes back, on the plate there's two pancakes. On each pancake is a sunny-side up fried egg. And on the side it's...

23:18 Truffle fries. All right, this is... first of all, this is... what is this with the eggs? Yes, that's a menu failure. Most people just know we're going to serve it that way. I said, well, I don't want the eggs on my pancake. He said, if I wanted that, I'd go to a truck stop. And even then, I don't think I want it. It was very odd. And then who serves truffle fries with pancakes? Truffle fries. Oh, brother. I have an idea. Now Tina had waffles and people will love it Tina had chicken and waffles which apparently was really good. It had some kind of molasses type You know the dressing and or syrupy stuff and that was outstanding But I just I couldn't get beyond the fact that order pancakes and then these two eggs show up I love eggs on my pan. Oh, I am NOT a fan. Oh

24:09 I think I picked up that when I was an air pollution inspector and we used to eat at Denny's all the time. And Denny's used to always serve an egg on the Grand Slam, whatever the hell it was. Yeah, that is the Grand Slam. Because that's where you eat. While you're eating at the fancy place, I as a government worker was eating at Denny's. But I got into the egg on the pancakes and it was that. So when I make my pancakes, I usually make an egg. Hard press for me. Not truffle fries, I haven't tried that. Oh, the whole thing was strange. But we had a great time. Thank you everybody. Thanks for letting us take a show off just to recuperate. I haven't really recuperated. I think that one hour time difference somehow it can mess me up more than six hours. It's very strange.

24:54 It's only one hour. I know I know but yeah waking up early and I just yeah And I hope everybody enjoyed your your story time. I certainly did I we love listening to it We love your stories. Yeah, I got more Really You have more that you haven't repeated yet. Okay. Most of them are reruns so Let's see, there's a number of things we can talk about. I don't think there's much about the debate that we have to cover. That was on Thursday after the show. I don't think there's... is there anything that we have to... It was a nothing burger. Oh, geez.

25:36 All I heard is that Joe Biden went into some stuttering thing and half of America thought he was making fun of kids and the other half thought people were making fun of him for stuttering. Did you follow this at all? No, I did not follow that at all. All I know is his eyeball didn't blow out and they didn't... Jack him up enough with enough drugs. Well listen to this, here it is, this is 8 seconds. A little kid who says I can't talk. What do I do? I have scores of these young women and men. Now I think Joe stutters like that. I think he got caught in it. I don't think he was making fun of any kids. No, I think he was making fun of some or not making fun but describing a stuttering kid. Really? Straight up. Yeah. You know, he's a stutterer. Remember that was his excuse when he did poorly in the debates. That's why he felt he could do that gag because he as a former stutterer, he could be a stutterer. Former. He wasn't mocking a stutterer. He was just

26:34 showing how a stutterer does sometimes talk. Really? To me it sounds like he wanted to do that but he got caught and he actually got into a stutter mode. That sounds like a true... Okay. Let me listen again. A little kid who says, I can't talk. What do I do? I have scores of these young women and men. I don't know. I don't know. Interesting that we had a vice president and a president who both were stammerers slash stutterers in Obama. He could do it too, he could get caught in the loop. Oh no, Obama is a total, yeah, if he wasn't a stutterer when he was younger I'd be surprised but he's definitely a stammerer. Right, and then Joe... Same thing. Yeah, maybe, milieu, maybe that's what it is, the milieu.

27:24 To me the milieu of them. Okay, so that was it. So the debate was I'm not gonna use the word I can't believe you used it, but I used it because you used it again like a few weeks ago Well, then let me get to the thousand way. I use it differently. Uh-huh. I I say nothing burger. Oh, instead of nothing burger. Two distinct words as opposed to nothing burger. You are a man of so many talents. It's unbelievable I could do that. Let's get to the 1,000 sealed indictments that we've been waiting for as we are still awaiting the... Well, no, DeGeneva has, he's not showing up much anymore. He's kind of been banned because he keeps promising too much. But Fox News did an interview with Barr and it's, in this case, video would be helpful because he has a real smug smile on his face when he's going through these little bits.

28:17 And the first question here is about the Durham investigation, which is of course, you know, Horowitz was just a setup. The Horowitz report. No, no. The thousands of sealed indictments. They're coming in this one. But it could take a few weeks, a few months. Can you update us on that in terms of how that's going or what the time frame is when we can expect to see that report? Well, he's moving very diligently. I'm not involved in the day-to-day work of that. I know in just a general sense what they're looking at and otherwise it's his investigation and he runs it as he sees fit and I haven't given him any timelines and we haven't discussed the timeline as to when he thought it would be complete.

29:05 But just my general, there were people who expected it to come a week or two after Horowitz's report. And just based on my general knowledge of the things he's looking at and has to look at in the future, I wouldn't think that he'd be in a position for quite a few months. And it's a criminal investigation. There are criminal investigation elements to it. Yes. Oh, there you go. There's thousands of sealed indictments criminal criminal investigation ongoing and He's doing a very, very thorough investigation, including the intelligence agency's heads will roll. He's not just looking at the FBI, he's looking at other agencies and also private departments and also private actors. And so it's a much broader investigation. And also he's not just looking at the FISA aspect of it. He is looking at all the conduct, both before and after the election.

30:07 It would include agencies that could have been involved in this, but we're getting a lot of cooperation from those agencies. You have to remember on something like this, you know, part of the reason you do something like this is to deal with some of the various theories that have been thrown out and either show one way or the other whether they're valid or not. So the fact that you're looking into certain allegations doesn't necessarily mean you give them credence. And I think The media understood that when Bob Mueller was doing his work. Now listen, this is very interesting. I'm glad you caught that. Listen to what he says here at the end. Some of the various theories that have been thrown out and either show one way or the other whether they're valid or not. So the fact that you're looking into certain allegations doesn't necessarily mean you give them credence. And I think the media understood that when Bob Mueller was doing his work and they should bear that in mind when they're watching Durham.

31:04 I'm not quite sure what is he saying that well it may look like we've got thousands of sealed indictments but don't be fooled and what exactly is he saying? That's exactly, you nailed it. That's what it sounded like to me it's like calm down it ain't gonna be all that. Very disappointing. We've been promised, we've been promised. We've been promised nothing. And then Giuliani Oh my goodness, Giuliani went on Glenn Beck's show. The guy's a maniac. I love this guy. Giuliani is there and he's got papers and he's showing affidavits. He's saying he's gonna send him to jail. He's gonna prosecute Joe Biden, Hunter Biden. They've stolen billions of dollars. Here's the proof. Not that Adam Schiff lies. Here's the proof. Now, the Ukrainians started to investigate this.

31:56 Two people from our embassy went to see them and told them, don't investigate it. We don't care. We don't care about the $5.3 billion of our taxpayers' money. And you say, well, why would they do that? And then there was even a lot more pressure. Why would they do that? Because what this shows is that our embassy was giving this money not to the government. They would give it to NGOs. You know who the biggest NGO owner is? Yeah, George Soros. Oh my god, anti-semitic. We're anti-semitic now. I know. We said the word George Soros. I'll be damned if you're gonna call me anti-semitic. I'm not anti-semitic. I prosecuted Italian criminals, I prosecuted Jewish criminals, I prosecuted every kind of criminal imaginable. I even prosecuted some Martian criminals, I think. Okay, Rudy.

32:40 Rudy, this money is going to democratic NGOs. I know. And they waste half of it. The government gets half of it. And here's what the decent Ukrainians told me, and there are a lot of decent Ukrainians, that you guys, particularly under Obama, where corruption got much worse, they will all testify. You guys come here like Biden and you lecture us on corruption. And then our people laugh at you because he and his son, two of the most corrupt people in the country. They all knew he was a joke. Can you convince me that this will come out? That these people will be judged? Sounds like Beck is pretty annoyed by thousands of sealed indictments as well. Yes, exactly. I'm gonna try until I die, so they better kill me. There's no way they shouldn't be prosecuted. This should be in a federal court.

33:32 I know federal courts, I know federal courts better than anybody. I will be completely immodest and say I was the most successful US attorney in the last 50 years. These are out and out crimes. If anybody's afraid of prosecuting them, you make me the special prosecutor with two people and not 35 million dollars. I'll prosecute every single one of them myself. Rudy Giuliani laying it down. Smackdown. And he's, everything that we've discussed and the reports we've gotten about Franklin Templeton investments, how the money is routed around, and then ultimately, and now they're coming back again after Pelosi's kid, apparently, you know, he was, I think we played a clip of him, he was there pretending he was there for baseball, but he was consulting for some other pipe, you know, pipeline company or something. I'm telling you,

34:26 Thousands, thousands of sealed indictments. If someone doesn't go to jail I will lose a lot of faith. And a lot of people will be... No one's going to jail. Somebody's got to go to jail. Somebody's got to go to jail. At least a couple of fines here and there and somebody's got to be forced to give the money back. You know and Lindy Hop, Lindsey Graham, remember he was there in Ukraine with all the shenanigans with McCain and with well with the whole Clinton team, with Brennan and with Victoria Cagle Newland with her F the EU quote. And so Lindsey was first, he was like, well we're just gonna do a real speedy trial, we're just gonna vote in the Senate on this impeachment, we'll be done with it so we can get back to doing stuff. Because he's afraid that he'll be implicated in some of these obvious corrupt practices that were going on. But

35:22 But he had a meeting with the president, and now he sings a different tune. And if you believe the Clinton impeachment trial was fair, that's exactly the same type trial that will happen in the Senate with President Trump. But I just left President Trump. He's mad as hell that they would do this to him and now deny him his day in court. The reason they're denying him his day in court is they know their case sucks.

35:59 Lindsay, that's a great, I'll give you a borderline clip for that one. I didn't hear that. It's funny. So, well, he probably assured Lindsay that he's not going to go to jail. Yeah, he says, if anything happens, I'll bail you out. Don't worry about it. Yeah, because, I mean, Lindsay was like not not for a trial at all. Anyway, this whole thing. Well, I don't know. I mean, the idea that they just kick it out to make it look like a joke is, I think, the way to go as opposed to just dragging this on for another year with new testimonies and new showboating. Although it will prevent them from doing anything, it will also screw up the schedules of the senators running for president. I mean, there's elements there that are positive, but for the most part, it would be nicer if they just

36:56 kicked us to the curb as fast as they could and get it over with, they would be forgotten by the time of the election. Yeah, I don't think that's the plan on either side. I think everyone's vying for this timeline and who can we screw up more? And the media, I mean, this is the red meat. This is what they need. I mean, my God, I've seen the media is so deprived, they need something now that they're even trying to create a horse race between Yang and Mayor Pete. Oh, yeah, have you seen a lot of really I later in the show? We'll have a lot of international news that's going on lots of very interesting stuff Yes going on and you you know that it's not being covered because the media is just too bloodthirsty over this one one One lone topic right and I do have a few clips. I want to play about impeachment. Okay? I want to play the

37:47 The catch-up clip, this is the Trump rundown on NBC talking about everything from the impeachment to the Christmas surprise. Tell me, is it Jeff Begay's? I wish. Oh, too bad. That would have been a true Christmas gift. On this Christmas Eve, President Trump is sharpening his attacks against Democrats as the standoff over the impeachment process intensifies. Speaking from his Mar-a-Lago resort, the president accused House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of hating the entire Republican Party. And the president also addressed North Korea's ominous warning of a Christmas surprise.

38:23 All of it creating a sharp contrast to his holiday greetings to troops overseas. Chief White House correspondent, Hallie Jackson, has the latest from West Palm Beach. On this Christmas Eve, the president's making his own list of who's nice, like Mitch McConnell. Very smart guy, very good guy. and a very fair guy. And who's not, like Nancy Pelosi. She's doing a tremendous disservice to the country. She hates the Republican Party. She hates all of the people that voted for me. It's a familiar refrain from the president, frustrated as negotiations over a Senate impeachment trial appear to be on a holiday hiatus. Democrats back the House Speaker as she holds off on sending those articles of impeachment to the Senate until she's confident that process will be fair.

39:09 Still, the president insists it's Republicans who have the upper hand. We're in a very good position. Ultimately, that decision is going to be made by Mitch McConnell, and he will make it. He has the right to do whatever he wants. He's the head of the Senate. The trial's start date in question here at home and overseas. Questions on the timing of something else. The so-called Christmas surprise North Korea's been hinting at for weeks. since officials there released these photos of Kim Jong-un on horseback visiting a sacred site, seen as a sign Pyongyang was plotting an aggressive move. We'll find out what the surprise is and we'll deal with it very successfully and let's see what happens. U.S. military and intelligence officials are on alert for a possible long-range missile test with new satellite photos showing North Korea expanding a factory used to produce those missiles. The president downplaying that Christmas gift threat with a quip.

40:01 Maybe it's a nice present. Maybe it's a present where he sends me a beautiful vase, Oh no, a vase and we've had nothing. Another disappointing... The vase may be stuck in shipping or at customs. So disappointing that we didn't get anything from Kim Jong-un. Meanwhile, of course, Pelosi pulled back the, sending the paperwork over even though according to some experts it doesn't matter where she does or not but

40:40 I got this clip of her answering the question of somebody accusing her of playing games. And I played the clip and I was producing it last night. I'm listening to it, we played this clip already. And so I went back and I realized it was, this is from a month ago, I have a very similar clip where she just loses her mind. And we remember that clip, but it wasn't the last show or the show before the show before that. It was way back. And so you listen to this clip and this is a deja vu clip. We're under risk, as some Republicans have said, of looking like you're playing games with impeachment if you hold on to these articles for too long. I said what I was going to say, Nancy. When we bring the bill, which is, just so you know, there's a bill made in order by the Rules Committee that we can call up at any time in order to send it over to the Senate and to have the provisions in there to pay for the impeachment.

41:34 And then the next step, whatever you want to call it, the trial. That is where you put the managers. I was not prepared to put the managers and that bill yet because we don't know the arena that we are in. Frankly, I don't care what the Republicans say. Any other questions? Not on this subject. I've said this is it. I've honored Nancy. What clip was, I don't remember, I mean, she sounds like she sounds often. I don't know if I remember the clip. That's the problem. She always sounds like this. She's incoherent. She does. And meanwhile, the old meme is back that the president is a Russian agent. This just continues. I mean, I'm sure it was slow over the holiday for the B teams to come in and get guests. Who did I find here? They had their old notes. Well, this was very funny.

42:32 Democratic Congresswoman Torres. Yes, I'm not sure where she is. She may be from Alaska. They were really scraping the barrel and here's what what she said about about you know the ongoing controversy with the president. It's great to have you and I wonder how concerned you are that Putin was able to influence not just Through sort of Russian meddling and trying to persuade first. This is my favorite meme that will not stop They keep saying that Russian disinformation about Ukraine's possible involvement in the 2016 election which would in this case according to

43:14 what we've been told relate to the Steele dossier is just categorically wrong. It's been debunked. It comes directly from Putin. Putin has put this into the heads of every single member of the Republican Party. It's great to have you and I wonder how concerned you are that Putin was able to influence not just Through sort of Russian meddling and trying to persuade persuade voters or Americans But actually to influence the president in a way that has him picking what Putin is saying over his own Intel community I think after the 2016 elections, the gloves were really off when it came to Vladimir Putin's influence with President Trump and the GOP. Because let's not forget, the GOP continues to parrot not only on the floor, but also going on to Fox News all of the things, the lies that Putin continues to spread, blaming and deflecting everyone else on his interference in our US elections.

44:18 Why do you think the president was such an easy target for Putin here? Well, we know the answer to this one. I am afraid that Vladimir Putin may have something on the president and it is the reason why the president has continued to play the handmaid to Vladimir Putin. Hooker's pissing on the bed! I'm inviting him to the White House and opening the doors and not having any advisors present, taking the notes from the interpreter and continuing to talk to him and continue to parrot everything that he tells him.

44:55 Russia is no more on she's a congresswoman Torres I'll look it up for you almost done us. They have never been a friend to us. They continue to compromise us Internationally, they continue to attack our friends and our allies Overseas so we have to be very careful. We have to keep a close eye on on how this continues to evolve I'm sorry. She's from California Yeah, well that makes nothing but sense. Yes, so you know again it's obviously Putin has a peepee tape that's why the president is acting like this. But we already talked about this, even if he hasn't we already know about it. Just keep on. So how's this gonna be, how's that blackmail? Just keep repeating, keep repeating, keep repeating.

45:43 Then we had... I don't think they are repeating. I think they're honestly sincere. Yes. It's clear that she believes it. Somebody's got her repeating it, but they're idiots. Let's play one more. This is the kicker. Well, wait, I'm going to skip... Well, let's go to this one first. This is Alex Jones. Now, I want to give you a preface. Seriously? You're just doing this just to irk me? This one's interesting because you know, there's always this information, you know, there's always this kind of like even pachinko questions Alex Jones about who's like... Yeah, who was the... What is Alex Jones? Who is Alex Jones? He drops a little gem in here. First he's going on about how, you know, these guys are trying to set people up for blackmail and they're gonna... And then he drops a bombshell in the middle of it as he's just ranting and you won't even notice it. Except I kind of ended it. Well, I actually let it go a little further. But now they pointed out you'll notice it. But I'm listening to this going,

46:45 What was the point of that little nugget here? I always loved Bill Hicks. F**k one time, got convicted smuggling kids. Now she runs the Amber Alert. this is like something out of a nightmare. He's talking about the the woman in Haiti who smuggled the kids out and then uh yeah that's just this is the lead up story all right all right science fiction movie but let's look at some of these documents here's a look at the Clinton body count and and these are just well-known cases and now there's been so many others that have died that have been connected to the Clintons. And this whole network they're using of blackmail to control people through folks like Jeffrey Epstein. And then over here, you've got the Epoch Times breakdown of all of this and how they created the insurance policy and Fusion GPS, the fake dossier and tried to set Trump up with double agents with the Russians, but Trump never took the bait. And now these people who are tied into this whole network

47:46 are politically trying to impeach and remove the President of the United States, but they're getting more and more desperate as their operatives are exposed. So we've got to ask ourselves, what are they going to do? They're going to threaten to release dirt on all of these people that they've been blackmailing in this network if they don't do what they're told. But by Infowars and by you and by President Trump who's been going after these networks exposing Spygate and exposing how they're controlling people with payoffs and blackmail and corruption and threats and lawsuits. Then as this information comes out it's only going to implicate them because they can only get away with the blackmail when people don't know about the larger system and they can just leak in the news that somebody was having sex with a 14 year old girl or that somebody is a

48:41 Satanist or that someone is involved in the occult or somebody like Adam Schiff is admittedly at parties doing quote Egyptian rituals with Ed Buck And all those dead black men that keep coming out of his house. Well, this is not new I've reported on this on the the Standard Hotel in in California with the the chemicals and you know the the chlorine cloud which apparently was used to dissolve Dissolve one of shifts underage victims. This is not news this This is all part of the thousands of sealed indictments. Well it was news to me that Schiff was hanging out with all these guys that ended up dead in some sort of gay cabal. Yeah, no, the story is that Schiff accidentally killed a 14 year old kid.

49:34 And as Joan said there, the story goes there was a black kid and that he was 14 and that Schiff was doing stuff with him and the kid OD'd or something, which is kind of in line with Buck. Yeah, Buck who is a number one major league Democratic... Yeah, well isn't he in jail now? Isn't he still in arrest? Under arrest? I don't know. We haven't followed Buck. We should do that. They won't play much about that in the State of California. No, of course not. Of course they won't do that. It's all part of the system. Well, since you brought that up, then I might as well play the audio of the latest Kevin Spacey video. Did you see this?

50:16 You know, I know about it. It was one of those things I was working on something else and I kind of avoided it. I said if it's important, Adam will pick it up. So Kevin Spacey, he did one of these previously. I think it was about a year ago. In the meantime, there's been some nasty stuff that's happened to Kevin Spacey. Not actually stuff that's happened to him, but people who have accused him kind of wind up dead, including Most recently this week Ari Ben who was The Norwegian princess's ex-husband died at his own hand age 47 And he had openly accused Kevin Spacey of groping him at some event So people wind up dead when they accuse Kevin Spacey of doing anything you know the

51:13 The thinking is that Spacey is somehow connected to these types of groups who do nutty, rapey things and he is threatening to expose everything. And this is just the story. So he comes out again with his Frank Underwood accent. So he's doing the whole, I do declare. And he's sitting in front of his fireplace and first he's stoking up the the fire and then he goes into this one-minute bit. You didn't really think I was gonna miss the opportunity to wish you a Merry Christmas, did you? It's been a pretty good year and I'm grateful to have my health back. And in light of that I've made some changes in my life and I'd like to invite you to join me. As we walk into 2020 I want to cast my vote for more good in this world.

52:10 Ah, yes. I know what you're thinking. Can he be serious? I'm dead serious. And it's not that hard, trust me. The next time someone does something you don't like, you can go on the attack. But you can also hold your fire and do the unexpected. You can kill them with kindness. Cue the creepy music. Entertaining. I'll give him that. Wow, kill him with kindness. This is like the OJ Simpson tweets. Yeah, and so his hashtag is KTWK, kill them with kindness. And I don't know, so he's saying, hey, if someone does something bad to you, you can strike out, you could wait, you could wait patiently and kill them with kindness.

53:05 So I don't know man Kevin Spacey is a trip. I'm so happy he's in in the world doing this it makes it so interesting Excellent, excellent, excellent. It's insanity out there. Okay, I got my last impeachment clip. I think this is it. This is the, just so we know, because we've been teasing this a bit and we're going to be, it's going to continue for a while, which is more impeachment articles coming. Oh, geez. A House Judiciary Committee lawyer has raised the possibility of additional articles impeachment against President Trump if the House uncovers new evidence that Trump attempted to obstruct

53:45 investigations of his actions. The possibility was raised in a court filing Monday amidst legal battle over whether the Democrats can force former White House counsel Don McGahn to testify. McGahn was special counsel Robert Mueller's central witness. His testimony could relate to whether Trump tried to obstruct the Mueller investigation. The House has already impeached Trump for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress related to Trump's effort to pressure Ukraine to investigate his political rival, Joe Biden. This is not the first time some Democratic lawmakers have raised the prospect of additional articles of impeachment, among them Democratic Texas Congressmember Al Green, who in 2017 was the first Congressmember to call for President Trump's impeachment from the floor of the House.

54:33 This is Congressmember Greene speaking on Democracy Now! just after Trump's impeachment. We have brought these articles of impeachment dealing with the bigotry, the hatred, the homophobia, Islamophobia, xenophobia, all of the invidious phobias, the anti-Semitism. We brought three articles of impeachment addressing these things, understanding, of course, that the House of Representatives went so far as to condemn the president. for his racist comments. But that wasn't enough. Condemnation was, at best, impeachment-lite. If Andrew Johnson could be impeached in Article 10 of the Articles of Impeachment against him for reasons rooted in his hatred, his bigotry and racism, this president can be impeached for these reasons, as well.

55:20 I tell you, they have so overplayed their hand with this. No one cares. No one's watching. Everyone is completely tuned out, not interested. Even the debate's got, what's it, six million viewers? Lowest, lowest, lowest so far. And then, I mean, I've seen people tweeting, uh, is Pence no president? I mean, that's how stupid we are. No one's paying attention. I guess Pence is president, what? These people don't know, they don't care. They're still living in the days of Watergate and thinking they're Woodward and Bernstein, whatever they think they've accomplished. It's not working. The American public, it's not that they don't believe it, they just completely don't care. They've been inundated with headlines and clickbait and no one reads. It just doesn't care.

56:12 Do not care at all except for the mainstream media. I have a couple clips to wrap this up Michael Moore now, I don't know if this was a podcast Well, they did bleep it so maybe it was on CNN. Michael Moore in conversation with Robert De Niro. Could you ask for a better pairing? I mean that is like, that is like pairing... This already has clip of the day written all over it. This is like pairing foie gras with a beautiful riesling my friend. This is what you want. Actually, actually foie gras and Chateau de Cam is considered the absolute top pairing ever. Is that a riesling?

55:20 I tell you, they have so overplayed their hand with this. No one cares. No one's watching. Everyone is completely tuned out, not interested. Even the debate's got, what's it, six million viewers? Lowest, lowest, lowest so far. And then, I mean, I've seen people tweeting, uh, is Pence no president? I mean, that's how stupid we are. No one's paying attention. I guess Pence is president, what? These people don't know, they don't care. They're still living in the days of Watergate and thinking they're Woodward and Bernstein, whatever they think they've accomplished. It's not working. The American public, it's not that they don't believe it, they just completely don't care. They've been inundated with headlines and clickbait and no one reads. It just doesn't care.

56:12 Do not care at all except for the mainstream media. I have a couple clips to wrap this up Michael Moore now, I don't know if this was a podcast Well, they did bleep it so maybe it was on CNN. Michael Moore in conversation with Robert De Niro. Could you ask for a better pairing? I mean that is like, that is like pairing... This already has clip of the day written all over it. This is like pairing foie gras with a beautiful riesling my friend. This is what you want. Actually, actually foie gras and Chateau de Cam is considered the absolute top pairing ever. Is that a riesling?

56:53 No, it's a sautern. Oh! Delicious sweet sautern. The Riesling I had was almost like a sautern. Was probably a baron isolation. I have no idea what it was. It was one of those. Hey, we'll pair the wine for you Like okay, you do it What's easier you do that? Anyway, here we go Michael Moore with the infamous Robert De Niro, right? I know yes if people are thinking that I'm talking to one of those characters Mr. De Niro is not going to whack any of the Republicans or do anything to them or Jake Lamotta them To the ground no even when I said I want to unless you wanted to yeah, please Trump in the face after I you know I made a thing way before we but wait about a few months before he was elected and I was meaning it in a in a as a figure of speech not literally punch But just to say okay to let it to see what it's like to have you to hear what you said and

57:51 By somebody else like me say I'm gonna punch you in the face to see what that's like That's what it's how dare you say that to people somebody who's not being harassed in the audience or something How dare you that's wrong, right? But it would kind of feel nice not hurt him, but just punch him in the face. Just lie. Yeah Listen, they're actually talking about physical violence and how cool it would be that to people somebody who's being harassed in the audience or something. How dare you? That's wrong. Right. But it would kind of feel good to punch him. Not hurt him, but just punch him in the face. Just a little. Yeah. Just cathartic. No, I'd like to see a bag of shit right in his face. Hit him right in the face like that and let the picture go all over the world.

58:38 And that would be the most humiliating thing because he needs to be humiliated. He needs to be confronted and humiliated by whoever his opponent is, his political opponent. They have to stand up to him. They don't have to do it in an obvious physical way, but they have to have the form and ability to confront him and to put him in his place because the people have to see that to see him be humiliated. So he would like a sick guy that guys, you know This is the reason he was pretty much banished from the Golden Globes nominations for his role in the Irishman which which he was expected to get a nomination for best actor they was snubbed him Oh, you think is it up with this guy anymore? You can't trust him in a live telecast either. Yeah, but I'll tell you to say I

59:25 And he walked it back a little bit at the end, but to say, I'd like to see a big bag of shit just explode right in his face and the picture should go all over the world. That's exactly what happened with Pim Fortuyn, who was going to win the Dutch election in 2000. and he was an outsider and people just vilified him and then it was the animal activists and they started throwing cakes and pies in his face and two weeks before the election he's shot dead by one of these nut jobs. You got to be careful when you're saying that kind of stuff. Yeah, no, De Niro is a horrible person. It's and it's so dis- because he's still- I watched the Irishman, I was able to watch without being triggered by being him

1:00:12 And he's still a great actor. No, he's a great actor. I couldn't watch The Irishman though. It's so slow. I liked it. If you want to watch a well-paced movie that is outstanding, humorous, it's very funny, at top of his game is the Tarantino movie Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Yeah, I saw that. I didn't like it. It was okay. It was okay. The story just wasn't great for me. It was shot beautifully. I get the connection to Tate and Manson and all that, but here's a review for you. Since you know I am Team Jen, I've always been against Angelina Jolie in this. Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon

1:00:56 I got paid a lot of money, no doubt, to create a series for Apple TV. And I decided that I'd sign up for the free month, but also, I will go another month just to support this show. The Morning Show? Yeah, everybody likes the show. It's not that funny though. It's not meant to... When we first started watching it, I thought, well, this will be a show about a morning show. And I kind of get it and it'll be really interesting. But it's not. It's completely... And they'll say, it's not really based on Matt Lauer, but it's about Matt Lauer. It's about Lauer, it's about Weinstein, it's about this station that goes through the exact same scenario, right down to the button under the desk that automatically closes Matt Lauer's door. In this case, it's played expertly by Steve Carell. This is not meant to be funny. This is a drama, and it's very, very well done.

1:01:52 I mean, I'm blown away by... I don't... it may be a mistake for them to do another season. I think they could have ended it where they did. But what is extremely cool about it is it shows what we've been talking about for 12 years. When people are in production television mode. How they talk about on-air hosts, how they talk about what's shit, what's no good, get this person off the air. You know, the stuff that we, when we say we're in executive mode, we're gonna talk about someone, about their external features because that's how it's done in television. And you see right down to every single scripted word, it is, and it's extremely accurate. And what I like is they take both sides of the rapiness of Matt Lauer

1:02:39 by showing that the culture within a television production studio can sometimes just get silly. And I don't know if I can explain this without you kind of have to see it, but John, you know it. When you're doing a show with the same crew and it's either every day, every day is a better way to look at it, particularly if you're all getting up at 3.30 in the morning, then it happens that, you know, funny innuendos or double entendres will become kind of what the whole crew was joking about. Am I explaining that right? Yeah, well, I think you're explaining it as well as you can.

1:03:16 Which is that people had, they developed their own language. It's almost like our show, we developed our own language. Yes. And you develop your own language on a set. And just one word will mean a whole bunch of things to people that work there. Which explains why when we saw the actual videotape of Matt Lauer saying something really suggestive and rude to I think the makeup person, and that was caught on camera. No one else is saying anything about it. And he was saying, hey, I really love that dress, you can wear that anytime. That can often be I'm not saying it's right, but that can often be the exact time of vibe you have on a television set With the crew and everyone will participate. Yeah, and everyone will participate men and women alike now Yeah, there's no doubt that that that there was extreme violations happening at least depicted in this show But it's a great show if you want to understand how television really works because it's extremely accurate and

1:04:13 in my in my experience And also it's just a good piece where they look at me too from all sides not necessarily Just one one bad actor is Matt Lauer the rapist No the female host participated in the culture and it's it's it's a little more gray than you'd than you think it might be so I would recommend watching that Get the get the free trial then at least to see one or two episodes. Outstanding work, really outstanding. The only bummer... Bummer? Yeah, there's a bummer. A bummer, wow. The consulting producer, because part of it is loosely based on his book Top of the Morning, is Brian Seltzer-Water.

1:04:59 He consulted on this thing, not so much for the hashtag Me Too stuff, but for the accuracy of what it's like to be on a top rated morning show, everyone sleep deprived and kind of how that works in television. So he knows enough about that. He's a gossipy kind of guy. Guy yeah, he understands that you know that that thing that a lot of people don't understand is those morning shows which are coming out of New York day people have to get up at 3 in the morning like you say or 4 yeah to get to the studio and get prepared I a lot of the people that are on those shows or that actually can handle those shows or or abnormal to begin with

1:05:42 So they can do that weird sleep deprivation type of show. Brian Gumbel, who was on the Today Show for a decade or more, for a long time, very serious guy. He said once that he only needs two hours of sleep. He says sleep's overrated. Most people can't do that kind of work. They show the alarm going off at 3.30 constantly, kind of like a groundhog day. I've done that. I haven't done morning television, done morning radio for several months at Z100 in New York, and it's hard.

1:06:20 You know, you got to go to bed at 8 30, you know, if you want to be any kind of human being it's and you know I can see why a lot of people would start to do drugs In fact a lot of morning radio guys do drugs for that very reason not me. Yeah So I do have a Brian Stelzer water clip as it pertains to the impeachment here. He is with Yes, this is David Remnick from the New Yorker Now is he just a columnist or is he the higher up on the food chain? David Remnick took over the New Yorker and I think he's ruined the magazine because what he did was he brought in the millennials, they got rid of... and it's very noticeable in the cartoons.

1:07:08 They got rid of their long time, I think his name's Bob Manacow or something. He's long time cartoon editor and his type of cartoon choices were all classic New Yorker absurdist cartoon punchlines. And now he's running a cartoon collective of some sort, probably making more money than he's ever made before. But they got rid of him and they put in two millennial I think one of them is a woman, I think one of them is a guy, I can't tell their sexes. But they had a video of them once and the two are so unfunny and if anyone remembers the old show episodes where they had the vice president of comedy, this woman had no sense of humor. They're very humorless and the cartoons they pick are

1:07:54 are often baffling to anybody over 35 years old. And the remnick is not a positive force in society apparently. Well, he and Brian Stelter think a lot of themselves. Long story. Yeah, but they think a lot of themselves apparently. We've seen the Republicans stuck where they are. Their illusions about Trump remain, and you're right to describe it as a flatline. Here's what I hope that we understand. The stakes here are immense. It's not just about the political future of one man, Donald Trump. It's about the future of democracy and democratic process. And this is a trend throughout the world. It's about the future of the earth. We have a party that has decided to be disbelieving about climate change. It's about issues as essential as that.

1:08:54 And right now you have a country that is split. And to the great frustration of people like you and people like me, we don't somehow understand. We don't understand why the evidence of things, why facts don't penetrate so many of our brothers and sisters in the United States of America. And this is a source of great frustration for the press. You're talking about computer-generated facts? What are you talking about, facts? Listen to the tail end here, because this is where they get a little nutty about it. penetrate so many of our brothers and sisters in the United States of America. And this is a source of great, great frustration for the press. For the press. And for anybody who's thinking about these issues that are so important. It's so horrible for the press, you see. For the press. For the press. For the press. I mean, these are people like Remnick and others who run these magazines

1:09:56 I have real, their scientific background is minimal, if any. They have no understanding of computer modeling and what a farce it is in general. And they just buy into these things hook, line, and sinker. And it's embarrassing. And then they're humorless, which I think is reflected in the cartoons. And it becomes a nightmare for the culture. The New Yorkers, They still have good articles. They still have good writers that forced their stuff to go in there, but the generally speaking it's It's gonna fail because of Remnick well all largely all they need to do is just listen to Nancy Pelosi This is about science science science She know when she says it three times. You know it's gonna come true. Yeah, well she didn't say and science

1:10:47 I do have one last topper of the impeachment clips. We might as well listen to another madman. This is Ralph Nader, who by the way, thinks that Trump... I had to cut this down because he went on forever on a rant, but he includes in his rant that Trump should be impeached because he's a climate change denier. He's called for impeaching Trump for deliberately abetting the climate crisis, among other issues. His latest book, written with Mark Green, is titled Fake President.

1:11:25 decoding Trump's gaslighting, corruption, and general BS, except he spells it out. Welcome back to Democracy Now! So first respond to what is happening this week. It is historic. What do you think about the grounds on which— Hold up. Why was it okay for everyone to say shithole when the president apparently had said that, even though we don't know if he actually did? But then it's—we can't say bullshit? I mean, where's the line? Is that a problem because it's not the president or how does this work? You're asking me? Yeah.

1:12:02 I don't know. He spells it out. Welcome back to Democracy Now, Ralph. So, first, respond to what is happening this week. It is historic. What do you think about the grounds on which President Trump is about to be impeached? Far too narrow and perilous. If Nancy Pelosi wants to remove Donald Trump, she went on a very narrow base. She is clearly not supportive of impeachment generally. She took it off the table when it was proposed to her in 2007, impeachment of the war criminals George Bush and Dick Cheney. And she's come forward with a very narrow hand, a very narrow hand for the most impeachable president of all time.

1:12:52 The most impeachable of all time. All time best. We're number one. Foam finger number one. With that I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you the man who literally put the sea in Christmas spirit, John C. DeVore! Well in the morning to you Mr. Adam Curry, in the morning to all ships of sea, boots on the ground, feet in the air, subs in the water, and all the dames and knights out there. In the morning to all of our trolls! How many trolls do we have today? Let me see, it's the second day of Christmas in Europe.

It's good to have them there trolls are trolls We love them we can get him no agenda stream calm where you can hang out with all of your fellow trolls Poke fun at anything that's live or just chat and hang out And that is noagendastream.com. Also like to of course thank our executive producer for episode 1201. It was a special, it was John Storytime, David Orcutt, also known as Sir Rupin Waffles. And he was knighted for this incredible effort. Produced that for us. The artwork for the show came to us from Darren O'Neill, once again. He had already put it in the show before. He gets us. He understands our system.

1:14:11 He clearly knew we were going to be producing it before the actual show and he gave us a nice piece of album art with the best stories of John C. Dvorak compiled by David Orcutt. The whole production was seamless and I think a lot of people enjoyed it and had some good fun. And noagenderartgenerator.com is where you can find the artwork that Darren did, but also other artwork. And if you want, you can contribute yourself and get that onto the album art distributed wide around Gitmo Nation. And thank you once again, Darren, who does so much for the show and just keeps on kicking ass with the artwork.

1:14:52 We did have a these are two combined shows they did what you're gonna be read what i'm gonna be reading from here. So it's gonna be a little longer than normal but in fact if there were two shows that were. Normal shows it would be more than this. We just as the as the chat room troll room is down 20 to 25 percent that so was the donations and so I considered it You know, it was a good it worked out because we had Didn't do a show but Zachary McLean's at the top of the list with $1,200 and he says

1:15:28 1200 Norwegian krona for show 1200 most stable currency over the last 10 years. Need to deep dive on Tesla solar city scandal lawsuit and Tesla scam as a company. Yeah, I've been looking, is this the lawsuit about that their batteries catching fire everywhere? I don't know about that. Yeah, they're the big, it's the solar city batteries you put in your home. They've been catching on fire at Walmart. Burning a house down. I think Walmart has filed a suit against them because five of their stores caught fire because their batteries keep igniting. Best price.

1:16:09 I don't know what else to do with that. Now, does Zachary want anything? Does he want any karma? He says. That's so nice. Well, Zachary, thank you. And yes, the corona. If you have anything else you want to contribute, Zachary, in terms of call-outs or anything, send us a note. Or insta-nighting maybe, how about that? Does he want a knighthood? Let's take a look at the email. I don't think he's on the list. I've checked it twice. Maybe it's possible. No, I don't think so. Let me get their spelling correct. Nothing, right? I'm not seeing anything.

1:16:56 Well, Zachary, let us know and obviously a lot of gratitude and thanks going to you. Oh, wait, here it is. Here it is. Hey, he said something. Under Zach McLean. Well, if the pump comes up, I'll be a happy camper. Wink. This is, I'm on the wrong of the two versions of script. Oh, uh. Wow, this is really... He sends a screenshot. Yeah.

Wasn't sure of the deadline, he says. Okay. No worries. All right. Well, you did well, Zach. Sir Chris of the Carmel-by-the-Sea, 333.34.

1:17:49 ITM and Merry Christmas, the donation take the level of baronet but in the spirit of the Dame drive I would like to abdicate and carve out the funds, carve out of the funds of my last three donations to create a Damehood for my wife and love of my life, Kristen, who celebrates her 29th birthday on the 24th. Kristen will join the roundtable at as Dame Kristen of Carmel by the Sea. I think she's on the list. Yes, she is. Thanks for all the great media deconstructions and all and the best to you both and the whole No Agenda family in the new year. If we could get Jobs karma, it'd be great. Yes. Love and light. Absolutely. And we'll see your lady and Dame to be at the round table later. Fantastic. Jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's vote for jobs. You've got karma.

1:18:43 So we have a copy of War and Peace here from Baron D. H. Sir D. H. Slammer. Yes, he has a lot to say. I can't read it. I can read it. I can do it. I think I can probably wing through this. Let me see. In the morning, Duke and Dr. Gonzo. Jingo requests the full money shot jingo followed by dealers choice jobs karma I've got that never needed a deducing first and most importantly please find enclosed 333 3.33 from 333 33 from Baron sir dh slammer this donation makes master Emmett

1:19:21 Sir Emmet the cute one. He's getting he's bringing his whole family into this is great. Thus completes peerage for our entire family with dad Baron DH slammer mom Baroness bang bang daughter Dame Simona the pretty one oldest son Sir Andrew keeper of the mountains the smart one and last but definitely not least the youngest son age 6 Sir Emmet the cute one. Secondarily, a few episodes of the Best Podcast in the Universe ago, there was a potential peerage dispute between this distinguished, unassailable, long-standing baron, listener since 556 and donator since 559, and the recent anonymous instabaron who requested a questionable close protectorate, which their credit acknowledged could require peerage committee ruling. I can't believe you didn't take care of this, John. Why am I dealing with your peerage committee?

1:20:11 You're not dealing with anything. I have since communicated with the Anonymous Baron and posit to the peerage committee a perfect deal even though the Anonymous Insta Baron made an embarrassing error when geographically describing their proposed protectorate. The Insta Baron has been made aware of the errors exact nature and acknowledged their folly suffice to say words matter. Do you know what's going on here? Yeah. Well explain it. One of the guys came in and he specifically pointed out that D.H. Slammer and him had an overlaying, a couple of their baronies were overlaid and they didn't want to get into a, to solicit an army to get into a fight over this minuscule amount of land. Okay.

1:21:01 So what they've done is they, this minuscule part, as the baron of my potentially disputed realm I propose this deal to the Peerage Committee. I will retain in whole and unchanged my recognized good and rightful barony of the Central California coast Ventura to Santa Cruz and furthermore petition the Peerage Committee that the Insta-Baron shall be rightfully granted the protectorate which was meant to be requested, that of the Santa Ynez Valley, except for the area where the valley crosses into my long-since recognized territory. Santa Ynez. Yeah, okay, well, I'm just doing my best here. Keep going. Keep going. Yeah, I'm trying. Is that the end? No. I suggest

1:21:43 The same passage of... this is going to come to blows eventually. This doesn't have to be read. Well, why not? The same passage will likewise be afforded the Insta-Baron in my own protectorate as is standard and customary with no agenda nobility. I suggest this deal because the vast majority of the Insta-Baron's claim cannot reasonably be considered coastal by any sane nobility. Oh my goodness. Okay. He yields his remaining time. Well, I believe that the Santa Ynez Valley would be fine as a barony. Well, the good news is after all of this disputage of the peerage, we will have the young Sir Emmett at the roundtable and we're very excited about that and we'll see him later. And I'm gonna, well, he wanted a, what did he want here? He wanted a money shot.

1:22:36 I had a money shot. Yeah, money shot. And then what do you want? A dealer's choice jobs. Karma. Well, we got that. That's a show of money shot. Jesus. Look at that. That's a money shot. Kenny Conway is a money shot. Jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's vote for jobs. You've got karma. Onward to Chuck D. In Mesa, Arizona, 33333.

Our formula is this. We go out we hit people in the mouth All right, I want to actually pick it up where we left off we were kind of moving into a climate change

1:40:49 I'm not oh, I have the final report from COP 25 from Amy. Ah, this is perfect in Madrid Spain the COP 25 United Nations climate summit ended in failure Sunday after negotiators failed to agree to a deal that would limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius or 2.7 degrees Fahrenheit above pre-industrial levels a key goal of the Paris agreement Scores of civil society groups condemn governments in the European Union, Australia, Canada and the U.S. for blocking progress at the talks. Alden Meyer, strategy chief at the Union of Concerned Scientists, said, quote, never have I seen the almost total disconnect we've seen here at COP25 in Madrid between what the science requires and what the climate negotiations are delivering in terms of meaningful action.

1:41:39 Ian Fry, the climate negotiator for the Pacific Island nation of Tuvalu, whose existence is threatened by rising sea levels, called out the United States for watering down the final document, even though President Trump is withdrawing the U.S. from the Paris agreement. It's so disappointing. Amy was there. She followed everything. She was a part of COP25. She had her own studio set up. And she doesn't get any of the really big news. And there is... Well, can I mention something she said that has to be commented on? Sure. Which is somehow, even though we weren't even taking part in this, the United States was blamed. Yeah, well, because we didn't participate. That's how we get the blame. Yeah, it's because we didn't pony up. That's what it was. Yes, that's... Pony up. Hello? Pony up. That's called participation.

1:42:27 Well, I think she's missed a big one here. There's quite the scoop and we'll just report on it. The Dutch government was sued by a climate change group. they lost and this was in the highest court of the land and they have to achieve their 20s. Who's they? The Dutch government has to achieve. They lost? They lost yes the Dutch government lost in the highest court of the land that they have not done what they promised to do by 2020 for climate change. They have you know like four days, five days. You've got four days left? Yeah they have to reduce emissions by an additional 25% this week.

1:43:12 Okay, and but it's it's I mean this is a big deal This is how it's all going to start running and they're shutting shit down John that they're like okay the the the lower speed limit definitely indefinitely in effect They're going back to the farmers the farmers are coming out and protesting again They have lost a lawsuit and now they they are obliged to just cut wherever they can Hold on a second Now, was this lawsuit based on something the Dutch government said they'd do and didn't do? Yes, it was their climate goals. So in other words, the only country playing it safe is the United States? Of course.

1:43:52 Otherwise you're gonna get sued into oblivion. It's gonna happen everywhere. You said you were gonna cut the emissions and you didn't. We're suing you. It's gonna happen not just on a country scale. I believe we'll see these lawsuits in California. Maybe elsewhere, but California, the legislature there clearly made a lot of promises what they were going to do for emissions and climate change, combating climate change. I'm telling you this is this is a new thing. All the virtue signalers out there are subject to getting their asses sued because they didn't do crap, they just talked to big dick. Exactly. Nice. Meanwhile...

1:44:34 Good old Jane Fonda is still getting arrested every single Friday I've stopped reporting on her or media alerts because she's arrested every Friday. She goes out she gets arrested Vice magazine finally sat down with her for a quick little interview and well as you can imagine She's misguided every Friday Jane Fonda gets herself arrested on Capitol Hill is part of an ongoing climate protest with the group Fire Drill. — Well, you can call it radical. I think what's radical is not doing anything. We have to go out and make them do it. And we're just getting used to it. We're just beginning to work our muscles in the resistance sector, right? — Fonda has a long history in activism— and controversy. Like her infamous visit to Hanoi at the height of the Vietnam War, that she later apologized for.

1:45:25 At 81, Fonda is still trying to change the world. We detained her briefly to ask why. — Jane, thanks for joining us. — Thanks so much. — You're just out of jail again. What you're out there doing is what? I mean, the message is about climate change. I mean, with you, you've engaged in activism for five decades. — Well, this is the existential issue over all of the other issues. This is the looming, ticking time bomb, and we have to listen. to the scientists who say we have 11 years to do what has to happen and what has to happen is we have to stop all new fossil fuel extraction, no licensing, no permitting on public lands or waters.

1:46:08 And then we have to gradually phase out the existing extractions over 30 years and make sure that the workers that depend on the fossil fuel industry not only are trained for new jobs, but that those jobs are union jobs with good salaries and benefits that allow them to support a family. We will deny. The science is in. Science! Man, existential 11 more years. We're all going to die. 2050. And the thing is Jane Fonda is a fossil fuel. That's the only reason you ran that clip. No, not at all. You wrote that down. No, I just read that in the troll room. I gotta be honest. You stole it from one of our writers in the troll room. That's not stealing. Blitz did it. Karma for Blitz.

1:47:03 He wrote it just as I'm coming out of the clip. If I had called you out on it, you wouldn't have credited him. I'm sure of it. It would have been much slicker if you hadn't, you know, but okay, thanks. Appreciate it. Yeah. No, poor Jane. I don't know. She's lost. We got, uh, she's, uh, she's the way I see it. If anybody takes her seriously at this point, they're the ones that are nuts. I give her full credit for being 81 and being out there kicking, you know? She's not sitting around knitting. No, that's true. Which, by the way, supposedly is the number one thing, well actually there's two. Somebody pointed out there was a study done and the hobby, the number one hobby of millennials,

1:47:49 Apparently a lot of people thought was knitting and I don't really know any that knit But it turns out the number one hobby is guess what? The number one hobby of what Millennials are of everywhere of all time millennial women I don't know canning coloring books coloring books. I knew it was close to that coloring books well the the new czar of the Green Deal in the European Union France Timmermans who I'm very excited about him being part of this. He's my buddy and I'm gonna try and get an interview with him in the new year because he's a sales guy. Brown shoes, sells it, he'll sell anything. He doesn't give a shit and he'll do a really good job and what he wants is 250 billion every year from the 26 European member states. Everybody chip in. It's just 10 billion each. It's not that big a deal. He wrote a love letter to Britain regarding Brexit.

1:48:43 and it was published in Guardian and it's written as an op-ed but it's my love letter to Britain. Family ties can never really be severed. And he goes on this whole thing about how he will miss the UK so much, and it was kind of an adopted second country for him, and he went to school in British schools, and you've decided to leave. It breaks my heart, but I respect that decision. You were in two minds about it, like you have always been in two minds about the EU. I wish you had stuck to that attitude. It served you well and it kept us all in better shape. Was it necessary to force the issue? Not at all, but you did. And the sad thing is, I see it is hurting you. Because the two minds will still be there even after you've left. In the process so much unnecessary damage has been done to you and all of us, and I fear more will follow. Truth be told,

1:49:41 I felt deeply hurt when you decided to leave. Three years later, I am just sad that a member of our family wants to sever our ties. But at the same time, I find comfort in the thought that family ties can never really be severed. We're not going away, and you, yes you, Britain, will always be welcome to come back to us. That last part is bogus. Of course it is. Well, we'll see if they actually leave. I'm still not convinced. What's the latest? Well, the latest is they're leaving. They're battening the hatches as it were, getting ready to do it.

1:50:25 But as we have shown time and time again on this show in particular, it always comes down to, well, let's give two more months, let's give another month, let's give another six months, we'll do it in three months, we'll just put it off, what's it hurt now? Look, we've been putting it off this long, what does another six months matter? What I find interesting is the general narrative in the UK is that The media did this. The media made this happen. The media branded Corbyn as an anti-Semite. And I find this odd because the media was nothing but against Johnson.

1:51:12 They call him a buffoon, you know, floppy hair guy and pretty much the way Trump was run. Am I mistaken in this coverage? Have I not seen this? No, you're absolutely correct. So now, and I just pulled one quote because, yeah, it's Roger Waters, Pink Floyd, he's got a big mouth, he's always talking a big game, but just listen to how he explains this away. The past that may have B, sorry, have achieved such an incredibly efficient hatchet job on the poor man over the last few years and particularly over the last year that the chances of him ever doing anything really are extremely slim because he has been smeared beyond

1:51:52 all believe. It's becoming more and more apparent that propaganda is almost the most important thing in our lives and the fact that the mainstream media is owned by very rich and powerful people. And in consequence, it may be that they're coming close from close to controlling everything, not just all the elections, but everything. And obviously the elections they can't control. They send in the troops, you know, and start killing people. What's interesting to me is that here we are, what, 500 years since Columbus. Just now, this is the only thing that makes me

1:52:31 that gives me the strength to carry on in this fight. And it is this, 500 years later, it seems that we the people are just beginning to rise up now against the settler-colonial attitudes of the last 500 years. And that gives me heart. So it gets him hard, which is interesting. But it's confusing because yes, there is clearly an uprising But he populism yes exactly that's what that's what's happening, but somehow he sees that differently Is he just is he just well? He seems very odd, but this is this is the way a lot of people are seeing this guy's a multi-billionaire I don't know if he's doesn't mix with I don't know if Roger Waters is a billionaire, but okay I would be surprised if he wasn't after there after their home

1:53:30 Well, it depends. Money-making schemes including running Lloyd's of London to the point was called Floyd's of London. They were making a fortune. I didn't know this. What are you talking about? I don't know any of this. You didn't know her Floyd's of London? As in Pink Floyd's of London? Yeah. No, what's the story? They ended up owning most of Lloyd's of London at one point. Pink Floyd? It tanked, yeah. I thought that this was all like old peerage money and people who had to put up their castles. These guys were making lots of money in the heyday and they were continuing to make it. So how did they wind up owning it? I don't know how they, what the story is. This is some time ago. This is before the company went bankrupt. I mean, it's possible that their ownership or their part ownership of the company, they were investing in a lot of insurance deals because Voice of London isn't really an insurance company.

1:54:23 It's kind of an insurer that's that the investors come it's not like a venture capital company. They put packages together, the way venture capitalists put funds together, and they bring in all these outsiders and they put all the money into the fund, and then the fund does the insuring. And Lloyd's, apparently Pink Floyd was big ownership of a lot of these funds, to the point where it was called Floyd's of London. Oh crap, I gotta look into that. This is trivia I should have known. I feel inadequate. Well I thought you'd know because of the pun.

1:54:59 I've Lloyd's of London had never heard of this. No What I did hear about from multiple producers is something that happened on the Patriot Awards This past week. I didn't realize there was a category but the Patriot Awards I think is on the Fox Nation app and Or whatever Fox Nation. It's Fox. I never heard about it before this story either. Yeah, it's not a real TV channel So they had an award for I guess Patriot of whatever and Everyone that emailed me about this. Oh Brian Kilmeade said in the morning. He threw out an ITM. I'm like, yeah, okay So yeah, I heard that too. Did anyone get a clip? Yeah, so here's the ISO in the morning

1:55:44 Which I'm like, you know, the guy is on in the morning. It's like this is not, it's like, you know how many people... Well, you know, you have to have it in context. You just can't throw... I could clip out in the morning every so often. Yeah, I worked there. When were you working? I was working there. I was in the morning and there was blah blah blah. Yeah, it just doesn't mean what he's dropping in the morning. But listen to it in context and you might think differently. Good morning. By the way, you know we've been up a while. We all had to shave to get ready for this. We've been up since 2.30 in the morning. Not you. Right, including me. Yeah, not you. All right. So I'm going to do something we rarely do. I'm going to go back to the prompter in the morning. Hey, some common qualities shared amongst many patrons. I mean, what was that? I'm going to go back to the prompter in the morning. I mean, come on. OK, well, in context, it does sound like he dropped the end of morning bomb.

1:56:39 Alright, so I'm gonna do something we rarely do. I'm gonna go back to the prompter in the morning. Hey, some common qualities shared among... Was in the morning on the prompter? Was that why he picked it up there maybe? No, I don't think so. It's interesting though, isn't it? Well, in the morning to you Brian Kilmeade. So where's Brian Kilmeade? Who is this guy? He's a... I think he does the Fox Morning News Fox & Friends. And apparently he's a gigantic patriot. Well, he's a patriot if he listens to the No Agenda show. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. Exactly. Well, that's interesting. He'll get in touch with us if he actually dropped that bomb because he'll be listening to the show and he'll say, okay, yeah, you got me. Maybe. Or maybe not. I tell you, why don't we do, well, we haven't done one of these for a while. Oh, we're going to do the heavy metal version.

1:57:41 Today's Teddy Kaye. He's an OTG kind of guy. I gotta get those straight. Yeah, he's an OTG kind of guy. Well, that's not the jingle I wanted. What's the OTG jingle? Can never find that one offhand. I do have a couple of off-the-grid stories to talk about The first one you may have seen news reports over the past few days, over Christmas, about 23andMe and other very popular DNA ancestry heritage testing kits

1:58:17 which I have never done, I will never do it. I think we've been kind of smart. You haven't done this either, have you? I'm sure you haven't done this. Nah. Because what you hear is like, well, they're going to use it for this and then somehow your DNA got away and now the cops, they can issue warrants and they can get your DNA. And so it's just not a good idea to participate in this. I think we've been against this from day one. They're not even that accurate. And apparently the military is not allowed to do it at all. A stern warning tonight from the defense secretary, even though the companies are targeting military members with discounts and other incentives, stay away from these DNA kits because they could be putting you and the country at risk. A growing number of companies like 23andMe and Ancestry sell these kits that can profile consumers' DNA just by analyzing their saliva. They are hugely popular but pose a risk

1:59:14 for military members. The Defense Department saying the kits are not FDA approved and cannot be fully trusted. The Defense Secretary sent a warning letter to military members about these kits, saying there is growing concern that the companies are using the data for questionable purposes, including mass surveillance and the ability to track individuals without their authorization or awareness. So are these DNA kits bad for everyone? Absolutely not. the DoD says they do pose more risk to soldiers because soldiers must follow specific guidelines when disclosing medical information. Hmm. So that's a piece of bad publicity for this. These two operations. The Pentagon does not like him doing it at all. So what else is going on? No government cut. Yeah, well, that's possible. Possible. So just more fodder for the don't give up your DNA. It's not all that cute.

2:00:13 The Washington Post ran a long piece on this outfit called spotter edu s p o t t e r e d u you can find it, but spotter edu.com and what they're doing is they're rolling out a tracking networks all across campuses in the United States with Bluetooth beacons, Wi-Fi networks, and they are tracking attendance. Not just if students are in the classroom at the right time, even if they're two minutes late, that'll flag them.

2:00:48 They track the path to see if students who should be at study hall or in the library are in there long enough, where they go before, where they go afterwards. It connects into any university's student portfolio software. Yeah, exactly. First of all, before you can continue in a second, Any university that requires student attendance rigidly, like a high school does because they get state funds, you know, so the student has to show up so they get a certain amount of money from the state, is a rinky-dink school.

2:01:29 It's just a rink eating school. There's no reason, like a lecture hall or something, you show up when you wanna show up. You gotta take the test. It's the test that tell you whether you did a good job or you paid any attention or you read the right books. You don't show up to these classes rigidly. I will say I have been to, visited some schools where they do ring bells like idiots. Normal schools or normal good universities don't have that sort of structure. They don't have bells, you have to be there on time. and all your tardy, there's none of that. It's bullcrap. Well, this company... Unless you're in a rinky-dink school. The company, Spotter EDU, was set up by Rick Carter, former college basketball coach.

2:02:13 And it now works in 40 schools, including universities such as Auburn, Central Florida, Columbia, Indiana, and Missouri, as well as several smaller colleges and a public high school. More than 1.5 million student check-ins have been logged this year nationwide, including in graduate seminars and chapel services. Spotter EDU uses Bluetooth beacons roughly the size of a deck of cards to signal to a student's smartphone once a student steps within range. Installers stick them on walls and ceilings. The less visible, Carter said, the better. School officials give Spotter EDU the students full schedules. The system can email a professor or advisor automatically if a student skips class or walks in more than two minutes late. The app records a full timeline of students present so advisors can see whether they left early or stepped out for a break. It just goes on and on and on. It's a Chicago company.

2:03:11 It's also gamifying student schedules with colorful bitmoji or digital multi-day streaks. Oh, this is like your little complaint about the... Yep, about the Slackify and with emojis. With that one add-in that adds stars and stuff. As though everyone's a 10th to 10 year old. I mean, please. But wait. This is the problem that's going on. These kids are... Raised by helicopter parents and by the time they get to school, they have to be monitored or they, you know, I don't know, play hooky. I have no idea. I mean, you either go to school or you don't. When I was a kid at Cal, you'd have these big lecture, they have these lecture auditoriums and you'd go listen to some great, somebody who was actually famous give a speech and you didn't have to even go to it. You could just go by.

2:03:59 There was a company called Phibates and there was a note-taking company that would, if you say you didn't want to go to that class that day, you didn't want to listen to the lecture about something. And so you'd go buy the Phibates notes. They cost a dollar or two and you'd go to this note company and they'd give you, a professional note taker would go into the major classes and take professional level notes that you would never take and you just buy the notes from him and now you might as well have the lecture notes. You get the lecture notes for a fee and you're in business. This is the way it should be, not what they're doing here making it into a slave state. Carter, CEO, said the real value may be for school officials who can split students into groups such as students of color or out-of-state students for further review.

2:04:47 When asked why an official would want to segregate out data on students of color, Cartner-Carter said many colleges already do so, looking for patterns in academic retention and performance, adding that it can quote, provide important data for retention. Even the first few months of recorded data on class attendance and performance can help predict how likely a group of students is to stay enrolled. Here it comes. Students' attendance and tardiness are scored into a point system that some professors use for grading, and schools can use the data to take action against truant students, such as grabbing back scholarship funds. This is slave training to the max. And I would suggest you don't take a phone to school. Sorry, don't have one, can't track me.

2:05:42 Yeah, so this requires you have one of these phones that will, that the tracker triggers. Yeah, don't take a phone. Just don't use a phone. It's against my religion. Pastafarian religion. Well, this is, it's a very in-depth profile and I... That's disgusting. I mean, to me, this, yes, it is. To me, this is, it's un-American. It's like, it's like Chinese. It's like you're getting them ready, used to a score, will make you feel good with a bitmoji. Then if it's not as, yeah, and if it's not... I'm just saying, it's just totally just gross. And it's exactly like the Chinese social score. It's just a lead in, it's a lead in. It is. It's a primer, just getting you ready for it, getting ready for the real world. By the time you're out, we'll have it everywhere. In fact, such as California, we talked about the smart city sidewalk, the smart streetlights.

2:06:38 The great piece that came in, I think it was a local news piece, I believe it's, I think it's San Diego. They installed the... smart streetlights, which initially was, oh it's going to be LEDs and it'll be better to see, and then it turned out they put some cameras in there. And now just listen to how far we've gotten since these original smart streetlights were implemented and what the tracking is today. Police are calling them a game changer, but critics are saying it takes police surveillance too far. Three years ago, the city of San Diego approved installing smart streetlights throughout the city.

2:07:14 Initially described as a cost savings plan to replace old lights with energy efficient LED lights, it was later revealed that the lights would include data gathering technology, including cameras. Officials described it as the world's largest smart city sensor platform. Around 3,000 of the lights are spread throughout the city, gathering information about traffic, parking, and environmental conditions. Police say the lights are also a powerful aid in solving crime, capturing videos of crimes in action and the suspects. Officers say they use the cameras very sparingly only for the worst types of cases or serious or fatal collisions.

2:07:49 We really noticed the big differences in some of the fatal car accidents, serious accidents, but we can definitively show who ran that red light, who was responsible for the collision, and then hold them accountable. In the case of a recent hit and run, police were able to use smart light footage to see the vehicle pull into a nearby gas station. After releasing surveillance footage of the vehicle and the suspect, they were able to identify him. Police say there's no live monitoring of the footage captured by the cameras, saying the footage disappears after five days if not retrieved. Critics, however, argue greater public safety shouldn't come with less privacy. Some are saying the cameras intrude into private life, saying there's a lack of oversight and possible data security issues. Groups are pushing back against the lights, calling for ordinances that include policies for oversight and public discourse, saying the police shouldn't be the ones policing themselves. A watchdog group recently filed a suit in the city for not releasing data collected through the lights, saying the city illegally failed to disclose public records requested by the group.

2:08:46 The group filed several requests asking for source data for all smart lights over a 24-hour period. Police say the public has no access to the footage captured by the cameras, but has turned over the data to outside entities, including Harbor Police, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, and the FBI. What kind of country are we living in? This is insane. This is terrible. Yeah. It's one story after another. It's coming to your town and people are just, oh, okay. Just as they're disengaged from, uh, from impeachment. The only thing people kind of care about is, hey man I gotta get Ring doorbells so that I can see if my kids come home too late or if there's a porch pirate. That's really cool and then those get hacked. Which by the way Ring is now admitting that I think 3,600 accounts may have been compromised by a partner

2:09:43 Well, you know, the Porsche pirate thing is another issue. I mean, and I would say this, and this has to do with the district attorneys around the country that have been planted by the liberals, the Soros groups, they put these people in that will not prosecute anything. And so the police are just stuck. They can't do anything. Glitter bomb guy one of these famous youtuber who's in his second season Has got a new glitter bomb he sets up and he blows up glitter and then he has an announcement that comes through and he They throw the thing away because he's got a bunch of phones in it and he's he started doing this and people can look up glitter bomb YouTube I just need to say something about this. I mentioned this briefly on the previous show his new glitter bomb

2:10:32 I didn't find it as good as the original and it's also completely sponsored by Bose. So it's a little irritating now. Okay, the whole the whole box and everything is my point is whether it's good or not I'm reviewing him and reviewing this what got him started which I believe he was sincere in that he had K a Ring doorbell or something and he had captured. Yeah, somebody's stealing a package from him a couple of two three years ago And he went to the police with it. They said we can't do anything about it. They didn't even try no, I to capture the person that did this and this harkens back to early days of some computer hacking, whereas I remember this story, this was at least a decade ago,

2:11:17 where some guy was hacked and he had some nerdy kid in Minnesota had been harassing him and his computer cracked it somehow. He was in the machine and making his life miserable and he found, tracked the kid down, found out who he was, turned it over to the FBI and the FBI didn't do anything about it despite the fact that it was a computer crime. So there is selective enforcement going on in this country which is as much of a problem as anything else is crime itself Selective enforcement and so the glitter bomb guy was irked by the fact that the cops didn't even care about this. They could get somebody dead to rights and they wouldn't do anything. They have him on, he has them on tape. Here he is stealing my stuff. You can't do anything? No. Very disturbing. Yeah, it's that $950 rule that's being implemented everywhere. Yeah. That's exactly what's going on. Oh, it's a crime of need. Okay.

2:12:11 Nobody needs to steal my unopened package. They don't even know what it is. Why would they need it? Yeah, well, that's... You're right. This is the district attorneys and lovingly we call them the Soros sisters. As George Soros has poured a lot of money into these district attorney races, particularly for women, particularly for black women. Kamala Harris, one of them, and the one in Chicago. I mean, it's... and why? I mean, what is the point? How can this be good? That's the point. It's not good. Soros is a bad guy. Yes, from the OTG we move to yet another no-agenda favorite, which is the pipelines.

2:13:10 I have a little, yeah, it's a little pipeline update. Now you know President Trump of course is a puppet of Putin and does anything he can to remove sanctions. An agent. Yes, he's a Russian agent. He does everything he can to remove sanctions, to make it as easy as possible for Russia to do anything they want to do, obviously. We all understand this. Except when it comes to the Nord Stream 2. And the Nord Stream 2 pipeline is a very important pipeline that will eventually come into Europe. Interestingly enough, it's Norway that still has to sign off on a major piece.

2:13:50 to ratify it because it's running offshore and it's a gas pipeline from Russia and it goes into Europe. I think it drops into Germany. It won't be the first one. There is the Nord Stream 1 and it's a fine collaboration with I think Exxon is in there, BP is in there, and of course Gazprom owns the majority of it. But interestingly, in the most recently signed NDAA, the National Defense Authorization Act, There is a very strict set of sanctions against any company or country that participates in helping Russia with the Nord Stream 2 pipeline. In fact, Ted Cruz made a promo video about it. Nord Stream 2 pipeline is owned by Russian energy concern Gazprom. The gas it carries is also Gazprom's.

2:14:45 The pipeline is almost ready. The plan is for the 1,200 kilometer long pipeline to transport an additional 55 billion cubic meters of Russian gas directly to Germany. This project will make Germany and Europe in general more dependent on Russian gas. Nord Stream 2, if completed, would help Russia strengthen Putin. It would generate billions of dollars that could be used to fuel Russian aggression. Our window for getting this done is rapidly shrinking. The current projections are the pipeline will be completed by January. Which means we have maybe two months to get this done, and if we fail to get it done, we will have vastly strengthened Putin's hands at the expense of the rest of the free world. I introduced bipartisan legislation to stop Nord Stream 2. The Senate Foreign Relations Committee passed it with overwhelming bipartisan support by a vote of 20 to 2. Time is running out for the United States to act.

2:15:48 Scary music Ted Cruz. So Nord Stream 2, the sanctions were put in, the NDAAs passed and here's Deutsche Welle from Germany explaining what that means to the United States, to our energy initiatives and to Europe, Germany and of course Russia. For some more analysis now I'm joined by Claudia Kemfert, energy expert at the German Institute for Economic Research. Good to have you with us. Please tell us how serious are these sanctions? How will they impact the project? Well, these sanctions are serious but the impact depends when the sanctions really come because if the president signed it, it might be beginning of next year so that the project might be already finished. So I don't think the project is stopped

2:16:34 now. It might be a little bit postponed, but it's a signal and I think this kind of signal the US president wants to give to Germany and to Europe. And what is the signal? What is he trying to tell us? Yeah, he's trying to tell us that he wants to sell his fracking gas to Europe and to Germany. It's simply like that. It's a fossil fuel war where we are in between right now and we show the The president of the United States shows it to the world on different kind of angles in Arabia, but now also in Europe and Germany. And I mean, the pipeline has some criticism because it's very expensive. We don't need it because the gas demand will decline. But nevertheless, the US sanctions are simply because they want to sell their fracking gas to Germany.

2:17:19 the much quoted political motivation is not the main driver here you say? It's also political but it's mainly economic driver because the US wants to frack their gas, it's very expensive, they want to get new demand for it and that's coming from Europe because it's so expensive but on the other hand of course in Europe we have just signed this green deal that means that the emissions will go down and fossil gas, or the demand for fossil gas will decline in the future so that we don't need more pipelines like this we need more flexibility more LNG terminals but nevertheless the US is right in criticism but they simply want to sell their fricking gas. Yeah, as an agent of Putin well done!

2:18:02 You won't hear this reported anywhere and this is actually what matters. This is, this is something, Poland's a part of Trump's energy initiatives. They're going to take liquid natural gas from us which we're shipping over. Anything to block Russia from selling their gas into Europe. Europe is the customer. Russia has been the supplier. We're all over this yet somehow, I don't know, I guess it's like yeah, we don't get here anything like this. Well, I have a report that actually has an element of the pipeline problem. And this is something you don't know anything about, which is what's going on in Libya. Oh yeah, Turkey's doing some shit now with Libya. I think well, this is the best report I could find. And the only way you could find it was really going off the grid to Al Jazeera. Oh yeah.

2:18:58 to find somebody who... and then you find the weird bedfellows in this report which come out at the end and it becomes incredibly weird... I said weird again but it becomes bizarre. Well, Turkey and the GNA signed security agreements last month. Under those deals Ankara agreed to give training and equipment to the Libyan military and supply a quick reaction force if Tripoli asks for it. A separate agreement on maritime boundaries was also signed and that's angered Greece and raised concerns among several Mediterranean countries. Tensions had already been running high between Athens and Ankara over drilling for natural gas off the coast of the divided island of Cyprus. Greece says the accord violates international law. Turkey rejects that accusation saying it's protecting its rights in the eastern Mediterranean.

2:19:52 Now, Libya's warring sides are backed by different countries which provide them with military supplies despite a UN arms embargo. The United Nations recognized government led by Prime Minister Faiza Sarraj is backed by most Western nations as well as Qatar and Turkey. The government of National Accord or GNA as we've mentioned is based in the capital Tripoli, that's in the West. Now in the east of Libya, the parliament based in Tobruk is Khalifa Haftar's center of power. He's supported by Egypt, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and France.

2:20:27 He gets military equipment from different sides. Russian private security forces from the Wagner Group have allegedly been fighting alongside Haftar's forces. Wow, I mean I read some of this this morning about Turkey's involvement in Libya. What is going on? I mean what is the play here? Well when you look at the map they show the two sides, the western side which is the Tripoli and the recognized government and then the eastern side which has got strange bedfellows of France, Russia, Saudi Arabia and half the other Emirates. Meanwhile Qatar is over on the on the Tripoli side and so this these these sides are lined up and if you get

2:21:15 dig deeper, it turns out that all have something to do with natural gas pipelines, oil, who knows? But it's ludicrous what's happening. And all this with the background, meanwhile, all we hear about is global warming and we got to do this, we got to do that. And we were talking about billions and billions of dollars of more natural gas and more fossil fuels going into the economies of If you look outside the window or just look around your house, we are fossil fuel societies. We're fossil fuel civilizations. The paint, the gas in the stove, the electricity, everything comes from fossil fuels. Plastic, anything plastic. Plastics. Plastic, plastics.

2:22:00 And so you have this action going on all over the world that is kind of in denial of... well, it's not in denial. We're in denial. So are they rolling a pipeline from Libya to Turkey? That would make a lot of sense. There's pipelines involved, there's also drilling involved, and there's also Cyprus involved, Greece is involved. I mean, this is ridiculous. You got Gazprom involved and Total involved, you got Shell involved, you got Cutter and their gas company. Meanwhile, what is the news report on? Greta. I mean this is real shit going on here. How dumb are people to not be paying attention to real stories and they're just following this 16 year old and impeachment that seems to be all we have in the United States for stories. I'm gonna show my support by donating to No Agenda. Imagine all the people who could do that. Oh yeah that'd be fab.

2:22:59 Now we do have a few people to thank for show 1121 and 1122 what whoa whoa whoa whoa 1201 1201 to this way said okay not even close but all right I'm only off by a hundred yeah what's your problem well we lost a bit they were off a couple of hundred on our chat room It's just reflective. Starting with Ian Field in the UK, $100, he's at the top of the list. Robert Smiley, Sir Robert of Sous Vide in Holland, Pennsylvania, 8008. And he has a birthday shout out for his wife, Debbie, and she will be on the list. Chris Dyster, I think, Dyster in Brookline, Massachusetts, that's 75. But that's for his hot wife, Dr. 3D of Brookline.

2:23:55 Dr. 3d send pictures, uh, especially the 3d part. Yeah, gary blatt 66.60 Uh surveillance surveillance 62 sir baron white knight of the rainbow nation 6125 that's sir. Brian and uh, He wishes himself a happy birthday on the list. Yes, sir. Brian. He used to be a contributor to the show Which reports are not mistaken rob michael roberts in milwaukee oregon really that's funny been on and i never knew those milwaukee oregon sixty dollars harry van ryan in nordvik nordvik nordvik

2:24:44 Nord... is ZH, which is... Zuid-Holland, the South of Holland. Wait a minute, let me read this. Yes, John, he says, I was a big fan of the Curry and Van Inkel show. Oh, check, Adam is a radio cult hero in the Netherlands. Yeah, I know that. Equals poverty. I lost track of Adam until this summer when I was attending a surf legend reunion in Noordwijk in the Netherlands. I met Sir Eric the Knight Throne Knight? Hmm. He told me about the No Agenda show. Since then I've never missed a show. I don't need a deducing because surfers are no douchebags by nature. I'm still confused when I hear Nancy Pelosi for jobs karma. All the time I hear tax, tax, tax. Let's go for more tax. Ha ha ha. Harivarain, Palm Beach is snowbird location. Thanks, Harry. Welcome to the No Agenda family. Good to have you here. Appreciate it. Yeah, it's fun.

2:25:40 Stas Gomberg 5510 double nickels on the dime. Sir Uker, Monroe, North Carolina 5510. Axel Paul, yeah, sounds right. 55, Sir Phenom in Appleton, Wisconsin. Axel Paul's 55, Sir Phenom's 53, 33. T. Tarson, 51, 50 in Clovis, New Mexico. Forrest Martin, 50, 05. Lauren jackson in london barry new hampshire fifty oh one the following by the way is a short list is pretty much this show in this for two shows this is a short list for two shows especially which represents cold in our sock, we got a lump of cold cold like a tangerine in the tow.

2:26:35 We got a lump of coal. Joe, these are $50 donors, name and location, Joe Winky. Yeah, Jambo Joe, always there to help. Jambo Joe, Jambo Joe, our best guy. He's a knight, Sir Jambo Joe.

Thomas in shawnee oklahoma robert soren and no i guess in nuneheim netherlands.

2:27:18 Robert Kate Robert wait wait Robert also said he needs to be deduced badly because I listened too long without contributing to the show the shame is killing me You've been deduced Robert that's Robert Saurin in noon Harper Saurin and new noon I'm 50 Robert case and Millspring, North Carolina Andy No, no, no, is it Nauli, Nauli, Nuli, Nuli and Nauli? Nauli, Nauli, Nauli, Nauli. Nauli, yeah, Robert, Daniel LaBoi, who was a knight, I believe, sorry, Daniel, Julian Robbins in Aptos, California, Simon Elisha, Will, in Elsterwick, Victoria, Australia.

2:28:05 Will West in Peoria, Arizona. Strange towns in the wrong states. Michael Coffman in Hillsborough, Oregon. That's correct. Jesus Allen in Austin, Texas. Megan Carlotta Purdy in Galloway, Ohio. That's it. That's our list. I will mention that I did not get the mail. For today's show so there's probably a few checks missing which will come up on sunday because the post office closed before i got there on sunday. Wait i hate it when that happens so i went there and they were sorry sucker and they close the door and they gave me the they didn't give me the finger but they.

2:28:46 I like the image of it. Megan Carlotta Purdy says in her note, by the way, this is a Christmas gift from my dad who loves the podcast. I do too. Could you please mention his name? Rick Carlotta would be grateful. Thank you very much. I went to the PO Box and I did pick up, I was on time, and I just wanted to mention a few items that I appreciated. PO Box 18209, Austin, Texas, 78760 from Sir Woody of the Falls. You know those tags, the red tags that says remove before flight? And it's typically on an aircraft, it's on a pitot tube. You've seen them and people have them as tags on their baggage or their backpack as a joke, you know, remove before flight. Have you seen them? No? No. Well, for those who know what I'm talking about, he gave me a bag filled of exactly the same only instead of remove before flight, it says remove before pew-pew.

2:29:41 I thought that was a nice gift, a pew pew gift. Got my Century City copy that was indeed our 12th anniversary write-up, wasn't it? The paper version, that was nice. That was nice to get that. Who sent that to us? Our producer. Very good piece. Who did that for us. Then I have a, what is this? Thank you Chris Engler for the beautiful card. The Keeper and I got two beautiful books, Extreme Privacy, What it Takes to Disappear in America, which was given to us by Sir Timothy of No Fixed Title, and he also gave us the book Generation X, a groundbreaking novel, which he said actually helped him quite a bit in figuring out what was going on in his life, him being a Gen Xer. And then I, did you get the United Federation of Podcasters stationery?

2:30:36 No, I did not. Oh my goodness, JD, Anymouse from Mach Zero made the United Federation of Podcasters letterhead, beautiful paper, and you have to see it to believe it because it's, I mean, it really puts podcasters in the standing where they belong. Behind the cop kicking someone out of the way and two obvious hookers who are on each arm of the podcaster so nice That's what I thought yeah, I'll send you a note with the jump and get that to you as soon as possible Had a couple of extraneous things we needed. Yes got a note from

2:31:22 Chris McGinn, one of the four horsemen of the Worcester, Massachusetts meetup. Merry Christmas Adam and John. On the last episode you read a note from an educator who made a point to tell you he was going to stop donating five dollars a month. I'm a dude named Ben for a school district who also donates $5 monthly. I'm not a teacher, only a mere sysadmin. As a tech in education, I can tell you that teachers who teach tech are some of the most un-tech savvy people you'll ever meet. All book smarts and no real-world technical knowledge. They are first to call when something breaks or the network hiccups, having done no preliminary troubleshooting and expecting it to be fixed yesterday. I write all this not to talk smack, but instead to say I will be upping my monthly donation to $10 a month in order to make up for his overboard educator with an axe to grind. Plus, I really want to reach knighthood before your exit strategy kicks into high gear.

2:32:16 No worries there my friend. You'll be granted. I'm reminded of one of these educators I was giving a talk somewhere, a speech or a keynote or something. But meanwhile there are all these little, you know, these smaller speeches being given here and there. You know, you've been to these events, conventions. And there's the smaller events sometimes, some are popular, some aren't. I went to listen to one guy who was this educator going on. He makes the comment, he says, he says, and then there's great display technologies, LCD, which means light emitting diode. And so afterwards I went up to him and said, you should note that your LCD means liquid crystal display. LED is light emitting diode. And he says, hey,

2:33:01 Don't tell me what I'm doing. Ah, f***! DOOSHBAG! That's what he says to me! Yeah, that's great. Well, not all educators are douchebags, obviously, but from time to time we get one that sticks out and we appreciate being stuck up for by our dude named Ben there. But we do have a lot of great educators who are doing phenomenal work and we appreciate that. We know that they get ideas from this show to teach their kids. Corrupting an entire generation. I'm so sorry trying to do so proud then a note from Jason the protector of the big house I'm writing as a longtime knight and weekly producer. I was laid off from my job last week. Yes, the company I work for that always claims that as a mutual insurance company it isn't for the profits laid off a bunch of people the week before Christmas. What a bunch of douchebags. He would like some jobs karma for the protector of the big house and of course we'll do that for him. Jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's vote for jobs.

2:34:05 You've got karma. It helps a lot and it's really appreciated. I want you to know that. We don't mention those for brevity of the program, but also a lot of people like to remain anonymous. But if you'd like to support us in that manner or any other way for our upcoming show, the last one of the year, just go to our donation website. All the kids love the jingle. Dvorak.org slash N A.

2:34:45 It's your birthday, birthday, on Showbiz Channel. Yes, it is the 26th of December, 2019. Here's our birthday list. Sir Brian turned 61 yesterday. Sir Chris Carmel by the sea. It's his happy birthday to his wife, Kristen. She's turned 29th on Christmas Eve. Sir Robert of Sous Vide says happy birthday to his wife Debbie. She celebrated on Christmas Day. Sir Brian White Knight in the Rainbow Nation, it was his birthday. And finally on December 19th, belated happy birthday to Lauren Jackson. Happy birthday from everybody here at the best podcast in the universe.

2:35:24 Sir John, overall night runner, has a title change thanks to another $1,000 of support to the No Agenda show and he now becomes baronet Sir Rogue of the Taverns. with a real title change there. Congratulations on that. And why don't you hang around, Sir John? Because we're going to induct a number of people into the round table of the No Agenda Knights and Dames. We've got one dame, four knights. Let's get the... Ow! Let's get the blades first. Here's mine. I almost hurt myself on that one. Thank you. Up on the podium, please! Michael Snyder, George Woochit,

Go to noagendameetups.com to find out where you can attend the meetup near you. And if there isn't one, well, for God's sake, man or woman, go and create one. That's what it's all about. noagendameetups.com. Okay. Good rap. Well, you know, you kind of threw down a challenge to me.

2:39:19 Yeah, I was talking about Space Force and wireless power. Wireless power and you immediately just poo-pooed it and played an Alex Jones clip which kind of pissed me off for a few days like what? He wouldn't that was a great clip. Yeah, but it was misplaced where I'm doing I'm doing my space force Power from space and then you have to you took it away from us took it away from me. So I'd like to introduce you to tech zone Tech is on is a company that will not be providing wireless power from space

2:39:56 But they will be providing wireless power. Is this that outfit down in Texas that's got that big antenna? No. The giant thing you drive by it on the freeway? That is a different company. They basically built the Tesla Tower. If you drive by it, it looks just like Tesla's tower. Yeah, your hair stands on end when you go by. No, it doesn't. I've been there. No, it does not. It's a similar... Well, they claim to be using the similar technique. I don't know much about that company other than it's a very quiet black box. This one was actually at the New Power Symposium where they were... Is it spelled N-U? N-U, yeah, New Power, where they were selling their wares and they utilized the same Zennec wave technique to broadcast power

2:40:47 to anywhere in the world. I have three short clips. We'll start with the understanding of this zenith wave, which is somewhat like radio frequencies. Zenith is Z-E-N-N-E-C-K and this of course is closely related to the work that Tesla was doing. The idea is it's a wave that goes around the Earth. It's a ground wave, not something that comes from the sky, but they say it will work. You do think differently in this. It is radio frequency. But it is a different waveform. It follows the Zinnig waveform, which was done by a German physicist in 1907. And so the theory about it and the math and the physics has existed since they were doing those type of studies in the early 1900s. It just now has been

2:41:38 been developed so that the wave can be launched which was the most difficult part was launching a zenith wave over the earth. I wish I had gotten a memo that they were launching the wave which apparently happened in 2003. They actually first launched... What? You know, it needs a little thing, you stick it in the ground and boom, you got your power for your house. That's the idea. They actually first launched the wave on the earth in 2003. And so they've been working since that time period, perfecting it, doing tests, making sure that they had what they

2:42:16 they had the wave in a way that it could be utilized. The power component is one aspect of the breakthrough. Just like the first wireless was radio, but it's the same concept that radio has all the way from television to satellite communications to wireless internet. All are on that technology and on that waveform. This waveform will have as many iterations of technologies that reside off of it, one of those being the transfer of power and commercial-grade power over any distance. So they're doing this at somewhere around 100 hertz, which is pretty low on the band.

2:43:04 They don't have any kits I can test it out with yet, but I can't wait to I've signed up for everything and the first question I had obviously And of course this has nothing to do with 5g because it's at a much much higher frequency But if we have wireless power in this zenith wave bopping around the earth won't it fry us No, it has it's very safe. It's actually more safe than this then the current standards. The current standards are 90% greater than what this will generate in terms of RF frequency which is how they measure the health and safety standards with respect to RF. I mean the Sun is the biggest contributor to RF frequency anywhere. It dwarfs everything else and that is what the standards are set off has to do with the Sun. So when we're talking about where we're going to be in that

2:44:02 that component of RF exposure, we're way below the current standards that exist. So there really isn't any safety concerns. There's no shock hazard. There's none of the other things that would come as you would think of with electricity in the way this is being used. transported from the generation source to the receiving source. Once you reconvert it into power, then you have all your electrical issues of shock and those things. But those are all current things that you deal with in the substations and delivery from the point to your house anyway. So this is just my beat. I'm not saying I'm all in. And Sir Bemrose, you can calm down.

2:44:43 Bimro's in the chat room. This is bullshit. This is the new Theranos. This is no good. Calm down, man. It's just a couple of clips. I like yours. Will it cook the gophers? You're right. That's the only thing that matters. But I'm going to stay on it. There's multiple companies. As far as I know, no one has produced anything that actually works. And this video is kind of cool. you know, this is the CEO being interviewed and then behind him, he's just kind of like some Arab looking dude. Have you ever seen these interviews? You know, he's clearly involved in the company, just kind of walks up behind him and he's got his collar unbuttoned, you know, clearly gangster type guys. But the Zenek wave is interesting and the concept has been around for a long time. Curiously, the invention of it is around the same time that modern monetary theory was invented.

2:45:41 In what, in 19, 2000, no. He said 1907. Yeah, is that when modern monetary theory was invented? Pretty much. Well it took a long time for it to go mainstream now didn't it? Well it hasn't really gone mainstream yet. Well, but it's getting there. In fact, it may be underway as we speak, which might be the one of the reasons the economy looks like it's doing well. I did want to get back to the other, back to the pipeline thing, because I had one more clip about the pipelines. Or maybe not, it's about, maybe it's not about the pipelines, but I'd like you to tell me what do you think is going on here with another

2:46:20 story that nobody knows about. They did know about it on Democracy Now! and this is the pulling out of Africa story. The New York Times reports the Pentagon is considering withdrawing many if not all of the US troops stationed in West Africa. The potential pullout could include withdrawing US troops from a newly built drone base in Niger and ending US support for French forces fighting in Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso. The shift could be announced as early as January. It's part of Defense Secretary Mark Esper's efforts to shift away from the United States post 9-11 war on terror. There are currently six to seven thousand US troops deployed across Africa. Huh. Yeah, that's what I said. Exactly the same thing. What do you make of it? What do you think? What do you make of this? Well, either they're gonna do something to kill off all the Africans in West Africa and they want to... Well, besides the obvious.

2:47:17 Get out of there. Or the other thing is there may be the previous story about Libya and the fact that France has taken the side of Russia and Saudi Arabia and all these other countries in this little dispute in Libya. And now we're bailing out from helping France. Maybe something going on there. Yes, yes. Stuff is afoot. Stuff is afoot that nobody is looking at. Moves are being made. They're too preoccupied with impeaching Trump and Greta. Yeah, wasn't much better in the EU actually. But more Greta and less Trump. No one cared. Europe doesn't even care anymore.

2:47:54 They don't get it. They're like, well, did he is he kicked out? When is he and no one knows no one really is Pence running the country? Yeah, right What are these people gonna think about in mid-year like July of next year when Trump is you know still on the news? He's still the president against they're gonna what are they gonna be thinking? It's just like their minds are gonna be blown No We've been tracking this for quite a while. Dogs are people too. We know it, you know it, it's just a fact and we'll do anything to treat them like people. Her family says Sophie has a heart of gold and now she also has a heart that's making history. She's just a joy. It was love at first sight. But their love story was suddenly threatened when the nine-year-old boxer fainted. We were told that even with medicine

2:48:46 There's a high risk of a sudden death. Karen Cordelino learned her beloved rescue had an arrhythmia, the same kind of erratic heartbeat also diagnosed in people. She had arythmogenic right matricular cardiomyopathy. Dr. Anna Gelzer, a cardiologist at PenVet, figured the human treatment could also work for dogs. Sophie was the first case where we've tried to ablate a ventricular tachycardia. For that, they turned to colleagues at Penn Medicine, where human heart patients are treated. We were able to use the exact same equipment. When she explained to us that Sophie was going to have this procedure at the human hospital, at HUP,

2:49:26 I couldn't believe it. High-tech mapping helped guide the ablation, but it was still the first of its kind on a dog. Were you nervous? Very nervous. We're fortunate that things went smoothly. Karen says Sophie was pretty quickly back to normal. The human intervention saving her dog's life. It's amazing. It's just completely amazing. Did this crack reporter give us any indication of what this procedure cost? No. Or was it a pro bono for the dog? I have no idea. But the dogs are people too, man. We just give them an open heart surgery, transplant, whatever it needs. You need new kidneys, we'll do it for you. Apparently the equipment is ready for them.

2:50:18 I got another real story. All right, this will have to be it. Okay, well, this is the one another story is not being told and I don't even know democracy now didn't get a little more into it. But I think it has to do with the fact that nobody wants to admit that Trudeau is not what he seems. Trudeau's like a guy who presents himself one way as this very soft-spoken, kind guy. On the other hand, and it's been coming out more and more, I think he hates the natives, the native Canadians, the indigenous peoples of Canada. I think he probably tells dirty jokes and sexist jokes behind the scenes, which he gets big laughs. And he's just not the right normal guy because otherwise this story

2:51:03 This story would not be in the news at all. And this is the story Canadian Mounties preparing to kill Indians. In Canada, indigenous communities are condemning the Canadian government after it was revealed the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. prepared for the potential use of lethal force against Indigenous land defenders resisting the construction of a natural gas pipeline on the Wet'suwet'en Nation's ancestral land in British Columbia. The Guardian first revealed the documents in which commanders of Canada's National Police Force argued, quote, lethal overwatch is required.

2:51:42 A term for deploying snipers. The preparations came ahead of a police raid last January against a protest encampment where Indigenous groups have been fighting the coastal gas link pipeline. In response to the revelations, the Grand Chief of the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs in Canada said, quote, this form of state violence is happening to Indigenous peoples around the world. heartening to know that even in Canada, this same type of planned violence is still being considered against First Nations." And there's your happy end of show story. I don't think that's a very happy end of show story at all. Luckily, I have nothing better, so we'll just have to leave it at that. But you, you, you, producer out there, thank you for putting together a fine

2:52:35 deconstruction on this boxing day when everybody else is doing pre-canned retrospectives of bullcrap we're here breaking down the best of our ability and that's because we do it with thousands of people. Yes, because we're working and they're all on vacation. Well there's that. End of show mixes.
