About this episode

The Electric Reliability Council of Texas faces intense scrutiny as Governor Greg Abbott and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez trade blame for a catastrophic grid failure that left millions in freezing temperatures. While political narratives focus on the Green New Deal and frozen wind turbines, evidence suggests a systemic lack of winterization for natural gas pipelines and nuclear sensors triggered the blackout. The crisis forced Austin residents to manually light gas stoves and coordinate survival efforts via Telegram as local media outlets like NPR remained silent during the emergency.

Energy expert Meredith Angwin details how deregulation and Enron-style market mechanics allowed megawatt-hour prices to surge from $25 to a $9,000 regulatory cap during the freeze. In the medical sphere, researcher Rosemary Fry challenges CDC Director Rochelle Walensky regarding COVID-19 variant pathogenicity, arguing that lab-based deep mutational scanning fails to reflect real-world human transmission. Meanwhile, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg initiated a total news ban for Australian users in a high-stakes standoff with the government over the Media Bargaining Code, inadvertently disabling emergency service pages during the dispute.

Radio history takes center stage following the passing of Rush Limbaugh, with the hosts recalling a personal meeting at the 21 Club and Limbaugh’s surprising status as a dedicated Mac enthusiast. The segment captures the cultural shift of Fauci-ing, a new dating trend where users on Plenty of Fish reject partners who ignore pandemic protocols. The episode concludes with a skeptical look at NASA’s Perseverance rover landing on Mars and a series of listener-funded knighthoods for the Gitmo Nation.

Texas Winter Storm, Personal Preparedness and Infrastructure Failures

A personal account of the February 2021 Texas power crisis describes maintaining a home above 50 degrees using gas appliances and insulation. The narrative highlights widespread infrastructure failures in Austin, specifically noting how tankless water heaters cracked due to electricity loss and freezing temperatures. Neighbors in the local cul-de-sac faced significant plumbing damage while local news and streaming services remained largely inaccessible.

00:00 Pull my mask over my nose. Live in the dark winter and broadcasting live from Opportunity Zone 33 here at the frontier of Austin, Texas. Capital of the drone star state In The Morning everybody! I'm Adam Curry And from Northern Silicon Valley where some people are finally admitting it's global cooling going on. I'm John C. DuVoret It's Crackpot & Buzzkill! Yes thank you for pointing that out this is somehow overlooked detail of what's going on here

00:43 I mean we're in Texas people. Polar Vortex! Well it's been very interesting the past couple of days. Everyone is listening to this show right now, to hear the poop. The hands-on story... First of all, I'm very happy with our personal preparedness during this crisis. And I'm super happy with the performance of our house. These are things that matter especially the house which turns out to be so well insulated that we really were able to maintain above 50 degrees at all times and we had a gas stove and a gas fireplace

01:39 So that was super good. Having the keeper with me, it's like... Whoa! You okay? No. I mean yeah, but the glass almost broke. Oh okay. Phew! Scared me You know, the Keeper grew up in Indiana and lives in Chicago. And she's used to being without power for days on end from her time in Florida so she is totally, totally ready She categorizes everything. She's got you know okay here are our inventories, she has labels on them and you know she's making sure all the faucets are dripping which thank you was the smartest thing we could have done Oh yeah people should know that

02:19 I had never heard of it and they weren't mentioning that on the news. Oh, I thought you would know it because you lived in Jersey! You know? Never did that in Jersey also never had the pipes freeze because the house was kind of built for it but yeah I'd never...I didn't think about it and man our neighbors got screwed And the worst part, we all have or most of us here have tankless water heaters which work on electricity. And then when this happened either the first night or the second night a lot of people's tankless water heaters that the pipes cracked and blew with the exchange so that you know it's like you're not going to get a plumber there's no spare parts to be had. Well also the plumbers are

03:01 Stuck in the snow and there's millions of jobs out there for him. Yeah This is the problem we have is we have not been able to leave the house because it's all ice You know, we're on this cul-de-sac In Washington State usually when you have a freeze like this which has been doesn't happen A lot does happen once in awhile and that fact even in the Bay Area I mean I might be wrong about this but they always the news reports tell you about them keeping the water running Yeah, so also the local news is very very poor. You know when your power's out the thing that you're not going to be able to do is get to television. Most of the streaming was down... Do you have one those radios with a hand crank? I do actually but I didn't use that. I used my Kenwood, you know the ham radio which has great AM and FM

CHAPTER 02 / 47 Discussion

Local Media Failures, Texas Energy Grid and Nuclear Outages

Local media coverage during the Texas freeze is criticized, with KLBJ cited as the only reliable source of information while NPR and local officials remained silent. Reports indicate that one of the state's two nuclear reactors went down due to a false signal, removing three gigawatts from the grid. Political figures including Governor Greg Abbott and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez are accused of using the crisis to push conflicting agendas regarding the Green New Deal and fossil fuels.

klbj· npr· ercot· nuclear reactor· greg abbott· aoc

03:54 And so I went looking around for some information. Local NPR? Those people, that should be shut down that station! We're in the middle of this, the first morning everyone's waking up. You know cold house and confusion and NPR is just doing I'm Terry Gross you know where's the local news? No one had anything except for one KLBJ They're the only guys... And i was getting better information from Todd & Don in the morning than from anything else The mayor was MIA, the governor was MIA. It was a total clusterfuck We saw the mayor a lot here Our mayor? What was he saying because we didn't see much of it Whatever it was, he was wrong! Well I mean so here's the problem Go ahead Yeah I do have some clips but

04:50 The way they played your mayor, well not your I'm sorry was your governor. They had the governor on all the time Yeah and whatever the governor said was wrong he was wrong He's a liar Well here's the cool thing because of this and because of our producers And you know what? I'm always amazed by that the types of people who produce this show we have We haven't multiple people, but one dude named Ben. He's actually the I think he's the protector of the megawatts. He works in on a trading desk for Texas Energy and from him and from other producers even Dogpatch was even said he has some knowledge of how these things work and atomic rod atoms You know there's not a lot of report But we have two nuclear reactors and one went down as well

05:42 which added to all the problems and that does I think that's about three gig. Yeah, well they got a false signal They got a false signal and that in atomic rod wrote a pretty good blog post about how that shouldn't have happened They should not have shut it down but But I'd love to explain you what I think is going on because everyone's wrong our governor's full of crap AOC is also full of crap. Everyone's full of crap, very few people who... Does the AOC live down there? She was saying she was out there tweeting because you don't embrace the Green New Deal is why this is happening in Texas let me say and immediately we start immediately started seeing the pictures of the giant windmill with a helicopter trying to de-ice the blades

06:29 Uh, yeah. Okay? But let me just talk a little bit about the experience and then we can get into how it happened because I have documented this and it's pretty interesting And I would say it's on the level of the pipelines episode We once did It's that level uh...of chicanery thats going on Um So anyway Everyone is stuck here We cant get out because everythings ice There are no snow plows No one could do any of that We had icing rain, just the worst possible conditions. And what really happened with our grid is that they just totally ran out because of a lack of responsibility for any of this on any party so it really came down to neighbors helping each other big props

CHAPTER 03 / 47 Discussion

Community Mutual Aid, Technological Dependency and Gas Stoves

Community organizers used Telegram groups to coordinate food drop-offs and wellness checks for residents stranded in hotels and homes without power. Observations on modern technological dependency highlight that many residents did not realize gas stoves could be lit manually with a match during a power outage. Technical details regarding thermopiles in gas fireplaces explain how heat-generated current allows some appliances to function without external electricity.

07:24 Barron Scott, who you know he organizes the meetups and this is a good lesson for everybody And he's just an organizer what kind of guy He is and he had everybody from the no agenda Texas Meetup on On a telegram group and he was calling out to people they were organizing Pick-ups and food drop offs. One of our producers was stuck in a hotel You know it's from San Antonio and he had no power and no food No anything said You know, these meetup groups can be more important than you think. They are kind of your friends in the crisis So here's the things I learned Most people are so technologically spoiled that they do not know you can actually light a gas stove without electricity! I had to demonstrate this...I had to talk to several people about this

08:25 You know, because when you turn on the gas you turn the knob and it goes click-click-click and it lights. Most modern stoves have a piezoelectric element which is powered by electricity in it Click-click clicks and then next thing you know you have uh... It lights up Right And this is what people But majority of stoves still have pilot lights No no but your missing the entire point People were not making the connection between turning on the gas with the knob and holding a match to it that they would be able To light their stove my neighbor went for 15 hours outside on his barbecue grill Because he didn't put two and two together because people are so They're, so pampered with technology. Well that's pathetic It's I'm just identifying it as rampant. It was very interesting

09:17 I myself learned about thermopile. This was news to me, because when when i woke up in the morning and everything was like okay let me see if i can get the gas on and our gas is a switch on the wall or fireplace as a switch on the wall well that's gonna suck It's how can I, because you know we have there is a pilot light there but this gas flow control is done electrically. And I'm like holy shit how am I going to do this? Is there way to do it manually and so just on a Lark I flip the switch and it goes on Like, how does this work? This is sorcery! What's going on in this house?! So the way it works is you have these thermopoles which are little copper windings on a circuit board and it can generate a small current from heat. It's usually used for temperature sensors and they're routing that through that switch and its just enough to open the gas flow

CHAPTER 04 / 47 Discussion

Ham Radio Limitations, Emergency Charging and Section 8 Power

Ham radio operators are criticized for a lack of coordination and useful information during the peak of the emergency. The "No Agenda" ham network was unavailable due to its reliance on the internet backbone. Residents utilized car chargers and seat warmers for warmth and power, noting that electricity was restored faster in "Opportunity Zones" containing Section 8 housing compared to wealthier neighborhoods.

10:19 Sounds dangerous was wizardry to me man. I loved it anyway So the hand bands complete disappointment They're not going to save anyone when the apocalypse comes either what the ham bands? The hands and band hams hams ham radio operators the hammer Ham, yes a hamster supposed of taking care of this problem I tuned in to all the repeaters. John, i'm not kidding! The first repeater I get into is like... There was nothing there was no coordination. You know like oh yeah you got power? No I don't have any power okay how about you? I got some power how's my mic sound sounds good? Completely worthless! I almost want to send my license back

11:10 It was horrible. Horrible! Now we also couldn't use the, and here is a fatal flaw of course... We couldn't use the No Agenda ham network because that runs on the internet through you know backbone I probably could have gotten something up on a dongle but I was less just not worried about that so we learned how to charge everything in the car sit in the car and while we're charging, and do a lot of stuff in the car which is also a lot warmer with the seat warmers. And I would say that for us it's been pretty good neighborhood but you know this horror stories are everywhere! We got power last night has been on all the time so far which is because we are in the opportunity zone where section 8 housing is. Oh so another words

CHAPTER 05 / 47 Discussion

Rolling Blackouts, Socioeconomic Disparity and Media Reporting

The implementation of rolling blackouts in Austin appeared to prioritize wealthy areas like Tarrytown while poorer neighborhoods remained dark for 48 hours. Reports surfaced of residents in gas-free apartments seeking wood to burn for heat, leading to dangerous instances of carbon monoxide poisoning and freezing deaths in vehicles. National media coverage from ABC News is reviewed, focusing on the humanitarian crisis and the 15-mile traffic jams in Arkansas.

12:02 You're in that's interesting. Oh, yeah I don't know what to say to that they said so you had it So there still people with this never gotten their power back because they're in a ritzy or area Well, let me tell you the sequence because there was a lot of consternation about it So when when they decided they had to start to go to rolling blackouts where we heard that before? Rolling blackouts They attempted to do it But they attempted it with the poor neighborhoods first. So our friends in Tarrytown, Joe Rogan... They never lost power but so they wanted to rotate it you know there's also smaller sections probably and I'm just saying this is what it looked like and they couldn't roll that over because once they did it they I think they've tried out to get our power on briefly two hours after it went out Sunday night

12:56 And that failed and then it was just out for 48 hours. And that made all of the East Side, so they... I think they decided hey why don't we do the poor fuckers first because you know eh they don't care if they complain and what would you do? You don't want Joe Rogan complaining! That would be no good So they turned us off first and then just now Gene, Sir Gene doesn't live too far from here And he lives in a single, like in kind of a compound with single-family homes. Uh uh! No. Now we're in the midst of all these apartments many of them section 8 and were just kind of in this little sliver that just got turned on again but it was turned off for 48 hours I mean there were people from the apartments coming up to our place looking for wood to burn

13:51 Because there's no gas in those apartments. It was pretty messed up And then you get all the reports of people doing stupid stuff that they just don't know There was so little as typical, it would be smart to say hey please don't burn charcoal in your home You could die is a lot of that A lot of people taking stupid chances and you know there's people who froze to death in their cars. And then by now, I'm looking for different kinds of information because the news is just all the same crap and it always ends with a guy out... Instead of stay safe now it's a stay warm! Thanks for the report Adam, stay warm

14:37 Stay warm. Yeah, it's like layers. John, I'm out here in downtown Austin and as you can see over on the east side is completely dark but over here on the west side is downtown we got plenty of light people seem to be in a good mood John Hey well very good Adam thanks for your report stay warm Everywhere stay warm People on Twitter Let's listen to the ABC rundown of this I have three clips and it's got some stupid crap in there that i just couldn't take. I couldn't take it! Okay

Texas Humanitarian Crisis, Water Boiling and Food Spoilage

Texas residents faced a secondary crisis of water shortages, necessitating boil-water notices in Houston and Austin despite many lacking the power to boil anything. Families queued for hours for firewood and propane in freezing rain as grocery supplies dwindled. A critique of media reports notes that many residents failed to realize they could use the outdoor snow to keep refrigerated food from spoiling during the blackout.

15:17 Storm Texas, storm Texas ABC. Major storm now bearing down from the south right up into the northeast tomorrow snow ice freezing rain dangerous conditions and this storm has already slammed Texas yet again another night there with millions without power without heat without water and authorities acknowledging they do not know when the power will be back on grocery stores with empty shelves today, bottled water sold out. At least 30 people have now died in this week's storms alone and this new one now hitting tonight The image is again this evening This 15 mile traffic jam near Hazen Arkansas multiple accidents in the snow on an icy interstate 40 Freezing rain in Austin Texas adding a coat of ice to the snow A car out of control sliding down an icy hill

16:04 Millions without power, families left to wear multiple layers and huddle with one another just to get through these nights. This neighborhood in the dark in Houston frozen pipes bursting inside homes and one image seen in so many places today this one right here icicles hanging from a fan at Dallas apartment building A long line for propane tanks in Houston today, people waiting in freezing rain. Also waiting in line for hours for groceries these images from Austin Texas tonight some families showing up at what they're calling warming centers this one opened 24 hours a day and Richardson Texas that's outside Dallas And of course the impact on vaccinations across this country. At least 34 states are delaying vaccinations and in Texas tonight authorities are now facing tough questions about the power grid there, and the Texas governor and what he's now blaming for the outages critics say that's just not true we have it all covered beginning with ABC's Marcus Warr leading us off from Dallas tonight yeah this is fantastic! This is the best political football

17:05 and everybody's full of crap. And I don't think they even know what's going on, and the governor? He should go for this. It's complete stupidity But then let's put in sorry clip to all right to this kept going Oh goodness tonight with the nation focused on the next winter storm The humanitarian crisis in Texas is only worsening pipes bursting in Austin water cascading out of buildings and icy roads sending vehicles sliding down the street In Houston, authorities responding to more calls for possible carbon monoxide poisoning. Freezing rain and no power making travel dangerous in darkened neighborhoods some people are even sleeping in their cars broken pipes causing ceilings to cave-in This is a very bad situation A one two punch here with this second ice storm By midday significantly more customers in Texas without power as there were during Hurricane Harvey

18:01 Houston, America's fourth largest city is telling residents to boil water if they even have any. How can we boil water? We don't even have power! Our team met Alexandra Quinonez in line to buy firewood. We got three kids at home, four, six and nine. We're trying to keep the babies warm And in Galveston... It's crowded on with the water oil but there's not anymore Many without power and water Everything in their refrigerator now has gone bad It's true, John. Every single thing you hear and the pipes breaking? I mean we have to boil water too now Yeah so here is the thing that bugs me Yeah please Was the last little thing this woman said because as you see We've had situations in Washington where you have a lot of snow Sure

18:42 How is everything in the refrigerator ruined? Why don't you take it outside and put it in the snow. It's the same technical misunderstanding, and I would say we have an education problem as this as the gas stove. Is the same problem And also... Your area was 18 if actually took stuff out of the refrigerator and put it outside it would freeze it! Well everyone had their stuff outside except this lady which I guess they did to embarrass Texas But again, there's a lot of technology. Well one thing I'll mention in that same regard you know you can eat... You know you can take like a glass of fresh snow and it melts and that's water? Yeah people are doing that. Okay well it's good but they're not reporting it let's go to the last of this stuff. Everything in their refrigerator now has gone bad and supplies are dwindling

ERCOT Management, Energy Deregulation and Bill Gates Interview

The Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) faces intense scrutiny and calls for leadership resignations following the grid failure. While Governor Abbott blamed frozen wind turbines, reports suggest the primary failure was a lack of winterization for natural gas and oil pipelines. Bill Gates appeared on 60 Minutes to defend clean energy, arguing that the Texas crisis highlights the need for better transmission and weather-independent sources like nuclear power.

19:40 And most people out here, the biggest deal is water. People have made some life and death choices back in Houston. The lights going dark during an interview with Mayor Sylvester Turner. We've been talking about power being restored now in real time you have seen power being turned off the state's energy production and independence has always been a point of pride And as the crisis persists, the governor placing blame squarely on officials at ERCOT. The private company that runs about 90% of the state's grid. ERCOT stands for Electric Reliability Council of Texas and they showed that they were not reliable Do you think ERCOT leadership needs to resign? Yes

20:21 Governor Abbott facing criticism for appearing to play some of the blame for the outages on frozen wind turbines. Our wind and our solar got shut down, and they were collectively more than 10% of our power grid And that thrust Texas into a situation where it was lacking power in a statewide basis But Abbott's own energy department reports most of the state's energy losses come from failures to winterize systems, including oil and natural gas pipelines. And now at least two federal agencies are investigating why the system failed so badly." Oh cool because we're gonna tell them I'd heard of ERCOT do you remember? I went to see those Bitcoin guys up a little bit north of here in Texas who were on the exchange point in fact right near where ERCOT operates only ERCOT's office is somewhere else

21:12 And I didn't know really what the hell was going on, but I remember the guy saying, oh, how are you getting all this power here? How can you sit right at this grid? where, you know it's a perfect place to be for Bitcoin mining. He said oh we hired this guy who is an insider with Urqot and so that's the only way and if they... The stories he told me is there such a weird group that they at one point thought they were gonna have to leave and they were actually packing up machines then everything changed and So I already knew something was fishy with this Urqot who are, you know there's blame all over. I like the Green New Deal blame which is very weak i would say it's especially coming from the governor and then this the ERCOT blame I think this is from ABC from this morning but many are now pointing the finger at ERCOT the nonprofit organization which has controlled most of the state's energy since 2002 when Texas

22:11 privatize its electric grid. The governor now calling for an investigation and demanding ERCOT CEO step down. This was a total failure by ERCOT. ERCOT stands for Electric Reliability Council of Texas, and they showed that they were not reliable OK, thank you Governor. Of course we had to bring Bill Gates out to discuss the windmills... Look at Texas! That's my home state where I grew up more than four million customers are without power after this Arctic blast froze wind turbines The Wall Street Journal today argues that this is the risk of trying to banish fossil fuels

22:53 Is what's happening in Texas a sign of the limits of clean energy like wind? Basically, no. enough transmission so that across the country, the wind is blowing somewhere and the sun is shining somewhere. If you have some degree of storage and some sources like nuclear that are not weather dependent we can grow the electricity and maintain reliability. Now it's not going to be easy

23:29 This is one where just looking at the price of solar alone doesn't tell you the challenge that we face. But we can get rid of those hydrocarbons for all our electricity generation and still not freeze to death. Yeah, but in Texas which gets a fair portion of their energy from wind turbines, those wind turbines are frozen And you hear energy officials in the state saying that is part of the problem. So again, I got a lot of help from our producers also atomic rod recommended a book which you can read in about four or five hours it's written by Meredith Angwin A N G W I N she's in The Show Notes It's called

Shorting the Grid, Meredith Angwin and Energy Market Mechanics

Meredith Angwin's book, "Shorting the Grid," is used to explain the fragility of the American electric system and the "Enron-style" chicanery involved in energy trading. During the Texas freeze, the price per megawatt-hour surged from a typical $25 to the regulatory cap of $9,000. ERCOT is described as an air traffic controller for energy that manages a market where participants have little financial incentive to maintain on-site fuel reserves for rare weather events.

meredith angwin· shorting the grid· megawatt hour· scarcity pricing· energy market

24:18 Shorting the grid, the hidden fragility of our electric grid was written several years ago but incredibly timely because I've figured out what's going on and i can at least give a general overview because it could happen in California. It could happen in the East Coast. Could happen in Europe. Could happen anywhere. It happened to...happened here due to the polar vortex and John this is Enron meets Wall Street bets! It's that disgusting when you really see what's happening First thing, windmills. Everyone's talking you know you see the memes well windmills work fine in Norway and over here and everything it was a kind of specific case because of the humidity it was icing and that won't stop anywhere so you don't have those particular conditions. Wind power by the way in Texas is completely valid in my book

25:12 Obviously not for these conditions, but man how long have we been... We used to praise T. Boone Pickens for what he did with the wind farms. He had this whole wind farm. The biggest I think didn't he? I don't know. T. Boone Pickens was always the natural gas guy Oh now you went into all the windmills Anyway Yeah they're mostly They work. He was in advertisements all over the West Coast, but he was always promoting natural gas So there was a chain reaction those went down We already had the polar vortex coming we knew days ahead of time it was going to go down to seven seven degrees and What you'll hear the news saying is natural gas fired plants had supply problems This is bullcrap

26:06 And this is something that I think, I haven't seen discussed. The gas providers have their own rules and regulations and their rule is it goes towards residential and heating above and beyond anything else including gas fired plants So what has Austin done very successfully for their own carbon initiatives, they have shut down decommissioned or in some cases outright forbidden dual plants that can do oil and natural gas, where they could store some of the oil. The natural gas generators don't store that much natural gas on site so that's why you hear all your supply issues no it didn't freeze you know this is all kinds of misinformation they literally were not getting it because they were sending it to people to warm their homes

27:03 Coal plants, same thing. It's all kind of been shut down and it's great you know virtue signal we get green energy blah blah blah then we had the nuclear plant that got the false signal it shut down but here is the biggest problem that happened and this where I'd like to introduce ERCOT, the price per megawatt hour of energy which is typically $25 to maybe a peak sometime in the summer of 80 dollars per megawatt hour. Do you know what the prices is at this very moment still John? I don't know... Nine thousand dollars

27:41 $9,000 high and that's the cap. There's a regulatory cap that the energy price cannot go above nine thousand dollars per megawatt hour and interestingly ERCOT got permission to pass that on to the customers So there's little incentive with these guys to do much about it and if the... Let me introduce ERCOT, then I'll tell you where the problem lies. ERCOT provides a central place where generation is dispatched out onto the grid and where generation and load are balanced at all times ERCOT is similar to an air traffic controller. It doesn't own the airplanes or the runways, but it steps back and makes sure everything is flowing properly and efficiently. ERCOT doesn't own the assets –it doesn't make electricity–but it monitors all of the moving parts that keep electricity flowing…and keeps the markets that provide electricity to Texans running!

28:36 There are a number of participants in ERCOT's market that make electricity work in Texas, starting from your home. Your home receives electricity from a distribution company The distribution company receives electricity from the transmission system which is what ERCOT is managing in its control room. ERCOT has prepared for the future into primary ways One to make sure it people systems and market participants have the right rules to manage a changing system Two, from a technological perspective the grid operator has to be very sophisticated in order to manage the future of the electric grid. The best thing about ERCOT is the people committed to the mission of making sure electric power will always get to the people of Texas

CHAPTER 09 / 47 Discussion

Energy Deregulation History, Rick Perry and Fuel Bias

The 1996 energy deregulation led to the creation of Regional Transmission Organizations (RTOs) that operate as "black boxes" forbidding press attendance. Former Energy Secretary Rick Perry was reportedly pushed out for advocating for "winter resilience" and mentioning coal, which violated RTO rules against naming specific fuels or showing bias. The system is criticized for allowing subsidies to distort the true cost of wind and solar versus fossil fuels.

deregulation· rick perry· regional transmission organization· coal· subsidies

29:22 ERCOT. Your power, our promise. Yeah it's always nasty how those types of PR things don't age very well so this is a an RTO a regional transmission organization and you're probably gonna be able to help me with some of this John in 1996 is when energy deregulation came in And that's when a number of regions were created, certainly not all states. I think really only maybe 18 states in total but California has an RTO Regional Transmission Organization Texas has it and we have it over our own grid and then there are several in New England, there is couple other ones

30:04 And the idea was that this deregulation would create a market that would drive prices down because there were all these different ways of creating energy. And the regional transmission organizations are there to really do one thing and that is to accept or deny bids every five minutes with the cost of energy and then switch that so you've got the Power generators, you have people who are using natural gas guys who were doing coal what's left of them? It was actually quite a few but You got the solar. You got the wind power all of those offer up their there megawatt per hour price into this system in their bidding and

30:54 The way the clearing price or whatever price is taken, is a complete black box. These regional transmission organizations often have laws that specifically forbid the press from attending their meetings. There's all kinds of jerk-offs on the boards of these companies it's really like backroom dark alley type stuff and they have one cardinal rule which is you are never allowed to name the fuel. And this is, as I discovered what got Rick Perry fired remember he was our energy secretary and then he decided he needed to go and uh... be a good buddy

31:37 He had to go and spend time with his family. That's because in 2018, I think when he was still energy secretary, he made a public statement and said we need to make Texas winter resilient – that's the term winter resilient which is an energy term meaning typically you have oil reserves 90 days or coal or something because other stuff will stop and won't flow Yes, Rick Perry got pushed out because he was telling the truth. Yes! But the problem was not that he was telling the truth The problem was that he specifically mentioned Cole and the N-word

32:17 So, and you can never mention that because according to the regional transmission organizations you can't have a bias because everybody knows at the exchange itself. You can't have a bias over what kind of power that is everybody knows that the guys over at the solar farm and the windmill farm they get subsidies so their actual cost is lower You know, oil and gas has certain subsidies. Nuclear has... There's all kinds of things that go into this price but what's amazing is this auction And this is where the next ERCOT boasting video comes in.

Enron Tactics, Hedge Funds and Public Utility Privatization

The Texas energy market is compared to a stock exchange where hedge funds and traders flip energy contracts multiple times in minutes to maximize profit. Allegations are made that the Enron model of "scheduling outages" to create false scarcity has permeated the entire U.S. grid. Critics argue that privatization of public utilities has failed, as middlemen prioritize financial rewards over the physical stability of the power supply.

33:13 ERCOT is like the stock exchange, making sure that transactions are handled accurately and efficiently. And that the right technology is available to keep those transactions flowing smoothly. ERCOT also provides financial and accounting services to the wholesale market under a set of market rules so the grid can work effectively and efficiently. ERCOT your power our promise. So it is not Like the stock market, it is exactly that with all the same players. There's an entire secondary market which no one talks about because if you go in and look at the auction bids these every five minutes there's not 10 power generating companies yeah they're in there

33:56 But there's maybe 200 parties in their bidding and these are guys who are shorting, hedging hedge funds. Actual hedge funds are in this game. You could be getting energy that has been traded five times in five minutes to make more profit before it gets to you So this is completely... I'll bet you there's a lot of Enron people involved. And to make it worse, in my possession documentation which i can't give up because of course it was given to me confidentially that they do the same trick scheduling an outage can increase our profits when done properly That's what Enron did They were shutting down power generation to create false scarcity That's part of their business model

34:49 a part of the business model. So it's exactly that, Enron Wall Street bets and what happened is no one has responsibility you can't blame traders who are in there they're just trading to make a buck No no no now you can't blame them You can't blame ERCOT They're just doing what they do Just getting the best price Best Price No one had an incentive because of the financial, lack of financial rewards for having fuel on site. That's it! And these guys were loving the price because as the cold started to come in they were like oh fuck this is great think about the price there and what percentage increases that from $25 to nine thousand dollars? They were crushing it they were killing it until

35:41 Started stuff started to trip offline now what I didn't really realize about the energy grid is it has to be in total balance The demand matches the supply at all times. Otherwise, you can fry the grid or do all kind? I mean it's That's some... it's probably quite simple in general, but that's why they have to shut stuff down or bring stuff online. And you know literally when I flip on a switch somewhere that's getting generated and this little trickle of extra energy is coming out But we got completely hosed by a clearinghouse not dissimilar to Wall Street's DTSC, DTCC whatever it is their central clearing house. People are trading futures you're buying oil or gas powered energy that someone bought five years ago

36:39 So there's no way to have any oversight. This is literally like NASDAQ! No one gives a shit what happens downstream. Why would they? Well, because... No sweat off my balls is the old saying The way I see it we need Enron level hearings Because it's the same thing. We need Enron level hearings because it's sanctioned You have to assume this is and the Enron Models have permeated the entire country once in what Ron was broken up? Yeah, all those guys scattered I actually know one of them In fact, I have some enron golf balls You got to put those on Etsy. I'm thinking about it

37:28 and they scattered around the country with these ideas. It's almost like a cancer, and as you outlined it's great! You know you implement these ideas all over the place that is just fabulous so a lot of it has to do with privatization and the bogus little middlemen that are put into the system to make privatization work. A lot of these, it's pretty obvious to people or not everybody but a lot of people that privatization in public utilities is really not a great idea. Now well in reading this book

CHAPTER 11 / 47 Discussion

Global Cooling, Bill Clinton and Scarcity Pricing Signals

The 1996 deregulation under President Bill Clinton is identified as the origin of current grid vulnerabilities. Real-time data from the ERCOT app showed energy bids exceeding legal limits, suggesting power was withheld until prices hit the $9,000 cap. The discussion posits that a shift toward "global cooling" caught officials off guard because they were ideologically committed to global warming narratives.

bill clinton· global cooling· scarcity pricing· aoc· ercot app

38:16 It's you really have the power grid and then the policy grid. And the idea you get about deregulation, what happened in 96 is kind of Orwellian So deregulation in fact meant tons of regulations, tons of all kinds of rules and advantages for this guy that guy. That's all the politicians are all a part of this it's not just the governor it's just not just the legislature It's all the greedy fucks is the whole system and they got caught with their pants down Because they believe global warming is happening and not global cooling. That's pretty much it This this is only because of this this this freeze that no one expected. This is Bill Clinton Oh, yeah he was president when a deregulated right?

39:08 Yeah, he was the most Republican of all the Democrat presidents in history. He could do things... This is the old switcheroo. This is like how only Nixon could have opened China There are Democrats can do things that Republicans would love to do, but they can't. But the Democrats can and the same vice versa. The Republicans could do things that the Democrats would love to do, but they can't right because people point a finger at him. And so you have this situation with Clinton who is just used every Republican idea in the book and they always accuse them of being exploitative. He's just doing it to exploit did the voter or no he was doing it sincerely

39:54 That's the problem. I'm looking at the current prices, it split up between Northwest South Texas and Houston and here is a fun game anyone can play at home you can get the ERCOT app and download it or use it or just go to their website so right now the south is that the current price now it'll settle for $9000 but the bid price is $9004.47 which is above above the legal limit. So, the South is not... nothing's happening it stuck we got Houston now it's 89-90 so I guarantee you that now some powers coming online and the same for the North

40:38 South is where we are. Nothing else is going to come online until that price goes down you can follow it to the T It's disgusting they won't bring it online because they can't make money on it and here Here's this ERCOT thing that came out there was approved by the state as noted This order requires ERCOT to quote ensure that firm load That is being shed in this EEA 3 which is the crisis is accounted for in ERCOT's scarcity pricing signals. This directive is based on the Commission's observation, in the order that energy prices of less than $9000 per MWh during load shed conditions are quote inconsistent with the fundamental design of the ERCOT market." I mean it's about money they're not spinning up power until the money goes down and they're bidding outside the band so they won't get chosen or they'll get chosen at the top-top-top price

41:36 People are suffering because of this and the news media is not informing people of what's happening. They'll never know, instead we're all like, AOC sucks! Green New Deal! Republicans suck! Deregulation! Privatizing! Not your best voice... I haven't had any television which has been pretty damn nice My goodness, didn't miss it at all. Anyway this electric problem I think that's going to pop up all over the world and we know in the Netherlands new homes are no longer being built with gas boy hope nothing happens to you up there. I love that by the way! Yeah hope nothing happens to you up there like happened here you know in the global cooling that's taking place

CHAPTER 12 / 47 Discussion

Norway Electric Vehicle Grid Strain, Single Point of Failure

Norway's high adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) has led to government requests for citizens to avoid charging during peak weather loads to prevent grid collapse. This dependency on a single point of failure—the electrical grid—is criticized as a strategic error. The removal of natural gas and coal from the energy mix is seen as a move toward a more fragile infrastructure that cannot handle extreme cold.

norway· electric vehicles· power grid· fossil fuels· rolling blackouts

42:27 I did have to make a correction. See people pointed out that Washington State has plenty of natural gas and soot except on the Olympic Peninsula where they did ban it, discourage its use. Okay in Norway just to give an example Electric cars, electric vehicles very popular. This is from Lawrence one of our producers because they're not subject to the 60 to 90% import tax of traditional combustion engine cars and I don't think that's unfair. I don't think they make any well there this is how it gets pushed so 10 percent of all

43:08 It's a 280,000 of all 2.8 registered vehicles in Norway are 100% EV So now the government is saying you know the grid is getting a little overloaded We'd really like people Not to be charging your cars overnight You know you can only do it on this certain day Don't charge it in the morning due to the weather load on the electricity network Do you see where this is headed? Do you see the problem with the dependency man? I where's my backyard nuke if everything is all gonna be electricity instead of a combination of ingredients which includes gasoline and coal and Fossil fuel, which is cold too. But it didn't over form If you're just gonna have everything having to funnel through the ones one

44:09 point of, you know that one single point of failure the electrical grid. It's dumb what would be the point? it says crazy yeah so this is long from over I think they've already said that over the next few weeks they will have to do rolling blackouts to bring everything back up because obviously depends a lot on the weather but now we're seeing the crummy plumbing which is not at all thought about, you know for... and it's I'm sad because we've known in general whenever the government officials say right we pretty much look left and say that's probably the best solution. For some reason it turns out that way most of the time We have talked about global cooling versus global warming forever on this show

CHAPTER 13 / 47 Discussion

Climate Change Bromides, Solar Minimum and 1970s Global Cooling

The current freeze is framed as the start of a "solar minimum" or mini ice age, contrasting with BBC reports claiming snowy winters are becoming a thing of the past. A 1978 television special hosted by Leonard Nimoy is referenced, which warned of a coming ice age following the brutal 1977 winter in Buffalo. The narrative suggests that climate scientists switched from cooling to warming theories in the 1980s to secure funding and carbon credit markets.

solar minimum· leonard nimoy· ice age· buffalo· climate change

45:05 And yet, still the BBC still has the audacity to post December... just at the end of December. Snowy winters could become a thing of the past as climate change affects the UK children will never... How many times are they going to come up with this bromide? They keep doing it and right now in the UK blanketed You know, if someone had been honest or whatever the hell is going on about this global warming bullcrap and it said you know really we're in the

45:45 the start of the solar minimum or the, what is this? The Marauder Minimum Ice Age. What is it called? What's the exact term? Yeah I don't have in front of me and print that out but yes there was a 350-400 year cycle where the sun kind of cools down right just a bit but it cools down just enough to trigger an ice age many of mini ice age and that's been ongoing it started and they think it was supposed to start in 2013 or sometime recent. It's ongoing, we're actually... We're in it! We're in it? Yeah And I think your example there in Texas is a good point at proving it but

46:26 And I just read what I was reading about this and I had to say maybe it was, you know they were such a rush. Rush, rush, rush. They kept promoting the global warmest kept promoting oh we've got only so long we gotta do now there's a tipping point at tipping point all tomorrow is that tomorrow it's gonna be the last chance we have and there was this rushed him to promote this idea yes shows up yeah man Texas is the tipping point And Trump shows up and he puts it off, and he takes this out of the Paris Climate Agreement. He says this is bullcrap! It throws the whole calendar off by four years. No wonder they hate him. I don't know if they can recover? This is interesting... Back in 1970- okay, this is a great timeline

47:16 because they got confused. Some of the same people who are yelling global warming, climate change back in 1978 I picked the clip up we've played it before it's only a minute 20 everybody was convinced that we would witness global cooling and mini ice age In fact Dr Spock Leonard Nimoy did an entire special in 1978 here is a minute 24 In 1977, the worst winter in a century struck the United States. Arctic cold ripped the Midwest for weeks on end. Great blizzards paralyzed cities of the Northeast. One desperate night in Buffalo eight people froze to death in maroon cars. Pat Bushnell was on the road that night

48:09 Traffic just absolutely stopped. I was afraid of being stuck in the car all night long with the cold and the wind running out of gas, and then what? I think that if we had to go through a real bad winter just like we just went through...I think we'd have to think about moving someplace else Move where? The brutal Buffalo winter might become common all over the United States. Climate experts believe the next ice age is on its way, according to recent evidence it could come sooner than anyone had expected At weather stations in the far north temperatures have been dropping for 30 years Seacoast long free of summer ice are now blocked year round

49:00 According to some climatologists, within a lifetime we might be living in the next ice age. Alright so that's right by the way it is by the way it's mr. Spock not dr. Spock that was the PD oh my goodness what a faux pas I'm sorry yes status Spock thank you for that thank you for that correction Spock so how about this try this on precise? So he said, you know the evidence and Then it didn't happen stuff started to warm up and these people were confused because they knew that they could make a ton off of something Just by saying the weather's dangerous And then start to warm up when they said oh crap. Let's switch Mr. Spock no good bring in Al Gore will call it global warming show some polar bears now

CHAPTER 14 / 47 Discussion

Carbon Credits, John Holdren and the CO2 Narrative

The transition from "global cooling" to "global warming" is described as a financial maneuver to establish carbon credits and new valuation systems. John Holdren, an advisor in the Obama administration, is cited as a figure who previously promoted cooling theories before pivoting to warming. The term "carbon pollution" is criticized as a linguistic shift away from the scientific reality of CO2.

al gore· carbon credits· john holdren· co2· polar vortex

49:53 do all that. Which they're more polar bears than ever, by the way. Yep and he you know in his movie An Inconvenient Truth gave him the Oscar all that stuff and then it starts going going going they're building up their thinking about stuff getting ready they even got now the whole stock market everything to fall apart 2008 so we're ready for carbon credits and a whole new way of valuing stuff And then they noticed the damn polar vortex. I played that one more time because it's Bumper Morgan who passed away in May who made that.

50:35 And they see these polar vortexes getting worse and worse and worse, knowing that the climate... And then they have to come up with stuff like weather's not climate bro. That didn't last that long! They kept promoting it. Weather is not climate bro And then the polar vortex is getting worse. They're like, OK we got to ram this shit through and then you're right Trump came in he stopped the Paris accord everything's broken but they see it coming and this may be the tipping point that can't get them back because it's too hard to claim climate change for this well there's a couple of things that I've noticed besides if and by the way that would account for a lot of the Trump hate makes sense It's all money man

51:24 And I've noted, when we started talking about the switcheroo from climate global freezing to global warming. The list of scientists a lot of them are dead because this was all in the 70s and there were hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of articles front page stories in the Newsweek and elsewhere about the coming ice age A lot of the guys switched over to global warming because there was more money in it, but just there was a few and a lot of them died. But there were a few laggards that still maintain the global cooling argument and I'm gonna try to find one or two of them if they're still alive and chat up, chat it up with him or have them guide me to some new literature. Wasn't one of them came back in Obama's administration? Holdren. The cooler? Holdren yeah! Holdren was the cooler

52:17 Doctor... and yeah, Holdren. Holdren Obama Science Advisor Yeah that guy was old here John Paul Holdren yeah he's from 1944 I think he was the guy who was all in on global cooling and then came back in with Obama as a global warming specialist Oh yeah okay well he wouldn't keep what he just didn't switcher because switches it's just one of the guys is there are guys at Supposedly still promote the global cooling thing. Oh, there's just a few of them left You want to find the good guys now? Good luck with that Well the guys are dead stayed this stayed the course not the ones who switched over to the mysterious co2 magic carbon Carbon pollution urban magic baby. Yeah, we went from co2 to plain old carbon pollution exactly

CHAPTER 15 / 47 Discussion

Doctored Evidence, Institutional Corruption and Bill Gates

A wide-ranging critique of institutional corruption covers the Sackler family's role in the opioid crisis, the "doctored evidence" of the White Helmets in Syria, and the influence of China on the NBA and Apple. Bill Gates is singled out for his promotion of processed meats and his frequent media appearances. The rise of independent commentators like Tim Pool is attributed to a general loss of faith in the medical community, central banks, and mainstream media.

white helmets· sackler family· bill gates· tim pool· pharmaceutical industry

53:10 You I'm sorry you got a good little cold snap there. No, it's okay It's fascinating but it fits in with with what is taking place in front of our very eyes And you did that? You had a great rant on on the last show one of our producers made an end to show mix I think you like which is all this well, you call it doctored evidence The doctored evidence clip. Yeah. Oh now I want to play that it's 1 minute Do you mind its you so you'll like it No problemo. He had Doug Longenecker did it Wait, wait, wait. That's not enough. Smirking... She's got that big grin! You are bloodthirsty for ratings This is the whole thing is doctored evidence It's like everything we get is nothing but doctored evidence Due with COVID Phony hospitalizations Doctored Evidence Phoney Doctored Evidence

54:14 And the very fine people host Doctored Evidence. Bullcrap! The media's all in on the whole thing and if you go all the way back... It was absolutely shocking What happened to that FBI lawyer? Doctored Evidence! Shame! If we go all the way back for you, shame! Doctored Evidence It's an anthem man, it's an anthem touch well doctored evidence So let's add the energy markets to our list of stuff. We learned in the past year That is completely messed up and

55:01 corrupt and not in our best interest. I'll just run down the list because i think we should keep it Education, teachers unions, universities. What they're teaching messed up politicians all hooked up to China like Mitch McConnell and Swalwell and then this Pelosi in all these corrupt a-holes we got elitists who are eating out at French laundry We got Cuomo's killing old people who gives a crap the pharmaceutical industry pushing shit down your throat opioids which addict people and they lied about it. Sackler for the second time around did it with Vicodin, the medical community, how about health insurance anybody? That's not a scam just China NBA Apple Nike using slave labor stock market Wall Street bets climate change central banks

55:50 Fiat, white helmets fake news corrupt media Hollywood Silicon Valley big tech big agriculture which is now behind India. That is a World Economic Forum UN 2030 sustainable development goals in process I got a whole thing about it and the show knows there's they're gonna get 250 million farmers goodbye and now Bill Gates tells us to eat processed meat By the way, in my rant about doctored evidence the white helmet is a great example. What a phony deal that was and didn't they win the Nobel Prize or almost did? Prizes I think the documentary won a prize yeah

56:42 Exactly. It's all phony, no wonder 30 year old guys like Tim Pool are popular because they're always guests come on and say hey everything sucks ass government no good this is the wonder that Bill Gates literally selling phony baloney doesn't get any better than that I don't know why they keep Bill Gates getting on my nerves Bill Gates, man. Check this out! You'll like this. He was on 60 Minutes and I have some clips from that if we want to switch to COVID but he also did the 60 minutes overtime which you know because gosh knows that incredibly valuable airtime...we can't waste all of it This is the promo for Bill Gates on 60 minutes overtime

CHAPTER 16 / 47 Discussion

COVID-19 Variants, CDC Guidelines and Pfizer Sponsorship

A 60 Minutes segment on mistrust in science is noted for being sponsored by Pfizer, which is framed as a conflict of interest. Dr. Anthony Fauci and Michael Osterholm are criticized for shifting timelines on a return to "normality" into 2022. Meanwhile, the CDC is tracking more transmissible variants from the UK and South Africa, and federal authorities have seized 10 million counterfeit 3M N95 masks.

57:36 Bill Gates advice on how to combat mistrust in science at 60minutesovertime.com sponsored by Pfizer. Can it get any fucking crazier? Just putting it right out there, sponsored by Pfizer! Come on, come on that's not okay Yeah I'd like to switch the COVID, but I got a few COVID clips People need to know because they're not letting up. In fact, just play this clip. This will give you a good example Mary Bruce 2022 clip

58:13 Okay. And on the big question, when will life get back to normal? The administration and top health experts had said by fall but now... By next Christmas I think we'll be in a very different circumstance God willing than we are today Dr Fauci now predicts some quote degree of normality by the beginning of 2022 I want to thank the clip Crusader, Clip Custodian. I'm sorry Neil Jones He sent me some really good clips about this You know the guy who I think now knows what's or he somehow setting the tone But no one can repeat his message is this this douche Osterholm This guy is I mean he might just give him a sickle and and a hood

59:07 When this guy comes along, you're about to die. And then he's in charge now. So now we have the CDC guidelines, which no one seems to be able to communicate properly. The CDC says hey teachers go back to work Joe Biden Kamala Harris president vice president they're like uh no this should be prioritized yeah they should kind of get vaccines first because they're still in the middle of negotiating with the teacher unions it's so pathetically transparent but this is what Ulster Home really wants Play douche. Start Michael with that 91% in the red zones nobody wants that red color Do you think these CDC guidelines are enough? I think they are enough particularly if you're looking at children from K to 8th grade there We do see very little transmission between students or between students and teachers when you get into the high school age That's a bit of a different issue, but there really is a real Red Flag coming down the road I think and that is

1:00:08 is Rosemary Fry, a researcher who goes through all the paperwork that had this variant thing all kicked into high gear. Tonight the CDC now warning those new more contagious variants spreading across the US could easily cause another surge in COVID cases I know these variants are concerning and talking about them today because i am concerned too

1:00:50 They believe the UK variant will be the dominant strain and soon it is more transmissible, and new UK data showing it's likely more deadly. Tonight the CDC is also tracking the South African variant now found in at least nine states and Washington DC A new CDC report now shows the South African variant caused a 16-fold increase in cases in one month, in Zambia. There is concern over what could happen here in the U.S., and when it comes to masks tonight federal authorities have revealed they seized close to 10 million counterfeit 3M N95 masks in recent weeks. Hundreds of thousands in fake masks found at a warehouse in Western Maryland

CHAPTER 17 / 47 Discussion

Rosemary Fry, Lab-Based Virus Studies and Mouse Models

Researcher Rosemary Fry challenges the scientific consensus on COVID-19 variants, arguing that claims of increased transmissibility are based on flawed lab studies rather than field evidence. She asserts that these studies rely on engineered decoy receptors and specific mouse models that do not reflect real-world human interaction. Fry suggests the media sensationalizes these lab findings to drive fear and secure funding.

rosemary fry· sars-cov-2· mouse models· petri dish· transmissibility

1:01:33 The mass there's another story on the mask, but let's listen Let's listen to this woman who was just laughing her ass. She's on me it was on Vimeo You can't get this stuff on YouTube Oh anymore now This is yours are sucking now man that they've anything that's fun is gone There you have a cat playing the piano anymore fuck I'm sorry sorry Rose Fry on COVID variants. So I think a few minutes video about how based in reality and hard facts is the science that's being thrown at us from public health officials about these new variants that are suddenly cropping up and around the world, in England, UK and Brazil?

1:02:17 And that they're telling us now, first they're saying well it's going to spread a lot more quickly. And now they're telling us not only will it spread more quickly but is going to be causing a lot more death and also that before they were saying these new variants are still gonna be fine but the vaccines are gonna deal with them. Now their saying nope! That won't work either their vaccines won't work against them. So I just wanted to take a few minutes and just go through, I've written a long article that goes with this but I wanted to go through some of the science that all these layers upon layers are built on and those studies are primarily on one mutation that's said to be in the novel coronavirus

1:02:57 and that causes it to be more transmissible, to mean more contagious than ever. And there are three main papers that the scientists and public health officials and politicians rely on to tell us that oh its much more transmissible. I've got the three papers in front of me The thing is we have to ask ourselves where were these published? Were they actually reviewed by other scientists to make sure they're accurate before they were published? And also, are they based on human people interacting with the virus or are they based on animal studies like mice with a virus. Or even farther removed just cells from a mouse in a petri dish

1:03:43 And if we look at these three studies, we'll see pretty quickly that they're very far removed unfortunately. Even though the authors say oh they reflect on the real virus in real situations and people So is she saying that these are abnormal variants? She says this is all ginned up in a lab and the papers are And the papers are bogus. They're not bogus, no the papers are real but they're just lab stuff it's like stuff people do when they want to you know get some money or get some attention or do store get published. Have they created a variant?

1:04:22 They, they, we're all here listening to the part. Here she goes for the first two papers you'll get the idea. The first one is titled adaptation of SARS-CoV2 and bulb C mice for testing vaccine efficacy. And what this is, is they took the virus and they put it through a few generations or few cycles of reproducing And then they put it into mice, a special type of mouse. And they said, oh well look there's more binding and therefore there is more binding to cells in this little model that really was divorced from reality and therefore it can be more contagious without actually going through that extra important step of saying well it is more contagious

1:05:05 Yes, they didn't do that. So then let's take the next paper and there are similar problems. This paper is called an engineered decoy receptor for SARS-CoV2 in broadly binds protein S sequence variants. So they're taking an engineered decoy receptor, so something that's not even real in real life. They engineered it to bind to the virus and they're saying oh it binds very well, it binds a lot. So based on that we're supposed to say oh because there is a particular mutation. So they are trying to have us say when we have something with this particular mutation

1:05:46 And they said, buying is more closely. Oh so therefore it's more transmissible So we kind of just have to take their word for it because this is just an engineered court Rick doyle-chore receptor again It's not really showing anything in real life. It's not really using proper antibodies Okay, so if I understand what she's saying Is that they'll find a variant which I like mutant better but okay the fire variant they'll find a mutant and then they'll do some tests and Then based upon those tests with a special mouse They say, well it's more transmissible even though they're not getting that from field evidence just saying it in the lab and that's what they do these people. They do that stuff all day long

CHAPTER 18 / 47 Discussion

Deep Mutational Scanning, Pathogenicity and Scientific Contradictions

An analysis of a paper on "Deep Mutational Scanning" suggests that researchers are overstating the danger of spike protein mutations. One of the paper's authors is quoted from 2020 stating that there was no reason to believe mutations would make the virus more pathogenic. The segment highlights contradictions in scientific literature regarding how tightly the virus binds to ACE2 receptors.

ace2· mutations· pathogenicity· peer review· scientific papers

1:06:29 And then she goes on by this is the third clip. I could have gone into a fourth and fifth clip where she goes after the media for just picking this stuff up because it gets attention and all the rest we all but we already know that. Yeah, so let's listen to the third one which actually has kind of a little gag in there it was kinda funny. We also have a third paper called Deep Mutational Scanning of SARS-CoV2 Receptor Binding Domain reveals constraints unfolding in ACE 2 binding And so again, this is saying that we're taking a receptor binding domain. So that's just part of the virus, little part of the virus they're putting in a peachy dish

1:07:07 and they're doing a whole bunch of steps that actually in this paper are very hard to follow. And they're saying, oh look there's more binding and therefore the virus binds more tightly when it has this mutation and therefore it means its going to spread more widely but it is very interesting I found an article quotation from an article for one of the authors of this paper deep mutational binding and in fact from August last year so just a few months ago Her name is Erlason Greary, and she says well you know the virus as it is the novel coronavirus without any mutations has a binds quite well to this receptor in the cells.

1:07:45 So there's no reason to believe that going beyond that level will make it more pathogenic or transmissible You know and if they can have a bunch of mutations, it won't make any difference. So here is an author one of these papers New papers this is oh, it's good mutations. It's gonna be more transmissible. It's terrible you know It's gonna be just spread like wildfire And yet here she was a few months earlier saying No, it can bear a lot There could be a lot of mutations that won't make any difference She better be posting that on the bit shoot pretty soon, because that ain't gonna last. That's not going to last? Wow! You know Sir Seat Sitter... I'm not quite sure the... He interviewed David Icke Does Sir Seat Sitter have a show that should know about? Probably an idiot

CHAPTER 19 / 47 Discussion

David Icke, Virus Isolation and the Unicorn Analogy

David Icke and Dr. Tom Cowan claim that the SARS-CoV-2 virus has never been properly isolated or purified according to traditional scientific standards. They argue that the viral genome was reconstructed using computer programs from only a few base pairs, comparing the process to claiming a unicorn exists based on finding a single hair and a piece of a hoof. They posit that the existence of the virus is a matter of scientific consensus rather than physical proof.

1:08:30 But everyone has it. Have you noticed everybody that listens to our show has a show? Yeah, these are all sprouting from our loins John from our podcast Loin Sprout something I don't want to imagine And yeah like David Eick the guy does the work he does the research He's said a lot of things over the years that turned out to be true A lot of things still waiting on The Lizard People but i'm kind of down with that We subscribe to the lizard people. Here's Ike on the non-existence of the COVID virus in general You follow this through with all the Freedom of Information Act requests that have been sent out To many and various health authorities in different countries asking a simple question Can you give us

1:09:27 the paper that describes how the virus was isolated and therefore shown to exist in and of itself. And every single one has come back saying we don't have that information. Now, the reason I played this in the next clip is in the context of this what's her name? Dr Rose Frye. I presume she's a doctor. What I know she's a master scientist. She's a researcher, pure research. She reads these papers What Ike states in this clip is the SARS-CoV2 virus itself was created in the same manner as these highly transmissible variant studies were done. There's another doctor in America

1:10:17 who from early on was saying there is no virus. And it's a man called Dr Tom Cowan and he produced a brilliant article a few weeks ago, from a paper published on the CDC website, and it was by 20 virologists. And they were describing the quote isolation purification as it's called and the biological characteristics of this so-called SARS CoV 2 virus and The process by which they came to these conclusions and what they said was that They had only

1:11:00 identified, what they claimed they'd identified 37 base pairs of this alleged virus out of the approximately 30 thousand that they allegedly the genome of an intact virus contains. And what they did – this is all in this paper – is they took the thirty-seven segments of 30 thousand and they put them into a computer program which filled in all the rest And Cowan in this article describes it brilliantly when he says that, it's the equivalent of this. A group of researchers claim they found a unicorn because they found a piece of a hoof, a hair from a tail and a snippet of a horn. They then add that information into a computer and program it to recreate the unicorn

1:11:51 And then they claim this computer recreation is the real unicorn. But of course, they've never actually seen a unicorn so it's not possible that they examined its genetic makeup to compare their samples with the actual unicorns hair hooves and horn. The researchers claim they decided which is the real genome of SARS-CoV2 by consensus sort of like a vote or climate change I think that could be true. That ship, the thing doesn't exist long since sailed. Okay. He sticks to his guns! I like that. Did you know we have names for the mutants in America? Everyone's talking about the...

Homegrown Variants, Bird Names and Bill Gates Booster Shots

CNN reports on seven "homegrown" U.S. variants of the coronavirus, which have been assigned bird names like "Robin" and "Pelican" to avoid geographic shaming. Bill Gates suggests that a third booster shot may be necessary to address these new spike protein shapes. The discussion criticizes this as a move toward perpetual vaccination that is contrary to the normal human experience.

cnn· robin variant· pelican variant· bill gates· booster shots

1:12:35 Maybe they're just numbered. No, baby! I don't know maybe we don't want to get shamed or you know... We want to make sure that because we have the South African variant and we have the UK variant. They wanna circumvent it? Yeah! No, yeah they want to move it out of China. Now what could be funnier than the names they've come up with? CNN will tell us Here's one of the worries right now we talked about the UK variant The South African variant Well there are seven variants believed to be homegrown here in the United States Homegrown What is this homegrown shit brother? Homegrown? Hmmmm Okay Homegrown Yeah I'm just saying Homegrown here in the United States Or Dietrich

1:13:17 They're giving them bird names Robin 1 in 30 states, predominantly the Midwest. Now you can say bird name but when I hear Robin I think Batman! I think it's a joke...I think they threw this in just as a joke Hey man remember that bat story we sold everybody? It was called these variants of Robin. I immediately thought of Robin Leech. Oh yeah my shouting Robin 2 in 20 states, predominantly in the southeast. And then there's a pelican variant that's been discovered in 13 states plus an Australia Denmark Switzerland and India again as the virus mutates that concerns doctors which is why I want to shut the case count down. I think they're doing this to give it a more global feel so you can say the Pelican Virus instead of shaming one country. Nobody's using these terms

1:14:03 These guys are stretching. They are the Chinese news network. Hello? Even CGTN won't go this far! It won't! Oh, it's true. They play kind of straight CNN they're off the rails So there's total seven in America now. This morning growing concerns about variants of the coronavirus The New York Times reports doctors have now found seven variants of the virus that originated in the US Spotlighting the urgent need for better tracking of cases and mutations All these variants had this same exact mutation Now that could just be a coincidence, but some researchers are worried that could this mean

1:14:44 that the virus is getting smarter and adapting. The virus is getting smarter! Here it comes. It's nocturnal, you know stay home Yeah, well we know what this leads to its obvious in South Africa They were people who got infected with the original virus Recovered and then got reinfected With this new variant the South African variant which tells us that prior infection Does not protect you against re-infection at least with this particular variant. Somewhat good news is it looks like the vaccine is better than natural infection in preventing you from getting reinfected with the South African virus." Oh my God!

1:15:30 This is just a lie. Oh, it's not over! It's not over! Bill Gates has his eye on the prize! Do you mean that you would get a booster in addition to your first two shots? Or in your next yearly set of vaccinations you would get a totally new flu shot and influenza shot changes each year Yeah, both of those may be necessary if we can't eradicate it from all humans. If it's still circulating we might need something that takes this new shape of the spike protein and is more tuned to that

1:16:11 So you might need a third shot this year. And then if it's still out there, we'll be looking at how your antibodies, how your protection goes down over time and deciding how often you'll need another shot probably not yearly but as long as it's out there, we want as many Americans as possible not to be spreading it to each other. This man's thinking is contrary to human life These people are sick. It is as contrary to the human experience, it's all new but we got this new mystery thing taking place and it's bullcrap! Things are working fine in places like Florida and Texas except for your weather. Ooh I have a good one on that Stephanie Rule, Stephanie Rule she's the former Deutsche Bank favorite of The Trading Floor Boys...I'm just gonna say it

Florida vs California Lockdown Results, Vaccine Storage Failures

Andy Slavitt, a senior advisor for the White House COVID-19 response, is criticized for failing to explain why lockdown-heavy California and open Florida have similar case numbers. In Houston, 8,000 vaccine doses were reportedly "re-refrigerated" after a power outage, a practice the hosts compare to refreezing spoiled milk. Additionally, ABC News reports a massive drop in flu hospitalizations, with only 128 cases compared to 400,000 in previous years.

florida· california· andy slavitt· refrigeration· flu hospitalizations

1:17:09 Goldman Sachs, I'm sorry. And she is on with Andy Slavitt who is now the chief guy the administrator for Medicare and she's trying to figure out the difference between California and Florida. Let me start with what we just saw contrast states like Florida and California basically in lockdown and their numbers aren't that different from Florida Well, good morning Stephanie. Look there's so much of this virus that we think we understand and that we can predict but it is just a little bit beyond our explanation what we do know is the more careful people are the more they mask and social distance and quicker we vaccinate

1:17:52 the quicker it goes away and the less it spreads. But we have got to get better visibility into variants, we don't know what role they play large events etc but you know this is a as we all have learned by this time this is a virus that continues to surprise us um it's very hard to predict and in all around the country we've got to continue to do a better job How about a non-answer? It made no sense what he said. No, of course not! They can't answer simple question and it's not like she's doubling down say well do you didn't answer the question And this vaccine has to be stored at minus 70 degrees Fahrenheit. What is your temperature there in Austin?

1:18:33 Interesting this very special concoction we story after story about refrigeration We have all just all my freeze refrigeration. Not just any This is crazy high-tech, baby. This is some shit here We are which are tuning your system What happens in Houston? More than 8,000 COVID vaccines nearly went to waste after a storage facility lost power. More than 5,000 of those were distributed some to Rice University the rest saved The vaccine supply we thought we were gonna lose in a few hours We could actually re-refrigerate and administer it later Dude I don't even refreeze my meat! What?! What is going on!? This is wrong!!

1:19:20 We just froze it again. This is like taking bad, taking bad milk and thinking that's going to go good if you put it back in the refrigerator. It tripped me out! Tina's playing at it like what? It's either bad milk or its not! We were able to refreeze it. Whoo lucky I can't- Put me up front of line for that one That's the batch I want Finger licking good, but that's not I have one. I have one more clip But I want to save it for the end of this series because as I do have this though This is a 2021 flu hospitalizations clip from ABC

1:19:57 Okay. It even vibrates like real. All right, I got some humor for you but this is... Wait a minute go back and reconsider what you just played we have 128 flu hospitalizations compared to 400 000! But people just listen to that and go whatever no one thinks about it. And he glosses it over like there's nothing to it oh look at this good news yeah

Melbourne Quarantine Hotels, Garbage Bags and Fake Mask Tips

In Melbourne, Australia, COVID-positive patients were filmed being moved between quarantine hotels with garbage bags over their heads, which the hosts interpret as a symbolic degradation of citizens. A consumer report on identifying fake 3M masks is mocked for suggesting that buyers look for a "NIOSH" stamp, as counterfeiters would likely print the stamp as well.

melbourne· quarantine· garbage bags· 3m masks· niosh

1:20:45 It doesn't surprise me. You walk around town, if you could and you say what happened to flu? They said it was really low this year it was great imagine the problems we would have been in if there were actual flu! Oh no! No that's not the topper In Melbourne they had to move infected human resources from one COVID hotel to another COVID hotel for them to quarantine and these are diseased people and they treat them as such. Welcome back to the show on that breaking news on the evacuation of COVID positive patients from Melbourne's hot quarantine hotel, just reiterate this is COVID

1:21:30 positive patients being moved with garbage bags over their head out of the hotel. Today's question has been made in coverage exclusively all morning Chris good morning to you a major operation underway yeah that's right I've already seen one resident from this hot hotel the Holiday Inn in Flinders leave now what they're doing is they're taking the bags out first then this resident left with a garbage bag over their head only saw them fleetingly for a couple of seconds or so, they went onto the sky bar by themselves and then that bus was driven away with the driver in full PPE destination, the Pullman Hotel which will be their new health hotel. John this video of this these poor people they're putting garbage bags over their head for transportation That's what they're Australian government is doing is they are calling there own people garbage it symbolic

1:22:28 I think they didn't want to be shamed for having it, so they wanted to be anonymous. This is the truth. They requested the garbage bags? That's even worse! This is very distressing to hear Very distressing. I mean it's funny, but oh my goodness this is not funny yeah It is funny, but it's pathetic funny very pathetic funny I wanted to get back that I did have that little clip which kind of hinted about these fake masks Yeah Yes And they showed him and they were you know they look like they didn't say end its what you know whatever it was it said M for

1:23:10 you know 3M. Yeah but I want to see if you can spot the little screwiness to this report, this is the idiotic face mask report on ABC. Rachel let's get right to Stephanie because that was concerning how do you know if you have one of these masks Steph and what about the ones that might have made it past those warehouses? Well, David that's the ch to tell the difference be M 95 mask or a fake one. Y the NIOSH stamp which me by the National Institute and Health also a legit N have any misspellings an

1:23:46 ear loops, make sure it has a head strap. Authorities say they've reached out to hospitals medical facilities and possible victims who may have purchased the fake masks in at least 12 states." Hold on there was a lot going on there I got thrown off by the head strap. Yeah let me just tell you what it is she says keep and look out for because of mask is all printed and everything is perfect she says look after the NIO stamp that shows that its official Why wouldn't they just print the NIO stamp on there too with the counterfeiters? This is stupidest thing I've ever heard. It makes no sense! It makes NO sense, you're gonna print the 3M logo and all the rest on there You'd print a stamp to the fake stamp and then keep an eye out for this! Wow hard to take hard to take I just got a couple of things here

Jake Tapper, Monica Lewinsky and the "Fauci-ing" Dating Trend

CNN's Jake Tapper is discussed regarding his past dating history with Monica Lewinsky and his previous writings for the Washington City Paper. A new dating trend called "Fauci-ing" is introduced, defined by the app Plenty of Fish as declining to date someone who does not take COVID-19 seriously. Dr. Anthony Fauci is also noted for receiving an award for his contributions to HIV research and mRNA vaccines.

jake tapper· monica lewinsky· fauci-ing· plenty of fish· okcupid

1:24:37 We're gonna wrap this up something weird. Yeah, I got to one believe me i get to one last clip okay all right yeah all right all right uh Jake Tapper weird nutty vaccine thing what was this in the health lead what may be an added benefit of the COVID vaccine not only can it prevent a person from feeling symptoms but now Dr Anthony Fauci says new studies show that the vaccine might also slow the spread of the virus What kind of vaccine is this? The vaccine, it's so great. It might slow the spread of the virus! Why is this news? I've heard this all week they're making a big deal out of this particular isn't the vaccine supposed to stop the virus in you and that would naturally slow the spread if it was a true vaccine correct but it's not a true vaccine it's just a witch's brew experiment like yeah

1:25:36 Just as a side note. And even the one that comes from Johnson & Johnson, the other was some monkey virus or some monkey issue. Right right yeah the monkey version yeah that's Johnson & Johnson. They send you a shot of monkey and turn into a monkey. Yippee! You know Jake Tapper I can't take him seriously especially after i learned today...I don't know if this is doing The Round someone sent it to me he once dated Monica Lewinsky before the Bill Clinton scandal, but he also wrote about it when he was writing for The Washington City Paper. And besides it's just funny... He writes really misogynistically because back in the day it was normal to say well she was kind of zefty She wasn't ugly she was zefty I guess a code word for thick or chunky Yeah, from the Yiddish, zoftik Did you know that he had dated Monica?

1:26:32 I never heard this. Yeah, and he wrote about it. The word must have gone around! And he wrote about it but... He could get cancelled over this That's the kind of stuff- He should be cancelled That's the kind of stuff that children go and eat crap over and cancel Alright so imma wrap up No no your clip is the last one I just wanted to You still got more? Last one It's important Well Ganz explains what it means to get FAUCHEED Navigating dating virtually is tough enough and you've also got an all-new lexicon of love to learn too. What, like it's hard? Zumping that's when you use zoom to dump someone. Zooty call that's when you use zoom to do something else

1:27:14 Oh my god. And now there's fouchying, a term first coined by the dating app Plenty of Fish Fouchying verb means declining to date someone because you don't feel they're taking COVID-19 seriously enough On top of being worried about ghosting or catfishing Now I have to worry about being fouched Is this a thing? is being fouched a thing Yeah, what we're seeing at OkCupid is thousands of people who said they wouldn't even bother meeting up with someone who wouldn't be open to socially distancing. Forget Cupid! The Fauci effect is in full force the doctor himself learning about Fauci-ing just this week

1:27:59 I'm gonna Fauci you. Yeah, hold on. Hold on you guys get the guy knows how to work it wait I'll be done after this here laureate of the present time dimension in the field of public health is Dr.. Anthony Fauci for his exceptional contribution to HIV research for being the outspoken to

1:28:52 for the recognition of novel approaches such as mRNA vaccines now being given to millions worldwide and for courageously defending science in the face of uninformed opposition during the challenging COVID crisis. Well, how about that? And they have the audacity to give him credit for HIV AIDS where he killed people Still in the process of doing that looks like to me Unbelievable. All right, give me your last okay So this is a clip that I this is the business thing? I really just despise this lip because they have to because it's cuz this is part of the battle between you and me

Vaccine Passports, European Resistance and Immigration Requirements

The debate over vaccine passports is intensifying across the European Union, with Israel and Iceland already implementing systems for gyms and travel. France is reportedly resisting the measure due to concerns over transmission and equal access. The discussion frames these passports as the next step in a "biosecurity state," noting that while the U.S. requires some vaccinations for legal immigrants, the new proposals represent a significant expansion of domestic control.

vaccine passport· iceland· israel· france· biosecurity state

1:29:40 We have no battle with you. Oh, yeah Yeah, oh I do that with the vaccine passport And I wouldn't call it a battle So the vaccine passport this is interesting just came out of France 24 because the French are resisting good for them which we are going to have to do too, but a lot of countries that are knuckling under this idea or very disappointing. I'm very disappointed in Iceland for example and Poland for that matter. But here's the update on the current situation

1:30:15 status of the vaccine passport. The debate over the ethics and practicality of so-called a vaccine passports is ramping up here in France with a new online survey set to ask French people what they think of the idea. Bahrain has become the latest country to launch such a program following in the footsteps Israel and also Iceland but the issue continues to divide opinion across the European Union, Carys Garland explains There are two sides to the arrivals terminal in Iceland's capital. One where incoming passengers wait to be tested before self-isolating and another for the few who have been vaccinated against COVID 19 like this woman from Denmark I have got 2 vaccines You don't have to quarantine at all? No, first time

1:31:04 many months so I'm happy now. Iceland was one of the first countries to use a vaccine passport amid the pandemic Sweden, Poland Estonia Cyprus and Greece have either implemented vaccine passport systems or announced plans to do so for some countries the goal is to facilitate travel but others like Israel go even further Almost 45% of the country's population has received the two injections. By the end of the month, only those vaccinated against COVID-19 will be able to visit gyms hotels theaters and places of worship

1:31:40 Several southern EU countries that rely on tourism are calling on the bloc to adopt a common policy on the issue. But with only 3% of the EU's population having received one dose so far, it doesn't look to happen soon We are here to make sure that our citizens get the vaccines as fast as possible, that these vaccines are followed up by certificates and then for anything that comes afterwards it is indeed a political discussion to be had at the moment when the political leaders decide to do so. France for its part has expressed reservations on the issue with Health Minister Olivier Véran saying not everyone has access to vaccines and it's unclear if the jabs actually prevent transmission. Nice ender, nice kicker! So I have to have a vaccine passport to go to the synagogue in Israel? Sounds like it, sounds like it... They should be ashamed of themselves

1:32:38 Now, I have a Redbook entry from November 12th about passports for access. And in no way going to claim any victory because the conversation was specifically about Ticketmaster and venues of the like Vaccination passports and proof of vaccination is required by, has always been required by most countries. The United States immigration requires you to show that you've had a number of basic vaccinations if not you will have to take them again and prove it and also in negative HIV test unless you're sneaking over the border then all of that's fine. You good? It's not important so I can

1:33:22 Even though I disagree because it's this, it's what this is which does not warrant it. There's no passport for people coming from Ebola countries and they got some kind of vaccine for that The problem is It's so obvious that this is where its headed It's another piece of the biosecurity state pharma thing That they want to implement It just seems logical And especially with these variants and extra boosters and third shot, you know it's just control. How are the French resisting? What are they doing? The way they always do it is say no! Burn shit down... Put on a yellow vest and say yes. Yeah burn stuff down they stand in the street It's very concerning this is very concerning Well it's the resistance as you know is valid I mean French are

Rush Limbaugh Passing, Media Vitriol and Larry Charles

The death of radio legend Rush Limbaugh is met with significant vitriol from left-wing commentators, including Seinfeld co-creator Larry Charles. Limbaugh's career is remembered through his early days with syndicators Media America, where he became a broadcast pioneer on AM radio. The hosts criticize Twitter and Jack Dorsey for allowing celebratory posts regarding Limbaugh's passing.

rush limbaugh· larry charles· jack dorsey· media america· radio syndication

1:34:17 The French are good. They have some... they're into for liberty is one of the things we don't even have that in our model, Liberty fraternity and equality what's different? What's going on in the background there with you That is a garbage truck. Oh, okay they're backing it up Extremely loud I don't know i've never heard that sound before It sounds like its killing a duck or something Well then before we break we might as well just say that uh... I'm certainly sad Rush Limbaugh passed away For some reason I kind of had to hope that maybe he would recover I guess that was silly. It's always possible people have done that, i mean Michael Douglas you know is in a situation where he would yeah yeah with the tongue and throat cancer yeah well we have all the and all the creeps on the left came out oh my goodness Huffington Post...

1:35:08 I'm speechless about the vitriol and the vile that people were writing in eulogies. What's the opposite of a eulogy? There's got to be where you try to kill someone who is already dead, just do it again... I don't know! It was one clip, one sickening clip that I apologize for in advance This is one of the co-creators of The Seinfeld Show, a super guy's loaded Larry Charles who was Larry David's partner in creating that show. And Larry Charles who looks like a bum off the street is probably worth you know two three hundred million dollars

1:35:44 uh... it decided to go video and post this on- by the way, Twitter should be ashamed of itself for allowing any of this. They won't allow anything but they did all this anti-Rush stuff is fabulous! This is great let's go! I'm sure Jack Dorsey was just approving at all and this idiot thinks this is funny. Rush Limbaugh another white man propagating hate and lies is dead once he was important man once he mattered Now, he's just decomposing matter. Yeah, yeah that's a fact. But forget about what... I mean he is a broadcast legend! I met him once and i was fortunate in a way but at the time didn't realize it we had the same radio syndicators Media America the legendary Ron Hartenbaum and Gary Schoenfeld

1:36:49 They were an independent syndicator of radio shows. They did my Top 30 Hit List and a couple other things, and Hitline USA. And they are the ones that took Rush and got him advertisers because these were you know it was a scrappy kind of outfit. I wasn't into politics at the time. I was doing top 40 radios like yeah whatever this guy Rush Limbaugh blah blah blah...and i met him one time and everyone's just like why do Why he's kissing his feet? It was unbelievable. Now, he also was making at that time I think about a hundred million dollars a year for them and a certain point then he probably made more in the end at the peak and He did this on AM radio. I mean just as a broadcaster anybody should be able to appreciate that in this format

CHAPTER 26 / 47 Discussion

Leo Laporte, Rush Limbaugh and the 21 Club Meeting

A historical anecdote reveals that Rush Limbaugh's syndication success led to Leo Laporte being bumped from his radio slot on KNBR. Despite this, Limbaugh later recorded a promo for a computing show hosted by Laporte and one of the podcast hosts, as Limbaugh was a known "Mac head." A personal meeting with Limbaugh at New York's 21 Club is described, noting his surprisingly average height and pleasant demeanor.

leo laporte· knbr· macuser· 21 club· computing show

1:37:40 Well, I met him once too. And actually the funny irony is that Rush Limbaugh when he started taking off He's the one who ended up getting Leo Laporte kicked off of the radio Oh! I don't know this story. He had a talk show. Sorry? I didn't...I don't know this story You never heard this story? No Okay, Leo Laporte was a one of those guys who did a formulaic kind of middle-of-the road Everybody it's Leo Laporte here. How you doing? Good afternoon like that and he was on KNBR I think it was one of the local stations KGO can be our cast if I'm not sure but I used to come On the show and do this way, you know, sir. That was good. Oh, that's how you met Leo Yeah, you were on his show. Yes, I read right

1:38:27 And he got bumped off the air because they decided to go with syndicated content and they brought in Rush Limbaugh. Leo was bumped, that was the end of him on AM and he had this scrounger. So he was scrambling after that. But there was another twist to that story, Leo and I eventually did a radio show on one of the local stations that may have been KNBR again on computing, it was every Sunday or Saturday show and somehow somebody got hold of Rush to do a promo for this show!

1:39:07 I'm Rush Limbaugh on the Violist in Tech because Rush Limbaugh, well that's right. I think it was through Mac User or something because Rush was a big Mac head and he kept up with this stuff so he read me in Mac User and so I got him to do this promo And I think we played it once on this show and somehow Leo lost it He lost it. He lost the promo. You know, I have a Bart Simpson promo video too that i've lost over the years. That was nice. Oh yeah you can lose stuff but animated yeah so But when I met him at 21 and he was in 21 club in New York with a restaurant and it's not a restaurant its not a club but it's called 21 And uh... he is a really nice guy

1:39:53 He was just after some dinner or something. He had a cigar, which it was not lit and he... And what surprised me about him wasn't that tall. He's probably about 5'9". Oh, 5'9", okay, that's not bad Maybe but well you know the funny thing to just as a reflection of that I saw some asshole Put my height in the Wikipedia as five nine Minus 5 6 1 everybody minus 5 17 somebody go change that minus minus 517 in the Wikipedia

1:40:31 That's cute. Yeah, this is that more accurate yeah Five nine but also if you have your looked at net worth I'm worth a lot of money online You're good. Go spend it. Hey, you're buying! Ever see those? Yeah there's a bunch of them out there. Some of them are very accurate and most of them aren't I've never seen anything accurate ever No with people that are very rich the accuracy goes up So how come you and Leo never continue doing this show together on computing or just to show together

1:41:10 Oh, we did it for quite a while. I think for a couple of years but it was...I never got any money out of it! Oh wow there you go! We're just working for free? I'm not gonna keep doing that. That's not going to work. Because we had this producer who is this guy who just never paid us like as far as I'm concerned Yeah, very funny. You got a good story anyway American legend I hope he likes all the vitriol that's being spewed and these people should be ashamed of themselves this sick sick sick people No, there's people were dead people on the left that came off to rush after he died is it's just really pathetic? I think it's time man you got one ready oh Uh yeah, I think so well there it is I didn't hear it

The hosts promote the No Agenda Stream and the decentralized social network, No Agenda Social, which is built on the Mastodon platform. They thank artist Darren O'Neill for the Episode 1321 artwork featuring a Valentine's box of Pabst Blue Ribbon (PBR). The discussion touches on the selection process for the art, including a rejected "Eat Me" candy heart design deemed too lewd.

1:45:55 Be my unity.

Math as a Construct of White Supremacy, Joe Biden Town Hall

The concept of "math is racist" is discussed in the context of Oakland schools, where some activists argue that focusing on the right answer is a construct of white supremacy. This is linked to comments made by President Joe Biden during a town hall regarding the difficulty minorities face in getting online or finding a DMV. The hosts criticize these views as condescending and patronizing toward the black community.

I also want to wish a happy belated birthday to Sir Ryan the Refiner on February 11th, and early birthday wishes to Jenna on 3-3 both on this list. Love Sir Shyster Destroyer of Cones Moses Lake

2:08:53 Washington. Yeah, that's cropped up again this math is racist and I'll have to figure out which MoFax episode it is but the reason why it's being called racist because 95% of all the things that these nutjobs tell you can be debunked with math and they don't want you to do that so its racist It's like, whenever math comes into play and it's used statistics. It's always against you and they don't want you to know what's really going on so math is racist especially asking how you arrived at your answer And that's from MoFax Do with it what you will There are some local Oaklanders that are into this I just don't have the sheet in front of me but

2:09:41 pushing the idea that there's no right answer? Oh yeah, as long as you show your work it doesn't matter if the answer is wrong. But you can ask someone to show your work. You have to do it out of the goodness of your own incorrect heart And it seems to me that this was the same group promoting Ebonics They're the racists trying to keep black kids stupid in Oakland Well, so you got your ebonics and you got your math. It doesn't make any sense And you're good to go didn't Joe Biden finding work didn't Joe Biden during us I didn't see it of course during his town hall say that I think he literally said minorities and then he might even said black they have much harder time getting online Did you catch any of that? I don't have that clip but it was reported that he said that I looked I couldn't find it personally But yeah

2:10:40 Yes, yes. Supposedly those poor black people they're so dumb they can't get online that's... They're all online! It's just remind me remember the time there was this thing well blacks they are too dumb to find an ID to get a driver's license? To find the DMV So they went out on the street and everyone they asked about this every black person they asked about was extremely insulted by this Yeah, we can get IDs. We know how to do that! We all have IDs. What are you nuts? Well they are nuts... They're nuts and they're condescending. They're condescending and patronizing creeps And they're the same ones who went off on Rush Limbaugh Richard Garrett's next on the list in Thunder Bay Ontario $200 We have no note that i can find from him But if he has something to say He can send it later and we'll read it Anonymous in Madison Wisconsin comes up next with the same 200 dollars Actually its a different 200

Joe Biden's Town Hall Performance, Rhetorical Tricks

President Joe Biden's performance at a recent town hall is compared to the late-career revival of comedian George Burns. A specific clip is analyzed where Biden corrects himself after saying "as you remember," which the hosts interpret as a potential administrative rule against highlighting the President's memory lapses. They also note Biden's claim that the vaccine was not available when he took office, despite having received both shots in December 2020.

Yeah he looks like he was half dead there. I'm losing confidence in my thesis that you'll liven up and that you said he's gonna do a lot who you watch Biden i heard you say it

2:16:54 I did. I said it because i'm reminded of the story about Jack Benny and George Burns. Okay. And George Burns was like Biden, kind of you know he's in his late 70s early 80s just dead on his feet And his best friend was Jack Benny and George was like, you know walk. He wasn't doing more or he didn't have any shows It wasn't doing anything just old gone Jack Benny gets the role that lead role in the movie God Oh And then he dies

2:17:33 And so they, oh god what are we going to do? We got to find somebody that's gonna be able to play this character. So they went up to George Burns and said would you like to take his place and he could be honored to do so because George Benny was his best friend. All of a sudden he reverts 10 years back livens up memorizes the whole script becomes young again and then lives to 100 doing his act with showgirls and everything after that! This is the basis of your theory that Biden will get a lot done? Yes, in fact I know it sounds stupid and it's the basis. It's a little crackpotty by the way I figured Biden would liven up and get to work And he'd become all kinds of things other than what he's become which is uh... Emergency message we have six Chinese producers

2:18:33 Thank you Chinese producers. Yes, we love all six of you we do From the CCP yes Eric with a CCP Okay, this is the Biden-Gaff new WTF. The biggest thing though as you remember when you and I... I shouldn't say it that way to remember but when you and I talked last we talked about this one thing now the vaccine which we didn't have when we came into office Wait a minute wait now I have not seen this What is your takeaway from what he just did here? Why he corrected himself instead of saying that

2:19:18 Just my first impression, you've heard it a couple times. Anything or just... I have no... What he said was as you remember and then he says I'm sorry shouldn't say that maybe he's been called out for making assumptions or mind reading or using that's an old rhetorical trick to say this so like I'll do it you do it we both do it everybody who is in broadcasting does it which is instead of You know, it's just to get the conversation moving. You'll say something like well you remember when we did blah blah blah one you get the thing rolling instead of wait instead of saying do you remember when and then stopping the flow and so it's a trick So but why would he correct that I have no idea is it possible?

2:20:07 that this has become a no-go phrase within the administration because people would say to him, Mr. President as you remember and of course he doesn't So they made a rule, you can't say that. Oh I shouldn't be saying... No one should say that so he's kind of implementing his own rule I have a feeling That was the first thing that hit me Wow Is it far-fetched? Let's listen again It's pretty far fetched Listen again as it was my first impression The biggest thing though is remember when you and I... I shouldn't say it that way to remember but When you and I talked last we talked about this one thing now the vaccine which we didn't have when we came into office I don't know, man.

CHAPTER 34 / 47 Discussion

Economic Projections, 7 Million Jobs and Biden's Rambles

President Biden's claim that his economic bill will create 7 million jobs this year is scrutinized. The hosts highlight his "ramble of rambles" during the town hall, where he struggled to answer direct questions about the $1.9 trillion price tag of the stimulus package. The discussion notes the similarity in rhetorical style between Biden and Trump, despite their different political leanings.

unemployment· wall street· economists· town hall· stimulus bill

2:20:47 I know, just my thinking. Well the point of that clip wasn't that... No, no, no. The point was he had both shots before he came into office but now he doesn't remember that. Oh this was a big scandal! Fox News like boodoo-boodoo emergency broadcast, I'm Hannity breaking news can you believe it? Breaking news?! The guy's an idiot. He doesn't even remember breaking news our president doesn't remember breaking news okay So here's another one. This is the I consider this one to buy, I don't know what I call that ramble of rambles for the town hall. This is probably the best ramble I could find. It's estimated that if we by most economists including Wall Street firms as well as you know think tanks of political think tanks left right and center it is estimated that if we pass this bill alone

2:21:42 We'll create 7 million jobs this year. 7 million jobs this year! And so, the thing we haven't talked about... Please clap I'm not going to go on because I want to hear your question and apologize I remember you and I talking during the campaign, and you had the former guy saying that well we're just going to open things up. That's all we need to do. We said no, you've got to deal with this disease before you deal with getting economy going. Well, the fact is that the economy now has to be dealt with. Look at all of people. You have over 10 million people unemployed. We need unemployment insurance.

2:22:31 Wow, where to start with this one. The first impression on this is kind of fun since I didn't watch it There's not much difference between the way President Trump would sometimes try to explain things in the way Joe Biden did at least that first half You know like spurts and early he calls Trump the other guy right now. I heard that hi her that It you know what? I mean so like spurts of words He's trying to connect together And then add like little punchy stuff Yeah, let me hear it again. It's estimated that if we by most economists including Wall Street firms as well as you know think tanks of political think tanks left right and center it is estimated that if you we pass this bill alone No I'm sorry there's no comparison Joe Biden President Biden is toast isn't really no comparison

2:23:27 It's pathetic. Now here is the other one, this is the other ramble that was only a minute even though it seemed like an hour This one is only 15 seconds and this is his comedy something GTO bill ramble Are you committed to passing 1.9 trillion dollar bill or is that final number still up for negotiation? I'm committed to pass... look Here are some of you probably economists there college professors who teach in school What?! What was the answer to the question? He never gives the answer. He goes off to deep end Interesting, I don't know what he can't answer a question like that hmm okay here's another clip this is him pushing to September when we're gonna get back to normal or

CHAPTER 35 / 47 Discussion

School Reopening Confusion, Jen Psaki and Teachers Unions

The White House faces criticism for conflicting messages regarding school reopenings, with Press Secretary Jen Psaki initially defining "open" as one day a week. President Biden later walked this back, targeting a majority of K-8 schools for full reopening. The hosts suggest the administration is stalling to satisfy teachers unions who are demanding vaccinations before returning to classrooms.

jen psaki· school reopening· teachers unions· k-8· stimulus

2:24:19 It is just a comment. I just clipped it at is not as good as the first one, but okay But it is highly unlikely that by the beginning of next year's school traditional school year in September We are not significantly better off than we are today, but it matters It matters whether you continue to wear that mask It matters it matters what may I have two more two more I'm done This is the one that got, this has got the other Fox attention. And unfortunately it's under Niden not Biden I'm seeing that on the clip list and this is the big opening school controversy which was based on something Jen Psaki said at the press conference so they jumped all over him because he said something different now we can play them in either order you played Jen Psaki first

2:25:19 Which is what she said which triggered the question that he got? Or we can play him first and then play Pasaki. And I put the names on there because...I wonder, and i'm gonna let you choose. Uh, I'd like them in A-B order please so I'd like Niden opening Scrooge A. goal to open the majority of schools in your first hundred days you're now saying that means those schools may only be open for at least one day a week. No, that's not true That was reported and it was a mistake in the communication but what I'm talking about is opening the majority of schools in K through eighth grade because they are easiest to open

2:26:04 Yeah, this is the whole confusion thing that everyone is tripping over and it came from something Psaki said and that's clip B. Correct? Yep His goal that he set is to have the majority of schools so more than 50% open by day 100 of his presidency And that means some teaching in classrooms So at least one day a week Hopefully its more There was something that Jen Psaki said, and I thought I had the video. It was her answering something about this particular issue...

2:26:51 And she wound up by saying, and I gosh, the punchline is no. I'm certain the president thinks that way as do I and I am his direct supervisor It's hilarious but now I don't know what happened to it Oh we've got to dig that clip up That was a good one Yeah its real I'm so sad There was a lot of stuff going on here Just sticking on that for second This was the whole school thing And again, to me it just looks like they're stalling to get the teachers union whatever they want and whatever they're waiting for in passing this $1.9 trillion bill and now it's come down to if they have priority... I guess they want to be vaccinated first before everybody else? They wanna jump the line so-to-speak. And I had two... Let me see what I have here from CNN

CHAPTER 36 / 47 Discussion

CNN Pushback on CDC, Rochelle Walensky and Social Distancing

CNN's Jake Tapper is noted for pushing back against CDC Director Rochelle Walensky regarding the necessity of six-foot distancing in schools. Walensky's private emails from the summer suggested three feet was safe, yet current guidelines maintain the six-foot rule, which prevents many schools from reopening due to space constraints. The hosts express surprise at CNN's aggressive questioning of administration officials.

cnn· jake tapper· rochelle walensky· cdc· social distancing

2:27:47 Dr. Rochelle Walensky and Jake Tapper, who was very confused by the data and the numbers? So the CDC guidelines suggest schools could opt not to reopen in-person classes if they're in a red zone with the high community spread that you just referred to According to our analysis of federal data That includes 99% of American children But you have said, quote there's very little transmission happening in the schools. CDC researchers just wrote in JAMA that quote there has been little evidence that schools have contributed meaningfully to increased community transmission so why give schools that opt not to open up?

2:28:30 In that red zone that you're referring to, and in fact yes many of our current counties are in that red zone although our numbers continue to decline. But in that red zone we advocate for hybrid elementary school because we believe those K-5 kids are A transmitting less be really essential to have back in the classroom. And if you're in middle school or high school, we would advocate for virtual learning for that group or if you're able to do six feet of strict six feet of distancing in those classrooms to open remotely and a hybrid way. And I'm not quite sure but CNN is pushing back so hard on this and we have to figure out why

2:29:16 Because for some reason I don't know what you mean. They're pushing back on what okay? So the CDC, I explained this at the beginning of the show. The CDC has come out with guidance that said you can go back to school teachers don't need vaccinations and now but that was what Biden said there was a miscommunication we believe and a miscommunication came from Psaki but the CDC guidance is clear they don't need to have vaccines And the whole administration is tripped up by this and they're saying, oh yes no they need preference. They should have preference just like frontline workers The vice president is out saying this Biden... President Biden's trying to do it in the town hall They've messed it up

2:30:04 I'm surprised you haven't noticed this. It's all over the place." And then she just... I've noticed it, but that's not the only thing! Everything is all over the place! Well she just said- But here's my point CNN is attacking these people and these are administration level officials they're going against President Biden and I don't know quite why And even as she said, oh we have to have six feet of distancing. He has a got you for her as well! The CDC and you in this interview keep recommending six feet of distance between students This is of course one of the barriers keeping some school closed because classrooms aren't big enough Class... teachers are already overwhelmed by the number of students in their classroom Over the summer You suggested in a private email to the mayor of Newton Massachusetts

CHAPTER 37 / 47 Discussion

Simone Sanders, Kamala Harris and Vaccination Priority

White House spokesperson Simone Sanders is questioned by CNN about whether teacher vaccinations are a prerequisite for school reopenings. While the CDC says it is not necessary, the administration continues to emphasize that teachers should be prioritized. The segment highlights the tension between scientific guidance and political pressure from labor groups.

simone sanders· kamala harris· cnn· teachers· vaccinations

2:30:51 that three feet of distance was quote quite safe if people are masked. So is six feet absolutely necessary or can students be safe at closer distances? Over the summer we were much less disease and our guidance is a bit more flexible in terms of the distancing, If you are low rates of transmission those rates that we were seeing over the summer The other thing I want to just... She's not answering the question don't worry But they're just going after them all the time. Here's another one, this is Simone Sanders now she was She ran the campaign for Bernie Sanders then she switched over to The Biden campaign then she kind of went a little bit in the background and now she is the primary spokeshole for vice president Kamala Harris And this is what she said also again being

2:31:42 called to task by CNN. It's not a trick question and I feel like you guys have treated it like a trick question, I think people just want to know what the White House position is on whether or not teachers have to be vaccinated for kids to return safely to school. The CDC director Rochelle Walensky says the science is that teachers don't necessarily have to be vaccinated for kids to return and I think people want to know what the White House position is on that The White House position is that, and the President and Vice President believe that teachers should be prioritized for receiving the vaccination along with other frontline workers. And in at least 22 states in the District of Columbia, that's exactly what's happening. Prioritize is one thing I think there's wide agreement they should be prioritized and why not? Is it necessary though? That's the question really is a yes no question.

2:32:34 think I don't understand why it's a hard question to answer. It may be that you want every teacher to be vaccinated, it maybe the answer is yeah teachers should if they can be vaccinated before they return to school but its not necessary. I dont know it feels like there something up and they want to prove that either their

2:33:13 that either they are against, you know just as fair as they are to any other president maybe that's it. Maybe there is some other force pushing somethings up with this This is a constant attack and its only from CNN I have no idea Me neither I mean I've seen some of this debate going on back and forth the teachers and the teacher union we have a real situation in San Francisco where the city has actually sued the school district to get them back to open up. They can't get any movement and the teachers unions are holding fast that they need to get a shot, and they don't even want to do it. They'd rather just collect money not doing anything from the sounds of it. These teachers unions is like horrible group of people. They haven't done any good. They're not teaching their kids.

CHAPTER 38 / 47 Discussion

Dutch Curfew Court Case, History of Lockdowns

A high court in the Netherlands ruled the national curfew unconstitutional, though the government is appealing and keeping the restriction in place. Dr. Drew Pinsky is cited regarding the history of lockdowns, which he claims originated from a 2000 high school science project in Albuquerque rather than established epidemiological science. The discussion notes that the strategy was never part of the CDC lexicon until the Chinese Communist Party implemented it in Wuhan.

netherlands· high court· curfew· dr. drew· albuquerque

2:34:07 It's just unbelievable. I mean, they're just turning him into Democrats which is what they want to do because of unions and I don't know keep following it will figure it'll come it'll figure itself out speaking of court cases in the Netherlands one of these anti Anti lockdown groups and we sued the government in the high court For the curfew that it was unconstitutional. The court agreed with him this it was high drama This was broadcast live and the judge is all flustered and like well We have to we'll probably have to come back on Friday We can't do a do a full hearing because the lockdown's going into place at 930 And we have to although we're exempt It was just a mess so they won the state is now suing counter suing or it's a little different process in Netherlands, but

2:35:01 they're going to the next step higher, even though the court said there is no constitutional reason it's against people's freedom of movement, you have no legal way to do it and now the government is going to come back and they're going to... meanwhile the curfew stays in place. They feel that these are emergency procedures and they will be reinstated and they're just gonna do it! They're gonna overrule the court and then just gonna do it I'm sure there'll be five other court cases meanwhile people still locked down under curfew. Where? Who does the government think they're trying to prove here

2:35:43 Did the good little Chinese say those yeah, what would their good little Chinese dictators? You know none of this well the curfew goes back to the Second World War The last time they used it which is a little more sense. They're so polarizing I don't know It's it's baffling to me What is the point other than and there's not there's no people dying John It's the numbers are completely no that's not even discussed anymore. Just shut up we're just locking you up I don't understand it other than some, you know great reset bullcrap actually dr Drew had a bid on lockdowns Not necessarily the same as the curfew and he talked about the history of lockdowns which makes total sense You guys know the history of lockdowns United States? There's actually a history do you know this now go ahead yeah

2:36:40 It was invented by a 14-year old high school student in, I believe it was 2000. No this is factually true the New York Times ran this history A high school student Albuquerque, New Mexico who built a model, a computer model to reduce the spread of influenza She determined that you could close locally schools down because influenza is transmitted by children very different than this virus You can close down local schools and reduce the spread. Her father, who is a computer programmer at Los Alamos said that's a great idea but I could build a computer model for regional lockdowns in a pandemic. The Bush administration adopted it as policy no one had ever

2:37:22 You'll not find it in a epidemiology textbook, an infectious disease textbook. It wasn't until the Chinese Communist Party did it that it was something that anyone thought they would ever do and it's not something that has ever been tested. It's not something that is in the lexicon. The CDC never recommended it. It's really just something that has come out of nowhere without any science behind it. Dr Drew good hearing you on the podcast Sorry, you're going away. Okay? Where's he going the gulag they're not gonna let him talk like that Oh Z and was that YouTube on a podcast nobody he's a mainstream guy to a degree He's got no commercials for it is a very mainstream guy yeah, he's gotta be careful Larry Kudlow who

Larry Kudlow Hot Mic, Kamala Harris Vaccine Claims

Former economic advisor Larry Kudlow is caught on a hot mic yelling "bullshit" during a Fox Business segment featuring Vice President Kamala Harris. Harris was claiming that the administration had to "start from scratch" on the vaccine rollout, a statement Kudlow and the hosts dispute. The incident is described as a highly unprofessional moment for the veteran broadcaster.

larry kudlow· fox business· kamala harris· hot mic· bullshit

2:38:17 was a CNBC guy, then he became the president's financial markets advisor. Well he is back now and probably belongs doing financial stuff on television but you know CNBC won't have him anymore that would be a violation so it is now at Fox I think Fox Business can be even more insulting. And they introduced him and you know, he had a nice little welcome from the crew. It's great to have you here Larry! Larry... He has forgotten kind of how television works and when your co-host is speaking and she is doing the tease or the outro You might want to be quiet because your mic might be on

2:38:57 I love it. By the way, looking forward to it. I can't wait to see how you cover the GameStop story too But that growing retail participation in the stock market is huge. I'm good with it but they better understand what goes up and go down It's a great point all right we'll be watching tonight. Pleasure having you as a colleague Laird Thank You absolutely thank you On America Reports, we'll take a look at why there could be a potential conflict of interest for one of the World Health Organization's investigative team members. Why this is raising some serious questions over the probe into the origins of this global pandemic plus this... In many ways we are starting from scratch on something that has been raging for almost an entire year

2:39:41 That was Vice President Kamala Harris making some false claims about the administration's back. Unbelievable falsehoods. And that is Larry Kudlow weighing in. Apparently they took the, uh... Brother. There's nothing like yelling bullshit on a hot mic is there? What an idiot! You're very unprofessional Mr. Kudlow Back to the minor leagues you go. It seems to me I could be wrong, but he was probably drunk. Well we don't know about his drinking habits but we do know that he was quite well known for is uh...his love of the snow back in the day yes and that does make you talk a lot oh my my what's this what other stuff you got from me ma'am because i spent most of my load on

Facebook Australia News Ban, Google Content Deals

Facebook has blocked all news content for Australian users in response to proposed legislation requiring tech giants to pay publishers. In contrast, Google has struck multi-million dollar deals with major outlets like News Corp and Seven West Media. The ban inadvertently took down government health and emergency service pages, leading to a public outcry and ongoing negotiations between Mark Zuckerberg and the Australian Treasurer.

2:40:41 What's going on down here? I got some international news. I got some about that to tell me what's going on in the world John Let's look at the divisive decision On Facebook to Facebook and oh, yeah, it is a big story like a two-parter Oh good harder device of decision we were waiting for this to come down to it and Google was in the same boat But I don't know what's happened with them yet Analyze by the way, I'm sorry This is good for us to analyze because there's all kinds of things they could do and they haven't done them yet. Australia's treasurer has lashed out at Facebook saying the social media giant was wrong to block Australian Facebook users from viewing news content on their feeds The move comes in response to new proposed legislation that would require Facebook and also Google To pay media outlets for hosting their content

2:41:31 a law which is expected to be approved by Parliament in the coming days. Let's take a listen now to the Australian Minister for Communications. We've had discussions with all of the parties, all of the stakeholders, digital platforms and news media businesses that will continue but what will also continue is we'll continue with the process of legislating the Code The principle is very clear We, Google and Facebook are important parts of the digital ecosystem in Australia. They're important parts of the economy we've made it clear that we want them to continue operating here but we've also made it clear that if you do business in Australia you need to comply with the law of land and water. France 24's Rochelle Harrison-Plessin Sydney has more now on that divisive decision from Facebook I find this very interesting I like this a lot

2:42:19 Well, a couple of things that come to mind is that the naivete with the publishers there saying now you can't even run any of our stuff. I mean Facebook could do a lot more than they're doing. Facebook for example could say okay Will cut all your URLs are off and if people want to pass around news stories, it's all gonna be from American sources That's what they've already done. I believe I think that was part of the housing any news around from this report It seems like they're just cut off on news now The heart of the issue as I understand it goes back to Google News that that the Australian News whoever falls under that is being protected. The Australian government wants to protect them from being ripped off, not necessarily that Facebook is just a big ripoff artist but we know from history if you let the social media companies use your news stories in a certain way the advertising money pretty much goes to Facebook or Google and not to you. Is that the crux of what's going on here?

2:43:20 That's the element that they're dealing with, but unfortunately this has been tried in Europe and other places. I remember that. Belgium i think. And they cut them off completely and the guys almost went broke because they didn't get any links because most of the links are now being defunneled it's a choke point Google is a choke point you want to get somebody go to your site? Well, you can have your own... people go to your site just naturally but if they don't want to do that and they go through Google and they get a link to your site. Your numbers go way up because people do go there and then you do get your advertising benefits but I think it's something of a ripoff involved

2:43:56 And it seems to me that Google... Well, here play clip 2 and then we'll talk some more. The threats to unfriend Australia were there and now Facebook has followed through the social network has blocked Australian users and publishers from seeing or posting news That's in response to the federal government's proposed media bargaining code which would force internet giants to pay Australian news outlets for their content Facebook said it came to that decision with a heavy heart. But it's a decision thats in stark contrast to the approach of Google, another tech titan that would be affected by this contentious bargaining code While Google threatened to shut down its search engine in Australia

2:44:40 Since last week, it's cut several multi-million dollar deals with some of the country's biggest media companies such as News Corp., Seven West Media and Nine Entertainment. Meanwhile Facebook sudden news ban has not only affected news organizations It's also taken down Facebook pages for the Weather Bureau Fire and Emergency Services and crucially government health services in the middle of a pandemic This caused an outcry across the board with so many people relying on Facebook to get their news. This removes important and credible news and information at a time when health misinformation is rife on the platform. Meanwhile, the Australian Treasurer Josh Frydenberg said he had a constructive discussion with Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg this week.

CHAPTER 41 / 47 Discussion

Media Bargaining Code, Algorithm Control and AOL Comparisons

The Australian media dispute is framed as a battle over algorithm control rather than just money. The hosts compare Facebook's current dominance to the "walled garden" era of AOL, reminding listeners that they can still access news directly through web browsers. They suggest the Australian government may be seeking to influence the algorithms to ensure state-approved narratives are prioritized.

algorithms· aol· browser· australia· bargaining code

2:45:30 Thursday and that they've agreed to try to find a pathway forward. So the battle is not over just yet. Wow, this is now fascinating. They don't deserve it's fascinating but the reporting is not that good deal like Google did with the three publishers which way did the money go? I don't know. There's no evidence, they make it sound like oh you gotta use our stuff you got to pay us but the real money should go in the other direction this is the old problem that happened with cable TV where people first started there was community television

2:46:12 CTVs there were, and you get a big entity. Somebody would bring all these... It was designed to get local television out to the fringes and then all of a sudden they had uh all these people come in with these systems so we'll pay it to use them and next thing you know after they get very popular now you have to pay us to carry them because people want us more than they want you And so the money could go either way on these, because it seems as that most of the money goes to Google to get the links and stuff out in forms of advertising and just any other way. They make money every which way. So I would if it was me, I would say well let's do this to bypass this law. I would talk to three publishers we're gonna be exclusive. We're gonna exclusively just link to you by the millions of links

2:47:02 And for that, you're going to pay us. Yeah I believe that would be the deal That would be a deal yeah okay so my initial thought is this is very much like the not knowing how to light your gas stove without electricity There's more to the internet than Facebook and if Australians are really that worried, really that worried. Well there is a thing called a browser it might be called Safari on your iPhone It might be called Browser on your Android but you can use this to go to websites like your news website

2:47:49 You could probably make a little home, maybe you had a little homepage in your startup page. You could put it on your own... I mean there's so many ways to get the information Could it also be that this is more about the algorithms and what controlling mechanisms will be presented. I don't think it's about news or making money at all to me... Well, first of all you just contradicted yourself in terms of the meta. Okay If people are that stupid these publishers aren't that bright I'm not talking about the publishers. I'm talking about the government wants certain stories to be highlighted to control the people, let's be honest. I don't know that they know that they can do that Maybe Facebook has sold them... how about this? How about this maybe the dispute is about the control of the algorithm now

2:48:43 The Australian government may be getting a sales pitch saying, hey you want your people to feel good about a garbage bag on their head? No no that's possible. Leave it to us we'll build it up baby well make sure it feels good for everybody garbage bags is the future It could be I mean there's that elements in play with the sales pitches that you get from these companies because they didn't know they sell anything They'll sell out their own people if they have too Because there's money, there's money to be made. Now this whole thing is gonna... I don't know how it's going to end up but it's just a huge screw-up seems to me But back to your original thing about the browser If you remember that your sorry the era of AOL? I do! Oh everyone was that was it That was the bee's knees keyword

Internet History, MTV.com and the Rise of the Web

A retrospective on the early internet describes the registration of MTV.com and the era when AOL keywords were considered more valuable than URLs. The discussion covers failed proprietary systems like Apple's eWorld and the IBM-owned Prodigy, which ignored the burgeoning World Wide Web. Early social tools like ICQ and the CB simulator on CompuServe are credited with laying the groundwork for modern social media.

mtv.com· gopher· eworld· prodigy· compuserve· icq

2:49:35 No agenda, key word. Yep I've told the story many times for those who are new i will do one more time. I had MTV dot com and registered it didn't cost anything there was no website you sent the guy an email I got curry calm at the same time Elvis calm just a couple of fun ones that went to MTV and I said hey I'm doing this thing on the internet and have a server wasn't even a web service gopher server And it's going to be MTV.com, is that okay? And then that was the answer... Absolutely! Don't worry we've got the AOL keyword. We're not worried about your internet thing and that's how yeah Yeah, that's it, the keyword

2:50:19 And everybody was all locked into that. And now Facebook just, I've always said Facebook is just a AOL on steroids. But it went a little further if you remember the World Wide Web was coming up and America Online got a lot of pressure people were saying hey we want to be able to access the internet and then they finally said okay we're gonna give you a browser so kind of like a gateway to go look at the Internet but disclaimer disclaimer i think you had Do an overall disclaimer and then each time you went to the public internet through their gateway Which they had created a little browser. You had to click OK again that you knew that whatever was going on it was probably scary out there and What did it take nine months after that AOL was gone? Yeah, I was longer than okay But it was well lot longer than it should have taken

2:51:13 Right, but that was a good thing. That was what killed him They let people and the Internet people wanted it they couldn't think they couldn't resist Well, that's not the way I remember okay? How do you remember AOL was extremely popular so much So that articles were coming out of the internet was underway I mean the internet was always under way But the internet the browsing internet to www internet the that internet was underway, websites were underway. A couple of years went by before they caught up because in the meantime Apple took a look at the situation and they said well you know they said here's the Internet here's the browser and here's AOL let's we're gonna do our own system called eWorld I forgot to name it. Oh my goodness! I forgot about that

2:52:03 And in all their wisdom, they hopped on board with eWorld knowing because of all the reports of all the genius researchers saying ah! The Internet's a fad. It's too complicated no one wants to do it because you got AOL Everything can do on the internet You can do better on AOL and CompuServe was along in the same boat. So you had CompuServe, you had AOL, you had eWorld and he had Microsoft taking forever to get on board. Don't forget Prodigy! And so there we're now... We got CDs, we got interactive CDs if you really want to get into something in great detail You've got the CD-ROM, you've got information at your fingertips that took about a year to get over that idea and it took forever for people to get a clue

2:52:50 We had Prodigy, which was... wasn't that owned by Sears? Oh, Prodigy. Which was originally Trinitron or whatever the name of it was. Yeah, it was owned by Sears. Yeah, Prodigy. Which is a combination of IBM and two other major companies they put Prodigy out and that was gonna kick AOL's butt. They didn't care about the internet! And back in the day we had Apple Link I remember you had to have an Apple Link ID Sure you had sure you had that an apple link There was a- there wasn't... oh yeah, an EU. Oh my god I'm remembering all this Qlink?

2:53:27 Q. What was that? And there were BBSs, they were way out of control. CompuServe of course we had that. CompuServe was a big player but and that's where the CB which you mentioned in last show came from yeah which was the first kind of open chat rooms AOL had kinds of chat rooms so they weren't quite as wild to see be and then before that the course was The Source Oh The Source! Oh my gosh Genie! Ah yes, Genie. General Electric. G-E. Genie. Wait the source? Who owned the source? It was an independent operation that was bought eventually by I believe CompuServe

2:54:09 The, so it was out of control. There were all these systems and they're all dial up and they had all these things It really wasn't until a networking thing really cranked up before the internet started to take off I would say that the best piece of software that kind of survived in odd way might even be seeing revival Now, I don't know if it was ICQ first or then it was AOL Instant Messenger. ICQ is first, pretty sure. ICQ was badass and then they sold out in a couple of years like five years ago, I think they sold out to someone else and Apple Instant Messenger isn't that receiving a revival now? Isn't that somehow that came back? I didn't know this. Yeah. AIM baby all the kids were on it

tilburg· metairie· london· sharia law· fanta

2:55:01 So the internet was just one of many options. That's the way it was seen, it was seen as here is the internet that's one option then you have this option and that option and all these other options which are all going to kick internet's butt. And none of them did! Now we're doing podcasting on the internet. I'm gonna show my support by donating to No Agenda. Imagine all the people who could do that! Oh yeah, that'd be fab! Yeah on No Agenda in the morning We have a few people thank for Show 1322 starting with Tomas Bjard in Tilburg. Tilburg. Tilburg. Oh Tilburg, yeah

2:55:49 He does have a yearly carnival contribution. I don't know what that means, but you do because he's from Holland. I don't know! It's for the carnival. He has got a birthday shout out though...that is on the list. Aaron Farrell and he is in at $111.11 as is Aaron Farrell in Wadsworth Illinois Dorothy Schroed in Corvallis Oregon And there's a three simultaneous donations of 33.33, uh, 99.99 Brian Kendall 99.99 not a douche bag anymore. Well you should give him a de-douching please. You've been de-douched Sir Herb Lamb in Sugar Hill Georgia 8008 sends a call out to

David Walker and she's 71 so is David Walker 71 with also a birthday calling out? Somebody needs to de-douche him. Yes, David Walker. You've been de-douched! Let me see... Also in the UK. It was very coincidental that two people from the UK one after the other someone who has $71 and coincidentally both have birthdays Is that maybe 50 pounds these days

2:57:35 No, no. Yeah maybe it sounds about right I think the pounds about $1.35 as we speak that would be David Walker was our guy then William Cameron in Charlotte North Carolina 69-69 Sir Craig the Viscount of Northeast Georgia in Atlanta 69-69 wishes you luck Glenn Kukas Rhode Island 5863 Sir Roger on ice in Tampa Florida 5555 Chris Christie Bentley and Forestville California 5555

Yeah we need to read this because he will be knighted today so here we go first I must say the no agenda show has been invaluable to me over the last seven years of listening as it really has kept me calm Invaluable. I thought it said invaluable, but I meant invaluable as it is really valid kept me calm although rather frustrated as the world around me devolves into woke and media manipulated nonsense As a Londoner working for one of the big four professional services firms I've been subjected to an excessive amount of mandatory training which has which is either specifically about

2:59:05 D&I slash racism, diversity and inclusion or completely unrelated trainings having to be adjusted to force in the topic. This gumpf has good word gumpf has only accelerated in the last couple of years even seeing one of our European partners tout a build back better challenge it's been rather sickening anyway I was hit in the mouth by my dear friend Sir Matthew of Greenwich, big shout out and thank you. And have been a devoted listener slash producer ever since actually being a rare no-romo listener John i also listen to DH Unplugged but that doesn't quite fit the moniker maybe Do De Ro Moi It's getting there! I'm long overdue in claiming my knighthood as I am closer to baronet status for my monthly donations but upon finding The Blow article

2:59:53 I would want to simply contribute something other than some treasure and therefore two birds with one stone. I'd like to say no jingles, no karma have this jingle i've been longing to hear that hasn't been played for a while that seems like years can I ask for my sharia law jingle which is one of the best ever yes we'll put at the end of the show uh I would like to be known as Sir Trickles of Greenwich and would love some fajitas And Fanta Orange at the round table. Love and light soon to be, Sir Trickles of Greenwich." You got it! I'm putting-I'm getting in the order right now as we speak. I think you're gonna have to call out for the Fanta... I think they stopped making it. Fanta? I think that's- At least in the US. Oh, I think in Europe they still make it. Think. Maybe Well, I don't know if we can get it otherwise We'll just slip an orange crayon in some uh..in some carbonated water

Asteroid Near-Misses, Mars Rover and "Greenland" Movie

A sudden surge in news stories about near-miss asteroids and comets is noted, with some speculating it may be viral marketing for the Gerard Butler movie "Greenland." NASA's Perseverance rover is preparing for a landing on Mars to collect samples in "super clean tubes." The hosts express skepticism about the mission's goal of finding life, suggesting it may be another media-driven narrative.

3:09:32 Try this one. People have made some life and death choices. That's all you got? No, I got they matter Okay... They matter They matter That's- I'm gonna Fauci you! I kinda like the Fauci you better It's so echoey They matter Yeah your Joe does have a better presence I'm gonna Fauci you Oh here's one This is what I thought would do it. The package is huge! Come on, come on... Okay that's the winner. The package is huge! I don't even know where I get these. Yeah there's lots of stuff I want to talk about on Sunday we've had I think five near miss asteroids in the past two weeks It's not really being reported but it's out there Have you noticed any of this? I saw that stupid video

3:10:34 Some guy sent this video around about the near-miss asteroids and missing Krakatoa. Krakatoa, you guys could comment on it! Krakatoa's gone! There was a... Krakatoa had an eruption in 2018. 2018? Three years ago when half the mountain disappeared and fell into the ocean So this is a news? I don't believe any of that whole thing, that whole video. I think it's crap! I have no idea what you're talking about There was a video going around about the asteroids which just missed us by just a few miles...I mean one just shot by now It's bullcrap Okay hold on a second because i'm not..i've got no idea what your talking about some video let me just go to news dot google dot com and get and I just look for asteroid

3:11:19 And there's... Oh, I'm back. Apophis the most intimidating asteroid is coming for a visit which scientists were prepared for then there was Commodore Asteroid they've got this like four different sightings of asteroids here massive asteroid size of Chrysler building to pass Earth Asteroid double disaster struck Germany. NASA mission will zoom by asteroid before returning sample to Earth? I don't know, it just seems like there's a lot of... Well let's go with another one that has come out and got a bunch of ink. It wasn't an asteroid that killed the dinosaurs it was a comet!

3:12:10 Oh, you heard this one? No. No no not at all what's the analysis might be true it possibly was a comet little comet comes in and blasts us and knocks everything kills everything I think there's a movie or something coming out too many of these stories are coming out all at once we haven't you know these asteroid pass-bys are not new they happen all the time planet X yeah i think you're right let's take a look let's see asteroids Disaster movie, let's see. Are we right? Anything coming out I don't see anything yet Greenland review comet disaster movie with a surprisingly deep impact I'm looking for the trolls the trolls should know if this is coming Greenland it's yeah Greenland is a movie Gerard Butler so big enough to get this kind of promo

3:13:12 Pro was not that much. I mean, they've seen better It wasn't any the nightly news shows about the asteroids now when he shows up a nightly news and I'll know hmm There's no Bruce Willis on my coming out yeah it is Bruton Bruce will Get Bruce Willis back on an asteroid people let's do something about this shall we He's doing diehard battery commercials now Wasn't always doing those No, not that I remember. Die Hard used to be a Sears brand that was picked up by somebody else and sold at one of the auto supply companies. Anyway, I'm convinced there's something else going on here with this asteroid... A sudden burst of asteroid stories. Could be yeah. So other than that? Well if you want to go back stay in space we should do the story on our Mars rover

Mars Sample Return, Doctored Evidence Mix and Outro

The episode concludes with a discussion on the difficulty of returning Martian samples to Earth and a series of end-of-show mixes. These include the "Doctored Evidence" anthem, a "Dark Winter" montage, and the requested "Sharia Law" jingle. The hosts sign off from "Opportunity Zone 33" in Austin and Northern Silicon Valley, promising to return on Sunday.

3:14:19 Okay, you got only good coverage was on F France 24. Nobody's I mean there's too much freezing weather here for the networks to cover anything so they have to do a half and a half the show is on Texas and they have two shows on covid vaccines but let's listen to new Mars rover from France 24. Seven months after its departure from Earth NASA's latest Mars Rover Perseverance it's gearing up for an audacious landing attempt on the red final hours of the 470 million kilometer journey to our planet closest neighbor are famously perilous. NASA engineers say the touchdown should take place at around 10 p.m., French time, this Thursday with hopes the rover can send a first surface image of Mars shortly after. The goal of course is to collect promising samples in this

3:15:10 super clean tube and it's analogs of course the ones up there going towards Mars. And really collecting those samples as a first step of the most difficult missions or one of the most difficult missions ever undertaken It is, of course trying to make significant progress in answering one of the questions that has been with us for many centuries namely are we alone in the universe. Yeah, okay well Disclosure I don't understand the point of this super clean tube They're not sending these samples back that would be an admission that Chinese again somebody's gonna have to do that grab a bunch of Martian stuff and then ship it back And then now is yes some much something worth a lot of money

3:16:07 Thought that they already had some Martian dust don't we isn't that somewhere available somewhere already. How's that possible? I don't know I thought with didn't we sample something isn't something roaming around up there We've never it would never landed on that place. I'm not we've landed on there and this thing is roaming around But how do you get get home to email okay, maybe not tell you what well will contemplate it And then on Sunday will come back and we'll see if it's a movie or something that matters I'm leaning towards movie, i just haven't figured it out yet. Thank you all very much for producing episode 1322 the best podcast in the universe coming up we have well on the no agenda stream we have abs and a six-pack that's sir seat sitter with his david eich interview so you can listen to that end of show mixes we've got uh doug longenecker we've got us some professor jj in china with a homemade diddy
