00:00 The pretty girls are inside. Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak. It's Thursday, June 3rd, 2021. This is your award-winning Gimbo Nation Media Assassination Episode 1352. This is no agenda. Spiking the protein 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 I sit here waiting for the Zephyr, I'm John C. DeVorek. It's Crackpot and Buzzkill! In the morning! As we await the Zephyr, perhaps you can give us a 3x3 report. Did you watch anything this morning? Yes, I did. And now it's time for 3x3! Oh, sorry, I was doing your jingle. No, no, just do the jingle as I get the envelope from my back. Ah, the envelope. And now it's time for 3x3!
00:51 Experiment by JC Dean. Comparing stories from ABC's. The never-ending 3x3. That's right everybody, it's the never-ending 3x3. What is important today in the news? John C. Dvorak does it so you don't have to. Well ABC had a, starting with them, they had a huge promotion for the movie Thor Love and Thunder. Hmm, is it a Disney movie by any chance? at Marvel. Yes, ladies and gentlemen. That's why it's news on NBC. And they went through all these tweets about how good the movie is going to be. Nobody's seen it. That was their promotion? Everyone's saying, oh, it's going to be great. Can't wait. It's going to rock. And then they kind of went to a thing about Obama showing up at a Pee-wee football thing in Chicago and lecturing the kids. I'm not quite sure what that was about. They had to get their
01:50 Daddy get the race thing and because everybody else didn't know was he was he telling the kids to get their shot? Hey kids, you know, I didn't I had to switch channels Not just shots kids blew it eight-year-olds. Yeah, I get your shot. So then NBC, I cut to NBC and they had something about first some children in a shootout with those evil police. Oh yeah, the evil cops, yes. Some phony baloney promotion for a summer camp where all the girls at the summer camp, it was a girls' summer camp, all dancing and prancing. And then the big story which was about Princess Diane's iconic gown going into some new museum somewhere. Yeah, really riveting.
02:39 Was there... Sorry? You had a question? Oh no, I was just going to ask if anyone was talking about actual news today on the morning shows. I mean anything about life-or-death situations or you know I don't know pandemic, scamdemic, cyber pandemic, any of this? Any news? No. No, okay. So we're keeping people happy. I don't know why you even asked that question. We're keeping people happy. CBS meanwhile had Clint Smith reading, doing a reading as you would like in some sort of a, you know, a bookstore where the author's up there reading from his book. So he's up there reading from his book, word for word from his book. And it's a new book about racism. It's different. No, but I never heard of the topic before this guy. It's racism. It must be a riveting book.
03:33 Yeah, it was just it was something to listen to and so then they interviewed him and I have to assume that CBS had some connection to the publishing company. Yeah, what can I say? Yeah. Wow. So that was it. That was the extraordinary morning rundown. The morning roundup. So no one mentioned anything about, I don't know, some emails that were recently discovered? No. Hmm, that's strange because usually where you should mention him whenever buzz whenever BuzzFeed Publishes something usually the mainstream media jumps all over it last time. They did that was what was that? Oh, yes the steel report the Yeah, so that was the dossier report is that reason? Yes the the steel the dossier the the dossier. Yeah, the PP the PP Well, this doesn't have anything to a Trump necessarily. So man, I
