Mask = Love

00:00 Oh, you know, we're so sorry here in Texas. Adam Curry. John C. DeVora. This is no agenda. Debunking the surge and broadcasting live from Opportunity Zone 33 here in the frontier of Austin, Texas, capital of the drone star state. In the morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry. And from northern Silicon Valley where we say, Surge Shmerge. I'm John C. Dvorak. Just when I thought you were indeed the Celine Dion of podcasting, you blew out the microphone settings there on that one. How do you do it? How do you do it? In the morning to you. I'm glad you're here. In the morning to you and in the morning all ships at sea. I'm glad you're here.

00:53 And boots on the ground. I was worried. I was a little worried. Why? All because of the surge? Well, yes, exactly. We have the surge and then your clips didn't show up this morning. And I put two and two together and I just see you slumped over your keyboard at night, you know. It's like flies buzzing around my head. Buzzards. I'm like, oh my God, they got him. The Rona finally. It hasn't happened in years that I haven't received your clips. Well, I sent him. Yeah, I know. Can you turn down your speakers just a tad? This new setup is so sensitive that... How's that? Yeah, I'm sure it's much better. What'd you say? I don't know. Wow, and I walked into it too. You did. Hey, before we start...

01:43 I do this every, it seems, two to four years. Wait, stop! What? You're talking about one thing and then you stop? What happened? How come we didn't get the clips that you're using? I sent them to your secret Gmail account and Gmail is always the most reliable mail system in the world. I've never said that. And they... Oh. I've never said they're the most reliable system in the world. Are you making an accusation? It's... No, it never arrived. Every once in a while something like that happens with Gmail. You look, it never arrives, it never gets there. You look into spam, it's not there, it's nowhere. Right. And this happens on the newsletter a lot. Yeah. Well, maybe it's your name, I don't know. Google definitely is deploying all kinds of filters and I can't blame them. The most recent one was kind of interesting. One of our producers says, I can't believe it.

02:41 I put a copy of the John Bolton book PDF on my shared Google Drive and they deleted it. It's like you really don't understand. Yes, I archived this myself. It's on your shared Google Drive. He still doesn't get it. He doesn't get it. He doesn't get it. He doesn't get it. I'm like, please understand. It's copyrighted. You can't be doing that. It's bad enough I even told the audience that I sent you that PDF that was sent to me, but you had already received it because it was buzzing around. It's like one of those things. But don't be surprised if someone, if a Silicon Valley company is scanning for stuff. Yeah, they don't want to get busted. And Twitter's doing the same with DMs. If there's certain words that you use, it'll say, we're having trouble processing this DM request. Or there seem to be, yeah, yeah, of course it's happening. I know, I've seen that message. Of course, of course it's happening.

03:32 And we'll get into some of that later because there are some exciting developments. But the first development I need to speak about is performing rights. Every couple of years. I don't know why you you hold those I'll stop the show for a second and mentioned everybody You have explained this at least five times over the ten years you do it at least once every two years And it's pathetic that people don't know this and it's even more pathetic that the bands who moan and groan about the system that they signed up to be in make it seem as though that they have more control than they do so they can just do virtue signaling because they don't like Trump.

04:14 You may continue. There is however something different this year. They're actually trying to pull a fast one and I'm on to them and the Trump campaign could possibly be in trouble depending on what they've done. Well you better explain the whole thing from scratch. That's exactly what I intend. In this case we're only talking about performing rights. Performing rights is an important part of the music business, the music industry And it is to ensure that when a copyrighted work, whether it's a song that someone is performing live, just singing out loud, whether it's a performance, it's all based on the term performance, whether you're playing a record or playing the song through speakers to an audience, it's all venue-based. If you have a radio station and you are playing songs on the radio, that is a performance right.

05:03 And now there's many other ways that money is made in the music business, but we're just keeping it to this for this moment. The payments for that performance right is split 50-50 between two parties that own the copyrighted work. 50% goes to the composer. So if we say the Beatles, that could be Lenny McCartney because it's part song, it's part lyrics. So both of them will get credit and the way, depending on how they set it up back in the day, they'd each get 25%, so half of the 50. But 50% goes to the writer and the composer. The other 50% goes to the publisher.

05:43 And the publisher, this is what all musicians always get screwed on. Taking my Paul McCartney example. He didn't own the publishing rights to his catalog. In fact, Michael Jackson owned them. And it's incredibly valuable because this enables you to license the song for any type of use. Commercials, you name it. By law, You have a, anyone has the right to perform any copyrighted work. That is the law, certainly in the United States. And because it would be a free speech issue if you just want to get up and sing a song. Now if you do that in front of a large enough audience which is specified in the law as over 2,000 square feet, there's a couple of other parameters.

06:29 and how many people would fit into that space, you have to pay a royalty to the composer and writer 50% and the publisher 50%. By law, there are only a couple of organizations that are allowed to be intermediaries between the venues, so that's concert halls, radio stations, etc., bars, you name it, and the publishers and the rights holders, the publishers and the writers and composers. In the United States we have ASCAP, BMI and CSAC. And as a owner of a song, you register with one of those organizations. And how that works and why there's three of them, and you can't just start a new performing rights organization. They're all non-profits and they collect money from radio stations, could be about 2% of their revenue. They'll collect either a per case or a revenue basis of large arenas and they get what is called a blanket license. You can play any song from their catalog.

07:30 So in the case of Tom Petty, that would be ASCAP. In the case of the Rolling Stones, that would be BMI. They both function more or less the same. It's political. There's reasons why people are with one or the other. The venue needs to have deals with both of them. And again, that's how you get a blanket license. You can play anything you want. It's important because the blanket license means that you literally can play anything you want. There's no take-backsies. It's like I can play it and we already know what I'm paying for. It's either part of my revenue or ticket sales, etc. And you can play whatever you want. They can't go back and say, no, no, you can't have that. The only way that can happen is if

08:15 is when the rights holders, the composer and the songwriter and the publisher say, stop we're pulling it from the catalog. Now that will never happen in a million years. The pub the composer as let's say Tom Petty or his estate can say shit We want it taken away. They're not going to because the publisher will never do that publishers not stupid He said he all he sees is controversy and this is great. The song's getting airplay people are talking about it more money's being made It is their statutory duty to his head. You have to stop and You have to explain why you're using Tom Petty as the example. Because Tom Petty's family also just recently threatened Trump with a lawsuit over using I won't back down.

09:01 There's two cases now. And that's why I mentioned specifically Tom Petty. The Tom Petty estate has licensed through ASCAP for performance and the Rolling Stones through BMI. So it's two different organizations but they're both trying to do the same thing or they both would like to do the same thing which is make as much money as possible or the little hassle as possible but they're really in the middle. They have no say. Either you give the rights to the song or you don't give the rights to the song. There's no in between. Okay. So. a venue. Remember this is always for the... Sure. Let me jump into where you're on your roll. There's logical reasons for this and the one main one is you don't hit that way you don't have to clear every damn thing that happens. Oh it's impossible. It would never work. It would not be possible. Nobody make any money.

09:47 And there's reporting requirements. You have to report which songs were played and that information is then, and this is always controversial within the music business, ASCAP, BMI or SESAC, they have some magical formula and so they take in 2% of the biggest radio stations of their revenue in the United States. And they say, well, and this goes to this person, that person, and a lot of people feel jib like art. It's like an algo. No one really knows how it works. But successful people seem to get more successful through their system. This has always throughout history been based on the venue. The venue is the conduit. It is the arena. It is the bar, the club. It is the radio station. It has not been the person.

10:35 That's why as a band you can go perform at a club and ask how BMI is not standing there saying, hey you sang these songs man, you gotta pay us money. No, the club takes care of that. That's how it's always been. It's always been venue based. To my knowledge, there's never been a single person or entity who has received a performance right license. So it would be interesting, but I would love to be able to go to ASCAP BMI and say, hi, could you please license me so I can play whatever I want, wherever I want it, and I'll pay you directly? That would be very interesting. But it doesn't exist because it's never been that way. Until now.

11:24 There's two changes which have slipped in, or they're trying to slip in, for the first time and coordinated. ASCAP and BMI are both creating campaign and political entity licenses. So they are trying to change the burden of the performance from the venue, which would be what's the big arena that Trump was in in Tulsa? I can't remember. So whenever there's a concert there, you know, a band shows up, they play, there's 20,000 people or whatever fits in the arena, 800,000, a million who are going to come. They fit in that arena, the venue pays, the band doesn't. But now ASCAP and BMI both have said, no, we think that this is different.

12:15 And I'll tell you why in a moment. And so the venue might have to pay, but really you, the political entity, has to pay. Even though you're performing it just like a band who could be political. You too is a political band. They play political songs. Lots of political... Dixie Chicks. I'm sorry, the Chicks. They don't have to pay for it. But now ASCAP and BMI have come out with these licenses. And I'm going to read you the pertinent language from the ASCAP license. This license is issued to an individual's candidate's specific campaign and extends only until the candidate is sworn into office, not for the candidate's full term in office. I have no idea where they're putting that in there. Having such licenses in place would guarantee that, no matter where you have a campaign stop, the performances of music at the events would be in compliance with copyright law.

13:11 So, I think what they're trying to say, and this will go to court, is that if you have a campaign stop like a stump speech, that would be all of a sudden you are the venue. You're the performer and the venue, which has never been done before. I don't think it's even legal, but that's what they're trying to say. Even if, they say here under, can political campaigns rely on venue licenses? Because licenses for venues such as convention centers and hotels generally exclude rights to perform music at events organized by a third party, political campaigns need their own ASCAP license to use the works in its repertory. This is very tricky language, but they're trying to hoodwink you.

14:02 Convention centers and hotels generally will not license music because they don't want to pay for it. So they say, hey, are you going to play music at your event? No? Okay, then we'll just call ASCAP and say there's no license for this period. That's not because they pay licenses differently when they're in a hotel. They don't. They just say, we don't want any music so done, we won't pay for a license. That's very typical because it can get very expensive if you have hundreds of thousands of people attending an event and if it's hard to count, etc. Now it's set. Now, this is great.

14:40 Because licenses for venues such as conventions, centers and hotels generally exclude rights to perform music at events organized by a third party, political campaigns need their own ASCAP licenses to use the works in its repertory. This makes sense, it says, because the third party organizer is the main beneficiary of the performances, not the venue. and is in the best position to control the performances. For this reason, event organizers, in this case political campaigns, have traditionally assumed responsibility for obtaining the permission from rights holders. I know it's kind of smokey legalese, but that's the point. It's not true. It is not true. Who is the beneficiary of the Trump rally in Tulsa? I ask you, John.

15:34 Well, I kind of fell for their language. I think Trump should have been. So the Trump campaign does not pay the venue any money? Bullshit! They may pay top dollar for the venue. It's no different than Aerosmith or anyone else. You're right. The venue's not... Okay, you got me. You got me. That's what they're trying to do. The venue... I'm gonna explain. The venue is not giving the space away for free. No, of course not. And they never have and they never will. Furthermore... So it's the same as a rock concert. Why is it any different? It's not different at all. No, it's a scam. Moreover, in 17 U.S. Code 110, Section 4,

16:18 limitation on exclusive rights, exemption of certain performances and displays. So were it true that the venue did not get any money, did not benefit at all, and only the Trump campaign benefited because he's trying to become president? I guess that's a benefit. I'm not sure. Before you know it, every Republican will be taxed because they got a benefit for, you know, of some something. But specifically, If you have a performance in a venue of non-dramatic literary or musical work, otherwise than in transmission to the public, without any purpose of direct or indirect commercial advantage, and without payment of any fee or other compensation for the performance to any of its performers, promoters, or organizers, then no fee would have to be paid.

17:10 So their argument doesn't stand up. They're saying, well the venue doesn't benefit, okay, but then someone has to benefit. If no one benefits monetarily, commercially, commercially, then no performance fee has to be paid. So they're doubly full of shit. Here's the rub, and this could have happened. BMI, who have a very similar license, and these are all new, I've never seen these before, these are coming out of nowhere. The Rolling Stones, our legal team, is working with BMI. BMI has notified the Trump campaign on behalf of the Stones that the unauthorized use of their songs will constitute a breach of its licensing agreement. If Donald Trump disregards the exclusion and persists, he would face a lawsuit for breaking the embargo and playing music that had not been licensed. What BMI says in this article is that the Trump campaign has a political entity license from BMI.

18:07 If that's true, and it's very possible that some bonehead, some douche-knuckle dickhead went, oh, I should both, I got us a license just in case. Then I think they're in trouble. Because if you sign, it will supersede the blanket license if you sign an exclusive license agreement with BMI which states that you have a blanket license however However, any of their members of the performing rights organization, i.e. publishers, songwriters, composers, can refuse their works to be performed. And that would have to be with a written, you know, a seven-day advance written whatever, but then they could pull that. So if the Trump campaign signed a deal with BMI, as they state in this interview, then they're screwed with BMI. If they didn't, I think they can keep going for as long as they want.

19:05 But right, but I think these two new licenses are do not hold up to the code. This is all written in the law. It's all copyright law. They're just creating new shit out of thin air and everybody's on board with it. But Orange Man bad. Orange Man bad. Oh, there you go. So in this case, something may actually happen, but I'd have to see that the campaign actually had. I don't think they have one with ASCAP. Because ASCAP didn't say that, but ASCAP kind of lifted their skirt there by saying, well, you know, the venue doesn't, it's really the campaign that benefits, so they should be paying. Which would be the same as Taylor Swift. Well, Taylor Swift is really quite rich and she's really benefiting from this contest. She should pay instead of the arena. Let's, okay, well, I think it... You got it, right? I'm done. Yeah. Everyone's got it.

20:02 Unfortunately, it brings a couple of questions. I'm going to have to belabor this. No, no, no. Go ahead. Questions are good. This is complicated stuff. People don't seem to understand that a band, for example, you're a singer or a band and you play somebody else's written material and then when it goes on the radio, The publisher and the writer get money, but the band gets nothing. In the United States, the band gets nothing. People don't seem to understand that. So when you listen to Spotify, your favorite band... Well, here's... Okay, here's... Well, first of all, let me give you one other piece of information.

20:39 The political entity license would cost about 60 cents per person. I'm just letting you know what's on the table here. So, you know, is that a big deal? Was it normally? There's no normal. That's the thing. This is one of the big problems people have. 60 cents per person is too high. But that's what they calculate this to be for the political entity. It's very high. 66 per person, yes. For everyone out there listening, it costs them 60 cents to listen? If you're at the rally. To a snippet of a Stone song? Well, it would cost the campaign 60 cents. Yeah, well, for the whole event. Not per song, but the whole event. For the whole event. And just for being there, anything that was played. For the whole event? Yeah. 60 cents per person? Yeah. What constitutes a whole event?

21:31 Just from beginning to end. What about the beginning of the campaign to the end of the campaign in November? No, it's that this is this you're right. This is a good catch. All everyone ever says is Trump all Trump your campaign. So he's campaigning. That's a very good point. But I think they still do that venue based how many people were in each venue or each stop at each time when the meter starts running. Who the hell about the people who go to venue after venue? There's a bunch of Trump Trump groupies. Yeah, they got to pay again. All right.

22:06 Now this is where it got complicated because artists were getting screwed in this deal Yeah, and this is historical. That's why you you know you got the the famous old blues singers Hey, I'll give you a Cadillac shut up And I got all your rights and they got screwed out of out of everything, but they got a Cadillac So that is just the way the music business was set up when they set up streaming This is where everyone tried to weasel in and change it. And this is where a carve-out was made for artists. So artists who perform on the song, and this is why it's a carve-out, because it's not just for the singer. No, we're going to go all the way down to the guy who cleaned the keyboard. So that gets split up at whatever piece it is, and it's different for each different venue. And that whole thing is a complete quagmire. I don't think anyone's really happy with how that's done. And the numbers are so low.

23:00 that no one seems to make any money. Certainly artists don't seem to make any money, even though publishers still do okay, but those are direct deals with Spotify, etc. You don't have to go through the existing performing rights organizations. Anyway, that's a story for another time. The bottom line is never before has it been possible to license the person performing for the performance right. Apparently that is now taking place. And if Trump signed it, they're boneheads. Then I think he'll have to pay, which won't be possible because the Stones would say, and I think they own their own publishing, they say, hey, you know,

23:45 Pay us a million dollars or whatever so that would stones. Yeah, they're pretty picky about who gets to use their stuff I mean Bill Gates and it up in Microsoft years ago was Windows 95 tried to License the stones thing as part of their advertising campaign. It didn't start me up for a while I thought he I thought he did that it wasn't the fool They wanted it for a whole advertising campaign, and they couldn't get it Or maybe they did get it for some, I think they got it for some venues and for some events. Exactly! Yeah, well that's a performance right, that's why they got that. Yeah, that's how they got it. But they never got it for their, you can't, performance rights doesn't apply to advertising campaigns. Exactly, that's a whole different venue.

24:29 That is, by the way, the publisher. The publisher does have control over that, but then you have mechanical rights, sync rights, a whole bunch of shit that you run into. It's a mess. It's a whole thing is a giant... Yes, mess is a good way of putting it. It's a mess, man. Somebody wants to sing a song for God's sake. Exactly. Exactly. Well, welcome to Texas where we're dying. Masks! They'll save every one of us! Get your masks on, they'll save every one of us. Holy stop before you go to the mass team just play this little duel ad that's going around This is not a mask so you get in the mood

25:11 This is not a mask this is confidence It's for getting out and working anywhere other than home. This is not a mask. This is solidarity It's for opening the door to a friend and keeping the doors open to your favorite places This is not a mask This is a side of love oh man. Oh man off the bat just bow down John Please are you kidding me? It's love baby. It's love mask is love mask is love Can't get enough of those

26:01 All right, here's what's going on. This is all political. It's 100% bullcrap. We're not dying. We're okay here in Texas. Stop emailing me. We are going to live. And thankfully, one article is gaining some traction. I tweeted it a couple... It's from... When is this from? This is from June 25th. So this is already three days old. This is from the CEO of which hospital services. Let me see. And this is a, I think it's from Reuters, Texas Hospital CEO. COVID inpatient count misinterpreted. Level of alarm unwarranted. And a lot is in this article, but the main point of the article is

26:55 that people who before the lockdown could not have elective surgery, and this is not facelifts, it's you know stuff like there's artery surgery, these are called elective surgeries, and people are going back in and they are getting tested. And if they're there for a heart valve, and of course they need to be tested because in a hospital the most dangerous place to be. If it's positive, then they're listed as a COVID case, even though they are completely asymptomatic. Completely asymptomatic. And so we have people in the, let's see, the chief executives of Houston Methodist Memorial, Herman Health System, St. Luke's Health, Texas Children's Hospitals,

27:45 They all said, hey, the number of hospitalizations are being misinterpreted. And quite frankly, we're concerned that there's a level of alarm in the community that is unwarranted right now. Now why are hospital rooms and emergency rooms stacking up? Because people are going in now. Now they have other illnesses. And look at the lines for testing, that's drive-thru testing. It is young people who are going to get tested because they're afraid, they're out protesting, or they're working in retail and they want to be safe. Even the CDC, the CDC itself is saying this is not a big deal. But you haven't heard this report except

28:25 you're watching CNBC which as you know your podcasters do. Hey Kelly well let's start with that CDC briefing the remarks just coming just now from the call that just ended the CDC director really taking a different tone than we've perhaps heard from Dr. Fauci in the hearing earlier this week. Is there any more in a very different position now in the pandemic than we were in March and April. Now, he said he is not underplaying the significance of these new cases, but he did point out that many of the new cases are in younger people. So he said, quote, in the past, I don't think we diagnosed these infections.

29:02 He said that from the CDC's perspective, only 110 to 120 counties in the U.S. are considered hotspots or having significant transmission, pointing out that's just about 3% of the counties in the United States. Now, he also noted that the CDC has been doing ongoing surveillance of antibodies using blood samples to try to tell who's been exposed to the virus. And he said they estimate now that five to 8% of the American public has experienced infection, whether they recognized it or not, they may have been asymptomatic. He said that some states that were less hard hit could have prevalence of under 2%, whereas areas like the New York area that was harder hit would have fewer susceptibles.

29:46 So perhaps higher number of those with antibodies. He said that the CDC currently estimates 10 people have antibodies for every one case. Now he did reiterate he's not downplaying the risk and that we could see a follow-on increase in hospitalizations and deaths within three to four weeks. and part of the risk of younger people getting infected and those who don't know that they're sick is that they could pass it on to more susceptible people. But Kelly, this happening as of course we're seeing these headlines from Texas about the state pausing its reopening where it is and in four counties that are extremely hard hit, telling hospitals that they can't do elective surgeries to make sure that they have capacity

30:24 for COVID-19 patients. This is we're seeing headlines for Houston that they are exceeding their ICU capacity. So quite concerning, but the CDC director saying a very different situation now from back in March. And that's the point. It's a very different situation now, but we're doing the worst thing possible. We're choking people with muzzles and sending them back indoors. It's stupid. Well, a couple of things here. First of all, see NBC has to do this report because they are... The rest of NBC, I'm going to play NBC stuff. I got NBC reports just the opposite of this. It's the same org is it? Well, they have the same organization for fiscal reasons or SEC. They have to do it because they're trying to tell people about how to invest in the stock market and they have to give them closer to the truth. Yeah, the truth would help. Yeah, close enough. Because you can't start bullshitting them and it's also a violation of SEC and all the rest of it. You can't, you know, if you're gonna be doing

31:22 stuff about the stock market is very richly controlled and you can't be bullshitting the people without getting into trouble. At NBC of course, which is not talking to those same people, they can say whatever they want. Let me play a couple of these clips. Here's a good horror show clip. This is the one in Arizona. This is the Kovacs, that's Kovac, AZ Rap. There's going to be a bit of a wait. We're currently on hold. OK, we want to make sure we have enough tests for everyone. Tonight, Arizona hitting a record number of new cases. The state is one of the worst coronavirus hotspots in the country. Jasmine's mother, Lorena, is one of over 20,000 new cases this week.

32:05 Despite the staggering numbers, the governor resisting, adding new restrictions but urging people to stay home. We talk about the idea that we want to save lives and save livelihoods. All this will demand protesting. That was Adler, wasn't it? Wasn't that our stupid mayor, Adler? No, that was, no, that was, they all sound the same, don't they? Just the guy in Arizona. But we talk about the idea that we want to save lives and save livelihoods. All this while demand for testing surges. Long lines of cars as people wait for hours. It's kind of a treasure hunt right now, so we'll see what happens. Just got to keep looking. The governor acknowledging the shortcomings. We want to make it as easy and convenient as possible. It's not going to resolve itself overnight. And Darrell Brandt unable to secure a time slot at any of his nearby testing locations. I have asthma and I have diabetes. I'm scared to death that this could be the end of it.

33:04 So sometimes people have to wait multiple days to even find a testing slot and that of course it's not ideal because we need to start contact tracing immediately. Hospitals are now on the brink. ICU beds filled to 87% capacity. Dr. Natasha Buyan giving this dire warning. I'm really worried about where this is going in Arizona. I think people are starting to take it seriously but we are seeing this surge in cases. We're not seeing it slow down. Orange man bad. Just provide a couple of things in that report. I should bring up which is one they show Waiting lines that are have to be five miles long for cars waiting for testing because everyone's been jacked up We have the same here that's sneaking around parking lots and everything. Yeah, why are you getting tested if you have no symptoms? I'm gonna ask you this just a rhetorical question. Oh, you got no system

33:58 What? I'm going to tell you. Go ahead, ask the question, I'll tell you. Okay. A couple of... You have zero symptoms. You don't know you've even been exposed. You have nothing going on and you feel the urge because of that. You ready? You feel the urge to wait in line literally for hours and hours to get tested. John. Tell me, give me the explanation for that kind of stupid behavior. Well, starts with an M, ends with an L. Millennial. There are young people, I have to call them just for ease, millennials because Gen Xers hate the millennials and the Gen Zers hate them. Everyone hates the millennials right now, are quitting their jobs because they don't feel safe. Okay? Just let that sink in. Not even waiting for a furlough or quitting their jobs, and this is happening in retail, because they don't feel safe.

34:58 Oh my god, so and so was at the protest and they have it now. They're sick. So I'm gonna go get tested. Was that person tested? I don't know, but I'm gonna get tested. And yeah, and they'll sit in line for five hours with avocado toast and their Yeti coolers and whatever it takes to get tested. Yes, that is what's going on. They have nothing else to do. Half of them are still unemployed. And the spin studio closed down again. because of this and I was there on Wednesday and it was you know the surge the surge and remember they're only allowed to have 11 people in these classes 11 writers and one instructor only five showed up of which one was me come on people you're distanced by 12 feet in the studio I mean so anyway. Okay second point is when they and people should listen to this when you listen to these reports when they

35:58 In other words, don't listen to percentage talk. It doesn't mean anything. If there was one case and then there was five cases, oh, it's gone up 500%. So they say in that report, and I got two more of these to play, which are all from NBC, the same people as who I think it's... Whoa, ladies and gentlemen, we have a podcaster down. Podcaster down, podcaster down. Are you okay, John? Are you okay? John, John, are you all right? Be careful out there. It's not me, it's the mic. Snap that baby down, okay. Hang in there, buddy. Help is on the way. All right, so the point is, let me get back to my point, which was you don't go by percentage. And so when they say to you in this last report, and I still think it's absolute gem that you had the CNBC report, same company. Works beautifully, yeah, I love how this works. ICUs are 87% full. Yeah, well, you want high percentage rate full to make money, don't you? Well, that, but how many are there?

37:00 Yeah, I did. Are they are there 10 million ICA ICU units that are 87% full or are there 10 of them? Yeah, it kind of gives you the impression like shit. There's only let me see like 13 left. 13% left, which is hardly anything. But in your head you're going that could be 13 beds. Who knows? We don't know. The point is if you tell somebody you have 87% full, from what base? Is it a base of there's 10 total, 100 total, 1,000 total? It doesn't mean anything. It does not. So this is the kind of crap that NBC does. Let's listen to another report. This is the NBC, this is the Surge Kids getting scared.

37:44 As restrictions lift, the bars are back and they're packed. Big crowds in states like Florida, Arizona and Texas, where COVID cases are on the rise, primarily among young people. In Miami-Dade County, the number of known coronavirus cases among 18 to 34 year olds increased fivefold in just one month. Communities are now tracing these outbreaks back to bars and restaurants. 21 year old Adriana Carter in San Marcos, Texas went out for a few drinks with friends. That report didn't go well. Let me explain how this is going to work. This is how they should have done the report. 21 year old Adriana Carter in San Marcos, Texas went out for a few drinks with friends. Now she's dead.

38:36 I had a really long stressful week. What harm could that do? You know, just one night. And came home with COVID, passing it on to her roommate. The rise in cases is coinciding with the rise in spending. Data from Chase Bank shows that millennials spent more money last month than any other age group. Health experts say places like bars are a perfect storm for transmission. People in close proximity, poor air circulation, people not wearing masks or having to take their masks off to drink or eat. This video shows what happens when two people are talking. As one person speaks, particles enter the air and if they carry the virus, it could spread. The college town of Iowa City has seen an uptick in COVID cases since bars reopened without

39:26 crowd restrictions. I definitely wasn't taking it as serious as I should have. Jacob Hansel, a student at the University of Iowa, says he was exposed when he shared a jewel with others at a friend's house. Would you have changed your behavior now seeing the effects of it all? Oh yeah for sure. Obviously if we just wore a mask, spaced out a little bit, farther and not shared a jewel I Hate to interrupt your flow, but I just had a brainstorm I just had an idea how we can fix everything in one go so the Millennials And you're a millennial if you're using a jewel for those you don't know that's a the vape the jewel vape

40:12 And they're sharing the jewels, which is such a thing with the millennials. We can turn this whole thing around. The millennials, what we want is herd immunity. We want people with antibodies. We want young, healthy people who can withstand the coronavirus COVID disease and effects. And by the way, I should mention that throughout this report, none of the people were sick. They just had tested positive and they were all freaked out. And the report, along with the other one report and other reports I could also play from NBC, targeting the Millennials too. We have to note that the media is targeting the Millennials. They specifically mentioned them in this report twice. It's a very good point, but they're doing exactly the wrong thing. Think about this. We want herd immunity. We want that with the 10 to 1 antibodies which you heard in the previous report from CNBC.

41:01 It's important that we have a lot of people who cannot spread it anymore. Now would be the perfect time, and we could turn the millennials from the despised group of shits to heroes. I would personally decorate them with medals. Be an American, go out there, go to bars, we're opening up. Share your jewel, swap some spit, do all your stuff, get the virus, and we will reward you. You know what? We're going to give you money. We will reward you for doing this. Another trillion dollars of modern monetary theory money for the millennials to create herd immunity amongst the entire country. They would be the heroes. The whole thing would go down in the history books as having saved the world, even though it's bullshit.

41:49 It would be fantastic. Everybody wins. Are you nuts? Except the globalists. No, of course it'll never happen. I'm just saying it's an idea. Well, maybe you're right to point out, how does it help get rid of Trump? I'm sorry. I was thinking of the country. I'm so stupid. I'm an idiot. There you go. All right. Let's play some more of this idiocy. I'm liking it. What you got? Oh, okay. You got one more. I thought you had one more. I had definitely. COVID Florida, the Floridians are a little different because even the millennials down there are kind of arrogant about their health, which is kind of actually falls right into play with what you just said, which would be good. And they, so they don't have a good, they don't have, cause Florida is not like a,

42:36 California or Texas where you have a bunch of people that are hand wringers, you know, and worried about everything. So display this. Tonight, you're breaking Florida. Nearly 10,000 cases in a single day on the heels of 9,000 the day before. The surging numbers and positivity rates prompting the mayor of Miami-Dade to close the beaches from July 3rd to 7th. If you didn't close down the beaches for the July 4th holiday, what would the potential outcomes be? Well look, what we've seen in other holidays like Memorial Day, two weeks later we see a spike. And so this is something to stop that. Not everyone on board with that decision. I think for me, like...

43:16 You know, pretty athletic, eat healthy, work out, you know, I'm not worried about it. Honestly, I just think it's all politics in the end. As the number of cases spikes, testing in some areas blocks long. In the last two weeks, more than 10 percent of all tests in Florida coming back positive. With young people in particular driving those higher rates, Governor Ron DeSantis ordered bars across the state shut down, bar owners breaking the news to patrons. Yeah, what this will result in is more bankruptcies. One of our restaurants here, Mongers, they were planning to move just before the lockdown. They stayed open for curbside. Now they've carefully opened up. We're supposed to move to their new location this weekend and they got locked down again. They may not make it.

44:13 It's stupid. It seems so intentional, John. It seems so intentional. Yeah, it does. That's exactly what Andrew Horowitz's sister thinks. Just play this little drama. This is that this is not an ISO clip, but it's a dramatized blurb from NBC a virus invading all areas of society forcing new and immediate action with human life hanging in the balance Human life hanging in the back now all human life hanging in the balance compare that clip to the CNBC clip It's the same organization this fantastic now I

44:56 Do you remember that Australia and New Zealand, they were the smartest mofos on the planet? Like, they're not going to get it. They locked everything down. They knew what they were doing. Surely you've heard this. How come Australia didn't have it? How come New Zealand didn't have it? And what we've just... I know I should mark that time code. Now, what we have learned from many different conversations, one of them with the dog, Maurice the dog, is that this is much more dependent upon the climate and where you are in which hemisphere, etc. because it's just rolling like influenza. And when I saw the following headline...

45:37 Australia caps toilet roll sales after panic buying I knew that the it's game on it's game on down under and yeah they're spiking their people dying it's happening but even worse it was sold with plenty of promise that is Australia's ticket a ticket to freedom so we can get back to the things we love but so far the 1.5 million dollar app has hardly helped. There haven't been new contacts identified through the use of the COVID app. Victoria, New South Wales, South Australia and Tasmania yet to pick up a single close contact from the app who hadn't already been identified by contact tracers. It didn't

46:20 And in Queensland and Western Australia, not one confirmed case had downloaded the app. The COVID-19 app is not working as we hoped it would because too few people have downloaded it. Other states say tracing has been easier because cases have been in hotel quarantine. But in Victoria, the virus is spreading in the community and of the 568 cases confirmed since the app was launched, just over 30 had downloaded it. It will help protect you, it will help protect your family. The UK government's not convinced that apps are the right tool. No country currently has a functioning track and trace. I can't speak to

47:04 those comments. Australia's app doesn't notify users, only state governments when someone has been in contact with a patient and 9 News has been told in some cases the app didn't gather any data at all. The federal government is adamant the app is working. Now we really know it's broken. Insisting the country's low case numbers is limiting how effective the app could be and says it will be more useful as more restrictions are lifted and more people stand around each other. So, you know, guess what? We're moving into Australia's, you know, moving past the, I guess it's fall now, and we're moving into the warmer weather in Australia. Colder weather, I'm sorry. And so now they're going to get, New Zealand has cases, not a lot.

47:52 And there's no number on sheep, but yeah, people have died in New Zealand. That was never gonna happen. Couldn't. Oh no, they were so smart, they locked everything up. They did it. All right, all right, the marsh is down under. Woo, yeah! No. Because it's like the cold, man. This is such bullcrap. It's tearing me up, what's happening. It really, really pisses me off. It really does. And you know that our dinner on Friday or the cocktails... Oh, right. We need to stop here. No, no, no. It's this Friday. It's this Friday. No, no. It's this Friday. It's this Friday. But you know it's going to get cancelled. I already have World's Best Dad mug with my string. I'm ready to do it. Because I don't care. I'll say exactly... This is exactly what my tribe told me to do. What's this? I forgot about the string.

48:43 Six-foot string so you can know just have it on well I have to bring my own glass so and I don't want to lose track of my cup So I need to lose track of the world's best dad cup. That's for sure Yeah, the world's best dad cup because the world's best world's best dad you have to keep that cup around That's where it starts. Oh But I know I'm very very surprised that that our governor fell for it this hard, this hard. Yes, your governor. I almost had the clip, but I didn't get it. Because I didn't, I don't know why I didn't take that clip because it was kind of dull.

49:23 I don't have a good clip is the reason, but he's like, oh, you know, we're so sorry here in Texas that we probably did things too soon. We're too, you know, he got suckered. I was listening to this other people. They're listening to the New York Times and the Washington Post and CNN. And that's, you get the news from those guys, you might as well just shoot yourself. CNN, which I now call News Media. They see a noose everywhere. Yeah, noose media. Oh yeah, they got a lot of noose to tell. A quick little supercut just so we can all remember that this really is some bullcrap. We have 33 confirmed positive tests. Today we have 33 cases.

50:11 As of today, we have 33 confirmed cases. We have 33 Pennsylvanians who have tested positive. There were 33 confirmed cases in North Carolina. There are now 33 confirmed cases of the coronavirus in Michigan. More cases of the coronavirus were confirmed today in San Luis Obispo County, bringing the total number now to 33. Right now, Georgia is reporting a total of 99 cases in 19 counties. That is 33 new cases from just yesterday. There are now 33 cases in Louisiana. The number of cases of COVID-19 jumps. A total of 33 people in our state have been tested and are confirmed to have the coronavirus. Bringing the total number to 33. These latest steps as the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in Rhode Island jumps by 33 overnight. Three, that's the magic number.

51:06 It's the magic number. Now, I played that clip for a reason. We didn't get to it on the last show. If you go to any search engine, but Google will work just fine, and type in any random three-digit number plus the words new cases, you will see thousands if not tens of thousands of results regardless of what number. Did you see this going around? It was pretty viral, John. No. Oh. So if you just open up a browser page, Just any, it doesn't even matter, you can use Bing, I know you're preferential to it. And just any random three digit number, I'll do 561, and then you type new cases, and you hit return, and you'll just see one after the other of that exact, new stories, new stories of 561 new cases. So you can try any number you want. Have you tried it?

52:03 No, I was just listening to you. I thought you were going to try it. Yeah, just because it's amazing when you see it and I want you to see the results. All right. And 666. Oh yeah, classic. Go ahead, man. It's there. They're all in their cases, right? Yeah, new case. It's all there. So you see it, right? You already see the results. Now here's it took me a little bit to figure out what was going on. and people are blaming Google and saying it's fake news. Well, that's not exactly what it is. What we're seeing here is how propaganda works in the modern age, and I'm going to explain it. If you look at these results, almost every single one of them is a mainstream, an M5M outfit that is essentially taking a press release from a government office and repurposing it.

52:55 I believe this to be in many cases completely automated. This is not like groundbreaking shit that's been going on. Newsrooms are empty. There's no human being doing this. There's just a template, it rolls in and it says, well, according to Dallas County, a new daily record was set with 561 new cases. It is my belief that the way this works and it's flooded our entire news ecosystem is the government agencies do continuous updates and it's just pumping out. It's almost automatic at this point. One case, two case, three case, four case, five case, 666 cases, 667. And all the news outlets pick the feed up and republish it on their website and that's how propaganda works.

53:44 And that is unfortunately our news. It comes from central sources. In this case, it's coming from maybe the CDC, could be the county commissioner, government agencies. And many of them get their information from think tanks, etc. And this is how it works. So you can type in any number you want and it'll pop up. It's kind of messed up what's happening here. No wonder you get blanketed with this stuff. Well, yes, I agree that this is a serious problem, but it's a little different to me than targeted blanketing, which is what they're doing with the millennials right now. Oh, totally. I'm just bringing this up as something that needs to be looked at. It's background noise that makes things worse. But your point about them targeting the millennials, it's working. It's really working and it's sad.

54:41 So I had a story. They could be heroes. They could! Your idea is absolutely top drawer. But it would take a concerted effort by the propaganda machines, all of them, all the M5Ms would have to be in on it. Someone would have to come up with, oh, I have a bright idea, because it wouldn't be you. It'd be Fauci, somebody. Tom Fitton. Oh God. So it had to be somebody and then they would make it become a thing and the millennials would all get on board because they're kind of bandwagon jumpers. So if we can think of a way to do that but at the same time make Trump look bad.

55:21 Then we have a winning strategy. If there's some way of doing both those things, we're good to go. Make the millennials heroes by creating herd immunity for everybody, saving the world. Okay, I know the one way it would work, but it's pretty hard to implement. Trump himself would have to suggest the opposite. Yes! Foreign man bad. Nailed it. Now, can we get Trump to do that? Unlikely. Unlikely. Okay. I did have some more. I thought I had some more COVID stuff. I have a series of three clips if you want to do them now. COVID stuff? Corona COVID? No, no, not COVID. These are apologies. Apologies? Oh, noodle gun stuff.

56:19 Yeah. Oh, well hold on a second. Let's get everything all set up. We're gonna do noodle gun and might as well get it ready. Alright ladies and gentlemen, we've got the noodle gun out and there is a lot happening. He wrote about it in the newsletter and I am Very happy about some things that are happening with the new you have some I hope because you I have a lot of noodle I have three noodle gun things, but it's mostly not as much noodle gun as it is apologies people coming on and apologizing for something That's also noodle gun. Oh totally because you take yourself out of the picture and the one that's the most important I think in terms of culture is the is the appearance of Jenna marbles and

57:04 Yeah, explain Jenna, now, because I saw this and I've heard, I think you talk about Jenna Marble, I don't, is she... Tell me about Jenna Marbles. I don't know the backstory. Jenna Marbles is someone with a like a subscriber base on YouTube, something like 20 million people. She's one of the most famous YouTube personalities and she always, she's a character and she plays this, some woman who plays her and she's an actress but she doesn't get any work so she makes literally, literally millions of dollars doing this. And so she, Now came out without her makeup or anything didn't look like her and came out to apologize now I'm thinking I had two thoughts on this the first one was is this just the same girl playing a different character? What is she apologizing for? She's apologizing for some for being mean. Oh, okay? Well, she's getting cancels. I mean she's a mean girl. I was getting on your channel. She she's like that's her character her character is a mean girl by the way

58:06 Eliza Schlesinger. Yes has got to come out and apologize Because she is the same character that this Jenna Marbles has been right which is slamming relationships talking smack about her dumb girlfriends and and and boys and all the rest of it now that she's married To the chef to the cook Just a cook. He's a chef, man. He's like some chef, isn't he? Some celebrity chef? Yeah, he's a big shot chef. There's a couple of these smart actresses. Smart ones? They're chefs. Because they know for one thing, if they have a dinner party, you're going to pack a man. The chef was in. If you're on the upswing or the downswing, it doesn't matter. He makes burritos, apparently, according to the troll room. He probably makes a good burrito.

58:57 So she comes on apologizing for a number of things and she says she doesn't want to hurt people's feelings and she's not, you know, a lot of my day and I think this could be bullcrap but then again it might not be. I don't know and the apology is not enough of a non-apology to convince me but you should play this out. Where people will watch something and be offended now, I don't want it to exist. So I've privated a lot of my old content because I just don't want anyone to feel upset about anything. I don't want to contribute to that. I don't want I don't care. I don't care. I just don't care. I don't want someone to watch something and feel hurt or offended now for any reason at all. The first two things that I would like to address is the fact that there are people that were offended that I did blackface as Nicki Minaj in 2011 and I'll show you the clip. It's incredibly cringy and embarrassing. This is

59:58 Private. It has been private for quite some time. But it looks like this. And I do just want to tell you that it was not my intention to do blackface. This is the end of the video. Wow, did she blackface the blackface? She put black- she showed the blackface video? She held up a computer you couldn't see anything where I took my wig off I Don't know how else to say this But it doesn't matter because all that matters is that people were offended and

1:00:40 and it hurt them and for that I am so unbelievably sorry that this isn't okay and it hasn't existed on the internet for a long time because it's not okay. Uh-oh! You've been doodle gunned! Well, I guess she's gonna quit altogether. I guess she's important. Did she quit altogether? Is that what she died? Oh, no, this is I think She went to the bank. Here's the here's a funny one. This is from page sixes podcast. I want to pay some I want to do some Just read some and then do a clip Oh, you got stuff to read? Yeah, I got a whole list here of stuff to read. Go on, go over the reading stuff, Sean. Yeah, but I want... My next one has got a zinger in it. Okay, because I want... I want to intersperse it. Okay, we have the Dixie Chicks, of course, officially changing their name to the Chicks. Oh, what? Wait a minute. I understood they're going to change their name to the Dicks. Dixie Chicks, Dicks.

1:01:44 That's not true? No, that's not true. I appreciate the sentiment. Mount Rushmore needs to be removed. This is now the Oglala Sioux leader is calling for its removal, certainly as the president is going to be there, I think, next week. Employees at Condado Tacos walk off the job after refusing to fill orders for Ohio police. Yeah, baby. There you go, Condado Tacos. Retiring the Star Spangled Banner is all over the news, obviously. And then we have Mike Henry. It's been an honor to play Cleveland on Family Guy for 20 years. I love this character. But persons of color should play characters of color, therefore I'll be stepping down from the role. A guy who does a voice for a cartoon.

1:02:35 Good one. White actors in fact will no longer be characters of color on... Aren't they all of color on The Simpsons? There's no actual white people in The Simpsons. They're yellow. They're all yellow. But okay, this is CBS News reporting white actors will no longer voice characters of color on The Simpsons. So I guess... Well there goes Zapu. He just got fired. Nice knowing you, bro. I thought it was very fun to see Princeton removing Woodrow Wilson's name from the public policy school. I have a clip on that one. You can skip that one. Okay, we'll skip that one for now.

1:03:13 Uhhhhhh... Did I have... Yes, this just started this morning. The Houston Association of Realtors is now making changes to its room descriptions on its online database, replacing the term master with primary. Master bedroom and master bath will now say primary bedroom and primary bath. Particularly in the South, we've had master-slave cultures. So in a plantation, you would have a master of that domain who would then exercise control and dominance over enslaved or indentured servants. And so, historically, to say that the master lives in a certain place then sort of creates a tone that minorities are excluded. The changes come after a recent protest for racial equality. Yeah, this is complete horseshit.

1:03:59 The term master bedroom didn't start until well until the 1900s when there were actually were big master bedrooms. There's a whole etymology of the whole thing is that's a book I want to point something out that was in that clip. The use of the word enslaved. Oh, yes. You're starting to see this crop up and I remember when I first got irked by it was Thomas Jefferson had enslaved three or four or however many people he had. The term technically speaking at the time was shadow, which was not a pleasant term either.

1:04:38 But the idea of enslaving is, it doesn't make any sense. These were commodities, the slaves were commodities. And they were bought and sold and bought and sold. You weren't enslaving them. You were simply purchasing an enslaved product. To be blunt about it. Yes, okay. So the idea that you were actively... this is the idea. Ah, yeah, I hear what you're saying. To use the language to make it seem as if you were taking part in a market, you know, buying and selling, who cares?

1:05:17 You were, you personally, Jefferson, Washington, all the founding fathers, except most of them, but the ones that did have slaves. They were enslaving them as if there was a choice. The person was technically a slave, there was indentured services, a lot of them were white and they were traded like businesses do today. I would recommend people going out and reading that webpage I cited in the last newsletter, the Unilever, or Unilever, wiki page. Well, hold back, hold back, hold back, I want to get to that in a moment, I want to get to the Unilever stuff, but go ahead.

1:05:55 I just say read that page and you can see how these giant corporations buy and sell and buy and sell and you've seen it at your local areas where there were the hotels a Hilton one year, it's a holiday in the next, then it's something else and something else. And this was what the slavery system was very similar that you were buying and selling you need to you know some slaves for some moment you could get rid of them, sell them back into the market. It was terrible but you were not. technically enslaving. You weren't actively, oh there's somebody let me grab them and I'm going to enslave you as though it was some sort of bondage scene in some hokey porn movie. This is not what was going on but the use of the word enslaved is a key word. You're listening to propagandists when they say that. That's an excellent, excellent point that you're making there. That is so true.

1:06:52 And may I point out one other term we need to be on the lookout for? Problematic. Everybody is using this now. I use it too much myself. And we need to rock against it. It's either a problem or it's not a problem. When someone says, well, the NOAA Gender Show is problematic. You say, why? Well, so please say the NOAA Gender Show is a problem because... They are this or that or say this or that. But just saying problematic is actually a problem. It's problematic. But this change of or this interpretation of words out of any context, you know, that will not end if we let this go. Then of course the multi-listing services have all changed it. Yeah, master bedroom is now primary bedroom. Okay.

1:07:46 Fine. Not everything has to be seen as slavery, not every single thing, or racism, etc. But it does until, I'll tell you what, I know exactly when this will get resolved. After the election. Exactly, right after the election. None of this. They're going to be talking about blowing up Mount Rushmore after the election. Now here's something that's working and I'm a little torn about it, but not really. Facebook is in trouble and this is not just a minor thing that can just be set aside. People are very dismissive of this story, but I come from this world and what is happening

1:08:32 is problematic. Verizon is the biggest name yet to pause advertising on Facebook for the way the social network handles hate speech. Thursday, the US carrier joined dozens of companies boycotting Facebook's lax approach when it comes to harassment, misinformation and incitement to violence. Ice cream brand Ben & Jerry's and the outdoor gear companies Patagonia and North Face were among those who also backed the Stop Hate for Profit campaign. Verizon's announcement it had joined the boycott was a bigger blow to Facebook's efforts to contain the growing revolt. U.S. civil rights groups are urging brands to join the boycott.

1:09:08 The Anti-Defamation League said in a letter to advertisers it found a Verizon ad on Facebook next to a video laced with anti-Semitic rhetoric from the conspiracy group QAnon. Facebook said it's working with civil rights organizations. Carolyn Everson, the company's vice president of global business, said, quote, we respect any brand's decision and remain focused on the important work of removing hate speech and providing critical voting information. This week, advertisers said outreach to them has intensified as Facebook worked to contain damage without pledging specific changes. Earlier this week, Procter & Gamble, another top Facebook spender, said it would carry out a review of where its ads were showing up and stop buying ads where it found hateful content.

1:09:54 So that is an overview. What is taking place here is it may not be reversible for Facebook because, well eventually it will, but it will not be reversible until after the election because this has an anti-Trump element to it and it starts as a You can't allow Trump to put lies in his ads on Facebook. And we know that Twitter said, we're not going to do that. We're not going to take any political ads. Okay, so now I'm not going to make any money this time around, idiots. Facebook said, no, we're not going to do that. That's when the woke woke up.

1:10:33 And they said, oh really? Well, yes you are because we're going to shame brands that are funding through their advertising dollars hate, because orange man hate. And you are letting hate propagate and we're going after the brands. And the problem Facebook has specifically on Instagram Time and again they have said, we've got the staffing, we've got the algorithms, we've got the technology, we're scanning, we remove millions of hate shit per mega week. per user hour. We got this covered, yo! No, they don't. And this is again the reason why we have cancel culture, demonetization, is not necessarily the political thinking of the organization. It is the advertisers who want no controversy. Now, some people are saying, well, this is really convenient. I need to cut back on spending anyway. So they're just covering it up like this. That person is real. They've talked to me many times.

1:11:39 No, let's go to advertising, Ad Week actually. This is one of the Bibles of the advertising industry. I'm going to read this. So in general, just some numbers so we understand. The global pandemic is expected to shave $11 billion in US ad revenue from linear and digital properties this year. From $224 billion to an expected $213 billion year over year. Meanwhile, advertising on social media is expected to grow by 7% this year, according to the forecast. But to win over media buyers, publishers must assure advertisers that brand messaging, likely crafted with special attention to appear genuine at times, will be in a brand-safe environment.

1:12:25 Now we have some quotes here from some industry people. If you want your brand to be loved by people, you have to stand for something more than making money or making a product. Yes, we know this. Facebook brought in $70 billion in ad revenue last year. When in doubt, Most clients are going to spend their money in safer, less controversial places because there are so many choices today. Advertisers typically look to attract and use the brand equity of tested properties that audiences have already chosen. If you think that audience levels will erode, then your value is diminished.

1:13:01 Brand shaming is what is taking place and these insiders are saying the conversation has to be loud enough, has to be meaningful enough to the advertisers and Facebook is trying with a counter-offensive. Yes, we're going to label Trump's post, we'll do all that, but the list of companies that have already said they are pausing, stopping for, here, I will just go down in here, Coca-Cola, no social media advertising for 30 days. Honda, stops all spending as of July. What else do they have? We have Unilever you had in the newsletter I believe, but the list here

1:13:42 that has been targeted by sleeping giants who will not relent. You see, they will not relent until Facebook says we're kicking Trump off, basically. Only then will they relent. They will keep going after any advertiser and they'll do screenshots. Oh look man, your ad showed up next to hate. They don't even care what it shows up next to. They don't want to be in a press release. They don't want to be in a viral campaign run by anybody. Listen to this list. I'm just trying to pick out the big names. Actually, the Atlas Pet Company is pretty big. Blue Shield of California. Let's see. Coca-Cola. We have Kraft. We have Unilever. We have Dockers. Eddie Bauer. These are all pretty big. This is real money. We heard about Verizon. We got Honda in there.

1:14:38 They have a Google Doc which is updated continuously. Patagonia. Yeah. Yeah, they're all the big dummies are doing it because and I agree they're afraid of their own shadow and heaven forbid. but it's gonna give an opportunity. I know what you're thinking about Facebook, but Facebook's mechanism is one of the most powerful ever presented to advertisers. And it's been the whole, it's borderline on the holy grail of advertising where your ads go out to specifically the same exact people that you wanted to see the ad based on their interests or whatever.

1:15:21 These guys are hurting themselves as far as I'm concerned. These advertisers who knuckle under to this character, it's sleeping giants with a clenched fist. The socialist clenched fist is behind the whole thing. Your capitalistic companies get a clue, figure out how to deal with this. Apparently they can't. And of course, they're millennial employees who are willing to quit. They're willing to quit, walk off the job. Oh yeah. They're willing to walk off the job because they don't really know how to, what money is. And they, uh, what is this? They, they are there to encourage these companies to knuckle under. Unfortunately, uh,

1:16:01 There are good millennials and bad millennials, sensible millennials, millennials who have some common sense. Well of course. Have some good, have actually had good schooling maybe, which is rare. So it's a minority. Or no schooling, they seem to do better. It's a minority but they're there and they are the smart ones. You have to figure out who they are and hire them. But these other ones are pretty dangerous. The ones that are in your company when they have to be because it's a whole age group that needs to be hired. And they want to walk off at the drop of a hat. They'll tell you, no, no, no, we're going to walk off if you don't stop advertising it on Facebook because Sleeping Giant says that they're pro-Trump or something. Well, I'm going to say to you right now,

1:16:39 That yes, they are afraid of their own shadow. CEOs of these advertisers, of these brands, are very afraid of their position. They've seen what's happened. They're not going to take the risk at all. I don't think that they may be hurting themselves. In fact, they probably are. But so is Joe Biden, who is on board. Move fast, fix it, tell Facebook, promote real news, not fake news. Quickly remove viral misinformation. End the pre-election lie period. Enforce voter suppression rules against everyone, even the president. Move fast, fix it, Joe Biden. He's on board with this. So this is now, this is part of the political process. Facebook, I hope, and that's why I'm saying this, I hope dies.

1:17:25 I hope they are shrapnel to death. Yeah. This would be great. This would be such an improvement for life. It is a danger to everyone's health. I'm thinking it could happen. It could only happen, unfortunately, if you look at the history of Facebook in terms of the cultural impact, it stems from LiveJournal. and other forums that were first being as forums, then they became commercialized as Live Journal, and then they went to MySpace, and then they went to Facebook. And unless there's another step on the ladder, which I don't see, that's not gonna happen.

1:18:08 People need this sort of out. They need this sort of thing. They need a system. It's it also replaces Facebook had the Apparently had the ability to also kind of suck away the whole AOL experience and move it into Into its domain so AOL died because Facebook sucked it sucked it out It's like it's just like the salt sucking monster in the old Star Trek show well So you're saying that no alternative is out there for people to move to the next phase even though there's alternatives but no no heir apparent? Yes, that's what I'm saying. Okay.

1:18:47 If I see one, you will see it before I do because you're an optimist more than I am. And you, because you think Mastodon's going to kill Twitter, you know? No, I said Federation. Federation. Federation of social networks could do it too. But then again, that doesn't open to the, see what's missing from that is that Facebook really is, They did 70 billion dollars in advertising ad revenue. They have a mechanism that the newspapers don't have. They're jealous. They'll be glad to see Facebook go away. The newspapers, screw Facebook, they're not writing anything positive about any of this. Oh, Facebook, horrible, horrible, horrible. Yes, exactly. We love it. It's funny. And the same with the TV stations. Oh, that Facebook, I don't know.

1:19:34 Facebook has sucked 70 billion dollars away from these other greedy pricks. Let them all die we say. With that I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you the man who put the sea in cultural impact John C Devoran. Well, into you, into you, into you, Mr. Adam Cree. In the morning, to our trolls who have already spanked during the show today. They're at the troll room. Let me do a quick troll count. Troll count, troll count. Wow, 1854, not bad. Not bad for a semi-lockdown.

1:18:47 If I see one, you will see it before I do because you're an optimist more than I am. And you, because you think Mastodon's going to kill Twitter, you know? No, I said Federation. Federation.

1:19:34 Facebook has sucked 70 billion dollars away from these other greedy pricks. Let them all die we say. With that I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you the man who put the sea in cultural impact John C Devoran. Well, into you, into you, into you, Mr. Adam Cree. In the morning, to our trolls who have already spanked during the show today. They're at the troll room. Let me do a quick troll count. Troll count, troll count. Wow, 1854, not bad. Not bad for a semi-lockdown.

1:20:14 The trolls hang out at noagendastream.com. Once you're in there, which is a live troll room and you can listen to the stream, it's kind of synchronized. You can listen to the stream at the same time, troll around, chat with each other, just troll. Troll around, troll around, troll around. And while you're there, ask for an invite to noagendasocial.com where we have a federated social network of our own. No ads, no bullcrap. Talk to the entire world and subscribe and follow anyone from everywhere unless they've blocked us, but who cares? It's what happens. It's democracy. It's democracy. I love it. Yes? Yes, we don't have advertisers that can be pushed around and that would in turn have to tell us what to report on, what to discuss.

1:21:00 what to analyze and people realize that this is very important because there's not that many sources left that it can be actually honest and the stuff that we had in the first half of this particular show you wouldn't hear any of it especially contrasting CNBC's reporting of COVID with a regular network report. And we didn't plan that that's just how it goes sometimes. It's just a coincidence. Everything's a coincidence. Then I want to say Ross Easterling is not a coincidence Hold on you're forgetting the art. I love how you know our art Yeah, we had some really good artists last year Segway was good, but it just you pop the cherry I'm sorry I heard you going I loved it. I loved it. I

1:21:45 But unfortunately, it's no good. Let's do one more for safety. Yes, I'd like to thank the artist for the artwork on episode 1254. Of course that was titled Vax'ilene. Vax'ilene now also memorialized for all eternity in a fabulous animated No Agenda episode. Thank you very much Dame Jennifer. Laugh my ass off. The cover art was done by Darren O'Neill. I believe that's two in a row for Darren. This time around. And it, I mean, how, first of all, the art is great. His art is just always, there's something about it. It pops. I hate to say it, but it pops. It was the stereo. The more I listen to Darren on his

1:22:36 Podcast and then look at his art and everything. I'm convinced that that what Darren should do is he should it's cut give him Cut his hair bald give himself a very thin goatee and become an interior decorator with a lisp That because he's got taste. Yeah, he has taste he has style and he could be very high-end. Yes Very very high-end So he picked up on the stereo goat cream That was my brain fart and it just turned into a thing and we liked it. It was funny and it looks like a package for something you can buy and and it does. And to be fair about it, we had already and typically, you know, sometimes the the title apparent and the artwork clash.

1:23:28 And as you know, we try never to have... We have three elements that are post-produced of the show. One is the artwork, one is the title, and one is the opening clip that we play. And we try to have them all be different, not relate to the same thing. So even though there was interesting Vaxelline art, we really wanted the title to be Vaxelline, I think. Yes, we did. We already... So the Vaxelline art pretty much got negated immediately. Yeah, because there was a couple of good pieces. Yeah, they were good. So, sucks. I'm sorry it sucks. There's a nice Club 33 piece of art though that I like. There were some outstanding pieces. By Comet Strip Blogger that I'll probably use somewhere.

1:24:12 Anyway, that was the art. Yep. Yes, so that is it. No agenda art generator comm that's where you can always Find the latest pieces of art all the things we just talked about they get used in newsletters No agenda shop calm those guys and they put it on mugs t-shirts hoodies neck gaiters You name it split the proceeds with everybody. It's a fabulous part of our value for value network. Love it mean it and And we like to thank the people who support us financially, the ones who come in as executive producers and associate executive producers are titled as such and mentioned in this segment right at the top of the show kind of. Yes, and I do want to, there goes the segue. I was looking at the art, sorry. But anyway, Ross Easterling is our first top of the guy, top of the order guy with $666.66.

1:25:02 And he comes in from New Braunfels. Oh, Jesus. I've been listening since Adam's appearance on JREM sending 666.66 signal dismay and outrage of HR 6666 COVID-19 testing reaching testing reaching and contacting everyone trace. Oh yeah. I request the ISO enough is enough and please dedouche me. I can dedouche right away, but do we have this ISO? Enough is enough? Is that something I should know about? You've been dedouched. Let's see. Enough? Oh yes! Why yes it is. Yes, hold on a second. Enough is enough. There you go. People know it better than we do. Chris Blanco in Mayfield Heights, Ohio comes in with 350 bucks.

1:25:51 This donation will put me over the top for knighthood. Counting below, it's taken me a while, but I finally made it to the No Agenda Roundtable. I've been listening to the show since 150. I'd like to be known as Sir Real Estate of the North Coast. I would like grass-fed liver. By the way, really? I've had grass-fed liver. It's really not very good. And pork belly added to the round table feast. I would like to wish my ravishingly beautiful wife Dame Ashley Lavey... Hold on, hold on, hold on one second. You can take one order of the grass-fed liver off for the round table. John's not having any. Give him the vegan option. Yeah, okay. Vegan liver. I love the livers of vegans.

1:26:39 Dame Ashley, Lady of the Lake, a happy anniversary today, June 28th. We have been married for six years and I couldn't imagine a better wife. I mean she likes action flicks? Science fiction, sports, sex and most of no agenda. Oh no, most of all no agenda. Wow, this is a wonder woman. I have one like just like that. Does she like guns? Does she like guns though? Then you know you're in like twins. She likes the shooting. You know how we are trying to survive the terror which is the reign of the Rhino, Emperor Governor Mike DeWine. We are waiting on him to issue the order that makes masks mandatory all over. We got that in California. We have a governor that does that. We have it. He tried once and then retracted the next day, but I think he's going to try again. It's so stupid here that's in Cedar Point, a large amusement park near us just made masks mandatory everywhere in the park, even on coasters and rides. We canceled our yearly three day trip there for that reason.

1:27:39 I cannot think of anything less appealing than spending a 90 degree day outside with a mask on. I mean, can you imagine being on a coaster going 75 miles an hour and someone's spit and sweat soap mask flies off and hits you in the face? It's outside, people. Stop with the masks. Anyway, said it right this time, Adam. I will conclude by giving a shout out to the Northeast Ohio NA meetup we are having at this at the Winking Lizard in Peninsula, Ohio, on July 10th. Earl Walkman of Buckeye at Methos. His lovely wife Dame Ashley at Dame Ashley. And I, Chris Blanco, or at I, Surreal Estate, all hope we can get a great turnout.

And that is the end of our list of associate and executive producers and executive producers. And I want to thank each and every one of them for helping produce, if not completely producing show 1255. Yes. And for those of you who are new, although it seems that people coming over or crossing over from JRE are, you know, they get it pretty quickly, but people are getting hit in the mouth all the time.

1:39:30 It's just purely about value for value. It's the simplest concept ever and we've been doing it for over a decade. All we ask is that you translate whatever value you got from listening to it and it's very personal for everybody, that's a personal thing. You can't judge anyone on what they find valuable or how they measure value and for some it's services. Yeah, we like the services. But you can translate it into numbers. Numerology is a big thing here as well. And just put that into PayPal. It is that simple. And that enables us to do the kind of show that we're doing. There is no advertiser or corporate money or any way that we'll be able to talk about any of these things if we had any other model. So we appreciate you keeping it going for us because after all, you are producing the best podcast in the universe. These executive producer titles and associate executive producers titles are the real deal. Feel free to contact us if you need us to vouch for them, put them anywhere where real production credits are accepted and recognized. And please join us for our

1:40:34 Um, Thursday show by going to this website. Can't get over how much we've learned already in just a short hour and a half, but it's true! Our formula is this. We go out, we hit people in the mouth. You know what's kind of interesting? Yeah, what? Is that when I started doing my apology clips,

1:41:12 And then you started reading some apology clips. Somehow I never got to do my other two apology clips. Even though I called for them. Yeah, we fell away. And then we started talking about something else. I hate it when that happens. Let's go back and do them. What was it that we were talking about that was so important that we interrupted the apology noodle tour? I don't know. We went to Facebook somehow. Oh yeah, we both and I jumped in too. It's my fault. So let's take a listen to the last two clips I have. Now this one here is an actress named Leah Michelle. Okay, do we know her? Who came out with a whole bunch of tweets about Black Lives Matter and then some black actress who worked with her on the Glee show

1:41:59 slap butt slammed her for being a douche. And actually was even worse than that when you listen to the very beginning of this clip and then you hear the apologize, the apologies. This is from the page six. I love I love how you have the lingo of the kids so down john. She butt slammed her for being a douche about how Leah Michelle behaved on the set of glee. Okay, I'm already I'm already done. Listen. You're missing them. You're starting over because I can't look without that. That's how it starts by the way. I know but you gotta listen. You can't step over the beginning because there's a little point of information that you will like. All right give me a piece of wood to bite on. All right. About how Lea Michele behaved on the set of Glee after one of her co-stars said she threatened to shit in her wig and made her life a living hell. Right, Lea Michele had

1:42:53 posted something about George Floyd's death. And then this co-star from back in the day came back to remind her, hey, you made my life a living hell on the set. Samantha Ware is that actress's name and she said Leah's behavior made her want to leave Hollywood. So on Wednesday, she apologized and she said, one of the most important lessons of the last few weeks is that we need to take the time to listen and learn about other people's perspectives and any role we have played or anything we can do to help address the injustices that they face.

1:43:30 Then she goes on to talk about when she tweeted the other day in support of the Black Lives Matter protests, she hoped that she could show her support for her friends and neighbors and quote, communities of colors during this difficult time. But, you know, this response from Samantha Ware was not what she was expecting. So she continued with her explanation saying, while I don't remember ever making this specific statement and I have never judged others by their background or color of their skin, that's not really the point. What matters is that I clearly acted in ways which hurt other people, whether it was my privileged position and perspective that caused me to be perceived as insensitive or inappropriate at times,

1:44:12 or whether it was just my immaturity and me being unnecessarily difficult, I apologize for my behavior and for any pain which I have caused." That's a lengthy apology. It's a lengthy non-apology. This is a fantastic case of the shit in my wig. And I didn't know this was an insult. I'm not aware of this insult to shit in someone's wig. Did you look it up? I think she was being literal. I think so too. I'm reading the tweet now. Of the accusation I believe you told everyone is all caps that if you had the opportunity you would shit in my wig Hmm this must be an actress thing yeah, if you're on it because it's all around the show right so they're there on the show they put on wigs and makeup and maybe

1:45:10 All I know is this is the classic example of some dumb actress deciding that she, oh it was a black, oh I should do that and maybe I'll get more roles if I'm in line with Black Lives Matter so I'm gonna tweet something stupid out and then meanwhile an actual black actress says how you were as a dork jerk-off and So she stepped in the shit that she should have put in the wig. Now that I consider it, that's probably really a racial thing. It's considered a very racist remark if she said it to a black woman. I would think so. Because black women often wear wigs.

1:45:51 Yes, they do. Now the last clip I have is the Woodrow Wilson cancelled thing, which is to me is beyond hilarious since Woodrow Wilson was actually the president of Princeton before he became president of the United States. Yeah, yeah. He was a racist in 1912. And this is going back and now they go, oh well, you know, he was a racist, I guess. And Democrat, Democrat, don't forget. Isn't he pretty much the founder of the Democrat Party? No, this goes back a lot. Today, Princeton University... Andrew Jackson, I think Jackson was. Jackson was, you're right. What am I saying? Jackson was. Yeah, Jackson wrote about Woodrow Wilson in a book. No, no, Jackson was dead by the time, I'm pretty sure. Wait a minute, wait a minute. Can we play this clip?

1:46:39 Yeah, play the clip. It's very short I see. Today Princeton University announced it will remove the name of former President Woodrow Wilson from its School of Public and International Affairs and from Wilson College. In a statement, Princeton's president said quote, Wilson's racism was significant and consequential even by the standards of his own time. Yeah, by the standards of his own. That's bullcrap by the way, but this beside the point, this tells me that Yale has got to go. Well, yeah, something has to happen. I've come up with a solution for Yale. Does it involve millennials spreading COVID? Because then we can do a twofer. No, it doesn't. What it entails is that to have a ceremony to rename Yale to a different Yale guy. In other words, another guy named Yale. The guy from the locks? Who isn't a slave guy. The lock guy?

1:47:34 Don't maybe maybe the lock guy the lock one Or did or did no you can't do that because lock well, maybe no locks on chains Oh slavery the color of law by Richard Rothstein is the book you want to read if you want to read about How racist Woodrow Wilson was he segregated government? I mean that that that's what he was known for and he did that in 1912 and Well, if it was beyond the pale, like it was, like Navarra, whatever the guy in PBS said, he said it was even beyond the pale, beyond further than anybody in that era. If that was true,

1:48:22 then as soon as he got out of office that everything would have been reversed almost instantly. No, of course not. No, it wasn't because it wasn't true what he said. Everyone was a racist like that in 1912. Well, yeah, that's... Especially the Democrats, just to make that clear. Yes, yes, but he did as president segregate government. the government offices, the wall, he segregated all of that and he kept saying, I just don't want any friction. According to this book. I just don't want any friction. What an excuse. I just don't want any friction. But by the same token, John Wayne Airport now has to be renamed because in 1971, John Wayne, 1971, which was just a few years after the Civil Rights Act was signed into law,

1:49:11 He said something incredibly racist in either Playboy or an Esquire magazine, that he felt that the blacks at the time, the blacks, no I think he may have said Negroes, that they were, they had a lot of growing up to do and he didn't feel that they could be in government until that had happened. And so 1971 when he said that, which granted it's fucked up, certainly with the lens of 2020, ooh, Uh, but now we have to change it to... That's our only lens. That's the only lens we got. And now we have to change the airport. My goodness.

1:49:54 There's a big statue of John Wayne at the airport right in the middle of the yeah It's like just a drive-around kind of Airport. Yeah, it was small. It's a very small. It's a cozy Airport. Yeah and The statues right there is a giant statue so they're gonna have to tear that down and put red paint all over it Yes immediately I don't understand how it lasted that long. We got an email, I'm gonna say it was a week ago, but I think since then I've certainly heard more about it. And it was one of our producers and she, although it's interesting, she sent us this thread of some message conversations she had had on I think it was Facebook or Instagram with

1:50:39 Maybe she even said, this is a real Karen to me. And this woman was, she had known from, you know, she grew up with her, went to school with her. And this woman was all about, you're white, you're a racist, you're white, you're a racist. And she'd gotten into a dialogue with her. You recall this thing that she sent us? No. Well, you will because you asked her to actually send a list of all the great material that this ex-friend of hers... Oh yes, I remember this completely. Of course I do. She's been giving us a lot of material. Right. Links. Links. And it was someone who was just saying, you're white, you're racist, get over it, that's the fact, just shut up already. And you, I think you brought it back to the resistance movement, which the Rotar Mayfrock show and whatever it was.

1:51:27 the workers rights, what was it, some organization that is really the... World Workers Party out of New York. No, you had something else. You've been following... Oh, there's one in Europe. Yeah, it came from a European. That wasn't me, that was her. She came up with that. Okay. Well, one of the things that this ex-friend of hers had said was, you need to read this book. Do you recall that? Yep. And the book is White Fragility written by Dr. Robin D'Angelo. And Dr. Robin DiAngelo, let's just give a little context, who is a white woman, she has a, let's see, from the Wikipedia, an American academic, lecturer and author working in the field of critical discourse analysis and whiteness studies.

1:52:19 Yeah, she's formerly served as a tenured professor of multicultural education at Westfield State University and as an affiliate associate professor of education at the University of Washington in Seattle. Well that makes sense. She's known for her work pertaining to white fragility, a term she coined in 2012. Okay, I think we know enough about that. So I'm not sure what whiteness studies are, but she is a tenured professor in it. And she was on the, I guess, The Tonight Show, or Jimmy Fallon and Guest on Zoom.

1:52:59 That must have been thrilling. Well I'd like to play a few short clips from that and I'd like to discuss what she's doing here and what this is all about. So again the book is White Fragility and we'll start with Diane, here's kind of her setup as to what is going on in the world. Your book, White Fragility, Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism, this came out in 2018? Yes. And it's been on the bestseller list ever since then? It has, yes. And right now it is number one on all the lists I looked at. And it's also, from what I read, it's sold out everywhere as well.

1:53:47 An unfortunate time for it to be sold out, but yes. And this is important, this segment, because I believe a lot of people have been told to read this book and the numbers or whatever they're saying here about the New York Times bestseller list and it's sold out. I mean, and he's promoting it. Oh, don't worry. It's on Kindle. Tells me this book is being passed around. Yeah. Well, yeah, I'm sure. I want to mention something. I believe this was originally going to be a book about her sex life called White Frigidity. And she Something her editor helped. This is where editors come in, by the way. You looked at their picture, didn't you? Stop that. An unfortunate time for it to be sold out, but yes. Yeah. Well, here's what I did. I got it on Kindle. Ah, okay. I don't know if you saw this. It went viral online. A flight attendant was greeting people on her plane and some gentleman came on and he was reading your book. It opened up a whole conversation.

1:54:43 Yeah, I'm glad you brought that up because it's actually illustrating several really important points about this. I mean, on the one hand, the story was special because a black woman and a white man had engaged conversation. He talked to her with humility and openness, and that was exceptional. Okay, seriously? You're telling me that that situation that happened, specifically on an airplane, that was exceptional that these conversations never happen? Okay, when I'm sitting next to a black person, I usually punch him That is the implication obviously this Exception Give me a break now, but she's going to explain why this happens Why this is an exception but this let's just notice that that that would be exceptional. You know, there's a question I often ask when I'm in front of

1:55:44 Come on, I want you to listen to it. It doesn't work if we don't let her speak. But let's just notice that, that that would be exceptional. You know, there's a question I often ask when I'm in front of a mixed race group. And I ask the Black people in the room a kind of rhetorical question. How often have you attempted to give a white person feedback on their inevitable and often unaware racist assumptions or behaviors and had that go well for you? Never. Number two response, rarely.

1:56:20 And I'll never forget asking a group, okay, so what if you could just give us feedback on our inevitable and often unaware racist assumptions and behaviors? And I'll never forget this black man raising his hand and saying it would be revolutionary. And you know, just like, just take that in. I just want all the white people to just take that in revolutionary. Wait, you got to listen, listen to this. I just wanted to have the full effect. And you know, just like, just take that in. I just want all the white people to just take that in revolutionary that we would receive the feedback with grace, reflect and seek to change our behavior. That's how difficult we are. Wow. That's how big a a-holes we are. Yeah. Yeah. Says Jimmy Fallon.

1:57:08 That's how big a-holes we are. That could never happen. Could never happen. A couple of things. Yes, please. She hates Trump. She's a classic liberal and this is the way liberals think. This is why the liberals are the big promoters of all this kumbaya stuff and they'll never live in a neighborhood that's got one black person in it. They're responsible for rousting them. Oh, there's a black person. I don't know. I mean, they're the ones who are the hypocrites, you know, you are what I... I am what I say you are, guys. And this is the way they think and this is what you're witnessing as an example of it. She's probably right on the money with her group. It gets a little... yes, it gets a little worse.

1:57:55 And I do have a couple more clips and some deconstruction. Now what she does, I don't think she is a professor anymore, but she has on her website services. And this is her, I'm just reading it from her website. I provide keynote presentations on whiteness, white fragility, race relations, and racial justice. Many key points can also be made more conversationally through a fireside chat style dialogue with another person. A partial list of clients includes many colleges and universities, as well as Amazon, W.L. Gorin Associates, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the Hollywood Writers Guild, the YMCA, The Innocence Project, Seattle Public Schools, City of Oakland Metropolitan, Council of Minneapolis, University of Sydney, University of Washington Medical School, and Unilever.

1:58:42 I know it's a payoff, isn't it? So you can choose the... You had me too. I was about to cut your list off. I felt it. I felt it. I knew it. That's why I was rushing through it. I got to get to Unilever. So you can choose for a keynote or a fireside chat. These typically run about $12,000 for her or she has a nonprofit Education for Racial Equity, which says they're not-for-profit organization. They are not listed. They have not filed any IRS Form 990EZ or otherwise, so maybe it's brand new. She's been around since 2018. She should have filed something by now. But there we have what you can actually get under their offerings. And here she is. You can get the virtual three-day intensive.

1:59:37 Seeing the Racial Water, an anti-racist three-day intensive for white people with Dr. Robin DiAngelo. Or you could get a virtual half-day workshop, Seeing the Racial Water, half-day anti-racist workshop. So, and she does these all over the country, all over the world, and makes a lot of money doing this. And of course, she has the book. She also, yes? I was going to say, you may be going there already, but this is a version of the Al Sharpton scam. Yes.

2:00:15 I'm glad you went there. I might not have brought that up as the conclusion, but the scam is actually quite interesting. I just want to play one quick clip. It's pretty short of her defining racism because it's important to understand her definition of it since that has changed and quite recently even by the Webster Dictionary definition. White people often say I'm not racist. I know I know you have, I have done things in my life I recognize as racist today. I would not do them again. They were neither intentional or even conscious and yet they wounded other people nonetheless. I think white people should remove that phrase from their vocabulary. I'm not racist. It's not, trust me, it's not convenient. Trust the white lady to tell you what you are.

2:01:05 Trust her. It's not, trust me, it's not convincing to black people. As long as we define racism as individual intentional acts of meanness, then I would agree with you that most white people are not racist. But when I'm talking about the racism that I have, the racism that you have, it's, it's the result of living in a society in which racism is the foundation. We all absorb it. We all absorb it. There's no way we could exempt ourselves from it. And so we need to change our question from if I'm racist, to which most white people will say no.

2:01:44 to how have I been shaped by the forces of racism I was born into and how is it manifesting in my life? It's a really different question. But if I ask if and the answer is no, what further action is required of me to challenge racism? I'm sorry, that was done. It was over. No, Fallon should have given her the hook. Fallon should have pulled that interview. What was the point of it? To sell her book, obviously. It's not funny. Her book? No, but you do understand that he is the host of The Tonight Show and they need to virtue signal just as much as the rest. Oh, you missed out on this one. I what? He was caught in blackface. I know. That's the latest scandal. Oh, well, I'm sorry.

2:02:31 There you go. I didn't know this. So there you go. That's of course he needs to he is going through a custom program from the good doctor and he is being washed of his bias and is being sprinkled with goodness because this book in particular This lady it's the cure It's the cure if you if you have the book if you read the book if you talk about the book You have to understand this is considered a cure And I have proof. I have proof. What? Why do you say that? I don't know, it felt like I should be saying that. Here's another doctor. This is Paul Maxwell, PhD. I learned from you when a guy just has PhD behind his name, he's the real deal. So Dr. Paul Maxwell is going to break down what this lady is saying. So we will begin by talking about a particular book. This is a book by sociologist Robin J. D'Angelo, and she writes in her book called White Fragility, Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism.

2:01:44 to how have I been shaped by the forces of racism I was born into and how is it manifesting in my life? It's a really different question. But if I ask if and the answer is no, what further action is required of me to challenge racism? I'm sorry, that was done. It was over. No, Fallon should have given her the hook.

That's the latest scandal. Oh, well, I'm sorry.

2:02:31 There you go. I didn't know this. So there you go. That's of course he needs to he is going through a custom program from the good doctor and he is being washed of his bias and is being sprinkled with goodness because this book in particular This lady it's the cure It's the cure if you if you have the book if you read the book if you talk about the book You have to understand this is considered a cure And I have proof.

I learned from you when a guy just has PhD behind his name, he's the real deal. So Dr. Paul Maxwell is going to break down what this lady is saying. So we will begin by talking about a particular book. This is a book by sociologist Robin J. D'Angelo, and she writes in her book called White Fragility, Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism.

2:03:31 And she's a white female. And D'Angelo writes that white people are so dazzled by their whiteness that their own regular, normative, explicit, and implicit reasons for violence against racial minorities are actually camouflaged to them. So they almost can't even conceive of themselves as racist. But not only are these racist practices camouflaged to whites, but when these practices are brought under the stage light through conversation or reading or cultural messaging, and when they are diagnosed or highlighted and challenged by minority culture, such that white culture's enchantment with its own whiteness is threatened,

2:04:12 that they resort to denial tactics which refortify their enchantment with whiteness and center their own whiteness and recenter their own whiteness as the cultural center and the cultural norm and recast minority ethnicity and culture as marginal and exotic. I think he's spot on with this analysis. I think he completely nails it. But he Again, this is the cure, this book. And there's kind of a test for it too. I think this is the clip where he talks about it. Programs such as racial bias training. Right, that's it. So racial bias training is what this woman does. And she spun that into quite the career right now. And basically when you're a consultant or anything, any kind of job like that, the best way to get work is by writing a book. It's a well-known formula.

2:05:07 And if, yeah, if we could write books we'd probably do it too, but it requires traveling around. And she's making good money doing this, particularly at companies like Unilever. So here we go. She trains people and she blesses people like Jimmy Fallon. Programs such as racial bias training and implicit bias training have been suggested as cures to perceived racism among whites. And this is how scientists have have begun to quantify racial prejudice among whites to give them a test that shows them several dozen black and white images of faces of various races on the screen, right, and classified an ability to distinguish between the faces of participants' own race versus faces of races to which the participant didn't belong. Okay? So, any extended delay in the participant's ability to distinguish between other race faces

2:06:01 was classified as social stereotype and therefore a low score on what they called the affective lexical priming score. So in other words, if you're a few milliseconds slow on distinguishing black faces from one another, you're racist. So this is what she does. This is the kind of stuff that she does, different versions of it, but it's like, okay, look at these pictures. And you see good bad black white and and if you say the wrong thing Because you thought the black or black person in the picture was the bad thing then you're racist And this is like parlor trickery to me Wow. That's a good series NBC and this is a while back did a piece about this very test and the results are

2:06:57 are quite interesting. Okay, I'm ready. Okay, here it is. During the first half of the test, black is linked to bad and white is linked to good. For Rhonda, this half of the test is a breeze. She never makes a mistake. Okay, very good. Now, we'll give you the other one. Remember, she's an expert in racial issues. But let's see how she does when the information is reversed. When the left box, marked bad,

2:07:39 has a white face and the right box labeled good has a black face. Suddenly the test becomes much more difficult for Rhonda. About a third of the way through she makes a mistake linking the white face to the right box even though that shows a black face. I lost it. Rhonda's score indicates a strong preference for white. Is this because she unconsciously associates white with good? Oh my, the expert appears to be racist. Oh my goodness, let's try some black people. And as revealing as those results are, the biggest surprise is yet to come. Joan is a sales and marketing consultant. Even for many black test takers, the more challenging part of the test seems to be when black is associated with good and white with bad.

2:08:36 Okay, didn't get halfway through. We'll start over. Ready? After two attempts, she still can't make it to the end. I've done it again. Even so, Joan still thought she'd show a preference for her own race. Would you be surprised then, Joan, if I said that your test showed a slight preference for whites? What? Yes, I would be. Does it shock you? She's racist! Yes. I... You're flabbergasted. I'm flabbergasted. And Joan isn't alone. Dennis is the leader of a civil rights organization. According to his test in the studio, Dennis is neutral. But his individual computer test showed a preference for white. His response? All we had in images were white. Oh, okay. Through the type of media outlets that we were exposed to. Do you see where this is going? I mean, there's two more clips. I don't know if you want to hear them, but obviously

2:09:31 The test is bullshit. Yes, obviously the test is bullshit. And this is what this lady is showing. It's just a bullshit test. There are tons of bullshit tests out there and when you get a hold of one and you use it as gospel, especially if you want to prove a point, apparently this test keeps proving the same point, which you're a racist is the point. Yep. And no matter if you're black or white or anything. So yeah, and that's what this woman is exploiting. Good for her. Well done. Well, I think what is phenomenal, what she's achieved, is that by virtue signaling this book, by saying you've read it, is almost on par with a cure. You're pretty much, you've had it, you've had the racist virus. It's the vaccine, man. It is the vaccine for your racist virus.

2:10:29 And that's all you have to do. I mean, you'll still remain a racist in a racist society. And please pay no attention to 75% of young black men not growing up with a father. It's just, please, it's all systemic racism. It has nothing to do with poverty. Dream on, Karen. You don't need a father. All the Hollywood people have proven that. It's really not. They're the models. Yeah, yeah, well they're doing a great job. They're doing a very good job. Anyway, because of all these studies, these whiteness studies, etc., we've seen STEM come under attack and now there's a letter to the, I don't think I read this, did I? To the mathematics community.

2:11:19 Do not work with predictive policing. Do not work on mathematical models with police departments. We need to stop that. We need to boycott that because they're trying to whitewash racism with math. Unfortunately, the math doesn't work in their favor. You know, the math shows statistically something else is going on than what in particular Black Lives Matter Inc. is saying. I mean, it's just, it's hard evidence. Yep, there was this other thing that I was reading about the safe cities. Did you ever hear about this the safe? Strong cities not safe strong the strong cities the strong cities network

2:12:06 Okay, I'm listening. The Strong Cities Network, which I think was funded, there was some stuff in Congress that funded it. 26 cities and municipalities from different regions across the globe, cities and municipalities selected for the steering committee were chosen based on their leadership for the Strong Cities Network and this was 46 of them in the United States. It was a United Nations-backed project or initiated project that would change policing in the strong cities network. Okay, I'm still listening. So which cities? Can you name any of these cities? Yes, Minneapolis, New York, Austin, all the places where it's shit.

2:13:00 Literally the places where it's shit. Atlanta, Austin, Brownsville, Texas, Camden, New Jersey, Chester, PA, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Dallas, Denver, Detroit, Flint, Michigan, Fresno, California, Gary, Indiana, Hampton, Houston, Los Angeles, Los Angeles County, Las Vegas, Memphis, everywhere it's shit. Wow. Thank you, United Nations, for once again helping us out. Blue hats forever. Yeah, this was their globalist solution to making it better. And arguably, in a lot of these cities, they made it worse. Huh. Well, this is a scandal that nobody cares about. Okay, let me try this scandal for you. One of the board members of Black Lives Matters, Inc.,

2:13:55 Well, not really, you know, Black Lives Matters Inc. There is no non-profit, so it's all run through Thousand Currents. One of the board members, let me find what her name is, Susan Rosenberg, was the vice chair of Thousand Currents Board of Directors. They're the people that apparently run the whole Black Lives Matters Inc. It turns out that she was part of the May 19th Communist Organization, which carried out its bombing campaign to create a contrast to former President Ronald Reagan's Morning in America campaign. It got her a spot on FBI's Most Wanted list. She was arrested in New Jersey in 1984 unloading 740 pounds of stolen explosives and a submachine gun from a truck.

2:14:44 She was however released from prison in 2001 after having her sentence commuted by Bill Clinton after serving 16 years of her 58-year prison sentence. So she was on the board and now she's been washed off of the board and off of the website and it's all gone. I think that's just too delicious to believe. Wow. Okay, well in other news of stupidity, so have you heard this that Amazon bought The key arena up in Seattle. Yeah, the naming rights or whatever. They bought the naming rights. Yeah, they bought the naming rights and they've named it Climate Pledge Arena.

2:15:27 Climate Pledge Arena. So everybody in the family's yucking it up. Wait a minute. Meanwhile... Isn't it also going to be completely energy neutral or something like this? Oh yeah, sure. Yeah, in Seattle where there's no sun, but okay. And there's no wind necessarily in Seattle, but let's just forget all that. But It was last show where I had this clip I didn't play and this explains their naming of the arena as Climate Pledge Arena. If you just listen to this clip. Amazon is reporting a 15% increase in its carbon footprint despite efforts to reduce its environmental impact. The online retailer says it emitted more than 51 million metric tons of CO2 last year, the equivalent of running 13 coal power plants for a year.

2:16:16 Okay, so that's a bit much for a company that's gonna be carbon neutral How many car how many coal-burning plants for a whole year were they spending a carbon footprint? So, oh god, let's just just just I tell you what this will make up for it. We'll call this this arena climate play I'm thinking how much did they pay for it because it sounds to me like that's a carbon credit deal and They probably get some carbon credits to offset that and they take a tax deduction. You know Bezos is coming out ahead on the deal. We haven't figured it out yet. We haven't figured it out yet, but you know that that's just as clear as day. So now you got climate pledge. Climate pledge. Climate pledge arena. Apparently the NBA has received approval from the CCP

2:17:13 to on the back of their jerseys instead of their name to have their favorite social justice slogan. No. According to sources. Yep. What? So there's gonna be some stupid slogan on the back of the players jerseys? China is so smart. China is so smart. The CCP has us just where they want us. Confused, A little divided, stupidified, sick at home, sick at home, worried sick. And then they're just doing the great leap forward, the cultural revolution, attempting to change the culture of the United States. The CD, I didn't have the clip unfortunately,

2:18:05 The CDC director, they had a phone call with the press, said that they were considering to use TikTok for messaging to the young people about social distancing, mask wearing, etc. Hello China! CCP! We know that these video apps are only for messaging. YouTube is for messaging. TikTok is for messaging. And we're walking right into it, letting them drive it. Head shaker. And it's not the Tourette's. So I was watching, we have a couple of things that we can touch upon. I have quite a bit of clips. Yeah, go for it. I'm ready to listen. I'm listening. The bogus story of the week, which is played up by the New York Times with no attributions really, just like somebody said to my brother who is a source, who said a source and blah, blah, blah. And then played by our buddies at NBC with a

2:19:05 in the middle of the report saying this entire report is unverified but we're going to report on it anyway. The Russian bounty report. Oh yes. Tonight the stunning claim that Putin put a bounty on American soldiers is ratcheting up pressure on President Trump and his relationship with the Russian leader. Set off by this story from the New York Times that a Russian military intelligence unit offered bounties on the lives of American soldiers in Afghanistan to Taliban linked militants. The Times writes that U.S. officials concluded the rewards were offered last year, but it's unknown if 20 American deaths there were connected. NBC News has not confirmed this reporting. Tonight, the White House offered its first response, stating neither the president nor the vice president were briefed on the alleged Russian bounty intelligence. Joe Biden made it an issue today. His entire presidency has been a gift to Putin.

2:20:05 But this is beyond the pale. It's an extraordinary, most sacred duty. Former U.S. Ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul calls this a dire turning point. That is a radical escalation of his militias towards the United States. And I think it, if it's true, demands a very firm response. and the top house Republican on the Foreign Relations Committee has a stern message for President Trump that if the bounty report is accurate, the administration must take swift and serious action to hold the Putin regime accountable. President Trump has long urged a drawdown of US forces in Afghanistan. We want to bring our soldiers back home.

2:20:47 We want to bring them back home. Denials coming from the Taliban and the Russian Foreign Ministry, which called the bounty reporting nonsense. Kelly O'Donnell, NBC News, the White House. Wow, yeah. This is as long as what they've really moved to and everything is political right now. Everything is political. Is they've moved to the killing part. He, Trump is responsible for tens of thousands of Americans being dead. Trump is responsible for 2000 Americans being dead. It's like we forget about, hey, who sent people to Afghanistan? Like.

2:21:25 our kids over there to die. He's trying to get, he keeps saying he wants to bring them back. I think he's sincere about that. But the point is, is when they, within this report, they said, well, they were the 20 dead from, you know, a few months ago or over, over a period of months where the 20 dead part of the system of bounties. If there was a bounty, it would have been a little more than 20. There would be shooting people left and right. Just one or two really good snipers. you know, that learned their trade from the Russians could go up into the mountains and just be picking people off left and right. 20? That doesn't sound like something going on. The whole report is bogus. And do we have a source? Do we have an original source on New York Times? Of course. New York Times, it's the giveaway. And like Eric pointed out, he's bitching about this. He says, look at this. He says, why? It's got a byline with three people on it.

2:22:22 Oh, Maggie Haberman, no doubt. Well, no, probably not. She's got to keep her name off of these things. But but the fact when you don't need three people to write a short story that's got no sources, what do you need three people for? The three sources like you. They source each other. They can't fire all three of us. They're sourcing each other. Hey, what did you hear? I heard this. What are you? I heard this from that guy. Oh, we all heard it. Yes. I would tell people to be very skeptical of any byline with more than two people on it and then even then but three people on a byline is fishy.

2:23:11 Overkill scene and then you run into a lot of these stories with three people on the byline you go to the bottom of the story and it will say in boldface additional reporting by And they have another three or four people listed You know what I'd like to know if you maybe you can tell me clearly all these people aren't working on the story But is it possible they do this so they all get a taste of the of the Pulitzer and Because they all, hey man, let me in on that great story or so I can get a Pulitzer. Actually, there's some, that is a good observation and I think there's some truth to it except for the fact that when you're on a Pulitzer story, you know you are. This is not a Pulitzer story, this is just a Trump hate story. It's not going to win a Pulitzer. But that's also important. Hey man, can I virtual signal with you? Come on, come on. That could be an element. I want some goodies, man. I want some butter biscuits. Yeah, let me know.

2:24:04 Hey man, I let you in on my story. I showed you mine. That's right, man. Alright. So we have to tolerate this. And again, most of the public laps it up. I gotta get a recording of my basset hound lapping up water. It's the funniest sound. I think it'd be a regular on the show. Do you have the basset hound at the house or is he up in Washington? There's a basset hound in this house. There is a basset hound. Not the one that we used to... Remember that one that you always bitched about? The howler. Oh my goodness. She's making noise all the time. That dog is, and you go, oh, that dog doesn't sound right. That dog sounds sick. You should get her to the vet. I never said that. I said that. You did. You were like really sympathetic to this dog's whining. And by the way, talking about whining in Basset Hounds is like redundant. I barely remember this. This is a long time ago. It was a long, that dog's been dead for five years at least. Oh, there you go. We never, you never had a proper goodbye.

2:25:09 Okay. I'm going to show my school by donating to No Agenda. Imagine all the people who could do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fab. We have a few people to thank for show 1255 as we rocket towards 1256. Now we have a donor from Rotterdam, Cohen Monster, and he wrote a note or she, it's a he, I don't know if you want to read this. He does need a de-douching, so let's start there. Yes, I will do it. Shall I do it in a Dutch accent? It's been a while since we've done this one. Okay, you can do that. Van Koen, Koen Monster at Rotterdam. Sean, say it with me. Rotterdam.

2:26:08 Thanks to Robert Jensen because he mentioned you guys in his show. Thank you. Please de-douche me! You've been de-douched. I would like to compliment Kuhn on spelling de-douche properly. Most native English speakers do not get that properly spelled, so good work. I became a monthly donor but I'd like to put in an extra 50 and 50 for my three, three and four year olds cause the wisdom gains from your deconstructions make me a better father. Hey, what you say to that, hey?

2:26:45 BLM's tactics are based on Saul Alinsky's rules for the radicals. Worth looking into this. Adam, you talked with Mo about a $20 bill being called a dub. In the Netherlands we had a dubbeltje. It might have to do with doubling the highest value that was available before introducing a new one. Okay, thanks for being the anchor of the otherwise drifting sanity Coen Monster from Rotterdam. Thank you, Coon. Stop by some more. That was very nice and I love the 33s in your donation. Thank you, Citizen. I didn't know that Jensen was plugging us on his show. Of course he does. Good for him. Yeah. Well, I gave him our formula. Oh, good. Yeah. I said, this is nice. Then he owes you. He owes us. John Vincent in Burlington, Connecticut has a birthday. He's in for $100. Matthew knows.

I have a note that I wanted to read Okay, as he wrote it by hand and it's on a card and you'd want to send us a check and you put it in the card and you have a handwritten note I'm reading it. Nice. This is my second donation, no agenda, but I've never received a dedouching. Could I get one? Right away, right away, sir. Right away. This enclosed donation is for 666 because of something Adam said on the show 1251 last week. Uh-oh.

2:28:41 After playing a Tim Cook clip. He said that quote Tim Cook needs to watch his six For a number of reasons that was the end of the court. I laughed so hard. I nearly lost my mind Anyway, keep up the great work and stay safe out there in wacky for Nia Yes, the comedic stylings of the podfather never ceased to amaze Onward with, and it was Gary Blatz next, 66.60. And he's in Wayne, Pennsylvania. Dame Ashley, Lady of the Lake. I think we had an earlier donation related to her, 6280 from Mayfield Heights, Ohio. It's an anniversary present for her amazing husband.

2:29:31 And remember she's coming up in 628. And he'll get his knighthood soon. And so he can join her at the round table. Love you Chris. I love you Chris. She's been having a ball at the night.

Duke overboard! Duke overboard! I doubt it. And that concludes our list, which is kind of a short list today, but we want to thank each and every one of them for helping get the show done. By being producers. Of one and done, yes. By being the producers of this program. The best show in the universe, the best podcast in the universe. Noagendashow.com. Soon to be updated, but you can check it out already at thewholeload.com. Also special thanks to people who donated and supported us and sent us some value which was under $50. We do a cut off for two reasons. One, it would just take up too much show time, but

2:32:06 People can also do that anonymously. And that's the definite cutoff. You'll never be mentioned, so you can support us under that level, whatever you want, as much as you want. And there's people who are on our subscriptions. Please check them all out. You can find a very detailed list of how you can support us, how you can be a producer of the NO Agenda Show at... Now before we continue, I do have a make good, which I screwed up twice and working on the back office finally got it figured out. This is for Austin Ramsdale. I think he was the $1,001 donation and because it was a different... this is just a lot of the problems, different names on the PayPal, emails not matching up, it's sometimes...

2:32:49 stuff slips. So anyway, here's his note. So this is from two shows ago I believe now. Thanks for doing a make good on my 33rd in on my 33 in binary which was one oh oh oh oh dot oh one donation. I couldn't miss the opportunity to have my boss and friend of 10 years called a douchebag. David Carlock! I hit him in the mouth several months back and after a few listens his amygdala seems to have returned to normal size. He may require a second D-bag to get through his thick skull. Also I'd like to call out Brian Hagenmayer as a douchebag.

2:33:28 Two quick questions. I know it's been talked about before, but has anyone put together a short five-minute primer or intro for No Agenda onboarding? I feel like the nuances and inside references creates a lengthy two to five episode onboarding period that could be dramatically shortened with a concise intro start here episode. We've tried this. We've done this. It was called episode 100, 200, 200 and a half, 207 eighths. Personally, I think animated NOA Agenda is a great way to introduce people to the show. It's short, it's visual, like, oh, okay, I get it. And it's usually humorous, so I think that's the best way. Animated NOA Agenda, look for it on YouTubes everywhere near you. Secondly, I've tried to find the NOA Jingle jingle repository in the past. I think there's an opportunity for a jingle generator. No, I'm gonna stop you right there, really appreciate it.

2:34:18 A, we don't put the jingles online because other, not just other podcasts, but other radio stations, morning shows will take them and use them. They steal it. They steal it, uncredited. And there's too much work going into it by our producers. However, you can always try to contact Phone Boy. He's able to help producers and that's kind of your gypsy ring if you're looking for something specifically. I'm also happy to send it to people who email me, but don't email me all at the same time. Jingle generator, no. We've tried this, we've tried the only thing that really... Works for us is the art generator jingle generator to steal the sword to steal exactly Jesus has no agenda across every artwork. Yeah, but once you once you getting down the jingles It's just gonna get stolen and also it'll be another place. I have to go look for shit There's already too much too many places. I'm trying to pare them down and streamline it because it's just too much information So anyway, thank you very much for

2:35:16 Appreciate it, he says. He winds up, no jingles but need lots of jobs karma which I will redistribute equally to all in the Gitmo Nation. Love and light. PS, the end of show tune for 1251 with Anderson Cooper giggling may be the best post-show song I've heard. Kudos to whomever crafted that amazing piece of work. I don't recall but yes. Again, our producers, our end of show mixers, all fantastic. And thank you for your support. Here is your Karma. Jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's vote for jobs. You've got Karma. Where was... I'm sorry? I'm sorry, you're going to blow into something. Oh yeah, birthdays. Just back to that note, where was he from? Do you have any idea? Yeah, let me just check. Because I'm wondering if it's the same David Carlock I know.

2:36:12 I don't know where he's from, doesn't say. But Carlock is a douchebag? Was that your point? No, no, well he douchebagged him. Is he a douchebag? Well, yeah, he could be. I thought you had first-hand knowledge, I don't know. Well, I know the guy, but I haven't seen him for a decade. The band was getting tired of starting over every single time. Here's your birthday list for today. Kevin Knutson says happy birthday to his smoking hot trophy wife Jill. She turns 64 tomorrow. Send pictures. John Vincent celebrates today.

2:38:14 Mutton and Mead. Go pick yours up and also make sure we have your information for your ring, your sealing wax, and your official certificate at noagendanation.com slash rings and thank you so much for supporting the show. You are the producers and you make it all happen and it is really appreciated. Yeah, like a party! I do have one meetup report and it was from one of our donors today from Florida. That was Sirlo Sybin.

2:38:51 And he said, despite having to make last minute changes due to a surge in Florida, the Tampa Bay day drinking meetup was a success. I tried updating everyone as much as I could to the venue change due to Florida closing all bars and the day prior and was grateful for the turnout. I kept hearing, if there isn't one in your area, start one. And that's exactly what led me to meeting this awesome group of individuals. The camaraderie is what you'd expect, but it was also, I was still surprised to see human resources with amygdala so small. Lessons were learned from Murphy's Law, but I know we will all meet up again and more to join. Sir Sirlo Syben of the Psychonauts

2:39:32 And they had the biggest heads on sticks I've ever seen at a meetup. Did you see these photos? Yeah, I saw the one. The one is the size of a picture window. It's huge. I thought it was photoshopped in at first. I think that's actual, our heads, I mean, that's crazy. It's definitely funny. I have a meetup report from the local 512, 512 local meet shoot up at the Lone Range, the Lone Star gun range in Lockhart, Texas. Once again, we had good turnout. This is not your typical meetup. So it's really just we all stand behind the firing line and we're all geeking out on each other's guns. Hey man, want to shoot mine? Yeah. Can I shoot yours? Okay.

2:40:20 And you learn a lot and there's training and we have Sir Scott of the Baron of the Armory is so incredibly gracious and he brings all of his guns and he supplies all of his ammo to almost everybody. We also buy ammo to support the range obviously. Can I ask a question? Yeah, sure. Well, is it fun shooting? Well, I had a lot of fun because of some of the guns I tried. Now, can you, can, the real question is did anybody bring or shoot black powder? Almost, no. And I think it, you have, if you want to shoot black powder, I think you have to talk to them beforehand. Yeah, I think you show up with it, but they allow a lot. For instance,

2:41:09 Now we had people from San Antonio come up and we had a couple of guys from Dallas who came down the night before and stayed at a motel in Lockhart just to be at the meetup. And one of these dudes, he had a 1930s Russian rifle with the bayonet on it. Of course. The bayonet is rusted on when it comes off the factory. The bayonet, well apparently it's very important for the balance and the barrel reverberations and it's a beauty of course. It's part of it, yeah. And I bolt action and I shot in the middle of the bullseye with this thing. Of course the barrel actually almost reached the target it was so long. And just... Those things are accurate. Oh yeah. And an observation.

2:41:56 Your typical gun owner does not look the way you think they look. We might as well have just called this nerds with guns. I mean, we're in shitty t-shirts with weird messages, lots of beards, but skinny scrawny guys. How would you describe what people's stereotype is? Because I'm not sure what it is. Oh, redneck white Texan with an AR-15 strapped to his back saying, hey! Alex Jones, I guess that kind of idea, but we're yeah, we're nerdy. We're geeky. We're not all white We're not all male Very interesting and just the array of guns space guns with hollow sights and oh my goodness. It was a lot of fun And that means it's time to just give you a quick overview of what is coming up on the sea

2:42:51 Today, which is already, it's about to start, the Kansas City Meetup, Sunday Funday edition with Dame DeLorean and Sir Spencer Wolfe of Kansas City. Also today probably underway in Plymouth, Michigan, No Agenda Local, one afternoon hangout. Let's see, we have Tuesday, Montreal up north still needs a plan, hand planning if anyone can help. Mark C has got something on the calendar, noagenda meetups.com. Thursday, July the 2nd, Central North Carolina meet up at 7 o'clock at the Red Oak Brewery in Whitsett, North Carolina with Rich, aka dude named Ben, cheap bastard and other sort of expletives.

2:43:32 Next Saturday, the Mid-Island Candanavia BC meetup at 3pm, and that is on the Candanavian 4th of July. They have one. It's on the 4th of July. Meet Mid-Vancouver Island at the... in Nanaimo at the Old City Station Pub. Tom organizing and... Hey, pretty good. Yeah, and... Most people can't pronounce Nanaimo. Oh, I do? Oh, thank you. Nanaimo. Also on Saturday, the Midland Texas Meetup, 2 o'clock at Little Woodrow's. Sir Michael of Calgary in Vegas and Sir Kyle of West Texas are organizing in Midland, Texas. And if you need to see more, just go to noagendameetups.com. If you can't find something near you, go ahead and make your own because No Agenda Meetups, they're like, hey! Sometimes you wanna go hang out with all the nights and days. Do do do do. Do and a few ways.

2:44:28 Like a party with a slide whistle. Before we continue, I have an ISO suggestion. ISO, yes, I was waiting. Which is taken from that one clip that I thought was so funny. Yeah, this one. Human Life ISO. Okay, there we go. With human life hanging in the balance. I may have some competition. I have this one. It's gone! It's gone! Which you haven't heard the clip for yet. And I have this one. I am a lone wolf.

2:45:14 All right, that one I would vote for. That's kind of cute, isn't it? Well, then we're done with that part of it then. I would like to play the clip where that one ISO came from. It is a prognostication from the oh-so-intelligent smart James Carville, who has been a Democrat strategist, consultant, a winner, a winner for decades and decades. And he has a prediction about Trump. Yes, I think there is a better chance that Donald Trump does not run for re-election than he's re-elected. There's no chance he's going to be re-elected. And if you just take the events of the last 10 days, obviously he has no control over the virus. He has no control over the tensions in the streets. He doesn't even have control over a North Carolina Republican congressional district.

2:46:05 It's just nothing. He's lost control over everything. And of course, I see people call me with 15 different private polls today, statewide polls, congressional polls, you name it. It all confirms everything that we're seeing now. And you can see the fear in the voice of these Republican politicians. I mean, zero chances of being reelected. Look at Peggy Noonan's column in the Wall Street Journal coming out tomorrow, the Wall Street Journal editorial page. Brian, you've been covering American politics almost as long as I've been involved in it. The Wall Street Journal editorial page is the go-to place for right-wing economic conservatism. It's gone. It's gone. And somebody's going to have to go tell this guy, look, you just can't risk the humiliating defeat that's going to come your way.

2:46:59 Now, of course, if we remember the 2016 election, this is almost identical. All the Republicans are freaked out because they're gonna lose, the Republican Party is gonna get swept. We can find those clips. They're gonna get swept out of office. It's gonna be a landslide and there's not gonna be a Republican in anywhere. They're gonna be gone. And they're just a freaky bunch. So I think he's probably right about them being kind of freaky still. They're always freaky. But I want to remind the president that we'll be electing then is this guy. This is the 120 million dead clip. Unnecessarily, now we have over 120 million dead from COVID. I got feedback about this from one of our douchebags. Oh, it's a sub clip.

2:47:44 This is one a-hole who emails me and usually me but sometimes puts some other podcasts. His name is Ed Zee and you just want to hear how he's thinking. It's his job you see to set us straight and to make sure we understand what the world's really happening in the world. He's one of many but Yes, I one of many people that have nothing to do with this show probably never listened to and definitely don't donate and do not support us But his feedback can be done in a voice you might appreciate I love this voice

2:48:20 You're against the people voting by mail because Trump and his staff do it. But if lots of it do it, then it will turn into a democracy. That's a fear for you, you Republicans. You don't want freedom of the press if it's... By the way, calling me a Republican is a huge insult. That does piss me off. You don't want freedom of the press if it's critical of the stable genius. You want the cops to kill people because cops are mostly good blokes. Seriously. You think ABC... Get for me? Lind? I don't know. I don't know. That word just popped up there. I don't know. You think ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, The New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, PBS, NPR, and the AP, UPI, and Reuters are never fair, just fake news? You're wrong. They're honest journalists!

2:49:08 You listen to the genius Howard Bloom once a week, but you always throw him under the bus with, but we should go to work. Pander much? I don't know what the fuck that means. All the news, all the news you use. This is, this is a, you got, hold on. I like the voice. I'm sorry I had to interrupt it. But what's he talking about with this Howard Bloom thing? This is a, this is a form letter that he apparently sends to a whole bunch of people. That, that must be it. Yeah. We don't talk about Howard Bloom ever. No, well listen to this. All the news you use comes from Drudge Report or Bannon's Breitbart. Trump's not a Republican nor a conservative. Read George F. Willis' new book on what a conservative is. Book him on the show. Promote it. Of course we don't... Ah! Another blunder. Uh-huh.

2:49:58 We don't book people for this show, so why would we book him on the show? So you don't listen to the show, you don't know that this is a show with no guests. And here it comes. It's a conversation and a deconstruction of news stories. So he's got, so this is a form letter that this idiot sent to you. Well wait, wait, here comes the kicker. study Biden and when he said 120 million dead Americans in the next sentence he corrected himself and in the clip early it's a cheap nasty trick. He never said 120 dead American million Americans he just said 120 million dead from COVID but okay he's got details wrong. Well that's it it's a cheap dirty trick well you just did John C. Dvorak and he warned me that that would happen

2:50:48 You Republican! Well, I'm not registered as a Republican and the curious thing is these roles are all public. They're public domain. You can look me up in Alameda County and you will find that I am registered as unaffiliated and I've been so for probably over 10 years. Unaffiliated is the only way to go. It is truly the only way to go. I had you can think what you want in these guys and that is a very bad note because he's got two or three things in there. They're just bullshit that he's accusing. We drudge report. When's the last time we ever I haven't even looked at the drudge report for five years. I don't even know what that what I get from it's just a bunch of links. We can do that. Not of course not. Yeah, do all that some TV viewing tips or some streaming tips.

2:51:38 I want to mention a couple of things that I've been watching. Top of the list, I'm not quite sure if it's going to work as well for everybody as it works for me, but the Will Ferrell Eurovision movie I found beautiful. Have you watched this? I haven't even heard of it. Well, he basically, Will Ferrell plays some idiot in Iceland who has always dreamt of winning the Eurovision Song Contest and it chronicles his journey to the Eurovision Song Contest. The movie was paid for in part by the European Broadcasting Union. It's a funny movie, especially if you understand the campiness of the Eurovision Song Contest.

2:52:28 This must, I think in Europe it'll be a smash. I don't know if everyone here gets it, but it's a cute movie. Most people don't even know what Eurovision is. It's a cute movie. It's very, it's problematic I would say. Furthermore, I've been watching, I've almost finished World War II in color. Oh yeah, that's a great series. Well, it pissed me off that I'm on episode 10 and there it was. Well, this literally was Hitler saying, let's make Germany great again. Oh yeah, I saw that. That was annoying. They slipped that in for some unknown reason. It was very annoying. It's a little anti-Trump action. If you watch the first world war, which is on Amazon, you'll actually learn something without any propaganda. Yeah.

2:53:16 The takeaway from it is we shouldn't do that again that World War two was shit, but that's not like you have You know the thing about that is that's the one that's emphasized the most yeah when you watch the first World War is the name of the series yeah ten episodes It's not only worse, but I've been completely misled all my life and In fact it was a world war with action all over the place. Yeah for years It was it was the worst thing and everyone didn't it just This thing, it's a frightening, it came out I think in 2006. I could be wrong, it could be, but it was done by the BBC or Channel 4, one of them over there, and it floated around. It won a number of awards and then it disappeared and then they repurposed it and put it on Amazon. It's very educational.

2:54:14 Much more so than the other one. World War II in color is not as educational as this. You learn a lot. Also educational but disappointing was Disclosure. This is the documentary about transgendered people. Not really a documentary, it is a Hollywood production with Hollywood celebrities talking about how Hollywood has portrayed them like shit. all throughout the years, and it's every single person you hear talking about transgender and trans lives matter.

2:54:50 And it was so disappointing. All you have is beautiful people talking about how screwed they've gotten, which is completely true, and their experience is horrific. And Hollywood has been... the portrayal of trans people in Hollywood has been shocking when you look at it through their lens. Unfortunately, It's all about Hollywood. There's not a single part in this whole special about, you know, normal people who are ugly and transgendered. And if you're not Miss Glamorous and you can't make yourself, it's mainly

2:55:30 Male to female transgender or transition that's discussed another thing. It just irks them You know they should have done at least 5050 because it is 5050 But the whole thing was they're fucking angry at Hollywood Laverne Cox for not giving them money I'm angry at Hollywood. Where's my bit? I can't even get a bit part. It's not that's not the takeaway, but I was very disappointed. I don't think it furthered anything for people who have questions or... Well then that's a pan. We should have sound effects for this. It's a total, it was a pan. Yeah, it was a pan. I was very, but interesting for perspective and I recommend everyone, everybody watch it. It's Hollywood is very, as this trans thing has been going on in Hollywood for a hundred years. It's really fascinating. You have no idea. Well, I would recommend to put it on a light side, a rewatching, which is available on me TV over most broadcast networks uses as a sub channel.

2:56:30 The entire series of Hogan's Heroes. But wait, before it gets taken down... Documentary. Fantastic, fantastic documentary. It's a documentary? No. You know, that's gotta come down. You know that has to come down eventually. That's over for those guys. That's just, that's gonna get cancelled, wherever it is. And that will do it. I think we've brought you up to speed, but we look forward to seeing you all again on Thursday. Coming up on noagendastream.com, grumpy old Benz. Episode number 71.

Rolando Gonzalez and of course the ever effervescent Jesse Coy Nelson.

2:57:26 Coming to you from Austin, Texas, Capital of the Drone Star State's Opportunity Zone 33, FEMA Region No. 6 if you're looking for it on the governmental maps. Until Thursday, in the morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Valley, I'm John C. Dvorak. We return on Thursday. Please remember us at dvorak.org slash NA.

What? Give me a break. You know what? The universe dimension B.

2:58:34 in a kind of a bubble of poorly swollen amygdalas. They are rampant. They're just idiots. It's a drama. You'll screw up. You think critically and objectively, which is incredibly important. We're providing the information. It's a great opportunity to hit me in the mouth. Don't be a- We must! Ah! Saviors of the universe! Father, we thank you tonight for all your blessings you send and all things give thanks. Lord, I want to thank you for my smoking hot wife. You cannot, you cannot escape God. Every single one of you have a smirk behind that little mask, but every single one of you are going to get punished by God because none of you, none of you know what the hell you are all talking about. That mask is killing people. It literally is killing people.

2:59:32 You cannot escape God. I'm gonna say that again. You cannot escape God, not even with a mask or six feet. We the people are waking up, okay? And every single one of you that are obeying the devil's laws are going to be arrested. Every single one of you. So when the cameras, the 5G comes out, what? They're gonna scan everybody? We gotta get scanned? We gotta get temperatured? This is insane. What happened to Bill Gates? Why is he not in jail? Why is Hillary Clinton not in jail? Why are all of these pedophiles that are demanding you all to listen to their rules, why are they not in jail? And then you want to open this meeting with a prayer to God.

3:00:29 Are you praying to the devil? Because God is not listening to that prayer. Because all of you are practicing the devil's law. It's a secret ceremony. It happens twice a week on Thursdays. Oh, is it because you're part of them? Are you part of the deep state? Your time has expired. The deep state is going down. And any of you are in the deep state, you're going to be in the deep state. You're going down with it. I'm a podcaster, I have my decibel meter. And you guys are way over 100 decibels, which I believe is against the World Health Organization's sound level for daytime work. You should cease and desist. And by the way, donate to my Patreon at patreon.com slash Karen. We're here today to do a fun experiment where we show how easy it is to spread germs. Can you take it off because I cannot hear? I'll just speak louder, sir. Okay, good. You want to be politically correct. Go ahead. No, sir, I just want to wear the mask. And then the other thing we can talk about is masks.

3:01:17 masks. Mask wars is heating up. When you wear a mask, you say I respect you. That's what the mask says to everyone you walk past. And please don't fuck with the mask all the time. When you play with it on your fingers, you risk contaminating your eyes and your nose while you're adjusting your mask. As we cover our faces and practice social distancing, our face masks making us socially distant. I've made it clear I can't stand seeing people walking around without a mask. The newspaper article that as late as March 31st, there was no consensus on wearing masks. What about a month or so or two or three ago when people were saying you don't really need to wear a mask? Hell, I would rather die from coronavirus than to live the rest of my life in fear and wearing a damn mask.

3:02:08 The debate over wearing face masks is creating a sharp divide among some Americans. Masks are now mandatory in all public places throughout Palm Beach County. Masks will be required indefinitely in most places. Masks, they're not mandatory everywhere of course, including some of the states where they're seeing that rapid increase in cases tonight. It's our bodies, it's our choice whether we're going to wear them, not wear them. You guys are overstepping your boundaries 100%. It's, yeah, it's annoying. A new model from the University of Washington suggests that some 33,000 lives could be saved by October 1st if nearly everyone wears a mask. And I woke up in muscle like a mad dog. Let's wear those face coverings.

3:02:55 Let's work together on this and beat COVID. President Trump this week suggested some people choose to wear masks not for protection, but to signal they don't like him. I can't even get service at a restaurant if I don't have my mask on. A couple of months ago, people were just walking around willy-nilly. How many people died because of that? I just think it's the greatest public health scandal in a generation. Forget the politicians. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don't. Code 1201. Does anyone see how sick this is? Trump is, in my opinion, the first woman president of the United States.

3:03:47 Do you think that the country will see the first gay president or a first woman president? We already have it with Obama. No shell is a transgender people. Oh my gosh. She always has this pooch, but she's wearing either a codpiece or has a gemmatelli. It's inappropriate. It's not nice. Trump is, in my opinion, the first woman president of the United States. We the people are waking And we know what citizens arrest is because citizens arrests are already happening. Every single one of you that are obeying the devil's laws are going to be arrested. You cannot escape God, not even with the math or six feet.

3:04:34 Are you insane? Are you crazy? I think all of you should be in a psych ward right the heck now. None of you know what the hell you are all talking about. They're gonna scan everybody, we gotta get scanned, we gotta get temperatures, the kids have to go to school with masks. Are you praying to the devil? Because God is not listening to that prayer. All of you are practicing the devil's law. This is insane. You cannot escape God. I'm gonna say that again. You cannot escape God. The best podcast in the universe. MoFo. Dvorak.org slash N-A.
