About this episode

California theme parks Disneyland and Knott's Berry Farm are implementing new safety guidelines that discourage screaming on roller coasters to prevent droplet transmission. The California Attractions and Parks Association supports the plan, while NASCAR simultaneously deploys COVID-detecting dogs from the 360 K9 group at the Atlanta Motor Speedway. These developments coincide with the one-year anniversary of global lockdowns, marked by a surge in media-driven vaccine incentives.

President Joe Biden and Dr. Anthony Fauci have framed vaccination as a patriotic requirement for family gatherings, while CNN medical correspondent Dr. Leana Wen suggests treating basic constitutional freedoms as rewards for the vaccinated. Pfizer CFO Frank D'Amelio informed analysts that the company views the transition to an endemic state as a significant commercial opportunity for annual booster pricing. Meanwhile, internal documents from the Scientific Advisory Group in Ireland reveal a deliberate strategy to increase public anxiety to force compliance with Zero COVID policies. In New York, Mayor Bill de Blasio has accused Governor Andrew Cuomo of a corrupt cover-up regarding nursing home deaths to protect political donors.

Technical disputes over the history of two-inch versus four-inch broadcast videotape erupt alongside a deconstruction of Joe Biden’s recent green screen controversy. Comedian Bill Burr faces backlash for his abrasive Grammy Awards performance, while a retired Marine in Castroville, Texas, delivers a viral speech in a voice bearing a striking resemblance to former Vice President Mike Pence.

Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak on Pandemic Anniversary

Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak open episode 1330 of No Agenda from Austin, Texas, reflecting on the one-year anniversary of the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns. They recall early reporting on staged TikTok videos from Wuhan and discuss the personal disorientation caused by irregular work schedules. Curry notes the influx of former Joe Rogan listeners to the show's audience over the past year.

00:00 Oh, there's a flat rock. Adam Curry, John C. DeVore. It's Thursday March 18th 2021 this is your award winning Get Mo Nation Media assassination episode 1330 This is no agenda debating and broadcasting live from Opportunity Zone 33 here in the frontier of Austin, Texas. Capital of the drone star state! In The Morning everybody I'm Adam Curry And from Northern Silicon Valley where there are two threes in the show number I am John C. DuVorat It's Crackpot & Buzzkill In The Mornin' Happy Sunday or was it Thursday? I can't remember. You know, check this out so we have a couple's...a couple that were couples friends with this is the Hollywood entertainment executive who escaped to Austin from Brooklyn yes you know we've been out a couple times and Tina has gone to lunch with her and I'm like yeah just ask this guy they want to go out to lunch

01:02 So now my days, you know they're really strange. I don't know. I really don't sometimes don't know if it's Thursday or Sunday It's a show day that's all I know Tina has irregular workday Sometimes she works Saturday or something. Yes, it screwed up so I really don't know where I'm at And so I said, how about lunch? He says well sure that'd be great Thursday. Like no that's not gonna work thanks for remembering and so we wind up with like how about drinks Friday will go out to dinner okay the keeper was just like what are you going on a date I was it I guess because all these days flow together for me like every day is either date night or not

01:48 But is that weird if you ask a full-grown man to go to dinner on Friday night? Something about Friday night. Yeah, I think...I would agree with your wife. Oh! That's a nice reserve for her or she has to say I don't go to dinner. Why don't you go out with what's-his name? She has to give you the okay Probably a month before but ahead of time, oh no it doesn't have to be that long could be like Monday I just thought it was funny. Yeah, but that's that's what it is with my days I really don't remember all I know is it was A year ago, more or less that we really started reporting all this stuff. A whole year ago Over a year We actually just started reporting it before it became a thing In February I believe...I remember the videos where you were talking about the TikTok videos Those are the first things to show up Where people in Wuhan were falling down dead on the street They're all staged So we went from that a year ago

CHAPTER 02 / 62 Discussion

California Theme Park COVID-19 Screaming Restrictions

California theme parks including Disneyland and Knott's Berry Farm are implementing new COVID-19 safety guidelines that discourage screaming on roller coasters to prevent the spread of droplets. The California Attractions and Parks Association supports the plan, citing concerns over sputum and aerosol transmission. Skepticism is raised regarding why nasal swabs are required for testing if the virus is primarily spread through oral emissions.

california· disneyland· knotts berry farm· covid-19· screaming· aerosol transmission

02:52 Over a year ago of which we have not taken it a show off, which is okay because it was good for us true We have not taken a show off through the whole kovat pandemic. We've been rewarded with a fairly decent amount of donations Because of Kovac and also because we picked up some Joe Rogan listeners who are generous of a generous sort but You're right, it's been a whole year without taking one single lone day off for any reason including getting COVID. That's right and now a year later let's assess where we're at here in Texas we are free to go wherever we want the virtue signaling Austin has kept everything pretty much the same although The Spin Studio

03:42 still people are still wearing masks but well exercising no not while exercising but that but it was packed now so the occupancy is gone up to a hundred percent so that's all cool but in your neck of the woods what a difference a year makes Try not to scream because it's not allowed on thrill rides at Disneyland, Knotts and all other California theme parks. That's right you'll have to ride roller coasters in silence they say! It is part of the proposed new COVID safety guidelines. Screaming and shouting in public increases the risk for the virus to spread. The plan is being backed by the California Attractions & Parks Association. Yes additional information if your recording a podcast you need to keep your window closed

04:27 If you went podcasting, you could be spewing COVID. Let me ask a rhetorical question... This is based on the fact that it's believed that the COVID virus just permeates the mouth and back of the throat. So when you scream, this sputum from your mouth- tongue area goes streaming into the atmosphere and it can infect somebody else. Someone else who's behind you also screaming could catch that loogie! Now, the question on my mind is if that's true why does the testing have to involve going up the nose and down the throat when your mouth is obviously filled with COVID viruses or you wouldn't need these rules? I'll make...I'll do one better on this. And I'm very very excited about this NASCAR just announced at the Atlanta Motor Speedway

CHAPTER 03 / 62 Discussion

NASCAR Deploying COVID-Detecting Dogs at Atlanta Motor Speedway

NASCAR announced the use of COVID-detecting dogs at the Atlanta Motor Speedway, claiming the animals are as effective as PCR tests. The 360 K9 group and Bio Detection K9 are providing the specialized animals, which have previously been used by the USDA to detect plant viruses. Concerns are raised regarding the potential for dog trainers to use secret signals to trigger false alerts, similar to drug-detecting dog protocols.

nascar· atlanta motor speedway· 360 k9 group· bio detection k9· pcr tests

05:25 They will be using COVID-detecting dogs, and I'm very excited. Because if this is true... Okay that's the topper! If this is true you win the show then then if this is true then you can just don't swab me just have your dog sniffed me that happens at the airport I'm okay In fact, NASCAR went so far as to say in a bulletin sent to teams quote these dogs have shown to be as effective as PCR tests in identifying an infected person and are already being used by professional sports teams hospitals and many other businesses just screen employees and guests. Well this is fantastic!

06:14 And it's an exit strategy. We have nothing but dog people listening to this show, we need to immediately go start training certifying... Well that brings up the question... ...and we have a distributed dog COVID sniffing protection system! We can rent everybody's dog out This brings it to the fore which is how do you train a dog to do this? Well, we'll get the deets. You just don't tell the dog, hey dog! While you're sniffing around which you seem to be doing all day it's all you do Can you when you spot a COVID person can you let us know? Let's see

06:57 We'll be working with the 360 K9 group, a provider of specialized detection dogs that serves industries ranging from the federal government sports teams cruise lines hospital and other large venues. So this is already rolling out but it's not being talked about they've worked with the USDA since 2013 to detect viruses in plants with great operational success So I guess you just, you know, you just take an infected swab oozing with the COVID and say here Fido Sniffy. Their newest company Bio Detection K9. Oh that's a TV series. There goes your exit strategy these people they got to get the name. Bio detection canine oh man yeah shoot

07:48 So this has got to be one of those deals that you read. We've actually talked about this probably five or six years ago on the show, the people, the dog guys, the guy's going into drug detecting dogs and bomb detecting dogs and these sorts of dogs. Yeah. And they go to like a car. They have these dogs at a ferry terminals in Seattle. And so you're in line outside and kind of it's like a large parking lot, cars lined up to go on the ferry and there's these dogs that come out and they sniffing around and every so often one just sits by usually left front tire of the car they just sit

08:29 Stop sniffing a sit that means together cars got to be examined and there was we just did a story about how some of these dog trainers Especially the drug dog trainers and some of these other ones they have a signal. They give to the dog yeah Fake it fake it do it do it now Yeah, I had that at the border check one time the dogs like drugs drugs drugs Yep Yeah, well that's okay. I wonder if this is what we're getting at first? You know what, I'd rather be picked out of a crowd because someone hates me than subject to stupid tests and we can read this two ways either this is great news or look how bad the PCR test does dogs could do their business. Well we know the PCR test sucks in fact I want to point out to somebody

CHAPTER 04 / 62 Discussion

Thermal Imaging Sensors and Asymptomatic Spread Theories

A comparison is made between the current pandemic response and the SARS-CoV-1 outbreak, where airports in Vancouver and elsewhere utilized thermal imaging cameras to detect fevers. The current reliance on PCR testing is criticized in favor of temperature monitoring. The theory of asymptomatic spread is dismissed as a "Typhoid Mary" narrative that differs from previous viral outbreaks like MERS.

sars-cov-1· vancouver· thermal imaging· pcr tests· asymptomatic spread

09:19 Because I was traveling around the world during the SARS, which is just a variation of this virus. That was SARS-CoV1 and they had all the airports were equipped with these giant thermal sensors So when you landed in Vancouver or someplace, there was a guy standing there and they had these screens. I actually snuck around and looked at how they operated and it worked pretty well so when you're walking in to check go through customs or passport control they had... You were monitored by these thermal cameras, thermal imaging cameras if your temperature is off a little bit right right They pull you aside

10:01 They didn't do any PCR tests or any of these other worries, and it's the same basic virus. They've just dreamed up—and I bitched about this in a newsletter couple newsletters ago—they dreamed up this typhoid Mary theory Unlike apparently all the other coughs, SARS-1 and the rest of them, there's MERS. This one you can wander around like an idiot with it and cough and cough or don't cough because you have to not cough to be asymptomatic. You have no coughs! You're just breathing... And you're passing it on everybody this is nonsense Yeah I got a note from Sir Dude Named Jim regarding cleaning out your nose before test

CHAPTER 05 / 62 Discussion

Haladine and Japanese Gargling Rituals for Virus Prevention

Research into low COVID-19 rates in Japan suggests a link to the cultural obsession with gargling to prevent illness. A product called Haladine, which uses a specialized betadine/iodine formulation for the mouth and nose, is highlighted as a potential preventative measure for travelers and NCAA sports teams. The hosts suggest that coaches should investigate these antiseptic sprays to avoid tournament disqualifications.

japan· haladine· betadine· ncaa· iodine· gargling

10:48 He said it reminded him of something. He'd been researching why the spread of COVID is so low in Japan and he came across information about the Japanese obsession of gargling to prevent colds and flu, which I did not know. One thing led to another... maybe Sir Mark or Dame Ashford could inform us? We used to do that! We used to do neti pot stuff, but for the flu? No I mean in the United States where gargling was effectively... Ah Listerine! That's right. The old Listerine. Lots of gargling One thing led to another and i found this medication that has been researched and proven effective in several studies for helping prevent infection with the Rona It is essentially betadine Betadine

11:26 that is formulated for the mouth or nose. They make a spray for your mouth and swabs for the nose I got some of it, tried it out didn't have any sort of bad reaction or anything I think it might be worthwhile precaution to use while traveling also... Well I would say hey! The NCAA teams out there are all in lockdown this is the thing to do because you get one player that tests positive and you're out at the tournament Haladine haladine dot com is where we can find out more Send it to anyone has a favorite team get ahold of the coach and tell them about how they're done. Yeah, yeah It's the more you learn here on the no agenda show. I love it was just a bit word like a plethora Meanwhile valuable information there are Paladine calm was at paladin yes ha lo di ne there are on March 20th which is what

CHAPTER 06 / 62 Discussion

Global Freedom Rallies and UK Police Tactics

Global Freedom Rallies are scheduled for March 20th to protest lockdown measures, coinciding with UN-sponsored Anti-Racist Day events. Reports from the Netherlands and the UK describe aggressive police tactics, including the use of undercover "Romeo" units to arrest protesters. A specific incident in the UK involving a vigil for a woman killed by a police officer resulted in authorities beating attendees for illegal assembly.

netherlands· united kingdom· global freedom rallies· romeos· undercover police

12:25 Saturday, there are global freedom rallies scheduled. I mean in every state in every country all around the world this is very organized you haven't heard about it of course because guess what's now been scheduled for March 20th Anti-racist day protests from the UN. It's anti racist day everybody, let's get out there! Yeah anti racist day it's crazy in the Netherlands they've been beating old people in the UK. You know when you old people for being racists? Just for being just for being outside. The old part you gotta be beaten because your a racist John they have something called undercover cops

13:12 And these have a name, the Romeos. Which is an acronym for something but the Romeo is an undercover cop and these guys... it's like secret police! And they're coming out and they're... Yeah, throwing them on the ground. You know, handcuffing them knee to the back pushing their head into the ground In the UK there was a vigil we didn't even talk about it last show for a woman who was abducted and kidnapped and killed I think by a cop actually some weird sex obsession and there was a vigil They were beating people!

13:51 Because it was an illegal assembly because they said no, no you can't you can have a peaceful vigil here beating people It's crazy. Yeah these globalists Well yeah That's exactly what's happening is black I think we also promised a year ago I might have even made the joke, maybe just a couple weeks into it saying, oh you know people can be so fed up in a couple of weeks. They'll be like give me the vaccine Bill Gates! Well now...now we've ratcheted it up now is the vaccine push and it is disgusting. Disgusting

CHAPTER 07 / 62 Discussion

BBC Vaccine Promotion and Transmission Claims

The BBC is airing promotional segments suggesting that refusing the COVID-19 vaccine puts friends, family, and strangers in danger. The messaging claims that even if the vaccine does not stop transmission, it is still vital for everyone to receive the shot to prevent the virus from finding new hosts. The narrative frames the pandemic's end as a choice between collective protection and the continued victory of the virus.

bbc· united kingdom· covid-19 vaccine· herd immunity· transmission

14:37 But they're pushing, they've politicized it. And when I say they, i'm talking about the media but let's start over in the UK just so we can get a measured message from Auntie, The BBC They have a little promo What happens if you don't get the COVID vaccine? Well let's find out Your friends, family colleagues classmates and anyone else you come into contact with even strangers could be put in danger if you turn down the vaccine. It's not just a decision that affects you it's okay to have questions about the Covid vaccine that's normal it's good to talk about them though with your doctor or community leaders

15:18 or even friends and family you trust who have received the vaccine already. Vaccines have been tested rigorously, and they've been found to be safe and to prevent people from developing symptoms and getting seriously ill with COVID-19 But now we're starting to see research which suggests a vaccine can prevent people from spreading the virus too You're vaccinated and your friends and colleagues are vaccinated that will substantially reduce the risk for everybody That makes sense. If you're not coughing or sneezing, then it's harder to pass the virus on if we spread less COVID-19 fewer people get sick and the pandemic will be over sooner So the current thinking is if you choose to get the vaccine You're choosing to look after yourself and everyone you come into contact with

16:03 If you don't, then you and those people won't have that protection. The scientists say they need to gather more data on this issue before we can be certain that vaccines reduce transmission. But even if it turns out to be true...if too many people don't get their shot then that makes it easier for the virus to find a way to spread meaning more people will get ill and die And if it turns out the vaccine doesn't stop you from spreading the virus, then it's even more important that everyone gets their shot. So there is only one victor in a world where vaccines have and vaccines have nots... The virus itself! I got a bunch of clips from Biden on Good Morning America and I knew I'd probably play this one out of order

CHAPTER 08 / 62 Discussion

Joe Biden and Anthony Fauci Politicize Vaccine Hesitancy

President Joe Biden appeared on Good Morning America framing vaccination as a patriotic act and a requirement for hugging grandchildren. Meanwhile, Dr. Anthony Fauci expressed concern on Meet the Press regarding polling that shows 47% of Trump voters and half of Republican men refuse the vaccine. The media narrative is criticized for framing vaccine hesitancy strictly as a partisan Republican issue while ignoring similar trends in other demographics.

joe biden· anthony fauci· republicans· maga· cbs evening news· patriotism

16:52 which is that, and this is only a part of it's 34 second part of the they're talking about the vaccines. And this is the pitch that Biden has and this is GMA Biden Patriot COVID. Seeing I'm American my freedom to not do it well why don't you be a patriot protect other people? How about emphasizing the positive how has life changed for you since you got the vaccine? Well I can hug my grandkids now They come over to the house, I can see them. I'm able to be with them. Uh, I've had the vaccine and secondly it has changed my life in a sense that i've been able to demonstrate other people that I doubt whether people expect me to take if anything was safe um... To make the case that it is safe to take the vaccine It's important to take the vaccine

17:40 Yeah, you're a patriot. Yeah, patriot well that's very interesting okay I got to play some stuff out of order too because the main narrative this past week on the United States television stations was It was completely politicized. And so I think the term patriot is taken on purpose as perhaps a hands across the border, or a fig leaf towards the obvious anti-vaxxers known as the Republican Party which is Here we go. This is CBS Evening News. Another priority for the White House, making sure Americans get vaccinated while a majority plan to when it becomes available nearly 1 3rd of Republicans say they won't Should President Trump help promote the vaccine among skeptics sir? The thing that has more impact than anything Trump would say to the MAGA folks is what the local doctor with the local preachers with the local people in the community say

18:42 So they're pushing this and here's how it got picked up. Of course, Fauci had to launch it on Meet the Press. For instance among Trump voters 47% have said that they will not be vaccinated 30 percent say yes among Biden voters 58 10 among Republican men half of Republican men say they're not going to take this vaccine you had the PSA with all the former presidents except one President Trump in there. Do you think he needs to be enlisted here at all to get his voters to take this vaccine? Chuck, I hope he does because the numbers that you gave are so disturbing how such a large proportion of a certain group

19:23 would not want to get vaccinated merely because of political consideration. It makes absolutely no sense and I've been saying that for so long we've got to dissociate political persuasion from what's common-sense, no brainer public health things the history of vaccinology has rescued us from smallpox from polio from measles from all the other diseases What is the problem here? This is a vaccine that is going to be life-saving for millions of people. How some groups would not want to do it, for reasons that I just don't understand? I mean, I just can't comprehend what the reason for that is when you have a vaccine that's 94% to 95% effective and it is very safe. I just don't get it! Yeah... Just a quick... It's not FDA approved. By the way, when he talked about—he had a couple

CHAPTER 09 / 62 Discussion

Edwin Black on the History of Vaccination Opposition

Author Edwin Black recently presented research on the historical opposition to vaccines, noting that early 19th-century cartoonists often depicted the "Grim Reaper" as the vaccinator. The discussion highlights that historical vaccinations were often dangerous, leading to significant public distrust. Black is currently researching these historical parallels to modern vaccine skepticism.

edwin black· ibm and the holocaust· vaccination history· grim reaper

20:21 things to say in there I want to comment on one. I was talking that just coincidentally Edwin Black as we promoted his book... Oh the IBM and the Jews? The IBM and the Holocaust, so he calls me to chat and he mentioned to me just in passing that he had done a presentation at one of the colleges about the history of vaccination and as Fauci goes on about how great it is And he mentioned to me that the history of vaccination involved a lot of murders, of people that were promoting vaccinations. Most of the cartoonists had cartooned The Grim Reaper as the vaccinator because vaccinations in its early days were just killing people left and right

21:12 This is probably, yeah I gotta have to talk to him again about this. He's gotta produce a paper or something. No but he has a book about this you said? He wrote a book? No no it was a presentation and this guy is incredibly productive as a researcher Oh my goodness we need to get that. Yeah he's unbelievable Well let's just talk about efficacy for a moment because new information has come in Peer-reviewed study and it has consequences in the numbers that Fauci is talking about. Informed consent disclosure to vaccine trial subjects of risk of COVID-19 vaccines, results of the peer reviewed medical study COVID-19 vaccines designed to elicit neutralizing antibodies may sensitize vaccine recipients to more severe disease than if they were not vaccinated

CHAPTER 10 / 62 Discussion

Peer-Reviewed Study on Absolute Risk Reduction

A peer-reviewed study published in the British Medical Journal suggests that COVID-19 vaccines may sensitize recipients to more severe disease through neutralizing antibodies. The data indicates that while relative risk reduction is high, the absolute risk reduction for Pfizer and Moderna vaccines is only between 0.7% and 1.1%. This discrepancy suggests the actual benefit to the average individual is much lower than publicly reported.

british medical journal· fda· pfizer· moderna· absolute risk reduction

22:07 In other words, next time the common cold comes around chances are going to get greater and more severe disease if you're vaccinated compared to those who don't. In fact... And this is the British Medical Journal published this in the FDA guidelines it says the agency has to provide an absolute risk reduction for a product not just a relative risk reduction Relative risk reduction is relative to the disease COVID, which may very well be 95%. But if you take into account the damage some people and the amount of people who have received damage from the vaccine. And this is not always specific... This is not specific to this vaccine but could be vaccines in general

22:56 When you look at that number, the absolute risk as in the risk of you getting hurt versus the risk of getting COVID is 1%. So efficacy. That's higher than the COVID problem Well, no it's taking the COVID problem. No I'm saying that 1% is high number. I mean...I'm sorry it's the relative risk reduction. Reduction? So you go from 90... Relative risk reduction is only one percent? Yes! Yes! I'm sorry I didn't hear... Unreported absolute risk reduction measures of 0.7 percent and 1.1 percent for the Pfizer BioNTech and Moderna vaccines respectively are very much lower than the reported relative risk reduction measures

CHAPTER 11 / 62 Discussion

Media Framing of Republican Vaccine Denial as Racism

Despite Donald Trump recommending the vaccine on Fox News, CBS and other outlets continue to focus on "partisan" vaccine hesitancy among young Republicans. The hosts predict the media will soon pivot to labeling vaccine denial as a form of racism because it disproportionately affects minority communities. This psychological manipulation is described as a progression from intimidation to domination of the public narrative.

donald trump· cbs· fox news· racism· vaccine hesitancy

23:46 So it doesn't do anything. Well, 1% well 9%, you know, you have a chocolate bar in the morning probably does better than that could be could be Anyway, everyone's acting like the Republicans don't want the vaccine. Republicans are anti-vaxxers a certain group of people why wouldn't you want to take this despite those numbers you just heard and Trump won't do anything about it or did he? CBS doesn't watch ABC Former President Trump is joining the push to get more Americans vaccinated on Fox News Trump was asked if he would recommend getting a shot I would, I would recommend it and I would recommend it to a lot of people that don't want to get it. And a lot of those people voted for me frankly but you know again we have our freedoms and we have to live by that and I agree with that also but It's a great vaccine, its a safe vaccine and something that works A recent poll found nearly half of Republicans say they haven't gotten the vaccine and don't plan on getting one

24:48 That's all you need, a recent poll and then you get stories like this on CBS. We are seeing the trend line in willingness to get the vaccine going up it has been going up over recent months and weeks so you've got a majority now saying if they haven't gotten it already that yes they will get but there are still some who are hesitant some on the fence with maybe and some outright no and one of the key things we're seeing here Margaret is that that is related to partisanship You've got Democrats saying that they'll get it. You've got most independents... The media is making this a political issue! The media is doing it and they're gonna turn around and say, you asswipe! It's not political you know?

25:32 Yes, that's exactly what they did. They say it's not political and they're the one politicizing it and one of the mechanisms they're using here is that the dumb Republicans who probably maybe actually are doctors or did the research but that's beside the point because you promote... The dumb Republicans aren't taking You're not a Republican, are you Mr. Black Man on the Street? You're not a Republican are you Mr. Latinx? You're not a Republican are you white lady from the suburbs? That's exactly... No I'm not a Republican! Why should she taking the vaccine only stupid Republicans aren't taking it and its only one leap from Republican to not taking the vaccine makes you racist guaranteed read book right now put in its happening write down

26:19 You better write that. Vaccine denial is racism because you don't care about black and brown people. This is also a lot of leverage to make sure the black community takes the vaccine. Yeah, how's that working out? Well, they never mentioned that by the way in those reports. Oh half of Republican males won't take it They won't say one thing about the black community No! You've got Democrats saying that they'll get it you got most independents but there is a reluctant reluctance relatively among Republicans and in particular younger Republicans under 65. So as they become eligible for to get the vaccine we're really going to have to watch whether they change their minds on it, We ask them why they're still hesitant? They say well it's still untested while they're worried about the side effects It is! Some don't trust the government or don't trust the science on it

27:17 They don't trust the science. The science is... well you just read part of the science! Oh no, shut up you with your science. You're not doing it right Yeah this is this is the manipulation then comes the intimidation then the domination and It's going to the young kids we got to go after that a young Republicans You know the guy in Denmark had the right idea he killed all the kids from the opposite party didn't like We are seeing the trend line in willingness to get the vaccine going up. It's been going up over recent months and weeks, so you've got a majority now saying if they haven't gotten it already that yes they will get it but there are still some who are hesitant some on the fence with maybe and some outright no and one of the key things we're seeing here Margaret is that that is related to partisanship. You've got Democrats saying that they'll get it

CHAPTER 12 / 62 Discussion

FDA Emergency Use Authorization and Suppressed Treatments

Blue Cross Blue Shield advertisements are criticized for claiming vaccines are "FDA authorized" without clarifying the "Emergency Use Authorization" (EUA) status. Under FDA rules, an EUA can only be granted if there are no approved alternative treatments. This legal requirement is cited as the reason for the aggressive suppression of Ivermectin, Hydroxychloroquine, and Vitamin D by health authorities and social media platforms.

fda· emergency use authorization· ivermectin· hydroxychloroquine· vitamin d

28:11 There is that more reluctance relatively among Republicans, and in particular younger Republicans under 65. Wait did I just double that clip? I'm sorry somehow that doubled. Sounds familiar! Forget about it let's go to the promotion part ladies and gentlemen uh let's go to Blue Cross Brew Shield all part of the big setup the big money-making scheme they're advertising on radio Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan wants to remind you how important it is to get a COVID vaccine when you are eligible. These vaccines are safe and authorized by the FDA, so when it's time... Hold on stop!

28:47 Is this, are these the giant speakers that are outside the city beaming this information in through loudspeakers? This is one of our producers. Attention public! This is one of our producers. Attention public! Attention public! Take the vaccine immediately you all ordered to take the vaccine immediately He recorded it in the car. These vaccines are safe and authorized by the FDA. Sounds like the big speaker, but listen I love this these vaccines are safe and authorized by the FDA. Yeah emergency use authorization well they are authorized but under emergency use authorization that's misleading the way they state it is. They stated...I did look it up based upon our discussion our thread with a producer

29:34 about the emergency use authorization. Indeed, it can only be evoked by the FDA if there is no approved treatment. There's no approved treatment? Approved! Yeah that's the key word. So if you don't have an approved treatment which could be Ivermectin, Hydroxychloroquine, Vitamin D... Anything that actually works Which is why they fought so hard against it Because they can't have the emergency use authorization if something out there works. That's the whole reason behind it! Trump was handy for it, he was handy by the way. Yeah because they're just gonna push back on anything Trump said and once you mentioned hydroxychloroquine which is probably why Africa really doesn't have many cases

30:27 because they use that for anti-malarial just by coincidence. So you end up with pushing back on Trump and then you got that out of the way, and then the ivermectin thing came up later there's a bunch of doctors that came over them they got all kicked off at YouTube. You had the guy pleading in the Senate saying please reevaluate what are doing here! Ivermectin works Berks by just by coincidence Burke's buddy No, she became my I fell out of love with her very quickly And I'm very happy that her face looks all haggard now because women hate that so I just well. I'm happy for her She deserves that That's low I know it's low but I mean it's very disappointing lady and

31:14 She was on ABC and you know, long profile piece because now that schools can be reopened with new filtration systems. Now that we have the COVID bill signed into law so that the schools can get money for these systems she's not working at one of these companies that provides these systems and is on the board of a big venture capital fund that has funded the company So she's a total government a-hole shill I hate it when they do this It's just, it's corrupt. It's so disgusting! It's completely corrupt So she reminisced for a moment about the moment when Trump said you should drink bleach How do you think about your role in that? And how did you think it impacted the American people and their confidence

CHAPTER 13 / 62 Discussion

Deborah Birx, UV Light, and Playground Safety

Dr. Deborah Birx appeared on ABC News to distance herself from Donald Trump's comments regarding disinfectants, citing her military training as the reason she did not intervene. The hosts argue that the media's focus on the "bleach" narrative covered up legitimate scientific data Birx possessed regarding UV light's ability to kill the virus on playgrounds. This obfuscation led to the unnecessary closure of outdoor spaces for children.

So you end up with pushing back on Trump and then you got that out of the way, and then the ivermectin thing came up later there's a bunch of doctors that came over them they got all kicked off at YouTube.

It's so disgusting! It's completely corrupt So she reminisced for a moment about the moment when Trump said you should drink bleach How do you think about your role in that? And how did you think it impacted the American people and their confidence

32:02 in the science that we need to solve so many problems. Well, thank you and please know that science does evolve as it did during this pandemic so we know a lot more now than I knew 14 months ago on that moment obviously there's a lot of tape on that you can see how extraordinarily uncomfortable i was unfortunately he was not speaking to me he was speaking to the DHS scientists who had presented the data And then when he did turn to me, I said not a treatment. You know, I have spent almost 30 years in the military. I worked for every president from Jimmy Carter up and through President Bush in the military serving them as commanders-in-chief. Frankly, I didn't know how to handle that episode. I still think about it every day. When I was spoken to, I said not a treatment

32:57 But I don't know, I guess some people thought I should run up on stage and interrupt this dialogue that was going on between the DHS scientists and the president. But I was just not trained in my years of training to react that way. Oh, OK. Maybe if someone didn't have the military training that I had maybe they would have reacted differently. So because she's a military trained person she didn't know how to respond is good. It was something Dr. Fauci and I talked about all that time. Yes. And of course CDC and all of us went out and said this was not a treatment this was really meant now wait for it what could happen at a playground

33:41 in the sunlight to the virus on the playground itself. So what was obfuscated because of the bullshit M5M about the president saying go drink bleach, which he didn't some actual information about UV light and playgrounds was covered up that could have at least opened playgrounds? That's how crazy this is. That's your vitamin D connection. That's how crazy this yes exactly Now, if you want subtlety don't go to CNN. If you want funny clips go to CNN this is Dr Leanna Nguyen and she is medical correspondent for CNN and she has a marching orders from the CDC. The CDC said psych go do it in propagate the formula! My main concern is that we're not going to reach herd immunity because of vaccine hesitancy

CHAPTER 14 / 62 Discussion

Dr. Leana Wen on Using Freedoms as Vaccine Incentives

CNN medical correspondent Dr. Leana Wen expressed concern that the U.S. will not reach herd immunity due to vaccine hesitancy. She urged the Biden administration and the CDC to "be bolder" by framing basic freedoms as "carrots" or rewards for the vaccinated. The hosts describe this rhetoric as diabolical, suggesting that constitutional rights are being treated as conditional privileges granted by the state.

leana wen· cnn· cdc· herd immunity· vaccine incentives

34:42 I know that's hard for a lot of people to believe who desperately want the vaccine right now. And they're thinking, well it is just a small percentage of people who are actually anti-vaxxers and that is true there is the anti science anti vaxer contingent but I think there are many more millions of people who for whatever reason have concerns about the vaccine who just don't know what's in it for them we need to make clear to them that the vaccine is the ticket back to pre pandemic life and going to be? How are we going to incentivize people to actually get the vaccine. So that's why I think the CDC and the Biden administration needs to come out a lot bolder and say, if you're vaccinated, you can do all these things here all these freedoms that you have because otherwise people are going to go out and enjoy these freedoms anyway. And I fear situation of coming into the fall

35:44 we never reach herd immunity and then we get hit by the next surge of COVID-19 in the fall, something that we could have prevented if we just got people vaccinated now. In some countries secret intelligence is used to control their people In ours, it only exists to protect their freedoms. Protect their freedoms. You can only enjoy your freedoms if you take the vaccine! You can't have your freedom unless you take the vaccine! What carrot could we possibly use? She asks That is diabolical

CHAPTER 15 / 62 Discussion

Pfizer CFO Frank D'Amelio on Endemic Pricing Opportunities

Pfizer CFO Frank D'Amelio informed analysts that the company views the shift from a pandemic to an "endemic" state as a significant commercial opportunity. He noted that once normal market forces return, Pfizer can increase pricing and implement annual booster shots. The discussion highlights the financial incentives for pharmaceutical companies to ensure the virus remains a permanent fixture in society.

pfizer· frank d'amelio· goldman sachs· endemic· boosters

36:26 It's worse than diabolical. It's sick it is it really really really? It's just sick That's that's pretty much the only thing you can say so you might have seen this and this is a callback to 2008 of this very show when we first but now as later than that 2010 2011 I'm sorry when we first started talking about the the big vaccine conference, the financial conference and everybody was talking about the numbers and how great this was. Goldman Sachs I think it was a everyone's talking about how great the numbers were and we can't believe we're gonna be giving people medication without them being sick This is a bonanza We'll have vaccines against cocaine addiction and cigarette smoking and farting and all kinds of stuff And we saw those

37:16 We saw those vaccines talked about, some were manufactured. None of them as far as I know got any approval from the FDA because they didn't really have the market demand because people like smoking you know? They don't want to take a shot it turns out so as we look forward to July 1st when the vaccine manufacturers will have to get an FDA approval or go into a phase four trial to get the FDA approval. That's also when the US, certainly the US subsidies end and I think in most countries we know that Pfizer specifically has asked poor countries, I believe it was Venezuela for military bases as collateral. Yeah well we'll ship it to you if we don't trust you so we need your military bases as collateral

38:16 Now that would be fun to own. So, of course Pfizer is out there talking to analysts. This is Frank D'Amelio he's the chief financial officer of Pfizer and he's talking about the impact of the COVID vaccine on their quarterly results and moving forward And would you know it? He's quite bullish! We don't see this as a one-time event but we see this as something that's going to continue for the foreseeable future Now, in terms of pricing let me see if I can hit on that. So if you look at how current demand and current pricing is being driven it's clearly not being driven by what I'll call normal market conditions normal market forces. It's really been driven by kind of the pandemic state that we've been in and the needs of governments to really secure doses from the various vaccine suppliers so

39:13 What we believe, what I believe is as we move from a pandemic state to an endemic situation normal market forces and conditions will start to kick in. And factors like efficacy booster ability clinical utility will, you know basically become very important and we view that as quite frankly a significant opportunity for our vaccine from the demand perspective. From pricing perspective given the clinical profile of our vaccine so clearly more to come here but we think as this shifts from pandemic to endemic we think there's an opportunity here for us. Third shot at annual boosters when it's endemic There is your future

CHAPTER 16 / 62 Discussion

CDC Vaccination Record Card PDF and Forgery Jokes

The hosts mention that a high-quality PDF of the official CDC COVID-19 vaccination record card is available in the show notes. While they clarify they are not encouraging forgery, they joke about people filling them out for "entertainment purposes" or as a "gaffe." The segment serves as a critique of the increasing requirement for documentation to participate in public life.

cdc· vaccination card· pdf· forgery· gaffe

40:04 It's just like they see a lot of money. Yeah, it's just like the flu shot Only you won't be able to have your freedom if you don't get it that's what it is yeah Good luck pulling that one off well They're really going to try they're really trying or the back there by the way so far they're winning yes in the show notes I have the official CDC kovat 19 vaccination record card to PDF its high quality so you can print that out and you can If you, I don't know if you could put it on the wall or some people might want to fill it out. That's up to you but it is the official pre-print version. Well I wouldn't advise people counterfeiting documents... I didn't say that! I didn't say counterfeit. I said they can fill it out.

40:58 Just to be on the safe side for you, just for your protection make sure you take a look at somebody else's card that actually is filled out by a doctor so you can use the same format. Yeah not trying to tell anyone to forge anything but I don't want to tell you do that as if...I think just as a joke yeah oh yeah it's totally a gaffe! It's just something to do for fun. You can go hey look i got a vaccine and jump the line people get all pissed off and say haha jokes on you with the forgery That's a great gaffe. It's right up there with the whoopee- Fantastic, gang! Right up there with the whoopee cushion By the way we provide this for entertainment purposes only Same thing

CHAPTER 17 / 62 Discussion

Anthony Fauci's "AIDS De-escalation" Verbal Slip

During a discussion about clinical trials for children as young as six months old, Dr. Anthony Fauci accidentally referred to the process as an "AIDS de-escalation study" before correcting himself to "age de-escalation." The hosts speculate on Fauci's history with the AIDS crisis and his current timeline for vaccinating elementary school children by the first quarter of 2022.

anthony fauci· aids· pediatric vaccines· 2022· clinical trials

41:42 All right, a little gaffe from Herr Fauci as he's talking about going after the kids. Going to vaccinate the kids kindergarten two years old we can go and get you shoot them kids up for high school students it looks like they will be available to get vaccinated in the beginning of the fall very likely for the full term with regards to children were doing an AIDS DS an age deescalation study Oh my God what is on his mind? Why in AIDS were you were infecting the kids with AIDS? Why did you say that? Let's hear that again. With regard to children, we're doing an AIDS de-escalation study. Damn man! Yeah I know...I know AIDS age, you know the guy is the AIDS guy he didn't solve anything and killed a lot of people or I didn't say he killed him but there's a lot of accusations

42:38 So is that just on his mind or something really going on? Let's continue. In elementary school children from 12 to 9, and nine to six, six to two and two months...six months for two years we anticipate will have enough data to be able to vaccinate these younger children by the first quarter of 2022 Yeah well there you go did you got plenty of time to move They're going to keep the legend of Fauci alive. PBS, I think South Florida station they produce it has a special on Anthony Fauci Unfortunately have not been able to get a copy yet It aired you know one these things that airs once in one market then someone has to find it and so I'm waiting for that The title...I have the promo here which is worth listening too. It is titled Fauci Virus Hunter

CHAPTER 18 / 62 Discussion

PBS Special Fauci: Virus Hunter and National Vaccine Day

A new PBS documentary titled "Fauci: Virus Hunter" is being promoted, framing the doctor as a global savior while acknowledging his polarizing nature. Simultaneously, the Surgeon General has proposed a "National Vaccine Day" federal holiday for Labor Day weekend 2021. The holiday would feature block parties and live music to incentivize skeptics to receive their shots.

pbs· anthony fauci· national vaccine day· federal holiday· labor day

43:33 It kills in a high percentage and it kills quickly. He is the man who's helped navigate America through several public health crises He is the scientist who commands the attention of leaders around the world. Dr Fauci, all I hear from Dr Fauci is we can't do this and that! This is a very unusual virus that we can't even pretend to know everything about it that we need to know. He's the advisor who has helped seven presidents fight humanity's most virulent enemies and drawn his fair share critics. Critics?

44:10 How did a young Brooklyn-born doctor take over the world stage? There are many things when you have outbreaks. In an era of shouting, it's the unknown he taught... It's the cataclysmic nature of it with language that people could understand to get information out because there is a lot of fear How did Anthony Fauci become one of the planet's most prominent infectious disease doctors? Our patient Nina Pham is free of Ebola. Join us now as we share the inside story of America's top pandemic expert, a savior to some, a polarizing and alarmist figure to others

44:52 That's right, coming to a theater near you Fauci virus enter. Well that's good news by your basic theory Yes because the boomerang always comes back and chops your head off when you abuse the media for your own promotion Yep Exactly. But that will not stop the Surgeon General from proposing a national vaccine day, which would be a one-time federal holiday to celebrate COVID-19 vaccinations! Yes, to move the needle on adoption some public health advocates are promoting an unorthodox incentive. A one-time only federal holiday National Vaccine Day which might fall on the Friday of Labor Day weekend 2021 it would serve multiple purposes filled with... You're already taking the day off! Wait

CHAPTER 19 / 62 Discussion

Incompetent Vaccinators and Medical Complications

An anecdote is shared regarding an elderly woman who developed a grapefruit-sized growth on her arm after receiving a COVID-19 vaccine. Medical researchers discovered the untrained vaccinator had accidentally injected the needle into her bone rather than muscle tissue. The story is used to highlight the risks of using "amateur" personnel to administer mass vaccinations during the proposed National Vaccine Day.

vaccine injury· medical malpractice· grapefruit growth· bone injection

45:43 filled with live music, block parties and other in-person events. It would be a mass celebration that commemorates the doctors nurses and other essential personnel who continue to work through the pandemic and for groups that may still be reluctant to get their shot The prospect of joining the festivities might help convince skeptics and holdouts to embrace inoculation beforehand Yeah, so vaccine day will be the day you go get vaccinated. Not just off for work and get the whole day off federal holiday! Federal holiday! So I'm listening to a one of the talk shows with kind of not in right wing or left-wing talk channel but kind of more old fashioned neutral ones are trying to be neutral they still lean left and this guy's a big vaccine for more but he mentions

46:33 that he is, and I'm telling this story because...I don't like the idea of these amateurs giving these shots. It's just as simplistic as they are His grandma was big, oh I gotta get the vaccine. And she goes and gets the vaccine, she gets a shot and then she gets a growth on her arm where the shot was given that's the size they claim of a grapefruit. Yes, I've heard this. Just getting bigger by the day so she is being brought into some of the big medical research facilities to figure out what it turned out when it turned out when she was old lady, so thin that the incompetent vaccinator

47:13 stuck the needle and apparently got right into her bone. And once this stuff was injected, it caused the bone to start doing something that created this huge swelling and they still haven't been able to resolve this Another unreported little jam there. So when vaccination day everyone goes gets vaccinated, how many people are going to be...how many amateurs are gonna be given just shots left and right? Well they're also gonna fly the flag at half-staff on vaccine day for all the people who die. Die waiting for the vaccine? We had lunch no early dinner with a couple friends here

CHAPTER 20 / 62 Discussion

Social Pressure and the Illusion of Post-Vaccine Freedom

The hosts discuss friends in Austin, including a "yogi" who typically favors alternative medicine, who received the vaccine solely to regain their freedom. They observe that despite being vaccinated, these individuals still face social pressure to wear masks and follow restrictions. The segment concludes that politicians are unlikely to relinquish control regardless of vaccination rates.

yoga· peer pressure· masks· social restrictions· austin

47:58 And they'd both gotten the vaccine. They both work for the city, one in Parks and Rec and one in water planning. And I was saddened by it because one half she was saying you know I just wanted to be free so... She's very like alternative medicine yoga she's a yogi Wow! She is the last person you would expect to take the vaccine Exactly but she's convinced that she'll be free because she's taken the vaccine and you know, and these are our friends. And we don't really discuss politics or anything that much." I said well but there's still all these restrictions and before I could say you know because it doesn't work The retort was yeah, yeah, that's just now this is just the beginning Don't worry It's all coming. I just feel bad You know it's like no you don't know what you're talking about

48:52 The restrictions will be forced by the people that you're not going to get levy or anything lightened from politicians. It's against their interest, they don't like giving up control and speaking of such... They are just gonna be free to do what? Yeah go anywhere premise go anywhere not wear a mask at private parties hug people. That's a peer group! Yeah, it is a peer group thing. I know The mask is a peer-group thing so that's got nothing to do with whether you got the shot or not because nobody knows whether you got the shot So put the mask on! Now can't hurt my stepdaughter in Brooklyn She was so excited because she got her vaccination and her stimulus check both on the same day It doesn't get any better

CHAPTER 21 / 62 Discussion

The Two-Inch vs. Four-Inch Videotape Dispute

A heated technical debate erupts between the hosts regarding the history of broadcast videotape. One host claims to have edited "four-inch" tape with razor blades in the Netherlands, while the other insists that the standard large-format tape was two-inch Quadruplex. They eventually clarify the technical specifications of Ampex and BCN machines used in early television production.

ampex· quadruplex· bcn· videotape· broadcasting history

49:48 This is interesting that our wide-ranging influence, the two of us... We have lost several members. Nobody cares what we have to say. Present all the evidence you want that maybe... Well okay since we're on that you and I may have a disagreement because I have been in television for all of my adult life. I go back to racking up four-inch tape on the machine, videotape. I have edited video tape with a razor blade and iron filings. You've probably done the same. There's one thing i haven't done...

50:36 done any work with four-inch tape and by the way you haven't either so continue with our disagreements. Excuse me? What are you talking about yeah I sure have what do you talk no did you just call me a liar Yeah! Do you know the 4 inch tape i'm talking about not talking about the old BCNs, I am talking about the old ones when I first started when I was 19 in the Netherlands. You're talking about video tape. Video Tape yeah. Why...what It's two inch. No, that's the BCN! Before that it was four inch believe me! The Ampex tape was two-inch Four-inch videotape... Quadruplex video tape goodbye! Quadruplex video tape is 2-inch Hmm let me see I am so sure it was 4-inch

51:40 Two inches BNC or BCN. Quadriplex tape was two inches, this stuff they use on the Ampex there was never a four inch tape it's too big hmm well then I'm wrong I stand corrected but what was the what was the BCM then? The BCM was 2-inch what was the big tape that big tape was to wish two inches of big tape and what came most tape is 1 quarter inch Now that's... hmm. Okay, the original tape was two inches a big giant Ampeg stuff that had the heads that spun around and vertically on the tape yeah you know what would have been nicer of you to say is instead if you haven't done that and make me drag it out of you what the mistake was you could say I think it was 2 inches. I told you what it was! I said there's no such thing as a four inch tape after you said I'd never done that

CHAPTER 22 / 62 Discussion

Joe Biden Green Screen Controversy and Chroma Key

The hosts address viral videos claiming President Joe Biden used a green screen during a press interaction. While one host argues it was a lens distortion anomaly confirmed by a Voice of America boom operator, the other suggests the public's desire to believe it is fake stems from Biden's perceived frailty. They discuss the use of "chroma key" and "single-shot" editing techniques similar to those used in the film 1917.

joe biden· green screen· chroma key· voice of america· 1917

52:33 You understand the difference? Well, I was... okay you're right. I was snide yes but since you brought it up just a substantive... you made it a competition and you've lost you made me do that and I'm okay Yes! I made you explain what the hell you were talking about all right here we go The Biden green screen hoax was not a green screen hoax I don't care. A lot of people do! This is unbelievable, my wife... no that's green screen and of course I incorrectly said four-inch tape she didn't have the wherewithal to correct me

53:17 But I said, I've done green screen when it was blue screen. That's not green screen that some anomaly anomaly its lens distortion and I even found the guy from Voice of America which is questionable Of course who was holding that boom and he said absolutely that happened there And there's a side shot where you can see a whole different scenario But I could not convince anyone who saw this video. They would not listen, so that was my point is even... Oh! I think you're making a huge mistake in the way you approached it as i did when i told you that you were foolish to talk about foreign state. Okay all right but the thing was

53:56 I think people want to believe that Biden is an invalid and he can't even be, he has to be on screen screening. It may even be a robot because he's wearing a mask it could couldn't be a stand-in which is by the way the stand in possibility. If someone had said that to me like that guy isn't Joe Biden or look he's dead they've just got robotics in him that would be more believable to me And that's the thing that is funny. Everyone is bitching about this green screen. I don't understand why you were so defensive about it, just who cares? Okay well maybe it was not a green screen blue screen. By the way the correct term is chroma key Absolutely. It's not blue screen or green screen, it could be anything and especially nowadays and I don't know how a green screen would work though like green anyway that's involved...I don't know! If i was going to take the argument make a big deal out of that I woulda said the following did you notice at when they pulled the camera back and then they had this in the back is some guys jacket so it covered the screen all black thats when they transition to the other shot

54:58 to make it look as though was a continuation shot which was what they did in the movie 1917 if you ever watch that I do with the movie 1917 was supposedly one shot single no shot the whole movie know but If you watch it with that in mind, you will see moments where somebody walks in front of the camera and completely blanks out the screen. That's when they cut and go to another shot so its bull crap! So I would have made that argument but then again I thought about this if there is going to be green screens, there are going to be a lot of them coming at ya faster and faster. I guess what you said earlier was really the point

55:46 It's like you want this to be fake so bad that you just summarily dismiss someone who might know something about it. We do that all the time too, but in this case I know I do no flying. I do know television. I know radio those are kind of my things I Have some expertise. I'm just surprised and people will argue incessantly Like they love it Wow. They really want this to be green screen, they want a robotic Biden Yeah The whole thing and I will tell you this and i'm sure that you've watched part of it but I do have a bunch of the GMA clips

Hindenburg Journalist Pro and Audio Editing Techniques

A discussion on the technical aspects of podcast production focuses on the use of Hindenburg Journalist Pro software. The hosts describe their meticulous process of "buggering" audio by removing silences and pregnant pauses from news clips, particularly those involving long-winded Senate and House committee hearings. This technique is used to maintain the show's fast pace.

hindenburg journalist pro· audio editing· waveforms· senate committees

56:24 This was the most edited thing I've ever seen in my life. And, I don't have quite the attunation that you have. You're totally attuned to these clips that are edited too much which is one of the reasons when I do edits I'm very careful to make them fool you but this Biden thing... The listening audience be damned as long as your fooling only me I only care about the fooling you. And then, but I really care about getting the occasional compliment that which is wow that is a great great edit yeah which is because you do probably due to some of the finest

57:10 I don't even know how to explain it, but after the show and we do the... We have to sometimes edit something. And Adam will clip it. Yeah like a mistake or a pick up or something like that yeah. Something or yeah they said we lost connection and he has to pick He does this very fine-tuned.. He's got a nice tool though. I don't have his tool. Hindenburg Journalist Pro. Yeah I like it a lot. So he uses this tool and he can clip out so you have somebody talking over each other You just have a little noise Nick that out just barely. I'm a totally interesting total ant bugger and I need to go all the way in but actually yes most of my clips, I would say That's by the way. Yeah, okay 80% of the clips I make After it's recorded and it's playing back and I'm looking at the waveform I'll see you pause And I'll do in out X so that's in point in point cut I cut out silences Just because just to speed up the show

58:08 Almost all I do that constant. Yeah, I mean and but it's now second nature to me. I'm talking to someone I'm like in out X Most of the clips are we do both of us the silences are especially The worst offenders are this Senate and House committees They cannot just ask it. They just look that's your silence isn't half of the five minutes or you would give you five minutes You know they had I would say of the five minutes one whole minute Is long pregnant pauses right? Minimum now, I enjoy a totally pregnant pause when we're talking I enjoy if it's done Right yeah because every dentist on us We're doing but doing it live

Bill Burr's Controversial Grammy Awards Appearance

Comedian Bill Burr faced backlash for his appearance at the Grammy Awards, where he joked about wanting to kill himself during a piano solo by Igor Levit. The hosts review the clip and find the outrage disproportionate, noting that Burr was simply performing his usual abrasive routine. They suggest his placement in the show was a deliberate attempt at diversity that backfired.

bill burr· grammy awards· igor levit· netflix· comedy

58:57 is wanting to playing clips with a bunch of pauses in them. No, it's deadening. It's deadening! Yeah you got to move the show along before we I want to get to buy enough one last clip which i think is pertinent because we're just winding up everything with uh so when they have one clip on kovat left too wait fuck before i go there let's just stay with tv Just for a second because everyone's forgotten about it because no one saw it the Grammy Awards this year. Oh, I have a clip Oh, please let's do the clip. I have stuff to say about this Okay The Grammy Awards I want to hear that what you have to say but the Grammy was more than anything But so they made a big fuss. I heard it on all different talk shows old bill burr bill Burr Bill Bury insulted them He said so I went back and listened to the whole bill birth thing and Bill Burr came out

59:46 insulted the piano player who was before him and then all he did was read off award winners. The guy was more lame than usual so I clipped a bill, the pertinent part of Bill Burr insulting it's only 1 point 8 point 08 minutes or one minute eight seconds i'm sorry to one minute and eight seconds And I'm thinking, what is the fuss? This is the best you can do and this has got everybody in a tizzy. Just play this clip! Thank you, Igor for that sublime performance. I feel like I'm in a virtual heaven And now let's mingle and jingle with the stand-up comedian who taught us on Netflix that F is for family He's nominated for his first Grammy this year in the best comedy album category ladies and gentlemen here's Bill Bilburr Bill bill? Okay thank you J'nae! How are ya

With her brother? Yeah

CHAPTER 25 / 62 Discussion

Grammy Awards Production and the Decline of Award Shows

The 63rd Annual Grammy Awards are analyzed for their high production value and heavy political messaging. Billie Eilish's win for Record of the Year is noted for her visible embarrassment over beating Megan Thee Stallion. The hosts criticize the show's shift toward "BLM" themes and "Illuminati" imagery, noting that ratings have dropped 55% as audiences migrate to streaming and podcasts.

billie eilish· megan thee stallion· bruno mars· beyonce· illuminati

1:01:56 Why is her name now evading me because she's gonna be around for a good reason Billie Eilish. Yeah, so Billie Eilish won best song or best record and she was so embarrassed so embarrassed that she immediately said, no, no Megan Thee Stallion this is really yours. This belongs to you I should not be up here. I should not have this. This is your award You could tell it was because she was embarrassed by this show Now first I gotta start in the beginning...the production on this show Was the best I have seen In at least a decade

1:02:37 There was a lot of thought went into it. They took the situation and said screw it Let's not do this dumb in an auditorium We're going to have the musicians on set and watching each other play, and then covering up some set changes by going to pre-produced packages which were also Dynamite. Bruno Mars did just some fantastic stuff. The edits everything was... I'm sitting there with my mouth open like wow this is so much money went into this And I think you and I would both agree, whenever you put on a television show—it's television specifically. A television show so good, so kick-ass everything came together it was just beautiful no one ever watched it the ratings were down 55% over last year. So about two thirds of the way through something happened. It turned into BLM Black Lives Matter

1:03:40 F the police fest with Beyonce and Beyonce clearly, the Queen Beyonce saying, oh Megan Thee Stallion is my protege. At one point there was a band that was performing on this really weird stage at the end it goes all the way up and it's the damn Illuminati All Seeing Eye I mean also coincidentally the CBS logo but I mean this was what? It was unbelievable how this was put together as a, um... As it just progressed towards the end to say you know what pretty much white people don't belong here. It was mind-boggling did you watch any of it? No probably not I watched that I watched it through the went through the post Malone right little He was also embarrassed when he had to accept his award

1:04:36 Yeah, I didn't see that part. It was so... I just saw his satanic presentation with the skulls and all the bread and all the rest of it. It was really bad! Yeah. And I said, I'm not going to watch this crap and I just killed it and I went back to get the Bill Burr stuff later because I want to see what the hell he did that was so offensive. Yeah. And he did say bid when you use the word bid which I thought was funny What I liked a lot though this year they did The Dead segment differently So normally you get one song someone comes out sings a tearjerker You get the pictures rotating boohoo You know you're sitting there at home like oh really?

1:05:15 I'll miss her. This year, they took like a good 10 minutes and played multiple songs at video bytes and of course that caused problems you know why did Eddie Van Halen only get his guitar featured empty on an empty stage? And Kenny Rogers had Lionel Richie sing a song! You know it's that kind of stuff Holy crap. Anyway, I think that's probably the last award show you'll see they're dead they're over nobody cares There's no there's no celebrity draw it had nothing to do with an award show It was just a damn good show No one cares about it They're not interested they've turned to streaming during The lockdowns and it's all your own doing people are going away from cable news in droves

CHAPTER 26 / 62 Discussion

Irish MP Exposes "Zero COVID" Fear Tactics

An Irish Member of Parliament revealed internal communications from the Scientific Advisory Group (ISAG) advocating for "Zero COVID" policies. The leaked documents suggest the group deliberately sought to increase public anxiety and "go after people" rather than institutions to force compliance. The segment also briefly mentions the suspicious death of Tanzanian President John Magufuli, who was a vocal COVID-19 skeptic.

ireland· tanzania· john magufuli· saul alinsky· zero covid

1:05:58 And they're all coming towards podcasting. That's what's happening Yes, it is it is now a couple more things before we move on one One Do you remember the president of Tanzania? Who was saying hey man this is this kovat stuff as this test is bullcrap He tested a Kiwi and a goat or something remember that yeah Yeah, he's dead Yeah, I know he died the other day. He's one of those three. They did a tribute to him on PBS. Heart illness! You made a funny point about it. Ha ha ha ha! Ah, he was so inconvenient... No we had to get rid of him but in Ireland this is my last clip in Ireland just like some inconvenient paperwork we heard about in Candanavia

1:06:44 This is an Irish Member of Parliament and he is discussing the, what does this out for? You know they have one of those boards the ISAG I think which is the science advisory group who advises politicians on what to do. Well he got some of their internal communications and decided to share that. I want to raise the so-called zero COVID proposal today... I should mention this is something look out for The zero COVID, this is it's kind of like zero emissions and I think there are reasons for that. So zero COVID is where we have to be which means everything has to be zero otherwise you can't get the zero that's what Dr. Bill tells me

1:07:28 Well, if you got the COVID you have to go because you can't make a zero. I want to raise the so-called zero COVID proposal today for even this proposal for even harsher lockdown measures for the remainder of the year A report was published recently off the international correspondence and workings of their so called independent scientific advisory group which has been pushing for zero covid and this group has many members, many of whom are virtually household names such as the regularity of their appearances in the media. But our internal correspondence suggests that the group is not basing its positions on strict science but in fact have been massaging the facts to try to entice politicians into adopting zero covid just four weeks ago

1:08:11 The group head wrote to its members asking them to, and I quote, look for ways to increase insecurity anxiety and uncertainty. And to quote go after people and not institutions because people hurt faster than institutions He said that ridicule is man's most powerful weapon and that the threat of a thing is usually more terrifying than the thing itself. In other words, people should be scared into accepting zero COVID. Now this reads like something out of Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals maybe it IS something from Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals but the Social Democrats appear to have bought into these proposals their correspondence suggests that the group has been deliberately adjusting its target for zero COVID

1:08:54 convince that party's leadership to subscribe to the strategy. And all of this is in the public domain and yet incredibly it has not been reported by RTE or in print media, so why is such a group allowed to scaremonger without at least being challenged on their internal conversations that we now know of either by politicians or the media? When a medical doctor advocates hurting people because people hurt faster than institutions. Should that person's views be supported by our ARAFTA members and reported uncritically in the media, I ask? Well we want to talk to you about that! We have a meeting scheduled in Tanzania...I mean this is bad! Yeah it just makes sense to me and he's right by the way as I've been combing over the Alinsky material and yeah it's part of the ridicule one of the things that he has on his rules for radicals

CHAPTER 27 / 62 Discussion

Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals in Modern Media

The hosts discuss the application of Saul Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals" in modern political discourse, specifically Rule Four: "Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules." They argue that these tactics are universal and used by both the left and the right. A recommendation is made for a Substack article regarding the history and benefits of homeschooling.

saul alinsky· rules for radicals· sub stack· whataboutism· homeschooling

1:09:50 Right something we do on our show We actually follow a number. We thought we follow Alinsky very closely on this show yes, you might be surprised Yeah I don't even want to think about how close we are too. We're just projecting The thing about the Linsky which I've talked about before and I'm gonna probably do an essay for sub stack on him Or at least under rule four which is the real kicker that makes things work What's rule four? Rule four is that you, if you go after your enemy, make them follow their own rules to the end. So somebody says well you can't do this and you can't do that and then you say well you're doing it! I mean its just a very interesting rule. Oh its what about-ism

1:10:34 Basically, you go look up. You can do it real quick No I'm gonna wait for the sub stack and before you go any further Excellent sub stack titled understanding homeschooling have put a link in the show notes under OTG where it belongs Really good good substack you did on that Thanks Appreciate that now Back to the Olinsky thing we follow Alinsky on our showed We don't know that we do but we do and I think we've kind of internalize how we do it, but we do it. And the thing that I was going to say initially was that Alinsky's rules for radicals

1:11:12 Don't just apply to radicals. There's been people have done books, Olinsky using a Olinsky for right wing using Olinsky for this and that you don't have to use Olinski for anything but whatever you want to use them for is pretty universal he himself promotes himself as a promoter of as a person who whose rules work for the left they are the same exact rules with no changes work fine for the right they work fine for the middle of the road they work fine for anybody there They're fabulous, actually. Well and I would recommend people look at the books you don't have to buy the right wing version just by his book and read it. I didn't expect to get into this right now but it may be worth it. Um, I got a note from millennial Kate, you know, the one in Chicago if you recall um And this is regarding The Bachelor

CHAPTER 28 / 62 Discussion

The Bachelor Racism Controversy and Don Lemon

The Bachelor star Matt James broke up with contestant Rachel Kirkconnell after photos surfaced of her at an "antebellum-themed" party. Millennial producer Kate from Chicago provides commentary on how cancel culture has become a form of "enjoyable drama" for young women. Don Lemon's serious coverage of the reality show's scripted drama is mocked as a sign of declining journalistic standards.

the bachelor· matt james· rachel kirkconnell· don lemon· cancel culture

1:12:02 Now, of course you and I don't follow this. Oh maybe you do? I dunno but there was quite the to-do over it... We know that the winner's pictures appeared of her attending an antebellum party That's why the host had to go away because he says what is this woke shit He hadn't even seen the pictures But he had to apologize and be a monk for a year or so before we could get back on TV But what happened with the final show, I will... Well why don't we play? I'll play the little bit first. So this was the guy, The Bachelor

1:12:47 Black guy for For context I think the girl she may be more multi culty. I don't even think she's white I'm not sure she looked a little like changes of Asian to me. I don't know this only the only clip I've ever seen of it, but He broke up with her because of this, because clearly she's a racist and you can... This is now coming out because the last episode aired. And it's like oh my God! Here's what happened I realized that must have been really hard for you as well to wear You must have been hurting and i just wanted to say I'm really sorry for not understanding that initially So when I questioned our relationship

1:13:32 It was on the context of you not fully understanding my blackness and what it means to be a black man in America. And what it would mean for our kids when I saw those things that were floating around the internet, and they broke my heart because this is the last conversation I thought we'd be having And here's what Millennial Kate says. So ten minutes ago, she emailed me earlier this week I was minding my own business cooking dinner and my roommate comes out to exclaim how she is quote so excited to see that girl get called out for being a racist on live TV! Racist! Followed by This is great drama

1:14:17 And then Millennial Kate says it hit me. Not only does virtue signaling make people feel morally superior and so good about themselves, but it's also enjoyable drama! People are addicted to cancel culture for the drama So it's not only giving them that sweet sweet dopamine hit when they feel superior and right But it's also great entertainment for 20-something year old women who have no lives outside of Instagram Now let's listen to a twenty year old woman uh... with her reaction yeah i think most people in america had figured out that mad head pick up sorry it was a bad joke but like rachel the young lady who was involved in this because that's what because otherwise why would they be you know getting rid of chris and going to meet the hoops if they were jumping through i was surprised though that he actually broke up with her because of it because here is how we had defended her

1:15:10 But I think that was probably the realist thing that i've ever seen on The Bachelor. People who are in an interracial relationship and then having one side not understand now... Is this guy a total idiot? This whole thing was a scam! Yeah, hold on let's let him finish answer yes. I think it had they been in a relationship for a longer period of time, right? Where there was the relationship had a bigger, longer and better foundation. I think it may have been something that they might have been able to work out but from a reality show and not really knowing each other that well that's some tough stuff. Tough stuff yeah tough Look it played out the way it played out I'm not surprised Wait for it And I'm sure came as a shock to him and a shock to her Here is what I will say though if you look at her apology

1:15:59 It appears that she is willing to do the work unless she understands. Her actions she understands bad girl if she is willing to do the work We will see and that will certainly make all of the difference but so far in all of this She has been the one who's apologized and has apologized In a way, that seems sincere. And that goes a long way Oh you've been blessed by Donna Lemon there you go You've been blessed move on This is a complete farce This was staged, of course. Because that's what the Bachelor is! It's a reality show, of course it's staged! It's a phony baloney deal and to be suckered at-at a news anchor level like Don Lemon just exposed himself... well in some ways. More ways than one He shows what a moron he is this is ridiculous this whole scenario

1:16:57 Thank you for it's good publicity for the show. Hello, obviously It broke before the final season hello television ratings down What are we gonna do? We want to get renewed we don't wanna have to do make goods We want to do well of course it so and he even adds a reality show people being played I think our millennial producer in Chicago at least has a clue. Yeah, she does more than a clue But I'm glad she sent that in because it is funny that some one of her friends know several She lives with a whole bunch of girls over friends sucker suckered to take hook line and sinker by this Bullshit! I'm sure they all got the vaccine the next day

CHAPTER 29 / 62 Discussion

Dictionary.com Changes "Slave" to "Enslaved"

Dictionary.com has announced it will replace the noun "slave" with "enslaved person" to avoid dehumanizing language. The hosts mock this linguistic shift, questioning if historical media like the book and miniseries "Roots" will be censored next. They joke about the absurdity of using "enslaved" as a derogatory command in a "PC" environment.

dictionary.com· slave· enslaved· linguistics· roots

1:17:46 Final here, since we're just all over the map. Dictionary.com has changed yet something else in their entries It's always interesting when this takes place because words do matter. Dictionary.com will stop using slave as a noun to describe people Do you know why? I'm all ears Because it's dehumanizing Instead, they will use enslaved. Oh this began remember we pointed this out on the show people using enslaved yep Yep you're right Did you have a clip of that? I think you might have had a clip it probably is yes here It is imagine being an enslaved cotton picker there you go in slave Amy Amy driving the words

1:18:44 She's driving words. You know, it's only a matter of time until... Let me think so if I say shut up slave i'm demeaning someone? Of course I am! Dehumanizing them not demeaning. What if you want to dehumanize somebody by calling him a stupid slave well you are not welcome at dictionary dot com if that's what you're thinking No, you cannot do that So it's now against the rules to use dehumanizing speech when I, when the intent is to dehumanize? Well if you play in Scrabble yeah. You lose! Slave is no longer... It can only be an enslaved. Toby be good enslaved. It doesn't even work! Shut up enslaved! We need we need to get rid of roots. Roots is no longer progressive

1:19:38 Remember the movie Roots? The book. Oh, Roots just gotta go! Yeah because well it should go definitely because it's trauma-based entertainment that's coming from my friend but uh yeah I mean this whole idea of sl... ah yeah noodle gun! I'm gonna shoot you in the face with my noodle gun you racist piece a shield I got my pasta glock locked and loaded. You want to do something else or you want to take a little break? We're going to take a break. With that, I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you the man who put the C in the COVID canine unit John C DeVore!

CHAPTER 30 / 62 Discussion

No Agenda Social and Decentralized Mastodon Instances

The hosts discuss the management of the No Agenda Social Mastodon instance, which has reached its 10,000-user limit. They emphasize the importance of decentralization, encouraging listeners to start their own instances at Gitmo.life rather than centralizing on one server. They clarify that the platform is supported through the "value for value" model and refuse external funding to maintain independence.

1:22:42 But you can sign up at gitmo.life and I've seen a couple other people who are taking this to heart and have started their own instances for themselves and for their families, and we're learning how to integrate the timelines that there's some tricks possibly so- Tricks? Yeah tricks or there's more flow but this is what decentralization is all about. You need to break it up into pieces so that there's not one weak link in the chain and it's not a money issue Yeah, I'm sure that we could finance the money of it. Eirner won't take any money from us he refuses because value for value

1:23:18 But that's not going to solve it. It's we need this is a forceful move I mean, it's a forcible what are you laughing about? Sorry That's got nothing to do with your what you said.

CHAPTER 31 / 62 Discussion

Episode 1329 Art Controversy and "Walker Force One"

A mock-serious apology is issued regarding the previous episode's artwork, which depicted Joe Biden using a presidential walker titled "Walker Force One." While one host jokingly calls it "elder abuse," they both agree the art by Brad1x was a clever commentary on the President's perceived physical state. They promote the No Agenda Art Generator and the integration of changing artwork in Podcasting 2.0 apps.

brad1x· joe biden· elder abuse· noagendaartgenerator.com· podcasting 2.0

1:24:12 No. But you smell something! That's the one by Lottaline Oh yeah, no that's right I'm sorry didn't notice the artist Very funny That's a winner Somebody's gonna have to go a long way to beat that piece of art for today. You might as well give up, boys! Yeah stop! Save your energy! Well let's thank Brad1x for the album art for episode 1329 we titled that one Boba Liberals and I got several emails from Asian American producers thanks for weighing in nice to have you guys here I knew he had my Asians out there

1:24:54 And now I'm learning a lot. Yeah before you continue, I want to publicly apologize For going along with this particular piece of art. I Think it's offensive Fucker What? You didn't mention any of this while we were selecting it. I was kind of forced into accepting it I am now feel bad about it because this is making fun of the elderly and it is And Biden, I already feel bad about doing these Biden clips on every Sunday in particular. Wow! Oh excuse me there's the bus push again so i can get right under it. I want to be positioned Well I don't know what its got to do with you You make it look at... who else would force you into this? I didn't force you we both agreed that was nothing better

1:25:43 I don't know what you're doing. I'm just making it clear that I personally am publicly apologizing for this artwork Okay, then you can apologize for it. I just did but You weren't forced into anything oh? Oh my gosh What I'm gonna start recording our after show sessions because you know now it's like, I need receipts. Okay, okay. Let me get further apology. I apologize for...I somewhat promoted this piece because it was the best of the group

1:26:23 and I feel bad about it. Oh, okay! Well i don't feel bad at all not at all because you can then you can live with the karmic consequences. And by the way I understand your apology I can live with it because, I am mocking the elderly abuse of Joe Biden. And i've been someone who has said that from day one. I said this is elder abuse and I don't like it. Yes you have! I agree. So now... This was meta. Anyway this was the Walker Force One Although it did not have the requested tennis balls on each of the four. Which would make no sense on this design? No, it would not have made any sense and this was clearly a presidential model Someone was telling me that it was just such a great piece of art That I think I just slipped into the convenience of saying yeah It's damn good! I love that mask hanging off of it The presidential seal and little little pad and you know everything that you know the football may be contained in there

1:27:24 So we appreciate what Brad1x has done and Brad 1X will get, well of course receive the credit as the artist who brought us the artwork for episode 1329. Noagendaartgenerator.com is where you can see all this if your using podcasting 2.0 app then you can see these images changing... This is catching on now people are seeing art change on their watches they're smartwatches It's kind of wild and we have a brand new app coming in about a week's time So hopefully on the Thursday show in a week. We'll have some cool news to announce I'm telling you, I keep looking at this

Nurse Anesthetist Erica Callahan on Hospital Occupancy

Erica Callahan, a nurse anesthetist with 24 years of experience, contributes $333.33 and validates the show's reporting on COVID-19. She claims that national hospital bed occupancy only reached 10% during the peak of the pandemic, contradicting media narratives about overwhelmed systems. She frames the pandemic response as a precursor to the "Great Reset" rather than a public health crisis.

1:38:21 What do you mean that's true? Sometimes, what do you mean... Yeah sometimes if it's a long donation I notice it.

1:39:00 down some internet rabbit holes on a trip to the Caribbean. Incidentally, I found your website and upon my return to the States I heard Adam on Joe Rogan! I have been hooked ever since.

Nasal swab results within a couple of minutes, we... well that's interesting! We asked what happened? How come they can't do that in Canada?! We asked what happens if someone tests positive and the quote was Sir no one gets a positive result she replied. This is what the banker told us really if you get the test

1:40:20 Yeah, remember he had the... Oh right because they cover all... oh right. Right! This is what you have to do. You need to get this. Turns out that the resort has to cover 50% of the cost. Exactly So just send everyone back home I now have a bunch of online orders waiting lots of them from no agenda folk Thank for all your patience and courage Sir Cal What's his name?

1:41:16 Nagy in Manchester. Okay, thank you for this short note Erica is long one Erica Callahan 333 33 from Sir weekly Pennsylvania the morning to you both I've been listening to no agenda for the last year actually being hit in the mouth by see Mike and his lovely wife Dame Blackhammer And they're 18 children It's time my return some I made that up but they have a lot of date They got a lot of kids it's time. I returned some value-for-value. I'm a nurse anesthetist and have worked in health care for 24 years. Your no-nonsense reporting of the COVID lie has kept me sane when I'm surrounded by Kool Aid lapping co-workers who have worked themselves into hysterics despite our workplace really disproving the M5M coverage

1:42:04 There's so much I could say about the Rona, but time and space does not permit. For the sake of brevity, I will say that you are both absolutely 100% spot on regarding COVID. The national average hospital bed occupancy at the height of things was only around 10%, as you reported. So there was never a curve to flatten. This is all about the Great Reset, not health and I fear it's never going away." I've resigned myself to the fact that we are witnessing the death of common sense brought to you by the real pandemic oversized amygdalas. Yes, this is a problem!

John C. Dvorak's FOIA Dispute with the FBI

John C. Dvorak reveals he is in a dispute with the FBI over a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request. The agency has determined that Dvorak does not qualify as a "journalist" or "news organization," which would subject him to higher processing fees. Dvorak plans to document the experience on his Substack, suspecting the agency is using "dummy contracts" to delay his requests.

You know how advertisers make money? They do it by placing ads and getting a piece of that so they would, what idiots. Exactly. They even question why we were doing business with Facebook as they believe they may help manipulate the election again! Our CEO had had a town hall meeting explaining that we could not dictate client spend

Water Treatment Metaphor and "Shut Up Enslaved"

A producer compares the No Agenda Show to a water treatment facility that processes "raw sewage" (propaganda) into "tap water" (truth). The hosts joke about the lack of fluoride in their "water." They also discuss updating their soundboard jingles to reflect new "PC" standards, changing the "Shut Up Slave" clip to "Shut Up Enslaved."

Sir Roderick of Flavor Town (Charlotte, NC) prompts a discussion on the correct terminology and pronunciation of "Realtor." The hosts explain that "Realtor" is a trademarked title for members of the National Association of Realtors, whereas others are simply real estate agents. They also debate the "reel-uh-tur" vs. "reel-tur" pronunciation.

The $75,000 Bitcoin Birthday Gaffe

Kevin Reisinger writes in to resolve a grievance from 2013, when he donated 1.313 Bitcoin (then worth $73, now worth $75,000) for a birthday shout-out that was never read. Adam Curry admits he was "bashing" Bitcoin at the time and likely missed the email sent to an old Outlook address. Curry offers a sincere apology and a "goat karma" to make amends for the eight-year delay.

bitcoin· 2013· birthday shout out· nafeedback· cryptocurrency

1:55:14 Just wanted to donate because I turned 29 on the 18th, which is Thursday's show and considering I ushered in my 20s with your deconstruction. I would be remiss if I didn't bring more value for value before it's all over now technically I haven't been a douche since then if only for the fact that I donated via Bitcoin on March 7 2013 You guys were bashing Bitcoin, specifically Adam who was using it. And I decided to donate 1.313 bitcoin worth $73 at the time and send a few emails on how to track donations along with the birthday shout out." By the way that would have been worth about seventy five thousand dollars today! Yeah

1:55:58 It's always worth something today, but if we had kept it say we got it We would have probably sold at that when I got the 400 of course no of course But it's nice to project you know JC claims that he's got two whole bitcoins lost somewhere in an old hard disk And I think Eric mentioned somebody he lost a couple of people lose these things yeah now all you need to do is write down your 12 or 24 phrases and You don't need your hard drive But, well sadly. Anyway I continue and send a few emails on how to track donations along with the birthday shout out To my surprise in the next show I listen to Adam denounce BTC transactions And my donation AND birthday shout out went unnoticed!

1:56:43 Maybe it was because I sent it to the email nafeedbackatoutlook.com Yeah, which was mentioned in the show for missing emails or for the Bitcoin thing Do you remember any about this? NaFeedbackAtOutlook.com Absolutely not that doesn't ring true to me Anyways, it's not the value of the donation now that has weighed heavy on my heart all this time. The fact that I never got a birthday shout out or de-douching back then. Awwww... I feel bad! Aw, poor Kevin! Kevin, oh Kevin we're sorry. I am sorry! I'm more sorry about this than i am about the disgusting cart that push thing that Biden pushes around. Yeah I feel bad about this one yeah I do too and really do don't feel good about that

1:57:37 And you're on the list today, by the way Kevin. Yes he's on the list for today and I apologize you and you were right what did I know? And it took me seven years before I figured it out and i have a you know, I'm a maximalist now. WTC7 Lil Fouchy Weez no real confreak You got it! WTC7 won't go away! Weez is no real confreak!

LinkedIn Honey Traps and Professional Stalking

A producer's note about LinkedIn being a "piece of shit" leads to a revelation about a "honey trap" experiment. One host created a profile for a beautiful fake woman on LinkedIn to see how many professional men would attempt to "hit on" her. The experiment revealed that many men use the professional networking site for inappropriate stalking, including people known to the hosts.

Pi Day Donations and Title Upgrades

The hosts review the success of their "Pi Day" donation drive ($314.15), noting that while the $3,000 tier had no takers, several producers contributed $31.41. They discuss how producers are now listing their "Executive Producer" titles on LinkedIn and IMDb. The segment reinforces the "value for value" model as the show's sole source of funding.

Joe Biden's Border Crisis Interview on GMA

President Joe Biden's interview with George Stephanopoulos on Good Morning America is deconstructed for its logical inconsistencies. Biden claimed that the administration is taking "unaccompanied minors" away from their mothers, a statement that contradicts the definition of an unaccompanied minor. The hosts criticize ABC for editing the interview to hide Biden's gaffes while failing to ask follow-up questions.

2:04:49 I should mention that in the pie donation, I had three selections. One of them was 3000 or 3000. Nobody's doing that one. The 3001 nobody did that but the $31 and 41 cents three people Oh really picked up on a three whole people including Dave Fugazotto Thank you Dave thank you to all all those people yeah oh my Okay. Well, Biden! Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Biden. So Biden goes on Good Morning America and they did... I'm happy because i did not see this interview so uh I'll be able to hear your edits well I didn't do any edits oh then I won't hear any edits but no you will you'll hear the edit oh their edits Oh No that's what I was talking about it was their edits Do I need to make a noise when I hear an edit or just uh nah ring a bell if all right alright okay I'll try

2:05:48 So they talked about I got one two three four. Now how was this build? Was this build as a, as him finally speaking to the press or uh... Yeah and it was plugged into an extreme on ABC. This is his news conference just talking to ABC? Yeah pretty much No really?! No i think he's gonna do a news conference but this was promoted as this is Joe coming out and talking And it was obvious to me because some of the edits were Joe, where he goes off the rails. And so they caught all of his gaffes, all of them there's no gas except he made one little mistake and they couldn't they didn't cut it They didn't spot it I think I'm the only one spotted under news media would never spot it and we'll start with that one and this is the GMA Biden illogic as the clip

2:06:37 Let's talk about the crisis at the border. Some heartbreaking scenes down there, right now and a lot of the migrants coming in saying they're coming in because you promised to make things better it seems to be getting worse by the day was it a mistake not to anticipate this surge? Well first of all there was a surge the last two years and 19 and 20 there was a surge as well This one might be worse No, well it could be but here is the deal First of all The idea that Joe Biden said come because I heard the other day that they're coming because you know, I'm a nice guy and I won't do it. Yeah well here's the deal Well here's the deal They're not but adults are being sent back number one number two What do you do with an unaccompanied child who comes to the border? Do you repeat what Trump did take them from their mothers to move them away behold him in cells etc. I Heard an edit at the end there

2:07:34 Well think Joe mood probably but Joe mood Let's go over the what he said. Yeah, please GMA couldn't get rid of What do you do about unaccompanied minors, he says. Do you what Trump did and take them away from their mothers? Isn't that beautiful? Unaccompanied minors being taken away from their mothers who are not accompanying them That's exactly what he said Now, and I think ABC found most of these kinds of stupid follow-ups and comments that are dumb like that unaccompanied minors with their mother.

2:08:17 But the rest of them, they're all clean. This is the only one that got by him and nobody picked up on it. Nobody in the media said what he said there was a great cat. Well, well they heard it but they couldn't get rid of it so they couldn't cut out of it. They tried cutting in with here's the deal here's the deal couple times. Well I put that in oh okay well good well done So you kept saying here's the deal? Here's the deal yeah and look look look alright here we hear he is on the let's try this question something to see which order This is a continuation of the talk he was just giving and this is the dumbest, you have to listen to this one and tell me what you think. This is the GMA Biden asylum in place clip

CHAPTER 43 / 62 Discussion

"Asylum in Place" and DHS Deployment to Guatemala

Biden announced a new policy of "asylum in place," where migrants can apply for U.S. asylum from their home cities in countries like Guatemala. This plan involves deploying DHS and FEMA personnel to Central American cities to process applications. The hosts question why existing U.S. embassies cannot handle these requests and whether this policy effectively "rubber stamps" mass immigration.

joe biden· guatemala· dhs· fema· asylum

2:08:59 We're not doing that. So what we're doing is, we have brought in HHS and also brought in FEMA to provide for enough safe facilities for them not get out of the control of the Border Patrol which are not designed to hold people for long periods of time particularly children get them out of those facilities and most of them come with a phone number. So what we're doing is, we're putting together an entire organizational structure so that within seven days or maybe like you get in the phone contact that number find out whether there is a mother or father whether it's safe where there is secure circumstance to

2:09:34 the child to that adult. It's going to take some time though, to get those policies in place again do you have to say quite clearly don't come? Yes I can say quite clearly don't come and what we're in the process of getting set up it's not gonna take a whole long time is to be able to apply for asylum in place So don't leave your town or city or community. We're going to make sure we have facilities in those cities and towns run by DHS, and also access with HHS Health & Human Services, to say you can apply for asylum from where you are right now. Make your case. We'll have people there to determine whether or not you are able to meet the requirement that you qualify for asylum. That's the best way to do this."

2:10:23 I'm confused. Didn't we already have that in place? I clearly remember the Trump administration... No, the Trump administration put a asylum offices if you want to call them that on the other side of the border in Mexico. Ah okay now this is- So you haul your ass up to Mexico and then you're good to go right well no they're gonna take and put offices American offices for DHS and FEMA, and they're gonna take Americans and put them down in Guatemala. Yeah! In all the cities in Guatemala so you're whatever city or any said in the cities all those cities You know there's more than one mm-hmm 12 and you're gonna have to go in there And you apply right there in the office because there's American office right there this makes no sense well isn't just devils advocate Isn't that exactly what embassies do?

2:11:21 Embassies do that, yes. I mean if you go to the embassy and say I request asylum...I think they have to at least take you in and do the evaluation I believe so. Okay, so hey! I'm okay with an asylum process... Well i don't have a problem with it either but this to move a bunch of DHS and FEMA employees down to Guatemala the set up shop when what you just said is true which is there's an embassy down there that can do it? The Embassy should do maybe they're going to expand a wing of the Embassy but But why won't they use embassy employees, diplomats? Well you don't use DHS and FEMA. FEMA?!

2:12:08 Well, I would say that's because they expect a lot of people to sign up. So... I will note this, Stepanopoulos or whatever he pronounces his name, he did no follow-up questions on any of this. The opportunity to say well you know especially with the taking the unaccompanied children away from their mothers would just invite a follow-up or a clarification. Clarification would be... Look, I'm just it all depends on the criteria for asylum that we are a country that cares about people so but it has to be

2:12:50 you know, you have to qualify. But it's kind of being played by the right-wing media and Tucker Carlson went off like a nut job on this saying, so without asking the American people you bring in more people and make us poorer and worse? Yeah that's for people who make it in But just asylum, and I don't think it's a big deal. Okay so there are a lot of people want asylum and the embassy can't handle it so send a whole bunch of DHS down there It's more question if are they just rubber stamping people and saying no problem you could keep on going here's your papers that's what I'd like to know I have no problem with legal immigration or asylum You're right Stephanopoulos did a poor job No one is asking the actual questions What does that mean?

CHAPTER 44 / 62 Discussion

Afghanistan Withdrawal and the "Sanskrit" Comment

President Biden discussed the May 1st deadline for withdrawing troops from Afghanistan, blaming the Trump administration for a lack of an "orderly transition." During the interview, Biden made an obscure comment about his explanation being "like Sanskrit" to the listeners. The hosts speculate on whether this was a derogatory remark about the audience's intelligence or a confused reference to Indo-Iranian languages.

afghanistan· taliban· sanskrit· joe biden· orderly transition

2:13:41 say the least. Okay, it was scripted let's face it. Scripted and then edited down so Biden didn't look Didn't look normal. He looked like he was on top of his game So here he is about leaving Afghanistan President Trump reached a deal with the Taliban to have all American troops leave by May 1st Are they going to leave? I'm in the process of making that decision now as to when they'll leave The fact is that it was not a very solidly negotiated deal The president the former president worked out and so we're in consultation with our allies as well as the government and That decision is going to be it's in process now likely to take longer I don't think a lot longer but may 1st is tough could happen, but

2:14:36 It is tough because look, one of the drawbacks George and this gonna be like Sanskrit to people listening here but it is the failure to have an orderly transition from the Trump presidency to my presidency which usually takes place from election day till the time you're sworn in. has cost me time and consequences. For example, we didn't realize how bad things were in terms of lack of vaccines We were not able to get access to this information That's part of that's one of the issues we're talking about now What? First of all what's with the Sanskrit people listening I have no idea why he said that! Sanskrit...that's like Does it mean is a different word for Iranians

2:15:34 Well, the Sanskrit only refers to Indians as far as I know. It's just a racist comment! Indo-Iranian is the... Oh is it? I didn't know that. Yeah. Sanskrit is indo-iranian so the Persian script derived from Sanskrit? Indo-iranic languages, Aryan languages, indo-ira.. yeah well I don't know anything about them. Just reading Wikipedia means nothing but This Afghanistan reply is wholly, well the question is inadequate as is the reply.

2:16:13 Well he says with our ally. I'm thinking because he said now that you brought the Indo-Iranian thing in, does he mean by our allies Iran? Let's uh... I tell ya what let's go back and listen Because the Iranians hate to be hate the Taliban. Let's listen. A solidly negotiated deal that the president, former president worked out and so we're in consultation with our Allies as well as the government and that decision's going to be, it's in process now. Likely to take longer? I don't think a lot longer But May 1st is tough Could happen but it is tough because look one of the drawbacks George and this gonna be like Sanskrit people listening here Oh no he said something different

2:17:08 This is going to be like Sanskrit to people listening here. Does that mean that we're too dumb to understand? That's what he implies for sure. Drawbacks, George and it's gonna be like Sanskrit people listening here but It is the failure to have an orderly transition from Geez, that's really odd. Sanskrit just no hmm as Iran on his mind Yeah, sorry going on more tomorrow by the way the only reason we're there is to guard the poppy fields wake up

CHAPTER 45 / 62 Discussion

Biden Calls Putin a "Killer" and the Soulless Anecdote

In his GMA interview, Biden agreed with the characterization of Vladimir Putin as a "killer" and recounted an anecdote where he told Putin to his face that he had "no soul." This escalation in rhetoric is criticized as dangerous and undiplomatic. The hosts reference Glenn Greenwald's reporting, which debunks recent intelligence claims about Russian interference in the 2020 election as evidence-free "blather."

vladimir putin· joe biden· glenn greenwald· russia· killer

2:17:49 Wake up, wake up Stephanopoulos. Wake up ask about the poppy... Why are we protecting the poppy fields? And he should say the answer is well We don't want the poppies to get in the hands of people who don't control! We like our drug cartels that's the answer Yeah, it's part of the CIA's black budget Yes It's how they make them They'd be asking for a lot more money from the taxpayers if they weren't making some money on the side and you know this is a pretty good idea A little gig economy over there It's a gig economy. So let's go on with what he thinks about Putin! Oh wow, this is also ratcheting up now... This is driving me nuts. Director of National Intelligence came out with the report today saying that Vladimir Putin... By the way stop stop stop! The direct- this is bullcrap what he's about to say and this was debunked by the latest Glenn Greenwald column

2:18:43 where he just blasted the media for propagating a bunch of bullcrap including this and here it is right in real time they're propagating this nonsense about the Russian interference in the 2020 election but People got a track down at Glenn Greenwald's, which wasn't even that long. It was only it was long enough. I saw it. I always know what time Tina comes out of her morning read in the bed By how long the Glenn Greenwald article or the Matt Taibbi article. Hmm, okay 10 minutes later than usual must be a long Taibbi article Yeah here we go Director of National Intelligence came out with a report today saying that Vladimir Putin authorized operations during election to denigrate you support President Trump undermine our elections divide our society what price must he pay? He will pay a price I... We had a long talk and I know him relatively well

2:19:44 And the conversation started off, I said, I know you and you know me. If I establish this occurred then be prepared You said he doesn't have a soul? Well i did say that to him yes To end his response was we understand one another I wouldn't mean a wise guy, I was alone with him in his office That's how it came about Hold on a second when was he... This is long time ago, this isn't recent It makes sound like he just had this talk and then its like well in his office Yeah he's full of crap This is when I got arrested while trying to find Nelson Mandela. Is that what this is? Oh yeah, I told him you got no soul asshole in his office when no one was there! So I did...I'm bad And his response was we understand one another. I wasn't being a wise guy. I was alone with him and his office That's how it came about It was when President Bush said I looked into his eyes and saw a soul

2:20:36 I said, look through your eyes and I don't think you have a soul. And he looked back at me and said we understand each other. Look the most important thing dealing with foreign leaders in my experience and I've dealt with an awful lot of them over my career is just know the other guy So you know Vladimir Putin? You think he's a killer Mm-hmm. I do so what price must he pay the price? He's gonna pay well, you'll see shortly I'm not gonna lose by the way We ought to be able that old that trade expression walk and chew gum at the same time There are places where it's in our mutual interest is to work together That's why I renewed the start agreement with him

2:21:12 That occurred while he's doing this, but that's overwhelming in the interest of humanity that we diminish the prospect of a nuclear exchange. Hold on a second! Wait a minute... If there was an interview with Khorchus Favarogh and Rikinson, that's the Stephanopoulos of Russia And Putin said, oh yeah, that soulless bastard Joe Biden Yeah I know what he did He's got what's coming to him We would be going ape shit. We would have the giant voice systems drilling us every week, stand by Russian is incoming! You can't say that on an international stage I'll get back at you and see what's gonna happen. I'm sorry am i overreacting? I didn't have that reaction necessarily because I think Biden's senile but your not over reacting

2:22:14 The way I see it, if you...I think that reaction is reasonable. Jeez! My goodness! Yeah if Putin had done the same thing and made these sites of...he's insulting him Well he's saying the United States will strike back at him Bomb them, bomb them and bomb them again You know? All right, fine. Yes I'm sure Putin is also laughing like ha ha ha! Fine Joe it's good. I don't know if Putin has got that much of...I mean he does have a some something of a sense of humor because we've seen it exhibited but I don't think he likes this sort of thing where the president calls him as soulless a-hole

CHAPTER 46 / 62 Discussion

Andrew Cuomo's Nursing Home Cover-up and Corruption

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio appeared on CBS accusing Governor Andrew Cuomo of a "thoroughly corrupt" cover-up regarding nursing home deaths to protect his public image and donors. While Biden told ABC that Cuomo should resign if investigations confirm sexual harassment claims, the hosts note the media's pivot away from the more serious allegations of lethal policy decisions during the pandemic.

andrew cuomo· bill de blasio· nursing homes· corruption· new york

2:22:58 and that he was gonna get him back. We know each other, we know each other! That's bullcrap this guy stinks! So let's just debunk what basically Greenwald was saying... Was it there was no such report? There was no report or there is the reporter's flaw? No, there is a report that has absolutely with admittedly no evidence It's just blather, being reported as something that is evidentiary when it is not. Right so the three stories we have this week in the United States mainstream media and its the same everywhere I'm sure one way or another Putin Russia Russia Russia Putin he meddled with the 2020 election and he'll get what's coming to him We have Republicans are the assholes they want to kill us all because they won't vaccinate

2:23:50 And what is the... Oh, the third one is they're hunting Asians! Yeah. You know I have used to...I had some clips about the situation in Atlanta which was just an eye roller It's destructive But I'm going to push those to Sunday because there's an eye roller moment that ones especially once they played on PBS but let's finish this and get the one last week because this is the only one that got any attention This is the one about Cuomo and he finally kind of but didn't fully, but he wanted to. But it almost did...but he didn't quite throw Cuomo under the bus. Let me ask you about Governor Cuomo of New York I know you said you want the investigation to continue if the investigation confirms the claims of the women should he resign? Yes! I think he probably end up being prosecuted too

2:24:41 But you, how about right now? You said you want the investigation to continue. You saw Chuck Schumer, Senator Schumer, Senator Gillibrand majority congressional delegation don't think he can be an effective governor right now Can he serve effectively? Well that's a judgment for them to make about their state where they could be effective Here is my position and it has been my position since I wrote the Violence Against Women Act A woman should be presumed to telling the truth and should not be scapegoated and become victimized by her coming forward. Number one, but there should be an investigation to determine whether what she says is true that's just going on now

2:25:18 And you've been very clear, if the investigator confirms the claims he's gone. That's what I think happens and by the way it may very well be that there could be a criminal prosecution that is attached to it. But let the investigator...and I don't know what it is but I start with presumption It takes a lot of courage for women to come forward so the presumption is this should be taken seriously and it should be investigated and that's whats underway now Yeah, because gosh let's not investigate if he made bad decisions that killed a lot of old people. This was a topic. Yeah, you can't get around that! Well this is de Blasio the mayor of New York was on...this was ABC this is CBS Face the Nation with a similar message Do you believe that he and his administration deliberately tried to cover up the scale of nursing home deaths? Haha I gotcha

2:26:17 I don't have a doubt in my mind. Everything was about his public image, everything was about his political future it was not about what people needed and by the way it was about campaign contributions the nursing home industry those big hospital systems they gave him millions and millions of dollars and he went easy on them any he tried to cover up for everyone not just him but his donors And I think the investigations are going to prove this, Margaret. This was a thoroughly corrupt situation and he just needs to resign so we can actually turn the page... And look it's an optimistic time as you started out this morning It's an optimistic time We got to put the past behind us Well- And Andrew Cuomo can't lead us into the future What? We've got people in state ready to reopen but we need to get him out of the way to do it Now CBS does that while ABC is blowing Joe

CHAPTER 47 / 62 Discussion

Frank Giustra and the "New Clintons"

Canadian billionaire Frank Giustra, known for his involvement in the Uranium One deal and the Clinton Foundation, is reportedly positioning Prince Harry and Meghan Markle as the "New Clintons." Steve Bannon's "War Room" podcast highlighted Giustra's history as a "penny stock promoter" who uses high-profile relationships to inflate mining values. The hosts suggest the royal couple is being groomed for a similar international influence role.

frank giustra· bill clinton· prince harry· meghan markle· uranium one

2:27:10 Not a single question about it? Same week. There was that I did well this was only part of they have another part coming okay so we can't say that you know for a fact that he didn't ask something about except that he should have asked something about it when he was talking about Cuomo in the first place right they don't revisit the guy by the way let's go back to Putin, I don't think that's gonna happen either Let's go back to Putin Um, yeah. Actually I have a... What is this? Oh this is Cuomo and Clinton politicians past and present. I want you to listen to me. I'm gonna say this again. I never touched anyone inappropriately. I did not have sexual relations with that woman

2:28:12 Miss Lewinsky, I never told anybody to lie not a single time. Never They had that same pacing oh yes, it's this everything hello It's the it's what you do so what you do when you've got handed never said that You're a jerk Mm-hmm yeah That means you did I caught an interesting episode of Banyan show War Room. Jesus, the podcast thing that does gave up? Oh my god! Two episodes a day! What?! Yeah yeah he's still doing well it's two hours but it comes in as two episodes I barely listen to it A day? Yeah two hours a day That's a lot And sometimes a Saturday special we got a special! Guy can't stop talking By the way he's the number one podcast in the world The most downloaded ever

2:29:10 Bullcrap. Of course it's bull crap, hello? Banyan! But he did have a good one and I really like this is about Frank Giustra Do you remember Frank Giustra? Nope He's the Candianavian guy who gave huge anonymous... he basically bundled donations for the Clinton Foundation or the Clinton Global Initiative and in that was alleged payoff for Hillary getting the Uranium One deal done. And now Frank Giustra owns like a uranium mines and it's a whole tawdry mess

2:29:51 But Frank Joustra seems to be more important in these types of relationship with people like the Clintons than I expected. Frank Joustra, if you read Clinton Cash he's the villain and back of all of these a penny stock operator one most corrupt guys in Canada He is back at the Uranium One deal. He's the one doing all these companies flipping around next thing they got a billion dollars of value with mining rights somewhere. He has a complete promoter stock promoter penny stock promoters up in Vancouver which is the Dodge City of capital markets it turns out that they're at his he's the billionaire whose a place she's hanging out with archie in in uh... in not in vancouver this guy is the clinton can the clinton foundation to use their flair bill clinton of africa promising guys billion dollars here we'll put all those money and nothing materialize total promoter got the clinton's wrapped around the axle on the clinton foundation clinton global initiatives now he's got his hooks into the hewitts

2:30:49 They're the new Clintons. They're the new, the New Clintons! Well, Harry and Meghan... He's saying Hewitts because that's his real father's name James Hewitt? Yeah The major Hewitt who was Harry's real dad Oh, you mean that is the... yeah okay well That's kind of obscure So Harry and Meghan will be the New Clintons if this continues with the Joostra Cash infusion And him promoting them on the international stage Be on the lookout for it. That could be interesting not quite as interesting as Hillary who could do a deal with the Russians these two can't do anything Well, that's true You know she could learn a lot now let's just talk briefly about Atlanta you don't have any clips on that by any chance to you I had a clip I'd rather okay I'd rather put it off and talk about get some other stuff out of the way

Climate Change Special and "100% Human Responsibility"

The hosts tease an upcoming two-hour special on climate change featuring a curated archive of clips. One featured clip includes a climate scientist claiming that humans are "over 100% responsible" for current global warming. They discuss using the "Everything" search tool to navigate their 14-year archive of "poignant or stupid" media clips on the subject.

climate change· global warming· everything search tool· climate science

2:31:48 Okay, but what do you want to talk about? I just had some feedback from one of our Asian producers Oh, well let's play that and then I can it's just reading. It's not a playback You want me to hold it until yeah, I think you should hold it because we there are some interesting aspects to this So Sunday will actually plan a segment okay Hey wing may thanks for sending that in it'll never get read the segments never gonna happen This is the no agenda curse which you've just witnessed Okay, that's good. I will make a note! I wanted to promote the fact that I'm two-thirds of the way done with this special that we'll be running during our hiatus...our 2 days off Oh wait so i don't have to do one? You don't have to do one but if you don't do one then were going to play your stories Is it any good? Oh its killer let me give you some examples

2:32:49 I want to tease it. It's going to be in a complete two hours plus on climate change Okay with just nothing but clips Wow, and I have a cup I have a couple of examples Of the kinds of clips will beginning this is now we're gonna roll this out first This is gonna be our first thing should be first yeah okay cuz we're taking two shows off everybody I know it's gonna be rough I know it's going to be hard, but there will be top-notch entertainment for you on those two shows that we take off our first time in 15 months. I have discovered... We have so many clips on climate change and they're and i haven't had actually cut some calls because they weren't interesting as most of these are these are very either interesting funny poignant or stupid

2:33:38 It's loaded, loaded. But let's play a couple of examples and these are just like less than a minute out of the whole segments. This is the arrogant climate scientist. This is a climate scientist she's a scientist and she's being discussing science about the science of the climate, the science here we go geologic history, and even if the contribution we're making is just the one straw that breaks the camel's back isn't that enough to get you want to curtail our behavior? I think that's actually a really good question. I'm glad you asked it because people keep telling climate scientists like oh the climates always changed and were like we know we told you that We are essentially the people who study that What percentage of the warming right now are humans responsible for

2:34:31 Over a hundred percent. Now was my complete OCD categorization of clips on the archive disc any help? I'm not even going to mention it, but I have a new search tool and i use it and you did... It wasn't the categorization as much as it was the search tool in keywords What's this search tool I think it's a thing called everything. Oh, that's the one we talked about on the show That's what I use now this is what i always use It's stunning! It's the best! It's stunning yeah but this woman she's a scientist and she says just out of the blue humans are over 100%

Solar Cycle 25 and Ham Radio Science

The latest issue of QST magazine features "Solar Cycle 25," signaling an increase in sunspot activity that will improve long-distance ham radio communication for the next seven to eleven years. The hosts contrast this "actual science" with the alarmist rhetoric of climate change, noting that solar cycles have a profound impact on the Earth's atmosphere and radio propagation.

solar cycle 25· ham radio· qst magazine· sunspots· aurora

2:35:16 Over a hundred percent responsible. Oh my what kind of a scientist would say something like that? Okay, oh yeah we're 110% you know I'm a hundred and ten percent sure all right this kind of thing that's not science That's stupid All right, that's one example just many Just as an aside um i got the new QST magazine You probably don't you don't support to support the ARL do you The Ham Radio Organization No, so I intend to once it's okay. So I get the message I get one magazine It's monthly and its QR T Q R Zed qrt whatever it is It's that was QST QS t now. I don't know its ham radio manager and the cover of it is a huge Sun fireball when it says

2:36:10 Solar cycle 25 is here. It's saw this now So you send it around what's interesting is one of the first comments by the way That's why we're gonna see things change because now, you know We're at the bottom and then the Sun spot activity is about to increase and this makes ham radio operators very happy. It'll last about seven years 11 really from start to end The first comment I got Yeah, I think my dad has some of those old magazines laying around Like this like you know and honestly it looks when you see the wording and that cover saw it I saw it kind of looks like oh man. It's like something to 30 pop your mechanics And I'm like yeah That's actual science but okay whatever yeah Aurora watchers love this love this the solar cycle too all right more

George Soros on Global Warming as an Economic Motor

A 2008 clip of George Soros describes global warming as the "new motor" of the world economy, replacing American consumerism. Soros argued that massive investment in green technology and rewiring houses would be "painful" but necessary for survival. The hosts point out that the current "Green New Deal" policies are the realization of Soros's decade-old economic blueprint.

george soros· global warming· infrastructure· green technology· 2008

2:37:03 Well, okay. I got two more that okay good another tease we like it a tease this is Soros on this is from 2008 And this is Soros. They brought Soros on to talk about global climate change, global warming... This is 2008 and he just kind of did it. This what we're living through now because of this guy's play. So let's leave them something to think about as they go home. Let them go home and say Mr. Soros said here are three things we can do simply one work on a better world order where we work together to resolve problems that confront humanity, like global warming. And I think that dealing with global warming will require a lot of investment You see for the last 25 years

2:37:52 Nice economy the motor of the world economy that has been driving it was consumption by the American consumer Who's been spending more than he has been saving? All right, all right Then he's been producing so that Motor is now switched off. It's finished its run out of Can't continue you need a new motor and And we have a big problem, global warming requires big investment and that could be the motor of the world economy in the years to come. Putting more money in building infrastructure converting green technology?

2:38:35 building an electricity grid, saving on energy rewiring the houses adjusting your lifestyle where energy is got to cost more until you introduce those new things so it will be painful but at least we will survive and not cook Wow, that's good gosh Golly golly. Golly it's all in there also like it's got to be painful It's almost like dr.. Bill with a shot well for some people be super painful But we're just gonna rewire your house wow Well you can add this one to the mix This is not a clip that we originally played in 2018 but the clip crusader

CHAPTER 51 / 62 Discussion

Bill Gates, Synthetic Beef, and "Cattle-lytic" Converters

Bill Gates recently advocated for rich nations to move to "100% synthetic beef" to reach zero emissions. The hosts joke about an alternative "exit strategy" involving "bovine catalytic converters" to manage cow methane. A listener-suggested pun, "Cattle-lytic Converters," is proposed as a potential business venture to save the beef industry from climate regulations.

bill gates· synthetic beef· methane· cows· platinum

2:39:28 Neil Jones threw it into my bag for the show this morning. This is Bill Gates on CBS Evening News in February of 2018. But I read in one of the interviews you gave him, in the last week or two was just published, he said rich nations should move to 100% synthetic beef Yeah, unless we can make the cow zero emission which I'm not sure we can. We do need to get rid of those emissions and it's not going to happen overnight the scale up and innovation still required there is quite large but yes

2:40:04 Zero is a very demanding number and it doesn't allow you to say, well all but that 6% that comes from cows. And I thought this was interesting because it does present yet another opportunity for an exit for us which we didn't catch in 2018 bovine catalytic converters Oh yes stick them up the cow's butt Yes! Yes Yeah they would jack-up the platinum price So they could do a little pre-investment in platinum futures? Why does the... tell me about platinum. Oh, platinum is the catalytic converters that's what the mechanism makes it work. Okay can we just use the word catalytic you have to have a catalyst and platinum is the catalyst

2:40:51 most of these. So maybe just a platinum tube we can shove in the cow's butt? Shove a platinum tube up a cow's butt and all the millions, I don't know maybe over a billion cows out there, I mean the platinum is going to be at a premium for sure. Hmm yeah i'm liking this I'm liking this. I think we'll go with that. I got my last clip, my last teaser clip. Oh wait! It's the catalytic converter. Oh, oh hold on a minute. Cat-alytic converter? You get that from the chat. Yeah no i got it from a troll. The troll is um dust in...dust in the wind. Catalytic

2:41:35 Converted. Cattle! Cattle it again, yeah that's... I'm liking it That's dynamite We can do what we started get a web page immediately Okay this is the last one I'm gonna play I expect a website by the time the show was over Okay now this is 2017 clip This is Justin Trudeau telling it like it is Okay Let me be very blunt about this. Coal represents perhaps the greatest challenge to Canada or to the world not meeting its climate change targets unless we reduce coal consumption, We are not going to be able to create catastrophic global warming

CHAPTER 52 / 62 Discussion

Justin Trudeau's "Catastrophic Global Warming" Gaffe

A 2017 clip features Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau stating that unless coal consumption is reduced, "we are not going to be able to create catastrophic global warming." The hosts highlight this as a classic Freudian slip. They announce that during their upcoming two-day hiatus, they will air a "Best of" mix of end-of-show songs and climate deconstruction.

justin trudeau· coal· global warming· gaffe· canada

2:42:24 Now, how do you put that in the mix so people don't miss it? I mean do you repeat that? No. That's so good! Believe me it works It's just one clip after another clip after another clip and... ...it's a pace-and-flow thing And this goes on for two hours We'll of course break it up in the middle ourselves See what I wanted to do is I wanted to do a best of That is all of The End Of Show songs since COVID started So really the last year more or less Well, why don't you do that? I think it's gonna be good because there's a lot of these search engines we've got we can put these together pretty quickly faster than somebody outside can do just using Once you do that. I'll do this and that's what will run at the two We'll put your stories into Backup emergency. We do need one in the cannon as an emergency is that one any good my stories Yeah, it's good. Oh Geez, that's like like a woman saying fine

2:43:21 It's fine. He got a good personality. Yeah, okay? Got it yeah No that once you do that because then we can see if I'm stories and in the in advance Yeah Because I really honestly think we should always have one Oh yeah, in case... Yeah of course. In case catastrophe strikes. It would be something like the power going out for good or who knows? There's a lot of different reasons We need a suitcase that someone knows to grab and what to do there are instructions in there if we can't do the show Void Zero could do this. That kind of like in the Netherlands. And in the UK If some of the royal family dies is it boxed with certain songs you gotta play

2:44:01 Yeah, we can have a couple guys podcast boards their own Bambro's gonna handle they'll take care of it. All right Sorted all right good Our backup plan is clearly done So that was it those are good now you had one more you said the point those are the ones that yeah There's other ones I mean there's this one here. I do have one more than but I don't, this one is... where is this one? I think it may have bumped already. Oh! This was what I'm working on getting a fact check for because this is bull crap and there's counter clips that are also in this thing that say its bull crap too but I'm going to say its bull crap cause' this guy claiming nobody lives in Florida because they won't give you insurance

2:44:48 This is the one of the... this setup, by the way. This whole two hours plus will have both sides of the debate and one side is hysteric and other at one side's reasonable not that that I have any bias myself, but listen to this fact check. This is from 2014. 20 people were hurt overnight too seriously when a South African Airways jetliner hit severe turbulence on its way to Hong Kong. One passenger's head put a hole in the overhead vent on the Airbus A340. This is not the clip! Fact-check CBS? Is it wrong? I think this is a misclip

2:45:28 It says, uh... No I know what it says and i think you're playing the clip. It says to play and that's the one I'm talking about but this is not- But I want to finish it now! I do too! That's the joke of it On the Airbus A340 the turbulence happened without warning many passengers were sleeping Turbulence is caused when two air masses move against each other. One British study predicts that this kind of turbulence will increase significantly in the future because of climate change." And her head is gone! Yeah, that's a good one too though I like that one That's a good but I don't remember putting it into the mix so far I'm gonna go back and dig that one up Uh-oh

2:46:07 Wow. Believe me, there's so much that we've accumulated on this show for... you know we're doing the show into the 14th year or into the 13th We have so much material on certain topics in global warming. One of them, both sides is pro and con it's a balanced report it should win at Pulitzer I agree or P-body minimum minimum a Webby an Ambi So we will... And then Adam does his song mix, which I think he can probably crank out. Oh that's Ami all the way. Ambie. Ambie. And so we'll have a couple of Dynamite shows that may actually be better than our normal show. Oh! I don't know about that but it was possible. It's quite possible. Wow okay. I want to just do two quick OTG remarks

CHAPTER 53 / 62 Discussion

Google Nest Sleep Sensing and NextCloud Open Source

Google's new Nest device features "sleep sensing" technology that monitors breathing, coughing, and snoring without a camera. The hosts warn against this domestic surveillance and recommend "NextCloud" as a private, open-source alternative for calendars, contacts, and file management. They highlight "OnlyOffice" as a viable open-source fork for productivity suites.

google nest· nextcloud· onlyoffice· open source· privacy

2:47:13 something you should stay away from and something I'd like to recommend. So the first is Google's Nest, the next version of the nest will be able to do the following it's called sleep sensing and it will monitor the breathing and movement of a person sleeping near the screen without a camera or without needing to wear device in bed And it detects disturbances such as coughing and snoring, light and temperature changes. And this will be sold to you as something great because Google's making sure you have a healthy night sleep but I'm sure I don't have to tell you why you don't want this in your home

2:47:59 And the next thing is I want to advocate and I started using just small pieces of this particular open source package when I got the no agenda phone as I was looking to completely remove myself for calendar and contacts. In fact, contacts I think was still coming from Google and calendar was Apple iCal and I found NextCloud And I've now completely integrated NextCloud into my life and it is a dynamite product. And this is a suite, it even has an Office widget in there called... Yeah, I had to ask you to remind me what that was because I still haven't looked at the Office Suite clone It's called OnlyOffice

2:48:51 And I would be very interested in this looks like a tremendous project. It's an open source project. Yeah, that's the fork. It's a fork actually yeah and so what I have is now file is file management is really very well done That's the main crux of the whole thing But because it's open source you can add new people can make these additional functionality So of course photos The email client and I have Rainloop is what I've chosen, is a really good email client. I love a lightweight web-based email client and what's so great about it is that it is talking to your mail server through IMAP and its pre caching stuff before you hit it with the browser

2:49:37 So, you know it's very very fast and has keyboard shortcuts. Contacts calendar audio player notes I use the notes a lot tasks as well that's kind of like an outliner. It tons of stuff it's free you can run it on an extra machine you have at home but even getting like 500 gigabytes on a cloud server with your own instance and domain name is I think 10 bucks a month. And you want to share file someone just drag-and-drop, you get the link right away and there's no spy it's open source and even so it's endless very interesting product and I recommend it! I think everyone should give it a shot at many places you can try free account

CHAPTER 54 / 62 Discussion

Fort Worth Civilian Response Units and Police Defunding

Following the "defund the police" movement in cities like Portland, Fort Worth has graduated its first class of "Civilian Response Units." These unarmed civilians will respond to non-violent calls such as abandoned cars and credit card fraud. The hosts express concern that sending social workers to crime scenes will leave victims feeling unprotected and traumatized.

fort worth· texas· portland· police defunding· civilian response unit

2:50:31 For a while open cloud comm I believe oh, yeah are they making the day sell setups? It's it just I have. I'm just starting to explain this is and okay And then I'll just end with this again when I see Glenn Greenwald man It seems like all he's doing these days which is its becoming boring to me and I'm a green walled fan I enjoy it. It's all about the media and who's kicking who off of Twitter, and this and that, and Silicon Valley in big tech... And if i could just go to every person and shake them and slap them in the face they snap out of it click here! Go to an alternative bit shoot. I see video views on bitshoot of hundreds of thousands

2:51:20 You know, there's alternatives. You don't need to be in these godforsaken hellholes that are rotting your brain like the drug they are! But this will be my swan song... No one cares Well they're all getting shots around you Ugh Yes I've- finally i'll have freedom Hmm. I love that, by the way. It makes me kind of sad. Hey you sent me a text message which i didn't quite understand yesterday. I did? Yeah! You sent me a text message about Portland having to rehire police after the defunding of the police yeah it was that something they have to hire on an emergency basis because murders have gone up two thousand percent after they defunded the police yeah

2:52:12 Oh, wow. How's that working? That defund and I was just wondering why you texted me that you never text me. I don't know what I what I I don't know what I would...I don't know okay I have no idea all right it doesn't matter um i do have a follow-up story to that though uh as Fort Worth uh that's you know the Dallas Forth Worth area I'm not sure if they let me just check did Fort Worth defund the police let me see I bet they did in Fort Worth. Dallas and Fort Worth, man. Defunding Texas... It looks like they had proposals it may not have happened but it doesn't matter because they have taken the advice to heart you know we need to have people social workers who go and do the police work You know, it makes no sense to send a cop with a big scary gun and the flashy lights We need to send people who can help resolve

2:53:11 and can help do this, you know civilians basically. And here's a report. Well if you call 911 to report a crime in Fort Worth the civilian may soon respond instead of a police officer but only for certain nonviolent calls as part of a brand new civilian response unit. The first class graduates tomorrow morning, and tonight Scott Gordon takes a closer look at how the new program will work inside the Fort Worth Police Academy. The latest class of recruits is taking a final exam before graduating but they won't become police officers there civilians who won't drive squad cars but mark cars like this one respond to certain low risk police calls like abandoned cars burglaries and credit card fraud now we

2:53:55 one arm and we don't have, you know, we're not gonna have no guns or anything like that. But we here to give the best, our knowledge to provide the best service." Like her eight classmates Vanessa Clementino just finished six weeks of training in how to take basic police reports. I really appreciate these people and i find it quite patriotic that they want to do this work but holy crap are you kidding me for robberies? You're going to send that when you've been robbed?! You want a fucking cop there making you feel better Yeah, there is that element. Like who are you? Who are you? Some social worker that's just taking out... Oh if your traumatized here's a number to call You know that's what it's gonna be. Yeah counselors I have another there's another screwy thing this one is pretty funny not being reported yet Washington State sued for allowing military training in state parks yeah

Global Meetup Reports and the "Mike Pence" Marine

Meetup reports arrive from The Hague, where protesters dodged "corona restrictions," and Charleston, South Carolina. A recording from a meetup in Castroville, Texas, features a retired Marine whose voice bears a striking resemblance to former Vice President Mike Pence. The Marine delivers a passionate speech about the founding fathers and the danger of "living as slaves."

the hague· netherlands· charleston· castroville· mike pence

3:10:39 very handsome ring with some sealing wax because it is a signet ring and an official certification of authenticity. And thank you very much for supporting No Agenda, whether those who would like to be in this illustrious list, dvorak.org slash NA. We got a couple of meetup reports. This is where no agenda producers gather together and we have one written report from the 14th of March, and this is from Ruthie the Freedom Warrior who was at the Mali Felt

3:11:22 That's where the protest took place, one of the protests in The Netherlands. And they did a meetup! Hey guys Dame of the Doomsday Deniers encouraged me to give a boots on the ground report to you boys of the events last Sunday Inspired by Adams enthusiasm just start a meet up I did just that Seeing as the corona restrictions are tight here in Holland not being able to have more than one visitor per day Not being able to go outside with more than 1 person Evening clock, thats a curfew etc...I thought the perfect place is at a protest What could possibly go wrong? I quickly realized that my naive intentions could be used against me to frame me for organizing the whole protest out of fear of legal persecution, which there is recent precedent for here in Holland. Took the meeting offline better safe than sorry fighting for freedom while meeting new Gitmo friends is great but there are limits

3:12:13 Now, she does say a little bit about the Sunday protests especially important seeing as we're having elections this week in the Netherlands. Yes the results are in seems like the European Union has their shills getting all the votes for the EU parties armed with my NA sign and heart balloon I headed off to The Hague epicenter of international injustice and national oppression to make a stand then see who would join my alternative meetup But the protests started at 2 o'clock. My smoking-hot husband and I arrived just short of 1 o'clock, the Molliefelt was already locked down 200 protesters already on the field so that cops would not let anyone else in because 200 was the limit you can have twenty thousand if not more at this field meanwhile there was a steady influx people from all sides to protest at the Molliefeld anyway it's very long story but i did put into the show notes

3:13:02 She did not get beaten up, which is the good news. But that was a there was a semi-clandestine meetup in The Hague and there was a mini meetup of a complete different structure in Charleston. Hey guys it's Dame Jennifer in beautiful Charleston South Carolina and you will never believe who's here with me! Anyway It's DC girl on the road visiting all my favorite producers in the morning. This is roundy and While I would like to have John C Dvorak's love child, I am alas infertile So i'm gonna pass it over to my main man Jason Hey its jason and damnit we've been invaded by the yankees again! In the morning

3:13:49 Yes, libations were consumed no doubt. Very good. Dame Jennifer there. I would say... They're having some fun. Bunch of drunks! Heyyyy But this is what's good you know you can get drunk and not be worried You're gonna say something that's gonna piss people off That's what those in fact that's what meetups are best for along with meeting other people Castroville in the morning John Adam checking in from Castroville, Texas where we're making friends and killing bottles successfully Mmm hit two people in the mouth today. Hey this is San Antonio Beach in the morning Thanks for shrinking my amygdala See

3:14:32 I just want to say thank you for your bravery and courage. This is Judy from Burney, Texas All I gotta say is that I love ya John! As an older gentleman as a United States Marine as a patriot who loves his country these darkest times have been seen before If the founding fathers had cowered as I see my fellow citizens doing We would not have a nation today. This is not the time for cowardice this is the time for bold action Take that ax up to clip or we will that guy Call right in do something sounds exactly like Mike Pence Not first I thought he was trying to do a Mike Pence No, and then I noticed it. I think he naturally sounds like Mike Pence. We could have a lot of fun with that

3:15:31 He's saying something pretty... No, I like what he is saying too but i'm just saying that I was distracted by the fact that he sounds like Mike Pence. Okay! Sorry That's alright we'll just play him out here As an older gentleman as a United States Marine as a patriot who loves his country these darkest times have been seen before If the founding fathers had cowered as I see my fellow citizens doing, we would not have a nation today. This is not the time for cowardice this is the time for bold action take that action or we will all live as slaves

CHAPTER 60 / 62 Discussion

Jen Psaki's "Final Solution" Gaffe and Border Messaging

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki accidentally used the phrase "final solution" while discussing FEMA's role at the border with Fox News reporter Peter Doocy. Additionally, border ambassador Roberta Jacobson mistakenly told a Spanish-speaking audience that the "border is not closed." The hosts mock these high-level communication failures and the "mixed messages" being sent to migrants.

jen psaki· peter doocy· final solution· roberta jacobson· kamala harris

3:21:41 Gavin Newsom clip so we can catch up with what he's up to. Quick hit, Newsom Yeah this is the governor of California on the recall tip In California organizers seeking to recall Governor Gavin Newsom face a deadline today To submit 1.5 million petition signatures to get their proposal on the ballot The Democratic governor's popularity has fallen as some Californians remain outraged over his handling of the pandemic Man, she's breathless in that. What did you hear? She was like trying to catch her breath. Listen to that! Face a deadline today... Those look nicer hair... ...to submit. No but listen. Listen to it.

3:22:20 Gavin Newsom faced a deadline today to submit 1.5 million petition signatures to get their proposal on the ballot Democratic governor's popularity has fallen as some Californians are being outraged over his handling of the pandemic She also smacks her lips once in awhile She dyed her hair Gen Saki Red Oh, well that's her problem I have a Saki clip that's kind of funny. It's about the immigration crisis at the border! We need a solution! Now this is only for you historical producers, for you history buffs who will get the joke. As Peter Doocy of Fox asked Jen Psaki what the solution is... Does FEMA's arrival at the border mean that the administration feels what is happening down at the border? It's a disaster! I know that we always get into the fun of labels around here but I would say our focus is on solutions and this is one of the steps that the president felt would help

3:23:21 not become a final solution, but help expedite processing. Help ensure that... It's not the final solution! Now we know what the final solution is. Damn man You think you wouldn't even have that in your- That phrase would be like blacked out of your brain if you were public spokesperson Yeah spokesholes should NOT Should NOT be advocating for genocide! It's like Oh my goodness! Yeah, it's funny. I got one this one was never corrected This is the borders is under borders open in Spanish Mixed messages at the Texas Mexico border the administration's point woman for the border ambassador Roberta Jacobson said it in English The border is not open but at first in Spanish she mistakenly said the opposite that the border is not closed Jacobson said smugglers are spreading misinformation

3:24:21 But she acknowledged Joe Biden's election may have sent a signal to those who would come north. Surges tend to respond to hope She urged migrants not to try a journey she called dangerous, at least not now We will have legal processes for people in the future Stephen Portnoy CBS News She sounds exactly like Kamala Harris Yes! You're right So this must be a milieu thing because people start selling the sense cause they're hanging out with each other. I guess, but she said the thing in Spanish. Yeah the borders are open come on up and it blames Biden and then she never corrected the Spanish miss or the misstatement why would you do it in English? But you wouldn't do it as Spanish all she's thinking of is the final solution so which he's not allowed to talk about it's not the final so that's not the final thing we got going on in the background

Janet Yellen on Debt Sustainability and 2007 Parallels

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen stated that she is "getting sleep" despite the national debt exceeding GDP, citing low interest rates as a structural trend. She compared the current debt burden to 2007, a year the hosts point out immediately preceded the 2008 financial crash. They speculate that Yellen may be signaling an upcoming market "bubble" pop to the "cognoscenti."

janet yellen· federal reserve· national debt· 2007· interest rates

3:25:19 What is going on in the background God knows why are you hearing something? No And this is just random and I was paying attention to it because I'm interested in the Federal Reserve Board or I guess Jay Powell decided not to Raise interest rates. Although there wasn't some years and years. Yeah, I know well here's Yellen She is the Secretary of the Treasury. And I just thought it was good to hear what her thoughts were because I think Powell got all the play but Yellen not so much Back in 2017 you testified that long-term budget reductions should keep people awake at night The situation is worse now, federal debt expected to exceed GDP for the first time since World War II So are you getting any sleep?

3:26:15 I am getting sleep. My views have changed somewhat about fiscal sustainability, in part because what we've seen all around the world is a trend toward very low interest rates. Interest rates in the United States are much lower than they were in past decades and you see that in all developed countries around the world and it reflects structural trends that are not going to disappear soon And I think about, when I think about the burden of debt, I think about it mainly in terms of the interest payments that the government needs to pay on those, on that debt. And in spite of the fact that the debt has increased substantially, interest payments relative to this year, to the size of the economy have remained quite low no higher than they were back in 2007 but

3:27:11 Now, I wonder if she's okay. She rests peacefully and she says really it's kind of like 2007 wasn't that like the year that we should have known 2008 was coming? Well some people knew Right, but if she's saying on it's cool. It's just like 2007 the first thing that I don't know I have no idea what i'm talking about other than I hear this and I think but it's just like 2007 hello And she's talking about structural trends Like does that mean we're gonna have a crash? We had a real estate bubble Yeah right But don't we have yes Don't we have an obscure way of putting it if That's no that's what that's the first thing Well we definitely have a stock bubble going on in a bitcoin bubble and uh there's a number of bubbles

3:27:55 whether or not it could be a base, a new base. That's the problem with the stock market. It could be a new base for our big run up where it really goes flying? Yeah Or it could be a bubble. We're sitting on a bubble, so you don't know. Okay well that's my point! It's like when you say that, I feel good. Well she was the wrong year for her to pick if she'd said 2005... If she had set 2005 as the end it would have been the same because I don't think it changed between 2005 and 2007 that much right? So she could have said 2005 and then just passed it off yeah

3:28:31 But I was thinking as I was hearing that because i didn't hear this before That she was gonna say something like 1999 or 2001. This is what struck me as so odd why pick 2007? Like dumb year, I couldn't help it Maybe it's a hidden message we don't know As we know people talk in codes We do sometimes oh yeah amongst but we only know amongst ourselves We don't know what other people's codes are that's the problem with 33 Well I think she's talking about a bubble. She's giving the wink-wink nudge-nudge to all knowing? Why not? The cognoscenti? The illuminati, the boule baby! It's all of those people! Alright let's get out of here. Could be because there have been a number of guys that have come out and said they were having a crash in April In April... alright

3:29:24 Don't think Bitcoin is a bubble, but that's my personal opinion. Well you could think whatever you want I don't make any difference. I know just saying it I could think plus It doesn't make any difference to make any different bubble it's a bubble if it's not as bad You know it's just deep you don't know until pops And then the pus comes out That's my line All right, everybody we will return on Sunday bring you another episode of your weekly media deconstruction of the m5m
