About this episode

Dr. Deborah Birx faces a swift media backlash after praising President Donald Trump’s data-driven approach during a Christian Broadcast Network interview. The fallout coincides with a massive downward revision of the Imperial College COVID-19 model, where Neil Ferguson slashed projected UK deaths from 500,000 to 20,000. These shifting metrics raise urgent questions about the transparency of the data used to justify national lockdowns across the United States and Great Britain.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi accused the White House of deadly denial on CNN, while reports from Sinclair Broadcasting suggest the CDC may have intentionally misled HHS Secretary Alex Azar regarding diagnostic test development. In the financial sector, BlackRock is now managing Federal Reserve assets, signaling a potential nationalization of the central bank as the US dollar crushes the British pound and Russian ruble. Meanwhile, Poland has mandated a quarantine app requiring random selfies, and UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres calls for a temporary global government to manage the pandemic response. Attorney General William Barr also unsealed narco-terrorism indictments against Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro, offering a $15 million reward for his arrest.

Bob Dylan released a 16-minute epic titled Murder Most Foul, sparking theories about the declassification of JFK assassination files. John C. Dvorak shares brisket-cooking insights from Aaron Franklin while Adam Curry analyzes the neuro-linguistic programming behind the phrase social distancing. The episode concludes with a look at Dr. Birx’s scarf knots and a South Korean report on antibody wristbands.

No Agenda Episode 1229, Transportation and Infrastructure Appreciation

Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak open episode 1229 of the No Agenda show on March 29, 2020, broadcasting from Austin, Texas, and Silicon Valley. They discuss the status of the Zephyr train and express gratitude toward truck drivers and IT professionals maintaining internet bandwidth during the early COVID-19 lockdowns. The hosts introduce the theme of the episode as "Counting Masks."

00:00 Oh yeah, they told us to be inside and they're not. Adam Curry John C Devorah It's Sunday March 29 2020 This is your award winning Gitmo Nation Media Assassination Episode 1229 This is no agenda Counting masks and broadcasting live from Opportunity Zone 33 here at 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 there's a ventilator going down the road. I'm John C DeVore is Craig Vaughn Boskill I was a Peter built have you seen do we have a Zephyr report yet for today? Have you seen as ever

00:45 I guess not. No, it's possible that I missed it! Okay well I'm just curious to see how many cars it has? It'd be funny if you got down to six... That would not happen. That is when we really need to start activating all the shit hits the fan systems. A 6 car Zephyr? Unheard of very bad news. Well a 7 cars pretty weird I'll tell ya While were at it talking about transportation I would like to express my appreciation towards the truckers. We have many truckers in the No Agenda Media tribe, and an additional thank you to the dudes named Ben and dudettes named Bernadette

01:31 who are keeping your Netflix working, believe me there's actual work going on to change these bandwidth requirements. So that's your border gateway protocol... Shoking it down! The Border Gateway Protocol dude named Ben and there's all kinds of people making your stuff at home work so just want to say that off the bat And while we're talking about masks and counting let's debunk some stuff shall we? You're into the mood of debunking to start the show? Yeah, well I just one clip.

Dr. Deborah Birx, CBN Interview and Media Backlash

Dr. Deborah Birx faced criticism and "canceling" on social media following an interview with the Christian Broadcast Network (CBN). In the clip, Birx praised President Donald Trump's ability to analyze granular scientific data and integrate his business background into medical discussions. The hosts note that her positive comments about the President's competence triggered a negative reaction from mainstream media outlets.

02:22 Who now of course is your buddy. Yeah, well you know after I started paying attention to her and looked at her credentials in history she was as he immediately got debunked or What's the word? I'm looking for she's being cancelled She's in the middle of being cancelled and it and well let's start with that then this happened on Friday she did an interview with CBN what CBN is that Canada broadcast network broadcasting? What does CBN? Well, it could be Christian Broadcast Network. It could be let's see CBN No I think you're right it is the Christian Broadcast Network Of course not that anyone watches the crew not that many people watch The Christian Broadcast Network a few people do but it was put online and once it went viral then dr Burks Appointed by Obama in 2014 of course she worked for George W Bush. I mean she's been around She's an ambassador. She was a colonel

03:19 That was her last rank before she left the military services. No, no She is just an orange tongue ass licker didn't you know that yeah here it is How would you describe the job? President Trump is doing behind-the-scenes and in front of the cameras during these daily briefings that we're seeing what's your perspective, Dr. Birx? He's been so attentive to the scientific literature and the details and the data. And I think his ability to analyze it integrate data that comes out of his long history in business is really been a real benefit during these discussions about medical issues Because in the end, data is data and he understands the importance of the granularity. And I think he's been really excited about finding the level of detail that we've been able to now bring over the last few weeks to really understand who's at the greatest risk for severe illness

04:11 who will have mild and less asymptomatic disease, and really calling on every American to do that social distancing. Because some people may not know they're actually infected and be unknowingly spreading the virus. And that all comes from the president seeing the data and then really directing these policies in these guidelines that go out to the American people. Well this was no good! This meant she had flipped. She's no good, she's useless you can't listen to her anymore! She said something positive about the president's ability to comprehend things oh NO! The social media went nuts that most hated woman in America this weekend this was all preceded by her speaking very frankly to the media

CHAPTER 03 / 49 Discussion

Imperial College Model, Neil Ferguson and COVID-19 Data Adjustments

Dr. Deborah Birx addressed the media regarding significant downward adjustments to the Imperial College COVID-19 model created by Neil Ferguson. The original projections of 500,000 deaths in the UK and 2.2 million in the US were drastically reduced as real-world data emerged. Birx explained that the high initial estimates relied on assumptions of massive asymptomatic infection rates that have not been observed in the field.

imperial college· neil ferguson· deborah birx· covid-19 models· asymptomatic cases· antibody tests

05:00 at the press briefing, which I think or no. I know was completely ineffective because the media is still not reporting on it all of the information. I think we have most of it. We've discussed a lot of it and we start with the Imperial model which apparently got us into this mess This is the model that was created at the Imperial College in the United Kingdom, and that was done specifically by Neil Ferguson who downgraded his own model. significantly, and we can talk about that right after we listen to Dr. Birx telling the media that it was wrong and I think she doesn't do a great job here she treats the media like children which they don't respond very well too it would have been better just like children by the way yes I think a different approach might have gotten more attention but this is really the information Andy

06:01 What's- oh candy, yeah candy works. This is the infor- You said that in a very creepy knowing way I don't like what i heard there. I'm sure many of you saw the recent report out of the UK about them adjusting completely their needs. This is really quite important, if you remember that was the report that said there would be 500 thousand deaths in the UK and 2.2 million deaths in the United States they've adjusted that number to 20 thousand. Half a million to twenty thousand we're looking into this in great detail to understand that adjustment

06:40 I'm going to say something that's a little bit complicated, but I'm going to try and do it in a way that we can all understand it together. Okay children you ready? Wow! Hey by the way... Yes. If-I pointed this out years ago and it applied actually even before we began the show. That is the way Hillary always talked to the press. She stopped doing that, by the way. She got older she's kind of lost it because she got so angry but she used to say every word very distinctly and I complained about this a number times because what happens and this style is speaking where she spent every word very clearly

07:27 which was just a horrible way to speak, and the women in the Bay Area in particular. Oh she's such a wonderful speaker! But Hillary is always speaking down to people when you talk like... When I talk like this to you, It's demeaning, I think. Yes well you're not quite pulling it off but i understand what you're saying and its a milieu look at where she comes from! I'm stammering, I can't barely talk to myself But look at where she comes from She comes from that milieu She comes from the Obama administration Which doesn't matter by the way because you know she still has an orange tongue Its no good Orange Tongue? This was really... That's the kind of stuff

08:09 You get when you see this video online. It's hilarious how people are responding to her So I think this should have been breaking news, top of the news Oh my god check it out for whatever reason and there are reasons The model was adjusted downward by a factor of 25 That's not insignificant. Is it top of the news? No, of course not! Let's listen to what she said and let's all understand it together I'm going to say something that is a little bit complicated but I am going try do in way we can all understand it together In the model either you have to have large group people who are asymptomatic who never presented for any test

08:56 in order to have the kind of numbers that were predicted. To get to 60 million people infected, or 6 million people infected you have to have a large group of asymptomatic because in no country today had we seen an attack rate over 1 in 1000 So either we're only measuring the tip of the iceberg of the symptomatic cases and underneath it are a large group of people. So we're working very hard to get that antibody test because that's a good way to figure out who are all these people under here and do they exist?

09:33 And we have the transmission completely wrong. So these are the things, because the predictions of the reality on the ground in either We are about five times If we were Italy and you did all those divisions, Italy should have close to 400 thousand deaths. They're not close to achieving that so these are the kinds of things we're trying to understand models or models We're adapting now to the react there's enough data now of their real experience with a coronavirus on the ground To really make these predictions much more sound So when people start talking about 20% of a population getting infected it's very scary

CHAPTER 04 / 49 Discussion

Neil Ferguson, Hoof-and-Mouth Disease and Policy Influence

The hosts critique the track record of epidemiologist Neil Ferguson, noting his history of inaccurate predictions regarding Hoof-and-Mouth disease and Swine Flu. They question why his Imperial College model was used to justify national lockdowns in the UK and US when he adjusted his figures just days after the policies were implemented. The discussion focuses on the lack of transparency regarding who specifically convinced President Trump to shut down the country based on these models.

neil ferguson· boris johnson· hoof-and-mouth disease· swine flu· lockdown policy· r number

10:22 But we don't have data that matches that based on the experience. Okay, so again it wasn't top of the news this is very good news and... This not only isn't top-of-the-news it definitely should be top of the news but this is just like the global warming guys who are deniers, they just don't buy it. And they have good data to show that this is a lot of... No, no I disagree! ...these models are bad. This is the equivalent of the actual global warming modelers saying hey our models were wrong. It's not the same That would be fantastic news. This is not some contrarian this is Neil Ferguson epidemiologist who created the model

11:10 And two days after Boris Johnson locked down the country, he went before Parliament and testified and said okay yeah I've adjusted the model. And his answer to why this drastic change is well you know I didn't take into account we'd be doing anything which is total horse crap because he's made... The data is the R number, the RO number how many people one person will infect It's unknown still. So as you heard Dr Burke speaking, we don't really know the transmission rate so he just filled something in and then he changed it and it got a different result not the first time He's had some interesting misprognostications such as with Hoof-and-mouth disease where they... He is the hoof-and-mouth guy! Six million heads of cattle were destroyed

12:04 likely unnecessary, it really put the agrarian sector in the UK into a very problematic state. Same with the swine flu This guy has got to go! Well, it's not just this guy. Here here's what I understand the Imperial College is a form of research entity of record for government for think tanks for policy groups and for the media This is the study that got everybody all jacked and started the whole media thing along with politicians of course because you know they were reading two million dead in America, and I still want to know you recall The president said they couple people three. I think came to my office You gotta shut the country down. I still would like to know who that was

12:58 Just just just for history's sake who was it that convinced the president to shut down the country because it seems like It may not have been that necessary and we'll get into well. He was reluctant to take any of this dad seriously Mm-hmm, and they came in they started hounding him when the media went nuts Yep course the media what baffles me is as your point? This is a good good catch by the way And apparently you had to go catch it yeah is the media, seriously. It's disgusting that you had to just catch this and the media didn't because the media caught the other side of it

CHAPTER 05 / 49 Discussion

Media Financial Crisis, Ad Revenue Declines and Trump Opposition

A production manager at a CBS affiliate in North Dakota reports that local television ad revenue is collapsing as events cancel and stores close. Despite higher viewership, the media industry is facing a financial crisis. The hosts argue that mainstream media outlets are willing to suffer financial losses if the negative coverage helps prevent the reelection of Donald Trump, citing Bill Maher's previous comments about preferring a recession to a Trump victory.

cbs· bismarck· ad buys· bill maher· recession· mainstream media· trump reelection

13:39 And they don't catch the correction. This is the way they do their you know, dick They're all we made a correction in the paper You know that boy yeah, we were wrong but we made it correction of papers on page 32. You can find it right there It's at the bottom. Yeah, well sphere porn and and they're profiting off of it Although that's becoming sketchy I wonder by just to interrupt that part of it Yeah III will I want to read a note from one of our guys? Yes That's why bring it up good. Uh, you have two no too Because we're bitching about the media exploiting this and he says, what's the media play here? I work. And this is a guy who works at CBS local station in Bismarck North Dakota. I'm the production manager 32.

14:19 Our ad buys are dropping off a cliff. Events are canceling, these ads are gone, stores are closed those ads are gone people aren't working money isn't flowing propping this virus up does no good for us we have more eyeballs which is the thing that I point out right yeah more eyeballs but there's less way less demand for customers it's not like Walmart and Target need to advertise to sell toilet paper Even at the national or at a national Disney level, Universal Comcast NBC parks are closed. Stores are closed. This is costing everyone money. Yeah cars, car sales!

15:00 I'll just finish this and I have a, I thought about this all night. I don't hold the purse strings or TV station is busy so my employees have brought up raises until then it goes on about the rest of what the inner workings but I was thinking about this. This is true what he says and what you just said brings the point home I think even further. The media will take a beating on the bottom line if they can get rid of Trump. Yes! Yeah, it's so stupid. Stupid! That's how hard they'll bring the country... You gotta remember we have the clip Bill Maher going on I'd rather see a recession than see- I'd rather see the country go into the toilet then see Trump get reelected

15:47 Do we have the Bill Maher clip? I hope. We do have it's a defining, it is going to be a problem but he did say it where everyone knows that I remember and this example here that he's pointing out to me because I'm sure they're just explaining the situation when at least it bleeds but if they're taking a beating They're perpe- why won't they turn it around and get off this? No, no. This is the way to go because this will doom Trump and now that Trump's numbers are going up they're beside themselves! They don't know what to do!" And there's also a secondary part... Remember these guys, when I say these guys as these get these guys and gals of the media

16:27 certainly the on-air personalities, are really wrapped up in it. They are in... for them is the equivalent of their Vietnam front lines and that's how they're acting that's how they feel like okay and all these hardships like man I had to do my own makeup shit man I had to do my own hair it's like hardships on the front lines coronavirus reporting we're social distancing at my house in my home studio yeah man hope you can hunker down No, it's sad. It's sad and pathetic where this is great news for the world. For the world! Breaking news! They cannot bring themselves to be positive because it doesn't work in their mindset, actually in their business model no longer... they're used to when I was a kid

17:14 we'd actually have at the end of the broadcast, at the end of the broadcast mind you and now on a happy note. That's what they would do! We don't even get that anymore Do remember that in the last minute and a half of the news cast would be The Human Intra Story? And now on a happy note... and they get like a puppy... Well they still do that... Not really not really No I disagree but okay So they try to do something uplifting at the end and so Nora could maybe put a smile on her face. So let's just look at what was predicted 2 million if you drop that down by a factor of 25,000, you get to 500,000?

17:56 No, uh... 25 to 400 thousand? Something like that. Help me out John come on It would be 500 thousand it'd be a quarter of the number Right And you're saying it's twenty-five percent of the number but I guess it's... No no no! It's factor twenty five Oh then is what I have to pull up the calculator to get that correctly Well why don't we do with this mainstream media is not doing it So at two one two three four five six 2 million Factor of twenty five So it should be 80,000. 80,000 dead! Well we got a long way to go and you know this thing has to be at the end just for how seasonal these things are regardless so it seems like...and that's what Burke said either We just yeah it's like an iceberg under there we can't see anything And essentially everyone is infected I guess

CHAPTER 06 / 49 Discussion

COVID-19 Strains, L-Strain and S-Strain Research

A No Agenda producer and pharmacist working in Massachusetts confirms the existence of two distinct strains of COVID-19, referred to as the L-strain and the S-strain. While the L-strain is reportedly more severe, the S-strain may result in milder symptoms and potential immunity. The hosts highlight the lack of mainstream media reporting on these different viral variations and their respective treatment protocols.

l-strain· s-strain· oxford university press· massachusetts· hospital protocols· immunity

18:53 Well, she's implying a lot of people have had it. Yes well and this brings us to the second part which is the actual reporting of what's... of the virus itself I have another clip from Burks but first confirmation that there are indeed two strains the L strain and the S strain which i know for sure has not been reported in anything of mainstreamness. Now even though this has been published, we got it from the Oxford University Press, the No Agenda pharmacist who I've been communicating with he's a former professor of pharmacy

19:32 who's worked in a hospital in Massachusetts for the last five years, and yes he does have hundreds of COVID positive patients currently. He is in the process of creating two different protocols for the treatment of each of the strains because they are different so this is happening at the hospital level But you have not heard about it. And I don't know if Dr. Birx doesn't want to tell us because maybe we'll all get freaked out, because one is apparently much more severe than the other. It's very possible we have the L strain in New York possibly the L strain in Kirkland Washington who knows? but we don't know because there's no reporting and all the reporters are in their spare bedroom with the hardships of putting on their own makeup

20:17 So he gave me a whole breakdown of this. He sent it to me, especially for the No Agenda producers I just want to go back and forth with him make sure i can publish it because there was something unclear in his email But that is something... It's just not being reported! It's not being reported at all that there are two strains And its highly likely that if you had the S strain which means you may have had a little cough or been congested you are immune for the more severe L-strain. That's what it seems like Again, that all does fit with a bioweapon but that's a different story. Now about the damn ventilators! Oh my god so much hysteria from the media truly unfounded unwarranted lies about the availability of ventilators and Burks goes at the media again unsuccessfully I might add. And then finally this situation about ventilators we were reassured and meeting with our colleagues in New York

CHAPTER 07 / 49 Discussion

Ventilator Stockpiles, Governor Cuomo and Hospital Capacity

Dr. Deborah Birx and Governor Andrew Cuomo provide conflicting narratives regarding a ventilator shortage in New York. While the media reported a desperate lack of equipment, Birx stated that thousands of ventilators remained unutilized in stockpiles. Cuomo later clarified that while hospitals had enough for current needs, they were stockpiling equipment in anticipation of a projected "apex" in 20 days.

andrew cuomo· bill de blasio· ventilators· icu beds· javit center· dnr orders

21:18 that there are still ICU beds remaining and there's still significant over a thousand or two thousand ventilators that have not been utilized yet. Please, for the reassurance of people around the world to wake up this morning and look at people talking about creating DNR situations do not resuscitate situations for patients There is no situation in the United States right now that warrants That kind of discussion. You can be thinking about it in a hospital, certainly many hospitals talk about this on a daily basis but to say that to the American people, to make the implication that when they need a hospital bed is not going to be there or when they need that ventilator is not gonna be there we don't have an evidence

22:07 of that right now. And it's our job collectively to assure the American people, it's our collective job to make sure that doesn't happen. Right now you can see these cases are concentrated in highly urban areas. There are other parts of the states that have lots of ventilators and other parts of New York State that don't have any infections right now so we can be creative, we can meet the need by being responsive But there's no model right now, I mean no reality on the ground where we can see that 60 to 70% of Americans are going to get infected in the next 8-12 weeks. I just want to be clear about that

22:48 So, subsequently in the question and answer session the journalist who of course heard that from Dr. Birx and was wide awake and staring right at her asked the president a question. The question I was building up to is are you able to guarantee or assure these states these hospitals that everybody who needs a ventilator will get a ventilator? Here's what i'll tell you...I think we're in really good shape This is a pandemic the likes of which nobody's seen before. I think we're in great shape, I think that number one we've distributed ventilators- a big deal! We've distributed vast numbers of ventilators and were prepared to do vast numbers. Uh...I think we are in great shape, I hope thats the case. I hope that we are going to have leftovers so we can help other people, other countries. Everybody who needs one will be able to get a ventilator

23:37 Look, look don't be a cutie pie. Okay? Nobody's ever done what we've done nobody's done anything like we've been able to do and everything I took over was a mess It was a broken country in so many ways in so many ways other than this Now, where does this stem from? Again the media hyping some lie although you're about to hear it being walked back from Governor Cuomo of New York apparently propagate or originated with de Blasio. Oh we don't have enough ventilators! We don't have them Trump's not sending him Trump sucks That's my Cuomo. So reporter asked Cuomo point blank, were there ventilators found in a storage facility or something that the president is claiming that there were ventilators found and that they need to be distributed? Is there any truth to that? That is incorrect and grossly uninformed.

24:37 The point is, we have ventilators in a stockpile and we didn't send them to the hospital yet. So that's grossly incorrect and uninformed? It wasn't a stockpile! We had them in a warehouse it's not the same thing?! That's grossly wrong!! Of course we didn't that's the whole point. The hospitals don't need them yet. The hospitals aren't at their apex. The hospitals have enough ventilators today but the numbers are going up We're planning for an apex, a high point in about 21 days. That's when we need the 30 thousand ventilators not today right now we're putting them in a stockpile so the point is whether they are in a stockpile you must not need them it's just ignorant of course you don't need them today you need them when you hit

25:25 the apex which is 30,000. We're not there yet." So I don't know if the media misquoted the governor and mayor about this huge ventilator shortage in New York but it's certainly being walked back but of course its ignorant to think that we still have enough or not enough for its just a shit show But this shit show is coming from somewhere else. New York City wants you to believe that the coronavirus has overwhelmed their healthcare system Please pay no attention to the 16 hospitals in New York City that closed since 2003 I think it was cutting Medicaid reimbursements

CHAPTER 08 / 49 Discussion

Hospital Management, Respiratory Therapists and The Surge

Emails from medical professionals suggest that the primary bottleneck in COVID-19 response is a lack of trained staff, such as Respiratory Therapists, rather than a lack of physical ventilators. A nurse in Los Angeles reports low patient numbers despite the presence of triage tents. The hosts discuss how hospital business models, which prioritize 90% occupancy for profitability, left the system unprepared for a sudden surge.

registered respiratory therapists· medicaid· insurance companies· hospital beds· los angeles

26:05 You know, this is an administrative issue where hospitals are funded by the insurance companies who give them a lump sum every year. Here's your 800 million figure out how you're going to bill who you're gonna bill for it. I'm being brevity here because obviously that's not how it works But that's the essential idea and the idea is to run at 90% capacity all the time. It's a commercial business, and again I have to point out to insurance companies mainly as I feel they're at fault or the whole insurance system so no one was really ready for a pandemic they talked big game and now their blaming everybody they can except themselves couple of emails we received from our producers first of all from

26:48 Well, most of these want to be anonymous. I'm a person who operates the ventilators Adam we are registered respiratory therapists RRT You're right! You can have as many ventilators as you want but without someone to operate them you got a problem our training is very similar to a registered nurse both jobs require at least two-year associate degree or higher and national board exam state license to practice I'm receiving job ads every day. Everyone is trying to prepare for the quote, the surge and this is the thing you gotta look at... The Surge! Our local hospital is licensed for 150 beds for a town of 40 thousand but they're trying to prepare for patient load of up to 400 as a worst-case scenario

27:33 So, as you've astutely noted the talk is where to put the patients but not who is going to take care of them. The administration's just reissuing the same talking points over and over to us rank-and-file He does say he's a ham so he does get to save the world twice which is kind of cool thank you very much And we have, this is again anonymous. Adam and John I'd like to say thank you for keeping me sane these past few weeks with a donation of $50 dollars. It's been awhile since my last donation. I'm a registered nurse at a major medical center in Los Angeles as of Friday We have eight cases of COVID in the hospital Every morning I walk past these zip up white tents they've erected outside looking for activity So far I've seen one person going into a tent

CHAPTER 09 / 49 Discussion

Just-In-Time Inventory, PPE Shortages and Hospital Administration

A clinician explains that hospital shortages of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) are the result of "Just-In-Time" inventory management practices adopted from the auto industry. These lean processes prioritize balance sheets over emergency preparedness, leaving facilities with only a week's supply of masks. Meanwhile, hospitals in Washington and California are reportedly facing layoffs or have previously sold off their emergency mobile hospital kits.

sigma psi· toyota· inventory management· ppe· masks· layoffs· california

28:23 I do of course remain hopeful the case numbers remain low. I learned an interesting tidbit about the much sought-after masks in our morning meeting yesterday apparently we have an abundant supply of them however, the fifth floor that is the deep state of this hospital are rationing them out yes! The fifth floor it's where those in power stay never to be seen oh and doesn't sound too busy in that particular medical center Cook County Illinois I live in suburban Chicago, not exactly the hotbed that New York City is but there are over 1900 cases in Cook County. Two of my friends are nurses at different suburban Cook County hospitals both are either on reduced hours or on vacation!

29:09 The reason? No work! All elective or discretionary services at the hospitals are over. Only emergency and COVID work is being done, most of the floors are empty. The media would have you believe that every hospital is storing people in the hallways and it looks like Armageddon Yes That's what's embedded in your mind And you saw on the TikTok videos a couple months ago that's was in your brain It's embedded there I have it too, I can't help it That's really not the case in a lot of places. I'm not saying it won't get there maybe and it won't be all neck deep soon, but I don't see it that way now tomorrow might be a new day Then we have clinician Jason We are all seeing the constant posts and news about health care professionals running out of masks and gloves And you've possibly asked yourself how does a hospital run out of mass so quickly do they prepare for this? The answer is No

29:59 The white collars who work in the executive suite of hospitals went to business school, were taught and implemented Sigma Psi lean process improvement and especially Toyota's just-in-time inventory management which usually provides only one to two weeks of inventory supply to make things look better on the balance sheet. Works very well when the world is running perfectly don't work so well at a time like this! Who would have thunk? While the lab people and perhaps doctors and nurses have been forced to undergo training and testing on how to react during some sort of microbial attack or catastrophic or catastrophe since 9-11, the corporate side couldn't bother to throw a few extra cases of masks in the basement in event there's a sudden run on them or short interruption in supply chain. So when healthcare providers start getting sick or worse due to lack of personal protective equipment don't blame the preppers China or even the CEOs who sent their manufacturing there I do

30:51 Blame the suits who work in the same facility as the doctors getting sick, who are also considered non-essential employees Who get to sit home during all of this. We've been forced to train for an event like this for almost 20 years and places are running out Of masks in days because just because someone thought it was a good idea To implement the same inventory management auto manufacturers use in hospitals that provide essential emergency health care And Kirkland Washington Well, the Washington health care system is apparently announcing layoffs amid the COVID-19 outbreak. It's so crazy busy and pre the coronavirus California had mobile hospitals they had 50 million masks 2400 ventilators kits to set up 21 thousand additional beds but they sold them all So stop already

31:46 And this is the administrators and people in the hospitals pushing this out to the media because they know their asses on the line. If, if, if, if...and looking at the new model, IF it isn't bad as originally predicted then they would look pretty stupid That's all that this is about and they're flooding the media with it and they're scaring people in the process It's beautiful! Well done everybody No wonder you are losing your ass Well, not the people who are hosting it. They're much richer than we are but actually the guys losing their ass gonna be us I Didn't want to mention that but yes That's possible so those what the clips I have today or about some of the industries that are getting screwed Oh Yay, let's look at that Well something to look at because there's nothing you can do about it But it's good to know what they are and then there's also a kind contrarian reports I've been

CHAPTER 10 / 49 Discussion

Dr. David Price, COVID-19 Transmission and Prevention

Dr. David Price of Weill Cornell Medical Center describes COVID-19 transmission as occurring almost exclusively through sustained contact and hand-to-face transfer. He emphasizes that the virus is not easily caught through casual contact and that masks serve primarily as a reminder not to touch one's face. The hosts compare this information to the more alarmist coverage found in US media versus international outlets like Al Jazeera.

david price· hand-to-face transmission· social distancing· aerosolization· al jazeera· sky news

32:42 I bet you it turns out that Al Jazeera is the best place for a lot of this stuff. Interesting you say that yeah, i found some clips on al jazeera as well Well most of the US news is just one thing Orange That's it they don't even say orange man bad anymore It's just ORANGE! That's it? I do want to play this so this is kind of a This is this guy sent a note to his, this was the doctor in New York at one of the top hospitals. And he sent a note to his family which went viral and it's an hour long but I took a clip from it. It's about how they catch the disease. And I thought it was interesting as just some good educational piece we can take a break from complaining. The guy is the COVID guy who has been

33:36 And that's all he does is work on COVID cases. And he thinks it's actually not that easy to catch. Oh, wait a minute! This is the guy... Is he on the Banyan podcast from time-to-time? This doctor? I don't know. Yeah, I think so. He's Dr. Price. Yeah, yeah, I think he's done some of the hydroxychloroquine testing as well. No this could be. Well here he is telling you how to get COVIS. So I think the first thing is how do you get COVID? You actually said COVID, you know that right? Yeah I said COVID because i wrote it down on the clip. So I think the first thing is how do you get COVID and I think that this is really important and we've really learned a lot over the last couple weeks to months about how you get this disease And so the overarching theme is sustained contact

34:29 with someone who has this disease, which the vast majority is people with fever and aches or someone who is about to get the disease. So someone in the next one to two days who's going to develop symptoms of this disease and so the way that you get this is the transmission of the virus almost exclusively from your hands to your face from your hands to your face and so it's either into your eyes, into your nose or into your mouth. So there's a lot of talk about contact, or getting it through contact hands to face. There is also the small thought that it can be aerosolized that it can kind of exist a little bit in the air. The thought at this point is you actually have to have very long sustained contact with someone and I'm talking about over 15-30 minutes in an unprotected environment meaning you're in a very closed room without any type of mask

35:32 for you to get it that way. But to very simply state, the overwhelming majority of people are getting this by physically touching someone who has this disease or will develop it in the next one to two days and then touching their face And so that actually I think is incredibly empowering and that's as i've been in the hospital the last two days. The thing that makes me smile a little bit, Is that I actually know now that I won't get this disease. Yeah this guy needs to stay away from hot tubs small aviation etc because This is not the way it's supposed to be communicated and this is not how social distancing works

36:16 Which... Well, yeah there is that. And where's this? It stays in the air for 24 hours! You touch a dollar bill you'll get it I mean I seriously can't watch it anymore. It isn't just zero value Zero value Sky News has little bit better RT AJ Al Jazeera The US media is completely worthless and I hope they're held to account when this is all over. Well, the tail of the tape will be down at Javits Center They're turning it into a giant hospital Yeah which is completely empty That's where Cuomo... Which is completely empty Yes that's where Cuomo does his press conferences from There's no one there Now he says this for the surge thats coming

CHAPTER 11 / 49 Discussion

Amy Goodman, Testing Logic and Political Fear

Amy Goodman of Democracy Now is criticized for claiming that US case numbers are surging due to a "lack of testing," which the hosts find logically inconsistent. They argue that increased testing naturally leads to higher reported case numbers, which is being used by politicians like Nancy Pelosi and Maxine Waters to justify a fourth coronavirus rescue bill and maintain a state of public fear.

amy goodman· democracy now· testing· nancy pelosi· maxine waters· rescue bill

37:09 And the surge, the media surge is there which is fueled by the damn chart with the blotches of red everywhere and the increased testing. If we're testing a hundred thousand people a day it's going to look like IT'S SPIKING! Yeah, anyway. It's hard enough for even for us to just see through it I'm sure people who don't listen to the no agenda show or similar programs if they're out there They're probably terrified. I think they are in fact. I'm pretty sure people are terrified yeah and People always say why you done? You aren't you scared I get that from somebody good

37:50 No, oh you should be why I don't get it. Okay, whatever I Don't know what it's just beyond me Let me let's play this This is a clip because what you just said about the testing? I want you to listen to this clip This is a real short clip from Amy Goodman and it's called Corona in USA in And I want you to listen to the logic of this. The number of cases in the US has surged 85,000 people. The number is far higher because of the lack of testing. Wow! Lack of testing...the lack of testing it's now at a hundred thousand a day but the media including Amy wants more testing

38:38 More testing and the shills who were like Nancy Pelosi more testing, more testing so we can show it's getting worse because she wants a fourth bill mind you. She and Maxine Waters want a fourth coronavirus rescue bill so they need to have more terror, more fear day end of course this will all surround the president's wishful statements of going back to work at least being ready to rare and ago by Easter April 12th no No, this is now being politicized. Of course, of course He's trying to kill us a bad orange man now now look right? No One more one more Amy clips as we get out of the way sure there's corona deaths in Trump Yeah

39:25 Yeah. Well, good. The number of cases in the U.S. has surged to 85000 people. The number is far higher because of the lack of testing as President Trump continues to defy his scientific advisors and downplay The threat of the highly contagious disease, at least 1300 people have died across the US and the global death toll is more than 24000. Okay so this is egregious? Let me just play that beginning again... The number of cases in the U.S has surged to 85 thousand people! far higher because of the lack of testing, as President Trump continues to defy his scientific advisors and downplay.

40:11 It's just a lot, it's not even close to true. That's unbelievable! The threat of the highly contagious disease at least 1300 people have died across the US and the global death toll is more than 24 thousand. I haven't... And that's Trumps fault too by the way Oh of course it is and this is going to come in let me see well if you want them it's being politicized here I'll just might as well play it Nancy Pelosi on CNN And remember, she is setting up two things. She's setting up another like a real boondoggle bonanza bill which I don't think we need anymore or maybe we should see somewhere but it's already in her head and she's ready for impeachment again when you hear politicians in a true crisis politicizing

CHAPTER 12 / 49 Discussion

Nancy Pelosi, CNN Interview and War Rhetoric

Speaker Nancy Pelosi appeared on CNN with Jake Tapper to criticize President Trump's handling of the pandemic, accusing his "denial" of being deadly. She compared the President to Nero "fiddling while Rome burns" and suggested an after-action review would be necessary. The hosts characterize her rhetoric as an attempt to politicize the crisis and lay the groundwork for future inquiries or impeachment.

nancy pelosi· jake tapper· cnn· nero· impeachment· federal guidelines

41:02 I'd love to see if you can point towards wartime, this has been declared a war by the media, by politicians, by the president, by multiple leaders. So it's a war? If you hear politicizing going on then it's really not that dire and in real war you don't hear Going on with Nancy Pelosi says here to Jake Tapper on CNN. Trump is considering relaxing federal guidelines for coronavirus for some of the less affected parts of the country, do you think he should? Well first of all let me just say how sad it is that even since the president's signing of the bill The number of deaths reported has doubled from 1,000 to 2,000 in our country This is such a very very sad time for us so we should be taking every precaution

41:47 What the president, his denial at the beginning was deadly. His delaying of getting equipment to where it continues is delay in getting equipment to where its needed is deadly." This is unbelievable! Just showed you that's not true but his delaying of equipment getting to where it needed to get to is deadly a lie by any account By any account no one has died because they didn't have a ventilator This is so- Pelosi is really an evil human being. We have to have testing, testing, testing. That's what we said from the start before we can evaluate what the nature of it is in some of these other regions as well. I don't know what the purpose of that is. I don't know what the scientists are saying to him. I don't know what the scientist said to him when did this president know about this?

42:54 And what did he know? What did he know and when did he know it. That's for an after-action review, but as the president fiddles people are dying and we have to...we just have to take every precaution." So as the President fiddles which is her reference to Nero as Rome burned Is that what she's saying? Oh yeah, that's exactly what she is saying. Unbelievable! And well we'll figure out what he knew when he knew it why didn't act after the fact because there's gonna be another inquiry Why the hell should we stop with that? Jeez Meanwhile There's even some thinking that the botched testing which was completely contained within the Centers for Disease Control

CHAPTER 13 / 49 Discussion

CDC Testing Sabotage, Robert Redfield and HHS

A report from Sinclair Broadcasting suggests that the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) may have misled the White House and the HHS Secretary regarding the development of diagnostic tests. Former HHS official Bill Meeks alleged that the CDC's failure to produce a working test delayed the national response by weeks. The hosts speculate whether this was a bureaucratic error or intentional sabotage by "deep state" technocrats.

cdc· robert redfield· alex azar· sinclair broadcasting· deep state· diagnostic tests

43:38 may actually have been a sabotage towards the president. Wouldn't surprise me! Now, the former assistant secretary of health and human services for preparedness and response tells Sinclair exclusively why he believes the testing process was held up for so long. In my conversations with members at the task force both inside and outside the administration and PD The US government, from Secretary Azar to the President relied on the Centers for Disease Control to produce a test. They failed. CDC said they would handle it and what we have found out is these leaders at the CDC lied to both the HHS secretary and by extension the president and as a result the nation got weeks behind

44:17 Dr. Robert Redfield, director of the CDC was briefed on Sinclair's reporting a spokesman responded by saying it is Meekins the former HHS official who is trafficking in misinformation CDC rapidly developed to diagnostic test for CDC and the nation's public health labs The statement said today more than 89 public health labs in 50 states and the District of Columbia are using the COVID-19 test CDC encouraged our government partners to work with the private sector We regret that some are being misinformed during a time when CDC and our US government partners are working 24-7 to protect Americans. However, in his round of televised interviews Sunday Dr Anthony Fauci the nation's top official for infectious diseases let it be known that the administration's experience with CDC in the development of testing was an unhappy one I would hate to think that government employees inside the Centers for Disease Control

45:16 purposely misled the director who looked pretty glum. Well yeah, I mean you worked in a government job when you screw something up like that what do you do? Well, there's a couple of things. He just screwed up on purpose just because you wanted that you don't like this president which is a lot of people are alike I mean there are certain people I've chat with who were seemed very normal but they hate the president in a very irrational way and they would love to see him get rid of the guy and i could see people doing this in an agency well let's give them the benefit of the doubt like the boss given given the benefit of the doubt so it was a mistake

45:53 What did he do? Cover it up. Well, if you make a mistake you tend to find a rationale for it happening. Okay yeah It's not like you go out and admit it. No well they also didn't deny that just said that guy is lying They didn't deny at least not according to the report I'm more suspicious than that because we've seen three years of this sort of thing by what they generally call the deep state. These old technocrats that have been in there forever and they worry about slimming down of agencies and cutting budgets, all the rest of it that Trump seems to threaten. And I can see these guys working against the president. They just work against him

CHAPTER 14 / 49 Discussion

Global Death Counts, Italy and EU Financial Incentives

The hosts question the accuracy of COVID-19 death tolls in Italy and Spain, suggesting that financial incentives from the European Union may be influencing how deaths are recorded. In Italy, the percentage of deaths directly attributed to COVID-19 was reportedly revised downward. Spain's National Health Institute has instructed coroners not to perform autopsies, leading to suspicions that any death involving a positive test is being labeled a coronavirus fatality.

italy· spain· death certificates· autopsies· european union· financial aid

46:38 There seems to be a huge... Muddy it up, muddy up the gears. You know? Just doing some... There seems to be a huge discrepancy in how the dead are counted and what the cause of death is attributed to. We already know about Italy that they pretty much just said everything's COVID-19, Spain's national health... Just before you go on with those numbers and you also point out that most people are over 80, you said that in email In Italy, the number that we got a couple of weeks ago was that 19% of the people dying might have COVID. That number has been reduced to 12. Yeah exactly

47:22 Now if you look on social media, The Keeper pointed out to me today person after person is mad because there's their loved one in a press briefing like a little blurb and obituary died of coronavirus. Like that's my dad he didn't die of coronavirus as just account after account so these hospitals are not only counting every death as coronavirus they're publicizing it I believe that there is some sort of EU scam going on.

47:58 By these outliers and I would put Italy in that category because the EU is not treated Italy well Yes, now you get there. Uh-huh and Spain when I leave him when I was visiting last time when I was in Madrid we were driving around these beautiful new buildings that were financed by the EU and my hosts were pretty much implying that they weren't gonna they had no intention of ever paying the EU back and They did not like the EU, but they liked their money. And so Spain is following suit I think the Spanish numbers are just like the Italian numbers they're bogus and want to get some cash. Well Spain's National Health Institute has told their coroner's to not perform autopsies because it's a biohazard Germany changed their way of counting COVID-19 deaths

CHAPTER 15 / 49 Discussion

Nigel Farage, European Union Sovereignty and Chinese Influence

Nigel Farage discusses the potential collapse of the European Union as member states reimpose borders and ignore the Schengen Agreement. He notes that Germany's refusal to export masks to Italy allowed China to step in as a "charitable godfather" to gain global influence. Farage argues that the crisis has exposed the failure of global governance and the importance of national sovereignty.

nigel farage· brexit· schengen agreement· germany· china· global governance

48:43 Midway somewhere including persons who have been in contact with kovat 19 positive individuals and showing symptoms if you die then I'm sure it was coronavirus, but you brought up the EU This is an important point because there are there's some big game stuff happening as well There's a lot of big things happening in the background that Of course our media is not paying attention to and what is really happening in the European Union? Nigel Farage now a citizen of the country formerly in the European Union, the United Kingdom. He was on an Australian interview listen to what he has to say... There was such a wave of optimism! The property market was turning things were happening and now we've got this crisis to deal with but all I can say is thank goodness

49:32 We're not in what is going to be after this an even more German dominated European Union. We may have our problems, all of us but at least we are free." When it comes to death, frankly that is a national thing not some vague concept of a supernational state and thats why you've seen borders being re-imposed and all the rest of it I always thought the European Union would come crashing down. I always thought this sort of move towards global governance was baloney, and I never imagined it would take a serious global illness to finally finish it off but there is a danger here! A real danger and its this you know when Germany refused to export medical masks to Italy despite the desperate state they were in guess who stepped into the breach? The people who caused it...the Chinese

50:22 And what we're seeing over much of the world is China now acting as the charitable godfather, you know dishing out money and dishing out medical equipment and trying to use this crisis to gain global power. I wouldn't want to see You know, the idiots in Brussels replaced by Chinese communism dominating the world even more than it does today. And there's a real risk of some of that happening not to the extreme he is saying I don't think but that's exactly what's happening The Schengen Agreement you might as well just throw this throw it out That's a big part of the European Union if the concept is that there are no borders That's done

CHAPTER 16 / 49 Discussion

Rhode Island National Guard, New York Quarantine and State Borders

Governor Gina Raimondo of Rhode Island deployed the National Guard to go door-to-door in coastal communities to identify and quarantine travelers from New York. State troopers also began stopping vehicles with New York license plates. The ACLU challenged the constitutionality of these measures, while other governors, such as Jay Inslee of Washington, considered similar state-level border restrictions.

gina raimondo· rhode island· national guard· aclu· jay inslee· quarantine

51:07 Germany's got checkpoints everywhere. Everyone is going to have their checkpoint, they're bringing it right back not that we are any different by the way there is a real danger of this kind of stuff happening in the US and here in southern New England some residents are concerned about people from New York coming here and potentially spreading the virus And starting tomorrow Governor Gina Raimondo has ordered the National Guard to go door-to-door in coastal communities looking for people from New York and today state troopers began pulling drivers over if they had New York license plates. Tara Copey drove up from Staten Island to pick up a new puppy for her family she was given a packet by the National Guard saying that New Yorkers are required to quarantine for 14 days if they plan on staying in the Ocean State

51:49 New York is getting such a bad rap sheet when it's really all over the place. The ACLU of Rhode Island called the order by Governor Raimondo unconstitutional, a claim she disputed Friday saying it's what needs to be done with New York City just 180 miles away It's consistent with all the guidance we're getting from federal government and from experts and its what I know to be necessary in order to keep Rhode Islanders safe I sure hope we don't go to shutting off states from each other. Jay Inslee wants to shut off Washington Yeah, well it's possible It's all in Kirkland Just quarantine Kirkland Let's talk about social distancing for a moment...I was incorrect! I thought it was only a US term which I thought

CHAPTER 17 / 49 Discussion

Social Distancing, Neuro-Linguistic Programming and Global Surveillance

The hosts analyze the term "social distancing" as a form of neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) designed for social control rather than just physical safety. They discuss reports from Rotterdam where "watchers" enforce distance in grocery stores. Adam Curry contrasts this with his experience at a 99 Ranch Market, where mask-wearing was common and the atmosphere remained normal without aggressive enforcement.

social distancing· nlp· rotterdam· 99 ranch market· surveillance· social control

52:40 Yes, it's apparently everywhere. We get some notes about it. It's an international term which just makes that more evil! Social distancing is not what you're doing In fact, we're trying to be very social with each other. You are distancing yourself from somebody This is a very evil Neuro linguistic programming new world order kind of I agree I think it should be called physical distance and physical whatever you want to call it social distancing is not okay But what is happening? Actual social distancing is taking place Christina says in Rotterdam she went to the grocery store and It's horrible

53:19 You have stripes and lines and stickers everywhere where you can stand as you're walking through. Stand there, stand on the X! And they have watchers...watchers! Hey, you're getting too close to that person! Step back! Don't come closer! And everyone's looking at each other with distrust and evil stink eye? That's the result of social distancing if you want to call it that and put into people heads It's really, really evil this term. So let's go over my experience going out to the different stores for picking up booze and food.

54:01 So I noticed a couple places, they're very friendly about it. Like I went to Total Wines to get some cognacs and they had X's on the ground but they weren't making a big fuss that would say move along or something like that. There's lines now in front of most of the grocery stores because they're keeping a minimum number people and the lines are all separated by six feet and it's stupid, I won't stand in one. Hey by the way that's outside in Rotterdam the shit is inside Yeah no its outside and yeah on the inside you got the lines at the cash register same way so I find a store I can get into get in and get out of and of all places it's the Asian giant Asian supermarket 99 Ranch Empty! There's no there's no lines because it's an asian store

CHAPTER 18 / 49 Discussion

Drone Enforcement, Neighborhood Informants and Social Control

Authorities in the Netherlands and the UK are using drones equipped with speakers to order citizens to stay home. Local governments have also established websites for neighbors to report on those violating lockdown rules. The hosts compare this "narking" behavior to historical precedents of social control and collaboration in occupied territories during World War II.

drones· netherlands· united kingdom· informants· narc websites· social control

54:51 Every Asian in the store is wearing a mask. You're safe, you're safe and good to go over there. It seems very safe in there because everyone's wearing a mask and everyone's got gloves on and they're all... And the stores bustling and it's just fine. It seems very normal in their except for everyone wearing the mask and there's no long lines. Uh, it's fantastic as I was really pleased with that little discovery. The counterintuitive Here in Texas, it's still very laid back. You can go out drive around this you know there's not much is open except for food we've been going to curbside pickup from our the restaurants we went to previously and And this is something I would recommend if there's a restaurant that you've been to and you're gonna use their pick up service or takeout Just leave them a tip that's equal to what you'd normally pay in that restaurant because their money comes from booze

55:47 You know, the keeper and I have two glasses of wine. That's 26 bucks right there at almost any restaurant you go to So add that on because that's really, that's the money they're really losing. Yeah, the booze ripoff as I would call it is how they make their money. But it's yeah exactly now so the social distancing is a fan this global experiment is just awe-inspiring to watch how we've all decided to do this, even though there's not really regulations in the United States. I did get a criminal prosecutor hounding me saying ha-ha in Virginia the governor actually can force you to stay home and that the governor has put all kinds of tricky stuff into their state laws but in general people are staying inside but we have to keep an eye on them, we have to get them used to their future so

56:46 In the Netherlands on the beaches they're using drones to disperse people who are on the beach. In the UK actually got a little audio of the drone taking off and of its giant voice system which is not that giant. This is a message from the European Council, please follow the European rules at this time You must stay home only be outside if you don't for health reasons Now here's the joke of it. In both the UK where I got that audio and the Netherlands, it's like a drone It's like you know... Like a three-foot diameter drone if that there's three people to operate the thing they're standing right there flying the drone over to a group of people and then the drone goes You must stay home!

57:47 There's three people standing there who could go up to the group and say, hey no no we have to get you used this drone idea. Very odd! This is not like a Reaper drone flying overhead John it's one that yeah it was like a amateur pro kind of deal you know? It's just uh...it has got a speaker and its got a camera and if they know there are still three people on the ground So it's a total exercise in mentality, you know training people. This is your life should be ready for it Yes, this is not good I should mention a couple other things going on around like the Pacific Northwest Mimi's bitches about this constantly and It is the locals Hicks

58:42 We'll call them in this case. They are narcing on any little business that thinks it has a right to stay open or meets the... Oh, the narking I forgot to mention! UK and Netherlands? Yep, local governments have set up NARC websites so you can narc on your neighbors Exactly what we predicted! Exactly That's an... All you have to do is look at Cuba and see how that society went. You get the whole thing happening here How about World War II? How about the Nazis, how about the collaborators? Yeah, collaborators. How about the NSB who were like oh yeah I don't know that person looking like they're going outside. So she says it's mostly old women Who are narcing! Yeah of course

CHAPTER 19 / 49 Discussion

Bill Gates, CNN Town Hall and Exponential Growth

Bill Gates appeared on a CNN virtual town hall with Anderson Cooper and Sanjay Gupta to advocate for a total national lockdown. Gates emphasized the "exponential growth" of the virus and suggested that the entire country must follow the strict quarantine model used in parts of China. He predicted that shutdowns would need to continue through the end of May to effectively lower case numbers.

bill gates· anderson cooper· sanjay gupta· event 201· exponential growth· lockdowns

59:30 Of course. Oh yeah, they told us to be inside and they're not! Exactly so but that's social that is that's why it's called social distancing because it includes social control and the control is coming from the group itself there's got to be some psychologist amongst our producers who can tell us how this is I'm sure this tactic has been used in the past This is not something new at all It's very... now So now we have the new player on the scene, who's not the new player. He is the guy that is really behind a lot of this I think a lot of fear due to the perfect setup, the alley-oop of Event 201, the pandemic exercise, the 100 million dollars in the World Health Organization good buddies with Tedros. I'm talking about Bill Gates and Bill Gates is now doing media interviews

1:00:29 Yeah, I saw him on something the other day and he was like a useless functionary on one of the CNN shows. Oh you're talking about the coronavirus town hall which was with Anderson Cooper and Sanjay Gupta it was a virtual townhall because they couldn't actually have a townhall. It looked like three guys in a box to me! Three boxes that's right that is now three boxes a Town Hall maketh so here is Bill Gates discussing social distancing, quarantining but definitely not getting out of jail anytime soon. Well let's say you have a hundred cases and let's say you don't do a shutdown then it grows 33% per day so if you take 100 you get 1,000 to get 10,000 its exponential growth if your not stopping the sooner you engage in the shut down the easier it is to get to that peak

1:01:27 We have not peaked. The parts of the country that aren't shut down, in late April we should start to see the numbers peak there. They'll still be too high to open up so you'll probably have to go another month to really get those numbers down but any part that has cases and truthfully because of our problems with testing, because we're not prioritizing testing the right way. A lot of those places actually do have cases but even if they have 100 that will grow and people do cross county boundaries. And so basically the whole country needs to do what was done in the part of China where they had these infections." So he's talking about end-of-May, that we should stay inside by the way nice 33 mentioned there Bill is always in there

CHAPTER 20 / 49 Discussion

South Korea Model, Digital Monitoring and Antibody Wristbands

During his media appearances, Bill Gates and medical commentators like Dr. Drew discussed using technology to monitor the population's health status. Dr. Drew suggested "multicolored wristbands" to identify individuals with antibodies or those who are "safe" to interact with. The hosts link these proposals to Gates' previous involvement in pandemic exercises and his interest in global vaccination and tracking systems.

1:02:21 They'd never asked him nor did he ever explain although he brought it up several times in his virtual town hall what the Prioritized testing means exactly and all you get. Yeah, just wait wait He said prioritize in the right way Which which narrows it down even more and he should have been grilled on he was not asked he didn't offer it I'm yelling at the TV didn't help but He's full of shit. He's full of shit because he contradicts himself in the next bit about this staying at home We got to stay at home like the countries who were successful did it, you know? We keep hearing that the virus is going to dictate the timeline Dr. Fauci has said that when you look at this virus we got three and a half months worth of data now

1:03:05 When he said that but I should mention this when he said dr. Foushee said that for some unknown reason He laughed with a very odd like Cheshire cat kind of smile, I saw it too Yeah Anyway, I didn't understand why I was like, but you know Fauci is in the deal with him Fauci is a part of the Bill Gates system Probably bill got a kick out of hearing Fauci get some free PR No, that's... there you go. That would be the most innocuous reason he was laughing but yeah When you look at this virus we got three and a half months worth of data now 150 countries if you apply all the analytics that Microsoft, all the analytics This is Sanjay Gupta The big medical doctor on CNN Hey man! If you apply all the analytics You're like Microsoft don't have like a computer company? Do some crunching of numbers

1:03:58 Dick if you apply all the analytics that a you know Microsoft at all the analytics that we can possibly apply to this is How this is going to sort of progress and end knowable I mean, can you give a clear answer depending on what sort of? You know mitigation measures. We have in place hey bill. You're really rich man sure you can give me the answers I mean yeah crunch some numbers crunching numbers. Do a serious shutdown that they will able to be able to avoid A high percentage of their population getting infected. That's what the Exemplars like some of the work in China and South Korea are telling us Oh, oh I'm sorry bill South Korea didn't shut down the whole country No, they had small pockets of quarantine. I looked it up because when I heard that like that's your exemplar

1:04:58 The Knights Exemplar is China who shut down their provinces, but South Korea who arguably have given us more information that is trustworthy than China. Well if that's your information then you're full of crap Bill Gates because they had an app! Dr. Drew knows how it's how we're gonna get back to work best way or safe way for us to go back To work that is as I've said from the very beginning That's gonna be the toughest part on this whole thing How do you do that? We're gonna probably do something like what South Korea did which is using technology and testing technology Oh, there should be three T So its treatment technology and testing and will have ways of monitoring people whether they have antibodies whether they have virus Whether they've been treated

1:05:39 Whether they have viral shedding whether they've resolved the illness I mean we're gonna have all kinds of providing I imagine sort of multicolored wristbands or something that we can identify who's safe and who's not who he should distance from Who shouldn't and there should be technology around that too if you saw again, I mentioned this yesterday. Dr. Burks dr Burke said day before yesterday that she had been doing this in Africa and and had been very successful. And if she can do it in countries that undeveloped, certainly we can do it here." Yes well the wristband is a cute idea Dr Drew but no eventually will get to the chip and thats what everyone's worried about but not even our lifetime that'll be our kids' lifetime probably No!

CHAPTER 21 / 49 Discussion

COVID-19 Apps, HIPAA Privacy and Health Data Integration

The Trump administration announced new rules allowing Americans to retrieve medical data from providers via third-party apps. The hosts warn that once health data is moved from regulated systems to personal smartphones, it is no longer protected by HIPAA privacy laws. They suggest this is a coordinated effort to integrate health data into tracking apps, effectively "tagging" citizens based on their infection status.

apple· google· hipaa· health data· trump administration· data privacy

1:06:20 Everyone's already gladly downloaded the app, the COVID-19 app which was promoted universally by Apple, by Google, Roku Amazon Alexa. Of course, I repurposed an iPhone just for this reason to see the app. See what it was doing Seems like it's only communicating with one IP One server which is aptly named COVID19 dot CDN dot something dot apple com And this is where they get their initial information from you of course your phone all the ID Information everything's in there. I can't reverse engineer the app but you know what's in there That's how we start

1:07:00 And I think almost every state in the United States has now evaluated their data protection, their cell phone data and said fuck it. We're just going to get as much data as we can. We're forcing the phone companies to give it to us or whatever commercial company will give it to us we can buy it from and we're starting to put up maps so we can have people make sure there's no one roaming around their neighborhoods that can narc on you or shoot you maybe That's how it starts and it is everywhere but new data health rules something changed It's always fantastic. How this coincidence takes place? Let me see this New York Times article Well, let me check the date on it is from March 9th

1:07:47 In a move intended to give Americans greater control over their medical information, the Trump administration announced broad new rules on Monday that will allow people for the first time to use apps of their choice to retrieve data like their blood test results directly from their health providers. The Department of Health and Human Services said their new system was intended to make it as easy for people as possible to manage their health care on smartphones, as it is for them to use apps to manage their finances. But here's what is interesting! Once you take the information out of the system, which is regulated by HIPAA. That's the very strict data privacy rules for health data once you put it take it out of that realm It's almost like a like an open source License you get it from your doctors on your phone once it's on your phone You hand it to one other person There's no hippa

1:08:43 Even on your phone, there's no HIPAA. If some other app gets a hold of it... Done! This is how they're gonna integrate because of course everybody wants you to be encouraged to download your health data Encouraged And you're gonna have it and there'll be all these apps, oh I should probably put that in there. And then before you know it... You'll be tagged! Tagged as a possible infected PI. Possible Infected Human Resource over there. Opportunity Zone 33 What's he doing over there? What's he doing at that store? Poland has a... we know that South Korea has an app. Of course, we have the US app I think it's a coordinated effort and if they're gonna let states do their own We have this secretive group that is working on behalf of the governors which i'm getting updated on continuously And they are looking to hybrid app for social distancing By the way six feet is interesting choice

CHAPTER 22 / 49 Discussion

Quarantine Selfies, Poland and The "Obama Phone"

Poland has implemented a mandatory app for quarantined individuals that requires them to upload selfies at random intervals to prove their location. The hosts joke about the difficulty of enforcing such measures on people with older flip phones, suggesting the government might eventually issue "Obama phones" or tracking bracelets to ensure total compliance with digital surveillance.

1:09:42 distance. Isn't that how far you're supposed to be buried? Is that how far the casket goes down is six feet deep? Six feet under my friend, six feet under. Six feet under Deep 6 there you go. Poland made an app for quarantine coronavirus patients so you're told to download the app when you leave the hospital or whenever you get your test and you have to upload selfies on a regular basis. The Apple will go beep-beep time for your selfie And then you have to upload your selfie into the app so they can see where you are. You have to show the background, yeah. How about this for an idea? There's plenty of ideas believe me! Plenty of ideas... What?! What's this?? Yeah, you gotta use this- what!? Speak up!! What phone??? Do I...? Okay, I got my phone here

1:10:38 What am I supposed to do? Download the app. Well, how do I go about downloading the app? My flip phone doesn't do apps! Well even if you just say... If you have a flip phone boom you're done No no You show me how to do it and give him the flip phone No if you got the flip phone then you get your Corona bracelet Trust me. They're not gonna let you go infected human resource as you can get if you're old if you're over anything old You're all I'm old I can't use this app. Oh, and then say you wait, wait, you have to send a selfie every hour? Take take a picture of your dog. Every hour. I thought that's what you meant. That's what you meant. You want a picture my dog? I don't know why no, it's going to be the minority got Obama president.

1:11:37 Oh, Obama phone coming. That's what we're getting. There is no way. The public rebels against this sort of thing and the dumb... Yeah there are some dummies out there that'll go along with anything but Jace However I want to before you continue I gotta stop you because like I have to you brought something up with the Gates clips okay And it was Gates going on about how we need this kind of coordinated effort. And this is one of the things I want to get through today, which is some of the unexpected outcomes of this whole event and one of them—we've talked about it before—which is global governance. Oh did you see Gordon Brown? No! Do you have a clip? I wish had a clip now. Gordon Brown wrote a huge op-ed calling for global governance

CHAPTER 23 / 49 Discussion

UN Secretary-General, Gordon Brown and Global Government

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and former UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown have called for a coordinated global response and a "temporary form of global government" to manage the pandemic. The hosts argue that globalist entities are using the crisis to undermine national sovereignty and implement the policy outcomes simulated during the "Event 201" exercise.

antonio guterres· united nations· gordon brown· global governance· sovereignty· world health organization

1:12:27 We needed a global government during these trying times. And here it comes right from your boys in the UN, this is the PBS promotes global governance clip. Hold on now... What is it called? PBS! Okay Coronavirus pandemic has hit the globe at a time of massive refugee crises, confrontation between the world's great powers and armed conflicts in many countries. How does one coordinate a global response to an invisible enemy? For answers, I spoke earlier today with someone grappling with this and much more. He's Antonio Guterres, the secretary-general of the United Nations. Mr. Secretary General, thank you very much for joining us. You told the leaders of the world's richest nations yesterday that every country on Earth is in a fight against this coronavirus.

1:13:17 but not winning it. Why not? And do you think it's a fight that can be won? Well, this is a fight that can be won and the demonstration is that it has been on already in some parts of the world But it requires A very clear strategy and The strategy must be to suppress the virus and the strategy That needs to be adopted by all countries in coordination following the guidelines of World Health Organization And he goes on, it has to be done by all countries following the guidelines. These guys and I'm now convinced the media and this hatred of Trump in many ways is really the globalists fighting back that's why they don't care if they make any money! Here's The Guardian article Gordon Brown calls for global government to tackle coronavirus

1:14:07 as Gordon Brown urged world leaders to create a temporary form of global government to tackle the twin medical and economic crises caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. I mean, that's a panicky thing! Yeah, and the way it works is you try... Well look at the goal. It worked because of course this whole thing is overblown and so we put a global system together and it worked. We should just use it for more things and then pretty soon let them take over the place This is a futile, I mean I admire their attempts at this in some sick way but it's like... It's almost offensive when you start really looking into the loss of sovereignty and all the other things that reason nations exist in the first place. I mean it's just not happening.

1:15:04 I wish... I don't think they're done trying. They keep trying and they get a guy, you know Trump was a real problem because he is an anti-globalist from the get go yeah and even though he's an international business guy but he sees the problems well and meanwhile the Democrat Party is all in on this idea And I'll remind you just because it came from you The outcome of Bill Gates Open Society Institute Harvard Event 201 the outcome was global governance will bring everybody together and solve it That was their outcome the not at all what's happening in reality? That was their model, and that was I think what they were ready for or that's with the policy papers said Yeah, well. They were hoping for it yeah, you're gonna have to come up with a better bug than this one

CHAPTER 24 / 49 Discussion

The Division, Black Friday Pandemic and Cashless Society

A 2013 trailer for the video game "The Division" is highlighted for its "pre-programming" of a pandemic scenario starting on Black Friday via contaminated banknotes. The hosts connect this to recent World Health Organization warnings against touching cash, suggesting a push toward a cashless society and global governance. They note that the actual death tolls have failed to meet the catastrophic models predicted by such scenarios.

tom clancy· the division· black friday· banknotes· world health organization· cashless society

1:15:57 It does remind me though of the couple of, let's see if I got this. This is an interesting... What is it on here? Tom Clancy, this in 2013 there was this trailer made for The Division. Tom Clancy story and it kind of like was pre-programming everybody for the coronavirus thing and there's an element in here that makes it interesting play this clip as Tom Clancy. Money Americans can spend $90 billion dollars in a single day shopping last year 200 million people swarmed their local stores on November 23rd

1:16:33 We call that day Black Friday. Did you know that a flu virus can survive on the surface of a banknote for up to 17 days? One day there will be a pandemic It could begin during the crush of Black Friday sales. A pathogen will jump from tainted banknotes to human skin, onto food, toys, children and loved ones By the time patient zero feels the first sore throat millions of people will already be infected From this point the breakdown will happen fast Day one hospitals with which capacity

1:17:13 Panic will strike. Day 2, quarantine zones will be established. Resources will be rationed and transport will go into lockdown. Day 3, international trade will stop. The oil will dry up. The stock market will collapse. Day 4 the power will fail. Shells will be empty. The taps will run dry And once hunger and despair take hold, people will do anything for survival. By day five everyone will be a potential threat." It's kind of interesting how Black Friday would have put us in right kind of in the beginning if not the first week or two of spread in the US Yeah that was a nice coincidence I gotta now I got to talk to Pachanik

1:18:00 Now this 17-day virus lasting on a dollar bill, that's bullcrap. No of course but you that's just one of the obvious outcome this is not government mandated the people themselves are saying I don't want to touch cash they've been made and thank You World Health Organization Tedros he said it himself well don't touch the money Corona Cash everybody! You know what your Corona Cash again, leading to global governance. If you can get rid of the individual bills and that's what the Eurozone was all about. Thank you! And luckily a couple of countries including Great Britain didn't decide I don't want to be in the Eurozone because this is some sort of... This is not good and they didn't join so they still have the British pound and so they could extract themselves other countries that are part of the euro zone will have nothing but trouble trying to get out of EU They do not have their own money anymore

1:18:53 So there's a couple. Do you have some more of these things? I'd love to hear them, otherwise... I wish they had more of that one! It's just the numbers it reminds me- I'm gonna go back and get that event whatever 2010 or 2001 and get the projected numbers because by now if you use the models that were out there including the one that's now debunked we should have a million dead people in this country Yes yeah More! Where are they? Where's the million dead? Well, they're not coming 21 days from now. So mark your mark that calendar in 21 days That's a surge no, no, no, no this search what that's what Cuomo said yeah

CHAPTER 25 / 49 Discussion

Taipei Act, Taiwan Sovereignty and US-China Relations

President Trump signed the Taipei Act, which threatens consequences for nations that fail to recognize Taiwan's independence. Following the signing, the US sent a warship through the Taiwan Strait. Despite these aggressive diplomatic and military moves, Trump maintained that he has a "great relationship" with Chinese President Xi Jinping following a lengthy phone call.

taipei act· taiwan· donald trump· xi jinping· taiwan strait· south china sea

1:19:38 Well, the surge is being created by the testing so it's completely within our own hands. You want a surge? Test more! Right you test more. Although Amy says just the opposite... Yeah no testing that's why we have a surge It's worthless I hope to take away for some people in the world of this exercise and I say exercise on purpose Is that you really can't trust your normal information sources the way we used too And luckily what we're finding out is, we are pretty good at... We as a collective. We are pretty good at parsing information

1:20:17 And it's not like it's secretive, and sound like its written on you know web pages with dot HTM extensions and blink tags. No! It said the University of Oxford Press now its actual information put out by the people who put up the misinformation in the first place your media is failing you to a huge degree Now, I think we're decent at calling some of it. We have our biases of course. We call as much as we can to get some real numbers but what happened with the model where we started the show with today is irrefutable! The numbers and... The Brits are pissed they're like what? What?! You shut down the country and we were worried that half a million Brits would die and now you're saying 20 thousand and well doesn't look like we gonna make that. What!?

1:21:09 So this information is not even being broadcast the way it should be. This is very good news in the world of lockdown, shutdown shut-ins and social distancing! But what else didn't we hear? Well there was the Taipei Act that was signed. The Taipei Act which basically threatens consequences for any nation that fails to recognize Taiwan as its own independent state. We're looking at you China! Oh geez... And immediately Trump said a warship through the Taiwan Strait to just show that we can do it, while at the same time he's saying yeah I have a great relationship with President Xi. We talked for an hour and no it was even better than that hold on a second I think I have a clip of this it was pretty funny maybe I don't have it so I thought I clipped it

CHAPTER 26 / 49 Discussion

Media Boycott, Sean Hannity and White House Briefings

Mainstream networks like CNN and MSNBC briefly stopped carrying President Trump's daily briefings live, accusing him of spreading misinformation. In response, Trump granted an exclusive interview to Sean Hannity on Fox News. The hosts describe how the networks quickly reversed their boycott once they realized they were losing viewership and access to the President's primary communications.

sean hannity· fox news· cnn· msnbc· white house briefings· narcissism

1:22:12 Oh yeah, here it is. Mr President thank you I apparently heard you in the press conference You had a 9pm call with president Xi of China Let me start there how did that go? Well because of you i made it at 1030 so that just shows you the power of the phone That just shows when we have the number one rated show on television I better change things around now I'm talking to him at 1030 right after this call I'll be talking to him Now, I had to mention something here. He went on Hannity for a political reason it was really funny that should be people should at least know about this A number of the networks decided they're not going to listen to Trump's briefings press conferences anymore All he does is goes up there and lies Lies! So we're going... And so their technique The idea was let's not

1:23:05 Let's stop giving him the attention that he needs so much because he is a narcissist. Let's just stop going to these press, this an idea because we blame ourselves for being elected president let's stop going to these and Trump says yeah that great and says no one is gonna be here I'm gonna go on Hannity And so Hannity gets this huge exclusive, it's like the exclusive press conference with Hannity only. And all the news network heads of the network go what are you guys doing? How come you're giving Hannity this whole thing? You're not even going to see what president has to say after report on it and it became a big brouhaha in the media about oh my god we got okay well we were backing off on that idea

1:23:50 But it was very funny. Well, they already tried this once when CNN and MSNBC didn't carry the briefing live that must have been Tuesday I think? Tuesday or Wednesday? Yeah that's when it began actually. But then but then the next day Trump did the exclusive with Fox and the day after that everyone was like oh shit we better cover it! But yeah this is insane and I hear the same... And is Fauci lying? Is Birx lying, is the CDC director lying. Is everybody lying? Who cares we got our own facts over here back to Taiwan so there be I said they're big things happening here this is all this happened within the past few days the Taipei Act Trump sends a warship not just some clunker through the Taiwan Straits also European and US

CHAPTER 27 / 49 Discussion

Saudi-Russia Oil War, Petrodollar and Gold Standard Rumors

The ongoing oil price war between Russia and Saudi Arabia has led to a global glut and falling prices. The hosts discuss theories that the US and Russia may be working together to bankrupt Saudi Arabia and undermine the petrodollar. They also explore rumors that the CARES Act contains provisions that could eventually lead to the US returning to a gold standard, noting that China and Russia have been aggressively accumulating gold.

saudi arabia· russia· oil prices· petrodollar· gold standard· cares act

1:24:46 let me get the exact quote here, I want to make sure i get it right. Have refused Saudi oil so no more Saudi oil which of course is making the price drop even more because now we have a refusal they've got a huge glut remember this this is the thing that was going on in the background that really tripped the market badly was the the so-called war between Russia and Saudi Arabia And Russia, my feeling now is Russia and the US are playing together to bankrupt Saudi Arabia because what is now coming out

1:25:27 Is that there could be, I got to get these terms right. Like an irreparable trade indifference or something like... I like indifference! That would be better wouldn't it? Um that uh.. I think the opposite may be true by the way just before as you continue they may be trying to bankrupt Russia Uh either way So someone's going to lose. It is not going to be the US, but Russia is routing their oil to Europe and China so it appears that That the Saudis are being targeted And this would this could and listen it's a Sputnik report from art you know from Russia? So you understand the slant? It could be that This puts the petrodollar into some peril

1:26:20 The Riyadh may not be able to be pegged to the dollar as it has been, which was in 1973 when we start this Petrodollar. It's possible that peg may no longer work because they're just not going to be able to handle that for their economy Which brings us to... Not technically in the second half but There's a lot of talk out there that Trump would love to see the dollar get back on the gold standard or a new gold standard and there is actually some weird reference to the The Gold is it the Gold Standard Act. Let me see what it's called What was used to repatriate all the gold? I have no idea. I don't remember that Of course, it was 19th. The Gold Standard Act was 19 When everyone had to give up their gold

1:27:18 Well that was in the 30s, that was Roosevelt. Yeah, 30's. The pegging to gold was demolished by Nixon much later Right but the act itself in the 30s there is a reference to that in the CARES Act and it inserts the Coronavirus Act into the Gold Standard Act which I don't understand...I'm going to hopefully find out tonight because the former New York banker his wife and two of us have a Zoom video date tonight! How about that? Well, they just come over. No no no! They invited us to a Zoom video date where we're all going to have a glass of wine together on the zoom. That's gross. It's great I can't wait it's the most hipster thing in the world to do

1:28:06 So, it's that is the... there's a theory out there. It's certainly if you see how much China and Russia have been gobbling up gold as fast as they can that's been going on for awhile for years I think whatever price just give it to me Is that this may be way too for Trump wishful thinking or not To get the dollar back onto some form of gold standard Well, If you listen at these reports which I have four clips On dollar is king and this is a bunch of stuff you will not hear in our media about the power of the dollar there was absolutely zero reason to do what you suggest especially when you consider modern monetary theory and that money is not

1:28:52 necessarily something that has to be attached to something like gold. I'm not buying that so let's listen to these clips because this is very interesting, this is dollar is king AJ nine trillion dollars and counting that's what rich nations have spent so far on the coronavirus pandemic They're trying to make sure there's a functioning economy as they get to grips with the outbreak. The damage done is likely to surpass the financial crisis, maybe even the Great Depression. What is known? It's the worst economic crisis in the last 70 years! At this time there's a rush to safety – the 11-year bull run in US stock markets is

CHAPTER 28 / 49 Discussion

US Dollar Dominance, Safe Haven Status and Emerging Markets

Despite the global economic crisis, the US dollar has strengthened significantly as investors seek a safe haven. International reports from Al Jazeera indicate that the dollar is "crushing" other currencies, including the British pound and the Russian ruble. The hosts suggest that the strength of the dollar allowed for the massive $2 trillion bailout without immediate inflationary consequences.

1:28:06 So, it's that is the... there's a theory out there. It's certainly if you see how much China and Russia have been gobbling up gold as fast as they can that's been going on for awhile for years I think whatever price just give it to me Is that this may be way too for Trump wishful thinking or not To get the dollar back onto some form of gold standard Well, If you listen at these reports which I have four clips On dollar is king and this is a bunch of stuff you will not hear in our media about the power of the dollar there was absolutely zero reason to do what you suggest especially when you consider modern monetary theory and that money is not

The damage done is likely to surpass the financial crisis, maybe even the Great Depression. What is known? It's the worst economic crisis in the last 70 years! At this time there's a rush to safety – the 11-year bull run in US stock markets is

1:29:31 over and there's one safe haven everyone is banking on, and it's not gold. It's the dollar for all the talk that the dollar would lose its reserve currency status. It's proved to be just that talk Let's take a look at some examples now. Emerging markets have borne the brunt of the rush for dollars Indonesia Zupia lost almost 14% of its value since the beginning of the year The Russian ruble and Mexican peso have lost 1 fifth of their values The problem for emerging markets, they might want to cut interest rates to stimulate corona hit economies

1:30:08 But that would undermine their currencies further. And interest payments on dollar-denominated debt has just soared, unbalancing finances. Sterling fell more than 10 percent Or to a low of $1.14, a level last seen in 1985? The UK's divorce from the European Union has broken the resilience of the pound which was considered to be tethered to the fortunes of the continent Well not anymore! The best performing currency just happens to be the Argentine peso Best performing of course in the sense it's fallen the least compared to other Latin American nations I will have you know

1:30:49 I have the red book, my own version which i got off of Amazon. The No Agenda Journal by the anonymous producer and I put it in here March 29th just so I have a copy of it dollar to gold standard after oil glut destroys petrodollar So that's just in there recorded in the book Good If you listen to this report, which comes from a Middle Eastern source with more objectivity than we seem to have in this country. It seems as though the dollar is crushing it And by that, if they're gonna be crushing it that means the petrodollar is gonna be crushing it. So this dollar of ours is just becoming worth a fortune which I... One of the reasons I believe we could do this two trillion dollar bailout is because unbeknownst to the American public, this dollar of ours is becoming so strong and its so dominant that it's pretty much put everybody back 30 years insofar as their catching up. Oh! I have all the power!

CHAPTER 29 / 49 Discussion

Jamil Ahmed, Dollar Supremacy and Infrastructure Rebuilding

Currency strategist Jamil Ahmed explains that the US dollar remains the "king" of global finance, with no immediate threat from the Chinese Yuan or the Euro. The hosts discuss how a strong dollar makes imports cheaper, potentially allowing the US to rebuild its infrastructure at a lower cost, though it may eventually require a "magical turnaround" to weaken the dollar and boost exports.

jamil ahmed· fxtm· reserve currency· yuan· euro· imports· exports

1:31:52 The dollar has all the power. Now, the dollar has been the world's leading currency for more than a century today. More than 60% of all foreign bank reserves are in dollars. Let's find out what happened to all those challenges to the dollar's crown with Jamil Ahmed. He is the global head of currency strategy and market research at FXTM. He joins us via Skype from London. Good to have you with us, Jamil. Well, this crisis has shown it's just been a lot of talk about the dollar ending. It is still the world's

1:32:28 Reserve currency of choice, right? Absolutely yes. Listen the dollars not only remains the king if this was a game of thrones The dollar is on the iron throne and has been on the die iron friend for an extremely long period time It dominates all of the seven kingdoms under it And this has been something that's in being in play for close to a century now since war times and we are still still progress, but the dollar is still funded everywhere globally for so many different reasons. And we just look at the dollar performance over the past week – we had the dollar strengthen by close to 5% on a weekly basis that's its strongest performance since 2008. Currency such as the British pound as a result of the dollar domination plunged to levels they have not been seen in 35 years

1:33:22 Gold recently had its worst year since the late 1980s and even the Australian dollar has lost over 20% year to day. There is no contender to the dollar, this is the end game but the dollar strength is so strong right now it's superior like if you're a sports fan it's like watching Liverpool in the Premier League this season there's no second challenger. You said that this is the endgame hang on Jamil does that Does that mean the Yuan has squandered its chance? There was a time when some were predicting the Yuan could be the world's reserve currency. This is still unlikely and we don't see this for, you know even there's been a possibility for the next 20 or 30 years. For as much progress as the Chinese yuan and the Chinese economy has made to global contributions over the past twenty years it still has so much more further to go. For example if we look at

1:34:18 Payments of the dollars, we look at it as foreign exchange reserves international debt, international loans, foreign exchange turnover. The dollar is still supreme and actually the only second character that can come into play on this is the euro. Well let me ask you a question... If the dollar is so incredibly strong, is that not detrimental to our forthcoming new manufacturing base that will have to also be exported in order for it to be profitable as we use some of these materials in our own country which have formerly been 100% outsourced? I think we'll come back to at least a 33%, or more. A lot of things being done in the country but that makes our goods more expensive

1:35:04 For export. For export, but we're not an exporting country We're an importer so right now it makes the imports cheaper So we can load up on imports and rebuild our infrastructure on cheap imports because it's gonna be a lot cheaper since our dollars were so much, and we can build up our infrastructure that way. And then let it slowly turn around go the other way so we can make our exports more appealing. How do you do that magical turnaround? Go the other way which means weakening the dollar. They just manipulate but they don't have to do too much of it because if everything else is so destroyed, you know, you can pretty much control everything by

1:35:41 Well, the way we always do. We loan people money! We loan them our valuable dollars and... Wait wait wait wait I thought we just went over there and kicked someone's ass? Well, we can do that too but that's only if you don't take off our loans Oh if you don't take our loans to go over there and kick your ass? Yeah, I thought this is what we did man Hey hey look at our big guns so we got the strongest military in the world Okay borrow our money. I gotcha okay We flip the script is what you're saying. It's a big flip, it's a big flip! It appears like we've managed to pull these stunts over the years ever since 1918 or actually since the foundation of the Federal Reserve but let's play part three of this and get it so everyone... This should be a confidence builder for people listening to this show But it's been a bit of a disaster this rising dollar a disaster for emerging markets though right?

CHAPTER 30 / 49 Discussion

Federal Reserve, Quantitative Easing and Global Thirst for Dollars

The Federal Reserve's commitment to "quantitative easing infinity" has failed to dampen the global demand for US dollars. As emerging markets face a recipe for disaster due to the pandemic and recession, the "thirst for dollars" continues because the currency is fundamental to international loans, debt, and oil transactions. The hosts clarify the historical meaning of the term "greenback" while discussing current market liquidity.

federal reserve· quantitative easing· greenback· liquidity· global recession· interest rates

1:36:31 It is. We have a recipe for disaster right now when it comes to emerging markets performance in their currencies, you have a global disease outbreak that is a health disaster this is going to contribute to a global recession which means there's lower growth everywhere As a result of this, stock markets have been in free fall which essentially means there has been no appetite towards emerging markets because they are seen as riskier assets that you don't invest in uncertain times. And with this you've got the dollar that is strengthening across the board just to name some of the casualties. The Russian ruble has declined by close to 30% this year. The Brazilian real as much

1:37:09 to. The Indian rupee has hit a record low, the South African rand has weakened by 20 percent and there's been simply no end in sight when it comes to prisoners against the dollar's reign here all emerging market currencies have declined year-to-date and even those that haven't declined as much such as the Malaysian ringgit as one example it still has declined by beyond five percent man we're peaking We're peak dollar. Well, what this is doing of course is playing into the V theory of the stock market recovery because you have like- Call it a theory! Where are you going to put your money when you finally have a place to put it? But you're not gonna have a lot of it so that's why I don't think its gonna be as V as you and the banker like to believe but then there's this little element which comes in which is... It's not a catch 22

1:38:02 It's not a catch 22 this last clip it's kind of like a vicious cycle i don't even know how to describe it but. It's Horowitz and I talk about this. Why are people putting their money in the American stock market? Because it is the only thing you can put it into that has any reliability or what, but listen to this. Now explain this for us. The Federal Reserve is pumping dollars as fast as they can into the system. It even gave a commitment for what has been termed as quantitative easing infinity Yet the thirst for dollars doesn't end. Why? Essentially because everybody wants a dollar, cash is king right now and by cash that means we're sticking dollars underneath our pillowcases that's essentially what does...what the theory is in the market right now. Essentially even despite

1:38:54 Sorry, despite two emergency Federal Reserve interest rate cuts the Federal Reserve announcing a huge stimulus program of quantitative easing everybody still wants the greenback. That's because the greenback is funded in so many different methods from loans to debt to oil transactions gold you name it everything's dollar dominated And at the same point, it's again been a world reserve currency for a century since war times and that will not change anytime soon which gives precedent towards why everybody still wants the US dollar. I wish you wouldn't call it a greenback thats just factually incorrect...I don't like it

CHAPTER 31 / 49 Discussion

BlackRock, Federal Reserve Nationalization and Trump's Influence

A Bloomberg article suggests that President Trump has effectively nationalized parts of the Federal Reserve by involving BlackRock to manage assets on behalf of the Treasury. While some analysts believe this gives Trump unprecedented power over the markets, a former New York banker interviewed by the hosts suggests the current intervention is comparable to, or even smaller than, the 2008 financial crisis bailout.

blackrock· federal reserve· treasury department· dow jones· 2008 bailout· nationalization

1:39:34 Okay, the greenback was something very specific which I did like the idea of the Greenback. That's because the back of the bill was green Yeah, but you know they say dollars greenbacks not enough it's not the same thing Well that's mighty interesting I thought so Why do you want the dollar? Because we want the dollar. That was the kicker to me, it's like what… Right right well it's interesting how this and this is funny there was a Bloomberg article which I immediately sent to the former New York banker so what the hell is going on with this and the article went kind of something like this Trump has effectively nationalized the parts of the Federal Reserve by bringing BlackRock in to manage billions of dollars and bonds and assets in the market on behalf of the Federal Reserve. And so I guess somehow, the Treasury bought into it, so they have some say over it. The conclusion from the Bloomberg article was kind of written by a hackish and-the-Fed type guy

1:40:38 is that the ending was congratulations your new Fed chairman Donald J. Trump who would then you know use the BlackRock power which is a pretty powerful outfit to manipulate and push the Dow Jones up to 40,000 plus It could all happen, but the former New York banker laughed his ass off at that and he says it's interesting that people think this is so much bigger than the 2008 bailout. He says – he doesn't think so – he thinks its comparable may even be a little bit less because there was way different types of assets that were distressed in the 2008 crunch

1:41:18 So, it may look big on the piece of paper 2.2 trillion and the 4 trillion for the Fed but what really happened in the back end of I guess TARP and 2008 bailout was just astronomical so I think that seems to not be happening You look at Trump you think God the guy really loves America. He really loves the dollar would he would he do it? No, I think your point is very valid why Why go to a gold standard with everybody else and and that may be the globalist theme actually maybe the globalists want that

1:42:01 Well, the globalists don't like what's going on. No because and they don't like this dollar situation which they only want to talk about in our media with this guy what they just explained on our... Why aren't we celebrating that? Because it would look good for, it'd be good for Trump. We cannot celebrate anything that makes Trump get re-elected. Although I don't even know why they even think that he's not going to get re-elected? Where is Biden by the way? We'll get to that in a moment after I first thank you for your courage and say In The Morning To You The Man Who Put The C In Covid Cash!

CHAPTER 32 / 49 Discussion

No Agenda Community, Album Art and Dvorak's Law

The hosts promote the No Agenda community platforms, including the live stream and social network. They praise the episode 1228 album art by "Comicstripblogger," which depicted "Dvorak's Law" (the correlation between economic downturns and the attractiveness of sex workers). The discussion touches on the "postmodern" nature of the show's improvisational format and the value-for-value model.

no agenda social· no agenda stream· comicstripblogger· dvorak's law· podcasting· value for value

1:42:45 You okay? I'm okay. In the morning to you, in the morning to all ships and sea boats on the ground feeding the air subs of the world and then all the dames and knights out there! In the morning to our troll room Troll count here we go let's see we have 1938 trolls in the troll room right now almost almost at the 2000 Fantastic. Hello trolls! You can find your fellow trolls at noagendastream.com that is where everybody hangs out during the live shows and not just our show there's a lot of live shows Wednesday night, Nick The Rat smoke a bone and listen to Nick The Rat on the livestream get in the troll room it's all on the same page and hang out with everybody. And while you're there, ask for an invite to noagendasocial.com It's kind of our delayed response mechanism where we can also post stuff People have jobs they're looking for jobs jobs jobs jobs testing testing test You can get post something on No Agenda it's so nice

1:43:37 Someone said, hey do you know a dude named Ben who can help me with some problem I'm having with Windows 98 and WAV files? Yeah go to KnowAgenda. And i used to have to think about it... Why is the little fart did help you there? Well I wanted before the email to you but I decided uh... Go to KnowAgendaSocial.com and the answer by the way is upgrade And in the morning to our artist for episode 1228 we titled that stunning, stunning, stunning, stunning, stunning, stunning. Nicole Walls was honored with that and this album art which we like to change with every single episode because it draws attention when we post the show certainly in all podcast apps that now adhere to the standard of showing the new art

1:44:30 Comic strip blogger nailed it. Nailed it! which I think John, who critiques the artists with the most knowledge will explain why this was so incredibly good. But it was Dvorak's law portrayed very simply with the chart down, the hookers getting better looking and cheaper and it just had everything in it! It was dynamite! Well it was done in a silhouette fashion too which was simplistic but is also stands out as art And it was just well done in a lot of different ways. He had a lot of elements in there that were just, really a well-done piece. Which he can do! He doesn't like to do them. That's what I want to ask you about Whenever he really tries to do something and is like okay... Okay! I'm going to make rather great Albemar this time huh? Watch me with my talents

1:45:28 It sucks. But when he does something that's almost a throwaway, and I know because he'll post and just put this together before going to sleep And it's funny and it's hilarious the stuff that he tries to target and tries to create Well we talked about this as a practical of our show We do not really do anything other than chat. We have our own agendas. We bring our own clips and then we add Lib an entire three-hour show twice a week with very good material and it's all off the cuff. And we are forced to do it that way because we know that if we don't do it this way, it would be overproduced and crappy which is what most podcasts are like. It's stiff. Most of them yeah, it's true. Most of them are crappy! Yeah. And they'd be stiff, they wouldn't have any flow and course yeah, we do get into tips once in a while that come and go but that's beside the point sometimes

1:46:23 Technically, that's good broadcasting. Thank you. No one wants to admit it they're so triggered by reality You'd figure people who watch reality shows would be used to some actual reality guess what? You're getting on television It's not the same thing So the point is is that as a fractal it's like The best material actually much of it has developed on the show on-the-fly Yes, based on going back and forth in this and so people who sit down to just get a quick inspiration And crank a piece of art out often will win this competition Because they're not overthinking it and if we overthink the show or if we over think anything Which is the modern? This is a very postmodern way of doing everything. I

1:47:05 And overthinking is a real, is a detriment. Yeah this is a true postmodern performance This is not a pod- it's a podcast but we're performing But podcasting in itself is postmodern so... And by the way yes this is exactly how Comics for Blogger talks! Yeah it is and people have confirmed it with me He used to have a podcast himself What was it? The Anti No Agenda what was it? Yo agenda With the candy man and it was I actually enjoyed it. No rag on us and talk about all they did was bitch That was good, and it was you know They don't do this they suck and what turned out is very hard to do two shows a week Actually they started right at the beginning When we started and then once we went to two shows a week They tried to keep up in there or you know? They couldn't do it It's

1:48:00 Very hard. That was the part that tickled me the most. And analyze six hours of material, it's not possible. It's not that easy! We're on to other topics by the time their corrections are put in place. Analyze three hours of analysis... Constantly analyzing analysis is not a good thing But thank you, Comicstripblogger. You know that we love you. We do and CSB has been with us for a long time! A decade he's been with the Daily Source Code for longer Yeah? Yeah. You brought him with ya. He's like a virus. He's like a virus but doesn't go away but he's a force of nature

1:48:41 And we love them and especially are very appreciative of the artwork. And this one in particular, it's just one of those that everyone went, oh my God! We know what's going on here. The insiders who understand Dvorak's law loved it And even people who'd never heard of Dvorak's Law was like, that's got to be something interesting. So I think it helps the show as does all of the art that we choose carefully We choose it with ever-changing reasons But you know on the fly as John just explained and I want to thank Comixer blogger but all of the artists who are always diligently Just trying to get something good in there. It's a competition, but it's also open twice a week and we use the The art for newsletter And of course no agenda shop comm uses it for mugs and t-shirts and hats and hoodies and the artists that talk amongst themselves There's a small community there Oh, and its and I'm part of that is on know agenda social calm which we can't just just can't promote enough and thanks Aaron er for keeping that running as well

Dame Sheila, Portugal Lockdown and San Francisco Homeless Hotels

Dame Sheila provides a "boots on the ground" report from Lisbon, Portugal, contrasting its quiet but open atmosphere with the strict military-enforced lockdown in Spain. In San Francisco, the city is reportedly converting luxury hotels like the Hyatt into homeless shelters and instructing police not to respond to robberies under $2,500, leading to concerns about rising crime.

lisbon· spain· peter hitchens· san francisco· homeless shelters· hyatt· crime

2:04:06 Why anyone would clip it is another question. The question is someone's sanity. Dame Sheila, the lady of Lisbon or Lisboa. $200 and she's in the UK right now according to at least going to this hi John and Adam Boots on the ground from Portugal with a bit of info from Spain too. We are fortunate to be living in the center of Lisbon, which is deathly quiet but we are able to walk and cycle around as much as we want yesterday. We went for a drive Adam insert your audience's shocked sound here please out to Cintra

2:04:46 Out to Centro, which is normally packed with tourists. It was completely deserted and we had a wonderful walk in the forest and drove back no issues This would be impossible in Spain Which has been on full lockdown since March 16th or thereabouts Our friends have an army truck outside their apartment in Spain And they're allowed 10 minutes outside each time to walk their dog It's gone insane up there. We have a house in the north of Spain, but we won't be able to go there until mid-April maybe To be honest after all this shit show I'd be quite likely to sell it The Spanish government along with others will not come out of this well since the people realize that they've been duped Or should I say? Should I say if and it is a big if

2:05:39 There's a British journalist, Peter Hitchens. We're familiar with him? Yes That was the other Hitchens brother who as far as I can tell is the only voice of sanity in the UK mainstream media Yeah we've put his blog post in the show notes I recommend, I haven't read that. I recommend to fellow UK producers to follow him on Twitter also UK column is a great source of news anyway thanks for the reality sanity nor gender realities the best podcast in the universe especially in these trying times I for one will not be getting that vaccine no jingles but lots of karma and I can request it though agenda producers who are having or living in lockdown towns and citizens I'm sorry in cities to buy some

2:06:26 bird seed and go out and feed all the birds that are currently starving to death as their food supply parents are leftovers and rubbish from eating outside have just disappeared. Thank you for your courage Dame Sheila. That's so nice Dame Sheila, Lady of Lisboa thank you very much anyway think that's the homeless of course also starting to have problems now because there is no food Well, in San Francisco they're taking care of the problem. They're taking the hotels which are shut down and they're turning the Hyatt, The Grand Hyde into a homeless shelter putting all the people into rooms... With room service? Do they get room service?

2:07:08 If they call down maybe I have no idea how far it goes, but they're moving them all in there And the city will pay for that and is also another little breakthrough in the city apparently they've decided that no No It used to be a nine hundred dollars or something like that if you did damage the police won't investigate now they've jacked up to the d.a who doesn't want to arrest anybody says it's just please do not respond to any robberies are anything of his under twenty five hundred dollars Gosh. So now they're every shop that was left open before they shut everything down, which they had to do and but the grocery stores are still subject to this people just going in loading up their carts and stealing everything And this is encouraged by the city of San Francisco and the city says they will reimburse you if this happens to you

Alright there you go Thank you, thank you. Our executive producers and associate executive producers really came through today You'll see the second donation segment is going to be quite short This may be the tipping point for us of kind of expecting it I'm not quite sure how everyone's doing although I know a lot of people who don't have income right now A lot

Airline Industry Crisis, 9/11 Comparison and Recovery Projections

The airline industry is facing its worst crisis in history, with travel doubling every 15 years prior to the pandemic. Analysts on Al Jazeera compare the current situation to the five-year recovery period following 9/11 and the two-year recovery after the 2008 financial crisis. The hosts discuss the tiny profit margins of economy travel and the potential for airlines to go out of business without government intervention.

2:08:34 A lot of them young. Hopefully the crisis checks will be coming in the mail soon, who knows how long that will take? It's happening everywhere! So those you who are supporting the show to the best of your ability thank you very much it means an incredible amount to us but to all people who produce this show and if you'd like to do that for our Thursday Show please check out this fab website devorak.org slash n-a And remember during these times on lockdown its easier to hit people in the mouth virtually Our formula is this we go out we hit people in the mouth Dropped a penny All right, where were we? Well I got another report. We can do yes This is

2:09:39 Because it's again, we talk about these changes that are gonna occur because we're stuck with these changes. They were gonna be permanent some of them or not so much let's listen to what's going to happen with the airline industries another special report there was a half hour on again Al Jazeera which seems to be the only place I'm gonna get any news other than Trump Trump Trump Let's start with airline travel doubles every 15 years. Airline travel double every 15 years? Anil was making the point that people might not want to get back on a plane again, they might want to do a staycation, they might wanna go someplace on a bullet train so tell me Alex how did the big hub airports as well justify carrying on with their expansion plans if nobody is gonna get on that 747 or that A380

2:10:29 I'm optimistic. I think there will be a queue of people waiting to get on that 747 or A380 and we know history demonstrates this bounce back not just for the economic side of things but actually for the fact that the large majority of the world now are in home isolation and they will be waiting for the day that they have been given the all clear, so they can travel to new territories and see the world... Is this guy in Oompa Loompa? Sorry, but he really sounds like an Oompa Loompa. He does! I didn't think of that. It's not done we'll let him finish. And they will be waiting for the day that they have been given the all clear so they can travel to new territories and see the world and we will see that bounce back. We know within

2:11:12 the Suddenly, it all seems irrelevant as to who has the best type of seat or the most recline. And actually airlines are doing all they can to convince you that their aircraft are the cleanest and that their airports are the most hygienic. There's definitely been a shift here but I do believe that bounce back will occur not just on an economic side of things but for the public too Okay, so that's a nine-month lag which means and with the low gas prices this tells me there's going to be some dirt cheap flights. Yeah they're gonna do it. Everything to get you on a flip plane. Now let's go on to the other one this is part two and this is talking about what was the lag after 9 11? And what was the lag after 2008?

2:12:12 This is an airline travel after 9-11, two. Then you take the next big crisis which was the 2008 financial crisis and there the industry had a almost...you know in the first year a significant hit. That's the second clip I'm sorry that's right yeah you're right you're right airline travel after 9 11 profits start. In London would it be fair to say that this is the worst crisis to hit the airline world in as much as aviation you know when you get your bum on a seat that's relatively speaking of very very cheap way to move around the world anyway. The profit margins are so tiny if you're flying an economy down the back over full A380,

2:12:53 say Etihad, Qatar Airways, BA whoever they're not making a lot of money on that seat and on top of that you've got to convince people who now cannot afford to fly who don't want to fly to start flying again at some point in the future so all these carriers have got to plan on taking a massive hit that might be so big they have to face the prospect of going out of business Yeah, I think you're right. This is not the first major crisis that the industry has faced and actually the industry's very resilient. You go back to 9-11, the industry had a significant hit there in terms of global profits and if you look at what IATA published it took about five years after 9-11 for the industry to recover and become profitable again

CHAPTER 37 / 49 Discussion

High-Speed Rail, Airline Routes and The War on Cash

The hosts discuss the failure of public high-speed rail projects in California and the emergence of private rail options. They also note that airlines are maintaining empty flights to avoid losing valuable airport slots. Meanwhile, the "war on cash" continues as tech companies like Square receive FDIC approval to operate as banks, further integrating digital finance.

high-speed rail· airline slots· square· fdic· banking· cashless society

2:13:43 Any mention in that interview of people putting puts on the airline industry before this happened? Before it was not a now for coronavirus. No, okay No But you had a lot opportunity to do it I mean wasn't like you had to do it before the virus you had until the oil crash That was your you had a window than that was the moment long and I just want to say that The airline industry, certainly in the United States is a part of our infrastructure. That is pretty much a government business And it has to be. Yeah, because the country's big and you can't...the trains don't work you got mountains It just..you can have high-speed rail that you know even though whatever happened with that? Oh! The high speed rail from New York to LA They're talking about the uh the highs I read an article of a high speed train those supposed to be taking from what was it Los Angeles to San Francisco Apparently now it's gonna be a private train from Los Angeles to Las Vegas

2:14:45 Private. Private train. Well, let's play part two of this and get another data point. Then you take the next big crisis which was the 2008 financial crisis And there, the industry had a almost in the first year significant hit bigger than probably 9-11. But the recovery period was within about two years and this is a slightly different crisis and I think there's possibly three reasons why this is a slightly different crisis one is that we have restriction globally from various governments about movement of people so even if people wanted to fly they can't

2:15:28 The second major reason is because a lot of people around the world in various sectors have been laid off, they're unemployed. That's going to hit their personal finances and the amount of disposable income is reduced dramatically and I think the third major impact on demand is going to be once this crisis begins to recover, what about some of the perceptions of passengers regarding health concerns? Is sitting in an aircraft cabin for several hours are you more likely to catch the virus and I think those three things have to improve dramatically for the industry for demand to pick up again. So it's going to be interesting it's not a type of crisis that we've seen in the past

2:16:09 quickly will the industry recover? Is this going to be quite a long recovery like we saw after 9.11 or is this going to be a recovery that it's going to bounce back relatively quickly But what are they really talking about? Are they talking, I mean they're talking about profits and finance or they're talking about routes you know because that's more important to me is can we get everywhere the way we used to. I don't give a crap if they make money or not! We bail them out for 40 years i don't care. I think the routes aren't going to change that much there's just not gonna be that frequency but usually they keep the routes because you don't want to lose those routes yeah yeah that's why you give up a route you give up again you can't get it again but uh frequency is an issue

2:16:49 Which is again, which is similar. You'll lose that slot too but they can't fly a bunch of empty planes around so they're gonna have to change these but everyone's gonna have to back off I think there'll be an aggressive airline just decide to take a beating and Just keep a lot of routes going But a lot of frequency in a lot of routes and just take a beating I guess if they're big enough They can do that Well, anyway it's gonna be a shakeout. There's gonna be a shakeout when you got already covered there's gonna be a shake out in cash the war on cash is continuing even though this dollar so strong the I read that Square think it was square has a Got a license to be a bank

NFL Draft, Roger Goodell and Disciplinary Action

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell issued a memo stating that the 2020 NFL Draft will proceed as scheduled in late April. Goodell warned that public discussion of issues relating to the draft's timing by team officials would be grounds for disciplinary action. The hosts criticize the league's "shut up slave" mentality and its insistence on normalcy during the pandemic.

2:17:34 Well, there should be a bank. Yep! Well it's not all that easy to just say I want to be a bank. I wanna be a bank! Here... Square clear by regulators to open a bank Yes, they get FDIC approval I guess is what they mean. That's what the FDIC to get the FDIC yeah that's a big deal so with it That's gonna those guys are gonna you know they all want to be your bank This is everybody wants to be a bank here at comes New York. I have one more clip about an industry that is affected by this permanently and in this case It's the NFL Yeah, I'm running the NFL is so oblivious They actually think

2:18:17 that everything's fine, it's gonna be a football season. It'll be just... You know that people are gonna go right back into being huge crowds and all the rest and I'm not convinced of this but the NFL is totally convinced of it and if you start to say anything bad about it and your member of the club as it were, you're gonna get disciplined. The draft will be held from April 23rd to the 25th. Goodell said in a memo Thursday that the NFL Management Council Executive Committee was quote unanimous and unequivocal that the draft should go forward as scheduled he also added

2:18:53 Everyone recognizes that the public health conditions are highly uncertain and there is no assurance that we can select a different date and be confident the conditions will be significantly more favorable than they are today. I also believe that the draft can serve a very positive purpose for our clubs, our fans and the country at large. And many of you have agreed public discussion of issues relating to the draft serves no useful purpose and is grounds for disciplinary action Shut up slave! No kidding. Wow, yeah that's the NFL a bunch of you know creeps How is the NBA by the way? how come half of the teams don't have the Rona? A lot of teams have... But not like it should be. Sweaty sweaty men bumping together all the time slapping each other around

CHAPTER 39 / 49 Discussion

Earth Hour, Climate Change and Marketing Failures

The annual "Earth Hour" event is criticized as a missed marketing opportunity. The hosts argue that organizers failed to effectively link the stay-at-home lockdowns and the resulting reduction in pollution to their environmental message. They describe the promotion as a "total fail" that relied on outdated tactics like turning off building lights.

2:19:53 Slapping each other, slapping their asses. Tell me about it John. Tell me about the sweaty men rocking around. Hey we missed it man! We missed what? I got the clip every year we talk about and somehow just got slipped right by us apparently there wasn't didn't entail enough Trump hate. Oh no this impossible that we miss this you're right not enough Trump hate therefore they should have upped that this year They could have found an angle, I don't know why they didn't. You know what clip i'm talking about A symbolic annual event with powerful images Earth Hour has been a moment for millions of people to come together and think about our impact on the world around us This year's event takes on new meaning as billions take part in another shared experience In light with all that is happening with the coronavirus Why not turn this into a super special activity With your household you can prepare a candlelit dinner as it's at 8 30 in the evening

2:20:50 Switch off all electricity, enjoy each other's company and why not talk about all the wonderful gifts that Mother Nature has to offer. And all the things we look forward to doing once... If this was their spokesperson no wonder it didn't get any traction! The isolation is lifted and we can be outdoors again and enjoy the wonderful world that we live in Let us learn the lesson That universe is desperately trying to teach us that the time that we're spending in isolation Not have been in vain. In situations like the one were in at the moment, We look for silver linings and there is one in terms of climate and reduced levels of pollution Okay now Curry Dvorak consulting group is in session who is responsible for this complete

2:21:38 ball of poop called a promotion. Earth Hour, the opportunity of a lifetime for a marketeer or communications expert here's your opportunity to connect the stay-at-home movement With the reduction of co2 with the saving of the earth no squandered because you have this failed notion of Flipping off the lights of important buildings around the world which no one has given a crap about for the past 10 years Here was your opportunity and you put that woman on? Squandered, No message. Fail

Nicolas Maduro Indictment, Narco-Terrorism and DOJ Press Conference

Attorney General William Barr announced the unsealing of indictments against Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro and other high-ranking officials for narco-terrorism and drug trafficking. The DOJ is offering a $15 million reward for information leading to Maduro's arrest. The hosts track the number of "sealed indictments" being opened and question the logic of an oil-rich regime dicking around with drug smuggling.

nicolas maduro· william barr· venezuela· narco-terrorism· money laundering· sealed indictments

2:22:22 Fail! That was a total fail. Failed, so stupid... Like I said we didn't even know it this happened it was a couple days ago. I can't believe this. I can't believe that they couldn't couldn't What did they it was well we had a meeting and we decided this was our strategy so we're not gonna vary from the snanegi Don't you hear someone saying that oh, yeah? We know when that's a good voice do It's a woman by the way We have our strategy and we're gonna keep in that shenanigans look everyone has their tactic and strategy. I mean we know exactly how to execute The plan! We're gonna execute the plan. No flexibility, not like podcasters. They got flexibility baby. Something else happened? Something else happened? Oh yes sealed indictments Yes, yes, yes knocked out so we had already one sealed indictment opened up remember that was the Harvard professor? Now we have not one, not two but three sealed indictments opened up three

2:23:28 So that means we only have 996... No, no it's 10 thousand seal indictments isn't it? Well its thousands I'm just going over a thousand. Okay we're just taking it at 1000. Right so were now down to 996 sealed indictments still left because Attorney General Barr opened up three of them. This is the first time we've tried a virtual press conference at the Department of Justice Yes, and next time attorney general bar call the curry devore I consulting group please because you put that picture in picture over the heads of the guy standing behind You it was it was horrible And I hope it goes okay But I appreciate all of you participating this morning

2:24:12 Today I'm here to talk about the former Maduro regime and its direct part- Okay, just what happened? Did we go to bed and then Maduro is no longer running the show. It's now Guaido And someone didn't tell us? We know Guaido was at the State of the Union... I have no idea what he's talking about Well, Guaidó is now former No! I mean uh, Maduro. He said Maduro Maduro is former But that's not exactly determined. No, Maduro is running this place! No you heard him as former... listen to it today. How can he be former? It's former listen I'm here to talk about the former Maduro regime This is the CIA up. Well there's duh no here's what it is its parsing You didn't parse it right

2:25:05 He's not talking about the current Maduro regime. He is talking about the former Maduro regime, which is the one that existed before Maduro got reelected. Today I'm here to talk about Oh yeah? Well listen to the whole thing Former Maduro regime and its direct participation in narco-terrorism corruption money laundering and drug trafficking As you will hear The Department of Justice is announcing the unsealing of a superseding indictment filed... Oh, I think an unsealing of a superseding indictment counts double.

2:25:44 That should, so we're now 995 sealed indictments. I'll give you those then. Okay thank you. Department of Justice is announcing the unsealing of a superseding indictment filed in the Southern District of New York against four defendants including Nicolas Madero as well as the current head of Venezuela's Constituent Assembly, the former director of military intelligence and a former high-ranking general for their involvement in narco-terrorism. In addition, a recent superseding indictment charges two high ranking regime leaders with corruption. Further the Southern District of Florida unsealed charges this morning against the Chief Justice of the Venezuelan Supreme Court involving money laundering Additionally this morning

2:26:38 the criminal division unsealed an indictment charging the Minister of Defense for his involvement in drug trafficking. These charges are in addition to charges the department has previously filed in the Eastern District of New York, the Southern District of Texas and the District of Arizona against former members of the Maduro regime. Right? Isn't this how we take over the place isn't this how it starts when you indict everybody try to get a 15 million reward question I'm sorry there's a lot question of logic here so you're in the Maduro regime former Maduro regime

CHAPTER 41 / 49 Discussion

CIA Operations, Drug Trafficking and Venezuelan Oil

The hosts speculate that the indictments against the Maduro regime are a CIA-led operation. They question why a country with the world's largest oil reserves would resort to drug trafficking, suggesting that the CIA prefers drug-related cases because they involve "stacks of cash and guns" rather than the "messy" business of ships and pipes associated with oil operations.

cia· venezuela· oil supply· drug smuggling· heroin· evidence room

2:27:23 let's say whatever it's Maduro regime, now or whenever. This is a country sitting on the world's largest or at least the largest supply of oil in the Western Hemisphere more than Saudi Arabia probably more than Russia it's a huge pile of oil that can bring in tens of billions if not trillions of dollars so you're gonna traffic and drugs It's much easier to traffic in drugs. Instead of just skimming the money off of this huge cash flow that is outrageous, it's over-the-top you're gonna die hell with that let's sell drugs. That's what the money is George! Yeah indeed let me ask your question if you go to an oil convention

2:28:16 Are there hot babes and hookers there? No, that's where the drugs are brother. So it's bonus-bonus time! It's easier to transport...it's less.. it's not so messy... Not as easy as the Cheshire Cat oil! It's not as messy you don't need ships and pipes You just need mules put in some snakes sew it up in their bellies I'm just saying...you got literally hookers and blow. I wish there was a press conference or somebody could ask Barr this simple question Why, when you're sitting on a trillion dollars worth of oil are you going to dick around selling drugs on the side? Give me a break. Well try this on for size... The people of Venezuela need work

2:29:02 There's lots of work in the drug business. You get to do submarine trips, I don't understand your thinking in this. How could... oil, boring! We're all going electric he was probably sold on the Tesla. Look what i bought for my drug money that's exactly the thinking and I don't know see why you don't understand this

2:29:38 But we're taking over. This sounds like a... We're on the way in, we already introduced... Well this is the CIA portion of the government doing something when no one's looking. That's all that CIA does is think in terms of drugs Yeah, when is the last time a CIA did an oil operation? Never. It's always about smuggling drugs or building... taking heroin and making heroin. Okay it's really hard to have a gushing pipe in the evidence room and say see we got him! No you want this stacks and stacks of cash and guns and dope that's what you want yeah well maybe if they come to their senses and realize this is stupid well they're doing it

CHAPTER 42 / 49 Discussion

$10 Oil Projections, Saudi-Russia Tiff and California Gas Prices

Economists predict that oil prices could drop to $10 a barrel as the global economy enters a recession. The price war began when Russia refused to cut production in response to falling Chinese demand, prompting Saudi Arabia to ramp up its own output to bankrupt competitors. Despite the global glut, gas prices in California remain high due to state legislature actions and taxes.

oil prices· shale oil· opec· jakarta· california· gas tax

2:30:22 Well, let's see what it goes on. I got a story here but talking about oil. Yeah? I do have an Al Jazeera story that does explain a little bit about what happened with this tiff between Saudi Arabia and Russia This is the oil prices. Yeah, I got it Oil prices could be headed to $10 a barrel as the global economy heads towards recession Wow! Gold standard coming soon? Nobody said 10 bucks in this country That 10 bucks is, I mean that would bankrupt the shale oil. People are already having trouble. Would it be 68 or something we have to... No i think its 50, I think its closer to 50. Okay well anyway $10 oil. Woo!

2:31:07 Oil prices could be headed to $10 a barrel as the global economy heads towards recession. And the oil price war between Saudi Arabia and Russia is adding to the crisis. Problems are piling up for countries that are both importers and exporter of oil, such as Indonesia Al Jazeera's Jessica Washington has the story from Jakarta. Around the world, the coronavirus outbreak isn't just a health emergency it is also an economic one. Disruptions to supply chains were given but such a dramatic price war in oil market was unexpected A falling out between Saudi Arabia and Russia sparked the sharpest one day crash in oil prices since the Gulf War

2:31:49 Indonesia is one of the countries that's both an exporter and importer, and economists think it could be a challenging time for the country and its oil industry. The exporters will really going to feel the pinch. I think the first is with this coronavirus impacting the global economy, the Chinese economy will feel a slowdown. The global economy will feel it slow down like almost everything in recent weeks. The slump in oil prices comes back to the corona virus outbreak China, the world's biggest importer of oil was turning back tankers as its economy began to contract. Saudi Arabia called for a massive cut in production, but Russia disagreed and in response Riyadh ramped up production

2:32:35 This whole thing's still it's either we're either in it with Russia or in it with Saudi Arabia and I don't know. I know you said I just wanted to reveal the story as the official story not their Interpretation right? And the official story is that once the corona hit China and China being the big user of oil The Saudi had a bunch of tankers going in there said no, no. No we got too much now You gotta go back you can't yours put it but would be an anchor or something don't do we? Can't take your oil and so the Saudi freaks out they call their Russians are their partners with in terms of running OPEC Whatever's left of it and they say hey

2:33:15 Look what just happened. It's going to be a disaster, we got to cut production and keep the prices high." And Russia said, I don't think so. They said, nyet. And so after saying nyet the Saudis figured they're gonna be double crossed that Russians are gonna try to steal the Saudi contracts with China and he says okay you want to play that game? We can play that game and they cranked up production because it's pretty well known that the Saudi, the Saudis can make money off their oil or rent at least this is something I brought up on a show million times I don't have clip anymore where the guy says you do it about 25 bucks a barrel and the Russians can't they need like 40

2:33:54 And so they figured, screw the Russians. So they ramped it up and now the Russians are going to have a problem and everybody else's too especially I mean except in California where they apparently pay no attention to this and gas prices have actually gone up at the pump because of California's legislature Thank you very much Wait your gas prices have gone UP? Yeah! They're four bucks now So you can steal $2,500 worth of goods. Your gas prices went up half your place is on fire or earthquaking It sounds like a beautiful place to be. Well, actually there's no fires, there are no earthquakes... That is not this time of year. There is just a lot of crime and homelessness You guys need some extra! Why don't you take some fire? Get some fire back on! That was better pictures I'm sure that some people who moved into the Hyatt will probably set their hotel on fire because they're going to be cooking with small little wood fire in the room there and it's gonna cause a problem

Joe Biden, Virtual Town Halls and Stroke Rumors

Joe Biden has been campaigning from a home studio, appearing on virtual town halls and late-night shows. The hosts discuss rumors of Biden's declining health and mock his performance, including a clip where he mistakenly refers to the "Lujan virus." They note the technical difficulties and "lag" that make his virtual appearances awkward and ineffective.

2:34:56 Should we take a brief moment to talk about the political sitch? The Paul sitch, because Joe is operating from his bunker. poorly, I will say. Okay, I do want to play one quickie though with Joe because I want you to tell me this... Like I said listening to Al Jazeera and there is a commercial for the politics going on in the United States for some special show they're doing and there's a voice of Joe Biden in here this odd Joe Biden voice and they show him talking. And tell me that somebody hasn't screwed up with his voice, screw this voice. How much is the coronavirus on the stock market chaos affecting the race to the White House? Will it be Joe Biden or Bernie Sanders who secures the Democratic nomination? I believe we can beat Donald Trump

2:35:50 Follow all the developments in the US election campaign on Al Jazeera. Actually sounded like Hillary Clinton in Joe Biden's voice, oddly. Yeah doing a southern accent yeah I believe we can beat Donald Trump! I've never heard Biden do that hmm maybe when he's now in Al Jazeeraland thinks he's in the south but I mean I just have three short bits three short sound bites it's all I got because He was everywhere. He did the CNN virtual Democratic presidential town hall Are you familiar with the rumor? Are you gonna break my heart Well, I don't know Joe Biden supposedly had a stroke when just like this just like during this period Since the last show oh shit. I didn't hear this rumor Just some rumor. I don't know it says floating around at the net Joe's make he can't

2:36:53 It's cruel and abusive. And this will be the last time I laugh about it, no maybe not! It's just so mean... So he is on the CNN virtual democratic presidential town hall which is basically Joe in his living room and Pooper in the studio. Then he's on The Tonight Show with Kimmel He's doing shtick. It should never be done Even if it was good connections, continuously. It's more Skypey or maybe I think probably...

2:37:29 If it's MSNBC that use WebEx or you know, so they're trying different things but there's always a delay this lag It's you can't be that funny. It's not as good as in person Especially not when your Joe Just a couple of quick sound bites. So wait to be able to sleep with my wife Okay, and this was my favorite I'm the only one on my family has zero talent zero That is got to be one of my favorite and then this and um Our Secretary of State insisted, and this broke the meeting up basically in terms of our influence that this be called the Lujan virus. Okay...the Lujan virus! That's sad man! God it's sad well those are mediocre

2:38:19 Joe's not at his top form at all. I mean, you can say that he's given him a bad time but this is nothing there that's that bad! That's true it's... He's not really faltering but it just whenever he says well here's what I do as president and so on..I'd have daily briefings and bring the Surgeon General out daily and he should be talking to the American people. Joe yes this happening every single day Jerome Adams is everywhere talking whatever you want him to do By the way, just kind of on the screwball subject. So I'm picking up...I'm listening to one of your stations there in Austin. Which one? KXAN, I think is the name of it. It's like a UHF news station.

CHAPTER 44 / 49 Discussion

KXAN Investigation, Employee Paychecks and Relief Checks

A report from Austin station KXAN alleges that an unnamed local company is asking employees to sign away their government relief checks in exchange for continued employment. The hosts express skepticism about the story, noting that the company was not identified and the report used a "voice changer" for the whistleblower, suggesting it may be a hoax or legally unenforceable.

kxan· jody barr· austin· relief checks· employee compensation· hoax

2:39:07 What who is this evil and mysterious Austin company? This lousy report from your local reporters I tried to get the report myself. In fact, I clipped the report and threw it out It's so shit Well, I have the report here. Yeah let's play it And what's missing obviously is... The whole thing is a hoax How about yeah thank you that's what I thought the minute I hear the voice changer come in and like okay if your not even gonna name the company and your gonna do a vocoder This is not a story It's not a story which uh what's titled on your clip list Evil & Mysterious Austin Company

2:39:46 Those who earn between $75,000 and $99,000 will get less money based on a sliding scale. KXAN investigator Jody Barr got a tip about a company planning to reduce paychecks by those same amounts. Jody is that even legal? Well Robert it might not be that company sent this agreement out just a few days ago asking its workers to sign it A signature on this form would allow this company to essentially walk away with those relief checks This is the employee emergency compensation program. This man's company is waiting on him to essentially sign away his next paycheck. They're reducing employee compensation by 100% of the government distribution for the individual, as well as 50% of the government distribution for any dependent that individual claims To protect his job and his company this man asked that we not identify him Yeah

2:40:41 I saw the story, it is KXAN who reported it. Did not see any other reports on it. It's total crap and if someone's doing that they're not gonna get away with it That's not how the system works for some reason they set that up You would name the company to shame them That's exactly what you do No this is bullcrap What is NOT bullcrap however This is our second segment. I'm going to show my support by donating to No Agenda, imagine all the people who could do that! Oh yeah that'd be fab! And we have a few people thank for show 1229 starting with...

CHAPTER 47 / 49 Discussion

Bob Dylan, JFK Assassination Song and Declassification

Bob Dylan released a 16-minute song about the JFK assassination titled "Murder Most Foul." The hosts discuss the timing of the release and the song's lyrics, which reference "Wolfman" (a rumored Secret Service code name for George H.W. Bush). They speculate whether this is a precursor to President Trump declassifying the remaining JFK files or documents related to 9/11 and "flying saucers."

bob dylan· jfk assassination· donald trump· declassification· wolfman jack· daddy bush

2:53:49 Well, there was one thing I wanted to discuss with you. It's quite interesting We had just weird things happening during this time and some of it is maybe like the Maduro thing It's a weird time to do that Some things are just kind of odd but what happened the other day is this came out Did you see or hear this song? The voice will clue you in from the dark Dan Dallas November 63 Bob Dylan yeah doing the Kennedy song a 16-minute song and it's all about The Kennedy assassination Yeah, and what is interesting? Is that in this one of the lyrics a lot of weird reference like the whole song is weird references He says the wolf man killed JFK

2:54:52 Well, you know who the Wolfman is. Wolfman Jack? No secret service name for timber wolf was Bush Sr., Daddy Bush. That's not a... that is a theory that has been out there for awhile which supposedly actually was there Why does Bob Dylan pop this out now Well, a song that he said, I just had it laying around. Nice! Almost almost... I think it means to be more unintelligible. Hey, hey, I had the song and let the wolfman kill the jay.

2:55:39 So, uh... Maybe he's just really bored. Really bored? Oh no! He was told to do it I have you know well that so that is the theory you recall that one of the promises President Trump made That he was going to I think the court was You'll find two things you'll finally know who shot JFK and killed him And you'll know who really pulled down the twin towers So this would be a good one. He has the, what was it? The John F Kennedy assassination paper collection act or something like that at some weird thing and he the president declassified most of it in 2017 but then held back to the severe disappointment of tinfoil hat wearing podcasters everywhere

2:56:31 He held back on some, you know there were pieces that didn't...that weren't published. They quit releasing it or they're gonna let it go? Not yet but then when you hear Bob Doone... Okay guys don't let me put this out I'm gonna call my buddy Bob who used to work for me at the casino Hey Donald! So are That's possible. Is Trump also gonna release the flying saucer documents? Well, he has declassified some anti-gravitational Technology that will be unveiled in that new triangle plane we're seeing sneak pictures of yes There's something has been around for a while yeah, but okay well I think there's a look

CHAPTER 48 / 49 Discussion

Michael Levitt, Stanford Research and Media Panic

Nobel Prize winner Michael Levitt and other Stanford researchers argue that the media is causing unnecessary panic with "utterly unreliable data." Based on projections from the Diamond Princess cruise ship, they suggest the COVID-19 fatality rate could be as low as 0.05%, lower than the seasonal flu. The hosts warn listeners not to be fooled by "spikes" in cases caused simply by increased testing.

michael levitt· stanford university· nobel prize· diamond princess· mortality rate· amygdala

2:57:13 If you're gonna lock everybody down, you better give us something. So I think at least who killed JFK would be in order to give us that information We maybe don't do 9-11 just yet but give us JFK And I think the Pope is very smart right on point with his timing He did a special smoke and the prayer Which means, you know in seven days we should start to be released from this hell. Which I'm still on board with! I'm still thinking April 6 is a good date to get started We will be social distancing, we will have apps, we will be told to work from home half the time There'll be A teams and B teams there'll be A teams and B teams for eating restaurants will be spaced

2:58:07 You will have all kinds of warning systems telling you how dangerous it is. Beep, beep, beep! Back off! It's gonna be stuff like that but somehow we'll get out of it and certainly the No Agenda Media tribe who always sticks together Do you have anything else to take us home? I don't think...I mean what do I have? Oh oh maybe let's see I have one clue this is interesting This is actually, I kind of like this and i didn't like it at the same time. CGTN which is China State Television or China... What do they even rename? It used to be CCCTV or CCTV then they named a stupid CGTN or whatever. Is it like China Garden Television Network? Global. Oh no! China Global Television Network okay well

2:59:04 Well, they have information. Of course we've heard about this from a lot of different people that these lies These drugs are apparently working and officials from the Ministry of Science in technology have said clinical trials show a conventional Anti-malarial drug is effective in treating coronavirus patients experts have confirmed The drug is safe to use as it has been on the market for many years but there also said that certain traditional Chinese medicines are also effective in alleviating symptoms. In addition, the National Health Commission said early diagnosis and treatment are an effective approach which is reflected on the declining number of cases."

2:59:49 That's good news. Plaquenil is apparently the commercial version, which is very odd that was taken off the market put back on but hydroxy or hydrochloroquine seems to work with the right combination we have this and this is all just a good news to make you feel good as we leave the show and leave you until Thursday Stanford University Despite dire warnings making headlines all over the country experts suggest there are actually very good reasons to believe the coronavirus could soon

3:00:39 say the virus could take months or years to run its course, Stanford biophysicist and Nobel Prize winner Michael Levitt says the data just doesn't support that conclusion. Levitt explains controlling panic is the first priority and says the media is to blame for frightening people unnecessarily pointing out the normal flu has infected 36 million Americans just since September He adds that shutting down large sections of the economy can cause its own health problems, increasing poverty and with it depression. Other researchers at Stanford agree saying there's no reason to panic based on what they call utterly unreliable data about the virus explaining the data we do have suggests people are severely overreacting

3:01:19 Due to limited testing, they warn the fatality rates reported by the WHO are meaningless and just lead to selection bias because only patients with severe symptoms are being reported. Based on mortality projections from the cruise ship Diamond Princess alone, the death rate could be as low as .05 percent even lower than the seasonal flu which makes these drastic measures not only unnecessary but potentially catastrophic and according to those at Stanford Totally irrational. Yeah, thank you very much. It was great so there's the worst voice I kind of like it because that means I can get a gig It's finally voiceover 1950s arise in 1950s AM radio jock I do want to remind everybody as we leave well. I just wanted one more reminder

3:02:09 Do not fall for spike in cases Increases I see it all the time is my troll room more testing means more cases Positive cases doesn't mean they're gonna die. Doesn't mean they're being hospitalized doesn't mean that need they'll need ventilators doesn't mean there's a surge beware of your amygdala This is more testing more cases Just be wary of that every single time. This is what they indoctrinate you with all the time Do you have anything else for us? I would say Amy would disagree with you entirely. No kidding, no kidding There's more cases with less testing somehow Anything from your side before we leave? You know i've got some stuff i can carry over i'd be glad to and the rest of it is just redundant or not funny or nothing interesting i think you wrapped it up perfectly all right well i i would like to leave everybody with

Dr. Birx Scarf Knots, Outro and End of Show Mix

The show concludes with a clip from NPR's "Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!" mocking Dr. Deborah Birx's scarves. Adam Curry and John Dvorak sign off, promising to return on Thursday. The episode ends with a "Pandemic Sandbox" mix by Sir Joho and Fletcher, featuring soundbites of President Trump discussing hydroxychloroquine and Joe Biden's verbal gaffes.

deborah birx· paula poundstone· npr· sir joho· fletcher· hydroxychloroquine

3:03:05 A mainstream media clip we started with dr. Burks We started with with her analysis that of course, you know, she's a spook She's all this horrible stuff But I think that she's been honest from the get-go. She's been around for a long time She's military which I do like I do like military people trust them for the disciplinary discipline reasons So we're going to leave you with the mainstream media's interpretation of Dr. Birx This is from the fabulous NPR radio show wait, wait don't tell me I Don't know if you've been watching this but the president is doing almost daily press conferences Which are mostly devoted to him praising himself He's clearly not socially distancing his face from his own That woman that woman with the scarf stands behind him

3:03:58 And I can tell she's a realtor because she often has the scarf in like, a different knot each day which is one of the things that they teach realtors. A lot of realtors are trained... They take at least one class in the scarf knot book That's Paula Poundstone If you've never heard of her this is the reason why She's a comedian so there ya go What the mainstream brings, I hope we brought you different value.
