About this episode

Muammar Gaddafi arrived in New York for the United Nations General Assembly with a security detail of 50 armed female bodyguards and an unsuccessful request to pitch his tent on Donald Trump's estate. The Libyan leader delivered a 90-minute address while the city transformed, including the conversion of Broadway into a pedestrian-only zone at Father Duffy Square. These geopolitical spectacles coincide with a domestic push for algae-based biofuels as Representative Tim Ryan claims a cross-country journey was powered entirely by pond scum.

VeriChip Corporation shares tripled following the acquisition of an exclusive license for implantable virus detection systems designed to identify H1N1 biological threats. In the United Kingdom, temporary amendments to the Mental Health Act now allow a single doctor to detain and medicate individuals who refuse flu vaccinations. Meanwhile, the Canadian government faced backlash for sending body bags to First Nations reservations in Manitoba as part of H1N1 flu kits. The Federal Reserve continues to monetize the debt by purchasing over half of all U.S. Treasury bills, despite Chairman Ben Bernanke previously signaling a different course for economic stability.

Adam Curry reports on the impractical design of the W Hotel Times Square where salad bowl sinks and dark hallways prioritize aesthetics over utility. The show acknowledges a bizarre coincidence in the value-for-value model as identical donations of $69.69 arrived simultaneously from listeners in Norway and Missouri. John C. Dvorak critiques the 5A5 Steak Lounge in San Francisco for its overpriced caviar shooters and lack of basic coffee service.

CHAPTER 02 / 28 Discussion

Boutique Hotel Design Flaws and Ad Week Attendance

A discussion of "boutique" hotel trends highlights impractical design choices such as salad bowl sinks, waterfall faucets, and intentionally dark hallways. The conversation notes that these trends originated in the 1980s with the Morgan and Royalton hotels.

01:30 So this is one of these boaty, boaty coattails. Oh Mr Curry! I don't think it's really so boutique at all It has you know 60 floors and you know so your roll up it was uh...I arrived late what was it Monday evening around 1130 my ass hurting from flying transatlantic and coach that was nice and What fun yeah, oh there's my opening right there So I so we roll up And it was like you know two goons to these goon standing outside with the with the black outfits on with a little Secure Secret Service type IFB earpieces. I just stand there looking at ya

02:21 You know, not like jumping out to great... Even though I don't even want them to carry my bags. Please! Don't bother me with that. They're just like... Couldn't even say good evening And this hotel you have to go in To the hotel you have to go into the 7th floor lobby Which makes so much sense The seventh floor lobby and then you come out of the elevators and it's lik a club It was like... and it's like you know really cool people all over the place you can hardly remember that lobby being on the seventh floor maybe a thing of a different dubia and uh... yet they need check-in and uh... and it is just loudness in this loud music and there are others are going to prove people around the lights at the end and then you have to go and then there's two elevator banks if you're going to uh... thirty third floor than you have to walk around the original elevator bank

03:19 and get on there. If not, you have to go around and behind that elevator bank to another elevator bank until you finally get up your room. Oh my god John! It's just one of those rooms ya know? With the salad bowl sink and the groovy lighting. Well, they've changed it now. They remodeled the rooms and so you got the salad bowl sink but if you want to close the stopper You have to reach around behind...they drilled like a hole into the paneling There's a little ball in the most illogical place in the world you have to pull up to open the stopper

03:56 it's just my favorite thing about those uh... stupid that bathrooms with a salad bowl sink uh... is the occasionally they gave me offset the uh... the faucet so if you come in here to rush in there too to reach your hands off issues return this did the faucet on he hits the sinking of slash curves out and splashes all over yet yes so that they have done something that now they have little shelf which is position uh... like a third of the way above the cell ball sink and then has a lever on the side which feels like it will snap off one of these days. And then the water comes out like a little waterfall, dude! And of course you can't figure out what's warm because this lever is kind of like a joystick but with... The stick is too long for joy so he swivels around It's stupid! This is just a stupid-ass hotel I hate this hotel These things all began in the 80s

04:54 with the Morgan Hotel and then the Royalton and some of these other places. But the Morgan was kind of cool in a way Yeah, it was very cool back in the 80's Exactly when it was cool to be like that That's 29 years ago but you're talking about... I know there must have been a spreadsheet program or something It goes like this yeah if you keep the hallways pitch black Then you'll save like a hundred thousand dollars a year in electrical. I mean there are some of these hotels where you literally, you need a flashlight to find your room! So now add on top of that there's a couple things going on in New York so I'm here for Ad Week which oh by the way reminder to myself I gotta be careful when I talk about sucking advertiser cock

CHAPTER 03 / 28 Discussion

Times Square Pedestrian Transformation and Father Duffy Square

New York City has converted several blocks of Times Square into a pedestrian-only zone, removing vehicle traffic from Broadway between 45th and 49th Streets. The area near the TKTS booth has been rebranded as Father Duffy Square, featuring new bleacher seating and massive digital displays.

times square· father duffy square· pedestrian plaza· tkts· new york city

05:46 because they actually listen to the show. I got a lot of comments, like hey what you here to suck some advertiser dick curry? It's like all right which is nice though because people are out there listening. I must have gotten ten people come up to me and talk to me about that so i'm in the middle of Times Square now times square by the way has changed dramatically for those who haven't been in New York for awhile They have now closed off from I think 40 well, yes about 45th Street to Almost 50th or 49th. It's now all pedestrian Yeah So where cars used to there'll be a split in the road and Broadway and I guess seventh right? Oh

06:34 Broadway and 8th I think would kind of split and go around one Times Square. And it was 7th, you're right. And yeah that was kinda part of the fun ya know? It's like if you wanted to walk around Times Square you had potential danger being run down by a speeding cab it was kinda what Times Square is all about so thats now all pedestrian. It's interesting because you know where TKTS which used to be this little dinky office right near the army recruitment office on Times Square for those of you who can recall from back in the day.

07:11 With TKTS is where you stand in line. There'd be thousands of tourists standing in line to To get theater tickets now that tickets yeah cheap tickets that still exists except now It's all like, you know multi window and and on top of TKTS they've built this Like bleachers but it I have to say it's kind of cool looking bleachers by the way, it's no longer Times Square its Father Duffy Square. What? Yes, this is... No! Yes father something Duffy and you know these bleachers it says right there it's just father Duffy square and there's a statue of uh There's like a cross on Times Square Dedicated to father I think Patrick not Patrick Duffy that would be Bobby Ewing from Dallas

08:01 Patrick Duffy Square. It is! Yeah, it's where Duffy was hit by a cab. So Patrick... Father Duffy? Someone in the chat room I'm sure can look it up at noagendachat dot com Well you know Times Square of course was named after The New York Times Right well then it makes sense they changed that since no one reads it anymore. It's pretty much defunct So it is kind of cool though, we sit on the bleachers. I mean it's amazing how we went from like... Remember that we had the Sony Jumbotron on one Times Square? I mean Times Square is basically one huge jumbotron! You're surrounded by amazing video and light displays and you know..I don't do drugs anymore but I could just imagine sitting there totally baked going like dude

08:50 And they had like a nice opera on one of the screens last night with opera music flowing over Times Square. So I can understand where that's kind of cool, but it really does mess up traffic." Because now you have to kind of go around that and you have to at least... Yeah, because that's one of the thoroughfares. Broadway in particular was a... You could hot rod it up and down from downtown to uptown rather nicely but now where do you go? No longer! And if you actually want to go anywhere in those streets the cab has to let you off two blocks before. And you can't cross town through that area now. Now add to that we have

Muammar Gaddafi UN Visit and All-Female Guard Detail

Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi arrived in New York for the United Nations General Assembly, making headlines for attempting to pitch a tent on Donald Trump's estate. His security detail, consisting of approximately 50 armed female bodyguards, drew significant media attention during his 90-minute speech.

This guy, he's got class man. Besides the fact that he is a murderer Well you know the funny thing about Gaddafi that is interesting if you want to look at it from a geopolitical perspective We haven't heard much about this guy until they released that character up in Scotland who was the bomber Not entirely true because his son who was just as

11:00 prick troublemaker living in Geneva who you know is like beating people up and abusing people and he was you know they threw they threw his kid in jail and Gaddafi said oh You better give me my son back or I'm going to bankrupt your whole country And they gave him back the guy. He has No, but I'm saying right now he's really playing it up a lot ever since you know Let me finish my freaking thought. Well you can if you want his bodyguards He has 50 hot looking I mean smoking hot-looking babes who are armed to the teeth in awesome cute Uniforms, I mean like completely did you get where your camera? Well, I have yeah, I have a picture for ya and

11:48 from the New York Daily News. I haven't seen it in person, and i've been sucking advertiser dick! Here's the... take a look at it. These babes are awesome! This guy has got his whole outfit is you know I'm sure Gucci makes it for him And he's got his rap, his poncho wrap around and he's got his little pillbox hat there. He's got these babes that have blue... Kind of dark blue camouflage outfits. I like the one with the red hats, the Red Beret girls Look how cute they are John! A couple of them are dynamite, they look like models They're smoking! They may not even be able to hold a weapon but who cares? They look hot And the guy gets on stage...I was watching the news he talked for 90 minutes and no one understands the bastard

12:45 You know, so it's all being translated. I always wonder about those translations by the way How do we know that what's being translated is correct? Even unless you speak the language you never do no But i think it'd be fun. You know, that's why John Stewart and these guys they just do phony translations which are just as good And probably better yeah So uh yeah, so it's a complete mess all the cab drivers are angry They hate it What do they hate? It's just money in their pocket. What are they complaining about? They can't get around, they can't do anything... I just hate it so everyone is kind of grumpy Well we have done some good business here Which is why put myself through this ordeal So anyway other than that what's New York

13:37 How's the weather? Is it muggy? Actually, it has been very nice. It has been kind of soothing. At the end of the day today got a little bit muggy but no...it is still New York! You love to hate it That's kind of the way it goes. It was a good place to avoid. Now, now John... No! It's alright. You can still... What I like about New York is everyone in New York for one reason and one reason only unless you're tourist is to get shit done and take someone else's money. And its clear and everybody knows it. And that what I like about it so great place to visit So there something we've been remiss

5A5 Steak Lounge Restaurant Review, San Francisco

A review of the 5A5 Steak Lounge in San Francisco critiques the establishment's "steak lounge" concept and high prices. Specific complaints include overpriced caviar shooters, a lack of a cappuccino machine, and inconsistent service, leading to a recommendation against visiting.

5a5 steak lounge· san francisco· restaurant review· kobe beef· truffle fries

14:21 concerning this show big time. We, show after show after show we have been putting off reviewing the last restaurant we went to and I believe you can't even remember the name of the place by now? It was uh 55 on 50 it was the steak lounge Well, you got that part right. It was 50 on fifth? 5A5. Ah see I was pretty close! 5A5 All right we can review that real quick if you want I think we got to get out of the way. We promised, about two weeks ago that we were going to review it on our next show and then nothing came of it and then we forgot about it! And as I was putting some clips together that we had forgotten...and I had forgotten the name of the place myself! And I realized we probably don't even remember what we ate

15:12 No, no wait a minute. I do remember because the waitress was hot... Well not really hot but she was... We forgot her name already it was Wendy or something How relevant is it? Here's what here's what I remember first of all nice ambiance the place turns into club apparently around 10 o'clock This used to be there previously known as Freeson and I guess they went through two changes and now it took a steak lounge as they call it in my son Rebuked me for even going to a place that would have such a trendy bogus concept It's kind of like the Supper Club but not without the lame entertainment at least the Supper Club in San Francisco and Yeah, it was alright. You know, the seating was nice. The ambiance was nice I like kind of the Contemporary look and feel of it with no walls of flames everywhere

16:05 Although it was kind of, you know what? It reminded me a bit the inside of a luxury yacht. Yeah it had that kind of cheesy quality Now I'm thinking back on it now didn't like it Well, let me... What started off as something we didn't like. First of all I remember the first waiter who sat us down he looked at us with his head cocked and i remember saying to you Oh yeah you were belly aching about that incessantly Yeah I don't like the way they look I don't like people standing infront of me with their head cocked He had kind of a menacing look And then he convinced us to have these shooters

16:51 And this was like a... It's not a shooter of alcohol, it is a shooter of gunk. Flavor! Flavor shooters and we opted for the caviar shooter which was 15 bucks a shot And if I could find three caviar eggs in there... It wasn't worth it. No, and the gunk wouldn't come out of the shot glass. Yeah it was terrible. It was just a bad joke. Bad joke on us haha! And uh...I remember we both had meat Yes, you had the buffalo filet. Oh yeah which was good I did like it. It wasn't stellar but it was okay. I questioned whether it was buffalo and then I had one of their, this is the best thing in the world a filet mignon on the bone Yeah you were not too happy about it I don't think Well then I realized that what I really disappointed with was that it was served with supposedly a bearnaise sauce

17:54 Well, I didn't think about it at the time to grouse about it at the moment. So I wasn't sitting there complaining to you but more I thought about and then later was this wasn't a bearnaise sauce by any stretch of imagination! If it was, it was broken. A bearnaise sauce should be like thick mayonnaise It's like richer than rich hollandaises is what amounts essentially... Kinda like snot Well, no. It's a little tastier. It's an egg, yolk butter, some shallot juice and some chervil and some other flavoring. And it was just runny! I mean, Bearnaise is not supposed to be like, you know...

18:43 whiskey it's not supposed to be running all over the place. It was ridiculous, it stunk and then they had you know then I had through a couple pieces of tarragon on top of the whole thing I guess didn't accentuate that flavor just there was something we liked very much. It was the fries we kind of liked it was the truffle fries. The meal overall and kinda greasy by the way but tasty Overall I think it was overpriced Because we had a bottle of wine to go with that. I think the bottle was, if I recall correctly $39 or 49 dollars which is on the lower end of the scale by our standards. It's around 50 bucks yeah. A little bit on the lower end and probably somewhere in the 50-70 range typically. Do you remember what it was?

19:28 I remember the wine, but not the price. uh... just two thousand five cabernet which is quite tasty yeah it was good and then of course the the let down at the end of the dinner was um... excuse me i really got a sense that you said to start this show next any complaint about my using a fork improperly yes i did notice i didn't say anything to when you again took your for clicker savage and jabbed into your meat on the bone holding it with your entire meeting needy fist

20:05 I didn't say anything about that. No, you're too busy belching! Yeah They didn't have a cappuccino machine which was weird You complained bitterly about this Our waitress...I think it was Wendy She said well you know I can only offer you regular coffee and then one of the owners came over or someone who said he was one of the owners Steve And I said, hey you know this place is alright. Except for your shooters were a jip! We actually told them they were a jip and they said what about the cappuccino machine? It's like well it cost $3000 and we really can't afford it right now. Oh wow...I feel kind of bad

20:46 Because they had just opened this was... They could afford all those flat panels and all the art, and the rest of it. And you can lease the machine! They had just done a soft launch which I also hate. Oh yeah? What does that mean? It's like a Silicon Valley thing or used to be a Silicon Alley thing in fact Yeah we're gonna be soft launching the website which means its shit and full bugs and doesn't fucking work So we're gonna just put it up there because we can't replicate our production environment from the live environment. We're gonna soft launch, that's what that means and so they just soft launch anyway was it was about it was expensive It was I think Close to $200 Yeah, it's too high yeah, I agree so anyway That's our restaurant review a 5a

21:40 And your first oh and they also have it's one of these places that has all these trendy bogus Beefs why yada? Why Zadda there's a bunch of these yeah, some folks only wonderful Kobe clones of some sort you know grown in Montana Hills and you know the beafer fed cognac and aperitifs and whatever right and this Ridiculous. Okay, so We're not going back. The no agenda recommendation is don't go there, it's not worth it and I wouldn't mind before our show was over giving a quick book review of the new Dan Brown novel which I finished on the way but let's do some clips John because you sent me a couple

Swine Flu Media Coverage and Cardiac Patient Risks

British researchers released a study linking the flu to increased risks of heart attacks, suggesting that 50% of unexpected flu deaths involve underlying heart disease. Media outlets are using these findings to urge cardiac patients to receive both swine flu and seasonal flu vaccinations.

swine flu· h1n1· heart disease· vaccinations· medical studies

22:23 Yeah, well first of all I might as well do the swine flu one so we can get back on track. Oh jeez I got so many yeah, I got so many swine flu Let's go on that track for just a while because every time I turn around they're coming up with some new sales pitch It's a new sales pitch to scare people cuz they get you know I think these guys are up to their ears and People are rejecting it and then nurses aren't don't want it to I mean that people were just This is going to cost somebody a bundle if they can't get people to take this shot. Let alone your life, if you actually take it but that's secondary Well the money is more important obviously So anyway here's the latest sales pitch from the station in Monterey Cal or Salinas

23:07 The what? Heart patient group. Yeah, the heart patients. Okay Mary thank you. A study just out says the flu is more dangerous than you think especially if you have chronic cardiac problems here's tonight key to health British researchers looked at 39 previous studies of patients and found strong consistent links between the flu and heart attacks Scientists say up to 50% of surprise flu deaths were due to heart disease. Health experts now saying it is critical for cardiac patients to be vaccinated for swine flu and regular flu. This, what a puker by the way! That guy's a puker. Listen to him puke! The flu is more dangerous than the flu. He's in a small market so he rented into that. There is a lot going on once again with swine flu

United Kingdom Mental Health Act Amendments for Vaccinations

The British government implemented temporary changes to the Mental Health Act, allowing individuals who refuse flu vaccinations to be detained. Under the new rules, only one doctor is required to section a patient and administer medication without consent, bypassing previous requirements for two medical opinions.

united kingdom· mental health act· vaccinations· detention· civil liberties

24:02 In the United Kingdom, I got a complaint on the email and it's kind of logical that since I'm in Gitmo Nation West so much that we miss a lot of what is going on in Europe. In the United Kingdom, the government has made a temporary change to the Mental Health Act which now allows people who refuse flu vaccinations to be detained as insane I'm quoting the temporary changes to the Mental Health Act as laid out in an unusually short consultation lasting just one month. So that is, you know it's like that's kind of how they do laws in the UK is like they say oh we're gonna change this law and then they do a consultation which means there's a website and then you can say Oh! I don't like it and then they ignore you and push the law through anyway

25:00 It would now only take one doctor rather than two to have a person sectioned and put on medication without their consent. The measures, sorry the JCD pronunciation. The measures could have a serious effect on the thousands of patients with psychiatric issues who currently live outside state care meaning they could just be detained against their own will on the word of just one health professional and so this is now apparently going to be used for people who don't want to be vaccinated. You're insane! One doctor can say and they can detain you and shoot you up anyway lovely

Canine Flu H3N8 and Massachusetts Vaccination Legislation

Reports indicate the H3N8 canine flu is spreading, leading to calls for pet vaccinations. Simultaneously, a proposed bill in Massachusetts would reportedly grant police the authority to enter homes and administer vaccinations without a warrant.

25:37 That's a good one. We need more laws like that here well, I've also Don't worry it's coming stand by no problem whatsoever They really must be desperate to sell some of this adjuvant adjuvanted stuff because now I'm seeing Let me find the link This is good. This is a report out of Chicago, gee no wonder it's from Chicago this the center of all things evil as if we didn't have to worry about the h1n1 virus now We have to worry about your dog The H3N8 canine flu is spreading! We have to vaccinate our dogs now

26:26 This is just out of control. And you know it's the same crap with a different label. You don't want to take it? Here, you should give it to your dog! It's just nuts! Yeah...it's nuts alright. It's nutso So I got this one here, Massachusetts bill will allow the police to break in and vaccinate without a warrant. Cool! Will they have those stormtrooper outfits on like they have at the airport in Singapore? No it'll be like that Ellie Gonzalez remember that? Oh yeah where they went to go get the kid and just busted in? Yeah coming loaded into the gills with a big machine gun pointed at the kids head

VeriChip Stock Surge and Implantable Virus Detection

VeriChip Corporation shares tripled in value following the announcement of an exclusive license for patents related to implantable virus detection systems. The technology aims to detect H1N1 and other biological threats within the human body, sparking concerns about surveillance and the "mark of the beast."

verichip· rfid· h1n1· stock market· biosensors

27:08 Now you laughed at me when I mentioned this a couple months ago and I told you that there was something fishy about Verichip. this is the company that has one if not the only patent to chip human beings and I was talking about you know the possibility of a RFID ink being used on people with his vaccination etc. Now Reuters is reporting the following, and you might want to take a look at the stock John while your added near in front of the computer CHIP, I love the fact that there's ticker symbol

You know it seems to me as though your body tells you when you have a virus. No! We need the chip now we need the chip it's only... John its only to detect the virus. It really is.

28:44 Well, you might be on to something with this company. I'll have to keep an eye on them Up 186% Monday's late afternoon trading You're kidding Yeah Go look at the chart I'm looking now and now you got my curiosity peaked And it is exactly... This is actually the company they either partnered with or acquired Receptors LLC who do the biosensors I told you this three months ago and you scoffed at me You did, you scoffed at me. No I was...I was...no this is impossible!

30:08 in some weird way and then kind of plateaus up a little bit and it sticks there for a minute, then it bounces up a little and then its skyrockets. Oh so the insiders knew it? Yeah the insiders knew it. Somebody knew something when you look at this thing is obvious. Alright let's take a look... we might as well do this John who was on the board who was on the board to this thing? Let's take a look corporate governance Wasn't this filled with Monsanto guys as well? I think it was. Margo is the... He's the key executives, the top guy is a guy named Scott Silverman is 44 he gets 1.45 million dollars for his pay For a company that had a 20 or 50 cents stock. Right they were selling for fifty cents a share so that tells you something

History of VeriChip and Applied Digital Solutions

VeriChip was established as a subsidiary of Applied Digital Solutions in December 2001, following the September 11 attacks. The company's origin is linked to New York firemen writing ID numbers on their bodies, which inspired the creation of implantable microchips for emergency identification.

30:55 These are the guys who are the officers but they don't have their backgrounds on this particular sheet. If you go to the... About Us, I'm looking at their website Yeah it'll be on there The roots of Very Chip trace back to the events of September 11 2001 when New York firemen were Writing their badge ID numbers on their chests in case they were found injured or unconscious. How? Gruesome is this that's what they founded the company out and someone said hey, you know what those dead firemen I got a good idea for a company you bastards you evil freaking bastards Yeah working closely with applied digital solutions now Digital Angel Corporation

CHAPTER 11 / 28 Discussion

CBS Promotion of Glenn Beck and Simon & Schuster

Katie Couric interviewed Glenn Beck on CBS Evening News to promote his new book, "Arguing with Idiots." The segment highlights a conflict of interest, as the book is published by Simon & Schuster, a subsidiary of CBS, effectively using the news broadcast as a corporate marketing tool.

33:31 Dude great company these guys can't be all bad. They can't really suck It could be wrong though anyway, we'll do some research and figure it out later Let's go to another unless you have some more swine flu news I want to I have a beautiful clip in the group there that is Well actually let's do the Glenn Beck one first Algae no the other one CBS yeah so i'm watching the cbs news with katie couric on and they tease and tease and tease the Glenn Beck, Glenn Beck, we got Glenn Beck at Katie Couric sits down with Glenn Beck blah blah blah. And by the way I picked up Time Magazine to read the article about him

34:11 Another jib that's another three bucks. I'll never get back what a stupid article It's like it's like useless information nothing in there at all Yes, lame promotion well So I listened to this you know you got it realize whoo? I'm gonna play the beginning of then you're gonna hear the music and then I just cut the interview out Of this clip because it's just a dumb interview. It doesn't go anywhere. What do you expect man? It's Katie Couric And so at the end of it, when she wraps it up you're going to hear the tease and then the wrap-up which by the way one other reason I cut out.

34:47 is seven and a half minutes later. What did they have in the interim? Commercials? No, it was a long boring discussion of promoting Glenn Beck and what a nice guy he is. CBS is promoting that Glenn Beck is a nice guy Yeah, I'm telling you Fox is run by Democrats as well. People laugh at me. Ready? Just play this here what you're gonna hear is her promote she's gonna tease it then there's gonna be a bunch of music and then didn't that cut all the rest of it out and then you're going to hear the end of it and at the end of It you're gonna know the reason why okay here we go yes evening news And coming up next tonight He uses his big voice he says to speak for the little people one-on-one with Glenn Beck

35:38 on this wrong he's the most talked about talker around stand up Glenn Beck's new book arguing with idiots is published by Simon & Schuster which is owned by CBS to see my complete conversation with Beck you can watch my new web show it's called at Katie Couric and you can find it at cbsnews.com next he's one of the most powerful members so she plugs the book to death Then, just kind of casually mentions that they own the book. Oh by the way we own it! And she plugs her website so they can milk the thing even more on her website So all the Glenn Beck nuts can go over to Katie Couric's website

CHAPTER 12 / 28 Discussion

Newspaper Bailouts and Journalist Subsidies in Holland

President Obama suggested the possibility of government bailouts for the struggling newspaper industry. This follows a model in the Netherlands, where the government has directly subsidized dozens of journalists to maintain media operations.

barack obama· newspaper bailout· netherlands· journalism· subsidies

36:18 Yeah, this is that's you know the only thing I really think Glenn Beck is right about Is that? This type of news is fringe media And yeah, I bet you if you go to the office and by the way half the offices out with swine flu have you noticed that Seriously tell ya Nick Nick came in today and he had a knee lift. He looked like crap! I told him, yeah... You look like crap warmed over Yeah and i talked to him on the phone he's like oh man it can't keep anything down don't worry you know as i made a couple calls just make sure everything is running okay and made some people do stuff and said dude just stay home you'll be better by the end of the week and of course nicky has got a promotion everything is like uh... come in

37:04 and he's swine flu but half the office is literally out with swine flu. So, well that's kind of funny I thought when you talk to him because after you talked to him he came in and licked all the utensils and cups and stuff No but half the office is sick But if you were to ask the rest of people who are actually there If they saw this interview with Katie Couric They would say no because nobody watching this shit anymore Nobody watching this dumb television And nobody reading these dumb newspapers except the news media themselves they're like turds twirling around in a pot just going like, hey look at that turd. Hey look at that turd. That turd stinks more than this turd. Circling the ball as it were. And now with our lovely president he said... I know i saved the link somewhere He says you know we really should consider bailing out newspapers. Like what?

37:57 Yeah, that's what we need to do. We need to have the government give the media money! Didn't they do that in Holland? Oh yeah well they did it even one step better I think they put 60 journalists are now subsidized so the journalists directly are somehow subsidized oh yes it's crazy and you think that's nuts You and I have talked many times about the FDIC being pretty much a Ponzi scheme, and non-existent i.e., bankrupt. Now the FDIC is the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation

CHAPTER 13 / 28 Discussion

FDIC Funding Crisis and Bank Lending Proposals

The FDIC is considering a plan to borrow billions of dollars from healthy private banks to replenish its insurance fund, which has been depleted by a wave of bank failures. Critics argue this creates a circular financial logic where taxpayer-funded banks lend money back to the government with interest.

fdic· banking crisis· federal deposit insurance corporation· interest rates· bank failures

38:44 And the dealio there is when your bank goes belly up, and they did up this. It was originally $100,000 now I believe it's $250,000 worth of your deposits are guaranteed by the government so that government says don't worry about it you're covered we'll take the bank down So this is from The New York Times and if you caught this article John something We should definitely talk to our buddy about but now there is talk of the FDIC borrowing money from banks in order to shore up their position. Now the way it works, as I understand it is every single bank has to pay a certain amount of insurance money into the FDIC so they're basically buying insurance and its mandated. You can't get around it now of course the government actually be saving this money in a big cookie jar incase these banks go belly up so they actually have the money but they don't have it because we know that we don't have trillions of dollars so there's no money

39:49 and uh... here it is a senior regulators say they are seriously considering a plan to have the nation's healthy banks lend billions of dollars to rescue the insurance fund that protects bank depositors That would enable the fund which is rapidly running out of money because of a wave bank failures to continue to rescue the sickest banks. But isn't this our money that we already gave the banks in the first place? Why didn't we give it to the FDIC instead of the banks? So, so...so we gave money to the banks and now the banks are gonna let us... they're getting that for no interest free

40:26 And now they're gonna take that money and gonna make interest off of us by lending it back to us in case the smaller banks, which of course the big banks are totally in the business of putting out a business to acquire. Now they can make money off our money lending it back to us this is crazy! It's fucking crazy! I don't understand it Yeah, well nobody does. That's the idea I can tell you this much somewhere a lot of money hits the floor or the ground and it gets picked up by someone Well here is another thing i don't understand John This is... And I keep seeing this on television I keep seeing it being explained over and over again and again something I was scoffed at not by you but other people when I said that the Federal Reserve was going to be buying our treasury bills

CHAPTER 14 / 28 Discussion

Federal Reserve Debt Monetization and Economic Stability

The Federal Reserve announced it would maintain current interest rates, claiming the economy has stabilized. However, the Fed is now purchasing more than half of all U.S. Treasury bills, a practice known as monetizing the debt, which Chairman Ben Bernanke previously suggested would be avoided.

federal reserve· ben bernanke· treasury bills· debt monetization· interest rates

41:16 And people are like, oh you idiot this is very normal we buy the treasury bills. But apparently the Federal Reserve which has the right to print money our money is buying more than half of the Treasury bills so isn't that like more turds spinning in a bowl? That's how you stabilize the economy and as you can tell it stabilized It's stable. Yeah, that's what they said today the Federal Reserve did say hey economy stable Okay, and did you see I was watching CNBC? I'm taking a crap and I watching CNBC and they're all talking about it You know They've got the the octabox They got eight guys in a box on the screen And then all of sudden they actually break into the newscasts where producer comes over going

42:08 Federal Reserve says no rise in interest rates. Everything is stable all as well Go back to your homes watch television and enjoy life don't forget to shop that's a good voice Thank you, let me let me just let me mark that I'm gonna use that as the opening for the show That was a good one So, but I believe that is called monetizing our debt and I believe that Bernanke said we would never do that. And of course he's lying. Well you know a foolish consistency as Emerson once said is the hobgoblin of small minds Right okay another person... You can go to The Office and ask anyone who was Emerson let's see how many people know they answered to that one

CHAPTER 15 / 28 Discussion

Congressional Algae Fuel Claims and Tim Ryan

During a late-night C-SPAN session, Representatives Tim Ryan and John Bocieri promoted the cap-and-trade bill and the potential of the algae biofuel industry. Ryan claimed to have driven a car from California to Washington D.C. powered by algae, asserting that CO2 can be used to grow the fuel in states like Ohio.

tim ryan· john bocieri· algae biofuel· c-span· congress

42:59 Yeah, no I mean just...I don't know what to tell you. Okay You want to go to...I got one more clip and then we're gonna be done with clips Then you can do your clips if you have any No I uh..uh.... I'm the Clipmeister I've been working! You know what i've been doing here? Yeah as you say So anyway so I figure I'm tuning on C-SPAN It is 10 o clock Eastern Time live from the Congressional floor We have two bonehead House of Representative guys from Ohio and I believe that they were both drunk.

43:40 And Tim Ryan is the one of them and John Bocieri is the other one. They were tag teaming, and then Ryan would blather on about something for a while then Bocieri would pick it up and he'd refer back to the other guy... After they were done there was an hour going back-and-forth and back-and-forth that Republican came up and just poo-pooed everything they said but But it was funny listening to the guy who looks bored stiff running Congress at 10 at night you know slamming down the other. I give the representative from Georgia three hours." No, he didn't really say that did it? I swear to God if it was an hour... Three hours?! It may have been three hours but it was like an hour or some ridiculous amount of time. He would-I have it on tape but anyway so just like you know normally it's like five minutes five minutes during the regular thing but it's like he's got an hour you know so he goes up there and yaks away there's nobody in the place except these guys

44:36 They said, well they... let's say I'm not going to accuse them of being drunk because I don't want to slam it. That's alright! I will, I will. They were sloshed. Right? I think that they were tired. Okay extremely tired and they needed to go to a spa So I picked up this little gem right in the middle of Tim Ryan's These guys are promoting the cap-and-trade and how we gotta save America cause its about jobs jobs jobs Jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's vote for jobs! So now I have the greatest clip I've ever caught ever. Is that your setup? Just play it What we're doing here with the folded General Motors With the new battery storage The hybrids We drove in a car the other day Congressman Inslee and Israel and I Went from California

45:34 to Washington DC on algae. On algae, you know how you grow the algae? You pump a bunch of CO2 in it and it grows the algae so here you have an opportunity to learn make cars that run on algae grow the algae in places like Ohio that Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately at some point give off all this co2 grow the algae put it in cars and We have a clean economy. We're safe We are completely saved there is nothing wrong all as well ladies and gentlemen Oh yeah You know what we do here on no agenda our formula is this? We go out we hit people in the mouth

46:24 And we drive from California to Washington DC on algae! I was... my jaw hit the floor. Well it is true though, and the algae is a great source of like diesel fuel you know? You can totally burn algae. I don't know about if you have to pump CO2 into it but just that whole quote was like the world is saved everything's fine we're gonna live. Algaecars! Algae. And I like the thing you could grow, we could grow algae here in Ohio! Yeah well i think it's growing there already buddy Let's grow...I'm growing it in my fish tank, I need more algae for my moped Oh my god What a couple of dingbats Yeah uh It's just beautiful Well Of course We would never run for any type of office so You gotta give them some props for doing it They're representing our country and the algae industry

47:18 I love it. Special interest Hey, we should invest in algae Is there any company we can invest in that makes algae? No There's nothing...I don't know what he is talking about to be honest about it Oh! I've read that algae... I don't know of any algae engines Yes yeah sure there are Yeah right Dude Google it Algae...is it A-L-G-A-E? I don't know You're not doing the research Algae biofuel successfully tested in clean green cyclone engine In 2008. It's real! Yeah, yeah... I mean you don't get any horsepower out of it? I'm sure you don't get anything out of it probably stinks when it burns We told on this show what NASA was up to and of course here is the... Oh by the way this stock that listed the cyclone power technologies in the pinks CYPW for you investors looking for these LG engines It's a penny stock

Orgone Research and Wilhelm Reich Accumulators

A brief discussion covers personal research into Orgone energy, a concept developed by Wilhelm Reich. The conversation touches on the construction of Orgone accumulators and experimental observations regarding temperature changes in small metallic enclosures.

orgone energy· wilhelm reich· accumulator· pseudoscience· research

48:18 Yeah, it's right up there with Orgone engines. I think they'd run on or how's your orgone project coming by the way? Actually, um, uh, I'm amassing research It's gonna be my post my post company project since if ever quit if ever quit this damn company Then I'm gonna just continue on my organ Research I have a shower. I think that That actually is a fine or go and accumulator My shower upstairs? The shower in the... Soon to be demolished loft. Yeah, I think it actually is an accumulator of orgone energy You should stand there sometime naked It could be and like i said you know if you mix different kinds of cloths or stick your finger in a coke can And I don't know how many people have tried this but your little finger will go into the hole

49:11 You'll feel how warm it gets. Okay, that's the new opening quote of the show! Your little finger actually will go in the hole. Chauncey Dvorak September 23rd 2009 I think your voice thing is better because of the shopping thing NASA says it has successfully launched a rocket...in Virginia? I didn't know they had a launch pad in Virginia Did you? No never heard such a thing Of course Virginia where all the spooks are This is according to AP. We told you this two weeks ago on the show, successfully launched a rocket in Virginia as part of an experiment and the blast may have caused dozens of people to report seeing strange lights in the sky The space agency said it launched the Black Brant 12

NASA Rocket Launch and Artificial Clouds in Virginia

NASA successfully launched a Black Brant 12 rocket from Wallops Island, Virginia, to create an artificial cloud in the upper atmosphere. The experiment, intended to study noctilucent clouds, resulted in reports of strange lights in the sky as far north as Boston.

We told you this two weeks ago on the show, successfully launched a rocket in Virginia as part of an experiment and the blast may have caused dozens of people to report seeing strange lights in the sky The space agency said it launched the Black Brant 12

49:56 On Saturday evening, to gather data on the highest clouds in the Earth's atmosphere about the time of launch dozens of people in Northeast started calling local television stations to report seeing strange lights. The calls came as far away as Boston which is about 380 miles northeast at a launch site and here it comes! The rocket is designed to create an artificial cloud NASA hopes the experiment will provide information on the formation and properties of noctilucent clouds which occur at high altitudes. This is that crappy, they're spraying shit in the atmosphere oxide to make clouds and it can be seen as far away as Boston because this is a huge cloud they've created and shot up from Spook Central Virginia!

50:41 I don't like the sounds of this story. Let me see, space station... no not space uh launch pad Virginia? I didn't know they could launch rockets from Virginia! Well you know maybe they have a secret pad somewhere. I mean i don't think this was a big rocket I think this is like one of those backyard rockets that just goes up real far okay It wasn't like, you know a Russian rocket or anything. Rocket launcher... Check this out! Spaceports? Oh look! Dirt turned for new Virginia launch pad US Senator Barbara Mikulski told over 100 attendees in New Middletown... Huh?! Here from 2006 the Minotaur rocket makes sunrise launch from Virginia That's off the Wallops Islands

51:34 So they're not launching it from, you know, downtown. They've got some wires hooked up to a car battery like launch! I used to love those i had some model rockets that used to launch and I loved that. That was cool anyway I don't like it either. It's the Virginia Spaceport. Yeah... it's not a good idea. Why are they doing it there? Was there some Well, that's a question. It is pretty fancy looking rig this is not a small-time operation This has got the big you know that big giant thing You put next to the rocket to hold it in place that kind of thing yeah Yeah, they sent up a satellite the gensat one research craft right so that's 2000 That's a serious pad if you can launch a satellite into orbit you've got a serious rig yes for sure They sent up tech sat 2

52:33 Future military sales is a military launching thing. Is they're trying to keep it? Secret, you know people watching but I it's not a NASA site It's the spaceport But it's not a NASA thing and now they're making it look like NASA's doing it It's the US Naval Space Command that's doing this shit This is not a research project This is this is like You know another we're on two chemtrails are like oh yeah, you think you think you know what chemtrails are take this bitch And they shoot that thing up there and float this huge oxide layer over us without asking I might add. That's not okay, it's just not okay! I'm against that It's sketchy...I think we need to look into it more what's the point? It's pointless Well that's all I got this week Oh okay well I got a couple other things

CHAPTER 18 / 28 Discussion

Barack Obama Appearance on Late Show with David Letterman

Barack Obama became the first sitting U.S. president to appear as a guest on a late-night talk show when he visited David Letterman. The appearance sparked debate regarding the dignity of the office and the physical staging of the interview, where the guest chair is traditionally lower than the host's.

barack obama· david letterman· late show· television· presidency

53:26 I did watch it by the way for the Sunday show, I should mention. I do have some Obama clips off of Letterman. Obama is a laugh riot he may be the funniest president ever. Yeah, I purposely have not looked at any of the clips yet. I was actually hoping you could have some clips for today's show Well, I couldn't and didn't have time to get them together but the fact of the matter is that guy's funny But he'll be funny on Sunday too You know, I was actually considering that as hip as this president is and that's the part that i actually like about him because he is funny. He has a great demeanor you know? He's very comfortable in front of cameras with or without teleprompter he can tell a good joke and he's snappy

54:03 But then you know, you kind of got to expect for a guy who goes on every single freaking show that's available on Sunday. Goes on the Letterman Show... You know so don't people understand that yeah a guy like that is going to get heckled in Congress? It's like yes someone might yell out something but it's not why does this have to be such Someone said something about the president, someone interrupted him. But in the meantime he's doing all kinds of stuff that is unprecedented I can't remember many other presidents going on letterman No, actually he's the first sitting president that has ever been on a TV talk show. Ever! Yeah so you know there is a whole bunch of firsts does that not demean the office of the President? Does it not lower himself? And he has to sit in that short chair by the way The short chair that guests sit in and TV talk shows people out there don't know this The guest chair is down about 2-3 inches below the host chai

55:02 And so there's always a balance of the host looking down and managing the show, but everybody...the guests are all down. They're down low. So you have the President of United States who is a tall guy because when they two stand next to each other Obama 6'4", 6'5". Letterman is not a short guy but he's like still shorter than Obama. So the president was subservient to him? Yeah! Because that's how those sets were established. That's how the talk show system works yeah Over in Europe, we haven't talked about it much. The Lisbon Treaty they're going to try it again you remember that Ireland said no and of course all of the member states of the European Union have to say yes and I just want to remind folks when we have talked about this over a year ago I read the Lisbon Treaty which is a whole bunch of references to all these side letters essentially

CHAPTER 19 / 28 Discussion

Lisbon Treaty and Irish Corporate Lobbying

Ireland faces a second vote on the Lisbon Treaty in October after previously rejecting it. Major corporations like Ryanair and Intel are spending heavily to promote a "Yes" vote, allegedly motivated by the preservation of Irish tax breaks rather than European integration.

55:02 And so there's always a balance of the host looking down and managing the show, but everybody...the guests are all down. They're down low. So you have the President of United States who is a tall guy because when they two stand next to each other Obama 6'4", 6'5". Letterman is not a short guy but he's like still shorter than Obama.

55:58 And just some of the basics are if this thing is ratified, then European law goes into effect. There can be a European army if you're deemed mentally insane or you have a contagious disease like let me think what's a contagious disease that you might get? Oh yeah swine flu you can be incarcerated against your will. They say, well you have a right to life except if you run away from police officers trying to arrest you and they shoot you it will be deemed illegal kill so there's all these like little tricks of the of the trade that are baked into this thing and so Ireland said... Baked? Yeah, Ireland said no we don't want that. No way! And then of course the European Union went okay well that's not good let's have a do-over We've got to have another vote this is no good. We need a yes vote So ummm.. That's coming up in October it's coming very soon The Yes Camp, which is of course a huge lobby to get Ireland now to vote YES

57:00 is under huge attack as the funding for the promotion of yes has been astronomical Ryanair Intel Lobbyists all under fire for camp campaigning with what they're calling obscene amounts of money. They are pouring on the heat Wait, wait hold on stop Why would Intel or Ryanair for that matter, or any of these other companies care so much about what difference does it make to them? Oh because they've been promised all kinds of tax breaks. Ireland is a huge tax break company. So Michael O'Leary the head of Ryanair... Tax breaks! That's it. Hmm, tax breaks The head of Ryanair announced that the low-cost airline would spend 500 thousand euros promoting a yes vote

57:46 Ryanair paid for a full-page advertisement in the biggest selling Irish daily newspaper advertising that proclaimed 1 million reasons to vote yes to Europe, one million free seats. Vote Yes To Europe! That's my old promotion there. So you give away a million free seats? Bullshit read the fine print Intel has Apple produces computers over there they're all over there for the tax break so that's why They all want tax breaks so that you know they don't give a shit if the Europeans kill each other or they shoot their citizens, arrest them unlawfully. They just wanna make money! Yeah yeah vote yes! Yay! Vote Yes we Don't Care! Vote Yes We Don't Care! Your government which wants to run health care for you... That was funny I was out drinking with some of the advertising people which is when you really do business by the way

Cash for Clunkers Dealer Reimbursement Issues

The "Cash for Clunkers" program has left thousands of car dealerships waiting for government reimbursements. Due to the overwhelming volume of applications, the government had to reassign FAA employees to process forms, leaving many dealers with significant financial shortfalls.

cash for clunkers· car dealerships· rebates· faa· government spending

58:42 And around two o'clock they started talking about health care and I excused myself. I said, hey job! Two o'clock in the afternoon? No in the evening...in the morning. I'm like oh would you look at the time I gotta go home. Like I do not want to get into this because no one will ever work with me ever again if I get started. Yep. A wise decision. Yes Cash for Clunkers program Hey it's fucked up guess what who would have imagined It looks like there could be hundreds if not thousands of dealerships who essentially have footed the bill for, you know. The idea was if you buy a certain type of vehicle which was more environmentally friendly, you brought in your quote clunker and you would get $4500 off the price of your new vehicle. And so the dealers had to basically sell the car take the 4500 off this sticker price or whatever the negotiated price was fill out some forms send the forms in there they'll get their four and half grand back

59:43 Well, guess what? The response was so huge that the government actually had to bring people from the FAA into process some of these forms because it was just... they ran out of their billion dollars in like a week and then they poured another two billion dollars. They don't actually know how many of these four-and-a-half thousand dollar rebates or free money was given away and it looks like thousands of dealerships are gonna be stuck with tens or thousand, maybe even hundreds of thousands dollars worth rebates that the government's not going to pay for. Does this surprise you? Well I just want everyone to hear it because this kind of shit is never reported on the real news. Now the story's over there's no reason report this anymore moving along move ahead nothing to see here... Nooo, I'm not even gonna play the jingle You should In uh.. The Netherlands

Netherlands Pedestrian Breathalyzer Proposal

Dutch Home Affairs Minister Guusje ter Horst proposed introducing breathalyzer tests for pedestrians in popular nightlife districts. The measure aims to reduce alcohol-related violence, but critics argue it is a tool for police extortion and unnecessary social control.

netherlands· amsterdam· breathalyzer· guusje ter horst· public intoxication

1:00:41 which is the beta test ground for all of Gitmo Nation. Home Affairs Minister Hüsche ter Horst feels it's necessary to introduce breathalyzer tests for pedestrians. What? Yeah, breathalyzer tests for pedestrians in popular nightclub areas to cut down on alcohol-related crime and violence What, some guy walking down the street and they make you take a breathalyzer? No no! You walk out of the club and they'll make you take a breathalyzer. Well yeah I just came out of the club and i'm walking can you give me a freaking break

1:01:18 So yeah. I went to you know, I went to Queens Day and everybody's drunk! Yeah that's the whole point so what is it a point of these breathalyzer tests? Everybody's drunk so what are you doing? What are you accomplishing? You give them a ticket for being publicly drunk in Amsterdam? Yeah yeah in Amsterdam of all places they'll give you tickets. Oh yeah now it's crazy. What does the ticket say? If you were drunk pay us money Yeah, that's what it is about. Is there going to be some sort of a limit? Like a legal limit I mean with driving you can have certain amount of alcohol in your system but once you go over the legal limit then you can get arrested is there gonna be the same as for driving? That's a very good point!

1:02:10 I'm sure there will be. There'll be some kind of... but it's like you're coming out of a club, they're gonna stand and say, oh yeah, you're coming out the club did you have anything to drink? Uh, yeah that's why i was like in the club. You know this sounds like it, you know what this sounds like the basis for corruption to me and the corruption in this case would be the club has to buy off the cops to keep people from standing out in front or the cops to try and extort money from the club. They have a bunch of them that go around some clay, you haven't coughed up your dole here so we're going to have two cops out in front and everyone goes ins and outs is gonna have a breathalyzer test how'd ya like that? It could be it could be that but I think its more just stupidity No I think its just you citizen You're my slave shutup im wearing uniform or shutup or ill breathalyze you

Canadian Swine Flu Kits and First Nations Reservations

The Canadian government faced criticism after sending H1N1 flu kits containing body bags to First Nations reservations in Manitoba. Additionally, officials reportedly withheld alcohol-based hand sanitizers from the shipments due to concerns about substance abuse on the reservations.

canada· first nations· swine flu· body bags· david butler-jones

1:02:56 I mean, this is just more control over people. I do have a quick swine flu thing out. I'd be amazed if you didn't blog this particularly because the picture on this news story from this Dr David Butler Jones looks kind of like he'd be related to you that's kinda funny it looks just like you only with little more hair He's from Canada Hey No no i'm not being mean Yeah, you might have heard about this so they had they sent up these link. Yeah So they they sent these swine flu kits up to the

1:03:41 Whether you know that well, what's the word I'm looking for? You tell me about the Indian Reservation. Yeah bags yeah the body bags yeah I said there I know that Canadians are all bent out of shape about this because they sent them they've sent up these These kits, you know so if you guys get something like me I don't have a mustache and I don't have that kind of a grimace he could be related to you or And look at, he's standing in front of the fightflu.ca flag that's kind of cool Yeah so they a part of these kits they sent up body bags Hey if you guys get swine flu here are some body bags enjoy Good luck have fun! and then apologizing for it and also was it that they didn't send up something contained alcohol because they were afraid that they would drink it

1:04:35 Oh yeah, the Indians as soon as they see alcohol they drink it. Yeah what was it that didn't want anyone to send up like disinfectant or something? Or mouthwash? I don't know. They figure the Indians will drink it. As if the Indians can just buy alcohol! It's not like you're an Indian in Canada or in United States up in these areas... You're an Indian and fine but you have a driver's license so you walk into a store and buy alcohol But I guess they perceive the Canadians perceived these guys as such luscious. I think that's the don't drink anything Don't send them any Listerine up there that reservation Crazy Indians will just drink it you want another 18 million dollar website we haven't talked about yet

FCC Net Neutrality and OpenInternet.gov Launch

FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski launched OpenInternet.gov to promote net neutrality regulations. While the initiative claims to prevent ISP discrimination against content, critics point to language allowing for "reasonable network management" as a loophole for censorship and traffic sniffing.

fcc· julius genachowski· net neutrality· openinternet.gov· broadband

1:05:15 Yeah, go to this one open internet.gov This is uh...this is actually quite frightening it's still in beta Let me see if I can get this to play with our connection here because the hotel connection isn't all that awesome Thank you, here it is Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission only one channel Julius Jenikowski, that's kind of lame. Here is what interesting the FCC post their first video on there openinternet.gov website and it is left channel only. Hey way to go guys! Broadcasters? Open internet dot gov The Internet is the most transformational communications breakthrough of our time It has become essential for the fabric of daily lives of Americans

1:06:07 The internet has been an extraordinary platform for innovation, economic growth and opportunity. It has unleashed the potential of entrepreneurs who leverage the launch and growth of small businesses across America. The key to the internet's success has been its openness." So this is the openinternet.gov and if you look at read the speech, because he's the chairman not going to play the whole speech for you but this is about net neutrality. Thank You

1:06:44 So he's going into this, the whole speech is about you know of course it should be net neutrality everyone you shouldn't be filtering any type of traffic there should be no discrimination of what type of traffic is running through an ISP lines but of course at every turn in this speech he saying but of course and ISP should have the right to manage their network Because if they need to manage their network, it might have to push some types of traffic down. This is a very dangerous outfit the FCC and now they're getting... Since when is the internet the FCC's domain?

1:07:28 But they are now going to come in and they're gonna create regulations. And these are the guys that are gonna regulate the internet, and essentially take it away from us. This is their setup. You should read through this speech at opainternet.gov or if you're lazy go ahead and just watch it on his one channel only YouTube video On his beta site. We're in beta, but we'll be launching more initiatives on the site soon. We're in beta! Here's the fifth principle of non-discrimination. The fifth principle is one of non discrimination stating that broadband providers cannot discriminate against particular internet content or applications

1:08:14 This means they cannot block or degrade lawful traffic over their networks, or pick lawful traffic. Okay? So that means you're going to have to sniff it I mean it's all in here right You can just see what they're doing Lawful traffic What is lawful traffic okay All traffic is lawful It's... So I think we should start reading that We should declare that the last 20 years was the golden age of porn. It's all over, it's all over that's right they cannot disfavor an internet service just because it competes with a similar service I'm looking for the oh is like here

1:08:52 This principle will not prevent broadband providers from reasonably managing their networks. During periods of network congestion, for example it may be appropriate for providers to ensure that very heavy users do not crowd out everyone else like BitTorrent users And this principle will not constrain efforts to ensure a safe, secure and spam-free internet experience. I don't want a safe, secure, spam free internet experience! I want porn...I want pop ups.. I want all kinds of viruses that's what makes the Internet cool!! I don't want it to be safe! Is that too much to ask? No you know what i mean and I don't want this douchebag look at him!!! I don't want this douchebag to be determining what is safe

1:09:42 Well, there's been some talk for a while about the FCC trying to make it seem as if... you know the FCC is always broadcast-oriented. I mean they have all the rules that say why can't have costume malfunction on the Super Bowl and things like that. The FCC will fine you when they control this and they license various channels radio stations in TV stations and has always been kind of A subtext, and a lot of it was done by some of the Republicans actually. That maybe the FCC should be more involved in the internet because you have videos on the internet and also get them more involved in cable TV. Because cable TV is always on its own. It could do whatever it wanted. It could have the Playboy channel or movies where people cussed

1:10:31 yes i could do all these things without worrying about the fcc finding that you can't cuss on broadcast exactly john so this show where and i've cost quite a bit on the show or have said some words that would be deemed inappropriate by the fcc will not be lawful traffic anymore i mean who's how does this douche bag to tell anyone they can listen to this show because the words coming my amada my mouth translate into yeah unlawful traffic that's where we're headed. Dvorak dot org slash blog is filtered out already in every single library and high school in the country because of the word uncensored you know screw that hands off yep you've made your point and I'm on your side on this one okay well on that note, We spent uh... Where else can people tune into get this kind

Book Review of The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown

A review of Dan Brown's novel "The Lost Symbol" highlights its exploration of Masonic history and the architectural symbolism of Washington D.C. The book is described as a fast-paced "page-turner" that offers a unique perspective on religion and ancient mysteries.

dan brown· the lost symbol· freemasonry· washington dc· book review

1:11:25 charge debate even though there's no debate there. Now, there is no debate... Wait a minute before we do that hey I just want to say i read this book The Lost Symbol Dan Browns new novel I finished it on the airplane ummm....I like it! Let me just say why? You know what when Osama Bin Laden puts it on his Osamas book list then everyone will be talking about it right but let me talk about at first before Osama puts it on his list. I like it for a number of reasons, one Masonic history is interesting It's just one of those things particularly all the symbolism in Washington DC. It's just interesting because most people know so little about their country about the capital certainly about architecture and I don't even know if this is taught anymore in schools

1:12:15 There's a little bit of history. They don't even teach how to balance the checkbook in schools anymore! So there is some history in here that I think people will just find interesting to read, the story itself... ok so it's another quest for this lost mysteries and knowledge of the universe and I'm not going to spoil the book by telling you the ending but the ending actually does make you go huh It makes you think a little bit, it makes you think about religion from a different slant. And actually John in a way all relates back to Orgone and Wilhelm Reich's

1:12:55 studies, there's some of that in there. I didn't see that coming! No, and the last 30 pages is just like oh okay...I kind of like how that ended up and you sit there think huh? That's very interesting i'm not going to say anything else about because it would spoil the ending of the book Not bad quick read definitely a page turner It's little bit too big in the hardbound version. It's too big to carry around on the airplane. Clunky Yeah, it is clunky So there you have it I'll put it to you this way, where else can you get a review about a restaurant that you definitely don't want to eat at and a book that you don't want to carry around? You can't get that on any other type of program but this one my friends. And also the algae car which goes from Sanford...

Listener Donations and Random Number Theory

The show acknowledges various financial contributions from listeners worldwide, noting several "palindrome" and "Masonic" donation amounts. A notable coincidence occurred when two identical donations of $69.69 arrived simultaneously from Norway and Missouri, cited as an example of random number theory.

1:13:45 Have you know what that kind of a drive is? That's like a six day drive. It's ridiculous drive! On algae, on algae no less With three guys in the car farting I mean come on Anyway, I'm here in a hotel room in the middle of Times Square. It's we're going on 11 o'clock in the evening We've we've kept to our schedule. We keep our promises because I'll be on an airplane tomorrow during our regular Broadcast time it's me Oh and it's important that this show gets out on time if we can't make it we do it a day earlier Instead of a day later were dedicated to this shit And we don't play ads so right because we would be corrupted in a minute

1:14:28 So let's thank a few people that gave us some money over the last... and I have a very, couple of interesting anomalies this week. One is like it just made me blink. Okay? Spongberg Enterprises in Alberta gave us 50 bucks which we appreciate Jeff Syk S-I-E-K I think it's syke could be seek in Solvang gave us $51.15 which is a palindrome Yes Terry Love in London, England gave us $81.87 which I'm sure means something. Yeah which means she only had to spend 10 quid. Joshua Puchalski in Nattock Massachusetts gave us $77.30 which he did send me an email explaining... Yeah isn't that a Masonic number? Of some sort yeah what did he explain it

1:15:22 He sent me a letter explaining it and of course now that I think about it, didn't make a note. 7733 is a Masonic number. It's all over the internet. No, there's 7730. Oh 30! And I think it has...it was codes. It's binary for something. One of those crazy computer gags. Oh okay cool well next time. Joshua will get that. Get the email. Nah, it gets in there. We're telling people to put it in the comment box and then you're forgetting to extract it Tony Bevins in Vicksburg, Mississippi. We finally got our Mississippi listener. Isn't that interesting? $50

1:16:03 And then Mark Koolen, and he's in the Netherlands ke u le n I think is a way how it spelled colon colon colon and with ease in which widget WI JD e NES spell it slower w IDJ what? WI JW ij yeah D. E. Nes guidance Vidon's and ES Yeah. W I J D and then what? E N ES. Yeah, guidance. Okay. Could have known that in Holland he gave us 60 bucks which i guess was uh 10 euros um or just a sprinkling of gold just a sneeze in an envelope but that's worth 60 bucks yeah

1:16:55 And then cordlesshead.com from North Las Vegas gave us $50 and 9 cents, and the nine cents was to remind me to say Andrew says Trisha congratulations for winning an Emmy the other day Oh wow excellent yeah one of our board members won an Emmy Ted Leonsis He did? For what? Yeah he did a documentary Hmm. Yeah, he won an Emmy for it He was very proud did he get the big Emmy or the little one? No, he got I it's funny you say that cuz the first thing I said how big is that thing Is it like heavy said dude is heavy It's really sure he gets a big one probably give me yeah Oh good for him. Yeah I assume that Trisha got the big one too because it wasn't Seemed like she should have dudes You just mentioned her name that is the definition of getting the big one

1:17:41 Well, she should probably be getting the big one tonight. So Osama Elassery I hope I got that right a la SSI ry Osama elastin in Doha Qatar Wow so we have a Middle Eastern listener that's good and And he gave us $64 and 32 cents which is 64 dollars and half of 64 to 32 years as some sort of a mathematical thing going on there Eric Payne in Lexington, Kentucky which I think I talked about Lexington last time it was $62.00 and 64 cents and Michael Gogos G-O-G-O-S in Tokyo gave us 50 bucks now right in the middle of the week two contributions came in bang bang one after the other one from Stord Norway Stig Helga Westerheim

1:18:35 and one from Platte City, Missouri Michael Kearns. And these came in within minutes of each other and this is a classic example random number theory These two contributions came in from two different parts of the world at the exact same time I can show you the list of donations $2, $5 81 da-da-da boom boom these to 69 dollars and sixty nine cents Two in a row from different parts of the world right in the middle of the day, bang-bang right after you. One after the other. Bang-bang is appropriate with a swassall nerf times four love it thank you so much yeah I like that. But that again is the random number theory at work

No Agenda Show Logistics and Value-for-Value Model

rss· squarespace· value-for-value· podcasting· media deconstruction

1:19:13 Anyway, I want to remind people to donate to the show. We do need your help and we need it on a weekly basis and that means going to Dvorak.org slash NA or TheNoAgendaShow.com websites and clicking on one of the icons that will... Hey, and there's something messed up. I'm not quite sure how the noagendershow.com website works but when it picks up the show notes it doesn't pick up the links for some reason. I think that we have to talk to the web guy. I don't think he's...I think he just cut and pasting from curry dot com which has a show notes with links It seems like an RSS problem. I thought he was picking it automatically through RSS. This is Squarespace site and I think thats module they put in there so we have to check that because we might ask the Squarespace folks to fix something

1:19:55 Yeah, maybe and but anyway go to squirts of school. Go to no agenda show calm or Dvorak org slash na and that'll take you to the contribution site And we'd like to get some more the $5 I mean this is essentially again parking meter money five dollars a month You do that? I told you last on Sunday took my daughter to the movies 25 bucks and that included you know there was two tickets for Two cokes and a popcorn 25 bucks for one movie. Yeah, you got away cheap. Yeah Seriously I mean yeah some of these movies that cost the fortune to get in and out of there especially if you have A bigger family like could take four people There's 100 bucks gone And I do like the fact a lot of people are taking the the

1:20:43 The $1 show. Now what was it? That was the um five dollars or one dollar no one dollar a month which is 50 cents a show right no fifty cents a show and there and they started like so this is uh episode 133, and actually going back and giving us fifty cents for each previous episode which is now somewhere around 60-62 bucks And I like that. That's highly appreciated, that's a very good way of looking at it and a lot of these people actually go back and listen to all episodes! That frightens me. Yeah... I can't do that because I don't understand maybe I think the information that we're providing here, we don't normally do a lot of mea culpa because we don't make a lot of mistakes doing this show. The research we do is pretty obscure. The stuff were looking at is obscure like the algae guy who else was watching C-SPAN 10 p.m., guys yakking? You have to be kind dedicated to do that so people out there don't have too and we catch a lot of stuff but miss a lot of stuff obviously. There's only so many things you can talk about

1:21:43 But the fact of the matter is I think we dig up a lot of cool stuff that people can then relate, you know. And it was – The one thing I was noticing and I think everyone's like it's a male to this effect. It's not so much than even what were talking about as entertaining or interesting or maybe even that out of the blue unordinary but at least it shows that when your – I think people would like for example with the Katie Couric thing I think a lot of people now... You should be paid to watch the Katie Couric thing. It's just one big ad! Well, what i'm saying is that I think people are as they listen to us are trying or getting a clue about how to read between the lines and how does spot bogus information

1:22:23 That is actually something, I think it was Einstein who said that. Did he contribute this week? Hey Einstein you owe us some big money dude! No it was something to the effect of when you read you read the black letters when I read I read the white between the lines or something like that I think it was an Einstein quote could be wrong off look at up But yeah, that's exactly what you have to do. And I think that if anything we're helping our audience are ever expanding audience to look through what the bullshit the matrix of crap that is being thrown out over us from the fringe media such as ABC News and understand What's really going on? Like can I wind up this week with a little bit of history John just for the folks who are interested in

1:23:11 Yeah, if you let me just throw one more out of the blue plug in there for good for wild speculative thought if anybody out there's been following the story about the hooker and the pimp in the uh... acorn which has been pretty much decimated by these guys there is a very good article in the washington post of four-pager on that online discusses their backgrounds and all kinds of interesting little tidbits of information which doesn't detract from anything they did but it does give you a little more insight into what weather coming from its quite uh... and then again uh... good reporting outstanding i don't have to get his name in front of me

1:23:46 But I should plug him, he's a great writer. And that's the Washington Post you said? Yeah They're being sued, Acorn is suing them by the way for illegal recording. Yeah well good luck with that. All Acorn is doing is they are going to turn these guys into not martyrs but people who are targeted with huge donations for defense fund and it's just gonna put them on the map So a little bit of history just to wind it up for today. You may have seen on the fringe media station ABC News that it is very doubtful that AIG will actually pay back any if all of the 182 billion dollars that came out of our pockets to bail them out, a lot of which went by the way went straight to Goldman Sachs in payments for some of the business they were doing together

1:24:37 Do you know the history of AIG, John? Because this is what kind of surprised me when I heard about it. You know, I did once but you can brief me. Okay so it was founded by a guy named Cornelius Van Der Star with double R which is relevant along with a guy named James B Cummings in 1919 it was known as the American Asiatic Underwriters Insurance Company in Shanghai China financed by the Asian nations opium trade. Now in 49 Mao Zedong basically brought the People's Liberation Army into Shanghai and said, you guys got to get out. So they moved it to New York City and then they changed the name to AIG so this is some history here which goes all the way through his nephew Cornelius Von der Staar's nephew who do you think his nephew was?

History of AIG and Kenneth Starr Connection

AIG's origins are traced back to 1919 in Shanghai, where it was allegedly financed by the opium trade before moving to New York in 1949. The segment also notes a familial connection between the company's founder and Kenneth Starr, the prosecutor who investigated Bill Clinton.

Well probably not we'll probably be off on some tangent next week But that's kind of what makes the fun to show so much. Well yeah but at least you got that restaurant review in So I'm happy and and we didn't get breath lies when we left right but that could happen hey What were you guys doing in there drinking?
